Spirit of Ida May lives on, says descendant Editor's note: Halloween seems a fitting time to share Markay Holly Schroeder's story of her pioneer grandmother, Ida May Kearney, operator of the historic Kenilworth Inn.
Presorted Standard US Postage PAID Ramona CA Permit No 136
By KAREN BRAINARD The spirit of Ramona pioneer Ida May Kearney lives on, says Markay Holly Schroeder, who met her great-grandmother only once — 42 years after she died. “I’ll never forget it. It was so powerful,” Schroeder said, still in awe of the moment. Schroeder was 23 and going through a difficult time when Ida May, who is revered in Ramona history for operating the former Kenilworth Inn, appeared at her bedside. “The message for me was that all was going to be fine,” said Schroeder. That was in 1965 but Schroeder said
she, still feels Ida May is with her. The sighting happened in the house on Third Street where her mother, the late Mary Kay Kearney Holly Pinkard, lived. Pinkard died last year and Schroeder has been finding all sorts of “treasures” in the house. One of the treasures is the apron Ida May was wearing in an old photograph and when she appeared to Schroeder in 1965. Schroeder found the apron stashed away in a box in the same bedroom where she experienced the sighting. As Schroeder tells it, she was about a week away from delivering her second child but was having some complications and was grieving the sudden loss of her father, Alanson Parker Holly. As she and her husband, Don, visited her mother, Schroeder went to the bedroom to lay down. “I had not fallen asleep. So all of a sudSee SPIRIT OF IDA MAY page 16

Two tons of trash and debris, including mattresses and tires, were handcleared from the Santa Maria Creek bed where it runs through Ramona Community Park west to Seventh Street. The project was part of Ramona Municipal Water District’s efforts to clean up the creek bed on its property to improve safety in the park and to prevent future flooding and fuel for fires. Attempts are under way to clean up the Santa Maria Creek bed in other areas of town. Ramona Community Planning

Group initiated the effort after a request from former member and longtime Ramonan Angus Tobiason. “As a coordinated effort in this community, we had a small part to play,” Ramona Fire Department/Cal Fire Battalion Chief Saul Villagomez told the water board Oct. 22 when giving his report on their portion of the cleanup. To accomplish the trash removal, water district staff worked with the sheriff’s Ramona station, Cal Fire, and the California Department of Corrections, which provided crews from the Puerta La Cruz Conservation Camp for the manual labor. “We had 17 folks on this particular crew. It’s an all female crew out of Warner Springs,” Villagomez explained. The battalion chief said the crews worked on each side of the creek and down the center, bagging trash and pulling out debris that included shopping carts, crates, electronic parts, and metal objects. “How it got there, we can only imagine,” Villagomez said. The crews began after the sheriff’s department conducted sweeps of the creek bed in mid-October. A sweep on Oct. 11 led to the arrests of a man and a woman, suspected of illegally camping in the creek See CREEK CLEANUP page 6

Following a five-month investigation of graffiti incidents, three 19-year-old Ramona males were arrested, suspected of felony vandalism, the sheriff’s department reported on Oct. 25. The investigation of 131 incidents of graffiti that resulted in over $82,000 in damages in Ramona and Poway concluded the week of Oct. 7 when detectives served three search warrants on the group called Making Art Daily (MAD), said Sgt. B. Hout of the sheriff’s Ramona station. The detectives received assistance from the Poway Criminal Apprehension Team. The three suspects arrested are Cam-
eron Benge, Skylar Paschke and Michael Davis, Hout said. The investigation utilized a graffiti tracking database called Graffiti Tracker, which assists detectives by documenting graffiti and identifying suspects. MAD members targeted businesses, libraries, churches, schools and private properties, said Hout. The sergeant said the investigation into the tagging group as well as other tagging groups and gang-related graffiti is ongoing. Anyone with information about MAD or any other tagging group may call the Ramona substation at 760-789-9157 and speak with a detective.

Testimony starts against three Suicide Prevention Walk for Life ‘Nov. 9, it’s an important day’ charged with Hallman murder Testimony got under way Monday in a preliminary hearing for three defendants accused in the fatal stabbing of a 34-yearold former Ramona man during a fight in Chollas Creek. Michael Vincent Reyes, 30, of El Cajon, Francisco Jose Arellano, 32, of Chula Vista, and Nicole Anna Ibarra, also known as Nicole Olmos, 36, are charged with firstdegree murder in the September 2012 death of Michael Gabriel “Gabe” Hallman. Testimony was scheduled to resume Tuesday. At the end of the hearing, Judge Jeffrey Fraser will decide whether enough evidence was presented to order the defendants to stand trial. Shortly after 5:30 a.m. on Sept. 30, 2012, patrol officers responding to a re-
port of an assault in the 5000 block of Sterling Court found Hallman in front of a home in the area, suffering from stab wounds. Paramedics took him to a hospital, where he was pronounced dead about an hour later. Arellano and Reyes were each already in custody for alleged parole violations when they were re-booked in December on suspicion of murdering Hallman. San Diego police said the victim and the defendants apparently got into a fight during a social gathering of some kind. San Diego police arrested Ibarra on March 13. Hallman, a 1997 graduate of Ramona High School, was a licensed massage therapist who grew up in Ramona, but last lived in City Heights. He is survived by a young daughter.

For the record
The article titled “Car strikes student in school parking lot” in last week’s Ramona Sentinel contained errors. The student struck by a car in the Olive Peirce Middle School staff parking lot on Oct. 16 is an eighth-grader. The student suffered bruises and abrasions and was treated and released from the hospital, said a relative.
By MAUREEN ROBERTSON Nine years ago Kristina Krohne’s nephew, a 14-year-old Ramona High School student, committed suicide. Since then, she’s taken the lead in suicide prevention campaigns and was a driving force in establishing the Ramona Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Walk for Life five years ago. “That’s where my passion comes from,” she told Ramona Unified School District trustees at their October meeting. “As you all know, we did lose another student last year to suicide.” That student was an eighth-grader at Olive Peirce Middle School. The 5th Annual Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Walk for Life will be at the Ramona High School football field on Hanson Lane on Saturday, Nov. 9, from 4 to 7 p.m. Each year the community event has grown, Krohne said, thanking the district for its support. “This year we’re really excited,” she said, telling trustees that three rock bands will perform, several high school groups will participate, and Fitness Xpress will offer Zumba instruction. Miss Junior Teen California Olivia Jensen, a Ramona resident, will sing, and Ramona High’s Art Guild will be in charge of face painting. A luminary memorial is planned. Walkers will have an opportunity to decorate bags with written messages or drawings. The tea light bags will light the football

field at the walk's conclusion at sunset. Door prize drawings will be held during the free event, and food and drinks will be available for purchase. “Everyone in the community is invited,” Krohne said, noting that OPMS counselor Michelle Mauney, Trustee Kim Lasley, Palomar Health, and several mental health agencies have been involved from the beginning. Resources for children and for adults will be available. Among organizations providing information will be McAlister Institute, Aurora Behavioral Health, North County Health Services, North Inland Community Prevention Program, Vista Hill SmartCare, the sheriff’s Ramona station, and Ramona Fire Department. “Suicide is a big deal to me,” said Sonny Adams, a mechanic for the school district and the district's Classified Employee of the Year. “It’s a big thing with kids, but it’s also adults." He applauded the high school for honoring cancer survivors at the Oct. 18 football game, saying five friends have died of cancer in the past five years. “But over the years, I’ve lost more friends to suicide than to cancer,” he said. “The last friend that died is not quite a year ago, and this (Walk for Life) event is a big event. It’s huge. It means a lot to a lot of people...So thank you to Ramona High School for doing this. Nov. 9, it’s an important day.”

Ron, our Alignment/Tire and Brake specialist, weekly tip:
1
Alignment For best tire wear or to prevent premature tire wear have your alignment checked at least once a year
2
Brakes For longer brake and rotor life give yourself more breaking distance. Try not to ride your brakes when driving down hill.
3
4
Tires For longer tire life have your tires rotated every other oil change, or every 8,000 miles.
5
Suspension
For better handling or ride quality make sure your suspension is OK. Weak struts or shocks can cause longer and harder braking effort and will cause premature tire wear.
Tires
For better fuel consumption, have your air pressure checked at lease once a month and be sure to set to proper specs – they are posted on your drivers door sticker.

Woman-driven business succeeds 35 years in male-dominated field By JESSICA KING Longtime Ramona resident and businesswoman Laurann Volk is a survivor in more ways than one. Not only has she beaten breast cancer and raised two sons on her own, but she has defied the odds and kept her small business open in a male-dominated industry for 35 years and counting. Volk owns Do It Best Economizers “Old Tyme Hardware Store” at 209 10th St., where 10th meets Highway 78. The business’ landmark anniversary will be celebrated Saturday with an open house from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Residents are encouraged to stop by, enjoy refreshments and check out the business, which is also associated with Ramona Fence Co. and Hurricane & Poway Fence Co. Guests at the open house will be treated to food, beverages, prizes, giveaways and more. The 69-year-old Volk was introduced into the lumber, fencing and hard-

She said it started when her horses and pigs started getting loose because of bad fencing on her property. A neighbor who worked

for Hurricane Fencing offered to help her fix the fencing and little by little she learned more about the industry and met more people around town and eventually decided she wanted to open her own
lumber yard. She started with that, opening the business out of her backyard, but quickly learned everyone was not so keen on women in the industry. “Guys still to these days think that women are ‘giv-
en’ work,” said Volk, who said through the years she’s shown up to jobs and been asked, “What are you doing here?” Once she even heard from a general contractor on a big Caltrans job, “Shouldn’t you be home barefoot and pregnant?” “They made that job so tough on us,” she said. “They tried to break us and they almost did.” In another instance, she said she was the subject of a smear campaign by a local competitor, who spread lies that were later disproven, but the damage was done. All the adversity has forced Volk to change her business model through the years, moving out of the lumberyard business and more into fencing and hardware, but she never gave up. She also never stopped welcoming healthy competition. “Good competition helps one another in a small town, not fights with them,” she said, noting her intent was never to be a big hardware store like

Volk employs on average 10 to 12 people, including several young people she has mentored through the years who she proudly helped get out of bad situations. Along the way she has also been active in the Ramona Chamber of Commerce and helped with causes ranging from Ramona’s 4-H program to the town Christmas tree lighting. The chamber in 2011 awarded her with its Lifetime Achievement Award. Volk’s strong female voice has played as equal a role in her personal life as it has her professional one. The small-town girl, who grew up poor in Brookville, Ind., moved to Ramona with her thenhusband in the late 1970s and divorced shortly thereafter. She raised her two sons by herself and taught them to be self-sufficient. “I taught both my boys See ECONOMIZERS page 5

when I was raising them how to cook and clean and do your laundry,” she said. “If you’re going to get married, you don’t need to get married because you want someone to take care of you. You want to get married because you want someone to share your life with.” Both of Volk’s sons started working for her when they were 16. The younger continues to work for the business, while her older son is a Navy commander with over 20 years of service. Volk’s sons were young when she was diagnosed with breast cancer, helping
her decide that giving up on life was not an option. It’s still not an option, even though to this day she suffers from pain from implants she received. “Cancer is just like a dirty word,” she said. “You have to want to survive. You have to want to live. You have to have a reason to live and you can beat anything.” For today’s young women considering starting her own small business, Volk’s advice is simple: do your homework, work hard, be persistent and don’t let other people get you down.
Is there an eerie link between teachers and pumpkin growing contest winners, wonders Realtor Dee Martz. Ramona High School math teacher David Sojourner was last year’s winner. The winner this year is his daughter-in-law, Caroline Sojourner, a deaf and hard of hearing specialist with the Ramona Unified School District, said Martz, who sponsors the annual contest. This is Caroline Sojourner’s first year raising vegetables in her above-ground planter boxes. She grew tomatoes, squash, cucumbers and pumpkins. “Her winner weighed in at a whopping 22 pounds,” said Martz. “Her secret was good soil, water and organic pest control.” Martz presented Soujourner with the $50 prize for her efforts. Ramona resident Sam Telleson on Carol Lane provided the pumpkin seeds. Each year he grows a great patch of Atlantic Giant pumpkins, said Martz.
Caroline Sojourner is the winner in the 2013 pumpkin growing contest that her father-in-law David Sojourner won last year.
Anyone interested in competing in next year’s Pumpkin Growing Contest may call Martz at Town and Country Real Estate on 10th
and Main at 760-518-2327 for seeds and contest rules. “You don’t need a green thumb and anyone can enter,” she said.

mental laws in the 1970s began regulating what can and cannot be cleared from a waterway. He then showed an aerial shot from 1993 of the creek with flowing water and vegetation along the sides. Although the creek rarely fills with water, heavy rainfall has led to its banks overflowing. According to Beck, increased rainfall that began in 1978 and was followed by 40 inches of rain in 1980 caused the creek to flood. From 1978 to 1984, Beck said, Ramona averaged 27 inches of rain while the normal average is 14 inches.

Beck said he would like to see brush removed from the creek bed, but staff members said the district’s hands are tied by environmental agencies. “What we’ve done at this point is what we can do,” said Mike Metts, the district’s contracted engineer from Dudek Engineering. RMWD General Manager David Barnum said the district’s creek cleanup work is done for this year. Although RMWD hopes to do more next year, he said agencies such as Army Corps of Engineers and Regional Water Quality Control Board have strict regulations on clearing vegetation in navigable waterways, and if ignored can result in hefty fines. The restrictions are greater for public-owned property than for private property, said Barnum.

CO is produced whenever any fuel such as gas, oil, kerosene, wood, or charcoal is burned. If appliances that burn fuel are malfunctioning or not properly maintained, dangerous levels of CO can result. Hundreds of people die every year from CO poisoning. Having smoke alarms and CO detectors in your home is not enough. When you adjust your clocks at daylight saving time, we advise you to also change the batteries and service detectors. Maintenance tips: •Use a vacuum or brush to dust the cobwebs from your detectors. •Ensure alarms are plugged in all the way into a working outlet or, if battery operated, change the batteries with a fresh set. •Follow manufacturer recommendations and test your alarm once a month. •Have a home evacuation plan and practice with your family.

This is a good time to check smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors. Smoke Alarms Smoke alarms detect and alert people to fire in its early stages, giving them the time needed to escape the dwelling or building safely. Properly operating smoke alarms can mean the difference between life and death in a fire, cutting the risk of dying in home structure fires in half.

Guest Commentary
How does Ramona Unified spend its maintenance money? By BOB GRAEFF Ramona Unified School District Superintendent (Following is the first of a short series of articles about fiscal issues related to Ramona Unified School District.)
Q
uestions continue to emerge about how the school district uses the annual funding it receives for routine school maintenance. Many employees and community members often ask why our local facilities — some of which are more than 70 years old — are not maintained in better condition and appear to be declining in appearance. So here are the numbers. Since the 2005-06 school year, the district has received between $222,000 and $272,000 per year for the maintenance of our schools and offices. This resource has never been even close to the amount needed to adequately maintain our facilities and is not intended by the state to support districts in the upgrade, renovation, and modernization of schools. Our local maintenance expenses for last year were typical. The district spent $630,000 for salaries and benefits of our maintenance employees. We spent more than $200,000 on supplies to repair our facilities, $25,000 on new maintenance equipment, and more than $130,000 on general maintenance expenses. All together, we spent more than $985,000 on the maintenance of our schools — far more than the funding we receive. Examples of general maintenance expenses include pool maintenance at Ramona High, plumbing, light bulbs and lighting repairs, air conditioning and heating repairs, electrical supplies, repair and maintenance of fire alarms, maintenance and repairs of our cooling towers, and the servicing of hundreds of routine work orders submitted by the various school sites. Larger maintenance projects targeted last year were the purchase and installation of multiple HVAC units, wood fiber for a school playground at Mt. Woodson, repair of a sewer pit at Ramona High, construction and repair of a well tank and related pumps at Barnett, purchase of new water heaters at James Dukes, repair of a large transformer at Ramona Elementary, and the refinishing of gym floors at Ramona High and Olive Peirce. A conversation with any teacher or principal at any of our schools will reveal instantly that our maintenance staff is overwhelmed by the volume of day-to-day issues related to sticking doors and locks, vandalized walls and broken windows, leaking roofs during the rainy season, patches for asphalt, restroom repairs, installation of ceiling-mounted projectors, playground equipment, cafeteria kitchen repairs, fence repairs, and more. Some observers may recall that our school board has routinely “flexed” or absorbed the entire maintenance budget into the General Fund for the past five years — along with dozens of other restricted funding accounts. Prior to 2008-09 and “flexibility,” the district was also required to commit 3 percent of its General Fund towards maintenance. For Ramona, this requirement was roughly equal to an additional $1.5 million. By flexing the state’s meager contribution of $250,000, the district was exempted from making the larger 3 percent match. While it is true, then, that all of the state’s maintenance funds still go toward district maintenance support, the district no longer allocates an additional $1.5 million. Even though we spent $700,000 more than we received for routine school maintenance issues last year, we were not able to purchase a single new roof, resurface a playground, replace aging carpeting, paint a school, add energyefficient windows, replace aging relocatable classrooms, upgrade science classrooms, or modernize facilities. Do our facilities need additional maintenance and repair? Absolutely. Could we improve the general appearance of our schools and improve the exterior of the district office? Of course. But the funding we receive from Sacramento for maintenance is already spent three times over and we hesitate to reduce more staffing and cut employee salaries further to pay for the additional upkeep of our buildings. Clearly, additional funding sources are needed to maintain our local schools.
Sentinel Reader Opinion Let citizens talk about south bypass
Supervisor Jacob, A few weeks ago, I copied you on a letter I sent to Kristal Feilen asking why a concerned citizen was not able to comment on one of the items on your Revitalization Matrix list, the Ramona South Bypass. I have attended a number of your past meetings and spoke up on the destructive South Bypass plan and was told by you that the Revitalization Meeting was not a venue for public comments by concerned citizens. Other than a few past and current Ramona planning group chairpersons and members, nobody wants the South Bypass.
Currently, your Department of Public Works is working on plans for one of the projects within the South Bypass Plan, namely the Dye Road ExtensionPhase I. This project will cost over $10 million. The existing roadway we Ramonans are using is sufficient, but the county keeps plodding on only because a few ill-advised Ramona Community Planning Group members feel too embarrassed to ask the county to stop and not spend any further money on the South Bypass. There is not one person in this county who will debate the merits of the Dye Road Extension with me and in the meantime, a new road, costing over

$10 million may get built. To add insult to injury, this new road will route drivers closer to the ugly solar farm nobody wanted in Ramona. I think you are making a big mistake not letting concerned citizens speak on any of the items. You can think about that when Carol Fowler, who is the champion of the SouthBypass, gives you her update on this item Nov. 20. Soon, I and a few concerned Ramona citizens will be visiting with all the merchants on Main Street and ask them to help stop this bypass mistake. They will do it because they know their businesses will fail if their traffic bypasses their front doors. Additionally, can you even imagine the uproar in Ramona when and if Ramonans see a South Bypass cut through the heart of our Valley of the Sun?

Last week's cartoon insults hardworking federal employees The cartoon in last week’s Sentinel concerning federal employees is highly insulting. None of these people asked to be furloughed. They have already had weeks with a day’s furlough each week. Do you think they wanted their mortgages and bills paid late, their credit possibly ruined? San Diego could not survive without the military machine. Federal employees here are the backbone of the Navy. Sailors do not design weapons and defense systems. Federal employees do. Did the artist even think that there are many federal employees who live in Ramona? The cartoon shows nothing but ignorance and disrespect for hardworking people who couldn’t work while politicians picked their noses. Paula Riddle Ramona
Book about Cedar fire gives detailed account of experiences I just read “The Fire Outside My Window” by Sandra Millers Younger,
and I highly recommend this book to everyone living in Ramona and surrounding areas. Sandra and her husband lost their home in the Cedar fire of 2003. In the book, she writes about the terrifying experience escaping from that fire. Probably to understand how and why the Cedar fire was so destructive — burning her home and over 2,000 other homes — she interviewed fire officials, firefighters, and people who were in the path of the fire, resulting in a comprehensive picture of the Cedar fire, which many in Ramona can relate to. From her detailed account of individual experiences, we better appreciate the extent of their tragedies. She also included Sergio Martinez, the man who started the Cedar Fire, as one of the casualties of the fire, as she writes: "Bob and I could look forward to rebuilding our lives. Martinez has to live his life knowing his actions had led to immeasurable loss and tragedy.” And, “I don’t know if my forgiving him helped him heal. I only know that it helped me.” Tetsuo Matsui Ramona

Bella Benefit concert planned for Sunday in Scripps Ranch A benefit concert named for 5-year-old Bella Noble who died in a tragic accident will be held Sunday, Nov. 3, to help the kindergartner’s family pay for medical, air ambulance and funeral expenses. The Ramona girl died Oct. 17 when she was accidentally run over by her mother’s van after she ran behind it to open a driveway gate while her
mother was backing up at a friend’s house on Carnation Avenue. Friends of the family said Bella, the daughter of Sheri and Bill Noble, loved to sing and dance so they organized the Bella Benefit. The benefit will be held from noon to 4 p.m. at Hoyt Park in Scripps Ranch and all ages are welcome. Entertainment will include The Soul Persuaders,
The Mighty Untouchables, The Heroes, Firefly, Sirens Crush, The Pelicans, Gary Hyde, Gary Nieves, and other special guests. Suggested donation is $10 per adult but organizers say more is welcome. Those attending should bring a blanket or low-rise chair for seating and can bring a picnic-style lunch. More information is at bellabenefit.com.

A man accused of using a hatchet to damage a stranger’s home in Ramona, then turning the weapon a neighbor and his vehicle, pleaded not guilty to five charges, including vandalism and assault with a deadly weapon. Devin Michael Jones, 23, was ordered held in lieu of $75,000 bail. According to the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, the non-injury fracas began in the 600 block of B Street about 6 a.m. last Thursday. A resident went outside to investigate what sounded like someone pounding on the outside of his house and was confronted by a combative man he didn’t
know. An argument ensued, prompting a neighbor to threaten to call 911 if the disturbance continued, sheriff’s Sgt. Kurt Torsak said. The aggressor responded by charging him, clutching a hatchet, the sergeant said. The victim fled, got into his truck and locked it as the assailant whacked on the driver’s side door and shouted profanities for a time, then ran off, Torsak said. Deputies sealed off the area and searched it, eventually finding and arresting the suspect, who was identified as Jones. Investigators later learned an air-conditioning unit, exterior wall and
garage door at the home of the person initially targeted was bashed, dented and smashed. “The damage appeared to have been caused by a hatchet,” the sergeant said. In addition to two counts of assault and one count of felony vandalism, Jones is charged with trying to dissuade a victim from reporting a crime and a misdemeanor count of being under the influence. He faces five years and eight months in prison if convicted, said Deputy District Attorney Andy Aguilar. Judge Charles Ervin set a readiness conference for Nov. 7 and a preliminary hearing for Nov. 12.

Russel J. Sielaff, longtime Ramona resident, passed away August 4, 2013, in Castle Rock, Colorado. Russ “Pappy” Sielaff was a very accomplished man with a big heart. Pappy served as a Lieutenant in the United States Seabees during World War II. After the war, he was an engineer for Illinois Bell Telephone Company. A great family man and community leader, Pappy would tell you that his passion was volunteering. For 20 years he was a classroom helper at James Dukes and Barnett elementary schools. He was the recipient of the California State School Volunteer of the year award. Pappy was active in the Boy Scouts throughout his life. In Ramona, he organized and led a mentally challenged Boy Scout troop, the first in the nation. Pappy will also be remembered as the Ramona Santa.

County to streamline licensing for farmers markets Libraries may offer space to assist veterans County staffers will work with the sheriff’s department and San Diego County Farm Bureau to streamline the licensing process in unincorporated areas for farmers markets under a plan approved the San Diego County Board of Supervisors. According to Supervi-
sor Dianne Jacob, farmers markets began sprouting up in unincorporated areas after the supervisors passed zoning amendments about five years ago. While the market operators are certified through the county agriculture commissioner, many of the individual vendors aren’t, so they have to obtain a solicitor’s license, a process enforced by the sheriff’s department, she said at the board meeting last Tuesday. Jacob said the current method is “time-intensive and onerous.” One solution could be to have the certification of the farmer’s market managers cover the individual vendors, she said. “Operators and managers of farmers markets go to great lengths to provide a safe and enjoyable experience, and they have a checklist, basically, of what the vendors at these markets have to do,” Jacob said. “So, as a county, I believe we should work to
leverage their knowledge and the practices they already have in place to ensure that farmers markets remain safe for the public and continue to thrive.” Certified farmers markets in unincorporated areas of the county are: •Ramona Certified Farmers Market, 1855 Main St., Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.; •Alpine Certified Farmers Market, 1347 Tavern Road, Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.; •Marketplace at Alpine Certified Farmers Market, 2442 Alpine Blvd., Fridays from 3 to 7 p.m.; •Welk Certified Farmers Market, 8860 Lawrence Welk Drive, Mondays from 3 to 7 p.m.; •Fallbrook Certified Farmers Market, 102 S. Main St., Fridays and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.; and •Warner Springs Certified Farmers Market, 30951 Highway 79, Thursdays from 3 to 6 p.m. Numerous other farmers markets, certified and

not, operate within the incorporated cities in the region. “The agriculture economy is booming in this county, and it is a major industry,” Jacob said. Also at the meeting, the board voted to give staffers about four months to look into using county library
Since 1989 the friendly people at Richardson Recycling have enjoyed serving Ramona as a state certified redemption center, buying back all containers with the “CA CASH REFUND” on the label. As a metal scrap yard, they also buy iron and the non ferrous metals such as aluminum, copper, brass, stainless, lead and such items as auto radiators, rims, batteries and bumpers. We even buy white goods (appliance like water heaters, refrigerators, freezers, washers and dryers). For a $10 fee, your old appliance will be picked up from your driveway.
branches to extend outreach efforts to the region’s 244,000 military veterans. The county has nine Veterans Services offices that help former armed forces members obtain benefits. Jacob said the county could also offer Veterans Services Office space in the 34 branch libraries.
“Putting volunteer veterans service advocates in our county libraries on a part-time basis will significantly expand the locations and opportunities for our veterans to get the services they need in an area of the county that is more convenient for them,” she said.

Where are they now?
Popular Science names Ramona grad one of ‘The Brilliant Ten’ Editor’s Note: This is one in the Sentinel’s “Where Are They Now?” series about Ramona graduates—where they are and what they are doing. By KAREN BRAINARD A 1996 Ramona High School graduate has been selected as one of the 10 brightest young scientists and engineers throughout the country by Popular Science magazine. David Schmale III, an associate professor of plant pathology, physiology, and weed science at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, is featured in the magazine’s October issue as one of “The Brilliant Ten.” “It’s an exciting time,” said Schmale, who lives in Blacksburg, Va., not far from the university’s campus. Schmale said he and his wife, Jessica (Jones) Schmale, also a 1996 RHS graduate, were sitting on

the patio of an Italian restaurant, planning their annual trip to San Diego to visit family, when he received news that he had been selected. “I knew that Virginia Tech had submitted my nomination,” he said, adding that hundreds of nominations are submitted before the publication creates a short list. The honor recognizes
Schmale’s achievements tracking airborne microorganisms with drones. The unmanned aerial vehicles can show how pathogens of plants, domestic animals and humans can be transported over long distances in the atmosphere. “They can be used to help predict potential outbreaks of human and animal diseases, and even help farmers time their ap-

plication of pesticides to thwart crop destruction,” Schmale said in a news release from Virginia Tech. He and his team discovered that dangerous microorganisms are transported across cities, states and countries by surfing invisible atmospheric waves. When his drones collected strains of a fungus that caused a devastating disease of wheat and produced dangerous toxins that exceeded U.S. food safety thresholds, his work was published in the journal Aerobiologia. “David is a tremendous innovator who is advancing our knowledge of food safety and biosecurity by using new research tools that examine previously uncharted regions,” stated Elizabeth Grabau, head of the Department of Plant Pathology, Physiology and Weed Science. Schmale will be continuing his research next year in France on a yearlong sabbatical where he will explore how microorganisms can modulate
weather — “not only create weather but predict weather,” he said. He and Jessica and their two daughters, ages 5 and 2, will leave for Avignon around Christmas, he said. Jessica, daughter of Jon and Jeanie Jones of Ramona and an advanced instructor for Virginia Tech’s Department of Mathematics, will work remotely on a mathematics project for the university. Although the two graduated the same year from Ramona High and were acquaintances, they did not start dating until they were in graduate school thousands of miles apart — she at California State University San Marcos and he at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. As Schmale explained it, the long-distance romance came about when their families evacuated San Diego Country Estates during the 2003 Cedar Creek fire and found themselves at a church talking about their kids. “I had a crush on my wife since third grade,” Schmale admitted. Upon graduating from Ramona High as salutatorian, and with a music background, Schmale entered University of California Davis as a pre-med student. But he didn’t enjoy pre-med. When he took a botany course and the professor talked about a strange group of people who called themselves plant pathologists, he looked into it and sought a job in the lab of Professor
Thomas Gordon. “I decided this would be the career for me,” Schmale said. “I wanted to be a plant doctor instead of a medical doctor.” Schmale, who has been teaching at Virginia Tech for eight years, said his next exciting moment will be when he speaks at the Nov. 9 TEDxVirginaTech Lab, which draws “a very large audience.” The university describes the event as one that features people who think “beyond borders.” The title of Schmale’s talk is “Drone-ing for life in the atmosphere.” Working in the academic field appears to run in the genes. Schmale’s father, David Schmale Sr. (married to Sandy Schmale), retired as a teacher from Olive Peirce Middle School, and his mother, Denise Truett (married to Don Truett), retired from Barnett Elementary School. Both couples live in Ramona. Schmale’s sister, Rachel (Schmale) Friedman, a 1983 RHS grad, teaches psychology at North Park University in Chicago. She received her undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley, and Ph.D. from Purdue University. “I think sometimes people sell Ramona short academically,” said David Schmale Sr. “I think Ramona is a perfect place to raise kids.” Readers with the name of a Ramona graduate for the “Where Are They Now?” series may email maureen@ramonasentinel. com or call 760-789-1350.

Meet a real ghost hunter on Halloween Eve Sally Richards, author of “Ghosthunting in Southern California,” will share her tales of the region’s most haunted locations on Halloween Eve. Richards, who joined paranormal teams to investigate the history, myths, and legends of about 30 locations open to the public, will be in Unicorn Books and Gifts, 738 Main St., at 6 p.m. Oct. 30. Her talk will be accompanied by a slide show of the evidence she and others have found with high-tech equipment “that is proof positive that there is life after death and we can communicate with those beyond death’s veil,” states an announcement of her Unicorn visit.
After the event, attendees are invited to join the car caravan to the Julian Jail, where the author will demonstrate how to investigate a location. They are encouraged to bring a tape recorder and camera to capture their own evidence. Richards is the great-great-grandaughter of an Apache medicine woman from the White Mountain tribe in Arizona and the child of two engineers. She was raised in Hawaii where she said she learned at an early age there are spirits all around. She has worked in the publishing industry for 25 years and published approximately 4,000 articles on a variety of subjects, including the subject of grief.

Haircuts benefit Ramona High band program By KATHY KUBIAK Bella Mia Salon & Spa is hosting the third annual “Classic Cuts” Haircut Fundraiser in support of the Ramona High School Royal Alliance Band & Color Guard. “The RHS band is a program that is severely underfunded, and we wanted to support a program that we felt could really use some community support,” said Linda Hall, owner of Bella Mia. “As a small business owner, I challenge other small businesses in Ramona to step up to the plate and support worthy local programs such as the RHS band.

Spirit of Ida May
den Ida May came to me. I was not afraid, but I said, ‘It’s a ghost,’” Schroeder remembered with a catch in her throat. “She came and she was all in white, completely in white with the apron. “She was just absolutely golden. All around her hair, it was golden. Her eyes just popped out, beautiful eyes.”
Standing in the room where she saw a vision of her great-grandmother, Ida May Kearney, Markay Holly Schroeder holds the apron Ida May was wearing.
From page 1
Ida May’s smile was “angel-like,” she added, and the only dark item on her were her black shoes. Schroeder called her mother and husband to the room but as soon as they walked in, Ida May dissipated. "I said, ‘There’s a ghost, there’s an angel.’” Schroeder had never seen a picture of Ida May but when she told her mother that the ghost had beautiful eyes and an angel-like smile, Pinkard immediately said it was Ida May. A week to 10 days later, Schroeder said she gave birth to son Michael and everything went fine. Recently, Schroeder said, her sister, Lancey Wilson, came across writings by their mother that referred to Ida May wearing all white clothing. “My Great-Grandmother Ida May was a lovable, beautiful soul who was loved by so many,” said Schroeder. According to family history, Ida May was “a tiny 4’9” 90-pound bundle of energy” and was “the epitome of a woman ahead of her time.” With the help of her two sons, Ida May established a booming hotel and restaurant business at the two-story Kenilworth Inn at Eighth and Main streets, according to the
family. She wore the apron as she greeted guests to the inn. Ida May died in April 1923, and the Kenilworth Inn burned to the ground in September 1943. Schroeder, who has a business, Markay’s Wearable Art that specializes in jewelry, said she has been told that she has Ida May’s entrepreneurial spirit. Meeting Ida May was not the only time Schroeder experienced an unexplained phenomenon. Later in life, Schroeder, now 71, lived in an apartment in Pyne Castle in Laguna Beach. Shortly after she moved in, she was vacuuming and the door to the hallway opened. She thought it was her friend, Christine, who also lived there, but Schroeder didn’t see anyone. She did see the door on the other side of the room swing-

known to check out new residents. Another time at the apartment, Schroeder was preparing to have people over for dinner and put out four plates. She left the room and when she came back, there were only three plates. She never found the missing plate. Schroeder is still close to her childhood friend Donna Edens, who has a company called Innersource and a book titled “Energy Medicine.” When one of Edens’ practitioners visited the apartment, Schroeder said the door opened and the practi-

tioner said she could feel and experience the maid. Special gifts have also run on Schroeder’s father’s side as her grandmother, Mabel Barber Holly, a member of the Christian Science Church, was a healer and went to Indian reservations to heal babies, Schroeder said. She was compensated with Indian baskets. Schroeder, who now lives in Encinitas, said she believes the energy from Ida May “and my grandmother Mabel and others close to me in my family are with me even though they’re on the other side. I don’t believe there’s any separation.”

Mossers choose Old Town Ramona for their third Subway franchise By KAREN BRAINARD

Subway owners Wayne and Lara Mosser stand behind the counter of their new location in Old Town with Assistant Manager Tyler Fink, left, and lead employee Hugo Corona. Both employees worked in the couple’s Subway on the west end of town.
Choose Care You Can Trust.
Subway owners Lara and Wayne Mosser will celebrate the grand opening of their new location in Old Town on Nov. 1 and 2. The Mossers, who live in Ramona, said they decided to open a franchise on the east side of town to take pressure off their other store at the west end. “Mainly to have better customer service because we are so busy over there,” explained Lara Mosser, noting that sometimes they lost customers because they were so crowded during the lunchtime rush.
The new store at 649 Main St. opened Oct. 9, and Wayne said they already have seen an increase in business. The new location offers the same menu as their Subway in the Kmart shopping center. The only difference is there is no drive-
through, said Lara. The new store’s grand opening will offer “buy any 6-inch sub and get one for 99 cents” from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday and Saturday. In addition to the two Ramona stores, the couple has a Subway in Valley Center.

Two drivers vying for right of way on SR-67
send bicyclist to hospital with severe injuries A collision between two drivers struggling for the right of way on northbound state Route 67 in Poway on Saturday sent one of the vehicles into the bicycle lane where it struck a rider, a sheriff’s deputy said. The drivers of a Volvo S 60 and a Dodge Ram 3500 collided about 9:45 a.m. where state Route 67 transitions from two lanes to one north of Poway Road, sheriff’s Deputy Aaron Meleen said. He did not say
which of the drivers would have had the right of way. The passenger side of the Volvo bumped the driver’s side of the Dodge, which then veered into the bicycle lane on the right side of the road and struck the bicyclist, Meleen said. The bicyclist was taken to Palomar Medical Center to be treated for severe injuries, Meleen said. Meleen asked anyone who saw the crash to call 858-513-2820.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same 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
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 same 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 (714) 573-1965 or visit this Internet Web site www.priorityposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 13-50203. 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.

Water authority officials update water district on pending lawsuit By KAREN BRAINARD A trial date of Dec. 17 has been set for San Diego County Water Authority’s (CWA) lawsuit against Los Angeles-based water wholesaler Metropolitan Water District, CWA officials told Ramona’s water board during a recent presentation. CWA, Ramona Municipal Water District’s sole supplier of water, purchases 46 percent of its water from the Met. That percentage has gradually decreased since 1991 as the water authority continues to diversify its water sources to reduce reliance on the Met. Tom Wornham, chair of the CWA Board, and Maureen Stapleton, CWA general manager, gave a presentation at RMWD’s Oct. 22 meeting on water supply reliability in the county, the long-term cost impacts, and an update on its lawsuit against the Met. CWA, which filed a
legal challenge in 2010, alleges that it is being overcharged by Metropolitan. The water authority claims that the Met improperly classifies hundreds of millions of dollars in its water supply costs as transportation costs, which are then borne by CWA. Those costs are then passed on to CWA’s 26 member agencies that include Ramona. According to CWA, if it wins the lawsuit, its member agencies could see a refund. Stapleton said they believe CWA’s transportation charges are subsidizing Orange County water. “We’re very happy to have this...come to a trial date,” said Stapleton. The trial will be in Sacramento. Before the CWA presentation, Darrell Beck, RMWD Board president, gave a brief history of Ramona’s water district.
State fire fee critic says pay but protest Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association encourages property owners who receive their annual state fire fee bills this fall to protest the fee when paying. The annual $150 fire fee is the focus of a classaction lawsuit from the as-
sociation, which calls it an unconstitutional tax. The association said that, due to information from a Cal Fire representative, it is recommending property owners send in a Petition for Redetermination when paying each
annual bill. According to the association, if it wins the lawsuit the court may order refunds. To qualify for a refund, those billed must have paid and filed a Petition for Redetermination. More information is at firetaxprotest.org.

Girls tennis wins Valley League championship By BILL TAMBURRINO Coach Matt McCormick’s Bulldog girls tennis team defended its Valley League Championship by beating Del Norte High School in a classic battle on the courts last Tuesday. The Lady Bulldogs displayed all of the qualities that justify high school athletics. They used power, finesse, resilience, fortitude, strategy, teamwork and grit. It got down to the third tiebreaker to determine the match, championship and seeding in the upcom-
ing team CIF playoffs. At the end of regulation, the match was tied 9-9. The first tiebreaker is the number of games won. Both teams won 69 games. The next tiebreaker is doubles sets won. Ramona won six doubles sets to Del Norte’s three so Ramona won the Oct. 22 match. If two teams tie for a league championship, the team that won the most recent match is declared champion for seeding purposes. Hence, the Ramona girls tennis team won the 2013 Valley League championship, got the No. 5 seed
in the Division II CIF team playoffs, and received a home match at Riviera Oaks Resort and Racquet Club against Hilltop High School. “We saw patterns in Del Norte’s positioning and strategy the first time we played them and we worked on them the last two weeks. The girls played their best tennis of the season when it really counted. They wanted to win the championship and the seniors really wanted to go out as league champions for the second straight year,” said McCor-
Varsity football's winning streak halted by Pirates By BILL TAMBURRINO The Oceanside Pirates halted Ramona’s football win streak at seven as the Pirates beat the Bulldogs 42-0 at the Dawg Pound. The Dawgs must put that loss behind them as they play Torrey Pines on the road for the Palomar League championship on Friday. “This will be Torrey Pines’ last league game. If they beat us they will be undefeated in league play and champions. If
we beat them we will still have one league game left. Even if we lose that game (to Westview) we will have beaten Torrey Pines in head to head competition. So this week we play for a Palomar League Championship,” explained coach Damon Baldwin. Oceanside’s defense was the dominant force in the game. The Pirate defense forced four interceptions and sacked quarterback Marco Cobian six times. Cobian finished the game hitting on three

of 12 passes for 43 yards. Nathan Cherek, Tanner Williams and Matt Lawler caught one pass apiece. The Bulldog offense had 184 total yards as five rushers ran for 141 yards. Brandon Gansch led the Bulldogs with 65 yards on 13 carries. His longest run was a 32-yard jaunt up the middle of the Pirate defense. Nathan Cherek had six carries for 41 yards. Justin Villagrana had a 25yard run. Tanner “T-Bone” Williams had two carries for five yards. Cobian had one positive run but ended up with negative yardage due to the six sacks. The closest Ramona came to scoring was on the final play of the first half when Tyler Vargas’ 50yard field goal attempt hit the crossbar. Oceanside’s offense took advantage of Ramona’s aggressive defense. The Pirates used “trick plays” to score its first two touchdowns. The Pirates’ first score came on a halfback pass. Ramona’s defense came up quickly to stop the run and Nikko Mageo hit a wide-open Mikah Holder for a 61-yard TD. See FOOTBALL on page 25
mick. “Jessica Failla put on another amazing display of complete domination winning all three of her sets by landslides,” he said. “Megan Douglass and Hanna Kent both played tough and picked up two valuable games apiece,” McCormick said when summing up the singles action. The doubles teams were the biggest difference in the championship match. Lauren Dunker and Rebecca Vaca won all three sets but it took a gallant come-from-behind victory in their second match to set the tone for the match. Trailing 0-3 and 4-5, Dunker and Vaca won the last two sets on the final point of each set. That changed the momentum. Cassidy Owens and Danielle Vizcarra dominated their opponents in all three sets to pick up 3 team points.

Bulldog volleyball sweeps Patriots, falls to Nighthawks By JOE NAIMAN After 17 consecutive matches on the road, Ramona High School’s girls volleyball team had a home contest and beat Orange Glen in a three-game sweep. The home contest on Oct. 23 followed the Bulldogs’ two road nonleague matches, four road Valley League contests, and 11 neutral-site tournament matches. The Bulldogs defeated the Patriots in 25-4, 25-7, and 25-7 games. “We were very happy with the consistency we showed in that match,” said Coach Connie Halfaker. “We just really were very focused and error-free and did a good job of taking care of business the way we wanted to.” The match’s statistics indicate that the large margin of victory was due to
Ramona’s offensive success rather than to Orange Glen hitting errors. Callie Guasti had 10 kills and also had three blocks. Sammy Shupe provided nine serving aces, along with six digs and 14 assists, and Katie Flinn added seven aces. Sydney Hickle contributed five digs. “We made very few errors, and we were in control very consistently throughout the match,” Halfaker said. “We created problems for them with our serves.” The Bulldogs weren’t as successful Oct. 25 at home against Del Norte, as the Nighthawks prevailed in the 25-18, 25-19, 25-14 match. “We didn’t make a lot of mistakes, but they were very clean and they were clicking on all cylinders,” Halfaker said. “We were hoping to
be more of an aggressive force and really push the match,” said the coach. “We played well, but we didn’t quite have a really aggressive match against Del Norte.” The Bulldogs had implemented a rotation defense in response to Del Norte’s Oct. 9 league victory. “We played well, and the new defense handled why they beat us last time,” Halfaker said. “It did correct what happened last time, but we just weren’t quite as aggressive as we needed to be to create points for ourselves.” The loss to Del Norte left Ramona with a 3-3 league record and a 17-9 overall mark. On Thursday the Bulldogs host Oceanside in a Valley League match. Senior Night for Ramona will be Nov. 6 when the Bulldogs face Mission Vista.

Ramona teen aims for 2016 Olympic archery team By KAREN BRAINARD With her sights set on a target, Ramona teenager Anna Miscione is aiming to compete on the U.S.A. archery team for the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro. “I’m trying hard for it,” said the 15-year-old who is ranked third in the nation in the Cadet (17 years old and younger) Recurve Division. Less than two weeks ago, she returned from Wuxi, China, where she competed on the Cadet U.S. Archery Team at the World Archery Youth Championships. Individually, Miscione ranked seventh in the world in the cadet division while her team ranked eighth. In her division, 85 archers competed from 39 different countries. “I had a great time meeting people internationally,” said the Ramona teen. “I really liked our team and I think we did really well.” To win one of the three spots on the U.S. team, Miscione competed against 56 girls from across the U.S., said her mom, Lisa Miscione. The 15-year-old, who used to do Irish dancing, took up archery after she attended Whispering Winds Summer Camp when she was in third grade.
Anna Miscione practices her recurve archery at home on an 80-centimeter target. The 15-year-old is ranked third in the nation in the cadet division.

“We just did it as an activity,” she said. “I think I liked it because it was different.” At age 9, she was already a competitive archer. She focuses on recurve archery. “It’s the only type of bow shot in the Olympics,” she said of the recurve bow. Over the years, she has increased the weight of the bow’s limbs, which increases the speed of the arrow, she explained. The faster the speed, the less chance for wind to affect the arrow’s course. A sophomore at Cathedral Catholic High School, Miscione practices her archery about six days a week yearround. She trains at the Olympic training center in Chula Vista, works with a coach at the Morley Field Sports Complex in Balboa Park, and practices at home. She describes archery as more of a mental sport. “You have to stay calm,” she said. “You have to just clear your mind.” In competition Miscione will shoot from distances of 30, 40, 50 and 60 meters with the two longer distances using a target of 122 centimeters and the shorter distances focused on an 80-centimeter target. Where she hits on the target determines her points with 10 in the center as the perfect score. Hitting 144 arrows in a competition, a perfect score is 1,440. In China, Miscione shot a score of 1,283. As Miscione works toward her goal of making the Olympic team, she will serve as a member of the 2014 U.S. Archery Cadet Team and continue to compete in tournaments, which is how she achieves her ranking. She’s not the only archer in her family now — her father, Mark, took up the sport after she started but shoots a compound bow. “It’s very popular these days,” Lisa Miscione said of the sport.

The Pirates’ second score came on a reverse. Again, Ramona hustled to stop a sweep and the initial ball carrier handed off to Holder who went untouched for a TD. Both of Oceanside’s first two touchdowns came after Ramona turnovers. Travis Kerchner again led the Bulldog defense as he recorded 11 tackles. Garrett Binkley made an acrobatic interception on Ramona’s three yard line to stop a Pirate drive. “I am not happy with the loss but if you would have told me in the beginning of the year that we would be g

After hitting several arrows from a distance of 30 meters, Anna Miscione explains the point system where 10 is a perfect score in the center of the target.
7-1 with our schedule going into the league championship game, I would have taken it. Torrey’s only two losses came from teams in the top five in the county — San Pasqual and Cathedral Catholic. It should be a very physical game,” said Baldwin. The Bulldogs will not only play for a league championship but a high seed and two home games in the Division I playoffs Friday. It will be Torrey Pines’ Senior Night so a big crowd is expected. JV kicks off at 4:30 p.m. and varsity starts at 7 p.m.

doubles teams very tough. “Caroline and Alyssa battled all day long and came close to upsetting their two best doubles teams, but more importantly they earned 11 games which really helped when the match was decided by the third tiebreaker,” said McCormick. Lopresti and Virgilio were the last set to play and both teams took sides on opposite ends of their court. Parents, fans, grandparents, two former Lady Bulldog coaches, and a member of the first Lady Bulldog tennis team to win a match were all on hand for the
final set. “This is the second time this year we have won a tiebreaker. This was the closest and most exciting high school match I have ever seen. The victory and championship was truly tribute to all of the hard work the young ladies have put in this season,” McCormick said. The coach extended his thanks to “the girls, their families, the Ramona tennis community, Riviera Oaks Resort and Racquet Club and especially our awesome athletic director, Damon Baldwin, for all they have done to contribute to this championship season.”

Water Dawgs beat Nighthawks, win 3 games at San Diego Open By JOE NAIMAN Ramona High School’s boys water polo team improved its Valley League record to 3-1 with an Oct. 23 win at Del Norte. A 3-2 record in the Oct. 24-26 San Diego Open tournament allowed the Bulldogs to even their overall season record, which stood at 12-12 following the tournament’s conclusion. “All in all the team played really strong,” said Coach Donnie Williams. In the league match, the Nighthawks had a 2-1 advantage after the first period, but the score was 4-4 at halftime. The score was 5-5 entering the fourth period and 6-6 until Ramona’s Jesse Reiling scored on a counterattack with 2-1/2 minutes left. The Bulldogs held on for the 7-6 victory. “It was closely fought all the way through,” said Williams. “I thought it was a pretty evenly matched game for the most part.”
The winning goal was Reiling’s third score of the game. Garrett Klem added two goals while Spencer Schwegler and Cory Davison put a shot apiece into the net. Reiling, Vinnie Talento, and Levi Vermeulen each had one assist. Reiling also had three steals with Vermeulen and Wyatt Jeffers each recording two steals. Goalie Jack Sundberg also had two steals along with four saves during his two quarters in the nets while goalie Taylor Holas had three saves and a steal. Davison and Thomas Abbott each had a field block. Ramona began the San Diego Open with two Oct. 24 games at Valhalla High School. The first was a 10-9 overtime win over Mercer Island, which made the trip from Washington. Ramona had a 4-0 firstquarter lead, although the Islanders scored six of the next seven goals for a 6-5 advantage. A Bulldogs’ score created a halftime tie. Mercer Island led 8-7
after three periods before regulation ended with a 9-9 tie score. Reiling scored the winning goal with eight seconds left in overtime. Ramona’s second Oct. 24 match was a 14-7 loss to Torrey Pines. The Falcons had a 3-2 lead after one quarter and an 8-4 cushion after halftime. Torrey Pines led 12-5 after three periods. “The third quarter they kind of blew it out on us,” Williams said.

goalkeepers have shown leadership in recent games. “I can’t say enough about how the goalies have progressed,” Williams said. Ramona returned to Valhalla for two Oct. 26 games. The first was a 12-11 victory over San Pasqual. The Bulldogs ended the tournament against Serra, which has won the past two CIF Division II championships. Reiling and Vermeulen scored the game’s first two
goals before a goal in the final minute of the first period put the Conquistadors on the scoreboard. The game was tied 3-3 at halftime, but Ramona didn’t score in the second half. Serra led 5-3 after three quarters and won by a 6-3 margin. Friday will be Senior Night for the Bulldogs, who will host San Marcos. Ramona’s regular season finale Nov. 5 at Rancho Bernardo is a non-league game but involves two teams that are in Division II for CIF playoff purposes.

School on Oct. 25. The Bulldogs were on the preferred end of the 15-6 final score. Reiling scored six times against the Cougars, Davison and Vermeulen had three goals apiece, Klem placed two shots into the net, and Noah Lagoe scored his first varsity goal. Klem and Abbott each had three assists while Klem and Vermeulen had three steals apiece. Holas had nine saves and two steals while Sundberg made eight saves. Williams said Ramona’s

ever meet win. “A big confidence booster for him,” said Head Coach Steve Albanese. “He’s made some of the biggest improvements on the team from last year to this year.” Sutter was one of two Bulldogs in the JV boys race; junior Sam Clough finished 19th in his first race of the season with a time of 20:12. Four other Ramona runners finished among the top 10 in their races. Albanese put his four first-year runners in the novice races, and Colin McNulty finished third at 19:17. The Guajome Park course was also used for the Valley League cluster meet Oct. 4; McNulty’s time was a 58-second improvement from his race two weeks earlier. Colton Meskell finished eighth in the novice boys race, posting a time of 19:50. Ramona’s other novice boys race competitor was Adam Ramirez,
whose time of 23:11 was worth 36th place. Ramona’s only novice girls race participant was Nicole Pshsnychniak, who finished seventh. The novice girls ran a 2.75-mile course, although the times were lost during the attempt to upload them onto the Internet. The Bulldogs’ only girl in the 2.75-mile JV girls race, Holly Trout, posted a time of 22:56 for 20th place. The varsity races for both the boys and the girls were on a 5,000-meter course. In the boys No. 1-3 race Isaiah Spieker had a time of 16:20, which placed sixth and was a drop of six seconds from his league cluster meet time. Joey Jauregui had a time of 17:15, which was seven seconds faster than his league cluster performance and was worth 26th place at the Southern California Invitational. Colin Uekert would have been Ramona’s No. 3 runner, had a soccer game
not conflicted, so James Meskell was also in the 1-3 race. Meskell finished 35th after completing the course in 17:43. In the No. 4-5 boys race, Ben Stein was 19th at 18:00 and Anthony Jauregui placed 24th with an 18:36 performance. Ramona’s only No. 6-7 boys race participant was Matt Meskell, whose time of 18:53 made him the race’s 28th finisher. Only four Ramona girls competed in the varsity races. “The girls are still very injured,” Albanese said. In the girls 1-3 race, Perla Cruz finished in 21:38 for 25th place, Elizabeth Schweizer posted a time of 22:25 to make her the 29th finisher, and Chloe Knowd raced for 22:40 and took 31st place. Rachel Brown ran in the 4-5 race and finished 19th at 22:14. The season’s second Valley League cluster meet will take place Thursday at Kit Carson Park.
