Annual Museum Free-for-All: March 23

Southern California’s annual Museum Free-for-All day is scheduled for Saturday, March 23, inviting members of the public to visit select museums for free across SoCal. Locally, the Santa Barbara Museum of Art at 1130 State St., the Santa Barbara

Museum of Natural History (SBMNH) at 2559 Puesta Del Sol and the Museum of Ventura County at 100 E. Main St. will offer free admission. Booking for the SBMNH is encouraged at sbnature.org; the Sea Center will not offer free admission, only the museum.

“We are thrilled, once again, to invite visitors from across Southern California to see the remarkable range of art, cultural heritage, natural history, film, and science that our museums and cultural organizations have to offer. The Museums Free-forAll has always been an opportunity for people to see something new or to revisit a treasured spot,” Alexa Nishimoto, SoCal Museums president and marketing associate, Japanese American National Museum, said in a press release.

“The Free-for-All also serves as a reminder that many museums here in Southern California are always free and others offer these types of opportunities year-round.”

Public invited to ADU overview seminar

The city of Carpinteria’s City Planner Syndi Souter will discuss the city’s Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) program on Saturday, March 16 at 1 p.m. at the Carpinteria Community Library.

Librarian Jody Thomas told CVN that during the free presentation, Souter will discuss the permitting process, timelines, the types of ADUs permits available, and estimated fees. The city has two base prototypes – Plan 1 and Plan 2, each in California Ranch and Coastal Cottage styles – on file for residents who want to build ADUs but don’t want to spend money on their own custom plans.

Waterwise contest applications open

The Santa Barbara County Water Agency has opened applications for its 2024 Waterwise Garden Recognition contest, which recognizes residents with water-efficient landscapes. Interested participants can visit WaterWiseSB.org/GardenContest to apply for the award and countywide grand prize.

The winners will be given an engraved stone boulder and will be showcased online.

“Water-wise landscaping is an excellent option for conserving water while maintaining the splendor of home gardens,” Rachel Major, County Water Agency resources specialist, said in a press release. “The contest highlights sustainable gardens in the community and recognizes residents who have chosen to move away from water-intensive lawns.”

Residents whose water providers are the Carpinteria Valley Water District, Vandenberg Village Community Services District, Montecito Water District, the Santa Ynez River Water Conservation Improvement District #1 or the cities of Santa Barbara and Buellton are eligible to participate. Applications are due by April 30.

Elections: Lee stays ahead with 510-vote lead; Williams concedes

While the gap between incumbent Das Williams and challenger Roy Lee – competing for the District One seat on the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors – has narrowed, Lee remains ahead, with a lead of 510 votes as of Wednesday morning. Both are Carpinteria residents.

Countywide, there remain 1,745 votes to be counted, as of Wednesday morning. The county has so far processed 99,181 ballots.

Williams – in a message posted to his Facebook page Wednesday afternoon – conceded and thanked all the walkers, phoners, supporters and donors involved in his campaign.

“Most of the remaining votes have been counted this morning and my re-election has fallen short by about 500 votes,” Williams wrote on Facebook. “This community is made up of passionate, engaged people who care about the issues. I have been blessed to work on behalf of so many of them. It has been an honor to serve this community for now over 21 years, and I thank you for voting for me at least 9 times and giving me the chance I yearned for all my life: to make a difference for our shared future.

“We continue to have many challenges as a community, foremost amongst them housing affordability, environmental protection, and flood control. I hope to support any effort my successor makes on these vital needs,” he added. “Do not worry about me, I am going to be concentrating on supporting my wife’s career and raising two strong, thoughtful and compassionate girls. But please do worry about climate change, and do everything in your power to reduce your emissions and this community’s. Our future does hang in the balance.”

Lee came in with 10,017 votes, or 51.16% of the vote, compared to Williams’ 9,507 votes, or 48.55%. There were 57 write-in votes, at 0.29%.

Any further updates will be available online at countyofsb.org/3294/Election-Results.

County Housing Element Workshop: March 19

The Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors will host a workshop on potential rezone sites for the County’s Housing Element on Tuesday, March 19 at 2 p.m. According to county spokesperson Jackie Ruiz, owners and agents for those rezone sites will discuss with the board their plans for those sites.

The workshop will be held at the Planning Commission Hearing Room, 105 E. Anacapa, and streamed online at countyofsb.org/1814/Hearing-Process. The county must build 2,818 very low, low- and moderate-income housing units, per its 2023–2031 Housing Element, to accommodate housing needs; the Housing Element can be viewed online at countyofsb.org/3177/Housing-Element-Update.

Mama-son dance scheduled for March 22

The Carpinteria Woman’s Club – located at 1056 Vallecito Road – will host a mama-son dance on Friday, March 22, 6–8 p.m., with games, music, a photo booth and more planned.

Spokesperson Aja Forner told CVN that some of the local mothers who have sons wanted to host something similar to the local father-daughter dances held each year. The funds raised will go back to the Women Making Change group, which is sponsoring and hosting women-focused programming in honor of Women’s History Month, which is celebrated every March.

“We want to just really foster the bond between the mom and her son, or a female role model in a boy’s life,” Forner told CVN, adding that she hopes the event – which is open to all Carpinterians – will take place yearly. “We really want it to be a community event, so everyone is welcome.”

Tickets are $25 per couple and $13 per extra guest. Scholarships are available for parents and children who want to attend but are concerned about the cost; email 4vivaevents@gmail.com to inquire about scholarships. Forner added that anyone looking to donate money to the cause can reach out to that same email address.

Coastland Carpinteria to shut down in June

Coastland Carpinteria – a student-focused store located at 5036 Carpinteria Ave. – is going out of business and will shut down June 16, the store’s Instagram announced late last week.

The store is run by the Pro Deo Foundation, which helps students design and create handmade products to sell in the stores through the foundation’s Pathways Program; all profits go back to local students.

“Our students will continue working hard until we close to keep the store stocked and running,” the store said on its Instagram. “Be on the lookout for sales and specials in the coming months.”

A lengthier statement written by Dave Roberts – who runs the shop alongside Rachel Roberts – was posted to the Pro Deo Foundation website, explaining that the foundation’s board of directors has decided to relocate the organization to San Clemente.

“This decision was not made lightly, but after careful analysis, it has been deemed the most strategic move for the future sustainability and growth of Pro Deo. The board believes that by centralizing our operations in San Clemente, we will be better positioned to serve our mission and expand our impact in a more efficient and effective manner,” Roberts wrote, adding that he will not be relocating to San Clemente. “I want to take this opportunity to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for your unwavering support and dedication during our time here in Carpinteria. Together, we have accomplished incredible things and made a lasting impact on our community. It has been an honor and privilege to work alongside such passionate and committed individuals.”

Council discusses banning smoking in multi-unit housing developments

No

ATMIKA IYER

The Carpinteria City Council discussed expanding the city’s smoking ordinance to ban in multi-unit housing developments during its Monday, March 11 meeting, citing concerns about second-hand and third-hand smoke on Carpinteria’s youth. The council also supported updating the city’s outdated signature in retail tobacco spaces to bring it in line with state law.

The draft ordinance, as proposed, would ban both tobacco and marijuana smoking on multi-unit housing premises; this ban would not apply to mobile home parks. If the ordinance is ultimately approved to the council, it would take effect in June 2025.

No formal decisions were made during Monday night’s meeting; instead, city staff wanted feedback from the council and the public on the ordinance before it moves through the council’s formal review process. This item will return to a future council agenda.

During discussion, the council asked that staff modify the ordinance to allow an exemption for medical marijuana use, after Councilmember Mónica Solórzano, Councilmember Roy Lee and Vice Mayor Natalia Alarcon voiced sympathies for such cases.

Carpinteria would be the second city in the Santa Barbara County to take on a smoking ban for multi-unit housing developments; the first was the City of

Guadalupe.

“I think it’s really great that we’ll be one of the country leaders in terms of cities that are moving forward with an ordinance like this,” Councilmember Solórzano said.

A change in the city’s smoking ordinance was first proposed brought to the city in April 2021 by Carpinteria’s Future Leaders of America – a group composed of students and led by Melisa Villafuerte Mendoza – who advocated banning flavored nicotine and smoking in multi-unit housing developments in the city, citing a disproportionate impact to Latinx families.

Under the current ordinance, smoking is prohibited in public spaces, spaces offering health or childcare, common areas of multi-family dwellings, places of employment, public transportation and public service areas such as restaurants, bars, hotels, etc.

S tudents from Future Leaders of America came out in droves on Monday to offer public comment in favor of the ordinance and share their experiences with second-hand smoke in multi-unit housing developments.

“I, myself, live in an apart ment where second-hand smoke and thirdhand smoke is something that regularly occurs. I often find myself having to smell smoke from outside and hold my breath in order to protect my health,” Christine Echeverria said during public comment.

City splits grant between Carpinteria Camino Scholars program, Girls Inc. of Carpinteria

The Carpinteria City Council decided to split the federal Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Public Services Grant funding – $14,890 – between the People’s Self-Help Housing’s Carpinteria Camino Scholars program and Girls Inc. of Carpinteria’s Out-of-School Support programming.

The United States Department of Housing and Urban Development annually awards the County of Santa Barbara a certain amount of grant funding to be put toward public service-oriented activities and capital projects that are distributed among various municipalities. The city created a committee in 2007 that annually reviews applications from various organizations for the public service portion of the grant.

The committee looks to highlight organizations that help address affordable housing, improve the environment and quality of living in low-income areas and expand economic opportunity. Wanting to support both organizations, the committee recommended an even split of the funding, with each organization receiving $7,445.

The Camino Scholars Program assists English language learners from low-income households through after-school childcare enrichment programming, culturally informed academic support, retention programs and college preparatory programs. The organization originally requested $25,000 in grant funding.

Girls Inc. of Carpinteria provides childcare and programming for students from low-income backgrounds after school and during breaks from school. The organization’s out-of-school programming assists girls in furthering their academic and

career interests while supporting physical and mental health. The organization originally requested $14,890 in grant funding.

“Thanks to the past generous support from the city, we have been able to make a tangible impact in the lives of nearly 1,000 youth in our community in this past year alone,” Tess Ortega, development director of Girls Inc. of Carpinteria, said on Monday. “Thank you for your time and consideration, together we can continue to make a positive impact on the lives of those we serve.”

Councilmember Mónica Solórzano said she appreciated that the county was supporting organizations providing outof-school childcare.

“That’s something that seems like it’s increasingly becoming a really important issue in terms of youth safety and sitting on the South Coast Youth Safety Partnership, that’s been something that’s been a big topic of discussion,” Solórzano said.

The city of Carpinteria must build 286 very-low-income housing units; 132 low-income housing units; 135 moderate-income housing units; and 438 above-moderate-income housing units, for a total of 901 units, to meet its housing needs.

City out of compliance with Housing Element law

Rezoning needs delay approval

The city of Carpinteria remains out of compliance with California Housing Element Law, city staff said Monday. The city’s Housing Element Annual Progress Report, compiled by city staff, is due to the California Department of Housing and Community Development by April 1.

The city readopted its original Housing Element several months late in January. Despite meeting all the requirements for certification, the California Department of Housing and Community Development declined to certify the city’s plan “since the city would not be able to complete its required rezones to meet its Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) shortfall by the statutory deadline of February 15, 2024,” according to the staff report.

Until the city completes the rezoning processes necessary to create sufficient housing to meet the outlined goals of RHNA, it will remain out of compliance with California Housing Element Law.

According to the report, 10 building permits were issued for accessory dwelling units in 2023. By RHNA standards, the city must create 286 units for very-low-income housing, 132 units for low-income housing, 135 units for moderate-income housing and 348 units for above-moderate-income housing for a total of 901 units.

Housing projects in the process of approval include three new condominiums through the Zins triplex, two new single-family residences, two new apartments through the Cruz mixed-development project and 18 ADUs.

Council declares April Carpinteria Beautiful Month

The Carpinteria City Council declared April 2024 to be Carpinteria Beautiful Month, recognizing the national theme of Keep America Beautiful Month.

According to the proclamation, the city will co-sponsor a community clean-up day with Carpinteria Beautiful at Parking Lot No. 3 on Saturday, March 23 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The proclamation also highlighted city beautification efforts that occur year-round.

“Throughout the month of April, Carpinteria Beautiful volunteers will continue their year-round efforts to remove graffiti and fill the doggie bag dispensers, and the Adopt-a-Spotters and Trash Mob will redouble their already considerable efforts to keep Carpinteria litter-free,” Councilmember Roy Lee read aloud from the proclamation.

The proclamation also included a commitment to maintaining Carpinteria’s urban forests. The council and proclamation urged Carpinterians to “share in the observance of this month by making a personal commitment to enhance the beauty of their own properties and neighborhoods for the benefit and enjoyment of all.”

Barbara Ann Jacinto (Espinoza) of Santa Barbara, age 85, passed away of natural causes comfortably in her home on Feb. 24, 2024.

Barbara was born March 29, 1938 to Buford A. Sarrett and (Thelma) Faye Cates in Grandfield, Okla. Barbara came to California with her family in 1945. She attended Carpinteria High School where she graduated in 1955. She later started her career with General Telephone Electric (GTE) as a telephone operator, where she then worked her way up the ranks.

In 1988, Barbara retired from GTE and made her home in Santa Barbara, Calif. Barbs spent much of her time through the years cooking, baking (she was known for her famous homemade hot fudge sundae topping), reading, doing crossword puzzles and crocheting/ sewing. She loved to travel and enjoyed all sorts of music. She was an active member of her church and enjoyed family functions. She was loving, compassionate, kind and giving. She had a contagious laugh and was as

quick-witted as she was funny. One of her hobbies in retirement was shopping QVC and HSN regularly.

In 1963, Barbara married her first husband Jesse H. Espinoza in Carpinteria, Calif. at Saint Joseph Church. Barbara and Jess went on to have four children: Regina, Trini, Jesse Jr. and Norma. Barbara married her second husband Joe Jacinto in 2003. Barbara and Joe lived in Oxnard for a short time, but would soon return to Santa Barbara.

She was predeceased in death by her parents Buford Sarrett and Faye Pascua; sister Phyllis Lopez; first husband Jesse Espinoza; and second husband Joe Jacinto. She is survived by her sister Norma Jimenez of Carpinteria; brother Phil Lopez of Santa Barbara; and cousin June Williams of Lawton, Okla.

She is also survived by her children, Regina Rodriguez (Rudy), Trini Macias (Joe), Jesse Espinoza and Norma Espinoza, and her grandchildren Tyler Espinoza, Yvonne Rodriguez, Blake Espinoza and Diego Hernandez.

Barbara was a member of the Santa Barbara Neptune Society and wished that she be released at sea in the Santa Barbara Channel. In lieu of flowers, Barbara would have loved for donations to be made to any organizations for veterans or cancer research as they hold special meaning to her, having survived cancer herself and having family in the armed forces.

The family wishes to extend a heartfelt thanks to and much appreciation for Rosanna Petronella PA, CDE at Sansum Clinic for the many years of impeccable care and empathy she always extended to our mother.

A celebration of life in honor of our beloved Babs will be held at a future date.

Check out Our Neighborhood Voices

Are you concerned about all of the development planning looming in Carpinteria’s future due to state housing requirements? Have you noticed that ever since Covid-19, things have changed in our little beach town? More traffic, faster drivers, story poles, VRBOs, vacant second homes, avaricious hotel developers and the list goes on.

I feel our casual, down-home way of life is being threatened. We need to do something about it. Our infrastructure can’t sustain our wonderful lifestyle with all of the potential housing units and hotels on the drawing board… that, by the way, will create more of a need for real affordable housing.

I encourage you, fellow residents, to check out Our Neighborhood Voices (ONV). It will be a state initiative that will try to gain support throughout California. This initiative is specific to land use and zoning issues that cities and counties are currently experiencing with this demand

for more housing. The ONV initiative would bring more local control back to neighborhoods and residents in regard to new housing.

Also, there are two newly introduced legislative bills that further endanger overdevelopment of our coastal community. Senator Scott Wiener’s Senate Bill 951 aims to change San Francisco’s coastal zone and weaken the Coastal Commission’s integrity. More recently, Assemblymember David Alvarez and Wiener’s Assembly Bill 2560 attempts to remove the density bonus law exception for the Coastal Zone. The entire city of Carpinteria is located within the designated California Coastal Zone!

Please visit ONV’s website at ourneighborhoodvoices.com and sign up as a supporter if you agree. They hold regular Zoom informational meetings on Wednesdays if you have any questions or if you’d like to help. We are working on a community meeting in Carpinteria. Let’s get involved before it’s too late!

Deputies responded to a motel on Via Real for a report of a domestic violence incident. Upon arrival, a deputy contacted a man and woman in the parking lot.

Deputies responded after a woman reported her residence was burglarized the prior night. The woman stated a cartoon of almond milk and tools were taken from her garage. She told the reporting deputy that the tools belonged to her daughter’s boyfriend. The deputy attempted to contact the man via telephone multiple times with no response. The woman stated her garage door was unlocked during the night and is in the process of getting a new lock. She did not have any suspect information at the time.

CVN visits Australian vineyard

Jennifer Warf of Carpinteria brought her copy of CVN along on a three-week trip through Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, snapping a photo in a vineyard near Melbourne, Australia. “This was a trip of a lifetime, planned since this almost 60-year-old reader was a kid discovering Polynesia and Australia in (my) family’s encyclopedias,” Warf told CVN. “So many wonders but the best was the new friends made along the way.”

CVN summits Mount Kilimanjaro

Carpinteria resident Tim Robinson and his stepson Tate Larrick successfully climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania on Feb. 17, stopping at the summit of the mountain to take a photo with their copy of CVN. “Five of six of the Robinson family party made it to the top,” Tim told CVN. “We were on a seven-day trip and went up the Machame Route summiting right at sunrise. What a spectacular trip to the top of the African Continent.”

Congratulations!

Appreciation

I would like to recognize the district’s leadership team – Maureen Fitzgerald, Diana Zapata, Monica Thomas, Mari Hornback, Aaron LaPlante, Gerardo Cornejo, Lisa O’Shea, Jamie Persoon, Brett Weiberg, Carolyn Haines, Ricardo Cota, Kirsten Neumann and Jeremiah Sobenes – for their outstanding leadership and tireless work in supporting teachers, staff, students and their families this year.

CHS MESA winners

This year CHS MESA competed in the Math Escape Challenge and the Crime Scene Science competitions at the UC Santa Barbara College Destination Day. CHS Crime Scene Science team – Natalie Martinez and Brenda Martinez – placed third, and the Math Escape Challenge team – Athziry Rojas, Ashley Vences and Julie Maya – won first place and will be moving forward to regionals at USC on Saturday, April 13. Lastly, a huge thank you to Mr. Muralles, CHS Spanish teacher, for chaperoning our students.

CHS Mock Trial winners

Congratulations to the CHS Mock Trial team for winning third place in the rigorous county-wide competition at the Santa Barbara County Courthouse this past weekend. We appreciate the faculty

March 2024 National Social Work Month

Every March, National Social Work Month recognizes the dedication and empathy social workers across the country deliver while providing services to children and adults in need. Social workers are advocates, advisors, counselors and facilitators in schools, clinics, businesses and government offices. CUSD partners with the Family Service Agency to provide school social workers at Canalino Elementary and Carpinteria Family School (CFS), Aliso Elementary School and CHS, who support students and families, and we are grateful for Nicol De La Rosa, Vanessa Jimenez and Cristal Camberos.

Parent conferences

Elementary parent conferences will be held during March 18–22 minimum days. Working with our families to support student learning is a professional expectation and standard for all CUSD teachers. Effective teachers develop strong partnerships with families to ensure student engagement and support. These spring parent conferences provide the opportunity for parents to learn more about their student’s progress in achieving grade-level standards by June in preparation for the next grade level. Teachers provide many strategies for parents to help their students at home. Good nutrition, sleeping habits, limited screen time and nightly reading for 30 minutes are also reinforced.

Spring Bridge the Break program: March 25-29

CUSD is partnering with United Way of Santa Barbara County to offer the Spring 2024 Bridge the Break program (formerly Expanded Learning Break) for elementary students.

This program is a free, week-long initiative designed to provide a unique blend of academic enrichment and recreational activities during the upcoming spring break. Bridge the Break will take place March 25–29, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Canalino Elementary School, with breakfast, lunch and snacks provided. Students in transitional kindergarten through fifth grade will participate in literacy, math, STEAM, recreation and more in an engaging learning environment.

Carpinteria students elected to represent FFA South Coast Region

Carpinteria High School (CHS) students Evelyn C. and Angel P. – both members of the Carpinteria Future Farmers of America club – were recently chosen to serve the South Coast Region of FFA, spokesperson Noe Gomez said in an email.

Gomez said that Angel and Evelyn were two of the 11 region officers chosen to represent the area between Santa Cruz and Los Angeles.

“The last time a CHS student had this honor was over three decades ago. Not only have we broken that streak now, but it has been broken with two of our students,” Gomez said. “Angel and Evelyn now preside over thousands and thousands of students in our wonderful South Coast. Congratulations, Angel, Evelyn, and advisors Mr. Lopez and Ms. Garcia,” Gomez said in an email.

Workability program tours police station

The Carpinteria Unified School District’s Workability program – a program that takes Carpinteria’s special education students to local businesses to learn about possible future careers – took its latest field trip to the Carpinteria Sheriff’s Station. The trip was organized by Community Resource Deputy Bryan Dickey, the program’s teacher, Kelli Flores, told CVN.

Flores said the students have been on several field trips this year, each focused on students’ individual interests – “a tradition that has proven to be incredibly enriching for their learning experience,” she said.

“One particular outing that left a lasting impression was out visit to the police station, made possible by the generosity and kindness of Office Dickey,” she added. “Officer Dickey, a weekly presence on our campus, graciously organized a tour that allowed our students to explore the inner workings of the police station and get up close with police cars. The students were particularly enthralled by the sirens and the opportunity to explore the inside of cars, making it an unforgettable experience for them.”

“I want to extend our deepest gratitude to Officer Dickey for his time, effort, and commitment to creating a meaningful experience for our students,” she emphasized.

Flores said that the officers were engaging and informative with the students, and that Workability is her favorite class to teach.

“The impact of these community outings goes beyond the classroom, as students learn essential life skills and gain valuable experiences that contribute to their personal growth,” she said, adding that following the field trip, the students had lunch at Taco Bell, where they practiced their speech and social skills by ordering food and handling money.

Members of the Carpinteria Unified School District’s Workability program–a program that allows special education students to visit local businesses and learn about possible careers – recently toured the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office Coastal Station.

It seemed such a longshot dream, fraught as it was with echoing thoughts from my childhood home about how surfing was just a vehicle for the stoner’s half-life, under-realized and barely functional. “You can’t choose your university based on how the surf is!” I was told when I said I wanted to go to Santa Cruz.

But I went anyway, got into the writing program at UC Santa Cruz, and kept surfing.

In 1995, I started shaping up there as well and I stayed on in Santa Cruz after college with a good circle of friends I still have today. Driving up to San Francisco one night a week, I then earned a master’s degree in creative writing while working at the Santa Cruz Parks Department in maintenance. All this came after a fiveyear enlistment with the Navy Seabees.

My parents’ worry about the surfer-stoner life wasn’t entirely unwarranted, but it seems almost quaint today in a society where every manner of cannabis product is licensed and sold in dispensaries. The social strata in surfing seems to have changed too, with a wider set of people involved who appear to have gotten their lives together professionally before getting into wave riding.

The guys (and it was mostly guys in the

It horrifies me that I can so easily count, right off the top of my head, five classmates of mine who are gone now from overdose. I thank God that I never got into it – some deep-seated, selfpreservation instinct kept me from messing with the deadly stuff.

‘80s and ‘90s) who were the most hardcore either went pro, got surf-industry jobs, or got involved in selling and using drugs. (Some did all three.) Of course, this only reflects my experience coming from Newport Beach where working in the surf industry was a real option, as was the drug trade and its attending hazards. But then again, overdosing is easy these days anywhere in America.

I reference drug use because it horrifies me that I can so easily count, right off the top of my head, five classmates of mine who are gone now from overdose.

I thank God that I never got into it – some deep-seated, self-preservation instinct kept me from messing with the deadly stuff (not that my dance with alcohol couldn’t have done it). So, having sidestepped death by overdose, an entire life (God willing) remains to be lived by each of us.

I’m realizing, as I embody my mid-50s, that life requires great care. Care for self and care for others, is the touchstone. We must remain care-full. Careful, but not forgetting to have some abandon as well: tending the things that need tending and abandoning ourselves to the things we love – remembering that we have only these days, here and now, and that to put off joy is to risk missing the point of it all.

Speaking of joy, maybe now let’s leave off the talk of drugs, death and the imperative to care and turn back to surfing, shall we? The long struggle to believe I could shape surfboards, surf and write – that I mentioned at the beginning – resolved itself over time. I just kept with it as well as I could, through multiple stages of life. And it seems there were a couple of crucial crossroads where rather than do the safe thing, I chose surfing and shaping.

It seems to be true, at least in my experience, that one can do whatever one likes in this life, with a heavy caveat of accepting responsibility for one’s actions. And I’m torn on my opinion of “manifesting” – the notion that whatever you believe about yourself, you get. Yes, it’s true that the mind is a powerful instrument, capable of creating all sorts of realities, but the part of the whole manifesting schtick I don’t like is the way it leaves people feeling like they alone are to blame when they don’t own their dream home.

“Manifesting” in my life has looked like shaping surfboards any chance I could get since 1995, until finally, during the Covid-19 rush four years ago, I had a sufficient backlog of orders for a “now or never” leap into business full-time. Naturally, the past two years have seen a severe downturn in the surfboard market (experienced by every board builder and glass shop). The good news is that I still have surfboards to shape every day, and things are looking up!

I have a very low-budget marketing scheme on Instagram (@christianbeamish) where I do my best surfboard salesman routine most workdays with the boards I’m shaping. It’s called the B.O.D Report (Board of the Day), and I often highlight the characteristics of my designs. Today, I was talking about single fin design on camera with my buddy Michael Arenal, who also shapes at 500 Maple Ave. He asked my opinion on shorter single fins in the six-foot range, and I observed that I feel they work better with some length, since the single fin doesn’t have the same quick speed

generation as multi-fin boards.

Not long after posting the video, I received a message from Phil Myers, one of the early craftsmen involved in the single fin channel bottom design in New South Wales, Australia. Phil explained that he made lots of singles in the sixfoot range, and still does, and he finds they work well. Contradicted by one of the greats! Phil was very gracious last year to have me over to his place when I visited Australia with my family, and he took me through his process of shaping the channel bottoms, which was a very valuable experience.

A number of other people, local and farther afield, then chimed in with their opinions – most of them agreeing about liking the short single fins, or at least referencing other moments from surf history involving the shorter boards. (As if I’m not aware of Rabbit at Burliegh Heads and Kirra, or Bertlemann et. al., in Hawai’i circa ’76!)

Anyway, small potatoes, but I still hold to my opinion that the shorter single fins lack the get-up-and-go of multi-finned boards, and that the best aspect of the single fin design is the flow and lowinput required from the rider, which leads me to suggest to my clients that they ride the “performance” single fins as slightly longer boards (6’8” to 7’2”). I also suggest they refrain from using deadly drugs, and that they snatch what fun they can in between caring for themselves and the people in their lives.

Christian Beamish took leave of his position at Coastal View News in October 2020, to pursue his surfboard business, Surfboards California, full time. He continues his monthly column, and shapes at the surfboard factory showroom at 500 Maple Ave., in Carpinteria. The former Associate Editor of The Surfer’s Journal, Beamish is also the author of “Voyage of the Cormorant,” (Patagonia Books, 2012) about his single-handed expedition down the coast of Baja California by sail and oar in his self-built Shetland Isle beach boat. He now lives with his wife and two children in Ventura.

Carpinteria’s Intergenerational Tea celebrates women

Carpinterians of all ages gathered at Girls Inc. of Carpinteria for the second annual International Tea on Saturday, March 9, organized by Women Making Change in recognition of Women’s History Month. Women Making Change – a local group that supports and recognizes local women and girls – treated attendees to an afternoon of desserts, tea, delicious bites and conversation.

This year’s keynote speaker was third-generation Carpinterian Julia Mayer, who discussed her values, vision and work in the community, according to Women Making Change spokesperson Kimberly Gutierrez.

Gutierrez told CVN that Women Making Change will be donating to local organizations that support women and girls, including the Carpinteria Children’s Project, the Carpinteria Woman’s Club, Domestic Violence Solutions and Girls Inc. of Carpinteria.

Linden Ave. march honors International Women’s Day

In honor of International Women’s Day, Carpinterians of all ages took to the streets on Friday, March 8 for the annual march, which started on Linden Avenue and headed down to the beach.

“March 8 is International Women’s Day. It’s a global day to recognize and celebrate women’s and girls’ social, economic, cultural, and political achievements,” spokesperson Kimberly Gutierrez told CVN. “It’s also a time to raise awareness of the progress made towards achieving gender equality and the work remaining to be done. Women Making Change holds a march down Linden Ave to the beach on this day every year.”

The full Women Making Change lineup – programming that celebrates women and girls throughout the month of March – can be seen online at carpinteriawomansclub.com.

IN THE NATUREHOOD

These are good times for frogs. With all the rain we have been having, spring nights are filled with their choruses –especially if you have a pond or creek nearby. The most boisterous and common frogs we have are the Baja California (formerly Pacific) tree frogs.

Most of the year they live quietly on land, hidden by their camouflage. But come the rain, they head for water, where they “sing” their hearts out to find a mate.

The loud, two-note “kreck-ecks” come from tiny frogs that are slightly larger than a quarter. Yet they rise together into an astounding chorus when they gather in numbers near water.

To me, their chorus is the sound of spring and hope, especially after our previous years of drought. Frogs are amphibians, a word derived from Latin means “two lives.” Frogs need water to lay their eggs. The eggs hatch into larvae which we know as tadpoles, wriggling through the water with their long tails. Eventually, they resorb their tail, grow legs and metamorphize into adult frogs that live on land. Adhesive disks on their toes enable them to cling to surfaces – like the avocado trees in our orchard, where they lie in wait for insects such as ants, flies and moths.

With bulging eyes on top of their heads, huge mouths for gulping food and an ability to hop many times their length, frogs are amongst the most charming of creatures. It’s perhaps why they are so beloved as characters in children’s books such as the “Frog and Toad” series by Arnold Lobel.

While frogs are smooth, toads have bumpy skin and live on the ground, coming to water to breed. Sadly, toads have become increasingly rare.

Froggy went a-courtin’

Tree frogs have an almost magical ability to change their color. Being able to blend in is useful since herons, egrets and red-shouldered hawks will eat them like popcorn.

Their camouflage makes them hard for us to spot too. The most visible part is the males’ puffy throat, which swells up like a balloon when they are calling for females, resonating the sounds like a megaphone.

Frogs are known as spirit helpers by some indigenous peoples. So, one winter 10 years ago, when my spirits needed lifting because I was going through radiation treatment, my friends Sue Webb and Eric Kuhn from Canmore Canada came to help me build a small frog pond.

My husband Ken had to go away on a reporting trip for the Los Angeles Times He told me not to put it under the oak trees, because there would be too many leaves clogging the pond. However, after looking around, we figured that was the best place. We positioned it next to the house so it would be easily accessible and so you could hear the frogs from inside.

Our idea was, “Build it and they will come.” And with a pond, we could help frogs by providing water year-round despite droughts.

But it was not, as it turned out, all that easy. The ground was like concrete. Sue and Eric chipped away with shovels for a couple of days barely denting it, until our neighbor Ed Van Wingerden stopped by. Seeing our feeble progress, Ed left and returned with a jackhammer and two helpers. In short order, they blasted through the compressed dirt. With their help, we had the pond excavated in a day.

We then lined it with heavy plastic from Ed’s greenhouse. When my husband Ken returned – despite his chagrin at the location – he came to my aid, as he always does. He undergrounded the electricity for a pump and helped make it beautiful. We added rock work and vegetation for protection for critters. (But let me add, there are simpler ways to make a frog pond – a tub with aeration could work.)

It took a while for a frog to find the pond but eventually one night, as we sat inside, we heard the “KRECK” of one very loud tree frog. We rushed outside and there he was, sitting on a lily pad. We called him Klezmer because he croaked with such exuberance trying to attract a

female. And soon he did. He also attracted other male frogs who hid in the vegetation around the pond and competed with him adding to the chorus.

Male frogs are smaller than their female counterparts. When pairing up, the smaller male sits atop the female and hugs her; this is called amplexus, which is Latin for “embrace.” The female lays her eggs in clusters as the male fertilizes them externally. The eggs take a couple of weeks to mature. If they survive being eaten, they hatch into tadpoles and eventually adults.

The pond has been the best gift anyone has ever given me. I like to go out these spring evenings with a flashlight. It’s a game to see how many tree frogs I can spot, as they are so well camouflaged.

Frog numbers around the world have decreased dramatically due to habitat loss, pesticides and disease. And, increasingly, droughts have taken their toll.

So even small habitats are a help. A pondlet on a patio can raise entire frog generations. Even the smallest water features will attract wildlife to your yard, and always lift your spirits.

CVN’s Seal Watch weekly report, written by Seal Watch volunteers, covers activities at the Harbor Seal Rookery. The group can be reached at carpsealwatch@ gmail.com or at (805) 364-3194. The rookery is located immediately east of Casitas Pier, between Carpinteria Bluffs Nature Preserve and Carpinteria State Beach.

NATURAL HISTORY NOTES

Visitors and even some volunteers sometimes worry when pups are seen being repulsed by other moms and calling for their mom – a “maaaa” sound, which is the only time harbor seal vocalize. This is natural, as harbor seals do not store sufficient fat to stay on shore till pups are weaned at about 4-6 weeks. The moms need to forage and may be offshore for many hours.

Volunteers do note when a pup appears to become malnourished, and CIMWI is notified in case the pup moves and a rescue outside the sanctuary is possible. It’s a fact of life that some pups do die, and local Turkey vultures will be seen living their lives as the clean-up crew.

VISITORS

The count was 1,829 and included people from Denmark, India, Canada, Lithuania, Estonia, Germany, China, Thailand, the United Kingdom, Syria, Portugal, Sweden, Michigan, Kansas, Missouri, Washington, Kentucky, Ohio, Texas, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, New York, Utah, Alaska, Minnesota, South Dakota, Montana, Massachusetts, Tennessee, Alabama, New Jersey, Maine, New Mexico and Georgia.

DISTURBANCES

A sonic boom flushed an unspecified number of seals into the ocean.

Please consider honoring the Marine Mammal Protection Act and not walking the seal sanctuary beach all year. Do not 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 always remain outside the rope area.

Carpinteria Seal Watchers do some monitoring of our local seals year-round; we would like to increase visitor services and data collection year-round, but more volunteers are always needed. Contact Seal Watch at carpsealwatch@gmail.com or at (805) 364-3194 if you’d like to help!

On the first Thursday of each month, CVN publishes the Honor Roll to thank readers and advertisers for their generous support. For the past 14 years, this support has played a critical role in keeping CVN in the stands each week and full of local news that cannot be found in any other media. The outpouring of support inspired by the Honor Roll has established a deeper connection between the newspaper and its readers. Additionally, the hundreds of names that appear in the Honor Roll send a message to advertisers: Carpinterians are dedicated to their local newspaper. In turn, the staff of CVN is dedicated to its readers. As the publishers of your community newspaper, we appreciate the relationship we have with you, our readers, and we pledge to keep bringing you all the news of the Carpinteria Valley.

CVN Macaroni Salad

CHEF RANDY

RANDY GRAHAM

Are you looking for a scrumptious, easy-to-prepare lunch for your friends and family? Look no more. This mac salad recipe is colorful as well as delicious. It is also the perfect vegan dish for barbecues and potlucks that will take place this spring and summer!

Makes 4 servings.

Ingredients:

2 cups small elbow macaroni (uncooked)

¾ cup Vegenaise

2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 tablespoon yellow mustard

½ teaspoon salt

½ cup celery (about 2 medium stalks chopped fine)

½ cup orange bell pepper (seeded and chopped fine)

½ cup red bell pepper (seeded and chopped fine)

½ cup carrot (grated fine)

½ cup red onion (chopped fine) 2-ounce can of sliced black olives Italian parsley (optional garnish)

Directions:

Boil macaroni and cook until al dente, about eight minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.

In a large bowl, stir together Vegenaise, vinegar, sugar, mustard, salt, celery, bell peppers, carrots, onions and olives. Gently stir in cooked macaroni. Garnish with fresh parsley. Chill in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours before serving.

Kids in the saddle: the Rincon Derby of 1936

On two Saturdays in the summer of 1936, children and horses from the Carpinteria area converged on the beach at Rincon Point for the Rincon Handicap Horse Races Bates Sweepstakes, organized by 15-year-old Bobby Bates.

In the files of the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History, you’ll find a faded entry blank for the Rincon Races. A childish scrawl says that Richard Kistler will ride Marilyn Shepard’s horse Pete. Other jockeys included Benny Baker, Lawry Bailard, Jerry Rubel, and the winner, diminutive Joan Rock, who wasn’t quite 11 years old.

In 1994, when they both were about 70, Joan Rock ended up marrying one of the riders she had defeated in 1936: Lawry Bailard.

“She claims her horse was really fast,” Bailard reminisced in a letter to Bobby Bates, “but I maintain that she didn’t have to carry much and should have been handicapped.”

Stephen Bates, the son of Bobby Bates, is coauthor (with Vince Burns) of the book “Rincon Point,” on sale at the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History and elsewhere.

Bobby Bates, shown here as a student at Midland School in 1938, organized the Rincon Handicap Horse Races in 1936 when he was 15 years old. This handbill promoted the Rincon Races. Bobby Bates’s cousin, 15-year-old Harry Meryman, probably ran off the handbills in the print shop at his prep school in Massachusetts. Spectators at the races paid 10 cents for admission, Spartan seating and the chance to flaunt their stylish outfits and accessories. Rincon champion Joan Rock, not yet 11 years old, poses with her trophy. Nearly 60 years later, she married another rider in the 1936 races, Lawry Bailard.

Carpinteria boys volleyball on a four-game win streak

Warriors’ hot streak includes three 3-0 sweeps over three days

After starting the season on a threegame skid, Carpinteria boys volleyball has turned it around, winning four matches in a row to move to 4-3 overall. The Warriors had an especially impressive performance over the past week, rolling through three opponents in three straight 3-0 sweeps in a row on three consecutive days.

The Warriors came into the week with a 1-3 record, fresh off their first win of the season on Feb. 29 over Cabrillo of Lompoc. On Wednesday, March 6, the Warriors got back into the win column in the Citrus Coast League opener at home against the Fillmore Flashes.

All 16 members of the Carpinteria team got significant playing time against Fillmore, with coach Favian Muralles showcasing the Warriors’ depth and newfound team chemistry. The Warriors won in three straight sets (25-10, 25-19, 25-18), with Cole Rowbottom leading the team with 10 kills in the win.

Javier Reyes contributed seven kills, Andres Cruz finished with five, and Mario Mares added four kills towards the team’s winning efforts. Anthony Mendoza was a sharpshooter from the service line with five aces.

“This win marks a positive start to the season,” coach Muralles said. “The team’s commitment, effective communication and unwavering energy throughout the game will pair well for upcoming challenges in the season.”

The next night, on March 7, the Warriors hit the road to face the Nordhoff Rangers. Carpinteria had an uphill battle in the first set, but the Warriors pulled out the win, 25-21. The second set was handled easily by Carpinteria, 25-11, and the Warriors sealed the 3-0 sweep with a 25-23 win in the third and final set.

Cruz led the team with seven kills, while both Rowbottom and Reyes finished with six kills each. Andres Quesada

was instrumental to the offense with 14 assists, and Angel Zamora kept the ball off the ground with a team-high 16 digs.

“Despite the challenges faced in today’s match, the team’s ability to secure victory showcases their determination and ability to overcome obstacles together,” coach Muralles said.

Playing for the third night in a row, Carpinteria hit the road to face the Santa Maria Saints on Friday, March 8.

Santa Maria took an eight-point lead in the first set, but the Warriors were able to rally back and win, 27-25. The second set was another thrilling battle, with the Warriors pulling away, 25-23. In the third set, Carpinteria picked up the win, 25-20, giving the team its fourth 3-0 sweep in a

row and third such win in three straight days.

Again it was Rowbottom and Reyes leading the way, each with 12 kills, while Quesada continued to orchestrate the offense with a game-high 30 assists in

The Warriors are now 4-3 overall, and 2-0 in the Citrus Coast League, heading into another busy week looking to extend their win streak with matches against Channel

Carpinteria track and field

falls to Santa Ynez

Carpinteria headed to Santa Ynez for a non-league track and field meet on Thursday, March 7, where Santa Ynez pulled away in both the boys and girls competitions.

In the boys events, Santa Ynez won by a final tally of 84-60. Senior Wes Chung won three events for Carpinteria, including a season-best time of 17.3 in the 110-meter hurdles and first-place finishes in the 300-meter hurdles and high jump. Carpinteria junior Sawyer Kelly won the triple jump; junior Nathan Carillo placed first in the pole vault; and junior Joel De Lira won the 800-meter race.

Santa Ynez also took the overall win in the girls events, with a final score of 7159. Carpinteria Freshman Cora Nimmons and sophomore Vivian Huskins both set new personal records with wins in the high jump and 200 meters, respectively, while Warriors senior sprinters Lela Roberts and Mika Mullikin took the top spots in the girls 100 hurdles and 300 hurdles. Senior Averi Alexander continued to build on her strong season with another first-place finish in the triple jump.

“Despite coming up short in the scoring, it was a good learning experience for the Warriors today,” said Carpinteria coach Van Latham.

Warriors swimmers power through Nordhoff Rangers

Carpinteria hosted Nordhoff for a dual swim meet, and the Warriors boys and girls both picked up wins in convincing fashion, with the boys winning 110-50 and girls by a score of 82-53.

Carpinteria’s Jacob Otsuki grabbed two wins on the day, taking first place in both the 50- and 100-meter freestyle races. Senior Jake Ehlers took the win in the 500 freestyle, and the boys quartet of Ehlers, Otsuki, Asher Smith and Jackson Melton combined for two relay wins.

On the girls side, Giulia Piccoletti picked up a first-place win in the 200 individual medley, as did Allison Banks in the 100 backstroke and Devyn Clayton in the 100 butterfly. The freshman trio of Izzy Scott, Lucy Moore and Hazel Dugre finished in first, second and third in the 100 freestyle.

Carpinteria will be back in the pool this week with a meet on the road against Malibu.

Ashlee Mora has carried the load as the Warriors only pitcher this season.

Carpinteria softball hits tough stretch

Warriors softball dropped to 1-5 overall after losing three straight games against Nordhoff, Bishop Diego and Santa Paula.

Nordhoff took an early lead against Carpinteria on Wednesday, March 8, scoring five runs in the first inning. And despite a big home run from Warriors senior Amarisse Camargo later in the first inning, Nordhoff was able to hold on for the 12-2 win.

The next day Carpinteria headed to Santa Barbara to face Bishop Diego. The Warriors were trailing 1-0 for much of the game, but Bishop Diego broke loose with six runs in the final two innings to pull away with the 7-0 shutout over Carpinteria.

On Tuesday, March 12, the Warriors tested out a new lineup on the road against Santa Paula. Mora blasted a home run for Carpinteria in the first inning, but Santa Paula would respond in the next inning to take a 2-1 lead. Just as in the previous game, the Warriors gave up a flurry of runs in the late innings, allowing eight runs in the fourth and fifth innings and falling by a final score of 10-4.

Carpinteria is now 1-5 overall, and 0-3 in the Citrus Coast League, with a chance for a revenge win against Nordhoff this week.

Warriors baseball plays under the lights

In a rare night baseball game on the road against the Foothill Tech in Ventura, Carpinteria gave up an early lead and the Warriors fell to the Dragons by a final score of 9-4.

The Warriors jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the top of the first inning, but Foothill Tech came right back to tie the score. Then, the Dragons took the lead and never looked back, scoring nine unanswered runs and handing Carpinteria its first loss of the season.

“It’s been two weeks since we last played a game so there were some clear signs of rust,” said Carpinteria coach Pat Cooney. “It was really important to play some live innings whether we played well or not. There isn’t any doubt that it was an ugly game but we also felt like there were some really positive takeaways.”

Carpinteria will jump right into Citrus Coast League action with a two-game home-and-away series against Hueneme this week.

Warriors tennis earns second win

Carpinteria boys tennis moved to 2-4 overall after splitting two league matches against Hueneme and Channel Islands.

The Warriors visited Hueneme on Thursday, March 7, and after a long day of tennis both teams were locked at 9-9, forcing the match to be decided in games won, giving Hueneme the slight edge and the victory, 61-56.

Despite the loss, Carpinteria had some solid highlights. Brothers Nolan and Lucas Martin teamed up in doubles play to go 2-1, while the duo of Edwin Hernandez and Elio Taha swept all three sets. In singles, Carpinteria’s Max Stone dominated all three sets – dropping only one game. Stone, the Warriors’ top singles player, has not lost in a regular season or playoff match in more than a year and a half.

“Overall, this was a tough loss to take,” said Carpinteria coach Charles Bryant. “I give Hueneme credit as they fought hard throughout. They are very improved and I just don’t think I did enough to prepare our team for them. It will be another tight match when we

play them again in a week.”

On Tuesday, March 12, the Warriors were back on the court, and back in the win column, with a 13-5 win on the road over Channel Islands. The match was much closer than the final score, with Carpinteria pulling out the win despite some tight sets against the Vikings.

In singles, Stone continued his dominating season with yet another perfect run through all three sets. Taha, a freshman, proved to be another weapon for the Warriors, picking up three sets of his own in singles.

In doubles, the Martin brothers teamed up to go 3-0, as did the upand-coming Warriors duo of Servando Campuzano and John Morrison. “They are starting to become a stronger duo with each set they play,” coach Bryant said of Campuzano and Morrison.
