SDUHSD to continue with blend of open enrollment, boundary schools BY KAREN BILLING After a year’s worth of workshops, surveys and passionate debates, San Dieguito Union High School District’s high school enrollment process will not change. The board made that direction to the district staff after a three-hour public meeting at Carmel Valley Middle School on Aug. 31, attended by nearly 200 people. The board was considering three options: to draw boundaries around all four high

New director of instruction at RSF Golf Club creating more opportunities to learn BY KAREN BILLING The Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club has a renewed focus for getting more community members out on the course, learning the game. Under the watch of new Director of Instruction Scott Johnson, the club has developed a comprehensive instruction program, which it didn’t have before. “Knowing what a great instructor Scott is and how the membership at the Golf Club supports and loves Scott, it was decided Scott Scott Johnson was the ideal individual to Photo by Karen Billing build and grow a first-rate golf instructional program at Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club,” said RSF Golf Club Manager Al Castro. Johnson said he is looking forward to engaging the community more and doing a lot of the teaching himself. Johnson has been at the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club for 31 years, serving as the assistant golf professional for many years before becoming the head golf professional. He knows many of the members very well, teaching many of them as kids when they were growing up, Castro said. As Johnson takes on his new role, Mike See GOLF, page 26
schools, to maintain the current mix of boundary and open enrollment schools, or to draw small boundaries around San Dieguito and Canyon Crest to give preference to students who live close to the schools. As Superintendent Rick Schmitt noted, there is no perfect solution in which everyone will be happy — the goal was to find the option that positively affects the most families. “I truly do believe in choice,” said board
member Joyce Dalessandro. “There’s been no evidence presented this evening, or prior to this, that is compelling enough reason to change the whole system as it stands. This system has been working beautifully, almost flawlessly, since its inception.” Dalessandro said she has heard many parents express fears that their children would be excluded from the school closest to home, but history has See BOUNDARY, page 26

New bus schedules driving some SDUHSD families to distraction BY KAREN BILLING The school bell will toll a little later on San Dieguito Union High School District campuses, as late start times have been added at Earl Warren and Carmel Valley middle schools. The schools also have an earlier “zero period” to
allow students some flexibility with their schedules. At Earl Warren, first period starts at 8:20 a.m. If students opt to take zero period, they can start at 7:20 a.m., which about 25 percent of district students do. At the Aug. 20 school
board meeting, Earl Warren parent Dick Bartsch said while the later start time is great, the district has a “backward” and “kid-unfriendly policy” for the bus service that accompanies the start times. The bus schedules have changed significantly for the 2015-16 school
year. Buses must deliver students very early to Oak Crest and Earl Warren middle schools in order to pick up Diegueno and Carmel Valley middle school students on time. At dismissal, this reverses. Bartsch said in the spring, parents were told that the bus service would
be available to bring kids to school for the later start time, and if they wanted to sign up for zero period, they would have to provide their own carpool. However, as the school year begins, it is the later, regular-starttime See BUS, page 26

RSF Association Board Biz: Subcommittees making progress on feasibility of proposed Covenant Club BY ANN BOON, PRESIDENT, RANCHO SANTA FE ASSOCIATION BOARD Community interest remains high on the proposed Covenant Club. Here’s an overview of what’s been happening since our community voted to move ahead with the feasibility phase and since we held our last town hall meeting in April. We’ve divided the feasibility work among about 27 community members on three subcommittees — Membership and Marketing, Design, and Finance — and we have included important constituencies, such as golf and tennis members, on the committee to get their input in this phase. We’ve held numerous working sessions, including more than seven meetings for the Design Subcommittee alone. All of our committee meetings are open to Association members and many interested members have attended. The subcommittees are hard at work gathering research and studying the feasibility of this project, all with the goal to deliver detailed information so the community can make an educated decision once the feasibility phase is complete. The deliverables we plan to provide the community include:
Ann Boon • Site Plan • Architectural plans • Project schedule • Budget • Financing plan • Membership program To bring you up to speed, all subcommittees have made good progress over the past four to five months. I’ve heard from many residents who are particularly interested in the progress made by the Design subcommittee. This subcommittee continues to refine the program elements and has: • Received approval from the RSF Association Board on the architectural contract • Established a set of goals and objectives to be used to analyze a specific location of the facility • Retained a parking consultant to review the current parking situation, conduct a parking demand anal-
ysis and determine future parking requirements • Toured neighboring health clubs and pool facilities • Analyzed a variety of site plan alternatives and is currently refining two alternatives located at the Association-owned property on the Golf Club and Tennis Club campus. In addition, the committee has met with the Tennis Board and is scheduled to meet with the Golf Club Board in September. The Design subcommittee will continue to work with these two stakeholder groups throughout this process. After the Design subcommittee finalizes the program and selects a recommended site plan, the Committee will hold the next Town Hall meeting (likely early this fall) to provide a more thorough update to the community. Once this step in the design process is complete, the Design subcommittee can begin the detailed architectural and cost estimating phase. At this point, our other subcommittees will have enough information to further their efforts, including a membership program analysis, fundraising plans, financial modeling, etc. Our goal is to complete all of those deliverables to present at the fi-
nal town hall meeting and Community Vote in early part of 2016. We’ve been working hard on research, exploration, feasibility considerations and other background exercises necessary with a project of this type and scope. As we reach consensus on recommendations for moving forward, we will do our best to keep the community in the loop. Whether it be via my column or through a town hall meeting, we will keep you abreast of all news so that you may make an informed vote next year on the future of a Covenant Club. My thanks to Jerry Yahr and Heather Slosar, who have been providing leadership, vision and purpose to our feasi-
bility efforts. I am also grateful for our many subcommittee members who have been putting in many hours and bottomless energy to moving this process along. We are in the process of building a new website to better communicate with all of you. This fall, we will be providing you with a site that’s well-organized and easy to navigate. Soon, you will be able to go to one website for news, background information, calendars, forms, agendas and minutes, phone numbers and more. We want to make it as easy as possible to keep yourself informed on many issues and subjects pertaining to the Covenant. The Village is another area of much behind-the-
scenes work. A Village Master Plan Task Force has been recently formed and is already at considering ways to revitalize the RSF Village. The Village is the heart and soul of Rancho Santa Fe, and we must find ways to enhance the area. Watch soon for a series of fun events popping up in the Village. Thanks to our Village Vibrance subcommittee for their enthusiasm and work in this area. The social events will serve to build a sense of community, bring people to the Village and create a dialogue with residents, while the Task Force is looking at long-term solutions to the Village. It’s an exciting time to be a resident of Rancho Santa Fe. ann.boon@me.com
RSF property owners invited to Sept. 16 community meeting on traffic solutions Property owners in the Covenant in Rancho Santa Fe are invited to a Community Meeting at 6:30 p.m. Sept. 16 at the Rancho Santa Fe Garden Club to hear about traffic problems and solutions for the Paseo Delicias corridor at Via de la Valle, El Montevideo/La Valle Plateada and El Camino del Norte. Presentations will be made by the Rancho Santa Fe Association staff, by residents who support the installation of roundabouts and by property owners who support the installation of traffic signals. After the meeting, all dues-paying property owners will receive a survey in the mail asking them to weigh in on their preferences for either traffic signals or roundabouts in the three intersections. The results of the survey will be provided to the Rancho Santa Fe Board of Directors and San Diego County Supervisors. For information, contact Christy Whalen at 858-756-1174.

Solana Beach man arrested BY KRISTINA HOUCK A Solana Beach man accused of molesting a child and possessing child pornography is suspected to have engaged in such acts for the past decade, San Diego County Sheriff’s officials recently announced. Days after his arrest in another county, Sean O’Farrell was booked into the Vista Detention Facility early Aug. 27 for allegedly possessing child pornography. The 40-yearold man was already facing charges for allegedly soliciting sex from a teen Aug. 18 in Rancho Cucamonga. “Based on the investigation to date, we strongly believe that O’Farrell has engaged in sexual acts with minor children over the course of probably 10 years,� Capt. Theresa Adams-Hydar said during an Aug. 27 press conference at the North Coastal Sheriff’s Station in Encinitas. O’Farrell on Aug. 18 reportedly offered a 15-year-old boy money in exchange for a sexual favor at a Rancho Cucamonga library, according to the San Bernardino County Sheriff-Coroner Department. The incident occurred about 5 p.m., when the teen was approached in the second-floor bathroom. The boy reported the incident to a staff member who contacted police. When police arrested O’Farrell, he was found in possession of several different library cards, including cards for the Carmel Valley and Solana Beach libraries. After the arrest, officials at the North Coastal Sheriff’s Station obtained a warrant to search O’Farrell’s Solana Beach home. O’Farrell lives with family in a home near Earl Warren Middle School and the Solana Beach Library. “We made the decision to take the next step in this case to make sure our community is kept safe from sexual predators like O’Farrell,� Adams-Hydar said.
Detectives searched O’Farrell’s home on Aug. 26 and found several videos that showed “prepubescent boys in various states of undress, naked and engaged in sexual activity,� Adams-Hydar said. O’Farrell pleaded not guilty to pos- Sean O’Farrell session of child pornography during his Aug. 28 arraignment. A readiness conference is scheduled for Sept. 8 and a preliminary hearing is set for Sept. 14 at the Vista Courthouse. Investigators said they suspect O’Farrell has also preyed on children in San Diego County. Officials confirmed people have previously reported O’Farrell has displayed suspicious behavior at local libraries. There was no evidence that a crime had been committed, however, so he was not arrested. Adams-Hydar asked anyone with information about O’Farrell to come forward, including victims. “San Diego County Sheriff’s Department wants to keep the County of San Diego, our children, safe,� Adams-Hydar said. “We need your help to do that.� She said O’Farrell may be employed as a butcher at a local grocery store. He has also volunteered with an unidentified youth club in the area, she added. Victims are encouraged to contact the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department at 858-565-5200 or Crime Stoppers at 888-5808477.

RSF Historical Society courtyard entry nearly complete The Rancho Santa Fe Historical Society will soon have a new entrance to its village home, as work is nearly complete on a courtyard repair project. The impetus for the project was damage being caused to the wall, patio and drainage system by the roots of a 40-foot tree near the entry that had outgrown its planter. The previous high, rounded arch and gate at the La Flecha House were not part of the original structure that was designed by Lilian Rice and built in 1923. With the damage to the wall expected from the tree removal, the Historical Society took the opportunity to replace the portal with one that is more in keeping with Rice’s original vision.

USC volleyball team wins national championship; coach and player have local ties BY GIDEON RUBIN When former La Costa Canyon volleyball standout Paige Hines organized her USC sand volleyball team’s visit to a Los Angeles-area children’s hospital earlier this year, the intent was to provide some inspiration to those in need. But it wasn’t just the children who were left energized. “We felt good connecting to kids and hopefully making their day,” Hines said. “They also had a huge impact on us ... seeing how strong they were and how they handled everything so well. I think it was a lot of motivation for our team to kind of Paige Hines (left) is helping lead USC’s sand volstep up and handle things with the leyball team, which went 28-0 on its way to a same courage” that the children with national championship. “Paige was a huge conillnesses did. Hines led the team’s community tributor,” says USC Coach Anna Biller Collier service efforts, which also included (right). Courtesy photos setting up sand volleyball clinics for underprivileged children, safe Halloween night trick-or-treating for kids in high-crime areas, and beach cleanups. Her leadership was also a key factor in the Trojans enjoying arguably the most successful season in the newly sanctioned sport’s history. The Trojans went 28-0 on their way to winning a national championship. “The whole season was kind of like a dream come true,” Hines said. “We went 28-0, and I was surrounded by some incredible teammates. We were pretty close and we had a great bond.” Hines played a key role on the team as a sophomore, acting as a liaison between coaches and teammates as a reserve player on the program’s Team 6. “Paige was a huge contributor,” said USC coach Anna Biller Collier. Hines, a former Mavericks standout in indoor and beach volleyball, often stepped in at key moments during the championship run, Collier said. In additional to her leadership, Hines’ role requires athleticism, skill and aptitude along with excellent communication skills and the ability to shape the team’s culture. And she has to think quickly. “Her duty is to assess what’s going on in each match and, if necessary, for me or someone else on my staff to move to a particular match so that we would win at least three out of the five” matches, Collier said.
Collier herself has local ties. Her parents have lived in Rancho Santa Fe for 20 years, and she pops in regularly to scoop up free meals along with recruits in one of the nation’s most talent-rich areas. A former Olympic coach who’s originally from the East Coast, Collier hits Moonlight Beach in Encinitas as well as beaches and gyms in Del Mar and Rancho Santa Fe, among other areas of San Diego County on her recruiting trips. “It is definitely a mecca of high-level indoor and beach volleyball,” she said. Hines, a product of the recruiting gold mine frequented by Collier along with sand and indoor coaches throughout the nation, admits that playing in such a competitive region elevated her game. “I was being pushed constantly,” she said. “I was with girls (who) were better than me, and it just made me want to strive to do my best and step up to the plate. “It can be discouraging at times, but in the end, it makes me a better player.” It also made her a pioneer of sorts. Hines launched her sand volleyball career on the beaches of Del Mar, playing for San Diego Beach Volleyball Club. She played for the Mavericks club beach volleyball in its inaugural season her senior year. Beach volleyball is now a sanctioned sport in the San Diego Section. “That was kind of a cool thing to be a part of, because I kind of laid down the steps for younger kids, and I know a lot of the girls because I played for San Diego Beach Volleyball Club for four years. So a lot of the girls that are doing that and also going to La Costa Canyon are now playing, and they get to play on a CIF beach volleyball team, which is just incredible,” she said. “It’s something that I never thought was possible in high school.” But even back in high school, she was committed to community service. “I get so much more of a personal reward giving to somebody else something (rather) than buying something for myself,” she said. “That’s something that’s always been instilled in me.” She plans to continue that commitment after completing her studies at USC. She’s an environmental studies major with minor in social entrepreneurship and made the dean’s list last semester. “I’m following the path of helping people,” she said. “I’m not exactly sure what I want to do with it, just as long as I can have a positive influence on people’s lives.” Growing up in Encinitas, Hines saw elite volleyball talent that had a positive influence on her career. “I remember coming down to Moonlight (Beach) and being a young freshman (at LCC) and seeing Natalie Hagglund play on Court One and just tearing it up, so that was just something that I wanted to do and pursue,” Hines said. Watching Hagglund, who went on to have a distinguished career at USC and now plays for Team USA, inspired her. Now Hines is leading others. “I kind of felt like I followed her footsteps,” she said of Hagglund. “Hopefully, I left behind a good example for other girls (at LCC) to follow and hopefully come to USC.”

TPHS alum brings it home for role in ‘Return to Forbidden Planet’ BY KRISTINA HOUCK Although he’s come a long way from his alma mater stage, Charlie Gange’s latest show is taking place close to home. As one of the stars of New Village Arts Theatre’s “Return to the Forbidden Planet,” the Torrey Pines High School alum is hoping his friends and family will make the trip to Carlsbad. “They’re my biggest support,” he said. “Whenever they’re there, the show goes a little better, for sure.” Inspired by Shakespeare’s “The Tempest” and the 1950s science fiction film “Forbidden Planet,” the musical features special effects along with rock ’n’ roll classics such as “Good Vibrations,” “Great Balls of Fire” and “I Heard It Through the Grapevine.” The show opened July 25 and runs through Sunday, Sept. 6. “It’s super fun,” Gange said. “It’s like the campiest, cheesiest, quirkiest musical ever.” Although Gange, 22, grew up playing music — he learned how to play piano at 7 and guitar at 10 — he didn’t appear in his first musical until he was a sophomore in high school. At one time, his love of performing on the field surpassed his love of performing on the stage. “You name it, I played it,” said Gange, who was a member of baseball, basketball, football, soccer and swimming teams while growing up. “With that, I always thought musical theater was lame. I didn’t want to do it because I wanted to be tough and cool and play sports.” Gange changed his mind about musical theater after seeing Johnny Depp in the film adaptation of the musical “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.” He fondly recalled later auditioning for the musical at his school one day after football practice, still dressed in his uniform. He landed the lead role. “I did it and I absolutely fell in love with it,” Gange said. “I think I always knew I wanted to act and perform. I just didn’t really know that there was no limitation to that.” After his breakthrough role, Gange landed a part in “The Who’s Tommy” in his senior year. In addition to the two roles, Gange performed original music and covers at lunch and during school events. Along with other theater students, he also performed a song at his graduation. “It was a really good feeling to be accepted for what I loved doing,” he said. After graduating from Torrey Pines in 2011, Gange studied music at the University of Oregon. “It was nice just sitting in a forest, finding a log and playing guitar on a river — something you can’t really get in [this area],” he said. “It was a really cool place to do that for a couple years.” After two years in Oregon, Gange returned to San Diego. He is in his final semester at San Diego State University, where he expects to earn his bachelor’s degree in music later this year. While studying music, Gange continues to sharpen his skills on and off the stage. Since high school, he has starred in shows by ACT San Diego, Flat Seven Productions, Diversionary Theatre and Moonlight Stage Productions. He also plays in a rock band called Sights and Sages, formed in 2014. This is his time, working with New Village Arts Theatre. As Cookie, he plays the guitar throughout most of the show and has an “epic guitar solo” called, “She’s Not There,” which

For information or to buy tickets, call 760-433-3245 or visit www.newvillagearts.org. “We’re all having a blast and the audience is having a blast, too,” Gange said. “It’s a really good time.” For more about Gange, visit www.charliegange.com.

RSF residents co-chair ROMP gala Oct. 3; event benefits Ronald McDonald House Charities Ronald McDonald House Charities of San Diego’s annual ROMP gala brings together longtime supporters and philanthropists for “A Moment in Buenos Aires” at Estancia La Jolla on Oct. 3. Led by event co-chairs Steve and Rex Romande of Rancho Santa Fe, the sixth annual gala will feature musical entertainment, gourmet food and a live auction to raise funds for San Diego’s Ronald McDonald House. The organization provides meals, overnight rooms, nap rooms, laundry facilities and more to alleviate stress and financial burden for families who have a child undergoing treatment at a San Diego hospital. Steve and Rex Romande’s history with the Ronald McDonald House dates to when they welcomed their daughter Kingsley, now aged 5, into their lives and had to rely on the House for its services. Shortly after their personal experience with the Ronald McDonald House, close friend Mary Drake founded the first ever ROMP gala. Steve and Rex have been involved with the charity ever since. “The Ronald McDonald House was there for us when we needed help, allowing us peace of mind,” said Steve Romande. “We’re thrilled to bring our family and friends together to raise essential support for this charity that once gave us so much,” said Rex Romande. “For us, the Ronald McDonald House really is all about family.” Steve and Rex Romande have backgrounds as an esteemed talent coach and award-winning hair stylist, respectively, and have poured their creativity into this year’s ROMP gala. The Argentinian-themed event will feature authentic Argentinian dancing, and a live performance by David Cook, an inspirational musician with more than 5 million tracks sold and an avid supporter of charitable organizations. Live auction items include a five-night vacation to Buenos Aires, private Landmark Aviation jet from San Diego to Napa to dine at The French Laundry, being a cheerleader for a day with the Charger Girls, attending New York Fashion Week with couture designer Yigal Azrouël, and other amazing prizes. More information about the ROMP gala and San Diego’s Ronald McDonald House is available at www.rmhcsd.org. Tickets to the event are nearly sold out. Please contact Lauren David at LDavid@rmhcsd.org to attend.

Harvest for Hope fundraiser hopes to reap $130K for families fighting cancer BY KRISTINA HOUCK San Diegans Richard and Diane Nares lost their son to cancer, but Emilio’s memory lives on through the foundation they started to help other families in need. To continue to support families throughout the region, the couple invite the community to the foundation’s 12th annual “Harvest for Hope” fundraiser Sept. 13 at the San Diego Central Library. “The organization came about because we were so aware of how devastating this journey is,” Diane Nares said. “We had strong support systems all Jeffrey around us, but so many othStrauss ers don’t.” The Emilio Nares Foundation was created in 2003, two years after the couple lost their 5-year-old son, who died in 2000 after a three-year battle with leukemia. “We couldn’t walk away from this,” Nares said. “We saw so much, and there is such great need.” For more than a decade, the nonprofit has transported children and their families to and from chemotherapy appointments, checkups, blood transfusions and other types of treatment involved in the fight against cancer. The idea for the foundation stemmed from the countless hours the couple spent at Rady Children’s Hospital, then called Children’s Hospital of San Diego, helping their son in his fight. During that time, they got to know other families also fighting cancer. Many families, Nares said, relied on public transportation and struggled to pay extra bus fares. “As hard as it was, much of our journey was picked up and covered. As we fell, the community picked us up,” she said. “We wanted to establish the foundation so we could raise funds to create a variety of programs and services that take care of very basic and simple needs.” The couple started offering rides to families in need, but within weeks, there were more requests than they could handle. From there, they raised enough funds in the first year to purchase a van, hire a driver and provide free transportation. Since then, the foundation has grown to two full-time drivers and two vans in San Diego. On average, the foundation provides transportation for about 40 children and their families to Rady every week, Nares said. With another fulltime driver and a 15-passenger van, the program has also expanded to transport children and their fami-
lies to and from Children’s Hospital of Orange County. More recently, hospital rides are now being offered for residents of Imperial County. In addition to transportation, the foundation offers a variety of other resources, including the Family Resource Center at Rady, where families can research cancer and access information on housing, employment, financial aid and other forms of assistance. “We can help with the really simple needs that people take for granted,” Nares said. The foundation’s largest annual fundraiser, Harvest for Hope, started 12 years ago, when a group of local chefs, including Jeffrey Strauss, owner and chef of Solana Beach-based Pamplemousse Grille, decided to do something to support the Emilio Nares Foundation. Nares has known a number of the chefs for some time, as she has worked in the food and wine industry for 25 years. “I can’t imagine anything more painful than losing a child,” Strauss said. “Diane and her husband mean the world to me. They are two kind and giving people. It was a no-brainer. I couldn’t wait to help out.” This year, Strauss said, he and his team are planning to present a dessert buffet at the event. “I enjoy giving back to the community,” Strauss said. “The community supports us so much.

A Fresh Look on Finances
with Aubrey Morrow CFP®
Strategies for a Secured Retirement Income You have saved for many years and now looking forward to a great retirement. We financial planners constantly talk about the need to save for retirement. Max out all available retirement account & invest personally, and one day, when you are ready to retire, that portfolio will become income for you. Some pre-retirement points to consider: 1. What are your expenses today? How much money will you need in retirement each month to cover your essential expenses, and to also cover the fun things that you’d like to do in those golden years? Tracking this spending for the first few years of retirement is critical since expenses can run higher than expected. 2. Determine how much income you will need from your investments. The amount is your total estimated expenses minus your Social Security, pensions or real estate income. Once you know how much you need each year, you can then begin to formulate a distribution income strategy. 3. Review all your investment income opportunities. What investments can be rearranged to produce income? Choices like when to start taking Social Security can cut your retirement income by 25% or boost it by an additional 32%. Don’t take Social Security early – unless you need the income. It grows at an 8% guaranteed amount – so, delay to age 70 if possible. Married couples can also use strategies like claiming spousal benefits to increase income substantially. Do you own investment real estate? Tired of property management and tenants? Explore all the options of keeping your property, selling and paying taxes, charitable gifting for income and tax benefits or some form of a tax-deferred 1031 exchange. 4. Decide how much risk you are comfortable with. Your level of comfort with risk determines how you allocate your investment portfolio. In retirement, people usually don’t want much risk. Yet the reality is that for a 30-to-40-year retirement with inflating expenses every year, some allocation to growth assets is helpful if not necessary. 5. Identify how much you want to leave to your heirs. For some people, this is a top priority; for others, they want to spend as much as possible while they can. If you plan to leave behind a substantial inheritance, just be aware that it might place limitations on your income. These are the five simple but important steps that decide your ability to live the life you want in retirement.

A couple of years ago, Clubmark, a consulting firm hired by the Association, convinced the Association Board that building an expensive amenity for a younger demographic was the best way to market the Ranch. It would change our image, raise property values and attract people we are missing now. They told our Board that a small increase in the value of our homes could justify the very large cost of building a high-end pool/fitness center, The Association was partially driven by a feeling at the time that the RSF Tennis Club and the RSF Golf Club were failing entities that needed change. Their idea was to consolidate them into a country club environment, with amenities that can compete with developments like Santaluz, Crosby, Fairbanks, and similar developments elsewhere, many of which are struggling right now. In essence, they believed that the development model, supported primarily by selling homes, would work for us. As somebody who came here precisely because the Ranch wasn’t a country club development, and as a marketing guy who has seen so many businesses fail by alienating their own customers as they chase a new concept or a new demographic, I was skeptical but open to the idea. I decided to participate fully in the process. I filled out a survey, attended presentations and focus groups, went to town hall meetings, and voiced my opinion. Through it all, the vision of a large facility between the golf club and tennis club stayed remarkably intact. It is now clear that the Association Board wants to build what was first proposed and no amount of input, competing priorities, drought or anything, is going to change their original vision. Also, along the way, I think the Covenant Club has become a cause for a small but important segment of our homeowner population. They see it as greatly improving their lifestyle, by giving them their own place to go, and by attracting more people like them to the Ranch. I don’t fault them for their dream or their passion. I don’t even fault them for wanting the rest of us to contribute to that dream by paying for construction and assuming much of the risk for nonperformance. I will, however, fault the rest of us if we fall for the seductive premise that there’s a need to save the Ranch by risking a big part of what brought us here in the first place. We are not a new development. We are an established and coveted community. Rebranding us at this point, especially in the way proposed, will be expensive and risky. Our lifestyles will be affected. So will our pocketbooks. There must be a better way. Bill Johnson
I have read a lot lately about the water shortage here in California. I have been reducing my water usage and now my lawn is mostly brown and some of my orange trees are looking starved. I am seriously considering what to do next to save the rest of my plants and trees. Meanwhile, I see a very green-looking golf course that continues to use potable water, the same stuff that comes out of our pipes and faucets. Really? Other golf courses have long switched to reclaimed water — look at Lomas Santa Fe and Whispering Palms next door to us — why haven’t we? How about some of the large horse ranch properties with acres of grass –— couldn’t they use some reclaimed water, too? Reclaimed water is water that has been treated to a high level of purity (tertiary) and then returned to consumers through purple pipes for irrigation uses. Places all around us are using it, and unless all the treated wastewater available isn’t recycled, it goes out into the ocean through an outfall. Now we are even treating seawater to be used as potable water through a desalination process in Carlsbad. How long are we going to keep our head in the sand before we find a doable solution to our water crisis and get some reclaimed water in purple pipes to Rancho Santa Fe? If even just the Rancho Santa Golf Course used reclaimed water, wouldn’t that help all of us in our struggle to keep our properties green? Then consider the large tracts of land that could be served, the road right of ways, and public places — we would all benefit. While we are all discussing recreational facilities, roundabouts, traffic signals, step-down housing and changes in the Village, let’s not forget about water and the lack thereof in RSF. This is something we all should agree on and be willing to invest in for our future needs in protecting our property values. We need a reliable water source to keep us all looking good, not just the golf course, and then, let’s hope, no more potable water rationing under threat of penalty. Marion Dodson

Education Matters/Opinion: No boundaries for neighborhood school BY MARSHA SUTTON At a board workshop that attracted nearly 200 people on Monday, San Dieguito Union High School District staff was directed by a divided board to make no changes to Marsha Sutton its current high school boundary and enrollment policy. This is a bitter defeat for the communities in Cardiff and Encinitas who desperately wanted the right for their children to have geographic priority to attend San Dieguito Academy, their neighborhood high school. By drawing tight boundaries around SDA, and leaving Canyon Crest Academy’s boundaries alone for the present, since that’s not currently where the problem exists, the district had the chance to satisfy both groups of parents – those in the north who deserve the right to attend their neighborhood school and those in the south worried about limiting options for access to CCA. But the SDA constituents were denied. After a tedious two-hour presentation by staff that summarized thoroughly but not very succinctly the
meetings, surveys, community presentations, legal constraints, history of the district, and boundary options, the public was at last allowed to speak. Twenty-five speaker slips were received, and passions ran high on both sides. Three former SDUHSD board members were present, two of whom – Linda Friedman and Sue Hartley – spoke in favor of making no change. The third former trustee, Dee Rich, was present but did not speak, telling me later that she too did not support any change to the current system. “Choice” seemed to be the operative word: those wanting a small boundary around SDA as well as those advocating for no change used the word to make their respective cases. But choice for some limits choice for others. SDUHSD trustee Joyce Dalessandro said she saw “no evidence presented that’s a compelling enough reason to change the current system” which she said has been “working almost flawlessly since its inception.” Trustee Amy Herman also supported no change, saying it has worked well over the years. She expressed gratitude to long-time board member Dalessandro for providing
history and expertise on the issue. Trustee Mo Muir, who didn’t state a firm position on the question, advocated for parity among the schools “so there’s not a lottery.” Board president Beth Hergesheimer supported the current policy but said she didn’t see her position as in favor of “no change” because she expected the two boundary schools – La Costa Canyon and Torrey Pines – to make adjustments and modifications to their programs to attract more students and ease demand for the two academies. Only board member John Salazar seemed to sympathize with the neighborhood school advocates, saying, “It makes logical sense to create small boundaries” around SDA to give priority to those who live nearby. “The current system is broken,” he said. Taking direction from the board (there was no formal vote), SDUHSD superintendent Rick Schmitt said, “We will carry on as we have for the past 19 years” – with some fine-tuning along the way. And thus concludes that yearlong exercise. Lack of math class for advanced
students When I heard that a number of eighth-grade students in the district’s middle schools who are advanced in math had no classes offered at their schools at their level, and were advised to either go to their nearest high school for the appropriate math class or pay to take a class on-line, I asked the district for an explanation. According to SDUHSD associate superintendent of administrative services Jason Viloria, the district has five eighth-grade students at Earl Warren, six or seven at Diegueno, six or seven at Oak Crest, two at the newly opened Pacific Trials, and nine at Carmel Valley Middle School whose schools offer no appropriate option for a math class at their advanced levels. He said it’s not economically possible to offer a math class for such a small number of students at each See EDUCATION, page 25

Scripps holds Healing Arts Collection event Art enthusiasts had the opportunity to view renderings of artwork that will grace family waiting areas and corridors at the Leichtag Foundation Critical Care Pavilion at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas. The Healing Arts Collection at Scripps Encinitas event was held Aug. 27 at Make (formerly the Floral Trade Center) in Carlsbad. The collection — 29 original installations consisting of paintings, mosaics, carvings and sculptures — showcases images of nature and serenity that are reflective of North San Diego County scenery. By sponsoring a signature piece of the Healing Arts Collection, donors will support the addition of new, inspiring artwork for the hospital as well as its expansion efforts. Research has shown that art in a hospital environment can help reduce stress, pain and anxiety, improve the work day for health care providers and make the entire health care experience a better one for patients and caregivers.

TPHS seniors create mockumentary series ‘Last Period’ for YouTube Ermana Productions, led by Torrey Pines High School seniors Ivy Gong and Michelle Zhao, recently launched “Last Period,” an 18-episode comedy mockumentary about the shenanigans of five high schoolers in a “last period” (hence the name) “Office Aide” class together. The series pilot “The Beginning” premiered on YouTube Aug. 28, and the second episode, “The Golden Apple,” followed on Aug. 29. Additional episodes, approximately every two weeks, will extend throughout the 2015-2016 school year on YouTube and the Ermana Productions website. Each episode relates to the trials and tribulations that the students are experiencing at that time in their lives. The webseries was filmed over two weeks this past summer with a minimal budget at two locations, UCSD in La Jolla and Torrey Pines High School in San Diego. The series production team, cast and crew included students from Torrey Pines High School, Canyon Crest Academy, Westview High School, MiraCosta College, Mount Everest Academy and UC Santa Barbara. “Last Period” was written, produced, directed and edited by Ivy Gong and Michelle Zhao. The principal cast includes Emmy Farese (CCA), Lucas Goodman (Westview), Joshua Guicherit (UCSB), Kion Heidari (CCA), who also wrote the original music, and Jacquelyn Morales (Torrey Pines). “We’ve always felt that many of the high school comedies we’ve seen inaccurately portray the extraordinary experience of
high school,” said Ivy. “The portrayals are amusing and entertaining, but not completely relatable. We wanted to capture the struggles and successes of typical high schoolers and that was a huge impetus for the production of ‘Last Period.’” Ivy and Michelle found a passion in film production once they realized they didn’t identify with the many AP STEM classes they had taken over the years. They chose the name “Ermana Productions” last year because “hermana” means “sister” in Spanish and that reflects their close bond. “The difficulties we faced were so different from our academic difficulties with getting good grades and test scores — they were real,” said Michelle. “Likewise, the overwhelming sense of accomplishment at the end of each day of filming among our cast and crew was incomparable to the satisfaction of getting a good grade on a test.” Added Ivy, “We learned so much from this production; it was both a technical and personal education. It was inspiring to see our actors and crew members put in hours of their time to make this production come to life. All of the hard work and responsibility that everyone took on reinforced our certainty of our love for film and entertainment. For that we couldn’t be prouder and more excited for everyone to see what our team accomplished.” For information contact ermanaproductions@gmail.com or find them on Facebook or YouTube.

Canyon Crest Academy field hockey team wins Otay Ranch JV Invitational Congratulations to the Canyon Crest Academy JVA girls field hockey team for winning the Otay Ranch Invitational JV Field Hockey Tournament on Aug. 29. The CCA team shutout four other Southern California area high school teams to face San Pasqual High School in the tournament finals. They defeated them 2-0.
BY WALTER BAYS Torrey Pines varsity football team capped a sweep of Steele Canyon with a 28-7 victory over the Cougars on the road. Earlier, the frosh won 35-0 and the JV 21-14. By the 7 p.m. kickoff, the temperature in Spring Valley had cooled to a balmy 94 degrees. Both teams moved the ball well at times, ground and air, picking up first downs. In the end, the Falcons made more breakaway plays and crucial stops, and the Cougars made more mistakes. Torrey Pines was first on the board after a long run by Matthew Feeler, then Jacob Montes carried for the touchdown. A long pass from quarterback Caden Kelly to Michael Gadinas put the Falcons in position, and Cole Svoboda carried it in. Falcons 14-0. A good Cougar drive ended with tackles in the backfield by Falcon defensive backs Henry Alter and Matthew Feeler, then their field goal attempt was blocked by Tristen Alesi. The Cougars’ next drive was halted by a Michael Perrone tackle, and on 4th and 5 their field goal attempt was no good. Torrey Pines
It’s All About the View
It was a big night for Falcon Tristen Alesi on offense and defense. Photo by Anna Scipione drove downfield on the running of Alesi, Feeler, and Murray Kim. Then Kelly connected with Lukas Braun in the end zone to put the Falcons up 21-0 with 17 seconds in the half. On the ensuing kickoff, Braun made the tackle which kept the return from going all the way as time ran out. As Steele Canyon tried to come back, the Falcon pass defense was impressive: Alter, Feeler, Beau Morgans, and Jacob Schneider. Facing 4th and 10 at the Falcon 27, the Cougars had to go for it. Ty Helfrich made the stop for a turnover on downs. On Steele Canyon’s final possession, Alesi came up with an interception and ran it all the way down to the Cougar 7, where the Falcons punched it in to make it 28-0. The Cougars escaped a shutout with a score late in the final period to make the final 28-7. Next game, Torrey Pines takes on Mission Hills. The frosh play at 5 p.m. Thursday at Mission Hills, while the JV host at 4 p.m. and the varsity host at 7 p.m. Friday. It will be the Grizzlies’ season opener.

school. And the district cannot afford to pay their fees for on-line classes. Combining the 30 students into one large group for a math class in one middle school presents the same transportation obstacles and resistance from parents as sending them to their nearest high school. So the options for the parents of these students are to pay for the on-line class, drive their eighth-graders to and from their nearest high schools in the middle of the day for their math class, or delay for one year taking math. Viloria said he’s “spent hours and hours” trying to solve this problem, with no success. Late start highs and lows Finally at long last, the overwhelming consensus by respected researchers and experts that early school start times for teens are detrimental to their health and well-being has convinced the district to adjust bell schedules accordingly and provide students with start-time flexibility. At Earl Warren Middle School, the previous school start time of 7:20 a.m. (completely ridiculous) has been moved later one hour, to 8:20 a.m. Students still have the option of taking a zero period that starts at 7:20, but first period for all others now begins at a sane time. There’s only one glitch: The Earl Warren bus schedule is still matched to the zero period schedule. So pick-up is at 6:45, with drop-off at school at 7:05. Viloria said budget constraints dictate a shared bus for Earl Warren and Carmel Valley Middle School. So in the morning, the bus picks up EWMS kids early and the CVMS kids on time. In the afternoon, the kids from EWMS will be picked up on time and the CVMS kids will need to wait about one hour past the end of school to get picked up by the bus. As one reader wrote to me, “This is crazy.” When the bus schedules don’t support the new bell schedules, it rather defeats the whole purpose of offering a later school start time if kids have to get up and out and be at school over an hour before their first period class. “The bus routes were not able to be changed to have drop-off for all students at all schools at the same time,” Viloria explained, saying there were not enough buses in the fleet. Students riding the a.m. bus to Oak Crest Middle School in Encinitas and Earl Warren in Solana Beach will be dropped off prior to the start of zero period. Those buses then return to run the routes for CVMS and Diegueno Middle School in Encinitas to drop off there in time for first period. In the afternoons, Viloria said, this flips and “the OCMS and EWMS students leave right after the bell rings, whereas the CVMS and DNO students have about a 45 to 50 minute wait for the bus to pick them up.” The district is providing additional staff to supervise students who arrive early or must wait after school for the bus. Viloria said of the approximately 600 Earl Warren students, about 25 percent (125-130) take zero period. But fewer than 30 of those ride the bus to school. Of the 1,350 CVMS students, about 400 taking zero period, he said. In an effort to support families, Viloria said the district is now offering one-way bus passes, so parents can purchase just a.m. or p.m. passes. This approach has been well-received, he said. Nevertheless, the bus schedule is inconsistent with the implementation of a much-needed later start time, although I suppose parents should be grateful they have the bus option at all. Viloria said the district does not have the money to offer more bus routes, noting that busing continues to encroach on the budget, even after charging for passes. Every year the school board considers whether to discontinue busing, but has once again decided to offer it for another year. “I think the board is proud of the fact that [the district is] trying to offer busing,” even though it’s a large expense for the district, Viloria said. The idea of flipping the a.m./p.m. schedule every year is being considered, he said. This would give students at the two-year middle schools one year each of alternate arrival and departure times. ***** A final note: Thanks to all the parents and community members who write to me about their concerns. From the trivial to the potentially explosive, all feedback is always welcome and enlightening. Marsha Sutton can be reached at suttonmarsha@gmail.com.
Attic Construction will help rodent-proof your home By Marti Gacioch
There are few things worse for a homeowner than having visitors decide to stay — especially the four-legged kind like mice and rodents. To eliminate nesting and any future visits, Attic Construction’s professional and friendly technicians can help. The construction team specializes in insulation services and rodent solutions that provide an inventive, non-toxic way to evict undesirable creatures from attics, end their staycation and block their return. When one of the technicians at Attic Construction enters a client’s attic, they look for any openings for mice or rodents. “These creatures can crawl inside a crack the size of a quarter,” said Adam Daniels, lead technician at the company. “They are very smart animals, so it’s important to close up the entire structure’s openings because if they’ve nested, they know the place has their offsprings in it, and they’ll return.” Attic Construction uses professional grade metal screen mesh and sealant — the only material rodents can’t chew through — to treat all entry points. Every gap, crack and crevice is sealed while still allowing for maximum natural airflow. The cleaning part may consist of pulling contaminated insulation along vacuuming any rodent droppings and other debris. Their next step is to sanitize the entire attic area insuring any any foul-smelling contaminants homeowners may be breathing are eliminated. “We don’t use anything toxic, so our clients can remain in the home while we’re working,” Daniels said. Company’s co-owners Caine and Sheiner worked for six years in the Bay Area construction industry before opening San Diego Attic Construction in 2013. “Our key feature is that we don’t define ourselves as a pest control company, but we do offer solutions like closing up openings wherever pests can enter,” Caine said. “And while there’s no 100 percent guarantee with rodents, our methods provide a proven solution that an infestation situation won’t happen again.”

shown that such fears are unfounded. While 62 percent of students picked the academies for the 2015-16 school year, she noted trends do shift. “I’m dedicated to the best possible outcome for all, and I want to move forward with dedicating our efforts to program enhancements and move away from changing the enrollment model to satisfy the few,” she said. Trustees had dealt with the issue of school choice as parents themselves. Trustee Amy Herman’s children went to Torrey Pines and CCA to meet their different needs. President Beth Hergesheimer said her son went to La Costa Canyon, but did struggle with not being able to take as many courses as SDHSA students
could. “My direction is to go with option two, which I do not see as ‘no change.’ I see it as an opportunity to move forward on solving a lot of the problems we’ve been working on for a while.” Throughout the process, Associate Superintendent Michael Grove said that they’ve learned that program equity between all four high schools is crucial, regardless of the enrollment policy. “If we don’t create a system where the student can feel their choices are equitable, we’re going to continue to have excess demand for certain schools,” Grove said. Superintendent Rick Schmitt said the district would continue to work on equity and “fine tune” their school programs in “very smart and collaborative ways.” “We have to create parity so that there’s not a lot-

Everlasting memories of loved ones
George M. Robertson Schaefer January 21, 1935 - August 24, 2015
RANCHO SANTA FE — Rob passed away on August 24, 2015, peacefully in his home with loved ones by his side. He was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on January 21, 1935. He graduated Punahou High School in 1953 and then spent a year at the Hotchkiss School in Connecticut. He went on to study at Stanford University graduating in 1959 with an undergraduate degree in business then furthering his education earning a Master’s Degree in Business Administration at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. Rob settled in Los Angeles in 1963 working in finance in the old financial district on Spring St. He socialized with the Wicket and Cricket club in LA and it was this affiliation through which he met his future wife, Suzanne Helms. They married in 1965 and by 1969 they had two children. In 1970 they moved the family to Rancho Santa Fe, CA, and have lived there ever since. He worked for Manulife as a property manager until he retired in 1996. In his leisure time Rob enjoyed reading, playing
tennis, skiing, games of poker with friends and wine collecting, vacations spent fly fishing were a particular favorite. He volunteered for the Rotary Club and took interest in the goings-on of the town he lived in, serving on the Art Jury which oversees development in the community. Rob is survived by his wife, two children, and two grandchildren. His gentleness, patience, and rock steady demeanor were an anchor to all the people in his life. He will be missed dearly by everyone he loved and by all those who loved him. Rest in Peace. Please sign the guest book online at legacy.com/ obituaries/ranchosantafer eview.

tery,” trustee Mo Muir said. The fresh look at the enrollment process was triggered by Cardiff and Encinitas residents last year, after 65 students were initially not accepted into San Dieguito despite living within walking distance of the school. The district was able to find room for all waitlisted freshmen in 2014, including an additional 125 waitlisted students at CCA. All students were admitted to their school of choice this spring for the 2015 school year. Cardiff and Encinitas parents like Danica Edelbrock and Sarah Gardner have been circulating petitions, rallying in front of San Dieguito and raising awareness about a school choice system they believe is unfair, in which children can be displaced from attending their neighborhood school. “The decision to do nothing and make no change would be a decision to sustain an unfair system,” Gardner told the board. “Make the option primarily for residents who live within the city of Encinitas to attend their local school by default of local residency status,” said Judith Bumann. “I want the right for my kid to go to school around the corner.” Her daughter will be a fifth-generation SDHSA student. The crowd had dwindled some by the time the board made its direction to the superintendent, but most of the 21 speakers favored keeping the school-of-choice enrollment process. “The character of all the schools is different, and that’s a wonderful thing and a strength of the district,” said Carmel Valley resident Cynthia Rajsbaum. “Choice is paramount in my opinion,” said parent Mark Caton. “It makes for better schools and happier students … Choice creates a sense of pride. Why change something that is so extraordinarily good?” The district’s open enrollment method began in 1996 after La Costa Canyon was built, with the intent of creating a balance of diversity between San Dieguito and LCC. In 2004, when the district opened Canyon Crest Academy, the district decided to duplicate the success it had in the north. “I think there’s value in demographic diversity in our schools,” Grove said. “Total capacity is not an issue. It’s about balancing capacity.” If more students opt to attend a school than it can hold, the district conducts a random lottery. State law doesn’t allow geographic proximity as a priority in a lottery. Over the past eight years, an average of 99 per-
cent of students have been admitted to their choice school of San Dieguito. At CCA, the average was 94 percent over eight years with 137 students not accepted to their choice school in the 2013-14 school year. In a survey of 500 eighth-graders, they listed athletics, academics and school culture as their top reasons for choosing La Costa Canyon and Torrey Pines. For the academies, the bell schedule was the top reason students opted for the school, followed by school culture and academic reputation. Art was the last reason students selected TPHS or LCC, and athletics was the last reason students selected SDHSA and CCA. Parents surveyed said academics and school culture were the top two reasons behind choosing a school. Of the three options the board was considering, 45 percent of parents said they most preferred the mix of boundary and open enrollment method, while 35 percent preferred the small attendance areas around the academies. When asked what the least desired outcome would be, 54 percent of parents surveyed said drawing boundaries for all schools. Several CCA parents and teachers spoke of the school’s unique character and what would be “dismantled” if the enrollment method were changed. CCA teacher Christopher Black said the students’ ability to self-select their school is invaluable, because students truly want to be there — the fact that they attend a school because they picked it resonates with them, not because they live on a particular street. Rancho Santa Fe and Solana Beach par-

ents Marti Ritto and Lynne Austin noted that students in their communities don’t have a neighborhood high school. Under the current system, students get the opportunity to select which school will best fit their needs. “Every child is an individual, and the choices in the schools are extremely important. We don’t have a school we can walk across the street to,” Austin said. Former San Dieguito board members Linda Friedman and Sue Hartley both spoke against tampering with the “wonderful” system they helped set in place that has become the envy of districts statewide and across the country. Cardiff parent Destiny Irons questioned the solution of maintaining the status quo when the trends show that more students are selecting academies, and there might not always be room for all to attend their school of choice. “The problem is not going away,” Irons said. She said drawing boundaries is hard work, but work the district needs to do to avoid more problems in the future. Trustee John Salazar said he supported the option of boundaries — around just the academies or around all four schools. “It makes perfect sense that those that live around that school should have the first option to attend that school,” Salazar said. “I think the current system is broken … It makes logical sense to have small boundaries around the four schools.”

Lissebeck has taken over the head golf professional duties. Lissebeck has been in the golf industry for 20 years as a professional at The Grand Golf Club, Maderas Golf Club and Morgan Run Club and Resort. The club will now have a full schedule of one-on-one and small group lessons, more clinics and on-course playing lessons. Instruction caters to all levels, from beginners who just want to get the ball into the air to advanced players looking to refine their skills. Instruction is open to all Rancho Santa Fe Association members, whether or not they are members at the club. The club’s instructional program will feature Johnson as well as the club’s five highquality golf pros who have more than 100 years of combined teaching experience. In addition to having more instruction available, players will also be able to take advantage of new technology such as the FlightScope launch monitor. Since July, the club has been using the FlightScope to measure players’ equipment and ball data during the swing and at impact. “It’s a great teaching and fitting tool,” Johnson said. Golf can be a challenging game to learn, so the ability of the club to offer extra attention and time to player development is a big benefit, Johnson said. He added that they are hoping to get more juniors to the course as well as novices. “We want to get more people involved in playing the game and playing the golf course,” Johnson said. “Rancho Santa Fe is a great golf course with wonderful facilities and a welcoming membership.” For information, visit rsfgolfclub.com.

students who need to provide their own transportation. Earl Warren students are picked up at 6:45 a.m. and dropped off at 7:05 a.m. for the 8:20 a.m. start time. Bartsch said having to wake up early to take the bus defeats the purpose of the later start time for students. Additionally, students will have to wait around for school to start for more than an hour in the library, which requires district staff for supervision. In the afternoon, the kids from Earl Warren will be picked up on time, but the Carmel Valley kids will have to wait an hour past the end of school to be picked up to go home. Bartsch said it’s safer and better for the environment for more students to take a bus than ride with their parents, but because of the “crazy” scheduling, many parents are upset and organizing private carpools. As a result, Bartsch said, there will be more cars at pick-up and drop-off, and the district will see a drop in bus ridership. District officials have acknowledged that the schedule is beyond their control, and they have apologized for the inconvenience. Superintendent Rick Schmitt said that buses can only run once and not at multiple times because they don’t have the fleet or staff. Schmitt said with the different start times, they are trying to offer an element of choice and families will have to choose whether their priority is a later start or transportation. For the first time, the district is selling one-way bus passes, so he noted there are some familyfriendly options to consider for busing. Earlier in the year, the district was considering eliminating all middle school bus service because of the high cost and declining ridership. The district gathered feedback from parents through an online survey, and Trustee Joyce Dalessandro said the board stood firm in retaining it, even though it is expensive and the district no longer gets transportation funding from the state. “To increase our bus fleet or to run a couple times is absolutely not feasible with the funds that we get for education,” Dalessandro said.

Donavon Frankenreiter eager to share ‘Heart’ with Kaaboo festivalgoers BY KRISTINA HOUCK Surfer-turned-singer-songwriter Donavon Frankenreiter will be singing straight from the heart when he shares songs from his new album during the inaugural Kaaboo, a threeday music festival in September at the Del Mar Fairgrounds. “The Heart,” was released Aug. 7. “It should be an amazing three days,” Frankenreiter said of the festival. “Just to be a part of that — it’s awesome.” A Southern California native, Frankenreiter got his start in surfing as a teenager on the beaches of San Clemente. He was 10 years old when he first learned to surf and became a professional in the sport at 16. From waiting for the right wave to waiting for the right deal, Frankenreiter started a career in music more than a decade ago. “I picked up the guitar and was able to bring it everywhere with me,” said Frankenreiter, who has traveled the world as a surfer. Although he has played music since he was 15, he didn’t land his first record deal until he was 30 years old. His debut self-titled album was released in 2004 on close friend Jack Johnson’s Brushfire Records through Universal Music. “I toured and opened up for Jack for a few years,” said Frankenreiter, a married father of two. “That’s how it all started.”

Now, 42, Frankenreiter recently released “The Heart,” with songs he described as “seriously sentimental.” The album marks his second decade as a solo recording artist. He’s released eight full-length albums since the start of his career. He’s also recorded EPs and live albums. “It’s the most intimate and honest record that I’ve made,” said Frankenreiter, who shares writing credits on many of the songs with lyricist Grant-Lee Phillips. “They’re real personal songs.” Based in Hawaii, Frankenreiter recorded the 11-track album in 10 days in May at Blue Rock Studios in Wimberley, Texas. He described the experience at the site, tucked away from the city and among the canyons, as “magical.” “We did about a song a day,” said Frankenreiter, who noted that the sessions streamed live on the Internet. “It was a lot of fun. I love recording like that. You don’t sit around and think about them too long.” Frankenreiter will share some of his new tunes as well as fan favorites at the upcoming Kaaboo. Although this is his first time performing at the fairgrounds, it isn’t his first time taking the stage locally. He’s frequented the Belly Up Tavern and local events, such as Fiesta del Sol in Solana Beach. “I love that area,” Frankenreiter said. “We have a really good time in that area, so it’s a special place.” Frankenreiter hits the stage on Sept. 20, the final day of the festival. “It’s going to be amazing,” he said. “It’s an incredible lineup. I’m thrilled!” For more about Frankenreiter, visit www.donavonf.com. For more about Kaaboo, visit kaaboodelmar.com.

LJ Playhouse to premiere ‘Blueprints to Freedom,’ about civil-rights figure
La Jolla Cultural Partners
BY DIANA SAENGER Last year’s “Selma” — an Oscar nomination for Best Film — brought the unresolved issue of freedom back to the forefront for new generations. Theatergoers are in for a similar reawakening when the world premiere of “Blueprints to Freedom: An Ode to Bayard Rustin,” debuts at La Jolla Playhouse, Sept. 8-Oct. 4. The script comes from Michael Benjamin Washington. Lucie Tiberghien directs the production. African-American Bayard Rustin — an openly gay man born a Quaker — was a civil rights activist who early in his life became a conscientious objector during World War II. He spent a few years in jail, and while there, tried to racially integrate the prison system. “Blueprints” begins in 1963, where Rustin is a proponent of nonviolent civil disobedience. In the South, the issue has fostered a radical state of violence and danger. Rustin is assigned to organize a march for jobs and freedom. However, he becomes exiled from the civil rights movement and struggles with his last chance for professional re-establishment and spiritual redemption. Tiberghien, who directed the Playhouse’s acclaimed production of the Afghan war-centered “Blood and Gifts” in 2012, as well as the DNA New Work Series readings of “Tranquil” and “Being Henrietta,” replaced director/actor Phylicia Rashad, who left the production citing scheduling conflicts. Tiberghien said she decided to become a director after watching directors at a dance school she attended in Geneva, Switzerland.
She adds this production to her lengthy resume and said she became intrigued by Rustin’s story when she saw the PBS documentary “Brother Outsider: The Life of Bayard Rustin.” “I was interested in Bayard’s life, contributions and personal and political story,” Tiberghien said. “He worked closely with Martin Luther King and was the main architect of the March on Washington in 1963. That’s the event this play is centered on. Bayard traveled to India, and after Gandhi was assassinated, he studied nonviolence. He encouraged Martin Luther King to embrace the ideas of passive resistance and nonviolence as a way to make change.” Washington wrote the play and also stars as Rustin. Tiberghien acknowledged his challenge. “It’s hard to be inside and out at the same time,” she said. “He’s doing an incredible job and is a wonderful actor. He has to step outside and look at the play objectively, and then step inside and look into the eyes of the main character. For me, to help guide that process is very interesting.” Tiberghien said the creative team (Neil Patel, scenic design; Beth Goldenberg, costume design; Lap Chi Chu, lighting design; Joe Huppert, sound design; John Narun, projection design; Gabriel Greene, dramaturge, and Peter Van Dyke, stage manager) is essential in this type of production. “Michael’s writing is really strong and he has a clear sense of visuals, so he has written in a lot of visual projection into this project,” she said. “The work of the production designer, as well as the other designers, is key in making this historical event a theatrical piece. The march itself is an exciting

Rosenberg, playwright Michael Benjamin Washington, director Lucie Tiberghien and playhouse artistic director Christopher Ashley, prepare for the world premiere of ‘Blueprints to Freedom: An Ode to Bayard Rustin.’ Courtesy photo big production with historical footage and images. There’s a scene with Rustin and King that reveals who they are behind closed doors. “I was also intrigued that Michael, with great insight, wrote a female character who is passionate and very active politically and socially.” “Blueprints to Freedom: An Ode to Bayard Rustin,” is a co-production with Kansas City Repertory Theatre. Of the production, Playhouse artistic director Christopher Ashley has said, “With victories and setbacks to the cause of equality in the news every day, the ideas and themes of ‘Blueprints to Freedom’ call out urgently to us. We’re proud to welcome this dynamic and talented cast and creative team to illuminate Bayard Rustin’s quest for identity and redemption.” “Blueprints to Freedom: An Ode to Bayard Rustin,” runs Sept. 8-Oct. 4 in the Potiker Theatre at La Jolla Playhouse, 2910 La Jolla Village Drive on the UCSD campus.

Free square dance class offered A free “Introduction to Modern American Square Dance” lesson is being offered to the community by the Sandpipers Square Dance Club, which serves the North Coast from Oceanside to Del Mar, when the club’s new dancer class starts at 7 p.m. Sept. 8. Anyone interested in seeing if Square Dancing is something they would like to do are invited to try a free class on their first visit. Modern American Square Dancing uses a variety of musical styles. Dancers learn dance movements rather than memorize dances, then follow the lead of a square dance “caller” as he or she creates the dance on the fly to fit the music. The classes are great exercise and provide a mental break from the routines of the day, and the emphasis is on fun, according to club President Terry Thompson. Children up to age 10 are welcome to participate along with their parents. For those wishing to continue after their first free lesson, class will continue from 7-9 p.m. Tuesdays at La Colonia Community Center, 715 Valley Ave., Solana Beach, 92075. For information, contact club president Thompson at 858-748-4219 or visit the Sandpipers at www.SandpipersSquareDanceClub.org.

‘Sherlock Holmes,’ French farce among works featured in NC Rep’s new season In choosing the roster for North Coast Repertory Theatre’s Season 34, artistic director David Ellenstein said plays were picked that celebrate the joy, pathos and resiliency of the human spirit. “We chose works that we believe not only reflect the tastes of our loyal subscribers, but will also appeal to a wide spectrum of theater-lovers throughout the county,” he said. The intimate theater is poised to present a mix of West Coast premieres “including comic gems, absorbing dramas and a delightful musical.” The season opens Sept. 9 with Ken Ludwig’s “The Fox on the Fairway.” Matthew Wiener directs the laugh fest, which plays through Oct. 4. Tony Award-winning actress Judith Ivey directs the West Coast premiere of “Chapatti” by Christian O’Reilly, Oct. 21-Nov. 15. Two lonely animal lovers in Dublin cross paths, and an unexpected spark begins as they re-discover the importance of human companionship. This heartwarming second-chance comedy celebrates unforgettable characters who still believe in love. “Sherlock Holmes and the Adventure of the Great Nome Gold Rush,” kicks off the New Year. Ellenstein directs the World premiere, Jan. 13-Feb. 7, 2016. The world’s greatest sleuth will stop at nothing to prove a client innocent of murder, even if it means traveling to the Wild West frontier town of Nome, Alaska, and ending up at a bar run by Wyatt Earp. This wild and woolly adventure is full of intrigue, mystery, deception and duplicity. “Now You See It” plays Feb. 24-March 20, 2016. It’s the West Coast premiere of a farce by the French master George Feydeau, in a brilliant translation by British playwright Kenneth McLeish and directed by Bruce Turk. Audiences witness a dizzying escapade fueled by jealousy bordering on paranoia, a philandering husband, hypnotism, a spurned lover and a scandalous discovery. The third West Coast premiere, “Way Downriver: William Faulkner’s ‘Old Man’” debuts April 13-May 8, 2016
with Ellenstein at the helm. A flood of Biblical proportions on the mighty Mississippi provides the dramatic backdrop to this edge-ofyour seat adventure. It reveals an unlikely pair of souls who are bound together by the forces of nature, and who struggle to overcome their fears and prejudice in order to survive their harrowing experiences. “Hedda Gabler,” arguably one of the most com-

plex and intriguing female characters ever written, will have its world premiere adaptation, created by the company at North Coast Rep, translated by AnneCharlotte Harvey and directed by Ellenstein. It’s a mesmerizing tale of a woman trapped in a loveless marriage and driven by a need for power and freedom, June 1-June 26, 2016. Season 34 concludes with “Ain’t Misbehavin’” July 13-Aug. 7, 2016, directed by Obie Award winner Yvette Freeman. Based on the signature Fats Waller song, this rousing musical revue takes audiences back to the glory days of the Harlem Renaissance when the Cotton Club and Savoy Ballroom served as playgrounds for high society. The holiday show will be the return engagement of “This Wonderful Life” by Steve Murray and starring James Leaming, Dec. 8-27. North Coast Repertory Theatre is at 987 Lomas Santa Fe Drive, Solana Beach. Tickets: 858-481-1055 or northcoastrep.org.

SPOTLIGHT on LOCAL BUSINESS SD-based Moms Making Six Figures ‘provides flexibility for your life’ With school now back in session, the moms of Moms Making Six Figures are ready for another year of activities, from ball games to field trips. “I always say that I’m not a stay-at-home mom because I still work, but I’m an available mom,” said Jennifer Becker, mother of two girls, now 4 and 6 years old. “I can work, yet I can still do all the things that stay-at-home moms get to do.” After a 15-year corporate career, Becker began a new career with Moms Making Six Figures, a San Diego-based marketing company that allows women to stay at home and either replace or supplement their income. Having been a part of the company for nearly two years, Becker’s thankful she left the corporate world behind. Moms Making Six Figures offers her the flexibility she needed as a mom without sacrificing a six-figure income.

“I really enjoyed my corporate life,” said Martin, who worked in technology for more than 14 years. She started with Moms Making Six Figures in 2012. “I went to school, worked really hard and really enjoyed climbing the corporate ladder. But when you have children and things start to change, there’s a shift in your priorities.” Martin traded one dream job for another and is still able to earn a six-figure income but also benefit from a flexible schedule. “You dream of being a mom, but you don’t dream of someone else picking them up and not being able to volunteer in the classroom,” said Martin, a mother of five. “With Moms Making Six Figures, I feel like I can accomplish all that I want.” Offering women an opportunity to work from home, local entrepreneur Heidi Bartolotta quit her job and founded Moms Making Six Figures with two other women in December 2009. Since then, Moms Making Six Figures has grown to more than 400 team members, enabling women to either replace or supplement their income. “It provides flexibility for your life,” said Bartolotta, a former pharmaceutical sales representative, whose daughters are 9 and 11 years old. “There’s also no cap on your income.” Although the company launched in San Diego, there are now team members across the United States and around the world. Teams have long been established in San Diego County, Orange County and the Bay Area. Teams have also launched in several states, including Arizona, Nevada, Illinois, Georgia, Tennessee and New York, as well as overseas in Australia, Poland and the United Kingdom. Women from very different education levels, backgrounds and work styles make up Moms Making Six Figures, Bartolotta said. Interested team members don’t have to have a marketing background, but they do have to have self-motivation and the desire to succeed because they make their own schedules and work from home, she added. “That’s such a huge part of the draw of Moms Making Six Figures — the team,” Martin said. “There’s a lot of other women who want what you want. They’re willing to work for it and they’re willing to work together for it.” Wanting to expand the team at home and abroad, Bartolotta and her team members encourage interested women to contact the company by filling out a form on the website at www.momsmakingsixfigures.com/contact. “I was really skeptical two years ago. If I would have let skepticism get the best of me, then I probably never would have called,” Becker said. “It’s a no-obligation phone call. It could be the best phone call you’ll ever make.” For information, call 858-837-1505 or visit momsmakingsixfigures.com.

Zable Foundation awards $20K to San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy The San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy (SDRVC) has been awarded a $20,000 grant from the Walter J and Betty C. Zable Foundation towards construction of the River Path Del Mar. The conservancy is spearheading the effort to build the River Path extension for residents and visitors to learn about the lagoon environment and the River Valley Park. The River Path provides a scenic overlook of the San Dieguito Lagoon and River, complete with interpretive signage of the flora and fauna of the river and lagoon. The trail goes from Jimmy Durante Boulevard west to the coast and parallels the south edge of the river, providing beautiful water views and information regarding this important wetland and natural resource. This grant will help fund the construction of the portion of River Path Del Mar from Jimmy Durante Boulevard east to the Old Grand Avenue Bridge, providing scenic vistas of the lagoon wetlands and interpretive information of the flora and fauna. The total project cost is estimated at $475,000. This cost includes project design, entitlements and easement acquisition, environmental review and mitigation, and construction. Sixty-five percent of the funding has been committed through a $150,000 grant provided by the county of San Diego through District 3 Supervisor Dave Roberts; $73,000 in private donations received by the Conservancy; $54,500 in grants received by the Conservancy ($20,000 from the Tippett Foundation, $20,000 from the Zable Foundation, $7,000 from REI, $6,000 from the Del Mar Foundation and $1,500 from the California 10/20 Race), and $35,000 through the city of Del Mar, including a $5,000 grant from the Friends of the San Dieguito River Valley. “This is the first donation San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy has been awarded by the Zable Foundation and we are very pleased to be partnering with them on the project,” said Trish Boaz, executive director of the Conservancy. The coastal area, which includes the San Dieguito Lagoon, is the “gateway” to the San Dieguito River Park. It has vital ecological importance for the region as a stop for birds on the Pacific Flyway and as nesting and foraging areas for endangered, threatened and sensitive animal and plant species. Building on a lifetime of community philanthropy, the Walter J. and Betty C. Zable

Oct. 10 Sounds of Hope for Children Rady event to feature Rob Thomas Multi-Grammy Awardwinning singer, songwriter and recording artist Rob Thomas will perform at the 10th Sounds of Hope for Children concert. Presented by the Carmel Valley Unit of Rady Children’s Hospital Auxiliary, the Oct. 10 event will benefit the hospital’s Neurotherapy Center. “The Neurotherapy Center at Rady Children’s Hospital provides restorative therapies to pediatric neurology patients that are not available anywhere else in the U.S.,” said event co-chair Edith Singer Rob Thomas will perform at the Oct. 10 Sounds Smith. “We are delighted to of Hope for Children concert. Courtesy photo have the opportunity to raise awareness and much-needed funds for the Center.” The Center is part of Rady Children’s Division of Neurosurgery, which provides pre-operative evaluation, surgical intervention, and pre- and post-operative care for disorders of the brain, spine, calvarial vault and peripheral nerves, explains Smith. “It is imperative that we continue to provide and expand the opportunities for restoring lost function and minimizing surgical risks to these young neurological patients. The funds we raise at Sounds of Hope will help the Hospital accomplish that,” she said. The Neurosurgery Division’s specialists perform more than 600 surgeries annually, including brain tumor surgeries, craniofacial procedures and cerebrovascular spinal fluid diversions. U.S. News and World Reports has ranked Rady Children’s Hospital’s Neurosurgery and Neurology programs among the nation’s best for four consecutive years. “The Carmel Valley Unit’s Sounds of Hope for Children has presented top musical talent including Seal, Earth Wind & Fire, Al Green, the Goo Goo Dolls, Maroon 5, the Disco Divas headlined by Chaka Khan, and Mat Kearney,” Smith said. “We are excited to add Rob Thomas to our list of incredible performers.” Sounds of Hope for Children concerts have raised more than $4 million and benefited Rady Children’s Hospital departments including: Speech and Hearing, Emergency and Trauma, Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) (twice), Allergy and Asthma, the Chadwick Center for Children and Families, the NICU at Scripp’s Encinitas, and the Autism Discovery Institute. Sounds of Hope for Children has made it possible to fund numerous critical items including Giraffe Isolettes for the most fragile, tiny patients in the NICU; communication helmets and trauma counseling sessions for the hard-working staff in the Emergency and Trauma unit; sensitive audio equipment needed to assess the youngest of patients suspected to be suffering from a hearing impairment; and trauma sessions for children who have experienced abuse, neglect or a traumatic event in their lives. In the case of the Autism Discovery Institute, the funds raised were used to build a playground specifically designed to meet the special needs of children with autism.

LONGTIME SOLANA BEACH
CHIROPRACTOR TAKING PRACTICE TO A NEW LEVEL WITH INNOVATIVE HEALTH PROGRAM Upcoming free event will beneďŹ t patients looking to make positive lifestyle changes With more than 25 years of chiropractic experience, Dr. Lamont Loy has treated patients suffering from a myriad of pain issues. And while chiropractors are most sought for their abilities to relieve this pain through chiropractic adjustments or massage, it’s about something bigger for Dr. Loy. It’s about everyday wellness. “I see people coming in not sure of where their pain is coming from and they’re 50 pounds overweight,â€? Dr. Loy said. “Pain is only a symptom of a bigger issue that is going on.â€? Dr. Loy has been practicing in the Solana Beach and Del Mar areas since 1989. He takes care of individuals in all stages of life. He graduated from the University of California, San Diego and attended the prestigious Cleveland Chiropractic College in Los Angeles, earning his Doctor of Chiropractic degree. Dr. Loy’s specialties include chiropractic care, alternative to drugs or surgery, restoration of nervous system functions, pain relief, pediatric care solutions, massage therapy and relief of headaches, digestive issues, insomnia and asthma. It was during a recent advanced industry training that Dr. Loy realized how he could make even more of an impact on his large client base than he already has. He saw renowned, award-winning wellness expert, Dr. Dane Donahue, speak at an event and was immediately hooked to his message. Dr. Loy’s practice is getting in on the act, introducing Dr. Donahue’s innovative 8 Weeks to Wellness plan to the patients and local citizens. “One day I just said, ‘I am a doctor and want to help people,’â€? Loy said. “It’s time to take my practice to the next level.â€? What is 8WW? 8WW is a comprehensive wellness program optimizing what you think about, how you eat and supplement, and how you exercise and care for your body through speciďŹ c actions. It can be customized to ďŹ t individual needs and wellness goals.
Here are the four essential takeaways of the 8WW program: s Wellness Versus Sickness Care: Focused on highlighting the importance of preventive care and how it can impact your wellbeing. s Making the Best Choices: Learn how to make everyday life choices that will improve your overall health. s Realistic Options: Learn how to get the most out of a realistic, ongoing program of care for yourself. s The What, How and Why: Grasp the strategies and tools you need to translate the 8WW teachings into real-life application. Upcoming 8WW Event Dr. Loy is hosting an 8WW event – the ďŹ rst of its kind in San Diego County – on Sept. 10 at Debin Hall at SB Presbyterian Church in Solana Beach. The event will feature inspirational messages, a complimentary meal and a keynote speech by Dr. Donahue. Dr. Loy urges all community members to come out and learn how they can turn around their physical, mental and spiritual health. As part of the program, participants receive a wellness score on important body metrics. Blood work is taken, as are vital signs, height, weight, waist measurement and heart rate. “We really take a look under the hood,â€? Dr. Loy said. “From that score we are working to improve drastically during the eight weeks, and then beyond.â€? Even though the program’s title includes the timeframe of eight weeks, Dr. Loy says people will receive the tools to make lifelong changes. Meditation is also a key aspect of 8WW. “It was my passion to help change people’s lives from the inside out,â€? Dr. Loy said. “I believe this program will be highly successful in helping people achieve these goals. Dr. Loy has room left in the upcoming event, so reach out today. Reserve your seat at the upcoming event by calling (858) 436-7162. “It’s a lifestyle program that really changes behaviors,â€? he said. “We’re focused to improve the health of our community.â€?

Greek Festival in Cardiff to run Sept. 12-13 Saints Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church welcomes the San Diego community to experience Hellenic cuisine, entertainment and hospitality during the 37th annual Cardiff Greek Festival on Sept. 12-13. The parish will donate 10 percent of festival profits to support building the St. Nicholas National Shrine at the World Trade Center. For a $3 admission (children under 12 are free), festival attendees will be transported into a quaint Greek village, serenaded by live entertainers across three stages, including renowned Southern California Greek band 4 Greeks LA. The parish’s youngest members — ages 5 through high school — will perform folk dances in traditional costumes. Delicacies will be available, such as souvlaki (shish kabobs), loukaniko (sausage), dolmathes (stuffed grape leaves) and gyros. Vegetarian fare includes tiropitas (cheese triangles in filo) and spanakopita (spinach pie). The Kafenio (café) boasts mouth-watering desserts and coffee. An open marketplace will typify a traditional bazaar. The Rev. Father Michael Sitaras, pastor of Saints Constantine and Helen, will host tours of the church. A Fun Zone with games, crafts, and miniature golf will ensure children enjoy their time as much as the adults. A photo booth will help preserve the experience, and a chance to win a 2015 Mercedes-Benz CLA will keep the festival’s excitement going until the very end. “This year, we are blessed to not only share our culture with the San Diego community, but also extend our support to provide a place of worship and peaceful reflection at the site of the horrific tragedy,” said Father Sitaras. The Saint Nicholas National Shrine is being erected at ground zero, replacing the small Greek Orthodox Church that was destroyed Sept. 11, 2001 when the South Tower fell. The shrine will welcome people of all faiths to visit while touring the 9/11 Memorial and the Memorial Museum. The Cardiff Greek Festival will be celebrated from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Sept. 12 and from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 13 on the grounds of Saints Constantine and Helen, 3459 Manchester Ave. The church is a half-mile east of I-5 at the Manchester exit in Cardiff-bythe-Sea. Free parking is available at adjacent MiraCosta College. Visit www.cardiffgreekfest. com. More information on the Saint Nicholas National Shrine is available at http://www. stnicholaswtc.org/.

A Tree House Finds its Roots My husband Charlie grew up in The Bronx in New York, no doubt surrounded by brick and concrete, and one day he told me that he had always dreamed of having a tree house. I am happy to say that we are finally giving him that dream. Thanks to the great work of the designers and landscapers at www.naturedesigns.net, my family and I have decided to transition our backyard to make it completely sustainable and eco-friendly: a
real life tree house! We realized that living in Rancho Santa Fe is such a beautiful privilege that we wanted to give back to not only the community, but the environment as well. Over the coming months, we will be improving our irrigation system to maximum efficiency while creating a colorful yet lowwater landscape. We want to surround ourselves with beautiful, native, drought resistant plants, while maintaining an outdoor living space that welcomes guests and dogs alike. We will be improving the soil by adding compost and mulch to retain moisture. These are just a few of the additions and changes we will be making to our yard, and we welcome others in the community to follow in our footsteps. Below are some tips for making your yard sustainable and environmentally happy. Irrigation -- Monitor water usage weekly and check the
irrigation system regularly for water run-off, leaks, and overspray. -- Program three start times per watering day. Run zone should only run as long as the water soaks into the soil. Once run-off occurs, stop watering. Wait 1-2 hours, then run that zone again. Then repeat. This allows the water to saturate deeper into the soil and reduces runoff. Plants are able to grow roots into the deeper moisture which strengthens them. --Once established, native and drought tolerant plants will need very little irrigation. Make sure to adjust according to their needs. -- Adjust timing seasonally to account for heat and cooler temperatures, and dormant months. -- Use a Smart controller to make programming easier to adjust. -- Consider installing a greywater system. Pools -- Add a pool cover if possible to reduce

evaporation. -- Install solar heating. -- Replace inefficient and loud single speed pool pumps with high-efficiency, quiet, variable speed pumps. -- Convert to a salt system, UV, ionic, or oxidation water quality system. Planting Beds -- Space plants appropriately according to their mature size to reduce pruning labor and green waste. -- Let the leaves drop and stay in place or compost them and return them to the planting bed so they can return nutrients to the soil. -- Choose drought tolerant and disease resistant plants.

Modern fairy-tale musical ‘Violet’ opens 40th San Diego REP season San Diego REPertory Theatre presents “Violet,” a modern fairy-tale musical composed by 2015 Tony Award Winner Jeanine Tesori, based on “The Ugliest Pilgrim” by Doris Betts. The cast includes many names from local and regional theater, including Katelyn Katz of Carmel Valley, who plays “Little Violet,” and recent UCSD graduate Hannah Corrigan in the title role. The winner of the Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Musical, “Violet” is filled with show-stopping anthems of the 1960s American South. Performances run through Sept. 13 on the Lyceum Stage. At age 13, a freak accident left Violet’s face disfigured. As she matures in the hills of North Carolina, Violet dreams of becoming beautiful. Her faith convinces her that a televangelist in Tulsa can heal her. As she turns 25, Violet hops a bus and begins the journey towards what she is sure will be a miraculous transformation. But on the road, Violet discovers the true meaning of beauty — what can be seen and can’t. “‘Violet’ is the story of an outsider seeking her place at the table,” said Sam Woodhouse, REP artistic director who is also directing the production, first in the theater’s 40th season. “The main character sets off in search of finding beauty in herself. It’s a deep American story about faith, healing, the desire for transformation and how the desire to be beautiful informs our lives.” The score features country, blues, gospel and honky-tonk rock from one of the most-applauded composers of contemporary musical theatre, Jeanine Tesori (“Caroline Or Change,” “Thoroughly Modern Millie,” “Shrek The Musical”), who just won the 2015 Tony Award for “Fun Home” (Best Musical Score). For tickets, call 619-544-1000. For group sales, call Vaughn Rainwater, Group Sales Associate, at 619-544-1001. Tickets available for purchase online at www.sdrep.org.

APN: 269-202-40-00 TS No: CA08006688-14-1 TO No: 110494597 NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED March 29, 2005. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDINGS AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. On September 14, 2015 at 10:30 AM, at the entrance to the East County Regional Center by statue, 250 E. Main Street, El Cajon, CA 92020, MTC Financial Inc. dba Trustee Corps, as the duly Appointed Trustee, under and pursuant to the power of sale contained in that certain Deed of Trust recorded on April 4, 2005, as Instrument No. 2005-0271917, and that said Deed of Trust was modified by Modification Agreement recorded on April 18, 2008 as Instrument Number 2008-0206442 of official records in the Office of the Recorder of San Diego County, California, executed by RAY W. GRIMM JR. AND DARAN W. GRIMM, HUSBAND AND WIFE, as Trustor(s), in favor of <B>MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC. </B>as nominee for CHEVY CHASE BANK, F.S.B. as Beneficiary, WILL SELL AT PUBLIC AUCTION TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, in lawful money of the United States, all payable at the time of sale, that certain property situated in said County, California describing the land therein as: AS MORE FULLY DESCRIBED IN SAID DEED OF TRUST The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 17061 CIRCA DEL SUR, RANCHO SANTA FE, CA 92067 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made without covenant
or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the Note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said Note(s), advances if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligations secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of this Notice of Trustee’s Sale is estimated to be $3,013,188.20 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same Lender may hold more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the property.Notice to Property Owner: The sale date shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary, Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call In Source Logic at 702659-7766 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit the Internet Web site address listed below for information regarding the sale of this property, using the file number assigned to this case, CA08006688-14-1. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale d l b fl d
may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

Professional baker brings ‘Edible Art’ to Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund opens RSF Community Center starting Sept. 14 new season with Sept. 16 lunch meeting Rosanne (Ro) Zinniger brings her creative style of baking to the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center beginning Sept. 14 with her “Edible Art” class. Sessions will be offered from 3:15-4:15 p.m. Tuesdays for children in grades 2 through 5. Each week will feature a new project where students will learn a lifelong skill. The class runs weekly through Oct. 27 and costs $250 per student. Zinniger has been featured on The Food Network, the T.L.C. “Fabulous Cakes” show, and the Celebrity Chefs Tour and was a demonstrator/emcee for the San Diego Gourmet Expo. Her passion for teaching led her to open her own school of baking and confectionery arts and retail supply shop named Ro Z’s Sweet Art Studio in North San Diego County. She later transformed the studio into private teachings, professional training, parties and corporate team building. For information or to register for the class, call 858-756-2461 or visit www.RSFCC.org.
The Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund will kick off a new year of activities and programs with a lunch at noon Sept. 16 at the Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club. Every year the fund targets a specific community need; this year’s focus will be on Youth and Education. The kickoff meeting will feature a panel discussion with community educators from the private and public sector to discuss education trends, including technology and the Common Core curriculum. Speakers will be Colleen O’Doyle, head of middle school at La Jolla Country Day School, and Dennis “Coach” Snyder, president / founder of the American Heritage Education Foundation. The event will be open to women who may have an interest in learning about the Rancho Santa Fe Women’s Fund. Now in its 11th year, this nonprofit organization has pooled its resources to make an impact on the lives of those in need in the San Diego community. Please bring a friend or neighbor to share in this informative event. Registration and socializing begin at noon.

La Costa Film Festival to offer free panels on diversity, sports, pitchmaking Film buffs are invited to attend the 2015 La Costa Film Festival Panel Series, an opportunity to learn and experience and interact with leading film industry experts. The free panels will take place Sept. 12 at the Omni La Costa Resort & Spa at the Coastal Event Center. “A film festival does more than offer entertainment,” said Michael and Ruby Callihan of LCFF. “It often educates and, with the lineup we have this year, it is sure to be a hit with San Diego film lovers.” “The Game Changer — What Adding Women Can Do For Your Business or Film” (Panel 1) will be presented at 11 a.m. with five well-connected panelists. “Storytelling Through Sports: Why It Works” (Panel 2) will be at 1:30 p.m., and the “Reel Pitch — 10 Live Film Pitches” takes place at 3:30 p.m. Vouchers for attendance to any of the free panels are available at lacostafilmfestival.org.
Join the Del Mar Foundation for a free presentation from 6-8 p.m. Sept. 15 on “Our Next Earthquake,” by Dr. Debi Kilb, a nationally acclaimed earthquake expert at Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Kilb will be talking about her research and what it means to our region. “Research based on plate tectonics indicates we are overdue for an earthquake on the southern part of the San Andreas Fault, suggesting a large earthquake will happen,” she said. “It is just a matter of time.” She goes on to say that “the uncertainties in these calculations are large, indicating a big earthquake on the San Andreas could rupture today, tomorrow or 100 years from now. We need to be prepared, not scared.” Kilb has a primary research interest in mainshock/aftershock sequences, with a focus on earthquake source mechanics and earthquake triggering processes. Her studies address questions such as: Do small and large earthquakes begin similarly? What are the underlying physics responsible for aftershock generation? How can we unravel the source, path, and site effects within earthquakes? The presentation, followed by questions and answers, takes place at the Powerhouse Community Center. A wine and cheese reception will begin at 6 p.m., and the program begins at 6:30 p.m. Reservations are required and can be made at www.delmarfoundation.org.

Gimme Da Lute winner of $100K El Cajon Stakes at Del Mar track BY KELLEY CARLSON Part-time Del Mar resident Mike Pegram had reason to celebrate on Saturday afternoon when his horse, Gimme Da Lute, survived a three-way battle down the stretch and won the $100,000 El Cajon Stakes at Del Mar by a half-length. Gimme Da Lute’s stablemate, Fame and Power, came in second, while Desert Dynamo was a neck behind in third. Three-year-old Gimme Da Lute completed the mile on the main track in 1:35.79. The bay colt is owned and bred by Pegram, Karl Watson and Paul Weitman, and trained by Bob Baffert. Baffert was absent from the winner’s circle ceremony, as he was in Saratoga Springs, N.Y., to saddle Triple Crown winner American Pharoah in the Grade I, $1.6 million Travers Stakes at Saratoga racetrack. American Pharoah lost for the first time since his first race at Del Mar in August 2014, finishing second to Keen Ice. The champion returned to the seaside oval this week. Meanwhile, Stellar Wind won the only graded Del Mar race held in the past week, the Grade III, $100,000 Torrey Pines Stakes. Minor stakes winners were Point Piper ($86,880 Harry F. Brubaker Stakes) and Patriotic Diamond ($150,000 Generous Portion Stakes).

This event is a fundraiser for www.Summit4StemCell.org, supporting a non-embryonic stemcell research project underway at the Scripps Clinic and Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla. Using a Nobel Prize-winning approach, researchers take a Parkinson’s patient’s own skin cells and reverse-process them into induced pluripotent stem cells. Those stem cells are then developed into dopamine-producing neurons, which will be transplanted back into the patient’s brain. Parkinson’s is caused by dopamine neuron deficiency. This promising effort is being funded by private donations, grants, and fundraising, not pharmaceutical companies.
