Hello to you listening in Fremont, California!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.In college I was taught by lay faculty and Benedictine monks.  Today I follow Joan Chittister, an American Benedictine nun, theologian, author, and speaker who is known for being an outspoken advocate of justice, peace and equality focusing on the empowerment of women.In her book, The Monastic Heart - 50 Simple Practices for a Contemplative and Fulfilling Life, Chittister writes, “A spirituality of work is that process by which you finally come to know that your work is God's work, unfinished by God because God meant it to be finished by you.” I say my work is "helping women shape and share their story by discovering: Who am I? What's my why or work? How do I do my work differently?"But the notion of “spirituality of work” puts a different spin on things. Is this truly my work? If so, how is it meant to be finished by me?Story Prompt: What's your work and how will you finish it? Write that story! And tell it out loud!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us!

On a crisp September morning, the Northern Shenandoah Valley came alive with the spirit of service. Nearly a thousand volunteers donned bright orange t-shirts and fanned out across five counties and the city of Winchester for United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley's annual Day of Caring—a day dedicated to giving back, building connections, and strengthening the fabric of the community. Janet Michael, host of “The Valley Today” and board chair for United Way of Northern Shenandoah Valley, served as both guide and storyteller for this special episode, recorded live as she visited project sites bustling with activity. “It is a day when the entire community comes together to serve local nonprofits and residents,” Janet explained, her pride evident as she described the scale of the effort. Painting Hope at Edgehill Recovery Center At the Edgehill Recovery Center, the air was thick with the scent of fresh paint and the hum of teamwork. Janet spoke with Elizabeth, an equity production supervisor at Navy Federal Credit Union, who was rolling paint alongside her team. “It's very competitive to get into,” Elizabeth laughed, describing how quickly volunteer slots filled up. For her, the Day of Caring was not just about giving back, but also about building camaraderie within her team. “It's awesome to be able to build our community while helping our community,” she said. Transforming Evans Home for Children The next stop was Evans Home for Children, where Executive Director Amy Rice marveled at the sea of volunteers tackling landscaping and maintenance projects. “As much as we are a little nonprofit, we have five acres in the middle of Winchester—that can be a lot to maintain and manage,” Amy shared. The Day of Caring, she explained, accomplishes in a single day what would otherwise take her small staff a year or more. “It's a safety and security issue to make sure that we are good with our licensing, that we are safe for the children to be here. The families feel safe placing their children with us. That's really, really important to us.” Amy was quick to credit her program director, LaMishia Allen, for orchestrating the day's logistics and ensuring everything ran smoothly. She also encouraged listeners to reach out year-round, noting that the need for volunteers and donations never ends. A Legacy of Service at Fremont Street Nursery At Fremont Street Nursery, the city's oldest licensed childcare center, Executive Director Freda Roberson beamed as she described the impact of the Day of Caring. “To see the amazing hardworking volunteers come out—it not only helps Fremont, but it also betters our community,” she said. Volunteers from Navy Federal painted playhouses, washed windows, while Tolley Dental facilitated dental exams for 60 children. “Out of the 60 children, only two had a cavity,” Freda reported, highlighting the tangible benefits of the day's work. Revitalizing Old Town Winchester The Day of Caring wasn't limited to traditional nonprofits. In Old Town Winchester, volunteers from Valley Health and the Friends of Old Town took a “tourist perspective” to identify ways to improve the downtown experience. “We got to hear some of the ideas that were on the table and give feedback from our perspective, which I think was a great project,” said Jason Craig, Director of Community Health for Valley Health. The group discussed everything from murals and pedestrian safety to access to fresh food and physical activity, underscoring the broad reach of community health. Personal Connections and Lasting Impact Throughout the day, Janet met volunteers like John and Billy from Warfel Construction, who helped residents at Winchester House with cleaning tasks. “It was great to catch up with them and learn their story too,” John reflected, noting the personal connections forged through service. At the Our Health campus, a team from Edward Jones wrote thank-you notes and made calls for the Alzheimer's Association, brightening the days of volunteers and participants. “We're actually hearing stories of families that have been impacted by Alzheimer's,” said Shalini Mickos, emphasizing the emotional resonance of their work. Jodi Young, Executive Director of Healthy Families Northern Shenandoah Valley, showed off baskets filled with diapers and baby supplies—assembled in just two hours by a small team of volunteers. “If it was just us collecting, we'd be taking time away from the families,” she explained, grateful for the extra hands. A Call to Action As the episode drew to a close, Janet reminded listeners that the Day of Caring is not just a one-day event, but a call to ongoing engagement. “We all have something to give. For some it's money. For others, it's time and skills, and for all of us, it's being willing to listen to the struggles that someone is having, be a little more understanding, and be a little more open-minded,” she said. The Day of Caring stands as a testament to what can be achieved when a community unites in service. Whether painting walls, planting flowers, or simply offering a kind word, every act of caring helps build a stronger, safer, and more compassionate place to call home. For more information on how to get involved, visit United Way NSV's website or reach out to local nonprofits—because, as Janet put it, “United is the way to spark change.”

In August 1861, General John C. Fremont—once America's most famous explorer and the Republican Party's first presidential nominee—issued an unauthorized order freeing all slaves in Missouri.

In August 1861, General John C. Fremont—once America's most famous explorer and the Republican Party's first presidential nominee—issued an unauthorized order freeing all slaves in Missouri. President Lincoln swiftly revoked it, fearing the decision would drive crucial border states into Confederate hands. The clash between these two men revealed a fundamental tension: Fremont operated on moral urgency and personal instinct, while Lincoln worked within constitutional constraints and political reality. Fremont's military career never recovered from the confrontation.Yet sixteen months later, Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation employed the exact legal framework Fremont had pioneered: military necessity as commander-in-chief during wartime. Historian and journalist John Bicknell joins us to explore how this forgotten general's bold gambit forced critical conversations about slavery's role in the war effort and ultimately shaped the constitutional pathway to emancipation. The story reveals why we remember one man as the Great Emancipator while the other faded into historical obscurity—and why both were essential to America's path toward freedom.Host: Jeff SikkengaExecutive Producer: Jeremy GyptonSubscribe: https://linktr.ee/theamericanidea

UPDATE AS OF 6PM WEDS, OCT 1, 2025 - THE SEATTLE LANDMARKS PRESERVATION BOARD VOTED TO TABLE SEATTLE PARKS' REQUEST FOR A CERTIFICATE OF APPROVAL TO MAKE SIGNIFICANT CHANGES TO GAS WORKS PARK. BOARD MEMBERS WANTED MORE SPECIFICS ABOUT PARKS' PROPOSED WORK, A LONG-RANGE PLAN FOR THE PARK, AND DETAILED INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT DESIGNER RICH HAAG INTENDED FOR THE STRUCTURES IN THE PARK IN THE LONG-TERM: DECAY OR MAINTENANCE. PARKS SAYS THEY WILL BE BACK BEFORE THE BOARD IN TWO WEEKS. UPDATE VIA CASCADE OF HISTORY FACEBOOK PAGE: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1FzqBbzzRs/ On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, we present audio from the September 17, 2025 meeting of the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board. In a move that has gone largely unreported, the Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation (SPR) is seeking permission to make significant changes to the historic structures from the old gas plant that give Seattle's Gas Works Park its name and much of its character. Since 2008, several people have been injured and three have died while trespassing and climbing on the historic structures. Later today – Wednesday, October 1, 2025 – the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board seems poised to approve SPR's request for a “CERTIFICATE OF APPROVAL.” This would allow for removal of elements of the old "cracking towers" - giant, rusty pieces of equipment from the original gas plant. Gas Works Park is internationally known and is a beloved local destination on Lake Union in the city's Wallingford and Fremont neighborhoods. It was designed more than 50 years ago by the late Richard Haag. Haag was a landscape architect whose vision of preserving the industrial elements and incorporating them into the design of the park was revolutionary at the time, and it has influenced other park designs around the globe. In an emailed statement on October 1, 2025, a parks spokesperson wrote: “The Mayor's proposed 2026 budget adds $1.8 million to support safety improvements and remove certain appurtenances attached to the 'Cracking Towers' at Gas Works Park. Appurtenances have been used by trespassers and include catwalks, ladders, support framing, and select piping and valving, and pipe sections that currently extend beyond the security fencing. Improvements will also include the installation of security lighting to ‘up-light' the towers from purposefully placed fixtures around the perimeter of the towers.” As part of the process seeking approval, Seattle Parks employee David Graves made a presentation to the Landmarks Preservation Board on September 17, 2025, and the board members asked questions, and discussed the project with Landmarks Board staff. Today's meeting (Wednesday, October 1, 2025) begins at 3:30pm Pacific Time, and public comment may be made remotely online (see link below). The audio from September 17 has been lightly edited to compress periods of silence and remove a few A/V related logistical discussions. For more information about commenting in advance or as part of the October 1, 2025 meeting of the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board: https://www.seattle.gov/neighborhoods/historic-preservation/city-landmarks CASCADE OF HISTORY is broadcast LIVE most Sunday nights at 8pm Pacific Time via SPACE 101.1 FM in Seattle and gallantly streams everywhere via www.space101fm.org.

Audubon defeated Fremont Mills 40-8 after halftime adjustments, with QB Aiden Kiergaard leading the offense (about 180 rushing yards, 5-for-7 passing for ~85 yards and a touchdown). Mason Kasper and Carson Wessel also supplied key rushing contributions, while tight ends Austin Christensen and Brody Weber combined for 85 receiving yards. Defensively Audubon bent but didn’t break, making crucial red zone stops and limiting the passing game, though Fremont Mills gained significant rushing yards. Special teams struggled and need work before the postseason. Coach Birks also discussed statewide eight-man rankings and previews a critical district matchup at home vs. Glidden-Ralston.

This is what the podcast is all about. I had Tacos Cometa last night in Fremont and the food blew me away. I just had to get these guys in the studio to find out what they are about. Turns out there is a good reason they cook tacos like Michelin star chefs. It was also great meeting Kyle who was able to move from food truck to brick and mortar from the support of community.

Coach Jensen's Cobras earned a much-needed district-opening win, shutting out Eddieville-Blakesburg-Fremont 41-0 in a strong homecoming performance. The defense pitched a complete game, special teams contributed a huge kickoff return touchdown, and the offense showed signs of coming together heading into a short week and a Thursday matchup at Louisa–Muscatine.

A recently published study from the University of Oregon found that the fear of deportation declines with age among immigrants without protected status. The research is based on interviews with Mexican immigrants over the age of 50 in the California communities of Oakland, Fremont and Berkeley. The interviews were mostly conducted in 2019 and some in 2022, before the second Trump presidency.   The study found several factors that affected the fear of deportation. For example, older undocumented immigrants tend to have children who are now adults, and so family separation was less of a concern than for an immigrant with minor children. The study also found that “life course mechanisms,” such as leaving the workforce because of retirement, and the older immigrants’ own perception that their age made them less visible targets, also shaped their fear of deportation.    Joining us to discuss the implications of these findings is the study’s author, Isabel García Valdivia, an assistant professor of sociology at the University of Oregon.
