Rhythm of Life

Cardiologists, patients work together to fight atrial fibrillation

September is National Atrial Fibrillation (AFib) Awareness Month, dedicated to educating people about the most common heart rhythm disorder. Washington Health Medical Group (WHMG) interventional cardiologist Nowwar Mustafa, MD, said it’s also a good time to share the importance of early detection and treatment to prevent complications including blood clots, stroke, heart failure and other life-limiting complications.

“Basically, atrial fibrillation is an irregular, rapid heartbeat in the heart’s upper chambers, or atria,” Dr. Mustafa explained. “The heart is designed to contract and relax in a regular beat, contracting to send blood from the atria to the lower heart chambers, called the ventricles, and then to the rest of the body. In AFib, instead of a regular beat, the atria quiver.”

“The heart has a natural pacemaker, called the sinus node,” he continued. “It generates electrical impulses that travel through the atria, causing them to contract and help in pumping blood into the ventricles. During an AFib episode, some of the blood entering the atria may not be pumped out, so it can pool there and clot. If they move, clots can lead to stroke or heart attack.”

Many people are living with AFib and don’t know it. Some have no symptoms, while others experience a rapid heartbeat, palpitations, feeling lightheaded, chest pain or pressure, shortness of breath

“AFib

can

or fatigue. AFib can be challenging to diagnose because symptoms can come and go, be mild and easily dismissed, or can be caused by or have symptoms similar to other conditions.

Dr. Mustafa begins his evaluation with a physical exam, discussing symptoms, family history and other medical issues. After that, he performs an electrocardiogram (ECG) in the office to check for an irregular rhythm. If that test doesn’t capture an AFib episode, a long-term portable ECG monitor can be used to record the heart’s activity for 24 hours or up to a month to determine how often episodes of AFib occur. Blood tests and imaging procedures, such as echocardiogram, can also be used to help manage AFib.

“AFib can be associated with or begin as a result of other problems,” Dr. Mustafa said. “Cardiac issues, such as coronary artery disease, heart failure or heart valve issues could result in AFib. Non-cardiac issues, including high blood pressure, sleep apnea, obesity, thyroid disease and diabetes, are also triggers.”

Once a diagnosis has been made, Dr. Mustafa discusses treatment options with each patient. Options can include medication, medical procedures and surgical procedures. And while AFib is common, the disorder is different for everyone, so treatment is as well. He takes a number of variables into account.

“Treatment depends on a number of factors, including the patient’s age, general health, what the expected outcome is, and the severity of the disease,” Dr. Mustafa said. “First, we look at rhythm control versus rate control. With rhythm control, we want to restore and maintain the heart’s normal sinus rhythm – beating, not quivering. Rate control focuses on managing the heart rate to keep it below 100 beats per minute. Once that decision is made, we look at treatment options. Management is different for each option.”

The next decision is often more important: whether or not treatment will include blood thinners to prevent the formation of clots by slowing the body’s clot-making process.

“This decision depends not only on the AFib, but on the other risk factors for stroke,” Dr. Mustafa explained. “People with AFib are at a five times greater risk for stroke than the general population on average. We quantify the risk of stroke based on a scoring system looking at factors including congestive heart failure, high blood pressure, age, diabetes, prior stroke, vascular disease and whether the patient is female. Surprisingly, women have a higher risk for stroke compared to men.

“Scores greater than two indicate a moderate to high risk for stroke, and blood thinners are definitely recommended,” he continued. “For low-risk, younger patients with no comorbidities, we may recommend aspirin therapy or no treatment. Other medications may be prescribed to slow the heart rate.”

Often, AFib can be safely controlled through medication and lifestyle

changes. Dr. Mustafa recommends his AFib patients quit smoking and drinking alcohol, along with a healthy diet combined with daily exercise. For some patients, however, other methods must be added. Cardioversion is a medical procedure used to restore a normal rhythm, while cardiac ablation is a minimally invasive procedure used to modify abnormal heart tissue that causes the irregular heartbeat. For extreme cases where patients can’t take blood thinners, a left atrial appendage closure procedure permanently closes off the pouch in the heart where blood clots often form.

“I tell my patients a cardioversion is sort of like what they saw in old movies when someone’s heart is shocked,” Dr. Mustafa said. “The procedure restores a normal rhythm but doesn’t do anything to prevent AFib from coming back again. For AFib ablation, we insert a catheter in the patient’s groin, then feed it up to the heart. After mapping the electrical system in the atria, we deliver energy to each site with a faulty electrical signal, disrupting the signal and restoring a normal heart rhythm. In both cardioversion and ablation, patients normally go home the same day.

“In each case, it’s a shared decision between the physician and the patient,” he added. “We want our patients to have the best outcome possible.”

Washington Health Offers RoboticAssisted Shoulder Joint Replacement

Pioneer Shoulder Surgeon is an Expert in Robot Technology

Washington Health is the first hospital in northern California to offer the new Mako SmartRobotics™ device for shoulder joint replacement surgery, using the same technology that has transformed knee and hip joint replacement.

World-renowned orthopedic surgeon John Costouros, MD, of Washington Health’s Institute for Joint Restoration and Research, is an expert in total shoulder joint replacement. He introduced the reverse total shoulder procedure in the United States more than 20 years ago. He has recently been certified on the Mako SmartRobotics™ device, a robot that guides precision and preparation of the shoulder joint for a more custom fit during total shoulder joint replacement.

Washington Health is among only six medical centers in the country to offer the new robotic-assisted surgery. “Shoulder replacement is the fastest growing area of joint surgery,” says Dr. Costouros, who is certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery, and trained at Stanford University, the University of California at San Francisco, and Harvard Medical School at Massachusetts General Hospital.

“What we learned from hip and knee replacements we’re now adapting to the shoulder, which is inherently a more complicated joint,” he adds.

Dr. Costouros underwent training in shoulder replacement technology in Europe, where the reverse total shoulder replacement technology was first developed prior to 2004 FDA approval in the United States. “The shoulder is the most complicated joint in the body, with a very complex anatomy and a dynamic interplay between bones and soft tissues, enabling the widest range of motion of any joint,” Dr. Costouros explains. “The complexity of the shoulder joint makes it ideal for use of this new technology.”

Advanced Technology, Better for Patients

Using a 3D CT scan, along with robotic and haptic (touch feedback) technology, Dr. Costouros utilizes the Mako SmartRobotics device to make the joint fit within 1 millimeter of accuracy and precision, better than the human eye. Assisting in reverse shoulder joint replacement, the robotic device aids surgeons by guiding their hand in the operating room based on

the surgical plan developed by the doctor prior to surgery.

The new technology’s software works with the scan of a patient’s shoulder to help the surgeon map how and where to prepare the bony surfaces to make the synthetic joint fit precisely to each person’s unique anatomy. The new robotic technology improves outcomes, surgical accuracy, longevity of the implant, and patient satisfaction; while also preserving bone and reducing pain.

“Before robots, we used precision tools, guides, augmented reality goggles, and other high-tech devices to execute the surgical plan,” notes Dr. Costouros, adding that the most important skill is always the surgeon’s experienced hand. “But now we have robots and haptic assistance to guide us even further.”

Rotator Cuff Repairs, Arthritis, Fractures

Additionally, this robot-assisted surgery will help those suffering from rotator cuff tear arthropathy, non-repairable rotator

“We’re moving forward in an age of precision medicine and

transformational

cuff tear with arthritis, complex fractures, and prior failed joint replacements.

“We’re moving forward in an age of precision medicine and transformational technology,” he explains. “It will only continue to improve outcomes and increase longevity of the artificial joint as the number of patients undergoing shoulder replacement procedures continues to grow.”

Dr. Costouros continues, “I’m privileged to work at one of the best sites in the world to offer this surgery. We’re contributing to developing this technology further and improving the patient experience for the future so that we can continue to relieve pain and suffering in many patients and improve their quality of life.”

OPINION

The ingredients of connection

By April Ramos

As so many immigrants leave their lives behind when coming to the United States, food is a daily tether that brings them back to familiarity and comfort. Within their own kitchens, the smells and tastes can remind them of a community and culture that was left behind for a number of reasons, but not forgotten.

The Bay Area is known for its unique and exciting food scene. With so many cultures in the East Bay we’re lucky to be a part of a region that is home to people from all

types of backgrounds.

Most people’s introduction to a new culture is food. But food opens the door to human connection.

As a child of Mexican immigrants, for most of my young life my family stayed well within the bounds of our own kitchen. My parents being in a new country was enough unfamiliarity for all of us, let alone trying to navigate another culture we didn't understand. But after many years of living in the

● Local League of Women Voters program focuses on income inequality

Submitted by Andrea Schacter, League of Women Voters of Fremont, Newark and Union City

Since 1920, the League of Women Voters has been an activist, grassroots organization whose leaders believed that the people of this country should play a critical role in democracy. We were founded by Carrie Chapman Catt in 1920, just six months before the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution was ratified, giving women the right to vote.

Throughout the years, the League has continued its dual purposes of education and advocacy. They study issues and develop positions in matters of public policy at all levels of government. This is their position on

government policy pertaining to Meeting Basic Human Needs.

The League of Women Voters believes that one of the goals of social policy in the US should be to promote self-sufficiency for individuals and families, and that the most effective social programs are those designed to prevent or reduce poverty. We support policies and programs designed to increase job opportunities and access to health insurance. Further, we believe it is critical to provide support services such as child care and transportation, and to provide opportunities for education and job training.

Further, the League believes that low-income assistance should be based on need, and that benefit levels should be sufficient enough to provide for adequate standards for food, clothing, shelter and medical care.

Regarding the basic human need for housing, the League’s position is that the federal government must ensure that our

As my dad struggled to handle chopsticks at his first sushi restaurant, the older man who had made our rolls shuffled from behind the counter with a handmade contraption of chopsticks, the chopstick wrapper and a rubber band, and handed it to my dad with a friendly chuckle and some gestures on how to use it.

At an Indian restaurant in San Lorenzo, Flavor of India, which I frequent so much that the woman who rings up my to-go orders can predict my meal, we exchange conversation as she explains how all

desserts that lay behind the glass counter are made and what Indian ingredients make them unlike anything in the US.

As a friend of mine is determined to not lose the Spanish she studied in college, she tries her best to order and converse with the restaurant workers whenever we end up in a taqueria.

Even within one household, food brings people who may not see much of each other together for a few minutes. With the passing of plates and pouring of each other’s drinks, conversations of their days are shared.

From within a household to a world apart, food is the welcome sign into a new culture, people and shared connection.

economic system functions so that people at all income levels have a decent home and a suitable living environment. State and local governments should assist by establishing agencies that aid and supplement the housing programs of the federal government and the private sector.

Government at all levels must make available sufficient funds for housing assistance programs. We believe, too, that citizen groups have a role to play in housing policy, by supporting legislation, activating non-profit sponsorship and developing public awareness of community need and housing discrimination.

An upcoming local program will address these issues. Dr. Anji Buckner-Capone, associate professor of Public Health at San José State University, will present research on the extreme disparities in local communities and the recently published, 6th Annual Silicon Valley Pain Index.

GATHERING IDEAS FOR NEXT YEAR’S GARDEN

Inspiration can bloom around the neighborhood or at botanical gardens

By Melinda Myers

Summer is a time when many gardeners begin making plans for new additions to next year’s gardens. If you’re already doing ongoing evaluations of your own plantings and may want to include tours of others’ gardens.

A walk around your neighborhood can provide inspiration and a chance to observe plants thriving in the same or similar conditions that exist in your landscape. Local garden tours allow you to take a closer look at both front and backyard gardens filled with plants, garden art and more.

Whether you tour alone or with a group of friends, it is a great opportunity to meet the gardener, gather ideas, exchange gardening secrets and get inspired. Many garden tours are sponsored by garden clubs, libraries, beautification groups and other similar organizations. Proceeds from the event usually support a worthy cause in the community. You’ll find local garden tours promoted online, in local publications, garden centers, botanical gardens and other similar venues.

The Garden Conservancy’s Open Days program is a one-of-a-kind self-guided garden tour. Participating gardens are located around the country in small and large lots that feature a variety of styles, plants and features. A listing of the Open Days gardens, their location and dates for each garden is listed on their website.

Visit your local or nearby public botanic gardens and arboreta. They feature plants in gardens and natural settings with similar growing conditions to nearby home gardens. They often feature new and unique varieties, traditional favorites and garden designs.

All-America Selections’ (AAS) Display Gardens are another valuable resource for gardeners. AAS is a non-profit orga-

nization that trials and evaluates plants for outstanding qualities suitable for the home garden. They have been helping gardeners grow award-winning flowers and vegetables since 1932.

New never-before-sold plant varieties bred for home gardens are planted, observed and evaluated at various trial gardens throughout North America, located at public gardens, seed companies or universities. The potential plant introduction is observed and its performance evaluated throughout the growing season. Volunteer judges rate the plants on improvements in characteristics such as aesthetics, performance and productivity as well as pest and disease tolerance. A plant must have significantly improved qualities to be considered for an AAS award.

Display gardens feature the newest AAS winners in a well-maintained setting. There are nearly 200 display gardens in the United States and Canada located in public botanic gardens and arboreta, municipality gardens, garden retailers, university gardens and more. Some locations also offer related educational opportunities, open houses or field days during the growing season.

Take some time to enjoy and evaluate your gardens. Then set aside some time to visit local gardens for ideas and inspiration.

Local transportation updates

● Big shifts coming for Bay Area riders

By staff

Richmond Bridge path restrictions begin in October

Bike and pedestrian access on the Richmond–San Rafael Bridge is set to shrink this fall. Starting in October, the Bay Conservation and Development Commission will begin a three-year pilot that limits the path to Thursday afternoons through Sundays. On weekdays, the lane will be repurposed as a breakdown shoulder and high-occupancy vehicle lane.

The 15-2 vote came after seven hours of public testimony, with advocates pointing out that 88% of the 350 public

comments opposed the change. While a free weekday shuttle will operate, critics warn that riders with disabilities or those traveling overnight will lose access. Advocacy groups like Bike East Bay argue the decision undercuts the agency’s mission of providing “maximum feasible public access” to the shoreline.

AC Transit rolls out new network

AC Transit’s long-planned “Realign” redesign went live on Sunday, Aug. 24 changing 104 bus routes to reflect lower ridership and a $41.5 million deficit. The overhaul includes replacing lines like the 10 with the new line 9, which operates between San Leandro and Union City BART stations giving riders access to Bay Fair, Hayward and South Hayward BART stations with 15-minute frequency. Bus routes in neighborhoods like the

Bayside development in West Newark have lessened its frequency to 30 minutes. Transit advocates warn that these cuts create “transit deserts” and could discourage ridership at a time when the state is pushing to reduce car trips by 25% by 2030.

Alameda County wants your input

The Alameda County Transportation Commission (CTC) is inviting residents to help shape the county’s transportation future. A countywide survey— open through October 2025—asks people to share experiences and priorities whether they bike, drive, walk or ride transit. Responses will feed into the Countywide Transportation Plan. Materials are available in English, Spanish and Simplified Chinese, and residents can also request presenta-

tions or submit feedback through the CTC website.

BART adds Tap-and-Go payments Riders no longer need a Clipper card to board BART. As of Aug. 20, passengers can tap a contactless credit or debit card—or use Apple Pay or Google Pay—directly at fare gates. The new “Tap and Ride” system also comes with a 30-minute grace period that eliminates the costly “excursion fare” if you exit the same station where you entered. BART cautions riders to avoid “card clash” by tapping only one card or setting a default in mobile wallets. For now, only full-fare adult rides are eligible for Tap and Ride, meaning youth, seniors and low-income riders will still need Clipper. Transfer discounts between agencies also remain unavailable until a broader regional rollout of “Clipper 2.0.”

Swiss Club welcomes competitors for Schwingfest and celebrates 100 years

to preserve Swiss traditions, provide a social gathering place, and share the richness of Swiss culture with the community.”

Although the chalet-style Swiss Park building now sits across from NewPark Mall and 880 Freeway, it has its roots in the California dairy industry and Swiss immigrant culture. “Our club was there for a long time,” says Steiner. (The building itself marks 90 years in 2025.) “Before the freeway and before surrounding development. So it’s kind of a little remaining oasis here in the middle of development around it.”

Weekend activity starts Friday night with an “outsiders’ dance” to welcome out-of-state and overseas guests who have traveled to Newark for the celebration. The main event is Saturday’s competition. “Saturday is really the highlight of the weekend activities,” says Steiner. “We have a number of wrestlers who are coming directly from Switzerland to compete at this event as well as our local representatives.”

This year, 15 wrestlers will come from Switzerland. Competitors will vie for an intricately decorated championship bell presented at an award ceremony in the evening. Swiss food will be available for purchase throughout the day.

Steiner grew up in Southern California and his roots in California Swiss Clubs go back 50 years. “I participated in the Swiss wrestling…when I was a boy and the clubs

from up north, including Aelpler Gruppe, would faithfully make the journey to Imperial Valley year after year.” He currently lives in the East Bay and has been with Aelpler Gruppe for about five years.

This year’s fest honors the history of Swiss immigrants with a special 200-page book, The History and Families of Aelpler Gruppe Swiss Club, compiled by club member Patricia Wipfli Schaffarczyk.

“Her relatives immigrated directly from Switzerland and are life members of the club themselves,” says Steiner.

“So she has compiled a several hundred page history of the Swiss Club, people who founded the club and had continuous participation in it. The histories of the families and old photographs that are going to make this book really really interesting. That is something that has been prepared specifically for this 100 year event.”

The book is available for pre-order online and for purchase at the event for $35. Steiner says, “It was a labor of love for sure.”

Sunday finishes the weekend with a concert from bands playing traditional Swiss music: The Kapelle Grimm-Suter from Switzerland. The group, along with SF-based Alphorn Players and Schwyzerorgeli, will also be playing on Saturday. “The instruments [the groups] play are very traditional in terms of what they are,” says Steiner. “[Schwyzerorgeli] are accordions. There

are Alphorns, which are 10-feet long. Where the sound comes from is about 10 feet away from where the musician blows into it.”

During the rest of the year, the club keeps up a steady calendar of dances, Jass (cards), and other social events. “The hair is getting a little grey, needless to say,” notes Steiner, “But it’s always a very good time for everyone involved.”

Looking toward the next 100 years for the club, he reflects, “The heartfelt connection starts to thin out with generations. My parents are Swiss immigrants so I have a deep root and deep heart for my cultural legacy. But my own sons were just not as interested as I am. They certainly know it’s important to me.”

He continues, “But moving into the 21st century, certainly I am adamant, and the people of my generation are very adamant, and aim as we have done successfully over the hundred years to really keep this tradition going. It means a lot to us, and it’s an all-volunteer organization. But there continues to be steady participation. And we encourage the younger generation to participate as well.”

Union City resolution calls for federal recognition of Muwékma

Ohlone

● City supports wider calls for official recognition of long-overlooked Bay Area tribe

By David R. Newman

On July 22, the Union City Council voted 5-0 in support of a resolution urging federal recognition of the Muwékma Ohlone Tribe. Councilmember Jaime Patino, who brought the issue before council, said, “This was a long time coming. I’m glad we did the right thing.”

While several official land acknowledgements currently exist amongst local municipalities and academic institutions, including Chabot College and CSU East Bay, this is the first time a Bay Area city has legally pledged their allegiance to the Ohlone people, sending a powerful message to Washington, D.C. Specifically, the resolution “urges action from Congress, the White House, the Department of the Interior, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs.”

Several friends and allies of the Muwékma Ohlone Tribe were on hand, sharing stories which resonated with Mayor Singh and his fellow councilmembers. Aaron He, a student at Bellarmine College Preparatory and founder of the Indigenous Justice Coalition (IJC), was pleased with the turnout. “This is just part of a broader movement that is gaining momentum across the Bay Area from citizens and municipalities in support of federal recognition.”

Thanks to outreach efforts by the IJC, other cities like Livermore, Palo Alto and Concord are now considering the matter. “We have been ignored and betrayed by local politicians for so long that we have lost faith in our political institutions,” said Charlene Nijmeh, chairwoman for the Muwékma Ohlone Tribe. “But now, because of the actions of the mayor and councilmembers of Union City, as well as the determination of the IJC, we have hope that a new generation of leaders is emerging in the Bay Area.”

The history of the Muwékma Ohlone people and their fight for federal recog-

nition is complex. Over 10,000 years ago, roughly 50 aboriginal tribes with related languages inhabited the region from San Francisco down to the Salinas Valley, and are collectively known as the “Ohlone.” “Muwékma Ohlone” is a contemporary term (Muwékma translates to “the People” in the traditional Chochenyo language) for descendants of the Verona Band, who were granted federal recognition in the early 20th century.

In 1925, UC Berkeley anthropologist Alfred Kroeber falsely declared the Muwékma Ohlone extinct. And the following year, Lafayette A. Dorrington, commissioner for the Sacramento Indian Agency, was tasked with providing Congress a list of the 134 Indian tribes that had been promised land, including the Verona Band. He completely dropped the matter, and so these tribes disappeared from federal records.

“It’s political warfare,” asserts Alan Leventhal, a retired archeologist and ethnohistorian at San Jose State University. “Historically, California Indians were not considered citizens, so they have not been afforded the normative constitutional processes that are the rights of all Americans.”

Leventhal has been studying and assisting the Muwékma Ohlone for over

40 years, and has been deeply involved in documenting their story. He cites the importance of being federally recognized: “First off, it legitimizes the history and heritage of the tribe.” It also gives the tribe access to federal funds and services, including healthcare, education and housing, all managed by the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA).

Petitioning the BIA is one way to achieve federal recognition, but can be a lengthy process. There are seven criteria that need to be met, all requiring extensive documentation. Leventhal is confident that the Muwékma Ohlone meet all of the requirements, but is frustrated with a historically racist and politically driven bureaucracy. “They told us it would take them 24 years before they could look at our documents,” he says.

An Act of Congress or court order can also grant recognition. For the past few decades Leventhal and his academic colleagues have been attempting to raise awareness of the Muwékma Ohlone’s plight throughout the community by making school presentations, hosting art exhibits, contributing scientific articles and educating city governments.

Similarly, social justice groups like the IJC are keeping the cause alive

through political outreach, in the hopes that one day, the right person in the right place will take up the cause in Washington, D.C. “If the senators and congressional members see that the citizens are behind this movement, well, they have to listen to their constituents,” says He. “We have the momentum.”

“The Union City Council’s resolution in support of federal recognition for the Muwékma Ohlone Tribe is a powerful acknowledgment of our People’s enduring presence,” says Monica V. Arellano, former vice chairwoman for the Muwékma Ohlone Tribe, Ohlone cultural bearer and language keeper, and Verona Band descendant. “As we say in our beautiful Chochenyo language, Makkin Mak Nommo—we are still here. We have never left our aboriginal homelands, and it is time for the San Francisco Bay Area and the United States to finally recognize that truth.”

The visitor center at Coyote Hills Regional Park has displays on how the Ohlone people lived historically, and on Oct. 5, 2025, the park will hold the annual ‘Gathering of Ohlone Peoples’ which educates on indigenous stories, foods and games. Learn more at: ebparks.org/parks/coyote-hills.

Walk in the Hills benefits Alzheimer’s Association

● Masonic Homes and Acacia Creek host awareness event at Union City campus

Submitted by Emily Limón

The Masonic Homes of California and Acacia Creek Senior Living Communities invite Tri-City residents to join the fight to end Alzheimer’s by participating in their Sept. 13 Walk in the Hills to benefit the Alzheimer’s Association. This walk is the first of its kind in Union City—participants will walk through the Masonic Homes and Acacia Creek campus in the hills above Mission Boulevard.

“This is a pivotal moment in the fight against Alzheimer’s. There are now treatments that can change the course of the disease,” said Terry Quigley, president and CEO of Masonic Homes of California and Acacia Creek Senior Living Communities. “We hope that everyone in our community can join us by starting a team to help the Alzheimer’s Association raise awareness and funds for families facing the disease today, take more steps toward treatments and finally ending this disease.”

On the day, participants honor those affected by Alzheimer’s with a Promise Garden ceremony. Walkers will carry flowers of various colors, each color representing their personal connection to the disease.

Local community organizations are acting as event sponsors. Washington Health is a premium sponsor, Tri-CED is sponsoring the Kid Zone and Morrison Living is participating with in-kind

donations of snacks and water. Representatives from local police and fire departments have also committed their attendance and participation at the Walk in the Hills.

More than seven million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease—a leading cause of death in the United States. Additionally, nearly 12 million family members and friends provide care to people living with Alzheimer’s and other dementias. In California, there are almost 720,000 people living with the disease and 1,396,000 family caregivers.

Families and leashed dogs are welcome at the walk. RSVP preferred at HelloMasonicHomes.org/walk

Coastal Cleanup Day returns

Sept.

20

● Volunteer registration for the citywide event opened Aug. 20

By Panashe Matemba-Mutasa

Fremont residents are invited to roll up their sleeves and join Coastal Cleanup Day 2025 on Saturday, Sept. 20. From 9am to noon, volunteers will spread out across sites citywide to clear litter and debris from local creeks, parks and waterways, helping protect both the community and the coast.

This year’s cleanup includes multiple volunteer opportunities, with sites at Central Park, Crandall Creek, Tule Ponds, Hastings Street, Delaware Drive, Almond Avenue and more. Each site has a set capacity, and registration opened Wednesday, Aug. 20 at 6am. Spots are expected to fill quickly.

A highlight of this year’s event is the statewide “Trashure Hunt.” Special items will be hidden at cleanup sites, and lucky volunteers who find them can redeem prizes. Fremont will host at least one of these hidden treasures, giving participants extra incentive to keep their eyes open while cleaning.

In addition to standard volunteer shifts, the City is recruiting Sorting Stew-

ards—trained helpers who will learn the City’s new sorting system and assist in separating trash, recyclables and compostables. Stewards must be at least 13 years old and will receive hands-on training before the event.

For those unable to join on Sept. 20, do-it-yourself cleanups can be completed any time in September. Residents are encouraged to collect neighborhood litter, record data using the Clean Swell app, and have their efforts count toward statewide goals.

Union City teen makes waves in renowned golf tournament

● Aston Lim is the youngest player to reach match play in the 2025 USGA Amateur Championship

Vidyuth Sridhar

For Union City rising sophomore and golf star Aston Lim, this summer has been anything but a break. But as the youngest player to make the second round of the 2025 United States Golf Association’s (USGA) Amateur Championship, his effort has been paying off.

Each morning, Lim heads out to Alameda’s Corica Park Golf Course. Armed with just his clubs and a tripod stand, he practices by himself until sunset, working on everything from putting to short shots and the accuracy of his drives. But the grind doesn’t stop there. At home, he’s watching drone flyovers of his next tournament’s course, studying yardage books, and now—with California Online Public Schools in session—attending classes.

Lim has had an extensive amateur career, including top-five finishes in US Kids Golf local tours, a Southern Alameda County Middle Athletic League Middle School Championship, and winning the American Junior Golf Association’s (AJGA) All-Star Invitational at Quail Creek Country Club.

But his road to the USGA Amateur Championship began on July 2, with an initial qualifier at Emerald Valley Golf Club. There, Lim sunk 20 and 30-foot putts en route to a 71 (-1) score and spot in the final qualifier at The Club at Ruby Hill in Pleasanton. Amidst 47 golfers from across the world, a strong 68 (-4) performance tied Lim for 5th place, securing a championship berth.

Though it was his first time playing at the Championship’s host location— this year being the Olympic Club in San Francisco—Lim felt confident during practice.

“In practice, I played with Jackson Koivun and Ben James, who are the number one and two amateurs in the world, so that was a really cool experience,” Lim said. “Playing with them let me know that I’m at that level, and I’m able to play as well as they do.”

In the initial Stroke Play round, Lim’s optimism was tested. Golfers played the Club’s Lake and Ocean courses, seeking to notch a low-enough combined score to make the Top-64 cut. Amidst a field of 312 top-ranked high school, collegiate

and adult players, Lim’s relative youth meant his drives were largely underpowered. However, consistent accuracy on his shots and putts drove him to finish 71-71–142 (+2), tied for 33rd.

But in the ensuing Match Play round, where a golfer competes in one head-tohead round against another player, Lim’s run ended. Facing SEC-All Freshman golfer Billy Davis on the Lake Course, Lim was unable to keep pace. Though he was scoring two-over par (equalling his Stroke Play score), Davis’s consistent birdies propelled him to play two-under-par. Ultimately, Lim lost after the 15th hole, when Davis’s then-four stroke lead became mathematically insurmountable.

“Billy played really well—I think he only missed one fairway in the whole round,” Lim said. “I just didn’t hit as many fairways as I did in [Stroke Play], which didn’t set me up for a lot of birdies.”

Despite his early exit, Lim appreciated the chance to directly evaluate, and validate, his performance against the best of amateur golf.

“I’m actually a really good player, and able to keep up with the rest of the amateurs in the world,” Lim said. “There’s a lot of momentum going into my next event.”

Indeed, his golf-filled summer isn’t over. This week, Lim competed in the AJGA’s NW Arkansas Junior. There, he hoped to rack up AJGA points to help him qualify for his dream event—The Junior Players Championship at TPC Sawgrass. He also, although too young to be offi-

cially recruited, hoped to keep turning collegiate-coaches’ heads.

Union City hosts Mutt Strut 2025

● Day means fantastic fun, furry friends and philanthropy

Submitted by Arthur Barinque

Attention all pet lovers and their four-legged friends! The New Haven Schools Foundation (NHSF) invites the community to join the tail-wagging fun and support the students of the New Haven Unified School District at the Mutt Strut 2025. Set against the stunning backdrop of the historic Masonic Homes in Union City, this year’s event promises a day filled with community spirit and canine companionship.

Mark your calendars for Saturday, Sept. 20, and take advantage of Early Bird Pricing available until Sept. 5.

The day begins with registration at 8am under the shade of majestic trees. The community will mingle with dignitaries, entrepreneurs, city leaders and their furry companions over coffee and breakfast burritos. At 9am, Union City Mayor Gary Singh will kick off the Mutt Strut and be joined by New Haven Unified students who will get the group warmed up with light stretching.

Then everyone will take a scenic walk, run or jog with their dog along a route that meanders through the picturesque hillside. Designated lookout points

along the route and at Acacia Creek give breathtaking views of the Tri-Cities and the Bay. For those who prefer a leisurely pace, the festivities continue at the park at the base of the hill.

After the parade, the fun is just beginning. New this year—dog yoga! The Hungry Tailz Rescue will lead a dog yoga demonstration. DJ Bennett will play tunes, and Boswick the Clown will provide entertainment. Attendees can capture memorable moments by taking selfies with Pluto, Goofy, Garfield and friends.

The program kicks off with the “Pet Trick” contest, where pets can show off their skills on playground equipment.

The annual Costume Contest promises

to be a crowd-pleaser, along with other engaging games like the hot dog eating contest, with options for dogs of all sizes.

While the event is all about barks, laughs and fun, its true impact lies in supporting local education. All proceeds from the Mutt Strut directly benefit programs that enhance activities and educational opportunities for students and teachers in the New Haven Unified School District. Last May, New Haven Schools Foundation awarded over $255,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors and $126,000 in teacher grants.

Mission Restoration Committee holds benefit gala marking its 50th year

● Funds raised will go to repairing exterior of historical landmark

Submitted by Committee for Restoration of the Mission San José

This year’s “Meet Me at the Mission” benefit on Saturday, Sept. 20, celebrates the golden anniversary of the Committee for Restoration of the Mission San José (CRMSJ). Organist Ronald McKean and the Mission San José Orchestra will be the centerpiece for an evening of food, wine, fundraising and building community.

“We are a secular nonprofit formed in 1975 initially to raise funds for the authentic reconstruction of the adobe

church, which was completed in 1985,” says Gary Dorighi, current president of CRMSJ. “And as a part of this year’s event, we will recognize the early members who stepped up to serve CRMSJ.”

This dedicated group of local citizens includes notables such as Lila Bringhurst, Pauline McIvor, Regena Dennie, Dolores Ferenz, Sister Mary Raymond Carmody and Jim Starkovich. These visionaries, with many others, raised funds and managed the authentic reconstruction of the original 1809 church. After 10 years of effort, the vision was accomplished; and Mission San Jose’s adobe church was dedicated in 1985.

The committee has continued for 50 years to raise funds and be a historic resource for numerous preservation projects. These include the seismic retrofit of the 1809 missionaries’ living

quarters which today houses a museum, the foundation and exterior repairs of the museum structure, along with the preservation of historic textiles and fine art on display. The Mission San Jose is recognized as a California Historic Landmark and registered as a National Historic Place. It is the oldest still-standing adobe structure in Alameda County. Fremont was incorporated in 1956 from five townships. But in 1797, long before any of those villages existed, when only the native Ohlone peoples lived here, Old Mission San Jose was established. These communities that became Fremont grew up around the Old Mission. Each year, the mission hosts thousands of visitors from around the world and provides educational field trips for scores of school children from all over the greater Bay Area.

FOR THE WEEK OF SEPTEMBER

TRI-CITY STARGAZER

BY GEORGIA NICOLS www.georgianicols.com.

All Signs: Saturn is associated with restrictions and increased responsibilities. It can represent loss or authority figures. Saturn’s journey through our chart is where we have to pay close attention. It represents what we really want in life and actually helps us get it! (Most of us are out of touch with what we truly want.) Saturn entered Aries in May for the first time since 19961999. This week, Saturn turns retrograde and slips back into Pisces to stay until mid-Febuary 2026. The last time this occurred was at the end of 1996. Let’s see what’s happening right now.

Aries the Ram (March 21-April 20):

You’re starting on a new journey that will bring about many changes, perhaps even in your daily wardrobe. This is because you’re stepping into new territory, as you leave behind the things that you had to let go of in the last three years—people, places, possessions and even countries. Part of this new journey means you’re going to reinvent yourself by 2032. Older Aries natives might recall that they were in a similar position back around 1996 (give or take a year). At that time, you reinvented yourself by around 2003.

Taurus the Bull (April 21-May 20):

You are downsizing and streamlining your world, going through closets, cupboards, garages and storage areas getting rid of what you no longer need. (This is tough because Taurus is the collector of the zodiac.) You might also leave friendships, jobs, relationships and activities that no longer resonate with you. Basically, you’re getting ready to enter a new path in the next few years. But not yet. Older Taurus natives can remember that back around 1996, you let go of things to get ready for 1999, which was a pivotal year.

Gemini the Twins (May 21-June 20):

You have enjoyed some recent admiration in the eyes of your peers, and rightly so. But now you’re dealing with the fallout of your success, which is why you need to find that delicate balance of relating to friends and groups, while maintaining

your own identity. You have always loved an adoring peanut gallery, but at this stage in your life, you don’t want to be subsumed. And for those who can recall, it was also what you were juggling back in 1996 before you started to downsize around 1999.

Cancer the Crab (June 21-July 21):

This is a powerful time for you! You’re at the peak of a 30-year cycle, which is a time of harvest for your sign. You are proud of your achievements! It’s also a time of great responsibilities. Naturally, because your achievements are the result of your past efforts, it’s also a time of some failures. That’s inevitable. Let it go. This is a time of leadership and a chance to make a big impression on your world. Some of you can think back to around 1996, and recall the achievements that made you proud back then.

Leo the Lion (July 22-August 22):

This is an exciting time of preparation in your life, when you’re getting ready (whether you know it or not) for your time of harvest that will peak around 2028. That time will be the culmination of your efforts since 2012 and it will be the peak of a 30-year cycle dating back to 1996. This is why now is the time to take courses, or travel, or get more life experience. Grab every chance to hone or improve your skills, so you will be the best that you can be!

Virgo the Virgin (August 23-September 22):

Currently, you’re in a similar position to what occurred in your life back around 1996. Back then, you might have been forced to get along with less. Recently, you might have left a job, a relationship, something that gave you support. This means you have to rely on yourself. You might also find yourself forced to deal with someone else’s values and live with them without destroying your own individuality. As such, this is a time of major transformation. Older Virgos can look back to around 1996 to see a comparison.

Libra the Scales (September 23-October 22):

At this stage in your life, you might find your relations with spouses and close friends challenging. Some relationships will end. However, most will make adjustments and endure. This year is also the culmination of something that began around 2010. You might have set off in a new direction. Then between 2015-2018, you had a job change or a residential move. Increased family obligations around 2018-2020 were also a factor. Now you want to make goals about your external world.

Scorpio the Scorpion (October 23-November 21):

Your work and your health are a focus for you. Your work is another challenge for you at this time, because you have heavy responsibilities and situations that might

feel overwhelming. In actuality, you are preparing for a time in about two years, when you will step out into the world and say “I’m here!” Then you will be more concerned with your external goals, and focus on what’s happening “out there” as opposed to what’s happening “in here.” It will be a big shift.

Sagittarius the Archer (November 22-December 21):

Saturn in your fellow Fire Sign is now supportive to you. It will help you prepare for anything important, which is why you’ll accomplish what you want. Cooperation with others will be excellent. You can even build up your physical strength! Many of you will win recognition, while others will impress bosses with their diligence. Nevertheless, this is also a stage in your life when you might wonder what you want to be. What should you do to express your talents? Older Sagittarians might harken back to around 1996 for further clarity.

Capricorn the Goat (December 22-January 19):

You have traditional values. You like security and well-planned endings. As such, a stable home environment is important! This is why you want to secure a refuge that you can count on for yourself and your loved ones. Because of this, many of you are contemplating major repairs and renovations, or making changes, especially if it’s been something that you’ve been “putting up with.” (Like buying a new mattress.) If you are ultimately going to do it—do it! Some of you might have increased responsibilities with a parent.

Aquarius the Water Bearer (January 20-February 18):

Things are uncertain for you at this time because your everyday mental patterns and attitudes are being affected. In order to “see” your daily environment with more clarity, you’ll need to change your daily environment. Therefore, many of you will undergo residential moves, job changes or both. The result will be that you will be engaged in a more alive way with your daily world! You won’t be coasting on automatic. This is a time of intense learning for you.

Pisces the Fish (February 19-March 20):

Saturn is currently in your Money House, which can make you experience financial loss. Control over your material possessions seems to be slipping. The key is not to let fear or financial insecurity take hold of you. At a deeper level, it’s time for you to figure out what your values are. Whatever is happening externally will prompt you to discover your real needs, which might be quite different from what you think they are. Don’t get hung up on the disparity of what you think you should want, and what you really do want.

SPORTS Football season ramps up

● Girls and boys’ football mark the start of high school sports

By April Ramos

School is back in session and 2025’s football season is in full swing. The greater Tri-City area high schools had their first taste of the season as teams debuted their skills in their first games of the school year over the weekend.

Each team is starting fresh from the 2024 season and has an opportunity to start over if their previous season was lackluster. However, some teams are coming back from a monumental season.

Moreau Catholic High School had a historic 2024 season winning the State Championship game with a final score of 42-8. But even with this win under his belt, head coach Keith Minor is focused on this upcoming season. “Last year was last year, you got to put it behind you and put the work in this year. No one cares what you did [right] in the past; it’s about ‘What have you done for me lately,’” said Minor. Although the team has lost many players, including their quarterback, Minor is confident in the defensive skill of this year’s team.

Another team who will be entering the season with a different type of fresh start is Newark Memorial High School. This season’s roster will be the first to get their cleats into the school’s newly redone turf. All of the Cougars’ 2024 football games were on the opposition’s turf as the track and field was being reconstructed. With a majority of the 2024 roster being seniors, the team will also have to adjust to new player dynamics.

In Union City, James Logan is starting their second year with head coach James Barnes. Last year, the Colts qualified for the Division 3 NCS football champions tournament, but met an unfortunate end in the quarterfinal game losing to Heritage High School with a score of 34-0. In Barnes’s first year of coaching he said, “James Logan only plays for one thing—that’s playoffs or state titles.” It’s apparent that the team’s goal will be to stay in the game longer than last year. For more on Barnes’s first season, check out our 2024 article: tricityvoice.com/ james-logans-new-football-coach-aimsfor-state-title/ Boys’ football isn’t the only football ramping up this season. The girls’ flag football presence is only expanding in its third season. After the sport was

approved in February 2023 by the California Interscholastic Federation, high schools all around the Bay Area were quick to form teams and compete.

Castro Valley’s girls’ flag football team has already shown that their team is ready for the 2025 season. In their first two games of the school year, the Lady Trojans dominated Emerald and Camplindo High Schools with final scores of 52-0 and 42-0, respectively.

Boys’ football isn’t the only football ramping up this season. The girls’ flag football presence is only expanding in its third season. After the sport was approved in February 2023 by the California Interscholastic

Federation, high schools all around the Bay Area were quick to form teams and compete.

San Leandro High School, one of the first schools in the area to form a team, looks to be on a toss up season. Last year the Pirates had a tough year coming out with 2-7 in league and 5-9 overall. In their last two games, the team took a loss from James Logan, but managed a 20-0 win against KIPP King demonstrating that a comeback could be possible for the Pirates.

As mentioned before, newcomers from Union City’s James Logan High School may prove to be the next team to watch. In their first games ever, the Colts faced seasoned teams San Leandro and Arroyo High Schools and sealed their games winning both, with final scores of 12-8 and 13-6, respectively.

Unless You Take Action To Protect Your Property, It May Be Sold At A Public Sale. If You Need An Explanation Of The Nature Of The Proceedings Against You, You Should Contact A Lawyer. On 09/23/2025 at 12:00PM , First American Title Insurance Company as the duly appointed Trustee under and pursuant to Deed of Trust recorded on August 18, 2023 as Document Number 2023094535 of official records in the Office of the Recorder of Alameda County, California, executed by: 41841 Albrae LLC, as Trustor, Foxit Software Incorporated, as Beneficiary, Will Sell At Public Auction To The Highest Bidder For Cash (payable at time of sale in lawful money of the United States, by cash, a cashier’s check drawn by a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association, or savings bank specified in section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state). At: At the Fallon Street emergency exit to the Alameda County Courthouse, 1225 Fallon St., Oakland, CA, all right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by it under said Deed of Trust in the property situated in said County, California describing the land therein: See Exhibit “A” attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein The property heretofore described is being sold “as is”. The street address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 41841 Albrae Street, Fremont, CA 94538. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to-wit: $2,811,787.10 (Estimated) Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located and more than three months have elapsed since such recordation. Notice To Potential Bidders: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. Notice To Property Owner: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may visit the website below using the file number assigned to this case. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. Notice To Tenant: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call (858) 410-2154, or visit this internet website [iSee Link Below], using the file number assigned to this case [TS 1262492] to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-25-1014322NJ. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 619-645-7711, or visit this internet website http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-25-1014322NJ to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the

trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. NOTICE TO PROSPECTIVE OWNEROCCUPANT: Any prospective owner-occupant as defined in Section 2924m of the California Civil Code who is the last and highest bidder at the trustee’s sale shall provide the required affidavit or declaration of eligibility to the auctioneer at the trustee’s sale or shall have it delivered to QUALITY LOAN SERVICE CORPORATION by 5 p.m. on the next
