Happy Mother’s Day
I
have been blessed with great mothers surrounding me throughout my life. As we celebrate Mother’s Day each year, I often reflect on my childhood, teenage years, and young adulthood. I was raised by a very strong and supportive mother, and as a first grandchild, I also spent many of my younger years with my grandmother. Unfortunately, these two wonderful women are no longer with us today, but the memories and life lessons that I received from them are forever held close to my heart. Having lost my mother to a tragic automobile accident back in 2010 and my grandmother to cancer more recently, you would think that Mother’s Day would approach with some apprehension. However, much to my pleasant surprise, I’ve discovered that Mother’s Day has become one of the most meaningful holidays of the year. Even though the day typically starts with a brief moment of sadness – more like a period of reflection – it quickly turns into a very deep and significant day. Not only do I have an opportunity to celebrate the great memories surrounding my mother and grandmother, I also have the privilege of having several more fantastic mothers that still surround me, support me, and make our lives more meaningful. While there are too many wonderful mothers in our friends and family sphere to mention in this letter, I would like to take a moment to recognize a few of them. First on the list, I would like to thank my wonderful wife, Jessica, for being such an awesome mother to our three kids (as well as many of the neighborhood kids). There are quite a few kiddos around the community (some adults in college now) that have grown Derrick Breaux up calling her “Momma” Breaux. We are all lucky to have you do Publisher what you do. Happy Mother’s Day, Jessica! I would also like to take a moment to send a heartfelt thank you to my mother-in-law Trish and mother-in-law Doreen. Not only are you both incredible influences on our family, but you are also wonderful grandmothers to our kids. We are all extremely happy to have you be a major part of our lives. Happy Mother’s Day, Trish and Doreen! And last but not least, I would like to recognize my sister on this Mother’s Day. Not only is she a great sister, she is also a wonderful mother. I find great joy in watching the way she raises her three children, often displaying the incredibly familiar and nurturing parenting that our mother used with the two of us growing up. It warms my heart beyond words. Happy Mother’s Day, Angelique! And happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers in the world (past and present) that have impacted our lives. May this Mother’s Day be filled with lots of hugs, special memories, love, and laughter – and maybe some tears.

Flying WI T H I N VI S I B L E WI NG S Student Star Vaness Xu Skates Her Way into the Hearts of Her Community by KELLEY GUSICH | photos by Spark Photography
O
nly seven years old, Mira Mesa resident Vaness Xu started ice skating when she was three, and is now the youngest skater in her level six class. Convenience to many ice rinks is one of the main reasons she loves living in Mira Mesa, but she also loves being close to the long list of Asian restaurants and markets in the vicinity. A second grader at Ellen Browning Scripps Elementary School, Vaness likes the teachers and her schoolmates best. “I learn a lot from the teachers, and the schoolmates are very friendly.” “My favorite subjects in school are drawing, reading, writing, and PE,” Vaness shared. “I am free to use my imagination when I draw. Reading introduces me to new worlds. In writing, I can create my own stories and read them to other people, and I can stay active all the time in PE.” Outside of school, she likes soccer and swimming, and has a new favorite activity in chess, which she started learning after school last year. Vaness has already won her first chess tournament, at the 2018 American Youth Championship, competing in the age K-6 non-rated section and winning all 10 games to receive the first place trophy. Another favorite pastime is reading, with fictional novels, National

Geographic magazine for kids, and Chinese poems topping her reading list. In skating, Vaness has been competing, just like she does in chess. In the same level competitions, she is always the youngest one and has won two first place and three third place awards. As far as her inspiration, “I look up to Yuna Kim,” she explained. “She is very graceful on the ice and has won Olympic championships. I will work hard to improve my skills for competitions.” She’s always at her best during figure skating, because it’s like dancing on ice to the music. Her entire body, including her brain, coordinates so she can move smoothly across the cold surface. “When I go fast, I feel like I am flying with invisible wings, and into the sky when I jump,” Name: Vaness Xu (7) Vaness smiled. “The world School: Ellen Browning Scripps Elementary School is peaceful yet rhythmic.” Grade: 2 And while Vaness continues Parents: Youyuan Xu (mother) and Wei Wang (father) to enjoy her childhood Sibling: Zephyr Wang (5) figure skating, she hopes to Favorite Local Spot: Scripps Miramar Ranch Library someday become a police officer when she grows up. “I want to protect Know a student that should be profiled in 92131 Magazine? and help people,” Recommend a student online at www.92131magazine.com. explained Vaness.

COMMUNITY THE NORINE FAMILY LOVES LIFE IN SCRIPPS RANCH by KELLEY GUSICH photo by Blake Miller Photography
T
he Norine family adores living in Scripps Ranch, with holiday parties in the street, men’s poker night, and children constantly playing outside. Jason and Terra, roommates in their younger years, eventually fell in love and got married. “We did things a bit backwards,” Terra said. Today, Jason owns a hedge fund and manages clients’ financial portfolios, and Terra is a STEM and technology consultant, working with local school districts and universities. She is extremely passionate about education and children. Jason and Terra’s boys, Cade and Carter, attend school in Scripps, with Cade as a TKer at Jerabek Elementary and Carter at the Trails preschool. Both boys, as well as their parents, love soccer. Jason plays for the Old Pros soccer league, and the boys play NCSP Poway, FUTSOL at Alliant University, and Scripps Ranch League. Cade plays yearround because soccer is his favorite, but also enjoys baseball, basketball, and piano. Carter plays tee-ball and has recently started hockey. Because of their mother’s work, both have been exposed to engineering and robotics

since birth, and are also very involved in church, attending Vacation Bible School, Awana, and Sunday School each week. Terra teaches after-school enrichment robotics classes to students at Jerabek and the money goes back into the STEM program. She also teaches robotics in her sons’ classes twice per month, and volunteers teaching robotics in several low-income schools to inspire and motivate children. Jason and Terra volunteer in the boys’ classrooms and Jason volunteers as a coach for several local soccer and baseball teams – spending about three days a week coaching both boys’ teams. The whole family is very involved in a local women’s shelter, putting on a yearly Christmas party for the women and their children. “It is very important to us that these women and children get a special Christmas with all of the chaos happening in their life,” Terra said. The boys take part as well.” Cade and Carter love to give and help others – they send letters to children at a local shelter and take 50 percent of their allowance and donate it to this shelter.” Because of Terra’s love for children, on any given day there are at least five additional kids running around the house. “Kids will come knock on the door and ask if I can play,” Terra exclaimed. “My kids and husband are all shy and very quiet – and then there is me.”

Golfing for a Better Life
TOBY WELLS FOUNDATION GOLF CLASSIC WILL HELP KIDS AND ANIMALS
T
he Toby Wells Foundation will hold its 17th Annual Toby Wells & Craig Castaneda Golf Classic on June 8 at the Barona Creek Golf Club in Lakeside. The tournament is the foundation’s primary fundraising tool to fund all of the programs that provide support to hundreds of underprivileged children and neglected animals throughout San Diego County and other parts of Southern California. The Toby Wells Foundation was first established after Adrienne Wells and April West began searching for ways to raise funds and awareness and honor the memory of their brother Toby, who died 18 years ago from medical complications after paralysis from a swimming accident. The tournament began shortly after the foundation’s establishment, when the Wells family purchased a 300-acre ranch called Blue Apple Ranch.
The ranch is populated with several types of rescued animals who are cared for by disenfranchised and disabled children. Toby was known for his love of animals and frequently rescued dogs in animal shelters. Proceeds from the tournament will go to funding a one-day, outdoor afternoon of fun for 250 local foster youth through the nonprofit Voices for Children, field trips for children of military households through the Armed Services YMCA, a workreadiness internship for foster youth at San Pasqual Academy
and at-risk youth from Abraxas High School and Warner Springs High School, a holiday shopping spree for Polinsky Children’s Center and the Armed Services YMCA whereby each child receives a $200 gift card to WalMart, and assisting in caring for Blue Apple Ranch’s rescued animals. For more information about the foundation or to buy tickets to the tournament visit www.tobywells.org.

Heather Leann Chell Third grade teacher and higher ed professor at UCSD Extensions Scripps Ranch Traveling with family, planting succulents in my yard (my husband and I are always on the hunt for new varieties!), and dinner with friends Coffee and pastries at the French Oven, soccer with my daughter at Jerabek or Cypress Canyon Park, a quiet spot at the Scripps Ranch Library, walking our dogs in the neighborhood with my husband, son and daughter, and Yanni’s Bar & Grill
W
hen Heather Chell was a young student, she had a difficult time learning in school. She remembered many of her teachers not knowing how to respond to her learning challenges. As an adult, Heather used this memory as motivation to acquire her own teaching credential and help other students learn in a way that they could thrive. “I wanted to be a teacher and learn how to teach children who needed someone who understands what it’s like to not always understand,” said Heather. “I wanted to approach teaching with a multifaceted lens, knowing that not all students fit in the same box and that students need different approaches to learning material.” Today, Heather is a third grade teacher at Jerabek Elementary School in Scripps Ranch. “I wear a lot of hats at Jerabek,” noted Heather. “First and foremost, I am a classroom teacher who teaches to the individual needs of each of my students.” Heather is also the lead teacher at her grade level, administrative designee when the school principal is off campus, and the Site Governance Team co-chair. “I love my jobs!” she exclaimed.
Although she has her work cut out for her, Heather wouldn’t have it any other way. “I love Jerabek for so many reasons,” she shared. “The community support is the first thing that comes to mind when I think of this community. When anybody needs anything, they are here to rally and provide whatever that may be. Our parents donate in the way of time, money, personal talents.” Heather’s own two children, Reese (11) and Evan (13) were “Jerabekians,” as Heather would say. “I couldn’t be more proud to say that,” Heather said. As if she doesn’t do enough for the school, Heather also gives back by volunteering in setting up the school’s new STEM lab. “(My volunteer work) included everything from assembling furniture, engaging in conversations about the overall vision, and training for Piper computers and our new 3D printer,” described Heather. As she plans for her future, Heather sees Jerabek remaining a big part of her life. “I see my work at Jerabek continuing even after I eventually retire,” she said. “I have given my heart to this school and will continue to do so through volunteerism.”

TALENT IN TRAINING Studio West Offers Music Production Camps for Young Musicians
S
tudio West has been San Diego’s premier recording studio for over 40 years, but recently some new clients have been working there. In 2015, owner Peter Dyson started a series of week-long music production camps for middle and high school students, largely due to his own children’s musical journey. “My daughter plays the harp and my son is a drummer. They both had amazing teachers and great experiences performing with various ensembles, but a recording studio is a different environment that helps musicians grow.” The week-long camps involve instruction in songwriting, production and performance. Many students have a background in music theory and traditional instruments, but it’s not a requirement. “A laptop is now a musical instrument, just like a piano or guitar, but to play it requires the same instruction, discipline, and hard work that’s required for more traditional instruments,” said Dyson.
Performing in a studio is intimidating, but students rise to the occasion. As the lead instructor, San Diego songwriter, performer, and father of two multi-instrumentalist preteen boys Shawn Rohlf explains it, “I’m amazed at the musicianship and work ethic of the kids. If they are this good now, where will they be in 10 years?” At the end of the week, parents and students listen to the songs that students have written and produced over the week. The experience leaves many ready for more. As student Chrysta Hlavacek (17) puts it, “Making music with talented artists is my dream job, and going to Studio West helps me get there.”

Recognizing Autism Research and Contributions
During the month of April, National Autism Awareness Month, Councilmember Mark Kersey proclaimed April 10 to be National Foundation for Autism Research Day in the City of San Diego. The National Foundation for Autism Research (NFAR) is based in Scripps Ranch and serves children with autism and their families. More than 20 NFAR board members, families, and supporters joined Councilmember Kersey as he presented the proclamation. He specifically highlighted NFAR Tech, the branch that provides technical training and employment skills to those with autism. “I’m proud to recognize NFAR for giving these talented, sometimes overlooked individuals an opportunity to learn in an environment designed for their success,” said Councilmember Kersey. “Everyone deserves the chance to become self-sufficient and contribute to the workplace in their unique way.” NFAR Tech has already helped place 30 internships and jobs within San Diego’s technology industry for those on the autism spectrum. To learn more visit www.nfar.org.
Dances With Words at the Library The Scripps Miramar Ranch Library recently presented Dances with Words, a special performance combining the talents of language columnist and author Richard Lederer with the folk-singing humor and music of Bill Shipper.

Richard is a best-selling author, with 50 books about language, history, and humor. Richard’s syndicated column, “Lederer on Language,” appears in newspapers and magazines throughout the United States, including the San Diego Union-Tribune. Bill, a Memphis native, has had his witty songs such as “My Lover Loves Liver” played on several folk and country radio stations, making audiences laugh and sing along for over 30 years. Dances with Words was sponsored by Scripps Ranch Friends of the Library as part the 25th anniversary celebration of the library’s opening. For more information about SRFOL visit www.srfol.org.
2018 Woman of the Year Scripps Ranch resident Cheryl Shaw was recently named the 77th Assembly District’s Woman of the Year for her volunteer work supporting disaster relief and public safety. “Cheryl Shaw is a committed volunteer and resolute leader,” said Assemblymember Brian Maienschein. “Her wholehearted support for victims of the 2003 Cedar Fire and 2007 Witch Creek Fire contributed so much to the community.” Cheryl has been chair of the Scripps Ranch Civic Association Neighborhood Watch since 2010. Since then, the group has grown to the largest neighborhood watch group in the county. She organizes an annual Night Out every August to strengthen ties between neighbors and law enforcement, fire safety, and local government offices. She and her husband, Mike, have two children and five grandchildren who are all local. The Woman of the Year program began in 1987 as a State of California effort to celebrate extraordinary women and commemorate Women’s History Month.

iramar Reservoir, known as Miramar Lake to locals, is a popular spot for running, bicycling, and fishing for the Scripps Miramar Ranch community. The reservoir, however, serves a greater purpose for the entirety of San Diego County. We talk with Director of Public
Utilities Department Vic Bianes to learn more about the reservoir’s functions, history, and amenities.

Miramar Reservoir Provides Recreation and Necessities for the Community photos by Spark Photography
Q&A with Director of Public Utilities Department Vic Bianes What is the history behind Miramar Reservoir? When was it first built and what was its purpose? Miramar Reservoir is owned and operated by the City of San Diego Public Utilities Department as part of the City’s municipal drinking water system. Miramar Reservoir is located in what was once a small, naturally dry canyon. The reservoir is formed by an earth-fill dam in the canyon. The dam was completed in 1960 by the City’s Water Department, now Public Utilities Department. Since its creation, the reservoir has impounded
only imported water from the Colorado River and Northern California conveyed to the reservoir in aqueducts operated by the San Diego County Water Authority. Essentially no runoff from the surrounding local watershed flows into the reservoir.
The purpose of Miramar Reservoir is to provide a backup supply of water for the adjacent Miramar Water Treatment Plant should water not be available from the imported aqueduct. The reservoir also serves to regulate or “balance” flows from the aqueduct to the treatment plant.
What is the reservoir’s mission? Miramar Reservoir is a key feature of the City of San Diego’s public water system, which is operated by the Public Utilities Department. The mission of the Public Utilities Department is to provide reliable water utility services that protect the health of our communities and the environment. Tell us more about the grounds and property. How large is the reservoir? At the normal operating level, the surface area of the reservoir is 183 acres, and it holds 5,500

and 25 bluegill or sunfish in aggregate, with no limit of other species.
Miramar Reservoir is very popular for bicycling, jogging, walking, rollerblading, and picnicking. A paved service road encircles the reservoir and runs 4.92 miles. Vehicular traffic is permitted on this road seven days a week during normal operating days and hours.
Can you talk about the Miramar Water Treatment Plant? What is its purpose?
There are 18 barbecues and 48 picnic tables located around the lake. Patrons can bring their own gas barbecues for use in designated areas only. No ground fires or glass containers are allowed. Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times and at least 50 feet away from the water. Dogs are not allowed on any boats. Overnight camping is not allowed at Miramar Reservoir. There is a concession at Miramar Reservoir that sells snacks, drinks, fishing tackle, and bait. Boat rentals are also available on a firstcome basis only, no reservations. Fisherpersons must purchase a daily fishing permit, as well as possess a valid California fishing license. The reservoir has Florida-strain large-mouth bass, bluegill, channel catfish, and sunfish. Minimum size limit for bass is 12 inches. Fish limits are five bass, five catfish,
The Miramar Water Treatment Plant, which is immediately adjacent to the reservoir, was constructed at about the same time as the dam and reservoir. It began operation in 1962. The plant provides drinking water to about 550,000 customers in the northern section of the City of San Diego, as well as to residents in the City of Del Mar. The plant’s capacity is 144 million gallons of treated drinking water per day. The City recently completed a 14-year multi-phase expansion and upgrade project to ensure future customer demands and more stringent drinking water standards and regulations are met. Since 2012, the Miramar Water Treatment Plant has participated in the American Water Works Association’s Partnership for Safe Water Program, which involved an extensive self-assessment and optimization program and report. Based on the plant’s staff’s efforts and documented reporting, the plant was awarded the Partnership’s Director’s Award in November 2012. In continuing its efforts to achieve a more

fully optimized system, the Miramar Water Treatment Plant was subsequently awarded the Partnership’s President’s Award in June 2013. Currently, there are only five other treatment plants in the United States that have achieved this prestigious award. What is your role with the reservoir? What are some of your duties or responsibilities? As department director, my role is to lead the City of San Diego’s Public Utilities Department in providing high-quality water, wastewater, recycled water, and in the case of our reservoirs, recreational services for our customers. The City has an experienced professional team of reservoir keepers, rangers, and recreational staff to maintain the reservoirs, provide safety for our patrons, and oversee all recreational activities at all nine of the City’s reservoirs. It is incredibly rewarding to lead this team of devoted professionals who are dedicated to providing high-quality water, wastewater, and recreational services for all San Diegans. The value of our reservoirs cannot be overstated. We work continuously to ensure the highest of water quality in our reservoirs in order to provide a safe and reliable water supply for our customers. We also have the
added benefit of creating public recreation opportunities for all to enjoy. How is the reservoir maintained and funded? All of the water system infrastructure at Miramar, including the dam, the outlet and inlet works, the reservoir basin, the unoccupied land around the reservoir, and the water itself, are maintained by the City’s water system using water ratepayer funds. Recreation facilities and programs, on the other hand, are funded by general tax money from residents of the City of San Diego, or by on-site user fees. This includes the public parking areas, picnic grounds, comfort station, boats, and fishing docks. No water ratepayer money is used to support the recreation program. How many staff members work on the property? Can you tell us more about their roles? We currently have four reservoir staff assigned to Miramar Reservoir. Reservoir staff patrols and safeguards the dam and reservoir property for the protection of dam safety and the public water supply, and carries out dam and reservoir maintenance and repairs. Staff also provides assistance to the recreating public, enforces reservoir rules and regulations, and responds to incidents at the reservoir involving the public. Does the reservoir offer any opportunities for school/group field trips or other large events? Yes, event organizers must complete a ground use application. If you would like to hold an event at Miramar Reservoir please contact our office at 619-668-2050 for additional information. Does the reservoir need volunteers? How should those interested in volunteering get involved? Yes, the Reservoir Recreation Program is always looking for volunteers to assist with the program.

T
he Scripps Miramar Ranch Library and the Friends of the Library (SRFOL) recently celebrated its 25th anniversary with its fundraiser Celebrate25: An Evening to Remember. The Scripps Miramar Ranch Library was first established as a storefront location in 1986, and then opened its current location in 1993. Celebrate25 was a way to honor Scripps Ranch history and the work the library and SRFOL have done to serve the community. Approximately 120 guests were in attendance and enjoyed a night of tasty hors d’oeuvres, live music, libations including wine and beer donated by Ballast Point and the new local Savagewood Brewing Company, and a silent auction. The courtyard at the library was decorated with hundreds of twinkling lights, and despite the rainy weather, guests took part in docent-led tours featuring the history and art of the library and danced to the music of the Scripps Ranch Rock-N-
Blues Band. The night was also emceed by Scripps Ranch resident and Sunny 98.1 host Dave Mason. The SRFOL has raised more than $15,000 so far of its goal of $25,000. Donations are still being accepted to reach that goal and all donations will be matched by the SRFOL. With this money, the SRFOL is looking to add sustainable landscape features to the library courtyard, including a shade structure and additional seating for reading and relaxing.

The Butterfly Effect at Scripps Ranch High
T
he Butterfly Effect initiative has moved its way into the Scripps Ranch High (SRHS) campus. The Butterfly Effect, founded by Tasha Wahl in 2013, is an international organization established in San Diego and has become a growing initiative in the Scripps Ranch community. Butterfly Effect consists of two main projects: Wahl2Wahl installations and butterfly drops, which are both currently taking place on the SRHS campus. These installations are large murals of a butterfly created to not only keep the message of positivity and kindness in the minds of those who pass it, but also to beautify the environment surrounding it. Along with the installation, The Butterfly Effect Club members have initiated monthly butterfly drops, in which a student artist paints a small wooden butterfly, which is then hidden somewhere on campus. Hints are then posted about where the butterfly is on social media. The student who finds it and brings it into the counseling office first will have $250 donated in their name to the charity or
organization of their choice. So far, three students have found the butterflies and donated the money to an organization that speaks to them. The winners include Sara Tombe, who donated to A21, Shannon Le, who donated to The Global Partnership for Education, and Evan Dicker, who donated to the American Cancer Society. Both of these projects are done to introduce SRHS students and members of the community to the extraordinary feeling that comes from doing good in the community, and show what they can do to create a positive impact in the world.

Summer Fun Returns at the San Diego County Fair by LAINEY KRAL photos ©agezinder/123RF.COM
O
ne of San Diego’s most beloved traditions returns on June 1. The San Diego County Fair – whose theme this year is How Sweet It Is! – was first established in 1880 and arrived at its current home, the Del Mar Fairgrounds, in 1936. The fair has undergone a number of name changes over the past 138 years, and though the name was changed back to the original San Diego County Fair in 2002, many locals still know it as the Del Mar Fair. The fair offers a wide range of attractions and events, from famously adventurous fair food to dizzying carnival rides. Community members of all ages have the opportunity to showcase their talents as well, with competitions and exhibitions for collections, crafts, wine and beer, fine art, fashion, floral design, and of course, livestock of all shapes and sizes. Summer concerts are another popular draw, and this year includes a variety of artists from Little Big Town to Kansas and more. The fair will run June 1 through July 4, and is closed Mondays and Tuesdays in June. Hours vary from day to day, so check times and find out about more special events at www.sdfair.com.

BEAT THE HEAT!
PLAN FOR PARKING!
Check the weather ahead of time and dress in comfortable clothes for walking. Sunscreen, sunglasses, and hats are a good idea for sunny days, and bring a water bottle if you're staying all day.
Onsite parking is available, as well as free offsite parking with shuttle service to the fair. Due to crowds and traffic, getting there can be hectic – be sure to leave with plenty of time to get to any special events you’re looking forward to.

R E A L E S TAT E W AT C H
Reconsidering Mello-Roos after the New Tax Law by SCOTT VOAK
T
he newly-passed tax law and its limitation of $10K deduction for state and local taxes (income and property) means that most, if not all, people who are paying Mello-Roos fees have lost the ability to deduct them on their federal income taxes. What I’m trying to determine is if it’s a financially sound move to pay them off, and while I expected it to be an easy answer, there are several complications. The first revolves around any discount you might receive when you pay them off. I have one friend who, before he moved, paid off his Mello-Roos. He claimed that he paid off a $1,550/year payment that had 20 years left on it for $20,000. While these are round numbers, they would indicate that the bond carries an interest rate of approximately 5%. When the MelloRoos was deductible, this would have effectively been reduced to about 3%. Whether you pay it off depends on if you think you can earn more than 5% somewhere else. If you think you can make 7-9% on investment property out of state (our investors do), then you probably don’t pay it off. If you would otherwise put it in a CD making less than 1%, then it might make sense to eliminate the payment. On the other hand, I have a very smart friend who sells bonds for a living, including the Mello-Roos bonds. He claims that if you pay off your bond, you don’t get a discount, but have to pay the full amount. So, using
his explanation, my first friend would have had to pay $1,550 times 20, which would have been no discount and not made much sense at all. According to my bond-trading friend, you can only pay off the Mello-Roos at a discount when the house is first sold. He also brings up a very good point: we shouldn’t assume that the tax law will remain the same going forward. It is possible that the next administration may flip back and make all state taxes deductible. What is the right answer? I’ve got two smart people who have given conflicting information. So, what I am doing is filing a request for my personal Mello-Roos payoff. I should have that information by the next issue, and I will conclude this article with what I learn as well as information on how you can pay off your Mello-Roos if you decide to.
