Trustees consider $40 million bond By MAUREEN ROBERTSON

In a special meeting Monday afternoon, Ramona Unified School District trustees indicated their support for a $40 million bond measure on the Nov. 4 ballot. Of that, $32 million would pay off a loan a previous board approved a decade ago and $8 million would pay for school modernization and repairs. "We're not taking any action today," board president Dawn Perfect said. "We're directing
staff to pursue a path to pay off the COP." Superintendent Robert Graeff is expected to present a specific bond proposal to trustees at a special meeting on Thursday, June 26, at 6 p.m. The meeting will be in the Wilson Administrative Center, 720 Ninth St. Also at the meeting, trustees are expected to approve a proposed $47.3 million budget for 2014-15, a state-required accountability plan, a bond underwriter and bond counsel.
Ramona is one of three districts in the county reporting it may not meet its financial obligations in coming years. Based on the proposed budget presented to trustees last Wednesday, the district will end the 2014-15 school year with an ending balance of $1.2 million. In 2015-16 and 2016-17, however, the district anticipates ending the year with deficits of $2.4 million and $7 million, respectively. Facing loan repayments of $1.5 million in the 2014-15 fis-

cal year that begins July 1, $1.8 million the next year and $1.8 million in 2016-17 is only part of the challenge, Assistant Superintendent David Ostermann said. The district faces increased health benefit, utility and California State Teachers' Retirement System (CalSTRS) costs. While the state's economy is improving, he said, the district, among other measures, is attempting to sell property it is not using and to balance decreasing enrollment while reducing some class sizes.

Ramona Village Design Group chair Rob Lewallen and vice chair Carol Fowler discuss the Ramona Village Center Plan with county planning commissioners.
Commissioners approve village plan, hold off on re-zone for big box store By KAREN BRAINARD Both the proponents and the opponents of a proposed re-zone that could pave the way to a big box store on H Street claimed a partial victory after a decision by the county Planning Commission on June 12. "We kind of won," said Jim Hagey, owner of the 20 acres behind the Stater Bros. shopping center. However, David Glassford, who is a neighbor of Hagey's property and opposes a big box, expressed a similar reaction. While the commissioners did not give Hagey the requested zoning, their motion left the door open so it could possibly happen at a later date. At the meeting, Hagey asked commissioners to include his residential-zoned property within the boundaries of the Ramona Village Center Plan of form based codes. Those codes have been designed to boost the town's economic viability and create a sense of place with architecture and landscaping elements reflecting the community's character. To be in that plan's boundaries would give Hagey mixed use zoning and allow commercial.
Once approved by the San Diego County Board of Supervisors, the form based codes will be added to the county zoning ordinance. Hagey, who bought his property 14 years ago with dreams of a walkable community, is proposing to build a town square on six acres around Elliott Pond, at Ramona and Raymond streets, and to sell the remaining 14 acres to a retail developer. To have the property included in the form based codes would mean that a developer would have to follow the design standards in the codes and place parking in the back of the building instead of in front, he noted. "We've gotten very strong support," said Hagey. But he added that some of the H Street neighbors seemed to like the idea at first but have since changed their minds. Glassford said he did not know of the plans until he spoke to Hagey after the May Ramona Community Planning Group meeting when planners voted 8-2 to have the 20 acres included in the village plan. Saying he was speaking for at least 27 individuals, Glassford said, "The comSee VILLAGE PLAN, page A6
Testing fifth-graders in the Ramona Unified School District for obesity and diabetes risks this year showed that 35 percent of the students were considered at risk. This was the eighth year the Palomar Health Community Action Council conducted the Transforming Obesity and Diabetes Awareness in Youth school-based screening program, said Nancy Roy, Ramona resident and community outreach liaison for Palomar Health. Roy provided the results at the Community Action Council meeting in Ramona Community Center on June 6. At Ramona Elementary School, fifth-graders at risk for obesity and diabetes rose from about 39 percent last year to 56 percent this year, said Roy. “So that’s a little disturbing,” she said. Roy noted that Ramona Elementary had about 70 students in fifth grade. “It could just be your pool of kids,” she said. The percentage of atrisk fifth-graders dropped at Barnett Elementary, from 39 to 24 percent, at James Dukes Elementary, 34 to 22 percent, and at Ramona Community School, 23 to 22 percent. At Hanson Elementary, the numbers rose slightly, from 40 to 43 percent, and at Mount Woodson Elementary, from 32 to 36 percent. According to Roy, the testing uses a body mass index (BMI) geared to
children to determine who is at risk. This year 392 students were screened with 239, or 61 percent, coming in at a healthy weight. There were 63 (16 percent) who fell into the overweight category and 75 (19 percent) in the obese category. Fifteen students (4 percent) came in as underweight. For those at-risk students, testing officials folSee OBESITY, page A2

Editor's note: Montessori Children's Elementary teacher Lisa Dehaine wrote this Thursday morning, June 12, as her way of processing an incident that had occurred at the school at 717 Ninth St. the day before, when sheriff's deputies searched from the air and on the ground for a suspect who had evaded them.
By LISA DEHAINE Yesterday was the last day of school for the private Montessori I work for. Normally we walk all 60 children two blocks down the street to a local park for our annual end of the year picnic. The children are usually dismissed after the picnic to their parents, who may or may not be in attendance. Some just come at the end to pick up their children. Well, yesterday was a first for us. As we brought
the children outside to pair the preschool students with our older elementary students, we noticed that the sheriff's helicopter was circling overhead and announcing something about "a man in black.....call 911." "Hmmm....what is this about?" I looked down the street and there was a sheriff's car, lights going, sheriff standing outside the car on alert. "Hmmm....maybe this isn't a good time See TEACHER, page A2

for us to walk to the park." I go down to the sheriff and explain that our 60 children were about to walk to the park and asked if maybe this wasn't a good time for that. Well, not only was it not a good time, but within 15 minutes we had 60+ children (because now some siblings had arrived for the picnic) and close to 20 parents on lockdown inside our school. No, not a good time to go walking. A fugitive was on the loose and hiding someplace between the block our school is on and the park two blocks away! When you are on lockdown at our school, it means that we put all the children into one room, they are all accounted for, every access point into the school is locked/ secured, and you attempt to explain the situation in a "not scary way" and keep them entertained and calm. Now calm in this in-
From page A1
stance is a must, because if you have to quickly mobilize 60 children or give instructions that they have to follow, it is important that they are as quiet as possible and paying attention. That in and of itself is not an easy task even with all 10+ teachers in the room. Lucky for us our children are pretty awesome! We put a movie in and for the most part they relaxed and sat quietly. However, there were a few children who were sensitive to the situation and had some fear. We as teachers need to comfort them and ensure them they are safe. To do that we have to have a relationship in which these children trust us (this is where all that relationship building from the previous 10 months comes into play in a big way!). Our children know we will keep them safe, and we were able to comfort and assure them.
Across the front of this room — the only room large enough for all the children — is a wall of windows — about 4 feet in height. On lockdown every access point to the school is either locked or secured. If there are windows in the room where the children are, the teachers secure these windows — by standing in front of them — we become a human shield over these children. So, here I am standing in front of these windows, looking at a room full of children — 2 of whom were my sons. Behind me — outside the school — there is a fugitive loose and sheriffs are trying to find and apprehend him. Now the chances that our school will be impacted by this in any way (other than the lockdown) is so slim. However, there is still a chance — there is still some sense of threat. So here I stand in front of these windows think-
ing about the 3+ school shootings that have happened THIS WEEK in other parts of the USA — and I wonder — did I sign up for this? I'm looking into my son's face and thinking, if I get shot he's going to see this. I have a family. Did I sign up for this? As I stood for over an hour in front of these windows I had to think — am I really willing to take a bullet and give my life to keep every young soul in this room safe? Yes, I am. So there I stood, next to every other teacher at our school, shoulder to shoulder, creating a human

lowed up with the parents and provided a packet with healthy eating information and an activity calendar to fill out to promote exercise. They also advise medical insurance options if necessary, said Roy. Officials were only able to reach 37 of the 108 parents to be called, she noted.
Pointing out the importance of exercise, Roy said the council contributed $150 each to four of the elementary schools in the district with running clubs. “Anything we can do to encourage physical activity, that helps a lot,� she said.

we read the stories about how a teacher shielded students and died doing so, I wonder if our new generation of teachers are having to consciously think about that responsibility being part of the job and about the risks of becoming a teacher. When I chose to become a teacher, I didn't sign up to be a human shield. But yesterday I realized I accept that responsibility. I accepted it along with all the other teachers who stood by my side and along with every teacher who walks into a classroom each day.

I don't think any one of us consciously thought about that specific instance when we became teachers.

each group. Each supervisor also receives a $1 million discretionary Neighborhood Reinvestment Program budget, so some community enhancement requests could be fulfilled by that source. Last year, Ramona chamber requested $65,000 in TOT money and received $45,000. This year's $78,000 request would provide $55,000 for community events including the annual community awards banquet, the open artists studio tour, the Ramona Country Fair, the Safe Trick or Treat children's walk, Octoberfest, and the holiday tree lighting; $10,000 to develop tourism and marketing promotional and directional materials; $7,500 to develop cooperative efforts to promote Ramona's wine industry; $3,000 for educational workshops; and $2,500 for a local business directory, according to the chamber. Ramona H.E.A.R.T. Mural Project Corp.'s first TOT request is for $15,000: $5,000 for a Ramona Tree Trust mural, $5,000 for a Kenilworth Inn mural, $4,000 for a Business Barn mural, and $1,000 for a music mural at Ramona Music Center. Ramona Pioneer Historical Society's request for $15,000 matches its 2013-14
grant. The historical society, which operates the Guy B. Woodward Museum, would use $11,000 for an operations director and $4,000 for non-salary operations and maintenance expenses. Full Access and Coordinated Transportation Inc. seeks to provide public transit to unserved residents throughout the county. The $48,000 requested includes $2,000 to expand FACT services into non-urban areas in Jacob's district including Ramona, Lakeside and Spring Valley. San Diego Winery-Vintner Community Development Council, a first-time applicant, wants $265,000. The association would spend $130,000 on planning activities, $50,000 for website development and marketing, $35,000 for membership activities, $30,000 for staff training, and $20,000 to facilitate the application of an inland North County appellation. Most organizations will receive less than the amount requested. The money is not based on the previous year's allocation. The money comes from a tax on motels, hotels and other lodging facilities in the unincorporated part of the county.

Officials to dedicate greenway staging area first day of summer Air and ground search ends in arrest Ramona and regional officials will dedicate the staging area for the Santa Maria Creek Greenway on Saturday at 10 a.m. The dedication will be at the San Diego County Parks & Recreation monument next to the Arriba Teen Center at 1710 Montecito Road. Ramona Trails Association's John Degenfelder, who organized the event, said invitations have gone to San Diego County Supervisor Dianne Jacob, Ramona Community Planning Group, representatives of the sheriff's Ramona station and volunteer mounted patrol, Ramona Chamber of Commerce, Ramona Unified School District Board and San Vicente Saddle Club. Also invited are representatives of Ramona Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3783, Ramona Village Design Group and Ramona Real Estate Association. The public is welcome. "This addition to Ramona's non-motorized trail community is thanks to funding from county
Supervisor Dianne Jacob — by way of the Ramona Community Foundation," Degenfelder said in his invitation email. "Ramona Trails Association needs to celebrate!" Cookies, ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery and lemonade will be served. The staging area features a large parking area, shaded picnic table and
kiosk, noted Degenfelder. It is between the teen center and Santa Maria Creek, which serves as living quarters for some of Ramona's homeless. The greenway, included in the Ramona Village Design plan, is proposed to go from Ramona Community Center to Ramona Grasslands, said Degenfelder. —Maureen Robertson
Water district plans evening presentation To give residents who cannot attend an afternoon meeting an opportunity to learn more about Ramona Municipal Water District’s 2014-15 budget, a public presentation will be held Monday evening, June 23, the day before directors are scheduled to adopt new rates. The presentation by staff will start at 7 p.m. in Ramona Community Center, 434 Aqua Lane. A public hearing on the proposed water and sewer rates will be held at the board meeting the next day, June 24, at 2 p.m. in the community center. The district is proposing not-to-exceed water and
sewer rate increases of 6 percent. Director George Foote requested the evening meeting, which will be informational only. There will be no board action, and board members are not required to attend. Members of the public will be encouraged to ask questions or speak at the informational meeting, said RMWD General Manager David Barnum. Director Joe Zenovic requested staff take attendance to see how many residents attend an evening meeting, and to inform the board of overtime costs.
of man suspected of evading officers By NEAL PUTNAM A man who scuffled with a sheriff’s detective in Ramona and was arrested after evading officers on June 11 had been free on bond for possession of methamphetamine. Bail was set at $25,000 Friday for Luis Antonio Juarez, 23, for both cases by El Cajon Superior Court Judge Evan Kirvin. Juarez pleaded not guilty to the new charge of resisting arrest from an executive officer. Before the June 11 incident, Juarez had been charged with methamphetamine possession, a felony, and two misdemeanors on June 6. The misdemeanors alleged he was under the influence of a drug and possession of burglary tools, said Deputy District Attorney Jeff Lazar. A sheriff’s detective suffered minor injuries in the scuffle around 9:35 a.m., when
the suspect ran from deputies. Ramona Elementary and Montecito High schools as well as Montessori Children's House and Montessori Children's Elementary had their buildings locked down for an hour during the search. There were no students on campus at the two public schools because school is out for summer, but it was the last day of class for Montessori, a private school at 717 Ninth St. With assistance from a sheriff's helicopter and canine units, deputies arrested Juarez at 11:02 a.m. in the 600 block of E Street. A preliminary hearing was set for June 26 and a readiness conference for June 20. Deputy District Attorney Lori Rooney said Juarez was on probation for a nondrug related case that was filed against him in 2011.

School district holds hearing on accountability plan Daubert, who had attended an open house the district held in late May, had several suggestions as she asked about specifics in the 43-page plan. "First of all, there's a lot of education-speak in this," she said, suggesting the district add a glossary explaining terms the general public may not know. Theresa Grace, the district's senior director of education services who presented the plan, agreed, saying, "We'll put it in the glossary" when Daubert asked for a definition or explanation. "I wish to commend you and applaud you," said Daubert, the only community member to comment during the hearing. "It's an awful lot of thought that has gone into this document, and it's very clear that you've made a big attempt to involve the community and parents, and that's mag-
By MAUREEN ROBERTSON A state law that took effect this year requires school districts to create a three-year Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) before they can approve a budget. A separate public hearing must be held for the plan and budget before school trustees can approve either for the 201415 school year that starts July 1. Ramona Unified School District trustees held public hearings for both on June 11 and are scheduled to vote on them at a special meeting on Thursday, June 26. The meeting will start at 6 p.m. in the Board Room of the Wilson Administrative Center, 720 Ninth St. "It's a wonderful document," said Ramona resident and retired teacher Joyce Daubert. "I really am very impressed."
nificent. I don't think it happens in every district." The state requires districts to conduct a community survey and to involve parents, students, school employees and others in the community in creating the plan. State and district priorities must be included, and the plan must contain goals, actions, services, ways to measure student progress, and how money will be spent. The six goals in Ramona district's proposed plan to meet state academic standards are: 1. Improve learning for all students through standards-based instruction which includes targeted interventions and extensions; 2. Engage all students in relevant, personalized learning that integrates communication, critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, civility and
other 21st century skills; 3. Improve learning for all students by employing highly qualified teachers, providing focused professional development and
utilizing collaboration as a routine professional practice; 4. Increase college and career readiness by providing a richer mix of
relevant course offerings and engaging opportunities for all students; 5. Promote community involvement in our schools and increase the engagement of parents in their children's education; and 6. Improve overall school climate through increased attention to student well-being, school safety and maintenance at our school sites and offices. The plan will be reviewed annually, Grace said. It is available online at ramonausd.net, the first item under "District Headlines" on the left. "Our funding formula now comes in the form of base funding, which is for all students," said Grace, adding that districts will receive additional money based on the percentage of underperforming subgroups such as lowincome, English language learners and foster youth.

Spotlight on Local | Businesses Country stores offer more choices, more sandwiches By REGINA ELLING If you’ve ever planned a last minute get-together or picnic with friends, sometimes figuring out the menu can be harder than juggling busy schedules. Country Wine and Spirits, formerly Daniel’s Market, has an easy, convenient solution. “We recently added a number of sandwiches to our menu choices, bringing our total number up to 29,” said Mike Shamoon, manager. In addition to traditional favorites, the new sub sandwiches include the all-American, British, German, French, Country Wine and Spirits, chicken Parmesan, veggie, ham, roast beef and turkey. And there’s no waiting, as the sandwiches are already boxed and ready to go. “The sandwiches are all fresh,” said Shamoon. “The Country Wine and Spirits sub, for example, con

munity — the people that are directly affected by that property — do not want it." Glassford said he supports the form based codes and Hagey's town square idea but thinks Hagey was trying to sneak in a big box. Such retail would increase traffic, lower property values and affect the safety of children walking to school, he said. Supporting Hagey's request was Ramona Village Design Group vice chair Carol Fowler, who worked on the form based codes.
sists of turkey, Swiss cheese, bacon and avocado. The British sub consists of pastrami and salami, and Swiss and hot pepper cheeses.” As if the sandwiches weren’t
“Plans are under way for a new coffee area and hot foods area." Mike Shamoon, manager enticing enough, Shamoon said a meal can be had for just $6.99. “Pick any sandwich, add a 16 ounce fountain drink and either a side of macaroni or potato salad or small bag of chips, and you have a fresh, quick meal.” If sandwiches aren’t your dish, there are a variety of salads, deli foods, snacks, candies and other items sure to tempt your palate. Three of Country Wine and Spir-
its locations are in Ramona. In addition to the 1350 Main St. shop, there is a store in the Country Estates and another on Highway 67, across from Schwaesdall Winery. Shamoon has been manager at the Main Street location for about a month, but has already made some big changes. “We’ve added more beers, wines, liquors and beverages,” he said. “Plans are under way for a new coffee area and hot foods area. Once complete, six more hot sandwiches will be available.” Country Wine and Spirits was established in 2000. Founder Shawn Kattoula also has stores in El Cajon, Carlsbad, Del Mar, La Jolla and Tierrasanta. “From owner to staff to customers, we are all like a big family,” said Shamoon. “Come on in. We’re open 24 hours.”
From page A1
Fowler stressed the need for more retail in Ramona, noting that residents have to drive down the hill for many "every day" items. Locations for a medium or big box store in the town center are limited because of environmental constraints, she said. "We feel that if we don't design a space right now, we'll be supporting spot commercial in Ramona," said Fowler. Also speaking in support were village design chair Rob Lewallen, former resident Chris Meador, and vil-

lage design member and developer Steve Powell. "It's not a matter of if it's going to happen — it's a matter of when," Powell said of a big box in Ramona. Resident Donna Myers told commissioners she supports the form based codes but not the re-zoning for Hagey's property. Commissioner Bryan Woods, who formerly lived and owned a business in Ramona and represents the area, threw his support behind Hagey's request. "Ramona needs economic development. It needs money spent in its town center," he said. Woods added that the community needs an area for social activities, such as the town square. Woods said Hagey's plan for a walkable community had been vetted in the community for a decade. Commissioner Michael Beck said Hagey's vision sounded reasonable but asked why it had not been included in the plan earlier. Joe Farace, county project manager for the Ramona Village Center Plan, said Hagey began working on the idea earlier this year. Farace said county staff felt it was too late to consider adding Hagey's property to the plan's boundaries, but
it could be done at a later date. Farace said staff will probably do a yearly review of the form based codes. Planning Commission Chairman Peder Norby said he believes more time is needed to consider Hagey's property, and form based codes were the wrong tools to bring in a big box. Beck suggested the commission recommend that the county supervisors adopt the form based codes for Ramona and Alpine and recommend initiating the process to integrate Hagey's property in the village plan boundaries. The commissioners approved the motion 6-0. Also in the motion was a change in the Ramona Village Center Plan's zoning for property designated for the Ramona Intergenerational Community Campus (RICC) on Main Street between 13th and 14th streets. Farace said a civic zoning designation was given to the land all the way to the Santa Maria Creek, but the back half is still under private ownership. Designating it civic would restrict the property owners, he said, suggesting replacing that section with three other zoning classifications that would allow more flexibility.

Clara was also an active apiarist, writing a book on beekeeping and honey production. She died in 1949 and is buried in Ramona Nuevo Memory Gardens cemetery. The 1914 Election Nineteen fourteen was a general election year and only the second one in which California women were allowed to vote. San Diego County campaigns were running hot and heavy that fall. Sentinel editor Timothy Brownhill’s September and October papers were loaded with ads. He supplemented the paid ones with supportive “news� items for his favored candidates. The Oct. 30 edition had nearly 40 percent of its pages filled with candidate advertising. Offices for District Attorney, Superior Court Judge, Coroner, Sheriff, State Assemblyman, Senator and Congressman were all up for election. The election was held on Tuesday, Nov. 3. The Sentinel came out as usual the following Friday, Nov. 6, but with not one word about Tuesday’s election results. The following edition came out a week later, as did the following, and still no results. Apparently, in those days, the responsi-

OPINION
Farm Tour Day thanks Wow, what great coverage of Ramona’s first annual Farm Tour Day. Thank you for giving this milestone such prominent coverage. I think we can all be proud of our little town and our unique mix of equine, history, trails, farms and agro-tourism. Everyone I spoke to was thrilled to learn about so many great farms and farmers right here in our backyards, and many had no idea that Ramona is so agriculturally diverse — our Farm Tour friends helped change that perception. I like to publicly thank Elaine Lyttleton and Norm Case, who worked tirelessly for weeks leading up to the Farm Tour Day to ensure their working winery and vineyard, Hatfield Creek, was a tribute to all of the hardworking farmers of our community as well as our artisan winery community. Elaine is passionate about economic development and saw this as a great opportunity to share Ramona by bringing the Farm Tour Day visitors here. It seems to have worked wonderfully, with several comments on how beautiful Ramona is, and how they’ll be back to visit our town again. Other economic endeavors on Elaine’s plate include founding the Ramona H.E.A.R.T. Mural Project, with the mission: To encourage economic vitality by increasing tourism, promoting community pride, and celebrating our rich cultural heritage through an outstanding outdoor visual arts program. She also serves as the secretary of the Ramona Valley Vineyard Association (RVVA) and was elected to the San Diego County Farm Bureau Board last year as our Ramona representative. When Elaine heard that Ramona had never been part of the farm tour, she stepped up and made it happen! Hatfield Creek Winery’s grand opening is this weekend. I will stop by and say thank you and invite you to do the same. We’re lucky to have folks like these in our neighborhood. Hatfield Creek is at 1625 Highway 78, just east of town, and will be open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday through Sunday. Thank you, Elaine, for being a friend, neighbor and mentor. Teri Kerns, co-owner Ramona Ranch Vineyard & Winery

Guest Commentary
What Ramona voters need to know By MISCHA DOBROTIN Ramona Unified School District trustees might have heard us, but they didn't get the message. The message is, keep it simple. Pay off the Certificate of Participation (COP), and let the operating budget take care of the rest! There are a number of items about the contemplated school bond issue the voters of the Ramona community need to know. Currently, the RUSD projected budget is not able to cover all the costs required in future years. The future repayment costs for the COP can not be made out of the operating budget. Because of this, the school board is preparing to ask the community to pass a bond issue of about $40 million. The cost to the community would be $39 per $100,000 of county property tax evaluation (not the current market value), annually, for the duration of the bond issue. The schedule for the repayment of the proposed bond issue has not been presented, nor how long the repayment period would be. The Ramona community needs to know this. According to an article in the U-T
San Diego (May 12, 2014), the money raised from the bond issue would not be used to pay off the entire debt from earlier construction projects (basically, the COP). Part of the money would be used for such items as roofing, air conditioning, carpeting, and painting, as well as renovations to many buildings. There are three problems inherent with this plan. The first one is that there will still be money required to pay off the COP. It is contemplated that a future bond would be necessary to complete the payment of the COP. This is kicking the problem down the road. Much as this school board has to struggle with the problem from the actions of a previous school board, another school board, another school superintendent, another school staff will have to struggle with the problem left behind by the current school board. Leaving this problem for another school board will complicate the passage of another bond. The second problem is what is the expected service life of the air conditioning, carpets, painting, and other unSee COMMENTARY—DOBROTIN, page B6

According to Librarian Ellie Slade, students came from as far away as El Centro, Borrego, Warner Springs and Julian. Ravy's June 16 class was Spirit Animals for Adults, and she will teach Ramona Landscape Collage on July 23. The free classes are funded by Friends of the Ramona Library.

Giving an example of how the club helps children, McCune said a member who has cerebral palsy and DiGeorge Syndrome was having a difďŹ cult time at the club and often had outbursts during the program. "We recently started giving him more responsibilities around the club (helping to organize board games, set up equipment for outdoor activities, clean up after art) and his behavior has drastically improved," said McCune. She added that the boy told her "the Boys & Girls Club is a cool place to
be." As she was updating the staff board he told her that his picture would be up there one day as a staff member. "This is why I love my job," McCune said. Alonso, a Boys and Girls Club alumnus from Miami, is a Life Changer spokesperson for the organization.

2014 Bulldogs of the Year Hill named Athlete of the Year Ramona High initiated the Bulldog of the Year Award when it was not winning many games in any sport. The purpose of the award was to honor the studentathlete who made coaching a joy. Criteria for the award is leadership, character and athletic ability. The Bulldog of the Year exemplifies what being a Ramona athlete is all about.
Christina Barrameda
softball, and was an All CIF selection in softball. She was All Academic in softball, basketball and volleyball her junior and senior years. Barrameda is a 4.0 student and will attend Azusa Pacific University, where she will play basketball. She plans to major in mathematics, which will give her several career options.
Three-sport athlete Christina Barrameda is the 2014 Lady Bulldog of the Year. “My favorite sport is volleyball. I had the most fun playing basketball. My best sport is softball," she said. “If Christina Barrameda was on every team that I coached, she would have gotten the Joe Bess Coaches’ award every year (Lady Bulldog equivalent to Bulldog Award)," said basketball coach Dan Marshall. "I enjoyed coaching Christina as much as I have enjoyed coaching anybody." All three softball coaches — Cori McDonald, Robin Brainard and Antoinette Rodriguez — said Barrameda is a one of a kind, the kind that only comes around once in a coaching career. Barrameda excelled in her three sports. She earned two varsity letters in volleyball and basketball, and three varsity letters in softball. She was team captain in basketball and softball her junior and senior seasons. She received all-league honors in basketball and
Trae Rodriguez
Trae Rodriguez is dedicated. He is a leader, a scholar, a winner and the 2014 Bulldog of the Year. In an age when too many high school athletes specialize in one sport, Rodriguez participated in three sports. Rodriguez lettered in football and wrestling, and participated in track to improve his speed and footwork for football and wrestling. It worked. Rodriguez was in the Associated Student Body Leadership Class and put the lessons learned in that class to good use in the athletic arena. He was captain of the football team and captain of the wrestling team. He was all league in wres-
tling twice and in football once, and won a CIF championship in wrestling his senior year. He was All Academic in both sports his junior and senior seasons. Rodriguez is a 3.8 student in college prep and honors classes and will attend Texas State University in the fall. He plans to walk on in football and participating in intramural wrestling. “Since it is Texas, Trae might also try steer wrestling,” suggested lifelong Texan Dave Lohman, Montecito High principal. Both have a sense of humor. Rodriguez planns to major in kinesiology and chemistry to pursue a career in teaching and coaching. “Nobody worked harder than Trae — nobody. He led from the front and did everything that he could to help us win. He was a pleasure to coach,” said football coach Damon Baldwin. “Trae won as a heavyweight on athletic ability and pure guts," said wrestling coach David Tomaino. "He dropped a weight class because of the needs of the team and won at the 220 level and became a CIF champion. He is the epitome of a team player.” Rodriguez knows how to use his sense of humor to loosen up players. One knows when Rodriguez is at the bottom of a prank because his signature smile always gives him away. Jonna and Jacob are

Time-out for TV sports The â&#x20AC;&#x153;good olâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; daysâ&#x20AC;? are gone. And that is a good thing. I lived in the Valley of the Sun when television reception was more of a disaster than a joke. Before cable. Before satellite. Before hundreds of stations. We had two or three that could be picked up by antennas. Dave Casper was not the only ghost who played football on TV. Every football player, baseball player, basketball player and hockey player looked like a ghost on the tube. Most of the time one could see the football or basketball. Hockey pucks or baseballs? Forget about it. Last week (June 8-14) was the best week of sports coverage in the history of television in Ramona (relatively short and inglorious history at best)! If one had satellite or cable coverage, the tube was a virtual plethora of sports coverage. It is baseball season, and baseball was on for those who are true fans and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like to be bothered by hits
or runs. The Padres were on a road trip and could be seen in most of Ramona. Sorry about that. It is a local story, but six continents are represented in major league baseball. On the national and international levels there was a great sporting event on every night. The NBA finally got around to the finals after what seemed like five months of playoffs and mindless discussions about Donald Sterlingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fitness, rights and ability to own an NBA team. Every member of the Clippers protested, but none failed to cash their checks. Five continents are represented in the NBA, unless you count Russia as two continents, and the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appeal in China is huge so letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call it six. The NHL had the best show on the tube. The Stanley Cup Finals was such great hockey that it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need any fights. Ever notice that fights usually only occur during bad games? I am sure ratings have nothing to do with hockey fights. No coach ever said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Start a brawl or people might change stations or leave early.â&#x20AC;? Hockey is only popular on two continents (unless you count Russia as two), but it is a North American game. The U.S. Open in golf is really open to every continent but Antarctica. Really, we have to get the native Antarcticans to start producing athletes. Hockey would be a natural. Golf, however, is not in the cards. Finding a white ball in all of that snow would be a challenge. Football is Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Game and baseball is Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pastime, but soccer (the rest of the world including Kobe Bryant calls soccer "football") is the International Game. It is played on every continent, and every continent but Antarctica is represented in the World Cup.

The World Series is not really a world series, but the World Cup is really a world cup. This is what I came to realize. Hockey is the most intense sport. It is non-stop full speed action. When a line gets tired, there is a line change. As many as four lines are used in a match. Nobody can take a breather or time off. Every player is in on every play. That is not true in baseball, soccer, basketball or golf. Maybe the fights are not for ratings or to draw fans. They are the only time on the ice when everybody is not active unless it is a bench-clearing brawl. Soccer takes the most skill. However, to a non-football aficionado, a really good football game is about as exciting as watching two men fish. Football has yet to reach the 20th century in officiating. Baseball, hockey, basketball and golf all have TV replays. Football doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even have a visible or accurate game clock. When the match is over, it is not over. The referee indiscriminately awards more time and that is not accurate. One really has to be a golf fan to watch golf on TV. A weekend hacker would jump up and down in joy if he or she could hit a shot that makes most of the pros grimace. The caddies are in good shape and may be the only guys and gals in the world who actually carry clubs on a golf course, besides high school and college golfers. After watching hockey players spit out teeth, get stitches, fight and get slammed into Plexiglas and boards and continue skating, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stand to watch See TIME-out on page B19

By JOE NAIMAN At Ramona High School's track and field post-season banquet, Bulldog Awards were presented to two senior boys: Kevin Carmona and Austin Minnocci. The banquet was held in the Ramona High gym at the end of May, which was earlier than usual due to graduation dates. La Cocina provided food,

which was consumed outside on the campus before the awards presentations inside the gym. "It was a nice end to the season. We had a really good turnout," said head coach Sherri Edwards.

absence. Fisher says that he is humbled and honored by the award and is looking forward to the 2015 season, which will be played on Bard’s new baseball field. Baseball in New York can be a little different at times. Although Fisher has had to adjust to playing during ice storms and shoveling snow off the field before games, he said, “You do whatever it takes to play baseball.” Fisher is pursuing a degree in political science and economics and plans to go to law school.
Fundraiser
Stallman was the most valuable runner, thrower Karah Banegas received the field events high point award, Courtney Jackson was the most valuable vaulter, and Courtney Ford was the most valuable jumper. Max Edwards was the boys most valuable runner and Connor Anderson had the high point award for field events. One boy and one girl, James Meskell and Perla Cruz, each received 110 Percent Effort awards. Anderson was also designated as the most improved thrower. Colin McNulty and Teresa Leon took home most improved distance runner awards. Emily Sojourner was the most improved hurdler recipient. Four girls received fouryear varsity recognition: Banegas, Jackson, Kelci Freeman and Samantha Koegel.
