Apple Tree Market makes comeback in Ocean Beach

THOUSANDS PROTEST REFUGEE BAN AT SD AIRPORT

BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON

Apple Tree Market, after a nearly four-year hiatus, is on its way back in Ocean Beach. “It's taken a year or so – too long – and we're very anxious, and excited: we're almost there,” said Saad Hirmez, owner of the independent Apple Tree Market, who expects to re-open on Newport Avenue “in late APPLE TREE February or early What: Grocery March.” store/market. Hirmez's new, smaller retail Where: 4976 Newport Ave. space of about Opening: Late 7,000 square feet February, early at 4976 Newport March. Ave. is about half the size of his previous spot at 4949 Santa Monica Ave. (a CVS since 2015). The Hirmez family had operated the Apple Tree Market grocery business on Santa Monica Avenue – ever since they took over the former Safeway in 1989 – was Ocean Beach’s only full-time grocery store until the business lost its lease. The new retail space has gone through several reincarnations over the years. It was a Bank of America building for a time.

Lights up at PLHS stadium Four 72-foot-tall light towers now installed, neighbors not happy BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON

After President Trump signed an executive order on Jan. 27 banning refugees from entering the country for 120 days and immigrants from seven predominantly Muslim nations – Iran, Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Libya, Yemen and Somalia – for three months, protests erupted at airports across the U.S. In San Diego, more than 2,000 protesters were at the airport’s Terminal 2 on Sunday, Jan. 29 PHOTO BY NOUSHIN NOURIZADEH condemning the ban and supporting refugees and immigrants.

A meeting between neighbors and the San Diego Unified School District over a lawsuit challenging the school district's decision to install stadium lights at Point Loma High School did not yield immediate results and a June trial before a judge is set. Meanwhile, the new light towers were installed last week at Pointers stadium, to the chagrin of some. Each of the four light towers is 72feet tall and is designed to project LED lights onto the playing surface with minimal spillover to nearby homes. David Dick, a Peninsual Community Planning Board member speaking on his own behalf, noted the new PLHS light towers are “72feet tall, which is 20-feet shorter than similar installations at other school sites. The reduction in height was required for the district SEE LIGHTS, Page 20

Point Loma High School students in Anthony Palmiotto's Cinematic Art Program were upset about the results of the November election. So they did something about it. Led by sophomore Melissa Deorsola, a Latina whose family is from Brazil, a group of half a dozen students did a 90-second public service announcement asking President Trump to apologize to minorities he offended during his presidential campaign. The cleverly crafted and edited spot is interspersed with video clips of Trump from his controversial campaign. It includes comments from students representing different minorities at Point Loma High. Pointing out she took a “mental health day” after the Nov. 8 election, Deorsola said she was inspired by a previous PSA done by Palmiotto's students decrying SeaWorld orca shows. The popular marine park, responding to public pressure, has since abandoned orca shows in favor of exhibiting the marine mammals in a more educational format. “I thought it (video) would be really big for us,” Deorsola said. “Hopefully, it will get more people to realize kids are actually paying attention to the news, listening and getting involved. I wanted to get that out.” Palmiotto said students doing PSAs is nothing new in his classes. “Last year, we had a kid in my

class from Chicago who made a video about putting guns down,” he said, noting, “I'm not saying activism is what the class is about. But we do make public service announcements.” The cinema instructor praised the Deorsola-directed spot. “Her video is as good as anything Hillary or Trump's camp put out,” he said. Palmiotto added he would also have no problem with a student doing a pro-Trump PSA. “I would say OK as long as it was professionally done,” he said. Other cinema students participating in the video calling out Trump spoke their minds about why they got involved in the video project. “Melissa contacted me and expressed her vision, and I thought it was a great idea,” said senior Brandon Rodriguez. “It was a way to express my voice as an active citizen of America … we wanted to do it in a peaceful manner. I wanted to participate, not for rebellion, but as a means of getting my voice heard.” Thristian Wilson, a senior who is a full-blooded Native American from the Navajo nation in Arizona, said he wanted to use the opportunity SEE VIDEO, Page 6

Ocean Beach MainStreet Association honors local businesses at annual awards dinner The Ocean Beach MainStreet Association honored members for their contributions to the Ocean Beach community at its annual awards celebration on Thursday, Jan. 26. "Our annual awards ceremony is a great occasion to reflect on the past year in Ocean Beach and celebrate the accomplishments of our hard-working merchants, who continuously give back to the community," said Denny Knox, executive director of OBMA. The program highlighted events and accomplishments over the past year with a slideshow. Each year the OBMA committees award individuals and businesses for their contributions to public improvements, public safety, design, promotion, revitalization and expansion within the community. The OBMA members voted on a People’s Choice winner in each category while the Customer Service Business of the Year was chosen by the public through online voting. Forty-five businesses/individuals were recognized for their contributions at the event; of those, the following received the People’s Choice for their categories:

What is a Children's Trust and how does it work?

The law in our state permits an 18 year old to own property and receive an inheritance. If you die without a Trust and your children are 18 or older, then they will receive your home and financial assets immediately, (after probate which takes about a year.)

Answer:

In order to prevent your children from being overwhelmed or Virginia Weber Laskowitz & spending all your assets when you die, you need to plan. This Shannon T. O’Neill plan includes naming a responsible person as Trustee to take care of the funds and property. A Living Trust will include a Children's Trust that will spell out at what ages your children get funds and access to their inheritance. For example, the expenses for education and medical care will be paid by the trustee directly and the rest of the funds will be held in the Trust. At age 21, they will receive 1/2 of their trust and at 25 they can receive the balance of the funds and property. The ages and amount of distribution can be modified. You can include a Children's Trust in a Will, but then you will have to go through probate and will spend about 5% of the assets for expenses and costs. Want to avoid probate, give us a call.

NEWS FAA disputes increase in noise from SD Airport departures BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON

A growing perception by some coastal residents from Point Loma to La Jolla that they are hearing more noise from commercial airplanes was disputed by a Federal Aviation Administration official at a Jan. 18 Airport Noise Advisory Committee subcommittee meeting in Liberty Station. At that meeting, which was to assess historical versus current San Diego International Airport arrivals and departures, the conversation turned instead to spreading noise complaints from residents in Mission and Pacific beaches, as well as La Jolla Shores and Bird Rock. Some longterm residents are insisting they're hearing loud airplane noises in areas where they never have before. FAA air traffic manager Barry Davis gave a slideshow presentation Jan. 18 discussing new noise complaints that have been filed throughout the region. He explained the federal agency's take on those complaints. “We tracked data from different targeted neighborhoods that have been causing anxiety in the communities,” said Davis, who concluded the lion's share of new noise complaints were attributable to “low-flying general avi-

ation aircraft largely from Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport in Kearny Mesa, and from helicopters.” Noting perceived airplane noise can be greatly affected by weather conditions, including overcast skies that tend to magnify sound, Davis went neighborhood by neighborhood, showing graphs of new noise complaints. Concerning the majority of new noise complaints, Davis said the FAA determined that “88 percent of those were attributed to general aviation (private) aircraft and helicopters,” adding “Montgomery Field is the culprit.” Davis conceded, however, that “the [FAA] still has some work to do.” Responding to Davis' remarks, airport watchdog Casey Schnoor, representing Point Loma on the ANAC subcommittee, argued, “New noise complaints are not a valid benchmark. A lot of people are still experiencing noise problems. They're just not reporting them.”

COMMUNITY High Tech High holds ‘Soap for Hope’ fundraiser Students in High Tech High Media Arts in Liberty Station want to use proceeds from a nonprofit, studentrun soap company to fund a fourday trip across California to visit eight different colleges. “In the past, the (soap) company’s profits have sent kids to college on scholarships and even helped a student’s family whose apartment burned down,” said Jasmyn Meyer, a High Tech High junior. Previously, Meyer noted her school funded the four-day trip across the state to visit colleges. “But this year, the trip is no longer free,” said Meyer. “At my high school, more than half of the students qualify as economically disadvantaged.” Meyer noted the student soap company “could be the ticket to revive our hopes for college.” She added, “You have to see the faces of determination and passion at our 'Soap For Hope' fundraiser,” details of which are forthcoming.

Deorsola's video offered “to speak out for my indigenous people. “There's still a problem with Native Americans being stereotyped,” Wilson said, adding indigenous people continue to suffer disproportionately from “drugs, gangs, violence and suicidal depression,” along with homelessness and substandard housing conditions. “We're still getting stereotyped every day,” Wilson said. “Nobody seems to see that.” Davon Lacy, a senior who is African-American, said he participated in the Trump video because, “I needed to voice my opinion. This was my chance to really speak out. Everybody needs to look at it (video) and understand where we're coming from.” Asked what upset her about President Trump's comments, Deorsola said, “A lot of his stances are often used to create fear in people.” Citing one example, Deorsola noted, “He wants to have all Muslims register. That only leads to more segregation, and it's really taking a step back. I just think a lot of his policies are used to separate people that are different than him, that he doesn't understand. That is not what America stands for.” Deorsola added she tried to get a Muslim student to participate in her PSA, but they respectfully declined out of fear of potential reprisals.

Peninsula planners discuss building height limits BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON

In January, the Peninsula Community Planning Board grappled with the vexing issue of the city's 30foot building height limit, with a city official explaining to testy residents why it's been so difficult to amend municipal height regulations. Robert Vacchi, a Point Loma resident who leads the city's Development Services Department, discussed city rules governing building heights. A case in point, cited by Vacchi, is the controversial multi-story development on Emerson and Evergreen

in Roseville, which many residents believed exceeded the 30-foot height limit. Many residents have complained that the city's municipal code is now too loosely defined governing how – and where – a building's height limit is measured. Vacchi said it was more difficult to make changes to height limits in this case, because the 30-foot height limit was passed by voters with Proposition D, rather than being an action taken by the San Diego City Council. “It was difficult to find a solution, in part because the law is written, not like a (city) ordinance, where

you can go back in and fix it through words,” Vacchi said, noting it was an act passed instead by voters, which he added is tougher to change. “A (voter-passed) proposition takes precedent over anything the City Council does,” Vacchi said adding, “With existing projects in the pipeline, what California case law says is that, once the city has issued a building permit – you can't change the rules on them.” An audience member called Vacchi out, alleging the city was not being entirely truthful in its stance on height limits.

“I really find a high level of audacity for you to address this crowd and present us with this convoluted logic that has allowed out-of-character structures to be approved in this community,” said the resident. “This has been a deception, and these regulations are for financial gain.” “Nothing can be changed once the stakes are in the ground,” replied Vacchi. “This is a hot-button issue in this community, and you're telling us the proposition gives us no wiggle room on it,” pointed out Peninsula Planning Board member Jim Hare. Hare characterized recent height-limit

I just want to say, 'I appreciate you being here to work through this with us.’” “We were led to believe the city was going to have a moratorium on (questionable) projects,” said board member Julia Quinn. “We had no direction from the City Council to have a moratorium on any building permits,” responded Vacchi. “The [city] recommended going through zoning changes and reducing the amount of collateral damage in the process, and we succeeded in that.” PCPB meets the third Thursday of the month from 6:30 to 9 p.m. in the community room at Point Loma/Hervey Branch Library at 3701 Voltaire St.

Bridging the gap between military, civilian communities The San Diego Public Library, in collaboration with local nonprofit So Say We All, will host an evening of readings and discussion aimed at helping bridge the gap between military and civilian communities. Crossing the Military-Civilian Divide: Stories and Conversation will run from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 15, at the Point Loma/Hervey Branch Library.

MAKING SOME MOVES – MAN ON A MISSION – NO TIME TO WASTE – TRYING TO MAKE THE MOST OF LIFE

FEBRUARY 4TH PREMIER AT KEN CINEMA

Although he has over 12.5 million in listings for Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage, and is trying to change the face of Loma Portal, he has a radio show on Saturdays and Sundays talking about sports, horse racing and life. He is starring in 2 television pilots and has a movie coming out this weekend. “66 and Nowhere” is a movie where Anthony “The Capitan”Theodore plays a Chicago mobster and is chasing a guy across the country along Route 66 that owes the mob money. Recently Anthony has been working with land owners along the Lytton / Barnett Corridor , trying to re-zone that area to 800 sq ft per unit, bring investors who would like to work with land owners on joint ventures to re-gentrify the area. With approval from the City of San Diego Planning Department and a unanimous contingent vote of 9-0 from The Midway Planning Board, it looks like this area is in for a MAJOR UPGRADE. “This whole area is in need of new units, especially with the whole Liberty Station complex bringing in new business to the area and the condition of the neighborhood. The whole area needs a facelift. Considering the situation in regards to the Post Office the BID will be changing the zoning in the area in December of 2017, and is already bringing investors to the table, because now the numbers add up. “ Another project Anthony is seeking permission, is to put in is senior housing across from the entrance of Liberty Station on Lytton. “You could not have a better place for seniors to live with all that Liberty Station has to offer … what a great place for a walk and some people watching.” This Saturday at The landmark Ken Cinema at 1PM, the world premiere or “66 & Nowhere” will be shown. In the movie Anthony plays “Johnny Gaglione”, a Chicago mobster that is ruthless with a soft spot for good food. “when I got a call from the Executive Producer Chad Boyer saying that he had a part for me in this movie, I told him that it would be no problem. It was only going to be 2 days tops, but is turned out to be a much bigger role, as a matter of fact, the sequels working title is called “The Gaglione Brothers hit Hollywood” to begin shooting in the fall of 2017. He is also starring in a pilot called “Roll The Dice”, “I met this guy when I was at an open house in Olivehain, come to find out he is a director and is also doing a pilot called “Shooters” well one thing led to another and I told him about Tommy and I doing a radio show on the weekends, so he came out to Del Mar racetrack to shoot some test footage and that turned into Roll the Dice.... it's about two radio show hosts who are looking to make their next big score. Along with good friend Saratoga Tommy Dellerba, who is a jockey agent, Theodore has come aboard as Senior Advisor to help the career of Jockey Luis Medina. "Luis has had some tough times, everybody does... but it's how you come back is the difference... We have his mindset on point now and the Luis' future is ahead of him, you learn from the past, and try and not make the same mistakes in the future. I'm just here to keep his head straight. Looking forward to the future, does Theodore see things slowing down..."

SPORTS 9 Folsom named All-CIF First Team for Pointers football THURSDAY Âˇ FEBRUARY 2, 2017

THE PENINSULA BEACON

PLHS football hands out awards at annual banquet BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON

Point Loma's Pointer football team wrapped up its recent season with an awards banquet held at Tom Ham's Lighthouse restaurant on Harbor Island. The team just completed its first season in the revamped Western League, a league some feel is the toughest in the entire state. Of five league teams, two went on to capture state championships (Madison and Cathedral). Another league member was perennially-tough St. Augustine, while Mira Mesa was the unfortunate fifth member and represented the only league victory for the Pointers, who thrashed the Marauders, spoiling their homecoming in a 45-14 blowout. Overall, the Pointers finished 57, with highlight victories against Ramona, Bonita Vista and a particularly satisfying rebound win in a CIF playoff game against an El Camino team that had defeated them in the season opener. Head coach Mike Hastings and his assistants recognized the following players:

All-Western League n First team, offense: Josh Ball, Davey Folsom. Defense: Patrick Rutledge. Kicker of the Year: Oscar Borjon. n Second team, offense: Kyle Grady, Tim Sheldon. Defense: Arthur Daniels. n Honorable mention, offense: Antonio Quintanilla, Pablo Hernandez, Alex Washington, Malik Moore. n Defense: Antonio Pelayo, JL Skinner, Michael Blakely.

Team Awards Scout team defense: Pelayo. Scout team offense: Anthony Karty. n Special teams award: Borjon. n Most Inspirational Player: Ball and Daniels. n Jimmy Howard Semper Fi Award: Folsom. n Coach Steve Horrow Memorial Award: Washington and Grady. n Bob Hammes Most Improved Academics Award: Gabe Hall. n Coach Bill Hastings Specialist Award: Nathan Weneta. n Coach Bennie Edens Award: Tim Sheldon. n n

BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON

For the first time in several decades, a Point Loma High football player, who is only a junior, has been named to the All-CIF First Team on offense. Davey Folsom, an interior lineman, stands 6-foot 4-inches tall and weighs 315 pounds. A quiet, polite person off the field, it is his brute strength that drew the attention of opposing players and coaches. "It's a major accomplishment," Folsom said, "and being the first one of this era to do it definitely means something." "It's a heck of an honor," said Pointer head coach Mike Hastings. "Making first-team as a senior is a real honor, but Davey made it as a junior," he said after the team's annual awards banquet last month. But achieving at this level didn't come easily. "I definitely worked for it," Folsom

said. "I trained constantly," he noted, "going out Saturdays and Sundays with (offensive) line coaches, working on my technique and just learning the game better." Folsom and the Pointers play in the toughest league in the county, so among opposing coaches who saw him play personally were two (Madison and Cathedral) who guided their Western League teams to state championships. Perhaps Folsom's finest moment came during a game against Madison. "On one play Davey picked up the Warhawks' Army All-America linebacker Sampson Niu (6-foot 1inch, 215 pounds) and lifted him off the ground, carrying him three yards before putting him on his backside," said Hastings. That moment, seen on video passed around to county teams, showcased Folsom's abilities and skills to a wide audience of knowl-

edgeable football people. "Coaches from Saints and Cathedral had nothing but praise for him," added Hastings. "After seeing how he played against them they knew he was a monster." And what does Folsom hope to do for an encore in his senior year? "Maybe all-state or all-American," he said. "We'll see." As might be expected, a number of big-name colleges have Folsom on their radar. Asked to list them, he casually reels them off. "A few Pac-12 schools, and I'm definitely looking into them. Schools like UCLA, Cal Berkeley, Washington State, San Diego State, Virginia and Boston College." Folsom also has commanded attention as a shot putter on the Pointer track team. "Yale, Stanford and Brown are recruiting me for shot put," Folsom added. "We hope Davey can become the

Division I (college) player we think he can become at the next level," Hastings said. "He's got one good off-season ahead of him and a great senior year to play, but the sky's really the limit for what he can accomplish moving forward," Hastings added.

Two Pointers selected for Alex Spanos All-Star Classic BY SCOTT HOPKINS | THE BEACON

Two former Point Loma High football players were selected to play in the recent Alex Spanos All-Star Classic matching top graduating seniors from the North and South regions of San Diego County. College-bound defensive back Antonio Pelayo and offensive lineman Arthur Daniels were named to the South roster. Unfortunately, Daniels re-injured his hand and was unable to play in the game. This year's game, played on Jan. 21 at Mesa College, marks the 27th year for the annual event, making it the longest-running prep all-star game in California. The game, sponsored by the former San Diego Chargers, offers players one last time to suit up and play in front of family and friends to officially close their high school careers. Uniforms feature the distinctive Charger lightning bolt stripe on their pants. Some of those playing have com-

mitted to colleges, however many, such as Pelayo and Daniels, have yet to sign. Coaching the South team this year was Joel Allen of The Bishop's School. Allen and his South squad absorbed a 48-17 beating by the North, led by Rancho Bernardo coach Tristan McCoy. The loss leaves the series tied 11-11 since the game switched to a North-South format in 1995. Pelayo, 6-foot-tall, 170 pounds, saw plenty of action during the game that often provides bragging Antonio Pelayo at the Spanos All-Star Classic with mother Angelina Tomasello. rights to the victor.

Seniors Seniors ending their Pointer careers were honored, including Pelayo, Borjon, Daniels, Washington, Hall, Sheldon, Antonio Quintanilla, William Price, Ramon Valdez, Austin Waterhouse, Pablo Hernandez, Patrick Dorman, Nathan Lee, Declan Robinson and Patrick Rutledge.

Mayor, planners working on Midway homeless issues BY DAVE SCHWAB | THE BEACON

Homelessness once again dominated discussion at Midway Community Planning Group in January. The community advisory group also was updated on the latest developments with the city's ongoing update of the Midway Community Plan, the district's blueprint for development. The Midway/Pacific Highway Corridor Community is situated between Old Town and Point Loma. The community is a hodgepodge with an urbanized commercial core containing numerous shopping centers and institutional facilities. The corridor is defined by large-scale buildings and unscreened commercial parking lots mixed in with lowlying industrial buildings. There are a few multifamily residential complexes in the western portion of the district adjacent to Point Loma. Anthony George, from Mayor Kevin Faulconer's office, said the mayor in his state of the city address cited tourism, homelessness and housing affordability as three of his top issues to work on in 2017. He noted the “housing first” model for getting homeless off the streets and transitioning them into permanent

housing will be a priority in 2017. “The mayor has proposed a connective system, a central hub for the homeless where all agencies can work together, share information and resources,” George said, adding that a homeless hotline number (211), has been created for those homeless in need of temporary emergency shelter. Former MCPG board member Walter Anderson, who owns a nursery in the Midway District, posed a question, “Why can't they (police) take shopping carts that do not belong to them (homeless) away from them?” “They (police) can't confiscate the person's belongings in the cart,” answered George. San Diego Police Department Officer David Surwilo told community planners a shift change recently happened in Western Division with officer's hours and patrols being shifted around. Surwilo reiterated

that police response is “radio-call driven.” He added its doubly important for residents to call and report problems and issues, including those homeless-related. “If you see drug use going on, or trash, give us a call,” exhorted Surwilo who added that police make every effort to be humane to the homeless, including not troubling them when they congregate underneath bridges during rainy weather, like the bridge linking Midway with Old Town. James McGuirk, from Councilwoman Lorie Zapf's office, noted, while San Diego has the fourth largest homeless population in the nation, it is only 23rd in federal funding. “We would like to see a re-evaluation of the (homeless) funding,” said MCPG chair Cathy Kenton. Pointing out homelessness is rampant in Midway, especially with panhandling, MCPG board member Todd Horvath suggested it might be wise to do a public service announcement asking people “not to give to panhandlers,” but to give instead to support organizations empowered to help them. “We're frustrated with homelessness,” noted Kenton. “We keep talking about it, month in and month out, and nothing's really changing – except it's getting worse. The mayor needs to take the lead on this. I'd like to see some kind of community task force with the mayor leading it.” City planner Vickie White said real progress is being made with the ongoing Midway Community Plan update noting “we're really pushing hard for this to be done by end of calendar year 2017 (December).”

A Vet you can talk to!

The NTC Foundation recently announced the appointment of fourth-generation Point Loman Lori Fleet-Martin as the board chair. FleetMartin, who joined the board in 2010, has been active in the continued development of Arts District Liberty Station and its transformation from Navy base into an arts and culture district. Martin replaces Richard Opper, also a Point Loma resident, who will remain on the board. Fleet-Martin’s roots run deep in this community. Her great-grandfather and grandfather helped develop the Fleetridge neighborhood of Point Loma and community philanthropy has been a bedrock of her family for generations. She has been a trustee of the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center for 13 years. Additionally, she has been involved with The San Diego Foundation, MADCAPS (Mothers and Daughters Club Assisting Philanthropies), the San Diego Yacht Club Junior Board, as well as numerous committees for The Bishops School and WarrenWalker School. “I initially became involved with the foundation because it was important for me to help something in our local community be successful and thrive. I wanted to give back to the community that I was born and raised in,” Fleet-Martin said. During her tenure, Fleet-Martin spearheaded the effort to relocate the Fantasy on Ice Skating Rink to Liberty Station and founded the Friends of NTC to help build a community of people and businesses committed to the success of the not-for-profit NTC Foundation and its advancement of San Diego’s premier center for arts, culture and creativity.

Linda Mamer is one of the new members of the NTC Foundation board.

Now, Fleet-Martin says, “Liberty Station has grown into a broader community-wide asset.” She takes the helm just as the NTC Foundation heads into their 10th anniversary year. In December of 2006, the NTC Foundation celebrated the opening of the very first building in San Diego’s newest arts and culture district. In 2017, the foundation will begin a year of programs celebrating the growth from “an unprecedented opportunity” to a successful, thriving, nationally and internationallyrecognized destination. Plans include activities to honor the past, recognize those who helped us get here as well as celebrations including exciting community programming, public art installations and arts and culture activities. Joining Fleet-Martin on the board are new members, Jason Paguio and Linda Mamer. Paguio is a small business owner, nonprofit founder, and public policy advisor who lives in Chula Vista. While a music teacher, Jason founded Parade Band Foundation Inc., a nonprofit that helps to connect school music programs with their community and has awarded tensof-thousands of dollars in grants, scholarships and incentives to school

music programs. Paguio has extensive experience and a commitment to serving the community. San Diego Metropolitan Magazine awarded him one of the region’s “40 Under 40,” the San Diego Business Journal awarded him a finalist of the “Most Admired CEO” awards and winner of the “25 in their 20s,” the Chula Vista Chamber of Commerce has twice awarded him the “Pacesetter of the Year Award,” "Outstanding Business Advocate of the Year Award," the “President’s Award,” and Philippine American Business Improvement and Development awarded him the “Rising Star Award.” Mamer has more than 20 years experience in commercial and business banking. She has worked for Wells Fargo Bank and Bank of California/Union Bank and is currently a senior vice president/senior relationship manager at Bank of California in their Commercial Banking Group. She specializes in working closely with business owners to help them reach their goals by understanding their needs and brainstorming ways to overcome challenges. Mamer has experience serving her community in a variety of ways, including president of the PTA and as a Girl Scout leader. She remains active in the American Cancer Society, has completed the LEAD Influence program and supports Jewish Family Services “Ways to Work” program. Together with the rest of the 17member board, Fleet-Martin is committed to getting the community more engaged to help sustain the Arts District, moving forward on the Barracks Hotel Project and celebrating 10 years of creativity. The NTC Foundation bids a thanks and farewell to retiring board members Roger Brenes and Fran Holian (former board chair). “We are grateful to our retiring board members for their service and their vision. Their efforts have led to our continued growth and success,” said NTC Foundation CEO Lisa Johnson. “We are excited about this latest change in command,” she added. “The foundation is looking forward to more positive changes for 2017 and 2018.

The San Diego Foundation has grants available The San Diego Foundation recently announced the availability of grant funding through the Opening the Outdoors program. The 2017 grant cycle will prioritize collaborative nonprofit projects that protect and connect outdoor spaces and improve outdoor access, especially in park-poor and underserved communities. According to The San Diego Foundation Parks for Everyone report, 45 percent of San Diego County’s total land area is green space. However, many lowincome, ethnically diverse communities have limited access to

parks and open spaces. The Opening the Outdoors program serves to close this gap and ensure that San Diego youth grow up with equitable access to nature and similar, shared experiences outside. Partnerships of two or more are welcome to apply for grants ranging from $25,000 to $50,000. For more information about The San Diego Foundation Opening the Outdoors program, or to apply for one of the available grants, visit www.sdfoundation.org/OTO. Grants from the Opening the Outdoors Program are made possible from generous donors.

Point Loma native to walk 3,100 miles Hiking the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail for Outdoor Outreach Michael Hervey, a San Diego native, and Point Loma High School alumnus, leaves this April to hike 3,100 miles from Mexico to Canada, along the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail. As part of his preparations, he’s paired up with local nonprofit, Outdoor Outreach, to raise funds and awareness for their programs that help connect San Diego’s at risk youth with the transformative power of the outdoors. “I wanted to take this hike that I was planning, and use it to give back to the community somehow,” Hervey said. “I’ve used the sheer expansiveness of the trail’s distance to get attention about the work that Outdoor Outreach is doing, and the relationship has proved to be very rewarding.” The Continental Divide National Scenic Trail, or CDT, runs 3,100 miles following the spine of the Rocky Mountains. Beginning at Crazy Cook Monument on the Mexican border, hikers follow the Continental highpoint, across New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana, and finish at the Northern border with Canada. This trail is one of what long distance hikers call the “Triple Crown” of long distance hiking, with the Appalachian Trail and Pacific Crest Trail rounding out about 7,500 miles of backcountry hiking. A successful hike of any long trail is often times unreported, but the CDT remains the least popular of the “Triple Crown” trails. High altitude and remoteness make the CDT more daunting, labeling it the “expert trail” where most hikers that attempt the trek, have previously completed another major thru hike. In a given

year, roughly 300 hikers will attempt the trail in a single season. Having completed the 2,600 mile Pacific Crest Trail during the summer of 2013, Hervey has developed the right skills and the right gear for this kind of adventure. With only the essentials on his back — a tent, a sleeping bag, rain gear, a stove, a map and compass, and plenty of food — he can keep the weight light, maximizing the distance he can cover, which means that in order for Hervey to successfully hike the entire trail in a single season, he’ll be averaging 25 to 30 miles per day. “I mostly plan my trip around food resupplies, so I’ll hike four to six days at a time, and when I cross a paved road, I can hitch a ride into the nearest town for food, laundry, and shower, and then I return to the trailhead for the next leg.” Hervey plans on the hike taking about 150 days, or five months. The entire time, completely exposed to the elements. “Hiking long trails is about balancing weight and speed. But you have to be fully committed in order to see the goal through. That is where the real challenge lies.” Hervey will begin his hike midApril, to hike the entire 3,100 mile trail in a single season. In order to make this possible, he must move quick enough to beat the first snow

storms in the northern states. Along the way he will bear extreme heat, snow and ice storms, high altitudes of up to 14,200 feet, thunder and lightning, and the most breathtaking views the western United States has to offer. With a yearly schedule of afterschool and overnight programs around San Diego County, Outdoor Outreach provides kids with the necessary knowledge and equipment to experience the outdoors through a variety of recreational activities. Some of their programming includes surfing, kayaking, hiking, rock climbing, mountain biking, and environmental stewardship. “The impact that the outdoors has on all of us is indefinable, but when you meet the kids that are touched by the experience, we can suddenly put a face to that transformation,” Hervey said. In partnership with three Title I high schools and various other youth- serving organizations in San Diego, Outdoor Outreach is dedicated to using the outdoors to inspire youth to see opportunity in their lives. Beyond recreation, Outdoor Outreach’s high school leadership program helps teach practical job skills to ease the transition to adulthood. Participants in the program can be trained as outdoor educators, and can even lead after-school programming with the potential of being hired on as part of Outdoor Outreach’s staff. Recreational fluency and environmental stewardship are how Outdoor Outreach is making a change in San Diego, and they are helping to usher in the next generation of respectful outdoor users.

Seacrest At Home THE HOME CARE AGENCY DESIGNED TO MEET YOUR INDIVIDUAL NEEDS Seacrest at Home, a not for profit 501(c)(3) home care agency located in Encinitas, has received multiple community recognitions as a premier home care agency. They provide non-medical assistance to residents of San Diego County. In addition to providing assistance with personal care, meal prep, light housekeeping, errands and companionship, they also offer two new RN managed programs. The Care Management program can help coordinate your loved one’s appointments, social activities and assist with community outreach. Their new C.A.R.E. program can provide hospital ER companionship within 1 hour, thereby providing peace of mind to family members that their loved one is not alone. Kelli Denton R.N., is the director and

has more than 35 years of nursing experience that includes oncology, infusion therapy, home health and home care. Denton explains that all caregivers are live-scanned fingerprinted, have extensive background checks through the Ca. DOJ (Dept. of Justice) and FBI on a national level. All employees are also bonded and covered with worker’s comp. Effective 6.1.16, all home care agencies were required to be licensed with Ca.’s Dept. of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division and are subject to un-announced state surveys, which Denton welcomes. “Licensure keeps us on top of our game and will weed out those agencies that are not compliant with regulations”. Call (760) 942-2695 for your free complimentary in-home assessment.

The key to a great band? It’s the drummer. You can have a great singer or songwriter, but without a solid drummer, someone who knows how to craft a beat that compliments the tune on hand, a combo won’t gain much traction. San Diego is fortunate to have a wealth of great musicians in its midst with many great drummers including Jake Najor, Larry Grano and Duncan Moore. One of the newer additions to the list is Point Loma-based percussionist Greg Smith. Smith was born and raised in San Francisco, moving to San Diego in 2011 after a two-decade stay in Sacramento. “I grew up playing music in San Francisco. I stayed mostly around the San Francisco Bay Area until I met my wife,” he said. His relocation to San Diego was set in motion by his daughter joining the Navy. “She was stationed in San Diego. After a number of visits my wife, in her infinite wisdom, decided that San Diego would be a much better place to live,” Smith stated. Currently performing with rock quartet, Falling Doves, who next perform at the House of Blues in Anaheim on Feb. 6 and Winston’s on Feb. 11 as a warm up to a West Coast tour. Smith is a veteran of the California scene, recording his first single, “DOA in San Jose,” with

singer Rama Lama in 1972. Although he knew nothing of it at the time. “I did the session and never heard anything about it until a write up in the Sunday paper calling it a ‘cult classic’ surfaced years later,” he laughed. Smith has since recorded with numerous groups including Flowerthief and Bandelier. For Smith, there has never been a time he didn’t want to be a musician. “I think the profession chose me,” he said. “My dad played guitar and my parents bought me a toy drum kit when I was 5 years old.” Though a family friend soon broke it, he eventually got a replacement. “For my 11th birthday, I had asked for a snare drum and cymbal I saw at a neighborhood music store. My parents went out and bought me a Ludwig Super Classic 4-piece set for that birthday! I still play that same kit today,” he pointed out. His musical influences remain the same today as when he first started out playing. “I would have to say the Beatles and the other British Invasion bands on ‘Ed Sullivan’ were my original inspiration to play music,” he said. “I was into the progressive rock of the ’70s, so Yes and Emerson, Lake and Palmer were definitely an influence and I also listened to

a lot of Steely Dan. I really appreciate the precision of the rhythms in their material.” Smith recently performed on a tour of Europe, filmed for an upcoming documentary, which saw his band, Falling Doves, playing the same clubs the Beatles did when they were starting out. “It was fun to see and play in some pretty historically significant locations,” he remarked. “We went with the goal of following the footsteps of the Beatles from The Jacaranda and Cavern clubs in Liverpool to The Kaiser Keller in Hamburg, Germany. Call it a return to my original inspiration, if you will,” he said. “Touring with the Doves tends to be fast paced as you seem to be always going,” he continued. “But I like being busy so that suits me just fine. We played eight shows in two weeks, so there was a good balance between gigging days and travel or rest days.” The next year looks to be a busy one for Smith. He’ll be recording tracks with singer Kailyn Gold this spring as well as touring Europe once more with the Falling Doves later this year, with U.S. festival dates in the works as well. Smith is happy where music has taken him. “There is nothing like it,” he said. “Creating and honing songs in the moment and being able to play them successfully live is a unique feeling. It keeps you young, because there are no age barriers,” he mused.

San Diego Dance Theater’s high tea fundraiser benefits Aging Creatively and Kids on Board The San Diego Dance Theater’s 45th year opened Jan. 20-22 at the Seville Theater at City College. Jean Isaacs, the artistic director of SDDT, premiered three new works under the title of “Janus and Other Dances of Beginnings, Transitions, and Endings.” SDDT is based in Liberty Station, where classes are held in the Dance Building. This was an anniversary, not only of SDDT, but of 20 years of performances created under Isaacs’ leadership. A high tea fundraiser took place in the lobby before the Jan. 22 performance, honoring the three founding members of SDDT; George Willis, Lolita Donoso-Carter, and Johanna Weikel. There were 60 guests plus staff and volunteers. They supported Kids on Board, which takes school children along the Trolley Dances route in the fall, to view their own special performance of the dances.

It is SDDT’s part of the “Live Well San Diego Initiative.” Manny Rotenberg donated 100 percent of sales of his photographs reflecting years of dance performances. Since the donations totaled more than $3,000, George and Kate Willis added a $3,000 matching grant. The fundraiser earned $8,000.

After tea, finger sandwiches, cakes, and cookies, there was a short backstage tour and a presentation in which the founders, and Jean Isaacs were honored. Matt Carney, SDDT’s executive director, welcomed the guests and thanked the board of directors. “They really are the backbone of this organization,” he said. READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com

ARTS 19 Point Loman becomes ‘Architect of Dreams’ at Father Joe’s Villages THURSDAY · FEBRUARY 2, 2017

THE PENINSULA BEACON

BY LUCIA VITI | THE BEACON

Point Loma resident Ruth McGraw – affectionately nicknamed Ali – now sports the title “Architect of Dreams” for her artistic endeavors with students at Father Joe’s Villages. McGraw recently led a talented team of resident high schoolers ranging between the ages of 14 and 18 to sketch and paint their biggest, wildest dreams in a landscaping mural at Father Joe’s 4th Street location. The vibrant dream backdrop that graces one of the building’s largest rooms, stands as a testament to talent, determination and aspirations. “No one can assume their dreams just by looking at the mural, but you know that these kids want more,” said the 34-year-old former Marine. “I wouldn’t have expected teenagers to be this excited or talented, but they were. Their artistic ability really knocked my socks off. These kids deserve to be proud of their work.” McGraw initiated the project by teaching a series of “building dreams” art classes at Father Joe’s prior to posting their blown-up sketches on the wall. While the mural’s subject and title was “their idea,” completing the project was a “collective” effort. Jim Vargas – aka Deacon Jim – CEO and president of Father Joe’s Villages, immediately approved the project; Father Joe’s purchased the materials; and McGraw offered her guidance. “I incorporated visualization tac-

tics to spark ideas, gave the kids painting rules and references and I brought in painting books with lessons and tips,” she said. “They drew their dreams and I put them up on the wall. If their dreams included climbing the tallest mountain, I suggested that they draw themselves on top.” According to McGraw, once the sketches were up, the kids painted for hours. McGraw helped upon request and lent her artistic hand to “tie-in the in-between so that pieces flowed into each other, over window sills, ceilings and anything they could legally paint over.” The art teacher encouraged headphones for listening to music while they painted. “I enjoy listening to music while I paint,” she explained. “I detach and go into a complete state of flow. Once the kids started, some painted for hours at a time.” Although the mural took almost a month to complete, the kids stuck by

McGraw, “pumped to paint.” McGraw stated that she was nervous working with the teenagers because “I’m used to teaching younger kids.” However, the experience fueled her to dream big. McGraw plans on gathering kids of all ages to paint murals all over the world. Grounded in humility, McGraw’s initiation into painting large murals may surprise you. The art teacher had recently purchased a condo in need of a new floor. In order to avoid an expensive payment for new construction, McGraw painted a mural on the existing floor. Word of mouth quickly spread. Father Joe’s Villages found McGraw “at the right place, at the right time.” McGraw is no stranger to helping those in need through the power of art. Not only has she worked with kids at Young at Art Children’s Creative Center, a “positive and nurturing environment” that encourages children to express themselves artistical-

ly through painting, pottery, photography, pastels, mixed media, sculpture and crafts, McGraw also built a towering raw-wood installation for the Hunger Coalition featuring vignettes of San Diego’s hungry. “I proudly served as a Marine,” said McGraw. “Since leaving, I’ve wanted to have a job that made me as proud as I am to be a Marine. Painting this mural with the kids of Father Joe’s gave me that experience. I’m going to paint murals with kids all over the world, I just haven’t figured out how – yet – but I will. Murals painted for the community by their very own community artists.” “The mural is a great opportunity for these kids to express themselves not only as artists but in varied ways,” added Deacon Jim. “The mural’s an artistic piece that expresses the unique qualities of every student. Some of our kids are shy, but through art – whether it’s visual, singing or

playing an instrument – they come alive to express themselves, and blossom to fruition. “They see their talent and become encouraged to grow out of themselves and do more. Several students even surprised themselves. They knew what they could do on a small scale, but seeing their work on such a large scale enabled them to see how talented they really are.” Father Joe’s Villages, San Diego’s largest homeless services provider, works to empower its residents to achieve independence. Serving 3,000 meals daily to infants, adolescents, adults and seniors, Father Joe’s provides housing, healthcare, clothing, education and child development under the guise of “one-stop shopping.” According to Father Joe’s Villages, “Father Joe’s offers solutions to address the complex needs of the homeless, regardless of age, race, culture or beliefs. The organization’s primary goal is to transform lives and end the cycle of homelessness for the nearly 8,700 homeless individuals in San Diego County.” Their mission, they say, “Is made possible only through the efforts of compassionate staff, dedicated volunteers, and generous public and private donors.” “The vivid mural is a reminder for the students to keep reaching for their goals,” concluded McGraw. “These kids are proud of their work and so am I.”

to secure approval from the FAA, which also required that each standard be topped with continuously illuminated warning lights due to concerns about hazard to air navigation. “Ironically,” according to Dick, “the lower height has a tendency to increase light 'spillage' due to the need to 'point' the lights at a more obtuse angle to assure complete light coverage of the field.” Those were the latest developments in the push to add Point Loma High to the list of SDUSD athletic stadiums equipped with lights to host Friday night football games, along with other sports. The sticking point between neighbors and the district apparently remains the same: A lack of an enforceable guarantee that the stadium won't be used for commercial gain by outside third parties. Gibson Pratt, an attorney and PLHS stadium neighbor and spokesman for Pro-Point Loma opposing lights, said it's not unusual for alternative dispute resolution between opposing sides, as in this case, to take time. A trial lawyer himself, Pratt noted, “After trying cases for 30 years, sometimes it takes more than one day to settle things. It (lights) just didn't get settled that day.” Construction crews carefully lift one of four new light towers installed on the Point Loma High “These are non-binding mediaSchool stadium field Jan. 26 as part of the school's upgrade plan.

retired judge or an attorney who is a neutral third party. Their goal is to try and bring both parties together to reach a negotiated settlement. Unlike a court-ordered arbitrator, whose decision, like that of a judge, is binding, the mediator cannot rule for or against either side in the dispute. Craig Sherman, the attorney representing Pro-Point Loma, said neighbors continue to be open to discussing SDUSD's field-use policy governing who would be allowed to use PLHS facilities, and when. Though neighbors “Are adamant about outside third parties not being able to use Point Loma's athletic fields,” Pratt added neighbors “have been willing to discuss reasonable – meaning enforceable – conditions for use of lights for high school kids. I think the group is willing to reach a middle ground,” but he added, “the school district has not been willing to commit to that.” SDUSD could not be reached for further comment. Sherman said a trial date before a judge, who will hear both sides and likely render a decision, has been scheduled for June. In May 2016, SDUSD unani-

mously endorsed environmental documents for Point Loma High's long-term modernization, which includes stadium lights. District trustees then voted 5-0 July 12 in favor of a master-planned, Whole Site Modernization and Athletic Facilities Upgrades Project for the high school. Shortly thereafter, 17 neighbors of the high school, adamantly opposed to adding new stadium lighting, filed a class-action lawsuit against SDUSD. They claim new lighting will harm their quality of life, adding more noise, crime and visual pollution to their already overcrowded and impacted neighborhood. They also fear further commercialization of the PLHS stadium by outside interests, which they claim doesn't benefit local students or the community. Back in October 2016, at a Peninsula Community Planning Board meeting, PLHS principal Hans Becker said the high school was “very excited about having lights in our stadium. We look forward to having the same opportunities as other schools in the district since we are the only large comprehensive high school without stadium lighting. As principal, I respect the impact in the neighborhood and will continue to do everything I can to be a good neighbor. The PLHS field use policy will be followed and monitored closely.” The PLHS Whole-Site Modernization and Athletic Facilities Upgrade Project, of which proposed stadium lights is a part, is the first phase of planned long-range improvements at the high school.

“That space has been many things,” Hirmez said. “The last thing was a surf shop. It's also been a bazaar, a gym – several things.” The Hirmez family acquired the building in February of 2001. Of his new facility, Hirmez said, “Its going to be a beautiful store and fill a major void in the community. It's going to be a full-blown supermarket with a meat department and produce, a dairy and deli. We're going to emphasize a lot more organic, with whole products that we didn't have at the other store.” The grocery owner said he will work with the community to stock his new store with them in mind. “We're going to have to juggle to see what the community needs, and bring in products that work,” he said. “We want to listen to our customer's needs and give them what they want. It's going to be trial and error.” The small size of the Hirmez building required some adjustments. Previously, Hirmez said there wouldn't be room for detergents, beauty products and other items typically found at a grocery store, items which can be found at two nearby

drug stores – CVS and Rite-Aid. As for alcohol, Hirmez said police previously approved the transfer of his license from the former location to sell beer, wine and spirits – though final approval from the state Alcoholic Beverage Control Department was pending. To gain police support, Hirmez said he agreed to several conditions, including: no single cans of beer, no half-pints or miniature bottles of spirits, no fortified wines and no sales after midnight. Also, Hirmez noted no protests were filed when he applied for alcohol at the new location. He said that was a tribute to the solid reputation

and goodwill he earned at his previous site. Of remodeling and permitting, Hermiz said, “It's been trying. I really feel bad that we haven't been able to re-open faster.” The grocery owner gave kudos to the beach community for its support. “The response we've gotten from the community, the way they've welcomed us with open arms – they've been an absolute peach. We're glad to be able to give them a store where they can satisfy their ordinary grocery needs and staples, instead of having to drive out of town or live off of deli sandwiches.”
