STREET RACING. A new ordinance proposed to the Dallas City Council would allow police to impound cars used in illegal street racing and penalize spectators. Council members on the Public Safety Committee supported the ordinance police proposed and will pass it on to the full City Council for consideration, District 10 Councilman Adam McGough says. If approved, authorities could seize cars suspected of violating the ordinance. If car owners are caught at an illegal event without insurance, their vehicles could also be confiscated. Spectators could be fined up to $500.

RISD roundup

Richardson ISD officials announced plans to add outdoor all-class graduation ceremonies in July for the class of 2020. The events will follow graduations previously planned for June. Seniors and their parents had been distributing an online petition protesting the limited June graduations. The district conducted a survey, presenting four options. The survey results showed that seniors preferred an in-person graduation option instead of a virtual option.

THE WORD DO YOU HAVE A CHILDHOOD MEMORY FROM BO BO CHINA?

“My parents would go to BoBo’s at least twice a month. My mother wouldn’t eat any other Chinese food. Once she became ill with dementia, she would ask by name for the fried rice. Good memories. I’m sad to see they sold it.”

TANYA DECKER

“We lived at Chesterton and Plano Road for years in the early ’80s, and the wonderful smell from BoBo China would waft toward us many evenings. Loved taking my kids there to watch big woks over the flames.”

DEB MCALISTER HOLLAND

“Best egg rolls! It was a staple for our family growing up. Even today if I am ever not feeling well my dad will show up on my doorstep with sizzling rice soup and an egg roll. It instantly makes me feel better.”

JULIE CURRY HIGGINBOTHAM

“I live in OLH, but I grew up in the ’burbs. Bobo China was a regular destination for our family. I’ve been going since I was a little kid.”

Good neighbors

The Lake Highlands Women’s League distributed $100,000 to schools and nonprofits, with special emphasis on groups providing COVID-19 relief. Organizations assisting with food, rent, utilities, home essentials and medications were given top priority and larger grants, said Disbursements Chair Carolyn Brunkenhoefer. “It has been heartwarming to hear how all of the organizations are working together to get through the crisis.”

MEANT TO BEE

LESSONS WE CAN LEARN FROM THE HONEYBEES

“Getting a beehive, especially in a backyard or urban setting, is a lot more like getting a chicken coop than it is like getting a birdhouse.”

Did you know that male honey bees don’t have a father? A novel aspect of honey bee reproduction is that they get their genetics straight from the queen, and they have a grandfather but not a father.

That tidbit was enough to intrigue Ryan Giesecke to get interested in the honey bee game. A beekeeper had talked his ear off at a barbecue after a bee had peacefully landed on Giesecke.

“I turned and kind of gently tried to blow her off of my shoulder,” he says. “The guy I was talking to said, ‘Wow,

that’s a really good reaction. You’re not scared of bees. You should be a beekeeper.’”

Six months later, his new friend called him and said, “Remember how you wanted to be a beekeeper?” Suddenly, he had his first two hives. At first, he thought it was going to be a two-hive hobby, but his experience with ladders and power tools resulted in him removing bees from the walls at his aunt’s, uncle’s and parents’ homes. Next, he founded Honey Bee Relocation Services. Here are his thoughts on what we can learn from the hobby:

Story by MARISSA ALVARADO | Photography by DANNY FULGENCIO

IMPORTANT

BEE NEWS: “There’s a lot of confusing media coverage on our bee situation in recent years. You read one article that says, ‘Beepocalypse, the bees are all dying.’ And the next article says, ‘We have just as many honeybee colonies in the U.S. this year as we did last year.’ The reality is that both are correct. We’ve seen some alarming die-off rates in recent years, and yet every year, beekeepers make up the difference and divide hives to make new hives. We have a few more honeybee colonies than the year before on average. We have other pollinators, but honeybees are important agricultural pollinators. It’s important to be able to bring in a heavy load of pollinators to a crop when you need pollinators on that crop.”

LESSONS WE CAN LEARN:

“In our beginner beekeeping classes, I talk about the lessons we can learn from bees. A book called ‘Honeybee Democracy’ talks about honeybees voting on new nest sites when a colony is trying to find a new home. The lesson that I take away from that is that those honeybees are always in favor of a good home. That’s a lesson that humans could benefit from. I talk to youth groups about the value of teamwork in a honeybee colony. One worker bee makes about an eighth of a teaspoon of honey in her entire life, but a good thriving colony on a good year may make 100 pounds of honey. It’s about everybody doing their part to make something great happen.”

HIS ROLE IN THE BEE COMMUNITY: “I’m currently president of Trinity Valley Beekeepers Association in Dallas and president of Metro Beekeepers Association in Fort Worth. Both are 501(c)(3) educational groups. Both clubs have a youth program teaching the value of traditional methods of doing things. If you look at the average age of commercial beekeepers in the United States, it’s been on a steady climb for decades. We think introducing young people to this is important if we’re going to have the next generation of beekeepers.”

WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM BEES DURING THE CURRENT PANDEMIC:

“We can certainly draw some parallels from the pandemic to some of the challenges facing our bees. A lot of the pest problems that we have in our hives are examples of jumping species — not that different from the coronavirus situation. For example, the Varroa mites that are a major contributing problem for hive dieoff are responsible for about 75% of colony die-offs. Varroa mites were a problem for an Asian species of honeybee that we don’t even have in the U.S., but Varroa mites figured out how to parasitize a new species and quickly spread around the world.”

HIS ADVICE: “I frequently remind people that getting a beehive, especially in a backyard or urban setting, is a lot more like getting a chicken coop than it is like getting a birdhouse. You are committing to be the beekeeper. There is management involved. If you just throw a bunch of bees in your backyard and don’t do what you should, then bees become a problem for your neighbors. It’s not time intensive or expensive, you can spend as much as you choose to on it. But it is a commitment. They’re only going to sting us for a very good reason.”

J is for July 4th Parade

The annual July 4th parade has been a source of family-friendly fun. Don’t you miss the times when summer days were slow, children slurped snow cones to keep cool and folks celebrated America with a parade past the high school? In the past, the parade inched along Church Road toward the recreation center. Fire trucks, military moms and Boy Scouts were there, as well as LHHS Wranglers, cheerleaders, drum majors, Bell Boys and Highlandettes. Children rode in decorated bikes, trikes and wagons.

L is for Lake Highlands High School

The neighborhood high school has created notable grads, including TV show host Chris Harrison, former NASA astronaut James F. Reilly and country singer Granger Smith. Nicole Bilderback starred in movies “Clueless” and “Bring It On.” Erin Aldrich competed in the 2000 Summer Olympics. Annie Clark (known as St. Vincent) has gone on to become a world-renowned singer. Plus: Morgan Fairchild starred in movies for the past five decades.

Y is for CC Young

CC Young is a senior living center for both independent living and assisted living. It serves about 450 residents and employs about 500. Residents recently made headlines, including the Woodies, a group of volunteer woodworkers, and the Happy Hookers, who crochet mats from plastic bags for the homeless.

Z is for Coach Z

During LHHS former coach Mike Zoffuto’s tenure from 1987-1994, several traditions were born, including The Boneyard nickname for Wildcat-Ram Stadium and Lake Highlands’ many uniform combinations. His teams won with the Wishbone offense, and he became known for the “Jerseygate” game against Richardson in 1992 when a speedy punt returner switched jerseys with a teammate to throw off the defense. Zoffuto claimed the players original jersey was torn.

UN-BELLEW-VABLE

THIS SUPER SENIOR WAS A CHEERLEADER, ACTRESS AND OVERALL SOCIAL BUTTERFLY AT LAKE HIGHLANDS HIGH SCHOOL

Jill says. “We really fought for her to be in the classroom and not in special ed because she bonded with a lot of those kids. What really surprised us when she hit junior high and high school, is that she made a lot of friends that didn’t go to White Rock. We thought it would be harder for her to make friends in that way, but she makes friends wherever she goes.”

Her independence, ability to befriend any schoolmate and active part in extracurriculars turned Julia into a social butterfly.

“You’d walk the halls, and everybody would greet her. I think that’s a testament to her because she just puts herself out there. You can really learn a lot from her,” Jill says.

Her character has been a great example for her 14-year-old sister, who is a freshman at LHHS. Sarah enjoys going to school with her big sister because she’s so well-known around campus.

“Sarah thinks this is the greatest thing because she says, ‘Everybody knows who I am. Oh, there’s Julia’s sister.’ Sometimes, she’ll have teachers that call her Julia, and she’s not resentful. Julia is such a positive influence in people’s lives, that she sees it as a real benefit.”

IF YOU WENT TO WILDCAT FOOTBALL

GAMES this past season, you may have seen Julia Bellew cheering on the team and blowing kisses to her friends. Or if you caught the Lake Highlands High School musical in January, you may have seen her strutting her dance moves and singing in the chorus.

Julia loves performing in front of an audience because she doesn’t see herself as someone who has a disability, Down syndrome.

Instead, she wants to focus on fine arts when she attends Richland College next year. While she takes a few special education courses, she hopes to audit a few other courses in fine arts.

This will be a significant shift from her super busy schedule during her senior year. It was so busy that she had to give up choir in order to stay in cheerleading and theater.

“The [cheerleading] coach is amazing, and he allowed her just to do whatever she wanted to participate in, and so she cheered on the football field where she loved to blow kisses to the audience while she was cheering,” says Jill Bellew, Julia’s mother.

Besides cheerleading, Julia says her favorite part of senior year was theater. She was part of the chorus in the January production of “Mary Poppins.”

“I love working with friends,” Julia says.

Julia has been fortunate to have a very close group of friends since her days at White Rock Elementary.

“It’s just crazy to me that she’s graduating because we went all the way through,”

Some academics have been a hardship for Julia due to her Down syndrome, but she stayed independent. Even when she had an aide as she transitioned to Lake Highlands Junior High, she didn’t understand why some random person was following her around.

One of her greatest hardships has been the transition to online classes and the loss of senior activities like Senior Tea and graduation due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“She loves going to school, she loves seeing her friends, so that’s been hard,” Jill says.

Julia says that her new favorite part of her senior year has been the gifts she’s received by different neighbors as part of the “Adopt A Senior” program. Julia and her family look forward to the postponed senior graduation and her attending Richland in the fall.

“Everyone has always accepted her and has been great,” Jill says. “She wants to be a part, just like any other teenager.”

Julia Bellew didn’t let her Down syndrome prevent her from being involved in extracurriculars.

KATY SPAULDING

TEN SENIORS TO WATCH

MEET THE PRIDE OF LAKE HIGHLANDS HIGH SCHOOL

While graduation has been postponed, the top 10 ranked students at Lake Highlands High School deserve recognition and celebration. Here are their post-high school plans as well as their advice.

What are your plans after LHHS?

I will attend the University of Oklahoma to pursue nursing.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

Get involved, do your work and make the most of your time at school.

LAUREN MORAN

What are your plans after LHHS?

I will attend Texas A&M University and major in business at the Mays Business School.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

Our school has so many great things to offer. From sports, choir and band, to art, dance and service organizations, LHHS has it all. Get plugged into something you enjoy and give it your all. It will make your high school experience that much better.

OSADOLOR OSAWEMWENZE

What are your plans after LHHS?

I will attend Stanford University, majoring in communications, working to become a creative director, and extend my brand through graphic design and podcasting.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

Become comfortable with the

unknown. You may have plans, but one thing can change everything. Realize grades and SAT scores aren’t everything. Schools are adopting a holistic view. They want to see you. Make your essays as personal as possible. What separates you from others is your story. We are complex individuals. Colleges appreciate your honesty and your passion. Don’t be afraid to ask for help and utilize resources. Become best friends with your counselor. You don’t have to invent an app or cure a disease or be a big athlete to get into Stanford. You have to have passion. You have to want to see change in the world.

ANGELA LANDRY

What are your plans after LHHS?

I plan to attend the University of Texas at Austin and study business.

GRACIE TOOMBS

What are your plans after LHHS?

I will attend the University of Texas at Austin to study psychology.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

You can accomplish anything you set your mind to as long as you work hard and stay confident in yourself.

GRIFFIN ALLEN

What are your plans after LHHS?

I will be going to Texas A&M in the fall. I’m going to major in business,

specializing in either finance or accounting. I would also really like to study abroad during my time in college, probably somewhere in Europe.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

I’d say to just take as many AP classes as possible to try to get credit for college.

LUCY HAMILTON

What are your plans after LHHS?

I’m headed to the University of Alabama to study business and participate in the honors college.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

I encourage students to make the most of their time and get involved with as much as they can because it truly makes the high school experience so much better.

SAM BROKAW

What are your plans after LHHS?

I plan to go Texas A&M University next year where I will study engineering.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

My advice would be to know your priorities. If you know what you value then it can help you to better partition your time. Knowing your priorities can help you remove unnecessary distractions that prevent you from doing what you want.

What are your plans after LHHS?

I will attend UT Austin with the hopes of becoming a physical therapist and starting a graphic design company.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

Don’t take your time for granted, actually live in the moment and cherish each memory.

What are your plans after LHHS?

I plan to attend The University of Texas at Austin this coming fall.

What advice would you give to students still at LHHS?

First off, when you get to high school, you need to step up your game quickly; do your work and do it well, because from now on out, your grades are going to have serious consequences, and there are no do-overs. Freshman year grades count just as much as your senior year. Second, make sure you take time for your mental health; grades and activities and all matter, but not at the expense of your sanity. And lastly, get involved. Join clubs, find extra-curricular activities and get work experience because colleges and everyone are going to want to know what you did while in high school. Take high school as a time to learn who you are, what your limits are, what you like to do, and figure out how the world works. You’ll be expected to be a kid and yet an adult at the same time, which can be a tricky road, but you’ll get there eventually.

GEORGE CHANDLER

By GEORGE MASON

Give us liberty and give us death?

Individual freedom during a pandemic calls for personal sacrifices

For three months we’ve been under coronavirus restrictions that have tightened all the way to shelter in place and loosened to reopen nearly every enterprise of society. The tightening was based on medical science, proven practices to keep us safe from the COVID-19 contagion. The loosening was based on other factors.

Some people think loosening restrictions is justified because the threat of the virus is overblown. Some go as far as to call it a politically motivated hoax. Others compare the death rate of COVID-19 to heart disease, cancer or auto accidents and wonder why all the fuss. We live with risk all the time, they say.

More challenging is the economic havoc this disease is wreaking. Businesses that had to close may never recover. Retirement funds have been hit hard. Government stimulus payments have raised the floor, but the national debt has shot through the ceiling.

We heard that we needed to see at least two weeks of declining infection rates before we could safely reopen. But we tired of our social distancing and chafed under the wait.

The week that businesses began to throw open their doors, we had the highest rate of new infections. In the face of that rising rate, dissenters claimed we only saw increases because we had more testing. Even if that were so, that means far more people than we realized were walking around asymptomatic, posing a danger to others.

The real rub seems to be this: We interpret our personal freedom as an absolute right and see any elected official or restrictive law as an infringement upon our liberty.

Here’s where the duplicity comes in. We celebrate a white salon owner who breaks the law and think a black judge overreached by enforcing it. At the same

time, more than 200 inmates in county jail — mostly minorities convicted of nonviolent crimes — have contracted the virus in an environment where social distancing is impossible. The same people who flout one law in the name of liberty want to hold the line on the incarcerated in the name of law and order.

LUTHERAN

What is the role of religion in this confusing and concerning time? Faith leaders hear a familiar refrain that we should stay in our lane: Just provide spiritual encouragement for the anxious and lift our eyes toward heaven. Biblical faith, however, is rooted in social, not just personal, morality. We honor God when we care for our neighbor. That calls for personal sacrifice of our privilege if exercising our privilege endangers others. “All things are lawful for me,” the apostle says, “but not all things are beneficial.”

Our elected officials are neither tyrants to be overthrown nor puppets to be controlled. In a democratic republic, they are us. We need leaders to serve us by telling us hard things and calling us to care for the common good. Barring that, we are left to ourselves.

If it’s up to you, what will you do?
