Congratulations to Mike McAustin for being named KSBY’s Hometown Heroes for 2022! Mike is an amazing volunteer who has single-handedly taken on the role of construction supervisor for the Jack Ready Imagination Park. Mike is a retired high school teacher and coach from Arroyo Grande High School and a friend of the founders of Jack’s Helping Hand, Paul and Bridget Ready. When approached to help with the planning and building of the Park in 2017 he graciously said yes and has donated countless hours of planning, meetings, manual labor, and determination to make this park a success. Mike demonstrates tireless devotion to the completion of this project as he sees the benefit of getting children and their families outside, regardless of ability level. He is supported by his equally committed wife, Michelle, and is a true hero for providing his dedication and volunteerism to this project. #JHH2006
Did you know that October is Spina Bifida Awareness Month?! Spina Bifida is a birth defect involving the incorrect formation of the spine or spinal cord. According to the CDC, over 1,500 babies affected by Spina Bifida are born each year. We were so happy to assist Claire’s family with travel to and from multiple appointments while dealing with this diagnosis. Claire is a shining example of living a full and happy life in the face of a difficult diagnosis!
