Sea Glass Festival donates to Maui relief

The Santa Barbara Sea Glass & Ocean Arts Festival – which was founded in Carpinteria – has donated $2,000 to Direct Relief International for assistance in Maui Wildfire relief efforts, the group said in a press release. The festival’s founders are Karen and Alan Clark, owners of Carpinteria’s Whimsy Antiques.

“Direct Relief is making a real difference in the lives of people affected by the Maui wildfires,” said Karen Clark, festival art director and organizer. “We are honored to support their work and help bring relief to those in need.”

The donated money came from 10% of ticket sales and 100% of donations from the Sept. 9-10 festival.

“Direct Relief is deeply grateful to Santa Barbara Sea Glass & Ocean Arts Festival and the participants who contributed so generously,” said Dean Axelrod, vice president of Partnerships & Philanthropy at Direct Relief. “This donation will help deliver specifically requested medicines and medical supplies at no charge for people on Maui who would otherwise not have access, in these enormously difficult circumstances.”

Christ Church to host police exhibition

Carpinteria’s Christ Church and the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Department will host a department exhibition at the church’s 1335 Vallecito Place campus on Saturday, Oct. 14, 11 a.m. – 2 p.m. Two K-9 units will perform search demonstrations, and attendees can meet members of the sheriff’s department and look at the inside of a police car.

Food and drinks will be provided, according to the church. “This will be a great opportunity to grow in unity and fellowship, as well as get to know our local and faithful first responders. Be sure to bring a friend!” the church said on its flyer.

WEEK 4 UPDATE

Your local news is on the brink

This week concludes our formal ad campaign, but the fight is not over!

Dear Carpinteria Community,

In September, we kicked off our 30th year of publication – Vol. 30, No. 1. The last three decades are a huge point of pride for our publishers and staff. Without interruption, we have delivered news to Carpinteria Valley every week since 1994. We have enjoyed publishing each issue and consider it a privilege to be at the center of the conversation in the community we love. Thank you, community of Carpinteria, for the support and trust you have placed in Coastal View News for 30 years.

However, the timing of this milestone could not be worse. Rather than celebrating this special day, we consider it our responsibility to inform Carpinterians that the future of Coastal View News is in jeopardy.

Over the last two years, CVN’s printing and production costs have more than doubled while paid advertising – our revenue source – has declined. Despite a small and efficient staff, CVN’s expenses now far outpace our income; this is a lifeor-death situation.

Thank you to the readers that became CVN Sustaining Members through an annual contribution or monthly pledge. We will continue to remind readers and advertisers that continued support is vital to secure the future of free local news and event coverage.

Thank you, Carpinteria!

CITY BEAT City Council permanently establishes outdoor parklets program

4  Thursday, October 12, 2023

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California

BY ATMIKA IYER

In a 4-0 vote – and after a year of back and forth – the Carpinteria City Council voted on Monday, Oct. 9 to permanently establish parklets for Carpinteria’s small businesses, allowing those businesses to continue operating in outdoor spaces.

Vice Mayor Natalia Alarcon was absent from the meeting.

As the council grappled with how to assist small businesses during the beginning of the pandemic in May 2020, it passed an urgency ordinance allowing businesses to operate with outdoor seating in public rights of way. The ordinance was then extended five times after the council directed staff to draft an amendment allowing parklets to be used on a permanent basis.

After conducting public workshops and reaching out to stakeholders, staff returned with four suggestions: approve the new encroachment guidelines; authorize the city manager to purchase six parklets with a total budget allocation of $110,000; authorize city manager to secure parklet leases with small businesses at an annual lease rate of $800; and direct staff to bring back an extension of the Covid-19 Outdoor Business Program to account for the time period in transitioning to the lease system.

Director of Public Works John Ilasin said that the Architectural Review Board (ARB) requested city staff convey to the

Despite the conveyed reservations, the council voted to establish the parklets permanently with few questions and little discussion.

County, city enter into library system agreement On Monday, Oct. 9, the council approved a new library agreement between the city of Carpinteria and Santa Barbara County; under the new agreement, the county will provide the city with $146,831 in funds for the city’s library budget. The library’s budgeted expenditures for the current fiscal year is $742,500, funded through Measure X, grants, funds from the Friends of the Carpinteria Library and, now, the county.

“The County per capita funding, Measure X funds, grants, and funding from the Friends of the Carpinteria Library help the Carpinteria Community Library meet its budgetary needs,” the staff report states.

On Monday, City Librarian Jody Thomas also presented to the council the library’s Black Gold Cooperative System, which allows member libraries to share resources in a cost-effective manner. Shared resources include books, music, movies, ideas for programming and best practices and internet service.

The total budget allocation for the

Black Gold Cooperative System for the Carpinteria Community Library is $65,000 – with an estimated $43,095 going toward the shared budget – $10,297 for reimbursables and $3,390 for unfunded pension liability. The county of Santa Barbara will contribute an undisclosed portion of the funds required for unfunded pension liability.

The Carpinteria Community Library participates in this program alongside the Santa Paula Public Library, the Goleta and Santa Ynez Valley Libraries, the Lompoc Public Library, Paso Robles City Library and the Santa Maria Public Library.

Thomas said that in the past year, the Carpinteria Community Library shared 340 items and borrowed 672 items. Despite the library requesting more physical content than it shares, Thomas said that the inverse is true of its digital content.

“Remember that we’re the tiniest little library in the system, and that is a pretty healthy ratio,” Thomas said.

Obituary

Bernard A. Grewe 10/02/1923 – 09/23/2023

Bernard A. Grewe, 99, known to friends and family as “Bernie,” died on Sept. 23, 2023, in Arroyo Grande, Calif.

Bernie was born in Detroit, Michigan, on the east side of the city, on Oct. 2, 1923, the sixth of seven children of Bernard A. and Gertrude (Karp) Grewe. In his youth, he was a Boy Scout, and enjoyed ice skating on the Detroit River, bowling, table tennis and badminton. As a young man, he worked part time at the family business, the G&G Grocery on Woodward Avenue.

Bernie served with the U.S. Army during WWII with Battery B, 215th Field Artillery Battalion, in the 3rd Army and the 9th Army. He was awarded the following service and campaign medals: The American Campaign Medal, The Europe-North Africa-Middle East Campaign medals (3 battle stars): Ardennes-Alsace Campaign, Rhineland Campaign, and Central Europe Campaign; WWII Victory Medal; and Army of Occupation Medal (Germany).

After the war, Bernie married Patricia Ann “Patti” McKay, the love of his life.

In 1950, they moved to the San Fernan-

CVN

do Valley, Calif., where they raised six children. He had a career in the grocery/ wine retail business. In 1977, a business opportunity in Montecito arose and they relocated to the small beach town, Carpinteria, Calif.

Bernie and Patti loved walking on the beach and enjoyed stopping for a cup of coffee on their way home. Bernie was an avid Detroit Lions and Michigan State football fan. Even though he was not much of a swimmer, he often joked that he was out bodysurfing when he was actually running daily errands. In his retirement, Bernie wrote many stories about his life experiences that he shared with his children.

Patti predeceased Bernie. He was a loving father to Pandora Carlucci and her husband Gino, Nell Quijano and her husband Eddy, Bill Grewe and his wife Tammie, March Ann Noles and her husband Larry, Mary Jo Cali and her husband Wayne and Tom Grewe and his wife Lyse. He was a devoted grandfather to 19 grandchildren and 11 great-grandchildren. He was a caring uncle to his nieces and nephews and a valued friend to many.

He was predeceased by his siblings Marie Grewe, Agnes G. Wersching, David B. Grewe, Eugene F. Grewe, Elizabeth G. Henrichs and Joann G. Reed.

Bernie’s children and friends will always remember his whistle and his baby blue eyes. His donations supported several churches and many charitable, civic and community organizations. His life epitomized the importance of family, faith and generosity to others. Bernie’s life was well-lived.

Burial and services will be private.

Bernie’s family thanks the staff at Wyndham Residence and Wilshire Hospice for their kind and compassionate care.

“The project is enormous and totally out of character with the area. If you go around to the rear of this monstrosity at the end of Ninth Street next to Franklin Creek it would look like the rear end of an Amazon warehouse.”

––Bob Franco

Downtown project not right fit

Driving by Sun Coast Rentals at 4745 Carpinteria Ave. on my way to the Avocado Festival, I noticed that the story poles were gone. I’m wondering if you had the same sensation as I had when I first saw the giant height of the poles? It felt like I was about to be inundated by an orange tsunami.

The project is enormous and totally out of character with the area. If you go around to the rear of this monstrosity at the end of Ninth Street next to Franklin Creek it would look like the rear end of an Amazon warehouse. The impact to the residents of this area, of a mountain-sized building blocking the sun and what little view they had of the mountains, is outrageous.

The project is a mixed-use commercial/residential development. It appears to be headed to a final project review by the Architectural Review Board (ARB).

What is surprising is that no one has spoken up about it and the building height, which is 36 feet. The proposed 24 two-bedroom, plus four “townhome” units, will include a “percentage” of socalled “affordable housing.” If you want to know more about this project, you can download the review at the city’s website.

Just type in the address of the project.

Have you ever heard of the acronym TLDR? It means “too long, didn’t read.”

The review is 144 pages. But you don’t have to read all of it. The first few pages will tell you all you need to know. If you think this project is not right for the area,

then you must say so to the ARB or any other commission or council. If we are to have a voice in our community, enough of us must show our concerns.

Mammograms save lives

Stay alert, women of America. October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It is very important that women get screened for breast cancer. That includes a yearly mammogram. I should know, I am a breast cancer survivor and my yearly mammogram exposed my breast cancer early. Recently, my identical twin sister was diagnosed with stage one (very early) breast cancer after her yearly mammogram. So, mammograms save lives.

Recently, Santa Barbara County’s October 2023 newsletter highlighted breast cancer. Bravo. This was very important because breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer in women according to the American Cancer Society’s 2023 report.

It is estimated that 297,790 women and 2,800 men will be diagnosed this year.

Age and gender remain key factors. Although women do get breast cancer after 40, the majority of women get it in their 60s and older.

Going forward, I encourage women and men to stay alert and get screened.

Your life may depend on it.

CEF provides recipe for career success to students

BY AMY MARIE OROZCO What’s cooking at Carpinteria High School? Career Technical Education for one thing. CTE allows students to taste-test future careers by providing a menu of the necessary academic and technical skills, knowledge and training for success. A national program, CTE has an enrollment of roughly 12.5 million college- and high-school-aged students.

Thanks to the Carpinteria Education Foundation, the enrichment coursework is a reality on the high school campus.

About 110 students, from eighth to twelfth graders, are enrolled in the Culinary Arts Pathway, according to first-year teacher and seasoned restaurant veteran Jonathan Ramirez. Eighth graders are taking an Intro to Culinary course that teaches basic knife skills, sanitation, safety and the first steps of beginning baking.

Culinary Arts I includes an intro to baking and cooking designed to give a solid foundation on which to rise. Sanitation, safety and basic nutrition also are part of the coursework. Culinary Arts II builds upon the basics previously learned, plus students get to explore regional cooking styles such Italian and French cuisines.

Students also learn about the wide variety of career choices in the food industry, where there is so much more than being a chef or a food server.

“I have friends who moved into sales for companies like Sysco and Lamb Weston, the biggest French fry vendor in the United States. Others have become restaurant owners, manage university dining halls or work in Michelin-starred restaurants. The opportunities are endless,” explained Ramirez, who started his food industry career as a dishwasher at a catering company. His resume includes Les Marchands, The Four Seasons and head chef at Scarlet Begonia.

The Multimedia Pathway is another CTE program offered at Carpinteria High School. It is a Santa Barbara City College dual enrollment course and students receive both CHS and SBCC credit. There are 15 students in the class.

“The first semester concentrates on Adobe InDesign with introductions to Photoshop and Illustrator. The second semester focuses on Adobe Illustrator,” reported instructor Van Latham. “The Adobe Creative Suite is new to most of the students. They enjoy learning about industry-standard applications. Once they learn the tools, the creative works of art they can create is most enjoyable for the students.”

Quite a few students go on to major in graphic design, digital production and other majors at the college level. “The most recent was Iltze Alvarado, who is a freshman at Sacramento State majoring in graphic design,” noted Latham, who holds a master’s in educational technology and is self-taught in graphics, with much industry-related coursework on his resume. “She is very talented. She won the design competition for the new Carpinteria Library card.”

A former math teacher at CHS, Latham enjoys the left brain and right brain differences between the two courses. Often receiving nice feedback from graduates about how the course helped them at college, that it really helped them create quality presentations and reports, he said, “It is always gratifying to hear that you have helped a student in their educational career.”

Local polio survivor honored by Rotary Club of Carpinteria Morning

BY JUN STARKEY

Polio is widely considered a disease of the past; the first polio vaccine was created in the early 1950s, and the rate of infections went down drastically. It was considered eliminated in North and South America by 1994.

Carpinterian Bobbi Hutchins has lived with the disease for more than 70 years, after being infected as a six-week-old.

She has spent her life pushing through chronic pain to create a productive life for herself and her family, never stopping to feel sorry for herself, she told CVN. “Talking about life with polio can be so negative and downright discouraging,” Hutchins said. “You just need to be grateful for the things you can do.”

The youngest of four, Hutchins was born in 1950, just five years before the polio vaccine was available. She became infected with the virus as an infant, and would go through nearly 10 surgeries before she was an adult. The majority of her operations took place when she was very young, and the last took place before her senior year of high school.

Hutchins grew up in the central valley, Visalia; during her youth, Hutchins said she never felt like there was anything different about herself. She played with her siblings, though her brace or cast would sometimes stop her from playing in the mud or sprinklers. Hutchins’ family, especially her father, made a concerted effort to show her she could do anything anyone else can do.

“I have a responsibility to be the best I can be within my abilities,” she said. “My mindset has always been to look around and see what needs to get done.”

Hutchins’ right leg and hip were underdeveloped, as polio attacks nerves attached to muscles. She wore corrective braces and shoes, and at 13 underwent surgery to stunt the growth in her left leg, to balance the length of both legs. Despite doctors telling her father Hutchins would “probably never walk,” Hutchins began walking at 16 months old, after spending weeks in physical therapy with her family. Her father would use his lunch breaks to assist her with physical therapy.

During high school, a program became available that would determine what job Hutchins would be best suited for. The result of her test determined that she would do best rolling coins in the back room of a bank – Hutchins did not agree with the assessment. “You don’t take the easy route when you know you can do more with effort and tenacity,” she said.

Hutchins graduated magna cum laude in liberal studies from Cal State Bakersfield, where she was also chosen as Student of the Year. She would work

as a kindergarten teacher for 16 years before retiring.

After meeting Mary Layman – vocation chair with the Rotary Club of Carpinteria Morning – at Family Baptist Church, Hutchins was awarded the Community Star from the club. The Community Star is awarded to “recognize the determined and often quietly heroic people of our town,” Layman said.

Hutchins resides in Carpinteria with her husband Jack, their daughter Christy, their son-in-law Jon-Ryan Schlobohm and their four grandchildren. They have another daughter, Sarah, who lives in Santa Barbara with their other grandson. Bobbi and Jack Hutchins enjoy their day-to-day lives surrounded by their grandchildren, Hutchins told CVN.

THE BOOK NOOK Carpinteria Community Library recommends...

“Horse” by Geraldine Brooks

Pulitzer Prize-winning author Geraldine Brooks has written another compelling, engaging and wonderful book: “Horse.” The story takes place in modern day as well as the 1850s and uses the famous racehorse, Lexington, as the connecting element between the stories of two Black men in two different eras. The horse is alive and winning in the 1850s; his skeleton is then re-discovered in modern day, after languishing in storage at the Smithsonian Museum for nearly a century. Lexington’s story had been lost to history. So beloved at his death he received a funeral fit for a statesman and was buried in an enormous custom-built coffin. Admirers from near and far made pilgrimages to the extraordinary horse, some cutting souvenirs of his tail as a keepsake.

This historical fiction includes additional factual details including the oil painting rendered by traveling horse portrait painter, Thomas Scott, which plays a significant role in the story. Brooks herself rides horses, and there is a good deal of love for horses in the novel. Descriptions of the actual horse races are thrilling.

The depth of the novel, however, centers around the two Black protagonists, slavery and racism and their experiences both juxtaposed and familiar. The novel explores art and science, the bond between people and animals and the continuing story of race and injustice. It’s a beautiful, thoughtful and satisfying read.

It is available through the Carpinteria Community Library in all formats, including Kindle, Book Club kit, audiobook and large type.

––Jody Thomas, Carpinteria Community Library librarian

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California with “If I die before I wake, I pray the lord my soul to take.” Insomnia is rife amongst believers.

This book’s title is nowhere near as dour as it seems. In fact, each chapter is a joyous ode to loving, learning and especially living while dying. Schwalbe is an excellent longtime publisher, editor and journalist. He is the son of a very successful concert artist’s representative, brother to a film producer, Doug; and Nina, working for TB Alliance fighting tuberculosis around the globe. All of them highly educated, wealthy and world travelers.

But the most amazing member of this family to whom this love letter of a book is dedicated is wife/mother Mary Anne, a wealthy matron who gave tea parties to raise funds for libraries in Afghanistan, West Africa and Southeast Asia. After one of these long jaunts, she returned home unwell as usual – except she didn’t get better. Pancreatic cancer: stage 4. There were many hours of chemo and experimental drugs filled with loving conversations about books between the author and his mother. Mary Anne Schwalbe passed on September 14, 2009.

Whenever I feel down, I reread any chapter from “The End of Life Book Club” for a balm and a bon-bon for the spirit.

“Homicide” by David Simon

CVN Sports Editor Ryan P. Cruz is reading “Homicide” by David Simon, the creator of the award-winning tv show “The Wire.”

The book, which won the 1992 Edgar Award in the Best Fact Crime category, describes Simon’s year spent with detectives from the Baltimore Police Department Homicide Unit: Harry Edgerton, a Black detective in a mostly white homicide unit; veteran investigator Donald Worden; and rookie investigator Tom Pellegrini, who takes on the most difficult and horrific case of that year. (Published June 1991; 608 pages)

“Frankenstein” by Mary Shelley

CVN Assistant Editor Jun Starkey is reading the classic Mary Shelley’s “Frankenstein,” often regarded as the first true science-fiction story. Shelley started writing the story of the Modern Prometheus when she was 18; it was published anonymously when she was 20. Her name appeared in the second edition, published in 1821. The electrifying tale covers one man’s fight to bring the inanimate to life, and the fallout that occurs. (Published 1818)

It’s sick season

COFFEE, CAREER AND KIDDOS T E R E S A A LVA R E Z My least favorite season is upon us, and before you all think I don’t like Halloween, Fall or pumpkin spice, that’s not what I’m talking about. It’s sick season!

It’s “who’s going to stay with the kids today” season; it’s “I couldn’t sleep at all last night with the boys coughing every second” season. Yes, it’s here, and according to something I watched on Instagram (where I get most of my news), it’s supposed to be a bad one.

Our family recently recovered from a two-week run of a bad cold. It was congestion, coughing, runny noses and fevers for all. It’s the sickest I’ve been in quite some time, and it even got my husband, who I feel has an immune system of steel. The hardest part of it all was not the sleepless nights, although those remind me why I don’t want a third child: no, it’s the inability to rest as a parent. On the days I was home sick, the boys were also home sick, which meant I was taking care of them. All while still trying to stay on top of things at work. This also meant that we were all on edge. No one felt well or had slept well, and it took real intention to shift our perspective and say, we’re sick, we’re tired, but we are going to be kind to one another and patient because it doesn’t help anyone to be snappy or cranky with one each other when we’re all on the same boat. This was extremely helpful for my husband and me because having sick kids and being sick ourselves is stressful. Having to figure out who’s taking what kid, scheduling doctor’s appointments if needed and missing work is overwhelming.

On the day the boys finally went to school, my body gave up and I finally called in sick and took a day off. It sounds silly, but as a mom and a person running a nonprofit that serves children and families, I feel like I can’t take a whole day. Texts come in, and I answer them groggy, mid-nap; emails with deadlines come in, and I reply. That day I sent a text out to the team and let them know I’d be disconnecting. I knew that to get through the week, I’d have to take care of myself.

I called my mom and asked for her caldo recipe and made pot after pot of tea. I

We often feel like we have to push through – at least I do – and I want to get it all done and attend every meeting and event, and it’s not until my body shuts down that I realize I need to be more intentional about resting and recharging.

doused myself in Vapor Rub, or vaporu, like my mom calls it and rested. To my surprise, I started feeling better, made it through the end of the week and was well enough to enjoy the Avocado Festival.

I shared all of this because we often feel like we have to push through – at least I do – and I want to get it all done and attend every meeting and event, and it’s not until my body shuts down that I realize I need to be more intentional about resting and recharging. The work will still be there, and if you have a fantastic team like me, the work gets carried forth and done well.

This sick season, stock up on tissues, whatever ingredients you need for your comfort food and your favorite teas and remedies, but most importantly, take care of yourself. Take that sick day and get the rest you need. Buckle up because if this winter is like last winter, it’ll be rough, but we’ll get through it because we are parents, and it’s what we do.

37th Avofest dedicated to Carpinterian Mac Brown PHOTOS BY ROBIN KARLSSON

The 37th Carpinteria Avocado Festival – known in shorthand as Avofest – was dedicated to longtime Carpinterian Mac Brown, who passed away Thursday, Oct. 5.

Honorary chair Andy Sheaffer, with his fellow chair, Kathy Sheaffer, opened the festival by raising a Coors Light in Brown’s honor during the opening ceremony.

Brown was also eulogized in several ways throughout the three-day festival, including during the guacamole contest by organizers.

“This year’s festival was dedicated to Mac Brown by the organizers and the festival was full of 60 bands, over 50 vendors, 15 food vendors, over a dozen nonprofits and an amazing Avocado Expo Tent,” the Avofest team told CVN in an email.

This year’s festival had more than 175 volunteers, according to the festival’s organizers. “The joy was felt, the community feeling was there and the energy was high to celebrate the Avocado and our community in this sweet town (…) our community has now established a wonderful venue that works for the city, the community and the businesses. This year we were able to support the Future Farmers of America with a great auction of huge avocados, avocado trees and bags of avocados during the guacamole contest, as well as raise funds for the Carpinteria Education Foundation through all the generous tips given at the festival,” the team added.

“These contributions make it possible for us to offer scholarship money to our local students. Not only did the Avocado Festival raise funds for these nonprofits, but it gave an outlet to so many of our local non-profit organizations such as the Rotary Club, Lions Club, Cheerleaders and Boosters and many more.”

Donation requests open for Festival of Trees

Donation requests for the Lions Club of Carpinteria’s annual Festival of Trees – held annually in December – are now open for community nonprofits through Oct. 31, according to Festival of Trees Committee Chair Mike Dawson. The 14th annual Festival of Trees will begin Friday, Nov. 24, with the event extended this year from 16 to 22 days, at the Lynda Fairly Carpinteria Arts Center; the raffle will be held on Saturday, Dec. 16.

Donation requests can be sent to Dawson by calling (805) 568-4038 or contacting him at mike@bigredcrane.net. All donation requests must be made no later than Oct. 31, and requests for funds must be from a 501©(3) organization with a federal or California tax ID number, so they can be easily identified. Requestors will also be asked to supply volunteers to help each day during the event.

“This great event was started 14 years ago – the inaugural year featured 13 beautifully decorated trees and raised $14,000 for the Culinary Arts program at the high school. Over the past 14 years, Festival of Trees has raised over $200,000, all going to local non-profits,” Dawson said in a press release.

Finlay will screen his latest film “Hearts Road,” which includes his photos, illustrations and collages, set to a soundtrack that Finlay composed and recorded.

The exhibit is free to the public, and will feature more than 140 works, focusing on natural landscapes, as well as seascapes, parks, trails, flora “Seven Falls Spill” by Kevin Gleason and fauna. Sales from the art show will go towards supporting non-profit organizations such as the Santa Barbara County Trails Council, the Los Padres Forest Association and SCAPE. “We are thrilled to present this timely and important exhibition,” said Karen Glancy, exhibit chair for SCAPE. “Art can raise awareness of critical environmental issues and inspire us to take action. We hope that visitors to the exhibition will be moved by the artists’ work and leave with a renewed commitment to protecting the environment.”

The display will be open on Oct. 14, 1–7 p.m., with an awards reception from 5 to 6:30 p.m., and Sunday, Oct. 15, 10 a.m. – 3 p.m. The Music Academy of the West is located at 1071 Fairway Road, Montecito.

Brian C. Barrett, CMC, CPMC, City Clerk Publish: October 12, 2023 ________________________________ Notice Of Trustee’s Sale Under Notice Of Delinquent Assessment And Claim Of Lien Order No: APN: 051-430-009 You Are In Default Under A Notice Of Delinquent Assessment And Claim Of Lien, Dated 3/10/2023. Unless You Take Action To Protect Your Property, It May Be Sold At A Public Sale. If You Need An Explanation Of The Nature Of The Proceeding Against You, You Should Contact A Lawyer. Notice is hereby given that Schwartz Vays, as duly appointed trustee pursuant to that certain Notice of Delinquent Assessment and Claim of Lien (hereinafter referred to as “Lien”), recorded on 3/10/2023 as Doc #2023-0006753in the office of the County Recorder of Santa Barbara County, California, and further pursuant to the Notice of Default and Election to Sell thereunder recorded on 6/15/2023 as Doc# 2023-0017272 in said county and further pursuant to California Civil Code Section 5675 et seq. and those certain Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions recorded on 11/4/1974 as Instrument #1974-39393, will Sell on 11/1/2023 at 1:00 PM, north door main entrance to County Courthouse, 1100 Anacapa Street Santa Barbara CA 93121, at public auction to the highest bidder for lawful money of the United States payable at the time of sale, all right, title and interest in the property situated in said county as more fully described in the above-referenced Lien. The purported owner(s) of said property is (are): Gloria L Plumb. The property address and other common designation, if any, of the real property is purported to be: 132 W Alamar Avenue #5 Santa Barbara, CA 93105, APN 051-430009. The undersigned trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the of the initial publication of this Notice of Sale is: $11,044.88.

The opening bid at the foreclosure sale may be more or less than this estimate.

In addition to cash, trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn on a state or federal credit union or a cheek drawn on a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state. If tender other than cash is accepted, the trustee may withhold issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. In its sole discretion, the seller (foreclosing party) reserves the right to withdraw the property from sale after the opening credit bid is announced but before the sale is completed. The opening bid is placed on behalf of the seller. Said sale shall be made, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to satisfy the indebtedness secured by said Lien, advances thereunder, with interest as provided in the Declaration or by law plus the fees, charges and expenses of the trustee. No cashier’s checks older than 60 days from the day of sale will be accepted. This Property Is Being Sold In An “As-Is “Condition. This communication is from a debt collector. Schwartz Vays is attempting to collect a debt and any information obtained will be used for that purpose. If you have previously received a discharge in bankruptcy, you may have been released from personal liability for

this debt in which case this notice is intended to exercise the secured party’s rights against the real property only.

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 docs 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 bold 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 this sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date of the sale of this property, you may call 877-440-4460 or visit this Internet Web site: www.mkconsultantsinc.com/trustees-sales/ using the file number assigned to this case: T1HZ-VAJJ. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice To Tenant: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction.

If you are an ‘’eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase, First , 48 hours after the date of the trustee sate, you can call 877-440-4460, or visit this internet website www.mkconsultantsinc. com/trustees-sales/ using the file number assigned to this case: T1HZ-VAJJ to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee.

Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. Important Notice: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the sale shall be subject to the following as provided in California Civil Code Section 5715: ‘’A non-judicial foreclosure sale by an association to collect upon a debt for delinquent assessments shall be subject to a right of redemption. The redemption period within which the separate interest may be redeemed from a foreclosure sale under this paragraph ends 90 days after the sale.” Dated: 9/22/2023 Schwartz Vays, as said Trustee 7255 NE 4th Ave. Unit 110-2 Miami, FL 33138 (800) 8759221 /s/ Vanessa Diaz, Trustee Dept of Schwartz Vays, as agent for Villa Alamar Homeowners’ Association, Inc Publish: October 5, 12, 19, 2023 ________________________________ FICTITIOUS BUSINESS NAME STATEMENT.

Draft Carpinteria Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) Available for Public Review In accordance with the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), the Carpinteria Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA) has developed a draft Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP), and it is now available for review and comment. The GSP is a detailed roadmap for how to ensure groundwater reliability within 20 years to safeguard our future water supply. The Carpinteria Groundwater Basin is designated a high-priority basin under the SGMA – this means our vital groundwater resources are critical as a public water supply and this plan helps identify how to protect these resources.

Community input is essential for an accurate, comprehensive GSP that reflects the needs of the community. The public is invited to provide input during the 30-day comment period from Oct. 6 to Nov. 6, 2023. The Carpinteria GSA Board of Directors will then consider adopting the GSP at a public hearing on Nov. 29, 2023.

How to Submit Comments on the GSP • Visit the Carpinteria GSA website at https://carpgsa.org and click on “Groundwater Sustainability Plan.”

• Use the online form to submit your comments.

• Written comments will also be accepted by mailing a letter to the Executive Director of the Carpinteria GSA at 1301 Santa Ynez Avenue, Carpinteria, CA 93013.

Managing triglycerides for heart health

CVN

WELLNESS WARRIOR LEAH HARDING Triglycerides are essential components of the body’s lipid profile. They are integral to overall health and heart health.

Understanding why triglycerides matter and how they differ from cholesterol is important for maintaining a healthy cardiovascular system.

Triglycerides are a type of fat found in the blood, and their primary function is to store excess energy from the diet for later use. Cholesterol, on the other hand, is a waxy substance that helps build cell membranes and produce hormones. The key difference lies in their roles: cholesterol is a structural component, while triglycerides store unused calories and provide the body with energy.

However, elevated triglyceride levels can be a warning sign for potential health problems, just like high cholesterol can be. High triglycerides are associated with an increased risk of heart disease, stroke and other cardiovascular conditions by forming fatty deposits in the arteries

This is an independent risk of heart disease and not necessarily correlated to cholesterol numbers (basically, one can be elevated without the other being elevated, though the outcome may be similar).

A low-fat diet con5050 Carpinteria Avenue • 805.566.1558 ext. 1 sisting mainly of highly processed and refined carbohydrates can actually raise BEST BAGELS SINCE 1996 triglycerides and negativelyPRE-ORDER affect your bagels 805-319-0155 health. Instead, choose whole, unprocessed foods and the right kinds of fats in appropriate amounts.

Instead of focusing solely on fat intake, try these five easy ways to lower triglycerides: Modify your diet. High intake of refined carbohydrates (especially added sugars) can lead to elevated triglyceride levels. In some cases, people who reduce their fat intake may compensate by consuming more carbohydrates, which can counteract the desired triglyceride-lowering effect. Focus on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein sources like fish and poultry.

Limit alcohol consumption. Alcohol can also raise triglyceride levels, so moderate intake or eliminate alcohol altogether.

Increase Omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids are found in fatty fish like salmon, mackerel and trout and can help lower triglycerides. Consider incorporating fish into your diet at least twice a week. Notice how nuts are not mentioned here. While they contain Omegas, they typically have more 6s than 3s and should be considered a replacement only when seafood is not an option.

Get regular physical activity. As mentioned above, triglycerides are an energy storage unit. By engaging in regular physical activity, this extra storage is used up

and blood lipids are reduced, positively affecting triglyceride levels. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise each week.

Manage your weight. Maintaining a healthy weight is crucial for managing triglyceride levels. Losing excess weight can lead to a significant reduction in triglycerides.

Consult your doctor. Medication may be recommended if all other lifestyle interventions have failed to reduce triglycerides sufficiently.

In conclusion, understanding triglycerides and how to reduce them helps maintain good health. By making thoughtful dietary choices and staying active, you can lower triglyceride levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Remember, small lifestyle changes can significantly improve your triglyceride profile and heart health.

Edward Bates and the $2,505 cottage

THURSDAY

BY STEPHEN BATES

In 1929, Edward H. Bates spent $2,505 on materials to build a cottage on Rincon Point. It’s still standing 94 years later.

Born in 1901, Edward grew up moving from place to place with his restless widowed mother. After graduating from Harvard in 1925, he came to Carpinteria, where his family owned about 755 acres of Rancho El Rincon, one of the land grant ranchos created when Mexico controlled California. The Bates property included the Ventura County side of Rincon Point.

Edward tried his hand at various jobs. He took a correspondence course on selling real estate, but after a year’s effort in Ventura, he had arranged only one transaction: the sale of a vacant lot.

It ended up falling through.

Edward and his oldest brother, Robert, talked of building a small resort on Rincon Point, along the lines of the Miramar in Santa Barbara. Edward met with Harold Doulton, whose parents had founded the Miramar in the late 1800s. Doulton told him that the success of a hotel depended on “the back of the house” – the kitchen.

To learn how to run a hotel kitchen, Edward got jobs with two chefs around Los Angeles. But the apprenticeships came to an abrupt end when he accidentally threw out gallons of consommé at one hotel. The cook began screaming at him in Italian while fingering a twelve-inch knife. Edward fled. The Rincon Miramar notion faded.

In the late 1920s, Edward bought ten acres of farmland near Carpinteria from Tom Fish for $10,000. He cleared the land, planted lemon trees and field peas, and irrigated with water he bought from a neighbor, Henry Bliss. After three years of backbreaking labor, Edward sold the parcel for $10,000, just what he had paid for it. “I discovered,” he wrote, “that money was not always the reward for hard work.” He continued working on salary (“minuscule”) as foreman of his family’s Rincon ranch.

Edward and Robert jointly purchased beachfront property on the Santa Barbara County side of Rincon Point in the late 1920s. In Edward’s recollection, they spent $25,000 for five acres. The sellers were the family of the late Reuben W. Hill.

Edward decided to build what he called “a tiny board-and-batten bachelor’s college,” the first house on the newly acquired property. He chose a spot next to a Monterey cypress atop a sand dune, with an unobstructed view of miles of empty beach.

A Los Angeles architect named Jerome Pycha had won a competition to design a beach cottage that could be built for less than $2,500. Edward got house plans from Pycha, possibly that $2,500 design. In any event, he ended up spending $2,505, mostly for materials, plus $658 for the services of a carpenter named Byron Duprey.

Duprey and Edward built the house in 1929 out of redwood, with a steep shake roof and heavy random-width solid oak floors. Crafting each door took Duprey a full day, following a Spanish design Edward had found in a library book. Although it wasn’t one of the famous Sears, Roebuck house kits, Edward learned to install plumbing from a how-to section of the Sears catalog.

While working as ranch foreman in the mid-1930s, Edward met Julia Bygrave “between irrigations” at a cocktail party in Ventura. She was a Radcliffe graduate from Concord, Mass., who was working as a schoolteacher. They married in 1936

By the late 1940s, after two decades as foreman, Edward found that “ranching lost its charm,” and he got his contractor’s license. He and Julia subsequently sold the Rincon house and moved to Santa Barbara with their two children.

For the rest of his long life – he died in 2000, age 98 – Edward’s thoughts often returned to the house he had built on Rincon Point. “What a privilege to live as we did,” he wrote in 1978, “in complete privacy, lord of all we surveyed, high on a dune with the pounding surf a stone’s throw away, and hundreds of marine birds and animals for neighbors.”

Carpinteria and Cate cross country teams take on Twilight Invite

It was a warm October day at Lake Casitas in Ojai for the annual Twilight Invitational meet, where 30 schools from across Southern and Central California gathered to compete in 1.9-mile and three-mile races.

Carpinteria’s cross country runners took on the short course, with three boys and five girls finishing in the top half of the competition.

Sophomore Edwin Hernandez was the top finisher for the Warriors boys, taking 13th place overall out of nearly 140 competitors with a time of 11:13. Junior Pedro Campuzano and Freshman Elio Taha came in at 32nd and 33rd place, finishing just under 12 minutes.

Carpinteria senior Audrey Kramer was the top finisher for the Warriors girls at 26th place with a time of 14:08, followed closely by freshman Victoria Martinez and senior Ruby Cluderay, who both finished under 16 minutes. Senior Mika Mullikin and sophomore Giarys Gomez also finished in the top half out of 130 runners.

Runners from Cate school took on the three-mile course, with brother and sister Sebastian and Francesca

Sutch taking first place in their respective races for the second time this year. Sebastian, a senior, finished the boys race with a time of 15:46, while Francesca, a junior, took the top spot in the girls race with a time of 20:26.

Several other members of Cate’s boys team set new personal records at the meet, including senior Everest Schipper, who finished third overall with a time of 16:42 ­—more than a minute faster than his time at the same course last year. Together the Cate boys team finished in second overall, behind first-place Channel Islands.

“We couldn’t be prouder of the way our teams competed today,” said Cate coach Tim Weir. “Our girls team ran well through the first two miles, but I think the heat and training at this point of the season caught up with our young team.”

Carpinteria cross country will prepare for its next test at the second Citrus Coast League meet of the year in Oxnard this week, while Cate’s runners will return to competition on Oct. 14 at the Dos Pueblos Invitational in Goleta.

Senior Audrey Kramer was Carpinteria’s top finisher in the girls short course, finishing 13th out of nearly 130 competitors.

Brother and sister Sebastian and Francesca Sutch continue to dominate this year; both finished in first place in their respective races at the Ojai Invite.

Senior Ruby Cluderay keeps the pace at Lake Casitas for the Twilight Invite.

Warriors tennis breezes through league at 9-0

SHORT

BY RYAN P. CRUZ • PHOTOS BY ROSANA SWING

Carpinteria girls tennis has been dominant all year on the court, and this week was no exception, with the Warriors taking wins over Citrus Coast League foes Malibu and Channel Islands to move to 13-1 overall and 9-0 in league play.

The Warriors were locked in against Malibu, with the teams splitting sets in the first round before Carpinteria jumped out to a two-set lead after the second. The narrow lead turned out to be enough, as Carpinteria took the close league match 10-8.

Silke Leonard and Izzy Scott both fought through contested sets, and both finished 2-1 in singles play. In doubles, partners Keyla Manriquez and Sasha Porinsh swept their sets 3-0 despite only recently starting to play together.

“Overall, we played one of our best matches of the season,” said coach Charles Bryant. “There was a lot of emotion from both sides and I am so proud of all our girls and how we responded to this strong Malibu squad. When the matches got tight, our girls really stepped up their game and it paid off in this very big win.”

Against Channel Islands, the Warriors enjoyed a complete sweep in singles and only dropped two sets in doubles to take the match by a large margin, 16-2.

Carpinteria switched up its lineup in the win, which gave some players an opportunity to play in new positions. Charlotte Cooney took a break from doubles domination to turn in a 3-0 sweep in singles, while the new duo of Clover Martinez and Linda Galindo turned in a win in doubles.

Carpinteria is now 13-1 overall and undefeated in the Citrus Coast League at 9-0.

Asher Smith’s four goals over Santa Barbara and 10 goals at the Buena Tournament were good enough to earn him another nod as Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table’s Athlete of the Week.

Warriors beat water polo powerhouse Santa Barbara

Carpinteria boys water polo continued a phenomenal second half of the season with a momentum-boosting win over traditional water polo power Santa Barbara and a dominant 24-0 shutout over Channel Islands in the past week.

The Warriors jumped out to an early 4-0 lead at home against Santa Barbara, and Carpinteria held the Dons at arm’s length the entire game to take the win, 10-5.

“Our boys stepped up big today,” said Carpinteria coach Karl Fredrickson. “We were down two key players due to sickness and injury but didn’t miss a beat. In fact, we played a fantastic team game and had great individual performances from multiple guys. Today was a test of our camaraderie and depth – proud to see our boys deliver.”

Senior Asher Smith started what turned out to be a high-scoring week with four goals in the win over Santa Barbara. Smith would later score 10 goals in the Warriors’ weekend tournament at Buena, and was named as Santa Barbara Athletic Round Table’s Athlete of the Week.

In the match against Channel Islands, it was all Warriors all day, with every player on the team scoring at least once on the way to a 24-0 victory in front of the home crowd at Carpinteria Community Pool.

It was also a breakout game for a few of the Warriors underclassmen, with junior Lucas Martin and sophomore Samuel Medel leading all scorers with two goals each and sophomore Micah Smith pitching in on the defensive side with five steals in the win.

“Our goal today was to play a clean game on the defensive end of the pool, and we did just that,” Fredrickson said.

Carpinteria then headed to a weekend tournament hosted by Buena, where the Warriors got a chance to face some top-level competition. Carpinteria finished 1-3 over the weekend tournament, taking two losses on the first day against Westlake and Long Beach Poly and splitting two games on the second day with a win over Redwood and a loss to host school Buena.

The Warriors will now prepare for the final five-game stretch of the season with matchups this week against Hueneme and Nordhoff.

Warriors golfers shine on the links and in the classroom

Carpinteria girls golf continued to improve with a good showing at the fourth Citrus Coast League Match of the year at Seabee Golf Course in Port Hueneme, where all but two Warriors golfers set new career lows and the team took third place out of seven teams.

Sophomore Jamaica Cook was the team leader with a low score of 48, although freshman Sophia Garay was nipping at her heels with a new career-best score of 49.

Sophomores Kiana Kiah and Gaby Cruz both improved on their previous scores with new lows of 53 and 55, respectively.

Carpinteria (263) finished one stroke behind second-place Santa Paula (262), while Nordhoff took the overall win with a combined score of 251.

The girls golf team also earned recognition this week with the ending of the first grading period of the year, which showed that girls golf had the best average GPA out of all Carpinteria varsity sports, with a team GPA of 4.38. All fall sports together had a cumulative GPA of 3.92.

“The Warriors are enrolled in rigorous course loads including honors and AP courses, and credit for success goes to the students, their families, their teachers, their coaches, and the school,” said Athletic Director Pat Cooney.

Carpinteria girls volleyball splits two games

Carpinteria dropped a long five-set match against Hueneme, but recovered a few days later to take a 3-1 win over Fillmore to move to 8-3 in the Citrus Coast League.

Against Hueneme, the Warriors took the lead in the first two sets before losing three straight to take the loss 3-2.

“We did not capitalize on the important points when we had to,” said Carpinteria coach Marc Denitz.

But in the next match at home against Fillmore, the Warriors recovered and took three out of four sets to claim the league win, 3-1.

Senior Amarisse Camargo stepped up in a new position and played a “monstrous match,” Denitz said, single-handedly giving the Warriors a big lead in the final set with nine consecutive service points. By the end of the match, Camargo tallied 10 kills, five digs and 14 service points.

Seniors Jenny Valencia and Ashlee Mora also contributed heavily to the win; Valencia finished with 17 assists and eight kills, while Mora pitched in with 15 digs from the libero spot.

Carpinteria is now 11-6 overall and 8-3 in the Citrus Coast League.

Carpinteria takes tough loss to Santa Paula, 42-14

Carpinteria football had a tough test this week, hosting a Santa Paula team that had gone 5-0 before taking their first loss of the year in a heartbreaking 37-35 loss to heated rival Fillmore.

At Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium, Santa Paula wasted no time getting back in the driver’s seat, and the Cardinals jumped out to a 21-0 lead in the first half.

But the Warriors would not give up, clawing back in the second half with a trick play touchdown pass from senior Judah Torres to Jayson Dishion to bring the score to 21-6. Torres, who contributes from several positions on the field, also finished with more than 100 yards on the ground.

In the fourth quarter, Carpinteria quarterback Talon Trumble bullied his way into the end zone on a two-yard run and completed a two-point conversion with a pass to Sebastian Hernandez to bring the Warriors within two scores, 28-14.

But Santa Paula broke the game open after that, scoring twice more late in the game, with the final score coming on an 82-yard run by junior Allen Macias to give the Cardinals the 42-14 win.

Carpinteria has now lost five straight games, dropping to 2-5 overall after starting the season 2-0. The Warriors will look to get back in the win column next week with a homecoming game against Cabrillo (Lompoc), a team that has yet to win a game this year at 0-7.

Sebastian Hernandez (#6) stretches up for the catch against Santa Paula’s Joseph Jimenez.

Cate School had a winning week in athletics, with girls volleyball taking back-toback sweeps over Foothill Tech and Laguna Blanca, while boys water polo grabbed an important league win over Foothill Tech to keep themselves in playoff contention.

Cate girls volleyball fought through three tough sets against Foothill Tech, with the Rams claiming all three for the sweep (25-20, 25-22, 25-19). Sophomore Oyin Opawumi had 12 kills in the win.

Against Laguna Blanca, it was more of the same, with the Rams claiming three close sets for another 3-0 sweep (25-23, 25-18, 26-24).

“Solid showing by our team tonight,” said Cate coach Jordon Dyer. “Laguna is a scrappy team with a lot of fight in them and they had us on the ropes a few times, but we were able to work through it as a team and play good volleyball.”

In the pool, Cate boys water polo hosted Foothill Tech for a league matchup with plenty of CIF playoff implications. Heading into the match, the Rams were ranked as the #17 team in Division 5 and Cate was locked with Foothill Tech at second place in the league standings.

Foothill Tech jumped out to a 4-1 lead, but Cate senior captain Remy Minnis helped bring the Rams back in the game with the first of his three goals on the day.

After the comeback, Cate took the win by a final score of 14-12. Junior captains Baye Breene and Phin Stephenson and sophomore Elliot Page all finished with three goals each in the win.

October is Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, County Supervisors say

The Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors has declared October as Adopt a Shelter Dog Month, encouraging community members to adopt shelter dogs as local shelters continue to hit capacity.

The county’s animal services currently has over 200 dogs across its three shelters. Fostering a dog is free, the county’s animal services said on its social media this week, and all adult dogs are $10 to adopt through October. The shelter’s 12 longest-stay dogs have each been at the shelter for 233 days or more.

“We are thrilled October 2023 has been designated as Adopt a Shelter Dog Month in Santa Barbara County.

By adopting a shelter dog, you not only gain a loving and loyal friend but also contribute to reducing the population of homeless animals in our community. It›s a win-win for everyone involved,” said Santa Barbara County Animal Services Director Sarah Aguilar.
