Mountain Bears and ally clubs come together to protest ICE
January 25th,
In the wake of the horrific ICE shootings in Minnesota and the tragic murders of Alex Pretti and Renée Good, Crestline rose up. Over 70 residents gathered in the streets, holding anti-ICE signs and sharing voices of grief, anger, and resolve. Our mountain town has had enough—and we are no longer staying silent.
Both shootings occurred during an unprecedented surge of ICE and Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis as part of “Operation Metro Surge,” a large federal immigration-enforcement campaign. The deaths of Good and Pretti — ignited widespread anger because many locals and national observers see the force used as excessive, opaque, and unaccountable.
Crestline made the paper!
Rim of the World High School Students Protest
Locally- January 30th 2026, 100 of our local High School Rim of the World students joined in a nationwide protest against recent killings by immigration enforcement by walking out of school and protesting. Students across the country have reported stress and fear seeing families, friends and neighborhoods terrorized by ICE raids. Walking out was a "real life civics lesson" where their voices could be heard in a nonviolent way. We are so proud of our young people for exercising their constitutional rights!

Looking back at 2025
The pursuit of happiness, love, friends, truth, integrity, learning from mistakes, pivot, embracing change, fighting for what is right, grace, listening, being bold.
Thank you all for joining us in this journey and sometimes nightmare called 2025. It has been a horrible year for our country but I can honestly say with all our new friends and fellow warriors it has also been an amazing year. Your passion and strength has been an inspiration.
To win the war we need to reinvent ourselves. We need to cut all the weights we have binded ourselves too. We need to sacrifice our personal agendas and actually listen to others' needs. Embrace democracy for all.
