County to ‘fully explore’ cultivation of hemp

Lured to the lake

Chris Daley Mountain Democrat correspondent

Young angler Alexis Adkins, above, celebrates her top catch with Michelle Wirt of Pioneer Fire Protection’s District Quick Response Team at the South County First Responder Fishing Derby Saturday at D’Agostini Reservoir. The event saw dozens of anglers 15 and younger cast their lines in the Mt. Aukum lake with winners in the various age categories taking home bragging rights and fishing derby medals. The derby was sponsored by the Pioneer Fire Protection District, Pioneer Volunteer Firefighters Association and D’Agostini Family Ranch. Assisting with demos and displays were the Amador Fire Protection District, Cal Fire, El Dorado County Sheriff’s Office and others.

South Tahoe fireworks show a no-go Tahoe Daily Tribune STATELINE, Nev. — The fireworks display in South Lake Tahoe that has traditionally been watched in person by tens of thousands has been canceled due to public safety concerns around peak visitation during the ongoing pandemic. The Tahoe Douglas Visitors Authority states in a press release Wednesday that it made the final decision to cancel the 2021 Fourth of July Lights on the Lake fireworks display following months of careful discussion and consultation with area partners. The annual display draws tens of thousands of visitors to area beaches and interest is already strong for lodging this year with the holiday falling on a weekend, officials said. “The dramatic shifts in our lives and activities in a COVID world are not yet completely in the rear-view

mirror,” said Carol Chaplin, president and CEO of the TDVA. “Although restrictions have been lifted, we feel that this past year of uncertainty has taught us that caution and preparedness is paramount to keeping our residents and visitors safe. We are extremely sensitive to what the destination needs and to creating a quality experience for both visitors and residents. During an already busy weekend that has the potential for environmental impacts in the basin in the way of increased trash at our beaches, fire danger and strain on our various agency resources, we need to be good stewards of the lake. We join our other Lake Tahoe basin partners in maintaining this focus by pausing the fireworks show one more time.” Chaplin added that the board received input from regional partners, land management agencies, residents and businesses in coming to this decision.

The El Dorado County Board of Supervisors kicked the proverbial can(nabis) down the road after nearly three hours of discussion and public comment during Tuesday’s board meeting. At issue was the countywide regulation of hemp cultivation. A moratorium created by an urgency ordinance in December 2020 and subsequently extended until next December by an interim urgency ordinance is currently in effect. The moratorium prevents the issuance of new and/or continuing registrations for hemp growers. Of the approximately 10 licensed operations, most licenses scheduled to expire in July. Agriculture Department Director Charlene Carveth opened the discussion. Reporting on the efforts of the ad hoc committee, Carveth noted that hemp cultivation is a “complex issue with a lot of things involved. It needs more research.” She pointed out a number of negative factors that complicate the regulating of the official designation “industrial hemp.” Its strong odor is a significant issue, particularly for people with high sensitivity. Carveth especially noted that the cannabis sativa Linnaeus plant is difficult to distinguish from its cousin, cannabis sativa linn, commonly known as marijuana. In effect they are the same plant that has been employed into two very different functions and purposes. Hemp is used in a wide range of products from rope to paper to animal bedding, dog medicine and cosmetics. Marijuana, of course, is used recreationally and medicinally and has a much higher level of the intoxicating compound tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) than hemp. Hemp generally has less than 1% while marijuana produces 5% to 20% THC. District 4 Supervisor Lori Parlin participated along with District 1’s John Hidahl in the ad hoc committee. “Experts at every meeting created more confusion,” Parlin recounted. “We need more time to study and it could take a couple of years to find solid research.” Parlin further explained that several of the growers who participated in the committee candidly admitted that hemp growing was the “plan B.” Growing marijuana is their real goal. Carveth suggested the real “clash is between the hemp and the cannabis grower community” rather than between the hemp growers and wineries or other agricultural production. However, many n

Memorial Day ceremonies to again be held virtually John Poimiroo El Dorado County Veterans Alliance El Dorado County Memorial Day ceremonies will again be prerecorded, broadcast and streamed. “Last month we faced a ‘go, no-go’ decision whether to hold a public Memorial Day ceremony. At the time El Dorado County was struggling to drop out of the COVID-19 orange tier, which restricts public gatherings. We’re still not there. So, there’s no safe option but to hold another virtual ceremony, as was done on previous Memorial and Veterans days,” said El Dorado County Veterans Alliance President Gary Campbell. Last year’s virtual ceremonies were seen by more than 32,000 viewers on Sierra Community Access Television (cable Channel 2) and on county veterans Facebook pages. Again, this Memorial Day, the pre-recorded ceremony will be broadcast over Channel 2

and streamed on Facebook at 11 a.m. Facebook users will be able to see the ceremony online at the following pages: • Facebook.com/1ElDoradoCountyMilitaryVeterans • Facebook.com/EDCVeteransAlliance • Facebook.com/groups/EDCVeteransMonument This year’s Memorial Day ceremony will recognize the valiant and heroic feats of El Dorado County’s Capt. Paul Jacobs, U.S. Navy, who died in December. He is credited as having led the most significant humanitarian mission in U.S. military history when he and his crew of the USS Kirk — the smallest warship in the U.S. Navy — rescued more than 30,000 Vietnamese sailors, their families and refugees from certain capture, incarceration, torture or execution in the final moments of the Vietnam War. A plaque honoring Jacobs’ extraordinary accomplishment will be dedicated and placed on the Honor Wall of the EDC Veterans Monument.

Jan Rose

Sept. 21, 1927 - May 5, 2021

Jan Rose was born on Sept. 21, 1927, in Los Angeles to Rozi and Jacob Feldmar. She was Rosie’s only child and she had three stepbrothers Sidney, Maury and Barney. Jan went fishing with her father and often told the story of her duck, Donald, who every morning followed her to the end of the block before being told to go home. Which, he obediently did. When she was older she worked for Rabbi Kaplan and spent an adventurous year in Champagne Urbana, Ill., with a friend. Marrying and raising a family was very important to Jan. She met her husband Charlie Rose while she was working as an assistant at a human relations conference which he was attending. The next year they came back with their first child, David, and said, “Look what we learned about human relations.” Two years later they had Lauri. Jan and Charlie raised their two children in the San Fernando Valley near Los Angeles. When the kids were old enough Jan took a job as a teacher at a pre-school. She became a young childhood development expert and taught parenting classes to parents of infants. She wrote a book about raising creative children. She exercised her own creative side by being a street actress at the Renaissance Pleasure Faire making jewelry and traveling in South American and China with Charlie. When Charlie retired they moved to Georgetown and spent more than 25 years on The Divide. Jan had always wanted to garden and with the help of her son she developed a small vegetable garden and also grew beautiful irises. Jan was instrumental in starting the local farmers market. She also did yoga and learned to make the beautiful pine needle baskets which she became known for. She generously donated many baskets to local fundraising auctions. She also gave basket making classes and spent over a 1,000 hours as a docent at Marshall Gold Discovery State Park in Coloma. Jan helped start a story time for young children at the local library with her friend Hazel and gave organizing help to Art on The Divide when they were starting up. When caring for acreage became too much for Jan and Charlie they moved to the Eskaton Retirement Village in Placerville. Jan developed dementia and passed away May 5. She wants us to remember “There were bad times and joyous times but they were all good times.” She wants us to remember all the joyous times with family and friends. Her loving and generous spirit will be greatly missed by her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nephews, nieces and all her many friends throughout El Dorado County and beyond. She is survived by Charlie, her husband of 66 years; her children She’om David Rose, Lauri Rose and their spouses, Paula and Mark; her grandchildren Grace, Montara, Mojave, Laina and Mary and her great-grandchildren: Millie, Sophie, Audrey and Evangeline. She is preceded in death by her brothers and sisters-in-laws and by her granddaughter Juniper. In lieu of flowers please make donations to the Friends of the American River, Snowline Hospice or go out and buy some local art. Mom, we miss you already.

Patricia Ann Weeda Dec. 5, 1938 - May 6, 2021

Patricia “Patti” Ann Weeda, passed away on Thursday, May 6, at her residential care home in Folsom, Calif. Patricia’s ashes will be laid to rest at Amador Memorial Cemetery, together with late husband Patrick Kinn’s ashes. In addition to Patrick Kinn, Patricia was preceded in death by her parents Volney Earle Hawley and Vera Flossie Parks; Mark Hagan, Patricia’s son; Keith Hagan, father of Mark and John Hagan; late husbands, Robert Andersen and John Weeda. Patricia is survived by her son John Hagan, her sister Karen Van Spanje and nephews Tyler and Bradley Van Spanje. Patricia was born in Hawthorne, Calif., Dec 5, 1938. She spent her early years in Southern California before relocating to Northern California. She also spent several years in Montana before returning to Northern California. Patricia will be remembered for her dedication to the community and to many charitable causes including volunteering with Hospice Services, donating time with Mercy Hospital Folsom and volunteering many hours with causes related to her local Catholic Church and PEO organization. Patricia loved life and lived it to the fullest. She was well traveled, loved reading, the arts and painted many beautiful paintings herself. While living in Montana, Patricia also spent time giving tours as a docent for a historical local mansion. She worked many years as a paralegal and also spent some time working at her sister’s winery in Ione, Calif. Patricia loved to learn and never shied away from participating in new experiences. She always maintained a positive attitude, even this last year when her health declined. Patricia looked at the bright side of life, always with a healthy dose of dry humor tossed in. Patti will be remembered lovingly by family and friends as a “free spirit,” who’s spirit is now truly free.

A California Highway Patrol officer warns a motorist about violating the right-hand turn restriction at North Upper Truckee Road and Highway 50 in Meyers.

No tickets yet in Tahoe right turn restriction pilot program According to the California Highway Patrol, officers stopped 12 vehicles, including nine registered to out-of-town addresses, and let them off with warnings. Eleven of the vehicles were stopped at North Upper Truckee. “We gave lots of warnings but no citations yet,” said CHP Officer Ruth Loehr from the South Lake Tahoe office. “Not all of the mapping apps were showing the change so we’re trying to be as fair as possible.” Multiple road signs were installed in the first week of May to warn motorists of the pilot program, which is in effect 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sundays and holidays that fall

Tahoe Daily Tribune SOUTH LAKE TAHOE — Multiple vehicles were stopped Sunday, most of them Lake Tahoe visitors, for violating the new turn restrictions in South Lake Tahoe. The pilot program is designed to alleviate traffic in residential South Tahoe neighborhoods in the Meyers area. By not allowing right-hand turns for westbound travelers at North Upper Truckee and Sawmill roads at Highway 50, travel apps are not supposed to route traffic through those neighborhoods. But not all the apps were on the same page Sunday.

on Mondays through Oct. 31. If the pilot program works, the full program featuring 21 turn restrictions may be put into action during the winter season. CHP officials said they have received a lot of feedback. “There is definitely some push-back from locals and we have received some complaints here at the office,” said CHP Lt. Ken Nelson. “However, most of the feedback we have received has been supportive of the project and its goal to ease traffic in the neighborhoods. Also, there were no traffic accidents attributed to the left turns, which is an important data point we are monitoring. So far it is going well.”

every five years. This is our iteration of it and it’s kind of an evolving document every five years,” said Water Resources Manager Adam Brown. The plan delves through worst-case scenarios during droughts and determines how much water is needed if those numbers hit five years in a row. Brown said they use data from the worst year in the calculations. “It’s a real conservative approach,” said Interim GDPUD General Manager Jeff Nelson. Twenty-year demand projections show the district will have an adequate water

supply for the next two decades. “The demand tools are the same,” Brown said. “It outlines what our surplus would be so we still have supply during historically dry years.” The district supplied about 1,400 acre-feet of treated drinking water and 4,000 acre-feet of raw irrigation water in 2020. The projected numbers jump in 2040 to 1,800 and 5,000 acre-feet, respectively. Suggestions were made by the board and the public. The final draft will be presented during the June 8 board meeting and the plan must be adopted by the board before the June 30 state deadline.

California Matters

California’s population drop caps long trend

alifornia and national news organizations recently went a little berserk when the state Department of Finance announced that the state’s estimated population declined a bit in 2020. The overwrought articles made much DAN WALTERS of California’s having lost population for the first time in recorded history, with multiple references to the state’s reputation for steady — and sometimes spectacular — population growth since statehood was achieved in 1850 and its loss of one congressional seat. Apparently, those who treated the population numbers as an apocalyptic revelation hadn’t been paying attention because California had been heading toward zero or even negative population growth for at least a quarter-century, as those of us who track demographic trends had often noted. In fact, the Census Bureau last December estimated that during the 2019-20 fiscal year that ended last June 30, California lost the state’s population population last had declined — a report largely ignored by the year, but it’s not state’s media. a sudden event.

The overall loss was pegged at 182,083 and pandemicrelated deaths were responsible for a little more than a quarter of that decline. In other words, even if COVID-19 had not reared its ugly head, California would still have lost population due to long-term demographic trends — declining births, increasing deaths due to the aging of the population, a much-slowed rate of foreign immigration and losses in state-to-state migrations. California has been a net loser in the latter factor for at least two decades, with more people moving to other states — Texas the No. 1 destination — than we gain from other states. The Public Policy Institute of California delved into that phenomenon just a few days before the Department of Finance released its new population numbers. “During the 2010s about 6.1 million people moved from California to other states, while only 4.9

Letters to the Editor Open letter to the Board of Supervisors EDITOR: t’s an article of faith within the GOP that “guvmint” is inherently incompetent, if not evil. So, when they come to power, Republicans spare no effort to prove themselves right. Trump’s appointments were laced with people inimical to their agency’s goals. Rick Perry, who famously swore to abolish the Energy Department, was appointed Secretary of Energy. Bush II appointed the chief lobbyist for the lead industry to head the EPA. Nearly every major appointee, from Nixon to Trump, took office with the intention of cutting down the agency they led, if abolishing it outright. Trump acolyte, Supervisor George Turnboo, is carrying on this GOP tradition at the local level. Two of his nominees, Chris Cockrell and Keeley Link, were respectively appointed to the Veterans Commission and the Commission on Aging. Cockrell has been associated with the Proud Boys, a neo-Nazi group, and Link is active in a variety of right-wing fringe groups, including an anti-vaccination one. She, and Turnboo, have called the county’s anti-COVID efforts “tyranny.” How many seniors agree with this idiocy? How could the Board of Supervisors entrust a medical Luddite like Link with giving advice on helping our most medically vulnerable citizens? Only one supervisor, Ms. Novacel, voted against Link’s appointment. John Hidahl, the passive board chair, has allowed Turnboo to use his position to salt the county government with anti-government bomb throwers. What’s next, Mr. Turnboo? Proposing an illiterate county librarian who also promotes book burning? JOHN GARON Placerville

Ask yourself

homophobe. I realize that you have very little time in your life for research what with all your letter writing to editors and watching Fox News so Hannity and Carlson can tell you how to think, but you should really sit down one day and listen to the rhetoric of Rush. It’s not hard to find his words. Here, let me help you: Misogyny: Limbaugh called Sandra Fluke a “slut” and a “prostitute” for advocating for universal contraceptive coverage. He also said, “Feminism was established so as to allow unattractive women access to the mainstream of society.” Homophobia: Here’s a line that you might think is funny. “When a gay person turns his back on you, it is anything but an insult; it’s an invitation.” Racism: I am aware of Bo Snerdley (AKA James Golden) and I am aware that he is African American. I’m not even certain that they were friends. Mr. Golden worked for Limbaugh as a call screener and a producer. But even if they were friends, are you seriously making the argument that Rush Limbaugh can’t be a racist because he has an African American friend? I wonder how Mr. Golden felt when Rush repeatedly played “Barack, the Magic Negro” on his show when the then-future president was just a very popular senator? Maybe he thought that it was funny. Maybe not. Who knows for sure? I wonder how he felt when his boss made this comment to a Black caller with whom he disagreed, “Take that bone out of your nose and call me back.” Now, I didn’t mean for my words to trigger any conservative snowflakes and I’m sorry if I hurt your feelings. But if I did, I just ask that you read the vitriol that Rush Limbaugh spewed throughout his career and simply ask yourself, “Was he a racist? A misogynist? A homophobe? Or am I just too comfortable with this kind of ideology?” The answer is within you. JEFFREY SCOTT Placerville

EDITOR:

r. Alger, thank you very much for your critique of my critique of Mr. Weitzman’s fawning over Rush Limbaugh. You are correct, sir. It was improper of me to label Rush Limbaugh as a racist. I was remiss in the fact that I did not add misogynist and

founding documents that they were confident would ultimately place that wicked institution upon the course of ultimate extinction and would lead to a republic where men and women of every race and background could together enjoy the blessings of liberty. Equal justice under law means a colorblind society where race simply becomes irrelevant and, until recently, we had made tremendous progress toward that vision as a nation. Martin Luther King Jr. expressed the gold standard of racial harmony: that we should be judged by the content of our character and not the color of our skin. It is the equal protection of the law and the vision of colorblind society stretching from the American Founders to Lincoln and King that are now under attack by the racist left. Yes, there are racists in our society. There are racists of all colors in every society; it is the baser side of human nature. But no nation has struggled harder to transcend that nature and isolate and marginalize its racists than have Americans. And, yes, extremely damaging and foolish policies have

disproportionately impacted Black communities in recent decades. Union-dominated schools that have failed to educate children in inner cities, welfare programs that destroyed families and the withdrawal of police protection from crimeplagued neighborhoods are certainly among them. But these policies devastate every community where they are practiced regardless of race. The answer is to change those policies — not to excuse them because they are ideologically pleasing to the left. The racist left is content to ignore all of these current ills. It instead attempts to set neighbor against neighbor and American against American on the basis of their race. They say this is healing. It is precisely the opposite. They know it. Indeed, they count on it. Americans of goodwill of every race and creed have had enough of this. They are tired of seeing our children taught to hate themselves and to hate each other. They are tired of seeing our country demonized as racist by those whose first and solitary focus

million people moved to California from other parts of the country,” the PPIC report states. “People who move to California are different from those who move out. In general, those who move here are more likely to be working age, to be employed and to earn high wages — and are less likely to be in poverty — than those who move away. “Those who move to California also tend to have higher education levels than those who move out, an especially important factor given the state’s strong need for college graduates. Notably, this gain in educated residents is concentrated among young college graduates (generally, adults in their 20s) looking for opportunities as they start their careers,” the report notes. Between 2010 and 2019, PPIC calculated from federal census data, California had a net gain of 154,500 adults with college educations from other states and net loss of 777,400 with high school educations or less. Superficially, that appears to be a positive exchange, but it should be troubling because the state has a chronic shortage of skilled blue-collar workers. While, as PPIC notes, California’s high housing costs are a big factor in pushing people out of the state, a lack of construction workers is a major factor in our inability to build enough housing.

The syndrome also applies to many other bluecollar fields vital to our daily lives, such as auto mechanics. Demographics, it’s been said, are destiny. Whether California is gaining or losing population is less important than whether we will continue to evolve into a highly stratified society with a relatively small, but very affluent, overclass, a shrinking middle class and a huge underclass mired in structural poverty.

Not all contractors are the same. Some are not up-front and honest. Some don’t specialize in the repair or replacement of older air conditioners. They may only carry one brand and they seem to be at a loss when it comes to servicing a unit they’ve never seen. Others only jump into the business during the busy season and are hard to find when you really need them. Often, they fail to show up on time while you waste your entire day waiting. And worse, when they do finally arrive, they act as though they were doing you a favor! We don’t do business like that. We specialize in service on all airconditioning brands… new or old.

Daily Applegarth stands with her parents as she and the rest of the Cougars basketball team seniors were honored before Tuesday’s match with Union Mine. Applegarth was unable to play the majority of her junior and senior season because of injuries. The coaches at Folsom Lake College have offered the defensive wizard a chance to play as a Falcon.

Seniors shine in finale Thomas Frey Staff writer

n RUBES by Leigh Rubin

After four years of Hailey Kimber, Chloe Blankenship, Daily Applegarth, Haley Kline and Tiffany Brewster playing basketball for El Dorado High School, the five friends walked out of the gym for the final time as Cougars after a 60-40 win over Union Mine Tuesday on senior night. “We all wanted it so bad,” said Brewster, who scored 12 points. “I don’t know how I’d feel if we lost, but it’s the best feeling ever honestly.” Brewster helped the Cougars jump out to a 12-point halftime lead by scoring 8 points in the first half and thwarting Union Mine shot attempts. The Cougars led 34-22 at halftime and started off the second half scoring 12 straight points. “We were just really advancing

the ball well and our defense was incredible,” said Kimber. “We were just stopping shooters. Tiffany and Chloe were getting under-the-basket shots, it was incredible.” Kimber had 9 points in her final home game but made her mark on glass. All night the senior who is headed to Butte College skied for rebounds and hauled in 19. It made head coach Larry Gray proud. Before the season Gray challenged Kimber to fill the shoes left by Kim Quicksall, who graduated in 2020. “I said, ‘Look, you’ve got to make up 10-plus rebounds a game that we lose with Kim, and then you’ve got to score in double figures every night. You’ve got a lot of responsibility,’” Gray said. “She met the challenge this year.” n

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). Much has been added to your life — relationships, responsibilities, interests, material items — and going forward, you can’t take it all. It’s, once again, time to decide which endeavors are worth committing to. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The old you would have been eager to define things early on, but you’re now wondering if it’s necessary or even beneficial. Definitions are limits. Mysteries are limitless. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The tendency to go into debt isn’t limited to finance. In fact, the little debts that get racked up between people can have a debilitating effect on relationships. Don’t let anyone get too far in the hole with you. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are those who will try and convince you of a need that doesn’t exist. Things only become outdated if there are now other things that work better. Be careful not to pay to fix a thing that isn’t broken. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ll strengthen your mind/ body/spirit connection, and it all happens with physical exertion. Every time you work on your body, it will become increasingly receptive to the command of your mind and the intuition of your spirit. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have to set your plan in action to know where the problems are. Start now while there are people around you who can help you do what needs to be done.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Why would anyone willingly offer up their work for scrutiny? To improve, of course. Only the courageous and the serious will proactively take this option, and you are definitely in that group. You want to be the best. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You don’t have to be in a position to make a change to dream about your options. Fantasies are supposed to be impractical. Think of it as shopping for your future with no obligation to buy. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The line between sharing and oversharing is liable to be ignored, blurred or completely crossed. Most people won’t mind knowing a little more than they need to. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Money is not the root of all evil; evil is! Money is just a sophisticated bartering system that can be used for purposes as varied as the people who advance them. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). When you care, you care deeply. When you notice, you notice a lot. What’s going on around you will be as exciting and thoughtprovoking as your commitment level to it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). As for mental arguments that only you can hear, they do serve a purpose. You’ll work out the pros and cons of a decision before you ever take the risk. Contain your deliberations inside a time frame though, or they’ll steal your day.

Foresthill’s Ryan Robinson remained calm, cool and collected through several slowdowns in the winged sprint car feature before pulling away at the end to tally his first career Placerville Speedway triumph Saturday. Robinson, the son of threetime track champion and 23-time Placerville winner David Robinson Jr., took the lead early and looked impressive out front en route to the big win. Sharing victory lane on Mountain Democrat Kids Bike Night were Tyler Lightfoot with the limited late models, Nick Baldwin with the pure stocks and Mike Miller in the mini truck division. Thanks to the graciousness of several individuals a total of 25 bikes were given away to youngsters in attendance.

Winged 360s At the waving of the green flag in the winged 360 A-main it was past Marysville champion Michael Ing who blasted into the lead. The Chico driver looked fast all night and held command until Ryan Robinson slipped to his inside on lap six for the lead. Following a restart on lap eight

Ing took a shot at reclaiming the point but got sideways and slipped up over the cushion to bring out a yellow flag. An excessive number of cautions and a couple reds plagued the contest but Robinson never faltered out front and rocketed away on the final restart to pick up the checkered flag by nearly four seconds over his nearest competitor. Despite Robinson having his way with things out front the clash for second over the closing laps remained a good one. Roseville’s Colby Copeland fought his way forward to cross the stripe in second, followed by 15-year-old Joel Myers Jr. of Sebastopol, Placerville’s Shane Hopkins and another 15-yearold youngster Dylan Bloomfield. For the Oakley racer it marked his first Placerville top five in just his third winged 360 start at the track. Rounding out the top 10 were Justyn Cox, Justin Bradway, Stephen Ingraham, John Clark and Bubba Decaires. Bradway and Ingraham were two of the biggest movers and shakers during the feature. Bradway had a solid run carving his way from 18th to seventh, while Ingraham was the Hard Charger with his run from 20th to eighth. n

Homewood’s new electric watersport boat gets a charge before heading out onto the lake.

1st electric boat charging station installed at Tahoe News release HOMEWOOD — Homewood Resort’s Marina is home to the first on-the-water, electric boat charging station on Lake Tahoe. Following in the footsteps of the automotive industry’s transition to electric vehicles, the boating industry is moving in the same direction, with Homewood Resort’s Marina and its management company, JMA Ventures LLC, leading the transition at Lake Tahoe. “We are excited to take this step into electric watersport recreation and to be the first in Lake Tahoe to make it possible,” states Kevin Mitchell, Homewood Resort’s general manager in a press release. “This effort is perfectly aligned with the environmental goals of our resort and our plans to revitalize the West Shore with the redevelopment of Homewood as a year-round adventure residential community that prioritizes environmental improvement and sustainable design.” The resort’s redevelopment project’s initial phase is slated to break ground this summer with state-of-theart environmental redevelopment and stewardship practices. With this plan, the resort will set a benchmark showcasing how a

thoughtfully designed redevelopment is the path for Tahoe’s economic and environmental well-being. The installation of EB charging stations at the marina aligns with the resort’s redevelopment by leading cutting-edge sustainability initiatives in the boating industry in Lake Tahoe. In partnership with Ingenity and Superior Boat Repair & Sales, beginning June 1 marina guests can experience the world’s first 100% electric watersport boat, the Super Air Nautique GS22E, powered by Ingenity. In 2020, backed by the support of the Tahoe Fund, the marina installed its first on-water charger and over the past year the marina has been working closely with local utilities to upgrade the charging service to power two 100KW Level 3 Fast DC chargers to their harbor. “We have been working with the Ingenity team on this project for more than three years and protecting the unique natural resource of Lake Tahoe has always been our priority so installing an on-the-water EB charging stations at the Marina is 100% in alignment with our commitment,” said David Topol, director of the Homewood Resort’s n

Grassroots championship auto racing continues at Placerville Speedway Sunday night with an exciting four-division program. Fresh off a third-place finish, 15-year-old Joel Myers Jr. finds himself atop the winged 360 sprint car standings. The Sebastopol driver holds a 22-point advantage over one of the all-time greats in track history, Andy Forsberg of Auburn. Forsberg, who is also known as “Sprint Car Andy” will be gunning to try and close the gap between himself and the youngster Myers. Placerville veteran Andy Gregg has shown speed this season and goes into this weekend ranking third in points. Placerville’s Shane Hopkins and threetime feature winner this year Justin Sanders of Aromas complete the top five. Landon Brooks, Justin Bradway, Michael Ing, Tanner Carrick and Isaiah Vasquez round out the top 10 heading into the sixth winged sprint car point race of the season. The limited late models feature a logjam at the top of the standings. Auburn’s Ray Trimble has snagged a pair of victories already in the young season and holds a six-point advantage over Diamond Springs’ Dan Jinkerson. Placerville’s own Tyler Lightfoot captured a big win Saturday and is now just eight points out of the lead. Tom Tilford of Orangevale and Woodland’s Kiely Ricardo, who is coming off a podium last week, complete the top five in points. The pure stock division has also continued to provide close competition and entertaining racing. Oakley’s Nick Baldwin has been on the top of his game and leads the standings on the strength of three wins and six top five finishes. Diamond Springs racer Kevin Jinkerson has also been a consistent force at the front of the pack and sits 14-markers behind Baldwin for the point lead. Sacramento’s Jason

Palmer, Placerville’s Jonny Walsh and Dan Jinkerson round out the top five. The Placerville bullring will also welcome in the Nor-Cal Dwarf Association. The colorful coupes always provide excitement and bring healthy car counts everywhere they compete. The dwarf cars have contested one event so far at the El Dorado County Fairgrounds venue, a race won by Galt’s Ryan Winter. Colfax driver Ben Wiesz put on a thrilling charge to finish second during that event. Fairfield’s275119 Mike Grenert, Camarillo’s Nick Velasquez and Placerville’s Corey Eaton also brought home solid finishes. The pit gate will open at noon Sunday, with the front grandstand gate opening at 3 p.m. The pit meeting will be held at 4:30 p.m. with cars on the track at 5. Hot laps, ADCO Driveline qualifying and racing will follow. The Placerville Speedway is located on the El Dorado County Fairgrounds in Placerville, 100 Placerville Dr.

Limited late models Over the last several years one of the biggest supporters of Placerville Speedway has been the Lightfoot Automotive team that brings out multiple cars at each event. On Saturday night it was Placerville’s own Tyler Lightfoot who shined the brightest with the limited late models and picked up an entertaining 20-lap victory. A fast and furious feature saw Lightfoot holding command every step of the way but over the closing circuits would be hounded by Yuba City’s Rod Oliver. With Lightfoot out front Oliver closed in lap after lap and had a shot on the final tour of the speedway. Lightfoot hung tough though and earned his third career limited late model triumph at the track over Oliver, Woodland’s Kiely Ricardo, Auburn’s Ray Trimble and Orangevale’s Tom Tilford.

blazing inferno in the pure stock division and that continued last night as he scooped up this third win on the season. Baldwin started from the pole and cruised to his 11th career Placerville Speedway victory. Diamond Springs wheelman Dan Jinkerson came home in second followed by brother Kevin Jinkerson, Rio Linda’s Ryan Peter and Placerville youngster Jonny Walsh. The pure stocks as always put on a solid contest with pristine track conditions on Saturday.

Mini trucks The 20-lap mini truck main event was a keenly contested battle that saw Rancho Cordova’s Mike Miller earn the victory over Thomas Jensen, Aaron Rupley, Kevin Tremblay and Paizlee Miller. The feature was slightly short on trucks but not short of entertaining racing, which has become customary for the division.

Marina in the press release. “It’s exciting to see this project come to life and provide an electric boat experience at our location this summer. We look forward to sharing this with everyone.” The battery-operated, zero-emission GS22E, developed by Nautique’s Ingenity Electric, was designed to meet the most rigorous watersports demands. The award-winning Ingenity Electric system operates using clean energy that delivers optimal performance for watersports allowing for up to three hours of continuous run time during watersports. Bob Bense, owner of Superior Boat Sales & Repair said the GS22E electric watersport boat is available for pre-purchase for others interested in owning

one. “Homewood is the perfect place to showcase how Ingenity has combined the latest in environmentally friendly propulsion technology with one of the most demanding applications on the water … the watersports boat,” said Sean Marrero, president of Ingenity. “We also decided early on to adopt automotive standards for charging. This has made it easy for Ingenity to provide a menu of charging solutions for both residential and commercial applications like the one at Homewood. These are industry firsts, and boating enthusiasts who share our commitment to protecting the environment are going to be impressed by what the Nautique GS22E can do.”

complaints have also come from that larger community, she said. Wendy Thomas, District 3 supervisor, reminded the board and public, “As an agricultural county, are we at the forefront of an emerging industry? “The General Plan provides for the right to farm and perhaps our best move forward is to direct staff to allow permittees to continue operations while we study and work on an ordinance.” Thomas suggested November as a potential deadline for an additional, comprehensive report. Sheriff John D’Agostini weighed in from his office, saying, “We basically had a pilot program (the existing hemp season) and it was a dismal failure.” Three out of four grow operations that the Sheriff ’s Office investigated were non-compliant, he said; that is they were growing marijuana (maybe intentionally) along with the hemp. He further referred to violations nationwide and locally surrounding hemp and cannabis cultivation, describing “gunfights and other big problems,” including the appearance of “Mexican drug trafficking organizations.” D’Agostini also advised the board “continue to focus on getting a commercial cannabis ordinance under control. I don’t believe the value (of hemp growing) outweighs the costs.” Public comment ranged from full support for a hemp ordinance as soon as possible to wait for more research to ahead with a “permanent ban” as proposed in the interim ordinance/moratorium. Eventually supervisors voted 4-1 to “direct staff, Sheriff ’s Office, Agriculture Department and Economic Development manager to fully explore the issue with the Agriculture Commission and return with an update and recommendation in November 2021.” Lori Parlin represented the opposition vote.

Bass Lake beauty

Mountain Democrat photos by Krysten Kellum

Wildflowers and wildlife abound at Bass Lake Regional Park in El Dorado Hills. Bird species scurry about the shore, jackrabbits jump from bush to bush and monkey flower, pictured May 8, top right, saturates the landscape in yellow. Bass Lake was once known as the American Reservoir and part of Gold Rush-era flume and ditch systems. Between the 1850s and 1930s the reservoir was owned by several different water companies that controlled the flumes. In the late 1930s the lake was home to Bass Lake Resort, a privately owned recreation destination. El Dorado Irrigation District purchased the property in 1969 and in the decades that followed parts of it were acquired by the Rescue Union School District, El Dorado County and Parker Development before the El Dorado Hills Community Services District bought all 142 acres piecemeal with the final acres coming in 2020.

A pair of fisherman, left photo, patiently wait for a bite. In the dry season Bass Lake can be as shallow as 5 feet and when winter rain comes as deep as 15 feet. A pond to the east of Bass Lake, center photo, is surrounded by wildflowers. At present there is about a 3-mile dirt trail that loops the lake and passes through oak woodland, right photo. The EDHCSD has proposed plans to put in more trails, a boat dock, dog park, play area, picnic facilities and other amenities.

1011 St. Andrews Dr., El Dorado Hills (2.5 miles off Hwy. 50 on El Dorado Hills Blvd.)

Continued from A8 who runs Gray Physical Therapy in Diamond Springs, five days a week to get better. “He helped me walk again pretty much,” Applegarth said. She returned to the game as a senior but about two minutes into her first game she went down again — this time a meniscus tear. Applegarth said the team and coaching staff have been her life support. “That’s why I’m still standing here and why I still come to games,” Applegarth said. When she was honored before the game along with all of the team’s seniors, she and her parents had trouble holding back tears. “This team means the world to me,” Applegarth said. “I’ve been playing with most of them for as long as I can remember and they’ve become a part of who I am.” For the majority of the last two seasons she has been the team’s biggest supporter but in her first two seasons she was a team leader in passing and defending. As a freshman and sophomore Applegarth had 14 games where she made at least four steals. “With all that, the coaches at Folsom Lake College said ‘We want her,’” Gray said. “She’s a great outside shooter, an incredible ball handler and probably the best defender.” As a sophomore Applegarth and the Cougars were one game away from a section championship but had to meet a West Campus High School team featuring Gabby Rones, who averaged more than 17 points per game and now plays at the University of Nevada. Applegarth was in charge of covering Rones. She didn’t let Rones get off any easy shots and allowed only eight of her 29 field goal attempts. The Cougars took West Campus to overtime before falling 43-40. Four years after these five seniors entered high school, they leave behind a blueprint for every future girl who dons an El Dorado jersey. For Gray, who has coached at El Dorado for 20 years, the last 16 as head coach, the last four years have been more than memorable. “It’s been a joy because of their dedication, their love for the game, the passion. It’s just been an absolute joy.”

Chloe Blankenship also was a major factor on the boards, particularly the offensive glass. Gray said she is an elite offensive rebounder. Against Union Mine she pulled down 10 rebounds with four of them being the offensive variety. She will play at Allan Hancock College. She said her favorite memory was hitting a 3-point shot against Union Mine as a freshman while getting fouled and then draining the accompanying free throw in the final seconds to lead the Cougars to a onepoint win. It was one of many highlights the team has had over its last four years. Many of the girls have played together since they were kids and they all said one of their favorite experiences was going to basketball camp at Oregon State University multiple times. In Corvallis, Ore., the team not only improved immensely on the floor but also off the floor. One year the team won the skit competition after doing an act on referees. “We had so much fun, we spent like a week together,” said senior Haley Kline. “It was just so much fun with all the girls I’ve played with since I was little.” Kline has started in every game since she was a freshman. She finished with 10 points and 9 rebounds against Union Mine. “She’s such a built-in leader that I have to have her on the floor,” Gray said. “She puts people in positions and she encourages them. She hits big-time threes and she defends really well.” Kline was a big reason the Cougars were able to keep winning in the playoffs last season as El Dorado battled for the section championship at Golden 1 Center. The journey to get to the Golden 1 Center is what Applegarth remembers most. “We were playing Calaveras to determine if we would go to Golden 1 Center or not,” Applegarth said. “I remember the buzzer going off and it just meant so much because we were going to Golden 1 Center and we had a chance to win the section title.” It was a game Applegarth didn’t get to play in. She tore her ACL during a tournament in December of her junior year and missed the rest of that season. She worked with Gray,

The Wilsey Court Installation by Waterlily Pond enchants visitors at the Bouquets to Art Opening Gala in 2019 at de Young Museum in San Francisco. This year’s event promises to be equally dazzling and features in-person and online events.

Fine Arts Museum fundraiser blooms once more at de Young News release

AN FRANCISCO — The Bay Area’s beloved floral fundraiser, Bouquets to Art, returns this June for its 37th year with fresh summer blooms to seed new life into the de Young’s permanent collection. For one week only, June 8-13, more than 100 of the region’s most innovative and sought-after floral designers converge at the de Young to showcase dazzling works inspired by the museum’s paintings, sculptures, objects and architecture. One of the Fine Arts Museum of San Francisco’s most popular events, tickets to the on-site event are almost sold out. Those who can’t make it on-site still have the opportunity to see the exhibition from home with a Bouquets to Art Virtual Visit. This 360-degree tour provides an in-depth look with unobstructed views of every floral design in the galleries, filled with behindthe-scenes details and curator picks. The virtual tour is free for museum members and $10 for the general public. In addition,

De Young visitors will enjoy colorful flowers that complement the gallery’s art (like these 2019 displays) during the Bouqeuts to Art exhibition opening in early June. a separate virtual opportunity is available with internationally renowned designer Soho Sakai. For the first time, bouquets are presented in dialogue with collection highlights in the arts of Africa and Oceania galleries. In addition, Bouquets to Art features a largescale aerial piece to preside above Wilsey Court, plus plenty of perennial Bouquets to Art favorites, such as Frederic Edwin Church’s Rainy Season in the Tropics (1866). Over the past 37 years, this popular event — presented by the volunteer members

of the San Francisco Auxiliary of the Fine Arts Museums — has drawn nearly 800,000 visitors, with net proceeds of more than $7 million. Funds from Bouquets to Art help underwrite special exhibitions, conservation projects and educational programs at the Legion of Honor and the de Young. Bouquets to Art is presented by the San Francisco Auxiliary of the Fine Arts Museums. Diane B. Wilsey is the Bouquets to Art grand patron, Lorna Meyers is the honorary opening preview chair and Tracy Barsotti and

Jennifer Forbeck are the Bouquets to Art co-chairs. Membersonly viewing hours are available 6-9 p.m. June 9 & 10, and photography-free hours take place 3:30-5 p.m. June 10 and 9:30 a.m. to noon June 11.

PROSPECTING Lotus businesses bank on the river ... and each other Sherri Bergmann Special to the Mountain Democrat

Co., which sits nestled in a different small plaza but right on the river, shared their slice of life in Lotus. “This place used to be called Squally’s On the River. Right in the middle of COVID-19 last July the three owners — Shawn and Stephanie Martin and Zach Hall — bought it and turned it around. People from all over the world come to this river for the whitewater rafting. But during the off seasons, it is the locals who keep us alive. Without our locals, we have nothing.” Open every day of the week, WhiteWater Pizza Co. offers live music on the weekends and a prime view overlooking the river from a deck lined with lights and tables. An outdoor bar on the deck is in the works. Two other well-visited places that provide great food and live music, Marco’s Café and the Coloma Club Bar and Restaurant with pool tables and karaoke year-round, also attract attention from afar and locally. Justin Boyd, owner of Marco’s Café along with his wife Veronica, have owned the very popular, seasonal gathering place for 14 years. The get loyal visitors from Sacramento, the Bay Area and have 43 bands booked for the summer to ensure a good

hen a small business owner wants to expand, it would be logical to choose a well-populated area and a location that offers prominent visibility. Brittney Newmarch, owner of Hair by Brittney, has chosen a different approach, moving her business from a popular Cameron Park salon that attracts customers from the busy surrounding areas to Lotus. This tiny foothills town nestled on the South Fork of the American River has a population of approximately 624. Not sure if her customers would travel the extra miles when they could easily find other good stylists near where they live, Newmarch said she decided to bank on the river anyway. Although Lotus teems with life in the warm seasons, attracting whitewater rafters from all over the world, RV campers and outdoor enthusiasts, how does this isolated town survive during the off seasons when tourist traffic trickles appreciably down? Blue Lotus 530 Handmade Gifts, a co-op of many talented local artisans, has an answer. “Our successes are directly

Musician Daisy Caire returns to the stage this weekend in Sacramento.

Local virtuoso plans live show Andrew Vonderschmitt Staff writer

aisy Caire has been playing music since she first plucked a baritone ukulele and sang with her family’s outfit, the El Dorado Family Band, at age 6. Fast forward 10 years and she has released her first album with original and traditional music. Now she is planning her first live appearance since the pandemic hit, playing at the Side Door in Sacramento on Saturday, May 22. The show starts at 7 p.m. and in-person tickets are $20. Livestream tickets are available for $10. Live seating is extremely limited due to socialdistancing restrictions. “I’m so excited to play live again,” said Caire. “It’s been over a year since my last live show and I’ve really missed the in-person connection that live shows provide. It will be such

a treat to collaborate with fellows musicians and connect with the audience in an in-person setting.” Although the rest of her family does indeed play music, Caire admits she has had a singular drive to create music for most of her life. She has learned how to play the guitar, fiddle and ukulele to name a few. She, in fact, has become so adept that she also teaches guitar to ages 7 and older. Under normal circumstances she holds classes on the Charles Brown Elementary School campus in El Dorado. Currently the lessons are restricted to current students on campus but when restrictions are lifted lessons will be available to the general public. Caire’s motivation in music has introduced her to collaborating with many artists through the years. She has been a member of several youth ■

Incline Village collective brings artists together Miranda Jacobson Tahoe Daily Tribune It was February 2020 when artist Ryan “RYNo” Bahlman realized he needed to find an art studio. “I was doing art out of my condo and there was not enough room,” Bahlman said. “I needed more space. I was sitting on the edge of my couch doing paintings thinking, ‘This is not working.’ “So I was looking at spots and a lot of them were too small, a lot were too big and expensive. I came across this spot and I figured it would be perfect for me.” The spot is The Hive Collective, located on Tanager Street in Incline Village. Realizing the space had room for more people, Bahlman decided to expand. “I figured I worked better around other artists and collab situations,” Bahlman said. “So I started

up of like-minded artists who create a safe environment and overall good vibes in the studio. The medium of art ranges from painting to screen printing. “We do a membership,” said Bahlman. “It’s sort of a word-ofmouth thing and people who come in that are interested. As long as we’re on the same page, that’s kind of the way we do it.” The spot is also great for events. So far Bahlman and the Hive Collective have hosted music nights, as well as music practice for artists. “There’s a DJ booth so we can definitely throw some events here. I’m open to any ideas if someone wants to come in,” Bahlman said. “This summer we’ll start to do a lot more. We’re doing a yoga class here on Saturday with a DJ.” One artist who creates at The Hive Collective ■

musician, Caire is not putting all her future plans into the music world. Currently a sophomore she plans to attend an undergraduate program possibly in environmental studies once she graduates from Charter University Prep. The only criteria that a good school has to have for her, at this point, is proximity to music and whitewater as she recently found a love for rafting. Being self-managed has been a challenge as well. Caire said the making of her debut album took two years and several road trips, studio sessions and hard work. She admits that the lockdowns definitely lent some difficulty to the process but she shared she’s very happy to be able to share what she has made with the public.

About the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, comprising the de Young in Golden Gate Park and the Legion of Honor in Lincoln Park, are the largest public arts institution in San Francisco. The de Young originated from the 1894 California Midwinter International Exposition in Golden Gate Park and was established as the Memorial Museum in 1895. It was later renamed in honor of Michael H. de Young, who spearheaded its creation. The present copper-clad landmark building, designed by Herzog and de Meuron, opened in October 2005. It holds the institution’s significant collections of American painting, sculpture, and decorative arts from the 17th to the 21st centuries; art from Africa, Oceania and the Americas; costume and textile arts; and international modern and contemporary art.

Castro

Continued from B4

and more information call (916) 355-8586 or visit powerhousepub.com. Born in San Jose in 1955, Castro first picked up a guitar at age 10. He fell under the spell of Eric Clapton, Elvin Bishop, Taj Mahal, Mike Bloomfield and other blues-rockers. Almost every major rock and soul act, from Ike and Tina Turner to Janis Joplin to Elvin Bishop to Taj Mahal, toured through the area and Castro was at every show. He saw John Lee Hooker, Albert King and Buddy Guy and Junior Wells at the same local blues bar, JJ’s, where he often jammed, dreaming of one day busting out. Mixing the blues-rock he loved and the soul music he heard blasting out from his Mexican friends’ lowriders, Castro started to create his own personal sound and style. He honed his guitar skills and intense vocals, learning how to capture an audience as he performed on San Jose’s highly competitive bar scene. As his reputation spread, Tommy played in a variety of Bay Area blues and soul bands, soon making a name for himself as a hotter-than-hot live artist bursting at the seams with talent. He joined Warner Brothers’ artists The Dynatones in the late 1980s, gigging all over the country. After forming the first Tommy Castro Band in 1991, Castro released a series of critically acclaimed CDs for Blind Pig, Telarc and 33rd Street Records, as well as one on his own Heart And Soul label. He signed with Alligator Records in 2009, releasing “Hard Believer” to massive acclaim. Castro formed the first incarnation of The Painkillers in 2012 and released “The Devil You Know.” By 2014 (with Brown and Emerson taking over drums and keys, respectively) they had become a lean, mean four-piece lineup. The current band released “Method To My Madness” in 2015 and “Stompin’ Ground” in 2017, with critics shouting praise and admirers cheering the group’s every move. Blues Revue said simply, “Tommy Castro can do no wrong.”
