SDUHSD gathering input for new trustee district maps BY KAREN BILLING On Oct. 12, the San Dieguito Union High School District (SDUHSD) held the first of a series of public hearings as it begins the process of transitioning from an “at large” election system to a “by-trustee area” election system. The city of Encinitas is undergoing a similar effort as the school district and many other elected bodies throughout the state in response to threats of costly litigation

for violations of the California Voting Rights Act (CVRA). The CVRA prohibits the use of at-large elections of governing board members if it “impairs the ability of a protected class to elect candidates of its choice or its ability to influence the outcome of an election.” A violation of the CVRA is established if it is shown that racially polarized voting has occurred in a district’s governing board election.
The only way SDUHSD can protect itself from a potential CVRA litigation is to divide into the “by-trustee area” system — one governing board member will be elected by the registered voters in that area rather than the community at-large. The new district map would be effective for the 2018 election. SDUHSD Superintendent Eric Dill said he sent an email message about the
efforts to divide the district on Oct. 9 to all of the district parent contacts and has only received two responses, one for and one against. “I think right now the interest is not huge,” Dill said. “People are curious but we’re not getting a lot of input. I think once the maps go out we’re probably going to see that more people will come out and have an opinion one way or the SEE SDUHSD, A22
RSF School board to consider five candidates for appointment BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe School District board interviewed five candidates for its board vacancy in an open session on Oct. 16. Candidates Elise Dufresne, Kali Kim, Jee Manghani, Richard Shen and Jon Yonemitsu were each asked the same eight questions about issues such as their priorities, their decision-making process and how they would assess the performance of the district. The board will now have a week until it makes a decision on the appointment — the board will deliberate in open session and select the new board member on Monday, Oct. 23 at 9 a.m. Candidate Kim is a certified public accountant who has volunteer experience as this year’s Scholar’s Circle coordinator for the Rancho Santa Fe Education Foundation as well as being a former Village Church Children’s Ministry Commission member. Kim talked about the importance of setting a district vision and establishing a structure for support and accountability for that vision. She said an important metric to assess how the district is doing is through receiving feedback from the community. She heard a lot of input from parents by attending all of the newcomer events this year, but she would also like to hear from parents of students who are departing to other districts. As a board member, she said getting out and talking to parents is important so they feel comfortable coming forward with any concerns, as she noted many parents do not attend school board meetings. “The school board can’t achieve anything without making sure they’re aligned with what the community wants,” Kim said. “I think that a school board member is an advocate for the kids in the community, to ensure that the children receive everything that they need to reach their highest potential.” Manghani, a commercial software developer, was a candidate in the 2016 election. He received 12.30 percent of the votes, fourth out of seven candidates for three seats. SEE CANDIDATES, A20

Solana Beach School District passes resolution to continue DACA program BY KAREN BILLING On Oct. 12, the Solana Beach School District (SBSD) adopted a resolution calling on Congress to continue the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program and provide DACA recipients with a pathway to permanent residence and eventually U.S. citizenship. “Our board of education believes that each student deserves to be treated with respect and as a valuable human being — with hopes, dreams, aspirations, and goals,” read the resolution. “Each DACA recipient should be allowed to fulfill those dreams.” “I think it shows that our district embraces the diversity of our students and families and that our schools are a safe and supportive place for students to learn,” SBSD Superintendent Terry Decker said of the resolution which passed unanimously. At the meeting, there were five speakers in favor of the board taking action, including parents, board
members from the La Colonia de Eden Gardens Foundation and a representative from the ACLU San Diego. “Every child in America has a right to an education. We all want children to be successful in school and in order to do so, they must feel confident in their abilities.When a child has to hide in the shadows of their community for fear of being deported, or not attend a school field trip because it may involve crossing a Border Patrol checkpoint, then their chances of being successful in school are much less in their favor,” said Lisa Montes, vice president of the La Colonia Eden Gardens Foundation. “The Solana Beach School District needs to be commended for standing up for DACA children by putting this DACA resolution on the agenda and unanimously voting yes on it. I am now even prouder to have been educated in Solana Beach schools.” SEE DACA, A20

Remembering the wrath of the Witch Creek Fire Ten years ago on Oct. 22, 2007, the Witch Creek Fire roared through Rancho Santa Fe, resulting in the loss of 37 Rancho Santa Fe homes (including 21 in the Covenant) and two homes in Fairbanks Ranch. The fire overall burned 197,990 acres and destroyed 1,125 residential structures in San Diego County. The following is an excerpt from Rancho Santa Fe Review articles written by reporter Ian S. Port. The Witch Creek Fire had moved from the backcountry into Ramona, into Poway and across I-15 by the morning of Monday, Oct. 22. By that evening, with the help of the frenzying Santa Anas, the fire was burning in Rancho Santa Fe. A branch of the fire had run from Lake Hodges into the San Dieguito riverbed, where it raced toward homes on the eastern side of Rancho Santa Fe. The fire moved so fast that it didn’t completely burn the vegetation that transported it. But once in the river bottom, homes at the tops of nearby hillsides in Rancho Del Rio and the Covenant made easy targets. Zumaque street lies on the far southeast corner of the Rancho Santa Fe Covenant: a steep, downhill-sloping single lane that ends close to the San Dieguito river. The homes on the west side of the street sit high on the edge of a hilltop, overlooking the river and mountain areas to the east. Six of them were the Witch Creek Fire’s first victims in the Covenant. Two other homes on Zumaque were damaged. It would be the hardest-hit street in the area. The fire raced through the Covenant Monday night, spreading through trees and embers catapulted from high-rise walls of fire. The high
What was left of one Zumaque home after the Witch Creek Fire. winds created the possibility that the flames could end up nearly anywhere. From Zumaque the flames moved both north and south, engulfing homes on El Vuelo, Via Monalex, Las Cuestas, Las Colinas and other streets. But the southerly winds prevailed, pushing the Witch Creek fire straight for the RSF Village. Duncan Hadden’s family had owned The Inn
IAN S. PORT
at Rancho Santa Fe for 50 years. So when the call for evacuation came on Monday, Hadden didn’t leave — he set up shop in a central room of his business and waited. When winds freshened around midnight, the fire was headed for The Inn — and him. “At 3 a.m. I was sitting in the living room of The Inn seeing these flames coming over the tops of the eucalyptus trees in the park — they
were that tall — and all the hot embers coming into town,” Hadden remembered. “The front lawn was just sparklers of ashes and burning embers … I didn’t dare get closer than here, but you could hear propane tanks exploding from down there, eucalyptus trees exploding from the sap, it was just unbelievable.” Standing alone on the lawn of his family’s Inn, wearing ski goggles to see through the smoke while watching towers of flame shooting into the sky, Hadden feared the worst. He was seeing the fire at Camino Selva, a small street off of Via De Santa Fe less than a block from Stump’s Market and the Mobile station in the village. With flames so close to the middle of Rancho Santa Fe, the firefighters had a choice: work like hell to stop the fire there, or see the village and perhaps a large swath of the Ranch in smoldering ruin by sunrise. So the fire crews — many of whom were slaving through their second straight night of battling blazes around Southern California — turned their hoses straight up in the air. “They caught their embers and at least got water on them — and then God was with us, because they didn’t land on a bad spot,” RSF Fire District Director Jim Ashcraft remembered. For Hadden, the firefighters’ valiant efforts and upturned hoses also proved miraculous — his family business and the village it relied on were saved. “I would’ve bet every penny in my pocketbook that we would’ve lost the town and The Inn if they hadn’t been down there,” he said.

Sharp leader to receive prestigious award for philanthropic work Charitable giving is both his passion and profession BY JOE TASH Local resident Bill Littlejohn oversees philanthropy and fundraising for Sharp HealthCare, a nonprofit healthcare provider and one of the largest hospital and clinic networks in San Diego County. “I’m the fundraising guy,” said Littlejohn, who joined Sharp in 2002 as senior vice president and CEO of the Sharp HealthCare Foundation. In that capacity over the past 15 years, he has overseen efforts to raise some $275 million, which has been spent on a variety of projects, from new buildings to the latest medical equipment. Over the past 30 years, Littlejohn has seen his profession grow ever more complex, similar to the challenging environment faced by healthcare organizations. “It’s not the days of the bake sale and the carwash,” said Littlejohn. In recognition of his contributions to the fundraising profession, the Association for Healthcare Philanthropy, a national industry group, has selected Littlejohn as the recipient of its Harold J. (Si) Seymour Award, named after a man considered a trailblazer in the world of philanthropy and fundraising. The award will be presented Oct. 20 in New Orleans. Littlejohn said he was humbled by the award. “It was recognition by my colleagues more than anything else,” Littlejohn said. “The culmination of my focus for the last quarter century.”

Bill Littlejohn, senior vice president and CEO of the Sharp HealthCare Foundation Philanthropy is critical for nonprofits such as Sharp, which count on fundraising to supplement revenue from operations and borrowing to pay for major capital improvements, Littlejohn said. “(Sharp) relies on charitable contributions and the support of the community to do the things it does,” he said. In a broader sense, he said, philanthropy acts as a bridge for those who have a vision to make their community better, such as healthcare providers, and those who have the means to make that vision a reality. “The power of philanthropy is where people of vision and generosity make possible the achievements of the dreams of people of skill and dedication,” Littlejohn said. And the job of people in his profession, he said, is to help forge connections between donors and healthcare providers.
They do that by cultivating relationships with people from all walks of life, including physicians, hospital board members, staff, patients and their families, and members of the local community. Fundraising professional are storytellers, said Littlejohn, sharing the vision of their organization in all manner of locations, from the golf course to a fundraising gala to an informal coffee in someone’s home. The message they impart is, “We have a vision for the future and it requires a significant investment,” he said. Littlejohn joked that he could write a book about hospital cafeterias, since he has eaten in about 200 of them during his healthcare fundraising career. Since Littlejohn believes strongly in the work of fundraising professionals, and how it can help nonprofits achieve their goals, he has become a “champion and evangelist” for philanthropy, both within Sharp and in the San Diego community. To that end, he has volunteered to serve on a number of nonprofit boards, including that of Santa Fe Christian School in Solana Beach. He and his wife, Lisa, have two children, Will, 16, and Lauren, 14, who attend the school. When he’s not at work, Littlejohn said he and his family love to travel, enjoying vacations on the coast of Maine. Littlejohn serves as scorekeeper for Santa Fe Christian’s lacrosse games. He also loves to read books about history. That interest in history, he said, relates to the legacy of philanthropy. “These great stories of the past can influence the future.” Visit give.sharp.com/ways-to-give

RSF artist paints a good career for herself in a changing world BY BRITTANY WOOLSEY ome years ago, Anne Swan Moore was told by a friend that the “art world was changing.” Mid-sized galleries were disappearing, and what seemed to be replacing them was large art shows. While the Rancho Santa Fe painter said she missed the mid-sized galleries, she was grateful for large art shows, such as the Art San Diego 2017 Contemporary Art Show at the end of September in Del Mar, which she recently participated in. "I met a lot of wonderful people at the art show here, and I think that's a huge advantage," she said. "If they're going to replace the middle galleries — where most of the people come if you have a show they know — the big art fairs are great opportunities to see a lot of good art from around the world and meet the interesting artists that accompany it." Now, the 33-year resident of San Diego has been invited to appear in upcoming shows in Miami, New York and Las Vegas. Moore, who was formerly a musician and has appeared in dozens of museums around the world throughout her career, first picked up a paintbrush in her 20s, when she began raising two children after her first husband died. Her children's kindergarten teacher invited her to a painting class, and then a gallery, and “that was it” for Moore. She first started with abstract paintings while living in California. Then, when she moved temporarily to New York, she realized most of her abstract paintings were landscapes,
S
something she couldn't paint in the Big Apple. She then went to the grocery store, purchased a variety of fruits and vegetables and began painting them in a contemporary way. "That got me into my next 15-year period of creating, in a contemporary manner, very old compositions," she said. "Everything, every apple, every flower, has a bit of difference to it." She said the difference between abstract and contemporary art, for her, is more details going into the contemporary art, like glazing. Each painting she does can take about four months, and she says she completes about a dozen works a year. Writing in Artweek magazine covering one of Moore’s earlier shows, art critic Robert McDonald declared that her “color sense is sophisticated and pleasing, and her control of the brush is energetic and sure. Moore’s paintings create a feeling of compatibility with nature. They require examination both from a distance and up close, both straight on and from oblique angles.” In the Los Angeles Times, Leah Goldman praised Moore’s work as “evocative.” And while she moved from music to painting, music still plays a role in Moore's life as she creates her art to music. She said the songs and their energy motivate her paintings. "Anything from Janis Joplin to Bach," she said. "I was told by someone that there are very few people who can synthesize music into visual art and, apparently, that's what I do." For more information about Moore and to see some of her work, visit her website at anneswanmoore.com.

Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society welcomes visitors
RSF has been having fabulous weather lately and many tourists in San Diego are taking this opportunity to visit beautiful Rancho Santa Fe. Many come specifically to visit the RSF Historical Society at La Flecha House, including a recent visit by a nice family group of a mother and her son with his wife and sister. After their visit to La Flecha House they took the RSF Historical Society’s self-directed Village tour, and stopped to have a great lunch before dropping back to say how much they loved the RSF town. Many local residents have not visited their historic treasure and so the RSF Historical Society wants everyone to know that the RSF Historical Society is now open five days a week, Tuesday through Friday, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. These times are until further notice, based on the weather. — RSF Historical Society

Engaging Women in Wealth Dear Deb,
fascinating insight into six mega-debates that have split the Jewish community throughout our history —and some of these matters continue to be debated today!” Great Debates in Jewish History raises such questions as: Why were the authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls opposed to rabbinic interpretation? What motivated the rebels at Masada? And what is the Jewish perspective on taking up arms in situations where defeat is inevitable? What role does nationalism play in Judaism? Are faith and reason are mutually exclusive? What motivated the anti-Maimonideans in banning — and even burning — some of Maimonides’s works? And is religion designed to be a private and personal experience, or one to be proudly paraded in the public domain?
“Our goal is to invite participants to seek out the rationale behind both sides of each debate — even sides they may disagree with,” explained Rabbi Zalman Abraham, of JLI’s Brooklyn, NY headquarters. “In doing so, we hope to unite the community around the very issues that have divided us for so long,” Like all JLI programs, this course is designed to appeal to people at all levels of knowledge, including those without any prior experience or background in Jewish learning. All JLI courses are open to the public, and attendees need not be affiliated with a particular synagogue, temple or other house of worship. Interested students may call 858-756-7571 or visit www.jewishRSF.com for registration and for other course-related information.

R. Roger Rowe School to hold Red Ribbon week activities
Village Church to build Habitat for Humanity homes and playhouses, volunteers needed Nov. 4 North County residents will have a unique chance to help a family build a strong foundation for the future by volunteering with the Village Church of Rancho Santa Fe on Saturday, Nov. 4, to construct a home in El Cajon with the aid of Habitat for Humanity. Starting at 7:30 a.m., some 20 volunteers ages 12 and older will take a church van to the location where they will be met by volunteers from five other San Diego Presbyterian churches along with a skilled team of homebuilders. No experience is necessary, just a deep desire to help your neighbor, explained the Rev. Dr. Jan Farley, associate pastor of the Village Church. “When families have homes they thrive, no longer worrying about their children sleeping in cars or living on the streets,” she added. “This build is an incredible opportunity for people of all ages to spend a rewarding day directly helping those in need.” The church is also looking for up to 80 more volunteers that same day to assemble, paint and decorate nine playhouses with four going to Habitat for Humanity for distribution to military families

This year’s theme is “Your Future is Key, So Stay Drug Free!” In addition to daily dress up days, students will attend Fire Prevention and Stranger Awareness & Safety assemblies.

Fifth graders will participate in an essay contest about the choices they will make to honor their futures by staying drug free. R. Roger Rowe thanks the Rancho Santa Fe Pharmacy and Jamba Juice for their continued support.

Jake’s Del Mar Fun Run kicks off Breeders’ Cup Festival Week
TPHS California Challenge 2017 champions
COURTESY
TPHS Girls Volleyball team wins California Challenge tournament The Torrey Pines High School Girls Volleyball team captured first place in the prestigious California Challenge tournament held Oct. 6-7. With 32 teams competing, some traveling from as far as Arizona, Nevada and Alabama, the competition was fierce. Hosted by TPHS, the tournament was divided into four brackets, and hosted at three nearby venues: WAVE Volleyball Club, Cathedral Catholic High School and Canyon Crest Academy. The Torrey Pines team played well during the two days, with several observers commenting that the team was “like a well-oiled machine.” When the two teams met in the championship round on Saturday, they were exhilarated but not exhausted. In terms of current national rankings, TPHS is 9th in the country and Santa Margarita close behind at 13th. TPHS entered the California Challenge championship round having lost to Santa Margarita last November in the CIF State Championships. In a thrilling competition, TPHS beat Santa Margarita 25-18 and 25-21. Awarded All Tournament Team medals were Ellie Auerbach, Emily Fitzner and Jaden Whitmarsh. Recognized as the tournament’s Most Valuable Player was Kiara McNulty.

OUR READERS WRITE Fiber project could avoid community debt Congratulations on our community’s decision to spend our homeowners’ money to upgrade our infrastructure! From what I’ve read, the project is projected to cost $13 million-$14 million. The RSF Association Enhancement Fund will provide $8 million, leaving a proposed debt financing of $5 million -$6 million. But we don’t need to borrow another $6 million to completely fund this project! I recently completed my three-year term on the RSF Association Finance committee. One of the topics that we discussed several times over those years was how to best use our financial resources for our community. Rancho Santa Fe has “assets” that we can choose to allocate for community projects. Cash is the asset we normally think about, but we also have land assets that can be re-allocated if the RSF board chooses. The obvious alternative to additional debt financing is to sell our excess Osuna land at whatever the current real estate market will provide. Keep the adobe structure and a nominal flag lot and sell the remaining property “as is.” Financially, it is irrelevant what our RSF board paid for this property years ago; this is referred to as a sunk cost. What is important is that we should be able to sell excess Osuna property for several million dollars, which would either reduce or eliminate debt for our new community fiber project. Greg Gruzdowich
School district needs strategic educational plan for success Do the Rancho Santa Fe homeowners want another school bond? It’s unreasonable at this point, since our $34 million school (built for 850 students) is only seven years old. Our student population is shrinking with only 643 students in attendance this year. During the original bond planning process, the gym and classroom building (300) were thought to be in excellent shape and needed only fire alarm retrofits, while the new construction was slated for an administration building, elementary school classrooms, middle school classrooms with state-of-the-art science
buildings. The original multipurpose building was modified to become our now Performing Arts Center. In 2014, just four years after the new build, the school board surveyed the community proposing to tear down the existing gym and build a much larger facility. They put this idea on hold due to little community support. However, just one year later school board members Seltzer and Frank voted on a new master plan proclaiming interest in a new larger gym, more parking, more classrooms and specialty program space for after school programs (robotics), and additional playing fields through land acquisitions from neighbors on El Fuego and Mimosa. Only problem is that Seltzer and Frank had zero input on this master plan. No parents, students, community members or grade level teachers were consulted with any organized effort. How is this a priority when the school readily admits there is no overall strategic plan for school programs (existing programs are just now starting to be assessed on effectiveness). It seems obvious that an evaluation of the current state of the school, its programs, and its goals for academic excellence should be done first! Then, an assessment of the facilities would logically follow. (See board member Sarah Neal ‘s comments in the RSF Review 10/12/17 issue). Do we want to be the number #1 elementary school in the county? Do we want to be a California Distinguished School? We currently spend more dollars per student than any other school in San Diego County, but our K-5 school is ranked at #29 against other county schools. No more facilities or master planing before we focus on the priorities of creating a strategic educational plan for success to carry our students in the highest academic achievement ranking in the county or the state. Is that unreasonable? Annie Golden
RSF should not accept another school board member by appointment Attention RSF voters. This Monday your school board is about to appoint its third member within six years, defining the majority of the board (total of five seats), without an election. It is an unprecedented compromise of voter rights, and it is time to object. Across the nation in our public schools, a school board member is an elected position. This is
Evacuation: Preparation is key BY RANCHO SANTA FE FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT When living within wildland urban interface areas such as the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District, planning ahead for wildfires is a necessity. As we have been reminded over the last week, fire can strike without warning and move alarmingly fast, often leaving residents with limited time to gather household belongings and mementos. Preparing for wildfires
before they happen is your best defense against the flames. Be sure to register your home phone number, cell phone number, and email address with AlertSanDiego, San Diego County’s mass emergency notification system. Registration can be done online at www.AlertSanDiego.org. The county also has an app that provides information during emergencies, including push notifications on your phone. Simply search “San Diego
well-established and fundamental to our nation – the right of communities to elect their school board members, and for school board members to reflect the community’s voice in the leadership of local public schools. Yet Rancho Santa Fe is on the verge of accepting a school board majority selected initially by appointment. It is known that in RSF incumbents are rarely, if ever, voted out, and school board meetings are sparsely attended. Knowing that, the board’s decision to appoint rather than to elect is particularly objectionable. Complacent voters assume that candidates marked “incumbent” on the ballot were initially elected and vetted thoroughly, so appointed candidates never undergo the same scrutiny. Winning subsequently on a ballot marked “incumbent” does not meet the same bar as winning initially by election. Of the four current members, only two initially earned their seats in public election. The other two were appointed, one in 2011 and one in 2015. If the school board proceeds with its plans for a third appointment, then an unprecedented majority of the five board members will have come into their seat by appointment. Rancho Santa Fe is fortunate to have eminently qualified people in our community who would make outstanding leaders for our school board. Our community’s challenge is to select among them in a responsible democratic way, honoring voters’ rights and ensuring that all school board candidates are vetted by the community on a level playing field. There is only a small window in the election cycle when an appointment is allowed to fill a seat vacated by resignation. It is interesting that the timing of three successive resignations have all hit these narrow windows and missed the deadline for inclusion in the November ballot by a few weeks. Regardless of the coincidence, it is bad practice to bypass elections repeatedly in order to fill sequential vacancies by appointment. Appointments typically allow a smaller number of board members to gain disproportionate influence. By appointing an additional member who is like-minded, existing members can leverage their influence on agendas, such as a bond measure or strategic plan. Rancho Santa Fe should not accept another school board member by appointment. The currently vacant seat calls out for a special election to uphold the community voice on our school board.

FROM DACA, A1 Former President Barack Obama implemented the DACA program in 2012. The program offered work authorization and a renewable two-year reprieve from deportation to unauthorized immigrants who were brought to the United States as children and met specific eligibility requirements. According to the Pew Research Center, there are 222,795 DACA recipients in California. DACA recipients must have been brought to the United States before they were 16 years old; have maintained continuous residence since 2007 and must be attending school; have earned a high school diploma or equivalent, or have been honorably discharged from military service; and have not been convicted of a felony or three or more misdemeanors. DACA applicants, or “DREAMers,” must pay nearly $500 to apply and receive a background check and fingerprinting. According to the Migration Policy Institute, one-third of all DACA recipients are enrolled in high school, one-fifth enrolled in college and one-fourth are enrolled in college and working at
the same time. On Sept. 5, United States Attorney General Jeff Sessions, speaking on behalf of President Trump, announced that without action by Congress to approve legislation to formally create or replace the DACA program, the current program would cease to exist within six months or by March 2018. As stated in the board’s resolution, the announcement reportedly caused “panic and distress” in the DACA-eligible community and for many undocumented students and families throughout California. Some undocumented students were even discouraged from attending school. SBSD board member Vicki King was responsible for bringing the resolution before the board. She said she hadn’t heard of the fear and distress occurring within the Solana Beach district but she wanted to get in front of it. “When I heard that this had happened, it was a call to action for me,” King said. “Every student should come to school without fear and with faith in our schools. It was a great opportunity for our district to say how much we embrace diversity. I believe as a school board member that diversity
FROM CANDIDATES, A1 Manghani said his highest priorities are making sure the school is providing quality education and preparing students for the high school level, retaining the best teachers and staff and making sure the school’s aesthetics conform with the Covenant standards, specifically the gym. “I think the gym needs to fit in with the school and the rest of the community,” Manghani said, noting that the quality of the school campus has an effect on the community’s real estate values. As a board member, Manghani said a priority would be looking into whether it is fiscally responsible for the district to pursue things like renovate the gym or acquire adjacent parcels for expansion, especially if they ask taxpayers to consider a bond initiative. Manghani said that, as a board member, it is important to talk to people and make them feel like their concerns are being heard. He said this goes beyond those with school-age children but with the community at large, to ensure their interests are being represented as well. Candidate Shen, the founder and CEO of RS Technology Ventures, said he is interested in becoming a board member as a way to give back to the community. He said he has helped out at the R. Roger Rowe School with the robotics program and Science Discovery Day and could bring a unique technology perspective to the board. Shen said one of his priorities, if selected, would be toward “well-defined processes”— setting a baseline on how things should operate and then working to improve upon that baseline. He said he would also like to work toward developing a “robust culture” among school faculty members, the board and the
FROM WITCH CREEK, A2 Three hours later, the sun rose over a Rancho Santa Fe that looked largely like as it had the previous day. Three houses on Camino Selva, and many others in the eastern Covenant were gone. Only two homes were lost in Fairbanks Ranch, where the fire again jumped the riverbank and raced up a dry hillside. The village, the schools, the churches, many businesses and most of the area’s homes had survived the night. When orders for evacuation were announced Oct. 22, law enforcement and fire protection officers poured into Rancho Santa Fe Fire District Station No. 1 near the Rancho Santa Fe School. RSF Patrol Chief Matt Wellhouser ran the show — the next three days all flowed into one, and Wellhouser stayed at his post for up to 20 hours per day. At the RSF Village Presbyterian Church, Rev. Jack Baca saw that fire crews were parking in the lot of the church.
makes a richer learning environment.” In the Solana Beach School District, students come from 46 different countries and speak more than 36 different languages, Decker said. Thirty-percent of students come from a home where a language other than English is spoken. Per the resolution, there are no fewer than four separate bills pending in Congress to address the DACA program, including the bipartisan “DREAM Act,” sponsored by Senators Lindsey Graham (R-SC) and Richard Durbin (D-IL) to expand eligibility for conditional residency to 1.8 million immigrants, including all DACA recipients, who entered the United States before the age of 18 and who have been in the country longer than four years. The Republican-sponsored “Recognizing America’s Children Act,” would provide conditional residency for immigrants who arrived in this country before the age of 16 and who have been in the country for five years. “It is crucial that the Solana Beach School District make a strong statement and push for legislation without concessions for a border wall or other unnecessary border enhancements,” said
community. “What a culture does is that it helps provide a long-term direction for an organization, I would like to see that develop,” said Shen, who also said he would like to see increased parent engagement, finding more ways for parents to be involved at the school. In making decisions on the board, Shen said his focus would always be on the students first but said he would be open to hearing suggestions from the public. “Getting out there and talking to people…may actually spark other ideas. I would prefer to reach out and talk to people and get ideas and figure out what might be the best solution to the issue at hand,” Shen said. “I’ve seen many decisions that have been made with a narrow-minded focus and in many cases that is usually the wrong decision because they don’t consider all of the options.” Yonemitsu, a litigation and national trial practice partner with Gordon & Rees, is new to the community after moving to Rancho Santa Fe last year. Yonemitsu said his priorities are facilities (particularly the ongoing discussion about the gym), ensuring that students have all of the necessary technology tools and district budgeting. He targeted Rowe for its ability to cater to each child’s individual needs and said he has seen all three of his children’s confidence levels grow while being at the school. As far as assessing the district, he said some of the comments he has heard are around the preparedness of kids getting from middle school to high school and how the school can improve that transition and allow students to thrive. Yonemitsu said he feels confident in his ability to be “a steward of the public,” to be fair and balanced and give people the opportunity to say what they want to say and take their opinions
“We invited the guys to come into our fellowship center. They were extremely appreciative of the showers especially. Some of the crews had been up for 48 hours at that point,” Baca said. “We started cooking in the kitchen and bringing in sodas and Visine and Advil and hamburgers as well as cots — 40 cots and air mattresses. And the fire crews just started coming through. If they had a few hours off they’d come in and we’d feed them and give them a place to sleep and a shower and just a place to be.” Though firefighters had stopped flames in the Covenant early Tuesday morning, the heat was by no means off Rancho Santa Fe. With winds rising during the daylight hours, the Witch fire came around the other side of Lake Hodges and headed again down Del Dios — this time toward Rancho Cielo and the northeastern corner of the Covenant. Firefighters stopped it around Aliso Canyon and Via Del Las Flores. By the end of Tuesday, the fire was out —
Edward Sifuentes, senior communications strategist for the ACLU of San Diego and Imperial Counties. “DACA recipients were brought into the U.S. as children and the United States is the only country they know. California is their home. Solana Beach is their home. We cannot sit back and allow this administration to rip them away from their home, from the life they've already built here. On behalf of the ACLU, we want to thank the Solana Beach School District board for its support of this resolution and for standing with our DACA recipients.” In King’s mind, the resolution was a way that their “small little coastal Southern California school district” could take action and send an important message to Congress and the President. King said she was happy that her follow board members unanimously supported her efforts. “We just confirmed what I always thought to be true about the Solana Beach School District, that we embrace every student and all cultures that come to our schools,” said King, encouraging others to take action and contact their representatives to make their opinions known on this issue.
to heart. He said he has no agenda and his decision-making is all about facts and being as objective as possible. “The only thing that drives me is to ensure that I’m doing the right thing on a whole and to have integrity about that,” Yonemitsu said. “In such a small community you can get a lot of feedback. To be able to listen is a good quality that I think I have.” Candidate Dufresne also ran in the 2016 election, receiving 12.10 percent of the vote. As the principal of Dufresne and Associates, a political consulting firm focused on campaign strategy and communication, Dufresne said she brings a “unique set of qualifications” with years of policy research, development and implementation at all levels of government. Dufrense said her priorities would be providing “a sense of stability in a time of transition with new leadership, board members and visions; and working together to address issues, ensuring that the district is always doing what is best for children, whether that is investing in programs, reviewing curriculum or providing proficient staff. Dufresne said she would also advocate for fiscal conservancy regarding the budget and future planning, including a potential bond that she said would require collaboration with all stakeholders. “We have wonderful performance here academically. I think that certainly we are a very well-run, carefully-planned school that provides very good education and extracurriculars for our children. As far as academic performance, I think we’re at the top level and I want to see that continue and, if possible, increase,” Dufresne said. “I believe we have the resources to be one of the best, if not the best, schools in California and perhaps the country. How we can push forward and go higher would be a matter of constant review and thought on the part of the board and communication with the staff, parents and community.”
sort of. Though a front of fast-moving flames no longer threatened to move west, numerous hot spots periodically thrust columns of blue smoke into the sky. Fire crews would spend another day and a half trolling residential streets as wind whipped heat held below the ground into fresh fires, any one of which could flare up and threaten more homes. Even on Wednesday, with camouflaged National Guard humvees giving a wartime feel to the village of Rancho Santa Fe and fire engines everywhere, hot spots flared up around Las Colinas and Via De La Valle, burning trees and brush. The area was literally still smoldering from the heat of the fires. Vast areas east the Covenant were singed by the flames, but no homes were lost in Cielo, the Crosby or the Bridges — all of which were built after the fire district implemented fire protective building regulations. The 21,000 residents evacuated from the Rancho Santa Fe Fire District were allowed back into their homes on Thursday, Oct. 25.
For the owners and residents of 21 homes in the Covenant (and more outside), the ache of a frustrating return was deepened by pain and shock of finding rubble where their home used to be. Save for a chimney and a pile of blackened soot and metal, some found nothing in the place they’d left everything. One of those was Via Monalex resident John Rikkers. He moved his family to Rancho Santa Fe from New York City two months prior, and they were happy with a newer home they bought overlooking a small canyon. Having evacuated to Laguna Beach, Rikkers heard initially that his home was safe — only to get a call some hours later saying it had been completely destroyed. The scenic canyon now looked like a moonscape. "Everything burned," said David Ruiz of his family’s home on Zumaque, built in 1977. "I was hoping more of our stuff would've gotten removed but they're just material things. My dad and the dog survived and that's the important thing. Life goes on."

FROM FIRE TIPS, A18 family members can relay information. Long-distance phone systems are often operational when local phone communications are overloaded. • Plan how you will transport your pets. Make sure all your animals are wearing either a license or identification tag. Consider having your animals micro-chipped for identification purposes. Please note: If you own large animals, such as horses and livestock, make arrangements far in advance for their transportation and lodging during an emergency. Train them in advance how to load into trailers quickly and easily. Do not let horses loose to fend for themselves unless there is no other option and they are in imminent danger. Turning them out in a large arena that allows the animals to get away from vegetation is a better option. • If you are unable to drive a car, develop a network of neighbors, friends and/or caregivers who can help you prepare for and assist you during a disaster. • Make a contingency plan should you not be home when wildfire threatens. Make arrangements in advance for people or pets that will be home when you are not. Pre-arrange a family meeting place outside of your neighborhood as well. If a fire does approach, the following suggestions will help in the pre-evacuation and evacuation process. If there is time: • Wear cotton or wool long pants, long-sleeve shirts or jackets, gloves and a damp cloth to cover your nose and mouth. Do not wear short-sleeve shirts or synthetic fabrics. • Back your car into the garage (facing out) keeping the windows closed and keys in the ignition. • Close the garage door, but leave it unlocked. Disconnect the automatic garage door in case of power failure. • Place valuable documents, family mementos, pets and other valuables in your car in the garage for a quick departure. • Move yard furniture, firewood, or other combustible materials away from the exterior of the house or store it in the garage. • Attach garden hoses to spigots. Place hoses so they can reach any area around your home. • Fill sinks, bathtubs, and buckets with water to serve as extra sources of clean water. • To eliminate the possibility of sparks blowing into hidden areas within the house, close window shutters if they are fire resistant and cover windows, attic openings, eave vents and sub-floor vents with fire resistant material such as 1/2-inch or thicker plywood. • If you have one, place an aluminum ladder

Close all interior doors to slow interior fire spread. • To make your house more visible in heavy smoke, turn porch and yard lights on and turn on a light in each room of your home. • Shut off liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) or natural gas valves. • Most communities within the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District have narrow roads, which can cause traffic congestion leading to panic for those evacuating. Evacuate early. You do not need to wait for an evacuation order. If at any time you feel threatened, leave. You may also want to leave early if the evacuation will take a long time, such as if you are evacuating with small children, dependent adults, or large animals. If you are told to evacuate, do so immediately. While having your home damaged or destroyed by fire can be devastating, it is not worth risking your life or the lives of firefighters. • Evacuate in the opposite direction of the fire. • Do not attempt to pick up children from school or daycare. Staff members are trained to protect your children and will institute proper emergency procedures on site. • Call your out-of-town contact and let them know you are evacuating and where you are going. • Once you have left, stay out of the area until authorities permit re-entry. This may take a while as fire and safety personnel have to make sure it is safe and the infrastructure is in place for residents to repopulate the area. If the fire approaches too rapidly for you to be able to safely evacuate from the area, your home is the safest place for you to seek shelter in which to wait out the fire. The following outlines the safest way to shelter-in-place: • Stay indoors and wait for the wildfire-front to pass, usually within 30 minutes. • Call your out-of-town emergency contact to let them know you are sheltering-in-place. If phone calls are not going through, try texting or send an email if possible. • Shelter in rooms at the opposite end of your home from where the fire is approaching. Stay away from the perimeter walls. • If the interior of your home catches fire, go to a neighbor’s home. • Once the fire front has passed, thoroughly check your home, yard, roof, attic, etc. for fire. Use a garden hose or fire extinguisher to extinguish any spot fires or smoldering embers. like to partake in the post-tournament events.

Diplomacy Gala celebrates global connections Nov. 4 The 2017 Diplomacy Gala will bring together more than 200 citizen diplomats working together to connect San Diego leaders to those dedicated to solving the world’s most pressing issues at the Joan B. Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice at the University of San Diego on Saturday, Nov. 4. The San Diego Diplomacy Council connects San Diego to the rest of the world through professional, educational and cultural exchange programs. One of 90 nationwide organizations designated by the State Department to provide these services, the council builds relationships between community and business leaders in the San Diego region with their counterparts around the world; addressing challenges such as safety, economic opportunity, social justice and environmental sustainability. The year’s theme “Global Entrepreneurship + Public Diplomacy: A New Venture” highlights the connections made in the past year between local social and traditional entrepreneurs and their international counterparts. “The Diplomacy Gala is an opportunity for our entire network of citizen diplomats to come together and recognize the important role San Diego has to play in solving world issues,” said Carmel Valley resident Fabienne Perlov, president and CEO of the council. “We’re thrilled to highlight our professional exchange program this year which empowers our best entrepreneurial minds to use their innovative perspectives to help move the needle on important global issues like combating hate, homelessness, ocean conservation and women economic empowerment.” Perlov, a native of France, has been the executive director of the San Diego Diplomacy Council for almost two years. Perlov has over 13 years of experience in policy development, institutional fundraising, program management and capacity-building in the field of public diplomacy, international affairs, refugee protection and humanitarian assistance.
Beyond her role at the San Diego Diplomacy Council, Perlov has leadership experience at the United Nations, governmental and non-governmental organizations in the United States, Canada, the West Bank, Israel, France, Azerbaijan, Russian Federation and the Caribbean area. “I strongly believe in the power of public diplomacy as a cost-effective tool to create an international network of countries who understand and work with the United States to address common global challenges,” said Perlov, who speaks English, French, Russian, Hebrew and Spanish. Solana Beach resident Johanna Afshani has taken on the role of managing this year’s gala. She brings her own unique experience as citizen diplomat from planning cultural diplomacy events, to hosting visiting leaders in her home and identifying the best opportunities for them to learn from the San Diego region. The event will feature remarks from keynote speaker Scot Chisholm, CEO of Classy, recognized by Fast Company as one of the “The World’s Most Innovative Companies in Social Good.” Amanda Lettmann, a global woman entrepreneur and CEO of Simple Disability and Kardia Ventures, will lead the ceremony. DJ Kutz, the resident DJ for GoPro’s Carlsbad office and Voices of Our City Choir, which serves and advocates for the homeless community through music, poetry and art, will provide entertainment. Qualcomm Inc. will receive the Citizen Diplomat Partner of the Year Award and Andy White, startup advocate for the Downtown San Diego Partnership, will be recognized with the Citizen of the Year Award. Live auction packages will also be available with proceeds going toward bringing additional world leaders to experience San Diego’s spirit of collaboration. Tickets and more information are available at sandiegodiplomacy.org.

concentrated in any one area but the Asian community is congregated more in the southern part of the district. “If there was a map created that grouped that area together, you’d like to see an increase in Asian CVAP percentage over the 10 to 12 percent that the current rate is,” Salt said. The district’s demographer will take all of that data and input into consideration when putting together the maps. Salt recommended the district come up with three to four potential maps and encouraged the public to be involved in the open process: “We want to hear your comments,” he said. Salt stressed that the process does not change school attendance boundaries or how the district is governed, it remains one district with common goals and challenges. “The concerns I’ve heard from other parents are that the board would start operating as individual entities representing their own district. I know that would be a concern for the whole district if that started happening,” SDUHSD Board President Amy Herman said. “As we make these decisions, we need to be reinsuring the public that that’s not how our board governs and remembering as board members are elected hopefully the tradition and practice will be that we make decisions for the whole district no matter what area we actually live in.”
other.” A second public hearing will be held Thursday, Oct. 19 at 6 p.m. at the district office. After the map options are created there will be public hearings throughout November. The board will vote on the area boundaries after the third public hearing, at the regular SDUHSD board meeting on Dec. 14. Jonathan Salt, an attorney with Fagen Friedman & Fulfrost, gave a presentation to the SDUHSD board about what the considerations could be in drawing the new district maps — such as geographical boundaries, attendance boundaries and the district’s demographics. Salt went over the district’s existing demographics: with about 165,915 residents, 75 percent are white, 10 percent Latino, 12 percent Asian American and 1 percent African American. The district’s CVAP, the citizen voting age population, includes 119,226 who are citizens and over the age of 18. Of that group, 80 percent are white, 8 percent Latino, 10 percent Asian or Pacific Islander and 1 percent African American. Salt said one of the goals of the map considerations would be to have one of those populations’ CVAP be able to grow in at least one district. Salt said when looking at the map of the district as a whole, the Latino population’s distribution across the district is not

Breeders’ Cup Festival offers a variety of unique events BY KELLEY CARLSON The Breeders’ Cup World Thoroughbred Championships isn’t just a two-day showcase of the top thoroughbred racehorses in training. It has evolved to include a weeklong series of events that highlight the best of the host site’s offerings, and this year’s Breeders’ Cup Festival at Del Mar is the biggest one yet. “We want to show people what makes San Diego unique and entertain them,” said Craig Dado, executive vice president and chief marketing officer of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. About 25 events are planned in Del Mar and nearby locations, kicking off with Jake’s 35th Annual Beach Fun Run and Breeders’ Cup Breeze Presented by San Diego Surf Cup on Oct. 28. The 3.2-mile race in the sand will end with a party at Jake’s Del Mar, where there will be live music, Polynesian entertainment, food and beverages, and a raffle that benefits local charities. “We’re hoping to get a nice mix of locals and Breeders’ Cup folks,” Dado said. Many of the Breeders’ Cup Festival activities will be based at Barn at the Beach, a 7,000-square-foot luxury tent set up on the grass in Powerhouse Park that will accommodate 500 people. Among the events scheduled are Best at the Barn on Nov. 2, a tasting event hosted by the Del Mar Village Association that will feature some of the top chefs in San Diego County; Bash at the Beach on Nov. 3, a party after the races that benefits Thoroughbred
Charities of America; and the Breeders’ Cup Viewing Party on Nov. 4, with post-race entertainment. On Nov. 1, retired sportscaster Dick Enberg, a La Jolla resident who hosted the first seven Breeders’ Cups on NBC, will be honored with the Racing Excellence Award at the Fairmont Grand Del Mar. Jockeys Gary Stevens and Chris McCarron will be among the speakers, along with former basketball star Bill Walton and former San Diego State University basketball coach Steve Fisher. The gala will benefit the Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito. It’s a “lifetime achievement award with a Breeders’ Cup flair,” Dado noted. Additional highlights during the festival include: •Ponies & Poker (Oct. 31-Nov. 2): Amateur and professional poker players, along with racing fans, athletes and celebrities, will gather at Ocean’s Eleven Casino in Oceanside for a Texas Hold ‘Em-style tournament and a chance to win $100,000. •Breeders’ Cup Belly-Up Concert Series (Nov. 1-4): Performances by Bret Michaels of Poison, the B-52s and ’80s cover band Tainted Love with DJ Scotto are slated. •La Jolla Art Walk (Nov. 3): Guests can meander through galleries on a self-guided walking tour through the Village. •Art of the Horse (Through Nov. 4): Twenty life-size, fiberglass horse statues created by local artists are displayed throughout San Diego. For more information about these and other events, go to breederscupfestival.com.

Something for everyone:
2017 Breeders’ Cup and Bing Crosby fall racing season set to begin BY KELLEY CARLSON After many months of planning and prepping, the stage has been set for the 34th annual Breeders’ Cup World Thoroughbred Championships to come to Del Mar. It’s finally showtime. One of thoroughbred racing’s biggest events, the Breeders’ Cup consists of 13 Grade I races with purses and awards totaling more than $28 million. This year’s edition will be hosted by the seaside oval for the first time, slated for Nov. 3 and 4 as part of the fall meet’s opening weekend. It will be likely be a new experience for many people, predicted Craig Dado, executive vice president and chief marketing officer of the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club. He said that based on reports as of early October, 76
percent of ticket buyers are from outside Southern California, and many of them are likely East Coast fans who go to Saratoga in New York rather than Del Mar in the summer. “We’re going to blow everyone away with what we have to offer,” Dado said. “Between the weather, the beaches, the restaurants … there’s never been a (Breeders’ Cup) host site quite like Del Mar.” With the event expected to bring in an estimated $100 million to the area, the organizers are pulling out all the stops. They’re presenting a week’s worth of activities in Del Mar and the surrounding areas during the Breeders’ Cup Festival, which starts Oct. 28 and runs through Nov. 4. The track itself will open Nov. 1 and feature the return of the Hollywood

On Nov. 2, the racetrack will host a Breeders’ Cup Sneak Peek Day, with event merchandise for sale, special food and cocktails, an autograph session with jockeys and trainers, and an opportunity to win tickets for Friday and Saturday. For the championships on Nov. 3 and 4, ticket sales have been capped at 38,000 each day. As of early October, the majority of tickets were sold out, Dado said, although there may be still be some available for the infield or the two-story, luxury chalets in the Seaside Concert Area. He added that all tickets must be bought ahead of time, and walkups will not be permitted. Parking on site will only be permitted for those who have already bought passes, which are now sold out. Dado said parking services will be offered by select host hotels, the British Bus Co. at the Solana Beach train station, Uber and Lyft, and there are three off-site parking locations that will offer complimentary shuttles for ticket holders - Del Mar Horse Park (14550 El Camino Real, Del Mar), MiraCosta College’s San Elijo campus (3333 Manchester Ave., Cardiff) and the Kilroy Realty Park & Ride (3633 Kilroy Driveway, San Diego).

Director Blake McCarty works with the cast of “Mystifique.”

‘Mystifique’: A unique take on Poe works to haunt CCA campus BY KAREN BILLING Canyon Crest Academy’s Envision Theatre Arts performers will interpret the fantastic terrors of the works of Edgar Allan Poe through a “macabre masquerade” of acting, movement, music, rhythmic gymnastics, tap dancing and even puppets. “Mystifique,” a devised performance created in partnership with Blindspot Collective and Diversionary Theatre, will be staged on Oct. 27 28 at 7 p.m. and Nov 2-4 and Nov. 7-9 at 7 p.m. While the performers rehearse on a set on stage, the piece will be performed in a “mysterious location on the Canyon Crest campus.” Jeannine Marquie, the theatre coordinator at CCA, said that Poe was a perfect fit for both the time of year with his Halloween-y, gothic romantic aesthetic not to mention the call-out to CCA’s mascot: The Raven. Marquie keeps an eye on what is happening in the arts and all forms of theater opportunities for her students and she was excited about the idea of students doing devised theatre, a form of theatre in which the script and show is created through a collaboration of the performers and director. “The last several years I’ve been building the program with traditional theater. This gives kids an opportunity to do something different than most high schools would ever do,” Marquie said. “The idea to devise a piece was not something I’d ever done.” For “Mystifique,” she brought in directors Blake McCarty and Skyler Sullivan. Sullivan, the education associate for Diversionary Theatre in San Diego, is a veteran teaching artist. At CCA he has worked with students as a guest artist in clown and physical comedy and in voice training —“Mystifique” is his first time as a director of an after-school piece. McCarty, a performance and multimedia artist and educator, is the executive artistic director of Blindspot Collective, a performing arts nonprofit that looks to develop new work and encourage new perspectives — Sullivan and Marquie are members of the Blindspot Board of Directors. McCarty has been working with CCA since 2014 and has introduced students to many different theater styles such as ethnodrama or verbatim theatre work around social issues such as mental health and immigration. In 2015, he developed “Hall Pass” for CCA which represented a style of theater in which the show was staged at different areas of the school

For the auditions for “Mystifique,” students were challenged to come up with two minutes of content for the show and a cast of 22 was selected, each bringing something totally unique to the production. “The cast has so many distinct, special and wonderful skills,” McCarty said. The first two weeks of rehearsals for the show were idea generation. The directors gave the students 15 different Poe stories and poems and asked them to let their creativity run wild. They were asked to stay true to Poe’s texts but interpret it in their own way, such as by composing their own songs, both instrumental and voice, or choreographing movements and dance. “It’s the most unique of all of the shows that I’ve worked on,” said senior cast member Ally Martin. In rehearsals the cast worked in small groups and then came together to share their ideas –with constructive feedback some ideas were kept, some scraped and the directors recorded all ideas because the person who came up with the concept wasn’t always the one selected to perform it. “I felt like the directors really incorporated all of the things we like to do. I’m into stage combat, so they let me bring that into the ‘Tell-Tale Heart,’” Ally said. From all of those ideas, Sullivan and McCarty created the bones for the script, distilling, editing and sequencing the best 10. “It’s a really eclectic show, the performance modes and styles are all so diverse,” said senior cast member Nicole From. “All disciplines are represented.” SEE POE, B18

Aurora Capital provides a different way to think about life insurance costs
La Jolla Cultural Partners
Aurora Capital Alliance wants people to know there are more options out there for them when it comes to life insurance. The decade-old, Rancho Santa Fe-based premium finance company works with advisers and their clients across the country in the design, implementation and administration of the financing of large life insurance premiums. Alex Bellini, founder of Aurora Capital, said he wants to raise awareness to let people know they don’t have to pay for their life insurance premiums in cash. “A lot of people don’t even know it’s an option,” he said. “It’s important to understand there are multiple ways to purchase, really, anything in the world. Life insurance is just another one of those assets.” To qualify for Aurora Capital’s services, individuals must have a net worth of more than $5 million, be insurable and be 85 years of age or younger. Bellini said it is similar to taking out an interest-only loan for a mortgage. The loans also do not show up on credit reports. Aurora Capital serves hundreds of people and thousands of advisers across the country. Because of its business-to-business model, the company typically works with advisers, who then work with their clients. The company’s services benefit clients, advisers and banks, Bellini said. He said advisers and lending institutions benefit from the selling of large life insurance policies, and banks benefit from the loan interest revenue. People who choose to finance with Aurora Capital can

The Aurora Capital team acquire large amounts of life insurance without having to pay cash.

If not, at least they

RANCHO SANTA FE REVIEW - OCTOBER 19, 2017 - PAGE B5
Caregiver’s book has family insights on coping with Alzheimer’s BY JEANNE RAWDIN It’s called the Memory Disease, and it’s the new epidemic. Alzheimer’s and dementia are overtaking millions of seniors at alarming rates. Elizabeth Lonseth has written a book on the subject, “A Gradual Disappearance,” and she spoke about her family’s struggles with Memory Disease on Oct. 11 at the Oakmont Assisted Living Center in Pacific Beach. The audience included caregivers, seniors, family members and health professionals. Lonseth’s book recounts the tale of how she and her husband took the journey of caregiver four times over — first with her father, then with both of her husband’s parents, and finally with her mother — all who were diagnosed with dementia and Alzheimer’s. Throughout the story, Lonseth offers tips on the struggles that come with caregiving. She started her presentation with some staggering statistics: One in five people will die with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia. One in 10 people over age 65 have Alzheimer’s. Two out of three of those are women. Alzheimer’s is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States. Her personal introduction to the disease occurred when her father was diagnosed with vascular dementia during the last two years of his life, occurring after 14 years of heart attacks and strokes. Lonseth was in her mid-30s, married, raising three children, and busy with a career in interior design. She recalls her regret and denial in accepting the sad situation. “It was heartbreaking to watch my father, a forest geneticist, function on the level of a child,” she recalled. “I was not as supportive of my mother as I should have been. Occasionally, I would give my mother a break, but I wish now I had done more.” Seven years later, the same reality hit full force again with her husband’s parents. “At first, my husband and I made the mistake of trying to correct his parents’ behavior and attempted to help them learn again what they had lost. That didn’t work. They only became frustrated and more agitated,” she said. So instead, the couple began coming alongside them and joining them in their reality. “We began to try to figure out where they were in their head at the moment — maybe 16 again, or in another part of the world,” she explained. “My cousin told me to ask them, ‘How old are you today?’ Their answers often gave us clues as to how to interact with them.” And finally, it was her mother who got Alzheimer’s. She lost her motor skills as part of her disease, and Lonseth hired an in-home caregiver 20 hours a week. She learned to recruit family members and friends to help out, too. “A neighbor girl was hired to put mom’s dinner in the microwave and chat with her while she ate,” Lonseth related. “As we needed more help, a friend of my daughter’s become the afternoon and evening caregiver. Occasionally, she would take mom to church. Two of my daughters took turns

living with their grandma so the night shift and weekends were covered. I came in every Thursday to give everyone a break.” (She had to take a plane flight weekly to do so.) Throughout all the years of caregiving — however grueling — Lonseth said she also learned a lot about how to handle what seemed like a hopeless situation. “It’s financial, it’s emotional, it’s dealing with the medical system, and it’s planning for the future,” she noted. “You can’t stop it, but you can prepare for it. “Knowing how to communicate is crucial. You need a lot of patience because your loved ones need time to process what you’re saying. Stay on one subject when talking. Pick your battles carefully. And avoid saying no. Instead, say things like ‘I wish we could.’ ‘Wouldn’t that be nice?’ ‘That’s a great idea.’ ‘That sounds fun for next time.’ ”
Lonseth’s other tips for handling the journey
■ Create special moments with your loved one, like going on picnics or sharing music together. ■ Keep a journal of events or things they say, like funny one-liners. ■ Use humor on a daily basis, it goes a long way. ■ Do constant research on the disease as the patient’s needs change. ■ Get professional help to free you up from physical care. ■ Take a break. If you don’t take care of yourself, you can’t take care of others. Lonseth notes that a huge part of the problem in treating Alzheimer’s patients is denial. “Too many people are falling through the cracks and not being diagnosed until they are well into the mid-stage of Alzheimer’s or another type of dementia. Lack of education on the part of family-practice doctors and family members creates problems.”
Resources
■ Lonseth admits there is no single formula or answer to deal with memory disease, but there are many common threads. The Alzheimer’s Association offers a wealth of information, as well as free classes to patients and caregivers.

Pacific Ridge School Educates Students for a Rapidly Changing World
With the pace of change increasing and technology as its primary driver, the adult lives of today’s children will look very different than their parents’. Educating young people to be ready for this fluid, unknown future needs to combine proven, traditional methods with new, innovative approaches. The best environments are those in which students learn how to ask the right questions, discuss and design solutions to complex problems, make commitments, take thoughtful risks, stretch themselves and grow from both their successes and their failures. Attaining these skills can be challenging in schools with traditional programs, large class sizes and shrinking resources. Motivated and curious students are pressed to fit growth opportunities into programs that take place outside of school. Often, they need to choose a single interest to pursue out of many they may have.
performance hall with stage, two meeting rooms and kitchen. For more information or to schedule a tour, please contact us at 858-756-2461 or email Kimberly Owens at members@RSFCC.org. – Linda Durket is the executive director of the RSF Community Center
In a co-curricular service learning program, students develop empathy, leadership and project management expertise in year-long projects. The middle school program and over 40 student-led upper school groups address needs as diverse as ocean pollution, elder care and girls’ education in rural India. Global issues are carefully woven into the curriculum and over 95% of students participate in a year-end global travel program, journeying across the United States and around the world for cultural immersion, service and study. To date, Pacific Ridge students have visited 52 countries on six continents.
At Pacific Ridge School, students in grades 7-12 engage actively with academic subjects while gaining relevant, hands-on practice in essential skills. The school’s mission focuses on academic excellence, ethical responsibility and global engagement – all necessary for leading purposeful lives in the future.
Students at Pacific Ridge have many opportunities to develop skills and follow interests outside of the classroom. The school’s unique weekly schedule and annual calendar include built-in time for service learning, clubs and global education so students can participate on the Model United Nations team while playing soccer, or perform in the annual musical while competing on the robotics team. This approach, known as the Student360 Experience, gives students the opportunity to develop essential skills and explore multiple interests while maintaining balance in their already busy lives.
The “Harkness Table,” an oval table at which 15 students sit alongside their teacher, is the center of academic life at Pacific Ridge. Students share ideas and perspectives, strengthening their speaking, listening and critical thinking
Families interested in learning more about a Pacific Ridge education and the Student360 Experience are invited to attend an Open House on Saturday, November 4, at 1:00pm. To register, visit pacificridge.org.
For parents, investing early in an enriched, forward-looking education can pay tremendous dividends for their children’s success and satisfaction in life.

Nine Months Matter
A
fter more than 40 years of rigorous research on the devastating effects of alcohol on a developing baby, on Sept. 30 Dr. Kenneth Lyons Jones, a UCSD pediatrician and world-renowned expert on alcohol-exposed pregnancies, along with the newly formed Better Beginnings Coalition, kicked off a nationwide campaign to convey that no amount or type of alcohol is safe to drink during pregnancy, according to a press release. Research has confirmed that alcohol does more damage to the developing fetus than any other recreational drug, including cocaine, heroin, and methamphetamine, the press release reported. When a developing baby is exposed to alcohol it can cause brain damage leading to lifelong disabilities both physically and neurodevelopmentaly which are called Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders (FASD). These disabilities often require expensive treatments and supportive services. There is no cure for FASD. The Nine Months Matter launch event, sponsored by the Morrison and Foerster Foundation and Quest Diagnostics, was held Sept. 30 at the La Jolla Beach and Tennis Club. The event kicked off with a one-hour reception followed by a seminar featuring Jones and other local experts. For more information, visit bit.ly/2g2OUcA Online: rsfreview.com

Pacific Ridge School junior Spencer Jones (far right) and his classmates load up supplies to be sent to Puerto Rico.
Pacific Ridge students aid in Puerto Rico recovery Nearly eight tons of supplies were delivered to Puerto Rico recently, thanks to a supply drive held by Pacific Ridge School and Gilead Sciences. In just a week, the school and the biopharmaceutical company collected more than 10,000 items to ship to the hurricane ravaged island. Pacific Ridge junior Spencer Jones spent a year and a half living on the Caribbean island with his family and said he considers the people there like a second family. Jones’ father, Geoff Jones, is the Associate Director of Quality Control at Gilead Sciences. When Spencer heard about the supply drive being held at Gilead, he immediately asked for help from the Pacific Ridge community. The response was astounding. “Every day was like Christmas,” Jones said. Each afternoon around lunch time, he would visit the areas designated as drop-off points and would be overwhelmed by the response from students and their families. More than 16,000 pounds of donations are en route to Puerto Rico right now. Many employees at Gilead Sciences have relatives in Puerto Rico and spent hours collecting and taking inventory of the items. “We are very proud to support the efforts by Spencer and everyone at the Pacific Ridge School who volunteered their time and resources to help with this initiative to assist families in Puerto Rico,” said Carmilia Jimenez, senior research scientist of Biologics Analytical Operations at Gilead Sciences. “We hope these supplies provide much needed resources to those in need.” More than 85 percent of the devastated island is still lacking power, which is why
Spencer used monetary gifts to buy two generators. Pacific Ridge families also donated construction supplies, including a chainsaw, to speed up the rebuilding efforts. “You can’t chop up a fallen tree without tools or on an empty stomach,” he said. Other donated items include food, water, baby supplies, toiletries and pet supplies. The emergency relief provisions are being shipped to a church in Bayamon, which is in the north, and to another church in Manatí, where they will be distributed to citizens. Head of School Dr. Bob Ogle said Jones’ efforts exemplify the Pacific Ridge mission. “Part of our school’s mission is to encourage global perspective and action. Spencer and the entire community have taken the initiative to help the Puerto Rican people who are facing a major crisis,” Dr. Ogle said. On Oct. 11, San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulín Cruz asked the international community to send potable water to counter the spread of disease. Leptospirosis is the suspected cause of four deaths in Puerto Rico, which is contracted through contaminated drinking water. There are 10 more suspected cases. The shipment from Pacific Ridge and Gilead includes 15 pallets of supplies, with four pallets full of potable drinking water and water filters. Jones said he hopes the shipment will help the recovery efforts and aid the people who showed him such warmth as a child. “I hope it can give them one less thing to worry about and help them take care of their kids,” he said.

FROM RACING, B1 Those who attend the Breeders’ Cup will watch the best horses in training compete for year-end honors, including Horse of the Year in the $6 million Breeders’ Cup Classic. The 2017 edition of the Classic is expected to feature last year’s winner, Arrogate, who will take on top-ranked older horse Gun Runner and TVG Pacific Classic winner Collected. There will also be a handful of horses with local connections competing during the two days, including Finest City, last year’s Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Sprint winner who is owned by Tyler and Wayne Seltzer of Rancho Santa Fe; and West Coast, a Classic contender and emerging 3-year-old star who is owned by Rancho Santa Fe’s Gary and Mary West. Post-Breeders’ Cup While the Breeders’ Cup celebrations end Nov. 4, there will still be plenty of action at Del Mar during the following three weeks. “It’s our fourth season of the Bing Crosby (fall) meet,” said Chris Bahr, director of events and promotions. “We’re still
trying to create more awareness throughout the community. We’re looking to keep the momentum, especially after the Breeders’ Cup.” One way Del Mar plans to accomplish that is with the return of concerts. The popular Reggae Fest featuring Iration will be presented on Nov. 18, and rock band The Offspring will perform on Nov. 25. Go to delmarracing.com to check for updates. Two events previously on the Bing Crosby meet calendar will merge into one on Nov. 25 - the Craft Beer, Cider, Cocktail & Wine Fest, to be held in the Seaside Concert Area. There will be dozens of seasonal ales and ciders; local, international and hard-to-find brews; and other libations. For $20, patrons will receive five samples. To supplement the drinks, there will be a Wing Feast, where six vendors will serve three flavors of $1 wings. Also during the fall meet, Del Mar will participate in several charitable events. Visitors who bring a new, unwrapped toy to the Stretch Run admission gates in support of Toys for Tots

on Nov. 19 will receive free admission that day. Those who donate nonperishable food for the San Diego Food Bank on Closing Day (Nov. 26) will also be able to enter at no charge.

The show is structured around Poe’s “The Masque of Red Death” — in the narrative there is a masquerade ball and guests travel through seven rooms. Within the piece, viewers will travel through different scenes or modes based on Poe tales and poems. The poem “The Bells” is interpreted by a vocal symphony and “The Tell-Tale Heart” is told with shadow puppets. For “The Cask of Amontillado,” the ensemble brings to life a carnival scene where a man gets buried alive. At rehearsal on Oct. 11, a couple weeks out from opening night, McCarty was still devising the movements of the players on stage during the mode of the poem “Annabel Lee,” figuring out how the performers would evoke the wind or waves of “a tomb by the side of the sea” as death comes for the doomed Annabel.

Aruna Run 5K The inaugural San Diego Aruna Run 5K on Oct. 21 in Encinitas will benefit the Aruna Project, a U.S. nonprofit whose mission is to bring and sustain freedom through employment marked by holistic care to sexually enslaved women in India.

Free Manure Management & Composting Workshop Solana Center presents a Manure Management and Composting Workshop Saturday, Nov. 4, 10 a.m.-noon, that will show you how to both protect your local watershed and produce a fantastic soil product from large animal manure. Composting is easy and inexpensive. Improper disposal of manure is unsightly, breeds flies, may create health hazards, and can contaminate local streams and water sources. Using composted manure on your garden and landscaping will help your plants thrive and conserves water too! Workshop will also cover basics of traditional composting, as well as the particulars associated with composting manure on-site. This workshop is funded by the County of San Diego. Pre-registration required. Location: Pathfinder Farm, 2101 Marilyn Ln, San Marcos, 92069. Register at: bit.ly/2yqPJnj “Who wants to be death?” McCarty asked and eight willing hands plunged into the air. The sequence and set of the show may still be shrouded in mystery, but the content is definitely for mature audiences, McCarty said, as much of Poe’s work is grizzly and gruesome and the dark writer found “a sense of joy in the macabre.” And it is no mystery that the performance will be undeniably unique, Canyon Crest Academy-style. “CCA is a pretty remarkable place,” McCarty said, comparing it to both a university-level program and the best school sandbox that guest artists could possibly play in. “I think CCA is quite an exceptional program in terms of its talent and willingness to take risks, which in many ways is what theatre is all about.” For tickets or more information, visit cca-envision.org.
