CF is a genetic disease with chronic symptoms that include a buildup of mucus and congestion in the respiratory and digestive systems which can cause severe infections, breathing difficulties and malnutrition.

CF patients who surf and paddle board can experience a decrease in severity of symptoms. Saltwater mist surfers inhale can help lubricate their lungs and ease chronic congestion.

Costa Mesa Deserves a Better Library

06.12.15

Costa Mesa has an amazing opportunity to expand its library at the Donald Dungan Library, which will provide a large children's area and a teen's room, both separate from the adult part of the library. The much needed space will allow for study and tutoring rooms, meeting rooms, and more. 

And what is even better, you have the chance to put in your "two cents" worth of opinion. This will all happen at the Neighborhood Community Center, 1845 Park Avenue in Costa Mesa, at 6 p.m. on Thursday, June 18, 2015. It will be the last of three community meetings about this project. 

If you would like to catch up on what went on before, go to costamesaca.gov on the City of Costa Mesa's website.  The two previous presentations given by the architectural consultant are also their for your perusal.  Please check them out and attend the meeting on June 18.

Costa Mesa/Donald Dungan Library is at 1855 Park Ave. in Costa Mesa. 949.646.8845.
