Trail riders eye Diablo property By CAMAS FRANK OF EQUINE ENTHUSIAST
When the Atascadero Horsemen’s Club was established in 1964 as a family riding club the open spaces available for public use were a good deal different from today. Founding members might not have been thinking, for example, that 12,000 some acres of ranch land surrounding a cove near Point San Luis would become the high security reserve of a utility company for a nuclear power plant. Beginning with construction in 1968, Pacific Gas and Electric Co.’s Diablo Canyon Power Plant changed the economic and physical landscape of the San Luis Obispo County. After five decades locals are wondering how it might change again, and the club’s charter mission, to promote trails for horseback riding, to provide programs of interest to its members and to participate in related community services, merges Nicky with the discussion at hand. In a recent report for the group, past club president, and member since 1990, Kathy Redden explained taking part in workshops with the Diablo Canyon Decommissioning Engagement Panel on Aug. 17 and 18. Set in Pismo Beach, to the south of the plant itself, the workshops dealt with proposals for the tracts of land connecting Wild Cherry Canyon and butting up to Montana De Oro State Park (MDO) to the north. Redden herself also serves as equestrian liaison for the Central Coast Concerned Mountain Bikers group — as a side note, she adds, that unlike elsewhere the group’s get along rather well here — and took part in multiple presentations to the panel which is tasked with summarizing the public’s wishes for PG&E and the California Public Utilities Commision. “The first presentation was with Kathy Longacre and Kathleen Phelps. Our push was for having the property (around 12,000 acres)

be accessible by the public, with a coastal trail and inland trail, at least one backcountry camp, and a drive-in campground including horse camping to be potentially located at Wild Cherry Canyon,” she wrote, “We’d like to see the land added to MDO, which would make MDO the crown jewel and the largest park in the State Parks system. This was also the first public presentation of the Trail
from what the groups were asking. State Parks, for their part already have several access points with PG&E currently and members of the public use the existing infrastructure to park and walk in on designated days and times. “I also participated in CCCMB’s presentation along with Christie O’Hara. CCMB’s presentation was focused on their expertise in building and
Contributed photo Alliance of SLO County, which was founded in 2016 by non-motorized trail user groups collaborating and advocating for trails. Member organizations include AHC, CCCMB, BCHC, SLOPOST, CMA, ECOSLO, Ride Nipomo, California Native Plants Society and SLO Trail Runners. The Trail Alliance was well received by the Engagement Panel members, who praised us for representing such a large and varied number of user groups. It was very fulfilling, as the three of us are co-founders of the Trail Alliance.” On the phone, Redden added that pretty much boils down to anyone who uses a dirt path in their recreational activities benefiting
maintaining trails throughout SLO County, and they pledged 15,000 hours for building trails on Diablo lands,” Redden typed with an exclamation point. “Over the course of the two days, several of us listened to other presentations and the focus by everyone was opening the land for public benefit, with protection for cultural resources, wildlife and native plants.” She’s pragmatic however, in noting that money will be the largest concern for groups that which to obtain the property solely for public use. Other proposals included a developer with designs to build a 6,000 person community in the Canyon.
“This is still a very long process — the Panel will be meeting at least into 2019 if not longer. How the property could come into public ownership is the largest question: fully or partially donated by PG&E, or through bond measures, or through funding partners such as was done with the Land Conservancy and the purchase of the Pismo Preserve, and any combination,” she told the club, however adding separately that she felt reaction from panel members broadly reflected the public’s support for open space. The 11-member panel is comprised of residents from San Luis Obispo community who were selected by local officials to give a broad sampling of interest groups and viewpoints. The panel holds monthly meetings in San Luis Obispo at the County Government building on the last Wednesday of each month and held the special workshops to gather additional information in August and September. Members of the public are able to make their voices heard at the regular meetings but are limited to three-minutes. While it’s true, as Redden noted that the group will be meeting for some time throughout the decommissioning process, they are on a deadline to report to the CPUC at the end of the year. She encourages anyone with an interest in what happens on the property to fill out the Public Comment Form online at: www. pge.com/en_US/safety/how-thesystem-works/diablo-canyonpower-plant/diablo-canyonpower-plant/engagement-panel. “I think the response has been overwhelmingly in favor both from the panel and the public in favor of well placed and well designed public trails, “ she said. “So we hope the panel with tell that to the [CPUC].

were up slightly this year. “We had a fantastic fair,” he said. “The weather was perfect. Attendance was perfect. We continue to provide amazing entertainment value with all the things we provide.” Kegebein praised the

Gonzales youth takes 1st in mutton busting, stick horse race Jayden Octavio Villegas wins in first rodeo appearance
BY SAMANTHA BENGTSON OF EQUINE ENTHUSIAST
GONZALES — Gonzales youth Jayden Octavio Villegas participated in this year’s California Rodeo Salinas and won the stick horse race and mutton busting events. Villegas, 6, took part in the stick horse race on Thursday, July 19, and tied with another participant. On Friday, July 20, he switched gears and was a contestant in the mutton busting event, where he earned second place. Villegas, along with his mother Marisol and father Gerardo, returned to the Rodeo on Sunday, July 22, for the finals, in which Villegas won the mutton busting event. This was his first time
participating in either events. “We heard him say that he was nervous,” Marisol said. “He plays sports like soccer and is a very active boy, but he never says ‘Oh, I’m nervous.’ When we were there, he says ‘I’m nervous.’” According to Marisol, Villegas saw the mutton busting event last year and was asking about how the children ride the sheep. Gerardo found out information about the event and registered Villegas in the event. At the California Rodeo Salinas, contestants for the mutton busting event are chosen by raffle and Villegas was selected. “We have been looking for other fairs that do the mutton busting,” Marisol said. “We found out that Paso Robles does one, so hopefully
NUTRA-GLO
we can make it out there.” The Villegas family has been going to the rodeo for years, usually going on Wednesday for the Professional Bull Riding and on Friday. “A lot of our family members were there, so I think that’s what encouraged him as well,” Marisol said. “Our friends were asking us when he was going to compete, and then family members showed
up. It was a great experience and for ourselves as well.” Villegas showed some concern over the amount of people in the crowd on Wednesday, July 18, and asked his mother if the same number of people were going to be there for the mutton busting event. Marisol told her son to just worry about the sheep and not about the amount of people there watching.

Barrel racing is an exciting sport BY METRO CREATIVE Sports fans and athletes have a plethora of sports to enjoy in this country and around the world, and those options include equestrian events. Equestrian sports have a deeprooted history and have inspired some avid fans, including those enamored with the sport of barrel racing. Barrel racing can be an entertaining experience for spectators and a rewarding one for riders. The goal of the barrel race is to complete a perfect pattern in the least amount of time, so the rider who completes the pattern the fastest wins the competition. Published by News Media Corporation | FALL 2018
The pattern riders face is a complicated cloverleaf design. Riders can choose to enter the first barrel to the left or the right. They circle the barrel and proceed across to barrel number two, then finish out at the third barrel, where they will complete the pattern and exit the course. The approach to the first barrel should be carefully timed and executed to set the stage for the rest of the course. Barrel racing is most popular in the western and southern areas of the United States and some parts of Canada. To learn more about a particular racing circuit or the sport of barrel racing, visit www.wpra.com.
SALINAS — A sold-out crowd of 10,387 witnessed a night of great bull rides at the Salinas Sports Complex on July 18 during their stop on the Professional Bull Riders (PBR) Touring Pro Division Tour as Silvano Alves from Brazil came out on top. Presented by Salinas Valley Ford, the PBR continues to be one of the most popular events held during Big Week, selling out for the fourth consecutive year. Three-time world champion Alves earned the championship belt buckle with a score of 174 on two bulls, winning the final round with an 89 on Formula 1 Juice owned by Julio Moreno Bucking Bulls. Second place went to Chase Outlaw of Hamburg, Ark., with a total score of 171 on two bulls, and third place went to Stetson Lewis of Alamogordo, N.M., with a total score of 170 on two bulls.

Trevor Keith now leading SLO County Planning & Building Department BY CAMAS FRANK OF EQUINE ENTHUSIAST
The County of San Luis Obispo Board of Supervisors unanimously selected someone from within the ranks, SLO County employee of 11 years, Trevor Keith as their new Planning and Building Director in July. “This is a critical time in our County’s history and I look forward to working with an exceptional department of professionals in the Planning and Building Department to serve our County’s residents,” Keith said at the announcement. Starting the gig Aug. 8, he’s been on the go ever since and his first big agenda item went before the Board on Sept. 11. While some may be tempted to think of the department as simply the agency which doles out building permits and conducts inspections in development, there’s a lot more on Keith’s plate including a $19 million budget and responsibility for land use planning and resource management. With the slated closure of the economic engine that is Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant and a consistent lack of affordable housing for workers in most local industries, agriculture is just one piece of the puzzle he’s got to consider. Keith filled out a brief questionnaire to introduce himself to our readers on Sept. 12. Q: you
Personally, what draws to County government?
A: I had the opportunity to work for the SLO County Planning and Building Department as an intern while completing my undergraduate degree in Ecology at Cal Poly. It was a compelling experience, as it allowed me to witness first-hand the impact local government, specifically at the county level, can have in our communities. I spent many years working as an environmental consultant in many jurisdictions throughout California and realized that I would prefer to work in my

Photo courtesy San Luis Obispo County Administrative Office own community and be a part of local land use planning and building. Q: Any changes you plan to effect in how the department is run? A: As a public-facing department, excellent customer service is a top priority as well as enhancing consistency and transparency. From an internal and external perspective, I will be listening to feedback and meeting with staff and community members to understand and address their needs and identify ways in which we can improve the department and better serve the community. Q: Planning and Building covers a lot of ground. Any particular challenges or balancing act between housing/economic development and existing agriculture? A: The Planning and Building Department is responsible for evaluating several complex matters
with development and existing agriculture. Therefore, it is the goal of the department to provide the Board of Supervisors with the best information and analysis possible on all matters before them for their consideration and action. San Luis Obispo County is a wonderful place to live, but also an expensive area for many when it comes to housing. Through research and analysis, the department has been directed to develop policies regarding Accessory Dwelling Units, Agriculture Working Housing and Tiny Homes to help address some of the needs for options of different housing types. Additionally, in order to provide guidance on managing the impact of Diablo Canyon’s closure in our community’s best interests, I was selected as one of 11 members serving on the Diablo Canyon Decommissioning Panel. Together, we are reviewing information
to provide input on behalf of the community to PG&E on their plans for the land, facilities and waste in preparation for closure. I encourage the public to get involved in this process. Q: Any particular challenges for the Planning dept in regulating the marijuana industry compared to other agricultural commodities? A: We are focused on creating and enforcing the cannabis ordinance in our county that will pave the way for a new industry and maintain a safe and healthy community for residents. Cannabis legislation is in the very early stages at the state level and we are still learning a lot about this new industry. We are working with the industry and public to make sure we understand the needs and to ensure all parties are heard and the laws are understood.

Pregnant Mare Rescue in need of donations
APTOS — A sanctuary for pregnant mares is in need of donations to keep the barn doors open. According to founder Lynn Hummer, unpredictable vet bills and hay costs have dwindled the organization’s coffers. “It can be nerve-racking as horses unexpectedly return and others get into a bit of medical trouble,” she wrote in an email to supporters. “You can blow through thousands of dollars in the blink of an eye.” The organization provides a place for
pregnant mares to find temporary sanctuary while they foal and nurse their young. More than 100,000 American horses are sent across U.S. borders to slaughter each year, according to Pregnant Mare Rescue. A number of horses are also available for adoption, from ages 7 months to 7 years. For information or to donate, visit www.pregnantmarerescue.org/donate-more.html.
For 10 years, The Community Foundation San Luis Obispo County has congratulated a participant of the JB Dewar Tractor Restoration Project with the Alex Madonna Memorial Award in July. This year, Casey Havemann, an Atascadero High School Sophomore, received $2,000 for his participation, dedication to his project, leadership in the community, and passion for agriculture.

California Rodeo Salinas’ ‘Rodeo Responsibility’ video goes viral CONTRIBUTED ARTICLE

SALINAS — The California Rodeo Salinas is dedicated to preserving and promoting the traditions of the west and has produced a video about how it is the responsibility of rodeo fans and those who live the western lifestyle to create new fans by bringing them to rodeos. The video features longtime California Rodeo Salinas announcers Wayne Brooks and Will Rasmussen. Brooks urges people to buy a cowboy hat, put on some jeans and come experience the rodeo. Rasmussen says they want to entertain the attendees every minute that they are in the grandstands. They both want to see rodeo continue for the next
100 years, as does the 108-yearold California Rodeo Salinas. Rodeos are part of our heritage and culture; the Rodeo’s marketing manager Mandy Linquist says, “This video is bigger than the California Rodeo Salinas. It is meant to impact the entire industry and to give fans a way to help us preserve the traditions of the west.” As Brooks says in the video, “Carrying on the traditions of the American Cowboy is a big deal.” California Rodeo staff and volunteer board members have attended meetings with other rodeo committees to discuss the importance of bringing in new fans. Educating about the western lifestyle and the rodeo industry
is key especially since most of the population is not exposed to livestock or rural living. The video has reached over 125,000 people on Facebook and has more than 60,000 views so far. The video can be found on the California Rodeo’s Facebook page at www.facebook. com/CARodeoSalinas/ videos/10156097681322740/ and supporters of the California Rodeo Salinas, the rodeo industry and the western way of life are encouraged to view and share it to continue growing the “Rodeo Responsibility” movement and to use the hashtag #RodeoResponsibility.
