Memories Of The Median

... A July 4th Tradition

by Joe Ditler

Trains and trolleys once owned the median strip.

Hard to believe today, as Coronado works tirelessly to keep our MainStreet median strip looking beautiful.

Doomsayers Aside, The median. It runs 12 blocks by 18 feet.

It was once lined with orange trees, hence the name, Orange Avenue. The rats found it too delicious and the pest-ravaged young orange trees were soon replaced with more durable palm trees and railroad tracks.

Now, on July Fourth weekend, the median strip is filled with tens of thousands of locals and visitors, eager to see the parade and celebrate the Fourth of July. And, every year, locals predict the island will sink under all that weight.

The train called the median strip home for a while, and then the trolley, as they busily labored each day moving people from the Ferry Landing to the Hotel del Coronado and Tent City, and then back again.

The first Coronado Independence Day Parade took place in 1888. The Belt Line Railroad had just been completed around the Silver Strand. The Hotel Del was very close to completion and a roundhouse was being constructed at the Ferry Landing at the foot of Orange Avenue to accommodate train engines, rail cars and trolleys. Today that’s called Centennial Park.

An estimated 11,000 people turned out for that inaugural parade. A contingent of 400 arrived by train from Los Angeles. The rest came, for the most part, by ferryboat.

Even that first year in 1888, 11,000 people attended. In subsequent years, Coronado has become the place to go for July Fourth celebrations involving 100,000 people and more. Soon, local families began camping on the median strip overnight to secure prime viewing platforms for the parade the following morning.

Growing up in Coronado in the 1960s it was something everyone did at least once. For some of us, sleep was evasive, as cars roared down Orange Avenue, particularly after the bars closed.

And yet, family traditions were built around such things. One could drive down the island’s main street and see children throwing the Frisbee or tossing a baseball in the waning hours of daylight.

Then, at night, sleeping bags dotting the landscape, filled with hearty residents and very young children. Usually the children slept while a parent stood watch.

In years past, however, we’ve seen everything from picnic benches to fullsized mattresses dotting the landscape of the median strip as “squatters” temporarily claimed their turf. And, of course, over the years, we’ve also seen the occasional party or two, and sometimes they got a little out of hand.

described the median campers as being in the thousands, and wrote it off as, “parade frenzy.”

Still, as John Lydgate once said, “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time.”

One man wrote a letter to the editor of the Coronado Eagle in 1998 bemoaning how we had lost our little town to paradegoers.

He wrote, “There were people sleeping on the Orange Avenue median. There were loud, drunken, all-night parties. Traffic was gridlocked. People, both men and women, were exposing flesh that shouldn’t be exposed.”

In 1996 a writer in the Coronado Journal described his impression of paradegoers and what they will do to secure a ringside seat.

“People were scattered throughout portions of the Orange Avenue median. Blankets were spread and sleeping bags were out.” He described the scene as, “… a state of bliss.”

He went on to describe how many people live for the time when they can sleep on the median and have a good time waiting for, “this awesome once-a-year event.” He

Later that year, in response to concerns from the Coronado Police Department, the city passed an amended ordinance prohibiting campers from sleeping on the median strip, effectively ending a July Fourth ritual that had been enjoyed since the dawn of civilized Coronado time.

On September 1, 1998, the City Council voted to restrict the use of Orange Avenue center median until 5 a.m. on July 4, and to close Glorietta Bay Park (the old Ferry

The Island Hasn’t Sunk Yet Landing) from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. on July 4.

A police officer described that it was not safe from a public safety position. One resident stood up and said this pre-parade tradition “has turned into a beer bash through the night.”

It’s been so long since sleeping on the median was allowed, it took some doing to find people with memories of those preparade nights. A few were gathered in a research piece that was begun a decade ago, but few of those interviewed remembered (or were willing to admit to) the party atmosphere described above.

Mike O’Connor remembered it being part of his family’s tradition. “We did it for years,” he said. “We camped out on the median in shifts. It was a blast.”

Julie Erwin recalled such memories with mixed blessings. “I spent the night out there with my children one year. Honestly, I was very concerned about a drunk driver running up on the grass and hurting people. My father used to tell stories about how many palm trees he took out with his car along Orange Avenue while drinking and driving.”

Another woman described fond memories of staking out their place on the median and becoming best friends for the day with the folks around her.

Ky Winchester and her friends camped out across from Kippy’s and Central Drug. “That was our high school yak spot,” she said.

Katy Roberson described setting up a dummy to hold their place on the median.

“It was more like a basketball with a hat on it and some rolled up towels jammed down in a sleeping bag that just happened to look fairly realistic.” When the Roberson family arrived in the morning they discovered a homelesslooking person sitting in their chair and talking to the dummy.

Nowadays, the law is specific on overnight median strip use, and that of Centennial Park:

“The Orange Avenue medians will open at 5 a.m. on July 4. There is no camping or staking out. People on the median prior to 5 a.m. will be asked to leave and subject to a citation.

“Items left unattended on the center median will be removed and taken to the Coronado Public Services building, located at 101 B Avenue, where they can be claimed on July 5, between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. Items not claimed by 2 p.m. on July 5, will be discarded.

“You may set up on the sidewalk side of Orange Avenue before 5 a.m.; however, you cannot leave items unattended or block public rights-of-way. There also is no loading

or unloading of items or passengers while stopped in traffic lanes.

The parade endures every year and masses of people continue to descend upon little Coronado to watch it. No longer does the median strip show favoritism to locals, but perhaps that’s a good thing as traffic grows faster and denser each year, and it was only a matter of time before someone was hurt.

Doomsayers aside, the island hasn’t sunk yet.

As former football great Mike Ditka once said, “If you’re not in the parade, you watch the parade.” And so it is, just not before 5 a.m.

Art in the Park at Spreckels Park - By Coronado Art Association

This year is the 71st annual Coronado 4th of July Parade with a theme of “The American Dream.” As soon as the last firework shell fizzled out on July 4, 2018, the Coronado 4th of July Committee starts planning for next year’s activities. These activities, which start off sprinting at 7 a.m. and fizzle out by 9:30 p.m. are put together not just by the Coronado 4th of July Committee but by other organizations and a plethora of volunteers as well.

The day is filled with wonderful activities to help celebrate our Nation’s Independence.

The parade has many returning entries that are on everyone’s favorite list and some new entries that are sure to be crowd pleasers. The day’s activities could not have happened without all the volunteers and donations towards the day. The volunteers are not just the people who run those activities but all the people who participate in them.

No matter how much time is put in, from one volunteer hour to thousands of volunteered hours, the day’s activities could not run smooth without them.

The donations received are priceless as they make all the day’s activities possible. These donations not only come from Coronado residents and

businesses, but from supporters all over the United States that agree our City’s Celebration is one of the best!

We all know that the 4th of July in Coronado is a fun filled, jam packed day but let me be the first to thank you for participating, volunteering, watching, and/or donating to make this great day even better. I would also like to thank both the City of Coronado and the Port of San Diego for their donations and support. Here’s to a wonderful 2019 Coronado 4th of July Celebration and looking forward to an even better 2020 with the theme of “A Salute to America’s Heroes.”

Where does the parade start?

A Fourth of July Message from the Police Department Coronado welcomes you to enjoy the Fourth of July celebration this year, as it is expected to be a great fun-filled day.

What new security measures are being taken?

In response to world events over the past few years, where common vehicles have been used as weapons against people in public gatherings, the City of Coronado has taken measured steps to provide more defined and secure perimeters for our City events that take place in public rights-of-way. Anchors for over 300 steel bollards were installed on the perimeter of the Fourth of July Parade event area. Bollards will be placed in these anchors on the morning of July 4th, starting at 8 a.m. They are in locations where police barricades and vehicles were positioned in the past. Once the bollards are placed, those access points to

The parade starts at First Street and Orange Avenue and ends at Churchill Place and Ocean Boulevard, and lasts about two hours. The parade travels in the southbound lanes of Orange Avenue.

When does the parade start and what is the new preparade event this year?

The parade officially starts at 10 a.m.; however, there will be a pre-parade Fun Run down Orange Avenue at approximately 9:15 a.m. This event is hosted by the Islander Sports Foundation.

Just after Orange Avenue is closed in preparation for the parade, runners will sprint from Fourth Street to Star Park Circle. This pre-parade run will last about fifteen minutes. The Islander Sports Foundation will have volunteers positioned along the route to keep the area clear for runners. Please be sure to use caution during the Fun Run as runners will be sprinting down Orange Avenue.

Where is the best place to watch the parade?

The parade can be viewed anywhere along the southbound lanes of Orange Avenue from First Street to Churchill Place. The parade is also broadcast live on Coronado TV, on Spectrum 19 and AT&T 99.

What roads are closed during the parade?

Orange Avenue will be closed between First Street and R.H. Dana. Vehicle traffic may cross Orange Avenue during the parade road closure only at Third and Fourth streets. The 100 and 200 blocks of D, E, F, G, H, I and J Avenues will be blocked or have access restricted. First Street between Alameda Boulevard and Orange will be closed, as will Churchill Place and a portion of Isabella Avenue.

When will the Police Department start towing vehicles?

Towing will start along Glorietta Boulevard, the parade route and staging areas at approximately 4 a.m. Pay attention to posted signs, park legally and your vehicle will not be towed.

What if my car gets towed?

If your vehicle is towed, please contact the Police Department at 619-522-7350 or stop by the Police Department’s main lobby, 700 Orange Avenue. A release form ($116) from the Police Department is required in order to claim your vehicle at the tow facility. The registered owner of the vehicle will need to show the Police Department a valid driver’s license in order to get the release form. There also will be additional fees applied by the tow yard.

How do I catch the bus? Is there a bus for Cays residents? Are fireworks legal in Coronado?

Public transportation will continue to be provided. Routes normally located within the parade route will be relocated during the closures. The Free Summer Shuttle operating hours will be expanded on the Fourth of July. The shuttle will run in the Village from about 8 a.m. to about10:45 p.m. The City has contracted with MTS to provide special, free bus service on the July 4th holiday for Cays residents. This free bus will operate from about 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. in 30-minute intervals, from the bus stop across from the Cays Fire Station to the turnaround at the Community Center.

No, only by special permit. The Coronado Municipal Code regulates the use and display of fireworks in accordance with the 2016 California Fire Code as amended and adopted by the City of Coronado. The use and display of fireworks is only allowed by special permit from the Coronado Fire Department. This applies to all fireworks; including those known as consumer or safe-andsane fireworks. This even applies to sparklers.

Fireworks found in the possession of individuals will be confiscated. Individuals are subject to citation for violation of the City’s Municipal Code.

Are fires or barbecues allowed on the public beach?

Where can I park my vehicle in Coronado?

It is not permitted to build a fire on any public beach, except in a City-provided fire pit or portable barbecue. All coal and debris from a portable barbecue must be discarded in an official fire pit or hot coal container. The Coronado Municipal Code states that a fire in a fire pit or portable barbecue shall be used only to build beach fires for cooking or warmth, and it shall be unlawful to use the same as incinerators to burn waste or any material restricted by the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District. The materials used for fires on the public beach shall not exceed a height of 12 inches above the upper edge of the fire pit or portable barbecue and shall be contained within the inside edge of the fire pit or portable barbecue. All fires must be properly extinguished before being left unattended. Ashes cannot be covered. All unburned wood shall be removed or placed in receptacles provided by the City. Glass items or containers of any type are not allowed on the beach. Alcohol is not allowed on public property, including the beaches or in the water.

Are anchorage permits needed for Glorietta Bay (A-5) on July 4th?

Permits will not be needed from 12 p.m. on July 3 until 12 p.m. on July 5, in Glorietta Bay. Coronado Lifeguards will be directing boaters to the special anchoring area. Vessels attempting to enter before that time will be turned away. A-5 will be closed due to its close proximity to the fireworks barge. Overnight anchoring permits will be required starting July 5.

Can I smoke in Coronado?

As of January 1, 2014, the City prohibits smoking on all public property, and on private property within 25 feet of an enclosed building.

What time do the fireworks start?

The fireworks display at Glorietta Bay will start at 9 p.m. The barge is in the water between the Coronado Golf Course and the Coronado Community Center. The fireworks will last about 15 minutes. The Coronado fireworks display is not connected to the Big Bay Boom.

Parking is authorized in any marked legal parking spot. The parking meters and permit parking will not be enforced on July 4; however, all other parking rules and regulations will be in effect. Vehicles that are parked illegally are subject to being towed at the owner’s expense. If you see a “No Parking” sign, do not park your vehicle there or you will be subject to being towed or receiving a citation. The parking restriction signs are certified by the Coronado Police Department several times prior to and on the Fourth of July so moving a sign will not be a valid excuse. *Saving parking spaces is not allowed.

Where can I park my motor home/RV/trailer?

Motor homes can be parked in any legal space they fit into.

Oversized vehicles are not required to obtain an oversized vehicle permit on July 4; oversized vehicle permits are required prior to and after July 4. No awnings or slide outs from motor homes, RV’s or trailers will be allowed as they create hazards for other vehicles, bicyclists and pedestrians. All trailers must remain attached to vehicles being towed and there is no overnight camping or lodging allowed in the City.

What time does Silver Strand State Beach open on the Fourth of July?

Silver Strand State Beach is set to open at approximately 6 a.m. on July 4, which will allow vehicles to enter about an hour earlier than normal. The State Beach gates will close when the park is FULL on July 3. Vehicles, motorhomes and trailers are not permitted to stop, park or line up along any part of the highway or roadway at any time.

Where do I report issues with public or portable restrooms?

Contact the Public Services Department at 619-522-7380 for matters related to public bathrooms and service, or maintenance issues.

The City reminds the community to keep a watchful eye on their children.

Parents of lost children should contact a Police Officer, security staff or call 9-1-1. For non- life-threatening emergencies, contact the Police Department at 619-522-7350.

A Remembrance of the Life and Career of Vice Admiral William ‘Scot’ McCauley

by David Axelson Mary Ann Reiman McCauley was married to VADM William Frederick ‘Scot’ McCauley for 61 years and it would be fair to say she is the resident expert on her late husband’s glittering 36-year Navy career, which culminated in McCauley being Commander of Naval Forces Atlantic from 1984-88. But there are several interesting stops along the way for both Scot and Mary, the details of which she outlined recently in a room adjacent to the kitchen of the beautiful Coronado home she and Scot built three decades ago.

Our narrative starts with Scot’s nickname, which came at an early age while he was growing up in a family with three sisters in Omaha, Nebraska. “He was a William the Fourth and he was tight with his toys. So they nicknamed him Scot. We have a grandson named Scott who just earned his MBA from the University of Chicago. Scot had three kids named after him and I did all the work.”

At the outset, you need to know Mary Ann has a great sense of humor and was laughing when she made that last remark.

Mary Ann talked about her late husband’s was out of Nebraska. He said, ‘Sign me up,’ how to study. Scot couldn’t swim and his early years in Omaha. Scot was very bright, and he got a one-way bus ticket in 1951 to instructor said, ‘He was the only midshipman especially in math. He attended Creighton go to the Naval Academy. It turned out the who pulled me into the pool when I tried to Prep and the University of Creighton for bus ticket was to Washington, D.C., which help him out.’ Scot was never crazy about the one year.

McCauley also wrote three books, which he described as ‘Airport Thrillers.’ The books include “Revenge in Exile,” “Israel Under Siege” and Mary Ann’s favorite, “Death Knell of the Caliphate.” Mary Ann said, “A lot of people thought Scot was a spy because he said some of the things that actually happened.

What is perfect on a hot summer day? A smoothie, of course! However, we realize smoothies are a great snack or breakfast on any day.

Smoothies have been enjoyed in the Mediterranean and Eastern cultures for years, but with the advent of the electric blender and refrigeration, they became more prevalent. We can thank the hippie movement of the 60s for the “smoothie” name and its growth in popularit y.

Smoothies are a wonderful way of blending together the delicious and nutritious benefits of fruits and vegetables of the season, a little milk, yogurt or juice, and ice. They can be high in vitamins, minerals and even proteins, depending on what you add to your blender. They can make you feel full, enhance immunities and aid in digestion. Adding yogurt or milk can boost your calcium intake.

Fruit is an obvious option, however, many vegetables are making their way into the frozen concoction, such as kale, broccoli, spinach and collard greens. Adding your favorite juice can sweeten your smoothie, too. So many choices!

Short on time? Get a smoothie to go. Hard to beat the pureed mixture of your favorite fruits and vegetables!

Summer 2019

The Backyard Bar-B-Q

by Linda L. Austin Coronado lends itself to outdoor entertaining.

Our weather may be a bit chilly at times, but enough days are perfect for that outdoor meal.

For the person who entertains frequently or is not enamored with kitchen duty, catering or picking up prepared dishes makes the party doable. Guests just enjoy good food, no matter where it comes from.

tucked away in the refrigerator. While a hot dish is not mandatory, a dish baking in the oven, ready to pull out when needed, can add interest. The traditional baked beans, even from a can, are always a favorite. I usually doctor the beans with a splash of ketchup, a smidge of mustard, maybe a touch of vinegar.

Make-ahead breads can be simple and guarantee an impressive addition. With glasses and a bucket of ice nearby, an assortment of beverages to suit the tastes of all ages can be in an iced cooler for individual selection.

Pitchers with iced tea and lemonade are often welcomed.

Coronado Magazine

Page 31

GOURMET/BBQ The dessert can be simply cut up fruit topped with whipped cream or ice cream drizzled with chocolate sauce, but for those who enjoy cooking, options abound. I usually make homemade lemon ice cream at least once during the summer, served with sugar cookies or brownies. Cheesecake is a common dessert at my parties. A chilled trifle or homemade ice cream sandwiches add a special ending.

The dessert is always prepared at least a day ahead.

While many of my gatherings have food as the sole event, summer games can add a sparkle.

Croquette, popular when I was young, is still fun. Most Coronado yards are small, not lending themselves to the traditional pattern of play; be creative and position the hoops around a tree or in a zig zag pattern. With a safe place, darts can lure people from their seats. Bean Bag Toss appeals to all ages and provides hours of fun. Old fashion games for the children, like Simon Says, Red Light Green Light, or hop-scotch need organization to get it started. Enlist a teenager to lead the activities.

I am table-decoration challenged, but I do strive to have a centerpiece on each table. It could be a bowl of lemons, potted plants that end up in my flower beds, or a splurge on flowers.

Conversation when the group is a good mixture is usually not an issue, but if several guests are newcomers or not part of the familiar crowd, have a few topics ready to include them. When multiple seating areas are staged, consider having each guest draw a number designating the table they will occupy. Couples can certainly be temporarily separated for the meal. The hosts should be at different tables to monitor the food and direct the conversation.

Asparagus Dipping Sauce

This appetizer can be made a day ahead. If you like lemon, add 1/4 teaspoon of the rind. Although there are many ways to cook asparagus, cook to your desired doneness.

Some like it bright green in color, others darker. If it is too limp, however, it won’t be good for dipping.

1 1/2 cups mayonnaise 4 tablespoons sour cream or yogurt 1/2 cup fresh herbs (parsley, dill, chives), chopped 2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon honey Salt and white pepper to taste 2 pounds asparagus, medium thickness Combine all the ingredients, minus asparagus, adjusting quantities to emphasize the flavors you like best. Store in refrigerator.

Rinse asparagus, swishing by stalks in sink of water. Break off tough stalks. Place prepared asparagus in pot with rack or strainer and add water just to cover. When water begins to boil vigorously, turn off heat and leave covered for 5 minutes. Drain; store in airtight container in refrigerator until chilled, even overnight. Serve chilled with Asparagus Dipping Sauce. Serves 12.

Beer Batter Bread

Beach Beans

I was assigned to take Cheese Bread to a luncheon, but most of the recipes needed to be served straight from the oven. This recipe holds well and can be either cooked the day before or partially assembled the day before and completed in oven for 5 minutes. It looked pretty and the guests asked for seconds. It is so nice to have an easy bread recipe that brings compliments to the cook!

Insert the toothpick in a few spots when testing for doneness; it may hit a pocket of cheese, which resembles uncooked batter on the toothpick. Strongly flavored beers make the bread bitter, so mild American lagers like Budweiser work best here. Adapted from Cooks Illustrated.

Ice Cream Cake

Ice cream flavor favorites are personal. Customize your cake, if you like. While the cake takes little time for you, allow freezer time. You can make it a week ahead and then you’re free to focus on the other dishes.

When softening the ice cream and sorbet, microwave on high in two to three 10-second intervals until just soft enough to spread.

Garnish top of cake with chocolate curls or amaretti cookies dipped halfway into room-temperature Hot Fudge Sauce. Cut cake into squares.

PARENTING

We were three hours into our cross country flight, and both of my kids fell fast asleep on me. Quite frankly we were feeling pretty cocky, so my husband and I ordered a glass of wine and settled in to enjoy some quiet time before we landed in Baltimore. Sounds pretty good right, perhaps too good to be true?

I heard the pilot come on, expecting him to announce our initial descent and that’s when things started to get bumpy, literally.

“Folks, there are thunderstorms in Baltimore, so we are going to circle for a bit until they clear.”

The snacks and activities are long gone by the time the pilot comes back and announces we are running low on fuel, and now we have to divert to Pittsburgh. Not ideal, but safety first right?

And also get me off this plane.

So we all deplane, give Auntie Annie’s pretzels their best sales day ever and wait. And wait.

Ahhhhh, traveling can be such a treat.

PARENTING The big day arrived and as we pulled up in our golf cart we realized our daughter had left her bag she packed. It was full of necessities like four bathing suits (for a two day stay), a picture of her best friend, and her diary, so obviously we needed to go back for it.

The gang dropped me off so I could check in and head to my well deserved spa treatment.

(I know we moms are always putting everyone else’s needs before ourselves, so make sure to take time for yourself too!) I headed to the Spa at the Del and the minute I put my robe on, I took my mom hat off. It was so relaxing, I feel like it was the perfect way to kick off our stay. I had a Hydrafacial treatment and it was so satisfying. I will be requesting it for any future birthdays, mothers days, etc. My face was actually glowing and I was recharged and ready for vacation.

I took my new look down to meet my family at a bonfire on the beach to roast s’mores. I would say that bonfires are one of my top favorite Coronado activities, but the Del made the experience extra special. My mom biked a couple blocks over and joined us and it was just wonderful, good old fashioned family fun.

We walked up to ENO Pizzeria & Wine Bar for dinner, and my bright idea of s’mores before dinner started taking its toll. Tired meltdowns fueled by sugar; nothing more enjoyable. The pizza came (truly so so good), and then this is where the true genius of a local staycation is. Grandma took the kids upstairs for bath and bed, while my husband and I grabbed a glass of wine and headed to the hot tub. Call your favorite babysitter and get some alone time in!

Finding Room

by Susie Clifford

Coronado Magazine

Deb and Steve Madsen were building a home on Ocean Avenue and wanted to have a special room for all of their grandkids when they came to stay. What developed next with builder John O’Brien of Flagg Coastal Homes and designer Dorian Lytle of Dorian Lytle Designs was a bunkroom, a bedroom space filled with special built in bunkbeds.

The Madsen Showhouse Bunkroom Coronado Magazine

Page 47

BUNKROOMS It was designed with a nautical theme, with porthole reading lights and upper railing that mimics sailboat windows. Two queen sized beds flanked each wall with the sturdy ladder that led up to the top bunks, both full size beds. A bookshelf divided the two queen beds, also adding support for the bunks above.

The space created was inviting and fun. Images of kids eagerly climbing up the ladder to secure their own sleeping space, trading secrets in the night, and finally giving in to a peaceful slumber come to mind when walking into the bunkroom.

A place where family memories are made.

That home went on to become the Coastal Living Showhouse and a lot of traffic went through it before the Madsens were able to move in. That may have been at first a contributing factor to the many bunkrooms that O’Brien has been requested to build.

Seeing the beauty and efficiency of these bunkrooms has added to their popularity, including clients who want them in their full time residences.

“Typically, now a new client sees our Instagram profile or our HOUZZ profile and sees the bunkrooms from a previous project and basically say that they would like one as well,” said O’Brien.

“All our bunk rooms are custom made.”

Lytle designed all of them. “A lot of clients have grandkids and they want a place for them when they visit… Clients love them and want a place for family and friends.”

“Homes with 8 foot ceilings may have a tight feel for the top bunk, but a 10 foot ceiling can feel great,” said Lytle. “Every house is different.”

Each set of bunkbeds has a queen size bed below with a full size bed above. Storage space is created with built in drawers underneath the queen beds and bookshelves. Sturdy railings are added for security. Lighting is usually wall mounted for each space. The lighting and the bookshelves help separate the sleeping spaces, offering a bit of privacy.

About Last Month’s Cover When planning out the articles for the June 2019 magazine, fathers naturally came to mind with the June Father’s Day holiday. What do dads like to do? Fishing, golfing, surfing, watching sports, were just a few things that came to mind.

The idea of using the golf course began to take shape in our discussions. Its beauty is obvious. We hadn’t done a shot of it recently, so we went out to take some photos in the late afternoon and they were good.

But then during a round of golf on a Friday night, just as the sun was sitting low in the sky, Brooke Clifford took out her phone and captured the image that we would end up using for the cover, walking from the green on the 8th hole to the tee of the 9th.

The lighting was warm, the water still and reflective and the scene peaceful.

It captured a bit of the bridge. It said Coronado.

phase of the Coronado Cays was just about finished; the Coronado Shores high rise plans were approved; the Coronado Historical Association was founded. But, also a lot of classic Coronado’s way of life was disappearing. In 1969, the train to North Island took its last trip and the ferry service was soon to end. The immediate impact of these changes caused Coronado’s assessed value to increase by 18.5% from the previous year, bringing it to a total of $36,226,367.

In just over a month, the bridge would open.

The anticipation made many feel that the 22nd Annual Independence Day celebration would be a special one. The Coronado Journal estimated “A record-breaking crowd is expected to line the streets and many visitors will be making this the occasion for their final trip on the unique ferry boats which will soon be out of service.”

Most of the 4th of July activities were the same as they are today: the rough water swim, the Parade, a concert, and of course, fireworks. In 1969, there were some additional activities offered by the City’s Citizens Committee including a teen dance, a water ski show, and Page 62

at Coronado Hospital, Peterson left his bed in order to appear in the Fourth of July celebration.” Peterson’s book is still available to all Coronado lay historians at the Coronado Historical Association and at the Coronado Public Library. Other special guests of the parade included a baby elephant and baby camel from the San Diego Zoo. From the Enchanted Island book, “For Coronado Island, 1969 was the year that, without a doubt marked the end of the small residential village and the beginning of a bustling resort … Life, as islanders knew it, would never be the same.” And indeed, the 4th of July celebrations were being savored before the monumental change. Despite the expectation of an influx of people, the 1969 Independence Day Celebrations brought 56,000 people to Coronado, down 4,000 from the previous year. Though still one of the country’s largest Independence Day events, it was a somewhat smaller, more intimate day of celebration. Truly a community-oriented affair. After the bridge was opened, that number soared to 65,000 people.

TAXES & YOU

Three Great Charitable Deduction Ideas

by Nathan Ihm EA Despite what you may have heard from friends or family, you can still claim generous tax benefits for charitable contributions. Here are three prime examples of charitable tax breaks ripe for the picking if you know where to look.

itemizing in the current tax year, you may postpone donations into the next year.

The idea is to get the most tax deductions possible over a multiyear period.

With each of these ideas, it is essential to follow the rules when donating. If not, your good intentions may not be deemed a qualified donation for tax purposes.

Ask for help if you’d like to review your situation.

• Qualified Charitable Distributions: If you’re age 70 1/2 or order you can transfer up to $100,000 (or a total of $200,000 for joint filers) directly from your IRA to a qualified charitable organization without paying any tax.

Because distributions done this way are not subject to federal tax, it’s like contributing with pre-tax dollars.

Plus, your contribution counts as a required minimum distribution for tax purposes.

• Appreciated Securities: Donate appreciated property (like securities) to a qualified charity and you can deduct the current fair market value (FMV) of the property if you’ve owned them longer than a year. For example, if you acquired stock three years ago for $7,500 and it’s now worth $10,000, you can donate it and deduct the entire $10,000 FMV if you itemize your deductions. There’s no capital gains tax on the $2,500 appreciation in value ever! This is a great strategy if you are close to or over the itemized deduction threshold in a year.

• Bunching Donations: Under the recent tax legislation, the standard deduction was essentially doubled for 2018-2025, while certain itemized deductions were reduced or eliminated.

As a result, it now makes sense to “bunch” large gifts of property, like securities (see above), in a tax year in which you expect to itemize.

Conversely, if you don’t anticipate Coronado Magazine

Devising a Data Breach Game Plan presented by Jane Braun, CFP ®

As you’ve likely read in the headlines, many companies have been victims of data breaches in recent years. For many of us, this situation can feel overwhelming.

If businesses can’t protect themselves from cyberattacks, what chance does the average consumer have?

Time to Plan The bad news is that we likely can’t stop these data breaches from happening. But the good news is that, depending on the breach, it usually takes only a couple of key actions to reduce how you’ll be affected—if at all.

The secret lies in pinpointing the specific information that’s at risk. Ask yourself, if attackers were to get ahold of this account, what could they access? From there, you can Report any unauthorized charges to your devise a simple game plan for almost any bank or credit card company. breach.

Request a replacement card.

Credit and Debit Cards A good place to start is by making safe choices when it comes to using your credit and debit cards. For example, enter payment information online only at HTTPS sites (as opposed to HTTP sites), never store your payment information on sites, and do business only with companies you trust.

Even when you make the right choices, however, your payment information will inevitably get out there. If you do catch wind of any breach of credit or debit card information, it’s best to take the following steps:

Here, it’s important to keep in mind that not all data breaches are properly disclosed. In fact, many aren’t revealed until months (or even years!) after the compromise took place.

Get in the habit of regularly monitoring your financial activity, and report anything suspicious as soon as you can.

Passwords In the past few years, LinkedIn, Yahoo, and Twitter passwords have been exposed on a mass scale. What steps should you take when something like this happens again? First, change your password. But also ask yourself, Have I used this password or a similar password for other online accounts?

Review your recent card activity to see if any unauthorized charges have occurred.

If you use a password in multiple places and just one of those places is breached, Page 68

Coronado Magazine

someone could access all accounts that use that password. The solution? Break the “password reuse” habit! That way, the next time an incident happens, you would have to change only the password to the site that was breached. To simplify this process, you might also consider adopting a password manager.

Enabling multi factor authentication can also help protect your account with an additional layer of security. For example, you might receive a smartphone or e-mail notification every time you use your password. So, if your password were ever exposed, an attacker would need that other form of authentication to log in—which he or she is unlikely to have.

Social Security Number Unlike a password, you can’t simply change a social security number when it has been exposed. What you can do is freeze your credit. As of September 2018, freezes are free, and they’re the most heavy-duty tool at your

FINANCE

disposal for protecting your credit. It’s a preventive measure against new lines of credit being opened in your name and hard inquiries.

Some other tools worth looking into for an exposed social security number include: Fraud alerts: These alerts encourage companies to verify with you before opening new lines of credit.

Credit monitoring: These tools monitor your credit in real time for any changes. They are reactive and not proactive; they alert you after the unauthorized activity happens.

Identity theft protection services: For a hands-off approach to identity protection, these products offer tools and resources for one subscription fee.

Don’t Panic, Do Take Action Every breach is different. As such, there is no list of the “top three ways” to reduce impact across the board. But with a plan in place, there will be no need to panic when news of another breach hits the headlines. There will be the need to take action—and your data breach plan can help get you started. If a breach does affect you personally— to the point where someone is abusing your information and you can’t figure out what to do next—we recommend checking out the helpful resources at IdentityTheft.gov.

© 2019 Commonwealth Financial Network®

Are You Ready?

Now, let’s apply what we’ve learned so far to a breach that doesn’t fit so neatly into the categories above. In 2018, Facebook discovered a weakness that allowed attackers to take over any account. Attackers could find and reuse anyone’s unique access token, allowing them to authenticate users’ accounts. There was no known evidence of misuse, only the potential for it. Affected accounts were notified

by Facebook via e-mail. If you received such a message today, what would you do?

You might start by asking yourself what your Facebook account has access to. With social media specifically, the answer depends on how you use your account.

Does your profile have your real birth date?

What third-party applications do you have connected to your Facebook account?

Do you use Facebook Connect to log in to other online accounts— ones that might store your payment information?

Have you ever messaged a family member your Netflix password, credit card information, or even social security number?

Once you identify what’s at stake, identify the steps you can take to lock it down. Can you separate those connected apps—or at least change their passwords? Do you need to limit the type of information you post on Facebook? Can you monitor anything else that may have been exposed, like a credit card number?
