Santa Barbara Foodbank reports “critical shortage” of turkey donations

As of Tuesday, Nov. 14, Santa Barbara County Foodbank – which serves low-income community members across the county – has received 252 turkeys out of its 4,000-turkey goal.

Foodbank CEO Erik Talkin said there has been a spike in the number of people needing to use the Foodbank. This year, the Foodbank served 230,000 individuals, a 40% increase from last year; currently, one out of four people in Santa Barbara County are facing food insecurity, the public information officer Leana Orsua said, and 38% are children.

The organization cited increased food and gas prices, inflation, the expiration of pandemic-related food programs and a lack of affordable childcare and affordable housing as reasons for the uptick in Foodbank usage.

CITY BEAT Carbon filtration systems should be used in local cannabis sites, city council says

4  Thursday, November 16, 2023

BY ATMIKA IYER

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California

Letter sent to county details concerns over cannabis odor

Carbon filtration systems – also known as carbon scrubbers – should be used in cannabis cultivation sites that impact recreational, residential and educational areas of Carpinteria, the Carpinteria City Council said in a letter sent to the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors on Monday, Nov. 13.

This letter is the product of an earlier discussion during the Oct. 9 city council meeting, when Councilmember Roy Lee requested staff compose a letter to the county “to designate the use of activated carbon filtration as the sole best available control technology to mitigate nuisance cannabis odors within the Carpinteria Valley.”

Carbon filtration systems – an odor control technology that has risen to prominence in the county over the last few years – have been discussed at several city and county meetings in identifying what methods of odor control to use for newly approved cannabis-cultivation sites.

While not mandated by the current county cannabis regulations, the County

The Ever-Bloom cannabis operation at 4701 Foothill Road in Carpinteria installed more than 100 carbon scrubbers last year.

Planning Commission and the Board of Supervisors have on occasion required it for specific projects in place of the vapor phase technology that’s currently mandated for the county’s cultivation sites.

“We note that in several recent applications for cultivation operations in

the Carpinteria Valley that have been considered by the (County) Planning Commission and Board, the use of carbon filtration has been required or upheld, and we support and encourage county decision-makers and staff to continue to do so,” the city’s letter states.

Though community members have complained about cannabis odor for years, cannabis odor control is still a developing technology, and the county has struggled to pinpoint specific sources of odor from individual grows.

“Based on experience with the use of vapor phase systems in the Carpinteria Valley over the past nearly seven years, it has become clear that such systems are inadequate by themselves to prevent nuisance odors from escaping and affecting neighboring residents and uses,” the letter states.

“Given the increasing adoption of carbon filtration amongst recently considered cannabis cultivation applications, and resultant improvements in air quality – related to odors – it is our opinion that carbon filtration alone should be considered as the sole (best available control technology) when considering applications for new cannabis operations or when reviewing existing cannabis operations for compliance with CZO regulations.”

The letter was approved with minimal discussion from the council and no public comment.

City council recognizes Boys & Girls Club members for outstanding attendance

The city council recognized members of the Carpinteria Boys & Girls Club on Monday, Nov. 13 for achieving gold card status, meaning they have attended 105 days or more in the program.

CEO of United Boys & Girls Clubs of Santa Barbara County Michael Baker explained the significance of Club 105 to the council and meeting attendees, stating that the “magic number” is 105 days of attendance.

“If we can get a member to attend the club for 105 days in the same calendar year, those members are twice as likely to graduate high school in time and twice as likely to lead a healthy lifestyle,” Baker said. “The children that we have here tonight have all achieved that status, and I want to thank the city of Carpinteria for recognizing them tonight.”

Mayor Al Clark called the names of 30 Carpinteria Boys & Girls Club members as Vice Mayor Natalia Alarcon handed each child their certificate.

City launches new service request portal

Public Works Director John Ilasin unveiled the city’s new service request portal – which has switched to a more user-friendly platform – during the Monday night city council meeting. The portal exists both as a website and as an app across Apple and Android devices, called “city of Carpinteria.”

This new platform will also hopefully reduce the physical paperwork associated

with service requests, staff said. “Now, you can take photographs of a particular area of concern and upload it on the platform on your mobile phone,” Ilasin explained. “What’s also nice about this platform (is) it’s an internal ecosystem where city staff can communicate directly on that platform with the service requester.”

Public commenters complain of e-bike usage at Salt Marsh

At least five public commenters came to the Monday night city council meeting to complain about e-bikes being ridden in the Carpinteria Salt Marsh, despite bikes being banned from the area by city council ordinance.

“Many of us here tonight live facing the salt marsh, we have spectacular views,” public commenter and Carpinteria Planning Commission Chair Jane Benefield said. “We used to have an abundance of critters and especially birds, but these pleasures have been diminished by the dreaded electric bike, and bikes in general, and dogs – none of which are allowed there.”

She clarified that she was at public comment “speaking to you as a commoner, not a planning commissioner.”

Concerns about aesthetics were paired with concerns about safety and the need for bike barriers at the Salt Marsh.

“It’s been bad enough for the last 10 years, but now with the advent of the electric bikes, it gets a little scary out there and someone is going to get hurt if we don’t prevent electric bikes especially from being in there,” public commenter Rob Denholtz said. “We do need bike barriers.”

From supervisor to assemblymember: Gregg Hart reflects on one year in California Assembly seat

BY EVELYN SPENCE

Before California redrew its assembly districts – placing all of Santa Barbara County’s approximately 446,000 residents and 47,000 southern San Luis Obispo County residents in one newly-minted 37th Assembly District – now Assemblymember Gregg Hart said he had been content working for the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors.

“I wasn’t looking for change,” he told CVN. But then, now 38th District Assemblymember Steve Bennett rang him up in late 2021 and said California districts were being changed – a new assembly district, representing all of Santa Barbara County, was emerging.

“California is a leader for the whole country – it’s the fourth largest economy in the world,” Hart told CVN. “And having a say in that venue is important, in particular, to represent our community (…)

People are not (in Santa Barbara County) by accident. They’re invested in the community. They want it to be preserved.

“It’s a great place to work and represent.”

One year after the election, Hart sat down with CVN to reflect on his first year in office. One of the biggest challenges of his new job compared to the supervisor position? Getting a majority to pass a bill.

“The biggest challenge on the board of supervisors was that I just had to count to three to get to a majority,” Hart told CVN. “In assembly, it takes 41 votes to get a bill passed, and the governor has to approve.”

Born and raised in Santa Barbara County, UC Santa Barbara alumni Hart served on the Santa Barbara Board of Supervisors for four years before making the jump to assemblymember and assembly assistant majority leader. He has spent more than 30 years serving the county publicly: on the planning commission, as a city council member, a member of the California Coastal Commission and as a supervisor.

Hart said he spent a good portion of his first year as an assemblyman getting to know his colleagues, but he cited three bills he’s particularly proud of authoring: Assembly Bills 590, 631 and 1345.

Nonprofits that receive California state grants and contracts must spend their money, then be reimbursed by the state, often facing long wait times to be reimbursed. Assembly Bill 590 allows state agencies to dole out 25% of up-front payments, easing the burden on nonprofits. “(Santa Barbara County) has more nonprofits per capita than just about any other place in the country,” Hart told CVN. “(The bill) was the number one priority of the California Nonprofits Organization (…) I’m very proud.”

Assembly Bill 631 harshened penalties and fines for oil and gas companies that harm local communities, including those in Santa Barbara County. The old pay structure, Hart said, was ancient, and introduced at a time when oil companies had more influence.

“For some operators, (those old penalties) just became the cost of doing business. (AB631) will now bring these

“People are not (in Santa Barbara County) by accident.

They want it to be preserved.”

Hart cited the oil company then known as Greka as an example of a company that the new penalties may have stopped; the oil company “invested as little as possible,” Hart said, and walked away from the environmental disaster in north Santa Barbara County.

Assembly Bill 1345 helps protect homeowners from predatory real estate practices; in California and across the county, Hart said, a new unscrupulous business practice preys on seniors, where companies offer seniors long-term real estate listing contracts that can be enforced by liens on their homes.

“If they want to get out of their contract, the equity on their home is at risk,” Hart said. “We got a bill (by) working very close with the real estate industry, which was initially concerned about the

bill. But we found a compromise that (…) prohibits these practices that prey on people.”

All three of these bills, alongside five of Hart’s assembly bills, were signed into law by California Governor Gavin Newsom.

Beyond the direct assembly bills, Hart said he worked with the county government earlier this year when the early winter storms hit Santa Barbara County, encouraging the governor to declare a disaster.

He also emphasized that working with 19th Senate District Senator Monique Limón – calling her a “great ally and tremendous mentor” – has been a high priority. The pair worked together on the state budget, where, among other requests – with Limón in the lead, he said – they allotted funding for Heal the Ocean to cap the leaking oil wells off the coast of Summerland.

The pair also banned together with other legislators from Ventura to Santa Cruz, to create the Central Coast Legislative Caucus – a caucus that addresses the needs of the entire central coast, raising the visibility of the area and helping put the Central Coast on a more even level with Los Angeles and San Francisco.

The jump to assembly has been an adjustment – in particular, the commute between Santa Barbara and Sacramento each week – but Hart said he is proud of what he’s accomplished in the past year.

Beyond the approved bills and other disaster relief work, Hart cited bringing back Sidewalk Hours, where constituents can come and talk directly with the assemblymember, and allotting $2.5 million for a historic 1927 Lompoc theater as noted accomplishments.

Over the next year, Hart said he will work to further address affordable housing issues – an issue he noted acutely affects Santa Barbara – and homelessness, expanding the “tiny cabin” format many local governments have used to get homeless community members off the streets. He would also like to see the commuter rail line between Ventura and Santa Barbara County return, an effort that is currently underway.

“I had a great track record with eight of the bills I got to the governor’s desk, and I hope to be successful again,” he said. “(This job) is a lot, and yet it’s very gratifying. I have a big responsibility, and I take it seriously.”

Monte Vista Park going to the dogs

The recent decision by the Carpinteria Planning Commission to establish a dog park in Monte Vista Park not only betrays the park’s neighbors, it also defies common sense.

The city capitulated to relentless pressure from C-DOG and its members, who tirelessly lobbied city hall for public resources. Such efforts by a 501c charitable organization have raised eyebrows.

Even more disconcerting is the misinformation campaign by C-DOG members claiming that 40% of Carpinteria households own a dog that requires an off-leash dog park. In reality, off-leash interactions depend on dog temperament, age, health and training. Many dogs, due to these factors, do not thrive in social settings with other dogs. These dogs may exhibit fearfulness, shyness, introversion, reactivity or even aggression.

Inexplicably, the city has recklessly pushed the dog park into Monte Vista Park which is unsuitable. Monte Vista Park is a cherished haven in Carpinteria’s highest-density neighborhood. Parking in and around the park is overcrowded.

The park serves as an essential space for neighborhood children who generally don’t have a backyard. It is regularly used for sports and family gatherings, such as volleyball and soccer. As such, the entire park plays a pivotal role in residents’ quality of life. Dog park noise would be a problem in any residential area – let alone an overcrowded one.

Furthermore, the proposed multi-story Red Tail Bailard Avenue Housing Complex next to Monte Vista Park already threatens the area. Long derided as Legoland, our working-class neighborhood is now where unwanted projects everywhere get dumped. It might be time for us to bark.

Rosie Blue Carpinteria

Monte Vista dog park makes sense

The Carpinteria Planning Commission has voted to move forward with a pilot program to create a small (14,400 square feet) fenced area on the southeast corner of Monte Vista Park, adjacent to Pandanus Street.

This section of the park is rarely used for sports due to numerous trees and uneven ground, so it’s perfect for a dog park as it will not be taking space away from other activities. The designated dog park area is also on the opposite end of the playground and picnic tables, and therefore it will not interfere with those activities.

Monte Vista Park is nestled between two highly dense condominium complexes which are home to over 600 residences.

National statistics suggest more than 40% of American households have dogs, which equates to an estimated 240 dogs within walking distance of Monte Vista Park. Erecting a fence will help protect both children and dogs by isolating the dog concentration away from youth CARPINTERIA

sports, children and picnickers. The fence will make it less likely for dogs to run out into the street chasing bicycles, skateboards, cats and squirrels. The fence facing the inside of the park will also help keep soccer balls from being kicked out into the street. C-DOG volunteers and neighbors (including myself) will be on-site during random times to monitor usage and help educate the community on dog etiquette and socialization. So, to sum it up, the Monte Vista dog park makes sense!

Responding to noise complaints

Island Brewing Company (IBC) has a 22-year history in Carpinteria. There isn’t a day that goes by that we aren’t thankful to call Carpinteria home. With recent complaints from a few residents regarding our live music, we’ve felt it necessary to respond. IBC has offered live music since its inception. We support many non-profit organizations, many of which call upon the magic of live music for their events; some have taken place at IBC. In many ways, the music scene of a town is an indication of its liveliness. Our music stops at 9 p.m., what most would consider to be a reasonable hour.

IBC was recently portrayed as malicious and intentionally vindictive at city council for ignoring noise complaints, increasing volume and aiming amplification equipment toward the neighborhood, all claims that are patently false.

We’ve had numerous conversations with local law enforcement who have visited and left perplexed, as we are operating within our permits. Since the complaints started, we have taken steps to mitigate the noise. We have moved our music indoors, we have dismantled our outdoor stage and we have erected shade sails which we are hoping will help.

There is no denying that live music is a draw for visitors and locals alike.

There is genuine concern that emerging city permits will drastically curtail live outdoor music throughout Carpinteria going forward and that the future will be a little duller for our town. This includes other establishments that have live music.

There are over 122,000 square feet of buildings proposed where the Chumash once roamed freely and where we currently can hike and recreate with local birds and wildlife nearby.

Yes, we are facing yet another massive development with hotel space, restaurants, spas, pools and other amenities described in the proposal. Carpinterians don’t need or want a Bacara/Rosewood/ Biltmore on our sacred Bluffs property.

The Carpinteria community did not preserve 52 acres in 1998 for any development to use our nature preserve and playing fields as an amenity to a hotel development.

Citizens for the Carpinteria Bluffs was organized in 1996 with a simple, strong mission statement: “The goal of the Citizens for the Carpinteria Bluffs is to preserve the Carpinteria Bluffs as open space.” We will again stand firmly against this project and lean into our mission statement. As concerned Carpinterians, you can follow us and join us on Instagram, Facebook, our website and through our local paper, the Coastal View News.

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California

City celebrates opening of Santa Claus Lane Bikeway Caltrans, SBRoads and members of Carpintria’s city government celebrated the completion of the Santa Claus Lane Bikeway after more than a year of construction on Wednesday, Nov. 8, with dozens of cyclists, pedestrians and officials attending the ribbon cutting.

“This (bikeway) allows residents and visitors to ride and walk from Carpinteria, up to Santa Claus Lane and beach, then continue on into Summerland,” said Carpinteria Mayor Al Clark at the ceremony.

“Having it located on the beach side of Highway 101 makes it a nicer journey… Many people have been using it during the temporary opening and we expect that trend to continue.”

Along with the bike path, improvements have been made to the intersection of Estero Street and Carpinteria Avenue, to create safer pathways for pedestrians and cyclists. A vehicular turnaround was also built on Santa Claus Lane to improve access to the bikeway and allow for traffic to continue down Santa Claus Lane, rather than onto the freeway.

“This bikeway will unite Carpinteria with Santa Claus Lane like never before,” said Board of Supervisors Chair and SBCAG Director Das Williams. “This project has been in the County’s long-term plans since 1977, and now it’s finally here. This bikeway will improve access to the beach and local businesses, and also provide a better regional connection for people who want to commute to work or recreate.”

In a press release, SBCAG Executive Director Marjie Kirn added that she would like to thank the community for “pushing for this project” and understanding the challenge construction brings.

Estimated groundwater extraction in the Carpinteria Groundwater Basin

BY ROBERT MCDONALD, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE CARPINTERIA GROUNDWATER SUSTAINABILITY AGENCY

Many of our agricultural customers have received letters discussing the Carpinteria Groundwater Sustainability Agency’s (CGSA’s) crop-based groundwater extraction estimates. We have received many follow-up letters and phone calls in response to the estimations with questions regarding the restructured fees.

It is important to note that the CGSA fee is not a new fee; the methodology is being revised from a parcel acreage-based fee to a pumping-based fee.

All properties overlying the Carpinteria Groundwater Basin (CGB) have been charged an acreage-based CGSA fee on their property tax statements for Fiscal Year 2023 (July 1, 2022 – June 30, 2023) and Fiscal Year 2024 (July 1, 2023 – June 30, 2024). This includes all single-family residences, condos, townhomes, commercial and industrial facilities and local businesses, in addition to agricultural properties above the basin.

The rationale behind the FY2023 and FY2024 acreage-based fees was that these properties were benefitting from groundwater, whether it be from a Carpinteria Valley Water District (CVWD) water meter, private well or both. Using this method, all properties benefiting from groundwater or who had access to groundwater contributed to funding the Carpinteria Groundwater Sustainability Agency (CGSA) in an amount that was

proportional to the size of their property.

If CVWD supplied water or private well water was not utilized on the property, that property was eligible to file a request for review and possible determination of fee exemption.

Many property owners and members of the Groundwater Sustainability Plan Advisory Committee (GSPAC) encouraged the CGSA to move to a pumping-based fee rather than an acreage-based fee so that only those extracting groundwater, including the Carpinteria Valley Water District, would be charged proportionally based on the quantity of groundwater they extracted from the basin. Using this method, actual groundwater users help fund the projects, programs and monitoring required to meet Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) requirements and ensure that adequate groundwater is available to everyone in the future.

The process of moving to a pumping-based fee is multifaceted. So far, this involved examining and measuring crops using GIS software, calculating crop factors, summarizing known metered water use from CVWD for Fiscal Year 2022, calculating the estimated demand of the crops using these crop factors and then subtracting the CVWD metered use to come up with a parcel’s estimated groundwater extraction. An aerial image was flown in Summer 2022 for numerous federal, state and regional government entities, which was used for the crop acreage measurements and shown on the maps accompanying the extraction

All properties overlying the Carpinteria Groundwater Basin have been charged an acreage-based CGSA fee on their property tax statements for Fiscal Year 2023 and Fiscal Year 2024. estimate letters. Crop factors were calculated by looking at the known water use on agricultural properties without wells and one crop type. The average application of water used per acre for that particular crop during Fiscal Year 2022 was calculated, with outliers on both ends being removed.

These estimated groundwater extraction letters were sent out in October 2023 to the owner of the property using mailing information provided by Santa Barbara County’s assessor’s office. If you did not receive a letter with an estimate, it could be because your property’s water demand (the amount of water calculated to water the crops identified on your parcel) did not exceed your CVWD metered use and no groundwater extraction was calculated. If you have any concerns regarding not receiving a letter you can reach out and confirm that no estimated extraction was calculated for your parcel or get a copy of the letter that was mailed out.

If you received a letter and do not have

a well, do not share a well with a nearby property or have crops that need to be corrected, please respond in writing by the end of the calendar year. The intent of the fee is not to charge those who are not pumping groundwater so that the CGSA fee is only distributed amongst those who are. This analysis and your feedback regarding any crop or acreage corrections on your property is the first step in moving to groundwater pumping fees for Fiscal Year 2025 (July 1, 2024 – June 30, 2025).

We will review individual requests as we receive them and will contact property owners if a site visit or additional information is required. For more information about the CGSA, please visit carpgsa.org and sign up for e-mail updates to stay up to date.

Robert McDonald is the general manager of the Carpinteria Valley Water District and the executive director of the Carpinteria Groundwater Sustainability Agency. He can be reached at bob@cvwd.net.

CUSD celebrates National School Psychology Week CVN

SUPERINTENDENT’S DESK DIANA RIGBY CUSD SUPERINTENDENT

During the week of Nov. 6-10, schools throughout the United States celebrated National School Psychology Week (NSPW), highlighting the important work of school psychologists helping all students to thrive.

This year’s theme is “Let’s Grow Together,” inspired by the importance of both personal and shared strengths in our growth as individuals and school communities in every season of life. The theme recognizes every aspect of growth as fundamental to effective learning environments and to school psychologists’ role in supporting student well-being and learning.

I’d like to celebrate and thank the Carpinteria Unified School District (CUSD) school psychologists: Rob Santiago, at CHS; Megan Feller, at Carpinteria Middle School (CMS); Katie Lewis, at Canalino Elementary and Carpinteria Family School; Jenny Aldredge, at Aliso Elementary and Summerland Elementary schools; and Ashley Somics, preschool.

Appreciation

I would like to recognize Athletic Director Pat Cooney, the Carpinteria High School (CHS) Boosters, coaches and CHS student athletes for a terrific fall season of high school athletics. Girls golf, tennis and volleyball, as well as the boys water polo and cross country teams participated in the post season playoffs!

Parent involvement

Parent participation in their child’s education is critical to academic achievement, and we are pleased with the high parent attendance for the elementary parent conferences this week. Teachers carefully prepared student progress reports to help parents understand student grade level progress as well as to provide home support activities to reinforce reading, writing and math skills. All students need to read a minimum of thirty minutes per night and practice math facts to increase fluency and automaticity.

We expect that elementary students will be reading and mastering math skills at grade level by the end of fifth grade to ensure academic success in middle and high school. We depend on parents to make reading and practicing math facts priorities in their homes, and we are grateful for their partnership.

AI Workshop for Educators

CUSD administrators and a CHS teacher participated in the AI Workshop for Educators last week at Cold Springs School to learn more about AI tools for teachers.

All students need to read a minimum of thirty minutes per night and practice math facts to increase fluency and automaticity.

One of the more promising tools is MagicSchool, powered by Open AI’s text generation algorithms, which can assist teachers with lesson planning, differentiation for special education students, more engaging assignments, assignment choices for students based on Universal Design Learning, decodable texts for struggling readers, multi-step assignments, projects, rubrics, academic content and report card writing. Principals are sharing these tools with teachers during staff meetings.

Congratulations

Congratulations to CHS students, Keilly Hernandez, Karina Morales, Paola Torres Garcia and Yulia (Fay) Polunets and their English teacher, Ms. Gilbert, for receiving Honorable Mention in EdHat for their scary Halloween stories.

CMS Volleyball

CMS has expanded after-school sports to include weekly volleyball on Wednesdays from Oct. 15 through Dec. 13. Twenty five CMS students are enjoying their participation, and they have learned how to pass, serve, volley and spike the ball.

The California Healthy Kids Survey (CHKS) is the annual, anonymous online assessment for students, parents and staff in grades five, seven, nine and 11.

It is focused on the five most important areas for guiding school and student improvement, including: student connectedness, learning engagement/motivation and attendance; school climate, culture and conditions; school safety, including violence perpetration and victimization/ bullying; physical and mental well-being and social-emotional learning; and student supports, including resilience-promoting developmental factors (caring relationships, high expectations and meaningful participation).

The 2023-24 CUSD CHKS is available between Nov. 27 and Dec. 15, and we encourage all grades five, seven, nine and 11 students, staff and parents to complete the online survey. Survey links will be distributed by school principals.

Students from The Howard School – including Parker Ervin, pictured running through the obstacle course – participated in the 2023 JumpA-Thon on Friday, Nov. 3.

Howard School jumps for annual fundraiser

The Howard School celebrated its annual Jump-A-Thon on Friday, Nov. 3, with students from preschool through eighth grade participating in the efforts to raise money for school improvements, teacher grants, art projects and more.

The Jump-A-Thon is a twist on the classic jog-a-thon, with students jumping rope rather than running laps, to raise money for their school. This year, the school also provided an obstacle course and jump rope challenges to elevate the event; the top fundraiser was Samantha Walker, who raised $2,700.

“The Jump-A-Thon is a cornerstone of the school’s broader mission, which places significant emphasis on specialty programs encompassing art, music, theater, foreign language, technology and of course, physical education,” read a press release from the school.

Omar Velasco to perform at Alcazar

Omar Velasco, a Los Angeles-based singer and songwriter, will perform at the Alcazar Theatre on Sunday, Nov. 19, with an opening performance from Santa Barbara artist Elena Shelton.

Velasco has collaborated or toured with many renowned artists and groups, including Jonathan Wilson, Jim James, My Morning Jacket, Poolside and Father John Misty. His second and most recent LP, “Like the Fruit Falls from the Tree,” came out in June 2023.

“This album results from his unwavering faith in music’s redemptive and creative nature,” said Connie Geston with the Alcazar Theatre.

Shelton, a singer-songwriter from Santa Barbara, will open for Velasco on Sunday. Her music, according to Geston, draws inspiration from Irish folk, psychedelic indie and experimental artists like Kate Bush and Bjork.

The show will begin at 7 p.m. at the Alcazar Theatre, 4916 Carpinteria Ave.; doors open at 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $25 for general admission.

Wullbrandt mural relocated to Linden Avenue

KARLSSON

John Wullbrandt’s iconic avocado mural “The Carpinteria Valley: A Growing Heritage” – which was removed from 4960 Carpinteria Ave. last year – was reinstalled on the Linden Avenue-facing wall of the Chrisman California Islands Center on Saturday, Nov. 11; from left, Rosa Markolf, Brian Mootz, Jeff Renlie, Joe Interlande, John Wullbrandt, Charley Meier, Kirk Connally and Jose Cordova helped with the installation. The 10-panel, 40-foot-long mural was initially put up in 2017, after a commission from Carpinteria Beautiful. It was funded by donations from Carpinteria’s agricultural community.

IMPROVE CORE STRENGTH, COORDINATION, AND STAMINA

BY VALERIE GARDNER

If shopping ads or recipes for the perfect side dish have got you thinking about the holidays, you are not alone. This time of year brings with it an interesting mix of emotions. Many people experience excitement in anticipation of their favorite holiday traditions (and food!) as well as spending time with people they love. At the same time, uneasy feelings such as stress and anxiety can also come to the forefront. For example, perhaps you dread the execution of a family holiday meal, or you’re worried if everyone will get along. You may also deeply miss family and friends who are unable to attend or no longer alive. For some, grief or loneliness can outweigh excitement and joy.

After many years of riding the holiday emotional rollercoaster myself as well as helping clients cope with holiday stress, I’ve developed some strategies that help maintain a sense of calm and make the holidays a little more enjoyable.

PLAN AHEAD. We want to plan ahead emotionally. For example,

if the holidays bring up feelings of loneliness, look for ways to keep yourself busy on the holiday itself, like volunteering at a local soup kitchen. Plan a walk with a friend or a Zoom with family members. Find ways to connect – with people or pets – as connection is the kryptonite of loneliness. On the practical side, think about your plans ahead of time. If you’re hosting, create a “to-do” list with a timeline. Spread out the tasks and make small, daily steps toward your goal.

DELEGATE. If you’re hosting a gathering, do not feel that you need to take on everything yourself! Don’t be afraid to assign tasks to those who are willing and able to help. Remember, the worst they can say is no.

HAVE REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS. It’s understandable to be disappointed with an event because it went differently than expected.

To counter disappointment, notice your expectations and keep them realistic. Most of the time we don’t even realize we have them at all.

PLAN FOR GRIEF. The holidays can bring up strong emotions as we miss loved ones or revisit memories of past hardship. Don’t let the grief surprise you. Acknowledge it and give it the attention it deserves.

Reach out for support if you need it. You may also want to find a way to honor the memory of that person you miss most by preparing their favorite dish or setting a place for them at the table.

TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. Whether this means taking a short respite outside during a family dinner or just a few deep breaths, don’t forget about yourself! If you like to exercise to let off steam, be sure you don’t miss your workout sessions due to the holidays. If you have time for a 20-minute walk, take it! Exercise and time in nature are great ways to boost our mood and lower our stress levels.

AVOID HOT TOPICS. Redirect the conversation around the table if the topic of politics, war or some other divisive issue arises. Don’t risk that the conversation “might” go just fine. It rarely does. You can institute a “no politics zone” for family gatherings, citing this article as your excuse!

HELP YOUR FUTURE SELF. At the end of this holiday season, write yourself a note in your “reminders” app on your phone and set it to send to yourself next October. Reflect on what worked well and what changes you’d make for next year. Don’t forget to be kind to yourself in the process.

THE BOOK NOOK Carpinteria Community Library recommends...

“The Lemon Tree: An Arab, a Jew, and the Heart of the Middle East”

by Sandy Tolan

We’re getting a fair number of requests from patrons wanting to know more about Israel and Palestine and the original source of the conflict between them. It is very challenging to find a well-written book on the subject without a clear bias. Sandy Tolan takes a crack at it, using a story based on factual information and toggling back and forth in time. Tolan did a considerable amount of research on the topic prior to writing this novel. Of course, the story does not include the recent atrocities; however, it does give a basic grounding of the issues.

Of the two young adults at the heart of this story, one is Palestinian and the other Jewish. Through their 35-year friendship, they are tested by historical events, politics, loyalties and perspective. We can all be more empathetic when we relate to the humanity of others. The book is a good introduction to some of the intractable issues of that part of the world and presents a personal connection to each of the characters. The story is not perfect, and the book does get tedious in parts. If you would prefer, the young adult version is also available.

In addition, the Carpinteria Community Library has a number of books on the topic of Palestinian and Israeli history for those wanting more depth and understanding.

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California with his people for a picnic and witnesses many wonders: spiders sailing on their webs, fog rolling in and out from the sea, lobsters crawling in from the sea and hiding under rocks while they shed their old shells and grow new ones, seals arriving from the north to have their babies, a blossoming wild pear tree and always the wind and the tide and the birds. The exquisite description of the island’s beauty, its seasonal changes and its teeming life are pure poetry.

This curious kitten wonders about the little island all surrounded by water – how is it a part of the world? To get some answers he pulls a fish from the sea, a very wise fish that assures him that deep down under the sea the island is indeed connected to the world. Of course, silly kitten does not believe so the fish says, “Come and I will show you.” The kitten cannot swim, so fish says he has to take it on faith. And what follows is one of the best discussions of faith, knowledge and connection. We see the magnificence of nature and the mysterious unity of all life. We learn that we are each a world unto ourselves and a part of the great big, beautiful world.

This review of a children’s book is dedicated to Dianne Paradis, who shared her love of books and stories and reading with her lucky students over the years she taught at Canalino School.

‘Tis the season to have fun while being active CVN

JOYFUL AGING L E S L I E SO KO L Holidays mean fun activities to look forward to and time with family and friends. The holidays are usually a wonderful time for all ages, but they are an especially important time for seniors.

Festive social interactions, where friends or family come together to celebrate together, do wonders for mental health and keep feelings of loneliness and isolation at bay. Time with others is critical at all stages in our lives but as we age, the holidays provide opportunities to reflect on our lives, share our experiences with loved ones and create new memories that will bring us joy throughout the year.

Share memories and traditions with the younger generations. Reuniting with children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren is a wonderful bonding opportunity. Some fun activities you can do together include driving around town and enjoying holiday lights and decorations, cooking and sharing a meal together, singing holiday and Christmas carols, looking through family albums, doing arts and craft projects and watching holiday movies. All of these are great ideas for lifting spirits and sharing joyous times with loved ones!

Take time to reflect and look ahead.

The holidays are a great time to think

This charming story is simple and profound, a perfect example of a children’s book worthy of being read by everyone, especially out loud with a loved one.

The holidays are usually a wonderful time for all ages, but they are an especially important time for seniors.

about the year that just passed. Seniors can be very busy later in life or get lost in retirement. Make this holiday season a time to take a break, slow down and reflect on what has happened during the year and begin to make plans that excite you for the upcoming year.

Reconnect spiritually with yourself and others. The holidays are a wonderful time to reconnect with your faith.

Many families incorporate a religious or spiritual element into their holiday celebrations. This might be a great time to give thanks for all of the many blessings in your life.

Give back and help your community.

Many seniors are involved in volunteer activities during the holidays. From caroling to coat drives, there are many opportunities to serve others less fortunate and in need. Volunteering is important because it provides you with a sense of purpose and allows you to be active and utilize your talents and abilities.

Stay active. During the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, it’s easy to feel drained and fatigued with all the preparations and added activities that come with this time of year. One of the best ways to manage the holiday season is to incorporate exercise into your daily routine. It will keep your energy levels soaring during this festive time. Regular physical activity is not only good for you, but it also gives you more stamina to get things done. Whether it’s a brisk morning walk, a quick workout or a fun activity, you will reap the benefits throughout the whole day.

In my “For the Young at Heart” dance and fitness classes, which are specifically designed for seniors, I like to keep everyone’s spirits high and get fully engaged, especially during the holiday season. We begin with upper body exercises, calisthenics, stretches and basic combinations with our arms and legs. Lively, festive and popular holiday music motivates us to do Jazzy dance steps and routines.

Dancing with others is a great way to focus on your health while having fun and socializing with others. So, grab your partner and friends, head out on the dance floor and get your body and spirit moving to the beat.

May your holiday season be joyous and full of health and happiness!

During the gathering, club members honored those in the community that have served the community and the country, including veterans, first responders, the Community Emergency Response Team and the Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District. “(Former) President Clyde Freeman graciously acknowledged our Lions Club members who have bravely served as veterans,” said President David Hayman in a press release. “While Vice President Ray Lane highlighted those among us who have selflessly contributed as first responders (…) The Carpinteria Lions Club thanks and honors our veterans and first responders.”

Unwelcome cooking advice and nonprofit donations CVN

THE SEAWITCH SAYS AMY OROZCO Dear Amy O, This bothers me all year, but the holidays really amplify the annoyance – people giving me cooking advice in MY kitchen. Julia Child I am not, but I’m an accomplished cook, receive many compliments and am often asked to make my signature dishes for gatherings of family and friends. What to do?

Signed, Recipe for a Disaster Dear Recipe for a Disaster, I’m the same way and I barely am considered a competent (at best) cook. Sure, someone giving an alert to turn down the flame under the almost-boiling-over pasta water or a heads up that it’s sugar, not salt, you’re about to add to the gravy – now that’s an entirely different thing.

You asked, “What to do?”

First, let’s take the premise that the guilty parties aren’t aware of how obnoxious their behavior is and truly believe they are being helpful. No malice involved. They probably want to spend time with you, feel they need to help or are uncomfortable in other hubs of activ-

ities around the house.

Here are some suggestions as to what you can do: Ask family members who reside with you to help keep guests out of the kitchen while you are cooking. They could engage them in conversation in the living room or show off the new bathroom remodel.

Have an activity outside the kitchen to engage unsolicited advice-givers. For example, if college football dominates all the TVs, how about changing one’s channel to a Hallmark Christmas Movie marathon, or have an unfinished jigsaw puzzle available and near the action, like in the same room as the biggest TV airing a football game.

Assign a chore – taking dinner drink orders and opening the wine, refilling the appetizers, cutting the pies – so the person feels they are contributing to the meal in some way.

Huffpost.com advises, “We’ve all had those guests who won’t leave the kitchen and won’t stop telling you how wrong you’re doing pretty much everything with the food. Actually, invite them to taste and give their opinions. When they’re done, thank them and usher them back out of the kitchen with the promise you’ll tend to their suggestions. If they persist politely suggest you’d love to attend Thanksgiving at their house next BEST BAGELS SINCE 1996 • PRE-ORDER bagels 805-319-0155 year.”

BEST BAGELS SINCE 1996 • PRE-ORDER bagels 805-319-0155 I think Huffpost.com is off the mark.

That’s enabling the behavior. It’d be different if it was the advice-giver’s first visit to your home, like maybe your son’s soon-to-be fiancé. For regular offenders,

you may have to be a bit more territorial, yet gentle and kind. I remember often hearing my mom say, “The best thing you can do is stay out of the kitchen.”

The holidays are here, say the Halloweenists, so let’s brace ourselves for a multitude of annoyances. It’s not too late, or early, to prepare oneself to cope with them.

And everyone, let’s refrain from giving advice in the kitchen or anywhere else unless specifically asked for it. You soon will see huge positive changes in life, guaranteed.

Dear Amy O, I gave money to a Carpinteria nonprofit and never heard anything from them. The check was cashed. My name was to be included on a public display of supporters. I’m miffed. I don’t want to hear anything about giving is its own reward. I donated because I wanted to see my name publicly displayed.

Signed, Kind of Reminds Me of the Pharisee in the Temple Parable

Dear Kind of Reminds Me of the Pharisee in the Temple Parable, I’m guessing you just wanted to get that off your chest, as opposed to receiving some advice because you didn’t ask for any. Well, get it off your chest you did, and in a very public forum at that.

Methinks, you have done a great service for both other snubbed donors and errant charities.

I applaud your self-honesty and candor. I couldn’t agree with Shakespeare more: To thine own self be true. The world would be a better place if more of us were honest about our motives, which doesn’t mean I applaud or not applaud them.

And if I may, a piece of advice: Call the nonprofit and tell them what you told the rest of Carpinteria. Then, you will have done two great services for snubbed donors and errant charities.

Former CVN editor Amy Marie Orozco loves living in Carpinteria, including all the sometimes socially sticky situations happening in our seaside setting. Along with giving advice (only when asked), Amy O edits Cannabis by the Sea Magazine. Have a question for her?

NOTICE OF APPLICATION AND PENDING ACTION BY THE DIRECTOR OF THE PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT TO: WAIVE THE PUBLIC HEARING ON A COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT THAT MAY BE APPEALED TO THE CALIFORNIA COASTAL COMMISSION AND APPROVE, CONDITIONALLY APPROVE, OR DENY THE COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT This may affect your property.

Please read.

Notice is hereby given that an application for the project described below has been submitted to the Santa Barbara County Planning and Development Department.

This project requires the approval and issuance of a Coastal Development Permit by the Planning and Development Department.

The development requested by this application is subject to appeal to the California Coastal Commission following final action by Santa Barbara County and therefore a public hearing on the application is normally required prior to any action to approve, conditionally approve or deny the application. However, in compliance with California Coastal Act Section 30624.9, the Director has determined that this project qualifies as minor development and therefore intends to waive the public hearing requirement unless a written request for such hearing is submitted by an interested party to the Planning and Development Department within the 15 working days following the Date of Notice listed below. All requests for a hearing must be submitted no later than 5:00 p.m. on the Request for Hearing Expiration Date listed below, to Tatiana Cruz at Planning and Development, 123 E. Anapamu Street, Santa Barbara 93101 2058, by email at cruzt@countyofsb.org, or by fax at (805) 568 2030. If a public hearing is requested, notice of such a hearing will be provided.

WARNING: Failure by a person to request a public hearing may result in the loss of the person’s ability to appeal any action taken by Santa Barbara County on this Coastal Development Permit to the County Planning Commission or Board of Supervisors and ultimately the California Coastal Commission.

If a request for public hearing is not received by 5:00 p.m. on the Request for Hearing Expiration Date listed below, then the Planning and Development Department will act to approve, approve with conditions, or deny the request for a Coastal Development Permit. At this time it is not known when this action may occur; however, this may be the only notice you receive for this project. To receive additional information regarding this project, including the date the Coastal Development Permit is approved, and/or to view the application and plans, or to provide comments on the project, please contact Tatiana Cruz at Planning and Development, 123 E. Anapamu Street, Santa Barbara 93101 2058, or by email at cruzt@countyofsb.org, or by phone at (805) 568-2082.

The property is a 0.53 acre parcel zoned 20 R 1 and shown as Assessor’s Parcel Number 007 321 006, located at 141 Hixon Road in the Montecito Community Plan area, First Supervisorial District.

APPEALS: The decision of the Director of the Planning and Development Department to approve, conditionally approve, or deny this Coastal Development Permit 21CDH OOOOO 00041 may be appealed to the County Planning Commission by the applicant or an aggrieved person.

The written appeal must be filed within the 10 calendar days following the date that the Director takes action on this Coastal Development Permit. To qualify as an “aggrieved person” the appellant

must have, in person or through a representative, informed the Planning and Development Department by appropriate means prior to the decision on the Coastal Development Permit of the nature of their concerns, or, for good cause, was unable to do so.

Written appeals must be filed with the Planning and Development Department at either 123 East Anapamu Street, Santa Barbara, 93101, or 624 West Foster Road, Suite C, Santa Maria, 93455, by 5:00 p.m. within the timeframe identified above. In the event that the last day for filing an appeal falls on a non business day of the County, the appeal may be timely filed on the next business day.

This Coastal Development Permit may be appealed to the California Coastal Commission after an appellant has exhausted all local appeals, therefore a fee is not required to file an appeal.

For additional information regarding the appeal process, contact Tatiana Cruz.

Public Hearing Notice Considering Adoption of Carpinteria Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) In accordance with the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), the Carpinteria Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA) has developed a draft Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP).

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 by the State under the SGMA – this means our vital groundwater resources are critical as a water supply and this plan helps identify how to protect these resources.

The Carpinteria GSA Board of Directors will consider adopting the GSP at a public hearing at 5:40 p.m. on November 29, 2023. The public hearing will be held at the Carpinteria City Council Chambers located at 5775 Carpinteria Ave., Carpinteria, CA 93013.

THROWBACK

U.S. 101 at Rincon: the road not taken

THURSDAY

BY STEPHEN BATES

In the late 1950s and early 1960s, Carpinterians fought with the state about the future of Rincon Point. As is often the case in California, this fight about the future took the form of a fight about roads – specifically, U.S. 101.

The coastal road at Rincon Point had evolved considerably. Motorists at first drove on the beach, tides permitting. The renowned wooden causeway opened in 1912, replaced in the mid-1920s by a paved two-lane road behind a concrete seawall, which in turn gave way in the late 1940s to a four-lane divided highway behind a riprap wall.

By the late 1950s, the state wanted to increase the highway’s capacity to six lanes. The Division of Highways (now Caltrans) proposed to cut through two hills and reroute the road through Rincon Canyon. According to state engineers, the new road would be straighter and therefore safer. The rate of accidents on the current route was about twice the average for California highways. The new route would also be around two-tenths of a mile shorter, which would save fuel.

And it could be constructed with minimal interruption of traffic.

Carpinterians – at least the ones who spoke up – hated the new route. At a meeting of the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors in 1959, Rincon rancher J. M. Eakins argued that the route would gobble up some 60 acres of orchards and residential land. (He was no engineer, he said; these were his “cowboy” estimates.) He also contended that changing the airflow through the canyon might invite frost and endanger the orchards that remained.

Three years later, in 1962, the state was still promoting the inland route, and Eakins was still fighting it. At a hearing at the Veterans Memorial Building in Carpinteria, he called the proposal a “monstrosity.” He also complained that the Division of Highways kept changing its measurements and cost estimates. “I’m sorry to say it,” he said, “but I doubt the good faith of the state.”

Another Rincon rancher, R. W. Bates, emphasized aesthetic considerations.

When state engineer E. R. Foley said that the inland route would save money, Bates asked him what value the state placed on natural beauty. Foley replied that beauty is impossible to evaluate, so the state assigned it a value of zero. Bates considered that approach shortsighted.

Earth Day was still eight years away,

COURTESY CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION LIBRARY

Upgrading U.S. 101 along the shoreline route required moving some five million cubic feet of dirt. Much of the soil ended up in Rincon Canyon, where it formed a new mesa – the bald expanse in the upper right quadrant of this 1970 photo. It’s now the site of houses.

It has been about 50 years since this immense construction project on the 101 by Rincon Point. What will happen in the next 50 years? but some Californians were growing skeptical about mammoth highway projects. In a letter to the Santa Barbara NewsPress, Harry S. Ashmore of Santa Barbara said that California roadbuilders would cheerfully obliterate any historical landmark or natural wonder “if it happens to be on the way to anywhere.”

The inland route vexed Rincon Point residents for a different reason. With a new 101 through Rincon Canyon, it appeared that the southbound lanes

of the old 101 would become a county road. Rincon Point residents feared that the northbound lanes would become a parking lot for beachgoers. (The state and Santa Barbara County parking lots at Rincon came later.)

Carl W. Haggerty, secretary of the Rincon Point Homeowners Association, said that additional parking would “leave us the mercy of surfers and beach bums.”

He claimed that residents already had to bring in their patio furniture at night to

keep surfers from using it for bonfires.

The Carpinterians favored an alternative approach, a shoreline route that would widen and straighten the 101 near its current path (slightly inland) by shaving off the side of Rincon Hill and moving the railroad tracks. But according to the Division of Highways, this shoreline route would displace a “tremendous surplus” of soil, estimated at 4.3 million cubic yards, which would have to be stashed somewhere. (With the inland route, it seems, the soil from the Rincon Hill cuts would be used to level part of the canyon.)

Despite the surplus soil and all the other concerns, the opposition prevailed.

Later in 1962, the state abandoned the inland route in favor of the shoreline

COURTESY BATES FAMILY

Starting in the late 1950s, the state proposed to reroute and straighten U.S. 101 near Rincon Point. The path, cross-hatched on this document, would have cut through two hills and filled part of a canyon. Opponents of the proposal probably prepared this map. They ultimately prevailed.

Barney Connaughton, shown here, worked as a site superintendent on the U.S. 101 construction around Rincon. This undated photo, looking toward Carpinteria, shows the enormity of the project.

THROWBACK continued from page 22 route. J. M. Eakins rejoiced to the Santa Barbara News-Press: “We have stopped the highwaymen in their march through our lovely country.”

For funding reasons, construction on the Rincon 101 didn’t get underway until 1968. The project ended up displacing more soil than initially estimated, some five million cubic feet. Some people wondered if the soil could be used to widen the beach at Rincon Point. Instead, much of it got hauled into Rincon Canyon to create a mesa, which is now the site of several houses.

It has been about 50 years since this immense construction project on the 101

by Rincon Point. What will happen in the next 50 years?

“Our main concern for this location is climate resiliency,” said Jim Medina, the public information officer for the Caltrans

district that includes Ventura County. The agency expects that the 101 will need to be safeguarded from sea-level rise and wildfires.

Caltrans also anticipates that travelers in 50 years will have more options.

Train service between Goleta and Ventura is likely to increase, according to Medina, with connections to the Metrolink commuter rail service toward Los Angeles. The California Coastal Trail will keep expanding, too.

Bicyclists in 50 years may be able to get from Carpinteria to San Diego County without fighting traffic.

That might turn out to be the best feature of U.S. 101 in 2073: You won’t have to use it.

Stephen Bates is coauthor (with Vince Burns) of the book “Rincon Point,” on sale at the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History and elsewhere. He is a professor of journalism at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Winter Warriors ready for new seasons

Carpinteria girls water polo, boys and girls soccer and basketball start this week

BY RYAN P. CRUZ • PHOTOS BY ROSANA SWING When the sun starts setting earlier and the air gets a sudden chill, it signals that winter is coming, and in the sports world, that means it’s time for a new slate of sports seasons.

At Carpinteria High School, the winter athletics lineup includes the defending Citrus Coast League championship Warriors girls water polo team, and both the boys and girls soccer and basketball teams.

This week, CVN has a sneak peak of what to look forward to in Warrior sports this winter.

Girls Basketball

The Warriors overcame a slow start to the season last year and made a late-season push, winning five out of their last eight games and narrowly missing out on the postseason with a 13-13 overall record and 5-7 record in the Citrus Coast League.

But Carpinteria is returning many of its key players from last season, including senior Amarisse Camargo – a multi-sport star who just finished her final volleyball season – and sophomores Jamaica Cook and Charlotte Cooney, who both had standout seasons as freshmen last year.

The Warriors also return with longtime coach Henry Gonzalez, who is looking to lead Carpinteria to a strong year in 2023-24.

Carpinteria will host the second-ever Dan Mercer Classic over three days this week, with matchups against Thacher, Bishop Diego and crosstown rival Cate.

Boys Basketball

Carpinteria had a rough season under first-year coach Jackson Hall last year, finishing with an overall record of 5-20 and league record of 3-9. But there were a lot of bright spots on the Warrior squad, and coach Hall is looking to develop some of last year’s sophomores and juniors into the leadership the team needs to win.

Senior Mario Serrano had some solid games last year, and juniors Sebastian Campuzano, Sawyer Kelly and Carlo Suarez will all be coming back with another year of experience under their belts.

As usual in Carpinteria athletics, the basketball team will be stacked with plenty of multi-sport athletes, including senior Jayson Dishion and juniors Isaya Gonzalez and Luke Fancher, who were all big parts of the Warriors football team this fall.

The Warriors open the season with two road games against Santa Clara and Thacher before returning for their home opener against Santa Ynez on Nov. 22.

Girls Soccer

Warriors girls soccer ended last year with an overall record of 6-11-1 and a league record of 4-8, but Coach Freddy Martinez is back with a group of upperclassmen that already have a lot of in-game experience for Carpinteria.

Senior Lilli Nemetz was part of the Warriors’ undefeated 8-0 Citrus Coast League championship season.

Senior captains Isela Zamora, Lela Roberts and Emma Miller were all key members of last year ’s team, along with junior goalie Natalie Gonzalez and sophomores Vivan Huskins and Evelyn Lara, who had breakout seasons as the youngest members of the team a year ago.

The Warriors will kick off the season on the road at Bishop Diego on Nov. 28, then they will come back to host

their home opener against La Riena on Nov. 30.

Boys Soccer

On the boys soccer side, coach Gerry Rodriguez is now in his second season as

looked back, cruising to a 61-24 win and ending the Rams’ championship hopes one game too early.

Cate’s junior quarterback Quinn Pullen gave his all in the loss, providing a touchdown run in the second quarter and tossing two touchdown passes – one to junior Kristian Scurtis in the third quarter and another to senior Tyler Martinez in the fourth.

Martinez would also grab an interception on defense in the loss.

“It’s disappointing not to play our best against an outstanding team, but we are proud of this team’s growth this season,” said Cate coach Ben Soto. “It’s frustrating to end the year in a way that doesn’t quite represent our year, but this group improved significantly during the year. We loved being around them every day.”

The coaching staff especially thanked the team’s seniors – Martinez, Scurtis, Pen Brooks, Crosby Rosenthal, Muhsin Abdul-Hakim, Kyle Park and Adrian Ordonez – for their “hard work and commitment to our program during their time at Cate.”

Cate tennis completes perfect season, claims first CIF title

Cate girls tennis completed the perfect season, rolling through the semifinal and finals in the CIF Southern Section Division 3 Playoffs to earn the school’s first-ever CIF title with a 11-7 win over Culver City on Friday, Nov. 10.

The Rams’ perfect run was in jeopardy in the CIF Semifinals against Cerritos on Nov. 8, when Cate fell behind 6-8 heading into the final four sets. But Cate’s championship squad buckled down, winning four straight sets to claim the win, 10-8, and punch its ticket to the finals with a record of 16-0.

It was the first time Cate had reached the CIF Finals in girls tennis since 1999, and just the fourth championship appearance of all time (Cate was runner-up in 1996, 1998 and 1999).

Cate’s magical run was full of highlight moments and contributions from the whole roster in singles and doubles play. In the playoffs, senior Alyna Takahashi and sophomore Pyper Davis delivered some important set wins in singles, while the duos of Sophie Alijani with Elsie Chamberlain and Colette Chang with Reyna Takahashi helped bring important points in doubles.

But in the dramatic semifinals, it was the duo of senior Frances Davis with freshman Lisa Hasebe that helped clinch the lead for Cate, 9-8, before sophomore Claire Bianchi sealed the deal with an impressive comeback win to decide the match 10-8.

“The bottom line is that every Cate player put it all on the line today, from the first point to the last, to get that collective victory and a shot at our first CIF Championship,” said coach Trevor Thorpe. “I couldn’t be more proud of the effort and the result is a bonus.”

In the CIF finals, Cate soared through for a decisive win over Culver City, with the Rams leading from the beginning to the end of the title match. At the end of the first round, Cate was up 5-1, and by the end of the match the Rams were on top, 11-7.

With the win, Cate finished the season undefeated at 17-0 for the first time in school history.

“It’s hard to believe that after 17 matches and 17 wins, this season is finally over, but I know we’re all going to remember this for a long time to come,” Thorpe said.

Cate’s eight-man football team had a storybook setup for the CIF Division 1 final: after losing three games to start the season, the Rams made the playoffs and had an opportunity to make a run to the championship game against the same teams that beat them earlier this year.

After beating Flintridge Prep 33-25 in the first round (Cate lost to Flintridge in the first game of the season, 44-42), the Rams set up a rematch against Valley Christian, who beat Cate 52-22 in the second game of the season.

Carpinteria, Cate runners compete at CIF Prelims

Carpinteria’s final cross country competitor, senior Audrey Kramer, and Cate’s boys and girls cross country teams took to the courses at Mt. San Antonio College on Nov. 11 for the CIF Prelims.

In the Division 4 girls race, Kramer ran a new personal record six minutes faster than her time at the same course last year, running the first mile at 6:24 and finishing the race in 44th place with a time of 22:31.

“Her summer training and determination to compete and run well throughout the season helped her to achieve this goal,” said Carpinteria coach Angel Silva.

“Audrey faced a number of challenges throughout the season, but her grit got her to the next level, and she represented Carpinteria High School with her outstanding performance. We are all very proud of her and the way that she raced, and she was not intimidated as she tackled all of the major hills on the course.”

Cate’s boys cross country team won their heat in Division 5, with seniors Sebastian Sutch and Everest Schipper taking second and third place overall. Freshman Ati Zwieback (8th), and seniors Oliver Lee (13th) and George Gordon (19th) finished in the top 20 overall.

“Seb and Everest ran well and under control, which was the plan,” said Cate coach Tim Weir.

On the girls’ side, it was Francesca Sutch who led the team once again. The junior ran comfortably and finished 8th overall, followed by junior Stella Rodgers (33rd), senior Caroline Keohane (38th), and sophomore Coco Kliman (39th) to help the girls also qualify for the finals this Saturday.

“We couldn’t be more proud of the girls’ team,” said Weir. “We lost three of our top five from last year’s state qualifying team to graduation, and we lost another one to a season-ending injury at the start of this season.”

The Cate cross country teams will return to Mt. SAC for the Division 5 CIF Finals on Saturday, Nov. 18.

WINTER WARRIORS Continued from page 24

head coach after taking over the program in 2022. Last year, the Warriors finished with a 3-9-2 record, including a tough run at the end of the season with five straight losses and two straight ties.

In 2023, the boys have a clean slate, and a talented roster of returning players including senior Raul Reyes, who just finished a season as kicker for the Warriors football team (and was crowned as this year’s Homecoming Royalty).

Carpinteria will hit the road for a tuneup match against perennial powerhouse Santa Barbara on Nov. 17 before hosting its home opener at home against Rio Mesa on Nov. 28.

Last year, the Warriors were 16-7 overall and completed a perfect run through the Citrus Coast League, claiming the conference championship with an undefeated 8-0 record. But the Warriors were upset in the CIF Division 4 Playoffs, losing in the first round to Buena and cutting their postseason dreams short.

Coach Jon Otsuki will have to manage the team without last year’s stellar senior class, but the Warriors will have a lot of talent still in the pool with senior Lilli Nemetz and junior Giulia Piccoletti, who provided an offensive spark during many Carpinteria matches last season.

The Warriors have a few preseason scrimmages, starting with a crosstown rivalry against Cate this week, but Carpinteria won’t start up the regular season until Dec. 5, when the Warriors have a match against Buena – the same team that knocked them out of the playoffs last year.

Girls Water Polo

The Warriors are always a force in the pool, and this season the Carpinteria girls water polo team is looking to continue proving themselves as one of the top programs in the region.
