Special-kids group offers daily support by Ruth Roberts The Special Kids Foundation supports and participates in a variety events for local children with disabilities, including sports such as soccer.
Staff Writer For Sherri Cline, life as the parent of a special-needs child is all about support. “When I get frustrated, when I’ve had a bad day, being able to talk to someone, to vent, to get advice or just have someone who understands because they’ve been there is critical,” said Cline, a member of the Special Kids Foundation and the mother of a special-needs daughter. “For me, support is an ongoing thing; an everyday part of my life.” Shai Glosser, also a member of Special Kids, feels the same way. It’s the daily contact with other parents like herself, the ongoing outreach and community-based events and programs, that make the biggest difference. “Having a close community of parents, really a community within a community, is critical,” said Glosser, who has a son with autism. “Knowing there is someone to turn to in a crisis or for information, or just to reach out to, is a wonderful thing. It’s huge.” And that, according to Special Kids Foundation Director Lisa McBride, is what the East County organization is all about. “Every day in a variety of ways, whether behind the scenes or on the front lines, we are working to make things better for the whole family, not just the special-needs child,” said McBride. “And that’s what makes us unique.” Since 2006, the nonprofit organization has been dedicated to promoting the educa-

tion, awareness and success of all families with children of special needs through parent support programs, community events and big dreams. Monthly support group meetings, email contact, monthly newsletters and a variety of annual events including private visits with Santa each season at Smith Farms, as well as bowling leagues and baseball and soccer organizations, all combine to create a constant presence in the community – a community increasingly supportive of special-needs children and their families. “We have so many supporters, professional and private individuals who embrace what we do and help us in so many ways with our goals and plans,” said McBride. “We feel very blessed.”

One of the foundation’s most ambitious plans includes building a facility somewhere in East County where families can go to receive services for their children, including therapy and advocacy, educational and legal information and general support. In East County alone, there are more than 5,000 children with special needs, and no nearby services. The foundation believed it had found a home for its center at the Delta Family YMCA in Oakley, but the local chapter abruptly filed bankruptcy a few months ago and plans for the center were shut down. Included in the foundation’s plans for the center was the construction of an all-abilities playground – a joint venture between the City of Oakley and the YMCA and for which Special Kids had been raising funds.
But the good news is that the playground is still on the city’s radar and plans for its construction continue to move ahead. “We’re looking forward to collaborating on the all-abilities playground,“ said McBride. “That’s something that we’re all looking forward to and are excited to help in whatever ways we can. “We’re also aggressively pursuing the search to find a space (for the center) where we can start providing services. I’m very optimistic that even with the economic downturn we’ve all been going through, people are still driven to find creative ways to make things work – and we will too. Whether it means starting small with a few rooms, then that’s OK. We’re getting our toes in the water and getting started. We’re in a good place.” And families of the foundation are in a good place, too. “This (the foundation) has been a great thing for me, for all of us,” said Cline. “It’s been so freeing to have something to do and places to go where we don’t feel like we have to stay at home or worry about how our child is going to behave or act. Everyone is always ready to offer support, advice and help, and what is so wonderful is that everyone’s successes are your successes, too. It’s really an amazing group.” The Special Kids Foundation meets the second Wednesday of the month from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Black Bear Diner in Oakley.

Love that HDTV, too TAX CREDIT UPDATE #2 There have been Federal and State Homebuyer Tax Credits recently. The deadline to qualify for the Federal credit has expired (had to be in contract on your home prior to 4/30/10), but the California credit is still valid, but only until they hit the approved limit. There are two types of California credit – one is for first-time homebuyers (if you haven’t owned a home during the prior three years) and then a credit for buying a brand-new home. The Franchise Tax Board thinks they will run out of money for the first-time homebuyer credit within the next few weeks. They think they are at about 80% of the dollar limit, but faxes are still pouring in daily. They are finding that many of the applications are duplicates, or don’t qualify for some reason, so they are going to keep taking more applications than they need to make sure they get enough. So if you get a confirmation that your fax went through, that does NOT mean you automatically get the credit. They still have plenty of money for the tax credit for brand-new homes. And that one applies even if you already own a home, so that’s good
news for move-up buyers. In regards to the Federal credit, you had to be in escrow by 4/30/10, and then close escrow by 6/30/10. There is a huge crush of purchases trying to close by this date, and many lenders, appraisers and title companies are backed up trying to get these deals closed on time. Congress was considering legislation to extend the deadline to close escrow to allow these buyers more time. (They were only discussing extending the 6/30 deadline to close, not the 4/30 deadline to allow more people to qualify.) But I recently heard a rumor that they were two votes short of getting it to pass, so as I write the article, it looks like the 6/30/10 deadline is going to stick. If you are counting on that Federal tax credit, make sure you close by 6/30/10! We don’t know yet if we’ll see deals cancelling over their inability to get the tax credit. Let’s hope not!

Should I Stay or Should I Go? Voluntary Defaults by Joan Grimes, Esq. up to 7 years. Personal liability on a home loan is determined by the character of the loan at the time the loan was originated and then by the manner in which the lender chooses to foreclose. Generally, a loan or loans used to purchase a 1-4 unit property occupied by the borrower will have no personal or tax liability unless it is excluded loan product such as many types of governmental loans such as VA loans. On the other hand, home loans which were not used to purchase a 1-4 unit property occupied by the borrower such as refinances, lines of credit or loans on investment properties, may have both personal and tax liability. Even after considering the legal issues, we still need to think about a voluntary default from a financial point of view. Is being “house poor” causing you to not properly fund your retirement, your children’s college education or preventing you from paying bills as they come due or taking your family on vacation? In conclusion, a voluntary default may be the right decision for you just as it was for Morgan Stanley. It was a business decision for Morgan Stanley and it should be for you too. This is a complicated area of the law, but a real estate or bankruptcy attorney should be able to make to an analysis of your particular situation fairly quickly which will allow you to decide if a voluntary default is the right decision for you and your family. THIS INFORMATION IS NOT PROVIDED AS LEGAL ADVICE AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED UPON IN MAKING ANY DECISION REGARDING A VOLUNTARY DEFAULT, SHORT SALE, FORECLOSURE OR BANKRUPTCY. THIS INFORMATION IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR OBTAINING TAX & LEGAL ADVICE REGARDING AN INDIVIDUAL SITUATION. © 2010 Joan Grimes Joan M.

To say that these are difficult times in the real estate market would be an understatement. The melt down began with an extended boom fueled by cheap money followed by a rapid contraction of the credit supply. This lethal combination has led to an unprecedented decline in housing values. I have no doubt that the real estate market will come back and thrive. However, in the meantime, does it make financial sense to stay in a home that is underwater; where the value may not come back for 10-15 years and you may only be paying interest on the loan? What is a person to do? The mortgage industry and government would like us to feel a moral obligation to repay our debts. The argument goes that we are sending the wrong message to our children and community if we default on a loan where we had the ability to make the payments. Never mind that Wall Street banks and investors are voluntarily defaulting on office building, hotels and commercial properties across the nation. Morgan Stanley recently decided to stop paying on five San Francisco office buildings and no one is saying they have a moral obligation. It was a strategic decision to let the properties go rather than invest more money. A decision to voluntarily or strategically default on a loan can be a very emotional decision. However, if we take the emotional side out of the equation, what does it look like from a purely financial and legal standpoint? From a legal standpoint, there are three questions when contemplating a default on a home loan. They are the following: 1) how will default affect my credit? 2) will there be any personal liability from the default? and 3) will there be any tax liability? In addition, from a financial standpoint, how does the continuing payment of this debt affect other areas of my life? As a general rule, under California law, a short sale or foreclosure can remain on a person’s credit for

Oakley school bells Disney distinction to ring in longer days by Ruth Roberts Staff Writer
When students in the Oakley Union Elementary School District (OUESD) return to the classroom next month, they’ll be returning to a longer school day. Beginning in July with the start of the 2010-11 school year, OUESD students will log on average an extra 20 to 25 minutes per day in the classroom – approximately 1,200 additional instructional minutes per year. “We’ve had discussions about this for the last two or three years, but I think it got set on the back burner primarily because of budgets,” said Anne Allen, OUESD assistant superintendent of Student Services. “But the current contract for the fourth and fifth grade early release time was set to expire on June 30, so it seemed like a good time to bring the idea back to the forefront.” According to the plan, students at the district’s five elementary and two middle schools will see longer classroom hours four days a week, and early release times on Wednesdays. Delta Vista and O’Hara Park middle school classes will begin at 8:30 a.m. and conclude at 2:46 p.m. Their minimum days (Wednesday) will let out at 12:30 p.m. Schedules for the elementary schools, which include Laurel, Gehringer, Iron House, Oakley and Vintage, will vary because of transportation factors. Start times will range from 8:05 a.m. to 8:25 a.m. Release
“It’s not an easy time for anybody, but we have an amazing group of educators that are doing this because the bottom line is that it is going to be great for the kids.
”
Anne Allen, OUESD times will also differ depending on the grade. The extended school day will give teachers the opportunity to schedule collaborative time to assess student performance and needs, as well as provide students with additional instructional and one-on-one time. Allen believes the adjusted schedule will offer something for everyone. “One of the obvious concerns is that there are not enough minutes in the regular day to get everything done,” she said. “The demands that are being placed on educators are such that certain things have to be done. We think this makes the most sense.” And despite the fact that the district is already thousands of minutes over the regulated state standards, teachers in the Oakley district voluntarily came up with the longer school day as a way to meet the needs of their students, even though they will not be financially compensated for it. “The Oakley teachers have yet again stepped up to the plate and are

Trevor’s Weekly Mortgage Matters By Trevor Frey
Perfect Timing Credit Extended Through September 30th, 2010 “We didn’t lose the game; we just ran out of time.” Based on a recent National Association of Realtors (NAR) Pending Sales survey, this famous Vince Lombardi quote can more than sum up the anxious feelings that 55,000 – 75,000 prospective homebuyers are beginning to have. For both first-time buyers, and move-up buyers alike, the June 30th expiration date of their potential federal tax credit is right around the corner…and Congress has taken notice…and since extended the homebuyer’s credit through September 30th, 2010! An amendment to H.R. 4213, a tax extension bill currently in the Senate, will be discussed next week in hopes of extending the federal tax credit for buyers who are already in contract to purchase their home. The extension will not “open” the federal tax credit to new buyers; it will simply allow buyers with circumstances outside of their control, who will not close escrow before June 30th, an opportunity to claim their credit. According to NAR President, Vicki Cox Golder, “This amendment does not extend the deadline for home buyers to qualify for the tax credit; it extends the deadline for closing the transaction from June 30th to Sept. 30th. These are not buyers who just entered into the market. These are buyers who previously met all the qualifications for the tax credit, but find them-
selves at the mercy of a work-flow jam with the lenders or other delays and might not be able to complete the purchase of their homes.” On top of “work-flow jam with lenders”, many buyers find themselves in contract on a bank owned foreclosure property (REO), or even more time consuming, a short-sale. Both types of purchases carry a HUGE unknown in the form of the actual seller. With banks seeing their inventory as just that and nothing more, the purchasing process can be a frustrating one for buyers across the board. When you’re making what many consider to be the largest purchase/investment of their life, and you have someone on the other end that punches in, punches out, and sees you as a number on their desk, the waiting process can be a brutal one. It would be unfair for you as a buyer to have met the eligibility requirements for the credit, done all within your power to satisfy the timing requirements, but then have to forfeit the credit because of administrative challenges related to the transaction that are outside of your control. I applaud Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, and Senators Johnny Isakson and Chris Dodd for bringing this issue to light…their timing couldn’t be better! As always, I welcome all questions and or concerns pertaining to real estate lending on my cell phone, 925-726-1444, or via email, tfreymortgages@yahoo.com. – Advertisement

Stand up for local fire protection by Brian Dawson Discovery Bay If you are a resident of Brentwood, Oakley, Discovery Bay, Byron, Bethel Island, Knightsen and/or any of the outlining unincorporated area, please read this – it could affect your life in a very direct way. On June 29, the ECCFPD board will meet and likely pass a budget UEST that will close COMMENT two local fire stations – an action which will haphazardly decrease the safety of citizens everywhere in this district (especially the outlying, unincorporated areas). Regardless of cuts to our vital public services, this move will almost certainly still result in the eventual bankruptcy of a district whose survival is balancing on the edge of a knife, or rather, fire axe. Fortunately, the decision isn’t yet final – we have one last opportunity to make our voices heard and try to change the direction in which this board is headed. It is crucial that all concerned East County residents attend the June 29 budget meeting at 6:30 p.m. at the Oakley City Council chambers. We are all aware of the downturn in the economy, and we know a lot of public agencies are struggling. The ECCFPD is no exception, but what you may not know is that this district has been dealing with money issues for the past several years. Unfortunately, when our local economy was bustling and home prices were soaring, nothing was done in preparation for lean times – like those we’re now facing. This newly-formed board (the directors were seated in February of 2010) has had far from enough time to properly research all of the avenues available to the district and is now tasked with the immense responsibility of immediately deciding the fate of our fire stations, firemen and women, and other vital staff, not to mention the

The scenarios proposed staffing the stations with a total of 48, 45 or 42 fire-suppression personnel depending on the specific scenario presented, and included an option to cancel the reserve program. It should be noted that with the exception of the most dire scenario (five stations, 42 personnel), all of these scenarios will still result in bankruptcy in 2012-13 unless the board is able to achieve a revenue enhancement and/or if even more significant cuts are made. On May 7, all of these budget scenarios were presented to the board in front of over 100 members of the public, who unanimously urged the board to come up with options that did not include closing stations. Despite the numerous comments made by members of the public expressing fear and concern, the board voted, and seven of the nine directors (all Brentwood and Oakley elected officials) agreed that the staff should explore just one of these scenarios: a six-station, 48-personnel model, in preparation for the June 29 special meeting. The directors representing the unincorporated areas (Chris Finetti of Discovery Bay and Robert Kenny of Bethel Island) both voted against the motion. Director Finetti and Director Kenny urged the board to hold off on trying to pass a budget at this time, and to instead explore every other possible avenue available to the district – in particular, an attempt to get voters to pass a
revenue enhancement. As a citizen I cannot even begin to express my deep concerns regarding the survival of the district if the board passes this budget scenario. Roughly speaking, the six-station scenario does the following: • Ends the CalFire contract and closes the Marsh Creek station during the “wet” season. • Closes two stations in the unincorporated areas (Station 58 in Discovery Bay, Station 57 in Byron and/or Station 59 in Bethel Island. • Increases staffing at all stations in Brentwood and Oakley to 3-0 status, and likely increases Station 59 in Discovery Bay to 3-0 status as well. The other remaining stations in the unincorporated areas would still be staffed 2-0. • Response times would significantly change in the unincorporated areas: • Marsh Creek/Morgan Territory: Response time would be 15 to 20 minutes vs. the current 10 minutes. • Byron: Response time would be 12 to 14 minutes vs. the current 7.5 minutes. • Bethel Island: Response time would be 12 to 18 minutes vs. the current 7.1 minutes. • Discovery Bay: Response time would be 9 to 11 minutes vs. the current 6.5 minutes. • The safety of all residents of East County will be at risk due to the reduced coverage in the unincorporated areas due to the way the stations work to cover for each other when engines are out on calls. Even more alarming, however, is that the Byron station is a first responder for Vasco Road incidents, and the Discovery Bay 58 station is a first responder for incidents on the Delta in the Discovery Bay area. • Residents living near closed stations may

have their fire (homeowner’s) insurance rates increased due to the closure, and in the event that residents live more than 5 miles from a station, it is possible that these residents may have difficulty retaining fire insurance at all. • This six-station option saves only $70,000 more than the eight-station model that has all stations staffed 2-0. The eight-station, 2-0 model worked well for East County for many years. In fact, it was only recently that one Brentwood and one Oakley station transitioned to 3-0 coverage. • The ECCFPD would still face bankruptcy in 2012-13. • It is inevitable that closing two stations will result in greater injury, greater property loss and potentially loss of life due to the significant increase in response times. It is critical that all concerned members of our community attend the ECCFPD special meeting June 29 at 6:30 p.m. in the Oakley City Council chambers to hear about the board’s plan for cuts to our public services, and to voice your opinion on the issue. No matter where you live in East County, this dire situation does impact you and your neighbors. I urge you to attend, and I hope you’ll tell your friends and neighbors how important it is that we show up and stand up for the safety of our families, neighbors, homes and businesses. If you cannot attend the meeting on the 29th, contact board representatives via phone and e-mail and ask them to support a short-term budget that balances the power and the pressure throughout the district (eight-station, 2-0 model) so we can properly focus on a long-term goal that sees the district thrive.

Ophelia Orchestra sparkles by Ray Carter Correspondent
Shades of Fats Waller and “Jelly Roll” Morton! The Ophelia Orchestra from Norway reprised two previous appearances at Summerset Orchards with another outstanding performance last Sunday. Led by Morten Gunnar Larsen, one of the world’s premier ragtime piano virtuosos, Ophelia consists of only 10 members but appears to have obtained a musical and instrumental balance rarely equaled in such a small group. Ophelia regularly tours the United States, making stops in places like Kansas City, arguably the cradle of ragtime music; New Orleans, where many ragtime greats began their careers; and the Sacramento Music Festival, where ragtime is a featured musical genre. Named for “The Ophelia Rag,” the group has been called “the best ragtime orchestra in the world.” Ragtime originated around the turn of the last century when artists like Scott Joplin, Eubie Blake and others took jazz to another level. The upbeat genre celebrates the piano like no other instrument, a perfect example of which is the virtuosity required to play “Jelly Roll” Morton’s “Finger Breaker,” a title portending the fate of the pianist who dares to attempt it. Larsen brings off “Finger Breaker” with aplomb, playing as if he’s bent on breaking the keyboard – hands flying and

Public urged to report dead birds Dead bird reports provide valuable information to Contra Costa Mosquito & Vector Control District staff, helping them to understand where human cases of West Nile virus might occur. Technicians are then able to concentrate their surveillance and control in those areas before people contract the disease from mosquitoes. “Dead bird reports remain our most sensitive and earliest indicator of virus transmission,” said Dr. Steve Schutz, scientific program manager for the district. “Many other districts in the nation have had to abandon their dead-bird program
since they didn’t receive enough calls. It would be a shame for us to have to lose one of our best tools to help protect public health.” The public is urged to continue to call in dead birds they find to the free state hotline: 877-WNV-BIRD (877-968-2473). Not all birds are picked up and tested; it’s the reports alone that are valuable to mosquito control surveillance and control efforts. Countywide, dead-bird reports are down 81 percent from last year; statewide, reports are down 79 percent. But the infection rate in birds remain the same. Fewer calls reduce the district’s
ability to predict West Nile virus hotspots and therefore inhibit the reduction of infection in people. Birds are reservoirs for West Nile virus. Mosquitos transmit the virus by biting an infected bird or animal and then biting a person or other animal. So far in 2010, no animals or people have been confirmed as contracting West Nile virus. Most people who are bitten by a mosquito with West Nile virus will not get sick; however, up to 20 percent of the population infected with West Nile virus will come down with West Nile fever, characterized by mild to severe flu-like
symptoms such as fever, headache and body ache, plus possible paralysis. Less than 1 percent of infected people will require hospitalization. The elderly and those with compromised immune systems are most susceptible to illness and death caused by West Nile virus. For information concerning human West Nile virus symptoms, prevention or testing, call the Contra Costa Health Services department at 888-959-9911. For information concerning West Nile virus and horses, call the California Department of Food and Agriculture Animal Health Branch at 916-654-1447.
Hero from page 5A and that our troops are very gracious for his selfless acts.” Affectionately known now as The Popcorn Man because he has sent more than five pallets of Pop Secret popcorn in the last eight months, McClelland is taken aback by all the praise he has received from local media for his acts of generosity. “They wrote an article about what we were doing and at first I didn’t like it; I wanted it to be about the troops,” he said. “But the outpouring of support from companies and individuals has helped me increase my efforts and send more packages. “I have always been patriotic, and wanted to show my support for the troops,” he said. “I started off coordinating protroop rallies back home with semis and Harleys through town.” Drawing further inspiration from veterans of the Vietnam War and seeing how supportive they were to the current troops, he realized that there was much more that could be done. At first he assumed what the troops might need and started sending care packages. What he got in return was amazing. E-mails came pouring in, thanking him for his kindness, telling him stories of how his single act of compassion raised the morale of the troops and how even this relatively simple gesture impacted the troops’ lives in a way few could understand. “I don’t think I deserve any hoopla, and I really don’t want it,” said McClelland, admitting that he’s never been a big NASCAR fan. He’s nevertheless grateful for the honor, the fabulous weekend, and the boost he hopes it will give his efforts. “I know that getting the word out like this I’m going to get more stuff for my troops.” McClelleand said his packages go to chaplains or to forward operating bases, and once included a donation of dog beds for a 10-dog bomb-sniffing unit. Another shipment, though, was returned, along with a sobering reality. “It was for a 24-year-old mother of two,” he said. “She was killed in Iraq.” He keeps the box around, and prays over it with the other boxes in the shipments that go out every other week from his church, Creekside Church in Brentwood. Those who want to donate items to be sent to the troops can e-mail Ed McClelland at dockdocktor@yahoo.com. Adam Colborne contributed to this story. To comment, visit www.thepress.net.

Cops writing fistful of tickets on Bypass by Rick Lemyre Staff Writer
Motorists using the Highway 4 Bypass, take heed: There are a lot of cops out there with their eyes on you. In the wake of the deaths of 47-year-old Gina Blackstone of Brentwood and 56-year old Anthony Soldano of Burlingame last week, the Brentwood, Antioch and Oakley police departments and the California Highway Patrol are pooling their resources to improve safety. “We’re hitting that area hard now,” said Lt. Tom Hansen of the Brentwood PD. “We’re taking a zero-tolerance approach; if you get stopped, you will get a ticket.” Hansen said that in the first three days of increased patrols, his department alone has written more than 100 tickets for speeding, unsafe lane changes, following too close and using cell phones. For now, some of the extra patrols are covered by school resource officers available while schools are out. Hansen expects the effort to continue after school is back in session, as well as when the Bypass becomes Highway 4 later this summer and the Highway Patrol becomes the lead law enforcement agency there. “I see us working really close with the CHP even after (the Bypass) is turned over to them,” Hansen said. “We’re going to keep it safe. We don’t want people getting hurt out there. These (recent accidents) are some tragic events, and we don’t want to see them happen again.” Officer Tom Maguire of the CHP said his department has dedicated its Community Response Team of six officers to augment the stepped-up patrols of the regular beat officers. “They’re really concentrating on that area,” he said. Statistics weren’t immediately available, but Maguire expects the number of tickets written by CHP officers to be similar to Brentwood’s, and that until dangerous drivers begin changing their habits, motorists can expect more of the same. “In all of my 16 years in this job, a roadway has never killed anyone,” Maguire said. “It’s what the drivers do that makes it unsafe.” Maguire also noted that even careful drivers can do things to keep themselves safer. For example, if someone riding your bumper or wants to bull his way into your lane, let him. “Make it easier for them,” he said. “It’s not your job to keep them from speeding, it’s ours. And there’s

“ We’re taking a zero-tolerance approach; if you get stopped, you will get a ticket.
”
Lt. Tom Hansen, Brentwood Police Maguire said the CHP is following up on some “excellent leads” to the driver of a pick-up truck towing a boat that is believed to have caused last week’s fatalities. The truck swerved in front of an Antioch woman’s car, forcing her out of her lane and into oncoming traffic, where she collided head-on with a motorcycle carrying Blackstone and Soldano. The driver of the car was hospitalized with
serious but not life-threatening injuries. Anyone with information should call 800-TELL-CHP or 925-646-4980. Following last week’s accident, Brentwood Mayor Bob Taylor said the city was working with other city, county and state officials to coordinate the crackdown, as well as long-term safety improvements. Three motorists have died on the Bypass in the last two months, nearly 50 collisions have occurred on the road in the last two years. “This is dire,” Taylor said. “We’ve got to enact some sort of emergency standards until we can get the funds to fix this road.” Officials are looking at increased signage, establishing a double-fine zone and lowering the current 55 mile-per-hour speed limit in the area. The Bypass is an undivided, two-lane road from the scene of Tuesday’s accident at Lone Tree Way to Balfour Road. The segment is planned to be a divided highway, but there is no money available to foot the $100 million cost. To comment, visit www.thepress.net.

In Loving Memory Carl B. Casey Nov. 3, 1930-June 17, 2010 Carl B. Casey passed away June 17 following a courageous battle with lung cancer, surrounded by his loving family. Funeral services were held Tuesday. Carl was born in Haskell, Texas, and came to California at the age of 5. He attended Brentwood schools and joined the Navy in 1950. He enlisted for four years and was stationed on Midway Island for the first two. Upon returning to San Diego for his final two years, he married Patricia Long, to whom he was married for 57 years. They were blessed with three children: Karen, Mike and Mark; and seven grandchildren: Matt, Nick, Natalie, Dante, Marinna, Courtney and Dylan. In his younger days he had a passion for fast cars and fast boats. He built his first boat from scratch, in the garage at home, starting with a block of wood and two sawhorses. Carl always owned a boat ahead of
his time. It had to be the fastest and have the best paint job. This led to many years of summer vacations camping at lakes around California. Carl would begin at sunup and go to sundown towing water-skiers or teaching someone to ski, stopping only long enough to enjoy a “cold one.” His love of cars led him to build several custom classics with his oldest son, Mike, and win many awards for his excellent work. This led to the opening of Casey’s Auto Body in 1974. As Carl aged, golf became his newfound hobby. He would play as much as possible with his family on Saturday morning and his friends on Tuesday. Carl was a great student of the game, from the books and videos to the personal lessons his youngest son Mark would give to him. He loved to stay on top of his game. In 1987 he and Pat joined their daughter Karen in opening Casey’s Travel, and his passion for travel was born. Carl B. also
loved to travel in his motor home. He and Pat and the “motor home gang“ would travel from coast to coast, playing golf at each stop along the way. They would spend the winter months in the desert of Arizona with many of their friends. From playing golf in the mornings to washers in the afternoons to cocktail hour at five, Carl enjoyed every minute of the day. Although he enjoyed traveling, he loved to be at home, working in his yard and around the house. Carl loved to gar-

sang a beautiful rendition of “Amazing Grace” and “From This Moment On.” The keynote speakers included 9-year cancer survivor, Lupe Linda Rios, and representatives from La Clinica De La Raza. Additional musical talent was provided by Eddie Ybarras’ DJ Truespoke, El Mariachi Latino and Hugh Carpenter’s Star Line Karaoke. Father
Olman Solis gave the benediction. Among those in attendance were Oakley Mayor Pat Anderson and City Council members. Lucky Store, Los Charros restaurant, Oakley Centro Mart and Starbuck’s in Oakley donated the food, and La Casa de Palmar Market donated a piñata. A fun time was had by all.

den, and he always judged his work by how green the grass was and how many flowers were blooming. The love for his grandchildren was apparent, as he would attend every function, from school plays to dance recitals to almost every ballgame played by his grandsons. His passion for baseball was evident, as just two weeks ago he attended his grandson Dylan’s game in the blazing heat. He had to be taken to the field by golf cart, but still would not have missed it for anything. Carl never complained about being sick and continued to think he could do anything. Just last week, Pat found him in the garage trying to adjust the side door – a crowbar in one hand and his walker in the other. He fought a courageous battle and appreciated the support he received from family and friends. He will be deeply missed, but never forgotten. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the Carl B. Casey Memorial Scholarship Fund at the ECC Bank, 740 First St. in Brentwood, account 806169738.

lack Bear Diner has been at it again. The latest in the ongoing string of fundraising efforts the Oakley eatery has hosted was for the guys you see here, the Freedom Falcon football team. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of Black Bear’s 7-ounce steak sandwich went to support the team, and they pre-sold 288 of them. The only thing we want to know is how they managed to sneak so many steak sandwiches past these guys. – Contributed by Jilda Fairhurst

Ever since then, we’ve won about 80 percent of our games.” Over the years the football teams have won 60 playoff games, 10 league titles, a national championship in Las Vegas, the aforementioned Turkey Bowl championship and the North Coast Inter-League Champion-

THE
The bad news is that high school freshman sports will be canceled this coming school year in the Liberty Union High School District if private groups fail to raise $48,000 by August. The good news, at least as far as football is concerned, is that if freshman sports are canceled there are several local youth football programs providing training and competitive experience for freshmen who don’t make their schools’ JV or varsity teams. Ivan Oseguera, 13, of Brentwood, signed up Saturday afternoon in the back room of The Game pizza spot to play for the East County Youth Football Lions Midgets. He quarterbacked the Junior Midgets last season, which beat Clayton Valley to win the Diablo Valley Youth Football Conference Turkey Bowl Championship. He’ll be a freshman at Liberty this year and would prefer to play for the freshman team, if there is one, or JV. But if neither of those opportunities materialize, he can go for a repeat with the Lions. Mario Camilli founded East County Youth Football and Cheer with his wife Gail 19 years ago, and is understandably proud of its track record in the competitive Diablo Valley Youth Football Conference, which includes much of the East and North Bay. “The
ship. In addition, the cheerleaders haven’t just been sitting on the sidelines – they’ve won five national titles and 195 regional titles, including eight titles in last season’s conference championship. Each Lions team fields 35 players, who pay $300 each for a season. It starts with five day per week, two-hour practices at Liberty High in August, followed by a nine-game schedule from September through early November (perhaps longer if they make the playoffs). Only a $50 payment is required at sign up, so parents aren’t out too much if their child has second thoughts. If he stays, the parents can make monthly payments, and scholarships may be available for those who can’t afford it. The cheer program is more expensive due to the uniforms and travel involved. “I’m really excited about this program,” said Camilli, who coached future pros such as Jeremy Newberry and Michael Lucky when they were kids. “When you stay in something 29 years it’s pretty hard not to be excited. I tell parents, ‘I will give you your money back if you don’t like it.’ I’ve never had to give anybody their money back. I think we have the best coaches. We produce the best athletes out there. It’s not that the other programs don’t have athletes, but you have to play competition. If you’re not playing a high level of competition, how do your kids get better?” For more information, call Ernie Young at 925-759-0667 or visit www.ecyflions.com. To comment, visit www.thepress.net.

River City Bandits triumph in Super 16 The River City Bandits played a nearly perfect tournament in Sacramento last weekend, claim four straight victories by a combined score of 58-6 to take home the Super 16 Regional Tournament Championship trophy. The Super 16 title earns the Bandits the right to play in the Super Series World Series in Texas in July. The Bandits exploded for 24 runs in the first inning of game one of the tournament, which took place at the Mather Sports Complex outside of Sacramento. That set the tone for what turned out to be the Bandits’ strongest tournament performance to date, culminating in an 11-0 massacre of the No. 2 seed Continental Cobras in the Championship Game on Sunday. Leading up to the championship showdown with the Cobras, the Bandits destroyed the Diehard squad in game one on Saturday by a final score of 29-1. Later that evening, the Bandits methodically defeated a well-respected Bombers team 11-1, qualifying them as the No. 1 seed in the tournament heading into the championship round
on Sunday. In the championship showdown against the Continental Cobras, the Bandits erupted for 10 runs in the top of the third inning, effectively putting the game – and tournament – away. Shortstop Amaury Reed made a spectacular showing in the tournament. Reed has been the leader of what has developed into one of the best infields in 11U youth baseball for the entire season. Not only does he convert on virtually every routine ground ball, he turns in the occasional Web Gems as well. To top it off, Reed crushed a two-run homer in the game against Hard 90, collecting three hits and five RBIs on the weekend, while scoring a total of six runs. Equally spectacular were Reed’s fellow infielders: third baseman Tyler Toland and second baseman Skylynd Rios. The infield provided the Bandits’ pitching staff with strong defensive support all weekend long. Meanwhile, Toland hit a cool .500 while lead-off batter Rios sent a message to all concerned in the traveling baseball circles

with his 9-12 hitting performance, including eight runs scored and six RBI’s. Darius Foster came up with possibly the biggest play of the tournament in the game against Hard 90. With River City clinging to a 5-4 lead and Hard 90 at bat and the bases loaded and two outs, Hard’s number-two batter hit a line drive into the right-centerfield gap. But Foster, who has electric speed, took the perfect route to the ball and caught it on the dead run to save the game and the tournament for the Bandits. Pitcher Xavier Christensen threw a strong first three innings against Hard 90, needing only 32 pitches to record the first nine outs. Reliever Jack Santos slammed the door in the fourth inning (help from Darius Foster) to save Christensen’s game and secure the Bandits’ spot in the championship game against the Cobras. The big hit of the game against Hard 90 was delivered by Manny Espinosa, who with the Bandits still leading by a 5-4 score, singled to left with runners on second and third and two outs to give River City a more comfortable 7-4 lead heading into the sixth and final inning. The other pitching stars were Jordan Chriss and Dareon Thompson. Chriss pitched a complete game against the Bomb-
ers on Saturday night, allowing just one run on four hits and three walks. He struck out six in the process. In the final inning, with River City leading by a score of 7-1, the Bombers loaded the bases with only one out. Were Chriss and the Bandits to allow one more run, they would have dropped from the one seed to the two seed; two runs and they would drop to the three seed. But Chriss maintained the top seed for his teammates, striking out the next two batters. When Will McConnell drove in two runs in the bottom of the frame with a solid single to left, the game ended after only four innings as a result of the “slaughter rule,” 11-1. McConnell finished the tournament with seven hits in 11 at-bats and a teamleading eight RBIs. Dareon Thompson was right behind McConnell, pounding out six hits in his 10 official ABs plus a team-leading nine runs scored and five RBIs. Coach Gabe Rios then turned the ball over to Thompson in the Championship Game against the Cobras and Thompson did not disappoint, throwing a completegame, one-hit shutout. Every single Bandit notched at least two hits, scored at least four runs and drove in at least two runs. The championship run was a true team effort. – Contributed by Tom McConnell

Bay Area club basketball teams descended on Liberty High School for Father’s Day weekend for the Team Select tournament. Attracting some of the best young talent around, the tournament featured three levels and eight teams in each bracket, which made for an exciting two days of quality basketball. Team Select National won the junior varsity level tournament, despite being younger than every team it played. The National team is comprised largely of incoming high school freshmen, and played against teams fielding mostly sophomores and juniors next season.

Heritage from page 20A good guys just come out on top. They just battled through it and kept working hard and doing the right things. They won a huge game against Liberty in the playoff. I have a lot of admiration for them as a group and Orland as a coach to battle through the situation they were in.” The softball team (17-10 overall, 10-5 league) is another Patriot success story. “Another one of those teams that got better and better as the season went along,” said Cruickshank. They peaked in the playoffs, reached the semis in NCS and lost a game to Freedom. They battled. They are a young group. They figured it out as the season went along. Ron (Rivers) did a great job with them keeping them focused. These kids have been playing softball since they were probably 5. But the playoff games are different. When you’re going to lose and go home, the game has a different feel to it. He molded those girls and prepared them for the run they made in the playoffs. They ended up having a great year. A real testament to them hanging in there and sticking together and battling through everything.” The AD also singled out girls soccer coach Randy James for helping provide the team’s first winning season (12-7-5 overall, 8-34 league). “He took over a program that had a lot of girls back, but molded them into his own

philosophy,” he said. “The girls won a big game at Liberty, probably the biggest game in school history. They also reached the NCS playoffs and got a chance to experience what it’s like to be in a playoff game. That will bode well for those young kids as they return.” Perhaps the greatest individual performance this year was turned in by golfer Lauren Condor, who three-peated as BVAL champion, competed strong at NCS and qualified for the NorCal tournament. “She had a tremendous career (at Heritage),” said Cruickshank. Another BVAL champion was the boys track team, featuring Joe Luis, who was the BVAL male track athlete of the year. Also wearing the BVAL crown were the girls tennis team and boys water polo team. All in all, a pretty amazing year for a school that did not exist five years ago. “I have a lot of admiration for the coaches and kids we have and the entire community,” said Cruickshank. “We are very well respected in the athletic community. There’s a lot of people who take a lot of pride in what we’ve done at Heritage. It’s a lot of fun to see it. “I was one of those who was there when there was no grass on the field. I’ve seen it grow all the way from the dust and dirt to what it is. I’m proud of everyone who has had a hand in it and what we’ve done.” To comment, visit www.thepress.net. ting ready for the sophomores and juniors to step in and establish themselves as leaders, because they lost eight seniors.

D-Backs win Madness The 11U Delta Diamondbacks cemented their position as one of the best 11U teams in Northern California with a thrilling come-from-behind victory in the championship game at the May Madness tournament in Manteca. Facing the defending Super NIT Major champions Tabu, the D-Backs were down 5-2 going into the bottom of the sixth. Abel Ordaz led off with a base hit and stole second. Jason Gavello, having already homered in the first inning, smashed a fastball down the right field line for a triple, scoring Ordaz. Gavello scored on a ground out by Nile Earl and after a strikeout, the D-Backs were down by one run and one out away from defeat. With the game apparently over, Brodie Garner and Connor Cunningham drew walks and stole bases to keep the inning alive. Kevin Lonergan stepped to the plate, and the Tabu pitcher threw a wild pitch, allowing Garner to score the tying run and Cunningham to advance to third and then score the winning run on the throw to third.

The D-Backs knocked off the best 11U team in Northern California by the score of 6-5 to earn their fourth championship win. The D-Backs, looking for another championship, traveled to BLD in Redding and dominated the competition, outscoring their opponents 78-18. Their offensive explosion was highlighted by a 13-4 championship game victory over the Bandits from Roseville. The D-Backs hit four homers in the championship game, including back-to-backto-back home runs by Ordaz, Earl and Gavello, plus a two-run homer by Cody Maday. They were led at the plate by Rivers (.888, 14 runs, eight stolen bases), Ordaz (.700, 11 runs, eight RBIs, Garner (.750, six runs, seven RBIs) and Lonergan (.500, six RBIs). Their pitching staff was dominant the whole tournament, led by Rivers, Cunningham and Carlos Rodriguez. The Diamondbacks have solidified their spot as a team to beat in the 11U division in Northern California. – Contributed by Abel Ordaz

COMMUNITY
Animal lovers decry Antioch budget by Dave Roberts Staff Writer The City Council approved a $35 million General Fund budget Tuesday night by cutting back support for recreation and the animal shelter, eliminating support for the Fourth of July celebration and other community activities, keeping unfilled more than 100 vacant city positions, keeping City Hall closed on Fridays, reducing the reserve fund to 8 percent and pledging to cut another $675,000, which could lead to more layoffs in the coming weeks. While every city service is impacted by what Finance Director Dawn Merchant called a “bare bones” budget, it was the $120,000 cut in support for the city’s animal shelter that brought out dozens of pet lovers to the council meeting to urge that funding be restored to the $521,000 level the city’s General Fund provided last year. Barbara Solbavarro, president of Friends of Animal Services, told the council she is concerned that the funding cut will result in the shelter being closed three days a week and that the laying off of the shelter’s volunteer coordinator would reduce volunteer support for the animals. “The potential for animal neglect is great if that shelter is closed three days a week,” she said. “It has happened in the past. I don’t want to see it happen again. Bless the beasts and the children, for in this world they have no voice, they have no choice. They have us, and we are here for them tonight.” Her remarks and those of five others who urged the council to save the shelter’s funding were greeted with applause. But one resident, Nancy Fernandez, spoke against reinstating full funding for the shelter, arguing that the shelter should be financially self-supporting and that the city’s limited funds would be better spent by providing five additional police officers. “You have a duty to support the shelter, but not at a cost to the rest of the city and police department,” she said. Councilman Reggie Moore made a motion to restore the shelter’s funding to $521,000. He argued that public health is as important as public safety, and that even more funding should be provided to the shelter than $521,000.
Fire from page 1A staff, it could stay afloat fiscally for another two years. “We can make it through to 201213,” said Henderson in a phone interview. If that is the case, as some at the meeting asked, why not dip into the district’s reserves of approximately $5 million to stave off closures for another year and buy the district more time to develop a new strategy for generating revenue? “There has been some discussion about a reserve fund and what it is there for,” said CSD President Kevin Graves. “Why can’t it be used for emergency services, which this clearly is?” “Is it a sacred cow?” said ECCFPD member Eric Stonebarger. “No, it’s not. I think that the board was just trying to put some definitions around it (the reserve fund) and how it would be used. But no, I don’t think it’s a sacred cow at all.” CSD Director David Piepho, who is also a fireman, said one of his many concerns regarding the possible closures of stations is the far-reaching impact an emergency could make not only on Discovery Bay, but all East County. “The reality is that we all drive through our own communities,” said Piepho. “And when I think about that, I think about Vasco and Marsh Creek roads. If we close stations out here, then response in theses areas are going to be hugely impacted … we don’t even have status quo (staffing) as it is. As a fireman

Many residents at the City Council’s Tuesday meeting urged the council to restore full funding to the animal shelter. “When I hear only 1.3 percent (of the General Fund budget) goes to animal services, it sickens me,” said Moore. “Having an Animal Services Department that is viable and exceptional is a top priority of mine. We need a strong police department – we all get that. But they can’t be everywhere all the time. Part of this public health component is to try to maximize the number of hours at the shelter. I feel very strongly that this is a priority of the public health and safety component.” City Manager Jim Jakel said that adding $120,000 to
I’m telling you: it’s a just a very bad plan.” Sandra Rogers agreed. “If I’m understanding correctly, then there is cash in the reserves to keep the stations open,” said Rogers. “How much worse of a crisis could there be?” Gil Sommerhalder, a reserve firefighter from Knightsen, suggested the fireboard look to options other than financial. “I understand what you’re talking about and I think the only solution aside from money, which nobody has right now, is a reserves program,” said Sommerhalder. “You’re going to have to play with the resources you have and I think reserve (program) is a good option.” The CSD board ended the meeting by urging those in attendance to spread the word about the current circumstances and attend the ECCFPD’s meeting on June 29, when a decision on the station closures would likely be made. “I want to thank everyone who came out tonight on such short notice,” said Graves. “And I encourage you to tell your neighbors and friends about the situation and the upcoming meeting …This isn’t just about Discovery Bay. We’re talking about Bethel Island, Knightsen and the whole area. We’re talking about keeping everything open for everyone.” The ECCFPD budget meeting will be held Tuesday, June 29 at 6:30 p.m. in Oakley’s City Hall, 3231 Main St. To comment, visit www.thepress.net.
the animal services budget would mean that an additional $120,000 would have to come out of the budget for other city departments. “I wouldn’t want to say tonight because these are people’s jobs and careers, but it could result in additional layoffs,” said Jakel. “We are down to fumes on everything that’s not mandatory.” Mayor Jim Davis argued that public safety must have a higher priority than animal services. “I’m a supporter of animals,” he said to Moore. “I don’t think you can find a bigger animal lover than myself. We will probably see a few layoffs in the next few weeks. What you are proposing now will have a good chance of increasing that.” Moore’s motion died when none of the other three council members (Brian Kalinowski was absent) seconded it. Moore then voted with the rest of the council to adopt the budget without restoring full funding to the animal shelter. While the council’s action has forestalled the possibility of the city going bankrupt in the 2010-11 fiscal year starting in July, that remains a possibility for the 2011-12 budget year. Currently that budget is projected to have a $762,000 deficit, meaning that city officials would be unable to pay all of the city’s bills. An additional $3.6 million would need to be found or cut in order to balance that budget with a minimal 8 percent reserve ($4.3 million if the reserve is at the preferred 10-percent level). “So we have a daunting task,” Merchant told the council. City officials “must begin immediately in the new fiscal year to ensure the challenges are addressed head on and quickly,” she stated in a staff report. Two former council members offered suggestions for addressing that challenge. Manny Soliz said business proposals should be fast-tracked through the city planning process, city officials should partner with other East County cities to bring more economic development to the area and the one day/week furlough should fall on different days for different employees so that City Hall isn’t closed every Friday. Allen Payton suggested closing Prewett Park in order to provide two more police officers. To comment, visit www.thepress.net. A woman injured in a fall is airlifted out of the Discovery Bay Marina landing zone set up by ECCFPD firefighters. Officials are concerned about response times for multiple-engine responses such as this should Stations 58 and/or 57 be closed, a scenario under consideration for the ECCFPD board of directors next Tuesday.

C
ouples searching for a spectacular setting for their wedding have a new venue
to consider. Club Los Meganos is a 34,000-square-foot resort-style clubhouse at Trilogy at the Vineyards in Brentwood set amid the breathtaking backdrop of East County’s rolling hills and vineyards.
“What’s amazing about this facility is that there is nothing like it in all of East County,” said Charleen Early, Club Los Meganos catering and events manager. “With our gorgeous views and beautiful new event center, who wouldn’t want to get married here? It’s absolutely spectacular.” The community got its first peek at the premiere facility last week during a public tour and media event hosted by
Trilogy at the Vineyards. The five-star gathering included Brentwood Mayor Bob Taylor and members of the City Council as well as local officials and dignitaries. In addition to weddings, which are held in the Los Meganos Mt. Diablo Event Center, the clubhouse was also designed to accommodate a variety of special events, including smaller, private parties, outdoor concerts and lectures. Beginning this month, Trilogy at the Vineyards will
host its inaugural Keynote Lecture Series, spotlighting a number of speakers on a variety of topics. “We’re very excited about introducing our 2010 Keynote Lecture Series, which we think will be become very popular with our members and the general public,” said Dan O’Brien, area president for Shea Homes Active Lifestyle Communities and Trilogy resident. “Each of our guest lecturers brings a unique subject to the table.
JUNE 25, 2010 We expect that this series will become a community asset, part of what makes living in Brentwood so attractive.” The one-of-a-kind multi-milliondollar facility is surrounded by 10 lush, Mediterranean-style gardens situated amid reflection pools, terraces and verandas. Luxuriant landscaping, including olive groves and rustic vineyards, highlight the 30,000 square feet of outdoor amenities. Walking trails, tennis and bocce ball courts and other outdoor amenities surround Los Meganos, offering a continuous source of exercise and relaxation opportunities. Club Los Meganos offers an abundance of star-resort features, including a full-service day spa (open to the public) with indoor and outdoor treatment rooms for nails, facials, massages and more. There are also a variety of dining opportunities and service options at Los Meganos as well, including a café (also open to the public), gourmet cooking studio, poolside cabana service, spa lounge and full-service catering kitchen. Two pools – one indoor and one outdoor – offer recreational options, and an expansive state-of-the-art athletic club featuring dedicated areas for cardio, strength-training and women’s-only workouts are available to members, as are the expansive, upscale men’s and women’s locker rooms. The club’s completion is expected to stimulate the area’s economy while providing a unique destination location for active adults, corporate gatherings and special events.

Wedding favors marry fun, function

hen it comes to creating perfection on your wedding day, it’s hard
to understate the importance of the wedding favor. The favor is the piece of your wonderful day that guests will take away with them. You want it to be something special, unique and memorable, a tangible reminder that they’ll turn to again and again. “We’re seeing more brides today turning to wedding favors that marry fun and function, uniqueness and usefulness,” says Allison Bergstedt of MyWeddingReceptionIdeas.com, a leading
online resource for brides seeking unique wedding favors and other wedding items. “Perhaps it’s a reflection of the times, as we are all tending to be more frugal and practical with our money. The favors of choice today are ones that guests will find useful long after the ceremony is over.” Here are some hints for useful favors: Utensils – “Not everyone has a mantle on which to display a pretty silver picture frame,” says Bergstedt, “but everyone has a kitchen. And the variety of utensils used in the kitchen make it possible to find a favor that not only useful, but that matches your personality.” Popular kitchen wedding favors include kitchen timers, olive oil bottles, cookie cutters, measuring spoons, ice cream scoops and bowls, cheese graters see Favors page 8B

Favors from page 7B and tea infusers. Shakers – What favor better embodies the essence of marriage – the perfect pairing of complementary opposites? Salt and pepper shakers range from fun and frolicking to classic and nostalgic to modern and bold. Coasters – Who doesn’t own a table that needs protection from water marks? Coasters are practical favor, and they’re available in such a variety of designs and styles you’ll have no trouble finding a set that flatters the theme of your wedding and keeps alive the memory of your special day every time your guests sip a beverage. Food – A wise man once said “food is the most personal gift,” and when given as wedding favors, food products can be practical and very welcome too. You can opt to go for fun, and give guests Key Lime margarita mix. Or go for heartwarming and
homespun with tea bags and a tea caddy or muffin mix with mini muffin pans. Charities – Another option gaining popularity is to give guests a token that lets them know a donation has been made in their honor to a much-loved charity. For example, you can give a small pink photo frame imprinted with the breast cancer awareness ribbon and a portion of the purchase price will go toward an organization that supports young women with breast cancer. Or use a tent card at each place setting to let guests know what charity you’ve benefited on their behalf. “Giving a useful favor also taps another hot trend for ‘green’ favors,” says Bergstedt. “Any favor that your guests will keep – and not throw away – qualifies as green.” For more wedding favor ideas, visit www.MyWeddingReceptionIdeas.com. – Courtesy of ARAcontent

Money from page 6B reports look like, and how you’ll use credit to achieve your goals. Enrolling in a credit monitoring membership can be a good way to start the dialogue. Web sites such as www.freecreditscore.com make it easy to review your credit scores and reports online. While you’ll each have an individual credit score throughout your marriage, your credit –like your lives – will be linked for better or worse. Once you’ve talked about credit, cover these conversation points next: Saving and spending habits – Is one of you frugal and the other a habitual spender? As balance is important in any marriage, your saving and spending habits should balance each other. Ideally, you should save enough to cover several months of expenses and spend enough to cover your essential needs with a little left over for some fun. Retirement plans – It’s never too early to start thinking about how you’ll fare financially during retirement. Discuss your current retirement accounts. If you have none, consult a financial planner to find out what plan is best for your needs and goals. Spending styles – How will you fund big purchases such as new furniture or your honeymoon? Will you save until you can pay cash for big-ticket items, or will you use credit? Consider and discuss how you’ll pay for bigger purchases. Taxes – Talk about when you’ll file your taxes, and consult with your accountant to see what filing status – such as married filing jointly, married filing separately or head-of-household – will benefit you the most. Marrying your money – Will you establish a joint account and deposit both your incomes there? Will you maintain separate accounts or establish a household budget account and both contribute a portion of your monthly income? Budgeting – Create a household budget and decide who will write the checks (or pay bills online). Will you pay personal expenses such as car payments and student loan payments from separate accounts? By discussing financial issues before you exchange vows, you can help ensure you start married life with a clear vision of how you’ll use money to make your lives better. – Courtesy of ARAcontent

Flowers that are Heaven Scent SAMIE HARTLEY
K
elly Cook loves weddings. As owner of Heaven Scent Florals in Discovery Bay,
she’s assembled floral arrangements for more than 400 weddings in the past nine years, but she never tires of making brides feel special.

“Flowers are the thread of the wedding day,” Cook explained. “The flowers are the consistent element of the day other than the happy couple. Flowers help set the mood, and every bride deserves beautiful flowers on her wedding day.” Selecting the flowers for your wedding is just as important as choosing a caterer or photographer, so Cook advises brides choose a florist at least six months in advance. Since she only books one event per day, she advises potential clients to contact her about eight months in advance to secure a date. “When girls get engaged, they hop online right away and start researching to figure out what they want,” Cook said. “Some girls might be really excited about the flowers and want to do that first, but if you come in for a consultation and don’t have a date picked, I can’t guarantee that I’ll be available.” So when it comes to planning your

The bride’s bouquet, such as this one designed by Kelly Cook of Heaven Scent Florals, is one of the many floral arrangements essential to the wedding celebration. wedding, Cook urges couples to set a date and pick a venue before they begin refining other details. Prior to choosing a florist, Cook recommends that couples have their wedding colors picked out. Cook, who works from her home office and studio, asks brides to fill out a pre-consultation form in advance so that she can begin brainstorming ideas prior to the first meeting. In addition to colors, Cook also likes to know what the couple has budgeted for flowers. “On average, the flowers are going to represent 10 to 15 percent of the overall
wedding budget,” said Cook. “Even with the economy the way it is, people still want to get married, but they want to get their money’s worth and still make the day special. I like to find out what budget I get to work with to create the right design that matches the bride’s personality.” Personality is a big factor when coming up with a design, according to Cook. The consultation meeting gives Cook an opportunity to gauge the bride’s style. Cook said if the bride has selected her dress by this point in the planning process, she should bring a photo of

the dress so that Cook may create a bouquet that complements the dress. If the bride hasn’t settled on a dress yet, Cook urges brides to bring in photos or magazine clippings to represent what she’d like. Cook also offers to service the wedding for an additional fee. So while she’ll already be there to help set up the flowers, she’ll stick around for the entire event to help make sure boutonnieres are pinned properly or give a pep talk to the flower girl if she’s feeling shy. “I do a little bit of everything – not just the flowers,” Cook said. “Weddings can be
very hectic, so I’m on standby, waiting to help out wherever I can. Once I even helped repair a bridesmaid’s bracelet. It’s such an honor to play a small part in this special day, and when I see the bride’s face when I deliver the flowers – that’s a special moment. Some brides cry and others are just so appreciative. I get a little emotional sometimes when they allow me to be a part of this moment. It’s an honor.” For more information about Heaven Scent Florals, call 925-634-9325 or visit www. hsflorals.com.

Destination from page 14B your guests – are met before you ever set foot on the plane.
Be realistic From childhood images of a beautiful gown and flowers to blue skies as you walk arm in arm down the aisle with your father,
every bride has a must-have list. While taking your vows in an exotic location might meet the terms of your lifetime fantasies, it’s important to consider realistic goals and ensure that your must-haves are attainable. Elderly guests such as grandparents might have trouble traveling long distances. You’ll need to balance the
travel limitations of those people you must have at your wedding with the realities of holding your event far from home. If you must have sand, beautiful water and palm trees, it might be more practical for family and friends to go somewhere in Florida or California as opposed to the Caribbean or Bahamas. Compromise will be key in ensuring you get all you desire – and have those you most love – at your destination wedding.
Remember – you’re all traveling

Travel is one of the great complications of destination weddings. Even if your bookings result in low airfares and discounted hotel rates, travel can still throw a wrench in your plans if you lose a passport or important travel document, or someone falls ill far from home. One way savvy brides deal with travel complications is to invest in a medical and travel assistance membership to ensure her and her loved ones are covered in case something goes wrong. In the event of a lost or stolen passport, travel documents or credit cards, travel and medical assistance companies such as On Call International provide help away from home. On Call International offers 24/7 assistance with legal issues, lost luggage, and flight delays or cancellations – and can also help with pre-travel information such as immunizations and important information about your destination prior to departure.
Frugal from page 2B their big day, so they might not put in the effort and attention to detail to make it perfect. When I take on a wedding, I eat, drink and sleep that day so that I can create a setup that’s perfect for that couple. The bride should feel like queen for a day, and I do what I can to make sure
And if a member of the wedding party falls ill far from home, medical assistance ranges from a 24-hour nurse help line to unlimited coverage to evacuate the ill person back to the hospital of their choice in the states. Visit www.oncallinternational. com to learn more.
Capitalize on your budget benefits One common misconception about destination weddings is that they are lavish, costly affairs with large guest lists. However, many wedding planning experts agree you can achieve a destination wedding for less than $10,000 – because the travel and potential expenses encourage most brides to pare down their wedding to what they truly want most. Instead of inviting 250 guests who might not even put you on their Christmas card list next year, your destination wedding can be an intimate experience shared with those who love you best. If you shop smart and plan well in advance, you can score some great deals at top resorts in your destination of choice – especially if you plan for shoulder season, when destinations experience less business. Finally, don’t underestimate the benefits, including cost and time savings, of working with a wedding planner who specializes in your destination of choice – and can save you money, time and aggravation. — Courtesy of ARAcontent
