Forget horses, spurs, and whips – to play polo, all you need is a bike, mallet, and enthusiasm (and safety gear, of course). Bike polo, born out of bike courier culture in the Pacific Northwest, has developed a foothold in the Bay Area, with grassroots clubs dotting the region, fueling a subculture that is bringing bike enthusiasts together in an exciting way. The rules of the game are essentially the same as horseback polo – two teams compete against each other, trying to drive a ball into the goal with a mallet. That is where the similarities end, as horseback polo and all its accoutrements carry a Continued on page 39

mission: VTA is reforecasting a passenger service date for Phase I of the BART Safety and Silicon Valley Project, which will run from Warm Springs in Fremont to Berryessa in North San Jose. The reliability estimated opening date for BART service is fall 2018. The VTA team expects to complete the last series of required milestones on the project this March, after which time BART takes control of the completed facilities and performs testing and training to fully integrate the system. BART has consistently stated that it prefers to have six months to complete pre-revenue operations. This will allow BART the time and opportunity to make their own assessment for when they will be able to put the new 10-mile extension into passenger service. Over the past several months, VTA has invested significant additional technical resources to train control engineering and testing in an effort to expedite the project and to relieve some of the burden on BART when it takes over the next phase of testing and training. Despite these extraordinary efforts, it is necessary to push back the estimated opening date from the original June 2018 projection. After five years of construction and $2.3 billion dollars in investment, VTA’s number one priority is to deliver a safe, reliable and fully integrated service. We appreciate the community’s anticipation of this important transportation project and we are looking forward to a significant improvement in mobility throughout Santa Clara County when BART service to Silicon Valley begins.

Valentine’s Day continues to be a favorite day to get married, with dozens of couples expected to exchange vows at the County of Santa Clara Government Center on February 14. The County of Santa Clara Office of the Clerk-Recorder is making it easier than ever for couples to exchange their marriage vows through civil ceremony options, including the Express Marriage Ceremony Service at the customer service windows (which doesn’t require appointments) and nuptials in the County’s Wedding Chapel with up to 20 family members and friends in attendance. Leading up to their nuptials, couples can save time by filling out and submitting their marriage applications online before coming to the County Clerk-Recorder’s Office. The online application is available at www.clerkrecorder.org (click Marriage Services and Applying for a Marriage License) or http://bit.ly/MarriageApplicationsOnline. The County offers civil marriages as a service to the community. On a typical day, the Office of the Clerk-Recorder performs about 23 marriages. This easily doubles during Valentine’s Day; there were 61 marriages on Valentine’s Day 2017. In 2017, the Clerk-Recorder’s Office issued 10,676 marriage licenses and scheduled 4,522 marriage ceremonies throughout the year. Some couples come alone; others come with the pageantry of a full wedding party.

SUBMITTED BY KATHY MIRANDA
Every year, students in the 4th grade at St. Edward School in Newark complete a month-long project on the 21 California Missions as part of their Social Studies curriculum. In the past, projects have typically been handmade buildings constructed with creative materials to create a small replica of their mission. Lately, through the use of technology, students’ mission projects have been taking on a new twist. This year, two of the projects used new technology. Maeve Van Bibber created a detailed replica of Mission Santa Ines using the video game Minecraft. Using an application called Bandicut, she not only created an exterior view of the mission, but also a detailed interior, resulting in a detailed digital tour and voiceover.
