FROM THE PUBLISHER

Frequently Asked Questions

I

t has been eight years since we published our first magazine. We have grown from one local publication to a collection of 14 magazines that covers the majority of North San Diego County. Over the years, I’ve noticed that I get asked some repeat questions. So, I thought it would be fun to do an informal F.A.Q.

So, how does it work? Who pays for the magazines to be delivered?

This is by far the most common question I get when talking to businesses, friends, readers, government representatives, etc. There is only one answer.

Our incredible advertising partners – the businesses and organizations you find throughout these pages – are the exclusive sponsors that should be thanked.

We are 100 percent supported by these revenues, and without the participation of these loyal businesses, there would be no magazine. So please take the time to let these businesses know you appreciate their participation and that you saw them in 92067 Magazine.

Are these magazines part of a franchise?

No, 92067 Magazine has no affiliation with a national company or franchise. It is a home-grown publication that started with an idea, a lot of napkin scratching, and a desire to publish a local magazine our neighbors would want to read. Although we strive to make every magazine look bigger than life, we are a small, family-owned company that started out of our living room – and we are very proud of that history.

Derrick Breaux Publisher

Who writes the stories, and who designs the magazines?

This is my favorite question to answer, and I think this sets us apart from many other publishing companies. We have a team of about 20 incredibly talented people consisting of editorial, writers, photographers, graphic designers, account executives, and a production coordinator.

All are local, and all work feverishly to produce the best magazines possible.

Why do you publish magazines?

This answer is very personal. Although I don’t get asked this nearly as often, it is the most important question. We publish 92067 Magazine because we want to bring joy to our communities. I believe this magazine is larger than the paper it is printed on. It creates lasting memories, and memorializes community events and happenings. The pages of 92067 Magazine can be found framed on the walls of people’s homes. People are excited to mail them to grandparents and relatives that live outside of the area.

Twenty years from now, 30 years from now, or even 40 years from now, perhaps someone will open up a loved one’s cherished box of memories. And maybe – just maybe – there will be an old copy of 92067 Magazine that their relative proudly tucked away. And this will once again put a smile on someone’s face. That’s why I print magazines.

Thank you for reading 92067 Magazine and being a part of something that touches the hearts of our communities.

Taylor Levine Meets the Challenges of Teenage Life With Compassion and Gratitude

by LIZ ONUFER | photos by Soul of Photography

T

MEET TAYLOR Name: School: Hobbies & Interests: Favorite Local Spot:

Taylor Levine Torrey Pines High School Yoga, paddle boarding, hanging with friends The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe

aylor Levine first tried yoga at age 12. But it wasn’t until a few years later that she committed to the practice and training. “I was a cheerleader and a dancer all the way to the end of my freshman year of high school,” Taylor shared.

“When I moved from Cathedral Catholic High School to Torrey Pines High School, it dawned on me that those activities weren’t going to fit my lifestyle anymore.” Today, Taylor is a senior at Torrey Pines High School and a certified yoga instructor.

Taylor was inspired to begin yoga by her mother and a family friend who is an instructor at CorePower Yoga. “They are two of the most influential women in my life that inspired me to take this path,” she said. In 2015, Taylor completed a 200-hour yoga teacher training program and a 100-hour extension program. She began teaching at Fletcher’s Cove in Solana Beach and is now an instructor at If I Was A Bird, a children’s yoga studio in Del Mar. She also teaches a weekly teen class at the Rancho Santa Fe Community Center. “I enjoy teaching yoga because I carry on the light, love, and energy in my heart and make an impact on other people’s lives,” she explained.

At Torrey Pines High School, Taylor’s favorite class is Peer Tutoring, where she works with special needs students on life skills, social skills, and academics. “I also provide a fun yoga and dance class with accommodations for all students,” she shared. Taylor plans to attend college and major in special education.

This summer, Taylor is completing another 200-hour yoga teacher training. As the youngest person to train as an instructor at CorePower Yoga, Taylor finds the practice a perfect complement to the stress and anxiety of teenage life. “My goal is to inspire young girls with powerful meaning that can make them strong enough to handle whatever life throws their way,” Taylor acknowledged. “If I can instill strength in others to have compassion when someone is unkind or to think positive things of themselves instead of feeling insecure, that makes the biggest impact I could possibly ever imagine.” ¢

Healthy Back-to-School Lunches Kids Will Love Six Tips for Packing Nutritious Meals

by MACKENZIE COFFIN, M.D.; Scripps Clinic, Carmel Valley A nutritious midday meal gives children the staying power to sustain them through the day.

Start their school year off right with healthy lunches that they will enjoy.

PACKED LUNCHES MADE EASY Creating fresh, nutritious, and cost-effective lunches doesn’t have to be complicated. A little bit of preparation can go a long way. Set your child up for success with these six tips: 1. Make healthy eating a habit at home.

When children are used to eating foods from the five food groups, they are more willing to eat those same foods for lunch anywhere, including school. The five groups, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), are: grains; vegetables, including beans and peas; fruits; protein foods, which includes meats, poultry, seafood, eggs, and nuts; dairy, including all fluid milk products.

Choose foods with a high nutrient content (protein, minerals, and vitamins) compared with the percentage of calories, fat, and sodium.

Small amounts of oils, fats that are liquid at room temperature, are also recommended by the USDA. Although they are not a food group, they provide essential nutrients.

In addition to the food groups, other components to consider for healthy eating are added sugars, saturated fats, and sodium. While there is room for some added sugars or saturated fats occasionally, limit the amount your kids eat. Sweet treats such as cakes, cookies, candy, and sugary drinks have a lot of calories, but few nutrients. If you include them in their lunch, serve bite-size portions.

2. Involve children in meal preparation. This not only empowers children and promotes a feeling of responsibility, but also makes your child more likely to eat the lunch. Keep the pantry stocked with healthy staples and post a list of ideas on the refrigerator from which kids can choose. You can designate part of your kitchen as the lunch-packing station where the entire family can get the meal ready for the next day.

3. Give kids a choice. When preparing lunch, ask your child which healthy option they would prefer — such as a banana or strawberries.

By giving them a choice, they learn how to compromise and hone their decision-making skills.

4. Mix-and-match. Using the five food groups as a guide, toss in whole grain crackers with peanut butter, cut-up veggies with hummus, Greek yogurt with berries or a slice of cheese on top of whole grain bread.

The goal is to have variety, color, and to include three to five of the food groups at each meal.

5. Make good nutrition fun. Get creative with healthy foods. Use cookie cutters to make fun shapes out of sandwiches, cheese, or deli meats.

Using a bento box can help you create an appealing, colorful lunch and keep the food items separated, which is often important to kids.

Consider having a theme lunch, such as a pirate meal.

6. Nix juice and soda. As much as kids love drinking soda and juice, water is the best drink for them. Fat-free or one-percent milk is also a good option because it’s packed with calcium and vitamin D. Let your child pick out their favorite water bottle, and throw in frozen fruit if they complain water is too boring.

Using these tips, you and your family are off to a healthy and fun start to the school year. ¢

Mackenzie Coffin, M.D., is a pediatrician at Scripps Clinic, Carmel Valley.

Vicky Carlson Helps the San Diego Film Foundation Share the Power of Film

W

hen thinking of a notable film festival, Cannes or Sundance usually comes to mind, and not necessarily San Diego. Rancho Santa Fe resident Vicky Carlson hopes to help change that. Utilizing her former experience as the CEO of LEAD San Diego, a nonprofit that informs community leaders on civic issues, Vicky is excited to rebuild and rebrand everyone’s impression of the San Diego International Film Festival (SDIFF).

As the CFO and secretary on the board of the directors with the San Diego Film Foundation, Vicky commented, “Along with my fiduciary responsibilities as a director, I am also an ambassador, connector, and fundraiser, helping to grow the organization and its reach. If done right, the SDIFF could be a game changer for San Diego. It could drive our economy and get international attention as one of the top stops on the way to the Academy Awards.”

Now the SDIFF is considered one of the leading stops on the independent festival circuit, and is the region’s premier film event. This year’s SDIFF takes place Oct. 4 through 8 at both La Jolla UTC and in the Gaslamp Quarter of Downtown San Diego. Highlights include a “culinary cinema” event featuring food from local chefs/restaurants, a “Meet the Filmmakers” panel, a filmmaker’s awards show, and even a VARIETY Night of the Stars Tribute (previous honorees include Annette Bening, Geena Davis, Alan Arkin and Beau Bridges). Vicky added, “This festival is full of fun, excitement, and glamour, and it gets better every year.”

Name: Community: Profession: Hobbies & Interests: Favorite Local Spots:

Vicky Carlson Rancho Santa Fe CEO/Business Professional Oil painting, hiking, traveling, reading Home, local trails, and Rancho Santa Fe Bistro

Even though the glitzy festival is loaded with star-studded grandeur, Vicky is cognizant that it also satisfies a deeper level of meaning and understanding for the attendees. She explained, “The San Diego Film Foundation believes that film can be transformative. We plan to use film to explore issues of social justice, to create dialogue, to encourage self-reflection, and ultimately to develop empathy. Individuals can take in new perspectives and determine how that information might change their own views and actions within their communities.”

In her free time, Vicky loves oil painting, reading, volunteering with the Voices for Children nonprofit, and hiking (she recently completed her fifth Grand Canyon rim-to-rim hike). Vicky also adores Rancho Santa Fe, where she’s lived since 2009. She exclaimed, “Coming home feels like a retreat with its miles of beautiful trails, quiet atmosphere, friendly neighbors, and horses right on our property.” ¢ 12 • 92067MAGAZINE.COM • August | September 2017

Fighting for Earth

SDRVC LEADER WINS ENVIRONMENTAL AWARD

T

rish Boaz, Executive Director of the San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy (SDRVC), received San Diego EarthWorks’ Sun Catcher Award, presented by former city councilwoman and Trish’s long-time friend Donna Frye, at the organization’s annual dinner. The award recognizes businesses, clubs, organizations, and individuals that contribute to a clean, healthy environment. Trish joined SDRVC in 2013 as executive director, bringing over 30 years of conservation and environmental knowledge to the position. In partnership with the San Dieguito River Park JPA and the Volcan Mountain Foundation, Trish led SDRVC’s efforts to raise funds for River Path Del Mar and the Birdwing Open Air Classroom at the San Dieguito Lagoon. She also helped finalize trail alignments at Lusardi Creek and Pamo Valley, obtained grant funding for continued habitat restoration projects, and worked with other conservation partners to acquire additional open space land.

Established in 1986, SDRVC is a nonprofit organization dedicated to sustainable management of the natural resources of the San Dieguito Watershed. Since its founding, the Conservancy has acquired thousands of acres of land, restored hundreds of acres of habitat, and is now close to completing the entire length of the 70-mile Coast to Crest Trail that stretches from North Beach in Del Mar to Volcan Mountain near Julian.

San Diego EarthWorks is a network of volunteers who work towards a healthy, prosperous, and sustainable future for all living things by producing the annual EarthFair; hosting periodic community restoration and renewal projects; bringing together community, environmental, and government leaders to discuss issues of mutual concern; educating the public; and working with other local, national, and international organizations.

CCA Cinema Students Win Big photo by Brad Kester

Canyon Crest Academy’s (CCA) Envision Cinema Conservatory and CCA-TV students have experienced some impressive success in recent months. Their entries earned Best High School Journalism/News Program, Best Short Film, and Best Cinematography in the state at the California Student Media Festival in Los Angeles. They also received multiple honors at the San Diego Innovative Video in Education (IVIE) Awards held in Coronado, where they won Best Cross Curricular and Best Global Village awards.

Conservatory students also recently made history by being the first in the country to produce and screen two documentaries at an IMAX theater. Moviegoers gathered at the sold-out Edwards Stadium 18 IMAX & RPX in Mira Mesa for the screenings of student-produced films Bee Conscious and Change is in the Water. CCA Cinema Coordinator Mark Raines said it was a great opportunity for the students to create and share films about real issues that impact the community. Discover more at www.cca-envision.org.

Small Business of the Year Assemblymember Brian Maienschein recently recognized Greenway Irrigation Lawn and Landscape as Assembly District 77’s Small Business of the Year. “Greenway Irrigation Lawn and Landscape is an example of what every business should be,” said Assemblymember Maienschein. “This small business is known throughout the community for its commitment to superior customer service and commendable business ethics.” The landscape company is owned by Rancho Bernardo resident Scott Lawn, who is also an active community volunteer, throughout North County.

Each year the California Small Business Association asks legislators to nominate a Small Business of the Year from their district that has demonstrated exemplary business ethics and community service.

Honorees travel to the state capitol and are presented with a special award recognizing their contributions. Assembly District 77 includes the communities of Poway, Rancho Bernardo, Scripps Ranch, Rancho Peñasquitos, 4S Ranch, Fairbanks Ranch, Rancho Santa Fe, and others.

Coast to Crest Challenge The San Dieguito River Valley Conservancy (SDRVC) has issued a Coast to Crest Trail Challenge to hikers and bikers to explore some of San Dieguito River Park’s most iconic spots along the Coast to Crest Trail. Participants must complete the five designated hikes listed below, in any order through June 30, 2018, either on their own or through guided hikes with the Conservancy.

There is a designated “selfie” spot on each trail where people must take a photo as evidence they completed the hike. Once they’ve completed all five hikes, they will email all their selfies to sdrvc@sdrvc.org for verification.

Everyone who successfully completes the challenge will receive a special certificate and decal, 20% off coupon from REI, and $10 in Adventure Bucks from Adventure 16, plus bragging rights for accomplishing five cool outdoor adventures. Enthusiasts are encouraged to share their selfies and other photos on Instagram and Facebook with the hashtag #C2CChallenge. The challenge was inspired by Mission Trails Regional Park’s 5-Peak Challenge.

For more information visit www.sdrvc.org/C2CChallenge.html.

Starry Starry Night Gala Voices for Children (VFC) will hold their 15th Annual Starry Starry Night on Saturday, Sept. 9 at Del Dios Ranch. All event proceeds will benefit VFC, a nonprofit organization which transforms the lives of children in foster care by providing them with volunteer Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASAs). CASAs offer a sense of stability and advocate for foster children in the courtroom, at school, and in the community.

Starry Starry Night is considered one of San Diego’s premier fundraising events. The annual gala has grown from an intimate event in a private home to one of our community’s most anticipated events, grossing more than $1 million in each of the past five years. A fitting venue, Del Dios Ranch in Rancho Santa Fe boasts the magnificent Sahm Estate, home to the late Ramona and Roland Sahm.

Of serving as event chairs, Lany and Alex Zikakis shared, “We are honored to carry forward the legacy of celebration and generosity of Starry Starry Night. The gala will make it possible for Voices for Children to serve more than 3,200 foster children in San Diego County through the advocacy of more than 1,500 CASA volunteers.” For more information visit www.speakupnow.org. For sponsorship opportunities contact Sheila Owens, Special Events Manager, at events@speakupnow.org or 858-598-2261.

RSF Foundation Team Grows The Rancho Santa Fe Foundation has welcomed new additions to its team, Karen Sprigle as associate director and Febbie Kwan as the new administrative assistant. As associate director, Karen will lead general operations and strategic planning for the Foundation, as well as cyber security. Karen has over 25 years of mid- and senior-level management experience in corporations such as Security Pacific National Bank, Bank of America, and United Way, and has held positions on the United Way’s Women’s Leadership Council, City Heights Leadership Table, the Education Synergy Alliance, and Nonprofit Management Solutions Board of Directors.

With an economics degree from the University of California, San Diego and experience with companies such as AVID and the Manchester Grand Hyatt, Febbie Kwan will also be a vital part of the Foundation’s programs and operations in her position as administrative assistant.

Cathedral Catholic High School Continues a Strong Legacy of Faith, Character, and Achievement

athedral Catholic High School’s (CCHS) core values of faith, knowledge, character, and responsibility have guided the development of high-achieving, well-rounded leaders for 60 years. The CCHS legacy has deep roots in the San Diego community. Cathedral Girls High School merged with University San Diego High School (UNI) in 1970 on UNI’s Linda Vista Campus.

UNI transitioned to the current CCHS Campus

in Carmel Valley in 2005 and took on the new name of Cathedral Catholic High School.

“No matter what campus you were on, once you become a Don, you’re always a Don,” said CCHS President Mr. Stevan Laaperi.

“The Dons’ legacy has never been stronger.

Over 80 alumni are among the CCHS team of administrators, faculty, coaches, and staff.”

The professional staff is well qualified to uphold that legacy. Most teachers have a

master’s degree or higher in the subject they teach, and the entire staff strives to model the values of a Catholic faith community. The school is accredited by the Western Catholic Educational Association and the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, and holds membership with the College Board.

“In partnership with parents, we form an educational ministry that is mutually supportive and a community committed to excellence,” SPECIAL ADVERTISEMENT

said Principal Mr. Kevin Calkins. “It is our intent that our graduates carry a spirit of intellectual curiosity and a love of learning on their continuing journey of personal and spiritual growth.”

Over 1,600 students are currently beginning that journey on the dynamic CCHS campus. Facilities include 75 classrooms, 12 science labs, two computer labs, a robotics lab, a ceramics studio, a music room, a lecture hall, several special-use classrooms, world-class athletic facilities, a library, a lecture hall, a chapel and meditation garden – there’s a place for every student to discover their passion.

Over 70 percent of CCHS students participate in one or more of the school’s 80-plus teams, and CCHS competes in the Western League as part of the San Diego City Conference.

“The various extracurricular programs at Cathedral have made this school a perfect fit for me.”

“The various extracurricular programs at Cathedral have made this school a perfect fit for me. There is a chance for everyone to find their niche, whether through the academic teams such as Mock Trail and Debate like me, or through athletics, drama, robotics, or art,” said Jake, a student in the Class of 2019. Nick, from the Class of 2018, agreed: “Only at Cathedral Catholic can I share my faith by being a part of our LIGHT (Living in God’s House Together) group program where we serve the San Diego community by feeding the poor, helping in underprivileged schools, and working with the elderly.”

The community is invited to cheer on the Dons at their homecoming football game on Friday, Oct. 13 at 7 p.m., or discover more at the CCHS Open House on Oct. 21 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Enjoy the CCHS drama department’s first production of the year on Oct. 6 and 7. 

u t n e v d A ven if you’ve lived in Southern California your whole life, there’s a good chance you haven’t explored every hidden gem the Golden State has to offer. When people travel, they typically skip the off-the-beaten-path destinations. By going on a road trip, you give yourself an opportunity to say, “Wow, I can’t believe this place actually exists!” We invite you to learn more about the beaches, campgrounds, mountains, and lakes of California so you can get the most out of your last few weeks of summer. Adventure awaits!

When warm weather hits, the beach is definitely on everyone’s mind. The best part of living in 92067 is the ease of packing the car with beach gear and heading up or down the coast to your favorite “edge of the continent” bliss. From Santa Barbara to San Diego, each beach area along our coast has its very own charm. These beaches and their communities are varied enough to have appeal for just about everyone. We offer a unique perspective of what you, your family, or your friends have in store if you decide that the beach is the perfect destination or pit stop for your road trip.

CATALINA ISLAND

LA JOLLA

SAN CLEMENTE

Just 22 miles off the Southern California coast is Catalina Island, a little haven for getting away from the masses. Shop for trinkets, snorkel, take a glass-bottom boat ride, camp, or just enjoy a good book on the beach.

North of downtown San Diego is this jewel of the coast, La Jolla. There are gorgeous views everywhere you look and the weather is sublime. La Jolla Cove has boundless opportunities for sensational snorkeling while the Shores allow for surfing lessons and fun for all ages.

San Clemente has a wonderful State campground and a small town atmosphere near the beach.

Trestles Trail is a must for the hiking enthusiast.

CARPINTERIA Carpinteria is a small beach town between Santa Barbara and Ventura. The Carpinteria Beach, known as the “World’s Safest Beach,” has been rated the #1 swimming beach in California, due mostly to its southern exposure and its protection by the Channel Islands.

ENCINITAS The beach communities of Leucadia and Cardiff-by-the-Sea are included in the San Diego North County town of Encinitas, which boasts the beloved Moonlight Beach.

LAGUNA BEACH Laguna Beach is known for having the most beautiful beach coves on the Southern California coast.

Laguna is also full of excellent and varied restaurants and art galleries.

The annual art festivals draw art lovers from all over every summer.

Check out the Sawdust Art Festival’s Annual Summer Show through Sept. 3.

LONG BEACH Long Beach has the aquarium, the Queen Mary, Little Naples with its gondolas, ferries to Catalina, an art museum, and Rainbow Harbor with its waterfront restaurants.

MALIBU Much of Malibu’s coastline is covered with the famed beach bungalows along with the Zuma, Paradise Cove, and Malibu Beach – just to name a few of the renowned public beaches.

MANHATTAN BEACH Manhattan Beach is in Los Angeles County near the LAX airport. The beach is wide and sandy and the boardwalk is full of joggers, bikers, and other beach-goers.

OCEANSIDE Oceanside has lots of beach, more reasonably priced hotels, and a harbor for boating or waterfront dining.

SANTA BARBARA A cozy beach town beautifully nestled between the coast and the mountains. Visit the famed restaurants and take in the Spanish-Mediterranean architecture. As you wander down the streets of Santa Barbara you might bump into well known filmmaker Bruce Brown – whose cult classic, The Endless Summer, put surfing on the map – or 10-time world surfing champion Kelly Slater.

SANTA MONICA Santa Monica has beaches, an amusement pier, great shopping, world class hotels and restaurants, and close proximity to UCLA, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and LAX. Visit the Museum of Flying at the Santa Monica Airport.

VENTURA Ventura is a laid-back little beach town with a nice boating harbor and wide sandy beaches. Channel Island boat tours take off from Ventura. Marine Park is also a great place to bring kids and kites.

The Ventura Beach pirate ship is a must!

HOTEL TONIGHT

With a postcard setting at the base of three mountains – the Thumb (13,356 feet), Middle Palisade (14,012 feet), and Norman Clyde Peak (13,855 feet) – this camp is an ideal hub for hikers and climbers.

Experts head for the Palisade Glacier – the southernmost in the U.S. – while the less ambitious bask around the waterfalls and wildflowers close to camp and the series of glacial-blue lakes beyond.

Hotels give last-minute deals on their unsold rooms with discounts up to 70%. Book the deals easily and securely on your smartphone.

In summer, kids spend whole days ankle deep in the Navarro River, which flows calmly over fist-sized stones through a redwood grove.

Gardens and picnic areas at the Anderson Valley wineries are a short drive away. Stop by the Philo Apple Farm for a wander in the orchard and some fresh juice from the honor stand.

Near Santa Barbara, CA Carpinteria State Beach Kids can’t object to a lack of TV if they’re plopped onto a mile-long beach. Reserve early (up to seven months ahead) for the popular Santa Rosa beach row sites, then spend the weekend swimming, surf fishing, and exploring tidepools.

Camp out under the oaks and sycamores in the Santa Ana Mountains without relinquishing life’s little necessities – like flush toilets. Get oriented to the great outdoors on the Sunday morning ranger walk. The 2.5-mile East Ridge Trail makes a great beginner’s hike.

Near Santa Cruz, CA New Brighton State Beach Set on a pine-shaded bluff above an endless white beach, New Brighton’s 100-plus sites get snapped up by those itching for a beach weekend without the expensive nightly tab. The beach is the real draw and the hot showers are inviting, but another bonus is that if you forget your matches or just don’t feel like cooking, you can easily grab takeout in town, a five-minute drive away.

Near Lake Tahoe, CA Island Lake, Desolation Wilderness A great choice for the first-time backpacker, with moderate effort required for spectacular views in the end. Pack your stuff in after three miles to overnight at Island Lake beneath soaring Mt. Price. The dramatically stark granite terrain dotted with shock-blue lakes is the definition of high country.

Next morning, you’re set to explore the lakes and passes higher up the slope – and out of day-hiker range.

If you’re like most American families, summer vacation usually means you’re heading to the beach, amusement park, or maybe even a big-city adventure. But don’t overlook the fun waiting to be had at our local mountain and lakes. These family-friendly summer playground destinations are just an easy drive up north.

BIG BEAR

LAKE TAHOE

MAMMOTH

YOSEMITE

Summertime in Big Bear often comes early and stays late – at 7,000 feet and bursting with sunshine, the warm and welcome mid-season rain showers, and extraordinary nighttime skies are just some of the natural amenities of a road trip to Big Bear. The sunshine rays are more intense than at sea level, shining through the mountain’s clean, light air, and low humidity in probable 80- to 90-degree daytime highs. Whether you’re looking for an adventure on a jet ski, family fun on the alpine slides, or just want to chill on a pontoon, Big Bear has it all. Visit www.bigbear.com for information on upcoming events.

Lake Tahoe is a popular summer refuge from summer heat and an enormous draw to boaters, fishermen, water skiers, and adventurers. The pleasant daytime temperatures and very relaxing and casual environment draws the summer crowd. With the infinite things to do during the summer, from basking on the beautiful beaches to hiking or camping within the Tahoe Basin, there is certainly something for everyone. Be sure to ride to the top of the mountain on the Heavenly Mountain Gondola, go rafting on the Truckee, take in a boat cruise, and check out the Lake Tahoe Summer Music or Shakespeare Festivals. Visit www.tahoesbest.com for a local connection with deals and packages.

In the winter, Mammoth Lakes is the hot spot for the Southern California ski crowd. Skiers stake out a condo or hotel during the season to reap the rewards of abundant snowfall on the majestic mountain. But ask these same people if they’ve visited Mammoth during the summer and the answer will likely be “no.” And that is what makes Mammoth the perfect summer getaway, free from tourists and full of hiking, fishing, biking, and outdoor fun. Mammoth is a warm weather playground, with its nine profoundly blue lakes, plus another 100 lakes covering the surrounding countryside. The Mammoth Mountain Ski Area becomes Mammoth Mountain Bike Park in the summer and boasts over 70 miles of trails with access to chairlifts and shuttles.

The Panoramoic Gondola tops at 11,053 feet for those who want to watch the ambitious bikers zoom down the slopes. Visit www.mammothmountain.com for summertime adventure guides.

One of America’s favorites, Yosemite Park, is best known for its waterfalls, but within its nearly 1,200 square miles, one can find grand meadows, deep valleys, gigantic ancient sequoias, a plethora of wilderness areas, and much more. The eastern entrance to Yosemite National Park at Tioga Pass (Hwy 120) is a quick 30-minute drive north of Mammoth on Highway 395. Visiting Yosemite National Park during the summer will guarantee access to the entire park via car, as the weather has warmed and snow has completely melted. Summer is the most popular time to visit the park, so be sure to scope out your park reservations well in advance of your trip. Plan your Yosemite road trip by visiting www.yosemitepark.com. ¢

A Look at 92067’s Real Estate Numbers

by JESSICA BREAUX

he figures are in for June, and the numbers remain mixed for home sales in 92067. A quick comparison to the same time period last year shows some minor fluctuation, but nothing to “call home” about.

92067 experienced a tightening of available inventory in June, with a total of 32 new single family home listings hitting the market, compared to 50 new listings in June 2016 – a significant drop of 36%. The total inventory of single family homes for sale was also down 20% with 209 homes available for purchase, versus 262 during the same period last year.

The average number of days that homes were on the market during June was 149 days, compared to 105 days in June 2016. The 42% slower selling time could suggest a possible softening of the high-end market.

The values of recent homes sold are also slightly lower. The median sales price of a 92067 single family home during the month of June was $2,144,000, a decrease of 16.8% compared to last June’s $2,577,500 median price. Year to date, the median sales price for a single family home in 92067 is also a bit lower at $2,105,000, which is a 6.5% decrease YTD over 2016.

If you are considering making a move, you should still be able to do so with confidence. Give me a call to schedule a meeting. It’s important to work with someone that you trust, and I would love the opportunity to get to know you and discuss your real estate goals. ¢
