Local Marybeth Carty is running for re-election on a seat on the Santa Barbara County Board of Education, she announced this week. She has served on the board since 2013; her seat, trustee area one, covers parts of Montecito and Santa Barbara, and the entirety of Carpinteria and Summerland.“Tosaytimes have changed in the interim is an understatement. It appears the education arena has sparked the attention of the radical side of politics. There are folks, many of whom reside in Santa Barbara County, who are seeking to instill in schools an agenda that threatens to undermine the stronghold of democracy that is public education. Unfortunately, I am joining school board candidates across the country who are being contested by such an agenda,” she“Thisadded.campaign is further galvanizing my belief in the power of public education, my support and advocacy for children and teachers and my dedication to the pursuit of critical thinking, fairness, empathy, and compassion. We need it now more than ever.”

The election will be held Nov. 8.

The free Covid-19 rapid tests program through the federal government will shut down Sept. 2, due to a lack of funding. “Ordering through this program will be suspended on Friday, September 2 because Congress hasn’t provided additional funding to replenish the nation’s stockpile of tests,” a notice on the covid.gov website reads. Every household in the U.S. is eligible for three rounds of free, at-home tests. Eight tests are provided per household order. Order the free tests through the U.S. Postal Service at covidtest.gov. Call (800) 232-0233 for help with ordering.

The Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a robbery and kidnapping that reportedly occurred Aug. 23 on the 4900 block of Carpinteria Avenue, according to Raquel Zick, public information officer. A victim told officers they had been forced into a vehicle around 2:30 p.m. by two unknown suspects who displayed their weapons. The two suspects then drove the victim to the bank, where they “forced the victim to withdraw cash.”

Four members of the City Council are totally missing the point of the Measure T2022. The supporters of the YES campaign are not against a downtown hotel; we are against using a public parking lot for private development.

City of Carpinteria Mayor Wade Nomura stated at the August 16, 2021 Special City Council meeting: “I am definitely not opposed to the Initiative and I hope this goes forward. Our jobs will be a lot easier hearing the voice of the community in the entirety.

The Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network has cared for over 3,000 animals so far since 2022 began, the network announced last week. To date, 3,071 have been taken care of, with 174 still in the network’s care. Patients include a western gull that was rescued from the Ventura Harbor with fishing gear injuries and a pied-billed grebe with a laceration on its neck that was found on Butterfly Beach in Montecito. The gull had its legs trapped by fishing line, and had swallowed a hook. Network staff were able to remove the hook. The grebe had its wound sutured, and is now receiving antibiotics and anti-inflammatory meds. The network is located at 1460 N Fairview Ave., Goleta, and can be reached at (805) 681-1080.

The Santa Barbara County Public Health Department issued an excessive heat warning for the county, beginning 11 a.m. Wednesday through Monday, Sept. 5. “The Public Health Department is urging residents to take the necessary safety measures to avoid heat-related illnesses, including heat exhaustion and heat stroke,” the department said in a release. The department recommends wearing loose-fitting, lightweight and light-colored clothing; avoid caffeinated, alcoholic and sugary drinks, and drink water and other fluids; and limit outdoor activity. If a person becomes dizzy, nauseated or sweats heavily, they may be showing signs of heat exhaustion and should move to a cooler area. Residents should also keep an eye out for heat stroke symptoms, which include a lack of sweating and dry skin. Children and pets should not be left alone in vehicles.

The Carpinteria median home selling value has increased compared to a year ago, according to numbers released by the Santa Barbara South Coast Chamber of Commerce on Tuesday. The chamber’s July 2022 numbers showed the median home selling value in Carpinteria was $1,636,775, compared to $1,245,625 last year at the same time and $1,042,500 two years ago. Goleta saw a decrease in the median home selling value, with $1,392,700 compared to $1,439,250 last year, while Santa Barbara saw an increase, with $2,087,500 this year and $1,660,000 last year. The south coast as a whole saw an increase in its median home selling value, at $1,895,000 this year compared to $1,639,000 last year. Carpinteria has seen 48 single family homes sold to date in 2022, compared to 46 last year and 41 two years ago. The median apartment rent on the south coast was $2,293, up from $2,054 last year, with a vacancy rate of 1.9%. No new residential building permits in Carpinteria were issued to date, compared to 11 last year and four two years ago. Carpinteria’s oﬃce vacancy rates also rose, to 12.6%, while its industrial vacancy rates decreased, at 2.4%. Carpinteria’s unemployment rate decreased slightly to 2.2%, from 2.9% last year, while the south coast as a whole also saw a decreased unemployment rate, at 2.1%. The median household income in Carpinteria rose to $88,195, up from $86,944 a year ago. The poverty rate in Carpinteria was a reported 7.5%.

The Rebuttal Argument in Favor of Measure T2022, signed by four city council members (CVN Vol. 28, No. 48) contends that the overall Measure is “misleading,” when, in fact, it is the council’s statements that are intended to mislead and spread disinformation. To wit: Statement 1. The assertion that if Measure T2022 is approved, it would make General Plan Changes that “could” lead to the replacement of the Garden by multi-family housing. This is false. Measure T2022 does not alter the Garden’s existing General Plan land use of Open Space Recreation (OSR) with a zoning designation of Recreation (REC). Statement 2. The assertion that Measure T2022 does not prevent development of Parking Lot 3; but, instead allows for development with high density, multi-family residential development. Again false. Parking Lot 3 is currently zoned Commercial Property Development (CPD). Measure T changes this to Open Space Recreation (OSR) land use with zoning designation of Recreation (REC).

Per the City Staff 9212 Report (12/13/21), under state law, the density allowable for residential housing follows the underlying density consistent with the local open-space plan. The City’s REC Zone district for the above two parcels would only allow caretaker dwellings. Any additional residential development is not appropriate or permitted (page 11/ paragraph 3). The City Council’s Rebuttal will be published in every city voters’ 2022 Ballot Pamphlet. The councilmembers’ statements regarding the above two parcels are not factual. Their statements can only be viewed as politically motivated. With the intent to spread disinformation if Measure T2022 is passed to stop private development on our Beach & Downtown Parking lot.

The whole idea is money. “The plans ‘would ideally’ include a local event space for art & music features.” We already have an ideal local event space, our Lynda Fairly Carpinteria Arts Center. “The Inn ‘will’ generate $500,000 for the city.” A total guesstimate. Whereas citizen-approved Measure X took in $3.5 million dollars in sales tax for Carpinteria in 2020-2021.Youabsolutely cannot guarantee tourists will take the train (Californians love their cars) and be willing to pay to sleep practically on the RR tracks, with guaranteed window-rattling whistle blasts multiple times each day and night. And where will this Monopoly money be spent? Not on teacher salaries, not on schools. Why don’t the enthusiastic city employees explain where each and every penny of this assumed income will go before November’s vote? “Not an ‘outdated’ train station look, but a clean & coastal look.” Who isn’t charmed by the original ticket station building in the Community Garden? Built in a designated Tsunami Hazard Zone, will its height incorporate guaranteed sea level rise? “… ‘could’ affect future parking and construction.” Yes on Measure T2022 exists purely to prevent construction on our Parking Lot #3 and the adjacent open space. We are a small, enchanted beach town that needs to vote to Keep Carp Classic. The kind of people who love Classic Carp prefer a little sand in their hot dog, waking up with the scent of campfire smoke in their hair and waving to the dolphins while sipping coffee in the cool, coastal morning fog.

No on solar tax

AlisonCarpinteriaJohnson Yes on T; trust your instincts

In case anyone was not aware of this, the utility companies are lobbying the California Public Utility Commission (CPUC) to create a Solar Tax for households that have solar panels. This actually impacts everyone, and not just people who have panels (I personally do not have solar panels.) This does not make any sense to me. From my research it will be a Solar Tax between $300 and $600 a year. It would be based on the amount of solar energy you make and consume. The more solar energy you make, the higher the tax. This includes apartment buildings, new homes built with solar, and solar-powered batteries. It just seems like the utility companies are trying to disincentivize the rooftop solar business because people are becoming more energy independent and they don’t want that. If California rooftop solar grows, we can also help protect open space instead of converting open space into utility-scale solar farms. If you all have taken a drive out in the desert in the past 10 years, you have seen the endless “sea” of utility-scale solar farms. These utility solar farms will only grow bigger if we let them tax our rooftop panels!

Hoorah! A boutique hotel on Linden! What a good idea. Steps from the train station, small, historic, and so Carpinteria. The Palms; restored. Yay! Why is it so hard for “some people” to believe that clear thinking, rational, truly local Carpinterians would not want a sprawling cookie cutter hotel on their parking lot? I applaud Ms. Gascoigne (Vol. 28, No. 49, “Keep Carp, Carp”) for straightforward comments. I am with the Yay Sayers. Yes to our status as “the last small beach town in California”, Yes to safety of “our” impacted neighborhood and Yes to the inherent right of the people to vote for their future. Yes, on Measure T2022. Trust your instincts. CatherineCarpinteriaOverman

Several projects at Canalino Elementary School and Carpinteria High School were approved as part of Measure U, the $90 million obligation bond passed in 2014 to address facility, technology, and infrastructure needs in the district. Many of the approvals were for the Phase Four modernization of Canalino, which includes the removal of asbestos containing materials, and lead based materials, and components on areas to be removed. The majority of facilities in the district are at least 50 years old, and this measure was passed to allocate a large sum of funds to upkeep or replace the aging facilities.

“No On T” committee members also include Lorraine McIntire, Sandra Moreno, Carla Stein and Kyle Zuvella. The PAC can be found at protectcarp.com.

The Carpinteria Unified School Board held its first meeting of the school year last Tuesday, reflecting on enrollment and approving an array of programs for the 2022-23 school year. Enrollment in the district is projected to be 53 students fewer than the previous year, according to Superintendent Diana Rigby’s report, with Summerland and Canalino elementary schools the only school sites to have more students than previous years.

Dear Carpinterians: the shortening days, the arrival of spectacular sunsets and the announcement of our Avocado Festival are reminders that fall is approaching. This is one of my favorite seasons in Carpinteria. This fall, as with every fall, I will be hoping for early rains and forecasts for a wet winter. We need it badly.Inarecent presentation by Bob McDonald, general manager of the Carpinteria Valley Water District, our city council received some staggering statistics related to drought and long-term water availability.Thewater district has wisely diversified its sources over the years, securing water from Lake Cachuma, our local groundwater basin, and the State Water Project, and is working with the city and Carpinteria Sanitary District to implement a recycled water project using injection wells to replenish our aquifers. Nonetheless, another few years without suffi cient rainfall to fi ll our lakes and replenish our groundwater supplies will lead to a severe drought and subsequent equally severe restrictions.

Several locals have formed a “No On T” political action committee (PAC) dedicated to ﬁghting the Measure T initiative on the November 2022 ballot, the PAC announced Tuesday. The PAC is led by Jason Rodriguez, co-owner of The Food Liaison and member of the city of Carpinteria Architectural ReviewMeasureBoard.T – placed on the ballot largely by opponents of the controversial Surfliner Inn project – looks to redesignate two parcels of land in Carpinteria, a parking lot and an empty lot, to stop the inn from being built. “The more we looked at Measure T and the disingenuous messaging around it, the more we knew we had to act,” Rodriguez said in a press release. “This measure would upend the local decision-making process, so we will make sure every voter has the opportunity to fully understand the unmitigated disaster Measure T represents.”

What can be done now? Everyone reading this can help. When small steps to conserve water are multiplied across hundreds of households, they translate to large savings. Here are a few really easy tips for saving water: turn off the water when you brush your teeth; shorten your showers; water your landscape early in the morning or late at night; and adjust your sprinklers to prevent overspray and runoff. CVWD has many water conservation resources and rebate programs. Visit tomore.customer-type/residential/cvwd.net/water-conservation/tolearnTheendofsummeralsopromptsmethinkofourlocalbusinesses.Nowthat many schools are back in session, we’re seeing fewer visitors downtown, which means fewer sales for our merchants and restaurants. Please remember how important it is to direct your spending locally where the business owners are our friends and neighbors and are major donors to our local nonprofits. Remember, buying local is an investment in our community.Carpinteria has an outstanding group of nonprofits that support our less fortunate citizens. Fall will bring many important fundraisers in our community. Treat yourself to a ticket, a seat at a dinner or even a sponsorship. Our hard-working organizations play a critical role in the lives of community members in need. These events are fun, exciting, a great time to visit with others, and the proceeds are often more than expected thanks to your generosity. I am proud to be a Carpinterian, as we truly care for ourStayown.well and stay safe.

“Carpinteria’s General Plan is the very reason we enjoy the last best beach community in California,” Rodriguez said. “We can’t aﬀord to gut the General Plan and eliminate the oversight and careful stewardship of our City, particularly when it comes to ensuring a vital downtown business district and protecting open space. No on Measure T is all about preserving our community by using existing tools that have proven capable and eﬀective in keeping Carpinteria small, safe and, quite frankly, the envy of the world.”

The board approved 18 personnel assignments, primarily teachers and substitute instructors. Aside from Faust, there was one other retirement in the district: an instructional assistant from Canalino Elementary School.

Let’s say you live in a Carpinteria neighborhood where even the weekend evenings are quiet and restful. Then one Friday afternoon, a row of big trucks stop on your street, and workers offload and set up a dance floor, lights and a sound system right in the middle of the street. As you stand astounded looking out your living room window, you see the strobe lights turn on and hear the first sound check. Actually, since it has so much deep bass sound, you feel the thumping in your chest more than you hear it. Once it gets dark, a dozen people arrive and what ensues can best be described as Spring Break… or maybe Carpinteria Gone Wild. The noise continues past midnight, keeping you and the entire neighborhood awake. You wonder why nobody does anything to stop it. Then you realize city officials, and even the police, would never know about this event if nobody tellsThisthem.is an absurd example, yet has much in common with what often happens when a residential unit is converted to an occasional or permanent short-term rental (STR). In many communities, neighbor complaints about STRs are common concerning noise, parking, trash, crime and neighborhood peace. Unfortunately, some short-term renters have, well, short-timer’s attitude: “I’ll be gone in a couple days, so I don’t care what the neighbors think.” Here in Carpinteria, the city tackled this issue back in 2017 and instituted the STR Ordinance, which requires all STRs to have a license from the city. Additionally, it limits the areas of the city where STRs are allowed and gave STRs in other areas a five-year amortization period before they could no longer operate. That amortization period ended two months ago on June 30, and now STRs are allowed in the city only in the beach neighborhood south of the train tracks. Any STR must have a license from the city, and there are a limited number of licenses. So the STR Ordinance prevents any issues for the rest of the city, right? (Spoiler alert: No, not even close.)

He was the husband of Irene Reveles Munro. They shared 30 years of marriage together, ﬁrst meeting at Carpinteria High School and eventually becoming high school sweethearts, then reuniting many years later to become husband and wife. Born in Oakland, CA, Tom was the son of Charles and Sally Munro. He enlisted in the navy after high school and served four years. He went on to attend college and graduated from Chico State UniMIKE

A simple search on Airbnb or Vrbo shows many STRs available in the city outside of the allowed area. A recent communication with the city about this resulted in the response that the city has contracted with an outside company related to the STR Ordinance, and that company is “in the process of sending out letters to the properties” that are advertised as available as STRs in blatant violation of the STR Ordinance. Meanwhile community impacts continue, and some STR owners continue to reap the (illegal) financial benefits at the expense of our neighborhoods. A remarkable piece of data from the staff report on STRs for the Sept. 13, 2021 Carpinteria City Council meeting was that 78% of Carpinteria STR owners at that time did not live in Santa Barbara County, with many from out-of-state. That means that over three-quarters of Carpinteria STRs reduced local housing stock as out-ofcounty owners rent our local property to out-of-townMeanwhile,tourists!eachSTR reduces housing availability for residents and directly contributes to our local housing crisis. So, what can you do? The city needs your help to enforce the STR Ordinance. City staff cannot monitor every neighborhood. If any neighbor (STR or not) is playing loud music late at night, if you are comfortable doing so, a knock on the door and polite request to dial it down is often quite effective. Or it is perfectly appropriate to call the Sheriff about the nuisance.Ifaresidence outside the beach area, but inside city limit (which is where no STRs are allowed) seems to be an STR, neighborhood impacts or not, it would be a good idea to contact the city’s Code Compliance Supervisor (contact info on carpinteriaca.gov under “city directory”). In the beach area an STR, licensed or not, does not have any more “rights” than any other neighbor. If they are too loud at night or causing a trash problem, then contacting the city is the right move. We have regulations and protections for the benefit of the entire community, including addressing our housing crisis by maximizing the number of housing units available for long-term housing. If these protections are ignored or simply not enforced, we all suffer. We need to encourage the city to protect long-term housing by enforcing the protections that are in place, and we need to assist them in this enforcement when needed.

Carpinteria Community Library recommends... “Maybe You Should Talk To Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed” by Lori Gottlieb I am an eclectic reader and I have found, through these years (!) of the pandemic, that my reading tastes shift ed and are now shifting again. I am on a literature kick at the moment, but during the pandemic, I read quite a bit of non-fiction. One of my favorites was Lori Gottlieb’s book “Maybe You Should Talk to Someone: A Therapist, Her Therapist, and Our Lives Revealed.” The book was so good, I went on to listen to her podcast which is called Dear Therapists, which she co-produces with Guy Winch. But, back to the book. Got tlieb shares the big questions her patients come to her with, grappling with death, misery, frustration, hopelessness, de spair, and other human conditions. What sets this book apart from other books about therapy, however, is Gottlieb’s vulnerability in sharing her process with her own therapy. She, herself, experiences a crisis which sends her to therapy as a patient. We are all just human, after all, including those giving us advice. “Maybe You Should Talk to Some one” is both personal and universal in ways which served to make me feel like we are all in this together. We do have the power to transform our lives and our relationships.Iunderstand this book is being adapt ed for television, with Eva Longoria set to portray Lori Gottlieb. It is available at the Carpinteria Community Library in print, large print, eBook, and for your Kindle.

“Devotions” by Mary Oliver Light poetry can often be devoured like a good burger with a soda… quickly. But fine poetry needs to be ingested and savored like fine wine with fine food. Mary Oliver, a long time personal favorite author of mine, uses magic fairy dust in her ink to pen her lines. She possesses a deep understanding of our inner selves. Oliver also describes flora and fauna so that we see, hear and smell what she does.

This slim volume contains pages of magic with words of wonder, passion, gratitude and plain pleasure. No wonder it is a #1 best seller in nature poetry! The poems that resonated with me the most are “Storage” and “Night Herons”. Bad day? Oliver’s poems can chase the blues away. Megan Shannon, Friends of the Li brary volunteer CVN Reads…

Students at The Howard School began their first day of school this week, shortly after their Carpinteria Unified peers. From singing “America the Beautiful” during morning assembly to finger painting on the fence, the PreK-8 students clambered back onto the school’s Carpinteria campus, learning about their new teachers and catching up with old friends.

Howard students go back to school

“The Howard school is proud to be Santa Barbara’s oldest continually operating independent school, serving both Santa Barbara and Ventura Counties. Our goal is to promote growth of the whole child including emotional and physical development coupled with the pursuit of academic excellence,” the school told CVN. Headmaster Reed greets students as they walk through the gate.

CVN Getting Back on the Wellness Train: 5 Tips for Success

Decide to do it and follow through. If it’s harder than you intended, fight for it.

Workouts: whether you want to start a workout program or increase your current regimen, make sure it’s some thing you like, otherwise you won’t stick with it. Workouts can be anything

LEAHWELLNESSHARDINGWARRIOR

The vacations are done, kids are back at school, and days are getting shorter again. It’s time to leave your summer behind and get back in the groove of fall fitness and health. I’ve had many people ask me recently how they can get back on the “wellness wagon.”Before you do anything, you must make a decision to do it. It’s that simple. If you let yourself have “just one more” splurge here or there, or wait until La bor Day or once school has been back a few weeks or whatever other excuse you have, you’ll keep pushing out the timeline to get started. Decide to do it and follow through. If it’s harder than you intended, fight for it. It might be hard, but that’s sort of the point. You’re changing from your sum mer behavior to your fall behavior. So, it’s a bit less, “Lunch Margaritas,” and a bit more “Noon Workout.” Change can be hard. Once you’ve made the decision to get yourself in gear again, decide what needs to be done. Do you need to over haul your eating habits? Start working out again or more frequently? Cut back on alcohol? Reduce your caffeine intake? Perhaps it’s all of these things. That can be daunting. Make it easier on yourself by starting small and break ing each item into smaller tasks. Here are the other things I would put at the top of your “to do” list: Food quality: this tops my list for what to change to get the biggest bang for your buck. When I think of summer, it’s BBQs with friends, dinners out and happy hours on a sunny patio. Often times, there’s chips and sauces and fried foodsI’vegalore.spoken before on how to eat (well), (CVN Vol. 28 No. 46) by slowly making changes to your diet. Choosing more veggies, fruits, whole grains and lean meats/seafood are where you should start. If you can’t add all of them, start with more lean meats and seafood.

Alcohol: if you want to cut back on alcohol (which I hear a lot of this time of year), don’t go cold turkey. Rarely will that work out the way you think. Instead, imbibe when you want, but try limiting yourself to a certain amount of drinks before you pour or order your first one, so you’re more likely to stick with your decision. Once you’ve hit your predetermined limit, switch to a soda water and lime if need be, or just plain water. As you start to reduce your intake, keep trimming how many drinks you have per day until you get to the reduced level you decide.

Water: speaking of drinks, upping your daily water intake can bring about a lot of health benefits, including clear ing up your skin, reduced bloating and helping to keep your digestive system working smoothly. If you haven’t been focusing on wa ter, focusing on this easy addition can improve your wellness without much effort. Any and all of the actions listed above will be a boon to your health. However, for the sake of prioritization, I’ve listed them in the order of the benefit you’ll receive.Some of these may not even ring true for you and you may have five other things you’d like to work on, like stress management, time management or orga nization (and yes, these all contribute to overall wellness). Whichever you choose to start with, make sure it’s something that’s attainable versus being the most difficult. Give yourself the win and start small to build confidence and momentum. Don’t be hard on yourself if it takes a couple weeks to get in the groove of it either; you’ve just had months of summer to let it all fall away. With per sistence and diligence, you will notice your efforts. Go easy, forgive yourself for little slipups and be persistent. Leah Harding is a nutrition coach and mobile personal trainer. She specializes in helping people see food as an ally to reach their goals, both in and out of the gym. She previously worked out of Rincon Fitness and owned CrossFit Carpinteria/Foxwing Fitness. Contact her at leah@foxwingfitness. com with questions or with ideas for future wellness articles.

Sleep: another topic I’ve touched on before. Late nights are natural when the sun stays out longer. However, it’s likely that you’re finding yourself under slept and exhausted from all the summertime fun and activities. If you haven’t already, start shifting your bedtime back by five minutes each night. It doesn’t seem like much, but after a week you’ll be going to bed 35 minutes earlier, which can mean the difference between one coffee or two. If you are having an afternoon slump, avoid caffeine or a nap and use that lack of energy as a motivation to get to bed earlier.

SURFER Magazine and Rincon Point BY VINCE BURNS As a premier surf spot, Rincon Point graced the pages of the sport’s “bible” many times over SURFER’s sixty-year history until its final issue in 2020. From Kemp Aaberg’s iconic soul arch in a 1962 article, to the exploits of resident geniuses like Yater and Greenough, to Don Balch’s 1981 article on the Point’s then-current crew of characters, the mag azine reported on key moments in Rincon surf history. So it’s no surprise that Rincon is well represented in “SURFER Mag azine: 1960-2020” by Grant Ellis (New York: Rizzoli, 304 pages, $55), which was published in July. At first blush, the book – which is indis putably gorgeous and delivers beautiful photos dripping with color, sand, and wave – is standard “coffee table” surf an thology fare, long on familiar photos but light or deficient in context, insight or cul tural meaning. But that’s not fair: in true SURFER tradition, the old photographs carry the day but a neat “extra” is the inclusion of new one-page pieces by the magazine’s surviving editor corps. These can be excellent, like Matt Warshaw’s honest assessment on his own time at the magazine: it “was in middling-poor shape when I arrived and middling-good shape six years later” when he left in 1991. Warshaw’s piece also draws attention to the irony of SURFER’s last headline. The cover of the final issue featured a gorgeous photograph of a massive pad dle-out in Encinitas with a cryptic “we’re in this together.” Warshaw noted in this piece “there is no getting around the fact that when SURFER stopped publishing, we were suddenly and probably forever less together.” What Warshaw means, of course, that in our current world of online wave forecasts, web cams, contest results, blogs and surf-themed social media, there is no longer a single shared source or “bible” for the pastime. (Warshaw himself uses his online Encyclopedia of Surfing – eos. surf – to preserve the history of surfing, something he thinks the sport hasn’t necessarily been good at.)

While older surfers will continue to mourn the passing of SURFER, this new anthology does a nice job of easing the pain. It’s definitely the next best thing to a stack of old magazines from the 1960s!

THROWBACK THURSDAY

SURFER, August/September 1975: George Greenough and pinball machine. Photo by Steve Bissell.

20  Thursday, September 1, 2022 Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California

All photographs here are from the Rizzoli book. Vince Burns, with Stephen Bates, will publish a photographic history of Rin con Point this October. It is available for pre-order: youages-America-Vincent/dp/1467108707amazon.com/Rincon-Point-Im.IfhavestoriesorphotosaboutRincon’s surfing history, get in touch with Vince at vinceburns805@gmail.com

SURFER’s passing means there will never be another Rincon Point centerfold like Steve Bissell’s in 1973, that thousands of like-minded kids could collectively tack up on their bedroom walls. The magazine’s most important contribution was an authoritative voice that managed to unite a diverse community around a set of values that were part of surfing culture from the beginning. Although some will quibble with the term, SURFER was indeed the “bible” of the sport, all the more so because surfing wasn’t just a sport. The magazine didn’t just track the sport’s stars and hot spots – it creat ed and nurtured the values and culture embodied in wave riding. Every surfer over a certain age can talk about the thrill of first discovering the magazine, the exhilaration of learn ing about exotic surf destinations, the excitement of reading about the exploits of surfing’s stars, and the anticipation of the next issue. Don Balch puts it well: “I’ve read SURFER since ‘64 and was first published in it in ‘75. It was always a big thrill to have my words and photos used. It made you legit in the surfing world. I do miss it, of course. Who doesn’t miss holding a tangible account of our beautiful and exciting sport and lifestyle? It definitely had class.” Even though the book’s “best of” for mat required photographs making the final cut to be “hits,” some of the era’s (and SURFER’s own) zaniness creeps in. For example, Steve Bissell explains the story behind his 1975 photograph (on page 104) of George Greenough playing pinball with his eyes glowing supernaturally. The skinny: Bissell and a SURFER writer were at Greenough’s Montecito house for a photo shoot and interview. When asked for an explanation of how he was able to respond so quick ly on his kneeboard to changing wave conditions, Greenough answered that he had a secret: an old pinball machine in his garage which kept his reflexes and coordination sharp. This led to a classic Bissell fisheye shot of Greenough in front of his “Spanish Eyes” pinball machine with some handy puka shells inserted into his eyeballs for extra Greenough weirdness. The result is very 1970s for sure, but, as Bissell explains, there’s a lot going on here: the entire point of the interview was to lay out Greenough’s influence on the bur geoning shortboard revolution, much of which evolved from his kneeboard-rid ing pyrotechnics, which influenced the shortboard’s whole new way of surfing. You and I may not see the connection here to a pinball game, but Greenough and Bissell understood. And SURFER published it.

SURFER, Spring 1962: Rincon article with Kemp Aaberg arch.

Bottom right: SURFER, Summer 1961: cover photo of Renny Yater.

Valley Memorial Sta dium was alive with Warrior pride as the community showed up to support the team and the hundreds of MiniCheerleaders who joined the high school squad for a special performance – inspired by Disney’s “Encanto” – at halftime. The festivities began with a moment of silence in tribute to fallen Carpinteria graduates who have served in the U.S. military. As soon as the game kicked off, War riors started aggressively, with an onside squib kick on the opening kickoff that bounced off a Morro Bay player’s hel met and was recovered by Carpinteria’s Troy Zimmerman. Though the big play ignited the home crowd, the turnover did not yield any points for Carpinteria’s first offensive drive. Morro Bay answered on its first drive with a 54-yard pass from senior quar terback Nicky Johnson to Nathan Pech that set up the Pirates, first touchdown pass of the night to take a 7-0 lead over theTheWarriors.Pirates offense found success again in the first quarter after Johnson scrambled for a nine-yard touchdown and threw another 18-yard score to Caleb Calhoun to head into halftime up 21-0. Johnson would finish the game with 340 passing yards, four touchdown passes and one rushing touchdown, as Morro Bay jumped to a 41-0 lead through methodical pass-heavy drives down the field.But Carpinteria played hard until the end, driving deep into Pirates’ territory and finding paydirt for the first score of the year by way of a thrilling 25-yard run from senior Matthew Munoz, who weaved from left to right, evading Morro Bay defenders and breaking several tack les on the way to the end zone. The Warriors finished the game with 157 total yards – 74 through the air and 83 on the ground – but Morro Bay would take the victory with a final score of 41-7. Morro Bay will take its 1-1 record to Santa Ynez for a “battle of the Pirates” next week, while Carpinteria will head to Oxnard to face the Channel Islands Raiders, who are 0-1 after losing to Santa Paula 26-20.

The Warriors took the field for their first home game of the 2022 season on Friday, hosting the visiting Morro Bay Pirates for a matchup, with both teams looking for their first victory of the year. Morro Bay entered Friday night com ing off a 35-18 loss against San Marcos, while Carpinteria was looking to end a 13-game losing streak after being shut out 25-0 against Calvary Chapel the previousCarpinteriaweek.

In one of the more meaningful tributes, the committee posthumously honored Matt Sanchez with a moment of silence. Sanchez was well-known in the community for guiding at-risk youth through the challenges of gang life.

triumphsTeenager in triathlon

Carpinteria High School junior Ruby Cluderay placed second in the women’s under-19 division last weekend in the Santa Barbara Multi Sport Triathlon, bringing her one step closer to competing in the USA age group nationals. Ruby is a multi-sport athlete for the Warriors, competing in cross country, track and field, basketball, volleyball and swim ming. She stays busy training in sprints, middle-and-long distance running, biking, rock climbing and weightlifting, while also par ticipating in the Masters program at the Carpinteria pool. She had no trouble waking up at 5:30 a.m. on Sunday to compete in the triathlon – which included a 500-yard ocean swim, two-mile run and Ruby’s favorite event: the six-mile bike ride.

The Chargers shutdown sophomore Aiden Alcaraz and the 2021 CIF champion Warriors in the first game of the season. Ruby Cluderay celebrates a strong second place showing at the Santa Barbara Multi Sport Triathlon.

The event was hosted by Mississippi State head coach Ben Howland, who started his own basketball career as a player at Santa Barbara City College in the late 70s before going on to coach at several top-tier Division 1 schools. In 2007 and 2008, he took UCLA to the NCAA Final Four in back-to-back seasons before leaving in 2013.

Carpinteria hosted water-polo powerhouse Dos Pueblos in what was the first test of the year for the defending CIF-SS Division 5 champion Warriors and the debut for new Chargers head coach Chris Parrish. Dos Pueblos stifled the Warriors, doing a solid job of containing the usually highpowered Carpinteria offense, including returning star Asher Smith, who was the team’s leading scorer and 2021 Division 5 Player of the Year during last season’s championship run. After three periods, Dos Pueblos held on to an 8-0 lead. Each team scored two goals in the final quarter, and Dos Pueblos took the game with a final score of 10-2. The Warriors will have two chances for redemption this week, with games against Righetti and Rio Mesa.
