Folsom Fire Adds Some Muscle
Folsom Fire Department recently got a $70,000 grant, which was used to purchase a swiftwater rescue boat and a couple of thermal imaging cameras. This is great news to boaters - search crews can now get to Folsom Lake or Lake Natoma 10-15 minutes quicker in the event of an emergency.

What's Boot Camp Like?
Ever wonder what it's like to go through Boot Camp and prepare to be a soldier in today's military? Folsom resident Mike Volkin can tell you. He's been through it, and wrote a book to help out any incoming recruits. He published the Ultimate Basic Training Guidebook - an excellent gift for someone joining the military, or who is considering.

The Man in Black
Johnny Cash put Folsom on the map. When this city was nothing more than a sleepy little prison town, Johnny Cash came to play a live concert, including "Folsom Prison Blues", at Folsom Prison. Johnny Cash is remembered in Hollywood's biopic, "Walk the Line".

HP's Loss, Intel's Gain
Hewlett-Packard went through a recent downturn in the economy, which meant layoffs to some employees. Fortunately, the timing wasn't all that bad, as Intel has been hiring quite a bit lately, with 4,000 US jobs available. This means a lot of displaced workers have ended up at Intel. Where they'll sit is another question, as the campus is nearing capacity...Labels: Intel

Folsom Grapples with Homeless Issues
As light rail has kicked off in Folsom to incredible success, many business and homeowners have voiced their concern on the side-effects. Some argue that coupled with the city's first 24/7/365 homeless shelter, it's a recipe for a growing homeless population (currently around 65).
