Abilas enjoy reading about Pecos news


Robby and Yolanda Abila relocated from the desert to the
lush San Joaquin Valley of Central California after
graduating from Pecos High School.

They live in Visalia, 30 miles from the Sierra Nevadas, 30
miles from Fresno and 70 miles from Yosemite National
Forest. They are surrounded by lakes and "gorgeous scenery,"
said Yolanda.

Natural beauty has competition from manmade wonders and
entertainment at Disneyland and Magic Mountain, which are
within two hours-plus driving distance.

Robby just got a promotion from a cement truck driver to a
managerial position with Viking/Builders Ready Mix, a French
company. He oversees daily operations of their Hanford Plant.

Yolanda is working on her bachelor's degree with a double
major in sociology and liberal arts. Her goal is to teach
high school sociology and psychology. She had worked in the
local high school before returning to classes herself.

Their children are Fabian, 12, and Chelsea, 9.

Aguilar joins U.S. Army


Jason P. Aguilar has joined the United States Army under the
Delayed Entry Program at the U.S. Army Recruiting Station,
Odessa.

The program gives young men and women the opportunity to
delay entering active duty for up to one year.

The enlistment gives the new soldier the option to learn a
new skill, travel and become eligible to receive as much as
$40,000 toward a college education. After completion of
basic training, soldiers receive advanced individual
training in their career specialty.

Aguilar, a student at Pecos High School, will report to Fort
Sill, Lawton, Okla., for basic training on July 23.

He is the son of Dolores Aguilar and stepson of Raul M.
Reyes of Pecos.

Pizza party held


Anita Zubeldia's second grade class at Austin Elementary
School enjoyed a pizza party Thursday afternoon. The class
met their reading goals through the Book-It program
sponsored by Pizza Hut and were rewarded with the party.
