Weaverville Nominated for America’s Coolest Small Town

mcmedical — Thu, 12 Jan 2012 16:06:09 +0000

Coursing rivers, craggy mountains, vibrant wilderness. Weaverville’s setting on the outskirts of California’s Shasta-Trinity National Forest sells itself. It owns a nice slice of history, too: Unlike many gold-rush towns, Chinese laborers in Weaverville in the mid-1800s were able to cultivate a strong and supportive local community here. The result is a town that, even today, comfortably spans cultures. There are strains of Victorian America in antique residences such as the 1865 five-room Whitmore Inn while the spirit of the frontier flavors the menu of the Old West styled La Grange Cafe. For a touch of California bohemia, try the fair trade coffee and organic tea served at Mamma Llama Eatery. Anchoring it all is a strong history of Taoist tradition exemplified by the Joss House, the state’s oldest continuously used Chinese temple, where the faithful have worshiped since 1874. Religious and cultural tolerance combined with 2 million acres of wild country? Sounds like heaven on earth—a description that wouldn’t be out of place in the works of the writer James Hilton, who compared Weaverville to a mythical paradise of his own creation: a little place called Shangri-La.

Trinity Hospital Gets New CT Scanner

mcmedical — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 13:39:19 +0000

Mountain Communities Healthcare District purchased a new CT scanner through a lease agreement in order to replace 17-year-old equipment which needed major repairs and was not capable of many needed procedures.

The Mountain Communities Healthcare District directors voted at the Oct. 21 meeting to approve a contract with Atlas Medical Technologies for the refurbished CT scanner. The five-year lease agreement called for trade-in of the current scanner and $197,000 to be divided into monthly payments of $7,930 plus tax. Service is included in the contract.

There was also a $20,000 security deposit paid with funds from an estate donated to the Trinity Hospital Auxiliary.
