Police’s friendly faces Community liaison officers maintain contact with residents, organizations

CommUnify to suspend Senior Nutrition Program

NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Two Santa Barbara Police officers are on a mission to change the community’s perspective on policing. As part of the department’s broader philosophy of “community policing” — when police and communities work together to address crime and disorder — two new officer positions were created, specifically to focus on fostering relationships between the department and community organizations. Officers Heather Clark and Adrian Gutierrez hold the community liaison positions, and they’re focusing on crime and disorder issues that impact local youth. “It is clear, after meeting with a number of organizations in the city, that (this position) was much needed,” Officer Clark told the News-Press. Officer Gutierrez told the NewsPress that it’s difficult to pinpoint what he and his fellow community liaison officer do on a day-today basis, because every day is different. Officers Gutierrez and Clark might hang out on Santa Barbara’s Eastside to address any disturbances. Or they might go near Franklin Elementary School and do perimeter checks at the parks to ensure adult residents aren’t bothering students. The officers both attend the weekly Mobile Food Pantry at the Franklin Neighborhood Center to make themselves available for questions and concerns community members may have, with conversations in both English and Spanish. While helping at the Foodbank of Santa Barbara County program, they’re approached often with citizens’ questions about traffic laws, parking issues or how to file a police report. “Every section of the city has its different issues, or just people to meet, so it’s hard to say day-today how it’s going to be. But for the most part, it’s community contact and resident contact as much as we can,” Officer Gutierrez said. In addition, the liaisons have Please see COPS on A4

CommUnify will relinquish its Senior Nutrition Program for local residents in July due to a lack of funding. The Senior Nutrition Program began 47 years ago and serves about 720 seniors between Carpinteria and Guadalupe every day. During April alone, the program provided 17,000 meals. The program has suffered from significant funding gaps in the past decade, receiving only about 40% to 45% of the funding needed to provide their services. For years, the organization absorbed the outstanding costs by tapping into their reserve, but this is no longer sustainable, CommUnify CEO Patricia Keelean told the News-Press. This financial strain is forcing the local nonprofit to hand over the nutrition program to the Area Agency on Aging, which is now responsible for finding a replacement provider to keep the program alive. CommUnify will officially suspend the program July 1. “After 47 years, it’s a very difficult, very painful decision,” Ms. Keelean said. She later added, “We would never let go of this program if we didn’t have these funding challenges.” Despite the impending program suspension, Ms. Keelean is hopeful that if local officials and community members provide funding, the program could remain under CommUnify’s purview. In order for this to happen, Ms. Keelean said between $600,000 and $700,000 in permanent funding is needed.

The Foodbank of Santa Barbara County is unable to hold its annual Stamp Out Hunger food drive due to the pandemic, so it’s asking for the community’s help to fill a gap of about 80,000 pounds of donated food. To address the need, the Foodbank is holding its bi-annual Fill the Foodbank! drive on Saturday. But this year, it is a drivethrough food and cookware drive. “One of my colleagues brought it to my attention that we have quite a few clients who don’t even have the most basic cooking utensils or cooking tools to actually prepare the food we’re providing them. So we thought that this was a great opportunity to tie it in with Fill the Foodbank! and help make sure that, not only are we providing our clients with the food to nourish them, but also the tools to nourish them,” Jordan Jenkins, the food drive’s team leader, told the News-Press. The cookware drive aims to

help those community members who have recently become homeless or are in temporary or transitional housing, potentially as a result of the pandemic. Acceptable cookware items must be clean, new or gently used, and include rice cookers, toaster ovens, pressure cookers, crock pots, electric kettles, can openers, hot plates and more. Microwaves will not be accepted. In addition, the Foodbank is experiencing an extreme shortage of non-perishable food items, in particular nut butters, whole grain cereals and pasta, canned tomatoes and sauce, canned protein and tuna. But the Foodbank is accepting all kinds of non-perishable food items. Ms. Jenkins added that the Foodbank began serving elderly populations during the pandemic, and many of them requested Ensure nutritional shakes. The goal of the Fill the Foodbank! drive is to receive 20,000 pounds of donated food. “It’s no news to anybody that Please see FOOD BANK on A4

Foodbank to hold foodand cookware drive

Community Liaison Officer Heather Clark helps at a Foodbank of Santa Barbara County pantry as part of her duties to maintain relationships between the Santa Barbara Police Department and the community.

However, this would still leave the organization forced to fundraise between $400,000 and $500,000 annually just to break even. While community donations would help, Ms. Keelean said she believes a solution would require the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors to allocate funds on a permanent basis to sustain the program. Currently, most of the program’s funding comes from federal Older Americans Act dollars allocated by the Area Agency on Aging. For many of the seniors enrolled in the program, the suspension is bringing a lot of anxiety, Ms. Keelean said. Prior to the pandemic,

TRAFFIC, CRIME & FIRE BLOTTER Structure fire prompts evacuations

SANTA BARBARA — A two-story residence caught fire Thursday night in the 600 block of West Ortega Street in Santa Barbara and quickly spread to the area of TV hill and prompted several evacuations to be ordered, authorities said. The Loma Incident was reported just before 9 p.m. Thursday. Massive flames were seen in the area and a “fair amount of smoke” was billowing in the air, according to scanner traffic. The fire was initially reported as one acre burning in heavy fuel, spreading up the hillside of Loma Alta and being pushed by strong winds. Several county fire engines were dispatched to the area as evacuations were conducted to nearby residences. The fire was reportedly burning on both sides of Loma Alta around 9:15 p.m. Thursday, according to emergency dispatch radio. One resident was reportedly trapped and unable to escape. Around 9:20 p.m., another structure was partially involved in fire with others directly affected. Harbor Patrol personnel reported that the fire was “enormous” and assisted in shutting down traffic at the intersection of Shoreline and Loma Alta drives as crews responded to the blaze. Just before 9:30 p.m., units requested Edison respond and shut down the power in the area of Miramonte Drive. Crews remained engaged in structure protection and were attempting to control the fire as of press time Thursday. — Mitchell White

Bridge widening, rail replacement underway BUELLTON — Construction is underway to widen the bridge and replace railing on Highway 101 near Buellton at Nojoqui Creek just south of Santa Rosa Road. The $5.9 million project is completely funded by Senate Bill 1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017. The project will extend the lifespan of the structure and upgrade and modernize the bridge rail improving safety, according to Caltrans officials. “US 101 is an essential corridor on the central coast that serves commuters, tourists and commercial transportation,” Caltrans Director Toks Omishakin said in a statement. “This SB 1-funded project is a vital investment in fixing our bridges and supporting the efficient movement of goods and people throughout the region.” Motorists will encounter southbound lane closures from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 9:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Fridays. Northbound lane closures are set for 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday to Thursday and 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Fridays. Traffic delays are not expected to exceed 15 minutes. In addition, one lane will be closed in each direction across the Nojoqui Creek bridge

Environmental crimes found at illegal pot grow SANTA MARIA — Nearly 8,000 marijuana plants were eradicated and more than 300 pounds of illegally processed cannabis flower were destroyed following the service of a search warrant last month in Santa Maria, authorities said. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife, with assistance from deputies with the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department, served a search warrant related to environmental crimes associated with illegal cannabis cultivation on April 30 at the parcel in the 1400 block of Tepusquet Road in Santa Maria. The parcel is considered an environmentally sensitive area and home to native plants, fish and wildlife species. As a result, commercial cannabis cultivation is prohibited in the area by the county board of supervisors. Officers eradicated 7,943 plants and destroyed over 300 pounds of illegally processed cannabis flower. CDFW environmental scientists documented several environmental violations, which included substantially altering

a streambed, placing materials deleterious to fish and wildlife where it may pass into the stream, and stockpiling rubbish in and around a nearby tributary. A formal complaint will be filed with the Santa Barbara County District Attorney’s office. “We appreciate the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s partnership in the eradication of this illegal grow,” Santa Barbara County Sheriff Bill Brown said in a statement. “In addition to the unfair competition that these illicit growing and distribution operations have on legitimate, legal cannabis operations, this case also shows how detrimental they are to our sensitive environment.” Along with CDFW wildlife officers and environmental scientists, support for the investigation also came from the State Water Resources Control Board, California Highway Patrol, California Department of Food and Agriculture and Santa Barbara County Code Enforcement. “This egregious activity will not be tolerated at the expense of the environment and those in the regulated cannabis market,” David Bess, CDFW Deputy Director and Chief of the Law Enforcement Division, said in a statement. “Illegal operations of this nature fuel other associated criminal behavior and put public safety at risk. I applaud this allied agency effort with our enforcement partners in Santa Barbara County.”

County reports seven new cases of COVID-19 the next month. Earlier this week, the department unveiled a new pop-up clinic at the Santa Maria Fairpark, where Public Health officials will offer the COVID-19 vaccine appointment-free from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sundays through Wednesdays and from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Thursdays. This pop up clinic will remain operating through July. As of Thursday, 61% of the county’s eligible population of people ages 12 and older have

received at least one shot of the vaccine. Of that eligible population, about 49.1% are fully vaccinated. This equates to about 41.6% of the county’s entire population who are fully vaccinated. Though case rates remain low, 17 people are currently in the hospital recovering from COVID-19, two which are in the ICU.

GRAYS HARBOR, Wash. — Today marks one week since the U.S. Coast Guard suspended a search for a 47-year-old man who apparently fell overboard while halibut fishing more than 20 miles off the coast of Grays Harbor. The man who went missing, Jason LaBrie, was once a resident of Santa Barbara but most recently lived in Oregon City, Ore., according to local reports.

He attended Santa Barbara High School, and members of his extended family still reside in the area. The Coast Guard was alerted that Mr. LaBrie was missing at sea around 12:40 p.m. last Friday, when other fishermen aboard his ship realized he was no longer on board. The Coast Guard arrived at the scene and completed 18 searches of a 244-square mile area over the course of 22 hours before suspending its search for Mr.

LaBrie last Friday. “The decision to suspend a search is one of the most difficult decisions we have to make,” Capt. Nathan Coulter, chief of incident management for the 13th Coast Guard District, said in a statement. “We offer our deepest sympathies to the family of Jason LaBrie in this difficult time.” Since Mr. LaBrie’s tragic disappearance, friends of the family started a GoFundMe page to raise money for Mr. LaBrie’s wife, Bethany, and children Alden and

Sophia. As of Thursday evening, community members raised over $54,000 for the family and counting. “Losing a spouse is a devastation; a sudden unexpected loss is even more horrific,” Gail Shelton, the fundraiser organizer, wrote on the page. The GoFundMe currently has a goal to raise $60,000 to support the LaBrie family. To access the fundraiser, visit gofundme.com/f/ jason-labrie-lost-at-sea. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

Rapture of the deep leads Royals to swimming championships

By MARK PATTON

NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

The water runs deep for San Marcos High School, even in the pool of a cross-town rival. Meet host Dos Pueblos High won 13 of 22 races during Thursday’s Channel League Swimming Championships but the Royals still reigned supreme in the team standings for both the boys and girls competitions. “We got a lot of seconds, thirds and fourths,” San Marcos girls coach Chuckie Roth said. “It pays off in a team event. “We do have a lot of numbers, that’s for sure. It’s fun to have such a big group that’s really into it.” The Royals, led by two-event winner Holly Woodhouse, outscored the Chargers 599-454 in the girls meet at the Elings Aquatics Center. Santa Barbara finished third with 348, followed by Santa Ynez (163), Cabrillo (157.5) and Lompoc (131.5). Jaran Depew was San Marcos’ lone individual winner in the boys meet, capturing the 500-yard freestyle in a time of 4:57.29. But the Royals beat DP for the team title by an even larger margin, 647-380. “We don’t make any cuts,” Roth pointed out. “We take kids. And if you want to do the work, you’re going to be there. “We have a huge team because of that and kids want to be part of it. They want to challenge themselves.” Woodhouse won both the 200 individual medley (2:09.82) and 100 backstroke (58:52). She was also part

of the winning 200 free relay team. DP denied her a fourth win in the 400 free relay. “Holly was big today,” Roth said. “She was in the last relay we lost — hats off to DP, they swam a great race.” San Marcos also got plenty of points in the diving competition which Malia Yim won earlier in the week. She also competed on Thursday, taking 17th at the CIF Finals. “That’s a first-year diver going to the Division 1 finals,” Roth said. “That’s amazing. It’s just a great team effort today, really.” Senior Zosia Amberger was the only other individual winner for the Royal girls, capturing the 100 breast (1:08.37). She also swam on the winning 200 free relay team. The Charger girls had a two-time individual winner in senior Caitlyn Robinson. She captured both the 50 freestyle (25.23) and the 100 butterfly (1:00.33). She also led DP to relay wins in both the 200 medley and 400 free. DP’s other individual winners were sophomore Brynn Graham in the 100 free (54:05), senior Andrea Bish in the 200 free (1:57.36), and freshman Natalie Murray in the 500 free (5:12.21). Graham was also part of the winning 200 medley and 400 free relay teams, while Bish helped the Chargers win the 400 free relay. DP’s boys were led by sophomore Nikkolai Carrillo’s wins in both the 200 IM (1:58.05) and the 100 back (51.93). He also swam on the winning 200 free and 400 free relay teams.

San Marcos High’s Jaran Depew pulls ahead to win the boys 500yard freestyle during Thursday’s Channel League Swimming Championships.

The Chargers also got wins from sophomore Cooper Costello in the 100 fly (50.99) and senior Alexander Kanard in the 100 free (48:69). Costello and Kanard were part of DP’s two winning relays. The Santa Ynez boys made waves behind junior Addison Hawkins. He won both the 50 free (22.78) and 100 breast (1:01.81) while also leading the Pirates to victory in the 200 medley relay. Senior Maximillian Pecile, winner of the 200 free (1:44.6), joined Hawkins in their medley relay victory. But by day’s end, the Royals were in cruise control.

“Our depth helps,” Roth said as he watched one of his girls swim laps well after the last race, “but here I’ve got a water polo kid in the water … She’s the last kid in the water, warming down and doing everything right. “I can’t say enough times that my kids really invest in the process and invest in the team culture, and it motivates other kids to be better. Whether we win or not, that’s not really it. It’s about becoming better people and doing things the right way. So I think we did good on that today, and during the season.” email: mpatton@newspress.com

Meister masters Quartz Hill in Dons’ playoff win By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

Sam Meister’s 18 kills powered top-seeded Santa Barbara High to a 25-15, 25-14, 25-20 sweep at Quartz Hill in the second round of the CIFSouthern Section Division 2 boys volleyball playoffs. Senior libero Matt Suh “set the tone with his tough serving and consistent passing throughout the match,” coach Chad Arneson said. Suh had four aces, 12 digs and four assists. Andreas Schuetz had seven hills from his opposite position while Andrew Douglas added five kills from the middle. “Peter Tebbe continues to improve as our starting setter,” Arneson said. The Dons (10-0) will travel again to West Ranch for Wednesday’s quarterfinals. TESORO 3, SAN MARCOS 1 The Royals’ long trip to the southern edge of Orange County led to a 25-23, 25-22, 20-25, 25-18 loss in the second round of the Division 3 boys volleyball playoffs. “We played a great match against a very good team,” coach Roger Kuntz said. “All of our starters contributed to a great effort and we fought hard all the way.” Senior starters playing their last match for the 8-3 Royals were Josh Willbanks, Jake Ewart, Cade McLean, Jacob Yinger and Ben New-

Carbajal assembles packages for deployed military WASHINGTON, D.C. — Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-Santa Barbara, joined a bipartisan coalition of veterans serving in Congress Wednesday to assemble 5,000 care packages that will be shipped to military service members overseas. The care packages, assembled at the Washington D.C. National Guard Armory, will be delivered to service members serving aboard the USS Iwo Jima, USS San Antonio, USS Carter Hall, USS Laboon, USS Dwight D Eisenhower and USS Sullivan. The event, Operation Gratitude, was meant to show appreciation to soldiers, airmen, marines, sailors and coast guardsmen for their service overseas during Military Appreciation Month. “My time serving in the United States Marine Corps was one of the greatest honors of my life and taught me a great deal about service and sacrifice,” Rep.

Carbajal said in a statement. “The men and women serving abroad, away from their family and community, have sacrificed so much for our country and the least we can do is show them how grateful we are for their service. Glad to join fellow veterans in Congress, both Democrats and Republicans, in assembling care packages to give back to those who have given so much to protect us.” During the event, Rep. Carbajal raised awareness about the construction of a monument at the National Mall that will honor the sacrifice and service of veterans who served in the Global War on Terror. One act, H.R. 1115, the Global War on Terrorism Memorial Location Act, has already received signatures from 135 cosponors on both ends of the political spectrum. — Madison Hirneisen

John Gragg “Chipper” Orton passed away surrounded by his family on May 14, 2021 at the age of 76. He was born on January 24, 1945 in Santa Barbara. He attended Santa Ynez Valley Union High School and later California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo, CA where he majored in animal sciences. After college, he was drafted into the United States Army and served in the Vietnam War as a Green Beret in the 82nd Airborne Division. Following in his father’s footsteps, he was a dedicated member of The Rancheros Visitadores for over 50 years and it helped fuel his love of horses, roping, and westerns. He was a loving husband to wife, Carol Orton, née Nielsen, and together they raised their four children on a 3,500-acre cattle ranch called the Bar-Go. Later, they sold the Bar-Go and purchased a smaller property on Ballard Canyon Rd. Chipper was a hands-on parent and grandparent and could often be seen barbecuing at various school fundraisers and was even the president of the SYVUHS school board for many years. With his children and grandchildren, he shared his love of movies, photography, traveling, cooking, and reading. He was as extroverted as they come, and it became a running joke within his family that they couldn’t go anywhere with him without seeing at least one person he knew. He played a significant role in the lives of everyone who knew him, and he will be missed terribly. He is survived by his wife Carol, children Joelle Orton-Cartnal (Ryan), Matthew Orton (Lourdes), Elizabeth Casberg (Trent), and Sasha Darnell (Brian), his five grandchildren Chloë and Lane Orton Cartnal, Caroline Casberg, and Finn and Sebastian Darnell, brotherin-law Gordon Nielsen (Susan), and half siblings Bill Kennedy (Arlene), Alice Kennedy, and many nieces and nephews. The family would like to give special thanks to Dr. Gus Dascanio, Lidia Martinez, and Visiting Nurses for taking such good care of Chipper. In lieu of flowers, it is requested that donations be sent to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society or the Make-A-Wish Foundation in honor of his oldest granddaughter, Chloë.

Officer Clark said longer-term cases such as scams or other issues ”where there’s not really a suspect” can be taken on by herself and Officer Gutierrez. Their positions are designed to address problems that require more community education than enforcement. School visits are their main focus right now, along with collaborating with the Police Activities League and the South Coast Youth Safety Partnership. “Especially for students, it helps to desensitize them to seeing our uniforms,” Officer Clark said. “When we show up somewhere, someone sees the car and thinks,

NUTRITION

CommUnify served low-income seniors at 13 dining hall sites across the region, and the nonprofit even delivered meals to homebound seniors on a daily basis. But during the COVID-19 crisis, the organization switched to a delivery-only model, where all seniors receive one hot meal a day at their front door. Over the years, thousands of seniors have benefited from the nutrition program being a reliable source of food,

‘Oh my gosh, what happened?’ and sometimes, nothing happened. We just came to say, ‘Hi.’ “It’s nice to see people’s faces light up when we say that, because it totally changes their perspective. Nobody’s writing a parking ticket or yelling or arguing or fighting. I think it provides a different view for law enforcement, especially for young children.” The police department is planning a community academy, in both English and Spanish, to educate residents about the department’s office hours, services and what officers can assist with, Officer Gutierrez said. He explained the academy will allow the community — and particularly Spanish-speaking residents — to learn more about operations and ask questions. Officer Clark said the main goal is to provide a friendly face in the field for community members to particularly for those who are in tough financial situations. Currently, Ms. Keelean said the Area Agency on Aging has assured that hot meals will be ready to go July 1, but she is not aware of any local organization that has been selected as the new provider. The pandemic further exacerbated an already difficult situation for many seniors, the majority of whom never had to ask for help at any other time in their lives, Ms. Keelean said. According to studies completed by CommUnify, between 47% to 58% of seniors enrolled in the

She said that all depends on the budget for staffing. However, the officers have gotten “a lot of positive feedback” from the public, who Officer Clark thinks is “excited to see the department willing to embrace the idea of community policing with putting officers in the community that aren’t just relying on enforcement and patrol service.” program would have to make a choice between paying bills or putting food on the table without the Nutrition Program. “What we’ve seen during the pandemic is a huge increase in the need among seniors,” Ms. Keelean said. “Many of the seniors that have come to us in the past year were seniors that have never had to ask for help before. And what we’re seeing is that as the senior population grows and as finances become tighter, more and more seniors are having to make the difficult decision between purchasing groceries or buying

The officers have a presence on Arroyo Burro Beach Park (“Hendry’s Beach”) to provide a visible deterrent to crime in the area. They also walk through parks and up and down the State Street promenade to assist tourists and store owners with their problems. “Part of our role is to take what we’ve learned in the community from the groups we’ve worked with and bring that back to patrol, to encourage officers and give them the opportunity to go out in the community and see what’s going on, and meet the business owners and residents out there,” Officer Clark said. “Those are the people that are going to spend 10 to 12 hours a day in that area … “(We hope) to change the perspective of law enforcement as public guardians and less as law enforcers.” email: gmccormick@newspress.com their medications or seeking healthcare.” She added that most of the seniors who are being served through the program lived and worked in Santa Barbara for decades, contributing to the vibrant community that exists today. For this reason, Ms. Keelean said it’s important this program remains functioning for the hundreds of low-income residents it benefits. “We owe it to those who helped build this community to meet those basic needs at their age.” email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

Finishing what he started Local Peace Corps volunteer deployed to assist with vaccine education By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

hen Noah Congdon was evacuated from North Macedonia in March 2020, the UCSB graduate could have chosen a path other than volunteering. After all, he and his 7,000 fellow Peace Corps volunteers were only able to serve three months of their originally planned two-year assignment. However, Mr. Congdon didn’t let the pandemic stop him from volunteering. In fact, he is currently in training to serve again as a Peace Corps Response volunteer, joining the agency’s special domestic deployment to a FEMA-supported Community Vaccination Center in Illinois. “For the first time in Peace Corps history, we all felt like the rug was pulled out from under us,” the 2019 UCSB grad told the NewsPress of the agency’s evacuation. He said that the pandemic’s impacts resulted in many changes of plans, and he and the other volunteers remained in limbo for several months. “But it’s been over a year and two months now, and we’re all talking about going back,” he said. Mr. Congdon graduated with a bachelor’s degree in economics, with his sights set on economic development, potentially on a global level. He said his major is “a very vague sector,” where he felt freedom to go any direction. In North Macedonia — a country in the Balkans in southeastern Europe — Mr. Congdon’s direction was helping a specialty nonprofit in Skopje, North Macedonia called KRIK. The nonprofit assists special needs students, particularly students with physical needs, such as being blind or deaf, or intellectual disabilities. “When I was in service abroad, I felt like our job was selfdiplomacy, being a friend to locals and being kind of a partnership on a small scale level,” the Peace Corps volunteer said. He added that he enjoyed the idea of “helping on behalf of the U.S. in another country,” and that’s something he wants to do later on in life, perhaps in foreign service. Now, he will be headed to Peoria, Ill., to work with a small team in community outreach for vaccine information around the county. Mr. Congdon told the NewsPress he’s not sure exactly what it will look like yet, but it could involve working with community

organizations to vaccinate the homeless and undocumented populations. “Helping out with the COVID vaccine is an easy way to give back to the community, and it’s a very time-sensitive issue to get people vaccines actually as fast as possible,” he said, adding in a press release, “Now is the time to mobilize and provide access to and information about the coronavirus vaccine to those who have yet to be reached.” Mr. Congdon and his volunteer group began training this week. In addition, this marks the second time in the agency’s history that Peace Corps Response volunteers will serve a domestic deployment at FEMA’s request. The only other time was after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The deployment lasts three months, and it reflects the mission of the Biden administration to combat the pandemic with a whole-of-government effort and mobilize all resources, with emphasis on assisting communities with the greatest need and those who are traditionally underserved. Mr. Congdon said he could see global vaccination efforts ramping up as the U.S. achieves its own milestones in vaccine rollout. “We’re trying to help get the global population vaccinated as fast as possible and evenly distribute it to stop the spread of the virus, and make sure the variants keep evolving and passing through them — keeping the spread down by keeping herd immunity up and saving lives,” he said. “On top of that, it would be a good global ‘coming together’ moment. After all, ending the global divisiveness by sharing vaccines seems like it would be a good way to combat all the global tensions that are happening right now too.” The Peace Corps began recruiting volunteers for this special domestic deployment after it was announced by the agency and FEMA on March 31. Peace Corps volunteers and Peace Corps Response volunteers who were given “completion of service” status in 2020 as part of the global evacuation due to COVID-19 are eligible to serve, including Mr. Congdon. Volunteers will be assigned to language support, administrative, logistical and other work that supports the operation of FEMA-funded Community Vaccination Centers, but will not be administering the vaccine, nor will they engage in any other clinical work during their

assignment. “The Peace Corps works handin-hand with communities on their most pressing challenges, and right now the U.S. faces some of the biggest challenges in our country’s history,” Carol Spahn, Peace Corps acting director,

said in a press release. “The volunteers who contribute to this effort will bring valuable crosscultural experience, language skills and adaptability fostered during their time overseas as they contribute to an equitable vaccination campaign here at

home.” While Mr. Congdon is on assignment now, he said he doesn’t quite think his time in North Macedonia is done. “I already vested so much time into being a volunteer, but I didn’t really feel that ‘closure’

moment. I liked what I was doing there, and I did feel like it was cut a little short. I still want to go back,” he said. “But right now, this is a way to get back to help fight against this virus.” email: gmccormick@newspress.com

Santa Maria student to lead California FFA By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Senior Marc Cabeliza has made history as the first Pioneer Valley High School FFA member to be elected president of the California FFA Association. The state is home to more than 300 high school Agriculture Education Programs. Marc was selected through an extensive interview process that began in March and culminated in Sacramento this past weekend. The student at the Santa Maria school was featured on an online platform where all delegates watched him answer two questions related to agriculture and leadership. At the conclusion of his responses, delegates voted, and results were announced to more than 15,000 members and guests. “It was a nerve-racking experience to go through, but I relied on what I was taught

accomplishment. My family, Ag teachers, coaches, PV teachers and mentors.

He will be residing at the California FFA Center in Galt in Sacramento County with his newly elected officer team. Marc and his team will plan their upcoming year of service spreading and promoting the word of agriculture, developing and implementing curriculum through high school chapter visits, coordinating regional and state conferences and finally, being the ambassador of agriculture and FFA. email: mmcmahon@newspress. com

Diversions horoscope • puzzles

ARIES — You’re a helpful person, Aries, yet in your relationships, you often seem to confuse helping with parenting. You tend to do a lot of selfsacrificing. Today you may learn how to say no when you feel your partner has gone beyond the limits of what you can give. If you do this, you may rediscover something essential you may have lost along the way - your ego. TAURUS — Everyone needs to be loved, Taurus, but it shouldn’t be your only objective in life. It isn’t the end of the world if your charms fall flat every once in a while. Today you may be tempted to be a little less charming and seductive with the people around you. Some may even say you aren’t acting like your usual self. Ignore them. A little self-indulgence now and then never hurt anyone. GEMINI — There are days when a little humility can be good for you, Gemini, and this might be one of those days. It’s as if the planets are talking to you about sincerity and taking you far away from the trappings of superficiality and popularity. The things that are important to you today are much deeper concepts of humanity and compassion. CANCER — Your fiery willpower can help you move mountains, Cancer. But you already know that. When it’s combined with your legendary optimism, it’s a powerful tool you just can’t do without. Today you will reap the rewards for your hard work over the last month, in every aspect of your life. The fire that burns inside you and gives you your incredible determination has its limits. Don’t misuse it. LEO — Today could discourage even the most ardent of passions, Leo. Even if some people say you’re a bit cold, know that there’s a veritable volcano burning underneath all that ice. Today you may once again find yourself at a distance from your feelings, as if you were regaining control over your emotions. Be careful about being too cynical about things. VIRGO — Virgo, you should try to be tolerant of other people’s social and political positions. You may have to deal with certain people whose personal plans are jeopardized by events beyond their control. Don’t judge them. Don’t immediately defend one Monday, 16, 2015 viewpointNovember without thinking how

the situation affects the other person’s life. LIBRA — This is a day for doubts, for asking those hard questions that you need to answer. If you like to meditate, Libra, think about spending a little more time at it today. You could learn a lot about yourself. You will see the whole palette of human emotion in other people, from joy to disappointment. Where do you fit in? SCORPIO — It may seem that you’ve been accumulating a lot of excess nervous tension and stress, Scorpio. Unfortunately, you won’t be able to count on the people around you to make it any better. What your partner wants and what you want may not coincide. It could be time to think about reenergizing your relationship. How about planning a weekend away for just the two of you? SAGITTARIUS — You may feel physical and emotional tension today, Sagittarius. Are you taking the time to care for your body? Has someone been putting a lot of pressure on you lately? Are you an emotionally satisfied person? The way you feel physically is a good indicator of your mental state. Try to go a little easier on yourself and you will see immediate benefits. CAPRICORN — People love to be with you because you have such natural charm, Capricorn. But today you may not feel especially charming or like talking to anyone. You may have a secret inside that’s screaming to get out. If someone confides in you today, do you think you could confide in him or her, too? You should get an answer to that question today. AQUARIUS — Your partner may be all over you today, Aquarius! Are you in the mood to listen? Are you interested in some love? Probably not. You may have had a hard day and just feel like some quiet time together. You aren’t up to the demands your partner may make on you. You don’t need to worry about it. It happens to everyone from time to time. PISCES — You’re often moved by emotion, Pisces. You like situations that make you feel alive. Today your love life may give you just that kind of adventurous feeling. If that’s the case, don’t get so far into your emotions that it becomes too much for you. There is such a concept as too much of a good thing!

H G Z W D R V

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.
