Vets to distribute poppies on Friday and Saturday in RB, 4S Ranch BY ELIZABETH MARIE HIMCHAK Rancho Bernardo will have a much larger Memorial Day observance than in the past now that the RB Historical Society is holding its annual pancake breakfast right before military veterans conduct the community’s ceremony in Webb Park. The 11th annual breakfast will be 8 to 11 a.m. Monday, May 30 near Webb Lake in Rancho Bernardo’s Webb Park. It is accessible from Avena Place off Bernardo Center Drive. Breakfast tickets are $7 per person. Veterans, active duty military and children under 3 are free. Tickets can be purchased at the breakfast or in advance at the RB History Museum in Bernardo Winery, 13330 Paseo del Verano Norte. In addition to the food, there will be live music and free children’s activities, a balloon artist and face painter. There will also be opportunities to win prizes and paint museum tiles, said RB Historical Society President Nancy Canfield. Veterans who have yet to get their photo added to the museum’s Wall of Honor can bring a photo of themselves in uniform so it can be scanned for display. There is no charge. SEE MEMORIAL, A11
