Olympic Athletes to Watch: Nikki Hiltz and Dom Parrish
Don’t Miss It!
Mark your calendar for this one: The Joint Chiefs will be at the Scotts Valley Art Wine & Beer Festival Sunday, Aug. 18 from 3 to 5 p.m. at Skypark in Scotts Valley. This four-piece band — love that saxophone — will get you movin’ and groovin’ to their sound. The Joint Chiefs are so popular, their summer
calendar is fully booked, but they will be right here in Scotts Valley. So no long drive, no traffic jams, no admission charge, just a fine summer afternoon. n For all the details on the Scotts Valley Art Wine & Beer Festival, which starts Saturday, Aug. 17, see page 11.
By Jondi Gumz Locals who watch the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris can keep an eye out for Aptos High School alum Nikki Hiltz, competing in the 1500 meter race. Full Story page 5
