What’s changing when San Diego County moves to Orange Tier?

By JOSÉ A. ÁLVAREZ | The Beacon

The County will move into the Orange Tier of the state’s COVID-19 prevention framework on April 7, further easing restrictions and allowing more indoor activities.

The region can move into the Orange Tier of the Blueprint for a Safer Economy because its case rate has been under six cases per

every 100,000 residents for the last two weeks, after moving to the Red Tier on March 17. The move comes after the state raised the case rate threshold for counties to meet after meeting a goal to vaccinate more than four million Californians who live in areas with the least healthy community conditions.

Now, to qualify for the Orange Tier, a region must have a case rate

between 2 and 5.9 case per every 100,000 residents. The County’s case rate is now 5.8 cases per every 100,000 residents.

“We have made significant progress in lowering our local case rate,” said Wilma Wooten, M.D., M.P.H., County public health officer. “San Diegans should enjoy the benefits while continuing to take appropriate measures to protect

themselves and others, especially washing their hands, wearing a mask, watching their distance and, when it’s their turn, getting vaccinated.”

Here are some of the activities now allowed under the Orange Tier: • Restaurants: Indoor seating increases to 50% capacity or 200 people maximum. The 10 p.m. to 5 a.m. curfew is also ending.

A BETTER WAY TO WATCH SUNSETS?

Plan proposed to create mini park at Del Monte overlook

By DAVE SCHWAB | The Beacon

Point Loma residents are mulling the creation of a mini park experience to improve the Del Monte Avenue overlook while addressing the sometimes problematic sunset-viewing crowds drawn there.

Mandy Havlik, a Peninsula Community Planning Board member speaking for herself, has been working with Del Monte residents around the overlook on possibly securing City approvals to transform the steep site into a mini park of some kind. Improvements envisioned include benches and landscaping.

“Back in October (2020), we were approached by Gary Pence (City engineer) to review the area about making recommendations to the City about the issue brought up by neighbors about problems with crowds coming out for the sunsets and not necessarily being respectful and making noise and leaving trash,” said Havlik.

“We were asked by the City if we wanted to make a recommendation on whether or not to install bollards (a short post used to divert traffic from an area or road) or a barricade of some sort to stop people from parking at that lookout point.”

District 2 Councilmember Dr. Jennifer Campbell’s office said it is continuing to work with the community to find a solution to crowd issues at the overlook, as well as exploring enhancing the site both aesthetically and functionally.

“Since August 2020, Josh Coyne, director of policy, has been engaged with City staff and a coalition of Point Loma residents to find the best path forward for this deadend section of Del Monte Avenue,” said Jordan Beane, District 2

A beautiful sunset in April as seen from the Del Monte Avenue overlook.

communications/environmental policy advisor. “The community presented the City with short-term and long-term solutions. We have been advocating for and supporting all options to allow this space to have a more positive impact on the community.”

Added Beane: “The complexity of this dead-end, also a City ‘right of way,’ is that it includes an access point to a resident’s personal driveway and home. While we work on a more permanent solution, we thank City staff for their recent work to install no-parking signs to allow the police department more enforcement resources. We look forward to continuing our work with the community on this issue.”

In an email, Coyne noted: “It’s unclear if a pocket park is an option based on this being in the public right of way. We expect those findings to come back in the next 45 days. We will report back when

THOMAS MELVILLE/PENINSULA BEACON

they are available.”

Ocean Beach Planning Board has also reviewed the Del Monte and Guizot overlook and made recommendations as to what planners feel could be done to improve the site and make it more secure.

“We moved to relocate the vehicle barrier 15-feet back and narrow the driveway easement to 10 feet,” said OBPB chair Andrea Schlageter in a letter to the City.

“This will allow room for vehicles and more safe space for people to use the space.”

Schlageter added a friendly amendment was made by the planning group to support “adding benches to the site with the intention of that space being maintained as a pocket park.”

Noting OBPB’s recommendations passed narrowly by an 8-7 vote, Schlageter added: “The dissenting votes were from board members who did not want to

opine on things that were outside of our planning group. Although, the overall consensus was that we did not like how the bollards are placed. But the community is invested in keeping that an open access to the public.”

Don Sevrens, another Peninsula planner speaking on his own behalf, suggested the overlook is so unique that improving it may require an entirely new designation.

“Pocket park is the wrong term,” he said. “Turning a dead-end street with stairs down to the base of the cliff with possible benches and a few shrubs demands a term of its own with lower expectations.

My understanding is that bollards could be moved forward and parking banned on the dead-end portion. One neighbor has an easement to protect his driveway access. But that does not seem to be an issue or threat to his right.”

Lohman said: “The City of San Diego and Brookfield Properties continue to discuss the next steps in the redevelopment opportunity for the Sports Arena site in the Midway District, inclusive of an affordable housing component as part of Brookfield Properties’ development plan. A project of this scale and community impact is a multi-year, collaborative effort that takes time.

“We remain committed to the relationships and conversations underway with local government and stakeholders.

We all look forward to updating the community over time as we have news to share.”

“There are still conversations happening between the City and Brookfield; however, pending the outcome of the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) guidelines regarding the Surplus Land Act (SLA), formal negotiations have been paused,” said Racquel Vasquez, senior City spokesperson.

“HCD has broadened the interpretation of the SLA to include leases and thus formal negotiations have paused, but there are still conversations taking place between the parties on a regular basis. We are waiting for the HCD to issue final guidelines that will provide clarity.”

Vasquez noted that at the time the RFP was issued and Brookfield was awarded the bid, the City had interpreted the Surplus Land Act to only apply to situations where a city was selling surplus property. “Since this proposed development was structured as a lease, the City believed that the SLA did not apply,” she said. “Based on draft guidelines from the HCD, it would appear that the Sports Arena property would not be exempt. We are waiting for the state agency to issue the final guidelines.”

Asked if it is possible redevelopment may be put out again for a request for proposals, Vasquez replied, “The City will follow the requirements of HCD and the SLA and will make a decision per the final guidelines. There is no intention to issue a new request for proposals at this time.”

Now known as Pechanga Arena San Diego, the former Sports Arena at 3500 Sports Arena Blvd. was built for $6.4 million in 1966 by Robert Breitbard, a local football hero who played for Hoover High School and San Diego State University.

The arena opened on Nov. 17, 1966, when more than 11,000 pro hockey fans watched the San Diego Gulls, then a member of the Western Hockey League, win their season opener.

All high schools in the San Diego Unified School District will stage their graduation ceremonies in spacious Petco Park downtown under an agreement with the San Diego Padres.

Point Loma High Class of '21 to graduate at Petco Park in June

By SCOTT HOPKINS | The Beacon

The Point Loma High School class of 2021 will have one final unique experience as a result of COVID-19.

San Diego Unified School District officials have reached an agreement, subject to school board approval, with the San Diego Padres to allow all of the district's 22 high schools to hold graduation ceremonies at Petco Park.

The Class of 2021 will be the 96th to graduate from PLHS and the spaciousness of Petco Park should allow much greater attendance while still complying with social distancing mandates. It is also hoped San Diego County will move into a less restrictive category by mid-June.

Principal Kelly Lowry expected board approval earlier this week and expressed excitement about the plans. He said seniors and their families will be notified of the exact date and time of their ceremony as soon as final plans have been made.

"I am thrilled we have found a way to bring all of our seniors

together again for our 2021 graduation ceremony," Lowry said.

Plans are said to include a stage on the baseball field's infield.

This news should come as a relief for Pointer administrators because the school's Pete Ross Stadium, where commencement ceremonies are traditionally held, will be under construction in another phase of the whole site improvement plan. Already completed are two new classroom buildings, upgrades to all other classrooms, modernization of the school's gym, communication, computer, and infrastructure systems.

Upcoming PLHS stadium upgrades will include bleachers for 500 visiting spectators on the north side of the field with a new concession and restroom building.

On the home (south) side of the field, a press box will be constructed with elevator access. Also, an unstable retaining wall on the east end of the stadium will be rebuilt and damage to the school's track from support braces for the wall will be repaired.

All San Diegans 50 and older can now get COVID-19 vaccine

By JOSÉ A. ÁLVAREZ | The Beacon

More San Diegans will be able to get vaccinated against COVID-19 now that the state and the County have expanded eligibility to include all people between 50 and 64 years of age, the first group in Phase 2.

While more people now qualify for the COVID-19 vaccine, health officials are urging San Diegans to be patient since there is still a shortage of doses.

“We know some San Diegans are anxious to get vaccinated, but we’re asking people to be patient,” said Wilma Wooten, M.D., M.P.H., County public health officer. “As we get more vaccines, it will be easier to make an appointment and get vaccinated.”

Hodad’s surfboard deck rides the wave of outdoor dining

By DAVE SCHWAB | The Beacon

Leave it to Hodad’s to do something really unorthodox – and stylish – with its outdoor dining enclosure on Newport Avenue.

The 52-year-old Ocean Beach eatery, nationally known for its tasty, juicy burgers and beach vibe, has used a familiar theme in decorating its outdoor dining space: surfboards. Lots of them.

Jeremy Diem, Hodad’s president/ CEO, said the eatery’s new outdoor dining space is as impressive as it is simplistic. But it took some doing.

“We built a good solid platform at first, but we didn’t know how long it was going to last because of the 60-mph winds we were getting pummeled with at the time,” said the restaurant’s manager about the outdoor enclosure that’s been open several weeks.

“We wanted to build something more permanent with a more solid foundation base that was better and more secure and not slanted.”

Then the concept for making Hodad’s outdoor enclosure truly representative of OB became clear.

“I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be cool if we just had surfboards going around the whole side?’” asked Diem.

Enter Coconut Peet’s Surfboard Repair and Trading Co. at 4103 Voltaire St. Diem got a positive response from Coconut when he approached them about helping

Coconut Peet’s Surfboard Repair and Trading Co. hooked up Hodad’s with the surfboards needed for the outdoor dining deck.

DAVE SCHWAB/PENINSULA BEACON

Hodad’s put their signature stamp on their outdoor dining enclosure. “They said, ‘Come on down, we have a whole wall of surf boards you can have,” he said. “They hooked us up. So it was someone else who helped us put the bar up on our design. So we said, ‘Let’s go ahead and do this.’”

Of the finished product, Diem noted, “It came out really good,” while pointing out, “It really

looks cool at nighttime as we put out some hanging teardrop lights for it.”

Diem’s noticed recently there’s been a sea change in the social “climate” recently with the revitalization of spring and business beginning to bounce back as COVID vaccines become more widely distributed.

“The volume of customers has shifted so much, and we’re so busy, that it’s hard to find people

to work,” Diem said about the 1,500-square-foot Hodad’s restaurant, which is now open for indoor dining on a limited basis.

Hodad’s name is derived from the 1950s beach term for surfer wannabes who were into cars, music and counterculture style.

The restaurant started in 1969 by Byron and Virginia Hardin, who purchased both the business and its name. Hodad’s was initially on the beach at the end of Santa

Distributions will be at Pechanga Arena San Diego, 3500 Sports Arena Blvd., on Thursday, May 1, from 10 a.m. to noon. The largescale distributions can serve up to 1,400 people. Volunteers place approximately 50 pounds of food in the trunk of attendees’ cars as they drive through, making large parking lots the ideal place to hold these events. Since February 2021, the organization has held

eight of these types of distributions throughout the county and given food to over 20,000 people.

Volunteers are needed for all distributions. For those who would like to support Feeding San Diego’s work during this critical time, they can give online.

Monica Avenue.

In 1991, after several moves, Hodad’s opened on Newport Avenue where it is today. Mike “Bossman” Hardin, the unofficial mayor and “burgermeister” of Ocean Beach, died Feb. 5, 2015.

Since Bossman’s death, the company has observed a customer appreciation day at the end of every summer. Mike Hardin’s son, and Hodad’s third-generation restaurateur, Shane Hardin, now runs the family-owned and operated restaurant-microbrewery business.

The eatery’s ambiance is eclectic. License plates from all over the planet dot the walls. There are also historic pictures; lots of beach memorabilia and picnic tables with surfboard-shaped seats.

A giant menu board over the customer counter proclaims “99 Gazillion sold.” The Hodadmobile, a mini-bus entirely plastered over with stickers from stem to stern, usually can be found parked outside next to the restaurant.

Though Hodad’s outdoor surfboard deck is built to last, circumstances undoubtedly will determine how long it remains up.

“I love it and I wish we could make a portion of Newport Avenue south of Bacon or Cable streets into a little promenade with al fresco dining, where people can walk around with no cars. Maybe we can keep the outdoor dining open until the end of 2021. But I guarantee, the City is going to want their parking back.”

Law Enforcement to report rabbits running loose near a home in the Fairmont Park area. When officers arrived on March 6, they witnessed more than 20 rabbits kept in a backyard enclosure, without proper access to food, water or clean living spaces. Officers noticed some of the rabbits appeared ill with minor injuries, had red eyes and missing patches of fur. The owners agreed to relinquish the rabbits to SDHS, as they were not able to properly care for them. Veterinarians at SDHS’s Pilar & Chuck Bahde Center for Shelter Medicine treated the rabbits for minor fight wounds, issues related to poor husbandry and upper respiratory disease.

BUSINESS Starfish Filipino Eatery proves popular in Ocean Beach A new cuisine with Spanish and Asian influences has hit the scene in Ocean Beach.

Freshly minted restaurateur Anna Santos Hamilton opened Starfish Filipino Eatery at 1830 Sunset Cliffs Blvd. a month ago in the space formerly inhabited for many years by Pepe’s Italian.

Santos Hamilton is on a mission to introduce beach residents to Philippine cuisine, which she noted is an amalgam of tastes and spices from the 7,000-plus islands of the Philippines' archipelago and other Asian nations, as well

• Places of Worship: 50% capacity indoor activities.

• Bars with no food service: Open outdoors with modifications.

• All retail: No capacity limits.

Many other restrictions will end April 15. You can see a complete list here. Also, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced that if current trends continue, the tier system California has been using will disappear June 15, allowing for the complete reopening of the state’s economy.

B o a r d E x p a nd s R e nt a l Assistance, Great Plates Programs The County Board of Supervisors today acted after receiving its bi-weekly COVID-19 update to help people who have been negatively impacted by the pandemic. The actions include: • Establish appropriations of $107 million for implementation of the Emergency Rental Assistance Program, which helps eligible households in qualifying areas who have been financially impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

• Establish appropriations of $80 million for the Great Plates Delivered program, which delivers meals to older adults and people with disabilities who meet eligibility criteria.

• Accept $124 million in funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, directed through the state, to expand the County public health laboratory’s

“Before I even thought of this crazy idea of starting a restaurant, I’d been thinking, ‘Why do I have to go to National City or Mira Mesa to get Filipino food?” asked Santos Hamilton. “So I ended up cooking it myself.”

Santos Hamilton had been doing catering for private clients, before opting to become a full-on restaurateur. “I found this place and it was perfect,” she said of her new storefront. “So I just said, “I’m going to do Philippine cuisine. And here I am.”

She completely remodeled the capacity.

Vaccination Progress: • More than 2.06 million COVID-19 vaccine doses have been delivered to the region, and nearly 1.87 million have been logged as administered. This number includes both County residents and those who work in San Diego County.

• Of those vaccinated to date, nearly 616,000 County residents, or 22.9% of San Diegans 16 and older, are fully immunized.

• Overall, almost 1.05 million County residents have received at least one shot of the two-dose vaccine. That’s 39% of those eligible.

• Those receiving the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine are being added to the total of fully vaccinated San Diegans.

• The difference between doses delivered and those used in a vaccination represents approximately what is expected to be administered in the next seven days and doses still to be entered in the record system.

old Pepe’s giving it a fresh look and feel. “It’s like a more modernized Manilla,” Santos Hamilton said.

“The décor is Eurasian style, like being somewhere in a cosmopolitan hotel or restaurant. This is what you’re going to see.”

Philippine delights on the menu of Starfish include pancit (noodles), adobo (raw food in marinade), lumpia (pork, beef and carrot rolls), island garlic prawns, Dulce de Leche cheesecake, silog (Filipino breakfast), sabaw (soups), matamis (sweets/desserts) and vegan dishes.

Most of the daily menu items are made from scratch.

“Lumpia is my in-house special recipe, and it goes as fast as we can make them,” said Santos Hamilton adding, “I learned how to make many of my dishes from my grandmother years ago.”

Added Santos Hamilton, “I want my menu items to change seasonally. I don’t want the menu to be static. I want it to be more organic and flowing through the seasons.”

Born and raised in the Philippines, Santos Hamilton moved to the States in the San Francisco Bay area with her family at age 16. She previously lived in Ocean Beach on Niagara

That makes my heart full.”

Concluded Santos Hamilton of the impact she wants to make, “I really want to showcase the cuisine because nobody really showcases it the way I want to. I want it to be more accessible to everyone, not just Filipinos.”

Port of San Diego advances new clean air, environmental initiatives The Port of San Diego is making significant moves to advance new clean air and environmental justice strategies. During a recent meeting, the Board of Port Commissioners approved a resolution to support development of the County of San Diego’s Regional Carbon Sustainability Plan, approved a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with The San Diego Foundation focused on climate and coastal resiliency efforts, and received an update from staff on development of the Port’s Maritime Clean Air Strategy (MCAS) to identify and prioritize projects to further reduce

emissions and improve air quality on and around San Diego Bay. “The Port is committed to being a leader in cleaner air for our communities. At the start of the year, I made it clear that air quality and climate change issues will be important drivers in any effort, project or major deal we pursue and support over the next decade,” said chairman Michael Zucchet, Port of San Diego Board of Port Commissioners. “Supporting these initiatives are prime examples of how the Port continues to make progress by collaborating with regional partners to deploy new strategies and technologies.”

The Port has long collaborated with its member cities, the County of San Diego, academia, and others throughout the region to advance climate adaptation initiatives.

These latest efforts are in addition to the Port’s Climate Action Plan, Port Master Plan Update, and others that establish goals and strategies for reducing the Port’s environmental impacts.

MARITIME CLEAN AIR STRATEGY As an extension of the Port’s Climate Action Plan, the Maritime Clean Air Strategy (MCAS) will identify and prioritize projects to further reduce emissions and improve air quality. The MCAS is community-focused with bi-monthly meetings for the exchange of knowledge, ideas, and goal setting. The MCAS is also intended to help clarify the role the Port can play in supporting the Port’s maritime tenants and terminal operators with transitioning to zero and near-zero technologies.

Recent maritime efforts include the demonstration of electric trucks and cargo handling equipment at both of the Port’s terminals, shore power at cruise and cargo terminals, and a designated truck route to keep commercial trucks out of Barrio Logan neighborhoods. The MCAS and the AB 617 Community Emission Reduction Program are complementary efforts, and each informs and supports one another. Port staff anticipates presenting a final draft of the MCAS for the Board’s consideration in the spring.

REGIONAL CARBON SUSTAINABILITY PLAN On Jan. 27, the San Diego County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to develop a framework to reach net-zero carbon emissions by 2035, ten years before the State of California’s carbon neutrality goal. The Regional Carbon Sustainability Plan is the first of its kind for the region and will be developed in partnership with the University of California, San Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy.

The Port is one of many agencies

in the region set to collaborate and support the plan that could make San Diego the largest county in the U.S. to commit to achieving such a goal by 2035. As a stakeholder, Port staff will contribute by providing information on sources of emissions that are unique to the Port such as goods movement vessels, vehicles and equipment.

“The Port’s contributions to the development of the Regional Carbon Sustainability Plan will be essential as there are important industries that only exist on the San Diego bayfront,” said vice chair Nora Vargas, San Diego County Board of Supervisors, who crafted the plan along with Supervisor Terra Lawson-Remer and whose district includes much of the San Diego Bay waterfront.

“This policy, developed in collaboration with the Port and other agencies, will incorporate strategies tailored to the region to achieve zero carbon in key sectors including energy, transportation, and land use. These strategies will help to reduce the burden on low-income communities, especially communities of color, while also providing good-paying jobs building the infrastructure that will propel the region into the future.”

In addition to reducing GHG emissions, the plan will have co-benefits to public health and quality of life in the region, which complement the Port’s planning initiatives and climate goals.

PORT INVITES PUBLIC TO REVIEW AND PROVIDE FEEDBACK As an environmental champion of San Diego Bay and the surrounding waterfront, the Port of San Diego is developing a Maritime Clean Air Strategy (MCAS) as part of continued efforts to identify projects that will improve air quality as well as reduce greenhouse gas emissions while continuing to transition to more efficient, modern, and sustainable maritime operations. Now, the Port is seeking additional community and stakeholder feedback.

To learn more about the MCAS and to review the Discussion Draft, go to portofsandiego.org/MCAS. Written community feedback will be accepted via email to MCAS@portofsandiego. org through Tuesday, April 20. In addition, the public may suggest an aspirational vision statement to include in the final document.

MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING The Port and The San Diego Foundation have entered into a memorandum of understanding to advance a collaborative partnership to explore opportunities for program alignment and investment to support coastal access, climate initiatives and coastal resiliency, environmental conservation and stewardship, environmental justice, and a thriving, sustainable waterfront.

“As regional leaders, the Port of San Diego and The San Diego Foundation embrace our commitment to improving quality of life in our communities,” shared Mark Stuart, president and CEO of The Foundation. “San Diegans will benefit from our new partnership with equitable access to and enjoyment of a safe, healthy, resilient coastal environment.”

The San Diego Foundation has been an active participant on the Port’s Environmental Advisory Committee since its inception in 2006. In addition, the Port and The Foundation have long worked together to improve quality of life in the region and provide public benefits through various projects including the creation of Ruocco Park, the San Diego-Coronado Bay Bridge Lighting project, the Port with No Borders Scholarship Fund, and a climate initiative called “San Diego, 2050 is Calling.”

Ocean Beach man ordered to stand trial in matricide case

By NEAL PUTNAM | The Beacon

An Ocean Beach man was ordered on March 26 to stand trial for killing his mother with the special circumstances of murder during torture and murder during a robbery.

The two-day preliminary hearing resulted in Daniel Chase McKibben, 39, being held to answer for the May 1, 2019, slaying of Heidi Green, 59.

If McKibben is convicted of first-degree murder with the special circumstance charges, he would face either the death penalty

or life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Deputy District Attorney Kristie Nikoletich told San Diego Superior Court Judge Theordore Weathers the torture charge is based on the victim being stabbed 45 times in the face, neck, and head. She said one stab wound punctured the brain.

“The defendant is very angry with his mother,” said Nikoletich, adding the stabbings were done “for the purpose of revenge.”

“He had everything handed to him,” said Nikoletich, adding that his mother helped him in paying

for his truck and allowed him to live in an Ocean Beach condominium she owned.

McKibben’s attorney, Damian Lowe, disputed that he robbed his mother. “He didn’t need anything more,” said Lowe, adding that she paid off his credit cards, and truck payments.

“This is a very sad and tragic case,” said Lowe. “No one ever said he stole from them.”

The first witness was the defendant’s brother, Adam McKibben, who drove down to San Diego after not hearing from his mother. He testified he talked with his brother,

who claimed he didn’t know where she was.

Adam McKibben said his brother “took off running” when he showed up at a home in the 5000 block of Niagara Avenue and opened the garage door.

The brother testified he found his mother’s remains in a trash can in the garage. She was wrapped in a blanket. He said he called 911.

Adam McKibben told his brother’s attorney his brother has bipolar disorder and he has had manic episodes in which he was homeless at times.

San Diego Police detective

Tracey Guaderrama testified the victim’s ring, valued at $40,000, was missing along with some earrings and a bracelet.

Guaderrama said she found a “to do list” believed written by the defendant in which he wanted to get a passport and have enough cash for travel.

Guaderrama said after Daniel McKibben fled with a friend to La Mesa, he learned from online records that he was wanted for murder. She said he altered his appearance by shaving part of his head.

Yoga outdoors more popular than ever in San Diego

By DAVE SCHWAB | The Beacon

Whether on grass, sand, or water, yoga outdoors is one of the best ways to practice and enjoy the discipline. And particularly in San Diego, where the weather permits year-round outside activity.

Just ask the yogis and their pupils.

“I have been teaching a donation-based yoga class on Sunset Cliffs on Saturdays since 2009,” said Jennifer Diamond of Jenergy Yoga, who holds classes there on weekday evenings as well as Saturday mornings. “Originally I started it as a way for my friends to be able to come to a class. Then the movement caught on and many others also began holding classes up here.”

Heather Gjerde teaches outdoors on a paved surface facing Mission Bay on Fridays and Saturdays at 10-11 a.m. at Paradise Point Resort & Spa (free to guests or $15 drop ins). She also teaches “Powerful Yoga Lunch Hour” on the grass at the end of Saratoga Avenue in Ocean Beach on Tuesdays noon-1 p.m. Her schedule also includes donation-based “all-levels flow yoga” there as well on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4-5 p.m.

Of her OB space, Gjerde noted, “They just leveled the sand dunes, which gives us a wonderful view of the ocean while we flow. There is plenty of space to socially distance and practice safely.”

Gjerde pointed out there are advantages – and disadvantages – to practicing yoga outside rather than indoors.

“Obviously, some things are a little harder outside,” she said.

“Outside, I prefer not to do a lot of things on knees. The beauty of a studio is sensory deprivation. But for people now looking for yoga, outdoors has given them their chance.”

Lack of public restroom facilities at Sunset Cliffs is one of the biggest challenges of holding yoga classes there, according to Diamond.

Jennifer Diamond, of Jenergy Yoga, leads a yoga class at Sunset Cliffs on Saturday, March 27.

“Additionally, there are now so many people doing it that a few of us keep it organized on groups on Facebook so that we don’t have time and space conflicts.

“We all try to be a community and support each other in teaching these special classes. We also support our students, our community, in having classes they can attend outside in nature with this glorious ocean view,” Diamond added.

“I just love outdoors and nature,” said longtime yoga and meditation instructor Corie Bordieri-Seibert, who teaches weekdays at Kate Sessions Park. “I much prefer to be outside than inside.”

“You’re in a less perhaps intimidating space because you can leave and you can come, whereas when you’re in a studio with a closed door, you’re stuck there,” noted Susan Harris, who teaches weekly meet-up morning yoga classes at Mission Beach.

Yoga is a group of physical, mental and spiritual practices or disciplines that originated in ancient India as far back as 3,000 years BCE. Outside India, it has developed into a posture-based physical fitness, stress-relief, and relaxation

technique.

Yoga has eight “limbs,” or facets.

They are union, integration; external disciplines; internal disciplines; posture; breath control; withdrawal of senses; concentration; and meditative absorption.

Why do yoga outside?

“For me, nature helps me meditate,” answered Angel Franquez, a surf instructor and a student of Gjerde’s. “Yoga, naturally, helps me ground more, open up more.

It helps me relax as I’m trying to do certain poses because they’re a little more challenging.”

The yogis all teach the discipline a bit differently outdoors.

“Outside you have limited time frames,” explained Gjerde.

“Outdoors we want to spread out to socially distance and simplify.

I like to vary the routine, focus on strength one time, balance the next, breathing or stretching other times.”

“When you’re outside you’re working with the elements,” pointed out Harris. “You’re learning how to partner with the elements and silence your mind from the distractions (sounds, passersby, etc.). It’s a little more inviting to

THOMAS MELVILLE/PENINSULA BEACON

go inward and just be in your own space.”

“I like to be more heart- and mind-centered with yoga,” said Bordieri-Seibert, noting participants have to wear hats and sunscreen protection outdoors. “At first I was a boot-camp teacher. But my classes have mellowed. Yoga should be accessible to everyone.

There is no room in my classes for egos. This is not a competition.

This is a gift of health and well being to yourself.”

There are newer and more innovative ways to do yoga outdoors these days, like on a stand-up paddleboard.

“The SUPs are extra big and wider than a surfboard and have anchors in the sand so they aren’t moving,” said Gjerde, noting SUP yoga is offered at Paradise Point and in Mission Bay. “You have to adapt your (teaching) style on a board. You typically practice closer to the board, on your hands and knees, and lower to the water.”

Instructor Nicole Turner teaches SUP yoga for hotel guests and locals every Sunday from 10:30 a.m.-noon at Paradise Point, with more classes to be added in spring

and summer.

“With major physical, mental, and emotional benefits, SUP yoga can enhance any other exercise or sport you play or take your land yoga practice to the next level,” said Turner. “SUP Yoga is also a great activity for a group of people and can be a true bonding experience.”

Bordieri-Seibert employs crystal quartz singing bowls in her yoga classes.

“I like to add little tidbits of the philosophy,” she said. “These bowls are the superhighway to meditation. Just listen and open your heart and mind, and you will get into a state of meditation. They’re a great tool. I do these after the workout when everyone is relaxing lying on their backs.”

Outdoor yoga, to teacher Harris, is not so much a trend as an alternative to more standard, indoors instruction.

“It’s just a different option to be in a different type of space,” she said, adding it’s helped broaden her teaching skills. “I have to practice using my voice (talking over the background ocean). It helps you become a different kind of teacher, because right now you can’t be hands-on.”

The best part of outdoor yoga, according to Gjerde, is that it’s a way during the pandemic to promote and foster togetherness.

“What I love about yoga is it is bringing people together in community, which is something we’re all craving right now,” she said. “It gives you a dedicated time to show up and see some like-minded people who have similar values, and are coming together looking for that community.”

The Rosin Box Project moves into Arts District Liberty Station

Modern ballet has found a new home in Liberty Station.

The Rosin Box Project, San Diego’s innovative contemporary ballet company, recently set up shop at the Dorothea Laub Dance Place, 2650 Truxton Road, in Arts District Liberty Station. The company moved into the Point Loma facility on March 1.

“We are a small company, about nine dancers,” said Carly Topazio, artistic director/founder of nonprofit The Rosin Box Project. “This is the very first place that we can call ours. Before we never had a specific studio to ourselves. Our new studio is a really incredible environment. So many other dance companies, schools, and organizations are also in this very same

building. It’s just an incredible location with everything that goes on in the Arts District.”

The Rosin Box Project’s mission is to elevate and enrich the arts in San Diego and beyond through uniquely curated contemporary ballet and dance performances from established and emerging world-class artists. The project aims to encourage artistic growth and exploration by creating a platform in which professional artists can collaborate and amplify their voices, permitting audiences new access to the transformative power of dance.

Topazio pointed out The Rosin Box Project uses the Laub Dance Place for rehearsals. Her ballet troop usually performs downtown at the Tenth Avenue Arts Center at 930 10th Ave.

Upcoming performances of The Rosin Box Project are July 9-10, most likely at Liberty Station, and Aug. 19 -22 at Tenth Avenue Arts Center downtown.

Both performances are also being offered virtually. More information about upcoming performances are at therosinboxproject.com.

Of Rosin Box’s style, Topazio said, “What we do is more contemporary, breaking the mold of traditional classical ballet, which is kind of the foundation for all dance forms including modern dance, jazz, and hip-hop. “ Added Topazio: “Because classical ballet can be somewhat intimidating, our shows are in small theaters that are more intimate.”

11 Obituary: Dottie Veal – long time employee at OB Hardware COMMUNITY

By DAVE SCHWAB | The Beacon

Long time OB Hardware employee Dottie Veal was loved and respected and will be sorely missed by all who knew her now that she is gone, having died recently following a stroke.

That was the general consensus of Obecians who shared their lives with the extremely modest woman, who never divulged her age – not even her birthday or last name – and rarely posed for photographs.

“She was an amazing person who worked an entire career as an educator then, after she ‘retired,’ began working at OB Hardware, which she proceeded to do for the next 30 years,” said OB Hardware’s current owner Michael DeEmedio. “She became a legend in town and single-handedly fixed thousands of household problems in OB with her advice to customers.”

Added DeEmedio: “She stopped working here regularly after she had a heart scare in mid-2019, but would still come into the store

every week to chat and get what she needed. We have a ‘rest in peace’ table set up for her at the front of the store that people have been signing and writing small notes on.”

Previous OB Hardware owners Carolyn and Carl Weidetz spoke highly of Dottie.

“As the owners of OB Hardware from 1981 to 2019, Dottie worked for us for over 30 years,” said the couple in a statement. “She was like family. Almost everyone in OB knew her. She was an independent, confident, self-sufficient and loving Christian woman. She truly cared about people and enjoyed helping them.”

Added the Weidetzs: “We miss her phone calls and lunch visits.

She embodied the soul of Ocean Beach and its people. The community will miss her. She was an inspiration to everyone around her and always helped them out.”

Carl Weidetz noted Dottie walked to and from work daily and during her lunch periods, guessing that was four or five miles a day. “She was always young at

92106 & 92110

heart,” he concluded, adding she was very involved with United Methodist Church.

“Dottie was a remarkable being,” recalls John Noble. “She was always so patient and listened carefully to figure out what your whatchamacallit thing was. She knew a lot. For years, I have thought that there should be a statue of Dottie somewhere around Newport Avenue. Let's make it happen.”

Of the hardware store’s favorite employee, colleague Jim Harvey noted: “Dottie was an OB treasure.

What a sweetheart and she sure did know her way around the OB Hardware store. There was never a question that she didn't have the answer to.

“My folks knew Dottie from way back and she always asked me how they were doing. I saw her walking a few weeks ago (she walked everywhere). Thankfully, I pulled over to say ‘Hi.’ She smiled that big smile and said, ‘How you doing, Jim?’ She remembered everyone's name. I'm gonna miss sweet Dottie.”

Dottie was a gem concurred Brian Checkal.

“She was as sweet as they come and had the most knowledge of old plumbing parts of anyone I have ever been around,” he said.

“She was a jewel for OB and OB Hardware.”

“I first met Dottie in the early ’90s through my husband as we were regulars through the door at OB Hardware,” said Martha Bryson. “It’s sad to hear of her passing. She will be missed. Dottie was such a wonderful soul. She had a generous spirit in many ways. She asked about the health and welfare of my distant relatives who she had an occasion to meet in the store as they sought out a part for something while in town.”

Added Bryson: “Years after meeting these family members.

Dottie still asked about them and sent her good wishes to them through me. She shared her vast knowledge of hardware in the aisles of OB Hardware as she knew the inventory and anything you’d need to know about the part.

Peninsula community all of the repair jobs that she had a direct hand in. That hand in some ways made those repairs possible. In her way, she touched the lives of many. In her way she was a fixer, a job well done. Thank you, Dottie, again and again.”

A Syracuse, N.Y.-native, Dottie studied at the New York State College for Teachers before moving to San Diego in 1957. For 30 years she was a special education, elder education, and girls physical education teacher. She earned a master’s degree in general education and administration from San Diego State University.

Upon retiring, Dottie grew bored and eventually approached OB Hardware about a job, and reportedly started working that same day. Being proficient at everything she did, Dottie made keys, cut glass, found products, and counseled customers on a daily basis. She said her familiarity and adeptness with tools and hardware came from her father, who was a toolmaker and grinder during the Great Depression.

Pointer baseball players winning, supporting each other

BY SCOTT HOPKINS | The Beacon

High hopes for the Point Loma High School baseball program are turning into realities as players support each other while continuing to earn respect in early tournament play.

The Pointers' roster boasts several D-I college or professional prospects and, combined with a talented group of teammates, is raising eyebrows in the San Diego CIF section.

National prep sports website MaxPreps has the Pointers ranked ninth in San Diego and Imperial counties and fifth in Div. I with the team posting a 5-2 record in early play.

In the just-completed Lions Tournament, a spring break fixture in prep baseball for decades, the Pointers finished atop the 7A division, the second toughest in the highly regarded classic. It was the second consecutive title for the team.

A look at the team statistics shows an overall batting average of .315, about 80 points above that of recent years. And while some earlier Pointer teams did not hit a home run all season, the current roster has blasted six already, led by senior and four-year varsity player Duce Gourson (three), junior Ayden Rygiel (two), and one by senior Corbin Chianello.

A total of 52 runners have crossed the plate for the Dogs while a stingy pitching staff has yielded only 15 earned runs to date, holding opponents to a .244 batting average.

"This team is a legitimate family," said head coach Jeff Solis. "I'm very proud of them. They really care about each other, look out for each other, and want each other to succeed. Everyone is rooting for each other. It's the most cohesive team we've had since I've been here."

Highlights of each Pointer win: Pointers 2, Torrey Pines 0: Pitchers Hunter Hargett, Kien Vu, Duke Ekstrom, and Bubba Nunez combined to toss a three-hit shutout while striking out 14 in the season opener on the Falcons' field.

Jet Taylor's RBI combined with doubles by Ekstrom and Chianello led the attack. The Pointers played error-free defense.

Pointers 14, El Capitan 4: Gourson had a huge day at the plate with two home runs and six RBI's. Chianello also had a homer while 14 hits included a double and two singles by Matt Nuanez and two hits by Ekstrom. Only three strikeouts were made in 45 plate appearances by Pointer hitters. On the mound, Drew Brawner, Marco Lopez, Brevin Taft, and Jordan Otjen dogged the host Vaqueros for the win.

Pointers 11, Sage Creek 0: In their first home game, Pointer

pitchers recorded their second shutout. Hargett (one walk, six strikeouts in four innings) and Vu (three strikeouts in two innings) stymied the Bobcats. The attack was led by Gourson's third home run, Chianello (double, single, four RBI's) and Ekstrom (two singles and two RBI's). Nuanez and Nunez also had RBI's.

Pointers 14, Coronado 8: The Pointers visited Coronado and pounded 20 hits against the Islanders. Leaders were Vu (four), Diego Mansur and Lorenzo Sardo (three each), Nuanez, Ayden Rygiel, Chianello and Nunez had two each. Vu stroked two doubles and Rygiel had a double and home run for three RBI's. Other RBI leaders were Chianello (three) and Sardo (two). Brawner, Dominic Nunes, Chianello, Blake Ledbetter, and Otjen teamed up to hold the Islanders in a game that took over three hours to complete.
