Paso Robles Police Activities League Hosts Fishing Derby About 120 kids showed up at Barney Schwartz Park for the ninth annual tournament

By CAMILLE DEVAUL camille@pasoroblespress.com

PASO ROBLES — About 120 youth showed up at Barney Schwartz Park for the ninth annual Fishing Derby on Saturday, April 9. The derby is hosted by the Paso Robles Police Activities League (PAL), the Atascadero Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation, Nick Romano, the Black Brandt Group, and the Avenales Sportsman’s Club.

Since 1994, the Paso Robles Police Department (PRPD) has been involved with PAL, a statewide nonprofit organization. After a two-year break due to COVID, they are back working to provide youth-oriented programs for the community.

Paso Robles to Keep Current Parking Rates

By CAMILLE DEVAUL camille@pasoroblespress.com

PASO ROBLES — On Saturday, April 9, Paso Robles City Council held an informational workshop with the downtown parking advisory committee. After a thorough discussion, council voted 3-2 to maintain the current parking program.

The vote included the Senior Parking Permit program that was already approved during the March 15 meeting. Starting March 28, the City began offering 500 annual Senior Downtown Parking Permits for $30.

To start the meeting, the council and the Downtown Parking Advisory Commission (DPAC) received a presentation on potential changes to the paid parking program.

Originally, city staff recommended council modify paid parking rates by removing the two-hour free parking and changing the hourly rate to $2 per hour. Along with the rate chance, staff recommended adding more 30-minute short-

term parking spaces at the end of each block.

Other suggested changes included local residential pricing or tiered pricing, or developing a parking validation system.

“This is frightening and completely unexpected,” John Roush of Park Cinemas movie theater said. “We must ask ourselves, what’s next?”

The Park Cinemas has an arrangement with the city to offer three free hours of parking to moviegoers. Roush claimed increasing parking rates would affect his theater and visitors downtown. He also asked the city to take a deeper look into building a parking structure or district to alleviate parking in Downtown Paso.

Roush, who is also the downtown parking commissioner, was asked to resign his position as part of the parking advisory commission for the remainder of the meeting due to a conflict of interest between parking and his movie theater. He agreed to resign with no objections.

Paso Robles Mayor Steve Martin allowed Roush to continue his comments. Roush asked the council to stop “kicking the can down the road” for building a structure or district as prices continue to increase for supplies and spaces are becom-

ing limited.

Building a parking structure or district has been brought up when discussing parking in the downtown area in many prior discussions.

Paso Robles City Councilman John Hamon suggested decreasing the free parking time to one hour and charging $1 per hour after that, “The way our rates are right now, we’re not meeting our goal of 85 percent occupancy. In other words, it’s too cheap.”

In the end, City Council voted 3-2, with Steve Gregory and Hamon voting no, in favor of keeping parking rates as they are, with the first two hours free and $1 per hour after that.

Additionally, the council directed staff to explore funding for a parking structure, tiered parking rates, a parking district, or a potential General Obligation Bond. The parking program will be reviewed again in six months.

The Downtown Parking Update presentation is available online by visiting prcity. com/DocumentCenter/ View/33588/Paso-RoblesWorkshop-Presentation-0409-2022-PDF. The next regular City Council meeting is on Tuesday, April 19, at 6:30 p.m.

too many,” she said.

Ruiz notes that one of the reasons the PRPD chooses fishing as an activity is to teach the kids patience.

Alexis, who is also looking forward to showing cattle in 4-H, soon agreed patience is a huge part of fishing.

“I try to just lay down on my jacket and wait — let my bobber do it,” she said.

Although Alexis did not catch any fish that day, she said she had a lot of fun, and her favorite part of the day was “sitting and watching the ducks because they go everywhere.”

The most popular program offered by the Paso Robles PAL chapter is the Jr. Giants Baseball League. The Giants League is a non-competitive league to teach kids the basics of baseball and softball and the life lessons that go with the game. Unfortunately, due to COVID, the local PAL chapter had to press pause on activities. But, they look forward to returning the Giants League in person this year, with sign-ups to begin this week.

Downtown parking will remain two hours free and $1 per hour after that

bright and early at 8 a.m. on Saturday. PAL was able to provide close to 30 fishing poles and tackle boxes to those who did not have their own gear. This was a good sign to Tony Ruiz, Police Activities League commissioner. According to Ruiz, one of PAL’s goals is to bring kids and their families outdoors — and possibly pick up a new hobby.

On the day before the derby, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife fills the pond with trout. The Atascadero Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation and PRPD Community Volunteer Patrol were available to assist anyone new to the fishing game.

Anglers were welcome to catch and release or keep their catches of the day.

At the end of the day, around noon, lunch was provided for all the participating kids, along with raffle prizes.

Alexis, an experienced 8-year-old fisherman, won the first fishing pole during the raffle.

Battalion Chief Randy Harris Honored for Heroism Harris was recognized for his efforts during active shooter incident on June 9, 2020

By CAMILLE DEVAUL camille@pasoroblespress.com

PASO ROBLES — On Tuesday, April 5, San Luis Obispo County Sheriff Ian Parkinson and Undersheriff Jim Voge presented Battalion Chief Randy Harris of the Paso

Robles Fire Department with a plaque honoring him for his heroism.

“I appreciate that Sheriff Parkinson and Undersheriff Vogue took the time to visit and present the award,” said Harris.

Harris was honored for his acts of heroism on June 9, 2020, when he responded to assist the Paso Robles Police Department with reports of an active shooter.

That day, Sheriff ’s Deputy Nick Dreyfus was shot in the head by Mason Lira of Monte-

rey. The shooting ended after a two-day manhunt with Lira gunned down near the Salinas riverbed on the south end of Paso Robles.

When Harris heard “officer down” over the radio, he immediately formed a rescue team.

He responded to the scene, where he evacuated Dreyfus and delivered him to ambulance personnel.

“Battalion Chief Randy Harris and his team acted selflessly that day,” a statement by the SLO Sheriff ’s Office said. “He responded to a scene with an active shooter at large because our deputy needed him.

We are forever grateful for his courage and valor. From all of us in tan and green, thank you.”

Dreyfus survived his injuries after being transported by air to a trauma treatment facility outside the area where he had undergone several procedures. He was welcomed back home to Paso Robles on June 30, 2020.

“That incident was a team effort between fire and Law Enforcement,” Harris said.

“Throughout San Luis Obispo County, fire and law have an amazing partnership that works to better protect our communities. The best news I received that day was that Deputy Dreyfus is doing well on his road to recovery.”

Greybots Prepare for 2022 FIRST Championships in Houston Atascadero High’s robotics team seeks donations to help with expenses of competing at the event

By CHRISTIANNA MARKS

ATASCADERO — Atascadero High School’s Greybots are gearing up to compete at the FIRST 2022 FRC Championships in Houston, Texas, from April 20-23. The team will be returning as the reigning champions after their last win in 2019.

“This will be the first championship since 2019, so the team is technically still reigning champs,” said Greybots Fabrication and Scouting Lead Marvin Velazquez. “It is an honor to be a participant in the event since only 400 of about 4,000 teams are able to attend. It’s an amazing opportunity to meet people from all around the world, discover job outlooks, and attend engineering-related workshops.”

This year, the Greybots team is made up of 19 students.

“Eight students started this year. We have five students that have been on the team since the 2019 season, and the remaining started for the 2020 season,” said Charlotte Maples, the Greybots team manager. “The 2020 season was canceled, and 2021 was fully remote, so most students are brand new.”

Recently, the Greybots competed in the Central Valley Regionals in Fresno, which were held from March 30 through April 2.

“The team ranked second in qual-

ification matches and paired up with Madtown Robotics, from Madera, California, and Uni-Rex, from Sanger, California, for playoffs to win the competition,” Maples said. “Additionally, we won the Excellence in Engineering award, which celebrates the team that demonstrates a professional approach to the design process.”

The Greybots have been a part of Atascadero High School since the 2002 season. On top of 12 regional wins, they have also won World Championships in 2011, 2017, and 2019. This year, the

team created a brand new robot named Wildfire to compete in the FRC 2022 game Rapid React.

“In this game, our robot shoots into the upper hub, an 8-foot-tall funnel, and we can shoot over 20 balls each game,” Maples said. “At the beginning of each game, there is a 15-second autonomous period, during which we are able to fly across the field to shoot up to 5 balls.

“We use our turret to face the goal at all times from almost anywhere on the field, which optimizes our shooting capabilities. We spend the last 10 seconds

of the game climbing on the hangar, monkey bar-like bars that increase in height. The rules limit how tall a robot can be to about the height of the second bar, but we’re able to swing onto the third bar. Wildfire, a 125-pound robot, is as quick and strong as a raging flame.”

The Greybots are asking the community for donations to help with expenses attached to competing at the 2022 FIRST Championships.

“Due to the pandemic, donations have greatly decreased, and costs for travel expenses have increased,” Maples said.

“Expenses to the team include vehicle rentals, airfare costs, hotel costs, as well as food for 31 people. Any donation will help alleviate some of the cost to the team and help them concentrate on just the competition. The team is currently hosting a raffle to help raise money for the Houston Championship at go. rallyup.com/team973greybots.”

Your donations will enter you into a drawing to win a $500 Vanilla Visa Gift Card, which was donated

Car show registration includes the Pre-Show Party. “Show cars will be able to park by the hangar and the planes. We think everyone

will enjoy the experience,” Smith said. “However, there is a cap at 200 people on Friday night, so I suggest buying tickets soon.”

The club was unable to present the downtown show in 2020 and 2021 due to the pandemic. “We appreciate that our sponsors stayed with us, including our title sponsor Kings Oil Tools,” said Smith.

Saturday, May 28, 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.,

the club’s annual car show returns to the Downtown City Park, 12th and Spring Streets, Paso Robles.

There will be a raffle, 50/50, food vendors, trophies, and live music featuring Unfinished Business.

Another new feature is Manufacturer Row highlighting local classic car-related businesses. The club is also raffling off Craftsman top and bottom toolboxes valued at $1200,

a prize donated by Lowes.

The club members made this year’s show more inclusive. “Many car enthusiasts felt left out by our judging classes because the cars had to be old,” said Bob Tanaka, the club’s 1st vice president. “I have a ’70 Ford Mustang Boss 302, but lots of people have cool cars that are newer.

We made room for them.”

The judging classes include early and modern muscle cars, customs, hot rods, special interests, and the traditional classic categories for cars and trucks.

The show in the park is free for the public. Until May 9, registration is $45 and includes a T-shirt and a ticket to the Friday Pre-Show Party.

After May 9, registration is $55 and does not include a T-shirt.

By CHRISTIANNA MARKS

PASO ROBLES — Musical theater returned to Paso Robles High School (PRHS) the first two weekends of April with students performing “The Addams Family.”

The show ran April 1 through 3 and

April 8 through 10.

“I picked ‘The Addams Family’ because of the variety of opportunities for students, and I enjoy the book-writer, Rick Elise. He also wrote Peter and the Starcatcher, that we performed in 2017,” said PRHSs Drama Director, Marcy Goodnow.

“The Addams Family” musical first appeared on Broadway exactly 12 years ago when it opened in April of 2010. Based on the well-known characters that we’ve seen in TV, movies, and cartoons, this was the

first time the characters hit the stage — telling us a story through a slightly different lens.

“I think it [the musical] is more about Wednesday as a young adult as the others [versions] are when she is a bit younger,” continued Goodnow.

Ella Gomez portrayed Wednesday Addams, with Cameron LeClair playing Gomez Addams, Amani Arellano playing Morticia Addams, Danny Perez playing Uncle Fester, Dylan Saunders playing Grandma, and Molli Nicolds playing Pugsley

ATA S CA D ERO — Early Bird tickets to the 25th Atascadero Lakeside Wine Festival are now available. Tickets cost $60 until April 30. The Festival will be held on Saturday, June 25, from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Atascadero Lake Park and Charles Paddock Zoo.

Celebrating its 25th

year, the Festival features over 100 wineries, breweries, food purveyors, and art exhibitors. Attendees may bring a blanket and low-back chairs to enjoy the live music by Erin and the Earthquakes, Chris Beland, and Déjà vu.

“Why drive all over Paso Robles, Templeton, and Atascadero trying to find your favorite winery when you can go to the beautiful Atascadero Lake Park and try over 80 wineries, breweries, cideries, and distilleries all in one place? You can shop and dance, too,” says Gail Kudlac, Festival committee chair.

Barbie Butz is a founding member of the Festival. “I’m thrilled that we are able to celebrate the 25th anniversary of an event that highlights our community and surrounding areas.

What began as ‘Cabernet and Cousins’ 25 years ago has now grown into a truly notable festival. We want to thank everyone, including our artists and commercial vendors, who have helped us grow to be one of the most popular festivals around.”

A portion of the proceeds benefits the Char les Paddock Zoo to support its new sloth and alpaca exhibit.

“The cast and some of the crew have been working on the show since January. We rehearse five days a week, and there were multiple rehearsals going on simultaneously. The students worked with our Choreographer Courtney Brock, Vocal Director Regan Rowins, and Vocal Assistant Haley Talbert, and myself to learn the show,” stated Goodnow.

Though COVID didn’t slow PRHS’s drama department down, it made them shift how they put shows on. From performing “A Christmas Carol” as a radio play that aired on KPRL in December of 2020, performing “Mamma Mia!” their postponed spring 2020 show in the spring of 2021 with the original casts outside, to their fall 2021 play, “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time” with the audience in masks. The drama department also

performed two shows for elementary kids during that time. “The Addams Family” is the drama department’s official return to normal.

“We rehearsed and auditioned in masks, so it wasn’t as normal as it could have been. We felt extremely excited that the mask mandate was removed before performance time! It was overwhelming to get to perform the way we used to,” added Goodnow. “We have many traditions during show time that really make an impact on our students, and it felt wonderful to get the opportunity to do them. The students are very connected to each other and this department, and it makes for an amazing show.”

Over its two-weekend run, “The Addams Family” had three shows sell out completely, with multiple standing ovations and audiences filled with enthusiasm.

“This group of students worked so hard to give our audiences a show that didn’t look like a ‘high school’ production. They have respect for each other, the department, and the work we are doing. I am so proud and thrilled to be back,” concluded Goodnow.

Shows will take place at Atascadero High School Theater, located at 1 High School Hill Rd in Atascadero, on May 6, 7, 13, and 14 at 7 p.m., with a 2 p.m. matinee showing on May 7 and 14.

Ticket prices are $10 for all and can be purchased at brownpapertickets.com or at the door.

“No Room for a Picture on the Blank Wall,” written

by David R. Remschel and directed by Shawna Volpa, highlights Peter Bunther, a middle-aged man who is a successful photographer and is supported by his loving wife, Rosemary. However, things quickly change when Peter can no longer see one of his oldest photographs.

Rosemary’s attempts to help her husband are interrupted by the intervention of the Memory Removal Company (MRC), which is a representation of Peter’s dementia progressing. The MRC begins to take away Peter’s life until everything is gone. In the end, Peter has to fight for the memories to not fall apart.

“Both the students and I were unanimous in our decision to produce this play, not only to bring about the much-needed awareness for a disease that affects so many but to share this beautifully written and heartwarming play,” said Shawna Volpa, AHS theater instructor, and director. “The cast and crew have been working hard; it is truly well-done and captivating!”

Atascadero High School is proud to support the Alzheimer’s Association, California Central Coast

Chapter by donating 10 percent of proceeds from the production, as well as all money raised through their fundraiser through The Longest Day. To donate to their fundraiser, visit alz.org/tld and search “AHS Theater.”

“Alzheimer’s and all other dementia impacts over 6 million Americans, as well as their family members and friends,” said Stephanie Foster, development director at the Alzheimer’s Association California Central Coast Chapter. “It is inspiring to see younger generations start the conversation about it and help to bring awareness and funds for both care and a cure.”

SLO County Moves Ahead on Elections to Fill Vacancies Supervisors to pursue county charter with sole purpose to allow voters to fill empty positions

By MIKE CHALDU

SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY — During a special meeting called on April 5, the San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors voted to move forward on establishing a charter with the purpose of requiring any midterm vacancies to be elected by county voters.

The subject of filling board vacancies came up during the board’s regular meeting on Feb. 15, when supervisors considered various options and directed staff to draft a charter where vacancies in any elected office are to be filled by election where the remaining term of office is 180 days or more.

The current county policy is for board vacancies to be filled via appointment by the governor of California or the board. District 3 Supervisor Dawn Ortiz-Legg was appointed to the board by Gov. Gavin Newsom in November 2020 after the death of previous Supervisor Adam Hill.

To begin the meeting, Assistant County Counsel Jon Ansolabehere outlined the process of adopting a charter and establishing a policy of filling a vacancy with an election.

He said the deadline for the supervisors to put a measure on the November ballot for establishment of a county charter was June 21, and estimated the cost to submit a charter to voters to be $353,000.

Ansolabehere also estimated the cost of a special election to be $354,000 (for a supervisor’s seat) and $1 million (for a countywide election). If the election was able to be consolidated with a general election, he said the costs would be between $66,500 and $313,000, respectively.

Included in Ansolabehere’s presentation was an alternative policy for special elections to be called if the vacancy occurs 365 days or more from the end of the term (instead of 180 days).

After the presentation, District 1 Supervisor John Peschong wanted to confirm that the supervisors were seeking to establish the charter only for elections, with Ansolabehere agreeing that was the case.

During public comment, most of the speakers were in favor of having elections to pick vacancies, but were concerned about other aspects of having

the charter.

“The electorate should be the ones choosing who will fill the vacancy,” said Sara Sims, who lives in the 2nd District. “I am concerned about changing our county from general law to a charter county as it opens the door to unlimited amendments.”

Many other speakers agreed with that sentiment.

Earlier, Cindy Murr had called the idea of a charter a “two-edged sword.”

Another recurring theme in public comment was that, along with the charter, the supervisors should also established an independent redistricting commission.

Patricia Gomez, a member of the group San Luis Obispo County Citizens for Good Government, was one who backed the idea.

“Independent redistricting commissions are not a new concept,” she said. “They exist because they work and they give voice to citizens.”

After public comment, the board seemed ready to go forward with the 365-or-more standard in determining an election, with an election being called in 30 days or less, not 60. The one aspect up for debate was on what to do if the vacancy happens in less than 365 days.

District 5 Supervisor Debbie Arnold proposed

SEX CRIME

to keep the vacancy open until the next general election, despite Gibson’s objection to holding the vacancy open so long.

District 2 Supervisor BruceGibson and Ortiz Legg were in agreement with establishing an independent redistricting board.

“The redistricting commission is critical,” Ortiz Legg said. “It’s the only way we can avoid gerrymandering.”

However, that view met with opposition with the other board members.

“I’m against passing our job off to people who haven’t been elected,” Arnold said. “I think we’re capable of doing this job; if we’re elected by our constituents, then they have the confidence we can do this job.”

Gibson motioned for the establishment of an independent redistricting commission, but it was rejected 3-2, with only he and Ortiz-Legg voting for it.

The board then voted 3-2 (with Gibson and Ortiz Legg dissenting) to move ahead with the charter, with the last day to submit charter being June 21.

The board will revisit the topic at the May 17 regular meeting.

By CAMILLE DeVAUL

ATASCADERO — Two San Luis Obispo County business owners have been accused of sexual assault by multiple women. The accusations came to light after a former San Luis Obispo County resident came forward with her sexual assault story on social media at the end of March.

Former San Luis Obispo resident Ash Riddell (31) posted to Instagram accusing Nate Abate, owner of Nate’s Barbershop in Atascadero, and Julian Contreras, owner of Kin Coffee in San Luis Obispo, of sexual assault in August of 2012. Riddell said she felt more comfortable sharing her story once she left the state.

Since Riddell came forward, several women have shared similar stories on social media, accusing Contreras and Abate of sexual assault.

According to Riddell’s social media, more than 31 other women have contacted her to share their own experiences with Contreras and Abate spanning from 2008 to 2019, with some of them being minors.

from community members sharing disturbing stories of sexual assault.

SLOPD asks anyone with information to contact SLOPD at (805) 781-7312.

Additionally, SLOPD posted: “The City takes any report of sexual assault seriously and will investigate to the fullest extent of the law. Survivor support and resources are available in our community through Lumina Alliance at luminaalliance.org or their Crisis and Information Line at (805) 545-8888.”

On April 1, Contreras posted a statement to the Kin Coffee Instagram page (@kin.slo). In the post, Contreras says, “There have been situations brought to my attention.”

He goes on to say Kin Coffee was created by him and the Kin family, and the Kin Coffee Bar has never had an affiliation with Abate.

“We do not tolerate any sort of malicious behavior,” he continued in the post. “I, myself, will take time to address these matters personally for the safety of the staff and the people involved ... My team has spoken up and would like to take action and has decided to donate $3,000 to RISE (riseslo.org) in hopes that it will

More information on the organization can be found at luminaalliance.org Then on April 2, Kin management announced on their social media page that Contreras is stepping down from Kin Coffee Bar. The coffee bar is now being run by its employees. There was no further explanation as to why Contreras stepped down.

Since the recent allegations, Nates Barbershop’s social media page (@ natesbarbershop805) has been made private or disabled.

Atascadero News reached out to Abate for comment on the current allegations. He responded to say “no comment.”

Shortly after the latest accusations, Abate admitted to a local publication that this isn’t the first time he has been accused of sexual assault — referring to a 2012 arrest accusing him of sexually assaulting a minor. No conviction came following the arrest.

This developing story will be updated as new information is available.

STAFF REPORT

TEMPLETON — Now is the time to begin planning for the removal of weeds around your property. Remember, the earlier you start in the year, the easier to mitigate them. As soon as the weather turns warm, weeds become an extreme fire hazard not only for you but your neighbors as well. Remember, in California, weed abatement is almost a year-round endeavor. A good rule of thumb would be to have this work finished by the end of April.

If you are an out-of-town property owner, now is the time to schedule the work to be done and verify that it has been completed before the weeds turn brown. Depending on the rainfall, fire breaks may require multiple disking or mowing to maintain their integrity throughout the summer.

All properties within the Templeton Community Services District boundaries, including yards and lots, must be cleared of all combustible vegetation, such as dead leaves, weeds, brush, and tree limbs by May 1 and maintained through Nov. 30. Property owners are also asked to remove excess trash, wood or other combustibles from their property that is next to their house or other structures to keep a fire-safe environment.

Due to spring rains, there will be

According to reports, a DUI is not suspected at this time and CHP says the crash is still under investigation.

This is an ongoing story that will be updated when new information is available.

an increase in vegetation which can become a potential fire hazard as it dries. Therefore, property owners are asked to plan on multiple cuttings this year to keep grasses and weeds down to fire-safe levels. Below are some key weed abatement requirements: • Do not mow after 10 a.m. if the temperature exceeds 80 degrees.

• Mowers must be set at a maximum height of three inches unless conditions require a greater height.

• All equipment used for weed abatement work must be equipped with proper spark arresters, mufflers, etc.

• A fire extinguisher of pressurized water or back-pump type is required on equipment for immediate accessibility and use.

• Property owners are responsible for weeds from the centerline of the public road and through their entire property.

Parcels that are three acres or less in size must be mowed or disked completely. Parcels three acres or larger must have at a minimum a soil firebreak around the perimeter and cross breaks at intervals breaking each block in no greater than one acre (or as directed by the Fire Department).

Firebreaks shall be a minimum of 30-feet in width at perimeters and cross breaks and 50-feet minimum around structures. Downslope clearances from structures shall be a minimum of 100 feet. Clearances around and under oak trees shall be a minimum of 30 feet.

Templeton Fire and Emergency Services thanks all participants for helping to make Templeton a fire-safe community.

The Caregiver Experience and How to Prevent Burnout: Part One

By CANDICE SANDERS, Executive Director

C

aregivers to someone with cancer spend an average of eight hours per day providing care to their loved one. The demands of caregiving depend on several different things: stage of disease, types of symptoms experienced, treatment side effects, and more. A caregiver’s response to the cancer diagnosis, treatment, and journey itself can be just as important as how the patient responds. This makes the need for physical, social, and emotional support for caregivers essential.

Here are the first three of 10 tips to help caregivers find balance, support, and connection—part two of three to follow next week.

1. Find your support system When a friend or loved one is diagnosed with cancer, it’s an emotional time. Sometimes it can be difficult to talk with your loved one about your feelings, because you both have so much going on. Many find one of the best ways to cope with stress, uncertainty, and loneliness is to talk to others who share similar experiences. To find your own support system, Cancer Support Community – CA Central Coast has programs that include support groups, yoga classes, and educational workshops.

It is important to share your unique experiences and offer insights, coping strategies, and inspiration.

“People talk about a caregiver, but you don’t really know what a caregiver is until you’re really in that role … I learned that a caregiver wears many hats: listener, observer, protector, planner, anticipator, the backup brain to the patient, the organizer, the strong one, the levelheaded one.

The caregiver is the go-to person all the time … I quickly realized that I could not do it all and that I needed help.”

– Sheri, bereaved/former caregiver for a close friend 2. Gather information There is truth to the phrase “Knowledge is power.” There’s no way to completely grasp the ups and downs of a cancer diagnosis and treatment — and you shouldn’t be expected to. Being armed with knowledge may

help you accommodate your loved one’s needs and help you know what to expect.

Cancer Support Community – CA Central Coast will also be hosting a live educational program via Zoom, on “The Caregiver Experience” on Tuesday, April 26, at 6 p.m.

The education aims to provide an overview of common caregiver experiences, including the challenges of caregiving, as well as tips and techniques for caregiver self-care. All are welcome to tune in, please email programs@cscslo.org to get the Zoom link.

The Cancer Support Community’s Helpline is here to help by offering free navigation for cancer patients or their loved ones. Our navigators can be reached toll-free at (888)793-9355 or online via our live chat service Monday to Friday from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m.

PDT, and Saturday and Sunday from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. PDT. 3. Recognize a “new normal” Patients and caregivers alike report feeling a loss of control after a cancer diagnosis. Many caregivers are asked for advice about medical decisions or managing family finances. Some caregivers also need to take on new day-to-day chores. It is likely that your tasks as a caregiver will create new routines— after all, you’re taking on a new role in your loved one’s life as well as your own.

Maintaining a balance between your loved one’s disease and the daily activities of your own life can be a challenge. It may be helpful to identify the parts of your life that you can still control, such as your own health and relationships. In doing this, you will be able to create a strategy for integrating new routines with old ones. It may also help to acknowledge that your home life, finances, and friendships may change for a period of time. Sometimes the laundry might not get done, or maybe takeout will replace home cooking. Try to manage each day’s priority as it comes.

Take a deep breath and realize that the support you provide is priceless.

Caregiving Tip: Make a list of all the names, phone numbers, and email addresses of everyone on the cancer care team and put it in a place where it’s readily available, should you need it. Make copies for anyone who is supporting you in your caregiver role.

Part two of three will follow next week.

fulfillment and riding high when he tragically died so suddenly. As we try to move on, there is this consolation: We can be confident that when Ry died in his sleep, he was a man certainly feeling good about life and himself.

Ry is survived by his wife Megan, son Elias, daughter Lily, stepson Tayton, stepdaughter Coral, father George “Dew” Beardsley (stepmother Jacquelin), mother Denise Dingman (stepfather Craig), stepbrother Shaun Behrens (Meghan), nephew Jackson and niece June, stepsister Kristen Black (Alexis) and nieces Mackenzie and Audrey.

Arrangements are by Blue Sky Cremation Service. There will be a Remembrance of Ry BBQ event to be held at the Beardsley Ranch in Templeton on April 19 at 4 pm.

Guests should contact by email meganmc2213@gmail.com.

ool winds and lower temperatures hit us this week as we continue enjoying the spring weather, which is far too chilly for me, so it will be nice to see 70-plus weather again next week.

Now that the communities are reopening, our events calendar is filling up. Be sure to read through the calendar events on page A15.

Election season has begun, and to start us off, The Atascadero Chamber of Commerce will host an in-person candidates forum for the four individuals vying for the seat of Supervisor for San Luis Obispo County’s realigned District 2.

District 2, currently held by Bruce Gibson, now includes Atascadero, Cambria, Cayucos, Lake Nacimiento, San Miguel, and West Templeton.

Publisher’s Letter The candidates who will be attending the forum are incumbent Bruce Gibson, Bruce Jones, Geoff Auslen, and John Whitworth. The forum will take place on Thursday, April 28, at the Atascadero High School gym.

This event is free and open to the public.

Debbie Arnold, who has been Atascadero’s District Supervisor for many years, will remain in her seat for the 5th District until Jan. 1, 2025. The 5th District now includes Los Osos, southern San Luis Obispo, Avila Beach, and Pismo Beach.

The Paso Robles Chamber of

Commerce annual Award Gala returns this year after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 restrictions. We are excited to celebrate with everyone honoring the Roblan’s of the Year, Patricia Bland, 2020, and Brian Thorndyke, 2021. In addition, the award for 2021 Beautification is Central Coast Beer Co., and this year, due to the merger with the Templeton Chamber of Commerce, we get to celebrate with one of our favorites McPhee’s Grill; who won Business of the Year! Huge congratulations to all the honorees.

In local politics, the Paso

Robles City Council held an informational workshop with the downtown parking advisory committee last Saturday, and after much discussion, the council voted to maintain the current parking program. Let us know your thoughts by writing us at editor@pasoroblespress.com.

At last night’s City Council meeting in Atascadero, the Council voted to approve the North San Luis Obispo County Broadband Strategic Plan Memorandum of Understanding between Atascadero and Paso Robles for the two cities to bring larger dollar amounts

Respecting The Code

CONNIE PILLSBURY COMMENTARY

W

hen I stop at a stop sign and wait for you to drive through first, when I stay in my lane and drive on the right side of the road, I am acting in deference to a CODE, a code that you and I follow in order to ensure each other’s safety. Our daily life is

ordered in accordance with both written and unwritten codes about how we prioritize our time, how we do business and how we treat each other.

The first written code, the Code of Hammurabi in 1759 B.C., was carved in stone to keep order in the Babylonian Empire. This code of 282 laws covered every area of life: social relationships, property rights, marriage and debt, business dealings, and commerce. One of the central aspects of the code was to protect the weak against the strong and create peace between people as society organized and became civilized. While it included many harsh punishments, it set forth the doctrine of

“innocent until proven guilty,” and established judicial procedures still used today.

You and I, living in a civilized society, function together under an agreed-upon code of laws, many based on Hammurabi’s original code. As a group, we subscribe to a foundational rule to treat everyone kindly and fairly.

This maxim, commonly known as the Golden Rule, is part of almost every religion and belief system in the world.

In Taoism, it reads, “Regard your neighbor’s gain as your own gain and your neighbor’s loss as your own loss.”

Confucianism teaches, “Is there one word which can serve as the

guiding principle for conduct throughout life? It is the word altruism (shu) — Do not do to others what you do not want them to do to you.”

The Quran states, “None of you has faith until he loves for his brother or his neighbor what he loves for himself.”

Judaism’s Talmud says, “What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor. This is the whole Torah; all the rest is commentary.”

In Christianity, it reads, “In everything, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”

Therefore, we are corporately aghast as we witness the outright blatant and brutal betrayal of the CODE as we watch the horror

of Ukraine. One man, Vladimir Putin, has abandoned the very core beliefs of humanity.

He has abandoned truth, integrity, decency, and civility. He has descended into savagery and abuse of power, just as the English schoolboys of Lord of the Flies, when they found themselves on a deserted island “without any grownups” and without any social norms and laws, without any CODE. No, Vladimir Putin will not stop at the stop sign and he will not stay in his lane. He has no concern for the “other.” In fact, there are no “others” in his warped deranged world.

This has all happened before, in

Dealing With Anger

DANIEL RICH COMMENTARY

W

hen appropriately asserting oneself, there are basically three approaches.

The first approach would be to be totally passive, not standing up for one’s rights or perhaps not responding in any way.

This passive example might be when a salesman on the telephone is demanding that you purchase a gift card to establish your credit identity, and you comply even though you are convinced that this is fraud.

God Bless America!

Dear Editor, The North County will have an opportunity to gather to celebrate America’s National Day of Prayer in Atascadero, Thursday, May 5th. There will be two events: a brief gathering at noon for prayer, and a full program at 6 p.m.

This year’s theme is “A Nation Stands Tallest When

The middle ground is appropriate assertiveness. When the salesman demands the gift card, you decline, in a neutral and non-hostile manner, stating that you do not intend to purchase a gift card because you know that his demand is not legitimate. You politely, but assertively, repeat your position if needed.

The third, or aggressive, approach would be to raise your voice, or perhaps angrily challenge the salesman, perhaps insulting the salesman or calling him or her names.

I want to emphasize that assertiveness or standing up for one’s rights, is proper, but anger used to bully, insult, control, or mistreat others is not.

The anger from some people is so intense and over the top that the result is that it creates emotional distance because no one likes to be the recipient of

raw anger. The angry person may consciously or unconsciously desire that emotional distance that is created by intimidation.

Anger as a mechanism to manipulate, bully, or control is effective in the short run, but the long term effect can be to destroy relationships, because the recipient of the anger is typically afraid emotionally, and perhaps physically, of the perpetrator.

So my point is that while in the short run the angry person has dominated, this does not work well in the long run because in the long run a sense of safety or trust has been destroyed.

In the current world there is a great deal of polarization. Negotiations and exchanges of different viewpoints have become less dominant. Toleration of others priorities, goals, or beliefs have become less pronounced.

Added to this sense of people

being more adversarial, this world of the pandemic has created accelerated levels of stress, with many people suffering from the effects of social isolation. Additionally many people are worried about their health and finances. The incidence of domestic violence, suicide, depression, and substance abuse have all increased.

The point is, that when people feel stressed and perhaps disenfranchised, it should not be surprising to also see increased levels of anger.

Additionally, individuals who expect perfection from themselves and others are more likely to be chronically angry, because the world is not a perfect place. Those who have not dealt with their own past traumas of illness, abandonment, divorce, emotional or physical abuse are

also more likely to be chronically angry. They are also more likely to magnify current frustrations.

So what may be perceived as anger towards you may really be about their challenges, frustrations or issues that the other person is dealing with. In other words, it may be about them, and not about you.

There are many levels of anger, ranging from oppositional behavior, to giving others ultimatums, to insulting, ridiculing, or belittling others.

These are all attempts to control others. The highest levels of anger are witnessed when people make threats of physical harm to others. A threat of great physical violence or death against others is against the law in California.

Whatever can be done to minimize anger against others is worthwhile.

Letter to the Editor

It’s On Its Knees!” America is unique because our patriotic songs are actually hymns to almighty God. Paso Robles’ Revival Church pastor Gabe Abedlaziz, as well as Atascadero’s Saint William’s Parish Pastor Edwin Limpiado will be the speakers. Podcaster/ God Bless America! radio host donn clarius will be the master of ceremonies.

All are urged to bring a

lawn chair because seating is limited.

Our nation and its leaders have a history of turning to God: Congress issued a back-toGod proclamation even before we were a country; in July 1775, they called for “a day of prayer, fasting and public humiliation” in response to the crisis with Great Britain.

During the Revolution, several

such days were proclaimed; after the war, President George Washington did so several times, and by President John Adams. Many have been called for during times of war because it is God’s wish to be turned to; however, He wants us to do so not just when things are going badly but also in times of plenty. We are to give Him thanks at all times.

“Our founders” were far

more than just the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence, and later those who later signed the Constitution; they included all members of the colonial legislatures, plus the governors; in all, about 95 percent of about 250 “founders were devout followers of Christ; we know this by reading the letters they wrote to their families. They firmly believed the Bible when

Easter is this Sunday, and no matter how you celebrate, we hope you enjoy the day with lots of sunshine, great food, friends and family, or just a quiet day outdoors enjoying a good book.

Spring is such a special time of the year with everything coming back to life, and while the nation and our community remain divided on many issues, let us take the time to brighten someone’s day.

Until next time, stay safe, North County.

1939 in Germany, when another murderous, nefarious dictator descended into savagery and betrayed humanity’s CODE. The words, “Never again,” became the universal slogan for future responses to ruthless totalitarian dictators. Well, the ‘again’ is here, in the form of another heinous depraved thug, Vladimir Putin.

And if we sincerely heed our own words, “never again,” then there’s only one choice: The thug, the tyrant must be removed — immediately, expeditiously, permanently.

Truly working to understand others is key. Really listening to others, is essential. A good approach is to repeat back their points of view until they agree that you have understood them.

Finding common interests or priorities can minimize polarization.

One can attempt to counter anger by presenting one’s position or requests in an assertive but non aggressive, non hostile manner, appealing to the reason of the other person. This attempt may not be successful, but it is still worth attempting.

However, our founders were adamant that religious coercion doesn’t work – it actually backfires! Therefore they did not want to destroy what they knew that our new nation desperately needed – God’s abundant blessings!

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. 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.

I couldn’t for the life of me understand how that would help a cow. I said, “I need to lift her up, but I don’t own a tractor with a front end loader, and the old lady’s not worth what it would cost to rent a tractor for a couple days.”

“Don’t think much of the old gal, do you?” asked Wild Bill as I left the coffee shop to go feed and water the two females in my life.

About a week later, I went back to the Idle Spur, and again Wild Bill was riding the same chair. By this time, I was looking beleaguered from a lack of home cooking.

“Still down?” he asked.

“Yeah, and she’s turned mean on me. I hate to admit this Bill, but I was at the end of my wits, so I grabbed a hot shot and gave her a little electrical charge hoping it would encourage her to get up. But she just moaned

COLUMNIST

he dictionary defines the word create as bringing something into existence. So it’s no wonder that when the topic of creativity arises, if you haven’t produced a painting, drawing, music piece, writing, or otherwise, you respond with great clarity, “I’m not creative.”

The truth is that we are all creative. I’m not talking about producing a product or a performance. I’m talking about you creating your life and your experience on the planet at this time.

We are in constant co-creation with the Divine. What are we creating? Our lives. The Science

of Mind teaches there is one God, common to all, in and through all things; its nature is love, and our thoughts are creative. Time to remove that “I’m not creative” statement from your vocabulary!

When you realize that you have the power to create a life for yourself that you love, your life becomes a glorious exploration and adventure. You jump out of bed each morning with joyful anticipation and cheerful expectancy of all that will be revealed on this dazzling day. Today is a beautiful day, one that you have never experienced before.

Dr. Ernest Holmes observed: “We are chemists in the laboratory of the Infinite. What, then shall we create?” Good question!

You can start by creating your day. Go deeper than looking at your calendar and determining what to eat and when to exercise.

I find that beginning my day

with gratitude, prayer, and meditation lays the foundation for my experience of the best day ever.

What works for you?

Imagine how you would like your day to unfold. Maybe you’re ready to experience ease and grace or a peaceful day. Perhaps you have some tasks you’d love to tackle efficiently and clearly before noon. You might enjoy connecting with friends on this day or trying something new.

When you state your desire of how the day will unfold aloud as if it is happening now, you are off to a great start consciously co-creating with the Divine. For example, today is a peaceful day of ease and grace. I complete my to-do list with efficiency by noon. See where I’m going with this? Name it and claim it. Then watch it unfold as you do your part.

What we think about, we bring about. What you are

in double boiler. Cool to lukewarm. In medium bowl, beat cream cheese with electric mixer until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in sugar, flour, and vanilla. Gently blend in well, melted white chocolate. Pour over crust. Bake until cheesecake is firm, but moves slightly in center when gently shaken, about 40 minutes. Cool completely.

Cover. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.

Glaze: In small saucepan, bring cream to simmer over low heat.

Add chocolate. Stir until smooth.

Spread evenly over top of cheesecake. Refrigerate until set.

Sauce: thaw raspberries in sieve over a bowl, reserving juice.

In small saucepan, boil wine and sugar until reduced to ¼ cup.

Puree berries in food processor. Press puree through sieve.

Sweeten with 2 tablespoons each wine syrup and reserved raspberry juice, adding more to taste.

Serve spoon sauce onto individual plates. Place slice of cheesecake. Garnish with fresh berries. Cheers!

and laid there. Now every time I go near her, she lunges at me and tries to kill me.”

“Can’t really say as I blame her,” said Wild Bill.

“Well, if she doesn’t get up soon, I am going to have to shoot her and put her out of her misery unless you have any other suggestions.”

“I believe I’d have a doctor come by and have a look at your wife before I did that,” said Wild Bill, aghast at the suggestion.

At the time I am writing this, neither the cow or my wife has gotten up yet. I wanted to explain to Wild Bill that I was talking about the cow and not my lovely wife, but for some unknown reason, they won’t let me back in the coffee shop. Along with folks with pacemakers and hippies without shoes, they refuse to let me in the joint. And even if I got inside, judging by the looks on the waitresses’ faces, I doubt if they’d wait on me.

thinking right now is creating your experience. There is no need to get superstitious about this. It’s not that every thought produces itself externally. The sum of your thought patterns - those thoughts on a playback loop that rise randomly throughout the day and hook you into believing them.

Easter is a time of renewal a reminder of life restored. It’s a great time of year to cleanse your mind of vintage thought patterns and replace them with those that would reveal the finished kingdom through which you walk. You are co-creating with Spirit a life you love.

Rise and shine, beloved. Enjoy yourself.

And so it is.

case their creations. Celebrating five years in 2022, the Paso Robles Art in the Park Show has become the largest and finest show in San Luis Obispo County.

Art varied from fine art, metal and leather work, photography, jewelry, stained glass, and even handmade clothing. Many of the artists

are San Luis Obispo County locals, and others come from all over California and beyond.

In the past, visitors of the show came from all over the Nation, along with Europe, while here touring the State.

The next Art in the Park show will be on Oct. 15 and 16. For more information, visit pasoroblesartinthepark.com.

Board members took the next step in moving forward with the Aquatics Complex by unanimously voting to enter an agreement with Arch Pac, Inc. for design and construction administration.

The complex includes a 38-meter by 25-yard competition pool with a shallow end and steps for learning-to-swim programs. However, according to Brad Pawlowski, assistant superintendent of business services, the shallow end will not affect the water polo teams.

Additionally, the project includes pool recirculation and filtration systems, pool deck-

Bergh began distilling about seven years ago. He describes himself as a scientist and an artist — although they include opposite disciplines and principles.

“I found that distilling was a very

Following the Aquatics Complex decision, the board approved with a 4-3 vote to move forward with an agreement with 19six Architects for the design and construction administration of the Georgia Brown campus. Trustees Dorian Baker, Frank Triggs, and Chris Bausch voted against the agreement.

Prior to the vote, Trustee Bausch explained his decision by saying, “I still think it’s a preferable model to merge Georgia Brown and Glen Speck at the 17th Street

Eventually, he found distilling, which happened to be a deeply rooted family business. During the Prohibition, the federal government shut down Bergh’s great-great-grandfathers moonshining operation. Almost a century later, Bergh reintroduced himself to the family business — legally this time.

“I don’t think rebuilding the Georgia Brown campus is a wise use of funds,” he added.

The Georgia Brown campus rebuild was approved during the March 22 board meeting.

But as far as the health and welfare of the humans in that community and what we can do in that part of our larger community, I am going to vote yes.”

The financial impact of the new campus is estimated at $1,260,400 and will use Measure M funds plus district-approved expenses not to exceed $20,000.
