As a long-time subscriber, Rasso found out about the $1,000 sweepstakes by reading the City News every week and saw the opportunity and decided to enter giving himself something to enjoy especially now because he has been working from home and has some free time.
“I've been a subscriber for a while and I love the way you guys print your paper and I enjoy reading the articles,” Rasso said.
Rasso is a classified employee for the Colton Joint Unified School District, working with many teachers from across the district. Rasso’s job usually entails him working in the main offices, interacting with many coworkers and CJUSD staff, however, since the COVID-19 pandemic, Rasso is mainly working from home. Many of the programs he needs to work can be accessed from his computer at home.
With many schools about to go on summer vacation, Rasso will still be hard at work getting ready for the next school year.
“I work year-round and when teachers and students go on summer break, I use that time to catch up on my work,” Rasso said.
Rasso loves working with the CJUSD and enjoys seeing how their teachers interact with the students.
“Every one of them [teachers] are amazing, how they interact with the children, the care they show for the children and that’s what I enjoy about the Colton atmosphere,” Rasso said.
Alice’s Restaurant is thrilled and cannot wait to provide Rasso with a free meal and Rasso was equally excited to know that he had won from this restaurant.
“I love that place, it feels really great to win. It is one of my wife and I’s favorite spots,” Rasso said. “I think I’m going to surprise my wife with the free meal.”
