Mask-making brigade

Spearheaded by 80-year-old Pat Beals, a group of neighbors on Arbol Verde Street have launched a grassroots mask-making brigade that has produced over 3,000 cloth masks since late February. Calling themselves the Neighbor to Neighbor group, just over a dozen people have made enough masks for retail, food and medical workers in Carpinteria, and have now set their sights on getting a protective mask on every adult in the valley.

City launches Covid-19 online resource hub Providing residents with online access to local government programs and services is one of the city of Carpinteria’s ongoing priorities. Recently, the Covid-19 pandemic has amplified the need for residents to connect with important resources. To best serve the community, the city has completely updated their website at carpinteria.ca.us and created an auxiliary site at carpinteriahub.com that is dedicated to assisting residents through the pandemic and recovery. “We’re excited to introduce the public to our new city website,” said City Manager Dave Durﬂinger. “Designed with users in mind, it’s easy to navigate and has a fresh and contemporary look. It offers residents, businesses and visitors access to the city’s wide range of services, programs, public meetings, local information and contacts.” The new website is mobile responsive and greatly improves the user experience by automatically responding to various screen sizes. It also includes special features for ADA accessibility, a multi-language translation tool (Spanish, French, Italian and German), and utilizes the latest technology and strategies for maximizing search engine performance and searchability. Within Carpinteria’s Covid-19 Community Hub, vast amounts of pandemic information and resources have been distilled into content relevant to the Carpinteria community. Updates are posted regularly, and there are links to carefully vetted resources. The page was designed to answer the wide range of questions that arise for Carpinterians, and it includes resources from a number of community non-proﬁts and agencies

working to keep locals safe and healthy. Additionally, the Covid-19 Community Hub provides a space for local businesses to reach supporters during this challenging time. The “Support Local Businesses” page gives stores and restaurants an opportunity to create their own listings to identify hours, special services and any other updates. “We understand that high-quality, accurate information is paramount in this challenging time,” said Carpinteria Mayor Wade Nomura. “This new site will help connect people to the resources they need. We also hope that it draws attention

to the creative adaptations made by shops and restaurants. I implore Carpinterians to step up to safely support these local businesses.”

To create a listing, businesses can enter their information at carpinteriahub.com/ submit-listing.

CUSD schools closed for remainder of school year Distance learning to continue

Carpinteria school campuses will remain closed for the rest of the school year—announced Carpinteria Unified School District Superintendent Diana Rigby on Wednesday, April 1. Rigby’s statement followed California Governor Gavin Newsom’s announcement earlier in the day that California educators should operate “with the expectation now that schools will not reopen” for the remainder of the academic year. While school sites are closed, distance learning will continue. “Our staff, teachers and administrators are working hard to plan and deliver high-quality distance

learning,” said Rigby, “to work on connectivity and technology needs that address equity and access for all students.” This week, students were given computers and workbooks to study remotely. Hotspots will be distributed to students who need internet access as soon they are available. Despite schools being closed, CUSD will continue to provide sack lunches Monday to Friday from noon to 1 p.m. at Aliso and Canalino schools and Monte Vista Park. All children under the age of 18 are welcome to pick up a sack lunch. —Debra Herrick

MTD has suspended Carpinteria’s Seaside Shuttle until further notice.

Seaside Shuttle suspended, Line 20 still in service

In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, Santa Barbara MTD has lowered service levels across the county. In Carpinteria, the Seaside Shuttle has been removed from service until further notice. The reduction is due to reduced ridership and MTD workforce constraints. Carpinteria’s Line 20 to and from Santa Barbara remains in service.

City: short-term rentals only for essential workers

Beginning this week, the city of Carpinteria has restricted short-term lodging only to people who are working in industries identiﬁed as essential. Owners and operators of short-term vacation rentals and hotels/motels have been notiﬁed by the city that they can

only rent to guest users who are permitted to travel under Governor Newsom’s stay at home order, according to a statement on Facebook the city posted on April 3. The restriction is intended to slow the spread of COVID-19.

“Great job, Team Carpinteria!” Don Hall of United Boys & Girls Clubs, Carpinteria exclaimed. Yes! I want everyone to know how well coordinated the leaders of organizations in Carpinteria are right now. This strong team is built on years of relationships. And, in a weird way, the experience of working together during the fires and mudslides helped prepare us for this too. The level of coordination among the city, nonprofits, the school district and businesses is darn impressive. I am truly honored and proud to be a part of Team Carpinteria during this pandemic emergency. How well we take care of our most vulnerable neighbors is a measure of community strength and resilience. To support those who are older and medically fragile because they are more at risk, it is perfectly clear that we should be staying home as much as possible, physically distancing and wearing masks when we need to be in public. The community is also ready to help those who have lost income and are now struggling. The Carpinteria Children’s Project’s tagline is “Nurturing successful children, healthy families and strong community” and it is guiding us now. We’ve always known that organizations working together strengthens the community. For CCP, leading some of that work has always been a part of what we do. Until three weeks ago, our daily work has also been to serve young children in our classrooms. In supporting children, we also support parents, both English and Spanish-speaking, with parenting classes, available income supports, and connections to family counseling and therapy. We’re shifting to meet these needs now: Our 15 staff members in early childhood education are embracing new roles and developing new programs; all 24 of us are quickly learning Zoom and Google Drive; and we are knowledgeable about new resources that respond to the pandemic. All this is to say, we are here to help you and your neighbors, whether or not we have met you before. We have opened a virtual call center and invite calls or emails from every Carpinterian who has a need or would like support managing in these challenging times. We can assist with signing up

If you are over 65 or have a medical condition and need help with groceries or picking up medications, call us and we will make sure someone helps you so you can stay safely at home. If you are lonely, frustrated or struggling with parenting in these difficult times and would like someone to talk to for a little while every week, please call us. If you would like to talk with a counselor or mental health provider, call us. The number is (805) 203-6648. You will be prompted to leave a message and we will call you back as soon as we can. The number we will call back from will probably appear on your phone as a blocked caller—please know that could be one of us calling from our personal cell phones. If you don’t answer, we’ll leave a message. We will do our best to answer your questions, and if we don’t have an answer immediately, we will do some research and get back to you. We invite all members of the Carpinteria community who need help or have a question to call (805) 203-6648. If you prefer, you can email care@carpchildren.org. We are all in this together, and we need each other. Team Carpinteria—and that’s all of us—is here, rising to the challenge of these very difficult times. If you are interested in volunteering to pick up and deliver groceries or whatever is needed to allow those most vulnerable to shelter at home, please email volunteer@carpchildren.org.

Dozens of health care workers infected with Covid-19 County crests 200 cases including first two deaths By DeBra Herrick Thirty-seven health care workers in Santa Barbara County have tested positive for Covid-19, according to the county’s Public Health Department. The number of cases across the county continues to grow, with 26 new cases confirmed on April 7, bringing the total to 218 cases at time of press. Of the 218 cases, 120 people are recovering at home and 42 are recovering in a hospital (19 in an Intensive Care Unit). Fifty-one patients have fully recovered, and three are pending an update. Two deaths have been reported. The first patient to succumb to Covid-19 was a man in his 60s with underlying health conditions residing in North County. He died at Marian Medical Center. The county’s second novel coronavirus death was a South County resident in their 60s with underlying conditions who died while receiving treatment in a hospital. On announcing the first Covid-19 fatality, Santa Barbara County Health Officer Dr. Henning Ansorg said, “We extend our deepest condolences to the loved ones of this patient. While we have expected more cases, this death is an unfortunate milestone in our efforts to fight this disease, and one that we never wanted to see.” After the second death, Ansorg again offered condolences and urged the community to adhere to public health orders to slow the spread of the virus. “We continue to ask for the support of every resident as we

move forward and get through this difficult time. Only with the help of every person in our community will we make a difference in slowing the spread of this virus,” said Ansorg. The virus has been contracted across all age groups, including five cases in children under 17. The gender breakdown is 83 female, 134 male and one unknown. The South County communities of Montecito, Summerland and Carpinteria have 14 confirmed cases. The largest clusters are currently in Santa Maria (59), Lompoc (55) and Santa Barbara (33). By age range, the groups reporting the most cases are 50- to 69-year-olds (91) and 30- to 49-year-olds (72). “If you are healthy and not at higher risk, please connect with friends and loved ones who would be considered more vulnerable, and offer support,” said Do-Reynoso. Public Health is prioritizing investigations for cases with exposures in healthcare and other congregate settings to identify persons who may have been exposed. Mandated social distancing measures are in place to slow the spread of the virus. Public Health reported that 1,514 tests have been administered, including 1,294 negative results and two inconclusive. While most cases of Covid-19 exhibit mild or moderate symptoms, the county’s growing case numbers and first deaths from Covid-19 underscore the urgent need

County updates “stay well at home” order By DeBra Herrick

On Sunday, April 5, an updated public health order went into effect in Santa Barbara County. The new “stay well at home” order, issued by Santa Barbara County Health Offer Dr. Henning Ansorg, tightens and clarifies the stipulations laid out in California Governor Gavin Newsom’s March 19 executive order for all residents to stay in their residences except for essential needs and activities. The county’s order, which is intended to reduce the exposure and spread of Covid-19, will be in effect until May 4, 2020, unless extended. New restrictions include mandatory face masks for food workers and the closure of all campgrounds and RV parks. Find a full list of the restrictions below. In a separate public health order, the county mandated that all individuals have their temperatures taken before entering certain licensed facilities and other agencies including hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, long term care facilities and home health agencies among others. Residents and business operators who violate or fail to comply with the order may receive misdemeanor citations, along with fines up to $1,000, imprisonment or both. Violators are also subject to civil enforcement actions including fines or civil penalties per violation per day, injunctive relief, and attorneys’ fees and costs.

Santa Barbara County Public Health Executive Order

• Food facilities must offer food to go only and comply with hygiene and social distancing standards or be subject to permit suspension and mandatory closure. • Food facilities, restaurants, bars, nightclubs and coffee shops may only remain open to offer food for pick-up, delivery or drive-through. • All food must be in containers. • Food must be consumed off-site.

Individuals who exhibit symptoms consistent with Covid-19 as defined by the Santa Barbara County Health Officer shall be immediately excluded from the facility. The following businesses are ordered to close without exception: • Bars and nightclubs that do not serve food; • Movie theaters, live performance venues, bowling alleys and arcades; • Gyms, fitness centers and aquatic centers; • Wineries, breweries and tap rooms that provide tastings; • Trophy shops or trophy businesses; • Tattoo parlors, tattoo businesses, tattoo artists and body art facilities; • Barbers, hair salons and hairstylists; • Campgrounds and RV parks, public and private.

California expands unemployment insurance Self-employed, part-time and gig workers eligible

cVN rePOrT The novel coronavirus pandemic has caused an historic surge of 10 million unemployment claims across the country in just the last two weeks. In response, last week, the federal government signed a $2 trillion coronavirus stimulus response legislation, the CARE Act, including new unemployment benefits for selfemployed, part-time and gig workers who in the past haven’t been eligible for such benefits. “These workers were made eligible because the economic damage caused by the coronavirus isn’t discriminating between different types of workers and so neither should federal benefits,” said California Senator Dianne Feinstein. Non-traditional workers comprise one quarter of all workers in California. The state has two million residents who are self-employed and 3.4 million who work a part-time job. Additionally, California has a robust gig economy with millions of independent contractors who work through online platforms such as Uber and Lyft. “I encourage all Californians who have lost their jobs because of the pandemic to apply for unemployment benefits if needed. Even if you weren’t eligible in the past, you may be now,” said Feinstein. To help residents determine if they qualify and how to apply, the National Democratic Committee provides the following frequently asked questions.

How do I file for unemployment insurance?

Californians can apply for unemployment benefits through the California Employment Development Department (EDD). The best way to begin the process is by visiting edd.ca.gov. Claims can be filed online Sunday, 5 a.m. to 8:30 p.m., Monday 4 a.m. to 10 p.m., Tuesday through Friday 2 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Saturday 2 a.m. to 8 p.m.

How much can I get from unemployment insurance?

The exact amount you can receive depends on your previous earnings. It will be between $40 and $450 per week. Additionally, between now and July 31, $600 will be added to every unemployment compensation check. So, no one eligible will receive less than $600 per week.

Expanded eligibility for unemployment insurance will be in effect until Dec. 31, 2020. A $600 additional benefit will be added to unemployment compensation received for weeks between when the bill is enacted and July 31, 2020. What if I’m not eligible for traditional unemployment insurance?

The CARES Act temporarily expands unemployment insurance to cover individuals who are not traditionally covered, including the self-employed, gig workers, independent contractors and workers with irregular work histories. It also expands the list of allowable criteria for claiming unemployment compensation to include many reasons related to the Covid-19 public health emergency.

What if I’ve been out of work because of Covid-19 for several weeks already?

If you exhaust the weeks of unemployment compensation available to you through your state’s laws, you will be eligible for an additional 13 weeks of benefits. These benefits will be federally funded, but you will still receive them through your state.

How long will the expanded benefits be in place?

Everbody counts

Caroline Alarcon talks U.S. Census Caroline Alarcon is working hard for the city of Carpinteria to inform and educate residents on the U.S. Census. To help get the word out, Alarcon recently completed a Q & A with CVN to help residents understand what the Census is and why it is important that everyone participates.

for counties and cities. The Census determines how many people live in the area and how funds are given. The Census count also helps to determine the number of seats each state will have in the House of Representatives and is used to draw congressional and state legislative districts.

Talk about the U.S. Census. What is it?

Is it possible to do it online?

This will be the 24th time that the U.S. Census has occurred. It was first established in 1790 and was written into the constitution which mandates that the country conduct a count of its population every 10 years. This is done by the U.S. Census Bureau.

CIAL CCOLI

Why is it important that everyone completes the census?

These numbers help determine federal P SUEYfunding for hospitals, fire departments, CKEN schools and various other programs that CKEN are used by our community. An example CKEN is how emergency funding is determined

Absolutely, this will be the first time it will be offered online. It can be done on a computer, laptop, tablet, iPad or cell phone as long as there is internet access. There are 10 basic questions that take less then 10 minutes to complete. You can access it now at my2020census.gov. People will start receiving mail with information as to how to do it online, with paper or over the phone as well.

Is it possible to do it in Spanish?

Yes, the Census is offered in Spanish in addition to 11 other languages: Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Russian, Arabic, Tagalog, Polish, French, Haitian Creole,

Portuguese and Japanese. There are also 59 non-English languages to help people fill out the English paper questionnaire.

Should people be worried about doing the Census if they are undocumented?

No. What everyone should know is that this information is legally protected and confidential. No identifying information is shared with anyone outside of the Census Bureau. What everyone should also know is to avoid scams, you will not be asked your citizenship status, your CELEBRATING 50 socialYEARS security number, bank account number, on political party or OF CARPINTERIA information & asked for any type of money or donations.

THE AVOFEST, COME BY & CHECK If I want to help, what can I OUT OUR SPECIALS do?

It is really important to get the word out. Every one counts and every person makes a difference. Tell your neighbors, friends and family how important it is that they get counted. There are a number of ways to get help if someone cannot access the questionnaire online or if they have questions about how to do it. They can reach out to the Census Bureau (although they are getting a lot of calls, they are still available).

How has the Census been impacted by Covid-19?

As of right now the Census has pushed back its end date of collecting the information to July 31. Events that were meant to inform and provide opportunities for people to complete it are currently postponed. We will come up with ways to continue offering information and answering questions in the meantime.

Anything you’d like to add?

The response rate for Carpinteria is currently at 46 percent. This can be viewed at the 2020census.gov c a r p i site n t e under r i a， c a l i f o response rate.

The city has posted signage on Carpinteria’s main streets to remind residents of the social distancing and stay at home orders.

City doubles down: no gatherings allowed

As warmer weather and Easter approach, the city of Carpinteria is making an increased effort to remind residents that staying at home and social distancing remain critical. Distancing measures are crucial to slow the spread of Covid-19 and to avoid overwhelming our healthcare system. Many California municipalities have closed outdoor spaces such as parks, trails and beaches due to reports of group gatherings and failure to follow social distancing orders. This has resulted in increased demand on Carpinteria’s open spaces. The city of Carpinteria has taken additional measures to discourage public gatherings and congestion in public spaces. Public parking lots that serve the Bluffs Preserve and Franklin Trail are closed, and beach and picnic area parking lots will be closed on Easter weekend. New signage also has been posted in key areas to convey the urgency of the message. Carpinterians have abundant access to nature and open space. During the Covid-19 pandemic, these spaces offer important opportunities for individuals and families to enjoy mental and physical health benefits; however, the city warns that for these areas to remain open, users must follow social distancing orders. “The city wishes residents a happy Easter and emphasizes the need to make it a safe Easter for the sake of the whole community,” stated a news release from the city on April 8.

no others ever expressed (“I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by Me”) and must be considered. Then we will understand the hope and meaning of Easter, also known as Resurrection Day. Second, read a copy of the Constitution. It is not too long. Then we will un-

What Can a Financial Advisor Do for You? What does investing mean to you? If the word makes you think of transactions – buying or selling stocks and bonds – you’re looking at just part of the picture. To work toward all your goals, such as a comfortable retirement, you need a comprehensive financial strategy. And for that, you might need to work with a personal financial advisor. But what, specifically, can this type of professional do for you? Here are some of the key services a financial advisor can provide: • Help you invest for your retirement – An experienced financial advisor can look at all the relevant factors – your current and projected income, age at which you’d like to retire, desired retirement lifestyle – to help you determine how much you need to invest, and in which investment vehicles, to help you reach your retirement goals. To cite just one example, a financial advisor can review your employer-sponsored retirement plan and help you determine how to use it to your greatest advantage. • Help you save for college – Higher education is expensive, and costs are rising every year. If you’d like to help your children – or grandchildren – go to college someday, you need to save and invest early and often. A financial advisor can suggest appropriate college savings vehicles and strategies. • Help make sure you’re well-protected – If something were to happen to you, could

your family maintain its standard of living? Or if you someday needed some type of long-term care, such as an extended stay in a nursing home, would you be able to maintain your financial independence, or would you be forced to rely on your adult children for help? A financial advisor can recommend and possibly provide suitable protection products and services for your needs. • Help you adjust your financial strategy – Not much will stay constant in your life – and that includes your financial strategy. Any number of events – a new child, a new job, a new retirement destination – can cause you to adjust your investment moves, as will some of the factors influencing the financial markets – economic downturns, changing interest rates, new tax laws, and more. A financial advisor can help you change course as needed – and sometimes encourage you not to change course, when, in his or her professional opinion, you might be tempted to overreact to some event or other. While a financial advisor can help you in many ways, you’ll need, above all else, to feel comfortable with whomever you choose. Ultimately, you’ll want to pick someone who understands what’s important to you, and who will follow an established process to create personalized strategies and recommend specific actions needed to help achieve your goals. And you’ll want someone who will be with you in the long run – someone who will revisit your objectives and risk tolerance and who can adjust your strategies in response to changes in your life. A financial advisor can make a big difference in your life. So, work diligently to find the right one – and take full advantage of the help you’ll receive as you move toward your important goals.

Beach Adirondack honors Carpinterian Foster Markolf

An artpiece and memorial Adirondack bench for the late Foster Markolf has been installed near the lifeguard tower at the end of Holly and Sandyland avenues on Carpinteria City Beach. Markolf passed away in 2018, and was an avid volunteer and cheerleader for the town he loved. He served on the boards of Friends of the Library, Carpinteria Beautiful, Carpinteria Arts Center and Carpinteria Valley Historical Museum. He also volunteered for Santa Barbara Task Force For the Homeless and advocated for the anti-smoking ordinance and plastic bag ban. The bench was commissioned by the Markolf family with support from Carpinteria Beautiful and donated to the city of Carpinteria for all to enjoy. The mosaic embedded in the back was designed by Markolf ’s wife Rosa and lovingly installed by Rosa and her grandson William. It reads, “Give as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”

What’s new at the harbor seal rookery?

The overlook area is relatively narrow, and it is difficult to maintain a safe distance from others, so volunteers are trying to station themselves during low tides at either end of the beach closure. As a result, there is little data on numbers of disturbances and visitors. This report covers March 22-April 5.

Natural History Notes

The six-month beach closure provides a respite and sanctuary not just for the harbor seals, but also for many other species. On occasion the area is a haven for many pelicans and cormorants, as well as other species sought by avid bird watchers. Locals have noticed an increase in pelicans on city beaches, also as a result of the stay at home orders.

Disturbances

Two beach walking disturbances were recorded during the few hours covered from the blufftop, but footprints through the rookery have been observed a few additional times, with panicked seal tracks indicating they were frightened to the sea. If you walk the beach, please do not hesitate to let people know the seals are not threatened by Covid-19, but they are by human disturbance. For information on Sealwatch, call (805) 684-2247.

How staying home is helping the planet Cvn

living the green life erin maker While trying to think about what I could write about for this column, I found myself struggling. I don’t need to go down the road of “things are rough” since I know everyone is feeling that way (and if you aren’t, please share your secret with the rest of us). Every aspect of our lives has been affected by the global pandemic. And I am not going to tell you that the current situation is good for the environment. There may be some temporary positive environmental impacts, but those come at a great cost and other areas that we had been improving our impacts on are suffering. When measuring environmental impacts, we should be looking at the overall health, not just one area. Right now, the future is uncertain. And that seems scary. But if we start thinking long term as a society, it may be possible to make changes that have lasting positive consequences. A healthy planet means a lower risk of disease for all living things. While that perspective may seem trivial right now, it is very important that we make changes to reduce the likelihood of another global health emergency even while we are dealing with the current one. You see, the virus currently disrupting our lives is what is called a zoonotic disease, one that happens when pathogens transfer from animals to humans. And no one person or population is to blame for that. The United Nations has identified multiple factors that increase the risk of these diseases developing, and I am going to touch on a few of them. The activities that we associate with civilization have altered the landscape of the planet and brought us closer into contact with wild areas. I have written before about the urbanwildland interface in relation to fires, and how as we move further into the wild lands, we increase the risk of extreme impacts to our homes from wildfire. This is also true in relation to infectious diseases. Increasingly, habitats are fragmented as we make room for homes and agriculture to meet societal demands. There are solutions to this, but it means changing the way we live. Building sustainable communities that encourage urban infill and alternative transportation is one way to reduce these impacts. Eating less meat is another. Climate change associated with greenhouse gas emissions can greatly increase the problem. Drastic temperature changes associated with climate change can affect the survival rate of the microbes that cause infectious diseases. Evidence sug-

You may have heard that around the globe air pollution has significantly reduced. It is important to remember that it is a temporary change due to stay at home orders, but it is possible that once we can restart our social and economic engagement, each of us could do things to try to keep our individual contributions to greenhouse gas emissions lower.

gests as climate change increases the rate of disease epidemics will become more frequent. I have talked a lot over the years about alternative transportation and reduction of fossil fuel use as a way to do our part for climate change. Now more than ever we should not lose sight of that. You may have heard that around the globe air pollution has significantly reduced. It is important to remember that

it is a temporary change due to stay at home orders, but it is possible that once we can restart our social and economic engagement, each of us could do things to try to keep our individual contributions to greenhouse gas emissions lower. We could use public transportation more often or walk and bike instead of driving when feasible. Public health recommendations are

incredibly important to follow, and hopefully paying attention and doing the right thing now will have us functioning again economically and socially soon. Building a better society once things get to a point where we can reengage socially could significantly improve our quality of life in the future. Besides the individual impacts, as stimulus packages are developed and we restart the economy, having measures in place that encourage a much greener path for all business practices may be the most important factor in reducing disease epidemics and improving the overall health of our planet.

CHS Alum Tori Kelley keeps climbing to higher levels By Alonzo orozco • Photos By rosAnA swing

Carpinteria High School graduate Tori Kelley, class of 2017, continues to reach new heights. A former Warriors basketball and softball player, Kelley wasted no time adjusting to college life when she entered Santa Barbara City College. Under the guidance of Vaqueros Women’s basketball coach Sandrine Krul, Kelley walked on to play for the school. Three years later, she helped lead the squad to the playoffs and was named to the Academic All-State Basketball Team by the California Com-

munity College Women’s Basketball Coaches Association with a hefty 4.0 GPA. Growing up, Kelley played many sports—tennis, swimming, roller hockey and golf. She even road dirt bikes. She played varsity basketball her freshman year and all four years at CHS. Her sophomore year, she was named to the 2014-15 All-Frontier League team, and the Warriors took first place that season with a league record of 11-3 and a 14-9

ShORT STOPS ciF cancels spring high school sports season

On April 3, California Interscholastic Federation (CIF) canceled all 10 CIF Sections, including the Southern Section (SS), officially ending the high school spring sports season for 2020. “While I have the ultimate responsibility to make decisions that are in the best interest of our section, I do not do so in a vacuum,” wrote CIF Commissioner Rob Wigod in a letter concerning the effects of the Covid-19 virus. “Specifically, the advice of the Centers of Disease Control, as well as other federal, state and local health authorities were vital towards navigating our path forward.” Wigod, who has been with the organization for 20 years, stated, “I realize that the goals, dreams and aspirations of student-athletes, coaches, athletic directors, principals, parents, officials and fans have been dashed by this decision. That weighed very heavily on the ultimate decision that we had to make.” This also puts an end to the pursuit of a second straight championship for the Cate girls lacrosse team, currently ranked eighth in Division II in the CIF-SS polls. It also means, the Carpinteria High School boys volleyball team’s quest for a second consecutive Citrus Coast League title is squashed, and the CHS track and field team’s 101st Russell Cup Meet will not take place.

cate announces winter sports honorees

Cate School recently announced their award winners from the 2019-20 winter sports season. For boys basketball: seniors Ethan Ng and Khadim Pouye and junior Nkemka Chukwumerije were named to the All-Frontier League First Team. Second Team honors went to seniors Thomas Nettesheim and Parker May and Honorable Mention status was earned by sophomores Mason Oetgen and Tyler Tom. For girls basketball, the Rams, who captured the Frontier League title with and 8-0 record, had seven players named to the All-League team. The Most Valuable Player award was earned by senior Maya Blattberg. Joining her on the First Team were sophomore Meena Baher and junior Lily Zanze. The Second Team consisted of senior Piper Brooks and junior Deborah Brittain. Honorable Mention awards

record overall. Kelley played softball under coach Henry Gonzales for three years. In 2017, her senior year, she helped lead the Warriors to a 19-8 overall record as the team finished tied for second in the Frontier League with a 7-3 record. “Henry was always a strict coach and expected a lot from you, but I’m happy he did that because it always made me push myself in practices and games, so, it was a good experience that prepared me for college sports,” said Kelley. After Kelley reached out to Krul about joining the team at SBCC, the coach invited her to try out for the Women’s basketball team. Her college career hit a bit of a roadblock though when she suffered an injury her freshman year. “I wasn’t able to be 100 percent healthy to compete on the team,” said Kelley. As a result, Kelley decided to redshirt (sit out) and began her first year on the team as a sophomore. Practices were a lot more competitive at SBCC. “In college, you are constantly fighting for a spot every day and if you don’t compete and push yourself to get better, you don’t play,” said Kelley. To make matters more difficult, at five feet, two inches tall, Kelley was one of the smaller players on the team. “I knew I was the shortest player, but I didn’t want that to stop me and I also didn’t want to compare myself to anyone.” Kelley had always made up for her lack of height by being a good shooter. Her senior year in high school, she scored 18 points in two consecutive games in February of 2017. As a senior at SBCC, she was a big contributor as well. With Kelley and a few other former local high school players on the squad, the Vaqueros jump started the team to a

Valley College in the Southern Cal Regional playoffs. Kelley recently earned her A.A. degree from SBCC in Kinesiology, and has been accepted into the Athletic Trainer program at Cal State University at Northridge where she will begin summer courses in late May. “This last year’s team has been a second family to me. Every day I enjoyed coming to practice and being with my friends. There was never a dull moment with them, and I already miss playing,” said Kelley. As for playing at the major college level with the Matadors, don’t count her out.

were received by senior Jess Yang and sophomore Imani Oseso. Coach of the Year honors were granted to Laura Moore in her first year in charge of the program. The boys soccer team who won the Tri-Valley League with a 5-0-1 record, had five players make the First Team. The Offensive Most Valuable Player went to senior Buba Fofanah, and he was joined on the First Team by seniors Parker Bowlin and Harry Corman, and sophomores Daniel Boateng and Kobby Nimako. The Second Team had two Rams, senior Devin Pai and junior William Deardorff. Honorable Mention status was earned by senior William Anderson, sophomore Lukas Hendriks and freshman Owen Conde Raggett. Coach of the Year went to Pete Mack. The girls soccer team had three players named to the First Team, senior Neema Mugofwa and juniors Taylor Kane and Lilly Riehl. The Second Team included two Rams, juniors Jolea Moes and Tali Nam. Honorable Mention honors were bestowed upon seniors Kim Rogers and Grace Blankenhorn, and sophomore Rachel Ma. Coach of the Year honors went to Taylor Wyatt. The girls water polo team had a few honorees with Second Team recognition going to senior Marissa Strauss. Honorable Mentions were doled out to sophomores Tori Trimble and Alekha Rao, and freshman Liz Sutter. All-CIF Honors went to two Rams, in boys soccer to senior Buba Fofanah who was named to the First Team. And in girls basketball as announced last week, First Team recognition went to sophomore Meena Baher.

cate tennis standout Ethan ha to play at westmont college

On April 3, Westmont College announced that Cate School senior Ethan Ha will play tennis at the school beginning in 2020. Ha confirmed his commitment via Facebook Messenger on April 6. Ha, a three-time Tri-Valley League singles champion, has been a force in high school tennis since teaming up as a freshman with his brother Kevin for the Rams. In 2017, he helped lead the Rams to the CIF-Southern Section Division III semifinals. “The coaches are very smart and kind,” said Ha. “Assistant coach Christian Mathis has been like cate tennis a big brother to me and has always been champ Ethan someone I could rely on.

Waiting is part of the game CVN

IT’S ALL SURFING CHRISTIAN BEAMISH We’re rounding the corner on a month now of sheltering-in-place. Aside from the uncertainty of this time, we’re enjoying being together as a family. The morning rush to school is no longer an issue, and we’re able to focus the hours of study in the areas our daughter is working to improve on. The fridge is full. No one we know has been stricken. Still, I live in a bit of a haze, mentally (more so than my usual out-to-lunchness), similar to my state of mind through the long weeks of the Thomas Fire, with something like a running list of shifting priorities and threat assessments that I can never quite nail down. On the first weekend of the governor’s stay-at-home order, we took the exception to go outside for exercise and rode our bikes down to the beach. It was a beautiful spring day and many others were out just like us. But then my wife and I began noticing groups of adults strolling together. Surely, they weren’t all in the same households, right? There were fewer than 10 people together, but it didn’t seem there was much social distancing going on. A friend of ours came by, keeping a good 10-paces out and explaining that the friend she was with lived alone, suggesting, it seemed, that he was somehow immune. While the people I’ve encountered on the street and in the store have all been courteous, this invisible coronavirus threat brings an added level of scrutiny to interactions, and I find myself parsing neighbors’ words to tease-out where exposure may have occurred. Mention of a visit to grandparents’ houses, or that a cousin came down from Oregon fills me with outrage and revulsion in equal measure. The kids who were joyfully playing together after school a month ago now only say hi from behind a window screen. The beaches of Los Angeles and San Diego had big crowds on the same weekend when we’d seen all the people on the beach here, and authorities in those coun-

We don’t go out much now, except for shopping, and when we do there is much hand sanitizing and soap and water upon our return home. But the kids need exercise, and when the water got sparkling and blue, the sun shining down, I snuck out there again, my eight-year-old daughter in her wetsuit and little surfboard paddling into her ﬁrst all-by-herself waves, and my four-year-old boy “battling” in the shorebreak till his teeth were chattering with the cold. But later in the week, on another bike ride out for fresh air, we unwittingly sat for a few minutes at the seal overlook

bench. I had forgotten our home-spun hand sanitizer (diluted hydrogen peroxide, rubbing alcohol and a touch of teatree oil) and our youngest one, naturally, rubbed his eyes and stuck his ﬁngers in his mouth. Suddenly, our little cross-town bike adventure took on a more ominous dimension. Riding home along Carpinteria Avenue a guy at a motel yelled at us, “What part of stay-at-home don’t you understand?” But come to think of it, what the hell was he doing at a motel? A guy in Culver City, Los Angeles ordered a surfboard a week ago, and I was able to get the blank for it from Fiberglass Hawaii in Ventura before they shut down (although they now operate by telephone order and drop-off supplies for pick up from the loading area of their building). The place where I’m shaping now in Ventura is a converted shipping container in a boat yard. One guy laminates surfboards in a shop space separate from mine, and another three workers are across the lot, laying up and sanding ﬁberglass and resin on the boats in full safety gear. Still, there is the bathroom we all use, and the simple fact of being out in the world even if we are keeping our

distance. I believe in the social contract, that we all have to do our part, but I’ve got to try and keep some income coming as relief payments have yet to arrive in any form. I’m definitely bringing the hand sanitizer and using it with every move in and out of the shaping bay, but every action is haunted—from touching the door handle on my car, to opening the gate to the yard. I read a post recently in which a woman wrote of her experiences cruising on a sailboat, equating this time of limited interaction to the closed-off world of life at sea. Tasks like cooking and doing the dishes are accomplished now in a less time-conscious way. Since making plans is on hold, we have only to react to the conditions at hand, which is an act of surfing. With most commercial activity and travel having been halted, I find myself hoping for a new way of being in the world, one that is much more localized and moves in an expanded sense of time. Perhaps it’s all been moving too fast in the 21st century, and if we nurture a return to the old ways—gardens and music, sails and oars and bicycles—we’ll find the magic and focus many of us look for so continuously on our smartphones. Christian Beamish lives in Carpinteria with his wife and two small children. He is a surfboard shaper, the former Associate Editor of The Surfer’s Journal and the author of “The Voyage of the Cormorant,” (Patagonia Books, 2012) about a surfing journey by sail and oar down the Pacific coast of Baja aboard his self-built, 18-foot Shetland Isles beach boat.

CITY OF CARPINTERIA 5775 CARPINTERIA AVENUE CARPINTERIA, CA 93013 (805) 684-5405/www.carpinteria.ca.us NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARPINTERIA MONDAY, APRIL 27, 2020 AT 5:30 P.M. Notice is hereby given that a public hearing will be held before a regular meeting of the City Council at 5:30 p.m., or as soon thereafter as may be heard, on Monday, April 27, 2020 on the following matter: Consideration of an ordinance amending Chapter 14.74 of Title 14 of the Carpinteria Municipal Code that will establish revised standards for the submission and evaluation of projects that propose to convert apartments to condominiums, community apartment projects, stock cooperatives and/or cooperative apartments, as those terms are defined in the ordinance. The ordinance also will include tenant protection provisions for the existing apartment residents. The ordinance defines the terms apartment, condominium, community apartment project, and stock cooperative to have the meaning given to them by the Uniform Building Code, section 783 of the California Civil Code, section 4105 of the California Civil Code, and section 11003.2 of the Business & Professions Code, respectively. The proposed ordinance would define cooperative apartment as a project of more than four units in which an undivided interest in land is coupled with the exclusive right of occupancy of any dwelling unit located thereon, whether such right is contained in the form of a written or oral agreement, when such right does not appear on the face of the deed. In response to the spread of the COVID-19 virus, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20 which temporarily suspends the requirement for local agencies to provide a physical location from which members of the public can observe and offer public comment. To minimize the potential spread of the COVID-19 virus, the City of Carpinteria has decided to close physical access for members of the public to the City Council Chambers for this meeting. However, you are encouraged to view all streamed City meetings live on the City of Carpinteria’s website at www.carpinteria.ca.us or on Government Access Television Channel 21 and provide the City Council with public comment in one of the following ways: 1.

Coastal View News • Carpinteria, California

Movies to watch while on lockdown And he wins! He overcomes! It makes hardship feel a bit like an adventure—and temporary, and overcomeable.

duncan’s reel deal

“Bloodsport”: This Jean-Claude Van Damme cult classic scores very high in bonus points for over-the-top, cheesy action. It’s extremely over-the-top, extremely cheesy. Much like many of my late-night snacks. But, hey, both go down pretty easy, even if I don’t feel great about it after.

m at t d u n c a n We’re all on lockdown. No one’s going anywhere, including the movie theater. So instead of reviewing one newly released movie that no one can see right now, I figured I’d offer some suggestions for movies you can stream on Netflix, unless otherwise noted, while dealing with this coronavirus crisis. Now, different people deal with crises in different ways. Some look for morale boosters. Others embrace the darkness. Some seek distraction from their troubles. Others just want to rage. When it comes to binge-watching our anxieties away, there’s no one size fits all. So I’m going to break it down by categories of preferred cinematic medicine.

“The Hangover”: This surprisingly non-obnoxious comedy starring Bradley Cooper, Ed Helms and Zach Galifianakis brings some much-needed levity to the possibility of things just getting worse and worse. “Romancing the Stone”: This throwback starring Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner has action, adventure and heartwarming romance. It’s not a very serious movie—but that may be just what you need.

Comfort watching & pick-me-up flicks

“Pandemic”: If you’re looking for something in the non-fiction category, this documentary is as interesting as it is terrifying.

“Strictly Ballroom”: Made in Baz Luhrmann’s (“Moulin Rouge!” “The Great Gatsby”) typical over-the-top, flashy style, this movie might add a little pep to your step by getting you into something quite a bit less serious than a pandemic. “Kingpin”: This movie is goofy. And it’s got Bill Murray, Woody Harrelson and Randy Quaid. And it was made in the 90s … all the ingredients necessary for boosted spirits.

“Outbreak”: This obvious choice starring Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo and Morgan Freeman will show you just how bad a pandemic could be.

Action

The “Indiana Jones” series: Harrison Ford takes on what ails the world in a swashbuckling, lighthearted sort of way.

Great-Grandma Lizzie cVn

Grandma Lizzie was the seventh of 10 children. While her parents were both born in the US, her grandparents all hailed from Germany.* I have been able to learn a fair amount about her from my father and aunt, as my aunt recounted, “Grandma Lizzie was raised in St. Louis, Missouri. Her dad was a butcher, but he died when she was 11. She said he would swing his leg up on the meat wagon and l I s a O ’ r e I l lY hit it in the same place, and that’s how he got cancer. They called it necrosis of On June 18, 1885, 214 crates containing the tibia, but Grandma used to call it the Statue of Liberty arrived in New York tuberculosis of the leg. on the French frigate Isere. That same day, “After her father died, Grandma my great-grandmother Elizabeth Maria Lizzie didn’t go to school anymore and Paulina Gelser Miller was born in St. went to work to help support the family. Louis, Missouri; and 125 years later I was Grandma worked in a taxidermy shop, to discover a closer French connection. in a haberdashery where they made hats, and as a baby nurse. “Before my grandparents married, Grandma Lizzie went with George Hoffman for three years. He was the son of the butcher and she was going to have to live above the butcher shop, and she didn’t want to live above her in-laws. He also drank and would go on a toot, and she decided she was going to be through with him. She hooked up with Mr. Miller on the rebound. She always called him Mr. Miller. She said she didn’t love him at first, but she learned to love him. “Whenever Grandma laughed, she’d close her eyes because she had Bell’s Lisa’s Great-Grandmother Lizzie’s family Palsy when she was young, tree. Asterisk denotes Lizzie’s probable nonand one side of her face biological grandfather.

Apocalyptic & otherwise terrible scenarios

“I am Legend” (Amazon Prime): This post-apocalyptic movie, featuring a nice performance by Will Smith, will show you just how bad a pandemic could get if researchers don’t miraculously cure it (also see “Zombieland” on Hulu).

“There Will Be Blood”: Finally, if you want to take a different angle on this mess and bathe in the destructive, inhumane instincts of capitalism—and an amazing performance by Daniel Day Lewis—this P. T. Anderson classic is a good bet.

While in the territory of riding the pandemic wave, you might consider some other themes. For example, we were told that the private sector—big tech, in particular—is going to save us. So maybe watch “Steve Jobs” or “Social Network.” On the other hand, if you just want to get away from it all—if you want to be transported to a distant land or another time—“Hook” is an excellent choice, as are “Once Upon A Time in the West” and “The Ballad of Buster Scruggs.” In a related vein, if you want to imagine a future where things are pretty much all right, check out “Her.” And if you just need to have your faith in humanity restored, then, please, please watch “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” (Hulu, HBO). Mr. Rogers—he’s there for us. Speaking of Mr. Rogers, most (if not all) of the above recommendations are for adults, not kids. But, for many of us, keeping kids entertained is a sanity essential during lockdown. So, for kids, I recommend the following: Get Disney Plus. Go crazy. Matt Duncan, a former Coastal View News editor, has taken physical but not emotional leave from Carpinteria to be a philosophy professor at Rhode Island College. In his free time from philosophizing, Duncan enjoys chasing his kids around, watching movies and updating his movie review blog, duncansreeldeal.blogspot.com.

Arbol Verde neighbors make 3,000 masks to help keep Carpinteria safe By DeBra Herrick PHotos By kern Ducote In late February, 80-year-old Pat Beals, a retired Halloween costume manufacturer, started making cloth face masks in her Arbol Verde garage. By mid-March, over a dozen Concha Loma neighbors had joined Beals’ grassroots production chain, making a staggering 3,000 cloth masks by the first week in April. By then, the group had given itself a name, “Neighbor-to-Neighbor;” and this week, there’s a new batch of 800 masks in different stages of the production line, and no plans to slow down. Beals has a hefty background in mass production. She’s the founder of Teetot & Company, Inc. a family-run Halloween costume company that supplies to Costco and other big box stores. She taught mask production in China for 20 years. Now, working with a group of home sewers—many from Carpinteria Community Church’s Crafty Ladies—she’s turned that expertise towards a formidable goal: getting a mask on every adult in Carpinteria. The group’s first target was to cover the homeless population; once accomplished, they swiftly started distributing their brightly colored 100 percent cotton masks to Albertsons and Smart & Final employees; branching out over the days to other retail shops, restaurants and health care agencies. Soon they were fielding calls from all over Carpinteria and Santa Barbara. “I knew in my heart that this was coming,” said Beals. “We are pumping these out just as fast as we can.” On the neighborhood production line, Beals has assigned volunteers to specific details. Some wash, dry and iron, others cut fabric, a handful cut wire or elastic, and there are many sewers. Distribution also has a team, headed by Lynn Menicucci. All sections are done in sets of 20; volunteers pick up their packs from Louise Moore. This division of labor and clear organization has contributed to the group’s ability to produce at high volumes. But Beals is ready to do more. “These sewers are really generous with their time and their hearts,” said Beals. “But we need more sewers and more people to cut wire and elastic, and more people to help distribute.” So far, Beals has footed the $7-10,000 needed for fabric and supplies. “This is

Sewing machines have been running nonstop for weeks to help ensure every adult in Carpinteria who wants a cloth mask can have one for free. life or death and I love this town,” she said, noting that the group is accepting monetary donations now “to help us keep going.” “We called ourselves ‘Neighbor to Neighbor’ because its neighbors helping neighbors.” Beals noted that cloth face masks are

not full protection, “They protect you from other people coughing and spitting when they talk” and should be washed and sanitized between uses. “We’re trying to flatten the curve in Carpinteria,” said Beals. “This is where we know people and have people we care for. Carpinteria is a very small community.

We’re trying to take care of each other.” The group is also helping provide face masks to Santa Barbara and Ventura agencies. “We’ll help anyone we can help.” To receive a Neighbor to Neighbor face mask or to learn about volunteering as a sewer, cutter or distributor, contact lynnmenicucci@yahoo.com.

Finding good in the ’hood: neighbors helping neighbors By kern Ducote The current situation with “He who must not be named,” aka Covid-19, has created some real head-scratchers, leaving us questioning “the right thing” to do. Yeah, we’re all quarantine-ing and socialdistancing, but the grey area has never felt broader. The feeling of uncertainty is everywhere. All of the sudden it seems as if I have forgotten how to be decisive. “Do you wanna go for a walk?” my wife asks. I think about the question as if the fate of the world depends on it. What could happen on our eight-minute walk to the beach in our new neighborhood? She patiently watches as the blank thousandmile stare comes over my face. “We’re just going to the beach,” she says, snapping me out of my trance. We leave the safety of our home and step into the world full of unclear boundaries. The simple movement, fresh air and a normal sunset worked like an invisible masseuse on the body, mind and soul.

Dusk was coming on and we were nearly back to our house when we walked past a neighbor we hadn’t met before with her garage door open. As we peered into her world, her tiny dogs reminded us we were encroaching on their territory and the shelter-in-place quarantine. We waved and kept walking, but then it registered to me what she was doing, and I paused. She had hardly noticed us, concentrated at a sewing machine. I have to talk to her I thought. “Hi there. What are you working on?” I asked. “Masks,” she replied. I had just been thinking about the very thing. It was popping up in the news everywhere that medical professionals and first responders were running out of simple personal protective equipment, like face masks. “But I’m out of machine oil,” she continued. “I’ll get some for you!” I blurted out. She stopped and looked at me. “You have machine oil?” she said. My slightly unkempt and grizzly appearance may have caused some consternation. We spent the next few

minutes going through the formalities of introducing ourselves, and I explained why I could grab her some machine oil. “I work with Worn Wear. It’s a program that Patagonia started a few years back. We drive all over the country and fix people’s clothing on the spot. We use

a walk was the right thing. I pillaged the Worn Wear trailer the next day and returned with way less machine oil than I thought we had. Fortunately, Pat had already sourced another liter from a benefactor to her project. I gave her what I had, and she mentioned

She had hardly noticed us, concentrated at a sewing machine. I have to talk to her I thought. “Hi there. What are you working on?” I asked. “Masks,” she replied. the same machine you’ve got there. I’ll swing by the trailer tomorrow and grab you some oil.” She lit up like a Christmas tree. She said she was 80 and in the “at risk” category and so her regular sewing machine mechanic couldn’t help her because they were sick. I told her I’d be back tomorrow with the oil. We exchanged info and waved goodbye to our new friend Pat Beals and her dogs, certain that going for

she was nearly out of elastic. I had some at my house and brought it over for her right away. It worked perfectly, but she used almost a yard per mask. “I’ll be back.” I said impersonating Arnold and I returned to source a few more rolls of elastic from Worn Wear. After all, we weren’t using it at the moment.

Each mask has three layers to increase protection. They’re made with a fabric tie instead of elastic. The 100 percent cotton is moisture wicking and doesn’t usually get too warm for users. A psychologist, Williams specializes in treating patients who have experienced trauma and have mild to moderate anxiety disorders, substance abuse issues or depression. She’s usually based at American Indian Health & Services in Santa Barbara, but the stay at home order has her working from the Carpinteria home she shares with her husband First District Supervisor Das Williams. After a long day of telehealth sessions and taking care of her daughters, sewing Arlene Avalos has set up a free masks booth is a way for Williams to relax outside her home for anybody who wants one. and meditate. “And I want to do something that’s helping others,” she said. “I’ll do as much as I can as long as there is a need.” Arlene Avalos is a regular at the craft booth at the Carpinteria Farmers’ Market and the Carpinteria Arts Center art market. Right now, though, she says making masks is a better use of her time and talent. “I have been blessed in my life and want to share the blessings with others,” said Avalos. Avalos has been making non-medical grade cotton masks and giving them away Coordinating volunteer distributors and in her neighborhood. “There getting the word out has been Lynn are so many people out of Menicucci’s role with Neighbor to Neighbor.

Continued from page 26 It turns out Pat has a network of dozens of volunteers throughout the neighborhood who are playing a part in manufacturing masks out of her garage. So far, her group, Neighbor to Neighbor, has made 3,000 masks. Pat has a short expandable fence set up as a barrier—keeping her dogs, Tink and Rosie, in and the rest of us out. She lays things on the table close by or drapes them over the fence, passing materials to her crew of neighbors while remaining a responsible distance away. Throughout the day, I watch several neighbors walk across the street and either pick up or drop off their portions of the pattern for the masks. Laura Cook has been cutting the fabric patterns out, while another neighbor washes and dries them; someone else preps the pipe cleaner to hold the shape Cottage Hospital prefers. While all this is going on, a neighbor volunteers to walk the dogs and someone else is shopping and picking up food. During a time when bad news seems to be stacking up like pancakes at an all you can eat buffet, good things are hap-

pening. In meeting Pat, I discovered the inspiration I needed. Here was this lovely lady who had every right to be hunkered down, afraid or uncertain, but instead she recognized that her talents could fulfill a community need and bravely decided to meet that need with all her energy. She was certain in a time of uncertainty. Her courage pulled me out of over-thinking and into action. There are “Pats” leading the way and championing community in neighborhoods around the world. We can all do away with uncertainty and do what we can to contribute to the good going on all around us.

Kern Ducote is a photographer for Patagonia’s Worn Wear. He recently moved to Carpinteria’s Arbol Verde neighborhood.

Practicing social distancing, Beals’ son Billy passes off a set of wire he’s cut for face masks.
