BY STACEY PHILLIPS More than 35 years ago, a small group of Rancho Santa Fe philanthropists came together with a common goal: to assist those who needed financial assistance and lived outside of the community. As a result of wanting to help those less fortunate, a foundation was formed in 1981. The original name was Rancho Santa Fe Community Foundation and it was changed in 1998 to Rancho Santa Fe Foundation. Celebrating its 35th anniversary on Oct. 13, the foundation will recognize past and current board members and donors at a private event being held at Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club. “This is an opportunity for us to recognize the people who have been really instrumental in our success to date, share with them some plans for the future and have them be in a better position to go out into the community and be ambassadors with us,” said Christy Wilson, executive director of the Rancho Santa Fe Foundation. “Over the years, the Rancho Santa Fe-based organization has contributed significantly to the surrounding community and used local resources to help people and organizations within the San Diego region, nationally and globally.” This year, the foundation hit an important milestone, having raised more than $100 million in assets. Since it was established, the foundation has

By the end of the year, the goal is to reach the $60 million mark in total grants awarded locally, nationally and internationally. The foundation’s mission is to make an impact both locally and globally by connecting donors with philanthropic needs while partnering with nonprofits.

BY JOE TASH The Santa Fe Irrigation District, which provides water to residents and businesses in Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach and Fairbanks Ranch, will see new faces on its Robert five-member board of Feher directors later this year, as two incumbent directors are stepping down from their seats and will be replaced by candidates running in the Nov. 8 election. Two candidates each are running for the Div. David 1 seat, now held by Petree Greg Gruzdowich, and the Div. 2 seat, now occupied by Alan Smerican. Both incumbents opted not to seek new terms. Directors in the district are elected by division, and Gruzdowich’s division covers mostly Rancho Santa Fe, while Smerican’s is in Solana Beach. The normally low-profile agency has been in the news quite a bit over the past year or two; first, as California grappled with a severe drought, the state published figures showing that Rancho Santa Fe had the highest per capita water use in the state. Then, the district joined its fellow water agencies across the state in trying to achieve steep cuts in water use imposed by Gov. Jerry Brown and state regulators. Santa Fe’s state-mandated target was to reduce its water use by 36 percent in 2015, which it largely achieved. Last year, the district commissioned a cost-of-service study, to determine its revenue needs in the coming years and apportion those costs fairly to customers. That study led to a board vote earlier this year to raise rates by an a maximum average of 9 percent annually over the next three years; the first increase took effect June 1, while the next is slated for Jan. 1, if approved SEE WATER, A24

Girl Scouts San Diego honors RSF volunteers During its recent annual Volunteer Celebration, Girl Scouts San Diego honored two Rancho Santa Fe residents for their outstanding contributions. Recipients were nominated by their peers and selected by a panel of Girl Scout volunteers. Held at the San Diego Convention Center, the awards ceremony followed a day-long conference for volunteers. Rancho Santa Fe resident Sue Major received the Courage, Confidence and Character Award. The accolade recognizes adults who have made a significant contribution to Girl Scouts San Diego’s success through volunteer service and leadership. A former Girl Scout, Major is the founder and CEO of Major Executive Search, a global firm that places top-level professionals in technology and science positions. An accomplished businesswoman who holds several patents, she says Girl Scouting was key to building the leadership skills that empowered her to succeed in life. Camp, earning badges, camaraderie and selling the most Girl Scout cookies in her troop are among her favorite memories. Major’s passion is to encourage girls to use Girl Scouts’ STEAM programs to explore nontraditional careers in the fields of science, technology, engineering, the arts and math. A longtime supporter of Girl Scouts San Diego, Major serves on the organization’s board and fund development committee, and chairs the board development committee. She and

The couple provides other generous contributions as well. Most recently, they co-chaired Girl Scouts’ “Urban Glampout” fundraiser. In addition, Major Executive Search was the event’s main sponsor. Beth Nelson of Rancho Santa Fe received the SHARE Award, which pays tribute to individuals whose strong leadership builds support for Girl Scouts’ Share Her Annual Real Expense (SHARE) campaign. The SHARE initiative helps keep Girl Scouting available and affordable for all girls.
Nelson is the SHARE coordinator for Girl Scouts’ Solana Ranch Service Unit — a volunteer-led group supporting members in the communities of Solana Beach, Rancho Santa Fe and Del Mar. Nelson was honored for accomplishments relating to educating parents and leaders about the significance of SHARE and encouraging their participation.

SURMOUNTING OBSTACLES
Parkinson’s patients to climb Machu Picchu BY PAM KRAGEN Climbing to the remote Peruvian citadel of Machu Picchu would be a challenge for most hiking groups, but when a third of them have Parkinson’s disease, it’s an even more impressive feat. In mid-October, 30 people from all over the country — nine with Parkinson’s — will spend five days trekking to the ruins of the 15th century Incan city in the Andes Mountains. The San Diego-based group is climbing to raise money and awareness for promising stem cell research that might one day dramatically reduce the symptoms of the progressive neurological disease. Among the climbers are Poway resident Elena Andrews, 58, and Scripps Ranch residents Ron Phillips, 57, and Doug Burcomb, 63. All three have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s in the past five years. They say training for the climb with weekly group hikes has reduced their symptoms and they’re excited to help with the cutting-edge stem cell research under way at Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla. “It’s inspiring,” said Burcomb, who will be climbing in October with his wife of 30 years, Margie. “As I’m preparing for this it seems like I’m getting younger, not older.” The Machu Picchu ascent is the third mountain climb since 2011 organized by Sherrie Gould, volunteer executive director of the nonprofit Summit for Stem Cell.

Members of the Summit for Stem Cell group, many with Parkinson’s disease, on a training hike on Clevenger Canyon Trail in Ramona in July. The group is preparing to climb to Peru’s Machu Picchu in October to raise money for stem cell research on a treatment for Parkinson’s. Disorder Center, Gould works closely with Parkinson’s patients. Back in 2010, she was asked by Scripps neurologist Dr. Melissa Houser to come up with a creative way to get patients more involved in stem cell research. Gould went and talked to Scripps Research Institute director Dr. Jeanne Loring, who said that Parkinson’s is one of the diseases most likely to respond to stem cell treatment. If
Gould could come up with six Parkinson’s patients and $300,000 for research, Loring said the Institute could jump-start its work on the disease. “I went for a run at Torrey Pines and tried to figure out how to do this. The weirdest thing is it never crossed my mind that I couldn’t raise the money. It just seemed like the right thing to do,” Gould said.
But first she needed a signature event. She chose her own bucket-list dream of climbing Tanzania’s 19,341-foot Mount Kilimanjaro. On Sept. 17, 2011, she and 15 other people (3 with Parkinson’s) topped Africa’s tallest peak, and in the process they raised $350,000 in donations. “The analogy we used was ‘if we can summit the highest ceiling point in all of Africa, then we can raise the money and make this research happen,’” Gould said. The money from the climb was used to hire Dr. Andres Bratt-Leal as the new program director for Parkinson’s research at Scripps Research’s Center for Regenerative Medicine. It was also used to find and biopsy the needed patients for the study. In 2006, Japanese doctor Shinya Yamanaka made a scientific breakthrough by converting ordinary human skin cells into “pluripotent” stem cells (cells that can be converted into any type of human cell). The manufactured skin cells were not ethically compromised (like fetal stem cells) and were DNA-matched to the patient. Dr. Bratt-Leal hopes to use this technology to turn patients’ skin cells into dopamine neurons that can be transplanted in their own brains to replace those neurons lost to Parkinson’s. Patient Doug Burcomb said he’s eager to be on the ground floor of the stem cell research. He was forced to retire from his job as a corporate lawyer three years ago because of the progression of the disease. At the time he was SEE HIKE, A24

Plant With Purpose to honor active local volunteer Cindy Outlaw BY KRISTINA HOUCK It all started with a few phone calls. After traveling to Tanzania and summiting Mount Kilimanjaro in 2000, local resident Cindy Outlaw decided she wanted to give back to the children of the East African country. During her trek she learned about the dilapidated state of school in her guide’s village and the lack of opportunities for education. “I saw the needs of the children,” Outlaw said. Once she returned home, Outlaw contacted Fred Schnitzer, who built schools in Africa, as well as her alma mater Point Loma Nazarene University (PLNU). Outlaw, an avid mountain climber, met Schnitzer on a previous hike. A year later, Outlaw returned to Tanzania with a group of PLNU students and constructed a school on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro. During the three-week trip, she was struck by the malnutrition she saw in the children and the deforestation of the local rainforest. That’s when she called Plant With Purpose. The San Diego-based Christian nonprofit organization works to reverse deforestation and poverty around the world by transforming the lives of the rural poor. “I’m here in my house in Solana Beach and I’ve lived in Southern California my whole life,” said Outlaw, who has successfully summited six of the world’s seven summits — the highest points on each continent. She plans to summit the seventh, Mount Everest, in May 2018. “I really haven’t wanted for nothing,” she

To live among people who have one meal a day, it tears your heart apart, especially when it’s children.” After meeting with Executive Director Scott Sabin, Plant With Purpose’s board approved an exploratory trip in 2003, and one year later, launched its Tanzanian program. The program aims to provide long-term solutions to the root causes of
rural poverty through activities such as community-based savings groups, leadership development, reforestation and sustainable agriculture training. “It just hit my heart seeing kids who didn’t have enough to eat,” said Outlaw, who has traveled to Tanzania 14 times. “It was very fortunate the organization was here in San Diego. They are so good at what they do.” Founded in 1984, Plant With Purpose

Student completes Girl Scout Silver Award Canyon Crest Academy students BY KRISTINA HOUCK Having recently donated dozens of toiletries to victims of domestic violence, Canyon Crest Academy freshman Devin Jansen successfully completed her Girl Scout Silver Award. The Girl Scout Silver Award is the highest award a Girl Scout Cadette can earn. “Domestic violence is a huge problem in the community,” said 14-year-old Devin. “We should do whatever we can to help stop it.” In 2014, there were 16,897 domestic violence incidents reported to law enforcement in San Diego County, a 2 percent increase from the prior year, according to SANDAG. In an effort to raise awareness about domestic violence and support the victims, Devin started working on her Girl Scout Silver Award project two years ago, while she was still at Carmel Valley Middle School. As the founder of Confident Chicks, a middle school club that promoted self-confidence, she worked with the club in seventh and eighth grades to collect toiletries she would later donate to Becky’s House. More recently, Devin held a drive Aug. 24 at Sage Canyon School’s park, where she collected

shampoo, conditioner, soap, lotion and other toiletries. She promoted the drive through Nextdoor, a social network for neighborhood communities. “I was so shocked,” said Devin, who completed 50 hours of work on the project. “I got a lot of responses. A lot of people were really interested and wanted to help out.” Devin decided she would donate to Becky’s House after researching local programs for victims of domestic violence.

programs offer a safe haven for women, men and children to overcome trauma, improve their economic status, and ultimately achieve self-sufficiency. The programs include a 24-hour domestic violence hotline, an emergency shelter and multiple transitional housing communities along with supportive services. “I wanted to help people in my community,” Devin said. “I noticed an immediate demand for toiletries. Since they’re leaving in such a hurry, the women and children don’t have time to grab the necessities. I think the toiletries will help them create a healthy lifestyle.” Devin dropped off her collected donations at Becky’s House on Sept. 1. She said the estimated retail value of the donation was $300. “The feeling of helping those women and children start a better life felt really good,” Devin said. “I feel really grateful for all that I have, and I felt really lucky to be able to help these women and children.” For more about Becky’s House, visit www.ywcasandiego.org/get-help/ beckys-house.html.

RSF Foundation makes large donation to Don Diego Scholarship Foundation The Rancho Santa Fe (RSF) Foundation, a charitable giving organization renowned throughout San Diego County for impactful philanthropy that addresses an array of needs within communities, has donated the entirety of its college scholarship fund totaling in excess of $27,000 to the Don Diego Scholarship Foundation. RSF Foundation Executive Director Christy Wilson presented the check to Don Diego Foundation Chair Jon Liss at the Sept. 26 Don Diego board meeting and she was congratulated for her Foundation’s vision and generosity. “As a longtime attendee of the San Diego County Fair, I’ve been impressed with the history of Don Diego,” Wilson told the board.

Local coach Judi Carbary shares love of triathlon with kids BY KAREN BILLING In June, local triathlete and duathlete Judi Carbary, 66, placed third in her age group at the 2016 International Triathlon Union (ITU) Duathlon World Championships in Aviles, Spain. Three weeks later she was in Bend, Oregon to compete in the USA Triathlon Duathlon National Championships and placed fourth in her age group, qualifying her to compete in the 2017 ITU Multisport World Championships in Penticton, British Columbia. Carbary said the 2017 event will be exciting — it will be the first to feature a week of races in all of the events in the triathlon family, including the duathlon, triathlon, cross-triathlon (trail running and mountain biking), aquathlon (run-swim-run) and aquabike (swim-bike). As passionate as Carbary is about competing, she is even more passionate about growing the sport of triathlon. She is a USA Triathlon-certified kids’ triathlon team coach and the founder of the SoCal Youth Triathlon Series for athletes ages 7-15 years old. “I keep racing to be a role model and inspire the kids, even though it’s hard to fit in,” said Carbury, a retired pediatric and family nurse practitioner. She schedules all of her races around her team’s training schedules, meaning this year she only had two lead-up events before the championships. The June event was Carbary’s sixth World Championships but she hadn’t competed at one for 13 years.

Judi Carbary crossing the finish line of the ITU Duathlon World Championship in Spain. “I trained really hard but I was just going to do it for the fun of it, I had no idea how I’d do,” Carbary said. “My daughter came with me and she got to see me on the podium.” Carbary competed at the sprint duathlon distance: a 5K run, followed by a 20.5K bike portion and wrapped up with another 2.5K

of running. In Spain, she rented a bike although they didn’t have the race wheels they promised they would have —Carbary had to roll with it. “We were told the course was going to be flat but only the first two miles were — it was rolling hills and lots of turns,” Carbary
said. Despite the unexpected challenges, she said it was a pretty course, with the run portion taking her past parks and riverfront and the bike portion was a cool, mid-60s ride through the city. She said it was amazing to get on the podium with her proud daughter watching. After Spain, she only had 10 days to train before the Duathlon Nationals in Oregon on June 25. That course was mostly uphill and the freshly-paved road was very hot during the 1 p.m. race. “The heat was coming off the pavement like it does in Kona,” Carbary said, noting there was also very little shade on the road so during the two runs, her challenge was to keep well-hydrated. Recently she competed in the San Diego Triathlon Classic on Sept. 10 where she won her age group. “I’ve been having a good year,” said Carbary, who said she was able to overtake her age group’s leader on the last mile of the run. Carbary has one more race in her 2016 season, the Esprit de She duathlon in San Diego on Oct. 16. A triathlete and duathlete for 32 years, Carbary started out by running recreationally in college and did her first triathlon in Pennsylvania in 1985. “I didn’t know what I was doing at all,” she admits. “It didn’t start until 11 a.m. and I had heard about carbo loading so I had an all-you-can-eat breakfast.

EVERYBODY NEEDS A HOME “When I moved from La Jolla to Rancho Santa Fe I knew no one in the community. Fortunately, one of the first people I met was Janet Lawless Christ, one of RSF’s top residential real estate agents. Janet, a warm and welcoming “ambassador” for RSF, has been almost “a one-person Chamber of Commerce” for me. No matter how many different times I have gone to her when in need of a service or business, she has always had a ready answer. Over the years she has helped me find attorneys, commercial real estate agents, plumbers, handymen and the list just keeps going on! I am not sure how other newcomers to Rancho Santa Fe navigate their new community without the assistance of someone like Janet. She has been one of the best reasons that I can now call Rancho Santa Fe my home!”

Ask the 2016
A A O F C Sugeily Cervantes was living in Rancho Santa Fe with an aunt and uncle when she enrolled at MiraCosta College’s San Elijo Campus in the fall of 2014. “Two of their three kids went to MiraCosta and they just loved it,” Cervantes said. “They wanted me to have the same opportunity to go to a great college.” Cervantes, who transferred to UC Irvine and is on her way to earning a master’s degree in educational leadership, is not alone. MiraCosta College is providing an appealing option for students in some of North County’s pricier ZIP codes, and one in eight MiraCosta College students who graduated in 2015 are graduates of high schools in the southern, more affluent areas of the district. “Not all students are ready to move across the country when they graduate high school, and MiraCosta offers them a valuable alternative,” said Eric Dill, interim superintendent of the San Dieguito Union High School District. “Aside from the economics involved, students get an outstanding education across numerous course options from expert instructors in a very supportive environment.” Anthony Koutoufidis agrees. He could have attended almost any university on his list when he graduated from Torrey Pines High School in June of 2004, but the Carmel Valley resident opted for MiraCosta College. “It just made sense,” said Koutoufidis, who now works as manager overseeing clinic operations at Scripps Coastal Medical Center in Solana Beach. “I didn’t want to go into debt, and I was able to take all the classes I needed before transferring to UC San Diego.”
UC system in the fall of 2016 were for STEM majors. Koutoufidis saved thousands of dollars by taking his prerequisite courses – including biology, organic chemistry, physics and calculus – at MiraCosta College instead of UC San Diego. “They were rigorous courses,” said Koutoufidis, who earned a Bachelor of Science in Human Biology. “But you get more of a one-on-one education and all of the support you need. You’re not just a number stuck in a large class.” Cervantes made the most of her MiraCosta College experience. After enrolling at the San Elijo Campus, she became active in student government and was elected vice president of the San Elijo Campus. She graduated with an associate degree in sociology in 2014 and transferred to UC Irvine. She graduates this spring and will pursue a master’s degree in education administration. “To be honest with you, I actually liked MiraCosta College better than UC Irvine,” Cervantes said. “If I could have earned my bachelor’s degree at MiraCosta, I never would have left.” MiraCosta College last year secured the green light to offer a bachelor’s degree in the burgeoning field of biomanufacturing—the first of its kind in the nation. The first cohort of students is set to enroll in the fall of 2017. “I would recommend MiraCosta to anyone,” Cervantes said. “Why spend $40,000 a year for a school when you could get a comparable education at MiraCosta?”
MiraCosta College In fact, MiraCosta College has one of the highest transfer rates to the University of California out of all the community colleges in San Diego County, and nearly half of all MiraCosta College transfer applications to the

PREPARING STUDENTS TO TRANSFER
As the cost of attending University of California and State University schools rises, more students are starting their education at the community college level. MiraCosta College helps to ensure that students who can’t afford the high price of a university still have the opportunity to succeed in college and careers.
PREPARING STUDENTS FOR CAREERS
MiraCosta College is an essential part of the North County economy. We are a critical partner to local employers in biotech, manufacturing, and other industries that help our area and economy thrive.
SERVING OUR VETERANS
MiraCosta provides job placement, job training and counseling to approximately 1,800 Navy, Marine and other military veterans and their families each year.
COST OF MEASURE MM To continue providing a high-quality education for local students, the MiraCosta Community College District has placed MEASURE MM, a local facilities bond measure, on the ballot this November. The measure may generate $455 million to upgrade our college and will cost approximately $14.99 per $100,000 of assessed value (not market value) per year.
THE MEASURE WOULD PROVIDE LOCALLY-CONTROLLED FUNDING TO: Improve the Veterans Center to provide job training, job placement, counseling and support services Upgrade career training facilities for science, health care, technology and skilled trades Update instructional technology for improved student learning in core subjects like math, science and technology Improve access for students with disabilities %#*-!) +) )#*3-$# 3#-41 )++"(/ 2+),.+&' 0++)( and restrooms, old rusty plumbing and faulty electrical systems Update science centers and labs to allow for state-of-the-art courses in biology, chemistry and physical sciences

Fire Season Is Now All Year Long - Protect Your Home
Jim Moseley, the founder and CEO of Sun FireDefense, is going global. His company recently was awarded a contract to support new high-rise development in Dubai. But residents of the North County area of San Diego can also take advantage of his products’ technology developed for the NASA Space Shuttle and expanded to protect homes from being destroyed by fire. Moseley’s fire-protection applications – including a clear spray and window coverings – earned him the 2014 Patrick Soon-Shiong Los Angeles Business Journal’s Innovator of the Year award. “We are trying to get it out to as many homes as we can,” Moseley said. Question: Is it true that 50 percent of homes that burn to the ground aren’t even in the direct path of a fire? Jim Moseley: Yes, the burning embers travel miles beyond the actual fire and even with A-rated shingles and tiles that are difficult to ignite, the embers build enough heat on the roof to transfer through to the plywood underneath the roof to burn it down. Q: How can your product help? Can you explain the process a homeowner goes through to properly treat their home with your products? JM: Just by merely spraying the plywood or decking underneath the roof and under the eves, this greatly reduces the risk of this happening when applied by our licensed contractors. Also, by installing our SPF3000 window coverings, it will keep the radiant heat from a wildland fire from blowing out the windows and the
fire burning the home down from the inside out. Q: What is the science behind your product – basically, how does it work? JM: We have several ingredients which include alumina, zirconia and inconnel. These are all aerospace components that were used on both the Space Shuttle and the MARS project. These properties keep oxygen out of the wood in a way that never gives the fire a chance to ignite. You can hold a 5000F map gas torch directly on a piece of SPF3000-treated wood for five minutes without it catching fire. This is three times the temperature of a house fire. Q: What other products are there like yours? What sets yours apart? JM: Really this is the only long-term solution, meaning seven to 10 years, guaranteed for five years. The only other alternatives are gels and foams that have to be applied just before the fire or they dry up and become ineffective. The problem with that is two-fold: Getting to the house while the fire is in close proximity as well as the waste of money if the house is gelled or foamed and the fire never reaches the house. Q: How much does it cost to treat a home with your spray product? JM: It costs $3 to $4 per square foot of area treated not including the labor which usually runs between 50 cents to $1 per square foot. On older shake wood homes we recommend two coats because the extra absorption is so important.
Cover Your Asset Fire Season is Now All Year Long - Protect your Home Your home is your most important asset, so don’t let it go up in flames. Cover it with safe and effective flame retardant.
What Are The Advantages? • Exterior Application lasts for 5-7 years. • Will not alter the structural integrity of wood. • User friendly, dries clear, and can be easily applied by spraying, immersing, brushing, or rolling. • Contains mold/mildew inhibitors – effective against black mold
Sun FireDefense – a leading provider of Fire Prevention and Protection Solutions
OUR FOCUS IS TO DELIVER ADVANCED FIRE PROTECTION TECHNOLOGY using “Space Shuttle technology transfer” that affords the benefits of high-temperature fire-protection and thermal-insulation developments from aerospace-grade Ceramic Fiber materials used by NASA.
Fire Resistant & Fire Retardant Clear Spray Coating protects your HOME & ASSETS.
SPF3000 is a post-treatment, interior/exterior fire retardant through a silicone ceramic coating that provides insulation and reflects heat up to 30000 F. It is easily applied and provides fire protection to exterior and interior woods such as: porous woods, cedar shake shingles, open-air roof systems, decking, and structural lumber.

ast week’s column ended with the assertion that the San Dieguito Union High School District, with its just announced $4 million surplus, should stop asking parents for money for basic classroom and program essentials that the district should be financing. Two examples that the district has not fully funded were offered: an $1,800 lunch sunshade at La Costa Canyon High School and the science lab at Diegueno Middle School. Since then, several more parents have come forward with other examples of projects and programs in the academic arena left to parents and foundations to fund. One of the most frustrating is the lack of financial support for music programs. One San Dieguito Academy parent said the amount of time, money and effort parents donate to raise funds to support music is considerable.
The parents, she said, are very enthusiastic about the program. “We have so many people volunteering to help and to donate funds,” she said. “It’s really a great supportive group.” Parents are asked to contribute $300 each year to meet the budget, which includes raising money to pay for coaches and to purchase and repair instruments. The group works hard on events like Cabaret night to find ways to save even $100 to cover intermission snacks. But there is growing resentment. Years ago, she said the district paid for music coaches at SDA to work with individual brass, woodwind and percussion sections. At Oak Crest Middle School, she said the music coaches worked with students who didn’t know how to play an instrument at all. “This is crucial for the program,” said the parent, who asked to remain anonymous.
The district no longer pays for music coaches, she said, because the district “ran out of money.” The district, she said, has the money back now, and the program could use its financial help. At La Costa Canyon, home of the district’s only marching band, fundraisers are held throughout the year and each family is asked to donate $350. “The music program has always had inadequate support from the district,” another parent told me, saying the band is down to about 34 musicians. San Marcos High, the Poway schools and Carlsbad High have huge marching bands, she said. “There aren’t any big demographic differences between these districts that account for it, so I have to put it down to our district’s policies.” Music education has been shown to improve academic and social development, she said, adding, “The evidence is out there, but our district turns a blind eye to it.” Dedicated parents who give so much of themselves to support their children’s education shouldn’t have to work so hard to raise money for things the district used to pay for and should be funding. Danica Edelbrock, a parent at SDA, said teachers asked parents at Back-to-School Night for donations for petty classroom supplies, like Kleenex. And she said the science department asked for cash to buy
lab supplies. “Teachers shouldn’t have to worry about supplies,” she said. “In our district they should have the funds to buy what they need before the year even starts.” She said parents donate anyway, because they care about the quality of their children’s education. “I feel bad for the teachers having to ask for money and supplies in our wealthy district,” she said. Foundations The four comprehensive high schools all have nonprofit foundations which raise hundreds of thousands of dollars each year for academic and extra-curricular programs. According to its website, Canyon Crest Academy Foundation donations pay for programs and services that are more than “extra”: books for the media center, classroom computers and software, the world language lab, guest artists, facility upgrades for the theater and gym, pool rental, sheet music, costumes, lab equipment, science supplies, and more. LCC foundation’s newsletter says tens of thousands of dollars have been raised to fund after-school tutoring, a speaker series, campus beautification projects, two new classes, a 3-D printer for the engineering department, $10,000 for science supplies, $5,000 for photography classes, and more SEE SUTTON, A23

‘Harvey’ will make you laugh, think and more The following was submitted as a letter/review about the Pulitzer Prize-winning play “Harvey” to be presented at the Village Church Community Theater Oct. 14-16. See page B9 for more on the upcoming production. “Harvey,” is a play about a man, Elwood Dowd, who is a daily drinker and hears, sees and talks to a “big white rabbit,” Harvey. What is this? Is this alcoholic hallucinosis? Rare but related to chronic alcohol abuse, usually after acute abuse, almost always only auditory hallucinations, but the clinical picture can become chronic in chronic alcohol abuse. Dowd’s clinical picture does not fit with schizophrenia (onset in young adulthood, abnormal social behavior, unclear and confused thinking, with reduced social engagement and mainly auditory hallucinations). It also is not manic depressive disease. It could be a fixed delusional state , but he has no evidence of dementia. Harvey is a
REVIEW “pooka,” a Celtic, mischievous Irish fairy (a magical agent if folklore) that is usually feared, but Harvey has become a friendly (sometime drinking buddy) companion of Elwood Dowd’s. Elwood and Harvey have many enjoyable, funny experiences with Elwood’s family and friends but experience a developing crisis. Written by Mary Chase in 1944 and using that time period, in a Midwestern town, uses often the 1940s language style( not four-letter words) with “girl,” “By God” and “many’s a time” to give it a true ’40s and ’50s sound. Considered by most as a comedy, however, in 1944 Chase won the Pulitzer Prize in drama for the play and it ran on Broadway for four years. This play is funny, enjoyable and it asks the serious questions of “who are we, do we fit in and where, and if we don’t what can happen to us.” Jimmy Stewart and Josephine Hull (who
won an Academy Award ) starred in the film. Elwood’s friends and family are, like our society today, confronted with dealing with someone or ones who are or maybe different. Then, as now, what happens to all involved. Do others isolate, discredit, discount, take advantage of, one or some who are marked as tainted, undesirable, and look and/or act differently or unusual. These questions were also recently explored in the play at the La Jolla Playhouse “ Tiger Style.” These questions and concerns are and have been an “issue” for society, past and present. Harvey, however, best known as a comedy, which it is a great one, looks at this very concerning, complicated problem carefully. Elwood with Harvey, generally gets along quite well in society. He “has many friends, in many places,” but his loving sister Veta (living with Elwood in his home) is hampered socially by being associated with the two of them and his niece (who should be out
making her own way) wants to get a hold of Elwood’s inherited money (house) to give her sheltered life a little more affluence. In this play, there is a hospital patient misidentification, a pompous, unfulfilled psychiatrist, a loyal yet dull orderly, and a family (probably more than just a friend to Veta) judge, who is in a small town social status battle with the psychiatrist, and who wants all this “hysteria” to come to an end. All of these characters supported by other great roles (Dr. Sanderson, nurse Kelly, friend Ethel, a cab driver and the psychiatrist’s wife), and directed by Twyla Arant, with help from Terri and Nick and a very good set designer. Come see it at the Village church. It will make you laugh, feel sad and make you think. Theater is looking at the world and life through a window. Dee Silver M.D. Rancho Santa Fe

The Veterans Independent Project seeks to help homeless veterans and their families.
Golf outing supports veterans’ families Oct. 29 Local resident Kenneth Simone is hosting the 2016 Veterans Independent Project Golf Outing on Saturday, Oct. 29 at the Admiral Baker Golf Course in San Diego. The outing will help support homeless veterans and their families in the greater San Diego area. The outing will begin at 8:30 a.m. in a four-person scramble format. There will be prizes for closest to the pin and longest drive, a putting contest, raffle and much more. Lunch, beverages, golf and cart are all included in the $150 per golfer contribution. The Veterans Independence Project was founded by Simone’s friend Richard Valero. Valero is a U.S. Navy veteran and a SEAL who started the 501c3 charity to help homeless veterans find housing, educational opportunities and employment. The Oct. 29 outing is donating funds to the Toussaint Academy, a part of Father Joe's Village, to help homeless teens and young
FROM SUTTON, A22 than $35,000 for various academic departments. SDA’s foundation raised money in 2013-2014 for the following: $68,000 for the robotics dept., $27,000 for speech and debate, $25,000 for materials and supplies for classrooms, $15,000 for writing tutoring, $12,500 for Chromebooks for the computer lab, $10,000 for music, and much more. At Torrey Pines High School, its foundation, according its most recent newsletter, hopes to raise $400,000 this year to support engineering, business and accounting, culinary arts, computer science, biotech and television production programs – as well as to buy computers, printers, cameras, and specific classroom essentials for teachers. Money also goes for programs that address student support, connectedness and well-being. These are just some examples of
adults find educational opportunities outside of the normal school channels. These teens, some of which are children of veterans, represent the best chance to break the cycle of homelessness, Simone said. “They are being afforded opportunities on the USS Midway and through other organizations to learn about the world around them and the opportunities they have with education,” Simone said. “Making these kids more aware of what is possible for them and giving them alternative ways to solve problems is a meaningful pursuit.” Deacon James Vargas from Father Joe's Village will be speaking at the luncheon following the golf tournament at 1:30 p.m. To attend the luncheon only is a $60 contribution.

the kinds of programs supported by parents – not to mention the athletic programs that rely on parent donations for coaches, uniforms and supplies. Athletic departments – where pay-to-play is still the name of the game – are the worst violators of relentless badgering for cash, whether approaching parents directly or by asking parents and students, unbelievably, to provide names and email addresses of other family members and friends to be solicited by outside firms. This strong-arm approach that borders on intimidation is common practice with high school sports teams throughout the district. One parent told me she is convinced her son won’t play if she doesn’t pay the “suggested” fee or if she protests publicly. Even though their grievances are valid, few parents are willing to put their names to their complaints for fear their children will suffer retribution by coaches or teachers.

Legitimate frustration Teachers should not have to beg parents for money, and parents should not have to fund classroom essentials like notebooks, microscopes, musical instruments, books and computers. Parents have been beyond generous in donating to their schools on behalf of students, and San Dieguito has benefited enormously from their generosity. But when the district comes out of a deep recession and finds itself with extra cash, teacher raises are important but so is district funding for academic needs. If it’s true that there’s now a $4 million surplus, as Interim Superintendent Eric Dill said at the last school board meeting, imagine what could be done with just one-fourth of that amount. One million dollars would go a long way to funding some of these programs and classroom supplies that parents were willing to pay for during the recession. According to a recent story in
this newspaper, SDUHSD Chief Financial Officer Delores Perley said the district in 2015-2016 realized $1.5 million in savings on books and supplies. It feels wrong for the district to congratulate itself for saving so much money on supplies while parents are being asked to pay for these items. The reportedly under-funded Pathways programs (classes like biotech or engineering that lead to a path of study) could also use a little more (a lot more?) district help. “As we’ve reconfigured our previous CTE [Career and Technical Education] programs into career pathways, we’ve had to divert more funding to start-up costs, like equipment and supplies that we didn’t need before, and for teacher training to further develop the additional sequences,” Dill said. “We are investing more this year than we did last year.” Dill said the district spent about $2.1 million last year on CTE, and
this year just under $2.3 million is budgeted. Of that $2.3 million, just over $1.8 million – or about 80 percent – is for salaries and benefits, and about $326,500 is for books and supplies. Based on reports from parents and foundation wish lists, apparently that $326,500 is not nearly enough. Before granting the enormous 12.5-percent salary raises, perhaps consideration could first have been given to more funding for the programs and projects that foundations and parents are being asked to pay for. There is legitimate frustration over the relentless requests for money when the narrative from the district is that it enjoys a healthy fiscal position. Parents deserve some relief, and it’s not too late for the district to oblige. Sr. Education Writer Marsha Sutton can be reached at suttonmarsha@gmail.com.

years, said that funds are allocated to organizations that have the most critical need in the community. One of the foundation’s primary areas of focus is the military program, The Patriots Connection. It was established by the foundation nine years ago during the height of the Iraq War. “We identified a need in San Diego for an organization to be a resource for donors in the community,” said Wilson. “We were seeing so many men and women coming back from the war with mental and physical issues and local families whose loved ones did not return at all. We knew there was much to be done.” Eventually, the foundation set up a San Diego online “directory” listing local nonprofit programs that best serve active duty military and veterans. “If a donor gives a dollar to those organizations, you can be sure that most of that dollar actually goes to the clients they are serving — the people who need their services,” she said. The foundation also started North County Senior Connections, now in its third year. “We identified a fairly significant population of seniors in North San Diego County who live along the highway 78 corridor,” said Wilson. “They are vulnerable in that they don’t necessarily live below the poverty line but they live on very limited incomes. Many of them live in virtual isolation.” In response, the foundation and its partner organizations — Interfaith Community Services and Dreams for Change — coordinate the Thyme Together food truck to visit five different locations each week in Oceanside, San Marcos and Vista. Seniors pay $2 and come together to eat a healthy meal with others and share in a program which might include music, physical activity or a presentation. “It’s not only enhancing their nutritional habits, but also the socialization aspects of their lives,” said Wilson. “They really look forward to these meals.” The foundation has also partnered with the Jacobs & Cushman San Diego Food Bank to provide seniors with free produce they can enjoy throughout the week. “We set out to

The Kilimanjaro quest funded only the first phase of the project, so in 2012 Gould went looking for another mountain to climb. For inspiration, she asked Carolynne Arens of Vista. Carolynne and her husband, Brad, were among the first to sign up for Kilimanjaro and she couldn’t wait for another adventure. Brad Arens, 62, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s 14 years ago. An avid outdoorsman, hiker and traveler, he was working as a chiropractor when he began suffering symptoms of the disease.

It’s better when we all come together, identify a need and address that issue in the community.” Since the program was first established, nearly 12,000 meals have been served to more than 1,100 unique individuals. Other programs initiated by the foundation include the Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund, which has given nearly $3 million in grants throughout San Diego; the Village Viewpoints speakers’ series at the Village Church; and VisionNow, a donor-initiated program. One of the future community initiatives the foundation has become involved with is working with the Committee on the Natural Environment (CONE), a standing committee of the Rancho Santa Fe Association. “Our environment is changing and we need to be very aware of what those changes are, what they are caused by and how we can hopefully mitigate that in the future,” said

At Carolynne’s suggestion, Gould organized the next Summit for Stem Cell climb to the Khumbu Valley base camp of Mount Everest in Nepal, at 17,300 feet. The arduous, two-week trek was longer, harder and more expensive to organize, but nine people (three with Parkinson’s) finished the climb in 2013. As word of the foundation grew, donations began to pour in from around the country. To date, Summit for Stem Cell has raised nearly $5 million, including a $2 million state grant. Gould said that with FDA approval, Dr. Bratt-Leal hopes to transplant 10 patients with the pluripotent stem cells in early 2018. Patient Ron Phillips said the attraction of Machu Picchu was a big draw for him to sign up to climb this fall (each hiker must raise a minimum of $2,000), but he is also

She said there are several ways for individuals to make a difference at the foundation, whether it’s through a fund created in honor of a family member, a donor advised fund, an endowment for a specific nonprofit agency or contributing to the Community Impact Fund, which allows donors to give collectively and make a significant impact on the community and region. “We are trying to work with our donors and local residents who have the means to mobilize discretionary dollars to help us address the issues that affect the areas around the San Diego region,” said Wilson. “We want them to realize that we understand many of these issues and are an important resource about the needs of the community and the organizations that are really doing the work that needs to be done.” For more information, contact Executive Director Christy Wilson at the Rancho Santa Fe Foundation (858) 756-6557 or visit www.rsffoundation.org.
eager to fund the research. Phillips, who was an avid biker and climber before he became ill, said he struggled for months with troubling symptoms, like a right hand tremor, before he was finally diagnosed four years ago. “It was good to finally know what it was, but on the other hand, it’s something nobody wants to have,” he said. To prepare for this fall’s climb, Phillips gets up at 5 a.m. three days a week for hikes with his training buddies Elena Andrews and Carolynne Arens, who’s climbing this year not with her husband or daughter, but with her 28-year-old son, Chris. All three say they’ve formed a lifelong friendship from the experience. Andrews, who works in the floral department at the Rancho Bernardo Inn, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s five years ago after suffering a year-long bout with depression and noticing she was tripping when she walked and had weakness on her left side.

While at the registrar’s office, he did some research and found out that a seat on the Santa Fe Irrigation District board was up for election this year. “Maybe the stars were lining up and it was my time to do my civic duty,” said Feher. “So I threw my hat in the ring.” Feher and his wife, Lisa Margolin-Feher, who runs a public relations and marketing agency, have one daughter, who is studying political science at UC Berkeley and wants to run for public office one day. “Proudly I told my daughter I’m following in her future footsteps,” Feher said. One of his priorities if elected is helping the district maintain and improve its infrastructure, the treatment plants, pumps and pipelines and other facilities used to bring water to its customers. “From what I can tell, they’ve done a fantastic job of it. I’d like to continue that SEE WATER, A25
symptoms, she began fitness training and boxing. And when she heard last spring about the Machu Picchu climb, she was one of the first to sign up. She will be climbing with her 22-year-old daughter, Tess. “The training, the hiking, the boxing, they’ve all been really helpful keeping me active so Parkinson’s doesn’t get the best of me,” Andrews said. Hiker Mike Abrams of San Diego has already raised $4,200 in donations for the cause. In his online fundraising campaign, he describes his battle with Parkinson’s as a struggle against increasingly challenging symptoms. “The other day I had trouble getting the front-door key into the lock; sometimes I drive around in circles because I can’t decide which direction to go; typing and texting sometimes take great willpower,” he wrote. The majority of the climbers next month are from San Diego, though some are traveling from as far as Georgia to participate. Jim and
MaryAnne Slegers of Nampa, Idaho, have joined the climb and have been trained with the group on some weekend hikes around Southern California. The five-day Machu Picchu climb, on the Salkantay portion of the Inca Trail, is less strenuous than the last two Summit climbs. The 28-mile hike includes crossing over a 15,000-foot peak on the second day of the journey. Gould said reaching the famed city of Machu Picchu will be an achievement, but it’s the training — which began with weekly group hikes in April — that’s the real healer. Hikes that took the patients six hours last spring are now being finished in four, and symptoms are waning. “As a clinician, it’s almost miraculous to watch people with Parkinson’s disease get better,” Gould said. “It’s hugely inspiring to see them growing stronger every day. I think it’s crazy great.” – Pam Kragen is a writer for The San Diego Union-Tribune
www.rsfreview.com FROM WATER, A24 legacy,” said Feher, who in addition to being a real estate broker is a licensed contractor. He’s also interested in developing the district’s capacity to provide reclaimed water to its customers. Currently, Santa Fe provides reclaimed or recycled water for landscape irrigation to some customers in Solana Beach, and the district is working on a proposal to bring recycled water to the Rancho Santa Fe golf course. Feher said he would like to learn more about reclaimed water and solve related problems, such as the technical issue of removing salt from water to make it suitable for turf irrigation. “I’m fascinated with trying to make economic sense out of reclaimed water projects as a method of conservation,” he said. Another area of interest, he said, would be expanding the district’s public outreach and education efforts, which would be bolstered by his work with his wife on public relations projects. “It’s my passion for solving problems and improving the way things are done that makes me believe I can contribute greatly to the work of the board,” Feher said.
David Petree
David Petree’s two sons, Greg and Matt, recently joined him in working for the company he founded in 1984, which builds, owns and operates retirement communities and medical office buildings, and is based in Solana Beach, where the family has lived for some 40 years. (His daughter, Jennifer, lives in Switzerland with her family.) Now that his sons are involved in the family business, Petree said, that will free up some of his time for other activities, such as serving as a director with the Santa Fe
FROM TRIATHLETE, A8 side-stroke, I didn’t know how to swim and it was a rollercoaster bike course, I was scared to death. But I did really well and it hooked me.” Carbary said she continued on, teaching herself how to swim. Biking for a long time was her strength but now she is finding that she is running faster than many in her age group. “I’m self-motivated and I do it because it’s fun to train and race with your friends,” said Carbary, who has made many lifelong friends on Team USA. Eventually she became certified by USA Triathlon as a youth and junior coach because she felt like she had something to offer to others. When Carbary moved to San Diego from Maryland in 2009, she discovered there weren’t many kids triathlon programs here so she started the SoCal Youth Triathlon series in 2012. With her triathlon team, Carbary’s main focus is for the kids to have fun, as well as work on endurance and develop their skills. “Kids really like being with their friends, they don’t even think of it as training,” Carbary said. With the team she hosts clinics throughout the year where kids learn the basics of the sport and can be motivated to want to train for a race. The series includes age-specific distances at high-quality, USA Triathlon-sanctioned events like the Mission Beach Triathlon — for example, the “Itsy Bitsy” distance for

Irrigation District if he is elected in November. Petree, 71, is a military veteran, with a background in mechanical engineering as well as public health. His father was the director of a water utility in Illinois. All of that experience and knowledge, Petree said, makes him a good fit for the Santa Fe board. “I think I have a combination of business acumen and financial acumen and the (knowledge of) technical aspects that go into water distribution systems,” Petree said. One area of interest if elected, Petree said, will be looking into new sources of supply for the region, to complement conservation measures. That approach would ease the necessity for Draconian cutbacks in water use, he said. “I don’t want to become Arizona, I don’t like the cactus and stones,” Petree said. “We can keep California green and looking nice.” As an example, Petree said, in a project that his company, AmeriCare Health & Retirement, Inc., is building in Rancho Bernardo, “gray” water from sinks and washing machines will be collected, filtered and used for landscape irrigation. That will reduce consumption of potable water and sewer discharge. Both residents and businesses are looking at alternative sources and uses of water due to the rising cost of water as a commodity, he said. Petree and his wife, Mary Ann, a retired teacher, want to help improve their community, he said. “We have an interest in seeing the best things happen for Solana Beach and Rancho Santa Fe, this whole area,” he said. “My commitment to the community and background lends itself to being a good solid board member and making good decisions.” 7-10 year olds is 100 meters swimming, a two-mile bike ride and a .75 mile run. Before every race in the series there is a pre-race clinic so kids can see the course, learn the rules and practice transitions so they feel confident and are safe on race day. Her series is sponsored by Road Runner Sports, which provides awards and discounts for participants. Carbary is also very grateful for her local sponsors such as Clif Kids, Jimbo’s…Naturally and Nytro Multisports in Encinitas, which provides the team members with special race kits and gear belts. The team proudly competes in bright neon green uniforms. From April to September, the team has bike-run or track strength practices after school and swim-bike-run workouts on Sundays. The kids train for running and biking on the SR-56 path and do their swimming at Mission Bay so they can adjust to the open water. Carbary said she has had four new kids join the team in the last two weeks and said now is a great time to join — the SoCal Youth Triathlon Trick or Tri race is coming up on Oct. 29 in Irwindale and from October to March the team will have coached practices on Sundays. Additionally, nearly every month Road Runner Sports hosts free, fun, family events and clinics. “It’s been nearly five years already which is unbelievable,” Carbary said of her series and team. “The kids are so much fun and the parents are so great and encouraging.” To learn more, visit triuscoaching.com and visit the San Diego Youth Team page.

Santa Fe Christian Schools alumna releases her first children’s book BY KRISTINA HOUCK Having grown up in Carlsbad, Megan L. Nelson spent most of her childhood days playing outside in the California sun. When it did rain, however, she still played outdoors. “I used to play outside in the sun or the rain with my brother all the time,” said Nelson, who attended Santa Fe Christian Schools in Solana Beach. Inspired by her childhood memories of playing in the rain, Nelson wrote “Mae and Jane in the Rain,” a children’s book about a little girl named Mae who prefers to play in the sunshine. Whenever it gets cloudy, Mae goes inside. It’s not until she meets Jane, who enjoys playing on days of sunshine and days of gray, that Mae discovers even rainy days can be special. “It’s simple and sweet,” Nelson said. “I just wanted to encourage kids to get outside and play.” Published by Tate Publishing, “Mae and Jane in the Rain” is Nelson’s first book. The rhyming picture book is geared for 3- to 5-year-olds. It promotes playtime and the value of friendship.

"Mae and Jane in the Rain"
Megan L. Nelson
“I always liked writing,” Nelson said. “I wanted to write a rhyming story and this came back to my childhood, playing in the rain. Rain was always really special growing up in Carlsbad because it didn’t happen all that much.” Nelson has wanted to write a book since she was an elementary school student. After graduating from Santa Fe Christian Schools, Nelson went on to study journalism at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. She currently works in real estate. “I went for it,” Nelson said about publishing her first book. “I never wanted to be
that person that looked back and didn’t go after my dreams.” Written while Nelson was in college, “Mae and Jane in the Rain” was released at the end of August. The book is available on Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com. Nelson has already written her second book, “The Perfect Petal Set.” Expected to be released early 2017, the children’s book is currently in illustration. “It’s still kind of surreal,” Nelson said. “It’s something I’ve wanted to do for a very long time. Now it’s all happening.”

Foster students receive ‘Back-To-School’ welcome from Friends of San Pasqual Academy For most teenagers, the beginning of another school year marks the end of summer and is not a day many look forward to with eagerness. Members of Friends of San Pasqual Academy made starting school fun for the foster teens of San Pasqual Academy with their “Back-To-School” event, held on the campus of San Pasqual Academy. According to Teri Summerhays, board member of Friends of San Pasqual Academy, “ The students call this day “Shop ‘Til You Drop Day,” since many items such as school supplies, back-packs, shoes, tee shirts, socks, hygiene items, clothing and more have been collected and donated to our foster students by numerous, caring individuals. These foster teens look forward to this event and are in awe of what everyone has provided for them. They greatly appreciate not just the ‘shopping selection process,’ but the presence of the wonderful volunteers that make this event happen.” Upon entering the auditorium, each student was greeted by Lynn Saviar and Andrea Reynolds and given a shopping bag. Road Runner Sports, for the eighth consecutive year, donated 125 pairs of brand new
athletic shoes, through Catherine Gotfredson. The students enjoyed picking out their quality shoes that had been selected by Michael and Fiona Gotfredson, owners of Road Runner Sports. The auditorium was filled with wonderful items that had been collected, donated or created for the students of San Pasqual Academy by many generous individuals. Other donors that made Shop’Til You Drop a wonderful experience for the foster teens of San Pasqual Academy were National Charity League members, who collected lots of very useful and important school supplies. Teri Summerhays was coordinator of this collection. Friends of San Pasqual Academy members purchased athletic shorts, tee shirts and hygiene items for all the kids. Socks, shoes, purses, clothing and more were also donated. This event was a great success and the students loved “shopping” for their school supplies and selecting their clothes. Thank you to the wonderful volunteers, which included Shelby Strong, Jennifer Dunn, Pia Jensen, Stacy Snyder, Lynn Saviar, Gayle Valentino, Kathy Lathrum, Teri Summerhays, Dagmar

The students greatly appreciated these individuals taking the time to help them shop and treasured their time with them. The relationships that have been developed between the foster teens and the volunteers is one of respect and caring. Thank you to the many supporters of Friends of San Pasqual Academy who have created these unique, memorable experiences. According to Kathy Lathrum, board member of Friends of San Pasqual Academy, “We want to thank the many wonderful individuals for
making this event so successful and memorable for all our foster teens. These kids, for the most part, do not have anyone purchasing school supplies or clothing items for them to begin the school year. We do this for our own children and it is great to see so many caring people do this same thing for these wonderful foster teens.” According to Dagmar Helgager, “It was overwhelming to see the quantity of items donated out of kindness and generosity to students of San Pasqual Academy. These foster teens are always so amazed of the caring and support they receive from this community and want to convey
their sincere feeling of gratitude and say ‘thank you’ for caring so much about them. They really do feel our support and appreciate the time and effort of all our volunteers. We certainly made this school year start off with an event they will remember. Thank you for making this such a success!” Friends of San Pasqual Academy is a nonprofit 501 (c) (3) organization that supports the foster teens of San Pasqual Academy. Any questions, please contact (858) 759-3298 or visit www.friendsofsanpasqual academy.org for more information. Donations can be sent to P.O. Box 8202, Rancho Santa Fe, CA 92067.

Satori Designs sets up shop in Solana Beach
A
fter more than 20 years in business, Satori Designs has finally found a home in Solana Beach. Located in the heart of Cedros Design District, the shop features an eclectic collection of women’s clothing and accessories in collaboration with local and international designers. “This is my very first brick and mortar store,” said owner Roya Parviz. Inspired by art, music, travel and tradition, Satori Designs offers an array of apparel and accessories from around the world. Among a variety of other pieces, the shop features a Barcelona-based clothing line called Desigual and another exclusive line from France called Rene Derhy. Much of the jewelry, shawls and other accessories come from local designers Parviz has personally worked with over the years. There is also a section for home décor with wall art, other decorations and more. “I’m always on the lookout for something different,” Parviz said.
Born in Iran, Parviz’s family came to San Diego following the Iranian Revolution. As a young girl, Parviz was exposed to the fashion industry by her mother, who studied fashion design in Austria. Parviz went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in economics with a minor in visual arts from UC San Diego. After an unfulfilling year in banking, she followed her mother’s footsteps and went on to study fashion design at the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandizing in Los Angeles, where she lived and worked in the fashion industry for seven years. Parviz started a wholesale business called Satori Designs in 1994. Her business has been a part of co-ops since she returned to San Diego a few years later. She got her start in Solana Beach at Leaping Lotus. Also on Cedros Avenue, the store has more than 120 merchants in its 21,000-square-foot marketplace. Parviz later brought her business to Pangaea Outpost’s Pacific Beach and Del Mar locations.
KRISTINA HOUCK
Roya Parviz When Pangaea Outpost closed its store at Flower Hill Promenade, Parviz decided to open her own shop. After more than two decades in business, she opened her very first boutique in July at 146 South Cedros Avenue. “I was forced to look for something, which was a blessing in
disguise,” Parviz said. “I never thought I could do it on my own.” Having become a staple in the greater San Diego fashion community since the late 1990s, Parviz often gives back to the community through her business. Satori Designs, she said, has participated in a number of charity
fashion shows and fundraising events for local charities and foundations, including St. Madeleine Sophie's Center, Epilepsy Foundation, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and others. “I’ve been doing that for years,” Parviz said. “It just really feels good to give that kind of a feeling in the community.” Whether working with charities or with clients in her boutique, Parviz said she most enjoys getting to know people in the community. With established customers in Del Mar, Solana Beach and neighboring communities, she has already seen a lot of familiar faces as well as new ones at Satori Designs. “I love the creative part just as much as I love the people part,” Parviz said. “I’m not really in it to make a quick sale; I’m in it for a long-term relationship.” For more information about Satori Designs, call 619-708-9357 or visit satori-designs.com. – Business spotlights are developed through this newspaper's advertising department in support of our advertisers.

Author Q&A: Time travel, history and fiction – writing second shift BY ANTOINETTE KURITZ AND JARED KURITZ Writers come from all walks of life, and most of them write their first five books second shift, still holding down their day jobs while building a following. And while about 82 percent of Americans say they have a book in them, only a small percentage of them ever actually finish a book, much less bring it to publication. Today we talk with local dentist and U.S. Navy Captain (Ret.) Allan (A.K.) Patch about his new series, about history, about time travel – and about how, with a thriving practice, he has managed to write. Meet Patch, author of “Delphi’s Chosen,” at a Discussion & Signing at Warwick’s in La Jolla, Thursday, Oct. 6, at 7:30 p.m. Your books have a strong historical component. What role do you feel history plays in our lives? The old cliché, history repeats itself, is a truism. To understand where we are – and where we are headed – as a society, it is important to understand what came before. When we fail to do this, we operate both individually and as a society at a disadvantage. Like those of Diana Gabaldon, your novels involve

time travel. To what end? Time travel is a literary device which allows for wonderful tension within the story’s romantic relationship. As a writer it allows me to separate my characters’ realities; put them in jeopardy without having each other to turn to; throw scenarios at them that test their courage and character and loyalty to the relationship – all while taking the reader along on their ride. And just as importantly, it allows me to juxtapose the past and present and show how history informs our present day. Why do you set your time travel in ancient Greece? First, there is so much we can learn from Greek history – their triumphs and disasters. You could say they are like our distant grandparents and their experiences will likely predict ours. Second, doing so allows me to bring in the machinations of the Greek gods, in particular Apollo. You are penning a series. What are the benefits and drawbacks of doing so? In writing a series, I have my main characters in place. I know what the over-arching story line is. And I get the space – in this case word count – to fully develop both through several books. What
COURTESY
Author A.K. (Allan) Patch is sometimes difficult is keeping track of details. I am now editing book three, and it was amazing how many times I had to go back to book one and two to make sure I had prior details correct. How well do you know your main characters at this point? Very well – after all, I am about to begin book four. However, for us writers, our characters are living, breathing beings, and as such, they evolve – sometimes surprisingly. So, while I have my story line, and I think I know where my characters will go and
how they will react and respond to circumstances, sometimes they surprise me. You run a full-time plus dental practice. When do you find the time to write? Like most writers getting started, I write second shift. I write plot in my mind while running or swimming laps in a pool. Sadly, I have not mastered dictation underwater just yet. But kidding aside, when a writer has a story to tell, we find the time to put it down on paper. What have you found most

helpful to your writing process? First, the support of my family. Second, immersing myself with other writers in writing groups and at writers’ conferences – and having the feedback and support they afford me. What advice do you give to aspiring authors? I give several bits of advice. First, make the time and space in your life to write. Second, join a great writers group; not only will you get regular feedback on your work along with some much-needed socialization, being in a writers group will mean regular deadlines – a certain number of pages between meetings – which keep you on track and accountable. Third, find a good writers conference that covers the art, craft, and business of writing. Because make no mistake, you will need to understand the business. And finally, hear what others have to say about your work, distill it, but in the end know that the story is yours to tell.

CCA to hold auditions for students to be on stage with Broadway star Susan Egan The Canyon Crest Academy Foundation will be featuring a live show with Broadway Star Susan Egan at the annual CCA gala “Rendezvous In Paris,” to be held Feb. 25 2017. Egan, a Tony-nominated singer and entertainer, will bring her acclaimed “Onstage with Susan” to CCA’s Proscenium Theater. In support of the CCA Foundation’s mission to enrich the experience of students, Egan has invited CCA students to perform with her
onstage at the gala. Students will be chosen from auditions, and will have opportunities to perform in a few larger chorus pieces, some smaller ensemble and possibly trio selections, as well as the opportunity to sing a duet. Auditions for singers will be held Oct. 10-11, after school. Egan has traversed all four corners of the entertainment industry, making powerful impressions in theatre, film, television and music.
She was last seen on Broadway in the title role of Thoroughly Modern Millie; she won critical acclaim as Broadway’s (longest-running) “Sally Bowles” in Cabaret; originated the starring roles in Triumph of Love and State Fair; and most notably, received both Tony Award and Drama Desk nominations for “Best Actress” as Broadway’s original “Belle” in Disney’s Beauty and the Beast. Among her regional credits, Egan starred
alongside Carol Burnett in Sondheim’s Putting It Together, Tommy Tune in the national tour of Bye, Bye Birdie, reprised her role of “Belle” for the Los Angeles premiere of Beauty and the Beast, and developed works at Yale Rep, Baltimore Center Stage, South Coast Rep, and the Mark Taper Forum. Proceeds from the gala will help fill the gap between state school funding and the quality educational programming expected in the community.

Spring Cleaning Maintenance Tips for Your Vehicle: Prepare Your Car for El Niño As spring approaches, you need to look over your vehicle to determine any maintenance that needs to be performed before hitting the open road. Winter weather, even in a sunny place like San Diego, can wreak havoc on your vehicle.
It’s a good reminder to take a look at the inner workings of your car and make sure there aren’t any maintenance problems that have emerged over the last couple of months. The battery, tires, suspension, brakes and severe weather can all have an influence on your vehicle’s performance. Read on and implement the following tips to protect your vehicle this spring. Headlamps and Running Lights Ensure that your lights are always working so you can turn on the headlamps ASAP in the event of heavy rain. Check Your Tires Any type of cold weather can influence your tire pressure, so make sure that everything is properly balanced and inflated. Low tire pressure and worn out treads can cause unnecessary problems on the road, so checking your tire pressure and

your treads regularly should become a habit not just in springtime but year-round. Plugs, Wires and Batteries All of these elements have an important role in your vehicle, and they can be put under stress during the winter months. If you replace old (three years or more) and weak batteries now, you could save yourself money down the road, especially if you have to get towed. Brakes It’s always a good idea to check your brake system at least once a year. Take a look at your brake fluid, lines, hoses, and parking brake to ensure that they are all at the proper levels. You can ask your mechanic to take a look at any wear and tear during your oil change, too. Fluid Levels There are many things to check with
regard to your fluid levels, but you should not ignore any of them. Look at brake fluid, anti-freeze transmission fluid, engine oil and even your windshield washer fluid. Air Filters When you are getting your brakes, transmission fluid or oil changed, make sure that your engine air filter is up to date and clean. Wheel Alignment and Suspension Any time you hit a major pothole, this can do significant damage to your struts and shocks. Making sure that you schedule an inspection to deal with leaks or serious wear can alleviate bigger issues down the road. Belts and Hoses Look for cracked or worn belts as well as any hoses that are too soft, brittle or blistered. Anything older than five years may need to be replaced.

Nature and Culture International 20th anniversary celebration
N
early 150 people gathered Sept. 15 at the Powerhouse Community Center in Del Mar to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Nature and Culture International (NCI). The event also celebrated international conservation and honored NCI’s founder and Del Mar resident Ivan Gayler with the inaugural E.O. Wilson Biodiversity award. “I realized long ago that I could build another shopping center like the Del Mar Plaza but never in a million years could I create a songbird, a pink river dolphin or a blue morpho butterfly,” Gayler
said. “That has helped me to dedicate my time and resources to help conserve the variety of life on earth. To me the highest expression of life is the variety of life itself.” Having already helped to save 13 million acres in Latin America to date, NCI has its sights on preserving 20 million acres by 2020. Gayler, along with the other members of NCI’s Board of Directors and supporters, now must focus on raising the necessary capital to continue and expand conservation work before the forest disappears forever. “We have a moral obligation to
continue the good work we are doing not for ourselves but for future generations and the health of the planet,” Gayler said. NCI is a conservation nonprofit aimed at helping local and indigenous people preserve rain forests and other endangered ecosystems throughout Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, Brazil and Mexico. The majority of NCI employees are local Latin American conservationists who work closely with local communities and local governments. More information about NCI can be found at natureandculture.org.

North Coast Rep to present Neil Simon’s ‘Laughter on the 23rd Floor’ North Coast Repertory Theatre, which mounted a monster hit last year with Neil Simon’s Chapter Two, is now staging one of Simon’s funniest plays, “Laughter on the 23rd Floor,” the playwright’s love letter to his early career as a writer for Sid Caesar’s “Your Show of Shows.” “Laughter on the 23rd Floor” will run Oct. 22-Nov. 13 (previews Oct. 19). Described by Variety as “a battery of yuks that barely lets up,” the play recounts his writing, fighting and wacky antics during the days of live television when he cavorted with such comedy legends as Carl Reiner and Mel Brooks. As you clutch your sides in laughter at their wild witty attempts to please their terrifyingly demanding boss, you’ll see why the New York Times hailed Laughter as “one of Simon’s best, most enduring and endearing plays.” For tickets and more information: (858) 481-1055 or www.northcoastrep.org.

The annual Icon Awards, in its 7th year after being renamed, was held recently at the Westin San Diego Gaslamp with Emcee Dan Cohen, anchor for CBS News 8. The event brought over 500 attendees to see who would come away with top honors representing 36 different categories. With over 200 nominations and entries, the 5-person panel of distinguished industry leaders from outside San Diego County spent three days reviewing product and interviewing individuals. “In a time when not enough new housing is being produced to meet demand, it’s wonderful to recognize those projects, companies and individuals that help fuel one of the biggest driving forces in our economy,” said Borre Winckel, President & CEO of BIA San Diego.
