Grocery workers ratify new contract with Ralphs, Albertsons

Southern and Central Californian grocery store workers approved a new threeyear contract with Ralphs and Albertsons/Vons/Pavilions, the UFCW 770 union announced last week.

The deal impacts over 47,000 supermarket employees across UFCW Locals 8GS, 135, 324, 770, 1167, 1428 and 1442, including in Santa Barbara. It involves $4.25 per hour wage increases over three years for most workers, and increases the hourly weekly minimum for some part-time employees to 28 hours. The plan also includes better dental and vision plans, according to the union, and establishes health and safety committees at every store.

“This new contract feels like we are finally taking a step in the right direction towards making grocery jobs a viable career option,” Kim Sisson, a supervisor for Vons in La Crescenta and a bargaining committee member, said in a release.

“This contract not only gives everyone more money but also begins to address wage inequalities in the stores and provides us a way to have a say and address new safety concerns as they arise at work, which has become so important over the last few years.”

UFCW Local 770 President John Grant called the new contract “the beginning of the information of the grocery industry.”

“Members stood up in solidarity not only on the shop floor and at rallies outside the stores but also at the bargaining table. Workers spoke up and the companies listened. This is transformational and the transformation will continue,” Grant said.

Masks no longer required on MTD, still highly recommended

Due to a court ruling on Monday, April 18, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) Jan. 29, 2021 order requiring masks on public transportation and at public transportation hubs is no longer in effect.

While not required, MTD still highly recommends wearing a mask while riding the bus, especially if unvaccinated. MTD employees are still subject to daily health screenings, and buses are cleaned and sanitized daily.

Genealogical Society to celebrate release of 1950 Census

The Santa Barbara County Genealogy Society (SBGen) will host a public open house and 1950s-themed costume event to celebrate the April 1 release of the 1950 Federal Census data.

This is a free event and will feature food and fun, including hot dogs, treats from the 50s, games, a photo display and memorabilia from the mid-century.

The bash will take place on Sunday, April 24, from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Sahyun Genealogical Library, 316 Castillo St. in Santa Barbara.

“The release of the 1950s census data is to genealogy what the appearance of a comet is to astronomers,” Kate Lima, VP of SBGen membership, said. “The U.S. Census is taken only every 10 years, and the information is kept under lock and key for privacy reasons for 72 years. The 1950 Census asked 20 general questions; additional questions were asked of six people on each sheet whose name fell on a highlighted line labeled ‘Sample.’ These additional questions provide genealogists valuable information about their family members, including income, occupation and military service.”

All are welcome to attend and vibe to the ‘50s. Learn more at SBGen.org.

State mandate for student Covid-19 vaccines pushed to 2023-24

The California Covid-19 student vaccine mandate implementation is now delayed until the 2023-2024 school year, the department of public health announced.

The mandate will not kick in until the Food and Drug Administration issues final appro al for a o idaccine for students older than 12, which it has not yet done.

“To ensure sufficient time for successful implementation of new vaccine requirements, California will not initiate the regulatory process for a COVID-19 vaccine requirement for the 2022-2023 school year and as such, any vaccine re uirements would not take effect until after full FDA approval and no sooner than July 1, 2023,” a statement from the department of public health read.

Once the mandate is implemented, all students must be vaccinated against Covid-19 in order to attend school, unless they apply for a personal belief exemption.

“CDPH strongly encourages all eligible Californians, including children,

to be vaccinated against COVID-19,” California Department of Public Health irector and tate ublic ealth cer Dr. Tomás J. Aragón said.

“We continue to ensure that our response to the COVID-19 pandemic is driven by the best science and data available. Under the Governor’s SMARTER plan, California is making informed decisions on how to further protect students and staff to keep children safely in classrooms.”

The arpinteria nified chool istrict sent out a message to parents on Friday reminding them of the vaccine mandate implementation timeline.

As of Monday, 68.4% of Santa Barbara County residents are fully vaccinated.

The case rate went up slightly from last report, at 7.83 cases per 100,000 residents, with a 2.1% test positivity rate.

Two new deaths were reported since the last report; one individual was older than 70 and lived in the city of Lompoc, and the other was between 50-69 and lived in Orcutt.

Santa Barbara County Health statistics as of April 11.

Aliso parent leaders, union urge reinstatement of elementary school counselor

BY EVELYN SPENCE

Parents from Aliso Elementary School and union leadership urged the Carpinteria school district board of trustees last Tuesday to reverse a decision not to re-hire an Aliso Elementary School counselor, citing his positive impact on the community.

Parents for Aliso (PFA) Co-President Monica Solorzano, PFA member Rebecca Champlin and Union President Jay Hotchner spoke during separate public comments at last Tuesday’s meeting about the decision not to rehire Aliso counselor Bert Dannenberg for the 20222023 school year.

Solorzano and Champlin read aloud a letter from the PFA, urging the board to reinstate Dannenberg.

Hotchner alleged Dannenberg was not rehired because he was part of a group complaint against then-Aliso Elementary School Principal Veronica Gallardo – who resigned last month – while Solorzano called the decision to not rehire Dannenberg, “upsetting and without discernable merit.”

“The non-renewal of Mr. Dannenberg was one of the final administrati e decisions made by Aliso’s former principal and in keeping with too many of her actions at Aliso, this was a stabilizing, negative decision that did not take into consideration the actual needs of the community,” Solorzano said.

“At no point in the past year were students, parents or families made aware of any concerns with Mr. Dannenberg’s performance as our school counselor,” she added, further praising Dannenberg’s conduct at Aliso Elementary.

“Mr. Dannenberg has been a consistent, positive source of sanctuary for students during a time of tremendous upheaval and uncertainty.”

– PFA Member Rebecca Champlin

Champlin called Dannenberg an “essential part of the efforts this year to reach out and support our most vulnerable students.”

“Mr. Dannenberg has been a consistent, positive source of sanctuary for students during a time of tremendous upheaval and uncertainty,” Champlin said, citing a few instances of when she said he “worked outside the box.”

The PFA letter was also signed by PFA parents Ruairi Bateson, Natalia Alarcon, Berlin Garcia, Peter Garcia, Ashley Hernandez, Julee Perea, Rebecca Champlin, Kevin Champlin, Regina Ruiz and Dulce Benitez.

Last week, Aliso Elementary School parent leaders and union leadership urged the board to reverse Dannenberg’s dismissal. issues with union leadership.

“The majority of (legal fees), if not all of that, is related to general personnel matters, complaints and investigations, union requests, unprofessional conduct, discipline,” Fitzgerald said. “Those are really driven by repetitive, and non-stop requests from union leadership, contesting management decisions, etc. That takes a lot of time.”

The district spent $809,809 in legal costs last year, and $421,038 this year – a sharp uptick from the fi e years ago.

“You can see a spike in (union) negotiations, and a lot of that is related to, we aren’t able to go to the table and be amicable, we have a lot of contempt… at the table, which requires us to have legal representation,” she added.

Fitzgerald also referenced the PERB case from November 2021, in which the Public Employee Relations Board found that the district had retaliated against Union President Hotchner. Fitzgerald said that legal case had cost $300,000 in legal fees.

Health Insurance Enrollment

In 2016, my boyfriend of three years, a Carpinteria local, proposed at the Carpinteria bluffs. t was a complete surprise.

Two of my closest friends were in on it actually e eryone was but they helped organi e it all. fter a -minute walk from our apartment to the bluffs, my friends stopped and looked below us. hen looked down saw a heart made of red rose petals and my handsome boyfriend looking more ner ous than had e er seen him. onestly can t remember what he said to me. was in shock and in tears and my heart o erflowed with lo e. m sure he said something along the lines of “ lo e you. ill you marry me d ask him but he can t remember either from how ner ous he was. fterward was surprised yet again when walked into sland rewery and the rest of my closest friends and family were ready to celebrate us. ack then we were a young couple in lo e with no idea what the future would hold. Today we are a slightly older couple still in lo e with no idea what the future holds but with a little more life e perience and knowledge under our belts. pril is our fi e-year wedding anni ersary and can hardly belie e it.

Five years may not seem long to those like my parents who ha e been married for years but we e been through a lot. e got married had a child sur i ed the fires li ed through a mudslide had another child, lived through a pandemic, and the list goes on and on. ll of these events and life, in general, put stress on a marriage. There ha e certainly been di cult days when we focus on ust making it through to nighttime when the kids go down and we can get some time for oursel es. e e found a few key things we can do to remember the lo e we ha e for each other and why we decided to get married and raise children together in the first place.

Communication Truly is Key

o you e er feel like you talk to your significant other e ery day yet somehow still feel like you ha en t spoken to them at all do. t feels that way because we usually discuss who will take our oldest to karate what time either one of us will be home, or if the next dentist appointment has been scheduled for the boys. t s so important for us to find time to actually talk to one another. e e found that we can carve out time during the day to sit and talk together. ometimes it s coffee other times it s lunch but we make time where we can speak about how we are feeling and what we look forward to. leave feeling so much more connected to my husband after moments like that.

Keep the Spark Alive

long with our coffee and lunch mini dates we make sure to ha e date night.

We line up a babysitter or a grandparent and we go out to do something fun that reminds us of things we lo e and the lo e we ha e for each other. few months ago took my husband to a urf ilm esti al. e got dressed up met up with friends and en oyed the time together without the kids. t doesn t ha e to be e pensi e either. ur last day date was yoga on the grass by the beach. fter we had coffee and caught up. ther times it s been a hike or a run together. ecently we decided to each come up with a date and surprise the other.

Marriage takes work and if you add kids to the mi and life s responsibilities it makes things e ery harder but there are actions you can take to keep mo ing forward as a couple. e t month the arpinteria hildren s ro ect will be hosting a series of couples classes in partnership with amily er ice gency oin us to learn more tips to support your marriage while being the best parents you can be. all us for more information . e like to think of this as date night on us!

Carpinteria Head Start searches for new home Low-income serving program must be out of current location by June 30

BY EVELYN SPENCE Carpinteria’s Head Start program – a daycare and education program for low-income and disabled families in the area – is searching for a new home.

The program, which currently serves 66 children between three months old and five years old, must move out of its current location at the Carpinteria Children’s Project by June 30 because the arpinteria nified chool istrict is e panding its own transitional kindergarten (TK) program, following state guidelines, according to ead tart rogram irector Lorraine Neenan. “(We serve) families who work in the field in the restaurants and more . These are all hard-working people, and we provide full, (free) daycare and have for many years,” Neenan told CVN. “These programs are for low-income families, or those who qualify in other ways, such as (having) a child with a disability or a foster child.”

The district owns the four classrooms the Head Start program has operated out of for the past nine years. ith staff members, the Head Start program is open from a.m. to p.m. and offers free breakfast, snack and lunch. Funded by a combination of state and federal funds, it provides families with family service advocates and hosts a family wellness program for families who ha e suffered through trauma or a crisis. uperintendent iana igby confirmed to the district is e panding its TK program to include all preschool children who turn 5-years-old after Sept. thus the need for the four rooms. igby also said that the rooms the Head Start program currently operate out of need to be painted.

Neenan said the Head Start program has found two classrooms to operate out of at the United Boys & Girls Club, Carpinteria after June 30 but said it must cut 37 children from the program in its move due to a lack of space. “ e were notified less than a year ago that our lease would not be renewed and that (the district) was going to use their classrooms for their own children (…)

arpinteria’s ead Start program must be out of its current location by une 30 the District notified the program last year that it was ending the lease. t s not that easy to find other facilities Neenan said. “The Carpinteria site is a recognized demonstration site for the outdoor classroom project – it’s very high-quality childcare for an important population.”

She stressed the program is still looking for a larger accommodation space – to serve all of the 66 children – and asked that locals reach out to her at (805) 964e tension if they know of an available space. She added that some of the children currently in the program will be eligible for the district’s TK program, but said she is unsure about where other children might go.

“We hadn’t really announced it to the families until now because I didn’t want them to worry. was hoping to find enough space for all of the kids. If there is somewhere in the community, I would be really happy.”

FLY BY F R A N D AV I S

Land steward Andrea Adams orden captured this photograph of blue eyed grass blooming at the arpinteria Salt arsh in honor of alifornia ild ower eek. Sisyrinchium bellum is a member of the ris family, Adams orden said. The humash name is rog’s g string.’ This a wonderful plant for the home garden. t naturali es in the garden needing little or no water after the first year.

I wake up every day to new confusion about the state of the world and my existence in it. The ever-changing coronavirus, the insane war in Ukraine, the freakish weather. What I need is a deep breath of petrichor – the delicious scent that lingers after a rain. Our rainless winter pretty much deprived us of that pleasure.

The word petrichor is from the Greek, meaning stone and another word referring to the ethereal fluid that is the blood of the Gods. I guess we humans have been in love with that particular smell for a very long time.

Just the sound of the word ethereal suggests something almost unreachable – the regions beyond earth, the ether. But it also means unworldly, spiritual. We could all use a bit more of that in our lives.

Seeking a bit of spiritual uplift, I went north for a visit to the elephant seals near San Simeon. Huge and cumbersome, they clump on the beach like big gray slugs.

Not the pictured vision of spirituality. But watching them at rest brought its own sense of peace. Observing those amazing creatures immersed in their own natural cycles, living the life carved out for them for millennia, was calming. It was a step away from busyness and worry.

World traveler Pico Iyer talks about the grace and liberation of travel. He says it reminds travelers they are not the center of the world. Watching the elephant seals –two-ton big daddies barking at intruding males, smaller mamas nursing their pups nurslings flinging sand shifted my center to a better place. Heart and mind slowed. I focused on wind, the smell of salt, the sea’s advance and retreat, the creatures resting on the beach and our long earth partnership as fellow mammals.

I just got my second booster, hoping for further protection against whatever Covid-19 variant is on the loose. News updates are confusing. Maybe because this virus is changeable, vigorous and wily, morphing into new variants at

the drop of a hat – or a mask. Now the XE subvariant is roaming through the population. ou need a scientific mind to follow the explanations of the virus spread. A recent LATimes article informed me that “XE is a child of BA.1 and BA.2 that came together and had a recombinant event.” Evidently viruses go through recombinations all the time, so we can expect more variants of the disease to spring up as long as there are hosts to carry them.

I read a long, complicated (for me) article about how this particular virus mutates to create a new virus that can elude our vaccines. There are already 400 mutations in the amino acids that vaccines target. There is a potential for nearly 2000 other ways the targeted amino acids could mutate and still be able to attach to human cells. So yikes!

It appears this virus has the capacity to hang around for a long time, requiring ever new and updated vaccines. Like the seasonal flu shots that come out each year.

All I can say is thank our lucky stars for the scientists and epidemiologists who are onto this thing.

Even as spring does its green unfold, and the scent of honeysuckle and orange blossoms perfume the air, you have to dig deep to find the old optimism of rebirth.

Spirits are dampened by constant doses of bad news – the economy, the entrenched virus and horrifying images of destruction and death in Ukraine.

Still, every day brings a chance to ease the burden and make things better.

Talking with friends is a good start. I close with a quote from my friend Annie.

One Good Thing: “In the face of all of this, our mantra should be do no harm, contribute where you can, and celebrate when there’s cause to rejoice.”

Workability students visit Uncle Chen Restaurant

Carpinteria Middle School’s workability program checked out Uncle Chen Restaurant for their latest adventure, where they sampled the restaurant’s scrumptious food, including chow mein, fried cheese wontons and dipped fortune cookies.

“Tina (Lee) from Uncle Chen gave the students a tour and taught them about all the different obs they ha e to offer.

She answered all their questions, showed them how chow mein is made,” CMS Workability teacher Kelli Flores said.

Flores said the kids are now excited to learn how to make wontons by themselves, which they will later do as part of a class project.

“A big thank you to Tina for being so generous and patient with our students!”

Flores added.

The Weekly Crossword

Introducing the new Boys Club

This September 1973 Carpinteria Herald photo shows Tom Cundith of the Lions Club of Carpinteria handing a $100 check to Rich Medel, director of the Carpinteria Boys Club.

The sign to notify the community of the new construction includes a mis-spelling of Medel s first name as well as the incorrect address.

Ground broke for a new Carpinteria Boys Club site on Foothill Road on Aug. 1, 1973 after a grant from Santa Barbara Foundation provided the funding to move the club out of an Aliso School classroom and into its own facility. Newly hired director ich Medel worked out of a real estate o ce in downtown Carpinteria while the foundation was poured and the building took shape. ooking back on his first year as director, Medel said that activities for kids during construction included camping trips out of town and sports on local fields.

In August of 1974, the game room was complete, and kids were provided with a new, safe environment to shoot pool and hang out after school. Safeway was being remodeled concurrently and donated lights to the new club. In 1978 the gym was added thanks to a huge community fundraising effort that secured and impro ements ha e continued since then. The club now boasts a day care facility, an arts and crafts center, a resource center and a teen center.

Much has changed for the Boys and Girls Club of Carpinteria, including the name, but fundraising needs remain. This year’s annual auction fundraiser will take place on Saturday, - - .

May .

Carpinteria swim cruises to two league wins

The Warriors sailed to two more dual meet wins, sweeping N ordhoff and Santa Paula this week. Against N orsdhoff, the boys won 98- 72 and the girls won 9 out of 11 events for a 102-49 victory.

Senior Piper Clayton and junior Erin Otsuki each won both of their individual events, and were half of the winning team of the 200 medley relay and 400 free relay.

Other individual winners included freshman G iulia Piccoletti , junior Taylor Classen and junior Malaya Morente.

For the boys, seniors Matthew Lamberti and Augie Sheaffer claimed double wins, while sophomore Asher Smith and junior J acob Taff each took home a win.

“The Warriors continue to improve on speed and endurance there are only two weeks remaining in their regular season,” Carpinteria coach J on Otsuki said.

Against Santa aula the arriors boys won - while the girls finished on top 126- 43. arpinteria will compete in two more league meets this week finishing at home against alibu for the season finale.

Carpinteria faced off with N ordhoff for a home-and-away series, with each team bringing home one league win.

The series started at J ohn Calderwood Field, with N ordhoff jumping out to a 1-0 lead off a solo home run by transfer shortstop Ben Fabbian. The score remained the same until the fifth inning when arpinteria’s rich oebel homered over the fence to open the scoring for the Warriors. Hunter G arcia reached base on a single, and was later brought in by a Talon Trumble sacrifice fly. ssac lores drove in the third run of the inning with a sneaker up the middle that scored Matt Muñ oz from third base.

The Warriors eventually sealed the game with a 6 -1 victory, with Sophomore righthander Shane G oodmanson earning the complete game win on seven strikeouts, two walks and four hits.

“Shane set the tone and tempo for the day,” coach Pat Cooney said. “We had some bad luck early but it never rattled him. He just kept doing his job and his patience paid off.”

When Carpinteria headed to Ojai to face N ordhoff for the second game of the week, the Warriors were able to build a 3-2 lead after two innings, but the Rangers exploded for six runs in the fourth on the way to a 9-4 win.

“Subtract the great big inning and we have a close ball game,” Cooney said. “We have a small margin for error and need things to go our way in all aspects. It simply did not work out in our favor today.”

Warriors boys volleyball sweeps on senior night

Carpinteria boys volleyball has a knack for securing wins with three-set sweeps this year; out of the team’s 10 regular-season victories, nine have come by way of 3-0 sweeps, including a big senior night win at home against No rdhoff.

The N ordhoff win came with a dominant performance, with set scores of 25- 17, 25-15 and 25- 18. With the win over the Rangers, Carpinteria moved to 10-3 overall and 4-1 in Citrus Coast League play. The Warriors success on the court has earned them the top spot in the CIF Division 5 rankings, a position Carpinteria has held steady for three straight weeks.

G avin Lohuis continues to be a court general, with seven aces, a block and a teamleading 37 assists.

“G avin was distributing nice hittable sets to all of our hitters in the front row, back row and more recently he is setting more combinations plays,” coach Mickey Caughey said.

Diesel Slade and J oaquin G onzalez both earned double-doubles, with both getting more than ten kills and digs; libero Sebastian McCurry once again led the team with 24 digs.

With the win, Carpinteria secured a spot in the CIF Division 5 Playoffs, and will play one more league game against ueneme before finding out their first-round matchup.

Carpinteria also earned an invite to the prestigious Karch Kiraly Tournament of Champions tournament at Santa Barbara High School over the weekend, playing against traditional powerhouses from divisions and . arpinteria lost its first matchup against lovis ast on riday but recovered for a confidence-building win over Santa Barbara’s second team and ualified for the consolation championship on Saturday.

The Warriors lost to Mira Costa’s second team in the Saturday game, but will carry their momentum into a final week of league play before heading to the playoffs.
