West Hills Restaurant Society Cash Mobs to Help Local Eateries Succeed

The high school group has organized events next week at Pinnacle Peak and Roots Community Kitchen.

The West Hills Restaurant Society will be hosting a cash mob at Pinnacle Peak Steakhouse and Roots Community Kitchen in Santee next week.

The idea of the cash mob is to help restaurants in Santee by providing free advertising and by attending the restaurants in mass number, according to the WHRS Facebook page.

Cash Mobs are a recent phonomenon used to "support local businesses and encourage people to buy locally," according to the cashmob.com.

WHRS is a group made from students in the West Hills High AP Government class that are "trying to make a difference in our community," according to their Facebook page.

The event at Pinnacle Peak is Monday (Jan. 14) and the Roots Community Kitchen event is on Friday (Jan. 18) both at 5:30 until closing.

Roots Community Kitchen is a new addition to Santee that is described as a "farm-to-table gastropub with homestyle hospitality." Pinnacle Peak Steakhouse is a longtime Santee restaurant where you'll lose a tie if you dress too fancy.

No drop down menus, just click the header links for more options. For story categories click newsRead More and look on the left hand column. I know the redesign will take a bit to get used to, but I really think it will be a better site for community engagement, and easier to use. Feel free to post your feedback to the redesign on the boards, I'll check it out and respond, but you might also send your feedback straight to Patch headquarters with this form- http://feedback.aol.com/rs/rs.php?sid=patch Engineers will be furiously tweeking the new site based on your suggestions.

this is why the battlefield has changed temporarily from the political arena to the Energy Arena.Read More Co Gen Tricks and the usual suspects are making their big money bet on two inevitable facts that will force the hand of the CPUC and CEC to place a new gas power plant somewhere in the area. 1) the Electric Vehicle Mandate. 2) voltage support (power factor) needed by the industrial wind and solar farms in the desert. There is more to what meets the eye with the aggressive push by the usual suspects to cover our open spaces in the East County with these poorly sited RE projects. More wind and solar farms means more gas power plants. There is only one way to fight the destruction of our open spaces, and that is with roof top solar, conservation, energy efficiency and community owned energy districts. The fisrt thing that needs to be done is the City of Santee exempt residential scale PV installs from needing a building permit. Australia, Germany and the State of Vermont do not require a Building Permit to install PV.
