SUMMARY:Crown City Summer Fitness Challenge
DESCRIPTION:A Virtual Event presented by the Optimist Club of Coronado \n \nRegistration is now open for the inaugural fitness event that runs from July 4 through Labor Day\, Sept. 1. The entry fee is $50 and sign up is available at the top of the Optimist Club home page at optimistclubofcoronado.org. \nThis is something new for Coronado – sort of. During the pandemic\, in 2020\, the City of Coronado sponsored a “virtual” activity challenge celebrating the 130th birthday of Coronado. Over 1\,800 individuals and 140 teams participated in that event. Virtual means that a participant performs one or more of their favorite physical activities\, then logs the amount of time it took on a website ’activities entry’ page for the event. The site keeps track of how all participants are doing\, with results displayed and continually updated. \nOne of the fun things about a virtual event is that individuals can participate even if they are not in Coronado — family members for example\, or people who travel. Even deployed service members could form a team or be part of a family team. Already signed up is a team that calls themselves the “Price Club.” Heading up that team is renown Coronado resident\, Peggy Price\, 102 years young! Her son Jimmy said that when her name and birth date were entered\, the website kept asking if her birth date was correct before finally accepting it. Of course\, teams from a variety of clubs in Coronado are most welcome. \nFundraising is a primary goal but so are having fun and staying physically fit. “Hours-per-Week” is the primary measure of achievement: Bronze – 1 hour; Silver – 2 hours; Gold – 3 hours; and Diamond – 4 hours or more. The challenge is appropriate for anyone regardless of age or health situation. A variety of fitness activities are included in the challenge with obvious differences in the stress levels associated with each. Several awards\, individual and team\, will take these differences into account. \nOnce registered\, simply log your time doing fitness activities during the 60-day period. An awards celebration is planned for Saturday\, Sept. 6 at 9 am in Spreckels Park. \nThe Optimist Club would greatly appreciate your participation in this event and hopes that it turns into a fun annual summer event. And remember\, all the funds raised will assist youth of Coronado in reaching their full potential.

SUMMARY:"Down to the Bone" Caitlin Rother and the McStay Family Murders
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of true crime and investigative insight as New York Times bestselling author Caitlin Rother discusses her latest book\, Down to the Bone\, a riveting deep dive into the San Diego-based McStay family murders. This high-profile case captured national attention—featured on the cover of People magazine and in several TV documentaries—and led to the conviction and death sentence of Joseph McStay’s business associate\, Charles “Chase” Merritt. \nAt this special event thanks to the San Diego Writers Festival\, Rother will take the audience behind the scenes of her reporting\, unpacking how assumptions\, missteps\, and courtroom controversy—including claims of confirmation bias and prosecutorial misconduct—shaped the outcome of one this disturbing case. \nBooks will be available to purchase thanks to Bay Books Coronado. A book signing will follow the event.  \n\nABOUT DOWN TO THE BONE\nIn her latest work of investigative nonfiction\, DOWN TO THE BONE\, New York Times bestselling author Caitlin Rother explores the messy high-profile case of the McStay family murders\, which were featured on the cover of People magazine and in several TV documentaries. Rother takes readers step-by-step through the decisions\, assumptions\, and theories by detectives and prosecutors that ultimately led Joseph McStay’s waterfall builder\, Charles “Chase” Merritt\, to be sent to death row after a trial marked by accusations of confirmation bias and prosecutorial misconduct. \nJoseph McStay was last seen on Feb. 4\, 2010\, when he had lunch with Charles “Chase” Merritt. Subsequently unable to reach Joseph for days\, Merritt urged Joseph’s mother and brother to contact authorities\, while Joseph’s other associate\, Dan Kavanaugh\, called the police himself. Joseph’s brother Michael finally reported the family missing on Feb. 15\, but detectives found no blood or sign of a struggle in the house\, and no clues to the family’s whereabouts. Soon\, Merritt and Kavanaugh were pointing fingers at each other as they fought for control of Joseph’s business. The only thing that key parties in this case could agree on was that this case was about money. \nWithin months of the family’s remains being discovered\, San Bernardino County sheriff’s detectives had focused their investigation on Merritt\, despite the lack of forensic evidence tying him to murder at the house or in his truck and belongings. During a six-month trial\, the defense illustrated that Kavanaugh\, who was never considered a suspect and ducked a subpoena to testify\, had the same alleged motive as Merritt. \nThis book takes a behind-the-scenes look at the flaws in the two sheriff’s investigations and the prosecution’s firm belief that they got the right man\, despite contradictions in their timeline and the unanswered questions about when and where this family was killed. \nAfter reviewing voluminous court files\, including 1\,200 exhibits\, hundreds of photos\, and thousands of pages of records\, Rother was able to paint a comprehensive and compelling portrait of this family’s life at the time they disappeared. In addition to these public records\, Rother’s book is based on her own interviews and crucial discovery materials—including witness interviews and investigative reports—that took a dozen years to obtain. This deep research enabled her to disclose new and exclusive case details that have never been released publicly\, to describe the eventful journey to trial\, and to sensitively portray the lasting impact on Joseph’s and Summer’s families. \n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR\nCaitlin Rother has written or co-authored 16 books\, ranging from true crime to thrillers and memoir. A New York Times-bestselling author and investigative journalist\, Rother worked nearly 20 years for daily newspapers. Writing books full-time since 2006\, she draws from decades of watchdog reporting on topics from addiction to suicide\, mental illness\, murder\, government\, political corruption and the criminal justice system. A popular speaker\, she has appeared more than 250 times on TV\, radio\, and podcasts as a crime expert. A former writing instructor of 10 years\, she coaches a limited number of aspiring author clients. In her spare time\, she goes ocean swimming\, sings and plays keyboards in a jazzy\, bluesy trio called In the Lounge.

SUMMARY:Yard Sale Fundraiser for Childhood Cancer Research
DESCRIPTION:The Coronado High School Jr. Optimist Club\, in conjunction with the Optimist Club of Coronado\, is hosting its annual fundraiser for childhood cancer research on Saturday\, July 12\, from 8 to 11:30 am at 777 H Ave\, and the community’s support is needed to make it a success. \nThe Jr. Optimist Club (JOI) is an international service and leadership organization focused on learning how to make a positive impact on the community. For example\, the club is involved in a multitude of activities\, which have included writing birthday cards to Veterans\, making holiday cards for residents in assisted living homes\, participating in Honor Flight San Diego\, organizing beach clean ups and food drives (Souper Bowl of Caring)\, and supporting events and efforts of the Coronado Community Center\, FOCUS\, PAWS\, and the Coronado Optimist Club. The group has even adopted a school in Barrio Logan that educates young mothers and expecting teens. \nOne of the biggest and most rewarding campaigns is the annual yard sale\, which is run in conjunction with the adult Optimist Club. It is so rewarding because 100% of the profits raised are used to support childhood cancer research. For the past several years\, yard sale funds have been donated to the St. Baldrick’s Foundation\, a charity dedicated to finding cures for childhood cancers\, and the plan is to again donate this year’s funds to St. Baldrick’s. \nThe sale this year features a wide selection of high-quality items\, including bikes\, surfboards\, outdoor furniture\, rugs\, a TV\, a ping pong table\, a baking stone\, clothing\, brand-new shoes and cleats\, craft items and much more. Thus\, there will be options for everyone. While organizing this yard sale can be a huge feat\, the best part about the JOI club is the lifelong friendships these kids make through activities such as this yard sale. \n“It really is fun looking at all the items\, meeting people in my neighborhood\, and hanging out with friends all for a good cause\,” said former JOI member Andrew Borgie. \nVisit the sale on Saturday\, July 12\, between 8 and 11:30 am at 777 H Ave and help support the Coronado JOI club and childhood cancer research. \nFor more information on JOI\, the Adult Optimist Club\, or the yard sale\, please contact JOI club advisor Erin at 619-675-1323. \nNov. 2009 – Shoppers look through the variety of goods for sale at a designated stop along the A1A Super Scenic 72-mile Garage Sale.
