Local school property wins reprieve; $16.5M sale shelved by SDUSD

BY MARIKO LAMB BEACH & BAY PRESS

The former Mission Beach Elementary School campus property — a more than twoacre bayside property in the heart of Mission Beach — was taken off the sales chopping block at the San Diego Unified School District (SDUSD) board’s Oct. 9 meeting, much to the satisfaction of the Mission Bay Cluster and SDUSD beach-area representative Scott Barnett. “We are grateful to the Board of Education for recognizing

heroic rescue by 20-year San Diego lifeguard veteran Marc Brown at an unforgiving site known as the “gorilla cage” in the Tijuana River Valley did not go unnoticed by the U.S. Lifeguard Association (USLA) or the city of San Diego, both of which have honored Brown for his courageous act. The San Diego City Council proclaimed Oct. 23 to be “Lifeguard Marc Brown Day,” and councilmembers Sherri Lightner and David Alvarez presented Brown with the USLA’s highest honor — the Medal of Valor — to recognize his extraordinary act of bravery on a rainy night in November 2011. The rescue began when Brown and his sergeant, Troy Keach, were called to duty from their Mission Bay headquarters to the Tijuana River Valley. According to the emergency dispatcher, a suspected illegal immi-

grant was trapped inside a drainpipe near a water-treatment facility at the U.S.-Mexico border. Under the perilous circumstances, Brown’s qualifications as a river-rescue team member warranted him the role as the lead rescuer at the scene. “The pipe drains from the top and it comes down this giant cement culvert at the bottom,” Brown explained. “There is a cage to protect all the debris, so you’ve got tires, wood, plastic contaminants — anything you can possibly think of coming from the hillsides in Tijuana is coming down that pipe.” During heavy rains, Border Patrol agents open floodgates to a number of drainpipes, allowing water to dump into catch basins in the Tijuana River Valley to prevent flooding in Tijuana. On days with heavy downpours, immigrants attempting SEE VALOR, Page 6

National-security summit to close Paradise Point to public Oct. 29-Nov. 2 STAFF AND CONTRIBUTION The HALO Counter-Terrorism Summit, a national-security training event, will temporarily shut down the Paradise Point Resort at Mission Bay, beginning Oct. 29. The summit will bring together national security experts to educate and train those who work to keep America safe, both at home and abroad. Participating members include members of the military, law enforcement,

emergency-response agencies and the intelligence community, according to organizers. The summit is a private event that will run through Nov. 2. As a result, Paradise Point will be closed to the general public through mid-afternoon on Nov. 2. The two public parking lots east and west of the property will also be closed to the public during the event. Summit delegates will observe live-action

demonstrations conducted jointly with Strategic Operations, a military training company that has provided pre-deployment training to more than 600,000 military personnel in the last decade. Strategic Operations is affiliated with Stu Segall Productions, one of the largest independent TV/movie studios in the country. SEE HALO, Page 10

This San Diego Unified School District property at 825 Santa Barbara Place in Mission Beach was initially slated to be sold by the Board of Education, but the site was removed from the list.

Centenarian in PB still going strong on eve of 100th b-day BY MARSHA KAY SEFF BEACH & BAY PRESS

When centenarian Harry Bogue looks back on his beloved Pacific Beach, he might be thinking, “I built that.” His lumber, in fact, did go into many of the local buildings. A Pacific Beach resident since the weather brought him to the beach in 1938, he worked for and managed Pacific Beach Lumber (which became Western Lumber) for 40 years before retiring in 1978. The father of two, grandfather of four and great-grandfather of six celebrates his 100th birthday on Friday, Oct. 26. He recalls building his own home on Diamond Street in 1938 and raising his family there. The cost for the land was $1,500 and

QUICKHITS Investigators hunt for home-invasion robber Police officials are searching for the suspect in an apparent home-invasion robbery in Mission Beach on Oct. 20. According to the resident of the home in the 800 block of Lido Court, the suspect entered the residence through an unlocked door shortly after 8:30 p.m. and put something to the head of the resident that the victim believed was a gun. The suspect demanded the resident’s wallet and cell phone before fleeing. The victim told police he chased after the suspect but lost sight of him. The suspect is described as a white male in his 20s, with a thin build and wearing a dark hoodie and shorts.

Son of SDPD captain pleads not guilty The son of a San Diego police captain pleaded not guilty Oct. 10 to seven misdemeanor counts involving sexual battery, assault and vandalism in connection with a drunken incident in Pacific Beach. Alex Guaderrama, 23, is accused of groping two women outside a taco shop around 1 a.m. on Aug. 21 in the 1100 block of Garnet Avenue. He’s accused of hitting a third woman and smashing a car window, which injured his hand. Officers took Guaderrama to a hospital for treatment of the hand wound and released him. The department has taken heat for not arresting Guaderra-

ma after his hospital release. Some critics allege preferential treatment because his father is SDPD Capt. Manny Guaderrama. A police spokesperson, however, said the treatment was not unusual considering Guaderrama needed hospital care and his mother was called as a result of that. There are no felony charges pending. A San Diego Superior Court judge ordered Guaderrama to wear a device on his ankle that monitors alcohol use. Guaderrama was ordered to abstain from alcohol and released on his own recognizance. The City Attorney’s Office filed the misdemeanor charges against him. If convicted, the younger Guaderrama could face a term of one year in jail. A hearing has been set for Jan. 8. — Neal Putnam

to illegally enter into the U.S. from Mexico use the drainpipes as passageways into the Tijuana River Valley. At this particular catch basin, a steel cage capped the drainpipe opening, shielding rescuers from the man trapped 20 feet below. “There’s a two-foot opening that this person squeezed into and went down. He landed on a ledge that was no wider than a step with rebar coming out of the footing,” said Brown. “As I got down to him, he was standing there hanging onto this piece of nylon rope that the Border Patrol had thrown down to him.” With hundreds of gallons of water quickly rushing into the pipe, the man was quite literally teetering on the precipice of life and death. A fall down the drainpipe would have almost certainly led to death. “It was just a giant, black hole. The pipe extends another quarter of a mile underneath the ground,” he said. “Inside the pipe, there is just a bunch of debris. You’ve got rocks, boulders — whatever you can think of is in there. Everything in there is going to be a hazard, or it’s going to be something you’re going to get snagged upon and basically drown.” The darkness in the pipe and the strength of the water hammering down impaired Brown’s senses throughout the rescue. “I couldn’t see. I’m having to lower down and have water completely dousing on top of me, so my sense of whereabouts are skewed,” Brown said. “As I’m getting lowered, I don’t want to knock him off the ledge. It’s a small, two-footby-eight-inch step that he’s stepping on and he’s being pounded by water.” To make matters worse, the pipe was bound to fill up at any second, creating an inherent sense of urgency. After several long minutes, Brown was able to strap a chest harness on the man and make the arduous journey upward together. “Coming back up, you’re just meeting so much resistance. It was even more of a challenge because you fight your [harness] system, and you have hundreds and hundreds of gallons of water that’s just knocking on top of you that you’re fighting as they’re pulling you up,” he said. “All the forces are going against you, and you’re just hoping,

education.” The school board voted to sell the prime parcel of real estate in June, along with four other SDUSD-owned properties, in an attempt to help plug a $26.7 million hole in the district’s impending $120 million deficit in the coming school year. “The Mission Bay Elementary School property is one of the most remarkable properties in the world with its proximity to the beach and the bay,” said Barnett. “While using proceeds from sales of property for one-time maintenance and other one-time needs — as opposed to using funds for ongoing expenditures — is appropriate, I ideally feel that we need to do everything we can to maintain ownership.” Both the local school cluster and Barnett have pushed for adaptive reuse of the now-vacant site with an aim of generating a steady stream of long-term revenue for the school district. “While we must keep an eye on the fact that we will be consistently in need of revenues for our schools, we also want to be good neighbors and fit in with the community,” said Barnett. “By retaining ownership, we can limit what the developer would propose on a site, as well as receive long-term ongoing revenue streams.” The top bid for the Mission Beach property, which was initially expected to rake in a minimum of $11 million, was bid at $16.5 million by the San Francisco-based Carmel Partners, LLC. Two properties which the board did vote to sell — a nine-acre parcel at Barnard Elementary School’s campus in Point Loma and nearly seven acres of

‘Please, something don’t break.’” Just minutes after Brown’s successful rescue, the pipe overflowed with water. Had Brown delayed on any number of factors, the rescuers may have been pulling up two lifeless bodies instead. Thanks to Brown’s unwavering confidence, level-headedness and quality training, both men were retrieved from the pipe unscathed and Brown was appropriately honored for his selfless act of courage and skill. Despite the peril, Brown said he had no reservations about going down to execute the swift-water rescue. “It just comes with the job. That’s why I’m on the river-rescue team. That’s one of the things that — being a lifeguard — you love to do is to help people and save people,” he said. “That’s what you’re in it for. You’re not in it for the accolades or the awards or anything like that. You do it based on your nature.” With wife Kerry and two young children — Bridget, 3, and Nathan, 1 — at home, Brown is cognizant of the fact that his family needs him to be a father and husband, not necessarily a hero or a cowboy. “You have precious cargo that wants to see you on a daily basis at home, so just keep that as a mental note in the back of your mind. Do your job and do your job well, but don’t be reckless,” he said. “If you can do what you can do based on your training ability and your experience and the equipment that you have, then that’s what’s going to make a successful rescue. You’re not going to run into a burning building without any rescue experience and without any gear. That’s just suicide.” Despite his mantra of “Don’t be a hero,” Brown set himself apart as one of San Diego’s lifesaving forces, a man who voluntarily risked his life to save another and creating for himself a heroic role in the eyes of the community.

north onto vacant land with no trees in sight, said Lindy, pointing to an old photo. The elder Bogues were married for six decades. Their son and his family live in that home now, across from the Pacific Beach Recreation Center, built with lumber sold by Bogue. Bogue was born in Imperial Valley and later moved to Lakeside in a covered wagon. Still spry, smiling and already looking forward to his birthday, Bogue said he is frustrated that he can’t recall details of his 10 decades.

vacant land at Bay Terrace in Clairemont — is expect $3.1 million, respectively, in property sales. With the Mission Beach property off the market, SDUSD will have to make more tough decisions to help fill the massive 2012-13 school year budget shortfall. The funds must be available by June 30, 2013 in order to count toward next year’s budget. “The current year 2012-13 budgeted shortfall from real estate sales is approximately $4 to $5 million after the sale of the two other properties,” said Barnett. “There is a smaller property in East Elliott, which my guess will have four [board] votes to sell in November or December. That would fill the current hole.” As for the Mission Beach site, a number of options are available to the community by retaining ownership, said Barnett. “The ideal goal is to work with private developers to enter into a joint-occupan-

cy agreement to develop properties with appropriate private uses, including public uses, such as a park, parking or community meeting rooms,” Barnett said. Other ideas for the site range from public-private partnerships for highdensity apartments, a luxury boutique hotel or high-end condos or town houses — all with varying degrees of impact to the community and rates of return, said Barnett. The decision must be a communityminded one, he said. “My No. 2 priority as a school board member — after pushing for the highest quality education for our kids — is to deal with the financial nightmare we are facing for the foreseeable future and try to develop long term, local, consistent revenues which cannot be taken away by the state,” he said. “I am convinced we can do so while being a good neighbor and adding public benefits and uses to a joint development with the private sector,” Barnett added.

“I used to remember so well for a long time, oh my goodness,” he said, trying to force some memories to the forefront. But photo albums — with pictures starting in sepia and moving to black and white and, later, color — help jog his memory. His family fills in the rest of events that he hates he’s forgotten. According to Martinet, her grandpa became a charter member of the Pacific Beach Lions Club in 1940 and had perfect attendance at meetings for more than 60 years. He still proudly wears his yellow Lions baseball cap. Bogue was also on the board of directors of the Pacific Beach Town Council and was a member of the Chamber of

Commerce. “He was on the council of the PB Recreation Center and contributed to PB any way he could,” Martinet said. Bogue remembers dancing at the Crystal Pier. “Wherever there was any dance hall, I was dancing,” said Bogue. “I’d rather dance than eat.” And he loved the beach. He rode his bicycle to the boardwalk until he was 85. Now in a retirement home in Clairemont, Bogue is coy when asked if he’s popular with the female residents. “I’m not saying much about it,” he said. “[But] Oh yeah, I enjoy life very much.”

Safety first in kids' Halloween costumes Dressing up and engaging in role play is an important component of childhood learning and having fun. Although costumes are regularly used in day care centers, schools and at home, they become the center of attention when Halloween arrives. The practice of wearing costumes dates back at least 2,000 years to ancient Europeans and Celts. These cultures celebrated a holiday called Samhain, which represented their new year. Samhain fell on November 1 and marked the first day of winter after the summer harvest. These ancient people associated the winter with coldness, darkness and death and believed the day before Samhain - October 31 -- established a distorted boundary between the living and the dead. Therefore, individuals wore costumes and masks to avoid being recognized by the ghosts that came out on the night of Samhain. They would also place bowls of food outside of their homes to satisfy the ghosts and keep them from entering the home. Although Halloween has transformed more into a commercial holiday than one that wasset forth many years ago, most notably wearing costumes. Parents may want to ensure that the costumes their children wear are safe to help make Halloween a day without injury. • Create a cape that doesn't choke. A long cape can be stepped on and then tug at a child's neck. • Check makeup labeling. There are many safe Halloween cosmetics on the market, but some should not be used around the eyes or mouth because allergic reactions could occur. Double-check all ingredients lists and package warnings before using makeup on children, who tend to have more sensitive skin than adults. • Keep eyes open. Masks are popular components of Halloween costumes, but some designs can obstruct vision or even impair breathing. Masks always should be comfortable to wear and offer good forward and peripheral views. • Choose natural materials for costumes. Buying a pre-made costume at the store may save you time and money, but there may be safer options if you construct a costume yourself. Many costumes are made overseas and may contain materials that are toxic or off-gas volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), particularly plastic and vinyl products. Breathing in the fumes can be dangerous to young children. • Go organic. There are a number of companies that are now making Halloween costumes from organic fabrics and recycled materials. A simple online search can give you a host of prospects. • Make it visible. Trick-or-treating at night can be, well, tricky. Darkness can make it hard for drivers and other pedestrians to see costume-clad children. If going door-to-door will be happening at night, consider giving children glow sticks or flashlights to carry. There also are reflective tapes that can be attached to costumes that make them light up when lights shine on the tape. Halloween is meant to be a time of fun and adventure. Ensuring costumes are safe for children can help make the day even more enjoyable for all involved.

Sockers open season with Nov. 3 match at sports arena BY JOHNNY MCDONALD | BEACH & BAY PRESS The San Diego Sockers, perennial kings of arena soccer, open their defense of the Professional Arena Soccer League (PASL) title at the Valley View Casino Center (formerly the San Diego Sports Arena) on Nov. 3 against the expansion Sacramento Surge team. On top of that, the Sockers will be putting a 37-game win streak on the line. They’re three away from the alltime record, which makes this game an interesting matchup. Accommodatingly, three of the first four in a 16-game season will be on the home floor. Other home games will be

played against Phoenix, Mexico, Tacoma, Anaheim, Turlock, Dallas and Arizona. After three unbeaten seasons at the Del Mar Arena, the team returns to a home where it captured sports fans’ favor. Winning 10 championships seemed to be routine every time they reached the arena floor. San Diego has not lost a home game since entering the PASL, going a perfect 35-0 at the Del Mar Arena all-time. The PASL playoffs and championship game will be held at the Center on March 1011. “The PASL has expanded dramatical-

ly and this should be the most challenging year yet for the Sockers,” said Sockers general manager John Kentera in reaction to the schedule’s release. “With returning rivals Anaheim, Tacoma and Phoenix and tough new franchises like Dallas coming into the league, we expect to have our hands full this season. This will be the greatest year yet to come and bring out the family for indoor excitement at the VVCC.” The expanded 19-team PASL includes a newly formed Pacific Division, which will include the Sockers, Anaheim Bolts, Tacoma Stars, Turlock Express and the Surge.

Bucs overpower Vikings in 42-7 homecoming rout BY KEITH ANTIGIOVANNI | BEACH & BAY PRESS The Mission Bay Buccaneers improved their record to 5-3 overall and 2-1 in the Western League after a convincing 42-7 victory over the archrival La Jolla Vikings on Oct. 19. The Buccaneers’ win took place during homecoming, as well as the sixth annual Mission Bay Alumni Association (MBAA) weekend. “This year, homecoming was the most memorable in my four years here and we had a huge crowd,” said MBHS principal Fred Hilgers. “Pam Dietz of the MBAA and her team have done a great job. They were set up in the north end zone selling tacos for $2, which goes to the MBAA for next year’s homecoming.” Hilgers added that he gave a tour to 30 Buccaneer alumni from Mission Bay class of 1962 and that he hopes to put together a planning committee for the 60th anniversary of the opening of Mission Bay next year. “We hope to include the alumni group as well as get the community involved,” Hilgers said. Mission Bay dominated in the first half and built a 28-7 first-half lead before pulling away in the fourth period with two more touchdowns. On the flipside, the defense held La Jolla quarterback senior David McColl to only two completions on nine attempts for 46 yards.

All events are acoustically designed to be fully contained within Paradise Point, organizers said. Should any sound leave the property, it will be within the noise levels allowed under the city’s municipal code. Organizers also stressed the training poses no danger or hazard to the public.

The Bucs defense also stopped McColl on the ground by holding him to minus 25 yards on six carries, forced three fumbles and four punts. The Buccaneers currently trail the co-leaders in the Western League — Madison and Point Loma (both 2-0) — by a half-game while La Jolla High

Servicemembers, law enforcement officers and emergency responders at all levels will have the opportunity to collaborate with their counterparts and receive valuable training that will keep our communities and citizens safer, whether locally, nationally or abroad.” The HALO Counter-Terrorism Summit draws the best and brightest minds from national security, including keynote speakers like former CIA and NSA director Gen. Michael Hayden; Mexico’s Secretary of the Interior Alejandro Poiré Romero; and Deputy Chief Michael Downing, the commanding officer of the LAPD’s Counterterrorism and Special Operations Bureau.
