Bernardino. The awards are presented in partnership with Inland Center, Arrowhead United Way’s Volunteers United program and Inland Empire United Way’s Volunteer Initiative, Hands On Inland Empire, to recognize area high school students who log more than 25 hours of volunteer work with area nonprofit groups over the course of the school year. And for Rialto High, who was up against nine other area high schools, the total hours logged is definitely something they can boast about. About 200 RHS 9th, 11th and 12th grade students involved in the school’s AVID program logged more than 10,861 community service hours over the course of the year, earning the school the sought after award. “We now have something to defend and hopefully students are more motivated to volunteer,” RHS AVID Coordinator Patrick Kimmons said proudly. “It’s nice to see our name on this trophy.” “This just shows the students that
hard work does pay off and community service comes with rewards,” said Kimmons. “They may not see the rewards right away, but with a program like this, it encourages them to do more.” Also taking home the program’s prestigious “Top Dawg” award was Brooke Vigil of Redlands East Valley High School for volunteering 483 service hours. More than 500 people were in attendance for the event including local dignitaries who presented students that completed over 250 volunteer hours with a certificate of recognition for their efforts. “It really is a community involved celebration,” said Terri Relf, senior marketing manager at Inland Center Mall, about the teen awards. “It’s a moment where the kids get cheered on for helping make a difference.” The program began 21 years ago with the idea to encourage high school students to volunteer, Relf said. From a starting group of 35 teen volunteers recognized at the inaugural ceremony in 1993, to the 976 students awarded during the May
8 ceremony, the annual teen awards have developed into a much anticipated event for the young community oriented. “...This program has helped thousands of high school students recognize the value of volunteering and helps them to become better students and community leaders.” said, in a news release. “We are so proud to be recognizing all the wonderful students who give so much of their time to these worthwhile causes….they are all to be commended and applauded.” A total of 53,982 hours of service were volunteered by the 976 high school students from 10 area schools over the past year. All students with 25 hours or more were recognized with awards and received a goodie bag filled with items donated by Arrowhead United Way, Inland Empire United Way and Inland Center stores.

hours, but there was no fret that they would go unused. “An extra pair of shoes makes a big difference to a family in need,” said Angela Brantley, senior coordinator of student welfare and attendance at RUSD. “Everything helps.” For students like five-year-old Leilani Simes, the new shoes were a pre-birthday gift. “I’m wearing them on my birthday May 16,” said Lelani. “I’m wearing them all summer, too.” Rialto Unified received a total of 4,032 pairs of Skechers BOBS ranging in toddler sizes to size 8 in adults benefiting students at 19 elementary schools as well as some middle schools.
Unified and San Bernardino City Unified--who received a new pair of shoes as part of a donation from Santa Claus Inc. The San Bernardino-based nonprofit provided 27,000 new pairs of Skechers BOBS shoes in total for the four districts. It was part of a distribution through K.I.D.S. (Kids In Distress Situations) to the nonprofit, which then delivered the shoes to the local school districts. In Rialto, the special summer shoe delivery on May 2 had a group of Preston Elementary kindergarteners anxious to slip into their new kicks, but they all made it clear, that they couldn’t wear them to school. “You can get a thorn inside and hurt your feet,” said six-year-old Itzel Reynosa about the shoes.

Words to think about: The Value of Gold Local author launches
By G. W. Abersold Ph.D
n one of her novels, Dana Stabenow gives a detailed analysis of number 79 on the periodic table. AU. Considered by many to be the most valued and prized of metals. It is more commonly known as “gold.” It became popular in the late 1800’s when gold was found in many places from Alaska down through California. The “gold rush” brought thousands of wouldbe-miners to the West Coast. Its history goes back 3000 years to ancient Egypt. After that every nation of dominance made gold their metal of choice for coins of high value. The aureus, the solidus, the ducat, the guilder, the sovereign, the double eagle, the krugerand. The use of gold was common among the Greeks, the Romans, the Aztecs, Mayas and the Incas. Gold is a soft metal and an ounce of it can be beaten into a sheet large enough to cover the roof of a small home. It doesn’t corrode, making it ideal for jewelry. It is tasteless and an excellent conductor of heat and electricity. Gold is rare, second only to mercury. Panning for gold is a favorite pastime for many, including Stella and myself. We got enough gold out of the Chena River in Alaska and Dawson City, Canada for two lockets of medium size. Gold is yellow, Ruby is red, Emeralds are green, Sapphires are blue, Pearls are white, Opals are black, Diamonds are transparent and Onyx is alternating colors. Next to gold, my favorites are diamonds, which are often smuggled in clear water; and pearls. At the center of every pearl is a grain of sand that is covered with a secretion in the oyster, thereby cre-
ating a pearl. As of today, gold is selling at $1313.30 per troy ounce on the market. The possession of gold has seduced many a person with its siren’s song. From Midas to the inhabitants at Sutter’s Creek. For my purposes I see gold as a metaphor. Projecting its physical and materialistic characteristics or to spiritual and philosophical values. For instance there is an intrinsic value to gold. Nothing has to be added to make it valuable. It doesn’t have to be cut-like diamondsto enhance its worth. Gold’s multiple uses increase its worth. For jewelry; for a conduit of electricity; for a cover-for example the gold roof of the Mosque of Omar in Jerusalem. Perhaps its most important use is as a measure of a person’s wealth. This has been true from antiquity. What does gold have in common with us? The value of we humans is similar to gold. Our value is intrinsicwith each one. Often various ethnic groups have minimized the value of others, determining their values by the color of the skin. But as people have become more educated, this observation has been put aside. Consider Einstein who was Jewish, consider Marconi, who was Italian, consider George Washington Carver, who was black, consider Braun, who was German, consider Pasteur who was French, and consider Edison who was American. As the uses of gold is varied, so is the potential of humans. Philosophers, scientists, explorers, teachers, religionists, inventors, miners, housewives, writers. The uses of gold are myriad. So are we humans. The metaphorical meaning of gold and mankind is similar in another way. To get maximum usage
both must be cultivated. Gold must be mined or panned. Left to its natural state, its value is limited. Without education, so are we humans. Another metaphorical usage of gold and humans is their misuse. All humans do not behave for their own good or for the good of humanity. The misuse of gold (money) is well known. The Bible says, “The love of money (gold) is the root of all evil. (I Timothy 6:10) This also implies the use of money. King Midas is popularly remembered in Greek mythology for his ability to turn everything he touched into gold. Thus, the phrase “the Midas touch.” King Midas was rewarded by the god Dionysus. Everything he touched was turned to gold. Midas was pleased at first until when he touched food and drink, they turned to gold. He loathed the gift. Another myth account has Midas’ daughter turning into a golden statue when he touched her. The demise of King Midas was not unexpected. A few years ago, J. Paul Getty, one of the richest men on earth at that time, had his grandson held for ransom. His ear was sent to Getty as a token of their seriousness. Getty’s response was unbelievable. He refused to pay and said, “We were never very close.” Warren Buffett and Donald Trump reflect the two basic approaches to the use of money. From what we know of them, Trump uses his money to get more money and for his own personal greed. Buffet uses his billions to benefit others, particularly the needy. The same goes for Bill Gates. Our world is better because of the Warren Buffetts. Amen. Selah. So be it.

Paakuma’ K-8 school groundbreaking marks end of successful campus building program for San Bernardino City Unified
T
School named after historic American Indian leader and namesake of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians
he San Bernardino City Unified School District will break ground on its 15th and final new campus on May 16, capping an aggressive construction campaign that started in 2004. Paakuma’ K–8 School, named for San Manuel Band of Mission Indians’ revered leader Santos Manuel, will break ground at 10 a.m. on May 16 at the campus, located at 17875 Sycamore Creek Loop Parkway near Devore. The public is invited to the groundbreaking ceremony, which will feature a blessing and bird songs by San Manuel Tribal Member and Santos Manuel’s great-greatgrandson Paakuma’ Tawinat and Kim Marcus, member of the Santa Rosa Band of Cahuilla Indians. Chairwoman Lynn Valbuena, great-great-granddaughter of Santos Manuel, will also speak during the ceremony. Paakuma’ is the Serrano Indian name of Santos Manuel, leader of the Yuhaviatam Clan of Serrano
Indians and namesake of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, who is remembered as a community builder and as a person who, following years of turmoil, established a forward-looking relationship with the people of the San Bernardino Valley. He was known for his generosity, caring not only for his fellow tribal members, but also travelers who stayed on the reservation for ceremonies, celebrations or to work on the fruit groves in the San Bernardino valley. When it opens in the 2015–16 school year, the school will serve as many as 1,088 students in kindergarten through eighth grade. Thirty-nine classrooms will span 18 acres adjacent to the Rosena Ranch housing development off Interstate 15. The school’s $25 million price tag is being paid through a 50/50 match between the District and the state. Since the District’s facilities capital improvement program began in 2004, 15 new campuses have
been built or are in the midst of construction, said Assistant Superintendent John Peukert, who oversees the District’s Facilities/Operations Division. The construction campaign cost in excess of $1 billion and will add 15,000 new classroom seats. “This has been a remarkable school construction campaign not only for San Bernardino but for all of California,” Peukert said. “Our guiding principle through the years has always been to create the best learning environment for the students of the San Bernardino City Unified School District.” For more information about or to RSVP for the Paakuma’ K–8 School groundbreaking ceremony, please call the District’s Communications/Community Relations Department at (909) 381-1250. The groundbreaking ceremony was originally scheduled for December 20, 2013, but it was postponed due to inclement weather.

Gloria’s Corner
George E. Brown:
I am very pleased to join a united community in support of the George E. Brown Jr. (Congress-man, 1962-71; '73-'99) archives at the University of California, Riverside. Many people who respect the life and legacy of the late Congressman continue their efforts to preserve and make publicly available the archives of the visionary Congressman, a world class leader and one of the best ever from California who dedicated his life and public service to the cause of equal justice under the law. George Brown played a key role in the passage of the landmark 1964 Civil Rights Act, whose 50th anniversary we celebrate this year. He committed his entire career in public service to the cause of civil rights, from the early 1940s, when he helped integrate student housing for the University of California system, protested the interment of Japanese American during World War II, and in the 1960s supported the farm worker movement under Cesar Chavez, to the late 1990s when he moved to end discrimination against LGBT people. As both, a conscientious objector to war and later an Army veteran, he worked to make the justice system accessible for Americans of small means. Locally he pushed for creation of a federal courthouse for the Inland Empire. The reception in his honor and to raise funds for archives is Sunday, May 18th at the Federal Court House in River-
Grand Opening: The Grand Opening for the Children's Assessment Center of San Bernardino County will take place on Wednesday, May 21 from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. The new location of the Center is 700 E. Gilbert Street, San Bernardino. The Center is the project of the Children's Fund, a non-profit whose mission is to prevent child abuse in our community; to ensure that at-risk children who are abused, neglected, impoverished, or abandoned receive adequate food, shelter, clothing, medical care and education; and to provide equal opportunity for social development, for these children. Since it's inception, Children's Fund has served more than 1.3 million children. The Children's Assessment Center treats children ages 0-18 from every area of San Bernardino County. Nearly half of the children seen at the Assessment Center are under the age of 5. Last year the Center treated more than 1,300 children from our communities. This is a very important resource and vital to children who do not have a voice and are victims of abuse.

IECN Endorsement Pete Aguilar for Congress
IECN endorses Pete Aguilar for the 31st Congressional District. He has the knowledge, values and commitment needed to serve the needs of the resident of the district. While the other candidates in the race are nice people, we as voters have to look at the experience and long-term involvement in order to get the best representative for the area. Pete's municipal experience with budgets, planning, and management of a city are excellent. Also his work with regional entities has garnered him the support of other elected officials in the area. The decision is clear - vote for Pete Aguilar for Congress.

Will history repeat itself?
Will Democrats never learn is the question I keep asking myself, surely by now after losing elections in districts leaning toward a democrat, one would think that the party would have some discipline in place to prevent so many democrats running for the same office and splitting the vote. For example in the 2012 election in the 31st Congressional District, Pete Aguilar ran a very strong race and most agreed that he would make it to the primary against an un-named republican opponent. However due to change in the election law the two top vote getting candidates would be eligible for the general regardless of party affiliation. Due to a
massive influx of money for the two republican candidates and four democrats splitting the democratic vote, two republicans made it to the primary and a republican won the seat.
Now in 2014 due to the resignation of the republican congressman the seat is open again. Once more the field is crowded - two republicans and four democrats. Will history repeat itself? I hope not.

ver 1,300 children last year were victims of child abuse and nearly half of those children were under the age of 5. These astonishing statistics were provided by the County of San Bernardino, and the numbers could be even higher. The numbers reflect how many children between the ages of infancy to 18 were treated at the county’s Children’s Assessment Center (CAC) last year, up from 900 two years ago. The CAC will be moving to a new, larger location in San Bernardino to better serve the community. Children’s Fund President’s Circle is hosting the grand opening next Wednesday, May 21 from 5:30 – 7:30 p.m. and the public is invited to attend. The new location is 700 E. Gilbert Street. According to Blanco a larger facility was necessary due to the in-

crease in suspected victims of child abuse, not because of the increase in incidents, but more people are aware of such a facility and more are stepping forward. The new facility will boast three medical rooms as opposed to the single one at the old facility, and there will be four interview rooms with one-way glass for law enforcement officials to sit in observation. Across the nation there are only less than 300 trained pediatricians with forensic certification, and two of them are at the CAC. “We are very lucky to have them, they know what to look for,” Blanco explained. “If a child comes in with a broken arm the pediatrician will know how to look for signs to determine whether it was due to abuse or accident.” The CAC will also be offering support to young adults who find themselves pregnant, and lack parenting know-how, such as the fact that shaking a baby can and will
damage the brain. According to Blanco, some of the abuse happening to youngsters are committed inadvertently by inexperienced, young parents. “The CAC will provide therapy and training to young adults so we can get ahead of the curve,” Blanco said. Some of the featured speakers at Wednesday’s grand opening include county supervisors Janice Rutherford, James Ramos and Gary Ovitt, County District Attorney Mike Ramos, County Sheriff John McMahon and Children’s Fund cofounder and former San Bernardino City Mayor Pat Morris. Tours will include medical exam rooms, interview and observation rooms, children’s kitchen and playroom, therapy rooms and the garden area. A dedication and a special announcement will be made during the presentation.

Carter Aquatics finishes successful season at CIF-SS Championships, wins first trophy in eight years
D
BY Antony Victoria
espite not owning a pool, the Carter High School swimming program has managed to send a nine swimmers to the CIF Southern Section Division 4 Swimming and Diving Championships in Riverside this week. The program also won their first trophy in eight years when they finished second in the Summit Spring Swim Invitational on April 12. And they have done it with class. They have broken 11 school records in the process in both the girls and boys circuits. Notably, senior Austin Edwards broke his personal and school record time against Pacific last month in the 500 Freestyle finishing with the time of 6:01.21 (previous best time: 6:44). In last week’s San Andreas League finals, they had four champions: two in the free relay and two in the individual medley. This is despite most of the swimmers coming into the program with no prior experience. Rialto Unified School District substitute teacher Nathan Harding has been put in charge of all Carter Aquatics, meaning he oversees both Water Polo and Swim teams. He believes he can mold his programs into a perennial contender in the

Inland Empire. “Since I’ve been coaching, I’ve probably had only four or five kids that have prior swimming backgrounds,” he said. “That’s the task I have at hand. I have to teach these kids the basics and then when they get to the junior-senior level, I can begin to expose them to the essentials. This is one of the reasons I want to start a competitive swim club so that kids can enter Eisenhower or Carter and
have at least a year or two of swimming experience. That would put this area so much further in being competitive with everyone else.” The difficulty of having to practice and host matches at a different school provides no hinderance to the Carter High School Aquatics program. In fact, Harding stated that holding practices at city rivals Eisenhower has been a positive experience.
“The coaches here have been very helpful,” said the 27-year-old Rialto Unified School District substitute teacher. “Astin Sparks has been a cool guy. If he wasn’t as helpful as he we wouldn’t have had this much success.” The team will be moving into the tougher Division 1 next season, jumping ship from the San Andreas into the Citrus Belt League. Harding believes the challenge of qualifying for CIF will be more
derson gave a presentation to youth basketball coaches at the Carl Johnson center on the importance of being a role model and teacher to youth. “Just so that you guys know,” Anderson said. “It starts with you guys. It’s important that we’re on the same page and that basically means that we’re all here for the kids.” In five years at Rialto, Anderson led the Knights to five league titles, a 123-21 record. He also won a CIF-SS title in 2011, finishing runner-up for the state title that same season. Anderson coached at the Johnson center for seven of his fifteen year coaching career. He was partly responsible for the repainting of the surfaces outside, replacing the backboards, and for the installation of a new floor inside
the gymnasium at the center. One of the biggest challenges of coaching at both the youth and high school levels according to Anderson, is dealing with the parents of players. He said it's critical that coaches lead by example and double as both an instructor and mentor. “What you teach these kids is probably going to follow them through their high school and possibly college careers,” he said. “For me it basically paved the way to have a superior career as a coach in the Inland Empire. Winning games here made it easy for me at the high school level to become a successful coach.” Ron Fleming, who serves as an assistant on Anderson’s coaching staff at Arroyo Valley, said he makes sure he is always involved
with youth or prep basketball because he knows the greater importance. “I’m always here, whether it’s as a referee or simply watching a game,” he said. “I am trying to make sure that our kids are being taken care of. As a coach we have a greater influence over a great amount of kids, teachers, and even parents. It’s not hard to behind somebody that’s doing something for our children.” Anderson said what he enjoys
difficult, but believes his returning swimmers have the determination to see out the challenge. “It’s a pretty steep goal to try to make CIF in Division 1. It’s going to take a lot of hard work and sacrifice, but it’s not impossible,” he said. “We’re trying to build this program up.” Junior swimmer Kailey Tometich said moving up divisions is a big step up and can be intimidating to some. However she thinks her teammates should ultimately swim for the enjoyment. “I swim because I love the sport,” she said. “It’s great that we compete, but when it comes down to it, we swim because we enjoy it.” Tometich also expressed the team’s appreciation for Harding’s “high spirit”. “We have confidence in him because he’s always been here for us,” she said. “He’s been there for us emotionally always pushing us to improve and physically. Sometimes the kids don’t enjoy it but they know that it is what’s best for their success.” “People put a lot on me but I think the kids are out here doing the work,” Harding said. “I’ve been blessed with some naturally gifted athletes, natural swimmers.”

ialto resident Michael Anderson has been influential to the success of the city’s youth basketball league for many years. Many of the coaches at the league have begun to emulate the Arroyo Valley varsity girls basketball head coach’s style. In recent years Anderson has been successful in ensuring his players receive both accolades on and off the court. “A lot of kids don’t understand that college is a way out,” Anderson said. “Growing up around gangs was bad and I hate to see kids get into that. For me to me to pass on my teachings is a blessing.” On Saturday May 4, coach An-

most about his coaching experience is speaking to the community and hearing their success stories on the court and in the classroom. “This is important for me because my family lives in the community,” he said. “For some people its a dead end, but it don’t have to be. It’s what you want it to be, it’s what you make of it. To be able to be successful and share successful stories and being in the place they are now is motivational to me. It’s all about giving back.”

Forum provides SBVC students with outlook on California’s 31st congressional district candidates
T
BY Anthony Victoria
he forum held at San Bernardino Valley College on Thursday May 8 featured candidates from the California’s 31st congressional district receiving questions from students regarding the newly-implemented Affordable Care Act (ACA), benefits for military veterans, prison overcrowding, and tuition to name a few. All but one of the candidates, San Bernardino City Unified School District board member Danny Tillman (Dem.), were present at the event. Democrat Joe Baca Sr. of Rialto left early due to other arrangements. The candidates had the privilege of introducing themselves. They provided brief background on their careers and lives and explained why they aspire to win the congressional seat. City of Redlands Mayor Pete Aguilar (Dem.), 34, the father of two children and small business owner grew up in the city of San Bernardino. He said that he understands the difficulty that the city is dealing with. Aguilar said he chose to run because he believes congress is failing the middle class. “We see unemployment rising, we see families struggling to put food on the table, and we have difficulties in our communities and we just don’t see congress providing solutions,” he said. “I want to make sure that every Inland Empire resident has the same opportunity to climb into the middle class and realize the American Dream. That’s what we need.” As mayor, Aguilar said he’s addressed several issues by creating jobs, supported small business growth, invested in infrastructure, implemented a gun buyback program that removed 300 guns and ten assault rifles in Redlands, and has passed a climate action plan that has reduced pollution. “We can accomplish so much by working together,” Aguilar said. “Congressman Miller’s retirement offers us a tremendous opportunity for a fresh start. It’s an opportunity to elect a leader who will fight for the middle class, stand up for working families, support our students, create jobs, honor our veterans, and take care of our seniors.” Baca Sr. (Dem.), despite leaving early, wanted to make it clear to everyone in attendance that the big difference between himself and the other candidates is that he is a veteran having already served in the U.S. House of Representatives from 2003 to 2013. For someone in congress, you want someone with experience,” he said. “That makes a big difference in dealing with a lot of the issues.” Ryan Downing (Rep.), 25, of Whittier is the youngest of all the candidates. He is running because he said politicians are failing the people. Downing said his experience in canvassing the San Bernardino area has provided that motivation to want to serve the people of the 31st congressional district. “I could use my skills to work for my people,” he said. “A congressman is supposed to be a civil servant. No more than a common fire chief or city police officer.” Compared to the average 25-

year-old, Downing said he has the maturity to be a civil servant. “Our government has failed us and deceived us, but if we start to put the right people in office, we can provide change and it all starts with the people. Ryan Downing isn’t doing anything special, it’s the young people who stand up.” Eloise Gomez Reyes (Dem.) grew up in the area and began picking onions from the fields before school at the age of 12, along with her other siblings. As a teenager she started a drill team, the Smiling Faces of Colton that performed in parades all over the Inland Empire. She moved on to graduate from San Bernardino Valley College, the University of Southern California, and Loyola Law School. Gomez Reyes Today works as an Attorney and if elected, strives to guarantee equal pay for women, improve public schools, and create more jobs. “I’ve worked hard all my life and I appreciate the hard work that other people put forth,” she said. “That’s very important to who I am and why I am doing what I am doing because people are struggling. I think we need to do more to try to find jobs and engage youth. These are the things that corporations can and should do.” Paul Chabot (Rep.) served in Iraq and obtained the rank of LT Commander working with all the military services and later served in law enforcement. As a small business owner, he aims to reduce taxes and provide more services to military veterans. Leslie Gooch (Rep.) served as a Senior Policy director under Congressman Gary Miller. According to her biography on the voter information guide she has crafted and advocated for fiscal measures that promote economic growth and led initiatives that stabilized the housing market in the Inland Empire. In the question and answer portion of the event, students in attendance asked candidates questions regarding any topic of their choosing. A member of student organization “All of us or None” asked the candidates a question regarding incarceration rates in San Bernardino County. “Here in San Bernardino County we have the highest rates of incarceration per capita in the state of California,” the student said. “If
elected, what policies can you see enacted to better serve this population and their families?” “I did not come across folks that were there for minor crimes. When you look at our state prison system, we have some violent people there,” said Chabot. “That being said, I completely believe in redemption. People can change.” “Talking about second chances, we absolutely have to provide second chances,” said Gomez Reyes. “People make mistakes. If we
throw the key out, then we’re done. We need to invest in education not in prisons, that’s number one. I work with legal aid to try to expunge criminal records. Those are the sorts of things we need to do to help people get the jobs.” “In recent decades the explosive cost of health care have financially crippled millions of American families,” said Tim Forrest, VicePresident of the Associated Student Government (ASG) at SBVC. “What cost-cutting measures will
you advocate for when you assume office?” “The thing I’m concerned about with ACA is that it’s almost taken us back a few steps where we have needed to be,” said Gooch. “Now that we have ACA it’s no longer affordable for people. They need to choose a health plan that they can afford.” The forum came to fruition because of the influence of the student body said Legislative Affairs Director Omar Castro. “I pitched this idea out to ASG and they thought it was a great idea,” said Castro. “It’s a critical time in the Inland Empire and I’m glad students were able to hear from all the candidates. Now they have the opportunity to vote for whomever they please.” Rachel Kanakaole, a Justice in ASG and a member of community group San Bernardino Generation Now, said hearing the candidates respond to questions from students pushes her to do more research. “I think they responded well, but I want to make sure what they say is actually true,” she said. “I have to do the research to see which candidate is best suited for the position.”

Girls from local high schools helped model the latest spring fashion from Le Roy’s Shoes & Clothing during the Big Hearts for Little Hearts fashion show May 7 to benefit the Loma Linda Children’s Hospital.
ozens gathered in support of the Big Hearts for Little Hearts Loma Linda Guild’s first-ever fashion show held at the Centennial Complex at Loma Linda University Health last week in support of the Loma Linda Children’s Hospital. The inaugural event--Carolyn’s Closet: An Evening of Fashion and Music--brought mother and daughter duos to arrive stylish to check out some of the latest trends and had men donning crisp suits all in the name of fashion. Students from local high schools as well as LLUCH patients modeled fashions from Le Roy’s Shoes & Clothing and women from the Inland Empire-area modeled designs from Chico’s. But the fashion show was more than just a focus on clothes. It was an opportunity to acquaint the community with the hospital and its teenage patients, as well as raise funds for some much needed items in the hospital’s pediatric emergency department. Proceeds from the event will go toward the purchase of a fetal monitor and the addition of rocking chairs to the department. The chairs will hopefully serve as a compassionate factor for parents in an aim to rock their child in comfort, said Leigh Anderson, event coordinator for the event. The fashion show idea stemmed from wanting to try something different and new to reach families in the Inland Empire, Anderson said. The hospital periodically has fundraisers that encompass other walks in the community, she added. “This is for the parents of those children in the hospital. It’s for the teenagers and their moms. For the community, it was a chance to see what’s going on in the fashion world and support a place where so many medical miracles happen.” In an addition to the fashion show, members of the Loma Linda Brass Quintet and the Redlands East Valley Singers were also on hand to perform throughout the evening. Hospital officials said they hope to have the monitors and rocking chairs added to the emergency room by the end of the year.

Redlands celebrates “Give BIG” with Broadway Block Party By Yazmin Alvarez
freebees as a “thank you.” “What we did was took one of our Broadway Block Party shows and gathered nonprofits from our region to celebrate “Give BIG” and promote the idea that people can give during this big campaign,” said Valerie Peister, who runs community programming for the Redlands Bowl. The Broadway-style musical event also showcased the talents of professional and elementary school singers, performing stage hits like “Dreamgirls” and students from Mariposa Elementary School’s chorus and members of the Redlands High School cast of “Oklahoma” also hit the stage of the Lincoln Shrine. Participating organizations included, Boys and Girls Club of Greater Redlands-Riverside, Crafton Hills College Foundation, Family Service Association of Redlands, Girl Scouts of San Gorgonio, Historical Glass Museum Foundation, Redlands Art Association, San Bernardino County Museum Association, The Wildlands Conservancy, KVCR, Arts Connection, Yucaipa Animal Placement Society (YAPS), KVCR, Boy Scouts of America - California Inland Empire Council, City of Redlands Recreation, Inland Temporary Homes and Micah House.
an Bernardino County gave big last week--more than $500,000 worth. Partnering up with the Community Foundation for its “Give BIG” campaign, about 2,500 unique donors gave 3,500 donations to 262 local nonprofits, according to a San Bernardino County press release. From 7 a.m. on May 8 to 6:59 p.m. on May 9, supporters of San Bernardino County nonprofits went online, connected with causes they cared about and made donations. "I want to thank each and everyone of the 2,500 donors that logged on and made a difference in our community. Nonprofits play a vital role in improving the quality of life and environment for our residents. I'm so very proud of the support shown from the community," said 5th District Supervisor Josie Gonzales in a news release. While efforts to support local charities came through the 24-hour fundraising blitz, several organizations partnered up and took to public places in hopes of gathering attention for their cause. As was the case for the Redlands Community Music Association, who brought crowds to Smiley Park Friday afternoon for their Broadway Block Party and GiveBig Kick-Off.

Mathewson, Padilla help San Gorgonio rebounds to beat Carter Kaiser clinch Sunkist League

dominant pitching staff and high powered offense had made sure no team has come close to beating Kaiser in Sunkist League this season. Kaiser (22-1, 13-0 League) ace Chris Mathewson was in vintage form, holding the Grand Terrace offense scoreless as he has many offenses this season, striking out 12 in the process. What came as a surprise was Grand Terrace (12-10-1, 7-5-1) starter Albert Valdez matching zeros with him for six innings. This time, it wasn’t a home run, or even an extra base hit that sparked the Kaiser offense, instead it was a timely bunt single by Ray Padilla to lead off the top of the seventh and manufactured a hard fought 3-0 win over Grand Terrace. “All these seniors know how to bunt,” said Kaiser Head Coach Michael Spinuzzi. “They have been with me for four years, Ray
saw an opportunity, that was all Ray Padilla.” Padilla found himself in a pickle and was nearly thrown out in between first and second after a missed bunt attempt by Daniel Huizar, but the Titans couldn’t execute on the run down. “We had our bunt play on,” said Grand Terrace head coach Mike Reh. “We get the runner (Padilla) in a rundown, unfortunately for our side, he gets around our first baseman and is safe, that’s the winning run.” Huizar got a bunt down on the next pitch to move Padilla to second. Padilla then stole third and scored on a single by Joe Gonzalez for what would be the gamewinning run. Things unraveled a little bit for the Titans after that as an error and a single by Mathewson led to two more runs. Valdez had limited the Kaiser offense to four hits and two walks before the Padilla bunt single. The win clinched Kaiser’s fourth league title in five years.

12-1 League) had its heart of the lineup coming to the plate. Aguilar battled, inducing a groundball from Marcos Castanon to third baseman Adan Alvarado, who touched his bag but couldn’t throw out Castanon at first. Still having the tying and goahead runs on base and cleanup hitter Jose Gonzalez batting, Lujan made a costly base running mistake at second. Aguilar caught Lujan leaning too far from the bag and threw a pickoff to second, resulting in a run down and after a few back-andforth throws, the Titans tagged him out for the second out. Aguilar proceeded to strike out Gonzalez on three-straight pitches and punctuate a strong performance. “We were playing for pride,” said
Eatinger. “They’re going to win league unless something reckless happens, but we want to end our season on a positive note and get a good draw in the playoffs.” The Spartans got on the board in the bottom of the fourth, scoring two runs off Lions starter John Landazuri. Two walks and a hit-by-pitch loaded the bases with one out for San Gorgonio (19-3, 11-2). Landazuri issued another walk to Alvarado to bring in the first run and Jason Atilano added an RBI single to bring in the second run and end Landazuri’s day. Carter answered in the top of the fifth when an RBI single from Castanon scored Ryan Maestas, who had singled and stolen two bases to lead off the inning.
day after losing to Rialto Carter 2-1 despite pitcher Hazahel Quijada tossing a no-hitter, San Gorgonio got another strong performance from Rainier Aguilar to edge its rival 21. Aguilar, typically a catcher and making just his second start of the season, went the distance for the Spartans, striking out 13 and hand the Lions their first loss in San Andreas League action this season. “He didn’t have his first start of the year until last week,” said San Gorgonio Head Coach Bill Eatinger. “He is so valuable behind the plate, but we rolled the dice and gave him a start last week, because he can help us in the playoffs, and he threw a no-hitter.” It didn’t come easy, as Chris Lujan earned a lead-off walk to start the top of the seventh. Adam Lovell followed with a sacrifice bunt that was fielded cleanly by PHOTO/RICHARD DAWSON Aguilar, but his throw to second ended up in center field to put two on with no outs and Carter (18-5, Carter's Ryan Maestas beats a throw to steal third base.

Ken Hubbs Awards 50th Anniversary called biggest of all
BY Harvey M. Kahn
ormer National Football League linebacker and 1997 Ken Hubbs Award winner Ryan Nece addressed the crowd of 400 family and well wishers at the 50th Anniversary of the Hubbs Award at a ceremony Monday in the Colton High School Gym. Nece pointed out that other honors and awards have come and gone but no single award has withstood the test of time like the Hubbs Award. The California Interscholastic Federation has handed out awards for 100 years, the Shriner's have named allstar teams and the defunct Helms Bakery sponsored division allleague teams for 40 years. Nece described the Hubbs Award
B
as one that lasted so long due to the legacy of its namesake and those willing to work to keep it alive. "Ken Hubbs was a professional baseball player but his off the field action are the reason we are here today. He was willing to risk breaking some rules in order to do the right thing," said Nece. He was referring to the habit that Hubbs had of signing autographs in violation of some Chicago Cubs rules. Nece commented that Ken Hubbs always spent time serving youth. Hubbs was baseball's National League Rookie of the Year in 1962 and died in a plane crash at age 22 in 1964. Nece noted that good parents are the one's whose sacrifices make good athletes he said the modernday mother is playing a larger role in the development of athletes. It
was an observation backed by the many mothers who stood up by themselves when their sibling was introduced Monday night. Nece said that was often the case with his mom, Kathy, who was also in the crowd of observers. He said that everyone knows who his father is (Ron Lott), yet in his case it was his mother who was the driving force. Nece told the 48 athletes who attended that in order to excel, one must "do the things that you don't want to do. Are you willing to make that sacrifice." Each athlete in attendance had already been selected as their school's Ken Hubbs Award winner. Uzoma Owuama and Loren Landrus were the overall winners. The Ken Hubbs Foundation is the only private athletic honor awarded in San Bernardino County. Other
my parents I wouldn't be up here talking because I don't feel like it." And "I wouldn't have gone to practice if my mom hadn't made me." And "Wow. This feels like the Grammy's. Hubbs Foundation President Ron Doty told the crowd that the best athlete or those with the best resume don't always win. "There's a lot of character involved in the choice." Keith Hubbs, the brother of Ken Hubbs, told how his brother was able to play football, basketball and juggle baseball and track at the same time at Colton High, being named a two-time prep All-American and 4-time All-CIF performer. Each of the 48 Hubbs individual winners were presented an engraved watch with 50th anniversary on the face.
Loren Landrus of Citrus Valley High named 2014 Girls Ken Hubbs Award winner
BY Harvey M. Kahn
eing a member of three CIF-Southern Section championship soccer teams at Citrus Valley High School, plus winning the 2013 CIF-SS Division 6 player-of-the-year award elevated Loren Landrus to the top of an impressive list of nominees
for the 50th Annual Ken Hubbs Award. For good measure, Landrus ranked No. 1 this season in the Mountain Valley League in four track and field events, where she advanced as a CIF-qualifier in the 400 Meters, 4x400, Long Jump and triple Jump. "This is amazing. I'm grateful to all my coaches. What a good way to go out on my high school ca-
reer," said Landrus. "There were eight of us who were on all three of those CIF championship soccer teams at Citrus Valley and they all had a chance to win this award tonight." With just a few weeks left in high school, Landrus can add still more honors at the CIF track finals. Off the track, Landrus was awarded for her civic contributions

past winners in attendance were Scott Smith, Shaun Battle and Trevor Hoyt. NFL Hall of Fame member Ron Lott and Nece are the only fatherson team to win the Hubbs Award. Other's who progressed to the NFL after winning the Hubbs Award were: Charles Johnson, Mark Collins, Shelton Diggs, and Allen Bradford. Greg Colbrunn, the 1987 winner had a long MLB career and Kyle Kopp was an Olympic water polo coach and player. For most athletes on Monday night, it was their first shot at public speaking. If they had a planned speech, the script was lost the minute they took the podium and looked out at the large crowd. True to their form, the teens were short and brutally honest. "If it wasn't for

loomington High School's Uzoma Owuama didn't just earn the 50th Annual Ken Hubbs Award because he was one of the best wrestler's in California. There were prep athletes with longer resumes. However, it was the accumulation of many of Owuama's qualities that were considered when the Ken Hubbs Foundation Board of Directors selected him over 23 others. In the first tournament that Owuama ever wrestled as a sophomore, he went 5-0, pinned four opponents and allowed only four points to be scored against him. Uzoma is called "Uzo" on the Bloomington campus and was a 4time member of that schools run of five consecutive CIF-Southern Section wrestling championships. Uzo accomplished the difficult task of qualifying twice for the state high school wrestling championship. His biggest accomplish-

ment was winning the nationally
acclaimed DOC Buchanan Tournament where he pinned the defending champion. He placed three times in the Section Master's Tourney and won five area tourney titles, including the respected Temecula Valley Battle for the Bell Championship. In 2014, he was once ranked as the state's number-2 wrestler at 138 pounds. He finished at number-5 among more than 2,000 California high schooler's in that weight class. Bloomington High officials say that it was Uzo's humanitarian efforts away from sports that helped him to the Ken Hubbs Award, affectionately called the "High School Heisman." Bloomington athletic director Chris Brickley said that it was what Uzo did when he thought no one was looking that made him stand out. In a joint comment, Brickley and BHS wrestling coach Gabriel Schaefer said that Uzo took advanced place-
ment classes and helped serve food on both lunch breaks. On weekends, he volunteered to help setup and breakdown stadium equipment in preparation of Pee Wee Football games. "Uzo encouraged teammates to get better, was a great leader with intangible assets. He set a high example both academically and athletically," said school officials. Schaefer said Uzo was often seen coaching younger wrestlers in his "spare time." He said Uzo was an extremely hard worker and seldom missed practice. "Omuama has a bright future ahead of him. His work ethic and charisma make him the type of individual others want to be like or around," observed Schaefer. "He simply represents what is best about being a Bloomington Bruin and what is paramount about being a wrestler." Omuama said afterward that he didn't think he had a chance at the Hubbs Award because nearly all Hubbs Award winners played multiple sports. "I thought I was out of the running. I'm realizing just how important this award is," said Uzo, as five reporters and ten photographers flocked around him. "I'm young and as time goes on I'll know more about this. Ten or 15 years down the line, I'll understand even more about its importance." Omuama will attend Grand Canyon University and wrestle next year on a full scholarship. He will graduate from Bloomington with a class academic rank of 35 among 466 seniors. He has a younger sister at Bloomington. His brothers, Ike and Ifay played football at BHS. Uzo has traveled to his family's Nigeria homeland on numerous occasions, saying it gives him a greater appreciation of life in America.
by Senator Barbara Boxer and from the San Bernardino City Council. Citrus Valley athletic director Boyd Lium said that in each of her four year's at Citrus Valley, Landrus made the Principal's Honor Roll, the California Scholarship Federation, National Honor Society and won the Scholar-Athlete Award. "Our school motto is C.L.A.S.S. which stands for Character, Leadership, Attitude, Scholarship and Service. Loren exhibits exceptional character and leadership as well as an outstanding attitude through her participation in multiple sports on our campus," wrote Liam. "Loren has accepted the responsibility of being chosen as a captain on our soccer and track teams. Her
efforts to lead and earn the respect of her teammates have been acknowledged," said Liam, who added that Landrus will graduate among the top-50 in her senior class and will attend the University of Northern Colorado on a full scholarship. "She is truly a role model for our younger students." Her bio reads that she is the writer/photographer for the Citrus Valley yearbook, was an ASB representative, is a member of the Make A Wish Club, and works parttime at Basic Backflow. Landrus was also named first team soccer All-San Bernardino County and first team All-Area (Inland Empire).

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information.

County Schools Regional Occupational Program celebrates 40th anniversary
I
BY Cynthia Mendoza
n 2014 the Regional Occupational Program (ROP) of the San Bernardino County Superintendent of Schools (County Schools) celebrates its 40th anniversary of equipping students with the skills and training they need to carve out successful futures after high school. Their mission is to help students gain career readiness skills and hands on training and to help them find their passion. In the 1974-75 school year there were 65 students in the program and an average daily attendance of 100, as some students were enrolled in more than one class. At that time the ROP served 10 school districts in the county and
its budget was $158,000. In 2014, the ROP serves 16 districts, plus juvenile court school, has an average daily attendance of 3,980 students and a total enrollment of a little over 17,000 students. While the programs are open to all high school students, priority is given to juniors and seniors. Through their tireless effort in serving students, the ROP has a proven track record of success; according to Kit Alvarez, the ROP administrator for County Schools, 90% of ROP high school seniors graduate from high school, 55% go on to continue their education and 40% go on to enter the workforce. “Our system is good for kids,” Alvarez said. “It helps reduce drop
outs, they explore careers and stay focused on their career path.” Alvarez shared just one story of many that show how the ROP can directly alter the life of young people; there was young man who was bragging to his friends about dropping out of high school but then came across the ROP program. He joined the automotive technology program, found he had a flair for it and went on to pursue a twoyear program after high school. He was the first in his family to graduate form high school and go college. It is this kind of life-impacting success that the ROP is celebrating. The ROP also firmly believes not only in its mission but in the role it plays in improving the quality of life in the Inland Empire through education. They also recognize the high PHOTO COURTESY/ROP value this region places on career and technical education and the The ROP’s 40th an- vital role it plays fostering a better niversary logo design economy by creating productive, was created by ROP taxpaying citizens. student Serenity “We want to keep that legacy Rogers, a senior at going strong,” Alvarez said. “We Apple Valley High help advance students to post secSchool.

Supervisor Gonzales pledged $1 for each Facebook “like” she received before the end of the Give BIG campaign to the nonprofit with the highest number of unique donors.

Both donations will go to the Lighthouse Project Inc. of Big Bear which received donations from 222 individuals. The supervisors will deliver their checks in person to the Lighthouse Project at a later date. “I am so proud of my district for bringing over 130 nonprofits to the table. Lighthouse Project really stepped up under the leadership of Michael Perry,” said Supervisor Ramos. “While I congratulate you
for your hard work, I also challenge you to continue to cultivate new donors to support you in your efforts to create a child honoring community in Big Bear.” “Our local nonprofits and residents really came together and helped make the County’s first Give BIG year a huge success. Lighthouse Project earned every dollar by reaching out and spreading the message, my congratulations to them. I give my deepest thanks and appreciation to the over 2,400 individuals that gave and helped make a real difference in our community,” said Supervisor Gonzales. The Give BIG San Bernardino County web-a-thon raised a total of $582,000 548,214 (including $34,000 in sponsorships) from 2,465 individuals making 3,533 donations to the participating 262 nonprofits throughout our county, exceeding the goal of raising $300,000.
