  • After a Successful Two-Day Event Over the Weekend, the Second
    After a successful two-day event over the weekend, The Second Annual Justin Lofton Charity Golf Tournament presented by CollegeCmplete.com, accomplished the goal of surpassing last year’s inaugural event. Hosted by NASCAR Camping World Truck Series (NCWTS) driver Justin Lofton, the golf tournament had over 100 golfers, a supportive list of sponsors, and an impressive turnout for the Saturday night auction. “The support that we got this year meant a lot. I am so glad to be able to provide more for the kids at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Imperial Valley,” Lofton said. “I can’t thank everyone enough for their involvement. Whether it was playing in the tournament, sponsoring a tee, bidding on an auction item – it all means more for those kids, and to be able to help them is a great thing.” Lofton, who is from nearby Westmorland, California, chose to host the event near his hometown so that the community could be more involved. The Boys and Girls Clubs of Imperial Valley was his charity of choice for the event, and is located just miles from the golf course. Currently, the Boys and Girls Clubs of Imperial Valley serve over 600 Imperial Valley youth, providing kids a safe, supervised, and affordable place to go every day after school. Nearly 200 kids are greeted daily by caring adult staff and participate in character-building, educational and recreational programs all while making friends and having fun. Concentrating on youth who need the most support, the Club provides programs in four key areas: health and fitness, education, the arts, and most importantly, in character development.

International Speedway, his first top five of the season. • Second-place finish at Dover equaled his best career finish in the series. He was second in last year’s spring race at TMS, .936 seconds behind winner Ron Hornaday Jr. • Fifth in the series championship standings, 22 points behind leader Justin Lofton and six behind fourth-place James Buescher. Only nine points separate Kligerman from third-place Ty Dillon. • All three top 10 finishes have come at superspeedway races. • Has one top-five and two top-10 finishes in three previous NCWTS starts at TMS. • Has completed all possible laps – 1,007 – in the first six races this season, one of just five drivers to complete every lap. RAM DRIVER QUOTES “We have a new Reese Towpower RAM this weekend. The guys at the Penske Racing motor shop were able to find us some engine improvements over the last couple of months and hopefully that’ll help our performance. We’re coming off a great momentum builder at Dover getting that breakthrough run that we’ve been looking for all year. Texas is one of my favorite tracks and the June race is one of my favorite mile-and-a-half races.

Drought, dread and family in the American Southwest By Cally Carswell CONTENTS Editor’s note When dreams dry up We knew it was going to be a weird summer when it barely snowed all winter. By the end of May, the last patches of white had vanished from 11,401-foot Mount Lamborn, and the words, “Never seen anything like it,” slipped out of the mouths of even our most ardent climate skeptics. A month later, irrigation ditches stopped flowing, and skies grew murky from wildfires. An oppressive atmosphere settled over our valley, like the aftermath of a presidential tweet storm. That made it even weirder when, on July 8, a friend spotted what looked like a body floating down turgid Minnesota Creek, just outside of town. A microburst had dumped three-quarters of an inch of rain in less than an hour, swelling the dismal trickle to a full-fledged flood. The man was lucky to survive; he’d been swept into the creek a half-mile upstream while trying to jump across it. Somehow he dragged Don Bustos adjusts the headgate to the acequia that runs through his and neighboring farms and orchards in himself out, muddy and cold as a crawdad. Española, New Mexico, where his ancestors began farming more than 400 years ago. STEFAN WACHS How quickly and violently the climate tables can turn in the West, and how unprepared for this FEATURE we generally are.
