Powerful messages of hope and health expressed in colorful chalk appeared in downtown Carpinteria last week thanks to Mask Up Carp, a City-sponsored campaign to promote public safety during the COVID-19 pandemic. The art pictured here can be found on the 7th Street side of the former Austin’s Hardware building. The artist, who identified herself only as Kit, used chalk paint to create a stunning storm scene that pairs our current challenges with a note of optimism.

Awaiting the final bid from the Dreamland skate park design firm in Portland, Oregon, the Carpinteria Skate Foundation is holding a “Buy-A-Brick” fundraiser, in which supporters can purchase a brick with a personal message inscribed that will be incorporated into the final design of the park. A 4” x 8” brick (three lines of text, 20 characters per line) costs $50, and an 8” x 8” brick (six lines of text, 20 characters per line) costs $100.

The park has been approved by the City of Carpinteria and recently passed the last hurdle of clearance from the California Coastal Commission. When complete, the park will comprise 30,000 square feet, including about 20,000 square feet of skateboarding terrain. Nighttime lighting will enable evening skateboarding, and a stage with electrical outlets and zoning allowances for amplified music performances will be incorporated into the design. Dreamland has designed skate parks internationally for the past 30 years, and plans for the Carpinteria park include features for beginner- to pro-level skaters.

With $450,000 already raised, Carpinteria Skate Foundation estimates a final cost of between $800,000 and $1 million to build the park, with a yet-to-be-determined amount shouldered by the city for amenities like picnic tables, BBQ areas and landscaping.

Los Padres Forest temporarily closes due to high fire danger

As of 5 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 7, the Los Padres Forest, along with seven other California Forests, has been closed to all activities. The closure comes as a result of a combination of the fires currently raging across the state, weather forecasts for heat and high winds and the scarcity of fire-fighting resources.

The Dolan Fire in the Northern portion of the Los Padres Forrest in Big Sur, has been burning since Aug.18, and is 20 percent contained. The fire area is 93,554 acres, and 738 fire personnel are on scene.

The U.S. Forest Service estimates the fire will be contained by Sept. 28.

Governor signs landmark mobilehome law Hundreds of Carpinteria residents stand to benefit from new rent protections

CVN REPORT On Aug. 31, 2020, Governor Newsom signed into law a bill that provides additional economic protection to residents of mobilehome parks. Assembly Bill 2782 will amend current state law to allow for local rent control regulations to apply to longterm space leases in mobilehome parks.

“This is a huge victory for Carpinteria residents,” said City Manager Dave Durflinger in a press release. “It closes a loophole that hurt our most vulnerable population. We expect this law to make mobilehome housing in Carpinteria more affordable and provide more protection to Carpinteria residents from the risk of economic displacement and home loss.”

Carpinteria City Council, the city’s Mobilehome Park Rent Stabilization Board, city staff and legal team all contributed to the passage of the bill. When the new law goes into effect January 2021, it will end the exemption of long-term leases from local mobilehome park space rent regulation. This exemption had prevented residents who had entered into such long-term leases from receiving the benefits of the lower space rent levels afforded by local rent regulations.

Carpinteria’s 860 mobilehome park residences make up over 15 percent of the city’s housing stock and are affordable by design. When established in 1979,

There are 860 mobilehomes in parks in Carpinteria, making up over 15 percent of the city’s housing stock. the city’s mobilehome rent stabilization program applied to all mobilehome park spaces and provided a measure of protection from the inherent vulnerability of being both an owner of a mobilehome and a renter of a space in a mobilehome park.

Over the years, the Carpinteria City Council received letters and testimony from mobilehome park residents, most of

Sheriff’s Office releases revised statement

Lieutenant Butch Arnoldi, Commander of the Carpinteria substation, issued a statement clarifying the facts surrounding a medical incident that occurred Sunday, Aug. 30, at 1:27 p.m. at 400 Palm Avenue. “The bottom line is that the patient is alive today as a result of the collaborative effort and action by several people,” Lieutenant Arnoldi stated.

A man suffered a heart attack, and Arnoldi noted that if the incident had occurred “100 feet in either direction the lifesaving equipment would not have been accessible in a timely manner.”

Two off-duty nurses, Laura Morales and Beth Couba, and a flight nurse, Melissa Reiman, took control of the incident from the onset. State Beach lifeguard Tess Edwards as well as a City of Carpinteria lifeguard arrived on scene immediately. Additionally, Mounted Beach Patrol deputies, Senior Deputy Patrick Hayes and Deputy Chris Morales had just arrived and were unloading their horses near the incident location.

Both Patrol Sergeant Dan Calderon and Deputy Jason Wreede were monitoring the radio and scanner traffic and responded to the area Code Three running with the Automated External Defibrillator where it was deployed to save the man’s life.

“Finally,” Arnoldi stated, “Carpinteria Fire Department and American Medical Response personnel arriving and stabilizing (the man) so he could be transported to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital for advanced care,” was another significant factor in the successful operation. “We all can be very proud that each and every one of these facts ‘lined up,’” Arnoldi concluded, “and together as a community and collaboration of first responders, a life was saved.”

MTD driver tests positive for Covid-19

The Santa Barbara Metro Transportation Department confirmed on Tuesday, Sept.

8, that a bus driver had tested positive for Covid-19. The employee had been working as a bus operator and began feeling unwell after work on the evening of Friday, Sept.

4. The employee has not worked since, has self-isolated and was last in contact with other employees and the public in the early afternoon of Sept. 4.

The driver wore a required face covering throughout their shift per MTD and County Public Health requirements. MTD has conducted thorough contact tracing.

The driver conducted the following routes 48 hours prior to becoming symptomatic: Thursday, Sept. 3, Line 23 (El Encanto Heights) from 5:50 a.m. to 6:10 a.m., Line 11 (UCSB) from 6:10 a.m. to 7:28 a.m., Line 6 (Goleta) from 7:30 a.m. to 8:23 a.m., Lines 1 and 2 (West SB & East SB) from 10:40 a.m. until 3:25 p.m.; Friday, Sept. 4, Line 23 (El Encanto Heights) from 5:50 a.m. to 6:10 a.m., Line 11 (UCSB) from 6:10 a.m. to 7:28 a.m., Line 6 (Goleta) from 7:30 a.m. to 8:23 a.m., Lines 1 and 2 (West SB & East SB) from 10:40 a.m. until 3:25 p.m. The Unit numbers of buses driven are: 624, 900, 901, 910.

For the record...

In the article “A Taste of Turkey comes to Carpinteria” (Vol. 26, No. 50, Sept. 3, 2020), Ali Uzuntepe’s name was misspelled. Uzuntepe owns Sade Turkish Coffee and Delights on Carpinteria Avenue.

whom are seniors and/or lower income families, stating that they had either been offered only a long-term lease or had been coerced into signing a long-term lease. Before Assembly Bill 2782, these long-term leases were exempted from local rent stabilization, and renters who entered long term leases unknowingly exposed themselves to rent increases outside of

the City’s rent protections.

Assembly Bill 2782 takes effect on Jan. 1, 2021, and at that time will eliminate the long-term lease exemption from local rent control on leases entered into after Feb. 13, 2020. After Jan. 1, 2025, the exemption elimination will extend to long-term leases entered at any time, including prior to Feb. 13, 2020.

Howard School prepares for in-person learning

The Howard School had their first day of school on Tuesday, Sept. 8. Kindergarten through eighth grade students got started in remote learning classes while the school prepares for their in-person opening later this month under a waiver granted by the state.

Community supports back-to-school kits

Carpinteria High School biology teacher Audrey Rogan dreamt up a big idea this summer: to welcome all 650 CHS students back to school with a brand new 20-21 school year Warrior T-shirt, custom CHS stickers, a 20-21 academic planner and school supplies so that all students have what they need to be successful and feel connected to school in the midst of online learning.

After pitching her idea to staff, Audrey and fellow science teacher Mandi de Witte Carpinteria-based businesses got to work with the Parents for CHS donated funds to provide back-tosupport group who helped spearhead the school kits for Carpinteria High plan. Parents Thia Raunsbak and Susan Endow were essential in the fundrais- School students. ing process, and in total helped to raise over $10,000 for the cause. Businesses, organizations, and individuals in Carpinteria pitched it, including larger donations from: Carp Growers, $5,000; Greenleaf Landscapes, $1,000; Agilent Technologies, $1,000; Carol Koch and Family, $1,000.

Once all the school supplies and spirit gear arrived, nearly every CHS staff member helped assemble 650 bags, while others greeting students as they drove through the parking lot to pick up their supplies—masks in place and keeping six-feet of distance.

Obituary

Marjorie Chock Clark

Marjorie Yuke Ching Chock Clark was born in 1935 to Wilfred and Violet Ching Chock, in Honolulu, Hawaii, the youngest of siblings Evelyn Mun (deceased), Bertha Fong, and Wallace and James Chock. Early morning August 26th, Marge drifted from peaceful sleep in her Kaneohe home to join, in Heaven, devoted husband John—who had passed enjoying K-Bay views on the lanai less than three months prior—and their beloved son Lee, taken by cancer two years ago. Marge is survived by daughter Lin, son-in-law Wilson, and granddaughter Maia of Kaneohe, Hawaii, grandson Liam Miller of Auburn, Wash., Lee’s children Matthew, Jennifer, Michelle and Nicholas Clark of Montana, daughter-in-law Sharon Clark and step-granddaughters Kaylene (partner Chan) and Janelle Jaworski, all of southern California, 10 nieces and nephews, and four great-grandchildren.

Margie was only six when her family witnessed Japanese Zeros bombing Pearl Harbor, some planes flying so low they could see the Rising Sun insignia. Under threat of future attacks, they blacked-out windows ensuring no light escaped and, like her classmates, she learned to quickly don a gas mask, then lugged it to and from school. Living close to a potential bombing target of military personnel, materiel, and long-range batteries, the family and neighbors joined forces to build a bomb shelter.

Growing up an admitted tom-boy, Marge played sports with her brothers, and climbed from the garage roof into fruit-laden trees, bringing salt and pepper to gorge themselves on green mangoes.

Every summer, the kids would take the steamer from Oahu to Kauai to visit grandmother, ending up in her mango trees, too, deftly dodging geckos to reach more unripe delicacies. When the family moved to Oahu’s windward side, Margie bid aloha to Kaimuki mango trees, and embraced the waters of Kaneohe Bay, spending hours rowing the family skiff, solo, in the channel fronting their Bay-side home, apparently unfazed by curious Hammerheads and Tiger sharks.

Following graduation from Roosevelt High, Marge attended then-Graceland College in Lamoni, Iowa and the University of California at Santa Barbara, where she met the love of her life while working toward a physical education teaching degree she would never get to complete. Two years after Marge and John married, they wrapped up Lee and Lin in a blanket, burrito style, and headed out on a study break road-trip up the coast with a friend. On a rainy Oregon afternoon, the friend lost control and their car skidded off the oil-slicked road and over a cliff, throwing the kids out, as the car tumbled down the ravine. No one died, but Marge, dragged up to the road by well-meaning passers-by, suffered a crushed spinal cord and total paralysis of both legs. The kids were unharmed, cushioned by the blanket, but Lin—still

wrapped in the middle—was left behind until John alerted authorities who rushed back to the scene to find her that night.

Always the dedicated mother, Marge’s first words after regaining consciousness in the hospital, “Where’s my baby? I need to nurse my daughter.”

Following failed surgeries, agonizing traction, and months of painful recovery, Marge refused to feel sorry for herself.

After rehabilitating near ohana in Hawaii, she returned to California where she tackled, head-on, myriad daily challenges like lifting herself in and out of the bed and tub, handling household chores, shopping, sewing clothes without patterns (like the dress she wears, here), jury-rigging frugal DIY repairs, and raising two kids—who came home from school, hand-in-hand, like she’d taught them, to hear Mama whistling happily or singing beautifully. After they settled down in Summerland, near the beach and Santa Barbara Harbor, Marge supported John’s commercial fishing efforts, helping to build crab pots, and weave and mend huge fish nets. She cooked sumptuous meals for family—even seven-course Chinese dinners for friends, and delectable desserts fans still crave. When the kids were older, she worked outside the home, matching gems and bezels with Jostens rings, and assembling high-voltage performance products for Kilovac. At home, she mastered securities investment and crafted hand-made trout fishing flies. She accomplished all these without high-tech tools and accessibility aids.

John, known locally as a talented illustrator and print maker, wasn’t the only artist in the family: Marge drew sensitive black and white sketches, one of a precious baby owl, and painted a small collection she called “Après Gauguin”–her beautifully vibrant versions of Impressionist Paul Gauguin’s Tahitian women, including iconic oils Ta Matete (We Shall Not Go to Market Today), When Will You Marry? and Ia Orana Maria (Hail Mary).

The portrait Marge lovingly painted of her daughter, in bright red-and-white aloha wear, now graces their island home, juxtaposed with John’s Mona Lisa-like immortalization of his “Empress” Marge, clad regally in a loden green, traditional brocade cheongsam.

Long will family and friends cherish memories not only of Marge’s exotic Chinese-Hawaiian beauty, sweet disposition and even temper, but her incredible strength and resolve, confined to a wheelchair unable to move her legs for over 62 years. Those who knew her suffering, and the unrelenting back and hip pain she endured without complaint, drew constant inspiration from her example, learning never to take for granted those blessings they did have. Her life, truly, enriched our lives.

Asked once by her daughter what she missed most about being ambulatory, she sighed, wistfully: “Being able to feel sand between my toes.” Free of her chair and the pain, Mama now walks the beaches of Heaven with Dad and Lee, finally at peace.

Marjorie will be interred next to John on Saturday, Sept. 12 at 2 p.m. at Nuuanu Memorial Park and Mortuary, 2233 Nuuanu Ave., Honolulu, HI 96817. Her brother, Reverend James Chock will provide the blessing. In lieu of flowers, the family requests consideration of a donation in memory of Marjorie Chock Clark, to the locally owned and operated heath care company that so lovingly ministered her home hospice comfort: Malama Ola Foundation, Inc., P.O. Box 30273, Honolulu, HI 96820; or malamaolacares.com/ donation/

Elementary Waiver

On Aug. 21, Dr. Ansorg, Health Officer of Santa Barbara County Public Health, announced that Santa Barbara County would accept waivers for elementary schools to reopen in-person learning. The waiver application includes components of the Reopening Plan adopted by the CUSD Board on Aug. 11, consultation with labor and parent organizations, and the every two-month staff testing plan.

We will discuss the waiver application to open in a hybrid model for elementary schools on Oct. 1, and secure Board approval at the Sept. 15 Board meeting.

School Lunch Program

Throughout the spring Covid-19 crisis, the USDA granted school waivers to serve lunch to all children up to the age of 18 in the community through the Seamless Summer Option program. For all districts, that waiver expired on Aug. 31. CUSD began the school year under the traditional National School Lunch Program, requiring applications from families to qualify for free or reduced meals and for those that do not qualify to pay. Drive up grab-and-go meals were served at CHS, CMS, Aliso, Canalino and Monte Vista park, and delivered to People’s Self Help for distribution. During the first two weeks of school, an average of 350 meals were served.

On Aug. 31, 2020, the USDA extended the waiver to operate the Seamless Summer Option through Dec. 31, 2020 so that, once again, all students up to the age of 18 can receive free meals. Meal distribution is on Mondays and Thursdays, noon to 1 p.m. at Aliso, Canalino, Monte Vista Park; 1 to 2 p.m. at CMS, and noon to 2 p.m. at CHS.

Additionally, Westerlay Orchids is donating 100 percent of a retail shop purchase between Aug. 31-Sept. 5 to Carpinteria Education Foundation to fund internet access for CUSD families based on need .

Measure U

Modernization for the old CHS administration building which will house the new CHS Student Success Center (formerly Rincon) is over 80 percent complete. It is anticipated that the project will be completed in October. Modernization for the gym began July 1 and is now 24 percent complete. Modernization of the CHS gymnasium and the old CHS administration building will continue into the school year. As a result, interim housing has been provided to CHS administration staff and temporary locker rooms have been created for PE and sports programs.

The Measure U team has submitted the revised Summerland preliminary concept review to the County Architectural Board of Review and anticipates a second and final meeting on Sept. 18.

The project will then be submitted to the Planning Commission which is the entity that approves the Coastal Development permit. In addition, the architects are designing the detailed plans in preparation for submission to the Division of State Architects. The Measure U Team will be providing an update to the Board at the Sept. 22 meeting.

Arts Center grateful to community

The uncertainty as a result of the pandemic has impacted every aspect of our lives like no other crisis in our lifetime.

We all need to stand up and take a moment to acknowledge ourselves, families, neighbors, friends; and, all the workers and employees, both public/private, that are there day-in and day-out for the community during this difficult time.

Here at the Carpinteria Arts Center, we had to quickly pivot to supporting our community in a totally virtual manner. The Arts Center identified the need for activities that can bring some fun creative routines to individuals and families at home for self-care time. Given the economic impact of the pandemic, the Arts Center will be offering these online activities for free. Over the summer, the Arts Center conducted virtual day camps and completed another successful annual Teen Mural. Currently, the Arts Center has ten classes online scheduled for September and October, as well as after-school youth programs. In addition, the Arts Center collaborated with other organizations to do Community Art Projects: Post Cards from the Pandemic and CarpRocks. And, last weekend the Arts Center was part of Mask Up Carp chalk art campaign sponsored by the city.

So thank you to the community for coming together as only Carpinteria can to support the wellness and wellbeing of our little unique town during these challenging times. As your arts and community center, let us be here for you, now more than ever. Looking forward to when we all can meet in person at an Arts Center’s activity.

Community/Creativity/Connection,

Alan Koch, Board Chair The Lynda Fairly Carpinteria Arts Center

Another term for Nomura

Our city of Carpinteria has weathered some very challenging times over the last two years. What challenges the next two years will bring, nobody really knows.

One thing for sure, the people elected this year to the City Council will need experience, knowledge and a deep understanding of what Carpinteria citizens will be facing in the near future.

During his terms as City Mayor and Councilman, Wade’s honest, pragmatic and hopeful insight into our community’s problems and needs, his willingness to examine the issues and listen closely to the public’s questions and concerns, has set him far apart from all other candidates this year. Wade always acts with integrity, caring, and thoughtfulness—traits that are useful during city council deliberations.

Serving as our Mayor and a member of the Carpinteria City Council for the last eight years, Wade Nomura has used his astuteness and discernment to help meet our city’s past challenges to improve and make Carpinteria a better place to raise a family while maintaining the quality of life that we all enjoy. As Mayor, Wade has dedicated himself in making our beloved city safe and beautiful… a city all of us can be proud of.

“Here at the Carpinteria Arts Center, we had to quickly pivot to supporting our community in a totally virtual manner. The Arts Center identified the need for activities that can bring some fun creative routines to individuals and families at home for self-care time. ”

–– Alan Koch

Pulling for Alarcon

I’ve known Natalia Alarcon for the greater majority of my life having had grown up with her. During this time, I have watched her excel in school, sports, and student affairs. I’ve watched her go on to graduate school and obtain a master’s degree in Clinical Psychology. I have seen her impact through through organizations like the Family Services Agency and the Community Action Commission.

Most recently, I am enjoying watching Natalia, a product of our local schools, raise her family here with her husband (another local).

Our current council is full of legacy knowledge, history, and represents a small part of our community beautifully for so many years. However, as time has passed and things change, I believe there is a void that can be filled. Natalia is the voice and representation of our community’s future and how we move forward to preserve what we all love so much about Carpinteria and what makes us special. She is the voice of young residents who have grown up here or have moved here and are now raising their families in Carpinteria. As a minority, she represents diversity which is something I’d like to see more of a presence of on our city council. She is an advocate of young families (affordable housing and education for example), a voice of recent issues that extend beyond our little beach town, a voice and regular presence on various social media platforms that facilitate easy access to all.

I first and foremost urge everyone to vote and let your voice be heard. Secondly, I strongly encourage you to vote for yourselves, your family, and the best interest of Carpinteria by voting for Natalia Alarcon for City Council.

blame or responsibility.

In a stunning interview with Mother Jones editor David Corn, Republican political strategist Stuart Stevens admitted that the GOP in the Trump years has become a party free of governing ideas.

He even wrote a book about it entitled, “It Was All A Lie: How the Republican Party became Donald Trump”. He goes on to say that the GOP has become a racist cartel with no ideology. They have gone from their core positions of fair trade, balanced budgets, character, family values, standing up to foreign adversaries to against them all.

But most startling was his admission that the GOP never did hold them. He admits that he would have not seen the complete moral collapse of the Republican Party if not for Trump. There is no coherent theory of government for the GOP right now. Republicans only exist to elect Republicans. He states in his book, that the Republican Party has gone insane and should “burn itself into the ground and start over”. This insanity is quite evident by the bewildering amount of often bizarre and non-sensical missives posted in our local newspapers by some of our resident Republicans. There is no cure for Trumpism, yet but there is very effective treatment: Vote.

Bob Franco Carpinteria

Trump’s fantasy land

I embrace some principles of the traditional Republican Party—namely, fiscal responsibility and a common sense level of government oversight. Pre-Trump Republican leadership has brought forth some meaningful and positive change.

In contrast, Trump and his self-styled version of the Republican Party have abandoned all tradition and principles and instead he and his Congressional enablers have chosen to live in a fantasy land. A land where there is no Coronavirus, systemic racism, race inequality, climate change, economic failure, voter suppression, wage inequality, immigration problem or healthcare shortage. If you watched the Republican National Convention, speaker after speaker made no or very little mention of these issues and offered instead that Trump is a superior leader, has done so many great things and if he isn’t reelected America will become a burning, crime ridden, anarchist, socialist, suburban-destroying hell.

As a counter, I think that every registered voter in this country must ask themselves a very critical question before or on Nov. 3: Will everyone in America, on our planet and our fragile and cherished democracy be better off if Donald Trump is elected to a second term in office? I think the resounding answer is NO, and the last four years are proof positive of this. I am tired of the hate, divisiveness, unethical and unconstitutional conduct, slurs, lies, defying and denying we have witnessed in the Trump presidency. In contrast we need true, visionary, honest, responsible and compassionate leadership to guide America through its current challenges.

I urge all of you for the sake of our own, our children’s, grandchildren’s and our planet’s future to vote and vote early for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

Are we better off?

In 1980 Ronald Reagan asked the American people “are you better off today than you were four years ago?”

Perhaps Joe Biden should ask the same question today. We are being infected and dying by the thousands from a pandemic, we have an unbelievably corrupt administration, the economy is in shambles, unemployment is the highest in history, civil unrest is threatening our society, uncontained wildfires and hurricanes are menacing our cities, and yet President Trump blames the state’s democratic governors for all our woes.

September is National Suicide Prevention month Two members of the Santa Barbara Response Network share their experiences

CVN REPORT

Anthony Rodriguez is the Operations and Disaster Services Specialist for the Foodbank, a co-founder of the Santa Barbara Response Network and was named a Santa Barbara Hero. As a suicide prevention speaker, he has inspired and offered hope to hundreds of individuals who have heard his story of struggle and resilience, because he is also a three-time suicide attempt survivor.

Since 2009, Rodriguez has led volunteers on hundreds of responses to traumatic incidents in the Santa Barbara area. He is a co-chair for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention “Out of the Darkness Walk” and “More Than Sad” program instructor, as well as chair of “Safe Guard the Children.”

Rodriguez and Jina Carvalho of the Santa Barbara Response Network had a conversation for Suicide Prevention Month to shed light on how we all play a part in suicide prevention.

Carvalho: Anthony, tell us your story and what you went through to get to where you are now.

Rodriguez: Although suicide is not something people like to talk about, it was consistently on my mind. This thinking started when I was sexually abused at a young age. I also lost my father in front of my eyes which caused a lot of heartache and pain. Being a young Latino man, you’re told to “suck it up.” You get stuck in your mind, and I felt I couldn’t say anything. I held it all in. By the age of twelve, I was jumped into a gang and it

erything that had happened. She listened and said, “I don’t know what to do, but we’re going to do this together.” Honestly, I just wanted somebody to listen and not judge me. When she told me that we’re going to get through this together, I started to feel different inside—the way she treated me made me feel that my life was worth it.

Carvalho: What changes can be made on a societal level to help people struggling with mental health and suicidal thoughts?

Anthony Rodriguez speaks on suicide prevention on behalf of the Santa Barbara Response Network. was nothing but violence. I hated myself for, (believing that I allowed) the abuse. I didn’t think anybody would believe me.

My voice was taken away at that time.

Carvalho: Did you go on to attempt suicide?

Rodriguez: Three (times). Two of them were very severe. When I survived them, I was very angry; I didn’t want to be here.

I didn’t deserve to live. I was hurting my family, I didn’t know what else to do. I thought the best thing to do was to take my life.

Carvalho: How did you get through that?

Rodriguez: The one thing that helped me was when I met my wife. I told her ev-

Rodriguez: Sometimes we all need a break. Things become overwhelming and we don’t want to ask for a day off because we worry about losing our jobs and the stigma surrounding it. People need a day to breathe. If we have that support from our employers and our co-workers, it can save lives. If an employer gave that time, there’s no doubt it would save lives and reduce risk of suicides. We’ve been giving Mental Health Days at the Food

Bank since Covid-19. Just a day to breathe makes a difference.

Carvalho: Would you like to share anything else?

Rodriguez: With Covid-19, everything is more difficult. Remember your self-care and remember those who are stuck in their homes like the seniors… make a call, write a letter. If you see someone on the street having a difficult day—smile, say hi. You never know what life you can save. So be good to yourselves and reach out if you need help because it’s okay to not be okay.

Jina Carvalho and Anthony Rodriguez are with the Santa Barbara Response Network (sbresponsenetwork.org) a grassroots, non-profit dedicated to supporting community members through traumatic experiences toward resilient recovery. Rodriguez will be part of the Virtual Santa Barbara “Out of the Darkness walk” on Sept. 27, at 9 a.m. Register online at: afsp.org. The National Suicide Hotline number is: 1(800) 273-8255.

FIELD NOTES

EXPLORING THE VALLEY’S WILD AND CULTIVATED SPACES

ALENA STEEN Fall is the perfect time of year to turn your back on the coast and drive inland down Highways 150 and 33 into the Sespe Wilderness and Transverse Ranges. These rural highways span an immense amount of ecological and geological change in a day trip of unparalleled scenic beauty.

Within a few hours, you pass from the lush, rolling foothills of the Coast Range to rugged peaks and valleys in the Ventura County backcountry shaped over millions of years by tectonic faulting.

Starting at the coast, the road winds through green valleys of coast live oak and avocado ranches nourished by coastal fog that meanders along Rincon Creek at night, seeping around the base of Rincon Mountain. Once you’ve climbed the grade out of the coastal valley, Lake Casitas Reservoir opens before you. This lookout is an invisible boundary, where coastal fog visits less often and the climate becomes noticeably hotter and drier. The plant life changes accordingly, from lush greenery to the silver colors of heat-adapted plants such as buckwheat, bush mallow, and sage.

North of Ojai, along Highway 33, the landscape becomes even wilder and more remote. Seasonal streams feed dense thickets of cottonwoods turning brilliant yellow as the nights cool, and rusty-red buckwheat covers the exposed rock of steeper mountain ranges. As the highway climbs and the daytime temperature drops, conifers appear, refugees of the last Ice Age who have retreated to the higher slopes of the backcountry. This is the land of wild animals who require vast territorial ranges such as mountain lions, bighorn sheep, and condors.

At mile marker 42.5 you reach the turnoff for Pine Mountain, one of the tallest peaks in the Ventura County backcountry. This ridgeline spans the divide between the coastal-influenced climate of the Sespe Wilderness and the much hotter inland reaches of the high desert.

On a clear day atop the ridge, you can see out to the Channel Islands and the distant ocean, and into the shimmering heat of the rocks and juniper woodlands of Cuyama and Lockwood Valley.

Despite the long drive, in ecological terms this mountain is our close neighbor.

It is an essential element of the wildland ecosystems which begin just behind town, home to an incredible amount of biodiversity and a component of wildfire resilience. It is also a landscape threatened by a proposal to log more than 755 acres of old-growth conifers and chaparral along the Pine Mountain ridgeline to Reyes Peak, known as Opnow to the

Fossilized shells are a visual reminder of the complex ecological history of Pine Mountain and Opnow, which used to be the bottom of a shallow sea geological eons ago.

Despite the long drive, in ecological terms this mountain is our close neighbor. It is an essential element of the wildland ecosystems which begin just behind town, home to an incredible amount of biodiversity and a component of wildfire resilience.

Chumash people whose home territory this has been for more than 10,000 years.

The current federal administration has rolled back 100 environmental regulations and protections (68 completed, 32 in progress) to support extractive industries such as logging, mining, and oil and gas development. This includes minimizing health and environmental standards for clean air and water, as well as attempting to open over 273,000 acres of federal land to hydraulic fracking, including on a 40-acre parcel just behind Cate School.

The Pine Mountain forest “thinning” proposal is a response to pressure to increase logging four times over on public lands.

Thanks to additional administrative rollbacks, the Forest Service has fast-tracked this proposal without the customary federally-mandated and legally required environmental and cultural impact statements.

Logging the old growth forest of Pine Mountain is a mistake. It decreases fire resilience in the backcountry, accelerates global climate change due to deforestation, destroys habitat for endangered species, and threatens a landscape that is of incredible cultural and spiritual importance to the Chumash.

The conifers that cover the steep and

rugged peaks of Pine Mountain are a carbon sink, purifying air while serving as the backbone of a dense and complex wild ecosystem which has evolved over tens of thousands of years. Pine Mountain and Opnow are home to endangered or critically threatened species of plants, insects, and animals such as the California condor and red-legged frogs.

The Thomas Fire in the winter of 2017 was a powerful reminder of the coast’s dependence upon inland ecosystems.

Damaged or degraded wildlands are less resilient in the face of catastrophic fire, and greatly accelerate the spread of wildfires. Logging creates immense wildfire threat—once the protective skin of old growth forest is removed, forest floor becomes much hotter and drier.

Annual plants such as non-native grasses and herbs are often the first colonizers of exposed soil, increasing the chance of a hot and fast fire since they grow quickly and dry out in the summer and fall. Additionally, logging chaparral removes plant species which evolved with fire and are more fire-resistant, slowing the spread of fire.

There are several ways that you can help to protect Pine Mountain and Opnow. More than 16,000 public comments have been submitted in the last two months, and the Forest Service is legally required to consider comments until it

In addition, consider a donation to Los Padres Forest Watch (lpfw.org), which first sounded the alarm, coordinated public comment submission, and has committed to fighting this project in the courts if approved. And finally, take a trip out to the dramatic ridgelines of Pine Mountain and Opnow—these landscapes are a treasure we all deserve to experience in their old-growth complexity and grandeur.

CEF gives Sally Green an A+ for 25 years of service to Carpinteria students The Carpinteria Education Foundation will honor Sally Green for her 25 years of service to Carpinteria schools at their 28th annual Carp-a-Cabana benefit on Sept. 12.

A familiar face in the community, Green’s career in education started before she was hired as director of the afterschool program at Carpinteria Middle School and Canalino Elementary. She was working for the Los Angeles Unified School District when she and her family moved to Carpinteria.

“At the time there were 850,000 students in LAUSD. I had been a teacher, and an involved parent, and attended site and district meetings representing my girls’ schools. I was fascinated with the ‘small’ CUSD district,” said Green, Carpinteria Unified School District board member, and retired Canalino Elementary principal. She holds a Masters of Supervision and Administration in addition to a Life Teaching Credential and a bachelor’s in English Literature from UCLA. “I knew I wanted to work here. Even though the number of students was vastly different, the running of the district and issues were similar. I joined CEF for the same reason. I was impressed that the community so strongly supported the schools with their donations and time.”

Each year, Carp-a-Cabana celebrates a Carpinterian whose positive impact on education is felt community-wide. Due to Covid-19, this year’s festivities will be a little different.

First, masks are not required. The party will be delivered to your Carpinteria door, and you get to decide how big the celebration will be. Here’s how it works: Do not dress up. Do not hire a babysitter.

Do make a donation and enjoy the evening of Sept. 12.

Donation suggestions include a $20 ticket; $75 will include cocktails for two delivered; and for $125 an orchid from Westerlay Orchids will be delivered with the cocktails for two. It is perfectly acceptable to add the money saved from not hiring a babysitter and not dressing up to your donation, according to event organizers.

“Sally’s enthusiasm and willingness to support Carpinteria’s youth seems to have no limits, from principal to CEF board member to mentor and CUSD trustee she is committed to ensuring that our kids have the resources, opportunities, and people around them to not only succeed but to truly thrive,” said Casey

“The Carpinteria Education Foundation is so very fortunate to have Sally be such a huge part of our organization and her service to the children of the Carpinteria Valley is inspiring.”

––CEF President Casey Balch

Balch, CEF president.

In her role as a school board member, Green supports the Covid-19 distance learning challenge to ensure students and teachers have all the supplies they need, and rigorous learning takes place every day. “The board wants every child to be in attendance each day, and to succeed over these next months until we can resume normal classroom learning,” reported Green, who also was an instructional assistant for Aliso Elementary kindergarten teachers and an administrator of special education aides at Canalino.

While Carp-a-Cabana is CEF’s largest fundraiser, the nonprofit is dedicated to raising money for enrichment programs all year long. Dine Out 4 Carp Kids program has garnered more than $10,000 for after-prom parties and additional science curriculum, among other avenues of learning.

“Congratulations Carpinteria for helping to provide for our schools,” said Green. “I knew I wanted to be a teacher when I was five years old because I loved little children and being with them. Being with children, listening to them, and guiding them has always been my favorite part of education. I love when kids wave and say ‘Hi, Mrs. Green!’”

Balch summed up, “The Carpinteria Education Foundation is so very fortunate to have Sally be such a huge part of our organization and her service to the children of the Carpinteria Valley is inspiring.”

Fabulous, fleeting and for community good PHOTOS By ROBiN KARLSSON

Chalk masterpieces by the dozens popped up along Linden Avenue last week as artists of all ages and skill levels came out for Mask Up Carp. The public art campaign sponsored by the City of Carpinteria captured the attention of Linden Avenue pedestrians with colorful and creative imagery centered around a public health message.

More than 100 artists generated 50-plus art works for the project between Sept. 3 and 5. Aimed at spreading the important “mask up” message prior to a busy holiday weekend, the campaign’s success relied on a partnership between the City, the Lynda Fairly Carpinteria Arts Center, and Muralism, a nonprofit that employs and trains special needs adults to create public art pieces.

The campaign resulted in a diversity of concepts, styles and themes. Participating local artists included John Wullbrandt, whose mural facing 7th Street on the former Austin’s Hardware building depicts pedestrians wearing masks and staying six feet apart. The free project also attracted families to participate, giving budding young artists a chance to beautify their community with a positive message. Some of the more elaborate images took shape over several hours, treating passersby a glimpse into the artistic process.

Big in Japan

CVN

IT’S ALL SURFING CHRISTIAN BEAMISH “I’m big in Japan,” the singer Tom Waits chants with ironic intensity, and I cannot help but think of the song and chuckle as I work to fill another batch of surfboard orders bound for the Land of the Rising Sun. I am not “big in Japan,” yet an Australian surfboard broker there contacted me some time ago inquiring about boards for the shops in Tokyo. At first I thought it might be a scam. I mean, I make nice surfboards and all, but a request for ten boards—cash-money up front—hasn’t really been my regular experience thus far. Sure enough, the money came in electronically, the first lot went out, and now I’ve got orders for just about as many as I can shape while still playing some part in my children’s upbringing.

It’s a good problem to have, of course.

And what a good thing it is to discover that this craft that I’ve practiced for well over 20 years is still as satisfying as it was when I was first got into it utilizing a storage room at the Pigeon Point Lighthouse where I worked as a handyman after college on the North Coast above Santa Cruz. I’m sure it’s the same for Matt Moore, and I see his boards coming through the glasser out in Goleta just as clean and precise as ever.

This second Japan order is interesting, as the shop owner has called-out specific dimensions for the models I make, with

Three boards in progress, one of them dented and pitted with bits of asphalt after crashing down mid-photo shoot. A painstaking morning’s work, including making a fresh new template, was nearly undone by a moment’s laps in concentration. one-eighth-inch variations between specific boards: one at 20 7/8” wide, and another at 21” (a one-sixteenth-of-an-inch difference on either side of the board). I remember shapers in my youth talking about Japan, about the good money they made there, but also complaining about a difficult standard of exactness. The way I’m thinking of these somewhat demand-

California Avocado Festival

ing specifications is in the admirable Japanese artisan tradition of simplicity and precision. How fortunate, really, to be asked to bring an extra level of concentration and exactness to the work.

The Japanese order has me shaping three of the same model (notwithstanding the 1/8” difference in width, in addition to thicknesses of 2 ¾” and 2 11/16”, respectively). Doing three of the same board is a great chance to reinforce the basic steps—mark the dimensions and scribe

the outline (repeat three times), cut and square the outline (repeat three times), etcetera… In repeating these basic steps in the same shaping session, I’m finding nuances in the planer cuts and establishing better baselines off of which the rest of the shape develops.

One step I’ve discovered is foiling the deck of the board completely before moving on to shaping the rails, (the more experienced shapers in the community might ask, “you’re just realizing that now!?”). I hadn’t given much thought to it before, and if I did, I think my feeling was that the deck gets worked out in the process of blending-in the rails. But smoothing out the rough cuts on top insures a pleasing curve out to the cut-edge of the blank. It’s a simple thing really, but the more balance one brings to each step of the project, the better the overall outcome… in shaping surfboards as in life, I am quite sure.

Another thing my surfing vaquero buddies like to say from the cowboy life is: “slow is fast.” And that’s just true.

Since Instagram appears to be the lifeblood of my surfboard business, I hastily set up the three boards I’m working on so I could post a picture once the plan shapes were laid down. As I went back inside the shaping bay to get the last board, I heard one of the shapes clatter to the ground. The surfboard foam is delicate, and the boat yard where I work in Ventura is a dirt and broken asphalt lot.

So, I picked up the pristine white blank, and saw all the rock dents in the bottom, the bits of asphalt embedded in the foam, and worst of all the huge dent where the board smacked down on a steel post. Did I mention that my Japanese clients are very particular? (I think it’s fixable, but man, what a bummer!)

Christian Beamish is an editor at the Coastal View News. He is also a surfboard shaper, the former Associate Editor of The Surfer’s Journal and author of “The Voyage of the Cormorant” (Patagonia Books, 2012) about navigating the Pacific coast of Baja California by sail and oar aboard his self-built, 18-foot beach boat. He lives in Carpinteria with his wife and two young children.

COMMANDER’S RECAP: Continued from page 8

Unified School District’s transportation warehouse. The unknown suspect(s) used a Sawzall to cut two converters out of the bottom of two transportation vans.

Suspect information is unknown.

7:25 p.m. / Resisting Arrest / 3300 block Via Real

Deputies responded to a report of a vehicle that had been following a caller’s vehicle from Oxnard. The vehicles were both located and an investigative stop was initiated on the suspect vehicle.

The suspect vehicle failed to yield and a pursuit was initiated. The pursuit lasted for approximately five minutes, in which time the suspect vehicle violated multiple vehicle code sections, including failing to stop for stop signs, crossing double yellow lines to pass on the left and speeding in excess of 90 miles per hour. The pursuit ended when the suspect vehicle stopped at a gas station, located on Via Real. Deputies conducted a high risk stop and the suspect was taken into custody. A records check revealed that the man’s driver’s license was suspended for multiple past DUIs and he required an interlock ignition device which he did not have.

The man consented to breathalyzer test, which reviled that he had a BAC of 0.15.

He was arrested for evading deputies and all above violations.

3:13 a.m. / Controlled Substances / Bailard Avenue

A deputy contacted a man and a woman riding identical green bikes with a “Gonzo Cycles” sticker. The two had differing stories on how they acquired the bikes. The deputy checked both subjects’ eyes and pulse rates. Their pupils were slow to react to light and they both had elevated pulse rates. An evaluation of both subjects at the Carpinteria substation indicated methamphetamine use and the man and woman were cited.

Saturday, Sept. 5

10:15 a.m. / Traffic Collision / 1400 block Azalea Drive

A vehicle was passing a trash truck and side-swiped another vehicle. To avoid further damage, the driver backed up, which caused further damage to vehicle that had been side swiped.

10:31 a.m. / Assault / 7th Street

An ex-boyfriend went to his ex-girlfriend’s house to return personal items and a new boyfriend was there. The ex and new boyfriend get into a fist fight.

Both parties wanted to press charges.

8:40 p.m. / Aiming a Laser at Law Enforcement / Maple Avenue

While driving south on Maple Avenue, a green laser was shined at a deputy from the dead end of the avenue. A man was located at Maple Avenue and Sixth Street who admitted to having a laser pointer and shining at my vehicle because the deputy had his high beams on, which were blinding he and his wife. As the deputy was approximately 1,080ft (360 yards) away at that time, the man did not know the deputy was a law enforcement officer when he committed the infraction. His laser was seized as evidence, and the man was issued a citation for the violation.

Comments welcome.

10:54 p.m. / Possession / 4100 block Via Real

A man was contacted in the parking lot of a motel. He told deputies he was on probation but could not remember his search terms. The man admitted to possessing a methamphetamine pipe in his pants pocket, and was issued a citation and released on scene where he walked back to his motel room.

1:22 a.m. / Possession / Carpinteria Avenue

Two men were contacted in the rear parking lot of an apartment complex.

The men were found to be in possession of methamphetamine, open containers of alcohol and marijuana. Citations were issued.

From wine to facials

One local company wrings the most from the harvest CVN

MADE IN CARPINTERIA B R E N D A TA N In 2004, before it became trendy to be green and organic, Kristin Fraser founded the Grapeseed Company. The first skincare line to upcycle grape seed waste from local California vineyards into organic, fresh and natural products made from local ingredients, Fraser says the Grapeseed Company is “something new that is created from the byproduct of wine that is being used in another way to give it a new life.”

Fraser developed an appreciation for natural and sustainable ingredients on a two-year voyage sailing from Boston to the Caribbean. Throughout her travels, the scarcity of store-bought products required her to make her own soap. “I would stay awake during ocean passages researching natural essential oils, natural indigenous ingredients and aromatherapy,” she recalled. “I made a lot of stuff with coconut oil, an ingredient that was widely available in the Carribean. In the Bahamas, the local farmers markets would be making soap old school style.

It was the first time I saw people doing that. When we moved back to the states I started making body scrubs and massage oils for my friends.”

After moving to Santa Barbara, she and her husband began doing bike tours in wine country around harvest time.

She commented, “we were seeing piles and piles of grade seed pomace and realized that we could use it. We started working with local winemakers to source grapeseed waste as a natural anti-aging ingredient.”

In addition to selling directly to customers, the Grapeseed Company works with local spas. They currently develop treatments for spas in Santa Barbara County, Napa Valley, the Sonoma area, and Oregon wine country. She commented, “we work with spas up there who want to source a local and unique product. Spas choose us because they want something from the area that’s different and special and it will be memorable compared to some other five-star resort.”

Between 2013 and 2016, the company expanded into places like Whole Foods and TJ Maxx. When the mudslides blocked off the freeways in 2018, their trucks were unable to transport their products and 50,000 orders were cancelled. “I reflected on why I was trying to get so big if I’m making this awesome locally sourced product,” she remarked.

“It’s a real ego boost if Whole Foods wants you, but I realized we make such a unique product and keeping it local would preserve its singularity. That’s when I created the Seaside Makers Collective and started focusing on local spas.”

Fraser started her first business at the young age of 14. Decades later, her entrepreneurial spirit carries on. In addition to running the Grapeseed Company for over a decade, Fraser is the founder Seaside Makers Collective, an artisanal gift shop which provides a platform for local makers to sell their products. She describes this space as “a creative outlet for a lot of us. We all just love to get together and make stuff—you want to enjoy your

When you come to Seaside, you aren’t just shopping but you’re learning the story and talking to the artists. Essential artisan products are ones you can use and not just accumulate into your life.”

Both Seaside and the Grapeseed Company are dedicated to providing products made with local ingredients that people can feel connected to. She said, “one of my makers was buying scrub out of my house and now she works for us. That’s the kind of following we’ve developed here. At the Grapeseed Company scent bar you can make your own custom perfume and put your name on it. That is so personal because scent is such a personal experience.

The same scent on two different people will smell totally different. The part of our brain that recognizes scent is also where we hold memories. A single scent can instantly transport me back to my childhood—the smell of lilacs blooming in the spring can take me back to my yard in New England. People living here have a connection with pink jasmine. Scent has the power to bring back vivid memories.”

The Seaside Makers’ passion for their craft is evident from the quality of the products they produce. For a lot of creative people, the essential drive to persevere through hard times like the current pandemic breeds creativity. During

Covid-19, when people can’t go to spas, the Grapeseed Company has created new products for home use: the California surf pedicure kit and the Vineyard Rose facial kit, and a line of Local Love Hand & Surface Sanitizers. She commented, “finding different ways to adapt and survive all the changes keeps us going. So many people tell us that we are the first real store they’ve been to since the shutdown. Lots of shops have had a tough time reopening. Some of them had to make tough choices—if you don’t have an online business it’s tough to survive. We survived because we have all the other things we are doing besides the stores. If we didn’t have all these different revenue streams to keep the company afloat, we wouldn’t be here right now. We are going to be here for the community and keep operating.”

To support Fraser and the creative artists of the Seaside Makers Collective, visit their store on Linden Avenue, their Santa Barbara location in the Funk Zone, or purchase a product online at seasidemakers. com and thegrapeseedcompany.com.

The first skincare line to upcycle grape seed waste from local California vineyards into organic, fresh and natural products made from local ingredients, Fraser says the Grapeseed Company is “something new that is created from the byproduct of wine that is being used in another way to give it a new life.”

So how is the market?

Wild, crazy and definitely not what was expected!

CVN

THE QUARTERLY REPORT J O N - R YA N S C H L O B O H M If you are a seller, you probably don’t remember a time like this. This is the strongest seller’s market that we have been a part of. It is an incredible time to sell. But working first-hand with many buyers, I also know that on the other side, the sentiment is quite different. It is a very tough and competitive market to purchase a home.

Our market—Carpinteria to Goleta—has way more buyers than sellers currently. Properties are receiving multiple offers, and home values at many price points are pushing up noticeably.

A change we have noticed is that with the current demand, buyers are getting more bold and risking more. In markets like San Francisco, it has not been uncommon for buyers to remove contingencies in their offers prior to an acceptance. For instance, some buyers are willing to give

up the right to conduct physical investigations before they enter a contract, waiving their inspection contingency when they make an offer. On the other hand, we’ve experienced financed buyers removing appraisal or loan contingencies in their offers. Both of these practices are generally unusual in our market.

At the moment, many people from as far as the East Coast and across the pond, and as close as San Francisco and Los Angeles, think the Santa Barbara area is a great place to call home. Add to that the numerous locals who want to own their own piece of South County Santa Barbara and we have an extremely active real estate market!

Looking specifically at Carpinteria, prices are pushing up and many more homes are selling. June through August activity picked right back up after a slow April and May. Twenty-six homes and 21 condos were sold on the public market (multiple listing service). This does not account for the additional seven home and two condo sales that occurred off-market in June and July, with August’s numbers not released yet.

As of Sept. 4, we had 17 homes or condos in escrow. These pending sales have on average 81 days on the market, which seems long. Most homes are selling relatively quickly, but what is skewing these numbers are the handful of homes that have been on the market over six months, but are now under contract—a very encouraging sign for the desirability of our home town.

He and his business partners Kirk Hodson and Sarah Aresco Smith specialize in residential real estate in the Carpinteria and Santa Barbara area. To learn more, visit schlobohm-hodson.com.
