Bluffs hotel & restaurant concept to be reviewed at special meeting on March 30

A special meeting of the City Council, Planning Commission and Architectural Review Board will be held on Wednesday, March 30, at 5:30 p.m. to review a new conceptual development project at 5885 Carpinteria Ave. The 28-acre site is now occupied by Tee Time golf driving range, farmland and an undeveloped 4.5 acres between the railroad tracks and the blufftop.

The proposed project, “Carpinteria Farm & Hospitality Experience,” submitted by Carp Bluff, LLC, includes roughly 7 acres of organic farm, a hotel with a 59-room lodge, 34 bungalows and six cabins; 16 residential units located in a single building; open space and trails; and a restaurant, event space and farm stand designed to serve the community.

The developers described the project in their proposal as “a community driven regenerative farm, boutique hotel, restaurant and residential experience set among Carpinteria’s coastal pastoral lands, at the intersection of mountain and sea. It celebrates the farming heritage of the community and the integrity of the land.”

Of the existing 27.4 acres, developers propose to maintain 25.8 acres of open space, including native habitat restoration, public walkways and access, and a 7-acre organic farm. The restaurant will source produce from the site’s organic garden.

The proposal also states that the event space has a 200-person capacity that will be used for community and hotel events. The hotel will be spread across cabins and bungalows.

Sixteen workforce housing units are proposed to provide housing for employees among others.

The public hearing and conceptual review of this project will be held at City Hall on Wednesday, March 30, at 5:30 p.m.

A new proposal for development on the Carpinteria Bluffs will be heard at a special meeting at City Hall on Monday. Developers will present a conceptual project for a hotel, restaurant and residential units at 5885 Carpinteria Ave., a 28-acre parcel where Tee Time golf driving range is currently located.

Good representation

LETTERS

We need City Council representatives that love our town and care about the community. We don’t need ones that do favors for friends and big corporations and look out for their own interests. It has been proven that these kinds of councilmembers don’t listen and don’t care what the community has to say.

We need new faces with new ideas that love our small town and care about us. Do we need another Pelosi or McConnell?

Let’s get rid of these people that voted in favor of the construction of the hotel. This is our chance. I voted for Natalia Alarcon but I’m disappointed in her because she said “yes” to the hotel by the beach.

Rosa Diaz Carpinteria

State the real reason

Why are a select few so afraid of Councilmember Lee and Mayor Nomura possibly being able to sit on City Council together again if District Map A-2 is selected? If A-2 is picked, both have to run and win at the end of their current terms to sit again. These select few are so concerned that Lee/Nomura will get re-elected – why? The level of concern makes me think they are certain Lee/Nomura will be the choice of “the people.” But isn’t that how a democracy works? Shouldn’t that be what all our current council wants, for “the people” to get to choose who they want most in o ce Hence, the district mapping process.

Some members of our council had an issue with Map A-2 (created by “the people” from 150+ public map submissions). Map A-3 wasn’t created by “the people”; it was Frankensteined by two members of City Council with one incomplete two-district map drawn by one member of the public. Interestingly, Map ID 117880 is identical to ID 79756, minus three districts. Surprisingly, the two districts on this map only represent the half of the city where Lee and Nomura reside, drawn with both in one district.

So, was ID 117880 actually drawn by this member of the public, or ghost-drawn by a councilmember?

“The citizens already made the map they want, and it’s A-2, with Lee in one district, and Nomura in another.”

–Jason Rodriguez

What is the underlying issue here? I urge this small group of commenters, including one or two current councilmembers, to state the reason why they don’t want Lee/Nomura in separate districts.

I am confused because Lee and Nomura are two of the most respectful, professional and honest politicians I have ever met – why would you not want both serving our city? The citizens already made the map they want, and its A-2, with Lee in one district, and Nomura in another.

Jason Rodriguez Carpinteria

Investment in our community

Special recognition is in order for the members of the Carpinteria City Council past and present who have voted a rmatively and directed City taff accordingly towards the creation of a skatepark for our community. Their actions demonstrate a tangible investment in the social, emotional and physical state of Carpinteria. The imminent construction of this park is just the beginning of the positive impact we will be seeing for generations to come. Thank you, Carpinteria!

I am writing to thank the City Council, staff, special committees, consultants and everyone else involved with not only making tools available to the public, but also educating the public with regards to the whole redistricting process.

The city has made this process very transparent for the past six months, but some who attended the March 14 meeting (those being late to the game) are now claiming foul just as the city approaches the ninth inning.

Although the state has mandated cities like Carpinteria to draw districts for future elections, this does not mean the Council as a whole isn’t still required to govern the community as a whole. It will be governed in the same way, with the whole community in mind and not just the district that endorsed them. The only difference will be in regards to who is eligible to run and who is eligible to vote for City Council members.

No… the city is not going to have any more power or any less power. No… your neighbors are not going to stop talking to you ust because they fall into a different district. No… the sky is not going to fall as a select subgroup wants you to believe.

Many in this subgroup who are speaking out against the most popular map (A-2) are speaking on behalf of districts they do not even live in, and they are inciting fear through propaganda that caters to their undisclosed personal agenda.

I encourage you to follow the logic and trust Map A-2 which was drafted by the people and chosen by the majority of the City Council, staff, legal counsel and the professional consultants who were hired to help guide us through this process.

Lorraine McIntire Carpinteria

Skate Park appreciation

We are thankful to the city of Carpinteria and the Carpinteria Skate Foundation members and community for rallying the past several years to build the skate park. The news of the city approving and accepting the recent bid from Lash Construction was a happy day for the community and everyone who has been dreaming of this park.

I want all those involved to know that us parents recognize the work and dedication that was put into this effort. e see

Speak up, Carpinteria

Please reach out to our U.S. Senators, U.S. Congress men and women, and President Biden and demand that the U.S. supply the brave men and women of the Ukraine with the missiles, anti-tank and armored vehicles, weapons, ammunition, food, medicine and shelter they need now to defend themselves.

A large majority of Americans support the Ukrainian individuals in defending their personal freedom, protecting innocent children and fighting for their independence as a nation.

If we don’t, we will have already lost World War III to evil and its allies that have no respect for individual freedom and humanity. There can and there only will be world peace through strength.

Case Van Wingerden Carpinteria

Admire Ukranian spirit

We should do all that we can to assist the Ukrainian people. I also hope that we can admire them for their courage in refusing to surrender their desire to have the freedoms they have developed in recent years. We have witnessed a true leader in Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a former actor and comedian, who has remained in Ukraine to lead the battle against forces of evil.

We live in the greatest country ever created. I often think we take too many of our freedoms for granted. We have the right to disagree with fellow citizens without being disagreeable. In recent years, we seem to have failed to fully appreciate this fact. We have our problems.

The U.S. never has been, and never will be, a perfect country. Our forefathers, imperfect as they were, provided us with the Constitution that has been the foundation of our democracy. We have thousands of people trying to get into our country.

Those unhappy here are free to leave.

I frequently express my thoughts and views in the free press. Some disagree with me. That’s great. That’s how it should be. I don’t think any of us fear being rounded up and thrown in jail by secret police.

Vladimir Putin greatly underestimated the spirit of the Ukrainian people who are simply ghting for what we have.

I hope we can learn a valuable lesson from these valiant people and not give up what we have here with internal con icts.

Let’s calmly express concerns and work for what we think should be created or accomplished. To repeat: let’s disagree without being disagreeable.

Don’t be afraid of estate planning

The ideal people to THE LADY serve in medical roles should know your & THE LAW values, be steadfast in stressful situations SARAH SANDERS Ed. Note: In this new quarterly column, and be readily available Sarah Sanders, associate attorney at Montecito Law Group with an office in Carpinteria, to make hard decisions.

HAPPY WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH

CVN

will be sharing her expertise and insight into estate planning with CVN readers.

Contrary to common perception, estate planning can be an approachable subject; it’s all in how you frame it! Here are 11 estate planning tips to inspire you to start, or continue, conversations with your loved ones that lead to taking action.

1. Assemble a team of professionals that can offer practical advice and champion your goals. nclude a nancial advisor, CPA and an estate planning attorney.

Make sure you would feel comfortable working with them in an emergency.

Family and friends are great sources for referrals.

2. Ensure that your loved ones know where they can find your important estate planning documents, financial documents, passwords, safe deposit box or safe, jewelry, life insurance policies, heirlooms, etc., to assist your family if someone needs to step into your shoes in an emergency. For a free Family Road Map to help you organize important details for your loved ones, visit montecitolawgroup.com.

3. Set yourself and your family up for success if you lose capacity, or in the event of your death, by creating an estate plan with an estate planning attorney. Most families bene t from a simple, revocable living trust in addition to important emergency documents such as a power of attorney and healthcare directive.

4. Discuss your wishes for medical care and end-of-life care with your loved ones. hat sort of life-saving measures would you want medical professionals to provide in an emergency situation if you are unable to speak on your own behalf?

Where do you draw the line?

5. hare your nal wishes with loved ones. Are you comfortable with organ donation? Do you prefer cremation or burial? Any special place you would like your ashes to be spread? . sk your attorney whether particular accounts should be titled in the name of your trust or name bene ciaries. or accounts that have transfer-on-death bene ciaries, designate a primary bene ciary and backup bene ciaries in case your rst choice is unavailable.

7. Creating an estate plan is an excellent start, but don’t become complacent with stale or outdated documents. eview your plan every three to ve years to

YES!

ensure the right people are still serving in each role and everything aligns with your current medical, nancial and familial circumstances.

8. signi cant change in circumstance should trigger a more immediate review of your estate planning documents with your attorney. This includes the birth of a child; a marriage or divorce; a death of a named agent or bene ciary a family member develops special needs; a falling out or souring of a relationship; receiving an inheritance; starting a business; or purchasing or selling real estate property.

As life evolves, your plan may need to evolve, too.

9. Set your plan up for success by carefully selecting the right people to ll various roles. The best people to serve in nancial positions should be trustworthy and responsible. The ideal people to serve in medical roles should know your values, be steadfast in stressful situations and be readily available to make hard decisions. Brainstorm good backups in case your rst choice is not available.

10. Have an attorney review the title on your real property deeds to ensure you are utilizing all available tax advantages.

Simple changes in title can save hundreds of thousands of dollars in capital gains taxes.

11. Celebrate! Treat yourself to a special meal at any of the wonderful restaurants in town or a self-indulgent spa day as a reward for making things simpler for your family. The grieving process does not need to be made more burdensome for your loved ones by causing them to go through probate, incur unnecessary expenses and delays, or otherwise leave them with confusion or con ict as they deal with your estate and distribute assets.

Sarah Sanders is an associate attorney at Montecito Law Group assisting families with estate planning, trust administration, and probate. She has a satellite office in Carpinteria to serve the local community. Sarah is excited to share the importance of estate planning in her quarterly CVN column.

Financial issues facing women business owners MONTECITO, CA 93108 (805) 293-6363

WWW.MONTECITOLAWGROUP.COM

As a business owner, you’re always busy, so it’s understandable if you’ve put off thinking about events that won’t occur until far in the future – such as your retirement, the sale or transfer of your business and the settling of your estate. Nonetheless, it’s a good idea to start planning now, while also recognizing the special challenges that women business owners face in these areas.

Essentially, you’ll have four key issues to consider: • BUILDING ASSETS – While you’re working, you’ll want to build as many financial assets as possible. This is especially important in case your career is interrupted by the need to provide care for children or parents. And there’s also the matter of longevity: On average, a 65-year-old woman can anticipate living about 20 more years – almost three years longer than a 65-year-old man, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Furthermore, the average age of widowhood is just 59, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Given these concerns, you’ll want to contribute as much as you can afford to a retirement account, such as an “owner-only” 401(k), a SEP-IRA or a SIMPLE IRA. A financial professional can help you choose an appropriate plan.

• PLANNING AN EXIT STRATEGY – How you transition from your business can affect your estate plans, in terms of the assets you leave behind and which family members are connected to your exit strategy. To illustrate: You could choose to pass your business to an adult child or other close relative, but if you have no family members willing to take on this responsibility, you could transfer ownership through an employee buyout, if you have employees, or you could sell the business outright to a third party. Whichever route you choose will need to be integrated into your overall retirement and estate plans.

In fact, two of every three caregivers in the United States are women, according to the CDC. Being a caregiver can incur emotional and financial costs. To help avoid entangling your finances with those of the family members to whom you’re providing care, you may want to consider creating a durable financial power of attorney, a legal document that gives you the authority to make financial decisions on behalf of someone who may be incapable of making them on their own. You’ll want to address the possible need for this document well before it needs to be activated.

• CREATING ESTATE-PLANNING DOCUMENTS – You will need to work with a legal professional to create estateplanning arrangements such as a will and a living trust, relevant business-planning documents, powers of attorney and health care directives. If your situation is complex enough, you also may need to bring in a trust company to manage the assets placed in a trust and oversee the eventual transfer of these assets to beneficiaries.

A lot goes into preparing for retirement, developing estate plans and keeping them current. So, start early and get the help you need from experienced professionals. The more thorough your planning, the more control you’ll have over your future.

Harbor seals hear exceptionally well in the water, with a range from 1 to 180 kHz, compared to humans at 1 to 20 kHz. On land and in the air, however, the seals’ range is comparable to humans at 1 to 22 kHz. Sealwatchers notice seals reacting to all the noises that one might expect could cause alarm.

Visitors

A group of high school students doing a multiday walk up the coast from mission to mission stopped by for a presentation on the seals. It’s a rare time when there are no visitors at the overlook.

Disturbances

The Goodyear blimp scared most of the seals into the ocean. Additional disturbances were caused by three tourists trespassing on Chevron property at the foot of the pier and a truck parked by the foot of the pier near the seals.

Girls Inc. opens public food pantry Recovered food from Albertsons can be picked up 24/7

Fresh fruits and vegetables, bread, pastries, canned goods, kitchen staples and a variety of frozen dinners can be found in the new Girls Inc. of Carpinteria Food Pantry at 5315 Foothill Road in Carpinteria. Stationed near the campus’s main entry, the pantry is stocked twice per week with leftovers from Albertsons – food that is between the “best by” and “sell by” dates – and all items, including refrigerated and frozen foods, are available to anyone 24-hours per day.

“We learned a lot about sustainable communities during the pandemic, and one lesson was how close so many local families are to food insecurity. One parent out of work or with reduced hours can be the difference between having enough food and going hungry,” said Jamie Collins, executive director of Girls Inc. of Carpinteria. “Girls Inc. is committed to providing extra nutrition and opportunities to acquire food so nobody in the community goes hungry.”

Food to supply the pantry is recovered at Alberstons on Mondays and Wednesdays each week. n the rst month of the program, all pantry food has been placed with individuals and families. All donations are monitored for safety, and Albertsons separates its items retrieved off the shelves every day to make sure food that is still fresh can be made available. There are no pre-requirements or screening for those interested in picking up food at Girls Inc. “The fresh rescue program is a big deal to us and a win for every store that can participate,” said Patricia Ramos, store

bank. Albertsons has been working with agencies in similar programs for years, and similar programs are being created across the state in response to California enate Bill 8 , which came into effect in 2022 and is designed to curtail food waste in numerous ways. Big food handlers like grocery stores will now have to take steps to rescue edible food from the waste stream and also divert compostables from land lls.

The new source of groceries has also made Girls Inc. better equipped to serve all of its families. “Through Covid we realized we can’t serve our girls without serving families and the community,” Collins said. “If our girls don’t have enough food at home, we need to support them, so they’re ready to meet their potential at school and at Girls Inc.” Snacks from the program are made available to girls in Girls Inc.’s afterschool program.

All parties noted the potential of the new program as a community service and hope to see it grow as awareness spreads.

They will gauge capacity and demand and continue to make sure the pantry is stocked for anyone in the community who needs it.

Founding parents of Carpinteria Valley Little League look back on 25 years of work

BY MOLLY MCCANCE

Smoky barbecue filled the air at El Carro Park on Saturday, March 5, when hundreds of people gathered at the Carpinteria alley baseball eld to celebrate the opening day of the city’s little league. Volunteers, players and parents jumped at the opportunity to begin the season, after two years lled with Covid-19 uncertainty.

But something else was special about this day – the delayed celebration of the 25th anniversary of Carpinteria Valley Little League (CVLL), which honored the hard work of several volunteers, families, players, coaches and umpires.

“Watching my kids, as well as the other kids develop from not being able to throw the ball to them entering high school, has been really rewarding,” said Ron Contreras, who has been with the league for over 20 years.

Leading into the late 1990s, the Boys & Girls Club ran the youth baseball program in Carpinteria, until several parents advocated for a charter with the Little League of America to formalize the program. The charter allowed for Little League uniforms, and other resources offered by the league.

Contreras coached his kids while the program was still under the Boys & Girls Club, and when he had grandchildren and they wanted to play, he came back to coach them.

“The longer you stick around, the more experience you get coaching, and it has been rewarding passing that on to the kids,” Contreras said.

Dave Crooks, Lori Bowles, Jeanie Cornet and Mike Damron are among Carpinteria Valley Little League’s founding parents; Crooks and Bowles are still on the Little League board today.

“The youth population was growing during those years, so it was time to have a dedicated baseball program not a liated with other sports, Crooks, who was deemed “the founding father” of the league by his colleagues, said.

The initial group of parents were people who wanted to do good in their community through this program, according to Bowles.

Bowles said “it takes a village” to do what they did, and that the league is 100% volunteer-based, promoting “good sportsmanship, and teach(ing) respect and manners.”

Cornet, a parent and coach during the beginning years of the league, also served as president and still speaks highly of the program.

“It was a very enjoyable time in our lives and I’m glad the community is keeping it going,” she said. Her husband, Danny Cornet, was one of the volunteers that received an award for his years of service to the league at CVLL’s March 5 opening, and her son, Bryan – who once played as a young boy – is

now on the board himself. n 7, in C LL s rst year of playing games around 250 kids participated.

The next year, that number skyrocketed to around 430. Although Crooks and Damron said the number of participants has declined in recent years, they both emphasized that the unwavering commitment from families continues to facilitate a great environment for the Little League players.

Damron and Cornet, whose sons played together starting in the rst years of the league from elementary until middle school, are now having grandkids of their own who they hope will also participate in Little League. “It gives the dads that opportunity to coach, umpire, that we had as parents,” Damron said.

Some parents and board members feel that one of the most important aspects of C LL is that it offers the kids something to do, and teaches them to get along with and be accountable to each other.

Crooks noted that the time and energy he and many members of the community have put into making this work, has all been worth it.

The pay-off is having well-rounded people in Carpinteria,” he said.

Boy Scouts rebuild Jelly Bowl staircase

PHOTOS BY ROBIN KARLSSON

Carpinteria Boy Scouts Ian Thomas and Evan Gregg organized a rebuild of the Jelly Bowl Beach staircase for their Eagle Scout project this month. Each scout took control of a different facet of the large project. Thomas led the charge for receiving approval from California State Parks along with replacing and refurbishing the stringers, brackets and steps. Gregg was responsible for replacing the landing and the bumpers at the top of the staircase.

Members of the scouts’ Troop 50 showed up to help on the project which has taken long days in the sun to accomplish, and still has some work to go which will be completed after the boys’ spring break.

Thomas was inspired to repair Jelly Bowl’s worn-out wooden steps which so many Carpinterians and State Park visitors use daily because he knew it would have a positive impact on the community.

“A lot of my friends go there to surf with friends, and I surf there too,” Thomas said. “I’d seen people slip on it because the steps were loose, or people got splinters from the wood. People were complaining a lot about the stairs, so I wanted to x the stairs and do something

The boy scouts team works on the landing with adult project leaders Andy Schaeffer and Eric Gregg.

to bene t Carpinteria.

Thomas secured permission to refurbish the entire staircase because of its age.

Given the magnitude of the project, Gregg joined the mission, taking responsibility for the upper part of the staircase and helping to guide the troop when Thomas had to miss a workday because of a death in the family. “He was a huge help,” said Thomas.

“It’s a huge project and would have cost too much and would have been too much work to do it alone. It’s still two eagle scout projects but it goes towards one product,” Thomas said.

Troop leaders ndy chaeffer, ichard Schwasnick, assistant scout master John Thomas, and volunteer Eric Gregg also provided guidance as needed.

Gregg and Thomas are fundraising for their eagle scout projects separately.

Thomas raised the $6,000 he needed for his part from donations he sought in the community, drawing in $2,000 from C rowers and , donations from The ood Liaison, rant Cox nterprises, ancho unta ista orda and otary Club orning.

Gregg continues to seek donations for his share of the costs.

Public Notices CARPINTERIA VALLEY WATER DISTRICT NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARINGS CONCERNING THE REDISTRICTING OF BOARD OF DIRECTORS ELECTORAL DISTRICTS California Elections Code § 22001 Notice is hereby given that the Carpinteria Valley Water District Board of Directors will consider redistricting boundaries of the five by-district divisions established in August 2020 with the adoption of Resolution 1083 as part of the California Voting Rights Act (CVRA) process and implementation of a division-based election system beginning with the November 2022 election.

As such, the boundaries of each of the five divisions was established prior to 2020 Census data availability. Due to the updated Census data, the previously adopted by-district map is no longer applicable and a new redistricting map will need to be considered, approved, and adopted by the Board.

The District will hold public hearings to receive public input concerning the redistricting map on the following dates: Wednesday, April 6, 2022 Wednesday, April 13, 2022 The meetings will be held at 5:30 pm at the CVWD Board Room, located at 1301 Santa Ynez Ave, Carpinteria CA, 93013 and by teleconference (Zoom Meeting).

Live and recorded broadcasts will be available to watch on the District Website at www.cvwd.net. Covid-19 restrictions may apply to in-person meeting attendance.

Check the Board Agenda, available on the District’s website, a week prior to the hearing date for details about the meeting.

Following the initial public hearing, draft maps of potential redistricted boundaries will be drafted and available on the District website for consideration and public input on the content of those maps at the April 13, 2022 public hearing.

Following the public hearing on April 13th, the Board of Directors may adopt an ordinance implementing the redistricted map.

All interested parties are invited to attend the public hearing(s) and express opinions or submit information. If you have any questions, residents are invited to call (805) 684-2816 x123 or send an email to CVRA@CVWD.net.

Como tal, los límites de cada una de las cinco divisiones se establecieron antes de que los datos del Censo del 2020 estuvieran disponibles. Debido a la actualización de los datos del censo, el mapa por distrito adoptado anteriormente ya no es aplicable y la Junta deberá considerar, aprobar y adoptar un nuevo mapa de redistribución de los distritos.

El Distrito tendrá audiencias públicas en las fechas siguientes para recibir los comentarios del público en cuanto al mapa de redistribución de distritos: Miércoles 6 de abril de 2022 Miércoles 13 de abril de 2022 Las reuniones tendrán lugar a las 5:30 PM en la Sala de Juntas de CVWD en 1301 Santa Ynez Ave, Carpinteria CA, 93013 y por teleconferencia (Reunión virtual vía Zoom).

Después de la audiencia pública del 13 de abril, la Junta Directiva puede adoptar una ordenanza que implemente el mapa redistribuido.

Clash of the Titans

UNPREDICTABLE WILDERNESS CHUCK GRAHAM They battled at the frothy shoreline, bouncing off each other like two mighty sumo wrestlers. They hacked at each other s necks, thick in pink, raw callouses.

The sound of it was an impactful thud to drive the other into submission, but neither was giving ground. The more dominant northern elephant seal bull was larger, taller, heavier, approximately all 5, pounds of him. owever, his challenger was putting him to the test. The younger, smaller bull was not backing down, holding its own on a cool, crisp ebruary morning.

Persistence

s their steamy breaths wafted skyward, the battle ventured into deeper water, the larger bull driving the girthy upstart into the surf. The young bull didn t give up though. e circled 5 yards northward and surfed back into the windswept beach near the iedras Blancas Lighthouse along the an imeon coastline. ith the larger bull preoccupied with taming its extensive harem, the younger challenger attempted to take advantage of females on the northern fringe of the beach. e immediately thrust himself upon a female in estrus. eemingly, the dominant bull had eyes in the back of his broad head. cooching with swiftly to the other end of his beach and harem. nd once again he sent the young bull scooching back into the surf. hile observing the drama unfold with girlfriend olly Lohuis, a marine biologist, we agreed that it was only a matter of time before this young bull claimed its own territory and accompanying harem. Before watching it battle with the powerful beachmaster, we noticed a gaping, crescent moon-shaped wound on its right ank. everal days later, sent a photo to wildlife biologist Tony Orr from the ational Oceanic tmospheric ssociation O , who studies these marine mammals on nearby an iguel sland, and asked him where he thought the wound came from.

That looks like a great white shark bite to me, said Orr, who has spent over 2 years researching pinnipeds at oint Bennett on an iguel. retty

of milk, they have enough fat to sustain themselves while remaining at the rookery. They are not strong enough to make the long, arduous migration northward to the Bering trait in laska, so they spend their rst year of life along the rugged coastline in an imeon. They ll spend that time storing up reserves, feeding in the local waters with the hopes of making that challenging ourney the following year.

Between the battling bulls, other displays of dominance took place, the male s pronounced proboscis sounding off with bellowing knocks as the behemoths reared upward, standing over -feet-tall.

Their oppy snouts are long and hollow, the bigger bulls possessing the more impressive proboscis, which swung back and forth as the bulls lunged forward across their precious territories.

Cycle of life

The chess match continued into the afternoon, the younger bull continuously wreaking havoc on the beachmaster s harem. mongst the battles, do ens of weaners - elephant seal pups s uawked for their mothers to nurse. ome of the pups had already been weaned and were forming their own groups, huddling together in the wind, and ipping sand onto their backs. arious gulls and turkey vultures scavenged over unfortunate pups who hadn’t survived, but nothing goes to waste at the rookery. here pups gath-

ered against weathered bluffs and otsams of tattered, gnarled giant bladder kelp and lkhorn kelp, shorebirds such as black turnstones and killdeer tiptoed amongst the weaners, foraging for food as the morning high tide surged within the rookery.

Once the weaners are nished nursing, their mothers leave the rookery, and the pups fend for themselves. ull

orthern elephant seals were once thought to be extinct due to commercial sealing, the thirst for oil extracted from their blubber being their demise. n the late 8 s, a small population was discovered surviving on a remote exican beach. rotections were set in place, and the population began to steadily increase in the early s. ue to such a low number of individuals being responsible to replenish the gene pool, concerns about inbreeding and diversity still weigh on the minds of biologists. es, would assume it s an issue as their genetic variability would be low, continued Orr. f something e.g. disease attacked them, would assume that their population would decrease signi cantly due to the bottleneck effect. espite that potential concern, today their robust populations continue to grow, evident on beaches surrounding iedras Blancas, an iguel sland, oint eyes ational eashore, no uevo tate ark, and uadalupe sland off exico. opulations of northern elephant seals all derived from those few individuals that survived in exico so many years ago.

Ukrainian borscht is characterized as a hearty brothy soup with a deep red purplish color derived from beets. For Lyhitchenko’s soup, Farm Cart Organics donated fresh beets and other staple vegetables such as carrots, potatoes and cabbage.

Borscht is typically a cold soup and “is most magical when served with a dollop of sour cream on top,” Beatriz Montalvo of The Food Liaison noted.

Carpinteria has put together a string of impressive wins on the volleyball court, and midway through the season the Warriors are already 8- 2, not counting tournament play, and an undefeated 3-0 in league.

In the last week, the Warriors picked up two more 3-0 sweeps over No rdhoff and Hueneme before making another strong showing and earning third place at the Bishop Diego Cardinal Classic Tournament on Saturday.

On the road against N ordhoff, the Warriors were able to play deep into their roster, allowing every player to get some in-game experience in a three-set sweep over the Rangers. Carpinteria rolled through Nordhoff winning the first set 25-19, the second 25- 14, and the third and final set - .

Diesel Slade led the team with 14 kills with no kill errors - three aces, and 15 digs in the win. ”Diesel is one of our most steady players in both the front row and the back row,” coach Mickey Caughey said.

Z ach Isaac played an excellent overall game, and the stat line to prove it: two kills one ace a block five picture perfect passes, and 20 digs. G avin Lohuis also proved to be a field general in the win with 32 assists.

Two days later, the Warriors hosted Hueneme for a St. Patrick’s day game.

Luck turned out to be on Carpinteria’s side as the arriors finished with yet another 3-0 sweep - the team’s sixth sweep of the year.

Carpinteria won each set handily: 25- 14, 25- 15 and 25- 15. “Best of all, we are still on course to achieve our goal of making the CIF Playoffs this year,” Caughey said Sebastian McCurry has been a force from the libero position all year, and finished the ueneme win with digs and two aces.

On Saturday, Carpinteria headed to Santa Barbara to compete in the Bishop Diego Classic Volleyball Tournament.

Warriors swept in two-game series with league foe Malibu

The Carpinteria Warriors and Malibu Sharks played a two-game home-and-away series, starting with arpinteria hosting the first matchup at J ohn Calderwood Field.

The game was back-and-forth for six innings with the arriors opening up the scoring with two runs in the first alibu responding with four runs in the third and arpinteria tying the game in the bottom of the sixth off a two-run single from Beto Martinez. alibu caught fire in the final two frames scoring eight runs in the sixth inning and four more in the seventh to put the game out of reach for a final score of - . t was such a good game before the wheels fell off in the sixth arpinteria coach at ooney said. Our offense was productive against a good pitcher and our pitching and defense were just good enough to keep us in the game. The breakdowns cost us as alibu was able to capitali e each time we gave them an opportunity.

The arriors were led on offense by rich oebel with three hits including a double a triple and a two-run home run in the seventh inning. Talon Trumble ach ata and artine ended up with two hits each while unter arcia scored three runs.

Two days later the arriors headed to alibu hungry for a chance to repay the loss. alibu snuffed arpinteria’s hopes early on with six runs in the first inning en route to a 9-3 win.

The arriors were able to come within four with two runs scored in the fifth inning and looked to score more with two runners on base but alibu responded by snagging two straight pop-ups to end the inning.

The first inning explosion was too much to overcome ooney said.

The win secured the season sweep for the alibu Sharks over arpinteria and the arriors are now on the wrong end of a three-game losing streak. ooney hopes that the losses will serve as lessons for the arriors going forward. f we can minimi e the damage caused by big innings we can compete with good teams down the stretch he said. arpinteria is now - - overall and - - in league play. The arriors will play two non-league spring break games next week as Santa ne and abrillo visit arpinteria on Thursday and riday respectively.
