He died peacefully on May 21 with his wife of 64 years, Jenny, by his side. He was 98. After retiring from a career as a commercial airline pilot, Wally remained true to his roots, never wavering from the power of human connection. “‘This is your captain speaking,’” Wally mimicked his pilot self when we sat down in late 2020 for an See WALLY, page A6

Cameron Park essentials

June 1, 2022

Message from the CPCSD Lots to do in June in Cameron Park

arm weather is back, there’s more daylight into the evening and school’s out ... it must be June. Before we’re too far into the month, let’s look at a checklist that could be the start of a great summer. • Go swimming at the Cameron Park Community Pool — Recreational swim begins June 6 and is open Sunday through Friday, 1-4 pm, and on Saturdays 6-8:30 pm. Go to cameronpark.org for more info. • Visit Royal Park on Country Club Drive — This park has an improved trail and is a great place for a short hike. Check it out. • Go to the Summer Spectacular — It’s back! The event starts at 4 p.m. Saturday, June 25, at Cameron Park Lake and includes live music, a kids’ fun zone, food trucks, adult beverages and our awesome fireworks show. Admission is $10 for ages 4 and older. Go to cameronpark.org for more info. • Clear weeds, vegetation and other fuels away from your home — Yup, time to do this for your home and family. Create a defensible space and be fire safe. • Listen to good music — Whatever your genre, play them tunes and enjoy. • Have a cold one — Nothing says summer like a big ol’ iced tea or your choice of beverage. • Eat some ice cream — Whatever your favorite flavor, single or double scoop, treat yourself to some with family and friends. I dare you not to smile. • Celebrate the Summer Solstice — According to my sundial it’s on June 21 ... bring on summer!

Whatever your style — it’s time to celebrate summer. Get out there and enjoy the sunshine. Summer Challenge: Turn off your mobile phone for a day. Why? Because there’s a great summer ahead. Place that device in a drawer and go do something fun, productive or both. It will be there waiting for you when the day is done (do this and get another ice cream). Repeat as needed.

Members of the greater Sacramento community recently gathered to hear from a panel of experts concerning online exploitation and human trafficking. As the COVID pandemic swept across the world in 2020, another pandemic increased in the community — human trafficking. To shed light on human trafficking in the community, attendees heard from El Dorado Hills Assistant District Attorney Lisette Suder, Sacramento Deputy District Attorney Courtney Martin, Sacramento DA Investigator Annette Fucles, Department of Justice Special Agent Jason Nichols and Ashlie Bryant, CEO 3Strands Global Foundation. Panelists gave important information regarding how online exploitation and human trafficking have changed since the pandemic and how children are targeted. They explained what they see locally in the community and highlighted the importance of prevention. Panelists answered questions such as: What is online exploitation and human

trafficking, and how could it affect my child? How can I navigate a conversation about online safety with my child? What does prevention look like? And what is something I can do today to help? “Human traffickers did not stop their exploitation when the pandemic hit. We have seen increases in the crime since March 2020 and we have continued to protect those most vulnerable to human trafficking,” said Ashlie Bryant CEO 3Strands Global Foundation. “Today’s event was an opportunity to highlight why we must continue to be vigilant and aware of human trafficking so we can get resources to those who are victimized.” 3Strands Global Foundation is a California-based nonprofit with the mission to mobilize communities to combat human trafficking through prevention education programs in schools and reintegration job programs for survivors and at-risk youth.

Last month the El Dorado Hills Endowment, known for its Giving Circle, Buy-a-Day Golf Tournament and annual grant cycle for nonprofits serving the community of El Dorado Hills, made a branding cchange to the c El Dorado Hills Area Foundation (EDHAF for short). The reason behind

this name change is to extend more broadly to the surrounding communities in Cameron Park, Folsom and beyond as local needs are not defined by any single ZIP code. The mission of EDHAF has not changed but has been refined to better capture its core values of inspiration, integration and invigoration. Learn more about EDHAF by visiting the website at edhaf.org.

At their Regular Board Meeting on May 18, 2022, the Buckeye Union School District Governing Board took action to fill this vacancy by making a provisional appointment rather than holding a costly special election.

(Education Code Section 5091 [e]) Applications are now being accepted from any qualified person interested in filling this vacancy. All eligible residents are welcome to apply. According to California Education Code 35107(a): Any person, regardless of sex, who is 18 years of age or older, a citizen of the state, a resident of the school district, a registered voter, and who is not disqualified by the Constitution or laws of the state from holding a civil office, is eligible to be elected or appointed a member of a governing board of a school district without further qualifications. Applications are available from the Buckeye Union School District office, 5049 Robert J. Mathews Parkway, El Dorado Hills, California. Completed applications must be returned to the Buckeye Union School District office at the address listed above no later than 4 p.m., Friday, June 3, 2022. No late applications will be accepted.

A dentistry that aims to be a home away from home

Jessica Cyphers Staff writer

or patients of Dale Stanec, Jr., DDS, going to the dentist feels a little like going home.

“We know all of our patients. They’re our friends,” said Dr. Stanec, who works alongside his wife and office manager, Elena, in his Cameron Park office. “The experience in our office is very personal. We’re very small and greet each patient by name when they walk in. It’s a comfortable, homey place to have dental work done, and we like it that way.” Dr. Stanec has been in dentistry in the Cameron Park area since 2002. As a kid, he was “always into science and math” and loved the idea of owning his own business. “I ran a lawn-mowing business as a kid — always had some kind of business going — so becoming a dentist and owning my own practice just made sense,” said Dr. Stanec. Dr. Stanec did his undergraduate work at Cal Poly,

San Luis Obispo and then attended dental school at Northwestern University in Chicago. He graduated from Northwestern in 2001 and says that, although he was born and raised in San Jose, it was a natural draw to open his practice in the foothills. “Elena and I love this area. We had a lot of family and friends here and thought it would be a great place to raise our kids.”

In his office, Dr. Stanec offers a full scope of general and cosmetic dentistry with expertise ranging from porcelain veneers and dental implants to crowns and bridges and more. Unlike many other dentists, Dr. Stanec doesn’t employ dental hygienists or other technicians but does all of his dental work himself. “I spend a lot of one-on-one time with my patients. It’s fun for me to do the work myself because I get to spend more time with my patients and hang out with them and really get to know them. It makes it fun to do what I do,” said Dr. Stanec.

Another advantage of keeping his practice small is that, because he sees every patient one at a time, Dr. Stanec can be very thorough and immediately answer any questions that come up. He is also able to really respect his patients’ time. “I am almost always early or on time,” said Dr. Stanec. “My patients know that, so they’re usually early or on time for their appointments, too. It’s a win win for everyone.” Dr. Stanec is located at 3955 Cameron Park Drive — in Cameron Park. His office is right near the Goldorado Shopping Center, directly across from the new Walgreens on Palmer Drive, and is very conveniently located for all of his patients. The move is just one more way Dr. Stanec shows his commitment to providing the best possible care for his patients.

“I look forward to going to work and getting to see who’s on the schedule every day,” said Dr. Stanec.

Dale III, Dr. Stanec, Luis, and Elena Stanec

“I love the work that I do and am proud to do really quality work. Originally I’d planned to be a little bigger, but then I realized I liked it this way. I really enjoy my patients and

this way I can get to know them well.” For more information or to schedule an appointment with Dr. Stanec, visit drstanec.com or call 530-676-6500.

Rotary celebrates educators Noel Stack Managing Editor

Sports Cards RoadShow at Sun City Lincoln Hills ™

he Rotary Club of El Dorado Hills honored excellent teachers at its May 25 meeting. Receiving Educator of the Year awards were: Jennifer Slinger, Oak Ridge High School; Jenny Ghio, Buckeye Union School District; and the Rescue Union Federation of Teachers. ORHS Principal Aaron Palm joked that those at the Wednesday breakfast meeting would be exhausted just hearing all the roles Slinger takes on. She serves as chair of the high school’s English Department and the school’s activities director and oversees the school’s yearbook. “She’s at more events than I am,” said Palm, who commended Slinger for earning the respect of her fellow teachers and building strong relationships with students. BUSD Superintendent Dr. David Roth called special education teacher Ghio “an excellent communicator” who excels in a complicated role. “She’s working every day for the students,” Roth said, adding that Ghio’s passion and determination make her a tireless advocate for what’s best for each student. RUSD Superintendent Jim Shoemake took a different approach, deciding to celebrate an entire group of educators. Calling the honor much more than a “participation trophy,” Shoemake noted how proud he is of his staff for showing such resiliency and excellent problemsolving skills during the challenges of the past two years.

oxygen at the root level to survive. Before planting your container garden, make sure that the container being used has adequate drainage. Plants should never be planted in any container that will not drain. Some decorative planters, cachepots, do not have drainage holes and should not be used for direct planting. Carefully inspect plants before adding them to your container. Healthy, young plants are the best choice to add to a container. Remember that plants and their roots will continue to grow over

time. Plants need adequate space to grow and thrive. If the planter is overcrowded, a number of plants might decline and die due to lack of adequate root space, water and nutrients. Larger, deeper containers allow roots to grow downward where they can find water and cooler temperatures during hot summer months. Do not over water container gardens or allow them to dry out completely. Periodically check containers for these conditions by sticking your finger into the container’s potting soil. If the soil

is damp, then there is no immediate need to water the planting. Adding about 1 inch of fine bark to the top of the container will help to keep the soil moist during hot, dry summers in El Dorado County. Checking to make sure the container is draining adequately is also advisable. Sometimes small pebbles and other debris will accumulate at the bottom of the container and block excess water from draining. If water pools for too long at the top of the planter, then the planter is not adequately draining. To alleviate this condition, gently place the planter on its side and place a stick or other blunt object into the drainage hole and gently move the debris preventing the water from draining. Remember that some plants, especially vegetables such as tomatoes, zucchini, and green beans, will need to be staked or trellised. Flowering plants such as dahlias also need to be staked when they are blooming. At times, the roots of shrubs and perennials will fill the pot and become “root bound.” Dwarf lemon and lime trees, as well as azaleas, are but a few of the plants that produce a large volume of roots when grown in a container. Signs of root bound plants include roots growing out of the drainage hole or small roots appearing on the surface of the soil. Adequate root space is needed for the plant to thrive. If a root bound plant is not moved to a larger container, the plant will die because there is not enough oxygen at the root level. When repotting a root bound plant, it is best to move the plant into a container that is only 2 to 4 inches larger than the current container. Container gardens have specific needs regarding water and fertilizer. Water tends to evaporate more quickly in container plantings than with inground plantings. Clay and wooden

planters are porous and will lose water more quickly than plastic or glazed ceramic planters. During times of extreme heat in our area, containers may need to be watered daily or even twice a day (morning and early evening). Deep watering is preferable over drip irrigation because the water will get down to the roots. A well-balanced granular fertilizer and light organic compost should be added to the potting mixture at time of planting. Given the limited soil volume and porosity of potting soil, container plantings tend to lose nutrients at a greater rate than in-ground plantings. Adding a watersoluble fertilizer every seven to 14 days is recommended to keep plants thriving during the growing season. Container gardening is a great way to outsmart subterranean pests such as gophers and moles, but fencing is needed to deter hungry deer and squirrels from munching on your beautiful container garden.

FINANCIAL FOCUS Financial Focus: What investors can — and can’t — control

s an investor, you can easily feel frustrated to see short-term drops in your investment statements. But while you cannot control the market, you may find it helpful to review the factors you Financial columnist can control. Many forces affect the financial markets, including geopolitical events, corporate profits and interest rate movements — forces beyond the control of most individual investors. In any case, it’s important to focus on the things you can control, such as these: Your ability to define your goals: One area in which you have total control is your ability to define your goals. Like most people, you probably have short-term goals such as saving for a new car or a dream vacation and long-term ones such as a comfortable retirement. Once you identify your goals and estimate how much they will cost, you can create an investment strategy to help achieve them. Over time, some of your personal circumstances will likely change so you’ll want to review your time horizon and risk tolerance on a regular basis, adjusting your strategy when appropriate. And the same is true for your goals; they may evolve over time, requiring new responses from you in how you invest. Your response to market downturns: When the market drops and the value of your investments declines, you might be tempted to take immediate

action in an effort to stop the losses. This is understandable. After all, your investment results can have a big impact on your future. However, acting hastily could work against you. For example, you could sell investments that still have solid fundamentals and are still appropriate for your needs. If you can avoid decisions based on short-term events, you may help yourself in the long run. Your commitment to investing: The financial markets are almost always in flux and their movements are hard to predict. If you can continue investing in all markets — good, bad or sideways — you will likely make much better progress toward your goals than if you periodically were to take a “time out.” Many people head to the investment sidelines when the market tumbles, only to miss out on the beginnings of the next rally. And by steadily investing, you will increase the number of shares you own in your investments — and the larger your ownership stake, the greater your opportunities for building wealth. Your portfolio’s level of diversification: While diversification itself can’t guarantee profits or protect against all losses, it can help greatly reduce the impact of market volatility on your portfolio. Just how you diversify your investments depends on several factors, but the general principle of maintaining a diversified portfolio should govern your approach to investing. It’s a good idea to periodically review your portfolio to ensure it’s still properly diversified. The world will always be filled with unpredictable, uncontrollable events and many of them will affect the financial markets to one degree or another. But within your own investment world, you always have a great deal of control — and with it, you have the power to keep moving toward all your important financial objectives.
