Association board votes to grant condo owners Golf Club membership rights By Karen Billing All Rancho Santa Fe Covenant condominium owners are free to swing away as the RSF Association board voted 7-0 on April 17 in favor of granting condominium owners RSF Golf Club membership rights. The RSF Association board had believed that a community-wide vote would be required to change the club membership rights of condominium owners but, upon review by staff and counsel, it was determined that the rights could be granted

by simply amending the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), essentially the contract between the RSF Association and the RSF Golf Club. “We have a limited footprint of which to draw from and anything to increase that footprint will help with the membership,” said RSF Golf Club Board President Mike Phillips. “It’s a matter of equity. This is a common-sense solution to something that’s been kind of a thorn in the side for folks for a long time.”

“It’s not just that the RSF Golf Club is asking to drive more membership,” said RSF Association President Philip Wilkinson. “I think fundamentally it’s the right thing to do. If you pay an assessment, you should be able to join the Golf Club and you should have the right to vote.” The board’s action on April 17 did not give condominium owners the right to vote. Establishing voter rights for all condominium owners is a separate issue and would require an amendment to the articles

of incorporation and the bylaws through a vote of the membership. Currently, there are 19 condominium developments in the Covenant with 88 total units. Of the 88 units, 38 have voting and golf rights, and 23 condo residents have golf memberships. RSF Association members Dick Doughty and John Ingalls said they did not feel the Association board’s actions were correct in amending the MOU, and that the matter should have gone to a community-

Some RSF Tennis Club members object to locating pool and fitness center at club By Karen Billing As an exploratory committee looks at the possibility of a potential pool and fitness center in Rancho Santa Fe, a variety of options are on the table as far as location this early on in the process. While no location has officially been proposed, some members of the RSF Tennis Club heard that one option would house the facility at their club so they visited the RSF Association board to express their objection. “We don’t want the pool and fitness center squeezing us out of our location and taking our tennis

courts,” said Barbara McClanahan, president of the RSF Tennis Club board. Tennis club members, many of them dressed to hit the courts, were part of a standing-room only crowd during member input at the April 17 RSF Association meeting, and a petition was circulating gathering signatures against the possible recreation facilities being located at the club. “I am very sensitive to the club’s success and the satisfaction,” said RSF Association Director Heather Slosar, who serves as the chair of the committee. “The com-

mittee has heard the Tennis Club’s objections and has found alternative locations for the pool and fitness center. We hear you and we’re listening to you. We’re trying to make everyone happy.” Slosar said they are very early in the process, and asked that the community give them a little leeway which she understands is difficult as information trickles out in pieces, making it hard to distinguish between facts and rumors.

wide vote. Ingalls said that at the RSF Association’s April 3 meeting there was a lot of discussion about the high “take rate” among condominium owners, given the fact that 23 of 38 condominium owners eligible for Golf Club memberships are members of the club, a higher rate than the Covenant as a whole. Phillips said that he doesn’t think that the Golf Club is going to experience a “windfall” of memberSee CONDO, Page AA2

Water district officials spar over budget By Joe Tash A discussion of the Santa Fe Irrigation District’s budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1 triggered a lively debate over whether the agency is doing enough to cut expenses in the face of rising operating costs. The proposed $37.47 million budget for 2014-15 includes no water rate increase for the second year in a row, but district officials said they will not be able to make a previously planned $1 million contribution to the district’s capital improvement reserve fund. The reserve contribution was part of the rationale given in late 2012 when the district’s board approved a 6 percent rate increase for customers that took effect Jan. 1, 2013. Director Greg Gruzdowich, who has opposed rate increases and advocated for cost-cutting since his election to the board in 2012, said he believes the district should stick by its decision to contribute to the capital improvement (CIP) reserve fund. Instead of skipping the payment, he said, the district should cut expenses. “There’s a temptation to use the CIP reserve as a piggy bank,” Gruzdowich said, contending that his predecessors, when voting to raise rates in November 2012, said half the money from the 6 percent hike should go into capital reserves. “We basically are deviSee WATER, Page AA2

By Karen Billing Rancho Santa Fe Association Manager Pete Smith has announced his decision to retire, ending a 23year run in the Covenant. Smith, who has been on sick leave recently, announced he is stepping away at the April 17 Alumni Dinner, in front of about 50 current and former Association directors and Covenant Design Review Committee members. “I told them I accepted a new position,” Smith said. “It’s full time and the pay is not as good, but the benefits are very good and my new title is Grandpa.” All jokes aside, Smith said that he would miss the community of Rancho Santa Fe. “It never was dull. There was always something going on,” Smith said. “Whenever the phone rang you never knew what it was going to be, that was always an exciting part of the

job.” Smith has been the manager of the Association for a little over 18 years, prior to that he spent five years as the manager of the RSF Golf Club. “It was a very, very hard decision to leave,” Smith said. “During my time in Rancho Santa Pete Smith Fe I developed a really good rapport with a lot of the members and they really became friends.” Several of the staff members have also worked alongside Smith for as many years—administrative assistant See SMITH, Page AA2

RSF Association sees uptick in voter registration By Karen Billing About 72 percent of the Covenant community is now registered to vote, a total of 1,945 members. RSF Association President Philip Wilkinson said that 241 new registered voters have been added since Feb. 28, bringing up the previous 62 percent voter registration. Wilkinson said they had erroneously estimated only 50 percent were registered. The board made voter registration a priority and sent out mailers; other community members had handed out flyers and taken out ads in this publication. “I think our efforts to accomplish the goal to get everybody registered is paying off,” Wilkinson said. By the RSF Association’s current estimates, there are approximately 765 eligible voters that are not registered. Wilkinson said he does not know how feasible it is to get all of those eligible to register as many have primary residences located out of state. Wilkinson said an RSF Association committee has been formed to review the voter registration process, including ways to make it easier. Acting RSF Association Manager Ivan Holler said secretary Daria Quay had a great idea to act as a personal “concierge” for the eight to 10 new Association members they have every month. Quay will personally walk new residents through the voter registration process to get them registered right away, in addition to informing them about Association amenities.

WATER continued from page 1 ating from that.” But district general manager Michael Bardin blamed increases in operating costs, rather than a failure to tighten the district’s belt, for the inability to make the reserve contribution. “This budget is very, very tight,” Bardin said. “Our labor budget is lower than in 2008. We can’t get any tighter than that. “We’ve squeezed it every which way from Sunday. This is our best cut. We don’t bring you (a budget) with any fat in it,” Bardin said. According to Bardin and a staff report included in the board’s agenda for its meeting on Thursday, April 17, operating costs are projected to rise $810,000 next year, due to a number of factors, including expected rate increases from the district’s

water suppliers. Also adding to the increased costs are maintenance projects, conservation efforts and a cost-of-service study that will look at the district’s revenue requirements for the coming years. Other board members said they were satisfied with the district’s efforts to contain costs, such as leaving five vacant staff positions unfilled. Director Alan Smerican said Gruzdowich’s comments imply that Bardin and his staff have not already worked hard to contain costs, when in fact they grapple with such issues every day. “Your approach is there’s always something left to cut and that isn’t necessarily true,” Smerican said. However, Gruzdowich charged Bardin and his staff with looking for further savings. “I’d like to see them sharpen their pencils in another iteration.” that the committee had hoped to take the project to an advisory vote in May, but she now feels they will postpone the advisory vote until fall, to let “everything cool down” as there is a lot going on in the Rancho Santa Fe Covenant right now. Dave Vandenberg, a resident who is heavily involved in the RSF Tennis Club, said he was very concerned when he heard a pool and fitness center would take over courts one and two at the club. Vandenberg runs a 501c3 non-

Bardin said staff will scrutinize the budget before the board’s May meeting for opportunities to cut expenses, but didn’t expect the budget proposal to change significantly. The district’s proposed spending plan includes operating costs of $23.1 million, capital projects totaling $13 million, and debt service of $1.3 million. Of the operating costs, the biggest items are imported water purchase for $8.4 million and labor costs of nearly $6.2 million. Between 2004 and 2013, the district raised rates each year from 6 and 20 percent. Water bills in the district — and across the state — have basically doubled during that period. One factor in the increase has been hikes in the rates charged by the district’s suppliers, the San Diego County Water Authority and the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California. profit that donates money to R. Roger Rowe School for the middle school to have a tennis program at the club, growing from a dozen kids at the outset to 60 participants. “The facility itself is one of the best in the country,” Vandenberg said. “There’s got to be a way for the committee to enhance the community without diminishing the Tennis Club.” While many RSF Tennis Club members were very opposed to the facility at their club, others said

No increase was imposed in 2014; instead, district officials pulled $1 million from a rate stabilization reserve fund to balance their budget. The district does not propose to tap into that fund again next year. A cost of service study will soon be undertaken to determine the district’s revenue needs over the next five to 10 years, said Jeanne Deaver, the district’s administrative services manager. While no rate increase is currently proposed for 2015, “It could change based on the results of the cost of service study,” she said. If the district does decide to seek a rate increase for next year, it will have to provide advance notice to its customers and hold a public hearing, Deaver said. The Santa Fe district serves 22,000 customers in Rancho Santa Fe, Solana Beach and Fairbanks Ranch. not all Tennis Club members are against the idea. Scott DeGoler, a 10year Tennis Club member, said he didn’t want the board getting the impression the club was anti-community. “There is plenty of space at the Tennis Club. Play is low and we could use the exposure,” DeGoler. “How about looking at a comprehensive plan that makes sense for the entire community.” RSF resident Kathy Stumm said she felt DeGoler’s mention that play was

SMITH continued from page 1 Nadine Garcia was his food and beverage manager at the Golf Club when he started 23 years ago, RSF Patrol Chief Matt Wellhouser was working in RSF at that time, as was secretary Daria Quay. “The Association staff members are great, great people,” Smith said. Smith leaves the Association while many different issues are playing out, such as the Garden Club purchase vote, the upcoming board of directors election, and the potential for a new pool and fitness center. “The Association has and will always go through different cycles, but what you really have is a large group of people that truly love their community,” Smith said. “My hope is that there’s always room for open conversation on all issues, that’s what makes it such a good community. Having a lot of discussion and debates is a real positive and far more gets done

CONDO continued from page 1 ships by granting condominium owners membership rights immediately, but as condominiums turn over the amendment creates an opportunity to give added value to those properties and grow the club’s memberships in the future. RSF Association Board Director Rochelle Putnam agreed that this was really a longer-term strategy to

One Tennis Club member, Suzy Schaefer, wanted to know how much money was being spent on this exploratory work. In February, the board approved $40,000 for the consultant Club Mark to help facilitate an outreach

when people are civil as opposed to being not civil. It’s just so counterproductive to not sit down and have an open and honest conversation. Everyone here wants the best for the community.” In his retirement, don’t expect Smith to sit around at home. An accomplished runner, he is currently training with his daughter to run the America’s Finest City Half Marathon in August and will spend some time learning how to swim to compete in the Carlsbad Triathlon this summer. Smith will also do his annual rim-to-rim hiking trip of the Grand Canyon next month, with several Association members joining him. In this week’s RSF Association President’s Corner (see page A4), RSF Association Board President Philip Wilkinson said “On behalf of the Association membership, the board and the staff would like to thank Pete for his many contributions over the past 20 years. He will be greatly missed.”

A condominium owner can designate a renter a social fee membership for dining use of the Golf Club only, Castro said.

RSF Association President Philip Wilkinson said they aim to keep the work under $20,000 and Slosar said the committee members are doing their best to do any of the work they can themselves. “I’m very conscious of the cost to the community for something we might end up not wanting,” Slosar said.

Section A

Solana Santa Fe teacher named district’s ‘Teacher of the Year’ By Karen Billing Solana Santa Fe Elementary School fourth grade teacher Monica Rainville is the Solana Beach School District “Teacher of the Year.” In her spirited, goal-oriented classroom, she takes her young students through legendary UCLA Coach John Wooden’s “Pyramid of Success,” teaching them to perform at their best when their best is required and as Coach Wooden said, their best is required each day. “I promote the building blocks of success for the future,” Rainville said. “I think of children as our future and want to give them the skills, confidence and drive to make their lives successful.” Rainville found out about her honor at an “emergency staff meeting” – she caught on about what was happening when not only the superintendent and assistant superintendent were present with flowers, but her husband arrived as well. She was surprised and shocked. “I broke down in tears,” Rainville said and tears up again in the retelling. “It’s just such an honor to be recognized by your peers for the hard work that we all do. We all work so hard. It’s just a very humbling experience to be around so many teachers with years of experience who have touched my life so much and helped me become the teacher that I am. I’m overwhelmed with emotion and very honored.” Rainville said it was always her dream as a little girl to become a teacher, but in college she changed course and earned a bachelor of science degree in community health education. She went to work at the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Protection District as its first public education officer. Then known as Monica Adams, she worked at the district for four years and met her future husband, Captain Greg Rainville. As part of her job with the fire district, she was often on school campuses like Solana Santa Fe’s, presenting the fire safety education program she developed to the students. Increasingly, she felt like she wanted to contribute more toward the greater good of the community and it was her husband who encouraged her to go back to school and become a teacher after seeing how much she enjoyed being on campus with the students. “I really feel like my experience outside of teaching has allowed me to teach from a different lens,” said Rainville, who also worked for nonprofits and private corporations. This is Rainville’s seventh year teaching. She started her career teaching kindergarten in the Vista Unified School District, but has been with the Solana Beach District for the last six years, also teaching kindergarten at Solana Vista School for one of those years. She said it was hard to leave Solana Vista because she loved the close-knit campus and the warm teachers,

Solana Santa Fe teacher Monica Rainville was named the Solana Beach School District “Teacher of the Year.” Photo/Karen Billing but she had the opportunity for a new challenge at a new grade level with fourth grade, right when Solana Santa Fe was starting to work with one-to-one ipad deployments. “The carrot was dangled,” she said. Rainville said she does miss the joy and magic of kindergarten and will sometimes walk the kindergarten hallway and feel nostalgic from the scent of crayons and paint. But she does appreciate the fourth grade level as well, as her “super sweet and loving” 9 and 10 year olds are transitioning to that upper elementary age. “I get to prepare them to be organized, responsible for learning and get them ready for the next steps,” Rainville said. “It’s amazing the conversations we have in here…last week we had a candid conversation about college and they brought it up.” Rainville teaches with a lot of energy in class. She said they laugh and sing made-up songs, but she also runs a pretty tight ship. She said one former student described her as “firm but fun.” Rainville said she’s always planting little seeds and See TEACHER, page A26

Concerns voiced over anti-RSF Garden Club purchase mailer at RSF Association board meeting By Karen Billing Rancho Santa Fe Covenant residents recently received a packet at their home sent through FedEx from a group opposed to the RSF Association’s purchase of the RSF Garden Club sale. The literature inside has sparked some concerns. “You all got 11 pages full of lies,” said RSF Garden Club President Helen DiZio during public comment at the RSF Association’s April 17 meeting. DiZio said she was very upset and disappointed that RSF Association Director Craig McAllister had signed his name to a list of signatures urging a “no” vote in the packet. “Where are the ethics for board members? And how can you sit up there and know you’re misleading the community and saying you’re not against the purchase and ‘we just want a vote?’” DiZio said. DiZio emailed McAllister on the issue last week, asking how he could sign onto a packet full of inaccuracies and alleged that McAllister admitted there was information that was incorrect. McAllister acknowledged that he signed the letter, and said that he was sorry to have disappointed DiZio and that he had indeed changed his mind. In e-mails to DiZio, McAllister said that he took issue with the fact that the RSF Garden Club could leave the building by giving two years notice, but the RSF Association doesn’t have the same exit option. “I would not personally make this purchase with my own money because of this inequity and the attendant potential encumbrance and I decided I could not recommend others to make the purchase with the Association’s money,” McAllister wrote in his e-mail to DiZio. He did not agree with DiZio that he signed a packet with “a lot” of inaccuracies. “Yes, I mentioned that I felt there were inaccuracies. These were specific to the pool comment,” McAllister explained. “While the statement of that flyer regarding the pool appears to be factually correct — that the Association does not have sufficient funds to build a pool and fitness center at the same time — the pool committee is still exploring other ways to approach financing of the pool that could possibly allow for both to be done at the same time and I felt that the statement was incomplete.” RSF resident Deb Plummer also said she was disappointed to see McAllister’s signature and also by the fact that the packages were delivered to their doorsteps via FedEx. Plummer said there is a process in the RSF AssociaSee MAILER, page A26

RSF Association President’s Corner: Pete Smith announces retirement; April 17 board meeting highlights BY PHILIP WILKINSON, RANCHO SANTA FE ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT Last Thursday, April 17, Pete Smith announced that after 20 years of service he had decided to retire. I asked Pete if I could include something in my upcoming Review column and Pete expressed his feelings to me and others about retirement saying, “It has been an honor and a pleasure to serve the homeowners of Rancho Santa Fe and to work with such a fine and capable staff.” He also said that he was proud of all we have accomplished together, and that he felt that the goals he had set have been achieved. Pete told us, “It is hard to say goodbye, but the time is right for me to transition the role of manager. I am looking forward to traveling and enjoying more time with my family.” On behalf of the Association membership, the board and the staff would like to thank Pete for his many contributions over the past 20 years. He will be greatly missed. The board’s executive committee will start interviewing executive search firms this week to get the RSF Association Manager recruitment process started. The April 17 board meeting highlights were: Director Heather Slosar provided a brief update on the Pool & Fitness Center Advisory Committee’s exploratory process and progress, and reiterated that nothing regarding a site location or design has been decided. While several Association members raised questions at this meeting about timing, location, costs, etc., it must be reiterated that this is currently an exploratory endeavor

Philip Wilkinson and the committee is seeking input from anyone wishing to be involved. Heather has done a wonderful job with her all-volunteer team exploring all the possibilities. After further review of the non-voting Association member list, it was determined that approximately 72 percent of all eligible members are currently registered to vote. As of April 15, there were 1,954 registered voters of the estimated 2,700 total eligible. In-

terestingly, approximately 35 percent of the members currently not registered to vote have mailing addresses outside of RSF, which could indicate that their primary residence is not RSF. The board voted (7-0) to approve a modification to the Association Memorandum of Understanding with the Golf Club to allow golf membership rights for all condominium property owners in the Covenant. The board agreed that it is fundamentally wrong that condo owners pay Association assessments and don’t have the right to vote or join the Golf Club; that amounts to taxation without representation. Now that the Golf Club membership issue has been approved for all condo owners we will try to address their voting rights. Representatives from the

Golf Club Board of Governors repeated their request at both public meetings that all condo owners be given the right to join the Golf Club. The board also approved the Compensation Committee bylaw language which will be mailed to all the members 15 days prior to the May 15 public hearing on the matter. The Compensation Committee will regularly review salaries, wages, benefits and all human resources policies effecting the Association employees. As always, we look forward to member input.

RSF Association staff member Chris Livoni leaving Chris Livoni, the RSF Association’s associate planner, is leaving the Association effective April 24. Livoni is leaving for a position at the county. “We’re really sad to see him go but it’s a great opportunity for him,” Acting RSF Association Manager Ivan Holler said. — Reported by Karen Billing

By Pat Sherman More than 600 fans of Kiss vocalist and guitarist Paul Stanley descended on Warwick’s Bookstore in La Jolla recently for a chance to have the KISS vocalist and 2014 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee sign copies of his new memoir, “Face the Music: A Life Exposed.” Stanley, 62, took time earlier in the week to speak with this newspaper group about his new book, in which he recounts being born without a right ear (a condition known as microtia), his dysfunctional family and being ridiculed as a child. The book is also filled with pointed criticisms of his band mates — including alleged antiSemitism by original Kiss members Ace Frehley and Peter Criss, and lying and cheating by co-founder and longtime collaborator Gene Simmons. “Ultimately, if you start to drown me then I have to let you go,” he said of the off-again, on-again participation of Frehley and Criss. “Kiss has always been my baby, as far as I’m concerned. … At the end of the day, I’ll do whatever I have to, to keep it moving forward and that really is the mindset that got me through a lot of very difficult times.” Told that many fans consider his 1978 solo album and Kiss’s “Dynasty” (1979) to be rock masterpieces, Stanley laughed. “Well, I’d agree with half of that,” he said. “I think ‘Dynasty’ is a good album. I think there was some great songs on that, but I certainly am a little partial to my solo album.” His personal favorite, he said, is the album that put Kiss on the global map — 1975’s “Alive!,” recorded at Detroit’s Cobo Hall. “It was the giant step that put us into the international hierarchy and, honestly, the last two albums

Riley Sullivan, 11 (left), and sister, Molly, 9, of Rancho Santa Fe, pose with Kiss vocalist Paul Stanley. (2009’s “Sonic Boom” and 2012’s “Monster”) mean the world to me because they are built on our past and stand firmly in the present and future.” An abstract painter who has held exhibitions in La Jolla, including the former Wentworth Gallery on Prospect Street, Stanley said he took a hiatus from the canvas. “The very reason I did it in the first place was to get away from pressure, and all of the sudden I had shows every month and there was a fair amount of pressure to produce. I didn’t want that to taint something I kind of found as a refuge … but I’m certainly painting and will start doing shows again.” With numerous hits to his name, including “Rock and

Roll All Night,” “Detroit Rock City” and “I Was Made For Lovin’ You,” Stanley used his Hall of Fame induction with Kiss this month as an opportunity to call into question what many in the industry consider the organization’s jaded nomination and selection process. He asserts that Rock Hall organizers, having shunned Kiss for 14 years, didn’t even provide passes for them upon their arrival. So, how was Kiss was received by its industry peers at the induction ceremony in Brooklyn? “Most bands, from all different genres, have really championed us,” he said. “The people who don’t understand us and have done their best to squash us are critics — and how much credence can you put in somebody’s opinion who doesn’t pay for a ticket or pay for an album? The people who I consider important were all terrific and very beyond cordial, very happy about our being inducted. I see those as my peers and don’t worry about the rest. “There’s bands that I might not necessarily embrace musically, but the numbers speak for themselves,” Stanley continued. “We’re not here to have a contest of who knows the most obscure act. If the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame were the ‘Rock and Roll Hall of Fame of the People,’ it would reflect album sales; it would reflect (an artist’s) impact on other bands.” Prior to the Rock Hall ceremony, organizers insisted that Stanley and Simmons perform in makeup with original guitarist Frehley (of San Diego) and drummer Criss, though they have long been replaced, in large part due to their well-documented excesses with drugs and alcohol. Though Frehley and Criss were for it, Stanley and Sim-

Record-breaking Cathedral Catholic High School hurdler receives surprise call from Olympic champion Gail Devers By Rob LeDonne It was an afternoon like any other recently when Cathedral Catholic High School junior Hannah Labrie-Smith was sitting in her second period class and the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s counselor pulled her out of the room. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought she wanted to talk about college or something,â&#x20AC;? Labrie-Smith said. Instead, she was whisked to the Communications Directorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office where there, on the phone, was retired three-time Olympic track and field champion Gail Devers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My heart dropped and my face went totally red,â&#x20AC;? LabrieSmith said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was speechless because I was not expecting to talk to her at all. She was giving me words of encouragement and it was really amazing. I still havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly wrapped my mind around it... that it actually happened.â&#x20AC;? Deversâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; call came after Labrie-Smith, a star member of Cathedral Catholic High Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s track and field team, broke Deversâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 31-year-old record in the 300 meter hurdles on Saturday, April 12, when she finished second with a time of 42.24 seconds at the Arcadia Invitational â&#x20AC;&#x201D; .02 under Deversâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; mark â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a record that has stood since Devers attended Sweetwater High School in National City. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been such an inspiration for me in the past,â&#x20AC;? said Labrie-Smith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I broke it, it was so exciting. I was just super honored.â&#x20AC;? Making the record-breaking time even more impressive is that Labrie-Smith didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dive into the world of track and field until her freshman year, and only then was it just by happenstance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My older sister was on the team and did hurdles, so after school Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d have to wait for her to finish up,â&#x20AC;? explained Labrie-Smith of her humble beginnings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After awhile it started to interest me.â&#x20AC;? From there, Labrie-Smith fell in love with the sport and practiced both on and off the field before meets. In order to perfect her form, she studied videos of track stars on YouTube â&#x20AC;&#x201D;

CCHS hurdler Hannah Labrie-Smith. Photo by Sean M. Haffey, special to the Rancho Santa Fe Review including footage of Gail Devers, who won two gold medals at the Atlanta Olympics in 1996, and one gold medal in Barcelona in 1992. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d watch these videos as guidance for my own hurdling,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;At a certain point, I realized my running was close to her high school time.â&#x20AC;? By the time Labrie-Smith was a sophomore she was chasing Deversâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; record, and last year she came within a fraction of a second of beating it. Undeterred from there, Labrie-Smith continued to follow her training routine in the hopes that one day she would break the record. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Depending on how many meets we have, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have one or two hard hard workout days, and one or two technical days,â&#x20AC;? says Labrie-Smith of her routine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also have coaches specific to each individual event. Our

W A R E H O U S E

hurdle coach, Bob Vilvan, helps with every aspect of the race.â&#x20AC;? Finally, Labrie-Smithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record-breaking day came during the Arcadia Invitational, a renowned track and field meet that takes place annually every April at Arcadia High School, east of Los Angeles, where many records are set and broken. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of our biggest competitions,â&#x20AC;? notes Labrie-Smith, who got off to a rocky start by falling over at one point during the Invitational. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be competing against so many good runners, so that really pushed me.â&#x20AC;? When it was time for the 300 meter hurdles event, LabrieSmith was ready: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was just focusing on staying consistent with my stride pattern, and the rest fell into place.â&#x20AC;? After completing the event, Labrie-Smith didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize she actually beat the record until people started congratulating her. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fathom it... I still donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t,â&#x20AC;? she said. (Nevadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tiana Bonds won the event at 41.35.) Throughout it all, Labrie-Smith credits her parents and Coach (Dan Geiger) for their support. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone is super encouraging,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My parents keep me grounded and want to see me competing against myself, getting better in my own running style, and keep beating my own times. The biggest part is that I need to keep pushing myself to be the best version of me I can be.â&#x20AC;? As for whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s next, Labrie-Smith says in addition to getting her time down even lower, she plans on attending college and joining a collegiate track team (though sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not sure where yet.) Other than that, a life goal is to continue to follow in Deversâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; footsteps and join the U.S. Olympic team one day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If that ever came my way, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be honored,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m pretty excited with what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done so far; I keep on surprising myself with my own success.â&#x20AC;?

The Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund members are rolling up their sleeves, sharpening their pencils, and together are prepared to make some tough choices. The two reviewing committees, one focused on Education and Economic Development and the other on Social Services, have narrowed down over 100 grant requests to 10 potentially game-changing programs. On Thursday, April 24, potential grant recipients will now have an opportunity to share their unique approach to solving needs in the local community with the full membership of the Women’s Fund. The event is open to all Rancho Santa Fe women. The RSFWF membership will then vote individually for the programs each woman believes will offer the greatest impact on the community. Depending on the amount requested by each organization in their grant proposal, eight to 10 organizations will be able to put a new program into action, expand a program that is working well or hire more people to continue the great work that they have been doing. To briefly highlight the types of proposals to be presented by the final 10 grantee organizations for funding, there are five Social Services programs. These include programs for an after-school program for kindergarten-aged children from diverse low-income backgrounds, a parenting skills program for parents of students in a tutoring program, a precision instrument machinist technology program for the unskilled, purchase of a service truck for a construction skills program for troubled youth, and setup of two life achievement centers offering intensive, comprehensive workshops that teach financial skills, selfsufficiency training and offer employment placement to the underserved. There are also five Education and Economic Development programs to be presented on Thursday, April 24. These

include a program pairing high-risk youth with corporate-sponsored or universitybased mentors who will impart perspectives on completing a secondary education and how to succeed in business; a tri-tiered program for seriously ill and disabled children providing them with muchneeded medical equipment, “belly bands” to secure their IV’s and room makeovers when they must spend most of their time there; a program providing transportation to treatment appointments for children with cancer and their families; a program providing outdoor adventure exposure and environmental stewardship training to children in poverty stricken areas who would otherwise not have access to activities such as surfing, kayaking, rock climbing, backpacking, etc.; and an intense, four-week job readiness training program and placement service with follow-up case management to those who may otherwise be considered “unemployable.” The RSF Women’s Fund always welcomes new members. The more members, the more positive impact we can have on the community. If you live in Rancho Santa Fe and are interested in seeing what we are all about, please come to this meeting. This meeting is Thursday, April 24, from 9:30 until noon at the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club. Coffee and pastries will be served. Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund events are open to all women living in Rancho Santa Fe who have an interest in philanthropy. The mission of the Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund is to educate, inspire and increase the number of women committed to philanthropy in order to strengthen the community and impact lives through informed, focused, collective giving.

Local soaring enthusiast chronicles Gliderport’s rich history in new book By Pat Sherman Gary Fogel has captured his passion for flight — and the place he became enamored with it — in a new book filled with photographs and facts about the Torrey Pines Gliderport, on the coast just north of La Jolla. Released this month by Arcadia Publishing (as part of its Images of America historical series), Fogel’s book follows San Diego’s history as the “Air Capital of the West,” beginning with glider flights in the 1880s by John J. Montgomery, which San Diego’s Montgomery Field airport is named after. (Fogel co-authored a book about the aviation pioneer in 2012 with Montgomery’s great grandnephew, Craig Harwood, titled, “Quest for Flight: John J. Montgomery and the Dawn of Aviation in the West.”) Montgomery, the first pilot in country to fly a glider (near San Diego’s Otay Mesa border), never flew at Torrey Pines, though his exploits put San Diego on the map with aviation enthusiasts from around the country, Fogel explained. “They recognized that this was an important place (for gliding experiments) because of the geography and the wonderful climate and the daily sea breezes,” he said. While gliding and hang gliding in the early 1900s typically involved a person running off the top of a hill and gliding to the bottom, “experiencing flight maybe five feet off the ground, being very happy that nothing terrible happened and you made a successful landing,” Fogel said people gradually came to understand aerodynamics and wind currents well enough to remain aloft for extended periods of time. By the 1930s, Torrey Pines’ strong coastal breezes had made it an epicenter for the competitive air sport of soaring (often used interchangeably with gliding), in which pilots seek to remain airborne while flying unpowered aircraft known as gliders or sailplanes, relying only on rising air currents in the atmosphere. “If you know where to find those kinds of currents, you can take your motor-less plane and launch yourself into that upward air and maintain your altitude or even gain altitude above your point of takeoff,” explained Fogel, a 1986 La Jolla High School graduate who as a boy began flying radio-controlled sailplanes at Torrey Pines with his father, Dr. Larry Fogel. The CEO of a computer science company, Fogel also teaches an introductory aerospace engineering course at San Diego State University and serves as a historian for the local chapter of the Associated Glider Clubs of Southern California (an group of manned glider enthusiasts). Though Fogel also pilots manned gliders, his primarily love remains the model unmanned craft he learned to

As radio technology improved, the models became more precise in their ability to mimic the functions of manned sailplanes. Gary Fogel Collection. operate with his father, weekends at Torrey Pines. “In the 1950s here in San Diego there were a lot of airplane companies — Ryan Aeronautical Company and Consolidated Aircraft. Some of the clubs also had amateur (ham) radio operators. They had the audacity to think that maybe if we stuck a radio into a model airplane we’d be able to control it from the ground and try to keep it aloft for as long as possible,” said Fogel, who in 1995 set a national radio-controlled sailplane distance record, flying a model glider from Torrey Pines south to Scripps Pier while walking along the beach. In the early 1990s, Fogel and his father helped preserve the gliderport by securing local, state and national historic designations for the site. His first book, 2000’s “Wind and Wings: The History of Soaring in San Diego,” was a detailed text on the history of local aviation, geared more toward soaring enthusiasts. While doing research for it, Fogel was interviewed many pioneering glider pilots that have since passed away, as well as photographers who captured their triumphs and mishaps in the 1950s and ’60s. One of those he befriended, Los Angeles-based sailplane photographer George Uveges, allowed Fogel access to his photo archive for his new book. “I figured it was time there was a book for the public to understand why this is a very important place for America’s history,” Fogel said. “It’s a very inspiring location and a very big tourist attraction for San Diego, and yet a lot of people don’t realize that Charles Lindbergh

was the first person to use the lift there in a sailplane. They don’t understand that many of soaring’s greatest sailplane pilots learned to fly at that location and it’s inspired everything from new ways of designing surfboards to new ways of making aerodynamic cars and saving aircraft with a parachute (recovery system).” Known for his role in the construction of Lindbergh’s Spirit of St. Louis and as a designer of the iconic Airstream travel trailer, aviation pioneer Hawley Bowlus gave gliding lessons to Charles and Anne Lindbergh at Torrey Pines, Mt. Soledad and Point Loma. “In 1929 and 1930, when Hawley Bowlus would make these kind of flights (in San Diego), it was national news that he was able to stay up for an hour or two hours or five hours without a motor,” Fogel said. “It was an incredible accomplishment, kind of like us going to the moon.” Charles Lindbergh set regional distance record for sailplanes at the time, launching from the lift at Torrey Pines Gliderport and landing on the beach at Del Mar. “That’s one of the coolest things ever that Charles Lindbergh was the first one who opened up that place for us to enjoy,” Fogel said. “For others who don’t know that story, it’s just another place — and those are the kinds of things I hope this book can help convey.” A book sale and signing with Gary Fogel will be held from 1-4 p.m. on Sunday, May 18, at Torrey Pines Gliderport, 2800 Torrey Pines Scenic Dr. Visit sandiegofreeflight. com.

TPHS student-run newspaper, The Falconer, wins Best of Show at National High School Journalism Convention An elated TPHS newspaper staff won “Best of Show” at the National High School Journalism Convention, which was held at the San Diego Hilton Bayfront on April 1013. “I cannot describe how immensely proud I am of this staff. So much hard work was put into this issue particularly, while each of you balanced newspaper responsibilities and academic demands,” said the Falconer’s Editor-in-Chief, Cory Lomberg. Torrey Pines journalists, or “Falconerds” as they refer to themselves, produce a 32page paper every month that features a wide range of in-depth stories from sports to local news. “I am so proud to say that we won Best in Show, but even if we didn’t, I would be just as proud of the issue we produced and what this staff achieves on a daily basis,” said Lomberg. Approximately 3,300 student journalists representing 650 high schools attended the conference, which included over 300 breakout sessions, individual writing contests, and the much-anticipated Journalism Education Association (JEA) and National Scholastic Press Association (NSPA) awards ceremonies. “We go into every national convention hoping for an award, but awards aren’t the focus of what we do day in and day out,” TPHS journalism and yearbook adviser Mia Boardman-Smith said. “For me, as adviser, my hope is that the kids will be recognized and rewarded for their hard work, dedication to journalistic principles, and strong writing and designing. When we win, I am so happy for them and always so grateful for their commitment to fulfilling their duty to the school and community as fair and diligent reporters of the truth. They deserve this award” If interested in subscribing to the award-winning TPHS newspaper, The Falconer, email falconer.subscriptions@gmail.com.

Qualities of a good board member Very soon, we, as a community, will be asked to select two new Association board members. This is a privilege and a responsibility to choose wisely. I will be looking for these characteristics in the person I select to be on the board. A strong board member: Good character Strong integrity Calm judgment Strong “people skills” Committed to the best interests of the community as a whole Relevant experience or background Previous volunteer service A weak board member: Unable to put the welfare of the community first Works behind the board to run things his or her way Unable to work with others for the common good Puts individual interests first Impulsive or quick tempered Ineffective with others I care very deeply about Rancho Santa Fe and am looking for two new leaders who will join the other board members to work successfully together for its well being. Please consider these qualities when making your selection. Suzy Schaefer

Hold off on Garden Club building purchase, more time needed to consider options I am a retired math teacher, new to RSF, and am unaccustomed to writing articles for publication, however, I strongly oppose the Garden Club building purchase and would like to take this opportunity to express my point of view. About two months ago, some friends and I attended a meeting at the Garden Club hoping to learn the pros and cons of the purchase. At the time, we thought we were attending an open meeting and were unaware that, in fact, the meeting was intended for Garden Club members. In the course of the discussion, we learned something of the history of the Club, the nostalgia associated with the history, and the current status of negotiations. I was particularly alarmed to learn that the Garden Club building is old and deteriorating, and that the annual maintenance and repair costs are soaring. As a result of these costs, Garden Club members are seeing significant funds intended for charitable purposes being directed to repairs. Moreover, Garden Club membership has fallen to an all-time low — 1,500 to 250, which includes many non-Covenant members who do not pay Association dues. As a member of this community, I ask myself how this purchase will benefit the majority of homeowners in the Covenant and how it will enhance our property values? My concern is that this decision over time will be viewed, like Osuna Ranch, as an error in judgment and misuse of Association funds. With legal fees in addition to the purchase price, the funds required for acquisition of the Garden Club building are considerable. To my mind, there are many better uses for our money. I would like to explore the possibility of introducing natural gas as a less expensive alternative to propane. Many families have expressed an interest in a community fitness center. I am hoping that the new antennas installed by AT&T will improve our cell, land line, and internet service, but more funds may be needed to achieve an acceptable level of service. I am not advocating one expenditure over another. I am advocating that we hold off on the Garden Club building purchase and give ourselves time to consider all of our options so that our money truly enhances our experiences as residents of the Covenant. As expressed in the 10-page packet delivered to my home, “Money is a finite resource. Let us decide together what the best and most fruitful investments are for the future of our community.” Carole Warren

A novel idea for Covenant board No garden club. No pool. Lower our dues! A past board president recently said that would never happen. Do they forget the recession? I am sure many Covenant residents’ finances remember the recession. As a golf member, I am not willing to give up one yard of my golf course or one square foot of the golf building for a pool. Why would I expect the tennis membership to give up courts for the pool? My sympathy goes to the owners who paid a premium for their condo with golf privileges. You just lost your premium due to the self-serving board. Ally Wise Harney

KISS continued from page A5 mons declined. “We don’t jump through hoops for anybody,” Stanley insisted. “(Rolling Stone magazine and Rock and Roll Hall founder) Jann Wenner has hated us from Day 1, has never put us on the cover (incidentally, until this month) and has chosen to ignore us as best as possible over the years, telling his writers not to write about us, and even going as low as not acknowledging an obituary for (former Kiss drummer) Eric Carr, who died of heart cancer at 40 years of age, after playing to millions of people and playing on multiplatinum albums. That’s not an oversight — it was carried by every other media. It’s just malicious and meanspirited. So, between Jann Wenner and a burnout like (music critic) Dave Marsh — that’s the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. It’s just a couple of smart businessmen who may have once loved music, but now see it as an opportunity to be tastemakers. Instead of leaving

the voting to the public, they hide behind this very impressive title, which they trademarked. You could have trademarked it, and then you’d be the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.” Unlike Frehley and Criss, Stanley avoided a life of drugs and alcohol, choosing exercise and fitness. “At this point what I do religiously is a dancer’s workout called Cardio Barre,” he said. “It really revolves around dancer movements (that) are core strengthening and also incredibly toning for your body.” If he had anything approaching a vice, Stanley said, it was sex and being a workaholic. “That was my drug of choice. It got us all onto this Earth, it hurt nobody and it was certainly fun. There’s been no pressure for me,” he maintained. “Success is about a work ethic — and if you’re proud of what you do and you give it your best, then it’s only a matter of how hard you’re willing to work before you succeed.”

MAILER continued from page A1 tion where members do not have to give their addresses if they don’t want to. She said McAllister’s signature was “unbelievable” given that the package was sent to their supposedly protected addresses and, additionally, that the packet sent people to a non-Association website to register to vote. RSF Association Director Larry Spitcaufsky also took offense to the mailer’s allegation that the purchase of the club had been “cloaked in secrecy” and that the deal wasn’t properly vetted. He said the numbers were looked at numerous times and he can’t recall a meeting that went by over the last two years without a “very long discussion” about the finances of the RSF Garden Club and the operating costs. Spitcaufsky said that the property price was de-

termined by two independent appraisals at its current zoning and the average was taken. He said he’s never seen a group of people work this hard to analyze a building purchase. “Don’t say it wasn’t vetted, that is ludicrous to me,” Spitcaufsky said. “No one wants to lie to you or deceive you. If you have questions, get the facts first. We represent you whether you vote for something or vote against something, but get the facts first.” RSF Association President Philip Wilkinson said Spitcaufsky’s point was well taken. “It was vetted, it was beaten to death,” he said. RSF resident Lisa Bartlett argued that she had looked at board agendas and had not found the RSF Garden Club purchase listed formerly on any of them. “Many members don’t understand why it was discussed at an executive level,” said RSF Association

Director Ann Boon, noting that it lent to some of the misperceptions about what happened in those meetings. Several residents remarked at the April 17 meeting that this process has brought out some ugly behavior in the community. “There are so many things going on in this community that are unfair, unethical and really not Rancho Santa Fe,” DiZio said. “I’ve never seen it before…I hope we get through it really quickly.” “Unfortunately, in these environments, not all information gets out in an appropriate manner,” echoed resident Ken Markstein. “Let’s respect each other and not get into constantly battling whose opinion is 100 percent accurate. The personal shots at individuals and constant jabs and anger prolongs the whole process...”

TEACHER continued from page A1 giving the kids key nuggets she hopes they will take with them. Along with Wooden’s Pyramid that she loves, she teaches affirmations such as “Every challenge offers a gift” and “Everyone has the resources to be successful,” and sticks the inspirational words on posters around her room. Rainville loves to read out loud to her students, novels that align with what they’re learning in California history this year. She said it’s great to have technology at their fingertips to visualize what the author is portraying. Last week when the kids couldn’t quite picture what a character looked like wearing a bowler hat and a broad cloth coat in

the Gold Rush, they were able to look it up on their ipads. Implementing the new Common Core State Standards has been a big change and a challenge, but Rainville said she feels very supported by the district in terms of professional learning. “I’ve seen a very positive shift in the learning of students since we dove into the Common Core mindset of depth of knowledge, perseverance and critical thinking. It’s great to see the growth from September to April,” Rainville said. Rainville has a firm belief to set the bar high and enjoys watching her students meet the challenge to achieve it. She has found a family at Solana Santa Fe and values her fourth grade team, fellow teachers, aids, administration and the

health clerk, so essential for a kindergarten teacher to provide Band-Aids for kids’ oft-scraped knees. She’ said she is also grateful for the parents who are so involved and willing to volunteer and take leadership roles. Rainville said the respect and support from parents and staff make Solana Santa Fe a very special place to be and allows her to enjoy her job that much more. “It’s a hard job but it’s such an intrinsically rewarding job and my ultimate goal is to see fourth graders off with a smile to the next grade level and watch them continue to grow and be the greatest successes in life that they can be,” Rainville said. Only seven years in, Rainville said she’s just getting started.

Other important issues include our Association budget, assessments, condo voting privileges, Golf and Tennis Clubs viability, and the vitality of our village and its businesses. Present issues concern community enhancements: Garden Club acquisition, community pool and workout center, and Saturday farmers market. 3. How would you propose to address those issues? The most dangerous threat to our community is fire. Historically, the tug has been between beautifying our town while keeping it fire safe. I will continue to work with the Fire Board to promote its sound fire strategies while keeping within the CC and R’s of our community. The Association board has worked closely with the water board and I plan to continue to address costs and water reclamation for our Golf Club. I support the Garden Club’s acquisition by the Association. I have studied the documents and worked with the Garden Club administration. The purchase is cost-effective, the deal is solid, and the memberships and boards of both the Garden Club and the RSF Association have supported it. The purchase is an enormous value with 34 parking spots and two lots. All proceeds are transferred to the Rancho Santa Fe Foundation, ear-marked to come back to our community. The Association, with a vote from its membership, can sell the property whenever it wishes. With a recommenda-

tion from our staff and thorough discussion by our board on condo voting rights, I will be equipped to make a decision. I do not have a bias. We are a “home town” because of our Village. I intend to continue the good relationship with our merchants in order to keep it viable and prosperous. Parking and the farmers market will continue to be reviewed during the coming months. A community pool and fitness center would be a great enhancement to our community. I look forward to the report from the Pool Committee on location and costs. If the majority then votes in favor of it, I will happily support it. 4. Do you agree with the way the Association operates? Last year’s RSF Association residents survey gives an A+ to our Association governance and staff, as well as I do. Of course the system is not perfect, but over the past 36 years I have been an Association member, I have seen issues, some heated but civil, come and go and resolve. I have seen positive change and have watched our Covenant thrive. Protecting and preserving what we have also has been high on the list on every survey taken as far back as I can remember. We have had transparency and we have a staff who has given unlimited amounts of time and dedication. The cost of operation continues to require regular review as it has every year. One of the unexpected challenges facing our Association board has been the extent of the negativity and antics which has hampered the effectiveness of our board and staff. We have

recently had a president of the board removed by her board, and our staff is kept busy with ongoing requests from some members for research into a variety of subjects which keeps our employees, at a great cost to the Association, working for a few individual members instead of the majority. This issue must be addressed. 5. How do you think your experience can help some of the issues facing the RSF Association? Because we have a solid Covenant and governing documents, and a history of operating successfully, the fix will be an easy one. It all comes down to leadership and sense of community. We currently have some wonderful board members with whom I hope to work in stabilizing our Association and getting it back on course. As a homeowners association, we are under the governance of the county. Our ties with county government are and should continue to be strong in order to deal with our current traffic issues. The RSF Political Interest Committee works as an important liaison with our county officials. As a director I would use my skills and my county associations to promote this relationship. With my professional skills and experience as Chairman of Scripps Mercy Department of Psychiatry and Medical Director for Behavioral Health Services, in running and overseeing large budgets, with my intensive work with communication, arbitration and staff management, I, if elected, look forward to getting to work for our Association.

BOON continued from page A2 with the way the Association operates? If not, what changes do you think need to be made? Much has been said of late regarding the lack of voter registration in our HOA. It goes without saying that we must strive to have everyone registered. More than that, we, as

board members, must take an active role in engaging a broader representation of our residents than has historically been active in Association business. There are many ways that this can be done. I am a good listener and I am asking residents for their ideas! 5.) How do you think your experience can help some of the issues facing the RSF Association? I have broad experience in business and planning that can be important in analyzing issues that come before the board. I have a history and a reputation for reaching out and including the underrepresented. I am challenging the board and all of you to engage in open and honest dialogue. How can we make this beautiful community the great place that we all know it can be? Let’s work together.

EGGLESTON continued from page A3 their decisions. We need a more open government. 5. How do you think your experience can help some of the issues facing the RSF Association? I have run my own business for 27 years and manage 65 employees. I deal with personnel issues, revenue and expense issues, and common sense decision-making every day. I would give the Association the same dedication I put into my work.

CALLAHAN continued from page A3 my primary goal would be to help all the members of our community, including young families and new and long-term residents, feel that they are part of a community that not only embraces tradition but is also open to change. I believe that my extensive board and communication experience will allow me to bring a fresh voice to the challenges that are now facing the RSF Association board. 2. What do you think are the biggest issues facing the RSF community? The biggest issues facing the RSF community include the purchase of the Garden Club, water challenges for the RSF Golf Club, voting rights for condominium owners, exploration of a pool and/or fitness facility, compensation for RSF Association staff, Covenant voter registration, continuing problems of traffic control (round-

abouts or traffic lights) and a farmers market in the Village. 3. How would you propose to address those issues? Since ballots have already been mailed to voting members of the community, the purchase of the Garden Club will now be determined by majority vote. Water challenges for the RSF Golf Club, a major asset of the Covenant, should be a priority for the new Association board who will need to work closely with the Golf Club board to work to solve this increasing problem. Condo owners were recently given Golf Club privileges by a vote of the Association board but since voting rights are part of RSF Association by -laws, it will need to be a future Association board agenda item for member input. Exploration of a pool/and or fitness facility is simply that right now, but because enough residents have expressed an interest, it should be at least a

consideration. A committee has been formed to address the traffic control issue as well as a Compensation Committee. Finally, the Association board recently voted to allow a farmers market a nine-month trial to determine its viability. 4. Do you agree with the way the RSF Association operates? If not, what changes do you think will be needed? I do agree with the way the RSF Association operates. 5. How do you think your experience can help some of the issues facing the RSF Association? I believe that my management and communication skills, along with my years of community service and extensive board experience, will allow me to make a positive contribution to the RSF Association board. I know how to work as part of a team and have the ability to sort out difficult and controversial problems in a professional and civil manner.

Pannikin Coffee & Tea will close in Flower Hill Promenade on May 31. Pannikin has been at Flower Hill since the mid-1980s. TRE Boutique (formerly The Rare Earth) is the only other store that has been around that long. Pannikin used to be conjoined with BookWorks book store, which closed in 2011 after 35 years — currently the shop shares open borders with Pangaea Outpost and Dallmann Chocolate Boutique. Pannikin will continue to have its coffee shops in La Jolla and Leucadia (inside the yellow, historic Santa Fe Railroad Station building that Holder owns), as well as a shop at San Diego International Airport — they roast the coffee and supply all the baked goods, but the airport shop is run by a company called High Flying Foods. At Flower Hill, the front counter cases were always filled with baked goods such as pies, cakes and giant cookies, espresso drinks named for rock stars like Jimi Hendrix

(four shots of espresso with steamed Mexican chocolate milk and hazelnut syrup), and there was a unique selection of teas. The shop featured quirky décor, such as vintage road signs and airplane propeller proclaiming its coffee had altitude, old wooden stadium seating and a popular wall of window-front seating looking out onto an often-packed outdoor patio. There was a variety of seating spots and tables usually filled with families enjoying meals, students studying or people working on laptops. Holder said the closing of the Flower Hill movie theater (which became Whole Foods Market in the renovation) hurt their business. They used to stay full in the late afternoon until 9 or 10 p.m. at night on the weekends with traffic from movie-goers — Holder said that’s just not the case anymore. See PANNIKIN, page B22

La Jolla Cultural Partners

By Karen Billing Pannikin Coffee & Tea, one of Flower Hill Promenade’s longest-running tenants, will serve its last cup of coffee at its Flower Hill location on May 31. The coffee house has opted not to renew its lease. “We’ve been here a long time and we just couldn’t come to an agreement with the mall management on a fair rent so we didn’t renew our lease,” said owner Shawn Holder. Holder said from a business standpoint, it was an easy decision to make but from an emotional side, it was anything but. “We have many loyal customers and friends,” said Holder, whose son Dempsey is a business partner and in charge of the Flower Hill location. “We will do a great job for them right to the end, we hope everyone will come until the last day. We’re disappointed; we absolutely would have stayed. “This is a family business and these kinds of businesses take everything you have. And we have put everything we have into it,” Holder said. Jeffrey Essakow, president of Flower Hill Promenade, said he is saddened to see their long-standing tenant go and that they were informed of the coffee shop’s intention to close at the end of the shop’s current term lease. “We have enjoyed a long relationship with the Holder family and will miss them at Flower Hill,” Essakow said. “We wish Pannikin every success in the future as we look forward to announcing an exciting new tenant soon.” As stated on its iconic cups, Pannikin has been “wakin’ up San Diego” since 1968. Holder and his family bought the coffeehouse chain from the original owner and founder Bob Sinclair in 1997. Although he’s not sure of the exact year, Holder said

preferring to watch films on their own home-screens, phones or tablets. “They’re not content to sit passively in theaters anymore when so much of modern life and technology revolves around the ability to interact and create in real time,” she noted. In what is meant to be a happy marriage of cutting-edge art and technology, Filmatic audiences will have a chance to interact with the films, using their cellphones to determine plot lines and outcomes. “It will be exciting, creative, and fun,” Webb said. Even if you’re not a total techie, she promises you’ll find plenty of entertaining and thought-provoking possibilities at the festival, where a panel of local movie mavens, including Webb, Asian Film Festival artistic director Brian Hu, filmmaker Neil Kendricks and video artist Trish Stone, have assembled a broad range of events. One of the highlights will certainly be David Michalek‘s “Portraits in Dramatic Time,” featuring 45 super-short scenes performed by 100 expert actors, including Hollywood stars and lesser-known artists from different theatrical traditions. “The scenes, only 10 seconds long, were filmed at high speed, and then slowed down 100 times slower than real life, so that each 10-second scene becomes a 10-minute one,” the New York-based

The Lincoln Center premiere of David Michalek‘s “Portraits in Dramatic Time,” screening Saturday and Sunday night. Courtesy photo writer-director explained. The slowness allows viewers to use their imaginations to create their own stories out of what they see. “It’s like meditation,” said Michalek, who teaches courses with titles like “Mysteries of Art and Beauty” at Yale. “Portraits,” commissioned by Lincoln Center in 2011 to celebrate the opening of its new plaza, is a refreshing antidote to the attention-deficit-disorderly rush of our daily lives. Michalek’s 2007 venture into slo-art, “Slow Dancing,” was enormously successful worldwide, and he will be speaking (to 4-day pass-holders only) before the Saturday showing of “Portraits” (6-8 p.m. Saturday, 6-9 p.m. Sunday, $5-$12).

Interactive Film Fest screens flicks of the future at UC San Diego By Lonnie Burstein Hewitt Attention, movie-lovers! Filmatic is coming! Powered by UCSD’s ArtPower!, the first annual Filmatic Festival, April 24-27, will feature four days of interactive screenings, workshops, and panels exploring the future of film and the changing nature of the audience experience. The venue is Atkinson Hall, headquarters of the on-campus Qualcomm Institute, a division of the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology that is committed to interdisciplinary collaborations. The festival will include pieces by UC San Diego professors in the visual arts and theater departments, a student film festival, and a gaming museum, where visitors can try out the latest in virtual-reality glasses. ArtPower’s longtime film curator, Rebecca Webb, said she was inspired to create the new festival after reading an article on movies of the future. “Things will definitely be more interactive,” she said. “What’s onscreen will only be one part of the experience. With the Filmatic Festival, we’re providing an arena for people to share the joy of participating in a variety of immersive, multisensory, collective experiences.” Webb mentioned the huge decline in movie-theater attendance, with people

CCHS freshman takes 1st place prize in physics Cathedral Catholic High School freshman Dominic Catanzaro recently won first prize in the physics category at the Greater San Diego Science & Engineering Fair. Dominic has also been awarded three industry awards from professional societies (San Diego Science Educators Association, San Diego County Optometric Society, and the Armed Forces Communication and Electronics Association). In addition, he has been selected to compete in the California State Science Fair, April 28 - 29. This is the third year that Dominic will be competing in the California State Science Fair in the Electronics and Electromagnetism category. With the help of Dr. Bertch, Mrs. Wisniew, and Mr. Deely, he was able to use the chemistry lab at school for his science fair project. A science fair project requires the use of the scientific method to prove or disprove a hypothesis. Many people have experienced bad WiFi signals in their homes or offices. Dominic’s project is about measuring the index of refraction of different home construction materials to better understand WiFi propagation in houses.

TPHS JOOI Club members with the brown bag lunches prepared to help feed the homeless in downtown San Diego.

TPHS Junior Optimist Club makes sandwiches for the homeless

The Torrey Pines High School Junior Optimist Octagon International (JOOI) Club prepared 160 brown bag lunches that were distributed to the homeless in downtown San Diego on March 31. The bags contained a peanut butter/jelly sandwich, a piece of fruit, granola bar and a bottle of water. The students earned the funds to provide these meals through a recycling drive and a bake sale. These teens did all the shopping and the preparing of these brown bag meals themselves. The TPHS JOOI was founded in Oct. 2013, and has been meeting weekly on Thursdays at lunch in Room 33. The main focus of the club is community service. They are sponsored by the Del Mar/Solana Beach Optimist Club.

Santa Fe Christian students assemble Easter baskets for kids in need Santa Fe Christian Schools’ third and fourth grade students assembled over 500 Easter baskets to deliver to children in City Heights, San Diego. Baskets were filled with chocolate crosses or bunnies, small toys and necessity items such as toothpaste and toothbrush, shampoos, soaps, lotions, deodorant, socks, hair ties and head bands. Many of the children who will receive the Easter baskets are refugees from all over the globe, including Africa, Middle Eastern and Asian countries. SFC students and parents delivered the baskets before Easter to a local park in City Heights. Parent volunteer Melissa Drake guided the effort in partnership with Bridge of Hope, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping distressed families by providing furniture, clothing and food. The Easter project is one of many charity efforts SFC’s Lower School conducts each year. To learn more about Santa Fe Christian Schools, visit www.sfcs.net.

By Kristina Houck What makes us behave a certain way? Ron Newby, a retired researcher and local resident discusses the human evolutionary path, brain, traits and behaviors in his recently released book, “Homo sapiens: A Liberal’s Perspective.” “I’ve always been curious about human behavior and why we do what we do,” said Newby, who has lived in Del Mar for 10 years. He previously lived in Solana Beach for almost 30 years. Although Newby, 76, wrote the book last year, he came up with the concept when he was in his 20s. A California native, Newby earned degrees in botany and analytical biology at UC Santa Barbara before moving to San Diego in 1965. For 27 years, he worked as a researcher at the Salk Institute in La Jolla. “I’m a very analytical person,” he said. “I’ve always questioned why things are the way they are. “Being a biologist, I realized that we are animals. We belong to the animal kingdom. We have a scientific name, ‘Homo sapiens.’ But surprisingly, many Americans don’t believe in evolution. They believe in other ideas, outside the realm of science.” A self-proclaimed atheist, Newby’s book explores politics, religion and topics such as overpopulation, wealth inequality and climate change. “I’m very concerned we don’t realize we are animals. We just think we’re something special. We’ve even added an ‘e’ to ‘human’ to make it ‘humane,’” Newby said. “Some of us are very humane. Some of us are brutal and without compassion. We’ve had wars and we’ve had slavery and we’ve had torture. “There’s a lot of potential disasters ahead of us, but we get polarized because we’re tribal animals.” Released late March, Newby wrote the book in seven months. He said he only had three days off during that stretch of time. “It’s important to have this conversation,” he said.

Let us help make this chapter one of your best.

Pacific Ridge School student-run publication honored by Columbia Scholastic Press Association Global Vantage, a print and online magazine run collaboratively by students from Pacific Ridge School, Kibera Girls Soccer Academy (Kibera, Kenya), and Canyon Crest Academy, has been honored with the Columbia Scholastic Press Associations’ Edmund J. Sullivan Award. Edmund J. Sullivan, the longtime Executive Director of the Columbia Scholastic Press Association (CSPA), says his namesake award is meant to recognize those student journalists who “pursue innovative ways to present the truth on behalf of their audiences.” This is the first time since 2007 that the discretionary award has been given. Pacific Ridge sophomores Tony Oliverio (San Marcos), Gabe Piscitello (Encinitas), Caitlin Bowen (San Marcos), Mina Fardeen (Carlsbad), and Vincent Wang (Carlsbad) and Pacific Ridge alumnus Dillon Lerach (Rancho Santa Fe), along with Global Journal Project Executive Director Steven Le and Pacific Ridge School faculty advisor Chris Burman, accepted the award on behalf of the chapter during CSPA’s spring conference at Columbia University in late March. Global Vantage also received the Gold Crown – the highest recognition given by the organization — in the category of hybrid magazine, one that exists simultaneously as a print and an online publication. “Global Vantage demonstrates the effectiveness of a student-run communitybased storytelling platform.” Sullivan said. “This is truly global journalism.” The Edmund J. Sullivan award and Gold Crown award are the most recent in a long list of accolades for the student-run magazine. In October, several members of the Global Vantage staff received CSPA Gold Circle awards for individual articles, and the entire staff received the Specialty Magazine Overall Design award for Issue 6. Last year, the magazine received a Gold Medal – placing in the top 1 percent of entries – as part of CSPA’s extensive Medalist Critique. The magazine was also named one of four overall winners in the 2012 U.S. Department of Education Startup Challenge. Global Vantage represents the founding chapter of the Global Journal Project (GJP), a nonprofit organization that began as a service learning class at Pacific Ridge School. Each GJP chapter joins one private school and one public or charter school in the same geographical area to one international school. Students from the three schools collect and edit stories from other students, teachers, parents, and the general public. Together they also raise money to produce the print magazine and maintain the website. Each magazine becomes “a shared voice” for the three school communities - bringing together perspectives from across the world.

illis Allen Real Estate has reached the milestone of 100 years of ongoing operation in San Diego County. The company celebrated this momentous occasion April 18 on the flight deck of the USS Midway. The party was in appreciation of the of the 240 agents and staff that, without them, the company would just be a building and the company’s ideals would just be words. The USS Midway has special meaning to Andrew E. Nelson, president and owner of Willis Allen Real Estate. He had the honor of being a Naval officer and aviator flying in the back seat of the F-4 Phantom during the Vietnam conflict — the same plane that is currently parked on the flight deck of the USS Midway. Nelson was originally based at Miramar, then when deployed, flew off the Midway’s sister ship, the USS Coral Sea. He flew about 150 combat missions in two different fighter squadrons from 1967-72. Willis Allen Real Estate was among the first to use the worldwide web to market its listings and connect with each other, clients, and the network of agents, buyers and sellers that they uniquely bring to their clients. They are founding members of international affiliations that have secured high-end listings and delivered international buyers to San Diego, and they continue to be a unique, family-owned, San Diego-specific real estate firm, but with international reach. Willis Allen’s per agent production is among the highest in the United States. For photos online, visit www.rsfreview.com.

Parker Invites Community Builders to Leadercast At Francis Parker School we seek to inspire and develop tomorrow’s leaders. Leadership doesn’t simply mean to be in charge. Leadership is inspiring others to take on challenges and reach beyond their expectations.

That is why Parker is inviting San Diegans to attend Leadercast, a daylong leadershipbuilding event on May 9 that will be telecast live from Atlanta at Parker’s Linda Vista Campus. Speakers at the event include best-selling author Malcolm Gladwell, Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Former First Lady Laura Bush and other communications, business and creative leaders. Leadercast proposes to “build leaders worth following” and we are proud that our own student leaders from the studentrun magazine Mosaic are coordinating the presentation of this telecast for a San Diego audience. You are invited to attend along with

current leaders from San Diego’s business, academic, civic and neighborhood communities. Tickets may be purchased online at http:// leadercast.com/location/sandiego/ and proceeds will be used to support the student publication, Mosaic. Mosaic magazine is produced by Parker students participating in the Global Journal Project (GJP), a nonproﬁt organization that engages school communities in sharing stories and forming bonds across international and cultural borders. The articles cover a wide range of topics. Each issue is intended to promote insightful and culturally respectful

dialogue. The magazine is an entirely student run enterprise created in partnership with students from the Preuss School at UCSD. Students oversee curating the stories from local, national and international contributors. In addition to managing editorial production, students must fundraise to cover the cost of publication and market the magazine. We hope you’ll plan on attending Leadercast at Francis Parker School on Friday, May 9. Join us as we strive to build students and citizens that will lead us through to a bright and exciting future.

Fashion show benefits Promises2Kids By Kristina Houck Locals feasted on food and fashion for a good cause April 17 at CUCINA enoteca in Del Mar. The charitable luncheon and fashion show featured food and drinks from the California-inspired Italian restaurant and wine shop, as well as clothing and accessories from Maggie B and TRE Boutique, which are also located in Del Mar’s Flower Hill Promenade. A portion of the event ticket sales, as well as funds from opportunity drawings, benefited Promises2Kids, a nonprofit organization that supports foster children and fights against child abuse and neglect in San Diego County. Promises2Kids CEO Tonya Torosian said community support is “critical” for the organization. “Not only does it help us with funding, but it helps us spread awareness about foster care,” Torosian said. “That’s the biggest advantage of things like today.” More than 3,300 children are in the foster care system in San Diego County. Promises2Kids supports these children through its four core programs: Polinsky Children’s Center, Camp Connect, Guardian Scholars and Foster Funds. More than 2,000 children are cared for each year at Polinsky Children’s Center, an emergency shelter in San Diego for abused and neglected children. Promises2Kids, then known as the Child Abuse Prevention Foundation, raised $12 million to build the sixacre facility, which opened in 1994. Camp Connect reunites siblings that have been separated in foster care. The fourday summer camp is held each year in the mountains of Julian. Following summer camp, Camp Connect hosts a variety of monthly day camps. Promises2Kids’ Guardian Scholars program encourages foster youth to pursue higher education. The program provides participating students with academic scholarships, financial aid workshops, and college planning and mentoring support. Lastly, Foster Funds provides support for foster children’s special requests such as sports equipment, music classes, class photos or college application fees. “Our restaurants are places people come to dine and enjoy. We want to have a nice sense of community,” said Cate Hughes, marketing and wine director of CUCINA enoteca. “We’re a busy, successful restaurant, so we want to make sure part of our profits go back to the community and ensure that money spreads around in a positive way.” This is the second time the restaurant has held a charity luncheon and fashion show. CUCINA enoteca previously partnered with local boutiques to host a fashion show to benefit Center for Community Solutions, which operates the only rape crisis center in the city of San Diego along with a countywide 24-hour bilingual crisis helpline. “It’s really important for us to work together,” Hughes said. In addition to the luncheon and fashion show, CUCINA enoteca is supporting Promises2Kids through its monthly Sip and Support campaign. For every bottle of CUCINA private label wine or carafe of CUCINA tap wine sold throughout April, CUCINA will donate $1 to Promises2Kids. CUCINA enoteca is located at 2730 Via de La Valle in Del Mar. For more information about CUCINA enoteca, visit www.cucinaenoteca.com. For more information about Promises2Kids, visit promises2kids.org.

Jazzercise offers five new targeted total body workouts Variety is something we crave, especially in our workouts. Adding new elements to an exercise program helps break through plateaus, challenges our bodies and minds, and keeps us coming back for more. Jazzercise, Inc. has introduced five new highly targeted fitness classes including Fusion, Strike, Core, Strength45 and Strength60. With these offerings customers can experience Jazzercise in a whole new way. The new classes offer the perfect blend of fitness and fun for a high intensity dance-based workout: •Fusion — fuse cardio with strength training for maximum fat burn in this circuit-based high intensity interval training class. •Strike — build lean muscle and knock out workday stress with this dance-based kickboxing workout. •Core — tone and chisel your core with this highly targeted cardio and strength training session. •Strength45 — sculpt and tone the primary muscle groups for a total body burn. •Strength60 — take body sculpting to the next level with hard core strength training for maximum muscle fatigue. With Jazzercise you can burn up to 600 calories in one 60-minute class. The high intensity dancebased fitness program features cardio, kickboxing, power yoga, strength training and chart-topping music. While most customers come

for the fun, they stay because Jazzercise provides a highly effective total body workout plus a sense of community and personalized support. According to our members, benefits include increased weight loss, core strength, cardiovascular endurance, flexibility, stress release and a mood boosting endorphin rush. “This year marks the 45th anniversary of Jazzercise,” said Judi Sheppard Missett, founder and CEO of Jazzercise. “Variety and innovation have been at the heart of our program since its inception. Every 10 weeks we introduce new choreography and music sets to keep our workouts fresh for members and instructors alike. Adding new specialized classes to the mix makes it easier than ever to stay motivated, challenged and fit with Jazzercise.” “We are excited to offer Fusion, Strike, Core, Strength45 and Strength60 to our Carmel Valley, Encinitas and Rancho Santa Fe customers,” said Susan Jentzsch. “These targeted classes are both fun and challenging and customers are loving them.” For a class schedule and local locations, go to jazzercise.com or call (800)FIT-IS-IT.

Del Mar Rose Society’s 2014 Rose Show to be held at Del Mar Library April 25-26 Hundreds of locally grown roses will be on exhibit for public viewing at the Del Mar County Library Friday, April 25, and Saturday, April 26. This exhibition consists of entries by members of the Del Mar Rose Society for its 2014 Rose Show. Ellen Breen, president of the Del Mar Rose Society, and Kathy Reed, chairperson of the DMRS 2014 Rose Show, invite the public to view the annual rose show at the Del Mar Library. The library and the Del Mar Rose Society further the goals of their public educational charters by sharing this rose exhibit with the community. The library has graciously offered to keep these beautiful, locally grown roses on display for two days (April 25 and 26), which will enable the public to view a wide assortment of beautiful specimens that are grown in the San Diego area. The DMRS membership has expanded over the years, and visitors to the show will be amazed at the different roses that are grown. For anyone who is interested in adding to their own gardens, this is the perfect opportunity to see what is available, whether it is an old favorite or new introduction. Included in the exhibit will be a section with the winning entries from the many categories for both novice and experienced rose growers. Among the categories will be: hybrid teas, floribundas, shrubs, climbing roses, old garden roses, miniatures and mini-floras. Artistic classes will include “spring bouquet” and “picture frame.” Another popular category devoted to “fragrance” will be judged by DMRS members. The show will be judged by accredited ARS horticultural and arrangement judges. Judging will take place the evening of Thursday, April 24. The Del Mar County Library is located at 1309 Camino del Mar, in Del Mar. The library will be open from 9:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. on April 25 and 26 for public viewing of the roses. The Del Mar Rose Society provides its members with continuous education on the cultivation of roses, fellowship and support in growing roses with programs and special events throughout the year. Founded in 2000, members include beginner and expert rose growers. The Society is affiliated with the American Rose Society (ARS) and welcomes members in the surrounding areas of Del Mar, including Solana Beach, Encinitas, Rancho Santa Fe, Carmel Valley, La Jolla and Point Loma.

La Jolla Music Society presents pianist Barry Douglas May 9 La Jolla Music Society closes this Season’s Frieman Family Piano Series with Irish pianist Barry Douglas at the MCASD Sherwood Auditorium on Friday, May 9 at 8 p.m. Hailed as “a supremely talented and genuine artist” (Diapason), Barry Douglas is one of the most versatile and brilliant pianists today. Active as an orchestral soloist, recitalist, chamber musician, conductor and festival director, his artistry has been acclaimed by critics and audiences worldwide. In his first concert on his U.S. tour, Mr. Douglas will charm the La Jolla audience with technique that The Los Angeles Times calls intense, spontaneous and thoughtful. His La Jolla Music Society program will feature Brahms’ Four Pieces for Piano and Sonata No. 3 in F Minor, and Schubert’s Fantasy in C Major, “Wanderer Fantasy,” Impromptu in G-flat Major and Impromptu in A-flat Major. La Jolla Music Society enhances the concert-going experience by presenting “Preludes” – pre-concert chats and performances – prior to each performance. Steven Cassedy, professor of literature and associate dean of Graduate Studies at UC San Diego as well as a classically trained pianist, will deliver a pre-concert lecture at 7 p.m. Concert tickets are $30-$80 and are available through the La Jolla Music Society ticket office, (858) 459-3728 and online at www.LJMS.org.

“We really miss that part of the business,” Holder said. “The rent is just more than we can support.” Holden said he has “no hard feelings” toward the center or the management. He said they are good people that just need to get a business in that can pay the higher rent. Holder said that Pannikin has many exciting things coming — they have started producing their own Pannikin brand K-cups for single-cup coffee makers and their website sells over 20 varieties of coffee and 40 types of tea across the country; Holder said soon they will partner with Amazon on a website. Pannikin will continue to roast its own coffee in Leucadia and bake its cookies and cakes from scratch. “We think we do it better than anybody,” Holder said. “We have an amazing little company and great shops, we were one of the first in San Diego and we’re going to be here forever.” For more information, visit www.pannikincoffeeandtea.com.
