Historic artwork finds home in Old Town

special piece of art was recently installed in town — a creation that ties together local history, old Ramona families and several organizations. Its unveiling at the Guy B. Woodward Museum was held on an overcast Saturday morning. Two large bas-relief sand cast concrete panels now grace the side of the Verlaque House on the museum grounds at 645 Main St. The late Charles R. Faust, world-renowned San Diego artist, created the panels. A new garden completes the display.

For more than 30 years, Faust was the architectural design director for the Zoological Society of San Diego. His innovative and unique designs for the buildings, enclosures and exhibits helped place both the San Diego Zoo and the Safari Park on the international radar. When not working on zoo-related projects, Faust was busy creating bas-relief sand casts, watercolors, oil paintings and drawings for both private and commercial clients across the country. His travels took him around the world, but his love of SEE ARTWORK, A6

BY KAREN BRAINARD Efforts to use an area of Wellfield Park for active recreational use have been scrapped due to the recent surfacing of a 2009 biological study that has caused the project to be cost-prohibitive. “This is essentially the termination of 3-1/2 years of exhaustive work and five three-ring binders full of dead trees,” said Jim Cooper, co-champion of the Active Recreational Park project, at the Ramona Community Planning Group’s June 2 meeting. Cooper, a member of the planning group and its Parks and Recreation Subcommittee, recommended the project be pulled from the priority list. The project was proposed as The Amphitheater Project by Art Thomsen in 2013, when the planning group put a call out for ideas to use Park Land Dedication Ordinance funds. Thomsen requested $27,000 of PLDO funds to install fencing, sod and seed for the park’s natural-designed amphitheater — a spot he said was used by the Ramona Kiwanis Club in the 1970s for music and special events. PLDO funds come from a fee that is paid when the county issues building permits in Ramona. The money goes toward active recreational use projects for the community. After the county’s initial review of the amphitheater project, Cooper said staff determined the cost would likely exceed $500,000 “with county emphasis on a near Hollywood Bowl-type project.” In spring 2014, the project was re-created and titled Wellfield Park Active Recreational Park with estimated costs of $157,000 to cover perimeter fencing to prevent access from motorized vehicles, a children’s playground, horseshoe pits and a nine-hole disk golf course, he said. The re-created project was under county review until fall SEE PARK, A2

District may be headed New lieutenant praises volunteers toward fiscal slowdown Sees smooth transition BY MAUREEN ROBERTSON School budgets the past several years have been rosy, but signs are this may be changing, David Ostermann, assistant superintendent of administrative services for the Ramona Unified district, said. “The big reason is the personal income tax in April,” he told trustees after the governor’s May budget update. “...That was lower by $1.2 billion (statewide) and that had a ripple effect.” The decrease doesn’t affect education now, since the governor had put about $2 billion more than required into SEE BUDGET, A2

2015, at which time a 2009 biological study was submitted, according to Cooper. He said “all of a sudden this study was received by one of the county offices. That threw a wrench in ... all the efforts of the Active Recreational Park.” In February county staff and biologists walked the site and confirmed the existence of Southern scrub oak, an endangered plant, and non-native grasses. Instead of needing a minor deviation to the major use permit held by the Ramona Municipal Water District, owner of the park, Cooper said the county told them in May that the project would need its own major use permit. That would lead to multiple studies and cause the cost to explode to over half-a-million dollars, he said. Planning group members unanimously agreed to remove the project from the PLDO priority list. According to the county, Parks and Recreation was not aware of the 2009 biological study until it was submitted by the Ramona water district in 2015. Jim Robinson, who was president of the water board in 2009, told the Sentinel that he remembers the county requiring the study for a Wellfield Park project, possibly a sports field, and would not release PLDO money without it.

Hartman and Williams worked out of the same office. “Our paths have crossed quite a bit and we’ve worked together several times,” said Hartman. Hartman said he and Williams both have intensive investigation backgrounds so he believes they are similar in their mindset and, because of that, believes the transition for him and for the Ramona station staff will be a smooth one. A south county resident, Hartman has worked at several stations and has experience in narcotics and gang enforcement. “When (County Supervisor) Dianne Jacob funded East County Regional Gang Task Force in 2006, I was one of the original members of the team,” he said. The task force was set up to combat violent crimes that such communities as

the state’s rainy day fund in January. But looking to the future, “we’re overdue for a recession, if you look at history,” said Ostermann. Public hearings to consider the district’s proposed 2016-17 budget and its state-required Local Control and Accountability Plan, which is tied to the budget, will be held during the trustees’ June 16 meeting at 7 p.m. in Wilson Administrative Center, 720 Ninth St. Copies of both are online at www.ramonausd.net. Trustees are expected to vote on both during

a special meeting on Tuesday, June 28. The proposed budget shows $55.8 million in projected revenue and $56 million in projected expenditures. The multi-year projection shows ending balances dropping from $6.1 million in 2016-17 to $28,298 in 2018-19. Trustee John Rajcic called employee retirement and declining enrollment “the elephant in the room.” “Since we know that our costs are going up, we need to make sure that we’re not automatically backfilling when an employee moves from a position,” said trustee Bob Stoody. “...We need to look and see what the

real tasks are, what the chores are, and how they can be filled in a more creative way possibly than the way we are doing it.” Attrition is the least painful way to reduce expenditures, said Rajcic. “Fiscal solvency is a major concern of this board,” he said. State-required increases to employee retirement accounts “are a serious financial threat to all school districts in the state,” Ostermann states in his June 16 report to trustees. Among cost increases Ostermann anticipates for the fiscal year that starts on July 1 are: Health benefits, $585,000;

season,” said Hartman, adding that the region received enough rain for weeds to grow, providing fuel for fires. Hartman is also meeting with community organizations, creating partnerships, plans to continue his predecessors’ Citizens Advisory Group, and wants to keep the public informed. Getting information out to the community often helps solve crimes, he said. One way to do that, he said, is to utilize Nixle, the sheriff’s department web-based community notification service. Residents can sign up for it at www.nixle.com. The 52-year-old lieutenant, who is married with two adult children, said, “I’m going to do whatever I can to make sure that the sheriff’s department does what we need to do to make sure this community stays safe and prosperous, and to be a good resource for the community, and to be transparent as possible.”

Employee Step/Column increases for years worked and additional education, $520,000; and CalSTRS (California State Teachers Retirement System), $410,000. Declining enrollment compounds the problem, he noted. “I feel like we’re getting hit from all sides,” said trustee Rodger Dohm, recommending caution in spending one-time money the district receives. “We can throw the one-time dollars at the problem, but that just fixes it for one year. It doesn’t really solve the problem...We’re never really solving our overspending problem. Not that we created the problem.”

Spring Valley, El Cajon, La Mesa and Imperial Beach were experiencing, he explained. After Hartman was promoted to sergeant, he worked at the Imperial Beach station, which was followed by 4-1/2 years on East County gangs again. Two years ago he was promoted to lieutenant and since then this is his third assignment, having handled San Marcos patrol, then assigned to Rancho San Diego and now Ramona. Rancho San Diego, he explained, is a command station overseeing many communities and has a captain in charge. Working in an area that has the potential for wildfires is a first for Hartman, so to be prepared he has been meeting with the Ramona Fire Department/Cal Fire and other stakeholders and emergency responders.

Teens mentor younger students

BY MAUREEN ROBERTSON wo benches — one 7 feet and one 8 feet long — sit in the courtyard outside Cory Gilbreth’s fifth-grade classroom at Hanson Elementary School. They are the result of what Hanson Principal Chris Gunnett calls “a wonderful journey between two schools.” Before he introduced three Hanson students at a recent meeting of Ramona Unified trustees, Gunnett said that the new state standards present opportunities to put ideas or problems to work in “real-world experiences.” “This year our fifth-grade class had a problem,” he said. “They needed a place to sit and read.” Discussions of how to solve the problem led to an idea. Once they had the idea, they had to “find resources, collaborate and then get together with others on how they’re going to make that dream be realized,” said Gunnett. With Home Depot Carmel Mountain providing all of the supplies and Montecito High School construction students working with and teaching them, the fifth-graders finished what they named their “Reading Bench Project.” Fifth-grader Sophia Brindley admitted that, while she was excited about the project, she also was nervous, because she had never “built anything so large and important.” “I was even more nervous when I saw the Montecito high schoolers — the age and height difference,” she said. “But as soon as we started working, my nervousness disappeared.” Classmate Thomas Leech agreed. “We learned how to work together as a team, no matter our age difference,” he said. Among other things, the older students showed the fifth-graders how to use a screw gun, a square and a hot pen and how to sand and stain. Fifth-grader Charles Hall said he particularly enjoyed learning to stain the benches, so students are “able to sit on it and not have splinters.” The learning wasn’t all one-sided.

MAUREEN ROBERTSON

Hanson Elementary School Principal Chris Gunnett introduces students Charles Hall, Thomas Leech and Sophia Brindley to school trustees as Montecito High Principal Dave Lohman and Hanson Elementary teacher Cory Gilbreth listen. Describing himself as a fast-paced person, construction student Mike Henderson said he learned to slow down, get more involved and talk more. “It helped me out a lot,” he said. Construction student Cesar Mercado agreed. “It was a great experience working with the kids, because we got to teach them something that we learned,” he said, thanking Gunnett and Gilbreth for the opportunity. Directing his comments to the elementary students, Montecito High construction teacher Nick Jordan said he enjoyed working with them and appreciated their attitude and work ethic. “Keep that up growing up,” he said. “You’re going to need that. Everywhere you go you’re going to need that.” In addition to making the two benches, the Hanson students built planter boxes on the high school campus, Montecito Principal Dave Lohman said. “We look forward to that collaboration in the future,” he said. The presentation to the school board ended with a slide show featuring photographs taken by fifth-graders on the project’s Historian Team. “Reading Bench Project: An idea is born — 48 students, two schools, one dream realized,” the slide show began.

OUR READERS WRITE Help complete Main Hall Dear Friends, This is Honorary Mayor Sharon Davis stopping by to say “hello” and to bring you up to date on Ramona Town Hall, and ask for a favor. As many of you know Ramona Town Hall is up and running nicely now with the East and West Wings being rented out often. Now it’s on to the Main Hall to complete the historical restoration and return the Hall back to you, the citizens of Ramona. Town Hall has undertaken what may very well be the largest Opportunity Drawing Fundraiser ever in the region. Win your choice of a sedan, SUV or truck from Perry Ford of Poway or $25,000 cash. Drawing to be July 4th of this year with only 2,000 tickets printed. These are very good odds. Tickets are only $50 each and can be purchased at the Antique Fair across from Town Hall or on line at www.ramonatownhall.com. You can also call 760-789-0574 or 760-788-7215. For more detailed information, please go to our website. Town Hall can only achieve its goals with the assistance of generous donations from members of our community. So, I write to ask you to help us help you. We’re on track and we’re keeping our promise. We just need to light our current Opportunity Drawing Fire to help us move in to the final daunting phase of our restoration plans which require about $2 million. I feel the continuing presence of historic properties in Ramona immeasurably enhances the quality of our lives. They help to establish our sense of place and to define the very character of our community. To meet this challenge, please let us hear from you. Sharon Davis Ramona honorary mayor

Garden Club thanks The Ramona Garden Club would like to thank the community of Ramona for helping make our biggest fundraiser, the Garden Tour and Plant Sale held in April, a great success. We appreciate the following businesses: Packards Coffee and Ramona Country Yarn Store for selling pre-sale tickets. We also appreciate the homeowners who opened up their beautiful gardens for the community to enjoy and get some ideas for their own homes. A big thanks to the vendors who came and sold garden-related items at the plant sale. And hats off for all the patrons who braved the weather that day to visit our plant sale, and tour the homes. With the money we raised we were able to give three graduating seniors a $1,000 scholarship each. These seniors will be entering a horticulture degree program. We also have grant money to help the community with any type of gardening project you may have. Applications are on our website, www.RamonaGardenClub.com. Again, a huge thank you! Tama Wray and Sandi Clark Co-presidents Ramona Garden Club

Offended Guys and Gals, I completed my career in the United States Navy and was ordered to retire. It hurts to be told to go home from a career you love. I can tell you every hostile fire zone I was assigned to, Desert Storm being the last. I cannot tell you all of the SEE LETTERS, A6

To the Ramona community..... Editor’s note: This is Ramona Unified School District Superintendent Dr. Robert Graeff’s farewell letter to the community. His retirement will take effect July 1. His last day on the job will be June 30. In this brief, final message to the entire Ramona community, please let me say that it has been an extraordinary pleasure serving you in a leadership capacity over the past 15 years. As your Superintendent since 2008 (and school district Cabinet Officer since 2001), we have come through a lot together, achieving amazing accomplishments for Ramona's children! For a medium-sized, semi-rural school district, we have routinely surprised the county with stellar results in statewide testing, graduation rates, participation in Advanced Placement exams, performance on the High School Exit Exam, and in so many more measures of student academic achievement. Our schools have earned more than their fair share of Distinguished School and Gold Ribbon awards, along with impressive recognition for Title I, Schools to Watch, and Model Continuation programs. And while we don't advertise this fact very often, we are the only district in all of San Diego and Imperial counties to have won at least one Administrator of the Year Award every year since 2001! More than awards and recognition, however, are those many special moments which I have collected over the years, observing so many outstanding classroom lessons by some of the best teachers and classified staff in all of San Diego County. I have been so blessed to witness thousands of unforgettable moments from Pre-K through Grade 12, teachers working with students in writing, math, music, science, and in virtually every co-curricular area of athletics, band, dance, FFA, auto, art, student government, construction, and more. I can close my eyes and instantly see high-fives, hugs, cheers, smiling faces, and crowded

stadiums, with students being nurtured, protected, fed, transported, counseled, healed, and praised. These "golden moments" in my mind's eye will be forever carried with me from my 15 years in our local Ramona schools. After June, my personal plans include assisting my college freshman daughter get situated in the Honors College at Baylor University, supporting my sophomore son in his last two years at San Pasqual High School, enjoying far more personal time with my wife as she continues working at Westview High School, and taking on a professorship at Point Loma Nazarene University. If there is anything that community members choose to remember about my personal service in Ramona, I am hoping it is one of the lessons I shared with our entire district workforce during my first Convocation as Superintendent in 2008. "For most students, Fifth Grade comes around only once." Regardless of the resources, the politics, labor relationships, bond elections, school board pressures, and on and on, the students in our classrooms need the very best that our staff has to offer — right now, this year, this day, this moment. There are no do-overs for students. There are no excuses for staff. Each youngster deserves our very best, every day in every way. It is my most fervent hope that this spirit of providing our very best service to every student on every day continues to be the hallmark of our Ramona schools long after I'm gone. After 40 years of service to the students of San Diego, Vista, and Ramona, it has been quite an amazing journey. Here's hoping that you receive as much joy and satisfaction as I have in your respective careers, home lives, and personal passions. Truly, there is no finer contribution to humankind than supporting, nurturing, and educating children. Bob Graeff, superintendent Ramona Unified School District

FROM LETTERS, A4 numerous humanitarian actions I took part in during my career. They significantly outnumber the hostile fire zones and were very rewarding emotionally. As a member of numerous veterans support and veterans associations I get e-mails and mail all the time asking for contributions. The last three days struck a bad cord. At Petco Park on Saturday, June 4, a Girl Scout troop presented colors. THEY LOWERED THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA TO ALL OTHER FLAGS PRESENT. Adult oversight should have corrected it. I AM OFFENDED. I have not seen this event mentioned on the local or national news. Other recent errors during the presentation of the national anthem have attracted national attention. I am offended by its omission. The video presentation of the national anthem during the flag presentation remained on the first line for the entire national anthem. I am offended. I have not seen this event mentioned on the local or national news. I am offended by its omission. Today I received an e-mail requesting my presence and S T A T E

donation at a non-existent holiday. We are approaching the INDEPENDENCE DAY holiday. It is not the fourth of July holiday. It is INDEPENDENCE DAY. To call it anything else offends me. As we progress, many have moved from Merry Christmas to Happy Holidays. How soon before that becomes “Happy December 25th?” I am offended. This fall we will find Veteran’s Day and Veterans’ Day. The holiday is Veterans Day. It is not possessive by veterans in any manner or presentation. To change it offends me. This is the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag, the Banner, of the United States of America. "I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all." There is no pause, no comma after “one nation.” When you put it there you are changing the Pledge and I am offended. American by continent of birth, U.S. citizen by country of birth.

FROM ARTWORK, A1 animals and western history — and the fact that his brother, Bill, lived here — often brought him to Ramona. The panels, encased in a stainless steel frame, sit side by side, each weighing more than 100 pounds. The frame, done to exacting dimensions by resident Mischa Dobrotin, took more than three years to complete and weighs nearly 300 pounds. Dobrotin is vice president of the Ramona Pioneer Historical Society, which owns and operates the museum. The panels show an outward facing window view. The walls are covered in blacksmith tools — nippers, tongs, horseshoes, brands from a branding iron and more. An anvil features prominently. The scene includes an old horse-drawn freight wagon and a pair of oxen. A two-story Victorian house and large barn dominate a pasture. Museum officials know that the panels were created as part of a series made for a bank in San Diego, although the exact year they were made is unknown. What seems obvious is that Ramona provided Faust with plenty of inspiration. His brother, a past president of the Ramona Pioneer Historical Society, had a freight wagon sitting in his pasture identical to the one in the panels. A real-life freight wagon also sits at the museum. The tools depicted in the panels are nearly identical to those hanging in the museum’s blacksmith shop. Overall, the art looks as though it was custom made for the museum, and it was certainly destined to return home to Ramona. The Ramona Garden Club donated the artwork to the museum. The club received the panels from former member Cheryl Nemec, who originally purchased them for $250 from a thrift shop in Poway. “I knew who the artist was and totally loved those panels,” said Nemec. “But I just couldn’t take them with me when I moved from Ramona to Arizona.” Garden Club members, recognizing that the pieces might have historical value, contacted Judy Nachazel, historical society president. It was determined that the art should remain in Ramona and the museum seemed the perfect spot to display it. Along with the art, the Garden Club donated

Meanwhile, as the frame was being crafted, friends of the late Cynthia Kunkel inquired about the possibility of a memorial garden on museum grounds. Kunkel was a museum member much loved by those who knew and worked with her. The idea of a memorial garden surrounding the new artwork seemed appropriate, and her friends donated $500 toward the project. Although it took much longer than anyone had anticipated, once the artwork was in place, work on the rock garden commenced quickly, and a second garden area has also been started. “The importance of this piece of artwork now staying in Ramona, especially when there are so many ties both in the picture, in the history and even in the fact that Faust still has relatives living in the area, cannot be overstated,” said Nachazel. “We are so pleased to be able to display it here for everyone in town to enjoy.” The original garden is expected to be completed in September, when the memorial plaque for Kunkel should be finished and installed, as well as a plaque for the artwork. The museum is seeking donations for the remainder of the garden and for numerous other projects, and volunteers are always needed. For more information, contact the museum at 760-789-7644.

Eco-leaders receive national attention, look to the future BY ALEXIS NAGEM Ramona High School teacher Gloria Quinn and her student eco-leaders recently received a President’s Environmental Youth Award for their work recycling food scraps from each school in the district. The eco-leaders had applied to be a part of the national Food Recovery Challenge, submitting for recognition the food-waste reduction and composting program they began on campus. Every day the eco-leaders gather the food scraps. They weigh the food collected and deposit it into the 600-gallon Earth Tub composting system. They then record the data, check the Earth Tub’s temperature and operate the unit. “They’re here every day and they’re enthusiastically doing this every day,” Quinn said before school ended for the year. “Cloudy, sprinkling, they’re out there doing this.” The compost produced is then used in the class garden or sold. It is a many-tiered effort, Quinn noted, one that could not run without the collaboration of multiple people, such as the school’s kitchen workers, the drivers who transport the compost and the

Teacher Gloria Quinn and her eco-leaders display their President’s Environmental Youth Award in front of their composting site. student eco-leaders. “They’re all the unsung heroes of this,” said Quinn. “If anybody there stops, it all stops. It’s a job that happens every day because people know that they are doing something for the greater good.” The eco-leaders have kept 11 tons worth of food out of the landfill and reduced their environmental footprint in such a way that it is as though they’ve kept four vehicles off the road for a year. A

conservative estimate of cost benefit to the school district is at least $18,000, Quinn noted. The class also received certification allowing them to use their crops as a culinary garden. Because of this, students are allowed to take their choice of the harvest home to make meals and learn valuable culinary skills. Encouraged by the recognitions they’ve received, Quinn and the eco-leaders are generating plans to

expand their efforts. They hope to some day feed the entire Ramona High student body their produce, but they will need more work space to do so. The students think a new greenhouse would be just the thing to help. The eco-leaders put together a math project to calculate how well the addition of a greenhouse would advance their production. In this project, they measured the necessary space, determined the

square footage and calculated the cost of the operation. They also determined how many tables and how many trays they would need. “They even did a whole presentation on this as if this was their proposed plan and then did a whole write-up on the whole process,” said Quinn. Along with building a new greenhouse, the eco-leaders influence would be expanded with the installment of the new kitchen they found on craigslist at no cost to the school. All it the kitchen needs is someone to help finish the granite. Not only has the work of the eco-leaders helped better the environment, but it has also helped them meet the Common Core state standards as well as all 12 elements in the state’s standards for Career Ready Practice. “I love being able to take what our standards are because they really do apply to real life lessons and real life scenarios that give us meaning, that give us purpose, that connect us with our community,” Quinn said. “When you can join those together, that’s when it has that meaning and that’s what we’re doing in here with all of these things and they are making a difference not just in the community but in the world.”

Barnett celebrates new school playground BY KAREN BRAINARD Barnett Elementary School celebrated its long-awaited new playground — a project spearheaded by parent Denise Drum — with a ribbon-cutting and ice cream social. Schoolchildren tried out the new playground structure with its innovative components for climbing, swinging and sliding three days before the social, however, as soon as Barnett Principal Linda Marthis and Drum performed the official ribbon-cutting on June 3, youngsters and parents streamed toward the school’s latest amenity. It took just over four years and lots of fundraising for the playground to become a reality, according to Drum and Marthis. The approximately $136,000 project in the lower level playground replaced one that was 24 years old, did not meet current safety regulations, and was outdated, according to Drum. “And it was not really something that was engaging to the children,” she said. Fundraising included a tile painting project, with tiles purchased by Barnett families, Ramona Unified School District staff and the community, that garnered $3,800. Also contributing was the Palomar Health Community Action Council with a $1,000 grant, viewing playground activities as a way to reduce obesity in youths. In November 2013, Ramona Community Planning Group approved the project for its Park Lands Dedication Ordinance priority list, earmarking $92,000 of PLDO funds for it.

PHOTOS BY KAREN BRAINARD

Barnett Elementary Principal Linda Marthis and parent Denise Drum get ready to remove the ribbon for the official opening of the new playground. The county Board of Supervisors released those funds in March. Because the playground is open as a recreational park to the community when school is not in session, it could qualify for PLDO funds, explained Drum. The balance was funded by the Ramona school district. A lot of thought went into the layout of the playground, designed by GameTime and manufactured by Great Western Parks and Recreation. Drum said a panel was added that offers five components geared for special education students. The playground, which sits on a new Poured in Place Rubber surface, was designed so children will not bottleneck in one area and can move from one element to

another. The school mom is not done yet, however. Drum said she would like to add benches and a shade structure. “So I’m looking for grant opportunities and sponsorships,” she said. For Drum, being involved in the project was a natural progression. For years, she managed charitable giving for a department store. Now, she finds it fun to be on the other side. “It was just a natural thing to be writing grants,” she said. After putting so many years and so much work into the new playground, Drum said when she saw it finally open for use, “I sat there and cried, watching so many kids playing on it.”

Tamra Jewel Reyes and Lilyen Reynolds enjoy swinging around at the new playground.

Buffalo Soldiers re-enactor to share story Ralph Finisterre will share the story of the historic Buffalo Soldiers at the Ramona Pioneer Historical Society potluck dinner on Tuesday, June 21. The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Barnett Barn on the grounds of the Guy B. Woodward Museum, 645 Main St. The public is invited. Those attending are asked to bring a main dish, salad or dessert to serve eight. Finisterre, a Civil War era re-enactor, will be in full regalia, explaining the soldiers' living conditions, clothing, equipment and duties. Formed at Fort

Leavenworth, Kansas, in 1866, the Buffalo Soldiers had a colorful and meritorious career with the U.S. Army that culminated in service during World Wars I and II. At various times they escorted both the U.S. mail and settler groups heading West in the 1880s. Officially designated as the 10th Regiment, Company H, U.S. Calvary, the group was stationed at Campo's historic Camp Lockett in the 1940s. For more information, call the museum at 760-789-7644.

1 dies, 4 injured in Santa Ysabel rollover crash A father died and two other adults and two Boy Scouts were hospitalized Saturday morning after a single-vehicle rollover crash near Lake Henshaw in Santa Ysabel, according to authorities. Investigators were still trying to determine what caused the vehicle to overturn at 9:15 a.m. on state Route 79, south of state Route 76, according to the California Highway Patrol. One adult was pronounced dead at the scene, while Book signing Saturday Ramona author Joyce T. Strand will introduce her latest novel, “The Reporter’s Story,” at Unicorn Books and Gifts, 845 Main St., on June 18 from 3 to 5 p.m. Two of Strand’s books have been the focus of local book clubs, and her last novel sold out at the Ramona Art and Wine Festival. “The Reporter’s Story” is a historical mystery set in 1912 San Francisco and features a female reporter determined to become a respected front-page reporter. The more she pursues a burglary that the victim denies happening, the more she sees it as a major story involving murder, intrigue and smuggling.

two adults and two children were taken to hospitals by helicopter and ambulance, according to Cal Fire Capt. Kendal Bortisser. Some of the occupants had to be extricated from the vehicle by firefighters before being transported. The children were reported to be 13 years old. There was also a report of an injured dog in the wreckage, according to the CHP website that logs traffic crash information. Traffic in the area came to a standstill so a Mercy Air ambulance could land on the highway, according to the CHP. Karl Shelton, director of support services for the Boy Scouts San Diego-Imperial Council, issued a statement saying, "The San Diego-Imperial Council is sad to report that a personal vehicle carrying two of our Scouts and three parents was involved in a vehicle accident, resulting in injury to all involved and one adult fatality. We have very few details at this time. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims, the families, and their fellow Scout troop members, and we are doing everything we can to support our Scouting family during this difficult time."

Deputies arrest 4 for mail theft Ramona man SHERIFF’S REPORTS

Break up party with minors Deputies from the sheriff’s Ramona station arrested four people in connection with mail theft after they were observed emptying mailboxes near the 15000 block of Rainbird Road in San Diego County Estates. According to the report, around 7 p.m. June 2 a witness saw a man approach a bank of 50-plus mailboxes and empty the contents into a plastic shopping basket. The suspect was then seen leaving in a dark-colored Volvo sedan, heading into the four corners area, said the report. After receiving the call, deputies waited on Rainbird Road, knowing the suspects had no other way out, and stopped the Volvo when it passed. When they approached the vehicle, occupied by two male and two female adults, they saw a plastic shopping basket full of mail in plain view, reported the sheriff’s station. Deputies also found the Volvo was a reported stolen vehicle from the City of San Diego. Arrested on suspicion of mail theft, criminal conspiracy and possession of stolen property were: Cesar Woods, 44; Shawna Fields, 40; Deshon Jones, 31; and Dainette Woods, 22. All were San Diego residents except Jones, who was listed as homeless, stated the report. They were

booked into custody at the Vista Detention Facility. Mail theft is a constant problem in rural areas, especially where there are rows of mailboxes, said Lt. Jerry Hartman of the sheriff’s Ramona station. Thefts usually occur at night with people looking for large amounts of mail, trying to find checks or credit card information, he said. Hartman said residents should not put outgoing bills with credit card information or checks in their mailbox, but take them directly to a post office. “I know it’s not convenient, but it will limit your potential for being a victim. And pick up your mail every day,” he said. In another action, deputies rounded up about 20 youths but said many fled when they responded to a large party with minors around 10:15 Saturday night in the 16800 block of Daza Drive. Deputies were unable to locate the youth who was hosting the party, said Sgt. Robert Samuels. The mother of that youth was out of town, he said. Deputies found alcohol in the house and released the youths who were there to their parents, reported the sergeant. The case, a violation of the county’s Social Host Ordinance, is under investigation. According to Samuels, a

party with minors had been held at the house the week before with the mother home, and she and her child were cited. Among other reports at the station: Sunday, June 12 • Battery on person, 24100 block of San Vicente Road. • Female, 37, arrested, 16400 block Wikiup Road, drunk in public. Saturday, June 11 • Male, 47, arrested, Aqua Lane, drunk in public. • Male, 25, and female, 23, arrested, Chuck Wagon and San Vicente roads, possess narcotic controlled substance and possess controlled substance. Female also arrested for use/under influence of controlled substance. Friday, June 10 • Female, 39, arrested, 100 block North 14th Street, vandalism $400 or less. • Male, 25, arrested, 400 block 14th Street, drunk in public. • Male, 31, arrested, 300 block Elm Street, use/under influence of controlled substance. Wednesday, June 8 • Male, 35, arrested, 2500 block Kelly Avenue, residential burglary and vehicle theft, two shotguns and two pistols, each worth $500, $100 air gun, and passenger van. Suspect returned items.

pleads guilty to molestation BY NEAL PUTNAM A Ramona man has pleaded guilty to two counts of continuous sexual abuse of two girls and will face an expected prison term of 24 years, a prosecutor said. Daniel Wayne Hogan, 40, pleaded guilty to the two most serious charges among the 45-count complaint before El Cajon Superior Court Judge Dan Lamborn. Deputy District Attorney Kerry Conway said Hogan agreed to accept a stipulated term of 24 years when he is sentenced on July 21. There was no preliminary hearing in which the girls had to testify. “I’m glad they didn’t have to testify. I’m very happy for them,” said Conway. Conway said the continuous sexual abuse charges reflected his conduct over years. The first count alleged misconduct from 2004-06. Other charges reflected sexual molestation from 2007-11. On Saturday, his attorney, Kerry Armstrong, issued this statement: “Mr. Hogan pled guilty because he is extremely remorseful for his actions and because he wanted to spare the victims from having to testify. He sincerely hopes that they can begin to heal and that they live happy and successful lives.” The remaining charges will be dismissed. Had Hogan gone to trial on all charges and been convicted, he would have faced up to 400 years in prison. He was arrested Jan. 8 by the Fugitive Task Force and remains in the George Bailey Detention Facility on $2 million bail.

During the section meet, Anderson had the longest overall discus throw with a distance of 170-11. "He competed very well the week before," Edwards said. Anderson's first trip to the state meet last year resulted in a 17th-place distance of 158-9. This year Anderson fouled on his first attempt, obtained a scored distance on his second throw, and improved his distance to 161-9 on his third and final throw. "He was disappointed, but he's excited to start his throwing career at Cal State Fullerton," Edwards said. Anderson would have needed a distance of 173 feet to have been one of the top 12 throwers who advanced to the finals. "He's done that. Didn't throw that on Friday," Edwards said. Anderson set the school record of 185-11 during Ramona's March 10 non-league dual meet at home against Mission Hills. "He had a great year," Edwards said. The section meet girls long jump competition included Stallman's distance of 18-10, which not only took first place overall but also broke her school record.

2015

BY JOE NAIMAN The California Interscholastic Federation state track and field meet at Buchanan High School in Clovis included a 10th-place performance by Ramona High School senior Holly Stallman in the girls long jump, 12th place for Stallman in the girls 100-meter dash, and 18th place for Ramona senior Connor Anderson in the boys shot put. Both graduated with the Class of 2016 on June 8. Stallman also broke her own school record in the long jump during the June 3 preliminaries with a distance of 18 feet 10 1/4 inches. The top 12 performances in each distance race or field event during the preliminaries qualified an athlete for the June 4 finals while the top nine times in the shorter races were worth lanes in the finals. Stallman ran the 100 dash in 12.14 seconds to give her 12th place in the preliminaries. "She did really well," said head coach Sherri Edwards. Edwards noted that the state meet was the first for Stallman and that a first state meet often makes an athlete nervous. The top three performances in each event at the San Diego Section finals May 28 qualified athletes for the state meet. Stallman's time in the section finals was 11.94, which broke her own school record while placing third overall and first among runners from Division II schools.

Mary Jo Lollis and Jeanne Rohmann are the low net winners in the San Vicente Women’s Golf Association Pow Wow, the year’s premier member/guest tournament, with a two-day score of 132 Stableford points. Guests came from across the county, state and country, including Nevada, Texas, Wyoming, Minnesota and Vermont. The Quest for the Eagle-themed tournament opened with the traditional morning practice round, afternoon derby and evening cocktail party. The cool weather at the 8 a.m. shotgun warmed to more comfortable playing temperatures as play progressed. The team of Sally Movido and Ann Neumeister won the Lucy Hechter Award given to the twosome with the highest Stableford points. The association has staged the Pow Wow at the San Vicente Resort and Golf Course every year

Kevin grew up in Ramona, graduating from Ramona High School in 2002. He was a competitive trombone player in the high school’s marching band. He went on to become a Journeyman Electrician, working throughout San Diego, Los angeles and Riverside counties. The lighting of Ruocco Park in Seaport Village was constructed by Kevin personally. Kevin’s talents were widely ranged including gardening, barbequing, beer-brewing, and making those in his life laugh, no one will ever forget his laugh. He loved to read, hike, and argue about sports, obviously always backing the Padres and Chargers. While Kevin was adopted by many as a son and

record during the preliminaries. "That was a great jump," Edwards said. "That was definitely a 19-foot jump, but she was about three or four inches behind the board." Edwards noted that the runway at Buchanan High School seemed to generate more speed than those in San Diego County, which forced additional caution to avoid a foul. "The runway was faster than normal, so we had to back her up about 5 feet," Edwards said. Stallman's preliminaries distance placed eighth. The 12 jumpers who reached the finals were each given three initial jumps, and the nine jumpers with the longest distances from those three jumps received an additional three attempts. Stallman's second jump produced a distance of 18-2 1/4, which was her best showing for her three June 4 jumps. "Twelfth in the state of California in the 100 and 10th in the long jump is pretty awesome," Edwards said. "I was pleased with her performance." The University of Utah track and field program does not give scholarships to freshmen, although Stallman can earn a scholarship for subsequent years through her performance. "I'm excited to see how she'll improve when she goes up to Utah," Edwards said. "She's still a relatively young jumper." Stallman, who will likely also run sprint races for Utah, began her long jump career as a Ramona junior. She also holds the Ramona High School record in the 200 dash and was part of the 4x100 relay team that broke the school record this year. "She had a great year," Edwards said. Stallman was a sprinter all four of her high school seasons and won the Valley League championship in the 100 dash and the 200 dash all four years. "It's going to be hard to even imagine RHS track and field without her next year," Edwards said.

SDG&E works on fire safety in forest San Diego Gas & Electric received approval from the California Public Utilities Commission to fire-harden electrical facilities in and around the Cleveland National Forest, a project that the utility said has been in the planning stages for a decade. The work will reduce fire risk and improve system safety and reliability in an approximately 880-square-mile area in the forest and rural eastern San Diego County, including Santa Ysabel, Julian and Warner Springs, according to SDG&E. The utility’s proposed power line

replacement project primarily consists of wood-to-steel pole replacement, relocation and undergrounding and, in addition to forest service lands, will cross property managed by the Bureau of Land Management and tribal lands. In Ramona, SDG&E’s wood-to-steel pole project, Fire Risk Mitigation (FIRM), involves changing lower-voltage wood distribution poles for taller, stronger, more fire-and wind-resilient steel poles, noted Stephanie Donovan, SDG&E senior communications manager.

PET OF THE WEEK

1028 A Street

MILLIE, a 13-year-old Do-

mestic Short Hair, is looking for a loving home. She was brought in by her previous owner who had too many pets, and is now looking for a new family to call her own. Millie may be a bit shy at ﬁrst, but once she gets to know her humans, she loves to sit on laps for gentle petting. She would be a wonderful companion for a mellow, easy-going home where she can be pampered and spoiled for years to come. Millie is available for adoption at San Diego Humane Society’s San Diego Campus located at 5500 Gaines Street. To learn more about making Millie part of your family, please call 619-299-7012 or visit sdhumane.org.

AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, in lawful money of the United States, all payable at the time of sale, that certain property situated in said County, California describing the land therein as: AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN SAID DEED OF TRUST The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 2110 ORANGE AVENUE, RAMONA, CA 92065. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $86,143.39 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other

to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code.

Mock wedding serves as final exam for some students BY ALEXIS NAGEM The “Bridal Chorus” played from the speakers in the Ramona High School Performing Arts Wing as floral design students marched down the aisle to begin their mock wedding ceremony. Preceded by a wedding party of her peers, Nicole Donais met Miguel Calvillo at the altar. Donais and Calvillo wrote their own vows for the event, laughing and making jokes, much to the enjoyment of the guests. The duo then exchanged rings. Donais’ was a rosebud from the floral design class enclosed in a silver wire. In place of the traditional first kiss, the couple decided an intimate fist-bump would suffice. After the couple was united in phony-matrimony, students went to the culinary arts room to enjoy a reception catered by second-year students in the culinary arts class. Amongst the crowded tables, the acting newlyweds had their first dance to the tune of Lee Brice’s “Hard to Love.” Once the music faded, the maid of honor and best man read the speeches they had written for the bride and groom. The make-believe union served as the final exam for floral design students and three culinary students. The culinary arts students created a menu for the reception that included lemon-blackberry cupcakes, macaroni and cheese bites and appetizers made with pieces of watermelon and feta cheese with balsamic vinegar reduction. “I think it went great,” culinary arts teacher Laurie Ivers said. “The food’s gone!” For the final, floral design teacher Alyson Tulloch instructed her students to make bouquets, boutonnieres and

centerpieces for the wedding and reception. These arrangements had to match the color scheme chosen by Donais, which was marsala-red and navy. Students Hannah and Leah Gill helped create the boutonnieres worn by the young men in the wedding party. To begin making the boutonnieres, the students chose leatherleaf ferns to provide the green base needed. For the main flower, they used marsala-colored

spray roses, with baby’s breath flowers as the filler. “[Baby’s breath] just adds a little more depth and visual appeal,” Leah said. Once the plants and flowers had been decided, the students added a navy ribbon to the boutonnieres before wiring the whole structure and taping it together with floral tape. The pieces were then curled at the bottom and pinned to the groomsmen’s shirts. Along with the work they put in to

Appeals court rules on concealed weapons case (CNS) — People do not have a constitutional right to carry concealed weapons in public, a federal appeals courts ruled Thursday. An 11-judge panel of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals took up the case brought by a part-time San Diego resident and other gun owners after state Attorney General Kamala Harris appealed a ruling by a smaller 9th Circuit panel that struck down a policy by the San Diego County Sheriff's Department. The department had required applicants to show “good cause” why they needed a concealed weapons permit. “The devastating impact gun violence has on our communities underscores the need for common sense gun safety laws,” Harris said. “The court's decision is a victory for public safety and sensible gun safety laws. The ruling ensures that local law enforcement leaders have the tools they need to protect public safety by determining who can carry loaded, concealed weapons in our communities.” In its ruling, the 11-judge appeals panel said California counties may require people seeking permits for concealed guns to state specific reasons why they need the weapons. “We hold that the Second Amendment does not preserve or protect a right of a member of the general public to carry concealed firearms in public,” according to the opinion. The case stems from a 2009 lawsuit filed by Edward Peruta and other gun owners who were denied concealed-carry permits.

the mock wedding, Hannah and Leah have been using the skills they learned in class to help make a cut flowers display for their job at the San Diego County Fair. Bridgette Gardea helped design and construct the centerpieces that decorated the reception. “We had to just kind of play it by ear,” she said. “We decided it was going to be round, but they were longer, so we had to do a long-round.” The overall goal of the course is to teach students general floral design, Tulloch said. Students learn employable skills to potentially prepare them for a job in the floral industry. “If they didn’t want to do the floral design, we do a unit about how the flowers are grown and how they’re harvested and transported,” Tulloch said. “So, any jobs within that supply chain, whether it’s the grower, the warehouse or the wholesaler. There’s kind of a lot of options for the kids, whether it’s actually designing and playing with the flowers or if they’re looking more at the business side of things.” When planning the final for her students, Tulloch decided that the wedding would help students exhibit the skills and abilities they had obtained throughout the year. “It’s kind of a fun way to wrap up all the designing skills and all the techniques that they’ve learned,” she said. Taking into consideration the success of this school year, Tulloch hopes to some day establish an Arrangement of the Month Club for the faculty on campus. “They pay for a year’s subscription and every month we get them an arrangement that they always have to take home or have on their desk,” said Tulloch.

Early-morning quake jolts region City News Service—A strong but shallow earthquake in Anza Borrego Desert State Park jolted residents awake early Friday morning. The magnitude-5.2 temblor struck at 1:04 a.m. at a depth of .6 mile, according to a computer-generated report from the U.S. Geological Survey. A quake of such strength is capable of generating considerable damage, but there were no immediate reports of injuries or damage in either San Diego or Riverside counties, authorities said. However, the earthquake triggered a minor rockslide on Montezuma Valley Road, about 14 miles southeast of Borrego Springs, the California Highway Patrol reported. Several aftershocks followed the initial quake. Its epicenter was 13 miles north-northwest of Borrego Springs. It was strong enough to be felt in the city of Los Angeles, as well as in San Bernardino and Orange counties and in parts of Mexico.

The earthquake occurred along the San Jacinto Fault, historically the most active fault in Southern California, according to seismologist Lucy Jones. It was near a magnitude-6 earthquake in 1937 and a magnitude-5.3 earthquake in 1980, Jones reported. “We have never seen a San Andreas earthquake triggered by a San Jacinto earthquake,” Jones wrote on Twitter, referring to the state's most well-known fault, the one along which the so-called “big one” is expected to hit someday. “Every earthquake has a 5 percent of triggering an aftershock that is bigger than itself — always within a few miles of location of the first earthquake,” Jones wrote. There were at least eight aftershocks in the same general area within 3 hours and 10 minutes. The strongest were magnitude-3.5 shakers at 1:06 a.m., 1:33 a.m. and 4.14 a.m. — all at a depth of slightly more than 6 miles.
