Fire chief and wife look forward to life’s next chapter BY KAREN BRAINARD fter a combined nearly 70 years in fire service with few get-away vacations, the Fosters are ready to travel, and their smiles show it. "A lot of travel," said Ramona Fire Department District Chief/Cal Fire Battalion Chief Steve Foster, who is retiring April 6. Steve came to the Ramona Fire Department at the beginning of 2014 as battalion chief and fire marshal and was promoted to chief Jan. 1, 2016. "We pick up the fifth wheel the day after he is officially retired," added wife Karen, already enjoying retirement after hanging up her gear last December from the Chula Vista Fire Department, where she was a fire inspector II/investigator. The Ramona couple's travels will not be limited to land. Karen got Steve to take a cruise a few years ago to Alaska and he loved it. They already have a cruise booked to the Eastern Caribbean for early next year. SEE FIRE CHIEF, A18

School district honors Employees of the Year Caylor Nuth

Ashli Krainock

BY MAUREEN ROBERTSON To not be idle is a gift, and so is working at a job you love, said Caylor Nuth, Ramona Unified’s Classified Employee of the Year. “I absolutely love it,” Nuth said of her work as a para-educator and instructional aide at Montecito High School. “It doesn’t feel like a job. It makes life pretty wonderful.” The 27-year Ramona resident said the honor came as a surprise on a recent Monday morning, when a group of people walked into Nick Jordan’s construction class at Montecito High, some holding cameras. “What are all these people coming in here for?” she wondered as she stood in the classroom near several students. With the district superintendent and assistant superintendent among those coming in the room — and at least one camera pointed in her direction — she began to realize. “I was so embarrassed,” she said. “That school is full of people who are loving SEE NUTH, A11

Staffieri and Assistant Superintendent Tony Newman presented Krainock with her award that includes a $1,000 stipend on March 14, surprising her and her students in their classroom. Krainock, a transitional kindergarten/kindergarten teacher, is credited for her support of under-resourced students and finding ways to help every child reach 100 percent success. “The work she is doing is so complex,” Mt.

Lawyers: Hunter will cooperate with probe City News Service —Lawyers for Rep. Duncan D. Hunter, R-Alpine, said Thursday that the congressman will fully cooperate with a Department of Justice investigation into alleged campaign spending irregularities. The inquiry into Hunter was revealed by the ranking members of the House Ethics Committee. “Last year, Congressman Hunter became aware of expenditure issues confronting his campaign committee,” according to a statement issued by his lawyers, Elliot Berke and Gregory Vega. “Out of an abundance of caution, he took corrective action in consultation with the (Federal Election Commission)

and, ultimately, he and his wife personally repaid the campaign approximately $60,000,” the statement says. “Congressman Hunter intends to cooperate fully with the government on this investigation, and maintains that to the extent any mistakes were made they were strictly inadvertent and unintentional.” The five-term representative of San Diego's East County, Ramona, and a small portion of southern Riverside County is accused of spending campaign money on groceries, hotels in Italy and Arizona, and nail salon services, among other things, in violation of federal law and House rules.

According to multiple news reports, Justice Department officials are probing the expenditures and asked the House Ethics Committee to hold off on its own investigation. Duncan D. Hunter is a Marine Hunter veteran of the U.S. war in Iraq who succeeded his father, Duncan Hunter, as East County's representative in Congress. He was one of the first legislators to embrace the candidacy of Donald Trump and is one of the president's main backers on Capitol Hill.

County considers surplus property for affordable housing City News Service—San Diego County Board of Supervisors Tuesday voted to consider developing excess county property into affordable housing, as part of its overall, five-year plan for capital improvements. The unanimous vote to approve the Capital Improvement Needs Assessment program for fiscal years 2017-22 also cleared the way for county staff to explore ways of expanding the supervisors' chambers to make way for more public seating. “Our regional housing shortage is acute and it's going to require near-term and long-term action to address,” Supervisor Ron Roberts said. “The re-use of surplus county property could be a significant part of that

solution and I would like to see us give that every consideration.'' The county has a $10 billion portfolio in facilities and the Board of Supervisors receives updates on plans for the upkeep of infrastructure as well as future needs. “Managing capital facilities is a key strategy in the general management system and supports our strategic initiatives of healthy families, safe communities, sustainable environments, and operational excellence,” General Service Director Marko Medved told the board. “New facilities under construction or due to begin this summer will continue to deliver sustainable buildings that improve our service to customers and the quality of our workplace.”

Already funded and active projects around the county include the Imperial Beach library, a new crime lab for the sheriff's department, a combined library, park and sheriff's station in Borrego Springs, Alpine library, the North Inland Crisis facility in Escondido, and upgrades to several parks. Medved also presented three options for improving the board chambers as part of an overall plan to renovate the County Administration Center downtown. The first two options would keep the chambers at its current location on the third floor, while the third option would move the chamber to the northeast wing of the building on Pacific Highway and provide the largest increase in seating of all the options.

Ticket amnesty program ends April 3

Businesses profit from hungry wildflower seekers BY KAREN BRAINARD Travelers passing through town on their way to see the spectacular desert wildflower displays are benefiting Ramona food establishments. “We’ve definitely had an increase in business,” said Marlaine Mann at Boll Weevil. Sonja Steiner, owner of Ramona Café, said her business has increased about 35 percent this month. March 12, she said, “was a really, really busy day,” with people standing outside waiting for a table. “It’s been pretty busy the last two weeks every day,” she said Friday. Some hungry travelers stop by for breakfast, she said, but others want to get to the Anza-Borrego Desert before the crowds, so they stop for lunch or dinner on their way home. At D’Carlos, Keith Carnevale reported “all dining periods busier.” Business has increased 17 percent, he said. Carnevale said visitors commented that the traffic was bad. “Most loved the flowers but hated the crowds,” he said. Steiner said patrons expressed that they enjoyed the wildflower bloom and it was worth the trip. This year’s desert bloom, said to be the best in 20 years due to the winter rains, has attracted record crowds. Robert Bradley, co-owner of Ramona Family Naturals, said he has seen more visitors come in for lunches, salads, soups, and snacks. Since March 1, business has really increased, he

The restaurant owners have also met visitors from Temecula, San Ysidro, Riverside, and the Los Angeles area. Steiner said the increased business was really nice because March can be an unusual month

due to tax season. “This extra flower bloom from the rain brought in some extra business that I wasn’t expecting,” she said. Boll Weevil at 2548 state Route 67 on the west side of town even benefited from the heavy weekend traffic that could sometimes be stop-and-go. Mann said she had patrons who said they were hungry, stuck in the traffic, and decided to turn around and eat at the restaurant. The wildflower bloom is expected to decline this week, according to the Anza Borrego Desert Natural History Association. For updates on the bloom, see www.abdnha.org and click “flower updates.”

The last day to apply for one-time amnesty for unpaid pre-2013 traffic tickets and non-traffic infractions is Monday, April 3. The program started in October 2015 and was created as an incentive for people to resolve infraction-related delinquencies. Parking tickets and most misdemeanors, including driving under the influence and reckless driving, are not eligible. Individuals who owe restitution to a victim or have an outstanding warrant are also not eligible. Before contacting the court, visit www.courts.ca.gov/33230.htm. The site is also available through the San Diego Superior Court’s website at sdcourt.ca.gov. Individuals who think they may be eligible for the program should complete the Amnesty Program Participation Form, available on the court’s website, and bring it to the court location where the delinquent ticket is filed. Individuals must appear in person to request amnesty, unless they live out of the state or county.

OPINION

www.ramonasentinel.com

COMMENTARY

Stand up for everyone’s rights BY STEVE YANKE ebuttal to Susan Conrad: So, the people that started screaming “Not my representative” were part of the Indivisible Ramona group? I would say that there were four or five people, not sitting together, but spread out. They alone incited the meeting into near riots on several occasions — yelling “Liar” on trigger words like Trump, screaming “NOT MY REPRESENTATIVE” to silence the opposition in a way that nobody could hear the actual words being spoken. Let me be clear, those people were rude, obnoxious, people acting like rabid animals. They were the ones that made your uniting and kind words hollow and meaningless, INSIDE the town hall meeting. There is no excuse that can justify the actions of the Alinsky radicals for lack of a better term. Indeed the majority of your group reported back to you that they did not like the way the second speaker was interrupted. They were wrong. Turns out that Dr. Veltmeyer had a compelling story. He was not a used car salesman giving a sales pitch. He was an expert, and Congressman Hunter deferred some of the time so that an expert could accurately explain the rather complex issues of 0bamacare. But this is all hearsay, as I did not hear a word the guy was saying. Just as 0bama deferred the writing of 0bamacare to panels of experts like Jonathan Gruber, Congressman Hunter deferred a portion of his time to an expert within the health care industry, Dr. Veltmeyer. I would expect that he could have explained the congressman’s position better than Congressman Hunter could by himself. If it were not for the Alinksy radicals that incited the mayhem, we all could have learned more about Congressman Hunter’s position. I am all for civil debate and discourse. I am all for standing up for what we believe is right. With civility. We must be careful when emotions are running high not to trample on others’ rights. The majority of the Indivisible Ramona people seemed to cheer in support of others. I believe that was in the Indivisible training, to “support the group and reinforce the message.” They are good people, seeking answers to their questions. The Alinsky radicals were not seeking answers. They had a different agenda that was to cause mayhem. What I would like to say to the good people within the Indivisible Ramona group is we live in a time where just about everyone is being used. Fake news, half truths are designed to misinform. One cannot be too careful. Be careful whom you associate with, because you might just be mistaken for an animal (no offense intended). Think before you react to someone yelling out what might be considered a trigger word. Those people yelling “Liar” every time they hear the word Trump are not thinking. They are doing it for a reason, and you may not agree with that reason. Stand up for all humans’ rights, and let everyone have their civil words be heard. Steve Yanke is a Ramona resident.

OUR READERS WRITE Indivisible Ramona, a divisive group

carry on a mutual discourse, I may reconsider. Sandy Hurlburt Ramona

I have been reading with great interest these past few weeks the letters from and about this new group called “Indivisible Ramona.” I have to admit I don’t quite get the name. Having read their 26-page manifesto and personally witnessed their abhorrent behavior at the town hall meeting for Congressman Hunter, I’ve never encountered a more divisive group of rude, angry, obnoxious, hateful, and boorish people my entire life. They’ve lost all civility and public decency and portray a mob mentality. I was one of the volunteers who helped set up the venue on Friday evening, usher attendees to their seats, and afterward reset the Mainstage Theatre to its original format. As a thank you to those of us that did all the work, we met early Saturday morning for breakfast. I was saddened by the nefarious implication by Susan Conrad that we did something that was “illegal.” I would also like to take this opportunity to add that contrary to Ms. Conrad’s claim of reaching out to the Republican Women’s club in town, I personally, as its president, never heard from her. I would be curious to know who it was she claimed to have contacted to “meet with the goal of forming a mutual respect and an understanding.” If her group’s behavior represented at the town hall is her idea of “respect,” then I’m afraid I personally am not interested in any further engagement. When “they” temper their tantrums and can

Indivisible Ramona, part of a democracy in action Rebuttal to Dr. Gary B. Myers. Mr. Myers, I am more than happy to sit down with you and tell you all about Indivisible Ramona. Since I didn’t have permission from others for you to tape our meeting, it was inappropriate. When I asked you to “please” stop, you became very hostile in my opinion. “Hands in the cookie jar?” I’m not sure what you are getting at. Indivisible is non-partisan and open to anyone who wishes to challenge the Trump agenda when it violates civil liberties, endangers the planet, and threatens American values. And yes, the goal is to flip Congress in 2018 and the White House in 2020. That’s what the tea party did years ago. The U.S. Constitution allows us to gather and speak our minds. We call Congress, send emails, send tweets, attend rallies and town halls, and support each other. People are finally feeling like they can stand up and speak out. If residents in Ramona cannot voice their political opinion, then we live in a very un-American town. Please sir, don’t take a patriotic act and turn it into something wrong. That’s just not right. The Daily Signal, as you quote, is a conservative publication with mixed reviews regarding accuracy. I would love to make money in addition to my SEE LETTERS, A5

Baby boomers are called to action Local and vocal, several hundred involved and engaged citizens took to the streets, Saturday, March 25, to rally against Duncan Hunter's ethics violations. Large banners and signs were displayed on Via Rancho Parkway near the Westfield Mall entrance in Escondido. Participants chanted, "Duncan Hunter has to go," while passing drivers honked their horns in approval, giving us a thumbs up. I'm proud to say my Baby Boomer generation was well-represented at the rally, emerging from our pre-election apathy. Several of my Ramona friends were present, no longer willing to go silent into their golden years. We are being called to action, bringing to light injustices from local to federal levels. Having attended the Hunter town hall

in Ramona earlier this month, I felt dismissed by Hunter as one of his constituents. Questions on his ethics violations were glossed over by his saying they have been taken care of with corrective action or paid back. Many petitions citing Hunter's ethics violations were signed by concerned local citizens the day of the Ramona town hall and sent to the Department of Justice. We will no longer remain silent and allow abuse and misappropriation of funds by Hunter or any other representative. We are local, vocal, and unpaid. Janice Reich Ramona

Trump needs therapy for his and our sanity Donald Trump is in a deep mental crisis and is in urgent need of an emergency intervention. His outrageous claims that his Trump Tower telephones were bugged by direct order of former President Obama are indeed both ludicrous and insane. The textbook definition of schizophrenia with paranoia is defined as a psychosis where the mind cannot distinguish the difference between reality and one's wild imagination, which for him knows no bounds. Trump's psychotic episodes are

becoming increasingly common and ever more erratic and incredulous. Trump is becoming even more polarizing. His poor White House press secretary, Sean Spicer, on a daily basis has to clean up the mess Trump has left the day before. Luckily for Trump, Spicer is being enabled by an emasculated press corp. He occasionally looks like like a deer caught in the headlights as he tries to profusely apologize and rectify Trump's many wacky pronouncements, frequently delivered via twitter. This man holds the keys to Armageddon and could conceivably launch a global thermonuclear war. For this reason, this unbalanced president needs extensive therapy for HIS SANITY, AND especially for ours. Peter W. Quercia Ramona

Trump’s admiration source of confusion I am getting older and more easily confused. When I was very young, I joined the Army and fought in the Vietnam War. In fact, I was wounded in action and received a Purple Heart. I thought the purpose of that war was to stop the spread of Communism. Now we have a president who openly admires the most prominent leader of the Communist World. Very confusing. Jeremiah F. Reid Ramona

San Diego Concert Band to fill Ramona stage April 1 The San Diego Concert Band will fill the stage at the Charles R. Nunn Performing Arts Center with 75 musicians performing “Around the World in 90 minutes,” featuring music from many lands, on April 1. This will be the Ramona Concert Association’s fourth concert of the season. Founded in 1989, San Diego Concert Band is led by conductor Roy Anthony Jr., who in 2000 coordinated the opening ceremonies of the Summer Olympic Games in Australia. He was California’s 1995 Teacher of the Year, and in 1996 he received the Milken Family Foundation National Educator Award and the Valley Forge Freedom Foundation Educator Award. In February 2015, Anthony received the California Music Educators Association Aubrey Penman Retired

Music Educator Award, which honors continued influence in developing teachers. The full band has 100 members, chosen by audition, but will be reduced to 75 to accommodate the Ramona stage, which is part of Olive Peirce Middle School at 1521 Hanson Lane. “They continue to serve the County of San Diego and Southern California with band music of every spectrum and are a favorite of the Ramona Concert Association,” said association president Marlene Robershaw. The concert will begin at 7:30 p.m. Doors will open at 7. General admission at the door for non-concert members will be $15 for adults and $5 for students. For more information, call 760-789-7474.

Julian resident Joe Garcia will be the featured artist in Santa Ysabel Art Gallery this spring. The public will have the opportunity meet and talk with the internationally known artist at the opening reception for his exhibit, titled “Entwined,” on Saturday, April 8, from 4 to 7 p.m. Admission is free. “Entwined” refers to Garcia’s favorite subjects to paint: wildlife, habitat, and landscape. On exhibit from April 8 through June 4 will be his landscape and wildlife paintings in oil and watercolor. Garcia grew up on a small ranch in Escondido, where he developed an awareness of wildlife and habitat. He studied illustration at Art Center College of Design in Los Angeles and worked as an illustrator before deciding in 1983 to make fine art his primary focus. He built an aviary for various types of quail to

draw, paint, and photograph them. His fame as a painter of birds grew.

Spaghetti dinner tops $4,000 for Ramona Community PTSA Ramona Community Montessori School/Mountain Valley Academy PTSA staged a major event in the Charles R. Nunn Performing Arts Center Friday evening, raising just over $4,000. They called it a Spaghetti Dinner, but it was much more. Face painting, a bake sale, two areas of opportunity drawing baskets, and, of course, plates of spaghetti, were among attractions that filled the performing arts center at Olive Peirce Middle School. PTSA president Casey Lynch served as master of ceremonies throughout the three-hour event, and Principal Kathryn Gunderson, Ph.D., smiled as she talked to attendees and strolled from section to section. Each grade provided a large themed basket in one area, and another area contained baskets filled with donations from businesses and individuals. Proceeds from the event will pay for the variety of activities and programs the PTSA makes possible at the school, which offers two alternative education options to students: the Montessori program for grades kindergarten through 8 and Mountain Valley Academy, a home study/classroom program for kindergarten through grade 12. Both schools are on the Ramona Community Campus at 1010 Ramona St. —Maureen Robertson

Ramona Unified School District's Teacher of the Year Ashli Krainock stands with her students at Mt. Woodson Elementary School. FROM KRAINOCK, A1 classroom and every student schoolwide.” According to Krainock, her “ah ha” moment came in 2012 when she made the move from teaching third grade to kindergarten. The teacher said she found much of her time and energy was spent putting out “behavior fires,” and she wondered why some students could follow directions and others couldn’t. Krainock said she wanted solutions to help them interact successfully. “The compelling desire I felt led me on a journey in which I learned that there are physiological and environmental reasons for behaviors and that with the correct

interventions progress could occur,” she wrote. Krainock said the TK/K program she developed resulted from research, including that of lower brain connections, trainings she attended, and conversations with colleagues about students who are often seen as naughty, defiant, lazy, or not trying. A typical day in her classroom might look like a preschool setting to some, she said, with activities that appear non-academic. But activities such as coloring, building with Legos, scanning hidden pictures, and completing dot to dots prepare a child’s brain to make connections. “These critical connections will ultimately result in effortless reading, writing, and

Woodson Principal Robin Arend, and RUSD Assistant Superintendent Tony Newman. mathematical thinking,” she stated. The program focuses on factors affecting a child’s readiness to learn and succeed. One of those is social emotional literacy. For that, Krainock partnered with Vista Hill and SmartCare, which provides a therapist who gives lessons that teach school rules, recognizing feelings, problem solving and how to be a friend. “I understand the value of social/emotional literacy and realize the academic potential for any child relies heavily on their ability to be ready to learn,” she noted in her teaching philosophy. Arend said Krainock is also on the school’s Instructional Leader Teacher Team,

and the collaborations and lesson studies she leads at Mt. Woodson benefit the entire district. While in high school Krainock wanted to be the athletic trainer for the Detroit Pistons, but she said that changed during her senior year when she mentored at risk youth and decided to be a teacher. “She deserves this honor because of her positive impact on student and adult learning, student social and emotional well-being, and her inspiration to make learning accessible for every child,” stated Arend in her letter of recommendation. As district Teacher of the Year, Krainock will be considered for county and possible state honors.

Students and staff share a piece of cake celebrating Nuth. Ramona Unified School District Classified Employee of the Year Caylor Nuth presents Montecito High School construction teacher Nick Jordan with a boutonniere and corsage she made for him and his daughter to wear at the Father/Daughter Dance at James Dukes Elementary School.

Caylor Nuth holds an oversized check for $1,000 after learning she is the district’s Classified Employee of the Year. From left are: Superintendent Anne Staffieri, Ed.D., para-educator Pablo Linares, campus security Jackie Broussard, registrar Kathy Funk, Nuth, construction teacher Nick Jordan, Principal Dave Lohman, secretary Erin Kent, and Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources Tony Newman.

FROM NUTH, A1 and caring to young people.” Before moving to Montecito High as an aide in Jordan’s construction class, Nuth worked for 10 years at Ramona High supporting mainstreamed special education students in their classroom studies. As co-adviser for Ramona High’s Class of 2010, she said she had hours of fun, excitement and drama helping the students build floats, organize air bands and the Seniors on Campus Camp Out, and plan fundraisers for the prom at San Diego’s Hall of Champions. Montecito High Principal Dave

Lohman said Nuth’s can-do-attitude “is what separates her from the norm.” “Her tireless work and dedication is contagious,” he wrote in his recommendation letter on her behalf. “Challenges are met head-on with high expectations that ensure no stone is left unturned to fine solutions.” Nuth is much more than her job title, Montecito registrar Kathy Fund and Jordan said in their recommendation letter. Her connection with the students is one of her many strengths, they agreed.

“When asked, the students in their words said that she has been their number one supporter and biggest source of encouragement,” they said. “She is an amazing person with artistic creativity that inspires them to do better for themselves and others. She makes them feel they can do anything they put their mind to.” In addition to her work with the construction class and SkillsUSA students, Nuth once a week hosts an art class for a group of Ramona Elementary students, with Montecito High students as mentors, exposing both to art and the opportunity to learn valuable social skills.

“Her involvement in SkillsUSA, grade level construction projects at Hanson Elementary, Ramona High, Olive Peirce, and Ramona Elementary is extraordinary,” said Lohman. “Her partnership bringing art to Ramona Elementary students is phenomenal. Her tireless work with our students building confidence and value is to be commended.” Nuth volunteers on fundraising boards, with community outreach, and “looking to help anyone in need,” Funk and Jordan said. Learning that one Ramona High student needed unaffordable dental care, “Caylor hit the pavement and found a local dentist to do the work pro bono.” Trained in crisis counseling,

“Caylor has an innate ability to see need, to doing laundry for a family living in their car, offering rides, beautifying our campus, and cooking meals,” they continued. “She does all these things quietly and behind the scenes.” “It just seems right,” Nuth said of what motivates her to help others. “I always feel like it’s what people should do for each other.” She believes all people deserve their dignity, no matter their age, past experiences, or economic place. “What hope can one have if they feel they are not worth your time?” she asked. Nuth and her husband Matthew have three adult children who were educated in Ramona schools: Nicholas, Thomas, and Shelby. They also have three grandchildren ranging in age from 3 months to 5 years. As the district’s Classified Employee of the Year, Nuth will be considered for county and possible state honors.

Graf shoots hole-in-one BY KAREN BRAINARD Bulldog varsity golfer Justin Graf shot his first hole-in-one during Day 2 of the North County City Cup, a day that he decided to wear a special charm that he was told would bring him good luck. Was it coincidence? "I've had hole-in-ones in mini golf but regular golf is a whole different story. It's tough,” said Graf. He was one of four players from Justin Graf shows Ramona High’s boys the Saint Patrick charm that he wore golf team to for the first time on compete in the second round of the the day he shot his City Cup at Woods hole-in-one. Valley Golf Club in Valley Center on March 20. When he got to the 138-yard Hole No. 13, he strategized, taking the wind into account. "It was pretty windy and there's like a hazard in front of the green, so I just thought I'd club up a little bit. Took an 8 iron, just hit a nice shot, nice and smooth,” he said. Graf watched as the ball landed just to the right of the hole, about 15 feet past it, started spinning and then rolling back to the hole. “And it took a while to get back to the hole, and all of a sudden it disappears and I was like 'yeah!'” Graf said with a broad smile. Teammate Cameron Marshall was on Hole No. 14 and heard him yell, Graf added. "So that was kind of funny,” he said. By the time his round was over and he got back to the clubhouse, Graf said everyone in the tournament seemed to know about his hole-in-one. “It was pretty cool,” he said. For the first time, Graf had decided to wear a chain that day with a charm that had Saint

Bulldog Serop Matoian tees off during Ramona's win against Valley Center at San Vicente Golf Course March 23. Patrick on one side and Saint Brigid on the other side. "I got it from Father Pat at my church, Immaculate Heart of Mary, a few years ago,” he said. “Got from a retreat and they gave me this and said it would bring me good luck.” Graf said the charm has always been on his nightstand and he prays with it before going to bed. When he saw teammate Serop Matoian wearing a necklace with something that held meaning for him, Graf said he wanted to try doing the same. "He gave me a chain and the first day I wore it was Monday. Got the hole-in-one so it's kind of a coincidence,” said Graf. The Ramona High senior said he plans to wear it every day to school and to matches. Graf shot a 75 that day, noting he lost several balls in the round but saved the one from Hole 13. Other Bulldogs playing were Marshall, 80; David Hall, 86; and Easton

Powell, 94. The next day the Bulldogs played their first league match, capturing a victory against San Pasqual, 207-232, at The Vineyard at Escondido. In the par 35 nine-hole match, Marshall took medalist honors with a 39, followed by Graf with 40, Matoian with 41, Powell with 43, and Kyle Pack with 44. Coach Michael Gainey called it a great start to league play. “You can’t go undefeated if you don’t win the first,” he said. The team garnered a win in its second league match, held at home on the San Vicente Golf Course on March 23. In the 207-247 defeat against Valley Center, Graf and Marshall tied for medalist, each shooting a 39. Matoian posted a 40; Hall, 41; and Powell, 48. The Bulldogs will play Escondido at home on Thursday, March 30.

BY JOE NAIMAN Valley League Tennis play started with losses at San Pasqual and at home against Valley Center. San Pasqual defeated the Bulldogs, 14-4, while Valley Center won a 12-6 match. "San Pasqual's a stronger team overall," said Ramona coach Rose Darrough. "Valley Center ended up putting most of their strength in doubles and I still had my top two players in singles." Ramona's top singles player, junior Brandan Ruland, remained undefeated for the season by winning three sets against San Pasqual and three sets against the Jaguars. The other Ramona win against San Pasqual was by the doubles team of Cody Crenshaw and Mike Mazzola. Crenshaw and Mazzola won two sets against Valley Center opposition, with No. 2 singles player Chris Murguia accounting for the other Ramona victory that day. Ruland, Crenshaw, Mazzola, and Murguia are the only returning varsity players from Ramona's 2016 squad. Most of the other 2017 Bulldogs were on the junior varsity team last year. "They're really not at the level of varsity players in the league," Darrough said. Ramona won the 2015 Valley League championship. The Bulldogs finished third in 2016 when Fallbrook and Valley Center shared the league title. Fallbrook will travel to the Riviera Oaks courts for Thursday’s league match. Darrough noted that the match-ups during the first half of league play would affect her choices of player alignment during the second round as well as her recommendations for players to adapt to league opponents. "As we get into the second half of the season, I really am going to focus on if we can score better the next time around," she said.

Skatepark member teams up with construction teacher BY KAREN BRAINARD Justin Sturgeon, a Ramona Skatepark Champions board member, teamed up with Montecito High School teacher Nicholas Jordan to give Jordan’s construction students a chance to win skateboard merchandise. Jordan said all of his students skateboard. Junior Gustavo Mercado earned the big prize on March 24 — a skateboard donated by Globe Skateboards. Mercado was the only student at that point to complete the OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) 10, a 10-hour online construction course and test that is required for trade careers. “He’s the smartest kid I have. He is amazing,” Jordan said of Mercado. Jordan said he had a contest among his students to see who would finish first. To vie for the other donated merchandise that Sturgeon

brought, including skateboard wheels and T-shirts, Jordan held nail driving contests among his students. Seven of Jordan’s students will compete in the state SkillsUSA competition April 20-22 at the Town & Country Resort in San Diego. SkillsUSA is a partnership of students, teachers, and industry working to prepare a skilled workforce. They will have a chance to advance to the national competition to be held in Kentucky, said Jordan. To raise money for the competition, his students have been building Adirondack chairs, benches, and planter boxes. The Ramona Skatepark Champions are also trying to raise money — $70,000 — with the goal of developing a skatepark near Ramona Library. The proposed spot is off 12th Street near Main Street, in the area targeted for the Ramona Intergenerational Community Campus. For information see Ramona Skatepark on Facebook.

Prep Boys Volleyball

Team has 8-10 pre-league record BY JOE NAIMAN Ramona High School's boys volleyball team began Avocado East League play with an 8-10 overall season record. The Bulldogs, who will travel to Mission Hills for Thursday's league match, preceded league competition with a four-game loss March 22 at San Dieguito Academy and a three-set defeat March 24 at Scripps Ranch. "We have work to do. Hopefully we can start league on a higher note than where we're at," said Ramona coach Kyle Adelman.

A four-game win March 7 at Orange Glen began Ramona's season. The Bulldogs posted a 3-4 record in the March 10-11 Las Vegas Tournament. Ramona's first home match of the season was a four-set loss March 14 against Rancho Bernardo. The March 17-18 Beach Cities Invitational tournament included a 1-2 record in pool play, which placed the Bulldogs in the Silver Division for bracket play. Ramona reached the semifinals of the Silver Division before a loss to Mt. Carmel.

Due to illnesses of Rancho Bernardo players, the Broncos forfeited the third-place match. Ramona's March 18 matches began with a 30-28, 25-16 victory over San Dieguito Academy, so the March 22 contest was the second between the Bulldogs and Mustangs. "We knew what they were bringing. We knew the offense that they ran," Adelman said. Reacting to that offense was a focus of Ramona practices. "We did a pretty good

job of kind of displaying that," said Adelman. San Dieguito took a 25-23 victory in the first game. Ramona evened the match with a 25-21 triumph. The Mustangs then won 25-19 and 27-25 sets. "It was a close match the entire time. The teams were evenly matched," said Adelman. The scores of the Scripps Ranch victory were 25-22, 25-23, and 25-21. "This was an extremely odd match just from the get-go. We actually had 8-point leads at one point in all three of the sets," Adelman said. "We really could not find our footing in some of the situations where we needed to weather the storm."

Prep Swimming

Cougars outswim Bulldogs in league opener BY JOE NAIMAN Valley League swim competition for Ramona High School opened with a home meet against Escondido High School Friday, when the Cougar boys prevailed by a 99-87 score and the girls won by a 100-63 margin. Escondido is new to the Valley League, which also includes defending boys champion Fallbrook and 2016 first-place girls finisher Classical Academy. "It's a heavy-hitting league this year, so that's good," said Ramona coach Jolyn Yanez. If only one school in a dual meet has a diver, the diving is not included in the team points, although individual divers may be scored for CIF purposes. That included Ramona's girls in the March 17 home meet against Army-Navy Academy, an all-boys school. Shannon Reiling achieved a CIF meet qualifying score of 191.20 points on six dives, Jessica Gallegos had a consideration score of 150.55 points, and Kelsey Sherman achieved a consideration score of 149.65 points.

Escondido also does not have a female diver. Gallegos led Ramona's girls with 144.50 points March 24 and Reiling scored 134.15 points. Ramona's boys took first, second, and fifth against Escondido, with Cooper Smith accumulating a consideration score of 166.00 points, Dylan Webb totaling 137.00 points, and Matt Wallace scoring 98.15 on his second-ever varsity dive. "The boys did a nice job on the diving. They pulled in 11 points," Yanez said. Although Ramona outscored Escondido, 11-6, in diving, the Cougars took first and second place in the 200-yard freestyle relay to outscore Ramona 12-2 in that event. "The 200 freestyle relay was a killer," Yanez said. Including the diving, Ramona's boys took first place in eight of the 12 events against Escondido. Dawson Webster posted an automatic qualifying time of 50.19 seconds in winning the 100-yard freestyle and also won the 100-yard backstroke in 1:03.55.

Trevor White won the 200-yard freestyle in 2:00.53 and the 500-yard freestyle with a consideration time of 5:17.15. Jacob Powers had the winning time of 2:26.21 in the 200 individual medley.

On the girls side Schwegler posted a consideration time of 2:11.16 in the 200 freestyle and placed 45th while the 200 freestyle relay team of Mariah Campanella, Goldstein, Maya Magee, and Schwegler had a consideration time of 1:56.98.

FROM FIRE CHIEF, A1 "With our careers we didn't do a lot of vacationing," Karen noted. The fire chief said he hasn't been able to really enjoy a summer since he was 17 years old because of the fire season. And, being on call, he sometimes had to delay vacations. "April 7 is the start of the rest of my life," said the 51-year-old. Steve got his first taste of fire service as a volunteer at age 17. After graduating from high school he went into the Marine Corps and was stationed at Camp Pendleton. When he got out, he became a full-time volunteer for Riverside County Fire Department and was paid for emergency firefighting with the hourly rate dependent on qualifications. While a volunteer, he experienced his first wildfire. "It's an eye-opener. I remember it like it was today," he said. He, another volunteer, and a captain were protecting a log cabin in the mountains during a fire in Malibu around the mid-1980s, he said. "So we sat on this house all night long. The next day you could hear the roar...I mean it sounds like a freight train...the ground sometimes will shake...and then you see this big giant glow coming at you," Steve recalled. He remembers spot fires popping up all around them from the pine needles on the ground — defensible space was not a big deal then, he noted. Although there were fire crews from two other areas, they panicked and left, said Steve. Trying to describe what he saw, Steve likened it to a 100- to 200-foot tidal wave. "Just take the tidal wave away and put a ball of fire," he said. With embers coming down all around, Steve said the thought occurred, "how am I going to live through this," but then training took over. "You go into firefighting mode," explained Karen. Steve said he and the other two took hoses and guided the fire around the house and let it bypass. The cabin was saved and they survived. The husband and wife met in 1985, when Karen, who had taken an emergency medical technician class, was in the volunteer program

Jared Andrade, Firefighter/Paramedic Matt Rose, Firefighter Augustine Medina, Capt. Alex Davenport, FAE/Paramedic Matt Waters, FAE Dustin Depaola, Capt. John Sena, FAE/Paramedic Brandon Morgan, and Reserve Firefighter Trevor Powley with San Diego County Fire Authority. at the same station as Steve. She got her training by attending an academy and learning from the guys at the station, and said her years on a swim team gave her the upper body strength to lift and throw ladders. It was a time, however, when there weren't many female firefighters. That was especially evident when a year later Steve was offered a seasonal position with the Bureau of Land Management in Ely, Nev., and they married and moved to the former mining town. They soon learned California was more progressive than Nevada when it came to female firefighters. "Women were absolutely not even allowed," said Steve. Karen took a babysitting job while Steve sometimes found himself hundreds of miles out in the desert keeping 24-hour vigil at a fire incident scene to make sure it didn't reignite. That scene could be a lone tree. In 1987, the couple returned to California when Steve was hired as a seasonal firefighter by California Department of Forestry (CDF), now Cal Fire. When Karen was hired by CDF, the two often worked opposite shifts and only saw each other one day a week. "We saw each other on fires occasionally but a lot of people didn't know that we were married," said Karen. They continued to climb the fire service

ladder. Steve's resume includes fire inspector, fire prevention specialist, plan checker, fire apparatus engineer, captain, and fire chief. Their jobs took them to live in the Palm Springs area and in Northern California. Their son, Stephen, born in 1992, is named for Steve's great-great uncle, Stephen Collins Foster, composer of such songs as "Oh! Susanna" and "My Old Kentucky Home." In 2003, while the Cedar Fire was burning in San Diego County, Steve was on a strike team battling the Grand Prix fire in San Bernardino County. The Santa Ana winds would blow the fire into the mountains during the day, but in the evening the flames would blow back toward communities, he said, so they focused on structure protection. Steve remembers one night waiting for the fire to come off a hill. "So I'm laying down on the ground, trying to get a little bit of sleep ... It was pretty nippy out that night and then all of a sudden it was warm. It was like boom! I woke right up and said here it comes." He had two new seasonal firefighters with him and could tell they were scared. Steve told them something he had been told: "Don't worry, we're not going to die. Today is not the day. If we're going to die, I'll let you know." That calmed them down, he said, and when the fire came roaring down at the house with 50-to 60-mph winds, they managed to save it.

While Karen liked being a firefighter, she enjoyed being an inspector more. "Every day you learn something new," she said. She also became an investigator and would sometimes get called out in the middle of the night after a fire. With injuries and exposure to chemicals throughout their career, Karen, 53, said they didn't want to wait too long to retire. "I've had a lot of injuries in my career," Steve said. That includes bolts, rods, and screws in his lower back from when a roof collapsed on him, an injury that gave him a drop foot. "There's a point in your life where you know it's just time to walk away and enjoy life while you can, because you don't know when it's going to end," said Steve. "It's a career we choose," added Karen. "We couldn't have asked for a better career." The Fosters have lived in Ramona for 12 years but plan to move soon to Spokane Valley in Washington, where some of their friends reside and where there is no state income tax. Steve, originally from upstate New York, misses the seasons, said Karen. He is not likely to get bored in retirement, as he enjoys being a disc jockey, has a pilot's license, does woodworking, and is interested in 3D printing. Karen said she misses her work a bit, “but I’m looking forward to the next chapter in our life.”

RAMONA MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT SUMMARY OF PROPOSED ORDINANCE NO. 17-446

The General Counsel has prepared the following summary of Ordinance Number 17-446. Ordinance 17-446 amends Chapter 5.10 “Installation of Fire Services”; Chapter 5.15 “Automatic Fire Alarm Systems”; and Chapter 5.20 “Fire Protection and Ambulance/Paramedic Fees and Charges” of the Ramona Municipal Water District (“District”) Legislative Code. The revisions to Chapters 5.10 and 5.20 are made to reflect the District’s current cooperative contractual arrangement with the County of San Diego which authorizes the San Diego County Fire Authority to perform fire prevention services on behalf of the District. All processes and fees for fire prevention services will be those as set forth by the County and are therefore not needed in the District’s Legislative Code. Finally, the changes to Chapter 5.15 are made to delete certain sections of the District’s Legislative Code that are already adopted in the State Fire Code. A copy of the Ordinance is available for review in the District Office located at 105 Earlham Street, Ramona, CA 92065. This Ordinance was introduced and first read at the regularly scheduled Board meeting of March 14, 2017 and will thereafter be adopted at a regular meeting of the Board on April 11, 2017. DATED: March 23, 2017 RMWD Administrative Services Department 105 Earlham Street, Ramona, CA 92065 (760) 789-1330

TICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (714) 730-2727 or visit this Internet Web site www.servicelinkASAP.com , using the file number assigned to this case 16-17384.

Woman pleads guilty in July hit and run BY NEAL PUTNAM A Ramona woman has pleaded guilty to drunk driving with injury and hit and run in a July 27, 2016, incident in San Diego Country Estates. Jeannette Rae Kinikin, 48, will be sentenced Aug. 14 in El Cajon Superior Court. The judge will consider reducing the charges to misdemeanors in considering her participation in an alcohol treatment program, according to court records. The collision occurred on Ramona Oaks Road around 7 a.m. when Kinikin struck another car as it was making a left turn onto Daza Drive. Kinikin’s Dodge Caliber had major damage to the passenger side while the Mercedes Benz she struck had major front end damage.

Kinikin ran from the scene but was detained a short distance away by law enforcement. The 54-year-old driver of the Mercedes complained of head and neck pain. Kinikin has attended a program and complied with all of the requirements, according to court records. Judge Daniel Goldstein reviewed her release conditions on March 13. She remains free on her own recognizance and is wearing a Scram device that monitors any alcohol consumption. No alcohol has been detected and the device has not been tampered with in 210 days that she has worn it, court records show. She will likely be placed on probation. She has been ordered not to drive as part of her release conditions.

Short-term vacation rental complaint moves forward BY KAREN BRAINARD A judge has denied San Diego Country Estates Association’s request to dismiss a complaint filed by a homeowner earlier this year regarding a short-term vacation rental in the neighborhood. Tammy Rozelle and Sean Studley, who are plaintiffs in the complaint, live two doors away from the vacation rental owned by Cheryl Williams at 15115 La Plata Court. Their lawsuit, which also lists Williams as a defendant, says the vacation rental violates the Estates’ Covenants, Conditions, and Restrictions (CC&Rs) with excessive noise and disturbances, traffic, and harassment by some of the guests. The 4,195-square-foot house is listed on Vacation Rentals By Owner (VRBO) as having five bedrooms and sleeping 10 people. The complaint states that it has been rented to large groups of people for periods of three to 10 days. One of the claims in the complaint is that allowing Williams to operate a business out of the house is in violation of the CC&Rs. SDCEA board members have said, however, that the CC&Rs

do not have distinct rules addressing this issue as they were written 40 years ago when the Estates was built. It would take a vote of the residents to change the CC&Rs, said SDCEA General Manager Mario Trejo. “Here’s the challenge. It takes 75 percent positive vote from homeowners for the CC&Rs to be amended,” he said. “It would take a huge amount of money and effort.” Judge Ronald Frazier of San Diego Superior Court denied SDCEA’s motion on March 17 and required the association’s attorneys to file an answer to the complaint by March 27. Rozelle’s attorney, John Simpson of Simpson Delmore Greene LLP in San Diego, said Williams filed an answer and denied all allegations. She had taken the house off vacation rental sites for a period of time, he said, but recently re-listed it. The property is for sale, he added. “My understanding is at least two other residents of the cul de sac have complained, maybe three,” said Simpson. Trejo said there have not been any residents at recent homeowner association meetings complaining about

In late 2015 two residents objected to the short-term rental at a meeting, Trejo had previously reported. According to the suit, Williams started operating the vacation rental in summer 2015. Simpson said they are probably about a year away from a trial date, taking court proceedings into consideration. “We’re just going to press forward with my clients’ claims,” he said.
