By Wally Hage

Saturday Excursions A recent Saturday visit by my wonderful six-year-old explorer Grandson brought to mind how different life is for young children growing up today. Their constant companions are Cell phones, Nintendo games, and Backpacks filled with bottled water and an assortment of daily survival items. Their exciting lives are consumed with computers and every possible electronic gadget that brings the information age to their fingertips. Oh, yes how different it was for me growing up and exploring the world, when I was his age.

It was over seven decades ago growing up in Portland, Oregon that my Saturday excursions took place. It was surely a different world from today. The world was a smaller place and Child safety was seldom a concern. Walking, bicycle riding and the use of local transportation were usually a daily experience. As I look back and recall those days they were an exciting time in my life. But then how could you forget such a happy childhood.

As I recall those high adventures it seems as though they happened yesterday!

We were three brothers dressed like triplets, in our Saturday best clothing and ranging in age from six to twelve years old traveling throughout the city of Portland all alone.

My two brothers and I sometimes found it very scary but terribly exciting. Each Saturday our Excursions included a thrilling streetcar ride down the west side of Mt Tabor, an old extinct volcano, to attend a two hour heart pounding, ear splitting movie with a bag full of favorite candies.

Then we would continue the adventure with a hike across a swinging bridge, playing hide and seek in a twelve floor department store and eventually meeting up with my shopping Mom, to assist carrying her shopping bags home. Yes, that was this young lad’s weekly Junket into Joy. Our Saturday Adventures would begin with a five-cent fare for an exciting ride on a streetcar to a movie theatre. My head stuck out the window into the breeze, much like a dog in an automobile. This made the swaying streetcar ride down Mt Tabor, which was an old extinct volcano, as thrilling as any amusement park ride.

The admission for the Saturday morning serial movie at the Oriental Theater was … three labels from cans of food purchased from the local Fred Meyers food market. A nickel sack full of penny candy purchased from a neighborhood country store, was my daylong nourishment.

The raucous noise from the kiddy crowd watching a heart stopping serial movie was equal to any stadium-sporting event. Each serial movie ended with the hero or heroine about to be captured or killed. This would keep you in suspense until the next week’s episode.

Then as we continued our Saturday excursion, it was a mile hike to cross over the Morrison Bridge to get to the downtown Portland shopping area. The bridge walk was the scariest event of the day.

We would wait for large boats to come down the Willamette River and signal the bridge to open. Just before the bridge tender would sound the Horn that the bridge swing-span was preparing to open for the boat, we would jump upon the swinging portion of the bridge to enjoy a breathtaking ride, as the large span would swing out over the water to open for the arriving vessel. At this point of the story it is obvious that my mother had no idea her little men were so daring!

Then came the short jaunt to the Meier & Franks department store. This twelve-story department store was an unforgettable weekly adventure. Can you imagine three young explorers launching their safari up to the tenth floor toy department?

There were electric trains with whistles blowing, shinny bicycles of all colors to sit upon and dream, storybooks to browse and baby dolls in carriages crying and of course some children too! What an adventure. We had the run of that department store. Finally we would take the escalator to the twelfth floor auditorium to rest and watch the Stars of Tomorrow amateur show, while smacking down bags of popcorn. By this time our five-hour journey was coming to a conclusion. We had a specified time to meet Mom and the only certain place to meet her was under the clock on the first floor, at the center of the department store. It was truly the public meeting place for everyone in Portland. We waited next to the escalator under a four-foot clock, while an information lady directed people to specific locations in the store. Department stores in those days were big and sold everything from tires to underwear. They were the shopping mall of that era.

It was the busiest meeting place in town. Though it was always painful standing and searching the faces of everyone that passed by looking for Mom. You would see all sights and hear all sounds from babies crying, people laughing and hugging old friends and the lost looking for assistance.

In a sense it was Portland’s Town Hall for social life and shopping needs. It was a carnival like atmosphere that the young and old just could not resist.

As Mom would arrive loaded down with shopping bags, she would ask if we had gotten tired and bored. Our snickering reply was always, “Gee Mom, it wasn’t too bad!”

Yes, that was a different time and a surely a different world from the world that my wonderful Grandson, Shawn, enjoys today.

The Tax-Man He Cometh

By Franklin J. Ruedel

Top Ten Tips for Taxpayers Deducting Casualty and Theft Losses Taxpayers who find themselves the victim of a natural disaster or theft this summer should know the rules for deducting their casualty losses next year when they file their federal tax return. Generally, you may deduct losses to your home, household items and vehicles on your federal income tax return.

Here are ten things the IRS wants you to know about deducting casualty or theft losses.

You may not deduct casualty and theft losses covered by insurance unless you file a timely claim for reimbursement. You must reduce your loss by the amount of the reimbursement.

A casualty does not include normal wear and tear or progressive deterioration from age or termite damage.

The damage must be caused by a sudden, unexpected or unusual event like a car accident, fire, earthquake, flood or vandalism.

If your property is not completely destroyed or if it is personal-use property, the amount of your casualty or theft loss is the lesser of the adjusted basis of your property, or the decrease in fair market value of your property as a result of the casualty or theft, reduced by any insurance or other reimbursement you receive or expect to receive.

If business or incomeproducing property, such as rental property, is completely destroyed, the amount of your loss is your adjusted basis in

the property minus any salvage value, and minus any insurance or other reimbursement you receive or expect to receive.

To claim a casualty or theft loss, you must complete Form 4684, Casualties and Thefts, and attach it to your return. Generally, you may claim casualty or theft loss of personal use property only if you itemize deductions on Form 1040, Schedule A. However, you can deduct a 2008 or 2009 net disaster loss from a federally-declared disaster even if you do not itemize your deductions.

If the property was held by you for personal use, you must further reduce your loss by $100. This $100 reduction for losses of personal-use property applies to each casualty or theft event that occurred during the year other than 2009. For 2009, individuals must reduce their casualty and theft losses for personal-use property by $500 instead of $100. This $500 reduction for losses of personal-use property applies to each casualty or theft event.

The total of all your casualty and theft losses of personal-use property usually must be further reduced by 10 percent of your adjusted gross income. The 10 percent AGI limitation does not apply to net disaster losses resulting from federally declared disasters in 2008 and 2009.

In figuring your loss, do not consider the loss of future profits or income due to the

casualty.

Casualty losses are normally deductible only in the year the casualty occurred.

But if you have a deductible loss from a federally declared disaster you can choose to deduct that loss on your tax return for the previous year.

If you have already filed your return for the preceding year, you can claim the loss on the previous year tax return by filing an amended return.

For more information about casualty and theft losses and the special rules for net disaster losses see Publication 547, Casualties, Disasters and Thefts available on the IRS. gov Web site or by calling 800-TAX-FORM (800-8293676).

REAL LIFE HEROES In these days of non-stop tales of salacious celebrity gossip and bad behavior there is one group of celebrities that are bucking the trend. Maybe I should say rocking it.

It is a band of musicians that share a bond beyond that of music. They are entertaining on multiple levels especially if you are a television fan. They are comprised of primarily actors from some of your favorite TV shows, hence the name of their group, Band From TV.

You may have caught their act on American Idol or on The Tonight Show and thought what a great idea for a band. In addition to the novelty of them being actors for the most part they are definitely no slouches when it comes to their musical chops.

But where this band truly shines is in the size of its heart.

You see this is not just some vanity project from a group of actors with over inflated egos. These guys and gals are doing it for the benefit

of others.

This project was the brainchild of its drummer Greg Grunberg. Most of you know him as Matt Parkman from the hit show “Heroes” but he has also been in many films as well.

After Greg played a little gig at the House of Blues with a couple of other celebrities, he noticed how much interest there was afterwards and saw that it could potentially be a good way to raise money for charity. That hunch turned

Timing Could be Everything So I’ve been writing this column for going on twelve years and over all that time I’ve developed a few routines or rituals. Sometimes though, unexpected events can have an impact.

Early on, I’d go to the movies Friday afternoons, stop by my favorite Old Town Pasadena Sicilian ristorante, and come home all inspired and content, eager to be totally creative; took me about 45 minutes to pump out the column.

I’d actually write the thing longhand and leave the interpretation of it for some unfortunate TCDC team member (last hired, highest paid or any bruin connection guaranteed eligibility.) And deciphering what I had written after a glass of Sangiovese wasn’t so easy. Today, even under ideal conditions, I still have big-time issues making out my own handwriting, especially if the ink has been dry for more than ten minutes (still can’t read it but at least I remember what I was trying to say.)

Ever y t hing changed when the TCDC crew started bellyaching about my bellyaching over their lack of appreciation for the great stuff I wrote that they couldn’t read.

To avoid mutiny, I learned to use Microsoft Word.

So I’d never have passed Mark Keppel High School typing without cheating and Mom was Sicilian Catholic and I already have more guilt to carry around than I know what to do with (ah, hanging a preposition at the end of this sentence feels sooo good.)

And typing with two fingers, sometimes four, and looking at the keys at the same time and getting away with it is almost as good as tiramisu gelato on waffles. But I digress.

Once I started typing up my own stuff, a Sunday morning ritual took over. Up until this year, it was consistently eating breakfast at the office, reading the Times and listening to Meet the Press and classical all at the same time and then writing the column while still listening to Mozart.

Seemed like, by Sunday morning, I could filter out Saturday’s bill paying frenzy and those couple of troublesome calls that come in over the weekend cancelling appointments for Monday morning.

This year’s been a different story. California’s economy looks like an E. Las Tunas Drive-by. The 2009 Wells Fargo version of It’s a Wonderful Life makes old man Potter look like a cross between Tinker Bell and Robin Hood.

And even my USC Trojans got trampled by the freakin’

Ducks for cryin’ out loud (I have to concede it’s an interesting visual.)

So I found myself fighting a Sunday tendency to slip into a deep, dark, creepy crankiness just like my good commentary friend Bill Dunn (I even started my own Wong Watch.) I just wanted to complain all the time, especially about stuff like insurance and folks walking around with disease because Delta would pay for it. Even started writing on Saturdays and doing bills on Sundays so I could start the week wearing my business game face (even sneered a couple of times on Monday when Singing Dental Assistant Kolleen sang.)

Then a couple of weeks ago I wrote about Carol Liu’s Women’s Health Conference before the bills, the cancellations, and USC getting paddled by the Ducks, and it was like an epiphany. Back to Fridays! Nope.

As I’m writing this morning, I’ve read the Times, I’m hearing Wolfgang Amadeus, and I’m remembering something a trusted mentor once shared. Leaving the past in the past creates a clear, clean space for the future. And we get to choose what that future looks like. I even get to write about it. On all kinds of levels, here’s to Sundays!

out to be right.

Greg’s eldest son, Jake, was diagnosed with epilepsy so his natural inclination was to raise money for the Pediatric Epilepsy Project which raises money for UCLA’s Pediatric Neurology Department. He also raises funds for The Epilepsy Foundation.

The philanthropy of the band doesn’t stop there. All the members donate their profits as well. For example, keyboardist Hugh Laurie, known for his work in the fabulous British sitcom, and

one of my personal favorites, “Blackadder” oh, and he also plays some guy named Dr. House on an American show called “House”, supports Save The Children.

Violinist Jesse Spencer, also of “House” fame, supports The Indiana University Kenya Partnership. This group is dedicated to providing education and training for the prevention of HIV/Aids in the US, but primarily in Kenya Africa where the disease has been running rampant.

Plumber and guitar-

ist James Denton, ok, he’s not really a plumber, but he plays one on “Desperate Housewives”, donates to The Conservation Fund. It is the nation’s foremost non-profit organization for environmental protection.

I speak with a bit of expertise in the area of car washes. Between us, my husband and I own no less than nine automobiles, many of them convertibles (all of these vintage British). When we need a car to look good, we take it to Fasching’s Car Wash.

And when we need it to look great, we take it to George Fasching’s son Gregg whose detailing department makes all the difference in the world. Readers of these papers must agree with us, since Fasching’s Car Wash was voted best in the San Gabriel Valley by a substantial margin.

Clearmans Galley -Photo By Terry Miller

A truly historic San Gabriel Valley landmark, Clearman’s Galley, or “The Boat,” was originally an actual sea-faring vessel, launched in 1913 as a mail-service ship between San Francisco and Alaska. After retiring from the its postal service duties, John Clearman brought the boat to San Gabriel in 1968 where it became a hamburger stand with patio seating.

Now, 40 years after serving its first hamburger, Clearman’s Galley has reopened as a larger version of “The Boat” that now seats almost 300 guests. Outside, the patio is larger too, big enough for 90 hungry sailors.

With a new full-service bar pulling pints of over two dozen beers and more big-screen HD TVs, The Boat has quickly become a first choice venue for sports, entertainment and always a fun, family-friendly dining experience.

Sierra Madre Books opened for business in September 2007 and from the very beginning, everyone asked owners Jeff Ingwalson and Sally Morrison if opening a bookstore had been a lifelong dream. According to the couple, who just had their first child, Connor, in February, the honest answer was “not really”.

Instead, this quaint bookstore on Sierra Madre Blvd. has been more of a culmination of many smaller dreams shared by the couple - dreams like owning their own business, being self-employed, living a quieter lifestyle, virtually

Of course, being huge readers and book lovers, opening a bookstore seemed the perfect way to spend their lives.

Cafe Bizou is a not simply a romantic restaurant, it’s the quintessential date place in the San Gabriel Valley. But that’s not all. Café Bizou is also a wonderful setting for business meetings and events, family reunions, birthday celebrations, rehearsal dinners or just a fine Friday night meal. The restaurant can accommodate almost any size group and they’ll even help you build a custom menu that best fits your particular event and the tastes of your guests. Dining at the Cafe Bizou is not only an experience to be remembered, it’s one to be repeated.

At Cafe Bizou, top quality service and delicious food in a family friendly setting are the standard. Cozy and candle-lighted, it features an extensive menu and, for the wine buffs, an exceptionally friendly $2 corkage fee.

Winner - Best Wine Bar & Jazz Club

O

ver the years, red white + bluezz has established itself in Old Pasadena as one of the premier spots for a night out on the town.

It’s not just a restaurant, wine bar or a jazz club - it’s an experience. From vintage wines and artisan cheeses to live music by some of L.A.’s most renowned musicians, RWB is one of the most creative and satisfying menus on the West Coast.

From an intimate evening for two to a party for eight or more; from cocktails after work to a five-course meal; from casual to elegant, dinner at red white + bluezz ties all of these elements together.

The Grill’s menu ranges far and wide, with entrées that reinvent American cuisine. The menu reflects both experience in the kitchens of many of the country’s finest eateries and classic Cordon Bleu culinary training.

As for the wine, certified Sommeliers Russ and Marie Meek have assembled a collection of vintages and varietals to satisfy even the most discriminating palate. Pair your wine selection with a cheese flight selected to heighten the flavors of each vintage.

Though Mr. Watts had his complaints, saying he had felt that there was little opportunity for the city to have a voice in the Council of Governments. He said he felt that Sierra Madre representatives were outnumbered and outvoted in the organization that represents 87 cities throughout Southern California.

“I tend to agree, but we have to try,” MacGillivray said.

LOCAL REALTOR DONNA BAKER TO RUN FOR MONROVIA SCHOOL BOARD Candidate Managed Clarence Shaw’s City Council Campaign, Now Vies to Fill his Vacant School Board Seat

BY NURIA MATHOG Monrovia resident Donna Baker has joined candidates Chris Rich and Alexandra Zucco in campaigning for a spot on the Monrovia Unified School District Board of Education.

Baker, a Dickson Podley realtor, has been an active citizen in the community for many years. In addition to supporting the Foothill Unity Center and the Monrovia Public Library, she has sponsored numerous sports programs at Monrovia High School and the Monrovia Unified School District’s “Making the Grade” program. Other contributions include her work with the Monrovia Historic Presentation Group, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the restoration of historical city buildings, and her service as the current President and Chief Officer at the Santa Anita Family YMCA. Baker has been involved with many local groups, most

notably the Foothill Community Democrats, a local chapter of the American Democratic Party, and the Monrovia Chamber of Commerce. In 2008, the Chamber awarded Baker the title of Monrovia Citizen of the Year.

Rival candidate Chris Rich, who has a degree in Business Management from the University of Houston, has served on the Board since 2005 and is currently running for reelection. Alexandra Zucco, a graduate of the University of La Verne, filed for candidacy as a “consultant/ parent.”

This November, the candidates will compete for the two open positions on the Board: the office of former Board member Clarence R. Shaw, who relinquished his seat on the Board to serve on the Monrovia City Council this April, and the office of

Winner- Best Bank

When Amadeo Giannini founded the Bank of Italy in 1904 in San Francisco, I doubt that he realized he was beginning what would become one of the largest financial institutions in the world. My relationship with what is now known at the Bank of America began when I was only two days old. While I did not have much of a say in the banking decision, I have never regretted by grandfather’s choice. I get immediate service both on line, at the ATM and, on those rare occasions when I need them, the personnel in the bank.

Construction

The words “Craftsmen” and “Contractors” aren’t normally mentioned in the same sentence - but one local company, S&N Construction, might just change that perception forever. Around here, the name “S&N Construction” has become synonymous with craftsmanship after years of satisfied clients and work done right.

In fact, everything at S&N is custom ordered; there’ll be no cookie cutter projects with these pros.

S&N prides themselves on being an “attention to detail contractor”, and only the best will do for these perfectionists.

The owners of S&N believe that if a job is worth doing, it’s worth doing not just well, but exceptionally well.

This philosophy has helped establish the company throughout the community and has kept the referrals coming.

Be sure to talk to Nate, the owner. He’ll put your mind at ease and help figure out just how to tackle your particular project.

COIT began offering cleaning services in 1950 as a small dry cleaner, located near COIT Tower in San Francisco, California. Shortly after opening, founder Lou Kearn offered something new - drapery cleaning backed by a 100% Best Carpet Cleaner Satisfaction Guarantee.

As a result, his small business flourished and many more cleaning services were added.

Proud of the tradition started by Lou, all of COIT’s cleaning services are still backed by that same guarantee. Today, COIT is one of the largest specialty cleaning & restoration companies in the world. They have more than 50 years of experience in the industry, yet have remained a family-owned business with a close-knit corporate culture.

pened in the 1930s, Colonial Pharmacy in Arcadia seems like the type neighborhood pharmacy where smiling faces and personalized service keep customers coming back - and it surely is. But there’s something else that keeps owner/ pharmacist Mark Burstyn’s customers coming back time and again even as huge retail chains saturate the market and threaten the livelihood of community stores like this one.

name, their highly trained and certified pharmacists that can provide services you just won’t find at those large impersonal chain pharmacies.

It’s these services like compounding custom formulations for natural hormone replacement therapy, vaccinations, blood tests and 1-stop anti-coagulation services - virtually unheard of in a retail setting - that made our readers recognize Colonial as the special place it is.

Colonial was recently Medicare Accredited. A long process that most pharmacies have opted not to endure.

In addition to outstanding services, Dr Burstyn has recently added a large selection of Homeopathic remedies for those looking for a more natural approach to health. For instance, Colonial has a natural flu spray during this flu season.

Colonial widely known for its large inventory. They stock braces, wheelchairs, walkers, ostomy supplies, wound dressings, and diabetes supplies and shoes.

Just like his customers, Burstyn is faced with new healthcare challenges nearly every day, and his response has been not merely his continued innovation, but one of genuine partnership with those customers in navigating the ever-changing healthcare landscape, saving money, saving time, and most importantly, saving health.

he Sierra Madre Woman’s Club is a 501(c)3 organization currently celebrating its 102nd year of operation in Sierra Madre.

The proceeds from the Wistaria Thrift Shop, house rentals and club events support the upkeep of the club’s Historic Essick House while at the same time providing funding for the many charities the group continually supports.

But according to these women, all the thanks for these efforts belong to the many members of the community who have supported them all these many years.

Regular meetings are held on the second and fourth Wednesdays of the month, starting on the fourth Wednesday in September through the fourth Wednesday in May, and feature stimulating and enjoyable programs. All regular meetings are held in their clubhouse, the Essick House, built in 1914.

The group is always accepting new members from all around the San Gabriel Valley and continually urges interested women to join the club as they work together for the good of the club and the community. Potential new members should contact Chairwoman Phyllis Chapman at (626) 355-3928 or Rosemary Morabito at (818) 415-6189.

REAL LIFE HEROES Continued from 3 and TLC’s “Date My House.”

Bob splits his support between two charities, The Children’s Hospital here in Los Angeles and an organization called The Art of Elysium.

Elysium’s function is to enrich the lives of critically ill artists and children. Until I started this article I had never heard about them, but it sounds like a fabulous charity.

And so it goes. Every member of the band gives to somebody. There are new members and special guests who join in all the time. When they do, they give to a charity of their choice. It comes with the gig.

That makes this a true group of real life heroes in my eyes. They don’t use their celebrity to get a better table at the latest hot eatery in town; they do it out of a love of helping other people and a love of music.

I am a firm believer in supporting anyone who does such a selfless act and I hope you are too, because there are ways that you can.

First, if you hear about them playing anywhere, even

remotely close to you, go out and see them. You will see a talented group of musicians and have a great time doing it.

Second, the band has a website, like most bands do nowadays, http://www.bandfromtv.org . There you can get all the latest updates on up and coming gigs, download music, buy t-shirts, caps, or their album “Hoggin’ All The Covers”.

I know that everybody is feeling the pinch of the financial vise we are all in right now and making donations is probably the last thing on your list of things to do. If you do donate you probably only choose one charity to give to.

By buying a t-shirt or an album, or both, from the Band From TV you will be supporting numerous charities in one fell swoop. Not only that, you will be sporting a hip shirt and listening to some great music. So how can you lose?

Not only that, you can feel like a hero. Just like the ones on TV.

Runner Up - Best Martial Arts

The “Y” has long been associated with developing values in the young people who go there and encouraging the development of character has always been a hallmark of the organization.

It’s therefore no surprise that they were voted best in the area of martial arts in our Readers’ Choice 2009 poll.

No disrespect to Master Splinter, but martial arts is not all about Bruce Lee and Ninja Turtles.

Respect and responsibility are key aspects of the study of martial arts; and not surprisingly, these are two of the four core values the YMCA stresses. While they were selected by our readers in the area of Martial Arts, there is always a great deal more going on at the “Y” and the staff is always glad to explain all the opportunities for physical fitness as well as good old fashioned fun.

Wacky Stunts at Longden Longden Elementary School students were treated to “celebrity” performances after their monthly flag ceremony on October 28.

“Not so Hannah Montana,” aka Principal Cheryl Busick (left) and back-up singer Terry “Diva” Sholty (below) rocked the Longden campus!

Principal Busick and Assistant Principal Sholty promised students they would do wacky stunts if students purchased 1,000 books at this

year’s fall book fair. Students exceeded their goals, pur-

chasing 1,300 books and raising $8,636 for their school.

Kiwanis Honors Emperor Elementary School Students Janelle Santos, Ryan Chu, and Ivan Martinez Kiwanis Club of Temple City was pleased to have honored three outstanding students from Emperor Elementary School on November 10, 2009. Pictured with the proud students is 6th grade teacher, Mr. Greg Giangregorio.

Janelle is 11 years old and in Mr. Giangregorio’s class.

Janelle has two brothers and enjoys basketball, flag football, pentathlon, and her sense of humor. Janelle said, “The best things about Emperor are the great staff, and the exciting assemblies.” The best thing that ever happened was when she first met her coach who encouraged her in sports.

Personal goals are to build an amusement park with the scariest rides, get straight A’s, go to college, and become a pediatrician.

Ryan is 11 years old and in Mrs. Scanlon’s class. Ryan has a younger brother and enjoys school, books, computers, and games. Ryan said, “The

best things about Emperor are the staff, teachers, and students.” The best thing that ever happened was getting all A’s for the first time in his life.

Personal goals are to build a museum of all the video games in the world, get good grades, have a healthy life, and get better at his weaknesses.

Ivan is 11 years old and in Miss Parrille’s class. Ivan has three sisters and enjoys playing football, skating, and going camping with his family. Ivan said, “The best things about Emperor are my teachers, the playground, and the great Principal.” The best thing that ever happened was getting a baby sister. Personal goals are to invent a new flavor of soda, become a good football player, do good in school, and become a Marine Biologist.

Each week the Temple City Kiwanis Club is pleased to recognize outstanding students and their teachers from Cloverly, Emperor, Longden,

Oak Avenue, and the Dr. Doug Sears Learning Center.

Kiwanis treats students and their teacher to lunch. Students receive a certificate, a letter for their parents, a bumper sticker, a gift certificate from The Hat Restaurant, and a photograph of them receiving their award. Their photo will also be published in Temple City Life, Mid Valley News, Temple City Tribune, and displayed in the Temple City Unified School District lobby.

Temple City Kiwanis has been serving our community since 1939. Members are dedicated men and women who desire to make a difference in the quality of life for the youth of Temple City. Kiwanis meets at 12:00 noon each Tuesday at The Bahooka Family Restaurant. To find out more about Kiwanis, please call Jerry Jambazian at (626) 286-2444.

LOCAL REALTOR DONNA BAKER TO RUN FOR MONROVIA SCHOOL BOARD Candidate Managed Clarence Shaw’s City Council Campaign, Now Vies to Fill his Vacant School Board Seat

BY NURIA MATHOG Monrovia resident Donna Baker has joined candidates Chris Rich and Alexandra Zucco in campaigning for a spot on the Monrovia Unified School District Board of Education.

Baker, a Dickson Podley realtor, has been an active citizen in the community for many years. In addition to supporting the Foothill Unity Center and the Monrovia Public Library, she has sponsored numerous sports programs at Monrovia High School and the Monrovia Unified School District’s “Making the Grade” program. Other contributions include her work with the Monrovia Historic Presentation Group, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the restoration of historical city buildings, and her service as the current President and Chief Officer at the Santa Anita Family YMCA. Baker has been involved with many local groups, most

notably the Foothill Community Democrats, a local chapter of the American Democratic Party, and the Monrovia Chamber of Commerce. In 2008, the Chamber awarded Baker the title of Monrovia Citizen of the Year.

Rival candidate Chris Rich, who has a degree in Business Management from the University of Houston, has served on the Board since 2005 and is currently running for reelection. Alexandra Zucco, a graduate of the University of La Verne, filed for candidacy as a “consultant/ parent.”

This November, the candidates will compete for the two open positions on the Board: the office of former Board member Clarence R. Shaw, who relinquished his seat on the Board to serve on the Monrovia City Council this April, and the office of
