eadhunters Barber Service closes its doors after 58 years of service in Paso Robles.

At one time, there were barbershops around almost every corner in Paso. And for many of us who grew up in Paso, Headhunters have always been there right on Spring Street.

Johnny Gates and A.J. Brown (Brownie) opened Headhunters Barber Service in November of 1963, approximately two weeks before the Kennedy Assassination.

When Headhunters initially opened, it was inside the Paso Robles Hot Springs

Hotel. Not long after opening, the shop moved to its current location at 1220 Spring Street, which turned out to be pretty good timing because the Hot Springs Hotel burned down on Nov. 22, 1963.

Recently, I was able to visit Headhunters. Inside was a living timeline of the barbershop.

Johnny Gates, Cletis Moore, Tim Lyons, and Don Pushea sat around the shop they all owned a portion of at one time.

Seated in the shop was Gates, one of the original owners of Headhunters. Gates got his start working for Henry Frisby at Frisby’s Barbershop on Park Street.

Long-time Paso residents have said they remember a new sign in front of Frisby’s saying “New Flattop Expert Inside.” The latest expert was Gates, fresh out of barber school.

Growing up, Gates began giving his

COVID-19 UPDATE

PASO ROBLES — After 17 years, Berry Hill Bistro closed its Downtown Paso Robles location and reopens in the Paso Market Walk as The Third Degree: An American Grill by Berry Hill.

On Aug. 1, 2020, The Third Degree made its opening debut with the Paso Market Walk. With a new concept and menu, owner Jody Storsteen still brings customers delicious homemade meals they expect from the former Berry Hill restaurant.

“I had a great 17 years downtown, I loved it, and then when this concept came up, I was like ‘hey, let’s try something new.’ Change is good,” said Storsteen.

The Third Degree offers specialty burgers, salads, and sandwiches at a faster pace without sacrificing quality.

When business and life pick up after recovering from the pandemic, Storsteen hopes to add a graband-go bar with homemade and ready-to-eat meals.

Storsteen had already sold her Berry Hill Bistro location and planned on moving onto her next Third Degree venture before the COVID pandemic.

makers, and alt ed programs are sometimes viewed as less enriching and less rigorous but as tonight’s presentation continues you’ll soon see nothing can be further from the truth, and you can’t paint alternative education with a broad brush. Even more so this past year as we have grown to meet the challenges of 2020.

From our youngest home school, TK students, to our oldest adult learners, our dynamic and caring staff help families find success and fulfillment in ways that larger comprehensive programs simply aren’t designed to accommodate. Tonight… most importantly, there are many uplifting pictures, capturing happy memories and our spirit of optimism.

Missed the smiling faces of those kids and families, which really gave me a big lift as I prepared this presentation last week… I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge the entire alternative education teaching and support staff. It’s a true privilege to work so closely with such a thoughtful, skillful, selfless, flexible, hardworking, caring, and dedicated group of professionals that will always go the extra mile for their students, parents, colleagues, and their too numerous to thank and call out individually but I consider myself extremely fortunate to get to work with them every day.

Secondly, I would like to acknowledge the resilient, gracious, and hardworking students and families who have made our staff feel so appreciated… I could not be more proud or more grateful to have journeyed through 2020 with such an amazing group.” Sharon continued by explaining in detail each division of the alternative education program, the students who attend, and the unique opportunities that alt ed is able to offer.

The entire presentation can be viewed on the PRJUSD YouTube page youtube.com/ watch?v=Mymac7aMZlE. After the presentation, the superintendent and board of trustees shared their gratitude and admiration for all the work Sharon and his staff have accomplished and bring to the District.

Moving on to public comment Board President Chris Arend reported that the board had received several written letters from the public addressing two topics, the Ethnics Studies program and the Aquatics Complex, however due to time restraints, they are not able to read all of them out loud. The Board received roughly 25 comments (letters) on the Ethics studies course and approximately 10 comments or more on the Aquatics complex.

A general sentiment of the letters for the ethics studies course in favor, and as for the aquatics, the comments were urging the board to get the pool built.

Executive secretary Kim Holmes explained that all public comments could be read online in the agenda items they speak to agendaonline.net/public/Meeting.aspx?AgencyID=221& M e e t i n g I D = 8 2 6 8 0 & A g e n c y Ty p e ID=1&IsArchived=False.

This program began as a result of the impact of COVID19 on the community and has successfully completed the initial review from the California Department of Education (CDE) Nutrition Services Division. As this program has continued to have success, staff has increased the production of meals provided daily. As a result, the department will need to upgrade the existing production line machine. Staff solicited quotes from three vendors for a machine that would accommodate the growth of this program.

Motion to approve by Trustee Chris Bausch and passed 7-0.

Motion to approve made by Trustee Bausch and after a vote, I.7 passed 6-1 with Trustee Baker voting no and a yes from Trustee Reed with clarification that the board will be able to have further input before it is rolled out.

I.8. agenda item was to request approval for adding an Ethnic Studies Course at PRHS: Multicultural America as an elective for the 2021-2022 school year presented again by Haley.

President Arend stated that the board received multiple written comments that they were unable to read into the record, but they are available for the public under agenda item I.8 agendaonline.net/ public/Meeting.aspx?AgencyID=221& MeetingID=82680&AgencyTyp eID=1&IsArchived=False.

After hearing from over 15 community members, which heavily supported the program’s adoption with one that felt the course would promote division, Haley and current educator Geoffrey Land, who helped create the program’s outline, presented an overview of what the elective course would entail.

The primary purpose of Ethnic Studies, according to the outline, is: Multicultural America is to educate students to be politically, socially, and economically conscious about their personal and cultural connections to local and national history. The course focuses on themes of social justice, empathy, social responsibility, and social change. The course spans from past to present, from politics to social reform, allowing students to identify similar social patterns and universal qualities present in other societies, including their own.

This course focuses on the experiences of African Americans, Asian Americans, Latino Americans, Native Americans, and other marginalized peoples in the United States. This course will actively seek out local speakers (state legislators, council members, community leaders) to provide valuable insight into these issues as they play out in the community.

The course includes an identity section where students will consider concepts related to their own personal, group, and/or national identity.

President Arend opened the floor to the board for discussion after the presentation. Each board member addressed their understanding of the course and asked detailed questions regarding the choice of literature, the syllabus, and an overview of the subjects and weeks each subject would take as the course was taught to the students.

Trustees Baker, Gannon, and Bausch all expressed concern that they would like to see a more “balanced” curriculum.

After over an hour of discussion, Trustee Nathan Williams made a motion to approve the course as presented. “approval of adding an Ethnic Studies Course at PRHS: Multicultural America as an elective for the 2021-2022 school year.”

Discussion continued that again some of the board members would like to see the curriculum add a more balanced course outline that added in additional authors and additional materials to the curriculum. Bausch asked if Williams would amend his motion to add “contingent upon staff bringing back a more balanced course outline.”

After further discussion that moved into the fifth hour of the board meeting (almost 10 p.m.), it was determined Trustee Williams motion to approve the course as presented.

Other board members brought up that they would like to amend the motion to included “approval, contingent upon additional materials offering a balance of the curriculum and literature.”

Haley stated that she needed clarification due to “we typically do not fly the course [if it’s not adopted].” She continued by saying that “if we bring it back in two weeks, we cannot fly it, so we may as well say that we are bringing back the course for approval in two weeks.”

Trustee Williams stated, “then my motion stands… I want this approved tonight… we have contingencies that will drag this on, and I want this to move forward tonight.”

Trustee Williams was unwilling to amend his motion to compromise with the rest of the board even after Trustee Bausch requested that he reconsider.

President Arend called for a vote on the presented motion, Trustees Williams, Arend, and Gearhart voted yes, and Trustees Baker, Gannon, Bausch, and Reed no not as it stands.

Making it a 4-3 vote, the motion did not pass.

Trustee Baker presented a second motion to approve the course contingent upon board approval at the next meeting. To include a more balanced curriculum and revised reading list that addresses the concerns brought forward by the board with the understanding that staff can move forward with offering the class.

Call for a vote; all Trustees were in favor of the new motion with the exception of trustee Gannon with a no. Motion passes 6-1.

The board meeting continued with addressing agenda item I.9. to approve the Revised Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) Federal Addendum presented by Babette Decou. The revised Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) Federal Addendum will be submitted as part of our Federal Program Monitoring (FPM).

The board approved the motion made by Trustee Gannon in a 7-0 vote.

President Arend presented an adoption of I.10. No. 21-20 Condemning Racism in PRJUSD, which he stated that he met with Trustee Gearhart and community members, some that even called in this evening.

The attached resolution has been developed cooperatively by a subcommittee of the Board in consultation with community members.

Resolution 21-20 was read in full by President Arend.

Trustee Baker stated, “with something as important as this, I would like to know how we are going to define racism and also what constitutes racial slurs to what ethnic groups or identity groups that would refer to.”

Arend explained that “she could look it up in Wikipedia and look up ethnic slurs to find a list and felt that is enough of a description.”

Baker stated that a teacher may be fired for saying an ethnic slur without knowing it was an ethnic slur; in addition, she asked if it could go back in time and be retroactive, as seen throughout the nation at this time.

Arend said he did not feel any of the District’s teachers were that “stupid” not to know what an ethnic slur is and noted that the District could not go back and fire a teacher for a resolution that was passed today per the constitution.

The board continued a discussion on what was discussed in the committee meetings and why a list was not provided; in the middle of discussion, the board had to vote to extend the meeting time to 10:45 p.m.

Continued discussion included the zero-tolerance policy and the status, along with what happens to complaints and addressing how to correctly follow up. Baker and Bausch both would like to see the resolution provide guidance and whistleblower provisions.

Board passed the resolution as written in a 4-3 vote, with Trustees Baker, Bausch, and Reed voting no against it due to its need to be improved.

Next on the agenda was J.1.

Proposed Revisions BP 7310: Naming Facilities and Buildings (1st Reading) and Rescission of BP 1331 presented

by Jen Gaviola requested consideration and will be brought back at the next meeting for approval.

The last agenda item of the evening was J.2. Measure M Project Priorities: Aquatics Complex was voted to hold for the next board meeting due to the time after hearing one caller asking for a discussion.

Swim Paso posted on social media directly following the meeting, “we were patient; we stayed on hold for hours. We were the only agenda item not completed. We apologize to all our supporters. Hope you watch the PRJUSD YouTube replay where we were cut off at the very end of the meeting.”

The next regularly scheduled meeting will be on Tuesday, Apr. 6 at 6 p.m. after closed session. To view this meeting or any past meeting, visit the PRJUSD YouTube channel at youtube. com/watch?v=Mymac7aMZlE.

AHS Tennis Stays Hot, Bearcats Open Baseball and Softball Season Templeton Eagles swim begins with impressive times

By CONNOR ALLEN Atascadero he AHS football team kicked off their season on Friday night with a road contest against the Arroyo Grande Eagles. While in years past, this would have been considered a league matchup, this season, Atascadero is in the Ocean League, making this regular game against a familiar opponent.

The Atascadero Greyhounds made a trip to Arroyo Grande after a COVID complication postponed what was supposed to be an opener against Pioneer Valley. The Greyhounds battled till the very end, scoring twice in the fourth quarter, but ultimately their comeback effort fell short, falling 33-21.

The Atascadero Cross Country team was back in action this Friday with a home matchup against the consistently strong San Luis Obispo High School team. The Greyhounds ran hard but lost to the Tigers, being without some of their top racers.

T

matches while only dropping two sets total.

Tuesday, the Greyhounds hosted the Warriors and cruised their way into an 8-1 victory. Thursday, Atascadero made the trip to Santa Maria, made one roster tweak moving Noella Breytenbach into the no.1 singles position, and blasted their way to a 9-0 victory without surrendering a single set. Atascadero’s Kyla Stokes, who has been playing in the no. 5 singles position, played a perfect week. In her two matches, Stokes did not lose a single game-winning each of the four sets 6-0.

The AHS girls tennis team is now 5-1 overall and 4-1 in the Mountain League this season.

Paso Robles he Paso Robles Bearcats opened their football season Friday night with a Mountain League matchup against the St. Joseph Knights but were shutout, losing 44-0. Friday’s game was the first for new head coach Matt Carroll and it appears as though he has found his running back for the future in sophomore Leo Kemp. While the offense did not generate any points in the opener, the big back ran downhill with a bruising style all night, accumulating 113 yards on 22 carries.

Paso Robles will look to bounce back from the week one loss this Friday when they travel to San Luis Obispo Tigers in their second league matchup of five in a row to open the season.

PRHS baseball and softball also opened their seasons this Saturday with games against Nipomo. The boys hosted the Titans at Barnhart Field while the girls were on the road.

The Bearcats softball team kicked off the year with a dominant victory led by pitcher Jaiden Ralston who threw a complete-game shutout with 13 strikeouts. Ralston only allowed three total hits on the afternoon and also added two RBI with a big hit in the fifth inning. First basemen Andie Dizon also recorded an RBI in the fifth inning and was the

Loff (12:09.72) placing fifth, Sydney Moore (12:43.02) placing eighth, and Sophia Berry (12:56.19) coming in tenth.

The Bearcat boys placed three runners in the top 10 on Saturday. Cameron LeClair finished first for Paso Robles and fifth overall with a time of 10:25, followed by Ethan Short (10:49.59) and Diego Ortega (10.49.94), who finished ninth and tenth, respectively.

Templeton riday afternoon, the Templeton Eagles cross country teams faced off with their rival, Morro Bay, in a soggy 4,000-meter race on the Pirates’ home course. This week, the two teams would split the series, with the Eagle boys winning their race while the Eagle girls came up three points short.

As he has this entire season, Josh Bell outpaced everyone en route to the overall victory with a time of 12:50, but it was the strength of the entire boy’s team that was the story against Morro Bay. Templeton swept the podium on Friday and placed five total runners in the race’s top six places. Jayden Buck (14:07) finished in second place, followed by Nick Jansen (14:17) in third. The pair of Max Chalekson (14:48) and Nikita Norton (14:54) finished in fifth and sixth, respectively. The boys won 17-54.

On the lady’s side, both teams agreed to run with only four girls and count the scores based on each team’s top three finishers. The race was very close, but ultimately the Pirates just edged out the victory. Maddie Bobbitt led the entire

Faith Rocha once again led the pack for the girls team and placed the highest of any Greyhound finishing third with a time of 15:09.86.

Anna Archibald crossed the finish line next for the Hounds in tenth place with a time of 16:23.64, followed by Quinn Dubrul (16:41.67) in twelfth, Amelie Lovo (17:01.14) in fourteenth and Bella Otter (17:15.83) in fifteenth.

On the boys side, the Greyhounds had two more runners finish in the top 10, with Kyle Shatwell finishing eighth overall with a time of 13:27.45, followed by Dane Hardy in tenth with a time of 13:52.14. The final three Atascadero boys, Karl Walrod, Kyle Sanchez and Nahan Cooks, finished the race one after another twelfth through fourteenth, respectively.

The Atascadero girls tennis team played two more times last week in a home-andhome matchup with Righetti High School and continued their strong start winning both

only player on the day to record multiple hits going 2-for-4.

The Bearcat boys also began their season with a victory defeating Nipomo 7-2 under the lights. Carson Turnquist got things started for the Crimson’ Cats on the mound dealing three hitless innings with six strikeouts. Four total Bearcats pitched on Saturday and collectively gave up only two hits and surrendered zero earned runs.

Offensively it was a busy day for Paso Robles as 11 different players registered a hit, but none of them went further than Drew Wade’s fourth inning long ball that carried over the centerfield wall. Christian Rowley and Austin Taylor each added two RBI on the day.

Saturday morning, the Bearcats cross country teams were back in action after a week off from competition. Paso Robles ran in a 2 mile dual meet against Arroyo Grande but could not beat the Eagles on either the boys or girls side losing 16-47 and 20-37, respectively.

Paso Robles was led by junior speedster Charlotte Castelli who finished third overall behind Arroyo Grande’s Taylor Jones and Jenna LeNay with a time of 11:30.8. Castelli was joined by three fellow Lady Bearcats in the top ten, with Madeline

way winning her fifth consecutive race with a time of 15:33. Morro Bay was able to place runners in second, third and fourth, which gave them the slim 9-12 victory. Templeton’s Hannah Macfarlane finished fifth (18:06), followed by Awa Larence (18:07) in sixth and Ashlyn Estes (18:54) in eighth.

The Templeton Eagle swim team has also begun their season and has posted some impressive times, including a new school record, in their first two events of the season. On Saturday, Mar. 20, Templeton swam against San Luis Obispo High School, and Brianna Griffiths broke the school record in the 100-yard breaststroke with a time of 1:11.87. On Friday, Mar. 19, Templeton was in a dual meet against Morro Bay, and the girls medley relay team of Elyse McIntyre, Griffiths, Claire Oppedahl, and Jenna Sanders took first place. Each of the four girls in the medley relay also took first in separate individual events.

Greyhounds Girls Golf Off to Strong Start Defeating Bearcats

By CONNOR ALLEN NORTH COUNTY — The Atascadero girls golf team is off to one of their hottest starts in recent memory, currently holding a record of 3-1 after defeating the Paso Robles Bearcats 240-259 on Monday afternoon at Chalk Mountain Golf Course.

For the past three years, the Greyhound girls golf team has been led by senior Katie Burson, who has started on varsity since her freshman year. In her junior season, Burson advanced to the state qualifying tournament and shot an 83 while finishing as the low scorer (medalist) in 11 of her 18 matches. This season, Burson is once again leading the Hounds, but it’s the support of the girls

behind that turned the team into a serious contender in the Mountain League.

Burson continues to hold the no. 1 position for AHS. Still, the four juniors behind her, Alli Hesch, Haylee Ferrell, Mckenna Smith, and Selina Garcia, have thrust the Hounds to the top of the league due to their hard work and dedication to improving their game, not just this offseason but every year since they joined the team as a freshman.

“Those juniors have been with us since they were freshmen, and each year they have got better and better, and now we have a very strong team.”

AHS head golf coach Kara Ferrell told the Atascadero News. “The core of those juniors have worked really hard. I have to give them

credit, they worked really hard in the offseason and it has made a big difference this year for us.”

Atascadero’s no. 6 spot belongs to sophomore Brooke Halsey who, like her teammates, has been playing lights out this season and has improved in each of the three events she has played in this year.

It’s not just that they are winning; it also about who the Greyhounds are beating.

Two of their wins in the early part of the season have come against Arroyo Grande and Righetti, who the Hounds have been unable to beat for the past few years while the two schools traded the league title back and forth.

“We beat Arroyo Grande in the very first match of the season,” Ferrell said. “In all

my years of doing this, we have never beaten Arroyo Grande because they are a very phenomenal program.

Then we beat Righetti last week, who has the MVP [Claire Alford].”

Atascadero’s lone loss came at the hands of the Righetti Warriors on March 15 when Atascadero made the trip to Rancho Santa Maria. The Warriors posted a score of 266, just two strokes lower than the Hounds, who posted a 268. Three days later, the Atascadero girls hosted Righetti on their home course (Chalk Mountain) and beat the Warriors by ten strokes, posting a 243 overall score.

It appears as if the Mountain League is up for grabs this season, and the Hounds have as good a shot at the title

as anyone. Currently, their biggest competition seems to be the San Luis Obispo Tigers, who are 4-1 so far this year.

The Greyhounds will make a trip to Cypress Ridge Golf Course this Thursday to make up a game against Arroyo Grande that was canceled earlier this season due to rain.

LOCAL NEWS Good News • Real News • Your Hometown News VIRTUAL EVENT

Atascadero Chamber of Commerce Host Annual Gala and Awards Virtually Tickets on sale now for a “Speakeasy Night” STAFF REPORT ATASCADERO — The Atascadero Chamber of Commerce announced that this year’s Annual Gala and Awards will be held virtually on Saturday, Apr. 17 at 7 p.m.

The theme for this year’s event is “Speakeasy Night,” full of fun and excitement right from the comfort of your own home.

This event is the Chambers premier annual event that kicks off a year-long body of work to empower local businesses to thrive as the community begins to emerge towards a post-pandemic environment.

From dynamic local speakers, fantastic local entertainment, and an interactive silent auction, this

will be an exciting and fast-paced event that is open to the entire community. Similar to previous years, the Gala will feature awards for Citizen of the Year, Business of the Year, Non-Profit of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year, and Ambassador of the Year.

“Due to the uncertainty of being able to meet in person, the Gala is moving forward virtually with a ‘speakeasy’ theme,” Josh Cross, Interim CEO of the Atascadero Chamber of Commerce, said. “We wanted a theme that felt reflective of the times in the sense that we are asking folks to safely celebrate in their own homes while participating in an event that will support the economic future of our community.”

Attendees can select from three themed ticket options ranging from $25 to $125.

The ‘Moonshine’ ticket includes

a raffle ticket for an item valued at $350 or more.

The ‘Side Car’ ticket includes a raffle ticket, a take-out charcuterie platter, baguette, and bottle of wine.

In addition, the ‘Sidecar’ ticket now includes a fresh baguette from Hush Harbor Bakery and a large charcuterie box from Ancient Peaks Winery.

The ‘Bees Knees’ package includes a raffle ticket, take-out dinner for two, and a bottle of wine.

“We are excited to partner with some of our community’s top restaurants and purveyors to offer high-quality take-out dining experiences and know that attendees will feel good about supporting an important local industry,” says Cross.

This year the Chamber is excited to announce that Nina Lozano, co-anchor with KSBY News, will be the Master of Ceremo-

nies. Lozano is originally from the Philippines and a proud graduate of the University of the Philippines Diliman, where she received her bachelor’s degree in Broadcast Communications.

Lozano joined the KSBY News team in October of 2020; before moving to the Central Coast, she spent three years at KTNV-TV, the Scripps-owned ABC affiliate in Las Vegas, Nevada, where she was an anchor and reporter. Before that, she worked as a reporter in Rochester, New York.

“Being a part of this community makes me proud to call the Central Coast home,” Lozano said.

The Chamber said that Lozano will bring excitement and energy to the virtual gala program to make the community feel like they are celebrating all together even though it is online.

Three fun VIP experiences from

Alta Colina Winery, Wild Fields Brewhouse, and Forager Spirits will begin at 5:30 p.m. on the evening of the Gala and hosted by the owners of the businesses.

To purchase tickets, visit AtascaderoChamber.org.

This year funds from Speakeasy Night will support local entrepreneurs and new businesses in the Atascadero community.

Contributions go towards the expansion of BridgeWorks Coworking Spaces in downtown Atascadero.

Bridgeworks Coworking provides functional and affordable spaces to work in our community. That means that every ticket purchased and items that are bid on supports the local entrepreneurial spirit of Atascadero.

“Besides that, our team guarantees that this event will be the bee’s knees!” Cross said.

COMMUNITY

Local Service Organizations Collaborate to Deliver Groceries to Homebound Seniors SLO Food Bank, Wilshire Community Services, and Ride-On Transportation join resources STAFF REPORT SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY — A Feeding America grant is making it possible for three local social service organizations to work together to deliver free, weekly groceries to SLO County’s most isolated community members.

The SLO Food Bank, Wilshire Community Services, and Ride-On Transportation will collaborate to meet the challenging needs of seniors who struggle to access food because of transportation and financial barriers. This program, which will expand routes countywide this year, will provide weekly grocery deliveries-including shelf-stable

foods, fresh produce, and proteins--directly to the homes of low-income, homebound seniors.

Income is one barrier, and another is access. These older adults are typically homebound and isolated, with few transportation options or support systems, especially with safety concerns regarding COVID-19.

“Our goal is to decrease food insecurity while increasing nutrition and health for homebound seniors in our community.

We are thrilled with this partnership, which utilizes the strengths of each agency to meet this community need,” says Andrea Keisler, Community Programs Director at the SLO Food Bank.

While the SLO Food Bank community is comprised of an extensive network of agency partners and direct distributions, most services require participants to visit a specific pantry, meal site, or food distribution to pick up food. This may be a barrier

for those in the community who lack reliable access to transportation or who have mobility issues. The global pandemic and stay-athome orders have also reinforced the need for a delivery model for our most isolated community members.

Partnering the SLO Food Bank with Wilshire Community Services is a natural fit, as Wilshire currently has the infrastructure to serve older adults in San Luis Obispo County in-home, including services like counseling, transportation, mental health support, and friendly visits. Wilshire’s Jen Kaplan shares, “Throughout the COVID pandemic, we’ve gotten more calls from older adults that are struggling with food insecurity; this partnership is a great way to make sure seniors are getting their basic food and safety needs met.” While the SLO Food Bank operates over 60 neighborhood distributions across the County per month, a plan to add additional routes for home deliv-

ery without extra staff or fleet assets became daunting. For this reason, partnering with Ride-On Transportation for the logistical leg of this program is a smart choice.

Wilshire Community Services will provide intake and case management, SLO Food Bank will procure, store and pack groceries, and Ride-On Transportation will deliver groceries directly to homes on a weekly basis. By the end of the year, we anticipate that 300 households per week will benefit from this program.

To find out if you or someone you know qualifies for this program, please contact Jennifer Kaplan at Wilshire Community Services jkaplan@wilshirehcs.org or (805)547- 7025 ext. 2216.

COMPETITION

Cal Poly Wins First at National Grocers Association Team of four Cal Poly agricultural business seniors won the NGA 2021 Student Case Study STAFF REPORT SAN LUIS OBISPO — A team of four Cal Poly agricultural business seniors won first place in the National Grocers Association (NGA) 2021 Student Case Study Competition for their presentation on how grocers can combat the significant economic issues caused by COVID-19 by staying competitive through their “local supply chains” against low-price operators.

The Cal Poly team included students Katherine “Scottie” Lester, Joshua Smith, Annika Bertelsen, and Amber Eckert.

Agribusiness Associate Professor Ricky Volpe advised the team.

The National Grocers Association (NGA) hosts the annual competition, which moved to a virtual platform this year.

Each year, the NGA Foundation selects an independent retailer and a pressing

industry issue to use as a subject for the competition. The competing schools are all members of the Food Industry University Coalition, which has programs related directly to the food retail sector. After months of research, student teams present their findings to a panel of judges, the independent retailer featured as the competition’s subject, and NGA Show attendees.

Five schools, including Cal Poly, competed on Mar. 10, delivering presentations demonstrating how retailers with strong local supply chains were better equipped than their competitors in dealing with issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Cal Poly team prepared throughout the winter quarter. Advisor Volpe hosted an internal competition where five student teams enrolled in the senior project course Applied Business Problems prepared their solutions. The winning team advanced to represent Cal Poly at the NGA competition.

“The competition requires the combination of speaking ability, graphic presentation, data analysis, and industry outreach,”

Volpe said. “I believe our team began the competition with some aptitude for each of these but grew significantly in all four dimensions as the quarter progressed. I also believe they learned much about collaboration and project management.”

Bertelsen, an agricultural business senior, said she learned a lot about the grocery industry by participating in the competition. “While everyone can come up with ideas on how the grocery industry could better serve consumers, it takes research and proof of concept to take these ideas to the next level,” she said. “My team went through trial and error of finding different solutions and then proving them to be infeasible until we landed on our unique solution of a subscription-based grocery box highlighting local items.”

The student teams offered solutions to real-world issues facing the grocery industry, preparing them for the challenges they will face working in the industry upon graduation.

“Despite the necessary move of the competition from an in-person venue to a virtual one, these students generated much

excitement with their forward-thinking ideas for real-world scenarios,” said NGA Foundation Director Maggie White. “We congratulate the Cal Poly team along with the other worthy contenders. Their performance is a testament to the great leadership potential coming up in our industry.”

The win was a team effort. “Any success starts with a solid team,” said team member Lester, who will work at Altman Plants in San Diego County upon graduation in June. “Individually and as a group, my team members are motivated hard workers, and because of those factors, we were able to secure a victory for Cal Poly.”

About NGA is the national trade association representing the retail and wholesale grocers that comprise the independent sector of the food distribution industry. The independent grocery sector is accountable for close to 1 percent of the nation’s overall economy and is responsible for generating $131 billion in sales, 944,000 jobs, $30 billion in wages, and $27 billion in taxes. NGA members include retail and wholesale grocers, state grocers’ associations, and manufacturers and service suppliers. Visit nationalgrocers.org.

GUIDELINES

PRJUSD Superintendent Announces State Amends Spectators Guidelines at Sporting Events Cunningham, Assembly Colleagues Call on CDPH to Change “Outrageous” Guidance on Youth Sports Spectators STAFF REPORT PASO ROBLES — On Tuesday, Mar. 23, Assemblyman Jordan Cunningham (R-San Luis Obispo) and a group of 12 other Assembly Republicans called on California Department of Public Health Director Dr. Tómas Aragón to change the department’s guidance limiting spectators at outdoor youth sports events to one spectator per player. The guidance issued quietly last week is different than the guidance given to pro and college sporting events.

“For the past several months, young athletes and their parents have been working extremely hard to get back onto the field, the court, and into the pool,” the letter states.

“While kids across the state are now able to safely play the sports they love, no more than one adult per participant may attend a youth sports game under new CDPH guidelines.

“To be frank, these guidelines are outrageous. There is no scientific or medical justification for them.”

While the CDPH’s guidelines prohibit families watching their children play sports from the stands, entire families are still allowed to dine indoors or go to a movie theater.

“Given that there is no science to show that eating indoors or going to a movie is more dangerous than watching a youth sports game, we implore you to immediately change these guidelines. If entire families can go see a movie or watch a professional sports team play, there is no reason a family cannot safely watch one of their kids play or perform,” the letter concludes.

Last week, CDPH quietly announced via an FAQ that no more than one immediate family member per participant could attend outdoor youth sporting events. CDPH also banned recruiters and scouts. These guidelines do not change based on the county’s tier.

Outdoor professional stadiums, starting Apr. 1, are allowed to admit up to 20 percent of their stadium’s capacity for professional sporting events if their county is in the red tier. Professional stadiums in the orange tier are allowed to admit up to 33 percent capacity.

Following this, Paso Robles Joint Unified School District (PRJUSD) Superintendent Curt Dubost announced at the board meeting tonight that San Luis Obispo County Public Health informed the District that the State of California has decided to update the guidance on attendance at athletic events. According to Dubost, there is no longer a limited number of observers at sporting events. Bands, cheerleaders, and others all can now attend any event.

No written notice was received at the time of print.

LOCAL NEWS COVID-19 UPDATE

Recent Statistics on COVID and the Blueprint for a Safer Economy Community members age 50+ now eligible for COVID-19 vaccine STAFF REPORT SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY – The California Department of Public Health (CDPH) released the most recent statistics on COVID-19 in the State under the Blueprint for a Safer Economy.

Blueprint Summary (as of Mar. 23) • 8 counties in the Purple (widespread) Tier • 39 counties in the Red (substantial) Tier, which is where SLO County remains • 9 counties in Orange (moderate) Tier • 2 county in the Yellow (minimal) Tier COVID-19 Data as of Today • California has 3,549,101 confirmed cases to date.

Numbers may not represent true day-over-day change as reporting of test results can be delayed.

• California 7-day positivity rate is 1.7 percent.

• There have been 52,525,010 tests conducted in California. This represents an increase of 160,229 during the prior 24-hour reporting period.

San Luis Obispo County as of Mar. 24 • 20,309 total cases since March 2020

• 6 new cases • 216 active cases • 9 cases in the hospital (3 in ICU) • 19,831 recovered cases, 98 percent recovery rate • 253 deaths 0.012 percent death rate (difference being the 228 active cases) Tracking Variants Multiple variants of the virus that causes COVID19 have been identified globally during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Most variants do not have a meaningful impact. For more information on the variants CDPH is currently monitoring visit cdph. ca.gov.

On Friday, Mar. 17, the CDPH notified the County of San Luis Obispo Health Agency that a county resident tested positive for the B.1.1.7 variant of COVID19, also known as the U.K. variant.

This individual has completed their isolation period and is no longer infectious. County officials are investigating this case further, and no other cases of this variant have been identified in SLO County.

“We are so close to ending this pandemic, and we can get there with your help,” said Dr. Penny Borenstein, County Health Officer. “Continue to wear your mask in public, stay physically distanced from those who don’t live with you, get tested for COVID19, and get vaccinated

against COVID-19 if you are eligible. These actions will continue to protect you from spreading the variants.”

To date, just over 100,000 people in SLO County have been vaccinated against COVID19, and the risk of spread remains substantial here, keeping SLO County in the Red Tier of the State’s Reopening Plan.

According to Borenstein, vaccines in the U.S. appear to remain effective against severe impacts of COVID19, even against these variants. As more cases of the variant appear, additional information is being gathered. The CDC considers a variant “of concern” when there is evidence that it spreads more easily, causes more severe disease, and leads to increased hospitalizations and deaths.

On Feb. 25, CDPH issued a Health Alert warning of increased identification of COVID-19 virus variants across the State, nation, and globe. It identified “variants of concern,” including B.1.1.7, B.1.135, and P.1.

On Mar. 17, the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention further escalated the variants B.1.429 and B.1.427 from “variants of interest” to “variants of concern,” and both are prominent statewide.

More than seven of these variant cases were identified in SLO County weeks

ago before these variants were classified as variants of concern.

“Our community can make it through this pandemic,” said Dr. Borenstein. “It’s going to take the collective efforts of our central coast community to stop these variants from spreading. Mask up, keep your distance, get tested if you’ve been exposed, and get the vaccine when it’s your turn.”

On Monday, Mar. 22, health officials announced that all community members aged 50 and older are now eligible to receive a COVID-19 vaccine in SLO County.

“More people can now get the safe and effective vaccines that will help us end this pandemic,” Borenstein said. “Risk for severe illness or death from COVID-19 increases with age, and we are happy to begin vaccinating community members age 50 and older.”

The County Public Health Department has enough vaccine supply to administer 10,000 first doses this week and plans to have enough for at least 10,000 first doses next week as well. Other vaccine providers also have more vaccines and will open more appointments throughout the coming days and weeks.

“This vaccine is worth the wait, and we’re pleased that so many doses have

been administered in SLO County,” said Dr. Borenstein. “If you are eligible, get vaccinated as soon as you can to protect yourself, your loved ones, and our community.”

Nearly 110,000 doses of vaccine have been administered in SLO County to date, thanks to increased vaccine supply from the State and federal supply to local pharmacies. The County Public Health Department has administered nearly 78,000 of those doses, and other vaccine providers have administered the rest. Last week, the County Public Health Department administered more than 9,000 doses of the COVID-19 vaccine, following the Mar. 10 expansion of vaccine eligibility to certain frontline workers and residents at high risk for severe illness or death.

On Mar. 10, the County expanded eligibility to frontline workers in Education & Childcare, Food & Agriculture, and Emergency Services, as well as anyone 16 or older with certain high-risk medical conditions or disabilities. These groups remain eligible, but the County estimates that many have already received vaccine.

For assistance signing up for the County’s appointment registry, call the Phone Assistance Center at (805)5432444 or (805)781-4280.

VACCINATION

Hundreds of SLO County Agriculture Workers Receive COVID-19 Vaccine Special clinic in Arroyo Grande vaccinates 600 in partnership with Farm Worker Outreach Task Force STAFF REPORT SAN LUIS OBISPO — The County of San Luis Obispo Public Health reported that more than 600 County agriculture workers received COVID-19 vaccinations at a special half-day clinic in Arroyo Grande on Friday, Mar. 19.

The event was hosted in collaboration with partners in the SLO County Farm Worker Outreach Task Force and the first of several planned at the County’s vaccination clinics in Paso Robles and Arroyo Grande.

“I am thrilled that together we

can provide vaccines to so many of our local agriculture workers,” said Dr. Penny Borenstein, County Health Officer. “Events like this are key to ensuring equitable and efficient access to vaccines, and I am grateful to the partners working tirelessly with us to ensure farmworkers get the critical protection this vaccine provides.”

According to reports, agriculture workers and their families across California have faced increased risk from COVID-19. This clinic for agricultural employers, farm labor contractors, and community partners has helped register workers in groups. Multilingual volunteers from the Promotores Collaborative, Herencia Indígena, and Dignity Health provided on-site interpretation and health education.

“It’s so important for our farm workers, especially in our Latino and Indigenous communities who have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19, to get updated health information and services like the vaccine from trusted messengers in an environment that is welcoming and safe,” said Erica Ruvalcaba-Heredia, Director of the Promotores Collaborative of San Luis Obispo County.

Prior to the event, SLO County reports that health educators visited work sites to share COVID-19 vaccine information. According to the County, the goal is to build on the ongoing work of SLO County’s Farm Worker Outreach Task Force, which is convened by the County in collaboration with agriculture and health care partners.

Workers in the food and agricul-

ture sector can also get the vaccine at the County’s regular vaccine clinics or from community providers like pharmacies.

“This is a proud day for our Farm Bureau and agriculture community.

I don’t think we’ve ever been a part of something more important than getting this vaccine to our essential agricultural workers,” said Brent Burchett, Executive Director of the San Luis Obispo County Farm Bureau. “We never stopped farming during this pandemic. So many times over this past year, we’ve heard ‘thank you, farmworkers,’ but today, I think we truly showed our gratitude for their work.”

SCAMMERS

Health Officials Warn of Emerging COVID-19 Vaccine Scams STAFF REPORT SAN LUIS OBISPO — The County of San Luis Obispo health officials report that they have received information stating that scams involving the COVID-19 vaccine encourage residents to remember if something seems too good to be true it probably is. Scammers are using telemarketing calls, email, text messages, social media platforms, and door-to-door visits to perpetrate COVID-19-related scams.

“The vaccine brings great

promise that we will soon be able to return back to a more normal life,” said Dr. Penny Borenstein, County Health Officer. “Unfortunately, some people want to take advantage of people’s desire to get vaccinated for their own criminal benefit.”

Protecting yourself is the best course of action. Always verify the spelling of web addresses and email addresses that look trustworthy, as they may be imitations of legitimate websites.

However, if you are unsure if a message you receive is legiti-

mate, reach out to family, friends, or the Phone Assistance Center at (805)543-2444, and a staff member will help you determine if the message you received is real or a scam.

Tips on how to spot a potential scam: • Being asked to pay out of pocket to get the vaccine sooner.

• Requirements to provide credit card information for “shipping purposes.”

• Charging a fee to gain access to a vaccine or to add a person’s

name to a vaccine waiting list.

• Offers by marketers to sell or ship doses of vaccine for payment.

• Receiving ads or surveys for vaccines through social media platforms or unfamiliar email addresses.

• Claims of FDA approval for a vaccine or treatment of which you’ve never heard.

Always be sure to check for the latest vaccine information on RecoverSLO.org/vaccine, which lists county-run vaccine sites, current eligibility requirements,

as well as the pharmacy partners that are currently providing vaccines in our community.

If you believe you have been the victim of COVID-19 fraud, immediately report it to: • HHS-OIG Hotline: (800)HHS-TIPS or tips.hhs.gov • FBI Hotline: (800)CALL-FBI or ic3.gov • CMS/Medicare Hotline: (800)MEDICARE For updates on COVID-19 in SLO County, visit ReadySLO.org.

SENTENCING

Stiles Sentenced to Prison for Vehicular Homicide SLO County jury convicted Stiles of multiple offenses, gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated STAFF REPORT SAN LUIS OBISPO — San Luis Obispo County District Attorney Dan Dow announced on Mar. 23 that the Honorable Jacquelyn H. Duffy has sentenced Chelsea Annmarie Stiles (27) to serve 15 years and eight months in state

prison for her conviction of multiple offenses, including gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, which resulted in the death of Terry Tilton (72) of San Luis Obispo.

In December 2020, a San Luis Obispo County jury convicted Ms. Stiles of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated; driving under the influence of a drug causing death; four counts of assault with a deadly weapon using an automobile; leaving the scene of a vehicle collision causing injury; child abuse; and misdemeanor possession of cocaine.

The deadly crash sequence

occurred at 6 p.m. on Dec. 1, 2019, on Highway 227 when Stiles, while under the influence of cocaine, intentionally rear-ended an automobile containing a family of four at 74 miles per hour, disabling the vehicle. About 19 seconds later, Stiles drove into the opposing lane of travel striking Tilton’s vehicle head-on at 68 miles per hour, killing him instantly.

The defendant’s 18-month-old daughter and two dogs were also in her vehicle at the time of the collisions.

At trial, the San Luis Obispo County jury was not able to reach

a unanimous verdict on the most serious charge of murder, resulting in a split decision of 11-1 in favor of guilt.

“Driving under the influence of drugs is deadly serious, as this case tragically illustrates,” said Assistant District Attorney Eric Dobroth.

“Ms. Stile’s decision to drive in her compromised condition endangered not only the life of her very young daughter within the vehicle but every other driver on the roadway that evening. Our hearts go out to the surviving family and friends of Terry Tilton, who were patient throughout the criminal justice

process. Our community is thankful for the jury’s tireless effort and attention in this nearly two-monthlong trial, particularly in light of the COVID-19 safety precautions.”

The case was investigated by the California Highway Patrol with the assistance of the District Attorney’s Bureau of Investigation. It was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Eric J. Dobroth and Deputy District Attorney Ben Blumenthal.

R

obert Lee Gruber died on February 12, 2021, from a courageous battle and amazing fight against Parkinson’s Disease.

Robert Lee Gruber was born in Montgomery City, Missouri, on June 25, 1942, to Marvin and Lucille Gruber. As a young man, Robert chose to fight for our county. He enlisted and served in the Air force for four years and eight years

anny Charles Bryant, aged 74, passed away due to health complications from COVID-19 on Sunday, February 28, in San Luis Obispo.

MARIEL MASCORRO 1987 - 2021

M

ariel Mascorro passed away unexpectedly at the age of 33 on March 5, 2021. Her family and friends are deeply saddened by her passing. Mariel was affectionately known as ‘Shorty’ to all those who loved her. She was a fierce advocate for her family, friends, and furbabies. At 4’8” tall, she refused to be overlooked.

Although Mariel faced many obstacles in her life, her courage and strength were unstoppable.

Mariel never let her disabilities and pain define her. Instead, she was defined by her strength of character, generosity of heart, and kindness of spirit. Mariel had a knack for bargain-hunting and gift-giving, touching others’

in the Navy. During his time in the Navy, he served three years on the USS Frank E Evans ( DD-754).

He survived the collision between the USS Frank E Evans destroyer and the Melbourne in 1969 in the Vietnam War. He took great pride in serving in Vietnam and continued advocating for the 74 men who lost their lives on that destroyer and never were acknowledged on the Vietnam Wall.

Robert was a lifetime member of the VFW in Atascadero, CA, and Georgetown, TX. He took great pride in a perfect barbecue and always had his secret sauce on hand.

He loved watching football, Nascar, drag racing and was a lover of all animals that entered his life. He was a proud member of Saint

Luke’s Episcopal Church in Atascadero.

Robert loved his family tremendously. He leaves behind his loving wife of 50 years, Mary Gruber, his brother Tom Gruber, sister in law Dee Gruber, his daughter Tiffany Ferreira, son in law Justin Ferreira, grandchildren Dylan and Lucy Ferreira, his daughter Heidi Skellen, son in law Daniel Skellen, grandchildren Aimee Brewer, Lee Brewer, and Ethan Landry, great-grandchildren Addison Brewer and Emma Brewer.

Robert also leaves behind numerous nieces and nephews whom he adored.

Robert was kind to everyone he met and had an amazing sense of humor.

He will be deeply missed.

Services to follow in June of 2021, the best barbecue will be held in his honor.

Born on October 1, 1946, in Wichita Falls, Texas, to Charles Bailey and Lottie Bell Bryant.

Dan was the baby of the family.

His parents, along with his three older siblings, showered him with love, spoiled him rotten, and taught him the importance of family.

Dan was a proud U.S. Army Veteran serving with the 25th Infantry Division during the Vietnam War. He was awarded the Bronze Star for Valor and also a Purple Heart.

Once returning from overseas, Dan continued his service

at Fort Hunter Liggett, where he met his future wife Vicki Pauls of Atascadero. This past June marked Dan and Vicki’s 50th wedding anniversary. They were best friends, soul mates, and the typical bickering married couple that, despite everything, relied on love through it all.

Dan was a strict father with a soft heart; anyone who knew Dan could attest to his silliness and absolute devotion to his grandchildren who knew him as their Big Dad. He was an avid reader, loved the Texas Longhorns, researching his family genealogy

and trips to the casino.

Dan struggled with multiple health issues from his Vietnam service, including PTSD, mental health issues, and type 1 diabetes. His family is very grateful for the help he received and accepted later in life through treatment and therapy.

Dan is survived by his wife, Vicki, daughter Brandi Bryant and husband Josh Butterick, daughter Amy Gaines and husband Chris Gaines, son Daniel Bryant and partner Lindsey Love. His pride and joy were his seven grandbabies, Aric

Sweeny, Danielle Ponce, Justin Bryant, Audrey Gaines, Taylor Bryant, Shyann Bryant, and Alice Gaines. He is also survived by his sister JoAnn Horn, niece Julia Bryant, nephews Jack Bryant, James Bryant, Joseph Bryant and Charles Horn, brother-in-law James Wilde and family, sister-inlaw Sandy Nicklaus, sister-in-law Monica Strouss and family, sisterin-law Leslie Heer and family and close family friend Lenore Ballesteros and family.

He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Jack Bryant, and sister Mary Whaley.

hearts with her handmade cards and crafts.

Born on December 14, 1987, in Santa Maria, California, she spent her early life with her parents until her mother passed away when she was 12. Mariel moved to Atascadero in 6th grade to live with her Aunt Ana and Uncle Abraham, where she attended Santa Rosa Elementary School, then Atascadero Junior High, and finally graduated from Atascadero High School in 2006.

While in high school, Mariel was an active member of the Future Farmers of America (FFA), where she worked hard to care for and raised several pigs to show at the California Mid-State Fair.

During the four years, Mariel held several offices and proudly won several ribbons, including the “Reserve Grand Champion” for her beloved pig named Hannah.

These experiences helped Mariel to blossom as an adult and launched her lifelong love of all animals, especially pigs. Mariel was over the moon for all gifts pig-related. She owned tons of pig memorabilia, decorations, and socks! And, boy, oh boy, was she

proud of her ever-growing collection of fun and whimsical socks.

Mariel studied hard at Cuesta Community College, earning her Associates’s Degree in Early Childhood Development. Her dream was to become a teacher and own a Daycare Center. She spent time working as an Intern at the Cuesta North County Day Care and then with her best friend Cory Bishop as a substitute assistant at North County Christian School. She also provided child care services for the ABC Community Group while parents attended bible study. She also enjoyed working part-time at the Paso Robles Pumpkin Patch. In short, children adored Mariel, and Mariel adored children!

A big part of Mariel’s life was her faith and her participation with the Canterbury (Episcopal) Campus-Ministry program here in SLO county. Mariel initially got involved with Canterbury through youth-ministry leadership and quickly became involved as a participant in the young-adult ministry to Cal Poly and Cuesta students. Through Canterbury, Mariel attended

local ecumenical retreats at Camp Ocean Pines in Cambria, Provincial events in Hawaii (2012) and Seattle (2014), and she helped design the SLO Provincial event in 2013. These Provincial events encompassed Episcopal campus ministries from the entire western U.S., and Mariel’s presence at these events touched the lives of many who have reached out to share their condolences. At the local level, Mariel could always be counted on to help with fundraising for Canterbury and was a mainstay as the “ticket person” on the day of the fundraisers, ensuring that she would get to meet and greet everyone. She was dearly loved and will be sorely missed by the Canterbury community.

She is survived by her father Armando Duran, sister Amanda Mascorro, brother Tommy Mascorro, uncles Javier Mascorro and Abraham Martinez, aunt Ana Martinez, nieces and nephews Samantha, Sara, Joseph, Timothy and Isiah, cousins Natalie, Emily, Zack, and Matthew, plus numerous other relatives living throughout

California, Texas, and Mexico.

Additionally, she is survived by her boyfriend Peter Asato, his mother Dorothy Asato-Gallardo (adopted mother-in-law), and her chosen family Barbara Good (mother), Ada Prinsteiner (sister), and David Beausoleil (brother).

We mustn’t forget her beloved furbabies Ben (dog), Princess Peach/PP (dog), and Junior (cat).

Mariel was also a beloved auntie to Bella (dog).

She is preceded in death by her mother, Maria Mascorro Duran, uncle Alfredo Mascorro Jr., and grandparents, Alfredo and Petra Mascorro.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the “Mariel Shorty Mascorro Memorial Scholarship.” Checks payable to Cuesta College Foundation. Mailing address: PO Box 8106 San Luis Obispo CA 93403. All donations must indicate the name of the Scholarship; for additional information, contact 805-546-3279.

• 1 cup quartered button mushrooms • 1 cup thinly sliced white onion • 1⁄2 cup diced red bell pepper • 1 or 2 tsp Dijon-style mustard • 1 or 2 cloves garlic, minced • 1 teaspoon black pepper • 1 cup beef broth (more if needed for gravy) • 1 cup sour cream • 2 tbsp flour • Snipped fresh chives for garnish Directions: Brown stew meat in hot oil until brown on all sides and transfer to slow cooker. Add mushrooms, onion, and red bell pepper to crockpot. Mix mustard, garlic and pepper with a little broth and spread over meat. Pour rest of broth over all. Cover and cook on low 8 to 10 hours or high 4 to 5 hours.

Remove meat, with a slotted spoon to a casserole dish and cover to keep warm. Pour liquid into a medium sauce pan or skillet to make gravy. Whisk flour into sour cream and continue to whisk the mixture into the liquid in the pan. (Add more beef broth to gravy if needed). Cook on medium heat until gravy thickens.

Serve meat and gravy on top of mashed potatoes and garnish with chives.

Enjoy the weekend.

pay huge property taxes on if you find a certain snail there, and my friend had to get a permit that cost $137 just to cut down a DEAD tree on his own property! Another acquaintance is in a tizzy because his pine trees have grown so high they're blocking his solar panels, but the county won't let him cut down his own trees. You have the highest taxes in the country, and high-earning people are leaving the state in droves, so what did politicians in Sacramento do? You passed a law to tax ex-Californian's income if they live in another state but spend 60 days of the year here.

And your most recent scheme to pay $600 to everyone in the state, INCLUDING illegal aliens, would bankrupt you... if you weren't already.

They say that trends start in California and are followed in the other states. If that's the case, to my fellow Californians, might I suggest moving to another country. Like Texas.

Here’s a quick, delicious recipe using your crockpot. I served it this week, and we loved it! I’m going to give you my version.

COLUMNIST

ne of the amazing truths about the life of the patriarch Joseph is there is no recorded sin that he ever committed. We know that he wasn’t perfectly sinless, but the biblical account of his life never mentions that he did anything wrong. Joseph is a wonderful example of a godly man that pleased God in his behavior. The key to Joseph’s godly behavior is the fact that “The Lord was with Joseph” (Genesis 39:2). When a believer relies on the presence and power of God in his life, he can overcome evil temptation.

A godly person who loves God doesn’t want to displease God.

This is a perfect description of Joseph’s character. The biblical record in Genesis 39 informs us that Joseph’s master, Potiphar, had a wife that desired to have a sexual relationship with Joseph.

She was bold about her desire because she personally asked Joseph to “lie with me”: (Genesis 39:7). At first, Joseph refused her offer and told her that as the wife of his master, he hadn’t been given permission to have a sexual relationship with her (Genesis 39:8-9). She didn’t stop appealing to Joseph to commit adultery with her. Joseph’s response was to tell her that to have sex with her would be great wickedness and sin against God (Genesis 39:9). This was the main motivation for Joseph to not commit adultery and violate his master’s trust in him. Joseph sincerely believed this sin would deeply offend both God and his master Potiphar. I personally believe that

this motivation is one of the keys to overcoming any evil temptation. When we truly understand how sin will affect both God and the people we sin against, it should prevent us from hurting other people. Sinning against other people is a manifestation of HATE, not LOVE. Joseph loved God and his master Potiphar and, as a result, refused to sin against them. Understanding the harmful consequences that sin causes should motivate a person to stop committing sinful behavior. The sad part of this episode in Joseph’s life is that Potiphar’s wife slandered him and accused him of attempting to rape her (Genesis 39:10-19). This resulted in Potiphar becoming enraged as expected and putting Joseph in prison (Genesis 39:20). I’m sure Joseph told Potiphar that his wife’s accusation was not true, but it seems clear that Potiphar believed his wife and not Joseph.

Many times in the Bible, people suffer unfairly and unjustly. The good news is the “Lord was with Joseph and showed him mercy” when he went to prison (Genesis 39:21).

Lessons to be Learned.

1. Thinking seriously about the harmful consequences of sin can motivate a person to not commit it. Love will never hurt people: Romans 13:9-10 2. The desire to PLEASE God is the greatest prevention against committing sin.

3. God will be with a believer and comfort him when he is being persecuted for being righteous. God blesses righteous people. This was a beatitude of Jesus given on the Sermon on the Mount: Matthew 5:6.

CLARK CASE NO. 21PR-0076 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the lost WILL or estate, or both of RODNEY A. CLARK. A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by CARA GARVER AKA CARA DESILVA in the Superior Court of California, County of SAN LUIS OBISPO. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that CARA GARVER AKA CARA DESILVA be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests the decedent's lost WILL and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The lost WILL and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held in this court as follows: 04/06/21 at 9:00AM in Dept.

9 located at 1050 MONTEREY STREET, SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA 93408 IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attor-

ney knowledgeable in California law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

CAFFEINE

By Dr. Cindy Maynard

WHAT’S IN A LABEL? Caffeine has its perks, but it can pose problems too.

Find out how much is too much and if you need to curb your consumption.

A

s many as one in three older adults suffer from some form of insomnia ranging from difficulty falling asleep to waking up in the middle of the night, often because of painful ailments or other medical problems.

But some over-the-counter medications commonly used to relieve aches and pains may compound the problem (caffeine is often added to analgesics because it helps decrease pain and other aches).

That’s because these top brands of pain relievers may contain more caffeine than a cup of coffee – a definite problem for someone who’s having trouble sleeping.

The new standard in

According to Tufts University, a study from the National Institute of Aging showed that more than 20 percent of adults using caffeine-containing medications reported having difficulty falling asleep compared to only 13 percent of those who didn’t take the medication.

Caffeine works by stimulating the central nervous system and increasing our heart rate. In the brain, it blocks adenosine (a sleep-promoting chemical) receptors. Normally, adenosine builds up during our waking hours until eventually, we become sleepy.

Caffeine blocks this process making us more alert. Caffeine also blocks our circadian melatonin rhythms, delaying sleep if consumed close to bedtime.

The effects of caffeine are measured by its half-life, which typically lasts about 4-6 hours. Thus, the 6-hour half-life of the caffeinated beverage you consumed in the afternoon could potentially be keeping you up at night.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recommended dosage/day is approximately 400 mg/day. If you have an espresso or a large cup of coffee, analgesics with caffeine, or other caffeine-containing products, this adds up fast. Take a look at the chart below.

Some of the medications have well above the milligrams of caffeine (@100 mg) found in a regular cup of coffee. If you’re swallowing these pain relievers on an average of six-hour intervals, you could be getting as many as six cups of coffee without even realizing it.

If you struggle with insomnia or have a difficult time falling asleep or staying asleep, this might be a sign of caffeine overuse. Look at your intake of coffee or other caffeine-containing products, and you may find a little tweaking here, or there can give you those restful zzzzzzzzzzz’s your mind and body are craving.

Making Communities Better Through Print.™

FROM PAGE ONE BERRY HILL CONTINUED FROM A1

“Of course, I wasn’t planning on the pandemic happening right when it did because we were shut down on Mar. 17 -so we were unable to tell all our customers, and we were going to have big going away parties and telling people that we were moving. They’re just now discovering that we’re here and a part of Berry Hill,” said Storsteen.

The Third Degree Grill is actually Storsteen’s third restaurant venture.

Before Berry Hill Bistro, Storsteen purchased and ran the JBJ’s RoundUp Pizza in Cambria for 15 years. Storsteen’s time at the pizza restaurant was where she learned how to run a restaurant and kicked off her love for the industry.

Growing up, Storsteen enjoyed being in the kitchen like many of her family members.

Storsteen explained, “I didn’t go to culinary school, but from my grandmother all the way from my mother to my aunts, we’ve all been in the kitchen. And I just did a lot of research, and I guess I have a love for it, and it just comes out. That’s my creative outlet.”

Eventually, Storsteen found her way to Paso Robles and moved there while still running the pizza restaurant in Cambria.

Before opening the bistro, Storsteen purchased the Berry Hill Farm but later sold

FOOTBALL CONTINUED FROM A1

only did the Eagles roll through the Ocean League with an undefeated record, but they also did it with juniors as their two top playmakers in quarterback Tyler Kaschewski and running back Josh Berna. This spring season, Kaschewski and Berna are once again side-by-side in the backfield and are already giving defensive coordinators nightmares as they combined for over 300 yards rushing and five touchdowns on Friday night.

The Eagles picked up offensively right where they left off a year ago, scoring points on each of their four first-half drives. While the Eagles are capable of long, sustained drives, it is not often they have to, as was the case against Wasco. Templeton first got on the board thanks to a 15-yard scamper from Kaschewski, who simply bounced the ball outside and was too fast and elusive for the Tiger defense.

On the next drive, on only the second play, Berna took the handoff, stuck his foot in the ground, and sped straight through the heart of the Wasco defense for an untouched 37-yard touchdown run, and the Eagles were off. With their third drive of the evening, the Eagles decided to take to the air. Kaschewski zipped a bubble screen out to Kale Loppnow, who outran everyone to the pylon but was somehow called down at the one-yard line.

Berna would punch it in on the next play, and Templeton was up three scores before eventually tacking on an additional three to

it to focus on the bistro.

Storsteen mentions she has a bit of bad luck when it comes to opening restaurants, “When I opened the Berry Hill Bistro 17 years ago, I was open for two weeks, and then we had the earthquake.”

But now, after surviving what was hopefully the worst of COVID lockdowns, California wildfires which prevented outdoor dining along with heat waves when only outdoor was permitted, Storsteen says she can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

Storsteen thanks her dedicated staff, including her manager, who has been with her since JBJ Pizza.

Being a business in the Paso Market Walk has given Storsteen a sense of community and lit a new passion for her.

“I think that’s what I liked about coming here to the Paso Market Walk. It was a whole new passion. It was something new and different, and it’s been challenging because of the pandemic, but it’s also been fun--we’re optimistic about the future for sure,” says Storsteen.

She continued, “We do see a light at the end of the tunnel. Things are starting to get better--we’re really looking forward to summer.”

After a nearly perfect first half, the Eagles stumbled a bit in the second half as Wasco took to the air in desperation. Templeton, who is very young on the outsides of both their offense and defense, gave up some explosive plays but gained some muchneeded experience as they will face passing offenses in the Mountain League, most notably, St. Joseph.

“I loved how hard we played. They have never been a throwing team, that is the most they have ever thrown, and we have never seen them do a lot of that,” Templeton head football coach Don Crow told the Atascadero News after the game. “All of our receivers and DB’s [defensive backs] are new.

We have some sophomores playing, so there is a lot of baptism under fire tonight, but the key is, when we watch film, do we get better?”

When the final horn sounded, the Eagles walked away with a 39-22 victory and some valuable lessons to build on. Kaschewski finished the game with 164 rushing yards, and three touchdowns on 20 carries, barely outgaining his running mate Berna who ran for 160 yards and two touchdowns on 24 carries.

This Friday, Templeton will play one more tune-up game before entering their brutal Mountain League schedule against a familiar opponent, Morro Bay. Due to COVID19 complications with the Righetti football team, Templeton was forced to reschedule their game with the Warriors and now host Righetti on Apr. 30 in their final game.

HEADHUNTERS CONTINUED FROM A1

After working for Tex Arnold, Moore went to buy his barbershop for a few years. Then Moore bounced around to a few shops, including the Men’s Room, before he landed at Headhunters.

Gates retired from the barbershop in 2011.

About three days later, Moore walked in and took over Gates’s ownership of the shop.

Moore later retired in Oct. 2019.

In the corner was Lyons doing what he does best, cutting Harry Ovitt’s hair.

“My stepdad was a carpenter, but he always wanted to be a barber, so he’s the one that kind of got me into it. So I said, well, I’ll go try it, and if I don’t like it, I have something to fall back on.

I liked it, and I’ve been doing it ever since,” said Lyons.

Lyon moved to Paso in 1979 and in 1989 bought Brownie’s share of the barbershop along with Pushea.

Working as a barber for as long as these men have, they have seen all the trends come and go and then eventually come again.

“We used to get a lot of cowboy kids in here.

They would get the mullet, but they’d get a flat top.

I called them roper doper,” said Lyons.

But all of the men agreed the absolute worst trend they ever saw was, in fact, the bowl cut. I think it is safe to say that trend did not make a second appearance.

Almost any long-time Paso resident or local has been to Headhunters, known someone who goes there or has had their hair cut there for their entire life and now takes their kids there.

Harry Ovitt, a former San Luis Obispo County Supervisor for 20 years, said, “Everybody new that comes to town, they would come in here, and it’s the old fashion barbershop, and you didn’t have to have an appointment, and they were just kind of smitten by the place.”

“The only other place that was more popular than that was Busi’s [bar]--everybody went there,” added Ovitt.

Gates reminds me that being a barber was an honest living.

“You bounced around a little bit, but you made a livin’, and everywhere you went, our clientele usually followed you, which was the good part-everybody knew each other,” said Gates.

After 50 years of cutting hair and over 30 years of cutting hair together, Pushea and Lyons have decided to close Headhunters.

Partly due to a rise in rent, Lyons and Pushea have decided not to sign on for another three-year lease for the shop.

Having to repeatedly close down the barbershop for COVID lockdown took a hard hit on the shop.

“The COVID deal, every time they closed us down, you would see less clients came back,” said Pushea.

Both barbers say they can sense themselves being replaced by fast cuts and even faster-changing trends.

“It kind of opened both of our eyes that we want to slow downwe’ve both been doing it for over 50 years,” said Pushea.

Starting Apr. 1, Lyons will be moving to the Haircut Shop in Atascadero, and Don Pushea will be at the Men’s Room on Golden Hill Road in Paso.

Headhunters is known to many as a reminder of “Old Paso.” Many have told stories of getting their first haircut there and later bringing their children. They remember when cuts were two dollars, the

shoe shiners, and the barbers who came and went.

To Gates, Headhunters was a place for everyone from all walks of life. Cowboys, city folks, criminals, and judges, the barbers of Headhunters cut all their hair.
