Survey shows support for a school bond By MAUREEN ROBERTSON If Ramona Unified School District held a school bond election today, it would pass, results of a survey conducted March 5-7 show. Greg Isom of Isom Advisors, shared survey results with trustees at their March 13 meeting. The survey of 400 registered voters reflecting district demographics

shows a 60 percent favorable response. State law requires 55 percent voter approval for a school bond to pass. After asking about specific projects on which to spend bond money, survey respondents registered 51.5 percent Yes and 8.5 percent Lean Yes. Among proposed projects garnering the most support are: repair or replace leaky roofs, reno-

vate classrooms to accommodate vocational education programs, create a technology and computer endowment, repair or replace old plumbing systems, make health and safety and handicapped accessibility improvements, and modernize outdated classrooms, restrooms and school facilities. Presented with three choices — $60, $50 or $45 per $100,000 of assessed property value per year

respondents preferred $45, — with 49.5 percent in favor. When the options were presented per month — $5/$4/$3.75 — that favorable response was nearly 8 percent higher, 60.4 percent. The majority believe the district provides a quality education, and voters understand that good schools mean better property valSee BOND on page 6

Ramona tax preparer pleads not guilty to 55 charges, including murder-for-hire plot Judge sets trial for Sept. 5 in federal court By NEAL PUTNAM A Ramona tax preparer was indicted by a federal grand jury on 55 charges including a murder-forhire plot in which he tried to hire a hit man to kill three witnesses involving his previous case for allegedly filing false tax returns. Steve Martinez, 50, appeared Monday before U.S. District Court Judge William Hayes, who set a trial date for Sept. 5. On March 15, Martinez stood before U.S. District Court Magistrate Judge Mitchell Dembin in an orange jump suit and he gave a clear response to the magistrate when he was asked to enter his plea. “Your honor, not guilty,” said Martinez in a loud,

clear voice. Martinez was arrested March 2 on suspicion of witness tampering of two women in the alleged murder-for-hire plot, but Assistant U.S. Attorney Joseph Orabona told the magistrate he is now accused of trying to kill three witnesses. The third alleged victim is believed to be the husband of one of the two witnesses. Besides the witness tampering, Martinez is charged with soliciting a crime of violence involving a murder-for-hire plot involving interstate commerce, six counts of mail fraud, 11 counts of fraudulent use of a Social Security number, and 11 counts of aggravated identity theft. He also pleaded not guilty to money laundering, and 16 counts of procuring or filing a false tax return. Most of the counts were part of his earlier case when he was charged in April 2011. “He’s a flight risk, a dan-

ger to the community,” said the prosecutor, adding that Martinez had allegedly offered to pay $100,000 to an ex-employee for the proposed murders. The three alleged victims are not named in this article as requested by the prosecutor. They do not live in Ramona. Since they were already witnesses, they will have to testify at Martinez’s trial. Dembin ordered Martinez held without bail in the Metropolitan Correctional Center. Before his arrest, Martinez had been free on $350,000 bond, and the magistrate noted he had complied with all reporting conditions. The prosecutor on Monday also announced his office will be going forward to collect some or all of the previous $350,000 bond that Martinez had

posted before his arrest on March 2. A hearing to discuss forfeiture of any cash from that bond was set for May 21. Martinez worked as an agent with the Internet Revenue Service at an Oceanside office from 1988 to 1992, according to court records. Martinez allegedly sought to have the three witnesses shot, but no actual murder attempt occurred. Martinez’s limousine driver, Norman Russell Thellmann, 64, of Santee, was arrested March 3 after FBI agents searched his home and found $42,400 in cash in a cereal box. Thellmann was alleged to be the man who would pay the hit man. Thellmann has pleaded not guilty to witness tampering charges and remains in the federal jail on $250,000 bail.

Last-minute letter forces Highland Valley Ranch continuance By JOE NAIMAN San Diego County Board of Supervisors heard public testimony March 14 on the proposed expansion of the Highland Valley Ranch group care facility for adults with traumatic brain injuries, but a letter challenging the adequacy of the project’s California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) compliance wasn’t received by the county until March 12. As a result, the supervisors continued their discussion until March 28 to allow time to analyze the letter. The unanimous vote for the continuance also included a directive to county staff to return to the supervisors with responses to issues raised during the public comment session including information on potential groundwater contamination and stormwater runoff, additional details on the cost to connect to the Ramona Municipal Water District sewer system, whether the facility is in compliance with its original major use permit, whether all alternatives have been evaluated, and whether a registered sex offender has ever been among the facility’s residents. “I think we’ll have all the infor-

Three members of Ramona’s planning group addressed their concerns to the county supervisors. “Package treatment plants should be used only in extreme cases,” said planning group Chair Jim Piva. “We believe this will be precedent-setting. I think we’re opening Pandora’s box and I’m concerned we’re going to get hit up with a lot more of these package treatment plants.” County staff recommended rejection of the on-site treatment plant in favor of connection to the sewer system, which has an estimated $2 million cost. A 1.3-mile extension of the sewer line would also disrupt approximately 6,700 feet of local roadway during construction. Local Agency Formation Commission approval would be required to give the Ramona water district latent powers to provide sewer service to the area.

Supervisors look for ways to rid county of feral pigs San Diego County Board of Supervisors are looking for ways of getting rid of an estimated 150 wild pigs countywide. Feral pigs are not native to the area. The rooting creatures can tear up oak seedlings and crops, pollute streams and spread diseases, according to authorities. The progenitors of the local population are believed to be a Russian variety of pig that was released in the San Diego

River watershed about four years ago by someone raising them on the Capitan Grande Indian Reservation. Most of the pigs have been found on publicly owned land managed by

the Cleveland National Forest, California State Parks, the San Diego Public Utilities District, and the Barona and Viejas tribal reservations. Some hunters and wildlife experts have put the San Diego County

population closer to 300. “There’s a growing problem in our backcountry that could easily spread throughout the region — and it’s called feral pigs,” Supervisor Dianne Jacob said at the board’s March 14 meeting. The pigs can transmit diseases to livestock and humans via contaminated water or when they are eaten, said Scott Tremor of the San Diego Natural History Museum. Robert Scheid of the In-

Reported attempted robbery leads to arrest of 2 men Sheriff’s deputies arrested two men in the Stater Bros parking lot last Thursday morning after a woman told authorities her husband was running from a man who had fired a gun in the backyard of their home in the 200 block of

a burgundy-colored Jeep, said Rylaarsdam. The incident occurred at 11:23 a.m. A short time later deputies located an eastbound Jeep in the 1600 block of Main Street. The vehicle stopped in the grocery store parking lot. Since the woman had reported that a gun was used, deputies initiated a high-risk vehicle stop and detained the occupants, said Rylaarsdam. Further investigation revealed that the suspects, Chris Acheson, 26, and Mark Viehman, 42, had gone to the victim’s residence where Acheson produced what the victim

believed was a handgun while demanding cash, according to the sheriff’s report. Deputies were unable to locate any weapons at the initial crime scene, in the suspects’ possession, or inside the Jeep. Acheson and Viehman were arrested and booked into San Diego Central Jail on suspicion of attempted robbery. Viehman also was arrested for driving under the influence, said Rylaarsdam.

ter-Governmental Group on Feral Pig Impacts said the pigs could start breeding with colonies in Riverside County and Baja California, and tackling the problem then would be more expensive. “Feral pigs are just furry four-legged biological time bombs and, if we allow their populations to explode, we will be spending enormous amounts of money and resources,” Scheid said. Scheid said professional hunters could use traps, shoot them from helicopters, or use dogs to track and hunt them down, in coordination with traditional hunters, he said. “We have the benefit of having a relatively small population and an isolated population that we believe, through speaking with experts, can be eradicated,” Scheid said. “But the window of opportunity is closing every day that these pigs are populating in San Diego County.” Eradication efforts could

include legislation designating the pigs, currently considered a game species, a pest. That would allow hunters more ways of killing them and would give governments more funding options, he said. Environmental documents were being processed by California State Parks and the U.S. Forest Service for the development of a feral pig management program. “We have an opportunity to create a template in San Diego County on how to get ahead of the curve,” Scheid said. The board voted 5-0 to request staff to continue to stay involved and to report back with updates, including legislative and funding opportunities. Jacob said it was logical for state and federal agencies to take the lead on any actions that would take place. Authorities have discussed options for controlling the wild pigs for more than a year.

another district. Because of student test scores at Hanson Elementary, the school is in the third year of Program Improvement, a federal No Child Left Behind plan to help improve scores. Faced with replacing Appleman, the district chose Grace, a veteran principal at a school with similar demographics to Hanson, and trustees were scheduled to vote on the transfer at their March 13 meeting. “If you look at her test results, we have the data there to show that she can certainly increase student learning,” Cathy Pierce, assistant superintendent of Education Services, said earlier in the month. “Isn’t there an alternative option to help Hanson, a school in need, without sacrificing the progress and momentum at Mt. Woodson?” asked teacher Leslie Wilson. Teacher Adrienne Mo-

Motta

Jami, also volunteer there. According to Deputy Craig Chamberlin, a spokesperson for the Spokane County Sheriff’s Department, Motta was attacked by a partygoer while trying to break up a party at his neighbors’ house Saturday night, March 10. The neighbor was out of town and had asked Motta to clear out the party. An 18-year-old suspect with gang affiliations was arrested on an assault charge, officials reported. He reportedly showed no remorse for his actions in a television interview recorded before Motta’s death. The charge could be upgraded to a murder charge due to Motta’s death. Motta, 65, was an Air Force veteran who served in the Vietnam War. He had a career in education that lasted over 30 years. He was an English teacher, football coach, assistant principal, principal, and assistant superintendant. Mel Galli, who retired from the Ramona Unified

reland suggested the district consider other options for increasing student achievement at Hanson. “Mt. Woodson could become a sister school, mentoring and sharing and collaborating programs we have found successful at our site,” said Moreland. Educator Damen Lopez of TurnAround Schools inspired Mt. Woodson teachers at their staff development day last year, said teacher Roberta Nau, and they decided to follow the program. “We are halfway through this journey, but we cannot do it without Theresa Grace,” said Nau, explaining that research shows that “no school can become truly great unless a maverick leader is at the helm.” Grace has studied and is committed to the turnaround school model, which embraces a culture of universal achievement, said Nau. From page 1

School District after working as a teacher, coach, athletic director, and assistant principal, said he worked with Motta at several schools. “I was a junior varsity coach at Workman High School in La Puente and Frank was a first year teacher,” said Galli. “He asked if he could be my assistant coach. He was so energetic and such a hard worker. When I got my first varsity job in Granger, Wash., he came with me as a varsity assistant. When I moved to Othello, Wash., he also remained on my staff. “Ironically, he came to Ramona as our principal when I was a varsity football coach. He mentored me and got me into administration. “He got totally involved in everything he did. He didn’t do anything halfway. At times he rubbed people the wrong way, but you always knew where he stood and what he stood for. He was an educator and a humanitarian. I bet that he went all out helping those vets in Washington.”

Several Mt. Woodson teachers and other employees arrive early for the March 13 trustee meeting.

“We are in the midst of creating a truly exceptional school, and the loss of Theresa Grace will bring that to an end,” she added. Later in the meeting, before voting on a packet of personnel recommendations, the trustees pulled Grace’s name from the list. “I find myself in a quandary with this item, because it’s very easy to see why we have a public that doesn’t want to lose Theresa,” said Dan Lopez, board president. Superintendent Robert Graeff cautioned the g

trustees about discussing personnel issues in open session, explaining that employees have rights. “I’m not sure this is an open session conversation,” he said. “...I think, if the board wants to debate this topic, it’s probably more appropriate, under the law, as a closed session item.” At the conclusion of other business on their agenda, trustees went into closed session at 10:25 p.m. and returned at 11:53 with their announcement that Grace will stay at Mt.

ues, Isom said. Seven or eight years ago, everyone’s property value was increasing, even in districts with low test scores, said RUSD Board President Dan Lopez. “The value of schools now, more than anything, plays a big deal in our property values — and that resonates with nonstudent households,” said Lopez. What Trustee Rodger Dohm likes about a local bond is “it’s an opportunity to use our money in Ramona for what we want it to be.” “We have control over it,” he said, commenting that he’s frustrated with taxes, “because it’s spent not the way I want it to be spent.” With a local bond, “we get to choose, this community. It’s going to be spent right here,” he said. Isom agreed, saying that people prefer local measures over statewide. “By law, all the money that’s passed here has to be spent here,” said Isom. “There’s a citizens oversight committee to make sure the bond money is being spent how you said it’s going to be spent.” Isom, who admitted he had expected survey results to be less favorable, said his firm has seen changes in attitude in traditionally conservative districts such as

Ramona. “I think people are starting to see this value of local control,” he said, citing a district in Shasta County that has been surveyed twice. Two years ago that district’s survey showed only 52 percent support for a bond. “Just got the survey back yesterday, and it’s now 62 percent, so a lot changes in two years,” he said. Responding to Lopez’s question about cost, Isom said “the only cost that the district is going to incur from now till probably election day is the cost of putting this on the ballot.” Most bonds are for 25 or 30 years, he said, responding to another question and noting that no bond term was given in the survey. The next step is to assess community leaders and other stakeholders to determine their support for a school bond measure on the November 2012 ballot, said Isom. “Elections are won on the Lean Yes, Undecided, Lean No,” said Isom. “We know that you have 50 percent of your voters Yes, no matter what. A third of them are saying, I’m a No. It’s the fight for that middle ground.”

During the nearly 90-minute closed session, those who remained shared bottles of water Ramona Teachers Association President Donna BrayeRomero got from her car, they ate snacks from the vending machine, and they talked about why they attended the meeting, without Grace’s knowledge. “She even picks up the trash in the cafeteria,” said Debbie Morton, Mt. Woodson’s lead kitchen manager, munching on Goldfish crackers. “She’s a phenomenal leader, she’s one of the best,” Trustee Rodger Dohm said of Grace as everyone left, adding, “We want to make sure that both schools are sitting good for the kids.” “In an effort to support the requests of the local school community, the board agreed that Mrs. Grace’s continued presence on that campus would be in the best interest of the district,” Graeff wrote in an email to district employees early the next morning. The board authorized Graeff to advertise in and out of the district for Appleman’s replacement. Applications for the job, with an annual salary range of $99,335 to $118,080, will be accepted until 3 p.m. on Friday, April 20, according to the district website.

Business News New Shop offers a little bit of something for everyone By JESSICA KING Whether it’s a cool-looking piece of handmade silver jewelry or a guide to eastern religion, the newly opened Unicorn Books and Gifts offers a little bit of something for everyone. Owner Stacy Bart opened the shop at 780 Main St., next to Ramona Tan, earlier this year. “I was looking for a shop like this in town and there was none … and so when the opportunity arose, I thought I’m just going to do it,” Bart explained. “I’m going to have that eclectic, kind of funky place that I love.” Unicorn Books and Gifts opened on Jan. 15 and Bart is still working on adding to her inventory. “Pretty much what the store is, is everything I like,” said Bart. In addition to sterling silver jewelry and new and

used books, the shop carries crystals, soaps, lotions, bags, fashion jewelry, greeting cards, and much more. When selecting merchandise, Bart pays special attention to where it was made and the quality. Whenever possible, she likes to carry work from local artists. “I work really hard to keep it local, and recycled items are big for me, too,” said Bart. According to Bart, the coolest thing that she carries are Grow-a-note greeting cards, made with wildflower seeds so, when the receiver is done reading the card, he or she can plant the card in the ground and watch it grow. Though quality and uniqueness are in the forefront of Bart’s mind as she selects her products, she also pays attention to price so shoppers with all kinds of budgets can enjoy Uni-

Ruling supports proposal to opt-out of ‘smart meters’

an Diego Gas & Electric customers who don’t want the new wireless smart meters at their homes might be allowed to keep the older analog models, but they’ll have to pay more, according to a proposal by a California Public Utilities Commission administrative law judge. The ruling by Amy YipKikugawa on March 15 grants a request by the San Diego-based Utility Consumers Action Network to modify SDG&E’s smart meter program. Opponents of the smart meters express concerns over perceived health risks and privacy issues.

The judge proposed that, since SDG&E will incur additional costs in carrying both types of meters, customers who opt for analog meters should pay $75 up front and an extra $10 monthly. Consumers in the California Alternate Rates for Energy program would be charged $10 initially and $5 more per month. Those charges can be adjusted in the future when SDG&E’s cost-recovery requirements are determined. The judge’s decision will not be imposed on the utility immediately. After 30 days, the CPUC can adopt it in whole or part, or reject it.

corn Books and Gifts. “I’m working really hard to make sure this isn’t that expensive little shop in Ramona,” said Bart. The mother-of-two also taps her 13-year-old daughter for ideas to reach all levels of taste when selecting merchandise. “Sara’s Corner” is a spot in the shop that Bart uses to showcase the more trendy,

fashion-forward jewelry designs selected by her daughter, Sara. On Saturdays, Bart invites an Angel Card reader to come in and meet oneon-one with people. Similar to Tarot cards, the readings cost $20 for a 20- to 30-minute session and can be done as a means of fun, unique entertainment, or for guidance for those who

truly believe in the practice. Bart said she wants to do more things like that, and she may start a book club soon. “My goal here is really more about uplifting people,” said Bart, who loves to offer her clientele tea while they shop. Her personal philosophy for fulfillment centers on yoga, a plant-based

diet, and what she calls “enough.” By “enough,” Bart means figuring out what you need to be happy and content, and focusing on that, keeping positive rather than negative energy around. Unicorn Books and Gifts is not Bart’s first venture into business. She founded Ramona Business Consultants upon moving to town about six years ago, when her husband relocated for work. As a consultant, Bart helps small businesses with their marketing and computer needs. Armed with her past experiences in marketing and computer needs, Bart has created a website for the shop, unicornbooksandgifts.com. Among other things, she uses the site to share wellness articles she thinks might interest her clientele and to feature products carried in her shop.

Paying through the nose for imported water By PAM SLATER-PRICE and BILL HORN

an Diego County residents are paying too much for a valuable liquid, and it’s not just gasoline. It’s imported water. Nearly 3.1 million local consumers — that’s most of us — are paying too much for imported water. We pay a premium to purchase and transport it from Northern California and the Colorado River. And we entrust the powerful water agencies that bring us imported water to charge us fairly. But at least one of them isn’t. The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California is grossly overcharging our regional wholesaler, the San Diego County Water Authority, exposing ratepayers to tens of millions of dollars annually in disproportionate costs. This is money right out of your pocket. The dollar figures are alarming. In a lawsuit, the Water Authority estimates that Met’s overcharges will total $40 million this year and could climb to $2.1 billion by 2047. As a result, the county Board of Supervisors last week adopted a resolution supporting the Water Authority in its court fight. With our action, we joined the cities of San Diego, Escondido, Oceanside, Poway, and Del Mar and at least 10 local water districts that are siding with the Water Authority. Also supporting the Water Authority are the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce, Downtown San Diego Partnership and the San Diego County Taxpayers Association. To understand our collective outrage, here is the background: The sprawling Metropolitan Water District of Southern California serves 26 “member agencies” in Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, Riverside, San Bernardino, and San Diego counties. Among those agencies, only the San Diego County Water Authority pays Met a separate fee to transport its independent water supply. The source of that supply is the Colorado River, and the Water Authority gains access to it through long-term agreements with the Imperial Irrigation District See GUEST EDITORIAL on page 9

Come on down April 5 & protect your wallet By DIANE CONKLIN

hat will it take for the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to deny San Diego Gas & Electric’s request that you and I pay for their fires? I have thought a lot about this question and have come to this conclusion: It will take the people of San Diego County, thousands of them, to email, call, write, and participate in the process. And one of the most important and most accessible ways to participate is to join with neighbors and friends and “Come on down” to the April 5th public hearing and tell the commission yourself what you think of this plan. Now it’s bad enough that SDG&E wants us, its customers, to pay for its uninsured wildfire costs in the future (read forever), but it has also added into the mix $594 million they have paid for the 2007 fires for uninsured costs. This is a strange strategy because SDG&E has claimed all along at the commission — read the last

Guest Commentary two and a half years — that its insurance problem stemmed from the 2007 fires. That is, they say their insurance companies don’t want to insure them like they used to (by the way we pay for their insurance, too). But what kind of insurance problem did they have before the 2007 fires? Their own problem. They obviously didn’t buy enough insurance. So, naturally, because they didn’t see the problem coming (though they should have) and because they didn’t buy enough insurance (though they should have) and because they now have to pay $594 million (a number that has grown over a hundred million dollars from earlier last year) out of their own deep SEMPRA Energy pockets, they say you should pay it — about $300 per household. And believe you me, SEMPRA (which owns SDG&E) and SDG&E itself plan for you to pay, and pay, and pay for their fire mistakes. This scheme they’ve cooked up — called

the Wildfire Expense Balancing Account — will mean, if approved by the CPUC, that you will even pay when they are in the wrong. That’s how SDG&E wrote it. So why do they think that they will get away with this? I’ve thought lots about that too and here’s what I’ve come to: They think they will get away with this because you don’t care, you can’t go, you have work, you have plans, it’s too hard, you don’t know the issues, and — finally — even if you come, you may be told what you can and cannot say. Why? Because the assigned commissioner (one of five on the CPUC) wrote a ruling saying that in this meeting he is allowing the public to comment on whether the uninsured 2007 fires costs should be included in the WEBA mechanism. Not about the entire application on the table for you to pay and pay and pay ad infinitum into the future. Nope. You are supposed to talk about the 2007 fires. But that would be a big mistake. Why? Because if the 2007 uninsured fire bill ends up being hundreds of millions of dollars charged to you, you can bet your boots that the future fires into infinity will cost you, your family, your burned out neighbors, and your larger community much, much more. Why? See COMMENTARY on page 9

Sentinel Reader Opinion Teachers thank board, administration for listening, changing their minds

pen Letter to the Ramona School Board, Dr. Robert Graeff, and Cabinet: The Mt. Woodson learning community would like to thank you for genuinely listening to our comments and concerns at the board meeting held Tuesday, March 13. It is rare to hear of representative governing board members seriously considering the opinions of their constituents and having the strength and courage to publicly change their minds like you did. Since our administrator had no knowledge of our intention to appeal to you, your decision is even more impressive, because it means that you responded to a community-based request. Your willingness to listen and consider our vantage point was truly impressive, and we would like our entire district to be aware of the integrity, character, and commitment you

and the federal government. Water from those agreements comprises 25 percent of San Diego County’s current supply portfolio. But getting that water — millions of gallons of it — from Imperial Valley to San Diego County requires the use of Metropolitan’s pipelines and pumps. Metropolitan charges the Water Authority for its so-called “transportation costs.” That’s fair. What’s not fair are the unrelated charges, including the cost of Met’s own water supplies, that Met tacks onto the Water Authority’s bill. In other words, local consumers are paying Metropolitan for water that the Water Authority purchases independently. That means we pay an inflated transportation cost, which in turn subsidizes the g

Commentary

Because why would SDG&E care about starting fires if you are going to pay for them? What safety precautions would they take, other than minimal precautions, because they have a blank check from you? And, meanwhile, you and yours, me and mine, everyone in the backcountry will see their beloved mountains and meadows, homes and communities burned over and over and over because SDG&E won’t worry — but you should. So, I guess it’s clear that you should go. Now what should you talk about? You might want to talk about how everyone should be responsible for their conduct, and that includes corporations. When a business succeeds, the investors should profit, but when it makes mistakes, investors should pay — not customers. That we don’t want SDG&E causing more fires in the backcountry, so this plan is bad because it will lead to less incentive for them

Collaboration very clearly occurred at that board meeting. Together we can accomplish anything.

Refunds would go to the 24 retail water agencies and cities within the county and, by extension, their ratepayers. A case management hearing for the lawsuit is scheduled for April 11.

derstanding about the Ramona Grassland Preserve. People are acting as though they believed that the Nature Conservancy, a huge organization with thousands of projects worldwide, had saved and donated our little grassland for the sole enjoyment of Ramona residents. Preserve means keep safe from danger or spoilage. Reserve means save for future use. Conserve means keep from wasting. Conservation means planned management of natural resources. Housewives: What happens to the food you have taken so much trouble to preserve if you don’t put lids on the jars? Athletes: What happened if you don’t conserve a little energy for the end of the race? Gardeners: How long does Stay OFF the Grass deter the general public, even if there are laws? Our Ramona Grassland is like the Albertine Rift in Africa, teeming with unstudied plants and animals. That very rich-

ness that attracted people is now gone, trampled into dirt by the general public. The Nature Conservancy discovered and rescued into our care the Ramona Grassland because it is a unique community of teeming unstudied biodiversity so fragile that hardly any others like it are left. The Enjoy-It-Now Ramonans are not bad people. They just don’t understand. Before it was discovered, our grassland was a largely ignored piece of private property with a fence around it. It would take a miracle, but if only it could be restored to private property with a fence around it; the private property of Ramona’s great-great-great grandchildren. With their new technology and greater understanding, they would thank us for our vision. Or will they sadly regret our human, enjoy-it-now short-sightedness? Edalee Orcutt Harwell Ramona

GUEST COMMENTARY

Cuts should be outside the classroom By SCOTT MILNER

or more than 25 years I and my family have been residents of Ramona. Ramona’s school system helped prepare our daughter, Tifany, for UCSD, medical school and law school. Clearly, the platform for her record of achievement at the university level was the education she received in Ramona. Now, our two little grandchildren are students at James Dukes Elementary. We want them to also get the opportunity to receive a high quality education in Ramona. But I am fearful that growth of the non-classroom expenses is stripping away resources that are essential for their education. A quick look at the district’s current budget will show that of the $46+ million, less than $4 million goes to books and supplies, while about $24 million covers classroom teachers, and supervisors. Of the nearly 50 percent remaining, well over 70 percent is spent on salaries and benefits for the superintendent, three assistant superintendents, other support staff, and non-education related personnel. As an example, for approximately 220 days of work each year, the average assistant superintendent makes over $136,000. Although the incumbents may be highly trained and skilled in their profession, can we afford to have three of them on the staff? Would the education our children receive be better and more assured if we replaced each of them with

two skilled and experienced teachers? Most of our hard working community members earn far less than an assistant superintendent and yet work more days each year. Although I have placed multiple phone calls to the office of our district superintendent, Bob Graeff, I have been unsuccessful in learning his pay and benefits, though it is public information. I’m certain it is in excess of $200,000 per year. It is time for all of us to be highly critical of “over staffing” and growth of the non-essential expenses associated with our school district. For the benefit of our children, we need to set a goal of taking not less than 80 percent of the district revenue into the classroom. Of the remaining 20 percent, no more than half should be used for the front office staff and administrative office staff. Unlike our out of control federal government, the Ramona Unified School District is accountable to us. Our school board and superintendent can complain all they want about the sources of our budget deficit being lack of state money and the failure of the unions to accept less. But I contend that a top down review needs to be conducted, even if by a citizens’ committee, to substantially trim noneducation related expenses before any cuts are made to the classroom teachers. Our children’s and our grandchildren’s futures demand it. Scott F. Milner is a Ramona resident.

Snow closes Julian schools Monday The tail end of the last storm of the winter season moved eastward across San Diego County early Monday, dropping more rainfall and snow in the region. Before the storm cleared out completely on Monday, it dropped more rain in coastal and valley areas, and up to four inches of additional snow in the mountains, where the snow level was at 2,500 feet, according to the National Weather Service.

A winter weather advisory originally set to expire at 9 a.m. Monday for the mountains was extended to 1 p.m. Affected areas included Boulevard, Campo, Cuyamaca, Descanso, Julian, Lake Henshaw, Mount Laguna, Pine Valley, Santa Ysabel, and Warner Springs. In addition to snow, wind gusts up to 35 miles per hour were in the mountains Monday morning, the Weather Service advised. Schools in the Julian and

Mountain Empire Unified school districts were closed Monday due to snow. In the far reaches of East County, Interstate 8 was closed in both directions from East Willows Road to Imperial Highway due to hazardous road conditions until around 9 a.m. The NWS reported as of 4:30 a.m., March 20, that the storm — which struck Saturday morning — had dropped a total of 1.83 inches of rain in Ramona, 1.14 inches in Vis-

versarial condition in the neighborhood,” he said. “People should have some security in the zoning of the area they purchased land in,” said planning group member and secretary Kristi Mansolf. “If a package treatment plant is needed to expand, then maybe the expansion is too intense for the area.” Planning group member Dennis Sprong hopes that the county will at least consider mitigation measures if it approves the project. “I think there is a significant safety increase by adding that turn pocket,” he said, adding that the gate should be set back so that the largest vehicle entering or existing would not block Highland Valley Road. The proposed permit conditions include improving Highland Valley Road to a graded width of 35 feet from the centerline and an improved width of 25 feet and to grant a road easement for a 35-foot width from the centerline. A 10-foot wide trail along Highland Valley Road would also be dedicated. The additional buildings would create a 3.3 percent lot coverage, which is consistent with large rural lots. Project consultant James Greco told the supervisors that, if three large homes were built on the property, the lot coverage could be between 25,000 and 30,000 square feet. Greco said that the Mount Woodson development originally had a package treatment plant but annexed to the Ramona water district when sewer service became available. “We are pleased to do that as well if it becomes feasible,” Greco said. The age of the current Highland Valley Ranch residents ranges from 19 to 72, with the average age 48. “Everybody needs somewhere to be, someone to live, and something to do,” said chief executive officer and founder Kevin O’Connor. “My

clients are people who are trying to regain some sense of normal life.” O’Connor said that the recent war has led to an increase in traumatic brain injuries. “The brain-damaged are growing and living longer, and there is a tremendous need for programs such as ours,” he said. Scott Bailey was a junior on the El Segundo High School football team in 1969 when he was injured making a tackle. “I’m just so thankful that I’ve got a place,” he said of Highland Valley Ranch. Highland Valley Road resident Ruth Barnett is concerned that runoff will eventually flow to Lake Hodges. “This is way too intense an expansion,” she said. Sandee Salvatore, also a Highland Valley Road resident, told the supervisors that additional facilities should be built closer to services in town. “It’s about where Mr. O’Connor builds his facility,” she said. “There are large lots for sale that Mr. O’Connor could move his facility to.” Salvatore noted the rural nature of the Hidden Valley area. “I like to see the moon and the stars,” she said. “I

don’t want to be invaded by a lighted parking lot.” The Salvatores use well water and also fear contamination of that source. “Our water tests better than the water district,” said Jim Salvatore. Jim Salvatore built convalescent facilities before his retirement. “All my facilities were in commercial areas next to medical facilities,” he said. “This is not the proper area for that.” Jack Allen and his wife purchased their Highland Valley Road property in 1974. “We want the integrity of our community saved,” he said. “It’s not a residence. It’s a residential facility,” said Highland Valley Road resident Lisa LeFors. “The scope is beyond the caring use of the land.” Nancy Goodman noted that the gymnasium would be 6,500 square feet while a two-story residence built on the site would be limited to 5,000 square feet. Goodman also noted the inability to access Highland Valley Road during the October 2007 Witch Fire. “Evacuating them when the next fire comes through would be a disaster,” she said.

Sometimes it’s hard to make sense out of life. One clever soul put it this way: I think that the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get that out of the way, then live 20 years in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young,

you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work 40 years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You go to college until you’re ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a little child, you play, you have no responsibilities. You become a little baby, you go

Our Mission at Adobe Animal Hospital: Adobe Animal Hospital is devoted to providing the best medical, surgical, and emergency care available in veterinary medicine. As important as our medical expertise is, we believe that excellent care combines state-of-the-art veterinary medicine and surgery with a focus on compassion and respect for your pet and your family. Our goal is to provide quality care in an individual and personalized manner.

We feel it is our inherent responsibility to continue to invest in our facility, equipment, continue to provide unequaled and unparalleled veterinary services for our present and future clients.

back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating, and you finish off as a gleam in your parents’ eyes. The Bible teaches us that we don’t have to figure life out on our own. The scriptures tell us that we have been made by God for God. We have an origin. We have a destiny. You matter much to God. Regardless of what the world may think of you, regardless of what your parents and friends may think of you, regardless of what you may think of you; your life is precious to God. Every person is precious to God. In fact, you have never looked into the eyes of another human being who didn’t matter to God. King David, in Psalm 139 put it this way: 13) For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother’s womb. 14) I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. . . 16) Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there were none of them. “Wonderfully made,” “intricately woven,” “unformed

substance.” All of these descriptive words speak of God being personally and intimately involved in the creation of every human life. “You knitted me together” in the Hebrew means “to weave,” “to embroider.” God put you together. You are a supernatural creative work of God. Just stop and think for just a moment. The chance that all of the functions of the individual human being would be the product of blind impersonal chance is a statistical monstrosity! Augustine observed: Men go abroad to wonder at the heights of mountains, at the huge waves of the sea, at the long courses of the rivers, at the vast compass of the ocean, at the circular motions of the stars; and they pass by themselves without wondering. Every person has in his or her body sufficient proof that God exists. To say that something as finely balanced and complex as the human body is the result of sheer blind, impersonal chance plus time is nothing short of ludicrous! Consider the miracle of the human body. The heart muscle itself beats over 100,000 times each day, pumping your blood cells through about 60,000 miles of blood vessels. It’s about 3,000 miles from the West Coast to the East Coast. We have enough blood vessels in our bodies to stretch from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic and back, 20 times. Webster’s Dictionary defines a miracle as an “extraordinary, unusual wonder or marvel.” Isn’t a bloodstream 60,000 miles alone in a small body an unusual wonder? Isn’t the journey of an oxygen atom through your bloodstream a true marvel? We don’t need supernatural events to experience a miracle. All we need to do is breathe. And this God, who is our maker, has a plan for our lives. We don’t have to live without direction and meaning. Life begins with God. Life is not lived all backwards. It is God—and knowing him that makes sense out of life. God is the inventor of life and we dare not separate the invention from the inventor. Charlie Youngkin, a Ramona resident, is the senior pastor of Mountain View Community Church.

National equine network to offer gelding clinic in Ramona By KAREN CARLSON My mustang, Cricket, and I want to get the word out in order to assist horse owners — The National Equine Resource Network (NERN) is an organization dedicated to strengthening the equine welfare industry through grant funding, low-cost gelding clinics, education, business development and more. Director Shirley Puga saw the need to help the equine community and horses directly through her work for Equine Rescues and she has devoted herself to just that. On Sunday, April 15, NERN will offer a low-cost gelding clinic at Creek Hollow

Ranch, 25279 Creek Hollow Drive, Ramona. The cost is $75. You must contact NERN to obtain an application. “The current economy has created a greater number of displaced horses, and this trend will likely continue for the next few years,” Puga stated in a news release. “By offering a low-cost gelding option to responsible owners, we can help reduce the number of new horses coming into the world during these trying times.” Contact NERN to take advantage of this affordable offering, by emailing nationalequine@gmail.com, visiting their website at nationalequine.org/index.html, or writing to: National Equine Resource Network, P.O. Box 235197, Encinitas, CA 92023.

Retiree, 58, wins with Mega Million lottery ticket purchased at Santa Ysabel gas station A 58-year-old retiree who just missed a massive Mega Millions jackpot with a ticket he bought at a Santa Ysabel filling station claimed his $326,163 prize on Monday, state lottery officials said. James Clark, whose residence was only given as San Diego County, matched all but the Mega

number in Friday night’s Mega Millions drawing. The winning numbers were 43, 51, 53, 29 and 28, with a Mega number of 7. No one has won the main jackpot recently, so it will grow to $241 million for the drawing this week, according to the lottery. The pool for those who

got all but the Mega number was nearly $1 million, and two others played the same numbers as Clark. Lottery officials reported that Clark, who purchased the ticket at Ramco Petroleum, 30351 Highway 78, told them he was still in shock and wasn’t sure yet what to do with his windfall.

Equine population — Ramona is NOT a one horse town

s an equestrian and trails advocate in Ramona I ponder horse related topics constantly. Our current economic state has created so many issues for horse owners such as the number of homeless horses increasing dramatically in the past three years across the nation, the cost of hay going up 125 percent (and climbing) since 2008, gas prices that are incredibly unaffordable, more expensive veterinary care — and the list goes on. All of this has really earned my attention and concern, so I started to dig

into what the United States and especially California — and, more locally, Ramona — looks like so far as horse population and economics are concerned. I found some interesting and amazing information: All of the following information was gathered between 2005 and 2007 and is the most recent information I have been able to find. The United States has more than 9.5 million horses across the nation, according to Veterinary News, with California and Texas leading the way. Our nation owns more

horses than any other nation. The American Horse Council study (2005) concluded that recreational use (trail riding) is the number one and largest segment of use of the horse. I honestly suspected that racing or any sanctioned sport, or even showing would have represented the largest use of equines, so this fascinates me. Even closer to home, at the state level in a separate report I found that there are close to 700,000 horses in the state of California and that San Diego has more horses per capita than any county in the country. You may be wondering why I have chosen to write about this subject, so I’ll get to it. I’ve made assumptions about Ramona’s equine population based on my personal knowledge and beliefs for a long time and wanted to have more accurate information, something more concrete. Right here at home, in a recent survey (2007) of Ramona by the Ramona Equine Industry Network

(REIN), the trends follow right along the national and regional reports. Ramona residents surveyed did not include the large ranches or businesses where there are possibly hundreds of horses, but only included individual/ family residents. What the community survey showed is that Ramona has approximately 10,000 family owned or individually owned horses. The survey showed that on average people owned 3.92 horses — the respondents owned between one and 20 horses each. Of course these are averages, because no one can own .92 parts of a horse, but compare that with the Ramona Chamber of Commerce survey that shows the average Ramona household has 3.2 people living in it. Looks to me like most families have more horses — on average — than people. We can’t ever say that Ramona is a one horse town with this information. That many horses have to

have an impact economically — nationally and locally as well. he horse industry contributes approximately $7 billion a year to our economy and employs 130,200 in our state. In Ramona we all see as we drive around town that there are more feed stores than grocery stores, but what you may not be able to see or be aware of is all of the smaller hay cooperatives and family run feed businesses that those with horses know very well. The economic impact generated by horse owners is significant. The REIN survey estimates that equine owners contribute more than $10 million to our local economy in horse related goods such as feed and bedding. More than $11 million in horse related services such as farriers and veterinarians or trainers is also contributed to the local economy, keeping many of our friends and neighbors employed. Not only do horse owners make major contributions to our economy, but they also care about our community character. In the survey, residents were asked about community character, and results showed the number one thing horse owners care about and want to see in Ramona are trails and

pathways with cohesive connectivity. Ninety-five percent of respondents placed trails and pathways as their highest priority. Horse owners are interested in trails and pathways because the number one activity reported was recreational trail riding, just like the national surveys showed — go figure. More than half of the survey respondents commented in the survey, “Build more trails in Ramona,” as a top community improvement suggestion, followed by trail access, then trail connectivity. This is, of course, significant to me as a trail user and advocate. I am excited and renewed by all of this information. I knew that Ramona was not a one horse town, but I had no idea that there were so many thousands of equine up here on the hill or that the equestrian portion of our community contributed so much each year to our economy. Even with the economic downturn since 2003, horses are obviously important to Ramona residents, and I am very happy that I looked into the subject of horses and our economy and learned so much about our community to share with you.

Find Your Reason

e have learned one important fact through the years after working with so many different types of members: Those who stay and keep at it every day find that personal motivation helps them seek a more quality life, more satisfying work, and a reason to be fit. We are recognizing the power of personal motivation by sharing our Find Your Reason™ campaign. This is part of a national campaign that helps people identify their true personal motivations, those that are much deeper and more meaningful than just wanting to be in shape. People begin fitness programs for a variety of reasons, but it is those with strong personal ties that stick with it year after year. Your own personal motivation might be right in front of you and you never realized it. Maybe you work out now so that you’ll be there for your children when they need you the most. Maybe you work out for a spouse so that you can grow old together and enjoy an active retirement. Even that old picture in the drawer of you embarrassingly out of shape can be a powerful motivator if you use it correctly. I want you to go deeper and really get to the underlying root for why you want to get in shape. Your reason is not to lose 30 pounds, drop two sizes, or lose 3 inches in your waist. That is the outcome

you want to achieve not the reason. You have to keep asking yourself why. Say to yourself, “When I achieve this goal it will make me feel this, and in turn I will be a better person because x, y, or z.” Fill in the blanks and get detailed. From there I want you to get a picture that represents your reason. This could be one of yours, one from a magazine, or one you even draw. On the back of this picture I want you to write out your goal and your reason for achieving this goal in a clear and concise statement. Now post this reason for you to see multiple times per day either at your desk, on a lanyard, on your mirror in your bathroom, or on your car dash. Let it be known to others and get some good accountability. We feel strongly about helping people positively change their lives but, if someone is unsuccessful and leaves here without making change, then we have failed our mission. We are dedicating this year to helping every single person in Ramona find his or her personal strength and drive to make it the best year you have ever had. Find Your Reason this year, to live, to work, and to be fit. Take a look at these areas and start making some changes. Good luck and please check out my website www. ramonastrainer. com for articles, workouts, videos, and how you can get started on your path to you, only better!

Secret Maintenance?

I had a lady customer for years, and one day, she and her husband had decided to sell their home. It is customary and often required by lenders to pump and inspect the septic tank as a condition of a real estate sale. Finding all normal functions, I told her husband that everything appeared normal and thanks to proper maintenance this system was in great shape. Well, her husband told me that he never had the tank pumped and also that it never needed to be pumped. I told him that I had been servicing his septic tank every three years for the past 14 years. Then I noticed his wife standing behind him waving her hands, palms forward and fingers spread, shaking her head “NO” and displaying an exaggerated frown. It dawned on me that she had never told him. So I looked at her husband and said “perhaps I was thinking of the house next door.” Relieved the wife silently (really silently) backed away and disappeared. I don’t think her husband knew about that little display either. When I bought my second house in Ramona, I asked about the septic system. The builder and real estate agent both told me that septic systems take care of themselves and never needed servicing. I knew better after replacing the septic field on my previous house, for before I had it the tank had never been maintained. Today’s modern septic tanks are designed with large (18-24 inch) openings for servicing. The USDA, the State Water Board, and the county Health Department all recommend servicing septic tanks at least every 3 years. Some states and localities require pumping every 2 years or every 3 years. As with anything, maintenance will make it last much longer. Call us now for pumping, or later for repairs.

Brenna Brean sings in Carnegie Hall

amona High School sophomore Brenna Brean experienced what few teenagers do. She sang in Carnegie Hall in New York City. Brenna, daughter of Melissa and Johnny Brean, was selected to sing as part of the American High School Honors Choir on the stage of Carnegie Hall on Sunday, Feb. 12.

Ramona High School sophomore Brenna Brean was one of a select group of students chosen to sing on the Carnegie Hall stage.

The American High School Honors Performance Series at Carnegie Hall was established to showcase some of the most talented student performers in high schools across the country. Through an individual nomination and selection process, accomplished students are brought together in New York City to comprise the Honors Choir and Honors Instrumental ensembles. The program challenges the students to perform at their best. They rehearsed and performed under master conductor Dr. Jeffrey Ames. Invited representatives from col-

Bulldog golf beats defending state, CIF champ By BILL TAMBURRINO Coach Jerry Patenaude’s varsity golf team pulled off the biggest upset and biggest victory in the program’s history. The Bulldogs beat defending state and CIF champion Torrey Pines 189-191 at San Vicente Resort on Friday, March 16. Torrey Pines (13-1, 1-1) came into the match undefeated. The Falcons had not lost a match in over two years. The victory was even sweeter because Ramona lost to Poway in the Palomar League opener on March 15. The Dawgs are now 7-2 on the season and 1-1 in league matches. In the opening match of Palomar League play it was apparent that team depth would play a big role in deciding league matches. In Ramona’s 197-211 loss to Poway at Stoneridge Country Club, five golfers shared the medalist honors. Joe Fortunato and Ryan Graf both shot 38 for the Bulldogs while three Poway golfers — Max Alcorn, Drew Oslance and Tyler Schultz — also shot 38. In prep golf, six golfers play for each team and only the top five

scores count. If the match is tied, the sixth score for each team decides the winner. Ramona’s Christian Rajcic shot a 41, so his score went up against one of the 38 rounds shot by the Titans. Brandon Zane carded a 44 but the Titans fourth golfer, Chris

“We knew that we could beat them, and everybody came together and we did it.” —Coach Jerry Patenaude Dahms, shot a 41. Poway’s Chris Drum shot a 42, eight shots better than Tanner Angel’s 50. Depth again was the difference in Ramona’s upset of Torrey Pines. All five of the Falcon’s scoring golfers shot in the 30s. Ramona had three golfers shoot in the 30s. Zane and Rajcic shot 36 to share medalist honors with Tailin Song of Torrey Pines. Zane’s 36 was his best round of his career and he shaved eight strokes off his previous day’s score against Poway. Rajcic improved five strokes from his Poway card. Ryan Graf, the most consistent

golfer on the Bulldog team, shot a 37. Graf has shot in the 30s in every match he has played this year. Zane, Rajcic, and Graf’s scores gave the Dawgs a four stroke advantage in head-to-head play against the top three golfers from Torrey Pines. Fortunato and James Andrews both carded 40. Torrey Pines’ fourth and fifth golfers shot 39, so Ramona won the match by two strokes. “I am very proud of the team’s effort,” said Patenaude. “We knew that we could beat them, and everybody came together and we did it. Brandon (Zane) and Ryan (Graf) came through with PRs (personal bests). Christian (Rajcic) shot a great round. Joe and Mike (Fortunato and Andrews) also shot very well. It was a team effort. It had to be to beat a team like Torrey Pines.” Last Monday the Dawgs competed in the first round of the City Cup Invitational at Escondido Country Club and Rajcic had his best day as a Bulldog, shooting a blistering 66 on the par 70 course. Going into the final round, Rajcic has a four stroke lead over Justin Beck and Justin Hickey of La Costa Canyon.

Ramona spikers prevail over Aztecs Choy wins 2 track events in Bulldog loss to Fallbrook

By JOE NAIMAN A home match in last year’s CIF quarterfinals against Montgomery gave Ramona High School’s boys volleyball team its final win of the 2011 season. Ramona’s March 14 home match against the Aztecs gave the Bulldogs a 2-0 record for 2012. “The guys fought real hard, and they didn’t get frustrated,” said Coach Jeff Klauda. The playoff match saw Ramona win in three games. The Bulldogs needed four games to defeat the Aztecs in the pre-league competition as Montgomery overcame a deficit to take a 25-23 victory in the first game. “We had a decent lead for a lot of it, and then it got close at the end,” Klauda said. Ramona came back from one Montgomery lead to tie the game at 23 points apiece, but the Aztecs then got the sideout

and won the final point on a broken play. “It wasn’t a good finish to that first game,” Klauda said. The Bulldogs had learned some traits of their opponent from the previous season’s playoff match.

“Montgomery’s going to play really solid defense. They’re not going to be scared,” Klauda said. “They just try to outwork you.” After the first game Ramona utilized the corners to a greater extent.

“The guys made that adjustment and did a real good job of not getting frustrated,” Klauda said. “Instead of swinging harder, we swung smarter and moved the ball around.” See VOLLEYBALL on page 32

Ramona High School senior Caitlyn Choy won two events during Ramona’s track and field dual meet March 14 at Fallbrook High School: the 400-meter race with a time of 1:01.0 and the 200-meter dash with a time of 26.6 seconds. “They’re both really excellent times,” said Coach Sherri Edwards. “Caitlyn Choy is very talented,” said Fallbrook Coach Troy Hamlin. Fallbrook won 11 of the 16 events to take a 91-45 win over the Bulldogs. In six of those events Ramona received no points, but each team scored 45 points in the other 10 events. “I thought we had some good strong performanc-

es,” Edwards said. Ramona’s Courtney Ford ran her first-ever 200-meter dash in the meet against Fallbrook and took third with a time of 27.9 seconds. Ford was second in the 100-meter dash at 13.3 seconds. “I was really pleased with her effort,” Edwards said. Fallbrook swept the scoring positions in the 300-meter hurdles, the 3,200-meter race, the triple jump, and the pole vault. “That’s a lot of points right there,” Hamlin said. The two relay races are all-or-nothing competitions for the five points, and Fallbrook won both of those. Ramona senior Kelly Helman needed 16.9 secSee GIRLS TRACK on page 32

Fallbrook track targets Bulldogs By JOE NAIMAN During the 2011 track and field season, the only dual meet loss for Fallbrook High School’s boys was a 69-67 Ramona High School victory. Last Wednesday, Fallbrook took an 87-49 victory over the Bulldogs in a dual meet at Fallbrook High School. “We had a pretty good day,” said Fallbrook Coach Troy Hamlin. “It was nice to get the victory over them this year.” Last year the meet was decided on the triple jump in which 2011 Ramona graduate Trevor Dotson set a school record. Ramona’s 2011 seniors also included Zach Kovach, who won two individual races, and Chance Varnado-Richardson, who won the 3,200-meter event. The Bulldogs won both relay races last year, but none of those participants were on the 2012 team. Dylan Blankenbaker, who qualified for the state meet’s 1,600-meter race last year, underwent arthroscopic knee surgery March 9. Preston Johnson won two field events against

the Warriors in 2011 but injured his knee during the 2011 football season and did not receive medical clearance to participate in track and field prior to the week of the RamonaFallbrook meet. Johnson’s two wins in 2011 accounted for 10 of the 19 points earned by Ramona athletes who participated in the 2012 meet. “This may be a building year for us,” said Ramona Coach Sherri Edwards. “I’m just going with what I have. I was hoping that we’d make a better showing against them, but they’re a strong team.” The Bulldogs had opened their season with a 65-62 home loss against Escondido. “I was pleased with how close we were with Escondido,” Edwards said. Fallbrook took firstplace points in all six field events, including a sweep of the pole vault scoring positions. Fallbrook’s Chris Bernal won all three jumping events. Ramona’s Connor Guasti was second in all three events at 19’4” in the long jump, 5’6” in the high jump, and 40’1” in the triple jump.

Colton Jansen earned Ramona third place with a high jump of 5’4” and a triple jump of 30’10”. Guasti won the long jump and triple jump against Escondido. In the shot put event, Johnson placed second at 46’8” with Paul Mehaffie’s throw of 40’8” taking third. Johnson threw the shot put 49’2” in the 2011 meet against Fallbrook. “He’s well off his best throw, but hopefully he’ll come back to that,” Edwards said. Mehaffie gave Ramona second-place points in the discus with a distance of 114’6”. Ramona junior Forrest Riley won the 1,600-meter race with a time of 4:36.0 with Fallbrook senior Enrique Rivera finishing second at 4:36.4. “It was a great race,” Hamlin said. “It went back and forth the whole last lap.” Fallbrook junior Connor Froboese spent 4:45.0 racing to beat out Ramona’s Tristan Stidham for third place. Riley, Rivera, and Froboese had identical finishes in the 3,200-meter race which took Riley

Ramona baseball beats Montgomery Team readies for the North County tourney

By BILL TAMBURRINO The Ramona Bulldog baseball team finished the Aztec-Foothiller tournament by beating Montgomery High School 4-2 on the road. The team now gears up for the North County Tournament. The Bulldogs will enter play in North County with a 3-2 record. Harrison McGhee got the start on the mound, going six innings and facing one batter in the seventh inning to pick up the win. McGhee struck out six and did not surrender an earned run. He limited the Aztecs to three hits, all singles. Beau Sulser came in in relief in the seventh to pick up his second save of the season to preserve the victory. Ramona got on the scoreboard in the top of the third inning. Gage Canning opened the frame by drawing a walk. He ad-

vanced to second on an error and took third on a wild pitch. Jackson Willeford drove in Canning with an RBI single, his second hit of the game. Ramona extended its lead in the fourth inning. Kevin Hagan led off the inning with a double. Hunter McHargue made it back-to-back doubles as he drove in Hagan. Montgomery scored two unearned runs in the bottom of the fourth to tie the game. Ramona answered

in the top of the fifth by scoring the winning runs. Jordan Farhat led off the rally with a walk. Willeford took one for the team and reached base when he was hit by a pitch. Sulser drew a walk to load the bases. Hagan ripped his second hit of the day to drive in two runs and give the Dawgs the lead and the eventual win. Brandon Fitzpatrick and Grason Lanz also stroked hits for the Bulldogs in the game.

10:02.5, Rivera 10:03.3, and Froboese 10:07.7. “Enrique hung on as long as he could,” Hamlin said. Riley didn’t run the 3,200-meter race against Escondido but took first place in the 1,600-meter event that day. “He’s looking real strong this year,” Edwards said. Fallbrook posted the two fastest 800-meter run times with Rivera’s 2:06.8 and Froboese’s 2:08.2. Ramona’s Jose Pilar was third at 2:09.8. “We did better than I thought we would do against their distance team,” Hamlin said. Ramona’s Dustin Hager won the 300-meter hurdles with a time of 46.1 seconds and was second in the 110-meter hurdles at 18.4 seconds. Ramona’s Ben Barnat had a time of 48.2 seconds to place third in the 300-meter hurdles. Hagar won the 300-meter hurdles in the 2011 competition against Fallbrook. Fallbrook’s James Pease completed the 400-meter race in 53.7 seconds to edge the 53.8-second

Athlete OF THE WEEK

Christian Rajcic, a top golfer By BILL TAMBURRINO Christian Rajcic is one of the best golfers in San Diego County, and last week he proved it. Rajcic competed in the prestigious City Cup Invitational at Escondido Country Club against the best golfers in the county and blew away the field. The Ramona High School senior carded a 66 to lead the field by four strokes. Going into the final round Rajcic had a four stroke lead over Justin Beck and Justin Hickey of La Costa Canyon. Ironically the 66 is not Rajcic’s low round. He has shot a 65

on his home course, San Vicente Resort, which is a par 72 compared to Escondido Country Club par 70. Rajcic came through in the clutch to share medalist honors with fellow Bulldog, Brandon Zane, and Tailin Song of Torrey Pines in the biggest victory in Bulldog golf history. Rajcic shot an even par 36 and holed an eagle chip from about 30 yards out on the sixth hole. When asked about the victory, Rajcic said, “I was very excited but not shocked. We have a very good team and I knew if we all played well we could beat them.”

Rajcic started golfing at age 10 when his dad, Rojer, got him interested in the sport. He has a 3.5 grade point average and is planning on playing at The University of La Verne next year and to major in kinesiology. For his efforts, Christian Rajcic is the Ramona Sentinel Athlete of the Week.

Scholarships for Women

How young women athletes can earn money for school

~Ramona High Athletics~ This article is referenced from Bigger Faster Stronger Mar/Apr. 2012, author Laanna Carrasco, MA. I have worked in Ramona now for seven years and have noticed the need to provide more accurate information to parents and kids in our community about the scholarship process for high school student athletes. As parents, we all want and “think” that our son or daughter will get that big scholarship. This is a good thought to have as long as parents understand the “factual odds” and exactly what can be done. From spending nine years of my career recruiting the country and working on the other side, I can tell you that, if your son or daughter is good enough, takes school seriously, takes the SAT or ACT, usually the sport will find them. Scholarships for Women: Come and Get ‘Em!

The dream of getting a college athletic scholarship can be a powerful incentive for gifted young female athletes. Today there are 9,087 women’s college sports teams and more than 167,000 female varsity athletes compared to about 30,000 back in 1972 when the gender equity law Title IX was enacted. Title IX requires equal opportunities between the sexes in educational programs that are federally funded and has produced numerous opportunities for girls to have part of their college education paid for by their sports participation. And that’s the catch. Only a small percentage of the most elite female athletes get a full scholarship to college — the vast majority of men and women who receive scholarship money have only a portion of their bills paid for by the athletic department. College coaches are skilled

at stretching their budgets by giving partial scholarships to as many athletes as possible. So where is the money and how does one go after it? Admittedly, odds are very remote that a high school athlete will get an athletic scholarship to college. There are roughly 138,000 athletic scholarships available for Division 1 and 2 sports (men and women). As one example, more than 600,000 girls compete in Track & Field in high school, and there are only about 4,500 college scholarships in this sport, which means only the very best sprinters, jumpers, and throwers will receive a full scholarship. Less than 1 percent of girls playing high school basketball earn any athletic scholarship money to attend college, and the other sports are all within a percentage point of this number. For example, of female high school athletes, 0.7 percent of softball players, 1.2 percent of swimmers and 1.6 percent of golfers will receive athletic scholarship money. But don’t be discouraged! The MONEY is there, and besides partial ath-

letic scholarships there are academic or merit-based scholarships and financial aid. Walking onto a team is another option that may get the dedicated female athlete a scholarship in later years. Be aware that Division III (3) schools and the Ivy League schools don’t even offer athletic scholarships, but they provide valuable athletic and academic opportunities for committed athletes who are not at the elite Division 1 level. These schools have enhanced the financial aid for admitted students, making it much easier to recruit talented athletes. The benefits of playing a sport are enormous, and there is evidence to support female participation. One survey of high school and college female athletes analyzed body weight and activity levels over a 25-year period. Results showed that the women who had participated in sports in high school or college had lower rates of obesity and body mass index. Physical activity rates were higher as well. Equally impressive, NCAA statistics show that 71 percent of female athletes who entered NCAA Divi-

sion 1 programs on athletic scholarships in 1998 graduated within six years, compared to 63 percent of females overall. Female athletes who play sports are more likely to volunteer, be registered to vote, and feel comfortable speaking in public than those who don’t. Various studies have shown girls who play sports have better self-esteem, are less likely to use drugs or smoke, and are less than half as likely to get pregnant during their teens compared to nonathletes. Playing sports also teaches them how to work hard, take criticism, and achieve goals. Team players learn how to rely on each other and give and take constructive criticism. Kids learn goal setting, determination, and discipline that is carried over into real life post college. Practical Steps to Earning Scholarships If you’re a young female athlete (or the parent or coach of a female athlete), here are some tips you can use for financing part or all of your tuition through sports participation. 1. Play the sport you

Hogervorst plays, Williams coaches in all-star game By JOE NAIMAN Ramona’s Bri Hogervorst played her final high school water polo match as part of San Diego County’s senior girls water polo all-star game in Coronado Community Pool. Coaching the small-school team was Ramona’s water polo coach, Donnie Williams. Hogervorst had two steals in the game won 6-4 by the large-school team. “Bri did really well,” Williams said. “I thought she had a real solid game there.” Williams added that he was excited to coach Hogervorst’s final high school water polo game. The 2011-12 season was the second in which water polo was split into three divisions for CIF playoff purposes, although the all-star game utilized the traditional Division I against Divi-

sion II format. The coaches and referees selected a small-school coach of the year. Bishop’s coach Doug Peabody earned that honor, and Williams was runnerup. “I was happy to be recognized,” Williams said. “It’s an honor to know that your colleagues respect all the efforts that you put in.” Bishop won this year’s CIF Division III championship. Ramona reached the CIF Division II semifinals and concluded the season with a 15-16 record, including a CIF quarterfinal win and a 1-9 Palomar League figure. “I was surprised, to tell you the truth,” Williams said of his runner-up distinction. “I thought I’d get some votes, but I didn’t think I’d get that far.” Peabody’s selection as the small-school coach of the year earned him the right to coach the senior all-

star game, but he opted for a family vacation after the CIF season and Williams took his place. Each team had 17 players from various schools. “It’s tough coaching because you don’t know all the girls,” Williams said.

“You don’t know where their talents match up.” Williams and his team did well against their larger-school counterparts; the score was tied at three goals apiece entering the fourth quarter. “They got two or three

quick counterattacks,” Williams said of the largeschool team’s fourth-period success. “It was enjoyable,” Williams said of coaching the all-star game. “It’s a good way to recognize the athletes.” Ramona High School graduate Nick Vincent’s bid to make the San Diego Padres baseball roster was put on hold when the right-handed pitcher stepped on a baseball in the bullpen and sprained his ankle. Vincent pitched in Goodyear Stadium on March 11 and picked up his first major league save for the Padres. He has a 0.00 era in three innings pitched so far in spring training. He is slated to be out of action for at least a week. The Padres assigned Nick to their Triple A affiliate in Tuscon.

love. You have to really love your sport to make it worth your time, commitment, and sacrifices it takes to excel in college athletics. Study hard and you’ll create opportunities for yourself. 2. Start strength training and conditioning early. Work with a coach or fitness professional (RHS athletic or P.E. coaches are all coaching certified and some have master’s degrees in their field. Also Ramona Fitness offers some great trainers and programs for the young athlete.) to get stronger, quicker, faster, and more mobile. If you have strength training experience, you’ll stand out to college coaches, and they will be attracted by that commitment and drive and will want you on their team. 3. Get appropriate mobility in your hips and ankles and be able to perform good technique in the squat. Again, you can do this by training in one of the weight training classes that RHS offers in the Physical Education Department or by working out at Ramona Fitness with a trainer or on your own. You will be a more attractive prospect if you can move well on the court or field, and mobility is a critical component of athleticism. 4. Contact coaches of schools you are interested in as early as your sophomore year. Contact the coach with an introductory email, send them a video of your skills, fill them in on your academics, and let them know when you’ll be playing at camps or tournaments and games. Also register with the NCAA Clearinghouse and start taking the SAT or ACT as soon as you can. You must post a score by your Junior year. Recruit them. BE PERSISTENT! 5. Put yourself on YouTube. To attract the attention of coaches, put together a video of eight minutes of your skills and put it on YouTube. Send this to coaches in an introductory email instead of a CD or DVD because these can easily get lost or set aside on a busy coach’s desk.

Ramona took the top two positions in the shot put; Kara Banegas had a throw of 29 feet 1-1/2 inches while Claire Hagan was second with a distance of 26’10”. Hagan had the winning discus toss at 82’9” while Banegas was third with a throw of 62’11”. Ramona senior Lauren Cortez, who won the 1,600-meter race in the Bulldogs’ opening meet against Escondido, settled for second against Fallbrook. Nicole Bell won that race in 5:28.2 while Cortez took 5:31.2. Fallbrook had the two fastest 800-meter times, but Ramona’s Amy Jordan prevented a sweep with a third-place time of 2:43.8. Fallbrook freshman Peyton Brittain won the long jump with a distance of 15’3” to beat out Ramona’s Callie Guasti, who had the second-place distance of 15’1”. g

Because Montgomery didn’t have a jump-server, a three-person servereceive wasn’t necessary. Cody Kealy, who was Ramona’s libero for the first game and had two digs, was replaced at that position by Jake Hitt. “The game was a good matchup for what he has,” Klauda said of Hitt. “It was perfect for Jake.” Hitt had 13 digs in his three games. “Jake played really well,” Klauda said. Ramona took a 25-11 victory in the second game and a 25-21 triumph in the third game. In the fourth game Kenny Lawler served the Bulldogs to a point where Klauda felt comfortable utilizing substitutes — although he waited until the sideout to make the switch. “I would have subbed earlier than that, but all of a sudden our server went on a huge run,” Klauda said. The substitutes increased Ramona’s lead to 24-14

Ramona high jumpers Brooke Brean and Ashlyn Savage each cleared 4’6” for second and third place. “We don’t have as much depth,” Edwards said. “I

Tennis scores 2 more wins before league Lucas wins 200 free at Sundevil Invite By BILL TAMBURRINO

The Bulldog tennis team beat Del Norte High School and Mission Hills High School in its final tune-up before starting Palomar League play this week against Poway at Riviera Oaks. The Bulldog tennis team is 6-0. Senior co-captain John Shupe said he is excited about going into Palomar League play. He is playing with doubles partner, Tyler McDonald, for the fourth year at RHS. “I have only played one singles match in my four years at Ramona,” Shupe said. “I met Tyler in the sixth grade and we have been playing together ever since. We have a lot of fun. Playing tennis at Ramona is a lot of fun.” Shupe is a four-year letterman with a 4.4 grade

point average overall. He had a 4.8 grade point average the first semester. He is deciding whether to attend Santa Clara University, Stanford University or University of San Diego. His mom Suzanne and dad Keith both play the sport. “My mom plays in leagues and my dad plays when he can.” Ramona rode the strength of the Bulldog doubles teams in its win over Del Norte High School. The doubles duos won eight of nine sets in the victory. Shupe and McDonald

posted scores of 6-1, 6-2, and 6-0 as they manned the number one doubles spot in the lineup. Chad Martin and Nick Peterson played like a number one duo as they won three sets with scores of 6-4, 6-1, and 6-3. Garrett Wilcox and Ricky Flores won two team points with scores of 6-3, 6-2, and 3-6. In singles action, number one player Daniel Streeter posted scores of 4-6, 6-2, and 6-0 to win two team points. Christian Failla won two sets with scores of 2-6, 6-3, and 6-1. Scotty Barber went 0-6,

OBITUARIES

Milan Dimich 1939 – 2012

Milan passed away March 16, 2012, after an extensive illness. Milan was born June 10, 1939, to Milan and Dorothy Dimich in McKeesport, PA. Milan lost both of his parents at the age of six and was raised by his Aunt Mary Yowan and Aunt Bessie and Uncle Steve Lugarich. Milan overcame a life threatening childhood accident to become an accomplished athlete at McKeesport High School. He was an all-state football player and an all-state track athlete. Football took him to Clemson University and then to San Diego State College (now SDSU) after a semester in Blythe, CA. Milan played for San Diego State in 1960 and then prepared himself for a career in education.

Milan married Olga Todorica in 1964 and started a family, son Milan and daughter Deborah. Olga passed away in 1981 and Milan was lucky to find love again and married Marlene Lewis, with whom he has shared 27 wonderful years. Milan started and ended his career at one school, Muirlands Junior High School in La Jolla, CA. He taught Physical Education for the first years of his career and then transitioned to counseling for the remainder of his career at Muirlands. Milan and his family moved to Ramona, CA, in 1967 to take on the family ranching operation in addition to his career at Muirlands. Milan was known to all as a gregarious, fun loving, hard working, family man who was a beloved father figure and friend to all. He was a man that always gave of himself to his friends and neighbors, youth sports, the community and the school where he loved to have an influence on the lives of his students, especially helping those that needed it the most. Milan’s upbringing always gave him compassion for the underdog and he had an uncanny way of knowing how to help people without being conspicuous. Milan was the

catalyst for long standing traditions at home and at school, he embraced his Serbian and Croatian heritage and communicated through his two favorite mediums, food and talk. If a party was in the making, you could be assured that Milan was at the helm roasting something for all to enjoy. He retired from Muirlands in 2000 and sought enjoyment in working hard on the ranch, traveling, keeping a close eye on his grandchildren, Delaney and Cole, spending time with his friends, flying, and enjoying time with his family. In retirement Milan returned each year to Muirlands to keep alive a long standing tradition of barbequing for the eighth grade on Western Day, something that he loved to do. Milan is survived by his loving wife, Marlene; his children, Milan (Brynne) and Deborah; grandchildren, Delaney and Cole; sisterin-law, Barbara Dimich; and nieces, Dorothy Byerly and Nancy Dimich. He was pre-deceased by his brother, Daniel Dimich. A service will be held Thursday, March 22, 2012, at 7 p.m. at St. George Serbian Orthodox Church. Burial and a graveside service will be held on Friday, March 23, 2012, at 1 p.m. at Nuevo

Memory Gardens in Ramona, CA, with a celebration of his life to follow at the family home. Bonham Bros & Stewart Mortuary assisted the family. Please sign the guest book online at www.legacy.com/ obituaries/ramonasentinel.

Ramona High School junior Gina Lucas took first place in the 200-yard freestyle race during the San Diego Sundevil Invitational meet March 17 at Mount Carmel High School. Lucas had a time of 1:56.44 in her preliminary heat to earn the top seed in the finals, which she swam in 1:55.59. “It was exciting to watch her,” said Coach Jolyn Yanez. Ramona opened its season March 9 at Grossmont High School with a tri-meet against Grossmont and Scripps Ranch. In that meet Lucas had a time of 1:56.03 in the 200-yard freestyle to beat out Scripps Ranch’s Haley Lusher and earn an automatic qualifying time for the CIF meet. Ramona had two firstplace finishes in the trimeet with Lucas winning the 100-yard breaststroke in 1:09.81 to post an automatic qualifying time in that event. During the Sundevil meet Lucas swam the preliminary breaststroke race in 1:09.38 before posting a third-place time of 1:09.98 in the finals.

Ramona freshman Danielle LaRosa qualified for the consolation finals in two events at the Mt. Carmel meet. Her preliminaries time of 2:08.42 placed her 17th in the 200-yard freestyle and made her the first alternate, but a scratch gave her the 16th seed for the consolation race. She finished that in 2:06.76 to take 14th. LaRosa’s heat time of 5:41.01 in the 500-yard freestyle seeded her 16th for the finals, where her time of 5:38.34 gave her another 14th-place finish. “She just went out there and scrapped for any point she could get,” Yanez said. Qualifying for the CIF meet is based on individual or relay quartet race times rather than team season records, so the non-league team results are irrelevant to Ramona’s future season activities. Non-league meets and invitationals do, however, allow for qualifying times for the CIF meet. During the meet at Grossmont La Rosa posted a consideration time of 5:37.97 while finishing second in the 200-yard freestyle and Lisse Litka-Baughman See SWIM on page 35
