The County Airports newsletter Plane News indicated that Fallbrook Community Airpark had 22,728 operations in 2004, which places it seventh among the 12 public airports in San Diego County. The 2004 traffic count represents a 24-percent increase over the 2003 count of 18,292 operations. Fallbrook ranked ninth among the airports in 2003 and surpassed Oceanside Municipal Airport and Borrego Valley Airport during 2004. “I think it’s the improvements that are ongoing at the airport,” said Peter Drinkwater, the Director of County...
The Packing House Restaurant was recently sold with the ownership transfer scheduled to occur on July 1. The establishment, housed in the formidable 1930 El Real Hotel with its curious wine bottle stained glass windows, is located in the heart of Fallbrook and has long been a gathering place for locals and visitors alike. The restaurant at 125 South Main Street is currently owned by Jason Klingsberg, who told the Village News, “Selling the business was not an easy decision.” “It needed more attention,” he said. “I couldn’t le...

Having read recent Village News articles and two warnings from Sheriff’s Deputy Sgt. Rich Hendrickson about a potentially “bad” summer, I think I have a fairly clear understanding regarding current acceptable behavior for those who reside in Fallbrook or nearby communities. If I am correct, in order to avoid causing offense that might result in injury to myself or others, it appears that I should conduct myself as follows: • I should never help a neighbor or friend who is being ganged up on and/or injured but concent...
I live in the Alta Vista area. There are a lot of houses with nice landscaping and gardens with many interesting kinds of plants and trees. A couple of days ago I was out walking. I decided to turn down a little side street and was appreciating the various styles of the yards and houses when a man in an SUV pulled up to me and said, “Can I help you find your way?” I said, “Oh, no. Thanks.” Then he said, “What are you looking for?” and I said, “Nothing, I’m just taking a walk.” He just kinda looked at me like he didn’t be... Full story
I was alarmed at the tone of your article on the protest in Fallbrook. You missed the entire point of the protest because you were so busy connecting the law-abiding Minutemen to the derogatory term “vigilantes.” You then went on to gush over the “diversity” and self-restraint of the counter-protestors, who were flying a foreign flag. I am a Minuteman, so I have a bias toward them. Why you could not state that it was the Minutemen who were peaceful and law-abiding, who are only asking that the law apply to all equally...
After moving to Fallbrook from Northern California, upon settling in to our new home I began to look for work. With my husband and daughter commuting to San Marcos every day for work and school and the climbing gas prices, I was forced to look for employment locally to save on gas. After watching the paper for several months and applying for jobs that didn’t pan out, I sought the help of the People to People Employment Agency here in Fallbrook. When required paperwork was completed it was only a short time before I was h...
I would like to respond further to Donna Miller’s letter to the editor (June 2) where she comments that, “Fr. Bud joked, ‘If I was a pantheist, I wouldn’t be a hunter — I’d be killing God.’” I am glad to know that Fr. Bud is not a pantheist based on his profession to her. Although, I don’t see how being a hunter has anything to do with it. A pantheist believes that God permeates creation and is in union with it as opposed to being separate from Creation. But in order for any pantheist to live they must eat. And, in order to... Full story
When a foreign flag is waved here in the United States it makes me very angry! This is a sign of disrespect. This is the United States and Americans have a right to peacefully protest something they think is wrong, such as illegal immigration. Mexican flags and Aztec dancers belong in Mexico....
Thanks for the great article. I have been involved with hang gliding and paraGLIDING (NOT paraSAILING!) for many years here in British Columbia and a common destination for us Western Canadian pilots is Lake Elsinore. The site is definitely world famous amongst free flight pilots and it would be a shame to lose it as a result of poor decision-making. Thanks again....
White racist XENOPHOBE America has declared war on the Latino race, myself included; therefore, where there is action there will be for certain a reaction, a reaction that white America is now beginning to regret as WE Brown peoples are now “circling the wagons” for our very own survival as a race. ALL these anti-immigrant organizations are just using these “border” agendas to hide their true extremist anti-Latino racial prejudices. As a backlash to these attacks, WE are now being “forced” to unite ALL Latinos, regardless...
Wake up, Fallbrook! I’m confident that most of you have noticed that only a handful of star spangled banners flew over our central area on Memorial Day; only a few will fly on Flag Day June 14. Why? Because a handful of people decided to put up Fallbrook merchants’ banners on downtown lampposts without first thinking beyond tomorrow. Most of us would agree they are attractive; however, those responsible failed to realize that no banners may fly above our national symbol — the star spangled banner. The US flags flying proud...
First of all, we pray for the souls of Edward Kaicher and Bernard Rapp (also known as “Fathers Bud and Bernie”) as well as their apparent chosen spokeswoman, Terry Hawthorne of St. Peter’s Church. I was one of the first three alter boys at St. Peter’s many years ago and it’s disturbing to have to complain publicly about the misdeeds and heretical theology that is emanating from St. Peter’s. Heresy is not a private affair; it taints all of us, and immortal souls are in jeopardy because of it, though the three mentioned a...
“You can’t live without us,” say the invaders. Hmmm. Prior to the Mexican invasion, we Americans built the greatest technological society the world has ever known. We beat two great world powers in WW II. We eliminated many lethal diseases. We built computers and the Internet. We sent a man to the moon and returned him safely. Now the idea that the USA can’t function without Third World immigrants picking fruits and vegetables... Well, what are you people snorting??... Full story
I constantly read the Village News to inform my self about issues in the community. In your latest issue, I was deeply worried when I saw a picture of a man holding a sign that read “Hiring Illegal Aliens is Illegal and Un-American.” I am strongly opposed to the immigrant sweeps that are taking place in Fallbrook. I oppose these sweeps because at one point I was an illegal immigrant myself. I am originally from Guerro, Mexico, and have lived in the United States for 14 years. I have attempted and continue to attempt to ful... Full story

BONSALL — Lucca Salon expresses their thanks to all the members of the community who donated used cell phones to their effort to provide them for use by abused women. Affiliates of the salon have taken another box full of phones to a police department contact who will program the phones to dial 911 only. The phones will be distributed to women considered at high risk for abuse. “Your old phone could save a woman’s life,” Lucca associates said. “Lucca is one of the only places that collects phones year ’round for this purpos...
Healthy living includes the need to drink clean water. Most of us have heard that eight glasses a day is needed; however, this is a very simplified answer about which there is much controversy, and here’s why: the numbers to calculate your water requirements are tricky, as there indeed are many variables such as size, activity level, climate, body temperature, age, gender, hormonal activity, etc. Thus, generally for a healthy adult the recommended amount of water is about 34 to 68 fluid ounces, or four to eight glasses, p...
