City dives into 50th anniversary preparations
Turning 50 is a big deal, and Carpinteria plans to do it in style. Incorporated on Sept. 28, 1965, the City of Carpinteria will celebrate the milestone anniversary from the start to the close of 2015. A n e w l y Carpinteria’s first City Hall was formed com- located at 4859 Carpinteria Ave. mittee, chaired by City Councilmen Wade Nomura and Gregg Carty, recently bit into the big task of preparing for the 50th anniversary. Carpinteria’s existing annual events will be given a commemorative twist, according to committee member Mike Lazaro, who said, “Why reinvent the wheel?” At this early stage in the process, the committee aims to hold the main event on the Thursday evening preceding the regular Friday opening of the California Avocado Festival. Downtown Linden Avenue would close one day earlier than usual, and all of Carpinteria would be invited on Oct. 1 to celebrate the city’s anniversary with festivities focused around local foods, local bands and local nonprofits, Lazaro said. Additionally, the 2015 calendar will be peppered with smaller events and add-ons to existing events. The committee is considering screening 1965 films at Plaza Playhouse Theater, adding a 1965 classic car section to Rods and Roses Car Show and kicking off the yearlong celebration with an anniversary-themed Annual Community Awards Banquet by the Carpinteria Chamber of Commerce. New events under consideration include an oldfashioned community get-together with a fireworks show in honor of the Fourth of July. Lazaro said he has his eye on Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium to host the festivities, which would feature family games and food booths leading up to the pyrotechnics. Committee members include Pat Kistler and Lynda Lang of the Chamber of Commerce, Larry Nimmer, John Wullbrandt and Roxanne Nomura. Projects in their infancy include designing a logo, securing sponsorships, ordering merchandise and creating a video that ties together then and now. Another element the group is working toward is the establishment of a master community calendar. The calendar would help to keep all community events from conflicting and clearly map out the activities planned around the anniversary. ––Lea Boyd

Ian Mather of Ball Busters slides safely across home plate before Nicole Garibay of Redeemer Church could apply the tag. Although Mather scored, Redeemer got the last laugh in its 2519 victory over first place Ball Busters of the Mountain Division. The 2014 Carpinteria Adult Co-ed Softball League is nearing its end with Ball Busters holding on to the top spot in its division with a 7-2 record and Cabo’s in the lead in the Pacific Division with an 10-0 mark. The top four squads in each division will compete in playoffs starting in September. For complete results and standings, see page 16.

“Our City Council is not the forum to pursue partisan politics or personal agendas. The best Not one individual stepped forward this summer to that I see is that nobody came forward. And to hold out decisions result from an open-minded approach run against the three City Council incumbents up for a potential $10,000 with the assumption that we may get and respect for all opinions, while keeping for City Council somebody to do a write-in seems counterproductive to election this fall. As a result, the council voted unani-Carpinteria’s core interests at heart.”

mously on Aug. 18 to cancel the costly election and reappoint the candidates already seated. The incumbents who sought another term, Brad Stein, Gregg Carty and Al Clark, expressed some trepidation in making a decision that could be considered “short circuiting democracy,” as Clark put it, but ultimately decided that the $10,000 savings to the city was worth the small risk of a write-in candidate seeking a place on the council. Councilman Wade Nomura noted that the election and its filing window were noticed publicly. “The action
what we’re trying to as far as fiduciary responsibilities to the city,” he said before making a motion to cancel the Nov. 4 election for city council. City Clerk Fidela Garcia reported that no one she queried among longtime city staff members could remember a write-in candidate ever having won an election, nor could any Santa Barbara County staff remember it happening at the county level. In 1986, the Carpinteria City Council was faced with a similar situation and also canceled the election.

Since CEC and CVA launched the Solarize Carpinteria Valley program in May, more than 20 South Coast homeowners have switched to solar through Solarize Carpinteria.
Solarize Carpinteria continues into September
As the summer sun keeps shining, so do the solar savings from the Solarize Carpinteria Valley program. Discounted solar installations, set to expire, have been extended to Sept. 13. Brought by nonprofits Community Environmental Council and Carpinteria Valley Association, the program aims to streamline the conversion to solar and make it affordable through group purchasing. A panel of community members and solar experts vetted and selected two solar installers, SunRun and Allen Energy, as partners for the program. Jefferson Litten, Solarize Program Manager at the CEC, stated, “The Solarize team also serves as a resource along the way to answer any questions and make the transition to solar as smooth as possible.” To find out more, visit SolarizeCarpinteria.org or call 963-0583 x105.

Small town report: canary comes home
About two weeks ago I was tending to the birds in my outdoor aviary (I have 14 canaries) when I noticed that one had escaped! He is a red factor, black crested canary, my best singer, and there he was outside the aviary perched on a chair. I quickly closed everything up and went after him with my net. He dodged me and flew up to the neighbor’s roof. Then I lost track of him. I walked around the block, calling, “Rudy, Rudy.” I think I heard him call back, but couldn’t be sure, so I left a dish of seed outside near the aviary figuring he’d return. Then I went to the Ark to buy more birdseed and told them my story. I was afraid a crow or hawk would get him, but they assured me that canaries can dodge predators. Then I went to Lemos to pick up wild birdseed and told them my story. “Oh,” said the Lemos guy, “a bird like that flew in our front door when I opened this morning.” He said he’s never seen a bird like that, orange with a black crest, and he took a

photo. He showed me the photo, and, yep, it was Rudy for sure. “The woman was here who does tooth brushing for dogs, and she said she would take him.” He gave me her card. She lived in Paso Robles. So my sister, who was with me, called and the woman was working in Santa Barbara but would be back in Carpinteria that evening. My sister met the woman in Lemos’ parking lot, moved Rudy from the borrowed cage to his old cage and brought him home. Hats off to Lemos and the woman who brushes dogs’ teeth. Thanks to them, Rudy is now safely home in the aviary, probably boasting of his adventure.

Change is needed
I have never voted for President Obama. I don’t believe in his views of what America is or should be. I did see a possibility that his election might “bring the country together,” but it is my honest belief that he has failed miserably in this and in practically every other area where presidential leadership is important. Yes, I realize this letter lacks specifics, but understandable word limits exist. Oversimplifying perhaps, President Obama’s famous comment, “You didn’t build that,” says a myriad of things with which I have total disagreement. Blustering and complaining serves little purpose. I only hope that everyone, regardless of political belief, will study the past six years and ask if this is really
the America you want it to be. If after serious review you conclude it is, that’s fine. If you conclude otherwise then take constructive action and attempt to change things. I want my children and grandchildren to believe that people with initiative and a willingness to work are keys to individual success and national productivity. Jimmy Carter, in my opinion, was an ineffective president, but he never promoted the feeling of individual helplessness I see coming from President Obama. I respect opposing views and comments. I only ask that Michael Rupert not write statements that are not true. In a recent Coastal View News letter Mr. Rupert stated he learned from my previous letter that folks in Kentucky loved Obamacare. Fact: My letter never mentioned Kentucky or any Obamacare-loving group. In another letter Mr. Rupert stated he was happy that I had stopped listening to right wing radio talk shows. Fact: My listening/viewing habits haven’t changed one iota in recent years. I listen to a variety of thoughts and opinions. Mr. Rupert, present your criticisms, but please don’t write things that are blatantly false.

Imagine the possibilities.
Thank you, Ms. Thorn
Thank you, Diana Thorn, for putting in print (“Where is President Obama?” CVN, Aug. 14) about our crumbling country, what all sane Americans, if you’re not on welfare, are thinking. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. If governor Rick Perry can be indicted for abuse of power, wow, what should happen to Obama? Impeachment doesn’t even seem like enough. Talk about abuse of power, Hilary Clinton for president? Gimme a break. She couldn’t even cut it as secretary of state. What a joke.

Different faces of drought I just returned from a two-week trip up to the Central Valley and the Sierras. Reservoirs, orchards and fields looked as bad or worse than they do down here. The almond trees along I-5 were positively peaked. You can tell by the color of the leaves when trees are water stressed; they take on a kind of pallor. The same with the pistachios growing on the west edge of the valley. New orchards, row after row of little stick trees, were clearly doomed. But, hey, the California aqueduct was still ferrying water south. Maybe a few farmers got to stick their straws in, but I’m betting a lot of it made it clear down to the pumps and penstocks that shoot water up and over the mountains to L.A. The L.A. Times recently put out a call for poets to submit “opinionated poems” for their editorial page to be published Aug. 31. I wrote a poem about water. Don’t know if it will get published; their automatic email said they had no idea there were so many opinionated poets out there. But having traveled several hundred miles up and down the state, I had formed a few strong impressions about water. I-5 is one of my least favorite highways, but it’s fast, and when the outside temp is hovering around 100 degrees, you just want to get there. We turned in at all the rest stops, mainly for the benefit of our little pooch, Gracie, but they were more dead zones than oases, grass and shrubs dry as toast. Gracie was as anxious to get back in the car as we were. It’s when you get off the big roads that you really see the drought’s effects. Orchards plowed under, tree roots thrust up at dry sky, fields gone fallow. Sacramento bills itself as the “city of trees.” And it is; the place is practically a forest. My brother lives in the suburb of Fair Oaks, and I can hardly find the landmarks to his house anymore for all the mature trees. A lot of them are redwoods, poor things! If the drought continues, they’ll be cutting those down for decks. In fact, the whole citified forest will be unsustainable if the rains don’t come again—in my opinion. We skirted south Lake Tahoe (a rushhour creep for miles on a summer weekend) to get to friends’ house in Graeagle, Plumas County. The 4,500-foot elevation there didn’t moderate the temperature much, and most days hovered around
90. The middle fork of the Feather River was only steps away, but running so low swimming was out of the question. Lots of streams join the Feather River as it tumbles down the mountain toward capture behind the Oroville Dam. We took the long winding road down the Feather River Canyon, getting all wistful about bygone days when Western Pacific ran passenger trains through the canyon. Now only freights rattle along that gorgeous stretch. We passed four dams and four power plants along the way, finally arriving at Lake Oroville, which was a sad sight. A few houseboats bobbed on a puddle far down from the water lines marking previous levels like a series of dirty bathtub rings. Down in the valley, the fields were brittle dry, and the temperature in Oroville was 106. But groves of olive trees flourished outside of town, the orchard floors green. Black cattle cropped the grass in one orchard—full exploitation of available resources, I guess. And maybe there should be more of that—sheep in orchards, goats in vineyards. Just south of Oroville was an arresting sight: rice, brilliant green in standing water, stalked by white herons. A little farther on, sprinklers arcing over alfalfa fields. Rice and alfalfa, really? It’s a matter of “first rights.” That water district gets to skim Delta water, lots of it, off the top. Makes you shake your head at the state’s distribution system, which is largely non-existent. Up to now water allotment across the state has been pretty much a free for all. The city of Modesto has a venerable arch across the old main road leading into town. It reads “Water, Wealth, Contentment, Health.” I guess with the Tuolumne River flowing through the city’s middle, those early residents thought they were in permanent clover. But the sentiment still rings true. Wealth, contentment and health are pretty much out of reach without water. One good thing: Dripping eves, the gift of fog.

Drought triggers new conservation measures, groundwater concerns Submitted by Carpinteria VaLLey Water diStriCt
unprecedented drought continues
Nearly 80 percent of California, including the Carpinteria Valley and Lake Cachuma, is shown by the U.S. Drought Monitor to be in an extreme (D3) or exceptional (D4) drought. Beginning on Oct. 1, the district along with the other four Cachuma Project water agencies (Montecito, Santa Barbara, Goleta and Santa Ynez) is reducing its annual Lake Cachuma entitlement by 55 percent. This will help prolong the viability of Lake Cachuma, the district’s major source of water supply, if the coming year’s wet season does not yield enough rain.
Conservation is now required
Except where necessary to address an immediate health and safety need or to comply with a term or condition of a permit issued by a state or federal agency, new state law now mandates the following water use prohibitions for the use of potable water: • Watering outdoor landscapes that causes runoff to adjacent property, non-irrigated areas, private and public walkways, roadways, parking lots or structures • Washing motor vehicles with a running hose without a shut off nozzle • Hosing down sidewalks and driveways • Running fountains that do not recirculate water The new law allows, and the district is considering, the imposition of fines of up to $500 per day for customers who fail to observe these mandatory prohibitions. The district has also temporarily adjusted tiered water rates for all customers to help pay for emergency drought related expenses as well as shift more costs to high water users.
Get a rebate
Homes, restaurants, schools and businesses can receive up to $200 for high efficiency toilets, up to $300 for high efficiency or waterless urinals and up to $400 for high efficiency clothes washers. Contact Rhonda at the District: 684-2816 x116.
Local groundwater receives scrutiny
As the drought continues, the district is depending more on its local groundwater supplies to offset reductions in Cachuma and State Water supplies. Groundwater levels throughout the district are slowly dropping due to a multi-year lack of rainfall replenishment that began in 2007. Timely questions recently have been raised about the adequacy of the district’s knowledge of and management of the Carpinteria Groundwater Basin by a hydrologist representing the Carpinteria Valley Association. The district is in the process of responding interactively to the several technical questions. Following are some general groundwater questions addressed in detail in a document entitled “Q&A – Carpinteria Groundwater Basin” posted at cvwd.net: • Does the District have a good process in place producing adequate information to monitor and assess the water
quality and water level conditions of the Carpinteria Groundwater Basin? If no or yes, why? • Is the Carpinteria Groundwater Basin in long-term overdraft? If no or yes, why? • What should the district do if long-term overdraft appears to be occurring? • What is the main threat to the Carpinteria Groundwater Basin? Why? What should the district be doing to address this threat? • What should the district do if seawater intrusion is detected? • Are there other threats to water quality in the basin and if so, what should the district be doing about them? • Does the district have control over private pumping? • What is the value of the District’s Groundwater Model and what level of confidence does it provide?
Locked and loaded
A woman complaining that her lockbox had been swiped from her truck on Aragon Drive on Aug. 11 said she suspected her kleptomaniac roommates were behind the theft. The box, which she said would be impenetrable without a key and combination, contained $80 and a bottle of codeine pills. She had searched through her house to see if she could uncover the box, but it appeared the roommates, whom she said have stolen from her many times, must have stashed it elsewhere. She needed to report the crime because the doctor would not prematurely refill the prescription without a deputy’s note.
Officers agreed that the vehicle was listed as stolen, a confusing designation given that the registered owner stood before them. She explained that she had parked the car in Riverside while she was in the state of Georgia. An acquaintance reported to her that the car had vanished, so the car owner reported it stolen. The vehicle mysteriously reappeared; however, the owner never called authorities to have it removed from the stolen list. As soon as the deputy established the facts and returned possession of the vehicle to the rightful owner, the repo man pulled out his paperwork explaining the repossession. He then hooked the vehicle up to his truck in order to tow it to the agency in Ventura.
Tow truck filibuster
Cat burglar
Deputies intervened when a repo man showed up to tow a vehicle on Casitas Pass Road on Aug. 11. The vehicle had been reported stolen in Riverside, but its owner was with the vehicle as the repo man attempted to take it away. The woman who owned the vehicle, 45, was with the tow truck driver when officers arrived to settle the score.
It’s a Gift That Gives Both Ways Consider a Gift Annuity
Customer input appreciated
Customer participation in district decision-making is always helpful, and during this extraordinary drought even more so. Please also consider attending or tuning in to the district’s next televised (Channel 21) board meeting on Aug. 27 at 5:30 p.m. if you have questions or concerns. The district’s website also remains an ongoing source of information about the drought and conservation tips, as well as board meeting dates. The district acknowledges and thanks its many customers who have embraced new conservation measures and urges you to continue. You may call the district at 684-2816 x116 for a free water use check-up and advice on how to reduce your water use.

Residents of a Holly Avenue apartment reported a neighbor had threatened violence on their pregnant daughter on Aug. 7. The residents had not witnessed the alleged crime, and the alleged victim was not there to recap the finer points of the threats. Deputies interviewed the accused woman, 51, who said she had heard neighbors yelling obscenities about a cat. She went to their apartment to make sure all was copacetic and discovered that her cat was the source of all the commotion. The cat had entered a screenless window at the neighbor’s apartment and was apparently an unwelcome guest. The neighbor attempted to retrieve the feline and became engaged in a verbal entanglement with the pregnant woman in the process. She denied uttering any threats in the mutual battle of oratorical bombs. The kernel of information that troubled the residents and parents of the threatened pregnant woman was that the accused threatener had been the one who removed the screens from the window through which the cat gained entry. The accused did not dispute the fact that she had removed her neighbors’ screen, but she explained the removal was to repair the screens. Deputies did not recommend charges against any of the involved parties.

Cate students go abroad for Surf and Service
Eight Cate School students spent a chunk of their summer chipping in by chipping away barnacles at the Peruvian fishing and surfing village of Lobitos. The “voluntourism“ summer trip involved the students with the economy of the local fishermen, for whom the students scraped boat surfaces clean, lathered fresh coats of paint and added individualized designs. They also sanded and painted the main dock, where fishermen load their daily catch. The students were escorted by photography teacher Monica Furmanski and husband Matthew and collaborated with Peru’s Markham College students in their efforts. Furmanski stated, “Despite language and cultural barriers, the students from the two schools and the locals found a way to connect and develop friendships. Their collaborative spirit invigorated the project and kept everyone motivated.” Cate students Hannah Bowlin, Porter Brown, Xandrine Griffin, Christian Herman, Eva Herman, Will Hogue, Liana Schmidt and Colin Stevens went on the trip.

Amrit Joy’s Hints for Healthy & Happy Living Satsang ~ “Holy Company”
The yogic premise of Satsang, or “Holy Company,” is about who you choose to spend your time with. So often we hang out with people who we don’t really like, who are not exactly on our wavelength or who afterwards we feel drained from. The more “yogic” of a lifestyle we live, the more we get in touch with allowing ourselves to carefully choose how we spend our time and with whom. Learning how to discern and when to say “no” is a process. As we realize that our time is precious, we want to spend that time in activities and with people who enrich and support our lives. As we grow and mature yogically some old relationships no longer serve. We are not to judge, but to just bless and gently release. It is better to be alone and quiet so our soul can be nurtured. Then, like-minded people will be attracted to your energy and you to theirs. You then move into Satsang where you truly feel at one with others and you are energized after spending time together. Amrit Joy is a certified Hatha & Kundalini Yoga instructor. She has been practicing and teaching yoga since 1976. Amrit offers 7 ongoing group yoga classes open to all levels here in Carpinteria. Private instruction in yoga and meditation is also available by appointment. For info call Amrit Joy at 745-1707.

YOUTH MOVEMENT 2014 Warriors look to capitalize on speed of juniors, leadership of seniors BY PETER DUGRÉ
The 2014 edition of Carpinteria High School football looks nothing like the 2013 edition. A full 20 seniors from last year’s high-octane squad marched across the graduation stage in June, leaving their roster spots to a junior class that will shape its own destiny starting with the opening game at Santa Ynez on Sept. 5. “We need young guys to mature quickly and play smart,” commented coach Ben Hallock. He’s counting on the handful of senior leaders carrying over their experiences from last year’s playoff team (8-4) to bring a seasoned character to the young squad. A pair of linebackers, Greg Elizarraras and Jorge Arroyo, seniors with three varsity seasons each under their belts, are team captains. And fellow senior Gabriel Zapian-Ybarra and junior Jose “Pancho” Sanchez, both linemen, carry the title of team leaders in attempting to prepare the squad to face the new-look Tri-Valley League. TVL has shed Oak Park but still contains Bishop Diego and Nordhoff high schools, the other two recently dominant teams that made deep playoff runs last season. Nordhoff has two consecutive CIF titles. Competition will remain stiff in TVL, which is down to four teams, the other being Fillmore High School, which bumped up from Frontier League and appears formidable. The Warriors will play Oak Park in a non-league match up, the home opener on Sept. 19. The quarterback position, which had been occupied by all-everything Ian Craddock for three years, now falls to junior Jimmy Graves, a lengthy and athletic successor who led the junior varsity squad to an 8-2 record last season. Junior Rayshaun Moore, a newcomer who cut his varsity teeth on the basketball court, will also be in the running for quarterback. Hallock said that most encouraging is the agility and speed of the junior athletes. In addition to Graves and Moore, Timmy Jimenez, a junior who started on varsity as a sophomore last year, will play running back. “We’re going to identify our strengths and play to those,” Hallock said. “We’ll need to take advantage of our athleticism.” It seems just about everyone on the squad falls into the category of linebacker or defensive back. Juniors Oscar Garcia, Richie Gallardo, Jason Martinez, Fernando Martinez, Aaron Vargas, Guillermo Tavira and Rudy Beltran are among the speedy young players who hope to disrupt opponents with sheer energy. On the offensive side of the ball, Hallock said the team is endowed with several players, including many of the aforementioned fleet-footed juniors, who

shift into multiple positions and mix-up formations. “We have some guys who are fairly utilitarian. They can play in several different places,” Hallock said. A new wrinkle in the play book will likely be a split backfield, but the signature Warrior option offense is still Plan A in attacking opponents. The Warriors have the luxury of playing seven games before the three-game league season begins when Nordhoff visits Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium on Oct. 24. “Every week we’ll get better. By the time we get to league, we’ve got to be ready to play,” Hallock said. Hallock will make the calls on defense this season. Defensive coordinator Rick Candaele, who had called plays for several years, moved on to Ramona High School. Longtime assistants Henry Gonzales, the offensive coordinator, and Van Latham remain on board. Even if the Warriors can emerge from TVL with a playoff spot, the playoff race has stiffened greatly, because of realignment playoff divisions this season. Due to recent successes in Northwest Division, mainly by Bishop and Nordhoff, the TVL will join larger schools in its playoff grouping, many of which have populations of 2,000 or more students, to CHS’s 600. Teams like Thousand Oaks, Palmdale and Arroyo Grande high schools will stand in the way of whichever TVL squads advance. The Warriors are a blank slate. Hallock and the 2014 squad hope that speed kills, and the young squad on the field can impose its style and pace on opponents.

McIntyre hooks a 105-pounder
Calling it a once-in-a-lifetime catch, Barbara McIntyre recently reeled in a 105-pound blue fin tuna off the coast of San Diego and Mexico. In all, pulling the mammoth fish on board took an hour and a half. McIntyre, husband Biff, and other anglers boarded the Apollo at Seaforth Landing in San Diego for the trip. Barbara used a seeker 1x3 rail rod, Canyon EX-16 light trolling reel, 100# braid, 60# mono top shot and 40# flouro and live sardine on a weighted plonker rig. Her equipment and strategy of sinking her bait paid off. “Sometimes the big guys like to hang out a little below the surface,” she said. Barbara’s haul was by far the largest catch of the day, and a rare 100-plus pounder for Pacific waters. SUBMITTED PHOTO

Lifeguards run from Carpinteria to Ventura State Beach
If there was ever any doubt that area lifeguards can cover their sandy territory in response to emergencies, lay those worries to rest. A group of 17 lifeguards from Carpinteria and Ventura agencies trotted along the beach 18-plus miles on Aug. 11 for The Quest run, an annual event. The group departed from Carpinteria State Beach at 5 a.m. and all arrived at San Buenaventura State Beach before 8 a.m. “There’s no better way to see that stretch of coastline and to meet fellow lifeguards and share the experience,” commented James Bray, State Park Peace Officer and organizer for The Quest. Nico Navarro of the Ventura State Parks crew finished in a course best 2:06:46. From among Carpinteria City Lifeguards, brothers Julian and Oscar Desario ran together to finish in 2:31:30 for sixth place. Also representing city guards were Chuck Graham, Brianna Stout and Allie Skiba. Typically to traverse the coastline, runners have to enter the water and swim, but this year’s King Tide, which accompanied the full moon, allowed the runners to complete the course with only a need to wade for short portions of the course.
Graham completes SB 9 Trails
Local adventurer Chuck Graham recently conquered the Santa Barbara 9 Trails race, a 35-mile trek that covers all of the front country trails between Jesusita in Santa Barbara and Romero, at the Carpinteria end of Montecito. In all, there is 10,000 miles in elevation gain. Of 70 runners to start the race, only 43 finished. Graham finished in 13 hours and 15 minutes after making all the cutoff times over the course. The race started at 6:15 a.m. near the Cater Water plant in Santa Barbara and runners had to make it to the base of Romero Canyon trail by 11 a.m. in order to qualify to turn around and head back to SB.

What we can’t live without
Spotlight on Megan Garcia By KiM Drain
Megan Garcia has a lot to look forward to when school resumes next week. The incoming senior will be taking the helm of the popular Future Farmers of America chapter as president, propelling the club forward to another successful year. She’ll be considering college options. And she will get a chance to reconnect with old friends and make new ones. But first, Garcia had to say good bye to one very special, very large friend—her steer, Diesel. Garcia, a four-year FFA member, has spent her summer, and many months prior, training and caring for Diesel, one of the largest steers to come out of the FFA program. When Garcia showed (and auctioned) Diesel at the Ventura County Fair this month, it was the culmination of a lot of hard work and a bittersweet send-off. “Saying good-bye to Bubba (Diesel’s nickname) will be incredibly hard,” Garcia said before the big day. “Working with him over 10 months has made me love him more and more every day.” However, there are many more exciting challenges and lofty goals ahead for this talented and self-assured young woman. Occupation: Carpinteria High School student-athlete; FFA president; Jr. Fair Board member. How long have you been in Carpinteria? I was born and raised here. I am the daughter of Sergio and Sara Garcia, and I have two younger siblings, Emily and Hunter, who love and support me very much. How did you get involved with FFA? I initially got involved because I wanted to raise livestock. Once I joined, I realized there were endless activities to do and get involved with. What do you foresee for the club in 2014-2015? My goal this year for the FFA program is to get the whole community involved and raise awareness about what we do. I want to open people’s eyes and show them what agriculture is all about. I want to point out how it is much more than just raising animals or growing plants. What is the best thing about being an FFA member? The best thing about working with animals is the amount of responsibility you gain, the valuable experience and the bond created between you and your animal. You can learn more in FFA than you would in any classroom. What will be your biggest challenge this year? Balancing all of my activities is always a challenge. However, I make it work! I have to find time for my homework, soccer and FFA. What is your dream job of the future? I see myself pursuing a career in the cattle industry. I want to raise and sell cattle. How do you like to spend your free time? I enjoy camping, hunting, riding dirt bikes and spending time with my family. What is the best advice you have ever received? The best advice I received was from (ag teacher/FFA Director) John Avila. He said, “You can never cheat agriculture.” Describe yourself in one word: A leader.
Sunday evening, almost dusk, and we get the awful phone call—the one no one ever wants to answer. A man digging with a backhoe on the property next to ours punctured our water line and created a fountain of water that turned into a stream that turned into a river. He didn’t know where the shut-off valve was located, he was running out of light, and he had a big mud hole he MELINDA had to dig out before he could even think about fixing the leak. Several hours later the water leak was fixed and order restored—at least that’s what we thought and our household went to bed, teeth brushed, faces washed and toilets flushed. For some reason my son couldn’t sleep and got up around 3:30 a.m. for a drink. Through the open windows, he thought he could hear running water. In the dark with only his cell phone light (believe me we do have flashlights), he found the backflow device spewing water at the edge of our property. After trying about 16 things to fix the leak in the dark, he finally went to the meter and just turned off all our water, and then he came in to wake us up to inform us of this new disaster—how thoughtful of him. Now, do you know how much sleep I actually got between 3:30 and dawn? Do you realize how many lists of things to do I made in my head? After counting down from 100 over and over and over again, I finally pulled out my Kindle and just read, trying to forget about how bad my next day was going to be. The man who broke the pipe in the first place came over immediately in the morning, very sorry for what had happened. He called a local expert on backflow repair and was waiting for a return call. Once back in my house, I realized there would be no morning shower, and I had to find a container of bottled water just to brush my teeth. I didn’t want to waste the little water I had on making coffee so that had to wait. I could not make breakfast because without washing off every dirty dish there would be enough ants in my kitchen to carry out the cereal boxes. There would be no cleaning of bathrooms, washing of clothes or watering of plants. Later when it was suggested that the backflow repair might have to wait until tomorrow, I had visions of kidnapping a repairman or checking into our town’s best hotel while making the backhoe user pick up the tab. I might be able to go one
day without a shower, but two days is cruel and unusual punishment. Finally the men did what men do best—quit blaming each other and got to work fixing the problem. Seems when the sprinklers went on early in the morning, grit and debris from the pipe repair were carried through the backflow device and jammed up one of the valves causing water to spill out WITTWER the safety release. Working together with a few salty words being thrown about, the men flushed out the backflow, bled the tank and equalized the pressure. Finally the water went through the backflow device on through the pipes to our house. A firm believer in Murphy’s law, I walked all over our yard and around the house checking every hose bib and pipe I could think of just to make sure there were no more precious drips lost. I had been without water slightly over eight hours, but it seemed like forever and a day. I immediately filled the water bottles, flushed the toilets and luxuriated with the joy of clean hands. Lake Casitas, where our water comes from, is only half full, or perhaps it is more to the point to think of it half empty. We are in a drought, we need rain, and just maybe we will learn to give up our lawns. I can’t imagine not having running water in our home or only having the water on one or two hours a day. I barely survived eight hours without water and am sure trauma would have resulted if for some reason my water problems had taken longer to fix. I might not like it, but I could exist without the internet or my car or maybe even electricity. But I need my water; I need it every day; I need it just to survive. Maybe I could shorten my showers a minute or two. Or maybe native plants would look OK planted in our front yard. I know the dishwasher and clothes washer need to be full when used, and my driveway will never see a hose. The old adage, you only truly appreciate something once it’s lost may be true, but I certainly do not want to face a time when wars are fought over water—even if it’s only a war with the man wielding a backhoe.

CVN does Hollister on hogs
Jeff Moorhouse and Alicia Tucciarone pointed the steel horse north for an Independence Day ride to the Hollister Motorcycle Rally. Considered the birthplace of the American biker persona, Hollister was the site of a biker gathering in 1947 that escalated until police crashed the party in riot gear. That clash inspired the film “The Wild One,” starring Marlon Brando, and cemented the biker image into the popular imagination. This year, over 50 bands, 150,000 bikers and one Coastal View News convened on Hollister to celebrate the motorcycle on July 4.
CVN shines on Hawaii
According to the Brainerds and Thompsons, for the sake of delivering Coastal View News to Hawaii, the clans overcame much adversity. “For the sole glory of Carpinteria, the families braved the Napili Shores to bring CVN to the natives of Maui. The periodical faced many challenges en route: a vast ocean, constant 82 degree temperatures, 10-to-15 mph trade winds and treacherous rainbows that would seemingly appear at a mere toilet flush. The survivors pictured are Sammi and Cassidy Thompson and Mason and Jackson Brainerd.”

Swill times in Ireland
You know the saying, “When in Ireland.” Tasha and Jan Brooks put forth a valiant effort when in Cork, Ireland, home to 365 pubs, including The Corner House. They noted there’s a pub for each day of the year. Unfortunately—or perhaps fortunately—they were unable to order a pint in each watering hole.
