Troop 850 hosts open house Boy Scout Troop 850 will hold an open house at Cerro Villa Mid- dle School on Tuesday, Oct. 19 from 7 to 8 p.m. Boy Scout Troop 850 is look- ing for boys aged 10 ½ (and in the fifth grade) or 11 to 17 years old to be part of an active organiza- tion that promotes leadership de- velopment while having fun. For Scouts working on the Arrow of Light, this is an opportunity to meet several requirements for that award. The troop, founded in 1965 with 128 Eagle Scouts to its cred- it, has a well-rounded program offering not only camping expe- riences, but also high adventure outings and a leadership develop- ment seminar. Sponsored by the Rotary Club of Villa Park, the troop meets at Cer- ro Villa Middle School at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesdays, September through May. Visit the website, troop850. com, for more information. Villa Park Dam water level lowered A low level of water was re- leased from the Villa Park Dam by OC Public Works commenc- ing Monday, Sept. 27. Lowering the water level behind the dam allows the agency to inspect the structure and do any needed pre- ventative maintenance prior to storm season. Public Works’ last attempt to lower the dam’s water level in June was met with neighbor outrage, as it was nesting sea- son. Those familiar with the area feared that wildlife would be harmed. The water release was duly halted. A recent survey of the area in- dicated that the 2021 nesting sea- son is over, and county biologists report that it is now safe to dis- charge water. The water will be released into Santiago Creek through Santiago Oaks Park and on to groundwa- ter replenishment basins down- stream. Park trails and access points will remain open. Local residents enjoyed the works of Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven and Dworsky, present- ed by a string quartet under a full moon, in Villa Park, Sept. 19. Villa Park Women’s League Arts and Culture representative Sandy Bass coordinated the event in conjunction with the Pacific Symphony’s “Symphony on the go!” program. The colorful mo- bile stage allows Pacific Sympho - ny musicians to enrich communi- ties by bringing classical music to the people. The Pacific Symphony returned to the concert hall on Sept. 30. The Pacific Symphony League volunteers help sponsor many educational and outreach events for students and adults through- out the year. For information, see pacific - symphony.org.
