By Manny Sandoval

he community's overwhelming need and indomitable spirit were unmistakably evident at Ferguson Park on October 19.

Never Stop Grinding Impact, together with Inland Empire Community News, the office of Supervisor Joe Baca Jr., IEHP, and Active Helping Hands, hosted a monumental community food drive.

By 10 AM, a staggering queue of over 200 vehicles lined up along W Casa Grande Dr., underscoring the dire need for such an event.

Residents from Rialto and surrounding communities were present in significant numbers. Remarkably, one individual even drove for an hour, demonstrating the profound impact and reach of the initiative.

Throughout the morning until 1 PM, volunteers and organizers worked relentlessly to distribute thousands of fresh produce, ensuring over 30,000 pounds of food reached those most needed.

Darius Harris, CEO and founder of Never Stop Grinding Impact, reflected on the day's events,

stating, "The incredible turnout today, from Rialto residents to those from neighboring areas, and the unwavering support we've received from our partners, the dedicated volunteers, and the invaluable coverage from community news, encapsulate what we can achieve when we come together."

Underlining the ethos of the effort, Harris proclaimed, "Without unity, there's no community."

While the event was a significant milestone, the commitment to support the community doesn't end. Harris proudly announced another distribution day scheduled for November 30. With the upcoming event on the horizon, the resilience and unity of the Inland Empire community are palpable.

For more details about the next event and ways to get involved, community members are urged to visit https://neverstopgrindingimpact.com/.

In the end, this drive, witnessed by the turnout of Rialto and its surrounding communities, accentuated the physical nourishment provided and the deep-rooted sense of community shared among attendees.

Local Agencies Exceed Regional Annual Water Savings Goal

E

Community News

nsuring a long-term reliable water supply in the State of California depends on a combination of securing new water supplies and making sure our existing resources are used efficiently.

Considering each community is unique in their water uses and effective conservation tools, San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District (San Bernardino Valley) established a groundbreaking Demand Management Incentive Program aimed to work with retail water agencies to promote reducing regional water use while also recognizing that different incentives and tactics may work for one retail water provider but not another.

With goals of maximizing water conservation success and preserving retail agencies’ flexibility to implement their unique program the new incentive program was able to reach new levels of saving water for the future.

"With the overwhelming success of the Demand Management Incentive Program, we are demonstrating that collaboration and proactive water conservation can drive measurable and meaningful results," said Paul Kielhold, Board President at San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District. “Our community rose to the challenge resulting is our ability to distribute $800,000 in incentives across the San Bernardino Valley.”

By effectively reducing the demand on local water supplies, the program aids in preserving existing resources and ensuring a sustainable water future for the region.

The Board of Directors approved a regional goal to save up to 5,000 acre-feet of water through the Demand Management Incentive Program, demonstrating San Bernardino Valley’s commitment to encouraging proactive water conservation efforts.

For perspective, last year’s regional water savings of 5,000 acre-feet would fill 5,000 Olympic sized swimming pools with water.

The program's unique design allows for one financial incentive to be provided to retail water agencies, based on total water saved compared to a 2020 baseline year. This block-style financial support from San Bernardino Valley maintains the autonomy and flexibility of each retailer to offer rebates or water efficiency incentives that are best suited to their customers.

This approach empowers each agency to administer effective water conservation initiatives tailored to the specific watersaving potential of customers within their service area. The Demand Management Incentive Program exceeded expectations in its first year, with over 7,500 acre-feet of water savings, through the participation of six local retail water agencies including:

City of Colton: 2,208 acre-feet, $173,173.37 City of San Bernardino: 1,911 acre-feet, $267,360.07 City of Redlands: 1,183 acrefeet, $164,935.49 City of Rialto: 759 acre-feet, $80,499.69 West Valley Water District: 1,176 acre-feet, $149,066.09 Yucaipa Valley Water District: 335 acre-feet, $59,939.94

Newman was also a pioneer in the establishment of the Dependency Prevention Commission in 1965, which is now known as CAPSBC.

“The Community Action Legacy awards serve as an opportunity to not only recognize amazing individuals and organizations but to also showcase work that is being done in our community, and hopefully shed a light on the continued efforts needed to combat the effects of poverty in our region,” said CEO of CAPSBC, Patricia Nickols-Butler.

CAPSBC’s Board of Directors launched the Community Action Legacy Awards in 2009 to honor individuals and organizations that have supported CAPSBC’s mission and vision by assisting low-income residents of San Bernardino County to achieve self-sufficiency.

The Dr. Margaret Hill Helping People Changing Lives Award recipient is the Way World Outreach, acknowledging the church’s passion for helping others and serving as an example of the difference volunteering can make in a community.

Mistress of Ceremonies for the gala and former California State Senator, Connie Leyva is being recognized with the Legislative Advocate Award for her efforts in advocating on behalf of San Bernardino County residents and her esteemed record of public service, which includes securing $1 million in State Budget Funding to help CAPSBC continue its efforts of combatting the effects of poverty.

place of worship and reflection of who He is. My heart is never to have my voice showcased or for me to be the center of any song. My heart is to bring fun and an energetic spirit to the gospel collectively with others.” There is profound purpose in serving and glorifying the Lord through song. For Jessica, that purpose is to help others to be seen and to experience the freedom that comes through the gospel, the Good News, of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.

You may remember him as Manager/Coach/Assistant Coach for the local Rialto Little League teams. Or, you may have seen him and his children serving in the Worship Arts Ministry at Sunrise Church, where Charles (who was always surrounded by keyboards) and the Praise and Worship Team opened up concerts for Christian artists, CeCe Winans, Israel Houghton, Jeremy Camp, the Katinas, Mary Mary, Salvador, Selah, and Tommy Walker.

Jazz in the Spirit is Back in the IE

azz in the Spirit 2022 at Immanuel Baptist Church in Highland, California was such a great success, they decided to do it again this year! What’s all the excitement about? What is Jazz in the Spirit 2023? It’s a smooth jazz and gospel music outreach concert whose main goal is to unite people from diverse cultural backgrounds for a night of worship, fellowship, and fun!

Doors open at 6:00 pm, Friday, October 27, 2023, and admission is FREE! What a great way to end the week!

You’ll want to get there early because they are expecting a packed house!

Skip Cain and Jessica Lund will lead everyone into worship with their unique gospel singing styles. Skip, known to some as a jazz and blues soul singer and crooner, doesn’t mind doing a little preaching every once in a while, as he’s singing.

Skip says, “The Church brings me joy! Even though I started off as a front man in a teenage garage band singing at various events, I was drawn to sing for the Lord at church. The patience of the Lord has been a blessing to me. A lot of my inspiration comes from my beautiful 91year-old mother who still sings at church every Sunday faithfully. Psalm 100 says: ‘Make a joyful noise unto the Lord...’ That’s where I am. I love to sing praises to the Lord.”

Jessica Lund brings her soul to every gospel and country music song. When she sings there isn’t a dry eye in the building. Jessica says it is “such a blessing to be used by the Lord to bless others and bring them into a

“I started playing at Immanuel Baptist Church because of my long relationship with Bob Barrett. He and I played together at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest for eight years before Bob Barrett became the musical Director over at Immanuel. Soon after, about 11 years ago, Bob called me and asked if I would like to join him at Immanuel, and I have been there ever since,” says renown electric guitar player, Blake Aaron.

Even though Blake has topped the Smooth Jazz charts, has several #1 Billboard singles, and has recorded and/or performed with such musical greats as Philip Bailey, Sheila E., Bobby Womack, Carlos Santana, and many others, Blake still plays his guitar regularly at the Immanuel Baptist Church Sunday morning services. Blake will be sharing his musical genius with you at the Jazz in the Spirit concert. If you close your eyes for just a moment while Blake is playing, you might actually think Jimi Hendrix came back to life as a smooth jazz artist.

You are going to love hearing Blake shred his guitar. And if you’re lucky, he just might come over to you and give you your own private performance.

Last, but not least, is Rialto’s own, Charles A. Kelly, Jr.

When asked how he had learned to play multiple keyboards at a time, Charles credits much of his musical experience to the time he spent in the music studio working with Stevie Wonder and his time on the road as Musical Director touring with Sister Sledge (song: We Are Family). So, with all that experience, why go into music ministry for the Church? Charles says, “I got into Christian music initially because I felt it was a healthy environment to resume my music career while helping out at the church as a volunteer. However, as time went on, I realized that volunteering to play keyboards in the church services was bringing me into a much-needed personal relationship with Christ. As I began to be filled with the Holy Spirit, I soon realized that God has a purpose for me playing Christian music. It had become an integral part of my life, and it still is.

Now, after many years of playing keyboards, Charles, for the first time, has fused his love for Christ with his musical experience in his first album as a solo artist titled, You’re Not Alone. Each song, though instrumental, tells a story about Charles’ personal relationship with either God, his wife, or even himself. Come to the Jazz in the Spirit 2023 concert and let the gospel music and smooth jazz flavors rejuvenate your soul.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF ERNESTINE CHACON Case No. PROVA2300111

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of ERNESTINE CHACON A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Fredrick Chacon in the Superior Court of California, County of SAN BERNARDINO. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Fredrick Chacon be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests the decedent's will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The 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 tak-

ing 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 on Nov. 15, 2023 at 9:00 AM in Dept.

No. F2 located at 17780 ARROW BLVD, FONTANA CA 92335.

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 perrepresentative sonal 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 attorney 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 DE154) 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.

Inland Regional Center's Oct. 28 Fall Festival Highlights Support for Those with Intellectual Disabilities, Autism, Epilepsy and More

F

Joyful moments at the Inland Regional Center's Fall Festival, where attendees of all ages engage in activities, share smiles, and celebrate community inclusivity.

By Manny Sandoval

or the first time in three years, the Fall Festival Cultural Resource Fair is making a grand comeback at the Riverside Convention Center on Oct. 28, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Hosted by the Inland Regional Center (IRC), the largest regional center in Southern California serving over 50,000 clients, this event aims to bridge gaps within underserved communities and highlight the myriad of services available to the public.

The festival, previously on hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic, was a labor of love in its earlier iterations. "Previous years required charging vendors and attendees entrance fees, but this year, thanks to a generous grant, the event is

completely free for guests," said Tanya Sanchez, the event's developer and community outreach specialist.

Designed not only as a showcase of the IRC's diverse range of services for those identifying as intellectually disabled, autism spectrum, cerebral palsy, and epilepsy, the festival will also introduce attendees to partner organizations. Such partners include Pamper My Baby, an organization specializing in identifying developmental needs, and other vendors focused on therapeutic initiatives, public library services, and more. Local entities like Kaiser and Riverside Public Health will also have booths.

"Our goal is not just to showcase our services but to spotlight our vendors' exceptional services," Sanchez continued.

"We have clients from all walks of life

and age groups, and the Fall Festival is the perfect platform to spread the word about the multitude of programs we offer, especially the early intervention services."

Emphasizing diversity, the festival has taken steps to ensure inclusivity by having on-site ASL and Spanish interpreters.

Recognizing disparities in service access among certain groups, Sanchez emphasized, "We must bridge these gaps. We know that our Spanish-speaking and African communities do not seek services at the same rate as other groups.

Thus, inviting organizations that resonate with these communities is vital."

With family at its heart, the festival has a lineup of family-friendly activities, including a costume contest encouraging attendees to don their favorite outfits.

"Our clients love to dress up, and we're eager to see the creativity on display," Sanchez beamed. Attendees can also look forward to performances by a Fontana Folklórico group at 1 p.m., introduced by Dr. Corey Jackson.

In addition to celebrating the region's rich cultural diversity, guests can sign up for the IRC newsletter for a chance to win vendor-donated gift cards and gas cards. Plus, a photo booth will be available for those looking to capture memories of the day.
