The month of November marked a 10-year milestone for the Carpinteria Alzheimer’s Caregiver Support Group. Since its early meetings at Hurley Optical to the present location at the Faith Lutheran Church, the group has evolved to provide guidance, assistance and comfort to caregivers for dementia patients. Founding members Jack Hurley, Donnie Nair and Nola Ferguson celebrated the anniversary with dozens of current members of the tight-knit group.

Ballet is like breathing for this year’s Clara

BOYD

Erin Otsuki was selected from among dozens of talented local dancers for the role of Clara in the “The Nutcracker.”

Comments welcome.

CoastalView.com

Dancing the part of Clara in “The Nutcracker” is an honor that Erin Otsuki doesn’t take lightly. The 12-year-old ballerina has spent six hours every Saturday since September at Curtis Studio of Dance learning and perfecting the choreography for the lead role in the annual Christmas production. And she does it with a smile.

Otsuki has been dancing at the local studio since age 4. On top of her Nutcracker rehearsals, she takes nine dance classes weekly. The quiet homeschool student described dance as an important outlet. “Dance helps me express my emotions, and takes me away from everything else,” she said.

For the last eight years, she climbed the ladder of Nutcracker roles. As a 4-yearold, she donned a gray mouse costume and did what the rest of the littlest dancers do—shifted her tiny slippers into basic ballet positions while peering wide-eyed into the dazzling stage lights.

Those little ballerinas hone their skills every year—some leave dance to pursue other interests and others turn the casual hobby into a way of life. When CVN asked Otsuki about her other activities, she paused, then said with a small laugh,

“I’ve never really done anything except dance.”

She found out last summer that she’d been selected by studio owner Bonnie Curtis to dance the part of Clara, an honor exclusive to one girl each year. “I was really excited,” said Otsuki, “but I was trying not to freak out.”

Otsuki expects to be nervous on opening night but will calm herself with her tried-and-true method of visualizing the dance moves in her mind before executing them in front of the crowd. In addition to remembering an immense amount of choreography, Otsuki must incorporate more acting onstage than she ever has before. Clara moves from dreamy, to frightened, to bold and triumphant over the course of the famous ballet.

“The Nutcracker” will showcase not only Otsuki’s talent, but also that of over 100 local dancers, along with special guest dancers Jean Michelle Sayeg and Gary Franco. Performances are scheduled for Friday, Dec. 15 at 7 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 16 at 1 p.m. at Carpinteria Middle School, 5351 Carpinteria Ave. For tickets and more information, call 684-4099 or visit curtisdance.com.

Unified School District closed its schools Dec. 6 and will remain closed Dec. 7 due to air quality issues. Residents should sign up for Aware and Prepare through the City of Carpinteria website, carpinteria.ca.us.

On Wednesday morning Fire Chief Ray Navarro of Carpinteria-Summerland Fire Protection District said that threat to Carpinteria is not imminent, although he added “We’re not going to be out of the woods today, tonight or the next day.”

The Thomas Fire has expanded to 65,000 acres and still has zero percent containment as the blaze continues to rage Wednesday. The blaze has destroyed at least 150 structures, and Cal Fire said 12,000 more are threatened. The fire ignited Monday evening and has steadily increased, charring a massive 70 square miles. More than 7,000 homes in Ventura County were under mandatory evacuation as the blaze closed in on downtown Ventura, where multiple structures were reportedly burning. Fire officials said 27,000 people were evacuated from their residences.

N

As of 3 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 6, the Thomas Fire had reached Casitas Pass off Highway 150, and burned to the north side of Rincon Mountain. Anticipating the fire moving west of Highway 150, the Santa Barbara Sheriff’s Department and fire agencies are coordinating with Ventura County officials to determine “trigger points” to activate warnings and evacuation orders for the eastern part of Carpinteria Valley, including Gobernador Canyon, Shepard Mesa, Cate School and Lillingston Canyon.

“Our biggest concern,” said Santa Barbara Sheriff Commander Kelly Moore, “is that the fire goes into the back country (of the Santa Ynez Mountains behind Carpinteria) and the winds push the fire over the ridge and into the front range.”

If evacuation orders are issued, shelters will be available at UC Santa Barbara and at Santa Barbara City College, with large animals sheltered at the Earl Warren Show Grounds.

Cate School housed Thacher students overnight on Dec. 5, but Cate has now also evacuated as of Dec. 6. Carpinteria

Ronald Clair Husted 3/28/1946 – 11/27/2017

In the early hours of Monday, Nov. 27, 2017, beloved husband, son/brotherin-law, father, grandfather and greatgrandfather, uncle and friend Ronald “Ronnie” Husted, passed away with the comfort of loved ones by his side. He had lived a life full of accomplishments, family and friends who loved and will miss him, and the “forever love” of his sweetheart and wife of almost 53 years Beverly Jean Husted.

Born on March 28, 1946 in Santa Rosa, Calif., Ronnie was the son of Euel and Loretta Husted, and one of five brothers: Leonard, Clifford, Edward, Ronald and David. After they moved to Carpinteria, he spent much of his young life at the beach—fishing and surfing with his brothers and friends. He attended Carpinteria’s Main and High Schools—and met the “love of his life,” Beverly, during his wonderful childhood there. His brother Leonard lives in Lake Havasu, and his brother David in Goleta.

He obtained work at Josten’s in Summerland as a hand engraver—even working on the famous Super Bowl rings!

He eventually took a job with Mission Linen in Santa Barbara, working there for almost 30 years. As Plant Manager, his shop was even named “shop of the year.”

He married Beverly on Jan. 23, 1965, and in the 52 years they were together, they exemplified true love and family bonds.

They lived on Castillo Street in Santa Barbara before buying their home on Aragon Drive in Carpinteria in 1972.

Having great natural artistic talent, Ronnie enjoyed carving (Santa Claus, dwarves, an Indian Warrior head), tile work, painting and brickwork. He and Bev even took stain-glass classes together in Santa Barbara—the result of which is the beautiful front door window in their home with the initials “R” and “B” and three red roses that represent their sons. There was nothing he could not do as a “handyman”—including adding the second story “Master Suite” for his

Sweetheart, and adding a swimming pool for the great enjoyment of his family and friends.

One of the true pleasures of the life he shared with Beverly and their sons was a long-standing affection for the University of Southern California Trojans—they had season tickets for over 20 years, and attended every home game whenever possible. Their Aragon Drive neighbors always knew when the Trojans were playing because the USC cardinal-and-gold flag was waving proudly outside the Husted home!

Ronnie enjoyed watching people quietly—and developed nicknames for those he truly loved, like his nephew Tim, whom he called “Jim”, and, of course, his beloved Beverly—his “Baby Doll.” His greatest gift in life was the love he had for his family, and the kindness and love he shared with everyone he came across.

He is remembered for his sweet sense of humor and his happy smile, and his great compassion for all animals, but especially for his best buddy “Traveler.”

The success he found in his life was based on a strong work ethic, positive attitude and a giving spirit. He was considered a great friend and neighbor by everyone who knew him—and he often spent time helping them with repairs and/or improvements—and they could always enjoy his heartfelt laugh and quiet manner. Despite his many talents, Ron never bragged about himself, but just shared what he could with others, including fruit from their backyard trees.

Ron is survived by his beloved Beverly; his mother-in-law Nana; sister-in-law Linda (Dan) Parra, brothers-in-law Leon (Robin) and Paul (Ruth); his brothers Leonard (Sharon) and David; numerous nieces and nephews; his sons Shawn (Georgina), Ron Jr. (Nunes aka “Rocket”) (Heather) and Matthew—10 grandchildren, Gabriela, Brittnee, Amy, Marisa, Ronald III (Buddy), Yasmin, Tatiana, Keanu, Ashton, Brett; and great-grandson Christopher, who lives with his Mom Britnee in Ohio.

He was preceded in death by his parents and brothers Clifford and Edward.

The family would like to thank the doctors and other staff at Cottage Hospital in Santa Barbara for their care, and special gratitude to Dr. Beamer at Sansum Clinic for his love, prayers and help.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations would be appreciated to St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital, and or animal shelters of your choice.

Visitation will be held on Saturday, Dec. 9 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at WELCHRYCE Funeral Chapel, 15 E Sola Street, Santa Barbara. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Monday, Dec. 11 at 10 a.m. at St. Joseph’s Chapel, 4691 7th Street, Carpinteria.

Das weighs in on weed

Everyone is talking about it. Marijuana. Why is it here? What is being done about it?

It’s here in such force because the voters decided to legalize it, but it began when a previous Board chose to ban new cultivation operations while grandfathering existing ones, creating a massive legal gray area. So, we are living under a ban and bans don’t work.

We are trying desperately to enforce our ban, but illegally cultivating marijuana is a zoning violation. That means we are going after illegal marijuana operations in the same way we go after illegal garage conversions. It takes time, and it isn’t the right process for the problem we’re dealing with. For context, our zoning enforcement department has received 48 total complaints related to marijuana cultivation. Of those 48 complaints, only two in the Carpinteria area resulted in physical removal of marijuana plants.

The funny thing is, if we want more enforcement, then we must permit marijuana so that there is a set of clear rules and adequate resources and personnel to enforce them. That enforcement needs to be funded by the industry through permit compliance fees, and eventually a tax on marijuana. Revenue must be used to mitigate the effects of legalization through the funding of preventative measures like mental health care, drug education (which has been so successful in reducing cigarette use) and addiction intervention.

Odor control, fingerprinting, bars on employment of felons, strict environmental, building and electrical standards for indoor operations, and a cap on the total number of licenses granted in the Carpinteria area are absolutely critical in order for me to support any future ordinance.

Of course, each of these ideas has many components, and I invite you to reach out to my office and dialogue with me further.

I love this town we live in, and I am going to do my best to deal with the situation we all find ourselves in.

Das Williams Carpinteria resident First District Santa Barbara County Supervisor

Pot capital?

Is the Carpinteria Valley becoming a “pot capital”? Everywhere you look, marijuana is rearing its ugly head. Once reputable nursery owners have “sold out” to drug growers; people are harvesting pot in their homes, and it is being grown right next to Carpinteria High School.

Each day, people living in the Carpinteria area are realizing the dangers of this massive production of pot. People living near pot greenhouses are suffering from headaches, congested sinuses and even nausea as the skunk-like odor permeates the once fresh air.

Safety is also a concern. What workers are harvesting the marijuana, and how many unsavory characters will attempt to steal it? Who will be looking out for the safety of our teens and children?

And what about water? It takes a lot of water to grow all this pot. Isn’t California a drought-ridden state?

Finally, where does a lot of this marijuana come from? Mexico. This is why we need a border wall. Isn’t marijuana a gateway drug to stronger drugs? It is also known that pot today is stronger and more dangerous.

––Das Williams

As a community, it is time for people living in the Carpinteria area to wake-up and get informed. Do they want to live in a safe, healthy community, or do they want a dark, pot cloud hanging over their area, where money is the only thing that matters?

Time to push back. Marijuana is still illegal on a national level.

Community needs useful information

My heart goes out to all people and animals as we survive this fire. It is becoming more and more obvious that cox cable has put our community in a black hole bereft of local news coverage. We have none. The local Fox “news” channel with news ladies in cocktail frocks, loaded with 80 percent commercials is unacceptable and insufficient in times of emergencies and disasters. I put out a plea to our city leaders, county leaders and Cox customers—how can we get Cox to carry the award winning local KTLA5, which has been carrying live fire updates all day, into the night? As a community monopoly, Cox has certain duties for the good and security of the community. This situation has been going on too long and needs to change!

Presidential gratitude: genuine and sarcastic

Thank you, President Obama. Your policies jump-started economic recovery, and you fought an uphill battle against a Republican congress that vowed to obstruct you even if it negatively affected this country. You passed the Affordable Healthcare Act, which insured millions of Americans and has now become part of a tax bill which will result in millions of Americans losing their healthcare (thank you, Trump). You passed the DoddFrank Act which protects consumers and taxpayers from abusive and predatory practices by lenders and Wall Street. It imposes taxes and regulations which Trump is seeking to repeal, thereby giving free reign to the corporations and large businesses that collapsed our financial structure and whose greed for profits has no limits (thank you, Trump).

Now homelessness, gun deaths, drug addiction, hate crimes by neo-nazis and white nationalists, violence against people of color are on the rise and all either

ignored or encouraged and applauded in rallies, thank you, Trump. You sold us out to the Russians for money to pay debts and lawsuits and to build a tower in Moscow (30 pieces of Russian silver).

Thank you, Trump. You mistreat women, including your wives. You are a selfproclaimed sexual predator and have endorsed a pedophile for the Senate, thank you, Trump. Your cheap red hat’s logo should be a hammer and sickle! America is no longer considered the world’s leading Democracy, thank you, Trump.

Vetting the holidays

This question was asked recently: “Why was there no program for Veterans Day at the Carpinteria Cemetery?” There is some confusion as to the differences between Memorial Day and Veterans Day. For many years, the Carpinteria Cemetery has been the host of a Memorial Day program. The key word is “host.”

Many others, most recently local veteran Peter Bie, organize, schedule and produce this wonderful and patriotic event.

It is not uncommon to attract 250 to 300 citizens at the cemetery. The cemetery has always been honored to provide a place for this program, but that is the extent of our involvement, others do all the work.

So why no Veterans Day program?

A distinguished World War II veteran once told me, “Veterans Day is about the living, and Memorial Day is about the deceased.” Veterans Day honors all who have served in our Armed Forces, in war and in peace time, especially the living.

Memorial Day honors those who gave the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

If someone wanted to put on another program for Veterans Day, we would be honored to host. In the meantime, there are many ways to honor our living veterans on Veterans Day. We all know many of them; maybe it’s as simple as taking a Veteran out to a meal and thanking them for their service.

We find it discouraging that the City charges $24,972 for a new business to purchase a “future” parking space. No wonder we have so few new businesses opening in our town. And yet the City is planning on replacing 114 existing parking places (including 16 handicap and two electric charge spaces) downtown with a hotel built along the railroad tracks in a tsunami evacuation zone. Their replacement lot behind The Spot is half the size and will no way replace the parking available now. A fine example of our current lack of parking was just this past weekend with the “grand opening” of the community garden. All of the surrounding streets were crammed with parked cars. It is imperative that Carpinteria provides more free parking in the beach and downtown area.

And speaking of parking, how about finding parking for all the cars parked along the south end of Carpinteria Avenue that obstruct the views of the recently purchased bluffs property? Instead of seeing the bluffs, we now see nothing but cars.

One possible solution is for the City of Carpinteria to purchase a parcel of farmland and convert it to a parking lot with shuttle transportation to the industrial parks as well as the downtown corridor and beach area.

Save our National Monuments

In yet another destructive move that defies any logic, President Trump is seeking to drastically shrink or change the usage of 10 of our National Monuments. These include Cascade-Siskiyou, Gold Butte, Bears Ears, Grand StaircaseEscalante, Katahdin Woods and Waters, Northeast Canyons and Seamounts, Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks, Pacific Remote Islands, Rio Grande del Norte and the Rose Atoll.

These are places of incredible natural beauty and home to many endangered or threatened species. These lands belong to all of us Americans to preserve, protect and enjoy, especially Native Americans.

In the case of the Utah National Monuments this was done for coal mining interests. The use of coal is totally outdated and a terrible polluter. Other National Monuments were chosen for logging, fishing, mining and oil and gas drilling interests. This is a huge land grab in the name of special interests, polluters and profiteers that must be stopped!

Halos Pitchforks

&

Scammers

On Nov. 20 at approximately 7:50 p.m., a deputy was dispatched to a residence on Carnation Place on a report of suspicious circumstances with a man in a pick-up truck. Noticing a truck that matched the description given, the reporting deputy initiated a traffic stop on Carpinteria Avenue. The reporting deputy noted that the man driving appeared “scared and upset” when the deputy approached him.

When the deputy asked the man if everything was OK, the man spoke very quietly and said “they” kidnapped his daughter. The reporting deputy’s partner asked the man if he had spoken directly to his daughter, and the man told him that the people who called him claimed to have his daughter, and told him not to hang up and not to call the police. The deputies called the man’s daughter on their department-issued iPhone and left a message asking her to call back as soon as possible. The daughter called back soon after, and deputies had her speak with her father to confirm that she had not been kidnapped. The man said that people had called him twice from Mexico, and a man claimed to be part of a street gang and told the man to go to the nearest ATM and take out as much cash as he could.

The daughter told her father that she would stop by his home later in the evening to assure him that she was OK. Deputies asked the man to share information about the incident as it is likely that the group will try to scam others in a similar way.

And right back in again

On Nov. 21 at approximately 7:10 p.m. a deputy saw a man walking westbound on Via Real wearing dark pants, a dark hooded sweatshirt and a dark backpack.

The deputy noted that the man went into two convenience stores in the area, walking in and leaving within one minute in both stores. The man covered his face with a black T-shirt and would not make eye contact with the deputy when he walked past.

Following the man to a motel, the deputy asked if he could speak with him.

The man kept changing the subject, the deputy reported, and would not answer the deputy’s questions. Shining a light in the man’s eyes, the deputy stated that

the man’s pupils did not react, and that his pulse was about 118 beats per minute, suggestive of meth use. The man was arrested for being under the influence of a controlled substance, and the deputy found a jail release paper from 12:30 a.m. the same day among the man’s possessions. The man also had a broken lightbulb with burnt meth-like residue in his backpack. The man was returned to Santa Barbara County Jail.

Not the window’s fault

On Nov. 21 at approximately 1:25 a.m. a man’s ex-girlfriend broke the window of the man’s room on Dorrance Way while arguing with him and his current girlfriend. The 25-year-old woman left the scene, but was contacted and arrested by a deputy some time later. When she was brought back to the house, the woman admitted to having been there, but denied breaking the window. The woman had a cut on her hand consistent with broken glass. The man’s mother filled out a citizen’s arrest form, and the woman was transported to Santa Barbara County Jail.

Same old story

On Nov. 22 at approximately 11:15 p.m. a deputy conducted a traffic stop on a sedan for a broken rear tail light that he observed as the vehicle left Casitas Pass Road and entered Highway 101 southbound. Upon contacting the driver of the vehicle—a 35-year-old woman—the deputy noticed that her pupils were constricted and did not respond to light.

The woman’s pulse was elevated, which is another symptom of illegal drug use consistent with meth. A number of orange syringe caps were visible throughout the vehicle and the deputy arrested the woman for being under the influence of a controlled substance. He also found a meth pipe with burnt residue and the woman was transported to Santa Barbara County Jail.

Avoiding the Xmas spin cycle

Cvn

the summerland shore f r a n d av i s The LA Times holiday gift guide landed on my doorstep long before Thanksgiving. A big push to set my toe on the mark, ready for the great shopping race. The 28-page guide filled me with growing wonder. Did I actually know anyone who might like a copper pineapple for their ice-cold tiki drink?

How about a hot sauce holster for a chili-loving friend? I did find myself studying the Day of the Dead corkscrew and the dog-a-day dessert plates—a different canine portrait on every plate.

But I didn’t add them to my list. And as much as I love my pooches, they won’t be receiving any dog wine, another suggestion.

Nor will my grandkids be getting a $3,800 Hermès skateboard. Or “Game of Thrones” dolls or mermaid shimmer spray. I thought the packable boat for $1,299 would be a great gift for the adventurous soul if you had a worthy recipient in mind and wanted to spend that kind of money.

My favorite “experience” gift was the chance to run with wolves, a 90-minute trek through the forest with an “ambassador wolf.” At a mere $300 per person, it’s what’s called a “curated experience.”

I’m not sure what’s being curated, which usually applies to museum items. Maybe the wolf? Maybe the indigenous animal species you’re supposed to see along the way? I can imagine them—squirrels, lizards, foxes neatly posed in their natural habitats like the stuffed critters behind glass in natural history museums. Except live! What could be better?

As much as I enjoy ogling the effusive abundance of goodies, I’m doing a lot of online shopping this year due to energy limitations. I can’t seem to get through fall without coming down with a malady of some kind. Last year, pneumonia, the year before, giardia, (still don’t where I picked that up). This year an undiagnosed malaise that has me light-headed and fatigued. Which is turning me into a Scrooge (one of my favorite characters).

Maybe I should follow my oncerumored relative Florence Nightingale’s example and just take to my bed for next few years. Florence, for all her heroism and ceiling-shattering work, spent her last 15 years in bed—where she continued to make innovations in healthcare, women’s work and statistical analysis, among other things.

There’s a flock of Nightingales on my mother’s side of the family. All of whom claimed to be related to the aristocratic and illustrious Florence. I even had a great aunt named Florence Nightingale.

The claims were bogus, of course, finally proven by a genealogical search.

Florence herself wasn’t even a Nightingale. Her father, William Shore, inherited the Nightingale name and arms from an uncle. Our Nightingales were from Lancashire (probably poor weavers), and I have copies of an 1841 passenger ship’s list that shows 14 Nightingales aboard.

Some of those Nightingales figured pretty heavily in my childhood memories of Christmas past.

My mom had a powerful homing instinct, so every Christmas, no matter

where we lived, we made a pilgrimage to the Central Valley town where she grew up. This involved long night-time drives along two-lane roads through little towns, Colusa, Meridian, Willets. They were shining little oases, a lighted tree downtown, colored lights in a few windows, glimpsed briefly then swallowed by darkness. They filled my little-kid heart with delight.

Simpler times, as the saying goes.

Exchanges of divinity fudge, colored fondant, the pies my mom was famous for. For me, a doll every Christmas, once a bicycle. Early memories get imprinted, setting a standard for what seems right— a journey picked out by headlights, a small town’s colored lights against a field of darkness, arrival at a warm house, bustling aunts, a tinseled tree, smell of pine and cinnamon, a piano playing.

Christmas is such a potent evoker of nostalgia. Those of us with sweet memories harken back to our childhoods and wish for something similar. I remain skeptical of white lights and glitzy photos of perfect white table settings glittering with silver. Colored lights rule. Bold fronts to the winter darkness. Cheery. Evocative.

Leafing through the gift possibilities in that Times supplement made me

appreciate the Vermont Country Store catalog, “Purveyors of the practical and hard-to-find since 1946.” Perfect. After the pallid, but hip, holiday décor featured in the Times and Sunset, I like to leaf through that catalog just for a hit of color.

There’s all that stuff from my childhood—peppermint bark, gumdrops and hard candy nuggets in shiny tins. My eyes rove over bright red merino socks, flannel sheets printed with red birds, plaid nightgowns, musical tops, pine soap on a rope, bubble lights and those little caroler candles with the wicks on the top of their heads. At no other time of the year do mince tarts, figgy pudding, fruitcakes, marshmallow snowballs and maple sugar leaves sound appealing.

For me the catalog provides a temporary relief from pretty much everything going on in the world these days. Headlines of shootings, high crimes and investigations, bombings and terrorism and school lock-downs, starving refugees and drownings, fallen heroes. You can only take so much. Especially during what’s supposed to be a season of gladness and celebration.

A sucker for the Dickens Christmas, I long for the familiar trappings—nippy,

fleece-wearing days, snow and frosted holly berries, bells, a big tree, carolers, wool socks, a warm fireplace. Here on the South Coast, we miss out on much of that.

The one best thing I’ll enjoy is time with my family, all together in one place, flinging wrapping paper, eating, laughing, playing games, taking beach walks with dogs. Gladness and celebration enough.

SCA holiday party

The Summerland Citizens Association’s annual holiday fete will take place Wednesday, Dec. 13 (happy Hanukkah!) at the Summerland Winery from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Join friends and neighbors for this popular holiday event, with a glass of wine and a slice of Rusty’s pizza for $10.

One good thing: A visit to the Boy Scout Christmas tree lot. The deliriously piney smell is maybe the closest you can get to walk in the forest.

Fran Davis is an award-winning writer and freelance editor whose work appears in magazines, print and online journals, anthologies and travel books. She has lived in Summerland most of her life.

Volunteering for the joy of it

mission possible barbara dunlap If you’re new to Carpinteria and want to volunteer, talk to David and Valerie Powdrell. The couple’s infectious enthusiasm will convince you to join in right away.

“There are so many opportunities,” Valerie says. “What a fabulous way to meet people and get started in the community!”

“We’re going to grab you to be a volunteer,” David adds. “We’ll find a spot that brings you joy. Doors will open—it’s that way with all the organizations here.”

The Powdrells know of what they speak. They’re integral members of the Carpinteria arts Center—Valerie helps events run smoothly and successfully, and David is co-chair of the board and chair of the multimillion-dollar capital campaign.

Their efforts and energy go to other causes as well. Valerie volunteered in education for several years, and she now contributes time to Carpinteria Beautiful and santa Barbara Channelkeeper. David counsels stroke survivors and volunteers at a junior wheelchair sports camp. In past years, he coordinated the Talent showcase fundraiser and served on the board of organizations including Friends of the library and Cottage rehabilitation Hospital. He was honored as Carpinterian of the Year in 2015.

Here’s more about how—and why— this joyful couple stays so active.

The Carpinteria Arts Center is an especially important part of your lives.

Please describe your vision for the center.

David: We’re trying to make it an arts center for the entire community. It’s the place

to study all the arts—not just painting but drama, poetry, dance, music. our goal is to make it one of the best small-town arts centers in america.

What are your duties at the center?

David: as co-chair of the board, I work with government agencies (for the arts center’s new expansion), write a lot of thank you cards to donors, volunteers and members, meet with committee chairs to make sure we’re firing on all cylinders, do some financial planning and cash flow analysis to confirm sustainability—and generally celebrate the exciting future of the Carpinteria arts Center with our amazing board of directors and our incredible staff.

For the capital campaign, I attend a lot of one-on-one meetings to talk about what we’re doing and why. We’ve found that’s the most effective way to raise money.

(The campaign has raised $2.9 million of its $3.1 million goal.) For the final $200,000, we want $5 checks as well as $50,000 checks. The idea is for everyone to take ownership of the arts center.

Valerie: I help out by setting up fundraising brunches at the arts center, serving beverages at our summer concert series and helping at house parties. I do whatever they need me to do.

Valerie serves on the committee for Carpinteria Beautiful’s annual Home & Garden Tour. What does that entail, and why do you enjoy it?

Valerie: This Carpinteria Beautiful committee is a small group that works from January to april finding homes and organizing the tour. The committee has put on this extravaganza for 20 years to help fund everything from murals and fountains to the ping-pong table at the end of linden. My participation has a lot to do with my motto: Do things that bring you joy. I love architecture, art, decorating, gardening—it’s all there.

David, who had a stroke in 2004, serves as a peer counselor for stroke survivors

David and Valerie Powdrell both dedicate hundreds of hours annually to local volunteer work. They also clean up well, don’t you think? draiser that takes place in april.

and their families at Cottage Rehabilitation Hospital. Please describe what you do.

Please talk about the annual Junior Wheelchair Sports Camp at UCSB. David: It’s my favorite week of the year. These kids have every reason to be angry or sad because they’re in wheelchairs, but instead they’re out kayaking, swimming, scuba diving and playing tennis and soccer. I photograph them, and they can share those photos with their family members. I mostly do the photography, but I’ve also helped with logistics for the past eight years.

David: While they’re still in the hospital, I help them through the initial shock of it all. after my stroke, I wish I could have talked with someone who had survived a similar episode to ask questions, share experiences and set a plan on moving forward. I get to be that guy now, and it’s a powerful experience for me and, hopefully, for the patients and their families.

Valerie volunteers for the Santa Barbara Channelkeeper. What does that organization do, and how do you help?

Can you sum up why you—and others—volunteer in Carp?

David: This little town is magical.

Everyone seems to be doing something good for the world. There are so many opportunities and so many people taking advantage of that. When you volunteer, you get more out of it than you give. It feels like a gift.

Valerie: This nonprofit is a member of Waterkeeper alliance, an international organization that helps keep waterways clean. Channelkeeper works to protect and restore the santa Barbara Channel and its watersheds. I help organize the Blue Water Ball, the group’s annual fun-

Thornberry to crunch his last budget

CVN

school notes

By Peter Dugré

Walk into City of Carpinteria Administrative Services Director John Thornberry’s office and there are telltale signs that he’s been there for 27 years. The floppy disks on the shelf— both the 3 ½ inch size and the older 5 ¼ inch— testify to the technological changes that have occurred since Thornberry joined the city in 1990. He’ll retire in January following a mostly quiet career behind the scenes balancing the books, investing funds and helping decision-makers understand the financial basis on which they can frame policy.

“I’ve been around long enough to see two recessions. Those are hard times, but the city council has been very stable and prudent and fiscally conservative,” Thornberry said.

The word stable also comes up when describing Thornberry. Finance Supervisor Monique Epley described him as an “awesome boss” and “reliable and dependable.” She said, “We’re going to miss his stability.” In addition to his ability to get payroll out on time and audits completed, she said his characteristic dry wit and sarcasm will be hard to replace.

Thornberry earned his master’s degree in finance at University of Southern California and worked in hospitality before joining the public sector. His background in finance has made him an asset to the city as he is able to look at the big picture in projecting budgets and conducting cost studies all while doing the accounting, which he said was not originally his area of expertise.

At the Nov. 27 city council meeting, Thornberry delivered bad news about the state of the budget in the near term. Expenditures are outpacing revenues, due both to capital projects and rising pension costs. Thornberry said he hopes to have a replacement before he’s officially out the door so that person will be able to fill his shoes as the financial wizard working behind the scenes to deliver the fullest possible picture of where money can be saved to confront budget issues.

Thornberry said that when he joined the city, “we had all these IBMs all strung together like Christmas lights. If one went out, they all went out.”

He eventually became the IT guy.

When the city had a police force, he said, there was a lieutenant who took care of the computers, but when the police force dissolved, he became the computer guy— he injects a dry humor into the statement, a comment on the size of a city staff that makes its accountant an IT guy.

The department he manages has just 2 ½ full time equivalent staff, so he said there are busy times ahead for the person who will learn his job. The department has been known for its excellence, having won awards for both financial reporting and its budget every year since the late 1990s.

“That’s what I work for all year long,” he said.

Thornberry said he has no immediate or elaborate plans for retirement. He considers himself an amateur theologian and might hunker down to pursue his interests wherever they lead.

Epley said, “We’re going to wholeheartedly miss him. He’s one of the longtimers, so it’ll be a hard adjustment, but we know he’s moving on to a new chapter. I wish him the best.”

Thornberry said he’ll mostly miss the people with whom he’s worked, and he complimented the professionalism of city staff at every level.

CHS offers holiday poinsettias

Cai sisters take it to top 16 in CIF

BY TREVOR THORPE, CATE TENNIS COACH

Jackie and Carol Cai’s fairytale run in CIF Individuals play came to a close on Nov. 29 in the round of 16. Despite coming up short, it was all smiles for the Cate School sisters, as they pushed their more-experienced opponents and proved beyond doubt that they are one of the best doubles teams in the strongest high school section in the country.

The Cate duo faced tournament number two-seed Emily Ackerman, a senior, and Chloe Bendetti, a junior, from Oaks

Christian. Bendetti was no stranger to the big show, having reached the finals of last year’s tournament, and Ackerman will play for Cal Poly SLO next year, an NCAA D1 program. Both players are ranked in the top 150 players in the country for their classes.

Experience was on display as the Oaks Christian team jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the first set. Serves to the corners and crisp volleys punctuated nearly every point, and to the casual viewer, the match may have appeared like a formality.

Unfazed, Jackie and Carol battled back by winning the next four games and had

some opportunities to draw even in the 10th game before a missed poach ended the set.

The surprise was palpable on the faces of the Oaks Christian coaches and fans sitting courtside, and frustrations became visible on-court as well.

After dropping the first set 4-6, the sisters jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the second, with a quick break of Ackerman’s serve and a textbook hold of Carol’s serve.

Bendetti held a tough service game with a clutch corner ace to stem the bleeding and again the momentum shifted.

The Oaks Christian pairing hit a hot

streak and rattled off four straight games to regain control of the match, as the sisters had a dip in energy. The final few games were fairly evenly contested, but the second set went to Oaks Christian 6-3.

While this was the last stand for Jackie, a senior, Carol will have two more opportunities to improve upon this year’s performance. As has been the case in recent years, every season at Cate has brought a new level of success, and with returning players like Carol and the knowledge passed down by outgoing players like Jackie, the team looks primed for another great season in 2018.

November 30 – The Carpinteria High School girls soccer team dropped a non-league match to Oxnard, 4-2. The Warriors went down 1-0 within 90 seconds of the game on a Yellow Jackets corner kick that turned into a goal. Zahea Hamadi evened the score off a great ball from Aisha Duarte, and we went into halftime knotted at one apiece ... and feeling good about our game,” said Carpinteria coach Charles Bryant.

Oxnard then scored three goals in the second half to go up, 4-1. “Our goalkeeper, Laura Valdez, was awesome all night, and there was nothing she could do on any of these goals,” said Bryant. Aly Springer put in a penalty kick to make it, 4-2.

December 2 – The Carpinteria High School girls soccer team got its first win of the year, beating St. Bonaventure in a non-league game, 2-0. “Aisha Duarte put us on the scoreboard in the first half with a great solo run and blast from a tough angle,” said Warrior coach Charles Bryant. Carpinteria then widened the lead about midway through the second half off a Cydney Smolnikar finish to make it 2-0. “For the second game in a row, I was really pleased with how we played,” said Bryant. “For the most part, we did a great job being patient and playing simple.” Carpinteria is now 1-3 overall.

Boys soccer

November 30 – The Carpinteria High School boys soccer team on the first of backto-back games, played to a 0-0 against Pacifica. Senior goalkeeper Christian Estrada had 13 saves to record his first shutout of the young season. “Our back line, led by senior center-back Abel Gutierrez with a supporting cast of Diego Perez, Alex Ramirez and Solomon Nahooikaika had a strong performance …,” said Warriors coach Leonardo Quintero. Other notable performances came from Jose Jimenez, Vincent Gonzalez, Luis Garcia and Gabe Barajas. “I asked the boys to carry over their hard work on the training field to the playing field tonight, and I believe that’s exactly what they did,” said Quintero.

December 1 – The Carpinteria High School boys soccer team beat Oxnard, 3-0 to remain unbeaten on the year. Sophomore Marco Villarreal in his first start of the year, scored in the 16th minute of the first half after the Oxnard goalkeeper coughed up the initial shot from Jose Jimenez to take a 1-0 lead. In the 35th minute of the first half, Luis Garcia found Saul Hernandez, who put it past the Oxnard keeper to make it 2-0 heading into halftime. In the 53rd minute, Alex Ramirez found an open Jose Jimenez, who drove the ball down the middle, split the defense and slipped the ball past a diving Yellow Jacket keeper to give the Warriors a 3-0 lead. “Other key players that have a big impact game after game were Abel Gutierrez, Alberto Arroyo, Gabe Barajas, Vincent Gonzalez and Eddie Mendoza, along with senior goalkeeper Anthony Peña, who finished with five saves on the night,” said Carpinteria coach Leo Quintero. The Warriors overall record is 1-0-2 with a Tri-Valley League record of 0-0-0.

Boys soccer kicks off strong

By Alonzo orozco

Every season, Carpinteria High School boys soccer coach Leo Quintero schedules the toughest non-league opponents that can be found in Southern California to begin the year. The schedule typically includes schools like Bellflower, Dos Pueblos and Channel Islands. As a result, the Warriors often start Tri-Valley League (TVL) play in search of a win. But this year’s team, in spite of the usual, challenging schedule, has yet to notch a loss.

Following a season-opening tie against Santa Ynez, Quintero’s squad not only earned another draw against Pacifica, they ended up shutting out Oxnard to start the season at 1-0-2. “It feels different; it looks different, and I’m really excited and happy for the guys. And I’m excited for the season,” said Quintero, giving a lot of credit to assistant Jerry Rodriguez, who introduced a conditioning program for the players in the offseason which factors into the team’s early success.

The Warriors’ defense has dictated the pace of games so far. The team has surrendered only one goal in three games.

They’re led by senior Abel Gutierrez, who moved from right back to the middle this season. “He’s been our rock, our foundation, this year,” explained Quintero.

Gutierrez will be flanked by juniors Edgar Martinez and Alberto Arroyo for support.

Carpinteria has also benefitted from the play of goalkeepers Christian Estrada and Anthony Pena, who have both been effective. Twin brothers Luke and Solomon Nahooikaika-Anderson should also see some playing time.

On offense, Luis Garcia, a four-year

varsity performer, returns for his senior season at the center-mid spot. Gabe Barajas also returns to accompany him at the center mid-position. The Warriors have also received an extra boost from the return of junior Jose Jimenez who had to sit out last year because of personal reasons. “He’s just one of those players who knows the game, and knows how to execute when required,” said Quintero.

Jimenez played on the varsity team his freshman year. Vincent Gonzalez also returns as a dangerous striker.

With 18 players, this team is the largest in Quintero’s six-year history. “A lot of these guys that are on the bench, deserve a starting position, but unfortunately it’s only 11 against 11,” said Quintero. Eddie Mendoza has been moved to the right wing, and Alex Ramirez should once again be a factor. Salud Hernandez, a junior brought up from the JV team last year, has quietly excelled on the field, and Adrian Gonzalez and Issac Benitez, two JV players from the practice squad, look to have bright futures as well.

Fillmore and Santa Paula figure to once again be at the top of the TVL, but Cate and Grace Brethren could surprise a few people. “I believe that in every game the best team wins—it’s 80 minutes of unpredictable soccer,” explained Quintero.

“You can always set a game plan, and things don’t work out that you hope for,” he added.

The Warriors are scheduled to play this Saturday, Dec. 9 at 1 p.m. against Dos Pueblos, at Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium. The Thomas Fire has canceled several athletic events at CHS, and it could affect this one as well.

It can be challenging to listen to someone you completely disagree with. But if you really listen, you might learn something. It is OK to disagree, as long as we honestly listen to each other and ask questions to try to understand each others’ viewpoints.

Girls basketball

November 30 – The Cate School girls basketball team outdueled Providence 37 to 28 in their first game of the season on their home court. “Freshmen Lily Zanze, Deborah Brittain, Jasmine Ross and Bella Lucenta all saw game time, and put forth great efforts,” said Ram coach Amy Venditta. Junior Sarah Polowczak had eight steals and four points. Maya Blattberg finished with 12 points, while senior Maisie Oswald had four points. “Starter Millie Todd played incredibly smart and aggressive basketball, so much so that she was accidentally tackled by a Providence player while sprinting for a loose ball and suffered a game-ending shoulder injury,” said Venditta. Sophomores Piper Brooks and Kenzie Davidson contributed one and two points, respectively.

TRAVEL

CVN goes to Monterey Bay

Karen Burns, left, and Heather Giacone hit the road north this fall for a short trip to South Lake Tahoe, then to Monterey via Yosemite, with a stop in Castroville—the artichoke capital of the world—before returning home to Carpinteria.

They enjoyed one night Monterey Plaza Hotel and Spa, which Burns said “was not long enough.” Sadly, Giacone’s dad, who was on the trip, did not make the photo. The group did, however, bring a copy of the Coastal View News to share on those long highway miles.

Jennifer Allen and Nancy Stevens, both of Carpinteria, took the bronze medal in the Womens 55+ 4.5 division in the USAPA National Pickleball Championships in Casa Grande, Ariz. in November.
