Emergency East County on fire responders teach lifesaving skills

Welcome To U-pick Season

The advent of U-pick season showcases some colorful characters and fruitful stories. Page 10

by Kyle Szymanski Staff Writer

The East Contra Costa Fire Protection District and American Medical Response medical transportation company responded to the community’s need to learn lifesaving skills during National Emergency Medical Services Week in late May. During free, hands-on lessons at Fire Station 53 in Oakley, the professional first responders taught attendees cardiopulmonary resuscitation, automated external defibrillator operation and how to stop bleeding.

“The average citizen plays a critical component in the chain of survival,” said fire board see Responders page 30

Teacher of the Year receives special visit Contra Costa County Superintendent of Schools Karen Sakata recently visited George William “Bill” Seymour’s classroom, at O’Hara Park Middle School, in Oakley.

Seymour, a 30-year teacher, has taught eighth-grade English and language arts at O’Hara Park Middle School since 1993.

Prior to coming to O’Hara Park, he taught five years at Byron Elementary School.

Earlier this year, Seymour was honored as Oakley Union Elementary School District’s Teacher of the Year.

“My calling to the classroom did not happen all at once,” said Seymour.

“For the first 10 years of my professional life, I was a printing press operator making cardboard boxes in Alameda. The money paid the bills and helped my wife and I purchase our first home. However, I yearned for something else, something more intellectually challenging. My wife happens to be the best teacher I have ever met, and one day, I began to notice the rewards and respect she earned from her

peers and especially from her students.

So at the age of 32, I decided to make a career change and went back to college to obtain my teaching credential. I truly have enjoyed teaching eighth-graders. I have learned so much from so many students – students who were my friends and those who were a challenge. I consider myself so lucky that I was able to find my niche in life, caught deep in the middle school experience.”

O’Hara Park Principal Diane Frost shared her thoughts on the honored teacher.

“I have found Bill to be a truly dedicated teacher who works tirelessly to foster a love for learning in each of his students,” said Frost. “Bill has proven himself to be an invaluable member of our staff and a dedicated champion for his students. In addition to his work in the classroom, he has volunteered his time on countless committees designed to improve the culture and climate of our schools and improve instructional strategies in the classroom.”

Getting the words right on Memorial Day

by Rick Lemyre Correspondent

As Lt. Col. David Cooper, USMC (Ret.), addressed the crowd gathered Monday, an ocean of tiny American flags fluttered across the lush grass surrounding them at Union Cemetery.

A few days earlier, more than 550 star-spangled banners had been carefully placed on the graves of each veteran by Boy Scouts from Troop 2020 and Cub Scouts from Pack 1155, whose members are glad to play the important, albeit faceless, role that has become a tradition in Brentwood and across the country.

“It’s a good way to show we care about those who fought and died for our country,” said Boy Scout Caleb Bauer.

“It’s not hard to do, especially compared to what they did for us.”

On Monday, Cooper invited guest speakers to share a few words in honor of those who dedicated their lives to our nation’s benefit. Those in attendance included veterans of Iwo Jima, Viet Nam, Korea and Desert Storm. Caps, vests and embroidered patches abounded, bearing the names of battles, conflicts and warships scarcely remembered by anyone who did not have firsthand knowledge of serving there.

The words of Contra Costa County Supervisor Diane Burgis included those spoken

by President John F. Kennedy, who called on the nation to “pause, reflect and contemplate

She noted President Ronald Reagan’s words as well, reminding us that “Freedom is never more than a generation away from extinction.”

Petty Officer and Purple Heart recipi-

ent Chris Marquat recalled the words of a philosopher, noting that the actions of those who died for us were those of “ordinary people responding in extraordinary ways” and asking that we all observe the day with “reverent celebration” rather than mourning.

BUILD THE

BACKYARD OF YOUR

There were words of reverence spoken

by Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 11789 Chaplain Ray Ansick and sharp words of command from Heritage High School Jr. ROTC members as they raised the flag to half-staff at the start of the ceremony. There were words of condolence offered to Gold Star families and to those in attendance who had recently lost a loved one who had served.

Many of the words spoken throughout the day were those we’ve become accustomed to hearing on Memorial Day: sacrifice, family, freedom, honor and “the last full measure of devotion.”

None of the words, however, did more to evoke the memories of those loved and lost than the ones spoken by Cub Scout Frederick Davidson a couple of days earlier.

As he walked from grave to grave carrying a bundle of flags, he stopped in front of each honoree and read the engraved name aloud.

“James Donovan, Navy ... Tony Scarfo, Army ... William Sattler, Coast Guard ...”

No crowd was on hand when Frederick paused and read those stones. Still, his simple act had put the names of those honored dead back on the wind once again, perfectly capturing the spirit of Memorial Day. “Even though they are not with us any more, they still speak to us,” Marquat said on Monday.

As Frederick Davidson’s example showed, Memorial Day provides us a chance to speak to them as well and to thank them.

FFA offering more to kids than farming skills Staff Writer

When many hear Future Farmers of America (FFA), the image of feeding livestock comes to mind, but for those closest to the program, it’s so much more.

Liberty High School currently runs one of California’s oldest chapters, established in 1929, and the only one available through a school in Contra Costa County.

However, those most passionate about it find many people do not truly understand the full scope of the opportunities the program can offer students.

“We are one of the oldest chapters, and we’re still going strong,” said Liberty FFA teacher Yvette Herrera, who noted students who enroll in one of her five classes automatically become FFA members – an opportunity made possible through the state’s career technical education grants. “At the beginning of the year, I sit my students down and say, what are your interests? What are you passionate about? What do you want to do after you graduate from high school? And then we turn it into an educational project. A lot want to go into politics, so I push them to do their projects on public speaking and I’ll take them to public speaking competitions and debates. I have students who love research and animals, so I’ll give them research projects or they’ll join the livestock judging team or the vet science judging team.”

For Darron Spears, a parent, volunteer and previous school board member, it’s an

Students of Liberty High School’s FFA chapter travel for competitions that can range from livestock judging to persuasive speech. This chapter is the only one offered through a school in the Contra Costa County and one of the oldest in the state. opportunity for students from all walks – not just future farmers – to grow, as the program is designed to identify the individual’s skill set and cultivate it for their future career.

“The FFA program, in my opinion, is the single greatest opportunity for high school-aged kids,” said Spears. “It’s not just one opportunity but multiple. You can compete in public speaking, research-based contests, comparative analysis, persuasive

speech; you can raise animals, plants, eggs.”

As the ag teacher, Herrera teaches five classes – biology, business economy, introduction to agriculture, soil chemistry and vet science – while managing 130 students, investing her off hours to ensure the success of student projects and animal welfare, and traveling to attend yearly conferences.

“One student’s project looks at the chemicals in the soil and how it impacts the

plants,” she said. “We have students raising livestock – they financially invest in those projects then take their animals to fair and sell them.”

This year, Herrera said 50 students raised animals either on their family’s property or at the Liberty campus farm, which housed four cattle, 20 pigs and 15 goats and lambs this season. The animals are acquired in February and sold in May. “So from February to May, I’m gone every weekend, weighing animals and taking students to conference,” Herrera said, adding that while she’s busy, the support of the district, boosters, parents and the community at large has been instrumental in the program’s continued success.

Jeff Lechtaler, another parent volunteer and booster member, donates four to six hours of his time a day at the on-site farm when the class is in the midst of raising livestock. He said those unfamiliar with the program, can support FFA by asking more questions, volunteering and enrolling their kids in the classes to become part of the long-standing tradition.

“I just wish the community knew we still existed,” Lechtaler said. “We went from a farm community that’s turning into a bedroom community – coming in and out of the Bay Area – and they don’t stop long enough to realize that agriculture is still where we’re at. There are a lot of opportunities within FFA – a lot of scholarships and work resources that FFA can open (students) up to.”

Estate Planning Considerations For Seniors: Adding Your Child As A Co-Trustee To Your Trust

by Joan Grimes, Esq.

Do you have a trust and are you thinking about adding one of your children as a cotrustee? Recently, we have met with several seniors who have had questions about adding one of their children as a co-trustee.

First, when should you consider adding a child as a co-trustee?

We generally find it is not necessary to add a child as co-trustee if you and your spouse are still active and able to handle all of your personal and financial affairs. However, if your significant other passes, or if you would like additional assistance, then this might be a good time to consider adding a child co-trustee. By adding a child co-trustee, they will be able to help manage your personal and financial affairs.

For example, my mother-in-law, who lived in Rossmoor, told my husband when she turned 85 that she wanted some help sending out her bills every month. We were more than happy to help. To facilitate this change, we added my husband as her co-trustee, which allowed him to pay all of her bills from her accounts.

Another benefit of adding your child as a co-trustee is that it allows your child to monitor all of your bank and retirement accounts.

Sadly, we have seen several seniors who have been wrongly taken advantage of and have lost substantial amounts of money as a result of fraudulent transactions. By allowing your child to monitor all your accounts, you can help protect yourself against these fraudulent transactions.

If I add my child as a co-trustee, what will their responsibilities be?

This answer will vary depending on your

rvice y Se l 9 k e We w as $9 as lo

personal situation and needs. The benefit of adding a child as a co-trustee is that your child’s role can evolve to meet your needs, as you get older. In the beginning, your child co-trustee can simply help pay your bills from your accounts.

However, if you later decide that you would like additional assistance, your child will also be able to manage your entire estate. For example, if you need additional help at your home, but don’t have sufficient funds, your child could sell, manage or move assets to pay for this additional support.

How do I add my child as a co-trustee?

Adding a co-trustee is a very simple process. We draft two documents for you and your child to sign. The first is a document appointing your child as a co-trustee and the second is an oath that your child takes promising to fulfill their fiduciary duties (i.e. promising to always act in the best interest of the trust).

While adding your child as a co-trustee can have some great benefits, it is important for both you and your child to first understand the responsibilities involved. We meet with seniors every day in our Walnut Creek office to discuss these types of estate planning issues, and I offer free, 30-minute consultations for all new clients.

“BUT MY NEIGHBORS ARE GETTING MORE…”

Riding the rails

East County dignitaries, local officials and members of the media got a first look and preview ride on the new eBART Pittsburg to Antioch rail system. To celebrate the completion of the new Antioch station, BART officials held a May 25 community ribbon-cutting celebration, which featured train rides and local entertainment. The service between the Pittsburg/Bay Point Station and Antioch is 10 miles long and adds two new stations per hour. The extension will be able to carry an estimated 2,400 people in each direction during rush hours and recently opened to the public on May 26.

Many times homeowners confuse the “Asking Price” with the “Sales Price” of a home. It is always very exciting to see homes go up for sale in your neighborhood at sky-high prices. It is even better when they sell! When you ask your neighbor, they may say, “Yep, we got what we wanted.” What they aren’t telling you is that they priced it high, it sat on the market for months, then they dropped it, then dropped it again, then took the first decent offer that came along. Sometimes this can be $30,000-$50,000 under their asking price. However, most of the surrounding neighbors just remember the initial asking price and think that’s what the home sold for. In addition, the Seller might have given a credit to the Buyer in order to get it to sell, which lowers the “net” price to the Seller by another $5,00010,000, even though the “Sales Price” looks to be more.

Something else that confuses homeowners is when there is a home for

sale similar to theirs but $50-100K higher than the price we are talking about for theirs. They will point to that home and say, “But they’re getting ‘X’ for the same home as mine!” I will politely point out that you can ASK whatever you want for a home, but until that home SELLS at that price, it is just an asking price.

This doesn’t mean that you can’t list your home higher than what the last home sold for if we think the market dictates a higher number. It just means that you need to have the right information so you make an educated decision. It is always smart to make a decision upon the facts, not neighborhood gossip. Your neighbors almost always want you to list your home higher, thinking that will make THEIR house worth more.

Banish indoor pet odors Over time, pet owners grow accustomed to their pets’ antics, messes and even their odors.

Dealing with smells is par for the course for pet owners, and many become desensitized to certain common smells. But when company is on the way or people are thinking about selling their homes, pet odors must be addressed.

• Find ways to ventilate. Odors can build up inside closed environments and prove overpowering. Opening windows when applicable, using exhaust fans and encouraging cross-breezes can air certain odors from the home.

• Clean frequently. Cats and dogs can leave behind fur, dander, food messes and more.

Eliminating the debris that pets create can reduce odors. Sweeping, vacuuming and mopping floors can help as well. Don’t forget to vacuum draperies and furniture, and consider purchasing cleaning appliances specifically designed for homes with pets.

• Keep on top of accidents, litter boxes. Puppies and even adult dogs may have their share of accidents. Cats may avoid litter boxes if they are not cleaned frequently and then soil around the house. Be sure to clean

up pet waste messes promptly. Baking soda and vinegar solutions are all-natural ways to clean up and can help remove urine odors more readily. Also, look for safe deodorizing cleaning products that can be used on carpeting, flooring and upholstery.

• Purchase an air purifier. Air purifiers can help remove odors and allergens from the air. They’re relatively inexpensive and can be placed in rooms that pets frequent.

• Wash pet blankets, beds. Launder pet beds, cloth toys, blankets and any other items that pets lounge on. Sweat, saliva and dander can cause these fabrics to become stinky and, in turn, make the house smell worse.

• Keep pets clean. Most pets are very good at self-grooming but can benefit from a spa treatment once in awhile. Dogs that spend ample time outdoors or frequently get wet and dirty may need routine baths. Ask a professional groomer what they recommend to address potent pet odors.

Neutralizing pet odors takes effort, but it can make for a more pleasant-smelling home environment.

Each day, a sea otter eats one-fourth of its own weight in food.

That would be like:

a 60-pound person eating

ea otters spend a lot of time swimming and hunting for food, but still have plenty of time for play. And watching a sea otter at play brings a smile to nearly anyone’s face.

Sea otters are mammals and need to breathe air. They rest on their backs riding the swells of the sea.

To keep from floating away, they wrap themselves in kelp that is growing out of the sea floor.

Sea otters eat crabs, clams and red sea urchins. Cracking the hard shells of these animals is a challenge, but the sea otter has found a solution. It is one of the few animals to use a tool.

A hungry sea otter finds a rock on the sea floor, tucks it beneath a flap of loose skin under a forelimb, grabs a few clams and swims to the surface. Once there, the otter rolls over onto its back and places the rock on its chest. It bangs a clam against the rock until it breaks open then scoops out and eats the morsel of meat.

ea otters have very little body fat and rely on their fabulous fur to keep them warm in the cold Pacific ________. Their fur is thick—really thick—perhaps the ___________ fur in the world.

If you were to put a penny on a sea otter, it would ____________ about 250,000 hairs. That is more than twice the _____________ of hair on your entire head.

Otter fur holds tiny air bubbles, which serve as insulation against the ____________.

If a sea otter’s fur gets __________, it won’t hold air as well. These creatures clean themselves often so that their fur can do its job.

The U-pick cherries made me do it There’s no doubt that cherries have lots of great benefits.

They contain antioxidants to protect our cells, melatonin to help us sleep and can even help reduce belly fat, arthritis pain, post-exercise soreness and the chances of having a stroke.

But they also Just make some people ayin crazy. Normal folks somehow lose their perspective, their rationality and even their driving skills the closer they get to those coveted orbs. Living in the heart of U-pick Rick territory for a couple Lemyre of decades, I’ve seen a lot of it.

I first observed the phenomenon about 20 years ago at a small house located on Walnut Boulevard. They didn’t have a farm, but they did have indoor plumbing, so a steady stream of U-pickers thought it was

OK to bang on their front door and ask to use the bathroom. The situation got so bad that they finally put up a sign: “U-pick toilet paper, $20 per square.” Problem solved.

With this year’s craziness now in full swing, I decided to offer some special awards to the most extreme examples of this cherry-induced aberrant behavior.

The “Just Desserts Award.” This one goes to the guy who parked his car and proceeded to lean over the orange fence surrounding the parking lot, happily picking away without the inconvenience of going through the whole process of checking in, walking through the orchard or paying for what he picked. He finally reached too far, tumbled over the fence and did a face-plant in the orchard, his ill-gotten gains spilling out of his shirt and all over his face.

The “That’s Not How Ladders Work Award” goes to the two guys who stacked four ladders flat on the ground beneath a see U-Pick page 11

The “Making Dora the Explorer Complicit Award” is for the man who was using his daughter’s backpack to sneak half of what he was picking out of the orchard. It’s the type of behavior that has forced some growers to ban backpacks, large purses and even diaper bags from the

grounds. I’ve often wondered why these things happen.

It could be that these aberrant behaviors are nothing more than what happens to anyone who travels, something of a tourist effect we simply need to grin and bear for a couple of months every year.

Then again, it could be the cherries.

tree, then proceeded to climb atop the pile to reach the cherries.

The “Experience THIS Award.” A lady emerged from the orchard with a bucket full of cherries, put the bucket on the table and proceeded to leave. When confronted by the farmer, she explained that she didn’t want any cherries. She was just there because she’d seen an advertisement offering “the U-pick experience.” The farmer then offered to enhance her experience with a visit from the local police, and the lady decided to pay up.

The “Why Bother Visiting the Farm Award” goes to the guy who parked in the traffic lane on O’Hara Avenue and got out of his car to buy strawberries from a hawker on the corner. These “vendors” don’t have to deal with the business licenses, health codes or any of the other overhead the farmers have to deal with, but they’re no more guilty of taking business from the legitimate operations than the people who patronize them. Please don’t.

The “I was Mostly Off the Road Award” is for the lady who was absolutely furious when people honked their horns at her for parking with her car’s rear end jutting out into traffic. “What am I supposed to do?” I heard her exclaim. “The

OBITUARIES June Elizabeth Hardy

May 14, 1952 – May 26, 2018 June Elizabeth Hardy, 66, passed away unexpectedly on May 26, 2018, in her home.

June was born on May 14, 1952 in Noank, Connecticut, the daughter of the late Nick and Alice Hardy. She is also survived by her cousin Nancy Stula of Old Lyme, Connecticut.

June grew up in Mystic, Connecticut, and attended the University of Connecticut where she received a Master of Arts degree with high honors. While attending college, she met her loving husband, relentless supporter and best friend of 40 years, Roy Greengrass.

Married in 1978, they moved to California, where she began her career teaching English to high school students.

At her first school, La Grand School in Merced County, she served as the English department head. While there, she developed a program for migrant students to learn English, inspiring them to achieve a better life for their families.

In 1981, she and her husband moved to Discovery Bay, California, where she custom designed her own home overlooking the Delta.

She taught English for 25 years at Liberty Union High School District in Brentwood and was loved by the many students she mentored, retiring in 2013 after 35 years in education. June felt her high school students were part of her extended family, and they would

Frank M. Bustos

often gather in her colorfully decorated English room to ask for advice. She had a passion for Shakespeare and American poets.

June was good-natured with a warm personality. She was active after retirement and enjoyed reading, traveling and personal training activities.

Graveside services will be on Sunday June 3, at 11 a.m, at the Union Cemetery in Brentwood. A reception will be held at her home in Discovery Bay. In her memory, a scholarship fund will be established for outstanding English students seeking to further their college education. For more information, email roy.greengrass@gmail.com.

Jan. 15, 1936 – May 27, 2018 Frank Bustos of Oakley passed away on Sunday, May 27, after a valiant battle with cancer.

He touched many lives with his humor and positive spirit.

Frank was born in Tepalcapa, Mexico, and came to this country in 1955. During his time in the Brentwood area, he worked as a farm laborer before he owned many businesses, including Pancho’s Market, El Gallito, Elegante Shoes, Chiquita Market and Ole Mole Frijole.

In 1973, he changed careers and worked for 20 years as a route salesman for Frito-Lay. He served on the Brentwood Planning Commission and school board, wrote a Spanish language article for the Brentwood News and volunteered as a firefighter in Oakley.

His gentle heart was most evident in his time as a deacon in the Catholic church, where he served at Immaculate Heart of Mary, St Anne’s, and most recently at St. Anthony’s. In 35 years of his deaconate, he ministered at the jail and, with his wife, led marriage and pre-marriage counseling, along with the countless organizations to which he belonged.

In 1959, he married the ‘prettiest girl in Brentwood,’ Graciela Ochoa.

They had three children, Celinda, Victor (Rachael) and Eric (Teresa).

He is survived by his wife and

children, along with granddaughters, Teresa, Nicole (Britt), Sami, Madeline and Olivia. He also celebrated the birth of his first great-granddaughter, Lincoln, last year.

Friends and family are invited to a visitation on Monday, June 4, starting at 5 p.m., followed by a rosary at 7 p.m. A funeral mass will be held on Tuesday, June 5, at 11 a.m., with a burial immediately following at Holy Cross Cemetery in Antioch. The rosary and mass will be held at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Brentwood.

Residents receive a 50 percent discount on the Tri Delta Transit summer youth bus pass that allows unlimited rides June 1 to Aug. 31. The Antioch City Council approved funding to support Antioch youth transportation during the summer months when this program is active. A summer pass increases opportunities to enjoy recreational attractions such as the water park and travel independently around town.

The regular cost for the summer bus pass is $50, and this discount is available for residents living in Antioch only.

Youth 17 and under must verify that they reside in the Antioch city limits. Proof of residency can be provided by the family in the following ways: a parent driver’s license, family utility bill (such as PG&E), city water bill or Antioch Unified School District student ID. Antioch residents can purchase the Summer Youth Pass at the following locations:

How To Be A Better Parent After Divorce Be Open To Co-Parenting Handling any new parenting arrangement can be very difficult. If you are able to collaborate with your exspouse, it may be easier to make plans and feel at ease. Even though your ex might have a different rules or a different schedule than you do, you can both be on the same page about your expectations.

Be Consistent After the ups and downs of the divorce process, try to maintain a stable environment for your kids. If you have some family traditions, try to keep them intact, or create new ones that your children can depend on.

Are you going through a life transition?

We are here to help you. Call us today for a confidential consultation at: 1-888-228-1098.

Each child, whether young or old, reacts to divorce differently. Some children might feel angry some might feel relieved, while others might feel sad. No matter how your children feel, it is so important to address their concerns and move forward after your divorce.

Make Time Going to court, dealing with paperwork and dealing with divorce in general can be very busy. Sometimes adjusting to life after it’s all over can be even more challenging. Try to prioritize your children’s needs and make time for them on a daily basis. Remind your children that you are still a family and even though it’s a different family now, you can still have a great time together.

I made the best decision for all the right reasons.”

“I wanted a caring and friendly environment for Mom, with personal attention and a great quality of life. I found it all right here, where Assisted Living is designed individually for those who need some help with the activities of daily living. People like my Mom. Each day Mom gets three fresh, home-cooked meals, opportunities to socialize — even group trips. Since she moved in, she’s discovered a renewed sense of energy. I couldn’t ask for anything more — and neither could Mom.”

HEALTH & BEAUTY

Make sure to properly dispose of medication Spring cleaning is a term I grew up with.

I was never really sure why we increased the amount of cleaning or purging we did in the spring, but every year my mom and dad would say it was “spring cleaning” day Senior and I knew I had to orner say goodbye to some of my outgrown clothing and toys that were not played with for many months.

Funny part was that my dad was pretty much a neatnik and he insisted that every Marla day was cleaning day.

Luckhardt That rubbed off on me, and I pride myself with a tidy home with the help of Grandpa who is also a bit of a neatnik as well.

It feels good to go through my closet and bag things that have not been worn or used in a while and give them to people who could enjoy them. Lots of sweaters, shoes, shirts and pants that either don’t fit anymore or have just become the things that I pass by for something I prefer to wear get donated.

I used to hold onto everything, but if it has not been used in over a year, it’s time to go. Along with clothing, it is amazing just how much stuff we accumulate.

What was I thinking when I bought all those kitchen appliances that are in the pantry staring up at me asking to come out and play? Let’s not even talk about the boxes in the garage!

One thing that is a must to clear out is medications that have either expired or are no longer being used.

Both prescription and over-the-counter drugs are not only useless after a certain point but may even be harmful.

Disposing of these items is imperative but must be done correctly. You can’t just flush any pills or liquid medications down the toilet unless it specifically says on the label that it is safe to do so. Anything with a needle or syringe must be carefully removed, and there are safety boxes you should use. When you get your injection medication, the pharmacist will either give you a proper box or you can get one online. The Delta Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility Sharps Program is available to residents of East Contra Costa County. They do not accept sharps from medical personnel, medical practices, assisted living facilities, senior center or any other business. This program is a community service and is intended to help support residents in their sharps disposal needs. For information or to request a 1.4 quart BD Home Sharps Container by mail, call 925-756-1990.

C

They will advise you on the process.

You can also check with the City Center Pharmacy in Brentwood, located at 50 Eagle Rock Way. Call them Monday through Friday at 925-240-9777 to get information about their participation in the program for sharps disposal.

Controlled substances such as the narcotic pain medications Vicodin, OxyContin or codeine, sleeping pills like Lunesta, Valium or Ambien, antidepressants like Zoloft and cough syrups that contain codeine can be delivered to a site that accepts these unused drugs. The Antioch Police Department, located at 300 L St., and the Pittsburgh Police Department, at 65 Civic Ave., are two possible drop-off locations. Make sure you pour unused pills or capsules into a sealed container or bag separate from the vials, and when throwing out the vials, remove all personal information from the labels.

You can mix the pills together in one bag.

Liquids and creams can be left in their original container. Secure the cap or lid and black out any personally identifying information. Inhalers and aerosol cans are okay also.

Controlled substances are drugs that have high potential for abuse and may lead to physical and/or psychological dependency. These cannot legally be accepted at the Delta Household Hazardous Waste Collection Facility.

Check our local paper or websites that have a calendar of take-back events.

Make sure these include narcotics or any medications and not just electronics or other waste product. Always call ahead to insure the facility is still accepting these items and verify the hours. If you cannot get to one of these places, you can take your unused pills out of the vials and combine them with dirt, cat litter or compost and seal them tightly in a Ziploc bag. They can then be put in your trash for pick up.

Some medicines may be especially harmful and, in some cases, fatal with just one dose if they are used by someone other than the person for whom they were prescribed. Never share your prescription medication with others or accept any from them even if they take the same one as you do. If you run out of anything, most pharmacists will be glad to give you a few dosages to tide you over until your insurance kicks in to get a full refill.

Safety is imperative and this part of your annual spring cleaning should be on your calendar.

Improving the Antioch school district

The warm weather is bringing out dogs, ants and landscaping questions on social platforms this week in East County.

…

While walking is a great form of exercise and can provide stress relief, it was anything but relaxing for some dog walkers in East County last week. The leash law in Contra Costa County was a hot topic on the socialmedia platform Nextdoor. According to the law, dogs in public places need to be on leash, under their owner’s control, but according to comments on social media, many dog owners are walking their dogs without leashing them. One commenter said their “petpeeve” is off-leash dogs, noting “it can quickly ruin a nice walk with my leashed dog.” Another dog owner stated that her dog was attacked by an off-leash dog described as “friendly” by its owner. So if you plan on taking your dog for a walk anywhere in East County, be sure to have it on a leash so everyone can enjoy their walks – it is the law.

…

Another thing hampering a nice morning or evening walk is overgrown vegetation on sidewalks. A few social media posts made by residents in Brentwood were asking for advice on the appropriate city department to contact regarding overgrown shrubs and bushes in public areas.

Many have suggested contacting the city’s public works or parks and recreation department, but others have suggested contacting their Homeowners’ Associations (HOA). If the overgrown vegetation is happening on private property (not owned or maintained by the city) then many posts suggested that the HOA is responsible for maintaining the landscape.

…

The arrival of pesky ants has had the residents in Summerset communities asking for recommendations on how to get rid of them in an environmentally friendly way.

While ants are an ongoing problem when the weather heats up, a few suggestions included using talcum powder around the foundation of the house or even putting bowls of vinegar outside. Apparently, ants don’t like either of those things and will steer clear of entering your home.

However if those suggestions fail, getting a contract with a reputable exterminator was another suggestion.

…

– Compiled by Michele Chatburn

People tend to refer to this generation as lazy, ill mannered and crybabies without looking at the things young people had to go through specifically in our time.

I say this because living in Hudson Court in Antioch for the past 18 years, I have seen a lot of things transpire uest among the youth. comment What I’ve seen is there are so many things from a child’s environment that shape them.

Hudson Court is low-income housing, where we are not allowed to have our own washer or dryer, and we are subjected to inspections. Although my dad is still in my life, growing up, my brother and I were raised mostly by our single, disabled mother.

Just like me, many kids there struggled because of the problems they faced.

It is hard for a child to grow up in poverty and have to find a way to gather the resources to become successful in life.

Growing up in Hudson Court, I couldn’t afford a computer, we didn’t have a car and I had to rely on mostly school food to feed me, because we didn’t have the money to pack our own food daily.

G

All these difficulties shaped me early on. When I got to school, I brought those with me. To the teachers, I was a problem child. But few of the teachers saw what was going on behind my actions. My mom did the best she could, but many times, there was no outside help from the school to guide me.

People may think it’s not up to the school to raise a child – that the parent should be the one – but the struggles parents face when raising a child, especially being single and in poverty, are at play. And even though my teachers were with me for seven hours a day, they somehow didn’t see my struggles – only my bad behavior.

But Chris Matthews, an English teacher at Antioch High, saw more in me and many like me. With his jolly attitude, he showed us how a person can always see hope ahead. He is a guy who stood out for anything a student had troubles with, and I saw that in him. I am blessed with people like Mr. Matthews and that I was able to rise above my circumstances and find my own path to push myself ahead – going to college, writing and making music.

It’s just unfortunate that many of my friends from Hudson Court didn’t do the

Letters The issue with parking

to the

Editor

Editor: The police department often receives calls regarding parking on the street – the calls vary from vehicles being parked for extended periods of time to residents parking in areas other than the front of their own home.

The Oakley Municipal Code allows for parking of a vehicle on the street for five consecutive business days. Barring any other violations, when we receive a complaint of vehicles being parked for extended periods of time, our staff will place a warning notice on the vehicle. If the vehicle does not move for five business days, it will be towed.

The most reported issue is typically ‘my neighbor parks in front of my house instead of his.’

The public right of way (streets) are owned by all of us. Though I would characterize it as being a good neighbor, there is no requirement to park in front of your own property. My experience at my own home is that a friendly chat with the neighbor and a request not to park in front of your home will usually get you positive results.

If you would like to report a parking issue in your neighborhood, the best way is to use our Oakley OnDemand system.

same because nobody told them they could.

Whenever I see them and we talk about our lives, they always tell me I’m going to be somebody in the world. It’s humbling but sad that some of them don’t feel like they can achieve good things as well.

I believe it’s not too late for them. They are still working to achieve their goals, but if the schools had taken more of an interest in the day-to-day skills that many kids in poverty need to get by, things may have turned out differently for them.

Living here, I still see little kids going through the same problems I did when I was younger. They don’t have enough support or teachers like Mr. Matthews, who can see past their bad behavior to their problems. Everyone has struggles they have to overcome and cannot put the blame on anyone else, but the schools should not be underestimated for what they can accomplish. Our educational system has the power and influence to transform our kids’ lives beyond just learning math and history.

I believe it’s time for a change, because all kids matter, even the ones from Hudson Court.

Goodwill will bring traffic

Editor: As a resident of the neighborhood bordering the proposed Goodwill site on Balfour between Hudson and Armstrong, I have my traffic concerns.

With the ever-growing population in Brentwood, Balfour Road has become a major throughway from dawn to dusk, from the bypass to Brentwood Boulevard and beyond. The signal light at Balfour Road and Brentwood Boulevard is inadequately set to handle traffic coming out of our development at Armstrong. Traffic is so heavy already that most times I have to wait on Armstrong through several light changes to get onto Balfour and merge into the left turn lane at Brentwood Boulevard. Some residents go back to enter Balfour at the Hudson light in order to get the chance to turn left at Brentwood Boulevard and Balfour. Adding what will probably become a major traffic contributing facility will only make my egress more difficult. I know I am not alone in this concern.

Heritage, Freedom baseball teams end successful season in NCS playoffs

by Nate Smith Correspondent

Neither Freedom nor Heritage had the ending they wanted in the semifinals of the North Coast Section Division I baseball playoffs this week, but it did little to take away from a pair of phenomenal seasons for the two local programs.

Freedom was seeded 14th in the Division I bracket but knocked off third-seed Berkeley and sixth-seed Amador Valley to reach the semifinals, where the Falcons ran into second-seed Foothill. Ryan McKinley and Neko Capsiliaris each had two hits in the semifinal game for Freedom, but it was not enough in an 11-1 loss.

Despite the loss, the Falcons showed a ton of growth and exceeded expectations down the stretch, after starting the year with losses in three of their first four games.

Junior Kyren Paris hit .432 this year, while senior Dario Gomez batted .407 with two home runs. Gomez, Capsiliaris and Travis Gobel provided senior leadership for the Falcons who went 17-10.

“It means a lot to have reached the semifinals this year, and we couldn’t have done it without our seniors,” said Free-

One of the big stories for Freedom was also its ability to thrive with a large number of underclassmen in key roles.

In the postseason, the Falcons relied on a pair of sophomore pitchers, Brian McBroom and Andrew Neil, to earn victories in the first two rounds. Those two, along with a cast of strong juniors, which includes Paris, McKinley, Chester Kniss, Nick Quesada, Jacob Bartlett and Ryan Fithian, will provide the foundation for a program that can expect to compete for a league title and make another deep playoff run next year.

“With the young talent we have, this was a great experience for them,” Evanson said. “They got a chance to not only experience the playoffs but to succeed in them. This will be huge for next year and the years to come.”

Meanwhile, Heritage lived up to seeding after winning the outright Bay Valley Athletic League title and earning the fourth seed in the Division I bracket.

The Patriots ousted Liberty in the first round, 12-2, before scoring three times in the bottom of the sixth inning to beat Clayton Valley in the quarterfinals, 3-0.

That meant a trip to top seed De La Salle in the semifinals, and the Spartans’ power at the plate was too much to handle see Baseball page 23

BVAL athletes move on to state meet

by Michael Dixon Correspondent

With an eye toward the state championship meet in Clovis, the best athletes the North Coast Section (NCS) has to offer competed at the NCS Meet of Champions over the weekend in Berkeley.

When all was said and done, Pittsburg qualified athletes in six different events, while Heritage will send three athletes to Clovis.

The Pirates excelled in the 4x100 relays with both the boys and girls advancing to the state meet via a second-place finish at NCS. The girls will be represented by freshman Ariane Nelson, senior Tatiana Crayton, senior Triniti McCutchen and sophomore Trinity Bolden. Bolden also qualified for the individual girls’ 100-meter dash, winning the race.

The boys will send junior Jalen Adams, junior Willie Harts III, senior Jalen Mitchell and senior A’Jae Boyd.

Another Pirate who excelled in Berkeley was Teaun-Tr’e Pierce. Pierce finished second in the boys’ long jump and won the boys’ triple jump, qualifying for the state meet in each event. He’ll be seeded fifth in the triple jump.

Junior John Maka, meanwhile, will participate in the boys’ shot put. He also won the discus event at NCS but did not have a distance good enough to qualify for state.

The Patriots will send a trio of athletes, including one looking to repeat his state championship victory from a year ago.

In 2017, then junior Jett Charvet called himself a dark horse but won the boys’ 800-meter race. As a senior, he won’t

be anyone’s dark horse. Charvet won the boys’ 800-meter race at NCS and will head to Clovis as the second overall seed.

He’ll be joined there by two teammates – senior Xavier Williams and junior Kidest Befikadu. Williams won the boys’ 110-meter hurdles in Berkeley, while Befikadu took second in the girls’ high jump.

While Pittsburg and Heritage will be the only Bay Valley Athletic League schools represented at the state meet, Liberty, Freedom and Antioch each had NCS finalists as well.

Junior Ediale Akhidenor finished 17th in the boys’ triple

jump for the Lions.

Sophomore teammate Jordyn Turner finished fifth in the boys’ long jump. Freedom junior Giovanni Larrea placed two spots behind Turner.

The Panthers quartet of sophomore Jayson Wade, sophomore Dejuan Butler, senior Ashton Perry and senior Dalaan Green placed seventh in the boys 4x100-meter relay, while senior Nick Mckelvy finished eighth in the high jump.

Wrestlers star on national stage Local wrestlers Dalia Garibay (Palomino Academy and Iron House Wrestling Club) and Mary Lopez (Delta Wrestling Club) recently competed at the United World Wrestling Women’s Freestyle National Championships in Irvine, Texas.

Garibay, a Freedom High School junior, and Lopez, a junior at Liberty High School, both competed in the 61 kg division in hopes of securing a spot on the USA World Team by being one of the top wrestlers in each division.

Garibay made it to the semifinals, where she suffered her only loss in the tournament to the eventual champion from Nevada.

Garibay won her next two matches, going 5-1 in the tournament and securing herself a

spot on Team USA. In June, Garibay will be going to the Olympic Training Center in Colorado to train with the rest of Team USA. There, she will also challenge for true second place.

Lopez made it to quarters before suffering her first loss of the tournament. Lopez then won her first consoles match before losing her next two matches, going 3-3 in the tournament. Lopez finished in eighth place, achieving her first All-American status.

Both Garibay and Lopez also recently competed in the USA Woman’s Freestyle state tournament in Fresno a couple of weeks ago, both earning Team California in Fargo North Dakota this coming July.

Heritage pitcher Bryson Kinnick throws a pitch during the Patriots’ 10-0 loss to De La Salle this week. Despite the loss, Heritage captured the BVAL title but won 20 games and reached the section semifinals for the third straight season.

Photo by Tony Kukulich

Baseball from page 21 on Tuesday afternoon, leaving Heritage with a 10-0 season-ending loss.

The Patriots also broke in a large number of newcomers this season, leaving them optimistic for next spring.

“As a program, this type of success is our expectation. We expect to win league each year,” said Heritage coach Kevin Brannan. “That being said, you get a new group each year, and this group had big shoes to fill, especially in the lineup. For this group to step in right away and carry on the expectations we have, it was really fun to watch.”

Heritage not only captured the BVAL title but won 20 games and reached the section semifinals for the third straight season. The Patriots did so with three

sophomores in the starting lineup, including both middle infielders – Ryan Jackson and Chaz Myers – and center fielder Keith Jones. Add in junior outfielder Jeff Heinrich and junior pitcher Nick Liechty, who relieved starter Bryson Kinnick in Tuesday’s semifinal loss, and it’s easy to see why expectations will be high once again.

“This group walked away today knowing they can only get better,” Brannan said. “We are excited for next spring.”

For now, the Bay Valley Athletic League and the Liberty Union High School District can celebrate having two teams among the final four in the section. And the bar is set even higher next year.

He runs track for Immaculate Heart of Mary in Brentwood. Not only did he qualify to compete in all of his events (100 meter, 200 meter and long jump), but he also took home medals in each (first in 100 meter and long jump and second in 200 meter). With a personal record of 12 feet, 11 inches in the long jump, he is sure to go far. His brother, Douglas Drummond, a second-grader, made it as far as sectionals and is looking to come back even stronger next year. Way to go Drummond boys!

game’s best. The pros were in town for the PBA50 Northern California Senior Classic tournament that wrapped up on Wednesday.

The amateur participants got to bowl three games with three different senior stars, with cash and scholarship prizes on the line.

For many, however, the rewards were secondary to the experience itself.

“It’s really amazing, especially bowling with him because he’s like one of the most famous bowlers there is,” said Holli DeMello as she finished a game with Professional Bowlers Association legend, Walter Ray Williams Jr. As the pros rolled from lane to lane, the amateurs stood ready to ask questions, garner tips and collect signatures.

For youngsters like 11-year-old Cody Patterson, the experience couldn’t get much better. He bowled, purchased a replica Walter Ray Williams Jr. bowling jersey and topped off the day by collecting the star’s signature.

“Good job,” Williams could be heard telling Cody after he took a turn.

“There is really nothing more I could want out of this day,” Cody said.

Fellow youth Wyatt Treat admitted he could have bowled better, but nobody faulted him for falling short of the pros’ scores.

“It’s fun,” he said. “I have never seen anyone bowl as well as them before.”

Not far away, attendee, Tracy Ngo was torn between watching her son bowl and watching over her one bowling pin adorned with about 10 autographs collected over three years at the event.

“The experience is great,” she said. “I’ll keep coming back every year.”

All excitement aside, Harvest Park Bowl Youth Director, Natalie Paris said the event allows many of her youth bowlers the opportunity to garner tips from the game’s best.

“It’s awesome – they learn a lot,” she said. “The director of the PBA is really good at matching up personalities that will be good with the kids.”

The professional bowlers have just as good a time as their fans, said senior star Ron Mohr.

“It’s a lot of fun,” said Mohr. “It’s good for us. If it weren’t for them, we wouldn’t be here.”

Aside from the experience, a handful of amateurs walked away with cash and scholarships. Cody’s three-game scratch total of 674 combined with the pro total of 843 earned him a 1,706 grand total and a $200 scholarship. Victor Arnold (scratch total of 816) also earned a $200 scholarship.

Meanwhile, Cassidy Hannan’s scratch total of 695 and Alex Hernandez’s 566 scratch total combined with the pro total of 773 earned both $200 scholarship awards.

Clark Walmer’s three-game scratch total of 868, which included two 300 games, garnered him a $500 cash prize as winner of the adult division prize, while William Grey won the senior division and $500 with a 797 scratch total combined with the pro total of 884 for a 1,681 grand total.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this property.NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed

one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet Web site http://www.altisource.com/ MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/ TrusteeServices.aspx using the file number assigned to this case 2016-01673-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.Date: May 19, 2018 Western Progressive, LLC, as Trustee for beneficiary C/o 1500 Palma Drive, Suite 237 Ventura, CA 93003 Sale Information Line: (866) 960-8299 http://www.altisource. com/MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/TrusteeServices.aspx Trustee Sale Assistant WESTERN PROGRESSIVE, LLC MAY BE ACTING AS A DEBT COLLECTOR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil

Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 02018-002.

n a show of appreciation to all their devoted customers, JC’s Holey Donuts in Brentwood will be offering one free bag of mini donuts per family, from 8 to 9 a.m., on June 9, at the downtown Brentwood Farmers Market. The treats are first-come, firstserved, so come on down and have a bag of Holey Donuts on owners John McGrath, seen here at a recent farmers market event, and his wife Alison.

Fire from page 1 President Brian Oftedal, an Oakland Fire Department captain. “Irreversible brain death starts within four to six minutes after somebody’s heart stops. Bystander recognition and community response, such as starting CPR and activating the 9-1-1 system, are critical components to getting the emergency responder en route and getting oxygenated blood circulating until more trained responders arrive on the scene.”

The event took on added importance for residents of the East Contra Costa Fire Protection District, which often struggles to respond to calls quickly.

The agency, comprising eight stations in 2008, has dropped to three stations serving over 114,000 residents and 249 square miles.

“I think these are skill sets that at least one family member needs to have,” said Oakley City Councilman Kevin Romick, an event attendee. “Doing what is necessary before medical help arrives will increase the likelihood of survival.”

While some participants practiced chest compression on cardiopulmonary resuscitation mannequin, others were listening intently to automated external defibrillator training machines or learning how to stop blood loss.

“Make sure everybody is clear, then you touch this button,” said one AMR representative, as she taught an attendee how to use automated external defibrillator machines, self-guided devices that provide audio or visual prompts to test someone’s heart rhythm, providing electric shocks if needed, in an attempt to restore normal function.

“Apply pressure,” another trainer could be heard saying as she taught listeners how to stop bleeding. “If you still feel like it’s not stopped bleeding, use a tourniquet.”

Clayton resident Jessie Lachance-Mellan took photos as she watched her daughter, who lost function of one of her arms in an automobile accident, master cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

“ The average citizen plays a critical component in the chain of survival. Irreversible brain death starts within four to six minutes after somebody’s heart stops.

”

Brian Oftedal, East Contra Costa Fire Protection District board president “From an outsider looking in, we have a very short staff and a lot of our community doesn’t get the fact that we are understaffed and we can’t just hire people and get it over with,” said Lachance-Mellan, who is now in the process of getting an automated external defibrillator at her housing complex. “Events like this, where we can get people out and not only teach them the skills but have them enjoy our staff, the camaraderie that our stations have as a brotherhood, is exceptionally important.”

Representatives of Senator Steve Glazer and Assemblymember Jim Frazier also attended the event, delivering certificates honoring the community’s fire and emergency medical service professionals.

“I would like to recognize and honor the fire and EMS professionals who put their lives on the line every day in service to their fellow community members,” Glazer said in his certificate of recognition.

Oftedal said the district and American Medical Response plan to team up again in the future to provide the community additional opportunities to learn lifesaving skills.

“Until we get to that point (where the district has adequate resources) it’s vitally important that our community knows how to help us save a life,” Oftedal said.
