Sierra Madre Church
of Ascension Plans
Well Walk
The youth at the Church of the Ascension and Gooden
School have been raising funds for a well in Africa. This
Saturday, September 25, they will raise final funds and
awareness through a Well Walk. The youth of Ascension
and students from Gooden’s fourth through eighth grades
will walk approximately 1.2 miles north on Baldwin from
Kersting Court to the water tunnels in the Little Santa Anita
Canyon and carry water back to Gooden’s Hope Garden.
Produce from the garden will be given to Friends in Deed,
a food bank of Northwest Pasadena. Walkers will be
sponsored by donors throughout the community.
For more information or to donate to the Well Walk, call
the church at (626) 355-1133.

Sometimes all it takes is a little
incentive for a child to discover the
joys of reading—and that’s what the
In-N-Out program is all about!
Beginning Saturday, October 9, 2010,
children ages 4-12 are invited to sign
up at the Sierra Madre Public Library
for the In-N-Out Food For Thought
Reading Program. To receive the
coupon incentives, each child must
read five books at his or her reading
level and note the titles on a reading
log. After five books are read, a
parent or guardian will sign the log
and the child will receive a Food
for Thought Achievement Award
with a coupon for a free hamburger,
cheeseburger, or a meatless grilled-
cheese sandwich. Children too
young to read are eligible if an
adult reads with them. Up to three
certificates may be earned during
the program, while supplies last.
The program ends on November
20, 2010. Alternative prizes are also
available upon request.
For more information, please
call Meegan Tosh, Youth Services
Librarian at (626) 355-7186. The

Do you know it can cost in
excess of $1,000 if you are
transported to the hospital
during an emergency by
an ambulance? Members of
the Sierra Madre Paramedic
Lifesavers Paramedic
Subscription Program will
never have to worry about
such a cost.
The Sierra Madre Paramedic
Lifesavers Paramedic
Subscription Program is
an official program offered
by the City of Sierra Madre
which offsets the cost
of emergency medical
response and transport.
Residents of the City of
Sierra Madre, who subscribe
to the program by paying
an annual membership fee,
avoid any additional out-of-
pocket costs associated with
ambulance transportation
their individual insurance
carrier does not cover.
Residents who do not have
health insurance, and are
subscribers to this program
would pay nothing out-of-
pocket if they were to be
transported to the hospital
by ambulance.
One emergency call for
Emergency Paramedic
services can cost in excess
of $1,000. Additionally,
many insurance companies
do not cover the full cost of
these services. As a member
of the Lifesavers Paramedic
Subscription Program
you will be provided with
emergency medical services
with no additional costs.
Your subscription to the
program will perform
similarly to a secondary
insurance plan, with no out-
of-pocket cost to you. This
program is provided to all
residents of the City of Sierra
Madre with an annual cost of
$30.00 per resident. Annual
renewal to the Lifesavers
Paramedic Subscription
Program happens every fiscal
year on July 1st, and lasts a
full 12 months. We highly
encourage every resident in
the City of Sierra Madre to
participate in this important
program.
