Ramona resident and two-time Olympian Patty Weirich, assistant coach for the Ramona High School track and field team, is pictured with Emily Sojourner, RHS Class of 2016 graduate who broke the 100-meter hurdles record in May, when she was a senior.

BY JOE NAIMAN Patty Weirich, Ramona High School's assistant coach for hurdles the past two track and field seasons, has an impressive history — she competed in the 1968 and 1972 Olympic Games. “It still stays with you, the feeling, the emotions, the sense of pride to be able to represent the USA and to be at the Olympics,” Weirich said 48 years after her first Olympic appearance. “It was a very exciting time,” Weirich said. “For me it was getting to meet other athletes from all over the world who were there with the same mindset.” Weirich was Patty Van Wolvelaere when she ran in the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City and Patty Johnson when she competed in

the 1972 Olympics in Munich. Her father was in the Navy when she was born in San Diego, and after spending some of her earliest childhood in Japan, the family moved to the Seattle area where her mother was raised. She was 15 when she began competing in races. Girls interscholastic sports did not exist when she was in ninth grade in Renton, Wash., in 1965. The Girls Athletic Association was more comparable to intramural events. Her ninth-grade physical education teacher saw a newspaper article about a co-ed track meet and entered the team. “She said: ‘You might be in the next Olympic Games,’” Weirich said. “Three years SEE OLYMPIAN, A18

‘Four best days of summer’ start today

Billed as the four best days of summer, Ramona Country Fair starts today and continues through Sunday with amusement rides, a midway of carnival games, contests, live music and entertainment, food, a motorcycle rally and Wild West shows. Presented by Ramona Chamber of Commerce, the 46th annual Ramona Country Fair will be at the Ramona Outdoor Community Center, 421 Aqua Lane. Admission is free. Parking is $5 per carload. Fair hours are: 5 to 11 p.m. on Thursday and Friday, noon to 11 p.m. on Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. on Sunday. “The Ramona Country Fair is an old-fashioned country fair that shows how Ramona has that home-sweet-home feeling and the best that small towns still have to offer in a big-city world,” said Sally Westbrook, Ramona chamber board member and chairman of the Ramona Country Fair. “We are guaranteeing family fun for children of every age. It’s the best four days of summer.” The fair also features at least 100 vendors, including local businesses and home crafters. An expanded food court will offer an assortment of craft and domestic beers and frozen margaritas. Also on display will be the latest Dodge Ram trucks from Poway Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram, as well as selected motorcycles from a custom motorcycle competition to be held on Sunday morning. A variety of crowd-pleasing, hometown contests are planned, including pie-eating contest, frozen T-shirt contest, best mustache contest and awards for best jams, jellies, honey, salsa, jerky and pickles. Winners also will be selected for art and photography and the “Man About Town” competition, which is a contest based on who can collect the highest number of votes and donations during the past two months.

‘Charlotte’s Ride’ reveals world of kindness BY KAREN BRAINARD The transcontinental journey that Jon McKee took as a tribute to his late wife and a fundraiser for Alzheimer's research turned into so much more for the Ramona cyclist. As he logged the miles, pedaling his way from state to state, visiting with old friends and former Ramonans along the way, he found himself taking a trip down Memory Lane. He also found a world of human kindness and unexpected encounters.

During his 9-1/2 weeks on the road, McKee noted there was so much violence happening globally between terrorist attacks and police shootings. “All I ever encountered in my little world, between the handlebars, was human kindness....it was that human element that made the trip so rich and meaningful. Just wonderful, kind, thoughtful people. Strangers who became friends,” he said. McKee's wife, Charlotte, died April 8 SEE MCKEE, A20

Plans move forward for Montecito Ranch Culverts slow intersection project, says Caltrans The developer of Montecito Ranch, a residential community on 935 acres northeast of Montecito Way and Sonora Way, is moving the project along, recently seeking an agreement with the Ramona Municipal Water District for on-and off-site sewer and recycled water facilities. The water board at its July 12 meeting approved an agreement with Montecito Properties LLC, represented by Bruce Tabb, that states Montecito Ranch shall plan, design and construct at its own cost, on- and off-site wastewater conveyance pipelines and appurtenances, a wastewater pump station, a recycled water tertiary treatment facility and recycled water pump station at the

Santa Maria Water Reclamation Plant, and recycled water spray fields and storage pond. The infrastructure must be designed to district standards and be dedicated to the district upon completion, states the agreement. The developer will also construct recycled water conveyance pipelines and retain ownership of those that directly provide irrigation within the development. The water district has scheduled a public hearing for Sept. 13 to apply to the Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCO) for the expansion of the district’s latent sewer powers area for the Montecito Ranch development. Written comments may be addressed to the District Office, 105

Earlham St., Ramona, CA 92065 Attn: RMWD Expansion of Latent Sewer Powers Area. The Ramona Community Planning Group will be considering an item related to Montecito Ranch when it meets Sept. 1. Montecito Ranch is requesting a Habitat Loss Permit for the loss of 62.2 acres of Diegan coastal sage scrub, according to the agenda. The group meets at 7 p.m. in the Ramona Library Community Room, 1275 Main St. The project, approved by county Board of Supervisors six years ago, will consist of 417 single-family homes, infrastructure improvements, public park, dedicated open space, and an open space easement of 558.27 acres.

ON THE AGENDA Thursday, Aug. 25 Ramona Unified School District Board, 7 p.m., Wilson Administrative Center Board Room, 720 Ninth St. Among agenda items: Public hearing on district’s request for waiver of competitive bidding procedures for 40-acre parcel behind Ramona High; courses of study for special education language arts and for individual music studies; agreement between district and teachers union to provide health and welfare benefits to eligible union members;

approval of numerous items on consent calendar; and reports from superintendent, employee union representatives, student representatives on board and board members. Complete agenda online at ramonausd.net. Ramona Design Review Board, 7:30 p.m., Ramona Community Center, 434 Aqua Lane. Agenda includes site plan review for cultivation facility at 2338 Montecito Road and for Jiffy Lube at 1850 Main St., waiver request for McDonald’s exterior

improvements at 1660 Main St., and reappointment for chair Rob Lewallen. One seat is still vacant on the nine-member board. Those interested in applying for the position are encouraged to attend. Monday, Aug. 29 East Subcommittee of Ramona Community Planning Group, 6:15 p.m., Ramona Community Center, 434 Aqua Lane. Site plan exemption request for the “S” scenic designator at 139 Rancho Allen Lane, off state Route SEE AGENDA, A5

Work on the state Route 67 and Highland Valley/Dye Road intersection improvement project has slowed for a short time while concrete box culverts are manufactured for drainage improvements, reported Caltrans. The culverts and concrete pipe will be placed beneath SR-67 on both sides of the intersection and beneath Highland Valley Road in late September. Installing the culverts will require one-way traffic control and will be scheduled at night to minimize impacts to motorists, said Caltrans. The transportation agency said signs will be placed ahead of time to alert drivers and it will issue a construction update when the night closures are confirmed. In early August crews removed rumble strips from the median on SR-67 and re-striped the lanes to shift traffic toward the southbound side. The shift made room for work to widen the northbound shoulders. Caltrans said it is monitoring the traffic signal timing at the intersection and making adjustments as needed to improve the flow of traffic.

July progress included shoulder excavation in both directions of SR-67, installing electrical conduits, and utility work by the Ramona Municipal Water District. Crews excavated the new bioswale on the northwest corner of Highland Valley Road and Route 67. Irrigation was installed from the northeast corner of Highland Valley Road and SR-67 to the new bioswale area. With school back in session, Caltrans said there will be changing traffic patterns and more congestion in the project area during the morning commute. Motorists are advised to allow extra travel time to reach their destinations. The project, aimed at improving traffic flow, is on schedule, said Caltrans, and will take about a year to complete. Caltrans partnered with the County of San Diego for the intersection improvements that are estimated to cost $14 million. Funding is provided by the State Highway Operation and Protection Program and San Diego County Transportation Impacts Fees and TransNet funds.

Smooth start to school year Ramona Unified School District Superintendent Anne Staffieri, Ed.D., said the first day of school on Monday “was a wonderful smooth start to our school year.” “On each school site there was evidence of teachers and staff working together to provide a high quality learning environment for our students,” said Staffieri, who visited each of the district’s nine

schools. “Our students came in with enthusiasm looking forward to another school year.” The first day of the 2016-17 school year saw a student enrollment of 5,446, which is 48 fewer than the 5,494 projected, but enrollment numbers traditionally change during the beginning of each school year as more families return from summer activities.

OUR READERS WRITE Road project poses potential danger Now that the San Vicente Road project is nearing completion, I have noticed a potential danger to motorists. The expanded lanes in the vicinity of Deviney Lane are going to be an invitation for people to try and pass and there just is not enough space to make it safe. I was passed by some teenager in a large, brand new Ford pickup on Sunday afternoon on my way into town. He was tailgating me all the way from Wildcat Canyon Road and made his move at Deviney. He had to go into the oncoming lane to complete his risky maneuver and rode the rumble strip for quite awhile. Looks like some poor planning here that could end up taking lives. George K.

Sheriff’s volunteers deserve shout-out Just wanted to give a public shout-out to the volunteer patrol that actively assists the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department. During the recent Rock Fire, I saw them out and about setting up roadblocks and directing traffic around the fires. I appreciate their dedicated volunteer service and commitment to excellence.

Lack of water killing plants I hope someone at the Sentinel has noticed most of the planting at the Ramona Monument corner at Highland Valley is now dead due to lack of water. If one would contact the Spirit of Joy, one may hear about the water meter being disconnected because of roadway construction for the intersection. Plants don't need excuses; they need water. Bottom line is that all the geraniums I planted are gone and the six rose bushes I planted are down to two and they look as if they are fading. If the grapevines and other plants aren't irrigated soon, on a regular basis, they will also die. Perhaps the Sentinel can look into what's going on? Maybe start with the water district.....

GUEST COMMENTARY

Where is the real conflict? BY KEVIN PACK So Director Ace wants to “investigate potential conflicts of interest” of two of the challengers for the seats on the water board, one of which is his. Why, because they live in the district they represent, they have already said they are willing to resign their seats on the San Diego Country Estates Association Board should that be considered an issue. Since we have had water board members and SDCEA board members holding respective seats on the boards at the same time in the past with no accusations of a “conflict of interest,” what is his problem? Will he be willing to open himself up to the very speculation that he is willing to subject his challenger to? To this reader it would appear that Director Ace is attempting to intimidate his challenger and poison the well of the electorate, before the race has even begun. Seems to me he is the one with a “conflict of interest.” His explanation: “That potential conflicts of interest could (my emphasis) occur when the district negotiates a new recycled water contract with SDCEA and during water and sewer discussions.” Well innuendo and maybes do not get you a conflict; in fact, since the two proposed challengers are not even on the water board, the discussion is moot. Since there is no “conflict of interest” until the person is on the board and it is the board’s job to police or monitor its members for just

those issues, as well as the electorate that those members serve, is Director Ace trying to influence an election? Should Director Ace have recused himself, “when voting on or participating in negotiations” having anything to do with the district that he represents since he would have been the beneficiary of his vote regarding water and sewer fees, or on any vote taken that would benefit his district since he lives in it? Remember he is a sitting water board member; in fact he is the board president. This is one of the worst examples I have ever seen of a water board president attempting to use his powerful seat as the president to try and intimidate an opponent before a race has even fully begun. I fully agree with Director Hickle: “Just the fact that you are … going up for re-election, there is a conflict there.” I believe that the current sitting president of the water board has created a “conflict of interest” regarding himself, simply by him creating an ad hoc committee to investigate his opponent for a non-existent “potential conflict” that even the FPPC (Fair Political Practices Commission), has said “would be difficult to offer an opinion on since it has not yet happened” is something that should be looked at as a true conflict of interest. I will also point out that district General Manager David Barnum should have pointed out the very fact that there is no conflict until SEE PACK, A5

the candidate has been elected and taken his seat, then voted, thereby creating the (supposed) conflict and that there are already remedies should this occur. Barnum agreed with the water board president and said “the District should have its legal counsel investigate/review the matter,” thereby securing the expenditures of all of the people of Ramona (the District) to investigate something that has not occurred, and costing us more money in legal fees, thereby giving him another reason to ask for a rate increase again next year and ingratiating himself further with one of the members of the water board who holds his job in the palm of his hands.

Fiery crash kills Mini Cooper driver

Pickup driver faces felony manslaughter, DUI charges

A 24-year-old San Diego man died in a fiery three-vehicle crash on state Route 67 Saturday night, and a 51-year-old Ramona man faces gross vehicular manslaughter and driving under the influence charges in the younger man’s death. Roy Thomas Dunkin was in San Diego Central Jail earlier this week in lieu of $2 million bond. He was scheduled to be arraigned Aug. 24, according to the sheriff’s website. The county medical examiner’s office identified the decedent as Lucas Makana Riley. The collision occurred just south of Cloudy Moon Drive shortly after 7 p.m. on Aug. 20. Riley, the driver of the Mini Cooper that caught fire after being struck head-on in the crash, died at the scene. Dunkin, driver of a full size Chevrolet pickup that struck the smaller vehicle, was arrested on alcohol-related

charges, including felony vehicular manslaughter, the sheriff’s department reported. The preliminary investigation indicated that the pickup was northbound on the highway and veered into the southbound lane, sheriff’s Sgt. Edward Ward reported. The truck collided with the rear quarter panel of a late model Buick sedan and struck the Mini Cooper head on, Ward said. The occupants of the Buick suffered minor injuries, and the driver of the truck was transported to Palomar Medical Center and treated for a broken wrist. Witnesses called 9-1-1. Sheriff’s deputies who arrived at the scene were unable to extricate the victim due to the intensity of the flames, Ward reported. Cal Fire extinguished the vehicle fire. The first responders confirmed the victim’s death, the medical examiner’s office said. Route 67 was closed in west Ramona and Poway for nearly seven hours, with southbound lanes closed at Archie Moore Road and northbound lanes closed at Poway Road, California Highway Patrol reported.

Free concerts will be held at Ramona Library on the second Thursday of each month as part of the Ramona Nights series. The first concert will be held Thursday, Sept. 8, from 6 to 7 p.m., with music provided by Prairie Sky, a San Diego-based bluegrass quartet. The band, comprised of Dwight Worden, Avery Ellisman, Ramona Ault and Jeff Smith, says it “borrows from a wide array of traditional and contemporary sounds.” According to its website, Prairie Sky boasts an “inventive and entertaining sound, featuring strong, tasteful instrumental chops in guitar, mandolin, fiddle and bass, and stellar two, three and four-part harmonies.” The concerts at Ramona Library are offered through the San Diego County Library Acoustic Showcase, a community partnership with the goal of bringing some of San Diego's best local acoustic musicians to free shows at branches across the county. For more information, call 760-788-5270. Ramona Library is at 1275 Main St.

The district held an orientation for the new teachers on Monday, Aug. 15. Assistant Superintendent Tony Newman this week was conducting reference checks for band teacher candidates for Olive Peirce Middle School and Ramona High School. The vacancies are the result of Karl Lampe retiring as middle school band/music teacher, and Maxwell Lowe resigning as Ramona High School band/music teacher to teach at another district.

Staffieri, district superintendent since July 1, replaces Robert Graeff, Ed.D., who retired in June after 15 years with the district. During the convocation of district employees last Thursday in the Charles R. Nunn Performing Arts Center at Olive Peirce Middle School, she introduced her theme for the 2016-17 school year: “Together We Can Make A Difference,” and gave each employee a lapel pin with five stars to represent the five C’s that are considered essential 21st century skills: Collaboration, Civility, Communication, Critical Thinking and Creativity.

Terrorism expert is Tea’d speaker Jim Horn, a retired U.S. diplomat, will present a talk titled “Islam, ISIS, Stealth Jihad and Terrorism” at the Ramona Tea’d forum on Saturday, Aug. 27. Horn, also an author and national speaker, is an expert on political and cultural Islam. He held top secret security clearances in the diplomatic and national security services for a quarter of a century, and spent a decade living and working in the Middle East. He specialized in counter-espionage and counter-terrorism and is active with law enforcement terror early-warning groups and terrorism task forces, and with terrorist response groups in the private sector. “Critical and compelling questions concerning the future of America and our rights and responsibilities as American citizens with regard to the unchecked rise of terrorism brought on by the radical followers of Islam will be discussed and answered,” said the forum announcement. Admission is free, and the public is welcome. “Jim’s mission is to help Americans understand that Islam is at war with, and

intends to destroy civilization. Islam is the most deadly existential threat we have ever faced,” reads Horn’s biography. “We must make one of two choices. We must decide how to deal with this threat, this bigoted, biased ideology of hatred decisively — or accept that we will bequeath to our future generations miserable lives of suffering, terror, poverty, ignorance and more. The time for decision making is upon us now.” “If you want to hear fascinating stories and learn how to protect America from the insidious stealth invasion of Islamic colonizers and about Sharia law, Jim Horn is your man, a man much maligned by those who hate our Constitution and Bill of Rights,” the announcement continued. The forum will be in Ramona Mainstage, 626 Main St. Doors will open at 11 a.m., and the program will begin at noon. Food and drinks are available on site. Early arrival is recommended for the best seats. For more information, see www.ramonatead.com.

Workman spends summer in New England Collegiate Baseball League

ERNIE ANDERSON COURTESY PHOTO

Ramona High graduate Kwayde Miller plays on the offensive line for the San Diego State University Aztecs.

Miller named to pre-season all-MWC teams BY JOE NAIMAN Two football publications selected Kwayde Miller to pre-season all-conference teams. Athlon Sports and Phil Steele's 2016 College Football Preview chose Miller, a 2012 Ramona High School graduate who is expected to be San Diego State University's starting left tackle, to the pre-season Mountain West Conference third team. "To me that stuff really doesn't matter," Miller said. "It's not really like a big thing in my mind." Miller noted that being chosen to an all-conference team at the end of the season would be a more significant achievement, although he believes he can accomplish that goal if he continues to perform at the level he has been doing during the Aztecs' pre-season practices. "It won't be very hard, too, when you have a running back like Pump (Donnel Pumphrey) to make you look good, especially with the O-line we have," he said. Three of last year's five starting offensive linemen, SEE MILLER, A14

BY JOE NAIMAN Before Blake Workman graduated from Ramona High School in 2015, he signed a letter of intent to play college baseball at California State University Fullerton. He played his first home games outside of California this summer as a member of the Plymouth Pilgrims of the New England Collegiate Baseball League. "It was a great experience," Workman said. "It was definitely very fun and interesting." Workman, who is a pitcher, started five of the Pilgrims' 44 games and relieved in two other contests during the season that ended Aug. 3. He posted a 3-1 record with a 3.00 earned run average. He allowed 32 hits and 11 walks in 27 innings while striking out 24. "It turned out to be a great time. I made some really good friends and played baseball all summer," Workman said. Workman's National Collegiate Athletic Association freshman season with Cal State Fullerton consisted of four relief appearances in which he struck out three batters in 4-1/3 innings and won his only decision.

Bonita Vista, Valhalla, and Mira Mesa at the Dawg Pound last Thurday. The four teams participated in varsity, junior varsity and freshman scrimmages. "It was a great scrimmage,” said Baldwin. “Everybody came out healthy and got tons of work. Quite a wonderful day." The combination of teams from the North County Conference (Ramona), Grossmont Conference (Valhalla), City Conference (Mira Mesa), and Metro Conference (Bonita Vista) gave each team a sampling of opposition from throughout the county. Baldwin noted that the coaches from the other three schools expressed interest in returning to Ramona for a 2017 pre-season scrimmage. "Everybody was ecstatic how organized it was," he said. The purpose of the scrimmage was for coaches to get their own teams organized for regular-season and

post-season play. "We found out what we need to work on," Baldwin said. The Ramona varsity’s first regular-season game will be Friday against St. Augustine at Mesa College. The Bulldogs return three starting offensive players and one starting defensive player from the 2015 squad. "We're a young team," Baldwin said. "We've got a handful of seniors who are counting on these young players to help them have a good year." Baldwin formed his varsity, junior varsity and freshman squads during the first two weeks of practice, which began Aug. 3. "They're very coachable," he said of his players. The varsity game at Mesa College will begin at 7 p.m. Due to construction at St. Augustine, the junior varsity and freshman games will be played at Ramona High School on Saturday. The freshman

game will start at 4 p.m. and the junior varsity contest will begin at 7 p.m. "They get to play under the lights," Baldwin said. All Division I teams will compete in the CIF playoffs. The eight highest-seeded teams will participate in the Open Division post-season while the other teams will seek the CIF Division I championship. The Bulldogs are thus guaranteed at least one post-season game. "We just want to focus on getting better," Baldwin said. "Each week our mission is to try to improve." Last year St. Augustine had a 10-3 record including two losses by a combined total of 5 points to CIF Southern Section teams. The Saints' only loss to a San Diego Section team was in the Open Division championship game against Helix. "We get to go against the best right away, so we're going to get a chance to see where we are," Baldwin said.

including Miller, are part of the 2016 Aztecs. "It's still the same on the left side," he said. "We have a pretty close bond." Miller, left guard Nico Siragusa and center Arthur Flores are all seniors this year. Miller and Flores became starters in 2015, while Siragusa also started all of the Aztecs' 2014 games. The other two starting offensive linemen from 2015 were seniors. "The new guys are on the right side," Miller said. One of those new offensive linemen isn't exactly new to the unit. Valley Center's Daniel Brunskill will be making the switch from starting tight end to offensive lineman, although Brunskill was more of a blocking tight end than a receiving tight end during his first three years with the Aztecs. "I feel like we're going to have another successful year," Miller said. Last year the Aztecs finished the season with an 11-3 record, including victories in the Mountain West Conference championship game and in the Hawaii Bowl. San Diego State won all eight MWC games prior to defeating Air Force in the contest for the conference championship. Every team desires to be the defending conference champion, although every other team in that conference sees its game against the defending champion as a benchmark. "It makes us a target," Miller said. Miller noted that the Aztecs don't think of themselves as targets but rather focus on each of the season's games. Pre-season practice began Aug. 8. "We're starting to get in our groove," Miller said. The Aztecs open their season Sept. 3 at home against the University of New Hampshire. "I think by the end of camp we're going to be looking pretty good," Miller said.

players from different schools actually was a good experience. It really helped me feel more comfortable in a place I hadn't been." Workman stayed with a host family who lives approximately 3-1/2 miles from the ballpark. He was a relief pitcher for the first two weeks of the season and a starter for the remainder of the summer. "I got as many innings as I could and as many pitches as I could," Workman said. "It fulfilled my expectations." The Pilgrims, who finished with a 19-25 record, were one of 12 teams in the New England Collegiate Baseball League. Scouts from professional organizations often attend collegiate summer league games. "It was very good that way for exposure," Workman said. NCAA games often have sparser attendance and the scouts with their radar guns, which provide the speed of pitches, are often noticeable. Workman didn't always notice the scouts at the collegiate league games. "It was kind of hard to tell sometimes," he said. "Most stadiums actually packed their places pretty nicely." Workman will likely receive an assignment for a 2017 collegiate summer league near the end of his sophomore season at Fullerton. He will be competing to become one of the Titans' starting pitchers during pre-season practice next year.

Poway shooting affects Ramona commuters Parolee fatally struck in deputy shooting BY DAVID HERNANDEZ A man who stole a patrol car and then carjacked a driver in an SUV was fatally struck once in the chest when deputies opened fire on him early last Thursday in Poway, sheriff’s officials said Friday. Trenton Lohman, 38, of Lakeside, was on parole for battery causing serious bodily injury and possession of methamphetamine, and previously served time in prison for robbery, sheriff’s homicide Lt. Kenn Nelson said. The incident resulted in authorities closing Poway Road between state Route 67 and Sunrise Ranch Road for most of the day, affecting Ramona commuters who use Poway Road and were directed to Scripps Poway Parkway. Four deputies fired at Lohman at two locations along Poway Road as he led deputies on a brief chase that ended when he crashed the SUV. The names of the deputies have not yet been made public. The series of shootings began when someone reported a prowler looking into vehicles with a flashlight at George and Kat’s Auto Service on Poway Road near Adah Lane about 6:50 a.m. last Thursday,

Nelson said. Deputies got there within two minutes and shortly after reported shots had been fired. Lohman got into a deputy’s patrol car and sped off as other deputies chased him east on Poway Road. At Espola Road, Lohman got out and carjacked a nearby driver. Shortly after, deputies caught up to the stolen SUV and shot at Lohman, who then veered into a brushy ravine near Espola and Poway roads. Lohman was found dead behind the steering wheel. Deputies found knives, a hatchet and loose handgun ammunition in the SUV. Nelson said investigators believe the items belonged to Lohman. Deputies also found a handgun used in the carjacking. Investigators believe a bullet-riddled SUV at the Poway Road auto shop was Lohman’s. They have not completed a search of the vehicle, Nelson said. Nelson did not say whether the suspect fired at the deputies. Hernandez writes for the San Diego Union-Tribune.

Staffieri gave special recognition to Chuck Mandala, maintenance worker who retired Aug. 19 after 42 years with the district. “This was a wonderful event, and positive energy was high,” Staffieri said, noting that the auditorium was full of administrators, teachers and other certificated employees, and support staff.

o with all the types of workout plans and exercise programs out there, DVD workouts, CrossFit, yoga, Pilates, bootcamps, which one is the right one for you? I'll tell you what I'm fed up with — people saying that there's only one way to exercise. What is the number one exercise that's right for you? The exercise that's right for you and the workout program that is right for you is the workout program you enjoy most and that you're most likely to stick to. It could be weightlifting, CrossFit, insanity, step aerobics or even Jazzercise. What matters most is what matters most to you. So if you love to lift, you love Pilates, or hot yoga, or step classes or kettle bell workouts, awesome. Now within that we still must have three important components. Those three components are consistency, accountability, and variability. No matter what program you do, in order to get results, either

physically, mentally, or healthwise, you must be consistent with it. A one or two day a week workout plan won't create much in terms of results. It may be good for the short-term and releasing endorphins and help you feel good. But if your goal is to tone your muscles, reduce adipose or body fat tissue, gain lean body mass or increase your bone density, you must have a significant level of consistency. The next component no matter what exercise routine that you do is you must have a level of accountability. I have been working out since I was 11. That's going on on 28 years. I still need accountability. I create this accountability through a workout partner. Yes, I can go it alone, but even for myself, a physique competitor and gym owner, I still need accountability.

The last component you need in whatever program you decide to follow is variability. Our bodies are uniquely and wonderfully made. They have an uncanny ability to adapt and adjust to whatever we are doing. In your workout routine you must find variability in frequency, intensity, duration, and type. You can educate yourself on how to vary your workouts or, better yet, find some professional help. So, yes, I'm fed up with those who say this is the only way to work out. They are wrong. Whatever gets you going, whatever gets you to do it is the way to work out. But within those parameters you must include these three variables: consistency, accountability and variability.

Public shares Boulder Oaks concerns with county BY KAREN BRAINARD Among the abundance of comments that the county received about plans for Boulder Oaks Preserve, concerns about traffic, parking, and fire/emergency evacuations topped the list. On June 30, the county’s Department of Parks and Recreation (DPR) hosted a public meeting at Ramona Library about its proposed plans for its new 2,000-acre open space preserve located off Mussey Grade Road. The county is proposing low-intensity, low use, non-motorized, multi-use trails with three one-acre staging areas, each providing for 10 vehicles. About 100 residents showed up, most from the Mussey Grade Road area, asking questions and filling out comment cards about public access to the preserve. Parks and Rec accepted comments until July 15 and have them available to view at www.sandiegocounty. gov/content/sdc/ parks/news.html, under Boulder Oaks Community Meeting. The county received about 100 comments from cards and letters submitted. Traffic concerns included speeding and overflow parking on Mussey Grade Road, with some referencing parking problems at Mt. Woodson Trail and Iron Mountain. Many comments raised concerns for wildfire evacuation as Mussey Grade is a dead end and, according to one comment, approximately 200 homes along the road were destroyed in the 2003 Cedar Fire. “A comprehensive fire protection plan must be completed,” stated one comment. “The additional presence of public individuals on the property inherently increases the change for fire. We also want to ensure we can quickly evacuate via Mussey Grade Road in the event of an emergency without being trapped by additional traffic.” Other responses focused on maintenance and operation, concerns of

crime, trespassing and neighborhood impacts, enforcement, and impacts to resources. According to the county, 8 percent of comments discussed an environmental review. In addition to the public meeting, DPR staff met

with the Mussey Grade Road Alliance, whose spokesperson, Diane Conklin, is urging that an environmental impact report be conducted. “The alliance believes that the department is working hard to achieve a

balance regarding use of the Boulder Oaks Preserve, however, we also believe that balance cannot be achieved without an environmental impact report, which we have repeatedly requested and will continue to fight for,”

she said. Many people requested that the county continue to engage the public in the development of the preserve. DPR said it will work on a Public Access Plan, a Vegetation Management

Plan and a Resource Management Plan with efforts to balance the preservation of local habitat with user access. The department plans to conduct a second community meeting in 2017.

If an emergency happens, will you be ready?

FROM OLYMPIAN, A1 later as an 18-year-old I was on the Olympic team.” In March 1968, she ran in an indoor meet at the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Arena and set a world record of 7.4 seconds in the 60-yard hurdles, although she noted that all other nations conducted their meets using meters rather than yards for distances. “I just took to them naturally,” she said of the hurdles. “I was a good sprinter. Hurdlers have to be sprinters first.” The 1968 Olympic Team Trials were held at Mount San Antonio College. Weirich finished second in the 80-meter hurdles, allowing her to be part of the United States Olympic Team at Mexico City. The 1968 Summer Olympics may be best known for its political controversies. American sprinters Tommie Smith and John Carlos gave the Black Power salute on the victory podium, and pressure from nations with black athletes led to the exclusion of South Africa and Rhodesia from the Olympics. The track and field events at University Olympic Stadium are also remembered for the 7,365-foot altitude of the track. “It didn't affect my race because mine was the shortest race,” Weirich said. The Olympic hurdlers trained for the Mexico City altitude in Los Alamos, N.M. Weirich had a time of 10.5 seconds in the 80-meter hurdles, placing her fourth behind two Australians and a Chinese hurdler. “Coming in fourth was amazing,” she said. The time also set an American record. “I still have that record,” Weirich said. “The next year they went to the 100-meter hurdles.” The 80-meter hurdles were not shown on American television, although one of Weirich’s aunts lived in Yuma, Ariz., and was able to watch the event on a Mexican channel. Weirich's activities between the 1968 and 1972 Olympics included twice-yearly track

and field competitions between the United States and the Soviet Union. She won the gold medal in the 1971 Pan American Games, which were held in Cali, Colombia, and set an American record of 13.1 seconds in the 100-meter hurdles. The conversion process from hand-held times to electronic times adds 24/100 of a second to hand-held times, so Weirich once again set an American record at the 1972 Olympic Games with a time of 13.26 seconds. That placed her ninth and eliminated her during the semifinals. “The Germans and the Russians and the Bulgarians were all competing with steroids,” she said. Weirich noted that she had defeated her Soviet counterparts in the earlier USA-USSR meets. “It was starting to happen in Eastern Bloc countries,” she said of steroids during the 1972 Olympics. She added that some distance runners in the 1972 Olympics were resorting to blood doping (self-transfusions of fresh blood), although that was not yet banned. “It's always a cat and mouse game,” she said of performance enhancement activities. Her first husband was stationed at Camp Pendleton, and she lived in San Clemente between 1970 and the 1972 Olympics. “I trained by myself for two years,” she said. The preliminary heats for the women's 100-meter hurdles were held on Sept. 4, 1972. On the morning of Sept. 5, Palestinian terrorists attacked the Israeli men's area of the Olympic Village and killed 11 Israeli athletes and coaches. “That was the first real terrorist attack on a world stage,” Weirich said. Ironically, the Germans sought to downplay political activity, since during the previous Olympic Games in Germany in 1936 Adolf Hitler used the Olympics for political propaganda and the Berlin games had a notable military presence. “There was really not much security at

all,” Weirich said. The 1972 Olympic athletes and coaches were soon made aware of the massacre of the Israelis. “You didn't know where that was going to end,” Weirich said. Weirich had become friends with Israeli hurdler Esther Roth, who survived the massacre but whose coach was killed. They had both competed in the preliminaries on Sept. 4. The Olympic Games were postponed due to the massacre, so no competition took place Sept. 6. Weirich ran the semifinals Sept. 7. “You didn't expect something like that to happen at the Olympic Games,” she said. “It was pretty hard to concentrate when all that was going on.” Roth had qualified for the semifinals but did not compete, as the surviving Israeli athletes had been evacuated. Roth later returned to running and trained with Weirich when she was competing for the University of Southern California. After Weirich and her first husband divorced in 1973, she returned to Washington briefly before moving to Oceanside and attending Mira Costa College from 1973-75. She competed for the La Jolla Track Club, which became Wilt's Wonder Women in 1974, when basketball legend Wilt Chamberlain, who had also been a high jumper at the University of Kansas, became involved to honor his sisters. “He had two sisters he said were better athletes than he was,” Weirich said. In 1975, at the age of 25, Weirich became the first woman to receive a track scholarship to USC. “For me it was huge," she said. She participated in the Olympic Team Trials for the 1976 Olympic Games but was recovering from an Achilles tendon injury. The top three hurdlers competed at the Olympics in Montreal, and she finished fifth in the trials. She competed for USC until 1978, and in her final year she had a time of 13.14 seconds, the fastest of her career.

Although the United States boycotted the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, Olympic Team Trials were held. An injury curtailed Weirich's participation, and she retired from running. "I got to travel all of the world. That was the best part of that," Weirich said of her running career. She returned to Oceanside after her graduation from USC. She initially planned to continue her career as a college coach and began graduate studies at San Diego State University. Her plans for a master’s degree lasted one semester. When she noticed a flier in the Physical Education Department about the City of San Diego Fire Department recruiting women, she applied and was hired in February 1981. She spent the next 24 years with the fire department. "I was able to take all that training and put it into something new," she said. "Without all that it would have been a very difficult job to do." Weirich met her current husband when he was assigned to Fire Station 21 in Pacific Beach and she was filling in for a Station 21 firefighter who was on vacation. They moved to Ramona in 1983. Weirich joined the Ramona High track and field coaching staff in 1996, when Sherri Edwards was head coach. Edwards took a hiatus from coaching to raise her sons, and the demands of Weirich's fire department job made coaching too much of a hardship at the time. After Weirich retired from the fire department, she returned as one of Edwards' coaches in 2015. “It's a passion of mine,” she said of coaching. “I have a lot to share. I've really enjoyed being there the last two years. The coaching staff has just been a really wonderful experience for me." Her current Olympics experience is as a television spectator. “Right now when it’s going on it’s pretty fun," she said before the 2016 summer games ended.

Ramona welcomes return of Palomar College classes

COURTESY PHOTO

Among those attending the Palomar College Open House on its Ramona satellite campus, from left, are: Palomar College President Joi Lin Blake, Ed.D.; Palomar Board President Mark Evilsizer; Palomar trustees Nancy Hensch and Dr. John Halcon; Ramona Unified Superintendent Anne Staffieri, Ed.D.; and Ramona Unified Board President Kim Lasley.

It was standing room only for the open house announcing the 2016 Palomar College/Ramona Unified School District partnership. Officials from both institutions were on hand at the open house last Wednesday on the Ramona Community School campus to meet and greet incoming and prospective Palomar College students and introduce them to the renewed partnership in Ramona. Classes started this week and are intended for all interested adults as well as high school students in Ramona Unified School District. Palomar classes offered this fall at the college’s satellite campus at Ramona Community, 1010 Ramona St., include:

Basic Economics (Economics 100), American History through Reconstruction (History 101), Introduction to Sociology (Sociology 101) and Oral Communications (Speech 100). English as a Second Language and Literacy/Adult Basic Education I and II are also offered and are held at Ramona High School, 1401 Hanson Lane. For more information and to register, go to: www2.palomar.edu/pages/ramona communitycampus/. “Sign up now and take advantage of these incredible learning opportunities without having to go down the hill,” said Staffieri.

FROM MCKEE, A1 from complications of Alzheimer's disease, just 2-1/2 months before the couple's 40 wedding anniversary. An avid cyclist, McKee decided to ride cross country in her honor and linked with Alzheimer's San Diego to promote “Charlotte's Ride” as a fundraiser for finding a cure for the devastating disease. His goal was to raise $25,000. He exceeded that, raising $28,500. On May 20, McKee, a Vietnam veteran and retired school teacher, headed out from the Alzheimer's San Diego headquarters parking lot where the fanfare included a send-off by county Supervisor Dianne Jacob. His destination: Yorktown, Va., where Dr. John Bryant, his best friend from his days in Vietnam, has a medical practice. The first few days of McKee’s trip through the desert were challenging, producing a lot of flat tires. He attributed the flats to debris along the interstate and the heat. From El Centro to El Paso, Texas, he had nine flat tires. “No shade, no trees, just cars and trucks whizzing past me and no alternative but to just change the flat tire. Oh, it was awful. I was so discouraged,” he said. By the time he reached Dateland, Ariz., he had already used four of the five spare inner tubes he had packed. So he contacted his friends, Jose and Sandy Smith of Ramona, who drove out and brought him more inner tubes. “They came that very evening. They saved the day for me,” said McKee. Fortunately he and the Smiths had set up a Friend Finder app so they could find each other, for it was dark when they arrived and with no motel around, McKee resorted to pitching his tent by a farm road. McKee was tired the next day

Jon McKee stands with his friend, Dr. John Bryant, at Kitty Hawk, visiting the historic site in North Carolina after arriving at his transcontinental bike ride destination -- Bryant's medical practice in Yorktown, Va. when he reached Gila Bend, Ariz., and sought a room at the Space Age Lodge. The receptionist told him check-in wasn't for two more hours. Then she looked at his yellow shirt with “Charlotte's Ride” printed across the front and said she would check. She came back and said a room was ready. McKee looked at her name tag. It read “Charlotte.” After reaching Texas, McKee was able to get off the interstate and ride highways and local roads. Along the way, he stayed with friends in El Paso and Austin, Texas, and at the Florence, Ala., home of former Ramonans Chuck and Cindy Traisi. A highlight of his trip was staying at Fort Polk near Leesville,

La., where he served as a commanding officer. “In four years in the Army it was my favorite assignment,” he said. He wrote ahead of time to see if he could get authorization to enter the post. Not only was that granted, but he was treated to the VIP quarters. “So many places that I rode through triggered so many memories, especially Fort Polk, but also my old friends,” said McKee. When he visited Asheville, N.C., staying with Allan and Eleanor Buchanan, formerly of Ramona, McKee rented a car and drove to Fuquay-Varina, N.C., to see one of his best friends from Fort Polk. “The last time I'd seen him was

the day I got out of the Army in ’72. Gosh, our friendship resumed instantly as soon as I drove up.” Every night he posted his adventures on Facebook. “It was good for me to put each day’s ride into perspective and inject a little humor.” His “Charlotte's Ride” shirt was often a conversation starter with people he encountered. McKee handed out his brochure about the ride. Days later, when checking the donation website he would see contributions and names he did not recognize. Bryant and his wife arranged for McKee to stay in a bed and breakfast inn in Williamsburg, Va., before he arrived in Yorktown. The next morning, McKee said several cyclists from Yorktown arrived to accompany him to Bryant's office where a welcoming reception was set up in the parking lot. Hanging in the lot was a banner sent from Alzheimer's San Diego, signed by many and printed with some of McKee's Facebook trip photos. “It was just a really neat reception,” commented a grateful McKee.

The 9-1/2 weeks was just the right amount of time, he said, and it gave him time to reflect. “It was the right thing to do. I was able to think over my 40 years with Charlotte.” Although she had been diagnosed with Alzheimer's 1-1/2 years before she died, McKee said a doctor told him she likely had it for about 11 years. During the ride, he recalled little oddities or irrationalities that surprised him at the time. “I was able to put it all into perspective then of the disease, and realize that wasn't Charlotte, that was the disease.” McKee said he felt a tailwind through much of his ride and always thought of his beloved wife. He prayed a lot, giving mostly prayers of thanks. “I never once felt alone,” he said. “I felt lifted up.” McKee traveled back to San Diego via Amtrak, arriving Aug. 8. He will be one of four honored at Alzheimer's San Diego’s Celebration of Courage & Hope on Sept. 21 at the U.S. Grant Hotel in San Diego. His donation page can be found at bit.ly/2aJvgQ7.

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.

Anderson’s privacy bill Gov. Brown signed Sen. Joel Anderson’s Senate Bill (SB) 514 into law on Friday. This bill allows applicants to indicate whether or not they want assistance in completing the Covered California application, and prohibits the applicant’s personal information from being shared with private companies if they do not want

assistance. Before this bill, Covered California shared consumers’ personal information with private companies without permission due to a security loophole, leading to thousands of Californians receiving calls from insurance telemarketers. The bill passed both the Senate and Assembly without a single no vote and was signed by Governor Brown into law today. “The right to privacy is among the most important rights we enjoy as Americans, making it important to close the loophole that allowed for private information to be given without permission,” said Anderson. Ramona is among communities in the 38th District that Anderson represents.

Working in retirement may not be so bad Many older Americans who once dreamed of lounging around the house in retirement instead are waking up each morning to get ready for work. A recent Pew Research Center study showed that the percentage of Americans 65 and over still employed is on the rise, having reached 18.8 percent as of May, up from 12.8 percent in 2000. Depending on an individual’s situation, though, working past traditional retirement age may not be such a terrible thing. “Some people say they keep working because they can’t afford to retire,” said John Eikenberry, president of Eikenberry Retirement Planning, a wealth-management firm. “Some people don’t want to retire because they love what they do.” Eikenberry, 68, falls in the latter group. His keep-at-it attitude worked in his favor after a surgery in February. “One of the people in the medical field told me that because I’m active that has helped me to rehab quickly,” Eikenberry said. “They said if I was retired, typically it takes longer to rehab.” Some advantages of working in retirement include: • Relief from financial stress. One of the biggest worries retirees have is running out of money, Eikenberry said. With people living longer, that’s a legitimate concern. Even just a part-time job that brings in a little extra cash can help alleviate some of the stress. He has clients who work just a few days a week and that works well for them. • Physical fitness. It’s no secret that,

as people age, they tend to suffer more problems with their bodies, such as joint pains. Many jobs can keep them active and moving, making for better health. • Mental fitness. A study published in the peer-reviewed journal Neurology this year found that activities that challenge your brain may help delay symptoms of dementia. “Talk to people in their 50s and 60s and you’ll see that does scare us,” Eikenberry said. “Work gives us the ability to keep our minds active.” Anyone considering working in retirement does need to be aware of the financial implications with Social Security, Eikenberry said. If you wait until your full retirement age to draw Social Security — 66 to 67 for most people these days — you can earn as much as you like. But if you claim Social Security early — which you can do starting at age 62 — earnings are limited to $15,720 annually. For every $2 you make over that amount, $1 is deducted from your Social Security. That changes beginning with the year in which you reach full retirement age. At that point, $1 is deducted for every $3 earned above a different limit. In 2016, that limit is $41,880. But the only earnings counted are those before the month in which you reach full retirement age, according to the Social Security website. Eikenberry is happy with his decision to remain on the job beyond retirement age and many of the clients he provides financial advice to find it rewarding, too. “For me, there’s nothing negative about working in retirement at all,” he said.

Things every renter should know (StatePoint) Renters may be free of some of the concerns and responsibilities of homeownership, but there are a few considerations they should make for financial security and greater peace of mind. Read Your Lease Whether you’re moving in to a new place or have been occupying your unit for some time, knowing the ins and outs of your lease is crucial. Be sure there will be no curveballs or surprises that you have not accounted for in your budget. Is your rent subject to an increase? By how much and how often? Cross-check local regulations to ensure rent increases are in accordance with the law. Read your lease to get a handle on what your responsibilities and rights are as a tenant. Get Renters Insurance Many apartment communities require renters to carry personal liability insurance to cover the property and surrounding structures as a result of damage caused by the renter. This coverage does not extend to your personal property, however. To cover your personal property, a standard renters insurance policy is recommended. Otherwise, unexpected events such as fire, theft, vandalism or other perils could mean a substantial financial loss to you. However, the small

monthly investment of renter’s insurance could save you thousands of dollars down the line. Do your research to determine what policy makes sense for you. Many insurance providers offer free online calculators to help you take inventory and determine the level of coverage you need. Perform a careful inspection Before moving into your new rental unit or signing a lease, do a careful inspection, noting any existing damage or necessary maintenance. Communicate concerns to the management company or landlord in writing. Free online checklists can guide you on what to look for and record. For example, buckling floors and water stains could indicate water damage — a condition that could lead to property damage. It’s also helpful to take photographs with a day/time stamp. Do these inspections periodically, as well as when you renew your lease. And remember to also photograph your belongings — or keep your receipts — because any insurance provider will ask for proof of ownership in the event you have to file a claim. You may not own the property, but it is still your home. Staying on top of the space in which you live can offer you greater comfort and greater peace of mind.
