Back to the Classic

Despite the initial strain of rough weather – and a brief pause due to a tsunami warning prompted by a volcano eruption in the Pacific – the Rincon Classic 2022 returned this year after last year’s contest was postponed due to the pandemic. Dozens flocked to the area to catch a wide-eyed glimpse of some of the best surfers in the area.

Surfers of all ages squared up, ready to catch the perfect wave and snag a prize. The day ended with emotional speeches, unforgettable rides and a day of surfing to remember. Cory Arrambide, pictured, took home second place in the Rincon Brewery Pro Division. See more about the Classic on pgs. 24 – 27.

Carpinteria Unified School District is transitioning from at-large to by-trustee area elections to comply with the California Voting Rights Act. This is similar to the process that the city of Carpinteria is undergoing in its transition from at-large to district elections by November 2022. Both processes seek participation from the public.

CUSD invites residents to provide input on identifying the five trustee areas. There will be one trustee for every 3,600 residents.

Food Waste Recycling Starts in the New Year!

S

tarting Jan. 3, food waste recycling services began for all residents of cities served by Harrison Industries. (Residents in unincorporated areas will begin in mid 2022.)

The program is simple: Just place all of your food waste in plastic bags (anything from bread bags to trash bags will do); tie the bags and place them in your yard waste carts, for collection along with your (loose) yard waste on your regular service day.

We will take it from there, to make sure it’s all turned into organic compost or other products.

Taking effect on Jan. 1, California Senate Bill 1383 requires communities statewide to prohibit organic waste from going to landfills. Food and other organic waste emits destructive methane gas as it decays, damaging the Earth’s atmosphere and causing global warming. * ALL FOOD WASTE is accepted for recycling – including bones, peels, shells and coffee grounds. DO NOT place trash; non-organic recyclables (plastic, metal, glass); pet waste; or Styrofoam in yard waste carts.

County planners unanimously approve cannabis project Public comment shows resounding support for cultivation project at 4555 Foothill Road

BY EVELYN SPENCE In a 5-0 vote, the county planning commission approved a cannabis cultivation site at 4555 Foothill Road, following praise from the commission and the public about the greenhouse’s odor abatement system. The newly approved plans contain a further setback from the property’s borders and an increase in the greenhouse’s height.

The site’s applicant and owner, Winfred Van Wingerden, started growing medical cannabis in 2015. He told the commissioners during last Wednesday’s meeting that he has been living in Carpinteria over half a century, and first built greenhouses for flower growing in the 1960s.

According to planner Gwen Beyeler, the site will have up to 25 full-time employees and on-site parking, with ridesharing incentives. Nearly 4.4 acres will be used for cultivation and 0.09 acres for processing.

The height of the greenhouse will be increased to 22 feet, which Van Wingerden said would be a “better buffer” for the environment and allow for better product.

“The project includes a landscaping and screening plan to screen the project from public viewing areas, a lighting plan consisting of motion sensor light fixtures, a plan for fencing the cannabis premises, a site transportation demand management plan to reduce vehicle trips to the site, and an odor abatement plan,” Beyeler said.

She confirmed that the odor abatement plan is consistent with regulations, and that any complaints will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

The greenhouse will have carbon scrubbers and the processing building will have a carbon filtration system, although the majority of processing will be done at another site and the packing house will mainly be used to store dry cannabis, land-use consultant Jay Higgens confirmed.

Higgens said the current office structure on-site will be removed and a concrete loading dock demolished, with a major reduction of processing activities on-site; the majority of processing, he said, would be done at a remote processing facility.

“The packing house will be fully odor complaint,” Higgens said, in response to questions about the packing house from Commissioner John Parke, stating that “98%” of processing will happen off-site.

One point of contention brought up during the meeting was the site’s proximity to Carpinteria High School; the school is 760 feet away from the edge of the greenhouse, and 580 feet from residences.

“The high school is a big concern,” Commission Laura Bridley said. However, she confirmed there have been no letters from the school district or from the city on this case, “which is encouraging.”

Prominent community members spoke in favor of the project during public comment, such as Girls Inc. Executive Director Jamie Collins and Carpinteria Architectural Review Board member Jason Rodriguez. Both praised Van Wingerden’s involvement in the Carpinteria community.

“Van Wingerden is often seen at every local fundraiser supporting a variety of causes that support the Carpinteria Valley,” Collins said. “He intentionally invests his time and money in his projects that will only benefit the residents as well as the greater community.”

She stated cannabis odor in the area

Maximum Nursery, the cannabis cultivation site at 4555 Foothill Road approved by the county planning commission, is 760 feet away from Carpinteria High School, a point of discussion during Wednesday’s meeting. Commissioner Michael Cooney, who has a granddaughter at Carpinteria High School, said there has “consistently been a problem of odor reaching out from the surrounding greenhouses.” has “drastically improved” recently.

Rodriguez, who is also co-owner of The Food Liaison, gave his resounding support for the project.

“From the very beginning, Winfred has made it a point to support (The Food Liaison),” he said. “(I’ve) always admired not just Winfred, but the entire Van Wingerden family.”

Attorney Marc Chytilo also spoke on behalf of the Santa Barbara Coalition for Responsible Cannabis.

“The industry has gone beyond the minimum required by the ordinance,” he said.

The commissioners praised the design of the site, but both Commissioner Michael Cooney and Commissioner Parke brought up issues with the overall cannabis smell in Carpinteria.

“I think our job is not just to look at the ins and outs of a project but to think about what the public is concerned about and make sure their concerns are aired and thought about. And there is an odor issue in Carpinteria,” Parke said.

However, he said he is ready to support Van Wingerden’s project.

“What I believe is that there are growers that do their best to follow all the rules… and then they receive a public (reputation) that’s based on what some of the illegal growers and growers who are less ethical are doing.”

Commissioner Cooney said he has a granddaughter at Carpinteria High School, and there has “consistently been a problem of odor reaching out from the surrounding greenhouses.”

He called the current cannabis ordinance “woefully inadequate,” but praised the scrubbers for Van Wingerden’s project, and ultimately voted yes.

“Nothing to date has been quite as hopeful as the scrubbers that have been installed in the greenhouses.”

- Mr. Weisz

Don’t change the General Plan

I admire the persistence of all who gathered signatures and completed the confirmation of the Initiative Petition to Save Parking Lot #3. I wish however they would have simply called it a “No Hotel Initiative” instead of representing the cause as “Saving Open Space.”

I understand that “Saving Open Space” is a better selling point than “No Hotel Downtown” but saving a parking lot from development isn’t preservation of open space. The hotel proposal doesn’t call for fewer parking spaces; the city sponsored parking survey conducted in pre-Covid August 2019 clearly concludes there is no parking scarcity in Carpinteria.

I believe using the initiative process to make wholesale changes to the city’s General Plan and precluding any public/ private partnership for the future is an overreach. Leaving no possibility of a future development of any sort isn’t in our best interest as a city. Our elected officials have worked hard and deserve credit, not derided by some of our community members who have suggested recalling members of the city council for disagreeing on a single land-use issue.

The general plan has served us well; creating enthusiasm for changing it based on a promise of open space is duplicitous.

The signature gathering strayed from the topic of stopping the hotel. A petition advocating for preservation of asphalt was misleading.

It is my hope that the campaign for the initiative takes a more forthright direction. I suggest those in favor state their intentions clearly. How about, “I don’t like the hotel, it’s too close to my house,” and let the people decide.

Stephen Meade Carpinteria

(805) 351-2101 team@hitchcockre.com www.hitchcockre.com

“Yes” on the Initiative

The grassroots Initiative Petition to Save Parking Lot #3 was signed by almost 1,100 people, of which 932 were certified voters in the city limits. Many people living in the outskirts of Carpinteria wanted to sign it also. A “yes” vote on the initiative will preserve the breathtaking views to the beach and mountains by preventing over-commercialization of our public open space on Parking Lot #3.

Some people are afraid the initiative will prevent parking at our bluffs and popular parks, and that it will open the door to putting houses on the bluffs. The initiative is short and written in plain language. Section 3 of the initiative continues the right of existing parking use on “open space” parcels, and it puts no limits as to the number of parking spaces allowed on those existing open space parcels.

Regarding houses, the initiative only adds this phrase to our General Plan: “The Open Space category may also provide for residential… only if the property is included in the Residential Overlay Zone.” The fact is that no other open space parcels, including the bluffs and parks, are in our residential overlay zone and residential use is not allowed on those parcels.

So while the initiative does change our General Plan, these changes only apply to the downtown parking lot and the open space corridor next to The Spot. Section 5 of the initiative states: “This Initiative adopts General Plan designation and zoning designations only for the Beach Parking Lot and Coastal Open Space Corridor properties……. The Initiative does not adopt, alter, or change land use classifications or any zoning on any other real property in the City of Carpinteria.”

This simple zone change will protect our public property on Parking Lot #3 and maintain our small town Carpinteria.

Switch to by-trustee elections continues to frustrate CUSD board

BY EVELYN SPENCE

The switch to by-trustee elections matter came back to the Carpinteria Unified School District last Tuesday, and – yet again – was met with similar grumblings.

“As I’ve probably expressed to you very clearly, I don’t see how this benefits our community,” board member Andy Sheaffer said, to the agreement of his fellow trustees.

The redistricting would split the map into five trustee areas, which encompass Summerland, Toro Canyon, Carpinteria, Montecito and other unincorporated areas. Each seat in the new system must be filled by a member of each of the five trustee map areas, which must each contain about 3,600 people.

One problem for the board? As discussed on Tuesday, two of the board’s members live in close proximity in Carpinteria, while two others also live close by, meaning any maps created ad-

hering to the guidelines could result in some members losing their seats.

Superintendent Diana Rigby suggested drawing the maps in a way that would allow all board members to keep their seats; prioritizing “continuity,” according to Sheaffer.

“Right now, we have two trustees that are living pretty close, and two other trustees that are living pretty close. So we’ll ask them to draw the maps so that you’re all in different areas, so that you’ll all continue (on the board),” Rigby said during Tuesday’s meeting.

Sheaffer agreed, stating any changes should “have the least amount of impact and the most amount of continuity.”

“I think that’s going to benefit the community the most (and) be (the) least detrimental to the community,” he said.

Daniel Phillips from the National Demographics Corporation, who is helping with the effort, noted another important fact about the district; while the pop-

ulation within the Carpinteria Unified School District boundaries is 42% Hispanic, only 25% of the residents who are eligible to vote are Hispanic, compared to 70% of white residents.

“What really doesn’t match is the adults and the students,” Rigby said.

“75% of our students are Latino, but 70% of the adults voting are white.”

There were no public comments at Tuesday’s meeting.

The board held its first public hearing meeting on the matter on Jan. 11, with another scheduled for Jan. 25. Currently, draft maps – created by board members and school staff, with suggestions from any interested public – are scheduled for release on Feb. 1. Two more public hearings are scheduled for Feb. 8 and Feb. 23, for a final adoption of by-trustee election maps on Feb. 23.

According to the 2020 census, there are 18,024 people within Carpinteria Unified School District boundaries, with 12,158 of those eligible to vote, as discussed at Tuesday night’s school board meeting.

Students received Covid-19 test in English classes

CUSD students received one Covid-19 test in their English classes last week, according to Student Representative Natalia Perez.

Perez told the board that student athletes are being tested for Covid-19 twice a week.

She added that the Associated Student Board is also moving forward with student activities such as prom and Ultimate Warrior, although the board will be flexible to changing Covid-19 conditions.

Donations

Carpinteria Middle School Principal Lisa O’Shea presented to the board of trustees on Tuesday about the number of disciplines given out in Fall 2021 compared to Fall 2018.

Discipline data shows increase in fights

Carpinteria Middle School saw an increase in physical fights and injuries in Fall 2021 compared to Fall 2018, according to data presented by Principal Lisa O’Shea.

There were 202 disciplines given out in Fall 2018, compared to 194 in Fall 2021; however, the number of fights went up, as did the number of cell phone violations and the “other” category, which mask misuse falls under.

“I find it really interesting that in 2018 we had more overall discipline infractions, and the vast majority of them, over half, were disruptive and defiant behaviors,” O’Shea said.

Of the 85 suspendable offenses during Fall 2021, 31 students were suspended, for 111 days of suspension.

O’Shea, who presented the data to the CUSD board of trustees at its regular meeting on Tuesday, showed the board the results of a 2021 safety survey results sent out to parents and students through Parent Square. Of the 1,007 recipients, 50 parents and 378 students responded.

O’Shea said the school has had “very

little issues with vaping this year,” and most students reported that they haven’t seen it happening.

The most startling statistic the board expressed surprise about was a question on student safety. Of the respondents, 66% of students said they felt well supervised while on campus, compared to 32% of parents.

In response, O’Shea said the school is hiring an additional campus security supervisor. She said security cameras on campus have been “very helpful” in identifying incidents.

Board member Jaime Diamond said she was disappointed with the low number of responses on the survey. “(It’s) frustrating to have so many parents be so outraged and vocal on social media and fired up and talking around school and texts and this and that and yet they were given the opportunity for their voice to be heard and they didn’t take that opportunity,” Diamond said during the meeting.

“If this is how you feel, these surveys are so important… so we can figure out where the problems are.”

The board accepted a $10,000 donation from La Centra-Sumerlin Foundation for the after-school robotics program at Carpinteria Middle School and Carpinteria High School.

SBCC shifts to remote learning through Feb. 22

Santa Barbara City College shifted its classes to remote instruction last week, due to the large increase in Covid-19 cases within Santa Barbara County. In-person classes are scheduled to resume on Feb. 22.

Beginning Jan. 24, students and employees who come onto campus must provide proof of a negative Covid-19 test taken with seven days, according to Martha Swanson, executive director of public affairs and communications.

Everyone must wear a N95 or a KN95 mask to enter the campus’ facilities. Only classes with hands-on instruction are held

in-person; proof of vaccination or an exemption from vaccination is required. The school’s 2022 commencement ceremony was also rescheduled to May 13.

Some classes at UC Santa Barbara are also currently remote, following an announcement by Chancellor Henry Yang earlier this month. Instructors have the discretion to hold in-person or online classes, with full in-person instruction scheduled to resume on Jan. 31.

UCSB was the only UC school not to fully shift to online learning in the month of January.

School district introduces new Covid-19 quarantine, isolation guidelines

Students within the Carpinteria Unified School District can now choose individual contact tracing or group contact tracing if they are exposed to a positive case of Covid-19, the district announced last week.

Superintendent Diana Rigby confirmed several changes to the Covid-19 guidelines for the district, which were done with the Santa Barbara County Public Health School team. Close contact is defined as being within six feet of someone with a confirmed case of Covid-19 for more than 15 minutes within a 24-hour period.

For individual contract tracing cases:

When an unvaccinated student comes into close contact with a confirmed case of Covid-19 while at school, and both individuals were masked, the student should quarantine and return to school as early as day 11 if symptoms are improving.

They may be allowed a modified quarantine at school – exclusion from sports, extracurriculars and other activities – while they remain symptom-free and test twice weekly, that could end as early as day 8 with a negative test.

A shortened quarantine can be allowed, with a return to school as early as day 8, if students test negative on or after day five and remain symptom-free.

If both parties were unmasked at the time, students can remain under standard quarantine or a shortened quarantine.

If the unvaccinated student comes into contact with a confirmed case of Covid-19 outside of school, they can return to school on day 11 if they remain symptom-free, or return to school on day 8 if they test negative on or after day 5, and remain without symptoms. They must, for 14 days, wear masks and avoid crowds.

If the above happens to a vaccinated student, they can return to school if there are no symptoms. They should test between 5 to 7 days from close contact, and for 14 days, wear a mask and avoid crowds.

For group contact tracing cases:

Groups of students who come into close contact, regardless of Covid-19 vaccine status or prior infection, should test for Covid-19 within three to five days. If a grade-wide or campus-wide exposure occurs, the school may consider weekly testing.

Students who fall under this category, if they get tested, can continue with sports and extracurricular activities unless they show symptoms or test positive.

For employees:

Regardless of vaccination status, lack of symptoms or previous infection, employees who test positive for Covid-19 must isolate at home for at least five days from the first day of symptoms. They can leave isolation on day 6 if they have a negative test, symptoms are not present, and they have no fever. They must wear a face covering 10 days from the date of the positive test.

If an unvaccinated employee refuses to test for Covid-19, they must remain at home for 10 days.

For employees who are fully vaccinated and have a booster, they don’t have to quarantine at home if they have no symptoms, show a negative test on day

5 and remain a face covering for 10 days after coming into close contact.

If a vaccinated employee refuses to test for Covid-19, they can come to work if they wear a face mask and remain six feet from others for 14 days.

Employees who come into close contact and are unvaccinated must quarantine at home for at least five days after the close contact day. They may leave quarantine as early as day 6 if they have no symptoms and test negative on day 5. They must wear a mask around others for 10 days.

Employees who are unvaccinated and had Covid-19 in the past 90 days, who come into close contact, are not required to quarantine home if they remain symptom-free. They must wear a mask and remain six feet apart from others.

For symptomatic students and employees:

Before coming back to the district, students and employees who show symptoms must remain away for 10 days unless they test negative and show improvements in symptoms, have a different diagnosis from a doctor, or can show proof from a doctor that they have a chronic condition.

Eagle Scout project focuses on blood drives

BY DEBRA HERRICK

Seventeen-year-old Salvador Hernandez is tackling the increased need for blood donations during the Covid-19 pandemic by organizing five blood drives in South Santa Barbara County this winter.

The blood drives are part of Hernandez’ Eagle Scout project for his Boy Scouts Troop. Hernandez said he chose to focus on blood donations because he noticed that during the summer and over holidays there is an increased need for blood donations – a need heightened by the pandemic.

“But the main reason,” Hernandez said, “(is that) this is a way (for) not just me, but other people, (to) help out their community and that is the most important thing.”

To organize the blood drives, Hernandez teamed up with nonprofits the Red Cross and Vitalant, local churches and fire departments. Drives will be held in Carpinteria, Santa Barbara and Montecito in January and February.

Hernandez has been in the Boy Scouts since he was 7 years old, starting with Carpinteria’s Cub Scouts Pack 147. Now he is the senior patrol leader for Troop 33 of Montecito. He is also the troop’s only Spanish-speaking member and serves as the troop’s interpreter and translator.

“The main thing I like about being a scout is being able to engage with the community (and) being able to be there for younger scouts (when) I know they will be passing through rough patches,” Hernandez said.

After graduating from Santa Barbara High School this year, Hernandez plans to attend Santa Barbara City College to complete an EMT certification and mechanic certification. He then plans to

He particularly has his eye on becoming a Sheriff’s Deputy.

Hernandez said he was grateful to the people who have helped him thus far in his life. “I would like to thank those people that have helped me in that past and the present to get to this point and to be who I am,” he said.

Managing overwhelming houseguests and dealing with fear of dogs CVN

THE SEAWITCH SAYS AMY OROZCO It’s the Year of the Tiger! According to the Chinese Zodiac, the tiger symbolizes strength, bravery and exorcising evils.

Let’s call on those attributes when facing the inevitable challenges of life, whether they be of global proportions, on a community level or of a personal nature.

What do you think the tiger would advise on this week’s questions?

Dear Amy O., While I was busy with the non-holiday, personal finance end-of-year tasks in December (such as reconciling the family budget, scheduling routine medical and dental visits, and comparison-shopping for car insurance), extended family mem-

bers were figuring out the best time for them to calendar a visit to Carpinteria, specifically, when to spend a week, or two, at our home conveniently located walking distance to the World’s Safest Beach.

Don’t get me wrong. I love my family.

I want to spend time with them. I guess, I’d like it to be more of a choice than a command performance. Why do they get to choose when they will disrupt our life?

Signed, Neither a Hotelier nor a Restaurateur Be

Dear Neither a Hotelier nor a Restaurateur Be, “They” get to choose when “they” will disrupt your life because, ahem, you allow it. Maybe even encourage it.

Kudos and a big hats off to you for accomplishing all those end-of-year tasks!

Well done. Which was completed first: holiday shopping, card writing or the dreary tasks? And we know the A-Type personality shining through your letter does them all, and more.

How about making family visits a priority? Communicate with your family what dates work best for your household.

What’s new at the harbor seal rookery?

Natural History Notes

Preemptively so. Say, Black Friday? Cyber Monday more your style? Doesn’t matter.

It’s your family for Heaven’s sake! If you can’t communicate with them directly … well, I don’t know what.

How is the time spent on their visits and who gets to decide? How are meals figured? Sleeping arrangements? Expenses? I suggest calling a family meeting, Zoom or Facetime could do the trick.

Tell your family you love them, want to be with them, and what works for your household. Conversations such as this reveal so much. Who knows? Maybe someone is wishing you’d do the traveling for once.

Dear Amy O., Here’s my secret: I’m afraid of dogs.

Unless, of course, we have been introduced properly. It’s a secret from the dogs because, it’s true, they detect fear.

When I see a four-legged, 85-pound blur of fur coming my way, I freeze. Honestly, the goofy Golden Retrievers don’t scare me as much as the tightly strung and sinewy breeds with big thick jaws.

They really make me shake.

Why do perfectly lovely people have no idea how terrifying their beloved canine can be? It’s gotten so that activities such as walking the bluffs or hiking the Franklin Trail have become unpleasant because of the likelihood of meeting up with a roaming dog.

My question is what is the best way to handle this? What I really want to do is really let the owner have it.

For the record, I love animals. In fact, I think family pets, as well as plants, make for a well-rounded home. I donate to local animal causes focusing on spaying/ neutering. One reason I have pets is so I can sleep with them. When houseguests arrive, our furry family members are introduced to them and a get-to-know-you minute is allowed.

Signed, Please Push Pause on Those Paws Dear Please Push Pause on Those Paws, Agreed: Those perfectly lovely people should have their dogs on a leash. The

Reduce watering for winter weather.

The harbor seals are not the only local residents benefiting from a safe sanctuary. Over a hundred California brown pelicans, as well as many other bird species, often share the beach with the seals. The only brown pelican breeding colonies on the West Coast are a short distance away on West Anacapa and Santa Barbara islands. While pelicans have recovered from near extinction due to DDT, they are still protected by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act.

Disturbances

Surfers frightened the seals as they entered through the sanctuary, and beach walkers caused another mass flight. Two powered hang gliders caused many to leave. Additional disturbances were caused by amplified noise on an oil industry boat loading at the pier, by workers on the pier, and by a vehicle honking by the pier entrance.

More Info

The Carpinteria harbor seal rookery is located immediately east of Casitas Pier, between the Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve and Carpinteria State Beach. Please remember not to bring dogs, bicycles or loud voices to view the seals. Harbor seals, when disturbed, may flee and become separated from their pups. Volunteers ask that dogs remain outside the rope area at all times. Volunteers needed. Call (805) 684-2247 or email carpsealwatch@gmail.com. To find out more, visit carpinteriasealwatch.org.

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

If you walk the beach, please do not hesitate to let people know the seals are not threatened by Covid-19, but they are by human disturbance. For information on Sealwatch, call (805) 684-2247.

purpose of a dog leash is for a dog’s safety and comfort. Not to mention consideration and good citizenry. According to the city of Carpinteria website, all dogs are required to be leashed within city limits.

They also are prohibited in certain areas.

It’s not clear from your letter the depth of your fear of dogs, or cynphobia. I can offer suggestions to smooth a sticky social situation. If you find your fear irrational and debilitating, please seek professional help. Call the 211 Helpline for Health and Human services or ask your health care provider for a referral. Make sure your loved ones and inner circle know about your fear, too. It is possible to manage phobias or overcome them. Today’s world order has exacerbated mental health issues. All of us need to be mindful.

Smooth that sticky social situation. In the moment, be clear and direct, ask the owner to “please call off your dog. I’m not comfortable.” To the dog, give a common command such as “sit” or “stay,” using a low and firm voice. Avoid yelling or signs of aggression. Using your phone to take a photo of the loose dog and accompanying scofflaw to send to Animal Control might be helpful to the community in the long run.

How well do you know canine body language? A playful mood is expressed differently than a relaxed one, as are aggression, suspicion and anxiety. Being able to recognize different postures may boost your canine confidence. Various occupations carry dog repellent spray; mail carriers come to mind. You could look into that.

I understand your desire to “really let the owner have it.” They are the responsible party, not the dog. I suggest leaving that task to the city’s Code Compliance or other local authority.

Give your irrigation system a break for cool and wet winter weather by: • Reducing watering days and times.

• Checking the soil moisture in your landscape before watering again.

• Attaching a rain sensor to automatically shut off irrigation controller when it rains.

• Using the weather-based Watering % Adjust at WaterWiseSB.org Visit CVWD.net for the Summary of Stage 2 regulations, drought information, available rebates and water saving actions.

FIELD NOTES

EXPLORING THE VALLEY’S WILD AND CULTIVATED SPACES

ALENA STEEN Recent drenching rains are a profound gift for our drought-prone landscape in the midst of shifting, unpredictable patterns of human-caused climate change.

Winter rains mark the beginning of a true new year in the seasonal calendar of this beloved ecology, triggering a vigorous flush of green on the front range and along riparian zones. A few hardy native plants are even blooming already, busily feeding pollinators still active in the colder months.

This blossoming of aboveground life is reflected below our feet as well, in the soil microbiome and fungal networks which come alive with the welcome introduction of moisture to the processes of life which lie more dormant as the soil begins to dry out. Much of the work of building healthy soil is eased by nutrient-rich, gently soaking rains.

Because of this seasonal flush of new life, winter is a great time to focus on the essential garden projects of building soil, planting drought-tolerant, life-giving perennials and fruit trees and creating systems for rainwater and groundwater capture wherever you live. Winter is also the perfect time for tasks which require manual labor, such as adding thick layers of compost and wood chips or other

Shopping at the weekly downtown farmers market is an easy way to support ecological health and social equity in the Carpinteria Valley. woody mulch to garden beds.

For many of us, however, gardening is not a practical part of daily life. While growing even a small portion of your household’s food can bring immense satisfaction and a growing appreciation of seasonal cycles and the talents of farmers, it’s a lot of work and attention.

It is also deeply important and meaningful to support hardworking farmers who are an integral part of community and environmental care. My hope is that those able to afford it celebrate a year of more intentional food-purchasing decisions. Our purchasing power plays an active role in creating the world we live in and the future we can look forward to.

Nowhere is this more relevant than in the food choices we make every day.

Roughly 38% of earth’s continental landmass is devoted to agriculture; this is true for approximately one-quarter of California’s landmass (about 60% is rangeland for meat and dairy-producing animals, while 40% is cropland).

Industrial agriculture is a serious

FOOD COURT

polluter: grazing animals, chemical-dependent farming practices, deforestation to create cropland and globe-spanning food supply chains are sources of vast carbon and methane emissions.

Luckily, we are fortunate to live in an ecological and human community replete with other choices. We live in an area surrounded by small-scale organic vegetable and fruit growers as well as the farmers markets, local grocery stores and farm stands that support them.

There are so many buzzwords lining the aisles of supermarkets that it can be pretty challenging to make informed decisions about what is best. There is also plenty of “green washing,” where enticing words or misleading language misrepresent products’ growing practices and community care.

Truly sustainable farming and food production honors local resources, builds resilient communities and offers a living wage, safety and equity to all involved.

Your purchasing power can support small-scale, organic farmers using the

most ecologically sound farming practices. Choosing to spend your food dollars on small-scale family farms keeps farmland protected and allows second and third generation farmers to continue their family’s farming legacy if they so choose.

An important part of truly sustainable food is quality of life for farmworkers, which is often overlooked in conversations about sustainable agriculture.

Farm work is physically demanding, repetitive and often poorly paid. Many farms also rely heavily on undocumented workers without access to appropriate work protections, including safe working conditions in the midst of an ongoing global pandemic.

While shopping for locally produced, sustainably and ethically grown food often costs more out of pocket, you are avoiding participation in many of the hidden costs of industrial agriculture which affect us all: depleted soil, toxic watersheds, unsafe working conditions and ever-increasing carbon dioxide contributions to our warming planet.

The ability to buy fresh and healthy food is certainly a privilege, and one that many people do not have access to.

I’ve discussed the impacts of economic class and race on food access and equity, including the concept of “food deserts” in previous articles.

Another meaningful contribution to community food sovereignty is to share vegetable abundance. If you are able, it is extremely important to support our local foodbanks, community kitchens and gleaning services that work to offer fresh, nutritious food to all members of our community.

Alena Steen is the former coordinator for the Carpinteria Garden Park. She and her partner now own and operate a small, diverse flower and herb farm just behind town.

Warriors soccer drops home opener against league rival Santa Paula

BY RYAN P. CRUZ • PHOTOS BY ROSANA SWING

Carpinteria’s boys soccer team hosted the first home league match of the season, and despite a solid game where the Warriors kept control of possession for a big portion of the time, they were unable to score and ultimately lost 0-3.

“We had Santa Paula where we wanted them the majority of the match, with 60% possession and controlling the tempo of the game,” coach Leo Quintero said. “We had clear scoring opportunities throughout the match however none found the back of the net.”

Quintero said that although the Warriors have struggled to find a win through the first three games of league play, the team has been playing some of its best soccer as a group, collectively gaining momentum in team chemistry in what he calls a “never-ending quest” to become better each day, each game.

“I am certain our boys – despite the

loss on paper – gained huge amounts of trust in the process and in themselves as a unit searching for its identity while battling the uncertainty and the unknown of the world pandemic we currently have in front of us,” Quintero said.

Sophomore Angel Zepeda continues to be a bright spot for the Warriors, Quintero said, and the young striker has played with “tenacity” and “determination. Zepeda was able to draw a penalty inside the box 20 minutes into the first half, though Carpinteria was unable to convert that into a goal.

Sophomore Raul Reyes and senior Steven Zermeño also stood out for the Warriors. Reyes was a distributor from his right-wing position, connecting passes and creating opportunities for fellow sophomore Zepeda and junior Ulises Segura. Zermeño is a four-year

varsity player and “truly defines team leadership,” Quintero said, and pitched in with some key plays over the 80 minute-match. Junior Goalkeeper Alex Silva tallied nine saves in the loss.

“We won knowledge regardless of the score, and for that I am proud of this group of young men and I’m confident they will succeed and always find a way to win on and off the field,” he said.

After the game, Quintero told the players: “The road to success will always have obstacles and uncomfortable situations, yet that is what will make us stronger and more capable to overcome when put to the test. We will respond.”

With the latest loss, Carpinteria falls to 0-2-1 in Citrus Coast League play, as the team prepares for the final stretch of the regular season, starting with a Friday road game against Fillmore, followed by a home rivalry matchup against Nordhoff

on Wednesday, Jan. 26. The Warriors will close the season on the road with a rematch against Santa Paula on Friday, Jan. 28.

Warriors girls water polo grabs three wins in a busy week

Carpinteria girls water polo made a splash on their first week back in the pool since mid-December, playing six games in just four days and picking up three wins in one day alone.

The bulk of the Warrior’s water polo matches were played over the weekend, with two games on Friday and three on Saturday for the Oxnard-hosted tournament.

On Friday, Carpinteria struggled to shake off the rust, starting with some costly turnovers that led to an early deficit against Thousand Oaks in the first game. The Warriors were unable to recover, trailing the entire game on the way to a 5-9 loss.

Piper Clayton led the Warriors with three goals, while Briana Rodriguez and Jocelyn Pena scored a goal each. Junior goalie Erin Otsuki grabbed 11 saves in the loss.

Less than an hour later, the girls faced the tournament’s top-ranked squad: Notre Dame. Again, the Warriors fell behind 1-4 early in the game, and were unable to recover against the powerhouse #1 seed, losing 6-13. The highlight for Carpinteria was their second quarter effort, with four goals to Notre Dame’s five, led again by Clayton’s two goals.

“Piper Clayton had a phenomenal game at both ends of the pool and played the entire game,” coach Jon Otsuki said. Rodriguez added a pair of goals, and Lilli Nemetz and Natalia Perez each scored one.

The next day was a different story for the Warriors, who plowed through the competition winning three games back-to-back-to back on Saturday.

Against Marymount, Rodriguez’s six goals led the team to a 13-5 victory. Clayton scored three in the game, while Perez pitched in two of her own. Erin Otsuki blocked 10 shots in the first win of the day.

Next up, Channel Islands was caught in a wave of Carpinteria counterattacks, and the Warriors were able to build an early lead on their way to their second win of the day, 18-5. Carpinteria’s reserves and younger players got a chance to get some quality playing time, with 10 different players scoring, and backup goalie Maddison Mora snatching five blocks in the victory.

Lastly, Cabrillo stuck around in the first quarter 3-3, but the Warriors were able to fall back into the groove for their third and final win of the day, 11-4. Rodriguez once again led the Warriors with six goals, Clayton scored three and Perez finished with another two.

On Monday, Carpinteria finished its six-game week against Santa Ynez, but a roster depleted by Covid and the wear and tear of five games in two days proved too much to overcome for the Warriors, who fell with a final score 8-9.

“The girls played well, they made some good plays and some not so good plays,” Otsuki said. “Playing without two starters allowed the younger Warriors to get quality minutes under high pressure situations.”

Rodriguez and Clayton were stars this week in the water, and finished Monday’s game with three goals and two goals, respectively. The Warriors are now 7-4 overall as they head into a flurry of league games beginning Thursday at Santa Paula and followed by a home game against Hueneme on Friday.

to become a factor in the league,” coach Freddy Martinez said.

Martinez also highlighted the play from some of the younger members of the squad, like sophomores Lela Roberts and Emma Miller and freshman Charlotte Stoops.

The next day, Carpinteria was able to bounce back for a 3-1 win over Beacon Hill.

“I’m hoping this is just the first of more wins to come in the new year,” Martinez said.

Ashley Verduzco led the Warriors, he said, with outstanding ball-handling and passing, including an assist to Julianna Ornelas in the 15th minute. Later, Verduzco stripped the ball from the opponent at midfield and dribbled past two players before passing to Barbara Contreras for another goal.

Warriors basketball battles through Covid–19

Carpinteria’s Athletic Director Pat Cooney said it best in his weekly athletics report: “It has been a test of patience and resilience for the basketball Warriors.”

The Warriors boys and girls teams have been depleted by symptoms and positive tests, both from Carpinteria student athletes and the scheduled opponents.

“The rise in Covid cases led to cancellations on both the boys and girls basketball schedules last week and promises to continue to disrupt plans for the foreseeable future,” Cooney said.

Despite the setbacks, each team was able to get back on the court at least once in the past week. The girls hosted Malibu, and though the Warriors had not played since the middle of December, the game was hard-fought all the way to the last buzzer.

The Warriors trailed 27-29 with one last opportunity to tie the game with .7 seconds left. The buzzer-beater bounced off the rim but didn’t fall, handing Carpinteria its first league loss of the season.

On the boys’ side, the warriors played league rival Santa Paula, losing 37-47. Matt Garcia led Carpinteria with 15 points, while Jered Zapata dropped 12 in the loss.

Both teams are scheduled to play this week: the boys face Fillmore on the road on Thursday, while the girls team will head to Santa Paula on Friday.

Carpinteria lost its second league game against Santa Paula, 0-3, before rebounding for a home victory against Beacon Hill the next day.

At Santa Paula – the leading contender for the Citrus Coast League title – the visiting Warriors were able to cause some frustration in the first half, only allowing deep-range shot attempts in the highly contested and physical game. The Cardinals were able to break through to head into the half up by one goal. The second half was all Santa Paula, who scored twice more on the way to the league win.

“The match was truly a test of character for the girls, they played with some great determination to keep the opponent from getting any clean looks on goal, and I hope the opponents are starting to notice that this is a program that is taking huge steps

IT’S ALL SURFING CHRISTIAN BEAMISH The Rincon Classic returned this year and contest director Chris Keet nailed the forecast yet again, running the event with excellent waves. Most impressive to me was the surfing in the boys’ and girls’ divisions. Wave riding has always been a youthful endeavor, but with many families now running two- or three-generations deep in surfing, kids are starting earlier than ever and it really shows.

We’re famously insular and uninviting in surfing, which, given the steep learning curve and physical demands of the sport, is actually understandable. Why should someone who has given all of themselves to their pursuit be expected to then share with newcomers on equal footing? It seems the newcomer owes something in deference to traditions that predate them.

Then again, Aloha is real and sharing reverberates positivity – attitude, of course, determining everything, no matter where one stands in any given hierarchy. And as hierarchy pertains to the boys’ and girls’ surfing at the Rincon Classic, it was evident that division winners 11-year-old Maddox Keet and 14-year-old Vela Mattive have given all of themselves to becoming the best surfers that they can be.

Maddox showed a cool head after falling with only about a minute-and-a-half remaining in his heat. He paddled hard for the outside and swung into another, much better wave. He rode with confidence all the way through, threading the Cove with the familiarity of a neighborhood playground, which Rincon actually is for him and his group of friends.

National U14 surfing champion Vela Mattive surfs with poise and authority, reminiscent slightly of fellow Santa Barbara great Kim Mearig. And like all great surfers, she has an uncanny ability to find the best waves of the day, whether in overly crowded conditions outside the contest format, or in a heat. One turn in particular during the semi-final was outstanding for its combination of commitment and flow: a lateral line along the top of the wave, which Vela held for an extended 10-yards or so before hooking her board back under the lip.

In addition to these kids’ exemplary surfing skills, their ability to put together a winning wave performance in an allotted 20-minute time slot is impressive.

It’s something I have never quite figured out in more than 40 years of surfing, (not that I’ve made competition my focus).

Anyway, I entered the Grand Masters’ division (45-years and up) again, hoping, I suppose, to demonstrate some sprightly surfing at soon-to-be 53-years-old.

I’m always nervous in these things: jittery, not at all just comfortable in the ocean. My 10-year-old daughter told me to “actually try” this year, and unlike years past I made it through my first heat. For once I stuck to my game plan, sitting further inside and down the point from the rest of the competitors. I managed to skate

across a couple, squeaking-out a thirdplace finish, but missed the cut Sunday morning by a margin of less than a full point, which is indicative of the somewhat subjective nature of surf contests.

But winning means convincingly surfing better, and on better waves, than the other competitors, and I didn’t do that.

Still, I feel satisfied with the effort I put in. The event criteria is high-performance, shortboard surfing, and I rode a 6’2” Twin Fin on Saturday and a 6’5” channel bottom Twin on Sunday – a model that I am shaping a lot of these days and getting good feedback on. The truth, however, is that I don’t ride this board very often as I gravitate to a longer, wider board on most days of average-sized waves.

And I’m realizing, with a slight creak in my hip and stiff lower back each morning, that I’m liking the feeling of longer boards – the paddle, the effortless glide.

What I’m after in surfing boils down to going fast and watching the curves and sparkle of sunlight on wave faces. Pico Iyer writes in his wonderful book, “A Beginner’s Guide to Japan”: “Old World cultures cherish grace in defeat because they know we all lose in the end; New World cultures remain confident they can keep destiny at bay, perhaps forever.”

At the very least, I think I am improving my outlook. But how does one talk about ageing without being too nihilistic on the one hand, or somehow padding the truth on the other with dubious insights on the benefits of “experience”? I do not have an answer for this question, but if I did it would have something to do with taking pleasure in seeing young surfers with a lot of joy in their art, and potential in their years ahead.

Back at the beach with the 2022 Rincon Classic

PHOTOS BY GLENN DUBOCK

This past weekend, surfers flocked to the Queen of the Coast for the 40th annual Channel Islands Surfboards Rincon Classic. The Rincon Beach event is produced by Carpinteria-based company, Surf Happens.

After more than six weeks of lackluster surf conditions, a forecast of west swells heading into the first weekend of the waiting period for the 2022 contest seemed to organizers like the best-case scenario, and the event was locked in to begin on Saturday, Jan. 15.

The decision to greenlight the contest was made earlier in the week, and on Wednesday morning, wind forecast began pointing towards more blustery conditions. By Friday morning, conditions seemed to have improved. But on the morning of the event, organizers found sponsor tents strewn along the rocky shoreline, ripped from their anchors by pre-dawn winds. Surf Happens’ team, contestants and volunteers, scrambled to reassemble or replace the tents that had been broken and the Classic began on schedule.

Just minutes before the first heat of the day – with surfers already in the water – organizers received a phone call. “’Did you hear about the tsunami warning?’” Chris Keet, Rincon Classic director, recalled hearing. “The voice on the line echoed.”

Contestants and spectators were ushered to the safety of high land and organizers put in place a 70-minute hold for safety purposes. The event kicked off but later encountered further complications from rain and a power outage.

“But then everything started falling into place,” Keet said. “The wind turned the right direction by 10:30 a.m. and the rain stopped. A healthy crowd arrived on the beach and the scene was filled with stoke.”

Keet said the rest of the weekend unfolded with “a fairy-tale ending as the wind disappeared and the background swell grew, providing picturesque canvases for everyone to enjoy.”

“From the U12 to the Super Legends and the Rincon Brewery Pro – all contestants put forth stellar performances. But the ‘Queen’ and the majesty of her lines truly stole the show, which was documented for the world to see through a live webcast courtesy of Dream Cast Media Group,” Keet added.

Event highlights included Ronin Castorino’s buzzer beater 9.67 in the last 20 seconds to overtake an in-form Maddox Keet in the U12 division for his first Rincon Classic win.

finalist, was also the youngest finalist of the event at 10 years old, which garnered him the “Perfect Ten” performance award.

The power and aggression of 13-year-old Aiden Albada, who handily won the U14 Boys division, was unstoppable. U17 winner Tyler Chiarappa caught a last-second score to advance through the semi-finals over perennial finalist Jak Ziets. Knocking Ziets out of the event, Chiarappa kept that winning form through the finals for an incredible victory over the area’s best surfers.

Mens Open champion Trevor Barry put forth a combination of power and flair for a convincing win over a stacked field. Masters Champion Brent Power lived up to his name and put forth a combination of rail and precision to take his first Rincon Classic title.

Just minutes before the first heat of the day – with surfers already in the water – organizers received a phone call. “’Did you hear about the tsunami warning?’” Chris Keet, Rincon Classic director, recalled hearing. “The voice on the line echoed.”

Vela Mattive, First Place, Wahines U17

Grand Masters was a tight affair with Walt Cerny blasting his way to victory with form and flair for a narrow match win over a last-minute charge by Chris Keet, who fell just under his required score, getting an 8 when he needed an 8.23. Keet then helped chair an ecstatic Cerny up the beach, who won the event in the first time he had made it into the draw.

Legends winner Tony Luna got barreled and chose the best waves, pulling off some radical turns to take the title over Bryan Gragg. The new Super Legends debut featured some icons of the sport, with the title going to Bill Urbany.

On the women’s side, some of the best surfing in the event went down with Wahines winner Vela Mattive.

Mattive posted two perfect 10s in separate heats, and a dominant performance to take her first title. Makena Burke from Ventura was not to be outdone and put on a clinic. Burke earned two perfect 10s of her own to take the women’s title.

Wrapping up the event was another new division, the Lady Legends, featuring stalwart female surfers from the area who scored some of the best waves and conditions of the event. The stylish and powerful Miranda Joseph took home the inaugural title.

Specialty Divisions

The Rincon Brewery Professional divi-

sion now has a new champion to add to the list of world-famous names. Dimitri Poulos, 19, from Ventura, won his first pro title in convincing form and netted $1,300 in the process. His last victory in the event was in 2017 in the Boys division.

The VISSLA Expression Session made its debut with a list of 12 invitees who picked a number out of a hat from 1-10 and then chose from an eclectic batch of vintage Channel Islands Surfboards to ride. Boards were from the early 70s to the late 90s. The crew put on a show with top performances by World Tour surfers Lakey Peterson and Sage Erickson, icon Dane Reynolds, JWAA winner Wayne Rich, and unforgettable rides by all other

participants.

Each day as the tide receded, tribe members came together to be “green to the Queen” for the Hydro Flask Beach CleanUps. The goal was to leave Rincon cleaner than before the event, and to promote using reusable drink tins and coffee mugs over single-use plastics.

Every participant was awarded Hydro Flasks for their efforts.

After the event concluded, the Padaro Beach Grill awards ceremony featured inspiring and emotional speeches by Jeff White Aloha Award for Lifetime Achievement winner Wayne Rich and Chris Brown Eternal Stoke Award recipients Conner and Parker Coffin.
