District breaks deficit spending pattern By MAUREEN ROBERTSON
• William Clarke, 3, just doesn't have much appreciation for fine jewelry. A4
Ramona Unified School District's era of deficit spending may be coming to an end, David Ostermann, assistant superintendent of administrative services, said when he presented the district's "unaudited actuals" financial report to trustees. Another positive, he said, is that, while student
reported to employees last Thursday. "...Has the 13-year trend of declining enrollment finally hit bottom?" The fiscal report Ostermann presented to trustees at a special meeting last Tuesday shows actual numbers as of June 30, the last day of the 201314 fiscal year. Other bud-
Tide of declining enrollment may be slowing, trustees learn enrollment continues to decline, "our decline isn't nearly as great as we had anticipated." Based on the first three days of school, 79 more students than projected are in classrooms, and the higher enrollment is in the elementary schools, he reported.
Enrollment generally fl uctuates early in the school year, and it is not until October that school districts are required to report total student numbers to the state. Ramona Unified's enrollment was 5,644 last year and was 5,586 last Wednesday. The district
had anticipated this year's enrollment at 5,507. "The really good news is that kindergarten numbers are higher than first grade at every elementary school, and four of our six elementary schools have more students today than they had a year ago," Supt. Robert Graeff

A two-acre brush fire that grew to four acres at San Vicente Road and Deviney Lane disrupted Friday afternoon traffic as emergency crews fought the blaze from the ground and air. The fire, reported about 3:40 p.m., spread to both sides of San Vicente, causing California Highway Patrol to close traffic on San Vicente between Warnock Drive and Wildcat Canyon Road just before 4 p.m. This resulted in traffic on Wildcat Canyon Road backing up to Willow Road in Lakeside, CHP reported.

Residents who want to learn more about construction of the San Vicente Road Realignment Project, set to begin Sept. 15, are invited to a public outreach meeting from 7 to 9 p.m. Monday, Sept. 8, in the Charles R. Nunn Performing Arts Center at Olive Peirce Middle School. Facilitating the meeting will be the Ramona Community Planning Group, San Diego County Department of Public Works, Ramona Municipal Water District and Flatiron West, project contractor. The meeting's intent is to inform the community and stakeholders of the upcoming construction project, said Michael Long, project manager with the Department of Public Works engineering services. "A presentation will be given that will provide information on the upcoming project’s scope, benefits, goals, schedule, construction zone access, and contact information for periodic updates and project status," said Long. There will be three opportunities for stakeholders and community members to voice their questions, said Long: •The Sept. 4 Ramona Community Planning

Water authority board supports $7.5 billion state water bond San Diego County Water Authority Board supports Proposition 1, a $7.5 billion state water bond measure on the Nov. 4 ballot. The board vote last Thursday was unanimous. Representing Ramona Municipal Water District, David Barnum, the district's general manager, was among those voting. The Ramona district is one of the water author-
ity's 24 member agencies. The bond, if approved by California voters, would provide money for water-use efficiency and recycling, groundwater cleanup and management, and $2.7 billion for additional water storage. It also would invest in safe drinking water, particularly in disadvantaged communities, and provide for watershed restoration and increased flows in
some of California's most important rivers and streams, including the San Diego River. “California has developed one of the world’s largest and most complex water delivery systems – but as the current drought has shown, we need to continue investing to make our supplies more robust,� said Thomas Wornham, chair of the water authority board. “This bond will
help regions such as San Diego to develop more local water supplies through water recycling and desalination.� According to a statement from the water authority, the proposed bond: •Encourages greater regional and local water supply self-sufficiency by funding direct and See STATE WATER BOND page A2

Sports buff nails dream job as KUSI sports broadcaster Editor's note: This is one in the Sentinel's "Where Are They Now?" series about Ramona graduates — where they are and what they are doing. By PIXIE SULSER To fi nd out where 2003 Ramona High School alum Allie Wagner is, all someone has to do is tune into San Diego’s KUSI television station to catch the former RHS cheerleader in action as a KUSI sports report-
er and co-host of the Friday morning Alarm Clock Pep Rally show. Wagner has loved sports since she was a girl when she and her dad would watch Sunday golf (“A bit boring for a 7-year-old) and Monday Night football (“Much more exciting�). “After my parents divorced, sports were a way to connect with my dad and spend time together. But, my mom is also partially responsible. She put me in every kind of lesson and activity imaginable: golf,
tennis, horseback riding, softball, swimming, and gymnastics!â€? All of which, Wagner says, has come in quite handy when interviewing people such as Tony Gwynn, Tiger Woods, Andy MacDonald, Trevor Hoffman, Mark McGuire, Andy Murray, Steve Garvey — and the list goes on and on. “It’s amazing how many times during an interview the person will ask me, ‘Have you ever‌?’ and I can Allie Wagner broadcasts from Ramona High.

say, ‘Well, as a matter of fact, I took lessons in‌â€? Being able to work at her dream job in her home community of San Diego County is more than Wagner ever expected when, at age 9, she announced to her mom she wanted to go into sports broadcasting when she grew up. Later, throughout her journalism studies at San Diego State University, Wagner heard it was impossible to make it on television in the San Diego market, and that she would have to go elsewhere to pursue her dream job. At one point, Wagner thought she might have to look someplace else or possibly even consider a different profession (law school was a thought), but a lifelong love of sports, relationships in the community and a bit of perseverance provided

life-changing opportunities. While attending college and even after her graduation from SDSU in 2007 when she started working for Clear Channel Radio doing promotions for KOGO/XTRA Sports 1360, Wagner worked in Ramona Albertsons where an older gentleman customer would bring her the daily sports page. They would talk sports and he often remarked she should be on television. He also told her he was friends with Paul Rudy of KUSI and that she should meet him. Well, it just so happened that one day while representing Clear Channel Radio at the Fire Expo held in Qualcomm stadium, Wagner noticed the KUSI team, including Paul Rudy, was also at the Expo. Wagner took her customer’s advice and in-

The meeting led to Wagner’s first official television job as a field reporter for the Prep Pigskin Report (PPR), a show she watched as a child. That was in 2008, and Wagner is entering her sixth year with KUSI and her third as a full-time sports reporter covering the teams she grew up watching. Most memorable interview? “Oh, there are so many! But I recently interviewed LaDainian Tomlinson whose entire football career was here in San Diego. It was really interesting listening to him talk about transitioning into different roles and into retirement. Any time I had the opportunity to interview Tony Gwynn was wonderful.

The water bond contains competitive funding opportunities for the San Diego region to advance local and regional water supply development, says the regional agency: •Chapter 9 would provide $725 million for water recycling and advanced water treatment technology projects — including potable and non-potable reuse and seawater desalination projects — for which San Diego County water suppliers could compete. •Chapter 7 would allocate $52.5 million to the San Diego funding area for local and regional Integrated Regional Water Management projects.
versation afterward was what was really special. Some of the more memorable interviews are the ones where I have a personal connection. Like interviewing Nick Vincent (2004 RHS alum). Nick was in Mr. Hall’s PE class at Olive Peirce Middle School, and I was Mr. Hall’s student aide that same period. Now Nick is in the big leagues with the Padres and I am interviewing him! It’s crazy! During an interview with Reggie Bush, we discussed the CIF football game he played against Ramona, and he commented on what a good quarterback (Tim Plough) we had that year. I immediately messaged Tim Plough on Facebook to tell him what Bush said. Best advice received? “Paul Rudy says we are in the ‘memory making business’ and I try to keep that in mind. That’s what it is about...You are helping make a memory for someone. Some of my favorite moments are putting kids on television and making a memory for them. I used to be that kid who wanted to be on TV, so it’s fun to be able to make that happen for others.� Advice to aspiring broadcast journalists? “Be prepared for a lot of hard work. Get involved any way you can and persevere. When you are told no, just keep plugging away. Consistently work to improve, grow and learn. You have to drive yourself and you have to have a passion for
County Fire Authority, San Diego Country Estates Homeowners Association, Ramona Unifi ed School District and Barona Resort and Casino. The 18-month road project will widen and realign 2.25 miles of San Vicente Road from Warnock Drive to 1,000 feet east of the Wildcat Canyon Road intersection to improve sight distance and make the road safer. San Vicente Road is the main route to San Diego Country Estates. The project is expected to be completed in March 2016. Because the Ramona water district's water main to the Estates is in the county right-of-way, the pipeline will be relocated during construction. From page A1
•Chapter 6 would allocate $475 million to help fulfill state obligations, including mitigation and restoration obligations at the Salton Sea as part of the Colorado River Quantification Settlement Agreement of 2003. •Chapter 7 would provide $100 million for water-use efficiency projects for which San Diego County water suppliers could compete. •Chapter 6 would allocate $17 million to the San Diego River Conservancy for land conservation, open space, habitat, wetlands, and water quality improvement opportunities in the San Diego River watershed. Of the funds that are regionally allocated within the water bond, the San Diego region would receive nearly 11 percent of the total, which the water authority called an equitable and proportional amount.

get reports are predictions, he said. "This is the only time during the year when an accurate picture of any district's finances can be seen," stated Ostermann's report. "It's when we know what we actually spent and what we actually received in the fiscal year," he said. The end-of-the-year report shows the district received $46.9 million in revenue in 2013-14 and spent $45 million, a reversal of the past several years when the district had what Ostermann called a structural imbalance by spending more than it received. "That's about $600,000 better than what we thought we were going to close with at the July 1 budget," said Ostermann. "That's good and that will have significance for this year and next year as well." California last year shifted to a new way of funding schools called Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), leaving districts in "constant flux all year long" until the state certified final numbers in July, said Ostermann. Ramona's funding was high-
er than budgeted, he noted. The district changed insurance providers last year, saving the district about a half a million dollars, he said. The district has about three-quarters of a million dollars left of the $1.2 million the state gave to implement the new Common Core academic standards, he said, adding that the state gave districts two years to spend their allocation. Employee concessions last year, donations to schools and Medi-Cal billing were among other items he listed that contributed to the 2013-14 ending balance of $7.9 million. While the district's financial picture is better than in previous years, Ostermann said it faces two lingering issues: debt repayment and declining enrollment. Successful passage of Proposition Q, the district's $40 million bond measure on the Nov. 4 ballot, will pay off the debt, he said, and early 2014-15 enrollment totals leave the district "optimistic that at least that decline is slowing quite a bit."

Ramona Bulldog Booster Club What is it & what does it do? By NANCY SAPPER “Booster clubs are just there for the football team,” seems to be what many believe of most high school booster groups. That's not the case at Ramona High School. Ramona Bulldog Booster Club (RBBC) raises a lot of money at football games but gives the majority of the money raised to everyone else. The football team gets a percentage of snack bar sales and season tickets purchased, but the remainder of the funds raised at the games and through other fundraisers goes into the bank to provide monetary grants to the not so high profi le team sports and clubs. For example, Coach Jolyn Yanaz dreamed of a state-of-the-art timing device for her boys and girls swim teams. The new device will enable the teams to improve their timing accuracy by 50 percent at home swim meets. The new timers run about $5,000. Coach Yanaz turned to the booster club
for help. By qualifying for 100 percent of her teams’ share of grant money available in April of 2014, she received $3,232 toward the purchase of the new system. With money from the 2014-15 grant, the she will be able to purchase the timer. Longtime boys and girls tennis coach Doug Failla was able to waive the cost of his team banquets and awards at the end of each season with his grant money. Current head tennis coach Rose Darrough, has brought in longtime football coach Gene Andrews as the strength and conditioning coach for this year’s girls tennis team. She hopes to use grant money to pay this volunteer a stipend for his contributions. Sometimes coaches use the grant money for transportation, new uniforms or equipment. Or sometimes they use it to help their team feel they can represent Ramona High with pride. Boys soccer coach Michael Jordan said the grant allows his players to all have nice uniforms and spirit packs.
Booster club grants many times reduces what a coach or leader asks the parents for. It is the booster club’s goal to help ease that burden. “Many team leaders do not take the time to take advantage of this great program,” said Karen Vaughn, the club's treasurer. “It is our goal to distribute nearly all funds raised each and every year. In April of 2014 we had 13 teams/clubs qualify and we distributed just under $19,000. Some clubs/teams don’t even bother applying. I just don’t know why they wouldn’t.” Vaughn is at every home football game selling snack bar tickets and counting receipts sometimes into the wee hours of Saturday, long after the fi eld lights have gone dark at Bulldog Stadium. She does it because she is a proud Bulldog Alum who wants to give back. Although the formula may seem complex to qualify for a grant, it really isn't. The fundamental thrust is to EARN the money for your team or

club via multiple fundraising vehicles. To achieve this students, parents and team or club leadership all need to be involved. Grant applicants need to participate in three Booster fundraisers. One of the opportunities is providing pictures for a sports calendar each season — fall, winter and spring. A sports calendar is produced that focuses on the season and has action shots from each of the sports along with their schedules. There is no selling. Media All Stars, the club's calendar partner, does that by contacting advertisers. The booster club gets a flat fee from the advertising revenue Media All Stars receives. You need only provide pictures of your son or daughter. If your team sends in pictures, then you have participated in a fundraiser. Another opportunity is the seasonal Dawg Tags. Local merchants participate by offering discounts on things Ramonans use every day. Each sporting season a new card (with different vendors each season) is created by the Booster Club, and teams and clubs are encouraged to sell the discount cards. Each card sells for $10 with $2 going to Boosters for material costs and $8 going to the sport or club that sells it. A club or team selling 100 cards

gets $800 just like that. Membership is an integral part of the Booster Club. Families, alumni, coaches, teachers, support staff and community supporters are encouraged to support this endeavor. Each level comes with points that can be assigned to specific clubs and teams. Your support goes directly to help the sport or club you care the most about, or it can be spread amongst several sports. To qualify for grant dollars each team must have at least 50 percent participation from its families or supporters. A higher percentage of participation equals a higher dollar amount available to the team or club. The executive board does the heavy lifting for the club, but it is a team effort with many hands contributing to the success of the club and, in turn, the programs it supports.
Volunteer hours are crucial. Although football offers many opportunities for revenue, RBBC needs lots of parent volunteers to make it happen. Each home game offers opportunities to sell programs, sell snack bar tickets, work in the snack bar and many other jobs that make Ramona’s Friday Night Lights happen for our community. So, when you come to a football game this year, buy a pulled pork sandwich or nachos or a loaded baked potato and feel good knowing that you had a hand in getting that timing device the swim team dreams of, the unpaid coach’s stipend, or the uniform that a boys soccer player wears with such pride. The Ramona Bulldog Booster Club can be reached at www.rbbclub. net. Nancy Sapper is president of the Ramona Bulldog Booster Club.

Spotlight on Local | Businesses Ramona mom ecstatic over company’s crappy job By JESSICA KING At just 3 years old, Ramona resident William Clarke doesn’t have much appreciation for fine jewelry. He does, however, apparently have a fascination with watching it swirl down the toilet. William flushed his mother’s wedding ring down the family’s porcelain throne. With help from Ramona-based business Sludgebusters, the ring was retrieved from the dark, smelly bowels of the family’s septic tank — much to the elation of William’s mother, Natalie. “I was never mad at my son at all,” she said. “They’re kids. They’re curious. It was my fault for not putting it up.” Natalie said s h e took her ring off Natalie Clarke’s around 2 : 3 0 wedding ring a.m., looks good as new after being a f t e r professionally g e t t i n g home cleaned folf r o m lowing its dip in the family’s h e r job as septic tank.
Vendors welcome at Oktoberfest A few spots remain for Oktoberfest food vendors, but booth space is still available for craft and business vendors, Ramona Chamber of Commerce reports. The chamber's 10th Annual Oktoberfest will be at Ramona Community Center, 434 Aqua Lane, on Saturday, Oct. 4, from 1 to 10 p.m. Booth spaces measure 12 feet by 12 feet. Oktoberfest will include an area featuring craft beers and Ramona wines, dancing music from the Kalifornia Krauts band, Kids Zone with a pumpkin patch and activities, and more.
looked all over bathroom, then I asked my son and he pointed to the toilet and said ‘Mommy’s ring.’ My heart sunk.” The ring was flushed down the toilet in early July. By the time William had told his mother where the ring was, the toilet had been flushed at least four to five times, she said. The Clarkes then waited about two months to have their septic tank pumped because their landlord wanted to be present. “Once a year, maybe every two, we get a call like this,” said Sludgebusters owner Ed Kapelczak, noting other common items he’s been called upon to retrieve include dentures. The entire process, including pumping and shifting through the debris, took about two and half hours. Kapelczak and one of his longtime employees, Bryan Scruggs, performed the work. “It’s very rewarding,” said Kapelczak. “Some people are emotionally attached to things like this.” The ring was a 10-year anniversary gift from Natalie’s husband, who sur-
prised her with it in April. The couple married young when Natalie was just 19. She described her original wedding ring as a tiny gold band with a single tiny diamond. The new ring, which she wore for about a month before it was flushed, is made up of several diamonds. “Yes it did cost money, obviously, but I don’t really care about that,” said Natalie. “It was for our 10year anniversary. We have three kids, we made it work, people didn’t think we could … and the fact that my husband went out and did this on his own, surprising me with it like he did, (makes) the ring priceless to me.” About an hour and a half into what she called a messy and gross process, Natalie started to believe the ring was lost forever. “It looked impossible, to be honest,” said Natalie. “I felt really bad, like maybe it wasn’t worth it. I didn’t want to put the guy through this.” Then something shiny caught Natalie’s eye and she could not contain her excitement, screaming at
the top of her lungs. “She’s probably our most excited customer,” said Kapelczak. “In fact, she scared us when she spotted the ring on our screen.” Once retrieved, the ring went into 50 percent bleach and water solution, then alcohol overnight. It was professionally cleaned the next day. “Ed and Bryan made me feel so comfortable,” said Natalie. “They were so friendly and caring, and they just found it. It’s a miracle.”
You can blame Marcel Proust
you while you’re shopping helps you relax — and buy. Smell has the ability to instantaneously call up powerful memories. Regular exposure to a scent can trigger a conditioned response or influence your mood. French author Marcel Proust’s novel, "Remembrance of Things Past," linked smell and memory. Professional marketers call this phenomenon the Proustian Effect. But smells affect people differently, right? Smelling bacon reminds me of lazy Sunday morning breakfast. You might think of an abattoir (a slaughterhouse). Such randomness makes using scent to attract business an imprecise science. It should be just one piece
of the puzzle, best used when tied in as a sample strip in a piece of direct mail, at the point of purchase or in a controlled environment (so-called “smell-o-vision,” like in a movie theater). However, if my bride’s reaction was any indication of the general public’s, the gentle subtleties of smell are almost certainly impacting your sales for good or ill. Bottom line: Follow my father’s advice and always look and smell your best. And should you be meeting your clientele in any brick and mortar environment, make sure it smells and looks nice as well. With that said, I wish you a week of profitable marketing.

Watching her choice to buy or not based strictly on olfactory input was an interesting exercise. It made me wonder how much the sense of smell affects our buying decisions. With auditory input overwhelming your ears and visual imagery hitting you from every direction, scent marketing has become the latest marketing frontier. Retailers, hotels and restaurants hire scent companies to provide subtle, distinctive, carefully con-
sidered smells that help amplify consumer spending, attract customers and create memorable brands — oftentimes without you realizing it. That’s why the air in the parking lot at Costco smells of freshly baked goods. Your mouth waters before you’ve walked through the door. Similarly, my real estate agent friends advise home sellers to bake cookies before they hold an open house. Some businesses consider scents an integral part of their overall image, along with music, logos and décor. Their almost subliminal messaging surrounding

ties and police officers. The program’s first phase, which Thomas completed several years ago, is the equivalent of a basic police academy. In this phase topics include the administration of justice, criminal law, offi cer safety, traffic enforcement, juvenile procedures, physical conditioning and training. The intermediate phase is the equivalent of inservice training for a police offi cer. In this phase classroom training is provided in connection with hands-on, practical and field exercises. Topics covered include high-risk stops, officer safety, basic investigation techniques, firearm familiarization and physical conditioning and training. In the third and final phase, which Thomas has completed twice, is built around leadership, organizational skills and advanced field training, and covers topics from leadership and team building to
specialized investigation and supervision. “My favorite thing in the advanced phase is the use-of-force simulator,” Thomas said. The simulator tests Explorers in a variety of real-life situations including domestic violence, active shooter and hot-stop traffic scenarios. “That is why I wanted to repeat phase three,” she said. “There's always something to learn no matter how many times you do something.” This year Thomas clocked the fastest female times on the obstacle course. The course includes hurdles, weave poles, a 6-foot wall, “grenade” toss, stutterstep tires and dragging the 150-pound “Deputy Dave” dummy, a skill she attributes to years of unloading and stacking hay bales for her horses. The San Diego Sheriff’s Explorer Program allows young men and women to explore all aspects of modern law enforcement
by on-the-job exposure to the county department’s various duties. “Explorer personnel perform a tremendous service to the citizens of San Diego County,” Sheriff Bill Gore said. “The Explorers who serve the department and community without compensation truly exemplify the spirit of striving for the public good.” As a deputy Explorer
based at the sheriff's substation in Ramona, Thomas, a 2013 Mountain Valley Academy graduate, has worked alongside deputies for the past three years doing ride-alongs and assisting in missing person search-andrescues and evacuations during the recent Cocos fire. She volunteers a minimum of 20 hours a month to the community.

By KAREN BRAINARD Changes to the county's beekeeping ordinance are scheduled to be presented to the Board of Supervisors Oct. 29, said an entomologist involved with the project. Dr. Tracy Ellis with the county's Department of Agriculture, Weights and Measurements has been meeting with community planning groups in unincorporated areas of the county to explain a proposed three-tiered system of beekeeping and receive feedback. She met with the Ramona Community Planning Group on Aug. 7. "We address the concerns of the hobbyist beekeepers," she said, explaining that the current ordinance focuses on commercial beekeeping. Ellis said county staff has been

collaborating with the San Diego Beekeeping Society on the proposal. The recommended three tiers are: A, the hobbyist who has up to two hives; B, the mid-line who has up to 20 hives; and C, the commercial beekeeper. In the county there are 11 commercial beekeepers, said Ellis, who estimates anywhere from 500 to 1,000 backyard beekeepers, but said only about 65 are registered with the county. In Ramona around 10 beekeepers are registered with one of those considered commercial, she said. By state law, anyone who has a hive should register with the county, she said, but many do not because they are not in compliance. The current ordinance states a 600-

foot setback is required between bee hives and dwellings. "This is a push to get people into compliance," she said. There is no cost to register if under 10 hives, she said. In the proposed tiered approach the setback from dwellings is reduced to 300 feet for commercial or Tier C, 100 feet for Tier B, and 35 feet for Tier A, Ellis told the Ramona planning group. According to Ellis, county staff is addressing sensitive sites, such as kennels and outdoor facilities, by protecting them with greater setback distances required for nearby beekeepers. Beekeepers, she said, should have 100 percent European honey bees, as the Africanized honey bees are more aggressive.

OPINION
Ramona: A town that supports children By TONY NEWMAN
I
n 1978 while searching for a community to raise their three children, my parents took the drive up the hill and made their first trip into Ramona. They traveled along the giant, tree-lined main street into town and, in an effort to get a flavor of the community, they stopped at Kountry Kitchen for a hearty breakfast. It was there that my parents began to interact and talk with many of the locals who were also out eating breakfast. That morning, each local patron spoke highly of Ramona and what a great place it was to raise a family and how supportive the community was of children. Based on those interactions (and, I think, the delicious biscuits and gravy), my parents made a decision before looking at even one house that Ramona was to be our family’s home. That choice was one of the best decisions for our family. Thirty-six years later and while currently raising our four children in Ramona, I still think it’s a great community to raise a family because of our community’s support of children. Ramona has a history of supporting children in the community. Walk into almost any business or office in Ramona and you can find plaques adorning the walls, thanking community members and businesses for their support of local youth programs. Each of these programs would struggle without the financial and moral support provided by this community. My parents owned one of these businesses years ago. I always felt I was a lucky kid to have parents who owned and operated a doughnut shop, KD’s Doughnuts. I felt this way not just for the warm glazed twist I would get to eat hot out of the oven, but because through this business our family was blessed to get to know so many community members. Over the years, my parents as business owners were oftentimes asked to donate either doughnuts or money to support the community’s youth in these local programs. My parents would answer the call for support time and time again. They did so because they wanted to give back to the community that supported their children and family. This was their way of supporting other children and those community members who donate their time and talents to run these programs on behalf of the children in Ramona. This November, members of our community will be asked to support once again the children and students of Ramona by voting YES on Proposition Q — a local school improvement measure. Successful passage of this proposition will provide much needed funds to See NEWMAN COMMENTARY page B5
Guest Commentary
Let's look at school district facts By KRISTINA KROHNE In response to Mr. Dyer’s commentary last week condemning the school board, Ramona Unified School District and its recent bond proposal, please let me correct some of his opinions with the truth. First, the district has not hired a campaign consultant. To do so would be illegal. The Bond Campaign Committee has also not hired a consultant. The entire campaign is being run completely by volunteers or staff members outside of their work day. Many of their names were printed in last week’s Sentinel in a separate article. Second, it is true that the district is hiring new employees. With an increased number of students enrolled than anticipated and a large number of retirees last spring, teachers and support personnel have been hired to maintain acceptable class sizes. As of Aug. 28, enrollment is 80 students higher than projected and kindergarten is increasing faster than other lower grade levels. Of course, the District is hiring new teachers. Would Mr. Dyer be satisfied with 50 students in a classroom? Third, our schools are adding electives. How can any responsible resident find fault with our schools adding French, Construction Trades,
Pre-Engineering, Advanced Journalism, and new courses in Agriculture and Performing Arts? Fourth, Proposition Q will not cost homeowners “several hundreds of dollars” in annual property taxes. With a tax rate of only $39 per $100,000 of assessed (not market) value, the average homeowner in Ramona will pay $120 per year. As a responsible citizen, I implore all Ramonans to visit the Ramonausd.net website to get the facts regarding Prop. Q. Fifth, Mr. Dyer mentions that property values will not be affected by a state takeover. Please chat with the citizens of Oakland, Compton, Inglewood and — with San Ysidro joining soon — and ask them how their homes are selling since their state takeover. Visit school campuses in Poway, San Marcos and Escondido where school bonds pass regularly. I guarantee you would not choose Compton over Poway. Sixth, some residents may have missed the news release by the district last week at a special board meeting. In its annual year-end report, the district showed in detail how it has now ended deficit spending brought on by the Great Recession. With no salary raises since 2008, healthcare costs finally contained, total employees reduced by more than 200 workers in recent See KROHNE COMMENTARY page B5
recent years, the district is doing what it can to improve its budget and bring the focus back to education. Finally, take a look at the test scores mentioned. The ACT results have just been released and the online results show that more RUSD grads took the prestigious college entrance exam last year than ever before. They achieved higher local results and beat state and national results in every testing category. More and more of our Ramona graduates are entering prestigious colleges and universities each year, including four appointments to our national

military academies last June. Of course, our schools are not perfect. But do not tear apart our local schools with misinformation. Our children deserve the best education that we can provide, along with similar facilities as their friends “down the hill.” It is time for Ramona to stand up for kids on this long overdue school bond and vote Yes on Q.

Ice bucket challenge floods social media By KAREN BRAINARD All around Ramona, as well as across the country, residents are fi nd ing themselves nominated for the ALS ice bucket challenge via social media. Coldwell Banker Country Realty agents recently jumped on the bandwagon, or rather stood under the skip loader, for a group dousing of the frigid water. Tammy Badgett, office manager and Realtor at Coldwell Banker, said members of the offi ce will also be donating to an ALS charity. "We just don't know the dollar figure yet," she said. The ice bucket challenge is raising awareness for the disease, with the ALS Association reporting that donations have been
pouring in this summer. Between July 29 and Aug. 27, the association had received $94.3 million in donations compared to $2.7 million during the same time period last year. ALS — amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, also known as Lou Gehrig's Disease — is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord, according to the ALS Association. Patients in the later stages of the disease may become totally paralyzed, and the progressive degeneration of the motor neurons in ALS eventually leads to death, says the association. There is no cure, but an FDA-approved drug has been shown to slow the progression of ALS and other drugs show similar promise, the asso-
ciation reports on its website. The ALS Association credits Pete Frates, a 29-year-old Beverly, Mass., resident who has ALS, and his family for helping to make the ice bucket challenge go viral on social media sites. Earlier this summer some professional athletes challenged each other to pour ice on their heads or donate $100 to a charity. For those unfamiliar with details of the challenge, it involves a person agreeing to be doused with a bucket of ice water on video, posting that video to social media, and then nominating others to do the same in an effort to raise ALS awareness. People who have been challenged are supposed to follow through within 24 hours of be-
ing nominated or donate $100 to ALS. Some postings say to take the challenge and also donate $10. Those accepting the challenge are supposed to acknowledge in their video who nominated them and nominate at least three others. Coldwell Banker Realtor Jennifer Szewczynski nominated her offi ce, and Bob Ballantyne of Bob Ballantyne Grading donated use of the skip loader for the challenge. The real estate agents and office staff turned around and challenged the following: Marketing Worx, Ransom Brothers Lumber & Supply Co., Star's Gas Station, Eagle Peak Escrow, Cornerstone Therapeutic Riding Center, Ramona Municipal Water District,

Business invites children to celebrate beauty Following the launch of its How Big Is Your Brave Campaign in May, Isis Fuller Figure Fashion turns its attention to children. Body image is the way individuals perceive their body and assume other people perceive them, notes Isis owner Sally Hilton. By the age of 13, 53 percent of girls are unhappy with their body, and by the
time they are young women that jumps to 91 percent, said Hilton. "The only way to help the issues faced by women is education and an open discussion about how we are all equal regardless of shape or size, no fat shaming, no thin shaming and a philosophy that your body image is not connected See CHILDREN'S ART page B7

to your self-worth," said Hilton. Isis Fuller Figure Fashion invites children to create a picture, painting or drawing of a female role model in their life that they see as beautiful, and explain how that person is beautiful. Each piece of art will be displayed in the Ramona business. "This is a great way to involve chil-
ing to portrait painting as a career. At an early age, he started sketching the human face. This led to a job as a portrait artist at Disneyland as he continued to take workshops to hone his talent. In 2005, his received first place in the San Diego County All Member Show sponsored by the

Artwork will be accepted through Sept. 30 with the name and age of the child at the store at 711 Main St.

Cuyamaca State Park and the squeaky wheel
C
uyamaca Rancho State Park is undergoing a transformation, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not too late to be heard on the matter. The nearly 25,000-acre park has acquired more land and is adjacent to Anza Borrego State Park as well as other public lands and trails. The third and fi nal public meeting was held nearly a year ago and the public comment period is now open. With all of the changes planned, it would take a book to explain them all to you, but in a nutshell here we go: You know the saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;The squeaky wheel gets the grease?â&#x20AC;?
Well it seems to be working out that way with the changes in Cuyamaca Rancho State Park and some other state parks. The bicycling community is large and has a strong, united opinion on how to use our parks and trails as well as how to gain more access to areas they havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had access to previously. This is the goal of trail users in general â&#x20AC;&#x201D; more trails. They have successfully forced changes within parks across the state to increase the trail miles to which their members have access. The equestrian community, however, while somewhat vocal has seemed less involved, less organized in the process and seems to be actually losing ground. Trails as well as other facilities within the
state park system are being used in ways never before seen. Recently the state park system has been allowing non-horse groups to use camps that have been built and dedicated to equestrians, and it has allowed more mixed use on trails than in the past. This website will provide information on how the Parks Programmatic Environmental Impact Report for Changes to Trail Use proposes changing trail use: www. parks.ca.gov/?page_id=26278. A group of about 90 equestrians gathered in August to discuss the proposed park policies and expressed concerns regarding safety for equestrians and non-equestrians alike. They are concerned for the safety of the animals and people being allowed to mix in areas never before allowed, including campgrounds and trails. Safety was the number one concern of the group with the second biggest concern being loss of equestrian use that is already limited within the state park system. A community member attending the August meeting stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Isn't it a

clear case of discrimination if nonequestrians can use horse camp and equestrians are denied use of all other public campgrounds? That is NOT why State Parks was founded. In 1945 the state Legislature passed the CRHT to ensure that riders would have full access to the park, particularly the routes established long before the park acquired the land. Subsequently the emergency Keene Collier Bill was passed to provide campsites, and the Dunlap Bill was passed to provide connections between public lands. State Parks openly discriminates against equestrians despite pre-existing historic and cultural uses that are grandfathered in, perhaps even violations of our California Constitution.â&#x20AC;? Another called out, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think policies should be in place throughout California State Parks. Equestrian camps built for and by equestrians should be equestrian (use) only and fees to said camps should be consistent across the state.â&#x20AC;?

See a show, win a scholarship Ramona teen stars in the production Art Animates Life is partnering with California State University San Marcos, the San Marcos Arts Council and the San Marcos Community Foundation to bring the historical stage production, "Passage Into Fear," to San Marcos' Connors Hall. To underscore the play's historical accuracy, history and social science teachers are encouraged to assign attending the show as extra credit. A copy of the play is available to any teacher upon request. Students who submit a 300-word to 500-word essay outlining what they learned about the war will be eligible to receive a $500 scholarship from
Art Animates Life, the play's producer. Complete details are at artanimateslife.org. "Passage Into Fear" is a thriller inspired by classics such as Alfred Hitchcock's "The Lady Vanishes" and "Strangers on a Train," and Agatha Christie's "Murder on the Orient Express." The play, set in 1917 during the waning days of World War I, is being presented in conjunction with a series of the 100year observances of the Great War taking place across the globe. The early 20th century is further brought to life by period music, song, sets and costumes, along with computer-controlled lighting and sound effects. Ramona High student Shannon Linder plays the
courageous, irrepressible American, Kate Hedly, in the production. The daughter of Lou Ann and Mark Linder, Shannon played the part of Belle in the PowPac production of "Mr. Scrooge & Mr. Dickens" three years ago. She also has been in "Alice in Wonderland," "The Little Mermaid" and many Ramona High drama productions. Also in the cast are John Aviles, Marsi Carr, Betsy Toker, Baruch Guerro, Peter Bunn, Audrey Linder, Laura Makey, Julio C. Mas, Aisa Diaz, Jeff Makey and Milburn Stevens. "Passage Into Fear" is set onboard a transcontinental passenger train. An elderly woman, Miss Lillian Merriweather, boards the train insisting she knows of a plot on an interna-
tional scale, then promptly disappears. Other characters include a young American woman on a final fling in Venice before returning home to be unhappily married, a pugnacious 8-year-old war orphan, a member of Parliament and his wife, an elderly gypsy who has wandered the continent homeless for more than 50 years, a handsome young Swiss doctor hiding an immense secret, and a ruthless German countess bent on achieving her evil ends no matter who gets in her way. The solution to Miss Merriweather's disappearance ultimately has its roots in understanding

The Art Center aims to connect community with artist
T
his fall sees the opening of the The Art Center in Ramona, where everything from traditional to expressive art will be explored. The centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission is to create an inclusive community art space, where the community and the artist are put into direct contact, states the announcement of the center's opening. "We are interested in creating a rural community art space, where traditional, expressive and conceptual artists come in contact with each other and the larger community," said Helen Wilson, the center's director. "We envision a place where the art is paramount and the atmosphere is intelligent, educational and welcoming, a professional place where local artists, visiting artists, emerging artists and established artists mingle. Our goal is the building of an artistic community through socialization thereby removing the often-isolating ef-
fect of working as an artist in a rural area." Imagine a large space for artists to work and where classes are taught and exhibitions and art talks are held, continued Wilson. They are starting small with one room at 1140 Main St., Suite 208, said Wilson, outlining a fall schedule that includes classes with some of Ramonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top artist/instructors in a variety of media. Three classes are under way, with other classes and workshops beginning in October and continuing into January. Tuesday Nights began about four years ago. Its fall version started Aug. 26 and promises to be fun. This four-class session explores the idea of "the Gift and the Box it came in" and examines the traditions of giving and receiving. It concludes with an exhibition. Wilson, an internationally
exhibited artist with a Masters of Fine Arts from The San Francisco Art Institute and a bachelor's in English from USIU, is Tuesday Nights' creator and facilitator. She also teaches at Palomar College.
The second class to start is Tracy Potterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fiber Arts, which started Monday, Labor Day, is an exploration of media/techniques on fabric. Using a 12by-12 format, participants will explore surface design and mixed media techniques on fabric. Potter's bi-monthly sessions will develop themes and challenges through creative play in a supportive environment. She has a Bachelor of Science degree in art education and elementary education from Western Michigan University. She also has a master's degree in reading education from San Diego State University and she taught at the elementary level
for 17 years. A working fiber artist, her art can be seen at www.tracypotterfiberart.com. Her classes are the first and third Mondays from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Lark Burkhart is teaching Book Artsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Basics and Beyond. Burkhart has been making artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s books for a dozen years. Her work has been shown in juried exhibitions in California, Oregon, Washington and Hawaii and is part of several publications, including "1000 Artists Books" and "500 Handmade Books, volume 2." She has studied with artists at San Francisco Center for the Book, the Athenaeum, Foothill College, Focus on Book Arts, Idyllwild Summer Arts Program and Palomar College. Her books are held in private and university library collections. Those in her class will play with skill-building exercises and collaborations in class and
work toward the completion of a fully realized artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book. Her four once-monthly classes started on Sept. 2 and are limited to six. Her work can be seen at www.jumpingcrowstudio. com. Artist Susan Bainbridge begins her Art Start for ages 7 to 14 classes in October. For about 20 years, Art Start has been inspiring children in Poway and San Diego and will now be offered at The Art Center. Students are invited to learn to draw and express themselves through art. Bainbridge will use directed drawing techniques to encourage students to develop their drawing skills, confidence and imagination. A variety of media will be explored: pencil, watercolor, markers and pastels, as well as one clay project (because kids love it!). All materials See THE ART CENTER page B14

The weeklong auditions culminated with a oneon-one interview and a final dance audition. James was one of 22 to make the team. Until the Los Angeles Lakers' games start, she will be practicing three hours on Tuesdays and on Thursdays. Being a Laker Girl is a paid position. The 22-year-old James is passionate about dance. "I've been dancing my entire life," she said. Her training included attending Ramona/Julian Academy of Dance during grade school and
The Element Dance Center in La Mesa in middle school, as well as participating on the song team at Ramona High School. At Cal State University Long Beach she majored in dance and made the college dance team. Now that she has earned her degree, she teaches dance at a studio in Huntington Beach and instructs dance camps through Universal Dance Association. Last year, James tried out to be a Laker Girl and was a finalist but did not make the team. "You definitely have to have training," she said, adding that those who

"We do a lot of appearances and charity events as well, so I'm excited to do that," she said. The daughter of Matt and Diana James of Ramona said she is looking forward to performing in front of all the fans at the Staples Center. "We'll be out there all throughout the game," she said. Her parents plan to attend as many games as they can, she added.

Bulldogs dominate Braves in football's season opener Brandon Gansch returns with a flourish, rushing for 159 yards on 10 carries and scoring four touchdowns. By NANCY SAPPER
amona Sentinel
Ramona High School's varsity football team won big, 55-13, in their road trip to El Cajon Valley High Friday night. This year’s Bulldog squad opened their season against the same opponent as last season — with a similar result. The Dawgs jumped out to an insurmountable lead early with the score 41-0 at the end of the first quarter. Last season’s firstteam all-league running back, Brandon Gansch, returned with a flour-
ish as he rushed for 159 yards on 10 carries and scored 4 touchdowns on the night. Gansch is running this season with an angel on his shoulder pads after his father's death in a motorcycle accident this summer. James Gansch was a super fan not just of Brandon, but of all the Ramona players. As such, the team has chosen to honor James by wearing his initials on their helmets this season. Brandon seemed to score at will during the game. Marco Cobian, the ju-
Junior Erik Schmidt runs the ball in one of his two rushing touchdowns for the Bulldogs.
nior quarterback who was a first-team All Palomar League pick last season, was seven of nine passing for 192 yards and two touchdowns. Six Bulldog receivers led by Christian Dominguez caught passes in the game. Dominguez juked defenders and then raced 70 yards up the Braves’ sideline for the touchdown. Conner Anderson scored on a play action pass for a 15-yard touchdown reception. Backup quarterbacks Cameron Rowles and David Scodallero both got snaps under center to see their first varsity action. Junior Erik "E.J." Schmidt had a strong showing with two rushing touchdowns and 51 yards on the night. Other offensive contributors were Garrett Binkley, Shawn Coane, Austin Goodwin, Tyler Vargas and Wyatt Scott. The Dawgs’ defense dominated the first half. El Cajon Valley never made it past midfield and only had one first down in the entire first half. Starters Garrett Binkley, Brett Cooper, Dallas Domnitz, the Crichlow brothers (Keyshaun and Keyno), Raul Briseno and Grady Vazquez simply dominated the Braves. Tyler Vargas, 2013 Kicker of the Year, was seven for eight in points after attempts, booting a 48-yard punt and kicking off eight times — 6 of which were touchbacks — his longest a 60-yard beauty. Head coach Damon Baldwin fi elded his best

B a l dw i n team as the game got unsaid he was proud that all der way. But it was clear that the El Cajon Val- 42 active players on his ley Braves were just no roster got to play. “It’s always exciting match for the boys from when each player gets Ramona. At the end of the first a chance to see game quarter, the El Cajon Val- situations," said Baldwin.
"Brandon Gansch, Garrett Binkley and Marco Cobian would have had HUGE statistical numbers had they been allowed to play all four quarters. We pulled our starters after the first half for the sake of good sportsmanship and CIF ethics.” Looking forward to their next battle, Baldwin said Point Loma is going to be tough to beat. “Although the coaching staff is very proud of our kids for the crisp execution and hard play versus El Cajon Valley, we need to bear down, we have a long way to go to meet expectations, but this was a start,” he said. All three Bulldog teams will play away, at Pt. Loma High School, on Saturday, Sept. 6. Freshman play at 10 a.m., JV at 12:30 p.m. and varsity goes at 3 p.m.
Bulldog runners will compete Sept. 12 in Mustang Invitational in Chula Vista By JOE NAIMAN The 2014 season debut of Ramona High School's cross country teams August 30 at the Vaquero Stampede in Lakeside included the Bulldogs winning the junior-senior boys competition. Ramona defeated Del Norte by 3 points in the Aug. 30 race. The Bulldogs had a total of 38 points while the Nighthawks finished the race with 41 points. El Capitan placed third. Ramona, Del Norte, and El Capitan are all in Division III for CIF meet purposes. The top three Division III teams at the CIF
meet will qualify for the state meet. "It was kind of a nice preview for the season," said Sherri Edwards, Ramona's cross country head coach. Ramona's 10 runners in the junior-senior boys race included the third through fifth finishers and four of the 12th through 16th times. The course at Lindo Lake Park was 2.15 miles. Junior Gabe Plendcio took third place with a time of 10:53. Senior Isaiah Spieker was fourth at 10:54, and senior Max Edwards completed the course in 11:02 for fifth place. Junior Joey Jauregui fin-
ished the race just ahead of El Capitan's Ben Sellers, who also had a time of 11:13, to give Jauregui 12th place. The 14th through 16th times were 11:14 for junior Colin McNulty, 11:15 for senior Colin Uekert, and 11:19 for senior James Meskell. Senior Sam Clough finished 22nd with a time of 11:38, senior Matt Meskell posted a time of 11:49 for 26th place, and junior Jackson Sutter took 37th place with a 12:05 performance. The other three races were on a 1.65-mile course. Ramona's freshman-sophomore girls took third as a team. Gwendolyn Gibson, a sophomore who spent last year in the Bulldogs' vol-
leyball program, took 13th place with a time of 10:50. Sophomore Marissa Talle was 23rd at 11:37, sophomore Mikaila McNary had the 29th-place time of 11:52, sophomore Nicole Pshsniak was the 34th finisher after a 12:10 performance, and freshman Madison Huckey placed 37th with a time of 12:13. The Bulldog juniorsenior girls team placed fourth. A time of 10:25 gave junior Perla Cruz seventh place, senior Anna Sundrud placed tenth at 10:38, junior Chloe Knowd finished 21st with a time of 11:26, junior Katherine Lorentz crossed the finish line in 24th place 11:46 after the start of the race, junior Robyn Turner took 25th place and raced

22nd-place time of 9:27. "I'm pleased. I'm still recruiting," Edwards said. Edwards had planned to be the assistant coach this year and focus on recruiting girls to the cross country program. She took over as head coach when Steve Albanese, who was Ramona's boys cross country coach from 2009 to 2013 and the 2013 girls cross country coach, accepted a job at Escondido Charter School. Ramona's 2008 head coach, Steve Emery, will be Edwards' assistant. "We've been training all summer," Edwards said. The Bulldog runners will follow the Sept. 12 school day with a trip to Rohr Park in Chula Vista for the Mustang Invitational meet.

for 11:56, and junior Lexie Hall became the 34th finisher 11:26 after the starter's gun was fired. Because five runners are needed for a team score, Ramona's freshman-sophomore boys did not place as a team. The top Ramona finisher was freshman Brandon Ruland, whose time of 8:58 placed him fifth among the 68 runners. The first four finishers were all sophomores. "That was exciting for him to place that high," Edwards said. Ramona's other three runners in that race were sophomores. Danny Edwards was 13th at 9:15, Colton Meskell placed 16th with a time of 9:17, and Chance Hardin had the

The Four Cornerstones of Fitness Nutrition
When it comes to fitness and feeling and looking better, as well as performing at your peak levels, proper nutrition is the foundation for success. There's a ton more science and practicality when it comes to nutrition than shared here, so bear that in mind as you read, but here are my “Four Cornerstones of Fitness Nutrition.” Eat Real Food It’s important that we keep the majority of the foods you eat “real.” What I mean by this is not out of a package, and not
processed. Keep 80 percent of the food in your house package free and you will be on your way to eliminating tons of chemicals, excess calories, sodium and preservatives. Real foods are REAL COLORS — reds, greens, orange and yellows. Real foods are not usually florescent blues, pinks and yellow. Pass on those brightly colored “fruit” drinks, as well as those boxed lunch packs in the cooler you probably give your kids. Buy real meat from a butcher, not from the
frozen section, and buy unpackaged veggies from the produce section. Yes, this can be more expensive, but the real foods are more nutrient dense, taste better and are just much better for you. Quantity Unless you're an Olympic athlete training six to eight hours per day, you better pay pretty darn close attention to how much food you put into your body. The Michael Phelpses of the world can get away with unmetered eating but if you're a mere mortal like most of us, you better keep that quantity in check. Imagine this: 50 extra calories per day than your body requires will, over five years, add 26 pounds of
Intra soccer boys ready for season after Attack Summer Classic 2014 Ramona Boys Intra soccer team returned with a 2-1 record in the Attack Summer Classic 2014 at the University of San Diego campus in La Jolla. The boys scored a 2-0 victory over Vista Storm in their fi rst game on Saturday, Aug. 16. Eduardo Saucedo scored one of the goals and Andrick Molinero the other. They played their second game of the afternoon against Attack 98 Black and were again victorious, this time with a 5-0 win. Saucedo scored two of the goals with Molinero, Jesus Gutierrez and Luis Castellano each scoring a goal. On Sunday, Aug. 17, the boys played TVSA Hawks-Gregory. Ramona scored
early in the game with a goal by stopper Victor Velasco, and the boys dominated the game for a majority of the first half, with with a score by Hawks late in the first half, the game was tied at halftime. With one minute left in the second half, Hawks scored on a corner kick, ending the game with a 1-2 loss for Ramona. The boys did not advance to finals. Coach Gabriel Ocampo said the boys played well over the weekend. Their final pre-season tournament was played over Labor Day weekend in the San Diego Labor Day Cup in El Cajon. Results were not available by the time the Sentinel went to press.

body fat to your frame. One Oreo cookie is 50 calories. Please don't believe those who tell you calories and the amount of food you eat really don't matter. They do. Frequency In general practice, I like to see my clients have three “meals” and two “snacks.” This usually sets them up to eat every three hours and keeps their blood sugar and intern appetite under control. Binging and gorging in practice sounds effective. Starve yourself all day so you can have that big meal out on the town at night. The funny thing is, when we wait so long to eat, we somehow feel justifi ed and deserving of having that appetizer and dessert and end up eating more than we need, or would have if we ate normally during the rest of the day. A better plan is to graze lightly throughout the day, keep the appetite under control and have a sensible, portion-con-
trolled meal out on the town. Balance Balance is two-fold. One must have balance in the quantities of carbs, fats and proteins, and balance in letting yourself have some freedom from time to time. No, we don’t eat an equal amount of these nutrients, so don’t misunderstand what I mean by balance. There are fibrous, starchy and simple carbs. I like to see clients pyramid them in this order. The majority of your carbs should come from fi brous, leafy and colorful vegetables, then moderate starchy carbs like breads, pastas and tubers, which one would typically eat earlier in the day. Then lastly, minimal fruits and simple sugars, again early in the day. Good, natural proteins can come from meat, dairy, fish and some legumes. See a registered dietician or nutrition coach for the exact numbers. Balance also means
giving yourself a break from time to time. You can’t always be “on” the program. In fact, it will do your body, metabolism and mind some good to eat freely for a meal or two per week. This OCCASIONAL boost in calories will ignite your metabolism and give you extra energy for the next days workout. It also gives you a mental reprieve and often motivates you to stick to the program the rest of the week. Keep in mind, you can’t have a cheat meal every day — only OCCASIONALLY. As a DotFit Nutrition coach and personal trainer I see the most successful clients practice these Four Cornerstones of Fitness Nutrition. Make one positive change in each of these areas this week and be you, only better!
