About 100 Gilroyans bit into the details of the new Alexander Station affordable housing project on 10th Street and they choked on the idea that the 262-unit complex has enough parking. “They way underestimated the parking and I suspect that this is going to need at least twice the amount of parking they have,” said resident Carl Pratt at the Chamber of Commerce Government Relations Meeting at Old City Hall last week. “The apartments are for people with lower incomes, so you'll probably have a couple of people working. Therefore there’s going to be two cars at least. If they only have 1.7 cars per apartment you know there’s going to be overflow and there’s no place to put it.” They also worried that there will be more students living there than the 70 estimated by the builder and the Gilroy Unified School District. “My biggest concern at this point is the amount of population in relations to the school district and I think the parking will be a nightmare,” said Lisa Faria, the Chairperson of the Board of the Gilroy Chamber of Commerce and a local realtor. It’s been no secret that many in Gilroy haven't been fans of the Alexander Station project. They think it’s too big; that there would be people bussed in from Oakland and it would take up too much city resources. With 800 to 1000 expected residents, developer US Residential will have 1.7 parking spaces per unit. For the majority of people at the meeting, this number felt woefully inadequate. Alexander Street, which is also shared with International Paper, will close parking on one side to accommodate semi-truck traffic. US Residential has not yet

A trend for Zen GILROY BUSINESS OFFERS PATHS TO PEACE, TRANQUILITY, MINDFULNESS By Bryce Stoepfel Reporter
Within minutes, the mind wanders off to distant forests and worries melt away, if only for a while. Dawn Culp at The Zen Room, may have the cure for the work-a-day blues. And for a reasonable price too. “My services are all designed for people to find that really quiet space inside of themselves,” Culp,44, said of helping her customers find peace of mind away from the hustle of modern day society. “People often tell me after a group meditation that they haven’t slept that well in a long time.”
For Culp, opening her business two years ago was a leap of faith. Many would consider Gilroy to be a little too small, and perhaps a bit too straight laced for a meditation business to thrive. In referring to her customer base, Culp said you may be surprised who frequents The Zen Room. “I’m starting to see a lot more men come in here and say, ‘Hey, what do I have to lose?’” Culp said of some of the changing attitudes she has seen regarding meditation. “All it takes is a veteran, who has suffered horrible experiences, say in Afghanistan, who has terrible PTSD. They come in and they feel so much better. They come back every month and they come to the classes and the group classes. I've seen a lot of improvement in them
and they go back to their VA doctors and ask if they can incorporate meditation as part of the VA offerings that are covered.” Culp grew up in Los Gatos but later moved to San Jose to work in the tech industry. She moved to Gilroy with her husband about 14 years ago with the intent of staying for a couple of years as their home appreciated in value before they moved back to San Jose. Their plans would change. “We fell in love with Gilroy,” Culp said. “I was about as left brain as you could get without being an engineer. In about 2007 I started wondering if that was going to be what I wanted to do for the rest of my life and if that was ➝ Zen Room, 4

THEY HAVE MAJOR ISSUES WITH PARKING, SCHOOLS AND SECURITY
COST CLOSE TO $1 MILLION By Bryce Stoepfel Reporter
The Bally fire, which started Sept. 3, was 100 percent contained the following Monday at a cost of close to $1 million, according to Gilroy Fire Chief Alan Anderson. Police have since reported the blaze was set by four teens using illegal fireworks. The case has been referred to District Attorney Jeff Rosen’s office for prosecution.
“This was a significant event for us, being on a holiday weekend and during one of the hottest periods in Gilroy,” Chief Anderson told the city council Monday night. “It was 700 feet past Ballybunion Court, so that meant we couldn’t use our four-wheel drive apparatus and we had to have our firefighters hike up to the scene.” Further complicating the job was the steepness of the terrain, which precluded the use of bulldozers from most of the area around the fire.

formulated a specific plan as to how it will assign parking. “I think they underestimated the number of students going into Gilroy schools,” Lois Pratt added. Gilroy Unified School District Superintendent Deborah Flores was present and said that the school district expects at least 70 new students living in the Alexander Station Apartments. The grade school students will be bussed to Las Animas Elementary School. “It seems to me that there’s not going to be enough parking for the residents and the traffic is going to be a nightmare on that corner and that’s just the truth,” said Bruce Morasca. “I’m a landlord and actual tenants have come and told me that they’ve applied and management told them that they don’t qualify but they should apply to another location they have in Pleasanton,”
Anna Montes said. “I was born and raised in Gilroy and looking at the qualifications they are either below the minimum income or above the income. Looking at that, I think that I qualify. I have a son in college, both my husband and I work and we’re self-employed.” Amanda Sanders, a District Manager for US Residential who will be managing the property, said that the company would not give preference to out-of-town residents. Applicants, she reported, would be processed in order by when they applied. US Residential will use a third party screening company to check the credit scores and criminal records of applicants. Those with records that include violent crimes, such as assault or weapons charges, will not be accepted. Applicants with drug charges and DUIs will also not be accepted. “The parking is not
right; you can’t have that many people and expect them to have one car,” resident Lois Kleinkauf said. “I don’t like the idea that, there’s a lot of tax money going in. We’re paying a lot. People are going in who aren’t paying anything. Who pays for that? HUD pays for that and who pays for HUD? The taxpayers. As a taxpayer, I don’t have a pool or a billiard room. It’s over luxury, just like the jails. It just doesn’t seem fair to the taxpayers.” Police Chief Scot Smithee said he is working with city officials to hire more officers along with a newly hired traffic officer. Some in attendance were not satisfied from what they heard from the chief. “I think the planning isn’t very good,” Georgine Scott-Codiga said, complaining that neither the city nor the developer has put enough thought into the security needs of a thousand new residents.

and four or more times a month costs $69. “In the one-on-one sessions it’s just them and me and it’s completely confidential,” Culp said. “It allows them to be vulnerable and a lot of people don’t think they can really release what they need to release in a group setting. If a tear or two come out, they don’t feel they need to shove it back in because someone may be watching. It can be an emotional experience.” Culp is experimenting with Zen Room memberships which cost $97 a month for a single one-on-one, one-hour appointment and one group meditation, along with 10 percent off on all items in the retail store. A more affordable package offers onehalf an hour session, one group session and 5 percent retail items for $57. Along with hypnotherapy, Culp offers an array of other services.

While she worked her nine to five job working in business intelligence and business operations in Silicon Valley, she became certified to do hypnotherapy, which led to learning how to lead oneon-one and group meditations. After working nights and weekends in hypnotherapy and meditation, she decided to strike out on her own. “I opened my own space two years ago and I just moved to this larger location a month and a half ago,” Culp said. “I believe that is direct evidence that the work I'm doing is striking a chord with people.” Open Tuesday through Saturday 11 a.m.- 4 p.m. and evenings only by appointment, Culp offers group meditation classes for $20 and one-on-one meditation sessions on a sliding scale. For the once a month mental one-hour meditation Culp charges $85. Two or three, onehour sessions a month cost $75

OPINION FROM THE WEB I don’t see the draw More traffic, construction, and residents can't even use it unless they pay for an expensive hotel room in the same city they live in I am not seeing the draw here. Kristin Weitz Via Gilroy Dispatch Facebook page
City should improve parks instead Stop pushing this Dispatch. We already know your stance on this since it's not your first article promoting it! It seems like you're in bed with the city council and serve as their propaganda machine. If the city council wants to build a water slide park here that's not just for young families and doesn't exclude everyone else that doesn't stay there to get tax revenue money then fine. But that's not the case with Great Wolf Building a park that doesn't even cater to young adults and teens (who have the most disposable income) is dumb and short sighted.
Shouldn’t Gilroy license rideshare drivers?
I
Who pays for the blaze? t cost $1 million for firefighters to quell the blaze in the Gilroy hills last week and police arrested four teenagers for setting the fire with illegal fireworks gone awry. So the question that comes up is who should pay the expenses? The current trend around the state is to bill the responsible parties when they are adults and that triggers a debate. Should the families of the 14 and 15 year olds have to pay the bill? We say yes, even though we hear the arguments that kids are kids and do stupid things by virtue of the fact that their brains aren’t fully developed. The law protects their identities to prevent them for suffering for their actions for the rest of their lives. We suggest that their parents knew or should have known that they are blasting off hazardous materials in the hills. How many times do people have to be told? The media was full of warnings from officials about the dangers of illegal fireworks and it’s a parent’s duty to know what their kids are doing and to educate them not to set fireworks in the dry hills, or anytime. Why do rideshare services get a break? Local cab companies are struggling under the weight of city fees for licenses, permits, inspections and drug tests, while worldwide rideshare companies such as Lyft and Uber get a free ride (pun intended). Why? Gilroy is always looking for more revenue and this is low-hanging fruit. Why not charge the rideshare companies the same business license fees as cab companies? San Francisco has sent notices to 60,000 rideshare drivers charging a $91 yearly license fee, according to the Los Angeles Times. More than 19,000 have paid it. Taxi companies are highly monitored by the city, so why are the rideshare companies given an unfair advantage? Meanwhile, those companies have sponsored a statewide bill that would allow

drivers to get one license for working in the whole state, rather than having to buy individual business licenses to work in each city.
Gilroy gardens is a place that already caters to young families What about those who have teens now, and who have outgrown the Gilroy gardens type of park? Great Wolf is in the same vein. The city council should actually do some leg work and contact some of the parks like "Schlitterbahn"or the "Wisconsin Dells" to explore better ideas and then build something all ages and residents within and outside of Gilroy can use, and which would bring in more tourism than Great Wolf. Right now the council as usual is just being lazy and piggybacking off this old idea that former council member Perry Woodward floated and promoted not to long ago.
Not in our backyards? If you listen to the knee-jerkers, nothing would ever be built in Gilroy again. Nothing. We’d make the city great again by rolling the clock back to 1950, except for everyone who has already moved in.
Once again I'm in favor of tax revenue, in favor of construction of a water park (for all) (not one that excludes, or caters to just young families).
We suggest that their parents knew or should have known that they are blasting off hazardous materials in the hills. How many times do people have to be told?
that everyone can enjoy, something that would be utilized by all ages, residents and tourists
But the NIMBYs aren’t unique to this city. They come out against most every proposal everywhere. In Santa Clara, they voted down a chance to build a stadium for the San Francisco Giants and then finally built one for the San Francisco 49ers. In San Jose, there were huge \ fights about building an arena for the Sharks in the late 1980s and now you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who thinks that was a bad idea. In Gilroy we know we need affordable housing and places for people to work, but when someone proposes construction to fill those needs, opponents come out in force. Every new idea is a bad one, according to them. And if that’s not enough, they come up with falsehoods and bat those around, such as the claims that people from Oakland will get priority in the new Alexander Street affordable housing project. We hear that over and over, and it’s just not true. All we ask is that each idea is assessed fairly on its merits and whether they solve the problems at hand or create more problems.

Then you'll get your precious tax dollars without as much public resistance. Great Wolf Lodge is not an answer that resonates with "most". David M. Young Via Gilroy Dispatch Facebook page
Sounds like a good revenue source This is a no-brainer. Lodging taxes, and employment dollars alone would be in the many millions every year.

What’s up with this eyesore?
By Bev Stenehjem
Dear Red Phone: There is a house on Third and Benassi streets in Gilroy with two inoperable cars sitting in the driveway that haven’t been moved for years, a large section of broken down fence and four feet high weeds. What can be done about this eyesore?
T
hank you, good caller, for asking about this house that is well-known to Red Phone. We have noticed that in an area of generally well-kept homes, this corner house has fallen into worsening disrepair for a number of years,

impacting housing values and, in general, is just a sad looking property. Red Phone has been working diligently with Code Enforcement and the weed and vehicle Abatement departments for the last several months to see what, if anything, can be done. Like many other things, it’s complicated. Because the house is on private property, the process to make code corrections can be long and difficult. The homeowner who lives there has been non-responsive to phone calls, letters and citations that have been left on his door. Unless there is a safety issue that causes imminent danger, a homeowner has the general freedom to maintain a home to his or her liking. So although there are specific blight codes about the storage of inoperable vehicles and out-of-control weeds, there are no blight codes about damaged fences. Scott Barron, of Code Enforcement, is working on the fence issue. “The city needs to follow due process before going onto someone’s private property. We are still trying to get the owner’s compliance. Since the fence is not posing a life threatening or safety issue and

is not in the public’s way, it would be unusual for the city to make the fence repairs. It would take quite a bit of work including staff reports, public hearings, council approval, property liens, writing the scope of work, getting contractor bids, requesting bids and then overseeing the work itself.” The good news is that the weed abatement department had the tall, dry weeds mowed down in early summer as the weeds presented a safety issue
to drivers whose vision was blocked by them as they made their turn onto Third Street. Last week, after a series of letters and citations without any response from the owner, the city’s vehicle abatement department finally towed the two vehicles that had become permanent fixtures on the driveway for so many years. Mary Escamilla, who lives across the street, expressed her gratitude, “Thank you to the city for taking these much
needed steps in cleaning up this house.” The remaining item is the fallen-down fence which faces the busy Third Street. Red Phone wondered if a volunteer task force, comprised of concerned neighbors, might be able to repair the fence. “It is completely legal for neighbors to help – but they should get the owner's approval, first,” explained Barron.

According to Dad, he had a great childhood. He spent most of his time hunting, fishing and trying to bend as many rules as possible. He graduated from Gilroy High School and participated in football and track. He was also in student government and was class vice president by virtue of a stuffed ballot box. Dad enlisted in the Air Force and was deployed to the Korean conflict. He was stationed in Tokyo and Korea before being shipped home with cancer, which he was able to beat. After recuperating, he was stationed at Hamilton Field and had the great pleasure of taking the base commander on hunting trips to the Dowdy Ranch. After a brief courtship, Dad married Shirley Phillips, in Las Vegas on November 13, 1953. A telegram sent to the family said “Married 8:30 inside alter very happy = Shirley and Dick.” That started a journey of almost 64 years, three children and too many moves to count. Dad had several careers that ranged from farmer, to cannery field man, to western store owner, to carpet layer, to specially gourmet food store owner. Finally, Dad and Mom settled into making and selling western-themed crafts. They enjoyed going to shows throughout California, not so much for the money, but to establish and maintain friendships. Dad is survived by his wife, Shirley, who cared for him until the end. He is also survived by his children, Mike (Tina), Nancy (Nick) and Jim (Pam). He is also survived by his grandchildren, Jay (Laura), Jeff (Becky), Ryan, Kyle and Tyson. He also had five great grandchildren, Cali, Jack, Layne, Everett and Clark. Dad is also survived by his brother Glenn (Muriel) and many nieces, nephews and cousins. In keeping with Dad’s wishes, there will be no services.
arren went to be with the Lord on September 11, 2017. Warren was born in Jersey City, NJ on January 13, 1931. He was preceded in death by his parents, George and Louise Blakley, sister Elizabeth Louise, brother James, first wife Marilyn, and second wife Betty Lou.
ur Father, Richard Harlan “Dick” Brem passed away peacefully in Turlock, after a prolonged illness. Dad was born in Gilroy to Richard and Mae Brem on July 12, 1930. Legend has it that he was one of the first babies born at Wheeler Hospital and the first of three generations of Brems born there.

A firefighter hangs up his boots A CAREER OF TRAGEDIES AND JOYS By Jack Foley
Contributed
NEW TRAILS Long time and much loved firefighter Colin Martin is retiring
and ready to start a new chapter in his life. 21 employees, a number now at about 35. Of the most significant changes, Martin said, one has been departments going from single-mission responders to multi-skilled, multi-tasking agencies with state-of-theart vehicles and equipment, ones whose personnel put in a required 240 hours of training a year and do everything from fighting fires and water rescues to sophisticated arson investigations and hazardous chemical calls and are the city’s first medical responders. Firefighter pay has undergone ladder-climbing changes, too. When he started, Martin earned $24,000 a year, not counting benefits. At retirement, he was pulling down more than $173,000 a year and had an annual benefits package worth $80,000–for a total compensation of more than $253,300 a year. Pensions also are hot stuff these days compared to when Martin stepped on his first tailboard. For his CalPERS retirement, after 32 years with the city, Martin’s pension is likely to be in the $140,000 a year range. Another change in the fire service has been the explosion in calls, from about 500 in 1985 to 5,000 today, Martin said, the

When Colin Martin drives around Gilroy he sees, hears and feels things no one else in his family knows about. They are called firefighter memorials. It might be a corner where a woman died in a car crash, a house that once screamed with wailing after a teen suicide, or a store aisle where an old man left this life from heart failure. When Martin says, “they are all over town,” firefighters know what he means. Those private and often terrible memories are part of what Martin carries with him as he and his wife, Kelly a former county foster mother, embark on the next chapter of life–his retirement. In June, the one-time grocery bagger retired from the Gilroy Fire Department after 32 years of service to the community he calls home, and a total of 35 years of quelled blazes, rescued disaster victims, chemical spills staunched, babies delivered, cats plucked from trees and medical care and comfort to the sick, injured, frightened and dying. To say Martin will be missed seems wholly inadequate. “Our fire department is better off today because of his contributions and his retirement creates a void which will be difficult to fill,” said Gilroy Fire Chief Alan Anderson, who learned a lot about the department’s history from the veteran Martin when he came aboard. “His steadfast leadership has provided many of our members with a role model to emulate,” Anderson said. Indeed, fellow firefighters describe their even-keeled friend as a compassionate man of deep faith and strong moral values who is devoutly active in the New Hope Community Church and is a smart, calm leader who treats others with respect, dignity and caring. “Safety was always his number one priority; he made sure firefighters and civilians were safe and that everyone was going to go home after the shift,” said Greg Lopez of Hollister, an acting Gilroy fire captain and 15-year department veteran. “He’s the kind of guy you definitely want on your side, the one you want to be in the trenches with,” said Shaun Peyghambary, of Gilroy, an acting division chief who stepped into Martin’s boots when his friend and colleague of 15 years retired. Martin first waded into the smoke and singe of fire service as a paid-call firefighter in Morgan Hill. That’s where his family had moved in 1965 from Bangor, Maine when he was kindergarten
age. He played basketball and football at Live Oak High School and was graduated in 1980. The young Martin then enrolled at Gavilan Community College, but by 1982 he was the married father of a baby boy and bagging groceries at Nob Hill Foods in Morgan Hill to make ends meet while managing a 16-unit apartment building for free rent. He wanted something better for his young family and a firefighter friend suggested he try pulling on some big boots and a pair of suspenders and going along for a few rides. And that’s just what he did. “I wanted to see if I liked it before I committed to (firefighter) school,” Martin said recently. “I loved it. I felt it was a way to get somewhere fairly quickly for my family.” He did ride-alongs and spent nights at the Morgan Hill fire station so he could respond to late calls. At the same time he commuted to Mission College to study fire suppression and prevention. And all the while he worked full time at Nob Hill Foods and managed the apartments. It’s a period of his life he remembers as one of “a lot of responsibilities.” By 1984, he’d hired on with the Hollister Fire Department and a year later was offered jobs with the Gilroy and San Jose departments. He picked Gilroy, because, “I am kind of a smaller town guy, it’s my nature,” said the father of two and stepfather of two. He still heads east every November to visit family, hunt and spend time in his remote Maine cabin not too far from his sister’s home in the house his father, who worked in radio and TV, built. Martin, soon to be 56, was with Gilroy through five chiefs and rose from firefighter to division chief, the second highest rank. On retirement he was the last person left who could boast he started when firefighters still stood on the tail boards of engines racing to blazes and communicated with the driver by horn–one blast meant stop, two meant go. Today, everyone rides inside the cabs of trucks built for all occasions and crews are wired with communications devices that can send real time medical data via cyberspace to doctors waiting in hospitals for accident and medical emergency victims. Martin also was one of the few left who could recall a Gilroy department with no paramedics, only two fire stations– the city is planning its fourth–and
TRUE CALLING Colin Martin was bagging groceries and managing apartments before he discovered his passion—a career in firefighting that would last more than three decades. increase largely due to medical responses. And with that increase came the heightened exposure over a career spanning decades to difficult situations and scenes, the kind that, due to the recognition of their potential mental health ramifications, nowadays can bring psychological counseling. “I have driven past places and thought of a call that happened there and never mentioned anything to my wife,” Martin said. “We are there to help fix problems but sometimes we can’t. We go back to our houses with the adrenalin and try to unwind or

eat dinner and get ready for the next day. You just kind of suck it up (but) it’s cumulative.” Martin recalled watching Gilroy paramedic/firefighters work furiously but ultimately without success to revive a man who had collapsed in his bedroom with a heart attack. “I knew I had to take the long walk downstairs to a family in the living room and tell them what I had to tell them, and that is a very long walk,” Martin said. “It’s horrible to have to be the bearer of that news. I don’t forget those.” But Martin, a very spiritual man, also has experienced the deep satisfaction and joy that come with the job, as when someone stops by the fire station to thank him and his colleagues, or when, as he put it, “I have held a new baby in my hands.” All things considered, Martin said, “The career has been good, it has been great, and I would not trade it for anything.”

Bally blaze: 100 acres scorched, $1 million cost Fire Update, 1 has sent out the maximum amount of resources that are allowed to go,” Chief Anderson said. “At the height of the event, we had 296 personnel on the scene.” Along with Cal Fire, crews of firefighters came from as far as Santa Barbara and Alameda counties and as near as Santa Clara and Santa Cruz. Anderson noted that the Filice family allowed their property on Santa Teresa and Ballybunion to be used as a helicopter base and an equipment staging area at no charge. Firefighters at the GFD had to tighten their belts, having only had a noontime meal on the Sunday of the fire until they were able to be supplied to eat 12 hours later. The residents at Ballybunion Court were on the job. They baked cookies and fed those off to and back from the fire line on Eagle Ridge.
Firefighters laid six miles of hose lines; Cal Fire helicopters dropped over 100,000 gallons of water on the fire, one mobile kitchen unit served over 40 agencies. The work isn’t done yet. “We’ve moved into the restoration phase,” Chief Anderson said. “Once the fire is out, Cal Fire comes in and attempts to erase all of the fire damage but also the things we did to control the fire.” The GFD needs to collect 30,000 feet of fire hose to uncouple, wash, dry and reroll in time for the next emergency. A note from neighbor Lois Thorne, of Mesa Ranch summed up the public’s response. “Kudos to all the firefighters that put out the fire behind Eagle Ridge. I don’t know how much they make, but it isn’t enough!! Thanks so much.”
BLACKISH No homes were damaged and no lives lost thanks to persistent and quick action from Gilroy
firefighters and those who joined from all over the state to fight a weeklong blaze over Eagle Ridge.

How do you keep them down on the farm? MILLENNIALS WANT TO LEAVE GILROY, BUT RETURN TO START FAMILIES By Bryce Stoepfel

come back later. They said they appreciate the quiet, small-town vibe. They want to be close to mom and dad and they want a safe place for their kids. “I would come back to raise my kids here,” said Ronné Davis, 18. “It’s a great place to raise your family.” They also noted opportunities in the Silicon Valley for tech savvy millennials. Chavez said he and some of his friends were offered good paying jobs in the tech industry right out of high school. The benefits of the University of California instate tuition benefits is another benefit. “There are opportunities to be had here, so I can see why someone who’s in a certain field will do well here,” said Chavez, who wants to transfer to Johns Hopkins School of Medicine in Baltimore. “You have to see what you want to do and if you’re into computer science,

Gilroy officials have made a priority of keeping millennials– people in their 20s and 30s–in town after they graduate from college. The challenge is daunting, according to a survey of Gavilan students, who say the city is boring, too expensive and doesn’t have adequate housing. “The housing is way too expensive for anyone who just graduates,” said Zack Arcelo, an 18-year old political science major from Gilroy. “I’m not sure exactly where I’m going to go, but it probably won’t be here.” Adam Lopez,18, Leslie Aparicio,18, and Daniel Chavez,19, are all part of Gavilan’s student government, who have big ambitions to make a mark in the world, but they all plan to leave here as soon as they can. “I’m definitely going to the East Coast. I’m sick of Gilroy and I’m sick of California,” Chavez said. “I want to grow as a person, it’s so small here and there’s not much to do. I can’t extend my career here. I can’t be who I want to be here. They just don’t offer that,” Aparicio said. Millennials are tarred and feathered for being feckless free spirits, who spend all their time glued to their phones, too busy on Instagram to take anything seriously. In fact, they make less money on average than the Baby Boomer generation. They take fewer vacations. Gone are most pension plans and home ownership, once the bedrock ideal of the American Dream, seems impossible for many.
“I have friends who moved out who wanted to come back to Gilroy,” Chavez said. “They can’t afford to live here anymore. A few years ago I knew some people who rented a house on Mantelli here so they could go to Gavilan. There were eight of them but then they could do it. Now it’s too expensive.” Gavilan Student President Leslie Aparicio said students are being priced out of Gilroy. “The rise in real estate costs from the people moving in has forced lower-income people to struggle,” she said “It’s an agricultural community, so there aren’t many jobs locally. There’s a lot of people coming here from Silicon Valley who can’t live there. It's really affecting the smaller families who can’t afford to pay that kind of rent. It makes everything go up.” Gilroy’s nightlife offerings are paltry, they said. “I never go out in Gilroy; there is nothing to do here,” Aparicio said. “I had friends from Oregon come over last weekend and I took them to Santa Cruz,” Chavez said. “I took them to the hiking trail on Highway 152, but there’s nothing to show them in Gilroy.” Some are drawn north to San Jose or San Francisco. “The cost of living is ridiculous,” said Mia Gutierrez, 21. “The Bay Area is ridiculously expensive but I would rather pay more money to live in the San Francisco area than here. The things here in Gilroy and Hollister aren’t worth the cost of rent. I think the Bay Area would be more worth it.” “A lot of people think it’s sad how excited people get here when a new restaurant opens because that’s how boring the city is,” added Jenna Bogie, 21. There’s some good news out there. Many of them think they’ll

More and more millennials are staying home and with the rising cost of rent the nest may get cramped. According to the real estate website Abodo.com,
nearly a third of millennials in San Jose and San Francisco live at home. “I have two other sisters who are 30 and 28 who are living at home,” Bogie said. “That’s how expensive it is, where adults need to live at home with their parents as long as possible because of how expensive it is.”

GILROY RUNS PAST LO IN 2ND HALF
ON DECK
Cheeto Barrera Sports Editor
gilroy—Quarterback Jonathan Singleton threw for 306 yards and three touchdowns. Receiver Jaime Martinez caught 11 passes for 225 yards and two touchdowns. It was an incredible night for both players against Gilroy, but it wasn’t enough. The Mustangs amassed 582 yards of total offense as they defeated Live Oak 47-28 Sept. 8. It was the first time in
six years that Gilroy has bested Live Oak and the first time since 2008 that Gilroy has started a season 3-0. “It sounds good to me,” said runningback Joe Barnes. “Honestly I thought it was longer than that.” The Acorns fall to 1-2 despite taking a 21-12 lead in the second quarter. Gilroy, however, scored 28 straight points between the end of the first half and into the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach. “It feels good. I’m at a loss for words right now,” said coach Jubenal Rodriguez. “We put in a lot of work since I got hired in Jan. 2015. It feels real good but we’re not done yet.” The Mustangs are
showing no signs of slowing down having come out against tough teams each of the three weeks, took a few lumps for a half but made the adjustments to put the team over the top. “I love my coaching staff and our strength is going in at halftime and making adjustments and that is what we did,” said coach Jubenal Rodriguez. In the second half, Live Oak showed it could move the ball, but wasn’t able to convert the long drives into points. A 12-play drive in the third quarter stalled inside of Gilroy territory after recorded a sack that cost the Acorns 17 yards. Meanwhile, Live Oak couldn’t stop Gilroy’s offense. Midway through the
second quarter, Martinez pulled down an interception. It was the last time of the night the defense put a halt to Gilroy’s attack. The Mustangs broke through with the big play, scoring on six plays of more than 20 yards and three plays of more than 50 yards. Runningback Joe Barnes rushed for 244 yards and three touchdowns and caught a pass that went for a 79-yard touchdown. Quarterback Jon Jon Castro threw for 277 yards and four touchdowns, two of which went to tight end Andrew Castro. Andrew only caught two passes on the night, one for a 20-yard TD and the other for a 59-yard score. Receiver Max Pierce caught for passes for 115 yards and a touchdown.
His shortest reception on the night went for 15 yards. Pierce’s touchdown reception went for 25 yards. Gilroy’s shortest touchdown of the night came right after its longest touchdown of the night thanks to a little luck on the kickoff. It started with one of the best punts to be executed deep in an opponent’s zone. Christian Guary hit a little pooch kick that put Gilroy on its own 1 yard line, but the defense couldn’t get a stop. Barnes needed four carries to go 99 yards with his final rush going for 86 yards for a 33-21 lead. Gilroy then kicked off ➝ Rolling, 18

Gilroy holds tough vs Hawks LATE RALLIES HELP TO PUSH MUSTANGS TO SWEEP ANZAR Cheeto Barrera Sports Editor
After a rough match against Sobrato on Sept. 5, Gilroy responded in a big way by sweeping Anzar in straight sets on Sept. 7. That led to a big effort for Gilroy at the Wildcatz Tournament in Watsonville where the Mustangs went 3-1 for the weekend. Against Anzar, Margo Clonts had 11 kills to lead the Mustangs who got off to slow starts against the Hawks in all three sets but
saw a huge explosion to run away with the match. “It’s always at the beginning of the game that they try to figure out what the speed of their game is going to be, unfortunately, games like Sobrato they came out with a slow pace and couldn’t keep up with Sobrato,” said coach Baillie Carpenter. “Fortunately today, they decided that they wanted to work and put in the effort and it paid off for them. That’s something were trying to work on is keeping the drive going through out the entire game.” Gilroy was trailing 15-11 midway through the first set after going into an 8-1
hole to start things off. But Gilroy chipped away at the deficit, eventually tying the game at 16-all and again at 18-all when the Mustangs went on a strong run to end the first set. Gilroy outscored Anzar 14-5 after going down by four midway through. The Hawks kept up the pressure to start the second set, but the serving of Maggie Brinkman was just too much. Brinkman rattled off 13 consecutive service points, including three aces as Gilroy went on a 14-0 scoring run. Carpenter said it was ➝ Mustangs, 17

CHS girls golf CHS Girls Varsity golf is now 2-0 with a win over Alisal. With the latest match, facing crazy weather, the ladies were able to pull through with a victory of 38 strokes under Alisal High School. The Lady Cougars face league rivals North Monterey County on Wednesday at Nicklaus Club in Monterey. Team Co-Captain Sam Vogel has medal in both matches. Gavilan volleyball The Gavilan women’s volleyball team is off to a fast start of the season, improving to 5-1 overall thanks to wins over Shasta, Hartnell and Solano last week. The Rams’ only blemish this season came in a 3-1 loss to Santa Rosa on Sept. 8, but still they have only dropped four sets total out of six matches. The Rams took the opening set against Santa Rosa 25-23, but couldn’t hang on to
take the match and fell in straight sets, 25-14, 25-22, 25-18. Kaitlyn Viray led the team with eight kills followed by Katia Dizon with five. Viray led the team with 23 kids followed by Mikeila Banda with 18 and Christa Arroyo with 15. In the second half of a doubleheader that night, Gavilan swept past Shasta 25-19, 25-18, 25-18. Sarah Weiby had 10 kills with Viray adding seven. Arroyo led the team with 12 digs and 21 assists. The next day, Gavilan took care of business quickly at Delta College, smashing past Hartnell in straight sets 25-9, 25-21, 25-17. Weiby had 10 kills with Jenna Clonts and Viray adding five each. Dizon added 13 kids with Arroyo recording 20 assists and 10 digs. Later that afternoon, Gavilan needed four sets to get past Solano and it was a dog fight the whole way. After Solano won the opener 25-20, Gavilan needed extra frames to dispatch Solano in the next two sets, eventually winning 28-26, 29-27. In the third set, Gavilan took care of business in regulation, but still was pushed to the limit with a 25-23 win. Viray had an outstanding 20 kills to lead the team, followed by Weiby with nine and Haley Leifheit with six. Mikeila Banda had 22 digs and Arroyo had 52 assists. Gavilan faced off against Monterey Peninsula College on Wednesday, but results were not available by presstime. The Rams will next travel to West Valley on Sept. 20. Christopher football Christopher went down early to Carmel 6-0 in the first quarter on Saturday, but the game quickly turned into a rout as the Cougars won 41-14. Christopher improves to 3-0, already matching its win total from the past two years combined. Ben Sanford threw for 331 yards and three touchdowns against three interceptions as
the Cougars outscored the Padres 41-8 in the final three quarters. Jason Scirgioni had 165 yards receiving and three touchdowns. Joseph Cupp added 75 yards and a TD. Connor O’Callaghan added a 20-yard touchdown pass. Tyler Davis set up Christopher for a balanced day with 111 yards rushing with a touchdown. Christopher and Carmel were tied 14-all at the half but the Cougars kept pushing. The Cougars came out of the break scoring 13 in the third quarter and two more touchdowns in the fourth quarter. Christopher will next host Woodside on Friday night. The Wildcats are 0-3 this season after dropping close games to Capuchino and Leigh while getting blown out by Carlmont. Woodside is a passheavy team with quarterback Joseph King averaging 250 yards per game. He can be a dual threat, also rushing for 155 yards to lead the team in that category. King has two primary targets with Derek Smith catching 14 passes for 245 yards and three touchdowns. Christopher will also have to keep an eye on Luis Robles and Andres Villareal who have been targeted 18 times and have combined for 341 yards in receiving. Christopher will have to control the clock against a team that is averaging 23 points per game. Conversely, the defense is giving up 38 points per game, so there will be a real chance for Christopher to roll into league play 4-0 and looking at a real chance to be undefeated heading into Gilroy on Oct. 6. But the Cougars know they have to set a tone against Woodside and can’t take the Wildcats lightly. And Christopher will need to stay focused these next three games mainly because despite their next three opponents holding a combined 1-8 record through three weeks, thinking too much about Gilroy could put a wrench into things.

Christopher split a pair of matches last week, taking down North Salinas in four but fell to Carmel in four on Sept. 6 and 7, respectively. The Cougars then opened Gabilan Division play with a three-set loss to Notre Dame-Salinas on Tuesday. Christopher stands at 5-7 overall (0-1 in league play) following the threematch stretch. Against North Salinas, Christopher jumped out to a two-set lead after winning 25-14, 25-23. The Vikings came back in the third, edging out Christopher 25-23, but it was as close to winning the match as they would come. Christopher took care of business in the fourth set, winning 25-16. Christopher came back against Carmel the next night and got off to a fast start, winning 25-18. But the Cougars weren’t able to keep the momentum going, falling 25-16 in the second set and then dropped sets two and three 25-20. Christopher fell in straight sets 25-17, 25-19, 25-10. The Cougars will next play San Benito Thursday at 6:30 p.m.
GHS surfs past Monterey The Lady Mustangs were victorious 25-10 over Monterey on Sept. 7. Erika Cates led all scorers in the pool with seven goals on nine shots. She was followed by fellow senior KK Brolin with five goals and Ellie Pickford with five. Dillania Barnett walked away with four goals, but the defensive game of Barnett and senior Ashley Harding was intense. In the cage for the Mustangs was Cheyenne Cates and Gianna Vanni. Cates came away with eight saves on 12 with two assists.
Gilroy VB goes 3-1 at tourney ➝ Mustangs, from 16 great to see the serving come around against Anzar and produce as well as it did. “We’ve been having problems with our serving. Out of habit, they’ll serve a couple of good ones or they’ll miss when we need it toward the end of games or in the middle of a comeback,” Carpenter said. “So we’re just working on serving consistently.” The Mustangs were trailing 6-2 at the start of the run and finished leading 16-7 when Anzar finally broke the streak. The Hawks showed some life at the end of the second set actually pulling near even with Gilroy in the game’s final 16 points. Anzar was outscored 9-7 before Gilroy finally put the game to bed. In the third set, it was much of the same with Anzar scrimping and scrapping in the early going and putting Gilroy on its heels to kick things off. The Mustangs were down 11-10 when
another massive run put the set and the match out of reach. Gilroy went on a 10-0 scoring run to go up 20-11 and just outlasted Anzar. Watsonville Tournament At the Wildcatz Tournament in Watzonville, Gilroy got off to a fast start, downing Pacific Collegate in straight sets, 25-14, 25-10. Brinkman had six kills with Clonts adding five. Amaya Raoof had four kills. That set up Gilroy against Everett Alvarez as the Mustangs battled but fell in three sets. Alvarez took the first set 25-12 but Gilroy battled back to take the second 25-13. Momentum, however, didn’t stay with the Mustangs as Alvarez held on for a 15-12 win. Meghan Popma led the team with six kills followed by Brinkman with four. Raoof had 11 assists and Ella Blank and Popma had two aces. After the loss, Gilroy got back to its winning ways by defeating hots Watsonville in straight sets 25-23, 25-17. Clonts had a big match with nine kills
in two sets with an ace added in. Raoof added 12 assists. Gilroy closed out the tournament with a tough win over York. Gilroy jumped out quickly on York earning a 25-15 win to kick things off. York, however, answered in the second with a 25-21 victory setting up a decisive third set. There Gilroy rallied to put things away quickly, winning 15-9. Brinkman had six kills and Clonts added five to take the win. Popma added two aces in the victory. League play The tournament led right into league play for Gilroy who battled Monterey right down to the end, but fell short in a 3-2 loss to open Pacific Division action. Gilroy fell 24-26, 11-25, 25-21, 25-20, 10-15 as the Mustangs’s rally came up just short. The Mustangs now sit at 6-5 overall and 0-1 in league play. Gilroy will try to regroup against Pajaro Valley on Thursday with first serve scheduled for 6:30 p.m. The Mustangs will remain at home on Sept. 21 hosting North Salinas at 6:30 p.m.

COUGARS ON 3 GAME WINNING STREAK THANKS TO AN AGGRESSIVE OFFENSE, DEFENSE Cheeto Barrera

Gilroy survives early Acorn onslaught to pull away late Robert Eliason
Christopher is off to a hot start to the season, winners of three in a row heading into play on Wednesday. The Cougars defeated San Benito 1-0 on Sept. 6 and followed that with a 3-1 win over Live Oak on Sept. 7 thanks to the Moreno sisters and some very aggressive offense. Christopher sits at 4-2 overall. A match against Gilroy on Monday had to be suspended because of lightning. The Cougars jumped out to a great start against Live Oak, putting six shots on goal in less than two minutes when Amber Moreno found the back of the cage for a quick 1-0 lead. “We’ve been focusing on keeping and increasing our level of play,” said Cougar coach Dani Hemeon. “So it was exciting to see us get off to such a strong start. Since we started we’ve been saying keep improving every game and we definitely did that. It was fun to watch.” But Live Oak showed some poise despite being a young team and responded right back. Nicole Bonino was able to sneak one past the keeper on a shot that was initially stopped, but the ball kept rolling toward the cage. So in the first five minutes of the game, the score sat at 1-1. After the early

barrage, things quieted down a little bit on both sides, but Christopher kept the pressure on and kept forcing Live Oak’s defense to come up with plays. Meanwhile, the Acorn offense had a hard time getting much pressure into the Cougar zone as the Christopher defense was solid the entire game outside of the early counter attack. The score stayed tied until the 25th minute when Madison Moreno found the back of the cage to put the Cougars up 2-1 at the half. A defensive breakdown by Live Oak left the cage exposed and Madison converted the easy try. “We’ve been focusing stepping up outside the circle and just get them before they take shots and they took that to heart today,” Hemeon said. “The did well and I was really proud.” Madison gave Christopher some
insurance in the 42nd minute for the final margin. Against San Benito, Amber scored the only goal of the day to give Christopher a 1-0 lead. After suffering losses to Mitty and Willow Glen to kick off the season, Christopher has now rolled off wins against Branham, San Benito and Live Oak. The Moreno sisters have scored all the goals so far for Christopher, but Hemeon gave the credit to the entire attacking front for opening up opportunities. “We have kind of a core group of girls with the Morenos and Julie Davis in the center and Jordan Anaya but we’re working well as a team,” Hemeon said. “Yes those two are leading the offense but the team game right now is huge and that’s the way we’ve been successful.” Christopher will next travel to Notre Dame on Sept. 21 with the start scheduled for 4 p.m.
➝ Rolling, from 16
short and the ball fell into the Mustangs’ arms and took over on the Live Oak 39 yard line. Eight plays and two false starts later, Barnes took the ball four yards on fourth down to put Gilroy up 40-21. The Acorns finally had an answer on its next series thanks to Singleton hitting Martinez for a 48-yard touchdown pass to pull Live Oak to within 12 with 7:16 to play. But Gilroy needed just three plays to get back to a three-score lead with the Castros teaming up for a 59-yard strike for the final margin. Andrew found himself wide open on top of the defense and it was just a matter of getting the ball into his hands and letting him run with it. “I knew he was going to catch it, we just had to get it to him,” Rodriguez said. “He’s a sure catch kid. I’m real proud of these boys and real proud of this coaching staff.” The Acorns’ final drive of the night ended with an interception and Gilroy took knees to finish off the game. In the first half, Live
Oak had a glimmer of hope despite giving up an early touchdown to Barnes. After exchanging turnovers, Live Oak needed just five plays to go 58 yards as Singleton found Guary in the endzone for a 17-yard TD pass to take a 7-6 lead. Gilroy’s next three drives ended with out scores, including Martinez pulling down an interception in the second quarter. Live Oak padded its lead on the ensuing series needing one snap to go 49 yards with Singleton hitting Martinez for a 49-yard strike. “Their quarterback was scrambling in the first half and we couldn’t stop it really,” Rodriguez said. “We made some adjustments up front, changed some technique and it worked.” Gilroy responded with a 79-yard screen pass to Barnes who broke a tackle and was off to the races, pulling the Mustangs to within two at 14-12. But Live Oak’s offense had an answer as the Acorns went 53 yards on seven plays with Singleton punching the
ball in from one yard out to take a 21-12 lead. Gilroy will now host Harbor in its final nonleague tuneup of the season. Harbor will be tough despite its 1-2 overall record, having suffered tough losses to two really good teams in Clear Lake and Gunn. Harbor opened the season with a win over Yerba Buena, but then got rolled 54-12 to Clear Lake of Lakeport and 52-20 to Gunn of Palo Alto. Gilroy will have to key on quarterback Bailey Schantz who does a little of everything for Harbor. Schantz leads the team in rushing with 606 yards through three games and has thrown for 226 yards with a touchdown against four interceptions. In the passing game, he has a mixture of targets to throw to, but his bread and butter is his legs. No one else on the team has even broken 30 yards on the ground, so the Mustang defense will need to know where he is at all times. Kickoff for Friday’s game is at 7:30 p.m. for homecoming.
