The Murrieta Creek Regional Trail is officially open for use following ribbon cutting ceremonies held on Saturday, June 6 throughout the four cities served by the trail.

When completed the trail will span a total of 14 miles, according

to information on the city of Murrieta’s website.

Currently only interim trails are open while others continue to be constructed according to Murrieta Recreation Supervisor Colby Diuguid who oversees all of the city’s trails.

“The interim trail is a section of the trail currently under construc-

by developers and it’s a matter of when they come in and begin to develop them.”

Connecting Temecula, Murrieta, Wildomar and Lake Elsinore together, the long term project funded and developed by the Riverside County Flood Control District and

Xiomara Hall, a Temecula resident, prepares for her journey to Mount Kilimanjaro with TAPS—an organization for survivors of military veterans.

Temecula resident and celebrity chef Xiomara Hall is slated to climb Mount Kilimanjaro with a group of military survivors later this year.

For those unfamiliar with Hall, she was a winner on the TV show “Supermarket Superstar” and is a frequent Reality Rally contestant and local caterer with Tropical BBQ. “When you’re living a life you never thought you’d live, you should do things you never thought you could do,” Hall said as she described her motto for the upcoming journey in a recent interview.

Widow of Marine Corps Lt. Col. William G. Hall, she speaks with the confidence and candor becoming of a Marine Corps wife. Her role as survivor, widow and single mother wasn’t one she aspired to – having lost her husband to an improvised explosive device in Iraq on March 29, 2008.

“At first, I didn’t know what to

do. Sometimes I could comprehend the loss, other times I couldn’t even breathe,” Hall said. Seven weeks later, Hall found herself at Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors, a national organization, where she gained a larger purpose toward being the role model for her four children. There, she not only came to an understanding with her grief, but learned that she wasn’t alone.

“When someone passes away they get bigger than life. I try to emulate the positives, but keep it real,” Hall said. “There has to be a certain amount of acceptance with his loss.”

Hall left her first TAPS meeting knowing that weekend changed her life for the better.

“My friend Leticia suggested we run the Marine Corps Marathon together, and I dove into training for it, dealing with my grief, doing it for my children,” Hall said.

City of Temecula prides itself on emergency preparedness of citizens Ashley Ludwig Staff Writer Southern California measures itself in seasons – fire, earthquakes, floods and mudslides. The city of Temecula, home to over 100,000 people, strives to be prepared to handle each and every possible emergency for the safety of its citizens.

Assistant City Manager Greg Butler and Emergency Coordinator Roberto Cardenas are responsible for doing just that.

“Emergency preparedness is a combination between emergency response services within the city and individual responsibility,” Butler said in a recent interview. “Our primary role is to keep the city in a ready state for all sorts of different emergencies applicable to Southern California.”

In Temecula, all plans are modeled after a nationwide standard and the city contracts with CAL FIRE, CALEMA, and the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services.

“Every scenario has been taken

into account, whether natural or manmade,” Butler stated. “Our directors from the city are trained on how to respond based upon the emergency event.”

Though earthquake or fire might come to mind as the most prevalent emergency, flood is the number one killer in Southwest Riverside, Butler explained, “especially after fire season, according to statistics.”

Training consists of both surprise and planned scenarios where city responders can practice response to a variety of emergencies, and grade

themselves on their successes and find areas of improvement.

“The nature of the event drives who is in immediate command,” according to Cardenas. “Fire calls for the fire chief, an active shooter calls for the police chief, and so on.”

In addition to who is responsible for what emergency, the headquarters for emergency operations depends on the location. Predetermined Emergency Operations

A senator and a Temecula soccer-mom team up to right a wrong

John Hunneman Columnist Louise Esola was trying to get some work done around her home but the phone kept ringing. I was lucky to get through when I called.

“The senator’s office has been calling all morning,” she told me.

“There’s another call. I have to go.”

United State Senator Chuck Schumer of New York has taken up the cause Esola has championed for years.

The Temecula mother of two boys had information Schumer needed to follow through on his pledge to add 74 names of the crew of the USS Frank E. Evans to the Vietnam Veterans Memorial – The Wall – in Washington, D.C. Several years ago Esola, a freelance writer, was on assignment for the North County Times when she met a member of the Evans crew and heard the story for the first time.

In March of 1969 the Evans left Long Beach for the war in Vietnam.

Most of the crew was asleep early in the morning of June 3, 1969 when the Evans collided with an Australian aircraft carrier in the

South China Sea. The World War II vintage destroyer was cut in half, with the bow section sinking in minutes, taking 74 sailors with it.

Days prior to the collision Evans had been off Vietnam providing shore bombardment in support of American ground forces.

The ship left the area to participate in a multi-nation exercise.

When it did it traveled outside the designated “combat-zone” which, essentially, is an imaginary line drawn for tax and pay purposes.

Sailors on one side of the line received combat pay, those on the other did not.

However that line in the water is the sorry excuse the Navy has used for decades to deny the “Lost 74” as they are known, their just place on The Wall.

Esola began to dig and the official story of the accident the Navy had been telling for decades began to unravel.

She traveled to Washington, D.C. and uncovered long buried documents. She met with members of the USS Frank E. Evans Association which for decades had been trying to right this wrong. She also met with family members of the Lost 74 including Eunice Sage, from a tiny Nebraska town, whose three sons, Gary, Greg and Kelly Jo, all died when the Evans sank.

The result is her award-winning book ”American Boys – The True Story of the Lost 74 of the Vietnam War” published in 2014.

However the Navy and the Department of Defense have refused to budge from their tired story that the sinking was “not directly related to war” and will not recommend the names be added.

But pressure to acknowledge the truth is rising.

Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus has expressed his support for adding the names.

In March the names of the 21 sailors from California who died when the Evans sank were added to the California Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Sacramento.

And now the senator from New York is calling the soccer-mom/ author from Temecula for information.

“It is a mistake and an injustice that 74 veterans (who) bravely served their country in the Vietnam War cannot be recognized on the national Vietnam Memorial Wall because of an overly strict and inflexible interpretation of a bureaucratic rule,” Schumer said recently. “I am launching my push to have these crewmembers’ names enshrined on the memorial to give these veterans the honor they deserve. Next Memorial Day, we should be able to look at 74 additional names on the Vietnam Memorial Wall in our nation’s capital.”

Esola’s book is available at Amazon.com. She has lowered to price of the online edition to just $2.99.

“I just want people to know the story,” she said before she hung up on me to take the call from Schumer’s office. “It is refreshing to see (his) staff tackling this.”

Several hundred names have been added the Vietnam Veterans Memorial since it was dedicated in 1982, including those of 68 Marines who died in a helicopter crash in Hong Kong.

They all deserve to be on The Wall, and so do the Lost 74 of the USS Evans.

On June 3, the Menifee City Council voted to initiate a special election for a new council member to finish serving the term of 81-year-old Councilman Wallace (Wally) Edgerton, who died on May 26 of a lung transplant complication.

The government code allows for two options in securing the vacant position, and the City Council can either appoint a new council member, by a majority vote, or choose to call a special election to fill the seat.

The remainder of Edgerton’s four-year term is due to expire in 2016.

The estimated cost of the election in one district is $25,000, according to the staff report.

“The council members decided on a vote of 3-to-1 to send this to a special election in November of next year,” said Kathy Bennett, city clerk.

The City Council has no regularly scheduled meetings in July and since they have only 60 days to call the special election to fill the vacancy, they are set to take action

on the matter at the next council meeting on June 17.

After the Nov. 3 general election, the new council member would be sworn in during the first meeting in December.

More than half of the 16 public speakers asked the City Council to consider appointing a person to fill Edgerton’s seat, which represents District 3 in the city.

Before Edgerton’s death, he shared with fellow council members his endorsement of three people to serve out the remainder of his term.

According to reports, he named Lesa Sobek and Chris Thomas, both current planning commission members, and Rick Croy, a member of Menifee’s Parks, Recreation and Trails Commission.

Julia Dove, one speaker, said she supports an appointment of one of those three individuals named by Edgerton.

“One reason is the cost,” she said. “The second reason is that when the voters elected Councilman Edgerton, they were also voting in his opinions and recommendations.”

Marnie Palmerin of Perris said

the advantages of the special election are that the city will avoid the appearance of favoritism and accusations of cronyism.

The price tag shouldn’t matter, Palmerin said.

“An election is truly the democratic way and the cost of democracy is very high,” she said.

Councilman Greg August motioned to nominate Sobek to serve the remaining term, but he did not receive a second on the motion.

Mayor Scott Mann said that Menifee has strong candidates living in District 3, and that those who want to serve on the City Council should pull papers, get signatures, pay their filing fee and go knock on doors.

In 2008, Edgerton became Menifee’s first mayor and in 2009, he was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

As his health began declining earlier this year, he still continued to participate in council meetings by connecting remotely while he commuted to San Diego for treatments.

May 20 was Edgerton’s last meeting.

Local TRAIL from page A-1 the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers provides easy access to the area’s natural resources for local residents and visitors alike.

Diuguid said the ribbon cuttings and corresponding events at each city were successful from what he had heard.

“We had about 150 people come out,” he said of the Murrieta event.

“That’s a pretty successful day for us. We had bikers who rode all the way from Temecula to Lake Elsinore on Saturday. It was really cool to see.”

The trail follows the historic Murrieta Creek corridor once used by the Butterfield Overland Stage Company and the early settlers’ migratory route of the Southern Emigrant Trail through Murrieta Creek.

Duiguid said that the trail runs along I-15 through Temecula, Murrieta and part of Wildomar, after that it goes out to Palomar Road into Lake Elsinore. Eventually the trail will connect through Corona and head west ending at the Pacific Ocean.

“In reality, if all of this comes to fruition, you will be able to go from the south end of Temecula, hop on to Butterfield Stage and make it all of the way to Green River on the 91 and all the way out to the ocean, though that is decades away,” Duiguid said.

The trail is included in the Master

Plan for all of the cities involved, according to Duiguid.

“It had never been officially mapped out so the planning document that was created helped put a recommendation of where the trail should go and issues that need to be addressed during the different structure phase as each implements their phase,” he said.

The goal for planners of the trail is to take a cue from nature and create a multi-use trail alongside the river that will connect Temecula in the south, to Lake Elsinore in the north and the cities in-between, according to an informative brochure on the trail.

“The development of this trail will appeal to many residents, who in addition to the low crime rate and good schools, have been drawn to this area of southwest Riverside County because of the clement weather and opportunities for outdoor living,” the piece reads.

The trail, when completed, will feature signage and interpretive programming revealing the area’s unique and creative contributions to the nation’s heritage and promote a healthy lifestyle while improving opportunities for physical and recreational activities.

According to Temecula Councilman Matt Rahn, the trail will help to improve the quality of life for residents throughout the region.

“Any increase to the number of bike lanes and trails translates to a more healthy and livable com-

munity which is a core value of the city’s high quality of life,” Rahn said. “This trail will also improve safety for pedestrians and cyclists by taking them off road.”

The trail, which includes both off road and on road sections, can be accessed in each of the cities it serves. For a full listing of trailheads, visit www.murrieta.org, www.hikebiketemecula.org, www. cityofwildomar.org and www.lakeelsinore.org.

Drought meeting draws huge crowd, reveals higher water rates Shelli DeRobertis Writer Hefty surcharges for exceeding new water limits and mandatory water restrictions were discussed June 2 at the Rancho California Water District’s Drought open house, where hundreds of people showed up to learn more about costs and usage impacts.

RCWD serves about 160,000 people in Temecula, Vail Lake and portions of Murrieta, and imports 59-percent of its water, produces 35-percent from its wells, and the rest is generated from recycled water.

Due to extreme drought conditions, the district was recently required by the state to begin supplying 36 percent less water to its customers or face huge fines.

So, beginning July 1, a drought surcharge is passed on to customers who exceed their allotted water usage, or Tier 2 budget.

Beginning June 1, a 30 percent budget reduction was imposed on residential customers, along with the deletion of Tier 3, which forces those who consume outside of Tier 2 to jump straight to Tier 4.

“You can be going from $1.50 a unit, straight to $13.12 (a unit),” said Rick Aargon, finance manager for RCWD. In Stage 4a, the tier rates per unit in Tier 4 are more than double than what they were set at in June, during the first part of the two-stage impact of pass-through surcharges.

Water users who exceed more than 15 percent into Tier 4 will be charged $13.12 per unit of water used in that tier.

One unit is equivalent to 748 gallons of water.

Using a screen presentation, Aargon showed the crowd how to use the district’s online Residential Bill Estimator, which provides details on the tiered system and also has a forecasting tool for determining an estimated monthly cost.

call a professional,” he said.

In fact, RCWD can perform an irrigation efficiency test, and check valves, upon request.

Stevens said that homeowners can set up a neighborhood workshop and he will come out and show people how to be more efficient with water use, indoors and outside.

Another water saving measure is in the type of landscaping used, and

Stevens said that “going native” can save about 50,000 gallons of water a year.

He also showed attendees how to perform a soil sample test to determine how long it takes water to reach the bottom of the soil.

Finally, questions were taken at the end of the informational session.

container; extra clothing; kitchen accessories and cooking utensils, including a non-electric can opener; portable stove such as butane or charcoal. Note: Use of stoves should not take place until it is determined that there is no gas leak in the area.

Charcoal should only be burned outdoors—use indoors will lead to carbon monoxide poisoning; and HAM radio, if available, which is great for communication when lines are down.

For a complete list of suggested “sheltering in place” emergency items, visit: temeculacitizencorps. org.

“Sheltering in place allows the city workers and emergency responders to do their work while resources and services are being restored,” Cardenas said. “All families should have a plan, for meeting at a designated spot, and even an additional away from home meeting place should emergencies reach a broader scale.” He added even an out of state contact should be decided upon, should phone and cellular services be out of commission.

The TCC works in tandem with the city, all dedicated toward sharing their knowledge and recruiting others to learn how to care for each other in the event of an emergency.

The TCC is often on hand at events such as with the Temecula Valley Hospital’s Community Days, and others. It educates citizens to take part in their emergency planning and join the group to not be bystanders, but get into the fray and help when needed.

In the event of an emergency, residents can rely on AM 1610 and social media feeds from the city’s Twitter and Facebook pages.

For more information on how to prepare your emergency plans or to get involved in your community, visit temeculacitizencorps.org, www.CityofTemecula.org, or www. ready.gov.

in the city—through the Temecula Citizens’ Corps – to be prepared to shelter in place, if possible, in the event of a non-evacuation emergency,” Butler said.

As described on their website, the TCC’s mission is to encourage all residents of Temecula put the following in place: prepare yourself and your family; make a plan; prepare your emergency kits/supplies; know the possible emergencies and stay informed; Neighborhood Watch; keep your home and neighborhood safe; know enough to know when something or someone is out of place; and be eligible for TCC training including first aid, CPR, AED and others.

If you ask your neighbors, you may find some who are ready to shelter in place for 72 hours during an emergency, but many are not.

“We ask people to follow the ‘Rule of 72’ with regard to sheltering in place,” Butler said. “(Hurricane) Katrina showed that residents should prepare to shelter in place for up to 168 hours or seven days.”

That seven-day rule has expanded to two weeks, according to the Ready.Gov national website.

“People should help themselves, which in turn helps the community,” Cardenas explained. “There are instances of neighborhoods banding together to pool their resources in advance, so that not everyone has to own a generator, or have everything on hand.”

Some of the items on these common sense lists include: 14-day supply of non-perishable food, 14-day supply of water – one gallon per person per day (1/2 gallon per pet per day); portable, battery powered radio or television and extra batteries; flashlight and extra batteries, first aid kit and manual; Sanitation and hygiene items (moist towelettes and toilet paper); fire extinguisher; adjustable wrench for turning off gas and water; matches and waterproof

Due Date: 05-21-15

gallons of water per day.

RCWD offered free toilet leak inspection kits to attendees, which detect leaks by using a blue dye.

Armstrong also recommended to check landscape areas for broken sprinkler heads, and to look for any areas where water may be running off of the grass and into the gutter.

The last thing he suggested residents do is assess the landscaping on their property.

“For example, reducing the amount of turf that you have,” he said. “If you’re not laying in the turf, playing in the turf, and if it’s turf that’s non-functional and you’re not using it, that’s a big water use.”

Bill Stephens, water resource planner, asked guests to determine their “tier tolerance,” and compared lush grass and dead grass to a pain chart commonly located at hospitals.

“Yes, you can keep your grass green. You can keep it lush as much as you want, but as Rick mentioned, you’re going to pay for it dearly,” he said.

A typical house with a lawn uses four feet of water per year, per square foot.

But, he said his personal audits show that customers are using closer to 6-to-8-feet of water per year, per square foot.

“Because they really don’t know how much water grass uses,” he said.

He offered solutions for water conservation and said customers could begin by looking at their irrigation system and checking valves for leaks, and doing things such as installing a rain gauge.

He said purchasing a controller is a great way to make water cuts, and some of them come with a weather station.

For those who already own a controller, he suggested to study the owners’ manual to be sure it is set properly.

Centers are in place around the city in case one or more would be unreachable during an emergency such as flood or fire.

“The Temecula Public Library (on Pauba Road) is the highest point in the city and is one of our EOCs,” Butler said. Other emergency centers include Abbott Labs and Pechanga Resort & Casino.

“We all work together to ensure our readiness is up to date,” Butler said.

If you live in Southern California, chances are you’ve felt the ground shudder. Temecula straddles the quiet Elsinore Fault Line and is in proximity of the major fault areas of San Andreas, San Jacinto, San Gabriel and others.

The city of Temecula participates in training “table top” exercises, such as Shake Out, and scripts written to test the emergency planning from wild fires, flooding, to total dam breeches of Lake Skinner and Diamond Valley Lake.

Temecula also insists on family first for the city’s employees in times of emergency.

“We want our employees to look to the safety of their own families prior to engaging them for emergency operations, and remind everyone

also provided individualized help to customers, in a separate room equipped with computers where they could go to www.ranchowater. com and use the bill estimator program to find out what their personal water budgets were set at.

To use the cost estimator, people need a copy of their most recent water bill.

Aargon said RCWD is currently developing the capability for customers to go online and access charts that provide an hourly and daily breakdown of their water usage. He said they’re one of the first Southern California water companies to offer the service, which is expected to be operating in about a month.

The district’s three latest mandatory water restrictions include watering yards at night only, between 6 p.m. and 9 a.m.

Additionally, residents should not water within 48 hours of at least one-half inch of rainfall.

The third recent restriction bans the washing of pavement with water.

Residents should use a broom to clean their paved areas and not the hose, Aargon said.

If residents are caught breaking any of the district’s restrictions, fines will be imposed after a couple of warnings, he said, and added that the district is also redeveloping the fine structure.

They also launched a free mobile phone app last month called “Report Water Waste.”

The app users can report situations such as defective sprinklers spraying water into the street, sprinklers watering landscaping during the day or a community member washing their vehicle at home.

Jeff Armstrong, interim general manager for the district, said there are at least three things customers can do to begin saving water.

“The first one is very obvious and simple – fix the leaks,” Armstrong said.

Local CHEF from page A-1 death of someone who died in the military, is still a major part of Hall’s life.

“Now, we’re preparing for a widow’s retreat to climb Mount Kilimanjaro,” Hall said.

To prepare for the journey, Hall and a small group of TAPS survivors, will train over the next several weeks for the climb up the 19,000 foot mountain in Africa.

“We wanted to challenge ourselves more, to experience greater things,” Hall said. She is preparing for her journey in a variety of ways, by running, hiking, and climbing locally at Monserate Mountain near Fallbrook, Calif.

“I’m going to video as much of my progress as possible and journal,” she said. “I’m always trying to do something new, to challenge myself more and always to set the best example for my kids.”

Hall will climb Mount Whitney in July for altitude training, and will climb Mount Rainier. In between, she spends time training with friends climbing the vistas in and around Temecula and sharing with followers over her Facebook page.

“It’s important for me to catalog this journey,” Hall said. “I want to

show them that you can achieve anything you set your heart to.”

Hall’s children are her inspiration, and while she strives to raise them as she and her husband intended. Within TAPS, she can share of herself, in the midst of her husband’s legacy.

“I have my own stories here, mine are more family related.”

Hall strives now to do things that both she and her husband were saving for his retirement. When the news of the Mount Kilimanjaro journey reached her, she signed up within minutes.

“I put off things before. Now, I take one trip a year for the family and one for myself,” she said. “I’ve swam in the Dead Sea, the lowest point on the earth, and now I’ll go to the highest point I can reach, the summit of Kilimanjaro.”

Hall’s TAPS journeys have included marathons, traveling to Alaska for the Iditarod along with her fellow “Widsters” as they call themselves.

The leader of the Mount Kilimanjaro trip, Kyle Harper—a Director at TAPS—also a survivor, following the death of her fiancé, Michael Hullender, an Army medic from Fort Richardson. Harper is organizing the TAPS journey to Mount Kilimanjaro.

TAPS got involved in extreme sports around 2001, during an armed

Monserate Mountain in Fallbrook is the start of Xiomara Hall’s journey to Mount Kilimanjaro. The celebrity chef, mother and Marine widow Courtesy photos calls it “a spiritual journey.”

amount of training, but I’ve never felt so inspired. It got me thinking.

What’s my legacy? I know Mike’s.

“Survivors, widows, and family are so proud of their loved ones.

They’re inspired by them,” Harper said. “We need to take that and create something to inspire ourselves and give that experience to others.”

When Harper began her climb, she refused to be intimidated.

“All I could think when I saw Aconcagua was that it looked so huge,” she said. “It was so far away and intimidating, but slowly, we kept moving toward the summit. It made me think about what I was capable of, and where am I going from here?”

That desire to focus on her own story, as well as her loved one, hit home for Hall. Now, she is preparing for the journey to Africa and purchasing equipment for the 39-mile trek that will take seven days.

“This isn’t something I want to fail at. I’m putting in extra effort up front, there are so many things leading up to this journey,” she said. “I plan on being open and honest, not so care-

ful or calculated, or to use humor to hide my pain. I’m real with it. I crack jokes. I’m being more open in the moment, and own it for what it is.”

Her military training rears its head at defining moments, during training, or on Hall’s outgoing social media platform.

“I’m sure I’ll have those moments, when I’ll want a refund. Others will, too. We’ll talk it out, like we always do,” she said. “When you’re healing and grieving, you can focus on others, let a little out. It makes things better.”

Hall consistently raises money for local Temecula charities, such as Oak Grove Center for Arts and Education Therapy, Rancho Damacitas, and others. She believes helping others makes you feel better.

“Helping other people creates positive energy, and helps you heal,” she said. “I’m so grateful I can be at the emotional capacity I am now.

Climbing Kilimanjaro will be a spiritual journey for me.”

Death of Sam Pratt, former Temecula councilman marks end of activist era as city’s growth ebbs Tim O’Leary Staff Writer

Sam Pratt, a popular slow-growth activist who captured a seat on the Temecula City Council, has died.

He was 96.

Seen as a colorful, quixotic leader, Pratt initially led a cadre of growth-wary residents in thwarting a massive project that would have dramatically changed the face of Old Town. A wave of voter support catapulted him into office in 1998 at 80 years old, and he served one term before he was ousted without implementing any lasting reforms.

His death may mark the end of an activist era in Temecula that stridently called for slow growth and pressed for the rapid construction of road improvements and other infrastructure.

“He was such an important part of Temecula the time he was here,” May Lorah, a longtime friend and political ally, said in a telephone interview. “He was an amazing man.”

Pratt died in Washington state, where he moved in August 2005 to be closer to family members. He periodically kept in touch with his Temecula contacts, but those communications faded as he aged and his wife, Keila, passed away.

Word began circulating on Sunday that Pratt had died on May 29.

Much of the information came from a two-page letter that Pratt’s five children sent to local leaders, the media and other recipients.

“Dad was memorable to all the friends and family members who were in his life,” the message stated.

“He never met a stranger!”

Pratt was a leader of two watchdog groups that played visible roles in Temecula politics by staking out key positions in growth and local government issues. Both groups faded as members moved, became less active or their objectives were met.

The first group formed in the early 1990s in opposition to a developer’s plans to build a Western-theme entertainment complex in Old Town.

With Pratt as a key leader, the Temecula Old Town Advancement

League fought Zev Buffman’s plan to develop a plateau west of the historic business district as well as 8.5 acres that spanned out from Main and Mercedes streets.

The 271 acres west of Old Town was owned by John Firestone, a Texas land magnate. Firestone purchased his tract long before Temecula became a city in 1989. The parcels flanking Main and Mercedes streets were owned by numerous business and property owners.

Buffman – a Broadway producer, arena builder and a founding partner of the Miami Heat pro basketball team – cobbled together a plan to develop a project that would play off Old Town’s historical setting.

Buffman rounded up some early financial backers, but he triggered a firestorm of community opposition.

Buffman won a narrow victory in a March 1995 advisory election, but a grassroots group headed by Pratt and others packed city hearings and filed lawsuits against the project.

Construction start dates came and went as TOTAL pursued a range of tactics to fight Buffman’s plan.

A retired engineer, Pratt spent untold hours speaking at meetings, preparing documents for an environmental lawsuit and taking other steps aimed at overturning the approvals that had been granted to the $74.5 million project.

Buffman eventually experienced financing problems, and he attempted to shift the project to Murrieta.

Lawsuits filed by Pratt and Firestone were both dropped after the Buffman project unraveled in Murrieta.

As TOTAL curtailed its involvement in city issues, another formed with Pratt as its champion. That group, which called itself Citizens First of Temecula Valley, had a core membership that included Lorah and several other activists.

The work of Citizens First members, along with Pratt’s broad name recognition, helped lift him to a victory at the polls in the November 1998 council election. At that time, Lorah and other leaders of the Citizens First group dubbed themselves “Sam fans” as they set out to tackle development-related issues and seek

the property in February 2013. A development company has submitted plans to build about 1,700 homes, apartments and condominiums there. That project, which has not spurred any organized opposition, is expected to include a park, an elementary school and a four-lane road that would bisect the area.

Pratt’s family said he should be cited for saving Temecula’s “citizens from a flim-flam man and a waste of millions of dollars.”

Lorah agreed, saying the Buffman project probably would have been built if Pratt had not intervened. Old Town has fared much better with the development of the Civic Center and the flurry of private commercial development that has energized its economy, she said.

The family’s letter detailed Pratt’s youth in Michigan and his trip to the 1933 World’s Fair in Chicago and an outing to a 1934 World Series game in Detroit. It told of his love of art and tennis, and how at the time he was believed to be the youngest person to pass the test for a California structural engineer’s license.

He served as a lieutenant aboard a Navy ship during World War II. Afterward, Pratt and his wife lived in Michigan, Texas, Indiana and six California cities.

Pratt and his wife were married 66 years. In addition to five daughters and their spouses, the couple is survived by 11 grandchildren, three great-grandchildren and numerous cousins, nephews and nieces.

a growth moratorium.

Unlike most cities in the region, Temecula’s council has experienced scant turnover since incorporation.

As about 45 candidates can attest, ousting an incumbent has proven to be a rare task. Just 14 people have served on Temecula’s five-member council over the city’s history.

Only two incumbents – Pratt and Karel Lindemans – have lost a re-election bid since Temecula became a city.

Lindemans was elected to the first council when Temecula became a city. He failed to win re-election in November 1992. Lindemans returned to the council in November 1994. He served for another five years before opting not to seek re-election and move to the Palm Springs area. He eventually died there.

Pratt remained an outspoken advocate of slow growth while he was on the council, but his efforts to boost mass transit and make other changes failed to gain traction. He was often targeted because of his offbeat ideas, which including taking advantage of Lake Elsinore’s water supply by locating a nuclear power plant there.

The growth moratorium fizzled and the Citizens First group went on to challenge several Temecula-area development projects, including a Wal-Mart store that was eventually built at Temecula and Meadows parkways.

Citizens First’s influence waned after the group settled a lawsuit against the Wal-Mart project in 2003 and one of its founders moved. Pratt lost his council re-election bid to Chuck Washington, who now serves as a Riverside County supervisor.

Temecula purchased the land at Main and Mercedes streets and opened its sprawling Civic Center complex there in December 2010.

Lorah stopped fighting land use proposals as the remaining tracts of open land dwindled in the city. She now serves as the treasurer of the Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival.

Firestone failed in a bid to develop his land on his own, and he sold

Lorah and others said Pratt will be remembered in Temecula for his keen insights, gentle demeanor and concern for the community.

“He was a man of his word and an honorable man. I had more respect for him than anybody,” Lorah said.

“Sam lit people on fire. You were either pissed off at him or you loved him.”

Melody Brunsting said Pratt was down to earth, open and friendly.

She recalled having a “real honest, heart-to-heart talk with him” while he served on the council.

“I liked him,” said Brunsting, who works closely with the city in organizing special events in Old Town and the wine country. “I know people had issues with him, but I liked him. He also worried a lot – about traffic – and rightly so.”

Temecula’s ‘Star Spangled Concert in the Park’ postponed Due to anticipated traffic impacts resulting from the Rancho California Road resurfacing project that will be taking place on June 13 and June 14, the City of Temecula Community Services Department will be postponing the free community concert “A Star Spangled Concert in the Park” by the Valley Winds Community

Concert Band.

The event which was scheduled to take place at the Temecula Civic Center in Old Town on Sunday, June 14, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. will be rescheduled at a later date.

Josephine “Jo” Walderrama Barrios Wahdan, 78, of Roseville, Calif., passed away peacefully in her home on June 1, 2015.

Jo was born on a stormy night in an old Model T on the way to the hospital on January 11, 1937 in rural Firebaugh, Calif. to Jose Barrios and Elvera Balderama. Her mother remarried and Jo was close to her stepfather, Louie Villa. She grew up in the migrant farms, spending her childhood in King City, Soledad, Castroville, Salinas, and the fields in between. She graduated from Salinas High School in 1955,

joined the U.S. Navy under the GI Bill and was honorably discharged in 1957. She trained in Maryland before being stationed in San Diego, where she met and married her first husband and gave birth to her son, Dean.

Jo was the first person in her family to go to college. She studied Library Science at San Diego City College and then earned a B.A. in foreign languages from San Diego State University in 1970 and a Masters of Library Science from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee in 1975.

She met her second husband and they had two daughters, Laila and Nadia. Jo became a community librarian at the Milwaukee Library, creating a library for the Latino community, before relocating to California in 1978. During this time, she was one of two Hispanic head librarians in all of California.

As the County Librarian at the San Benito County Free Library, she developed the Friends of the Library program and brought in the first computers. Jo retired after 25 years and moved to Temecula, Calif. and then to Roseville, where she enjoyed billiards, tai chi, and

dancing. She was also an accomplished poet who spoke multiple languages, including Arabic, German, and Spanish.

Jo was passionate about giving back to the community and fought discrimination and educational inequality. As a librarian, she initiated an adult literacy program, Japanese and Native American collections, and a bookmobile to increase access. She was a crusader for the Barrios Unidos program and co-founded the Youth Alliance. The California Legislature Assembly recognized her work in 2004.

After she retired, she tutored many children and volunteered at the Temecula Police Station, Noli Indian School Library and Boys & Girls Club.

Jo was a compassionate person who greatly loved her family, friends and community. Her sister Anita remembers, “We were all very close. Of all the sisters, I feel she was the strongest.” Jo was particularly proud of her Mexican and Native American (Pima) heritage, volunteering at pow wows with the Tena Indian Council.

Jo will be greatly missed by her daughters, Laila Wahdan with sonin-law Nima Shams, Nadia Wahdan with son-in-law Chaun Emery, her daughter-in-law Lucy Burni, and grandchildren Janan, Jasmine, Abed, Kai, and Jaydon as well as her siblings, Anita Zaragoza, Julia Aguilar and Louie Villa, Jr., and her cats, Snowie and Pumpkin. Jo is preceded in death by her parents, her son Dean Burni, and her siblings Frank Barrios, Jesse Barrios, Dolores Barrios, Guadalupe Vargas, and Vera Villa.

In lieu of flowers, Jo’s wish was that donations be made in her memory to the Youth Alliance, PO Box 1291, Hollister, CA 95024.

Memorial service with Veteran’s honors will be held on Friday, June 12, 2015 at 1 p.m. at the Sacramento Valley National Cemetery, 5810 Midway Road, Dixon, CA 95620.

Fox Mountain Adventure Camp gives away camper experience for local kids

Hiking at Fox Mountain Adventure Summer Camp.

Ashley Ludwig Staff Writer Fox Mountain Adventure Camp is the result of one dreamer’s vision to create the essential camping experience for all.

“We don’t have an exclusive camp at Fox Mountain,” stated Michael Baum, director of Fox Mountain Adventure Camp. “What we have is available to all who want to share in a retro adventure on what summer camp should be.”

Recently, Fox Mountain Adventure Camp offered free weeks of camp through Valley News and three winners were selected. Fox Mountain looks forward to seeing those kids having fun this summer, according to Baum.

Fox Mountain Adventure Camp began following Baum’s discovery of the property while working for San Diego County. When he discovered that the educational site was empty, he decided that someone needed to do something to keep that location from falling into disrepair from lack of use.

“The space was ideal. Now we rent it during the summer months, and all funds go to support outdoor education at Cuyamaca. It’s a win for everyone,” he said.

Located at the base of Mount Palomar off of the 76 Freeway in North San Diego County, Fox Mountain Adventure Camps has long been a location to spark summer fun.

A graduate of Cognitive Psychol-

ogy, Baum intended on becoming a child psychologist, but transitioned to his love of adventure and travel.

“I turned my company into a place where people could go skydiving, bungee jumping, built on my passion for the out of doors.

Now I’ve turned my focus into kidbased experiences. Creating fun and active ways they can engage with the world outside.”

The Fox Mountain Camp has been around since the 1970s according to Baum and is one of the oldest outdoor education centers in the United States.

“What we’ve created at our adventure camp is the traditional east coast camping experience,” he said. “It’s overnight camping, no religious affiliations, just an open invitation to come and experience camp with counselors, camp food, and camp spirit.”

Kids who come range in age from 10-17-years-old, with a base program in overnight adventure camp.

10 to 15 kids sign up per session.

“Our new camp is the High School Improvisational Performer Camp led by the comedic improvisational actor Steve Homan, of the National Comedy Theater in San Diego,” Baum said.

After reaching out to Homan, the two developed a high school program that would serve the youth as well as Fox Mountain Adventure Camp.

“The Improvisation Performer Camp has gone really well thus far,” he said.

Tire recycling event to be held in Wildomar

Building friendships that last, Fox Mountain Adventure Summer Camp provides an East Coast sleep-away camp experience in San Diego County.

Other camp sessions include Leaders in Training—a two week intensive training course for 16 and 17-year-olds that focuses on certified training and team building.

“Our Leaders in Training help put on night activities for other campers in their second week of cambing.

It’s really cool to see them step into the leadership rolls, like our Nighttime Laser Tag event,” Baum said.

During the camp season, Fox Mountain Adventure Camp will be populated with 20 to 40 kids per week, around 120 kids each summer. Camp starts July 6 and runs through Aug. 8.

“I spend most of the year working on getting the camp ready, on team building programs, and publish-

ing,” Baum said. His book “Camp’s Over, Now What?” has recently become an Amazon.com bestseller.

“It’s amazing to see what Fox Mountain Adventure Camp has grown into,” he said. “We started with one program for kids ranging in age from 10-15-years-old and have grown 4 or 5 times that since then.”

Campers can expect to go rock climbing on real rocks, to play giant board games – complete with oversized dice – that involve whole cabins in challenges, as well as the Laser Tag games brought by Equinox Laser Tag, according to Baum.

“Laser Tag is always at night,” he said. “There is music, lasers, barriers and it’s a blast for everyone.

Baum is already looking to what comes next even before this year’s camp season begins, and has finalized dates for camp in 2016.

“We’ve asked people what they want out of our camp experience and next year are looking at doing a 3-day Adult Adventure Camp,” he said.

The Adult Adventure Camp will focus on the things the kids camp does, with hiking, archery, swimming, but add wine tasting, beer tasting, live performances, music nights and more.

“It will be a nice mix,” Baum said, “Just adults that week, so no kids on site when the adult camps are in session.

As always, Fox Mountain Adventure Camp is an all-staff hire camp, with standards better than the American Camp Association Standards for all staff hired.

“There are about ten kids per session, and two counselors that are college age and older. They are quality staff,” Baum said. “We realize that you can go anywhere to go to camp but at Fox Mountain, it’s the people who make it special.”

T

he Old Town Temecula antique scene has some new flavors to offer, thanks to entrepreneur and restaurant owner, Angie Bustamante. Visiting the over 250 individual shops at Granny’s Attic Antique Mall can make even the most diligent antique hunter hungry. Next time, plan to recharge and refresh yourself with a visit to the newly remodeled Aaah Le Fruit Juice Bar and Café.

Aaah Le Fruit is a perfect spot to grab a bite before you buy, or to take a fresh juice, smoothie, or lunch to go following a successful shopping venture.

The former waffle sandwich shop was recently transformed into a healthy café style restaurant, thanks to owners Bustamante and daughter Liz Vera. They serve clients for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Brightly colored walls, fresh tiled floor, and buzzing soda case will greet you upon entry along with Bustamantes’

to start the juice and sandwich business again.”

A decision built on staying close to family, Bustamante and Vera jumped at the location inside Old Town Temecula’s famed Granny’s Attic. When asked about the name, Bustamante said that they built it on a feeling.

“We wanted to remind of tasting something truly satisfying,” she said. “Our vision is growing every day.”

Bustamante is a woman of many talents, including the design of the restaurant in what she calls an “easy to duplicate format,” and hopes to bring into chain form within three years. Her menu boasts traditional flavors specific to Guadalajara, Mexico, where she grew up.

“Our Agua Frescas, Escamochas, and specialty smoothies are uniquely flavored with family recipes,” she said. “Everything is made to order, fresh, and delicious.”

Customers can expect to spend less than a latte for smoothies or fresh fruit and veggie juices. One

A natural to put her baked goods in the display cases, she offers any number of treats, such as spiced carrot cake, muffins and more.

“The baked goods are one thing,” Bustamante said with a smile, “but our triple decker sandwiches are what we’re known for, even after just a few months.”

‘American Idiot’ takes the Broadway Starz stage in Temecula Ashley Ludwig Staff Writer

Temecula Theater takes a trend toward modern grunge with the “American Idiot” rock opera performance launching this week at the Broadway Starz Theater.

The show will run from June 1121, and is produced by both Broadway Starz and HeyDay Productions.

The tickets are $25 each and on sale for a limited time at a 2-for-1 price through HeyDay.com.

“The show ‘American Idiot’ is a sung-through stage adaptation of the punk rock band Green Day’s rock opera,” stated Robert Walker of HeyDay Productions. “All of our actors are local to the valley and their voices and choreography are amazing.”

The original Broadway musical won two Tony Awards for Best Scenic Design of a Musical (Christine Jones) and Best Lighting Design of a Musical (Kevin Adams). “American Idiot” also won a Grammy Award for Best Musical Show Album.

“The musical tells the story of

three lifelong friends forced to choose between their dreams and the safety of suburbia,” Walker stated in a press release. “The show is their quest for true meaning in a post 9/11 world.”

Expanded from the concept of the original album released in September 2004, the story centers on three disillusioned young males, Johnny, Will and Tunny. Johnny and Tunny flee their suburban lives and stifling parents as Will remains to figure out the drama of having a pregnant girlfriend, Heather. While one group seeks for the meaning of life in the excitement of the city, Tunny gives up, joins the military, and goes to war. Johnny struggles with drug addiction, and seeks to re-find himself, ending up on a journey into lost love.

Sets, stage, lighting, and sound will be in typical Broadway Starz theater flair, according to Walker.

“We’re excited to see this show begin. The themes of (the show) are adult focused, and parents need to be advised, this is not a show for younger children,” Walker said. “‘American Idiot’ deals with some

heavy topics of premarital sex, drug addiction, war and self-discovery.

The cast handles it all with dynamic performances and sound.”

The music is based upon the ‘90s band Green Day’s Grammy Awardwinning multi-platinum album, “American Idiot.”

“This soundtrack boldly takes the American musical where it’s never gone before,” Walker said.

Songs that are featured in the performance include such hits as “Boulevard of Broken Dreams,” “21 Guns,” “Wake Me Up When September Ends,” “Holiday” and the blockbuster title track, “American Idiot.”

The score for the Broadway smash hit includes the full complement of songs from “American Idiot,” as well as additional Green Day Songs from other sources, including “21st Century Breakdown,” and other unreleased songs originally recorded for the “American Idiot” album, according to release.

Music and lyrics were compiled

by Green Day’s lead singer Billie Joe Armstrong.

“American Idiot” cast does an early preview for their upcoming Broadway Starz show, June 11-21, produced by HeyDay productions.

“There are only six performances of the show and tickets are limited,” Walker said.

Temecula Valley Museum to host Summer Bazaar Kim Harris Managing Editor The Temecula Valley Museum Board of Directors in conjunction with the Temecula Valley Women’s Club, will host a Summer Bazaar at Sam Hick’s Monument Park on Saturday, June 13. The event, which runs from 8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m., will offer a plethora of local artists, crafters, specialty food vendors and much more, according to TVM’s Board of Directors member Fred Lamb.

“It only has certain restrictions, on the type of exhibits that can be in there aside from the fact that we are not allowed generators,” Lamb said.

“Pretty much it’s an open bazaar in that there are some food vendors who have been contracted to provide food for attendees, there are crafters, artists, people with clothing lines and nonprofits. It’s really a potpourri of things and we don’t limit it though we try to not have duplications of competitive things.”

As in previous years, the TVWC will run the snack shop.

“They help us in many ways,” Lamb said. “They have a Museum committee involved with us.”

Lamb said that the event is just one of many fundraisers the museum does to pay for programming and furthering its mission to accurately portray the stories of Temecula Valley’s past and present through dynamic, fun and exciting exhibits that appeal both to local residents and visitors to the area.

“The funds from the booth space rentals is the money that goes directly to the museum, all of our fundraisers whatever they might be are for the main purpose of supporting the museum costs, expenses, things they may need outside their budget to enhance the museum advance the history or culture, that’s our purpose.”

There is also a wedding chapel on the premises that brings in funds for the museum, Lamb said.

Limited 10-foot by 10-foot booth spaces are still available for the event and can be reserved by calling (951) 694-6450. Cost is $40 for each space that can be used to sell crafts and other approved items or promote an

organization.

The event is held twice a year, in June and October, Lamb said.

Friends of the Temecula Valley Museum is just one way that interested parties can become involved with the museum. The group is always accepting members and a variety of membership opportunities are available.

Volunteering at the museum is an-

other great way to become involved, Lamb said. The museum’s volunteer program includes docents, gift shop volunteers, summer explorers, high country and miscellaneous projects.

No advance knowledge or training is needed, only a desire to learn and a willingness to share knowledge is required to become a volunteer.

Information on Friends of the Temecula Valley Museum, the mu-

seum’s volunteer programs, as well as information on the museum itself, can be found online by visiting www. temeculavalleymuseum.org.

Sam Hick’s Monument Park and the TVM are located at 28314 Mercedes St. in Old Town Temecula. The museum is open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. and on Sundays from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.

Franklin’s Cove hosts local talent, offers tasty pub fare in Murrieta

Down the street, or across town, Franklin’s Cove shows that kindness matters. “I want every customer to leave happier than when they came in,” owner Frank Hallberg said.

O

n a Sunday evening in Murrieta, Franklin’s Cove is hopping. In the Y of the 15 and 215, off Murrieta Hot Springs Rd. and Hancock Pkwy., this bar and grill serves the masses with tasty treats and an extra helping of kindness.

“People can go out to eat anywhere,” Frank Hallberg, owner of Franklin’s Cove said. “It’s my goal to make sure everyone leaves happier than when they arrived.”

Inside, the former Spelly’s bar is already changing, though Hallberg has more changes in the works.

“It’s taken several months to get the restaurant lease worked out, to get things done to change it over,” he said. “Look for changes in paint, in restaurant flow coming soon. But in the meantime, the biggest changes are in our daily specials.”

Franklin’s Cove offers specials every day, and is family focused and friendly. With two pool tables, juke box, and games, and multiple televisions over the well-appointed bar there’s something for everyone here for an early dinner or weekday lunch.

“This place is spacious – over 6,000 square-feet inside. We are striving to make Franklin’s Cove into an upscale sports bar,” Hallberg said.

When you come, choose to sit in one of the many booths, high top tables, or in the large restaurant.

Even on a Sunday night, the place was packed with customers ready to listen to the Temecula Valley Music Awards showcase.

“We host a different sort of ‘open mic night’ here,” Hallberg said. “It’s an acoustic set, so no one has to deal with cables or sound.

Lots of musicians come and just jam together. It’s a great time.”

Finding a seat was no trouble, even with the crowd. With family along for the dinner and show, we sat down at a booth with a great view of the stage and reviewed the multi-page menu. Typical bar

dition of Brittany Spears “Toxic” that showcased her own trilling vibrato, and ended with resounding applause from those present.

The Franklin’s Cove fried zucchini arrived thinly sliced with a crunch, served with a spicy marinara and ranch option. Tasty for all, this breaded treat crosses that bar food, easy night out barrier.

The kids ordered up their chicken strips and crinkle cut fries, again, an easy no brainer for our table, though sliders were a close second. On Sunday, kids 10 and under eat free off the kids menu, making this the perfect night out with the littles.

We ordered fried zucchini from the appetizers menu, drinks for the kids, and sat back for the TVMA showcase.

Julia Lucius took the stage with her guitar, sass, and a lilting trill in her voice that captured attention. Her songs ranged from sultry to upbeat, all with a unique spin.

Singing original songs with a zip in her voice, Lucius ended with a ren-

website for more specials, with something each day of the week, from happy hour pricing, to express lunch offerings midweek.

We ordered a sampling from healthy to hearty, with the wedge salad, chicken Caesar salad wrap, and French dip. The wedge salad, with dressing on the side, was topped with a hearty helping of chopped tomatoes and crumbled bacon and blue cheese, decadent in flavors and crunch.

All the while, Alaina Blair crooned her set with the box-drum

beat. Recently seen at the Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival, Blair is next up to sing in Hawaii, as well as overseas for the troops, according to Joanna Pearl, another TVMA board member and local artist. The music, the busy pace of the open aired bar and grill, all lend to enjoying the talent of these local TVMA performers.

The chicken Caesar wrap arrived, wrapped in a spinach tortilla and full of flavor. Juicy and delicious chicken, romaine lettuce, and light Caesar dressing, big enough to share, and definitely a table winner. For meat lovers, the French dip was a close second, served on toasted roll, thinly sliced roast beef and melting cheese.

Order with the horseradish option for added zip.

Franklin’s Cove offers a full bar, along with local beer and wine.

Something for every palate. Servers buzz through the crowd with a smile, and treat each table with special attention as ordered up by Hallberg.

“We want all of our servers to remember that the customers are special,” he said. Indeed, the “clean platers” at our table were served up with a bowl of vanilla ice cream with a cup of chocolate syrup on the side.

“This is an ideal spot to hang out with atmosphere for friends and family,” Heather Rawlings of Murrieta said.

Franklin’s Cove is an ideal spot to celebrate a birthday as well, and this night was no exception. Rawlings, TVMA board member, and birthday girl for the night, received the rare treat of a perfectly harmonized “Happy Birthday to You” song, sung by Temecula Road, Lucius, and Blair, among other artists present. Mylar balloons passed out

by Hallberg decked the chairs, and turned whole of Franklin’s Cove into one big party.

“That has to be the best birthday song sung in history,” one diner laughed.

The high point of the show was a set sung by the trio, Temecula Road, showcasing their new iTunes release, “Paper or Plastic.”

The trio’s harmony is reminiscent of Lady Antebellum, and their rapidly growing fan base filled the tables for their 7 p.m. set.

Hallberg stood back, watching the crowd and the full tables, as meals were plated and served and glasses filled.

“This place is one of those rare gems in Murrieta,” he said of his restaurant. “I can’t wait to show everyone what we have in store.”

Crowther graduates Linfield, immediately hits soccer field for Mexico National team JP Raineri Sports Editor Recent Linfield graduate, Jackie Crowther, has seen her fair share of success as a student athlete while on and off the campus of the Christian School located in Temecula.

A multi-sport athlete, Crowther has run in State high school crosscountry finals, seen countless hours on the soccer field, been named MVP of the league, was dubbed Ambassador League Runner of the Year more than once for Track and Field, and did it all while carrying above a 4.0 GPA. She plans to study neuroscience while on scholarship at Baylor University this upcoming year when she embarks on her college journey, but not before returning to the world spotlight this summer as a part of the U-20 Mexican National Soccer team.

Crowther, who has dual citizenship since her mother was born in Mexico, played in the 2014 FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup for the Mexican National team and now a year older and stronger looks to have the same success this year with the U-20 team.

U.S. Soccer staged a four-team Under-20 women’s international tournament from June 2-6 where all the matches were played on the Glenn “Mooch” Myernick Field at the U.S. Soccer National Training Center in Carson, Calif.

The Temecula native made an appearance in game 1 when Mexico took on Brazil’s U-20 National Team, which Brazil won 1-0. Mexico kept Brazil scoreless for the whole first half. In the second half, an Olympic goal put Brazil ahead. After the score, Mexico was unable to maximize its opportuni-

ties. Crowther came in at the 56th minute in an attempt by Coach Roberto Medina to move the team forward and create more scoring opportunities. Crowther was able to send some crosses to the box, but unfortunately the Brazilian defense did not allow for those crosses to

reach a Mexican attacker. The remainder of the matches and their results were not posted as of this article’s publication.

The invitational serves as a training tournament for the Mexican, Brazilian, American and Japanese U-20 teams as they prepare for their

respective confederation championships, which can lead them to earn a spot in the 2016 U-20 World Cup. To follow all the action or find out more info, visit www.ussoccer. com.

Former soccer standout wins first European Championship JP Raineri Sports Editor

Dakota Collins is a former Temecula Valley Hawks Soccer Club player and Great Oak High School alumni and is now in his second season as a professional soccer player with the NK Hask, which is a Croatian football club from Zagreb.

On May 27, Collins won his first European Championship, helping his team take the Croatia ZNS-a

Cup. This championship qualifies the team to compete in the coveted Croatian Cup next season and the champion of that will compete in another European Championship.

Last season Collins played in the USL for Sacramento Republic, winning the 2015 USL championship. Collins’ current team is finishing up their league season and Dakota will be back in Temecula during their break and will be working with young Temecula Hawks

players during that time. He will also be working with Hawks DOC David Halliday, a former youth coach of Collins, who he credits with teaching him the most important skills and tactics needed by a young soccer player to advance to a higher level.

While not playing, Collins hopes to be able to work with young players and help teach them some of the same things he learned as a youth player.

HOME & GARDEN

Ten Year Journal makes home and life organization easy on users Kim Harris Managing Editor Everyone knows I am a list maker. If I need to go to the grocery store, there’s a list. If I am working on stories for the week, there is a list. If I am cleaning the house, there’s a list.

As a homeowner, my biggest list is surely the one I have for all the projects I want to accomplish in my house.

There’s the list for repairs, must haves that need to be handled immediately, like my now malfunctioning garage door, that crack in the tile on my kitchen floor, the need to regrout the area by my door that leads from the garage into the laundry room, and let’s not even mention the explosion of junk that has accumulated into an enormous pile in my garage.

There’s also my wish list. Remodeling projects, like replacing my cellular blinds with some nice two-inch wooden blinds, new carpeting upstairs, new wood floors in the dining room, family room and my bedroom, those are the kinds of projects I can really sink my teeth into and really look forward to knocking off my to-do list.

There’s an exterior/yard and garden list, mostly completed as of now. There’s just a few things left on that list that at one time included ripping out the sod and replacing the entire yard with drought tolerant landscaping, adding solar and pressure washing the house, something that will be placed on hold until this nasty drought goes away.

I have a list for all of the subcon-

tractors I use, the electrician, the plumber, the handyman, the painter and the list goes on and on.

There’s one problem with all of these lists, though. Where do I keep them all so they don’t get lost?

Enter the Ten Year Journal.

Back in April, I received a sample copy of the Ten Year Journal in the mail. I shoved it aside for a couple of weeks until things slowed down a bit for me, then finally broke into the box. Joy of joys!

This great leather bound book had everything I needed to organize my “to do” lists and everything in between.

I immediately dug out all of the business cards I have collected since moving into my home in 2012 (believe me that was easier said than done) and began by entering in contact information for all of the aforementioned subcontractors and then some.

Once I finished that I flipped over to the handy, dandy 10 year calendar “Daily Pages” and entered in all of my yard and home cleaning necessity information such as what weekend to wash walls inside the house, weeks to weed the gardens, cleaning out my swimming pool and Jacuzzi filters and every other

household chore under the sun that gets done on a monthly, weekly or daily basis. What was great about this was I didn’t enter it for just a month or an entire year, but for the next 10 years! Go ahead; ask me what I am doing on April 29, 2025.

I double dog dare you!

As I continued my journey of exploration into the Ten Year Journal, I discovered the event tracker and entered in all of the events that I need to make sure are covered for my job at the Valley News. I entered birthdays, anniversaries and every other date under the sun that needs to be remembered.

Then the real fun started. I went into the section called “Eleven Years of Plans,” and you guessed it, planned out those home projects, what I want to accomplish and when I want to do it. What fun to see it all laid out on paper in one easy to handle book.

After I finished entering the basics, I began filling in the gaps with other things as they pop up. I discovered this great leather-bound book, is not only good for home projects, but work projects, school stuff for my kids and husband, doc-

tor appointments, dentist appointments and the list goes on and on.

It’s not often that I get a product in the mail that I feel compelled to sing praises about. I have a pretty tight filter. But this is one of those products that everyone should keep in their desk, briefcase or purse.

The other day, as I threw all of my old notebooks full of lists, thoughts, plans and ideas into the recycle bin after writing it all down in one place, it dawned on me how much easier the Ten Year Journal has made my life.

Having sections including dated and lined pages, has kind of given me direction as to where to record what information. Users are limited only by their own imagination. This book could be a great gift for dad’s looking to organize their projects,

grads plotting their college days and future careers, newlyweds to record their first 10 years together or even for new parents to record their lives with their new additions.

What a great idea. It’s like a journal, address book and day planner rolled into one!

For me though, I love the idea of planning out my home projects in this journal. I love the idea of having all of the information I need at my fingertips to do the things that need to be done in both my personal and professional life and I love the idea of being able to look ahead 10 years to where I plan to be with all of these things.

While the video does not show the initial traffic stop, it does show an unidentified man and deputy standing near the vehicle when the struggle between the two men ensues before the deputy takes the man into custody.

“Upon stopping the vehicle, the deputy noticed open alcoholic beverage containers inside the vehicle as well as the odor of marijuana,” the statement continued. “As depicted in the video, the vehicle occupant caused a dangerous situation by refusing to comply with the deputy’s investigation and the deputy used force to effect the arrest of the subject.”

Man arrested for allegedly threatening girl LAKE ELSINORE—A 24-year-old man was taken into custody on Monday, June 8, suspected of grabbing a girl and threatening to harm her in a Lake Elsinore park and throwing a rock that hit another juvenile in the leg, police said.

The incident happened at Lake Elsinore City Park in the 200 block of Main Street at 12:30 p.m.

Sunday, said Lake Elsinore police Sgt. Todd Grimm.

“Four juveniles were playing in the city park. One of the juveniles noticed a male adult staring at her,’’ Grimm said. “The juvenile made a comment to the subject, who then grabbed her and made threats of bodily harm. The juvenile was able to escape the subject’s grasp and along with

Three youths arrested in $60K vandalism to Lake Elsinore church Daniel Lane Multimedia Journalist LAKE ELSINORE—Three youths were arrested on Friday, June 5 for vandalizing a church in their neighborhood, causing more than $60,000 in damage, the sheriff’s department reported.

The vandalism occurred on the night of June 1 at the First Lutheran Church in the 600 block of Sumner Avenue, Sgt. James Woodland said.

The suspects, who were not identified because they are minors,

smashed numerous windows, then slipped a running garden hose through one of the windows and left it running for hours, causing extensive water damage, the sergeant said.

“This act of vandalism is believed to be random and committed by neighborhood juveniles and is not believed to be motivated solely by hate,’’ Woodland said.

Sheriff’s officials, who are continuing to investigate the crime, declined to provide the suspects’ ages.

the other juveniles run from the location. As the juveniles fled, the subject threw a rock striking one of the juveniles in the leg.”

The man fled the park, but was located in a business at Main and Flint streets about 5:30 p.m. Sunday and arrested.

The suspect was identified as 24-year-old John Mann, a transient who was booked into the

Southwest Detention Center on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon likely to cause great bodily injury and criminal threats.

He was held in lieu of $25,000 bail, with a court appearance at the Murrieta Southwest Justice Center set for Wednesday, according to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.

Vehicle pile-up on I-15 causes rush-hour jam MURRIETA—A multi-car crash on Interstate 15 in Murrieta late on Monday, June 8 snarled rush-hour traffic and forced the temporary closure of all but two traffic lanes on the northbound side of the freeway.

The collision was reported about 5 p.m. near the exit for Winchester Road, according to the California Highway Patrol. The agency reported that three to four vehicles were involved, including an SUV

that was left with a collapsed engine compartment.

Riverside County Fire Department paramedics were sent to the location, but it was unclear whether anyone was injured.

According to reports from the scene, three of five traffic lanes were impassable for about a halfhour, after which several vehicles were apparently moved to the right shoulder of the freeway.

A driver caused a multi-vehicle wreck after fleeing the scene of an earlier accident at Pechanga Resort & Casino.

“The first deputy was there about a minute later,” Ruiz said. “It seems that earlier CHP handled a hit and run over at (the) casino when this traffic collision came out.”

The force of the second crash caused the suspect’s vehicle to go into oncoming traffic, Ruiz said.

“The driver of a silver Dodge Charger going northbound on Pechanga Parkway rear ended a Toyota Tacoma and (then) crossed over into the opposite lanes of traffic,” the deputy said. The driver then began going north in the southbound lanes and “he went head on into a white Honda Accord.”

Witnesses said multiple ambulances were on scene soon after the wreck.

“The three passengers of the Honda Accord were transported to a local hospital with minor injuries,” he said. “The driver was transported to the hospital with unknown injuries, however, he (was) admitted in the hospital.”

The crash forced a complete road closure until about 9 p.m., Ruiz said.

“It impacted both sides of the roadway and it was closed down,” he said. “The deputies did the best they could to collect evidence as quickly as possible prior to opening the roadway.”

According to witness Penny Bean, the man’s vehicle was smoking moments before the second crash and head-on crash occurred.

“We actually followed the grey vehicle from Pechanga as his car was smoking and smashed in front. We knew he was running from hitting a car at Pechanga by the way he was driving,” Bean said. “He rear ended a Toyota truck, became airborne, flew over the median, through a tree and head on in to a brand new white Honda with three passengers. They were all transported to the hospital, one a small child.”

“As I was giving my info to the officer, Pechanga officers arrived, the driver of the grey vehicle had hit three vehicles in the parking structure,” Bean stated.

The alleged driver of the hit and run vehicle remained hospitalized as of press time.

Emergency preparedness is not something to be taken lightly Kim Harris Managing Editor I’ve lived all over the country. I was born in New Jersey, grew up in Minnesota and as a military spouse have lived on both coasts. Everywhere I have had the pleasure to call home there has been some kind of emergency threat that I needed to be aware of and more importantly, prepared for.

There were tornadoes, severe storms, massive winter whiteouts, oppressive wind chills and floods back home in Minnesota, where most of my family still re-

sides. Hurricanes and other severe weather, including the snowy kind, were constant concerns in Jersey.

In Maryland, Virginia and Georgia we watched The Weather Channel religiously during hurricane season and here in sunny Southern California we have fires, earthquakes, droughts and even flash flooding.

No matter where you live in these United States, there is always something residents need to be prepared for.

In this week’s article “City of Temecula prides itself on emergency preparedness of citizens,” reporter Ashley Ludwig takes the time to discuss efforts by the city

in how they are prepared should a natural disaster – or a man made one – occur and what we, as residents, can do to prepare for them.

But Temecula isn’t the only city with a plan, on Murrieta’s website, www.murrieta.org and you can sign up for emergency alerts and learn more about the city’ emergency management plans. The city of Lake Elsinore also has a plethora of information available by visiting www.lake-elsinore.org and clicking on community life and then public safety.

Kudos for article on GMO dangers Dear Editor, Thank you for taking the courageous step to cover March Against Monsanto on your front page. My kids were featured in the picture and I could not be more proud of them for encouraging consumers to go organic and

of the Valley News for helping educate others on residents’ growing concerns of GMO policy and health risks.

I hope to see more valley residents reaching into GMO dangers. We all need to support sustainable agriculture to ensure

the safety of our children’s health and their future.

Thank you again for covering this valuable topic.

Don’t Miss Out

Several years ago my family and I, along with a large group of people, were invited to a friend’s house for dinner. At the time we were young, broke and very excited to eat food. When we arrived at the house there were some tables sitting nicely on the patio that were clearly set for children. When we walked inside we were more than excited to find a beautifully decorated table with individual place settings. It looked amazing!

Just about the time we were

wildfires and floods, this website gives tips on how to prepare for emergencies and resources in the event of a disaster. My family and I took several tips from this page and have our emergency kits prepared and ready based on information we obtained from Ready.gov.

Bottom line, we can’t prevent a natural disaster from happening, but in the best interest and safety of our families and friends, we can be ready should an emergency strike.

Take some time and familiarize yourself with the resources available to you, be informed, make a plan, build a kit, get involved and be prepared.

supposed to find our seats we were approached by our gracious host and informed that we would be sitting outside at the children’s table.

Needless to say we were not happy.

In fact, it ruined our whole dinner.

It wasn’t so much that we were asked to sit outside that ruined it.

To be honest it was my attitude that ruined it. I was so furious because I wanted to sit at the big boy table with the other adults that I lost sight of the privilege I had to sit at a table with my wife and children.

Did you know Jesus actually teaches us to take the worst seat?

He says, “When you are invited to a wedding feast (aka – dinner), don’t sit in the seat of honor. What if someone who is more distinguished than you has also been invited? The host will come and say, ‘Give this person your seat.’ Then you will be embarrassed, and you will have to take whatever seat is left at the foot of the table! Instead, take the lowest place at the foot of the table.” (Matthew 14:7-9) Sometimes we become so focused on self-promotion and our own comfort that we miss out on a great opportunity. We can spend

way too much time trying to figure out what’s best for us instead of what’s best for others. Sadly, I know I was and not just on this one occasion.

When we act like this we miss out on a great opportunity not only to follow Jesus’ teaching but also to enjoy the moment. Because of my bad attitude and desire to have a better seat I missed out. I missed the joy of being invited in the first place. And I missed having dinner with my wife and children and some life-long friends.

But my biggest mistake is that I missed out on honoring and serving the other guests sitting at the big boy table. How selfish of me to think I deserved to be there more than they did.

So don’t make the same mistake I did. Don’t miss out on the wonderful benefits of taking the worst seat.

Assemblywoman Marie Waldron Special to the Valley News As many doctors will attest, the prompt availability of medication is essential for the successful treatment of epilepsy. Government bureaucracy and red tape should not prevent epilepsy patients from having early access to cutting-edge drugs that have been proven successful in controlling this serious disease.

Since early treatment is so important, I introduced Assembly Bill 68 (AB 68), which allows Medi-Cal beneficiaries to promptly access the drugs necessary for controlling their condition. Since new drugs and treatments are being developed so rapidly, insurance formularies are often out-of-date and unable to keep up with the advances.

Consequently, current step therapy programs and drug formularies can prove to be barriers for epilepsy patients, worsening their condition by

delaying badly-needed treatment.

AB 68 creates an expedited 48 hour appeals process for Medi-Cal patients, allowing rapid and early access to the drugs they need by replacing the multiple appeals processes and long delays many patients are currently experiencing.

I am very pleased to report that AB 68 passed the full Assembly by a unanimous, bi-partisan vote on June 3. The bill will now be forwarded to the Senate, where prospects for final passage appear to be bright.

In the long run, I believe passage of AB 68 will result in improved health care and better lives for thousands of epilepsy patients living in California, as well as lower Medi-Cal costs and better stewardship of hard-earned taxpayer dollars.

Good drought tolerant landscaping can increase the value to your home

Linda McDonald-Cash Special to the Valley News Hello neighbors and fellow gardeners! I’m sure you’re all very aware that we’re in a drought now and need to conserve water, however, I’d like to give everybody a little more information on this, particularly as it affects our landscapes. I have been going to the Rancho Water District board meetings, and this past week, a public meeting in the evening, which I believe another reporter will be covering here, so I won’t go into too much detail about the fact that there were lots of angry people, it was standing room only, and the only member of the board who was even there to face the public was John Hoagland, the board president, and the only member of said board to not vote for allowing new building to continue.

Yes, you heard me correct. In the middle of this drought when we’re having to cut back one-third of our water use, it’s business as usual for the developers! New water meters along with new building. Pretty outrageous, huh?

Anyway, I’d like to explain a few things in regards to what I do as a landscape designer now.

The majority of my jobs are now for people who are participating in the “turf rebate” program with their local water district. I’ve discovered that many people don’t really understand the program, or sometimes, even what water district they’re in. In Riverside County here we are all “in” the Metropolitan Water District, which covers all of Southern California.

Additionally, in Riverside County we are also either in Western Municipal Water District or Eastern Municipal Water District (there may be more, those are two that I’m familiar with) and then we can also be “in” our own city’s water district, for example, here in Temecula, we have “Rancho California Water District”, and to make it even more confusing, some people in Temecula, could be in either WMWD or EMWD! There is a HUUUUGE difference between these, so it pays to find out first exactly where you fall in which district(s). EMWD, I’ve found is much easier to comply with their rules for “turf replacement”, you submit your application with photos, usually get your approval within two to three weeks. They pay for all area that has been landscaped “drought tolerant.” You then have four months to complete the project, and submit “finished” photos, they then cut your check for you.

Not so with WMWD, they require a “to scale” plan be submitted (typically done by somebody like myself) and they pay for drought tolerant plantings only – in other words they do not pay you for large areas that are gravel – you must have plant material over the ground. They have to come out and “inspect” the property, both before and after work and they give you

Another turf removal success story.

only three months to complete your landscape project.

There are also many differences between the various districts, head to San Diego County and many more down there, most are paying customers $3 sq. ft. for turf removal, as is Los Angeles County, and Orange County, some areas in Riverside County pay $3 sq.ft. and others, like here in Southwest Riverside County, continue to pay only $2 per square foot – yes, I did ask them to raise it! You can either apply directly online at your water districts site OR go to www.socalwatersmart.com which will then direct you to the place you need to be and provide an application to fill out and get you started.

The reason I believe turf removal is so important, and I highly recommend doing this before the water districts run out of funds, is that approximately 60 percent of residential water use is used outside the home – and the majority of that is for grass. If you remove your lawn, replacing it with drought tolerant plantings, possibly new pathways, some boulders, maybe a water permeable patio, you will save a good deal of watering, at least that 1/3 that we are now required to save.

I believe you will also add value to your home. Good landscaping adds anywhere from $10,000 to $20,000 to the value of the home, so you can easily see why you don’t want to just turn off your sprinklers as I see many homes doing now. Not only will your neighborhood, and property, look “blighted”, become a fire hazard, and lose value, but eventually when we pull out of this drought, probably next winter, you will then have to re-do your landscaping at a large cost.

typically effects more than just the lawn, you probably have a tree or two there, shrubs and other plants, all of which would suffer, possibly die, and then need to be replaced.

At the water board meeting last week, an individual stated that he was under the impression that relandscaping costs approximately $10 sq. ft. I told him he was very much misinformed, even though here in Temecula we’re only getting $2 sq. ft. for lawn removal, you can get a nice landscape done for $3 to $5 sq. ft., depends on what you want to add, whether you can do any of the work yourself, etc. You may have to spend a little now, but over the long haul you’ll save a lot!

Just an update for those who may not realize it, for some reason, we have mandatory water cutbacks of 30 percent now. We are billed on a “tiered” system, and we had four tiers, now we have only three. Tier

1 is for your inside water use, Tier 2 is for outside, and if you go over your allotted amount now, which is 30 percent less, you automatically get bumped into what was Tier 4 – very expensive believe me, and they’re adding fines onto that as well! So, there you have it, the bad news. Good news is they have funds for lawn removal rebates and you can participate in that now and have a water saving and beautiful landscape done which will save money and water now, and add value to your property for years to come!

As always I am available for design work and consultations, my specialty just happens to be drought tolerant landscapes!

Real Estate / Home & Garden

Technology and real estate is fine for those who get it, but what about those who don’t? compatible then you’re not going to be going paperless.

If you are not techy enough to understand the process and the steps needed to be taken, then make sure you have sufficient help available. Will your agent be available if you’re having difficulty opening an attachment or signing in to a secure site? You can’t be embarrassed to ask for help. While the process may seem second nature to your real estate agent who has done multiple transactions and possibly has been exposed to a computer before he could put a full sentence together you may not be. Just know that you can do it – if you have the right help and the right agent willing to make that help available.

Will your agent be flexible with you? Sure, you may commit to a paperless transaction but you wouldn’t be the first person who wanted to print it out and sign everything old school style. Will your real estate agent work with you on this or are they only doing business one way?

John Occhi and Mike Mason Special to the Valley News Technology continues to evolve at an astounding rate throughout all of society including everything from how we watch television to how we operate our cars. These are just two examples of technology effecting our daily lives with our own possessions…obviously technology is expanding its presence in every aspect of the world we live in.

I can remember making in home sales calls on seniors 20 years ago.

I recall finding it humorous when I saw a VCR blinking 12:00 – the default time on these ancient devices. Being the good guy that I am, I always offered to set the clock to the correct time, which was genuinely appreciated. Heck, I was even called back to reset the clocks when Daylight Savings Time adjustments were necessary.

The point is not that I’m a good guy, but that technology can be intimidating to those who have not kept up. There is a lot to grasp and for those of us who were not born playing video games before we could talk, we have a lot of catching up to do.

Technology and real estate agents Real estate agents have typically searched for any advantage they could find in order to position themselves to sell homes for the highest price possible, with the least amount of inconvenience to those involved.

Technology has done a great job of marketing properties across the Internet and streamlining the paperwork involved.

Most of what an agent does with technology really does help streamline the process of either selling a home or helping buyers find the right home for them. However, there is the concept of “paperless” transactions that can truly be overwhelming for everyone involved.

Before we get into what is involved with “paperless” transactions, let’s take a brief look back into the evolution of today’s paperwork flow.

Do you remember the fax machine?

In the late 1980s, fax machines became widely used in all aspects of business, to include real estate. No longer did the buyer’s agent have to make an appointment with the listing agent to present an offer. Rather now, once everything was signed, the buyer’s agent could just fax the offer to the listing agent.

In the morning, when the office opened up, it was not unusual to find multiple offers curled up (remember the thermal paper?) on the floor at the foot of the fax machine. Realize that each offer probably included no less than 20 pages…so it was very important to make sure there was plenty of paper in the fax machine at the end of the night.

The portable document format changed everything By the early 2000s the PDF practically made the fax machine obsolete. With this technology, an agent simply had to scan the document to create the PDF File which then could be attached to an email and easily sent to the other agent.

What made the PDF even more convenient was the 4-in-1 Printers that include the printer, a copier, a fax and the scanner.

PDFs are now being sent from agents to their clients, since nearly everyone has an email address. At this point agents are not only spending less time with other agents, they are now spending less face-to-face time with their clients.

The paperless transaction – is it right for you?

Today, more and more agents are fully embracing the “paperless” transaction. In theory, it’s a great thing and ultimately saves a lot of trees and reduces the carbon footprint we all leave behind. While this sounds positive, it can be just as intimidating as the flashing VCR clock was 30 years ago.

So, let’s try and understand exactly what a paperless transaction actually is. By simple definition it means not having to print out all of the paperwork involved in ether listing a home for sale or submitting an offer to purchase a home. There are two different ways to gather the electronic signatures: A secure email is sent to each party, who is verified. The process is nothing more than typing in your name, initials and the date; or each party signs there name using a digital touchpad on either a laptop computer, a tablet or a smartphone.

While this technology has been around for a little while now and has crept its way into mainstream financial transactions of all types it is no doubt a bit intimidating the first time you’re exposed to it. Certainly, in the midst of an already stressful real estate transaction, this may not be the time to learn about the technology for the first time.

Work with your real estate agent in advance Once you decide on the agent to represent you, either for purchasing a new home or selling your current home, make certain that you are comfortable with the technology that you will be asked to interact with.

Ask some questions including these: Ask your agent what is their preferred method of communication. Do you prefer a phone call to prepare for a showing or are you comfortable with a text message an hour before a potential buyer is scheduled to arrive? Would you prefer a market update to be delivered and explained personally or do you want an email that you can review at your leisure?

Communication is critical to any relationship and the one that holds your home in the balance, must be clear.

Find out how your agent will ask for signatures. Many agents are still in a transition themselves and may welcome the opportunity to go “old school” and collect wet signatures.

Others may work for a brokerage that requires all transactions to be paperless. If this is the case, and you’re comfortable with taking this on, ask your agent to give you a hands on tutorial session so that when the time

Ask the Agent

(800) 611-0726 #1041 Q: I had an opportunity to buy a property two days before the first open house, but with the price and location I am sure there will be multiple bids. Should I submit my offer before the agent holds the open house or after?

I’m concerned that if I make my offer before the open house, the agent will tell other potential buyers there is an offer and they will want to bid. But if I wait, more people may decide to bid if interest wanes.

— Thanks, Mitchell A : The seller, no matter who it is, Mitch, is sitting in the catbird seat and if they even smell a bunch a hint of bids coming in, they are just going to sit back and wait – and

they don’t have to take the highest offer, either!

They are going to take an allcash offer, first, so the owner does not have to be concerned with loan qualification by the buyer. If you are in that category (need a loan to buy), you may as well walk away now and go look for another property where there is not going to be a bunch bidders. You have to realize that the seller is being counselled by a real estate agent who has the seller’s best interests at heart. Any offer by you (that doesn’t match the listing price) will probably be shot down because it’s so soon after the listing comes out. If your offer gets it, then fine.

If not . . . 44 years as a broker tells me this, Mitch.

Red Cross urges summer blood and platelet donations to prevent seasonal shortage LOS ANGELES—The American Red Cross urges donors to choose their day to give hope to patients in need by donating blood or platelets during the “100 days of summer. 100 days of hope.” campaign, officially sponsored by Suburban Propane.

“Memorial Day marks the unofficial start of summer and vacation season, and the start of a seasonal decline in blood and platelet donations,” said Tony Briggs, external communications manager, Southern California Blood Services Region. “By choosing a day to give blood or platelets, volunteer donors can give hope and help maintain a sufficient supply for patients in need.”

Summer vacations and travel can contribute to less availability for people to give blood or platelets.

In a spring survey of Red Cross blood and platelet donors, nearly 90 percent indicated plans to take vacations this summer. However, patients don’t get a summer holiday or vacation from needing lifesaving blood. The Red Cross relies on volunteer donors for the 15,000 blood donations needed every day to support patients at about 2,600 hospitals and transfusion centers nationwide.

As official sponsor of the summer campaign, which begins Memorial Day weekend and runs through Labor Day weekend, Suburban Propane will support an advertising public awareness campaign about the constant need for blood and platelet donations, and encourage employees and customers to give.

Additionally, Suburban Propane employees will volunteer at Red Cross blood drives and facilities

nationwide in one of the largest national volunteer commitments to the Red Cross Blood Services from a corporate partner.

“The Suburban Propane family is proud to support the mission of the Red Cross and help ensure that blood and platelets are available for patients in need during the challenging summer months,” said Suburban Propane’s Chief Operating Officer Mark Wienberg. “By partnering with the Red Cross, we are able to continue a noble cause that improves the lives of those in our communities.”

The Red Cross has touched the lives of many Suburban Propane employees including Debbie Traub.

In May 2014, her 74-year-old father fell from a ladder while power washing his home and suffered lifethreatening injuries. He spent 20 days in the intensive care unit and received many blood transfusions.

Traub said that she now knows the importance of giving blood and makes a point to donate in honor of her father at the Suburban Propane headquarter blood drives. Her story is just one of many reasons Suburban Propane continues to advocate for blood and platelet donations to the Red Cross.

“Suburban Propane is the steadfast conduit to mobilize its employees, customers and community leaders nationally to support the Red Cross and the blood needs of communities we serve across the United States,” added Donna M. Morrissey, director of national partnerships for the Red Cross Biomedical Services. “Through the unwavering commitment of Suburban Propane, the lifesaving blood and platelet donations made

to the Red Cross may help families stay together, patients recover and people survive.”

How to donate blood Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org or call (800) RED CROSS (800-733-2767) to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver license or two other forms of identification are required at checkin. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with parental consent in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

About the American Red Cross The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to victims of disasters; supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s blood; teaches skills that save lives; provides international humanitarian aid; and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a not-forprofit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform its mission. For more information, visit redcross.org or visit on Twitter at @RedCross.

Don’t let the teen party season overwhelm you American Counseling Association Special to the Valley News If you have a teenager living under your roof, then odds are pretty good you’re facing the worries that go along with the teen parties that dominate this time of year. Whether it’s end-of-school or graduation celebrations or parties celebrating the beginning of the summer pool season, this is when the teen party scene is usually the liveliest.

It’s natural for parents to worry about their teens’ activities, especially when off partying, but some simple rules and guidelines can reduce both teen and parental stress.

First, insist that that you are given the name, address, phone number and parent names for any party your teen will be attending. If you don’t know the family, call the parents to make sure an adult will be present and no alcohol will be available. Make your call an offer to help and you can get your ques-

tions answered through a casual conversation without embarrassing your teen.

You also want to clarify driving arrangements and restrictions.

Riding with someone who’s been drinking or taking drugs is always forbidden. In such cases, your teen should know they can call you at any time for a ride, or that you’ll cover cab fare home and that there will be no repercussions or blame.

You want your teenager to understand that he or she is really only responsible for himself or herself. Make it clear there won’t be punishment just because others

at a party get out of control and act irresponsibly.

Teens should also agree to contact a parent should a party’s location be changed. Suggest excuses they can use to call (“I forgot my key”) so they won’t be embarrassed by checking in.

If your teen wants to sleep over at a friend’s, make it clear that you will want to call the parents to confirm they’ll be home and that this plan has their blessing.

And be sure to be there when your teen gets home to ensure all is well.

You and your teen should work

out the rules together. Get your teen’s input and offer suggestions on how to handle situations responsibly. You and your teen should agree on penalties when rules are broken.

Your goal is not to over-parent and ruin your teen’s fun, but, rather, to ensure that the upcoming party

season is safe and enjoyable for your teen and less worrisome for you.

Menifee chamber announces search for new director MENIFEE—Menifee is a vibrant city with a thriving business community. To better meet the needs of Menifee’s businesses and entrepreneurs, the Menifee Valley Chamber of Commerce announces that it is taking a new direction and will be seeking a new executive director.

The Board of Directors is grateful to Dorothy Wolons for her years of service in that role and for guiding the chamber during challenging times. Now it is time to take the chamber to a higher level — one that further strengthens its place in the Menifee community while providing new offerings, events and services to its members.

Look for the chamber to be even more dynamic in the weeks to come. While it is taking care to reorganize and make appropriate changes, it has not begun the search yet for a new director. The new executive should have experience managing a growing chamber, bring innovative programs to the organization and work with a wide variety of representatives from government, business, education and nonprofit sectors. Currently, the chamber will continue to work hard for our members and community under the interim leadership of Dee Cozart, Interim CEO.

“Menifee and the Inland Region as a whole have seen many changes in the last few years. It is crucial for a chamber to change with these times. The Menifee chamber remains a cornerstone of the Menifee community, one that will help lead the city during unprecedented growth,” said Tony Amatulli, chairman of the board of the chamber.

Andrew Vallejos will be taking the helm on July 1 after the Installation Dinner and annual Awards event to be held on June 5 at the Country Club at Soboba Springs in San Jacinto. The coming year will be challenging and rewarding as the chamber prepares for growth, op-

portunities and improved service to our members during the 2015-2016 business year.

For further information, questions or assistance with purchasing tickets for the Installation

Dinner, contact the chamber at (951) 672-1991.

For more information regarding the restructure or other related issues, contact Amatulli at (951) 657-2127.

Award-winning Bulldog Brewery celebrates its second anniversary MURRIETA—Bulldog Brewery, a family-owned and operated brew/ pub located at Jefferson and Date Streets in Murrieta, celebrated its second anniversary on May 30. It was created to provide top-notch craft beer and food served in an inviting family-friendly venue.

It was awarded the Best Beer Pub in the Inland Empire recognition in 2014. Live music on Friday and numerous special events throughout the year are hosted at the brewery.

It has become a treasure in the Murrieta/Temecula Valley. The brewery produces craft beer brewed by an experienced, nationally recognized brewmaster. It has 20 taps and consistently produces some of the finest beers in the region. The brewmaster has established a Beer Club which consists of 25 exclusive members who meet with the brewer monthly to sample new beers and converse with other beer fans.

The kitchen at the brewery is managed by a Cordon bleu-trained chef and is recognized as one of the finest kitchens in the valley.

CEO Tom Caso stated that “All food is prepared from scratch and the chef does not use a deep fryer or flat grill. It is definitely an amazing, heart-healthy menu. Bulldog Brewery is unique in that we serve food, beer, local wines, as well as house-made Sangria and root beer.

We have found that this is what consumers want, and it really isn’t being provided by the overwhelming majority of craft breweries.

Some breweries engage random food trucks to offer food, but the high cost and quality are often lacking.”

The brewery is staged to begin bottling, canning and kegging for distribution as the next phase of its growth.

“We feel our retail sales model provides the brewery the highest return on investment and we believe expansion regionally by way of wholesaling, as well as niche marketing, will enhance future expansion for additional locations both full service locations and beer filling sites,” Caso said.

The brewery has been funded entirely by its owners since inception two years ago. It will be seeking to raise investor capital in the near future to expand the business in the next phase of its growth. Professor and Partners Opportunity Fund, LLC is considering helping the brewery with a part of is financing plans.

Investors interested in being a part of the brewery’s growth should contact Caso at (951) 234-6640 or Dr. Paul Wendee, manager of the Professor and Partners Opportunity Fund, LLC, at (949) 218-7942.

EMWD adopts new drought regulations, changes to water budgets PERRIS—Eastern Municipal Water District’s Board of Directors recently moved the District into Stage 4a of its Water Shortage Contingency Plan and is asking customers to reduce outdoor irrigation by 50 percent.

The move is the most significant drought-response action to date by EMWD’s Board and went into effect on June 1.

Customers are asked to cut their outdoor irrigation in half effective immediately.

Under Stage 4a of the District’s Water Shortage Contingency Plan, Tier 3 of EMWD’s AllocationBased Tiered Rate structure will be eliminated and there will be a 10-percent reduction in Tier 2 (outdoor) budgets.

The move became necessary after the State Water Resources Control Board enacted strict regulations recently calling on all agencies to significantly reduce usage. EMWD must reduce its per-capita usage by 28 percent by February 2016.

If the district fails to reach its target reduction, it may be fined up to $10,000 per day. Those costs would ultimately have to be borne

by EMWD’s ratepayers.

“The most simple and effective way to meet these state-imposed mandatory use restrictions is to immediately cut all outdoor irrigation

by 50 percent,” EMWD General Manager Paul Jones said. “This will not only dramatically cut overall water use but will save customers money, as well.”

EMWD’s Board also revised its Administrative Code to limit all new development to a 0.5 evapotranspiration rate. This would require outdoor landscaping to be significantly more water efficient than current standards.

“We understand that this will have significant impacts on many of our customers,” EMWD President Randy Record said. “However, these actions are necessary in an effort to become compliant with regulations set forth by the State Water Resources Control Board.”

EMWD strongly lobbied for a more equitable approach with the State Board’s regulations. In the weeks leading up to Wednesday’s decision by the State Board, EMWD officials met repeatedly with state representatives, including Gov. Jerry Brown, and asked that a different methodology be adopted that would take into account climate, housing density and previous conservation measures that had resulted in demand-hardening.

The State Board ultimately chose to move forward with its plan to

Students display projects during Temecula Christian School open house Daniel Lane Multimedia Journalist Nearly 100 people attended the annual community open house and luau at Temecula Christian School on Friday, May 22.

The evening event was put on by the school to display works from all of the just under 50 students who attend the private school and to invite future students to see the campus, Principal Cindy Brisendine said.

“The purpose of the open house was for the (students) to display all of the activities and special projects they have been doing throughout the year for parents, extended family and friends to see,” she said. “All of the children had something on display for the open house.”

Those in attendance enjoyed games, a potluck, jump house for the kids, cake walk, face painting, cotton candy and a raffle with

large baskets that were donated by local businesses, according to Brisendine.

“We had one business that donated three large baskets with large high-end items in them,” she said.

“That is because their child attended the school five or six years ago. They brought the baskets because of how much they love the school and since their child went to the school.”

Parents looking to enroll their children into the private Christian school had the opportunity to see what the campus had to offer and to see if the school was a good fit for their child during the open house.

“There is a very strong sense of community in the school. All the parents know each other and all the students know each other,” Brisendine said. “There is also a strong opportunity for the children to get personal attention in the classroom. The largest student to teacher ratio is 17 to 1.”

The school’s older students put

together a cause and effect science project for display.

“The students in the seventh and

eighth grade had science projects such as the effect of smoking on the lungs or the children had to

invent something,” Brisendine said. “One grade level had national reports so they take a nation and study it for a year and do a large binder report on that nation.”

Fourth graders at the school did a state report on any state they wanted to learn about.

“The students have California history for fourth grade,” Brisendine said. “They were also able to choose another state to study all year to do a report on.”

Students are also taught how to publicly speak to people of all ages.

“The kids were able to stand by their project and explain it in clear and friendly terms,” she said.

“They were able to talk to little kids and adults.”

Although it was cold and cloudy during the school’s open house, Brisendine said the event was a successful one.

“Everyone had a wonderful time even with the cold weather,” she said. “There was a very large turnout… much more than I expected.”

Paul Bandong Staff Writer Linfield Christian’s Connor Waite has just signed his letter of intent to play football for Linfield College in Oregon. The Wildcat program has had 58 consecutive winning seasons, leading all other colleges or universities in the nation. Linfield competes in the NCAA Division III Northwest Conference.

“Connor Waite is a young man who knows how to win over adversity,” said Linfield Christian varsity football coach Dechon Burns. Waite entered his senior year as the starting quarterback for the Linfield Lions and broke his wrist – on his passing arm – in the first home game of the season. He underwent surgery to insert multiple pins to repair the fracture, normally a season-ending injury. Waite returned to play just five weeks after surgery and helped

lead his team to an Ambassador League championship. Waite passed for over 1,000 yards and eight touchdowns in his short season.

Waite was a Football University 2014 Top Gun selection and an FBU i350 Watch List athlete. He had also made a recruiting visit to the University of Nebraska with a walk-on opportunity to play for first-year head coach Mike Riley.

“I’m excited about this opportunity,” Waite said. “I know that to succeed on and off the field, it will take hard work, but that focus will pay off big dividends in my life.”

Waite is one of four Linfield Lions that are going on to play football at the next level. Austin Lee will play at Occidental College; Jacob Miller will be at Pacific University in Oregon; and Gabe Westall will play for Division 2 Azusa Pacific University.

Murrell drives in Firefighters Destruction Derby Joe Naiman Writer Jake Murrell has lived in Temecula for the last four years, but works as a firefighter/paramedic for the Barona Fire Department. On June 6, he drove in the Firefighters Destruction Derby which was part of the San Diego County Fair and exited in fifth place.

“It’s pretty awesome to drive, but it’s over so quick and the build is so long,” Murrell said.

In 1995 the Cajon Speedway, the Burn Institute and local fire departments collaborated for an annual night which included fundraising and promotions for the Burn Institute, a pre-race parade of fire trucks, an American flag raised from a fire engine ladder for the Star-Spangled Banner, and a Firefighters Destruction Derby. The Burn Institute and local firefighters also collaborated for an annual exposition and burn run at Qualcomm Stadium.

Cajon Speedway closed after the 2004 season, but in 2010 the Fire and Safety Exposition was moved to the San Diego County Fair. James Floros, who was the Burn Institute director at the time, contacted current Barona Fire Department division chief Bob Pfohl, who was Santee’s fire chief when he won the 2000 Firefighters Destruction Derby and was a Viejas Fire Department division chief in 2010, about the possibility of a firefighters demolition derby at the fair.

Pfohl agreed to organize the event.

Some changes due to the configuration of the Del Mar Arena were necessary. The parade of fire trucks takes place earlier in the day, the flag is not raised from a ladder inside the covered arena, and the cars are divided into heats. The current format involves three early afternoon heats with the last two running cars in each heat advancing to the final, and a pair of last chance heats in the late afternoon allow the

last remaining car in each of those two smashups entry into the final crunchfest which begins after the cleanup activity from the second last chance heat.

Murrell, who has been with the Barona Fire Department for eight years, heads the Barona department’s boot drive in which firefighters hold out boots for donations to the Burn Institute.

“I really enjoy doing this stuff,” he said.

The time spent building a demolition derby car is augmented by the time seeking sponsorships and other donations. Barona raised $3,925 for the Burn Institute, which was the second-highest figure this year. Murrell obtained sponsorships from RPL Electric in San Diego and from the Lake Elsinore Moose Lodge.

“Put a lot of time into sponsorship. That’s probably what delays our build so much,” he said.

Murrell drove a 1973 Ford LTD station wagon in this year’s demolition derby. “Doesn’t look like a wagon any more, but it is,” he said after the final.

The conversion of the LTD into a derby car took a couple of months. The station wagon was obtained in Campo and had no motor or transmission. Murrell made his Firefighters Destruction Derby driving debut in 2014 with a 1977 Cadillac Coupe de Ville; although the car was no longer usable after last year’s event he put the motor into the LTD for use this year. Murrell also finished fifth in the 2014 destruction derby.

Murrell also worked on a Firefighters Destruction Derby car in 2013 but did not drive. This year Murrell and Pfohl both drove Barona Fire Department cars.

“Bob was the one who got me into it,” Murrell said. “I’ve been into cars all my life.”

Murrell grew up in the Clairemont area of San Diego and lived in

Vista before moving to Temecula.

He attended the fire academy and paramedic school at Crafton Hills College in Yucaipa and began his firefighting career as a paid parttime firefighter with the Big Bear City Fire Department. Murrell then worked for American Medical Response and heard about the Barona opportunity, which is his first full-time firefighting position, while with AMR. Murrell was in the third heat along with Heartland firefighter Steve Cameron, Coronado driver Royce Copeman, Imperial Beach firefighter C.J. Marin, Viejas contestant Brandon Massey, Lakeside’s Patrick Sellers, and Camp Pendleton’s Ryan Rushing, who grew up in Temecula and now commutes to the Marine Corps base from Menifee. Murrell and Massey advanced from the heat; Sellers would also be one of nine drivers in the final and eventually became the 2015 champion.

Murrell and his crew worked on repairs between the heat and the final. “It got fixed a little bit,” Murrell said.

The LTD outlasted four of the cars in the final. “It ran just fine until it died,” Murrell said.

Not everything went perfectly for Murrell and his car. “This car had no brakes. Zero,” he said.

The back of the station wagon was also becoming crumpled from Murrell’s hits on other cars. Although the LTD was operable, it had trouble moving when it became locked with the 1995 Mercury Grand Marquis driven by National City firefighter Jay Stiles. Murrell’s car also suspended movement when becoming stuck on the berm. “I got hung up on the wall and I couldn’t go anywhere,” he said.

A fire under the hood of Pfohl’s 1968 Plymouth Fury caused a red flag stoppage, and after the restart Murrell broke the flag on his car to signal his inability to continue.

“I couldn’t even put it in reverse anymore,” he said.

“I just got taken out,” Murrell said. “I couldn’t run anymore because of my electrical and my gears.”

The electrical problems were apparently worse than a disconnected wire. “I can’t even start it anymore,” Murrell said.

The LTD will not be driven in a future demolition derby. “The car’s done. I plan on trying to sell the motor,” Murrell said.

Murrell plans to drive in the 2016 Firefighters Destruction Derby if his wife gives him permission.

“That’s a lot of time to build these cars,” he said.

Tiffany Murrell indicated that she will allow her husband to drive next year. The Murrells have three children who are 4, 2, and 11 months.

“I build these cars for my kids and my wife,” Murrell said. “My kids love these cars.”

Hot USAC/CRA Points Race comes back to Perris Auto Speedway Saturday PERRIS—When the Amsoil USAC/CRA Sprint Car Series returns to Perris Auto Speedway, “The Southern California Home of Major League Sprint Car Racing”, this Saturday night June 13, it is bringing something that has been missing for the past few seasons. A very tight point’s race.

Heading into Saturday’s event, the top six are separated by less than 100-points.

Over the past seven seasons, fivetime series champion Mike Spencer of Temecula and Concord’s Damion Gardner have won all of the championships. Moreover they have usually done so in convincing style. However, the series, now in its 12th season, is seeing a tight battle as it returns to the famous Riverside County half-mile clay oval for the fifth time in 2015. Despite not winning a main event yet this year,

Spencer, a 33-year-old Cal Poly Pomona engineering graduate, holds a 25-point lead over Yorba Linda’s Matt Mitchell in the championship standings. Like Spencer, runner up Mitchell has not yet visited victory circle. Consistent finishes have put both of them in the top two spots.

Gardner, who is third in the standings and who has two wins, trails leader Spencer by 39-points.

Visalia’s Richard Vander Weerd leads the series with four wins, but is fourth in points and trails Spencer by 61-markers. Yorba Linda’s Austin Williams, who has yet to win but who has five top five finishes in the first seven races, is fifth in the standings and is just 10-points behind Vander Weerd.

“The racing with USAC/CRA has been phenomenal this season,” promoter Don Kazarian said. “Not only for the lead, but throughout

the pack. It has all been top shelf stuff. In addition to the great racing, there is a super point’s battle going on and that is a bonus for the fans.

They are really into it and pulling for their favorites. With the top drivers being separated by so few points, one slip up by a driver can turn the whole thing upside down.”

Just out of the top five, but only by 23-points, is Anaheim’s Jake Swanson. The 22-year-old Cal State Northridge marketing student is in his second year in the Moose Racing #92 out of Huntington Beach. In four outings at The PAS this year, Swanson has been fast qualifier three times and has recorded the fastest qualifying lap of the year with a time of 16.354 on May 23. Those three fast times at the PAS have come in the last three races in a row and in the last two, he has had season best fifth

place finishes.

“The makeup of the top 10 in points bodes very well for the future of this series,” Kazarian said.

“Of the top ten, only two of the drivers (Spencer and Gardner) are over 30-years-old. Only two others (Mitchell and Cody Williams) are over 25. These guys are going to be superstars and racing against each other for years to come. It is a very exciting time for sprint car racing in Southern California and it is going to stay that way for a lot of years.

The talent pool is very deep.”

In addition to the stars from the USAC/CRA Series, the PAS Senior & Young Gun Sprint Car drivers

will also be in action on Saturday. The Senior series is for drivers age 45 and older and the Young Guns is for drivers age 14-21.

Saturday’s show will feature qualifying, heat races and main events for the USAC/CRA Sprint Cars and heats and main events for the Seniors and Young Guns.

Spectator gates will open at 5:00 PM with the first exciting race at 7:00.

Camping is available for $25.00 per night for all PAS events. The campground opens at noon the day before each event. Tailgating in the spectator parking lot will begin at 1 p.m. for all PAS events as well.

EMWD from page B-8

EMWD’s Board of Directors will receive monthly reports on water use reductions and revenue during Board meetings.

“We would like to encourage all of our customers to take advantage of the many programs we offer to help them become more water efficient,” Record said. “While we hope to see some relief from the drought this year, we must understand that appropriate landscaping is the key to long-term water sustainability for our region.”

EMWD is the freshwater, wastewater service and recycled water provider to a 542-square mile area from Moreno Valley southward along the I-215 corridor to Temecula and eastward to Hemet and San Jacinto. Approximately 785,000 people live and work in this area.

In addition to its own water customers, EMWD supplements water to six local water agencies and municipalities that have their own water departments. EMWD operates four water reclamation facilities and treats some 46 million gallons of wastewater daily.

More information can be found at EMWD’s website www.emwd.org.

base reduction figures solely on per-capita figures without accounting for the primary drivers that dictate regional water use or accounting for previous conservation measures.

More than half of all potable water use in EMWD’s 542-square mile service area is used for outdoor irrigation. Customers are being asked to reduce outdoor irrigation by 50 percent, as that is where the greatest conservation gains will take place.

To assist customers in becoming more efficient, EMWD is encouraging all customers to take advantage of the regional turf buyback program offered in partnership with The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California where customer can earn two dollars per square foot of turf removed.

Should EMWD see an increase in revenue from increased commodity charges associated with Tier 4 usage, those funds would be used to augment conservation programs to assist customers in becoming more efficient with their water usage.
