What does it take to grow an award-winning daffodil? Gardeners of all ages are invited to join us at the Julian Library and find out! On Saturday, October 24, at 11:00 AM, the Julian Branch Library will host Sally Snipes for a program about Daffodils. Snipes is known around Julian as the Daffodil Lady as she has been planting daffodil bulbs publicly around Julian for the past 25 years. She coordinates the purchases and public plantings in November and December that beautify Julian each spring. Over 1 million bulbs have been planted in Julian and Wynola through this project. At this program, you will also learn about the different categories of daffodils, how they are judged, and how you can win a prize for growing daffodils in one of the more unusual categories. Start planning now for the annual Daffodil Show is scheduled for March 12-13, 2016 with entries to be submitted on Friday, March 11. Kids are welcome and are encouraged to enter their daffodils for the kids’ category of the contest. The Bulb of the Year for 2016 “Golden Echo” will be offered for sale at the talk. This daffodil has white petals and an elongated golden cup. The gold seeps into the petals to give a halo effect, hence the echo in the name. Emblazoned by the sun, this fragrant hybrid is glistening creamy-white with a sunny golden halo around the base of its amazingly long, brilliant yellow, stovepipe trumpet. Flowers are often borne two per stem and are long lasting and very fragrant. The appeal of daffodils lies in their beauty and durability. Their flowers come in a range of colors (yellow, of course, but white, too, often with contrasting cups of orange or pink) and in a variety of shapes and sizes. They bring the spark of life to the early-spring landscape. Planted in a sunny location where the soil drains well, most daffodils are willing to come back year after year, their clumps increasing in size over time. Perhaps best of all, deer and rodents leave daffodils alone. That is because all daffodils contain a bitter poison called lycorine. Whether you have heard Sally talk about daffodils before or this will be your first time, you will always learn something new and to come away with a new appreciation for the flower that has become a wellknown symbol of Julian in early spring. Please join us at the Julian Library on Saturday, October 24, at 11:00 AM. The library is located at 1850 Hwy 78, Julian. For more information, call the library at 760765-0370.
For the first time in a very long time, there was a Junior Varsity football game on Eagles Field. The game is played on the same dimensioned field, but with 10 minutes quarters instead of the Varsity’s 12 minute quarters. Our Eagles freshmen, sophomores and first year seniors got to start and play for a full game against the Calvin Christian Crusaders in the first of two JV games this season. Calvin won the coin toss and elected to receive the opening kickoff. Sophomore Will Hatch opened the game with a booming kickoff down to the Crusaders 10 and was in on the tackle at the Crusaders 18. Calvin’s QB took the first snap and picked up 20 yards when an Eagles defender missed his assignment and allowed the runner to run free around the left side of the line. The next snap went into orbit for an 11 yard loss. Insult was added to injury as the Crusaders were called for an illegal procedure call and another 5 yard loss. The Crusaders got it into gear and picked up 1st down and 2 plays later picked up the first score of the game. Their 2 point conversion failed. 6:22 left in the 1st Quarter, Calvin 6, Julian 0. Calvin’s kick went down to Will, deep in Julian territory and he brought it back to the Eagles’ 23. Frankie Alvarado took his first starting hand off and fought his way for a 2 yard pickup. Frankie’s line failed him and he only got a yard on the next snap. Frosh QB Tyler Smith’s first pass to Frankie fell incomplete. Will came in to punt and dropped the ball at Calvin’s 38. Calvin went 3 and out after an all out blitz by the Eagles defense on Calvin’s 3rd down pass attempt. The Crusaders short punt was downed at the
Chamber Members Will Vote For 5 People To Serve On The Board For Next Two Years The Annual Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors election is taking place, ballots have been mailed to all “members in good standing” and they have until November 19 at 4pm to return them. Stepping down from the board is current President Mike Menghini, Treasurer Dick Thilken and board member Randy Meyers. The chamber is a California Corporation (C0142417), Internal Revenue Code section 501(c)(6) specifically defines chambers of commerce and boards of trade as exempt organizations. A chamber of commerce usually is composed of the merchants and traders of a city. The Chamber Board of Directors consists of nine members, each elected for a two year term, four elected in even years and like this year five in the odd year. According to their by-laws one third of the eligible membership must return ballots to constitute a valid election. The slate of candidates: Rick Campbell - Rick's been a merchant in the Julian town site for over 35 years. He served as a Chamber board member in the 1980's in the capacity of treasurer. If elected to the new 2016 board, Rick's focus will be on marketing, to help increase business for the Julian townsite businesses. Leslie Crouch - She moved to Julian in 2007 and continued her business, Wetduck Designs, that she began in El Cajon, out of her home. Last year she opened her shop at the Trading Post on
Hwy 79. As a business owner specializing in promotional products she feels she will be able to bring fresh ideas to promote, support and encourage Julian Chamber Members to reach their full potential. Adele Delgado - Adele has lived in Julian for 40 years and seen a lot of the ebb and flow of the town. She & her husband own the Candy Basket. She believes we can build on what we have and use new marketing techniques to make it even better. She wants to develop events that leave time for people to shop and enjoy our town. Kat Dupre - Kat is the owner of Kat's Yarn & Craft Cottage. She stepped up to fill a board vacancy early this year and would like to continue to serve the Julian Community and the interests and needs of both new and long time businesses, especially as Membership Chair. Her former career in higher education management, program development, marketing and recruiting provide many useful transferable sklls. Ed Glass - Ed also filled a vacancy on the chamber board. He owns Butterfield Bed and Breakfast, with his wife Dawn. Changing careers in 1999, they left their Bay Area roots. Both volunteer for events including Country Christmas, 4th of July Parade, and also created this year's 1st annual Sip of Julian. His Julian focus includes increasing visitors, and hopes to help restore Julian's local services for residents. David Klumph - Dave is
the owner of Dave's Musical Entertainment. He possesses excellent communication and interpersonal skills. A concerned listerner he believes we sometimes need to agree to disagree and move forward.

Zora Martinez - If elected Zora intends to be an advocate to the Chamber's existing business & marketing plans and assist with the ongoing efforts to drive more traffic to the backcountry. She is the owner of Julian Vacation Rentals & Julian Asphalt, General manager of the San Diego East Visitor's Bureau, & Executive Director of the Calif. Welcome Center. Jan Paulsen - Jan is an agent with Rancho Financial Morgage Center. She believes combining thirty plus years of business management in real estate finance with her forty five year love affair of Julian lends itself well to the job of the Julian Chamber of Commerce Board Director. Roger Spillman - Roger is currently the CFO for the RSF (RogerSpillmanFamily) Internatiional company and the director for RSF Handyman Services. Previously he worked for Sony doing Quality Control, implementing International Standard Operations. New selectees will be seated at the December board meeting and begin work in January.

Gage Baay with an over the shoulder catch - a bright spot on the gloomy day Eagles 43. Tyler’s line missed most of their blocks and Tyler was sacked for a 9 yard loss. Will had no help and was met at the line of scrimmage for no gain. Will saved the possession when he recovered a hurried, fumbled snap. And with that, the 1st Quarter ended. At the end of 1, Calvin Christian 6, Julian 0. The 2nd Quarter started with a very short punt to the Julian 46. On 1st down, the Calvin QB kept the ball and picked up 34 yards and a 1st down at the Eagles 12. Three plays later the Crusaders scored on a run up the middle. Their 2 point conversion was smashed down for a loss and no score. 8 minutes left in the Half, Calvin 12, Julian 0. Frankie took the Crusaders kick at his 13 and picked up 8 yards with his return. Will stepped in and picked up 3 yards on his 1st down rush. Tyler’s pass to Gage Baay fell incomplete and Tyler was smacked down for an 8 yard loss. The 4th down snap was wild and off target and by the time Tyler recovered the ball he was deep in the endzone and tackled for a safety. 6:52 to go in the 1st Half, Calvin 14, Julian 0. After the safety, the Eagles kicked the ball away from their 20
and the ball sailed to the Calvin 30. The Calvin returner got up a full head of steam and was brought down by a shoestring tackle at the Eagles 2. The Crusaders made quick work of their possession and scored from the 2. Again, the Eagles defense prevented the 2 point conversion. 6:41 in the half, the Crusaders 20, our Eagles 0. With a cold, dank fog rolling form the West, Will took the Crusaders’ kick at the Eagles 13 and fought his way up field to the Eagles 34. Will bought the ball out to the Eagles 47 on three carries and a 1st down. Tyler got a good snap and protection and found Gage just beyond the linebackers for a 36 yard pass and run, down to the Crusaders’ 17 yard line. Will had no Oline help and was dropped for losses on his next 2 touches. Tyler couldn’t find any open receivers and lost 15 yards. Calvin sniffed a quick pass to Will on 4th down and the ball went over to the Crusaders at their own 29. Calvin marched down the field in the closing minutes of the 1st half and scored with 6 seconds showing on the clock. They just couldn’t get their 2 point conversion, again. continued on page 3
