Mondavi marks 20 years with old friends, new faces, surprises

Itzhak Perlman

By Jeff Hudson Enterprise correspondent The Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts will launch its 20th Anniversary Season this fall. And some big names will be coming to town for the festivities.

The first big orchestra concert of the anniversary season will be the San Francisco Symphony, performing at Mondavi on Oct. 6 under Finnish-born conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen, who became the SFS’s music director in 2020 (but saw much of his planned concert programing for the San Francisco Symphony “rained out” over his first two years on the job by the Covid pandemic).

Booking the San Francisco Symphony during the opening weeks of the Mondavi Center’s 20th Anniversary Season is a deliberate act of symmetry, because the San Francisco Symphony (then led by conductor Michael Tilson Thomas) played at the Mondavi Center’s grand opening gala back in October 2002. That concert launched the spiffy new performing arts complex with a memorable flourish.

Violin superstar Itzhak Perlman will return to Mondavi on Jan. 14. Longtime Davis residents with good memories may recall some 25 years ago, the old UC Davis Presents series booked Perlman as the big-name celebrity to perform at the concert that kicked off the fund-raising effort to build what would eventually become known as the Mondavi Center.

At that time, the proposed $62 million performing arts complex at The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, above, will perform at UC Davis was known as the Mondavi Center on April 18-19.

Beck driven to action by climate crisis

By Anne Ternus-Bellamy Enterprise staff writer The last time a woman served on the Yolo County Board of Supervisors was more than a decade ago, when Helen Thomson represented District 2 until her retirement in 2010.

Juliette Beck hopes to end that streak in 2022.

The Davis resident, ecologist and climate activist declared her candidacy just two months ago, motivated in part by the absence of women seeking to succeed retiring Supervisor Don Saylor.

Several women had announced their potential candidacy when Saylor announced last summer he would not seek re-election in District 2, but none ultimately chose to run, leaving Davis Vice Mayor Lucas Frerichs the lone candidate.

have been growing up in a county with no female representatives “and you can’t be what you can’t see.”

When women are elected to office, said Beck, politics change and become more about lived experiences. They also become more compassionate.

“More than half of the residents of this county are female,” she said, and government “should be representative.”

The importance of representation is not the only reason Beck is running, of course.

Having a climate champion on the Board of Supervisors is another.

“This is a really critical election,” said Beck. “We’re in a decisive decade where everything we

Try not to miss out on these singers T A HEY’RE BACK ... After being forced to the sidelines for nearly two-and-a-half years due to COVID restrictions, the esteemed and internationally celebrated Sacramento Choral Society and Orchestra will begin its 26th season by performing the Verdi Requiem at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 14, in the newly renovated SAFE Credit Union Performing Arts Center in Sacramento.

The choir, 175-voices strong for this performance, is led by incomparable music director Don Kendrick, who also founded the group in the 1990s.

The performance will open with the entire choir singing the Ukrainian National Anthem.

While I’m generally more comfortable reviewing performances on the football field or the basketball court, I’ve had a number of occasions over the years to see the Sacramento Choral Society in action and they are nothing short of brilliant. Always an evening well spent.

As Marin Alsop of NPR noted several years ago, “Verdi’s dramatic gifts are on full display in this work. His vibrant questioning and self-confidence throughout the piece result in true magic. I’ve always had my heart set on Brahms’ Requiem for my memorial some day, but I may have to rethink my plan.”

It promises to be a night to remember.

Tickets available at 916 8085181 or at the box office at 1301 L Street in downtown Sacramento.

THE SUPREMES SPEAK ...

“Supreme Court declines to review

Trackside decision,” said the bold front-page headline in Davis’ Only Local Newspaper.

No, Brett Kavanaugh and John Roberts and Amy Coney Barrett had no say in this decision. We’re talking about the California State Supreme Court, led by UC Davis Law graduate Tani CantilSakauye, not the folks in Washington, D.C. Our state’s highest court declined to review an appellate court ruling that upheld the city of Davis’ approval of the Trackside Center on the eastern edge of Downtown Davis. Presumably the long-delayed project can now proceed, given that the Feds are unlikely to get involved.

Then again, opponents of the project — and there are many — could perhaps get back into court by claiming Trackside will ruin the natural habitat of the rare and endangered Track-Dwelling Toad (Union pacificus) that cleverly lays its eggs between railroad ties, safely below the level

May designated National Bicycle Safety Month Special to The Enterprise Grab your bicycle, fasten your helmet, and get outdoors for a bike ride. With more daylight hours before sunset and warming temperatures, May is the perfect month to enjoy outdoor activities.

May also happens to be National Bicycle Safety Month, and the California Highway Patrol and Office of Traffic Safety want to remind outdoor enthusiasts that whether you are a cyclist, pedestrian or driver, traffic safety laws are in place to save lives.

“As more Californians choose walking and bicycling as primary modes of transportation, creating a safer environment for all roadway users is a shared responsibility,” Commissioner Amanda Ray said.

Drivers can help create a safer environment for cyclists by checking their blind spots when changing lanes, proceeding with caution through intersections, remembering to look carefully for bicyclists and pedestrians before making a turn, and always looking for cyclists before opening the car door near streets or bike paths.

California law also requires drivers to maintain a minimum of three feet of distance when

passing or overtaking a cyclist. If there is not enough room to safely pass, be patient and wait until it is safe.

“If you’re driving, be the best version of yourself,” OTS Director Barbara Rooney said. “We are all pedestrians at one point and many of us ride bikes.

Slow down and share the road so we may all get places safely.”

According to the CHP’s Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System, in 2020, California had almost 8,800 bicycle crashes, with 90 percent of them involving an injury.

In that same year, 151 people died in bicycle crashes.

Although helmets are not required for people ages 18 and older, wearing a properly secured helmet drastically reduces a rider’s chance of a head injury. As part of National Bicycle Safety Month, the CHP has partnered with the OTS to educate the public on bicycle safety and the laws that apply to all modes of transportation.

Throughout May, many local CHP offices will offer educational presentations and bicycle trainings to promote bicycle safety. Go to https://www.chp.ca.gov/ find-an-office to contact your local CHP office.

of passing trains.

Never seen a Track-Dwelling Toad in town? Proves how endangered they are.

PICKLE FOR YOUR THOUGHTS ... I see that the state of Washington has declared pickleball to be the Official State Sport. What this designation means is unclear, but it is yet further proof of the power of the pickleball lobby, made up primarily of former tennis players who can no longer move around the court as well as they did in their youth. (See photo above).

A number of underused tennis courts in Davis have been converted to pickleball and there’s little doubt that by the time the U.S. Open rolls around this September, pickleball rules will be in effect for all matches.

Makes one wonder what Bobby Riggs would have to say about all this.

Coroner ID’s train fatality victim

By Lauren Keene Enterprise staff writer Yolo County coroner’s officials identified the victim of Tuesday’s train-versuspedestrian fatality as Treyton Longmore, 27, who was from Yreka before he came to Davis.

Chief Deputy Coroner Gina Moya said her office is still continuing to investigate Longmore’s manner of death, whether accidental or suicide.

The Davis Police Department reported

that the fatality occurred at about 7 a.m.

Tuesday on the tracks along Second Street near Fermi Place, where moments earlier a passerby called local police to report seeing a man on the tracks “who appeared to be praying.”

While officers were en route to the scene, Union Pacific Railroad police notified dispatchers that one of their trains had struck a pedestrian, police said. The incident remains under investigation by that agency.

FRIDAY, MAY 6, 2022 A3

Answers from open-source innovation B ack when I graduated from the first college I went to, I got a job with an electronics company that made what was then a cuttingedge device to enable people who are blind to read books and newspapers.

At the time, this was a significant improvement to the lives of many. The device was about the size of a hardbound edition of “War and Peace.” The person operating the device would put his or her index finger into a slot which included 144 small holes, with a small metallic pin under the surface, while, with the other hand passing a small camera, about the size of a Swiss Army knife, across the text. The camera would see either dark letters or the white background they were printed on and send an electrical impulse to the holes on the array that corresponded to the letters the camera being viewed, causing the pin in each of those holes to vibrate. The reader would feel the shape of each letter moving from one to the next until he or she could feel an entire word.

This small company pioneering big changes for the visually impaired, was started by two engineers, both from Stanford

University. And they were not alone as innovators. Stanford had a lot of land and they used a good portion of it to provide space for innovative start-ups, most of which came from the brains of former students and faculty.

The symbiosis between the innovators and the university had a great deal to do with the creation of Silicon Valley. Bill Hewlett and Davis Packard were also graduates from Stanford with degrees in electrical engineering. Their start-up was started in a rented garage in Palo Alto, where the two of them worked on a part-time basis.

Their initial investment was $538, comparable to about $10,000 today. Their garage has been designated an official California Historical Landmark with a plaque that marks it the “Birthplace of Silicone Valley.”

Not to belabor the point but many incredible innovations grew from very small and modest beginnings. It is stories like these, and we can include Apple, Microsoft and thousands of others, that offer hope for managing the climate crisis.

Huge changes with very positive effect have already been made. The electric car industry is making huge strides.

The cost of solar has gone down so far that it’s cheaper than new coal plants. Same thing with wind. While nuclear power plants are still very expensive to build, there are several smaller modules on the near horizon that appear to be less expensive and safer. Steel production with “clean hydrogen” is being pursued by both China and Europe.

Companies in Colorado, Europe, Brazil and elsewhere are working to power steel production with solar energy. Resources for the Future, a premier research institution, recently reported on efforts to create concrete embedded with materials that can charge electric vehicles as they drive over roads made with this form of concrete.

These are just a few examples, and there are many more efforts

Pets of the week Special to The Enterprise Lots of animals are waiting for “forever homes” at the Yolo County Animal Shelter, 2640 E. Gibson Road in Woodland.

Among them is Duke (A195181), a good-looking 1-year-old shepherd and Siberian husky mix. Duke walks easily on leash and will need a daily exercise routine. Duke is friendly and likes socializing with many new friends. He’s a good listener and willing to learn obedience commands.

Also hoping for a good home is Missy (A194853), a 3-year-old lynx-point Siamese cat who recently lost her elderly owner.

Missy is a little unsure of new people and places at first but once she gets to know you she will let you give her chin scratches and melt in your hand.

backed by huge sums of money and incredible brainpower. But what about the little guys? The folks who have an idea and are busy in their garage, kitchen, or whole house trying hard in their spare time to make a contribution to the battle against the climate crisis?

I

recently watched a seminar, one of a series presented under the title of OpenAir that addresses efforts to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. I mentioned this group in recent articles, and I have to say this is an interesting collection of smart, committed people united around an urgency to not just reduce CO2 emissions, but to also remove it from the atmosphere and restore a level necessary for a livable planet.

Some of the seminars are way over my head in terms of technical details, but what I appreciated about the last one was it featured three different but connected efforts. And the overall focus was to ask for help. This open-source process is very different from the Hewlett-Packard model of two people working alone in a garage.

The point of the seminar was to highlight three persons who

Mutt

are working on concepts of how to remove CO2 from the atmosphere. One had a system built using stuff from a hardware store that sucked air into a box.

Inside the box was what looked like a series of filters that looked a bit like paper towels but had the quality of being able to absorb some of the CO2 from the air passing through. The goal is to capture one kilogram of CO2 per day, at a cost not to exceed $2,000. A device that anyone could use at home and be a part of the solution.

My description doesn’t do justice to the thinking and experimenting that went into the prototype. Suffice it to say, the goal is easier to say than it is to achieve; the details of the process, coupled to the boundaries of cost and performance, are daunting the inventor was asking for any help or ideas we, the observers, might contribute.

Here’s hoping one or more of these open-source efforts can help bring CO2 levels down.

REMOTE: More data, Obituaries Valerie Dawn McKee Shaw better outcomes Oct. 9, 1963 — Dec. 27, 2021

From Page A1 The new partnership is centered around UC Davis Health’s virtual care strategy, which includes using a data-driven clinical intelligence platform made by BioIntelliSense.

The health system said the platform will improve remote care while reducing the cost and burden of traditional vital sign collection methods.

“Remote care represents a safe and effective way for many people, especially in rural and low-income communities, to access necessary health care services in more convenient ways. As one of the nation’s leaders in telehealth, we’ve seen how real-time technology connects expertise with need, closing large timelapse gaps in health care delivery,” said David Lubarsky, CEO of UC Davis Health. “Now, with continuous and simultaneous Internet connectivity enabling even more remote care, we can have hospital-level monitoring of multiple vital signs wherever patients are inhospital, traveling, or at home.”

According to Lubarsky, the remote care strategies enabled by BioIntelliSense technologies will lead to better health outcomes for patients at UC Davis Health.

“Patients will benefit from lower levels of human monitoring and shorter hospital stays.

Providers will immediately be able to note any

deviations from expected recovery or response to treatment, and communicate with the patient, family caregivers and other providers as soon as the continuous monitoring predicts a potential or real negative turn in health,” Lubarsky said.

“This near real-time remote monitoring will lead to more timely interventions and better health outcomes, achieved in lower acuity settings that are more patient- and family-friendly, such as the patient’s home.”

In the coming months, personnel from UC Davis Health and BioIntelliSense will collaborate on “how best to deliver an exceptional patient and clinical experience while prioritizing patient safety and efficacy at scale,” the press release stated.

Through that process, they will expand access to BioIntelliSense’s remote care technologies.

“We are proud to embark on this strategic collaboration with UC Davis Health to advance remote care for patients across the care continuum,” said James Mault, MD, Founder and CEO of BioIntelliSense. “With cost effective, data-driven continuous care, we can bend the cost curve and extend the reach of advanced remote care technologies to improve how we treat and care for patients with complex conditions including oncology, orthopedics, cardiac, infectious disease and renal disease.”

Valerie McKee Shaw, 58, passed away peacefully Dec. 27, 2021, after an illness.

Valerie Dawn McKee was born on October 9, 1963 in Long Beach to parents Bill and Sandi McKee. She was the second child born of four children. Valerie spent her early years in southern California until the family relocated to Davis in the mid ’70s.

April 10, 1929 — April 7, 2022 Donald Kyhos passed away peacefully at home surrounded by family on April 7, 2022. Throughout what he described as a wonderful 93-year life, he remained curious, humorous and kind.

Don grew up an only child in a 1930s Los Angeles filled with orange groves. His parents worked tirelessly and his family moved neighborhoods often, so his grandmother, dog, duck and goat became his daily companions. He spent many hours wandering the hillsides of Southern California with his boxer, Sugar, observing insects, plants, and other creatures. His childhood pursuits fueled an interest in biology and after serving in Korea, he returned to UCLA, met his beloved wife, Yoshie, and earned his Ph.D. in botany.

Don worked as a professor of botany at UC Davis.

There he was dedicated to his research on plant evolution. He studied plant families in both the lab and the field in territories ranging from the desert of Baja

California to Maui’s Haleakala crater. He collaborated in lifelong work with his graduate students who have said they regarded him as an exceptional mentor and friend.

His undergraduate students commented enthusiastically about his attention to teaching many proclaiming him the best professor they ever had. He was also a great enthusiast of the university tennis courts where he played seven days a week.

During their 51-year marriage, Don and Yoshie raised three daughters, Alice, Jill and Gayle. Don loved his wife beyond measure and was a patient, fun and influential father, father-in-law and grandfather. In retirement, alongside Yoshie, he cared for his grandchildren from the time they were infants.

He enjoyed them immensely, marveling over their actions and patiently answering their many questions about the natural world.

He took great pleasure in breeding fish and caring for the many plants in his home, greenhouse and

the past few years spending time with her beloved grandchildren, being “Nana” was where she found her joy.

Valerie is survived by her only child, Tyler Shaw, his wife Tanya, and their two children, Teja and Timir. In addition to her son, she is survived by her mother and stepfather, Sandi and David Morris; sisters Lori, Shari and Denise; and brother Trevor.

MONDAVI: Pandemic forced cancellations, rescheduling From Page A1 n Violinist Joshua Bell, who visits Mondavi almost every season, will present a recital on Dec. 10. n Cellist Yo-Yo Ma, pianist Emanuel Ax and violinist Leonidas Kavakos on Jan. 24. These three celebrated performers, finding themselves left high-anddry by the pandemic (with no concert dates to play), decided to get together as a trio and cut an album featuring Beethoven’s piano trios. They’ll be touring periodically next season to support that recording. n Soviet-born pianist Vladimir Feltsman, who’s been concertizing for decades, returns on April 8, making up a Mondavi Center booking that got cancelled during the pandemic. n Finnish-born conductor Osmo Vänskä, who is wrapping up a nearly twodecade tenure leading the Minnesota Orchestra, will conduct the Curtis Symphony Orchestra (from Philadelphia’s renowned Curtis Institute of Music) in a concert at Mondavi on May 21. The soloist will be the respected Soviet-born Israeli-American pianist Yefim Bronfman. n The popular Barbara Jackson Rising Stars of Opera concert, featuring singers from the San Francisco Opera’s Adler Fellows program, has traditionally been held in October. It will now move to Feb. 5.

Dance Two big names: the French company Ballet Preljocaj (putting their spin on “Swan Lake” on March 5,) and the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater (on April 18-19)

Jazz Vocalist Cécile McLorin Salvant, who’s drawn enthusiastic audiences in several previous appearances at Mondavi, returns to Jackson Hall on Jan. 27.

Other familiar faces will include Cuban-born artists Pedrito Martinez and Alfredo Rodríguez (Feb. 24). The jazz season will also include several young up-and-coming artists in the Vanderhoef Studio Theater.

World Stage In a time-honored Mondavi Center tradition, the season includes a flashy, thunderous Japanaese taiko ensemble (Yamato, on Feb. 26), an Irish dance troupe (Dublin Irish Dance, April 14), a magnetic mariachi ensemble from Mexico (Aida Cuevas and Mariachi Juvenil Tecalitán, on Oct. 12), and the young Venezuelan singer Nella, who’s won a Latin Grammy (Oct. 29).

American roots

The foursome of bassist Edgar Meyer (who plays classical-to-bluegrass), violinist George Meyer (Edgar’s son), and bluegrass mandolinists Mike Marshall and Sam Bush visit on Jan. 20. Multi-talented singer/songwriter Becca Stevens (booked by Mondavi a couple of years ago, and bumped back by the pandemic) is set for Feb. 9.

Ranky Tanky, which plays music reflecting the Gullah culture from islands off the Atlantic shore of several Southern states, visits on April 1.

Operatic mezzo J’Nai Bridges and percussionis Ulysses Owens, Jr. team up for a concert featuring music of French Impressionist composers — and legendary American bandleader Duke Ellington — on April 30.

NorCal faces The Alexander String Quartet — based in San Francisco and stalwarts at the Mondavi Center since Season 1 — continue their multiconcert exploration of chamber music by Czech/Bohemian composer Antonín Dvorák.

Pianist Lara Downes and linguist John McWhorter (expert in creole languages) team up on May 5 for a reappraisal of Scott Joplin, who is best remembered as a composer of piano rags, but whose groundbreaking musical contributions to American were much more extensive.

And the American Bach Soloists, based in San Francisco, will return to Mondavi’s Jackson Hall on Dec. 17 for “A Baroque Christmas,” including highlights of Handel’s “Messiah,” as well as other Christmas music from the Baroque era.

... And something quite unusual The Mondavi Center is particularly proud to be hosting a presentation called “Evolve” by a group known as the Red Door Project, which is linked to the name of the late, great American playwright August Wilson (19452005), whose mammoth 10-play cycle examined African-American community life and experiences from 1900 through 2000.

This widely praised “new performance experience” has been presented in several American cities, and comes to the Mondavi Center on Nov. 11-12. It was previously scheduled for November 2021, but rescheduled due to the pandemic. The presentation “explores the relationship between law enforcement and communities of color,” looking at the issues involved from multiple points of view.

What’s missing Many people feel be ready to be done with the COVID virus ... but the virus continues to play havoc with the Mondavi Center’s 20th Anniversary Season lineup. And the invasion of Ukraine by the Russian military earlier this year triggered plenty of knock-on repercussions for touring artists of all kinds.

The Mondavi Center had engaged the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra to perform in Davis as part of the 20th Anniversary Season. “But the day after Ukraine was invaded, their tour was cancelled,” Ganter said. “It was very sad for us, and sad for their musicians (who were looking forward to playing here).”

“We also had a number of artists who were concerned about the global economy and touring during 2022-2023,” Ganter continued. “These were not just Russian or Ukrainian artists, they were concerned about the state of the global economy,” he added.

Ganter acknowledged that some Mondavi Center ticket buyers were initially a bit skittish about the pandemic when the current 2021-2022 season began last fall. But more recently, the Mondavi Center has hosted multiple sold-out events, including Ballet Folklórico de México de Amalia Hernández, Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra with Wynton Marsalis, the Academy of St. Martin in the Fields with violinist Joshua Bell, humorist/storyteller David Sedaris, and the appearance by author Dr. Ibram X. Kendi (part of the UC Davis Campus Community Book Project).

Looking back, forward Jeremy Ganter, now the Mondavi Center’s Associate Executive Director, was on the Mondavi Center staff during the construction of the facility, and

attended the grand opening gala in 2002.

When invited to reflect on those initial days of the Mondavi Center, Ganter took a broad view and said, “When Larry Vanderhoef made the decision to build a performing arts center at UC Davis it was, in his words, the biggest risk he would ever take as UC Davis chancellor.

We’ve had a lot of success in the two decades since we opened (in 2002), and we’re now an established piece of the region’s arts ecosystem. But I never forget about the gutsy, risky, and even radical thinking that got this place built.

Performing arts centers can be deceptively tough operations to create and to manage, but we’re proud that the Mondavi Center has been such a labor of love, and a place that has generated awe and wonder since day one. We are very lucky.”

Don Roth, who’s been the Mondavi Center’s Executive Director for more than a decade, came to Davis several years after

the Mondavi Center opened. Roth has been thinking about the 20th Anniversary Season for a long time, and said, “We always knew that our 20th Anniversary Season needed to be special. That, as always, we would discover amazing new artists

“But what we didn’t know, when we first starting thinking about this anniversary season, is that we would be emerging from a time that has challenged everyone one of us, our staff, the artists we present and the patrons we welcome. I feel so fortunate that I get to work with the great Mondavi Center team to provide the kinds of restorative experiences — through music, dance, theater and lectures — that can lift us out of our daily life and concerns, and provide enrichment, entertainment and joy.”

BECK: Looking to ensure a healthy future for coming generations From Page A1 do will decide whether we have a livable planet in 100 years. That’s why I’m running — ensuring the ability of future generations to thrive.”

Beck’s work on environmental issues dates back to the beginning of her career, after she graduated from UC Berkeley with a degree in environmental science policy and management as well as a minor in forestry.

Her work over the ensuing 30 years was in both government and in the private sector working as an environmental engineer.

She’s alway been a community advocate as well, including after moving to Davis with her husband, Nick Buxton, in 2008.

While Beck grew up in San Diego, the Central Valley was home for generations of her family, she said, including her grandfather and great grandfather who worked in the agricultural industry.

“So I definitely feel this connec-

tion to the land, and to being a better steward of the land,” she said. “It would be quite an honor to be a representative of this county.”

Representing the county well, she said, means ensuring a healthy future for future generations, including her own daughters, and that means action on climate change.

“I’m committed to it as a mother because I want my daughters to be prepared,” she said.

To that end, well before entering the supervisors’ race, Beck has been involved, including helping establish the Yolo County Climate Action Commission, which is working with local farmers, scientists, business owners and others on a blueprint for a sustainable regional economy.

Priorities for her include ensuring that as climate change worsens, that doesn’t worsen existing inequities at the same time.

She is particularly concerned about the impact of increasing temperatures, power shut-offs,

water and food insecurity and wildfire on outdoor workers, children and sensitive populations with asthma and compromised immune systems.

“I really hope the county can play a role in equity-driven climate action,” she said, whether it’s making community-owned electric cars available to residents of rural areas or establishing community resiliency shelters equipped with fossilfree electric power to provide essential services such as air conditioning, freezer space and phone charging during grid outages.

Other priorities for Beck: n Convening a Drought Response Working Group to protect groundwater for future generations and guarantee the human right to water for all; n Working with Valley Clean Energy to expand heat pump technologies across the county; n Promoting active mobility, electric car sharing and public transit; and n Developing a $20 million

Climate Resiliency Fund with the Yolo Climate Action Commission and county staff. n Increasing affordable housing, food security — including ensuring healthy food is more available — and economic development, particularly related to agriculture.

“We’re in this industrial agricultural county that hasn’t paid attention to economic development,” Beck said. And that development, she added, should build community wealth, not just for some.

Beck would also like to see county government more accessible to residents of all ages and walks of life.

Currently, she said, Yolo County has a bit of a “good old boy” element to it.

“The playing field is not level and I’m trying to do my best to level it,” Beck said.

Many have told her they’re happy to see her trying.

“Everyone I’ve talked to, even if they’ve already endorsed (Frerichs), is so happy I’m running,”

Beck said. “They see me as the change that’s needed.”

And helping her in that effort are young people, including 20-yearold UC Davis student and activist Marlen Garcia, who she has worked with on the Youth Climate Strike.

Garcia is serving as Beck’s campaign manager and the campaign team of 13 is led by other young people.

“This youth movement is incredibly important,” said Beck. “Bringing youth to the table is a game changer. They bring a certain level of moral clarity.”

If elected supervisor, Beck said she would work to see more youth involvement in government.

Unlike Frerichs, who was able to begin fundraising for the campaign in 2021, Beck only began seeking contributions two months ago. As of April 23, she had taken in $11,518 in donations from nearly 40 individuals.

‘Doctor Strange’ — Quite insane Superhero ‘Doctor Strange entry little in the Multiverse of Madness’ more than a fantasy slugfest

By Derrick Bang Enterprise film critic Magic-laden stories can be problematic.

Rules must be established, or else conflict becomes pointless. J.K. Rowling was quite careful, in her Harry Potter books, to ensure wellestablished strengths and weaknesses on both sides; evil occasionally triumphed, sometimes resulting in the death of beloved characters.

Suspense and emotional involvement were maintained throughout the series.

Sloppy writers, on the other hand, simply make up stuff as a given moment demands; the result becomes random and pointless. If our hero suddenly can summon “the Hoary Hosts of Hoggoth” — to quote an oft-used spell in the classic 1960s Stan Lee/Steve Ditko “Doctor Strange” comic book stories — to reverse an incantation cast upon him, well, where’s the suspense in that?

Michael Waldron, sad to say, is a sloppy writer.

We should’ve expected as much, given his involvement as creator, executive producer and occasional writer of television’s “Loki” miniseries, which — despite a promising start — quickly devolved into utter incomprehensibility. The final few

Rating: PG-13, for frightening images, occasional profanity, and relentless action violence Starring: Benedict Cumberbatch, Elizabeth Olsen, Xochitl Gomez, Benedict Wong, Rachel McAdams, Chiwetel Ejiofor Available via: Movie theaters episodes were the worst example of random, kitchensink scripting I’ve seen in years.

Waldron’s approach to this Doctor Strange sequel is no different, and he repeatedly succumbs to the sloppy cliché that is the death of narrative tension: Every character is only as strong, or weak, as s/he needs to be, in order to triumph — or fail — at a given moment.

Lather, rinse, repeat. Ad infinitum.

This builds to an utterly ludicrous deus ex machina moment during the climax: the equivalent of Dorothy suddenly being told that she always had the means to return to Kansas. I mean, seriously?

So: Events begin quietly, as Stephen Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) attends the

On the run from an opponent who can’t be stopped by anything, our heroes — from left America (Xochitl Gomez), Wong (Benedict Wong) and Doctor Strange (Benedict Cumberbatch) — pause to consider their next move. wedding of Christine Palmer (Rachel McAdams), a former lover who — wisely — chose a different path. The ceremony is interrupted by the sudden appearance of a massive, one-eyed octopoid galumphing through New York’s streets, in tentacled pursuit of young America Chavez (Xochitl Gomez).

The creature is defeated

by Strange and his “sorcerer supreme” mentor, Wong (Benedict Wong), after which they pepper America with the obvious who/what/ why questions. Turns out she has the power to create starshaped holes in reality, which grant access to other realities in the multiverse (something Strange helped Peter Parker mess with, in the most recent Spider-Man entry).

This creature, along with

the horrifying dreams Strange recently has suffered, represent dark magic run amok. Hoping to enlist an ally familiar with such things, he visits Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen), more notoriously known as the Scarlet Witch.

Alas, this proves an alarming chat. She’s actually the Big Bad responsible for the mounting chaos: the dark entity who wants America’s multiverse-spanning talent, because it’s one ability Wanda lacks. Her goal: to find a universe where the “family” she fabricated — in 2021’s brilliantly clever TV miniseries, “WandaVision” — is a reality.

If bleeding this gift from America will kill the girl, that is of no consequence to the Scarlet Witch; that she’d similarly destroy an

alternate universe’s Wanda, should her search prove successful, also is of no consequence.

This rather flies in the face of Wanda’s oft-repeated insistence that “I’m not a monster,” a line poor Olsen can’t begin to deliver with whatever emotion Waldron had in mind.

Not a monster? That’s a joke, since she indulges in quite a lot of monstrous behavior — including mayhem and several quite gruesome murders — before this tedious, magic-laden slugfest concludes.

The relentless bursts of magical energy knocking folks asunder notwithstanding, the various multiverses are captivating, eye-popping settings for these skirmishes.

Production designer Charles Wood and a veritable army of

SFX folks deliver a wildly chaotic blend of futuristic cityscapes, “Inception’s” building-bending landscapes, and the swirling, color-saturated, inter-dimensional badlands lifted right from Ditko’s long-ago comic book artwork (which was quite trippy stuff, for its time).

One lengthy stop offers alternate versions of familiar Marvel superheroes — not identified here, as that’d spoil the fun — a few of whom benefit from cheeky stunt casting. This universe also offers an alternate Christine; could this be an opportunity for Stephen to re-write his failed love life?

(I’ll not tell.)

Cumberbatch certainly knows how to flaunt Strange’s distinctive garb; to

Don’t cry for DMTC, catch ‘Evita’

By Jennifer Goldman Enterprise theater critic Politics, glamour, stardom, ambition, class struggles; these are the themes of Davis Musical Theater’s production of “Evita.” Written by Tim Rice with music by Andrew Lloyd Webber, the show won seven Tony awards back in 1980, including Best Musical.

Starting in a small town, at age 15, the beloved and talented Eva Peron starts climbing her way to fame and power to fight the aristocracy and become the savior of the poor Argentine people. This show had me on the edge of my seat, waiting to see how the story of Eva, the most famous and popular First Lady of Argentina, unfolds.

This was a standout performance

by Lindsay Grimes (Eva) who sang for

nearly the entire show. The show was operatic in style, where all of the lines the actors said were sung rather than spoken. At one point in the show, Grimes screams her frustrations so loudly that we all wondered if her voice would be able to finish the show.

J. Sing (Che) was also a fantastic actor and singer who’s athletic presence captivated the audience. In the musical, he was always trying to get the people of Argentina to see through Eva’s beautiful facade to understand what would truly be what is best for their country and its people.

Isaiah Bent (Juan Peron) played his part to a tee without overshadowing the larger than life character of Eva. Also noteworthy was Hugo Figueroa (Augustin Magaldi), who played an egotistical singer and belted out “On this Night of a Thousand Stars” to

throngs of admiring star struck ladies. Morgan Bartoe (Peron’s Mistress) is becoming one of my favorite supporting actresses at DMTC, and her song “Another Suitcase in Another Hall” pulled at our emotions.

Director and choreographer Jan Isaacson entertained us not only emotionally but physically with her tango-dancing and foot-stomping ensemble. The haunting music directed by Jonathan Rothman, Boris Karpuk and Steve Isaacson blended the live orchestra with the ensemble to create a sound all it’s own that took me away from reality and into a different place and time. Well done!

Evita plays Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. at the Jean Henderson Performing Arts Center, now through May 22. Tickets are available at the box office or online at dmtc.org.

Singing some praises, then having them sung Davis Media Access

Autumn Labbé-Renault Special to The Enterprise

T

his election season marked the second one in which Davis Media Access has recorded candidate statements virtually. The pandemic left us without access to the community television studio and teleprompter at our Fifth Street facility, and was in some ways probably more challenging for candidates, although it did eliminate the travel time for some!

Before I go any further, let me heap some praise on DMA’s Studio Manager, Diane Dedoshka. A longtime, part-time staff member, she’s the reason we’ve been able to funnel resources into making sure that every candidate running a contested race in Yolo County has the same opportunity to get the word out about their campaign. A pioneer in local broadcast TV, Diane broke the glass ceiling for female directors back when she worked for KXTV, and we’ve been

beyond fortunate she’s called DMA her work home for many years.

During the pandemic, she helped evaluate virtual broadcast platforms, retrained herself to do everything remotely, and was pivotal in DMA’s work to keep Yolo County connected and informed.

Lately she’s been working with community member Tim Gaffaney to highlight our local arts and culture sector via “In the Studio.” None of this work would be possible without her!

Diane also recorded a variety of campaign statements for the June 7, 2022 primary election. This non-partisan work is central to DMA’s mission of shining a spotlight on local issues and interests.

Races covered include Measure H (DISC) in Davis and candidate statements for the following contested races ■ Congressional 4th District ■ State Assembly 4th District

■ Yolo County District Attorney ■ Yolo County Sheriff/Coroner/ Public Administrator ■ Yolo County Supervisor District 2 These statements air on DCTV Comcast 15 in Davis, at AT&T U-verse on Menu 99, and at https://dctv.davismedia.org/collections. The entire collection may also be viewed online at https://www.youtube.com/c/ DavisMediaAccess/playlists.

DMA will also air outside programs submitted by the League of Women Voters.

This election work is one of the things that’s brought DMA acclaim of late. I’d like to take a moment to thank Yolo County District 2 Supervisor Don Saylor, and his deputy and assistant deputy Tara Thronson and Sara Simmons, for their tremendous work in hosting and organizing the final Soup’s On event April 21 in support of DMA. Thanks also to the all the sponsors, volunteers, auction donors, and attendees,

Pianist, composer visit Mondavi on May 6

By Jeff Hudson Enterprise correspondent Pianist Lara Downes, a longtime Mondavi favorite, will perform at the Mondavi Center on Friday, May 6, at 7:30 p.m. in Jackson Hall. Downes will be joined by Brazilian-American composer and vocalist Clarice Assad and percussionist Britton-René Collins in a performance of Assad’s suite “World of Change.” In addition, Downes will perform “Promises to Keep,” a suite of new solo piano miniatures written by a variety of composers for Lara Downes.

Downes musical whose career has been in high gear these last few years. She was recently honored by

the syndicated music program “Performance Today” as their “Classical Woman of the Year” for 2022. And she’s released a number of albums that have sold quite well. Downes’ most recent album “Reflections: Scott Joplin Reconsidered” has been widely praised, including a glowing review in the New York Times.

Downes’ 2020 album “Florence Price — Piano Discoveries” was also very well-received.

Florence Price (18871953) was the first AfricanAmerican female composer ever to be performed by a major American symphony orchestra. The music on Downes’ album includes “lost” compositions that were discovered in a home

where the composer had once lived. Downes -whose father was African American -- has earned considerable praise for performing and recording the music by African American composers who lived during the 20th Century.

Downes has performed at the Mondavi Center regularly over the years; she makes her home in Sacramento these days, and she’s often heard on San Francisco’s classical station KDFC, where she serves as a “resident artist,” and Downes’ recording are regularly heard on Capital Public Radio’s Music Station in Sacramento.

Tickets are $65-$25 general, online at Mondavi Arts.org and at the door.

and of course to local legends Mumbo Gumbo.

The one-time event raised over $62,000 for DMA. Here in year three of the pandemic, DMA has plenty of company in the struggle to keep going. Going virtual — and helping many across Yolo County to do so—resulted in greatly increased technology and staffing costs. Coupled with lost event and workshop income, and the very real impact of inflation, it’s been a struggle. We are most grateful for the ways this money will help mitigate these impacts.

Finally, my year was made recently when I learned that state Sen. Bill Dodd (D-Napa) had named DMA as his Yolo County Nonprofit of the Year. I work closely with many in the nonprofit community and let me say, heroes abound, and there are many who are deserving of such an honor. On behalf our board, staff and volunteer community, we’re incredibly honored to be seen in this way.

Diane and I have worked with

the senator over the years on the very candidate statements I mentioned, and in conversation with him last month, he said he felt we’ve never gotten the recognition we deserved, that he was happy to help boost awareness, and was proud to recognize our work.

I will end by saying in a time of crisis, DMA worked hard to become a resource for Yolo County, documenting local response to the pandemic, and providing resources to both inform and uplift. We are honored and gratified that Sen. Dodd has recognized our work in this way, and look forward to continued service.

STRANGE: Visual razzle-dazzle From Page B1 his credit, he delivers Waldron’s overly florid dialogue as seriously as possible. He and Wong also know how to handle the occasional mordant one-liner; this film doesn’t lack humor, but it tends to be overwhelmed.

Gomez is appropriately teen-like as the overwhelmed America; she’s

nonetheless a plucky, resourceful and brave warrior.

Superhero films need not be dumb. Compare this noisy fracas to the thoughtful, carefully plotted script and measured character development in 2018’s “Black Panther”; in contrast, the characters and events here are onedimensional trivialities.

There’s plenty of visual

razzle-dazzle, but no soul; it isn’t even possible for the “tragedy” of Wanda’s quest to resonate, because her behavior is so despicable.

Doctor Strange deserves better. We deserve better.

Our View

FRIDAY, MAY 6, 2022

Frerichs ready to step up The issue: Experience, collaborative style make vice mayor the right choice for supervisor Whoever replaces Don Saylor on the Yolo County Board of Supervisors will have some big shoes to fill. For more than 25 years, Saylor has been a stalwart in elected office, from the Davis school board to the Davis City Council, to county supervisor for more than a decade. Saylor has represented District 2 as supervisor, a district that includes central and West Davis, as well as the UC Davis campus, but also stretches westward to encompass the city of Winters. After Saylor announced his retirement, a handful of candidates tested the waters, but in the end only two are on June’s ballot. From these, we see the clear choice as current Davis Vice Mayor Lucas Frerichs.

A GRADUATE of Davis High School and a truly involved community member, Frerichs has shown the best interests of this city at heart in every action he takes. A former legislative staffer at the state Capitol, he now works associate director of state policy for the Nature Conservancy, where he is responsible for advocating on behalf of environmental causes before the Legislature and state agencies. That experience gives him the tools to do a terrific job representing many competing interests in local government.

His direct, quick-thinking style is just a window into the depth of his passion for local politics. He was first elected to the Davis City Council in 2012 and re-elected in 2016 and 2020. In addition to being selected by his peers on the council as vice mayor in 2020, he also serves on the boards of the Sacramento Area Council of Governments, the Capitol Corridor Joint Powers Authority, the Yolo County Transportation District, Valley Clean Energy and the Yolo Habitat Conservancy.

Frerichs’s local roots run deep — he graduated from Davis High School in 1997 and went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in government from Sacramento State University and a certificate in land use and environmental planning from UC Davis.

His interests are many — from basketball to theater, youth mentorship to the environment. He is a well-rounded person who touches constituents from all walks of life.

He does his homework, checking out complaints first-hand and following up until a problem is resolved.

AMONG THE KEY priorities Frerichs shared with The Enterprise are continuing the collaboration that has already begun between the county and its cities on addressing homelessness — including through Paul’s Place and other efforts — putting in place the Crisis Now partnership to better assist individuals in mental health crises, investing in infrastructure and preparing for, and responding to, climate change.

On the latter issue, it’s urgent the county address two elements of climate change that are affecting residents now, said Frerichs — drought and wildfires. The balance of rural and urban concerns is emblematic of his attention to the needs of a very diverse district.

In his role on the Yolo County Transportation District board of directors, he helped secure an $86 million federal grant intended to relieve congestion along I-80 through Davis and across the causeway as well as an additional grant that will help build a network of bike paths and trails across the county.

The voters of District 2 can do themselves, and the county as a whole, a big service by electing Lucas Frerichs to the Yolo County Board of Supervisors.

Join the fight against food insecurity T

his month I want to address an issue that means a lot to me. That topic is food insecurity. On the surface, it may be hard to tell that our neighbors and friends, our students and their families experience hunger on a regular basis.

According to Feeding America, the projected increase in food insecurity for Yolo County from 2019 to 2021 is estimated to have grown by 24 percent. I don’t know about you, but I find that troubling, especially when we live in a region abundant in agriculture.

During the pandemic, the UC Davis campus community increased its efforts to help the Yolo Food Bank with food deliveries to some of the region’s most vulnerable communities. Others helped Yolo Food Bank by processing requests and responding to driver concerns.

In turn, Yolo Food Bank provided crucial support to UC Davis. Did you know that

Whole Earth drum circle From my youth till now, working to understand other people’s culture and viewpoints has been a core value of mine.

The Whole Earth Festival directors have recently announced the free-for-all drum circle will not be tolerated at WEF this year because it represents offensive cultural appropriation, “or the use of iconography, art, music, ritual, or other cultural practices by persons outside of said culture.”

I’m not sure if you’ve ever really seen or participated in a WEF drum circle, but if you did you’d find musical instruments from every continent, and people from all walks of life and backgrounds in attendance.

It was a joy to perform Bollywood dance on the WEF dance stage 2010, and I’m grateful my dance instructor didn’t question whether I should be allowed to participate because my skin was not the same shade as hers. Our troop had Chinese, Mexican, White, Punjabi, Jewish and Canadian people in it. United Nations of Bollywood.

The Beatles sold records featuring sitar and tabla. Through the Beatles’ influence, classical Indian musicians like Ravi Shankar were able to perform at the Monterey Pop Festival during the Summer of Love.

Did you also know The Beatles were personally responsible for the de-segregation of many stadiums and large concert halls

our students are the single largest recipient of food that’s accessed from Yolo Food Bank community partnerships? That accounts for nearly 275,000 pounds each year between the ASUCD Pantry, Solano Park Apartments, and Aggie Compass Basic Needs Center.

In 2018, the last time food insecurity was measured among UC Davis students, the results of a campus survey found that 44 percent of UC Davis students experienced some form of food insecurity. That is a stunning number.

Volunteers at The Pantry, located in the Memorial Union, help with a variety of tasks so that students can pick up food and other goods.

I’m pleased that we also have a Pantry that is owned and operated by the Graduate Student Association in partnership with the Aggie Compass. It’s located within our new Graduate Center at Historic Walker Hall.

in the early sixties in the American deep south? The Beatles refused to perform in any venue requiring separate sections for Black Americans. Once these venues were forced to remove their segregated seating in order to book The Beatles, these venues remained integrated thereafter.

Your limited view, that a white person shouldn’t teach yoga, that a Chinese woman shouldn’t play the conga drum, that a Latin man shouldn’t hold a tea ceremony, is of the same mindset that banned interracial marriage in parts of the U.S. right up into the 20th century.

The real world is a cultural exchange, a place for synthesis and celebration. That’s what the WEF festival has always been about, and your censorship will be a shortlived blip on the radar of WEF history.

Bike swap another success A big thank you to all who helped at the César Chávez Elementary citywide bike swap on Sunday, April 10. It was a win-win for those who consigned bikes, donated or bought bikes.

More than 350 bikes and bike related items were consigned or donated, the majority of which sold — all for great prices! The swap is a true community effort with local business support, starting with Winston from Davis Bikes & Skateboards and Maria from The Bike Campaign helping out all day adjusting bikes and answering questions; Davis Cyclery consigning bike lights and bike locks for us

in the Yolo County community should go hungry.

Our essential food system workers sustain California’s agriculture and deserve both our thanks and support.

More than 7,000 people are agriculture workers in Yolo County, the people who make “farm-to-fork” possible.

These essential food system workers are also produce packers, processors and those who transport, retail and prepare our food. They form the backbone of our favorite restaurant kitchens and are stewards of the land.

So, as we move deeper into spring and summer, I encourage you to take a look around at those who may be in need. We have the power to make a difference in the face of food insecurity.

We continued to expand the Bike Swap again this year to make it a fundraiser for other Davis schools, so Bike Swap volunteer support came from parents and students of Chávez, Emerson, Korematsu, Harper and Willett schools. We also had mechanical support from the Davis Composite Mountain Biking Team and organizational support from Golden Valley 4H Club, both of which made the CCE Bike Swap their April community service project. And, this year, we also had city of Davis Safe Routes to School coordinator Daniela Tavares busy registering bikes into the city’s bike index system at the Swap.

Lastly, a huge thank you to Davis Bike Club and Ink Monkey for their continued support with canopies and signage, Woodstock’s Pizza & Dos Coyotes for feeding our hardworking volunteers and, of course, Davis Enterprise for helping us get the word out on this citywide, annual event.

All profits from this annual event support César Chávez Elementary Spanish Immersion Parent and Teachers (SIPAT) as well as participating school PTA programs. Thank you again to all who made this continuing event so successful and so fun by consigning a bike, donating a bike or buying a bike. It’s a great way to recycle your bicycle! Hope to see you again next year!

UC Davis squad ready for regionals

By Mike Bush Enterprise sports editor Fifty miles.

That is the distance between El Macero Country Club to The Reserve at Spanos Park in Stockton.

The UC Davis men’s golf team will be making the Interstate 5 trek from Davis to Stockton, which is the site of the NCAA Stockton Regional Championship that was announced on the Golf Channel on Wednesday. The Aggies enter the tournament as the No. 11 seed.

The team and head coach Cy Williams and assistant coach Todd Hammond were at El Macero Country Club to watch the selection show. UCD Athletic Director Rocko DeLuca was also present.

The regional championship will start Monday and run through Wednesday.

“It doesn’t really matter because it’s all going to come down to how you play,” said Williams of the site of the regional tournament. “So, I’m excited that we don’t have to travel. And I know the course and I know it’s going to be a good course for us. I’m excited about that. It’s

good that we’re not buying a bunch of plane tickets and traveling crosscountry.”

The Aggies competed at the NCAA Stillwater Regional at Karsten Creek Golf Course in Stillwater, Okla. in 2021.

On Tuesday, UCD won the Big West Conference title, carding an 11-under 853 to equal the best 54-hole score in school history. The last time UCD won a team conference title in men’s golf was in 2012.

For a second consecutive year, an Aggie won the individual title at the conference championships. Thomas Hutchison, a senior, had a 4-under 68 in the final round to win the event at a 13-under 203. He turned in a more than perfect card with no bogeys on the day and secured the team victory with an eagle on the par-4 16th.

But now he and his Aggie teammates are looking forward to competing at the NCAA Stockton Regional Championship.

“I think it’s a good spot for us,”

Blue Devils beat Marauders

By Rebecca Wasik Enterprise correspondent

In its final home game of the regular season, the Davis High baseball team secured a 7-6 walkoff win against Jesuit High on Thursday.

The Blue Devils were able to avoid being swept with the victory over their rivals.

“It feels amazing,” said Davis High head coach Ethan Guevin of the walk-off. “It’s a great win, especially for our seniors.

Those guys have put a lot into this program. For them to have their last home game end like that is incredible. Everyone played a part in that win.”

Jesuit won 13-3 on Tuesday and 6-5 on Monday.

On top of that, Davis has earned the league’s fourth playoff spot.

In the bottom of the seventh inning, with Jesuit leading 6-5, Blue Devil Will Ackerman led off with a walk. Dillon Rockwell then followed with another walk.

With two on and no outs, Max Scheiber reached first base on a bunt, but Ackerman’s pinchrunner Collin Carpenter was called out at third base.

Then Carter Stoltz then smacked a double to bring home Rockwell for a 6-6 tie.

Next, Brian Chin reached first base on a fielder’s choice, as

Scheiber was called out at home on the play.

Brooks Ochoa, who pitched 2 1/3 innings for the Blue Devils in the game then smacked a single to right field. Ochoa pumped his fist in the air in excitement as he ran to first base, while Stoltz crossed home to seal the Davis victory.

Davis began its comeback in the bottom of the sixth.

Ackerman led off the half inning with a walk, followed by another walk from Scheiber. Stoltz then hit a single, which moved Ackerman to third base and Scheiber to second.

With the bases loaded, Jesuit pitcher Adam Smaglik walked Chin, walking in Ackerman.

Scheiber then came home on a passed ball for another run.

Then Ochoa reached first base on a passed ball after striking out.

This play allowed Stoltz to score.

Grafton Shorts then hit a sacrifice fly to centerfield, scoring Chin and cutting Jesuit’s lead at 6-5.

In the top of the sixth, the Marauders added an insurance run off a Arjan Johal home run to left field.

In the bottom of the fourth, Rockwell hit a single and moved to second base on a balk. Stoltz then hit a single to bring Rockwell home. Going into the fifth frame, Jesuit held the 5-1 lead.

Jesuit had its biggest inning in the top of the third, which resulted in a 5-0 advantage.

Davis had 10 hits in the contest.

Stoltz led with three hits total.

Houston McCray had two.

Ochoa, Shorts, Rockwell, Scheiber and Chin had one each.

Prior to first pitch, DHS baseball seniors were recognized.

Those seniors include Jaiden Temple, Scheiber, Benjamin Hanson, Rockwell, Shorts, Joby Antony, James Davis and Nico Dwyer.

The Sac-Joaquin Section is planning to release the playoff brackets for Divisions I-VII on Saturday afternoon on its Website — www.cifsjs.org.

Guevin and his team are looking forward to their playoff opportunity.

“This is what you play for,” Guevin said. “We’re super excited.

We play a really tough schedule during the regular season to prepare us for this. We have prepared ourselves to have an opportunity to beat the best teams in the area. We’ve shown we can do that when we play good baseball.

“We want to play the best baseball towards the end of the season and that’s what we’re doing.”

California housing affordability shrinks in first-quarter 2022 as home prices set record highs and interest rates rise LOS ANGELES — As California’s median home price set a new high in March and interest rates reached their highest levels in more than two years, the housing affordability outlook for Californians was diminished in the first quarter of 2022, the CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® (C.A.R.) said today.

The percentage of home buyers who could afford to purchase a median-priced, existing single-family home in California in first-quarter 2022 ticked down to 24 percent from 25 percent in the fourth quarter of 2021 and was down from 27 percent in the first quarter of 2021, according to C.A.R.’s Traditional Housing Affordability Index (HAI). The first-quarter 2022 figure is less than half of the affordability index peak of 56 percent in the first quarter of 2012.

C.A.R.’s HAI measures the percentage of all households that can afford to purchase a median-priced, single-family home in California. C.A.R. also reports affordability indices for regions and select counties within the state. The index is considered the most fundamental measure of housing well-being for home buyers in the state.

A minimum annual income of $158,000 was needed to qualify for the purchase of a $797,000 statewide median-priced, existing

single-family home in the first quarter of 2022. The monthly payment, including taxes and insurance on a 30-year, fixed-rate loan, would be $3,950, assuming a 20 percent down payment and an effective composite interest rate of 3.97 percent. The effective composite interest rate was 3.28 percent in fourth-quarter 2021 and 3.08 percent in first-quarter 2021.

With the median price of condominiums and townhomes reaching another record high in first-quarter 2022, affordability for condos and townhomes dropped from the previous quarter. Thirty-two percent of California households earned the minimum income to qualify for the purchase of a $640,000 median-priced condo/townhome in the first quarter of 2022, which required an annual income of $126,800 to make monthly payments of $3,170. The first quarter 2022 figure was down from 40 percent a year ago.

Compared with California, nearly half of the nation’s households could afford to purchase a $368,200 median-priced home, which required a minimum annual income of $73,200 to make monthly payments of $1,830. Nationwide affordability was down from 54 percent a year ago.
