Angels over Scripps Ranch

Thousands of spectators attended the Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Air Show this past weekend. Most residents of Scripps Ranch and surrounding communities in san Diego were able to see and hear the aerobatic performances by aircraft participating in the show.

The U.S. Navy’s famed Blue Angels aerobatic demonstration team closed out each show in spectacular fashion as always, and were the most visible from Scripps Ranch. Meanwhile, part of Kearny Villa Road was closed as the aircraft performed. Hundreds of cars pulled over to the sides of roads and highways to watch each day. Although law enforcement officials warned drivers not to do so, drivers parked their cars along Kearny Villa Road as well as along I-15 to gawk at the Blue Angels as they flew through the San Diego skies.

New signs for Neighborhood Watch

San Diego District 5 City Councilman Mark Kersey presented new signs for the Scripps Ranch Neighborhood Watch on Thursday, Sept. 21 at the San Diego Police Department Northeastern Division headquarters at 113396 Salmon River Road in Rancho Penasquitos. Kersey used District 5 Community Programs, Projects and Services (CPPS) funding for the new Neighborhood Watch signs for the Scripps Ranch community.

“Improving public safety is one of my top priorities on the San Diego City Council, so I’m proud to support community crime-prevention programs by funding these Neighborhood Watch signs specifically for Scripps Ranch,” Kersey said. “Scripps Ranch is one of the most engaged communities in San Diego with neighbors looking out for each other. This community has come together through devastating wildfires and that same determined, unified spirit resonates in Neighborhood Watch. When citizens organize themselves and work with law enforcement to keep a trained eye and ear on their communities, they reduce opportunities for crime by simply demonstrating a presence.”
