HELLO SANTEE! This issue will be hitting homes right before Thanksgiving, one of the most obvious times of the year to stop and be grateful. I am never shy about sharing all my blessings in life. From my amazing family, my rewarding job, this outstanding community, my endless opportunities - it’s clear that everyday I have a multitude of reasons why I am able to remain thankful. What does that mean for you, my readers? You get to see a few of the things I am thankful for in this issue!

So what are more things I am grateful for in this unique line of work, representing business in town? I’m grateful for every business in town, regardless of if they are a chamber member or have yet to join us. Working for a membership based organization is one of the easiest ways to put yourself behind the scenes and allow the much-deserving stars of the show to take the stage. In this case, the stars I refer to are our local businesses, of course. When they aren’t feeling front and center, you give them a queue from the side, remain behind the curtain, and adjust the spotlight to allow them to shine brighter. Small business is a big star for any local economy and ours is no exception, leading to an easy showcase for our cover. Check out more on the owners behind the Furology and Purrology shops in town on Page 8, or my go-to coffee shop on Page 17, or one of the most well-known automotive repair families in town on Page 21. Have more suggestions you’d like to see mentioned? Let us know by emailing us at magazine@santeechamber.com I would be remiss if I also didn’t mention someONE I am thankful for… not just now, but since I started working for the Chamber in 2014. In 2012, Arli Wolfson (alongside then CEO, John Olsen) was the original digital creator of The Santee Magazine. When I onboarded with the Chamber, Arli didn’t just become a work colleague, but a true friend. Her countless hours of making this magazine the successful publication it is today has been instrumental to our chamber, local businesses and our community at large. She retired from this project after a decade of service, producing her last issue with us in the Spring of 2022. Arli, we thank you for everything you’ve done!

CHAIR'S MESSAGE It is almost Thanksgiving and in spirited tradition, it is THE time to reflect on this year. Of course we should ponder the concept of gratitude more than once a year. However, this time of year we get an excuse, a holiday, to stop and celebrate it all.

For me, I am super thankful for the journey. As I reflect on my role this year with the Chamber of Commerce I am thankful for the moments and the people that made up the journey. I am so fond of the dream team that is our board of directors and staff. I am proud to be part of this business community in my hometown. I am grateful that I get to participate and support our local businesses, our local charities, and our local events.

After we celebrate the journey this far… we will continue on this ride with the best intentions. For the Chamber of Commerce, we will continue to support local business for the betterment of the community. The chamber has great plans for the year ahead and to that I raise a glass and repeat “Onward and Upward!”, a saying I first heard from a former employer whom I deeply respect, quoting C.S. Lewis. I look forward to the continued support of this organization and remain thankful for the relationships that have been built from it.

Thank You 2022 Chairman's Circle Members Community Champions

Community Conveners

I hope you get to enjoy your loved ones this Thanksgiving even if you can’t be with all of them in person. For those that are working over the holidays, thank you for holding down the fort.

With a thankful heart and a positive outlook—I wish you a Happy Thanksgiving Santee!

DOGS ARE NOT OUR WHOLE LIVES, B UT T H EY M A K E O U R LIVES WH O LE Those of us who are fortunate enough to share our lives with pets would definitely agree! Our pets can help us manage loneliness, reduce our stress, make us laugh; the list could go on. When we are privileged enough to enjoy these benefits, our lives become more fulfilled and complete.

From a very young age, I’ve had a love and fondness for all sorts of animals.

This love and passion grew with me, and I knew that my life would be spent working with animals and enjoying their company.

I have been fortunate to spend the last three decades working in the pet industry, with half of that time in the pet grooming world. This fulfilling experience gave me what I was looking for - caring for animals in a way other than the clinical medical setting. This love of grooming, creating beauty and comfort for our most beloved companions, gave me a desire to start my own business where I could share my passion and knowledge with others. I knew that I wanted to create an environment and experience that was better for pets, their owners and employees who shared my passion.

In 2017 FURology Pet SPaw was born out of this passion. Early on, it was important that the business had a focus or mission statement to guide this belief. It was decided that FURology should be defined as “the practice of promoting cleanliness, comfort and good grooming for all furred companions”. This idea still guides us today, even through our growth and expansion. It is why we do what we do, and how we develop our operations. We are proud to offer professional grooming services and extensive knowledge to help people maintain their pet’s needs. All of this is done in an environment that was created to provide a low stress experience.

To achieve this goal, we offer separate

rooms for the different aspects of the grooming process to reduce anxiety and stress. We have chosen to use products that are designed specifically for a variety of pet needs, administered by a highly skilled team of pet lovers. By creating this specialized environment, using tools designed for different grooming needs, and incorporating equipment and products designed for the pet industry, we are able to provide the best possible experience for our FURology friends.

Most pets will require some sort of professional attention during their lives whether it be for medical reasons or professional grooming. Both types of care are essential for a pet's overall health and well being. However, a pet groomer is privileged to know your pet in a different way than their veterinarian. Grooming visits are more frequent and enjoyable allowing a more positive relationship to be established. Through these repeated visits, skin conditions or overall health can be more closely monitored. When a positive relationship is developed between the groomer and pet, the rewards work both ways. Just as in an owner/pet relationship, the groomer/pet relationship also has its joys and rewards.

With the original opening of FURology, we provided grooming for dogs, cats and small animals in the same facility.

But knowing that our feline friends and smaller mammals can be stressed when around dogs, I always wanted to provide a situation for them to be seen in an environment that was designed to meet their needs. When the opportunity presented itself, I seized it and created PURRology SPaw & Retreat, which is dedicated to grooming and boarding needs for cats and small animals. Our new facility has equipment designed to meet the specific needs of cats: smaller kennels, a quiet grooming room, drying kennels designed for cats, and a quick service room. Our Retreat is just that - spacious accommodations for cats to stay for extended periods of time and relax. These boarding suites have individualized air filtration systems, ensuring the air is always clean and fresh. Our guests have multiple levels to explore inside either the townhouse or condominium accommodation. There is

also the opportunity for each Retreat guest to spend time in the sunroom enjoying a different view to the outside world. Each stay comes with lots of love and attention from our staff. Being a sister of the original salon, PURRology enjoys the same philosophy and mission that began 5 years prior.

Due to our amazing clients and supportive community, our original FURology SPaw grew to a situation where we needed more space to continue providing the experience we have been so proud to offer. In September of this year, we were able to expand our location in the same complex enabling us to continue offering our unique approach to the grooming process reducing stress and anxiety. This expansion was also needed to provide our groomers adequate space to continue offering the best grooming experience possible. And, as our new SPaw is a bit smaller, we try to provide for our smaller clients in this setting. Our smaller pet clients enjoy being away from their larger, more intimidating friends. Our fur friends, their parents and employees are all appreciating this opportunity for a different experience.

Furology, Inc. At all three of our locations, we have an amazing team with over 100 years of combined experience in the animal field. We are a collection of dedicated professionals that want to share our passion and knowledge with our pet clients and their parents. We have a large variety of certifications including pet CPR, AKC Safe Salon Certification, and Fear Free Certified Stylists As a salon owner and employer, I embrace professional growth for all members of my staff by offering seminars and growth opportunities within the pet industry.

When looking back over the last five years, I am so grateful to have been on such a wonderful journey with so many amazing people. I have a dedicated staff that embraces my original passion and philosophy. My clients have not only supported my adventure but have shared their most treasured possessions, their pets. And finally, Santee has been an exceptional community to call a business home. Its citizens take pride in the community and are willing to support small businesses within its boundaries. It would be hard to imagine the growth and success that I have experienced in a different community. I am so grateful to call Santee my business home and look forward to many more years of involvement in such a wonderful city.

As we are approaching the holiday season, I can think of so many reasons to celebrate and say “thank you”. I am so grateful and blessed to be part of the business community in Santee. I am also grateful for the supportive team of employees that have supported the FURology journey and chosen to stay with me during all of my wild and crazy adventures. It goes without saying that the clients that visit us faithfully have created this wonderful opportunity to not only provide for their pets, but to share their lives with us. Let us all be grateful for our wonderful experiences and lives.

May you each enjoy the upcoming holiday season to its fullest!

With 15 years in business, they are the longeststanding music school in the Santee area. Staump has provided a safe space for students of all ages to express their creativity, learn new skills, and overall, enhance their lives through music. They pride themselves on the fact that they offer more than “just music lessons”.

Staump ultimately cares for their students’ well-being to ensure they’re enjoying the entire experience.

Throughout the years, Staump has offered free classes in partnership with all nine Santee School district sites as well as the City of Santee Recreation Services. Currently they are offering a 30-Day Lesson Pass for all youth in East County to have the opportunity to experience music classes. They teach a wide variety of instruments - piano, guitar, drums, bass, ukulele, flute & voice. Perhaps their most unique and recognizable class offerings are their Rock Band classes. Kids starting at age 4 are able to play in a real band from day one, with no experience needed! Their KidzRock program for ages 4-7 allows young kids to

learn the basics of music while playing together as a band! They learn to read sheet music using colors and rotate between piano, guitar, and drums. The next level up from KidzRock is their Jr. Rockerz program for ages 7-12. These classes focus on tying in technique to popular songs. They also offer Rock Band classes for ages 12-17. Many students have moved up to these classes from the Jr. Rock program. Their advanced bands who have taken lessons for multiple years have performed at places like the House of Blues, Lestat’s, and the famous Whisky a Go Go. In addition to rock bands, Staump offers private lessons for any instrument taught at their school.

They also offer single instrument Group Classes for piano, guitar, ukulele and voice. Staump allows every student the opportunity to perform in front of a live audience, as well as record in a professional recording studio! They are thankful to have been recognized for their years of service and look forward to continuing to be part of this wonderful community!

ECYP Speed Networking at Off Broadway Live In August the East County Young Professionals hosted their highly favored event, speed dating with a twist: Speed Networking! This event was hosted at the beautiful Off Broadway Live where owner, Steve Rolf, ensured that the theater was set up to have our attendees sit comfortably in pairs. Each table of two was given 3 minutes to discuss set table topics. These topics were aimed to encourage our Young Professionals to share their most important and currently beneficial business tips. Be sure to keep a look out for the 2023 Speed Networking event!

Joint Chamber Mixer at Lantern Crest In September we were on the lovely outdoor patio of Lantern Crest Senior Living for a Joint Mixer with Open the La Mesa Chamber. The evening was filled with networking, delicious food, drinks, and raffle drawings! If you have yet to see what Lantern Crest offers, be sure to scan the QR code on page 37 and get your Taste of Santee tickets since we will be hosting our 2022 Taste of Santee at the Plaza at Lantern Crest on November 29th.

Santee Twilight Brews & Bites Festival In October the City of Santee hosted the Santee Twilight Brews & Bites Festival at Town Center Community Park.

Santee Twilight Brews and Bites Festival has participants take part in an evening filled with fine wines, a bevy of brews, tasty treats, bidding bazaar and live music.

SHOP SANTEE There are some businesses in town that always make me want to “Shop Santee”. One I talk of regularly and continue to introduce people to is Santee Coffee Corner. I was introduced to this business before my time with the Chamber began, as friend Clint August was a regular at their Carlton Hills location. I would often pop in on Friday mornings as he made himself available for friends and conversation, and even though he always had a crowd around him, he would always make room at his table for the next friend who arrived. I slowly got to know the family behind the Corner, the Parks.

Duane and Susie are a Santee power-couple with hearts made of gold and kindness that radiates throughout every bit of their being. They built a business to give their children a safe place to grow and learn and to give back to a community that had given them so much. With two locations now (Carlton Hills and Town Center Parkway) I find myself at their stores regularly. Former Santee Chamber CEO John Olsen started a monthly networking event (the Morning Buzz) which is still one of my favorite ways to interact with current and prospective members.

Walking into the Coffee Corner isn't like walking into just any regular business. As Mayor John Minto said recently, "You walk in as a customer, and leave as a friend." I have found this so true with their family. Duane never hesitates to make friendly conversation about my work and home life, Susie is always willing to lend an ear, and even their daughter Mikayla has worked as an intern for me at the Chamber! Susie has been faithfully serving on our Board of Directors and is Chair of the Taste of Santee Committee, an event we are hosting at the end of the month. She must get sick of seeing me so often, but would never let me know! Their store is my Central Perk... it's my place for friends, family, a second office, and of course, some of the best coffee in town.

MY HOMETOWN ME ET RES I D EN T, CO MM U NIT Y VOLU NT EER A N D B US I N ES S EN TREPRENEU R , BOB LLOYD At the end of the summer, Lloyd’s Collision & Paint Center entered a new era. The next generation took over the family business in both their Santee and Lakeside locations from founder and father, Robert “Bob” Lloyd, Sr. Since 1984, Bob has been building his empire in the automotive world by making customers feel like family and having family part of every pocket of his business. Bob, his wife Ailen, and their entire family have all been active servants to our region, involving themselves in volunteer roles and making countless generous contributions to community projects over the years. Personally, I was able to work closely with each of them as they served separate terms on my Board of Directors. Bob even filled in as interim CEO before my own transition into the role. For those lucky enough to have attended, they also Chaired the Black Tie Galas we hosted from 2016-2018. Bob is known around town for being a gentle giant and his calm, diplomatic demeanor almost landed him a place on the City Council. Although Bob never went through with political aspirations, we appreciate his deep care for our community as he often hosts fundraising events for local candidates and charitable organizations.

Bob has been a pillar in the community and we are so grateful for him and his leadership. They are still around though, enjoying life as grandparents and continuing to be active volunteers (I most recently saw them at the City of Santee’s Twilight Brews & Bites event in October). However, as Bob and Ailen step into their well-deserved retirement life, I’d like to ask everyone who knows them to wish them well and congratulate them on being able to enjoy the fruits of their labor. Congratulations on your next chapter of life.

Onward and upward!

5 WAYS TO CELEBR ATE W I N TER IN SA NTEE GE T IN TO TH E H OLIDAY SP I R I T THI S SE A SON A S W E CON TI N U E TO BE TH A N K FUL FOR A V I BR ANT COMMUNI T Y!

Enjoy the Lights Around Town Did you make it to Trolley Square for the City’s Holiday Tree Lighting? If not, there’s an ALL NEW drive through experience “Lights at the Lakes” at Santee Lakes starting on November 25th (see page 12). Need more? The classic “Starlight Circle” is a neighborhood off Magnolia Avenue on Glendon Circle where the houses go above and beyond for the perfect (less than half mile) holiday stroll.

Grab a Cup of Cocoa or Seasonal Coffee Coffee Corner has two locations and plenty of choices including a classic go-to this time of year, the pumpkin spice latte. (Fun Fact: They serve these all year long!)

Another traditional choice is Kaffee Meister’s hot chocolate made with Guittard sweet ground chocolate and your choice of steamed milk. Bowls N Brews offers a Chamoy Holiday Smoothie, sure to get you feeling festive! Motorcycle Monkey and The Lean Bean are always great choices, as well.

Celebrate at Services for the Season Ever been guilty of showing up at church more during the holidays than the rest of the year? Let me fill you in on something: it’s okay! With many places to worship around town and many churches with festive displays, go celebrate your holidays with a service alongside your family and neighbors. My favorite in December is the Lady of Guadalupe mass at Guardian Angels.

Shop Small and Make a Local Impact You’ve probably already witnessed the increased traffic in retail stores and restaurants, but did you know, of every dollar spent at a locally owned business, about 70 cents stays local? Join Mission Realty Group on Small Business Saturday (11/26) as they host a shopping event at their office, print your holiday cards at The UPS Store, or hire a local photographer to get those family portraits done!

Donate Where You Can and Support Your City Find a way to give your Time, Talent or Treasure to some of the amazing organizations in town or nearby. Check in with your church, school or wherever you go for recreational services and see if they plan on doing something extra for the holidays. Want a quick find? Check out the Santee Food Bank or Santee Santas as they both have extra needs during the holidays.

THANK YOU SPONSORS AND VETERANS! 26

SANTEE SCOOP Hi, I’m John Olsen, a longtime resident and business advocate of Santee.

As an active member of the Santee Chamber I often showcase upcoming development projects and events around town.

Be sure to follow me for more on Facebook.com/SanteeUpdate As we get closer to Thanksgiving, we all have so many things that we can be thankful for. I am thankful for my family, friends, and the clients that I have the privilege of working with, many of which are veterans or active duty military and their families. I am grateful for the service that my clients have given this country and community, and I am grateful to be able to give back to them with the services I can provide them.

While I am able to show my thankfulness through my business, we all have the chance to show our thankfulness at many veteran-owned businesses in Santee! Here are just a few of the veteran owned businesses we have here in town:

Coastal Kids Dentistry & Orthodontics Dr. Jordan Buzzell, or Dr. “Buzz” to his patients, is one of the amazing dentists working at Coastal Kids, and is known for his compassion, patience, and love for every patient. Dr. Buzz is a veteran of the Navy after serving for six years, and remains a member of the Active Reserves.

Copper Collar Distillery Jason Pelle and Scott Nixon are the co-owners of Copper Collar Distillery here in Santee. They have a variety of high quality spirits that are created in house from scratch and are available in their tasting room or select local liquor stores. Both Jason and Scott served in the Navy as divers, which the name Copper Collar pays homage to.

IPM4You Pest and Termite Jim Panknin, the Branch Manager and President of IPM4You, is a veteran from both the military and aviation.

IPM4You is a great pest control company that services all over San Diego! They work with their clients to find the source of the issue, manage the issue on scene, and help them make sure it doesn’t happen again.

Red, White, and Badass Brew Dustin Hayes is the owner and Navy veteran behind Red, White, and Badass Brew (RWBB) Coffee. RWBB has small-batch roasted coffee that comes in a variety of great flavors paired with quippy names, like “Whiskey Business.” Each sale also has a donation that goes toward helping fight PTSD and suicide within the veteran community.

Viking Battery Viking Battery is an independent battery store in Santee that’s been around San Diego since 1963. They offer a wide variety of batteries from recreational vehicles to commercial equipment to solar! Richard, the owner, served in the Army in 1970. Viking Battery is a Certified Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise.

Thank you to all of the veterans and active service members! We have so much to be thankful for.

T H E B E NEFITS O F DANCE! My mentor, Misty Lown, always says, “We don’t teach kids to make great dancers, we teach dance to make great kids!” This is a philosophy that has always been central to the culture at Expressions. The benefits of dance training are many, and we see them play out every day at the studio. From social, emotional, and physical health, to friendship, creativity, and confidence, not many activities can compete with all that dance has to offer.

Recent West Hills graduate, Tori Lepur, said, “EDMC has taught me so many lessons that I genuinely think that I cannot list them all. Not only did I leave the studio as a strong, confident dancer, I left with the greatest group of friends that I could have ever wanted. There is an unspoken bond between all of my friends at the studio that I believe could have only been achieved through the studio’s environment. The studio creates a space for everyone to develop their own personalities while also fostering a community that unites dancers over common goals. The studio truly raises amazing leaders and good people in general.”

Tori joined our Teaching Assistant Program as a

young dancer and later became a member of our Junior Faculty. She is currently attending Cal Poly San Luis Obispo where she is studying to become a teacher. About the influence the studio had on her path, Tori said, “I found my love of teaching at the studio. I grew to love assisting and decided that I wanted to eventually teach at the studio. Once the opportunity for Junior Faculty opened up, I was so grateful to be able to teach and I quickly fell in love with all of my students. Every child I have ever taught has brought me so much joy and has increased my passion for dance even more. I’m so grateful to the studio for allowing me to teach and spread my love of dance to so many awesome kids.”

Tori’s is just one of the many success stories we have witnessed over our 12 years serving the Santee community. It brings us great joy to witness the growth of our students and to see them go on to achieve great things and make a difference in the lives of others. At Expressions, we are working to create a world where every child feels seen and cared for, and where they are supported in discovering and developing their unique gifts.

PR EPAR ING YO U R R ÉSU M É Your résumé is the primary tool for communicating information about yourself to prospective employers.

Résumés follow a fairly standard format, which include Header, Objective, Skills, Experience, and Education. The layout of your résumé will change depending on the amount of work experience you have, as well as your level of experience in the field for which you are applying. If you don’t have much experience in the specific career field you are applying for, it’s best to detail your past work experience and relate the skills required in your previous jobs to the new job.

Do not lie, and do not stretch the truth. Have quality copies made from a fresh master copy. Included below are explanations of each section of your résumé and a sample résumé outline.

The Header should contain full name and all necessary contact information. Provide at least one phone number. If you have a cell phone, give that number. Be wary of any e-mail address or website URL you provide as you may be judged on the content of your website or the name on your e-mail address.

The Objective or Qualifications Summary: Keep objective simple. Don’t write fluffy statements about your desire to change the world through this job.

Try to convey why you should be hired—your desire, work ethic, etc. If you have solid qualifications for the job, list those instead.

Skills: If you have limited experience, list your basic job skills. For the more experienced, include as many of the skills that are required for the job as possible, including computer skills, knowledge of specific business software, even specific tasks that you know the job will require.

Employment History or Work Experience: If you have experience, always include your most recent work experience at the top and include all relevant experience no matter how old. If you’ve had many job changes or short stints at jobs, be sure to explain why, but do not blame the job or previous employer.

Education: Include full details on your education including degrees and awards received. Include any relevant training classes for previous jobs.
