We have some really fine beer made right here in downtown Boulder Creek. Pictured is Michael Demers, the Brewmaster at Boulder Creek Brewery. An SLV native, Michael has been brewing for over 14 years.
The Brewery has good food, killer beer and live bluegrass/mountain tunes on Thursdays and Sundays . . .

The Boulder Creek Rye Pale Ale is a personal recommendation.

Boulder Creek native and Iraq veteran Denise Berry will be competing in the Miss California 2012 pageant. We checked in with Denise and her father still lives here in Boulder Creek.
While she raised enough to enter the competition, Denise is looking for support to help purchase clothing, hair and travel.
We think she has a great chance of winning – and maybe taking the Miss USA title…. Go Boulder Creek!

In memory of Ben Laney ..
Did you know that none other than Mr. Twister lives in Boulder Creek?
Mr. Twister was once notorious with the meter maids in downtown Santa Cruz for being a good Samaritan… you, see Mr. Twister puts coins in to strangers’ parking meters – so they won’t get a ticket. This activity, which was once somehow illegal, was made legal due to Mr. Twister’s good work.
With a pocket full of jangling quarters, Mr. Twister was taking the bus to town.

Here is a link to an article the Santa Cruz Sentinel wrote on Mr. Twister…. HERE
A quote from the article:
“When I see a parking meter and I see that it’s red, I look to see if there’s either a placard or a ticket already on it. Those people I really can’t do much for. So I save my quarter and when I see somebody who’s just going to be a couple minutes late, I put the quarter in there. And as you can see from the gentleman back there at the counter, some of these people really appreciate that.”
