Ladera Ranch’s Laura Feld was honored with the 2017 Heart Award by Laura’s House at the nonprofit’s Ladies Guild Ladera Derby Day Laura was honored for her dedication to Laura’s House and its mission of changing social beliefs, attitudes and the behaviors that perpetuate domestic violence. In 2016 alone, she dedicated over 1000 hours of her time in service, including fundraising, donating, helping with events and pouring her heart and soul into the nonprofit’s Resale Stores located in San Juan Capistrano and Lake Forest. She soon became known as the ‘Book Lady,’ for her efforts in transforming each store’s book sections for guest to enjoy. She also has been instrumental in coordinating volunteers at both Stores and managing training, organizing schedules, tasks and appreciation events. Margaret Bayston, Laura’s House Executive Director says, “She is unassuming, humble, generous and she has a heart for the families we serve. We are tremendously grateful that Laura chooses Laura’s House to spend her time, passion and dedication. Our stores are better, our agency is better, our clients are better and our community is better because of Laura.” Laura Feld shares: “I first became connected with domestic violence when a friend of mine in Texas
confided to me that she had been verbally and physically abused by her husband. I was astonished that someone could harm this beautiful and sweet young woman and I realized how devastating the effects of this abuse were to her self-esteem and outlook on life. I spent the next year or so doing my best to help her out of this situation and tried to help regain her independence and feeling of value. This made such an impact on me and I realize how very important what we do at Laura’s House is to so many women and children. Although being a volunteer at the Resale Store and not working directly with the victims, I still realize how important my volunteer time is to strengthening and furthering our mission. With the help of so many volunteers at the Resale Stores, we are able to help fund more programs and services by giving of our time. I am proud to be a volunteer with Laura’s House and the Resale Stores and will do what I can to help in any way I can.” Laura’s House Resale Store is located at 23635 El Toro Rd # F, Lake Forest, CA 92630. (949) 472-8800. For more information about Laura’s House or to make a donation go to Laura Feld and Margaret Bayson www.laurashouse.org

Keep your teen athlete fueled with these 4 vital tips High school can be intense, but being a student athlete can intensify expectations. As the start of spring sports approaches, the stakes are even higher for your student to maintain the success they had first semester. There are practices, matches and conference finals that have to fit in with exams and semester-long projects. Being a standout in the classroom and on the field requires expert-level planning and execution. That’s where parents play a huge role in helping their teen athletes keep it all in balance. Here are four easy tips to help you ensure that your teen is ready for a great season, on and off the field. Food: Allison Maurer - a sports dietitian and Gatorade consultant who has worked with high school and collegiate athletes - says, “The important thing to remember is that food is fuel. It gives athletes the energy they need to perform and also helps them recover. When planning your athletes’ meals, look for whole food sources that provide high-quality fats, lean proteins and complex carbohydrates. Talk to your athlete about his or her fuel strategy before, during and after practices and games, and offer support by providing healthy, energy rich snacks.” Hydration: When exercising hard, the body cools itself through sweat. If body mass is reduced by about 2 percent, which would be 3 pounds of water weight loss in a 150-pound athlete, it can negatively affect performance, according to the National Athletic Trainers’ Association’s (NATA) Position Statement on Fluid Replacement for Athletes. “Athletes lose more than water in
sweat, so it’s important that they take their hydration seriously since it can impact performance,” Maurer says. “There are a number of products to meet an athlete’s hydration and fueling preferences. For those looking for an organic fueling option, I recommend G Organic, Gatorade’s latest product. It’s made with only seven ingredients and provides the same hydration benefits that athletes expect from Gatorade.” Rest: Although teens may seem to bounce back easily from a night with too little rest, the truth is that good sleep helps both learning and athletic performance. Sleep helps athletes recover, especially after they’ve pushed their limits in an intense workout. Being rested can also improve reaction time, as well as speed and accuracy. In addition, teens with earlier bedtimes had better grades than those who stayed up later and slept less, according to a study of 3,000 subjects cited by the National Sleep Foundation. Talk about these benefits with your athlete, and encourage them to
go to bed and rise at the same time each day. Also, the glowing light of electronic devices can also interfere with sleep. So, help your teen come up with a strategy to power down an hour or so before bedtime in order to prepare their minds for a night of restorative sleep. Planning: Schedules have a way of colliding, and this especially happens when a huge test and a game are scheduled for the same day. Each week, sit down with your student athlete and walk through that week’s schedule. Look at practices, games, homework assignments and tests, and create a calendar. That way, if a midterm and a game take place on the same day, he or she can plan accordingly. This will help avoid a late-night, stress-filled cram session that will steal from their performance in the classroom and on the field. Life as a student athlete means keeping everything in balance. By focusing on the body - from nutrition to time management - athletes can focus on giving their best performance this upcoming season. - (BPT)

PACIFIC SYMPHONY RENEWS CONTRACT WITH POPULAR ASSISTANT CONDUCTOR ROGER KALIA FOR TWO MORE YEARS Pacific Symphony has extended the contract of its assistant conductor, Roger Kalia, for two additional years, providing for him to continue in his current role through June 2019. It’s been two years since the Symphony first announced Kalia as its second in command (under Music Director Carl St.Clair), with his position beginning at the start of the 2015-16 season. In addition to assisting St.Clair with conducting duties, Kalia has played— and will continue to play—a vital role in the Symphony’s education initiatives. These include programming and conducting the Farmers & Merchants Bank Family Musical Mornings series, which introduces children ages 5-11 (and beyond) to the exciting world of orchestral music through engaging and educational concerts. “I am absolutely thrilled to continue my work as assistant conductor with Pacific Symphony for the next two years,” says Kalia. “Working with Maestro St.Clair, the staff and the wonderful musicians has been inspiring and memorable. I have already had the privilege of meeting and working with incredible people across Orange County, and I’m looking forward to being part of the many exciting future concerts and projects. Just having this opportunity is extraordinary—and a big deal! I am so grateful for being part of this very special organization.” “Roger has made a tremendous musical contribution to Pacific Symphony,” says Maestro St.Clair. “In very short order, he gained the respect of the musicians and also the staff with whom he works so very closely. Offering Roger a two-year extension will give all of us some important stability for the near future. He is most deserving!” Kalia will also continue in his role as music director of Pacific Symphony Youth Orchestra (PSYO), a premier training orchestra for instrumentalists in grades 9-12, preparing them for a three-concert series each season. Among his many accomplishments with the Symphony thus far, Kalia led the youth orchestra on its highly successful 10-day international tour to China in June 2016. Kalia remarks: “I will never forget the Youth Orchestra’s China tour last summer, which marked the orchestra’s second international tour and first to Asia. I am beyond thrilled to continue my work with the wonderful young musicians of PSYO, as we reach for new heights as an
orchestra over these next two years.” “Roger is doing a wonderful job with our PSYO,” says St.Clair. “He keenly understands his role in helping these young and very talented musicians mature and develop. He shares his love and passion for music with them, inspiring and motivating them beyond their years.” Additionally, Kalia’s duties will include welcoming more than 12,000 elementary school children to the concert hall at the end of each of the next two school years for the Class Act Youth Concerts, which annually conclude a year of music lessons and performances in Orange County schools given by Symphony musicians. “One of the most enjoyable and important aspects of my job has been connecting with our younger audiences through the Family Musical Mornings and Class Act Youth concerts,” says Kalia. “Having the opportunity to expose and introduce them to Pacific Symphony and orchestral music has been extremely rewarding for me as a conductor. I always enjoy meeting these wonderful young people and their parents in the lobby and seeing the joy and excitement on their faces after our concerts.” With the end of the Symphony’s 2016-17 season concluding in June, Kalia can next be seen on the stage of the Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall in October 2017, when he will lead the annual Halloween Family Musical Mornings concert. “As with all of our previous assistant conductors, I have been of the same thinking—one year at a time, but not more than four years in this post,” notes St.Clair. “Having been an assistant conductor of the Boston Symphony, my goal is to treat our assistant conductors as I was groomed and mentored. I try to make sure and create an environment in which they can continue to grow and develop as musicians, conductors and future music directors. Roger embraces all of his opportunities and makes the most out of them. Everyone is a winner!” Though only 30 years old when he first arrived in Orange County, Kalia brought with him a great deal of experience as a conductor and educator, having served as Charlotte Symphony’s assistant conductor since September 2013. The maestro led a variety of performances for the
Pacific Symphony assistant conductor, Roger Kalia Charlotte Symphony including the family, education, outreach and parks concerts, and he also collaborated frequently with the Charlotte Ballet. He’s been praised for conducting with “vigor” and “commitment” (Charlotte Observer) and for bringing a “fresh view to classical music” (The Republic). Kalia also completed three years as music director of the Young Musicians Foundation (YMF) Debut Orchestra in Los Angeles. Winner of YMF’s 2012 National Conductor Search, Kalia follows in the footsteps of such illustrious conductors as Michael Tilson Thomas, André Previn and Myung-Whun Chung. Kalia has proven to be a prolific leader in the music world through his appearances with orchestras across North America and Europe, as well as his innovative programming choices. Highlights from his time with YMF Debut Orchestra include a production of Stravinsky’s “The Soldier’s Tale” with actors Jack Black and Michael Lerner at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, a unique concert titled “Gamer Jams: Music Behind the Screen” featuring music by leading video game composers at the Ford Theater, and the orchestra’s debut
performance at the Cathedral of Our Lady of Angels “Virgin of Guadalupe” Celebration, which was televised and streamed worldwide. He has worked with many famous composers, commissioning and programming more than 100 works as an advocate for contemporary classical music. This fascination for the advancement of music in today’s world along with the reverence for the old masterpieces is expressed in Kalia’s co-founding and music directorship of the Lake George Music Festival in New York, which serves as a meeting point for composers and musicians from across the nation. Kalia’s many praiseworthy experiences are further bolstered by his acceptance of the BMI/Lionel Newman Conducting Scholarship and YMF Conducting Grant. He completed his work as a doctoral conducting fellow at Indiana University. “I am so grateful and honored to be part of an organization that puts so much priority on music education and I look forward to inspiring future generations of musicians and classical music listeners in the years to come,” concludes Kalia.

The Steps on How to Barbeque Successfully Trying to barbecue can be a difficult task; however, you are definitely going to enjoy the nice food that will be available to you when you cook it all completely the right way that you should have. You not only need to have the right type of steak, but you also need the right kinds of equipment and knowledge. If you are one of many people that has absolutely no idea on how to barbecue, then there are a few things you should know. Grilling barbecue tends to be pretty tough for a couple of people, but in reality, it happens to be very easy. As long as you have the right tools to grilling, you can then easily make perfect barbecue. Simple Tips On How To Barbecue - Properly Marinate The Steak Marinating the steak could take anywhere, from 12 hours or more just for it to have the sauce and ingredients really cooked into the steak. You can marinate it with anything that you choose, and usually a friend or somebody you may know may recommend a certain type of sauces to marinate it with. However, you really need to consider using garlic, coarsely, basil leaves, lemon, vegetable oil, red wine vinegar, and then adding all of that together with your steak. Let it rest under a foil for the night, and then cook it the following day.
- Right Quantity Make sure that you use just the ingredients for the sauce. Don’t forget to have a nice set of steaks, and have enough for everybody at the party. Just keeping in mind the right quantity can help you out a lot. What Do You Need To Make The Perfect Barbecue? - Barbecue Side Dishes Some of the best barbecue side dishes are Cajun Deveiled Eggs, Baked Sweet Potatoe Fries, and grilled Vegetable Kabobs. You can use whatever you want as a side dish. Your overall goal should be to use something that everybody is going to like, not to mention be made in a good way. If you use the most popular side dish but you make it the wrong way, then you need to use something else. - Clean Utensils Make sure that you use the right utensils that are also very clean. Whether a clean spatula or a clean grill, make sure that you clean it all up completely. If it is not all that clean, then you may make the mistake of dirty or soapy types of steak. Aside from just clean utensils, you really need a good type of grill that is still up to date. Keep all of your ingredients near you and get ready to start cooking. Helpful Grilling Tips
- Choose The Right Cut Of Meat Did you know that some cuts of meat are better for grilling than others? Many people like to grill strip steaks, but it is all a matter of opinion. It actually depends on you, as there are many types of meat, so you should try to experiment. Don’t just try one type of steak like Filet Mignon without trying the others. See what tastes the best, is the easiest to cook, and also the most affordable. - Don’t Touch It Avoid touching your steak while it is cooking. Try to use your spatula only a few times, and then flip it when you notice that it is starting to burn. Don’t touch it too much while it is still cooking. - Use Charcoal Using the ordinary gas from the grill could add that gassy type of taste to your steak. Try using a nice hardwood charcoal, similar to what is used in the chimneys at home. These can give that natural smell and taste without that aura of gas being inside of the steak.
- Room Temperature If you would like for your food to smell and taste great, keep them at room temperature before you plan on cooking them. The fridge may be a good place to keep them during the marinating proccess, but once the morning rises, keeping it out in a safe place where no bugs can get inside is a great way to keep them cool right before they get cooked. These tips are definitely going to help you on becoming the next barbecue master.

Check off your backyard bucket list: seed, weed and feed From Sunday picnics and impromptu barbecues to games of catch, make your lawn center stage this spring. Everyone longs for a lush, green lawn, but many homeowners aren’t sure how to achieve it. In fact, although 81 percent of Americans do their own lawn care, 69 percent say their lawns could be better, and nearly a third aren’t sure how to grow a healthy lawn, according to a survey by the National Association of Landscape Professionals. A strong, green lawn can give back to you in so many ways and getting there is easier than you think. The lawn health experts at Scotts(R) say the keys to a great lawn are seed, weed and feed. Seed Did winter do a number on your lawn? Heavy foot traffic, plows, snow shovels and salt can damage your turf, and after the first melt visible dirt spots and dead zones may appear. When spring temperatures reach 60 degrees or higher, seeds will germinate best and it’s time to repair winter damage. Patch and repair your lawn to fill in bare spots, help crowd out weeds and strengthen your grass to help withstand heat and drought. Start
by removing debris and dead grass in the surrounding area, and loosen hard soil, this will help grass seedlings take root. Evenly apply a quality seed, like Scotts(R) EZ Seed(R), so the bare area is mostly covered, but bare ground is still visible. Be sure to only apply the recommended amount so that seedlings have enough space to access water and nutrients. Scotts(R) EZ Seed(R) is a combination of fertilizer, grass seed and super absorbent mulch that is guaranteed to grow grass anywhere with proper care, whether on a hill or slope, or in a densely-shaded area. Weed Preserve your healthy and beautiful lawn by keeping it free of weeds. Common weeds like dandelions and clover can choke out healthy grass. Therefore, it’s important to address weeds in spring so they won’t have a chance to thrive in summer. Removing weeds can be a challenge, especially if any roots are left behind as they can quickly grow into a new plant. Get rid of weeds by using a weed-control product like the improved Scotts(R) Turf Builder(R) Weed & Feed. It is formulated with up to two times more powerful control
of dandelions and clover compared to the previous formula, so it kills weeds and feeds grass to make it green and thick. Feed Continuing to feed your established lawn is critical to its nutrition and overall success. Your lawn requires feeding about every six weeks, and its nutritional needs will vary throughout the season. Choosing the right food at the right time can help ensure your lawn stays thick and green all spring and summer. For example, if your yard needs a boost towards the end of spring use Scotts(R) Green Max(RM) Lawn Food, it provides your
lawn with essential nutrients, like iron, that give grass its rich green color in just three days. No two lawns are alike. A number of factors including where you live or whether you have a sunny or shady backyard affect how to treat your grass. Not sure which products are right? Download the MyLawn app from Scotts(R) for a personalized care plan that will help you achieve your desired results.

Barbecue Sauce, an American Flavor Tradition By Mike Thayer It’s grilling season, BBQ season, it’s time to fire up the smoker, the gas grill, the portable Weber, rub two sticks together, it doesn’t matter - put some meat on the fire! And what is the most popular accompaniment for a plethora of meats cooked in the great outdoors? No silly, not ketchup, its barbecue sauce! The person who invented BBQ sauce is unknown, but whoever he was, he was a genius! References to the sauce started appearing in 17th century English and French literature about the formation of the American colonies. The rest is history and boy has BBQ sauce been kicked up a notch with all kinds of flavors and varieties created over the last 400+ years! A traditional flavoring for pork, beef and chicken, sauce can range from watery to thick, from being heavy on the vinegar to being loaded with spice. Heck, there’s even mustard and mayonnaise based BBQ sauces. It’s a regional thing, there’s Carolina BBQ, Tennessee whiskey BBQ, Texas BBQ and the favorite of yours truly, Kansas City BBQ. What is your favorite sauce? Kansas City BBQ style: This is Page 10
a thick, rich tomato based sauce that’s got some spice but is heavier on the sweet. Tomato, brown sugar and vinegar are the base ingredients. It doesn’t really penetrate the meat and is more like a frosting than a marinade. It glazes REAL nice though when put on the meat about 10 minutes before pulling off the grill, a beautiful finish. This is the most popular style of sauce in the U.S. and what you see the most of in the bottled varieties on the grocery store shelf. Be careful with the store bought stuff though! The high sugar content of the “ready” varieties tend to burn real quick so keep an eye on your dinner. Texas BBQ style: This has more kick than Kansas City style. It has less tomato, less sugar and a lot more spice such as cumin, black pepper, chili pepper, and even chili powder. Meat drippings and hot sauce - Tabasco - are always a part of this style and fresh veggies like green bell pepper and onion are often added. East Carolina mop: This simple but tasty sauce was pioneered by the African slaves of Scottish settlers in the region. It’s a straight forward combination of hot pepper flakes, ground black pepper and vinegar. The
The Ladera Ranch News
reason it’s called a mop is because this thin concoction is literally mopped - basted - on the meat throughout the cooking process, the flavor really penetrates! With little if any sugar and no tomato in this style, East Carolina mop is a sharp contrast to other sauces. Western Carolina dip: From the hilly areas of North Carolina, most American sauces can trace their roots to this one. The recipe usually consists of a base of black pepper blended with tomato paste or tomato sauce, or ketchup, with vinegar added to balance it out. Like the East Carolina mop, this is a thin sauce that is mopped on the meat throughout the cooking process. South Carolina mustard style: This is a whole new BBQ sauce experience. Early German settlers developed this one and while good on chicken, its tailor made for pork. A little thicker than its Carolina cousin sauces, a simple recipe consists of mustard, vinegar, spices and a little sugar. Fantastic on a pulled pork sandwich topped with coleslaw. Tennessee Whiskey style: Made
famous by the Jack Daniel’s World Championship Barbecue Invitational, this style has become so popular it now deserves its own category. This combination of vinegar, whiskey, molasses, spices, and Worcestershire sauce gives BBQ a whole new flavor profile. And BBQ sauce isn’t just for pork, beef or chicken anymore! Try the Western Carolina dip on grilled shrimp or fish. Put your favorite style on a pizza instead of traditional tomato sauce. If lamb isn’t your favorite, try it again with some Tennessee Whiskey sauce! And here’s a personal side dish favorite, toss some grilled cauliflower florets, baby carrots, baby portabella mushrooms and bacon bits together with some Kansas City style sauce. Delicious! Get your tongs out!

T h e L a g u n a Pl a y h o u s e Gala Raises Record $600,000 Photos by: Patrick and Peggy O’Donnell The Laguna Playhouse annual fundraising gala was held at the Island Hotel in Newport Beach with the theme Theatre Changes Lives. Around 381 supporters, guests and VIP’s raised a record $600,000 in support of the Playhouse’s mission to enrich lives through the magic of live theatre, to provide educational opportunities for children and adults, and to create experiences that stimulate cultural and social interaction and inspire our community. Proceeds from the event help cover the operating costs of the 96-year old icon, one of the oldest continuing operating theaters west of the Mississippi. Within the funds raised that evening, $90,000 was raised for the Suzanne and James Mellor Laguna Playhouse Tribute Fund, which will provide theatre experiences for youth by providing tickets to performances and to cover the cost of transporting youth groups to the theatre. Arriving guests were greeted to live piano music. Highlights from the evening included: a VIP Reception sponsored by First American Trust featuring hors d’ouevres and live music, the critically acclaimed Laguna Playhouse Youth Theatre welcoming guests with a special musical presentation of “Consider Yourself” from the play “Oliver”. The celebratory event was co-chaired by Kathryn Burton Gray and Laguna Playhouse Trustee Glenn E. Gray who led this great success with the most amount of money raised at a Playhouse gala in history. The event was sold out three weeks before the event date with special accommodations being made to add in an extra sixty attendees. Gray welcomed celebrated Orange County community and business leaders with a champagne toast to 96 successful theatrical years, and honoring Suzanne and James Mellor for their decades of philanthropy and leadership for arts in Laguna Beach. Suzanne’s touching remarks recalled how, growing up in Detroit at age 10, her sanctuary was hearing the Detroit Symphony perform. Jim noted, “We give and we also get, with a big multiplier. We feel privileged to serve and be part of the Playhouse. It’s especially rewarding to be honored for something you love to do.” The event featured a Nolet’s Bar where guests enjoyed signature Nolet cocktails. An amazing array of silent and live auction items ranging from Art & Jewelry, Wine and Spirits, Chef’s Tables and luxurious travel were available for bid throughout the night. The opportunity drawing sponsor, Winston’s Crown Jewelers, contributed three stunning pieces of jewelry and 150 boxes filled with a piece of jewelry or a Winston’s Crown Jewelers gift certificate. Unique live auction items included: Surfing with a Star Gregory Harrison (winner Lou Rohl); naming the Playhouse’s bar and signature cocktail for the new season (the Irvine Company president Ray Wirta winner), one-time walk-on roles of Hairspray and the holiday Panto Aladdin. Auctioneer Zack Krone led guests in an entertaining fundraising segment, “Fund A Need,” where the audience learned how their donations materialized into full blown production elements. The evening wrapped up with guests dancing to music performed by DC Babylon and the Hanging Garden, a full Chicago style band complete with a horn ensemble. Founded in 1920, the historic Laguna Playhouse is one of the oldest continuously-operating not-for-profit theatres on the West Coast and is proud to be an active participant in the celebrated Laguna Beach arts community. From classic plays and musical comedies to the current off-Broadway smash, cutting edge and traditional music exhibitions, dance festivals and stand-up comedy performances, Laguna Playhouse brings the magical experience of the performing arts direct to over 80,000 patrons each season. The Playhouse has featured many talented performers on stage, including Ed Asner, Leslie Caron, Hershey Felder, Harrison Ford, Val Kilmer, Dan Lauria, Wendie Malick, Rita Rudner, Charles Shaughnessy, Loretta Swit, and Bette Davis.

FIVE FAMOUS CHARACTERS WILL CHARM THE CHILDREN AT THE 59th ANNUAL GARDEN GROVE STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL Strawberry Festival Will Be Honoring Jack Wallin A local Volunteer Five famous characters will be on hand to charm the children at the 59th annual Garden Grove Strawberry Festival on May 28th, 2017. Knott’s Berry Farms’ Snoopy will return for his eighth year to thrill the special needs families on Special Kids Day and will return to ride in the Saturday, May 28th parade. This will be the second year the festival parade will have two Minions from Despicable Me and Wiley the Wolf from Great Wolf Lodge. The new addition is the popular Poop Daddy from the new soon-to-be-released Emoji movie.
Instead of riding in the parade, this year the two Minions will be on festival grounds from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. near the Courtyard Center ready to have their photos taken with kids of all ages. The festival will be held Memorial Day Weekend Friday, May 26th through Monday, May 29th, 2017. Friday hours are 1:00 p.m. to 10 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Monday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Admission is free. The four-day event, which is the second largest city festival in the Western United States, will be held at the Village Green between Main Street and Euclid Avenue in downtown Garden Grove. Last year’s attendance was over 300,000. In his late 80s, Jack Wallin has served continuously on the festival board for 59 years. He says he has remained on the board because he likes the people and because it is for a good cause: helping local charities. As the board member in charge of grounds and rides, Jack spends two solid weeks every year setting up the festival. He coordinates layout
