Newsom budget boosts DJUSD

Council vote guides Rescue Plan funds

By Edward Booth

Rivera’s mosaic mural honoring the Peña family stands on the site of the humble cottage where Narcissa Peña (1918-2008) lived for the entirety of her 89 years. (The mural is just across the street from the main entrance to Davis Community Church, on the southwest corner of Fourth and D streets in Davis). Narcissa Peña was one of the very first female students to attend what is now UC Davis, earning a degree in home economics in 1939. She was hired as a secretary at UC Davis and worked there for three decades. She also

Funding transformational projects and recovering from COVID-related revenue losses are among the principles that will guide how the city of Davis utilizes its windfall of American Rescue Plan funds. The city is expecting to receive $19,730,600 in ARP funds, with the first half available now and the remaining funds in the spring of 2022. Additionally, the city will receive another $1.37 million in separate ARP funds allocated for the provision of affordable housing and related costs. The American Rescue Plan was enacted in March and included $350 billion in support for local governments. In addition to the $19.7 million that Davis will receive, Yolo County is expecting to receive $42.7 million. The Yolo County Board of Supervisors previously passed a set of guiding principles for how to spend that money, with collaborating with cities being a key one. Likewise, the set of guiding principles

Enterprise staff writer The Davis school board received a presentation on the district’s budget May 20, in light of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s May budget proposal earlier this month. Amari Watkins, associate superintendent of business services, said at the meeting that district staff and board trustees attended a state budget workshop on May 20 that informed them of the impacts associated with Newsom’s proposed fiscal year 2021-2022 budget. The legislature is set to review and recommend changes to the state budget throughout June, and the school board is also set to discuss and approve the district budget next month. Watkins said that the governor’s proposed budget would result in the district gaining an estimated $800,000 more in revenues than projected in March. But, she said, the district will still need to continue monitoring the impacts of declining enrollment, any future deficit spending and ensuring that it maintains a minimum

Mark Rivera’s big carrot outside the Davis Food Co-op is well-known in the community.

Artist Rivera, whose handiwork delighted residents, dies unexpectedly By Jeff Hudson Enterprise correspondent If you’ve walked the streets of Downtown Davis, you’ve seen artist Mark Rivera’s work. There’s the enormous, oversized orange carrot (a local landmark as tall as some small trees) that stands as a sentinel by the sidewalk in front of the Davis Food Co-op on G St. And there’s the streetside mural honoring the multigenerational legacy of the Peña family — a Latino clan who were recipients of a huge land grant covering large portions of land in what is now Yolo County and Solano County back in the 1840s (when California was a province of Mexico).

Bear killed by vehicle at I-80 intersection By Owen Yancher Enterprise staff writer A bear spotted Tuesday morning in the south area of the UC Davis campus has been struck and killed by a vehicle, university officials said. At 6:09 a.m., a WarnMe alert informed campus users that a roughly 200pound bear had been seen in the area of the arboretum, near La Rue Road and the southeast area of campus. A citizen first saw the animal around 5:42 a.m. and called 911. Less than an hour later, at about 7 a.m., the bear was fatally struck by a car

VOL. 124 NO. 222

at the junction of Interstate 80 and Highway 113, UCD Associate Director of News and Media Relations Andy Fell said. Wednesday’s bear sighting comes nearly two years after a similar situation occurred in Davis. In June 2019, a young bear — estimated to weigh between 80 and 100 pounds — made its way to a grassy area near the Hyatt Place Hotel. Wildlife agents formed a perimeter around a tree the bear had climbed and waited for the bear to come down before shooting it with a tranquilizer dart, Fish and Wildlife

scientist Josh Bush told media outlets. After the bear was tranquilized, it ran up another tree and then fell about 30 feet when the tranquilizer kicked in. That bear was later released outside Yolo County. In April 2020, another small bear sought sanctuary in the West Davis Pond area. The animal — nicknamed “Gilligan” because of his islanddwelling life in the pond — sheltered in the space for several days before also being struck and killed by a vehicle along Highway 113 north of Davis.

think it must be the pandemic, but for some reason, I’ve been receiving much more mail than usual — much of it hostile. Time for some answers. Writes Derrick in South Davis: “Bob — Some idiot — and I use the term deliberately — authorized the re-painting of the former Ace Housewares building, in the process obliterating two terrific public art pieces, one of which has always been my favorite.” Derrick — One of my daughters and I actually witnessed this revolting development as I gave her a ride to work just after sunrise on

hard as I could, but you came in 5 or 10 feet ahead of me. You offered me one of the coveted bags anyway. ‘No,’ I said. “You beat me. I don’t get one.’ And I didn’t take it.” Marilyn — I remember that incident well. Such an upright thing of you to do. I recently put that very bag on eBay and it fetched $1.6 million. I may owe you lunch. Writes Curt at comcast.net: “Bob — What is the source of your claim (that the Stormwater Fee increase) is certain to be challenged in court by a handful of Republicans?” Curt — My source is the guy I see in the mirror every morning when I’m brushing my teeth. I don’t have to have an outside source to express an opinion. A journalist writing a straight news story does indeed need sources when citing facts not yet in evidence. An opinion columnist, however, can just write whatever comes into his head without any sources at all. I think Pete Rose belongs in the Baseball Hall of Fame. I don’t need a source for that opinion. I think Zion is the most beautiful national park in America. I don’t need a source for that opinion either. In our divided world, if Democrats propose doubling the Stormwater Fee, Marjorie Taylor Greene will come along and compare the increase to the Holocaust, and Republicans in lockstep will vote against it. That’s just the way things are these days. — Reach Bob Dunning at bdunning@davisenterprise.net

We are all depending on you.” Michelle — Herb Caen was the gold standard for all columnists. Rest assured, I am now eating foods laden with preservatives to protect every bone in my body. I plan to stick around. Having just celebrated my first half-century of typing for a living, I am now embarking on the second half-century.

ARTIST: Career a mosaic of vibrant public art in Davis

From Page A1

served for many years as the beloved “house mother” affiliated with an adjacent male fraternity. Rivera was commissioned to a mural honoring the Peña family, and he approached the task with particular reverence. One of the eight people who commissioned Rivera to create that mural is gayle yamada (she prefers all lowercase), a longtime Davis resident who is a documentary filmmaker, and a television producer who was associated for years with the long-running public TV series “Yan Can Cook.”

“Mark was thoughtful in his approach to our mosaic mural (about the Peña family),” yamada said. “He listened to what we said about what we wanted, then created something lively and appealing that was beyond what we had ever imagined.” Rivera’s mural even includes a depiction of the comfy chair Narcissa Peña kept on her porch, chained in place “so that no one would steal it,” she said. Rivera also worked in depictions of the cattle brands that the Peña family used to mark their livestock. “Mark spent hours and

hours with us to get the story of the Peña family right. He was always gentle and courteous and really listened to us. We felt enriched just having known him. We were all stunned by his death,” yamada said. “His legacy is his public art that we see every day.” Also grieving is ceramic artist Heidi Bekebrede, who earned a degree in studio art from UC Davis in 198o, studying under now-legendary faculty luminaries like Robert Arneson and Wayne Thiebaud, among others. Bekebrede and Rivera collaborated on numerous art projects at schools all over Davis — they had been planning on doing an installation together at Pioneer Elementary this month. Rivera also helped Bekebrede with the “Davis Song” mural in Central Park, among other projects. “Mark has at least 10 pieces” in the downtown Davis area that are outdoor public art, Bekebrede said. “It was fun working with Mark,” Bekebrede said. “Working with Mark, I

SPENDING: Rescue Plan funds From Page A1 unanimously approved by the City Council on Tuesday includes maximizing opportunities to leverage funds through partnerships and avoiding duplication of other funding sources. A subcommittee comprised of Vice Mayor Lucas Frerichs and Councilman Will Arnold drew up the guiding principles and, now that they have their colleagues’ support, will return with a proposed spending plan for council consideration. The guiding principles are: 1. Use for one-time items (short-term pilots may also be considered) 2. Focus on recovery from COVID revenue losses and accelerating city fiscal re-stabilization as a priority so that the city can be in a stronger position to assist via projects and assistance to the community at large. 3. Have a nexus to the pandemic (revenue replacement, program/ project reinstatement, community support to aid in faster recovery, etc) 4. Maximize opportunities to leverage funds to make a larger impact (partner with other agencies, provide matching funds, etc.) 5. Avoid duplication of other available funding sources (grants, state funds, etc), unless current funds are not adequate to meet designated needs. 6. Consider transformational projects (projects/ undertakings that might not otherwise be possible, or that catalyze — such as investment in technology) 7. Prioritize projects with a clear link to City Council goals Additionally, Councilman Dan Carson requested that an eighth principle be

added — that the city will reserve some funding from the second tranche (expected next spring) for unexpected circumstances. “I would just suggest that it would be wise to reserve some funding allocations until next year in case we have to deal with the unexpected,” Carson explained. “Looking at drought, maybe more fires, you never know what this pandemic might do next, I would at this point make sure we leave some funding reserve open for us to make decisions about next year.” Carson suggested thinking about the ARP funds less as an emergency response and more as “how do we manage the next several years of the recovery?” “So it’s OK if every nickel…. doesn’t immediately go out the door,” he said. “On the other hand, I think it’s important… it is urgent that we start putting these dollars to work so we keep the momentum for recovery going, both in terms of our city government but also in terms of our local economy which is where our money comes from.” Mayor Gloria Partida said she was pleased with the proposed guiding principles, saying, “it’s really important to have this set of guiding principles to refer back to. “Especially when we begin to feel the tug of wanting to do things with this money from outside sources that are wanting to pull us in different directions, I think it’s important for us to have something that we can refer back to and say, ‘Does it meet these principles?’ And I think that will be really important.” Partida added that considering transformational projects and the recovery from COVID “are the two

top guiding principles that stand out to me that I think we should really focus on.” Community members who weighed in during public comment also had suggestions for how that money should be spent. “Re-imagining public safety is a transformational project,” said Morgan Poindexter, a member of the city’s Police Accountability Commission. She cited behavioral health needs exacerbated by the pandemic, saying, “that is mental health treatment, substance abuse treatment, other behavioral health services, hotlines, warm lines, crisis intervention and services or outreach to promote access to social services. “I really think that we could not be in a better situation… to use those funds.” Francesca Wright echoed Poindexter, saying “given that the mental health epidemic is so enlarged during the COVID period, that would be an important transformational project.” Meanwhile, Elaine Roberts Musser, a Utilities Commission member, urged caution. “I would hope the City Council would think long and hard how to expend these funds in a way that … makes the most sense; does the most good; and, first and foremost, addresses the damage wrought by COVID,” she said. “The city has one shot to get this right because these funds are not coming around again.”

State Highway Patrol to maximize Memorial Day traffic enforcement Special to The Enterprise Memorial Day is the traditional start to the summer travel season, and this weekend California’s roadways will likely be bustling with activity. To help ensure the safety of motorists throughout the holiday, the California Highway Patrol will conduct a Maximum Enforcement Period (MEP). The Memorial Day MEP runs from 6 p.m. Friday, May 28, to 11:59 p.m. Monday, May 31, focusing on the proper use of seat belts. During the MEP, all available CHP officers will be out enforcing traffic safety laws throughout the state. Officers will be watching carefully for distracted drivers and those who are impaired by drugs or alcohol. “Seat belts save

Senate approves Dodd’s bill on micro-grid community energy Special to The Enterprise SACRAMENTO — The Senate has overwhelmingly approved legislation from State Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa, to help California reduce its reliance on carbon-emitting generators during disaster-driven power outages by assisting the planning of micro-grids, with a priority on lowincome communities. “Power outages in recent years have cost California billions, and the emissions from backup generators pose a huge threat to our environment,” Dodd said. “My legislation will prioritize development of alternate power sources so everyone can keep their lights on — regardless of their income level or economic status.” Senate Bill 99, the Community Energy Resilience Act, calls for the creation of a technical assistance and grant program administered by the California Energy

Commission to help local governments develop clean energy resilience plans, leveraging the substantial related investments that have already been made by the CEC. SB 99 enables local governments to collaborate with utilities in planning community-scale energy infrastructure such as solar panels and battery storage so that communities — not distant big utilities — are deciding what facilities remain energized during a crisis. Plans are a prerequisite for attracting private and public investments in community energy resilience projects — particularly important as federal lawmakers contemplate a new trillion-dollar infrastructure package. The bill was approved late on May 24 by the full Senate and moves next to the Assembly. It comes as the state heads into another fire season, which is likely to mean more power shutoffs.

lives every day, yet some people still don’t buckle up,” CHP Commissioner Amanda Ray said. About 78 percent of people killed in a crash within CHP jurisdiction during the 2020 Memorial Day MEP were not wearing a seat belt. Statewide, at least 31 people died in a crash during the holiday weekend. In addition, CHP officers made 854 arrests for impaired driving during the 78-hour traffic safety campaign. Motorists also are reminded to protect child passengers through the proper use of car seats, booster seats and seat belts. The law requires that, whenever possible, children under 8 ride in the back seat and that a child under 2 is always secured in a rear-facing car seat. To reinforce the importance of seat belt usage, the CHP also is participating in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s ongoing “Click It or Ticket” campaign from May 17 to June 6.

Dodd’s proposal is backed by a coalition of environmental, community and industry advocates led by The Climate Center. Other partners include the California State Association of Counties, the Microgrid Resources Coalition and the California Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments. “As the warming climate increases the number of grid outages, whether due to wildfires or heat extremes, it is critical that California’s communities have the tools they need to maintain reliable electricity,” said Ellie Cohen, CEO of The Climate Center, the bill’s sponsor. “SB 99 supports communities in creating energy resilience plans that will safeguard their populations while generating clean electricity. With its strong focus on vulnerable communities, SB 99 charts a course toward a cleaner, more equitable, and more resilient energy future in California.”

State ignoring housing realities

We can stop F gun violence; let’s fund it By Mike McBride Special to CalMatters

I

n 2009, I was pained to bury a young student of mine named Larry Spencer. Like too many young Black and brown men in this country, his vibrant and promising life was cut short as a result of gun violence. At Larry’s funeral, I spoke to a room of more than 500 teenagers, and I asked them, “How many of you have been to more than one funeral?” Every hand went up. “More than two funerals?” Again, every hand was raised. By the time I got to 10, the congregation was weeping, half of them with their hands still in the air. In that moment, it became clear: whatever we’re doing, it’s not enough. Year after year, this country invests billions into a criminal justice system that disproportionately arrests and incarcerates Black and brown people, while consistently failing to deliver safety and protect the lives of young men like Larry. Prior to the pandemic, violence was the leading cause of death for young Black men and boys in California, the second leading cause of death for Black women, and more than 84% of youth gun homicide victims were Black or Latinx. Last year, the nation experienced the largest single-year increase in homicides on-record, and in California, fatal shootings increased by 46% over the course of the pandemic. This burden of rising violence continues to rest on communities of color, who were also disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 and its harmful effects on employment, housing and other social determinants of health to which many people of color have historically been barred access. California must do more to repair generations of divestment from communities of color and rescue Black and brown families from the worsening gun violence crisis in our state. Research shows that public health approaches like street outreach and hospital-based violence intervention can help build safer communities by increasing access to jobs and expanding mental health services needed to address trauma in California’s hardest-hit neighborhoods.

C

ommunity-centered programs in cities like Oakland, Richmond, Los Angeles, Sacramento, Stockton and more are credited with reducing homicides by 34% to 79%. These programs are effective, but the state significantly underinvests in these strategies. California has recognized the need to further invest in community-based solutions to violence by more than tripling the budget for California’s Violence Intervention and Prevention (CalVIP) grant program from $9 million to $30 million in 2019. Still, even at this elevated level, the state was unable to meet the need of eligible CalVIP applicants that requested more than $78 million in funding. Accounting for the historic 46% statewide increase in gun deaths last year, California would need to invest at least $114 million dollars to meet the needs of our most impacted communities. But that’s not what happened in 2020. After the pandemic hit, budgets tightened, and funding for CalVIP returned to its woefully inadequate $9 million level. In March of 2021, President Joe Biden signed The American Rescue Plan Act, a $1.9 trillion federal COVID-relief bill with hundreds of billions of dollars in flexible federal aid intended to help state and local governments recoup resources that were lost during the pandemic. The administration has already signaled that these funds should be directed broadly and funding community violence intervention should be a critical national priority. We must use our tax dollars in the state of California to prioritize healing and safety. The state can work toward this goal by leveraging COVID-relief funds to fully fund CalVIP at $114 million in this year’s budget. Budgets are moral documents, and where we choose to invest our tax dollars speaks volumes about who and what we value. I call on Gov. Gavin Newsom to fulfill his obligation to California’s most vulnerable residents and rescue California from the epidemic of gun violence exacerbated by the global pandemic. Black and brown communities are hurting, and we must meet the moment, not with rhetoric, but with action. Fund peace now. — Pastor Michael “Mike” McBride of San Francisco is a co-founder of Black Church PAC and the National Black Brown Gun Violence Prevention Consortium, pastormike@blackchurchpac.org. He wrote this for CalMatters, a public interest journalism venture committed to explaining how California’s Capitol works and why it matters.

rom Sacramento comes word that the median price for a single-family home in California skyrocketed by 24 percent over less than one year, topping $810,000 in May, a rise of almost 30 percent from the previous year. At the same time, one developer of “affordable” housing in Southern California revealed that the average cost of a twobedroom unit in a new fourstory, 48-unit building that will target low-income families, comes to $729,265. Much of that tab will be picked up by local taxpayers, and the building is pretty typical of so-called affordable housing all around California. Such buildings, the developer said, will likely “increase affordable housing opportunities for families who often have difficulty finding appropriately sized housing” in the region. Even if thousands of buildings like this one were constructed around the state over the next six years, they wouldn’t come close to solving California’s housing shortage, which some experts say is the main reason median prices keep rising steeply. Gov. Gavin Newsom plumped during his 2018 campaign for building 3 million new units by 2025, a total that won’t even be approached. Rather than focusing on ways to really resolve the state’s housing problem — and thereby deal

T

hat leaves building owners holding the bag. Many are real estate investment trusts whose shares are sold as investments to folks expecting regular dividend payments. The main way for them to recover their investments in office towers and other buildings will be to turn them at last partly into residences, as this column first suggested in April 2020, when the trend became obvious to anyone looking. The current office vacancies do not exist just in California. The New York Times the other day headlined a long-ish story on the officeconversion scene there “Eerie Emptiness in New York.” Quite a contrast to the many previous tales of overcrowded Manhattan. Once buildings are

converted either wholly or in part to residential units, much of the housing shortage will disappear. It’s a far cheaper and easier task than building billions of new square feet, often in places where existing residents don’t want them. That means fewer lawsuits, less disruption of established neighborhoods, more convenience for most residents. It also means fewer construction jobs, although there will still be plenty of work involved in drywall, carpentry, electricity and plumbing shifts, plus construction of new elevators. But the buildings’ profiles and footprints will not change, giving neighbors little to gripe about. The real question here is why legislators and local city council and county board members keep pushing more and more new construction, which is obsolete and hard to sell even before it’s built. The answer most likely lies in campaign donations from developers and building trade unions. So once again, it’s money interfering with inevitable progress and problemsolving. — Email Thomas Elias at tdelias@aol.com.

Support the stormwater fee If you’re like me and thousands of other property owners, you recently received a ballot in the mail, asking you to vote on a stormwater fee increase that will help protect Davis, El Macero and Willowbank when the next big storms hit us, as they inevitably will. I urge you to vote yes and return your ballot quickly. The city-run stormwater system is something we take for granted, like a lot of city services. It’s there if and when it’s needed, but most of the time it’s invisible. I think of it as an insurance policy. It may be hard to remember in a drought year, but it was just a few years ago when heavy storms caused flooding in parts of town. Even if your property is on high ground, you don’t want to see impassable water under the Richards tunnel that connects downtown to South Davis or flooding that might prevent you from getting to Sutter Davis Hospital. And a failure of a critical pump could mean water overflowing through parts of central Davis. The current system depends in part on antiquated pumps — one almost a century old — that are inadequate, unreliable and unsafe. The city has done a good job of keeping these old clunkers running. But it only takes one whopper of a storm and a pump failure to result in flooding and considerable property damage. We can solve the problem with a modest fee increase. A typical homeowner will pay an extra $7 a month — less than it costs me to subscribe to this newspaper. The funds, which can’t be used for other purposes, will replace the old pumps, widen a critical flood control channel along Covell Boulevard, and maintain the system’s drainage pipes, most of which are more than 50

simultaneously with the homeless crisis which now sees more than 160,000 individuals sleeping outdoors or in mass shelters every night, winter or summer — state and local officials persist in trying to build ever more expensive new structures. That’s happening, unreasonably, while the potential solution involving very little new construction stares these same local and state “experts” in the face. The answer is simple and will resolve problems for many disparate interests. It’s also inevitable, even if many state legislators and developer interests refuse to see it. That solution has been obvious since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic when thousands of businesses sent their whitecollar workers home to do their jobs at the same time the businesses themselves started campaigning to get out of long-term leases. Because many of those companies are delighted to let employees stay home post-pandemic, thus cutting their real estate costs, billions of square feet of former office space are now

vacant, most of it likely to stay that way for the foreseeable future. Law firms, stock brokerages, insurance companies, internet firms — essentially office-based businesses of all types — are dumping their leases, moving to smaller quarters and enjoying the fact their employees appear to be just as efficient away from the office. Polls indicate about twothirds of onetime office workers prefer to stay home, where they can set their schedules more independently and save money on both child care and commuting costs.

A night to remember and replicate The Enchanted Forest Senior Ball was held on Saturday, May 22, with over 435 DHS seniors attending! A team of more than 100 adult volunteers made up of parents and community members filled 118 volunteer shifts over the course of the event. This was the best of Davis coming together to support each other and our children. Many parents of seniors had tears of joy as we watched our kids enjoy a day of “normal.” The event was sponsored by PTA and not by DHS. I am grateful that DHS PTA understands the value of connections both in and outside of the classroom between students, teachers and parents. Our school culture is created by the structure of relationships and communication between the various groups invested in DHS. This is the second Senior Prom our

family has experienced at DHS, and I was impressed with the improvements the volunteer parent committee (Support Our Seniors) was able to implement in six short weeks. Compared to years past, tickets were more affordable ($25 cheaper), participation was easy (no requirement to organize prior and purchase a full table of 10) and transportation was safer with the six buses provided for anyone who wanted a ride instead of parents or students or the additional cost of a limo to drive to the event in Sacramento. I hope that DHS will remember this year’s improvements to equity, access and safety when organizing next year’s Senior Prom and that DHS will see the importance of continuing them for future proms. COVID times forced creative solutions to hold this event, and I give a huge thank you to the parents who volunteered countless hours planning and stepping up to give the seniors a fabulous event. They never gave up on giving our kids the opportunity to experience this special and memorable tradition. This was a dream come true for DHS Class of 2021 and I hope that my next child in the DHS Class of 2023 can also experience an equally fun, safe and inclusive event. Joy Klineberg Davis

Davis police make two drug arrests By Lauren Keene Enterprise staff writer Davis police arrested two Winters men on Wednesday suspected of trafficking methamphetamine into the city of Davis. Acting on a tip received in March, detectives from the Davis Police Department’s Community Oriented Policing and Problem Solving Unit (COPPS) and the Yolo and Solano County sheriff ’s offices served a search warrant at a rural property on Campos Lane outside the city of Winters, police said in a social media post. During the search, detectives seized 131 grams of methamphetamine and an all-terrain vehicle reported stolen out of Colusa, police said. (ATV) out of Colusa. David Martin, 61; and Thomas Johnson, 58; were booked into the Solano County Jail on charges of vehicle theft and possession of controlled substances with the intent to distribute. “Narcotics-related activities are directly tied to quality of life issues and criminal activity within the city of Davis and surrounding areas,” police said. “This warrant was issued pursuant to a lengthy investigation aimed at curbing narcotics trafficking and addressing community complaints related to a Davis apartment complex.”

friends and walk through the event together. “Davis Grad Night isn’t really putting this event on with funds or anything like that, we are kind of using our man power of committees we had already formed and also allowing the group to use some of our supplies which we use year after year,” said Tricia Bosco, Davis Grad Night board president. “It seemed like a way we could do something fun and meaningful for these kids to celebrate this year.” Davis Grad Night has occurred each year since 1985 — until COVID-19 shut down the event in 2020 — as an all-night celebration and graduation party at Emerson Junior High School. The event was originally developed in response to alcohol-related car accidents and deaths among those who had recently graduated from high school, according to the Davis Grad Night website. Typically, Emerson is transformed each year with a profusion of activities, professional lighting, raffle prizes, DJs, hypnotists, movie rooms, free food, decorations and more. The theme of the night changes each year and is a secret until students arrive.

required 3 percent general fund reserve in future years. Watkins added that the governor’s proposals to increase revenue through a cost of living adjustment (COLA) and one time grants go along with generally anticipated cost increases. These adjustments, including a roughly 5 percent mega COLA that applies to the majority of DJUSD revenues, potentially masks the actual impact of declining enrollment for the time being, she said. The cost of living adjustment in the state budget

FRIDAY, MAY 28, 2021 A5

last year was cut to 0 percent because of COVID-19. Because the state didn’t suffer financially as much as originally anticipated, Newsom proposed reinstating and temporarily increasing the COLA for the upcoming fiscal year to compensate for the lack in the current fiscal year. “The cost of living adjustment is applied every year traditionally,” Watkins said. “What happened to us in the current year is we got a zero COLA and so this budget is attempting to address and make whole the funding sources for the lack of a COLA in the current year.”

Putting on the event requires a considerable planning effort and the help of about 300 community volunteers. Joanne Brennan, a co-chair of the event this year, said she and the other organizers were hoping early in the school year that COVID-19 conditions would improve enough to be able to hold a Davis Grad night in 2021. But around January, when much of California was locked down because of COVID-19 conditions, the Davis Grad Night board met and decided it wasn’t responsible to try and plan for the event this year. There is some concern that the parent volunteering system of Grad Night has been disrupted by COVID-19, Bosco said, because a typical grad night hasn’t been held in two years. She said many parents that are still involved are hanging on because they want to be there to train the parents of students going through the high school system. “I think that almost every volunteer that is involved in it will tell you it is a great event, it’s well organized it’s fun, it feels good to do it, it’s exciting and the great thing about it is it’s so well organized that if you say ‘I can only work from home at my computer and have this many hours,’ we’ve got a job for you,” Brennan said. “If you say, ‘I love to have boots on the ground and I want to work for three solid days with a bunch of people, and I want to be really sweaty

and tired at the end but I want to feel like I did a good thing,’ we definitely have a job for you.” Brennan said her daughter Caroline, a graduating senior, came up with the initial idea for Senior Sunday. Caroline suggested the walk-through event, which can be adjusted to fit the COVID-19 conditions. Brennan added that the group got feedback from other students and learned that having some free food and prizes was key. “You’re not going to be able to sit at the carnival booth and play for 20 mins until you win a prize,” Brennan said. “But you’re going to be out there with people in person and there’s going to be the smell of food barbecuing and chances to win silly prizes and big prizes.” Bosco added that though Senior Sunday won’t be the same as Davis Grad Night, it will still serve as another way to mark the achievement of graduation after a tough pandemic year. “You dream about your senior year all of your grades of being a student, and I think it’s easy for any adult to look back on senior year and remember what that felt like and how important it was to you,” Bosco said. “We have to remember that celebrating things is important. Celebrations are kind of how we mark time over milestones.” — Reach Edward Booth at edward@davisenterprise.com or on Twitter at

DJUSD also doesn’t qualify for some equity investments built into the budget, Watkins said, because the district doesn’t carry a sufficient percentage of high-need students. That includes some funding for summer and after school programs. Additionally, the governor’s proposal includes health and safety grants for in-person instruction, investments to implement universal transitional kindergarten in future years, investments in broadband expansion, child care reimbursement rates and child nutrition program funding, among others, Watkins said. Trustee Lea Darrah said she hopes the community

understands the district is getting the money it needs right now, but needs to start planning for when the situation changes in upcoming years. Darrah also said it’s important to recognize that this is a proposed budget, and that it will be changed by the legislature by the time it’s eventually approved. “It’s a positive budget, it could be much worse, but again this is still the proposed budget,” Darrah said. “Our governor’s facing a lot of different criticisms so he’s signaling to all his partners that this is what he’d like to spend money on, but he doesn’t have the final say.”

Easily forgotten road trip safety tips Special to the Enterprise Davis getaways come in many forms. A getaway can be restful and relaxing whether it involves a journey to a small island thousands of miles from home or a favorite campsite that’s just a few hours away by car. As the world gradually emerges from a pandemic that put travel on the back burner for billions of people across the globe, people anxious to get away from home may finally feel comfortable seeking getaways that don’t involve air travel. If the open road beckons you in the months ahead, the excitement ahead can make it easy to overlook certain safety measures. The following are four easily forgotten safety measures to keep in mind as you head off for parts unknown. 1. Have your vehicle serviced before hitting the road. The pandemic significantly affected people’s driving habits. Millions of people spent the pandemic working remotely, and many have continued to do so even after being vaccinated. Total driving distances fluctuated throughout the pandemic. For example, the Federal Highway Administration reported that the total distances driven in July 2020 had declined by 11 percent compared to the same month a year earlier. That decline was more drastic according to figures examining total distances driven in April 2019 and April 2020,

when driving had decreased by 40 percent compared to a year earlier. Though driving may have increased as the pandemic wore on, it’s still a good idea for drivers to have their vehicles serviced before a road trip. Request a full tune-up that includes an oil change, a battery check and a tire rotation. These services and other maintenance tasks like fluid refills can reduce the likelihood of breakdowns and reveal any issues that might make driving less safe. 2. Determine if your vehicle is the subject of a recall. Recalls are issued if a safety issue has been uncovered since a car hit the market. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has a list of recalls available on its website at NHTSA. gov/Recalls. Recalls are fixed free of charge, and it’s best to look well in advance of a trip to ensure you have time to take the vehicle in for its update. 3. Get used to driving with accessories on the vehicle. Summer road trips are typically taken with bicycle racks attached to rear windows or the top of the vehicle. Drivers unaccustomed to having bicycles or storage units attached to their vehicles should make a few trial runs so they can get acclimated. Backing up with bike racks on the back of the car can be tricky for novices, so a little practice with the bikes on the back may be helpful. Drivers who intend to tow campers also may

Tips to stay safe include packing a good old-fashioned map. benefit from a little pre-trip practice. 4. Pack a map. Though maps have long since fallen out of favor due to the availability of GPS, people traveling to remote areas may find their smartphone signals fading in and out as they get closer to their destinations. A map can help road trippers overcome service interruptions and arrive at their destinations on time. Road trips may be especially popular this summer. Some simple safety measures can ensure drivers and their passengers stay safe.

How to travel safely with pets Special to the Enterprise Pets are beloved members of many families. In the U.S alone, about 85 million families own a pet. According to the American Pet Products Association, many of us also drive with our furry friends, from quick trips to the veterinarian’s office to longer road trip adventures. A recent national survey by Erie Insurance found that more than half of its respondents plan to take at least one road trip this year and 4% plan on traveling with pets. However, traveling with an animal can be dangerous if appropriate safety measures are not taken. Celebrated in May, this National Pet Month is a good time to brush up on a few safety precautions: Canine travel tips: 1. Restrain your pet. A proper restraint will protect your dog if an accident should occur. The Center for Pet Safety recommends using a quality crash-tested harness to keep your dog safe. 2. Rein in your pooch. Allowing your dog to stick their head out the window is more dangerous than it seems. It can cause road

debris to get into their eyes, nose and mouth and potentially lead to serious injuries. 3. Minimize distractions. Erie Insurance found in its recent national survey that 5% of respondents are distracted by their dog when driving. To avoid disruptions, keep them in the back seat and never allow your dog to sit on your lap. Use a barrier to avoid a dog making its way to the front, and avoid feeding and playing with your dog while driving. Feline travel tips: 1. Use a proper carrier. Cats become easily stressed when traveling. To keep them safe and comfortable, you’ll want to place them in a sturdy carrier that provides enough room for them to move around. 2. Practice safe exits. Only let your cat out of the carrier when parked. Make sure your cat is wearing a harness and leash before exiting the vehicle. Should your cat get startled and run, a harness and leash will allow you to rein them in, keeping them out of harm’s way. General travel tips: 1. Never leave a pet in a hot car. Leaving any kind of pet alone in a vehicle is extremely dangerous.

According to the Humane Society of the Unites States, a vehicle’s temperature can quickly exceed 120 degrees in warm weather, leaving your pet at risk of brain damage, heat stroke and suffocation. 2. Be prepared in case of emergency. Should anything go wrong, plan to contact a nearby vet. Even when taking appropriate precautions, accidents still happen. An auto insurance policy can protect you financially and provide peace of mind. Some companies, including Erie Insurance, offer coverage to help with vet treatment costs if your pet is hurt in a car accident. “We recognize that pets are a valued part of many families,” said Jon Bloom, vice president of personal auto at Erie Insurance. “This is why we believe it’s so important to include pet coverage in our auto policy.” To protect your beloved companions and your vehicle, talk to an insurance agent or visit ErieInsurance.com. This National Pet Month, be sure you have all the know-how needed to comfortably and safely take any length car trip with your pet.

Shakespearean classic inspires comedy Special to The Enterprise

“R

omeo and Juliet” is reinvented as a musical comedy when the UC Davis department of theater and dance, Southern Utah University’s department of theater, dance and arts administration and Catalyst: A Theatre Think Tank premiere “Juliet and Romeo.” Co-written by Paul Gordon, a Tony Award nominee for “Jane Eyre,” and Curtis Moore, an Emmy Award nominee for “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” the production will be accessible virtually at 6 p.m. Thursday, June 3, through midnight on Saturday, June 5. “Developing ‘Juliet and Romeo’ is the perfect marriage of creativity and research expected of a leading university like UC Davis,” said Mindy Cooper, a Broadway veteran and UC Davis

In a Renaissance Verona landscape, Juliet (Nicole Richter) confronts Bloom (Zane Brady) in the new musical comedy “Juliet and Romeo.” professor of theater and dance. “World Class writers in residence with our student talent, moving a brandnew story forward, with expertise and passion.” A comedic spin on William Shakespeare’s

romantic tragedy, “Juliet and Romeo” centers on a second-rate contemporary author who finds himself transported to the city of Verona in Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet,” where he attempts to change the Bard’s original ending.

“Juliet and Romeo” is co-directed by UCD alumna (M.F.A., performance studies, ’18) and Cooper and Lisa Quoresimo, assistant professor of theater and dance at SUU. Gordon and Moore are the spring 2021 UCD Granada

Artists-in-Residence. “It’s been a great pleasure to collaborate with the students on a musical in its early stages of development,” said Gordon. “Rehearsing with the cast offers us the opportunity to see the material through their eyes. Each stage of development is crucial and this is a unique chance to create a piece of art with students that are both willing to learn and teach us something new in the process.” Through the use of video and audio equipment, each student had to create their own individual rehearsal space in their residence. The cast of actors from both universities rehearsed virtually in different time zones. To create the contemporary world and Renaissance Verona, designer Martha Clarke, costume director at Sonoma State University, sourced garments from UC Davis,

SUU and Sonoma State costume shops, which had to be shipped, along with props, to all cast members. All of the musical’s virtual backgrounds have been created by projection designer Ian Wallace, lecturer in theatre and dance at UC Davis. “Juliet and Romeo” contains adult themes and language. The performance is free and open to all. Access is available for 54 hours beginning at 6 p.m. Thursday, June 3 on the Robert and Margrit Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts website. The production will be featured as part of the Mondavi Center’s HomeStage series with promotional support from the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art.

YoloArts presents ‘The Hot and Cold of It’ Special to The Enterprise

Actors Anthony Person and Cyprus Van Inwegen rehearse “Love in Times of Plague” for Theatre on the Block.

Bike City brings back live theater Special to The Enterprise Bike City Theatre Company is bringing back live theater to Davis with its new project: Theatre on the Block. Company members are arriving at cul-desacs (and some dead ends) throughout Davis to set up and perform “Love in Times of Plague” by local playwright Nicholas Walker Herbert. The show is free to the public from the support of the city of Davis Arts and Culture Fund and Healthy Davis Together, but donations are welcome. Performances have started and will continue on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays until Sunday, June 20. Distanced seating areas will be set up and masks will be required when coming and going from seating. Unlike a pre-2020 performance, locations are not publicly broadcasted beforehand. Audiences are kept intentionally small by only notifying those who

live in the individual culde-sacs, having been alerted by BCTC’s team of door-hanger distributors in the days prior. In an ironic plea for a theatrical performance, the company emphasizes on its website: “We’re relying on you to help keep us all safe; keep it quiet if you know TOTB is coming to you!” Theater on the Block is inspired by the staging of medieval cycle plays and the comic acting style of commedia dell’arte to bring the people of Davis a series of modern comic vignettes on the travails of pandemic life. Using a cargo van, two actors, some props and some costumes, “BCTC brings live theater — and a little music — to your neighborhood all while practicing safe social distancing,” the website says. Visit www.bikecity theatre.org for more details and keep an eye on the Facebook page and Instagram at @bikecitytheatre.

“The Hot and Cold of It,” a solo exhibition, will feature the mixed media artwork of Linda Nunes. The show opens Friday, June 4, at YoloArts’ Gallery 625 in Woodland. Nunes, a mixed media artist from the Bay Area, resides in the Sacramento area. She holds a studio arts degree from Sacramento State. Nunes has exhibited paintings, sculptures and large permanent and temporary installations locally and in the Bay Area, including several large commissioned pieces for restaurants and other commercial spaces. Her work is part of numerous private collections throughout California and the U.S. She serves on the board and curates for Sierra Wax Artists, a Sacramento region chapter of International Encaustic Artists. Nunes is a cofounder of Rancho Cordova Arts.

“After more than 14 months, we are excited to be resuming First Friday show openings and receptions. I hope everyone will come out to meet Linda and see this exhibition of her luminous and soulful works,” said Janice Purnell, YoloArts creative director. Nunes’ work is mostly non-narrative, primarily two-dimensional and characterized by gestural marks, texture and color. She most often creates in the unique and ancient media of encaustic, combining pigment with bee’s wax and resin, or cold wax and oil. A finished piece may include a dozen or more other media. “Viewing my work placed along a gallery wall is a tour through shapes, marks, lines and color that carry symbolic and private meanings. I expect the viewer will translate these into something personal as well. Digging and scratching into a surface or adding

Below, “The Drink,” an oil-and-mixed-media piece by Nunes, will be among her artwork featured in her solo exhibition “The Hot and Cold of It.” layers of paint are my own method of either healing, understanding my world or dealing with current issues,” Nunes said in her artist statement for the show. “My desire is that these paintings offer an invitation for the observer to linger, to consider what is beneath, covered or peeking through these layers of tactile and complex surfaces of hot or cold bee’s wax media.” The artist will be attending the opening reception, set from 5:30 to 8 p.m. Friday, June 4, coinciding with the downtown Woodland First Friday event. Music will be performed by solo guitarist Jon Spivack. Audiences can view the exhibition virtually at yoloarts.org, and at noon Monday, June 21. Nunes will be giving a talk about her work along with a short encaustic wax painting demonstration, available for viewing on Facebook and Instagram @YoloartsCA.

Refreshments will be available outdoors in the courtyard at the entrance to the gallery. Following recommendations and guidelines from the California Department of Public Health, Gallery 625 will limit the number of indoor guests to 50% of capacity. To ensure a safe and healthy visit, masks will be required for all guests over the age of 2, including those who are fully or partially vaccinated. “The Hot and Cold of It” continues at Gallery 625 through Aug. 3. Gallery 625 hosts exhibitions and receptions every other month. New exhibitions typically open on the first Fridays of February, April, June, August, October and December. Gallery 625 is at 625 Court St. in Woodland, in Yolo County’s Erwin Meier Administration building, and is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays and by appointment.

Sign on the dotted line

Davis High athletic director Jeff Lorenson lauds the work of the nearly 30 Blue Devil studentathletes that inked collegiate intent letters Wednesday afternoon on the DHS quad.

DHS student-athletes inked their letters of intent on Wednesday By Owen Yancher Enterprise sports editor Gathered in the Davis High quad Wednesday afternoon, 20-some Blue Devil athletes were on hand for the schools’ College Signing Day event. During a stretch of their lives where little has been ordinary, the annual gathering was a break from the craziness of spring competitions, in which 27 different DHS sports seasons have occurred simultaneously. “I can’t say enough about these students and the incredible sacrifices they’ve made over the past several years,” DHS Athletic Director Jeff Lorenson said. “Their accomplishments speak for themselves and they’ve been incredible stewards of the Blue Devil athletics program.” “We have such an excellent group of coaches and parents in Davis that understand this is all about so much more than winning,” Lorenson added. “These kids moving on … they’re all byproducts of the great things this community has offered to students for such a long time.” The soon-to-be next-level Devils lined the quad to ink their collegiate intent letters and were

recognized in front of family members and peers. While a handful of athletes are still yet to make a final college choice, here’s a list of the 22 students that were recognized Wednesday: n Genevieve Aubert (Cal) — The daughter of John Aubert and a standout rower for the Sacramento-based Capital Crew squad during the past several years, Aubert is headed down I-80. In October 2019, she competed in the Head of the Charles race in Boston, the world’s largest twoday rowing event. She’ll join the Golden Bears’ women’s crew team next year and be mentored by fivetime National Coach of the Year Al Acosta. n Summer Baron (Chico State) — The daughter of Cristie and John Baron, Summer will compete on the Wildcats’ women’s soccer team. During her DHS career, she’s been named to the All-Area Girls Team and the Blue Devils’ Most Improved Player. Baron has been a member of multiple league and section championship teams. n Natalie Bercutt (Wisconsin) — The daughter of Jen and Larry Bercutt, Natalie will travel to America’s Dairyland to compete on the Badgers’ women’s

swimming team. A CIF State champion and state record holder in the 200 medley relay (2018), Bercutt has received All-Delta League honors in each of her four years on the DHS swim team, is a three-time Sac-Joaquin Section champion and section record holder. The standout breaststroker was also named a NISCA AllAmerican. n Zachary Brooks (Whitworth) — The son of Jeremy and Kelly Brooks, Zach will attend play on the Pirates’ football team in Spokane. A two-time All-Delta League selection, conference Defensive MVP and MaxPreps All-Section team honoree, Brooks played linebacker, guard, running back and special teams for the Devils. He’s also a three-time Masters qualifier and two-time State qualifier honors in the sport of wrestling. n Luke Carrell (UC Davis) — The son of Scott and Susie Carrell, Luke will stay in town next school year, as a member of the UCD baseball team. While receiving

All-Conference honors in both football and baseball, he was also included as a 2020 National Football Foundation & College Hall of Fame Scholar Athlete selection and chosen as the CBS Sacramento Athlete of the Month. The southpaw has pitched 51.1 innings this year, sporting a 1.77 ERA along with 50 strikeouts. n Joshua Davis (UC Davis) — An assist machine for the DHS boys water polo team, the son of Zulima and Michael Davis, will join the Aggie polo ranks. Selected as the Devils’ co-MVP, Davis is a three-time first-team All-Sac-Joaquin Section honoree and three-time All-Delta League selection. n Trey Doten (UCLA) — The son of Steve and Lisa Doten, Trey will head south to play for the Bruins’ men’s water polo team. The Blue Devil captain has been selected three times to the All-Delta League first-team, twice to the All-Section firstteam and as a second-team AllAmerican and Youth Futures

DHS cagers top ’Cats By Will Wyman Enterprise staff writer The Davis High boys basketball squad defeated Franklin, 62-57, on Senior Night in front of a crowd of parents and fans alike. The atmosphere was something that had been missing from sports events throughout the restart. Recently, Davis has been allowing more and more fans to enter games, leading to the special atmosphere at the Devils’ final home contest of the season. Head coach Dan Gonzalez was overjoyed about not only the pregame ceremonies, but also to have been able to play at all. “Special. It’s special for our seniors,” beamed Gonzalez. “This has been a tough year-and-ahalf for our school and our sports programs. I feel for teams like baseball who really had to miss two seasons. “It’s what makes Davis special. My (team’s) parents wanted to put this together, wanted to honor seniors and if I don’t get their support, then it probably doesn’t happen. Having Will Arnold show up to announce, that’s just special to me. I was his seventh-grade math teacher. It’s just a good place to be.” Davis senior Alan Favela shared his coach’s sentiment: “(I’m) thankful that we got to get out here,” the Oregon State-bound guard told The Enterprise. “I didn’t think there was going to be this many people out here, so it’s been nice seeing everyone out here supporting our seniors, including myself. Shout out to my guy Darius who came out to see me. The seniors this year have been a great team to be around, great group of people. I think I’ve enjoyed this year more than any other.” Both the Devils and the visiting Wildcats

started the game off slow, combining for a mere 29 points after the first frame. But the scoring made an appearance in the second quarter as Davis battled to take the lead. Isaiah Conlan catalyzed the effort, knocking down back to back threes to lift the home team’s offense. Shots from Favela and fellow senior Nick Zablotsky gave Davis a four-point lead going into the break. Davis opened up the lead to 12 halfway through the third quarter, but the Wildcats came clawing back in the fourth. Franklin came within two points of the Devil lead, but three’s from Conlan and Jackson Isidor silenced the visitors for good. “I’ve got some guys here that I’ve got all the faith in the world in,” Favela said. “Even if it gets to one or two, we’re gonna hit some clutch shots. Isaiah hit a big one, Jackson hit a big one and the way Colin (Walsh) controls the floor. I’m just always comfortable with it. You can get nervous if you dwell on the score, but I dwell more on the guys I have and the work they put in.” Conlan led the Devil offense with 19 points, with Walsh right behind him with 16. The win adds to Davis’ 5-2 record overall and 3-1 record in Delta League play. The Blue Devils finish out the season on the road, facing Jesuit June 1 and Elk Grove June 3. “This season was unexpected, we didn’t think we were gonna be able to play this year,” concluded Favela. “So even if it’s eight games, 10 games, five games, we’re lucky to get out here in front of all these people. I’m really thankful that with everything that’s been going on this year, I was able to get one last season in.” The program honored six seniors as part of the pregame festivities. Clark Chen will be

Three Davis High netters finished with 12 or more kills Wednesday as the girls volleyball team completed a five-set comeback win against Franklin, on the road (23-25, 25-20, 25-20, 16-25, 15-12). Kate Nelson recorded 13 smackdowns, while Lena Sundin and Emma Thompson finished with 12 apiece. Senior servers Emily Wells and Grace Heringer added four aces each as DHS improved to 5-1 overall. Thompson added a team-high 12 digs in the victory, with Heringer chalking up eight and both Sundin and Olivia Kim rounding out the effort with seven.

By Owen Yancher Enterprise sports editor It was a tough afternoon for visiting McClatchy High on Wednesday at Arroyo Pool. The Lions were drubbed 23-4 in boys water polo action before suffering a 26-0 muting at the hands of the Lady Devils. The matches served as the season finalé for the Davis High girls and penultimate contest at home for the Davis boys, who host Jesuit on Friday evening.

The Davis boys lost in straight sets to Franklin on Wednesday night (25-21, 25-19, 25-20). The Devils were led by Owen Buzbee on defense with 14 digs, while Rowan Keller fueled

Alex Cordone kickstarted the 19-goal Devil shellacking, slamming home his first of two bullseyes just 9 seconds after the starting sprint. Trey Doten, who finished the game with a pair of goals, converted less than a minute later as DHS jumped ahead 7-2 after the opening frame. The Devils poured on another eight scoring strikes in the second period with Ryan Mayeur (three goals) responsible for the bulk of the local artillery showcase. Asher Reising added two goals, along with JT Doughty, while Ryan Pfeifer and Brennan Fuchslin finished with hat tricks. Bo Brown (goal), Alejandro Johnson and Ben Rayls each tallied a pair of steals and goalie Ben Simon made six saves as the Devil D held McClatchy to just a single second-half score. “We’re a little bummed,” DHS head coach Tracy Stapleton said. “Just like everyone else, we don’t have the opportunity to have playoffs this spring. And we think we could’ve made a great postseason run.” What the Devils have, instead, is a three-match tilt penciled in against Jesuit to end the season. “The scheduling of those goes back to the early COVID rules set by the CIF that only allowed for teams to play schools in neighboring counties,” Stapleton explained. “So we decided to set

Brett Wiebe will join Favela (business and marketing) at Oregon State, focusing on accounting, and Zablotsky is headed to San Diego State as a kinesiology major.

Klineberg’s score came with less than 3 remaining in what was Davis’ final match of the spring. “Our goalie, Mason Johnstone must’ve had a million saves,” Devil head coach Nick Juri said after the win. “He was huge for us.”

For the second-straight match, Lindsay Taylor topped the stat sheet with her team-leading five netbenders.

‘Dream Horse’: A crowd-pleasing winner Real-life saga gallops into our hearts By Derrick Bang Enterprise film critic Nothing beats the triumphant emotional rush of a well-crafted underdog story. Except, perhaps, an under-horse story. Particularly one based quite closely on actual events. Welsh director Euros Lyn’s “Dream Horse” is the feel-good film of spring: a timely reminder of the amazing things that can be accomplished when people unite for a common cause. Scripter Neil McKay, gifted with an already incredible true story, has populated these events with the sort of quirky, colorful, small-town residents and eccentrics who pop up in whimsical dramedies such as “Gregory’s Girl,” “The Closer You Get” and “The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill But Came Down a Mountain.” The fact that many of Lyn’s actors are portraying real people is the icing on the cake. The time is just before the turn of the 21st century, the setting the depressed hamlet of Cefn Fforest in South Wales, fallen on hard times since the closure of its nearby mines. The indefatigable Jan Vokes (Toni Collette) rises at dawn every morning, in order to wash the floors and then work the register at a local mega-market; in the evenings, she tends bar at a workingmen’s club. In between, somehow, she looks after her elderly parents and her arthritic husband, Brian (Owen Teale). In her free time, as a lifelong animal lover, she raises rabbits, whippets, ducks and even prize-winning pigeons. One evening, she chances

‘Dream Horse’ Starring: Toni Collette, Damian Lewis, Owen Teale, Karl Johnson, Anthony O’Donnell, Siân Phillips, Di Botcher, Nicholas Farrell, Joanna Page and Peter Davison Rating: PG, for no particular reason Available via: movie theaters to hear a conversation led by club patron Howard Davies (Damian Lewis), while he waxes eloquent about the trials and tribulations — and expense — of raising racehorses. Captivated by the notion, despite its complete impracticality, Jan immerses herself in horse lore and pumps Howard for additional information. Fully aware that she’d never be able to buy a racing thoroughbred, Jan opts for the alternative of creating one, by purchasing an undistinguished mare for £300 and installing it in a makeshift stable in her garden. But breeding and then training a racehorse will require much, much more money. Her solution: to enlist the financial support of local townsfolk, via a co-ownership syndicate. On the appointed evening — having mounted and distributed flyers throughout the community — Jan, Brian and Howard nervously wait for somebody to arrive. They ultimately wind up with a motley collection of 23 villagers, each of whom agrees to contribute £10 per week, in service of this wild scheme. Several of these individuals are unemployed and on the dole; others barely make ends meet in their own small businesses. But all are inspired by Jan’s passion, and by the tantalizing

Nothing beats the excitement of birth, as Jan (Toni Collette) and Brian (Owen Teale) discover, when their new foal enters the world. notion — however unlikely — of raising and then racing a champion horse. We don’t get to know all of the syndicate members, although several stand out: Nerys (Di Botcher), the feisty owner of a local butcher shop; the elderly and always impeccably dressed Maureen (Siân Phillips), lover of fancy hats; the officious Maldwyn (Anthony O’Donnell), who shows up “fully briefed and ready to assess the viability of this venture;” the young and eager Goose (Darren Evans); and the cashstrapped local souse, Kerby (Karl Johnson). Their collective enthusiasm notwithstanding, Howard warns everybody that they must not participate with the expectation of making money, as there’s a less than 1 percent chance that their horse — not even born yet — will ever win a race. Instead, they must “do it for the hwyl” — roughly pronounced hoyl, and referring to “a stirring feeling of emotional motivation and energy.” Really, could any movie premise be more captivating? Lyn’s tone is larkish throughout this first act, as

every detail allows one or more of the scene-stealing cast members to shine. The foal arrives soon enough: a truly lovely animal, ultimately named Dream Alliance. Once it’s old enough to run, Jan — aiming for the stars, as always — obtains an appointment with wellregarded trainer Philip Hobbs (Nicholas Farrell). Hobbs couldn’t be less interested, particularly since Dream Alliance shows no desire to circle the track. Until, quite suddenly, he does. (Honestly, telling any more would spoil the joy of discovery.) The delightfully quirky syndicate members notwithstanding, Collette’s portrayal of Jan is decisively serious. Collette is too often overlooked when compiling lists of outstanding actresses; she has an impressive talent for delivering delicately nuanced performances. Consider Jan’s weary, beaten expression, as she silently rides the supermarket floor scrubber; contrast that with the woman’s sheer bliss, at the foal’s arrival. We understand, thanks to Collette’s shading, that

this isn’t merely a horse. Dream becomes Jan’s friend, confidant and — most important — a refuge from the rigors of her daily life. “I need something to look forward to when I get up in the morning,” Jan explains to her husband, in one of the many deeply touching scenes Collette shares with Teale. “To remind me that things can … change.” It’s initially tempting to dismiss Brian as just another eccentric, with his ample missing teeth and the letters “L-O-V-E” tattooed on the knuckles of one hand. But Teale’s performance is equally layered: a man quietly guilty over being “useless” because of his physical limitations — a feeling Jan ferociously disputes — who, somewhat to his surprise, regains his spirit while sharing in this mad adventure. Lewis, well remembered from “Band of Brothers” and television’s “Homeland,” deftly handles the sole character with a bit of genuine melodrama. Howard hasn’t shared his involvement in this syndicate with his wife, Angela

(Joanna Page), because — after nearing losing their home and savings during a previous venture — he promised that he’d never again get involved with a racehorse. Peter Davison, beloved for everything from “All Creatures Great and Small” to “Doctor Who” and “Law & Order UK,” pops up briefly as snobbish racehorse owner Lord Avery, who takes a dim view of this gaggle of amateurs invading “his turf.” Cinematographer Erik Wilson, editor Jamie Pearson and first assistant director Peter Bennett make every racing sequence its own unique little story, with distinctive tics and hiccups; each one is an even more suspenseful edge-of-theseat experience. Benjamin Woodgates’ frothy orchestral score frequently yields to a boisterous collection of pop and rock tunes by Welsh bands such as Super Furry Animals, Manic Street Preachers, Catatonia and Gorky’s Zygotic Mynci. The standout song, however, was made famous half a century ago by another Welshman: “Delilah” (a tune now so popular, that Welsh people sing it at every possible social occasion). Lyn builds his film to a rousing climax that’ll have folks cheering in the aisles, then follows that with a jubilant, end credits singalong straight out of a Bollywood musical; it blends cast actors with the actual Jan Vokes and several of her syndicate members. And, just in passing, you’ll have an equally grand time with “Dark Horse,” the 2015 BAFTA and Sundance-winning documentary that profiled Jan and Dream Alliance and inspired this film. — Read more of Derrick Bang’s film criticism at http://derrickbang. blogspot.com.

Annual Davis Dance Project celebrates community Special to The Enterprise The Pamela Trokanski Dance Theatre announces the online release of this year’s Davis Dance Project: “Stronger, Together … A Celebration of Our Community.” This 24-minute video, set to music by Hank Lawson, is a series of 30-second shorts that “move” all around Davis and include not only dancers from the PTDT, but many people from the community including the Light Ballet

Company, iDance Group, Acme Theatre Company, volunteers from STEAC, staff members from the Davis Senior Center, Bob Dunning and many more. The first Davis Dance Project was held in 1997 and funded by an arts contract from the Davis Civic Arts Commission. It became an annual event produced by the PTDT that, for over two decades, has both explored multiple facets of the art form

while creating collaborative events for local dancers, choreographers, musicians, poets and more. This year, the PTDT was inspired to use dance and movement to celebrate the resiliency and strength of the community as it navigates a pandemic, and to acknowledge many of the wonderful things that make Davis, Davis. This year’s project worked off

of a list of suggestions from people in the community ranging from the conceptual (a safe community, diversity, friendly neighbors, a community that supports the arts) to specific people, organizations and businesses at work in the community, to environmental amenities like trees, greenbelts, and bike paths, and to annual events such as the Whole Earth Festival or the July 4 celebration.

Logos Books displays work by Carrie Ceniseroz Special to The Enterprise “Ancient Illusions,” a display of etchings and paintings by Carrie Ceniseroz, runs from Saturday, May 29 through July 2 at Logos Books, 513 Second St. in Davis. Ceniseroz is a retired Davis art teacher, a Crocker Art Museum docent and a local participant in all things artrelated (including the arts coordinator for Logos Books). “The upcoming display of artwork is a gathering of many years of interest in the ancient peoples of Central America. Part of my family is from Mexico and having traveled many times to enjoy the rich heritage, I found I wanted to share with others the intriguing stories of the artistic culture of these ancient peoples,” she said. “We should learn from the past and delve into the study of the life and death of these past peoples. They left their mark and art on buildings, temples, ceramics, textiles and codex writings. I have learned to appreciate their ancient trials and tribulations along with pride in their

Due to the limitations of the pandemic, safety protocols and timing constraints, not every suggestion could be represented. Anyone who would like to be involved in next year’s project may contact Pamela Trokanski at pamela@trokanski.com.

Many of these peoples —Mayans, Mexica-Azteca, Zapotecos, Teotihuacanos and Olmecas — reflected themselves in their treatment of their deities. They were immersed in understanding the otherworld and the underworld. They made themselves rulers and prophets and influenced trade and communication

throughout North, Central and South America,” she added. “I have appreciated these ancient peoples’ artistic sense and try to include this sensibility in my artwork. I have chosen many images of life through death as a reflection of my own family’s life through death experiences. The Xipe Totec,
