By KAREN BRAINARD The $680,000 of Park Land Dedication Ordinance (PLDO) money earmarked for Ramona has various sports- and recreationoriented organizations clamoring for the funds. After hearing from several members of those organizations who sought to justify their needs for project funds, the Ramona Community Planning Group voted
Nov. 7 to recommend the county release a portion of PLDO funds for three projects, based on the recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Subcommittee. The three projects on the seven-item Ramona PLDO Priority list proposed to receive funds are: •Project 1: Amphitheater fencing, sod and seed. The amphitheater is in Ramona Community Park. Fencing is needed to keep off-roaders away from the area,
and sod and seeding will allow the bowl area to be developed for family use. Funds requested: $27,500. •Project 4: Girls Softball LED scoreboard. This project will focus on the purchase and installation of electric LED scoreboards on five fields. Funds requested: $40,000. •Project 5: Girls and Boys Club tennis court conversion to basketball court. The project would con-

By MAUREEN ROBERTSON Theresa Grace, Ramona school district’s senior director of education services, has her eyes on the calendar. She applied for a $49,975 grant through the state’s Specialized Secondary Program and hopes to learn by Friday if the district will receive the money. If it does, a Pathways to Engineering program likely will start at Ramona High School. Two courses will be offered: Introduction to Engineering Design and Principles of Engineering. School trustees must approve the program. Based on discussions at recent board meetings, they will. At the trustees’ request, Duane Crum, state leader for Project Lead The Way, recently presented a detailed report on the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) program.

is adopting a nationally proven STEM program that provides curriculum and professional development. Trustee Rodger Dohm teaches Project Lead The Way courses at Poway High School and supports offering them in Ramona. “I think that it’s pretty obvious that, when 5,000 schools are doing Project Lead The Way, there must be something to it,” he said. Project Lead The Way prepares students for the global economy, Crum said, detailing the number of technology jobs available in the country without people trained to do them. The program offers courses in engineering, biomedical sciences, and information and computer science, said Crum. “A concern is that as a nation we’re going to fall farther behind if we don’t ramp up math and science and engage students in those fields,” said Grace.

Fixing the intersection of State Route 67 and Highland Valley/Dye roads for improved traffic flow could come at the expense of other county road projects. That could be welcome news to those opposing the Dye Road Extension and the Ramona Street Extension. Ramona Community Planning Group Chair Jim Piva has led the push to improve the Route 67 and Highland Valley/ Dye roads intersection to alleviate the traffic backups during rush hours. At the planners’ Nov. 7 meeting, he said Joe Hull at Caltrans told him the state transportation agency’s project report on the intersection “is completed and is collecting dust.” That’s not good, Piva said, because the project can’t move further until it receives funding. “Unfortunately there’s been some

glitches in getting the funding,” he said. Piva said he floated the idea of switching transportation impact fee money earmarked for improving the curvy section of Highland Valley Road — a project long down the road — to the intersection. However, after talking with San Diego County Supervisor Dianne Jacob, Piva said the TIF money would not be enough. In July, Caltrans estimated the intersection project would cost $10.5 million. According to Piva, Jacob’s staff came up with an option for funding: delay the first phase of the Dye Road Extension for one year and delay the Ramona Street Extension for four years. If the planning group agreed to the delays, county staff believes the intersection could be funded, he said. “I think the public good is that intersection of Highland Valley/Dye,” said Piva, adding that he will put the issue on the Dec. 5 meeting agenda.

Oil Change Have your oil and filter changed every 3,000 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 4,000 miles with conventional oil; and 5,000 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 6,000 miles with synthetic
2
Fuel Induction For better fuel economy, and to regain some of that lost power and drive ability, have your engine valves/pistons cleaned of carbon build up with a fuel induction service with fuel filter, every 20-25,000 miles. This will create a cleaner, better and longer lasting engine.
3
4
Transmission Fluid Have your transmission fluid checked during every oil change to ensure proper fluid level and refer to your ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manual for specific fluid change intervals to lengthen the life of your transmission.
5
Cooling System To extend the life of your cooling system components, have your system flushed every 30,000 miles and level checked every service.
Drive Train

Celebrating 100 Years at Collier Park By REGINA ELLING With nearly perfect November weather and an enthusiastic crowd on hand, only one thing was missing as Collier Park celebrated its 100-year anniversary — more local residents. But the attendees didn’t let that slow them down one bit. Keith Van Sickle has been a ranger at Collier for 10 years. He stayed busy recounting the park’s
history and present status to numerous individual questions throughout the events. “When I arrived here for the job,” he said, the park was a “weed-infested dirty lot” and the home of “drug dealers and prostitutes.” Based on current guests, Collier Park is now a refuge for families needing a quiet respite in the center of town. The eight-acre park has an impressive history, cen-
tennial guests agreed. In 1909, D.C. “Charlie” Collier, also known as Colonel Collier, donated 10 acres to the Ramona Improvement Society. He intended for the land to become a community park. It was also during this time the eucalyptus colonnade was planted at each major entrance into town. In 1913, the land was donated to San Diego County. It would be 1940 before there was an official county parks department. Collier Park then became San Diego County’s first park. The ancient pepper trees on one side were planted when the land was originally donated. By following the shape of the trees surrounding an open space, guests can see where a former band shell once sat. Through the years, the park has hosted play gyms, tennis courts, a swimming pool, a Scout hut, restrooms, parking lots, ballfields and more. In 1934, Civilian Conservation

Corps members built the rock foot bridges and lined flood canals. But time took its toll on the park, and Van Sickle said that when he came along, “no one was really responsible.” Even though a caretaker lived on the property, his role was limited to “keeping toilet paper in the restrooms and mowing the grass.” Van Sickle made it a professional — and personal — goal to return Collier Park to the community. “I wanted families to be able to enjoy this park,” he said. Toward that end, a county ordinance forbids drinking in Collier Park, one of only a handful of parks in the county with such a ruling. The park has gone through numerous changes in just the past 10 years. “In 2006, I met Teri Schmidt, and she has been the motivating force behind getting the Ramona Garden Club involved here,” said Van Sickle. “The club has transformed

Ramona Town Hall promises a Republican women meeting Monday Dickens of a Christmas Dinner to feature author Chuck LeMenager
Ramona Town Hall trustees and Honorary Mayor Sharon Davis plan a Charles Dickens Village theme for their second annual Traditional 1984 Christmas Dinner. Scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 14, the dinner will reflect the first Christmas dinner of roasted turkey with all the trimmings in Ramona Town Hall, 729 Main St., 119 years ago, said Davis. Attendance is limited to 92 persons and only advance reservations will be accepted. Cost is $65 per person. Attendees are
encouraged to dress in attire reflecting the 1890s. Ramona Unified School District’s All Elementary Choir will entertain dinner guests. Live piano and violin music also is planned. A no-host bar will feature beer and wines from Schwaesdall Winery in Ramona. Seating will be determined by ticket purchase date, noted Davis. Proceeds from the event will benefit Ramona Town Hall, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization.
Palomar Ranger District begins prescribed burns The purpose of the prescribed burns is to help provide community protection by slowing the spread of wildfires, said the district. The area consists of southern California chaparral, oak woodlands and mixed conifer forest in the higher elevation of Palomar Mountain.
Palomar Ranger District of the Cleveland National Forest will conduct 300 to 700 acres of prescribed burning near San Diego Country Estates, Ramona, Santa Ysabel, Julian, Warner Springs and Palomar Mountain through June 2014 as weather and fuel conditions permit.

Guest Commentary
What steps has Ramona Unified taken to dispose of excess property? By BOB GRAEFF Ramona Unified School District Superintendent (Following is the second in a series about fiscal issues related to the Ramona Unified School District. The first, titled "How does Ramona Unified spend its maintenance money," appeared in the Oct. 31 issue and is on the Sentinel website, www.ramonasentinel.com.)
A
s the district continues to explore ways to improve its long-term fiscal health, one of the most challenging areas of potential opportunity lies in property management. With two vacant pieces of property, one former school site, and 10 current school sites, we are asked frequently about disposing of property to make ends meet during these tough financial times. So here is what the district has done in the past few years. The “old Ramona Community School” on Montecito Road north of Main Street was vacated in 2006 when a new, larger site was built at Ramona Street and Hanson Lane. That older property was made available for lease by our board in 2008. While that former school site has served a wide variety of purposes hosting various government agencies and private organizations, we finally completed a five-year lease agreement with the staff from the North Inland Special Education Region Special Education Local Plan Area last spring. The SELPA’s offices and training rooms are now located on a portion of that older site and generate between $32,000 and $35,000 annually for the district. The 40 acres of vacant land behind Ramona High underwent substantial review from 2004 to 2008 as the district sought to identify the environmentally sensitive portion of the property while making plans to expand the high school’s parking and athletic fields on the buildable portion of the property. As priorities have changed and financial issues have emerged, the district has been active in seeking parties interested in buying or leasing both portions of the property. In recent years, we have received multiple appraisals and met with potential buyers for one or both portions of the land. Potential suitors included San Diego County, a large utility company, a developer for a “big box” chain store, and developers of environmental mitigation banks. Unfortunately, no firm offer has yet been proposed to the district. On Bellemore Street in the Estates, the district owns five vacant acres adjacent to a similar piece of property owned by the Estates homeowners’ association. With the understanding that residences cannot be built on our portion of the property, the district has been in negotiations with SDCEA for the past five years to sell or barter the property to the association. Despite many creative proposals, SDCEA and the district have not yet come to terms on a final solution. All other district properties currently house active school sites, including the district office. While school closure has recently become a hot topic in the community, this concept will be reviewed more fully in an upcoming article in this series. The district commissioned a detailed facilities study several months ago and is due to receive that comprehensive report in the next few weeks. The study will focus not only on the properties identified here, but will also make recommendations related to additional school sites and offices. Once received, our current plans are to make that report available to the public in its entirety. In summary, the community can rest assured district staff continues to take a very active, yet quiet, approach in generating potential revenue from our real property assets. It is our hope that as the economy improves, we can benefit from a renewed interest by parties wishing to purchase or lease our available land.

Sentinel Reader Opinion Support Intermountain benefit I am writing to encourage our Ramona citizens to help support the all-important life and property saving work of the Intermountain Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department, which serves and protects the 125-squaremile area east of Ramona. It is an allvolunteer department that mans the Route 78 fire station on a 24/7 basis. Fundraising depends heavily on the financial support of all our residents, as the county only funds limited operational expenses. The recently adopted annual state $150 parcel fee does not support in any way the Intermountain operation as the money is dedicated to fire prevention and education operations. The Hot Spots are once again sponsoring the annual fundraiser, this month at a fantastic old western themed 1899 gourmet dinner to be held at the Town Hall on Main Street on Saturday, Nov. 16, at 6 p.m. The dinner will be highlighted by tray-passed appetizers, main course of whiskey cider braised beef, mashed potatoes, frizzled onions, sautéed carrots and pearl onions. The John Little dinner will be topped off by desserts of bread pudding with whiskey hard cider and fresh peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream. Entertainment will consist of music and singing by local artisans. Attendees must be 21 or older. Western dress of the 1899 era is encouraged. Tickets are available at the Ramona Chamber of Commerce office or by calling Intermountain president g

Don’t drink the Kool-Aid Well, has your ox been gored yet? He told us, 24 times, we could keep our health insurance and doctors. Not so! Instead, they canceled policies! Be patient. There is more coming. The Health Care Act/Obamacare was never about your health. It’s about control — controlling you while invading your privacy. Wait until they “roll out” the rest of the laws within the law. Just remember, come Election 2014, who voted for Obamacare, in lockstep, and who refused to vote for it, in lockstep. Are you thinking those Republicans probably read the bill and knew something that Nancy Pelosi did not know when she said, “We will just have to pass it, in order to find out what's in it?” Or did she know? Perhaps that explains why the elected have their own Rolls-Royce Insurance plan, exempting them from the very health care laws they are mandating for others? By the way, what has happened to “due diligence” with our elected? They don’t have to read what they sign? Huh? Stay informed, stay involved, reach out to your family and friends
locally, and nationally, to help them stay equally informed. We all need to be watching Fox/Channel 37 for the documented facts, videos, printed quotes, etc. as compared to other network media who are questionable as to their information and intent to brainwash. Be careful. The Kool-Aid has been mixed already. Don’t drink it. Connie Bull Ramona
Tissue paper skin Reader Mike Cannone (Sentinel, Oct. 24) must have skin like tissue paper to be so riled over a simple statement by Assemblyman Brian Jones: “You never know when you will need a gun to fend off a criminal, or a tyrant.” Cannone seems to be an Obama sycophant who sees nothing wrong with our “Malthusian Candidate,” who is gradually dismantling our Constitution as he drives the nation into third-world status. If he had his way, no household in this country would harbor weapons, and his own hand-picked military would keep us in line. Tell us, Mr. Cannone, do you suppose that Hitler’s hideous holocaust would have been such a God-awful success if most Jewish households had possessed pistols, rifles or shotguns? The Founders knew that we should be able to keep ourselves armed. A.G. Smith, Ph.D. Ramona
Friends’ annual meeting features retired state park superintendent Ramona author and retired state park superintendent David Van Cleve will be the speaker at Friends of the Ramona Library Annual Meeting in the library’s Auerbach Community Room at 1 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 20. The public is invited. After a brief meeting for their annual election of directors, Van Cleve will share some of his humorous-toludicrous experiences from 32 years as a California park ranger. Van Cleve retired as superintendent of the largest park in the state’s system, the Anza Borrego, and moved to Ramona with wife Mary. His responsibilities also included running the Cuyamaca State Park. He will sign copies of his recently-released book, “Have a Nice Day Job.” Attendees can look forward to an enjoyable time and chat with “Mr. Ranger” during the book-signing after this talk, said Chuck LeMenager, Friends of Ramona Library director.
Sheriff’s advisory group meets Thursday
From page 8
the Preamble, the Second, Fourth, Ninth and Tenth amendments, refers to people as individuals. In each case, rights belonging to “the people” are without question the rights of individuals. Since my election to the Assembly, I have seen firsthand how grossly the issue of gun ownership is being politically manipulated. There is little room for reason and virtually no room for the facts in the debate. I find it noteworthy that the number of privately owned guns in the U.S. has reached an all-time high of over 300 million, and is actually increasing by approximately 10 million per year. I am not surprised that, given this data, the firearm accident death rate has fallen to an all-time low, 0.2 per 100,000 population, down 94 percent since the high in 1904. Actually, in the past 80-plus years, the annual number of firearm accident deaths has decreased 81 percent, while our nation’s population has more than doubled and the number of firearms has grown by five times. Many facts could actually lend

some reason to the debate. For example, the National Safety Council reports that firearms are used for personal defense 2.5 million times a year — which equates to a whopping 6,850 times a day. This means that each year, firearms are used 80 times more often to protect the lives of honest citizens than to take lives, and as many as 200,000 women use a gun every year to defend themselves against sexual abuse. Protection of our life and liberty is a multi-pronged effort, and I take great care to work closely with members of law enforcement. Those who stand between the law-abiding and the lawless have a difficult task, and my call for individuals to become informed on the topic of personal firearm ownership comes from the understanding that we can’t rely on law enforcement to be everywhere at all times. Most solutions to our crime rate will not come from Sacramento. It might surprise you that police are not even required to protect you: in Warren v. District of Columbia (1981), the D.C. Court of Appeals
ruled, “police personnel and the government employing them are not generally liable to victims of criminal acts for failure to provide adequate police protection . . . . [A] government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any particular citizen.” In Bowers v. DeVito (1982), the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals ruled “[T]here is no constitutional right to be protected by the state against being murdered by criminals or madmen.” That said, it is up to each one of us to safeguard our home and families. I trust that with this background, you may have a better understanding of my thoughts because my views follow much careful deliberation and study. The subject of firearms and the Second Amendment are serious and have been weighed with factual evidence as well as a deep consideration of our constitutionally protected rights. Thanks for listening. Ramona is among communities in California Assembly District 71.
Ramona Sheriff’s Citizens Advisory Group will meet with Lt. James Bovet in the Ramona substation at 10 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 14. The public is welcome. The group consists of five residents and meets quarterly with Bovet to dis-
cuss concerns in the community and receive updates on law enforcement issues. Non-members may also share their concerns. The Ramona station is at 1424 Montecito Road. Those attending should go to the station’s lobby.

shalled the seven projects through the subcommittee,” said Cooper. He said the subcommittee believed the three projects were at or near shovel-ready completion and should receive funds now. The subcommittee is working
“We want to be good stewards with this money." — Planning group chair Jim Piva with San Diego County Parks and Recreation Department, which reviews the projects and has the ultimate say. Cooper said he receives weekly status reports from the county. Representatives for the priority list’s No. 2 project, Ramona soccer field expansion, and the No. 3 project, skateboard park development, spoke on the merits of their projects to emphasize their need for funding. Concerned that funding could go toward one project, Becky Ocampo said Ramona Soccer League expects to have three more competitive teams next year with another 50 to 60 children and needs more field space. RSL is requesting $150,000 for the estimated $300,000 project. Cooper, however, said that based on comments from the county, including that there is no design for the new field
and information is missing, funds cannot be recommended at this time. Nancy Roy, champion for the skateboard park, said kids have been waiting for years for such a facility, and many are now adults with children of their own “and still no skate park.” The skate park committee is requesting $90,000 for design. Construction is estimated at about $700,00. “As the skate park champion for this project, I would like to make a recommendation that the current PLDO funds be held for construction of the skate park before any other projects lower on the PLDO priority list are funded,” said Roy. “I know this would be a very bold and courageous move by the Ramona Community Planning Group because I know other groups are waiting to fund their own project, too, but this project is so long overdue for our children and we may never have this opportunity again to fund this priority for a very long time.” Cooper said the subcommittee considered funding for the skateboard park but it was considered inappropriate at this time due to the county’s status report. “There was considerable effort still needed for the skateboard park to bring it near a fully-funded picture,” he said. “That does not mean that isn’t a top priority for the subcommittee and it should not mean it isn’t top priority for this group.”

Above, David Williams, vice president of Ramona Soccer League, tells the planning group that the league has contributed a lot of its own funds to the soccer fields and equipment. Above right, Jim Cooper, chair of the planning group’s Parks and Recreation Subcommittee, explains why some priority list projects are not recommended for PLDO funding at this time.
Planning group chair Jim Piva, who is also on the San Diego Country Estates Association Board, said a skateboard park for the Estates was in the works with a completed top-of-the-line design but the site for it can no longer be used due to new groundwater regulations. The designer/engineer is willing to donate the design and even expand it for the community skate park, he said. That could save the skate park committee about $90,000, he said. Also speaking on behalf of a priority list project was Dean Welch, champion of the No. 6 Ramona High School baseball/softball fencing and dugouts, with $100,000 requested. Welch said the average high school dugout is 50 feet from home plate, but Ramona High’s is 35 feet. “This is unbelievably unsafe,” he said.
RCPG members noted that projects 1, 4 and 5 only amount to about $140,000 and there will still be funds left. “We want to be good stewards with this money,” said Piva, suggesting project champions also look for buy-ins and not just rely on PLDO funds. “I think there should be enough to give everybody,” he said. RCPG member Kevin Wallace was the only one opposing the recommended funding for projects 1, 4, and 5, saying the community needs a skate park. Members Barbara Jensen, Dennis Sprong and Torry Brean were absent. If the three projects receive their funding, the other projects move up on the priority list. An eighth project was added to the list at the meeting — new playground equipment for Barnett Elementary School.
Barnett playground added to priority list After viewing a presentation on replacing the playground structure at Barnett Elementary School, Ramona Community Planning Group unanimously agreed to add the project to the Ramona Park Land Dedication Ordinance priority list. The Barnett project will rank eighth on list, which has seven other projects requesting PLDO funding. Approximately $600,000 of PLDO funds is available for recreational uses in the community. The county charges the park fee with residential building permits. While the planning group can recommend projects to receive funding, San Diego County Parks and Recreation Department oversees release of the money. Denise Drum and Breeanna Purcell, co-chairs of the Barnett playground project, gave a PowerPoint presentation on the 21-year-old playground during the planners’ Nov. 7 meeting.
“It currently does not meet current safety guidelines...in many ways,” said Drum. The playground equipment is original to the school and has not been refurbished, she said. It is used by about 500 children in grades one through six and is open to the community when school is not in session. The project would replace the playground area with new structures and add a challenge course with games and activities. PLDO funding requested is $117,675. Drum and Purcell said $7,500 has already been collected from a fundraiser and in-kind donations. A letter from Ramona Unified School District Assistant Superintendent David Ostermann to the county said the school district supports the project. The school board will need to give final approval once PLDO funding is awarded, he stated. —Karen Brainard

Walk for Life attracts 500, raises $3,000
A
n estimated 500 people participated in the 5th Annual Yellow Ribbon Suicide Prevention Walk for Life at the Ramona High School field on Saturday. They walked the track, wore memory beads and bracelets, learned Zumba moves, had their faces painted, posted messages and/or photos on the Memory Wall, decorated memory tea light bags, won prizes, listened to music, visited the food booth, and talked with and received information from counselors and
others manning the resource tables. “It was a great crowd, said Sun Valley Council PTA President Kristina Krohne, event chair. “It just grows every year.” Approximately $1,000 in donations came from students, parents, school employees and community members at the walk, and the food booth raised about $300. Add to that the $1,700 donated before the walk — $800 from Dr. Jane Tanaka, $800 from Palomar Health and $100 from Fitness Xpress — and a total
of $3,000 will go to anti-bullying, Challenge Day and other programs at Ramona High, Montecito High, Olive Peirce Middle School and the elementary schools. Decisions about specific programs will be made after walk organizers discuss options with school counselors, said Krohne. More information about the walk is on the Ramona Suicide Prevention Walk for Life Facebook page and on the Ramona Unified School District Facebook page.

Man faces second trial after jury acquits him of second-degree murder in infant’s death By NEAL PUTNAM After a jury acquitted a Ramona man of murder in the death of his girlfriend’s baby, a prosecutor announced Friday, Nov. 8, he will face a second trial on charges of involuntary manslaughter and assault upon a child. The seven-woman, fiveman jury acquitted David Humberto Ortiz, 21, of second-degree murder on Nov. 4 after deliberating 4½ days. They deadlocked 8-4 for conviction on the other charges, and a mistrial was declared for those counts. Ortiz appeared Friday before El Cajon Superior Court Judge Allan Preckel
to hear whether he would face a second trial. Preckel set the retrial for Jan. 13. He remains in jail on $1.5 million bail. The murder acquittal spares Ortiz from serving a life sentence, but the assault charge upon a child carries a 25-year penalty. He has pleaded not guilty and did not testify in his trial. The trial began Oct. 15. His attorney, Jane Kinsey, told jurors the daughter’s injuries could have occurred after she fell off a sofa, which is what Ortiz told sheriff’s deputies. Prosecutor Fiona Khalil told jurors he violently shook the baby. Liliana Velasquez suf-
fered a brain injury on July 4, 2012, and a leg fracture where she lived with her mother in the 2600 block of Southern Oak Road in Ramona. Ortiz was not the father of the victim, but lived there with her 20-year-old mother, who was at work at the time. Ortiz borrowed a cell
phone from a painter working next door and called his aunt, saying the baby was unresponsive. She told him to bring the baby to her and paramedics were called. She was airlifted to a hospital. Ortiz told paramedics the girl fell off the couch, but later admitted to shak-
ing the baby so hard that “her head bobbed,” said Khalil in her opening statement. Blood appeared in her eyes, a classic sign of abuse, she added, and the baby’s left ankle was fractured. “Liliana’s brain was swollen. Her brain had been denied oxygen,” said
the prosecutor. Two doctors determined that Liliana was braindead, said Khalil. She could not breathe on her own and she gave no response to stimuli. After two days in this condition, the child’s life support was removed and she died.

Shaw, 29, of Yucca Valley, was visiting family members in Ramona on Halloween when he was seen giving candy to children at the annual Main Street Trick or Treat event sponsored by Ramona Chamber of Commerce. Shaw pleaded not guilty to the felony charge last
week in El Cajon Superior Court. Deputy District Attorney Derek Grilz said Shaw was convicted of a sex charge involving a girl in Oregon in 2003. Shaw was dressed as a zombie at the event and some parents told sheriff’s deputies he was acting suspiciously. His costume
included white face paint with red stripes to resemble blood. Shaw was 19 years old when he was convicted of the charge in Oregon. He remains in the South Bay Detention Facility on $100,000 bail. If convicted, he could be sentenced to six years in prison.
Costumed sex offender faces Nov. 19 hearing for not registering
A Nov. 19 preliminary hearing has been set for Danny Shaw, who is charged with failing to register as a sex offender and was arrested on Halloween as he gave candy to trick-or-treaters in Ramona.

Verlaque House sports new look The 1886 Verlaque House, centerpiece of the Guy B. Woodward Museum, is sporting a new look, thanks to Ed Bates and his paintbrush. The front porch and steps have been brightened with a new coat of paint. The millinery shop also has been repainted. Capt. Charles Trease Jr., U.S. Navy retired, has added to the museum’s archives with a donation of photographs depicting Ramona in the 1920s and 30s. Jean Stralis Emergency responders prepare to air transport a 70-year-old man with non-lifethreatening injuries to Palomar Medical Center Monday morning. The man was walking in the crosswalk at San Vicente Road and Arena Drive when he was struck by a pickup truck driven by a 55-year-old Ramona man, CHP Officer Kevin Pearlstein said. The driver was southbound on Arena making a left turn onto San Vicente and said he didn’t see the man in the crosswalk, said Pearlstein. The pedestrian suffered a head laceration, broken pelvis and abrasions, CHP reported. No alcohol or drugs were involved, the officer said.

The wreck was on Graves Avenue, north of the Highway 67 interchange at Broadway, El Cajon Police Lt. Walter Miller said. “The motorcyclist was northbound on Graves at a high rate of speed and driving
in a reckless manner when an officer at the intersection saw him and attempted to stop him,” Miller said. “The motorcyclist failed to negotiate a curve in the road, and fell from the vehicle into the southbound lane of Graves Avenue and Hart Drive and was struck by a southbound vehicle.’’ Denmark was pronounced dead at the scene, Miller said. The driver of the other vehicle, a Honda Accord, was not injured. CHP was investigating the crash because it happened in its jurisdiction in unincorporated El Cajon, Miller said.

County negotiates with Caltrans to expand RICC property By KAREN BRAINARD and JOE NAIMAN California Department of Transportation has agreed to allow the county to acquire its property at Main and 12th Streets for the future Ramona Intergenerational Community Campus (RICC), providing the county finds suitable replacement sites. At its Nov. 5 meeting, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors, by a 5-0 vote, authorized the director of the county’s Department of General Services to execute a memorandum of understanding with Caltrans to conduct site searches for replacement proper-
ties and to execute option agreements. The replacement properties for Caltrans will be in Ramona and Julian. “I’m very proud that an agreement has finally been reached,” said Supervisor Dianne Jacob. “We are jazzed,” an enthusiastic Arvie Degenfelder told the Ramona Community Planning Group at its Nov. 7 meeting. ”We envision that (property) to be the new Ramona adult center.” Degenfelder is co-chair of the RICC committee. Standing in the community room of the Ramona Library, Degenfelder told the planning group and those attending that they
were in RICC’s flagship building. Also planned for the campus are a community center, senior center, skateboard park and other community-oriented facilities. “It’s a fabulous vision,” Jacob said at the supervisors’ meeting on Nov. 5. “The facilities built over time should become a staple for citizens of all ages.” Caltrans’ two parcels at Main and 12th streets total 1.38 acres. The site search will focus on finding a 3/4-acre site in Ramona and a half-acre site in Julian. The terms of the agreement call for the county to install improve-

ments such as fencing and paving on the replacement sites and to pay any difference between the cost of the improved replacement parcels and the appraised
value of Caltrans’ two parcels. Caltrans’ need for a replacement road station site in Ramona and a new road station site in Julian, allows Caltrans road crews to continue to provide maintenance and repair services on state roads in the northeastern part of San Diego County. Because of state regulations on disbursement of proceeds from the sale of Caltrans real property, an exchange transaction rather than a direct sale was deemed desirable by Caltrans and the county. Once replacement properties are found, county staff will prepare the environmental review

and return to the board to identify funding for acquisition and improvements. The county bought the 6.78-parcel on Main Street between 12th and 13th streets for $2.575 million in 2003 and an adjacent .52-acre parcel in 2008 for $400,000 for the RICC. In addition to the Caltrans property, there are approximately 7.68 acres of private property identified in the RICC Visionary Plan that are yet to be acquired. According to the county, plans for the community campus and potential connectivity to the proposed Santa Maria Creek Greenway Park has been in the works since October 1999.

Cadets’ Salute to Veterans at Ramona High elicits tears By BILL TAMBURRINO Inspiring, educational, emotional, enlightening and patriotic are adjectives that describe what occurred as the Ramona High School Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps held its sixth annual Salute to Veterans at the school on Saturday. About half of the 66 cadets present participated in the ceremonies as speakers, honor guards and demonstrators. Master of ceremonies was Cadet Maggie Mellecker, a 4.08 grade-point average student who wants to attend University of California Santa Barbara
and pursue a doctorate in psychology. The night included historical presentations about the five military services, a tribute to MIAs and POWs, a presentation about the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and those who stand guard over it, a roll call for those from Ramona who paid the ultimate sacrifice while defending the country, a presentation on the military code of conduct by retired CPO Tony Dunkailo, a reading about what it is to be a veteran and the featured speaker, was Lt. Col. Ralph Kling, U.S. Air Force retired. Kling was a pilot in World War II who flew 68
missions, mostly in support of Gen. George Patton’s army. Kling’s plane was shot down and he was in the prison camp that inspired the film “The Great Escape.” His presentation combined humor, historical facts, human interest, and brought many to tears. The ceremony ended with Cadet Wesley Richardson singing “Arlington” and then the entire Corps and audience singing “I am proud to be an American”. After the ceremony, parents and veterans gave Lt. Col. Kling a rock star treatment, asking him to pose for pictures with them.

Bulldogs receive No. 2 seed for CIF playoffs Finish season undefeated in league By BILL TAMBURRINO After the Bulldogs became the outright Palomar League champions in football by beating Westview High School 14-7 before a large Senior Night crowd on the road Nov. 8, the mood in Coach Damon Baldwin’s post- game message was surprisingly somber. “I am not pleased with the way we played. We should get a bye and that will give us a chance to get healthy. From now on out, it is sudden death,” Baldwin told the team. After addressing the team, Baldwin told the media, “Westview posed some problems for our linemen on both sides of the ball. On offense they were very mobile. Their quarterback is a very good athlete. He can run and pass and pass on the run. Our defense did a very good job of adjusting. They showed several fronts on defense and had several blitzes off of those fronts. We are a little banged up. We should get a bye and get healthy. We accomplished our first goal as un-
defeated Palomar League champs. We have other goals to pursue.” The defense saved the day. Coach Stephon Pace’s Dawgs held Westview to 209 total yards and intercepted two passes and came up with two huge fourth quarter stops — one that stopped Westview from taking the lead and one that stopped the Wolverines from tying the game. Westview’s only score came off of a Bulldog fumble on their own 10 yard line. Garrett Dart had the best night of his career. Dart broke up three passes, intercepted a pass and had four tackles. Tanner “TBone” Williams was all over the field on defense as he had 14 tackles, which included two sacks. Part of Westview’s game plan was to run away from Travis Kerchner but Kerchner still recorded seven tackles. Ben Barnat came on strong in the second half as he recorded five of his eight tackles after intermission. In all, 13 Bulldogs recorded tackles. Garrett Binkley broke up two passes and had an interception. Mike
Hoover’s one tackle was for a big sack on a fourth quarter drive. Nathan Cherek played sparingly on defense but he broke up two passes. Ramona scored first, late in the first half. Justin Villagrana got a key block from Hoover and went 31 yards for a touchdown. “I was never touched. I broke through the hole and saw a linebacker coming at me. Hoover put a big hit on him and I was home free,” said Villagrana. “I was happy that I could help the team win. I try to help any way I can.” And help he does. Villagrana is on most of the special teams and is an excellent blocker. “I usually go in to pass block so when my number was called I was pleasantly surprised,” he said. So was the Westview defense. Marco Cobian had a 10 for 18 night for 158 yards. He threw several deep passes to loosen up the Wolverine defense. His longest completion was a 41-yard strike to Tanner Williams.

Football team gets first round bye, plays quarterfinal next week Ramona High School’s football team has received the No. 2 seed in the CIF Division I bracket and will be given a first round bye this week. The Bulldogs’ next game will be the CIF quarterfinal on Thursday, Nov. 21, at RHS Bulldog Stadium, beginning at 7 p.m. The opponent will be No. 7-seeded Mt.

Friday Night Lights at Bulldog Stadium
By BILL TAMBURRINO Everybody knows how hard the players and coaches work to prepare for a varsity football game. Games are played on Friday nights in the fall but they are won in the weight room in the winter, spring and summer. Some schools in the San Diego CIF Section and other areas around the country still play on Fri-
day afternoons. There are several reasons for the afternoon games. I won’t go into those reasons in this column in order to be politically correct. I did work at a school before I came to Ramona that had to quit playing night games due to gang activities in the neighborhood. The day games almost killed the entire athletic department. Football pays the bills. The Friday Night Lights
shine brightly in Ramona. Bulldog football is more of a happening than an athletic event. The entire community comes out and supports the football team and therefore the rest of the athletic department and other extracurricular programs. “This community is ‘All in!’" said Coach Damon Baldwin, using one of his favorite motivational phrases. "Since I have been here I have never seen the community support that we get at any of the schools on our schedule. That is the main reason that I applied for and wanted the
job of coaching football at Ramona. The community’s reputation for its support is known far and wide. “No one person can put on a first class football game on a Friday night. Since I have been here several people have taken charge and done the job of coordinating all of the elements that it takes to turn on the Friday Night Lights. “This year Nancy Sapper, our Booster's Club president, is the one pulling the strings.” Sapper wanted to make one point clear: “We are not a football boosters club. We support all of the extracurricular and
some curricular activities at Ramona High School. We are the Ramona High School Bulldogs Booster’s Club and we get volunteers from most of the other sports and activities to help us at football games. We also work at volleyball games, wrestling, basketball games and other events but football is the most visible and brings in the most money for all of the sports and activities.” The Booster’s Club mans the snack bar at the games and is in charge of the football programs that are sold. Every game has a completely new program with updated stats, new
pictures and is one of the best in the county. “Lorri Rieve and Laura Vigneau have taken on the task of producing the program. Doug Sooley and Alan Rhoads roam the sidelines at home and away games, taking great action shots of all of the action on and off of the field. Lisa Burger has stepped up and is in charge of the snack bar. She shops, buys and coordinates the menu. She has completely remodeled the interior on her own to make things easier on game days. Karen Vaughn is our treasurer and sells the tickets for the See TIMEOUT on page 28

UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDINGS AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. On December 9, 2013 at 10:00 AM, at the entrance to the East County Regional Center by statue, 250 E. Main Street, El Cajon, CA 92020, MTC Financial Inc. dba Trustee Corps, as the duly Appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust Recorded on June 13, 2007 as Instrument No. 2007-0401036 of official records in the Office of the Recorder of San Diego County, California, executed by KENNETH WILLIAM TETER, AND, CARA MAY TETER, HUSBAND AND WIFE AS JOINT TENANTS, as Trustor(s), in favor of MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC. as nominee for SUNTRUST MORTGAGE, INC. as Beneficiary, WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, in lawful money of the United States, all payable at the time of sale, that certain property situated in said County, California describing the land therein as: AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN SAID DEED OF TRUST The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 2207 TICANU DRIVE, JULIAN, CA 92036 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee`s Sale is estimated to be $481,336.16 (Estimated), provided, however, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary`s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier`s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee`s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder`s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. 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 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 Priority Posting and Publishing at 714-573-1965 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA08000229-13-1.

Why eight days? By HAROLD SCHACHATER As the winter solstice approaches, the nights grow longer and daylight hours decrease. It has been common for many of the world’s peoples to illuminate the darkness by the lighting of candles. This practice is observed by many of the world’s religions and has been so for many millennia. At this time of the year, those of the Jewish faith celebrate Chanukah, or Hanukkah. But the holiday is a minor one in the Jewish religious calendar. Chanukah is not even mentioned in the Hebrew Bible or Holy Scriptures (Tanakh), commonly and incorrectly referred to as the Old Testament. Many non-Jews think that it is the Jewish observance of Christmas, but it is not. Chanukah means “rededication” and its origin precedes the birth of Christ by more than 150 years. It was known as the
“Festival of Lights” before it became known as Chanukah. It commemorates a ”miracle” that took place in 165 BCE (Before the Common Era), when the Maccabees successfully fought a three-and-a-half year guerilla war of revolution against the much larger and better equipped Syrian-Greek army. The military forces of the then reigning monarch, Antiochus IV, were driven from the Holy Temple in Jerusalem that had been desecrated and defiled, and the Holy Temple was cleansed and rededicated (hence, the name Chanukah). There was only one undefiled cruse of olive oilfound, bearing the seal of the Holy Temple’s high priest. It was used to burn as fuel in the Temple’s lamps when the Temple was cleansed and rededicated. This singular cruse contained sufficient olive oil to last just one day. It would take eight days to process more sacramental olive oil to burn in the

Temple’s lamps. The miracle of Chanukah is that this singular cruse of olive oil kept the Temple’s lamps lit for eight days, not just one day, until new olive oil for fuel could be obtained. The miracle was not that Judah Maccabee (Judah, the Hammer) led the successful military campaign against much superior military odds. It was a fight for the principle of religious freedom. But Judaism does not glorify war. The miracle was that this singular undefiled cruse of olive oil kept the Temple’s lamps burning for eight days. But why did it take eight days to obtain new olive oil for fuel? Was it because of some complicated, complex or mysterious processing? No! It appears to be a matter of simple logistics at that time. In ancient Israel, Joshua divided the Promised Land amongst the 23 Tribes of Israel following the conquest of Canaan around 1200 BCE. Jerusalem was located within the territorial lands given to the descendants of Judah. While there were
olive groves only about a dozen miles south of Jerusalem (also within Judah’s tribal lands), the best, most fertile agricultural lands were in the northwestern part of ancient Israel,in the western part of Galilee. These lands were assigned to the Tribe of Asher, which had the finest oilve groves on its lands. It was from these groves that the Temple in Jerusalem procured its olives to be pressed for oil as fuel for its lamps. But the lands belonging to the Tribe of Asher were a three-day walk from Jerusalem, each way. The harvested olives were transported in an ox-drawn cart. Three days to walk to the olive groves, a day to fill the cart with harvested olives, three days to walk back to Jerusalem, and a day to process the olives totaled eight days. The Jewish calendar is a lunar-based calendar. Our civil calendar, the Gregorian calendar, is solarbased. Because they are calculated differently, the beginning of Chanukah usually occurs anywhere from late November to late December.
This year, 2013, the beginning of Chanukah coincides with Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, Nov. 28. This is a rare coincidence. Since the advent of Thanksgiving as a national holiday, it has occurred only once before, in 1888. Besides this year’s Thanksgiving Day, the beginning of Chanukah and Thanksgiving Day will not occur on the same day again until 2070. After that, it will be 2165. And if that weren’t extraordinary enough, this Thanksgiving Day also will have an astronomical event that is truly a oncein-a-lifetime occurrence. We on Earth are expecting a visitation by Comet ISON. Comet ISON has been referred to as the “Comet of the Century.” It is expectd to be its brightest, its perihelion, as it shaves by our sun on Thanksgiving Day. Comet ISON is not expected to make a return trip to our inner solar system for thousands, perhaps millions of years, so it really is a once-in-alifetime event. Perihelion is the closest distance that an orbiting astronomical
27
body comes to its “parent” body about which it orbits. The farthest distance is called the aphelion. Comet ISON will shave past our sun on Thanksgiving Day at 3 p.m. PST at a distance estimated to be 724,000 miles from the sun’s surface. At that distance, Comet ISON is expected to experience solar heat calculated to be 4,890 degrees Fahrenheit, sufficiently hot to melt iron. While Comet ISON will be at its brightest the closer it is to our sun, you should not attempt to look for it on Thanksgiving Day or you could damage your vision by staring at our bright sun at 3 p.m. Comet ISON should be visible to the unaided eye from now through early January 2014. It might be as bright as our full moon, possibly even visible during daylight. It should light up the sky. Interestingly, its appearance will coincide with the Jewish Festival of Lights. You can learn more about Comet ISON by “googling” it on the Internet.
IRS warns taxpayers about phone scam Internal Revenue Service warns consumers about a sophisticated phone scam targeting taxpayers, including recent immigrants. Victims are told they owe money to the IRS and it must be paid promptly through a pre-loaded debit card or wire transfer. If the victim refuses to cooperate, they are then threatened with arrest, deportation or suspension of a business or driver’s license. In many cases, the caller becomes hostile and insulting. “This scam has hit taxpayers in nearly every state in the country,” says IRS Acting Commissioner Danny Werfel. “Rest assured, we do not and will not ask for credit card numbers over the phone, nor request a pre-paid debit card or wire transfer. If someone unexpectedly calls claiming to be from the IRS and threatens police arrest, deportation or license revocation if you don’t pay immediately, that is a sign that it really isn’t the IRS calling.” Werfel noted that the first
IRS contact with taxpayers on a tax issue is likely to occur via mail Other characteristics of this scam include: •Scammers use fake names and IRS badge numbers. They generally use common names and surnames to identify themselves. •Scammers may be able to recite the last four digits of a victim’s Social Security Number. •Scammers spoof the IRS toll-free number on caller ID to make it appear that it’s the IRS calling. •Scammers sometimes send bogus IRS emails to some victims to support their bogus calls. •Victims hear background noise of other calls being conducted to mimic a call site. •After threatening victims with jail time or driver’s license revocation, scammers hang up and others soon call back pretending to be from the local police or DMV, and the caller ID supports their claim.
Anyone receiving a phone call from someone claiming to be from the IRS should: •If you know you owe taxes or you think you might owe taxes, call the IRS at 800-829-1040. The IRS employees at that line can help with a payment issue — if there really is such an issue. •If you know you don’t owe taxes or have no reason to think that you owe any taxes, call and report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 800-3664484. •If you’ve been targeted by this scam, you should also contact the Federal Trade Commission and use their “FTC Complaint Assistant” at FTC.gov. Add “IRS Telephone Scam”
to the comments of your complaint. The IRS does not initiate contact with taxpayers by email to request personal or financial information. This includes any type of electronic communication, such as text messages and social media channels. The IRS also does not ask for PINs, passwords or similar confidential access information for credit card, bank or other financial accounts. Recipients should not open any attachments or click on any links contained in the message. Instead, forward the e-mail to phishing@irs.gov. More information on how to report phishing scams involving the IRS is available on the genuine IRS website, IRS.gov.
Creek Hollow offers obstacle challenge
Creek Hollow Ranch will holds its third Wranglers of the West Obstacle Challenge on Saturday, Nov. 16. The event is the last in a three-show fall buckle series that is open to all disciplines/tack. New participants are welcome, said Trainer Christine Snyder. She called the obstacles challenging but fun and said, “It’s about the ability and horsemanship skills.”

Billiard players cue up for Wednesday nights By KAREN BRAINARD On a typical Wednesday night in Molly Malone’s sports bar, the mood among a group of patrons is friendly but focused. Most would not be in a bar on a mid-week night except for one reason, said Bill Mellecker of Ramona, and that is to play pool. With the formation of a Billiards Congress of America Pool League (BCAPL) in Ramona, playing pool competitively is growing. Resident Henry Preciado, who serves as president of the BCAPL San Diego, said he thinks the league is expanding in Ramona because there is not a lot to choose from in the way of entertainment. Noting that many people in the community have a pool table at home, Preciado said, “Our league gives them the opportunity to display their skills and learn from more experienced players.” g

snack bar. She is one of the superstars of our executive board. Joan Snelling lives in the ticket booth and sells season tickets. The board of the PTSA sells tickets on game days and they have two gates to man; one for those who buy tickets on game day and one for those with season tickets and passes. “I don’t have to micro manage. I have complete trust in everybody. If I am not there, all of the jobs get done,” stated Sapper. Besides the boosters, other individuals and groups have big jobs on Friday nights. Antoinette Rodriguez and Bob Verhoest are in charge of security and field access. “We also wash bottles and clean the bathrooms,” joked Verhoest who is also the game host. His duties as game host are many. He greets the visiting teams and takes them to the locker rooms, makes sure that the visiting coaches and film crew are taken care of, supplies the announcer and time keeper with water and programs, and, as he said, cleans up after the
teams; two of those teams just started this month. Each team can have up to six players but only four can compete in a game. The 20-week season that began in June culminated Oct. 30 with playoffs among four teams. g

Bill Mellecker, right, assists teammate Eric Fox by strategizing the next shot.
The main draw to participate in the league is competition, he said, but other factors include acquiring more knowledge of the game and the opportunity to play in the nationals in Las Vegas. “We’re going to be sending a couple of Cinderella teams to Las Vegas next year,” he predicted. ”Most of the guys that are going are Ramona-grown talent. We’ve taught them a lot and they’ve come a long way.”
Preciado and a couple of other members have competed against the pros. When BCA, which is in 12 countries, wanted to expand the league in the San Diego market, Preciado decided to take on the task. “My passion for the game and the opportunity to groom new talent is one of many reasons why I enjoy heading BCA pool leagues here in San Diego,” he said. In Ramona there are 10

Binkley, Keyanis Crichlow and Colton Harris with 13yard completions and also completed passes to Cherek and Brandon Gansch. Cherek led all Bulldogs in rushing with 70 yards. His biggest run came with 6:45 left in the game when he went around left end for a 17-yard touchdown to break a 7-7 tie. Tyler Vargas’ second PAT made it a 14-7 league-clinching victory. Gansch, T-Bone Williams and Cobian also rushed for positive yardage. In 2011 Ramona did not win a game in the Palomar League. Last season the Dawgs finished second in the league and CIF. So in
Preciado’s team, 4 Jacks, was the season’s first place champion. They won $800 and did not have to compete in the playoffs. League participants pitch in $8 each week with the money going toward prizes as well as expenses.

two years the Dawgs have moved from worst to first as they finished the regular season with a 9-1 record. “Several members of this senior class played on the varsity as sophomores. They have worked hard and dedicated themselves to becoming champions and now they are champions!” said Baldwin. Ramona was awarded the second seed in the Division I CIF playoffs. The Dawgs will get a bye Friday and will play the winner of the Mt. Carmel and Westview game played on Friday. The Dawgs will host the winner at The Dawg Pound on Thursday, Nov. 21.

game is over. Ramona has one of the county’s best video crews and video programs for its players and coaches. It is the brainchild of Rheynard Morgan who has spent many years in the “Black Hole.” “I call the coaches office the Black Hole because every time you enter it, years disappear from your life,” joked Morgan. This year Brian Calkins and Mikey Schuler are the sideline and end zone photographers. Every play that the Bulldogs run is filmed at two different views. Football is not a contact sport. Dancing is a contact sport. Football is a collision sport. And there are injuries in collision sports. Ramona has a great sports medicine team. Doctors Gordon Luan and Scott Flinn from Arch Healthcare are on hand at all home and away games. Steve Pettis is the athletic trainer for the Dawgs. Ramona has a sports medicine class and students in the class volunteer time at the games to help Trainer Steve.
“Every time we have needed something or asked for something, the parents have stepped up."
— Leighanne Kerchner
Leighanne Kerchner is the team mom but she is more like the matriarch of Ramona football. “I get a lot of help,” she said. “We have team meals for all three teams the day before game day. We carbo load for those meals. We make sure that the athletes eat the correct food and drink the proper drinks. Every parent in the program chips in in one way or the other. One week the culinary arts at RHS cooked the team meal for us. They did a great job. “Parents sign up to host the meals. Parents sign up to provide food and drinks. This year the Seidls have provided tables and chairs for the meals. For road games we give every player a sack lunch for a pregame snack. Jessica Zanie coordinates the frosh and Melissa Schmidt does so for the junior varsity. “Every time we have
needed something or asked for something the parents have stepped up. Our athletes are never lacking.” Leighanne Kerchner also coordinates the PTSA board ticket sales. Lieutenant Commander Mike Ernst and Chief Petty Officer Bob Richardson and the RHS NJROTC cadets are in charge setting up the spirit tunnel for varsity home games and they provide the chain gang for the frosh games. The NJROTC also provides the Color Guard to present the colors for the National Anthem. Tess Beatty or the RHS Chamber Choir sing the National Anthem at home games. A high school football game would not be a high school football game without the presence of a marching band and pageantry team, and Ramona High School has an award-winning band
and pageantry team. Daniel James has brought the Royal Alliance to an elite status. The band does pregame shows and halftime entertainment. The band is a finalist for the KUSI-TV’s Prep Pigskin Report band of the year competition. The band was recently featured on PPR and received a $500 check for its performance. Ramona High’s Cheer and Song teams are also nationally acclaimed. Melissa Brunner is the cheer adviser for Coaches Dakota Sanders, Kyla Brunner and Heather Howard. Tracy Stewart and Hillary Stewart guide the Song team. Both teams provide entertainment at halftimes. Jack Roloff has been in charge of providing a chain gang for varsity football games since 1987. Gary Besaw has announced all three levels of Bulldog football and is the voice Ramona Pop Warner. He also spots for the games that he is not calling. Chuck Schoepp mans the clock for football as well as for basketball. Besaw and Schoepp have their hands
full keeping the announcer on his toes. This reporter has been announcing RHS athletic contests since 1975. Baldwin and Morgan recruit and supervise the Bulldog Angels — the best hydration crew in the CIF. Baldwin also had high praise for his manager, Jared Dunn, and his practice controller, Emma Lisowski. Emma’s dad, Matt Lisowski, monitors and records all of the plays called during the varsity games, and gets the stats to MaxPreps which has ranked Ramona as high as 25th in the state this year. It takes a big team to turn on the Friday Night Lights but those lights would be a waste of electricity if the community of Ramona didn’t show up and watch the action under the lights. This community shows up at home and on the road. Most of the time Ramona has more fans in attendance at away games than the home team. The Dawg Pound is the Ramona Bulldog football team’s address but every gridiron in America is its home.

Seven Bulldog tennis players advance to CIF By BILL TAMBURRINO At the Valley League Singles and Doubles Tournament, seven Bulldog girls earned the right to advance to the CIF Singles and Doubles Tournament. “This has to be one of the largest contingents to advance to the CIF Tournament from Ramona High School. Seven Lady Bulldogs will advance,” said an elated Coach Matt McCormick. Three individuals will move on to the CIF singles tournament. Jessica Failla cruised through the Valley League tournament and won the individual championship. The University of Southern California-bound junior is the first Lady Bulldog to earn a league championship. “Jessica has had an amazing season, she has not lost a set and only has given up two games the entire season. She is a champion in every sense of the word. She works hard, plays hard and she has a very good chance to win the CIF individual championship,“ said McCormick. Megan Douglass took third place in the Valley League and will advance to the CIF tournament. Caroline Lopresti, who played mostly doubles during the regular season, entered the Valley League Singles tournament and came in fifth place to earn a berth in the CIF tourney. Doubles play has been a strength during dual matches and the Lady Dawg doubles teams continued to shine in the Valley League tournament. The team of Lauren Dunker and Rebecca Vaca battled to the semifinals. The semifinal match took two days to complete and the team originally was declared in third place but McCormick protested on the basis of a technicality and they were then declared tied for second place. Cassidy Owens and Danielle Vizcarra advanced to the semifinals and then took third place. Both doubles teams will
move on to the CIF tourney. “The girls all played hard and performed incredibly well. We will now practice for the CIF tournament that will take place at the Barnes Tennis Center from Nov. 12 to the 16. Any fan of tennis would be amazed at the quality of play and the excellent venue at the Barnes Tennis Center.

liams said of last week’s game. The Water Dawgs were scheduled to compete in the playoffs Wednesday, Nov. 13, against La Costa Canyon at Rancho Bernardo High School. The winner of that game will play Scripps Ranch Friday at La Jolla High School. At the Nov. 5 game against Rancho Bernardo, the Broncos scored both first-period goals. “Missed a couple of good early man-up opportunities,” Williams said. With about 2-1/2 minutes remaining in the second quarter the Bulldogs scored to narrow the margin to 2-1, but two Rancho Bernardo goals in the period’s final 40 seconds gave the Broncos a 4-1

halftime lead. “It was just poor defense,” said Williams. Early in the third period Ramona scored on a fivemeter penalty shot to create a 4-2 score, although Rancho Bernardo scored the other four goals in the quarter. In addition to the successful penalty shot, Ramona had three power plays in the third quarter, so the Bulldogs were unsuccessful on all five man-up situations. Ramona also scored its fourth-period goal on a penalty shot. The loss gave Ramona a final regular-season record of 14-13, including a 4-1 Valley League mark, which was worth second place in the final season standings. “It was a good lesson,” Williams said of the defeat. “Hopefully it’s a good wake-up call for us that we can’t just show up in the pool.”

He was also the first finisher in the junior varsity boys race at the Southern California Invitational meet Oct. 19. “He’s decided to commit to running full-time,” Albanese said. “I’m excited about that, and I think he has a lot of potential.” Ramona also had the third overall boys finisher with Matt Meskell posting a time of 18:19. Colin McNulty placed eighth at 18:41 and Danny Edwards was 10th with a time of 18:47. A Valley League cluster meet was held at Kit Carson Park on Oct. 31. Sutter and Edwards both finished that meet’s junior varsity race in 18:31 with Sutter placing third and Edwards finishing fourth. Edwards also plays soccer and took a cleat to the foot during the week between the two races. “He could have been pretty close to Jackson had he not had to run through the foot pain,” Albanese said.

Adam Ramirez was the 42nd finisher 21:19 after the start of the race. Angel Perez placed 45th with a time of 21:35. Because only four Ramona girls ran in the JV league meet, the Bulldogs did not obtain a team score in the girls race. “Those that did run ended up running pretty well,” Albanese said. The girls course was 2.7 miles. Anna Sundrud was Ramona’s first finisher, placing fifth overall at 20:22. Lucia Hernandez finished seventh with a time of 20:47. Nicole Pshsnychniak took 11th place 22:00 after the starter’s gun was fired. Aixa Garcia-Cedillo was the 22nd finisher and spent 23:51 racing. In the league cluster meet’s JV girls race Hernandez had a time of 21:28, which means she dropped 41 seconds at the JV league meet. Garcia-Cedillo improved her time from 25:54, equating to a drop of 2:03. “Lucia and Aixa had standout performances,” Albanese said.
