:::: FROM THE PUBLISHER

Prom... Already?

must have been in denial. How could my daughter be old enough to go to prom? Where did the time go? I’m pretty sure that my wife and I were walking her into her first day of kindergarten class a couple of years ago. Apparently all of this sort of snuck up on me. How is it possible to have your oldest child go from diapers, to learning how to ride a bike, to having their first slumber party, to going to their prom – all in a few years? Well, that’s certainly how fast it seems that time has gone by in our household! To say that seeing our beautiful daughter all dressed up, smiling and laughing with her longtime friends and their dates, taking pictures, and getting ready to go to their prom had an impact on my wife and I would be an incredible understatement. As it turns out, I believe it was just as much of a coming of age moment for us as it was for our daughter. How in the heck did time go by so fast? Sure, I knew that it was coming. Our daughter’s date did a great job when he asked her to prom (I guess the process of asking someone to prom is a much bigger ordeal than it used to be in my day). My wife and daughter had spent several weeks searching for dresses and preparing for the event. I participated and offered my opinion when they would let me.

Then, out of nowhere, via text message from my wife and daughter, I received “the” photo of the dress that they were about to purchase. She looked beautiful. She looked all grown up. With mixed emotions, I reluctantly texted my approval. Reality check! Doesn’t this mean that I’m getting old too? How in the world did this happen? My wife and I had the privilege of joining a bunch of other parents to take photos of our kids and their prom dates before they all left for the event. We visited with parents that we have known for years. We saw many familiar faces of kids – all dressed to impress – that we have known since early elementary school. There were hugs. There were smiles. There was even an occasional tear as we all looked on and participated – often reflecting back to our own high school years. After seeing the group of kids leave for the evening, my wife and I began our short drive back to our house. We had both realized that our little family that we have nurtured over the years was growing up. As a parent, we know that this is inevitable. We just didn’t expect it to happen quite so fast.

CMRLL Celebrates a Quarter Century!

armel Mountain Ranch Little League (CMRLL) wrapped up it’s 25th anniversary with an incredible closing day ceremony celebration. The day was certainly one that players, parents and alumni will remember for a longtime. A special thank you goes out to the guests who joined in on the celebratory day. The founder and first president, Diane Harris, the first UIC, Bob Rosario, long time volunteer, Don Fenlanson, CMRLL alumni, Trevor Williams (now with Miami Marlins) and

Lauren Mario (the first female to hit a home run at the CMRLL Majors field) and all of the many past board members were in attendance to celebrate another great season. Having so many ‘veterans’ at the ceremony made the celebration that much more special and rewarding,” shared Ester Berry, President of CMRLL. To learn more about CMRLL and its dedication to the participants stemming from the communities of Carmel Mountain Ranch and Sabre Springs since 1989, visit www.cmrll.org. ¢

:::: STUDENT STAR

From Biking Across California to Running School Assemblies, Jack Baxter is an Inspiration by michelle tremblay | photos by Spark Photography

leven-year-old Jack Baxter feels lucky to have found good friends at Shoal Creek Elementary School. “What I like most about school is getting to hang out with my friends,” said Jack. “I think people are surprised to know my friends are really important to me.” Apart from his friends, Jack also holds a special place in his heart for animals. “We have a great dog that came from the humane society,” he offered, “and he got me interested in all kinds of animals and opportunities to help them.” So much so, that he hopes to one day have a career rescuing animals. “If I had to choose a career right now, I think it would be something like marine biology so I could work with beluga whales and dolphins,” he said. Jack’s passion for water goes beyond the animals that live in it. He Name: Jack Baxter Age: 11 School: Recently graduated from Shoal Creek Elementary, going to Meadowbrook Middle School in August Grade: Incoming 6th Parents: Tom & Gina Baxter Sibling: Brother – Michael (9)

enjoys surfing, paddle boarding and swimming at the beach. And on camping trips to Catalina and Camp Pendleton, he became interested in snorkeling and kayaking. His camping skills recently came in handy on a charity bike ride called Ride Across California that he and his father, Tom, participated. The ride – which required them to camp for a week straight – started in Yuma and ended in Encinitas with a lot of adventure along the way. “We biked by many different landscapes, through the deserts, mountains and sand dunes and finished the ride at the beach! We came across some challenges like 30 mile per hour winds through Plaster City which was really tough!” he described. But it wasn’t all hard work. He and the group made sure to stop for some fun along the way. Highlights included eating apple pie in Julian and having the chance to pick fresh strawberries in the local fields. Jack did all this while receiving encouragement from his friends. “It was fun at night to see all my friends sending texts to see how I was doing!” said Jack. “I was very inspired by my friends who supported me on the bike ride.” It’s safe to say that Jack is motivated by his friends, and the feeling appears to be mutual. For the last few years Jack has been voted onto student council by his peers. “I have been on student council for three years at Shoal Creek playing the roles of publicity and treasurer. I help lead Friday assemblies each week and organize fundraisers for the school,” he explained. Now as he gets ready to attend sixth grade at Meadowbrook Middle School this August, Jack is looking forward to making the move with his current friends and having the opportunity to make new ones…Oh yeah, and he can’t wait for his own locker! 

Hustle & Bustle A Day in the Life of County Supervisor Dave Roberts by JENNIFER FRAKES | photos by Spark Photography

Name: Age: Community: Profession: Family:

Dave Roberts 52 Solana Beach County Supervisor Partner: Wally Children: Robert (17), Alex (12), Julian (9), Joe (5) and Natalee (4)

or County Supervisor Dave Roberts, there’s never a dull moment in the day. “Our house really bustles at 6 a.m. as we get our five kids ready for their day and have breakfast together. I drop off our two oldest children at school and then head to my office at the county building or to meetings in the district,” revealed Dave, who can often be seen having one-on-one coffees with his constituents. Dave represents the Third District which runs from University City through Encinitas on the coast and from Grantville to Escondido on the I-15 corridor and includes almost all areas in between. As a county supervisor, Dave enjoys being involved in the public process. “I am passionate about preserving and protecting our fragile environment and working on solar and other energy initiatives. Another goal I share with all of my colleagues is keeping the county fiscally solvent while continuing to deliver the best possible services to the public,” related Dave. He began his career as a public servant as a volunteer and advocate for the Solana Beach Branch Library and served two terms on the Solana Beach City Council. According to Dave, public

service runs in his family: His mother formerly worked for United States Senator Prescott Bush (the father and grandfather of two presidents) and his father is a retired state government parks and forestry executive. Family is a huge part of Dave’s life. He and his partner, Wally, adopted their five children from the County of San Diego’s foster care to adoption program, a program that Dave is passionate about. Dave enjoys spending time with Wally and their children and taking advantage of all San Diego has to offer. “We love to do things together as a family like hiking with our dog at the San Dieguito River Park. It is a tremendous privilege to live in such a beautiful place with great parks, schools and involved residents who care about making their communities better,” stated Dave, who also shared that he and his family live in the former home of late American music icon Patti Page. Whether Dave is out and about with his family, enjoying one of the many cultural events in San Diego or grabbing a cup of coffee between meetings, he encourages everyone to come up and say hello. “I really like to meet people. I love that part of the job,” said Dave. 

celebrating 25 Years of

Excellence Casa de las Campanas

his July, Casa de las Campanas celebrates its 25th year as San Diego’s only not-for-profit Type “A” continuing care retirement community (CCRC). Anniversary-month events kick off with another of our well-known “Taste of Casa” events. The annual event highlights the world-class fare enjoyed daily by Casa residents. This year’s “Taste of Casa” will mark the debut of recently-appointed Executive Chef Stephen Window. His formidable culinary credentials include being head chef at La Jolla’s award-winning Roppongi Restaurant and twice-featured chef at the James Beard House. “Chef Window teams up with our Registered Dietician Amy Jellison to create healthy, gourmet dishes for Casa residents,” said Marge Pronovost, Casa de las Campanas Marketing and Sales Director. “A Taste of Casa” gives invited guests a chance to sample the locally-grown, locally-sourced food that we feature,” she said. Casa de las Campanas will formally mark its 25th anniversary from July 22-26. Resident events will include an outdoor concert, an ice cream social at the community’s Bell Tower Park, a professional photographer, and strolling musicians for a formal Murder Mystery Dinner in the newly redesigned Dinner Theatre. The 23-acre residential community, nestled in the hills of Rancho Bernardo overlooking Lake Hodges, first opened on July 25, 1988. It has been one of the top-rated retirement communities in San Diego County ever since. The Casa de las Campanas Health Center has earned Medicare’s Five-Star Rating for skilled nursing facilities, Pronovost said. Community residents participate in over 40 different in-house clubs and committees, including reaching out to SPECIAL ADVERTISEMENT

the surrounding community. Casa residents, through their volunteer program Casa Residents for Education (CRE), have for years tutored first, second and third graders in the “Everyone’s A Reader” program at local elementary schools. Casa regularly partners with Recycle San Diego to sponsor electronics recycling events and, since 2010, the community has operated a worm farm that turns its kitchen waste into compost. “Casa’s on-going success is a true testament to our organizational model,” said Pronovost, “integrating resident perspectives with the vision of our local Board of Directors and the industry-specific expertise of our management company, Life Care Services LLC.” That model has insured Casa de las Campanas’ financial strength and stability, Pronovost said, and will continue to do so. She pointed to a master plan under development for the community. “This expansion will carry us to 2025,” said Steve Riddle, Casa de las Campanas President/Chairman of the Board. “What we’re trying to do is to keep Casa de las Campanas competitive into the future – making certain that we are offering the amenities and providing the lifestyle environment which the new generation of retiring ‘baby boomers’ will be looking for, while continuing to address the evolving needs of current residents.” ¢

Carmel Mountain Ranch Little League Volunteer Hopes to Make a Difference by michelle tremblay photos by Spark Photography

BIG MENTOR M Name: Age: Community: Profession: Family: Pet:

26 • 92128Magazine.com • July | August 2013

Mark Longstaff 48 Carmel Mountain Ranch Architect Wife – Julia; Son – Ryan Dog – Layla

ark Longstaff was born in England and is a huge supporter of English soccer. But on this side of the pond, he is involved with a different sport: baseball – specifically, Little League baseball, where he has been a volunteer for the Carmel Mountain Ranch Little League (CMRLL) for six years. Mark, who is a senior associate for an architecture firm downtown, has been married to his wife, Julia for 18 years. The couple have a son, Ryan, who is a 5th grader at Shoal Creek Elementary School, where Julia runs the front desk and Mark helps out in the school’s café every Friday. The family has resided in the Bluffs neighborhood of Carmel Mountain Ranch for 11 years and when asked what they like best about their community Mark replied, “We love the location, the beauty and the people!” For these reasons and more, Mark feels a need to give back to his community, and does so by volunteering with CMRLL. From helping with registration to revamping the snack stand to being an umpire for two years, Mark has worn many hats. And while he is eager to help CMRLL on “whatever needs to be done,” he admits that one of his favorite roles has been being manager for Ryan’s teams for the last three years. “I love teaching baseball as well as spending time with my son and this is a great way to do both!” he said. Mark’s strong commitment to CMRLL is fueled by his desire to teach kids the importance of establishing friendships, being teammates and loving the game of baseball. He hopes his efforts will help CMRLL to maintain its strong community ties and will encourage other parents to volunteer. “This league runs solely on volunteers,” he explained. “90% of being a volunteer is just showing up. If you show up we will put you to work. No role is too small.” 

Summer Games are Coming to the 4S Ranch Boys & Girls Club

or over a decade, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater San Diego have held a unique competition for all of their members on a designated summer day every year. This year, over 400 Boys & Girls Club members are expected to participate in an Olympic-styled competition on a day fun at the 4S Ranch Branch on Friday, July 12. The day includes ping-pong, basketball, soccer, swimming, dodgeball and track and field. “Our goal is to try to promote good sportsmanship while encouraging the importance of being physically fit. We also enjoy how the event lends itself the opportunity for kids from different areas of San Diego to meet one another,” said Project Director, Andy Hadley. “They all come together and realize that a kid from 4S Ranch has the same goal in mind as a kid from Poway, Point Loma or other neighboring communities – to have fun while sharing some camaraderie.” The community is encouraged to act as spectators. Competition begins at 9 a.m. when swimmers will take to the pool and track and field runners will gear up to race on the field site opposite the club. Basketball games will be on the indoor courts, dodgeball will be at the court on the

fields and soccer will be held outside on the fields. Ping pong players will test their skills in the game room. Every child who participates will receive a 2013 Summer Games t-shirt and medals will be awarded to first through third place finishers in each sport at the awards ceremony that will take place just before 1 p.m. Additionally, each site that participates has the opportunity to win the overall sportsmanship award. This is the most coveted award to win each year, giving the winning club the trophy to have on display for the entire year. 92127 readers are encouraged to participate, watch, volunteer and even help in sponsoring the event. ZCode Magazines is a proud bronze level media sponsor for the event and will have staff members on the courts and fields acting as official scorekeepers. Keep the event in mind for next year as well, as organizers are already in the planning stages for a larger event that will focus on both sports and arts. Visit www.sdyouth.org/Summergames.aspx for more details on this year’s event. ¢

92128 is the Place to Be For the Heikkila Family

ason, Lorraine and Austin Heikkila moved to Sabre Springs seven years ago; Madeleine and Scarlett came along two years later. For the Heikkilas, the key to 92128 living is taking advantage of all that is available in their community and surrounding communities. They love hiking – especially by the creek next to Creekside Elementary – but they also enjoy camping, baseball and football. An annual summer camping trip has brought adventure all over the country – they’ve been to Yellowstone, Mendocino County, Zion and they have even pulled a trailer to Canada and back. Each family member has separate interests as well. Ten-year-old Austin plays baseball for the CA Lookouts and Carmel Mountain Ranch Little League (CMRLL) Minors. He’s also a member of Cub Scout Pack 643 and the Creekside Chess Club. Fiveyear-olds Madeleine and Scarlett play CMRLL T-ball, are members of Daisy Scout Troop 2208 and enjoy their ventures at Gyminny Kids in Rancho Bernardo. The family can be found at South Creek Neighborhood Park, Game Day Sports and Torrey Pines State Beach on any given weekend when they aren’t on the fields or hanging out in their neighborhood. “We always volunteer our support for every organization we are involved in,” Lorraine explained. “Just recently, Jason shopped for and delivered supplies to the CA Lookouts Snack Stand at the Westview High School site for the 4th Annual Home Run for Chelsea tournament benefitting the Chelsea’s Light Foundation.” For CMRLL, Jason is

Both parents chaperone field trips and help out during classroom parties. Additionally, last year, Lorraine voluntarily donated 10 inches of her hair to Locks of Love. The duo has transformed a chance meeting at a beach bonfire in 1996 into the fabulous life for which they have today. When asked to share family anecdotes, Lorraine responded, “After our daughters were born, we wanted to show our quirkier side in our Christmas Lorraine Heikkila card photo. Last year, we dressed as the 2012 musicians – Katy Perry, Taylor Swift and Psy. The year prior, we dressed as elves. One year, we got comfy and took our Christmas pictures in pajamas.” Sabre Springs is fine family living for the Heikkilas. Lorraine commented, “This is a neighborhood where people really do get to know each other and become friends.” Home is where the heart is and it shows for this party of five. 

San Diego North Rotary Helps Make a Difference to Needy Children in Baja

San Diego North Rotarians traveled to Ensenada, Mexico in early May to work in the Rotary sponsored clinic, Thousand Smiles Foundation, that provides free dental and surgical procedures for underprivileged children in Baja. The two day clinic is held quarterly and specializes in cleft lip/palate surgery. Many of the children have to have several surgeries over the course of their lives to correct these hereditary problems. Over 100 volunteers, including medical, dental and lay people come from all over California, at their own expense, to make these children well. San Diego North Rotary provided free lunches to the volunteer workers during the clinic. This program is the longest running program of its kind, spanning 26 years, with San Diego North having been involved for the last 20 years. For more information about Rotary or Thousand Smiles, email kimcog@san.rr.com or call 858-376-2400.

Where is that silver belt buckle you have been looking for?

The concept of a rodeo in Poway began when two Poway Valley Riders Association (PVRA) members, John Walker and Jack Miller, put their heads together. It took them several years and a trip to the National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City to prepare and make all of the necessary arrangements to sponsor a sanctioned Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) Rodeo in Poway. Through their efforts, members of the PVRA, the Lions Club and the Poway Chamber of Commerce, the Poway Rodeo Committee was formed and the first Poway Rodeo was produced in 1973. This year, the Poway Rodeo will continue to feature the traditions of the Old West and cowboy heritage while honoring 41 years of the Poway Rodeo. The Poway Rodeo, held on Sept. 27 and 28 this year, has established itself as a mustdo annual event that will leave you on the edge of your seat.

Old Poway Park

When retired Army Colonel John S. Porter settled in Poway in 1948, he had a dream to revitalize Old Poway and make it a place for the community to come and enjoy the old west. Through the years, he acquired and built the beginnings of a historic village to include the purchase of the 1907 Baldwin No. 3 Steam Locomotive and a halfmile track. When he died in 1979, he had not completely fulfilled his dream of a fully operating historic village. In

1986, the City purchased the 4.75-acre Porter estate and Steam Locomotive, and its rail. From there, Old Poway Park was built. Historic buildings from various locations in Poway were brought to the site and restored and the park officially opened in July of 1993. Now, visitors can see life as it once was at the turn of the 20th century. While you’re there, ride the vintage 1907 Baldwin No. 3 Steam Locomotive, visit the Heritage Museum and Nelson House, tour historic buildings, dine at the popular Hamburger Factory or just enjoy a picnic with family and friends.

MEADOWBROOK

MIDDLE

CAREER DAY

eadowbrook Middle School held its Annual Career Fair in late May. The purpose of the Career Fair was to provide students with a forum to explore future career options. The school invited parents and community members to have the opportunity to share their careers and responsibilities while hosting a table of information to share with students. Students were engaged in photo lessons, documented the event in film, participated in activities that local business members do on a regular basis and even learned from executives of Bridgepoint Education. The event was the ideal way to make a difference in the lives of the Meadowbrook students by connecting them to the resources available in the local business community. The students walked away from the day with a passport full of stamps given out by participating professionals. Student Services Specialist at Meadowbrook Middle, Carmen Aguilar, among other staff members, were pleased with the outcome of the annual event and look forward to bringing it to the campus again next year. ¢

Revolutionizing Football Culture

The Heads Up FootballSM Program Creates a Safer Playing Environment

by AMY LEHRER

he national governing body of American football and the official youth development partner of the NFL, USA Football, created Heads Up FootballSM, the new standard for teaching football fundamentals. Fully supported by the NFL, the NFL foundation, the NCAA and the National Federation of State High School Associations, the Heads Up FootballSM program is revolutionizing football culture. Clare Graff, a publicity manager for the NFL, explained, “The number one goal of Heads Up Football is to provide our kids the safest possible environment to learn the fundamentals of the game.” Leagues wishing to become Heads Up Certified must adopt five tenets: educate coaches, learn how to recognize and respond to concussions, teach proper tackling techniques, ensure proper equipment fitting and maintenance and comply with designated safety protocols. Every coach must take USA Football’s nationally accredited Level 1 Coaching Education course, and coaches, parents and players must attend clinics prior to and during each season to learn concussion protocols. Then, during the season through a series of non-contact and low-contact drills to assure safety and proper skill progression, players learn tackling fundamentals that include keeping their heads up and out of the line of

50 • 92128Magazine.com • July | August 2013

contact. Learning correct tackling techniques early enables athletes to build muscle memory, which will protect them as they progress. Coaches, parents and players are included in all training sessions so that everyone can help make football safer. NFL ambassadors to the program like San Diego native Eric Allen – a former American football cornerback who played for three NFL teams – work alongside players, parents and coaches to promote safe ways to learn football fundamentals. The ambassadors enjoy supporting their communities by making football safer and more efficient than it was when they played. Pediatric Neuropsychologist, Dr. Gerard Gioia, expressed his support by stating, “I am particularly impressed by the Heads Up Tackling program’s emphasis on proper body positioning. I believe training of our coaches in these ‘head safe’ techniques, together with an understanding of the negative consequences of multiple blows to the head, will better protect our athletes.” As of May 14, more than 1,300 youth leagues have adopted Heads Up FootballSM for the 2013 season, and the goal is to bring it to all 10,000 youth football leagues across the United States. And due to the safety benefits and support offered, some high school football programs may adopt and endorse Heads Up Football as early as this season. ¢

eads Up Football. If you watched the NFL draft, or you plan on watching any NFL games this season – you are going to hear that term frequently. Beginning this year, the NFL and USA Football are reaching out to multiple youth football programs to fundamentally change the culture of football. Heads Up Football is a huge initiative that combines coach education, player safety awareness, proper equipment and on Heads Up Tackling. Special Submission by Mike Gaylord, Administrative VP of Rancho Bernardo Pop Warner & Cheer

he sport of football is changing. The sport is coming together to be safer for the players – at all levels. How does a national safety initiative translate to your local community? Like this.

EMPHASIS ON EQUIPMENT.

RB Pop Warner spends the bulk of their budget on safety equipment. We will not issue football helmets or shoulder pads older than two years. Every helmet is reconditioned very off-season. All shoulder pads are inspected before being issued. During equipment issue, coaches spend time with every player to make sure that their pads and helmet fit correctly. The day we issue gear can be a long day that will test the patience of most mortals. Fitting helmets is a slow and methodical process – and we spend the extra time to do it right.

COACH TRAINING.

Pop Warner football has very ambitious training requirements to be a coach. By the time a team takes the field, the coaching staff will have taken over 50 hours of online and in-person courses. Locally, we take it a step further. We have a fantastic relationship with the RBHS coaching staff – and have benefited from combined coach clinics. Additionally, we conduct Coach Clinics beginning two months before the season. We develop practice plans that emphasize drills and exercises that teach fundamentally sound football techniques while minimizing the risk of injury to players.

WE CALL IT THE 2H CLUB – HEAT AND HEAD.

Our football season overlaps with the nicest, warmest time of the year in San Diego. And even though we don’t have the oppressive conditions in many parts of the country in the fall, we have a very aggressive hydration strategy built into our practice plans. Lots of water breaks, lots of shade time. Secondly, we focus on concussion prevention and recognition. Our contact drills focus on real-game situations – not head to head direct closing, but lateral pursuit. We teach and emphasize tackling techniques that are designed to keep the tackler’s head up and out of direct impact. Breakdown > Buzz > Hit > Shoot > Rip. Over and over and over.

THE CARRY-OVER EFFECT.

Our volunteer coaches tend to be individuals who are habitually involved in the community. That means, in addition to football, you might see our volunteers coaching soccer, lacrosse, baseball, basketball or involved in scouts. The size and scope of the Heads Up Football initiative is huge – trying to impact football at every level, all at once. USA Football is taking the lead in a national program that stresses player safety through formal coach training and equipment. We think this formal emphasis will carry over to other sports, both with local participants, and at national levels. Whether you watch NFL games on Sunday, follow the high school team on Friday nights, or watch youth and college games on Saturdays – football and cheerleading is a deep part of American culture. It’s nice to share how our local leagues are heavily committed to making the sport a safer experience with this bold Heads Up initiative. Come out and watch a game this fall – a true Normal Rockwell experience! Late registration is still open for Rancho Bernardo Pop Warner – visit www.rbpopwarner.org to get started. Football teams and cheerleading squads are open for youth ages five to 15. The season starts on Aug. 1. ¢

A Bronco’s Year in Review: 2012-2013

t’s time to begin. The smell of sunscreen ushers in the start of vacation for Rancho Bernardo High School (RBHS) students. AP books have been sold to underclassmen or burned in bonfires. Piles of classwork wait to cover the bottom of bird cages. Starbucks will temporarily lose its night-owl, late-night business. Summer sweeps in the carefree days, where some will frolic on the beaches, travel to exotic locales or engage in movie marathons. Others will intern at hospitals, volunteer in the community or prepare for Homework 2.0 at Summa or Elite SAT classes. It’s time to say goodbye. The Class of 2013 will leave for college in the midst of farewells, care packages and daily parental calls. From there, armed with four years of blood, sweat and tears at RBHS, seniors will face another four years of blood, sweat and tears. But wherever their journey may take them – once a Bronco, always a Bronco. It’s time to reflect. The new principal, David LeMaster, has made a remarkable transition. He has not only exuded a sense of fun through the Harlem Shake, but has also served as a role model for students around campus. His responsibility for RBHS manifested in the STAR test pep talks around campus, encouraging students to perform to their highest abilities in order to raise the 2012 API score of 850. With his belief in the capabilities of RBHS, the school has continued to shine bright in its legacy. Sports powered through

CIF Championships and Palomar Leagues, winning awards left and right. Social events, such as the ‘Old Hollywood’ themed prom, were touted the best in its years. Thus, with its varied successes, RBHS completed another wonderful year. It’s time to look forward. RBHS will undergo air conditioning renovations in the coming year. When the installation is complete, students will no longer wonder whether it will be Alaskan or Hawaiian weather in the classrooms. A new schedule will also be implemented, with late start Mondays and tutorial time embedded into lab-day periods. Unfortunately, some courses will not be offered, including a few AP classes, but students will have the opportunity to take a wide range of classes offered by the high caliber teachers that RBHS has always been proud to boast of. Come August, Target will start its school supplies sales, beach balls will be stowed away and Starbucks will restart another bustling cycle. RBHS will open its summer-rusted doors to welcome the new and the old crowd of students and another hectic school year will begin. But until then, Broncos, keep calm and gallop on! ¢ Susan Shen is an incoming senior at Rancho Bernardo High School.

WHAT A BOWL Lake Hodges Bowls Club is Revived and Thriving by Wynne Love | photos by Spark Photography

Name of Group: Group’s Purpose: Contact: Weekly Games: Youth League:

Lake Hodges Bowls Club To promote the sport of bowls and the spirit of fellowship, good sportsmanship and friendly rivalry among its members. www.lakehodgesbowlsclub.com; hodgesbowls@gmail.com Tuesday & Thursday evenings at 6 p.m. Friday, Saturday & Sunday at 9:30 a.m. When established, the youth league will play on Sunday mornings.

here's some fierce competition brewing at the Lake Hodges Bowls Club, but you may not have noticed. Club President, Georgie Deno described: "As we embarked on our effort to revive the LHBC, the most frequent comments we heard from people in the community were that they had never heard of lawn bowls or that they didn’t even know we were here." So Georgie Deno and her Vice President, Melanie Vizenor have spent the last year working to change that. Never played lawn bowling yourself? As Georgie explained, "The object is to roll an elliptical ball (called a bowl) down the green toward a small white ball, called the 'jack,' and land closer than your opponent. Where it gets tricky," Georgie added, "is in the arc that the bowl takes in arriving at its destination." The Lake Hodges Bowls Club, or LHBC, manages two greens in the Rancho Bernardo Community Park, including the only lighted green in San Diego County. After grant and foundation funds were exhausted last fall, the club was considering closing its doors. "Melanie and I visited the club

premises and were startled at the largely excellent condition of the facility," remembered Georgie. "Basically, all that was needed was members! I looked at Melanie and said, 'We can’t just let this club slip away. How hard do you want to work?' Now the club is thriving, supported wholly by member dues." The LHBC hosts games all year round and welcomes players ages 12 and up. As their website aptly explains, "Neither youth nor strength will help you achieve stardom in the game of bowls. It's a game that relies on consistency of delivery and outsmarting your opponent." Georgie elaborated, "Since bowls is a finesse rather than a strength sport, people of all ages and both genders can, potentially, compete equally with one another." That's just one reason Georgie likes it. "I’ve never been a very athletic person," admitted Georgie, "but here was something that afforded the chance to play a competitive sport and get to know new people." Come on out and join her for a free lesson or host a group event. "We are always happy to welcome people to try bowls," assured Georgie. 

NGLC New Generations LEARNING CENTER

Lori Jiannuzzi makes her model for childcare a reality at New Generations Learning Center

Plus Open Door Policy

by WYNNE LOVE

ny parent knows how hard it can be to leave their child in someone else’s care. The only sure form of comfort is knowing they are in the best of hands. “Mom on a mission” Lori Jiannuzzi is determined to provide that level of care at New Generations Learning Center (NGLC). “When my son was six months old, I wanted to go back to work full-time,” recalled Lori. “We searched for a quality child care center, but I was unable to find one school that was everything I wanted for my child. So rather than being part of the problem, I decided to be part of the solution!” A USD graduate and real-estate entrepreneur, Lori set out to design just the kind of program she would want as a parent.

Secure Facility

Since safety is most parents’ first priority, Lori made it hers as well. “Our lobby area has a double-secure access requiring use of the biometric fingerprint access in addition to a coded entry door,” described

Super Staff

“Having the right professionals on my team was key to the success of the program,” noted Lori. Every teacher has specialized training in early childhood education and is hired for their ability to contribute to a warm and nurturing environment.

Quality Curriculum

“NGLC is committed to professionalizing the field of early childhood education,” asserted Lori. Determined to educate, not babysit, NGLC utilizes low teacher-student ratios and implements its own tailormade curriculum, including Baby Sign, Spanish and a rich multi-cultural daily curriculum.

A founding principle is NGLC’s commitment to keeping parents informed with daily reports, regular e-mail communication and instant live access through their web cams. “NGLC’s web cams offer a great tool for parents of little ones to watch over how their child’s day is going,” emphasized Lori. NGLC operates 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on weekdays year-round, serving children ages six weeks to 12 years, and there is currently space available in each classroom for the summer months. NGLC is also registering for fall 2013 and their Private Kindergarten 2013-2014 program. See Lori’s team in action at www.nglc.org or at their facility just off the 15 in Mira Mesa. 

:::: HOME TIPS

eople are becoming energy-efficient. From solar panels to electric cars, to changing out light bulbs and windows – it’s all around us. There’s opportunities everywhere to be part of this change of lifestyle upgrade that is really quite essential in the world we live in today. When you replace a single pane window in your house with an energy-efficient one, the new window prevents heat from escaping in the winter, so you save energy by using your heater less while remaining comfortable. In the summer, efficient windows keep the heat out, so the air conditioner does not run as often and, thus, you save electricity. When you replace an appliance, such as a refrigerator or washing

machine with a more energy-efficient model, the new equipment provides the same service, but uses less energy. This saves you money on your energy bill, and reduces the amount of greenhouse gases going into the atmosphere. Being energy-efficient is simply an upgrade to your current lifestyle that reduces energy costs and results in a financial cost saving to consumers. Seems simple enough. Andy Bello, owner of Tankless Plumbing, is encouraging the community to “think outside the tank” and become more energyefficient. His question to consumers is simple. Why waste so much water when you turn on your shower, faucet, dishwasher or washing machine just to wait for heat to come,

when you can achieve and get to the same point using 2/3 less energy? The choice is simple – upgrade to a state-of-the-art NORTIZ tankless water heater. The heaters come with a 12-year warranty on the heat exchanger and five years on all other components. As a licensed plumbing contractor as well as a trained certified Platinum dealer and installer, Tankless Plumbing has a heater that will meet your needs as well as save you money on your hot water heating bills. Remember what you save will pay you back over time to pay down your investment. Visit www.tanklessplumber.com to learn how to make the change to a more energy-efficient lifestyle. 

Benefits of Going Tankless • Most tankless units come with a federal tax rebate of $300. • They never run out of hot water. • They last five to 10 years longer than tank heaters. • You can shave as much as 20 percent from your water heating bill. • Electric models don't produce greenhouse gases. • They're more efficient with no standby heat loss. • They take up less space and can even be installed on walls or outdoors with an anti-freeze kit. • Smaller units can be installed under cabinets or in a closet, closer to the point of use. • They only need enough power to heat the amount of water necessary at any given moment. • Most units are operated by remote control and have up to four separate settings available. • There's no possibility of flooding due to a ruptured tank.

Elite Pediatric Dentistry, Dr. Femme Ambrosio and her staff strive to create a positive experience for every patient, every day. “We are a small boutique practice and are focused on each family’s needs. We encourage open communication and take time to explain prevention plans, treatment and procedure options and finances,” described Dr. Ambrosio, Board Certified Pediatric Dentist. Elite Pediatric Dentistry provides comprehensive dental care to children of all ages, from infants to young adults, as well as children with special health care needs. According to Dr. Ambrosio, having a boutique, or small-scale, practice allows her to spend the time necessary to ensure that children and parents have a positive experience and receive the best possible care. She understands that each child is unique and must be treated as such, which is an important

to all of my families. I never want a parent or child to feel overlooked or rushed,” related Dr. Ambrosio. Parents are welcome in the treatment rooms, all of which are private and not in an open setting with other families. The office is an esthetically modern environment that is inviting to children of all ages as well as parents. For Dr. Ambrosio and her staff, staying up-to-date on technology is a vital part of assessing and delivering complete oral health. The office has child-size digital x-ray equipment that decreases radiation exposure, as well as a computer-controlled tooth anesthesia device that increases patient comfort. A children’s reception area with books and games, overhead flat-screen monitors and a prize wheel allow for a fun experience for the child. It is the friendly and compassionate staff at Elite Pediatric Dentistry that truly sets the practice apart. Dr. Ambrosio has worked in various pediatric dental offices throughout the country and learned a great deal from each experience. When she decided to open her own practice, she sought to hire not only people who had knowledge and the skill set, but also had the personality and determination to provide the best care to patients. “From the moment a parent calls to schedule an appointment to the time a family walks out the door, they are treated with care,” said Dr. Ambrosio. Dr. Ambrosio is a native San Diegan and a mother, both of which she feels serve her well in her practice. “As a mother, I understand the needs of families. I want parents to be happy with the quality of care that their children are receiving. Many of my patients are the children of people who I’ve known since childhood. I am thankful to the parents, friends, colleagues and old classmates who put their trust in me,” related Dr. Ambrosio. ¢

In her opinion, the more music in the lives of the children she works with, the better. Angie is passionate about the local community. She moved to Sabre Springs in 1986 with her parents when the development was brand new. She is happy to have been a part of the growth of the community and loves all the area has to offer, including the many hiking trails, parks and playgrounds. Spending time with her family is also extremely important to Angie. Her husband, John, is a production planner and professional saxophonist. Her niece, Rebekah, lives with the Serrano family and will be a junior at Mt. Carmel High School. Their daughter, Ella, will be in sixth grade at Meadowbrook, and their son, Cole, is four years old. Looking back on her life so far, Angie is especially inspired by the influence of her mother. “I lost my mother to breast cancer when I was 30 years old. While there is a big gap in my life without her, I feel so very lucky that I had such a wonderful mom, role model and friend,” shared Angie. 

And with its casually-elegant atmosphere, Poway Sushi Lounge is “a place where you can take the family or first date for a night out on the town,” added Frank. The menu, which stays true to traditional sushi preparation while still adding a unique American flare, ties both the Poway and Encinitas restaurants together, with the Tsunami roll ~ Owner, Frank Interlandi being a customer favorite. The grilled shrimp, asparagus, avocado, cucumber, and crab roll with Cajun-seared albacore on the outside is served with a warm garlic, Serrano chili and cilantro ponzu sauce. But while both restaurants embody the same friendly vibe, the Encinitas location appears to be slightly different in design. “We designed Encinitas Sushi Lounge to have a better flow from a chefto-server standpoint,” described Frank. “They have the same décor, but we also added a bar to the waiting area.” One thing that both restaurants are certain to have, though, is a staff – many of whom have been there from the start – who are committed to quality food, high-class service and community involvement. “These things are important because they are a direct reflection on us,” noted Frank. “This is what we do, and will always do.” ¢

he saying goes that some people are born with a silver spoon in their mouth, but Rancho Bernardo High School (RBHS) senior Parker Bugg may have been born with a baseball in his hand instead. As a baby, the first word Parker said was “ball.” He started playing baseball at age four, and began travel baseball by age eight. “My journey from t-ball to where I am today stems from my love of playing baseball, competing and having my dad throw me batting practice and ground balls until it would get too dark,” explained Parker. All that baseball as a young boy has paid off. Parker was selected as one of the premiere high school baseball players in the country to participate in the National Area Code Games tournament and is a two-time Under Armour® PreSeason All American. Parker doesn’t take his success for granted though. “I am very self-motivated and realize how blessed I am to have the opportunities I’ve had,” said Parker. “My parents have always told me that the harder I work, the luckier I will be, which has motivated me to work hard throughout the years.” One event that had a major impact on Parker and spurred him into action was the 2010 abduction and murder of Chelsea King, a fellow RBHS student.

6868• 92128Magazine.com • 92128Magazine.com• July • July| August | August2013 2013

Although he didn’t know Chelsea personally, Parker decided to start a fundraising effort called “Strikeout Sex Offenders.” All the money raised will be donated to the Chelsea’s Light Foundation which awards academic scholarships and also supports the efforts to implement tighter restrictions on criminals who prey on children. The “Strike Out Sex Offenders” program seeks $1 for each strikeout Parker makes. Already, over $5,000 has been donated. Although he suffered a foot injury that will likely keep him from finishing his final season on the mound at RBHS, Parker hopes that donations will continue to come in. “My hope is that next season other players or teams throughout the county take my idea and make it a yearly event in competition among high school teams in San Diego,” described Parker. Parker was recently drafted by the Baltimore Orioles in the 34th round of the 2013 Major League Baseball draft. “Parker is really excited to have been drafted...every little kid’s dream,” shared Parker’s dad, Steve Bugg. As Parker enters his next venture, he will still keep an eye on what he’s started back home and will look for other change-makers to follow suit. 

:::: REAL ESTATE WATCH

Do I Really Need a Realtor to Help Sell My Home?

by RICH TEETER

ooking at the current market, it’s easy to see that well-priced homes are flying off the shelves. It’s clearly a seller’s market and buyers have to deal with the fact that there just isn’t much inventory and prices are continuing to move higher. But there are still obstacles on both sides of the sale that require skill and knowledge to overcome. As a realtor, what I’m about to say may seem self serving…but hear me out. I have always have been an advocate of using a professional to do things that I can’t or wouldn’t do myself. This includes everything from having my car washed and trees trimmed to getting legal advice, tax advice, dentistry and most major medical procedures. The reality is that regardless of how easy it may seem to sell a home in a market like this, there are things that must be done properly to prevent costly consequences later. I’m not saying that nobody can sell a home without the assistance of a well qualified and licensed advocate, but I would say that most should not. Today I want to focus on the selling side. In a market like this, there are three major things to

be mindful of when selling your home. First is getting the best offer. Notice I didn’t say price, the best offer will include best price, best terms, and the likelihood of the buyer being able to close. The seller must negotiate through inspections and appraisals that may not work in their favor. Being able to properly position and execute a selling plan will be crucial to meeting your selling needs. Secondly, there are many laws regarding disclosures and documentation that must be adhered to in order to prevent problems after the sale. Items like environmental disclosures, transfer disclosures, Mello-Roos disclosures, title

reports, HOA documents, and so forth, must be properly handled. Finally, having an advocate who has seen things before will be invaluable in helping you understand and get through the many hurdles while keeping the process on track. This will ensure that the initial selling goals are being achieved. All that said, if you are thinking of selling your home, talk to your trusted real estate professional before moving forward. If you don’t have someone you know and trust to help you, give me a call and we can discuss your current or future real estate needs. ¢
