Planners support military housing By KAREN BRAINARD Ramona Community Planning Group members were receptive to the idea of affordable housing geared toward veterans and active military, as presented by representatives of kirE Companies. Called Patriot Square,

the project is proposed for 16th Street, just south of McDonald’s. The development could consist of eight two-story buildings with each building containing no more than eight units for a total of 64, but kirE President Josh Santa told See MILITARY HOUSING on page 12

Cedar Creek Falls to stay closed till April U.S. Forest Service announced Monday that the Cedar Creek Falls trailhead, trail and falls area will remain closed as the forest service continues to work with partner agencies and interested public groups to develop safety measures. The forest service closed the scenic but rugged area to the public last summer after a teenage boy fell

to his death from a rocky cliff. It will remain off-limits to hikers and mountainbikers until next spring to allow for completion of a management plan for the site, ofﬁcials said. The Cedar Creek Falls closure, originally due to end Tuesday, Nov. 8, is now scheduled to last through April 1.

Honoring a fallen hero on Main Street, Ramona Editor’s Note: Ramona resident Pat Kiernan wrote this tribute after standing at Seventh and Main Streets for three and a half hours Saturday morning, waiting for the funeral procession that would take the remains of Cpl. Eugene “Mackie” Morelli, listed as missing in action in the Korean War, to his burial place on the Mesa Grande Indian Reservation.

By PAT KIERNAN would like to start off by saying a very heartfelt “thank you” to all who have served this stillgreat country in which we live.

Thank you to those who have had to ﬁght, risk everything and have made the ultimate sacriﬁce. The special event of Ramona’s and other neighboring communities’ citizens lining up on Main Street on Saturday morning to honor one of our community members who gave his life in the service of his/our country was the right thing to do. My father was in the Korean War and, though he rarely talked about it, I do remember asking him to tell me one of his experiences when I was about

10 years old. He made it short, but what he said was that one day about 30 members of his platoon went out to take a hill and only nine returned alive. My mother told me years later that my father told her that he was lying on the ground behind tree roots while the bullets were hitting the tops of the roots. We owe it to our heroes to never forget and to honor their sacriﬁces by striving to keep this country great. We must hold strong to the values on which the United States

was founded. Friday morning, I received an e-mail from the office of Sen. Joel Anderson about the funeral procession that would take place on Saturday morning along Main Street in Ramona. The message asked if we could honor Corporal Eugene “Mackie” Morelli, whose remains had finally been identified from the Korean War, by lining up along Main Street at 8:30 a.m., while the funeral procession See TRIBUTE on page 15

Centers for teens, seniors in jeopardy This is the first in a series about two centers in Ramona, one for older people and one for teens. This week’s article targets the Ramona Senior Center, which celebrated its 37th anniversary this spring. Arriba Teen Center celebrated its second anniversary in September. The future of both is in jeopardy. Without higher attendance, the senior center may close, says its director. The teen center needs more adult volunteers.

nless something changes at Ramona Senior Center, “if we’re here in 18 months, I’d be surprised,” Ray Cardona, center director, said. “We’re trying to get people to reach out to seniors to bring them in so they know — we’re the best kept secret in town,” Cardona said last Friday. Take A Senior to Lunch Day at the center on Tuesday, Nov. 15, is a step toward introducing more residents age 60 and older to the center. Each senior at the center is encouraged to bring another person to lunch to see all the center offers. “The idea is to get somebody who hasn’t been here, let them know who we are and what we’re all about,” said Cardona, director for nearly nine years. Another step is a slight name

change. Volunteers answering the center’s telephone no longer say, “Good morning, Ramona Senior Center.” It’s “Good morning, Ramona Senior Activity Center.” Soon it will be, “Good morning, Ramona Nutrition and Activity Center,” said Cardona, extolling the many opportunities at the center. Open weekdays from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. in Ramona Community Center at 434 Aqua Lane, the senior center provides lunch, classes ranging from exercise to computers, a Wii game, pool table, reading material, Ramblers travel group — even a bigscreen television. “We need to build up our clientele,” said Cardona, explaining “the way we get paid from the county is per person who signs in for lunch.” With a 2011-12 operating budget of about $400,000, the center already has a deficit of $23,000, said Cardona. The budget year started July 1. The Ramona center, operated by the Pacific Educational Facilities, is one of the original nutrition sites in San Diego County, Cardona said, commenting on changes he’s seen that reflect today’s society as well as reality. At its attendance peak, about 95 people a day filled the center. The average has dropped to 40.

“Of the original seniors, seven are alive,” said Cardona. “In August, the last three weeks of August, we had 11 seniors pass away...We lost some incredibly dear dear friends, and the surviving spouse, some had to go to nursing homes because they were taking care of each other.” Because of the economy, “new seniors are having to work longer or they’re moving in with their kids or they’re moving their kids in,” he said. Because in many two-parent homes both spouses must work, “in some cases, grandma and grandpa are the babysitters,” he added. “This is not your meat and potatoes senior,” Cardona said. “They’re your tofu...’Oh, my God, that is for old people.’” He fondly recalled Mabel Leggitt, who died a month before her 101st birthday. “This place is for old people,” she told You Are Not Alone (YANA) volunteers when she was 99. YANA volunteers convinced her to celebrate her 100th birthday at the center, said Cardona, “and from that day forward she had to be here every day.” If he had his druthers, Cardona would match high school students with the seniors, the center would be on Main Street near Ramona LiSee SENIOR CENTER on page 3

KNOW WHAT YOU’RE ENTITLED TO—That’s the theme of the Veterans Benefits Workshop hosted by American Legion Post 332 in the Ramona Library Community Room from 6 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 29. Since the post’s regularly scheduled meeting on the fourth Friday of the month is the day after Thanksgiving, the workshop will take the place of that meeting. Don Scott, the post’s first vice commander, said that representatives from the Veterans of Foreign Wars, American Legion and Congressman Duncan Hunter’s office are among those expected to have tables set up to help veterans learn about their benefits. Many veterans to not know what they are entitled to, commented Scott. After an overview presentation and welcome, those attending will be invited to go to what Scott called “go-to tables”

that will have information about things such as medical benefits, jobs for veterans and shelters in the area. The workshop, open to all veterans and their families, is still in the planning stage, and Scott said more information will be available closer to the date. MARINE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION—Ramona Community Brass Band, formerly the Ramona Town Hall Brass Band, will provide the music at the 236th anniversary of the U.S. Marine Corps at the VFW Post 3783 at 2247 Kelly St. on Nov. 10. Included will be an official Marine Corps cake cutting ceremony. Guest of honor will be retired U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt. Steven R. Schweitzer, former bandmaster of the 1st Marine Division Band during Operation Iraqi Freedom. The ceremony starts at 6:30 p.m. with a band serenade.

Design review board doesn’t like looks of health clinic design By KAREN BRAINARD Ramona Design Review Board sent Palomar Pomerado Health (PPH) officials and architects back to the drawing board to revise their medical clinic design.

Design review board members said the building design was different from the two-story, nearly 37,000-sqaure-foot building they approved almost two years ago. The clinic has since been downsized due to the economy and fewer tenants, said Shanahan.

Chair Debi Klingner said she was not a huge fan of the new style. “It doesn’t have the ‘wow’ factor the big one did,” she commented. Member Greg Roberson said he was disappointed in the design and described the scale of the project and the look as residential. He pointed to the hip roof over the entry of the rectangular building and said that gives it a residential feel. Roberson asked that the roof form be changed. “In my opinion, a dated

Money shouldn’t influence a person, said Cardona. The suggested donation for lunch is $4 but people unable to pay don’t have to, said Cardona. “We will not turn you away. This is not charity. They worked for it.” Meal donations go in a

red box as people sign in, he said. “The box is hidden, so nobody knows what people put in or don’t put in.” Others in the community are welcome. Meals cost non-seniors $6, and one has to be at least age 18 to play bingo. The center also serves as a clearinghouse for information. “If I don’t have it, I’ll find it,” said Cardona.

Warner agreed that the building was almost on a residential scale and said they didn’t want to give it a prominent entry. Shanahan and Warner talked about the possibility of expanding one day either by adding to the building or putting in additional buildings at the site. Design review member Dan Vengler said he is concerned that, if the economy gets worse, PPH could sell one or both of the vacant

We always had urgent care and that’s what we’re providing.” The design review board also reviewed landscape plans, presented by John O’Malley with Weiland and Associates, and requested some changes. The board tabled approval and asked the architects to bring revised site plans to the design review board’s next meeting, scheduled for Nov. 17. Although the plans for

In other business, the design review board voted in a new member for its remaining open seat. Jim Cooper, a builder and a former member of the design review board, received the most votes for the seat. County supervisors must approve Cooper’s appointment. Also expressing an interest in the board position was Nicole Ward, a Realtor and past president of the Ramona Real Estate Association, who attended the meeting. Roberson said Carol Fowler, a Realtor and member of the Ramona Village Design Group, was also interested but could not make the meeting.

Ramona Lutheran School attracts experienced teachers By BILL TAMBURRINO

amona Lutheran School may be the smallest preschool to eighth grade school in Ramona, but it is a part of the largest Protestant single denomination school system in the United States, which has 1,406 elementary schools, 976 early childhood centers and 103 high schools. “It is important that people understand that we have resources beyond our own little operation and that we are not a Lone Ranger trying to run a school on our own,” said Pastor David Keil. Ramona Lutheran School has close to 60 students on its campus on 16th Street with 17 teachers. It charges tuition, and its teachers range from new to the school this year to a veteran who has been there for over 20 years. Those new this year are not exactly rookies. Frank Lucio, Gene Doxey and Donna Meyers, recently retired from the Ramona Unified School Dis-

trict, have over 100 years of teaching experience among them. Meyers is the school’s principal. Math teacher Micky Soul, new to the faculty, is in a master’s program in mathematics and has several years of teaching experience. She replaced Ed Spaeth, Ph.D, who is now doing the school’s grant writing. Ramona Lutheran School has 180 days of instruction a year and its calendar is close to that of the Ramona public school district. Why would a retired teacher continue to teach? “This is a different environment,” said Lucio. “The classes are very small and I get to do much more individualized instruction. I teach classes that are two hours long, two hours a week. I actually teach from some of the same textbooks used in the public schools. Yes, I am working but I still feel retired. It’s a good feeling.” “It is a different personality and balance than public schools,” added

Spaeth. “We don’t have to be politically correct. We can mention that we believe in God. It gives the community an option.” Meyers explained that Ramona Lutheran School does not have to teach to pass state- and other government-mandated tests. “We give the Iowa Test of Basic Skills to give us a direction to see what the students need and what we should emphasize,” she said. “We want to build skills in academics, athletics, music, arts and develop well-rounded students.” “We don’t have to pressure our preschool and kindergarten for reading readiness,” said preschool teacher Deb Abeel. “Some kids are ready to read at age 5 and some are not. We work with each student differently because we have smaller class sizes.” In addition to its wellrounded curriculum, Ramona Lutheran offers plenty of extracurricular activities, the teachers said. Among them are: a

hands-on garden, sports, Scout programs, drama, music, choir, an afterschool homework club and a variety of field trips. The school has laptop computers, a computer lab and a full library. Hot lunches are served, and morning and afternoon extended care is also available.

“We are a Lutheran school, but all of the teachers and students are not Lutheran,” said Meyers. “I have never felt pressure to teach or not to teach an issue,” said Doxey. “We do have character education and teach morals and values. We can deal with more real-life issues and talk about topics

that are taboo in the public schools.” “I have the academic freedom to teach science as I did in the public schools,” said Lucio. “In social studies, I am not tied to the political agenda on what I can teach today. I am also not restricted from See SCHOOL on page 5

Middle school’s CoRE band wraps up season’s performances The 12 members of an elite Olive Peirce Middle School band will be wrapping up their fall schedule on Nov. 18 by practicing with an Orange County junior high band and visiting Disneyland. The OPMS students form a performing group dubbed CoRE, an acronym for Community Outreach Ensemble. CoRE was formed in March under the direction of elementary and middle school band director Karl Lampe. The ensemble was created to offer the 12 students the chance to play advanced music and perform. CoRE’s busy schedule this fall included performing ﬁve concerts during the second week of October to promote the elementary school band program. “It was almost like going on tour. The members really have to love performing to be willing to do it so often,” said Lampe. “Band for the majority of middle school kids is a lot about socializing. The kids in CoRE want that too, but they are crazy about getting up in front of an audience.” The group’s schedule also included a Nov. 8 tour of San Diego State University and playing with the SDSU symphonic band. The CoRE group is voluntary and draws its members from students who participate in the advanced band at OPMS. The students practiced during the summer and two nights during the school year, along with playing in the school’s jazz band. The CoRE band instrumentation consists of four ﬂutes, two soprano clarinets, one tenor saxophone, one trumpet, one trombone, one tuba, one bas

I DON’T KNOW

Ask Karen! My teenager is driving me crazy! He seems to forget how to do his chores, even the simple ones like taking out the garbage. How many times do I have to tell him to take it out? I am frustrated and want to quit yelling at him to do his chores.

I hear your irritation! It can be extremely frustrating for parents to continue to remind their kids to do their chores. During the teenage years, teenagers are metamorphasizing (as I call it). They have so much going on in their bodies and heads at this stage of development. With the computer, cellphone and television, they are inundated with information overload. Add to it friends, sports, family obligations and other commitments, it is no wonder why they are so forgetful. Ask yourself how many chores he is doing in relation to his other activities. Remember, the goal is to teach responsibility, and overwhelming him misses the goal. However, there a couple of tricks to get help him to remember. First of all yelling and getting more frustrated with him just overloads him and he tunes you out. So, remember to remain calm. Ask for a meeting with him when you are both in a place to listen. Let him know that it is frustrating for you to have to remind to do his chores and you would like to solve this problem where he is helping and you are not yelling. When you engage kids in the negotiation process, they are more likely to remember and stick to their chores. Ask him if he has any suggestions on how he can remember. Most kids are very creative and think outside the box. Some of his ideas might include hanging up a poster listing the chores, changing the time and days that chores are done, changing chores, having less chores or even being paid for some chores. The idea is that he feels successful at accomplishing chores and you don’t have to yell for him to accomplish the goal. Be open to negotiating, as this is a life skill that teenagers need to attain for their adult life. Enjoy the process of doing this exercise and take pride in knowing you are teaching one more life skill.

OPINION

Guest Editorial

‘As free as the wind...’ By ROBERT MORRISON

t seems the term “Tall Ship” must have come from John Masefield’s poem, “Sea Fever.” My sea-faring dad quoted that poem to me a hundred times, but he never sailed in a Tall Ship. Still, as a seafarer, he too felt the romance that whistled with the wind in the rigging. “I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky / And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by / And the wheel’s kick and the wind’s song and the white sail’s shaking / And a grey mist on the sea’s face, and a grey dawn breaking.” We crossed the brow of the U.S. Coast Guard Barque Eagle. She was tied up on the pier, in Baltimore‘s Inner Harbor last month. My wife, a retired Navy captain, and her cousin, a nuclear submarine officer of 30 years, accompanied me as we toured this 1936 vessel. I was surprised to see a photo of a buoyant Harry Truman, his hat back on his head like a cowboy’s, as he manned the helm of this captured German sail training ship in 1946. He had the year before announced V-E Day in Europe, his own 61st birthday. For nautical FDR to be shown steering a sailing vessel would not have been a surprise. But for mule-driving Harry, the Missouri National Guard artillery captain of World War I, it was unexpected. The last time I visited the Eagle, she was all torn apart in the Coast Guard Yard at Curtis Bay, Md. Several years ago, Capt. Phil Sullivan took me through the ship as she was undergoing a major overhaul. I saw the boilerplate in the engine room (yes, great sailing ships still have engines). It indicated the vessel was really a Wessel. Her original name was Horst Wessel. That was the name of a Nazi thug and brawler who was killed in a street fight. The Nazi’s anthem was “The Horst Wessel Song” and, if you’ve seen Cabaret or any one of hundreds of programs on the Hitler Channel, you’ve heard it. A bad man. A bad beginning. The Eagle was originally built in the Blom and Voss Shipyard in Hamburg. Phil Sullivan told me she was built in just 100 days, by shipyard workers working triple shifts around the clock. That was 1936. The Eagle was seized by the U.S. in 1946, as See GUEST EDITORIAL on page 9

Education and technology in complex world By JOHN RAJCIC The importance of education in our complex, interdependent and competitive global village can not be overemphasized. Funds to support education will continue to decrease as the needs of the school increase. It is difficult for many to support a system where the highest paid teacher is a marginal teacher making more than twice the salary of a badly needed sharp-enthusiastic-great-math teacher that is dismissed. This is one of many public concerns that the teaching profession should confront openly and honestly. Our educational system is obviously labor intensive. Labor intense industries have historically and slowly accepted automation and more effective ways of doing things. It is a question of those in power protecting

Guest Commentary the status quo. The Brotherhood of Railroad Workers kept the caboose tailing behind for many years after its usefulness disappeared. The railroads saw themselves in the railroad business rather than the transportation business. This economic drag on the railroads did harm to railroads by losing business to other forms of transportation. To some extent I see the teaching profession as being concerned more with “teaching” than student learning. In many instances technology continues to rapidly bring about more effective and efficient student “learning” than a teacher with 30 kids in a “box.” There is a fear, and probably rightly so, that the computer is usurping much of the historic role of

the teacher and even a book as an information provider. This fear is noted when it is said that a computer only supplements the role of the teacher. I would go much further and say that in some instances it can supplant the role of the teacher. School administrators are risk adverse and their positions to a large extent are predicated on the support of teacher organizations. This being so, automation of the classroom will be slow in coming. Teacher organizations will also continue to be primarily concerned with teacher welfare, as such organizations are, regardless of the profession. However, as the public becomes dissatisfied and more involved, resource shortages of neces-

sity will bring about changes. This statement is hard for many in the teaching profession to accept, much like the ditch digger with shovel in hand reluctantly losing his job to automation. Having a job remains a number one concern of the individual, as I believe it should be. Another case in point. This not to challenge the historic role of the librarian, but lately I have not come across students who did not research and complete their term papers “online.” Technology is having a comparable impact upon the classroom teacher. A student has a question or problem that many times can be readily resolved on their own. Teaching the use of technology in itself is becoming a function of technology. The teaching profession is not unique in this regard. Most human endeavors are experiencing the impact technology is having on the status quo. The only thing we know about the future is that it will be different. All this said, regardless of curriculum and/or school organization, the one constant that makes a difference is a great teacher. John Rajcic is a Ramona resident.

OPINION

Ramona Sentinel Bringing pension costs down to a sane level

This letter was sent to the Ramona Municipal Water District Board of Directors. Re: Retirement Benefits for RMWD Officers and other Employees In a recent publication of the Ramona Sentinel, I had learned of the general manager recently retiring early (at age 58) and receiving a retirement pension of approximately $173,000 per year. At first I thought it was a misprint — but I have learned the figure is pretty close. There being approximately 9,500 water meters that RMWD bills every other month, that comes to $3.04 that every RMWD customer has to pay each bill for just one retired RMWD employee. If one added up all the retirement pensions RMWD is currently paying out and ultimately being paid by RMWD customers, I shudder to think of the final amount. The purpose of this letter is not to dispute what the former general manager will be getting for his pension, nor is this letter about present and past pension obligations RMWD has legally committed themselves to. I realize that past and current pension obligations were probably included in one contract or another and what’s done is done; it will take years 

to get RMWD to get their pension obligation/expenditure in line with private industry. But I do believe it’s time RMWD “decision makers” come down to earth and face reality. The City of San Diego, the State of California and many, many more public and semipublic entities are realizing they have to change their “normal business” routine and start running their entity like a business and not running it like they can simply print money. After all, it’s us Ramona water users who are ultimately paying the bills. I look forward to future Ramona Sentinel articles on how RMWD Board of Directors will mirror other cities, states, etc. on bringing pension costs down to a sane level. Joe Minervini Ramona

Chamber thanks all for participation in Merchants Trick or Treat

I just wanted to give a brief thank you to all our members and the community who participated in our Merchants Trick or Treat down Main Street on Halloween. This event has grown year after year and we cannot thank everyone enough for the great participation our business district exhibits.

On board, we were greeted by another surprise — not Coast Guard Academy cadets, but ofﬁcer candidates from the Coast Guard’s OCS program. When I went through OCS, we never got to sail on the Eagle. Our ﬁrst guide met us on the forecastle. He was gunner’s mate, enlisted, before he went to OCS. He talked about his wife and two children, with one on way. How hard it was to say to his four-year old daughter that Daddy isn’t coming home tonight. His 2-year-old son really cannot understand. This OCS class is slated to graduate Dec. 7, 2011, the 70th anniversary of Pearl Harbor, and our young OC was fully aware that it is “a date that

nity and businesses could come together in such a way. I even spoke to people who heard about our event down in Poway and Lakeside and decided to come check it out. This is a prime example of what I believe makes our community better than any other. Our small town camaraderie cannot be matched by any big city. Again, on behalf of the Board of Directors and our entire Chamber staff, we thank everyone for their participation. Jason DeLeo President Ramona Chamber of Commerce Board

Sign petition against Cumming Ranch

Imagine 125 tract houses being built on both sides of Highland Valley Road where it intersects with Highway 67 — positioned to block our view of Ramona’s grasslands and that “big sky” feeling one gets when coming into the Santa Maria Valley. Our community’s rural character is rooted in one’s ability to connect with wide-open rural beauty, in all directions. Chipping away at what makes this place different from most of Southern California, we have to remember that it is up to us to preserve what we love. The raptor perch hill on the east side of Highland Valley Road will become

the site of several prize tract homes, offering a view above and beyond their neighbors’ rooftops. Gone will be the pair of golden eagles often seen foraging off the edge of the Engelmann Oak grove, which will be cut to facilitate easier grading and building. Worse than what could be lost will be what is brought into our valley if this project is approved. Traffic engineers have predicted that the Cumming Ranch development will increase the traffic by an estimated minimum of 1,500 average daily trips. Dark skies will be filled with stray lighting where there is none now. More traffic on Archie Moore Road and Highway 67 will probably require installation of a traffic signal at that intersection. Increased rationing of water during periods of drought. Increased sewage treatment needs will further tax our town’s already oversubscribed system. If what we are losing is dear to us, and what we are gaining is pain, shouldn’t we be working to stop this project? There is still time to act because the Board of Supervisors must vote on this development to allow one house per acre of land. This is twice the density allowed by the county’s 2020 General Plan which

will live in infamy.” He told us all about the devastating loss of the USCGC Cuyahoga in 1978. He knows the whole story. I knew people who were on that 1922 vessel when it was cut in half by an oil tanker in Chesapeake Bay. The Coast Guard lost 26 ﬁne members that terrible night. We moved aft. A pert young lady OC took up the duty of telling us the story of the Eagle’s travels. She has never lived with her Marine husband, she said. She hopes to be stationed in San Diego, near Camp Pendleton. Detailers are the ones responsible for assignments. They told this young woman that, if she and her husband are stationed within 200 miles of one another, they can count themselves lucky. Not surprisingly, she said, her Marine husband is planning to get out. We ask so much of these young people. On this Veterans Day, we pay tribute to all those who served,

not just those who make the ultimate sacriﬁce of their lives. I cannot help but be thrilled by the pride, intelligence and devotion to duty these young people exhibit. There was another unexpected meeting on the deck of the Eagle. I read previously unknown words from a great friend. He had saluted Eagle and all the tall ships in 1986: “These vessels embody our conception of liberty itself; to have no impediments, only open spaces to chart one’s own course, to take adventure as it comes, to be as free as the wind, as free as the tall ships themselves.” Eloquent, grand and true. Those words by Ronald Reagan speak to my heart — and to the country we love this Veterans Day. Robert Morrison, a Coast Guard veteran, is senior fellow at the Family Research Council.

Bazaar raises $5,500 for outreach projects

Ramona Grasslands, ‘little world that works’

Ramona is protecting the last large and intact California grassland. Shouldn’t this entitle Ramona to exemptions from some of the pesky, costly, time-consuming reports and studies that block progress in our town? A grassland, with its endangered animals and vernal pools, is a little world that works, with no help from people. But it does need protection because, to quote the late celebrated Ramona author Judy Van der Veer, “Eighty percent of the city people should not be allowed outside the city limits. They get out in the country and try to make everything like the city.” The Nature Conservancy helped establish the Ramona Grassland Preserve as part of its goal. It is striving to “protect at least 10 percent of every habitat type on Earth by 2015.” This would ensure that these areas would still be available See LETTERS on page 10

when human tenchology finally develops the ability to unlock their secrets. Who wouldn’t like to know more about miniscule vernal pool creatures that seem to age backwards, or grass that appears amphibious? Ramona’s habitat type is found in only five places on Earth — California, South Africa, southern Australia, Chile and the basin of the Mediterra-

nean Sea. The small swaths of coastline represent only 2.2 percent of the land but are home to 20 percent of the known vascular plants on Earth. The Ramona Grassland is proof that an obligation to the future is understood and will be honored. But the needs are now, aren’t they? Edalee Orcutt Harwell Ramona

Thanks for successful Buddy Poppy Campaign

To: Citizens of Ramona and Country Estates From: Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3783 and its Ladies and Men’s auxiliaries Subject: Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 3783 Buddy Poppy Campaign for Veterans Day, Nov. 11 Once, again, the people of Ramona and Country Estates stepped up to the plate and made our Buddy Poppy Campaign this past

Although the weather was cold and rainy, you citizens were awesome in the support of the VFW’s programs for our veterans. Our thanks also go to the Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps from the high school that aided our campaign. They looked sharp and their demeanor is a reflection on the program at the

high school. If you see any of the young ladies and men, extend them thanks for a job well done. Since Friday, Nov. 11, is Veterans Day, make an effort to extend a thank you to any and all veterans you may encounter. Make it an effort all year. Don’t forget our female members.

Military housing

From page 1

the planners at their Nov. 3 meeting that number was not definite. Because the project is in its conceptual phase with the county, the planning group was unable to vote on it. Santa said he will bring back a site plan for the planners’ review and vote at a later date. Santa said he developed the affordable housing idea for military and veterans from his years of living in Ramona. “My best renters over the years have been military g

renters,” he said. “They’re very good people.” KirE Companies, headquartered in Poway, is working on the project with Chelsea Investment Corporation in Carlsbad and Pacific Southwest, an affordable housing management association. Erin Montgomery from Chelsea said they develop, construct and manage affordable housing and have projects in Santee and Lakeside. She said Chelsea is applying for funding through San Diego County Depart-

“The purpose of the (extension) is to give the forest service time to design and implement a management plan to address issues of public safety, overcrowding and resource impacts,” said Brian Harris of the U.S. Forest Service. Visitors have been kept out of the remote spot since July 9, three days after 16-year-old Joseph Meram of El Cajon slipped off a trail alongside an 80foot-high rocky precipice over a pool known as the Devil’s Punchbowl.

The teen struck his head on boulders before landing in the pool and was pronounced dead while being airlifted out of the area. The secluded spot east of Ramona, popular with sightseers and those who enjoy leaping from sheer bluffs into the sometimes shallow swimming hole, had been a worsening problem for public-safety personnel. Increasing numbers of visitors were getting hurt there or becoming strand-

ment of Housing and Community Development, which has up to $1 million available. Representing Pacific Southwest, Robert Lansing said the management firm would provide a number of services “to empower residents…to improve their life skills.” Such services could include computer labs on the property, after-school tutoring, arts and crafts classes, soccer, financial education classes and health screenings, he said.

Planner Richard Tomlinson cautioned about drainage in that area of 16th Street. “Be very careful about that,” he said. “There’s a lot of flooding issues.” Tomlinson asked if the property had any environmental issues. Santa said there is a vernal pool and he is working on a mitigation proposal to take to the county for approval. When Santa said an architectural style had not yet been determined, planner Torry Brean told him that design standards are being

ed without enough water or proper footwear for the challenging terrain, authorities said. Last Fourth of July weekend, emergency crews had to transport 10 or more injured, dehydrated or heat-exhausted people out of the area, Cal Fire Capt. Mike Mohler said. The closed area includes a trailhead at Thornbush Road in San Diego Country Estates, the trail from there to Cedar Creek Falls, a trailhead area at Saddleback on Eagle Peak Road,

the trail from Saddleback and the Cedar Creek Falls site itself. The off-limits area extends for a quarter-mile on both sides of the trails and the falls. After drafting the management plan, the forest service will conduct an analysis of it under the National Environmental Policy Act prior to finalizing and implementing it, according to Harris. “A decision on whether or not a permit would be required to hike the (area) in the future will not be made until the conclusion of the NEPA process,” Harris said. “The permitting-system course of action is one that will be studied, while other alternatives will be studied as well.’’

created for Ramona and suggested he look at ProjectRamona.com for examples of architecture that will fit in with Ramona’s character. Planner Angus Tobiason said he was in favor of housing for active military and veterans. “These people have put their neck on the line...If we have to have low-cost housing, I’m very much in favor veterans get a chance,” he said. Chair Jim Piva applauded the tilt toward the military. “This would go towards what I think complements Ramona,” he said. RCPG Secretary Kristi Mansolf said she would give the draft minutes with the planners’ comments to the developers to take to the county. In other business: •Planners approved the expansion of a rabbit research business on San Vicente Road, near Bunnie King Lane. Ramona architect Bruce Steingraber explained that ProSci Inc. is involved in using serum from rabbits for its research for HIV and cancer. The rabbits are injected and the serum is removed and injected into people, he said. “They need more rabbits to do research,” Steingraber said. The expansion to raise more rabbits would increase the building area of 3,800 square feet to 28,800 square

feet with the addition of metal rabbit coops and maintenance buildings. Steingraber said it will not be visible from San Vicente Road. No lab work is done at the site; rabbits are shipped to a lab in Poway. Steingraber said the county is requiring an administrative permit and may request an archeological study. •Piva gave a report on the planning group’s Oct. 20 Flood workshop, saying it was informative but it will be very difficult for Ramonans to get flooding issues fixed, especially with only $500,000 from the county earmarked for Ramona. “When you hear the nuts and bolts of it…it is such a mess, a bureaucratic nightmare,” said Piva. He added that the county’s hands are tied when it comes to environmental agencies such as the Army Corps of Engineers and California Fish and Game. “On top of that, there’s no money,” said Piva. “I feel sorry for those folks in our community. There’s really not much we can do.” Mansolf said County Supervisor Dianne Jacob thinks there is an opportunity to move Kelly Street higher up the county’s flood control priority list. Kelly Street, which experiences flooding, is listed as number 42. •Mansolf gave an update on the emergency evacuation route for Ramona. The next step is a memorandum of understanding among all agencies involved, she said. •Planner Matt Deskovick expressed concerns about more Ramona land being set aside for open space. Deskovick said Ramona is losing its farmland. Piva said the topic will be added to the Dec. 1 meeting agenda.

Paying for college without spending your life savings

Rancho Bernardo woman teaches free workshops to help parents save thousands Rancho Bernardo woman teaches free workshops to help parents save thou sands Rancho Bernardo---Parents that are planning on sending a child to college in the next few years, but aren’t quite sure how to pay for it can now rest a little easier. Michelle Mai of College Planning Source has been educating parents in the community for over 7 years about what to do if they haven’t saved enough for college. It’s really sad, but most parents that we talk to have done real well financially, but never found the time to save for college, and now they’re

facing a bill of $20,000-$58,000 a year, and they don’t know who to turn to,’ she says. Parents will have two opportunities to hear Michelle speak in November. She is teaching her class ‘How to Maximize Your Student’s Future Financial Aid Award While Minimizing Your Family’s Outof-Pocket Costs!’ on Tuesday, November 15th (6:30pm-7:45pm) at the Tierrasanta Library and again Saturday, November 19th (10:30am11:45am) at the Carmel Valley Library. The workshop will focus on littleknown ways of getting money for ADVERTISEMENT

college, no matter how much income you make, or how good of a student you have. The class will include such topics as how to double or triple your eligibility for free grant money, the secret to sending your child to a private or UC school for less than the cost of a Cal State school, and the single biggest mistake that 9 out of 10 parents make when planning for college. ‘Don’t forget: the class is free, but seats are limited, and we’ve had to turn away people in previous months.’ You can reserve a seat by calling (858) 676-0700 or online at www. collegeplanningsource.com

On the Agenda

Improve Your Financial Picture During Open Enrollment

ate fall marks the beginning of the holiday season, which probably means that you’ll have a lot going on over the next couple of months. However, busy as you are, you’ll want to take the time to review your employee benefits package, since November also is a popular month for employers to offer open enrollment. And the decisions you make now could have a big impact on your financial outlook for years to come. So, if you are in an open enrollment period, here are some steps you may want to take: •Boost your 401(k) contributions. It’s almost always a good idea to put in as much as you can, up to the contribution limit, in your 401(k) or similar retirement plan. After all, you typically contribute pre-tax dollars, so the more you put in, the lower your taxable income. Also, your money can grow on a tax-deferred basis, which means it has the potential to grow faster than an investment for which you paid taxes every year. At the very least, contribute enough to earn your employer’s match, if one is offered. For example, if you work for an organization that will match 50 percent of everything you put in up to, say, 6 percent of your salary, then you should contribute 6 percent of your salary — which is like getting a 3 percent raise. •Rebalance your 401(k) portfolio. You may have a dozen or more investment options in your 401(k). Ideally, you’ll want to spread your money among these options in a way that’s appropriate for your risk tolerance, time horizon and longterm goals. But over time, your 401(k) portfolio can become “un-

balanced,” even if you made no changes. For example, if you’ve invested in a couple of aggressive-growth accounts, and these accounts have gained significantly in value, they may now be taking up a greater percentage of your portfolio than you had originally intended, exposing you to more risk than you’d like. Consequently, if your plan doesn’t offer an automatic rebalance option, you may need to rebalance your portfolio by moving some of your assets into less aggressive vehicles. •Be cautious about adding company stock. You may be loyal to your employer, but try not to hold too much company stock in your 401(k). After all, your company, like all businesses, may go through ups and downs, and if your portfolio is dominated by this single stock, you may experience considerable volatility. And if your company matches your 401(k) contributions with its own stock, you may want to invest all your own money in vehicles other than company stock.

•Take all the insurance that’s offered. Typically, when employers offer life insurance as a benefit, it’s at little or no cost to you, so you’ll probably want to take all that’s offered. However, this amount may still be less than what you really need to fully protect your family, so you may well need to purchase an individual policy to supplement your employer’s coverage. And always be aware if your employer reduces or eliminates the insurance that’s offered as an employee benefit, because you’ll then need to adjust the policy that you’ve bought outside work. •You can review and improve your financial picture during open enrollment — so take advantage of this opportunity.

By ROSE MARIE SCOTT-BLAIR When the National Weather Service issued a red flag warning last Tuesday because of anticipated high winds and dry conditions for the next day, San Diego Gas & Electric put its fire emergency procedures into operation. The first step, which began at 6 p.m. on Nov. 1, was to call customers in wind-prone areas to alert them about the red flag warning and the possibility that the conditions could cause power outages, said SDG&E spokesman Stephanie Donovan. Using its automated message system, the utility contacted 11,500 customers in backcountry

areas of Ramona, Julian, Wynola, Santa Ysabel, Buckman Springs, Potrero and Descanso. “We wanted them to be prepared for possible power outages as a result of the weather or the possibility that SDG&E might have to turn off power for public safety, depending on the weather conditions,” Donovan said. The utility also opened its emergency operations center so that it could closely monitor weather conditions, using the 130 weather stations that it has installed in high fire risk areas in the past four years. “We used to have only one weather station per circuit,

and now some circuits have as many as five, so we can try to pinpoint the potential impact of weather on our system,” Donovan said. “We also began staging crews in wind-prone areas to hasten response time.” A typical crew is four SDG&E troubleshooters and two or three firefighters, who are part of a contract wildfire strike team hired by the utility. “SDG&E had about 90 people staged in the areas where the highest winds were forecast,” Donovan said. “This included our distribution crews, contract firefighters, transmission construction and maintenance crews, and even Telecomm personnel.” The staging of observers turned out to be “invaluable,” she said. “Specifically, an electric troubleshooter out of SDG&E’s construction and operations center in Escondido followed fire trucks onto Tribal Road within the Rincon Reservation to find poles and wire down with a half-acre fire. It was determined the line was a 2.4 kilovolt customer-owned equipment,” Donovan said. “Another troubleshooter patrolling a line came across a leaning pole with secondary wire in the Rincon area, and was able to call it in and get it fixed. Finally, one of SDG&E’s weather stations in the Santa Ysabel area stopped updating in the middle of the event, so one of the stand-by crews was sent to troubleshoot the issue and soon had the weather station back on line communicating via cellular modem.” During the high winds on Wednesday, Nov. 2, the SDG&E distribution system had a total of seven outages, affecting 5,500 customers, Donovan said. Of these, only three were wind-related, impacting about 1,225 customers. SDG&E also contacted all its “medical baseline” customers who depend on electrically operated life-support equipment. “We were mobilized and ready to go out in person to make sure of the welfare of our customers,” Donovan said. “Fortunately, the winds were not as strong as forecast, and we didn’t have to knock on any doors.”

Remains of Korean War prisoner of war come home

olding U.S. flags and standing along Main Street on a crisp Saturday morning, area residents ranging from children to senior citizens waited for the procession that would carry the remains of Cpl. Eugene “Mackie” Morelli from Bonham Brothers & Stewart Mortuary on 12th Street to his burial place in the Bloomdale/Mesa Chiquita Cemetery on the Mesa Grande Indian Reservation. They waited for up to three and a half hours. Some arrived early, about 8 a.m. on Nov. 5. Others were there at the designated time of 8:30 a.m. Due to the late arrival of a family member, the funeral procession did not make its way up Ramona’s Main Street toward Santa Ysabel until just before 10:30 a.m. It gave those who waited time to talk g

and to think of Cpl. Morelli and of others who have or are serving the country. Morelli, whose obituary was published in the Oct. 27 issue of the Ramona Sentinel, was born on the Mesa Grande Indian Reservation to Max Morelli and Edith Ponchetti on Aug. 22, 1929. He died a prisoner of war in North Korea in 1951 and was buried there. Morelli was listed as missing in action after a battle with Chinese soldiers on Feb. 13, 1951, near Hoengson, Republic of Korea, said Laura Herzog of the “Honoring Our Fallen” organization. He was attached to the 15th Field Artillery Battalion, 2nd Infantry Division. In 1953, after the war’s conclusion and the exchange of prisoners of war, a returned U.S. soldier reported that Morelli had died in captivity due

I copied and posted the request on Facebook, and my wife and other friends also posted it. Some of the local news and radio stations also mentioned it. After the heavy rain on Friday, we had a cool Saturday morning and I wanted to get on Main Street early so I didn’t miss anything. At 7:55 a.m., I parked next to Packards at Seventh and Main and I made it a point to get a good spot right in front of a flagpole and then I proceeded to wait and watch. At 8:15, I was still waiting. I didn’t see anyone else standing by the curbs, only me. Finally, around 8:20, people start slowly trickling in on both sides of the street. As I looked down the block for the start of the procession, I could see groups of people by the curbs and some people honked their horns as they drove by.

At about 8:50 a.m. there was a highway patrol car parked by the corner and we were still waiting and talking. All of a sudden, a box truck drove past with a picture of a flag and a statement about honoring our fallen heroes on its side. I thought “Oh, we missed it!” A few seconds later, I figured out that that wasn’t it. Still waiting about 9:30 a.m., we see yellow lights blinking down the road coming toward us, so we call out “This is it! Get ready everyone!” The vehicles get closer and there is a brief moment of silence and wonder, until we realize that we are looking at a tow truck carrying a car—fooled again! Around 10 a.m., people are starting to leave and word comes out that a family member was late and the procession will be passing soon. All of a sudden, a block away, we notice a car being pushed out of the center of the road and a few seconds later a police car goes to that intersection with its lights on and for a moment we think they are fi-

to malnutrition, reported the Department of Defense POW/Missing Personnel Office. Between 1991 and 1994, North Korea gave the United States 208 boxes of remains believed to contain the remains of 200 to 400 U.S. servicemen, and documents indicated that some of the remains were recovered near where Morelli was held as a prisoner of war, according to the Department of Defense. Scientists from the Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory used dental records and mitochondrial DNA that matched that of Morelli’s niece in the identification, the department reported.

A community lunch in Mesa Grande Tribal Hall was held after the service. nally coming, but then we realize this is just another false alarm. At 10:25 a.m., we have almost given up and then the procession finally arrives. The police cars cleared the traffic and those of us who remained, lined up along the curb, put our right hands over our hearts and stood respectfully while the procession drove by. I could see a woman in one of the first cars crying as she looked at us while being driven past the crowd. There were some family members following and videotaping us while they were riding in the procession. Cars and many motorcycles followed and for a few moments I felt as one with all those who were honoring Cpl. Morelli. In the difficult political times we are experiencing in our great country, it is nice to see this display of honor and respect that we feel for those who are willing to do what our country asks of them at the risk of paying the ultimate price. May God bless them all!

Unraveling details of a Navy jet crash on Jan. 17, 1961 Editor’s note: A Ramona couple on Veterans Day 2010 placed a plaque on the site of a Navy jet crash that had occurred in 1961. In this article, S. Elaine Lyttleton tells the story of how she and Norm Case, owners of the property on which the jet crashed, unraveled the story of the crash after finding remnants of the wreckage on their property in 2006. By S. ELAINE LYTTLETON

e wasn’t even supposed to fly that day. The flight instructor who was scheduled to conduct a training exercise in the Grumman F9F-8T “Cougar” on Jan. 17, 1961, had a family emergency so Navy LCDR Vernon Thompson was called in to take his place. Something went seriously wrong, and Thompson and his student were both killed when the aircraft slammed in to the ground at Latitude 33 degrees, 2.6 minutes North, Longitude 116 degrees, 49.7 minutes West in Ramona. When the crash site property changed hands in 2006, the new owners began clearing and tilling the field in preparation for the planting of their wine grape vineyard. Norm Case, one of the property owners and a pilot and airplane owner himself, began finding parts and pieces of the aircraft. He recognized them as being from a military plane, but could find no information locally on why they were there. He eventually found one neighbor who had lived in the area for decades, who mentioned a Navy jet crash in the late 1950s or early ‘60s. Being busy with the new vineyard project, no other investigations were done until after October 2007. The Witch Creek Fire blew right through the crash debris area and, during the subsequent cleanup, a new and touching piece of history was revealed — the pilot’s dog tag. A visit to the San Diego Archeological Society in San Pasqual Valley and research by an experienced staffer led to a connection to the Navy. The government keeps track of all ships,

planes and personnel that have ever been lost. The Navy’s Stricken Aircraft Program manager in Philadelphia contacted the property owners and the Navy began its investigations of the incident, including efforts to locate any next of kin of the downed pilot, Vernon Thompson, whose dog tag had been found. The majority of the plane was recovered immediately after the crash, but the body of the pilot was never recovered. The discovery of the dog tag prompted the further investigations. The Navy’s original accident report documenting the crash states that the 36-year-old pilot flight instructor, LCDR Vernon Thompson, “was an exceptionally conscientious aviator with a fervent desire to preserve his unit’s safety record.” The report went on to state, “He was cautious to the point of being too cautious and any experiment with a student in the rear seat would have been entirely ‘out of character.’” The F9F-8T took off from NAS Miramar at about 0935U (9:30 a.m.) that day on a simulated, round robin training flight back to Miramar via Tacan (tactical air navigation) route direct to March AFB, Norton, Long Beach and Oceanside, where a simulated CCA (carrier control approach) was to be made, and thence to Miramar. At about 1030U the aircraft was observed by Ramona residents, just south of the town at low altitude and moderate airspeed, heading in a northeasterly direction. It continued east for about 2½ miles in a slight right turn and then pitched into a steep dive and crashed into the rocky terrain. Explosion occurred on impact. While Thompson crashed with his aircraft and his body was never recovered, his co-pilot, 23-year-old Ensign Dennis F. Cubbison, ejected from the rear seat just before the crash. He was fatally injured, however, when his parachute failed to open. The accident report elaborates, “The aircraft hit the ground in an uncontrolled condition at the base of a flat ‘house sized’ boulder.” The impact forces, combined with ricochet and explosion

of 3,000 pounds of JP-4 fuel, totally destroyed the aircraft. Fragments were found more than 350 yards a w a y , and grass fires were started throughout the area and were contained by state forestry firefighters. A Grumman field representative and a Naval Aviation Safety Center investigator noted that the destruction was so complete that, of the many instruments in the aircraft, only two could be identified. The canyon itself made the recovery of parts difficult due to the many holes and crevices down through the boulders. The current owners of the crash site property collected more than 350 small pieces of the craft that included door hinges, shell casings, pieces of the canopy plexiglass, seat belt buckles, an hydraulics servo unit, an alternator nomenclature plate, and the largest items, which were the two wing tips. All these were turned over to the Navy in April of 2009, along with the dog tag, though pieces of debris are still being collected on a regular basis by the vineyard owners’ grandchildren. Witnesses from the Ramona area were interviewed at the scene of the crash and as far back along the flight path as investigators considered practicable. These witnesses included a group of high school students, a woman watering her lawn, and a retired paratrooper who offered some well qualified testimony. The accident report stated it was notewor-

thy that many of the available witnesses with a commanding view of the aircraft’s flight path did not see or hear anything prior to a point 2½ miles from the crash scene. The Navy sent a team to the site in July of 2009 to conduct an archaeological evaluation of the crash site. No other parts of any significance were recovered nor any human remains. In the final analysis, the exact cause of the accident has remained undetermined. However the accident history of the F9F flying tail series is replete with accidents involving the longitudinal control system. The report states, “Of poor basic design, it contains several pilot traps in case of malfunction.” The vineyard owners had a plaque made that was placed at the crash site and dedicated in a ceremony on Veterans Day, Nov. 11, 2010, at 11 a.m. Members of the American Legion Post in Ramona participated in the dedication ceremony. Since then, through a blog on the Internet, the owners found Thompson’s daughter, Karen Rogers of Vancouver, Wash. She was 7 years old when her father was killed. She will be in Ramona on Nov. 30 to visit the crash site and to get her father’s dog tag.

Olive Peirce Middle School students receive teacher nominations twice a year for recognition as outstanding students. Twelve eighth-graders were recognized as Students of the Month in a luncheon ceremony in the school library on Friday. An additional two students received All Star awards for their work in the afterschool TEENS program. Vice Principal Robin Arend said the awards are an honor, particularly because each student has in some way stood apart from the crowd. “It is about being over and above excellent,” said Arend. Parents and other supporters attended the event to help celebrate the success of each student.

Assemblyman calls for state politics to change By KAREN BRAINARD

tate Assemblyman Brian Jones told Ramona Rotarians that, since the legislative session ended on Sept. 9, he has been in Ramona about once a week speaking “because I just love being up here.” Jones, who represents the 77th district was the featured speaker at a recent Ramona Rotary Club meeting, held in Sizzler. Holding up a white flag with a big red star, Jones asked Rotarians if they knew what the flag represents. Some guessed it was from Texas, the lone star state. Jones said the flag design is one that flew in California in 1836 when a group of Englishmen and American nationals rebelled against the rule of the Mexican government. They were tired of a distant and repressive

government that ruled “with an iron fist,” said Jones. For 18 months the flag flew and California was a free nation, he said. Jones then switched to the current state government and said, “It’s time we change the politics in Sacramento.” Serving as state assemblyman has been frustrating and disheartening, the former Santee councilman said, but added that he believes the political winds are going to change in California. Public sector labor unions are ruling the state, he said. “They have way too much control and way too much influence in Sacramento.” Jones said he wrote Assembly Bill 860 that prohibits corporations and labor unions from deducting money from an employee’s paycheck to be used for po-

litical purposes without the employee’s written consent. The bill was in committee and will be introduced in the next legislative session, said a spokesman for his office. According to Jones, 2,300 bills were introduced in the state legislature this year and about 868 new laws were created. He said one Democrat legislator commented that he tries to come up with new laws every day to improve life in California. “Folks, I wake up every day to think of 10 laws to repeal,” he told the Rotarians. Jones said the Republicans were able to prevent $55 billion in tax increases over the next five years. When a Rotarian asked how that was accomplished, Jones said with 28 Republicans and 52 Democrats in the assembly, the Democrats are two

seats shy of having a two-thirds majority, which was needed to pass such legislation. Jones added that if the Democrats reach a two-thirds majority, “they will raise taxes.” The good news, he said, is that the pendulum has swung so far to one direction in California, it’s time for it to start swinging back. Jones said he moved with his family to California in 1978, when the golden state was the land of opportunity, people were buying houses and the economy was doing very well. “In 1978, California was hopping,” said Jones. Now, he noted, many people are leaving the state.

Ramona resident to ‘come on down’ as Price is Right contestant Nov. 10 By MAUREEN ROBERTSON

hen Leroy Matthews Jr. and his younger brother Alex were boys, they’d watch “The Price is Right” on television and talked about one day being on the show. Matthews, now 22, got his chance this summer, when he and Alex, 18, made “Pick Me” T-shirts and headed to Los Angeles. Alex wasn’t selected for the show, but Leroy was. Matthews is a contestant on “The Price Is Right” show that will air on KFMB Channel 8 at 10 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 10. “We can’t tell you whether your newly-minted hometown celebrity will take home the Showcase, but nobody leaves ‘The Price Is Right’ without a great prize — and a really fun chat with host Drew Carey,” states a statement from the show. “We were going to go there, see if we could go

up on stage — at least get in to the studio,” said Matthews. “It took us awhile to get a show date — they kept selling out —but in July we got in the studio.” The show’s producers screen prospective contestants before they enter the studio and, once everyone is seated inside the studio, “they call the names to ‘come on down,’” said Matthews. “My name was one of the names called. I was completely surprised.” Matthews, a Ramona High School Class of 2007 graduate and a graphics design major at California State University Long Beach, said he wasn’t intimidated at all. “It was more surreal,” he said. “There are so many cameras in your face, there’s a lot of excitement, everyone in the crowd’s yelling at you to help you with your pricing game, you’re surrounded by all the people on stage, Drew Carey is talking to you.” Perhaps his years at RHS helped prepare him for the stage. He was Associated

Student Body (ASB) freshman, sophomore and junior class president and an entertainment team member during his senior year. He also played soccer and track at RHS. At Olive Peirce Middle School, he participated in ASB Live. Matthews knows how

the show ends, but the Ramona television audience will have to wait until it airs to see how he did. “You’re not supposed to give it away, but I did get up on stage, I did win the opening bid — but the outcome, they want you to watch it,” he said.

A graphics design intern with Regan Group, a marketing agency in Hawthorne, Matthews is scheduled to graduate from college in spring of 2013. His career goal is to work for a design ﬁrm or an ad agency in graphics design. His brother, a 2011 RHS

graduate and an industrial design student at San Jose State University, took it well when he wasn’t selected as a contestant, said Matthews. “We were just happy that we both were able to go there,” he said. They are the sons of Carolyn and Leroy Matthews of Ramona. Readers who would like to “come on down” to watch a taping of the show and try their luck at being chosen as a contestant will ﬁnd that tickets are free.

Bulldogs lose homecoming game to Broncos Rain keeps hometown crowd light By BILL TAMBURRINO If it weren’t for bad luck… The Ramona Bulldogs lost to Rancho Bernardo 38-22 on Homecoming 2011. It was a bad night. The weather was so bad that the Homecoming ceremonies were canceled for the first time that anybody can remember. And then there was the luck issue. The sparse but loyal crowd that braved the elements had to have a bad feeling when one of Ramona’s captains and the leading rusher in the Palomar League had to be wheeled to the center of the field for the coin toss in a wheelchair. Kirk Kaliszewski suffered a season-ending leg injury and, despite spending most of the week in the hospital recovering from an operation, the senior running back/linebacker had to be on the sideline supporting

his teammates. The Dawgs served notice in the beginning of the game when they opened the contest with an on-side kick. RB recovered the ball, but the Bulldog defense held. The Broncos got out to an early 10-point lead in the first period. The Bulldogs answered with a 23-yard touchdown pass from Hunt-

er McHargue to Jason Laws. Ali Aparicio hit the first of his two PAT kicks to close the gap to 10-7. RB scored to make it a 17-7 game, but the Dawgs answered with a two-play 84-yard drive. On a second and seven from the 19 yard line, McHargue again found Laws open in the Bronco secondary for an 81-yard TD

to make it a 17-14 game. RB then went into its twominute offense and scored with 27 ticks left on the scoreboard clock to take a 24-14 lead into the locker room at intermission. The Broncos put the game away with two third quarter touchdowns, but the Bulldogs refused to give up. Justin Villagrana rushed for 68 yards on four carries in a 70yard TD drive going the final five yards for the score. Elias Jauregui converted a 2-point PAT and the final score was 38-22. Four Bulldogs were used to replace Kaliszewski. Villagrana had 78 yards on six attempts. Jauregui had 55 yards on 14 carries. Javier Dominguez had one rush for three yards and Chandler Vasquez gained one yard on one carry. “Losing Kirk was a tough blow to overcome,” said Coach Damon Baldwin. “The kids that stepped in did fine, tried hard and did a good job, but you can’t replace the experience and knowledge that Kirk has in

our system in three practices.” McHargue had six of 12 passes with two touchdowns and two interceptions for 158 yards. Laws had two grabs, and Christian Drews, Nick Fitzpatrick, Keyanis Crichlow and Robbie Farren had one catch apiece. “There were several positives,” said Baldwin. “Jason Laws had his best game as a Bulldog. Hunter McHargue continues to grow. The o-line played very well. Kwayde Miller turned in another topnotch effort and is showing why he is a Division I (FBS) prospect.” Defensively, the Bulldogs showed more at the game than ever before, continued Baldwin. “We have a lot of sophomores playing and I am proud of them for being thrown into the fire and working hard,” he said. Daniel Kemp led the Bulldogs with 10 tackles. Sophomores T-Bone Williams and Daniel VanTol both racked up nine tackles each. Jauregui had eight tackles, and

Drews and Dominquez both recorded six tackles. Drews recorded two sacks and Sam Noel had one sack. “The rain and weather ruined our home crowd,” said Baldwin. “I hope that we can make up for it on Senior Night. To lose that much gate money concerns me.” Baldwin is the school’s athletic director. “Our athletic department is in dire need and the poor gate hurt the entire athletic department,” he said. “I take my hat off to those that showed up with umbrellas and jackets and braved the weather. The Bulldog Family loves you!” Senior Night is Friday, Nov. 11. Despite its 1-8 record Ramona is the ninth ranked team in Division III. A win over Westview on Friday would go a long way to secure a playoff berth. Friday is Veterans Day. The entire Bulldog athletic program needs a big crowd. “Come and support our seniors playing their last home game,” said Baldwin.

CIF honors Ramona’s Steve Albanese as Coach of the Year Cross country coach credits his athletes By JOE NAIMAN

hen the CIF San Diego Section honored its 201011 Coach of the Year recipients at the beginning of its Oct. 25 Board of Managers meeting, Ramona High School boys cross country coach Steve Albanese’s name was called. “It’s a great honor, and it’s all because of the athletes,” said Albanese, who was not at the meeting. “They’re the ones who put in the work, and they’re the ones who deserve the most recognition.” In 2010 Ramona High’s boys team won the CIF San Diego Section’s Division II cross country championship and had the top three finishers in the Division II

race. The Bulldogs finished seventh among the 23 Division II teams in last year’s state meet. “I teach character,” Albanese said. Albanese noted that character includes characteristics. “The first one that we talk about every year is hard work,” he said. “I try to live by those characteristics,” Albanese said. “My athletes try to do the same thing.” Albanese began his Ramona High School crosscountry coaching career in 2009. “It’s produced a program of success,” he said of his teachings. Albanese ran at McHenry High School in McHenry, Ill., before competing collegiately at North Central College in Naperville, Ill. His college career included an NCAA Division III runner-up team finish.

He began his teaching and coaching career with a year at McHenry High School before moving to Vista and serving as the Vista High School boys cross country assistant coach for a year. Albanese is also the assistant coach for distance runners with Ramona’s track and field program. The coach of the year award is the first for a Ramona coach since Connie Halfaker was honored in October 2007 for the Fall 2006 girls volleyball season. The coaches are selected for the honor by the sports’ other coaches. The CIF sanctions 28 sports when boys and girls programs are counted separately. Two sports, badminton and roller hockey, are played by only one conference, but the CIF recognized coaches from the other 26 sports.

A change in CIF San Diego Section staff resulted in Albanese and several other coaches not being notified of their recognition. Commissioner Dennis

Ackerman retired Oct. 3, leaving Carlton Hoggard as the only staff member who had been with the CIF staff when the 2009-10 awards were presented in October

2010. Hoggard was on vacation the week before the Board of Managers meeting. Each coach of the year also receives a CIF San Diego Section watch.

Notre Dame Tradition I have an athletic Bucket List. I have been fortunate enough to attend several famous athletic venues and events: Several World Series games, an MLB All Star Game, a Super Bowl (it wasn’t called the Super Bowl when the Chiefs played the Packers in the Coliseum), NFL Pro Bowl games, games in Yankee Stadium, Fenway Park, Wrigley Field, Rose Bowls, a World Series game in the Coliseum, Roy Campanella Night, The Indianapolis 500, an NCAA final four, finished a marathon, etc. But nothing I have ever done or experienced compares with the bucket list my daughters, Gina and Tina, gave me on Oct. 29. I am and always have been a fan of the Fighting Irish of Notre Dame. My Irish Catholic grandfather and my Italian Catholic father drummed the “Victory March” into my head before I knew the national anthem or the “Hail Mary.”

Ramona Sentinel

Notre Dame’s motto may be “God, Country, Notre Dame,” but the university and its football program are really about tradition. I have attended dozens of Notre Dame games at the Coliseum and one at Arizona State and I went to one at South Bend when I was 5 years old (well over 39 years ago), but I don’t remember much about the game. My daughters, Gina and Tina, went to a silent auction that had a Notre Dame Football package and purchased the package last spring. So on Oct. 27, my daughters and my wife, Margaret, and this writer left sunny San Diego for fall in South Bend, Ind., via Chicago. The actual game was only a part of the experience. Driving from Chicago to South Bend with a side trip to Gene & Judes for the world’s best hot dog was a treat. The colors of fall in the Midwest are majestic. Upon arriving in South Bend we visited several

restaurants (also watering holes that don’t sell water): The Linebacker, Mulligan’s, and then went for pizza at Rocco’s “Another South Bend tradition.” On Friday we toured the Notre Dame campus. Pictures and the shots on NBC don’t do the Golden Dome, the Grotto, the Basilica, Touchdown Jesus, We’re Number One Moses or the stadium justice. One doesn’t have to be Catholic to appreciate the majesty of the Basilica or the Grotto. We finished the day with a visit to the Notre Dame Bookstore. Notre Dame is about tradition. The Notre Dame Bookstore is about capitalism. We did a lap around the stadium and went through

the tunnel that leads onto the field. That is where one is hit by the awe of tradition of Notre Dame Football. The stadium is closed with gates that can be seen through. Through every gate one can see pictures and plaques, records, lists, statues and memorials. Tradition. On the lap around the stadium there are statues of the Notre Dame coaches who are legends. There are statues of all five of the Notre Dame coaches who won national championships: Knute Rockne (3), Frank Leahy (4), Ara Parseghian (2), Dan Devine (1) and Lou Holtz (1). I had my picture taken in front of the statue of Frank Leahy in honor of Ramona businessman Sean Leahy.

Anybody who doesn’t understand capitalism only has to visit the Notre Dame Bookstore. It sells shirts, shoes, glasses, hats, magnets, games, balls, helmets, food, etc. I even saw a section where they had books! The four of us spent more than the Four Horsemen spent on four years of tuition in under an hour. We did not run out of time. We ran out of money. We attended the pep rally on Friday night and it was amazing. There was a costume contest. Three finalists were named but the Notre Dame team was the final judge and they gave the prize to somebody else. Notre Dame’s coach had been criticized for some remarks he had made about the team and the team’s captains ad-

dressed the controversy and said that the team was like a fist and could not be made into separate fingers. The band played the “Victory March” and the rally ended with the alma mater. The rally was attended by the entire student body and about 6,000 others. The arena was almost full. Only Notre Dame or the service academies could have a pep rally like that. Tradition. We finished the day with a trip to O’Rourke’s Irish Pub for dinner. Game Day is an event that is capitalized. Notre Dame has the biggest tailgate area in the world. The early comers start getting there on about Wednesday. One has to have a hang tag to get to drive into the tailgate area. They go on eSee TIMEOUT on page 36

Tennis team wins first round of playoffs, loses quarterfinals By BILL TAMBURRINO How good is the Palomar League in tennis? The entire league received berths to the CIF playoffs and the entire league won in the first round. Four of the six won in the second round (Westview knocked off Poway) to make it to the semifinals. In the semis, Torrey Pines and Rancho Bernardo tied and Torrey advanced on a tie-breaker to the finals. In the opening round, Ramona beat Olympian High School 11-7 and did so without its usual number one singles player, Dayna Lake. Lake injured her ankle last week and was unable to compete. The doubles teams paced the win as they earned 8 team points. The number one doubles duo, Savannah Goodson and Rachel Vaca, won three sets with scores of 6-2, 6-1 and 6-1. Hannah Kramer and Dallas Forbes had their best match of the season. They started off with a marathon 7-5 game and then registered scores of 6-4 and 6-1. “It was great to get back on the winning track. It has been a while since we won,” said Kramer. The duo of Rebecca Vaca and Lauren Dunker won 2 team points by going 2-6, 6-3 and 6-2. In singles play, Taylor Romero picked up 1 point as she went 0-6, 4-6 and then rallied to post a 6-0. Ellen Douglas also won one set with scores of 1-6, 1-6 and 6-3.

Kelly Gallagher came through with a team point with scores of 0-6, 0-6 and 6-2. Coach Doug Failla tries to get as many athletes playing time during the regular season and that paid off as players asked to step in for the injured Lake and came through with valuable team points. The ladies from the Valley of the Sun lost to Serra in the quarterfinals 14-4. Lake played two sets but was not at full strength and she went 6-1 and 0-6. Romero won one set by posting scores of 1-6, 6-2 and 3-6. Gallagher won a team point by posting a 6-2. Douglas went 0-6, 1-6 and 1-6. In doubles play, Goodson and Rachel Vaca went 6-3, 0-6 and 1-6. Kramer and Forbes registered scores of 2-6, 1-6 and 3-6. Rebecca Vaca and Dunker turned in scores of 1-6, 4-6 and 3-6. Tennis matches are run well. Sportsmanship is paramount in the entire match. The match starts off with every player on both teams being introduced and shaking hands with her first opponent of the day. The goodwill continues during the match and the players end every set with a gesture of sportsmanship. The goodwill does not impair the level of intensity during the competition. The matches are fiercely contested, especially in the Palomar League. And as could be seen by the results in the first round of the playoffs, that intensity continues until the end of the season.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

Kwayde Miller By BILL TAMBURRINO Offensive linemen are anonymous. They seldom get their names called over the public address system or written in the newspaper. Whenever the quarterback gets sacked or a ball carrier gets dropped for a loss, somebody in the crowd will yell, “Block line,” even if it was a back that missed his block. Plenty of people, however, have heard of Kwayde Miller. Kwayde started his football career as a tight end and caught his share of passes but late last season he was moved to the position that over 25 colleges were recruiting him to play — offensive tackle. Kwayde

has also played guard. “Kwayde is the most recruited player that we have had since I have been here,” said Coach and Ramona High Athletic Director Damon Baldwin. “He is not just big. He is a big athlete. He was a legit tight end. He has great skills. “The last three games he has really come into his own. He has developed a tough attitude, which is good. He is a very good lineman. He had an excellent game against Rancho Bernardo.” For his efforts in the Rancho Bernardo game, Kwayde Miller is the Ramona Sentinel Athlete of the Week. Kwayde has played some

defensive line this year, but he considers himself an olineman. “I feel like I suddenly found it in myself,” he said. “I am really comfortable and confident. It is all coming together. The o-line is a lot of fun and we are a very close unit.” The 6-foot 8-inch tall 290-pound senior will be attending San Diego State University next season on a football scholarship. When asked if he is happy with his choice he said, “Absolutely!” San Diego State is close to home and his mom, Kristi, and his dad, Karl, can see

his home games. “Kwayde took visits to Midwestern schools when the weather was nice, but he realized that it gets cold in Wisconsin and some of those places,” his father said when Kwayde selected San Diego State. Kwayde has a 3.5 grade point average and plans to major in criminal justice and pursue a career in law enforcement when his playing days are over. “I would like to play in the NFL, but if that doesn’t work out I would like to pursue a career in the FBI or CIA.” At 6’8, undercover work is out.

RHS Lineman Kwayde Miller, No. 75, is the Ramona Sentinel Athlete of the Week.

Tambo answers Boltman Boltman: I think that you made several good points in your rebuttal to my Time Out about the peeves that I have about mascots. Your response was extremely well-written. You must have had some good English teachers at Ramona High School or you got some handy tips from one of my best English students, Will Jauregui. In actuality we really don’t disagree on much. You admitted that there are “goofy mascots roaming around out there not having a clue on how to entertain people.” Actually they probably do entertain some people or they wouldn’t be out there. My point is that I don’t like them. However, somebody must like them or they would cease to exist. I apologize if I offended Boltman’s head and any other head of any other mascot that is fiberglass and not rubber. Are the muscles fiberglass, too,or are they real? I never used the word cheap, but it could have been inferred. I know that mascot costumes are expensive.

Varsity boys cautious in cross country tri-meet by JOE NAIMAN A tri-meet Nov. 4 at Dos Picos Park ended the regular season for Ramona High School’s boys cross-country varsity team. The 1-4 record in Palomar League dual meets deprived the Bulldogs of a league championship banner, which Ramona Coach Steve Albanese and his runners are willing to trade for a CIF section championship banner and possibly the state championship. “I was not concerned about the score going into the meet, and even afterwards I’m not concerned about it,” Albanese said. A tri-meet involves runners from all three schools competing in the same race, but the scoring is separated so that each school is scored against each other as if only those schools had competed. Mount Carmel defeated Ramona’s varsity by a 17-40 score while Torrey Pines took a 15-45 win over the Bulldogs as well as a 22-33 victory over the Sundevils.

The focus on training for the CIF and state meets rather than dual meet races made the results less important for Ramona’s varsity, while the rain throughout the race made specific times irrelevant to goals. “In the back of the course it’s a lot more muddy,” Albanese said. “The guys have a lot more in them,” Albanese said of the varsity runners’ times. “They’ll be ready when CIF comes.” The race in the rain was the first for Ramona since the November 2010 CIF section finals. “Last year it was very rainy at CIF and our guys performed very well in the rain,” Albanese said. “It was good preparation just in case we do experience heavy rains again.” Ramona won last year’s CIF Division II section finals and had the top three Division II finishers, including winner Dylan Blankenbaker. Blankenbaker is a senior this year, and he fell during the tri-meet. “He scraped up his leg pretty bad and just didn’t want to push it,” Albanese said. The scrape will not affect

Blankenbaker’s ability to compete at the league, section, or state meets. “He said he was OK to keep running after the race was over,” Albanese said. Blankenbaker has also been fighting bronchitis, so the relaxed pace will likely aid in his recovery by the section meet. Ramona senior Graham Gantzer is also expected to be ready for the league meet; Gantzer is nursing an injury and was held out of the tri-meet. The Dos Picos Park boys course is 3.1-miles. Alec Richardson was Ramona’s first finisher, placing ninth overall with a time of 17:18. Cory Thomas was 12th at 17:37, Donny McKay finished in 17:38 to take 14th place, Forrest Riley posted a 16th-place time of 17:43, Blankenbaker’s time of 18:02 was worth 20th place, Josh Spieker took 18:16 and finished 22nd, and Tristan Stidham had a time of 18:55 which put him in 26th place. The Palomar League meet will take place Saturday at Kit Carson Park, and each school can enter up to twelve runners.

Albanese will use three of Ramona’s junior varsity runners at the league meet. Ramona’s junior varsity squad lost to Torrey Pines by a 24-35 score but took a 29-30 win over Mount Carmel. “It shows how important every runner is in the top five,” Albanese said of the Bulldogs’ single-point win over the Sundevils. “You can’t give up any places.” The tri-meet results gave Ramona’s junior varsity a final 3-2 record in league dual meets. “We have two really strong frontrunners in Isaiah Spieker and Collin Uekert, and they’re both freshmen,” Albanese said. Isaiah Spieker was the second overall finisher in the junior varsity race with a time of 18:39 while Uekert was fourth at 18:54. Sophomore Anthony Jauregui, who is also slated to run in the league meet, was sixth at 19:18. Brandon Burrill’s time of 20:14 made him the 18th runner across the finish line while Andrew Gregg finished 19th with a time of 20:18.

I did watch the Predator vs. Boltman video. If people want to watch it on YouTube, that is their prerogative. This is America. I do not believe that it has any place on the sidelines of a football game, but that is only my opinion. My 6- and 9-year-old grandsons enjoyed it. I feel that I must say that I don’t agree with all of the attention that the Raider fans who wear costumes to the games get. They only do so to get recognition, so they are successful because they get on TV every game. Your point about sideline entertainment is well taken. The Charger Girls are not for everybody, but I will take them over an expensive, fiberglass with real sunglasses mascot for my entertainment. But that is just me. To each, his own. I guess the people who pay out big bucks for tickets to a Chargers game deserve sideline entertainment. I recently attended a Notre Dame game and changed my mind about the Leprechaun. He actually does generate spirit and does it with class. But he is not a real leprechaun. He doesn’t have a pot of gold. As for a wager, I am a Raiders fan but I am also a Chargers fan. I attended the first Chargers game in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. But I will accept your wager. If the Chargers win I will have my picture taken with a Charger jersey on and smile. If the Raiders win, you have to wear a Raider jersey in your next public performance at the beginning of the performance or you can make another video and lose to the Predator or pose for a glamour shot as you suggested. I had a standing bet with my late friend Irish Mike Callahan and we had some great times watching each other wearing Charger or Raider clothing from head to toe for an entire work day. I miss those bets and I miss Irish Mike. I still don’t like some mascots. If they are fiberglass I guess they can’t be labeled as phony. Give me the LSU Tiger, the Colorado Buffalo, the Air Force Falcon, the Navy Goat, the Auburn Eagle, the Georgia or Ramona Bulldog every time. – Bill Tamburrino

Ramona Water Dawgs finish regular season 9-20 By JOE NAIMAN Ramona High School’s boys water polo team ended its 2011 regular season with a 9-20 record after losing Palomar League matches Nov. 1 at Westview and Nov. 3 at Mount Carmel. The two league losses gave Ramona a final 0-10 Palomar League record. “Our league is tough,” said Coach Donnie Williams. “If you make any mistakes or have a bad quarter, you’re going to pay for it.” The game against Westview was tied at a goal apiece after the first period, but the Wolverines had a 5-1 lead midway in the second quarter. Three of Westview’s second-period goals were on counterattacks. “That kind of really did us in,” Williams said. Ramona scored the final two goals of the first half, but the Wolverines closed the third quarter with a 7-3 lead and scored the first goal of the fourth period. The final score was 9-4. “We had plenty of opportunities, just couldn’t convert,” Williams said. “We rushed a few shots, threw balls away, that kind of stuff. We need to be a little more poised.” Ramona drew 11 exclusions but scored on only two of those extra-player opportunities. A pair of transition goals gave Mount Carmel a 2-0

lead before Ramona first scored against the Sundevils. Mount Carmel ended the first quarter leading by a 5-1 margin. Ted Dean’s successful outside shot about eight meters from the goal with approximately a minute left in the second period tied the game for the Bulldogs. “In the second quarter we actually played pretty strong,” Williams said. A subsequent Mount Carmel goal gave the Sundevils a 7-6 halftime lead, and four scores in the first two minutes of the third period gave Mount Carmel an 11-6 cushion. The Sundevils led by a 12-7 margin after three periods. Williams gave experience to his substitutes during the fourth quarter, which ended with Mount Carmel on the preferred end of the 17-10 final score. “We scored some goals, but we’ve got to play consistent the whole game,” Williams said. Ramona’s 15-player varsity roster, not including three taxi squad members who joined the varsity for tournaments, included 10 seniors. “There’s a lot of young talent coming up,” Williams said. The Bulldogs lost five senior starters from their 2010 team. “It’s been a good year for us,” said Williams. “I knew it was a rebuilding year.”

JV girls tennis ends on winning note Ramona High School’s junior varsity girls tennis team ended the season with a win against Rancho Bernardo last week. The Bulldogs made the trip down the hill for the match against the Rancho Bernardo Broncos, who had a record of 7 wins and 7 losses, with 3 up and 6 down in league play. A win would secure an overall winning record of 8-7 and 4-6 in league play, considered quite an accomplishment in what is known as one of the toughest tennis leagues around. The final match was highlighted with singles play of Cassidy Owens winning all three of her matches. Also in singles, both Alyssa Virgilio and sub Makaylyn Tallman each earned wins against the

RB players, while Megan Douglass put in a strong effort but came up short in her two matches. While Ramona’s singles players continued to improve over the year, the strength of this Bulldog team all year was the play of its doubles teams, said Coach Joey Briese. Against the home Broncos, the Bulldog teams of Brie Frandsen/Danielle Vizcarra and Taylor Jennings/Kacie Jordan both swept their three matches with little resistance, and the team of Emily Hansen and Gracie Berntsen earned another point by defeating the RBHS number three doubles team. “Unfortunately, on this day of triumph the Bulldogs were missing Sammi Stotts and Ashlyn Wienk from the

lineup,” said Briese. “While they did not play that day, over the year they contributed to many victories playing in both singles and doubles.” This tennis season was unforgettable for all of the members of the JV girls tennis team, continued Briese. “They worked together, helping each other learn from their mistakes, as well as celebrated together each other’s successes,” he said. “They worked hard at practice each day, and over the year that hard work really showed off in their matches. And no match showed it more than that final 12-6 victory. At the last practice, Briese said the girls had made great strides over the year and that he is proud of each of them.

Spikers outmatched in final two regular-season games By JOE NAIMAN All six Palomar League girls volleyball teams were selected to the CIF playoffs during the Nov. 5 selection and seeding meeting. That includes Ramona, which posted a 10-8 record outside league competition but was winless in 10 Palomar League matches. “It’s a tough league,” said Coach Connie Halfaker. The seeding beyond the top four teams is unofficial and can reflect attempts to avoid first-round matches between league opponents rather than the actual belief of a team’s strength. Ramona was placed as the 11th seed in the Division II playoffs, Mount Carmel was seeded ninth in Division II, Westview was the third Division II seed, Rancho Bernardo was seeded ninth in Division I, and Torrey Pines and Poway were the top two Division I seeds. The top two Division II seeds were La Costa Canyon and Bonita Vista, both of which were moved down from Division I for 2011-12 along with sixth-seeded West Hills, which hosted Ramona in last night’s first-round playoff game. Fourth-seeded Canyon Crest was moved up from Division III. “Those four came in and took some spots,” Halfaker said. Westview was Ramona’s Nov. 1 opponent, and the match in the Wolverines’ gym was a three-game sweep. The Wolverines won 25-21, 25-11 and 25-19 contests. “They came out pretty strong and confident, and they really were playing really well,” Halfaker said of her players.

Halfaker believes that the score in the second game was due to the Wolverines’ adjustments. “Westview kind of sped up the pace a little bit,” she said. “It took us a bit to respond.” Ramona setter Mikayla Derochie had 19 assists and also led the Bulldogs with three blocks. Nicole Darrough had 15 kills and two serving aces. Jenna Hickle and Samantha Waelchli each contributed seven kills. Ramona’s Nov. 3 loss at Mount Carmel was in four games. The Bulldogs took a 26-24 victory in game one and had a significant lead in the second game before the Sundevils came back for a 25-18 triumph. “All of a sudden we just couldn’t put the ball away,” Halfaker said. “We rallied, but we didn’t have a finishing third contact.” Mount Carmel closed the match with 25-19 and 25-21 victories. “Defensively we played really well, serve-receive was real good,” Halfaker said. “We just weren’t finishing.” Waelchli led the Bulldogs with nine kills against the Sundevils, Derochie had 28 assists, Darrough obtained 27 digs, Hickle led the team with four aces, and Abby Roulier recorded two blocks. Ramona’s 10-18 overall record does not include the Palm Desert Tournament, where Ramona won four of six matches which were played to 21 points rather than to the regulation 25 points.

Female harriers overcome weather but not opponents By JOE NAIMAN The final home meet of 2011 for Ramona High School’s girls cross country team took place Nov. 4 during a rainstorm. Although all 13 Ramona varsity and junior varsity runners finished the race, the tri-meet at Dos Picos Park saw Torrey Pines and Mount Carmel dominate the Bulldogs. “I told them it was going to be tough,” said Coach Kim Toth. “They went into it realistically.” The runners knew the strength and depth of the Torrey Pines and Mount Carmel teams throughout the week, although they weren’t expecting the

course conditions to be what they were. “It was wet and cold,” Toth said on Friday. “It hasn’t quit raining up here since about 10 o’clock this morning.” When Toth arrived at the course, the outside temperature gauge in her car read 46 degrees. An appearance of sun prior to the meet’s first race, featuring the junior varsity girls, provided hope that the weather would improve. “We actually thought it was going to clear up,” Toth said. That proved not to be the case. “The conditions were not ideal, but that is what cross country is,” Toth said.

In a tri-meet, runners from all three schools compete in the same race, although for meet results each team is scored against each other as if the third school was not present. The Torrey Pines varsity beat Ramona by a 16-47 score and Mount Carmel by a 16-41 margin while Mount Carmel took a 2043 win over Ramona. Toth had instructed her runners to run as a team but also to run individually as a preparation for the league and CIF meets. Four Torrey Pines girls finished in a pack with times of 16:49 and 16:50 on the 2.75-mile Dos Picos Park course, and Ramona senior Lauren Cor-

tez placed fifth overall at 16:51. Ramona’s next finisher was freshman Cassidy Blankenbaker, whose time of 18:37 placed 20th overall. Rachel Brown was 27th at 19:07, Teresa Leon earned 28th place after a 19:11 performance, and Caitlin Choy finished 29th with a time of 19:47. Ramona freshman Francheska Gonzalez is out for the season with tendinitis and shin splints, and sophomore Anna Mazzola is awaiting further medical testing for a diagnosis but is also out for the season. The Bulldogs had nine varsity runners and four junior varsity competitors in the tri-meet.

Because Ramona did not have five junior varsity runners, the Bulldogs forfeited both matches. Ramona’s top finisher was junior Alaina Lindquist, who took 20:47 and finished 26th. “I think some of the girls had a good finish,” Toth said. “They’ll go into league finals, I think, with a really good attitude.” What is now a 13-member squad presents a dilemma for Toth. “That’s where it’s tough being a coach, ‘cause I can only take 12 to league,” she said. “One of the girls won’t be able to go.” The league finals will take place Saturday at Kit Carson Park.

Pee Wee Dawg Pack falls to Temecula Bruins



eBay for about $250 a game. Many tailgaters have RVs; those who don’t have tents. Chairs, sofas, hammocks are not uncommon. Most of the tailgaters had flags on flag poles. The flags had Notre Dame logos and had the date(s) of the ND graduate(s) and graduating class(es) on them. Three generations of dates were not uncommon. Several dates per family were the norm. Tradition. A friend of my daughter Tina, Kristi, met us and brought experienced tailgate equipment coolers, chairs, table and food, but anybody who walked by knew that we were rookies. Since it was a 3:30 p.m. local time kickoff, we got there at 10 a.m. We got in but not much space was left. Tradition. At about noon a storm front came through. Somebody yelled out a warning. “Storm in about five minutes. It will only last about a half an hour.” The blue-gray October sky (Grantland Rice’s line, tradition) turned black and for about an hour it rained and hailed. Rookies like us took cover in their cars. The hard core ignored the rain and hail. Most were dressed

age Bailey started as quarterback for the first time in Saturday’s game and led the Pack on of-

fense. The teams traded possessions throughout the quarter and Michael Mazzola stepped up the intensity when he snatched an interception on a Bruin second down. Eder Landgrave took out the quarterback late in the first quarter, giving the ball back to the Pack. TJ Marquez, Shawn Coane, Liam Garry, Colton Snyder, Dom McManus and Tyler Pierce are credited with tackles as the first quarter wound down with a 0-0 score. The Bruins opened the second quarter with a touchdown with the extra point counting. Coane had several runs moving the ball down the field. On a Dawg turnover on downs, Temecula again scored and succeeded again with the extra point. The Dawg Pack quickly answered with Coane taking the ball to the end zone. The second quarter ended with the Bruins leading 6-22. The third quarter opened with the Bruins putting another touchdown on the board with the extra kick counting. It didn’t take long for Gabriel Stallman to recover a Pack possession when Temecula fumbled the ball. Bailey completed his first pass of the game to Michael Savage, moving the ball down the field with the help of Na-

than Kiddoo clearing a path. Coane also led the team to a first down with another run. Snyder, Marquez, and Mathew Duvalian had several key blocks and tackles throughout the third quarter. The defense had an strong performance led by Kiddoo, who had several key tackles and didn’t let the Bruins score for the rest of the game. Possession went back and forth as the final quarter got under way. Coane returned a punt all the way to the end zone, putting the final Pack points on the board. Pierce also secured a possession with a fumble recovery. The clock ran down with a final score of 12-30. Even though the Pack fell to the Bruins, the team united and played a very successful game against a higher division team, said Pack coaches, adding that each team member came off the field knowing he did his part in the numerous successes the Pack had despite the score. The team honored one of its own, Chris Van Dell, by shouting his name in the final huddle. Van Dell had been injured in the practice prior to Saturday’s game and was unable to suit up, but showed his support and passion for his team by being on the sidelines. The Pack left the field on a high note, knowing that on both sides of the ball, each player showed up and played from the heart, their coaches agreed.

warmly. Some wore basketball uniforms and other Halloween costumes. All of the Notre Dame fans had some sort of Notre Dame gear or green Irish clothing. The others had Navy gear or uniforms. Tradition. The Notre Dames were fanatical but they treated the Navy fans with respect. Navy and Notre Dame have been playing football since 1927 and have a contract that runs through 2026. Tradition. The Notre Dame Band played the national anthem the way it is supposed to be played and as the “land of the free” was sounded two Navy jets conducted a flyby. It was announced after the anthem that one of the F/A 18 Hornets was flown by a crew of Naval Academy graduates. The other F/A 18 Hornet was flown by a crew of Notre Dame grads. After the grads landed their jets, they came to the game and were honored by the 80,000 in attendance. Navy had won three of the last four previous games, but Notre Dame dominated the game. The score was not important. We sat behind the Notre Dame student section where over 8,000 stu-

dents stood for the entire game. Some actually were passed around the section and others were thrown into the air as they were used for pushups after every Irish score. The Irish scored 56 points, so there were a lot of pushups. Tradition. There was absolutely no trash talking or unsportsmanlike conduct during the game in the stands or on the field. After every score the player who made the touchdown gave the ball to the official and he was congratulated by his teammates. The halftime show was amazing. The Fighting Irish Band paid tribute to Navy and all of our armed forces. They played numbers honoring every branch and asked the members of the audience to stand when their branch of the service was honored. Tradition. During every television time out, graduates from both schools were honored on the field. One Notre Dame grad, a retired judge who was wounded at the Battle of Iwo Jima, was honored. He was wearing his Navy uniform, that of a full captain in the USN. Tradition. After the game the Notre Dame team stood in front of the student section as the alma mater was sung. The Navy team stood behind them. The Midshipmen then went in front of their loyal following and the Irish stood behind them. Class and Tradition. The fans, teams, coaches and students from both teams had a great time. Both schools not only preach but live the concept of family and teamwork. They are both relatively small schools that are very difficult to get into. They are both unique in concept and reality. Tradition. The game experience was unique. It was not typical. It was what could be and should be, but is not the norm. Attending the game made me proud of my religion, my service to the country and my family. Everybody should have an experience like the one my family provided for me.

County OK with two of three projects, says Degenfelder By KAREN BRAINARD John Degenfelder said the County of San Diego Historic Site Board “knocked the wind out of my sails” when it did not approve historic designation for Old Survery 97. He is, however, upbeat that two of his other pet projects are moving along with county approval — the Santa Maria Greenway and renovating an old rodeo arena. Degenfelder, a founding member of the Ramona Trails Association, is on the advisory board for the county’s Parks and Recreation Department and a volunteer on the mounted patrol. He, along with his wife, Arvie, have been seeking historical designation for Old Survery 97, a former Native American trail and stagecoach route. The 6 1/2-mile route cuts through what is now the Ramona Grasslands Preserve down into the San Pasqual Valley, near Bandy Canyon Road. For almost 20 years, the Degenfelders have dreamed of seeing the notable route receive proper designation. They had documentation

prepared by historian Stephen Van Wormer, along with maps and photos of the route. For the Historic Site Board’s Oct. 17 meeting, the Degenfelders prepared packets of information for each board member. They also sought required consent from affected property owners. Degenfelder said 80 to 90 percent of the route is on county-owned land. The rest is on land owned by six property owners on Bandy Canyon Road. For the route to be designated historic, at least 50 percent of the property owners had to give their consent, but only two did and one was the county, said Degenfelder. “The other ﬁve did not respond,” Degenfelder said. The county took that as a “no,” he added. “We just needed four out of the seven to make it work.” Degenfelder said there is concern that such designation would create a trail and hikers would trespass on private property, but that is not what he is seeking. “I want to make it clear,” he said. “We’re not indicat-

ing a trail, just a historic site description.” The board also did not give its approval, he said, because a property owner disputed part of the route’s location. Degenfelder said Ramona historian Richard Carrico was at the meeting to support Van Wormer’s documentation of the route and its location. Degenfelder said this was his third meeting with the historic site board, which meets every three months. The next meeting will be Jan. 23 and

Degenfelder said he has to decide his next step. In positive news, Degenfelder said the county gave the OK to the Ramona Trails Association to refurbish an old rodeo arena on the former Davis-Eagle Ranch off Montecito Way that is now part of the county-owned Ramona Grasslands. The arena is at least 60 years old, he said, and has an old twostory judges stand. The trails association will pay for improvements that

are expected to take about six months. Plans include having the arena available for horse training and exercise and occasional horse and dog shows. Another piece of good news, he said, was the county board of supervisors’ approval of $20,000 in

Neighborhood Reinvestment Program money for the Santa Maria Creek Greenway. The money, he said, will go toward creating a staging area and kiosk on Montecito Road where the county owns about an acre of land between the creek and the former elementary school.

fter being in the fitness business for 17 years, I have heard a lot of reasons for not starting a fitness program. Here’s my top 5 excuse list: 1. Money 2. Motivation 3. Spouse/kids 4. Not in Shape 5. Time I’d love to address each of these, but we are going to focus on the last one, TIME! Just yesterday after a grueling 45-minute bike ride and 20-minute high intensity interval weight training session, two of the trainers at the club and I decided to eat a healthy sandwich at a local restaurant. In a matter of 20 minutes I had two people say to me, “When I have time, I’m going to get started on that fitness program.” We have time for what we make time for. Did you know the average American household has its TV on for 6 hours and 47 minutes? You may not watch TV for 6 hours, but you probably watch at least 6 hours per week. Imagine what kind of shape you’d be in if you took half of your TV watching time and dedicated that to some sort of physical activity. It just so happened that the same morning I heard this excuse I got a message from my friends at “Simple Truths” about time: “If you had a bank that credited your account each morning with $86,400 — with no balance carried from day to day — what would you do? Well, you do have such a bank...time. “Every morning it credits you with 86,400 seconds. Every night it rules off as ‘lost’ whatever you have failed to use toward good purposes. It carries over no balances and allows no overdrafts. You can’t hoard

it, save it, store it, loan it or invest it. You can only use it — time.” Here are six terrific truths about time: First: Nobody can manage time. But you can manage those things that take up your time. Second: Time is expensive. As a matter of fact, 80 percent of our day is spent on those things or those people that only bring us two percent of our results. Third: Time is perishable. It cannot be saved for later use. Fourth: Time is measurable. Everybody has the same amount of time — pauper or king. It is not how much time you have; it is how much you use. Fifth: Time is irreplaceable. We never make back time once it is gone. Sixth: Time is a priority. You have enough time for anything in the world, so long as it ranks high enough among your priorities. Let me encourage you to stop using time as an excuse to start on your fitness program. This will be a life changing part of your life and deserves a portion of those 86,400 seconds of your day. We all get the same amount of time each day. Why is it that some people get all the work, family and other priorities of the day done and still have “left over” time for their exercise program? THEY MAKE TIME FOR IT AND MAKE IT A PRIORITY. Now is the time, Ramona. If you need help getting the most out of your exercise time, feel free to drop me an email or give me a call personally.

Scouts participate in fun run at Mission Bay Park

embers of Ramona Girl Scout Troop No. 8009 put on their running shoes and participated in the ﬁfth annual Girl Scout New Day 5K Fun Run held recently at Mission Bay Park’s DeAnza Cove. The focus of the event

was to raise awareness about the importance of a balanced, healthy lifestyle for girls of all ages, said Danielle Shaw, troop leader. Families were encouraged to take their ﬁrst steps toward a New Day of greater wellbeing while making positive changes in the lives

of girls. Leaders of the Ramona Troop took this opportunity to also teach the girls the importance of warming up before any physical activity by leading stretching exercises before the run, said Shaw. Eight girls in the troop ran/walked in the 1-mile

Wall.” Written on that wall were things such as becoming more active, being more positive, promising to walk their dogs more frequently, and being nicer to their siblings. Money raised at the event will help fund Girl Scouts’ “Live Healthy, Lead Healthy” programs.

Runners and walkers of all ages came out to show their support. 1-mile Finish Times Ashley Hively — 7:15.7 Jade Shaw — 7:26.8 Isabel Cervantes — 7:37.5 Daniela Romero — 7:40.9 Janee Doomey — 8:38.9 Maybelle Wilson — 10:43.7 Farrah Dixon — 10:44.2 Emma Van Zandt — 10:54.3

Fernando Montijo celebrates 95th birthday Some 60 family members and friends of longtime Ramona residents Fernando Montijo and his wife, Mercedes, celebrated Fernando’s 95th birthday at their Ramona home on Oct. 8. Guests were treated to mariachis and an outdoor catered grilled dinner. Montijo was born in Oakland, Calif., on Oct. 4, 1916. A World War II veteran, he served in Germany in the U.S. Army 75th Infantry Division. After retiring from civil service in Mare Island

ty. That was 1979 and he worked for another 13 years with General Dynamics in San Diego. During his time at General Dynamics, he designed and for the most part built their family home in Ramona by himself on weekends. The 3,000-square-foot California mission-style home took about six years to complete. Still in good health, he and his wife said they have enjoyed a great life full of family and friends and look forward to many happy years ahead.
