Fresno Flyer Vol 3 No 9

Page 1


EDITOR’S NOTE Earlier this month, I was interviewed by a couple of intelligent young women who were embarking on their own entrepreneurial journey. They came with questions about the Flyer its growth, challenges, and future visions. I’m not just the Editor, I’m one of two co-founders for this little enterprise and I’ve been in the trenches since the beginning. I had a lot to say on this topic. In the middle of one of my longwinded answers, it hit me just how much people don’t get to see all the work that happens behind the scenes. You, the reader, see the new issue in its 20-page entirety, but none of the planning, the writers traveling out to interview on site with their subjects, the late nights, and the back n forth conversation to get articles just right. Or myself and the Publisher staying up until the wee hours to make sure the overall design reflects what’s our absolute best. My favorite thing to tell people who ask if the Flyer is successful is that our pickup rate is roughly 90% - meaning, our stops are almost always empty when we come back around to fill them up. And that’s a great feeling. However, no one sees the long hours our drivers go through to make sure the Flyers are delivered across three counties. One of our clients volunteered some time to help distribute papers and when he came back, his first words were “Man, that was tough work.” Drivers zigzag through multiple cities, sling numerous 20lb bundles hand over fist and

continuously dodge traffic getting in and out of their vehicles for hours on end through blistering heat, rain, and the frigid cold. Sometimes, I get an email or call from a frustrated reader who’s wondering why they can’t find a copy of the Flyer at their favorite stop. And maybe this has happened to you - but there are a few things to consider when coming across an empty stand; time of the month, area, and type of stop i.e. box, counter, or wire rack. The beginning of the month is when everything fills up, after about 2 weeks they’ll empty and we’ll come back out for a refill, the end of the month is when everything dries up. Our refills concentrate on the most active stops which, for us, are central Fresno and Clovis, and then we’ll spiderweb our way from there. Of the aforementioned stops, counter stops are the first to empty. Some of this is a science where we can track data and decide when and where to move a stop, some of it is an art form in understanding the mood and culture of Central Valley residents in certain areas, and the rest is pure experimentation. We’re a young entity, just earning our 5-year milestone this summer. We’re not a 2nd or 3rd generation owner, we built this from nothing and we’re always learning how to do it better. Our ‘success’ comes from raw passion, some good ole fashioned Central Valley grit, and you, dear reader, always pushing us to redefine what our ‘best’ truly looks like.


BULLDOGGERS By Will Freeney | memo247365@gmail.com

hile much of the Valley still sleeps, five collegiate athletes take to the arena. Concentration lines their faces, intensely focused on the coach explaining the ‘trick’ to success in the skill at hand. They all watch as one of them attempts to execute the technique - ignoring the rays of light cracking through the early-morning dark as the sun finally rises over the horizon. Success. It worked. Long shadows cascade along the dirt where a penknife juts out from the ground - a target placed there by the coach - and a lasso around it. With ropes in one hand and the other resting on their saddles, the riders take their turns. This is the women’s Breakaway Roping team for the Fresno State Bulldoggers. It’s that time of year again - rodeo season for Fresno as the Clovis Rodeo gears up for its annual event in April. But April is just the regular finale month of rodeo season for the Bulldoggers. The team will have been roping and riding competitively for several months by then. If their current momentum continues, their team will still be in first place in their West Coast Division of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association (the rodeo equivalent of the NCAA). On the weekend of March 8th and 9th, Fresno hosted their event in the Division’s schedule and drove their lead wide open - moving from a frac-

tion of a point lead to 750 points. The Bulldoggers made that breakaway by taking first place in several events. Colton Campbell (Senior, Klamath Falls, OR) won best all-around cowboy, Mitch Parham (Junior, Fresno) won the Bareback Riding event, and Chris Rosedale, (Freshman, Kingsburg) won Bull Riding. The women were represented as well, with Romey Stuhan (Sophomore, Fresno) winning the Breakaway Roping event. The field that they have left in their dust comprises colleges and universities from the entire length of the Central Valley and over the hill into Nevada: Lassen College; Feather River College; Butte College; Clovis Community College; Western Nevada College; West Hills College; West Hills College; College of the Sequoias; Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo; University of Nevada, Reno; University of Nevada, Las Vegas; and University of California, Davis. If you took a look at the competition results, you might have noticed a pre-

ponderance of upperclassmen in the list of event winners. They are only a small portion of all the juniors and seniors on the team. There’s also Caden Lehman (Senior), who competes in Calf Roping and Team Roping Events; Justin Wilson (Senior), who competes in Saddle Bronc Riding and Team Roping; and Cersten Branquinho (Senior), who is a Breakaway and Team Roper. The team already has Lower Division representatives in the standings, though - Romey Stuhan (Sophomore), who, in addition to the Breakaway Roping event she won, competes in Team Roping and Barrel Racing; and Chris Rosedale (Freshman), who won the Fresno Bull Riding event - no one need fear for the future of the Bulldoggers. In addition to Romey and Chris, there are a number of freshmen already on the team: Philip Kniermie (Calf Roping and Team Roping), Cole Dodds (who took second place in the Fresno Calf Roping event), and a cohort of female freshmen competitors (Andi Poole, Jillian Murray, Haley Wilbur, and the Mor-

gan twins - Hunter and Savanna). How do these young athletes attain their level of proficiency? Like any other young athlete - practice. Coach Uhuru Adem oversees their daily practice sessions, Monday through Thursday, providing invaluable advice and suggestions for improved performance. For many of his team members, however, practice in rodeo skills goes back much farther than college matriculation or even high school. Romey Stuhan began Junior Rodeo competition at age five but noted that she was in the saddle with her father while he practiced roping long before that. She has literally grown up rodeo, and it shows in her first place West Coast Division standing in Breakaway Roping - as a sophomore. Excellence in any activity is not solely dependent on the longevity of participation, though. Mitch Parham, the winner of the Fresno Bare Back Riding event, is something of an anomaly. He began his rodeo career as a college Freshman. He had participated in 4H in high school, so he had been around horses but never on top of one. Focused intention and good coaching have made him a rodeo force to be reckoned with,

...continued from pg 3 now in his junior year. As to that coach, Uhuru is new to the team as coach this year, but obviously not new to rodeo. He is a native of Glennville, who competed in college rodeo at Feather River College before transferring to Fresno State, where he continued his college rodeo career and completed his education. He, too, has been active in rodeo since kindergarten age, and after his college graduation became active out of the saddle as a coach, first for West Hills College in 2016 and now for Fresno State. Asked what ‘secret’ he brings to his coaching, he responded, “I think that having a good work ethic helps create success in and out of the arena.” That work ethic is evident in Uhuru. In addition to providing competitive advice to his team members, he is the one who drags the arena, smoothing the dirt to make it safe for the horses and their riders. It’s like mopping the basketball floor or running the Zamboni - only dirtier. And ‘four days a week’ doesn’t adequately convey the time involved in practices, either. It’s a long day - with some event teams meeting at 6 am, some at 2 pm, and some at 6 pm. The season is a long one, too, beginning with its first event in October and continuing until the Division Finals in May (and hopefully, the CNFR in June). But Uhuru made it clear that his team members practice year-round, utilizing the Fresno State rodeo arena whenever it isn’t too muddy and the Animal Science Pavilion when it is. If you aren’t part of the rodeo community, either as a participant, parent, or observer, you may not be aware of all this

activity, just like any other sport you don’t follow. But how could you live in Fresno and not know about a Fresno State athletic team that’s leading its regional standings? You do know that the Bulldogs men’s football team won their division title, don’t you? Well, the low profile is not the result of neophyte status for the Bulldoggers. They are the oldest student club on campus, founded in 1946 which makes them older than the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association (NIRA) itself. When the NIRA was formed in 1949, they held their first competitive intercollegiate rodeo.

Now, 70 years later, they are leading the West Coast Division’s team standings and Men’s All-around (Colton Campbell), Bareback Riding (Mitch Parham), Tie-down Roping (Rial Engelhart), Team Roping (Cole Peterson and Wacey Barrington, heeler) and Breakaway Roping (Romey Stuhan) standings. They also hold #2 (Rial Engelhart) and #3 (Cole Dodds) for All-around, #2 (Cole Dodds) and #3 (Colton Campbell) for Tiedown Roping, and number two through five (Colton Campbell, Wacey Barrington, Jacob Bairos, Rial Engelhart) for Steer Roping. At this level of competitive performance, the

Bulldoggers should be going to Las Vegas for Division Finals in May and from there to the College National Finals Rodeo (CNFR) in Casper, Wyoming, in June. Cheer them on. Follow their saga on the NIRA website (collegerodeo.com). You could even see them perform in-state, combining a trip to the coast with some rodeo when they compete in San Luis Obispo on the weekend of April 11-13.

initially agreed upon. Fed up with the subpar treatment a group of competitors banded together in 1936 to form what is known today as the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) in answer to the lack of accountability and professionalism regularly showed by promoters of the day. PRCA remains the largest sanctioning body of rodeo in the U.S. and Canada. Touring internationally every year, the PRCA Pro Rodeo makes numerous

appearances throughout the U.S. beginning in April and running all the way to end of September. In California alone, the tour made its way through 25 different cities, most notably for the rodeo events in Clovis. However, in 2019, the PRCA will only stop in 5 California cities, Clovis remaining as one of their stops along the tour. The Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association appears in Clovis on April 26th through April 28th at the Rodeo Grounds.

Rodeo Times T

he American cowboy is a beloved image of strength, daring, and unrivaled resolve. He battled the elements, slept under the stars, and fought off the outlaws always out to steal cattle. Some would say he’s the iconic folk-hero of the American West, and for a great many, his spirit lives on in the sport of rodeo. Dating back to the 1800s, the demand for skilled horsemen arose when Spain held many of the land titles across the west. As they established more communities and missionaries they needed to raise cattle, and here is where our cowboy’s story begins. The long cattle drives could be as long as 15 miles per day and required a unique combination of skills to achieve, skills they were always improving… and always comparing. Naturally, informal competitions, the first known rodeos, erupted amongst cowboys as they sought to prove the best in riders and ropers.

Typically existing between ranchers and cowboys, the competitions weren’t yet a public phenomenon. However, with the encroachment of railroads, enforcement of federal land laws, and new settlers staking their claim to build homes, the wide open West became smaller and smaller. Without the long cattle drives, cowboy labor was no longer needed in the large numbers seen in previous years, and as the work disappeared, cowboys took their skills into a new arena that would best be described as the Wild West Show. Popularity grew, and now cowboys could supplement their income by performing before a paying audience captivated by their persona. As recognition spread across the country, rodeos established a new form of cowboy; the professional rodeo competitor. Unfortunately, there were those who would take advantage of the hardworking cowboy by refusing to pay or paying less than

Answers to last issue’s puzzles

Fun Facts

For the Love of the Wild West

1. Many cowboys had been Civil War soldiers, from both the North and the South, and many others— perhaps up to a quarter of all cowboys—were freed ex-slaves. Some cowboys were immigrants from Europe, and others were Mexicans and American Indians. 2. 8 to 12 cowboys could move 3,000 head of cattle along the cattle drives. They might travel 15 miles in a day. Any more than that and the cattle would lose too much weight and arrive too thin. There was also a trail boss and a camp cook along on each drive. 3. Cowboys often wore their clothes for weeks without changing. They wore denim jeans with chaps to protect their legs from the thorny branches their horses rode through. Their wide-rimmed Stetson hats protected them from the sun’s glare and also served as a cup—they’d use it to scoop up water for both themselves and their horses to drink. They wore a bandana around their neck, which they could pull up to protect their nose and mouth from trail dust. 4. The cowboy of myth and reality had his beginnings in Texas. There cattle grew wild with few natural enemies; by the end of the

Civil War there were an estimated 5 million of them. It was then that the cowboy entered his twenty-year golden age, 1866-1886, the era of the open range and the great cattle drives. The incentive was the high price of beef up North, where Union armies had exhausted the supply and the urbanizing East provided a ready market.

OPINION

THE HOMELESS PROBLEM The Smiley Synopsis Spotlight on City of Fresno’s proposed ordinance 14-813 By I. smiley G. Calderón | smileygcalderon@gmail.com

T

here’s been an awful lot of buzz about last month’s surprise proposed Fresno city ordinance section 14-813 of the municipal code, called the Vehicular Transfer Ordinance for short. Although some may say that this ordinance is only a traffic safety issue, the apparent truth is that it is about the homeless in our community. But, what emerged unexpectedly from this proposition, however, is even more surprising. The public saw this proposed ordinance as an infringement upon their very own personal freedom to be generous, something that would be outlawed in the city of Fresno if passed. The public didn’t just see this debacle as an attack on the street poor but as a personal attack on themselves. How dare the city tell us it is wrong to help those in need! How dare it criminalize our goodwill and charity! The good news: strong public opposition derailed section 14-813 and kicked its ass - for now. And you can thank your fellow Fresnans for coming out in force at City Hall in the middle of a Thursday afternoon to patiently say hell no to such a misguided, misinformed, and caustic law in our community. Seriously. But, why do I mention “the homeless problem” for a proposed bill that has no explicit mention of this wording in its draft? I’ll tell you why.

I‘m new to Fresno, originally from southern California, and so as a new Fresnan with a fresh set of eyes, I’ve seen firsthand the severe problem of homelessness on the streets - okay - but I’ve also seen generosity and goodwill for the homeless on these very same streets. In fact, what I’ve learned up til now about living in Fresno is that the typical Fresnan is a generous soul who empathizes with homeless street panhandlers enough to donate a few bucks, or to give out food items or water bottles to people in need - something that this new proposed bill calls an “unlawful transfer.” Unlawful transfer! Suddenly now, out of nowhere, personal charity is under attack and the freedom of generosity is under fire in Fresno - in the very city which needs it the most. It makes us feel good when we help each other because we know that we ourselves could one day need an extra hand. Plus, as a person of faith, helping one another is a tangible expression of that faith. It is the embodiment of love. And Fresnans showed their extra hands of love in full force at that March 21st City Council meeting as we vehemently opposed this proposed criminalization of kindness. The societal emotions that this proposed new law evoked in the city of Fresno at this public meeting was outstanding and at the same time reverberated

like a clanging bong. This is what happens when love is attacked. Dozens upon dozens of community residents angrily came to City Hall to express their disdain for this apparent sneaky attack on the homeless as well as to show their support for their fundamental American freedom of personal generosity. If passed, this horrible ordinance would have imposed fines for any driver who “gives or relinquishes” “any item of property to a pedestrian” “within 200 yards of a signalized intersection.” What a cruel edict from a city which has “In God We Trust” permanently spectacled in its City Hall meeting chambers! How can I trust in God but not help those in need? I’m confused. And I’m not the only one. This outrage was felt way beyond the Fresno borders and caught the attention of greater California. “Shameful.” “Disgusting.” These are only a few of the sentiments I heard while sitting in the lobby waiting to be allowed in the chambers for the meeting to begin. I met an older woman, Irene, from San Luis Obispo, who was so completely flabbergasted and disturbed with the audacity of such a heartless City Council to propose such a heartless law, that she made sure to make the long trek across the valley just to be certain to have her voice heard at the meeting. “Shame on Fresno,” she kept telling me. And that’s exactly what she told the council as she addressed them during her public comment, too. Irene resonates with the hardship and plight of the homeless and explained how her city was taking proactive steps to help their homeless while Fresno was taking reactive measures to criminalize them and the people who want to help them. “There’s something about helping ‘the least of these,’”she shared with contagious emotion in her voice. And, she’s not alone - there are countless more across the city and state who see a reflection of their own humanity in the homeless and who feel the special radiance of brotherly love and goodwill in every “unlawful transfer” that happens. Hey, what can we say - if “unlawful transfers” are wrong here in Fresno, then we

| FEATURED | DINING | CALENDAR | MUSIC | CLASSIFIEDS |

don’t ever want to be right. Councilmembers Brandau (District 2), Chavez (District 5), and Caprioglio (District 4) were the sponsors of this stupid law, and they stressed how they personally have seen or heard about “close calls” of vehicular accidents almost caused by street-side donations. Towards the end of the public comment time, I stepped forward and addressed the councilmembers at the podium about the crucial lack of traffic data to support their theory of street-side donation traffic accidents - I told them that their reasoning for passing a law to make “unlawful transfers” even a thing is probably based on some faulty availability heuristic at best. In fact, just a few moments before, Fresno PD’s Chief Dyer addressed the council and told them that, not only was there no data to support the assertion that “unlawful transfers” are a citywide traffic safety concern, but that even if the proposed ordinance were passed, the reality is that it wouldn’t really be enforced at all - but not only that, Chief also warned that the negative externalities associated with such an ordinance could potentially damage the relationship between the community and the police. And he’s right. I don’t know about you, but if I suddenly became an outlaw for giving a hungry, homeless guy a burger or a bottle of water, or for providing a few bucks to a guy on the street corner just trying to raise money for his young daughter’s funeral, I’m not going to trust a cop. I’m going to be too worried about a crazy undercover homeless sting. Turns out that “unlawful transfers” aren’t even unlawful at all and the homeless are not the problem. Instead, what is unlawful is a system designed to criminalize the poor and needy at their lowest. What is the problem here in Fresno is a system that seeks to punish goodhearted, generous residents who only want to help out ‚“the least of these.” It’s a good thing that this shamefully embarrassing law was killed. This is not who we are.

By I. smiley G. Calderón | smileygcalderon@gmail.com

I

had the pleasure of sitting down with Jaguar Bennet, “Fresno’s most offensive comedian,” at Revue Coffee Bar in the Tower District this past week for a post-production chat about his well-received “Jaguar Saves America” Rogue Festival performances this past March 1-9. I had seen his Thursday night show – my first Rogue experience. The show was a real treat. Jaguar, a polished performer who touches on difficult subjects like politics, is a shock comedian who loves to be hated. And he understands the real problem in America: the “Average American” – someone who he has carefully and jokingly identified as a White woman, age 52, with a Bachelor’s degree, making some $45K a year (and, incidentally, who is also on her “45th husband”) – you know, your everyday neighborhood friend “from Visalia”: Karen. And although this “Karen” seems benign enough on the outside, Jaguar carefully describes how scary and influential she really is in American politics. “A joke is only funny if you can tell the truth,” Jaguar tells me as we sip our coffee outside, wind gently blowing against our faces. And it’s no secret that current American politics is a polemic mess. Of course, he acknowledges that the Right Wing has a serious problem right now across America in the era of Trump, and his message to Conservatives is simple: “Clean up your act.” But Jaguar also sees the danger brewing in the Left in their apparent quest to censor and silence all opposing voices and viewpoints. “Bad ideas only fester in dark corners – when you try to push them underground.” Jaguar reminds me: “Tell the truth about both sides.” He tells me that the real work in politics needs to be done at the community level in the neighborhood in which we live. He explains how America has a lot of self-inflicted wounds with tension between the intentions of the rich and the poor, but its only hope is in its people – in democracy. “I don’t think this country is democratic enough,” he challenges. “People don’t vote.” And he’s right: only about half of the people who are eligible to vote actually exercise this crucial American privilege and right. Even All-American, Central Valley “Karen” has issues when it comes to voting. According to Jaguar, she’s the kind who will vote Democrat when she feels financially threatened, Republican when she feels culturally threatened, but won’t even take a step inside a voting booth when she doesn’t feel personally threatened at all. So much for democracy, right! But this is why Jaguar is so passionate about education and civic engagement here in the Central Valley. (And, with a name like Jaguar, it’s hard not to get passionate!) Born and raised here in Fresno County, there is no other place he’d rather be – a special place where, if you want it, you got to go out and build it yourself. A place where you lift yourself up by your own bootstraps – a real “Do it Yourself ” special kind of place. The Central Valley is a site of active creation and renovation – something that Jaguar admires. He sees Fresno as a kind of “fixer-upper” kind of place with an ever-growing and vital entrepreneurial spirit. Now, if only we can get Fresnans out to vote… | FRESNOFLYER.COM |
