for the worst
an Diego has been hit by multiple raging wildfires over the last several years, and when temperatures rise, so do residents’ fears about the safety of their homes. San Diego Fire Chief Javier Mainar said that despite La Jolla’s coastal position and Mediterranean climate, “it’s still an environment meant to burn.” “La Jolla presents unique challenges because of its steep topography and access issues in some of the older areas, with narrow streets and winding roads,” he said. “The other challenge is that it’s a beautiful area to live with lots of vegetation, so we don’t see the same brush management as in other areas.” Mainar said the area also encompasses many older homes that lack fire prevention features like boxed eaves or non-combustible roofs and decks. Then there is the issue of emergency response. While La Jolla isn’t directly impacted by the brownouts (financial cutbacks that prevent some station resources from operating at certain times) that have
S
been instituted in other parts of the city, both Station 35 in University City and Station 21 and Pacific Beach are affected. “Those are both units that come in to support emergency activities in La Jolla proper, so that area is impacted,” Mainar said. “We are working with fewer resources than we would like to have.” Stewart Gary, a longtime firefighter, retired fire chief and fire practice principal for Citygate Associates, recently participated in a regional study to assess vulnerability and resources in the event of another major fire. “San Diego, as a region, already spends over $500 million per year on fire prevention,” Gary said. “While there is a lot of cooperation and coordination among the 50-plus agencies, there is some fragmentation as well.” Gary said the study recommended that the County Board of Supervisors lower the number of fire dispatch centers to facilitate better communication. He also said the study identifed 11 areas throughout the city “where it would be desirable to locate SEE FIRE, Page 2

With the season’s hottest temperatures looming ahead and memories of the last decade’s serious regional wildfires still fresh, several experts weigh in on La Jolla’s vulnerability to future blazes and what residents can do to prepare for the worst.

“FIRESCAPING” YOUR HOME Two local landscaping companies, KRC Rock and California’s Own Native Landscape Design, Inc., work with property owners throughout San Diego to “firescape” their properties, or maximize the defensibility of homes and buildings in the event of wildfires. David Garcia, general manager of KRC Rock, said that the first 30 feet in front of a house is the most critical area for fire defense and should include a high proportion of hardscape, like gravel, rock, pavers, flagstone and similar materials. “Almost everyone whose home was damaged in previous fires changed their landscaping to hardscaping,” Garcia said. “It creates an important barrier, it looks nice and it’s cost effective.” Decorative gravel can be installed for as low as 15 cents per square foot, he added. When firescaping the area from 30 to 100 feet away from a house, Greg Rubin, landscape specialist and owner of California’s Own Native Landscape design, said that the types of plants used in landscaping matter less than whether or not they are properly hydrated. “Everything can burn, but SEE FIRESCAPING, Page 2

New Hennessey’s opens in La Jolla BY JENNA FRAZIER | VILLAGE NEWS Hennessey’s Tavern, the Southern California restaurant chain known for its cozy Irish pub ambiance and classic cuisine, has opened a new location at 7811 Herschel Ave. that ups its traditional allure with a sophisticated flair. “It’s very similar to most of our locations, but this particular location has a little extra zing,” said Sharon Rich, a Hennessey’s marketing representative. “It’s eclectic and there are some special items you wouldn’t find on a typical Hennessey’s menu.” For example, the restaurant offers basic salads, calamari, pecan-encrusted baked brie, hearty sandwiches, and the famous Hennessey’s burger with ample toppings.

CONTINUED FROM Page 1 additional fire stations,” one being North Torrey Pines. After the study, Gary said that Mayor Jerry Sanders’ office hired the team to collaborate with the fire chief on a “very detailed micro study” on the city to provide advice about where to locate and how to staff fire stations. The study began in early August and should be released by the end of the year, he said. Erik Bruvold, president of the National University System Institute for Policy Research, contributed to another study dedicated to fire protection investment in Southern California. The study compared per capita spending on fire services and emergency medical response in Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties. “What we found is that, adding up the expenditures of all various jurisdictions that provide fire services, San Diego spends a significantly smaller amount than either [of the other counties],” Bruvold said. The numbers showed that Los Angeles County’s per-capita expenditures were $219.77, Orange County’s were $190 and San Diego County’s
were $153.75. Bruvold said San Diego’s firefighting resources are often stretched thin when Santa Ana wind conditions fuel fires to the north, then blow south over a period of days. “The way the mutual-aid system works, the firefighters are already on the lines and deployed in those areas,” Bruvold said. “That means there are fewer resources close to San Diego during those first 36 hours.” La Jolla faces specific challenges, too, Bruvold added. “Many homes in La Jolla are on the urban-wildland interface, particularly in the Mount Soledad area,” he said. In those areas, he said, fires often spread more quickly and can be harder for emergency personnel to reach.
PREPARING FOR FUTURE WILDFIRES “In a large wildfire event, there aren’t enough firefighters to protect every home,” Mainar said. “You can do a lot to help yourself.” One key tactic, he said, involves creating a defensible space of about 100 feet between wildlife and the home to give firefighters room to work and to create a barrier between the flames. The first 35 feet or so usually includes
NEWS irrigated landscape, and the last 65 feet is natural vegetation. “If you thin that last area to about 50 percent of its normal mass, that makes it more difficult for fire to get a really strong run,” Mainar said. He advised removing flammable items such as patio furniture and woodpiles from near the home, replacing roofs with non-combustible materials, replacing single-pane windows with dual-pane and covering attic vents with 1/8-inch mesh and chimneys with 1/4-inch mesh. Once a fire actually occurs, Mainar said the standard advice has changed from “leave early or stay and defend” to a plan called “ready, set, go,” in light of the deaths that occurred last year during wildfires in Australia where residents tried to save their homes. “Do as much as you can to prepare yourself and your home in advance, have an evacuation plan, gather up
FIRESCAPING CONTINUED FROM Page 1
just about everything can be fire resistant if watered sufficiently and brought to the right hydration levels,” he said. Rubin recommends not clearing the ground completely because “it’s almost immediately replaced with highly flammable weeds.” Instead, he said his team usually thins the area’s canopy coverage by about 50 percent, which removes 60 to 80 percent of its fuel volume. Then, the team mulches the trimmings and puts it back into the ground to prevent soil erosion and weed growth.

an emergency kit, determine where you’d meet your family and what you’d do with your pets all before the fact,” Mainar said. “Once the fire is occurring, closely monitor what authorities tell you. If the fire appears it may be threatening your home or community, get out of the area.” “We also implement paths that break up the plants into groupings and also double as fire breaks,” he said. Rubin said that when planting new vegetation, his team uses lowgrowing ground covers “with just a smattering of shrubs,” with a preference for native plants. “They require less water to stay in a fire resistant condition, they stabilize slopes and they attract local wildlife like birds and butterflies,” he said. Rubin said his company charges $100 per hour for an initial property assessment and to determine a client’s expectations. Then, his team prepares a proposal with itemized

Bishop’s School, Country Day welcome changes
Astronaut to attend Jewish Film Festival screening
BY JENNA FRAZIER | VILLAGE NEWS The Bishop’s School and La Jolla Country Day School are back in session for the school year, marking the occasion with improvements to faculty, campuses and extracurricular activities. The Bishop’s School, whose roughly 780 students began classes Aug. 18, has welcomed five new faculty members — two new administrators and three new teachers, said Suzanne Weiner, director of marketing and public relations. The campus has also implemented a new schedule that permits a late start each Wednesday morning, at 8:20 a.m. instead of 7:20. “It allows faculty to have time to collaborate and meet, and gives students and family a little extra time in the morning,” Weiner said. “I think it will be a marvelous change for communication among the faculty.” Administration has also added an additional lunch period, bringing the total count up to three, and added 10 minutes to each period. “We serve hot lunch to every student, teacher and staff member,” Weiner said. “That’s close to 950 lunches a day. It placed a huge amount of stress on the food service department, and it also meant students were rushed during lunch.” Finally, the campus has implemented a campus card system that allows students and faculty to charge meals and other expenses to a debit account to which funds can be added online. Previously, bills were sent out each month.
The San Diego Jewish Film Festival will kick off its 21st season Aug. 29 with a screening of “An Article of Hope,” a movie about Israeli astronaut Ilan Ramon and the small Torah scroll he carried with him on his mission aboard the ill-fated Space Shuttle Columbia flight in 2003. The film follows the route of the artifact from pre-World War II Europe to space. Director Dan Cohen and producer Chris Cowen will join astronaut Garrett Reisman after the screening to answer questions and meet with members of the audience. Reisman was the first Jewish crewmember to board the International Space Station. Sandra Kraus, film festival producer, said festival organizers chose

“This will eliminate charges having to be calculated by the business department and sent home, plus parents can buy tickets and other items online,” Weiner said. La Jolla Country Day School started classes on Aug. 24 with the largest student enrollment in its history, with about 1,130 students from age three to grade 12, said Chris Lavin, director of communications and marketing. “Given the state of the economy, this has been a very good year for Country Day,” he said. The school recently completed a $47 million five-year campus redevelopment plan that adds new buildings and facilities to its 28-acre property in University City. “Basically, it’s a mini-college campus,” Lavin said of the project, which included new athletic fields and tennis courts, new landscaping, fencing and gates, a new visual arts and science
building, a new administration building and a new middle school. The project also added a kindergarten “village” with its own entrance off Executive Drive. All the construction for the village was done using “state-of-the-art, green materials and methods” that are certified by Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED), Lavin said. Lavin said the school’s foreign travel and community service programs continue to grow in popularity, with students taking trips around the world throughout the year to complete various projects. He said the school has encouraged this trend by adding to its language programs to include courses in Mandarin and Arabic. “We’re offering more foreign language and more foreign travel than ever,” he said. “It’s a part of trying to get kids out in the world a little bit earlier.”

Andra Brown. Troyer, 66, was represented by a public defender. His bail was raised to $250,000 from $50,000, with an additional $25,000 for driving with a suspended license, Brown said.

That makes this film unique beyond anything else you’ve seen about Ilan Ramon.” The film will start at 7:15 p.m. at the David and Dorothea Garfield Theatre, 4126 Executive Drive.

Southern civil rights activist, licensed pilot, charm school headmaster, philanthropist and writer Letitia Jones Sherman — known as Leigh Sherman, a La Jolla resident since 1985 — didn’t take kindly to stereotypes of 20th-century femininity. On Aug. 17, Sherman passed away peacefully in her home at age 91, leaving behind four children, 11 grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, a brother and a legacy of fearlessly breaking boundaries. Sherman was born Florence Letitia Jones in 1918 in Youngstown, Ohio and moved to Little Rock, Ark. at age 20, where she eventually became a single working mother to four children. Her daughter, Letitia Sorensen, remembers her mother as a strong, independent role model. “She was very hardworking and conscientious about providing for her family,” Sorensen said. “She regretted having to spend time away, but she was a very strong woman.”

model, Sherman founded a charm school to teach etiquette and modeling skills to local girls. “She was a very beautiful woman with many admirers,” Sorensen recalled. During her time in the South, Sherman became a licensed pilot and was active in the Civil Rights movement, joining a women’s committee dedicated to reopening schools after they closed in 1957 in an attempt to avoid desegregation. She also helped support the famous “Little Rock Nine” as they became the first group of African-American students to enter Little Rock High School. “If you were white and you did that in the South, they had a certain term for you that was pretty derogative,” Sorensen said. “She was brave to stand up for their rights.” Sherman moved to La Jolla in 1985 after her children were grown, fulfilling a dream she had cherished since first visiting the area as a teenager in 1938. She was also a writer, joined
Women and drafted her autobiography, “The 20th Century and Me.” A prominent figure in the local community, Sherman was involved with the Social Service League of La Jolla, spearheading fundraising efforts for the League House by recruiting speakers and planning charity events. At age 75, Sherman went hang gliding at the Torrey Pines Gliderport “just to prove she could do it,” Sorensen said. A few years later, she took a hot air balloon ride. “She was very free-spirited,” Sorensen said. “She did things with no hesitation. Whatever she had it in her mind to do, she was determined and she found a way to do it.” Sherman’s friends and family will commemorate her life today, Aug. 26, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Darlington House, 7441 Olivetas Ave. Donations may be made in Sherman’s memory to the Social Service League of La Jolla.

Bishop’s looking to get over title hump BY LEE CORNELL | VILLAGE NEWS Last year, The Bishop’s School made an improbable run to the Division V finals before finally being upended by perennial football power Francis Parker. With many of the team’s elite players set to return along — with some additional talent — the Knights could realistically take it one step further this season. “Anytime you make it to the championship game and return some big pieces of the puzzle, you’re always optimistic about the season,” said Knights head coach Joel Allen. “We’ve got one of the toughest schedules we’ve had in four or five years and it’s definitely going to be an uphill battle, but we’re excited.” Behind a Wing T offense, Bishop’s is a predominantly run-first team. But this year, it has a quarterback in Joey Moreno, who can stretch the field for big plays and quick scoring. The multi-talented sports star got off to an exceptional start at quarterback last season but suffered a broken ankle in the team’s second game. With Moreno back in action, many folks on the La Jolla campus are excited to see how he has recovered and what his talent can add to a team already on the upswing. “Joey is very talented,” Allen said. “He has a calmness and great poise as a quarterback. Last year, we were throwing three or four times a game. But with Joey, we can line up and throw 25 times if we want to.” The Knights also boast explosive running back Alec Fisher who, as a junior last season, ran for more than 1,400 yards, led the team in receiving with nearly 400 yards and totaled 16 touchdowns. Now a senior, Fisher is an early candidate to become one of the best offensive players in the area. On the other side of the ball, Bish-

op’s runs a 50 defense. In that formation, the Knights have three defensive linemen who line up with the two outside linebackers at the line of scrimmage. “Our safeties get real involved in the run game,” Allen said. Fisher was a standout on defense last year as well, ranking second on the team in tackles and grabbing an interception. His brother, Austin, led the squad in tackles as an outside linebacker and can do some damage as a running back himself. Other top defensive players include junior defensive back Dominique Love, senior middle linebacker Micah Seau (Junior is his uncle) and bruising senior linebacker Robbie Stiefler, who led the team in interceptions and was third in tackles.

The Knights kick off their regular season at El Capitan on Friday, Sept. 3. The second game of the year is a natural rivalry, when Bishop’s travels across town to La Jolla Country Day in a battle for city bragging rights. The Knights finally host a game when Mar Vista visits La Jolla High — where Bishop’s plays all its home games — on Saturday, Sept. 25 at 7 p.m. Allen and his crew will see where they stand in the Coastal League when they welcome Francis Parker for a big match up Oct. 22. “Parker has to be the team to beat they’ve won two in a row,” Allen said. “Coach Morrison has done a great job over there. To say they’re not the team to beat would be foolish.” It would also be foolish to count out the boys from Bishop’s.

Entering his second season, La Jolla High School (LJHS) football coach Rey Hernandez doesn’t know what to expect in the win-loss columns from his mostly-revamped roster. What he does expect of his group of young men is to steadily improve over the course of the year. “You’ve got to get better every day,” Hernandez said. “You want to be competitive, and if you can be competitive, then you can win on a weekly basis.” The Vikings finished 5-7 in 2009, including a first-round playoff win against Palo Verde (near Blythe). Their season ultimately came to an end against Division IV runner-up Valley Center in the second round. With much of the core of last year’s team lost to graduation, this season’s squad has a chance to prove itself. Starting quarterback Cory Wagner is one of the few returning players who contributed significantly in 2009. “I’m finally getting the chance to lead this team to hopefully a very winning season,” Wagner said. “I’ve got to make sure everybody’s hustling and doing what they’re supposed to do.

all starts with practice.” The Vikings’ Wing T offense revolves around a strong running attack with a lot of misdirection intended to confuse opposing defenses. The speedy Wagner will be in control of distributing the ball evenly and precisely to his three running backs in the backfield and to his solo wide receiver. Wagner will use play-action to keep opponents honest. “We’re looking to be a strong running team but we’re hoping that playaction pass is going to be problematic for people,” Hernandez said. On the defensive side of the ball, Hernandez hopes his team will show improvement. Behind a 3-4 linebacker-heavy scheme, La Jolla should get nice contributions from two seniors — defensive back Alex Damico and defensive lineman Patrick Haggerty. La Jolla opens up its regular season at home against Mt. Carmel on Sept. 3. The matchup serves as a way for players to show their coaches and fans how far they have come as a team since grueling summer workouts got under way. “In the first game, I’m looking for execution, effort and hustle,” Hernandez said. “Hopefully, we don’t have a lot of mental mistakes. That would be a good indicator that we’ve prepared well. We worked pretty hard this summer, so that’s encouraging.” The Vikings get a shot at redemption on Sept. 17 when they travel to Valley Center in a rematch of last year’s playoff loss. Other notable games include a rivalry showdown against Mission Bay High on Nov. 5. La Jolla wraps up its regular season on Nov. 12 when it welcomes Western League newcomer Madison High to La Jolla for the annual homecoming game. Hernandez said that although Mission Bay and Point Loma have dominated the Western League in recent years, those schools are undergoing major overhauls not unlike that of the Vikings. “The team that eventually wins it is going to be the team that improves the most from the beginning to the end,” Hernandez said.

Boutique offers effortless style Kerut owner Lauren Turek offers advice and inspiration about upcoming trends BY JENNA FRAZIER | VILLAGE NEWS Lauren Turek, the proprietress of one of La Jolla’s sleekest new boutiques — named Kerut, her last name backward — has no interest in fitting the mold. From a carefully-curated collection of clothing, jewelry, shoes and accessories from around the world to a distinctly personal relationship with each client, Kerut has carved out a niche that embraces comfort, style and a taste of the unexpected. The newly-renovated location resembles the elegantly laid-back demeanor Turek herself exudes. Its high-lofted ceilings, fresh white walls, distressed hardwood floors and 25-

foot reclaimed wood beams from Temecula. Moroccan chandeliers, antique trunks and other one-of-akind fixtures contribute to an atmosphere that is “modern yet warm,” Turek said. The boutique also offers a lounge area near the fitting rooms with a fully-stocked bar, an entertainment center and a stellar ocean view over the Cove, achieved by demolishing the rear wall. “I think it’s really important for people to come in and feel relaxed, and for friends and family to be welcomed as well,” Turek said. The style of the boutique — which Turek calls “effortlessly sophisticated”— mirrors her own polished bohemian flair and includes pieces that are easy to wear but still fashionforward. “My boutique is for the woman who works very hard in her career and wants those effortless pieces that can transition from day to night, or the woman who lives in La Jolla and has homes in Arizona and southern France, and wants those pieces she can wear on a two-month jaunt around the world,” Turek said. While the boutique reflects a laidback California feel, Turek still strives for an element of surprise. “There’s definitely a bit of irreverence to some of my pieces,” Turek said. “Sometimes fashion takes itself too seriously. I think it’s important to be playful and different, to push the envelope a little bit.” Turek descended upon La Jolla last October after working as a head per-
sonal shopper and stylist for a J. Crew concept store in Aspen, Colo. She also spent time as an investment banker and worked on Capitol Hill and in the White House. But her heart was always set on fashion. “My mom says I’ve been preparing for this job since I was three,” Turek said. “I always thought it was too fun to be a job.” A new scarf line, “we are owls,” recently debuted its first season and features 100 percent cashmere scarves that Turek calls “works of art.” The garments, which start at $278, are emblazoned with patterns resembling flocks of birds and cheetah prints, and come in shadowy shades of cream, black and gray, plus an eclectic blend of gray and electric yellow. “They’re stunning,” Turek said. Another favorite is the Kara Ross jewelry line, which blends precious and semi-precious stones with animal skin. The collection starts at $198 and features chandelier earrings and an 18-karat gold cuff bracelet made of stingray and pink quartz. Kerut’s collection also showcases handcrafted Indian tunics with unique features like leather inlay and sequins, from an Indian-American designer named Sulu. Each takes one month to complete, Turek said. “There’s a lot of people doing tunics, but these are the best on the market,” Turek said. The line starts at $298. One last pick includes what Turek calls “de-structured knitwear or drapery,” starting at $278 by 26-year-old
here it’s going on the menu as a permanent fixture,” Rich said. Draft and bottle beers accompany a wine list, but the selection is “a little more upscale,” Rich said. “We will also feature some craft beers and a local microbrewery selection, which will change depending on what the local breweries put out. We’re hoping to invite local breweries and wineries to host dinners and pairings.” With fire pits, live music and a private room available for booking and customized menus, the ambiance caters to the young and upwardly
mobile but also maintains a family atmosphere, Rich said. “We’re aiming for a lounge ambiance but still with that family feel,” Rich said. “It’s not so much a pub, but more a hip, happening restaurant and bar. This is a place where you can come meet young locals and catch a great band but also bring the kids along and have a great time or just a relaxing evening.” Rich said the restaurant is in the process of lining up local musicians. “Live music will primarily be on the

Kerut also boasts what Turek calls “six-star service,” with free overnight delivery and basic tailoring, plus personal shopping in-store or at hotel rooms. “I even shop for clients as I go to showrooms and select pieces for upcoming seasons,” Turek said. “Pretty much anything you can imagine, we do it for you.” Turek attends shows at least four times per year, she said, with multiple trips to Paris, New York and Los Angeles to peruse the latest releases from up-and-coming designers. She also discovers new lines and trends through referrals, word of mouth, and devouring all the latest fashion publications. “I’m constantly shopping,” she said. “I try to maintain a very unique product mix.” The fall season marks a return to
“ladylike silhouettes, longer length dresses and a look that is more chic and traditional — but with a twist,” Turek said.

While her plan to open a luxury boutique in the current economic climate was met with some skepticism, Turek said she “couldn’t think of a better time.” “This is an opportunity,” she said. “There’s a real vacuum for retailers. Everyone’s consolidating and selling the same things. People want a personal experience.” Turek said she is also working to get involved with community planning groups to keep streets clean, beautify the Village and strengthen partnerships among businesses. “We need to collectively succeed for the community to prosper,” she said.

‘BFE’ Asian American Rep debuts at La Jolla Playhouse BY CHARLENE BALDRIDGE | VILLAGE NEWS Asian American Repertory Theatre (AART), the La Jolla Playhouse company in residence this season, debuted its work at the Theodore and Adele Shank Theatre last weekend. Amy Cho’s “BFE” continues through Sept. 19, allowing AART the space it lacks, at least for the duration of the residency. The plot concerns Isabel (Elise Kim Prosser), a middle-age woman with agoraphobia, who spends the day watching TV in her satin nightgown. She lives with her brother, Lefty (Albert Park), who supports Isabel and her 14-year-old illegitimate daughter, Panny (Carolyn Henderson). Albert brings Panny a birthday cake and unwrapped earrings. Isabel has forgotten Panny’s age, and Albert has given her pierced earrings for her unpierced ears. Panny is reclusive and depressed, worried as everyone else about a serial killer preying on young women at her “Podunk school in the middle of a nowhere town.” Her only social outlets are her blond girlfriend, Nancy (Jeanneal Gunning), and her Korean penpal, Hae-Yoon (Trinity Tuyen Tran), whom we see on video. Also on video are constant shots of the action as well as Isabel’s fantasies of Douglas McArthur (Michael Tutino), whom she believes was the lover who impregnated her. When he’s not working as a security guard at a major department store, Lefty creates avatar miniatures and paints them with brushes that have as few as two hairs. This impresses Evvie, a lovely African-American clerk (Lynae DePriest) with whom he falls in love. Meanwhile, Panny wrong-dials a 20-year-old named Hugo (John Alspough) and a phone friendship springs up. In a scene that could have come right out of Tennessee Williams, Isabel seduces a pizza guy while Panny meets Hugo for the first time and Lefty trysts with Evvie. Tony Perez completes the company. Written in brief, cinematic scenes, Cho’s play obliquely addresses issues of abandonment and neglect, teenage angst, mental illness and the SEE BFE, Page 10

Way Beyond delivers fun, fitness for kids BY DEBBIE HATCH | VILLAGE NEWS Way Beyond is a new science-based children’s gym in La Jolla offering such a fun workout children won’t even realize they are exercising. “Kids don’t want to workout; they want to have fun,” said Brian Blacher, one of two owners of Way Beyond, 4485 La Jolla Village Drive, Unit K-1. Blacher said kids today need a place like Way Beyond because they do not get regular exercise playing outside these days. “We wrap our kids in cotton balls and they become soft,” Blacher said of the physical condition of many children. Young patrons might feel as though they have stepped into the updated version of Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory when they first see the establishment. The floor-to-ceiling equipment, which resembles amusement park rides, as well as the colorful balls and kid-friendly climbing walls are sure to entice any child to play. The children sign up for a class with a trainer, who takes the children around to the various stations, where they do repetitions like an adult might do at a traditional gym. Participants gain core strength and neuromuscular development while having fun, instead of thinking about balance, coordination and muscle groups. A child can expect to hear a trainer say something similar to “jump, jump, dunk the ball with your left hand.” Then, the child will
act out the motion and feel like they are playing a game, Blacher said. Blacher and his team track each child’s progress and parents have access to all the statistics and information. “There’s a lesson plan for every workout,” Blacher said. “I needed to put the science behind the game.” He and his partner, Dean Simon, the architect behind the entire structural design, had an interactive Wii concept in mind for Way Beyond. The gym equipment was designed and built in South Africa, where the two business partners are from, and where Simon currently resides. The duo shipped the structures to the United States, where they arrived in seven 40foot containers, along with a precise plan for construction. “This is a first of its kind,” said Blacher. Blacher has been working in children’s sports development for 25 years. He has owned other gyms for both children and adults. However, he said that he prefers working with children. He and Simon plan to franchise the gym, with the first franchise already slated for Carlsbad. They have also received interest from Boca Raton, Fla. and international locations. It was no easy road, though. Simon came to Blacher with the design in December 2007, and the premier location in La Jolla didn’t open until June of this year. SEE FIT, Page 10

CONTINUED FROM Page 9 Blacher acknowledges that kids can get hurt, but he utilizes a low trainer-to-child ratio to mitigate the risk. Each piece of equipment was built for six children to use at once, and everything about the facility, from the equipment to chairs to railings, was designed with deliberate intention by Simon. “ We h ave l i t t l e o p e n p l ay, ” Blacher said. Blacher takes pride in the fact that he has hired top people in each field —
like pediatric cardiologists and physical therapists — who act as advisors at the facility. Way Beyond is also equipped to work with children who have special needs. Blacher foresees the space being rented out for corporate events as well, especially since he has noticed that during many birthday parties held at Way Beyond, dads are having fun too. Way Beyond also has a café serving teas, coffees and treats such as glutenfree brownies. Reservations are required for participants.

ART Scott Wright exhibits at the La Jolla Library BY WILL BOWEN | VILLAGE NEWS About once a month the La Jolla Library at 7555 Draper St. features a different artist’s work as an exhibition. It’s held in the community room, which is through the first door on the right as you enter the library. The community room is a large space with a high, vaulted ceiling and hanging chandeliers. It also sees duty as a space for classes, movies, and music events. So far, the library’s art shows in the community room have been informal. Artists have approached the library and, if approved, have been allowed to show their work. But now the Friends of the Library have created an Art Committee, headed by Arlene Powers, and they have ambitious plans to make the library’s art shows even bigger and better. According to Powers, who is the vice president of the Friends and chairman of the Art Committee. “We are going to be improving and embellishing the community room for art exhibits and by early next year our art exhibitions are going to become even more exciting and wonderful,” she said. The library art show currently running (through Aug. 31) features the work of La Jolla artist Scott Wright. Wright is a building contractor by day who turned to art at the age of 50 as a way to relax and de-stress, under orders from his doctor. Scott does wonderful small drawings of exotic fish that he calls “Doodle Fish” and larger 3-foot-by-4-foot watercolor paintings of fish, sea turtles and sea birds, as well as abstract images. At the reception for the artist

on Aug. 17, there were about 50 people present, nibbling on tasty deli tidbits and sipping wine. Many of Wright’s friends and associates were there and it was overwhelmingly apparent that Wright is a very popular and well-loved individual. Wright was born in 1952 in Sugar Pine, California, just outside of Yosemite National Park. He said he comes from an old logging family. “My great grandfather was the engineer on ‘Old Betsy,’ the train that brought logs out of Yosemite before it became a National Park,” Wright said. “My grandmother was born right on the grounds of the park.” When Wright was 3 years old, his family moved to San Francisco, and then later to the Monterey/Carmel area. By the age of nine, Wright had drawn more than 300 different birds, because even as a child he loved nature and wildlife. After college, Wright went to work on the Alaska Pipeline. When he came home, he apprenticed and learned all
WILL BOWEN | Village News
aspects of the building trades. About 24 years ago he came to La Jolla to visit his twin brother and decided to stay. He opened a building contractor business, which he calls “The Wright Company.” So far, Wright has built more than 300 homes in La Jolla, including Bill Black’s (builder of the paved road down to Black’s Beach) home at Neptune and Belvedere. He has also constructed nine La Jolla restaurants, including The French Pastry Shop, and has been involved in the remodeling of The Spot and Jose’s Mexican Restaurant. By the time he was 52, he had sold five examples of his work to The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Every evening after work, Wright comes home, goes to his study and gets to work on art. It’s his main way to relax and has contributed to improved overall health. Wright said his goal with art is “to create ethereal artistic images constructed with a contractor’s eye for precision, design and detail.”

with Vincent Andrunas It’s summertime, and the livin’ may be easy, but the La Jolla Music Society (LJMS) wouldn’t be resting on its lyrics even if it had any. This hard-working (yet clearly fun-loving) group of music presenters has been busily entertaining adoring crowds with its 2010 Summerfest series of theater and house concerts, featuring top artists and well-chosen musical programs. Crowning the season was the “Endless Summer” gala at Scripps Institution of Oceanography’s Seaside Forum. That relatively new beachfront venue is becoming increasingly popular, as its charms (accessible location, good parking, great view, flexible facility, etc.) have become apparent. Surely, we’ll see many more social events there. LJMS music director, conductor and violinist Cho-Laing “Jimmy” Lin deserves a lot of credit for the group’s success. His multiple talents are clearly evident, extending even to his entertaining and revealing “Summerfest Diary,” which appeared in San Diego print media throughout the season. The gala, chaired by Barbara Enberg, began with champagne and flavorful taste treats, after which guests were seated for a concert program. Pieces began with classical Brahams works and ranged through such international surprises as “Rumanian Canary” (complete with bird calls coaxed from stringed instruments) and “The Horse Race” (a spirited piece featuring erhu [a Chinese two-string violin] and accordion), concluding with Chopin’s “Polonaise Brilliante.” Dinner with the artists followed, featuring the culinary artistry of Jeffrey Strauss of Pamplemousse Grille (he does get around, doesn’t he?), and the evening concluded with partygoers dancing to quite another kind of music — provided by a DJ — while wearing crazy glasses with lighted rims, that seemed to appear out of nowhere. Just two days later, LJMS held a house concert at the home of Linda
Chester and Kenneth Rind. After wine and hors d’oeuvres, guests sat for a concert on the shaded back lawn. The view, though quite beautiful, was eclipsed by the performance. One piece, a duet, required not just musical talent, but also acting ability (in the form of gestures and facial expressions)! Best-selling author Elizabeth Brundage gave guests copies of her newest book, “A Stranger Like You,” with an autograph personalized for each recipient. ••• Sunna Bohlen hosted a recent luncheon event at her beautiful home for the Red Rose Society. Founded by Jeanne Jones, the Society is a part of the San Diego and Imperial County Chapter of the American Red Cross. They raise
funds to purchase service vehicles for the local chapter, to support the efforts of responders to disasters and emergencies. Every cent of every donation goes toward these trucks — nothing else — and to date, the group has purchased 11 vehicles. The multi-talented Sunna prepared two refreshing salads and lots of decadent-looking desserts, grew and arranged the floral displays, and created all the paintings in her artfilled home. The wonderful chardonnay served was from Flowers, the winery owned by Sunna’s next-door neighbors.

What to Do to Avoid Sibling Problems When Caring for Mom Today, due in part, to blended families, the principles of family life that you believe in may no longer be valid. But because our parents are living longer and we still want to be connected, siblings are probably the most important part of the care giving structure. In Francine Russo’s book, “They’re Your Parents, Too: How Siblings Can Survive Their Parents Aging Without Driving Each Other Crazy,” she describes the “anger/guilt gridlock” that can cause great challenges for siblings in their efforts to help Mom and Dad. Part of this stems from the assumption that the siblings don’t need to discuss what they’re going to do for their parents because they will just know. A healthy relationship with your brothers and sisters requires respect, trust, reciprocity, affection and being able to disagree without passing judgment. How can the children work together to care for their parents, even if they can’t share the same exact responsibilities? Here are some tips to consider: Talk to each other and your parents before a crisis to learn about powers of attorney, living wills and long term care insurance. Ask your parents what they want, don’t assume and get it in writing. Deal with the most immediate issues first, such as safety. Get everyone involved in the decision making process. Stay in touch and apprised of any changes through emails or telephone. Realize and accept that there will be differences of opinions. Don’t accuse, try to reach a consensus for your parent’s sake. Get help from eldercare experts The RN Geriatric Care Managers at Innovative Healthcare Consultants can help you with a thorough plan of action.
