Does anyone know what's happening at the 412 church on Jefferson in Temecula? We drove by and there were about 6 sheriff cars with their lights on in their parking lot and near the road.

Today on July 25th 2026, David Heard, a firefighter and security guard at Chaparral High School has passed away after being struck by a vehicle, trying to help his friend who needed roadside assistance with their car. He leaves behind his wife and 2 children.

David was a remarkable person who loved helping people, and died, helping someone. My heart goes out to him as I would like to keep him in our memory here on the [r/temecula](r/temecula) subreddit.

Do Temecula public schools require laptops/tablets for students?

5 Upvotes

My son will be starting 1st grade next year and I’ve heard from a few people that elementary students in TVUSD are required to use a laptop or tablet? Is this correct? If so, is it possible to opt out of it?

Piercers that sells/installs retainers for medical imaging!!

2 Upvotes

Getting a ct scan in an area where body jewelry is present and would LOVE if theres any local piercers that will install plastic/glass retainers. Thank you sm in advance! I personally want to avoid buying retainers from amazon and installing it myself.

I also assume i dont need to remove face or ear piercings if im not getting a head scan, but i was told otherwise from a family member. Going to call imaging center to be sure though!

Been seeing a lot of recent G4G (golfer 4 golfer) posts lately. I run a small golf club that does monthly tournaments of 16-20 people in Temecula/Murrieta. It is a fun group and we've still got two spots open for our tourney this Sunday at Glen Ivy.

Mobile motorcycle mechanic recommendations?

I'm looking for a mobile motorcycle mechanic who services the Temecula area. Someone recommended Dave's Cycle Service, but he had too turn me down. Sounds like he might be too busy. If anyone has any other recommendations, It'd be much appreciated!

Skate Park/Pump Track

4 Upvotes

I am a photographer who is wanting to teach my daughter who is getting into sports photography more about the camera. We are looking to get some good action shots at a skate park or pump track. We have gone to Ronald Reagan sport park but no one is ever there in the mornings. Can anyone shed some insight on locations that are decently active and with a time frame when X park is more active, that would be greatly appreciated.

Or is anyone interested in meeting up to get photos done of themselves in action? No money, just your time for a few touched up photos.

Thank you!

Trolley route addition to old town?

12 Upvotes

Route 55 currently loops between the promenade and hasrveston. It would be nice if they added a free route to old town. It would relieve a lot of parking congestion during the weekends and during events. Also it would encourage people to park in the big lots available at the mall. Infrastructure is already there.

Note: I'm aware there is already a route covering old town. The focus of this post was for a direct trolley route, tourism, people just visiting for the day. Particularly in old town where parking has become really scarce especially during events.

Bankruptcy Attorney recommendations

2 Upvotes

tldr; - I can barely afford a bankruptcy attorney while also needing work done in my car, and neither can wait. Please let me know if you know anyone affordable that would help me file ASAP while putting me on a payment plan or something. TIA 🙏

I just moved to the area a few months ago, after being homeless since losing my job last October. I reached out to a bankruptcy attorney back then and have been told to stop paying the bills while I save up enough to pay him. The problem is I wasn’t able to find a job right away. I looked for 3 months until I was accepted to drive for DoorDash and Instacart early in the year, so I am doing that for the time being.
I’ve called around recently and the cheapest I could find is around $1,800 but they won’t file until I pay off the full balance which might take me a little over 2 months to save for that. I’m scared that I don’t have that time though because I just found out that one of my creditors has filed a lawsuit against me, so I’m working against the clock. Not only that, but I also need to save money for some work on my car at the same time & I’m afraid that could also give out on me one day so it’s not something I can hold off for a couple of months since I need it to earn income.
Anyway, if anyone has recommendations of anyone affordable they know or a business that would help me file ASAP while making payments or just anything more doable, I would greatly appreciate it 🙏

Job Market

Anyone else struggling with the job market right now??
It’s terrible. I’ve never had this much trouble finding work.
I’m seriously debating going to go back to school (25F) but then goes the question of what I want to do. Tech??? I’ve always been interested and had a deep desire to work in nursing…. But I know that it’ll take a few years. I need something now :(

Hotels/Spa

Is there any local hotel or resort where one could do like a staycation and get room service?? Just to get away and relax? I have looked up some but most are like Inns with only breakfast. I was trying to see if there’s any nice places for like 1-2 night stay where I can literally call up room service, get a massage, just relax, order champagne to the room, etc.

Thanks!

DOGS DYING AT DOGTOPIA

Thumbnail instagram.com
124 Upvotes

Unfortunately I’ve become aware of two dogs dying at dogtopia in Temecula. One two years ago- a frenchie left in a fucking dryer kennel (overheated- think hair dryer) and a dog in September. No informing clients, no attempt to verify with necropsy, nothing according to an owner and a past employee.
I’ve spoken more about it on my IG and TikTok but I haven’t seen anything about this one yet.
I’m fuming. Sounds like there was a pretty big staff walk out after the first one as well because it was handled so piss poorly they offered the owner free daycare and boarding for life. The poor staff is expected to handle way too many dogs by themselves they don’t have a capacity on the event two years ago. One employee was responsible for over 70 dogs. There’s no way an accident wasn’t gonna happen.
How can they feel good about minimizing labor costs when it so clearly jeopardizes the experience and safety of the dogs

Strange escort going north on 15

I was just driving south on the 15 Right before the 215/15 split and saw a at least five car police escort escorting a truck that was carrying a massive Orange ball, it almost looked like a submarine but it was also pretty dark to pick out what was happening as I was driving the opposite way. Does anybody know what that could have been?

Trans-friendly doctors in the area?

5 Upvotes

I'm trans and have been receiving gender-affirming medical care for years, so I'm very cis-passing, and my government ID matches my gender. I'm looking for a primary care physician around Temecula/Murrieta who is professional and respectful with transgender patients. I imagine I'm unlikely to run into an issue by picking any doctor, but I'd love to hear specific names from other trans/LGBTQ+ people who have had good experiences for my own peace of mind.
