Bill Lenaway has spent the past eight years as the head Fallbrook High School boys tennis coach, and three years ago he had an extremely small roster. Lenaway will continue to coach the boys when that season resumes in March, but he has also taken over for Dave Ramirez as the Warriors' girls tennis coach. The 2016 Fallbrook girls program consists of 11 players – which does not allow enough participation for a junior varsity team – and only two of those players competed on the...

For those who want to leave a lasting impression, they also bring over food or sweets. When Ged’s Bakery and Cafe opened in downtown Fallbrook over the Labor Day weekend, owners John and Geraldine (known as Ged) Stoll left a sweet impression on Fallbrook. Ged’s Bakery and Cafe had its soft opening on Sept. 3, and by the end of its first day, all of the pastr...
WASHINGTON – The Internal Revenue Service today encouraged taxpayers to consider a mid-year tax withholding checkup following several new factors that could affect their refunds in 2017. Taking a closer look at the taxes being withheld can help ensure the right amount is withheld, either for tax refund purposes or to avoid an unexpected tax bill next year. The withholding review takes on even more importance this year given a new tax law change that requires the IRS to hold refunds a few weeks for some early filers in 2017 c...

Ian Murdock Special to The Village News In the post Oscar months, it is, normally, exceedingly challenging to find quality dramas - 2016 has been no exception. Fortunately, a few weeks ago I saw a preview for a film that would qualify - part of that standard, truth be told, includes no regrets for having paid full theater prices. Some of the great movies ever made tell "seemingly simple" life stories. Of course, what puts these mundane stories on a revered level, is the...

A 5-0 FPUD board vote Aug. 22 approved a $24,103 contract with GMC Electrical, Inc., to replace and repair the corrosion control system for the Sachse Tank.

It extends the life of the tank." The Sachse Tank is a... Full story

A pair of big plays – one offensively and the other defensively – by Del Norte High School proved to be the difference in the Nighthawks’ 20-13 victory over Fallbrook High School in a non-league football game Sept. 2 at Fallbrook Stadium. Del Norte’s offensive strike came during its second possession of the game – a possession the Nighthawks had to start inside its own 5 yard line thanks to a great punt by Fallbrook’s Joe Bishop. On the third play of the possession,...
