La Jolla Christmas Parade Program

FRIDAY · DECEMBER 2, 2016 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

The 59th Annual La Jolla Christmas Parade & Holiday Festival, ‘Christmas in the Future’ welcomes you.

The Parade ends at the La Jolla Rec Center – site of the Holiday Festival. The Stage Entertainment begins at 2:00 p.m. at the Rec Center, culminating with the Lighting of the Community Christmas Tree on the Rec Center lawn. The Tree is decorated courtesy of GDC Construction with support from La Jolla Sunrise Rotary. Santa’s visit to the Christmas Parade and Holiday Festival is provided by Sunrise Rotary and he is driven in the La Jolla Beach & Tennis Club’s Old Black Goose, a 1915 Black Packard Convertible.

This event is entirely funded by community sponsorships and donations from local Foundations, businesses, and residents. It depends on countless volunteer hours from the Christmas Parade & Holiday Festival Committee, and many others who support the Foundation. They are dedicated to making the 2016 Christmas Parade & Holiday Festival the best ever!

It has been my privilege to work with them for nearly two decades, and some have been volunteering for more than 30 years! A special thanks to Patricia Wells (Parade Administrator), Mike Carlin (Parade Director), Felicia Parker and Gail Forbes (Festival Coordinators). Thanks to La Jolla Sunrise Rotary (Jim Poirier) and the Park and Recreation Center Advisory Board (Cindy Greatrex, President) for their grants to the Foundation for the Community Christmas Tree Lighting.

La Jolla Christmas Parade Program Traditional Marshal WINDANSEA CLUB SHACK – 70 YEARS’ YOUNG

Hans Newman’s Early Memories of the Shack I attended La Jolla Elementary, Muirlands Junior High and LJHS, class of '73.

I got my Ecology Badge while an Explorer Scout (La Jolla Troop 4) in 1969 replanting Torrey Pine trees with Ranger Ray Guisewite after the '68 fire. We had moved down near Big Rock in 1965 (where my mother Ruth Hansen still resides) and I got involved with WindanSea and the Shack that summer.

When I got out of Cal, while managing Su Casa (off and on from 1979-2005) I helped resurrect the WindanSea Surf Club in 1981 and served as President for 4 terms. I got really involved at the local beach, surf contests, clean-ups etc. and helped maintain the Shack for many

years. During that time (news article 1986) I realized the fragility of the actual structure and how historical it was (long story for another time). I had my cartographer friend, David Coy, do a set of blueprints in 1986, with all original dimensions and compass orientation, in case it ever went down. The plans came in handy! Later on, encouraged by Melinda Merryweather and aided by architect Tony Ciani I made a presentation to the San Diego Historical Site Board. The historical status was passed unanimously with the stipulation that we must maintain the Shack, which the beach community had already done for over 50 years by that time, 1998. I was instrumental getting Friends of WindanSea its first major contribution from the late Betty Coggan and her family, which built two sets of beach access stairs near Big Rock and another near Neptune and Rosemont. I was elected to the La Jolla Town Council in 2002 working on Parks and Beaches. We moved to Atascadero to raise our family in '05, but I remain active at WindanSea. My father is, of course, Dr. Wm A. Newman, Professor Emeritus at Scripps, resides in La Jolla with his wife Lynn Kennedy Newman. My younger brother, Dr. James H. Newman, Astronaut (Ret.) is a former Parade Marshal himself. I drove Melinda in my Woodie last year and have participated many, many times over the years from Scouts, the Surf Club, to staging cars with LJTC! It's an honor to participate again.

La Jolla Christmas Parade Program

FRIDAY · DECEMBER 2, 2016 LA JOLLA VILLAGE NEWS

Residents revel in a time-honored tradition The La Jolla Parade and Holiday Festival is always a hit

By BLAKE BUNCH

There’s something inherently right and good about the holiday season, no matter how crazy things may often seem. Indefinitely the result of nostalgia for simpler points in life, cooling (somewhat) temperatures and being surrounded by loved ones, San Diegans— La Jollans especially— love their holiday festivities. This year marks the 59th Annual La Jolla Parade and Holiday Festival, an event participated in and viewed by thousands. Surely to outdo previous years, this parade will surely entail something for the entire family.

The celebration kicks off at 1:30 p.m. on Sunday, Dec. 4, on Girard Ave. It is then routed west down Girard Ave., then south down Prospect Ave., the parade willend on the corner of Prospect and Draper

Ave. in front of the La Jolla Recreation Department. This will be the first year that more than one parade marshal has been appointed, with eight acting marshals participating!

“You know, my father, George, has been decorating this tree for thirty years,” said Pancho Dewherst while decorating the tree on the corner of Girard and Prospect Ave.“He would donate his time and cherry picker every year, and I aim to continue that tradition. This is something that I have been involved in nearly every year since I was a child, and it’s amazing to now share those experiences with my own kids.”

A truly noble cause, The Parade and Festival is an all-volunteer effort, fully SEE PARADE, Page 12

Support neighborhood businesses this holiday season La Jolla offers a wealth of stores and services to suit your gift-giving needs

“Staff picks” at Wawicks, located at 7812 Girard Avenue.

This brief window of time, which ultimately follows Thanksgiving and leads up to faith-based holidays, can often prove stressful. Perhaps the in-laws just left, or will be coming at the end of the month.

Maybe that one gift that your child is begging for belies a perilous journey to some faceless monolith of a toy store.

Luckily for La Jollans, shopping local is quite convenient. Nearly everywhere one

looks there are a stream of shops – off Girard, Ivanhoe, Fay and all the way down to Bird The beauty of these shops is that they have become part of the fiber of the community, and with the holidays rapidly approaching, they are as welcomed a sight as ever. The La Jolla Village News recently spent the early-morning pre-lunch rush chatting with some of our favorite store owners about how they approach the holidays. It is not surprising to find that they are all anticipating this time of year with vigor, always keeping their customers in mind.

Whether thoughtfully executed or an impulse buy, there is certainly something for every loved one found in the storefronts and businesses of La Jolla. No matter one’s method of shopping, here at the La Jolla Village News we aim to make life a little easier on shoppers. From toddlers to nonagenarians, this gift-giving guide of local shops should provide you with a great starting point.

Books, stocking stuffers and impulse gifts Warwick’s Warwick’s is a proverbial one-stop holiday shop. Not only are they a bookstore, but also sell holiday decorations, jewelry, hand bags and much more. One interesting program that they have initiated is a Warwick’s Kids Book of the Month program.

Through this program, a love one initiates the program for a child. In turn, books are then purchased by a children’s bookseller based on their age, hobbies and favorite writers.

Truly a wonderful way to get kids excited about reading – just play to their strengths.

While Warwick’s is also know to sell classic and contemporary jewelry year round, their current selection entails countless specials.

La Jolla Christmas Parade Program Santa Clauses’, Television snow globes, seven-foot-tall toy soldiers and almost everything else associated with the seasons, this is the ultimate place to shop for that holiday nut in your life. Honestly, if you can imagine it, you will find it at Adelaide’s.

Beware of glitter.

Muttropolis

Gepetto’s Toys Perhaps one of the most kid-centric store in La Jolla, Gepetto’s truly brings out the child in anyone. While they are a year-round toy shop, this time of year they really shine.

From Christmas and Hanukkah inspired gifts, to all around water activity toys and scooters, Gepetto’s is sure to have something for the child in your life (no matter what age).

Adelaide’s Flowers While every storefront facade is utterly colored like a candy-cane during this time of year, nothing can compare to the spread down at Adelaide’s flowers. With full-sized

When one thinks of gift-giving, often man’s best friend does not enter the picture.

That is not the way they are gearing up for the holidays at Muttropolis, however. They are currently educating customer about healthy no-rawhide dog treats, which are some of their best-selling stocking stuffers for pooches. Don’t have a stocking for your canine? They’ve got you covered.
