Dancing with the dead

Vibrant and lively, the Carpinteria Dia de los Muertos event paid homage to the dead as it danced its way through town last weekend.

Saturday’s downtown parade and festivities at the Carpinteria Woman’s Club featured Aztec dancers, costumed saints and skeletons of all shapes and sizes. Sunday afternoon brought art workshops and more revelry to the Carpinteria Arts Center, though rainy weather cut the program short. This weekend, a second Dia de los Muertos event takes place on Saturday, Nov. 5 from 1 to 3:30 p.m. at the Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave. For more imagery from last weekend’s festivities, see page 28.

Briefly Rincon Trail selected for $6.8 million grant CVN REPORT

BOyD

Bright and early on Nov. 1, the hardcore Turkey Trot challengers hit the trail for day one of their 20-day goal.

Hikers, bikers tackle Turkey Trot

Raising funds toward the completion of Franklin Trail has inspired locals to let their feet do the work. The Franklin Trail Turkey Trot and Tread Challenge kicked off this week with dozens of participants whose goal is to hike or bike the trail 20 times and raise $100 or more by Dec. 9. Funds raised will benefit the final phase of the trail, which leads into the backcountry and completes the three-phase project started years ago. Anyone can join the challenge, and prizes will be awarded for most creative social media posts, most trips up the trail, and most money raised. An awards ceremony and celebration will take place on Dec. 9 at Island Brewing Company, 5049 6th Street.

Sign-up forms are available at the Carpinteria High School trailhead for Franklin Trail.

The Rincon Multiuse Trail Project cleared two major hurdles over the last week. On Oct. 31, the $7.8 million project was recommended for $6.8 million in funding through the state’s Active Transportation Program to encourage biking and walking. Additionally, the California Public Utilities Commission granted approval for a 110-foot long, 11foot wide bridge over the railroad tracks at its Oct. 27 meeting. The bridge is a key element of the 4,500-foot bicycle and pedestrian trail that will connect the east end of Carpinteria Avenue and Rincon County Park, filling a gap between established bike paths that are part of the California Coastal Trail.

A park-and-bicycle lot will be strategically located at the end of Carpinteria Avenue as part of the project to

attract day-ride visitors. The project will eliminate the last location within 100 miles of Los Angeles where bicyclists and pedestrians on the California Coastal Trail use the shoulder of Highway 101.

According to Matt Roberts, City of Carpinteria Parks and Recreation Department Director, now that the majority of the funding is lined up and critical PUC approval obtained, project partners City of Carpinteria, SBCAG, Santa Barbara County and Caltrans can develop a timeline for construction.

SBCAG Executive Director Jim Kemp said, “The project will provide a worldclass trail to the world-class beach at Rincon. It completes a critical missing link of the California Coastal Trail and connects Santa Barbara’s South Coast to Ventura and Ojai for bicyclists and pedestrians.”

Pruning scheduled for historic Heath Park eucalyptuses

Heath Ranch Park’s stately old eucalyptus trees, which have been saved from the chopping block numerous times, are scheduled for pruning this month as a safety measure. Beginning on Nov. 15, the park will be closed for several days while a crew prunes the largest of the remaining eucalyptuses. The trees are over a century old and are part of the park’s historic monument.

To preserve the trees while reducing the risk of dangerous limb drop, the city council prescribed regular pruning and maintenance last spring at the urging of community members who decried plans to remove the oldest, least healthy specimens. Another element of the long-term plan for the trees is to have a landscape architect prepare a draft document for the park that considers relocating the play structure and other park improvements. According to Parks and Recreation Director Matt Roberts, the draft plan is still in the works and will be made public when completed.

New CusD Food services supervisor Laurel schwartz is working to lower costs while raising freshness in school lunches.

Canalino school fourth-grader addison hardy takes her role as salad Bar ambassador seriously. here she offers pineapple to TK student Freddy Gutierrez.

New supervisor raises the bar on school food

By Jay Bushey The Carpinteria Unified School District is taking major steps to improve student wellbeing by encouraging healthy eating and reducing food waste.

Laurel Schwartz, the new Food Services Supervisor for CUSD, is leading the transition toward healthier food options.

Stepping up to the plate in August of 2016, Schwartz has used her experience as an educator and dietician to make significant improvements to the program.

“Our schools are already doing a really good job at offering healthy meal options, but I’d like to see a bit more freshness in the menu,” said Schwartz.

This freshness is not limited to how recently the menu ingredients were harvested—Schwartz also hopes to introduce students to foods they may never have seen before. Canalino School Principal Jamie Persoon said, “Many of our students don’t have much exposure to fresh foods.

We want them to try things like jicama, kale, persimmons—healthy foods they’ve

never had the opportunity to try.”

Canalino Cafeteria Manager Julie Hathaway has been very impressed with the recent changes. “When I began in 1999, we were heating up and serving food items that were sealed in plastic bags.” Since then, salad bars have been introduced to all schools in the district, and meals are prepared each day with fresh ingredients. “We cook with love!”

Hathaway said proudly.

The move toward healthier meals has been complemented with an increased emphasis on food literacy and nutrition education. Carpinteria elementary schools have all implemented garden programs that allow students to work in on-campus gardens to learn about where their food comes from. Canalino has also begun a “Salad Bar Ambassador” program, in which fourth- and fifth-graders educate younger students about the fresh ingredients offered at the school’s salad bar. “It’s very official,” said Persoon. “The students wear hats and aprons and take the job very seriously.”

One of the biggest challenges faced by the school district has been finding a way to meet budget requirements while still offering tasty, nutritious meals. “It’s difficult to keep costs low when you’re freshly preparing meals for so many students.

at First Baptist Church 5O26 Foothill Road• Carpinteria Sponsored by Carpinteria Community Church • First Baptist Church • Faith Lutheran Church

We’re working to find the right balance so that we can offer fresh ingredients while still being efficient with our time and money,” said Schwartz. While many school districts have reduced expenses by buying processed foods, which are cheaper and easier to prepare than fresh foods, Schwartz has focused on cutting expenses by being more efficient with resources and reducing food waste.

Persoon reported that Canalino has drastically reduced food waste by having recess before lunch. “Kids were too eager to get to the playground and weren’t eating enough,” she explained.

“Now they’re coming back from recess with good appetites, and they actually take the time to eat full, healthy meals.

We used to throw out 120 to 150 milk cartons every day because kids weren’t drinking them; now that number is down to about 15.”

Schwartz hopes that the Carpinteria community will be involved in future improvements to the CUSD Food Services Program. “This is really everyone’s program,” she explained. “We’re already getting great feedback from the students and parents, but we want to encourage other community members to come to the meetings, know the plan and make suggestions.”

Sixty years after crossing the graduation stage, members of Carpinteria High School’s Class of 1956 gathered on Oct. 30 to catch up on the present and relive the past. The 60th reunion, held at the home of class member Llew Goodfield, included nearly all of those who remain from the 45-member class. Prizes were awarded to Gene Boehm for traveling the farthest (Portland, Ore.), Bob Damron for having the most grandchildren (10) and being married longest (57 years), Joyce Alvarado Johnson for having the most great-grandchildren (12), Arlene Geiger Tellez for most recently married (10 days), and Eddie Ayala for living in Carpinteria longest (born in May 1937). Event coordinator Panizzon brought his 1960 corvette, with other local memorabilia relevant to the class and its impressive milestone.

“(Teacher Barbara Riggs) believed and demonstrated that every child, no matter their circumstances, could succeed.”

––Michelle Robertson

Firefighting was just the beginning

In 1987 I was a seventh-grader at Carpinteria Junior High School. I was being bullied by two eighth-grade girls, and I dreaded going to school. Back then, it wasn’t called bullying and it wasn’t discussed. You couldn’t tell your principal for fear of retaliation, and you certainly didn’t tell your parents because they would indubitably contact the principal.

It was a hopeless feeling.

Walking the halls between classes was uncomfortable but nothing compared to lunch time. It was when I felt the most vulnerable.

However, Wally Burquez, who retired last week after 38 years with the Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District, made those helpless times bearable. Wally was on lunch security duty and nothing got past him. He was intimidating and authoritative but also kind, lighthearted and safe. Ultimately, Wally was a safe place free from being physically harmed or threatened. He was a refuge from the uncertainty of mean-girl antics.

Thank you, Wally, for the different roles you have played in our community.

We have felt safe physically and emotionally and in many different ways. After 38 years of service, you have truly earned your retirement.

Aliso retiree is unsung hero

Earlier this year, one of our long time teachers quietly retired and at that time we were not able to publicly acknowledge her years of service. I just wanted to take the opportunity to do so now. At the time of her retirement, Barbara Riggs taught Kindergarten at Aliso School. She faithfully served our district from 1997 to 2016 and during that time touched the lives of hundreds of children, thus helping to form the Carpinteria we know today.

In the professional sense, Barbara was dedicated, compassionate, and had high standards for her students. In a personal sense, Barbara is one of the most kind and approachable people I have ever met.

Her smile and welcoming nature made each and every student in her class feel at home. She believed and demonstrated that every child, no matter their circumstances, could succeed. The legacy she leaves of building a strong early foundation for academic success in her students will endure for years to come.

I would like to thank Barbara publicly for her service and let her know that her efforts were noticed, appreciated and she is an example of all that is good in the Carpinteria Unified School District.

Michelle Robertson CUSD Board of Education member

Editor’s note: Barbara Riggs passed away, Monday Oct. 31, 2016, after a long illness.

BOB FRANCO for

CARPINTERIA CITY COUNCIL Part two:

“Climate Change”

Dear Carpinterians, As promised this is the second of a 2 part open letter to our community on how climate change, global warming, pollution and sea-level rise may affect our community now and in the future.

Let me remind you that I am not a scientist, but I have been selfeducating myself for many years about what the effects could be on our community from climate change. What I express in this letter are my views of what could and should be done to prepare ourselves and our community for an uncertain future. What is certain is that there will be global warming, climate change and sea-level rise. The uncertainty is how do we prepare when there is no precedence to understand and fight this phenomenon?

Because climate action has been delayed for so long, humanity cannot avoid very serious climate impacts in the coming decades-impacts that will affect you and your children. Therefore, we need to understand what is coming so that we and our families can be prepared. Make no mistake, this will be the greatest challenge we will ever have to deal with and we must be ready.

First we should discuss the problem of local air pollution. We have an enormous overpass and bridge reconstruction project about to begin. Huge diesel powered earth moving machines, trucks and traffic will pollute our valley with their fumes for years to come. Diesel exhaust is considered to be among the worst and most dangerous of air pollutants. One hundred thousand vehicles pass through the center of our community every day. Thousands of these vehicles will sit idling in the hot sun waiting for traffic to move, creating a perfect recipe for ozone and smog and there is nothing to monitor this pollution except a lone regional monitoring station located over 3 miles away somewhere in the Gobernador Canyon. I have advocated for sometime now to begin a more localized type of monitoring air pollution in our community during this construction period. I worry if the Environmental Impact Report concerning the monitoring of air pollution during the construction phase is helpful enough to protect the most vulnerable of our community, like the “sensitive receptors” that is; schools, day care centers, senior centers and senior housing.

Environmental Protection Agency guidelines say that busy transportation corridors such as ours should be monitored with monitoring systems located within feet of the traffic source.

This is necessary to provide those most affected by air pollution to at least have the necessary information to protect themselves and their family from deadly air pollution. The American Lung Association has given SB County a grade of “F” for ozone air quality in their annual “State of the Air Report”. The A.L.A. and the E.P.A. also report that anyone living within 500 meters of a busy freeway is vulnerable to air pollution. This would include a huge percentage of our community.

If elected, I would place among my highest priority the protection of those within the “sensitive receptor” environment.

Climate change is an extremely difficult subject to communicate. Even as evidence of global warming becomes increasingly evident-for many people it is too big to grasp, too distant to care about or just too depressing to think about. Climate change generally refers to all the various long-term changes in our climate including ocean acidification, extreme weather and sea-level rise. Because we are a seaside community, we will be assaulted on all sides by air pollution, global warming, climate change and sea-level rise. Many other seaside communities such as ours are already deep into protecting themselves from sea-level rise and we have not even begun. Imperial Beach, just south of San Diego has been studying the effects of climate change for years and have been applying what they have learned to prevent beach erosion and the effects of a rising sealevel, while we haven’t done anything except move sand dunes back and forth. We must form a coastal alliance with other seaside communities and pool our knowledge and resources to protect our coastlines. Organizations such as B.E.A.C.O.N. (Beach Erosion Authority for Clean Oceans and Nourishment) are necessary, but are too cumbersome and slow reacting to response to a rapidly changing environment. Funding for coastal erosion and protection will become more and more difficult to obtain as the realization of irreversible sea-level rise becomes reality. Larger seaside cities have already begun to comprehend how vulnerable they have become and will soon consume most of any available funding. We and many other smaller seaside communities will become expendable, so we must lock in as much state and federal financial support now as we possibly can because it will dwindle over time as other communities fight for their share.

The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change or IPCC is the world’s most respected authority on climate change. Thousands of scientists throughout the world contribute their expertise and discoveries to this panel so they in turn can inform the nations of the earth about how climate change is going to affect them. One of their main objectives along with the Paris Agreement is how to prevent a global warming of 2 deg. Celsius. The earth has already warmed to 1 deg. Celsius and you can see the consequences of that occurring all over the world. Climatologists report that we have spewed enough greenhouse gases in the last year to warm our earth to 1.5 deg. Celsius and we must halt 80% burning of fossil fuels by the end of 2017 to prevent the disastrous 2 deg. Celsius warming of our planet. You have seen the destructive evidence to our planet at 1 deg. warming; just imagine what 2 deg. will do and a 4 deg. increase will be unimaginable. Consider for a moment what this means and how it will affect your family and future.

Many climate scientists write extremely informative books on climate change and its consequences, but mostly they write in science speak, which only their fellow scientists can understand. Fortunately, I came across a climate scientist that is able to communicate with the average person. Such an author is climatologist Dr. Joseph Romm. I would suggest you read his book on climate change called “Climate Change: What Everyone Needs to Know”. This is probably the most informative and easiest to understand book on climate change that I have researched. There he explores the more personal questions for individuals and their families.

Questions like “How will climate change impact you and your family in the coming decades?”

And “How might climate change affect the future price of coastal property?” Or “How might climate change affect our decisions about where to live or retire?” Coastal property values are at all time highs, but this could end soon as the height of sea-level rise is adjusted higher and higher. As an example, climate scientists have warned for years that Miami, Florida is doomed.

The reason is because it has no natural defenses and is at such low sea-level. Illogically, Miami real estate is at an all time high. This is a huge real estate bubble that is about to burst and many people will be harmed by this.

Finally, I leave you with some thoughts. Have you noticed that each month is warmer than the same month of the previous year? Have you noticed that the ocean seems to be fuller and the tides are higher? What happened to the thousands of Monarch butterflies that used to visit us every year? What happened to the Cedar Waxwings that were so plentiful that they would weigh down telephone lines? Sometimes, I lie awake at nights and wonder to myself, what if I am wrong. Am I doing the right thing? What if this is not real and everything will be all right. Am I just an old fool spreading angst? I have many doubts and trepidations. I guess the main reason I have these doubts is that it just seems so impossible to believe that one day future generations may have to leave. I look at our mountains, fields and ocean and desperately want to believe that this is just not possible. At one time the general consensus was that we had at least until the end of this century to reverse climate change. Climate scientists today say this is no longer true because global warming is accelerating faster and faster. I was at one time more worried about how this would affect our grandchildren and their children, but now climatologists are saying to be more concerned about how it will affect us now. Depressing as it is, I do feel there is hope that maybe we can reverse this thing. Maybe, technology can save us. All I know is the people all over the world are working hard to do this and we must do our part. On Election Day, November 8, you will have a choice. You can vote for incumbents who speak of bike paths and vegetable gardens or vote for someone who is willing to speak out about the future of our community.

A stab in the dark

On Oct. 24 at approximately 2:50 a.m.

Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to the 4000 block of Carpinteria Ave. on a report of a possible stabbing. The reporting party stated that she heard someone yelling about a stabbing and that she observed a white sedan leaving the area at a high rate of speed, adding that the sedan had left from an apartment complex on Sawyer Avenue. The Sheriff’s Office dispatch received another call from a man who said his friend had been stabbed when he caught someone going through his vehicle on Elm Avenue.

When deputies contacted the victim, he provided the license plate number of the vehicle he said the man who stabbed him was driving. Additional deputies went to the address where the vehicle was registered to try to find the man accused of the stabbing. The victim complained of chest pain and the reporting deputy noted a “small, superficial puncture mark on his left breast area below his nipple” and then called for medical personnel to evaluate the man’s injuries.

The deputy who had gone to look for the driver of the white sedan found the vehicle parked at the address that it was registered to and upon shinning a flashlight on the interior, discovered a male subject sitting inside. Due to the nature of the crime he was investigating, the deputy held the man at gunpoint until another deputy arrived on the scene. The deputies then removed the man from the vehicle and placed him in handcuffs.

Medical personnel recommended that the stabbing victim get examined at the hospital, but since there was no major injury, the man stated that he would have a friend transport him for treatment. The man then described the incident, telling deputies that he had seen a male subject that he did not know inside his vehicle and asked, “What are you doing?” He

said that the man then came at him with something and hit him in the chest area.

The victim yelled for his friend and told him that someone had broken into his car and then stabbed him. As his friend came out from an apartment, the victim saw the suspect get into the white sedan and drive away. He “focused on the license plate,” the deputy noted, “and was able to provide that to dispatch.”

The victim and his friend both said they could identify suspect if they saw him again. At approximately 3:30 a.m., deputies drove the two friends to a nearby residential area. When they saw the white sedan with the license plate number that matched the one the victim had provided the dispatcher, they told deputies “That’s the car.” A deputy shined his spotlight on the suspect, and the victim stated that he was “one-hundred percent sure that was the subject.”

During a search of the suspect’s vehicle, a deputy found a small pair of manicure-type scissors, and since these were readily available and of the right size to have made a wound like the one on the victim’s chest, the deputy booked the scissors as evidence. The accused man was then arrested, charged with robbery and assault with a deadly weapon and transported to Santa Barbara County Jail.

Falling behind while catching up

the summerland shore I read a couple dozen books in the last two months, ordinarily enough for a year. Days spent sprawled on the couch with a good mystery or reclining in an Adirondak chair in a patch of sun. Not as dreamy as it sounds. All I had to do to lose myself in a literary haze was to come down with a walloping case of pneumonia, followed by shingles.

I had a fever for a month while they figured out it was pneumonia (it took three chest X-rays), then gave me an antibiotic that didn’t work on the strain I had. I couldn’t shop or cook or write or think straight. (My poor long-suffering husband!) The next antibiotic made me dizzy and nauseated and caused swollen ankles, but the fever went away. Yay! Too soon to celebrate. Immediately following the pneumonia’s departure, big painful sores erupted on my face— shingles. Another unpleasant medicine prescribed, an antiviral since there are no antibiotics for shingles. The antiviral doesn’t cure anything, just keeps the outbreak from getting worse. Shingles is chicken pox writ large, so for three weeks I resembled the pox victim that I was.

More reason to stay in quarantine. Plus, you feel pretty terrible.

Let me add that I’d had inoculations for both pneumonia and shingles. Only 50 percent protection, the doc told me. I was definitely the loser on that bet.

Missing fall

I hate missing the season’s turn, subtle as it is here on the South Coast. Big crackling sycamore leaves drifting down, pyracantha berries turning red, fall fairs.

Then there’s the commercial shift: watermelon bins at Trader Joe’s filling with pumpkins, summer colors giving way to orange, peaches gone, apples in. Couchbound and stuffed with pain relievers, I missed it all. What I didn’t miss was the fire on my street.

Whitney Ave. fire

The wind was up, howling down from the canyons, so we were hunkered down inside when an excited neighbor knocked on our door. The fire was two blocks away (Summerland blocks are short, only four or five houses) and we couldn’t see the fire at 2411, just smoke billowing in the wind. But I knew which house it was, a tall beautiful gray house encircled by graceful white porches. I used to call it the Delta Queen.

We stood on our corner with a group of worried neighbors. The eucalyptus across the street was writhing in the gale. Fire trucks and emergency vehicles filled the street. A police car with flashing lights parked in front of our house to block the road.

Summerlanders live in fear of the fire

and wind duo. Wooden houses are clustered close below a canyon famous for funneling fierce winds right into town.

So there was a growing feeling of panic among neighbors. Embers from the fully engulfed house could easily blow across the street and right through the middle of town.

In fact, embers did blow across Whitney, finding ready kindling in a big patch of bamboo (arundo grass) behind the Campbell house on the corner. Firefighters doused it. Looking at that blackened patch, surrounded by unburned stalks, is cause for new wonder at the skill of firefighters.

Firefighters had to work especially hard to save the house next door, close by and separated only by a burning hedge.

Saving it was their most immediate objective, according to what a firefighter told my husband. He said that 15 fire trucks from various jurisdictions had responded. South Coast fire departments know all too well the deadly combo of wind and fire.

Rondi Campbell, who lives directly across from the blazing house, reported that a strong power surge blew out their microwave oven, along with some other things, and caused all the lights to flicker on and off. The Campbells called 9-1-1, and a Summerland fire truck responded.

While the truck was parked in front of the Campbells’, the call about the fire across the street came in.

The Whitney Avenue house was the third to burn down to blackened sticks in the last six years. Not a very good average for a burg this size. Makes a person shudder to think how much worse those conflagrations might have been if we didn’t have a fire station right downtown.

The Fed WanTs To Raise RaTes!

About that fire station

Another thing I missed was the Summerland Citizens Association meeting where Fire Chief Ray Navarro presented the findings of the latest study on what needs to be done to keep the district safe.

But I got the gist from Mary Jo Yaeger, SCA chair.

The Carpinteria-Summerland Fire District’s first priority is to move local firefighters out of the Lillie Avenue fire station. That building was found to be uninhabitable and unsafe. “Dire” was the word used to describe the building’s state. Getting the men out would necessitate building a temporary station somewhere close until a permanent one can be funded and built. Securing property and building a new station was named as next in priority.

Number three on the list was repairing the Carpinteria station, now 65 years old and very much in need of updating to meet current safety standards. Last on the chief’s list was building a third smaller station somewhere between Cravens Lane and Summerland that would be staffed by two persons and emergency vehicles.

The October fire made Summerlanders edgier than ever about keeping a fire station in town. Let’s hope the fire district is able to locate and build a new temporary station very close in and very soon.

One good thing: Thunder and lightning and rain, oh my!

Volunteer carries on a family tradition

CVn

mission possible barbara dunlap For Beth Cox, education and volunteering have gone hand in hand since she was a child and watched her mother volunteer in schools. Cox has continued that tradition in full, donating time to Canalino School for 10 years and actively working for the passage of Measure U in 2014.

That’s just the beginning of her volunteer efforts. Cox is extremely involved in Relay for Life and Paddle Out For Hope/ Judith Meyer Fight Back Ceremony—two Carpinteria events that promote cancer awareness—and before that, she worked with domestic violence groups in Santa Barbara.

Here Cox tells Mission Possible why she remains so active: Q: Why do you feel it’s important to volunteer in the area of education?

A: My parents instilled volunteering in me at an early age. My mother, Sally Green, was always involved in our schools when I was growing up. When I had children, it just seemed like a natural progression to be involved in their school and to give back as much as I could.

Q: What kinds of volunteer work have you done at your children’s school?

A: I’ve been active with Parents for Canalino for the last 10 years. Five years ago, in conjunction with the American Cancer Society, I introduced Relay Recess to Canalino. It’s designed to raise awareness for elementary children to eat healthy, be sun safe and stay away from smoking. It also raises awareness of cancer survivors and helps children remember those we have lost to cancer.

Relay Recess is conducted every year in honor of Maria Sanchez, who was a dedicated administrative assistant at Canalino for more than 20 years. Canalino is the only elementary school in Santa Barbara County to run a Relay Recess, and it has raised close to $10,000 so far.

Q: You were also very active in promoting the passage of Measure U. What roles did you play in that effort?

A: I was the volunteer coordinator/ liaison for staff, teachers, parents, community members and students. We got out the word about Measure U and staffed telephone banks at our campaign headquarters.

Measure U was incredibly important.

The funds go to infrastructure improvements, school safety, electrical modernization, renovations of cafeterias, auditoriums and lockers—I could go on and on.

I’m incredibly proud of the $90 million measure, and I smile from ear to ear when I walk around campuses seeing the results.

Q: In addition to your work in education, you chaired Carp’s Relay for Life for five years, and you’re still very involved – plus you innovated Paddle Out for Hope. What inspired your participation in these events?

A: Jan. 19, 2017, will mark a decade since I lost my father, Roger Green, to stage IV melanoma. When he was diagnosed, something awoke inside me: a desire to make sure others wouldn’t endure what my father did. And with that, my connection with him is incredibly alive, and he is still with me every day.

Yet I think and ask myself, if this hadn’t happened to my father, would I be a part of the movement to fight cancer? Would I be here doing Relay, launching Paddle Out For Hope or orchestrating a 25-foot Blum & Sons Electric, Inc. sign at the top of Franklin Trail for all Carpinterians to have HOPE?

Beth Cox prepares for the event she founded, the Paddle Out for Hope.

Q: When you were younger, you were involved with Domestic Violence Solutions and the Santa Barbara Rape Crisis Center. What did you do for these causes?

A: I began working at Shelter Services for Women, now Domestic Violence Solutions, when I attended Santa Barbara City College. I always had a passion for working with women and children, and when I took the training to become a domestic violence counselor, I was hooked.

I worked as a hotline volunteer advocate and a case manager, and I subsequently ran a children’s program.

When I finished college and came to Carpinteria, I became involved with the Santa Barbara Rape Crisis Center. I spoke

on the subject throughout Santa Barbara County, and I worked at various juvenile programs. I also volunteered as a host on KCSB, talking about different topics related to sexual assault. In addition, I worked as a hotline advocate, conducting crisis counseling as well as taking calls.

Q: Why did you volunteer in the field of domestic violence?

A: The importance of the movement to end violence against women and children—and to end violence, period—goes without saying. We all deserve to live in violence-free homes, schools and work places. We all are capable of being advocates against violence.

Dia de los Muertos art comes to Middle School

Wally Burquez displays cards filled with well wishes from Summerland School students.

Summerland thanks Burquez for 38 years

Little Summerland School dug deeply into its big heart last week to let Fire Captain Wally Burquez know how much his 38 years with the Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District mean to them. The students made cards and drew pictures showing their appreciation to a man who dedicated himself to protecting the community and teaching children about fire safety for nearly four decades. The cards and the students’ visit were a welcomed surprise to the now retired Burquez.

The Carpinteria Arts Center starts another year of its Artreach program by bringing art classes to the Carpinteria Middle School. Volunteer artists offer art classes every six weeks during students’ activity day. On Oct. 21, local artist and teacher Janey Cohen presented an art lesson for the students with assistance from fellow art enthusiast Sheri Carr and parent volunteers. The middle schoolers created calaveras, or decorated skulls, in preparation for the upcoming Dia de los Muertos celebrations.

Though the skulls are traditionally made of sugar, the students used smooth river rocks as their canvases. First they planned out their designs on paper, incorporating traditional elements of the holiday such as flowers and candles. Then they used brightly colored acrylics to paint their Day of the Dead skulls on a stone, resulting in unique and delightful works of art.

Local author explores a life’s forgotten terrain

Summerland author Cynthia Hamilton recently released her newest work, “Finding Ruth.” A story Hamilton never imagined she would write, “Finding Ruth” began with a startling photograph of the author’s mother in her youth. “I was shaken by that image of a young woman bursting with confidence and joie de vivre,” Hamilton explained, “… for I had never seen that side of her before.” Having slipped in the mental quagmire of Alzheimer’s disease, Hamilton’s mother was unable to provide the background for the startling photograph, which, with its air of strength and vitality, was at odds with the difficult life she went on to live. Combing through 70 years of photos, public records, genealogy websites and what Hamilton and her siblings could remember, the author reconstructed her mother’s life. “‘Finding Ruth’ is my tribute to the woman who held her family together at all costs, who showed dignity and strength when most people would’ve fled,” Hamilton said.

Hamilton’s novel “Spouse Trap” was excerpted in the Summer 2015 issue of Carpinteria Magazine. Information about “Finding Ruth” and Hamilton’s other books can be found at amazon.com/Cynthia-Hamilton

Warriors mop the floor with Saints

A lopsided season found a little balance last Friday night when the Carpinteria High School Warriors trounced Santa Clara High School, 50-12.

Scoring by senior Jacob Garside, junior Leo Vargas, sophomore Vance Keiser and senior Alfredo Zamarripa landed the Warriors on the win column in the non-league contest, boosting the team’s overall record to 3-6. The Warriors hope to ride the momentum into their Nov. 4 league game against Malibu, which is scheduled for 7 p.m. at Malibu.

At right, Sophomore Vance Keiser slips a Santa Clara defender on his way to an impressive 88-yard passing game and 49-yard rushing game.

Senior Jacob Garside sets aside Santa Clara’s Christian Rizo. Garside led the night with 86 rushing yards and three touchdowns.

Junior Leo Vargas dodges defenders toward a touchdown on a 63-yard kick-off return that brought his team to 28-6.

Cate football falls to Thacher

By ASSiSTANT coAch DAVe SoTo

Cate’s football team wrapped up the regular season with a tough 54-34 defeat on the road to rival Thacher on Oct. 28. The loss puts the Rams at 4-4 overall and 2-2 in the Condor League.

The game started on a rough note for the Rams, who fell behind 22-0 in the first quarter. They got on the board at the end of the opening frame when sophomore Jack deardorff hit fellow sophomore drew Anastasio with a quick toss for a touchdown. deardorff helped bring the Rams even closer when he found senior Pierce Lundt for a 13-yard touchdown strike. Cate tied it at 22, when deardorff connected with Lundt once again for a 3-yard score.

The second half belonged to the home team, and the Toads built what turned out to be an insurmountable lead. The Rams two second half scores came on an Anastasio 3-yard run and senior Ryder dinning’s 4-yard jaunt.

Sophomore Carson Williams and senior Henry dawson had great games on the defensive side of the ball for the Rams. Senior Mateo Luca-Lion and junior Eric Yi both played well up the middle, stuffing many Thacher runs.

It’s never fun to lose to a rival, especially when you have opportunities that you let slip. The good news for us is that this loss doesn’t end our season. Cate will host a first round CIF playoff game against Rolling Hills Prep on Friday, nov. 3 at 3 p.m.

The Cais came into the finals as the number two seed. Jackie, a junior, could have been a seeded player in the singles draw, but chose instead to partner with her freshman sister. the combination has been deadly, said coach trevor thorpe.

Carol Cai went 18-0 in doubles league play with several different partners and, with her older sister at her side, the pair proved unstoppable. they breezed through both matches played in the oct.

25 semifinal, dropping just three games in four sets played.

Christensen/polowczak came into the tVL tournament 23-0 (17-0 in league) as the top seed. they finished their first match without dropping a game, then beat the sister-duo Summer and Sherlynn Khouvilay from Foothill tech 6-0, 6-2 in the semifinal round. Coach trevor thorpe said, “they make a great combination, with Summer’s powerful baseline game and Sarah essentially owning the net.”

Fuss pulled through a nail-biter in her TVL semi-final round. She won the first set 6-0 against sophomore tiara Nourishad of La Reina, but was forced to a third set super-breaker, which she came out of 10-7. In her quarterfinal match, she had managed a 6-0, 6-0 victory over Cara dienst of thacher.

Historic preservation takes work

We should be on our guard and not Greatest be complacent when Hits efforts are made to destroy our historical

By Bruce Morden roots, as they may Those of us who live in Carpinteria and those who visit this wonderful place we be the very support call home appreciate the small town look and feel, the friendly people, the mild of the milieu that weather and the ocean influence.

the sand, causes our hearts to fill as we appreciate the seemingly timelessness of the experience. I also especially like the sound of the trains—the whistles of the passenger trains sounding across the valley, the long freights carrying their goods to far off destinations.

I have always loved trains since I was very small. My parents gave me a toy train for Christmas when I was only 4.

I still have model trains and chase after the real ones much to the enjoyment of my son and the patient forbearance of my wife and daughter. Going down to the Carpinteria train station and watching with others as the long strings of freight cars rumble past is a joy for me. I only wish the old Southern Pacific Depot had been saved.

So many memories have faded of past generations who took the train to and from Carpinteria when the railroad was the best way to go. All the Carpinteria lemons, walnuts and lima beans shipped throughout the nation on the trains. The functional two-story Stick-style architecture of the classic Southern Pacific Colonial Yellow and light brown-trimmed

depot dominated the ocean end of Linden and was a major force in the development of what we now call downtown.

When the depot was torn down March 23, 1967 it was the oldest business building in Carpinteria. The Carpinteria Herald noted “What flood and earthquakes and fires could not do, the bulldozers accomplished in a matter of hours.” Since that time there have been several proposals to build a replica building on the site of the old depot.

We should be on our guard and not be complacent when efforts are made to destroy our historical roots, as they may be the very support of the milieu that makes Carpinteria the place we love. The lack of awareness of our heritage can result in the irrevocable loss of such landmarks as the depot. The only thing more destructive to historical landmarks than a bulldozer is procrastination. The forces that slowly erode our historical heritage are always at work. Acting for historical preservation of what is near and dear is imperative.

Hopefully, we can maintain the character of the community we love.

Carpe Dia de los Muertos PHOTOS BY MARCO MEDINA

Dancing skeletons and sequined saints were among the many draws to last weekend’s Dia de los Muertos event in downtown Carpinteria. Preparation for the celebration began months ago and included art workshops in the local schools hosted by event organizers Lisa Thomas and Carlos Cuellar. Student art was displayed, and guests were treated to a parade, live music, dances and ceremonies all revolving around Mexico’s multi-day holiday focused on gatherings of family and friends to pray for and remember loved ones who have died.

the booK nooK Carpinteria Library recommends

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California and haven’t returned. A group of friends is sent to the U.S. to bring men back to their town, as central character Nayeli also searches for her father.

The friends must travel into the unfamiliar borderlands and languages of their own country before they cross into the United States and face deportation.

Urrea delves into the shame and isolation of being somewhere you are called illegal.

However, on both sides of the border the friends also find welcoming faces.

Told with humor and an eye for the ridiculous, “Into the Beautiful North” centers on people seeking to belong, people nostalgic for what they have left behind, and people struggling to save their towns, wherever they are.

Carpinteria Library Book Club “Hitman Anders and the Meaning of it All”

by Jonas Jonasson

Per Persson, still angry about his grandfather’s squandered fortune, is the receptionist at the Sea Hotel, a former whorehouse. About to eat his simple lunch on a park bench, he is offered a prayer by a homeless, unemployed priest, Johanna Kjellander, who then attempts to charge him for said prayer but settles for devouring his lunch. The receptionist and the priest soon recognize their common interests—dislike of humankind (except, maybe each other) and desire for a quick buck. Anders Andersson, a former hitman, is released from prison and comes to the hotel to stay, and Persson and Kjellander smell an opportunity too good to waste.

They entice Anderson to continue his former business within guidelines (no child victims, just bodily harm). This plan works beautifully until the hit man gets religion and wants out. Written with understated humor, Jonasson has fun at everyone’s expense.

“Circling the Sun”

by Paula McClain

In “Circling the Sun,” best-selling author Paula McClain spins a highoctane adventure romance out of a highoctane historical figure, Beryl Markham.

Markham left McClain plenty to work with. The British-born Kenyan aviator, adventurer, racehorse trainer and author was the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic from east to west. Her own beautifully written memoir “West with the Night” offers a riveting narrative of her African childhood and her attraction to flight. Under McClain’s pen, Markham’s rocky love life shares center stage with her adventures—less reality, more pageturning drama. The fictional autobiography is this month’s Carpinteria Library Book Club selection. Open to anyone interested in reading and discussing the book, the club will meet on Wednesday, Nov. 16 at 7:30 p.m. at Carpinteria Library, 5141 Carpinteria Ave.

different mindset. What we’re talking about is developing skill, and this is a skill that will serve you well no matter whether this particular novel is published or not.

4. It Doesn’t End In November (or December… or January)

Are you participating in National Novel Writing Month, or NaNoWriMo, this year? Are you thinking about it? Do you know what NaNoWriMo even is?

NaNoWriMo happens each November, and it is when writers from around the world challenge themselves to write a novel in just a month.

Here are six reasons you should or should not participate:

To be successful as a writer, you need to develop other skills: editing and rewriting skills, notably. When November is over and you’ve “won,” you will have to take on new goals. Your goal won’t be how many words you can write, but how many times you can read through your manuscript. How many clichés you can cut. How many times you can rewrite one sentence. All good writing is rewriting, and after November you have 11 months to learn those skills.

1. The Benefits of Goals

5. Quantity Begets Quality

The best part of NaNoWriMo is that it sets a specific, measurable, and achievable goal: write 50,000 words in a month. As goals go, that’s a pretty good goal, and one you can conceivably accomplish. It’s only 1,666 words a day, or about 2,000 words if you take a day off each week.

Goals are proven to increase motivation. Participating in NaNoWriMo will help you focus, help you prioritize writing, and help you say no to distractions.

(That’s right. Television will probably not help you write your novel.)

2. Focus Doesn’t Make You More Creative

Yes, NaNoWriMo will help you focus on writing, but focus doesn’t make you more creative. In fact, focus can actively hinder your creativity. You are most creative when you’re relaxed, unfocused and able to make serendipitous connections between seemingly unrelated things.

The reason agents and publishers cringe when they get NaNoWriMo novel submissions is because they are generally formulaic, full of cliché and derivative (all that’s to say, they’re bad). That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t write your NaNoWriMo novel. Just realize you’re just writing the first of many drafts.

3. Sharpen Your Writing Tools

Writing quickly is a skill, and it’s an important skill for every writer. That’s what NaNoWriMo will teach you: how to write quickly. You can write 50,000 words in a month. You can probably even write 100,000 words. To do it, though, you might need to learn some tricks. You might need to develop a

Here’s what’s so great about NaNoWriMo: if you write more, you will write better. A pottery teacher divided his class in half. To one half, he told them they would be graded by the quality of their work. All they had to do to get an A is produce one perfect pot. To the other half, he told them they would be graded by the quantity of their work. If they produced fifty pounds of finished pots, no matter how good they were, they would get an A. Who produced the best work? The group graded by quantity. Apparently, as they produced pot after bad pot, they learned what it took to make a good one. But the group graded on quality was so frozen by the standard they inevitably failed to achieve it. Our number one goal is to write pieces of the highest quality, but the path to quality is quantity.

6. Stop Consuming, Start Creating

The detractors of NaNoWriMo say there are already enough good novels that aren’t being read. Do we really need more? The answer is, probably not. The world doesn’t really need your novel.

They probably aren’t going to rush out and buy it the moment you self-publish it on Amazon. I’m sorry, but the world doesn’t owe you anything, least of all the hours of attention it will take to read your book. But maybe we shouldn’t be as interested in that anyway.

The amazing thing about writing is that you get the chance, finally, to stop being a consumer and start creating. You may have spent you’re whole life consuming, consuming, consuming. Maybe it’s time to do the opposite. Maybe it’s time to create, just for the joy of it. Can that be enough for you?

“Into the Beautiful North”

by Luis Alberto Urrea

Luis Alberto Urrea’s novel “Into the Beautiful North” explores complex themes of culture, identity and border politics with an irreverence that grounds itself in humanity. The author of “The Devil’s Highway” traces a journey from the fictional town of Tres Camarones in Mexico, across the border into the United States and back again.

The North is not a final destination, but a means to an end. Tres Camarones faces a scourge of trafficking in a town populated almost entirely by women. The men of the town have travelled north for work

6 thoughts on National Novel Writing Month

To write a novel in just a month, you must write 1,666 words per day. So today, do just that, writing 1,666 words of a brand new novel.

Afterward, share your writing with a friend for feedback. You can also share it on The Write Practice here: thewritepractice.com/nanowrimo-thoughts/ Have fun!

ON THE ROAD On the Great Lakes with CVN

Gonzalez - Riley

Carpinterian Christopher Riley married Alexandra Gonzalez of Montecito on Oct. 8, 2016 at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Montecito.

Submit your announcements at the new CVN Website www.coastalview.com

Spelled Mankinac but pronounced “Mackinaw,” the 3.8-square-mile island in Lake Huron, Mich., is home to about 420 year-round residents. The Grand Hotel serves 700 visitors in season and offers the world’s longest porch, where Amanda McIntyre enjoyed keeping up with the news from Carpinteria with her CVN. There are no cars on the island, only horses (500 of which were originally imported from Ireland), and transportation is by saddle, buggy or cart—the UPS man even has his own horse and buggy.

McIntyre enjoyed the formal five-course meals (proper attire required, no flip flops or shorts allowed), as well as the calm and restful experience of the island.

Case-Spann - Dupuy

Debra Case-Spann and Jacques “Jay” Dupuy were married on Sept. 9 on the beach at Two Harbors, Santa Catalina Island. Case-Spann is the daughter of Ruth Case of Carpinteria and the late Howard Ernest Case of Camillus, N.Y. Dupuy is the son of Diane Dupuy of Sun City and the late Pete Dupuy of Ventura Fish Company.

“Kimberly Ford captures the vocals and inflections of the Joni Mitchell songbook better than anyone in recent memory.”

Boston cream pie and CVN

Sarah Linder enjoyed a work/vacation trip to Boston, Mass. with her mom, Joanie Green, and her copy of Coastal View News. Touring all the historical sights was very interesting and the grounds of Harvard University were stunning, she reported. She stayed at The Omni Parker Hotel where Boston Cream Pies were invented and are still made today.
