SB Council votes to further enforce mask wearing

‘A welcomed surprise’

The Santa Barbara City Council passed a motion on Tuesday to increase police presence on the 500 block of State Street and other highly populated areas in order to enforce face mask wearing.

Most vacation options have gone by the wayside due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but there is one that is gaining large traction in Santa Barbara County: recreational vehicles. As cruises and long flights continue to be seen as a risky choice, families are choosing to buy RVs, commute across the state and get some fresh air. “We absolutely have seen a spike in reservations,” Matt Bernard, area general manager for Highway West Vacations, told the News-Press. Mr. Bernard oversees operations at Flying Flags RV Resort & Campground in Buellton and has been a bit shocked by the amount of people suddenly interested in renting and buying RVs. “This July is actually busier than last July was. We’ve seen a huge increase in demand for people looking to get out and get outside,” Mr. Bernard said. “People look at RVs as being sort of a safer way of traveling where everything is sort of self contained. “It’s obviously a welcomed surprise.” Genese Izuno, property manager of Santa Barbara

RV resorts see more reservations being taken, but demand might be too high By JORGE MERCADO NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Sunrise RV Park, has noticed a similar trend among an uptick in reservations, but also a new one as well. “In the summertime, we usually get a lot of international guests, and of course almost none are now, so more of our guests are from Southern California,” Ms. Izuno said. “A lot of them are renting our RVs for the first time.” Asked why she thinks there are people more interested in buying or renting RVs now than before, Ms. Izuno said it really has to do with the ability to control one’s own environment. “I am sure hotels do a great job, but you are walking through lobbies and things like that and even if it doesn’t have more risk, people can perceive it does,” Ms. Izuno said. “Especially when you’re traveling with a family… in an RV you can control costs.” Of course, with new buyers means that sometimes folks are a little unprepared. To mitigate the concerns, Ms. Izuno says they send an email out to RV renters looking to camp. The email contains a list of items one should have in order to safely RV, as well as instructions on how to do certain things. Please see rv on A8

Mayor Cathy Murillo has been sitting during the Pledge of Allegiance at the start of city council meetings. She told the News-Press the reason is because her camera is stationary and the decision was made to have her sit so she can look into the camera and salute. “Please know I have deep respect for our flag,” she said.

NEWS-PRESS CORRESPONDENT

The Santa Barbara City Council discussed how to further enforce face mask wearing in public in its meeting on Tuesday, particularly focusing on the State Street promenade which has become a highly populated area. The county health officer order issued on July 24 provides the city authority to enforce mask usage where an individual cannot keep a six-foot distance from others. This order is applicable to crowded public areas only and a violation would be an infraction equivalent to a monetary fine. The council unanimously passed a motion approving the educational enforcement via ambassadors and the police department, with the ability to write citations as a last resort with targeted enforcement in high-risk areas. The meeting began at 2 p.m. and Mayor Cathy Murillo was seated for the Pledge of Allegiance. “The camera in the city council chambers is a stationary computer. We decided that I would do the pledge seated so that I could look into the camera and we put an image of the American flag there that I am saluting,” she told the News-Press. She added, “Once a month I participate in the Santa Barbara County Association of Governments and Air Pollution Control District meetings, which are held in the County Board of Supervisors hearing room, where I participate in person. And I always stand for the flag salute for those meetings.” The mayor concluded saying remote meetings are challenging, but for everyone to “please know I have deep respect for our flag.” According to John Doimas, the assistant city attorney, the citations are equivalent to parking tickets, and ambassadors would need training to issue them. Those ticketed can appeal,

much like a parking citation. “Working in tandem with the ambassadors and the police department, the police department would have a presence on the (500 block of State Street) and coordinate an educational approach,” said Rob Dayton, the transportation planning and parking manager for the city. “By the authority of the badge and the uniform, you get more compliance than you would with an ambassador. We’ve gotten to 90% compliance with just the ambassadors and I think we can go the rest of the way with that (police) presence and revisit it if we think it needs more.” Nina Johnson, the senior assistant to the city administrator, gave a presentation on how the city has been encouraging compliance. Since June, masks have been mandatory in public, including outdoors if a six-foot distance is not possible, at work near other people or in common areas, inside any indoor public space, on public transportation and when ride-sharing. Masks can be removed when eating or drinking, not sharing a common area, outdoors with a six-foot distance, if wearing a mask poses a risk like getting stuck in machinery and if a hearing-impaired person needs to read lips. Exemptions include children under 2 years old, people with

respiratory issues, people who cannot remove a mask without help and anyone with a medical condition, mental health condition or disability who cannot wear a mask. In addition to education and signage in busy areas such as the State Street promenade, Mr. Dayton shared a survey the city has been conducting to determine why individuals don’t wear masks or take free ones offered to them. According to the survey, the number one answer is they forgot, followed by they intend to social distance, exercise, feel discomfort with the mask or they were not aware of the governor’s order. These responses represent 70% of the people who were not wearing masks this last weekend. “There was a big difference from the weekend before last and just this last weekend,” Mr. Dayton said. “We’ve been counting the number of people who have masks and who don’t. We were at 60/40 last weekend and now we’re at about 90% compliance.” Capt. Todd Stoney of the police department said they hope to educate residents about mask wearing in a similar way the city once educated residents about smoking in public. “There is always a strong desire by your police department to protect and make the community feel safe,” he said.

“The officers would prefer to have an educational component and the ability to engage the community in conversation as opposed to issuing a citation.” In other news, the council unanimously approved the fiscal year 2021 recommendations for coronavirus response grants. The senior community development programs specialist for the city, Elizabeth Stotts, presented the allocation breakdown. The city will receive $530,774 in funds, with $352,965 going toward rental assistance, $151,271 going toward public services and $26,538 going toward the administration. The CEO of United Way, Steve Ortiz, said that they are looking to use the rental assistance fund to serve about 200 households in Santa Barbara depending on the maximum allocation per individual. As of now, the maximum is $1,000 per household, but Mr. Ortiz said they have proposed $1,500 to $2,000 because of the higher rent in the city. The specific application for this grant money has not yet been uploaded to the United Way website, but residents can still apply now and be put on a waitlist. To learn more or apply, visit https://www.unitedwaysb.org/ covid19. Ms. Stotts added that the city does not yet know if there will be another round of block grant funds. In addition, the council discussed at length the ordinance amending the AUD program. They passed a motion to approve the staff recommendations of density, building height, and open yard incorporating the following changes: density overlay in the CBD, building height to 48 feet, open yard including the rooftop compromise, parking unbundled and a maximum one space and removal of the 250 units trial period. email: gmccormick@newspress.com

Senate, House spar over stimulus By PAUL GONZALEZ NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

On Monday, Senate Republicans unveiled their response to the Democrat-controlled House’s COVID-19 stimulus plan. The Republicans’ $1 trillion HEALS Act has not yet passed the Senate, but the proposal would provide a second injection of cash into the bank accounts of millions of eligible Americans and lawful permanent resident aliens. In late March, President Donald Trump signed a $2 trillion economic security package that provided $1200 Economic Impact Payments for eligible recipients, strengthened unemployment insurance benefits and provided forgivable loans to struggling businesses. The HEALS Act or Health, Economic Assistance, Liability Protection and Schools Act would provide a second $1200 Economic Impact Payment and $200 supplemental payments for weeks of unemployment through September. In October the $200 payment would be replaced by another payment of up to $500 dollars. The CARES act provided $600 per week in supplemental unemployment insurance benefits through July 2020. “When combined with the state UI payment, (the October payment) would replace 70% of lost wages—either via a formula specified in the bill or by a state proposing an alternative method and receiving approval from the Secretary,” a Senate Committee on Finance statement read. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell claimed the second round of checks would provide more support for families “who care for vulnerable adult dependents,” in a statement released on Monday. The House’s $3 trillion HEROES plan would continue the $600 unemployment insurance

supplements through January 2021. It would also provide a more generous $1200 payment per dependant, up to $6000 per household, compared to $500 per dependant of any age under the HEALS Act. The HEALS act would provide payments for individuals “who have no income, as well as those whose income comes entirely from non-taxable means-tested benefit programs, such as (Supplemental Security Income) benefits,” according to the Senate Committee on Finance statement. Under the HEROES act, full-time students up to age 24 and adults can be considered dependants. Both plans, like the CARES Act, require income tax returns to determine eligibility. “I voted for the Heroes Act in May because it provides the comprehensive relief that our country and our community needs right now. It’s disappointing that Senate Republicans put forward a plan that falls short of what’s necessary to address this crisis, contain the virus, reopen safely, and ensure Central Coast residents can provide for their families throughout this pandemic,” Democrat Representative Salud Carbajal of Santa Barbara said. “Americans are facing evictions, expiring unemployment insurance, a lack of access to child care, and so much more. I’m hopeful we reach a bipartisan compromise as soon as possible to bring desperately needed relief to Americans who are suffering,” Mr. Carbajal said. According to MarketWatch, the HEROES act forbids debt collectors from garnishing stimulus payments. It also contains language that prevents the Internal Revenue Service from offsetting stimulus payments for past-due child support. email: pgonzalez@newspress.com

HANK PITCHER IMAGES

Santa Barbara artist Hank Pitcher depicts the California culture by painting iconic local landmarks like the Coral Casino in Montecito.

Keeping it simple

‘Hank Pitcher’ is no-frills title of book about prominent local artist

ell-known Santa Barbara artist Hank Pitcher likes things simple, whether painting iconic scenes of contemporary California culture and the coastal landscape or describing their back stories. This message comes across loud and clear in the huge, coffee-table book, titled simply, “Hank Pitcher,” recently published by Sullivan Goss — An American Gallery. In the 254 pages are 211 illustrations that reflect Mr. Pitcher’s philosophy. “It’s important to me that my paintings be clear and recognizable. They look simple, which is the hardest thing of all — to make them simple and to write about them simply,” he told the News-Press during a phone interview from his unpretentious studio in Isla Vista. The best example are the paintings of surfboards standing upright in the sand with no background. Still an avid surfer at the age of 71, Mr. Pitcher writes in the book: “Surfboards look tribal, like shields, and as with shields, the shape, the size, color, and design all have meaning. You have a sense of where a surfer comes from and what to expect, or least what he or she would like you to expect. Surfboards, like automobiles, represent who someone is. “Recently I have been making paintings that try to show some of the tribal and individual significance surfboards can have. Stuck in the sand, the boards look modern and ancient at the same time, like something you would see on Easter Island or another planet.” Other photographs include botanicals, figures and portraits, architecture and scenes of the Gaviota Coast, Montecito, Santa Ynez, Winter Solstice, New Year’s Eve and The Bulls at Point Conception. “I’ve always thought that as a serious artist, I should be able to paint anything, especially what I know and what I love,” said Mr. Pitcher, who was born in Pasadena and moved to Isla Vista when he was 2 years old. “I was in the first elementary school in Isla Vista, which was all dirt roads then,” he said. Although he was interested in art for as long as he can remember, Please see pitcher on A4

At far right, Mr. Pitcher’s portraits include this one of his sister Charlene with the familiar blue roofs of the former Miramar Hotel in the background. At right is a scene of houses on Miramar Beach.

“I’ve always thought that as a serious artist, I should be able to paint anything, especially what I know and what I love,” Hank Pitcher said.

A surfboard stands upright in one of the paintings that demonstrate Mr. Pitcher’s blend of creativity and simplicity.

FYI The “Hank Pitcher” book is available for $60 at Sullivan Goss — An American Gallery, 11 E. Anapamu St.; Chaucer’s Books, 3321 State St. in Loreto Plaza; Lost Horizon Bookstore, 539 San Ysidro Road, Montecito; Tecolote Bookshop, 1470 East Valley Road, Montecito; Pierre Lafond Upstairs at Pierre Lafond, 516 San Ysidro Road, Montecito; and at amazon.com.

UCSB had a football team then,� said Mr. PItcher, who enrolled in the the university’s College of Creative Studies. “The first week of class,

Buckminster Fuller came to visit, and I quit the football team.� In 1971, Mr. Pitcher earned his bachelor’s degree from the CCS and while deciding where to go to graduate school was asked to teach in the college. “I’m still there,� he said with a laugh. “I’ve been teaching part time for almost 50 years, which allows me time for my painting. It’s the perfect arrangement. “I’m so lucky to have grown up in Santa Barbara, where I continue to live with my wife Susan and

two sons, Lincoln and Hart. In my paintings, I feel a commitment to tell the truth about the real Santa Barbara because there is so much cheap, exploitive and touristy artwork out there. “To paint something beautiful and truthful is really hard, but I believe in what the famous artist Paul Gauguin, said, ‘Making a good painting is like doing a good deed.’ � email: mmcmahon@newspress. com

Thought for Today

ARIES — Regardless of how you feel today, Aries, it’s important to own up to your mistakes. Keep in mind that you’re responsible for your actions. No matter how much you might want to shrink away, it’s important to stand up and admit your weaknesses. Take bold action today in which you command control of the situation and hold yourself responsible for the consequences. TAURUS — There’s an important lesson to learn today, Taurus, so don’t shy away from the classroom. It’s important to control your attitude now or it’s likely to control you. It could be that your ego is a bit too inflated. You may end up turning people away if you aren’t aware of how your actions affect them. Or it could be that you need to change your approach. GEMINI — Consider the romantic relationships in your life right now, Gemini. It’s important to remember that regardless of how hot and steamy a partnership is at first, it’s vitally important that there be something to replace that attraction once the initial romance wears off. Build your relationships from the ground up. Make sure that your romantic partner is also one of your very best friends. CANCER — Today is your day to become a hero, Cancer. You don’t have to be dressed in fancy tights and a cape to make an important difference in someone’s life. Step up to the plate even if it isn’t your turn at bat. True heroes are the ones who are able to do what needs to be done when necessary, regardless of the circumstances. LEO — There’s a great deal of fun to be had today, Leo. Money isn’t always necessary to make this happen, however. In fact, money isn’t a great way to keep score. Consider the sacrifices you make each time you strive to earn more cash. There’s a dynamic feeling in the air today that’s asking you to expand your mind in order to consider other ways to have fun. VIRGO — Remember that the important thing isn’t necessarily what you’re doing but the people you’re with, Virgo. There’s a great deal of passion in the air today that you can latch onto and put to good use. Have fun and remember to smile. You can make a great deal of progress toward your goals as long as you stay motivated. Connect with others and feel the strength of +*#!2 +1$)"$shared resources. LIBRA — You could learn a

HOROSCOPE tough lesson today, Libra. More than likely, the harder the message hits you, the more important it was for you to hear. It’s important that you accept failure gracefully. It could be that the one who kicks you when you’re down will also be the one who helps you get up. There are strange twists to this day that you may not expect. Take things in stride. SCORPIO — There’s a great deal of fuel to keep your fire raging today, Scorpio. Powerful situations are apt to come your way in which you’re asked to take decisive action. Don’t shy away from added responsibility. Your ego is very strong, which helps you take charge of any situation. Just make sure that you don’t step on anyone’s toes in the process. SAGITTARIUS — Remember that one wrong move today could cause you to have a headache for a good long while, Sagittarius. Don’t take uncalculated risks. There’s dynamism and confidence in the air, and even though you may be tempted to step off the ledge, think twice about doing so. Keep your parachute handy. Maintain your internal power by celebrating your uniqueness instead of your need to show off your daredevil spirit. CAPRICORN — It’s a long road to becoming exactly the person you want to be, Capricorn. You can’t change who you are. Input from every person you know and lessons from every bump in the road contribute to who you are as a person. Be proud of yourself, but also realize that there’s a great deal more internal development that needs to be done. Meditate or be alone for a little while. AQUARIUS — You should always leave a loved one with loving words, Aquarius. Each time you exit a room, consider that you’re never going to enter that room again. Perhaps you’ll never see those people again. Make sure you take care of the people you like. People might need extra attention today to feel appreciated and important to you. Cuddle up to the people who mean the most to you. PISCES — Just when you think you have absolutely no energy left, you’re able to kick into a higher gear. Push beyond your limits today, Pisces. You’ll find that you can achieve a great deal more than you thought. All you need to do is have confidence in yourself and try. You have a lot of dynamic power on your side. You will find that your strength is greater than ever.

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.

Santa Barbara-based EVmatch awarded Keeling Curve Prize By JOSH GREGA NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

Santa Barbara-grown company EVmatch was one of 10 organizations to be honored with the Global Warming Mitigation Project’s Keeling Curve Prize during an online ceremony Monday night. Hosted by CBS News meteorologist Jeff Berardelli and supermodel Amber Valletta, EVmatch was among the companies which received $25,000 for their extensive work addressing climate change, be it reducing carbon dioxide emissions or increasing CO2 uptake. By creating an app on which electric vehicle owners can list their privately owned charging stations with set prices and available times for public use, EVmatch is focused on the latter. In an interview with the NewsPress, the company’s CEO and founder Heather Hochrein said she and the others at EVmatch were “thrilled to be honored as innovatorsâ€? by receiving the Keeling Curve Prize. Global Warming Mitigation Project assistant director Ruth Metzel called EVmatch’s work “particularly timely,â€? as it increasingly allows electric vehicle owners to find and reserve charging stations wherever they go. “A lot of EV users already suffer from range anxiety ‌ that idea that there won’t be an EV charging station when they reach the end of their range,â€? she said. By creating a network of private charging stations for public use through its app, EVmatch is addressing what Ms. Hochrein called “a major barrierâ€? to people buying electric vehicles. “People will not buy electric cars if they don’t have reliable charging,â€? she said. According to Ms. Metzel, the Keeling Curve Prize receives more than 300 different applicants each year. Monday’s online ceremony was the third time the awards have been given out, with the annual prize debuting in 2017. After doing a preliminary evaluation of all the applications, the Global Warming Mitigation Project makes a qualitative, and most importantly, quantitative analysis of how the applicants have worked to impact the issue of climate change. The applicants are also asked how they plan on using the $25,000 prize should they win, but Ms. Metzel explained that the winners are ultimately allowed flexibility and autonomy in determining how to use it. Ms. Hochrein told the NewsPress that the $25,000 awarded to EVmatch will be used to

expand the company’s reach into underserved communities in Chicago. EVmatch started out as a research project Ms. Hochrein was conducting while studying for a graduate degree at UCSB’s Bren School of Environmental Science & Management. With the help of local investors and a grant from the university, she started the company out of graduate school and the company incorporated in September 2016. Though the company still operates to some degree in Santa Barbara, much of its team is currently in Los Angeles, with staff located throughout the state. EVmatch also has teams in parts of Colorado. The company’s interest in moving into Chicago neighborhoods is due to the city satisfying the criteria EVmatch looks at when deciding where to expand. According to Ms. Hochrein, her company looks at the electric vehicle market within a particular territory, state incentives for electric vehicles and EV charging stations, and a need for the EVmatch service. While EV charging stations are easier for those living in single family homes to adopt, it is a challenge for renters and those who live in apartments. Because Chicago has many apartment dwellers and renters, Ms. Hochrein said it’s a place filled with the kinds of people EVmatch aims to serve. “Our service is really focused on those who don’t have access to reliable home charging,� she said. “It’s a place we can have a huge impact with our solution.� email: jgrega@newspress.com

‘He grew in every leadership area over his time at Westmont’ spain

Continued from Page A2 points and 1.8 rebounds per game while mostly watching from the bench as the Warriors advanced to the NAIA National Championship game. But John Moore, who retired this year after 27 years as Westmont’s head coach, said McDonnell made as much improvement before the following season as any player he’s ever coached. “Sean was disappointed in his playing time that year and made significant improvement coming into his junior year,” he said. “He sprinted into the starting lineup and never looked back. “Sean’s growth has been inspiring. He did not allow himself to be boxed in by expectations.” He said McDonnell established himself as one of the best offensive rebounders in the program’s history. “He was relentless on the glass,” Moore said. “He ran the floor, sprinting by his defender every night, all night long.” McDonnell led the Warriors to a 21-11 record and back to the NAIA National Tournament during his

junior year. He ranked first on the team in rebounds with an average of 7.1 per game and second in scoring at 14.8 points. He took Westmont even further as a senior — to the NAIA Round of 16 — with averages of 12.1 points and 7.6 rebounds. “He was a hungry Warrior and found the perfect role for himself his junior and senior years,” Moore said. “He completely lost himself in the team and became a tremendous team leader. He was tenacious on himself and positive with his teammates. “He grew in every leadership area over his time at Westmont.” McDonnell finished his collegiate career ranked seventh in program history in field goal percentage (.578) and 25th in rebounds (525) despite having played just three seasons. Moore said he’s “enthusiastically recommended Sean every single time I have heard from an agent, general manager or a coach.” “Sean means a great deal to our program,” he said, “because he epitomizes what a Westmont education entails, and what our program thrives upon: growth, maturity and a deepened understanding of what is most important.”

McDonnell said he had never been challenged in a basketball setting before coming to Westmont. “Having to sit on the bench until I got better and learned how to take direction has helped me become more coachable,” he said. “Honestly, it was the first time I was really taught the game at that level. “I had never thought about the game the way coach Moore teaches it and it’s made me a better player without a doubt.” McDonnell admitted that his first two years in the lower divisions of European basketball were “a grind.” “A lot of people think once you’re over there you’re making a ton of money and living in highrises, but at the lower levels that’s not the reality,” he said. “That being said, the experience has been amazing for me. “I’ve been able to grow as a person and a player, travel around Europe and most importantly make money doing what I love. Every year my situations have been improving, so I really have no complaints.” He became a free agent earlier this summer before signing with CB Imprenta Bahía San Agustín. “I’ve signed a one-year deal

Warrecker holds Halos hitless in Foresters’ victory By MARK PATTON NEWS-PRESS SENIOR WRITER

Starting pitcher Bryce Warrecker hurled five no-hit innings as the Santa Barbara Foresters won their ninth straight summer collegiate baseball game, defeating the So Cal Halos 13-2 Tuesday night at Pershing Park. Warrecker (3-0), a June graduate of Santa Barbara High School, struck out six Halos. He retired their first 13 batters before walking Willie Barcena with one out in the fifth inning. He then got Jayden Fein to hit a ground ball to shortstop Matthew McLain for a double-play to complete his five-inning performance, facing the 15-batter minimum. The Cal Poly-bound righthander lowered his earned run average to 0.39. In nine appearances and 23 innings, Warrecker has struck out 36 and allowed just seven hits, two walks, and one run. Jace Jung and Christian Encarnacion both hit three-run home runs to power the victory. Jung briefly tied Encarnacion for the team lead when he belted his seventh homer of the year in the seventh inning. But Encarnacion pulled back ahead with his eighth by hitting a three-run shot in the next inning to cap Santa Barbara’s scoring. The Foresters (22-3) out-hit the Halos 142. Noah Cardenas went 4-for-5 and knocked in Santa Barbara’s first run, scoring Peyton Graham with a first-inning double. Graham’s two-run single capped a four-run fourth for the Foresters. Casey Dystra and Matthew McLain also had RBI singles in the

Encarnacion was also 2-for-5. His four-RBI night included a run-scoring single in the fifth. He leads Santa Barbara with 34 RBIs this summer. The Halos scored both of their runs in the sixth inning off reliever Charlie Adamson. Rudy Aguilar led off with a walk and took third on Ethan Hagan’s double. After a hit batter loaded the bases, So Cal scored on a ground out and a fly out. Three other Santa Barbara relievers — Titus Groeneweg, Nick Proctor and Elijah Trest pitched a scoreless inning apiece. Trest closed out the victory by retiring the side in the ninth with a pair of strikeouts. The Foresters will return to Pershing Park tonight at 6 o’clock to play Santa Maria Pea Soup Andersen’s.

in hopes that I can take another leap after a good season there,” McDonnell said. “They were fifth last season before COVID-19 hit and historically are one of the best clubs in LEB Gold. They played in the finals of the whole thing in 2019.” He is now home in Encinitas, awaiting approval of a travel visa so he can return to Spain next month. “Training has been a little difficult on the basketball side because of the gym closures, but just doing the best I can,” McDonnell said. “Lots of shooting and working out outside, which honestly isn’t a bad thing because if you can make it out there, a nice indoor court should be a lot easier.” His team’s training camp is set to begin in September with games starting in October. “I’ll keep playing as long as my body allows and as long as I’m having fun with it,” McDonnell said. “Hopefully for another 10 years or so. “The trajectory I’m on right now is really encouraging and I want to see where I can take this.” email: mpatton@newspress.com

NAIA postpones fall championships The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics has announced the postponement of fall sports championships until the spring of 2021. The announcement will affect five sports at Westmont College, including men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s soccer and women’s volleyball. The future championship dates have not been determined, though they are expected to be held in April, according to Ron Smith, sports information director for Westmont. The NAIA left it up to the conferences to determine when each will conduct its season. Westmont’s conference, the Golden State Athletic Conference, will meet later this week to consider its options, Smith said. “Given the fast-paced and constantlychanging nature of the current environment, the COP recognized that the likelihood of safely completing the fall sports season has decreased significantly,” read an email from NAIA Council of Presidents chair Arvid Johnson and NAIA president and CEO Jim Carr. “This decision allows conferences the autonomy to consider the regional impact of COVID-19 when determining the appropriate time for regular season competition. It also increases flexibility by permitting a current, split, or entirely postponed regular season, all of which can precede postseason play.” Men’s and women’s soccer, as well as women’s volleyball players, had been scheduled to report to campus at the end of the first week of August. Smith said those plans have been “curtailed” and those student athletes will now come to campus with the rest of the study body. More details are expected later this week.

Flying Flags RV Resort & Campground is seeing record high reservations in the month of July with more people exploring the RV vacationing option.

continue to see the trend in the coming years.” Flying Flags is also taking every precaution they can welcoming guests, moving all check-in outside and having increased sanitizer options. The site’s cafe and stores are also closed for indoor operations, but people can order and have everything delivered to them. “I think these new changes in our operation provide for a more efficient experience,” Mr. Bernard said. Still, while the demand is high, the supply is dimming by the day. Mr. Brewer is the president of Pacific Coast RV, a company that sells RVs, trailers and also provides services for those items. He himself is a third-generation RV business owner as both his father and grandfather were in the business as well. Mr. Brewer also noted that while people wanting to buy RVs are through the roof, there is not enough supply to meet the demand.

GARTRELL, Nan Surges Weyler

Nan Surges Weyler Gartrell passed away at her home in Santa Barbara on July 27, 2020. Nan was best defined by her passion for helping others, artistic talent, and love for those around her. She was born April 11, 1929 in Santa Barbara to Herbert Earhart and Rebecca Lucile (Bergen) Weyler. She resided in Santa Barbara her entire life, always making new friends along the way. She attended Santa Barbara Girls School, Peabody, La Cumbre Jr. High, and graduated Santa Barbara High School. She worked for several years at I Magnin until she married her high school sweetheart, Gregory Gartrell, in 1948. They had three children, Nanette, Gregory Jr. and Yvonne, all raised in Santa Barbara. Nan worked as a bookkeeper after the children were grown. When Greg Sr. started County Lumber Company, she opened a bookkeeping service for local doctors and lawyers. Nan did volunteer work most of her adult life. Starting at the County Geriatrics Hospital, she also volunteered at the Well Baby Clinic and later at local schools teaching art to kindergarten students and first graders. She served on the Luria Library Board at City College. She loved murder mysteries, quirky art and sculptures, and was the chess champion of the family. She was a skilled watercolorist and displayed work at local galleries. Nan’s favorite accomplishments were designing and building her last home and writing a children’s book, Little Raindrop. She was especially grateful to Rose, who became her caregiver and a best friend, and to Dennis Baker, MD, and Hospice Care Manager Laura Guerrero for their compassionate support. Nan was preceded in death by her parents, her sisters Rebecca Sheuerman and Virginia Porter, husband, Gregory Gartrell, and daughter, Yvonne. She is survived by her brother Jack Weyler of Houston Texas, daughter Nanette Gartrell MD (Diane Mosbacher, PhD, MD), son Gregory Gartrell PhD (Mary Eichbauer PhD) and grandson Nathan Gartrell (Sarah Gartrell), and great-granddaughter Scarlett Gartrell, her sister-in-law Ann Gartrell, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews, and her two Siamese kitties, Ty and Chi. In lieu of flowers, please consider making a contribution in Nan’s memory for scholarships at Santa Barbara City College. Please address the contributions to SBCC Foundation, 721 Cliff Drive, Santa Barbara, CA 93109. Please note “In Memory of Nan Gartrell” in the memo line. The above photo was taken in 2009, when Nan was 80 years old.

“As far as sales go, the demand is very high. Probably the highest it’s ever been, but we have a major shortage of inventory so because of our shortage, our sales are actually going to be down because we can’t get a good supply going,” Mr. Brewer said. The COVID shutdowns forced the closure of many manufacturers and their output is way down as a result. “You couple that with supply chain shortages of parts and you have a major supply issue,” Mr. Brewer said. He added that he currently only has about 30% of the inventory from last year, and even that is shared among his four locations. In fact, Mr. Brewer even had to delay the opening of his newest and fifth location in Nipomo due to the lack of inventory. He also isn’t shocked by this latest development either. “It doesn’t surprise me at all, we knew it was going to happen, we just didn’t know that our manufacturers are not going to be

able to keep up with supply, it’s not even close,” Mr. Brewer said. He added that there are also a lot of RVs in advance where people sign to eventually get their RV once manufacturers can provide as well as backups. But, the increase in demand has also led to an increase in price. “Everyone is like ‘oh, it’s so great,’ and I mean it’s great, it’s awesome. RV’s are amazing, I’ve been saying it forever… but at the end of the day, it’s really sad because the ones that I do have coming in, the price increases are massive,” he said. Mr. Brewer added that in an auction, he saw a one-year old used trailer go for $3,000 more than listed for. “This is the first time I can ever remember that our value guide that we use, that the values have gone up substantially,” Mr. Brewer said. “Someone who owns an RV, it’s probably worth more now, which is crazy, and feels like it goes against the laws of business.” He added that he has even bought some used RVs from previous owners with negotiation just because he wants to have the inventory. He expects to run out of inventory within the next two months and not expect a new shipment until 2021. He currently has 200 units on backlog. Still, while it is a bit scary, Mr. Brewer is up to the task and he is hopeful he can get the RVs into people’s hands as soon as possible. “What better way to see our country than an RV? A lot of people are buying them because it’s their own space and it’s clean and it is a little scary now, I can’t lie. You’re trying not to sell yourself out of business, and it’s crazy to think about but, we will figure it out,” Mr. Brewer said. email: jmercado@newspress.com

RV industry is dealing with a ‘major supply issue’ People at the site will also help as well, but can only help if people have the proper equipment. “People who rent are not always as careful as they could be or should be… and that’s sad for us because it starts their trip on a bad note,” Ms. Izuno said. They also send videos on how to park and drive RVs in reverse. “We suggest they watch those before they go to pick it up. Don’t get in a hurry, don’t let people rush you, take somebody with you and somebody take notes,” Ms. Izuno said. For Mr. Bernard, his team is also ready to help new RV buyers at a moment’s notice. “We welcome the opportunity to be able to introduce people to the world of RVing, it’s one of our passions so we’re happy to have both a new generation and perhaps a new demographic of people that are RVing that previously weren’t,” Mr. Bernard said. While RVing may seem popular now because of COVID, Mr. Bernard believes this trend could be here to stay. “We know a lot of folks that are first time RV buyers that had never previously given it thought and then they’re introduced to the world of our being and they’re able to stay in a Luxury RV Resort like ours and they fall in love with it,” Mr. Bernard said. “It’s obviously different than perhaps what people are used to of staying in a hotel but I think people enjoy having the ability, you know to be outside and with our property with multiple swimming pools and, you know, lots of space to spread out. “I think it’s a new way for people to travel that perhaps they hadn’t considered and I do think we will
