try leader and is a testament to the department’s commitment to bringing the residents of Orange County fast and efficient services. The department reached its 7 millionth electronically submitted document back in September 2014. While recording real property documents electronically is a common service today, in 1997 Orange County changed the industry by implementing the first elec-tronic recording delivery system in the nation. Current Orange County ClerkRecorder Hugh Nguyen was part of the team that im-plemented the first system. “People thought that it wouldn’t work,” Clerk-Recorder Hugh Nguyen said. “Many County Recorders in California couldn’t envision how a secure electronic process could be implemented. We worked with title industry leaders, overcame legal barriers and created a secure electronic delivery system. The new process required legislative approval and a lengthy two year process to work with the State on regulations. In 1997, the Orange County system was the pilot program which proved
the concept did work and formed the foundation for today’s system guidelines and procedures.” Clerk-Recorder Hugh Nguyen attributes much of the success to the vision of the late Gary Granville who was the Clerk-Recorder in 1997. The electronic recording system has provided efficiencies by reducing delivery expenses and staff time. Currently the department records 64% of all documents submitted for recording electronically. In 2008, the department joined with Los Angeles, Riverside and San Diego Counties to implement the current electronic delivery system known as SECURE. This system allows title, escrow, finan-cial and government institutions to record property documents electronically to multiple counties from one single computer screen.

On Aug. 25, OC Fair & Event Center will officially unveil Table of Dignity, the newly renovated agricultural workers memorial. The public art piece commemorates the contributions of agricultural workers to the growth and prosperity of Orange County. The memorial was designed as a restful place for guests to gather and celebrate the beauty and abundance created by those who have worked in the fields and on the farms of Orange County. The memorial is comprised of three key design elements: two
large-scale entry portals made of rammed earth (creating the impression of free-standing walls), a central sculptural table made of a large boulder and a single-cut tree slab (designed to commemorate agricultural workers’ contributions of food on our tables), and a perimeter bench constructed of large timber surrounding the landscape. A grape arbor stretching above the memorial is growing to create a shady place for visitors to pause and reflect. New additions to the memorial include plaques explaining the
meaning and intention of the Table of Dignity and the names of OC Fair board members recognizing their dedication to the project. The arbor and additional seating have been added to the original design and the rammed earth walls have been renovated and stabilized. The unveiling of the memorial will be held on Aug. 25 at 10 a.m. at the east end of Centennial Farm. Admission is free.

August Is National Immunization Month
By Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna Grant Yourself Immunity Every week it seems there’s some new virus, disease, airborne, food contamination in which we have to exercise caution around or get an immunization. Wouldn’t it be great if we could get an immunization against the 405 fwy and stop that spread of toxic traffic! How about from ruse and obnoxious people? I guess we can never rid ourselves of those, however, vaccine preventable diseases can be prevented if we take the time and get our immunization shots. Viruses and bacteria that cause illness and death still exist and can be passed on to those who are not properly vaccinated reminds Fire Chief Sam DiGiovanna. In addition we have more people coming to the United States and that also brings various viruses and diseases from other countries. The Center for Disease Control recognizes August as National Immunization month. Infants and the elderly are at

greater risk for serious infections and complications, but vaccinepreventable diseases can strike anyone. Approximately 50,000 adults die each year from vaccinepreventable diseases in the US. Make sure your children are upto-date on vaccines before sending them back to school. School-age children, from preschoolers to college students, need vaccines. Shots may hurt a little, but the diseases they can prevent are a lot worse says Chief DiGiovanna. It’s important to remember handwashing is like a “do-it-yourself” vaccine – it involves five simple and effective steps (think Wet, Lather, Scrub, Rinse, Dry) so you can stay healthy. Regular hand-washing, particularly before and after certain activities, is one of the best ways to remove germs, avoid getting sick, and prevent the spread of germs to others.

100 Degrees in the Shade is Good Football Weather at Santa Margarita By: Sean Zeitler Photos By: Roger Clay Fresh off their CIF 2nd Round Appearance last season, Coach Fisher and his staff, now in their second year, look to take the Eagles to the next level. Despite losing several pieces of last year’s puzzles to graduation, and quarterbacks coach Jeff Grady to Edison High School where he took over for longtime Charger Head Coach Dave White, the Eagles return a core nucleus of impact players that will lead the Eagles into the 2017 season. The 2016 Eagles (7-5, 2-3) have had a solid spring and summer where they have shown a high level of comfortability under Coach Fisher and his staff’s system. The Eagles will have holes to fill with the graduation of center Brett Neilon (’16, USC), wide receiver/punter Grant Calcaterra (’16, Oklahoma), and quarterback Richard Wagner (’16, Cornell). Despite losing those key players to graduation, the Eagles will rely powerful running of All-Trinity League tailback Chad Magyar, who rushed for a 1,074 yard last season, including a season high 264 yards against Servite last season, and tallied 12 total touchdowns. Recent Utah-commit Malone Mateale, one of the better all-around football athletes in California, set school records for most kickoff returns in a season (25), kickoff return yards in a season (711), most kickoff return yards in a game (270, Mission Viejo), most punt return yards in a game (107, King), most punt return touchdowns in a game (2, King), among several other tied special team school records. In addition to his special team’s prowess, Mataele is a game changer on both sides of the ball where he plays wide receiver, running back, as well as cornerback on the defensive side of the ball. Opposing defenses will have a tough time defending the Santa Margarita tight end duo of Fresno State-commit Johnny McCartan (6’5”, 225) and a healthy Jake Peters (6’5”, 240). McCartan is known for his reliable hands but is also a well-
improved blocker. Peters has had a slew of injuries throughout his high school career but when healthy, is a dangerous threat as a receiver and as a blocker. A question mark for the Eagle offense rests at the quarterback position, where there are a handful of talented options in Josiah Norwood, Hunter Cifuentes, and Johnny Parkinson. Each quarterback offers different attributes and it will be interesting to see who is behind center in week one against Downey High School. Road Warriors: The Eagles will hit the ground running to start the 2017 season, Senior running back, Chad Magyar, was named to the All-Trinity where they will travel the first two League team last season. weeks to Downey High School in Week 0 and Loyola High School in Week 1, logging a cool 100+ mile road trip between the two of them. When the Eagle enter Trinity league play in October, they will open up at home* against Mater Dei before three consecutive away league games against Servite (October 13), St. John Bosco (October 20), and JSerra (October 27) before closing out the regular season against Orange Lutheran at home*. *Home is Where the Heart is: With Saddleback College’s stadium undergoing a massive renovation, the Santa Margarita’s athletic administration worked diligently Fresno State-commit Johnny McCartan is a feature tight end for the to secure local venues but as a Eagles and looks to make a difference for the Eagle offense. result, the Eagles will have a couple Thursday games. The Eagles will host Mayfair at Laguna Hills High School on September 14th for the Homecoming game. The following week will be the final game of the nonleague schedule where the Eagles will host Mission Viejo on September 22nd at Trabuco Hills High School. Other home away from home games: Friday October 6: vs. Mater Dei at Laguna Hills High School Friday November 3: Orange Lutheran at Trabuco Hills High School The first home game of the season for the Eagles will be against Bishop Alemany on Thursday, September 7th at Laguna Hills High School.

Tesoro High School Gets Ready for Some Football
Although it’s only the middle of August, the Tesoro High School Titan football team is already out on the football field getting ready for this season. Players don’t seem to mind the heat as they charge relentlessly through their pre-game practice drills as the coaches watch from the sidelines. While the Titan football team is getting ready to rumble, coaches have been huddled for several weeks, pouring over scouting reports and putting some finely-tuned finishing touches on their playbooks for the upcoming 2017-2018 football season. Tesoro Football is looking forward to a great 2017 season. Head Coach Matt Poston said” With 25 returning Seniors we look to be very competitive in the tough South Coast League. We will start our season off at home vs. Edison where we will honor our Seniors on August 25th at 7:00pm. Be on the lookout
for returning players QB Chase Petersen # 7, DE James Williams #23, DB/RB Vinnie Vladic #6, and WR Seth Gilmore #2. We look forward to our rival game against San Juan Hills High School which is always an exciting matchup.” With some returning players and some rookies, the Tesoro High School Titan football team is one of South Orange County’s favorite prep school teams to watch. The Tesoro High School Titan football team is an exciting team with lots of hard-charging action and plenty of innovative play calling from their outstanding coaching staff. As you may recall from last year’s most thrilling games, Tesoro Titans Meet Mater Dei Monarchs is recapped here: On a muggy, moonlit Friday night perfect for football, busloads of energetic Tesoro Titan fans bailed out of their buses and vans and burst
into the Eddie West Field sometimes known as the Santa Ana Stadium next to the Orange County Central Jail. The Tesoro team and their fans let the Mater Dei crowd that they were ready for a rumble and everyone in the stadium was soon certain of that. Tesoro stunned the mighty Mater Dei Monarchs with a spirited 18 yard scoring run by Quarterback Devon Modster giving the Titans the 7-0 early lead. The quarterback also scored on a later 6 yard sprint past the goal line and completed 24 of his 35 passes. With the Monarchs surging ahead to lead at half time 14-7 then scored again early in the third quarter to bring the score to 21-7.Tesoro suddenly surged again, bringing everyone in the stadium to their feet with a seventy- six yard, eleven play combination culminating in another incredible six yard scoring drive bringing a gasp to the Mater Dei crowd as Tesoro cut the Monarchs
lead to 21-14 with but four minutes remaining on the clock in the third quarter. Titan linemen and defensive backs soon stymied another attack by Mater Dei and after a surprise penalty after a forced punt, Mater Dei marched ahead to increase their lead to 28-14 and escalated their offense for the remainder of the game. Tesoro cheerleaders were undismayed and the loyal Titan crowds were hoarse from their intense cheers throughout the final whistle signaling the end of an intense and immensely interesting competition between two talented teams. The Tesoro High School Titan football team will begin their season with a home nonconference game vs. Edison (Huntington Beach, California) on Friday, August 25 @ 7pm. This is also our Senior Night for the players.

The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 477-7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 043726-CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

WEST COAST DEBUT OF THIS YEAR’S VAN CLIBURN INTERNATIONAL C OM P ETITION GOL D ME D ALIST, YE K W ON S U N W OO
Pacific Symphony’s Much-Loved Annual Favorite “Tchaikovsky Spectacular” Concludes the First “Summerfest” Season of Magical Music at Pacific Amphitheatre! Pacific Symphony ends every summer season with a spectacular bang, a burst of colorful fireworks and grand music! This year feels particularly significant, as the orchestra draws to a close its inaugural season in its new home at the OC Fair and Event Center on the triumphant note of “Tchaikovsky Spectacular.” Music Director Carl St.Clair leads this annual hit parade of Romantic masterworks, which also includes favorites by such mighty Russian masters as Shostakovich and Prokofiev. The concert features the brilliant virtuosity of the Van Cliburn gold medal winner, Yekwon Sunwoo, who performs Rachmaninoff’s exquisite and sweeping Piano Concerto No. 2. Capping off this memorable evening is the electrifying “1812 Overture,” featuring the Huntington Beach Concert Band—complete with cannons and brilliant fireworks— sending hearts racing and spirits soaring! “Our summer will close with the ringing of bells, the sound of canon fire and, of course, fireworks and Tchaikovsky’s ever-beloved ‘1812 Overture’—it’s always a memorable time!” says Maestro St.Clair. “Each year’s ‘Tchaikovsky Spectacular’ features an all-new program, and this summer the audience will be treated to a powerful performance of Rachmaninoff’s famed ‘Second Piano Page 16
Concerto,’ as well as great music by other top Russian composers. It is sure to bring our first summer at the Pacific Amphitheatre to a wonderful and fitting close!” A grand spectacle from beginning to end, “Tchaikovsky Spectacular” takes place Saturday, Sept. 9, at 8 p.m., in the Pacific Amphitheatre at the OC Fair & Event Center. Tickets are $25-$99. Pre-concert entertainment by the Huntington Beach Band takes place from 6-7:30 p.m. at the Plaza Pacifica entrance. All are welcome to bring their own food, wine and non-alcoholic beverages onto the premises, but glass containers and glassware are not permitted inside the amphitheater. Beer, along with additional food and beverages may be purchased at the concession stands inside the amphitheater. The gates open at 6 p.m. for picnicking. Picnic tables are available at the Plaza Pacifica entrance or patrons may picnic at their seats. For more information or to purchase tickets, call (714) 755-5799 or visit www. PacificSymphony.org. The evening is off and running right out of the gates, as the audience enjoys a short, wild ride via Shostakovich’s “Galop,” which sounds just like its name and is a musical sprint from the satirical operetta “Moscow, Cheryomushki.” Next is the program’s centerpiece, Rachmaninoff’s virtuosic showpiece—the achingly beautiful, grand and lyrical Piano Concerto No. 2—performed by this year’s Van Cliburn gold medal winner, pianist Yekwon Sunwoo. Sunwoo earned
The Ladera Ranch News
his bachelor’s degree at the Curtis Institute of Music, his master’s at The Juilliard School, and also studied at the Mannes School of Music. The young, fast-rising star has already won first prizes at the 2015 International German Piano Award in Frankfurt, the 2014 Vendome Prize held at the Verbier Festival, the 2013 Sendai International Music Competition, and the 2012 William Kapell International Piano Competition. Rachmaninoff’s most popular piano concerto, the Second, is jam-packed with stunningly beautiful harmonies and melodies, sadness, melancholy, love and passion—and music almost anyone would recognize. From the first opening piano solo chords sounding like bells in a church, to magnificent and magical dialogue between clarinet, piano and violins in the second movement, until the grand tutti of orchestra and piano together in the end of the third movement, Rachmaninoff transports everyone—performers and listeners alike—to a unique and wondrous world. Thundering with drama and achingly beautiful, it’s so mesmerizing it calls to be heard over and over. Then—as if the audience isn’t already on the edge of their seat, the orchestra delivers Prokofiev’s lesser-known but highly rousing March in B-flat, Op. 99, before taking them by the hand to hear Tchaikovsky’s unabashedly romantic “Romeo and Juliet” Overture-Fantasy, one of the composer’s most-inspired and passionate melodies, telling the tale of the famous doomed
lovers. Full of tenderness and longing, Shakespeare’s tragedy and Tchaikovsky’s tortured personal life merge to produce the first true expression of his genius as a composer. This tautly constructed masterpiece with its irresistible melodies then gives way to a thrilling orchestral battle featuring fireworks, cannons and brassy fanfare for Tchaikovsky’s “1812” Overture. Tchaikovsky’s exhilarating music, with its distinct brilliant sound and victorious climax, becomes the quintessential conclusion for an evening of fireworks and orchestral music under the stars. As the Symphony welcomes the Huntington Beach Concert Band onstage and St.Clair signals for 16 cannon shots to be fired, fireworks light up the sky and the summer season comes to an unforgettable close. “Wherever Pacific Symphony performs, we dedicate ourselves to ensuring that our Symphony family has an exciting and rewarding experience,” says St.Clair. “This summer has been special, as we settled into our new life in the Pacific Amphitheatre at the OC Fair, and we’re grateful to our loyal patrons who made the move with us. And, of course, we also look forward to welcoming everyone back to the concert hall in September!” Summer Festival 2017 is made possible by supporting sponsors The Orange County Register, Westin South Coast Plaza and media sponsors PBS SoCal, K-Earth 101, KPCC and KUSC.
