Alongside two other local survivors, she offers practical advice on self-advocacy, emotional support, and not delaying mammograms—reminding Roseville women during Breast Cancer Awareness Month to know their bodies and prioritize screenings.
   

3. Inland surf resort approved for former farmland near Sacramento (mercurynews.com) — A large inland surf resort called Alchemy has been approved just outside Roseville in the Placer One development, bringing a five-acre surf lagoon, hotel, and sports facilities.

4. 'Is Any Of It True?': California Woman Reads Label Of Whole Foods Ranch Dressing.

5. Flock Safety's Massive Error Rate is Subjecting Innocent Drivers to Felony Stops (motorbiscuit.com) — Roseville's use of Flock Safety license plate cameras generated a stunning 71% rate of misread hotlist alerts between 2023 and 2024, but strict police verification rules prevented any false arrests.
