There will be two events concerning the U.S. Census 2020 at the Marin City Library, 164 Donahue St. in Marin City

The first event, “I Count, You Count, Everybody Counts – Discover Your Family’s Census Story” will be on Wednesday, Jan. 15, 2020, from 3:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.

Come to this special event to research your genealogy and find out about your family’s records.

Felecia Gaston, Performing Stars executive director, found her grandmother’s Census records from 1940 on Ancestry.com. It was important to the Gaston family then to get counted in the Census.

Marin City Library will provide free, in-library access to Ancestry.com. A USB drive giveaway and refreshments are sponsored by the Friends of Marin City Library. The first 25 adults to sign up to attend this event will receive a complimentary USB drive to save their images from Ancestry.com.

This event is a collaboration between the Marin City Library and Performing Stars.

Please call the Library at (415) 332-6158 to reserve your space.

The second event is “Marin City Counts,” a community celebration of the creative art projects created by Marin City children. It will be presented on Saturday, Jan. 18, 2020, from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. at the Marin City Library.

Marin City Counts showcases a partnership between Performing Stars and Dominican University of California to raise awareness and promote census participation by Marin City residents in preparation for the 2020 Census.

The art projects are the results of work by Dominican University interns and Bayside MLK Academy students who produced public artwork including outdoor banners, hand-painted portraits in laundry rooms and designs on garbage dumpsters during a 3-months-long after-school program.

Community partners for the “Marin City Counts” are Boys & Girls Clubs of Sonoma-Marin, Sausalito Marin School District, Marin Housing Authority, Bay Cities Refuse, Women Helping All People, and the Golden Gate Village Residents Council.

Sponsors for the “Marin City Counts” event are the TomKat Foundation, County of Marin, Bay Area Counts 2020, Main Census 2020, and Friends of the Marin City Library.

For more information, contact Felecia Gaston, Performing Stars, (415) 332-8316 or performingstars@sbcglobal.net.

Seth Curry Makes Impressive Debut with the Golden State Warriors

Seth looked comfortable in his new uniform, seamlessly fitting into the Warriors’ offensive and defensive system. He finished the night with an impressive 14 points, becoming one of the team’s top scorers for the game. Seth’s points came in a variety of ways – floaters, spot-up three-pointers, mid-range jumpers, and a handful of aggressive drives that kept the Oklahoma City Thunder defense on its heels.

Tuesday night was anything but ordinary for fans in San Francisco as Seth Curry made his highly anticipated debut as a new member of the Golden State Warriors. Seth didn’t disappoint, delivering a performance that not only showcased his scoring ability but also demonstrated his added value to the team.

At 35, the 12-year NBA veteran on Monday signed a contract to play with the Warriors for the rest of the season.

One of the most memorable moments of the evening came before Seth even scored his first points. As he checked into the game, the Chase Center erupted into applause, with fans rising to their feet to give the newest Warrior a standing ovation.

The crowd’s reaction was a testament not only to Seth’s reputation as a sharpshooter but also to the excitement he brings to the Warriors. It was clear that fans quickly embraced Seth as one of their own, eager to see what he could bring to the team’s championship aspirations.

Warriors’ superstar Steph Curry – Seth’s brother – did not play due to an injury. One could only imagine what it would be like if the Curry brothers were on the court together. Magic in the making.

Seth’s debut proved to be a turning point for the Warriors. Not only did he contribute on the scoreboard, but he also brought a sense of confidence and composure to the floor.

While their loss last night, OKC 124 – GSW 112, Seth’s impact was a game-changer and there’s more yet to come. Beyond statistics, it was clear that Seth’s presence elevated the team’s performance, giving the Warriors a new force as they look to make a deep playoff run.
