🌱At The Grounds Serves As Fire Base Camp + Last Free Summer Concert!

Hello again, everybody! I'm back with your new copy of the Roseville Daily. Come along for the most important things happening these days in town.

First, today's weather:

Partly sunny. High: 82 Low: 57.

Here are the top four stories in Roseville today:

1. Contrary to some rumors, no shots were fired during a fight at the Galleria Mall on Sunday night. According to Roseville Police, they were called to a fight among multiple people at the Mall Sunday night. During the fight, tables and chairs were knocked over. The sound of the falling furniture made some believe that shots were fired. Panicked shoppers ran into the parking lot and reported the alleged gunfire. According to CBS Sacramento "Roseville police have confirmed that no shots were fired and no weapons were recovered." (CBS Sacramento)
2. On September 9 @the Grounds in Roseville began serving as a California Department of Forestry and Fire (Cal Fire) Base Camp for fire crews battling the Mosquito Fire. Interim Chief Executive Officer Kim Summers of @the Grounds and Placer Valley Tourism said that Cal Fire will likely continue to use the facility for a couple of weeks. The Grounds is currently working on rescheduling several events that were to be held at the facility, including a race at the All American Speedway. (Gold Country Media)
3. Most of us look to Folsom Lake to see how our water supply is doing, but more and more, Roseville is relying on our groundwater for some of our drinking and other needs. Are you curious how all of this works? The city of Roseville is holding an educational class on October 22 to show you how it works and answer your questions. Per the press release "you will have the opportunity to meet with Environmental Utilities staff, learn how our groundwater wells work, participate in a blind taste-test and hear how we manage water resources in Roseville both now and into the future. Registration is not required, but requested, as we would like to gauge how many visitors we should expect. Please register here." (roseville.ca.us)
