Del Mar hotel tax to ballot
Voters will decide tax for short-term rentals
By Laura PlaceDEL MAR — The Del Mar City Council plans to put forward a ballot measure in November to impose a transient occupancy tax on short-term rentals as part of a larger effort to adopt new regulations for these rentals by the end of the year.
The lengthy discussion on Monday marked the sixth City Council meeting in the past two years focused on short-term rentals, or STRs, as officials continue to slowly iron out details for a new ordinance. These rentals are not currently subject to TOT, causing the city to lose thousands of dollars in revenue annually.
Del Mar currently imposes a 13% TOT on hotels and seeks to impose the same tax on STRs in the ballot measure. City Manager Ashley Jones said the city’s current code language only allows TOT to be collected from hotels with three or more units, and this needs to be changed to explicitly mention STRs.
“As written, the current code only allows us to charge TOT on properties with three or more units, which would not be applicable for all of the short-term rentals,” Jones said.
If passed, Finance Manager Monica Molina estimates that the annual TOT revenue from these rentals will be around $775,000.
While TOT is generally applied to the total cost of the rent or room price, the council still needs to determine whether this should also include cleaning and booking fees often charged by vacation rentals.
Some community members argued that including these fees in the taxed total would make things too expensive for those renting an STR. They also noted that hosting platforms like Airbnb already charge guests a service fee of around 15% and that many guests may decide to look elsewhere once they see the total cost at checkout.
“It’s just a huge money grab,” said STR owner Gina Mattern. “People have a finite amount of money that they’re willing to TURN TO BALLOT ON 22

workers at the Vista warehouse of national food distributor and supplier US Foods were on strike for nearly two weeks until Tuesday, when management and Teamsters Local 542, a union representing the workers, reached an agreement.
Since May 9, around 105 workers have been on a 24-hour strike outside the US Foods warehouse along Park Center Drive, demanding safe working conditions, wages that keep up with inflation, US Foods’ honoring of the collective bargaining agreement’s negotiated terms and conditions, and workers’ respect and dignity.

and relentless efforts have been truly inspiring,” Allsup said. “Together, we have shown that when we stand strong and support each other, we can achieve remarkable things.”
The Coast News has requested more information about the terms of the contract.
During the strike, workers in Vista worked multi-hour shifts to hold the picket line, which extended to the US Foods location in La Mirada.
Local 542 confirmed that a deal had been reached midday on May 21 after US Foods returned with an offer for a five-year contract term retroactive to April 1.
“We are very pleased to have reached an agreement as a result of good faith bargaining,” a US Foods spokesperson said.

“We’re out here for better wages, better benefits and safety,” said Daniel Humes, a lead sanitation worker who has been with US Foods for nearly 25 years, speaking from the picket line on the ninth day of the strike.

Cities embrace auto plate readers
San Marcos OKs new tech; Encinitas tripling its stock
By Laura Place REGION— San Marcos has recently joined other North County cities in approving the implementation of license plate reader cameras to deter and solve local crimes. The city also plans to offer residents and businesses a Safe Cities program to register their own security cameras with the San Diego County Sheriff’s Department.
The San Marcos City Council unanimously agreed on May 14 to execute a memorandum of understanding with the Sheriff’s Department to place 10 Flock Falcon license plate readers (LPRs) at various ingress and egress points throughout the city.
The solar-powered cameras can cover two lanes of traffic at distances of up to 65 feet and capture images of vehicles traveling up to 70 miles per hour in all weather conditions. They record the license plate number, time, date
and location of each capture.
City Manager Michelle Bender said implementing these cameras will take some time as the city identifies funding and waits for it to arrive. According to a staff report, the purchase, implementation and maintenance of the cameras are anticipated to cost around $40,000 annually.
“The license plate readers, we do need to determine if we can get some grant funding... and there’s a lag time on ordering those cameras,” Bender said.
License plate readers have been used for years by the police departments in multiple cities, including Carlsbad, Oceanside and Escondido, and by the Sheriff’s Department in their contract cities of Del Mar, Solana Beach, and Encinitas.
On Wednesday, the Encinitas City Council agreed to more than triple the number of license readers in the city with 17 new cameras in addition to the seven cameras installed in 2022.

Caution urged along Santa Fe
By Claire Strong ENCINITAS — Motor-ists in Encinitas are being reminded to slow down and follow instructions while construction continues along one of the city’s busiest roads.
Safety improvements to Santa Fe Drive began a few months after the death of 15-year-old Brodee Champlain-Kingman. The San Dieguito Academy student was killed in June 2023 after his e-bike collided with a work van.
The city declared a state of emergency and adopted an ordinance increasing the enforcement of bike safety laws following the teen’s death.
Speaking at the time, state Sen. Catherine Blakespear (D-Encinitas), who helped secure $3.1 million in state funding for the project, said the fatal collision moved her to take action.
“The tragedy of Brodee’s death animated me to work even harder, and I think is a remembrance and recognition of the fact that we just all need to do better when it comes to our roads.”
The $7 million Santa Fe Drive Corridor Improvements Project aims to enhance connections to schools and improve mobility for pedestrians, bicyclists, and drivers, while boosting safety and connectivity.
Once completed, the roadway will feature new sidewalks, a signalized crossing near San Dieguito Academy, protected intersections and a protected bike lane with barriers to separate cyclists from vehicles.

The improvements project will also feature new curbs, gutters, asphalt berms, and driveways. Additionally, drainage upgrades at Bonita Drive will improve runoff capture and conveyance, and new bio-retention cells will be installed to enhance water quality.
Additionally, crews will install new North County Transit District bus stops along Santa Fe Drive.
Precautions currently in place along the roadway during construction include electronic messaging boards, flashing beacons and signs.
In a statement, the city
of Encinitas urged people using the road to follow “all traffic control measures for the safety and convenience of everyone.”
Since Tri-Group Construction and Development broke ground on the improvements in January, workers have completed a new concrete sidewalk and bike lane stretching from Interstate 5 to the Nardo Road-Mackinnon Avenue intersection and along the east side of Mackinnon Avenue.
Construction is now advancing along the south side of Santa Fe Drive, starting
from Gardena Road and moving eastward towards Evergreen Drive.
Work crews are currently on the south side of Santa Fe Drive between the Nardo-Mackinnon and Bonita-Windsor intersections, demolishing the existing pavement and constructing protected bike lanes, a continuous concrete sidewalk, reverse-angle street parking and dedicated bus stops.
Following the completion of the Western Phase in between four and six weeks, the project will proceed with the Eastern Phase along Santa Fe Drive between Evergreen Drive and El Camino Real.
This portion will include a new sidewalk, ADA compliant curb ramps, buffered bike lanes, traffic calming features, bio-retention facilities, and landscaping enhancements.
The city, independent of this project, aims to install another protected intersection at El Camino Real and Santa Fe Drive that will align with the Eastern Phase.
Work is expected to be finished by late summer.

Another tax debate
By Todd MaddisonIt’s an election year, which means time to talk about tax increases. This year we see proposals by the San Diego Association of Governments for a countywide sales tax increase as well as higher tax rates being floated by the cities of Encinitas, Escondido, Santee and San Diego.
Encinitas is “exploring” the idea of adding 1% to their sales tax “to pay for much-need improvements to the city’s roadways, drainage systems and other infrastructure.”
Escondido has a “coalition of community leaders, business members, labor and public safety organizations” making an effort to add 1% to its sales tax. Because the city “revenue has not been able to keep pace with the growing costs of providing services.”
Santee is proposing a “temporary” sales tax increase. Proponents say it’s needed to “build and staff two new fire stations” and reduce response times.
And in San Diego we see a push developing to add a point onto their sales tax. The city recently took steps to cut library funding to plug a potential $220 million deficit.
All appear to be altruistic efforts to fund services we all want. The pitches are focused on funding services that are good for the community.
Helping the disadvantaged, fixing streets, maintaining libraries, improving public safety. If we listen to the words being spoken they simply do not have enough money to provide what people need.
But let’s ignore the words for a moment and look at actual spending numbers.
President Joe Biden says, “Don’t tell me what you value, show me your budget and I’ll tell you what you value,” so let’s use Joe’s rule to see what they value.
Certainly, the cost of everything has increased, but inflationary increases in the cost of services to residents are dwarfed by growth in
payments to employee pension plans.
Public agencies make two types of contributions to employee pension plans. The “normal” payment is a contribution to pension coverage based on a percentage of the employee’s pay.
Similar to private 401K employer contributions, but where it usually ends there in private plans, in public plans that normal contribution is just the starting point.
Public employees have been promised payments higher than the normal contributions can fund. To keep those promises, an unfunded actuarial liability (UAL)
Having a city claim tax increases are needed for a host of reasons that ignore the real cause ... is misleading at best.
payment needs to be made — on top of the normal contribution — every year. Real numbers show those UAL payments are consuming an increasing amount of city budgets.
In Encinitas UAL payments grew from $2.6M in 2018 to $5.1M in 2023, up an astounding 14% per year. That’s a growth rate over four times greater than inflation during that time. And that’s not unique.
Escondido’s 2018 UAL payments went from $13.7 million to $26.3 million, also growing almost 14% each year. Santee’s UAL went from $1.8M to $4.1M in 2023, a rise of 18% per year.
San Diego’s latest data available is for 2022, which shows a contribution of $400.5 million. Five years ago in 2017, the number
Should agitation be on the syllabus?
It’s a question central to the commencement cancellations, protest encampments and building takeovers that have been significant features of college life across California and America this spring: Should taxpayers fund college classes in agitation and protest, currently offered on many campuses?
No one knows exactly how many products of these classes have populated the protests and arrest rolls this spring, but bet on there being a significant number.
![](https://assets.isu.pub/document-structure/240523134606-5120d2652268faac1edaa79a59acf9dd/v1/936943d8695dba3939755476d04bf992.jpeg)

was $322.9 million. That’s a growth rate of 4.4% per year.
All growth rates exceed inflation, and all are increases in cost that have nothing to do with maintaining streets, providing library services, or improving police and fire response.
The city of San Diego tells us it’s going to cut from the neediest residents but doesn’t mention it’s doing that to benefit its employees.
We have an obligation to keep our pension promises, but the decision is not “how do we keep pensioners from having to live in the street,” but whether the need to fund higher pensions outweighs the need to fund better services for residents.
Pension data provided by the agencies to Transparent California shows the average annual pension payment of an Encinitas employee retiring after a full career (30+ years) was $105,085. In Santee, $99,317; Escondido $95,066; San Diego, $90,828.
Maybe the residents of Encinitas and other cities feel this is inadequate and want to ensure ever-increasing pension payments are made.
But having a city claim tax increases are needed for a host of reasons that ignore the real cause of financial issues is misleading at best.
An honest discussion of tax increases should start by using data to identify the reason additional revenues are needed.
Perhaps it’s time for our cities to look at solving the root cause of the problem and finding a way to move new employees onto a more affordable program (as San Diego once tried to do), rather than slapping a taxpayer-funded band-aid over the problem?
We need to have that open discussion now if we don’t want to see these tax increase debates every few years forever.

Not every campus offers such classes today, and what they teach can be used anywhere in protests of almost anything, from support for Palestinians and Hamas to backing Israel and organizing insurrections that invade government buildings to disrupt key proceedings.
But since a substantial percentage of those arrested around the country this spring had no connection to the campuses where they camped out — 60% of arrestees at City University of New York, 24 of 64 at UC San Diego, 40% at MIT and 26 of 33 at the University of Pennsylvania, for just four examples — it’s a safe bet at least some of the springtime protesters were trained in agitation by public institutions.
Here’s what the catalog entry says about “Communications Studies 20, Agitation and Protest,” an offering of Santa Monica College, the community college sending more transfer students than any other to the University of California:
“Agitational and protest communication includes the strategies, tactics and communication utilized by movements to resist or provide different perspectives, including those that have been excluded or silenced.
“Attention is given to theories, contexts and strategies…as well as numerous examples of diverse protest movements in modern and contemporary history.”
The class offers three transferable credits that count toward UC graduation. Did the protesters at UCLA who allegedly blocked the entrance to the main undergraduate library there this spring to all who lacked a yellow wristband learn that tactic in such a class?
Some UCLA students said they could not enter that library until and unless they obtained the wristband by signing a statement backing the Palestinian side in the current Middle East conflict.
UCLA officials did not return calls and emails requesting authentication for that claim, but did say some public walkways were blocked to people not wearing yellow wrist-
The Long Beach State catalog entry describes “Communications Studies 415 – Rhetoric of Social Movements and Protest” — as a three-unit course that “examines goals, strategies and effects of groups that form to advocate social, political and/or moral change. Focuses on how (agitator) groups communicate messages and how institutions of power respond in order to control or resist change.”
Descriptions are very similar at virtually all campuses offering this type of class.
Similar classes are spreading to other campuses, too. UCLA, for one, next fall will inaugurate a new undergraduate seminar “highlighting Asian American and Pacific Islander politics and policy advocacy” that will “allow UCLA students to put theory into practice this fall.”
A question no campus has yet addressed is whether public colleges exist in part to help unify Americans or to contribute to social unrest and racial and ethnic identity politics. Or possibly both.
But there is no doubt this spring’s spate of campus encampments have blocked Jews and other “Zionists” from entering some buildings and spaces, like the UCLA encampment itself. Denizens of the encampment there erected barriers to keep out anyone not in agreement with their cause.
Some participants were videoed preventing Jewish students from walking to classes and while accosting a student wearing a Star of David necklace.
Said Nicole Rosen, spokesperson for the Santa Cruz-based AMCHA Initiative, which has long tracked campus anti-Semitism nationally, “When universities don’t insist on enforcing their policies and holding students accountable, with consequences, outside agitators and extreme students will take over.”
Meanwhile, the contributions of publicly funded classes teaching how to accomplish this have so far not been officially measured this spring.
County, nonprofit compete for Green Oak Ranch
Entities have differing visions for Vista property
By Laura PlaceVISTA — The County of San Diego is facing some competition in its bid for the Green Oak Ranch property in Vista, as North County homelessness nonprofit Solutions for Change continues discussions with the landowners that they say started long before the county threw its hat in the ring.
Around 110 acres of the 142-acre ranch were put up for sale almost a year after the passing of the land’s former owner, Arie de Jong, last April. The county Board of Supervisors, with strong advocacy from Supervisor Jim Desmond, announced in late April that they were entering negotiations with ranch owners to purchase the property for a sober living and behavioral health treatment facility.
For Solutions for Change president Chris Megison, whose nonprofit had already been in talks with the ranch about a private purchase for about 10 months, the announcement seemed very sudden.
“It was surprising to us, of course, when Jim Desmond and the board kind of came barrelling into this thing at the last minute,” Megison said. “There
![](https://assets.isu.pub/document-structure/240523134606-5120d2652268faac1edaa79a59acf9dd/v1/b83144fd3ee89a1c9f58350fabf11925.jpeg)
couldn’t be a bigger contrast, really, between our approach and that of the county.”
While the county proposes a $280 million facility with much-needed behavioral health beds, Solutions for Change hopes to use the ranch to expand its Solutions Academy for families experiencing homelessness, specifically for additional housing and workforce development training.
The organization’s twoyear vocational academy provides educational, personal and workforce development, housing, and other resources to families and
individuals who are homeless or in poverty, have lost work, have struggled with addiction, are victims of domestic violence or abuse, and are formerly incarcerated individuals.
Megison and Solutions for Change have distinguished themselves from other homelessness nonprofits by vocally opposing the Housing First approach, which prohibits nonprofits receiving state funding from mandating sobriety and addiction treatment for shelter.
Solutions for Change has refused to use this model, losing millions of dollars
in state funding over the years and the closure of five of its previous housing complexes in 2020. The organization now relies on donations to fund its programs.
“The state mandate is one-size-fits-all, and the county has to follow that. We are community-driven and from the ground up, we’re people-driven, so when people come to us and say we want a place that’s drug-free, we give them that,” Megison said.
If they purchase the land, Solutions for Change would move around 70% of its operations to the ranch from its current four-acre

property along California Avenue in Vista, Megison said.
“We’re talking about a multiyear development effort here. The academy has on-campus housing, so we would be talking about developing and building the academy out at the ranch with more on-campus housing,” Megison said. “It’s a beautiful piece of property with a lot there to offer, so we’d have a lot of resources for the community there and to serve our people.”
For now, Green Oak Ranch has yet to confirm the sale to any party and is continuing negotiations
with the county, Solutions for Change, and potentially other bidders. The Coast News has contacted the real estate company handling the sale for comment.
The county has paid a $300,000 earnest deposit on what they estimate will be a $12 million cost for the land. Desmond said it was Green Oak Ranch who approached the county about their land, and he emphasized that the county’s vision would greatly benefit the region.
“The owners of Green Oak Ranch approached the county to ask if there was interest in purchasing the property. My vision for North County has been focused on treatment and healing, not shelters, parking lots or any Housing First proposals,” Desmond wrote in a statement. “I envision Green Oak Ranch as a sanctuary for recovery, with 24/7 staff, services, and security, providing longer-term care rather than a revolving door of temporary solutions. The facility will offer a supportive environment for individuals seeking to transform their lives, providing essential services not readily available to those in need.”
The parcel for sale currently houses a popular summer camp and retreat center, an RV park, and a residential men’s recovery program operated by Green

CSUSM grad, 76, oldest in class
By Laura PlaceSAN
MARCOS— Of the more than 4,000 students who graduated from Cal State San Marcos over the weekend, few had waited as long or were as excited as 76-year-old Kathryn Cook, the oldest member of the Class of 2024.
Cook, a San Carlos resident, completed the 16-month accelerated sociology program at CSUSM in early 2023 after completing an additional year and a half of MiraCosta College coursework.
The grandmother and avid volunteer said she always wanted to return to university for a bachelor’s but hadn’t had the chance to until now. She decided to pursue a degree for herself in honor of her late husband, Ed, who passed away in 2019.
On May 17, her children and grandchildren came to watch her walk onstage at the commencement ceremony. Her graduation cap was decorated with roses, her husband’s favorite flower.
“I’m really excited. I feel like a kid,” Cook said. “It’s so important, because I’ve wanted it for so long.”
Decades before she would walk the stage at CSUSM, Cook began her secondary education in 1965 at Grossmont College’s dental assisting program. It’s also where she met Ed, whom she described as her “better half.
She worked in the dental field for 20 years until she and Ed had their children, at which point she took a step back from full-time work to raise them while also working part-time painting houses. She later worked in a local school district in a variety of aide positions and at Sharp Healthcare, working her way up to the role of educator trainer.

Working two nights a week at the hospital and 30 hours in the school district, she fulfilled her passion for helping others.
“I absolutely loved it,” she said. “That’s one of the things that just thrills my heart — to be present, and to be where you’re meant to be, because you never know when you might change someone’s life.”
In 2007, she went back to school for her associate degree in communications at MiraCosta College, and she was looking forward to further schooling. However, Ed became sick around this time, and she committed herself to being his main caretaker after graduating in 2008.
After battling prostate cancer, seizures, open heart surgery, a stroke and diabetes that led to blindness in his left eye — with his wife there every step of the way — he passed away in 2019.
“He was the sweetest person. He had the kindest heart. He wanted to help people,” Cook said.
While losing her husband was difficult, it also made Cook examine what she wanted to do next and decide to pursue a fouryear university education. She enrolled in MiraCosta in 2021, where some of the professors also taught at CSUSM, and Cook decided to apply there to obtain a sociology degree.
“I was like, okay, I’ll give it a try. So I applied, and I was so excited when I received an acceptance email,” Cook said.
Because of her history of working and volunteering with the homeless and underprivileged children, sociology has always fascinated Cook, and she felt passionate about helping people in need, such as women affected by domestic violence.
Cook said she loved her classes in the online accelerated program, which covered topics from family and intimate relationships to race, gender and equality. She said she was the oldest in her cohort and enjoyed
getting to know people from many different walks of life, including folks who were married or had kids or others who wanted to pick up a second degree.
“Even though we’re all online, we get to know one another,” Cook said.
One of the friends she made in class was 50 years her junior, and they were finally able to meet in person at the graduation ceremony.
Now that she has graduated, Cook said she is already considering getting another bachelor’s and maybe even a master’s in social work. For now, though, she is trying to enjoy the moment and focus on giving back wherever possible.
“The thing that’s next on my bucket list, I want to take a hot air balloon ride in Temecula. I haven’t been to Disneyland in a long time. I want to do more volunteering with the homeless. I want to just make my life count and do something that will hopefully make a difference,” Cook said.
Sheriff uses minors in area alcohol sting
By City News ServiceENCINITAS — Authorities this week revealed the results of a sting operation aimed at catching retailers selling alcohol to minors and adults buying it for them.
On May 16, San Diego County sheriff’s deputies along with agents from the California Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control had a pair of minors at five retailers attempt to purchase alcohol, according to the sheriff’s department.
The locations were in Encinitas and Solana Beach.
According to the department, part of the operation was conducted in front of two liquor stores, where a minor under the supervision of an officer in-
dicated an inability to purchase alcohol and asked an adult to make the transaction.
“One of the locations sold alcohol to a minor decoy,’’ the department reported.
Seventeen adults were contacted, two of whom made a purchase on behalf of the minor, per the department. The penalty for furnishing alcohol to a minor is a minimum $1,000 fine and 24 hours of community service.
One adult apparently drove to a location impaired and was later ar-
rested for allegedly driving under the influence, according to the department.
The ABC conducts compliance checks statewide to reduce the availability of alcohol to minors. Statistics have shown that people under the age of 21 have a higher rate of drunken driving fatalities than the general adult population.
In July 2023, the sheriff’s department received a $75,000 Alcohol Policing Partnership grant.
The funds were spent on the communities patrolled by deputies to reduce alcohol-related crimes and to educate ABC licensed businesses, according to the department. Authorities urged anyone with information on licensed liquor establishments providing alcohol to minors to call Crime Stoppers at 888-580- 8477.

Locals honor teen’s life after fatal crash
By Laura Place VISTA —community is mourning the death of 19-year-old Christopher Hendrickson, a MiraCosta College student and beloved Chick-fil-A employee who was killed in a collision on May 9 while riding his motorcycle.
That day, Christopher had just gotten a motorcycle endorsement on his license and was riding back from the DMV when he fatally collided with a vehicle pulling out of a shopping center parking lot along Hacienda Drive around 1 p.m.
He would have celebrated his twentieth birthday the next day. A large memorial now stands outside that parking lot, with dozens of bouquets, pictures, notes and snacks left in Christopher’s memory.
Christopher’s older brother Noah, 24, said his younger brother could be described with one word: positivity. He was funny and caring, a proud momma’s boy, and helped the people in his life who found themselves in a dark place.
“He was just the overall light of any room he was in,” Noah said. “He was the embodiment of positivity.”
Christopher graduated from Guajome Park Academy in 2022 and was taking computer science classes at MiraCosta. He loved his two cats and was passionate about exotic cars and riding motorcycles — although they made his mom nervous — and enjoyed going to car meets with his friends.
A GoFundMe for Christopher’s family and funeral expenses has raised over $42,000 as of Friday. It was organized by Luis
Gomez, Christopher’s boss at the Chick-Fil-A location along Vista Village Drive, where he worked for the past two years.
The restaurant location also held a Cookies for Chris event this past week, selling six packs of cookies to raise money for his family.
“Chris is loved by many and is one of the greatest young men you'd ever have the pleasure to meet. He was a respectful, hard-working, servant-minded gentlemen [sic]. He will be missed by everyone he has interacted with, including the 100's of friends, Chick-fil-A Team Members and 1000s of guests,” Gomez wrote. Michelle Maier, Christopher’s mother, said she and her son were very close and he “could always make you laugh.”
Feeling all the love that people had for Christopher through their support has helped her as she navigates his loss.
“The whole community has just been rallying behind this kid,” Michelle said. “It’s like he made sure I was going to be okay after he left. Even though he’s not here, he’s still taking care of me, per se.”
The San Diego County Sheriff’s Department is continuing to investigate the collision. After obtaining dash cam footage from a nearby vehicle at the scene, Sgt. Eric Cottrell said the motorcycle appeared to be traveling at an excessive speed when it struck the rear driver side door of the car that was pulling out. Along with Noah and Michelle, Christopher is survived by his older sister Krysten and father Chris.

If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold
more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

For several hours on Sunday, pedestrians and cyclists had full reign of the road from D to J streets with bike and helmet decorating activities, a kids’ obstacle course and pump track, and booths with information about bike and mobility programs.

Cyclovia, or “cycleway,” events are held in cities around the world. Each host city closes off vehicular access to a section of roadway and for several hours allows only self-powered modes of transportation, such as cycling, e-biking, walking and skating.
In 2020, Cyclovia Encinitas was the first event of its kind in North County, but San Diego, Imperial Beach, Pacific Beach, Ocean Beach and Chula Vista also host their own Cyclovia events.

Ahhh, another three - day weekend; time for a family BBQ or a quick get - away. But, while we ’re all busy having fun, it is important to remember the true meaning of this holiday.
It is a day for remembering the men and women who have died while serving in the United States Armed Forces. Formerly known as Decoration Day, this holiday originated after the American Civil War to honor soldiers from both sides. By the 20th century, Memor ial Day had been extended to honor all Americans who have died while in the military service. Many volunteers will place American flags in cemeteries to honor our fallen. Check with your local American Legion, VFW, or scout troop if you would like to participate in this special tribute.
Plan your weekend of fun but please be sure to take time to honor those who gave their lives for our country so we can enjoy the freedoms to celebrate this weekend.

The Senior Volunteer Patrol of the North Coastal Sheriff’s Station is recruiting volunteers for its senior Volunteer Patrol program. The Senior Volunteer Patrol performs home vacation security checks, assists with traffic control, and enforces disabled parking regulations. We patrol neighborhoods, schools, parks, and shopping centers both in the patrol car and on foot. We visit homebound seniors who live alone in the communities of Encinitas, Solana Beach, Del Mar, and portions of the county’s unincorporated areas, such as Rancho Santa Fe. We are an extra set of “eyes and ears” for the deputies on patrol, which is our primary mission! Volunteers must be at least 50 years old, be in good health, and have no significant mobility limitations. Volunteers must also pass a background check, have auto insurance, and a valid California driver’s license. Training includes two weeks at the Sheriff’s Academy plus in the field patrols.
The minimum time commitment for a Volunteer is 24 hours per month, which represents four 6-hour shifts with a partner and attendance of one program meeting per month.
Interested parties should contact the Senior Volunteer office at 760 966 3579 to schedule an initial interview.

USK athletes hit restart after school pulls plug
Shocked
coaches, players rebound after abrupt end
By Noah PerkinsSAN MARCOS — On a Thursday evening in late April, the University of Saint Katherine men’s basketball team gathered at the USK Sports Complex on Los Vallecitos Boulevard for a fourth straight night of open runs.
In the middle of a pickup game, an injured player watching from the sideline raised his voice to get the court’s attention.
“Ayo, come here,” he said in an elevated tone, bringing awareness to the phone in his hand.
“This energy made us stop play,” said Jadon Amiot, a five-foot-seven redshirt guard in his first year at USK. “We immediately realized something was wrong.”
An email from the USK administration brought the gym to a halt.
“I started reading it, and it looked like one of those fake spam emails you get,” Amiot said. “It was so unreal.”
As explained in the email, the university, which opened in 2010, will close immediately and cease all operations because of financial instability, as reported by The Coast News. In a notice of termination email to staff, USK founder and president Frank Papatheofanis said the school would be “ceasing all employment” as it “can no longer meet its financial obligations because of a steep shortfall in operating cash” and is filing for bankruptcy.
The sense of shock permeating the gym broke when the team noticed head coach Kevin Williamson through a window.
“He was scratching his head, and we were making jokes because he really doesn’t have that much hair,” Amiot said with a laugh. “We were like, ‘Man, if he is touching his head, this must be real.’”
![](https://assets.isu.pub/document-structure/240523134606-5120d2652268faac1edaa79a59acf9dd/v1/c4cd52660fee4487a995f6e731719295.jpeg)
UNPLUGGED: The University of Saint Katherine student athletes Addison Alsbury, left, Chris Harper, center, and Arianna Rivas. Last month, a campuswide email notified staff and students that the school was ceasing operations immediately and filing for bankruptcy. “It’s an overwhelming situation,” said USK sophomore softball catcher Arion Neill. The Coast News graphic
In the locker room, which was described as deafeningly silent, Williamson confirmed to the team the realness of the situation and that he, too, had been notified of his employment termination.
At that same time, elsewhere in San Marcos, USK head baseball coach Cameron Johnson had just arrived home, intending to spend time with his wife and four children over a peaceful dinner.
Johnson ignored the first few calls coming into his cellphone.
But they didn’t stop.
“‘Why is this kid calling me right now?’ Johnson wondered when he saw the number of Christos Tountas, an undergraduate assistant with the team.
“He was like, ‘Hey, did you get the email?’” Johnson remembered. “I pulled up the email on my phone and saw the community-wide announcement about the termination of the school –that’s how I found out.”
That evening, similar situations played out over and over for the nearly 300 students enrolled at USK and the faculty employed by
the university.
“It’s an overwhelming situation,” sophomore Arion Neill, a catcher on the softball team, said. “It leaves a lot of us completely lost.”
In the weeks since, students — nearly all of whom were involved in the athletic program — have struggled with the feeling of being blindsided by the announcement and the daunting challenge of finding new teams at new schools for the upcoming fall semester on extremely short notice.
“This was the worst way the school could have gone about [telling us],” Neill said. “A mass email at a random time on a random Thursday before finals — this isn’t how I think it should have been handled.”
“I had the ‘feel sorry for me’ mentality,” Amiot added. “I saw people breaking down; I saw people in denial; humor was a big one. The first three days, I couldn’t think straight, I didn’t have the same diction when I talked. Now, it’s acceptance. We are all athletes; we need to find somewhere else to play.”
For Devin Padua, a graduating senior outfielder
in his sixth year of college, this season would always be his final in cleats, but with his senior project scuttered after months of work, there is a sense of incompletion.
“Most of the seniors had a senior project that we had been working on for the whole year,” Padua said. “That was completely canceled, too. We did all this work and research just for it to be shut off.”
Padua, second on the baseball team in hits and batting average this past season, described his experience at USK as mostly positive, highlighting the small familial environment.
“I felt like everything was going smoothly,” he said. “It’s just shocking.”
Multiple USK students share that positive sentiment, but now, with the benefit of hindsight, some wonder if they missed red flags.
“This came as a surprise to literally everyone,” a member of the USK women’s basketball team told The Coast News on the condition of anonymity. “The email felt insincere and cowardly, and how much this would impact our lives wasn’t taken into account. The expe-

rience at USK was positive, but it was a sketchy process, as our bills and payments were all through Venmo, which isn’t typical. We got used to it, but we were taken aback by it.”
According to Papatheofansis, in an email to The Coast News, the option to pay via Venmo was “added by student request.”
Still, there were other instances.
“It was really confusing figuring out how to pay,” Amiot said. “On top of that, I had a professor who didn’t show up for three weeks, didn’t email us and then came back on the last day of the semester, gave us a final and that counted towards our grades. How does a teacher not show up for weeks and then give us real grades?”
“I didn’t connect the dots until after, which sucks,” Neill said. “A few days before the school shut down, they said they would raise tuition, which felt odd. And for fundraising, the softball coach would only accept cash.”
With students scrambling to find new homes, the level of support from USK
coaches and administrators for those transferring has varied from individual to individual.
“It’s been frustrating,” said Neill. “My coaches have reached out to certain people about finding connections, but I haven’t been reached out to – I’m on my own. It’s an isolating feeling and I know other teammates haven’t been reached out to as well.”
“The professors have been really accommodating about letters of recommendation,” added the women’s basketball player. “The coaches have all been reaching out day-and-night, asking, ‘Do you want to go here?’ I feel like I do have a very good support system.”
With the initial shock behind him, Amiot is now looking at the positives of his own situation.
“I’m the guy who weaseled his way into every level of basketball,” Amiot said. “Coaches in California aren’t looking for anyone under six-foot. My former coach is now at South Dakota Wesleyan and he’s been in touch with me. Two other colleges also reached out. This might put me in a better position than I was in.”
Johnson finally realized his lifelong dream of coaching college baseball last February after serving as a police officer in Texas for 10 years.
Losing the income that he relied on to support his large family has been stressful, but Johnson is optimistic about his future, lining up a summer coaching job with an affiliate of the Milwaukee Brewers in Wisconsin.
While he understands the frustration students and faculty are feeling, he doesn’t want the negativity to be the only memory from the school’s final run.
“I understand there is a sour taste,” Johnson said. “But there was so much positive with the 10 head coaches USK had. Every coach put in extra time and several of us put in our own money with our programs to try and give those kids a college experience the best we could.”

The golf world remains focused on our slice of paradise, the locale of the game’s current and future stars.
The men’s and women’s NCAA Championships are being held at Carlsbad’s Omni La Costa Resort and Spa for the first time, and Xander Schauffele is toasting his first major after his thrilling triumph at the PGA Championship.
Schauffele, of Carmel Valley, won Sunday’s match at the Valhalla Golf Course in Louisville, Kentucky, after a nail-biting finale. The former San Diego State and Scripps Ranch High School standout held off Bryson DeChambeau by a stroke for a win, which cements Schauffele’s status as one of the world’s top players.
Meanwhile, golf’s rising players were breaking the seal on the North Course at Omni La Costa.
The iconic resort revamped one of its two layouts to host college golf’s biggest event for possibly the next three years.
The men will tee off on Friday, following the women’s competition, which included Long Beach State sophomore Jasmine Leovao, who graduated from Oceanside’s El Camino High with honors.
Leovao, the two-time defending Big West champion, capped her year by becoming just the second player from Long Beach State to qualify for the individual stage of the NCAA women’s event, which Tex-
Lawrence of the Sheriff’s Major Crimes Division said the LPRs have helped solve over 200 cases, including carjackings, assaults and abductions in Encinitas. He also explained how the cameras have led to the arrest of criminals from outside the area.
“In the first six months we had these cameras in Encinitas, our investigators were able to achieve a 5% increase in their case closure rate,” he said. “That’s hundreds of cases that they’re able to bring to resolution that they wouldn’t be able to do without those cameras.”
In San Marcos, several residents, including members of the San Elijo Hills Community Association board, spoke in favor of the LPRs.
“So many of the other neighboring communities in North County are already using this technology,” said

as A&M’s Adela Cernousek won on Tuesday. Leovao finished tied for 114th among the 156 competitors.
Earlier in the season, Leovao, a four-time All-CIF selection for the Wildcats, notched an 8-under-par 64 at the Boulder Creek Golf Club, the lowest single-round score in Long Beach State history.
Oregon’s Karen Tsuru and UCLA’s Meghan Royal, both of Carlsbad, faced each other in Tuesday’s semifinal. Royal and the Bruins advanced to the women’s team championship final on Wednesday.
On the men’s side, there’s a hometown player, senior Andi Xu of the University of San Diego.
Xu, a Torrey Pines High product who lives in Rancho Santa Fe, recently shot a 4-under par over three rounds at the Rancho Santa Fe Regional at the
association president Lindsay Smith. “I would hate to see San Marcos be the lagger in this situation, because it makes us the target.”
“I know it’s not foolproof, it’s not going to get rid of everything, but it would be an amazing peace of mind for members of our community,” said San Elijo resident and community association board member Melissa Bustarde. Lawrence said the Flock camera stores data for 30 days before it is deleted. Data can only be held for longer if it is related to a current criminal investigation.
Other departments in neighboring cities would not have access to San Marcos camera footage, although the Sheriff’s Station could choose to share information acquired through the cameras, such as a vehicle’s plate number in an Amber Alert, with other agencies.
Data also cannot be

shared with the federal government or agencies outside of California.
Along with LPRs, the San Marcos council also approved an initiative called the Safe San Marcos Program, allowing local residents and businesses to share the data from their own security cameras, such as Ring cameras, with the Sheriff’s Department.
According to Lawrence, this can be done in two ways. First, residents or businesses can register their own security cameras with the department so that law enforcement can request footage if there is a crime in the area.
“It essentially places the location of their camera on a Google overlay map, so our investigators are able
North Course at La Costa, the site of so many big events with marquee names over the years. Everyone from Arnold Palmer to Jack Nicklaus to Tiger Woods has brought a club back to La Costa, steep in lore and challenging holes.
The fresh North Course was completely revamped under the guidance of Gil Hanse and Hanse Golf Course Design. Among its highlights is the par-3 No. 16 hole, which showcases a new green and has a new look that copies the course that delivers a green jacket every April.
In a tip of the cap to The Masters, No. 16 on the North Course is a facsimile of No. 12 at Augusta National Golf Course.

to go in after the fact of a crime, open up the software, see where cameras are in proximity to where the actual crime occurred, and reach out to the individuals who own and operate those cameras,” Lawrence said.
The second option is for residents, businesses and other entities, such as schools, to grant the department access to a live stream of their security camera footage. This would allow greater efficiency and situational awareness in law enforcement responses.
In both options, the department would only accept cameras facing public streets or parking lots, according to Lawrence. Participation in the program is entirely voluntary, and in other cities with the program, such as Poway and Santee, hundreds of residents have signed up.
Council members said this would be a great option to give to residents.
the North Course has two par-5 holes over 600 yards and a pair of par-4 holes over 500 yards. La Costa welcomes golf’s future with a past that few can duplicate.
The Tournament of Champions, featuring the previous year’s winners from PGA Tour events, was a staple from 1969 to 1988. A seven-year run of the WGC-Accenture Match Play followed, with two LPGA tournaments as well. But the pros skedaddled after 2012, with La Costa becoming the go-to spot for top-notch amateur and prep title events. Among the competitions at La Costa was the 2014 California State Amateur, crowning a winner with a familiar name: Xander Schauffele.

A third element of the Safe San Marcos Program is the placement of overt cameras in public areas to further deter crime. Cities have the option to record and temporarily store footage or just have a live stream.
The council supported the concept and opted to allow recording.
Residents or businesses interested in participating in the Safe San Marcos Program can contact the Sheriff’s Licensing Department at (858) 974-2020. The San Marcos Sheriff’s Station will also be conducting outreach to residents about the program and the option to register their cameras.
“I really like the program. As I’ve said, safety has always been the highest priority, and giving you all the tools to do your job,” said Mayor Rebecca Jones. “I think it does take a village. It takes a village; we all have our part in it, and sharing the cameras, I think, is a big deal. It definitely does work.”

Supervisors address insurers, CA policy cuts
By City News ServiceREGION — The county Board of Supervisors unanimously approved a resolution on May 21 opposing plans by State Farm and other major insurers to reduce homeowner policies in the state.
According to Vice Chair Terra Lawson-Remer’s office, State Farm on March 20 announced that it would drop coverage for existing policyholders, “leaving 72,000 homeowners and rental property owners scrambling to find alternatives.’’
County officials said local affected communities include Rancho Santa Fe, Vista, Lakeside, El Cajon, Encinitas, Normal Heights, Tierrasanta, Jamul, Ramona and Carmel Valley.
In a statement to NBC7, State Farm said its decision “was made after careful analysis of State Farm’s financial health, which continues to be impacted by catastrophe exposure, reinsurance costs and the limitations of working within decades-old insurance regulations.’’
The county resolution formally opposes State Farm and other large insurance companies’ decision “to abandon homeowners, renters and small business owners’’ and calls on them to work “together with the state insurance commissioner in modernizing the insurance marketplace to ensure long-

term availability, affordability, and sustainability of coverage,’’ according to Lawson-Remer.
The resolution also calls on state Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara “to ensure transparency and accountability in the rate-setting process, so that homeowners are getting a fair deal and protected from paying exorbitant rates,’’ Lawson-Remer said.
“I will continue to fight for residents, renters and business owners and am ready to support the state insurance commissioner in any way possible as he works to modernize the regulations,’’ she added.
Before the vote Tuesday, Lawson-Remer said many people living in her district have reached out about having their insurance canceled, including a staff member,
with 880 affected.
“We are facing a crisis across California,’’ said Lawson-Remer, who added the issue affects all county residents.
Supervisor Jim Desmond said he appreciated Lawson-Remer bringing the resolution forward and has heard from his constituents as well. However, a resolution won’t solve the problem, said Desmond, who added that Lara “has failed in his job,’’ which is to find insurance companies that will better serve Californians.
Desmond said the insurance crisis didn’t happen overnight — wildfires, inflation, rate caps and state overregulation have also played a role. He also urged state government leaders and insurance companies to work together to solve policy coverage problems.

O’side Unified establishes new magnet schools
School district to convert Nichols, Foussat, Del Rio
By Samantha Nelson OCEANSIDE —Three more elementary schools in the city’s public school district will officially become magnet schools beginning next year. Each school will have its own specialized programming and be located alongside the already-established Pablo Tac School of the Arts magnet school.
The Oceanside Unified School District board unanimously voted on May 14 to establish Del Rio, Foussat and Nichols elementary schools as magnet schools.
Following the board's approval, Del Rio will become Del Rio STEM Academy, with a focus on science, technology, engineering and mathematics; Nichols will become Nichols Leadership Academy, with programming that will instill leadership values and skills in students; and Foussat will become Foussat Language Academy, the new home of

the district’s dual language immersion program.
According to Vicki Gravlin, executive director of curriculum and instruction at OUSD, magnet schools are free, public elementary schools operating within existing school districts that focus on specific interests such as the performing arts, world languages, STEM or STEAM (similar to STEM but includes the arts as well), and leadership skills.
The concept of magnet schools emerged in the late
1960s and early 1970s as an option for desegregating public schools to improve diversity, Gravlin said.
“Magnet schools offer opportunities for students to dig into an area of interest and learn from something that sparks their interest through engagement,” Gravlin said. “The concept helps students to want to attend school and reinvigorates their understanding of what school is all about.”
Today, more magnet schools have begun popping up in local school dis-
Oceanside’s first magnet school was Pablo Tac. Originally San Luis Rey Elementary, the school changed its name to honor the Luiseño or Payómkawichum (People of the West) indigenous scholar whose writings were a primary source of the Luiseño language and culture up to the 20th century.
Tac was born at Mission San Luis Rey in modern-day Oceanside, near the school.
After Garrison Elementary closed due to sinkholes on campus, the district moved students to the former San Luis Rey campus during the 2019-2020 school year and renamed the school a year later in an effort to unify students and families.
By the end of next year, the school will have undergone significant modernization.
Students at Pablo Tac will be engaged in the performing and visual arts, learning the standards behind the music, dance, the-
“One of the real key things here is putting students at the center of learning and allowing them to find their voice, which is such a critical part that can get overlooked in traditional classrooms,” said Principal Carla Aranda. “I think it’s a way to bring learning alive for students and connect them with a really wonderful gift.”
Aranda, who has an arts background, has seen the “lifelong benefits of developing as an artist and performer.”
“Our hope is that students really develop a lifelong love and incorporate the arts into higher education and their careers,” Aranda said.
Del Rio has worked on its STEM labs over the last few years. In these labs, students build critical thinking skills, learn design and engineering processes, are introduced to robotics and even learn news broadcasting skills — all with the goal of getting them excited about science and

“Students engaging in this kind of work lends itself well to collaborative experiences where working together and learning how to build can help students grow and prepare for when they enter the workforce,” said Del Rio Principal Lorrah Hogue.
At Nichols, students are learning to become the next leaders of tomorrow through the Leader in Me program, a preschool through 12th-grade curriculum that teaches students how to lead through experience while boosting their cultural awareness and academic success.
Principal Robert Flaherty said the program also includes social and emotional lessons while teaching habits that help shape students into global citizens.
For example, most activities at Nichols are completely student-led, from flag salutes and school tours to campus performances.
Students also learn how to set goals for themselves while identifying their own personal needs in the classroom.
“The new support from the district level provides a greater emphasis and focus on our identity as a school, so when students come here, parents know what they’re going to get through our program – which provides greater opportunities for students,” Flaherty said.
After Reynolds Elementary School closed last year due to seismic hazard concerns underneath the school, the district’s dual immersion program was moved to Foussat.
The program enables students to become fluent in English and Spanish, which, according to the district, will help improve their cognitive abilities and cultural understanding.
Although they are different from traditional schools, students who live in the neighborhoods serving the four school sites may still attend their respective campuses as long as they register as students there. Parents can also enroll students in one of these four schools, even if they are located somewhere else in the district.

Oak Ranch Ministries. When the land is sold, the ministry will lose 85% of its funding for the recovery and sober living program.
Hannah Gailey, executive director of Green Oak Ranch Ministries, has stated that while the recovery program will continue to operate in another area of the ranch, the sale will still mean a huge loss for the ministry and the community at large.
“No matter who buys the ranch, the ministry loses funding, and the county loses an enormous resource in camps and retreats,” Gailey said.

City budgets for new native plant ordinance
By Claire Strong ENCINITAS —The Encinitas City Council has allotted funding in the next fiscal year to hire consulting firms to help develop a native plant ordinance and search for a new fire station in Olivenhain.
Both spending requests were granted during a May 15 council meeting, in which the proposed fiscal year 2024-25 budget was announced.
The native plant ordinance was approved in a split 3-2 vote, with Mayor Tony Kranz and Councilmember Allison Blackwell voting against it. The ordinance, which decides where native plants should be placed throughout the city, sparked pushback last month due to the hefty $350,000 in consulting fees when it was initially proposed.
An alternative pro-

posal was floated during the meeting, with Councilmember Joy Lyndes offering a $200,000 cheaper solution that wouldn’t include computer mapping of the city’s existing native species.
Kranz said spending $150,000 on a consultant was “not something that I prioritize.”
As part of the same proposed budget, the city’s fire department is set to hire a consultant to find a new location for Fire Station 6 after the council agreed to spend $50,000. Fire Chief Josh Gordon said they need help identifying a suitable building site in Olivenhain.
“There are a lot of floodplains and different areas that we don’t have experts in, so we just need someone to point us in a direction and say this is a viable piece of property that

Science winner accused of fraud
Del Mar student allegedly cheated on STEM project
By Laura Place DEL MAR —Last
week, a 17-year-old Canyon Crest Academy student was honored with a $50,000 prize at the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair in Los Angeles, the world’s largest and most prestigious science fair.
The STEM competition from May 11-17 at the Los Angeles Convention Center featured entries from roughly 1,800 pre-college students worldwide.
In his machine-learning research project, Krish Pai of Del Mar detailed how he had developed software called Microby that can identify microbial genetic sequences capable of being modified to biodegrade plastic.
Pai presented results from tests that identified two novel microorganisms that can be modified to degrade plastic at a cost much lower than traditional recycling.
Soon after, however, trouble began to arise. A group of current and past competitors and concerned researchers began contacting ISEF leadership with serious doubts about the veracity of Pai’s claims and his overall project.
![](https://assets.isu.pub/document-structure/240523134606-5120d2652268faac1edaa79a59acf9dd/v1/02770fe6e248c304754a4a73c9ae1c6d.jpeg)
In an open letter, first reported by journalist Christopher Brunet, ISEF competitors and researchers said Pai presented images and data points as part of his project that were taken without credit from other research.
In one instance, Pai featured an image showing “plastic degraded by discovered microbes” from his research.
However, according to the letter, reverse image searching revealed that the image was a manipulated, mirrored copy of another image that a different researcher had previously published.
“The ISEF Finalist is taking other people’s data for completely different research projects and claiming it as their own,” the let-
ter stated.
In his presentation, the letter also discussed Pai’s claim that he “built a custom sensor” capable of analyzing plastic and determining its composition, including an image of the sensor.
The letter, however, claims that another researcher who created the sensor in 2021 took the image, and Pai used it without giving them credit.
“This is very clearly an attempt to conceal the original creator, and for the Regeneron ISEF finalist to act like they developed this solution,” the letter stated.
Pai was also accused of leaving out other citations for several images, data points and charts that were presented as his own but came from different sources
via a reverse image search.
The 32-page letter calls on leadership at ISEF and the Society of Science — which sponsors the competition— to investigate the student’s project further and withdraw the award.
Members noted that these practices foster a harmful culture for high school students involved in the competition and “unfairly award those who have cheated.”
“There is an enormous amount of direct proof, as well as potential issues that require further investigation, that warrant the Society for Science and Regeneron ISEF to take action. This is to maintain the integrity of the research community and act in the fairness of all,” the letter said.
Gayle Kansagor, a spokesperson for the Society for Science, issued the following statement in response to the cheating allegations against Pai, who she said is currently being cyberbullied and harassed:
“The Society for Science was recently made aware of allegations against one of the winners at Regeneron ISEF 2024. The Society takes any questions raised about the integrity of student research very seriously and is undertaking an investigation into the allegations.”
Pai, also an intern at the University of Southern California, could not be reached for comment.

Old school goodness at Don’s Country Kitchen
![](https://assets.isu.pub/document-structure/240523134606-5120d2652268faac1edaa79a59acf9dd/v1/05fe25dadf1067342746b48e48f7e84e.jpeg)
Given that my tour of South Oceanside over the past few weeks has focused on newer, trendier restaurants, I thought it only appropriate to close out this foray into “South O” with a joint that brings me right back to my comfort food and authentic hospitality roots in Michigan.
It just so happens that Don’s Country Kitchen Oceanside was within eyesight the whole time, and I was anxiously awaiting my visit to this place whose name alone elicits visions of hearty portions served up by a friendly staff.
Before I get into the food, I wanted to get the backstory on Don’s. As many of you may be aware, there is one in Carlsbad as well, so I connected with Britten Doerfler, who owns Don’s in Oceanside with her husband, Daniel.
Britten is a Carlsbad native who started working at Don’s in Carlsbad at 17 as a server. She said some of the story has been passed down over the years, so historical accuracy may be off slightly. But as she knows it, Don Pendergraft, who hailed from Oklahoma, opened up the original Don’s Country Kitchen in Carlsbad and featured the food he loved from his hometown with the intention of creating a place where the community could come together and enjoy solid food and get to know each other.
It’s been told that he would never let a seat go empty. If you came in as a couple or even someone dining by yourself, he would seat you with another table or party — anything to get the community talking, becoming friends and enjoying each other around a table full of great food!
Britten opened Don’s in Oceanside in 2010, and while the two locations are independently owned and operated, they continue to serve the traditional original recipes that were passed down by the founding father Don and his successors.
Britten’s mom was a waitress as well, so she grew up in the restaurant industry, and that developed a true passion for customer service. That passion transformed into an opportunity when she took over Don’s Oceanside, enabling her to turn her love for providing the community with delicious food and friendly service into her career. She even met her husband at Don’s in Oceanside, so it really has created a charmed life for her. They now share the duties that

come with running a restaurant and still have time to enjoy being together as a family with their four boys. She also mentioned that most of her staff has been on board since the beginning, which really speaks volumes about how Britten and Daniel treat their staff like family.
The inspiration for the menu at Don’s mostly stems from the original that Don and his successors created. They use many of his original recipes and methods of cooking and have added

a few fun twists along the way.
According to Britten, the staff is what really sets Don’s apart and gives it the atmosphere they are known for. Their kitchen managers and cooks have as much or more passion for food as any culinary school-trained chef, and it’s evident from the moment you walk in that the managers, servers and bussers share that passion and create a welcoming atmosphere day after day and genuinely care for each and every person they meet.
When folks talk about comfort food, gravy and hollandaise sauce are usually in that conversation. It makes sense that some of Don's most popular dishes are benedicts, chicken fried steak and their famous biscuits and gravy. Omelets, fresh ground sausage patties, burgers made with local ground beef, in-house roasted turkey for sandwiches and clubs, fresh salads and homemade soups are all crowd pleasers as well. I must admit the dish that intrigued me the most going in was their Stuffed Hash Browns. First of all, their potato-based dishes use spuds that are made inhouse. Those wonderful potatoes are the key ingredient in those stellar Stuffed Hash Browns, an idea presented to Don's by one of their kitchen managers, who got the inspiration from a Brazilian dinner dish he had eaten at a street fair.
I feel like I’ve seen these before from a vendor at the Leucadia Farmers Market a few years back, but that’s just a side note. Since Don's already make what they consider to be the best hash browns around, they take one golden layer of them, top it with all the good-

a bit for a snack later that night or tomorrow morning’s breakfast.
It was a Friday when I ate there, so besides the Stuffed Hash Browns we tried the Friday Fish Fry with a cup of Don's housemade chowder. Both were super solid and it’s good to know this fish fry is an every Friday thing. Don’s is a breakfast, brunch and lunch joint and the menu is full of familiar items, and I can honestly say there is something for everyone on it.
Beverages are bountiful as well with freshly brewed espresso drinks, lattes and southern sweet tea brewed in house. They also offer beer and champagne for flavorful mimosas with an assortment of juice varieties. Their mimosa flights and bloody mary's are popular as well.
ness that breakfast has to offer, like bacon, sausage, veggies and cheese, then top it with another layer of hash browns and a couple of over-medium eggs, then take it completely over the top by adding country gravy or hollandaise sauce! I will add that this giant portion can serve two easy, or save
So just a reminder as you eat your way through all the new eateries popping up in Oceanside, don’t forget to show some love to places like Don’s Country Kitchen that have stood the test of time and are keeping it real. Find them at 1938 S. Coast Highway, Oceanside or www.donscountrykitchen.com

tative said at the time that the company was “disappointed” by the union’s actions.
“We are disappointed the union has not accepted our highly competitive offer and that they are taking these strike actions. We remain open to productive negotiations to reach a mutually beneficial agreement that recognizes the contributions of our hard-working associates. In the meantime, we have business continuity plans in place to continue serving our valued customers who rely on us every day, which includes a temporary workforce that is currently in place,” US Foods said on May 16.
Jorge Martinez, an employee of 25 years, emphasized that while it is a good company to work for, wages have not kept up with inflation, and it is difficult to make ends meet. Members voted down another offer from US Foods on Thursday, which included a 25cent raise in the third year of their contract.
“It’s hard to feed our families, rent and all. That is one of the main issues,” Martinez said.
Improvements to worker safety were one of the main demands. Regarding loading pallets onto the trucks, workers say pallets of food are stacked very high, causing them to “dig through” to find the necessary ones. There is also the risk of them falling off the back of the truck.

day of the labor strike.
Geraldo Reyes, who has been with US Foods for 29 years and currently works in the warehouse, said there are also areas that need repairs. Driving the trucks over large cracks in the driveway to the warehouse causes back pain after a while, he said.
“After a while, you start feeling the cracks on your back,” he said. “They come up with reasons, like ‘we don’t have the budget, but as soon as we can, we’ll fix it.’”
Several officials visited the strike line to support members, including Vista City Council members Corinna Contreras and Ka-
tie Melendez and 74th State Assembly candidate Chris Duncan.
“In the City of Vista, we believe the union is necessary for economic stability, excellence in skill, and constructive communication. I firmly believe that every working individual deserves equality, opportunity, and the chance to create a better future for themselves and their families,” Melendez said last week.
Teamsters Local 542 also represents workers at local UPS chapters, the San Diego Convention Center, and the Del Mar Turf Club, among other companies.

Escondido inches closer to housing goals
By Samantha Nelson ESCONDIDO— The city has approved construction of approximately 11.3% of its state-mandated new housing stock within the last three years and only has five more years to build the rest.
Escondido is required to build 9,607 new homes by 2029 and only 1,088 units were added between 2021 and 2023, according to a staff report on the city’s Housing Element.
The City Council adopted the 2021-2029 Sixth Cycle Housing Element in 2021 with a following amendment in 2023, when the city’s adopted Housing Element officially came into compliance with state law.
The State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is the governing body that assesses the housing stock situation throughout California every eight years to determine how many new homes are needed based on predicted population growth, job availability and infrastructure capacity.
Working with the San Diego Association of Governments, the state and county government has tasked each municipality in the county with a regional housing need assessment, known as RHNA, assign-
ing the number of new homes they have to build.
San Diego County must build 171,685 homes by 2029, and Escondido must take on 9,607 or 5.6% of that total. Broken down by household income, the city must build 1,864 very low, 1,249 low, 1,527 mod-
pipeline. “It sounds like we’re on the right track,” Mayor Dane White said, noting he’d like to see the new housing numbers “multiplied by 9.”
Deputy Mayor Christian Garcia agreed.
“We’ve got to make

erate and 4,967 above moderate units.
So far, the city has approved construction of 843 above moderate, 40 moderate, 111 low and 94 very low income units.
Associate Planner Pricila Roldan presented an update on the city’s Housing Element to the City Council on May 8. She noted most of the new homes consist of multi units and accessory dwelling units.
Council members were generally pleased with the presentation but expressed a desire to see more new homes come down the

progress,” he said. “If we could multiply that by 7 or 8, that would be great.”
Councilmember Mike Morasco lambasted the state’s housing requirements, calling them ridiculous, “nonsensical, poorly allocated or assigned,” with “zero practical application for us in Escondido.”
“From my perspective, they’re impossible to even come close to, but I appreciate the staff’s diligent work in keeping us abreast of what’s going on, where we’re at, and how poorly we’re doing as far as the RHNA people are concerned,” Morasco said.
RAIN, WIND, AND FIRE...
“ The three menaces to any chimney, fireplace, or stove.”
Every year there are over twenty thousand chimney/ fireplace related house fires in the US alone. Losses to homes as a result of chimney fires, leaks and wind damage exceeds one hundred million dollars annually in the US.

spend.”
Council members Terry Gaasterland and Dan Quirk said at this point, they were not supportive of including booking fees in the TOT total.
Members of the local hotel industry also had reservations regarding the proposed tax, particularly draft language stating that resort fees would also be included.
Management at L’Auberge Del Mar said in an email that they support imposing TOT on short-term rentals, but that including resort fees would be detrimental to hotel guests and business operations.
“Resort fees are often bundled to provide better value for guests. Taxing these fees may lead hotels to reconsider offering bundled services, potentially resulting in higher costs for individual services and a less satisfactory guest experience,” L’Auberge said.

The TOT item is the second local measure proposed to voters in November. Earlier this month, the City Council also agreed to move forward with a measure to increase council members’ monthly salaries.
Mayor Dave Druker said the outcome of the measure, whether it passes or not, will inform the council’s policy on STRs.
“I think it’s absolutely essential that this be on the ballot,” Druker said.

The council has already agreed upon several elements for the ordinance, including limiting STRs to a primary residence (where someone permanently resides for at least six months of the year), setting a citywide cap of 129 new STRs, setting a three-night minimum stay, and implementing a transient occupancy tax.
The council has also supported grandfathering in existing STRs and exempting them from some of these restrictions until the property changes ownership or loses its permit.
One of the main concerns discussed at Monday’s meeting was whether an existing STR would remain exempt from the new requirements if the owner transferred it to a family member. Several vacation rental owners in the city said they want to pass on their rentals to their kids but don’t want their kids to be forced to live at the rental as their primary residence.
“I have a huge issue with attrition... If we pass these down to our kids, but then our kid has to live in the unit, that won’t work,” said Kimberly Jackson, owner of Vacation Rentals by Kimberly.
City officials assured residents that while ownership changes would require a new permit, transferring the title to another family member would not require them to obtain or live at the home as their primary residence.
The council also indicated they would allow STRs owned by family LLCs and
trusts run by natural persons, but not those owned by timeshares, business trusts or corporations.
Current short-term rental owners continue to oppose the 129-unit cap, which would include 60% in the North Beach area, 25% in the South Bluff area, and 15% in the Hills. The cap would not apply to existing rentals, of which 101 have registered with the city.
Residents said STRs provide a unique opportunity for visitors to stay near the beach and that limiting these opportunities will limit overall coastal access. Many also argue that these rentals are part of the fabric of the community, having been used since the city’s early days when people first started coming to see the horse races.
“What is Del Mar? It’s a tourist town. To cap people’s ability to come and see this unique town, it's so small, there really aren't a lot of places they can come and stay right by the beach,” said STR operator Lauren Ranes.
Councilmember Dwight Worden has continued to uphold the city’s position from previous years that STRs were never a legal, permitted use in the city.
“They've never been allowed to be used, and that’s what our planning department has told us and that’s what our city attorney has told us,” Worden said, to scoffs from audience members.
The city also plans a 10% cap on STRs in condominium and apartment buildings. While 101 active STRs have registered with the city, the true number of operating rentals is believed to be much higher.
Homeless up by 3%, data says
By City News ServiceREGION —
The number of people experiencing homelessness in San Diego County in 2024 increased by an estimated 3% over the previous year, according to data released May 22 from January’s Point-inTime Count.
The count, conducted by more than 1,700 volunteers spread across San Diego County through the Regional Task Force on Homelessness, is a one-day snapshot of the minimum number of people experiencing homelessness throughout the region.
The volunteers found no less than 10,605 people in the count, which included 6,110 unsheltered and 4,495 people in shelters and transitional housing.
In 2023, the number jumped up around 20% from the previous year.
“While a 3% increase is encouraging, we counted more people in unsheltered conditions across the region,’’ said RTFH CEO Tamera Kohler. “We’re seeing a significant increase in people living in their cars. This year’s numbers suggest we have a continuing need for more sheltering options and support for the efforts many cities are now taking to combat this crisis.
According to the count, the number of homeless people increased by around 200 in each region of the county. The numbers also reflect a 44% increase in people living in their cars and a decreased in shelter or other temporary housing options.
“With the loss of federal emergency funding, including hotel/motel vouchers, and a shift toward safe sleeping and safe parking sites in several communities, RTFH is not surprised by these data points,’’ a statement from the task force read.

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City of Carlsbad is providing “Notice of Availability of draft Local Coastal Program Amendment.”
Please be advised that the City of Carlsbad is considering text amendments to its Local Coastal Program (LCP) as summarized below. This LCP Amendment is being proposed by the City of Carlsbad and is currently under review. This notice hereby opens a six-week review period after which the Planning Commission and City Council will consider all comments and act on the proposed LCP Amendment. The Planning Commission and City Council public hearings are expected to take place in fall/winter 2024. Notice of the Planning Commission and City Council public hearings for this project will be published at a later time.
PROPOSED LCPA AMENDMENT SUMMARY
LCPA2024-0021: GPA2024-0001/ZCA2024-0003 (PUB2024-0008).
Comment Period: The public review period begins on Tuesday, May 21, 2024 and ends on Monday, July 8, 2024.

Project Description: The proposed project consists of code amendments for new and expanded airport uses. The draft code amendments specify and clarify code requirements and permit review procedures for new or expanded airport uses, or where there is an acquisition of property beyond the current boundaries of the airport.
The city’s General Plan and Zoning Code (Title 21; Zoning Ordinance) are considered part of the city’s Coastal Land Use Plan and Coastal Implementation Plan for the city’s LCP. Accordingly, the LCP Amendment is necessary to ensure consistency between the city’s proposed General Plan and Zoning Code amendments and its LCP.
The draft General Plan Amendment is as follows: The proposed amendment would amend the text and de ne “airport” and “airport expansion” and allow an airport with approval of a conditional use permit by the City Council only within the boundary of McClellan-Palomar Airport and prohibit an airport in all other zones and on all other properties within the city. The current Airport Reference Code for McClellan-Palomar Airport, de ned in the FAA’s Airport Design Advisory Circular, is a B-II design classi cation. The proposed amendment would also add language that support a B-II Enhanced Alternative McClellan-Palomar design classi cation, as set forth in the Airport Master Plan, so long as that classi cation does not require a runway extension.
The draft Zoning Code Amendment is as follows: The proposed amendment would amend Zoning Ordinance text and de ne “airport” and “airport expansion” and allow an airport with approval of a conditional use permit by the City Council only within the boundary of McClellan-Palomar Airport proposed on the city’s Zoning Map and prohibit an airport in all other zones and on all other properties within the city.
Copies of the LCP Amendment are available for review at the following locations: (1) Carlsbad Planning Division, 1635 Faraday Avenue; (2) City Clerk’s O ce, 1200 Carlsbad Village Drive; (3) Carlsbad Main Library, 1775 Dove Lane; (4) Georgina Cole Library, 1250 Carlsbad Village Drive; and (5) the California Coastal Commission, 7575 Metropolitan Drive, Suite 103, San Diego, CA 92108-4402.

Proposed Ordinance No. 2024-04 would update the Encinitas Municipal Code adopt an amended version of the California Energy Code that includes higher performance standards for all newly constructed single-family and low-rise (three habitable stories or less) multifamily buildings. The performance standards would apply to mixed-fuel and all-electric buildings alike. Single-family buildings less than 1,500 square feet, (including detached accessory dwelling units), high-rise (4 stories or more) multifamily buildings, and nonresidential buildings would be excluded from the requirement because, in these scenarios, meeting the requirement may not be cost e ective.

• Adds de nition for “Certi ed Energy Analyst.”

Tax attorney helps kids overcome fear
ENCINITAS — Most people may not know Milikowsky Tax Law. The owner, John Milikowsky, prefers to remain low-key. Having owned several businesses and after managing his family’s 30-year lighting store, he is passionate about business and driven to take on new challenges.
John is a tax attorney, defending businesses in audits with the IRS and state of California. He has completed over 600 tax audits and criminal investigations with federal and states tax agencies. He is still never short of excitement to take on another case to find what he calls the “golden screw.” This is a key fact his team finds to resolve every audit.
His cases typically involve complex laws and volumes of financial information that must be sifted through. Creating a clear strategy and narrative is key to selling his position to government auditors. John’s passion about helping businesses drives their success.
Most mornings you’ll find John awake at 5 AM, starting his day swimming in a masters swim program. At 53 years old, he is not shy to try new things. He and his team are competing in the La Jolla Cove Swim this September. They also support the Challenged Athletes Foundation, which help people with physical challenges to lead active lifestyles. The team recently participated in the CAF Ramona mud run and created their own T-shirts branding their new team, “Team Endurance.”
The name was based on an epic South Pole expedition in 1914 by Captain Sir Ernest Shackleton. Shackleton attempted to be the first explorer to cross the 2,000mile Antarctic continent. Shackleton’s ship, the Endurance, was trapped in ice and eventually sank beneath the icy Weddell Sea.
Shackleton named his ship after his family motto, “By endurance we conquer.” The 27 crew members all
survived. An iconic image of them playing football on the snow symbolizes their heroic fight to survive the cold and dark Antarctic winter that was approaching.
In 2023, John relocated his office to Encinitas and found a home among surfers, skateboarders and professional athletes who embrace their ideology of always moving forward to take on new challenges.
Milikowsky Tax Law is a proud sponsor of the BroAm beach festival and City of Encinitas music events. They also created their own scholarship for several high schools in North County called, the Fearless Scholarship. They invited high school students to submit an essay to explore their biggest fear that holds them back from pursuing something they are passionate about. According to John, “The purpose of the essay competition is to support kids to take a risk, overcome a fear, and pursue their dreams.”
John was inspired to create the scholarship program after experiencing a life-changing event early in his career. Previously, John litigated business disputes and was disappointed in the litigation process. To find a new direction in life, John approached a longtime friend and mentor, Stuart Hurwitz.
John recalls a lunch meeting with Stuart in 2007 where the two spoke about other careers in law. John wanted to work at Stuart’s law firm. Stuart, however, refused to give John a job. Instead, Stuart recommended John enroll in an LLM tax law program. John reluctantly quit his litigation job the next day and enrolled in USD’s LLM Tax program. Looking back, John says, “Stuart’s advice changed my life. Every morning, I thank God I found my true passion in life. I hope I can share the same gift with as many kids as possible to find their true passion.”

Delight in the flavors of France at L’atelier de Paris in Carlsbad
CARLSBAD — Dive
into the delectable flavors of France and the Mediterranean at L’atelier de Paris, a specialty pastry shop nestled in Poinsettia Village.
Managing partners and Chefs Mehrdokht Riazati and Guillaume Van Cappel have a deeply rooted passion for exquisite cuisine as well as their Belgian heritage. The two have embarked on a culinary adventure to bring a fusion of French and Mediterranean cuisine to coastal Carlsbad through their years of accumulated knowledge and experience.
“Our culinary education and craft have been honed through years of dedication and experience,” said Van Cappel, the restaurant’s executive pastry chef. “With a commitment to excellence, we source the finest ingredients and prioritize organic options whenever possible.”
The Parisian-themed café caters to a wide spectrum of taste palates without compromising the high quality of their food.
“Our daily routine revolves around sourcing fresh, local ingredients from the market to ensure the highest standards of quality and freshness,” Van Cappel said.
Pastries at the shop

include everything from the classic croissant to the almond croissant, highly popular quiches and crepes, and seasonal specials that keep guests coming back for more new treats.
The café also offers lunch items as well as breakfast and brunch specials.
“Our omelet French toast and panini salads are perennial favorites, drawing customers back for more,” Van Cappel said.
“We continuously strive to enhance our patrons’ dining experience in our cozy lounge patio corner.”
Beyond consistently creating fabulous foods, the café duo are planning to implement a robust loyalty program as a way to express their gratitude to their loyal customers. The loyalty program will be designed to incentivize return visits and foster a sense of appreciation, the executive chef explained.
L’atelier de Paris has also extended its culinary expertise to custom creations and catering services.
“Whether it’s hosting baby showers and engagement parties or birthday parties on our patio – or catering for corporate offices and private gatherings – we tailor our services to exceed expectations,” Van Cappel said.
Poinsettia Village has been the perfect location for the shop, whose owners enjoy bringing delicious pastries to Carlsbad residents and visitors alike. The duo have built up a rapport with regulars that they hope to maintain well into the future.
“Poinsettia Village was a natural choice for us due to its vibrant community and loyal customer base,” Van Cappel said. “The familiarity and warmth we feel with our patrons, many of whom we know by name, create a sense of kinship that truly embodies our vision of a family-oriented dining environment.”
Visit L’atelier de Paris between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. seven days a week at 7150 Avenida Encinas in Carlsbad. For questions about catering or other services, call 760-918-3473.
Tree doctor awarded 2 years in a row
Since 1985, Russell Bowman has been delighting residents of San Diego County with his plant and tree expertise.
So, it’s no wonder Bowman Plant & Tree Care Specialists have been named the San Diego Union-Tribune Community Press’ “Best of North County” voters’ poll for tree and plant care for a 2nd year in a row!
He is lovingly referred to as the San Diego “tree doctor extraordinaire” by his clients, Bowman is known for transforming sickly trees and gardens into Disneyesque wonderlands.
Using his own proprietary blend of organic biological nutrition, Bowman feeds plants at night — a technique he picked up during his time as a horticulturist at Disneyland.
“When you feed plants at night, they have enough time to absorb the nutrition, before it is degraded by the sun’s rays,” he said. “That’s why, when most people are winding down their days, eating dinner, and going to bed, we are out feeding plants and trees.”
He’s done more than just care for sick plants and trees, he’s revolutionized both residential and commercial properties by the use of his organic fertilizer tanks that inject his magical formula through your irrigation systems.
In a very short time, this
![](https://assets.isu.pub/document-structure/240523134606-5120d2652268faac1edaa79a59acf9dd/v1/661aa7e7f1560f1b72cd6a02e1850833.jpeg)
program pays back through reduced water bills.
“When you give your body proper nutrition, it affects your overall health and boosts your immunity, so you don’t get sick. The same is true for plants and trees.”
Bowman feeds complete “nutrition delivery biology” derived from earthworm castings to replenish the missing healthy soil biology.
This works with a client’s current irrigation system so that each time the landscaping is watered, the needed soil biology is replenished.
“This is the secret to keeping your property looking like a five-star resort.”
Russell is quick to point out that healthy plants and trees are also environmentally friendly. A healthy plant will be more efficient at photosynthesizing sunlight into oxygen and the healthy soil/ compost helps bring down uses far less water.
He donates his time and expertise for the trees for the Point Loma Association and gardens at the Rock Church in Point Loma, Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery,
the YMCA, Barnes Tennis Center, Chili’s Restaurants, Stone Brewery in Escondido, and San Diego Botanic Garden.
He also served with the San Diego Rose Society in Balboa Park for 12 years.
“My calling is to beautify the earth, making trees and plants healthy,” The Master Gardener taught me everything I know. I’ve learned that when you love something, it’s not something you have to do; it’s something you want to do.”
To learn more about Bowman and his services, please contact Russell at 858-499-9417.
He provides tree and plant nutritional care as well as ongoing routine garden maintenance.

Regenerative medicine is a form of molecular biology that revitalizes the body by regenerating, re-engineering, or replacing human cells, tissues, or organs to establish normal function. At our practice, we utilize cutting-edge human cellular tissue products and protocols tailored to restore your injured or painful area to as close to normal as possible.
Have you or a loved one been diagnosed with a bone, joint, ligament, muscle, or nerve problem? As we age, our ability to heal diminishes, and pain increases due to a decline in stem cell function and quantity. Stem
cells become dormant and nonproductive, leading to a cycle of discomfort and limited mobility. Replenishing this supply presents increased opportunities to reduce or eliminate pain in joints and nerve pain associated with neuropathy. By transplanting the correct tissue, in the correct amount, into the injured or painful part of your body, we can activate dormant cells, regenerate new tissue, reduce inflammation, and restore normal function. Unlike medications that merely mask symptoms, regenerative medicine addresses the root cause of your discomfort, offering

Rhoades School Summer Camp: Experience, Create Epic Moments
By Erika MagnerSummer camp holds a special place in the hearts of students as it represents a unique blend of adventure, learning, and personal growth. For many, it is a time to step away from the rigors of academic life and immerse themselves in a community where fun and friendship are paramount.
This environment fosters independence and resilience as students navigate challenges and learn new skills. Moreover, the social aspect of summer camp helps students build lasting friendships, develop teamwork abilities, and improve their social skills.
Ultimately, summer camp is a formative experience that enriches students' lives, providing them with cherished memories and valuable life lessons.
At The Rhoades School, our educators and community strive “to inspire curious minds to think deeply and live courageously.” This mission is lived through the dedication of our educators to provide learning experiences that engage and motivate our students.
Creating projects that enable students to learn while getting involved in the local community provides them with a variety of opportunities to experi-
ence and exhibit successes. This mission and our goals as a learning community extends into our summer camp programs.
As an educator and summer camp coordinator for The Rhoades School for almost a decade, I understand now more than ever how important it is to continue with this mission during the summer months.
As a mother of two elementary-aged children, I value a place where my kids feel welcomed and supported, while creating epic memories that will last a lifetime.
Summer camp at The Rhoades School provides a safe place where campers can explore interests they already have and discover new ones.
Within our mission to inspire, we strive to provide an array of activities in our elementary-age day camp program that include STEM-based projects, outdoor fitness, weekly special events, fun spirit days, and water activities.
Our rotating block schedule allows us to provide campers with variety, whether families choose to enroll in one week, three weeks, or all summer!
Parents can stay upto-date with our camp cal-
endar, access to pictures showing daily activities, and receive weekly newsletters that provide parents with talking points to get an in-depth picture of their experience. The Rhoades School summer camp program provides a selection of week-long specialty camps, including art, coding, stop motion film, musical theater, and Dungeons & Dragons.
If your camper is getting ready to begin their academic journey in Transitional Kindergarten or Kindergarten, our academic camps give a jump start in classroom etiquette, writing practice, phonics, and math to set them up for a successful start in the upcoming school year. If you are looking for a place that allows your camper to shine in a warm and nurturing environment that emphasizes developing lifelong skills, we welcome you to join us for an unforgettable summer at The Rhoades School.

Playing a giant keyboard with your feet isn’t as easy as it looks in that famous scene from “Big,” starring Tom Hanks.
When I try it at Carlsbad’s Museum of Making Music, I jump from key to key but get nothing. A volunteer explains that I have to strike hard with my heel. I follow this advice and bang out “Mary Had a Little Lamb” on the white keys. (After five years of piano lessons, it is sad to say that my repertoire is quite limited.)
Still, this is a fun way to make music, and there are plenty of other opportunities to experiment with real instruments — guitars, pianos, harps, drums, chimes and some bizarre electronic things that will have kids and adults testing, exploring and playing.
The NAMM Foundation, a nonprofit organization that "celebrates and promotes the intrinsic value of music education," and

the National Association of Music Merchants, a trade association for musical instrument manufacturers, jointly opened the museum in 2000.
The foundation, among other things, provides money for community programs and research on the lifetime benefits of playing musical instruments.
In April, the museum held a grand reopening to showcase its extensive renovations that have created more interactive spaces, learning galleries and historical presentations that exemplify the “many, many ways to learn about and en-

joy music.”
“No other museum tells the story of the making, distribution and use of musical instruments in this way,” says marketing manager B. J. Morgan. “We focus on the people, fami-
lies, and businesses behind the instruments. Our hope is that people discover that there are many, many ways to be involved in making music and that they find their own place within this community. We want to make music as accessible as possible.”
The museum also hosts monthly concerts — jazz, rock and classical — in its 200-seat theater, which provides “an intimate musical experience.”
The Museum of Making Music is located at 5790 Armada Drive, Carlsbad, CA, 92008. The museum is closed on Mondays and open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tues-Sun. $15 general admission; $10 for students, seniors (age 60 and up) and active military. Children age 3 and under are free.
