Estates wages campaign against road project Not everyone agrees

By KAREN BRAINARD As the county moves toward a fall construction start date for the San Vicente Road improvements—a project that has been planned for years— hundreds of residents in San Diego Country Estates (SDCE) are stating their opposition.

Their protest is infuriating project supporters.

Some residents say they were not aware of the road realignment.

According to the county Department of Public Works, it was first proposed in the early 1990s because curves in the road do not meet county standards.

At the request of SDCE General Manager Mario Trejo, staff from county Department of Public Works (DPW) gave a presentation on the road project during

an Estates board meeting in October. Approximately 125 Estates residents attended the meeting, which led to a petition opposing the project. Four of the five directors of the SDCE board endorsed the petition. Secretary Maggie Johnson abstained from voting.

On Monday, Perry Jones, treasurer of the board, said

901 signatures had been received on petitions. Petitions were sent out with each homeowner’s recent association assessment.

Jones said some petitions that were returned had more than one signature.

He hopes to have all the petitions in by Jan. 15 and is trying to set up a meeting with County Supervisor Dianne Jacob whose

District 2 includes Ramona.

“I think there are a lot of concerns on so many levels,” said Doug Kafka, president of the SDCE board. About 11,000 people live in the Estates, he said.

Jones said he knew of about seven people who voiced support for San Vicente Road improvements.

Minervini said the county Parks and Recreation

Department and Supervisor Dianne Jacob are looking for total community endorsement. The county will decide if the project will be funded, Minervini stated in an email.

Minervini has proposed a two-phased skatepark approach with phase 1 calling for two small skateparks within the next six months, possibly at Collier Park at 626 E St. and at the Arriba Teen Center at 1710 Montecito Road, with ramps built by volunteers, and phase 2 focusing on a world-class skatepark in the next five years.

In his three years on the board, Kafka said he never heard about the road improvements and the county should have contacted the board.

SDCE resident Joe Cahak, who said he spearheaded the improvements 15 years ago, is furious.

“They seem to have gone brain-dead on all of this,” he said. “By denying this road standard, we’re literally locking us into this bad road for the rest of our lives. This is our one chance.”

Over 10 years ago, the board at that time unanimously supported improvements, said Cahak.

The San Vicente Road project calls for widening and straightening what are considered the most dangerous curves on San Vicente Road from Warnock Drive to 1,000 feet east of Wildcat Canyon Road. Plans include adding a 5-foot bike lane and a 10-foot pathway for hikers and horses. About 150 oak trees will be removed to improve sight lines, and the road will be designed for speeds of 55 mph but the posted speed will be 50 mph, according to DPW. Project design is scheduled to be completed this spring.

Those who support the changes see them as safety measures for an area that's been the scene of serious accidents in which many people, including teenagers and young adults, have

on county Board of Supervisors Supervisor Dianne Jacob on Monday began her sixth term representing Ramona, Julian, and other communities in her East County district, vowing to redouble her efforts to boost fire protection, public safety, and other issues central to constituents.

“I’m as excited today as I was in 1993, when I first came into office,” said Jacob, following a swearing-in ceremony at the County Operations Center in Kearny Mesa. “I’m very humbled, and starting next month I will have the distinction of holding elective office longer than any woman in our county government’s history.”

In a brief speech, Jacob said her top priorities include: •Completing the consolidation of rural fire agencies to better coordinate services within the region’s most fire-prone communities.

•Additional public safety improvements. She said a new sheriff’s station will open later this year in Ran-

Planning group wants voice heard on solar project

By KAREN BRAINARD Continuing to oppose the Sol Orchard solar energy project for Warnock Drive and Ramona Street, Ramona Community Planning Group is taking steps to make sure its voice is heard before the issue goes to the county Board of Supervisors for a vote.

RCPG unanimously rejected the Sol Orchard project twice in 2012, but the group is only advisory and the county Planning Commission in October approved a major use permit for the solar farm. The

next step is the supervisors.

The project calls for solar panels on 42.7 acres of the 110-acre farm in the 1600 block of Warnock Drive. The owner of the farm would lease the land to Sol Orchard for 25 years.

At its December meeting, Ramona planning group members consented to send two different letters—one to District 2 Supervisor Dianne Jacob, restating its opposition to the solar farm, and the other to the project’s landscape architect with recommenda-

tions in case the solar farm is approved. Not all members were in agreement with the second letter.

The letter to Jacob, drafted by member Torry Brean on behalf of the planning group, goes beyond opposing the project to ask for Jacob’s help to keep the Ramona planning group relevant. The letter notes that the planning commission also approved the Hidden Valley Ranch Rehabilitation Center on Highland Valley Road despite the RCPG’s unanimous opposition.

“The reason for this cor-

respondence is not to cast aspersions but to vocalize our united desire for the voices of Ramona to be heard and to continue to work proactively with the county planners,” the letter states.

The other letter was drafted by member Scotty Ensign, owner of Scotty’s Plantscapes, and gives recommendations for plants that would survive in the Ramona climate and would provide visual barriers if the project goes through.

“I want it to be blocked

not having to pay another SDG&E bill — this year or ever,” she said.

Jacob also plans to continue to press for more recreational facilities, open-space preservation, and hiking and riding trails in District 2, the supervisorial area she represents.

She was sworn in for a new four-year term by Cal Fire Chief Thom Porter, who is also head of the County Fire Authority.

Jacob welcomed Dave Roberts to the Board of Supervisors, noting that the fivemember panel hasn’t had a new member

in nearly two decades.

Jacob, a former elementary school teacher and Jamul-Dulzura Union School District board member, was re-elected in June with nearly 78 percent of the vote.

The 2,000-square-mile district is the county’s largest and includes El Cajon, Campo, Lakeside, and Alpine as well as Ramona, Julian, and other backcountry communities.

The supervisor and her husband, Paul, own a ranch in Jamul. He joined her at the ceremony.

when the planning group opposes the solar installation. Chair Jim Piva said the planning group could lose the opportunity to mitigate the solar for the community if the supervisors OK the project.

Planners decided that the letter should first affirm their adamant opposition to the project before offering the plant proposal.

Deskovick and Angus Tobiason voted against the letter, Kevin Wallace abstained from voting, and Richard Tomlinson stepped down.

as much as humanly possible,” said Ensign. His tree choices include evergreen and deciduous with 75 percent being evergreen.

Ensign also said all trees should be 24-inch boxes or greater at the time of planting, and shrubs should be 15 gallons, if available. He also addressed irrigation and recommended yearround landscaping maintenance.

RCPG member Matt Deskovick disagreed with sending the letter, saying it didn’t make sense to offer landscaping suggestions

died or been severely injured.

A Dec. 23, 1999, Ramona Sentinel article states that the SDCE board unanimously approved sending a letter to Jacob “to immediately take whatever steps are necessary” to make San Vicente Road safe.

That decision followed the Nov. 8, 1999, death of Deviney Snider, a Ramona High School student who was in an accident on San Vicente Road.

Cahak said he has talked to parents whose children have been in accidents and they want the improvements. He has also contacted Jacob’s office and DPW. One of the concerns about the project, Kafka said, is that during construction, residents were told they could expect waits of 15 to 20 minutes during daytime hours when one lane is closed, which he said would be inconvenient as well as unsafe for emergency vehicles or in the case of an evacuation. He added that a lane closure would have a residual economic af-

fect as San Vicente Resort could lose golf and dining revenues.

Steve Ron, project manager with DPW, told the Sentinel that the county will try “to avoid any inconvenience as much as possible.”

Those opposing the project also do not want to see the oak trees removed, although Cahak said he was involved in setting up a tree mitigation program.

“To take down 150 old solid trees is quite a shame,” said Kafka. “It’s very much the flavor of what Ramona is to us.”

They also say straightening the road could cause drivers to speed more and question whether horseback riders would ride on a trail next to 50 mph traffic.

Although some say they didn’t know of the project, Ron said that in 2005 the Ramona Community Planning Group added the San Vicente Road project to its priority list and in 2010 approved the project’s Environmental Impact Report (EIR), which was then approved by the county Board of Supervisors in

January 2011. Ron gave a presentation to update the RCPG on the project in July 2012.

Ron said the project will probably go to the county supervisors in June to authorize staff to advertise and award a contract for construction, scheduled for fall.

Total cost of the project, he said, is about $40 million. That includes $21 million in road improvements; $10 million for relocation of utilities from San Diego Gas & Electric, Ramona Municipal Water District (see related article, this page), AT&T, and Cox Communications; and costs for right of way, design, and the EIR (see sidebar). Design and construction will be funded by transportation impact fees (TIF) and the TransNet half-cent sales tax.

As the construction period nears, Ron said the county will reach out to the public with project updates.

Kafka said anyone interested in signing the petition opposing the project should call 760-789-3260.

For the county to construct the San Vicente Road improvements, Ramona Municipal Water District must relocate 19,000 feet of water main that is within the project’s right of way at an estimated cost of $5 million.

To finance the project, the water district says it will have to increase water rates to pay for debt service.

In December, district directors authorized General Manager David Barnum to seek financing options for the pipeline relocation.

Barnum told the Sentinel that in a cou-

ple of months he will present those options to the board but the district will not commit to any arrangement unless it is 100 percent sure the San Vicente Road project will be constructed.

Barnum told the water board that RMWD would “borrow only the money we need when we need it.”

The 30-year-old pipeline is the main source of water to the Estates, a 3,250acre planned community with about 3,500 homes. Barnum said the San Vicente Road pipeline has a maximum lifespan of 50 years.

New chamber president eyes ways to improve town’s business climate

By KAREN BRAINARD With the start of a new year and a new role, incoming Ramona Chamber of Commerce President Bob Murray is taking a hard look at business in Ramona and sees a huge concern.

Many storefront businesses and restaurants have closed in the past couple of years.

“I want to make this a good year. We need to start thinking outside the box to get people up here,” said Murray who owns Java Hut on San Vicente Road in San Diego Country Estates. “We have to make Ramona more enticing, that’s for sure,” he said. “We need something more eye-catching.”

One idea that has been proposed to make the downtown more appealing is to add an arched landmark sign over Main Street, similar to what El Cajon has in its commercial district, said Murray.

Such a sign is scheduled to be discussed at the Ramona Community Planning Group meeting Thursday

evening in the Ramona Community Center.

Murray said he intends to address the business climate at the chamber board’s retreat on Jan. 16, when the board will plan out the entire year of events, and he hopes to gather statistics on the number of businesses that have closed in Ramona or left the chamber in recent years.

Among businesses that have shut their doors in the past couple of years are Just ‘N Time deli, Nan’s Place, Southern California Wine Co., Kenrix Sushi, All About Africa, Sandy’s Shoppe, Wrangler Dan’s, 20-20 Eyesite and, most recently, All About Yogurt.

Some storefronts, such as Stallion Cigar and Ramona Interiors, have become Internet-based.

At the same time, several businesses have opened in town, and Murray said he wants to talk to those business owners to see how they are doing and discuss their outlook for the future.

Murray noted that many new businesses that have joined the chamber are

Planners approve church plans Ramona Community Planning Group has approved building plans for the Spirit of Joy Lutheran Church campus to be built at the corner of State Route 67 and Highland Valley/ Dye Road.

Only one person spoke against the project at the planning group’s December meeting. Resident Vivian Osborne questioned environmental health studies of the proposed package sewage treatment plant.

The church plans to construct a sanctuary, fellow-

ship hall, administration/ classroom building, and a maintenance building, and install a package treatment plant on the 8.8-acre site.

According to the county’s Department of Planning and Development Services, once the church completes its application for the project, there will be an environmental review followed by a public comment period. At the earliest, that review could be available in three months, said a spokesperson for the department.

Internet-based. He said regulatory fees have been roadblocks for some entrepreneurs hoping to set up shop downtown.

County Transportation Impact Fees (TIF) and Ramona Municipal Water District’s sewer mitigation and connection fees have been cost-prohibitive for some potential business owners, he said.

“We know that TIF fees

were lowered, which will probably help a lot,” he said.

In October 2013, the county supervisors lowered TIF rates by as much as 80 percent for commercial structures.

Murray said he hopes to have discussions with the water board to see what can be done to lower fees and make the community more business friendly.

Ramona Sentinel and the food they receive, so they haven’t left the property, and we have additional fencing around the perimeter, but not everyone is so lucky. couple of months ago driving from my home to work in the dark morning hours, I saw what looked like a huge blood stain on the road. Of course I immediately denied it to myself but quickly noticed tractor tire marks in the roadway, and huge, dark streaks following the tracks — again, absolute denial.

While my brain told me, and I really did know the reality, that a horse was hit and obviously killed right there on the road so close to home, I just couldn’t fathom the idea. There was too big a stain for it to have been a dog, or really even a human being. It was, however, too dark to know for certain. I could hardly breathe at the thought of it.

It haunted me all day.

On my way home in the light of day I did see the telltale signs of a large animal having bled, a lot, on the side of the road and a tractor having to be used to pick it up and get it out of the traffic lanes and out of public view. I was so sad. I got home and checked my

A Is Your Horse Safe?

E

veryone likes to think their horses are safe.

Placed in a well-built corral or pasture we have it in mind that they will be secure from any harm.

We comb over the ground looking for nails, rocks, and other debris that may hurt our beloved horses. Many folks use hot wire in an extra effort to keep their horses from leaning on or through the fencing. I’ve seen people put up pipe corrals, then wooden fencing as a secondary barrier. Of course, horses eat wood, so that rarely lasts very long if it is within their reach.

I hadn’t given much thought to the type of fencing I used for my horses until I got Cricket. I always

used pipe corral type fencing and never had an issue. Cricket, however, has taught me over the years the many ways of getting out of even the pipe fencing: Pushing until it gives, picking up portions of it until it comes apart, opening the gate latches, fiddling with the bolts on the clamps until the nut comes off, and so on. I never had any of these issues with the domestic equine I owned.

After years of living with her getting out and pigging out, there are chains and clips all over the fencing. We have extra panels, metal bars, and support buttresses everywhere to keep the horses in the fence and safe. Luckily they like where they live

pasture clamps and fencing and felt worried for days. I couldn’t imagine what happened to the vehicle or person driving it. I hoped they were OK. Again about two weeks ago another story surfaced of a horse getting loose at night and having been hit and killed on the other side of town. I know the person was OK and I know the horse was not. I know the owners of the horse did everything they could to avoid the situation, but honestly how can we guarantee that our horses are safe? Without accusation or blame, my heart was broken for those involved. Shoot, I cry when I hit a squirrel. I can’t begin to fathom hitting a horse.

Two horses killed within a couple of months. Wow! I went out and checked my pasture fencing again and tightened all of the clamps whether they needed it or not. I asked my husband if he thought my horses were safe enough and talked about it until he went out and checked, too. OK, I nagged, but hey, these are the loves of my life we’re talking about!

Many other people are successful in keeping their horses safe with wooden fencing, hot wire fenc-

Letters Let’s discuss school security Last week the attorney general for the state of Arizona said he was going to try to change state laws to allow teachers to be armed, and Utah has already confirmed that they intend to train 200 teachers to carry concealed weapons.

In Utah you can get a non-resident permit to carry a concealed weapon that has reciprocity in 15 other states. In Arizona they used to have a law that allowed people to carry a firearm openly. Then they passed a law allowing anyone who can pass a background check to get a permit for concealed carry. Now Arizona is one of three states — the others being Alaska and Vermont — that allow citizens to carry a firearm without a permit or authorization from the authorities. In California it is up to the discretion of the law enforcement entity to determine who can or who can’t carry a firearm for personal protection.

I have talked to several school board members and a casual conversation with the Sheriff’s Department and was assured that they would support the community regarding the arming of teachers. I hope this is a beginning of a dialogue regarding school security and hence the larger issue of CCW (carrying a concealed weapon).

Dr. Gary B. Myers, OD Ramona

It’s NOT the road Reading the letters regarding San Vicente Road is kind of like the national discourse about the terrible tragedy in Connecticut before Christmas. In that terrible event, it was not the guns to blame, but the court system that refused a mother’s pleas to commit a dangerously deranged child, thanks to the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union). Regardless, we blame the guns.

In our town paving our scenic byways into four-lane highways and reducing our individuality to that of “just another suburb” (like Poway) won’t do a durned thing to reduce fatal accidents. Indeed, they’ll increase.

Who’s driven the four-lane portion of said road inside the Estates at the speed limit? How many “sports sedans” go ripping by in excess of freeway speeds? And, where it goes from four to two lanes, do you “speed limit drivers” get almost run off the road? Don’t you have frustrated speeders riding your rear bumper all the way into town?

Let’s solve two urgent town issues with one simple and practical “fix.”

How about profitable “speed limit cameras” placed strategically along San Vicente, and why not Route 67 and 78, too? These cameras can be relocated frequently, and they will catch and photo the speeders who happen to cause most of the fatal wrecks. These systems are free from the vendors who simply collect a percentage of the “take.”

Given fines in excess of $500, and were the net proceeds directed to Ramona Unified School District, the district just may find enough new revenue to avoid state takeover, and reduce their enormous loan debt.

Pyrrhic justice, what?

Point, Counterpoint

Reasons for supporting Reasons for petition San Vicente Road project effort against project

By MIKE LORANGER I’m not expecting everyone’s agreement, but only asking for an open-minded look at a different point of view.

Not one to air San Diego Country Estates Association dirty laundry for all of Ramona to see, but for whatever reason, a “Petition to Oppose the San Vicente Road Relocation and Improvements” was sent to all the SDCE homeowners in an official SDCEA mailing, leading me to conclude that somehow and for some reason our association has taken a stance against improvements to a

very public thoroughfare in Ramona.

I enjoy and respect the steps the SDCEA has shown over the years to support and protect the rights of homeowners, but feel in this instance they have put their noses where they do not belong. If a group, including the SDCEA Board of Directors, opposes improvements outside the SDCE, they have every right to act privately, in which case I feel they should use neither SDCEA official mailings, nor collection resources, to their benefit.

By PERRY JONES This is in response to the Letter to the Editor in the Ramona Sentinel of Dec. 27 by Mike and Debbie Cannone and others who may have some questions regarding the San Diego Country Estates Association Board’s Petition Campaign to stop the relocation and straightening of San Vicente Road between Warnock and Wildcat Canyon roads.

I can well understand that with the first thoughts, some would consider the straightening of San Vicente to be a big safety improvement. The SDCEA Board members are likewise concerned with the accidents that have taken place on this road over the years. But we also know that there have been many serious accidents on San

Vicente Road where it is divided and with four lanes. In this four-lane area every day many drivers are going 70 to 80+ mph and that is in a 45 mph zone.

In SDCE we have many law enforcement officers both active and retired who live here. All of those who have talked to us are against the road relocation and feel that many drivers will drive even faster on a straightened road and therefore make it less safe (for the three reasons stated below).

We feel that the following items are major considerations: •The proposed new road would still have just two lanes and the same speed limit of 50 mph, but adding a bike path and horse trail.

•The road would not See JONES, page 9

Sentinel Reader Opinion A Modest Proposal for Ramona Unified School District & the Citizens of Ramona

By DR. JANE TANAKA AND GREG CHICK Loyal and Forthright Ramonans

G

iven the current state of hopelessness and despair, since the demise of Proposition R in the November 2012 election; Ramona Unified School District with its leaking roofs ready to collapse; its school buildings being held together by tenacious termites linking arms; its tattered textbooks it cannot afford to replace; with certain citizens ready to throw moldy melons at our district superintendent’s back; with its teachers’ union president forewarning that Ramona will turn into a “town of only old people” if its teachers are forced to take a 10 percent pay cut; and given that even the most patriotic “teatotalers” of Ramona are ready to toss the school district to the school czars of State of California due to impending insolvency from its $34 million mortgage debt, we most humbly and modestly propose the following: FOR THE GOOD OF RAMONA, THE CHILDREN OF RAMONA DO NOT NEED TO BE EDUCATED. We are told by a most respected despot of a third world nation, who shall remain anonymous, that children in his country are doing very well without an education.

Of course, it keeps the poor working class in their place, especially if they are unable to read or write and unable to orga-

and school campuses, no longer needed as schools for children, could be bought by the nouveau-riche of Ramona; and this would aid the ailing real estate industry of our town. The football and softball fields of Ramona, which require too much water to irrigate in our Valley of the Sun, could instead grow cannabis, a much more drought-tolerant crop than turf grass. Ramona could then honor its $34 million debt via profits from sales from these crops in a year or two, with less interest accrued than if the 55% of voters of Ramona had approved Proposition R. The newest former schools, which are still in excellent condition, could then be refashioned into Drug Depot Centers, which could employ the parents, who would no longer have to travel so many miles to work down the hill. These savings in petroleum and time will then further benefit the now happy and content families of Ramona who no longer have financial strife. Families in Ramona could spend more quality time together, and also parents could retire early.

Ramona could then finally be financially self-sufficient enough to secede from the county, state and union, and have its own government, make its own laws. Most importantly, we the citizens

Guest Commentary

of Ramona could finally snub our noses at our poorer cousins who live in Poway, Rancho Santa Fe, and La Jolla.

We have thoroughly researched the plausibility of this proposal, and are fairly certain that no Ramonan has a better solution to RUSD’s hopeless plight. We are certain that Ramonans will support this proposal because it does not increase their property taxes by even a mere dollar per day, for the next 20 years; nor does this proposal coerce Ramona adults into volunteering at their children’s or grandchildren’s classrooms.

It will most certainly not violate any union rules or risk liability by having community volunteers come in to repair school structures either. After all, it is far more important that we Ramonans stand by our principles! Above all, we Ramonans MUST NOT enable the school district administrators and board members, who UNFORGIVABLY built two new elementary schools during a time of declining enrollment, by giving them any of our hard-earned Ramona dollars, in response to their pathetic pleas for another school bond measure, even if they should ask for $34 million instead of $66 million.

(A Modest Proposal for RUSD and the Citizens of Ramona is the opinion of the writers, who are Ramona residents. Any resemblance in content to A Modest Proposal by Mr. Jonathan Swift are purely plagiarized and purposeful.)

From page 8

The SDCEA petition itself dumbfounds me. I understand that we as Californians seem to sometimes defy all logic when we make decisions, but the arguments I have been exposed to as to why San Vicente Road (SVR) should be left “as is” make my head spin. These are the reasons that are stated in the petition (followed by g

nize to overthrow the government. More importantly, children of Ramona would also be able to fulfill their original filial purpose on Earth, to support their parents and grandparents by going to work at the age of 5 or 6 years. This is all is made possible if they don’t go to school.

If they cannot find jobs in industry, sales or other traditional trades, they can become young soldiers, trained by drug militia, as they do in certain other countries, and serve us proudly in this way. There is certainly enough heroin, cocaine, crystal meth and cannabis in Ramona to protect, so it is certain that our children will not want for employment.

Ramona, protected from the DEA (Drug Enforcement Administration) by its young militia, would become a mecca not only for all in San Diego who have medical marijuana cards, but also those San Diegans who do not wish to risk traveling to Tijuana, or find it distasteful to carry balloons of heroin in their anal cavities across the U.S.-Mexico border. The former administrators, teachers and staff of Ramona Unified School District could become officers in this militia, and would have much more generous salaries, benefits and pensions than they have now.

my comments): •The proposed new road would not eliminate the major causes of accidents on the road: excessive speed, driving under the influence and inexperienced drivers. (These are the three main causes of mishaps on ANY road.

While “elimination” is a worthy goal, “reduction” is a realistic goal.)

•The proposed new road, with the same 50 mph speed limit, would only encourage people to drive faster, therefore less safe. (So an improved road will be in fact less safe? I can’t follow this logic. It is beyond my comprehension.)

•Horseback riders would not ride on a trail a few feet from 50+ mph

traffic. (There is currently NO horse trail on SVR. If the equestrian community desires a safe trail, I ask they get involved in the planning process and lobby for the safety measures that will meet their needs, not stop the project.)

•The $40 million plus cost of the project ($10 million per mile) is excessive for the project and not

eliminate the major causes of accidents: excessive speed, driving under the influence, and inexperienced drivers •Being a straighter road, it would encourage many drivers to drive even faster •Horseback riders would not ride on a trail a few feet from 50+ mph traffic •The construction cost will be $40 million for the project ($10 million per mile) •An additional cost of about $5,182,000+ will be needed to move a Ramona Municipal Water District water pipe, which will be paid for by the RMWD water ratepayers (this means YOU) •The current rural natural tree

lined road is enjoyed by many •The project would require the removal of 145 old native California Live Oaks and Engelmann Oak trees •The construction is scheduled to begin in 2013 and will last over two years which will cause many delays and increase commute times for everyone leaving or returning to SDCE •During the two-year construction period, should an evacuation or other emergency take place, traffic on San Vicente Road, at times, would be limited to one lane for both directions •A bike lane could be added to the current road The SDCE Management and Board have elected to oppose the proposed project of relocating and straighten-

ing of San Vicente Road and have therefore started the petition to stop this project. So far the response to this petition has been overwhelming having received several hundred signatures in support and having heard from only three who disagree.

We encourage all SDCE residents, who agree, to sign the petition so that we will have as many signatures as possible to present to Dianne Jacob, county supervisor, when we meet with her later this month.

wanted by the community it is to serve. (Although I tend to agree that the cost seems excessive, this is the cost of doing business in the State of California. That said, I can’t think of better use for our road taxes. To further state in a petition signed by a subset of individuals that these improvements are not wanted by the entire community is at best disingenuous.)

•We like the rural tree lined nature of the present road. (Take a good look at those trees when next you travel SVR. Many are scarred with the marks of automobiles that have been embedded into their trunks over and over again; also of note, damaged guardrails inches from travel lanes, automobile body parts and glass littering the road, jagged rocks inches from the pavement, blind curves without sufficient shoulder areas for emergency parking, SVR homeowners making left turns over double yellow lines, and the always fresh supply of skid marks de-

parting the roadway heading off into bushes, trees, rocks, power poles, etc.; the list of extreme hazards on SVR is long.)

•The project would require the removal of 145 native California Live Oak trees. (There is no need to argue the aesthetics of these trees, but by law it is mandatory at least one new tree be replanted for each tree removed, and that private property owners be compensated.)

•A bike lane could be added to the current road.

(A bike lane could be added, but the road would need to be widened, straightened, and trees removed. This leads us back to the beginning.)

On the morning of Saturday, April 14, 2012, my daughter, 17 years old at the time, was westbound on SVR, heading into Ramona High School for an activity. SVR road was wet, and on-scene witnesses confirmed my daughter was traveling well BELOW See LORANGER, page 11

OBITUARIES

Christine Joyce Evans 1951 – 2012

Christine Evans, 61, of Ramona passed away unexpectedly on December 29, 2012. She was born on March 24, 1951, in Astoria, Oregon. She referred to herself as a “Navy Brat” as her father was in the U.S. Navy and they moved frequently. She spent three years of her childhood in Japan as her father was stationed there and she had fond memories and stories of her time there. Eventually they settled in Southern California and she attended Lakewood High School in Lakewood, California, graduating in 1969.

She married her husband Dan in 1970. They traveled through Ramona on their many trips to the desert and decided to settle down here in the spring of 1979.

She loved the small town atmosphere and, being a people person, she enjoyed how everyone knew each other. She was a person that didn’t meet a stranger. As her mother lovingly said, “She had the “gift of gab”.

Over the years, she wore many hats: stay at home mom, house cleaner, administrative assistant, and bank teller. She eventually was hired as a physical therapist aide. From that position, she realized that is what she wanted to do as a career and enrolled in college for the first time at age 32, where she earned her Associates of Science degree and went on to work 20 plus years as a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant. She absolutely loved working with people and their families, assisting in their recovery She is survived by her husband of 42 years, Dan Evans of Ramona. She is also survived by her

daughters, Angela Gunnett (Evans) and Summer Evans; granddaughter, Madison Gunnett; mother, Carolyn Youngworth; sisters, Roxanne Youngworth and Cindy Vollnogle; motherin-law, Colleen Evans; two nephews; and one niece. She was preceded in death by her father, Don Youngworth, and her father-in-law, Giles Evans.

Services were held on Monday, January 7, 2013, at Bonham Bros & Stewart Mortuary Chapel.

She was laid to rest at Nuevo Memory Gardens in Ramona.

Nelson Jandura, 60, passed away December 20, 2012, in Fort Collins, Colorado, with his daughter, Tanya, and his unborn granddaughter, Jolene, by his side.

He was born June 30, 1952, to Alice and Joseph Jandura in the city of Somerset, New Jersey, the youngest of four, a sister, Donna, and two brothers, Robert and Ken. Nelson was raised on the family ranch where he learned his strong work ethic and love of the country. With his older brother, Ken, serving in the Navy, one month and three days after his 18th birthday he enlisted in the United States Coast Guard.

He would always say, “They never told me what coast I was going to be guarding.”

He spent 13 months and 20 days in Vietnam.

In the Mid 1970’s, Nelson became a private aircraft pilot and commercial truck driver. In the early 1980’s he was blessed with two children, Jason and Tanya.

He moved to Ramona in 1984 where he made his home. He spent 20 years driving tanker trucks on Palomar Mountain. Later, he relocated to Fort Collins, CO, where he hauled oversized loads, and returned to ranching cattle as he had done as a boy.

Nelson was a loving and honest father and the best

When he came back to San Diego he started his career in mechanical design.

His first marriage to Cyndi blessed him with three fabulous kids, Melissa Hughes of San Diego, Thomas Hughes of San Jose, and Matthew Hughes of China. Bob is also survived by his second wife, Maria of Bonita, CA. Bob loved sports and was honored to be his son’s baseball coach, 1988-1991, for the Ramona Pony Baseball.

She was rounding a curve, one of many curves on SVR where the grade of the road tilts both incorrectly and dangerously against and away from the radius of the turn, when suddenly and without warning the back end of her vehicle began to slide into the eastbound lane; she corrected to the right, and as the tires again gained traction, she

departed the roadway. Leaving the roadway, she hit one of those “beautiful” trees about five feet behind the driver’s door with such impact it smashed the bed of the truck almost in half and flipped the vehicle; a split second later, she ended up about 30 feet off the road, down in a deep ditch, the truck on its side.

A passerby who witnessed the mishap climbed up on the vehicle, forced open a door and pulled my daughter from the wreckage. By the grace of God,

she walked away shaken, but without a scratch.

My family was blessed that day, but countless others have not been so fortunate, and I do mean countless; this is not rhetoric, it is fact! Again I state, this is not rhetoric!

This same scenario plays out over and over and over again; year after year after year after year; inexperienced driver? Yes. So what?

Vintners voluntarily Students stage blood drive at RHS take state training “We feel very positive about the December drive,” they said. “It was a cold rainy day, and many details had to be changed because of the weather, but collecting 87 pints of blood is a success. We have two more blood drives planned and our goal for the year is to collect a total of 350 pints of blood.”

Meeting their goal of 350 pints will qualify the RHS ASB for a $1,000 scholarship from the American Red Cross which will be dispersed to an individual or individuals within the ASB group.

“Besides the obvious benefit of saving lives, this is a wonderful project in terms of community service, “ said ASB Adviser Mona Snodgrass. “The do-

By PIXIE SULSER

Nearly 50 owners and employees of small “boutique” wineries and tasting rooms in unincorporated parts of the county voluntarily attended a recent training designed to help reduce intoxicated driving and youth access to alcohol.

The class — Licensee Education on Alcohol and Drugs, or LEAD training — is mandatory for people who sell or serve alcohol in San Diego-area cities with Responsible Beverage Sales and Service (RBSS) ordinances.

For the second year, San Diego County Vintners Association asked the North Inland Community Prevention Program to arrange a LEAD training for winery owners and employees located in areas without a RBSS ordinance.

Led by state Alcoholic Beverage Control instructor Ken Clark, the four-hour class teaches participants their legal responsibilities regarding alcohol, how to detect fake IDs, how to tell when customers are intoxicated, and how to safely cut them off.

“I think it shows we’re being responsible with

the wine that we’re making,” said Marilyn Kahle, membership chairwoman for the vintners association and co-owner of Woof’n Rose Winery in Ramona.

San Diego County Vintners Association hosted the training.

“It teaches you how to be responsible in serving wine,” said Kahle, adding “there’s a lot of content to learn.”

The association also invited Ramona Valley Winery Association, Ramona Valley Vineyard Association, and East County Vineyard Association members to the special training at the San Diego County Farm Bureau’s Escondido office.

More than 40 owners and workers from backcountry wineries and tasting rooms took advantage of the training along with a few other wineries’ employees, volunteers at charitable events where alcohol is served, and people seeking wine industry jobs attended the class.

Attendees included representatives of eight wineries and/or vineyards from the

During the recent holiday season when many were contemplating the perfect gift to give, students and staff at Ramona High School gave the gift of life by participating in the school’s second blood drive of the year.

Organized by the RHS ASB (Associated Student Body) in conjunction with San Diego Blood Bank, 87 pints of blood were collected in one day of donations.

According to event coordinators Claire Hagan (junior) and Samantha Fezzey (freshman), one pint of blood equals three lives, and one of every four units of blood used in the United States is from a high school blood drive.

Each blood drive is held on the RHS campus during school hours. Students 16 years and older are eligible to donate, however anyone under the age of 18 must have parental permission.

Before actually donating, perspective donors are interviewed by a Red Cross nurse who asks a series of health-related questions. A blood sample is taken to check for iron levels and blood type.

Before returning to their daily schedules, donors relax in a rest area and are offered snacks and juice to replenish their energy level.

“The Red Cross is an amazing group to work with, said Fezzey. “They make everything very safe and comfortable for the donors.”

The process of donating is quite simple, but finding donors is the challenge, shared Hagan and Fezzey, who hope to involve the community in their next two blood drives.

“As the dates approach, we will have posters put up around town, notices in the newspaper, and information posted on the school website. The more blood we collect, the more lives we save!”

Prescription Drug Abuse: What can YOU do?

he fastest growing drug usage trend among young people is the illegal use of prescription drugs. Where do you think they obtain the

drugs — the pharmacy?

No, quite often they find an easy source of pills by looking in their family’s medicine cabinet — or they visit grandparents and

take some of their grandparents' medications.

Most of the time they start by just taking a few pills, but if the habit grows strong enough they may take the whole bottle — or even try to have the prescription re-filled.

What can YOU do to slow this trend? If you have expired or unused/unneeded prescriptions, you can dispose of them properly by bringing them to the Ramona Sheriff’s Station Monday through Friday

from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Just bring them in and place them in the secure drug take-back receptacle and feel great that you have prevented the possibility they could fall into the wrong hands. It’s easy. You don’t even have to take them out of the bottle or destroy the label with your personal information on it.

What happens to the medication you bring to the Sheriff’s Department?

On a regular basis the medication is removed from

the receptacle by a deputy sheriff and evidence clerk.

They weigh and package the items and enter it into an Evidence Log. The securely packaged prescription drugs are then sent to the Sheriff’s Evidence Office for safekeeping. Once a certain quantity is collected, all the boxes of prescription drugs are then securely sent to be destroyed in a facility that “melts� them down — thus safely destroying the medicine, bottles, and labels in

an environmentally safe manner.

It’s a simple matter to be part of the battle against illegal prescription drug abuse. You don’t have to wait for the annual Drug Take-Back Event — just find a local Sheriff’s Station and do your part to reduce the opportunity for someone to illegally use your prescription medication.

For more information or questions, call Crime Prevention Specialist Barbara Wallace at 760-738-2425.

Cornerstone’s Equine Retirement Village

C

hristmas came early to the horses of Cornerstone Therapeutic Riding Center. On a Saturday morning before the holidays, instead of sleeping in or shopping, nearly 100 employees of HD Supply Facilities Maintenance in San Diego gathered in Ramona. In a unique mix of business and pleasure, the group has not only given support to a special organization based here, but has shown that what happens in Ramona goes far beyond its own backyard.

“We received a phone call from Jennifer Waldron, of HD Supply, and that started the ball rolling,” said Judy Beckett, founder and executive director of Cornerstone Therapeutic Riding Center, located at Creek Hollow Ranch. “She explained that many of the company employees volunteer their time for a big service project each year. Their budget is generous, and they carefully choose who receives their time and effort.”

Cornerstone completed the process, gave a presentation, and as a result was chosen by the company.

“As most people are aware, we offer therapeutic riding to our community kids with special needs, and also to our troop members,” says Beckett.

“Of course, we rely on the horses. They have served our program well and are worth their weight in gold.

Some of these horses, however, need to be retired, and frankly can’t be re-homed anywhere else.

They deserve to have a safe home for the rest of their life.”

“ACT stands for ‘A Community Team’ and is part of HD Supply Facilities Maintenance outreach program,” said Waldron.

“Cornerstone was an easy choice. Everyone loves what they do and the people they help.”

And with that, ACT spent a busy Saturday building Cornerstone’s Equine Retirement Village.

“It was a Herculean task. They did all the work

themselves, starting from scratch,” Beckett said.

“Not only did they build the structures, but they graded the area properly beforehand so the stalls don’t flood. They also painted our tack room and feed room, and cleared out all the brush and debris from around our arena, which was hip-high and thick.”

The retired equines now have access to three stalls 36 feet by 48 feet, a fourth stall 24 feet by 48 feet, and a turnout measuring 96 feet by 72 feet.

“The money went for the pipe corrals, shelters and other materials needed for the project,” said Waldron.

“Not only did the ACT team provide the funding to make this all happen, they did all the work themselves,” said Beckett.

“They were so pleasant with their positive attitudes and huge servant hearts. We were all so incredibly impressed with their spirit. It’s so inspiring to be the beneficiary of something like this. I was blown away at the end of the entire incredible day!“ As the event concluded, Waldron said, “It was really exciting to see how much of a change can happen in one day. Every-

one felt great about the completed projects, and being able to be around the horses and the Cornerstone volunteers was just wonderful. Everyone from the company, including the president and vicepresident, showed up to help. We hope to be able to do more for them in the future.”

“Of course, putting up some fence and buildings is only one small part of the gift. It shows a commitment to the program and to Ramona that we totally appreciate,” said

Beckett. “It proves that the work we are doing is gaining attention across the state and beyond.”

Taking care of the hard-working equines at Cornerstone is an invaluable service, but Beckett is quick to point out that with the holiday season over, volunteers and donations are needed more than ever.

“It can be hard to keep the momentum going when people take off for the holidays, and having to turn down riders because we don’t have

enough help is something we absolutely hate to do.

We can always use more volunteers and funding at this time of year,” said Beckett. “It’s for the kids and for our service members, so it’s a great way to carry forward the spirit of the season.”

Parents of 4-month-old quadruplets receive surprise visit from third-grader bearing gifts

By MAUREEN ROBERTSON Barnett Elementary School third-grader Alexavia Zetterberg hasn’t forgotten a “Ready Freddy” book her teacher read to the class when she was in kindergarten.

It was about homeless people, and it changed how Alexavia, daughter of Regina and John Zetterberg, looks at life—and giving.

Her “Believe in Miracles” campaign has become an annual effort to donate toys each Christmas to boys and girls in Rady Children’s Hospital.

Ramonans likely noticed her, accompanied by family members, outside Kmart for three weekends last month collecting toys for her campaign.

By Christmas, her toy chest had topped 600 gifts.

In addition to dropping toys in the large cardboard box she had set up near Kmart’s front door, some “Believe in Miracles” donors gave money to put toward gifts to be donated.

Alexavia, who had read a 2012 Ramona Sentinel article about a Ramona couple expecting quadruplets, decided to spend some of the donated money on gifts for the four

babies, born Aug. 22 to Aimee and Justin Alhgren, so she arranged with Justin’s mother, Julie Alhgren, to surprise the young familiy with a Christmas Eve visit.

“We were all so im-

pressed with how mature she is,” Julie Alhgren said.

“She is just so bubbly and outgoing and seems so genuine. Justin and Aimee were overwhelmed that she would do this for them, and they just couldn’t get over how organized she is and knowledgeable about what she is doing and why she does it.”

Alexavia arrived with a case of diaper wipes, a can of formula, four hats for the 4-month-olds, four sets of mittens, four rubber ducks, and a popcorn tub full of microwave popcorn for Aimee and Justin.

It will be a Christmas Eve to remember.

“I think we all felt that she is a true gift to everyone she comes in contact with,” said Julie Alhgren.

Bill to name post office for ‘Mac’ to be reintroduced in House

A beaming Alexavia Zetterberg sits with Ramona’s 4-month-old quadruplets, from left, Reese, Jackson, Ryan, and Kennedy.

Congressman Duncan Hunter’s legislation to name the Ramona Post Office for the late Nelson “Mac” MacWilliams will be reintroduced in the U.S. House of Representatives because it never reached the U.S. Senate floor before the new Congress took office on Jan. 3, said Hunter’s Washington, D.C., spokesman.

Hunter, who represents Ramona in the

House, introduced the bill, H.R. 4062, in February 2012, and it passed the House unanimously on Dec. 19. MacWilliams was a Ramona resident, a life member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, a field representative for Hunter, and a former executive director of Ramona Chamber of Commerce. He died in a vehicle accident on Dec. 20, 2011.

Judge orders treatment in exchange for early jail release Two Ramona residents have finished their one-year jail terms early after pleading guilty to possessing a small amount of heroin for sale.

San Diego Superior Court Judge Charles Ervin allowed Bryanna Mae Ertman, 19, and Joshua James Brown, 27, to leave jail after serv-

ing 90 and 120 days, respectively, if they were accepted to live in residential drug treatment programs, according to court records.

They were both placed on three years probation and banned from drinking or possessing alcohol for three years. They were fined $1,414 each and ordered

to pay $570 for the cost of the drug program, records show.

Additionally, they were ordered each to pay $1,127 in probation costs and $570 for a public defender.

Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputies arrestsed Ertman and Brown on Aug. 8, 2012. A third man, 19, was also arrested, but

Computer, Internet classes to start

he qualified for a deferred entry of judgment since it was his first drug arrest. The charge will be dismissed if he has no future violations.

Ertman and Brown were arrested previously on heroin possession charges, and both received deferred entry of judgment in their first prosecutions.

Basic/Intermediate Computer/Internet classes will be held Tuesday evenings from 6 to 8 in Ramona Library starting on Jan. 15 and lasting eight weeks.

The itinerary will be dependent on the skill level of those who attend.

Due to the limited number of laptops the library has, people should bring a laptop if they have one.

Hotel art gallery to host public reception

O

lde Ramona Hotel Gallery artists welcome the community to the New Year “and a new and exciting artist in our Discovery Room.”

Ramona resident Laurel Nelson’s world is one of whimsy and imagination. Her paintings recall images of childhood delight, said gallery artist and longtime Ramona resident Loretta Alfonsi.

A reception on Saturday, Jan. 12, from 3 to 5p.m. will give all a chance to meet Nelson and see her paintings, which bring

back memories long forgotten.

The gallery in Old Town Ramona at 845 Main St. is open Wednesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Gallery artists will be displaying their work as well.

“Come in and enjoy,” said Alfonsi.

More information about the cooperative gallery and the reception is at the gallery, 760-789-3682, and olderamonahotelgallery.com. Other artists are invited to future art shows.

The pets had their photo taken with Santa Claus. At left, Santa Claus sits with Rudy (Rudolph) the terrier and Nick Ford (St. Nicholas) the Doberman at Adobe Animal Hospital’s learning seminar. For information on the next seminar, call Adobe at 760-789-7090.

Vintners

g

Ramona area, said Kahle, noting that others from Ramona participated in the training held the previous year.

Afterward, participants agreed their time was wellspent.

“I’ve had some training before, but nothing like this,” said Kathy Kristian, who works at Carlsbad’s Witch Creek Winery. “I’m glad I got to do it. You really learn a lot from it; it was very informative.”

From page 12

El Cajon resident Peggy Buffo said the training was a first for her.

“I don’t own a winery, but I’m a volunteer for a lot of events,” she said.

“The key thing, I think, was learning about the IDs and also the ramifications of pouring for someone who’s underage or intoxicated.

So I would definitely recommend it to others.”

Melissa Ryan, district supervisor in the Alcoholic Beverage Control’s San

Marcos office, praised the vintners’ initiative.

“The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control is pleased that the San Diego County Vintners and Ramona Vintners Associations are taking advantage of this free and voluntary program to be responsible licensees,” said Ryan.

For information about RBSS training, call the North Inland Community Prevention Program at (858) 391-9303.

Mitt Romney stops at Ramona’s 7-Eleven Senior Activity Center The owner of Ramona’s 7-Eleven at 11th and Main streets got a huge surprise when former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney and one of his sons stopped in for purchases on Thursday, Dec. 27.

“First thing, I couldn’t believe it,” said store owner Vijay Mandania, who noted that he was able to confirm his customer’s identity when Romney handed him a credit card.

Mandania said the Romneys were traveling in a Cruise America motorhome.

“I was just excited he stopped by and got a few things and got gas,” said Mandania, adding that

Romney was very friendly and shook his hand.

Although the store owner said he thought about requesting a photo with the former presidential

nominee, he decided instead to give Romney privacy.

Do it for you, do it for those who love you!

Ramona, 2012 is officially over. With the New Year, I anticipate that many of you will be making a choice to start living your life to its fullest, and it should definitely include a healthier lifestyle, with exercise, better eating, and proper rest and recovery.

I want to revisit how fitness can be a life changing choice. At the end of 2012 I turned 35. This used to be known as middle-aged and sometimes it definitely feels that way and then some.

I want to take you back a bit, though. Let’s go back about 23

Ramona Sentinel years.

Check the date on my original membership card.

Yeah, I have it!

I can’t say I lived a deprived childhood. I had all the materialistic things I could want, but with two struggling parents I did not have consistency in the home that I strive to give my kids. Both my mother and father struggled with alcoholism and drug addiction. They both spent many years in rehab, and along with that I spent many hours in Al-Anon meetings and therapy sessions.

Some of those things really did help, but let me tell you what really helped me through this tough time — Ramona Fitness Center.

I struggled with anger and frustration because of my home life. My mother, Valerie, saw this and decided one day at a garage sale to purchase me a Joe Wieder weight set, the kind with those plastic-covered concrete weights. You know the kind.

That is where my lifelong love affair with fitness began. It was the way that I would cope with the struggles that I had at home. It was the way that I worked out my frustrations. It was the way that I learned how to be disciplined. Fitness, in fact, took me around the world, and allowed me to be in front of, and be behind the camera, working with ESPN. It took me through almost a dozen bodybuilding competitions by the age of 19. It took me

to ownership in Ramona Fitness Center.

This one happenstance event of my mother buying a used weight set at a garage sale changed my life forever.

In fact, that is our motto at Ramona Fitness Center — “Changing Lives.” Fitness really can make a radical difference in your life!

Here’s the one catch though. YOU have to take the first step. YOU have to pick up the phone and call your local gym. YOU have to get in the car and drive to that facility. YOU have to purchase the membership. YOU have to make the right choices when you’re eating. It’s discipline, it’s up to YOU. So my question for you this January 2013 is this, “Are you going to take the first step?”

Heck, no, it’s not going to be easy. It’s going to be downright difficult. It’s going to be tough waking up to go to the gym before work. It’s going to be easier to drive past the gym and go home after work. It’s going to be easier to go through the drive-through than pack a lunch.

But it is worth it! TAKE THAT STEP! Call me. I’ll help. Just call the club at 760-789-3500 and tell the staff you read this article and you’re ready to take that first step.

It’s doesn’t have to be at Ramona Fitness. You don’t even need to live in Ramona. Just start and take that step.

Do it for you, do it for those that love you!

Peter San Nicolas, Ramona Fitness Center owner, is a certified fitness professional, CrossFit Level 1 trainer, and certified golf fitness professional.

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 a 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. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 1-800-281-8219 or visit this Internet Web site www.recontrustco. com, using the file number assigned to this case TS No. 12-0078147.

Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

Remembering Jack Menotti—an original

I am only one, but I am one.

I cannot do everything, but I can do something; and what I should do and can do, by the grace of God, I will do.

Jack Menotti’s favorite poem and way of life

W

hen Jack Menotti came to Ramona High School in 1978, he had enjoyed nothing but success. He had been All CIF linebacker/center at Santa Monica High School. That was when the Southern Section stretched from San Diego to Santa Barbara.

He played college football at Loyola. He was a world class beach volleyball player. He served honorably in the Army during the Cold War and returned from Europe and earned his Bachelor’s degree at LA State.

He married the love of

his life, Gail (he called her Bella, Italian for beautiful), and became a teacher and coach. He helped turn Kearny High School into a winning program as an assistant coach and he turned Madison High School into a winning program as a head coach. While at Madison he coached an undefeated team. When he found out that one of the players on the team was ineligible, he reported the infraction to the proper authorities, prompting the San Diego Unified School District board to recognize him for his “unselfish act.”

Jack felt that he was just doing what he should do and by the grace of God did.

His talents were recognized and he moved up to the small college level at United States International University where he brought the spread offense four decades before it be-

came the rage in college football. From USIU (he often called it US-IOU), he moved to Bemidji State University in Minnesota.

Jack and Gail loved and missed California and returned in 1978 when Jack was hired by Myron Bill to be the head coach and athletic director at Ramona High School.

Ramona’s athletic department was in dire straits.

At the time, San Diego’s CIF section only had two divisions: big schools and small schools. Ramona was too big to be a small school and too small to be a big school. With an enrollment of about 400, Ramona was in a league with schools with enrollments of over 3,000. Poway had two schools and both were in Ramona’s league.

Coaches were not worried about winning as much as they were about their players getting hurt.

All of Ramona’s teams had losing records (save one league championship in track) and several went winless on many occasions. Very few wanted to

go out for football. Jack took those who did and taught them more about life than they would ever learn in any other class.

Jack had six sons. Five attended RHS and four played football. However, he treated every young man on his team like he was a son: no favors, no nepotism, just hard work.

At the time, Ramona relied on teacher/coaches.

Jack coached baseball, track and any other sport that needed a lower level coach. He hired several great teacher/coaches.

“These guys will be coaching my sons,” he said.

His sons played three sports a year, choosing football, soccer, wrestling, or baseball, were ASB officers, and all but one gained admission to a University of California campus. The one who didn't went to Stanford after being accepted to Notre Dame. His baseball coach has yet to fully forgive him. Jack believed that idol hands were the Devil’s workshop.

After his coaching career at Ramona was done, Jack coached at Mesa College after teaching a full day at RHS. Jack had a daughter and treated his female students like they were his daughter.

We lost Jack on Dec. 28.

The fourth quarter of his life was tough. He battled Alzheimer’s and the clock ran out.

His memorial service was truly a celebration of life. Not many tears and the ones that were shed were mostly tears of joy.

In life and death whenever Jack’s name came up, a smile came to one’s face and a Jack Menotti story was told.

Jack was a one of a kind, original (redundant

but that was Jack). He had elaborate plans that never worked but were carefully thought out by Jack so that only Jack could understand them.

“The people of Ramona will never appreciate all that Jack did for this community. He personified what Ramona is now thought of. When I was at Carlsbad, I couldn’t believe what odds Ramona was up against. We were the second smallest school in the league and we were almost three times bigger than Ramona. Yet they would beat us or beat us up every time we played them. I was disappointed when I came to Ramona and found out that I wouldn’t get to coach a Menotti boy because they were hell to coach against,” stated Mel Galli who became the head coach, athletic director and assistant principal at RHS. “Most Jack Menotti stories can’t be told in a family paper. The one I

a serial killer terrorizing Atlanta’s youth. Jack’s plan was to call the athletes in Atlanta and offer them a safe place to play until the serial killer was caught.

Billy asked him where they would stay. “You can take a few. Tambo can take some and I will take some. If we treat them right they will stay,” Jack said.

Jack was a member of Kiwanis. During his tenure, speakers at Kiwanis learned to duck flying sugar packets. He also would go to other Kiwanis Clubs and steal their banners so that they would have to come up to Ramona for an inter-club visit.

Jack could play the harmonica with the best of them. The one thing that Jack could not do was sing.

When Jack sang the Our Father at mass, Catholics would become former Catholics because of Jack’s loud, enthusiastic and never-in-tune voice.

Jack was a renaissance

“The people of Ramona will never appreciate all that Jack did for this community."

— Mel Galli

love was when I wrote an evaluation of his teaching performance, and with the help of the baseball coach we pretty much ripped him up. Jack just read the evaluation and knew that he had been had. So he corrected it and added everything that we left out and told me if I was going to do a job not to do it half way, but he didn’t say way,” said Mel. Bill (Billy to Jack) Clark played for Jack, coached with Jack, had Jack on his staff when he was a head coach, and was a lifelong friend.

“The first day that I met Jack was my first day of football practice at Madison High School. I called my dad and told him that my coach was a wild man.

However, after playing for him and coaching with him, I learned that everything that he did had a very good reason. There was a method to his madness. I learned a lot from Jack and not just about football. A lot of my coaching philosophy comes directly from Jack,” Billy said.

Billy’s favorite story was about the time there was

man. He was a son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, teacher, coach, altruist, and as John Bowman pointed out in his eulogy as he used quotes from William Shakespeare: “He was a man, take him for all in all, I shall not look upon his likes again.”— Hamlet act I, scene ii.S.

Bulldog basketball finishes 3rd at Tri-City tournament

By BILL TAMBURRINO

or the second straight year the Ramona Bulldogs finished third in the 16-team Tri-City Christian Holiday Basketball Tournament before dropping two non-league tilts to Carlsbad and San Pasqual.

The Dawgs go into the final week of non-league action with a 6-8 record.

The Dawgs opened the Tri-City tourney by beating an under-manned Calvary Christian Academy of Chula Vista. Calvary Christian (4-8) only suited up six players for the game. Ramona opened with a 19-3 run in the first quarter and never looked back.

Dylan Fieger outscored Calvary Christian’s entire team as he poured in 21 points. Fieger also played strong defense and had five steals in the game. Zach White scored 14 points and Ryan Heiar also tallied in double figures with 11 points.

Scott Stransky (3), Riley Hubbard (4), Marco Cobian (4), Matt Lawler (8), and Alex Rogers (4) also scored in the game. Heiar led the team with eight rebounds.

The Bulldogs beat Kern Valley High School 58-29 to advance to the semifinal game for the second year in a row. The Dawgs again got off to a fast start and outscored their foe 14-5 in the first period.

The Dawg defense limited Kern Valley (7-7) to single digit scoring in the first, third and fourth quarters.

White had the scoring honors with 13 points followed by a 12 point effort

by Fieger. Davis Windes led the team with eight rebounds as Ramona completely dominated the boards with a season high 44 rebounds. Every Bulldog on the roster had at least two rebounds. Stransky (2), Hubbard (2), Heiar (9), Fieger (2), Cobian (8), Windes (4), Lawler (4), and Rogers (4) all scored in the win.

Varsity-alumni soccer games raise $2,200 for Hallmann family

By JOE NAIMAN Ramona High School’s soccer teams preceded their return to CIF play this week with a charity game triple-header Jan. 5.

The varsity-alumni matches, featuring both the boys’ program and the girls’ players, was a fundraiser for the family of the late Gabe Hallmann, a 1997 Ramona graduate who was part of the Bulldogs’ 1996 CIF championship team.

The fundraiser included two youth teams playing in between the varsity-alumni games and raised approximately $2,200 for the Hallmann family, which

includes 4-year-old Gabby Hallmann.

“It was a nice community service event and it was for a great cause, and a bunch of members of the community came to volunteer their time,” said coach Michael Jordan, who is the boys varsity coach but played for the alumni during the boys varsity-alumni contest.

The day began with a youth soccer clinic for players ages 4-14. The clinic attracted 32 children, and Ramona’s boys and girls varsity teams both participated. Each child was paired with a varsity player.

“It was nice,” Jordan said. “Kids had a lot of fun.

Ramona High School boys and girls varsity players pose with Ramona League soccer players at a clinic the varsity teams conducted on Saturday, Jan. 5. The Bulldogs taught soccer drills and skills and then invited the league players to watch their varsity-alumni soccer games that evening.

We made a bit of money.

Really big success.”

The triple-header began with the 5 p.m. girls varsity-alumni game that

LAKE RIDGE HOME

1935 Briargate, southwest Escondido

ended in a 2-2 tie. Two Ramona FC teams, the boys under-11 and the girls under-12 squads, played between the varsity-alumni games with the U-11 boys taking a 3-0 victory.

Jordan is a 1989 Ramona High School graduate and plays with the alumni during varsity-alumni games.

That allowed the boys varsity captains to take over coaching duties.

“They had a lot of fun doing that,” Jordan said.

The starting lineup didn’t

differ much from what Jordan would have done.

“They’ve already earned, I think, the respect of their teammates,” Jordan said of his captains.

One notable change was utilizing backup goalkeeper Tony Alba in the nets for the first half, a suggestion made by starting goalie Jesse Bonilla.

“He’s at all the practices,” Jordan said of Alba.

The varsity had a 3-2 halftime lead. Bonilla shut out the alumni in the sec-

ond half, and the varsity ended the game with a 6-2 victory. At one point the score was tied at two goals apiece.

“After that the varsity guys settled into their game,” Jordan said.

Alex Medina and Alex Nastre each scored twice for the varsity. Aedan Maruna and Ricky Rodriguez had one goal apiece.

The first alumni goal was scored by Mike Garcia, who was Jordan’s junior varsity coach when Jordan played. Sebastian Bueno, who graduated from Ramona High School in 2012, scored the other alumni goal.

Jerry and Cory Asbury officiated all three games and did not charge for their services.

“That was really generous of them to come out and do that,” Jordan said.

Ramona hosts Vista in a non-league match Friday, Jan. 11. Valley League play begins Jan. 15, when the Bulldogs host Mission Vista.

Girls basketball plays tough in 51-43 loss against San Pasqual

By BILL TAMBURRINO

Coach Dan Marshall’s Bulldog girls hoopsters showed no signs of rust after a week layoff. The Lady Bulldogs played a highlytouted San Pasqual (14-2) team in a 51-43 loss.

Ramona High School outscored and outplayed the Eagles in the first half as Ramona led 12-10 after one period, and took a halftime 27-20 lead into the locker room.

The Eagles rallied in the second half and closed the gap to 38-36 going into the final eight minutes.

San Pasqual took the lead for good with 7:18 remaining in the game on a 3-point goal to make the score 40-38. The Eagles then took advantage of their superior size in the paint and won the final period by outscoring the Lady Dawgs 15-5.

Hannah Farhat led the

team in scoring as she lit up the scoreboard by sinking four 3-point goals. She never took a shot from 2-point land.

“Hannah stroked four 3-pointers and led us in scoring. We are very proud of Hannah. We couldn’t close a very tough team but we played hard and played as a team. We are very proud of the way the team played and we are getting better with every practice.

We have played a tough schedule to get ready for league play and when we have had a bad game, the team has worked on improving the next practice,” said Marshall speaking for his staff of Jim Root and Ken Scheib.

Kailey Hill contributed a pair of nines. She scored 9 points and grabbed nine rebounds. Six of her boards were on the defensive end of the court where she also had a blocked shot and

two steals.

Christina Barrameda also scored 9 points to go with her six boards, three steals and four assists.

Katherine Mauldin played tough in the paint as she grabbed nine rebounds and scored 4 points.

Julie Ward spent a lot of time on the floor diving for loose balls as she had a game high six steals and scored 4 points.

Niki Spring had a wellrounded game as she scored 5 points, grabbed three rebounds, blocked a shot, had three steals, and dished off two assists.

Kylee Scheib and Mackenzie Griffin played well on defense and both ninth graders had one rebound apiece.

Ramona has a 10-7 record as it heads to the final week of cross league play.

Ramona has the best nonleague record of any Valley League team.
