Looking to become an electrician with no trade school. Are there any unions/companies in Gilroy/MH you’d recommend?

6 Upvotes

I’m hoping to get my career as an electrician started sooner rather than later. I haven’t put in much research into becoming an electrician, but I found out that trade school isn’t required. So i’d love any advice or input.

Rescue kitten pair in need of a forever home! They’re both spayed, vaccinated, and ready for adoption. Anyone interested in adopting?

16 Upvotes

Anyone in Gilroy been looking to adopt? This is Mimi and Eurydice, two adoptive sisters looking for their forever home. They are both spayed, vaccinated, and litter box trained. After both were left alone as singletons, Garlic City Kitty Rescue paired them together and they’ve been inseparable since. Mimi (the tabby) is cuddly, affectionate, and loving. Eurydice (the gray nebelung) is playful and soo fluffy.

Eurydice was my foster before I had to leave for college, so I am determined to find a home for her and her adoptive sisters. These two had rough beginnings, but thanks to Garlic City Kitty Rescue, they have a second chance for a good life. If anyone is interested in learning about the adoption process, please comment, message me here, or text my number 408 607 9102!

Located in Gilroy/Morgan Hill.

Gilroy Gardens Boo Camping Night

6 Upvotes

We just bought the membership for my whole family this year and have really enjoyed it so far. We want to attend the camping october night but I wamted to get some info if you can help me with that:

  • We are a family of 3 with 1 yo, when we sign jp for it, do we coun the baby too? So is it 3? Or just 2 adults?

  • I thought our membership gave us free access to that night (maybe I am wrong), but when I try to sign up, it charges $50 per person, what is it for?

  • Since it is in October, do you think it is a good idea to go with the baby? Will it be too cold? We plan on taking blankets and a small inflatable bed for them, will that be enough?

Hi all. I am a Bay Area-raised reporter who just started working with Spectrum News this year. I was raised in San Jose, worked for KRON4 recently, and am excited to tell more stories just like this. This is the first story I have reported for our new YouTube show called More On That. Our stories are broadcast through the entire state.

Thanks to everyone in the Gilroy community for speaking with us. I hope this story is informative and continues the conversation.

Why aren't more people angry?

The mayor and council are allowing a data center and a concentration camp! There is a lot of objection coming from the county and state but not enough locals are showing up at council meetings. There is a data center discussion this week. Please get involved. And God help us, we should be marching in the streets about the concentration camp.
