:::: FROM THE PUBLISHER A Celebration of Life As we make our way into the new year, I have realized that it may be just as much of a challenge to look forward into 2012 as it is a struggle to look back. You see, 2010 and 2011 were – without a doubt – the most impactful two years of my life. Professionally, exciting and rapid developments occurred with the growth of Susco Media and its group of publications. The goal to push the envelope and continue to publish local magazines “that people want to read” – which happens to be our company motto – challenged me at levels that proved to be extremely rewarding. However, I honestly feel that all challenges pale in comparison to what an individual and a family goes through when they encounter a “great love” loss. A great love can be a mother. A great love can be a spouse. It can be a sister or a best friend. Regardless of the title, a great love is someone that you care for deeply and respect on all levels. Someone that you unconditionally love. Someone that unconditionally loves you. On August 9, 2010, I lost a great love – I lost my mother in a tragic automobile accident. When a life of a dear loved one is cut short unexpectedly, it rocks the inner sole of your very existence. Your passion for life is tested. Your character is challenged. Grieving the loss of a great love is a long and complex process. Life goes on – but life is different. I spent the first year after my mother’s passing crossing milestones such as celebrating
“first” holidays, kids’ birthdays, anniversaries, Mother’s Day, my father’s birthday, and perhaps the most difficult, my mother’s birthday and the one year anniversary of her death (which are only twelve days apart). I realized that everyone handles a great love loss in their own very personal way. There is no secret formula or universal solution to overcome such a loss. It takes work, passion, strength, and an awareness of the magnitude of the situation in order to begin the healing process. Last year, a person offered me some advice. She said that as time passes and I continue to spend time thinking about my mother (commonly referred to as grieving), I will begin to focus more on all of the great things that she brought to our lives, all of the happy times we experienced, and all of the love that she shared with us. The sadness and sorrow will eventually begin to fade. The transition from mourning my great love loss will be replaced with the celebration and admiration of her life. The sadness will eventually turn to happiness. The transition is beginning to take place. Although it is difficult to hold back the occasional tear, I find myself smiling more times than not when I think about the years that we were fortunate enough to share with her. We were truly blessed to have her be a part of our lives. Her guidance, her character, her passion, her family values, and her unwavering dedication will forever flow through the veins of our family. She was a great parent and advisor. I aspire to be the type of parent that my mother was to us. My heart goes out to everyone that has lost a loved one. Celebrate their life every chance that you get, and they will forever live within YOU.

ome people move to a new community and are content to sit back and enjoy what it has to offer. Others join a community, get involved, help improve it and make it a better place for people to live. The latter describes Chuck Cross. Cross moved to Poway 27 years ago and he got involved. Starting with the Poway Youth Sports Association, he helped to identify the long term needs of children’s recreational activities. Then, as part of the Parks and Recreational Advisory Committee for eight years, Cross worked with the city and school district to make sure the available facilities were being optimized for youth sports groups. These days, Cross volunteers with the Poway Neighborhood Emergency Corps (PNEC). Over the last few years, Poway has endured several major emergencies including wildfires and earthquakes. He says the goal of the Emergency Corp is “to make our city not only more prepared for emergencies but to increase our involvement in our neighborhoods.” Cross notes that Poway needs a person from each neighborhood to be trained and ready to lead their area in times of emergency. He says some neighborhoods still need leaders. A great way to get involved is to attend the next PNEC meeting on February 2nd or go to 14

powaynec.com for more details. Cross’s other passion is the Poway-Midland Railroad, which has been delighting kids and adults alike in Poway for a long time. “The railroad is a unique joint venture of a non-profit group and the City of Poway to preserve history and make it come to life,” Cross said. The volunteer group currently plans to restore a 1906 San Francisco cable car and to enhance the depot store, ticket office and museum displays. Cross, his wife Mary and their two sons, Richard and Gary, made Poway their home because of its “unique topography, open spaces and great sense of community.” When he isn’t volunteering his time, Cross enjoys music. “I am a very amateur musician. I like to say I play with guitars. Saying I play them would be an exaggeration.” He also enjoys reading about history, working on machinery and solving problems. He says “The level of involvement his favorite thing about the Poway Community is “the of citizens across all lines level of involvement of makes [Poway] a great citizens across all lines to make this a great place to place to live.” live.” Clearly, Chuck Cross ~ CHUCK CROSS does his part to make Poway a great place to live. ¢ February | March 2012

Generous Donation Brings Neighborhood Healthcare to Poway Unified School District Community by JENNIFER FRAKES
T
he purchase of land for a Neighborhood Healthcare community health center in the Poway Unified School District (PUSD) community was made possible thanks to a generous donation by Alan and Debbie Gold, lifelong residents of Poway. The clinic will be located at 13010 Poway Road, next to the Salvation Army. The one-story, 8,500 square foot center will have 15 exam rooms, and according to Connie Burke, Director of Philanthropy for Neighborhood Healthcare, will provide medical care for approximately 7,500 children and adults in its first year of operation. “A capital campaign is currently underway to raise the $3 million dollars needed to break ground on the health center,” says Burke. For the past 15 years, community and healthcare leaders have been aware of a growing need for a non-profit community health center to serve those living and working in the PUSD community. “An emergent patient population
facebook.com/92064magazine
consists of those who have lost their jobs due to the economic crisis and are looking for the first time to a community health center for their health care,” says Burke. Children within this population are especially affected, as unmet basic health needs can become severe obstacles to a child’s learning and growth. “I am glad and excited that Neighborhood Healthcare will be an organization that I can refer our students and families to when faced with a lack of basic medical care,” says Roger Coloma, a counselor at Bernardo Heights Middle School. The center will provide primary health care for patients of all ages and will offer specialized programs in areas such as prenatal care, chronic disease management and older adult services. “Neighborhood Healthcare accepts Medicare, Medical and many other forms of insurance. We also offer services on a sliding fee scale, based on income, for patients without health insurance,”

says Burke. Alan Gold, who is Chairman and CEO of BioMed Realty Trust, a national company with corporate headquarters in Rancho Bernardo, is happy to be a part of something so positive for the PUSD community and encourages other local businesses and families in the PUSD to help raise the $3 million dollars needed to build the center. Alan and Debbie’s gift for the purchase of the land was made in honor of Alan’s late parents, Martin and Delia Gold. “My parent’s legacy will live on in a community they called home for nearly 50 years. Bringing a non-profit community clinic for those who live and work in the PUSD is a great opportunity to reshape healthcare for generations to come,” says Gold. ¢

country road trip in 2010. His own school experiences inspired his fourth book, Jake Peterson and His Not So Secret Admirer. After sharing the book with his classmates, they began discussing the idea of turning it into a movie. ”I had always wanted to make a movie, but my dad would say it was a lot of work,” remembers Jarod. “This time he said that if I was willing to do the work, write the screenplay, cast the characters and direct, then I could make the movie.” It was a busy summer, but Jarod made it happen. By fall, he premiered the 64-minute feature to friends and family. But he didn’t stop there. “Not wanting the project to end,” said Jarod, “I submitted proposals for making my movie into a fundraiser.” Last fall, Jarod got permission to show his movie as an opener for Puss in Boots at the UltraStar Cinemas in Poway to raise money for a digital library at his school. On November 5, 2011, “over 200 people attended and I made over $800 for our school.” Jarod continues his support by donating 10% of all net proceeds from his online book sales to the school through March, 2012. You can find Jarod’s books and learn about his newest projects on his google website and on Amazon. And if you see him around the neighborhood, you just might be able to get an autograph. ¢

Local band Sleepless Pacific is pursuing big dreams

ust over a year ago, a group of four students at Poway High, Esteban Cervantes (18), James Bishop (17), Taylor Eldreth (18) and Robin Morris (16), came together to compete in the annual “Battle of the Bands” competition. When the school unexpectedly canceled the competition, they decided to continue playing together to see where their music would go. They quickly found that they all loved playing together and before they knew it they were writing original songs and lining up gigs. With their first single named “Sleepless” and their proximity to the ocean, the group came up with the name Sleepless Pacific. However, according to the band, the name holds a deeper meaning to each of them, but they like to leave it open for interpretation by their fans. (All members of the band collectively contributed to the information contained in this article.) The band considers itself a rock/alternative band but says that they are influenced by a wide range of genres including blues, funk, rock and punk. “Our goal is to make music that uplifts, and inspires people to see the world through new eyes. We love making music and we will continue to do so for as long as we can. We are fortunate that we’re all friends off-stage and often hang out together, even when we’re not working.” Although they sometimes play covers of other bands, most of the time they perform their own original music written by Bishop and Cervantes. A fifth member, Logan Nelson (18), recently joined the band and is also writing songs. Sleepless Pacific has already performed at a number of venues, with their favorites being the San Diego County Fair, The Coach House in San Juan Capistrano, the Poway Rodeo, Poway Winderfest, the Epicentre and Queen Bee’s. As for the future, the band has been recording at a studio in Los Angeles and plans to release their debut album in 2012 (Bishop’s senior project at Poway High.) Also in the works is a benefit concert, new songs, music videos and other shows in Southern California. ¢

ome of Mickey Cliver’s favorite past times were spent in the kitchen with her mom. “I loved cooking with mom as a child, watching her try out new recipes” says Mickey, 39, of Poway. Now, she watches cooking shows and discovers new kitchen tips and recipes to cook for her family of four along with her sister-in-law, niece and nephew, with whom she resides. “I share these spiced sweet potatoes as a favorite because it’s simple and adds a slight twist on a classic dish that is used in most large, special occasion meals.” Mickey takes an interest in searching for new recipes online or seeing how she can improve old ones to make them that much better. Mickey moved to San Diego from Wisconsin three years ago to attend UCSD. When she isn’t discovering and trying out new recipes, you can find her and her dog, Jessie, at the local Dog Park or lending her hand to assist foster children in the area. ¢

As for Vitalityweb.com, Inc., Tom started that venture in 1997 as a side business while he was building his patient list at Mission Valley Chiropractic Center. According to Julie, Tom had just graduated from Los Angeles School of Chiropractic and was looking for ways to provide health-related products to his patients. “Now, twelve years later, Vitalityweb.com, Inc. has over 20 employees, two showrooms and two warehouses and ships ergonomic and personal comfort items throughout North America,” says Julie. In 2003, Tom relocated his business and his personal residence to Poway. Julie moved to the community in 2006, shortly before they got married. “We chose to get married in our backyard overlooking Poway – it was an amazing day and a priceless location,” says Julie. Julie and Tom love the small town feel of the Poway community and have spent a great deal of time exploring Poway’s many trails and parks. Both enjoy snowboarding during the winter months and head to the Colorado River for water sports once the weather starts warming up. “We look forward to teaching the kids to snowboard and water ski once they are old enough,” says Julie. ¢

Nextdoor - a way to build stronger and safer neighborhoods by ZEENA GREGG
P
oway residents now have access to a brand new technology that allows individual neighborhoods to stay connected. “Nextdoor is a social network for residents to communicate online with neighbors in a private website designed to build stronger communities,” said Merrilee Boyack, City Council Liaison for the Poway Neighborhood Emergency Corps (PNEC - www.powaynec.com). “Topics of discussion are as varied as local events, school activities, plumber and babysitter recommendations, disaster preparedness, recent crime activity, upcoming garage sales, or even lost pets.” Launched nationwide in October of 2011, Nextdoor is free for neighborhoods and its residents.

:::: COMMUNITY STUFF PHS Grad Nite One of Last to Stay on Campus
Poway High School (PHS) is one of the last schools in Poway Unified School District to keep Grad Nite on campus. Grad Nite is an important event designed to keep students safe and off the roads on graduation night when many tragic accidents occur. Most of the other high schools in the district have slowly moved their Grad Nite events off-campus – primarily due to the labor and expense involved. “It takes an incredible amount of time and money to plan an event of this size,” said Pat Harrison, PHS Grad Nite Chair. “We need the support of the entire community to make this a successful event – from volunteering at the construction site to donating prizes and underwriting expenses.” Volunteers are needed to move construction materials on Mar. 24. “There are 800 panels so we need as many hands as possible! Anyone interested in helping should meet at 8 a.m. in the PHS south parking lot.” In addition, donations of any kind are appreciated. All items should be marked “Grad Nite” and dropped off in the school office. For more information on how you can help, please contact Pat Harrison at patharrison10@gmail.com or 858-231-5973.

play ball! poway’s two little leagues are ready for the first pitch
W
ith Spring readily approaching, we’re reminded of a few things. Fresh flowers, finally cleaning out the garage, and, of
course, Little League Baseball. As Poway’s two independent leagues are preparing for the upcoming season, we talk with league presidents John and Jack about the history, future and philosophy of youth sports in Poway.
Poway American Little League President Rick Sidley with Ethan, Camden and Jake
poway american Q&A with PALL President Rick Sidley
What is the history behind Poway American Little League?
Poway American Little League is celebrating its 51st year. The league started the same year Poway High School opened. It is the original league in Poway. Some years ago, as the population of Poway grew, the league the league became too large and new boundary maps were drawn, creating Poway American and Poway National Little leagues. Poway American is primarily the South East part of the city while Poway National is the North West. Poway American is currently an ALL volunteer league. We provide a safe and entertaining environment for more than 475 youths each year to play baseball. The league is run per the Little League Operations Manual and our bylaws. A board of directors of 12 to 14 volunteers, plan, organize, and make decisions with what is in the best interest of the players. The board meets one time per month though-
out the year. About one third of the board turns over each year. We are very proud of the fact that we have become and remain an all volunteer league. This allows us to keep our registration costs to the players and their families as reasonable as any league in the city. It also makes for a great time on the field. Families get involved volunteering in the snack shack, umpiring, with field maintenance and anything the players need to be safe and have fun.
What is the makeup of the 2012 Poway American Little League?
This year we will field teams to accommodate over 400 players from age 4 to 18. Each team usually has 12 player and we will have 30 to 34 teams. The regular season will run from March to June, each team with

play 20 games. After the regular season is over we hold a playoff tournament for the competitive, Minor B, Minor A, Majors, Junior and Senior Leagues. The winner of the tournament for Minor A and Majors will play one game against Poway National Little League for the city championship.
What is the traditional Little League Season for Poway American Little League? Tryouts start the 2nd week in January, Teams are formed by the end of January and practices will start by February 1st. Opening day will be March 3rd. We do not play games on either weekend of the holiday weeks for PUSD and we play a 20 game season ending in the first week in June. All Stars will start after the season ends and a team can advance and play thoughout the summer. The Little League World Series is in August.
What is the goal of the Poway American Little League organization as a whole?
PALL’s goal is to provide a safe, fun, and educational experience for each of our players. At the end of each season I ask all of my players “Do you want to play next year?” if they answer “yes” coaches and the league have done their job. We also work to be sure the families have an enjoyable experience.
Are there any changes this season that
players need to be aware of?
In my opinion, the changes made to the Little League rules will not have a significant impact on the game this year.
What do the League registration fees cover?
Registration fees cover the majority of our operating budget. In order to simplify, this budget can be broken down into 4 more significant areas in order of the funds spent. Uniforms, baseballs/ equipment, field maintenance and pictures.
How does a business or family sponsor a team?
We have a sponsorship coordinator on our board that coordinates these efforts, this year it is Jovan Gonzalez. If you visit our website you can find the sponsorship forms and Jovan’s contact information.
Why/How does the Poway American Little League run such an organized program?
Our program runs well due to the dedication of all of the volunteers in our league. This is from our board members to coaches and parents who step up and keep the snack shack staffed, games umpired and fields in shape. The board has done an excellent job of learning from our mistakes and continuing to make decisions based on a simple philosophy, “what is in the best interest of the players”.
Does Poway American Little League hold any fundraisers? We do have one fundraiser each year. Players sell a box of candy bars and the proceeds benefit the league.
What is the biggest challenge the Poway American Little League faces?
Our biggest challenge is the shrinking number of players participating in the league each year. I believe is this a result of many factors having to do with everything from the changing demographics in the community to competing with other sports for players.
Are there any new developments community members should be aware of that will impact the season?
We do not anticipate any changes or problems this year. We are resurfacing and improving the fields and will hopefully be hosting an All Star tournament this year.
What is the most unique thing about Poway American Little League compared to other programs?
We, as a board, have worked very hard to maintain our league as an all volunteer organization, in the spirit outlined by Little League International. I believe this has helped us maintain a balanced budget while keeping our league fees low compared to other leagues.
poway national Q&A with PNLL President John P. Riley
What is the history behind Poway National Little League?
Poway National Little League was established in 1975 when Little League Headquarters determined that the growth of the Poway community required splitting Poway Little League into two leagues. Poway National has played their games at Pomerado Elementary School since the early 1980s.
What is the makeup of the 2012 Poway National Little League? 25-30 teams, 325-350 players, 20+ games per season plus playoffs.
What is the traditional Little League Season for Poway National Little League?
Traditional Spring Regular season and playoffs Feb-May. Poway City Championship takes place the first week of June, All Stars from mid June through July 34

and a Fall Ball season from September until November.
What is the goal of the Poway National Little League organization as a whole?
From the PNLL Constitution “The objective of the PNLL is to firmly implant in the children of the Poway community the ideals of good sportsmanship, honesty, loyalty, courage, respect of authority, so that they may become well adjusted, stronger and happier children who will continue the development of their mental and physical skills and grow to become good, healthy and trustworthy citizens.”
Are there any changes this season that players need to be aware of?
On February 4th we will be organizing a 5K Walk-aThon and Skills Contest fundraiser. The Skills Contest will feature a Home Run Derby, throwing accuracy contests, base running contests and more. The league will also be organizing additional contests, activities and special events throughout the season to make the ballpark experience even more special. Little League Headquarters has made some slight changes to their eligible bats rule (see www.pnll.org for details).
What do the League registration fees cover?
Uniforms, field maintenance, umpires, trophies, equipment, lights, utilities, and other administrative expenses. Registration fees cover approx 38% of these expenses, the remainder is covered by sponsorships, fundraisers, and snack shack.
How does a business or family sponsor a team?
We welcome Poway businesses and families to help support the league. Their donation helps cover the core expenses of the league and gives the league the financial flexibility to offer scholarships to families with special financial needs. Your sponsorship helps you build your business through a deeper connection to your community.
Why/How does the Poway National Little League run such an organized program?
Poway National Little League President John P. Riley with Trevor, Everett and Miles
Are there any new developments community members should be aware of that will impact the season?
We are not planning any new construction at the complex, but we are planning many new activities, contests and special events to make the overall ballpark experience more special.
What is the most unique thing about Poway National Little League compared to other programs?
Our key differentiating factor is the tremendous quality of our fields which gives a “major league” experience for our players. Poway National invests approx $46,000 per year in the ongoing maintenance and renovation of our fields under the direction of Petco Park/Padres Groundskeeper Luke Yoder, making them one of best fields in Southern California.
Is there anything else you would like the readers of 92064 Magazine to know about PNLL?
We are so thankful to our partners at Pomerado Elementary and the Poway Unified School District for our relationship that provides quality facilities for the kids and families of Poway. We see Poway National Little League as a community asset that must be preserved and enhanced for the families, businesses and community partners in our fine city.

Our league is blessed with so many community volunteers that donate their time and money to make this league run smoothly. The legacy of previous board of directors has built an infrastructure that new volunteers can easily add value to.
What is the biggest challenge the Poway National Little League faces?
Changing demographics in Poway, a multitude of new recreational sports and travel sports programs, and economic factors have impacted PNLL’s registration numbers. We continue to offer financial scholarships to families in need. In addition, we are working closely with our travel baseball partners to make Little League and travel baseball a value-add, non-competitive relationship. facebook.com/92064magazine

Fifth Graders Ride from River to Riptide by WYNNE LOVE
W
hile most 5th graders look forward to relaxing on spring break, there are some who choose to spend their week an altogether different way. The Ride Across California, or RAC, is a week-long, 370-mile bike ride for ambitious 5th graders. Dubbed River to Riptide, the trek starts with riders dipping their back tires in the Colorado River in Yuma, Arizona, and ends when they reach the Pacific in Carlsbad. A bike tour and a camping trip rolled into one, the ride generally attracts around seventy 5th graders, with another thirty to forty parents and siblings acting as support drivers along the way. “The mission of the Ride Across California,” explained longtime coach and volunteer coordinator Gary Rossi, “is to show 5th graders that when they establish a goal, develop a plan, and then carry out a plan they can accomplish anything.” Former 5th grade teacher Dennis Bueker and his principal Mike Fickel at Deer Canyon Elementary started the ride in 1991. “They thought this would be a great project as a coming of age for 5th graders as they prepare to go to middle school,” said Rossi. The RAC was inspired by the book, Hey Mom, Can I ride my bike across America?, by
facebook.com/92064magazine
John Seigel Boettner, which Bueker still reads to participants around the evening campfires. Now heading into its 22nd year, the tour has become a tradition for families over the Poway Unified School District spring break. Some participants start training as early as September for the spring tour. Riders must join the Rancho Family YMCA Bike Club and make use of their extensive training program in order to log 300 miles of biking, including two challenging Escondido rides, before the RAC. “Sometimes there is nothing but sand, road, wind, and cactus,” said Rossi. Tackling 30–50 miles a day, rides can get long and tedious, but no one quits, and no one’s left behind. Families camp each night, gathering around the campfire and enjoying meals provided by the support teams and other volunteers along the route. “When they get to the beach and see the Pacific Ocean,” said Rossi, “they are all smiles since they now know they can accomplish any goal that they put their mind to.” Sound exciting? Registration for the April 1–7 ride closes March 12th. For more information, call the Rancho Family YMCA at 858-484-8788. ¢

hen Jennifer Richards first opened the doors of Poway Pilates in 2007, she never imagined that some of her very first clients would still be with her today. “We have an extremely devoted roster of clients,” says Richards. Located on Midland Road in the heart of Old Poway Village, Poway Pilates is a contemporary Pilates studio that focuses on the mind and body connection between balance, strength and grace. According to Richards, the studio is designed to be a stress-free environment where clients can unwind from the day with an energetic workout. “Poway Pilates is focused on wellness and creating a space where clients feel comfortable to challenge their limits and themselves,” says Richards. Poway Pilates follows the teachings of Joseph Pilates, and Richards and her staff are committed to helping their clients understand these principles. According to Richards, the following Pilates’ principles are integral to quieting the mind to focus on the body: concentration, control, core, fluidity, precision and breath. “We include every aspect of [Pilates’] method in order to meet the fitness goals of our clients. We provide cutting-edge training and exercise programs that are safe, effective and functional. We feel that the health and condition of our bodies is of utmost importance if we wish to live life in the best way possible,” says Richards. Richards, who is a certified Pilates instructor and personal trainer, has taught traditional Pilates and Pilates mat classes for over 10 years. Her philosophy is to provide straight-forward, time efficient workouts with logical and therapy-related evaluations. Richards and the other instructors at Poway Pilates have a great deal of experience and knowledge in the method of Pilates and are prepared to work with a broad range of body types and physical abilities and limitations. “Our certified instructors are expected to apply the knowledge of basic movement science through the study of anatomy, kinesiology and physiology. [They] provide custom-designed workouts to educate students through imagery, cuing and needed corrections,” says Richards. According to Richards, Poway Pilates is dedicated to providing personalized attention to each client in a positive and nurturing environment. Richards and her staff follow four key operating principles: be positive, make sessions enjoyable, take a personal interest in each client and hone in on your teaching skills. Poway Pilates offers private, semi-private, small group training and equipment classes. Classes are priced individually and no membership is required. “My goal is to continue the path of integrity that Joseph Pilates has presented and to encourage others to continually improve their lives, and in turn, the lives of those around them through living a positive, healthy lifestyle,” says Richards. ¢

High Notes for Poway High Choir
T
he Poway High choral program is one of the most revered and successful in California. Nancy Gray, award-winning choral director, leads two women’s choirs and two mixed choirs at Poway High, as well as a program at Twin Peaks Middle School. Poway High currently has 19 students representing the school in the Southern California Vocal Association (SCVA) Honor Choir and 16 students in All-State Choir, both advanced audition ensembles. “Most schools have one or two representatives,” explained Gray. “Having this many students accepted reflects the quality of the program and the depth of the students’ talent.” In addition to school concerts, the high school choirs participate in various music festivals throughout the year. The advanced choirs have also traveled to New York, where they performed at Carnegie Hall. According to Gray, they almost always return with Superior
facebook.com/92064magazine
rankings. “Attending festivals is a great learning experience and it’s really inspirational,” said Nicole Oslance, member of the advanced mixed choir, Die Lieders. But choir is about more than just learning to sing. “Choir has had a huge impact on me as a person,” said Laura Fitzgerald, choral program
vice president. It is where students enjoy music and also make lasting friendships with a diverse group of members. “You have athletes, theatre, band kids; people from every part of school working
February | March 2012
together. I’ve made so many great friends,” said Die Lieders member Tyler Ulrich. He pointed out that a student does not have to come from a musical family to succeed. Gray’s main goals for students are to improve musicianship and inspire personal growth, but the time spent preparing for their performances also builds relationships. “[The students] come into choir as individuals, work together in class as a team, and leave as a family,” said Gray. Their busy schedule means there are many opportunities to hear the choirs in action. In February and March alone, the musical “Bye Bye Birdie” premieres February 2nd and 3rd, they participate in a California Music Educators Association (CMEA) Festival on Mar. 19th, and they perform at the Festival Concert on Mar. 20th in the Performing Arts Center. ¢ Lisa O’Brien is senior at Poway High School.

Poway Performing Arts Company: An Award-winning Community Theatre Company Right in Your Backyard by JENNIFER FRAKES photos by Zeena Gregg Photography
T
he history of the Poway Performing Arts Company (PowPAC) – Poway’s one and only community theatre – is truly a grassroots tale. In 1979, the city of Poway needed to raise money to establish the Poway Fire Department’s paramedic program. That spring, some civic-minded residents put together a vaudeville show, the first Firemen’s Follies. It was such a success that a second show was held on in 1980. In 1981, several of the participants formed PowPAC. “PowPAC is a non-profit community theatre dedicated to staging inexpensive, quality entertainment,” says Lynne Wolsey, PowPAC’s Publicity Manager. In 2007, Wolsey responded to call for volunteers after seeing a PowPAC performance. She has been co-producing and producing shows ever since. Wolsey recently stepped up to fill the role of Publicity Manager. “PowPAC should be a household name, but sadly, it’s not. My hope is to change that by getting the word out. I also hope to significantly expand our subscriber list,” says Wolsey. PowPAC is located in the heart of Poway at 13250 Poway Road on the second floor of the Lively Center. It is funded through ticket sales and subscriptions, donor support, and a Community Enhancement Grant from the San Diego County Board of Supervisors. Not an organization to forget its roots, PowPAC is committed to giving back to the Poway community. PowPAC members have set up a scholarship for drama students at three local high schools. PowPAC also contributed to the establishment of the Poway Center for the Performing Arts. 44

A
growing number of people are looking to holistic methods for maintaining their health. Dr. Kelly Austin, a naturopathic doctor, and her colleagues at California Natural Health are there to help. “We believe that the 21st century requires a different breed of health practitioner,” says Austin. “Naturopathic doctors practice truly integrated medicine. They are the only primary care doctors who are clinically trained in both natural and conventional medicine.” At their Bernardo Plaza Court location, Dr. Kelly Austin, along with Kelly Mangan, licensed acupuncturist, and Chris Cravens, certified massage therapist, offers patients a wide variety of treatments, including traditional Chinese medicine, herbal medicine, hormone therapy, lifestyle counseling, homeopathy, chiropractics, weight loss counseling, physical medicine, nutrition, and pharmacology. In addition to acupuncture, Kelly Mangan is trained in oriental massage, acupressure, moxibustion, cupping, breathing techniques, nutrition, diet, and herbs. Chris Cravens also employs a variety of techniques including deep tissue massage, Swedish massage, yoga, reiki, craniosacral therapy, meditation, and aromatherapy. Dr. Austin attributes California Natural Health’s success to their comprehensive services, thorough followup, and individualized treatment plans. “We provide patients with a superior experience, treating the whole 46

They promote weight loss through diet and lifestyle changes as well as M.I.C.

Demystifying the College Athletic Recruiting Process by JENNIFER FRAKES
F
or student athletes and their parents, the college athletic recruiting process can be confusing and filled with misconceptions. However, once armed with the basics, the process is much easier to navigate and all potential opportunities can be explored. According to David Batzer, a local San Diego area scout for the National Scouting Report, the most important factor to increase a student’s chances of obtaining scholarships and/or playing opportunities at the collegiate level is academic performance. “Academics open most doors and put you in the best position for your life and career after college. It will also give you a leg up in the recruiting process since coaches will know you are intelligent and hard-working,” says Batzer. While academic performance is crucial, so is being proactive and starting early. “The biggest misconception is that ‘If am
50
92064 Magazine
good enough, they will find me.’ While this may be true for the highest level Division I athletes, it does not necessarily hold true for the majority of athletes,” says Batzer. Batzer recommends that student athletes and their parents let college coaches know about their abilities early on in their high school career. “Most Division I programs are currently recruiting athletes for 2013 and beyond,” says Batzer. Another common misconception is that if an athlete is recruited, they will go to school for free. While this may be true for the most elite Division I athletes in revenue generating sports, such as football and basketball, most athletes receive partial scholarships. “Division III, for example, does not give out athletic scholarships. Most student athletes at Division III schools get merit scholarships for academics and/or financial aid,” says Batzer.
February | March 2012
For student athletes wishing to compete in the NCAA at Division I or II schools, it is essential that they register with the NCAA Eligibility Center. The center is the authority that certifies an athlete eligible to compete at the completion of their senior year of high school. According to Batzer, “If you are not certified, you do not compete, no matter how good of an athlete you are.” Batzer offers one final piece of advice for student athletes who are thinking about entering the college athletic recruiting process. “You need to ask yourself, ‘Is this a school I can see myself attending even if I can’t play my sport?’ You need to pick a school that will offer you the best chances of pursuing your lifetime goals.” ¢ David Batzer is the local area scout for the National Scouting Report. He assists athletes in their pursuit of college scholarship opportunities.

Gary George Joins the 92064 Magazine Team
G
ary George is amongst the newest members to join the Susco Media team. In his position as Senior Marketing Consultant, he will primarily work with local businesses within the communities of 92128 and 92064. His goal is to assist them with their marketing platforms by utilizing the Susco Media family of magazines and other multi-media products and services. “We are excited to have Gary join the team,” said Publisher Derrick Breaux. “His history and familiarity with the local community, extensive sales experience, and overall understanding of the marketing concept makes him a tremendous asset to our company and our advertising partners.” Gary moved to the area nearly 10 years ago. “I did some research and determined that the Poway School District was where I wanted my daughter to attend. She graduated from RBHS in 2010 and now attends SFSU seeking a dual major in English and Broadcast Media,” says Gary. Over the last decade, Gary has worked in advertising sales for a number of local print publications including The North County Times, The San Diego Business Journal and most recently, The Pomerado Newspaper Group. “I was attracted to working for 92064 Magazine because of the focus on families, businesses and events within our communities,” adds Gary. “I really like how 92064 Magazine gives the area
facebook.com/92064magazine
businesses the opportunity to ‘join the party’ and present their business as an integral part of their community.” Gary’s advice to local businesses: “Establish your brand and build your business by thinking long-term. Market yourself in well-read, high visibility publications such as 92064 Magazine.” The addition of Gary takes the total number of the Susco Media team to 16 members. “We are extremely fortunate to be surrounded by a dedicated team filled with talent, energy, creativity, and most importantly, passion,”says Breaux. Susco Media published its first magazine (92127 Magazine) in November 2009 with 1 full-time and 2 part-time employees. “Watching the company grow to 16 people has been an amazing transformation,” said Art Director Tyler McElhaney, who has been with Susco Media since the beginning. “The energy and buzz that is flowing around the office keeps things fresh and exciting. We are surrounded by a great group of individuals that each bring something to the team.” ¢

L
iving in the mild climate and comfortable neighborhoods of San Diego can make it easy to forget that many people are not so fortunate. Tina Socha has found a way to keep her life in perspective and make a difference in the lives of others by volunteering with Friends & Family Community Connection. What started out as a family friendship with Phil Harris (director of FFCC) and his family, led to a lifestyle of volunteering and helping communities near and far. “The Harris’ always welcomed our whole family to serve together with them. We never had to leave the kids behind, even when they were young.” The Socha children have grown up serving the community in many different arenas. Socha says it has helped shape them
into compassionate, caring adults. “There is a joy and satisfaction that comes from helping people. I wanted my kids to understand that from an early age.” This past year, Socha and Steve, her husband of 25 years, made their first trip to Haiti. Their kids, Nicholas and Jacqueline, now both in college, have travelled with their parents to Tanzania. The Friends & Family Community Connection started in 1996 when Mr. Harris began picking up garbage from a local apartment complex. Since then, the organization has grown to provide disaster relief after the fires in our local area, to aid those in need in Mississippi after Hurricane Katrina, and to feed and educate children in Haiti and Tanzania, Africa. Socha’s role with FFCC is to connect volunteers with an opportunity to make a

difference in an area. “Whether it’s a trip to Tanzania to build a medical clinic, packaging non-perishable meals for the hungry or starting a Fight Against Hunger Club at a local high school, I have the blessing of connecting people to that joy that comes from helping others.” There are many ways to help the FFCC help others. The first Monday of each month is spent feeding dinner to the homeless at a downtown Salvation Army. The organization is always looking for sponsors and volunteers to help at non-perishable food packaging events or for donors to fund the Impact H2O water filtration and purification systems that are installed in Haiti and Tanzania. Trips to both countries are planned for 2012 and 2013. Information on these opportunities and more is available at www.ffccsd.org. ¢

Crafts for Kids by WYNNE LOVE
A
s that special holiday approaches and the kids start to clamor for Valentines fun, you may feel a little heartsick yourself. Fear not. We’ve gathered some easy Valentine crafts for you and the kids to share. Looking for a unique way to spread the love at school without the sugar coating? Try these pencil toppers. Fashioned after the traditional candy hearts, these jaunty greetings use colorful pencils, pipe cleaners, and foam or paper hearts. Print your favorite catchy saying on each heart. Wind the pipe cleaner up the pencil and poke it through the heart for your own bouncy Valentine. Or, use popsicle sticks instead of pencils and stake bunches of them in a friend’s yard to give them a “heart attack.” A heartfelt message more your style? Try your own missive on a pop-up card. Fold your paper in half and cut a one-inch slit down the middle. Push the slit through the opening and fold the opposite way. Paste a paper heart or other symbol on the lower half of the tab and

watch it pop up when you open the card. Looking for something that will keep your Valentine flying high? How about a “love bug”? Wrap a toilet paper roll with tissue paper, attach heart wings and pipe cleaner attennae, and paint an adoring face. Your Valentine will be smitten. How about a place to put all your Valentines? Cut one paper plate in half and staple or tape it upside down to another full plate, to make a basket. Decorate, tie a ribbon from the top, and hang. Have a heartthrob whose attention you really want to grab? Stuff candies and secret messages into colorful balloons which they’ll have to pop to retrieve. Or write the message on the inflated balloon, then make your Valentine blow it up again to discover what you said. Find these and other fun ideas at the websites below, and have fun charming the loves of your life while helping them to charm theirs. ¢

:::: REAL ESTATE WATCH
Looking Towards Retirement W
e are working with a few investors who are looking at San Diego real estate as an enhancement to their retirement portfolio. One recent case shows why. Our investor purchased a duplex for $204k that needed $5k worth of work, so his total cash to acquire was just over $61k. The units bring in $2,150 a month in rent, and after all expenses he will clear just over $5k a year (we are managing the property for him). He does not need the cash flow, so we worked a plan where he will pull enough out to pay his taxes and apply the rest to the mortgage. This will allow him to pay the loan off in just over 15 years. Now, assume that there is no increase property values or rents in the next 15 years. In that case, once the property has been paid off in 15 years, he should receive over $15k a year in positive cash flow, and his initial investment of $61k will have grown to $204k, an increase of 234%. Try to get that return in a CD. ¢
