:::: FROM THE PUBLISHER
TM
South of the Border has Evolved
I
went to high school and grew up in North San Diego County. Having moved from Texas, I thought that I had hit the jackpot. San Diego had the beaches, the mountains, the desert, SeaWorld, the San Diego Zoo, La Jolla, Los Angeles – all at our fingertips. But there was one other place that was also a gem, especially in my college years. It was Mexico! Long before the recent negative publicity that Mexico experienced, I was making regular trips south of the border. During spring breaks in Rosarito Beach there were more Americans walking the town than Mexicans. During other times of the year, it was not uncommon to make a last minute decision to head to Puerto Nuevo (commonly referred to as “Lobster Village”) for a day trip to feast on fresh Pacific lobster, warm tortillas, rice and beans, and cold beverages. We could be sitting at the table in about an hour and a half if driving from North County. For the more determined, Ensenada was also a very easy day trip. These were good times. Things were much more simple back then. When I met my wife Jessica in the ‘90s, I was introduced to a different part of Mexico. She had been making the trek down to San Felipe for nearly her entire life. Her father had built a home right on the beach in a remote area slightly south of San Felipe as a result of being involved in the Baja 1000 when he was younger. As Jessica and I began our life together and started making the regular trips to San Felipe, I started becoming part of many of her family’s “Mexico” traditions. Carpooling was encouraged – not necessarily for safety reasons; it was simply more fun. There were certain gas stations that you stopped at. There was a specific route that was taken, and a couple of restroom stops (always the same spots). If we were driving in a group, everyone tried to stay together on the five hour commute. When available, walkie-talkies were used (that always added an extra element to the trip). All of this culminated at the Derrick Breaux most anticipated stop of the day – downtown San Felipe, where the fish tacos, Publisher tortas, and ice cold beer signified that we were now on vacation. With full bellies, we would finish the last 30-minute leg of the drive and arrive at my father-in-law’s beautiful slice of beachfront paradise on the Sea of Cortez. Over the years, we have watched Mexico evolve. The horror stories that you see on the news or hear about from “friends of friends” don’t seem to have been a reality – at least in our parts of Mexico near San Diego. However, there is one reality – many Americans simply stopped going. Spring break is now just like any other week in San Felipe. You no longer see the packs of American teenagers and young adults partying at the hot spots and beaches. It’s slower paced. It’s quite peaceful. We recently went down to the house in San Felipe for spring break. It was a quiet trip. We stopped in town for fish tacos per tradition, then spent the next several days doing nothing. By doing nothing, what I mean is we spent our time relaxing, watching our kids play with their cousin nonstop from sunup to sundown in the sand on the beach. We fished. We cooked. We had happy hour – San Felipe style, of course. We were visited by friends from Del Sur. We played board games and cards after dinner (a few house favorites are Mexican Train, Drunk Mexican Poker, and Spoons). There were no moans and groans from the kids of being hungry or bored. In fact, we had to drag our kids to the table for dinner, at which time they consumed quantities of food that I had never seen them eat before. What 10-year-old kid eats four burritos at a single sitting? Once upon a time, the slower paced (let’s call it relaxing) experience wouldn’t have really worked for me. I’ve always been the type to be on the go. I didn’t completely understand the “sitting around” thing. Now I do. I suppose that means I’ve evolved as well.

CSCA Brings the World to the Village SISTER CITIES EXCHANGE ARTWORK WITH CARLSBAD
C
arlsbad Sister City Ambassadors (CSCA) is bringing the world to Carlsbad and sharing Carlsbad with the world through international art exchanges. The organization recently announced six members of Carlsbad-Oceanside Art League (COAL) who will each be exhibiting five of their original artworks in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic in August. The artists chosen include Rita Shulak, Sibylla Voll, Elli Havel Thomas, David Schlegel, Lois Athearn, and Charles Dozer. Two alternate artists, Christine Ames and Diane O’Connell, were also chosen. Many of the winning artists hope to travel abroad and visit the exhibition in person in August. The exhibit is part of an international art exchange that will take place between the two international sister cities. In June 2016, Karlovy Vary artists will then send their own artwork to Carlsbad where it will be exhibited at the COAL gallery in celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Carlsbad-Karlovy Vary International Sister City relationship. CSCA also recently selected six students from Carlsbad High School to travel to the sister city at the invitation of the Honorable Lord Mayor Petr Kulhanek to attend the International Film Festival in Karlovy Vary in this coming July.
More recently, the CSCA also hosted visitors from Carlsbad’s other sister city, Futtsu, Japan, for a week-long tour which also included an exhibition of artwork from Futtsu elementary and junior high school students which was displayed in the Carlsbad Dove Library and at La Costa Heights Elementary School.

Calm UNDER PRESSURE STUDENT STAR MEGHAN KENNY UTILIZES LIFE LESSONS IN SPORTS AND SCHOOL by KELLEY GUSICH | photo by Lauren Nygard Photography
“I
am a very calm golfer,” described Carlsbad Student Star Meghan Kenny. “Often times I play with girls who get frustrated after just one hole, but Mr. Emerick taught me a long time ago to keep an open mind and learn from every mistake.” She started at a young age, and even though she didn’t care for the sport originally, it has since become a passion. She’s been on the CHS golf team throughout high school, where an undefeated league championship propelled them to a fifth place overall ranking at the CIF Championships. “The high school golf experience has taught me so much,” Meghan explained, “and I consider myself very lucky to have been a part of such a successful team.” Mr. Don Emerick has been her instructor since seventh grade and she continues weekly lessons with him. “Mr. Emerick has helped shape the person I am today and continues to teach me valuable life lessons,” Meghan said. “He is very much responsible for me receiving a scholarship to play golf in college along with Jim Meyers, who is a member of El Camino Country Club as well and told my future coach, Eric Thorson, about me.” Meghan will be attending Hope International University, where she intends to study business and possibly become a civil engineer.

Golf is not Meghan’s only interest. She has pursued other hobbies, such as journalism, choir, and track and field. “Ever since elementary school my favorite class has been English,” she smiled. “I have always enjoyed reading and writing, especially poetry. However, this year I have taken an interest in my psychology class. I love how we rarely use the text book because the subject is constantly changing, and we learn by experience with projects “THE HIGH SCHOOL and by conducting our own GOLF EXPERIENCE experiments. I have never taken a class quite like this one.” HAS TAUGHT ME SO Meghan volunteers at MUCH,” MEGHAN Rancho Carlsbad Golf Center during summers, helping EXPLAINED, “AND I younger kids in the golf CONSIDER MYSELF camp, and also assists at the Carlsbad 5000 every year.

They are essentially what keeps me going through everything, and I know they will always be there for me.”

SANITY-SAVING
TIPS FOR MOM by JOYCE HAVRANEK, M.D.; Scripps Coastal Medical Center, Carlsbad
Moms become expert jugglers – housecleaning, feeding the baby, working, carpooling, playing chauffeur. Wearing all these hats can make everyday life hectic. Fortunately, there are ways to stay calm, sane, and stress-free in the midst of normal family chaos. Short of building a futuristic robot that does everything from cooking and cleaning to making sure the kids get to school, these nine tips should help.
Drink plenty of water. Mild dehydration can affect your body before you realize you are thirsty. Lack of water can cause headaches, fatigue, and lack of energy.
Stay away from those golden cream-filled sponge cakes. When you’re tired and hungry it’s easy to reach for unhealthy snacks. Keep up your energy by trying to eat something every two to four hours and selecting nutritious snacks, such as string cheese, fruit, and cut-up veggies. Eating foods with low nutritional value will only add to your stress and mood swings.
Get out of the house. Even if you are exhausted, go outside for a rejuvenating walk because fresh air and exercise can help put everything in perspective.
Let out your creative self. Create something each day, even if it is just a doodle. This will help you stay connected to yourself.
Ask for support. Don’t be afraid to reach out to others for support, even if that is as simple as calling a friend or checking out a blog. Arrange for a babysitting swap with friends, or ask a trusted family member to watch the little ones while you exercise or get some sleep.
Laugh. Whether giggling or guffawing, laughter is good for you and your family. Laughter reduces your stress by increasing the endorphins to your brain and relaxing your muscles. It should be easy to find humor in the antics of your little ones.
Be grateful. Try writing down three things every day for which you are thankful. Having an attitude of gratitude provides perspective and brings you to the present.
Take time for yourself. Understand that you most likely won’t finish everything on your “To Do” list – ever. So take time each day to do whatever you like. Some moms wake up before the family to read and enjoy a cup of uninterrupted coffee or tea. You may choose to carve out some time to meditate, take a bath, or simply listen to music. Make sure your family understands that this is “mommy’s time.”
Play with your kids. Have some stress relievers you can do with your children, such as drawing, blowing bubbles, dancing, and playing with pets. Stroking the cat, feeding hay to the bunny, playing catch at the park with the dog, or even watching fish glide in an aquarium can reduce stress and can also teach your children to care for others. Raising a family has its challenges, but learning to relax and giving up the idea of perfection will let you and your children enjoy the ride, bumps and all. ¢

hen Joanna and Chris Nicholson relocated to Olde Carlsbad in 2002 it was Halloween night. “We live on a cul-de-sac where our neighbors have literally become extended family,” shared Joanna Nicholson. Chris and Joanna met through mutual friends at a party for a Mike Tyson boxing match. Joanna double-majored in exercise science and biology at SDSU and received her post-graduate degree at USC in physician assistant studies. For 12 years she has worked at Alexander Cosmetic Surgery in La Jolla. Chris attended Mesa College and entered high-end residential construction. He became involved in mortgage lending and is a real estate broker and mortgage loan originator. Their eldest son, Nate, is in third grade at Magnolia Elementary. With his interest in computers, he recently installed an entire Linux operating system into his dad’s old computer – by himself. Nate also golfs and with his brother, Leo, plays flag football on Friday nights, coached by their

dad. Leo is in first grade. He’s an avid reader and likes to play baseball. Both boys also attend religious education classes at St. Patrick’s Catholic Church. Eli is three. He’s at the Pilgrim Children’s Center and is crazy about Ms. Carol, the same teacher his older brothers had. He loves riding his bike and scooter. Little sister Caroline is just 16 months old. Her first words were her brothers’ names. Joanna explained, "Now when they are at school she walks around the house yelling their names and looking for them." “We are always looking for one-day road trips,” mused Joanna. “We found a great one a few months back that put us in downtown Temecula at a children’s museum called Pennypickle’s Workshop. After that, we walked around old town Temecula and ended up getting caramel apples.” Back in school, Joanna volunteers each week in both boys’ classrooms at Magnolia Elementary. “It’s an incredibly rewarding experience to be able to contribute to not only our own children’s development, but to others as well,” she added. The Nicholsons are also grateful. When Eli was seven months he underwent skull reconstruction to correct craniosynostosis, a premature fusing of the skull bones. However, he recovered quickly and now that his hair has grown back, it’s like he never had brain surgery. “We have learned that each day is a gift and it should be celebrated!” revealed Joanna. Big and small, their celebrations capture the moments: from sunsets on Garfield Street above Agua Hediondia Lagoon to enjoying strawberries and oranges from the fields on Cannon.
“WE HAVE LEARNED THAT EACH DAY IS A GIFT AND IT SHOULD BE CELEBRATED!”

Carlsbad Educational Foundation (CEF) recently announced the distribution of continued funding to support Project Lead the Way (PLTW) course offerings at Sage Creek High School (SCHS) from a donation from a local Carlsbad family and a matched contribution by Qualcomm. The program, created by Indianapolis-based PLTW, engages students in problem-based activities and projects that promote critical thinking, creativity, innovation, and real-world problem solving in areas of science, technology, engineering, and math. SCHS successfully implemented the PLTW biomedical sciences course track for 200 students last year. CEF’s continued funding will support the expansion of the PLTW engineering track at SCHS and will go toward program fees, teaching staff, professional development, materials, and supplies. The U.S. Department of Commerce estimates that jobs in STEM-related fields will grow 17 percent by 2018 – nearly double the growth for non-STEM fields. The PLTW program aims to get students excited about hands-on learning in these fields. For more information visit www.carlsbaded.org.

BGCC Gets a Slam Dunk Visitor
Former NBA head coach and executive Randy Pfund recently visited the Boys & Girls Club of Carlsbad’s (BGCC) to play some ball with the Pacific Coast Hoops (PCH) youth basketball team. Randy spent two hours with the PCH players and coaches, both to assist in a one-hour skills workout and to share some of his knowledge from having worked with some of the top players in the history of basketball, from Magic Johnson to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Shaquille O’Neal, James Worthy, Dwayne Wade, and more. After the workout, Randy expressed his admiration for the PCH players’ ability and attitude while also offering constructive criticism to help the players improve their game. “It was just amazing,” said nine-year-old Connor Stevens. “I can’t believe that he coached so many of my basketball heroes like Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and while we were practicing he actually said ‘good job’ to me twice!” PCH is a youth basketball program for grades three to eight presented by the BGCC.

Cultiva ing Community The Carlsbad Garden Club Helps to Make Their Community a Beautiful Place to Live photos by Lauren Nygard The Carlsbad Garden Club began in 1932 as a means to protect and preserve the flora surrounding Carlsbad. Since that time, the organization has helped shape the beauty of this community through its service and conservation projects with the San Diego Botanic Garden, the Buena Vista Lagoon, and Magee House. Today club members volunteer their time and efforts to the Agua Hedionda Lagoon Foundation, help contribute to outreach programs such as Petals for Patriots and Pennies for Pines, and support the spread of knowledge and love of gardening with scholarships and grants to students and local youth organizations. They also, of course, come together to relax and socialize, and spend time encouraging and teaching one another so they may all learn about and enjoy their gardens. We talk with President Susan Omanski about the strong community roots the organization has planted.
24 • 0810Magazine.com • May | June 2015
Q&A with Carlsbad Garden Club
President Susan Omanski When and why was the Carlsbad Garden Club founded? What is the history behind the club?
The Carlsbad Garden Club was organized in 1932 as an outgrowth of the Carlsbad Women’s Club during the Depression as a means of beautification and protection of the flora surrounding Carlsbad. As such it became the oldest service club in the area.
Is the club affiliated with a larger umbrella organization?
Yes, we are affiliated with the National Garden Clubs, Pacific Region and the California Garden Clubs, Palomar District.
What is the club’s mission, and how do you go about fulfilling it? Our mission is to stimulate the knowledge and love of gardening, support the protection of native plants, and to encourage civic planting and beautification of Carlsbad.
How did you personally become involved with the Carlsbad Garden Club?
I made contact through the website; I was new to the area with a lifelong history of a love of gardening.
How has the organization grown and changed over the years?
The club members were very active in public beautification originally. They then switched their focus to flower shows, which brought many awards to the members and club. They were active in starting the Buena Vista Lagoon Foundation and Magee House, a historical home now housing the Carlsbad Historical Society. More recently the club has awarded grants to four Carlsbad elementary schools, the Carlsbad Senior Center, and Rancho Carlsbad for horticultural projects. Currently the emphasis of our club is on the Aqua Hedionda Lagoon Foundation, providing a horticultural scholarship to a MiraCosta College student annually, supporting various state-supported projects such as Pennies for Pines, and working with Petals for Patriots which provides floral arrangements to Wounded Warriors to show our support and appreciation to our United States military.
What is your current role within the organization, and what duties does it entail? I am the current president. I preside at board meetings and general club meetings. I also execute contracts and approve expenditures.
What is the most rewarding thing about your role? The most challenging?
The most rewarding thing is the social interaction with others while gaining education and experience with the horticultural world. The most challenging is motivating members to continually support our scholarship and environmental concerns.

Q&A with Superintendent and President
Dr. Sunny Cooke What makes MiraCosta College so unique? What makes it stand out among other community colleges in San Diego? MiraCosta has an excellent reputation for its dedication to students and their success. Everyone here really cares about the institution and they’re willing to invest their time, energy, and talent to make the college even better. Also, because of the way the college is funded, we have the ability to grow in a very strategic and planned way to meet our community’s needs. This gives us the ability to really focus on the quality of interactions with students and their success, rather than simply the number of students enrolled at a particular point in the semester.

What is your role as superintendent/ president of MiraCosta? My first priority is to get to know the people here and learn the culture of the college. I want to listen, learn, and figure out where I can best apply my energy to help the organization, students, employees, and community. I’m taking the time to meet with all departments across the college so I can get to know their history and accomplishments.
Can you tell us more about your professional and educational background? I earned my doctorate in biology at Georgetown University and completed a postdoctoral training program at MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston. I have more than 25 years of teaching and administrative experience, including as a biology professor; director of a biotechnology institute; dean of sciences, health and wellness; associate vice chancellor for workforce development; and most recently as president of Grossmont College.
bring new partnerships and opportunities to MiraCosta and showcase the amazing work that goes on here.
How many students are currently enrolled? What goals have you set to increase enrollment? We have nearly 15,000 credit students and approximately 2,500 noncredit students, plus another 2,000 fee-based students. Over the past decade, we have met the explosion in enrollment by expanding our online course offerings and also by offering courses on Fridays and even on the weekends. As we go forward, we hope to renovate outdated buildings and explore the possibility of adding more buildings on campus to serve our growing student population.
What types of resources are available for students? Students have access to services in tutoring, financial aid, counseling, career planning, scholarships, and more. And it’s all free! We also have opportunities for internships, volunteering, and service learning that contribute to the community and provide workplace experience for students. ¢
What type of degree and certificate programs do you offer? MiraCosta offers a full array of credit classes in more than 70 disciplines, which can lead to associate degrees and/or transfer to four-year universities. Plus, we offer short-term certificates that prepare students for the job force or help to upgrade their skills for a better job. We also have noncredit courses and workshops, and have programs for adult high school, English as a second language, and basic skills.
What is the history/background of MiraCosta College? When was it started and what was the motivation?

hen Alexandria Miller was four years old, she took her first singing class and was hooked. “At first it was a hobby, but then I performed as a munchkin in The Wizard of Oz with Encore Youth Theatre. It was my first ever community theater show, and it forever changed my life. I knew this was what I wanted to do for the rest of my life,” revealed Alexandria. Throughout elementary, middle school, high school, and now college, Alexandria has performed in many productions, including Anything Goes, Beauty and the Beast (she played Belle), and The Beat Goes On. She currently attends Vanguard University in Orange County and is pursuing her dreams as a musical theater major. Alexandria is pouring her heart and soul into her musical theater studies. Although her schedule is hectic and admittedly a bit crazy, she loves every minute of it. “I have been given the opportunity to study all aspects of theater, including technical, performance, directing, make-up, and costume design, as well as movement and dance,” said Alexandria, who received many scholarships and awards, both from Vanguard itself and from the local community. She was also recently accepted into the International Performing Arts Institute in Germany, a rigorous musical theater program that will put Alexandria on the doorstep of Broadway in Europe. A 2013 Carlsbad High School graduate, Alexandria credits her loving parents and supportive Carlsbad community for giving her the confidence to attend Vanguard and study musical theater. She has been and continues to be an active member of the community, Name: Community: Hobbies: Favorite Spots in Carlsbad:

understanding the importance of giving back. She has performed the national anthem at the Carlsbad Police Memorial Run several years in a row, and she hopes to continue to support the event even while she is away at college. Alexandria has many other volunteer endeavors, including helping out at women’s shelters, senior centers, retirement homes, and preschools. Her dedication to community service goes back to her kindergarten days when she began her journey as a Girl Scout. “I was in Girl Scouts, Troop 1019, from kindergarten through my senior year. I completed my Gold Award, a soccer safety video, by my junior year. I am a life-time Girl Scout member,” related Alexandria proudly. Although spare time is hard to come by for this busy performer, volunteer, and college student, with any free moments she does have she enjoys camping, hiking, reading, and finding new songs to sing. “For me singing is all I really need to keep me occupied and happy,” exclaimed this enthusiastic and talented singer, dancer, and actor.

SAME DAY SMILES CAD SMILES BRINGS NEW SMILES TO PATIENTS IN JUST ONE VISIT by RANDI CANTRELL | photos by Tyler McElhaney

ddie Corales of CAD Smiles believes that a person’s smile is an important part of their personality – it can reflect their lifestyle and attitude and is often the first thing that others will notice. His passion to help others find their perfect smile began five years ago when he started CAD Smiles, a company that focuses on same-day smile makeovers. Today he works with over 200 dentists all over San Diego County who own CEREC CAD/CAM technology, and provides tooth restorations, full-mouth rehabilitations, implants, dentures, and many other services. In previous years, if crowns or dental veneers were necessary for a patient, multiple procedures and a great deal of waiting time in-between visits was inevitable. The CEREC CAD/CAM one-of-akind technology has changed these dental procedures completely. It now allows the smile designer to take digital scans of a patient’s teeth and work with them to personally customize a smile in just a few hours. “CAD Smiles is the only company in San Diego and the U.S. that offers same-day smile makeovers

with a certified technician, or smile designer, onsite,” Eddie explained. “This means that a patient can come to the dental office with a smile that is not satisfactory to them and leave with a smile that suits them.” Dr. Claudia Cortadi is one local dentist who works with CAD Smiles and the CEREC CAD/CAM technology. According to Dr. Cortadi, dentistry at its best goes beyond merely treating teeth. She explained, “Dentistry involves truly working with and communicating with people. There are few things I enjoy more than watching my patients leave the office with a brighter, healthier smile.” The atmosphere of CAD Smiles Same Day Smile Centers is similar to that of a spa rather than a traditional dentist’s office. Patients are made to feel comfortable and at ease, and more importantly, are included in the process of designing their new smile. “With our service, there are no uncertainties,” Eddie continued. “The final result is predictable because the dentist, patient, and smile designer work together in perfect synergy. We apply the principles of visual art to the composition of the customized smile to create a result
that expresses the patient’s personality and lifestyle, and ensures harmony between the restorations and the patient’s physical appearance, values, and attitude. It is a service you won’t get anywhere else.”

Broadway Under the Stars Moonlight Stage Productions Presents Broadway Musicals under the Stars at Moonlight Amphitheatre
A
ttending a Moonlight Stage Productions Broadway musical at the Moonlight Amphitheatre is a summertime tradition that has been enjoyed by local audiences for decades. “Some audience members who came to Moonlight Amphitheatre as youngsters with their parents are now bringing their own children to the theater,” shared Daniel Kays, managing director for Moonlight Stage Productions. Each summer Moonlight Stage Productions presents four Broadway musicals in the Moonlight Amphitheatre, currently the only outdoor venue in San Diego to offer such largescale, professional productions. Seeing a production at Moonlight Amphitheatre is a unique experience. The Amphitheatre is nestled into the hillside of the City of Vista’s Brengle Terrace Park, and theater-goers are encouraged to bring picnics and dine al fresco on the tiered and manicured lawns. “We open the gates 90 minutes prior to curtain to allow guests to enjoy a picnic supper outdoors, as well as take part in the social aspects of theatergoing,” said Kays. Moonlight Amphitheatre also has its own restaurant, Artisan Café,
36 • 0810Magazine.com • May | June 2015
that gives guests the opportunity to dine in a relaxed atmosphere before the production. According to Kays, with the leadership of Steven Glaudini as producing artistic director, audience attendance has increased over the last several years, as has the selection and quality of the productions. “The actors and creative teams are hired from throughout Southern California and beyond to create productions that are often hailed by critics as ‘Broadway quality,’” related Kays. In addition, when available, the Broadway sets and costumes are used for many of the musicals, and every production is fully complemented with full orchestras in the pit. Kathy Brombacher founded Moonlight Stage Productions in 1980 and the first season, consisting of two shows, was presented during the summer of 1981. At that time, Brombacher was the drama teacher at Vista High School, and her vision was to produce musical theater on a grand-scale with a live orchestra and full production values. Since then, Moonlight Stage Productions has flourished, with a reconstruction of the amphitheater in 2008-09 and the formation of a sister-

The Wild West Comes to Carlsbad FIND YOUR INNER COWBOY OR COWGIRL AT WILD WEST FEST
H
old on to your cowboy hats – the Wild West is here once again. The City of Carlsbad’s annual Wild West Fest will take place on May 16 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park and will include western-themed activities, a salsa contest, root beer tastings, pony rides, and a mechanical bull ride for kids. Admission will be free to the community but activity cards will be offered for $6 and include access to the pony and mechanical bull rides, souvenir photos with authentically dressed cowboys and cowgirls, and western-themed crafts. Root beer tastings will also be offered for $3 and participants can taste five different root beers in addition to receiving a root beer float. The salsa contest will be judged by Chili’s Encinitas and will feature prizes for salsa taste as well as table presentation in the following categories: best overall, people’s choice, best presentation, funniest presentation, best fruit salsa, hottest salsa, and most original salsa. The park was once a working rancho owned by actor, philanthropist, poet, and preservationist Leo Carrillo and is a designated California Historical Landmark. Special Events Supervisor Rachael Shay explained, “Wild West Fest is a step back in time since Leo Carrillo Ranch Historic Park was once an actual working ranch. The Wild West is something beach communities like Carlsbad don’t often get to experience. It’s a fun change of pace that also looks back at the city’s heritage.” For more information call 760-602-7519 or visit www.carlsbadca.gov/parksandrec. ¢

upporting the local community is extremely important to Roni Mayben, and through Carlsbad Causes for Community (C3) she is making a difference for the residents of Carlsbad. C3 is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that consists of 45 local businesses that contribute money, gifts, and time to bring fun-filled events to the Village of Carlsbad and raise money for many local causes. “I became involved with C3 after Deb Ferraro asked me to participate on the board. Deb was hosting donation yoga classes to raise money for local causes at her yoga studio, Carlsbad Village Yoga Co-op. I loved what she was doing and wanted to be a part of that,” revealed Roni, owner of Heritage Senior Care, a company that provides non-medical home care services for seniors. Roni is passionate about assisting smaller nonprofits that are making a direct impact on those they are serving. In addition to C3, she is actively involved with NCLGBT Resource Center as an event host, and she is a founding sponsor of the SHOW (Seniors Having One Wish) Foundation. According to Roni, her biggest accomplishment with C3 is the formation of a community spirit of giving back. The group held their annual fundraiser earlier this year and is looking forward to their next event, the 3rd Annual Carlsbad Village Scavenger Hunt on May 29. “If I could grant one wish for the Carlsbad community it would be to bring C3 to the next level.

She encourages anyone who is interested in finding out more information about becoming involved with C3 as a business or individual partner to visit www.carlsbadcauses.com. Roni has deep roots in the community, having lived in Carlsbad since 1996 and putting her two sons, who are now grown, through the Carlsbad school system. She enjoys many of the wonderful things Carlsbad has to offer, including the beach and lagoon. “My favorite place to go is the beach – south of Tamarack we have such a beautiful coastline. I enjoy kayaking on the lagoon and walking around the trails that surround the water,” related Roni, an outdoor enthusiast who loves camping, snowboarding, rock climbing, and paddleboarding. She is also a big supporter of the farmers market, stopping by every Wednesday to buy vegetables and soak up the special vibe of the event.

Art Wall Brings New Culture to Carlsbad ONGOING MURAL PROJECT WILL FEATURE VARIOUS STREET ARTISTS
L
ocal restaurant co-founder Justin Jachura and Carlsbad street artist Bryan Snyder have teamed up to bring a new ongoing art installation to Carlsbad. The project, titled Carlsbad Art Wall, will feature work from a different street artist every few months on the east wall of Señor Grubby’s in the Village area. The goal of Carlsbad Art Wall is to “serve as a conduit between aspiring artists and professional artists, to provide a platform to engage and educate the Carlsbad community in the creative act of large scale public painting, and to introduce a variety of new art and creative processes.” Justin added, “I love art, culture, and music. I think this gives Carlsbad a platform of expression outside of our city limits, and I think it’s a good way to bring attention to Carlsbad on a broader scale than just our local community, so it’s exciting to be a part of that.” Bryan is a Carlsbad native and has developed a wide range of art events, projects, and installations in the Village area. “I dedicated three years to the West Hollywood urban canvas of Melrose Ave.,” Bryan said. “In that time I met some very talented artists who all used the streets to showcase their skillful aesthetics and strong messages. To have the work of these artists in the Village is an amazing opportunity that will expose the Carlsbad community to an art scene that has already secured its place in art history.” The ongoing project started with a mural from Los Angeles street artist Bumblebeelovesyou titled “Butterflies.” As the project continues, other featured street artists will include Annie Preece and Morley.

C
lutter. It’s the bane of many homeowners. And it seems just as the clutter has been cleared, more clutter arrives to take its place. Tailored Living has been helping area homeowners rediscover their homes and fall in love with them all over again. “Clutter gets in our way of seeing our homes for all they can be,” said owner Dana Nuesca. “We can help you get a handle on your clutter and beautify your home too.” Getting started is the most difficult part. So Dana recommends starting with small tasks such as a corner or a drawer. “One task that has helped others is Toss 50, which means a homeowner will discard or recycle 50 items throughout the house during one week’s time,” offered Dana. “Get rid of broken items, discouraging items, and things that don’t work. They’re just dragging you down.” Once you clear up the clutter, know what you’re keeping and have a pretty good idea of where you’re going to keep it, Tailored Living will visit your home and design a storage solution just for you. “It’s not helpful to purchase a cookie cutter storage solution,” said Dana. “Tailored Living uses space design software so we can create a number of storage solutions and review them with the homeowners to make sure the chosen design meets their specific needs.” She added, “Once homeowners cut through the clutter, they can see the inherent beauty in their homes.” Tailored Living of North County San Diego featuring PremierGarage began operation in 2014 and is owned and operated by Escondido residents Kalani and Dana Nuesca. The company proudly serves homeowners and businesses from all over North County, offering storage solutions for garages, closets, pantries, mudrooms, home offices, and even guest rooms through complimentary in-home estimates and consultations, professional measuring, and installation.

Two Ways Homeowners Can Help Save the Environment by GLENN HOLTZ & TANYA GABRIELLA
R
ight now there are two items that come up in conversation on a regular basis: what are your thoughts on solar panels and how do we make our landscaping look nice with the shortage of water? Residential solar installations are up by 50% nationwide since 2012 according to the Solar Energy Industries Association. Our suggestion is to do your research upfront. Should you lease or buy the solar panels? This information will be very important if you decide to sell your home. The new buyer will want to know if they need to qualify to take over the current lease. What is involved with a lease transfer to a new buyer? Is there a buyout option that will need to be considered prior to selling your home? Plus many more questions. We always suggest that you do your research, ask a ton of questions, and make an educated decision. Ninety-three percent of the state of California is under a severe drought according to weekly reports from many government agencies. How can we help as homeowners? Less watering is the only answer. That is why we suggest to homeowners to research drought-resistant plants. The selection of plants available will blow your mind. Not the dry, bland desert look you immediately think of.
The greenery and bright colors will make your yard look beautiful and also save water at the same time. Everyone wins!

SNORKELING
SAN DIEGO
Snorkel into Summer and Explore San Diego's Underwater Landscape by LAINEY KRAL
S
an Diegans don’t have to travel far to discover a whole new world this summer – we live just a splash away from two unique snorkeling spots. La Jolla has something to see under the sea for novices and experts alike.
If you don’t have gear, there are plenty of local places to buy or rent from. A snorkel and mask are the basic essentials. Make sure the mask fits and feels comfortable. It should seal tightly to your face without requiring you to overtighten the strap. Optional equipment includes fins for greater speed and maneuverability, snorkeling vests for some extra buoyancy, and wetsuits for colder waters. Snorkeling novices may choose to sign up for a tour or class to get some in-person instruction. If you’re going out with just your family, you should check in with the lifeguards when you get to the beach and ask about the current water conditions. La Jolla Cove is a favorite snorkeling destination, with three distinct areas to explore. Straight out from the south end of the cove are kelp beds teaming with fish. Up the coast to the north is a series of sea caves, best visible in low tide. Advanced snorkelers can swim into the caves, but be careful of unexpected wave surges. The middle of the cove is
the most popular spot for snorkeling. The wide variety of fish are used to people and will often swim up close. Look out for the California state fish – the bright orange Garibaldi. You may also spot rays, sea slugs, urchins, or other aquatic creatures. Right down the coast is La Jolla Shores. For most of the year there’s little to see at this beach besides sand, but every summer La Jolla Shores becomes a nursing ground for hundreds of distinctively spotted leopard sharks. Unless you happen to be a small crustacean or mollusk, it’s perfectly safe to swim out among them. The visibility can be low with the waves stirring up sand, and the sharks are easiest to spot just when the visibility starts to improve. Swim straight out from The Marine Room restaurant until you reach a depth of four to five feet, then keep swimming to the left and right. Move slowly to avoid scaring them off. While the sharks can be found as early as June, their numbers will peak between August and September. ¢
