:::: FROM THE PUBLISHER Aim for the Rim I had big dreams when I was a kid. As a dreamer, I had a vivid imagination growing up. One of my favorite things to do was visualize future achievements – we’ve all done it. For example, while playing around with the basketball I would tell myself that if I made the next shot, later on in life I would become a famous rock star, or an astronaut, or a jet pilot – you get the picture. The choices were endless. Sometimes it was as simple as the girl down the street who I had a crush on would notice me. And the funny thing is that even if I missed the shot, I would simply shoot again, many times raising the stakes a bit until I made the shot. Anything was possible. Last month, a group of my ZCode Magazine co-workers and I had the opportunity to volunteer at an event at a local Boys and Girls Club. It was the first day of their month-long program (Little Jumps, Big Changes) with the focus on the importance for young community members to lead active, healthy lifestyles. On that particular day we helped out on the basketball courts – shagging balls, encouraging kids to take shots, assisting with different forms and techniques, and of course, giving plenty of high fives and fist bumps. The kids and staff of the Boys and Girls Club welcomed ZCode with open arms. We jumped right into the mix, and by the end of the event all you could see were smiles – as well as a few beads of sweat running down our faces. Volunteering our time and interacting with the kids definitely had a personal impact on each one of us. We all traded in our busy calendars for a short period of time and became kids again. It felt good. I’m not sure who actually got more out of the event – our ZCode team or the kids at the Boys and Girls Club. All I know is that for a brief moment, I had the privilege of imagining endless possibilities – taking shots and dreaming of what will become of me if I actually made the basket. I plan to keep aiming for the rim. High fives and fist bumps always brighten my day (even in the office). I still feel like a kid. I still have big dreams. Derrick Breaux, Publisher

Encinitas Historical Society Educates First Graders Special submission by ALISON BURNS President, Encinitas Historical Society

T

he 1883 Schoolhouse in Encinitas, once again, echoed to the sound of children’s laughter when first graders from the Julian Charter School – Phoenix Learning Center recently visited the oldest building in town to learn more about life at the end of the 19th century. Accompanied by their teacher, Nancy Sah, and parent volunteers, the youngsters listened intently as Lloyd O’Connell gave a brief presentation to the kids. They were amazed to see the faded photos from over a hundred years ago showing school-aged children doing craft work at their desks or singing along to a guitar at their regular Friday picnics on Moonlight Beach. Until the schoolhouse fell into disuse in 1928, every child in Encinitas from first grade through eighth was educated together in the one-room school. After a lively question and answer session, everyone walked to the historic boathouses on Third Street. These iconic structures, which have never been to sea despite their alluring starboard list, were built back in the late 1920s out of wood salvaged from a dance hall that failed to survive Prohibition. They are currently owned by the Encinitas Preservation Association and rented out as private dwellings until the EPA has sufficient funds to convert them into a living museum. Visitors are only able to view the boathouses from the exterior, but the historic 1883 Schoolhouse on West F Street is open to the public every Friday and Saturday from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Lloyd also conducts a walking tour of downtown Encinitas on the third Saturday of each month, except August, starting at the schoolhouse. Visit encinitashistoricalsociety.org for additional information. ¢

BOOKS TO LIFE Morris Pike Sails the Good Ship Literacy All Over San Diego to Deliver Books and Adventure to Kids

M

ost parents know that reading to children when they are young, and encouraging them to keep reading when they are older, is vitally important. We’re told that reading helps kids develop language skills and vocabulary, plus it opens their minds to a world they haven’t yet seen. Since the year 2000, Morris Pike of Encinitas has done more than his share of improving literacy for thousands of children all over San Diego. Morris, otherwise known as Captain Book, and his “crew” have sailed the Good Ship Literacy throughout the county doing presentations, reading, and delivering books to children who would ordinarily not have them. Morris says that teachers and school administrators contact him and his crew to request a presentation. They arrive at the school in the Good Ship Literacy (a retired medical

rescue vehicle) with the captain’s banjo, maps, puppets and books, and engage the children in an hour long adventure including songs, magic and “tales of a dangerous encounter with Billy Bones,” said Morris. “Afterwards, the crew gives each child in attendance a ‘Captain Book’ bookmark and a book to take home to ‘treasure.’” Captain Book’s alter ego, Morris, has been a member of the Kiwanis Club of Greater Encinitas for 13 years. As the club’s second president, one of his duties was to survey the community to identify needs the group could address. “Encouraging children to become successful, avid readers is a problem in every community,” he said. “Thus, I conceived our Treasure Chest Literacy Program.” He says that Captain Book’s goals are to stimulate the imaginations of children, encourage and motivate them to read, and provide a live entertainment experience. With

65,000 books given away at over 500 appearances, it appears the program is a huge success. The Captain and his crew can’t go on their missions alone – they need help. “Of course, pieces ’o eight (hard cash) are most useful,” explained Morris. “You can donate by going to www.captainbook.org, click on ‘How to Help’ button and then donate via PayPal.” An upcoming fundraiser will be at the Elks Lodge on April 20th in Cardiff. A retired theater professor, today Morris writes children’s stories, enjoys photography, woodworking, gardening and jewelry making. With four adult children, six grandchildren and two great grandkids, Morris Pike must be the most interesting (great) grandfather around. And we’re sure he can tell some fantastic stories. 

A

t age eight, Conner Annicharico may still be small, but he dreams big. He’s lived in Encinitas all his life and loves it, but a trip to Atlantis in the Bahamas when he was four seems to have sealed his fate. “He was very curious as to who owned the hotel,” shared his father, Trent, “and from there came the proclamation that he wanted to own a hotel someday.” For now, Conner attends Olivenhain Pioneer Elementary, and until they begin offering courses in business and hotel management, he makes do exceling in reading, math and P.E. Conner says his favorite subject is P.E. because he loves sports. “I like football, basketball, baseball and soccer,” he explained. “I play in the Express Soccer League, Encinitas National Little League, Encinitas Recreational Basketball League and, YMCA Friday Night Lights and flag football.” Conner’s second favorite subject is math because, he said, “I get to test my brain.” Conner is a model student. “He has been asked on a number of occasions by his teachers to help in the class by being an example for other students,” reported his father. Conner loves reading – earning OPE’s “gold medal” for reading 3,600 minutes – and writing: he has penned three books already on the “Adventures of Yellow Dog,” inspired by his own yellow lab, Charger. But Conner’s true passion is sports. “When Conner was four years old,” remembered Trent, “he would stumble into the living room rubbing his eyes and asking if we could turn on SportsCenter.” Conner claims he grew to love sports while watching his brother play. “Luke, my older brother, goes to high school and plays lacrosse and basketball,” described Conner. “Luke is nice to me. He shows me how to play a lot of sports. He shows me how to do things right.” Conner’s parents, Trent and Lisa, look forward to fanning Conner’s passion for sports and hotel ownership. In the meantime, they’ll continue playing with him at local parks, enjoying meals at his favorite restaurants, Coco’s and Islands, and boogie boarding with him at the beach.  Name: Age: School: Grade: Parents: Siblings:

Rosemary Olive Oil No-Knead

Ingredients 2 ¼ cups 3/4 cup 1/4 1 ½ tsp. 1 ¼ cup 2 Tbsp. 2 Tbsp.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13.

14.

15.

16. 17. 18.

unbleached all-purpose flour whole wheat flour instant yeast fine sea salt warm water (300 grams) extra virgin olive oil fresh chopped rosemary

Directions

Whisk dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add water and olive oil to the bowl and stir for about 1 or 2 minutes. The mixture will look shaggy but well mixed. Cover the top of the bowl loosely with plastic wrap, or place into a tub with a lid. Let sit on counter top for about 12 to 16 hours, the dough will look bubbly on the top when done rising. Adjust oven to lowest rack. Place empty bake ware with lid on the lowest rack and heat oven to 475°F. (2 ¾ quart to 5 quart bake ware.) Note: a smaller pot will result in a higher loaf. Pre-heat oven with bake ware for at least 35 minutes. Rub about two tablespoons of olive oil onto your workspace. Slowly pour the dough from the bowl on to the oiled surface, using a spatula to help it out of the bowl. Using your oiled hands, gently de-gas (also known as punching down) and stretch the dough into a rectangle. Fold the dough over onto itself about 4-6 times. You should have a nice square. Cover the dough with your work bowl and let rise for 35 minutes. When bread has risen for 35 minutes, remove the hot bake ware from the oven and set it on a cooling rack. Oil your hands and pick up the edges of the dough and bring it into the middle of the dough creating a sort of ball. It will be soft and flexible. Once you have a ball created, pick it up and place it gently seam side up, into the hot (ungreased) bake ware. Reduce oven temperature to 450°F. Cover and bake for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, take the lid off the pot and bake another 1520 minutes until the bread is well browned. (The bread is done after reaching 195-200°F.) Remove bread from the pot and let cool on a wire rack for at least one hour before slicing. The bread is best eaten the day it is made, but will last another two days, wrapped in tin foil and placed into a plastic bag. The crust will become soft after the first day. To re-crisp the crust, place the loaf into a 375°F oven for 5-7 minutes.

About the Chef Name: Kathleen Allenbach Age: 59 Family Members: Husband - Phil, Children - Diana, Allen and Lauren Community: Encinitas Hobbies/Interests: Traveling, running, reading, gardening, baking, family Favorite Local Activity: Hiking Torrey Pines and visiting the San Diego Zoo About the Recipe: I selected No-Knead Rosemary Olive Oil bread because it is delicious and so easy to make. I understand that making bread intimidates many people, but they are missing out on a wonderful way to feed their family healthy food. I hope to bring back the tradition of homemade bread.

BOOT DRIVE KEEPS IT LOCAL!

O

n Tuesday, March 12th local firefighters will take to the streets for the Burn Institute’s 14th Annual Firefighter Boot Drive. Hundreds of uniformed firefighters from fire departments all over San Diego County come together once a year for a common goal, hopping aboard their engines to meet at intersections within their communities to collect donations in their boots during the morning and evening commutes. And each year, passing motorists help to fill those boots with their spare change – ones, fives, twenties – even $100 bills. “No matter the economy or weather, San Diegans have always given generously,” said Joanie Ewing, Director of Communications for the Burn Insitute. What began more than a decade ago as a grassroots effort backed by the fire service, the Burn Institute’s countywide Boot Drive has become a hallmark fundraiser for the organization. In 2012 alone, the annual one- day event raised nearly $230,000 to support the programs and services they provide. Last year, dedicated firefighters from a record 44 departments across the county gathered at more than 100 intersections to fill their boots. “The Boot Drive has become one of the Institute’s most successful events,” said Scott Walker, Burn Institute Interim Executive Director. That success is directly attributed to the enthusiastic support of local firefighters, he added. ” The fire service really is the

backbone of this organization. As a team we can do great things for the community.” Proceeds benefit Burn Institute fire and burn prevention education programs and burn survivor support programs such as Camp Beyond the Scars for burn-injured children between the ages of five and 17. Celebrating its 27th season, the Burn Institute’s unique camp program has provided a safe place for hundreds of young burn survivors to share their experiences in a supportive camp environment. Sponsored by the San Diego–Imperial County Fire Fighters Advisory Council to the Burn Institute and the San Diego County Fire Chiefs’ Association, the Burn Institute’s 14th Annual Firefighter Boot Drive is the organization’s largest one-day fundraiser. All of the funds raised through the Boot Drive will stay in San Diego County. The top fire department from each region will win the Burn Institute’s highly-coveted bronze Boot Drive trophy.

:::: LOCAL FAMILY

True Leucadians The Berend Family Lives the Life in Leucadia

here are some families you meet who seem to epitomize the area in which they live. Meet the Berend family—quintessential Leucadians. Members of this family surf, play volleyball, skateboard, lifeguard, and jam in a band … parents and kids alike. Jeff Berend grew up in Solana Beach, but his wife Janet moved to Encinitas shortly after graduating from a Burbank, CA high school. “When I first moved down here, I lived one block from the beach,” said Janet. “I could hear the surf from my pillow when I slept at night—from Burbank to Encinitas—I was convinced I landed in heaven on earth.” Jeff and Janet met when they were both working as lifeguards in Solana Beach. “We were lucky—we got to lifeguard Swami’s and Stonesteps and back in those days there were two guards in every tower,” described Janet. “Once our lifeguard lieutenant found out we were dating he never let us lifeguard a tower together. He didn’t want us to be distracted—wanted our eyes on the water, not on each other. He was a smart man.” After graduating from college, Jeff and Janet had saved their lifeguarding money so they could move to Spain and teach English. A year later, they moved back to the area but needed a place to stay. “Luckily, our close family friends had a beat up beach cottage two blocks from Stonesteps for rent. They gave us a great deal. We moved in, helped fix it up and have lived in Leucadia ever since,” explained Janet. These days, the Berend family has two more members … 15-year-old daughter, Rell, and 12-year-old son, Ben … and none of them stray far from the water. Rell just started a Del Mar Junior Guard program last summer, where Janet also instructs. Ben plays Little League and skateboards. Father and daughter both play volleyball, mom is a master swimmer, and both parents play in a band called Super Nacho. Everyone in the family surfs. While the family shares a love of many similar activities, they all have their own outside interests as well. “We are constantly on the go, but one thing that we do every day is eat dinner together. We love to eat and cook together, and no matter how crazy our schedules, we make a real effort to sit down together after a long day and share a meal together,” explained Janet. 

Vertical is an easy to read, high interest story that appeals to teens and pre-teens (especially boys). The setting is in a town much like Encinitas and locals will certainly feel at home while reading through this page-turning novel. Janet captures the power of true friendship while speaking in a language that resonates perfectly with skateboarders and those alike.

:::: COMMUNITY STUFF 11th Annual Bike-A-Thon Raises Upwards of $47K

Delivering Trust

Nothing sums up the mission of the YMCA quite like the spirit of the annual Bike-A-Thon fundraiser event at the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA. The event celebrates healthy living, community togetherness, fun and giving back. Hundreds of spin class enthusiasts, cycling pros, Y members and friends flocked to the Y’s Mega Studio for the 10-hour studio cycling event. The west side of the Y’s facility was staged with 43 stationary bikes including an instructor at the front, silent auction tables, donated food and beverages, a health fair, decorated teammates and lots of spirit. Each team had a bike for the day and each hour they transitioned to a new rider and a new instructor. Each rider raised money before the event to support the Y’s Annual Giving Campaign to further the Y’s work in the community. The Annual Giving Campaign makes it possible for the Y to meet the community’s growing needs with enriching programs, outreach opportunities and financial assistance. Through the riders, team captains, auction bidders and everyone who participated in the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA’s Bike-A-Thon event, over $47,000 was raised towards this worthy cause.

Swim Coach Teaches Child with Spina Bifida to Swim

John Ruffu, owner and swim coach at Swim 2 John, recently taught 30-month-old spina bifida patient, Fernando Gallego, to swim. During the second week of learning to swim, Fernando learned to walk. His therapist told his mother that his swim lessons were very instrumental in him walking without crutches. Marcia Gallego, Fernando’s mother, explained, “Fernando started swimming lessons with John just after a few weeks of a brain surgery. The big surprise was that after two weeks of lessons he was swimming and also walking independently. We spent a lot time in hospitals this last summer but the end of it was a total success with this important achievement.” Over the past ten years, parents of challenged children have seen incredible advancement in their kids through a learn to swim teaching process based on multiple concepts used by special needs organizations. These concepts develop independence for children in or recovering from developmental delays. John uses these methods on every child he teaches to swim, challenged or not. You can learn more about John at www.swim2john.com.

The well seasoned staff, having served between eight and twenty-three years, recognizes that children develop at different rates and tailors the curriculum accordingly. The Academy, formerly known as The Gifted Preschool, was acquired by Bright Horizons—a leader in early education and preschool programs— in 2010. While maintaining The Gifted Preschool’s reputation for school readiness, The Academy made significant environmental and curriculum improvements.

It’s well known

know?

did you

that Encinitas is that classic California surf town with rich local history; however, the city has also made a name for itself to be a town with an impressive and thriving art scene. We talked with several local well-known artists who represent a variety of art disciplines to discuss their background and passion for being part of the Encinitas arts scene. They shared advice for those seeking to blend arts and culture into their daily lives and allowed us to learn about upcoming opportunities to appreciate the arts in the community. After gathering all the artists together at the Lux Art Institute, we were impressed with the passion they have to bring art to the community now and in the future. As Joe McNally, Grammy nominated artist and founder of The Hutchins Consort, put it so clearly, “I cannot tell you enough how wonderful it is to live and work in downtown Encinitas. I’m in “art central” every day and I just love it here. There are so many talented artists interacting and trying to make our community a better place. And they do!”

Encinitas has the 2nd highest concentration of artists who live and work in San Diego County, based on a 2011 survey conducted by the San Diego Foundation.

Performing Arts

Joe McNalley Community of residence: Downtown Encinitas Title: Artistic Director, The Hutchins Consort You have been studying music since you were eleven. What sparked your interest in the discipline? Music was always around the house – I’m the youngest of 5, all of whom played at least one instrument, and my mom had been a church organist before we moved to CA. Early influences helped inspire me and made me realize how inexhaustible the world of music and art is. So over the decades I’ve had many mentors and still do to this day.

The Hutchins Consort prides itself on being a “refreshing departure from the typical chamber music performance.” Please elaborate. With the Hutchins Consort, I have been working on re-energizing and reinventing classical music, as every generation must if the art form is to remain relevant. We endeavor to be at once educational, entertaining, spiritual and humorous.

What do you like most about being part of the Encinitas art scene? I cannot tell you enough how wonderful it is to live and work in downtown Encinitas. I’m in “art central” every day and just love it here. The arts scene here is supportive and invigorating. There are so many talented artists interacting and trying to make our community a better place. And they do!

What advice do you have for youth interested in performing arts? You can, and don’t let anyone convince you that you can’t! To master any skill takes many hours of practice and a lot of soul searching. You’ll get knocked around a bit, but if you stick with a discipline it will pay off in ways you can’t even imagine at this stage. Keep your eyes, ears and heart open. And get out there and perform!

THEATRE What is the history behind Intrepid Shakespeare Company? We were professional actors who lived in Encinitas and loved Shakespeare. We wanted to create bold, daring, fast-paced, relevant and intrepid productions of the classics that would inspire the next generation of theatre goers. Thus, the establishment of Encinitas’ first professional theatre company.

What roles do you play as co-artistic directors? We direct, act, teach, design, study and promote Shakespeare and modern classics with our hearts, imaginations and souls. We inspire our actors, designers and patrons and remind the company that a theatre is an empty box and that it’s our task to fill it with fury, ecstasy and revolution.

What do you like most about being part of the Encinitas art scene? This is such an amazing community with an eclectic collection of arts and it deserves to have a first rate, professional theatre company.

Music has been a part of my life since my early childhood, studying piano at age eight and singing in choruses throughout high school and college. Throughout my studies, my greatest inspiration has come from the singers who were immersed in storytelling – the lieder singers and others who wove drama into their singing.

The arts environment that is emerging here is very exciting, and all of us in the performing and visual arts wish to be a part of it.

I would recommend that young artists find a good teacher, school or atelier to teach them the fundamentals and guide them towards greatness.

Pacific Academy underwent the WASC evaluation process and received a six year accreditation, an honor reserved for high performing schools. Community service hours are required for graduation and enhance students’ college applications. Exploratory education takes place each Friday and may include community service projects, field trips, workshops, guest presentations, or student projects. All teachers have full teaching credentials and bachelor degrees, and many hold Masters or Doctorates in Education like Dr. Erika Sanchez, Pacific Academy’s principal, who earned a Masters and Doctoral degree in sociology with an emphasis in education. “Our ultimate aim,” stated Erika Sanchez, “is to develop ‘Global Citizens’ of the 21st century, critical thinkers [who] make choices guided by respect for oneself and others.” Character traits like responsibility or cooperation permeate the curriculum each quarter, and students who demonstrate the emphasized character trait, receive awards. Mr. Vikas Srivastava, this semester’s project-based learning facilitator, and all students collaborated and are planning a three-legged walk that pairs random students from diverse backgrounds in an effort to eliminate discrimination and stereotyping. Mr. Vikas explains, “The theory is that everyone is diverse because we all have unique stories, and if we got to know one another’s stories, we would have more understanding and compassion between us.” After participating in numerous projects like this one, it’s no surprise that Pacific Academy students become compassionate, creative, inquisitive, and responsible global citizens. 

Councilwoman Kristin Gaspar is Creating a Vibrant Future for Encinitas by linda frabl | photos by Soul of Photography

W

hen you first hear that someone has been living in Encinitas for most of her life, you might just imagine a laid-back gal who would rather catch the perfect wave than work hard for her community. Think again. City Councilwoman Kristin Gaspar, who moved to Encinitas at age five, actually credits the great small-town vibe with motivating her to continuously improve her beloved locale. Kristin admitted, “I care deeply about Encinitas. It is incredibly rewarding to know the efforts I am participating in today, create a vibrant future for our town.” Instead of asking how Kristin helps her community, you should ask how doesn’t she help her community. To begin with, she has been involved with the Encinitas Rotary Club for nine years now, and has served as its president. The Rotary supports such local services as the Community Resource Center, the San Diego Botanic Garden and the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA , as well as such international causes as building homes in Mexico, furnishing wheelchairs to the people of Malawi and helping refugees adjust to living in the United States. Kristin explained, “The Rotary Club is an enjoyable and satisfying way for everyone to serve their community and the world.” In addition, Kirstin is the president of the San Dieguito Sports Medicine & Scholarship Foundation, which employs and does fundraising for the athletic trainers programs in local high schools. She proudly stated, “We have raised several hundred thousand dollars for the schools, trainers and scholarships for student trainers.” On top of that, Kristin founded the Coast Cardiovascular Fitness Club in 2002, which provides fitness activities for seniors. She added, “Eleven years later, I still enjoy starting my Tuesday mornings leading a senior fitness walk at Swami's.” But it doesn’t stop there. Kristin is also the parent host of “My Beach Report,” a series of educational multi-media news programs for teens, documented by the non-profit video production company, PlanSea.org. “The programs feature a network of young, roving reporters who send in their videos highlighting what’s happening with the marine environment in their part of the world,” elaborated Kirstin. It’s hard to believe that Kristin is also a mother of three, as well as the CFO of her own local business, Gaspar Doctors of Physical Therapy. Considering how dedicated she is to her community commitments, Kristin said her favorite commitment is “spending quality time with my children, my husband and my family!” 

Mermaid by the Sea Kelly Halloran Brings Out her Clients’ Beauty

elly Halloran was a dermatology nurse practitioner with over 20 years of experience when her clients urged her to start her own medical spa. “It would never have dawned on me to do such a thing – to start a new business,” Kelly admitted, “because I was not a business woman. But in 2006 I decided to give it a try.” The result was Mermaid by the Sea Clinical Skin Care in Carlsbad, now reopened as Mermaid by the Sea in Encinitas. “It took all I could get and give to build a business establishment with not only panache, but with all the most current technologically safe, sound, and effective cosmetic dermatologic

procedures, treatments, and skin care products available,” explained Kelly. A self-described mermaid, Kelly’s aim is to make her clients feel as beautiful as mermaids themselves. “I think my patients like that I work with them in achieving their desired results,” she shared. “They know I will not force my ideas for beauty on them but go with their concept of beauty.” UCSD and UCLA trained, Kelly collaborates with Dr. Linda Falconio, a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Illinois who completed her family practice residency at the UCSD Medical Center. Together, they are able to offer cosmetic and medical treatments under one roof. “We

have a whole range of very effective nonsurgical means to help every cosmetic skin care problem and to meet every pocketbook,” Kelly asserted. That includes chemical peels, medical facials, microdermabrasion, fotofacials, photodynamic therapy, Portrait plasma resurfacing, fillers and volumizers, Botox, sclerotherapy for leg veins, and laser hair removal, to name a few. The results, according to Kelly’s clients, are spectacular. As Michelle B. reported, “Kelly Halloran is the best dermatologist I have ever been to. She has a great eye for cosmetic improvements.” Tiffany M. added, “I have been a client of Kelly Halloran’s for many years and I could not be more impressed by her abilities as a dermatological expert. I trust her and her artistic abilities completely and would never hesitate to refer any of my friends to her.” “Often patients’ expectations are not only achieved, they are exceeded, and many times immediately or with little downtime,” confirmed Kelly. Check out all the services she offers, along with pages of testimonials, at www.mermaidbythesea.com.

:::: HOME TIPS

DIG DEEP TIPS FOR GETTING YOUR BACKYARD BLOOMING by WYNNE LOVE

W

hile yards in southern California haven’t been buried under feet of snow all winter, the plants in them still feel the effects of lengthened days, slowlywarming temperatures, and increasing rainfall. As spring approaches, prepare your yard for that burst of new growth of flora (and fauna) that spring can bring. Healthy Roots: February is the perfect time to fertilize and amend your soil. This will leave your soil full of nutrients for your plants’ first good spring meal. Use a soil test kit or consult a local gardening store for the best fertilizers for your needs. A Strong Stem: David Ross, Senior Manager of the Walter Anderson Nursery in Poway, notes that there is no set schedule for lawn

aeration, but if you haven’t done it for a while (say, in the past two to three years), early spring is an ideal time to loosen that soil and prime the area for new growth. Now is also the time to head off weed problems with a preemergent weed killer. Spry Shoots: While it’s too soon to increase watering times, it is a good idea to check automated sprinkler schedules, especially with the increase in rainfall. Make sure palms and lawns aren’t getting too much water, but be sure not to neglect potted plants which will still need regular doses. Lush Leaves: Be on the lookout for the arrival of pests! Watch for aphids and hose them off promptly. Ross recommends using a horticultural oil spray on plants as well.

1 48• •92130Magazine.com 92024Magazine.com• •August March | September April 2013 2012 1 • 92130Magazine.com • August | September 2012

Full Flowers: Now is the time to prune. Cut back perennials, grasses, and roses now; trim shrubs and spring-flowering trees when they are ready for new growth. Sweet Fruit: Though the weather may be warming already, don’t be too eager to plant those summer vegetables – it’s still too early. In fact, there is still time to plant another round of leafy greens and root vegetables. “February is a great time to plant citrus,” added Ross. “It’s too late to plan bare-root fruit trees, but it’s the very beginning of the citrus tree season.” Not a lot of room? Try a “fruit salad” tree which can grow as many as five different varieties of citrus on one tree. Then, sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor! 

Explore All That Batiquitos Lagoon Ecological Reserve Has to Offer by jennifer frakes

Batiquitos Lagoon | At A Glance Name: Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation Nature Center Location: 7380 Gabbiano Lane, Carlsbad, CA 92011 Website: www.batiquitosfoundation.org Email: info@batiquitosfoundation.org Phone: 760-931-0800 Hours of Operation: Monday-Friday 9 a.m.-12 p.m. Weekends 9 a.m.- 3 p.m.

“T

he Batiquitos Lagoon Ecological Reserve is a North San Diego County treasure! We encourage families to visit the Lagoon and to join us in preserving, protecting and enhancing it for future generations,” exclaimed Fred Sandquist, President of Batiquitos Lagoon Foundation (BLF). Batiquitos Lagoon is a magnificent part of the North San Diego landscape that offers a Nature Center, hiking trails, and many programs for all interests and ages. Batiquitos Lagoon was created when the ice sheets of the last ice age melted and the sea level rose, flooding the valley. The creek that enters the lagoon drops its sediment when it reaches still water and the lagoon silts up. Batiquitos Lagoon would have disappeared with this natural progression, but according to Sandquist, the process of dredging enabled it to remain a flushing tidal lagoon. It is thought that the name of the lagoon, which means little watering hole, originated from the early Native Americans that inhabited the area years ago. Visitors to Batiquitos Lagoon can learn

52 • 92024Magazine.com • March | April 2013

about the history of the area, as well about local animal and plant life through many of the BLF’s educational opportunities, including docent-led walks and a summer camp series called Club Pelican. Registration for the 2013 summer camps will begin in late spring. Also coming up later in the year is the 8th Annual Kayak Batiquitos Lagoon Clean-up event. This unique and highly successful event is the only time the general public is allowed to kayak on the lagoon. Sandquist encourages everyone to consider becoming a member of the BLF, which has no requirements to join other than a genuine interest in the Batiquitos Ecological Reserve. There are various levels of membership options, as well as many opportunities to volunteer. “There are many ways that people can get more involved. We are always in need of docents to lead public and school walks, hosts to provide information to guests in our Nature Center, and people to assist in trail maintenance. There are also internship opportunities for high school and college students,” stated Sandquist. 

The BLF is funded entirely through memberships,

donations and grants and is an all-volunteer organization with no paid staff members. Those interested in volunteering in any capacity should visit www.

batiquitosfoundation.com for more information. Or better yet, come out and visit this wonderful area that is rich in flora, fauna, San Diego history, hiking trails, and more.

:::: REAL ESTATE WATCH

Investment Strategy to Protect Against a Downturn by SCOTT VOAK

I

have received several questions along the line of “What if this is just a bubble?” and “How do you know prices won’t fall again?” While I think real estate is on a fairly solid footing, there are definitely conditions in the world that could change that. Last issue I wrote about how

to protect yourself against a drop in the market for those people looking to purchase a primary residence. This issue, I want to look at the same concept for investment real estate.

For the past two years, we have been stressing cash flow to our real estate investors.

Prior to the housing crash, many inexperienced investors were willing to take on a property with negative cash flow because the market was rising so quickly that the appreciation was larger than the monthly negative. That story had a bad ending. Purchasing a property with large positive cash flow insulates an owner against the ups and downs of the market.

We have been helping investors purchase 2-4 unit San Diego property that generates

a cash-on-cash return in excess of 8% the first year. What this means is that if an investor puts

Scott Voak, MBA – Broker

$100k into a property for down payment, closing costs and a repair reserve, the first 12 months of ownership should yield $8k of positive cash flow after all expenses (including mortgage) are

CA DRE #01153157 10815 Rancho Bernardo Rd #390 San Diego, CA 92127 (888) 311-6311 Scott@VoakHomes.com

paid. In some of the 4-plexes, the cash flow is still positive when one unit is vacant.

The importance of positive cash flow cannot be overstated. For example, if you were

to invest $100k in the property above, you could apply the positive cash flow to early principle

payments and have the loan paid off in 15-16 years (if you do not increase rents at all). In that case, your initial equity investment would increase as the property is paid off to about $350k

(the initial purchase price) if there is no inflation. Even if property values fall 25% in 15 years,

your $100k would grow to $262k – not bad in a down market and only possible because positive cash flow lets you hang onto a property through tough markets.

Next issue, I will look at marketing strategies to create an auction environment when

selling your home. ¢

Scott Voak, the top selling agent since 2008 (data from SANDICOR MLS as of 11/9/2012) and the host of Real Estate Matters on AM 1450 at 6 p.m. weeknights, provided this information. Email him to subscribe to his weekly real estate newsletter – Monday Morning Coffee.

Sustainable Homecoming: Returning Veterans Are Getting Schooled in the Local Organic Agricultural Industry by KATHY LOY

F

or some veterans returning home and looking for a job outside of military service, employment prospects can be bleak. The current economy is not as strong as it was for vets returning from previous wars, and the unemployment rate for veterans is twice the national average. The Veterans Valor Fund strives to provide programs in the agricultural industry, focusing on organic and locally sold produce and agricultural products, in order to assist needy or disabled veterans in California. These programs can be tuition grants, training programs, business grants and loans or funding for greenhouses. 4S Ranch resident and Treasurer of the Veterans Valor Fund (VVF), Daron Edwards, explains that the VVF “exists to support active duty and retired military individuals getting trained, educated and properly certified in the sustainable agricultural industry. This will enable them to establish their own business so they can get on their feet financially.” He and the other founders of the VVF got the idea from a program that started in Escondido called

60 • 92024Magazine.com • March | April 2013

Archi’s Acres, Veterans Sustainable Agriculture Training program which is an “entrepreneurial incubator” for transitioning veterans. Archi’s Acres has trained over 100 veterans for careers in sustainable agriculture and other sectors in the food supply chain. Daron, a Financial Advisor with Wells Fargo Advisors in Rancho Bernardo, says that providing veterans this kind of help has its benefits. “Giving back, in a tangible way, to these brave men and women warriors who have risked their lives to secure our freedom and seeing them discover the possibilities of being their own boss and being financially independent is rewarding,” said Daron. “As is having a way to encourage and support them in chasing their dream. Coming from the financial background of investments and money management it is important for me to participate in guiding these men and women into sustainable careers. Risk is mitigated with proper training and guidance.” The VVF is a non-profit organization that wishes to partner with individuals and

organizations that want to take part in helping more veterans make a smooth transition to financial independence. Recently, three San Diegans in the auto industry sponsored students to go through a sustainable agricultural program: Joe Allis (Porsche), George Athan (Audi), and Jason Puga (Land Rover) organized by Janet Lawless Christ of Coldwell Banker in Rancho Santa Fe.
