SBCC mandates vaccines for fall semester By MADISON HIRNEISEN NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Santa Barbara City College Board of Trustees voted to instate a vaccine mandate for the upcoming fall semester during a special meeting Thursday. In a 6-1 vote, the trustees reversed a prior decision to not require a vaccine mandate and are now requiring that all students, with limited exceptions, be fully vaccinated on or before Oct. 1 or when one of the vaccines receives full Food and Drug Administration approval, whichever comes first.

A few exceptions to the vaccine mandate apply to students who have an approved exemption based on medical, disability or religious grounds. Pregnant students are also eligible for a deferral. The decision came after weeks of mounting tensions surrounding the Board of Trustees, as many faculty members, students and staff spoke out against the board’s decision to not require a mandate. The board fielded input from more than 30 public commenters during Thursday’s meeting, who spoke both for and against a vaccine mandate. In the end, the board’s decision rested

on what was best for the safety of students and faculty, Trustee Peter Haslund said Thursday. “We need to do whatever is possible to create a safe environment on our campus, for students,” Mr. Haslund said. “Without a safe environment, we can’t do what we do best, which is to teach.” The resolution for a vaccine mandate was introduced by Trustee Jonathan Abboud, who urged the board to align with recommendations from Acting California Community College Chancellor Daisy Gonzales and the California Community College Board of Governors

President Pamela Haynes, who are asking that all community colleges in the state to adopt a mandate given the spread of the highly transmissible delta variant. “SBCC is a community college, and our students, employees and community are our priorities,” Mr. Abboud said Thursday. “Our students and employees are a major part of the community. Our actions have a wide impact.” “Enough is enough,” he later added. “We want this pandemic to end, and it’s only possible through herd immunity quickly achieved through mass vaccinations. Waiting for people to come

along is not going to get this finished, and this resolution is the most effective way to keep our students, our employees and the entire SBCC community safe and healthy. It is our most important contribution to reaching herd immunity and ending the COVID-19 pandemic.” Trustee Veronica Gallardo was the only board member opposed to the resolution, telling the board that adopting a vaccine mandate would limit opportunities for students who are looking to SBCC for an education. “Our job is to open doors, not close Please see SBCC on A4

Solvang Danish Days canceled

Solvang Danish Days has been canceled for the second year in a row.

By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Solvang Danish Days Foundation, planners and organizers of the traditional annual Solvang Danish Days festivities, have officially announced the cancellation of the 2021 event weekend. Previously scheduled for a two-day, in-person line-up, Sept. 17 and 18, Solvang Danish Days 2021 would have celebrated the festival’s 85th anniversary. “The decision to cancel this year’s Danish Days for the second, unprecedented year in a row breaks our hearts. The festival weekend is a tradition for so many members of our community, and we look forward to welcoming visitors to our city for this annual cultural event,” said Max Hanberg, co-chair. “However, with Danish Days scheduled for just over a month from now, and with so many unknowns due to the impending COVID surges, we felt that the safest thing to do for our residents and for our tourists was to cancel the event.” A major impetus for the event’s cancellation was the new facemask mandates set forth by the State of California and by Santa Barbara

County. “Solvang Danish Days annually draws thousands of attendees, a potential crowding situation which we wanted to avoid this year due to the spread of the virus’s Delta variant,” added Brenda Anderson, co-chair. Solvang Danish Days, which traditionally honors the 1911 establishment of Solvang by Danish-Americans, was also canceled in 2020 due to the enduring COVID pandemic. “Danish Days is a townwide celebration, and while we cannot hold this year’s festival as planned, our town’s still here. We do welcome visitors who are traveling safely, and our businesses look forward to giving everyone a taste of our ‘little Denmark’,” said Ms. Anderson. More information about Solvang Danish Days, including a brief history of the event and complete contact information, is available at www.SolvangDanishDays. org. Solvang Danish Days is on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram, at facebook.com/ SolvangDanishDays, twitter.com/ DanishDays, and @DanishDays. Future event dates will be announced in the first half of 2022. email: mmcmahon@newspress.com

The Fiesta Stock Horse Show and Rodeo made its return to the Earl Warren Showgrounds on Friday, roping in a group of community members from across the county

anxious to be back at a rodeo once again. The atmosphere was lively inside the showgrounds’ Dome Arena on Friday, as attendees — most of whom donned cowboy hats — cheered for friends and fellow riders participating in the events. The show ran from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Friday and will continue

Cosentino, a local artist with a flare for decorative art and abstract pieces. The gallery showcased the artist’s newest piece, “Tossed Salad of Love,” during the 1st Thursday event. As people wandered in and out of the gallery on Thursday, Ms. Glasheen told the NewsPress that art really has a healing ability during this time because of its ability to “take you away to another world.” After a long pandemic year, Ms. Glasheen said she believes people are ready to be back out enjoying the arts once again. “We’ve had so many people come in, and I think people are excited to be out and exploring again,” Ms. Glasheen said. “And I think one of the things that people have really missed are the arts. You know — art, music, live music, and actually coming and seeing things in person. I think it’s been something that everybody’s missed.” Downtown visitors wandering around Thursday evening may have noticed a massive, white, blow-up elephant plopped outside Jardins de las Granadas on Anapamu Street. The display, called “The Light Elephant,” was created by two local artists, Iman Djouinia and Jonathan Taube, and stands as a large-scale social experiment. Passersby who walked past the structure were asked to address the “elephant in the room” and answer what thoughts and feelings the elephant evokes. Locals were asked to answer questions like “what’s the story here?” and “what’s happening here?” and offer their own interpretations. The artists teamed up with local type artist Simon Kiefer for the event, who provided the typewriters for locals to answer the questions.The answers that were collected on Thursday will be returned to the artists, Mr. Kiefer said. The next 1st Thursday event is scheduled to take place next month on Sept. 2. More information on upcoming events can be found at downtownsb.org/ events/1st-thursday.

that the pandemic felt like a “sucker punch,” especially after the gallery had relocated to a new space just two months before lockdown. “It was a tough time,” Ms. Schloss told the News-Press on Thursday. More recently, however, business has started to improve at the gallery. After the state’s June 15 reopening loosened many COVID-19 restrictions, Ms. Schloss said the gallery has seen more and more visitors returning over the last month and a half, many of which are itching to see beauty after a dark year. “People really wanted to come in here and see beauty, and I think that’s why we succeeded,” Ms. Schloss said. “We’re still succeeding, and people are still wanting to see beauty with the pandemic and so many things going on in the world.” At Colette Cosentino Atelier and Gallery on Anapamu Street, locals were greeted by Emily Glasheen, the operations manager of the gallery, during Thursday’s event.

Multiple art galleries in downtown Santa Barbara extended their hours Thursday evening to participate in the first 1st Thursday Art Walk of the year, which made its return this week after a 17-month hiatus. About a dozen art galleries and local businesses participated in this month’s 1st Thursday event, showcasing local art and culture and offering free admission to view the galleries. Locals could be seen wandering in and out of galleries near the 1000 block of State Street, sipping champagne and enjoying the artistry. Just like so many other small business owners, art gallery managers and operators alike were hit hard by pandemicinduced lockdowns and widespread closures. Months of restrictions and shut downs had a number of gallery owners wondering how they would stay afloat and pay rent without customers or visitors.

With the help of his rescue cat Baba the Cat, his book is a fascinating odyssey through the highs and lows that cats have experienced since the days of ancient Egypt. 3,000 years ago mistreating or even making fun of cats in Egypt carried the penalty of death! We also hear some wonderful stories about cats show that can be as loyal and faithful to humans as dogs, but rarely get the credit. There are true stories such as when a cat had been on a ship with its crew to control

We also learn about a feral cat called Room 8 who walked into an elementary school in Echo Park one day and captured the hearts of the students. Room 8 stayed with the students for 15 years each year ﬁnding new students to bond with. When he passed students and alumni raised enough funds to buy a large memorial headstone for Room 8 who now rests at the Los Angeles Pet Memorial Park in Calabasas.

them, and to break down barriers, not add more,” Ms. Gallardo said Thursday. The decision from SBCC comes at a time when Santa Barbara County is facing a surge in case rates associated with the predominant delta variant. On Friday, the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department reported 110 new cases of COVID-19 and one new death. The individual who died resided in the North County unincorporated areas and was between the ages of 30 and 49. Officials reported 27 new cases in Santa Maria, 18 new cases in Santa Barbara and the unincorporated area of Mission Canyon, and 15 new cases in Lompoc, including the communities of Mission Hills and Vandenberg Village, and in Orcutt. Nine new infections were recorded in the Santa Ynez Valley, eight were recorded in Goleta, four infections were reported in Isla Vista and the North County unincorporated areas, three were recorded in the

South Coast unincorporated areas and the City of Carpinteria and two infections were reported in the unincorporated area of the Goleta Valley and Gaviota. Five infections were pending on Friday. With cases of the delta variant on the rise, the Public Health Department is continuing its efforts to vaccine those eligible for shots. Every Sunday through Wednesday, a walk-in clinic offering the Pfizer vaccine is open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. at the Santa Maria Fairpark. The clinic is also open every Thursday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. In addition, this Sunday the department will be operating a walk-up clinic at Our Lady of Guadalupe at 227 North Nopal Street in Santa Barbara. As of Thursday, 70.9% of the county’s eligible 12 and older population received at least one dose of the vaccine, and 62.4% of the same population was fully vaccinated. Of the entire county population, 52.8% of people were vaccinated as of Thursday. The county’s vaccination data lags by one day. email: mhirneisen@newspress.com

Large arena allowed for social distancing at event FIESTA

Continued from Page A1 cattle in the Alisal Ranch Horse Class, the Stock Horse Class and the Buckaroo Class. When she was not out in the arena performing, Cheryl and her husband, Roy, cheered on fellow equestrians and friends during the rodeo. After the pandemic canceled last year’s rodeo, Ms. Bodnuda said she’s happy to be back out riding with her friends again. For her, the show is not just about competing — it’s about camaraderie too. “I’m enjoying the heck out of (the show) and seeing everyone again,” Ms. Bodnuda said. “I think my favorite part is the friendships and everyone coming together,” she added. The Fiesta rodeo has been a long-standing tradition in the annual celebration, and is one of the few traditional events that took place this year after the Mercado De la Guerra and Las Noches de Ronda were sidelined due to surging COVID-19 case rates. During Friday’s show, many attendees sat spaced apart and in groups with friends and families. The large, open-air arena provided plenty of room

for social distancing, and many of the event’s attendees did so. A few of Friday’s attendees travelled across the county to witness the show, including JoAnn Cutshall and Manuel Castro, who reside in Solvang. Mr. Castro is a trainer at Flag is Up Farm in Solvang and trains Ms. Cutshall’s Mustang. Both attendees came out to support a friend who was participating in Friday’s show, and said they try to make it to horse shows whenever they can. As an equestrian herself, Ms. Cutshall said she has deep admiration for how well-trained the horses are, noting that many of the riders train their horses for many years to get them to the point of showing at the Fiesta rodeo. “Being around horses, (you) know how much it takes to get to this point,” Ms. Cutshall said. “I just really admire what they’ve accomplished with their sport.” The Stock Horse Show will continue this weekend, with events scattered throughout the day today and tomorrow.

GILMOUR, Betty Lou

Betty Lou Gilmour, affectionately called Betty Boops by loved ones, passed away quietly at home from natural causes on June 16, 2021 at the age of 91. She was surrounded by her caring family, including her beloved husband of nearly 70 years, Melvin Gilmour.

ANDERSON, Walter Burke, MD May 09, 1933 - June 17, 2021 Due to Covid, memorial services for Walter Burke Anderson, MD have been postponed until further notice.

Betty Lou Locke was born on March 2, 1930 in East McKeesport, Pennsylvania. Her parents were Burton and Marie Locke. The family made the move to southern California when Betty was a teenager, along with her younger sister, Nancy. The family settled in Torrance where Betty attended Torrance High. Betty and Mel met on a blind date in 1950 and began their courtship when Betty was a student at Knapp College of Nursing on Bath Street in Santa Barbara. They were married January 20, 1952 at the Unitarian Church in Santa Barbara and went on to have three children. As an inseparable couple they loved family adventures, especially camping in Yosemite and sailing. Betty travelled with her kids when they were racing sailboats with the Santa Barbara Sea Shells Sailing Club where she could always be found cheering them on from the shore. %HWW\ ZDV D &DPSÀUH *LUOV OHDGHU IRU VHYHUDO \HDUV 8VLQJ KHU HQYLDEOH RUJDQL]DWLRQDO skills, Betty planned and ran most of her daughter’s troop events and activities.

Betty’s nursing career spanned over 20 years as a pediatric Registered Nurse at Cottage Hospital and then over two decades as a company nurse at Delco Industries in Goleta, where she retired in 1990. After Betty and Mel retired, they traveled the world visiting many countries in Europe and South America. They travelled several times to the Caribbean as well. But Betty’s favorite getaway, especially with family, was in Napili Shores on the Island of Maui. Betty also found time to support the work of Stowe House and volunteered there every Christmas to help with their fundraising efforts.

Santa Barbara author Nicole Black is the writer of the newly published “I Can Still Hear You,” the story of a complex father-daughter relationship.

‘I Can Still Hear You’ Local novelist explores father-daughter bond

By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Unemployed, broke and on the verge of being evicted, Scarlett O’Connor has spent the final years of her twenties caring for her aging father and withholding from him the truth about her chosen path in life. Her life is in shambles. On his deathbed, he struggles to speak to Scarlett one last time — to share one more nugget of dad wisdom. He tells her it’s “the greatest secret to living a happy life.” When he dies, Scarlett doesn’t expect to hear any more of his advice. But she is wrong. He has one final adventure for Scarlett: a mysterious scavenger hunt, complete with a cryptic treasure map and instructions to travel to Maui. In the newly published book, “I Can Still Hear You,” (Whole Beauty Press, $9.95) Santa Barbara author Nicole Black shares the story of a complex father-daughter relationship and their powerful, unbreakable bond that was inspired by the death of her own father, Noel Black. “He died when he was 77 on July 5, 2014, of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis at Cottage Hospital. Afterward, I started to see signs or symbols like he was still with me. It was very comforting,” Ms. Black told the News-Press. “To me, one of the greatest gifts a parent can give a child is to instill a moral compass. You can’t make them do what you want - you can only show or guide them, which takes a great deal of patience.” The single mom of 16-year-old

Santa Barbara author Nicole Black shares the story of a complex father-daughter relationship and their powerful, unbreakable bond that was inspired by the death of her own father. Morgan said the original title for her first novel was “The Spiral Staircase.” “I loved the concept that as humans we keep repeating the same patterns in our lives until we get it right. The book is Scarlett’s journey of finding meaning in her life,” said Ms. Black, describing the book as “fiction but loosely based on her own experiences and own life.” For more than 20 years, she worked in the business world as a corporate trainer in employee productivity and effective growth and has been featured on platforms including TEDxWilmington, the Jack Canfield Show, the George DiGianni Show and the Tom Barnard Show. “I named the main character Scarlett because ‘The Scarlet Letter’ by Nathaniel Hawthorne’ is one of my favorite books,” said Ms. Black. In “I Can Still Hear You,” Scarlett’s childhood best friend, Mark Graham, is her constant support and encourages her to take the risk to figure out the truth behind the treasure map. “In the mix are her father’s old friend Dave Murphy, who seems to have the key to the scavenger hunt and her less than romantic boyfriend, Kevin Pritchard, who professes he has come to help her find the buried treasure,” said Ms. Black. “As her

search continues, she doubts the meaning behind these relationships. Who can she trust? Scarlett must seek guidance from her father’s spirit and learn to face her fears alone. “But with time running out and her trip to Maui drawing to a close, can she solve the mystery and find her father’s treasure? And what will be waiting for her if she does?” Currently, Ms. Black, who is studying for her master’s degree in elementary education, is planning to start a new career in teaching. “I’m also hoping to write another book about Scarlett’s adventures when she finds another treasure map,” she said. email: mmcmahon@newspress.com

Pico Iyer will again be featured on Hospice of Santa Barbara’s “Illuminate” speaker series on Aug. 18. Mr. Iyer is a novelist, travel writer and four-time TED Talk speaker.

Pico Iyer to speak at hospice ‘Illuminate’ series By MARILYN MCMAHON NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Hospice of Santa Barbara has adjusted to the new realities that come with COVID-19 by creating their “Illuminate” speaker series, which started last year and addresses aspects of the COVID19 pandemic along with help on how to navigate through this new reality. This virtual series features a new world-renowned speaker every month. “A Conversation with Pico Iyer” will be presented at 6 p.m. Aug. 18. The event is free, but registration is required. Charles Caldwell from Hospice of Santa Barbara will moderate. In the fall of 2020, Mr. Iyer kicked off the series with an exploration of coping with life under the pandemic. He will return to discuss some of the questions that have been on his mind recently as conditions keep evolving: How can any of us live differently as we emerge from the pandemic? And how has living so close to death for so long, as all the world has been doing these

past 18 months, changed and even instructed us? What might his adopted home of Japan have to offer as we think about grief, death and transitions? How has his thinking about loss changed after the death of his mother a few weeks ago? Mr. Iyer is a novelist, travel writer and four-time TED Talk speaker. He is the author of numerous books, including “The Global Soul,” “The Lady and the Monk,” and his bestselling “The Open Road,” a portrait of the Dalai Lama. One of his most recent books, “Autumn Light: Season of Fire and Farewells,” is a meditation on impermanence, mortality and grief seeded in his part-time home of Japan, a country whose calendar is marked with occasions honoring the dead. His books have been translated into 23 languages, and he has written liner notes for Leonard Cohen, a film script, a libretto for a chamber orchestra and the introductions to more than 60 other works. An essayist for TIME since 1986, Mr. Iyer is a consistent contributor for the New York

Times, Harper’s, Granta and more than 200 other newspapers and magazines worldwide. “We are very excited to have Pico join us once again. He has played a key role in our ‘illuminate’ Speaker Series over the past year, which officially launched when he was our keynote speaker for our virtual ‘Heroes of Hospice’ event last September,” said David Selberg, CEO of Hospice of Santa Barbara. “His connection with Santa Barbara combined with his world-wide appeal and experience makes him a valuable and highly regarded source for inspirational guidance in this time of uncertainty.” email: mmcmahon@newspress.com

Diversions

TAURUS Taurus, you may feel like you’re running in several directions at once. You’re so scattered that you don’t feel like you’re accomplishing anything important. That’s just the nature of the day. You have many loose ends to tie up. It’s hard to concentrate on the big picture when you’re out of groceries. Do whatever maintenance needs doing so you can move on to bigger things.

GEMINI Today you may be inspired to have a little fun with your looks, Gemini. You may wish to change your haircut or experiment with different colors or styles of clothing. It would be fun to get out of your routine, even if it just means donning funky sunglasses or bright Hawaiian patterns. You will feel lighter and more flirtatious.

CANCER Today’s energy has you rethinking all areas of your life, Cancer. If you aren’t as challenged by your job as you think you should be, perhaps it’s time for a change. The trick for you will be figuring out what it is that you want to do.

LEO You’re ready for dramatic change in your life, Leo. It isn’t that you’re dissatisfied with your career or personal life. Rather, you feel like you’re missing out on something great, if you only knew what. Be receptive to whatever opportunities arise and explore them all.

VIRGO Virgo, expect to meet someone new who will be a tremendous influence in your life - probably in your career. If you’ve been

frustrated by your lack of progress up the corporate ladder, take heart. This new person may be able to show you another way up.

LIBRA You’ve been on a wild ride for several months, Libra - all that excitement in your personal life and career! If major changes for the better haven’t yet occurred, know that they will. A promotion is in order, most likely accompanied by a raise.

SCORPIO Foreign lands and new opportunities beckon today, Scorpio! Keep your eyes and ears open as these opportunities may come to you from an unusual or unexpected source. You’re ready for a change of some kind in your personal or professional life.

SAGITTARIUS The astral energy indicates that you may have extra money in your pocket, Sagittarius. Take care to invest this money wisely rather than spend it all. You will be happier sacrificing short-term gratification for future financial gain.

‘Play Bridge With Me’

This is a passionate, creative day, Pisces. Your blood is hot and passion is on your mind. With luck, you have a significant other who can benefit! If not, you will have to find another way to burn off that energy. Invite a close friend for a jog. You’re in the mood to socialize. If you can’t have physical intimacy, be satisfied with emotional closeness.

Thought for Today

L A Q

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.
