Hubbell Home Tour Sets New Record

By Ruth Lepper ~ the journal

record crowd turned out for the 30th annual James Hubbell Home Tour in Wynola. The Father’s Day event attracted nearly 800 people from near and far away, raising more than $30,000 for the Ilan-Lael Foundation. Marianne Gerdes, executive director of the foundation, called the event “a smashing success.” The nine-building compound serves as the headquarters for the foundation, an arts education organization founded by Hubbell. It also is the home of Anne and

Julian’s All-Stars Shine Bright By Ann Reilly Cole ~ the journal

t’s been 42 years since a baseball team from Julian has had a winning streak in the post-season Little League Baseball International Tournament. The Julian All-Stars, under the direction of head coach Jim Kaltenthaler and assistant coaches Andy Scholl and Tim Fletcher, headed into the last week of district tournament play with a record of two wins and one loss, with four games

between them and the District 58 title. The excitement was high as the Julian team prepared to face the three teams left standing in a double-elimination competition. The All-Star team of 13 boys and girls was selected from the 11- to 12-year-old division based on their individual ability to play, their understanding of the game, and most important, the quality of their character. They practiced three hours daily in the heat

of the day to prepare for the climate of Yucca Valley, where the district tournament was played. The kids became a united team by setting aside their egos, putting their hearts into the game, encouraging each other on the field, and focusing on improving skills and staying positive. “This group of kids have See Julian’s All-Stars continued on page 8

Julian Lions Club Ready to Help By Ann Reilly Cole ~ the journal

rive into just about any town in America and you’ll spot the ubiquitous logo announcing the Lions Club’s presence. Julian is no exception to this rule, where Lions Club members have quietly and steadfastly served the community since the mid-1950s. Lions work to address needs within the local community and beyond through sight and hearing programs, scholarships and youth programs, or serving in whatever way is needed. Backed by an international organization more than 1.35 million members strong, the local club is part of one of the most effective service clubs in the

world, and it’s open to anyone with a willingness to work together to make the world a better place. The simple slogan, “We serve,” defines a Lions Club member. Dedicated to helping prevent blindness and improving eye health, Lions provide exams, glasses, surgeries and more for people who would otherwise be unable to afford the care they need. The same goes for the hearing-impaired. As part of the club’s commitment to the future, they provide scholarships to local students as well as host a public speaking program designed to encourage youth to develop selfesteem and confidence. They support the Julian Fourth of July Parade with financial donations, and their annual Easter Egg Hunt is a

big hit with families. If you’ve been to a public event in Julian, a Lions Club member has likely served you. Hosting a barbecue booth is one of the ways that the JLC supports its charitable work. This September, the club will host a Music Fair and Horseshoe Tournament, a fun family event with music, games and food to raise funds for their ongoing programs. The club holds regular meetings on the second Thursday of the month and dinner meetings on the fourth Thursday. Meetings are held at 7 p.m., usually at Julian Town Hall, or when that’s not available, they meet at the American Legion hall or the Julian Woman’s Club building. In the coming year, a program will be initiated at meetings to bring

in professional speakers to make presentations and host demonstrations relevant to the community. Guests are welcome to attend a few meetings to get to know the organization and its values, and consider becoming a member. No skills or experience are necessary to join. Any man or woman who wants the satisfaction of making a difference in another’s life and would enjoy being part of a network of people who know how to lend a helping hand and get what needs to be done accomplished will feel right at home at the Julian Lions Club. To learn about the Julian Lions Club or to propose a guest speaker, call Eddie Kalish at 760-765-2242. n

StarFest Presents Celestial Show

ulian StarFest is famous for offering guests a spectacular view of the heavens from a location far from city lights — Menghini Winery. The event will be presented Aug. 8 to 11 by the San Diego Astronomy Association in cooperation with the community of Julian, and is expected to draw thousands of stargazers. One of the most popular StarFest activities is the free Saturday night Star Party from dusk to 10:30 p.m. Telescopes will be set up in the viewing area, and experts will be on hand to answer questions. Members of the public who arrive between 7 and 9 p.m. may participate at no charge. This year’s list of guest speakers includes John Garrett on Friday night, and Tim Parker, Dennis Freiden and nationally syndicated columnist Dennis Mammana on Saturday. Mammana will also present a Friday workshop called “Photographing the August Night Sky,” for an additional fee. Participants should bring and be familiar with a camera with manual focus that can be manually adjusted to take time exposures, with a solid tripod, and a remote control or cable release. In the afternoon, workshop guests will learn the basics of setting up their gear and shooting in complete darkness. After dark, they will have a chance to put their knowledge into practice. Visit the website for details and to pre-register. Telescope and accessory manufacturers, astronomical software developers, and other exhibitors of interest will be open Friday and Saturday. On Saturday, there will be a swap meet from 7 a.m. to noon and an opportunity drawing at 6 p.m.

Plans and Supplies Essential to Emergency Preparedness

ulian CERT and SDG&E have teamed up to offer information about preparing for an emergency. Emergencies may come in many forms, such as wildfires, storms, earthquakes, or school or work emergencies. We never know when and where the next emergency might hit, which is why being prepared is so essential. The two most important ways to be prepared are having a written plan, and stocking emergency supplies. Written Plan A written plan provides a systematic and repeatable approach to emergencies. Your plan should be tailored to meet your specific situation, such as preparing for elderly or disabled family members, children and pets. It should be reviewed and updated annually. When making a plan: • Identify two places for

the family to meet: a place outside your home, and a spot away from your neighborhood in case you can't return home. • Practice the plan with your family, including your children. • Review emergency plans at your workplace, your children's school or daycare center and other places where members of your family regularly spend time away from home. • Plan safe routes away from your home and business. Make sure your children are aware of the routes away from home. • Develop a plan for family pets and livestock, as evacuation shelters may not allow animals. • Designate a friend outside the area whom family members can call if separated. • Keep important documents in a safe-deposit box.

Emergency Supplies Here are some basic emergency supplies you should have on hand: • Three-day supply of bottled water (one gallon per person, per day). • A three-day supply of packaged, dried and canned food. • First aid kit and essential medicines. • Pet food and pet carrier. • Manual can opener. • Portable radio and flashlights with spare batteries in waterproof bags. • Extra set of car keys. • Cash and credit cards. • Special items for infants, elderly or disabled family members. Comprehensive checklists for home, work and vehicles are available at http://www.sdge. com/safety/emergencypreparedness. n

Protect Your Home Against Wildfires this Summer The San Diego Regional Fire Foundation offers steps homeowners can take to help protect their home against wildfires. • Make sure firefighters can find you, and that they can get their equipment onto your property so they can defend your home against wildfires. Post an address sign at the junction of your driveway and the public road, and then make sure a fire truck can fit on your driveway. The truck needs at least 13 ½ feet of vertical clearance and 12 feet of horizontal clearance. • Dry grass is where most wildfires start. It ignites easily and quickly carries fire to places where the flames can cause damage to a home. To reduce the risk of having a grass fire on your property, cut the grass to a height of four inches. It should be mowed at least 30 feet around the home, along the roadside and along the driveway. Also rake dry tree needles and

leaves from beneath decks and exterior stairways. Tree needles and dry leaves ignite as easily as dry grass, and can be dangerous if they are burning someplace where they can’t easily be seen or extinguished. • Keep it green around your home. If plants are green, they are generally healthy and their leaves have plenty of water, which greatly reduces the chance that the plants will ignite easily or burn. • Move firewood and lumber piles at least 30 feet from the house during the summer. Better yet, put firewood and lumber inside an enclosed shed. Simply put, keep all flammable material away from your home. Guard Against Embers During a wildfire, the air is full of embers — little bits of burning wood, leaves, tree needles and stalks of grass — that can land on or around your home and cause trouble. Embers are the No. 1 cause of

home destruction in wildfires. It isn’t the big flames ripping through a forest. It is the little stuff. Embers land in rain gutters that are full of dry tree needles and leaves. They float inside the house through attic vents. They drift into open carports and into firewood and lumber piles. Embers are hot, and when they land on something that will burn, they will cause a fire. Fortunately, there are many ways to protect your home against ember-caused fires. Here are three things that are easy to do: • Clean dry needles and leaves and other flammable debris out of rain gutters. And while you are up there, clean needles and leaves off the roof, too, which is especially important if your home has an untreated shake roof. • Install 1/8-inch metal mesh screen on exterior vents. Putting screens on all attic vents is vital, but it’s important on foundation vents, too. n

he flag of the United States of America has changed many times since it first flew in 1775 for a scrappy young nation that fought for and won independence from the powerful British Crown. Today, the familiar Star-Spangled Banner waves in towns and cities, on public and private property, throughout this country. Its long history includes a fair share of trivia, controversy and inspiration.

Flag Facts

• The original but unofficial Grand Union flag first used by Americans in 1775 was adapted from the British Red Ensign. • In 1777, the Union Jack was replaced with a canton with 13 stars to show that America was no longer under British rule. • An executive order in 1912 prescribed the order of stars and proportions of the flag. Before this date, flag design was left to the discretion of the flag maker, resulting in inconsistent patterns of the Stars and Stripes. • The present design has been in effect the longest, for 52 years. • 1867 was the first year in which a flag appeared on a postage stamp. • 1969 Neil Armstrong planted the American flag on the moon. • 2001 Remnants of the World Trade Center’s flag became a symbol of sacrifice in service, loss and determination.

Famous Flags

The Betsy Ross flag

• Old Glory, presented to Captain William Driver in the 1820s, sailed around the world on a whaling vessel, the Charles Doggett. Driver saved the beloved flag from destruction during the Civil War by stitching it inside a comforter. It is in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian Institution.

Flag Etiquette

• The flag is to be raised briskly and lowered slowly. • If the flag is being flown at half-staff, it should first be hoisted for a moment to the peak. It can then be lowered to half-staff position. Before it is lowered for the day, it must be raised. • It takes 13 folds to properly fold an American flag, resulting in a triangle shape that shows just the stars. Flag controversy: • Historians disagree on whether or not Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag. • In 1968, Congress approved the Federal Flag Desecration Law prohibiting public “contempt” upon “any flag of the United States.” • In 1943, the Supreme Court of the United States held that public school children could not be compelled to salute the U.S. flag. • In 1954, Congress acted to insert the words “under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance. n

ulian Merchants Association and Julian Chamber of Commerce are combining forces and becoming one entity. It became effective on July 1, the beginning of the fiscal year. Tracy Turner, JMA president and now a director on the Chamber board, said one of the reasons that led to the merger was that both groups were basically doing the same things, supporting local businesses and bringing tourism to the area. Turner and JMA Secretary Diana Garrett were elected to the Chamber board of directors in the December 2012 election.

Chamber President Mike Menghini concurred the merger will be a good thing for both groups. JMA will now serve as a subsidiary of the Chamber, he said, adding it will take a while for some of the bugs to be worked out, such as funding from the county through the Transient Occupancy Tax and other grants. “Early on, we’ll run into some snags,” Menghini said. “We will incorporate all of the things the Julian Merchants

Association does. The Chamber doesn’t have the volunteers to take on that load. For Menghini, the No. 1 reason for the merger is the increased number of volunteers the Chamber will access through the JMA. And for the JMA, Menghini said, it’s having the “clout” that goes along with working under the auspices of Julian Chamber of Commerce. One of the major benefits for local merchants is there no longer will be a membership fee for JMA. Current board members are Betty Birdsell, Renee Engel, Diana Garrett, Dawn Glass, Mike Hart, Mike Menghini, Dick Thilken, Les Turner, and Tracy Turner. n

formed a wonderful bond in the three weeks that we’ve been together,” says Kaltenthaler. “They want to improve; they are incredibly coachable.” The Julian team was soundly defeated in the first game of the tournament by the Yucaipa team, which has eight district titles under its belt. Not the least bit discouraged, they were already discussing a winning strategy for the next game in order to stay in the tournament when Kaltenthaler entered the dugout with the intention of giving a pep talk for the next day’s match against Borrego Springs. They came back with a decisive win. Daily practices were interrupted the following week for a trip to Petco Park to watch a 13-inning contest between the Padres and the Phillies, courtesy of April and Paul Kochur, who donated 20 tickets to give the youth a chance to see up close and personal how the pros do it. In the second weekend of play, the Julian All-Stars returned with another victory, this time against the Desert Hot Springs team, keeping their

chances alive for the final week of the tournament. In game four of the tournament, the Julian team racked up a loss, sending them home to dream of next year for another shot at a district title. It takes more than commitment and talent to get to this level of accomplishment. Limited league resources only defray the cost of gas, hotels and meals to transport and accommodate players at the tournament, which can add up to almost $1,000 per excursion. The support of families and the Julian community is essential. Local merchants, the American Legion and Sons of the American Legion as groups and individual members have made generous financial contributions to support the team. Although they did not come home with the coveted prize, these kids’ hopes are not dashed. They’ve learned what can be accomplished with dedication and hard work, focused on a single goal. When they next step out on the field, they’ll know they’re All-Stars. n

Iipay Nation Hosts Preparedness Fiesta

community Preparedness Fiesta was held June 1 by the Iipay Nation of Santa Ysabel Disaster Preparedness Committee, in conjunction with the American Red Cross, San Diego Gas & Electric, the Santa Ysabel Reservation Fire Department, and the Santa Ysabel Resort and Casino, where the free event took place. The goal was to equip community members with the knowledge and resources needed to effectively deal with disasters

and emergency situations. Guests received information about formulating disaster preparedness plans and how to effectively deal with a wide variety of emergencies. There were fire demonstrations and instruction in the selection and proper use of fire extinguishers, handling medical

emergencies, fire-proofing structures, and avoiding injury from downed power lines. Also available were emergency planning kits, child car seats, fire extinguishers, and

other safety resources. Other participating agencies were the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department, and Julian CERT (Community Emergency Response Team). n

Ramona Country Fair Goes Back to the Basics By Tracy Rolling

hen volunteers with the Ramona Chamber of Commerce began planning the 43rd Annual Ramona Country Fair a few months ago, the committee decided it was time to go back to the basics. “We want to get back to the old stuff, what country fairs used to be like,” said committee chair Bob Murray. Murray tells how this year’s event, scheduled for July 25 through 28, will still have many of the traditional fair favorites, along with some new exciting contests, demonstrations and activities. “We’re going to have a homemade jelly, jam and honey competition,” he said, adding that ribbons for the

top three will be awarded, and entries will be accepted from Ramona residents as well as folks from neighboring communities. They will also host two frozen T-shirt contests, which Murray describes as very entertaining. Contestants will be handed a frozen T-shirt that was previously drenched in water, wrung out and placed in a freezer up until the time of the contest. He says the objective is to be the first person to unwind the T-shirt by carefully banging it against the ground, and then put it on. “It is a hoot!” he chuckled. Other new events will include live music on Friday and Saturday, a country-Western dance competition to the music of Whiskey Ridge on

Saturday, and pie and watermelon eating contests. “We plan on making the pie eating contest fun and messy.” Other fair favorites will include carnival rides by Christiansen Amusements, food and bev- 2012 Ramona Country Fair. erage vendors, Photos by Darrel Kinney a beer and wine Peirce Middle School garden, as well as several arts band, Mexican folkand crafts booths. lore, face painting, Special demonstrations will Scouts building a occur over the course of the monkey bridge, and fair, including a martial arts lots of other familydemonstration. friendly activities,” Ramona Idol, a popular he said. vocal contest, will be in full The fair will be swing, and contestants will held at the Ramona Outdoor have the opportunity to Community Center at 421 perform in front of a live Aqua Ln., Ramona. audience as they vie for a spot Admission to the fair and in the finals.

Side Street Productions Presents ‘American Buffalo’

avid Mamet’s awardwinning play “American Buffalo” is presented by Side Street Productions, July 19 through 21. The play is an adultthemed comedy about three poker buddies, played by actors John Culver, Eric Olsen and Don Winslow, in the pursuit of their distorted vision of the American dream. The piercing, heart-wrenching and hilarious story depicts how people can be corrupted into betraying their ideals and those they love. Founded by Kait Mushet,

Side Street Productions is a local Julian theater company located in the space behind the Rong Branch Restaurant that was once the Boars Head Saloon. The historical

landmark, once known as the “longest bar west of the Mississippi,” had become a vacant room with the potential for housing a professional black-box theater. Mushet saw its potential and transformed the space with a vision of providing quality, year-round entertainment, an outlet for local youth, and creating jobs for local theater enthusiasts. Mushet says that Side Street Productions provides a brand-new attraction to Julian that will encourage tourists to stay in town hours longer than they normally would.

Hubbell Home Tour Sets New Record Hubbell. They include the private living quarters — housed in three buildings — galleries and studios where Hubbell and other artists work on their designs and artistic creations.

The theater is located at 2722 Washington St. “American Buffalo” show times are 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 2 p.m. Sunday. Tickets are $10, available at the door two hours prior to

curtain. Due to strong language and mild violence, the show is not recommended for guests under the age of 17. For information, email Kait Mushet at juliansidestreet@ gmail.com. n

You can be reminded of what it means to be an American every time you pass the corner of Wynola and Farmer roads, where more than 70 United States flags decorate the fence posts. The brightly colored banners, like

a series of exclamation points, provide a sharp contrast to the shades of green and brown of the natural landscape around them. They provide a convenient pause to reflect on ideas and values the American flag has come to symbolize. n

The Hubbells acquired the 40 acres shortly after they were married in 1958. The first structure where they lived for four years is now known as Jim’s Studio. Local resources were used in its construction — stone cleared from the land, adobe bricks and cedar from nearby mountains. The next structure, built in 1962, became the family’s living room and kitchen. Mosaic tiles flow over the countertops, windows and door sills. The floors and ceiling beams are made from cedar reclaimed from the 2002 Pines fire. Many of the buildings were destroyed or damaged by a fire in 2007. The Master Bedroom, off limits to the public during the tour, is a free-form sculpture that also is home to Anne Hubbell’s study. The Boys’ House was built in the early 1970s. More work was required following the 2007 Cedar fire. The Hubbells’ four sons lived here as teenagers. The Drafting Studio was built in 1982. The combination windows/doors face south to allow in the sun’s warmth in the winter and breezes in the summer. The Big Studio, built in 1965, is the major workplace for Hubbell and visiting artists. The Kiva Gallery complements the Big Studio. The roof is covered with tiles crafted in Tecate, Mexico. Its name is derived from lighter tiles in the center of the floor,
