Fall is in the Air
I
’m typically a summer guy. I like the warm weather. I like spending time out in the boat. There are the beaches, the parks, hiking, kids are out of school – it’s all good. Summer is usually my favorite time of the year. So why have I spent the last several weeks daydreaming about the arrival of fall? Quite frankly, because it’s been HOT! I guess I’m getting old. Or perhaps I’ve simply turned into a Southern California fair-weather person. Anyone that is close to me knows that I love to wear my shorts and T-shirts. In fact, that is my work attire more days than not. But let’s face it – the August heat has been ridiculous to say the least. The idea of getting back to our 72 degree average daily forecast – along with chilly nights – is quite appealing to me. I can barely wait. Of course, it doesn’t hurt that our kids are now back in school, and our home is getting back into a more realistic schedule with predictable routines. There is a simple feeling of relief that I get knowing that our kids are hard at work in the classroom and not constantly being shuttled around between play dates, camps, and sleepovers. Oh, and the retirement (for the most part) of the repetitive “I’m bored” phrase – gone! Strange how that happens. And did I mention football? Isn’t fall synonymous with football? The temperature cools down for the players on the gridiron – having Derrick Breaux played many years of football growing up, this must be by design. Publisher Whether you are a local high school football fan, a college fan, or a professional football fan, you can’t deny the excitement of the season. Fall is almost here, I’m ready for it. We have some great things planned for the magazine over the next few issues. Be on the lookout for some additional departments and special sections within the pages of 92081 – all designed with you in mind. Thanks for your continued support. Don’t be a stranger. We always welcome feedback, photo submissions, article recommendations, and new ideas. It’s a community thing! All the best, Derrick Breaux, Publisher

Passion 4 K.I.D.S.
NONPROFIT PROVIDES SCHOOL SUPPLIES FOR UNDERPRIVILEGED KIDS
P
assion 4 Kids in Desperate Situations (Passion 4 K.I.D.S), a local nonprofit for children, took 50 underprivileged children on a shopping adventure to Famous Footwear in late August in an effort to help provide necessary school supplies that their families otherwise may not have been able to purchase. The children were allowed to shop with their parents or guardians and choose whether they wanted to purchase two pairs of shoes or one pair of shoes and a backpack. Passion 4 K.I.D.S. founders Charles and Linda Van Kessler said, “We want each child to feel special at the beginning of their new school
year. Something as simple as a new pair of shoes and a backpack can tremendously help their self-esteem. Knowing most of their parents are struggling financially, we wanted to make sure the children experienced the
excitement of new shoes and a backpack.” In addition, the students were made to feel extra special when they found out that the store opened an hour early just for them. Passion 4 K.I.D.S. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit charity dealing with abandoned, abused, handicapped, neglected, and underprivileged children all over the United States, as well as children with acute, life-threatening, or emergency health issues with little or no insurance or no government programs available to help them. The nonprofit has been recognized for their work with a proclamation from the City of San Diego and certificates of recognition from the California State Legislature and the U.S. Congress.

Fresh from the Garden NORTH COUNTY SCHOOLS EARN OPPORTUNITY TO FOSTER HEALTHY EATING ON CAMPUS
T
he Sage Garden Project recently awarded over $350,000 to the garden and nutritional science programs of several schools located throughout California. In addition to the cash award, which ranged from $5,000 to $50,000 based on need, campuses will receive lesson plans for garden and nutritional science and a fully-equipped cooking cart for the garden or classroom. Sixteen schools total earned the cash award, and 15 will be establishing the Sage Garden Project on their campuses to promote healthy eating. A majority of the awardees were from San Diego County – the list included Ocean Knoll Elementary in Encinitas, Anza Elementary in Vista, and Skyline School and Solana Vista Elementary in Solana Beach. The Sage Garden Project originally operated a pilot program at Ocean Knoll Elementary for the last
four years to lay the groundwork for the current expansion into 15 additional schools, which are set to implement their programs in the 2015-2016 school year. The program, which is just one leg of the Anthony Cerami and Anne Dunne Foundation for World Health, aims to reduce the occurrence of malnutrition and type 2 diabetes in the community’s youth by providing tools and inspiration for a healthy lifestyle. The program provides garden design and implementation, cooking facilities, lessons, planning, staff, and support for select schools with at-risk students. Standards-based lessons come to life with hands-on lessons that are centered in the garden. For more information on the Sage Garden Project and its mission visit www.sagegardenproject.org. ¢

Place the sorted lima beans in a large pot and cover beans with at least three inches of water. Let soak overnight. Drain and rinse beans. Place beans, onion, bay leaves, and salt into a dutch oven with enough water to cover and bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook beans at a simmer for one to two hours, checking after an hour. When they are ready, the beans should be firm but tender. Place quinoa and water into stock pot. Add salt and cover until the water starts to boil. Turn down to simmer and cook for 10 to 15 minutes until tender. In a large bowl, toss cooled beans, quinoa, peppers, sliced onion, olive, corn, cilantro, and chipotle salad dressing. This stored in the refrigerator if not being used immediately. Flavors will marry over time and impart a wonderful taste. When ready to eat, pile the salad onto a plate and sprinkle with pepitos.

About the Chef Submit a rec www.9 2081ma ipe at gazine.c om
Chef: Mary Dralle Community: Vista Hobbies/Interests: Cooking, gardening, foraging, and labyrinth walking Favorite Local Activity: Making and serving a great meal About the Recipe: This particular recipe was developed for the San Dieguito Heritage Museum’s Lima Bean Cook-Off. It utilizes two foods from Peru, quinoa and lima beans, to produce a salad with complementary proteins that contains the “three sisters”: corn, beans, and squash. This can be served on a bed of lettuce as a stand-alone dish that does not require animal protein. Additionally, it is naturally gluten-free. About Me: Born and raised here in San Diego, I started cooking at the age of 10. In 2009 I was given the chance to demonstrate at the San Diego Botanic Garden’s Herb Festival and have been teaching ever since. As a former chemist and chef, I explain and show the science behind what goes on in the kitchen. My cooking style is unique in that I offer dishes that range from Native American dishes to flower and herb dishes to less-exposed ethnic dishes, all with an explanation of the science behind the cooking process. Many of my clients describe my style as one of historian, gardener, chef, and scientist. ¢
Soothe Your Lower Back EIGHT TIPS TO AVOID BACK PAIN If you’ve been laid low by a sore back, you have plenty of company. About 80 percent of adults experience back pain at some point in their lives, making it the second most common pain condition in the U.S., according to the National Institutes of Health.
by SHANTU PATEL, M.D.; Scripps Coastal Medical Center, Vista
Include core-strengthening exercises to develop stronger abdominal muscles, which also protect your back by providing greater support. Yoga can be especially helpful because it promotes deep breathing and relaxation as well as emphasizing stretching and muscle strength. Stay away from sit-ups, leg lifts, and toe touches if you have chronic back pain. Watch your weight. Extra pounds can make back pain worse by shifting your center of gravity and putting strain on back. Stay away from high heels.
While back pain has many causes and manifests in different ways, from a dull ache to a sharp pain, the good news is that most lower back pain gets better within a few days or weeks. Try these eight tips to strengthen your back and prevent pain. Get moving. You may think staying still and resting is the best remedy for a sore back, but regular physical activity eases inflammation and muscle tension. Low-impact exercise such as walking or swimming increases strength so your back muscles function more efficiently.
Don’t smoke. Smoking increases the risk of osteoporosis, which can lead to a weaker spine and subsequent back pain. Sleeping position matters. If you can, avoid sleeping on your back or stomach, since these positions add additional strain on your lower back. If you do sleep on your back, try putting a pillow under your knees for more support, and if you have to sleep on your stomach, place a pillow under your hips. Your doctor can help advise you about the best sleeping position if you have questions.
Lift with proper form. You have probably seen pictures or graphic representations of the best way to lift items to prevent straining your back. Always bend at the knees to pick up something, with your feet shoulder-width apart, rather than bending at the waist to reach down to the object with your arms. Holding the object close to your body, slowly straighten your legs, keeping your back straight. Avoid twisting your back in any way while lifting objects. Pay attention to posture. Standing and sitting up straight will help you avoid putting undue strain on your back. If you are sitting, make sure you have a chair with good back support and keep your knees and hips level. Never slouch or lean to the side. At work, make sure your desk and work area is ergonomically sound. Spending hours at work hunched over a desk can put undue stress on the back. Keep your feet flat on the floor and change your position regularly. If you experience back pain for more than two weeks, see your primary care doctor. ¢

Brynn Flannery Zorilla (15) Rancho Buena Vista High School 10 Dan and Anne Zorilla Rowan (20), Kaitlyn (18) My high school stadium because I have so many memories there – my first ever field hockey camp, fun night practices with my team, and exciting games that go into overtime have all taken place inside that stadium
ancho Buena Vista (RBV) sophomore Brynn Zorilla didn’t start playing field hockey until only a few years ago. She shared, “When my older sister Kaitlyn made her middle school team, I would mess around on the sidelines of her games, but I didn’t get to play on my first team until I was in sixth grade.” Since then, however, Brynn’s athletic talent and drive to
be her best have taken her from training with RUSH Field Hockey to making the varsity team at RBV to landing a spot on the USA Under-17 National Team. Brynn explained, “My high school coaches Kaci Bronson and Marissa Hughes, as well as my club coaches Brian Schledorn and Molly Cassidy, have shared with me their knowledge and love for the game. I am so excited to get

to train alongside our country’s top players and hopefully one day get to put on a USA jersey.” Along with her spot on the USA National team, Brynn has also already earned herself a scholarship offer from University of California, Berkeley, which she has since accepted. “When I found out that Cal wanted me to play for them
in 2018, I was shocked,” she said. With wisdom beyond her years, Brynn admits that she took some time to think about the decision before accepting the scholarship. “I spent time thinking about the pros and cons, and I realized that the pros were everything I wanted. I fell in love with the campus and the coaches are all so welcoming and knowledgeable.” Even with all the recognition, Brynn continues to strive to improve and grow as an athlete, and looks forward to her remaining time at RBV. She explained, “There is no limit to how much any player can improve – I want to continue to grow over the next few years so that when I put on the Golden Bears jersey for the first time, I will be able to make my family, friends, and coaches proud.” Aside from field hockey, Brynn also enjoys reading, drawing, going to the beach, and spending time with her friends and family. She credits her older sister Kaitlyn as her biggest inspiration, and is grateful to her parents for always supporting her love for the game, saying, “Kaitlyn is the one who got me to try field hockey. She has been my coach, my mentor, my teammate, and most importantly, my best friend. I also owe a huge thanks to my parents for driving me to practices and games day after day, and doing everything they can to give me the opportunity to play field hockey all over the country.” With a plan for her future and the drive to succeed, it is clear that this Student Star is well on her way to greatness.

BIG FAMILY DEVOTION The Barton Clan is Devoted to Helping Others by LINDA FRABL | photo by Dawn at Nicoli Productions
T
he Bartons first moved to Vista from Tijuana, Mexico in 1997, when there were only four children in the family. Fast forward 18 years and the Barton brood now encompasses seven children – three daughters and four sons – ranging in age from 14 to 26. Patriarch Kevin exclaimed, “We enjoy hanging out as a big group and being with our extended family and friends.” Lourdes added, “Our door is always open!” This open-door policy is a reflection of the Bartons’ deep faith. The whole clan grew up attending mass every Sunday at St. Francis of Assisi Church, where Lourdes works as an administrative assistant. Much of the Barton offspring has expressed their devotion to their Parents: Children: Community: Hometowns: Occupations: Pets: Favorite Places in Vista:

church and to helping others, and Lourdes proclaimed, “Most of the volunteer work we do is within our parish.” Eldest daughter Michelle (26) has volunteered at the church’s youth department, and Lucia (25) has travelled as a missionary to Central America. Alec (21), who is attending St. Mary’s College in Moraga, works with the Miles Christi religious order. Elizabeth (16) will be teaching religious confirmation classes and she works as an altar server alongside her brother Benjamin (14). David (23), works as a recruiter in La Jolla and is busy with planning his upcoming wedding in January 2016. Incidentally, Lucia will also be married next year in May. With so many kids to keep track of, Kevin admitted, “It may seem a bit overwhelming at times, but ultimately we love God, and we love to laugh and be with our family.” The two eldest daughters get to be with their father Monday through Friday, as they both work at his business, Kevin Barton Financial Services. Describing his clientele, Kevin said, “We help people not only from our community, but all over the United States.” As for their chosen community of Vista, Lourdes appreciates its wide variety of people from various native backgrounds that can all live together in harmony. She elaborated, “The diversity of cultures living in this area of all socio-economic circles makes it a perfect foundation for our children to grow up in ‘the real world.’ The different languages and the different experiences in tasting food from many different countries keep us connected to what we call ‘the Vista experience.’”

:::: COMMUNITY STUFF BGCV Honors Paul Eckert
The Boys & Girls Club of Vista (BGCV) honored former board member Paul Eckert in early August for his service to the community of Vista. Club members presented Paul with artwork and an award with the form of an engraved spatula at the BGCV Pancake Breakfast fundraiser. Paul’s recent contributions to the club include helping to renovate the community room and kitchen. The Pancake Breakfast fundraiser also gave nearly 100 attendees the chance to enjoy pancakes, eggs, sausage, and coffee, as well as entertainment from BGCV members. All proceeds from the event benefited the club’s athletic programs, in an effort to keep the programs affordable at Vista Unified School District middle schools. The overall goal is to raise $6,000 for the programs by Nov. 1. For more information visit www.bgcvista.org or to make a donation visit www.razoo.com/story/boys-club-of-vista.
Green Transportation Choices
The SANDAG iCommute division, which helps reduce traffic and greenhouse gas emissions through commuter assistance and employer services, recently recognized 33 local employers for embracing and encouraging green transportation choices, including Vista’s own Watkins Manufacturing. The 2015 iCommute Diamond Awards were granted during a special breakfast reception at SANDAG. The Diamond Awards program is based on a points system, and participating employers receive points based on employer involvement, Corporate Challenge participation, and shifts in employee commute choices. The program educates employers on how to promote and implement transport alternatives like carpooling, walking, biking, taking public transit options, telecommuting, or compressed workweek schedules. All of these options help reduce the number of cars on San Diego’s roads, contributing to a shorter commute for everyone and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

ArtSplash Funds Local Art and Music Programs
Local Groups Support HMLA 369
Earlier this summer, the City of Vista sponsored a beach day for 500 local Helicopter Marine Light Attack Squadron (HMLA 369) Marines and their families at Del Mar Beach on Camp Pendleton. Local groups such as the GFWC Contemporary Women of North Country (CWONC), Woman’s Club of Vista, the Vista Lion’s Club, and many other community organizations came out to support the Marines and treat them to a Hawaiian-style barbeque and a fun day in the sun. The event included food, games, entertainment by Island Inspiration, and door prizes. Some of the Marines even joined the performers on stage for a little Hula instruction. The HMLA 369, known as the “Gunfighters” and based out of Camp Pendleton, provides worldwide combat-ready expeditionary aviation forces and completes many humanitarian operations each year. Pictured in the photo are CWONC members Gina Tashjian, Laura Wilson, Pam Irwin, and Marianne Valencia.

This year’s tournament showcased the skills of players ages seven to 18 in over 100 teams from over 30 local clubs, and sponsors included Adidas and soccerloco. In addition to the fierce competition there was an air of celebration and community, with participants and volunteers getting dressed to impress in pink. San Marcos Revolution GU10 and FC Heat B12 won the Power of Pink award for best representing the spirit of the tournament – the San Marcos Revolution girls wore matching pink boxing gloves.

Tackling Domestic Violence
After a year of partnership, San Diego Charger Eric Weddle and Evolution Lighthouse co-founders Patrick Pickford and Gerly Noland are proud of the impact their collaboration has had on the lives of people affected by domestic violence. They’re also excited to unveil their new 2015 line of Chargers-themed jewelry for fans, with every purchase helping Alliance for Hope support victims and their children. The theme for the line is #WearTheSpotlight. “We love the difference we can make in the lives of children and adults,” said Eric. “Seeing their smiles and breaking them out of a horrible situation is what it’s all about. Everyone deserves a life without domestic violence.” Patrick added, “Eric has been my friend for a number of years, and when domestic violence took over the NFL headlines last year, we immediately started talking about what should be done and what could be done.” Learn more and see the collection at www.evolutionlighthouse.com.

Each year the event attracts approximately 7,500 volunteers of all ages from community organizations, local businesses, and government agencies. In 2014 alone, volunteers removed 204,000 pounds of trash and recyclables from San Diego’s 11 watersheds that otherwise would have polluted San Diego’s waterways and beloved coastline. ILACSD is currently seeking community members and corporate volunteer teams to coordinate cleanup sites, and volunteers of all ages are encouraged to sign up to participate.

The Oldest Farmers’ Market in San Diego County Celebrates Local Goods Right Here in Vista photos by Dawn at Nicoli Productions
The Vista Farmers’ Market has been bringing high-quality, locally grown produce and goods to the community every Saturday morning, rain or shine, since 1981. It began with only a handful of farmers but now offers everything from seasonal fresh fruits and vegetables to meats, cheeses, wine, and flowers, as well as clothing, jewelry, and soap, among other things – all sold straight from the people that grew or made each product. Read along as we talk with Market Manager Mark Wall about the history of the market, its role in the community, the types of vendors and products offered, and what you can expect if you’re headed to market on a Saturday morning in Vista.

Q&A with
MARKET MANAGER MARK WALL
WHAT IS THE HISTORY BEHIND THE VISTA FARMERS’ MARKET?
The Vista Farmers’ Market was started in 1981 by a small group of farmers to take advantage of a new law that allowed farmers to sell what they grew directly to customers – until then it was illegal for farmers to sell direct!
WHAT IS YOUR ROLE WITH THE MARKET?
I am the market coordinator and I keep all the moving parts flowing by working with the farmers, foodmakers, customers, and inspectors. I am also in charge of all of our special events. On any given Saturday morning it is not uncommon for me to hear, “There he is! Go ask Mark; he’s the one wearing the large, white-brimmed hat and the suspenders.”

My other hats, while not quite as fashionable, keep the market functional. I take care of all of the licensing and requirements that make the market a market. I work directly with inspectors to make sure the food and produce being offered is of the highest integrity and that farmers are really farmers. I also balance the amount of farmers and foodmakers with the amount of shoppers so that there is a vast variety offered to heighten the shopping experience without overwhelming it. I coordinate special events at the market and work with organizations, charities, and local groups to enhance awareness in the community we serve. This role is one that requires me to listen, pay attention, and discern. This allows the market to flex and grow in accordance with the needs of our courageous farmers, our creative makers,
and the valued community we not only serve but are an active part of.
TELL US MORE ABOUT THE MISSION OF VISTA FARMERS’ MARKET, SPECIFICALLY ITS GOAL TO HELP FARMERS KEEP FARMING. WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT?
Farmers feed us. And farmers are still going out of business at an alarming rate. Without local food we are a less resilient community in economic, health, social, and a myriad of other ways.
DOES THE MARKET PARTNER UP WITH ANY LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS OR BUSINESSES?
The Vista Farmers’ Market tries to say yes to as many groups, people, and
businesses as possible. We have a monthly event that is open to a wider variety of entrepreneurs than a strict farmers market is allowed to have. Each year we have a Kids Market where children can experience the world of business at its most basic – developing a product and display, and selling directly to eager customers. The market hosts four Wellness Fairs that highlight a diversity of health modalities and providers. We also work with local nonprofits on their fundraising activities.
HOW HAS THE MARKET EVOLVED SINCE ITS OPENING?
cheeses, poultry, wine, olive oils, baked goods, vegan and gluten free items, fresh eggs, flowers, a huge variety of plants, and local fish. We also have vendors that offer a variety of hot and cold foods ready to eat, along with a select few artisans who make clothing, jewelry, cutting boards, pottery, and handmade soap. The Vista Farmers’ Market served as the model for most of the farmers’ markets that followed in the county.
HOW MANY VENDORS DOES THE MARKET HOST?
The number of farmers and makers who participate varies by season, but normally we have 90 to 100 farmers and makers.
The market began with a handful of farmers, many with exotic and subtropical fruits, and has grown to include many longtime and new farmers who raise a stunning variety of food and farm products – fruits, vegetables, honey, meats,
WHO ARE YOUR MOST POPULAR VENDORS?
Well, that depends on which customer you ask! Everyone has a different favorite

Our most popular products are our seasonal fresh fruits and vegetables – whether it’s heirloom tomatoes or fruits rarely available like cherimoyas. People frequent the Vista Farmers’ Market for the direct contact with farmers who grow fresh produce of all types.
ON ANY GIVEN WEEK, APPROXIMATELY HOW MANY VISITORS ATTEND THE MARKET?
We host 3,500 to 4,000 customers depending on the season and the weather.
ASIDE FROM FRESH PRODUCE OR FOOD, WHAT OTHER ITEMS CAN BE FOUND AT THE MARKET?
High-quality, handcrafted items sold by their maker. While the Vista Farmers’ Market focuses on farm produce and foodmakers, we also have makers of other items; people like Joe the potter, Joy the soapmaker, and Katherine who designs and creates clothing. There are a variety of wood, ceramic, spa, textile, and other gifts available each week as well, all sold by the person who makes them.
DO ANY FOOD VENDORS CARRY ORGANICALLY GROWN PRODUCE OR CUISINE?
We have a variety of organic crops,
as well as farm products that are “transitional” in that they are no or low spray, no artificial fertilizers, etc. The beauty of a farmers’ market is that you can ask and see for yourself. Keep in mind that these are small farmers and they eat what they grow, so they keep it safe for their family and for you. Each organic farmer is inspected to assure that they are following all organic regulations.
TELL US ABOUT THE COST BENEFITS OF SHOPPING AT THE VISTA FARMERS’ MARKET.
The Vista Farmers’ Market has the freshest produce with the widest variety of any market in North County San Diego. If you compare the value of eating truly fresh vegetables and fruit and getting fresh meats, the price is a great value and you are supporting the local economy and community. Produce at the Vista market, in price alone, ranges from more to less than local markets but it is always fresher and from the farmer. Customers who shop at the market range from those who simply want a great peach or tomato to those who want to make jam at home or juice their own oranges.
WHAT SETS VISTA FARMERS’ MARKET APART FROM OTHER MARKETS IN THE AREA?
There are a number of subtle actions and values that set the Vista Farmers’ Market apart from other markets. Two are size and focus. We are the largest market in North County San Diego, have been serving farmers for twice as long, and have more actual farmers and a wider variety of local farm crops than most any farmers’ market in the county. We also focus on farmers and makers, relegating non-makers to less frequent events. Many farmers’ markets around the country, state, and county fill their empty spaces with people selling items from China or other areas of the world. We do not. At our market honey is sold by the beekeeper, eggs by the chicken farmer, and wool by the sheep rancher, not by people simply buying and re-selling. Likewise for all of our farmers. In addition, our fee structure charges farmers less
26 • 92081Magazine.com • September | October 2015
than any other market in the county in an effort to help farmers keep farming.
HOW WILL THE MARKET CHANGE WHEN SUMMER ENDS AND FALL ARRIVES?
We will see peaches, pears, strawberries, and other fruits continue into the fall, and they’ll be joined by the wonderful
abundance of our normal and exotic fruits and vegetables too – fuyu persimmons, apples, and grapes are at their best in fall.
IF YOU COULD DESCRIBE VISTA FARMERS’ MARKET IN FIVE WORDS, WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?
Longest-running real farmers market.
ARE THERE ANY UPCOMING EVENTS THAT YOU’D LIKE OUR READERS TO KNOW ABOUT?
Our last Wellness event of the year happens on Saturday, Oct. 3. The market celebrates its birthday every fall with a free piece of cake for customers. ¢

er curriculum vitae showcases a career committed to improving higher education, empowering women’s leadership, and increasing opportunities for underrepresented student populations. President of California State University San Marcos (CSUSM) and Vista resident since 2004, Dr. Karen Haynes is leading the collaboration of the college and community. “When I started my presidency at CSUSM, I felt a strong commitment to doing what was best for this region: educating traditionally underserved and diverse student populations, and those who would stay in our region and give back to their communities after graduation,” Karen explained. As a firstgeneration college graduate herself who advanced to complete her doctorate in social work, Karen understands the challenges and impacts intimately. “I am, first and foremost, a macro-practitioner of social work,” she acknowledged. “Today we have gained national recognition for our efforts to attract and support traditionally underrepresented student populations, including ethnic minorities, Native Americans, veterans, and former foster youth.” For the last decade Karen has led CSUSM in considerable growth: doubling the number of buildings, opening the off-campus center in Temecula, greatly increasing the number of academic
28 • 92081Magazine.com • September | October 2015
programs, and more than doubling student enrollment to nearly 14,000. “This year I shook the hands of some 2,650 proud CSUSM graduates. Every year when I see them walk across that stage, diverse in every aspect, I can’t help but be proud of what we are achieving together,” Karen shared. Karen’s decision to relocate to Vista and accept the position at CSUSM was grounded in the school and community. “At the time, the university was only 14 years old. I saw that many people were drawn here for the same reason I was – to mold a new, truly unique and innovative university,” Karen stated. Her husband, Jim Mickelson, is the Director of ACE Scholars Services, supporting former foster youth at CSUSM and co-author of a textbook with Karen. Their professional lives were paired with parenting; they have three adult children and four grandchildren living across the United States. Heading into her second decade at the helm of CSUSM, Karen looks forward to celebrating the school’s 25th anniversary. “For a quarter of a century, there has been great synergy between the university and our region. We have literally grown up together, coming of age as we have helped create and were fed and nurtured by our region’s businesses, organizations, schools, neighborhoods, and cities,” Karen stated.

n honor of Ovarian Cancer Awareness month in September, the Soroptimist International of Vista (SIV) recently invited three ovarian cancer survivors from The Ovarian Cancer Alliance of San Diego’s (OCASD) Hope, Experiences, Awareness, and Risks (HEAR) program to give a talk at their recent luncheon meeting. The topic of discussion was “Ovarian Cancer: If Only I Knew Then What I Know Now” and emphasized key points about women’s health, including body awareness as well as symptoms and risk factors of ovarian cancer. Cindy Silver, a seven-year survivor of Stage IV ovarian cancer shared, “Our hope is that women will benefit from the experiences and knowledge we have gained from our personal cancer journeys.” The conversation covered other important topics including the importance of being your own advocate and getting care in a timely fashion. The group commented, “Because it is possible for doctors to misdiagnose, dismiss symptoms, or delay treatment, women need to be aware of their own bodies.” The HEAR program also recently received a $10,000 grant from another local Soroptimist club to expand their speaking program.
SIV is a community group made up of women who seek to make a difference through community service and philanthropy. Their work includes providing scholarships to women in need and grants to organizations which fight domestic violence and/or human trafficking, or organizations who work to improve access to health education and services for women and girls.

The free event took place at the Vista Civic Center and featured lessons for improving online marketing, search engine results, and website creation. The workshop is part of Google’s Get Your Business Online program which aims to educate community members, business owners, and civic leaders; help businesses succeed in growing their online presence; and improve the economic well-being of the community through the support of local small business. According to a nationwide study, four out of five consumers use search engines to find local information nearby, yet only 37 percent
of businesses have claimed their listing on a search engine. The workshop emphasized that by providing driving directions to their business or listing their phone number or hours of operation online, businesses allow customers to find their information in less time. The City of Vista Mayor Judy Ritter said, “Local businesses keep our communities strong. When we help them to succeed on the web, they make our communities even stronger.” The Get Your Business Online program provides small businesses with a free website as well as free tools, training, and resources to help their business succeed on the web.

Susan Rhodes Makes it Her Mission to Give Dogs a Second Chance at Life by MICHELLE TREMBLAY | photo by Dawn at Nicoli Productions
F
or Susan Rhodes, family is everything – including all the dogs that come her way. “I consider each and every one of them to be a part of my family,” shared Susan. There was one dog in particular that happened to change Susan’s life forever – a pit bull-mastiff mix named Kira. “When I was living in Mexico in 2012 I came across a very sick, emaciated, and wounded dog. It was quite a shocking sight,” recalled Susan. “She was covered in ticks and fleas and was on the verge of collapsing from dehydration, malnourishment, and deep wounds.” Susan felt compelled to help Kira. “I felt a very strong connection to her for some reason,” she remembered. “It truly was love at first sight for me.” After ignoring a veterinarian’s suggestion to put Kira to sleep, Susan dedicated four long months to rehabilitating the dog. “The beauty about this little angel was that in nurturing her back to health, I too was rehabilitated,” she shared. “She brought me back to life in a time when I was lost and lonely.” Needless to say, Kira became Susan’s best friend. So when Kira passed away in March 2014, Susan was devastated. “I made a promise to her that I would continue to do this work of rescuing other dogs that had been abused like she had,” stated Susan. “I woke up the morning after she passed and this name just flowed out of me – K9 International Rescue Association (KIRA).” Today, Susan's nonprofit KIRA has a mission to rescue abused and neglected dogs, and to rehabilitate them to do the same for a person in need of love. “Our goal is to give these dogs a second chance at life,” explained Susan. “This mutual interchange of unconditional love makes us better people and when we live in that light, I believe we give off positive energy to others around us.” In early August, KIRA had its first Annual Surf N' Paws Fundraiser. “It was a huge success and a whole lot of fun!” exclaimed Susan. While the fundraiser was a triumph, Susan emphasized the need for more volunteers, fosters, and donations. “If I could grant KIRA one wish it would be to have a fully equipped facility with a medical staff, as well as professionals to train and certify the rescues to be service animals,” she shared. “We believe that by working together we can have the biggest impact for those that have been forgotten and neglected.” Group: Mission:

City officials have chosen the Vista Academy for Performing Arts’ Linda Rhoades Neighborhood Center, Liz Duran Park, and Raintree Park for renovations which will include lighting the basketball courts and replacing the soccer turf. These enhancements will also allow the City to improve energy efficiency, create cost savings, and benefit the environment. The funds come from a larger $34 million grant from the California Department of Housing and Community Development (CDHCD) that recently awarded funds to cities throughout California for use
in park-related capital asset improvement projects, including new parks and recreation facilities, community centers, playgrounds, and improvements to existing parks. The Housing-Related Parks (HRP) Program is
funded through Proposition IC, the Housing and Emergency Shelter Trust Fund Act of 2006, and is designed to reward local governments participating in the development of affordable housing with grant funds to create or rehabilitate parks. The City of Vista originally submitted a grant application for $890,500 but was notified that the City qualified for a higher award based on Vista’s Regional Housing Needs Assessment bonus points. For more information on the HRP contact the CDHCD at 916-263-7400 and for more information on the City of Vista’s park improvements visit www.cityofvista.com. ¢

:::: REAL ESTATE WATCH
For Sale by Owner?
Here are a Few Things to Think About A
s Realtors we often hear that it really isn’t necessary to hire a Realtor to help you sell your home. Why not save the commission and sell the home yourself? Although that may be the case for some homeowners, statistics have shown that less than 10 percent of these homes actually sell. Here are two important things to think about: Do you totally understand the purchase agreement once you get an offer from a potential buyer? This is very important considering you may be agreeing to items that you don’t know you have agreed to. Also there are a lot of timelines, clauses, and contingencies you need to be aware of. As your Realtors it is our job to make sure you totally understand what the purchase agreement states and exactly what you are agreeing to. Exposure of your listing on the internet is another factor to consider. For sale by owners are limited in their online exposure as very few websites allow for sale by owners to post their homes for sale. As your Realtors we have the tools to market your home on the internet and get you as much exposure as we can. Statistics have shown that the majority of people find their future homes on the internet.
Hopefully we have given you a couple of things to think about. If for sale by owner is the route you are thinking of taking, we ask that you give us just a few minutes of your time to show you why we believe we should be your first choice for all of your real estate needs. ¢
