​🌱 RB: FBI Needs Your Help + Partners In Education Golf Classic

Morning, Rancho Bernardo-4s Ranch! Let's get you started this Wednesday with everything you need to know going on around town today.

First, today's weather:

Mostly sunny and comfortable. High: 73, Low: 45.

Here are three of the top stories today in Rancho Bernardo-4s Ranch:

1. Both the FBI and the SDPD need your assistance in solving a crime. On March 14, 4:29 p.m., a man entered the California Bank & Trust in Rancho Bernardo and demanded money from the teller. The robber was white, 5 feet, 6 inches tall – 5 feet, 10 inches tall, short dark hair, slender, age 30s – 40s. He wore sunglasses, a light-colored Hawaiian style shirt over white T-shirt, dark pants, and tan boots. If you have information regarding this individual, please contact 1-800-CALL-FBI.

2. The Poway Unified School District Foundation’s 14th annual Partners in Education Golf Classes will take place on April 28 at the Rancho Bernardo Inn — and the community is invited to attend. Proceeds from the event will fund STEAM classes and several other programs for students. Registration includes green fees, breakfast, awards luncheon, contests and player tee prize gift, plus a drink ticket. It will be a fun event for your family, your social group, or your company.

3. Now you can save lives by donating blood, or platelets, through the American Red Cross — and you will receive a $10 e-gift card, thanks to Fanatics. Blood drives are being held nearby in Rancho Bernardo, Escondido, Poway, Rancho Penasquitos, and Del Sur. You will need a blood donor card, or driver’s license, or two other forms of I.D. at check in. To learn more: Click into parenthesis, then click the link. (Patch)
