In Atascadero, a crowd of close to 1,000 people gathered at the Face of Freedom Veterans Memorial to celebrate and honor the men and women who have fought for and served our country. For the second year, Paso Robles District Cemetary invited residents to drive around the cemetery grounds to view the traditional Avenue of Flags on Nov. 11. CONTINUED ON PAGE A15
In Atascadero, ceremonies led by KPRL’s Dick Mason started with a flyover by the Estrella Warbirds at exactly 11:00 a.m., followed promptly by the Presentation of Colors, accompanied by Central Coast Pipes and Drums. The crowd stayed on their feet as Lyra Stoltz, and Lucy Hope [members of the Atascadero Fine Arts Academy Honor Choir] stood in front of the Face of Freedom Memorial and gave a beautiful rendition of the National Anthem. “Why are we here? To remember the Veterans and remember what they have done for us. They have served so well. They’ve provided what we have today; peace and freedom in our land. Although it may be rugged at times, again they have served, they have sacrificed, and they have done so much,” said retired CDR (commander) David L.

By CHRISTIANNA MARKS For the Atascadero News
NORTH COUNTY — Re-emerging with a bang after a year in quarantine, the Paso-based Garagiste Wine Festival returned to its home base to mark its tenth anniversary. The unique wine festival, a runaway success in the second decade of the 21st century, resumed its celebration of the maverick, artisan winemakers in its birthplace of Paso Robles, Nov. 12 through 14, featuring 50 small-production wineries from all over California although mostly from the Central Coast. “It’s good to see everyone; it’s been too long,” commented Bill Powell, the owner of Powell Mountain Cellars. “I’m a winemaker. I want to share. And I can’t do zoom.” His confession came at the Friday night Rare and Reserve Tasting. He was among two dozen winemakers at the Pavilion on the Lake in Atascadero, the kick-off event attended by some 150 Garagiste fans.

The courts cost $250,000 in total, with the city providing $150,000 from Parkland Facilities Impact Fees, $60,000 from other sources, and the rest of the funding was all due to gifts and fundraising from the Pickleball Club.

About two and half years ago, Barbara [Sims] and some of you came to the council and said, ‘hey, we would like some dedicated pickleball courts,’ because at the time were the courts inside of a gymnasium, and then of course, out here [there are] the basketball courts. And so in 2019, December of that year, we set aside some space here,” Atascadero Mayor, Heather Moreno. The building of the pickle-
Atascadero School Board Meeting Disrupted By Protest
ATASCADERO — A large crowd attended the Atascadero Unified School Districts board meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 16. The board continued to thank the community members in attendance as more and more people filed into the room. Fifteen minutes into the meeting, the crowd was asked by Board President George Shoemaker to obtain face coverings for the remainder of the meeting. “We will have to ask you to please wear a mask, and they are available. If people are not gonna be masked, we will have to take a recess. So I’d like to keep the public meeting order open. In Atascadero, we’ve done our best to maintain as much access as we can for all the public, but that requires a certain level of cooperation from everyone. If you’re not comfortable with a mask we have a room set up next door if you want to make public comment,” Shoemaker continued. A number of people in the crowd were there to protest mask and vaccine mandates, and 18 minutes into the meeting it was said that the room was going to be cleared due to non-compliance. Twenty minutes later, the board seemed to get back on track, but when they suggested that the crowd was there for a parade, it was brought up that it was not a parade but a protest. After more excitement, it was announced at 7:47 that the meeting would be adjourned virtually and return at 8:00 p.m. On its return, the board meeting got started with Student Representative Gabriela Pullen bringing us up to date on Atascadero High School news; where she announced that the boy’s water polo team won CIF with a score of 11 to 5!

Three PRHS Bearcat Athletes Signed Letters of Intent The athletes will be playing Division 1 softball and baseball By CAMILLE DeVAUL
PASO ROBLES — On Wednesday, Nov. 10, three Paso Robles High School (PRHS) Bearcat athletes signed National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) National Letters of Intent to play Division One softball and baseball. Nov. 10 was the initial signing date for an NCAA National Letter of Intent in all sports other than football. Letters of Intent are accompanied by an official athletic scholarship agreement from the university the athlete is signing with. The Bearcat athletes signed their letters at PRHS in front of family, friends, and the community. Jaiden Ralston signed her National Letter of Intent to play for the Cyclones of Iowa State. She will be playing softball for head coach Jamie Pinkerton and his staff. As a freshman, Ralston started every regular season and playoff game for the Bearcats. She racked up 199 strikeouts for the season finishing the year with a 1.15 ERA. She was named 1st team all Mountain League that year. Ralston also plays for the California Suncats softball organization out of Gilroy. She was an outstanding player at the Alliance FastPitch tournament, one of the most prestigious softball tournaments in the nation, where she had an amazing 1.16 ERA with 33 strikeouts, only six
walks in 36.1 innings pitched. She was ranked third in strikeouts and finished first in wins for the whole tournament. Jaiden has pitched her way to the top, winning the Championship in her bracket. As she joins the Cyclones of Iowa State, we know she will be a great addition to this BIG 12 conference team. Additionally, Bryson Hoier, Carson Turnquist signed Letters of Intent for baseball. Turnquist has been a member of the Bearcat Baseball team at the varsity level for the past four years. He will be signing with the University of Oklahoma, where he plans to study either Health Science or Business. As a PRHS team member, Turnquist was awarded the California Collegiate athletic association (CCAA) first-team all-league honor in 2021. He batted .400 with seven home runs and 45 RBI’s last season. As a pitcher, he went 6-1 with a 1.40 ERA and had 68 strikeouts in just 40 innings pitched. Last but not least, Hoier has been a member of the very successful baseball team for the past four years, all on varsity. He will be signing with Loyola Marymount University and plans on studying business. While at PRHS, Bryson earned CCAA Second Team All-League in 2021 and batted .391 with four home runs and 18 RBI’s last season, along with 21 stolen bases. Bryson has improved every season with the Bearcat Baseball program. His IQ, work ethic, and passion for the game are all phenomenal. He is always trying to find ways to get better and break down the game in more detail to fine-tune his craft.

Decision Made to Advance Chumash Heritage National Marine Sanctuary Designation
Sierra Vista and Twin Cities Earn Top Grade in Patient Safety
Learn more about the proposed sanctuary and how you can support it
STAFF REPORT STAFF REPORT
WASHINGTON, DC — On Nov. 9, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) published a Notice of Intent advancing the public process to designate the Chumash Heritage National Marine Sanctuary (CHNMS). Violet Sage Walker, the Northern Chumash Tribal Council Chairwoman hails this announcement as a crucial first step towards President Biden’s initiative to conserve and restore at least 30 percent of our nation’s lands and waters by 2030. “Successfully designating the Chumash Heritage National Marine Sanctuary will protect ocean life, sacred Chumash sites, strengthen Indigenous communities and serve as a model of environmental justice,” Sage Walker stated. “Today’s announcement marks a major milestone after more than 40 years of tireless advocacy for ocean protection, and also represents the first tribally nominated sanctuary in the nation. Today my father would be proud. This is one of the things he wanted to see the most.” Fred Collins, the late Tribal Chair and Nominator, had a lifelong vision for establishing the Chumash Heritage NMS to conserve precious life and cultural sacred sites in heritage waters. “Grandmother Ocean has been providing life to the Chumash Peoples for over ten thousand years, now is the time for all communities to work together and assist her in rebuilding her Vibrant Thrivability for all future generations,” Collins said before he passed into spirit on Oct. 1, just 40 days before this announcement. Chumash have been the guardians of the Central Coast of California since time immemorial and look forward to working with NOAA and other partners to collaboratively steward this critical coastline for the benefit of current
and future generations. They join with Indigenous Communities around the world, working together to find solutions to better protect the Earth and all who depend upon it. They would also like to thank their grassroots supporters like the Sierra Club, Surfrider Foundation, Marine Sanctuary Alliance, Environmental Defense Center, Wishtoyo Foundation, and thousands of allies for their commitment and hard work to get them to this point. Rep. Salud Carbajal (CA-24), Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), and Senator Alex Padilla (D-CA) wrote to the U.S. Commerce Secretary and the NOAA Administrator in August to urge advancement of the proposed Chumash Heritage NMS for designation, noting: “The waters off the Central Coast of California are some of the most biologically diverse and ecologically productive regions in the world. This spectacular marine environment includes feeding grounds for numerous species of whales and dolphins, sea otter populations, kelp forests, and is home to vital commercial and recreational fisheries. Designating this area as a marine sanctuary would ensure we continue to be good stewards of these natural resources while maintaining sustainable access for commercial and recreational fishing.” “It’s impossible to fully calculate all the benefits the Central Coast will receive as a result of the ecosystem-based management that a national marine sanctuary brings, as marine sanctuaries offer environmental protections other regulations don’t,” noted Andrew Christie, Director of the Santa Lucia Sierra Club. All of their many supporters should take this opportunity to celebrate this moment as they continue all their efforts towards ultimate designation. Visit chumashsanctuary.org to learn more about the proposed sanctuary.

INTERNATIONAL EDUCATION
Cal Poly Ranks First in the Nation in Study Abroad Survey Institute of International Education shares data on first day on International Education Week STAFF REPORT
SAN LUIS OBISPO — Cal Poly sent the most students on study abroad experiences among master’s-level institutions, according to the Institute of International Education’s annual statistical survey of U.S. campuses for the 2019-20 academic year released today in celebration of International Education Week. “Study abroad at Cal Poly remains an integral aspect of our students’ degree programs and reflects the global mindset of our students, faculty, and staff,” said Cari Vanderkar, Cal Poly’s senior international officer and assistant vice provost for international programs. “We are thrilled by the ranking and look forward to our continued strong participation in study abroad and international education generally as the world navigates out of the pandemic.” Since 2000, Cal Poly has ranked as a top sender in the nation among master’s-level universities for internationally bound students. In the 2019-20 year, the most current numbers available, Cal Poly sent 863 students abroad to 46 nations (including some multi-country programs). Participation was through Winter 2020, as study abroad was suspended worldwide in March 2020 because of the COVID19 pandemic. In 2018-19, Cal Poly sent more than 1,200 students abroad. Study abroad resumed in Fall 2021, with around 150 Cal Poly students currently abroad.
In the past two decades, the university also has ranked in the top 10 among those who study abroad for the longterm (an academic year). For mid-length programs, which run for a semester or a quarter, Cal Poly ranked first in the nation for the third straight year with 786 participants. It has ranked in the top eight since 2004-05. International Education Week (IEW ), Nov. 15-19, celebrates the benefits of international education and exchange worldwide. This joint initiative of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Department of Education promotes programs that prepare Americans for a global environment and attract future leaders from abroad to study, learn, and exchange experiences. Cal Poly is celebrating International Education Week with a host of events to provide opportunities for the campus community to learn more about study abroad, international perspectives and participate in educational and cultural programming. A full list of events is available at international.calpoly.edu/ international-education-week/. Cal Poly’s vision for internationalization is to provide foundational experiential learning, teaching, service, and scholarship opportunities at home and abroad that will best equip graduates and the campus community at large to solve complex global challenges sustainably, ethically, and inclusively. The Institute of International Education is the leading not-for-profit educational and cultural exchange organization in the U.S. It has conducted the Open Doors Report annual survey since 1919, and since the early 1970s, it has been aided by support from the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.

SAN LUIS OBISPO/TEMPLETON — Sierra Vista Regional Medical Center in San Luis Obispo and Twin Cities Community Hospital in Templeton both received an “A” grade in the Fall 2021 Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade, a national distinction recognizing Tenet Health Central Coast’s achievements in protecting patients from errors, injuries, accidents, and infections. The Leapfrog Group is an independent national watchdog organization committed to health care quality and safety. Of particular note is that Sierra Vista has achieved consecutive A’s every reporting period since the ratings first came out in 2012 – only 23 hospitals nationwide have achieved straight A’s in the 20 reporting cycles since 2012. “This recognition really says that no matter what challenges we face – whether it is a surge from the Covid-19 variants, stresses on workforce availability, or challenges with supply chains – our teams keep patient safety as a top priority,” said Mark Lisa, CEO of Tenet Health Central Coast. “It is precisely this commitment to safety that allows and empowers the unique, top-level services we provide, such as the County’s Trauma Center, the County’s only level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), the region’s only Advanced Thrombectomy-capable Center for stroke treatment, the County’s only hospital-based Wound Care Clinic, and more.” The Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade is the only hospital rating program based exclusively on hospital prevention of medical errors and harms to patients. The grading system is peer-reviewed, fully transparent, and free to the public. Grades are updated twice annually, in the fall and spring. The Hospital Safety Grade is designed to give consumers information they can use to make healthcare decisions for themselves or a loved one. The Leapfrog Group assigns A, B, C, D, or F grades to hospitals across the country based on their ability to prevent errors, injuries, accidents, and infections. “Tenet Health Central Coast has made a clear and consistent effort to protect patients from harm,” said Leah Binder, President and CEO of The Leapfrog Group. “Establishing and maintaining systems that optimize patient safety is especially critical during times of crisis. I am grateful to the leadership and workforce of Tenet Health Central Coast for their unwavering dedication to protecting patients.” To see both hospitals’ full grade details and to access patient tips for staying safe in the hospital, visit hospitalsafetygrade.org.

Supervisors Set Priorities For Upcoming Year Between budget and staff focus, priorities are discussed for the next year By MELISSA GUERRA
SAN LUIS OBISPO — The San Luis Obispo Board of Supervisors met for a regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 16 at 9 a.m. Vice-Chairperson Bruce Gibson led the meeting in the absence of Chairperson Lynn Compton, who was expected to arrive shortly into the meeting. The meeting opened with approval of the consent agenda with three items pulled
from the agenda for their own presentation. All items were approved 4-0. Following the consent agenda, the Board heard a presentation recognizing November as “National Adoption Month” in San Luis Obispo. This past year there have been 42 adoptions finalized or set to be final before the end of the year. However, there are only 100 foster families in the county for the nearly 300 foster youth, and specifically, the county is in need of families willing to care for school-aged children. Anyone who is interested in getting involved can visit slofostercare.com. The next two presentations were to proclaim November 2021 as “Thank a Veteran Month” and a resolution to recognize the San Luis Obispo Vet Center for their service to the veteran community. Chairperson Compton returned to the meeting as they went into Board business, starting with the review of the 2022-23
budget goals and policies. The goal of this plan is to ensure that programs that are created have the funds to be continued throughout the year. The next budget update will be in Mid February, when it will be analyzed to see where the actual budget lined up in contrast to the forecast. The Board had a chance to give their input on priorities within the budget. Economic development and housing in the county was brought up by Supervisor Debbie Arnold, who asked that it be a priority as a project that has been in process but needs to remain on the list. Supervisor Gibson made a motion to go with staffs recommendations plus economic development and housing, with an emphasis on infrastructure and water resiliency. The motion passed 5-0. Item 37 was to direct staff on the Board’s priorities over the upcoming year. This item brought a large discussion around rural camping and what many

Templeton Addresses SB 1383 Changes to Business and Residential Waste Procedures
The MOA with the IWMA is approved By MELISSA GUERRA
TEMPLETON — Templeton Community Services District held a regularly scheduled meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 16, at 7 p.m. for open session. The meeting covered the upcoming change to trash and recycling as part of a statewide effort through SB 1383 to reduce organic materials that are currently being put into landfills. The goal is to decrease the organic waste in the landfill by 75 percent by 2025. Regulations require all cities, residential households, multifamily dwellings, commercial businesses, commercial edible food generators, waste haulers, and food recovery organizations to reduce organic waste disposal in landfills. This will be achieved by using the green waste bin for all organic materials, food-soiled paper, and not just yard clippings. There will likely be a rate increase through Integrated Waste Management Authority (IWMA) as well as the direct cost associated with these collection programs. The IWMA fee will likely increase about 2 percent, bringing it to 4.3 percent. This will all begin in January, which will start with a two-year education roll out program. Director Debra Logan expressed concerns about the costs and the potential they could have to increase with the new oversight that will come with the new processes; however, as it is a state mandate to reduce the organic waste in landfills, there is no other option for the County at this time than to approve the ordinance. The ordinance passed 5-0 and will be on the Dec. 7 meeting agenda to be fully passed. The next item was the amendment to the IWMA Memorandum of Agreement (MOA). The San Luis Obispo County IWMA was originally formed as a Joint Powers Authority ( JPA) by the cities and County in 1994. In 2001, the Special District that had solid waste authority, including Templeton CSD, executed an MOA together with the original members of the JPA. With the County exiting the IWMA, amendments are required to allow the IWMA to continue. While the Special Districts still only hold one voting seat on the panel, but with the County leaving, many of the representatives are no longer needed, giving the one vote a bigger portion of the voting power. Public comment on this item opened and heard from a caller who
wanted to know why Templeton was staying with the IWMA. Director Geoff English spoke on his discussion with the County regarding the IWMA and that staying with the IWMA is the best option for Templeton. Director Logan made a motion to approve the first amendment of the memorandum of agreement and provide communication to the IWMA board that Templeton CSD is interested in a change in the voting configuration so that special districts have proportional representation and that Templeton supports following minimum state mandates only. The motion passed 5-0. The Board then moved to the audit report presentation, showing where the District increased and decreased in funds. The report also included the Measure A and Fire Fund Operating expenses which can be found on page 12 of the Districts financial statements: ca-templetooncsd2. civicplus.com/DocumentCenter/ View/1300/2020-2021-Measure-AParcel-Tax-Repoort Director Logan acknowledged Natalie Klock for her work in getting all the documentation to the auditors throughout this process. Logan then made a motion to approve the report, which passed 5-0. Next was the presentation by District Engineer Tina Mayer on the sewer code enforcement, which has been set as a progressive scale. Director Logan made the motion to approve the progressive scale for enforcement to match the fees with the infractions. The motion passed 5-0. The second part was a motion to adopt the resolution establishing maximum penalties in association with notice of violation and administrative orders and designate a hearing officers assigned to hear appeals. The motion passed 5-0. The General Manager’s report from Jeff Briltz gave the update that the move to cloud-based has not yet taken place due to an issue with the credit card processing. The District offices will be closed Thursday and Friday for the Thanksgiving holiday. The next meeting will be Dec. 7 at 7 p.m., and the agenda will be posted on the District’s website when it becomes available: templetoncsd. org/AgendaCenter. The tentative agenda items are: • AB 361 Compliance Resolution • Steinbeck Litigation Update in closed session • Resolution - Adjustment to Health Insurance Contributions for Employees hired after May 2014 • Resolution - Revisions to the Wage and Salary Schedule • Notice of Completion/Budget Amendment for Board Room Technology Upgrade Project • Measure A Oversight Committee Annual Report • Board Reorganization
loosely refer to as the “hip camp ordinance.” There were many public comments from residents who use the rural camping as a way to sustain their farms and hold on to family property, specifically during drought years when crops and cattle don’t do well. Conversely, there was comment from neighbors who had concerns with the rural camping and concerns over campfires and the threat to the area. The items that were discussed to be in the top priorities were to continue tier-one projects, craft distillery ordinance, urban small wineries, and guest ranch to dude ranch ordinance change, Senate bill 9, Los Osos habitat conservation plan implementation, removal of owner-occupied deed restrictions for ADUs, cannabis programmatic environmental update, revisiting committee advisory council bylaws, rural camping, and coastal vacation ordinance. Ultimately, after much discussion, the motion was made by Supervisor John
Peschong to approve moving all items for approval aside from the programmatic EIR for cannabis and the revisiting of advisory council bylaws. The motion was approved 5-0. Next, Supervisor John Peschong moved approval of the programmatic EIR, which was voted 3-2 with Supervisors Debbie Arnold and Chairperson Compton in opposition. Chairperson Compton made a motion to approve the revisiting of the advisory council bylaws, which was voted 3-2 with Supervisor Gibson and Ortiz-Legg in opposition. The next meeting of the Board of Supervisors will be the special redistricting meeting. The meeting agenda will be posted on the District’s website when it becomes available at slocounty.ca.gov/ Departments/Board-of-Supervisors/ Board-Meetings,-Agendas-and-Minutes. aspx.

CDC Launches Education Campaigns Aimed at Preventing Drug Overdose Deaths Illegal drugs can be mixed or laced with illicitly made fentanyl STAFF REPORT
NATIONAL — To save more lives from drug overdose, the Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently launched four complementary education campaigns intended to reach young adults ages 18—34 years. The campaigns provide information about the prevalence and dangers of fentanyl, the risks and consequences of mixing drugs, the life-saving power of naloxone, and the importance of reducing stigma around drug use to support treatment and recovery. CDC spoke directly with young adults who reported using drugs, as well as peer recovery professionals, to develop the campaigns. Each campaign includes new resources on all four topics to help people make informed decisions, get the help they need, and ultimately reduce the rise in drug overdoses and overdose deaths. “This critical information can help all of us save a life from overdose and support people who use drugs in treatment and recovery,” said Debra Houry, MD, MPH, acting principal deputy director of CDC.
can be even more harmful than when they are used separately. Mixing stimulants—like ecstasy and cocaine—increases the risk of stroke and heart attack, while mixing opioids with other depressants—like benzodiazepines (“benzos”) and/or alcohol—can slow breathing, which may lead to severe brain damage or death. Bottom line, there is no safe way to mix drugs. Even if you have mixed drugs before, your body could react differently every time.
Naloxone Saves Lives Naloxone is a life-saving medicine that can reverse an opioid overdose. Often given as a nasal spray, naloxone can restore normal breathing to a person whose breathing has slowed or stopped due to opioids, including fentanyl, if given in time. Anyone can carry naloxone, give it to someone experiencing an overdose, and potentially save a life. Naloxone is available in all 50 states and Washington, DC, and it is available at many local pharmacies without a prescription in most states. Good Samaritan laws are in place in most states to protect those who are overdosing and anyone assisting them in an emergency from arrest, charges, or a combination of these.
sion for people who use drugs and offering support during their treatment and recovery journey are ways to help reduce stigma. Paths to recovery include treatment with medications for opioid use disorder, as well as behavioral therapies. Treatment is available in many settings—in person, online, through telehealth visits, –treatment can be in individual or group formats. “Addiction is a treatable disease,” said Christopher M. Jones, PharmD, DrPH, MPH, acting director of CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control. “And while recovery is not always a straight path forward, it is possible. Talking with a healthcare provider to develop a treatment plan that works best for that individual and connecting to other services and supports can aid recovery.”
A Critical Step for Prevention
Drug overdoses have claimed nearly 900,000 lives in the United States over the past 20 years. Recent reports show that drug overdose deaths accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic, outpacing overdose death rates from any previous year. Illicitly manufactured fentanyl was the main driver of the near 30 percent increase in overdose deaths. By sharing the campaigns and related People in Treatment resources with young people 18-34 who use and Recovery Need Support drugs, we are taking an important step to One in 14 Americans reports experiencing stop drug overdoses and save lives.

Fentanyl, an extremely powerful synthetic opioid that is up to 100 times stronger than morphine, and other synthetic opioids contribute to most opioid-involved overdose deaths. Illicitly made fentanyl is increasingly found in counterfeit prescription medications, heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine, and other illicit drugs. It is nearly impossible to tell if drugs have been laced with fentanyl without the use of fentanyl test strips because it cannot be seen, smelled, or tasted.

STAFF REPORT
ATASCADERO — El Camino Homeless Organization (ECHO) is proud to announce the return of the North County Turkey Trot on the heels of national Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week. Thanksgiving morning, Thursday, Nov. 25, ECHO will host the fun 5K run/walk at the Atascadero Lake Pavilion Bandstand. Participants are encouraged to wear their best turkey costume while they run/walk twice around the lake. Prizes will be awarded for the best costumes for adults, children, and pets. The suggested donation for participation is $20 per individual and will help provide services to those in need in our community. There is no need to register in advance; donations will be taken at the event. Reprising their role of support are many local sponsors, including the BLoved Foundation, who has generously offered to match a large portion of individual donations. “We are thrilled that once again BLoved has chosen to support ECHO and the North County Turkey Trot,” says Wendy Lewis, President/CEO of ECHO, “we hope the match will encourage the wonderful people of San Luis Obispo County to join together as friends and family and come out to enjoy a fun run/walk on Thanksgiving morning and support ECHO.” National Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week (Nov. 13-21) is designed to educate the public, draw attention to the problem of poverty, and build up the base of volunteers and supporters for anti-poverty agencies. Participating local groups spend this week generating publicity about hunger and homelessness and holding education, service, fundraising, and advocacy events to engage
their local community. ECHO’s North County Turkey Trot began in 2019 with the same goal in mind, to involve the community in addressing the issue of hunger and homelessness in San Luis Obispo County. Bringing attention to the plight of the hungry and homeless in our community can foster greater understanding and solidarity and inspire others to take action. “Promoting the North County Turkey Trot is our way of bringing awareness to the issue of hunger and homelessness during the national week of awareness Nov. 13 to 21,” says Lewis, “We are thankful for such a supportive community with the recent growth of ECHO’s facilities and services and are proud to host an event that brings the community together in a stand of support to promote ending hunger and homelessness.”

LYNN MARIE LANE 1952 - 2021
L
ynn Marie Lane passed away on April 22, 2021, after a short illness. Born on June 28, 1952, in Stockton, Ca, she is the 2nd daughter of
Delbert and Marjorie Jones. She spent all of her growing up years there, enjoying her young life. After leaving Stockton, Lynn spent time in Encinitas, Modesto, and the Merced area, before settling down in Atascadero, CA. Lynn was an appreciator of art, music, food, animals, and humanity. She always put her wholehearted effort and love into these endeavors, which certainly made the world a better place. Lynn could also be quite adventurous, spending time water skiing, snow skiing, windsurfing,
and always taking “A short hike” which, was never short. But as much as Lynn enjoyed taking part in all these activities, the most important thing to her was the people she did these things with. As a radiological technician, Lynn touched so many people with her easy-going disposition, soft touch, and empathy. Scared people, people that might die. But Lynn always made them feel better, even if the only time she spent with them was for a short exam. Sometimes she met these people over and over through-
out their treatment for serious illnesses. Many came back after their recovery to thank her. Some didn’t survive, but Lynn always remembered their names, their families, and their story. The most distinguishing mark of Lynn, whether at work or play, was her laugh. You could hear it from far away, and you always knew that it was her. Everyone that knew Lynn will miss this special person, and that laugh, for the rest of their lives. Lynn is survived by her siblings June Gentry, Janet Wolhart, Gail Eastburn, Amy
Ming, her stepdaughter Nicole Vasquez and many nephews and nieces. Special memories, stories, or condolences are welcomed and can be shared at reisfamilymortuary.net on the Lynn Lane tribute page. If you would like to make a donation in her name, you can find information about two of Lynn’s favorite philanthropic organizations at Feline Network of the Central Coast: felinenetwork. org/donate/, or Pacific Wildlife Care: pacificwildlifecare.org/ special-giving/

CONVICTION
Judge Sentences Johnny Jesse Roman to Serve 25 years Roman’s conviction was for violent crimes committed during a home invasion robbery in rural San Luis Obispo STAFF REPORT
SAN LUIS OBISPO — San Luis Obispo District Attorney Dan Dow announced on Tuesday, Nov. 16, that Johnny Jesse Roman (39) was sentenced to 25 years to life for his conviction for violent crimes committed during a home invasion robbery in rural San Luis Obispo in February 2021. The defendant’s convictions and sentence resulted from a Feb. 13 incident where Roman forced entry into an elderly victim’s residence, tied the victim up, and stole
thousands of dollars in cash from within the residence and a vehicle parked outside. After Roman fled the scene, the victim remained restrained in her residence for several hours until she was found by a family member. Roman then fled California and was arrested in Virginia in March 2021, after which he was extradited and returned to San Luis Obispo County. On Oct. 19, Johnny Jesse Roman Jr. (DOB Jun. 27, 1982) pleaded no contest to all charges against him, including one count of Residential Burglary, one count of First-Degree Residential Robbery, and one count of Grand Theft Automobile. Roman’s crimes were committed against a 75-year-old woman residing in a rural portion of San Luis
Obispo within the jurisdiction of the San Luis Obispo County Sheriff. Roman also admitted that he was previously convicted of two violent felonies under California’s Three Strikes Law. These prior convictions were: Residential Burglary in 2005 and Robbery in 2006. His plea to the current crimes and his admission of the prior “strike” convictions subjected him to a maximum sentence of 41 years to life in prison. On Tuesday, the assigned prosecutor and the Probation Department, in its sentencing report, advocated for the Judge to impose the maximum sentence because of the violence perpetrated against the elderly woman and the similarity of Roman’s prior violent offense convictions. There was no plea agreement
between the defendant and the District Attorney’s Office. Instead, the defendant pleaded no contest to all charges in hopes of receiving leniency from Judge Jesse J. Marino. Judge Marino exercised his discretion to provide a lesser sentence by striking the additional 16 years in prison that was allowed under California law for these convictions. “Violent crimes committed by career criminals against vulnerable victims deserve especially strong sentences,” said District Attorney Dan Dow. “Our office takes seriously the obligation to protect our community through aggressive and fair prosecution of crime while protecting the rights of crime victims. We will continue to advocate for strong sentences in cases like this in order to prevent future

News from the City! Upcoming Holiday Event Season Activities RACHELLE RICKARD
I
Atascadero City Manager
t’s really hard to believe, but we’re already seeing lots of holiday decorations and lights going up, and not only in the retail stores – I’ve seen a few homes in town with beautiful displays that show our community is getting into the spirit too! Thanksgiving is already upon us, and then the busy annual holiday season will really be in full swing. At this time of year, there is always so much to do, but we all should also take a little time out from all of the planning, preparation, cooking, and other necessary responsibilities for some fun and a little bit of magic as well! Be sure to mark your calendars now for all of the great, family-friendly events that are coming right around the corner, specially designed to generate many wonderful memories. Ahead of this year’s Thanksgiving holiday, be sure to visit the new Atascadero Fall Festival, which will be a free-admission, three-day, fun-filled
event, located at Sunken Gardens, Nov. 19 through the 21st. There’s going to be plenty of great music with over 20 live bands playing on two stages; lots of carnival rides and games, Street Fair vendors, food trucks, and local craft beers available at multiple locations throughout the event, and everyone will want to ride the Ferris wheel that will be located right in front of Historic City Hall! This new event is shaping up to be something really spectacular! Please be aware that there will be street closures around the Sunken Gardens downtown area beginning at 7 a.m. on Thursday the 18th through late Sunday the 21st to allow for event preparation, setup, the three-day event itself, and cleanup. You won’t want to miss out on our 2nd Annual Holiday Trail of Lights Tour Map to know exactly where to take an evening drive or neighborhood stroll to see all of the wonderfully decorated local homes, guaranteed to get everyone in the holiday spirit! Information about registering your own address to participate or to obtain the Trail of Lights map can be
found on visitatascadero.com/ trailoflights. Our annual Light Up the Downtown Holiday Lighting celebration will be held on Friday, Dec. 3, from 5:30 to 8 p.m. at City Hall, Sunken Gardens, and throughout downtown Atascadero. Beginning at 5:30 p.m., you can sip and shop with the Atascadero Chamber of Commerce’s ever-popular Art, Wine & Brew Tour (visit atascaderochamber. org for ticket information); then at 6 p.m. everyone will gather in the Sunken Gardens area in front of Historic City Hall as we count-down to the beautiful holiday lighting of City Hall. Santa and Mrs. Claus will then arrive via our antique Model-A fire truck, and children will be able to visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus at the North Pole entrance, located at the Lewis Avenue side of City Hall, facing Atascadero Middle School. There will be lots of great holiday music, free hot chocolate, Model-A fire-truck rides, and complimentary hayrides by Harris State Lines! The extremely popular Winter
Wonderland event will be held on Friday, Dec. 10, from 5 to 9 p.m., with Sunken Gardens and the entire downtown being transformed into a magical, snowy paradise! We’ll have over 65 tons of snow for the large snow pile play areas, and a massive snow-slide will be built by the Atascadero Kiwanis. Many downtown merchants will be open, along with numerous craft and food vendors. Joe’s Little Train will be in operation by the Elks Club, and it’s rumored that Santa and Mrs. Claus may stop by Winter Wonderland too, and Santa may even take a ride down the snow-slide! Be sure to bring the whole family for some Holiday Magic at the Charles Paddock Zoo, which will be held on Saturday, Dec. 18, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Our wonderful Zookeepers will be transformed into Santa’s Elves that day so that they can assist our animal residents with opening their very special holiday treats and gifts! Then, just as the holidays and events of the season have wound down, we’re very excited to bring you the 6th Annual
Tamale Festival, coming on Saturday, Jan. 15, 2022! The festival will include over 30 vendors with plenty of tasty and tempting tamales, along with lots of terrific entertainment including MC Francisco Ramirez, Medina Light Show Designs, a wide variety of fun and exciting music including Mariachi bands, the Folkloric Dancers, and the Famous Dancing Horses. This wonderful event will be a very exciting occasion and is free to attend and to enjoy the entertainment, but don’t forget to bring your wallet to purchase plenty of delicious tamales, other delicious food, and great merchandise! Please note that vendors and volunteers are still needed for both Winter Wonderland and Tamale Festival! For all of our upcoming event information, go to visitatascadero.com or email info@visitatascadero.com. I hope that everyone is able to take some time away from their year-end responsibilities to enjoy at least a few of these great events and has a truly wonderful holiday season.
dent study materials (ahem, videos and games) that will hold kids’ attention while teaching them money management. Keep reading to get to the head of the class. Being in charge of the budget Are your children constantly asking you for money? One Florida father found a way to nip that in the bud: He had his teen and preteen sign a contract stating what expenses he would pay for, then gave them a set amount of money to spend each month for clothing, cellphone bill, and extras. “My son’s hard lesson came when his friend pushed him into a pool along with his cellphone. … He learned why it’s important to build a reserve for unexpected expenses,” the father said. Giving your kids a paycheck allows them the chance to make financial decisions – and experience the consequences firsthand. The economics of higher ed We’ve all asked a kid, “What do you want to be when you grow up?” Instead, ask what their interests are and help them explore how they might be
applied in a future career. This teaches them adaptability, something of value in a changing economic landscape. As they get closer to making a decision about whether to attend college or trade school, help them think through the costs and benefits. Junior Achievement’s Access Your Future app can help them crunch the numbers. And if you have a child already attending college, know that timing is everything. Yale researchers have found that graduating from college in a bad economy has a lasting negative impact on wages – and many students are considering gap years and grad school because of this. The roots of retirement Raise your hand if you want to raise a child who will hit the ground running when it comes to saving for retirement. Personal finance experts say we should let our children know that retirement is the biggest expense they’ll ever save for, and it’s important to start early. To help them understand the value of compounding, help them open a savings account (or guardian-type
brokerage account) where they can experience the power of this phenomenon for themselves. Extra credit knowledge When you’re young and don’t have much money, it’s easy to rely too much on credit and jeopardize your financial future. Help your child understand the importance of a good credit score, and explain how you keep yours up. Share stories about how you financed your first car or house, and explain in concrete terms how the interest rate affected the overall purchase price. Finally, consider adding your teen as an authorized user on your credit card and teaching them how to read a statement and pay the balance in full each month. In giving your child the gift of financial literacy, you’re helping set them up for a brighter future. Through a purposeful approach, we can all do our part to raise the next generation of resourceful citizens. Homeschool resources For teens: • Search ngpf.org/arcade for
web-based games like “Money Magic,” “Payback,” “Stax” and “Credit Clash” For younger kids: • Schoolhouse Rock! vintage videos like “Budget” and “Dollars and Sense” • Cha-chingusa.org offers Money Smart Kids videos like “Do it Passionately” and “Saving for Success” Next steps • Have family or friends share stories of how they thrived during a recession or found creative ways to stretch a budget. • Consider helping your child get started with investing; keeping in mind their investments will change calculations for college aid. • Introduce your family members – even the younger ones – to your advisor, who can act as a teacher’s aide for financial literacy.

A THIRD OPTION FOR PASO SCHOOL DISTRICT
Dear Editor, To avoid potential Brown Act conflicts, I am sharing my thoughts as a private citizen from the perspective of a former Dual Immersion (DI) parent at both Georgia Brown Elementary and Flamson Middle School and as someone who finally sees a clear path to building the long overdue Aquatic Complex including a way to pay for its maintenance. My thoughts do not necessarily reflect that of the school board. Paso Robles Joint Unified School District (PRJUSD) Superintendent Curt Dubost and Assistant Superintendent Business Services Brad Pawlowski hosted a Community Meeting on November 10 to discuss School Attendance Boundaries and Possible School Closure. I applaud the superintendents for acknowledging the status of the District’s General Fund and the potentially overdrawn status of the Measure M funds. Mr. Pawlowski shared that the General Fund, with declining enrollment and a precipitous decline in ADA/Average Daily Attendance, PRJUSD

could return to deficit spending if drastic cuts such as closing a campus are not made. There is about $30 million left to fund remaining Measure M projects, including Georgia Brown and the Aquatic Complex. If the projected $11 million combined cost overruns at the Temporary School Site, Marie Bauer and Glen Speck, plus an additional $6 million to build Speck’s Multi-Purpose Room are any indication; the district will not have enough M16 money left to rebuild Georgia Brown, let alone any other projects. In hindsight, the original $13.5 million budget was never going to be enough to modernize Georgia Brown. Next year, the projected cost will be closer to $30 million. The superintendents introduced two options to mitigate the shortfall. Option 1: Close Georgia Brown moving the Dual Immersion program to Winfred Pifer School. There are currently 431 students at Pifer. The 667 students currently at Georgia Brown could stay on the west side by enrolling at Glen Speck until Speck reaches its capacity of 625 students. There are currently
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
434 students enrolled at Glen Speck. While Option 1 achieves the objective to close a school site, it deprives some of the district’s neediest students of a neighborhood school that best meets their critical needs without having to travel 4.7 miles across town. Option 2: proposes Georgia Brown trade locations with Glen Speck. Glen Speck would move from its temporary site to Georgia Brown. Glen Speck students and teachers would be forced to remain at the temporary site for perhaps another three years while Georgia Brown is renovated at an allegedly reduced estimate of $12.9 million, saving $600,000. This cost reduction doesn’t seem realistic. This bait and switch is morally unconscionable. Glen Speck students, parents, and staff have put up with exile and delays far too long. They deserve to return home as soon as possible. To make matters worse, Option 2 fails to close a school site, so there isn’t any savings. However, there is a third option. Consolidate the two middle schools at Lewis, then let Georgia Brown takes over the then-vacant Flamson Middle school to become a K-8 Dual Immersion school. By reduc-

ing both short and long-term expenditures, this third option is both reasonable, affordable and achieves several goals: • Closes a school site saving $750,000 per year or more • Keeps two neighborhood elementary schools open on the west side • Allows Dual Immersion capacity to expand by half, adding 6th, 7th and 8th-grade classrooms—a true K-8 Dual Immersion magnet school allowing 8th graders superior matriculation to PRHS’s Dual Immersion instruction. • Allows for a second magnet school, The Arts Academy at Bauer Speck, Restores the integrity of the Measure M budget allowing the Aquatic Complex to be built now in its original, two pool design. • Pool maintenance funded with some the savings that consolidation would generate. What needs to happen: 1. The consolidation of our middle schools 2. Allow 5th Graders (Class of 2029) to stay one extra year at their respective elementary sites, becoming 6th Graders at their current sites in 2022-23.
There is capacity to do this. 3. Both Flamson and Lewis Middle Schools become 7-8 Middle schools while the district uses $3.5 million of Georgia Brown’s $13.5m Measure M Funds to build a new classroom wing at Lewis to house all 7 and 8 graders at one central location. 4. Convert the new ten classroom building at Flamson to a pre-K and Kindergarten wing using $1 million of the $13.5m Georgia Brown’s Measure M Funds 5. Move 7&8 grades from Flamson to Lewis in 2023 6. Move Georgia Brown a ¼ mile to the now vacant Flamson campus in 2023 (saving $750,000 per year) 7. Use the remaining $9m of Georgia Brown’s Measure M funds to augment the remaining $3.6m for the Aquatic Complex. This leaves $12.6m to immediately begin construction on the Aquatic Complex. 8. Sell the now vacant GB as surplus property after first offering it as surplus property, possibly to a potentially new charter school or, better still, build affordable housing
for our struggling teachers offering homes with belowmarket-rate rents. No, Option 3 does not please everyone; I do not believe such a plan exists. In the long run, Option 3, subject to discussion and revision, presents the least disruption while restoring a sense of hope and promise that PRJUSD can find its way back to being a destination district for students, teachers, classified staff parents, and our community. When a decision is made by the school board next year, let us hope that staff will decide to present Option 3. Meanwhile, if preserving neighborhood schools is critical to student success, if enhancing Dual Immersion matters to you, if restoring an Arts Academy is important to you if attracting, paying, and retaining the best teachers is vital, and if you have waited too long for PRJUSD to fulfill its promise of an Aquatic Complex, contact Superintendent Dubost and Assistant Superintendent Business Services Pawlowski. Ask them to present Option 3 to the public. Chris Bausch Paso Robles

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 Website www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 20956. 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 Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (916) 939-0772 or visit this internet website www.nationwideposting. com using the file number assigned to this case 20956 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid by remitting the funds and affidavit described in Section 2924(c) of the Civil Code so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

Ingredients: • 3½ cups all-purpose flour • 1½ cups firmly packed brown sugar • 2 tsp baking powdered • ½ tsp salt • 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice • ½ can canned, mashed pumpkin • 2 large eggs, lightly beaten • 1 tbsp vanilla extract • 2 tbsp butter • 1¼ cups macadamia nuts, coarsely chopped Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt, and pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl; stir well. Combine pumpkin, eggs, and vanilla, stirring well with a wire whisk. Slowly add pumpkin mixture to flour mixture, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened. (Mixture will be very
crumbly; it will gradually become moist after stirring.) Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add macadamia nuts. Cook, stirring constantly until nuts are browned. Remove from heat and cool completely. Gently stir cooled nuts into dough. Place dough on a lightly floured surface and divide it into 4 portions. Lightly flour hands and shape each portion into a 1x15-inch log. Place logs 3 inches apart on lightly greased cookie sheets. Bake for 23 minutes; cool logs 15 minutes. Reduce temperature to 300 degrees. Cut each log diagonally into 1/2-inch slices with a serrated knife. Place slices on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake for 15 minutes. Cool completely on wire racks. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and friends, and remember this anonymous quote, “Water separates the people of the world; wine unites them.” Cheers!

St Louis for Montana, he tried to find work on a cattle ranch but finding none, he signed on with a sheep outfit and only lasted two weeks.

I’ve found this to be men’s traditional hatred for the patently false. As long as I didn’t wooly things. They used to say let the herd, or the flock, stay in that “everything in front of a one place too long, I found that sheep is eaten and everything my very best grazing was on the behind is killed.” They also said land where I’d previously run the that “there’s nothing dumber than two together. I became a believer sheep except the man that raised that “whatever the hoof of sheep them.” touches turns to gold.” That’s why I must be pretty stupid because many old ranchers called their I raised them for a long time and sheep “Mortgage Lifters,” and enjoyed it. I admit there were many years Ranchers believed that if their we wouldn’t have shown a profit cows were exposed to sheep for without the sheep. long periods, they noticed the We know ranchers hated intellect of their cows and their sheepherders but do cows hate cowboys would be decreased. sheep? There was only one time Maybe that’s why Charles Russell that I saw even the faintest hostilhated them so. When Charlie left ity between sheep and cattle. I
used to shear a lot of sheep in my younger years, mostly small commercial and purebred flocks. One time I was called to shear a bunch of “hogs.” Years ago, the term “hog” was used to describe a sheep older than a lamb that had never been shorn. I hated shearing hogs because the fleece was hard, I nicked them more, and it really dulled blades in a hurry. This day I was shearing a set of replacement ewes, and after I sheared them, they went from being “hogs” back to sheep. This is where the saying originated, “going the whole hog.” It had nothing to do with swine. After I sheared the band that day, they were turned back into a field with a few cows in it. I don’t know if it was the shock of the freshly shorn lambs or the smell of KRS that I applied to any cuts, but the cows came closer to smell and look them over and then ran to the furthest corner of the field. But for years, I ran the two together, and in all that time, I never saw an ounce of aggression between the two species. I compliment sheep in this way, knowing I’ll be shunned by cattlemen, but I hope the hatred isn’t
as bad as when the west was first opened up to grazing. Back then, if cattle ranchers found sheep on the public land that the cattlemen grazed for free, they would kill all the sheep and hang the shepherd. As a cattleman/sheepherder, I have suffered some discrimination, but it never reached the point where I had to keep an armed guard with the sheep or feared for my life. Mostly I just wasn’t invited to brandings or awarded county cattleman of the year, and I had to suffer some sexist jokes. I also had to import ropers to get my calves worked, and even then, I had to hide the sheep and any paraphernalia I used to raise them. There was a scare one year when an imported roper thought he saw some sheep manure, but I told him the pellets were from the giant jackrabbits that roamed the area. He fell for it hook line and sinker. I figured his mental capacity must have been reduced from possibly hanging around sheep in the past.

n our last meditation, we learned about God’s call given to Moses to become the human deliverer of the nation of Israel from Egyptian slavery. We saw that Moses was totally unwilling to do what God asked him to do. It seems he had developed an inferiority complex caused by his past failures. God spoke personally to Moses on Mt. Sinai thru a burning bush when he was eighty years old. He had been living a quiet and peaceful life as a shepherd for forty years when God called him. Moses simply refused to accept the responsibility of dealing with the Pharaoh of Egypt even though he knew everything about Egyptian culture and the problems of Israel’s slavery. He attempted to get out of God’s call by making five excuses to God (Exodus 3:11-4:17). All of
these excuses were bad reasons for not yielding to God’s will. Moses’ first excuse was that he was a NOBODY and totally inadequate to do what God was calling him to do (Exodus 3:11-12). God told Moses He would certainly be with him and enable him to do all that He wanted done. Moses’ second excuse was that he did not have an answer concerning whose authority he had to be Israel’s deliverer (Exodus 3:13-22). This was really quite foolish. God told Moses that He was Jehovah, the Self-Existent Creator, who was sending him to Egypt. The Infinite God of the universe would give him the authority to act in His Great Name: “I AM WHO I AM.” Moses was to tell the Israelites in Egypt that God was going to deliver them from slavery and take them to the promised land that He had given to their forefather Abraham. God would deliver Israel thru the display of supernatural miracles. Moses was still not submissive and gave God his third excuse. Moses’ third excuse to God
(Exodus 4:1-9). He raised the possibility that none of the leaders in Israel would believe that God had sent him. God’s response was that He gave Moses the ability to manifest three supernatural miracles, and this would prove that God had sent him. Moses was still belligerent and gave God another excuse. Moses’ fourth excuse (Exodus 4:10-12). Moses said that he was not an eloquent speaker and had problems speaking. It is interesting to note that Acts 7:22 states that when Moses was in Egypt before his exile, he was “mighty in words.” Moses had either lost his ability to speak or was just making another excuse. God answered Moses and told him that He would enable him to speak and teach him what to say. Moses’ fifth and final excuse. Moses simply told God that he was unqualified for the task and that He should get a better-qualified person to do it (Exodus 4:13-17). At this point, the Bible states that God got angry with Moses. God’s answer was that He would
allow his older brother, Aaron, to assist him but that Moses would still be God’s choice to be Israel’s deliverer from slavery. Moses finally submitted to obey God (Exodus 4:18-2). Moses is a great example of how God can initially take an unwilling and belligerent man and transform him into a very powerful and effective servant. Moses developed a very intimate and personal relationship with God. Lessons to be Learned 1. God gets upset and angry with people who make excuses for not doing His will. 2. Disobedience to God can result in the loss of many of His blessings. 3. God is Jehovah, the Self-existent, eternal, infinite Creator who can enable His servants to accomplish whatever He wills and asks them to do. NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD!

Mixed Reflections on a Good Year Amid Climate Change Concerns
H
Local vintners harvest reports acknowledge climate change, labor shortages, and a vintage that many describe as “challenging.” Contributed photos
arvest is in full swing as I approach my deadline. Euphoria, hope, and joy bloom in the fall air. Yet across the boards, as vintners extoll a certainto-be fine-drinking vintage, an edge creeps into their harvest reports as they acknowledge climate change, labor shortages, and a vintage that many describe as “challenging.” On the joy side, however, the level of jubilation can be measured in the first crop experienced by Anita and Varinder Sahi, owners of Copia Vineyards in the Willow Creek District. “It’s truly like going through pregnancy,” said Anita with amusement. “And then having your first fruit is like a first child — a culmination of hope and passion and new beginnings. It’s exciting to see what the fruits of the labor will be — literally.” By the end of September, a ton of grenache and half a ton of syrah had been picked. “The fruit came out almost perfect,” enthused Varinder. Copia’s 20-acre vineyard was planted in 2019 mainly to Rhône varieties and some Cabernet Sauvignon. “The vineyard is designed to be a winemaker’s dream,” Varinder commented on the 24 micro blocks, densely planted to different clones and drought-resistant rootstocks, the diversity being a factor in blending. “Paso is known for blends — the more lots you have, the more blends you can experiment with.” Yet this type of hands-on farming is labor-intensive, and that has been among the challenges for the Sahis. As for the drought, the five moisture sensors and the weather station keep vigil in the vineyards. “One of the goals of moisture sensors is to be sustainable and not overwater,” Anita noted. Copia’s first harvest will yield no more than 14 tons, with the balance of fruit sourced from Santa Barbara County to make up the production of 2,000 cases. “The goal is to be 100 percent estate,” Varinder said. Daniel Daou, co-proprietor of Daou Family Estates, admitted this has “definitely been a challenging harvest,” The winemaker of Daou wines took time out from his harvest to meet with me at Daou Mountain hospitality center. He cited several obstacles presented by Harvest 2021, including a cold wave that cast some shatter and affected the berry size. “I’m noticing the smallest size berries I’ve ever seen and tannin levels elevated,” Daou noted. But the most challenging aspect of this year’s harvest is the high phenolics. “I measure phenolics; a lot of people don’t,” said Daou. “It’s impossible to taste wine while being fermented and decide if the wine is balanced or not.” To tame the tannin levels, Daou, over the years, has learned to trust his palate. “I use my palate’s profile to track phenolics during fermentation to balance out the wine while it is being created. It’s different from the traditional blending after the wine is done.” Challenges notwithstanding, Daou was able to tame the tannins, and after doing some barrel tasting, he commented in an email update: “Wow, I’m ready to say that these will be outstanding wines.” For Zachary Raines, the winemaker at Dubost Winery, the drought has affected the harvest in many ways. “I definitely see high levels of phenolics coinciding with the drought.” Thus, Raines keeps a constant check on managing tannins. “I’m checking the Brix level two to three times a day; it’s a one-man show.” The growing season has been good and the weather cooperative, but the drought has affected dry-farmed vineyards like Dubost. “With two light-years in a row, the crop levels have been low,” noted Raines, citing a 30 to 50 percent reduction in crops. Yet, with infrastructure in place, Raines hasn’t had to irrigate since 2016. “I’ve
adjusted my farming practices to coincide with a non-irrigated vineyard.” There are benefits and drawbacks, but Raines has fine-tuned his approach. “The fruit hangs less long and gets ripe quicker. In these years, we make sure our crop levels are low, so the vine uses less energy.” While extended drought is not sustainable, Raines preferred to conclude on a positive note. “There’s no cause for alarm,” he insisted. “We are dealing with Mother Nature, cruising along, and we adapt.” In the bigger scheme of things, adapting could mean experimenting with different varieties. “We are sourcing touriga nacional now and see it as future variety,” Raines remarked about the increasingly popular Portuguese variety. There could also be a possibility of a cross-hybrid with the grape, speculated Raines. “Let’s see where the future takes us.” Adapting is what Ambyth, a biodynamic estate in Templeton, is also experiencing in 2021. Although the vines were healthy, the .8 inches of rain resulted in poor yields, explained winemaker Gelert Hart in an email exchange. “Poor yields as in less than 1/2 ton per acre all varieties.” “But, of course, the quality of the fruit is intense and amazing. It will be a good year for wine,” said Hart. “The pH is not super low on most varieties which is good for us with how mineral and acidic our soil is.” For Steve Viera, farming is continually changing and evolving. “Now it’s accelerated with the cost of farming and availability of labor,” said the vineyard manager at Derby Wine Estate. However, the labor shortage hasn’t affected Derby’s eastside and westside vineyards yet but could be an issue at the end of harvest in October. “So far, it’s been an excellent year,” Viera commented, with 30 percent of harvest underway. He is pleased with the harvest of younger vines; however, older vines not yet harvested could be impacted by these issues. It’s been a busy harvest for Jason Yeager, who launched Scotlynn Vineyards management company this year. “So far, overall, it’s on the light side as far as tonnage goes,” said Yeager, who is handling some 20 clients, farming over 270 acres and dedicated exclusively to night harvesting. The wind during bloom season resulted in small berries, which he noted should be of good quality. “Wines this vintage could be more age-worthy because of higher acids.” At Booker Vineyard, winemaker Pete Turrone called 2021 a strange year. “We’ve had a drought, springtime was cool and windy, and there were fewer heat spikes,” said Turrone when I met him at Booker’s uber-contemporary winery. But overall, quality has been great, especially syrah. “We like to make a big, bold syrah, so high levels of tannins and color will make a luxurious syrah.” “This year, we are being water-wise and practicing deficit irrigation with the help of moisture probes,” Turrone observed about the 65-acre Rhône-focused vineyard, which received its organic certification this year. Damian Grindley has consciously moved away from early picking; he said when I met him mid-September at his Brecon Estate. “The heat thing is a non-issue if you have late varieties and you’re far west,” he said of his Adelaida District vineyard, where he will pick syrah and mourvedre in late October. “I’m going for a long hang time and avoiding heat and acidity.” Laura Kramer echoed the sentiment. “The longer it hangs, the better it’s going to be,” said the winemaker of Kramer Estate Wine in a phone conversation. As she spoke, she was standing in her living room overlooking her five-acre hilltop vineyard in San Miguel, awaiting harvest. For her, the joys and the challenges of 2021 lay ahead.

here. And we are so pleased to be able to reflect and remember what the Veterans have done because they’ve done it for each of us,” he continued. There wasn’t a dry eye on the lawn as the Armed Forces Medley was played over the loudspeakers, and Veterans from each branch of the military were asked to stand. Young and old, men and women, all stood as their branch’s themes played. Lieutenant General Scott C. Black was the next to speak, reminding us all of the importance of remembering our Veterans. “Indeed, there were times in our not too distant past where service and the uniform of our country were not recognized and applauded. We should never forget those times,” he said. Lieutenant General Black then shared a poem with the crowd. “I carry a short poem in my gear, and I always have. To remind me, personally, of the oath of loyalty that we owe to our Veterans. And I’d like to share that poem with you. The poet’s name has long been lost to the ages, but the words are poignant and worth repeating here today. It goes this way: God and the soldier, We adore In time of trouble, But not before; When trouble is over, & wrongs are righted, God is forgotten – & the soldier slighted.
Here today, that is certainly not the case.” A group of Veterans was also

year, and the turnout was the largest in The Boutique’s history. “Due to COVID, we moved everything outside, and it’s been a success ever since. Most likely, we will keep it outside as it has given us the opportunity to allow for more space, vendors, more of a turnout, and everyone [is] able to shop amongst the beautiful Atascadero Lake Park,” said Deputy City Manager Terrie Banish. Boasting over 50 vendors, most of which provide locally made goodies, the event was well attended. From 10 a.m. until 3 p.m., people shopped to their heart’s content, picking up early holidays gifts for their loved ones. And earlier in the month, The
FESTIVAL CONTINUED FROM A1
While most wines offered were recent vintages, there were a few with at least ten years of age on them. Powell poured the 2010 cabernet sauvignon, his very first vintage, while Jenni Abascal, co-owner of Vines on the Marycrest, offered her 2009 vintages of syrah and zinfandel, two wines that were poured at the very first Garagiste festival in 2011. What made some of the wines rare was their limited production, such as Kaleidos Winery’s Praying Mantis (a mere 23 cases produced) and Dusty Nabor’s 2018 grenache from his personal reserve collection. Anita Sahi, on the other hand, quipped, “We are not rare or reserve—but we are pouring two unreleased wines.” The co-founder of Copia Vineyards offered 2019 The Pursuit, syrahs from two different vineyards in Santa Barbara County. Saturday morning activities began at the Paso Robles Event Center with a seminar hosted by fest co-founder Stewart McLennan, who welcomed guest speaker Jason Haas, managing director of Tablas Creek Vineyards. “Diversity of Paso is what draws
awarded with Quilts of Valor from our local chapter, who have made over 362 quilts for service members and Veterans alike in the area. San Luis Obispo’s County Supervisor, Debbie Arnold, presented Distinguished Veteran Awards to Bonnie Meyer and Leroy “Max” Bowery. Both of which served our country overseas during WWII. Meyer worked her way to deployment and landed in Naples in 1945, and Bowery happened to rescue [then future President] George H. Bush on the seas. A wreath presentation by VFW Auxilary #2814, Taps played by Darin Gong, and The Returning of Colors wrapped up the ceremony. “It [The Veterans Day Ceremony] is always so well attended; hundreds, if not well over a thousand people [showed up] here. Our residents really enjoy this. It’s a time to come together and celebrate our veterans and honor them, and it’s just a beautiful time,” Atascadero’s Mayor, Heather Moreno, said. There were also plenty of booths for people to explore after the ceremony was over, as well as a free barbecue lunch for all participating Veterans provided by the Atascadero Kiwanis. For a small price, other attendees could eat as well. The Faces of Freedom Veterans Memorial is open all year round and is a beautiful place to see local soldiers honored with bricks, plaques, and statues. Each year, the Paso Robles District Cemetary creates the Avenue of Flags
throughout the grounds to pay tribute to our Veterans. Additionally, the flags are accompanied by a ceremony is conducted at 11:00 a.m. sharp, with notable speakers, bands, and a flyover by the Warbirds Museum. However, due to COVID, the Veterans Day ceremonies have been converted to drive-thru events. According to Tom Flynn, the cemetery’s director, it takes approximately two months to put together their traditional ceremony, and two months ago, a ceremony like theirs would not be possible due to COVID restrictions. However, Flynn says, “Even with COVID, we have managed to get the flag crew together, and we’ve always done our flag set up so at least people can come out [and pay their respects].” According to Flynn, the Paso Robles District Cemetery is home to 1,200 VA (Veteran Affairs) issued headstones. But that number is increased to over 2,000 when counting privately issued veteran headstones. He says there are even some veterans from the Spanish American War buried in the Pioneer section of the cemetery. Volunteers from the VFW, Boy Scouts, Moose Lions Club, and others help put flags on every veteran’s grave in the cemetery. Despite a change in plans, Flynn says there was a huge turnout of visitors paying their respects to our veterans, and he hopes next year, Paso Robles District Cemetery will be able to welcome back their traditional Veteran’s Day ceremonies.
City of Atascadero, along with the Atascadero student body, hosted a Fall Carnival on Thurs., Nov. 4, in “The Plaza.” The event was a carnival-themed fundraiser in support of the local student body and showed off the new outdoor area located between Highway 101 and El Camino Real. Music was performed by the Atascadero High School Show and Advanced Choir, Atascadero Middle School Marching Band, and Atascadero High School Strings Orchestra. Motion Academy of Dance also performed. The festivities didn’t stop there. A smattering of carnival booths, games, snacks, and a petting zoo hosted by the local FFA chapter were also available for attendees. Fun food options were also at the Fall Carnival. The Sandwich Truck
provided offerings from Colony Market and Deli, Paradise Shaved Ice, and Bramble Pie Company. There were also drinks for the adults from Bristol’s Cider House, Lone Madrone Winery, Tent City Brewing, along with coffee from Malibu Brew. “The City worked closely with the School District on an event to showcase the area and all of the wonderful projects and entertainment that they have been working on. Overall, we had about 250 people in attendance, and it was nice to see everyone come together. It also made for a good opportunity for folks to see the area [The Plaza] and how it can be rented for an event or school rally,” said Deputy City Manager Terrie Banish. The turnout made this new Fall Carnival a roaring success.
people here,” said Haas commenting on the seminar’s topic, The Past and Future of Winemaking in Paso, while discussing the growth of Rhône-style wines. “We chose to do Rhône-style varieties when not a single acre was planted here in Paso.” While conducting a tasting of four Tablas Creek wines, Haas reflected on his family history. Tablas Creek, a Franco-American joint-venture, was founded in 1989 by his father, the late Robert Haas, in collaboration with the Perrin family of Château de Beaucastel in France’s southern Rhône region of Châteauneuf-duPape. Although not a garagiste winery, Tablas Creek has made a significant contribution to Paso wineries, big and small. The team revolutionized planting on the Central Coast by importing clones of Rhône style grapes, a total of 19 varieties to date. The winery, which endured a long quarantine process to bring original cuttings from France, eventually decided to make those varieties available to other wineries. “We made them available to people. We didn’t expect [the growth and popularity of Rhône wines in California]. It surprised Dad.”
The Grand Tasting following the seminar was staged indoors in a cavernous hall that had plenty of air ventilation with a few tasting tables and seating outdoors. Following COVID protocols, the tables were spread out at more than six feet apart for greater social distancing. While an indoor mask mandate was signposted, it was challenging for attendees to keep masks on with all the wine tasting going on. Rhône-style blends and cabernet sauvignon dominated the afternoon, yet this is one festival where you can find interesting blends and varietal wines. Making its debut was Steinbeck’s 2019 Blanc de Blanc, a refreshing sparkler of chardonnay with a splash of syrah, and Josh Beckett’s recently launched Thibido Winery’s 2020 Just Because, a carbonic syrah. Among the eclectic blends were Cypher’s 2018 ZinPunk, a knockout bold blend of zinfandel, petite sirah, and tannat; Emercy Wines’ 2019 blend of syrah, graciano, and cabernet sauvignon; and Hayseed & Housdon’s 2019 La Macha, a heady carousel of tempranillo, graciano, mataro, and garnacha. Then there were the all-Spanish indulgences
CITY COUNCIL CONTINUED FROM A1
moved to the next item, which was quickly agreed upon 7 to 0. The item, Resolution #9-2122 is to initiate a transition to a By-Trustee Area Election System area election system commencing with the 2022 Governing Board Election. Chelsea Olson and Ben Clark [the demographer] gave the presentation. Currently, the Atascadero Unified School District Board of Education is elected by an ’at large’ election system, and trustees are elected by voters from the whole district. There are three options for voting, including; where all voters vote for all trustees, where board members live in a trustee area, but are elected at large, and By-Trustee area voting. Where board members live in a trustee area and are elected only by voters in that trustee area. Step one: the board would adopt an intent resolution specifying that they want to adopt By-Trustee area elections, and then it would be on to all the required hearings. A Minimum of two hearings will be with maps [of the trustee areas]. “There’s lots opportunities for the public to participate all throughout this process. Assuming that the resolution is adopted we will do the first pre-map hearing tonight,” said Olson. The resolution went to a vote and appeared to pass 5 to 2, but the sound went out and the final vote has not been confirmed. “This [slide 5] just breaks down the new 2020 census status average that was released. This gives you a snapshot in time of what the population looks like. As I mentioned, we are going to take that 37,356 total population; we’re gonna divide it into seven equal groups, so it gives you over 5,000 per trustee area. And that’s how we’re gonna use that 10 percent variance to move things around and to start this drawing process,” said Ben Clark, the demographer.
from Diablo Paso. There were also not-so-common offerings of whites, such as torrontes from Arianna Wines, vermentino from MEA Wine, and picpoul blanc from Vigo Cellars. Among the reds, there were some interesting tannats from Volatus and MCV Wines; and cabernet francs from Cloak & Dagger and
By-Trustee voting is meant to ensure that Atascadero has better representation all across the school district. “I don’t understand why we’re doing this [By-Trustee voting], to be honest. Because we’re elected at large, and we’re here to serve all, and this to me feels like segregation. I’m really, kind of, uncomfortable with it, to be honest. It just counters what I believe in my heart as a Trustee. I’m here to serve the whole district at large,” said Trustee Corinne Kuhnle. “Our Trustees want to be able to represent all families in our larger district. All students. And advocate for quality education at every single school,” said president Shoemaker. When public forum was open the board was asked to reconsider going forward until they have more input from the public. There will be multiple meetings [on By-Trustee Voting] held in public so the community can share their perspective about the maps. During public comment, community members implored the board not to go through with vaccine mandates--asking the board to be proactive in making choices concerning the mandates. Interm Principle at Atascadero Middle School, Will Wallace said that pep rallies are back! And as of June that Atascadero Middle School is a National School to Watch. Atascadero Middle School has also added a Intervention Teacher into their fall schedule. Superintendent Thomas Butler gave an update on Covid-19 cases. Nine students have tested positive in the last four weeks, out of approximately 4,334 students in the district. The school district also recently received 3,200 brand new Chromebooks at no cost to the district, and 125 WiFi hotspots will be donated to families who are in need of them. All provided by a technology grant. “We’ve had a good thing going with our community.

The festival, which shines a light on small, often undiscovered winemakers, was founded by McLennan and Doug Minnick, individuals from the entertainment business and the minds behind this small-lot movement. Neither of them a winemaker at the time, each has evolved to craft his own wines — McLen-
There have been times where our community has asked us to speak up, and we’ve asked them to speak up. So, I wanted our community to hear that I am either having meetings, or have meetings scheduled with Assemblyman Cunningham’s office, Senator Laird’s office. I’ve reached out to the California Department of Education and the State Superintendent, Tony Thurmond. I’ve been meeting regularly with County Superintendent, Dr. Brescia. I have a phone call in to the California Department of Public Health, but have not heard back. My purpose in those meetings is to talk about the value of education. To talk about the impact that we saw when our schools were closed for approximately 18 months. And about how we can work together, and volunteering myself to be a part of a solution where we can keep schools fully assessable to students in a healthy manner. And keep staff fully employed to do the great work that they’re cut out for,” said Thomas Butler. All 10 points in the Consent Agenda were approved, with slight amendments to articles 11.6 and 11.9. The board voted 7 to 0 on Phase 3 at Atascadero High School. Meaning that the project, which includes the demolition of building B, and building out the quad, will move forward. Assistant Superintendent E.J. Rossi gave the results of the AUSD benchmark assessments. He gave district-wide results as all the results mirrored each other when broken down by grade and school. Students’ ability to read increased by 20 percent and comprehension is up by six percent. We had a 24 percent increase in math as well. And according to Sabors, the students in the district had an increase of 26 percent. All of these percentages are an increase from Spring 2021 to Fall 2021. The next Atascadero Unified School Districts board meeting will be held on Tuesday, Dec. 14 at 7:00 p.m.
