Toro Canyon oil clean-up completed

Santa Barbara County and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s (CDFW) Office of Spill Prevention and Response have completed their coordinated effort of an oil cleanup at Toro Canyon Creek northeast of Summerland, according to a statement from the county Public Works department. The coordinated efforts began with work to control a leak in a pipe connected to an oil and water separator facility at the site on July 6, which was contained by mid-July. Cleanup within the creek was completed on Aug. 27. An estimated 420 to 630 gallons of oil that traveled approximately 300 yards were removed from the channel with absorbents, pressure washing, vacuuming and disposal of oiled vegetation. The next phase will be extended for three additional months for occasional monitoring and maintenance of protective measures in place. In addition, the county will work with the CDFW’s Lake

and Streambed Alteration Program and other state agencies to remediate portions of the creek bed and bank that were affected by the spill. The CDFW Oiled Wildlife Care Network team recovered 92 oiled frogs in the area, which were cleaned and cared for by the Santa Barbara Wildlife Care Network. After receiving clean bills of health, all of the frogs were returned on Aug. 27. Deceased animals collected include 17 small birds, 13 bats and a squirrel. The oil is from natural seepage emerging from a well three miles north of Highway 101 that the Occidental Mining and Petroleum Company built in 1882. The Environmental Protection Agency retroﬁtted the site to prevent seepage in the 1990s by building an oil and water separator facility at the well. The county has monitored and maintained that facility since 2009. The county is working with federal and state oﬃcials on long-term system improvements.

Wildlife Care Network cares for Carpinteria frogs after oil leak

Over 90 frogs were recovered from Toro Canyon Creek after the July 6 oil incident and were cared for by the Santa Barbara Wildlife Network (SBWCN) before being released safely back into their natural habitat. Working under the direction of, and as a member organization of California Department of Fish and Wildlife’s Oiled Wildlife Care Network (OWCN), whose team recovered the oiled frogs from the site, the SBWCN team washed and provided supportive care to all the frogs recovered from the spill. Frogs arrived to SBWCN in stages beginning Thursday, Aug. 12. Some of SBWCN’s animal care staff, including veterinarian Dr. Avery Berkowitz, shifted gears to dedicate a majority of their time to the frogs. This care included washing the frogs, providing regular exams, distributing meals of tiny crickets, fruit flies and fly larvae, and ensuring that the frogs had a safe, clean and quiet space to recover. “As a partner of Oiled Wildlife Care Network, we are always on standby to step in whenever help is needed,” said Berkowitz, SBWCN’s director of Animal Care. “80 additional patients is a big influx for our team, but we’re rallying together to make sure these frogs receive the care they need.” The animals in care were primarily made up of Baja California tree frogs, but also included a few California tree frogs and one fence lizard. All three of these species are native to the Southern California area. Last year, SBWCN only received one amphibian out of more than 4,000 patients. This incident comes just a few months before the completion of SBWCN’s new Wildlife Hospital. This 5,400-square-foot facility will be the first of its kind in the Santa Barbara and Ventura areas and will provide critical upgrades to SBWCN’s current facilities. This new building will feature enhanced oil response capabilities, including newer and larger washing stations to care for oiled animals. “Currently, most oiled animals we receive need to be transferred to a partner organization over two hours away,” said Ariana Katovich, executive director of SBWCN. “After the new Wildlife Hospital is completed, we’ll be able to wash and rehabilitate hundreds of more oiled

County surveys residents on pandemic mental health support

Santa Barbara County has launched a survey for residents on mental health support services during the Covid-19 pandemic, seeking public input on how the pandemic has altered mental health needs within the county. The survey process is led by the Santa Barbara County Department of Behavioral Wellness and the Community Wellness Team. The survey emphasizes that Covid-19 has had a “serious impact” on mental health. The survey takes 10 to 15 minutes to complete and is available in English and Spanish at recoverysbc.org/ covidrecovery. The survey will also be administered by service providers to populations who may not have electronics. The survey is funded by federal American Rescue Plan Act funding, to help assess mental health needs stemming from the Covid-19 pandemic. “Isolation, quarantine, remote learning, business impacts and physical distancing has impacted everyone; some more than others,” Suzanne Grimmesey of the Department of Behavioral Wellness said in a press release. “It is critical that necessary supports to address the unique impacts of Covid-19 are in place in a timely manner to help our community through recovery.” For more information, contact Grimmesey at suzkirk@sbcbwell.org.

Save Bailard Farm petition nears 1,800 signatures

BY EVELYN SPENCE

The grassroots campaign to prevent Bailard Farm – a seven-acre rural property located at 1001–1003 Bailard Ave. – from being developed has collected nearly 1,800 signatures, as locals continue to campaign against the proposed development, arguing that it goes against Carpinteria’s General Plan and the best interests of the city. Carpinteria Valley Association (CVA) president, Mike Wondolowski, whose group has been one of several leading the charge against the proposed development, confirmed that as of Sept. 7, the petitioners have collected 1,674 via online petition, and over 100 hardcopy signatures. “CVA is working as part of a coalition of concerned residents and neighbors,” Wondolowski said. “That group has been gathering signatures on an informal petition with online and hard copy for the public to express opposition to this project as proposed.” The property is located just outside city limits – a point of frustration for Carpinteria City Council. At an April 2021 meeting, councilmembers voiced strong concern about how little control over the project they had. Because the property is located just outside city limits, control over its development falls under the control of the Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors, even though the entrance and exits to the proposed residential development would go through the city of Carpinteria. In an attempt to have some control over the development, the city council voted in April to move forward with memorandum of understanding (MOU) negotiations with Santa Barbara County and developers. Wondolowski added that the group was “encouraged” by the lack of support

for the project shown by the council, and said the group is working to inform the public about the project. He added that he hopes to hear more from the council soon regarding the MOU negotiations. “(We need to) keep the public informed about what this proposal means and what are the effects it would have, the impacts to expanding the urban boundary and eliminating the ag buffer, and the fact that it would really not address housing

shelter and that the complex would have more parking spots than required to help with a crowded parking situation – an area of concern for those opposing the project. Wondolowski expressed concern about the project’s impact on Carpinteria, and the fact that the property itself would have to be rezoned. “(This project) rezones property that is being used the way it is zoned. It’s

“(We need to) keep the public informed about what this proposal means and what are the effects it would have, the impacts to expanding the urban boundary and eliminating the ag buffer, and the fact that it would really not address housing affordability in Carpinteria whatsoever.”

—Mike Wondolowski

affordability in Carpinteria whatsoever,” he added. The property is currently owned by the Carpinteria Unified School District and is occupied by some single-family homes and agricultural row crops; it is currently zoned for rural use, at one residence per 3 acres. The proposed development, a three-story residential complex with 132 market-rate units and 41 “affordable housing” units, would be a high-density urban development with 25 residents per one acre. Steve Goggia, community development director, confirmed at an April city council meeting that a small portion of the complex would also serve as a homeless

(already) being used to its maximum potential. The project proposes to change that, and to impact the area of Carpinteria… without a comprehensive analysis,” he said. Other concerns about the project expressed by locals, both at council meetings and in petition comments, include destroying the farmland, a lack of control on the city’s end and the effect on the city’s long-term plans. Wondolowski said the next time the project is brought up at a city council meeting, the CVA and other groups will be there for public comment. For more information, visit savebailardfarm.com.

New Covid-19 recommendations for K-12 schools, county sees 39,500 cases

The Centers for Disease Control has announced updated recommendations for K-12 schools operating during the Covid-19 pandemic, again emphasizing that all students should get tested for Covid-19 when they present with Covid-19 symptoms. Staff members and students who have Covid-19 symptoms should not return to in-person instruction until at least 24 hours have passed since a fever was present, symptoms have improved, and they can provide a negative Covid-19 test or show that at least 10 days have passed since symptoms first appeared. The California Department of Public

Health will reassess prior to Nov. 1, 2021 whether the mask requirements and recommendations need to be updated. Currently, all masks are required while K-12 students are indoors and are optional for outdoor settings. Those who are exempted from wearing a face covering due to a medical condition, the department said, must wear a “non-restrictive alternative” such as a face shield. Unvaccinated students who come into close contact with someone who has Covid-19 – and were wearing masks at the time – can continue to attend school, as long as they remain asymptomatic,

wear a mask, receive two Covid-19 tests and refrain from extracurricular activities, which include sports. Currently in Santa Barbara County, all residents must wear masks while in indoor, public settings. All should be following regular hygiene protocols and regularly wash their hands. Between August 27 and Sept. 2, the county hit 518,025 total doses of Covid-19 vaccines: 263,039 first doses, 228,856 second doses and 21.932 single doses. The county also saw 818 new cases of Covid-19 within that same week, with 709 active cases, six new deaths and 78

hospitalizations for a total of 39,500 cases and 481 total deaths. As of Sept. 2, 55.3% of the county is fully vaccinated. It is recommended that all residents, if eligible, get vaccinated. To learn where to get vaccinated within the county, visit publichealthsbc.org/vaccine. To get tested for Covid-19, find a site at publichealthsbc.org/testing. These sites are only offering the PCR test. For more information from the Santa Barbara County Public Health Department, call 211 and press #4 or email the county at PHDDOC.

Horse rider calls for safer passage on Hwy 192 BY DEBRA HERRICK

On Aug. 31, when all of Los Padres National Forest was closed due to fire danger, an unintended danger arose: unsafe passage for horses and their riders in Toro Canyon. This is a first – all the highland trails are closed in the park and adjacent areas, including Romero, Franklin, Coldsprings and others in the Montecito, Summerland and Carpinteria Valley. Now, horses are being ridden on lowland trails maintained by the Montecito Trail Foundation, which extend from Montecito to Carpinteria. Horse groom Anne Scott, who caretakes for eight horses in the Carpinteria Valley, said that besides the closures, there’s also road construction blocking trails, so she and others have taken to using the Toro Canyon trailhead which is just below Highway 192 on a blind curve. To get to the trailhead, Scott said they have to traverse roughly 150 yards on Highway 192. “The trail to nowhere, we call it,” Scott said. “It connects us from the polo grounds to Toro Canyon. It’s a major thorough fare.” But getting across Hwy 192 is dangerous for people and horses, said Scott. Portions of the highway have no shoulder leading most people to ride their horses against traffic. Additionally, visibility is low on the narrow mountain curves. “It’s a completely blind curve and people drive around it at up to 60 to 70 mph consistently,” Scott said. “People drive so fast down the road and they are not responding to the hand gestures we give to slow down – or yelling.” There are laws in place to protect horses and their riders, such as drivers must slow down or completely stop when they see a horse. But not all drivers take head. “It’s very dangerous because horses are flight animals,” Scott said. “So, I have taken to riding in the center of the lane, so people see us. I wear really bright clothing. Neon pink. Orange. People just don’t understand that horses are a flight animal and going past us at 40 mph or higher puts us at extreme danger.”

With all the highland trails closed in Los Padres National Forest and adjacent areas throughout the Carpinteria Valley, riders like Anne Scott, front, have had to seek a dangerous route to a trailhead across Toro Canyon’s Hwy 192. “You’ve got horses with steel shoes on asphalt. Horses that when they get spooked buck, rear, spin, bolt. You have 1,200 pounds of fearful animal below you when these vehicles go by you at such a high speed.” Scott said that riders are careful and won’t cross the road if they see or hear a vehicle but that cars can come down the road at fast speeds, and they don’t always have enough warning. This week, Scott began contacting local oﬃcials requesting that a crosswalk be installed. Scott was inspired by the crosswalk on Sheﬃeld Drive that Santa Barbara horsewoman Carol Bennett advocated for and that was ultimately installed to protect horses and their riders.

Obituary

Danny Christian Sutherland 9/21/1951 – 8/5/2021

Long-time Carpinteria resident Danny Sutherland, 69, passed away peacefully at his home on Aug. 5 after a courageous six-month battle with cancer. A loving and devoted husband and father, and cherished friend to many, he passed on with the same quiet strength and concern for others that distinguished his life. Danny was born on Sept. 21, 1951, in Los Angeles, the son of Eleanor (McCoy) and Wayne Sutherland. A 1969 graduate of the former Daniel Murphy High School, he went on to attend Los Angeles Pierce College. Danny served in the U.S. Navy from 1971–1977. His four years of active duty and two years of reserve duty included service in Vietnam and the Philippines on the USS Schenectady and the USS Savannah, followed by an Honorable Discharge. In 1971, Danny met the love of his life, Felicia – also born and raised in Los Angeles – at a gathering of mutual friends. Their connection was instant and deep, and the young couple was married at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church in Montecito (where his parents had moved) in 1975. The newlywed Sutherlands purchased their ﬁrst home in Carpinteria in 1976. Danny began his career in engineering and special projects at the Aluminum Filter Company in Carpinteria, where he worked for 20-plus years. He subsequent-

CVN

ly worked at Helix Medical in Carpinteria, in engineering, special projects and production, until his retirement in 2017. Danny loved to fish and looked forward to his annual fishing trip to the quaint town of Bridgeport in the Eastern Sierras, an excursion he thoroughly enjoyed with his life-long, dear friends, until recent years. He was thrilled to introduce fishing to his young sons, Eric and Andrew, and to more than a few friends through the years, and was always up to give “free” fishing lessons to anyone who was interested. His “perfect peaceful day” was spent taking his boat, a 20-foot Wellcraft, unofficially dubbed The Felicia Ann, out in local ocean waters to fish for halibut. He almost always caught his limit, which he meticulously cleaned and packaged, and then generously shared with friends and neighbors. He was the quintessential DIY guy, highly skilled and capable of building, repairing and/or retrofitting virtually anything, which kept the Sutherland household humming. He loved to barbeque and thoroughly enjoyed local restaurant faves The Spot, Danny’s Deli and Reynaldo’s, where he believed the ambiance and food represented the best of his beloved Carp community. The occasional snacker, he favored pistachios and Snickers bars with almonds, a “secret stash” of the latter having been recently discovered in his workshop. Danny (or Dan to some) will long be remembered for his love of family, friends and community; his humble grace; a humorous side that included a sparkling smile and infectious laugh; and his generosity, concern and caring for all who were fortunate enough to know him. Danny Sutherland was preceded in death by his older sister, Kathleen Sutherland (at age 17); his parents; and his eldest son, Eric Sutherland, who passed away suddenly in 2015. He is survived by his wife of 45 years, Felicia Sutherland; his beloved son Andrew Patrick Sutherland; and his adored rescue dogs, Tiffany and Jackson, who all miss him deeply. A private service celebrating his welllived life has been held. In lieu of flowers, gifts in his honor may be made to VNA Health Santa Barbara at vna.health.

Restaurants that use and blatantly block public sidewalks with tables and chairs, at worst, deny access to the disabled, and at best, hinder the public from safe use of the public sidewalk.

—David Rosso

Sidewalk-dining ﬂouts disability access

I am dismayed that public property has been usurped for private use by local restaurants, endangering public safety and restricting public access. And this is happening while the Surfliner Inn debate continues to draw outrage over its proposed use of public property for private profit. Restaurants that use and blatantly block public sidewalks with tables and chairs, at worst, deny access to the disabled, and at best, hinder the public from safe use of the public sidewalk. Families with small children and strollers must at times veer into the street to pass by, endangering those families. With Covid-19 rules now allowing for indoor dining, and most people accustomed to mask protocol, it is not necessary to create public safety hazards for the sake of private profit. Is this not the height of hypocrisy – that a takeover of the public sidewalk to serve private profit is tolerated by our city administration? Yet there is so much discussion of the proposed hotel taking over public open space. I find it appropriate to note that the city of Santa Barbara recently initiated revised rules for restaurant use of the public sidewalk and “parklets” on the public street to ensure that the Americans with Disabilities Act and general public access is maintained in conformance to regulations and common sense. The Carpinteria city administration needs to review how businesses use and abuse public property, lest the city face damaging legal issues. Yes, we should preserve local charm in our wonderful city, but not at the expense of our residents and their rights to safely use our public sidewalks.

David Rosso Carpinteria

Ed. note: In fact checking this letter, CVN reached out to City Manager David Durﬂinger, who responded that businesses were operADVERTISING ating in the street right-of-way (including the DISTRIBUTION SERVICES sidewalk) pursuant a Temporary COVID-19 Outdoor Business Permit. “All of these City COVID-19 Outdoor Business Permits ... are ADVERTISING explicit about maintaining adequate room for DISTRIBUTION SERVICES pedestrian passage consistent with accessibility standards,” Durﬂinger said, “Our code compliance team has been in touch with (... the) management (of businesses) about the concerns raised and will be monitoring the business(es) for compliance.”

Cult Republicans called for recall

This is in response to a recent letter writer concerning the California governor recall election (CVN, Issue 27, Vol. 50). So many inaccuracies. First of all, it is not Democrats and Independents fed up

and calling for the expensive recall – it is disgruntled cult Republicans hitting at any target to vent their frustrations over the former guy not being able to cheat his way to a win. California is not rated the highest in poverty in the U.S.; the top 10 are all southern states run by Republican governors who take the bounty from California, the worlds’ sixth largest economy, and use it to subsidize their poor management and lack of concern for the poor and ill. I found the one right wing article that claims otherwise – not a valid source. We are in the middle of some of the worst crises we have seen in decades. Leading and living our way through this is diﬃcult; hard decisions have to be made at all levels of government and management for the greater good. We cannot become a Florida or Texas. Thousands are dying and being disenfranchised of their rights and resources because of a misguided cult mentality enhanced and goaded on by conspiracy theories, fake “news” and MAGA carnival barkers and their ringleader. I am grateful for the fact that the Delta variant is not decimating California as in Republican states, for the rapid evacuation of over 100,000 American and Afghans from a war we lost a long time ago, for the “better angels” among us and for President Biden, who has the common sense and courage to accept responsibility for his actions and the hard decisions he has to make – something the former guy never did at any time. Vote “No” on the recall to keep California safe and sane.

Hearing voices?

I will not talk about what it feels like to see Taliban terrorists dressed in our American military uniforms, carrying our rifles and sitting in our Blackhawk helicopters. But I will talk about human beings – our people. After I left Phnom Penh, Cambodia, in April 1975, one week before the fall of Saigon, it took many, many years to find out the fate of my friends and the Cambodian people under communist dictator Pol Pot. I will not describe the genocide of 1.5 million people. If you want to know you can look it up now. There is a difference today from 50 years ago: the cell phone. At check points in Kabul, Afghanistan, where they were stopped, American families with children have sent photos of themselves, so their families will know what happened to them if they don’t come home. Our government wants you to believe that being left behind was their idea. Really? You can think that if you wish. But I will believe their voices, in their own words, while they still have voices we can hear. Until every single American is home safe, I will fly my American flag. It will fly every day. And I will remember.

Beloved matriarch and 61-year resident of Carpinteria celebrates 90th birthday

BY EVELYN SPENCE

Carmen Robitaille – of the famed Robitaille’s Fine Candies in Carpinteria – recently celebrated her 90th birthday and more than 61 years as a Carpinteria resident. Carmen, who was born on Aug. 26, celebrated her impressive milestone surrounded by her friends and family – which included her four children, 14 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren, with another on the way. Carmen herself is the oldest of her siblings. “But who’s counting? When you live to be 90 (my birthday date) doesn’t much matter,” Carmen laughed. She applauded her four kids’ dedication to putting her birthday celebration together, which her daughter Carol Robitaille Dewan called a “great fiesta.” “It was a great success,” Carmen said. “They did a perfect job (…) we had a lot of people. A taco guy, a margarita bar. We all had a good time.” Carmen and her husband, Guy, who passed away in 2016, first moved to Carpinteria in 1959, after the birth of their first child. The two were living in Los Angeles at the time, and Carmen said they regularly passed the area, but had never quite stopped to take it in. That is, until one day Guy happened to stop by Carpinteria and got a glimpse of its beautiful beach – it was then, she said, that the two decided to make it their new home. “It was just chance, we weren’t planning it,” she said. “We’d been to Carpinteria before, but we never really stopped and looked around really. We moved here and we rented an apartment here and settled in and we’ve been here ever since,” she added, laughing. All of Carmen’s children went through Carpinteria schools, from St. Joseph’s to Mt. Carmel and Bishop High School. She said she is immensely proud of her family and the legacy her and her husband made in Carpinteria. “I can’t believe it when I look around and see these people, all productive citizens. I can’t believe it, everyone has a college degree,” Carmen said. Both Carmen and her husband immediately jumped into the community, “becoming part of the community rather quickly,” she said. The two fell in love with Carpinteria and its home-town atmosphere. Carmen volunteered everywhere she could and served on city council and the public planning commission. “I think the friendliness of the town (stands out),” she explained. “It’s a whole different atmosphere (…) Everyone was

It was a really great testament to my mother’s legacy, a testament to how my mom has really led the family for so many years,” she said.

We had a great fiesta.” Carol described her mother as someone who never “puts herself first,” and said it was “very nice to see her honored.” “She spent her whole life tending to people, or volunteering, or focusing on the business. It was about time she was honored, and she enjoyed every moment of it.” Carol also spoke to Carpinteria’s sentiment, emphasizing that her parents embraced Carpinteria the second they stepped foot there – “there was no looking back. My god, I had the perfect childhood, an amazing childhood, wonderful friends, great people.” She applauded her mother’s legacy in her involvement with the city, recalling how her mother painted birthday cakes on the windows of businesses when the first incorporation of Carpinteria’s birth-

day came around in 1966. She described her mother as a “very humble person” and a “worker bee.” “My mom painted cakes on windows when she was president of the Carpinteria Junior Women’s League to celebrate the first anniversary of the city’s incorporation,” Carol said. “I was sitting in the back of the station wagon, watching my mom paint these happy birthday cakes on the windows. We definitely got dragged around to a lot of events.” “She’s a very humble, hard-working person. She taught us a lot about community service, and fortunately, all four of us kids have continued that. I’m proud to be her daughter, and I think I can speak for all of my siblings (when I say) I’m happy that she’s 90 and she’s thriving and she’s joyful,” Carol said. “There’s no way she’s ever going to leave her home (in Carpinteria).”

Howard students head back to class PHOTOS BY DEBRA HERRICK

Last week, students from The Howard School were welcomed back onto the El Carro Lane campus for the start of the new school year. After saying “hello” to old friends and checking out their new classrooms, students met in the field for the school’s daily assembly.

Longtime school director Joel Reed watches students as they funnel into their classrooms. This year marks Mr. Reed’s 21st year as headmaster of The Howard School.

Howard students tackle big questions throughout the day in their academic subjects, but at morning assembly, singing and supporting their classmates is assignment number 1.

The school uniform this year includes a well-fitted mask. Kennedy Rodriguez wears a bold purple and Isla Crooke sports polka dots.

After the pledge of allegiance, students review geography and recite a weekly motto. Last week’s inspirational words came from Dr. Seuss: “Be yourself, everyone else is taken.”

BY DEBRA HERRICK

Last week, Justine Trout celebrated her one-year anniversary working at the Carpinteria Post Oﬃce. Trout is one of the friendly faces behind the counter helping customers make sure their mail and packages get where they are going on time and in good condition. Originally from Los Angeles, Trout lived in Monrovia for 12 years before relocating to Ventura in January 2019 with her teenage daughter Lyla. She came to work at the Carpinteria Post Oﬃce after she lost her job in telecommunications at the start of the pandemic. She was looking for a new job when a friend of her daughter recommended she apply.

Trout said she loves working at the Carpinteria Post Office because of the people and the small-town feel. Getting to know her customers makes her job more enjoyable and meaningful. “It’s personalized – we’re almost like a post office boutique,” she said. Positive exchanges with customers are an everyday experience, Trout said. Locals often bring in gifts such as flowers, avocados and even baklava. “Everybody is just very appreciative and doing kind things like that all the time. I don’t think you would have that in another post office – like in a bigger city,” she said. “Everybody is very sweet here. I actually haven’t had one bad encounter.”

City manager speaks about local changes

Last week, the Morning Rotary Club of Carpinteria welcomed Carpinteria City Manager Dave Durflinger, who spoke about the upcoming changes within the city. Beginning October, Carpinteria, along with other South County cities, are switching to Central Coast Community Energy, which offers clean energy to residents. Durflinger also said that beginning July 2022, Carpinteria’s public library budget will take effect, which will give the community more control over its library system. He added that voters should also be aware of the upcoming change in Carpinteria’s election system; City Council will be switching to the by-trustee voting system ahead of the November 2022 elections, which Durflinger said will allow residents more representation on the council.

Judgement call

CVN

IT’S ALL SURFING CHRISTIAN BEAMISH It’s hard to tell, through the texts and tearful phone calls, the exact series of events: did the engine die, or did the headsail tear apart first? Either way, my wife’s best friend’s husband found himself in a bad way on the Timor Sea last week aboard his new 35-foot yacht, on the 350-mile crossing between Indonesia and their home in Darwin, Australia. With headwinds gusting to 35 knots and 2.5-meter (8-foot) running seas, he had lost steering because of the headsail and the engine failure, then deployed a sea anchor (a parachute-like device that’s run-out to keep a vessel bow-on to oncoming seas in storm conditions). The line to the sea anchor parted, and the seas then swept him sideways between steep and breaking waves, making it just be a matter of time before his vessel would be swamped, capsized, then sunk. That’s when he activated the EPRB (an emergency satellite beacon) and the Australian coast guard deployed a plane to assess the situation. A cargo ship transiting the area was diverted to pick up our friend and his partner, and all we know is that he is safely on board and headed to a port that is about a six-hour drive from Darwin. The $60,000 yacht, bought on credit, is adrift, presumably headed back to Timor unless it sinks first, along with a nice little tender that he’d already cut loose in the heavy seas. Traveling by sail (even with motor assist) has always involved the possibility

The Timor Sea: a notorious stretch of ocean nearly claims a surfer’s life. of danger. But what my wife and I cannot understand (and this little tale is just between us friends here in Carpinteria, reading the Coastal View News, right?) is why he made the crossing when he did. Apparently, the weather pattern switches in late September and early October, making the sail a “downhill” run from Timor to Darwin – literally, surfing home. Naturally, there were other factors at play. First off, he was operating on 21st-century time, having taken a couple of weeks off from his job as a regional pilot in Australia to make the voyage, so it was simply time to get back to work and to his family. And the ocean doesn’t care if your boss gets mad about taking another week or two off. The main factor in losing the boat was attempting the crossing even though the forecast did not look promising. Yet I believe an important underlying factor (which I can very much relate to) was our

friend’s desire for the surfing life and its inevitable conflict with family life. After all, the only reason he had the new yacht was so that he could sail from surfless Darwin, to wave-rich Indonesia a few times a year. But with two little boys and his wife at home, and none of them prepared to jump in full time to the sailing life, I feel that my friend might have made other choices. The boat itself – awesome as it would be to own – was a huge expense, and just as they are trying to buy a home (with real estate being about as crazy-expensive in coastal Australia as it is in coastal U.S.). And it is the second boat he’s purchased (apparently telling his wife only after the deal was done). The first boat he left on a mooring in Timor, pre-Covid 19, and he’d sailed the new one over to deal with the old one, moving the first boat from a mooring where it had been falling to disrepair for a year-and-a-half. Still though, I understand what may

have been his feelings of chafing under a stultifying routine. This is a guy who grew up between Kauai and the perfect waves of Queensland. I’ve surfed with him, and he has that through-andthrough quality that the best surfers have, that comes from pursuing wave riding intensely from a young age and for a long time. So, he might have felt trapped in Darwin, making flights across the big Aussie continent, not surfing much at all. And with this weird Covid-19 time we’re all in, perhaps it all felt like too much – like his life, or what he believed his life was meant to be, depended on getting to Indonesia aboard his new yacht. I know that he loves his family too. His boys are bright and funny, his wife is beautiful and intelligent. It’s really not for me to judge, but I cannot help wondering about how much of our own interests we’re entitled to once we have children. My feeling is that we’re entitled (perhaps “entitled” is the wrong word) to a good amount of our own interests. Our children depend on us of course, and in fact they are the ones who are entitled to our care and time. But even as parents, we are still individuals, trying to make what we can out of our lives. If I am right – if my wife’s best friend’s husband (who is also a friend of mine), really could do nothing but buy himself a yacht and sail it in the wrong time of year in a desperate attempt to wring some surf adventure out of his life – then I just feel badly for him. Because that’s not merely rotten luck on a rough crossing; that level of desperation, I’m afraid, leans towards something that even the most perfect wave in the world can’t fix.

Farmland and food equity in the Carpinteria Valley: towards a more just future

CVN

FIELD NOTES

EXPLORING THE VALLEY’S WILD AND CULTIVATED SPACES

ALENA STEEN I’ve spent my last few columns discussing the state of agriculture in the Carpinteria Valley. I’ve considered the context of land being lost to agriculture via urban development and a farmer population that is “aging-out” without being able to pass farmland to the next generation. Another consistent theme is the importance of building farming systems and economies that are more resilient in the face of a rapidly changing climate. However, this complex patchwork of needs and services – augmented by the realities of drought, wildfire and disrupted national supply chains – is just one part of the story of sustainable agriculture. Another important part of the conversation, both locally and nationally, is equity. Truly sustainable agriculture and farmland access considers the economic, environmental and social consequences of farming practices and models. This means that our shifting agricultural paradigm must include not only climate-wise and water-conserving farming practices, but social and racial justice within land ownership and food access. I wrote about food insecurity and disparate access to healthy, nutritious food in Carpinteria in an article for the CVN in Feb. 2019. Many of the facts remain the same: within the Carpinteria Unified School District, according to recent census data, roughly 62% of the student population is eligible for free or reduced-price meals. While the Carpinteria Valley and Santa Barbara County remain powerhouses of agricultural production, much of this fresh produce is exported out of the county (about 99%). We live in a land of abundance, which conceals the fact that many of us are unable to access fresh, nutritious food. Although the data available online is not fine-grained enough to account for a breakdown of food insecurity along lines of race and ethnicity within Carpinteria, state and county-level demographics show that a disparate proportion of food-insecure people are people of color. This disparity is also reflected on the production side of agriculture. According to the most recent Census of Agriculture

Farmer Alena Steen points out that a lack of diversity in leadership positions in agriculture is a missed opportunity. for Santa Barbara County, only 2.5% of farms are owned and operated by nonwhite farmers. Meanwhile, according to field data from a local farmworker-advocacy non-profit, CAUSE, roughly 91.3% of farmworkers are Latinx. This is statistically consistent across the country and represents a deeply unequal power dynamic which exposes people of color to the many and varied risks of farming (low wages, demanding physical labor, chemical exposure, workplace accidents, etc.) without any of the benefits of farmland and farm ownership (the ability to accrue generational wealth, build capital, protect and conserve land, etc.). A lack of diversity in leadership positions in agriculture is a missed opportunity. Agriculture is only enriched by a greater pool of farming knowledge and

skills, since there are many traditions of truly sustainable agriculture from all over the world where people have been successfully producing food for their local communities in ways that conserve and even increase natural resources for millennia. Many modern “permaculture” and organic or no-till practices are not recent discoveries – instead, they stem from traditional farming practices from many different corners of the world. If we can agree that access to fresh,

nutritious and affordable food is a human right, and that a diversity of farmland and farm-based business ownership enriches agriculture, we can begin to problem solve to truly reflect a more inclusive and ethical farm future. One critical part of the solution is to make sure that people of color are included in leadership and land ownership positions within agriculture via increased resources to own and maintain farms. There is a long history of inequality and racism which is partly to blame for the lack of non-white farmland ownership and operation. One striking example is the long-term racial profiling and loan-denial practices of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The USDA is a primary driver of farmland ownership, primarily via loans for land purchase and business expansion. The USDA has a well-documented history of discrimination against minority farmers, including documentation from within the agency itself. The USDA is working to correct these systemic patterns by creating increased opportunities for farmland and business loans for farmers of color, though there is still much improvement needed. In addition, many non-profits across the country are engaging in promising works of farmland access and equity. Many land banks are beginning to prioritize farmland conservation, as well as creating low-cost, long-term rental opportunities which are available specifically for younger farmers without access to generational wealth or farmland, many of whom are Black, Indigenous or Latinx. If you’re interested in learning more about this aspect of sustainable farming, one great resource is Soul Fire Farm, a Hudson-Valley based Black and Indigenous-led farm with lots of online resources for land and food access and equity, as well as farm-based training programs for young farmers of color. Additionally, the Agrarian Trust is a nationwide non-profit committed to transitioning intact farmland to next-generation farmers with a focus on equity with several California-based initiatives. If you are a farm or landowner interested in exploring alternative models of farm succession, there are also resources available online at California FarmLink and Land for Good.

Risotto with Barley

SALE PENDING

CHEF RANDY OCEANFRONT WEEKLY RENTALS

RANDY GRAHAM Who would think that you could make a tasty and easy risotto with barley? Barley is a versatile cereal grain with a rich nutlike flavor and an appealing chewy, pasta-like consistency. It is the perfect substitute for Arborio rice in risotto. It is touted as one of the world’s healthiest foods having an abundance of manganese, magnesium, selenium, copper, chromium, Vitamins B1 and B3 and fiber. * Serve with a side of salad and you have a complete meal.

Ingredients:

5 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided) 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (divided) ½ cup shallots (chopped fine) 1½ cups pearl barley 1½ teaspoons salt ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper ¼ cup dry white wine 16 ounces Cremini mushrooms, (sliced thin) 4 cups vegetable broth 2 teaspoons Better Than Bouillon Vegetable Base 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped) 1 tablespoon fresh sage (chopped) ¾ cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

Directions

Plug in your slow cooker and set the heat to low.

Some weeks still available in September. Call for your Staycation.

SUMMER VACATION RENTALS 2 bedroom • 1 bath at CARPINTERIA SHORES on the beach. Sleeps 6. Choices of 1st, 2nd & 3rd ﬂoor units. 3 bedroom • 2 bath, townhome on Dorrance with hot tub • 2 blocks from the beach. 1 & 2 bedroom apartments at the BEACHCOMBER across the street from the beach.

FOR LEASE Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and cook, while stirring, until tender – about 2 minutes. Add the barley, salt, and pepper and cook for 1 minute more. Pour in wine and cook, stirring until the wine is mostly evaporated – about 3 minutes. Transfer this mixture to a slow cooker and cover.

Stir in the parsley, sage, ½ cup of the cheese and the remaining 2 tablespoons butter. Transfer to a large serving bowl and garnish with the remaining ¼ cup cheese. Bring to the table while still hot.

Using the same large pan on medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of the butter and the remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add the mushrooms and cook until lightly browned and wilted – about 5 minutes.

THROWBACK

Rest and relaxation at Stanley Park

Carpinteria’s Stanley Park offered a rustic-yet-comfortable escape from the city along the banks of Rincon Creek. Located upstream of where Highway 150 and Gobernador Canyon Road intersect today, the resort, complete with craftsman-style lodge, dining room and tent cabins, was developed by Dr. Henry Shepard and named for one of his sons, Stanley. Its big sister, Shepard’s Inn, was opened much earlier in the 19th century by James and Belle Shepard originally as a stage stop, and later as a renowned rustic retreat. Stanley Park was more of a summer resort, as several stream crossings made access difficult in the winter. To learn more about Carpinteria history, visit the Carpinteria Valley Museum of History’s website carpinteriahistoricalmuseum.org to access more articles on local history. To support the preservation of local history, consider becoming a member of the Carpinteria Week of 9/6/21 Historical Society.

Warriors football falls in close game at home

After nearly 700 days without football, the Warriors returned to the friendly confines of Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium to take on St. Monica for their first home game of the season. Carpinteria’s home fans turned out to support the team, which got out to a quick start and scored their first points of the year on a 38-yard field goal from sophomore Raul Reyes. “The Warrior community showed up,” said athletic director Pat Cooney. He said it was the “largest crowd in recent history,” and that fans, a raucous student section dressed in all black, and the team were all excited to bring back school pride on Friday nights. “The community deserves congratulations for bringing football events back with vengeance and for displaying once again that Warrior spirit never dies,” Cooney said. In the second quarter, freshman Dominic Herrerra made his presence known when he recovered a botched punt attempt deep in St. Monica territory, then caught a 10-yard pass to give Carpinteria a 10-6 lead going into the half. Warriors quarterback Matthew Munoz broke for a long, 46-yard run and

threw for a touchdown, but three interceptions – including a tipped pass that was returned inside the Carpinteria 20-yard line – proved to be too much to overcome in the end, and St. Monica held on to a slim 19-17 victory on the road. Carpinteria finished with 167 total yards, 56 passing and 111 rushing. St. Monica tallied 290 total yards, with 228 coming through the air. A silver lining in the Warrior’s tough loss is their staunch third-down defense, which was able to stop 11 of 12 St. Monica third-down attempts. Carpinteria also held the Mariners rushing game to 62 yards in the defeat. With the win, St. Monica is now 1-1 on the season, heading into their next matchup at home against undefeated Hamilton (Los Angeles) on Friday, Sept. 10. After the loss, Carpinteria is now 0-2 on the season, and will return to Carpinteria Valley Memorial Stadium on Friday, Sept. 9 for another non-league home game against Channel Islands, who recently lost their third game in a row 49-19 against Thousand Oaks. Both teams are looking for their first win of the season.

Carpinteria girls volleyball struggles in two games

In the “Battle for the 192,” the Carpinteria girls volleyball team reignited their rivalry with Cate, who proved too much for the young team in the end as the Warriors lost 3-1. At home against Newbury Park the Warriors were swept in three straight sets. After dropping the first set 13-25, the team fought hard and tough in their last two sets, losing 20-25 and 18-25. “Some of the shining Warrior stars who stood out were the outside hitter squad of Alex Zapata, Ainsley Anderson, Camryn Siegel along with setter and team captain Marlene Sanchez,” said coach Brett Shellaberger. Girls volleyball extended their series of rivalry matches this week when they visited “The Brick House” at Bishop Diego on Wednesday.

Carpinteria Girls Tennis drops two matches in a row

The Warriors’ girls tennis squad lost two straight matches in two days to start September, facing strong teams last week at Laguna Blanca and at home against Dos Pueblos. Against Laguna Blanca, the well-balanced roster proved too much for Carpinteria as the team fell 4-2 early on and struggled to regain their footing for a 14-2 loss. Coach Charles Bryant said that the Owls “will be a force down the road in D-4,” and could be a strong CIF contender. “We just could not make any headway against them as they took a 4-2 lead after the first round and never looked back. We were happy for the great experience of playing them if that makes sense,” Bryant said. “I think they showed and taught us a lot today. They are very well coached, and it shows.” The girls doubles team of Natalia Perez and Cassandra Maya Prado did well, finishing 2-1. “They stepped up today and played consistently from the baseline and at the net which has been a big part of our focus this past week,” Bryant said. The next day at home against Dos Pueblos, the team struggled with consistency, Bryant said, and the Chargers’ talented and aggressive players were too much in the end, as the Warriors finished with an overall 15-3 loss. “I think we started to get better at the end and became used to the pace and spins that we rarely see,” Bryant said. Bryant hopes that the experience gained against two strong teams pays off as the season continues. “I am happy for the experience in playing strong, deep teams,” he said. “I truly believe it will make us better once league starts in a few weeks.” Carpinteria is now 1-3 overall and will continue with two road games this week at Villanova Prep and Channel Islands.

Cate 8-man football wins big in season opener

The Cate Rams sat out the 2020 season due to the pandemic, but after a long wait the 8-man football team faced off against traditional football powerhouse Grace Brethren on Sept. 3 in Simi Valley. In a game where every player on Cate’s roster saw action, the Rams jumped to a 30-7 halftime lead, and continued a strong offensive showing in a 50-21 win to start the season off 1-0. Senior quarterback Will Bouma threw for three touchdowns to fellow senior Mason Oetgen and added another rushing touchdown in the first half. Each time Grace Brethren scored, Cate responded with three unanswered touchdowns of their own. Another score by Bouma and senior running back Ethan Ligon ran the score up to 50-13 at the end of the third quarter. “Junior Jack Whelan, junior Charlie Patel, and senior Ben Meyer turned in a solid performance on both sides of the ball,” said coach Ben Soto. “Sophomore Kristian Scurtis and senior Matty Holmes led the defense, creating four stops on 4th down plays tried by Grace.” Cate’s defense also recovered three fumbles on the day. “All in all, a great way to start out our season,” Soto said. “We are excited to build on our win and look forward to an exciting season.” The Ram’s next game is at home on Saturday, Sept. 18 at 2 p.m. against Orcutt.

Carpinteria Boys Water Polo at Malibu Classic Tournament *Carpinteria Football vs. Channel Islands, 7:00 p.m.

Saturday, September 11 Carpinteria boys water polo stays unbeaten with a win against Santa Ynez.

Warriors water polo remains undefeated

The Carpinteria boys water polo team continued a great start to the 2021 season with two decisive victories against Santa Ynez and Righetti. “It had been a long dry spell for the Carpinteria Warriors against the CIF Division 2 Santa Ynez Pirates water polo team,” said coach Jon Otsuki. “But on Tuesday afternoon the Warriors finally turned the tables and sank the Pirates 13-5 at the Carpinteria Community Pool.” After a 2-2 first quarter start, the Warriors made the necessary adjustments and gained momentum with eight unanswered goals, for a 10-3 lead at the end of the 3rd quarter. “Warriors team captain Mateo Handall played a near flawless game on both sides of the pool,” Otsuki said. On offense, Handall scored four goals, and on defense he was everywhere, “smothering the opposition, creating turnovers, and chasing down counter attacks.” Justin added three goals of his own; Coby Gonzales and Zach Isaac scored twice each; and Goalie Jacob Taft recorded 12 saves on the day for a 13-5 Carpinteria win. Against Righetti, in the battle of the Warriors, Carpinteria jumped out to a quick lead and never looked back, coasting to a 15-10 victory. Sophomore standout Asher Smith led the team with nine goals, and Gavin Lohuis added three more. Taft had another strong showing with 11 stopped shots on the day. “Player communication and the ability to adapt to the opposing teams’ strategies continues to be the difference in their recent games,” Otsuki said. Carpinteria’s next competition will be on the road for the Malibu Classic Sept. 9-11. They are now 4-0 on the season.
