State Notary Seal Oath and Bond location: Santa Clara County
Wish Gary a Happy Birthday on December 31
Though agriculture was the underpinning of its economy in its early days, Santa Clara veered into technology n the early 1900s. The first public high-altitude flights were made over the city in 1905 in gliders designed by John J. Montgomery. Those early flights portended close ties to the aerospace and computer technology arenas, particularly the semiconductor science that sprouted in about 1980, putting an indelible stamp on the area.
In the historic San Francisco earthquake in 1906, more than 100 patients in the Agnews State Hospital for mental illness were among the hundreds who died. Now, the site is home to Sun Microsystems and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
The shattering earthquake is memorialized by the San Jose Earthquakes, a major league soccer team.At one time the team moved lock, stock and barrel to Houston to become the Houston Dynamos. But Santa Clara revived the name in a new soccer team and the Earthquakes play on.
Arrange to meet one of the Santa Clara traveling notaries at California's Great America, a rollicking amusement park near the Santa Clara Convention Center. That way, you can have your new power of attorney legalized and then forget it on a thrilling ride.
And the city's new 68,500-seat stadium is just down the block, located between the amusement park and the convention center. It opened in July 2014 and was the setting for the Major League Soccer match between San Jose and Seattle the next month. A couple of weeks later, the 49ers and the Denver Broncos met there for a pre-season game. On Feb. 7, 2016, the stadium rocked as the Broncos hammered out a 24-10 win over the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50.
World-class sports, the best of entertainment and the epitome in science as well. Throw in a few mobile notaries and that's Santa Clara!
