According to the calendar,Summer doesn’t end until Sept. 22but all the signs of autumn areshowing in Santa Monica. Schoolsis back in session, the TwilightConcert series is over and the occa-sional jacket is appearing after dark.
However, just because the daysare getting shorter doesn’t mean theopportunities for outdoor entertain-ment are dwindling as well and theSanta Monica Pier has a busy sched-ule of fall fun in keeping with its tra-dition as a community resource.
“Events have been a key part ofwhat draws people to the Pier sincethe 1980’s,” said the Pier’s DeputyDirector Jim Harris. “After the Piersuffered extensive damage during
the storms of 1983, many peopleassumed that the Pier was closedaltogether. The City of SantaMonica funded a series of eventscalled “Save the Pier Week” in orderto draw people to the Pier and letthem know that it was, indeed, stillup and running. From those earlyevents dawned the realization thatthe Pier is a wonderful event space,and in 1985 the now-iconic TwilightDance Series (renamed TwilightConcert Series in 2012) was born.”
TCS ended its eight-week runearlier this month and the future ofthe concert series will be debated atupcoming meetings of the PierCorporation and City Council butthe concerts are just one part of thefree outdoor programming.

Pier Heal the Bay readies a real pick me up for L.A.
Local environmental organization Heal the Bay issues a call today for Southland res-idents to join the largest, single-day volunteer event on the planet – the 33rd annualCoastal Cleanup Day, to be held from 9 a.m. to noon, Saturday, Sept. 16.
As part of a global effort, tens of thousands of concerned citizens in Los AngelesCounty will link on this one morning to remove harmful and unsightly trash and debrisfrom more than 50 coastal and inland sites.
Four of the inland locations are sites where habitat restoration work is underway, withvolunteers removing invasive plant species and harmful manmade debris. Active restora-tion sites participating in Coastal Cleanup Day include the LAX Dunes site and theBallona Wetlands Ecological Reserve, both in Playa del Rey; Alta Vicente Reserve inRancho Palos Verdes; and the Agoura Hills/Medea Creek restoration site in Agoura Hills.
Coastal Cleanup Day mobilizes thousands of volunteers across L.A. County who comeout in force to pick up trash throughout the region -- an area that spans close to 100square miles. Last year’s Coastal Cleanup day saw more than a half million people in 112countries -- and in 43 U.S. states -- remove 18.3 million pounds of debris from beaches,streams, and other waterways and parks.
Anyone who participates in the local cleanup will be rewarded with a free visit to Healthe Bay’s Santa Monica Pier Aquarium, 1600 Ocean Front Walk, between 12:30 and 5 p.m.on Coastal Cleanup Day.
Since 1990, Heal the Bay has coordinated the county’s Coastal Cleanup Day, organiz-ing an army of volunteers on the third Saturday of September. Recognized by theGuinness Book of World Records as the “largest garbage collection” ever organized, theannual volunteer effort provides Southern California residents with the chance to beau-tify their neighborhood, local waters, or beach. It’s also an ideal way to make new friendsand enjoy the outdoors.
Cigarette butts, plastic beverage bottles, and food wrappers remain the three mostcommon items found by Coastal Cleanup Day volunteers, followed closely by plasticstraws. Heal the Bay is calling for all to rethink their drink and go “strawless,” as sever-al local beach municipalities are mulling ordinances that would make straws availableonly on request.
Heal the Bay seeks volunteers of all ages and physical abilities to participate Sept. 16; noexperience necessary. Site captains will organize a diverse mix of individuals, families, neigh-borhoods, community groups, schools, faith-based groups, sports teams, and businesses.
To register, please visit healthebay.org/ccdNo special training or equipment is necessary. But in a bid to reduce waste even further,
Heal the Bay encourages volunteers to “BYO”-- bring their own buckets, reusable bags, andgloves to pick up trash. In addition to picking up debris, volunteers learn first-hand theimportance of keeping trash out of waterways and improve their own community environ-ments, thus protecting what they love – be it their local beach, park, avenue, or creek.
Runoff from more than 200,000 storm drains flowing out to Santa Monica and SanPedro bays causes the vast majority of local ocean pollution. By removing tons of debrisfrom beaches and inland neighborhoods, cleanup participants reduce blight, protectmarine animals, and boost the regional economy.
More than 50 sites have been confirmed this year, including more than 15 inland loca-tions. SCUBA dive sites will include Malibu Pier, Redondo Beach, Dockweiler State Beachand the Santa Monica Pier.

parked near the main campus and those haveheavy usage by staff and students.”
She said the school has a dedicated load-ing zone to try to discourage drop-off orpickup on Pearl.
SMC Sustainability Manager FerrisKawar said despite their success in encourag-ing alternative transit, there’s still more effi-ciencies to be found and the educationprocess is never-ending due to the constantpresence of new students who haven’t adapt-ed to the restrictions on campus.
“I think we have to get better, eventhough we are doing pretty darn well, youstill have frustration by students who have todrive in circles in the parking lot,” he said.“The parking is really there for people whotruly live in a really inconvenient area, likeThe Valley, that just can’t get here any otherway and it’s just not for people who livelocally can that reach us by bus or bike.”
He said several big transportation changeshave occurred at SMC in recent years includ-ing the dedicated loading zone, Expo open-ing, bike share and ride sharing partnerships.While no large-scale projects are planned forthis year, he said effort will be put into pro-
moting the many options now on campus.“We’ve been ratcheting up the message to
students, faculty and staff to get out of theircars and try something new,” he said.
One option is an SMC shuttle for stu-dents that encourages drivers to park at theirBundy campus and take the school’s bus toeither the main campus, the new StewartStreet building or the performing arts centerat the Broad Stage. The new Center forMedia and Design campus on Stewart Streetwill also be accessible by BBB lines 43, 16.
Outreach efforts include electronic mes-sage boards providing traffic/parking infor-mation, outreach on social media and directcommunication to students. However, offi-cials are also prepared for enforcement actionsand the SMCPD has asked for additional help.
The Santa Monica College PoliceDepartment (SMCPD) has increased staffaround all of the SMC campuses including thesatellite locations on Stewart Street and Bundy.
“We have a free website that staff and stu-dents can use to help them find the bestcommute to campus,” said SMC spokes-woman Grace Smith. “Plus, two carrideshare companies have vehicles parkednear the main campus and those have heavyusage by staff and students.”
Harris said the location can enhance theexperience.
“The atmosphere provided by the Pier iscompletely unique in that it comes fullyequipped with spectacular views, built-in fun& folly and is easily identifiable,” he said. “Thedifferent event locations each offer somethingcompletely unique as well, from the nostalgiceast half of the parking lot next to the NationalLandmark Merry Go-Round to the lively westhalf of the lot next to Pacific Park to the serenewest end hovering above the Pacific Ocean.”
September’s programming has free movies,political debates, opera and athletics. Paidevents include a fundraiser seafood festival.
Front Porch Cinema returns from Sept. 29– Oct. 20. The free outdoor movie series is seton the pier and styled like grandma’s frontporch, rocking chairs and all. The 2017 lineupis still in the works but will be available onlineat santamonicapier.org/frontporchcinema.
Early risers can take advantage of thefree ROGA program every Saturday fromSept. 16 – Oct. 21.

Trying to make something work is more frustrating when you’re under the impression that others are doingthis with no problem. Well, they aren’t -- not all of them. Most put on a good face. You might be surprisedwhat’s underneath. The lunar change from Scorpio will peel back a few masks. However you feel, you’re notalone in it.
Lunar Shift Peels Back the Mask
ARIES (March 21-April 19)On a gut level, you know the investments ofenergy, time or money that are right for you.Honor you limits and also your instincts towardoutrageous generosity.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20)Stop struggling. No one will gain from extrane-ous effort. There’s someone close with thepower to help or maybe even make the wholedilemma go away. Reach out.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21)The pressure is off -- except for, of course, thepressure you’re putting on yourself, which ismore or less a constant. Is this really neces-sary? Ease up a little and then, if you feel OKabout that, maybe a little more.
CANCER (June 22-July 22)Your instincts are honed. Believe it. You’ll auto-matically make the right risk to save what’simportant. With that knowledge, you can goabout your day worry-free.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)Success is linked to your creativity. Before youmake any actual efforts, put your imaginationto the task. Daydream your way into solutions.Think of 10 different ways you might solve theproblem.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)Are you in love with a person or with the storyyou have created about the person? Certainly,your projections affect the situation. Love andobjectivity don’t mix. The deeper the love thelesser the objectivity.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)You’re not proud of every single thing you’vedone, but that’s part of being human. Mistakescan’t be helped. Anyway, doing nothing wrongis a mistake, too -- the mistake of being boringand scared to grow.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)Someone who is truly on your wavelength --well, it’s a pretty rare find. Don’t let that stopyou from reaching out, though. Finish yourthoughts before communicating them. Jointhe dots. Make it easy for people to under-stand you.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)It hasn’t been easy to figure out what you real-ly want, because the answer keeps changing.That’s fine. All the more reason not to make amove yet. Wait until you’re more certain.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)Thinking energizes you. It doesn’t have to beyour own thinking, either; you’ll be energizedby what you read, hear and see, as long asthere’s a robust thought process behind it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)Not all plans are conscious. When your sub-conscious plans come together today, theresult will be a mixture of surprise and sat-isfaction.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)You’re not going to win alone, and neither willthe other person. Join forces in a game that’sbig enough for two. Become partners in seek-ing a solution with prizes for all.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Aug. 28)

Westside Food Bank’s main focus is onproviding as much nutritious food as possi-ble to our member agencies for distributionto low income clients in our service area.That is our mission and we adhere to itjudiciously, even following a self-imposedNutrition Policy to ensure the high nutrientquotient of our food distribution. We alsorecognize that people who need help tokeep food on the table also struggle toobtain items some might consider optional,but are truly equally essential to a fulfillinglife. Anyone caring for babies and infants,
understands that diapers, wipes, blankets,baby safety gear, etc. are absolute necessi-ties. Yet these items are costly, and they typ-ically are subject to about a 10% sales tax inour area. Feminine hygiene products areequally necessary and school supplies forchildren are also greatly needed. SoWestside Food Bank works to provide forthese needs. We ask for help from the com-munity and accept in-kind donations ofnew, unused diapers in all sizes, especiallylarger sizes, swim diapers, baby wipes, blan-kets, socks, toiletries: razors, feminineproducts, deodorant, soap, shampoo andconditioner, school supplies, and more.(Opened packages of diapers are welcome,
we recognize that babies grow quickly andparents are often stuck with open bags ofdiapers that no longer fit – we can usethose!) We also recognize that families incrisis also struggle to care for their pets, soWSFB accepts donations of pet food andsupplies so that those among our agencies’clients who have pets can have access toresources to better care for them. To makean in-kind donation of non-food or fooditems, visit our warehouse Monday throughFriday from 7am to 5pm. 1710 22nd Street,Santa Monica, CA 90404. 310-828-6016 x12or [email protected] for more informationon making an in-kind donation.www.wsfb.org
