“Cowboy Up.”was the slogan of the Pro Rodeo Tour, the slogan of bull riders and rodeo competitors at every level of the game. No matter how hard the hit, whatever the level of injury, a cowboy didn’t stay down. He got up and shook off the pain...’Cowboy Up’ the words had come to define the cowboy mentality, the rodeo way of life. Riders had two choices: Cowboy Up or go home. ~Dan Daily, World Champion Bronc Rider The San Clemente News

Simple Meets Special for Summertime Brunch Gathering with friends and family for brunch is a fun and budgetfriendly entertaining alternative. To transform a brunch celebration from average to outstanding, follow some simple tips from Hollywood chef and caterer Paul McCullough. “Brunches are the entertaining solution for any occasion. They’re great for baby showers, birthdays, family reunions, weddings, or just gathering for fun. There’s something revitalizing about friends and family coming together in the late morning, enjoying great food, coffee and conversation,” says McCullough. To get started, plan the menu around one of McCullough’s simple, yet crowd-pleasing recipes: Coffee Granita: Brew two cups of double strength coffee. Pour into a bowl and stir in a quarter cup of sugar until dissolved. Cool to room temperature. Mix in one-half cup half and half. Place in an 8-inch square dish and freeze two to two and a half hours. After the first hour, use a fork to scrape up the coffee crystals; scrape again at the second hour mark. Keep in the freezer until ready to serve. For an upscale presentation, serve in a martini glass and top with whipped cream and shaved chocolate. McCullough recommends using Starbucks Natural Fusions Vanilla
flavored coffee for this refreshing treat because unlike other flavored coffees, it’s made with natural flavors and real ingredients - like vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg - blended right in with the coffee. Super Hero Scramble: Mix one pound sautéed spinach, one pound browned and crumbled turkey sausage, and one-half cup julienned sundried tomatoes, then set aside. Scramble eggs until almost done but still soft. Fold the spinach mixture through; then sprinkle with eight ounces of seasoned feta. “A brunch should incorporate elements of breakfast and lunch with harmony. Contrast sweets like blueberry muffins and coffee-glazed scones with savory elements, like smoked salmon with capers and onions. Or try a scramble with new flavor combinations like chicken and asparagus or crab and avocado with a dollop of sour cream and chives,” McCullough suggests. Once you’ve decided on the menu, set the stage for a special morning with these fresh presentation ideas: * Liven up bread baskets by lining them with fresh rosemary for added color and aroma. * A cheese board makes for an attractive and functional display. Create the perfect mix of flavors
with this twist on a familiar adage: Something old, something new, something smoked, something blue (e.g., aged cheddar, fresh bocconcini mozzarella, smoked Gouda and blue cheese). Water crackers and sliced baguettes will round out the presentation nicely. * Create centerpiece arrangements using colorful veggies like Swiss chard, kale, parsley and bok choy. These beautiful and unique displays will cost less money than flowers, and can be incorporated into a meal
in the near future. * An omelet bar requires a fair amount of prep work for all the toppings, but it’s a real favorite for guests and a sure way to satisfy picky eaters. Just remember to keep the guest list small or enlist a co-chef to handle all the enthusiastic orders. Owner of Paul’s Kitchen catering business, McCullough specializes in classic American cuisine and is known for his simple and down-toearth approach to cooking, resulting in upscale food that’s not uptight.
Don’t Let Back-to-School Tasks Sneak up on You By Jason Alderman Parents, if this is your first time at the back-to-school rodeo, let me share a few lessons my wife and I have learned the hard way. Chances are you’ll be spending the next few weeks filling out piles of pre-enrollment paperwork, lining up carpools and, of course, taking the dreaded shopping excursions for clothes and school supplies. If you’re a first-timer or simply need a back-to-school refresher course, here are a few suggestions that can help you save time, money and sanity: Get organized. Maintain a correspondence file from your kid’s school for things like registration requirements, report cards, permission slips, required vaccinations, school policies, teacher and parent contact information, etc. Ask whether the school has a website, online calendar or email list you can join. Also, create a family master calendar. Back-to-school shopping. Between new clothes, classroom supplies and extracurricular activity fees and equipment, many parents end up spending hundreds of dollars per child. Ideally, you’ve been setting money aside all year. If not, you’ll need to determine what you can afford to spend without blowing your Page 6
overall budget. Here are a few organizational and money-saving tips: • Before you shop, make a comprehensive list for each child. Use previous years’ expenses as a guide and compare notes with other parents and school officials. • Engage your kids in the budgeting process. Share how much money is available to spend and get them involved in prioritizing expenses between “needs” and “wants.” • Go through your kids’ closets and have them try on everything. Make an inventory of items that fit and are in good shape, and take it when shopping so you don’t accidentally buy duplicates. (While you’re at it, share, sell or donate unneeded items.) • Spread clothing purchases throughout the year so your kids don’t outgrow everything at once. Many stores hold fall clearance sales to make room for holiday merchandise. • Review the school’s dress code so you don’t waste money on inappropriate clothing. • Although shopping online can save money, time and gas, don’t forget to factor in shipping and return costs, which could undo any net savings. If your kids are old enough, put them in charge of online
The San Clemente News
comparison shopping and coupon clipping. • Ask which school supplies you’re expected to buy. Go in with other families to take advantage of volume discounts and sales. • Find out how much extracurricular activities (athletics, music, art, etc.) cost. Account for uniforms, membership dues, private lessons, field trips, snacks, etc. • Rent or buy used sporting equipment or musical instruments until you’re sure they’ll stick with an activity. • Know when to spend more for higher quality. Cheaper notebook paper shouldn’t matter, but don’t buy poorly made shoes that might hamper proper physical development. • Before buying new clothing or accessories, look for “gently used” items in the closets of your older kids and friends, at garage sales, thrift and consignment stores and online. • Clip newspaper and online coupons. Many stores will match competitors’ prices even if their own items aren’t on sale. Plus, many consolidation websites post downloadable coupons and sale codes for online retailers, including: CouponCabin.com, CouponCode. com, CouponCraze.com, DealHunting.com and Dealnews. com.
• Mobile shopping apps let in-store smartphone and mobile browser users scan product barcodes and make on-the-spot price comparisons, read reviews, download coupons, buy products and more. • Follow your favorite retailers on Facebook and Twitter, where many post special savings for their followers. Bottom line: If you get organized before setting out on back-to-school shopping, you can save money, time and aggravation. Jason Alderman directs Visa’s financial education programs.

Viejo Rodeo, now celebrating its 10 year anniversary at the scenic Rancho Mission Viejo Riding Park at San Juan Capistrano! “Hosting the Rancho Mission Viejo Rodeo for the past 10 years has allowed us to share our proud Western heritage; and we are pleased to once again bring the sport of rodeo to our south Orange County neighbors,” said Gilbert Aguirre, Rodeo Committee President and Executive Vice President, Ranch Operations at Rancho Mission Viejo. “All eyes in the world of rodeo are on San Juan Capistrano as the superstars of professional rodeo compete for one of the largest purses offered anywhere – in one of the best rodeo venues ever!” Sanctioned by the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association
(PRCA), the Rancho Mission Viejo Rodeo has earned a reputation as “the place to be” every August as the greatest cowboys in America gather to compete for prize money and for a cherished spot at the National Finals Rodeo, held every December in Las Vegas, NV. This year’s Rancho Mission Viejo Rodeo will include many of the best and most famous cowboys competing in: Bareback Riding, Saddle Bronc Riding, Steer Wrestling, Tie Down Roping, Team Roping, and Bull Riding. Plus, Rodeo attendees will be invited to enjoy old-fashioned family fun both days of the Rodeo with games, music, an evening concert with dancing, and more than fifty different vendors and lots of entertainment for the whole family! “We welcome everyone to the Rodeo,” said Aguirre. “The Ranch family is proud of its ranching heritage and holds dear to the authentic and honest values embraced by the American cowboy. We are committed to the preservation of the cowboy way of life right here at Rancho Mission Viejo.” The Rancho Mission Viejo Rodeo is good old entertainment for the entire family, not to mention the richest 2-day rodeo in the nation with a purse totaling over $200,000. The top 30 rodeo contestants in saddle bronc and bareback riding, tie-down roping, steer wrestling, bull riding
and team roping will come to San Juan Capistrano for this chance of a lifetime. Celebrating the golden age of early California history and the American West, Rancho Mission Viejo has committed to the preservation of the cowboy way of life. Carrying on the cowboy tradition of “passing the hat” in support of a sick child or needy friend, all proceeds from the rodeo will benefit local charities. The Ranch family made the commitment to sponsor and conduct the annual Rodeo to help perpetuate the tradition of rodeo and to pay tribute to the sport, to the heritage of the land, and to raise funds for local charities. To date, The Rodeo has distributed more than $1.3 million to local charities in San Juan Capistrano and continues to provide support for important San Juan Capistrano charities. The funds raised help honor the old cowboy tradition of “passing the hat” in support of a family in need. Over the years, all proceeds from the Rancho Mission Viejo Rodeo have been donated to such charities as CHOC at Mission Hospital and J.F. Shea Therapeutic Riding Center. Admission: Adults – $30, Kids (4 to 12 years) – $10, 3 & Under – Free * Parking included w/ purchase of Adult ticket For more information go to: rmvrodeo.com

Fashion Gets Re-cycled At Laguna Beach Festival of Arts The Laguna Beach Festival of Arts “Festival Runway Fashion Show” was a crowd-awing hit this year as Festival exhibitors competed to win cash prizes showing off their recycled creations where fashion meets art. The show is somewhat like “Project Runway” where artists are pitted against each other to see who would create the most inspired couture using reclaimed, reused or recycled material. In its sixth year, the show offered cash prizes of $1,000 in four of the categories. “Festival Runway Fashion is one of the Festivals most popular events of the summer,” said Susan Davis, director of special events for the Festival of Arts. “Every year seems to up the ante, and this year certainly didn’t disappoint!” Celebrity fashion critic known for his “Best and Worst Dressed” list, Steven “Cojo” Cojocaru moved from his post as a celebrity judge at last year’s runway show to celebrity host this year. With his quick humor and somewhat off colored jokes, taking the stage you could feel he loved the spotlight. Selecting the winners were a panel of judges with fashion and artistic backgrounds including celebrity judge supermodel Kim Alexis. Alexis has been featured in over 500 magazine covers, worked as a fashion correspondent on Good Morning America and appeared in countless commercials. Also judging the couture was Laguna College of Art and Design (LCAD) President Jonathan Burke and production and set designer Nelson Coates. Competing for the top prizes were festival exhibitors Luciano Bortone, Antje Campbell, W. Bradley Elsberry, Richard A. Evans, Jessica deSteano, Elizabeth McGhee, Adam Neeley, Mariana Nelson, Jon Seeman, Dan Skaggs, John Tolle, and Kirstin Whalen. Winners who walked away with bragging rights for the categories were Brad Elsberry for Most Creative Concept. With a dramatic entrance of a cape covered model (the cape was recycled drapes purchased from a Thrift Shop) underneath, his model walked the runway with about 40 pounds of various recycled copper wiring wrapped around her. Kirstin Whalen won for Most Exciting Ensemble with a fun creation made out of maps, with the title of her piece appropriately named “Queen of the Road”. With the bodice cut from an old pillow case, painted and embellished with bicycle tires to look like lace, the skirt consisted of old AAA maps with a bicycle tire belt and a sprocket reflector buckle. Most Innovative Use of Materials went to Antje Campbell; with textures of steel, glass, wood that were integrated together to create the inspiration from characteristics of one of her favorite Frank Gehry buildings located in her home country of Germany – Parisier Platz in Berlin. Adam Neeley took home both the Most Glamorous “Red Carpet” Worthy Creation and the People’s Choice award for his ensemble “Oceana” – a haute couture inspired by the ocean. The hand-crafted burlap fascinator was adorned with found flowers and shells with a necklace made from cork, speaker wire, pink salt, sugar pearl, and leaves. The skirt was creatively put together from window screens, Tiffany tissue paper, cellophane, 38 yards of brown craft paper perforated and painted with rust-oleum and glitter to give it a couture look! As one of the nation’s oldest and most highly acclaimed juried fine art shows, the Festival of Arts features the artwork of 140 award-winning artists. Patrons can enjoy the work of exhibiting artists, demonstrations and art workshops, daily art tours, live music, special events, dine at on-site restaurants and much more. The Laguna Beach Festival of Arts continues through August 30th, visit LagunaFestivalofArts.org for more information. Page 12

C A cheery scarf tied to a purse adds a touch of whimsy — and keeps this practical accessory close at hand.
Pretty gold charms not only look stylish, they make great conversation pieces.
FAMILY FEATURES
“A girl should be two things: classy and fabulous.” — Coco Chanel
You may have heard the saying that everything old is new again, but there are some things that just never go out of style. But what is “classic style” — and how can you incorporate those special touches into your every day? Jane Lilly Warren, Katie Armour and Fallon Hogerty are the creative forces behind www.MatchbookMag.com, an online magazine that serves as a “guide to a charmed life.” The women of Matchbook delight in a variety of classic styles and icons — from Chanel and Jackie O to contemporary style — makers such as John Derian and Jemma Kidd. Here, they share the basics about classic style for home décor as well as for the wardrobe.
What defines classic style?
n
“A classic is something that has stood the test of time and proven to be the best in its class,” said Warren. “It’s of high quality and is meant to last to be passed on through the generations.” Warren says that while you might invest in an H & M shirt that will last a couple of seasons, a Lacoste polo will be around — and in style — long enough to hand down to your kids. “There’s definitely a timelessness to these things,” said Hogerty, “they have an ability to transcend eras.” Modern takes on vintage designs are cropping up all over the place. From the clothes modeled on fashion runways to the paint colors in your local hardware store, there seems to be a bit of a retro revival going on. Armour isn’t surprised. “The world is changing faster than ever,” she said, “and we have seen such instability over the past few years in a vast array of sectors, that I think people are embracing the classics, in part, out of the stability and comfort that they provide.” The women also noted that as budgets have tightened, people want to shop smarter. This means investing in items that won’t go out of style and won’t break the bank.
How to incorporate classic style into your life
n
n
To get some classic style on a budget: n n n n
Rummage through flea markets for underappreciated, timeless gems at a steal. Visit consignment shops for wardrobe bargains. Spruce up what you have — a coat of paint on a piece of furniture can do wonders. A little pizzazz goes a long way. Maybe you can’t afford the yards of lavish fabric you want for curtains or a sofa — but try using some for a throw pillow.
Top 5 classic pieces for your home:
If you’d like to bring some freshly vintage style to your home or wardrobe, the Matchbook mavens have these tips:
Page 14
n
Study the classic tastemakers, such as Jackie Kennedy Onassis. By studying, one can get an idea of what classic pieces will stand the test of time. When buying that new coat or pair of shoes, think about what is well made and will last through the years — those will invariably be the classics in your wardrobe. When it comes to color, black is always in style and can complement any outfit. Black slacks, ballet flats, cardigan or coat — you can’t go wrong. Short red nails, black mascara — sometimes it’s the simple things that add a classic pep to your step.
1. Monogrammed towels 2. Good china (Finish your set with pieces from www.replacements.com or www.chinaandcrystal.com.)
The San Clemente News
3. Fine art that speaks to you (Some resources for inexpensive art: www.art.com, www.20x200.com, www.ugallery.com.) 4. Fresh blooms — they’ll brighten up any room 5. Unique, over-sized coffee table books (about your favorite artists, vacation destinations, fashion designers, etc.) can take a coffee table from boring to spectacular
Top 10 classic musts for every wardrobe:
1. A crisp, well-fitted white oxford 2. Black cigarette pants 3. A trench coat 4. A cashmere sweater (Land’s End is a great resource for cashmere, both inexpensive and high-quality.) 5. Black ballet flats 6. Little black dress 7. Flattering pair of dark wash denim jeans 8. A black pencil skirt 9. A wrap dress (they’re flattering on nearly every figure) 10. Invest in one trendy piece per season which you can add to your classic wardrobe.
Classic jewelry and accessories:
1. Pearl studs (high quality replicas are just as good as the real thing) 2. A pearl necklace 3. Yellow-gold charm bracelet 4. Dark sunglasses 5. A silk square scarf (to tie around your hair or your handbag)

Living a Stylish Life Embracing the spirit of classic style is about more than what you wear or how you decorate your home. The creators of www.MatchbookMag.com say it’s about approaching life with certain joie de vivre that celebrates even the little things that make life a bit more stylish. In their eyes, that Matchbook-type girl: n Views the world through rosecolored glasses. n Loves to throw dinner parties, but has been known to burn the roast. n Is the first to laugh at her own bad jokes. n Paints her nails bright coral when she’s feeling blue. n Is infinitely curious and always up for a grand adventure. n Could happily live off of red velvet cake. n Has a signature shade of lipstick. n Pens hand-written notes to her grandmother. n Has a skip in her step and a twinkle in her eye.

Didier Gimonnet: Maintaining Tradition in Champagne HAPPY GRAPES
By David White “Gimmonet is not trendy,” explained Didier Gimonnet, a third-generation vigneron in Champagne. “It’s unfashionable.” During a recent visit to Gimonnet’s estate, the two of us were chatting about the growing popularity of Champagne’s “new wave” producers. While those who are “moving in the direction of single expressions” singlevineyard wines from a single vintage are garnering lots of praise from writers and sommeliers, Gimonnet believes such wines are “always less complex, less interesting, and less capable of aging.” Fighting words. But if any winemaker has the credentials to make such an argument, it’s Didier Gimonnet. The Gimonnets have been growing grapes in Champagne since 1750 and making wine since 1935, when
Didier’s grandfather, Pierre, began bottling estate Champagne in Cuis, a village in the heart of the Côte des Blancs. Today, Didier and his brother, Olivier, farm 64 acres of vineyards, mostly split between the grand cru villages of Cramant and Chouilly and the premier cru village of Cuis. Almost all their grapes are Chardonnay, with their oldest fruit coming off vines planted in 1911. Their average vines are 40 years old. Gimonnet was one of the first producers in the portfolio of Terry Thiese, the rabble-rousing wine importer who introduced America to grower Champagne. Since the dawn of global wine consumption, large producers like Moet & Chandon, Louis Roederer, and Veuve Clicquot have dominated the Champagne market. These companies purchase their grapes from thousands of growers across the region and blend their wines to deliver a consistent product each year. In 1997, Thiese began importing “farmer fizz,” or Champagne produced by the farmers who grow the grapes. His timing was perfect, as Americans were becoming interested in the source of their food. Growers in Thiese’s portfolio quickly became popular, with producers like Gimonnet, Pierre Peters, ChartogneTaillet, and Vilmart & Cie landing in top restaurants and retailers across the country. Consumers appreciated the
fact that these wines had personality -- and couldn’t be found at the local corner store. Plus, growers offered a good value, as they didn’t have the marketing expenses or bureaucratic bloat of large Champagne houses. Indeed, while growers accounted for just 0.62 percent of America’s Champagne market in 1997, they now account for nearly 5 percent of it. That percentage continues to rise. In many ways, Gimonnet was the perfect gateway grower for American consumers. Inspired by the traditions of Champagne, Didier has always been obsessed with blending. So in his search for balance, he looks to Cuis for freshness and Cramant and Chouilly for richness. He has never made a single-vineyard wine -- and promises he never will. “Most people think grand cru is better than premier cru,” he said. “[But] the best wines are a blend of the best terroirs, regardless of classification.” Didier also eschews oak, as he believes it overpowers Chardonnay’s delicacy. The resulting wines are elegant, always marked by pure fruit and fresh acid. “For me, the consumer must salivate,” he explained. “You can’t be tired to enjoy a wine.” American oenophiles have had nearly two decades to wrap their heads around grower Champagne. So while they’ll always love
benchmark growers like Gimonnet, many are now turning their attention towards winemakers who approach Champagne as if it’s Burgundy. Gimonnet believes these producers are on the wrong track, as they’re ignoring some of Champagne’s important traditions. I disagree. The wines from those pursuing a “single expression” -- folks like Olivier Collin, Cédric Bouchard, Jérôme Prévost, and Frédéric Savart -- are some of the most exciting in the world, in large part because they’re so distinctive. Fortunately, one can never have too much Champagne. So in my cellar, there’s plenty of room for both the old guard and the new wave. David White is the founder and editor of Terroirist.com, which was named “Best Overall Wine Blog” at the 2013 Wine Blog Awards. His columns are housed at Grape Collective.
Art-A-Fair Artists Come Together to Celebrate Return to Freedom
Return to Freedom, American Wild Horse Sanctuary (RTF) has been working tirelessly to protect America’s wild horses for over fifteen years. Founded by Neda DeMayo in 1997, RTF rescues entire herds, conserves rare breeds, educates tens of thousands of people on the benefit of a natural world, and lobbies for policies to protect the wild horse and its place on our American landscape Art-A-Fair Fine Art Festival now being held in Laguna Beach, CA has joined the fight to protect our wild horses, as selected artists from this year’s juried Festival are sharing in the painting of an official wild horse sculpture. Artists are now painting live in front of Art-A-Fair attendees through August 25 and have a great opportunity to meet the artists and to be photographed with the first sculpture to support this worthy cause. The horse will be sold to benefit RTF on August 26 and proceeds will be presented to Return to Freedom to support their programs, including protecting the freedom, diversity and habitat of America’s wild horses. The Art-A-Fair Return to Freedom
Horse benefit will be the kick off of the partnership between Breton Associates and RTF, to produce “A Horse of a Different Color” (HDC) a traveling/for purchase art exhibit, where celebrity supporters will ultimately paint 50 to 60 mustangs to benefit the Sanctuary. Breton Associates, producers of the recent, and very successful Elephant Parade America, has created (HDC) to raise much-needed funds and awareness for the plight of America’s wild mustangs. Modeled after the hugely successful Elephant Parade America, which raised almost $300,000 in the US for the endangered Asian Elephant, HDC will begin the campaign with colorful and unique hand painting of twodozen, three quarter size fiberglass equine statues painted by celebrities and notables in the horse world.

The Pageant of the Masters is the Festival of Arts’ crowning jewel and arguably one of the most unique productions in the entire world. It is world-renowned in the artistry and theatrical illusion of living pictures. Each night during the summer season
at 8:30 the Festival of Arts presents this famous attraction. A ninety-minute stage show of “living pictures” – incredibly faithful art re-creations of classical and contemporary works with real people posing to look exactly like their counterparts in the original pieces. An outdoor amphitheater, professional orchestra, original score, live narration, intricate sets, sophisticated lighting, expert staff, and hundreds of dedicated volunteers have won recognition for the Pageant as the best presentation of its kind. Everyone loves a good mystery, especially in the world of art. You don’t have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure out whodunit when The Art Detective, the 2014 Pageant of the Masters, is on the case. The Festival of Art’s world famous theatrical celebration of art in tableaux vivants – “living pictures” – will reveal how lost treasures were discovered, where crimes of passion were uncovered (or covered up) and how creative riddles were unraveled, with a gallery of the world’s great masterpieces providing the clues! The stories and revelations are sure to provide fun for the whole family and be anything but elementary.

Long, cold months stuck inside can give any family cabin fever. Fortunately, winter is over and warmer weather has returned. That means it’s time to get outside and enjoy the great outdoors with your family. If you love the idea of heading outside but you’re worried about the malodors and messes that might come as side effects of fun outdoor activities, Enjoy these carefree activities with the whole family. * Plan a family bike ride. Who says bikes are just for kids? Bike rides can be enjoyed by the whole family and they’re great exercise as well. Don’t be afraid to go off the beaten path - opt for a trail ride as opposed to riding down busy streets. This will be safer for everyone and give the experience a more natural feel. If you’re unsure where the trails are in your area, visit your local bike shop. They will be able to help you find the perfect trail for your family’s goals and the abilities of your smallest riders. * Play ball. America’s favorite pastime - baseball - and warmweather months simply go hand in hand. So why not catch the spirit and turn your family into a collection of future all-stars by hosting a Page 16
neighborhood baseball game? If you have room in your backyard, play there. If not, secure one of the fields at your local park. You can rest assured that when your kids slide into third base, you’ll be able to restore their jerseys to their original fresh smell. * Bask in the great outdoors. If you’re looking for an outdoor activity that allows your family to really get away from it all, you can’t beat camping. If you’re ready to embrace nature and sleep under the stars,
The San Clemente News
visit your state’s Department of Natural Resources website for open campgrounds. Your family can enjoy the great outdoors. * Host a cookout. For some people, summer barbecues are as much a part of the summer as trips to the beach or the Fourth of July. If you’re one of these people, make hosting a barbecue a family event. Invite your friends and neighbors to your barbecue and give each family member a special task to make the
barbecue successful. This way they will feel more part of the event. And while you’re planning the menu. The warmer months are perhaps the most enjoyable time of the year, and with the right activities and cleanup gear, you can make the most of the time with your family, without having to worry about the mess. So get together and decide what you want to do. As long as you’re doing it outdoors and together, you’re in for a great time.

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 714-730-2727 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-13-607568HL . 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. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagee’s Attorney. If you have previously been discharged through bankruptcy, you may have been released of personal liability for this loan in which case this letter is intended to exercise the note holders right’s against the real property only. As required by law, you are hereby notified that a negative credit report reflecting on your credit record may be submitted to a credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the terms of your credit obligations. QUALITY MAY BE CONSIDERED A DEBT COLLECTOR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.
