SAN DIEGO COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER GROUP BEACHANDBAYPRESS.COMFRIDAY, FEBRUARY 7, 2020

Coyne, Carrie Munson, Seamus Kennedy, Monica Eslamian and Teddy Martinez also presented Neighbors Of The Year and Small Businesses Of The Year awards to deserving constituents in Point

Loma, Ocean Beach, and Midway, as well as Pacifi c and Mission beaches, Linda Vista/Morena and Clairemont. The district also includes Bay Ho/Bay Park.

Campbell looked forward — and back — during her inaugural, year-beginning address.

“Last year the Council unani-mously approved a new commu-nity action plan on homelessness while moving us toward our goal of 100% renewable energy and a council committee recently

declared a climate emergency,” said Campbell. “I want to focus on how San Diego can shrink its carbon footprint while creating a better plan for our kids and grandkids. My focus is not just on the natural environment, but also on our city environment. We fi lled over 3,000 potholes, patched miles of road and fi xed more than a thousand streetlights, just in District 2.”

By DAVE SCHWAB | BEACH & BAY PRESS

In a far-ranging State of the District address on Jan. 30, District 2 Councilmember Dr.

Jennifer Campbell touched on every-thing from monarch butterflies and pesticide use to housing, homeless-ness, electric scooters, and short-term vacation rentals.

The event at Liberty Station Conference Center was hosted by Campbell in partnership with Point Loma Nazarene University.

Beach residents, visitors react to scooter boardwalk ban

DAVE SCHWAB | BEACH & BAY PRESS

Local reaction was mostly positive to City Council’s recent 5-4 vote banning

motorized vehicles, including elec-tric scooters, on Mission Beach, Pacific Beach and La Jolla Shores boardwalks, as well as along Mission Bay Park Bayside.

Bird reacted to the recent scooter boardwalk ban.

“Bird is a committed mem-ber of the San Diego commu-nity, and we are grateful to residents, local businesses, and community organizations that have championed and sup-ported shared e-scooters,” said Tim Harter of Bird. “While we are disappointed in the City of San Diego’s decision to ban all motorized devices on the boardwalk, we are supportive of Council’s direction to speed up infrastructure improvements along Mission Boulevard.

“We look forward to continu-ing to partner with the City to help provide a reliable and en-vironmentally friendly trans-portation option to help locals and visitors easily get around town, connect to transit, and enjoy everything the city has to offer, as well as improving safety measures for all.”

Beach residents Gay Wonacott, recent past Mission Beach Town Council president, and Bill Zent of Pacifi c Beach, who authored a petition drive to curb scoot-ers, were pleased by the City Council’s action.

“MB residents and visitors to our community will now be able to walk on our boardwalks during the summer months with much less risk of being run over,” said Wonacott. “But this is a deci-sion that never should have been required this long after the e-mo-bility devices were introduced by Bird, Lime and others.”

“I am extremely pleased with the job Councilmember Barbara Bry did on the scooter issue,” said Zent. “We achieved a permanent ban in key areas such as the boardwalk. Numerous people who signed my petition were thrilled and sent me emails expressing their appreciation to all who worked to resolve a dangerous problem here in San Diego.

“Scooters companies like Lyme leaving once this ordi-nance was announced high-lights the fact that they never came here to provide mobili-ty. They came to leverage our tourism into a profi t while sell-ing their goods for free on our streets and sidewalks.”

Beach visitors largely agreed that a scooter boardwalk ban was proper.

“I have mixed feelings, 50-50, about having a full ban, said Cristen Clemetson of Bay Park. “There does need to be some kind of regulation. I just don’t know if banning them completely is good. We want to cut back on cars and emissions and traffi c and all that stuff. But it did get to the point where it was overwhelming. [Scooters are] helpful to get from point A to point B.”

“I don’t think they should ban them because a lot of people use them,” said Don Ofer of Las Vegas. “Everybody’s going to make money from it. They do it in all the other cities. I’ve never seen anybody stupid on them. I don’t have a problem with it.”

“Due to speed, maybe [the ban is] applicable as people don’t know how to slow down,” said Iluyomade Segun of Solana Beach. “I support the ban just for the fact that it’s automatic. People need to apply their sense. It’s a great idea.”

“I do like the scooters, but I can understand [the ban] be-cause it’s dangerous,” said Matt Collamer, visiting from Boston. “It makes sense. It’s probably a good call. I think it’s fair.”

The council Jan. 28 also opted to reduce the scooter geofencing speed limit from 8 to 3 mph in some areas.

On the beachfront, motorized scooters and bicycles will now only be allowed to travel at a maximum of 3 miles per hour in the following locations:• On the public walkway on

Ocean Front Walk in Mission Beach, beginning at the South Mission Beach Jetty northward to the terminus of the public walkway at Ocean Boulevard at Law Street in Pacifi c Beach.

Enjoy a slice of the good life at the beach FROM OLD-SCHOOL ITALIAN, TO DETROIT-STYLE SHEET, TO CAULIFLOWER CRUST

You don’t need a special day or even an excuse to do it. It’s something

we all do. Some people do it be-fore bed, some at midday, and more than you think do it cold in the morning. It’s perfectly normal. Eating pizza is a nation-al pastime.

In San Diego’s beach commu-nities, there are a variety of piz-zas to choose from – from healthy cauliflower crust to Detroit-style sheet pizza to old school Italian hot pies – you’re going to find a slice of love.

With National Pizza Day this weekend on Feb. 9, San Diego Community Newspaper Group decided to highlight some of the local pizzas that our readers may enjoy.

PACIFIC BEACH

POWERHAUS WHOLESOME PIZZA & EATS

Powerhaus Wholesome Pizza & Eats really packs a culinary wallop, serving wholesome piz-zas, superfood smoothies, nour-ishing wraps, unique salads and Kombucha on tap.

SQUARE PIZZA CO. For something a little different,

Square Pizza offers thin-crust Boston Beach Pizza, Upside-down Sicilian, and Detroit Style pies. The pizzeria owners grew up in the North Shore of Boston, where there’s a style of pizza called “Beach Pizza,” which they decided to bring to San Diego. But they didn’t stop there, on a trip to Brooklyn they tried pizza

where cheese went down first, then sauce on top. It looked and sounded different, and they loved it. Then they included Detroit’s favorite sheet pizza that has a soft yet crispy bottom dough, caramelized cheese around the edges and house-made sauce on top. All three styles are available, along with gluten-free options, for an amazing pizza experience.

“We took the best of local fa-vorites from Boston, New York, and Detroit and put our spin on it to make great pizza,” said Fred Santos, Square Pizza Co. owner.

MARINO’S ITALIAN RESTAURANT

A classic, sit-down, family-run, time-honored classic Italian restaurant in Pacific Beach, Marino’s Italian Restaurant is considered by many to be a hid-den gem.

“Our family-owned business has been serving PB since 1954,” said restaurant spokeswoman Camille Gordon-Kling. “Our pizza dough and sauce has been made the same way, by hand, for the last 66 years. Try it with sausage, made in house, or fresh veggies.”

Hours at this old-school neigh-borhood venue offering tradition-al pizza and various pasta dishes in vibrant, colorful surroundings are 4 to 9 p.m. daily.

MAMMA MIA There are few things that are

better than fresh, made-to-or-der thin-crust pizza pies – and Mamma Mia’s Italian restaurant has some of the best. The quaint eatery masquerades as a small home-style cottage but inside smells of baked bread and home-made pasta. Some of the more original pizzas on this their menu include the Cotto E Funghi Pizza with ham and mushrooms, the Polpette Pizza with meat sauce, meatballs and provolone cheese along with the Ligure Piza with pesto, mozzarella cheese, and sautéed shrimp.

Mamma Mia’s pizza is not only delicious but also light! In fact, you could be eating a great, Italian-style pizza with only un-der 800 calories (ask chef Cinzia Mezzetti or her staff for more in-formation). They also offer glu-ten-free options.

“We have a Vietnamese sweet and spicy pulled pork pizza that we’re famous for,” according to Rosaria cooks. “It’s saucy and spicy, we use chili powder flakes, and very interesting. Once you try it you go, ‘Oh, my God.’”

Pizza crust used at Rosaria is just right, not too thick or thin. There is also a deep-dish pizza choice on the menu. A total of 13 different styles of pizza are avail-able. The eatery also offers pastas, chicken wings, sandwiches, and salads.

Campbell characterized infra-structure improvements includ-ing new crosswalks and side-walks in District 2 as “investing in our community. They may seem like small changes, but they have made a big difference.”

Added the council member, “We must take a holistic ap-proach to community improve-ments. My budget this year will include requesting additional money to plant trees to reach the goals of our climate action plan, and will also include providing protection for our wetlands and reducing pollution.”

Noting that it is something that “the community of Ocean Beach has been asking for decades,” Campbell said, “I’m the fi rst coun-cil member in District 2 to fi nally secure funding for the expanding Ocean Beach Library.”

Turning to the future, Campbell noted, “As I look at the year ahead, there are several key is-sues: housing and homelessness, short-term vacation rentals, en-vironmental protection, public safety, and constituent services.”

The Council member also vet-ted her fi ve-point campaign — unifi cation, outreach, buildings, wrap-around services, and mon-itoring — for battling homeless-ness which she said is “coming to fruition.”

Pointing out the dwindling Monarch butterfly population is becoming a major cause of concern, Campbell also warned against continuing pesticide use.

“We’re making progress on a pesticide-proof pilot park pro-gram here in Liberty Station to ensure more of our parks are pesticide-free in 2020,” she said.

Of short-term rentals, she said, “Residents across the city are de-manding a comprehensive set of short-term rental regulations. It’s time to act.”

Campbell closed with an invi-tation. “Consider my offi ce your resource,” she concluded.

District 2 neighbor and busi-ness awardees included: Marshall Picard, A 101-year old World War II veteran and Midway resident who helps set up and serve food at The Orchard senior living community; entrepreneur Sarah Mattinson of Olive Bakery, a Mission Beach restaurant, and community hub; Kimberly Wise of Mission Beach for leading a short-term rental commit-tee while running a business and raising a family; Randall’s Sandals, a Pacifi c Beach shop that hosts beach clean-ups and encourages environmentally responsible shopping through discounts for donations; and Ocean Beach Hardware, Bay City Brewing Co. in Midway, Goodbar in Point Loma; entrepreneur Sandy Hanshaw of Point Loma, Cathie Jolley of Pacifi c Beach and OB Elementary principal Marco Drapeu.

LUIGI’S AT THE BEACH It might surprise most people

to hear that a slice of pizza at Luigi’s At The Beach on Mission Boulevard is $6.50. But it’s even more surprising to be present-ed with a slice of pizza that’s

bigger than your torso. While it might induce a food coma, the oven-baked pizza, made from scratch, is worth every pen-ny. The New York-style slice is fresh and perfect to fold and bite. Whether it’s a regular cheese slice or topped with anchovies and broccoli, one slice of this Mission Beach delicacy could feed a family for a week.

CITY TACOS OPENS City Tacos opened its doors from

11 a.m. to 10 p.m. in Pacific Beach on Friday, Jan. 31 and offered free tacos for the grand opening. “I am ecstatic to continue growing the City Tacos family across the great city of San Diego,” said owner Gerry Torres.

Pacific Beach locals and visitors can enjoy a new space complete with familiar menu favorites. The location, at 4516 Mission Blvd., features bright mural artwork, an iconic neon sign featuring a slogan, and beachside scenery.

Guests can try house favorites, such as the Pollo City Taco alongside a signature salsa bar, a rotating se-lection of aguas frescas and Mexican beers on tap. The Pacific Beach loca-tion will also offer core Paleo, vegan and vegetarian menu selections.

City Tacos has continued to offer a unique taco lineup since the open-ing of its first location in North Park. From there, the City Tacos family has expanded to include locations in La Mesa, Imperial Beach, Encinitas and a recent opening in Sorrento Valley. The taqueria in Pacific Beach will be its sixth location.

SURF RIDER PROPERTIES FOR SALEThe Patio Group selloff continues

with a second “wave” of properties,

including all Surf Rider Pizza loca-tions (Mission Beach, La Mesa and Ocean Beach), joining the auction block. Next Wave Commercial, which recently represented en-trepreneur Steve Young in pur-chasing The Holding Company in OB, is handling the listing of five fast-casual restaurants, including Surf Rider.

Founded in OB in 2010, East Coast-style Surf Rider was brought under the umbrella of The Patio Group in 2015. In addition to the Surf Rider spots, which range in size from 1,029-square-feet to 4,143-square-feet, the available sites also include the now-shut-tered Bao Beach, which opened in 2016 on Mission Boulevard and served an Asian-inspired menu.

“This portfolio represents a ra-re opportunity for a restaurant group or individual operator to acquire several newly renovated restaurant facilities,” said Paul Ahern of Next Wave Commercial. “These locations could either be purchased with the trade name/intellectual property and continue operating as Surf Rider Pizzas, or instead be rebranded to entirely new concepts.”

In August 2019, Gina Champion-Cain, founder of The Patio Group, was civilly charged by the United States Federal Securities and Exchange Commission for allegedly oper-ating a multi-year, $300 million scheme that defrauded approxi-mately 50 retail investors.READ MORE ONLINE AT sdnews.com


Dance for all ages at Tap Fever in Pacifi c Beach By DAVE SCHWAB | BEACH & BAY PRESS

Give dance a chance at nonprofit Tap Fever studios in Pacific Beach,

implores owner Larisa Hall.It’s been quite a metamorphosis

for Hall, who previously worked in broadcast television in San Diego. She transitioned over completely to dance opening her first dance studio 12 years ago in April 2008.

“I’ve always danced since I was a kid — tap, ballet, and contempo-rary and hip hop when I got old-er,” said Hall, who was born with misshapen feet and used dance to help correct them. “Once I was an adult, I started subbing dance classes for other teachers. And then I realized I liked doing this.”

Looking around then, Hall said, “I noticed a lack of classes for adults, especially tap, I said, ‘Wow, there should be a tap stu-dio in San Diego.’”

So she created one.“I wanted a place that felt

very homey and welcoming,” Hall said. “I created Tap Fever so there’s a place for everybody who wants to be able to dance.”

Tap Fever started out in La Jolla, then was on Turquoise Street in north PB before mov-ing on to Garnet Avenue where patrons could more easily find parking, and it was also close to the freeway.

Hall said her youngest dance pupil is age 2 1/2 and her oldest students are in their 70s and 80s.

“There are some people who have been dancing with us since we opened in 2008,” said Hall noting about half of her students are adults. “We have great pro-grams for both kids and adults,” said Hall adding, “I’m excited about what we have to offer as far as tap goes. But I don’t want to shortchange the other pro-grams we have. Our ballet pro-gram is fantastic. We have an adult ballet class as well.”

Tap Fever Studios provides accessible dance opportunities to people of all ages, with and without disabilities, empowering students to achieve their goals through the performing arts.

The studio offers both one-on-one and small-group instruction.

Tap Fever is now in a former

single-family home at 2146 Garnet Ave. Whether you’re a toddler, young child, a junior or an adult or senior, Tap Fever has a class to aid students in achiev-ing their goals.

Tap Fever offers three, 16-week sessions throughout the year.

“Our big recital is April 25, and then we have a holiday show in December,” noted Hall.

What’s fun about teaching dance?

“Everything, even stuff like do-ing the website,” answered Hall.

What’s challenging?“I never thought I’d do a web-

site, but now that I’ve done it — it’s fun,” Hall said. “The chal-lenging part, as a nonprofit, is having the funds, getting the donations, to cover things.”

Added Hall, “The best part is just seeing how excited people get about class, about choreog-raphy and performing and the costumes. People tell me all the time, ‘Dance is their therapy.’ Even if they’re having a bad day, they feel better after they come and take a dance class.”

929-933 Garnet Ave. : (currently occupied by G3 Kids and The Mad Beet) was sold in January. The tenants are on long-term leases and are not going anywhere. The Boyer Family Trust has owned the property since the 1950s. The property sold for $3.5 million to Marigold Investors LLC and the Franco Realty Group

"I have represented the Boyer Family Trust for nearly 15 years helping them put in various ten-ants such as Pink Zone, Mad Beet and G3 Kids,” said Franco. “At one point, we had an offer to lease out the Pink Zone space to an adult bookstore. However, we chose G3 Kids for less money because it was a better choice for the community."

“Who would have thought I’d still be repairing bikes,” says 73-year-old Bob Bohn, owner of The Bikesmith on Garnet Avenue, near Lamont Street. “I’ve been in this bright yellow building for a long time. I painted it yellow so people would notice it.”

Bob started working at a PB bike shop in 1970. “I was fresh out of the Navy. I worked as a battleship mechanic. There was a job open-ing at a bike repair shop and I al-ways liked fixing things, working with my hands. I wasn’t really looking at bicycles as a profession. I didn’t choose it, it chose me.”

But it was a good choice. When his employer’s shop closed in 1978, Bohn opened his own place in PB, The Bikesmith. He’s been there repairing and selling bikes ever since.

Bob admits, “I really think of myself as more than just a bike repair guy.” He considers himself a true bicycle mechanic. “I work

and restore racing bikes, moun-tain bikes, beach cruisers, foreign bikes, even rare models. You nev-er know who or what is going to come through the front door. One day I was repairing a tricycle and right next to it I was working on a $3,500 high-end racing bike.”

Bob says things have changed a lot since the bike heydays of the 1980s when BMX and mountain bikes f looded the market. At one time he had two full-time mechan-ics, beside himself.

“Now, it’s just me. My meat and potato business is fixing f lats, I average fixing five flats a day, 30 a week. But I sell enough refur-bished bikes and do enough tune-ups, cleaning, brake work, and rim repairs to keep me in business.“

And his PB business has accu-mulated a lot over the decades. The old-school shop is chocked full of f loor-to-ceiling bikes. His walls are festooned with tires, pedals, handlebars, seats, inner tubes and memorabilia. There’s only enough room for a single line worn path to the front counter.

“This is the shop time forgot. I have something for everybody’s bike needs,” says Bob. “That’s why so many people have come here and keep coming back. I give peo-ple quality work for a fair price.”

While many his age are re-tired or thinking of retirement, the 73-year-old Bohn says he doesn’t know how long he’ll con-tinue working. “I’m here six days a week. I bring my lunch every day. I enjoy the people. I’ll be repairing bikes as long as I phys-ically can.”

That’s what Bikesmith’s do.

PERSONAL INJURY – ACCIDENTS

Auto | Cycle | Pedestrian Dog Bite | Slip and Fall

Brain Injury | Wrongful Death

By FRANK SABATINI JR. | BEACH & BAY PRESS

Food, drinks, and family fun are in store aboard a 3,900-square-foot vessel

destined for Mission Bay waters. Conceived by Brad Hunter of AQUAlounge, construction of the 149-passenger craft begins March 1 by Marine Group Boat Works in Chula Vista. It carries a price tag of $5 million.

Despite possessing all the el-ements of party boat — bars on two levels and room for live music and dancing on the main deck — Hunter stresses the venue will ap-peal to passengers of all ages.

The yet-to-be-named boat will drift around the bay day and night from its primary dock at the Hyatt Regency Mission Bay Spa and Marina. It will offer “regular pub-lic programs” in-between private events.

Those opportunities will include a “Mediterranean day club” in the afternoons; two-hour dinners in the early evenings; and lounge periods starting around 8:30 p.m. There will also be champagne brunches on Saturdays and Sundays, as well as a “weekend day club” tailored for guests 21 years of age and older, from 1:30 to 8:30 p.m.

“That’s when we will be more fo-cused on the party aspect. The rest of the time we’re shooting toward a more high-end relaxing yacht-type feel,” said Hunter, adding that “there will be a lot of times when it’s family-oriented, such as when we do audio-visual shows incorpo-rating fleets of drones.”

Hunter also plans on recruiting guest chefs from local restaurants

to conduct weekly pop-up din-ners and culinary events. As for the boat’s regular bill of fare, “We’re shooting for higher-end organic dishes,” he said, adding that the main chef will soon be announced.

The project has been six years in the making, due mainly to the arduous task of securing approv-al by the City of San Diego and the U.S. Coast Guard.

“The first meeting I had with the city was in 2013, and final ap-proval was in spring of last year,” noted Hunter, who is a Mission Beach resident and the owner of a local software company.

Hunter embarked on the ven-ture after flirting with the idea of building a “fancy pontoon” to enjoy with his friends. He then realized there weren’t many op-tions for San Diegans to enjoy being on the water in respect to dining and entertainment, so he began creating renderings of vessels that would hold at least 100 people.

“I reached out to the hotels around Mission Bay to see if there was any interest, and I got very good responses,” he recalls. “They were super helpful in getting the project approved.”

He then took his plan to na-val architect/designer Michael Dockter of the locally based Marine Design company. Compared to Dockter’s previous projects involving yachts, barges and naval boats, Hunter’s vision was unique.

“This is a very different type of passenger vessel because of the large, open mid-deck,” said Dockter. “Also, the back of the boat has three walls, but no front wall. And the front has three walls and no back wall.”

To alleviate weight while still giving the boat a “five-star hotel look,” Dockter selected faux teak for the deck, vinyl paneling for the walls, and tin-stamped tiles for the ceiling. The vessel’s side panels, however, are glass to give the overall construct a sleek, lux-urious look.

In addition, the electrical system will run on a 24-volt DC battery in lieu of a generator, allowing every-thing to operate noise-free when the boat is sitting still.

“There won’t be any other enter-tainment boats that look like this,” Dockter added.

Which is exactly what Hunter intended when looking at the ar-ea competition, which includes Hornblower, the Bahia Belle, and the historic Ohana.

“Those aren’t really marketed much toward the general public,” said Hunter. “We’re using the term ‘floating day club’ and really want to appeal to the locals.”

Boarding prices, he added, will be stick closely to market costs — about $28 for one-hour cruises and $33 for two hours or more. There will also be brunch and dinner packages as well as mem-bership options.

Hunter says the boat will be ready for business immediately after building is complete in mid to late fall. For more information and updates, visit aqualounge.net.

Vocalist Leonard Patton will be joined by two Grammy nom-inees; trumpeter Curtis Taylor and singer Sara Gazarek, with Ed Kornhauser (piano), Justin Grinnell (bass) and Duncan Moore (drums). Armstrong and Fitzgerald are two of the greatest artists the jazz genre has ever produced, with a wealth of material that’s second to none. Expect a set that’s big on the hits, with “What A Wonderful World” likely to be the night’s highlight.A Tribute to Pops and Ella: Friday,

Rock fans will enjoy a special tribute band double bill at the 710 Beach Club on Feb. 15, fea-turing Aerosmythe (Aerosmith) and Township Rebellion (Rage Against the Machine). Both are great bands, but the nod here goes to Aerosmythe, who will perform what is the greatest hits set from their namesake artist. The band doesn’t try to look like Aerosmith, instead of focusing on dynamic performances of the group's best-known songs. With evergreens such as “Sweet Emotion,” “Dream On” and “Ragdoll” in their set, you can expect plenty of singing along and air guitar from fans in the audience. Aerosmythe: Saturday, Feb.

Shop and the Ocean Beach Elementary PTA are partnering to hold the 10th annual Skate for the Kids fundraiser on Sunday, Feb. 9 from noon-3 p.m. at Robb Field Skate Park. This event serves as a fun way to bring the community together, foster a love of skating, and encourage healthy habits while supporting our be-loved neighborhood school.

The day will kick off with a clin-ic to teach beginners skate form and basic tricks. Later, more expe-rienced skaters are invited to en-ter the skate contests and compete for prizes. Attendees will have the chance to bid on items in the silent auction and buy tickets for several raffles that will be held through-out the day. The event wraps up with a skate jam where some of OB’s most talented skaters will show off their best tricks.

McClain making a splash for Mission Bay water poloBy DAVE THOMAS | BEACH & BAY PRESS

Mission Bay High se-nior Callie McClain is doing all she can

to help her team finish strong and make some memories in the process.

McClain, a goalie for the girls’

water polo team, came into her final season at Mission Bay with several goals in mind. Yes, one such goal is keeping the opponents from getting their own goals.

As head coach Lyndsay Sutterley sees it, McClain has grown during her four years with the program.

“I have been fortunate enough to work with Callie for her last three seasons,” Sutterley said. “In Callie’s final season, I would love to see her continue to show her skills as a prominent leader of the team. She is the backbone of the Mission Bay team.”

Beach & Bay Press recently

caught up with McClain for an interview.

BBP: When did you first start playing water polo and how did you get started in the sport?

McClain: I first began playing water polo in fifth grade. At the

time, my interest in swimming and water sports had peaked, so my parents thought that water polo would be a perfect fit for me, and it was.

BBP: What are some of the keys to being a sound goalie?

McClain: My schedule is extremely packed, I play two sports (water polo and rowing) and I am an IB (International Baccalaureate) student, there-fore time management for me is huge. I'd say that the key to being a sound goalie is simply being there and putting in the time and effort that it takes to improve.

BBP: What else are you involved in at Mission Bay and are you planning on college next fall?

McClain: I am involved in the IB program at my school. This pro-gram is extremely rigorous and it requires a lot of time and effort. Hopefully, I will graduate full IB

MISSION BAY HIGH ▪ On Feb. 1, Mission Bay

International Baccalaureate marine science students participated in the Love Your Wetlands Day at Kendall Frost Preserve and presened their project about sea spray aerosols. A joint project with UCSD and Center for Aerosol Impacts on Chemistry of the Environment (CAICE), students took air samples to learn about the chemistry of aerosols, climate, and the environment.

Teacher Steve Walters explained: “We had a busy day with our marine science students presenting their aerosol experiment, our Climate Kids ambassadors reaching out to the younger crowd, and the Mission Bay Eco Club demonstrating with a water-shed model.”▪ Japanese Friendship Garden

By VICTORIA DAVIS | BEACH & BAY PRESS

Between traveling around the earth at 5 miles a second, conducting DNA sequencing and combustion

experiments, plus watching the sun rise and set 16 times a day, La Jolla marine bi-ologist Jessica Meir made time to video chat with 150 middle school students from the international space station.

“It really means so much for me to be able to share my life up here with all of you,” said Meir at the beginning of her livestream call with Scripps Institution of Oceanography and San Diego’s Fulton Middle School and Memorial Preparatory for Scholars and Athletes — two schools supported by Birch Aquarium’s Price Philanthropies Ocean Science Education Fund. “It really is one of the big objec-tives of my mission…to share this ex-perience with as many people as I can because I am so incredibly fortunate to be up here.”

Scripps hosted the livestreaming event, STEM to Stars, on Monday, Jan. 27, and students both from the middle schools and Scripps own graduate program had the opportunity to ask Meir pre-prepared questions about her time as a scientist and brand-new astronaut. The Q&A was emceed by UC San Diego astrophysicist Brian Keating and Scripps Oceanography Director Margaret Leinen.

“As a graduate student who comes from Title 1 schools in North Long Beach, much like the eighth-grade students who were visiting, I would have never in my wildest dreams imagined hearing an astronaut refer to us Scripps folks as ‘col-leagues,’” said Ivan Moreno, a second-year Ph.D. student in the Marine Biology pro-gram at Scripps who attended the lives-tream. “That short statement was one of the most inspiring moments of the event.”

For half an hour, Meir shared with stu-dents her long journey to becoming an astronaut. The biologist and physiologist has traveled around the world, studying animals that thrive in extreme habitats, her most notable adventure being the re-search she conducted observing emper-or penguins in Antarctica. But starting from writing down her dream to become an astronaut in her middle school diary, to applying to NASA in 2013, it’s been the mysteries of space that have always called out to Meir. And she’s not alone.

“Working for NASA is a long-term goal of mine and seeing former Scripps gradu-ate students reach their highest potentials through that same avenue is motivating,” said Moreno.

“This was the first time we’ve done a livestream with an alum from space,”

added Lauren Wood, director of Strategic Communications at Scripps. “We want-ed the livestream to be something shared with the community that would have an inspiring impact on those involved.”

Scripps has quite the portfolio when it comes to sending their students to space, Meir being one of three alumni who have traveled to the “final frontier.” Megan McArthur, who holds a Ph.D. in Oceanography from Scripps, traveled to space in 2009 and helped repair the Hubble telescope. Kate Rubins, who studied microbial biology as an under-graduate, became the f irst person to sequence DNA in space. Sally Ride, the first woman in space, was a long-time professor of physics at UC San Diego.

“There does seem to be a trend with UCSD and female astronauts,” said Meir, who entertained many a middle schooler with her demonstrations of zero gravity by f loating up to the ceiling and sus-pending her microphone in midair.

According to Wood, Scripps would like to host more livestreaming events like this in the future to encourage more Title 1 and graduate students in their galactic pursuits.

“The most important thing to do is to make sure that you identify your pas-sion and do what it is that you really care about,” said Meir to the students. “Once you’ve done that, you do need to work

BBP: How has playing wa-ter polo helped you grow as an individual and athlete?

McClain: Water polo, in my opinion, is one of the most difficult sports to play. Not only do you have to be

an extremely strong swim-mer, but you also need to know how to tread water, pass the ball, or block a ball (depending on your posi-tion). Polo has taught me a lot about managing my time and about staying account-able for my commitments. I 've also developed as an athlete by continuously in-creasing my strength and constantly increasing my goalie knowledge.

BBP: Any advice for anyone interested in coming out for the team next season?

McClain: Water polo is a great opportunity for anyone

looking to make some amaz-ing friends, and get in some good exercise. Our games and tournaments are al-ways a blast. We have lots of team bonding events and the whole team is so nice and welcoming. My only advice is to work hard and constantly strive for improvement. Never give up.

Callie McClain is always looking to create goals for her and her teammates and stop opposing teams from scoring their own.
