Briefing RSM, Aug. 27: Victim ID'd, WWII Vets to Speak

Worthwhile notes for Rancho Santa Margarita-area residents.

Taking a look at what's going down and coming up for residents in the Rancho Santa Margarita area.

• Looking for something really interesting tonight? Hear about history straight from those who lived it. Veterans of World War II will be at San Francisco Solano Catholic Church on Tuesday relaying their experiences and taking questions. It's recommended you bring a dish for the potluck at 6 p.m. Representatives of the Army, Navy and Marines will be present.

• The Orange County Coroner has identified the 21-year-old victim of a single-car crash on the 241 as Cole Smith. The Foothill Ranch man died when his SUV rolled over and he was ejected from the vehicle.

• How much is too much and how much is just right when it comes to a babysitter? Consider that question and your reasonable options in Smart Spending's "What's the Going Rate for A Babysitter."

• Check out the final results and a levitating horse from the Rancho Mission Viejo Rodeo over the weekend. 

• Are you for or against the Saddle Crest development north of Cook's Corner? Our guess is you're against it, and so are the people who live out there

• Residents living in the communities surrounding Rancho Santa Margarita who are serviced by Waste Management take note: Next week your trash service will be different from normal.
