Milpitas Community Band and Arts

Be A Part of the Band The Milpitas Community Concert Band (MCCB), under the direction of Jeff Yaeger, is comprised of musicians with various backgrounds coming together to make music! The band continues to provide a supportive and interesting outlet for its members’ musical growth, as well as provide an entertaining experience for its audiences and the community! In addition to band standards, MCCB performs a variety of marches, musical/Broadway selections, classical pieces, transcriptions and forgotten gems – some of which haven’t been performed in the Bay Area in decades.

MCCB performs several family-friendly concerts throughout the year and is a treasured musical presence at the City of Milpitas’ annual Veterans Day Ceremony and Holiday Tree Lighting events. The MCCB is always actively seeking new members who play Flute, any size Clarinet, Oboe, Bassoon, any size Saxophone, Trumpet, French Horn, Baritone Horn/Euphonium, Tuba, or Percussion. Musicians of various levels and ages are welcome to join. If you are an active performer or haven’t played in years, there’s a place for you in MCCB! Rehearsals are held Thursdays, 7:30PM - 9:30PM, at the Barbara Lee Senior Center (40 N. Milpitas Blvd). The yearly registration fee is $30 per member.

The Milpitas Community Concert Band’s 24th season kicks off this Fall with two concerts. All MCCB concerts are designed to entertain you and your family, are always admission free and serve light refreshments at the end. Donations are accepted at concerts (suggested $2 per person), and all proceeds are used solely to benefit the band.

Len BruffettAs a native Californian, I’ve always been inspired by the many unique environs of California’s geography.I have used my life long interest in photography to translate what I see into black and white photographs.

My interest in making photographs began at age eight using a simple Argus twin lens reflex camera. At age eighteen I applied my photographic skills professionally while serving with US Military Intelligence in Europe. My camera of choice was a compact and quiet Leica M3.

Upon completion of my military service I returned home to the Santa Clara valley, completed college and began my engineering career. Because photography was such a big part of my life I maintained dual careers, a freelance commercial / fine art photographer and engineer.

Over the course of 30 plus years I have used both medium and large format film cameras. Today, I create my photographs with a Linhof 4”x 5” field camera using sheet film.

In my darkroom I utilize the techniques and processes established by the 20th century masters of photography for processing and printing my photographs.

My 11” x 14 “ fine art prints are archival processed, mounted on archival 16” x 20” museum quality board and will provide a lifetime of viewing pleasure. For the duration of this exhibit my photographs are for sale at $300. each.

Contact information is available on my website. www.lenbruffett.com

Volunteer Partners

Ashok Sharma Melba Holliday

Make a Difference and Volunteer!The City of Milpitas hosts many community programs, events, and activities throughout the year that serve the Milpitas population and local surrounding areas. Volunteers are frequently recruited to assist in various aspects of these programs, providing valuable staff support as well as help and encouragement to citizens.

Opportunities exist for working on a variety of tasks in every department within the city structure. Different opportunities are available at various times throughout the year and time commitments vary based on the specific task requirements and the volunteers’ availability. All those interested in volunteering must complete an MVP application and participate in the screening and interview process.

Volunteer applications can be mailed to you or downloaded from www.ci.milpitas.ca.gov(in the Recreation Services section).

Make a Difference and Volunteer!The Barbara Lee Senior Center uses volunteers in many capacities to provide services for its members. One of the areas that depends heavily on volunteers is in the Case Manager’s section. These volunteers serve as receptionists and provide blood pressure readings. The receptionists assist participants by booking their appointments, providing information, and checking-in clients for their appointments. High blood pressure is a problem for many older adults and keeping it regulated is very important. Many Senior Center members come in on a regular basis to have their blood pressure read and recorded so they have a record of it when they visit their doctors. Among the volunteers, two provide translation services and one helps with food vouchers. The volunteers in this area include Dorothy Baniqued, Nellie Chung, Ajooma Cheeramkuzhiyil, Melba Holliday, Deborah Langley, Kim Hoang Nguyen, Ashok Sharma, and Margaret Tao.

Community ResourcesRecycle Styrofoam at Newby Island Resource Recovery ParkDid you know that Republic Services recycles Styrofoam? Milpitas residents are invited to recycle molded blocks and food containers at the Newby Island Resource Recovery Park (NIRRP) located at 1601 Dixon Landing Road.

Visit the Recyclery scale house (first scale inside the NIRRP) for directions to the foam drop-off area. Be sure to follow these simple guidelines:

• Make sure molded blocks and food containers show this symbol

• Food containers MUST be clean and rinsed• Place molded blocks and food containers in separate

bags.• Bags must be clear and tied at the top.• No straws, lids, plastic wrap or trash.• No packaging

Fall Leaf Clean-upFall is a beautiful time of year – until those leaves drop from the trees! Your neighborhood may have old growth sycamore trees that require weekly street sweeping. Between November and January, some residential streets are swept weekly rather than every other week. A notification from Republic Services will be sent if your home is in this service area. There are two easy ways you can keep your streets clean and debris from clogging the storm drains: 1) Recycle leaves and grass clippings in your green cart, and 2) Move your vehicle off the street on sweep day from 7 a.m.- 5 p.m.

Not sure when your street sweeping collection day is?Visit www.republicservices.com/site/santa-clara-ca/en/pages/city-of-milpitas.aspx or call Republic Services at 408-432-0444.

Holiday Waste Collection ScheduleMark your calendar for these service changes:• Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 24: No

collection. Service resumes on Friday; Friday service will be collected on Saturday.

• No change in collection for Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.

Watch Out for Killers, Hurters, Hiders and SlidersKeeping Hazardous Waste Out of Collection Carts The ability to identify what items belong in which collection cart is essential to the success of the recycling process. Even more vital to our efforts, is keeping hazardous waste out of both the trash, recycling and yard trims streams to protect workers and the environment.

Materials that DON’T belong in any cart: The Killers, Hurters, Hiders and Sliders!

The Killers: Actual poisons Pesticides Herbicides Insect sprays

The Hurters: Chemicals that are harsh, damaging or toxic Acids (swimming pool chemicals) Chlorine bleaches Lye Liquid drain openers Paint and paint-related products such as thinners, varnishes, strippers Rust removers Photo and x-ray processing products and residues Automotive cleaners and solvents The Hiders: Products that have toxic or dangerous elements hidden inside Automotive tires Batteries Electronic products - computers, monitors, printers, etc. Light bulbs - traditional or fluorescent Aerosol cans Tanks with any amount of helium, propane or oxygen The Sliders: Lubricants and oil-based products Used or new motor oil Transmission fluid Gasoline Anti-freeze and brake fluid

If you have any questions about hazardous materials and how to safely dispose of them, check the County of Santa Clara’s Household Hazardous Waste website at www.hhw.org.
