Good morning, Redding.

The Shasta County Sheriff's Office hosted an annual luncheon this week in Redding to honor hundreds of volunteers from search and rescue + the Citizens Volunteer Patrol.

Special recognitions went to longtime contributor Robert Zaech and Volunteer of the Year Reynaldo Gutierrez.

Twelve North State high school seniors were named Scholar-Athlete finalists after 36 applications were judged on academics, sports, and community service by Record Searchlight, Rotary Club + Seamans Family Foundation.

They will be honored at a luncheon on Thursday, May 7 and winners will receive scholarships.

Redding high school senior Kaitlyn Raftery won the Congressional Art Competition for the district.

Her painting (The Fight for Freedom) on the theme America, a 250 Year Celebration of Liberty will be displayed at the U.S. Capitol and she will visit Washington D.C. to view the exhibit.

Drivers in Redding will face delays on Forest Hills Drive from May 4 to May 10 as crews finish a water main project (serving 27 homes) and restrict one lane on Forest Hills and parts of Wimbledon Drive; traffic control and flaggers will direct vehicles during work hours.
