Charity Horse Show expected to attract 500 equestrians In this Olympic year, people don’t have to travel to London to watch international caliber equestrian events, says Menlo Charity Horse Show founder and co-chair Betsy Glikbarg of Atherton. “We have it all, including several former as well as hopeful future Olympic riders right here for them in their back yard,” says Ms. Glikbarg. Only two days after entry blanks for the horse show were posted, more than 500 of the West Coasts top equestrians responded, she says. “We made over $100,000 in necessary improvements this year, including putting down new footing in the jumping arena and purchasing brand new jumps for the hunter ring. The word got out and once again, despite to economy, competitors are scrambling for the chance to participate.” The six-day show, from Aug.
7 through 12, at the Menlo Circus Club in Atherton, will feature non-stop jumping competition in three arenas from sunrise to sunset daily. This year the show is the first in Northern California authorized by the U.S. Hunter Jumper Association to present a $10,000 purse to the winning rider of the International Hunter Derby Competition. Dr. Daryl Hoffman of Atherton has donated the stake for this proving ground for both horses and riders. Other highlights of the show are Friday evening’s $10,000 Kew Farm Ryman memorial speed jumping class at 6 p.m., Saturday evening’s $40,000 Grand Prix, and Saturday afternoon’s lead-ine class, where children (under 6), mounted on horses, are led into the arena by an adult. Each child takes home a blue ribbon in this perennial crowd-pleaser.

Mr. Hettig was, according to friends, an adventurous man who trekked through Nepal, rafted down white-water rivers, and explored the upper reaches of the Mekong and Salween rivers in China and Tibet. Earthbound pursuits made room for airborne travels when Mr. Hettig earned a pilot’s license. He is survived by his wife Nan, of Menlo Park; his brother Richard of Melbourne, Australia, and an extended family.

Mr. Vincent, who spent much of his career in the Las Lomitas School District, was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. He graduated from the United College in Winnipeg in 1950 with a degree in psychology/ sociology. Shortly after graduating, he moved to California, worked on the Southern Pacific Railroad, and then was drafted into the U.S. Army at the beginning of the Korean War. After basic training, he was sent to Germany as a psychiatric/social worker. Upon discharge in 1953, he became an elementary school teacher. Along with his roles as a principal and vice principal in the Las Lomitas School District, he taught at many grade levels. Early in his career, he left
the district and spent a year teaching in a native school in Cordova, Alaska. Academically, he received a John Vincent master’s degree in educational administration at San Jose State University and a second master’s in family counseling from Santa Clara University. After retiring from the Las Lomitas School District in 1988, he became a juvenile probation officer for San Mateo County. He worked in East Palo Alto until 2002, when he and his wife moved from San Jose to Pleasanton. Mr. Vincent was a master wood carver and member of the Tri-Valley Carvers. He was involved in the Wounded WarObituaries are based on information provided by families and mortuaries.

During his lifetime, he sang in the choir, taught Sunday School, served as an elder and deacon, and led many mission trips to Guatemala and Alaska. Mr. Vincent is survived by his wife of 56 years, Elaine; children Dan of Folsom, Mark of San Jose, and Cary of Pleasanton; sister Joan of Hemet; and two grandchildren. Contributions in his memory may be made to the Alaska Bible College Scholarship Fund, P/O. Box 289, Glenallen, Alaska 99588 or a charity of choice.

A memorial service is set for 10:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 11, for Menlo Park resident Robert Samuel Hunter III, a lifelong teacher and the founder of the Friends of Millard Fillmore Trivia Hunt, a popular student exercise in problem-solving, critical thinking, good judgment and fair play. Mr. Hunter died July 14, after a long illness and in the company of his family, relatives said. He was 79. The memorial service will be held at St. Denis
Church at 2250 Avy Avenue in West Menlo Park, where he was a parishioner and volunteer for 45 years, relatives said. The Trivia Hunt, held nearly every February since 1969, presents high school students, most of them in San Mateo County, with trivia questions, read aloud. Students have a weekend to find answers from printed sources. The “trivial� aspect reflects the low estimation held of Millard Fillmore, the 13th U.S. president, according to the contest website.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 877-484-9942 or visit this Internet Web site www.USAForeclosure.com or www.Auction.com using the file number assigned to this case 7777.17065.
