Thousands of people use the Red Bluff Community/Senior Center each year, but many may not know that without the persistence of Goldie Walston, it might not be here. Although she was well into her seventies, she organized the group to raise money for a center. In the 1970s the city applied for a federal grant for a center, but it was denied. The city had an architect draw up schematics and cost estimates, which were $3 million. Then the city put it up for a vote ? a non-binding item asking whether voters would support financing a center.

On Sept. 12, 1983, she made the first deposit with the city, and the account earned more than 10 percent interest for a while. Gene Penne became one of Goldie's advisors, and her group went through the lengthy process of incorporation and non-profit status as a 501(c)3 organization. Every day Goldie phoned all the people on her list, rallying her troops. State Assemblyman Stan Statham and his aides were prodded frequently. She and her helpers sponsored every kind of fundraiser they could think of. They sold baked goods at sidewalk sales, served coffee or cold drinks on the sidelines at parades summer and winter, held yard sales, put on luncheons, card parties and spaghetti dinners, saved grocery store receipts for rebates, served hot dogs and sodas at grand openings.
