• La Jolla High School juniors are being offered an opportunity to show off their leadership skills with the Rotary Youth Leadership Awards. To receive the award, students must submit an application describing their leadership experiences, as well as a short essay on their best and worst leadership experiences. Winners will join more than 250 San Diego juniors for a three-day leadership conference, April 20-22 in Idyllwild. Transportation to and from the conference, all meals and expenses will be provided by Rotary. The Rotary Club of La Jolla will select and sponsor 12 La Jolla High School juniors for the award.

Local photographer (and La Jolla Village News contributor) Sharon Hinckley has compiled some of her best shots of La Jolla for her first-ever La Jolla calendar. Photos range from surfers braving the waves at Windansea to stunning coastal sunsets, and from the wisteria draping its namesake cottage at the La Jolla Historical Society to the incredible views seen in and around the Jewel. The calendar can be found online at www.lajollaart.com, as well as at several stores in La Jolla, listed on the website.
