Missing Cat near Rivernook campgrounds

Missing Cat, he ran away at the rivernook campgrounds. If anyone sees him, please grab him. He is a very sweet cat. His name is Jake. He is a little skiddish and anxious but shouldn't be to difficult to get him to come to you.

Cash reward to whoever finds him. We just want him to come home.

Why did lake Isabella never really become more of a tourist spot ?

Spending all of my summers there in the 70’s and 80’s I’m surprised it didn’t grow to more of a tourist spot. The lake is amazing, and expected it to be overrun by now.

Just curious what people thoughts are on this.

Just buried my mom at the kern River valley cemetery.

They were awesome people.

I hadn’t spent much time in the area since I was young, and it brought back a lot of fond memories.

My dad left a fly fishing pole north of Kernville

My dad left a fly fishing pole in a black case off the side of mountain highway 99 between limestone campground and Kernville. If anyone has it or knows anything, let me know. Much appreciated thanks!

When will it be safe to visit Sequoia Natl Forest?

Obviously it’s guessing but wanted to visit and aware of the difficult situation with fires. Just don’t know if it’s “no way for a long time” or more tbd

Borel fire impacting valley internet?

i know mediacom isn't exactly dependable even under the most ideal circumstances but i've been constantly going up and down the last few days (my area wasn't evacuated). trying to figure out if it has something to do with the fire or if it's just my problem and i should be calling in a tech. and mediacom customer support has been useless (shocking /s).

figured it'd be better to ask here. i run a home business and the internet plays a part of that (in addition to keeping an eye on things since phone data is weak at best) but i know asking on facebook i'd just get mocked for not being able watch my soaps or something.

KRV Bridge Connection - Neighbor-to-Neighbor

The KRV Bridge Connect is thrilled to announce a collaborative effort with the Kern River Valley Art Association, Riverstone Wellness, and Sierra Shared Spaces. Made possible by a grant from California Volunteers, Office of the Governor's Neighbor-to-Neighbor program, together, we'll host a series of events focused on fostering strong social connections and building a vibrant Kern River Valley community.

This series of events aims to provide opportunities for Kern River Valley residents to connect with neighbors, participate in community activities, volunteer to help their neighbors, and enjoy free social gatherings. See a glimpse of upcoming events!

Our first event is the Kick & Flip Ribbon Cutting for the George and Darlene Skate Park and Kick-Off party on Fri, July 12. We'll celebrate the completion of this long-awaited KRV project. Get ready for skate competitions, a ton of fun activities and games, and a massive giveaway of 50 complete skate decks! But that's not all - the celebration continues with a block party for the whole community!

Facilitated by Kern County, this grant represents a valuable investment in strengthening Kern River Valley communities. The KRV Bridge is eager to collaborate with various organizations to create opportunities that would not be possible alone. And, in order to ensure the events we host reflect the needs and interests of our residents, we're seeking your input! Share your ideas and suggestions for community events that align with the grant's goals of fostering social connections and building a vibrant KRV.

AC issues. Kernville

Anyone know a reasonably good AC person to come see why my Central air is not pushing out cold air. Filters changed, compressor cleaned, no debris I am currently running the fan on over night to see if this will thaw any ice buildup.
