RIP
Becky Stift
RIP Nolan! We will be there
Half the people on that list are from racing and drunk driving… I don’t think they should have their names on plaque for their own stupidity
Where did you come up with that bogus statistic?
The Youth Grove is for the Santa Clarita community – particularly our youth – to use, and to reflect upon the unfortunate consequences of drinking and driving, and of reckless driving.
Now why dont you look up all the names on those logs and see how each person died…. most from drunk driving and racing….. Call “my” stats bogus all you want but the whole reason this was created was in the hope other kids would learn from others mistakes
Are they adding names to it??
There is room to add more people
Brian Schulz that’s not true
Jenn Hemingway, Danny had a spot here.
Tiffani I know I went to the very first opening of this and have the booklet of names/stories from then somewheres
Wow Brian I can’t believe you really just posted that . A life lost is a life lost regardless of how it happened. Obviously you have never lost anyone in your life or you are just a cold person .
Yeah his comment is just ignorant
Rip Jaime Arias and Jen Stift
I wonder if my good old friend Roberts name is on there who died in a car accident in 2002. Better picture please
The center plaque doesn’t display names. Your friend Robert may have his name displayed on what look like tree trunks cut short with a plaque on top. You should go check it out. :-)
I bet you Robert Linebach would be listed. I’m pretty sure Timmy, Nicki, and Danny are listed also.
There are names and ages ranging from 4 yrs old to 24 yrs old. I went there last week and saw Kristy Bodke’s name as well. Even though I didn’t know her, she went to Saugus with many of my friends. Tori Alcantar ??
Yes I believe memory serves me right Kristy was in an accident that claimed her life in may or June of
Sarah Alarid, Dakota DeMott, Jenn Stift.
Macy is there also… She was 5 and died July 7, 2011 miss you moo moo
Jonathan Ronaldo Guzman Angelica Araya a reminder to drive safe and not take life and the privilege of driving for granted.
