A hill called Christmas
What's in a name: "Hello Red Phone! While at a wedding the other day, my husband and I and another couple were sitting at the table and my husband, being born and raised in Gilroy, they all wanted to know how Christmas Hill Park got its name. My husband looked at them and said, 'I've been here my whole life and I don't even know how it got its name.' So if you could find that out for us and publish it, we'd really appreciate it. We're wondering too. Thank you."

All about the Garlic Festival
Kudos to parking lot volunteers: "I wanted to congratulate you on the story on the Garlic Festival. It's a good reason why local papers should stay in existence. On your heroes though, I think you left someone out that is a super volunteer that you might want to go back and consider. It's the lady, I believe her name is Suki, who runs with 350 volunteers in the parking lot. Those kids work in the dust and it's a remarkable feat that they can even live through that. I'm telling you this in spite of the fact that is cost me $120 to park there because I blew a tire on a rock. But I'd like to see those people given credit along with the fire throwers and so forth in Gourmet Alley. Thank you."
