Protect our bluffs for future generations

A hotel on the Carpinteria Bluffs – no, thank you. Walking on the beautiful Carpinteria Bluffs this last week, I was enjoying the sounds of the waves crashing, a red tailed hawk calling above me and the tranquility of this natural space.

As I continued to walk, I noticed a very small Chumash bead – a strong reminder that the Carpinteria bluffs is on the Mishopshno Chumash Village and is land that needs to be protected. The “Carpinteria Farm and Hospitality Experience” wants to develop this land and build a hotel, an event space, two pools, 273 parking spaces and residential sites, but that is not what this town needs. When I was a little girl, I remember being so proud of our town for preserving the bluffs, a place that I have grown to love deeply. Well now it is time for us once again to preserve our incredible undeveloped bluffs, for future generations, the ancestors and the flora and fauna.

is a second grader in the dual language immersion (DLI) program at Aliso Elementary School. The multi-language programs my children are lucky enough to participate in are working directly towards dismantling the systemic inequities that exist in our society. Through the engagement of early educational spaces dedicated to equity, diversity and inclusion, our children are building a foundation of empathy, understanding, trust and a genuine interest in the unique and beautiful cultures that make Carpinteria the place we all want to be in.

Learning a second language early in the development of our students also pays dividends in their academic, personal and professional careers. More so than ever, creative problem-solving skills are at the top of the list for employers. Developing our students’ brains to communicate in a second language gives them the ability to view all situations through multiple sets of lenses, not to mention the ability to communicate effectively with a huge segment of our population working to achieve similar goals and objectives.

If you live, work, go to school or otherwise exist in Carpinteria then you participate in multiculturalism. Our community has invested on a number of levels in the values associated with cultural immersion. By sending our children to bilingual early childhood educational institutions we are setting them up to enjoy our community more wholly and participate more readily in the diversity that we so cherish and of which defines

us. Give your children the gift of access to our entire community – including some of the most dedicated and talented teachers in the 805.

Fight to keep Carpinteria beautiful

Carpinteria is a lovely beach town. In CVN Letters on Oct. 26, (Vol. 30, No. 6), people like Ms. Johnson and Ms. Vazquez wish to keep it that way. Chuck Graham and Mike Wondolowski raise their glasses to the great sea swells in the unpredictable wilderness and the safety of the harbor seals. Yet the folks who give homage to the beauty and loveliness of the town and represent the voters of Carpinteria, are considering just the opposite in the Bluffs Farm development. Who really benefits? I think it’s more of the same of: “Hey look over here (the water allotment), look over here (no new developments) but don’t look over there (Bluffs

Farm).” This is not a new ploy in any area of politics or personal involvement. The question is how do we fight the fight and keep the beauty we already have? Where can we look now?

Prop 19 impacts Carpinterians

Last week, many homeowners received massive property tax increases that were the result of 2020 Proposition 19, sold to voters as the Natural Disasters Act. For Carpinterians, better names would have been “Lose the Locals” or “Carpinteria Culture Wipeout.” Many with deep ties to our community have left due to sky-high real estate, and it’s about to get worse.

Proposition 19 overturned 35 years of property tax inheritance law, leading to full reassessment of homes, rentals and business properties upon death of a parent, with limited exceptions on a primary home. It took effect Feb. 16, 2021, giving families only two months after the election to make some of the most important financial decisions of a lifetime, such as to keep or transfer real estate. For those who avoided reassessment this time, Proposition 19 will eventually come for their descendants.

If your family missed the critical 2021 deadline or is fearing a shock tax bill, there is hope. There is a petition drive to repeal Proposition 19 and restore the old law. It needs 1.3 million signatures by Jan. 16 to make the 2024 ballot. For more information visit ForCalifornians.com.

VIEWPOINT

Reviewing the Carpinteria Basin Groundwater Sustainability Plan Public comments accepted through Nov. 6

BY ALAN SOICHER

A 20-year Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) for Carpinteria is now open for public comment. The purpose of the Carpinteria GSP is to ensure there is enough water in the basin to meet local needs now and in the future. The Sustainable Groundwater Management Act, the 2014 state law requiring the Carpinteria GSP, cited groundwater level declines and reduced groundwater storage when identifying Carpinteria as a high-priority basin.

As a result, the Carpinteria GSP sets an important objective: to raise groundwater levels in Carpinteria to be at or above sea level in 20 years.

What is groundwater and how does water get into the ground?

Groundwater is water that’s stored in rocks and sediments in an underground reservoir, or aquifer. In Carpinteria, most of the groundwater in the aquifer comes from rainfall that soaks into the ground.

When creeks are flowing, water also percolates through the creek beds and recharges the groundwater. The groundwater then builds in pressure as it flows from the foothills toward the ocean and pushes out into the saltwater when it reaches the coast. When inland groundwater levels are lower than sea level, saltwater can intrude into the groundwater.

What are the current groundwater levels in the Carpinteria Basin?

Chapter 3 of the GSP shows that groundwater levels in a number of local wells are 50 or more feet below sea level.

These water levels provide reduced water storage in the basin. Figure 3-69 from the GSP shows the decline in groundwater storage over 35 years, from 1985-2020.

Why are groundwater levels low in the Carpinteria Basin?

Groundwater levels decline when there are more outflows than inflows to the aquifer. In terms of inflows, the natural processes that replenish the groundwater in the basin have been impacted over time. For example, we’ve built roads and other impermeable surfaces that prevent rain from soaking into the ground.

Most of the creeks have been realigned, simplified and disconnected from their floodplains. Some creeks have been lined with concrete, and freshwater wetlands have been drained and filled. All of this has reduced groundwater recharge in the basin.

What are the natural processes that have historically enhanced groundwater re-

charge in the Carpinteria Basin?

Early maps show extensive wetlands, floodplains and forests near the creeks and foothills around Carpinteria. These are areas that would have allowed rainfall to collect and soak into the ground to recharge the aquifer. The local creeks also likely flowed for long periods of time and provided steady inflows to the aquifer. Carpinteria Creek carried sufficient flows to support a population of steelhead trout.

What can we do to achieve groundwater sustainability in the Carpinteria Basin?

It makes sense to me to do what we can to harness the natural processes that recharge groundwater. There are a lot of options to consider including stormwater retention, floodplain reconnection, creek enhancements, spreading water onto fields (as appropriate) and many others. Evaluating these options can be done through a Groundwater Recharge Plan, though that plan doesn’t exist yet for Carpinteria.

A legal document I found at the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History describes that: “In 1868 when we moved into Carpinteria all of the people on both sides of the Santa Monica Creek for a distance of one and one half or two miles on either side of the creek used the water of that creek to irrigate their lands and for household purposes, drinking, etc.” This was a historic condition in the Carpinteria Basin.

Improving groundwater recharge will require the support of landowners and the participation of many levels of government. Transportation, flood control, fisheries, agriculture and water agencies will need to be involved, as well as many others. It will also require funding. With the uncertainty surrounding future droughts, climate change impacts, and the availability of water from Lake Cachuma, there is added urgency to this work. My recommendation is to develop and start implementing a Groundwater Recharge Plan as a Tier 1 action (first five years) in the Carpinteria GSP. Public comments on the Carpinteria Basin Groundwater Sustainability Plan are being accepted until Monday, Nov. 6 at carpgsa.org/public-info/groundwater-sustainability-plan-comment-form.

Michael P. Ramirez chosen as new city manager Ramirez, current assistant city manager, has 24 years of public sector experience

BY EVELYN SPENCE Michael P. Ramirez – the city of Carpinteria’s current assistant city manager – was chosen by the city as its new city manager, staff said Wednesday morning.

Ramirez’s employment agreement is pending approval by the city council; it will be on the agenda at the next regular city council meeting, Nov. 13, according to the city of Carpinteria’s public information officer Olivia Uribe-Mutal.

“I am deeply honored. Carpinteria is an exceptionally engaged, supportive, and inclusive community, and I am privileged to be a part of it. Our remarkable staff is truly passionate about this city and their work. Carpinteria is where I belong,” Ramirez said in a press release sent out Wednesday morning.

Ramirez, who took over as assistant city manager in December 2021, has more than 24 years of public sector experience. Beyond his role as assistant city manager, he has served as interim Risk Management and Human Resources manager and intern Parks, Recreation and Community Services director.

“Mr. Ramirez emerged as the ideal candidate following a comprehensive nationwide recruitment and selection process, which featured community feedback, input from city staff, candidate interviews and careful consideration by the city council,” Uribe-Mutal said in a press release.

Before coming to Carpinteria, Ramirez worked in the city of Moorpark’s parks department for five years, he told CVN in December 2021, managing several teams. He holds a master’s degree in public policy and administration from Cal Lutheran University

Michael Ramirez and a bachelor of arts in sociology from California State University Northridge.

When not working, Uribe-Mutal said, Ramirez enjoys coaching basketball, traveling up and down the California coast and spending time with his three daughters; one of his daughters just started her first year at UC Santa Barbara.

“The council and I are absolutely delighted to announce the selection of Mr. Ramirez as our next city manager.

His track record and commitment to our community values align perfectly with Carpinteria’s mission and vision,” Mayor Al Clark said in a press release.

Carpinteria’s city manager of 24 years, Dave Durflinger, announced his retirement in January of this year, stating that it has been an honor to serve Carpinteria.

The next regular city council meeting is scheduled for Monday, Nov. 13, 5:30 p.m., at 5775 Carpinteria Ave. Agendas can be viewed online at carpinteriaca. gov/city-hall/agendas-meetings.

Former Carpinteria instructor passes away

The Carpinteria Unified School District (CUSD) has announced the passing of Dianne Paradis, a longtime teacher and district employee who worked at CUSD between 1986 and 2017.

Paradis taught kindergarten and first grade at Canalino Elementary School for more than 30 years before retiring in 2017.

“She was passionate and committed to our students, schools and community.

Dianne will be remembered with love and affection,” said CUSD Human Resources Director Diana Zapata in a statement to the district. “Our heartfelt condolences are extended to her family.”

Paradis started her teaching career at the Ventura Unified School District before she came to Canalino School, she told CVN in a June 2017 interview, “Five influential women retire from school district: Dianne Paradis.”

“My favorite part of teaching was getting to spend my career in the midst of little ones,” Paradis said in 2017. “They’re so full of joy and love and energy. It was a wonderful way to spend my time.”

Beverly “Bev” Fabbian 06/24/1933 – 09/13/2023

Beverly “Bev” Fabbian passed away peacefully on Sept. 13, 2023, at the age of 90 in Paso Robles. She was born on June 24, 1933, in Buena Park to her loving parents Earnest and Turdie Rennie. Bev grew up in Carpinteria, where she cherished memories with her family.

In 1952, Bev married Tino Fabbian, and together they raised three children: Randy, Tony and Tina. Bev was a devoted mother and grandmother, and enjoyed spending time with her eight grandchildren, two great-grandchildren and soonto-be great-great-granddaughter.

Bev is survived by her eldest son, Randy Fabbian, and his wife Paula, as well as her daughter Tina Stewart and husband Bruce. She is also survived by her daughter-in-law Sonja Fabbian. She was preceded in death by her youngest son Tony, who sadly passed away a year ago, and her great-grandson Nicholas Fabbian. Beverly is now reunited with her loved ones in heaven.

In memory of Bev, contributions can be made to Woods Humane Society, Calvary Chapel Paso Robles or the Cancer Society.

These organizations were close to her heart, and donations made in her name would be greatly appreciated.

Bev will be remembered for her kind heart, love for her family and dedication to her community. Her presence will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing her. May she rest in eternal peace.

A luncheon and reception celebrating Beverly will be held at the Carpinteria Woman’s Club, 1059 Vallecito Road, at 1 p.m. on Nov. 10.

Carole Martine Rosales 07/12/1956 – 10/11/2023

Carole Martine Rosales, born on July 12, 1956, to Martin and Beatrice Rosales, passed away on Oct. 11, 2023. She is survived by her four children, William, Winslow, Miles and Jade, as well as her two grandchildren, Cheyenne and Abigail. Carole is also survived by her siblings – sister Lorraine Fuentes and brother Marty Rosales – as well as her nephew and niece Joaquin and Brandee.

Carole grew up in Carpinteria, where she went to school. She was a wild child, a hippie. She loved flowers and spent much of her professional career working in nursery wholesale operations in town.

Her love of music was ever present, and she embodied the spirit of the song “Free Bird.” Carole loved the Allman Brothers, the Doobie Brothers, Fleetwood Mac and Bob Marley among others. She loved to dance and see live music.

Carole was a free spirit and spent much of her life seeking her true self, wisdom and knowledge. She loved to ride her bike, something that truly made her feel free. She loved going to the beach – Rincon, Tar Pits, Fourth Beach or Jacksons, South Beach and Eagle Cove. But she held nothing higher than the love of her children, all of which came to her at important times in her life, whether she was living in Washington or California.

Carole was a lot of things to a lot of people. Her smile was big and bright, and she would always take care of the ones she loved with all she had. Alas, she finally lost her battle to cancer after her first diagnosis over fifteen years ago.

Carole was a survivor; she was a mystic and a spiritual being. She lived a nomadic life and that was good enough for her.

Carole’s spirit will reverberate a frequency from her moving outward, echoing “Divine Peace and Infinite Blessings!”

A Celebration of Life will be held for her on Nov. 11 at noon at the Garden Market in Carpinteria, where we will share the life that was.

After-school therapy dog reading program begins at Canalino Elementary School

Therapy Dogs of Santa Barbara has brought several of its programs – all centered around educating students with the help of therapy dogs – to the Carpinteria Unified School District (CUSD). Programs are now open at Canalino and Aliso Elementary Schools, as well as at Carpinteria Middle School (CMS).

At Canalino Elementary School, the organization brought its ARF! Literacy Program, an eight-week after-school program where students read to licensed therapy dogs. Therapy dogs serve as non-judgmental third parties for students to read to, which can help students who are struggling with literacy, according to Carey Bradshaw, executive director of Therapy Dogs of Santa Barbara.

The literacy program runs for an hour after school on Wednesdays, and Bradshaw said the program targets students in second and third grade who are struggling with reading. “When a reluctant reader reads for a non-judgmental and nonverbal audience, their efficacy increases dramatically,” Bradshaw told CVN. At Aliso Elementary School and CMS, students can participate in Therapy Dogs of Santa Barbara’s mindfulness program, known as Wag Well. Students are taught how to stay calm through basic breathing exercises, learn the importance of controlling breath and how the brain functions.

A licensed therapy dog is present for the exercises, and all students at Aliso are expected to participate in the four-week program. Students in the CMS special education workability class will also participate in the program.

“The calming effect of petting or being near a therapy dog can promote relaxation and decrease stress levels,” Bradshaw said.

Each of the therapy dogs in the program has an online profile, as well as business cards that contain information about their personalities. Before the dogs arrive, Bradshaw said students are told which dogs will be coming, and afterward students can collect business cards from dogs they’ve visited with.

SCHOOL BOARD School trustees hear from students in leadership, FFA and engineering programs

BY JUN STARKEY

The Carpinteria Unified School District Board of Trustees heard from students on the Carpinteria High School Associated Student Board (ASB), and in the Future Farmers of America (FFA) and engineering programs at its Tuesday, Oct. 24 meeting.

The students updated trustees on new and ongoing programs at the school.

The president and vice president of Carpinteria High School (CHS) ASB, Isabella Juarez and Angel Pineda, respectively, provided an update to board members on the new passport program available at CHS for students and teachers.

The passports allow teachers and students to earn stamps for certain activities available at the high school, and the stamps enter students into a raffle to win various prizes. The program was created to inform incoming freshmen, and new teachers, about what CHS has to offer.

“Both students and staff can participate, and it’s just something fun for people who might not know what’s going on at school,” Juarez told the board.

The teacher passport system is similar to the student version, with stamps avail-

The teacher passport was created for the new instructors working at CHS. “This passport is not only helping older teachers, but is helping newer teachers in realizing the opportunities (at CHS)… teaching can be a fun job for them,” Pineda said.

Several members of the FFA club also spoke at Tuesday’s meeting, briefing board members on the chapter recently being awarded Chapter of the Year, and an upcoming trip the club will take to the

96th annual national FFA convention in Indianapolis.

“We will go through multiple leadership activities so we can bring them back to Carpinteria FFA so we can make it the best chapter we can,” said FFA President Oscar Ramirez.

For the CHS engineering program, students went over their most recent projects – including topographic maps created with a laser cutter or 3-D printer – as well as what they’ve learned from previous years of engineering or robotics.

Students have learned about different

types of printers used in engineering, such as 3-D and Co2 laser cutters, they told the board. They’ve also learned how to use the printers for projects like phone stands and chess pieces.

“Every time I see our students speak and tell us everything they do, I feel very safe regarding our future,” Gerardo Cornejo, principal of CHS, told the board.

“They are a reflection of our community, they are a reflection of the values of this community… I think our students deserve the best programs in the community, and we’re doing it every day.”

“Reasons for those resignations from our exit interviews were things like promotions, relocations, family reasons, they left the profession and several of them mentioned the distance they were driving to get to (Carpinteria),” Zapata said.

Conflict resolution

THE ART OF SELF CARE DR. DEBORAH S M I LOV I T Z FO ST E R Throughout our lives, we encounter instances of conflict. Our relationships at home, work or socially sometimes end with misunderstandings, disagreements or confusion. We really need to emphasize conflict resolution and kindness in our schools so that future generations have the ability to handle a wide variety of situations.

When I was an undergraduate at UC Santa Barbara, I received a minor in global peace and security. Now, there is an entire major setup for this topic.

When I told people in the ‘90s that was what my degree was in, they would say, “What is that?” Now I get a response of, “We definitely need more of that!” This is hopeful, because we are becoming more aware both individually and collectively of the need to learn skills in negotiating.

Most of us are taught to avoid conflict, to not make waves or make others uncomfortable. In doing so, our society has learned to avoid conflict or build up the conflicts in our lives until they are unbearable. This leads to passive reactions or aggressive reactions that are too volatile.

What we want is assertiveness – to be able to express how we are thinking and/or feeling in a direct and honest way that is not cruel, harsh or mean.

How do we accomplish this major skill? One, we must increase our awareness of what we are thinking and feeling and what we are hoping to accomplish.

Then we can find a time to meet and discuss the issues. There has to be a starting place and the conversation will likely be uncomfortable and not perfect – voices may not be of an even tone, or the words may come out imperfect. We need to start somewhere, even if that means that our words have imperfections!

Gandhi felt that fighting had its benefits. It allows for an appreciation of other points of view, enhancing our own perspective. My thesis at UCSB was focused on Gandhi’s notion of satyagraha, the search for inner truth. This is a method that encourages each side to imagine solutions that include the best features of both sides – a “win-win” approach to conflict resolution. Most of the ways that you and I fight miss the point and this leaves the real conflict unresolved, simmering in the background, ready to boil over at a later time.

We don’t need to fight every disagree-

Most of us are taught to avoid conflict, to not make waves or make others uncomfortable.

In doing so, our society has learned to avoid conflict or build up the conflicts in our lives until they are unbearable.

ment. Many of our own efforts at fighting are wasted on fights that we cannot win because these are not ours to wage in the first place. Some fights do genuinely affect us, but some should be left unfought.

The main point is to be clear on not coming from a place of fear.

Another factor is to not let our ability influence our ignoring the fight. When we are learning to negotiate disagreements the tone, language or delivery won’t be perfect. The main point is to start somewhere and practice the art of communicating about challenging topics.

Another form of conflict is misunderstandings. We might both be looking at the same tree and saying the same words, “Wow, what a wonderful tree.” The issue is that I may be thinking about the apples, and you might be thinking about how bushy the tree is. We could be looking at the same tree and saying the same words and mean something completely different. Clarification and micro-communication are essential.

One tip to reducing defensiveness is the positive-negative-positive sandwich.

Use three sentences: the first and the third can be the same, “I like you, I appreciate you listening,” and the middle would be the point of disagreement.

To recap, conflict involves a clash between people and perspectives. A forced victory will remove the person, but the conflict will remain. Accommodation and compromise allow for each side to win a little and also lose a little too. If necessary, arbitration and the law can help with the process of which side is right, but will not allow the truth of the loser’s position. The main takeaway is the notion of satyagraha which attempts to find a new position that is more inclusive of the old principles and move into a healthier, peaceful relationship.

Alcazar to host second annual reading of anti-gun violence plays

The Alcazar Theatre will once again participate in “ENOUGH! Plays to End Gun Violence”– a performance of six short plays written by young writers on the topic of gun violence – on Monday, Nov. 6 at 6 p.m.

Communities across the United States will be performing this year’s plays. Teens who wrote for the program were asked to confront gun violence by creating new works to “spark critical conversations and inspire meaningful action in communities across the country,” according to a press release from the Alcazar. “ENOUGH!” received 244 submissions spanning across 36 states.

“The youth of today is the generation that can right the wrongs by letting their voices be heard loud and clear, and we are the tool to make that happen,” Alcazar Theatre Director Asa Olsson said in the release.

The theater will also host a Q&A session with important community figures, including Das Williams, First District Supervisor; Commander Brad Welch from the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office; Becky Norton and Kavya Suresh from HopeNet of Carpinteria; and Aja Forner and Carly Bass, co-founders of Moms Demand Action.

The event is free, but donations are welcome, organizers said. Attendees are advised that subject matter includes discussions of many forms of gun violence, including school shootings, officer-involved shootings, suicide and violence against the LGBTQIA+ community.

Former locals’ works on display in SB

Two former Carpinteria artists – Tony Gwilliam and Dorothy Churchill Johnson – will have their works on display at the Silo118 Gallery, located at 118 Gray St. in Santa Barbara, from Nov. 3 to Nov. 25.

“Their work defined multiple generations,” said Bonnie Rubenstein, the gallerist for Silo118. “Tony, whose life-long commitment to creating a more perfect living environment and Dorothy, whose meticulous work showed us how the world looked from a different perspective.” A reception for the gallery will be held on Friday, Nov. 3, 5 – 8 p.m.

Locally made film holds red carpet premiere

A locally made film, “Dust & Duct Tape,” recently had a red carpet premiere at the Alcazar Theatre; the film was created by local Michael Avery, produced by Amanda Williamson and directed

by Elsha Narachi.

“Growing up in the Carpinteria valley, I was heavily influenced by Johnny Brown and all of his kitschy westerns he made in the ‘70s and ‘80s,” Avery told CVN. “Each movie usually featured a fast Cadillac, some cowboys, horses, shoot outs and saloon girls.”

“Dust & Duct Tape” was filmed on an iPhone and edited by Avery’s son Tristan Fenton. Williamson’s husband, Fred of Producer Amanda Williamson, left, and Rivahil Wines, sponsored director Elsha Narachi welcome guests to the the film. The Doublewide premiere of “Dust & Duct Tape,” a fundraiser Kings Band performed at for the Alcazar Theatre. the premiere, and vocalist John Simpson starred in the film.

“We hope it inspires others to make movies,” Avery said. “It was amazing to look around and see all of the people that raised us and their children be present last Saturday night.”

The premiere raised $3,000 for the theater, and funds were dedicated to Barbara Stoops and Mac Brown, who Avery called “some of (their) favorite supporters growing up.”

Construction Paper Turkeys

Paint those Mini Pumpkins

A classic, of course. Grab some colored construction paper – making sure to grab brown, red, orange and yellow – for those handmade paper turkeys. Don't forget the googly eyes!

An easy way to to add some flash to that holiday table setting. Fill a bowl with luke warm water, add some drops of nail polish and swirl together. Hold pumpkin by the stem, dip and let dry. Add embellishments as needed.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins ½ cup (1 ¼ ounces) sliced unblanched almonds 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour 1 cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice 1 teaspoon baking soda ¼ teaspoon salt 2 large eggs 1 cup plain pumpkin (half of a 1 pound can) ½ (1 stick) of butter, melted 1 cup (6 ounces) chocolate chips

This Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins recipe makes 12 regular or 48 miniature muffins, depending on your appetite. Pulled straight from “Muffins” by Elizabeth Alston, this favorite – courtesy of CVN photographer Robin Karlsson – is great with cold milk.

Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Put almonds on a baking sheet or pie pan and bake about 5 minutes, until browned. Mix flower, sugar, pie spice, baking soda, baking power and salt into a large bowl. Break eggs into another bowl. Add pumpkin and butter and whisk until well blended. Mix in chocolate chips and almonds. Pour over dry ingredients and fold in until the dry ingredients are moistened. Pour batter into muffin cups (you can grease the muffin cups or use paper baking cups). Bake approximately 25 minutes, until puffed. Cool.

Navigating menopause: a brief guide

CVN

WELLNESS WARRIOR LEAH HARDING In the United States alone, an estimated 6,000 women reach menopause daily.

That adds up to nearly 2.2 million women each year.

And yet, most of the women I’ve coached often feel like they are doing it alone.

Menopause is the end of a woman’s reproductive years and officially concludes after the woman has ceased to have a menstrual cycle for one year. The average age of a woman starting menopause is 51.

Perimenopause is the time before menopause when changes in a woman’s cycle, mood and sleep can be impacted.

For some, the perimenopause phase lasts only a few months or a year, but the average length is four years. Early-stage perimenopause starts from age 40-44 and can include many different symptoms or just a few. Late-stage perimenopause typically occurs in women who are in their late 40s to early 50s and is when the periods become unpredictable, less frequent and lighter.

The most common effects of perimenopause and menopause are hot flashes, mood swings and sleep disturbances. It’s also a time when losing and maintaining weight becomes harder.

There are several reasons for this.

While it’s easy to say, “it’s my hormones,”

there’s more to it than that. Doing the “norm” will probably no longer work.

Here are the reasons I see most often with my clients and why they cannot lose weight or maintain as well as before.

Hormonal changes. The primary reason is the significant hormonal fluctuations that occur during menopause.

As estrogen levels decline, it can lead to a shift in how fat is distributed in the body.

Many women notice increased abdominal fat, which is associated with various health risks.

Muscle loss. As women age, there’s a natural loss of lean muscle mass. Muscle burns more calories than fat, so a reduction in muscle can result in a decreased metabolic rate. Studies have shown that the most promising type of workout for menopausal women is strength training, which can preserve muscle mass and may also alleviate many side effects of menopause. Shoot for three times a week at a moderate intensity.

Changes in lifestyle. Menopausal women often face lifestyle changes that can affect their weight. These may include increased stress, empty-nester syndrome (when life changes as kids leave for college or adulthood), changes in physical activity levels and disruptions in sleep patterns, all of which can contribute to weight gain.

Inadequate sleep. Sleep disturbances are prevalent during menopause, leading to hormonal imbalances that affect appetite and satiety, potentially leading to weight gain. Many hormones are released while sleeping, like the growth hormone, leptin (helps keep weight stable), ghrelin (“hunger” hormone that also contributes to insulin regulation, among other things), cortisol (“stress” hormone) and melatonin (circadian rhythm).

Dietary choices. Changes in metabolism and hormonal fluctuations may require adjustments in dietary habits that previously worked well. Specifically, increasing protein will help preserve

Remember that maintaining a healthy weight during menopause is not just about appearance – it’s about promoting overall health and well-being. Everyone’s body is different, so what works for one person may not work for another. muscle mass and build more muscle.

Making sure that protein is at adequate levels can be a game changer. Additionally, for some people, carbs might need to be reduced. This doesn’t mean carbs are the enemy or that they should be avoided at all costs, but reducing carbs to a modest level has helped some women keep a better balance when it comes to weight. Paying attention to food quality and loading up on veggies is one easy way to ensure the carbs consumed are good quality, fiber-filled and will benefit a menopausal body.

Reduced physical activity. Many women may become less active due to menopausal symptoms, such as joint pain, fatigue or aging. This does not necessarily refer to workouts but less movement in everyday life, what is referred to as NEAT (non-exercise activity thermogenesis). NEAT typically makes up about 15% of Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), while exercise typically only makes up about 10% of BMR. It’s worth noting that a “solution” many women come to is that they need to eat a lot less to lose weight. Unfortunately, what should be a short-term diet becomes a habit. I have so many clients who come to me wanting to lose weight and have already been at 1,200 calories for months or years without any weight loss.

The only way to undo the damage of

chronic undereating is to increase protein and calories for months and possibly years to reset the system. When used in short bursts with frequent diet breaks, undereating can be a solution but it will never be the answer long-term.

The weight loss issue is often complicated when a menopausal woman does a lot of cardio, thinking it will burn more calories. If strength training is not tolerated, walking would be a better idea than high-intensity cardio, like spin classes or running.

Remember that maintaining a healthy weight during menopause is not just about appearance – it’s about promoting overall health and well-being. Everyone’s body is different, so what works for one person may not work for another. If something isn’t working, change it. Experiment and see what feels good and what feels better to find what’s sustainable over the long term.

On the first Thursday of each month, CVN publishes the Honor Roll to thank readers and advertisers for their generous support.

For the past 14 years, this support has played a critical role in keeping CVN in the stands each week and full of local news that cannot be found in any other media. The outpouring of support inspired by the Honor Roll has established a deeper connection between the newspaper and its readers. Additionally, the hundreds of names that appear in the Honor Roll send a message to advertisers: Carpinterians are dedicated to their local newspaper.

In turn, the staff of CVN is dedicated to its readers. As the publishers of your community newspaper, we appreciate the relationship we have with you, our readers, and we pledge to keep bringing you all the news of the Carpinteria Valley.

THROWBACK

Shaping surf history: How Jimmy Metyko captured a 1980s Rincon revolution

THURSDAY

BY VINCE BURNS

A gorgeous book documenting a key moment in our local surf history has appeared: Jimmy Metyko’s “Shaping Surf History: Tom Curren, Al Merrick, California 1980-1983” (Rizzoli, $55). Its 304 pages, coffee table size and many, many lush color and black and white photos dripping with saltwater are a feast for the eyes, just as much as a rich historical document of early 1980s Rincon Point and nearby beaches.

Jimmy is a top-notch pro photographer these days, but his talents were already on display back in the day as he learned and then mastered the fine art of film photography at the Brooks Institute – that is, when not prowling local surf breaks with several legends-in-the-making surfing friends.

Forty years later, we live in an all-digital photographic era, but Jimmy’s raft of photographs, taken both from the beach and the water, hold up well and may surpass the best that megapixels offer today.

Two stories in one

On one level the book is, as promised, a lavish record of the extraordinary waves of the early 1980s and the young surfers who rode them. But there’s also a story within a story, the book’s hook: the similarly extraordinary partnership between Tom Curren and Al Merrick that formed and peaked in the early 1980s just like the era’s swells.

The partnership centered on Curren’s precocious surfing genius and Merrick’s shaping and design innovations. By coherently telling the story – in words and pictures – of the early 1980s, Jimmy Metyko (b. 1959) has created a beautiful document of and testament to 805 surfing during this remarkable period. The hyper-talented and committed individuals who stepped up to this historical moment changed not only our local surfing history, but also surfing’s global trajectory.

The main story running through the pages is the rise of Curren (b. 1964) who exploded onto the local scene as a teenager. But exploded may not quite be the right word since Tommy’s father Pat (1932-2023) was a big-wave icon and since Tommy’s precocious abilities were already the stuff of local legend by the late 1970s. But the best was yet to come: three world championships in 1985, 1986 and 1990.

Plenty of other surfing stars are given the Metyko print and photo treatment in these pages. The most important for our Rincon-centric perspective is the great Kim Mearig (b. 1963), who requires no introduction – she won a world championship in 1983. In many ways, Kim’s story matches Tommy’s. After all, they were coevals, classmates and teammates on Merrick’s Channel Islands surf team. As Curren did for the men, Mearig likewise set a powerful but classy and composed Santa Barbara-style standard for top local women surfers today.

Besides the stunning talent on hand in the early 1980s, the second key ingredient to the story is the rise of master shaper Al

Tommy Curren at Rincon Point in the 1980s, shot by Jimmy Metyko from the water.

COURTESY METYKO

Jimmy’s talents were already on display back in the day as he learned and then mastered the fine art of film photography at the Brooks Institute – that is, when not prowling local surf breaks with several legends-in-themaking surfing friends.

“Shaping Surf History” by Jimmy Metyko is 304 pages and includes many lush color and black and white photos dripping with saltwater.

Merrick and his fabled Channel Islands Surfboards label. Merrick (b. 1944) refined the tri-plane hull board design into what seemed to be perfection, while at the same time serving with his family as a mentor for Curren. Underlining the point: several of the best photos in the book are on the beach, showing Merrick mid-instruction with Curren and other CI team members.

The final factor was the seemingly nonstop run of storms and swells in the early 1980s, capped by the biggest of them all: the epic El Niño of 1982-83. Many of us born before ca. 1965 will remember this winter in some way or another. (Our own memory is meeting my grandmother at Rincon one night for what was predicted to be a watery assault on the Point and its housing. Although a bulldozer was on hand to fend off the worst, the Point survived the assault.) The upside: all those storms meant regularly huge local surf.

So it was that the convergence of surfing genius, board-making wizardry and rare weather produced the raw material for great surfing moments, but the wild card was having someone on hand to record the action. Photographs of epic early Rincon swells are relatively hard to come by. We have a couple shots of big waves in the 1950s, and one sensational shot from December 1969, but sustained documentation of the biggest of swells prior to the “modern era” is rare. Fortunately, in this case, we had Jimmy M. loading film and snapping, loading film and snapping gorgeous shot after shot of the action. Whether it was Hollister Ranch, down toward Malibu or our beloved Rincon Point, Metyko was there to record it all on actual lush film, not in ones and zeroes and bits and pixels, for us to enjoy so many years later.

Especially enjoyable are the large numbers of non-wave photographs, which give us a glimpse into 805 surf subculture.

For example, Metyko documents the last great gasp of localism in photos and text.

Although it may not seem so to some of us, the 1980s were a long time ago and photographs of this seemingly carefree

era (and its neon wetsuits and occasional big hair) bring the period back to life.

On one level, Jimmy M. stumbled into – and became part of – one of the greatest surfing stories of all time. On another, it was his commitment, hard work, and nose for a great story that led him to embed himself within the tight-knit community around Curren and Merrick that was leading a second surfing revolution at Rincon (the first: the rise of the shortboard). So, what if a few photography classes at Brooks had to be skipped in the process? We are all supremely lucky that Metyko skipped them to be on hand to record the magical moments on film and has now set down the story permanently in this beautiful book.

Vince and Stephen Bates have written “the” history of Rincon Point. It’s available locally and online at.amazon.com/ dp/1467108707. Sadly, David Kuzen, a much-loved fixture in the 805 surf scene and informant to this column, passed away in October in Indonesia. A celebration of life is planned.

Family and friends show Warrior Spirit on Senior Night

Community celebrates outgoing senior class; Carpinteria closes out 2023 season 2-8

BY RYAN P. CRUZ • PHOTOS BY ROBIN KARLSSON It was Senior Night at Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium on Friday, and Warrior spirit was out in full force as friends, family and former players showed up to support the senior members of the Carpinteria football team in their final high school game.

The past four years have been a wild ride for the senior members of the Carpinteria High football team: when they came in as freshmen in 2020, the pandemic forced a near shutdown of the season and the Warriors played only two games, losing both and finishing 0-2; as sophomores in 2021, the team struggled through a grueling 0-10 record.

Last year, the team recovered with a 4-6 record, and this season the team started out 2-0 before dropping seven games in a row to head into Friday’s game with a 2-7 record.

The Warriors came into the final game determined to put on a show for the home

fans and hopefully pick up one last win, and senior Jayson Dishion got the fireworks started early, taking a trick handoff from senior Sebastian Hernandez on the opening kickoff and running 85 yards for a touchdown, lighting up the crowd and giving Carpinteria an early 7-0 lead.

On Nordhoff’s first offensive drive, running back Sol McGarey broke away for his first touchdown of the game with a 76-yard run to tie the score at 7-7. Later in the first quarter, McGarey got into the end zone a second time with a nine-yard run to give the Rangers a 14-7 lead.

Carpinteria responded on the very next drive with junior Sawyer Kelly delivering a 67-yard touchdown strike down the right sideline to Hernandez to tie the score once again at 14-14.

In the second quarter, McGarey helped give Nordhoff the lead with two more rushing touchdowns and a two-

point conversion to extend the Ranger lead to 28-14. With under a minute left before halftime, Carpinteria’s senior kicker Raul Reyes knocked in a 33-yard field goal to send the teams into the break with the score at 28-17.

The second half was a defensive showdown, with Carpinteria holding Nordhoff’s offense scoreless for the rest of the game.

Late in the third quarter, Carpinteria senior Judah Torres brought the Warriors within four points with a one-yard touchdown run to bring the score to 28-24.

In the fourth quarter, however, Nordhoff ran out much of the clock by moving the chains with a few first downs, giving Carpinteria only two minutes to try and win the game.

On the final drive, Carpinteria nearly reached midfield before being forced into a fourth and long situation with

only a minute left in the game. The Warriors failed to get a first down, and Nordhoff took the win with a final score of 28-24.

McGarey led Nordhoff with 362 rushing yards on 42 carries, scoring all 28 points with four touchdowns and a two-point conversion.

With the loss, Carpinteria finished the season 2-8 overall, losing three of those games by six points or fewer. The team proved to be a tough contender all year long, despite playing with only about 35 players total, forcing many team members to play on both sides of the ball.

After the game, the senior members of the football team, cheerleading squad and marching band stuck around to snap a few photos and soak in their last few minutes on the field with friends and family.

League champion Carpinteria water polo falls in CIF Playoffs

Warriors water polo was dominant all year long in the Citrus Coast League, averaging nearly 22 points a game and outscoring league opponents 124-6 on the way to an undefeated 6-0 league record and Carpinteria’s sixth league championship in a row.

Carpinteria closed out the regular season with yet another impressive win over league opponent Hueneme on Oct. 25, with the Warriors showing a balanced attack and a staunch defense, defeating the Vikings 22-0 with every single Warrior scoring a goal in the victory.

Senior Asher Smith once again led the charge with six goals, three assists and three steals in the regular season finale.

“I’m very proud of the season our boys have put together,” said Carpinteria coach Karl Fredrickson. “They’ve worked hard, pushed and supported one another, and represented Carpinteria and Citrus Coast League aquatics with pride and integrity.

Today’s game was a final showcase of just that.”

Due to the program’s success in the pool in recent years, the Warriors have jumped up several divisions for the CIF postseason; while much of Carpinteria’s league opponents compete in Division 6, the Warriors have been placed in the Division 2 Playoffs for the past two years.

This year, the Warriors had a tough draw in the first round of the Division 2 Playoffs, with Carpinteria playing host to the 22-4 El Dorado Eagles from the high-powered North Hills League.

In the playoff game, El Dorado jumped out to a quick 4-1 lead in the first quarter, but the Warriors answered back in the second quarter, bringing the score within two goals before the Eagles snuck in a last-minute before halftime to send the teams into the break with a score of 6-3.

In the second half, Carpinteria clawed back within two goals, though El Dorado managed to score each time the Warriors threatened to close the gap, with the Eagles eventually breaking away with an 11-6 lead heading into the fourth quarter.

The Warriors turned up the tempo in the final quarter, launching a barrage of shots that seemed to bounce off the crossbars, post or the Eagles’ goaltender – though none found the back of the net until there was only two minutes left in the game.

Carpinteria scored one more late goal to bring the score to 12-8, but there wasn’t enough time to make a late rally, and El Dorado took the playoff victory and eliminated the Warriors from playoff contention.

“We didn’t get the result we wanted today but we battled from first whistle to final horn and there’s not much more a coach can ask for than that,” Fredrickson said. “Warriors water polo was on full display – I’m extremely proud of our boys for their fight, camaraderie and humility in such a game as this. It’s a bittersweet end to our season, but it’s an end that was on our terms, an end that we fought for. Warrior spirit never dies.”

With the loss, Carpinteria finished the season at 18-8 overall, and 6-0 in the Citrus Coast League in Fredrickson’s first year taking over the program.

The game also served as the farewell performance for the team’s six seniors – Smith, Jackson Melton, Eli Sheaffer, Kristian Main, Cody Schwasnick and Griffin Yamaoka –who have all played a large role in helping Carpinteria climb up the California water polo ranks.

Warriors girls tennis prepares for postseason

Carpinteria girls tennis completed the regular season, and the Warriors are playoff-ready after a strong showing at the Citrus Coast League Individual Tournament and a win in the team’s final dual match of the year against Laguna Blanca.

At the Citrus Coast League Individual Tournament at Hueneme High School, Carpinteria’s top doubles duo of Charlotte Cooney and Keyla Manriquez provided the highlight of the day with a win over Nordhoff’s number-one duo in two sets (6-2, 6-3).

Cooney has now won the Citrus Coast League doubles title two years straight after winning in last year’s finals with partner Ariana Lounsbury.

Carpinteria head coach Charles Bryant said both players played really well in the win. “Keyla was just solid all around. She kept things simple and made very few

errors on the day. Charlotte was all over the court. She was not going to be denied a second championship and gave her best effort on every point,” he said.

In the third-place doubles match, Carpinteria partners Allison Banks and Sasha Porinsh put up a close fight against the league’s #1 ranked duo, though in the end, the Warriors girls fell in two sets (6-3, 7-5).

“The whole match was close, and Allison and Sasha really shined today,” Bryant said. “Had it gone to a third set, I believe our girls would have pulled it out. They were really starting to figure out how to win.”

In singles, Carpinteria’s Izzy Scott had an opportunity to earn a spot as an alternate in the CIF Sectionals with a win in the third-place match, and she stepped up and delivered in two straight sets (6-0, 6-0).

Cooney and Manriquez will compete in doubles in the CIF Sectionals on Nov. 20, while Scott will be an alternate for singles.

“Overall, it was a great day for the girls,” Bryant said. “It was a fun van ride home and the girls were very complimentary of each other. Their spirits were high, and I was very proud of how they all performed. They had tough competition these past few rounds, but they all stepped up their games and played at a high level.”

The Warriors put the icing on the cake with a team win in Carpinteria’s final regular season match against Laguna Blanca. It was the Warriors’ first dual match in 10 days, and the team was recovering from an exciting day at the league tournament, but Carpinteria got right back in rhythm and ousted the Owls, 11-7.

Singles players Scott, Valeria Zamora, Taylor Tremblay and Silke Leonard all teamed up to go 9-0.

Carpinteria finished the regular season 17-3 overall and 12-0 in the Citrus Coast League, and the Warriors will face Rio Mesa in the first round of the CIF Division 4 Playoffs.

CHUCK GRAHAM

CRUZ ON SPORTS R Y A N P. C R U Z

A college football pilgrimage As long as I can remember, I have been a Grade-A college football fanatic.

On Saturdays, right after my cartoons and cereal, the television would switch over to football, where it would remain for the rest of the day as I watched and jumped around the living room, tackling couch cushions and pretending I was out on the field.

But even as a kid, I was drawn to one team and one team only: the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

There were plenty of reasons to love Notre Dame. For one, my mother has always been a diehard Irish fan. The mix of Catholic and football tradition drew her in and I followed along, learning all the ins and outs of Notre Dame lore: Knute Rockne’s Four Horsemen in the backfield in 1924; the seven Heisman trophies and eleven National Championships; the unmistakable “Golden Dome” helmets with actual 24-carat gold mixed into the paint, giving

it the same shine in the sun as the main building on campus; and of course, the ultimate sports underdog story of Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger.

My family has been lucky enough to see Notre Dame play on the West Coast, at Stanford and the University of Southern California, but we have always wanted to go and experience a full Saturday in South Bend at Notre Dame Stadium. This year, for my mother ’s 60th birthday, my sister and I finally decided to make the pilgrimage out to Indiana with our family to see the Fighting Irish in person.

As soon as we got to South Bend, the scene was what can only be described as college football heaven. The crisp October air, leaves covering quaint sidewalks and an undeniable presence of Irish fans everywhere. On the campus, brick buildings built over a hundred years ago welcome visitors, and we followed the crowd to the bookstore (where my

It was an old-school football-watching experience – complete with wooden bleachers that were probably decades too old by now – but having 80,000 people squeezed together all pulling for Notre Dame was without a doubt one of my favorite memories.

girlfriend and I had to contain ourselves from buying everything in sight) and then to the Basilica of the Sacred Heart and Golden Dome building, where we heard the Notre Dame Bagpipe Band open the daily ceremonies with a show.

The experience was surreal – I had seen all of these moments in movies, read all about them in books, but to see it with my own eyes was almost overwhelming.

Just around the corner from the Basilica was the famous Grotto, where hundreds of candles shone on the hundreds-of-years-old rocks and geese skittered across St. Mary’s Lake just a few steps away. From there we walked over to the campus library, with its iconic “Touchdown Jesus” mural overlooking the stadium, and where the team made its “Victory March” through the throngs of people and into the locker room before the game.

And that was just the beginning.

Once we entered the hallowed brick walls of Notre Dame Stadium and laid our eyes on the field, it was almost more than I could handle. After years of anticipation, the buildup and fanfare all day long on campus, the hours and hours on planes, trains and automobiles getting there, it had all finally come to fruition and was just as beautiful as I had imagined.

It was an old-school football-watching experience – complete with wooden bleachers that were probably decades

too old by now – but having 80,000 people squeezed together all pulling for Notre Dame was without a doubt one of my favorite memories. I’ve been in dozens of stadiums, but never have I seen a place where almost everybody in the crowd was engaged and participating at that level.

It helped that the Irish were unstoppable that day on the field. We witnessed Chris Tyree’s 82-yard, zigzagging, tacklebreaking punt return for a touchdown, which got the scoring started early. From there, it was big play after big play as Notre Dame built up a 51-0 lead before Pitt scored its first points of the day. By the end of the game, Notre Dame was on top 58-7.

What impressed me the most was that almost the entire crowd stayed through the end of the game, even with the lopsided score. They, like my family, had probably traveled a long way to get there, and were going to soak in every last moment, hear every last note from Notre Dame’s famous marching band, no matter what.

It was by far one of my favorite lifetime experiences, and just cemented my love for the deep tradition of Notre Dame football. I hope one day to return to South Bend and do it all over again.

Despite a tough playoff loss, the Cate girls volleyball is still all smiles after a successful 2023 season.

Cate Rams Roundup

The Cate girls volleyball team played a tough first round matchup against Moorpark, falling in three straight sets, while the Rams boys water polo team snagged a first-round victory in the CIF playoffs and the undefeated girls tennis team prepared to make its own deep postseason run.

The Rams girls volleyball team closed out its season with a hard-fought battle

against Moorpark, with Cate falling in three sets (25-22, 25-20, 25-8).

“Hats off to Moorpark,” said Cate coach Jordon Dyer. “We embraced the challenge and fought together as a unified front all the way to the end, which showed what our program was about when our backs were against the wall.”

Sophomore Oyin Opawumi had another efficient night with 13 kills, while senior captain Melanie Davidson left her fingerprints on her final match, leading the team with ten assists and eight kills. It was also the final game for seniors Simran Sharma and Josie Frazer.

“It’s a bummer to see this season end, especially with the seniors who led this team,” Dyer said. “The silver lining is we undoubtedly improved steadily throughout the season and had so many special moments in the face of adversity.”

Cate’s boys water polo team secured second place in the Tri-Valley League and also earned a spot in the CIF Division 5 Playoffs. In the first round, Cate outlasted El Rancho 18-13 to advance to the second round where they will face La Quinta on Nov. 2.

The Rams girls tennis team completed a perfect 12-0, dominating in the Tri-Valley League Individuals Tournament and securing First Team All-League honors for all six Cate players in the tournament.

The singles final was a match between two undefeated Cate players, with freshman Lisa Hasebe defeating senior Alyna Takahashi to claim the title.

The unbeaten Rams will now face Hoover in a head-to-head matchup in the first round of the CIF Division 3 Playoffs.
