San Clemente Choral Society PREPARES FOR SPRING CONCERT The San Clemente Choral Society (SCCS) is busy rehearsing with Artistic Director, Stephen Sturk, for its eighth spring season concert. A 2:00 p.m. matinee and a 7:00 p.m. evening performance are scheduled for May 5, 2012 at St. Andrew’s by-the-Sea Methodist Church in San Clemente. Titled Songs From The Heart, the concert will take the audience on a journey through centuries of music written on the subject of love. Besides the 60 voice choral group, the program will also include several solos and ensembles featuring talented singers from amongst its members. From classical to popular, with a little folk music as well, the hour-long concert will present music to please all musical palates and leave the audience humming the Beatles’ tune, All You Need is Love. An original composition by Artistic Director, Stephen Sturk, called Fuerte Es El Amor, will help to celebrate Cinco De Mayo with a love text sung in Spanish. As in previous concerts, the audience will be invited to participate in some singing as well. Not only will it be a day filled with enjoyable
music, but SCCS’s ever popular opportunity drawings, containing items donated by members, community merchants, and sponsors, will take place at both concerts as well. The San Clemente Choral Society has been preparing since February and promises the audience a beautiful evening of song. Tickets for the concert can be purchased at the door: $15.00 for adults and $5.00 for children five to twelve years. Advance sales at $12.00 for adults and $10.00 for seniors can be arranged by emailing sanclementechoralsociety@gmail.com or by calling (949) 361-8463. To arrange group rates, call (949) 429-1151. The SCCS was created in the fall of 2004 as a communitybased chorus for citizens of South Orange County. It has become a vibrant addition to the cultural opportunities of San Clemente and surrounding communities by providing a place for singers and audiences to enjoy choral music of all types for mixed voices. The SCCS presents two concerts per year, a holiday concert in December, and a spring concert in May. Auditions are not required

The views and opinions expressed are those of the publisher and not any organization. No reproduction, in whole or in part is permitted without the express written permission of San Clemente News. Legal Advertising: The San Clemente News was adjudicated by the Orange County Superior Court as a newspaper of general circulation pursuant to Government Code 6000 case #06CC00655 on March 21, 2006 and as such is the appropriate newspaper to place legal and public notices for the South Orange County Judicial District and the Cities of Dana Point and San Clemente.
Mike Cotter, left, Vice President of the San Clemente Historical Society, receives a historic curb piece from Tony Freeman of Atom Engineering Construction. The bit of concrete reads “O.F. Easley Contractor” -- words which were stamped into the wet concrete when the original curb was poured bordering the park, then known as San Clemente Plaza, in 1926. Oscar F. Easley was San Clemente’s first “commissioner of streets and sidewalks,” and served on the first City Council. In addition to his home, which has since been demolished, Easley built the O.F. Easley building which anchors the top of Avenida Del Mar at 101 S. El Camino Real, also known as the first bank building and “Historic City Hall.” The O.F. Easley stamp is disappearing as old curbs are periodically replaced, but still exist on original curbs around town primarily in the downtown area.
The Plaza, now known as Max Berg Plaza Park, was one of the first places constructed when the city was founded on December 6, 1925. It is currently undergoing a major restoration of its original red tile sidewalk, along with new curbs and other improvements. The Historical Society is currently looking for a place to house its archives and research activities. The Society’s museum has been in storage for a few years, due to a limited budget. Some of its collection is currently on loan to the Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens. For more information, contact Mike Cotter at 949322-6009.

Tony Bennett Returns to Segerstrom Center Multiple Grammy® Award-Winner Tony Bennett Returns to Segerstrom Center for the Arts for One Night Only May 12, 2012 in Segerstrom Hall; tickets on sale now Legendary vocalist Tony Bennett returns to Segerstrom Center for a one-night-only performance on Saturday May 12 at 8 p.m. This will be Bennett’s fifth visit to the Center, singing a program that will include many of the beloved songs that have made him an American icon and an international treasure. With his recently released number one CD, Duets II, Bennett continues to thrill audiences with his heartfelt musical interpretations and his signature style. The New York Times wrote, “Tony Bennett has not just bridged the generation gap, he has demolished it. He has solidly connected with a younger crowd…And there have been no compromises.” This performance is sure to be another sold out Bennett event. Tickets for Tony Bennett start at $66 and are available now at SCFTA.org, by calling (714) 556-2787 and at the Box Office at 600 Town Center Drive in Costa Mesa. For inquiries about group ticket discounts, call the Group Services office at (714) 755-0236. The TTY number is (714) 556-2746. Frank Sinatra called Bennett “the
best singer in the business,” and with a career that spans more than six decades and includes multiple Platinum and Gold albums, Grammy and Emmy awards, a Kennedy Center Honor, a Billboard Magazine Century Award and a Citizen of the World award from the United Nations, he is also among the most acclaimed and enduring singers in the business. Tony Bennett celebrated his 85th birthday this year with a new CD, Duets II, which was released on September 20 on RPM/Columbia Records and made music history by making him the oldest artist to ever have a No. 1 CD on the Billboard album charts. Bennett began the recording process with several artists during Grammy week in February 2011 at LA’s famed Capitol Studios. Subsequent recording sessions in New York, Nashville and Italy rounded out the completion of the CD. Featured with him on Duets II are Lady Gaga, Michael Bublé, Aretha Franklin, Mariah Carey and the late Amy Winehouse, whose last recording session was for this project. Duets II, produced by Phil Ramone follows up Tony Bennett Duets: An American Classic CD, the 2006 Grammy winning CD which became the singer’s best-selling CD to date.
Bennett has also received critical acclaim for his television appearances, including an Emmy Award and Cable Ace Award for his groundbreaking television special, Live By Request...Tony Bennett, featuring a unique interactive format in which the viewing audience called in song requests during the program. This groundbreaking concept, created by Bennett, eventually evolved into a series on the A&E network and was an on-air favorite for nine years. Bennett was also the subject of a major television special, Tony Bennett: An American Classic, which aired on NBC in Autumn 2006 and won seven Emmy Awards. Bennett is also a talented painter. He has exhibited his work in galleries around the world, and was chosen to be the official artist of the 2001 Kentucky Derby, creating two paintings in celebration of the iconic event. The United Nations also commissioned two paintings from him, including one for its 50th anniversary and three of his original paintings are part of the permanent collection in the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, DC. Throughout his career, Bennett has put his heart and time into supporting humanitarian concerns. His many charitable works include raising mil-
lions towards diabetes and lending his artwork to raise funds for the American Cancer Society. In 2007, he was honored by the United Nations for his humanitarian efforts with the Citizen of the World award. Together with his wife, Susan, Bennett established the charitable organization, Exploring the Arts (ETA) to support arts education in public high schools. He founded the Frank Sinatra School of the Arts, a NYC public high school in his hometown of Astoria, Queens and ETA now supports 14 additional NYC public high schools throughout New York City.

According to his lacrosse coach, he was surprised during a game when Johnny blocked a boy on the opposing team causing him to fall to the ground and then stopped to help him up. His remarkable compassion and team spirit is what sets Johnny apart. Athlete’s Choice is pleased to recognize Johnny as Athlete of the Month.

Family Promise Building Communities and strengthening lives in Orange County Did you know that there are approximately 35,000 homeless family members in Orange County today, including 27,000 homeless children? Family Promise of Orange County plans to change the lives of these families and support them on their journey to selfsufficiency. We will celebrate with a ribbon cutting ceremony to inaugurate our new Day Center on May 3, 2012 at 5:15 pm at the First United Methodist Church of Orange, located at 161 S Orange Street, Orange CA 92866. We recognize that poverty is a multifaceted problem that requires a multifaceted response. We respond by integrating educational outreach, smart programming, effective policies, and the hands-on work of thousands of volunteers. We provide food, shelter, and support services for homeless families. We provide advice and advocacy for at-risk families to prevent their becoming homeless. And we educate people about poverty and the means to combat it. We accomplish our work through independent Affiliates in 41 states (and counting). We work communityby-community, guided by experts . . . the people who live there and know
it best. At the heart of each Affiliate is an Interfaith Hospitality Network (IHN). The IHN marshals existing local resources to provide for homeless families as they work to get back on their feet. These resources include available congregational spaces, donated goods, and - most importantly - volunteers. Today, we mobilize more than 150,000 volunteers from coast to coast in our commitment to building communities, strengthening lives. Our Affiliates are nonsectarian. They welcome all clients. Their volunteers come from diverse backgrounds and represent nearly every faith in the United States. Since our founding more than twenty years ago, we have served about 400,000 people, including tens of thousands of homeless families who found temporary homes at our Affiliates. Most of our clients are children. Our proven approach has helped nearly 80 percent of clients secure housing. Our Vision: a nation in which every family has a home, a livelihood, and the chance to build a better future together.
Family Promise of Orange County, CA has become our seventh Affiliate in the Golden State and fourth in the LA area. It also serves as the first of two Orange Counties to open Affiliates this year. While the OC is famous as a wealthy suburb to LA and while much of the county has a high per capita income, homelessness is a major problem. An estimated 1,000 families live in motels in Orange County. This does not even touch the number in shelters, doubled up or staying in cars and other unsuitable sites.
Family Promise of Orange County offers a unique donation method. Simply log on to myregistry.com which is a well known site for gift registry, enter Family Promise in the search field and select Orange County. You will be presented with an opportunity to donate specific items to Family Promise with the confidence of knowning that your gift is greatly needed and appreciated. There are also many volunteer positions available. If you can help... Call 714-787-3488 or online http:// familypromiseorangecounty.org/.

Ensure Justice 2012 Attracts Top Leaders to Combat Human Trafficking
Rhonda Sciortino, Sandra Morgan, Dr. Carol Taylor
The beautiful Santa Ana Country Club combined with the mellow sounds of the Vanguard Jazz Ensemble was a perfect setting for the Inaugural Global Center for Women and Justice Gala. As opening night of the annual two-day conference, “Ensure Justice 2012: Standing Together to End the Exploitation of Girls,” the event attracted leaders from the front line in communities across our country to learn from the experience and expertise of judges, law enforcement, doctors, nurses, social workers, educators, and community faith leaders. Organizer Sandra Morgan, GCWJ Director and former Orange County Human Trafficking Task Force Administrator, served as mistress of ceremonies to more than 150 guests who left the awareness-raising event having a profound understanding of the human trafficking travesty. Morgan stirred hearts with reports on her recent trip to Iraq on behalf of women and her commitment to educating our communities to prevent sexual exploitation in our own backyard and globally. “Justice for Children” was the theme of Keynote Speaker Rhonda Sci- Linda Kollar, Carissa Phelps, Connie Clendenan ortino, radio show host of CRACK THE CODE on KTIE 590 and author of Succeed Because of What You’ve Been Through. She asked attendees to support the important mission of research and education in addressing injustice for children.

SMALL CHURCH RAISES $10,000 FOR MUSIC ENRICHMENT AT LOCAL SCHOOL New Hope Presbyterian Church is on a mission to keep music alive in local schools. To meet this goal, the 80 member strong church, located in Orange, raised over $10,000 last fall to support music enrichment opportunities for youth throughout Orange County. Through its annual Hope Alive! benefit concert, the church raises funds to provide workshops, clinics, lessons and performance opportunities for youth. In addition to hosting a summer music academy, New Hope adopted Willard Intermediate School in Santa Ana. When this school lost its music programming, due to the State’s financial crisis, the church helped to keep the music alive by sending professional musicians to the school who provided lessons and clinics at the after school program. On April 12, 2012 the Hope Alive! Orchestra will perform three thirty-minute concerts at the school to inspire the students and motivate them to achieve. This exhilarating performance will include a musical presentation from the Santa Ana High School Mariachi Band. The show will conclude with a rousing finale of Queen’s We Will Rock You, with the entire student body chanting the song’s title as a call to academic success. Thursday, April 12, 2012 8:45, 9:45, 10:45 am (three assembly performances) Presented by New Hope Presbyterian Church of Orange At Willard Intermediate School, 1342 North Ross Street, Santa Ana, CA 92706 Page 14

excitement brings out the nascar fans
Logano burnout
Photography by William Casper Story by Christine Bobadilla It’s racing time again at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California the home of 5 wide racing. There is lots of excitement planned for everyone attending this weekend’s NASCAR Sprint Cup and NASCAR Nationwide Series event. The weekend kicks off on Thursday, March 22 with the annual Hauler Parade. Stretching nearly an entire mile front to back, starting at Citizens Bank Arena in Ontario winding through Rancho Cucamonga then ending its journey at Auto Club Speedway. Fans watching the parade from Bass Pro Shops in Rancho Cucamonga were treated to an autograph and photo session with Jamie McMurray, driver of the Bass Pro Shops #1 car. Friday’s fans gather in droves to watch the practice sessions and qualifying for both the Sprint Cup and Nationwide series drivers. One new event added to this weekend is a celebrity FundRacing qualifying event called the DRIVE4COPD Pro-Am Celebrity Racing Challenge which will feature well known faces in entertainment, music and business who will take the wheel of a NASCAR stock car to support awareness, screenings and research for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The star-studded race is created in partnership with COPD Foundation in support of DRIVE4COPD, the Official Health Initiative of NASCAR. Saturday marks the running of the Nationwide Royal Purple 300. This year’s Grand Marshall was none other than U.S. Olympic Medalist and reality television star Bruce Jenner. Starting on the pole was Joey Logano, driver of the #18 car, and after holding off Ricky Stenhouse Jr and Brad Kesolowski for most of the race brought victory home for himself and Joe Gibbs
Racing. Logano was the youngest winner in Nationwide history three years ago and now has 10 victories under his belt at the ripe old age of 21. Logano is the first Sprint Cup driver to win Nationwide race this season, claiming his second career win at Auto Club Speedway. Sunday’s festivities kick off with the annual Coca Cola Family Track Walk; this event is free to all race fans attending the Sprint Cup Auto Club 400. Fans get to walk the track and experience its 14 degree banking as well as meet fellow Coca Cola family members Ryan Newman and Bobby Labonte. Fans attending were also treated to the pre-race concert featuring 80’s rock sensation Night Ranger. Then it’s on the final event of the day that everyone is waiting for, the running of the Auto Club 400. Even with rain clouds looming in the distance, fans and drivers alike knew they were in for a short day on a long track; fans still stood to their feet and cheered for their favorite driver. Starting on the pole for Sunday’s race was Denny Hamlin with a qualifying lap time of 186.403 with his team mate Kyle Busch starting second at 185.534 mph, but nobody did a better job racing until the raindrops fell than the race winner Tony Stewart. After starting 9th and taking the lead in a total of 42 laps in a 43 car field, Stewart got his second NASCAR victory of the season when rain shortened the race by 71 laps, extending the Sprint Cup Champion’s unusually strong start. Kyle Busch finished second, and Dale Earnhardt Jr added to his good start to the season in third. “You hate to have it end with rain like that” Stewart said. “But we’ve lost some that way, and we didn’t back into the lead by staying out (during a pit stop)”. Stewart has captured 7 of the last 15 races, including Las Vegas last month, in a remarkable stretch of dominance

Four District Schools Named Among State’s Best Capistrano Unified School District is home to four 2012 California Distinguished Schools, State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Torlakson announced on Thursday. George White, Moulton, and Oak Grove elementary schools, and Carl Hankey K-8 School are among the 387 California public schools to be selected for the honor. These awards mark the 59thtime a school in CUSD has won the award. “This award reinforces what we already know to be true—some of the best instruction in the state takes place in this District’s classrooms,” Board President Dr. Gary Pritchard said. “I want to congratulate the dedicated teachers and principals, supportive parents and community members, and hardworking students and staff at each of these schools. It takes a significant contribution from each and every single member of those school communities for our schools to be successful.” This is Oak Grove’s third time being named a California Distinguished School. Its previous awards were in 1999 and
2004. This is the second time for both George White and Moulton. George White previously won in 1995, while Moulton was honored in 1997. This is Hankey’s first California Distinguished School award. Last year, Ladera Ranch and Newhart middle schools were named 2011 California Distinguished Schools. “It is always nice when our schools are recognized for their hard work in preparing our students for college and career,” Superintendent Joe Farley said. “Being named a California Distinguished School is more than just another award—it is acknowledgement that the instructional practices currently in place are effective, and should be replicated in other schools.” The 2012 California Distinguished School Award program identifies and honors those schools that have demonstrated educational excellence for all students and progress in narrowing the achievement gap. “The schools we are recognizing today demonstrate the incredible commitment of California’s

teachers, administrators, and school employees to provide a world-class education to every student, in spite of the financial hardships facing our state and our schools,” Torlakson said in a statement. “Their dedication is inspiring, and I applaud and admire their passion and persistence.” To be invited to apply for Distinguished School honors, schools must meet a variety of eligibility criteria, including designated federal and state accountability measures. Once schools are deemed eligible, they are invited to apply for the award. Elementary
and secondary schools are recognized in alternate years. This year focuses on elementary schools. Schools earning the Distinguished School title agree to share their signature practices with other schools and serve as mentors to other educators who want to replicate their work. An updated searchable database of these Signature Practices will be available later this spring. To view the current Signature Practices Web site, please visit: http://bit. ly/6GyrrC.

See The Lyrids Meteor Shower on Catalina Island Wishing on a star for a great romantic getaway idea? Try heading out for the weekend with your sweetheart this April 21st to Catalina Island. There will be no better chance this year for such a perfect hand-holding and stargazing opportunity. The Lyrids Meteor Shower will be visible across the lower forty-eight states on this Saturday night. While there are five more meteor showers expected this year, April 21st, 2012 will be the warmest time of the year with the best visibility. With a new moon in the sky, the heavenly starscape will be unencumbered by moonlight. Catalina’s convenient location “26 miles” from the California coast will also be far from the lights of the big city. If you plan to go, book ahead just to be safe. The Seaport Village offers excellent rates and is about a 2 minute walk up from Step Beach and the center of town. Located atop a hill, Seaport Village is also above any lights from weekend night life. The sun will be setting at 6:43 p.m. this evening. Enjoy the lawn and pull out some chairs on this smoke-free property where you can bring a dinner picnic. April is still considered “the slow season” on Catalina so expect the island and its beautiful beaches to be almost empty: perfect for romantic strolls
together. The quaint size of Catalina’s main city of Avalon means safe nights and a ten minute walk from any hotel to the beaches in town. Take a blanket with you to Descanso Beach as the view of the water and the cities across the sea is superb. For dinner picnics I recommend picking up an order (or two!) of Volcano Sushi from C. C. Gallaghers paired with one of their excellent selections of saki. A bottle of wine or one of their delectable desserts is an after dinner option. The most romantic dining options in Avalon are found at Steve’s Steak House or the Villa Portofino restaurant. In case the sky clouds up (not likely) or you are the type of couple that likes to make your own sparks, plan to get your “wiki whacked” listening to live music at Luau Larry’s, or enjoy one of the great variety of brews and an order of “monkey balls” at The Lobster Trap. Check to see if Roger Connelly’s Blues Band is playing at any of the island’s plenteous bars for a special Chicago style treat. If you are really adventurous, stop for a drink at the Catherine Hotel which is supposedly haunted. Currently, they are the only establishment in Avalon that serves Kraken Rum, a must for any piratey adventures. Stop at the El Galleon restaurant after 9 p.m. for the crazy karaoke. Remember, everyone there is on vacation, too, so the
Stop Dreaming.
song fest often gets pretty wild… and no one will remember you later! If you are braver still, head up to the Chi Chi Club for hip hop dancing. Jaegerbombs and strobe lights will have you seeing stars before the clock chimes midnight. Plan to have a little day time fun before or after the meteor shower festivities. The boat ride over from Long Beach or Dana Point may offer a few dolphin sightings, but braving a dive off the waters of Catalina is well worth it. Catalina Snorkel & Scuba exclusively offers guided tours in a marine reserve at Lover’s Cove. How fitting is that for a romantic weekend? They provide wetsuits and all the gear and will feed the fish for you to get up close and personal. They also offer introduction to scuba
classes at Casino Dive Park. Divers from all over the country visit Catalina to see their giant black sea bass, octopi, garibaldi, and blissful kelp forests. Schedule an undersea boat tour with if you just can’t stand the thought of getting wet. The historic movie theater at “The Casino” will have a movie playing at 7:30 p.m. Gazing the art deco architecture, interior decoration and gold leaf painted murals with your sweetheart is well worth paying the price of admission alone. Arrive half an hour early to listen to the antique organ concert. Parasail tours, bicycle and boat rentals, golfing, and zipline tours are all available in April as well so start planning for the sparks to fly on Catalina this April 21st.

Spectacular spring flowers
San Diego boasts beautiful weather year round, but springtime is one of the best times to visit. Balboa Park offers garden tours and the landscape becomes filled with brilliant colors just before the start of the season. The stunning Inez Grant Parker Memorial Rose Garden displays approximately 2,500 roses of nearly 200 varieties on a three-acre site full of fragrance, color, and
beauty. Today’s garden, a designated All America Rose Selection (AARS) Display Garden, is in bloom from March through December, with the roses usually at their peak in April and May. Located across from the San Diego Natural History Museum, it is accessible by the Park Boulevard pedestrian bridge.
Visit the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park , just east of San Diego in Borrego Springs, between February and April and you’ll be rewarded with a spectacular display of colorful wildflowers that cover the sunscorched desert landscape, making for a magnificent site. Anza-Borrego Desert State Park is the largest state park in California. Five hundred miles of dirt roads, 12
wilderness areas and many miles of hiking trails provide visitors with an unparalleled opportunity to experience the wonders of the California Desert. The park is named for Spanish explorer Juan Bautista de Anza and the Spanish word borrego, or bighorn sheep. The park features washes, wildflowers, palm groves,
cacti and sweeping vistas. Visitors may also have the chance to see roadrunners, golden eagles, kit foxes, mule deer and bighorn sheep as well as iguanas, chuckwallas and the red diamond rattlesnake. Listening devices for the hearing impaired are available in the visitor center. The Park is located on the eastern side of San Diego County, with portions extending east into Imperial County and north into Riverside County. It is about a two-hour drive from San Diego, Riverside, and Palm Springs. Many visitors approach from the east or west via Highways S22 and 78. From the coast, these highways descend from the heights of the Peninsular range of mountains with spectacular views of the great bowl of the Colorado Desert. High-
way S2 enters the park from the south off of Interstate 8. If you’re in San Diego over the weekend of April 21-22, you can attend the Coronado Flower Show. It’s one of the largest flower shows in the nation. In addition to beautiful landscape displays and floral competitions, there’ll be live entertainment as well as plants and gorgeous bouquets available to purchase. The Coronado Flower Show is held in Spreckels Park in the center of Coronado’s Village, along Orange Avenue, between 6th & 7th Streets. This is the largest flower show held under tents in the nation. Exhibits are placed inside tents surrounding a central gazebo, which becomes the stage for continuous entertainment, announcements and trophy presentations.
