New fitness trail moves Lake Elsinore along the path of health and fitness Kim Harris VALLEYEDITOR@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Lake Elsinore residents have a new weapon in their battle against the bulge.

The Lake Elsinore Fitness Trail, a first for the city, features one-fifth of a mile of stations designed to help users get fit as part of the city’s Healthy LE initiative. It is conveniently located in Serenity Park so parents can hit the trail while children take advantage of the skate and BMX parks adjacent to it.

Serenity Park is located at 19685 Palomar Street in Lake Elsinore, making it easy for residents of Wildomar and Canyon Lake to use the trail as well.

“I’m really proud to welcome you here to the opening of our fitness trail,” Jonathan Skinner, director of community services, said during the Oct. 17 ribboncutting ceremony. “Looking at the

Wildomar mayor talks about the city’s past, future during ‘State of the City’ event Alex Groves AGROVES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Councilmembers wore cowboy hats, barbecue was served and chairs inside Wildomar city council chambers were painted white with black spots like cowhides for an event that looked at where Wildomar was going, and also where the city had been.

Wildomar Mayor Tim Walker delivered the ninth “State of the City” address, titled “The Past Makes Our Future,” before a crowd of several dozen people. He talked about the city’s history, before embarking on a discussion that covered everything from housing developments to widely anticipated commercial

and road projects.

A past dating back to the 1800s Walker first talked about Wildomar’s founding as a community in the late 1800s. He noted that the name Wildomar came by combining the names of three founders, “Wil” from William Collier, “Do” from Donald Graham and “Mar” for Graham’s wife, Margaret Collier Graham.

By the late 1800s, Walker said, the community had much to offer residents including a hotel, horse stables, a blacksmith shop, stores, a lumber yard and a park, but not much happened for the early part of

Edna Young of Temecula celebrates 100

Edna Young

Edna Young of Temecula celebrated her 100th birthday, Thursday, Oct.19. She was born in Conway, Michigan, as the seventh of 10 children to Cora (Volles) and Andrew Estes. While her parents and most of her siblings have died, she and her younger sister, Phyllis Whiting, 97, are still living.

At the age of 17, in 1935, Edna had had enough of the cold weather in Michigan, so she decided to hitchhike to California where she met and married William Young in 1941. Together she and William

adopted three children, Penny, Michael and Jackie.

“Six months before Pearl Harbor they were working in Hawaii, but had to leave because dad had gotten sick,” daughter Penny said.

Edna and William were selfemployed entrepreneurs and worked together operating a window cleaning business, prepared homes for sale in the community and went on to create decorative pillows and hassocks which they sold to major brands including Broadway and J.C. Penny. She also worked at Costco in Tem-

ecula, later in life.

From 1977 to 1982 Edna and her then retired husband moved to Las Vegas where they built their home and Edna went on to work as a change girl at the Aladdin Casino from the time she was 60 years old until she retired at age 65. Together they returned to Desert Hot Springs then Hemet, as retirees.

“They always made a home and a safe place for us,” Penny said.

“She has never said give up, she pushed forward through the hardships, she is a very strong lady.”

The couple eventually moved to Temecula to live with Penny. Sadly, William died in 1994.

Edna remained active bowling twice a week at Brunswick Zone Cal-Oaks Bowl until she was 98 and one-half years old.

In celebration of turning 100 years old Edna will be surrounded by family and friends, including her bowling teammates Sunday, Oct. 22, in her home in Temecula that she still shares with daughter Penny.

Condition of Murrieta boy at center of abuse case is improving, police spokesman says

People gather in support at the home of 5-year-old Feno Whitten, the Murrieta boy who was found comatose after his father’s girlfriend called 911 to say he wasn’t breathing. A police spokesman said Friday, Oct. 20, that the boy’s condition is improving.

Alex Groves AGROVES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

A 5-year-old Murrieta boy who authorities believe was tortured by his father and his father’s girlfriend to the point of being comatose is starting to show some signs of improvement after months of medical care, a Murrieta Police Department spokesman said.

“His condition has improved,” Lt. Ron Driscoll said. “He’s no longer in the grave condition that he once was in, and he’s making some definite medical improvements.”

Driscoll couldn’t comment beyond that. He said the case had been turned over completely to the Riverside County District Attorney’s Office a couple weeks ago,

limiting what police officials can divulge at this point.

The boy’s father, Benjamin Matthew Whitten, and the father’s girlfriend, Jeryn Christine Johnson, were each charged in August with one felony count of torture and another felony count of child endangerment. Both are expected to make a court appearance on Dec. 1.

A search warrant declaration, authored by Detective John Therein of the department, discusses some of the conditions that police discovered after receiving a 911 call from Johnson on the morning of Aug. 15. Johnson had called to say that the boy was not breathing and that she had moved him from his bed to the couch.

An arriving police officer could

immediately see that the boy looked malnourished, according to the document.

When police went to the boy’s bedroom, it appeared that he had been sleeping on a piece of wood instead of a mattress, there was a lock on the outside of the door to keep him inside and there were cords near the bed that may have been used to tie him down, the declaration said.

One doctor at Inland Valley Medical Center in Wildomar believed the boy may have been suffering from starvation. Another doctor at Rady Children’s Hospital in San Diego determined he had injuries to his head, his abdomen, his spinal cord and abrasions to his neck.

Whitten and Johnson were arrested later that day. Authorities also seized 11 dogs, four cats and two fish from the home.

The community has since rallied around the boy, both online and in person.

A Facebook group, “Justice for FENO” has amassed more than 8,000 members.

Friends and neighbors gathered together in August, hanging blue ribbons in the neighborhood and writing notes for the boy.

A few days later, a group of people showed up at the Southwest Justice Center wearing white Tshirts with blue hearts to support the boy when Whitten and Johnson made their first court appearance.

Neither Johnson nor Whitten have any misdemeanor or felony convictions in the county.

State Water Board adopts environmental standards for cannabis cultivation SACRAMENTO – The State Water Board announced it has adopted a new statewide policy establishing strict environmental standards for cannabis cultivation in order to protect water flows and water quality in California’s rivers and streams.

Commercial cannabis cultivation is expected to grow significantly and spread to new areas of the state following adult use legalization. If left unregulated, cannabis cultivation could pose serious threats to water quality and fish and wildlife by diverting water or releasing fertilizers, pesticides and sediments into waterways.

“We are establishing the environmental protection rules of the road needed to deal with the expected expansion of cannabis cultivation statewide,” State Water Board Chair Felicia Marcus said.

“Today’s action creates a strict set of rules cannabis cultivators will need to follow in order to protect water quality and quantity. We will work closely with other state agencies to make sure cultivators are aware of these rules and are following them.”

The new cannabis cultivation policy establishes statewide requirements that will be implemented through a water quality permit, known as the cannabis general order, and as conditions for cannabis-related water rights, referred to as cannabis small irrigation use registrations. The policy protects California’s waters from cannabis-related waste discharges, establishes protections for riparian areas and wetlands and protects stream flows.

The policy was adopted following a public review process that included three workshops earlier in 2017 to solicit comments and feedback. The draft policy was released in early July, building on existing regulations developed by the North Coast and Central Valley regional water quality control boards. The new statewide policy replaces those regional regulations.

The policy was also developed in consultation with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and the California Department of Food and Agriculture and will be incorporated into all commercial cannabis licenses issued by CDFA under

its CalCannabis Cultivation Licensing Program. The policy takes effect upon approval by the Office of Administrative Law, expected sometime late in 2017.

The State Water Board will continue its enforcement efforts, closely monitoring compliance with the new statewide policy and taking appropriate enforcement action when needed.

The policy applies to cannabis cultivation and is specifically designed to address Proposition 215, the Compassionate Use Act, which established the medical cannabis industry, and Proposition 64, the Adult Use of Marijuana Act, which legalized recreational cannabis cultivation and possession and use of limited amounts of cannabis by adults over 21 years of age.

The policy does not apply to personal cultivation for recreational use.

Cannabis dispensaries still prohibited in San Jacinto Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Although the San Jacinto City Council has voted to permit 16 marijuana growers to begin operations in the city, it upheld its current ordinances to prohibit marijuana dispensaries from opening and dismissed a request to allow cannabis testing laboratories in the city at the Oct. 17 city council meeting.

The request to open cannabis dispensaries and testing labs came to city by the growers and was presented to City Manager Rob Johnson and staff. Mayor Scott Miller asked Johnson to provide staff’s opinion and to bring it back to the council at its next meeting. Johnson did so at the council meeting Tuesday for additional direction. Before discussions began, City Councilman Andrew Kotyuk, who has voted in favor of cannabis cultivation in the city, dismissed himself from the discussion due to other obligations.

Mayor Scott Miller called for public comment on the latest cannabis related issues and found more than 20 people seeking to voice their opinions. While several residents and growers urged the council to amend the prohibition on dispensaries, citing their medicinal needs, the majority of speakers, some speaking only in Spanish with an interpreter, were against the request.

First to appear was Therese Steadman, owner of Curry Copy Center in Hemet, who outlined problems their business has had with an illegal dispensary in their shopping center.

“It is not safe and shouldn’t be considered,” Steadman said.

Christopher Henry from the Southern California Cannabis Chamber of Commerce appeared, speaking in favor of opening dispensaries in the city. He said there were two storefronts operating in

the city with no tax revenue generated and no regulations enforced.

“The goal of the council should be to implement responsible regulations…legal dispensaries are the way to go,” Henry said.

He said that a study showed that 35 percent of all Californians had smoked or used marijuana in the past 30 days. This statement brought a murmur from the large crowd attending.

Michelle Ellen, a cancer survivor, said the cannabis plant should be seen as a “medical marvel,” and dispensaries should be allowed.

Chuck Steadman, a former Hemet police sergeant, said he had seen many motorists who had been cited or involved in serious traffic accidents for driving “buzzed” on marijuana and other drugs.

“They are a danger to the residents of the community,” Chuck Steadman said. Citing his belief that marijuana is a “gateway drug,” he urged “opposition to the legalization of cannabis in your fine city.”

After the public comment session, Councilman Russ Utz urged the city to lift ordinances prohibiting the cannabis dispensaries.

“I would like to see us move forward on this,” Utz said. He said legal dispensaries, if approved, would most likely make the illegal ones in the community and related crimes disappear. The regulations would bring enough tax money to continue the programs that educate children the dangers of drug use.

He voted to delete the cannabis prohibition ordinance and work on a new one legalizing them.

Mayor Miller said he did not understand the connection that “legalizing it (cannabis) lowers our crime. I just don’t understand the connection with that. I don’t understand how regulation lowers crime.” He noted that only lawabiding citizens obey the law.

He said that cannabis may have

its place in society, but the federal government “needs to get their act together to figure out how to use cannabis just like you use other drugs, so you go to the pharmacy, so you don’t go to the local dude.” He voted to uphold the current cannabis dispensary prohibition in the city.

Mayor Pro Tem Alonzo Ledezma said he felt badly that the city approved the 16 cannabis cultivation permits, although he voted to allow the first permits. He said he learned about the cultivation of cannabis from the growers and its value, but he was afraid the city had “opened its gates” to more and more growers.

“I asked the council to stop this thing right now, whether to just one, two or three or whatever the combination is going to be, so the city can move on,” Ledezma said. He voted to keep the current prohibition on dispensaries in place.

Councilwoman Crystal Ruiz said she was “a little irritated” with the evening because “one of the councilman led us down this path” and had chosen not to stay for the discussion on dispensaries and testing facilities.

She said her studies showed that Colorado and other states that had approved the use and sale of marijuana have not made the revenue expected from the growers and dispensaries and how the crime rate is still going up. She chose to affirm the city’s cannabis dispensaries prohibition and end any more council action on the issue.

The discussion on whether or not to allow cannabis testing facilities in the city brought similar comments, but a motion for approval was tabled due to a 2-2 vote of the council. Utz and Ruiz wanted the city staff to create an ordinance to allow cannabis testing facilities, while Mayor Miller and Ledezma were against the request. The motion died as a result.

Dr. Oliver M. Wozencraft attempts the Temecula ‘Treaty of Friendship’ Bonnie Martland SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

Dr. Oliver M. Wozencraft was born in Ohio in 1812 and earned a medical degree and by the 1840s, he set up his medical practice in New Orleans. Looking to improve his health after contracting cholera, he moved to Texas, and in 1849, he moved to California. Four months later he would be selected from the San Joaquin district as a member of California’s first constitutional convention.

The problems between the native peoples and the newly arrived white population warranted government intervention by 1850. In September 1850, Congress passed an act, authorizing an appropriation of $50,000 for President Millard Fillmore to use in making treaties with the Indians. Wozencraft was one of three men selected as commissioners to act on the president’s behalf. The commissioners met in Panama before continuing by ship to California. Once in California, they met with Gov. John McDougal and were not impressed. Hostile to the idea of a reservation system, the governor was raising troops to fight the Indians.

Wozencraft and his fellow commissioners issued a statement, asking he hold off until the situation could be assessed. An article in the Alta California newspaper said there were only two alternatives, “extermination or domestication.”

The commissioners argued for the latter. The citizens, however, wanted the former or in lieu of that, removal of all Indians from California. Opposition came primarily from mining factions continually pushing into Indian homelands and meeting resistance.

To complicate matters, the commissioners were woefully short of funds and had received no real instructions from Washington other than to make treaties to protect Indian rights, provide for their needs and set up reservations. Were they to recognize Indian land rights, set up military posts, authorize persons to manage and supply the reservations? No answers were forthcoming.

The commissioners began with tribes in mining areas, first working as a team before they divided the state and each commissioner took a section. As they worked to subdue the Indians and draw-up reservations, they were continually met with resistance from citizens and lawmakers alike.

One commissioner argued that it would be “cheaper to feed the whole flock for a year than to fight them for a week.”

Wozencraft said he felt quite strongly the Indians were getting a raw deal, were being very badly treated by the white settlers and had

been patient up to this time while suffering much abuse.

Wozencraft was assigned to the southern district which included the Temecula area. Hearing about an Indian uprising near San Diego, he went there with an escort. More troops joined the party, and the Indians were defeated. He returned “over the mountains” to Temecula and, using runners, called in the leaders of all the surrounding tribes.

Most complied, but a tribe from the San Gorgonio Pass did not. After further word was sent, the tribe’s leaders arrived.

The “Treaty of Friendship” signed at Temecula was one of 18 treaties the commission made with California Indians. Sent to Washington, the treaties were all unanimously defeated. California legislators asked their representatives in Washington to push for this result. The Senate not only rejected the treaties but ordered them held in secrecy for 50 years. The tribes were never notified and did not find out the result until 50 years hence.

Before his death in 1905, Wozencraft spent many years lobbying for a canal from the Colorado River to California’s desert areas; still decrying the plight of California Indians and the unfairness with which he felt them treated.

The Temecula Valley Historical Society meets 6 p.m. the fourth Monday of the month in the Little Temecula History Center at the corner of Wolf Store Road and Redhawk Parkway. Admission is free. A meet-and-greet session begins 5:30 p.m. with refreshments. Dale Garcia will present a talk on “Temecula Disasters” Monday, Sept. 25, using descriptions and photographs, showing natural disasters and man-made calamities that have contributed to the character of the town.

New appeal to block the Mid-county Parkway project filed Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The long-sought, Mid-county Parkway that one day will hopefully connect Perris with San Jacinto recently gained its Environmental Impact Report approval by the Riverside County Transportation Commission but is running into legal problems that may delay the project further.

The 16-mile Mid-county Parkway project has been in the planning stages since 2015 and is designed to relieve traffic congestion for east-west travel in western Riverside County between the San Jacinto and Perris areas through 2040. RCTC reported it “will provide logical connections with north-south corridors including

PREPAREDNESS from page A-1 how they work.

Robert Cardenas, risk manager for the city, said the event was designed to get all members of the community, talking about issues of emergency preparedness, but organizers especially wanted to get business owners thinking about what they could do to help in an emergency situation.

Cardenas used an example of city employees needing to reach out to a business for supplies during an emergency.

“What if their employees were in another city, and they were cut off because of a freeway incident or freeway closures?” Cardenas asked. “We want to make sure we’re working with our businesses to make sure they have contingency plans, in place, so they can be up and running in the case of an emergency.”

The safety event also coincided with the Great California Shakeout, which provided an opportunity to remind those who attended about earthquake safety, Cardenas said.

Shortly before noon, many people walked from inside City Hall to a grassy area outside as part of an organized earthquake drill. After the drill, a brief lunch was served.

Drive for a Cause

state Route 79 and Interstate 215.

It will also serve multimodal bus and rail facilities planned as a part of the Perris Valley Line, Metrolink service that connects Perris to Riverside.”

The proposed route will see motorist taking the exit from the 215 freeway at Placentia Street, going east to intersect with the Ramona Expressway, then driving northeast past Bernasconi Road by Lake Perris, crossing over the San Jacinto River and turning east again to Sanderson Avenue, which is state Route 79 in San Jacinto.

Voicing opposition to the $1.7 billion six-lane highway project are conservation groups including the Sierra Club, Center for Biological Diversity, San Bernardino Valley Audubon Society and Friends of

the Northern San Jacinto Valley.

They have posed legal challenges in both superior and federal courts claiming the project will create urban sprawl, increase traffic and disrupt the habitat of protected and endangered birds, animals and plants north and east of the Ramona Expressway. A number of residents and businesses would also be displaced in the project and are challenging the project plans.

The Center for Biological Diversity filed Case No. RIC 1505449 to challenge and block the RCTC project in May 2015; it was reviewed by the courts, and Riverside County Superior Court Judge Sharon Waters handed down her findings June 30, 2017, dismissing the case. She found the plaintiffs “failed to prove that the project’s

Shortly after, a group of city officials gathered for a panel to talk about emergencies that had happened in their own cities and what their takeaways from those incidents were.

The group included Temecula City Manager Aaron Adams, Murrieta City Manager Kim Summers, San Jacinto City Manager Rob Johnson, Lake Elsinore Public Works Superintendent Rick De Santiago, Wildomar City Manager Gary Nordquist, Canyon Lake City Manager Aaron Palmer and Riverside County Emergency Management Department Director Kim Saruwatari.

Adams shared his experience with the fires that broke out in the Temecula area in 2016, one of which prompted the closure of multiple lanes on Interstate 15 during the weekend, causing traffic jams and forcing drivers to clog up nearby surface streets.

The city manager said one of the most important things was providing information such as alternative routes and details of what was happening with the fire on social media and the city’s website. He said he had a city public information officer admitted to the incident command center to relay updates about firefighting efforts.

“We did our best to sort of push

this information out through our community,” Adams said.

Adams said that there were a couple of valuable things that he took away from the incident, one was the importance of relationships and another was establishing who to call and work with in times of emergency.

“We felt like we needed to take the lead on understanding who’s who in the zoo, I like to say,” he said. “We have posted at least two annual public information officer conferences here where we invite all districts, all cities, county… Everyone that we could potentially work with or need to work with, we invite them, we exchange numbers; we update our databases.”

The group discussed the immigration-related protests in Murrieta.

Summers talked about an incident in 2014 in which a plane with migrant women and children that had been flown from Texas and was scheduled to drop off those individuals to a border patrol facility within Murrieta city limits.

That facility became the backdrop for a large-scale protest.

“Our council wanted to take a stance and say that they did not feel that was an appropriate place to be housing women and children,” Summers said. “It started out as a rather innocent press conference where they were simply stating that, and one line, one piece of video, was taken from our mayor making a statement …

Taken out context, it rapidly went all around the world.”

“Everyone was doing a little bit of their part, but no one was talking, and we certainly weren’t in the same room and we weren’t coordinating at all,” she said, adding that city staff didn’t realize until after the fact that they needed some help.

She said in retrospect, the city could have gained a lot from increasing internal communication or activating its Emergency Operation Center and dealing with the situation that way.

“We’re stepping up our activities for our EOC,” she said. “We realize how important it is.”

Nordquist talked about a time on New Year’s Eve 2014 that Wildomar experienced about 10 inches of snowfall.

He said he found it personally challenging because he had grown up at the beach and had never been in a situation where he needed to deal with snow.

It was challenging for drivers in the area as well.

The I-15 was shut down from California Oaks Road in Murrieta to about Main Street in Lake Elsinore, so drivers were taking Wildomar’s surface streets, but certain vehicles – especially big trucks – were slipping, sliding and jackknifing as a result, Nordquist said.

There were also a lot of trees down. Nordquist estimates about 60 trees in total fell.

“I couldn’t believe the amount of trees that were down with the weight of the snow,” he said.

Nordquist said it’s hard to prepare for snow when you don’t regularly deal with it, but noted the city supports efforts to learn how to utilize four-wheel drive, as well as efforts to learn how to drive in inclement weather.

An unexpected fire landed at Lake Elsinore’s doorstep.

De Santiago discussed the 2013 Falls fire which charred more than 1,400 acres near Lake Elsinore and prompted the evacuation of residents in the area.

The fire had started near El Cariso Village, far from Lake Elsinore itself, but the Elsinore Effect – characterized by the sudden change in winds – quickly sent the blaze hurtling the other direction.

environmental impact report was inadequate or flawed, and they also failed to exhaust their administrative remedies for at least one claim,” according to an Aug. 1 news release issued by Best Best & Krieger attorneys for RCTC. The project had been appealed previously by the groups without success, but another appeal has been filed in the 4th District Court of Appeal in Riverside by CBD maintaining their claim that the project will created serious urban sprawl and traffic in a rural area and sanctuary for protected wildlife.

The group maintains there are other avenues the RCTC has to link the communities.

The RCTC in its Mid-county Parkway Project update online, www.midcountyparkway.org, re-

ported, “There are currently legal challenges to the environmental approvals of the project, which are making their way through the courts. In the meantime, the commission is proceeding with the final design for the first construction contract, which consists of the I-215/Placentia Interchange. The commission is currently acquiring right of way for this portion of the MCT only. RCTC continues to move forward with meeting the environmental mitigation requirements and necessary permits for construction.”

The Mid-county Parkway project is in the expenditure plan for Measure A, Riverside County’s half-cent sales tax measure for transportation. It will fund a portion of the project.

Emergency Services Coordinator with the Riverside County Emergency Management Department Jerry Hagan moderates a panel discussion during the Emergency Management Summit held at Temecula City Hall, Oct. 19. The summit’s purpose was to discuss and educate all members of the community about emergency responsiveness and preparedness.

“Sure enough, that fire was knocking on our doorstep,” De Santiago said. “It was already down going into Lakeland Village.”

The incident caused a traffic bottleneck from people trying to make their way out of the area, he said.

“We’ve learned from those mistakes,” De Santiago said. “Never assume that it’s not going to get there, just prepare in advance.

Make sure we get ahead of it before it’s down on our doorstep.”

Johnson talked about the severe flooding the city of San Jacinto experienced in February 1980 after a period of nine full days of rain.

He said about 8,500 residents lived in San Jacinto at that time, of which nearly half were evacuated from their homes.

Johnson said the city does have a planned levy project which will shore up the area and prevent similar flooding from occurring in the future. The city has completed much of the environmental studies for the project, but still needs about $20 million in funding to begin.

He said the city is working on updating its emergency management plan, recently completed a local hazard mitigation plan and is working to form new partnerships with local agencies.

“We call ourselves the 129-year-

old startup city because there’s a lot of things we haven’t done in 129 years that we actually need to do and we’re doing them now,” Johnson said.

An unfamiliar illness affected the county in 2009.

When thousands of people in Mexico started contracting swine flu in 2009, followed by cases in California, the situation was scary because there was little information about the illness.

She said Riverside County’s Public Health Officer had made the decision to close down schools, April 30, 2009, as more was being learned. Not long after, county officials decided that might not be necessary.

“Just a few days after that, the CDC actually reversed the guidance that came out about school closures,” Saruwatari said. “So, we’re closing schools when there were cases identified or suspect cases, and just a few days later, the CDC said, ‘OK, we now know enough about this disease. It’s not as serious as we thought, so we’re not going to close schools anymore,” she said.

Saruwatari said some of the lessons learned from dealing with the swine flu at the county level included being flexible and adapting to plans as they change and being transparent.

Murrieta Rotary honors heroes in upcoming 2017 Field Of Honor MURRIETA – The Murrieta Rotary has selected four heroes for special recognition during the 2017 Field of Honor in Murrieta’s Town Square Park, Nov. 4-11.

These heroes were nominated by friends and acquaintances for their “Service Above Self,” which is a motto of the Rotary Club. The nominees will be honored at the veteran’s lunch Monday, Nov. 6, and again at the Patriots’ Ball Saturday, Nov. 11. Both events are being held at the Field of Honor.

The four heroes being honored this year are nonprofit group All From the Heart, Juan Dominguez, Don “Donnie” Simpson and Howard J. Tait.

Since their founding in 2003, the mission of All From The Heart has been to honor local military families.

Each year, it has hosted the Support Our Troops holiday season event.

Approximately 100 family members who are living with special circumstances are invited each year to celebrate the season with gifts, music, a barbecue and a visit from a Harley Davidson motorcycleriding Santa. Wheels for Warriors is another of the group’s projects, which gifts power wheelchairs and scooters to assist any veteran who needs the freedom to live life more fully. Over 400 power chairs have been presented so far, and another eight chairs will be presented in November. Judy Harter, the founder and president of All From The Heart, is the mother of four children and the longtime partner of a Vietnam veteran. The group’s newest project is called VET, which stands for Veteran Equine Therapy, to assist veterans who suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder and who have not responded well to talk therapy.

Juan Dominguez is Marine corporal who became famous in southwest Riverside County five years ago when he was handed the keys to a smart home, thanks to actor Gary Sinese and the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation. But Dominguez, who lost both legs and his right arm in Afghanistan, didn’t just settle down in the beautifully modified home with his wife, Alexis. Since moving in, he has been busy giving back to help others like himself.

Dominguez is now an ambassador for the Gary Sinese Foundation, the vice president of WarFighter Made – a 2015 Hero nominee – and an increasingly in-demand musician, who taught himself with the help of YouTube to play the drums and the piano after giving up on the guitar. He has performed at Madison Square Garden, Constitution Hall, Walter Reed Hospital and most recently in Nantucket as part of the Holidays for Heroes.

A lifetime Hemet resident, Don “Donnie” Simpson was awarded the Silver Star, the third highest U.S. military honor, for valor this year and 50 years after the brave act in the Vietnam War for which the medal was awarded. As an Army rifleman and radiotelephone operator, Simpson was part of an 18-man reconnaissance team helicopter, dropped into the coastal area known as Bong Son where they came under heavy enemy fire.

With bullets whizzing over his

head and nipping at his uniform, and in a prone position, he was able to radio for help and successfully directed an airstrike on the enemy.

Although four men were killed and eight were wounded, the survivors were able to move to safety after the airstrikes. Drafted into the Army at age 19 in 1966, Simpson served in many combat missions in Vietnam before being honorably discharged in 1968. He has continued to serve veterans in the Hemet community as a member of American Legion Post 53, where he was a member of the Honor Guard and has participated in more than 500 military services at Riverside National Cemetery.

Retired after 23 years of brave service as a Marine infantryman, Master Sgt. Howard J. Tait experienced 11 deployments, four in combat and two unexpected diversions to Sri Lanka and Japan for humanitarian assistance during tsunamis. In 2011, while traveling home, his group of Marines was diverted, and they were among the first responders to help the devastated citizens on Osuna Island after the earthquake and tsunami. He took 65 servicemen onto the island for 10 days of humanitarian assistance.

As they were leaving on a Navy flat-bottomed boat, island residents gathered on the shore stretching a ribbon to the Marines in a symbol of bonds never broken. A year later, he deployed for an 11-month tour in Afghanistan where his group encountered numerous small arms and improvised explosive device attacks.

While finishing up his service in the Wounded Warriors program for severe post-traumatic stress disorder and traumatic brain injury, Tait has competed in the Department of Defense Warrior Games, representing the Marine Corps. Tait and his wife Rachel live in Winchester with their two children, Savannah, 19, and Hunter, 13.

“It has been an honor and privilege serving with my Marines, and now I look to give back to those who gave to me,” Tait said.

The Heroes program in conjunction with the Field of Honor was started in 2015. the following is a

list of the heroes honored from each year since it began.

In 2016, Lt. Col. Saul “Berny” Ashen, a World War II bomber pilot who flew 50 missions over Europe; David F. Barragan, retired US Marines sergeant major, who served in Afghanistan and Iraq; Col. Linda A Cleary, who served 28 years as a flight nurse; Richard Harthun, a World War II B-24 gunner with 33 missions and Ed Hustead, a World War II and Korean War Army veteran were honored as heroes.

In 2015, the group honored Ginger Greaves, the executive director of the Santa Rosa Plateau Nature Education Foundation; Army Staff Sgt. Wallace Fanene, a wounded warrior from Iraq; John Hunneman, a U.S. Navy veteran and longtime journalist and columnist and War Fighter Made, which serves ill, injured and combat-wounded service members and veterans.

The Rotary Club of Murrieta was chartered April 28, 1992, and serves the city of Murrieta and surrounding areas. The club is involved in many local and several international projects in cooperation with Rotary International, which has as its theme “Service Above Self.” For information regarding Rotary membership and more, visit www.murrietarotary. org.

Rotary is a nonprofit organization of professionals and leaders in the local community who volunteer to improve the community and world.

The Murrieta club meets every Monday, except on national holidays, at Richie’s Diner, 40651 Murrieta Hot Springs Road, in Murrieta.

Nam-Yong Horn selected president-elect of California Federation of Republican Women MURRIETA – Nam-Yong Horn was elected president of the California Republican Women’s Federation for 2018-2019 at the recent California state convention in Monterey, California.

Horn is a longtime Republican activist and has been a member of the Temecula Valley Republican Women’s Federation for 25 years.

She has held a number of elected positions within both the state federation and her home club.

“I joined TVRWF right after my husband retired from America’s diplomatic service and we moved to the Temecula area,” Horn said. They currently reside in Menifee.

“I look forward to reaching out to the broad cultural melting pot of California women who care deeply about the future of their state. These are the women who will enrich CFRW and its mission,” she said. “We plan upon actively recruiting new members and will embrace social media and related technology to deliver our message to a broad and diverse audience.”

The newly elected team of CFRW officers is mapping out their agenda for 2018-2019.

“It’s an exciting and challenging time to be a Republican woman in this nation and in California,” Horn said. “Our leadership team plans to reinvigorate this wonderful organiza-

tion, while addressing serious policy issues that transcend state borders.

We invite all California women to join us in this campaign to strengthen and improve our state.”

The California Republican Women’s Federation is the largest group within the National Republican Women’s organization. And, CFRW has hundreds of chapters throughout the state.

“The local clubs meet regularly to educate our members and the broader community. We support Republican candidates and office-holders as well as developing future political leaders,” Horn said. Local clubs are involved with political action and community affairs.

Horn’s home club – Temecula Valley Republican Women’s Federation, www.tvrwf.org – meets every third Tuesday of the month at Wilson Creek Winery in Temecula for a gourmet wine country luncheon and a presentation from a distinguished guest speaker.

“We congratulate and celebrate Nam Yong-Horn for her incredible achievement,” TVRWF President Gloria Karlak said. “She is an asset to any organization, and I’m looking forward to great things happening in CFRW these next two years.”

Temecula dedicates new park in Roripaugh Ranch neighborhood Alex Groves AGROVES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The city of Temecula celebrated the dedication of a new park in the Roripaugh Ranch neighborhood Saturday, Oct. 21, with comments from city members, a ribboncutting ceremony and activities for young children.

The 5.1-acre Skyview Park is located at 31991 Roripaugh Valley Road. The park offers a basketball court, picnic tables, equipment for children to climb on and a large circular area that opens up to a view of fields and hills on the northeastern portion of the city. The park is also covered in a drought-tolerant mixture of native and water-hardy plants rather than grass.

Temecula Mayor Maryann Edwards made some remarks at the beginning of the park dedication Saturday.

“This is a phenomenal park, and different than any park we have,” Edwards said, noting that the view of the surrounding area was exceptional.

The event gave members of the Temecula Community Services District the chance to reflect on their work.

“This is the first park that our commission gets to dedicate in the city, and I’m really excited about the layout of this park, what it represents and what it means for our city,” Temecula Community Services District Chair Zak Schwank said. “You sort of come up here and you can really imagine bringing your lunch up here and just hanging out and relaxing for a while, and soaking in the views.”

Skyview Park is one of about 40 parks in the city so far, but Commissioner Dale Borgeson can remember a time when there was just one – the Ronald Reagan Sports Park on Rancho California Road. That soon changed after the city’s incorporation in 1989, he said.

“There were so many parks really quickly,” Borgeson said. “In five or 10 years, I know it was in

The new Skyview Park in Temecula provides a variety of unique features including water-wise and drought-resistant landscaping.

the double digits for sure. It was a big difference, and it certainly, for the citizens, made us feel like incorporation was the right move at the time.”

Commisisoner Eric Levine said he could already imagine the park being used.

“I think this is now my favorite park,” Levine said. “To look around, to see these spectacular panoramic views, to see and imagine all the families that are getting together, I just know that this is an awesome new re-beginning for

Temecula.”

After the Community Services district members spoke, members of the city including Edwards and Councilmember Jeff Comerchero gathered together for a symbolic ribbon cutting.

Several children were already at the park, climbing and playing on some of the fixtures.

Some of the activities available to them after the ceremony included balloon tying and temporary tattoos.

linear parks, we don’t really have this kind of activity. We are going to be a mainstay for other places.”

Several dozen residents, dignitaries and city officials gathered at the park for the ribbon-cutting ceremony.

Lake Elsinore Mayor Bob Magee said the council “jumped on the property” and turned “nothing into something.”

“Not many of you realize that we are standing on an earthquake fault,” Magee said. “There is a reason there was nothing built here, why no one could ever more forward with anything, because it is an earthquake fault.

“So, if you feel the earth shake, it could just be me running or it could be an earthquake,” he quipped.

Magee said the park, which was built at a cost of $10,000, was the idea of Councilman Brian Tisdale, who started the Healthy LE campaign.

Tisdale said as a Marine, he understands the importance of physical fitness.

“For me, it’s all about the pushups,” Tisdale joked. “As a Marine, I looked at the slope on this trail, and I thought, ‘I know what to do with this.’ We came up with the idea of a fitness trail.”

Tisdale gave all the credit for the new trail to the city’s public works team.

“They laid it out, they carved it out and they played with the stations and modified them,” he said.

“We have a great city staff, and we couldn’t do it without them.”

There are 12 stations on the fitness trail, including a calf stretch, hamstring and quadriceps stretch, bent knee hang, situps, reverse pullups and many others. The trail also features fitness facts, heartbeat checks and a stair climbing station.

The fitness trail is free and open to the public, but residents should bring a water bottle and be ready to break a sweat, as the park features sloping hills and some difficult challenges, all which can be easily modified for those who want a workout but are unable to do some of the tougher stations.

“Enough is enough. We cannot continue to allow legislative staff to risk their careers and their livelihood if they report sexual harassment, or any other type of illegal, unethical behavior,” she said.

AB 403 replicated a measure Melendez introduced in early 2016 – Assembly Bill 1788 -- which also died in the Senate Appropriations Committee.

The “Legislative Employee Whistleblower Protection Act” sought to ensure that members of the Legislature, as well as their agents, face penalties for intimidating or threatening a person who attempts to draw attention to their misdeeds.

The law was intended to provide the same protections afforded employees in state agencies and the courts under the Whistleblower Protection Act of 1999, freeing staffers to file ethics complaints or other official allegations of wrongdoing by lawmakers or underlings without fear of retaliation.

Lara, D-Long Beach.

The bill received near unanimous support in the Assembly.

Melendez began her letter to the women’s caucus with references to the mushrooming scandal swirling around Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein, whose alleged sexual transgressions are under investigation.

Since the allegations against Weinstein came to light, “assemblymembers, senators, legislative staffers and lobbyists have ... felt confident enough to share their stories of sexual harassment while working (in) the Legislature,” Melendez said in her letter. “They have shared allegations of groping, sexual innuendoes and threats and promises about their future careers to keep them silent.”

Melendez appealed to caucus members to join her in coauthoring her next whistleblower protection bill and said lawmakers have “a responsibility to protect the integrity of the institution by creating an atmosphere of transparency and accountability.”

Release: Date: October 17, 2017 12:15 PM

RIVERSIDE – A Riverside County lawmaker asked the California Legislative Women’s Caucus to join her in forming a united front in support of legislation that would establish protections for legislative staffers who report ethics or other breaches, including sexual harassment, by their bosses.

“It is my hope the women of the California Legislature will join me, and we can once and for all grant whistleblower protections to all legislative staff,” Assemblywoman Melissa Melendez, R-Lake Elsinore, said in a letter submitted to the caucus. “This is our chance to not just talk about it, but to do something about it. Together, we can end the culture of corruption and sexual harassment in the state capitol.”

Melendez has written several bills in the last four years seeking to enshrine a Legislative Employee Whistleblower Protection Act into law.

Her most recent effort, Assembly Bill 403, died in June due to inaction by the Senate Committee on Appropriations, chaired by Sen. Ricardo

“Whether you are a beginner just starting to get fit or a seasoned exerciser ready to push yourself to the next level, Serenity Park Fitness Trail has your challenge here,” a press release from the city said.

The city plans to add additional fitness elements and trails to other

local parks in the future as part of its Healthy LE Program because a “healthy society is better for everyone,” according to Tisdale.

“I really want residents of our city to be healthy,” he said. “We are going to keep dreaming extreme, because that’s what we do here.”

Supervisors declare deadlock in talks with deputies, impose contract Paul J. Young SPECIAL TO ANZA VALLEY OUTLOOK

RIVERSIDE – The Riverside County Board of Supervisors voted 4-1 to impose a one-year contract on the union representing Riverside County sheriff’s deputies after nearly 16 months of negotiations failed to produce a collective bargaining agreement that both sides could accept.

“Time is wasting, and we’re still trying to figure out how we’re going to get by over the next couple of years,” board Chairman John Tavaglione said.

The vote impacting the 2,500-member Riverside Sheriffs’ Association will give negotiators from the county and attorneys for the union another opportunity to try to reach a compromise on a new three-year compact, spelling out provisions regarding overtime pay, salary step increases, SWAT standby compensation and other matters.

The previous RSA agreement with the county expired June 30, 2016.

County negotiator Peter Brown told the board that 19 negotiating sessions had resulted in a tentative collective bargaining agreement last winter, but after initially accepting it, RSA members ultimately voted to reject what became the county’s “last, best and final offer.”

“The board was consistent that it wanted savings, and RSA agreed to most proposals, but in the end, an agreement could not be reached,” Brown said.

Sticking points included medical care contributions, parking fees charged to deputies for use of county lots in their personal vehicles, limits on “meet-and-confer” changes to the county-RSA memorandum of understanding after it becomes finalized and whether union shop stewards should be permitted to take up time during on-duty departmental briefings to discuss union business.

“We agreed to stipulations that would provide $17 million in savings,” Douglas Olins, the RSA’s chief negotiator, said. “But it was apparent the county never wanted to reach an agreement. The (county negotiators) were constantly threatening us with a last, best, final offer.”

Olins accused the county of pushing to continually extract more concessions from deputies, which he said would sorely impact morale and hasten the departure of more personnel seeking happier workplaces.

“You’re going to hemorrhage deputies and develop a reputation that you don’t care about law enforcement,” the attorney said.

“That’s what happening now.”

Department of Human Resources chief Mike Stock told the board that some items under discussion with the union were “nonnegotiable,” including the county’s desire to freeze cost-of-living adjustments and automatic pay increases for

the duration of the MOU. Other than that, the county was willing to engage in meaningful negotiations, he said.

The county is seeking roughly $20 million in annual savings from the RSA contract, and according to Stock, the terms of the final offer that the board imposed will net about $10.33 million for what’s left of the 2017-2018 fiscal year.

Issues on which the two sides appeared to be close to agreement, according to mediator Paul Crost, included a change in work schedules to reduce overtime pay; a modification to the “court call back” pay period, which is usually four straight hours of compensation for an off-duty deputy but would be reduced to two hours; an elimination of the requirement for a minimum of 16 deputies to be in ready mode for SWAT deployment, thus drawing pay and the amount of unused sick leave funds that can be cashed out when a deputy parts from county service.

Supervisor Manuel Perez, who cast the sole vote against imposition, aired his concerns about the ability of deputies to meet with their union reps during or immediately after on-duty briefings, even though Undersheriff Bill Di Yorio assured the board that Sheriff Stan Sniff had dropped his objections to the practice.

“In this day and age, everyone utilizes electronic means to communicate, and we were protective of that briefing time because that’s when we tell folks about safety issues and other stuff,” Di Yorio said.

On Tavaglione’s motion, the board nixed the parking fee requirement and added in language regarding higher medical fee contributions under the final contract terms.

According to Supervisor Marion Ashley, imposition may end up being a healthy exercise.

“It’s not like it’s forever,” he said.

“This is a prudent way to go. We have to move ahead.”

Over the past seven years, Walker said, the town has averaged only 500 new residents per year, and at build out, the town will have about 54,000 residents.

“That’s it,” he said. “We got smoked a long time ago by all of our neighbors, but that’s OK. We like ‘em, and we like our hills right here that are kind of messing up the plans.”

Wildomar’s general plan allows for a build out of 12 million square feet of retail space. Walker questioned whether Wildomar would ever have that much retail, but said the opportunities are there and the city is glad for new businesses.

Walker touted many new amenities in the city such as new commercial centers and a list of new businesses that includes Dunkin’ Donuts, Baskin Robbins, Taco Bell, The Yellow Basket and more.

He also talked about projects expected to come to fruition in the coming years, including a Mt. San Jacinto College campus that will be built on land on Clinton Keith Road; a Wal-Mart supercenter on Bundy Canyon Road and road

A tribute to a friend An early part of the event included a tribute to former Planning Commissioner Stan Smith, who died in August.

A longtime Realtor in the area, Smith had been a proponent for the city to incorporate in 2008. He was also known for his in-depth knowledge of the town.

During the “State of the City” event, a video showing Smith told the story of how he came to Wildomar.

He bought his home in Wildomar in the 1970s at his wife’s request to be closer to his job.

“Haven’t regretted it,” Smith

said in the video. “Good friends, I’ve met a lot of good people. It’s just outstanding.”

Walker said Smith and his contributions to the town would be sorely missed.

“The general plan is a living document that is flexible and is updated through amendments as needed,” Walker said. “A plan that provides the guidelines for developing the future of this community and this region. Stan was instrumental in the general plan.

The man knew a lot.”

Walker said Smith’s words have stuck with him.

“He always told me, ‘just stand strong, do what’s right, tell the truth, never go any other way,’” Walker said. “And that’s what I live by because he was my friend.’”

San Jacinto Heritage Festival celebrated at Estudillo Mansion Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

San Jacinto elementary and high schools, the Hemet/San Jacinto Chamber of Commerce, the Soboba Foundation, Rotary and the city of San Jacinto celebrated the historic traditions of San Jacinto at the Heritage Days Festival at the Estudillo Mansion, 150 S. Dillon Ave., in San Jacinto, Saturday, Oct. 21.

Hundreds of San Jacinto and Hemet residents attended the gala event on the manicured tree covered lawns of Estudillo Mansion learning about the history of their community.

Highlighting the event were speeches from San Jacinto Unified School District Superintendent Diane Perez and Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians Tribal Chairman Scott Cozart. The St. Anthony’s Folklorico Dancers performed, while the San Jacinto Rotary joined in a bocce ball tournament. Residents enjoyed tours of the Estudillo Mansion Museum. There were vendors, school booths and other activities throughout the event, concluding with a showing of the movie “Babe, the Gallant Pig,” for the children.

Murrieta council gives grant money to 7 local nonprofits Will Fritz VALLEYSTAFF@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Murrieta City Council voted during its Oct. 17 meeting to allocate grant money to seven nonprofit organizations in the area.

The city had $43,000 to give to local organizations—despite receiving requests totaling $126,000 from 11 separate organizations.

“This is the hardest thing that your council gets to do,” Murrieta Mayor Rick Gibbs said during the meeting. “All those other things you see on the agenda, there’s a great deal of objectivity to those.

This is a little more subjective.”

Further complicating matters, county regulations stipulate that the minimum amount a city can allocate to any organization is $5,000,

said Izzy Murguia, a management analyst for the city, leaving the city with no way to fund every organization that asked for funding.

“There is no right answer here, because no matter what we do, somebody who should have been funded, won’t be funded,” Gibbs said.

The city receives the Community Development Block Grant money from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development via the Riverside County Economic Development Agency.

About $289,000 was given to the city to allocate for 2018-2019, but only 15 percent can be given to community development programs, leaving $43,000 amount for the city to give to local organizations.

The rest of the money went to a

pedestrian safety program, Murguia said.

Federal rules require that funds must go to organizations that benefit individuals with low to moderate incomes, aid in prevention or elimination of blight and meet community development needs with a particular urgency.

The city council identified food pantries, women’s programs, domestic violence prevention programs and children and youth development programs as four further priorities for allocation, given the limitation of funds, Murguia said.

Assistance League of Temecula Valley, Oak Grove Center, Rose Again Foundation and Boys and Girls Club of Southwest Riverside County were all children’s organi-

zations that received funds.

Breast cancer resource center Michelle’s Place, domestic violence prevention organization Safe Alternatives for Everyone and the Community Food Pantry of Murrieta also received funding.

The council voted to give $13,000 to the St. Martha’s Catholic Church-operated community food pantry, and $5,000 to the rest of the organizations—despite an attempt by Councilman Kelly Seyarto to increase funding for the pantry, which received $15,000 last year.

“St. Martha’s, I can’t imagine giving them less than what we’ve given in the past, because they’re only getting busier,” he said.

However, Seyarto acquiescing to other councilmembers’ propos-

als, the council voted 5-0 for their funding plan.

“No matter what decision I make, someone’s not going to like the decision I make,” said councilman Randon Lane. “Unfortunately for tonight, the decision, everybody in the room is not going to like, because you’re either not going to get funded or you’re not going to get enough money for what you’re requesting.”

Seyarto said when he first joined the city council in 1997, the city had about $42,000 of CDBG funds to give out.

“We were a community of 39,000 people,” he said. “Today, we’re triple that size, and we’re still splitting (almost the same amount).”

HS Football: Week Eight action heats up under the Friday night lights

Vista Murrieta QB Robert Coleman (5) leads the Broncos to a 41-10 victory over Chaparral Friday, Oct. 20.

JP Raineri

SPORTS@REEDERMEDIA.COM The goal; make it to the post season. Week Eight in the local high school football world proved to be a week of position for most teams fighting for the chance to play a Week Eleven game. With two weeks remaining in the regular season, the front runners are still powering through their opponents, but have a couple walls still to get through.

In the Southwestern League the Murrieta Valley Nighthawks (6-2, 3-0) are well on their way to repeating as Southwestern League champs, but Vista Murrieta and Murrieta Mesa are close behind.

In fact, the Rams are not only close behind, they lead the league in passing yards (Jeff Miller, 2,042 yards), rushing yards (Kai Thompson, 1,217 yards), receiving yards (Giovanni Sanders, 1,070 yards) and have a chance to share the league title if all goes according to plan during their bout against MV in Week Ten. This past week Murrieta Mesa put that lights out on Great Oak’s homecoming game, beating the Wolfpack for the first time in school history, while the Nighthawks toyed with a struggling Golden Bear team just down the street. Vista Murrieta took to the road and gave the Pumas their third straight league loss, but for now all the teams will look to their Week Nine games and focus on getting one win at a time.

Over in the Sunbelt League it is not getting any easier for the opponents of the top two teams as Paloma Valley and Heritage managed to put over a combined one hundred points on the board against their Week Eight competitors.

Paloma Valley and Elsinore played a tight first half, but the Wildcats blew the doors open in the third quarter with back-to-back TDs and never looked back. Heritage welcomed the struggling Perris Panthers to their house and tried to keep the game somewhat interesting as they gave lots of players play time in this match-up and Temescal Canyon came out victorious against the Lakeside Lancers, putting up 27 points early on, which would be all they would need to walk away with the win. This week could be a lot like last week as everyone prepares for the final week showdown between the two powerhouses of the Sunbelt League.

HS Girls’ Volleyball: Temecula Valley back in control, sweep Vista Murrieta 3-0 JP Raineri SPORTS@REEDERMEDIA.COM

After a well fought three-set sweep of Vista Murrieta Thursday, Oct. 19, Temecula Valley is back on top of the Southwestern League standings again. It’s been almost three weeks since the Lady Golden Bears fell to the Vista Murrieta Lady Broncos and this time they wanted revenge. The current league leading squad had not lost a league game since 2015 and they had a bone to pick with their neighbors to the north.

Despite keeping it somewhat close, Temecula Valley swept Vista Murrieta, 25-15, 25-17, 25-21 and for now share a piece of the Southwestern League championship.

Madison Endsley had 17 kills in the match and did a lot of the damage for the Lady Golden Bears in the first set at the service line producing four aces during a 13-4 run to close the set out. Jasmine West and Carly Shreenan both proved w w w . m y v a l l e y n e w s . c o m

to be forces to reckon with in the second set, but the third set was the most competitive of all as the two teams went back and forth through the first 21 points until Temecula Valley (28-3, 8-1 in league) won the final four points. Vista Murrieta (14-5, 7-2) had three attacking errors and a passing error during the final moments of the match.

“I cannot be more proud of my team right now. What they did was totally out of this league. These girls took this great opportunity and went after it. They looked really mature on the court. Serving tough, chasing balls, being very risky offensively and made good setting decisions. Overall a very collective victory!” said Temecula Valley Head Coach Rafu Rodriquez.

Lexi Hadrych and Tiffany Pedersen-Henry led the Lady Broncos with 12 and 11 kills each. With one game to go in the regular season, the Temecula Valley Lady Golden Bears will look to have the cat in the bag after they finish off with the Chaparral Lady Pumas Tuesday, Oct. 24. Chaparral is now 14-10 overall and 3-6 after beating Murrieta Mesa (11-10, 0-9) in three straight sets Thursday, Oct. 19.

Murrieta Mesa has yet to win a league match this year and hope to erase the goose egg when they face Murrieta Valley (15-12, 3-6) on the road in their final game of

the regular season Tuesday, Oct. 24. Great Oak (14-9, 6-3) remains in third place in the standings after they fell to Murrieta Valley this week and will finish off their season at Vista Murrieta where the battle for second place should be a good one Tuesday, Oct. 24.

Once the final games are played the CIF Southern Section playoff brackets will go live Thursday, Oct. 26, in the afternoon. Article contributions made by Greg Shreenan and Donna Amoy.

The Temecula Valley Auto Mall returned this year to sponsor the second annual Southwestern League Sportsmanship Conference Tuesday, Oct. 18.

Nearly 300 high school athletes from Temecula Valley and Murrieta Valley Unified School Districts gathered to attend the Southwestern Sportsmanship Conference at Murrieta Mesa High School. Schools in attendance at the conference were Chaparral, Great Oak, Murrieta Mesa, Murrieta Valley, Temecula Valley and Vista Murrieta high schools. The event – which focused on sportsmanship, leadership and respect – included guest speakers, lunch and prizes for the student athletes.

Guest speakers included Timo-

thy Ritter, Temecula Valley Unified School District superintendent; Pat Kelly, Murrieta Valley Unified School District superintendent; Marti Reed, development manager for the National Coach Alliance; Robin Davis a D1 College Volleyball Coach and Tom Rudnai, President of Temecula Valley Toyota and a representative for the Temecula Valley Auto Mall.

“After sponsoring the first event last year, we knew we had to come back out again – no question,” said Rudnai. “These are natural leaders. If we can have any part in helping them make a positive influence on their peers, it’s well worth it.”

As part of their role in student leadership, attendees were encouraged to take a pledge promising not to text and drive. The athletes

appeared noticeably moved as they watched a video on the potential repercussions of distracted driving. As part of the pledge, each athlete listed reasons they couldn’t afford to be in an accident this year and the top three submissions were awarded with a GoPro by the Temecula Valley Auto Mall.

Winners included Kaitlyn Leszc-

zynski who wanted to focus on bringing her teammates together, Jasonnia Burleson who hoped to be the first in her family to go to college and Casey Fuller who plans to establish a transportation system for the elderly living in Assisted Living facilities to attend local high school games and events.

ecula Hyundai and Genesis, Temecula Nissan and Temecula Valley Toyota. They have combined their resources as individual dealerships in order to promote and market the Temecula Valley Auto Mall as an all-inclusive destination for auto purchasing, and an active contributor to the local community.

Education

Western Center Academy student receives $100,000 scholarship HEMET – Katelyn Nordal, a senior at Western Center Academy, received a $100,000 scholarship to go toward her tuition at Graceland University in Lamoni, Iowa, where she will be attending next fall and playing for their soccer team.

Nordal has been playing soccer since she was 3 years old. She said that it wasn’t until she was 10 or 11 when she began playing it in a more competitive nature and joined the co-ed club team. She played soccer all year for the travel club and the Hemet High School’s girls’ soccer team. She played right-middle field position for Hemet, but she will play club-forward or left-back at Graceland University.

Nordal said she became interested in Graceland University two

years ago during a college showcase. The showcase allowed high school athletes to run drills with coaches from different colleges and gave them the opportunity to speak with the coaches one-on-one about their future plans. Nordal spoke with Graceland University soccer coach, Ozzie White, for 20 minutes, and she made up her mind about playing soccer for the college. White attended a tournament to see Nordal in action, but unfortunately, she was injured, and he was unable to watch her play.

Despite not being able to play in that game, Nordal was still able to make a difference. The team was losing, but Nordal gathered the team for a pep talk and they ended up winning the game. White said he

was impressed with her leadership skills and team- player attitude, so he recruited her.

Nordal will not be the first Hemet graduate to attend Graceland University. In fact, she said she knows four people from club soccer that are playing for the soccer team. She said she is excited to join another small school like Western Center Academy and that she thrives better in those environments. Although she is excited to pursue her career playing soccer at a collegiate level and continuing her education, she said she is nervous about leaving her friends and family. She said they have continued to support her dreams and she is extremely grateful for all of them.

Katelyn Nordal, senior and student athlete at Western Center Academy, is set to attend Graceland University in Lamoni, Iowa, after receiving a $100,000 scholarship.

The Rotary Club of Lake Elsinore honors Teachers of the Month LAKE ELSINORE – The Lake Elsinore Rotary Club honored three Lake Elsinore Unified School District teachers for their years of commitment and dedication at the Teacher of the Month program. September’s honorees included Phyllis Hofmeister of Earl Warren Elementary, Jessica Davison of Tuscany Hills Elementary and Patricia Brown of Rice Canyon Elementary.

Hofmeister is a second-grade teacher at Earl Warren. At the start of each school year, her emphasis is focused on building community skill and social-emotional learning. Earl Warren has successfully used the Boys Town model for social emotional learning and behavioral support to students.

Davidson is a special day class teacher spanning kindergarten to fifth grade. Her classroom is an example of the district’s multitiered system of student supports to support both students and parents of children with special needs.

Brown serves as a speech and language pathologist for Rice Canyon. She particularly enjoys working with pre-school children.

“We work on developing language and communication skills as early as three,” she said.

“The Teacher of the Month program truly enlightens us to the caring and committed teachers we have right here in the Elsinore Valley,” Rick Morsch, president of the Rotary Club of Lake Elsinore, said.

The Teacher of the Month program is hosted on the third Wednesday of every month during the school year at the Lake Elsinore Rotary Club meeting.

The club meets at 7 a.m. at the Ortega Conference Center, 512 Chaney St., in Lake Elsinore.

The public is welcome to attend the awards or Rotary’s weekly meetings.

Edison International scholarships available to high school seniors ROSEMEAD – High school seniors whose dreams are to make a difference in the world by majoring in science, technology, engineering or math are invited to apply for Edison International’s $1.2 million Edison Scholars program.

Edison International, the parent company of Southern California Edison, is awarding $40,000 scholarships, paid over four years, to 30 high school students planning to major in STEM fields at four-year accredited U.S. colleges and universities. Scholarship applications are being accepted through Dec. 1.

Applicants must live in SCE’s service territory and plan to be a

full-time undergraduate student majoring in one of the following STEM fields: mathematics, engineering, computer and information services, management information systems, natural resources and conservation and physical sciences.

Eligible students must also be high school seniors, have at least a cumulative 3.0 GPA and demonstrate financial need. Students from underserved communities and ethnic minorities are encouraged to apply.

Dependents of Edison International and SCE employees and retirees are not eligible for the Edison Scholars program.

“Our Edison Scholars program

invests in students with big dreams to help pay for their college studies in STEM,” Pedro J. Pizarro, president and CEO of Edison International, said. “They will be leaders at their colleges and universities and in their communities, and we hope that they may someday join our Edison team as future interns and employees.”

To apply and get additional eligibility information, visit www. edisonscholars.com.

Scholarship recipients will be announced spring 2018. They may also be eligible for summer internships at SCE after completing their second year of college.

MVUSD opens new adult Austin Smith transition facility graduates Monica Johansson’s son Luis is MURRIETA – Murrieta Unified School District held an open house entering his last year in the ATP basic training for its new transition facility, Thursday, Sept. 28. The facility is the first of its kind in the region.

The district’s new Adult Transition building is “a dream come true” for students, parents and teachers, according to a press release issued by the district.

In August, the district moved all the Adult Transition Program students from the district’s three high schools to a newly refurbished office building next to the District Support Center. The Adult Transition Program is for district special education students between the ages of 18-22 who have not received a diploma and require such a program per their Individualized Education plans.

The new ATP building provides students with a place to continue working on their social and life skills apart from bells, pep rallies and the busy high school campuses.

The ATP building is designed to be a real-life workplace where young adults have authentic opportunities to practice their independent and employment skills and experience a smoother transition into the community.

program.

“This has everything our kids require,” Johansson said during a recent tour of the facility. “The exercise room is amazing, and everything is beautiful and geared toward the student needs. I think the social aspect is going to be great.

He can be with all the students that are in his age group which will be amazing for him.”

In addition to five large wellequipped classrooms, the building houses a sensory gym, calming sensory spaces, laundry facilities, a sheltered workshop, offices and a professional print shop where students gain work experience producing print jobs for the district’s schools. An inviting cafe in the kitchen area has floor-to-ceiling windows and bistro-style tables and chairs where students can eat lunch.

The kitchen and cafe are equipped with Americans with Disabilities Act-approved large and small appliances for students to learn how to make meals, to practice their table manners and to work on social and other independent living skills.

The university grants a wide range of scholarships to current students each year. Including merit and need-based scholarships, students received over $45 million in financial support from the university for the 2017-2018 academic year.

Big changes are in store for Temecula Target Alex Groves AGROVES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The Temecula planning commission approved renovations, Wednesday, Oct. 18 that will greatly change both the exterior and interior of the Target shopping center in Temecula.

Commissioners voted unanimously for changes to the store at 29676 Rancho California Road that include transitioning a nowdefunct outside garden area into interior shopping space, adding a second entrance and toning down the facade of the building.

The garden center area that will be converted covers about 10,418 square feet. Target will also add an additional 1,090 square feet onto the building. Together the two new areas will be used mostly for additional grocery space, a representative for the store told the commission.

The addition of a second entrance to the store is expected to fix some issues with parking and traffic flow in the store’s parking lot by providing customers with

more than one location from which to enter.

Gone will be the clashing bright reds and earthy greens that decorate the outside of the building currently. Instead, they will be replaced by dark wood paneling and a white Target logo.

The approved changes are similar to changes that are being made at Target stores throughout the country. A number of Target stores have already employed the dark wood paneling and white logo.

“The proposed modification will add visual interest and articulation to the building facade using materials, colors, textures and wall plane changes to make the appearance more current and feel less dated,” a city staff report presented to the commission said.

The new project is expected to be contained to the store itself. It will not require new parking spaces or any landscaping changes, according to the report.

In March, Target announced that it was going to pour billions of dollars into its more than 1,800 stores over the next several years

to give shoppers an elevated experience.

About 110 stores are expected to be remodeled, and 30 smallformat stores are expected to open by the end of the year. About 500 more stores will be renovated between 2018 and 2019, according to a news release from Target’s corporate website.

The city staff report noted that the changes to the exterior of the Target store will blend in nicely with approved changes to other buildings in the Temecula Town Center, which is one of the city’s oldest shopping centers.

The commission in August approved an application to change the exterior of buildings throughout the shopping center so they could be brought up to date.

Some of the approved changes included painting the majority of the stucco to a bright white color, which will be accented with various shades of tans and browns. Awnings in the center will be changed to a medium bronze color.

The Target store at 29676 Rancho California Road is slated for a big makeover after gaining the approval of the Temecula planning commission, Oct. 18.

The foundation provides programs and services to foster children and emancipated foster young adults residing in Temecula and Murrieta.

MENIFEE – The city of Menifee announced that “Dunkin’ Donuts” will be joining the Shops at Newport retail center development, which is currently under construction at Newport and Bradley roads.

Groundbreaking begins Pala Casino expansion project Joe Naiman JNAIMAN@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Pala tribal chair Robert Smith removed an awning from a 14-yearold poolside kiosk with a bulldozer to commence the groundbreaking of Pala Casino’s expansion project, Oct. 17.

The $170 million expansion and renovation will include a new hotel tower, a larger pool area, a larger casino area, three additional levels on the hotel parking structure and an enlarged restaurant promenade.

“This is a proud moment for Pala,” Smith said. “This is a significant milestone for our tribe. We look forward to continuing to exceed expectations of our guests.”

The construction will take place in three phases with the pool area constituting the first phase. The pool deck is currently approximately 10,000 square feet, and when the renovations are completed the pool deck will cover approximately 18,000 square feet. The multi-pool area will also include additional cabanas, and guests will have opportunities to access 12 cabanas when the work is complete. The first phase is expected to be complete by May 2018.

“We have an aggressive construction schedule that begins today,” Pala chief executive officer Bill Bembenek said.

The other two phases will add the 348-room hotel tower on the north side of the existing hotel area, expand the hotel parking structure from four levels to seven, increase the casino area to 102,000 square feet, add a signature bar, remodel the restaurant promenade and refresh the existing casino interior and hotel tower. The completion of the full expansion and renovations is expected in late 2019.

Pala Casino opened April 3, 2001.

“Every minute of every hour of every day since that date this facility has been open to the public,” Bembenek said.

The resort, including the initial hotel tower and the pool, was

In 2011, Pala opened the 10,000-square-foot Infinity nightclub, which had been the Grand Cabaret before it was enclosed and upgraded. Pala’s 2015 project created the Cave restaurant including an underground wine cave, the outdoor patio bar and lounge at Luis Rey’s and a permanent stage for the outdoor Palomar Starlight Theater.

The current expansion project has been in the conceptual planning phases prior for some time.

“It’s going to come to fruition today,” Bembenek said.

In May 2016, a tribal-state gaming compact to allow the expansion of Pala Casino was approved. The compact was ratified by the state Legislature when Assembly Bill 629 passed all committees and both full chambers without an opposing vote. Lorena Gonzalez, who is now Lorena Gonzalez Fletcher, wrote AB 629.

“Pala’s been such a great community partner,” Fletcher said.

Fletcher represents the 80th Assembly District in the southern part of San Diego County, but she is a Vista High School graduate and

also chairs the state Assembly’s Appropriations Committee.

“This is quite an accomplishment,” she said of the groundbreaking.

Fletcher noted that the project will create 400 construction jobs and 200 permanent jobs which will complement Pala’s existing 2,000 jobs.

Randy Voepel represents the 71st Assembly District which has more Indian tribes than any other state lower house district in the United States.

“I represent the California tribe, and we’d like to congratulate Pala on their incredible journey,” he said.

Pala is in the 75th Assembly District, which is represented by Marie Waldron.

“Pala has been a great neighbor to the surrounding communities in our district,” Waldron said.

Waldron noted that the casino has had a positive economic impact on the region.

“We’re very grateful for that,” she said.

Pala’s contributions also include philanthropy, and the casino has allowed Pala to fund a fire department which contributes to the public safety of surrounding areas.

“Our region is a better place,”

Pala Band of Mission Indians Chairman Robert Smith uses a bulldozer to demolish the roof and awning of a 15-foot by 17-foot brick kiosk poolside at Pala Casino Spa & Resort to officially break ground on the resort’s $170 million expansion project Tuesday, Oct. 17.

Waldron said.

Waldron presented a certificate of recognition at the ground-breaking ceremony from the state Assembly to Smith, as well as the comments shared by Waldron, Fletcher and Voepel.

The existing hotel tower has 507 rooms. The renovation will convert some of those rooms into larger suites, so the casino hotel will have 853 rooms after construction is completed: 749 deluxe rooms and 104 suites. The casino will have 2,500 slot machines, 88 table games and eight poker tables.

The parking garage included in the 2008 expansion is sufficient to handle the additional patrons who will take advantage of the expanded casino space, so the three new levels on the hotel parking garage will be the only additional parking included in the construction.

The hotel has 12,000 square feet of conference rooms. That figure will remain the same.

“That’s one area where we feel we are sufficient for our needs. We’re not into the large conventions,” Bembenek said.

Conferences can also be held in the Pala events center, which is a 20,000-square-foot room.

The need for more overnight lodging was the initial cause of the plans for the new expansion.

“Our 507-room hotel operates at full capacity,” Bembenek said. “We need more hotel rooms.”

During the past year, the hotel rooms had a 97 percent occupancy rate.

“We’re sold out every weekend,” Smith said. “Another 346 will keep our good guests coming.”

The decision was made to renovate other parts of the casino as well.

“Our property is 16 years old,” Bembenek said. “It’s time for an upgrade and a refresh.”

The May 2018 completion date for the outdoor portion of the expansion will ensure that concerts

or other events can be held at the Palomar Starlight Theater during the outdoor facility’s normal period of operation.

“It will not be interrupted. The timing of this is specifically because of that,” Bembenek said.

Oktoberfest was held Oct. 14 as the final 2017 event held outdoors.

The next Palomar Starlight Theater concert is planned for the third week in May, although no band has been selected.

The Pala events center is also used for concerts or comedy performances as well as for some boxing and mixed martial arts events.

Concerts for which tickets are sold, free tribute band performances and private events have taken place at Infinity.

“Infinity will close after the first of the year,” Bembenek said. “Infinity is going to make way for more gaming.”

The signature bar will also occupy some of the former Infinity square footage.

Pala is the only casino in San Diego County which allows music fans to see tribute bands for free.

“It’s great to offer that,” Smith said.

Luis Rey’s is part of the restaurant promenade, and the renovations will double Luis Rey’s in size.

“That’s where I envision the tribute bands,” Bembenek said.

The tribute bands may also play outside at the Palomar Starlight Theater when weather and the absence of another event there permit.

Pala’s 60-Plus Club members can enjoy early afternoon concerts at Infinity every Tuesdays. The 60Plus Club will use the Pala events center after Infinity closes.

The center bar stage will be retained; after the renovations, the bands will play there during weekdays and will use Luis Rey’s for weekends. Bands currently play at Luis Rey’s and also at the Cave wine cellar.

Airplane museum in French Valley throws 70s-style party honoring Vietnam War veterans U.S. Navy veteran Bob Ulrey talks about the Sidewinder heatseeking missile he used to install, now attached to the Wings and Rotors Air Museum F-4 Phantom on display during the “Salute to Vietnam!” event, Oct. 21. The museum’s F-4 Phantom was an early prototype for the U.S. Navy in 1959 and served as the 11th preproduction model.

Alex Groves AGROVES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Guests who visited the Wings & Rotors Air Museum in French Valley Saturday, Oct. 21, were transported back in time to a 1970s-themed party honoring Vietnam War veterans.

The “Salute to Vietnam!” event began at 5 p.m. at the museum, located at 37350 Sky Canyon Drive. It included cocktails, dinner, raffles and music performed by the Temecula-based Phoenix Patriot Band.

Proceeds from the event went to support the museum, which is a nonprofit dedicated to restoring former military aircraft to flying condition with emphasis on aircraft from the Vietnam War. “Since we’re basically a Vietnam-era museum, we decided to have our first fundraiser be a ‘Nam-era theme,’” Judy Rodgers, who fills a variety of roles for the museum, said. “So we’re paying tribute to our veterans, and we thought it would be fun to come dress in your 70s attire.”

Guests, many wearing 70s-style clothing, stopped to look at some of the aircraft on display.

There was a Bell UH-1B “Huey,” helicopter that was common during the Vietnam War, and a F4H-1F Phantom, a fighter plane designed for the United States Navy. Rodgers said the museum was hoping to

procure the parts to make both of the aircraft operational.

There was another Huey on display, just for show as an art installation. It was painted in mostly camouflage colors, save for an American flag painted on the bottom and tail and brightly colored flowers at the top. Light green and black spray paint overlaid some of the camouflage paint.

Printed atop the camo was a list of companies that had served in Vietnam.

Matthew Casey, 70, of San Jacinto quickly found his company. He said he served in the 129th Assault Helicopter Company for the Army, flying missions from the central highlands to the Vietnamese towns of Qhui Non, An Khe and Pleiku.

Casey said seeing the old aircraft brought back memories of having to fly back into the jungle at night and do maintenance on his airship.

They’d open up the hatches and train two big spotlights on the ship so that crews could do that work, he said.

“In a jungle environment, your shirt’s off and you’re laying on your back trying to do maintenance and these weird bugs are laying all over you,” he said, a bit of a laugh in his voice. “Not to mention we were a BLT. That’s a Big Loud Target.”

Tom Woehl, 73, of Escondido, an Army veteran, also found his company, the 282nd Assault Helicopter Company, or the Black Cats, listed

on the art installation. He said the installation was an H-model Huey, but he had flown B- and C-model gunships during Vietnam.

In addition to seeing the aircraft and listening to music, guests had the opportunity to participate in raffle drawings.

Some of the raffle prizes available at the event included a Temecula Valley Wine Country Aerial Tour, eight wine tastings

from Doffo Wines and an ultimate dinner package that included meals at Shogun Restaurant, Outback Steakhouse, Lazy Dog Restaurant & Bar and Yard House.

Though this event was Wings & Rotors’ first official fundraiser event, the museum has been around for more than a decade.

Shayne Meder, a retired Air Force veteran, said she’s been working at the museum since the

beginning, painting and repairing aircraft.

She said that thing that she most enjoyed about the event was the chance to honor Vietnam veterans in particular.

“We honor all veterans, but tonight’s event is specifically for Vietnam vets,” she said. “A lot of them weren’t thanked enough or soon enough.”

Bordeaux blend from Maurice Car’rie honors winery’s founders Alex Groves AGROVES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

When Budd Van Roekel and his wife Maurice opened their winery in the Temecula Valley in 1986, they were among only a few visionaries that had seen the potential of the soon to be blossoming wine region.

Today Maurice Car’rie Winery is one of the names synonymous with the Temecula Valley Wine Country and if you ask winery staff why, they’ll tell you the couple’s dedication to making the venue a success and their commitment to each other played a big role.

The founders are being honored in a big way, with a special 2014

Bordeaux blend that includes cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon and merlot.

The wine is full bodied and full of personality, and winemaker Renato Sais thought it would be a great tribute to the couple.

“It was kind of my gift personally to them, for giving me the opportunity to work here,” Sais said. “It was a way to say, ‘thank you, this is to you guys.’”

Coming up with a name and a label for the wine took some time, Sais said. He reached out to other employees at Maurice Car’rie to find a word that would be applicable.

“The ‘devotion’ word came about because I think the employees just saw the dedication that they had between the two of them and it was part of the culture that was established,” said General Manager Gary Van Roekel, Budd’s son and Maurice’s stepson.

The couple’s first foray into business was not in wine at all, but actually in roller skating. They operated a handful of successful roller skating rinks in the Orange County area before deciding to make the scenic and tranquil Temecula Valley their home.

They purchased 90 acres of land which had the area’s oldest vineyard, planted in 1968. From there they worked with great effort

and dedication to put out quality wines year after year, Gary Van Roekel said.

“Maurice and Budd put their heads together to create what you see here today,” he said.

Budd died in 2012, but Maurice is still involved with the winery, acting as the company president.

The lessons the couple imparted and the culture they created is still very much a part of the winery and it’s something the special wine seeks to commemorate, Gary Van Roekel said.

“These are good people that work hard, roll their sleeves up and get the job done and really wanted to provide a great service and a great quality product,” he said of his parents. “This is a salute and a recognition to the couple that dedicated a good portion of their lives making this a reality.”

Dive into pumpkin cheesecake with gingersnap crust TEMECULA – Pumpkins are readily available in fall, when people carve jack-o’-lanterns out of pumpkins for Halloween or serve up pumpkin pie after a hearty Thanksgiving dinner.

People who are unsatisfied with plain old pumpkin pie can add something new to their repertoire this fall by cooking up the following recipe for pumpkin cheesecake with gingersnap crust, courtesy of Lori Longbotham’s book “Luscious Creamy Desserts,” published by Chronicle Books.

Pumpkin Cheesecake with Gingersnap Crust Serves 8 to 10 Crust 1 1/2 cups gingersnap cookie crumbs 1/2 cup finely chopped hazelnuts 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 1/4 cup sugar Filling 1 1/2 pounds cream cheese, at room temperature 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

1/4 cup granulated sugar 2 large eggs 2 large egg yolks 1 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice 1 cup solid-pack pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie mix 1/2 cup creme fraiche, homemade (see below) or store-bought or sour cream 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract Heat the oven to 350 F. Lightly butter an 8-inch or 8 1/2-inch springform pan.

To make the crust, stir together all of the ingredients in a medium bowl until the crumbs are moistened. Press the mixture over the bottom and up the sides of the pan.

Bake the crust for 10 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Increase the oven temperature to 425 F. To make the filling, use an electric mixer on medium speed to beat the cream cheese, brown sugar and granulated sugar in a large deep bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, adding the egg yolks one at a time and beating well after each

addition. Add the flour and pumpkin pie spice and beat on low speed until just combined. Add the pumpkin puree, creme fraiche and vanilla and beat until just combined. Pour the filling into the shell.

Place the cheesecake on a baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 250 F and continue baking for 1 hour.

Turn the oven off and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 2 1/2 hours. Then transfer to a wire rack and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate, tightly covered, for at least 10 hours, until thoroughly chilled and set or for up to two days.

To serve, run a knife around the side of the cheesecake and remove the side of the pan. Serve slightly chilled or at room temperature, cut into thin wedges with a sharp knife dipped into hot water and wiped dry after each cut.

Creme Fraiche Makes about 1/2 cup

Pumpkin cheesecake with gingersnap crust could be a new addition to the Thanksgiving table.

Pour the cream into a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid and spoon in the creme fraiche. Let sit on the counter, with the lid slightly ajar,

until the mixture thickens, from four hours to 24 hours, depending on the weather. Refrigerate, tightly covered, until ready to use.

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream 1/2 cup creme fraiche or sour cream with live cultures

How to select a pumpkin for cooking TEMECULA – One of the more vivid sights this time of year are the bright, orange pumpkins that adorn walkways and front porches of homes and businesses. Not only are pumpkins ideal for decorating, but they’re also great to eat.

Some people who plan to carve jack-o’-lanterns mistakenly believe the same type of pumpkin can be used in their favorite recipes. But what carving pumpkins offer in visual flair, they usually lack in flavor and substance. Instead, would-be pumpkin cookers should look to other varieties if they plan to serve pumpkin on the menu.

Pumpkins are available from September through December, but they peak in October. Many smaller pumpkins are better and sweeter for cooking. Mini pumpkins, sugar, cheese and pie pumpkins are varieties commonly used in recipes. The big jack-o’-lantern pumpkins have stringy, watery flesh and will provide little to no pulp for cooking.

Select a pumpkin the same way as any other type of squash. Look for a firm pumpkin with no bruises or soft spots. The pumpkin also should have a deep orange color.

Store pumpkins in a cool, dark area until ready for use to prolong freshness. Wash the exterior of the pumpkin in cool water before cutting to remove any dirt and bacteria on the surface of the pumpkin, so it won’t be transferred to the pulp of the pumpkin.

Slice the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds and any stringy material. Rinse and save the seeds for planting or roasting. Put the pumpkin pieces in the microwave to cook or steam or bake them until

the pulp is soft and the pumpkin falls off the skin. Cool the pumpkins, before pureeing the pulp until smooth. It is recommended to strain the pureed pumpkin with a cheesecloth to remove any excess water before using it in a pie recipe.

Baked breads may benefit from the extra moisture however.

Pumpkins are a great source of

dietary fiber, vitamin A, vitamin C, riboflavin, potassium, copper, manganese, vitamin E, thiamin, niacin, vitamin B-6, folate, iron, calcium, magnesium and phosphorus. They’re also low in fat and calories. Pumpkin puree can replace the oil in some baking recipes in the same way that people use applesauce.

‘BOOrific’ Halloween events coming to Hemet, San Jacinto and Temecula Valley Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

Witches will fly and goblins will prowl this Halloween weekend in the Hemet and San Jacinto valleys with special events planned at the Ramona Bowl and San Jacinto’s Farmers Corner, Oct. 27-29.

The fun for children and brave adults who seek the thrill of Halloween and all its spooky treats begins Friday, Oct. 27, just as the sun begins to fade 6 p.m. at the Ramona “Boo” Bowl Amphitheater, 2700 Ramona Bowl Road, and the creaky door swings open 3 p.m. at Farmers Corner’s “Casa Loca” house, located at 2575 San Jacinto Ave. Casa Loca haunted house in San Jacinto The Casa Loca haunted house, presented by the San Jacinto Chamber of Commerce and local businesses with Rick Baker’s Troupe of Los Souls, will first entice children to visit “Candy Corner,” 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Friday when the San Jacinto Police Department will be on hand to teach children about bicycle and

traffic safety and to follow safe Halloween “Trick or Trick” times on Halloween night.

The children will be able to enter Casa Loca for free and instead of the ghosts and ghouls, for a time it will become a “Land of Fantasy” and fun with fairies, the Mad Hatter, a gingerbread house and other funny characters and treats. The biggest treat of the afternoon will be for 60 needy children who may end up going home with a new bicycle presented by the chamber of commerce.

When the creaky door closes at 6 p.m. the atmosphere will change, and there will be strange sounds coming from inside Casa Loca as 20 local actors will go to work putting on new makeup and transforming a fantasy world into a 20-room, twostory maze of scary, noisy things that go “creep in the night.” When the door opens again, and a $10 entry fee is paid, the Casa Loca will be a different and dark world for the visitors. Parents are urged to go with their little ones. The scary fun will continue Saturday, Oct. 28, through Halloween night Tuesday, Oct. 31,

nightly from 7 to 10 p.m.

“Boo” time at Ramona Bowl in Hemet Across the Valley, the Ramona Bowl will come alive with strobe lights, strange sounds whisking through the air and creepy music as night falls, 6 p.m., Friday, Oct. 27.

The “Boo Witches” of the Bowl for only a $5 entry fee invite young and old inside their ‘lair’ … home… at the Bowl. Their entryway will remain open for new ‘victims’…visitors…until 8 p.m. each of the three evenings, Oct. 27-29. The Bowl said it is always a mystery who will return from the haunted bowl when the entry closes at 9:30 p.m.

The “Boo Witches” have ‘cooked up’ a lot of fun and games for the unsuspecting visitors. ”Boo at the Bowl” is sponsored by Stater Bros markets in conjunction with Valley Wide Recreation for a fun-filled Halloween carnival and trick-ortreat trail through the campus of the beautiful Ramona Bowl in Hemet.

With the $5 per person admission, visitors will receive 10 tickets. Additional tickets can be purchased for

California Chamber Orchestra announces 2017-18 season, ‘Life Stories: a Series of Shared Experiences’ TEMECULA – There’s much more to the California Chamber Orchestra’s 2017-18 season than audiences might expect.

“A concert is about more than just the music,” Dana Zimbric, artistic director and conductor, said. “It’s a shared experience, merging the life stories of the composers, the performers and the audiences.”

That’s the idea that underlies the programs Zimbric assembled for the professional orchestra’s 13th annual concert series, each one tells a story from a different perspective.

The first concert, “Sister Acts,” will be performed 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 4, at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater.

“Sisters, and the idea of sisterhood have been important to music historically, and that continues to this day,” Zimbric said. “This concert explores the influence of sisters Nadia and Lili Boulanger.”

Nadia Boulanger, a professor at the Paris Conservatory, was among the most important composition teachers of the early 20th century.

She hosted a salon that included her pupils and other composers, artists and musicians of the period. Her sister Lili was an important composer in her own right.

“Our concert includes music by Lili, as well as a wonderful piece

by Nadia’s student, Astor Piazzolla, his ‘Four Seasons of Buenos Aires,’” Zimbric said. “We’ll also perform the ‘Dumbarton Oaks Concerto’ by Igor Stravinsky, perhaps the most important composer in Nadia’s orbit.”

The Jung Trio is the featured soloist for this concert.

“These three sisters have performed here before to great acclaim,” Zimbric said. “I’m excited to have them back to perform with our orchestra.”

The second concert “An English Christmas” will be held 7:30 p.m.

Saturday, Dec. 2, at the Murrieta United Methodist Church.

“There are few stories more important to our culture than the story of Christmas,” Zimbric said.

“Last season we shared a Christmas

program at Murrieta Methodist with our friends, the Temecula Valley Master Chorale. It was quite literally standing room only and a wonderful, fulfilling musical experience.

We knew we needed to do it again.”

This year’s program has a British theme.

“So many of our American ideas and traditions around the holidays have their roots in England,” Zimbric said. “And that includes the English musical tradition.”

The orchestra and chorale will collaborate to present the “Fantasia on Christmas Carols” by Ralph Vaughan Williams, and selections from Handel’s “Messiah.” Each ensemble will also perform additional works.

The “Out of This World” concert is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

Saturday, Feb. 24, at Old Town Temecula Community Theater.

“Like a lot of people, I’m a bit of a space nut,” Zimbric said.

“And I’m really inspired by the recent 40th anniversary of NASA’s Voyager I mission, with its ‘Golden Record’ featuring the sounds of planet Earth.”

The concert features music included on the Voyager mission, including Johann Sebastian Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 and the first movement from Ludwig von Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5. In the spirit of exploration, the program also includes the West Coast premiere of Paul Dooley’s “Concerto Grosso,” featuring Trio Celeste.

“Kevin Kwan Loucks and Iryna Krechkovsky of Trio Celeste have appeared as soloists with the California Chamber Orchestra,” Zimbric said. “And we’ve featured the trio both in our Classics at The Merc recital series and as part of the Temecula Presents Classical Series. Their recent Carnegie Hall premiere of the Dooley ‘Concerto Grosso’ presented an opportunity to continue our collaboration.”

The Gershwin Performing Arts Center at Murrieta Mesa High School will host “Let’s Dance!”

7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 7.

RED CARPET EVENT SUNDAY,

“True confessions … I was a dancer before I decided to become a professional musician,” Zimbric said. “Of course, without music there is no dance; but I can’t imagine music without the incredible influence of dance and dancers.”

For the concert, the orchestra will be joined by dancers from Murrieta’s Academy of Ballet Arts.

The two groups will collaborate to present the “Carnival of the Animals” by Camille Saint-Saens.

The program also includes “Dance Card” by contemporary composer Jennifer Higdon in a performance supported by a grant from Women’s Philharmonic Advocacy.

“I think this would be a great concert for the entire family,” Zimbric said. “The combination of the music and the visual element of the dancers, as well as the story behind the ‘Carnival of the Animals’ make this a perfect way to introduce youngsters to a kind of music they may not have heard before.”

Also at the Gershwin Performing Arts Center at Murrieta Mesa, the

orchestra will present “Midori: A Partners in Performance Recital” 7:30 p.m. Saturday, April 21.

“It’s not every classical artist who can use just one name,” Zimbric said of virtuoso violinist Midori. “She’s among the most famous classical musicians performing today, as well as an extremely influential teacher of young violinists.”

Through Midori’s Partners in Performance program, the California Chamber Orchestra is able to present this special recital by Midori, accompanied by pianist Ozgur Aydin.

“We were selected to present Midori’s recital through a very competitive process,” Zimbric said.

“Through these recitals, Midori is helping smaller communities to raise awareness of chamber music and build audiences.”

All of the concerts are presented as a part of the Temecula Presents Classical Series. The series also includes three additional concerts at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater, including the Saguaro Piano Trio, Saturday, Jan. 6; the Argus

String Quartet, Saturday, March 10, and pianist Steven Lin, Saturday, May 26.

Individual tickets for Midori are $48 general admission and $10 for students. For all other concerts in the series, tickets are $35 General admission, $30 for seniors and $10 for student. Children 10 and under are free.

For the best value, an eight-concert series including the four California Chamber Orchestra concerts, three additional Temecula Presents concerts and Midori is $185. The 7-concert series, excluding Midori, is $150 or choose any 5 concerts, excluding Midori, for $125.

Information and individual tickets for all concerts are available at www.CalChamberOrchestra.org.

The tickets can also be purchased as part of the Temecula Presents Classical series by calling (866) 653-8696 or visiting the ticket office at the Old Town Temecula Community Theater.

Peter Curtis, leader of the Peter Curtis Quartet band, plays a combination of Bosa Nova, tango and jazz on his guitar at the Diamond Valley Art Center’s stage during Festival of the Arts, Oct. 20-21, in Hemet.

Diamond Valley Arts Council President Lois Stipp judges one of the DVAC artists’ pieces for the 12th annual Juried Art Show. The winning art pieces are available to view at the Diamond Valley Art Center gallery at 123 N. Harvard St. in historic downtown Hemet.

Tony Ault TAULT@REEDERMEDIA.COM

A weekend of the fine arts concluded with the West Valley High School Jazz Band giving a sterling performance, the Peter Curtis Quartet delighting the audience on the Diamond Valley Arts Center stage and the winners of 12th annual Juried Art Show announced in Hemet, Oct. 20-21.

The Festival of the Arts, presented by the Diamond Valley Arts Council each year, highlights the fine music, art and dance talents prevalent in the Hemet San Jacinto Valley that is bringing more and more notoriety to the Valley for its arts and culture.

Not to leave out the up-and-coming young artists in the community, the art creations of local school students hang in the DVAC from the second annual Youth Art Competition sponsored by the Hemet/ San Jacinto Valley Chamber of Commerce, local businesses and the Hemet Valley Art Association. The best of the student artwork and local professional artists will remain on display at the DVAC gallery at 123 N. Harvard St. in historic downtown Hemet through November and the first part of December. The pieces are offered for sale.

The DVAC Festival of the Arts began Friday with the appearance of the internationally recognized West Valley Jazz Band, directed by Thomas J. Hepburn, whose talented musicians took the stage pleasing a large audience of parents and jazz aficionados. The band has won regional and national recognition.

The performance was preceded by the announcement of the winners of the second annual Art for Youth Competition creations, some of which are still hanging in the DVAC gallery. Most notable are the works of 15-year-old Aaliyah Webster, a Western Science Academy sophomore whose colorful second-place and third-place digital pieces “Low Power” and “Look Both Ways,”

Topping off the DVAC Festival of the Arts events Saturday evening was the jazz performance of the Peter Curtis Quartet, which played original jazz songs written by guitarist Peter Curtis, and jazz standards or renditions written by the well-known jazz pianist Thelonious Monk that brought cheers and applause by an appreciative audience.

Curtis and his fellow musicians, Boba Elfante on the bass, Dave Hutchens on drums and Jeff Benedict on the saxophone, are nationally known for their funky jazz music, including their top hit “Swing State.”

Curtis introduced the quartet’s jazz songs with what he liked to call “middle age puns” that brought laughter from those attending. The quartet played their originals like “Swing State,” “Funky in What Sense” and the mixed jazz and funk tune “Disfunksional Relationship.”

Curtis’ own tremendous jazz guitar skills were backed by Benedict on saxophone, as they played

hung in the gallery for all to see. The first place winner was Arnie Felich Dela Cruz’s stunning acrylic portrait called “Tru Self,” which stands out on the brick wall of the galley. Cruz is a 19-year-old, West Valley High School student. WSC student Hunter Meyer won the first-place award in the digital category with his “Extraterrestrial Landscape.”

The DVAC art competition judges, led by DVAC President Lois Stipp announced the winners of the council’s 12th annual Juried Art Show, Saturday, Oct. 21. The 2-D first place winner is Pat Stocking with her “White and Gray” piece hanging in the gallery. Laura Ryan’s colorful “Where the Flowers Dance” won first place in the watercolor category. A painted ukulele entitled “Pastoral Song” and created by Andre Lohnert hangs on the DVAC art board for winning second place in the 3-D category. A few of the DVAC award-winning art pieces

a jazzed-up mix of Bosa Nova and Tango with the song “The Bosses Tango.” The piece began with a Curtis’s fine melodic solo guitar, joined by Benedict’s sax; the solid drum beat and cymbals from Hutchens completed the arrangement with bassist Benedict.

The DVAC will be announcing many the upcoming weekend music and art events coming in November and December. For a complete schedule of events, visit www. thedvac.org or call (951) 652-3822.

The Diamond Valley Arts Council is located in the heart of the Historic Harvard District in Hemet and houses two galleries and a performance stage. The Elena Kern Fine Art Gallery is adjacent to the DVAC

Gallery and changes its exhibits every six week. The recently expanded performance stage is built inside the 1800s brick-walled building with art stage lighting and sound and has seen some of the best local and national artists performing live. It hosts community and regional events.

The nonprofit DVAC founded in 2004 is dedicated to advancing the arts through its partnerships with individual artists, art organizations, businesses and agencies, actively promoting arts awareness and opportunities. The DVAC is 100 percent community supported and relies on the generous donations of its members and the community.

Health

Medicare open enrollment season is here from year to year. A plan can raise its monthly premium or drop a medicine that is needed.

So it makes good sense to review coverage each year. Make sure the plan still is a good fit in terms of cost, coverage and quality.

If it isn’t, look for another plan.

During open enrollment, people can sign up for a Medicare Advantage health plan or Part D prescription drug plan or switch from one plan to another. The new coverage will take effect Jan. 1.

How do people shop for a new plan?

One way is the “Medicare & You” handbook, mailed each fall to every Medicare household in the country. This booklet lists all the Medicare health and drug plans available nearby, along with basic information such as premiums, deductibles and contacts.

There’s also the Medicare Plan Finder at www.Medicare.gov.

Look for a green button, labeled “Find health & drug plans.” Click on that button, type in a ZIP code, and see all the Medicare Advantage and Part D plans available in that area. Patients can compare plans based on benefits, premiums, copays and estimated out-of-pocket costs. Contact information for the

Greg Dill SPECIAL TO VALLEY NEWS

When people shop for a new car, they don’t just buy the first one they see, do they?

Probably not. They usually shop around, looking for the best deal they can get on a vehicle that fits their driving needs as well as their pocketbook.

Well, it’s the time of year for people to begin shopping around for a Medicare health or drug plan.

Medicare’s open enrollment period began Oct. 15 and runs through Dec. 7.

For people with Original Medicare, meaning that they can choose any doctor or hospital that accepts Medicare, they don’t need to think about open enrollment.

But if someone has a Medicare Advantage, Part C, health plan or a Medicare, Part D, prescription drug plan, they may want to see whether there’s another plan on the market that would be a better match with a lower price.

If a person is enrolled in a plan and they’re happy with it, they don’t need to do anything.

But Medicare health and drug plans – run by private insurers approved by Medicare – can change

plans is listed.

For people without access to a computer, call (800) 633-4227.

Customer service representatives can help answer questions about Medicare health and drug plans.

The call is free.

Another terrific resource is the State Health Insurance and Counseling Program.

SHIP is an independent, nonprofit organization that provides free, personalized counseling to people with Medicare. Make an appointment to speak with a SHIP counselor in-person or over the phone.

SHIP counselors are well-trained volunteers who are often enrolled in Medicare as well, so they know the issues that others face. They can help people sort through different health and drug plans and help find one that’s right for them.

To contact the local SHIP office, go to www.shiptacenter.org.

For people who are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan as of Jan. 1 but who find that they are not satisfied with it, they have a 45-day window to disenroll. Between Jan. 1 and Feb. 14, people can drop their plan and return to Original Medicare. They can also sign up for a

Part D drug plan during that time.

Having trouble paying for a Part D plan? People may be eligible for the Extra Help program, which helps cover premiums, deductibles and co-pays. Medicare beneficiaries typically save about $4,000 annually with Extra Help.

For more information on Extra Help, go to www.SSA.gov/prescriptionhelp.

Murrieta Police Department to host drug take back event with Drug Enforcement Administration MURRIETA – The Murrieta Police Department and the Drug Enforcement Administration will give the public another opportunity to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused and unwanted prescription drugs.

The community can bring medications for disposal, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday, Oct. 28, in the front lobby of the Murrieta Police Department, located at 2 Town Square in Murrieta. The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.

Last April, Americans turned in 450 tons or over 900,386 pounds of prescription drugs at almost 5,500 sites operated by the DEA and more than 4,200 of its state and local law enforcement partners. Overall, in its 13 previous take back events, DEA and its partners have taken in over 8.1 million pounds – about

4,052 tons – of prescription drugs.

This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse and abuse.

Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs. Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines – flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash – both pose potential safety and health hazards.

Any questions about the event should be directed to Murrieta Police Department Lt. Ron Driscoll at (951) 461-6377.

Desert Hills Memory Care residents volunteer at Valley Restart Shelter HEMET – Desert Hills Memory Care, located at 25818 Columbia Street in Hemet, is giving back to the community in the Hemet San Jacinto Valley. Residents and associates from Desert Hills volunteered at Valley Restart Shelter Thursday, Sept. 21, on the first of several service days the community will be spending at VRS. Valley Restart Shelter is a nonprofit agency committed to ending homelessness by providing training and resources families and individuals need to restart their lives.

While still offering food, shelter and other basic needs, Valley Restart’s goal is to help the homeless get off the streets permanently by helping them find effective solutions.

For the residents at Desert Hills

Memory Care, volunteering is a meaningful opportunity to experience the joy of giving back.

“Often, those living with Alzheimer’s disease and other types of memory loss feel as though they have nothing left to give,” Rachael Wallace, life enrichment director at Desert Hills, said. “Volunteering with an agency like Valley Restart gives our residents a chance to contribute and benefits their lives just as much as it helps the shelter.”

To join Desert Hills Memory Care on future service days at Valley Restart Shelter, contact Wallace for more details at (951) 652-1837.

Loma Linda University Health to host seventh International Congress on Vegetarian Nutrition LOMA LINDA – The seventh International Congress on Vegetarian Nutrition, globally recognized as the world’s premier scientific congress on the effects of vegetarian and other plant-based diets, is set to convene for three days in February to showcase recent advances from basic science, epidemiology and clinical trials in vegetarian nutrition from around the planet.

The congress, which is hosted by Loma Linda University’s School of Public Health and begins Monday, Feb. 26, is expected to draw more than 700 scientists, physicians and nutritionists.

The congress is held every five years and is the only time when the world’s leading scientists, researchers and scholars versed in the study of plant-based diets gather to unveil research findings and raise

provocative ideas.

“We’re pleased to be hosting The seventh International Congress on Vegetarian Nutrition, which will provide a forum for a review of all the best research, concepts and applications of vegetarian dietary practices for preventing

diseases and promoting health,” Dr. Joan Sabate, director of the Center for Nutrition, Lifestyle and Disease Prevention and chair of the event, said. “It’s our goal that every congress participant acquire better understanding and skills on the effects of vegetarian diets for

the health of people and the planet.”

Sabate said the theme for next year’s event, “Plant-based Nutrition for Personal, Population and Planetary Health,” signals a significant shift in both scope and awareness from previous years. He cites recent studies as examples of the often unexpected ways plant-based nutrition benefits the health of the ecological environment.

Sabate said that when the congress first started 35 years ago, vegetarian nutrition was ignored, unknown or rejected by most health professionals. But as the general population has increasingly embraced plant-based diets, he said the congress has become recognized as the global leader in educating health professionals in how to advise and treat their vegetarian clients and stay current on the scientific literature.

The event will feature an enlarged

culinary demonstration by chefs who specialize in healthy, delicious vegetarian cuisine. Scientists and chefs will mingle theoretical discussions about the health benefits of plant-based foods into their demonstrations.

The previous congress, held in 2013, drew nearly 900 participants from more than 40 countries.

The congress is accredited for more than 20 hours of continuing education units and continuing medical education.

The public is invited to a vegetarian food fair and a series of free lectures, which will be held the Sunday before the congress begins.

Registration will open November 2017. Early registration ends Jan. 26.

Sheriff’s officials urge precautions ahead of Halloween outings PERRIS – Parents, guardians and others planning to chaperone children during Halloween outings in Riverside County were urged to take some basic precautions to keep the trick-or-treaters safe.

“Halloween can be a safe and enjoyable evening with a little preparation, communication and

diligence,” according to a sheriff’s department statement.

Deputies from both the Menifee and Perris stations encouraged residents to make certain that youngsters are supervised either by an adult or teenaged relative or friend and are not permitted to go walking alone.

According to agency officials, children should stay in well-lit areas, remain on sidewalks and always use crosswalks, as well as avoid cutting through alleyways and parks, decline invitations to go into unfamiliar homes and, preferably, carry flashlights.

The sheriff’s department warned

against consuming “homemade treats or unpackaged foods,” and officials said inspecting all candy before eating it is a good idea to confirm that it has been properly wrapped, is not discolored or bears signs of having been tampered with and generally looks edible.

If driving to different places

on Halloween, officials reminded motorists to go slowly for the sake of the little “ghosts, ghouls and superheroes” who may be crossing streets in the neighborhoods.

Residents who see or are concerned about suspicious activity should call 911, according to sheriff’s officials.

Western Dental christens new office in Perris PERRIS – Western Dental, one of the nation’s largest dental providers, took up occupancy in Perris after acquiring the Choice Family Dentistry office.

Western Dental had an open house, Sept. 28, at its new Perris location, 1688 North Perris Blvd., in the Perris Shopping Plaza. The gathering included Perris Mayor Michael Vargas, Perris school board member Virniecia Green-Jordan and numerous representatives from the Perris Chamber of Commerce.

The event included a ribbon cutting and tours of the new office.

Western Dental is the leading California provider of services

to the Denti-Cal program. With the purchase of the Perris office, Western Dental will now be able to provide Denti-Cal services through Medi-Cal at its new location, assuring that people who can’t afford dental services are able to receive frequent care.

An estimated one-third of Californians are covered by Denti-Cal, but many people don’t know where to go to receive the treatment.

“Western Dental has a longstanding commitment to patients of all economic means throughout California. We are extremely pleased to now be able to accept Denti-Cal patients at our Perris of-

fice,” Dr. John Luther, chief medical officer for Western Dental, said.

“Western Dental has been treating Denti-Cal patients for nearly 50 years. It’s very important to us that children and adults receive the preventive services they need and get timely quality dental care.”

The Perris staff includes Dr. Murat Gurz, two dentists, two specialists, including an orthodontist and three hygienists.

Nationally, Western Dental employs more than 4,500 dental professionals and support teams, including more than 700 dentists and a full range of specialists – periodontists, endodontists,

Types of firepits for your backyard oasis

Courtesy photos

TEMECULA – Outdoor entertaining areas are popular among homeowners, and firepits are one of the most sought-after additions to such spaces. In fact, a 2016 survey from the American Society of Landscape Architects found that fireplaces and firepits were the most popular outdoor design element in 2016. Various styles are available to homeowners who want to add firepits to their backyards, and choosing the right type may come down to budget, the amount of yard space available or even personal preference.

Wood firepit: As their name suggests, wood firepits burn wood, which may appeal to homeowners who already have wood-burning

fireplaces inside their homes.

Because they don’t require homeowners to tap into gas lines, wood firepits are generally easy to set up and install, and many homeowners prefer the aesthetic appeal of crackling wood and flames that’s synonymous with wood firepits.

Gas firepit: Gas firepits are touted for their convenience, as they don’t require homeowners to carry wood and build fires. Upon being connected to a gas source, gas firepits provide fire at the click of a switch. Gas firepits are also appreciated for their safety, as there is little or no risk that flames from gas firepits will grow too large and become difficult to control.

Gas fire tables: Gas fire tables might be ideal for those homeowners whose sense of decor favors more modern looks. Gas fire tables come in a variety of shapes and sizes and, like gas firepits, there’s no need to struggle with lighting a fire or carrying firewood.

Tabletop firepits: Homeowners, condominium or apartment dwellers with limited backyard

space may want to consider the convenience of tabletop firepits.

Restaurants may use tabletop firepits in their outdoor seating areas because they provide warmth and ambiance without taking up much space. Tabletop firepits fueled by gas will not need to be connected to a gas source, which may appeal to consumers who want something that’s simple as

well as small.

Fire urns: While they might not technically qualify as firepits, fire urns provide a similar effect as firepits. Fire urns are typically gas-powered and may be an ideal choice for homeowners who are looking for a unique, aweinspiring feature for their outdoor entertaining areas.

How to make bedrooms more conducive to sleep searchers asked healthy adults to sleep just four hours per night for six nights. At the conclusion of that period, participants’ ability to break down glucose had decreased by an average of 40 percent and reached levels that are consistent with those of older adults at risk for diabetes.

Insufficient sleep may be linked to any of a host of factors, including the bedroom environment. An environment that promotes restful sleep can help people suffering from insomnia or restlessness improve the quality of their sleep.

The NSF offers the following tips to make bedrooms more conducive to sleep.

TEMECULA – Insufficient sleep causes more problems than many people may know. Fatigue after a poor night’s sleep might seem like an inconvenience that can be easily rectified, but the long-term effects of insufficient sleep are significant.

According to the National Sleep Foundation, researchers have found a link between insufficient sleep and an elevated risk for type 2 diabetes. In one such study exploring that potential link, re-

Set the right temperature. The NSF notes that research indicates a bedroom temperature of roughly 65 F makes for the best sleep. Human beings’ body temperatures rise and fall throughout the day, reaching their lowest level around 5 a.m. each day before slowly climbing as morning begins. A room that is too warm overnight may interfere with this natural dip, leading to restlessness. If necessary, install a programmable thermostat in the bedroom so the temperature in the room remains steady and in line with your body’s natural temperature fluctuations.

Address allergens. Some people may trace their sleeping difficulties to allergies. Dust and pollen in the bedroom can make for a disruptive night’s sleep.

Wash bedding once per week in

hot water if dust mites are proving problematic. If pillows cannot be washed, dry them using high heat to kill dust mites. In addition, cover the mattress in a mattress protector that guards against allergens and dust mites. If pollen is finding its way into the bedroom, always keep bedroom windows closed during allergy season.

Use a white noise machine.

Noise is another potential contributor to poor sleep. The NSF notes that some people may have their sleep interrupted by noise even if they don’t know it. White noise machines are often used to help infants sleep, but such machines can be just as effective at helping adults. The NSF notes that the constant ambient sound created by white noise machines masks activity both inside and outside the house, helping men and women enjoy more restful sleep.

Draw blinds, shades or curtains. Waking up to sunlight each day might be nice, but that morning sunlight may be interrupting your sleep. Early morning rays from the sun might be triggering your body to wake up before it’s had adequate rest, so make sure blinds, shades and curtains are drawn before going to bed at night so you are not woken up prematurely in the morning.

Making bedrooms more conducive to sleep is one way men and women can improve the quality of their nightly sleep.

Enjoy an eco-friendly autumn

Skip plastic, mass-produced decorations and rely on nature to dress up your home.

TEMECULA – Autumn arrives with cool breezes, awe-inspiring foliage and the hint of holidays on the horizon. Fall is a favorite time of year for many people because the crisp weather motivates people of all ages to enjoy the great outdoors.

Individuals conscious of their carbon footprints can use fall as a time to take inventory of their behaviors and make changes where

necessary. The following are some steps to take right now that fit perfectly with the harvest season.

Shop at a local farm stand.

Take advantage of the many roadside stands that crop up this time of year where you can find bushels of apples, pumpkins, gourds and latesummer vegetables. After a day of sightseeing, visit a farm stand for warm cider and freshly baked

doughnuts. Buying local produce reduces reliance on foreign-shipped foods and other products, while also cutting back on the fuel consumed to get foods from the farm to the table.

Use nature to decorate. Skip plastic, mass-produced decorations and rely on nature to dress up your home. Fill vases with leaves and berries. Place small pumpkins on

Eastern Municipal Water District to host free open house event PERRIS – Eastern Municipal Water District will host a free Open House event, Saturday, Oct. 28, for customers to learn about services and programs offered.

The family-friendly event will be held 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. at EMWD’s main office, 2270 Trumble Road, in Perris.

Guests may tour the water district’s demonstration garden, learn about their water supply and water quality, meet with vendors about water-efficient devices and see some of the heavy equipment fleet up close. Staff will be available to review customer account information and provide information about employment opportunities at with the water district.

“We hope that our customers will visit us and learn about the customer-focused services EMWD provides and how we can partner to further meet their needs,” EMWD President David Slawson said. “EMWD values its partnership with the community, and we hope our customers will come learn more about how EMWD can help them be more efficient with their water use.”

The Open House event will feature hands-on activities for children presented by EMWD’s education program. Water-efficient raffle prizes will be provided throughout the event.

For more information, visit www.emwd.org/openhouse or

call (951) 928-3777, ext. 3430.

Eastern Municipal Water District is the water, wastewater service and recycled water provider to approximately 804,000 people living and working within a 555 square mile service area in western Riverside County.

mantles, and enrich the landscape of your home with vibrantly hued mums and other cool-weather plants. Corn husks and stalks can add harvest flair to front porches.

Twigs nestled and tied together can make interesting table centerpieces.

Create a composting pile. Outdoor chores are easier in cool weather than they are when the mercury rises. Set aside a place in the yard for composting. A healthy compost pile should have roughly two-thirds carbon (brown) materials and one-third nitrogen (green) materials, says EarthEasy.com.

Use those lawn clippings and raked leaves to make compost for spring plantings.

Visit a corn maze. After corn has been harvested, farm owners often use their land for supplemental income. Corn mazes can be simple or complex depending on visitors’ ages. Engage in family bonding outside and turn off electronics in the process.

Bake your own pie. After a funfilled day picking apples at a nearby orchard, head home and use those locally sourced apples to whip up a delicious pie.

Recycle old clothes to dress your scarecrow. Clothing that is not worthy of donation can be transformed into a festive scarecrow just in time for Halloween hijinks. Fill out the body of the scarecrow with newspaper and then add some pieces of straw around the neck, hands and feet.

Host a football party. Watch the game on television or have a pickup game in the yard. Serve finger foods to cut down on the need for plastic or paper plates and flatware.

Purchase a keg of beer from a local brewery to eliminate individual beer cans and bottles. Set out a nonalcoholic punch bowl so the kids can enjoy refreshments, too.

Autumn can be a great time of year to embrace some eco-friendly practices.

Southwest California housing update focuses on Lake Elsinore Paul Bandong PBANDONG@REEDERMEDIA.COM

“California has a shortage of about 1 million homes,” Gene Wunderlich, government affairs director for the Southwest Riverside County Association of Realtors, said in his speech at the Economic Workforce Development Committee lunch held Thursday, Oct. 19. Wunderlich’s address focused on southwest California housing issues, specifically the Lake Elsinore area.

Existing home sales are down 8 percent, but the median price is up 5 percent. The median time on market is down to eight days from 46 days a year ago.

State housing data shows growth, but at a much slower pace – about 1.3 percent from year to year. Lake Elsinore’s sales of single-family residences hit a low in 2007 with only 494 homes sold; a high in 2009 with 1,805 homes sold and is currently

projected at 1,254 sales for the year.

The median sale price for the state is up 7.2 percent from year to year at $565,330. Lake Elsinore hit a high in 2006 with homes selling for $433,996 median price, a low in 2009 at $174,666, which investors took advantage of and has grown 50 percent since then to $352,547, still 19 percent below its peak. The median sale price is up 8 percent from last year. Median prices in surrounding communities have also increased by 7 percent to 9 percent.

Standard sales make up the bulk of sales activity, 93 percent, while the sales rate has increased and prices have increased.

“I don’t see a ‘bubble’ with 5-6 percent sustainable growth and room to grow,” Wunderlich said.

The average house in Lake Elsinore is 2,069 square feet, has four bedrooms and three baths and was built in 1996. The median selling price as of September 2017 was

$359,900; the average selling price was $345,935.

Wunderlich shared his outlook for the future.

There is room for improvement in the unemployment rate, with Riverside County’s 6.5 percent still higher than the state’s 5.1 percent.

Mortgage rates are at their lowest since the election.

“Supply remains an issue,” Wunderlich said. Inventory has dropped 40 percent, while sales have increased 5 percent. The unsold inventory index has dropped from 3.4 months in August 2016 to 2.9 months in August 2017. Six months is considered healthy. Projected housing needs for California are 72,000 short of the 180,000 needed annually.

“We are 1 million homes short of what we need right now,” he said.

“Part of the problem is that many baby boomers haven’t moved since 1999, creating a lack of turnover in the inventory.

“Another big problem is housing affordability is taking it on the chin,” he said.

In Riverside County, only 39 percent of those making the median household income can afford the median-priced home compared to 64 percent five years ago. In Orange County that number is 21 percent; only 12 percent of San Franciscans earning over $200,000 per year can afford the median-priced home.

There is a huge gap in the home ownership rate between California, 53.2, and the rest of the country, 63.5. California is the second lowest amongst all the states, behind only New York.

“Affordability is also an issue for renters,” Wunderlich said. The average asking rent has outpaced the growth in household income.

“California could become a rental state in five years, affecting voting on a number of issues like Prop 13, tax increases, etc.,” he said. “The solution is supply, but community resistance – ‘not in my backyard’ – blocks new housing. Commercial development brings in more local tax revenue. There is limited land to build on. And project reviews and the California Environment Quality Act delay or reduce new housing.

“Building in California is expensive,” he said.

Land costs are two to four times higher on California coasts, affecting housing densities. Building costs – labor, material and government fees – are all higher in California than in other states. A 2012 national survey found that the average development fee levied by California local governments, excluding water-related fees, was $22,000 per single-family home as compared to $6,000 in the rest of the country.

The decreased inventory has

slowed sales growth, 2.7 percent in August 2018, but fueled price growth, up 7.2 percent in August 2017.

Next, Wunderlich addressed the federal political fiscal climate. The economic stimulus package and tax reform is projected to have an impact of $550 billion over the next 10 years, with the possibilities of increase in standard deduction and the elimination of the property tax deduction.

“Higher budget deficits will lead to rising interest rates,” Wunderlich said. “Dismantling the Dodd-Frank Act will allow banks to loosen up lending standards and give buyers more creative mortgage options, but it heightens the risk of having another financial bubble.”

The reform of government-sponsored enterprise could cause a rise in interest rates if the GSE’s were privatized.

Wunderlich identified trade policy, such as tariffs, higher inflation and high interest; healthcare reform; immigration policy, such as H1B Visa program and “policy by tweet” as

Fallbrook Public Utility District asks De Luz farmers to reduce irrigation during aqueduct shutdown FALLBROOK – The Fallbrook Public Utility District has asked its largest agricultural farmers in De Luz to reduce irrigation by 30 percent as it and other water agencies in the county will have some imported water services discontinued, Nov. 3 to Nov. 15.

The utility district’s water wholesaler, the San Diego County Water Authority, will perform maintenance, inspection and repairs on the some of its pipelines, including the one that serves De Luz, during that period.

FPUD has nine storage tanks and imports virtually all its water. During the shutdown, FPUD will be relying mostly on stored water in their tanks to supply the De Luz area. Since the

area is shaped by peaks and slopes, water must be pumped uphill to reach many properties there. During times of heavy watering, episodes of low pressure could occur, and water would need to be rerouted from other parts of the district.

Uncharacteristically, hot weather could intensify the issue, especially if De Luz growers irrigate heavily during this time. If that happens, FPUD may call on residential and other customers to conserve on outdoor watering during the shutdown.

The community will still have water delivered to their homes and can still flush toilets, run dishwashers and washing machines and shower normally.

wild cards. He also questioned the efficacy of monetary policy and the next federal chairperson. He expects US gross domestic product to grow modestly to 2.3 percent from 2.1 percent in 2017.

“California also has special circumstances,” Wunderlich said, citing the unknown impact of the ‘gas tax’ or Senate Bill 1, the fiscal impact of becoming a “sanctuary state,” increases in Development Impact Fees and Transportation Uniform Mitigation Fees, 15housing ‘fix’ bills including a $4 billion housing bond, Senate Bill 2 transfer fees, “affordable” workforce housing, et al, the election of a new governor and the possible continuation of a ‘super-majority.’

Wunderlich said the 2018 statewide forecast of a 0.4 percent increase in the resale of single-family homes or 421,400 homes, a median price increase of 3.4 percent or $556,000, a drop in the housing affordability index to 26 percent and thirty-year fixed rate mortgages at 4.7 percent.

MURRIETA – Children and their parents will have the opportunity to see and learn about many of the wild animals that live in the hills around their homes Saturday, Nov. 4, during the annual Family Wildlife Day at the Santa Rosa Plateau Ecological Reserve in Murrieta. “‘Where Wild Things Are’ at the Santa Rosa Ecological Reserve,” will be presented 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. by Santa Rosa Plateau Nature Education Foundation and Riverside County Regional Park Open Space District at the reserve visitors center, 39400 Clinton Keith Road, in Murrieta.

The cost is $5 per adult and $4 for children, ages 2-12. Tickets and free shuttle parking will only be available on-site the day of the event. In honor of Veterans Day, retired, active and reserve military with ID cards are

admitted free.

Families will have an opportunity to visit with wild animals, live birds, snakes and a variety of mammals.

Designed to inform entertain and inspire children and their families to learn more about the reserve and the natural world, Rob Hicks, longtime Santa Rosa Ecological Reserve interpreter and naturalist, will lead many of the demonstrations.

The day will also include, “bats, bugs and creepy crawly things,” with presentations by Project Wildlife, Sierra Club and University of California. Temecula Valley Astronomers will bring telescopes for observation.

Margie Valdez from the Hidden Valley Nature Center will help children explore fossils and more. The day will include nature walks inside the reserve, crafts, music and games.

The foundation partners with Riverside County Parks to ensure funding for nature education programs for students, grades 3-12, at the reserve, which include Third Grade Title 1 Outreach, fourth grade Trout-in-theClassroom, fifth Grade Seed Bank Studies, Middle School Grassland Restoration and a high school Habitat Studies and Restoration Program.

Serving 10 school district and 9,000 students per school year, the foundation’s mission is to educate and empower youth to appreciate, protect and preserve nature.

Abundance of news means more online content for readers and other tidbits Kim Harris VALLEYEDITOR@REEDERMEDIA.COM

There is so much news happening in our corner of the world that we can’t fit it all in print.

Over the past few weeks as Valley News gives even more coverage of local events, happenings and of course, breaking news, we have noticed an influx of stories on all our beats. We can’t fit it all in the paper, so this week we are posting all our stories online as they unfold. What this means for readers is more relevant news from your favorite local news source.

Readers may notice some stories in print that say, “For the full story, visit www.myvalleynews.com,” directing them to our website to get complete details. Likewise, those

who faithfully obtain their news on our website may see a tagline on stories that says, “For the full story, see next week’s edition of Valley News, available on a newsstand near you.”

So why do we direct readers to more than one product? It’s simple really, we want to make sure our readers are getting the news they want in the timeliest manner possible. By utilizing both myvalleynews.com as well as our print edition, we can do just that, provide the news that readers care about in a convenient and prompt way, making them aware of everything happening in the communities we cover.

In this day and age where so many people are looking for compelling stories to read and news

they can use, we know we have to utilize all avenues available to us, this diligence includes both print and online versions of Valley News.

It has always been the goal of Valley News to be residents’ go-to source for news and information.

Sharing stories in print, or on the web, allows us to continue with our mission in a more efficient manner, while still providing readers with the content they have come to expect from our award-winning newspaper.

In addition to Valley News’ effort to push the news out to readers in a timelier manner, you may also notice a few other changes on our website. More advertising comes to mind when I talk about changes.

While for some this change may be

a distraction, I assure you that those advertising dollars are necessary to keep Reeder Media and Valley News growing, something I know many readers appreciate.

Speaking of growing, did you know that Valley News and Reeder Media are growing by leaps and bounds? That’s no easy feat in the world of newspapers, but it’s something that we take seriously.

As the advertising and news landscape continues to change, so do we. In addition to web and print advertising, we now offer digital media marketing and a slew of other products designed to help business owners be successful in their calling. For more information on all that Reeder Media and Valley News has to offer, visit www. reedermedia.com. It’s all super-

exciting stuff, to be sure.

On another note, Halloween is coming next week, so I just want to remind everyone to be safe when driving the streets as the little ghouls and goblins are out for their annual dash for massive stockpiles of candy. Remember, sometimes the little ones get excited and forget to look both ways when crossing the street, so please keep an eye out for them. Valley News wants everyone to have a safe and enjoyable holiday and exercising caution on the roadway will help to achieve this goal.

The staff at Valley News and Reeder Media wishes you all the happiest of Halloweens, and remember, it’s only my opinion!

Blotter

Fire forces closure of highway near San Jacinto SAN JACINTO – A wind-driven brush fire that erupted Monday, Oct. 23, just north of San Jacinto charring 50 acres within a couple of hours and prompting the closure of a highway before it was partially contained.

The non-injury “Gilman Fire”

was reported about 10:30 a.m. along state Route 79, just north of Gilman Springs Road, according to the Riverside County Fire Department.

An agency spokeswoman said 16 engine crews and eight hand crews, with just over 200 firefighters, deployed to the brusher, which was

50 percent contained by 1:20 p.m. and not threatening homes or other structures in the rural space.

Four air tankers and three waterdropping helicopters were making runs on the blaze as it spread in 40 mph winds, feeding on extremely dry vegetation, according to reports

from the scene.

The California Highway Patrol shut down both the north- and southbound sides of the 79 – the primary travel corridor linking Beaumont and San Jacinto – as a safety precaution. However, by 1:10 p.m., the northbound side of the

highway was re-opened to traffic.

The CHP said the flames started on the northbound side of the highway and jumped to the other side less than 10 minutes later.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Tow truck driver killed, woman arrested in suspected DUI crash in Temecula Alex Groves AGROVES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

A tow truck driver was killed Friday evening, Oct. 20, after he pulled over to the right shoulder of an off-ramp on Interstate 15 in Temecula to help a motorist and was struck by a suspected drunken driver, according to the California

Highway Patrol.

Danika L. McGetrick, 19, was arrested on suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated, driving under the influence causing injury or death and driving with a blood alcohol content of .08 or more. She was booked into the Cois M. Byrd Detention Center in French Valley

and remained there Saturday morning with bail set at $75,000, online jail records show.

The incident happened about 11:35 p.m. on the Temecula Parkway off-ramp of southbound I-15. A 28-year-old man from Wildomar, an employee of DJ’s towing, had been called by AAA to help a motorist whose vehicle

had become disabled, a CHP news release said.

The 2016 Kia Optima being driven by McGetrick, sideswiped the disabled vehicle, struck the tow truck driver and struck the back of the tow truck, the release said. The truck driver was thrown onto the bed of the tow truck from the force of the crash, according to officials.

He was transported to Inland Valley Medical Center in Wildomar, where he died from his injuries.

The driver of the disabled vehicle and the driver’s passenger were uninjured. They remained on scene and provided a statement to the CHP, officials said. The tow truck driver’s name was not identified pending notification of next of kin.

on suspicion of vehicle burglary, credit card fraud and possessing stolen property while she was visiting the Southwest Justice Center, a courthouse in French Valley. for something unrelated to the burglaries police reports said. She was booked in next door to the Cois M. Byrd Detention Center with bail set at $90,000; she remained there Thursday night.

The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department and Murrieta Police Department realized they were looking for the same suspect after comparing thefts that had happened in their respective areas, according to a Riverside County sheriff’s news release.

They also learned that the person had been using credit cards stolen during the burglaries at nearby

businesses, officials said.

After arresting Fiechter, deputies found additional evidence implicating her involvement in burglaries and the use of stolen credit cards, according to the release.

Sheriff’s officials are asking anyone with information about the burglaries to contact Detective Darin Gray from the Temecula station at (951) 696-3000.

Man and woman killed in crash west of Murrieta are identified Alex Groves AGROVES@REEDERMEDIA.COM

The man and woman who were killed when their car traveled off a roadway, crashed into a gate and caught fire Monday, Oct. 16, were identified Thursday.

They were identified as Dennis Carver, 52, and Lorraine Carver,

53, both of Murrieta, a Riverside County coroner’s release said.

Both were pronounced dead at the scene of the crash on the 20000 block of Avenida De Arboles, according to the release.

Dennis Carver was driving his 2010 Mercedes north on Avenida De Arboles, just north of Palo Alto lane, when the Mercedes entered

a curve and went off the road, according to a California Highway Patrol news release.

The car crashed into a metal speaker intercom and two brick pillars and caught fire, the release said.

The California Highway Patrol Temecula office is investigating the crash.

Blaze blackens land south of Winchester Sudoku answers from page C-4

WINCHESTER – A wildfire that broke out Monday, Oct. 23, just south of Winchester scorched about 7 acres before it was contained.

The non-injury “Patterson Fire” was reported about 4 p.m. in the area of Domenigoni Parkway and Patterson Avenue, less than a mile northwest of Diamond Valley Lake, according to the Riverside County Fire Department.

An agency spokeswoman said seven engine crews, a truck company and three hand crews – numbering about 80 personnel – deployed to the fire, supported by a waterdropping helicopter.

Firefighters battling stiff winds completely contained the brusher in just over an hour.

No homes or other structures were damaged.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.
