JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — A teenager reported April 3 that scammers had attempted to swindle $800 from him after an alert popped up on his phone that it had a virus.

That day, around 6 p.m., the teenager had been playing a game on the iPhone, when a window appeared and opened on the Safari internet browser.

The window said that the phone had a virus and directed the teenager to call the AT&T service line or click the provided link to fix the issue.

The teenager called the number and spoke to a man who said his name was “Jorgon” and that he was an employee with AT&T.

Man receives threats through phone texts MILTON, Ga. — A man recently turned to police after he received texts from two unknown phone numbers threatening violence against his family if he did not pay them hundreds of dollars.

The man recently began receiving text messages through WhatsApp mes-

“Jorgan” told the teenager to buy two $100 gift card and read off the numbers to him to fix the phone. The teenager did so and was then transferred to another man who claimed to be an AT&T employee named “John Roy.” The teenager later told police that “Jorgan” and “John Roy” sounded like the same person.

“John Roy” told the teenager to buy an additional six $100 gift cards in order to fix the phone. He added that the money would be returned after the phone was fixed.

At that point, the teenager’s parents called the Apple support number listed on the company website and were informed that it was a scam.

senger. The profile picture showed a person holding a handgun.

The first message demanded the man pay $500, and a later text demanded $150 or the suspect would hire a hitman, and his family would be at risk. The unknown texter sent videos of people being shot and stabbed. A photo of the man’s son was also sent with the text.

The victim received multiple text messages and phone calls from two numbers demanding payment but did not respond or answer. Police were unable to identify the numbers.

While the victim was speaking with officers, he received a call from one of the numbers. Speaking Spanish, the

victim said he was with police and the caller hung up.

Police advised the victim to text the number and advise the recipient to cease all forms of communication, then block the numbers. He was also advised to contact police if he felt unsafe or threatened.

Northview students start nonprofit iCareMission

By ADAM DARBY adam@appenmediagroup.com JOHNS CREEK, Ga. – High school students are often so busy transitioning into adulthood and maintaining good grades, they seldom have time for anything else.

But Northview High School student Nithin Daniel has added CEO of his own company to his list of daily chores.

Initially starting the nonprofit at the age of 14, the student-run organization known as iCareMission solicits monetary contributions, sponsorships, and donations of eyeglasses in order to provide sight to the disadvantaged around the world.

“During my visit to India when I was in middle school, I visited my grandparents and I noticed something,” Daniel said. “Many of the villagers, including my grandpa, had failing vision. I found out that many people in India either

The revelation was shocking, Daniel said.

“I did more research and found that millions of people around the world are visually impaired and this statistic continues to rise,” he said. “A majority of these people are from low-income and middle-income countries where they are unable to get their eyes screened, either because they can’t afford it or these services are unavailable to them.

I thought if they couldn’t attain these services, I’d bring it to them.”

Daniel quickly expanded his work to other countries after contacting the Rotary Club of India and arranging an eye screening camp in which he could provide 400 eyeglasses to those in

need. Once he contacted the Mexican consulate, he was told that he could only provide services through the work of a nonprofit organization. It was then that he decided to continue as such and send glass to multiple areas around the globe.

“That’s when I thought of starting iCareMission with the help of my brother, Tarun Daniel,” he said.

Starting a non-profit at 14 proved to be more than he expected. After applications, tax forms and mountains of paperwork, iCareMission officially became a non-profit, and Daniel set out to conduct eye camps around the world and collect donations.

When iCareMission proved successful, Daniel continued to expand.

He put together a team with the recruitment of a secretary, Ruhan Ponadda along with his brother acting as CFO. He created an official website at www.iCareMission.com to spread word of the mission. Hundreds of major companies were then contacted for grants.

“I started an iCareMission chapter at my school, and instructed and trained members to help with fundraising and collecting eyeglasses,” Daniel said. “Then, I contacted schools locally and abroad to set up chapters around the world. I led and educated other students to be leaders themselves, coordinating programs and recruiting other students. I established jobs and job descriptions so iCareMission volunteers

Censoring constituents online Courts debate impact on First Amendment rights

State Sen. John Albers has been notified by the Georgia ACLU to unblock his constituets from his Facebook and Twitter pages. Albers claims they are his “personal” accounts.

If you’ve been blocked on Twitter, their profile would appear like the right photo. letter April 11 after being contacted by nine Georgia residents, most of whom reside in Albers’ Senate district, who have been blocked from posting on, or even viewing, Albers’ official government Facebook and Twitter pages.

Those pages are otherwise open for public comment to preselected “Facebook friends.”

Young stated that Albers previously had a separate Facebook page titled “Senator Albers” that was once used for digital town hall meetings.

However, that page was deleted, and it appears Albers uses his secondary Facebook page to conduct government business.

“Thus, whether you intended to or not, your Facebook default account page now functions practically as an official government page,” Young wrote in the letter to Albers. “And because your government Facebook and Twitter pages have been opened for some members of the public to post comments, it is considered a ‘limited public forum.’”

On a personal page, Young said the user has the right, even the First Amendment right probably, to design and make the page as he or she pleases.

“The problem we’re seeing recently is a lot of politicians and elected officials treating their government social media pages as they treat their personal pages,” Young said. “So they’re creating a separate government site to publicize the great work they’re doing.

Government transparency is great… but when constituents post comments that they don’t like, or say they need to be voted out of office, we’ve seen elected

officials delete those comments and block people who post comments the elected officials don’t like.”

Constituent says she was shut out One Albers constituent, Daryl O’Hare, objected to the senator’s “consistent practice of censorship and discrimination in communications related to his office, particularly in several avenues.”

O’Hare wrote to the Ethics Committee of the Georgia State Senate last year to complain of his activity.

“I believe it is in the state’s interest when a representative of the Georgia General Assembly fails to pass a full transparency test, especially in the area of equal access to his/her constituency, and particularly with regards to discrimination,” O’Hare said.

She listed the several ways Albers interacts with constituents and argued that all of these avenues should, given proper oversight by Albers, make constituents feel they are able to correspond with him in a way that is open and traceable should there ever be a need to recover communications.

On the surface, she said, this would appear to be the case with Albers.

“However, what happens when a constituent contacts the elected official through one of the avenues the legislator invited him/her to and the legislator proceeds to block the constituent without any known cause to the constituent?” O’Hare asked. “I am one of those constituents, and while I have contacted the senator numerous times to ask why, I have not been given a

gains popularity response or a report with any evidence to explain the action.”

Since last year, the ACLU of Georgia has sent letters to other elected officials to notify them of a similar situation -to three sheriffs, a police department, the secretary of state, a U.S. Senator and three members of Congress demanding that they stop censoring their critics who post on official government social media accounts.

But Albers said the ACLU letter is “mostly out of date and (the ACLU of Georgia) should update their research.”

“Unfortunately, social media has devolved in many ways and everyone should remember 13-year-olds have access,” Albers wrote in an emailed statement. “Sadly, and based on unfortunate negative behavior, I do not use social media for official communication. Social media is just what the name says, ‘social.’ My office is always available to schedule a call or meeting to work with people in a positive and professional manner.”

But Young has countered that criticism of elected officials is the cornerstone of American democracy.

“We can’t let that be eroded,” Young said. “Social media is a relatively new phenomenon, but the First Amendment principals of our country are timeless and have been around for centuries. A basic First Amendment principal set out by the United States Supreme Court is that when the government creates a public forum, it cannot then discriminate or censor people based on their viewpoint.”

Young cited one federal lawsuit in Maryland which was settled when Gov. Larry Hogan agreed to pay $65,000 to the plaintiffs and to rewrite his social media policies to conform to the Constitution.

In the case with President Trump, both sides agreed to a compromise whereby the president could “mute” users, rather than blocking them. In this way, the president wouldn’t have to see the comments, which can get malicious, but the voter can continue to read what Trump posts. Some public officials are unapologetic about blocking constituents on social media.

Other officials take different tack Forsyth County Commissioner Cindy Jones Mills uses her Facebook page to communicate, but said she has reduced her activity because of cyberbullying.

“I love talking to people and explaining things and getting their input and feedback but I don’t like the attacks or the twisting of your words,” Mills said.

“The other huge factor is the time it takes. When you post anything, you get asked 100 questions that usually don’t even relate to what you’ve posted about. I don’t mind answering questions and honestly, I like giving out correct information. But working 10 to 12 hour days really limits how much time you have to give to social media.”

While Mills said communication with all county residents is important, she still has to block some people.

“I have found that some folks on social media want to make any and everything about themselves and they will use a person, like me, to draw attention to themselves,” Mills said.

The commissioner said she resents being used to feed these people’s agendas which, she added, provide no benefit to the county but only serve to tear her down personally.

“I don’t want to give them too much priority in my life when I already have so many beneficial things to work on,” she said.

Milton Councilman Matt Kunz posts a short video after every City Council meeting or important event to give his thoughts.

“Communication is very important,” Kunz said. “Often I’ll get comments on those posts, and I’ll respond. Social media is a little like the Wild West. If you don’t come into it with a set of principles to guide you, you can find yourself in a lot of trouble.”

When he encounters someone he thinks is being deceitful, he said he just moves on.

“There are plenty of other people, good people, who are out there and that I can help, and it’s best to just focus on them,” he said.

Albers was given 30 days to respond to the ACLU of Georgia’s requests that he restore the posting privileges of individuals identified in the letter, or provide a legal justification for why they have been blocked.

“The others we’ve contacted have been pretty cooperative,” Young said.

“The ACLU of Georgia isn’t out to demonize anyone here. We understand in many ways this is a brave new world.

We’re all trying to figure this out together.

We’re always happy to work with any elected officials on a social media policy that complies with the Constitution.”

Local orchestras combine for April 21 performance

By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com JOHNS CREEK, Ga. — The Ludwig Symphony Orchestra and the Beethoven Chamber Orchestra are combining their talents April 21 for the free “A Spring Fling” gala concert. The concert will be held at 7 p.m. at the Johns Creek United Methodist Church, 11180 Medlock Bridge Road in Johns Creek.

The performance will feature a 72-piece orchestra, with 42 adult musicians and 30 top student musicians.

Songs include selections by Glinka, Paganini, Saint-Saens, Bach and Tschaikovsky.

Additionally, the night will spotlight the world premiere of award-winning composer Thomas Ludwig’s “Fifth Symphony.” Ludwig’s works have been performed and recorded with groups such as the London Symphony Orchestra and New York City Symphony. He is a recipient of the Kennedy CenterFriedhiem Award.

The new piece will contain four contrasting movements that aim to bring out the romantic qualities of the large orchestra.

“The first movement is mysterious and grand, the second, a wild, zany tribute to Ryan Peng – a talented teenage boy, the third is a luscious slow adagio, and the finale -- an energetic and powerful statement,” Ludwig said.

Several student musicians will perform solos, including Sophia Ho, with “Paganini Violin Concerto No. 1”; Harrison Zhu, with Saint-Saens’ “Cello Concerto”; and Alice Zhang, with Bach’s “Piano Concerto in D Minor.”

Ten-year-old maestro Brent Shi will conduct the Strauss “Tritsch-TratschPolka.”

Tenth-grade composer Andrew Wang, who won the American Composer’s Challenge Award, will likewise premiere his “Symphony No. 1.”

NORTHSIDE CHAPEL

LUDWIG SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA/SPECIAL

Thomas Ludwig conducts both the Ludwig Symphony and Beethoven Chamber orchestras.

“It’s really a gift to the public and allows any young person to attend with their families at no costs,” Ludwig said.

The concert will be at the Johns Creek United Methodist Church, home to the restored Trinity Church pipe organ. The instrument – with 8,000 pipes and 161 ranks – was just three blocks from Ground Zero and was significantly damaged after 9-11. But $1.2 million later, the pipe organ has been restored and is now displayed in its new Johns Creek home.

The Ludwig Symphony Orchestra, founded by Ludwig, has been performing for 20 years at Gwinnett Center and the Roswell Cultural Arts Center with numerous sellout shows. Its programs frequently feature surprises, such as mariachi bands or a live horse.

The Beethoven Chamber Orchestra, also conducted by Ludwig, was formed in 2002 under the umbrella of the Ludwig Symphony Orchestra. It is a training orchestra for children ages 7 through 17.

to unveil mural project at International Festival tributions made by local residents.

In March, residents were invited to submit their personal memories and/or stories pertaining to their experiences at the Chattahoochee River, inside the Medlock Bridge tunnel or a city park to serve as inspiration for the content of the painting.

The JCCVB took things a step further and asked local high school artists to volunteer in a group paint alongside Kureshi and Massey for two days earlier this month.

“Getting the community involved was an important piece JCCVB wanted to include in this project,” Marzen said.

The mural unveiling will come in the form of an official ribbon cutting ceremony at the east tunnel entrance and will be facilitated by the Johns Creek Chamber of Commerce. All attendees will have the opportunity to meet the artists involved, take photos and hear more about the inspiration behind the art.

From left are Ethan Ray Parker as the Big Bopper, Jeremy Aggers as Buddy Holly and Ricardo Aponte as Richie Valens.

GET rocks ‘Buddy Holly Story’ bio-play Roswell’s Georgia Ensemble Theatre is ending its 25th season not with a bang but a howl!

What better way to do it than with its most successful show ever, “Buddy: The Buddy Holly HATCHER HURD Story.” Yes, this is Guest Columnist that Buddy Holly that GET has done so successfully before (twice over the years). But it is a great choice simply because it is such an engaging and infectious performance by some really talented musicians/actors.

Those of us of a certain age remember Buddy Holly’s music well, and it has certainly passed the test of time.

With such hits as “Peggy Sue” and “That’ll Be the Day “to “Everyday” and “Rave On,” Holly was in at the seminal beginnings of rock ‘n’ roll.

It is hard to believe he assembled such a timeless body of work over such a short span of time from his first gate-crashing hit at age 19 until his untimely death at 22 in the plane crash that also killed The Big Bopper and Ritchie Valens.

It was just 18 months and he was gone.

But his music lives on and GET really cuts it loose. Jeremy Aggers makes his GET debut as brash Buddy Holly from Lubbock, Texas, who walks out on his first recording contract because he wouldn’t be pigeonholed as another country/western singer.

For Buddy it was rock ‘n’ roll all the way. Aggers is pitch-perfect depicting Buddy as the “aw-shucks, toe-in-thedirt kid” who is shy and deferential until and unless you try to get him to play anything but rock ‘n’ roll. And Aggers rocks with nuance and authority.

If you go What: The Buddy Holly Story Where: Georgia Ensemble Theatre, 950 Forrest St., Roswell When: April 12-29 Wed.-Fri. evenings; matinees Sat. & Sun. Cost: $33-$53; Call 770-6411260 or visit get.org Hats off to Ricardo Aponte who directs and choreographs the show and still returns for a third tour as Ritchie Valens in the frenetic show-stopping finale. The play is fast-paced, humorous and yet is unstinting in musical dexterity.

“Buddy Holly” was introduced opening night by Producing Artistic Director and GET co-founder Anita Allen-Farley.

It was a bittersweet chore for Anita because she was filling in for husband/ collaborator Bob Farley who died suddenly just a few short months ago.

This play, GET’s most memorable and financially successful offering, was to be Bob’s swan song at GET before a well-deserved retirement from a career in theater. He told me last fall there would be no better vehicle to out on than this homage to rock ‘n’ roll.

Bob’s life was theater. His first big gig was taking “Hair” on its first road tour. So rock and theater were equally in his blood almost from the beginning.

Sadly, Bob didn’t make it quite to the perfect ending.

But as I was leaving the theater after opening night, I glanced up at the balcony. And there, outlined by a spotlight, I thought I saw a tall rangy guy with sharp eyes and gray shaggy hair wearing an old worn leather vest.

He was looking down at the stage with a wry smile of satisfaction. He gave a little nod and then stepped back fading into the darkness.

Americans will remain optimistic that President Trump’s fresh economic policies will spur growth.

KENNETH SHIVER, chief economist for the Southern Company 16 | Johns Creek Herald | April 19, 2018

U.S. economy: ‘remarkably stable’ in recent years

By KATHLEEN STURGEON kathleen@appenmediagroup.com FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — The U.S. economy has been “remarkably stable” in recent years with the recovery remaining on track supported by robust job growth and solid consumer spending.

That’s according to Kenneth Shiver, chief economist for the Southern Company.

Shiver spoke April 10 at the 2018 Economic Outlook Breakfast at the Cumming Recreation and Parks Meeting Facility. Shiver gave insights into the economic status of Northeast Georgia, the Ga. 400 corridor and predictions for the future.

He said the U.S. stock prices reached new heights in 2017, surpassing historical milestones and continuing to grow strong.

“Consumer sentiment is upbeat, boosted by better household finances,”

KATHLEEN STURGEON/HERALD

Southern Company Chief Economist Kenneth Shiver speaks about trends in the economy in Forsyth County and across the United States.

Shiver said. “Americans will remain optimistic that President Trump’s fresh economic policies will spur growth.”

The Southeast continues to outpace the rest of the country in population growth, he said, boosted by net migration.

“In Forsyth County, your population increases about 4 percent a year,” he said. “That made this presentation a little different because usually I’m talking about how Georgia is growing 1 percent versus the nation growing at .8 percent.

You all have a lot of population growth.

But it’s less than it used to be.”

For most households across the country, the growth and housing demand are back to pre-recession levels, he said. The recent pace of new residential construction seems to be more in line with population growth.

Typically in Forsyth County, there are about three people per household.

Shiver and his team looked at building permits issued in the county.

In 2001, the county was adding about 2,500 households a year and building permits around the same amount.

Shortly after, there was a housing boom in 2006 and then the housing bust in 2008.

But around 2011, the county started seeing a sudden addition of households.

“There will be a demand for housing,” Shiver said. “Since 2012, things have been a lot more in balance.”

Right now, he said, permits are running slightly ahead of households, but households are growing at a rate higher than before the recession.

President Trump’s tax plan will boost economic growth in the near term, Shiver said.

“But positive effects would be muted by effect of higher interest rates caused by larger public debt,” he said.

“The plan provides demand stimulus with economy at full employment and translates in initial upward pressure on rates and a flattening of the yield curve.

However economic policy uncertainty in the U.S. remains fairly elevated.”

No perfect house? Make one The national news is finally starting to report what we in the real estate industry have known for about two years now: inventory levels are historically low, they are driving home prices GEOFF SMITH up, and because Assurance Financial, gsmith@lendtheway.com homebuilders are having trouble finding labor and inexpensive land, it appears the problem is only getting worse.

The Wall Street Journal just reported that fewer homes are being built today per household than almost at any time in U.S. history.

The National Association of Home Builders estimates that builders will start fewer than 900,000 new homes in 2018 across the U.S., which is less than the roughly 1.3 million homes needed to keep up with population growth.

This is helping to drive down inventory and drive up home values. In addition to the high labor costs and higher land prices, the association also says that regulatory costs are adding an average of nearly $85,000 to the cost of a new home – up more than 30 percent since 2011.

The story locally seems to be falling in line with the national trend. Mitchell Palm with the Atlanta-based Smart Real Estate Data says that the trend is pushing buyers toward homes that were built 10-15 years ago. Just before the downturn, homebuilders were building at a record pace.

Because of that, there is a huge number of those homes that Palm says are “considerably cheaper than new construction in the more established markets.”

“These 10-15 year old homes offer decent layouts, a lot of home for the price, and larger lots than what most

For the first time in a while, I’m seeing more interest in our renovation loan product. It allows a homebuyer to put as little as 5 percent down on a conventional loan and 3.5 percent on an FHA loan, and to have all of those upgrades built into the loan after closing on their new home. homebuilders are providing today,” he said. “Update some flooring, counters, appliances, and a fresh coat of paint, and you have a practically brand-new house.”

For the first time in a while, I’m seeing more interest in our renovation loan product. It allows a homebuyer to put as little as 5 percent down on a conventional loan and 3.5 percent on an FHA loan, and to have all of those upgrades built into the loan after closing on their new home.

The loans are pretty flexible and as long as the project adds value to the house, a homebuyer can do something as small as just replacing countertops in the kitchen, to adding a pool in the backyard, and even adding a bedroom to the house.

A recent client of mine was set on having brand new appliances and finishings and was set on a new home.

After two months into the process, she realized she was going to have to pay too much to live too far outside of the city.

So she switched her mindset and bought a house built in 2004 with a renovation loan. After closing, she replaced the entire kitchen, bought new appliances, replaced the flooring on the first floor and updated the tile in the master bath.

The loan also works for existing homes. I’ve had clients who bought

their homes 6-10 years ago and are ready to move.

But when they look out there, because home values have gone up so much, the more expensive houses they would normally move up to don’t look that much different than the homes they already live in. So instead of moving, they are staying home and remodeling. The renovation loan also allows a homeowner to access up to 95 percent, or 96.5 percent for FHA, of equity in their existing home to use toward construction costs.

It’s an odd time where the economy is going strong, but the housing market is tightening. Agents are looking for soft spots in the housing market where they can take their clients and not have to fight off other offers by doing things like offering higher than list-price. Using a renovation loan is a way to do that.

Put important tasks on your calendar Do you have a lot of daily and weekly activities you need to get done to run your small business?

What about your personal to-do list? Are there tasks that are DICK JONES slipping through Founder & President Jones Simply Sales the cracks because you don’t have time to do them? If you’re running a small business, you probably have more to do than time to do it.

If it’s important, put those tasks on your calendar.

When running a small business, time is money. Most small business owners would agree that they are more successful when they are managing their time more diligently.

They would also say that the only way to do this is to focus on the important things, and eliminate the distractions from things that aren’t important.

One way to focus on important things is the put your tasks on your calendar. Everyone uses a calendar for appointments, meetings or personal activities. Often times, however, tasks that need time to get done stay on a “to-do” list and never make it to their calendar. Subsequently, they don’t get completed on time.

Entering tasks as events on your calendar, and allocating the appropriate time to complete the task, will help you to get focused on what’s important. Whether it’s completing a proposal, doing analysis of your finances, or allocating time for follow-up calls with your customers, having these on your calendar will increase the likelihood that they get done. Put it on your calendar if it’s important, and leave it off if it’s not.

I have lots of mothers in my life that are deserving of recognition for all of the amazing things they do. But my favorites are my mother, my mother in law and my wife – who is the mother to my two beautiful children. Each of them loves their children unconditionally and are role models in how to keep life’s tribulations in perspective while always putting their children first. My dad, my father in law and I are better men because of the amazing moms that are in our lives! ~ Hans Appen My mother has endured a lot.

With me being her first born, she had to navigate herself through the daunting task of motherhood for the first time. Unfortunately for her, she had me. Throwing scissors off of an 11th story balcony and nearly hitting someone in the process, saying a choice word at age four in Sunday school or jumping into the deep end of a pool with no swimming experience just to get her attention. You name it, I did it. But she persevered and teaching young children for a living certainly helped. She always showed me nothing but unconditional love and supported me in all of my endeavors. But this was perfectly balanced with stern punishment. My mother raised me right. She eliminated my rousing rebelliousness and transformed it into relentless respect.

Without realizing it, we gradually pushed each other into becoming who we were meant to be. I gave her the challenge of her life and taught her how to become a loving, outstanding mother. In turn, she raised me to become a hardworking individual who loves God and loves people.

For that, I will forever admire my mother, our close relationship and everything she represents. I love my mommy and I’m proud of it! ~Adam Darby

To put it simply, my mom is my best friend.

Whenever I have news to share, whether good or bad, she’s the first one I call. We can spend hours together laughing about everything, but she also gives me the best advice. The older I get, the more I realize my mom is always right, so I trust her guidance wholeheartedly. When people say I remind them of her, either by my personality or looks, it’s the highest compliment I can receive. My mom is a beautiful person, not only on the outside, but on the inside. She’s compassionate, smart, hardworking, has a heart of gold and is the strongest person I know. I look up to her and strive to be just like her when I’m older. ~Kathleen Sturgeon

My mom is so much more than a mom. She is a true friend that will love and support you through anything. Some people may think it’s funny, but there is not a day that goes by that I don’t talk to my mom on the phone at least once a day. Unfortunately, we don’t live close and, we don’t actually see each other that often, so the phone calls keep her close at heart. My mom is the type of person who never meets a stranger and if that stranger would happen to be a child, then that child always seems to fall for my mom. It just so happens that my mom has cared for more children back home than we can keep track of, but there is one thing that does not change: her love and support for me. Mom you mean the world to so many people, but I can honestly say you mean the most to me. Love Forever! ~ Paul Flowers

Dorothy meets with her son-in-law, Ray, and granddaughter, Amelia, on the Appalachian Trail.

Of course my mom is the favorite mom in my life. She continues to be a source of encouragement and support to her four children and now to her 11 grandchildren. She is always ready for a fun adventure and available to help anyone who needs it. We will celebrate her 80th birthday this May. ~ Christina Appen Sometimes you love her, sometimes you don’t, but one thing is for certain. No one can nag like her. Of course I’m talking about dear, sweet mom.

Even though moms can be annoying at times, she is the one you can always count on. When someone wins an award, who is the first person they thank?

When a football player scores a touchdown, who is the first person they dedicate the game ball to?

When you fall and skin your knee, who is the first person you ask for help? So I would like to take this opportunity to say, “I love you mom, and thank you for always being there for me! I know I can always count on you.” ~Dean Larkin

My mom, Grace Mongeau. Fourth in a family of 5 girls. A wife. A mother of 6 (5 girls and 1 boy). A Grandmother to 12 and a Great Grandmother to 1.

The most amazing, selfless person I know. The matriarch of our family. Everyday should be Mother’s Day for you! Love you tons, #2 daughter, Suz ~Suzanne Pacey

From as far back as I can remember, my mom has been my biggest supporter. From my days in Little League baseball, Pop Warner Football, basketball, Scouts, high school band, college days and my early days as a parent myself, my mom has been there for me. I can remember mom taking me to practices and cheering for me on the sidelines.

She has coached me and mentored me in every aspect of my life, and I owe her gratitude for every accomplishment I’ve made in my life. I remember trying to always wink at my mom when I would spot her on the sidelines and to this day, I look and wait to wink at her to show her that I will always need her love and support. Thanks mom.

Love, ~ Steve Neese

NorthFulton.com | Johns Creek Herald | April 19, 2018 | 21

GET OUTSIDE, GEORGIA:

Listening to your boat Sometimes you have to listen to your boat.

You see, I’ve got this aging red Mohawk canoe that I’ve had for a long time now.

I call it “Ol’ Red,” That boat and I STEVE HUDSON have had some Get Outside Georgia, aa4bw@comcast.net grand adventures over the years, but lately (I admit it) Ol’ Red has been kind of neglected. That happens when life gets busy. You know how it goes: the schedule fills up with other things, and your buddy the boat gets lost in the shuffle.

But Ol’ Red has let me know that ignoring your boat is a bad thing to do. For a while now, every time I have walked within earshot, that venerable old watercraft has told me that it needs more time in the water. Yes, clear as day. Just as if it was talking to me, which of course it is.

“I am feeling neglected, especially after that long winter,” Ol’ Red said to me the just other day. “You left me propped up there by the house all winter long, and it was boring.”

“I understand that,” I replied. “But winter was cold. Too cold for getting on the water.”

“It’s never too cold to get on the water,” the boat replied. “You yourself said that once. But the forecast is for warmer times ahead. Just last weekend it was in the 70s. Your excuses are gone. Now get out there and find us some water.”

Wait – do you find this conversation unusual? You seem surprised. Do you mean to tell me that you don’t talk to your canoe? Well, you should. Sometimes canoes have important things to say, and you should listen.

“So get with it,” Ol’ Red added.

“You’re pretty good at the ‘research’ thing, aren’t you? So get out there and research us up a new place to paddle.”

That’s how I came across Etowah River Park.

Etowah River Park, tucked away at the far end of Brown Industrial Parkway in Canton, is an undiscovered little gem of a site with a lot to offer to folks who enjoy the outdoors. It’s easy to find too. Just follow Georgia 20 west until it crosses I-575. Just west of I-575, turn right on Brown Industrial Parkway. Follow it to the end, and

STEVE HUDSON/HERALD

Etowah River Park, tucked away at the far end of Brown Industrial Parkway in Canton,is a good put-in for a short, quick float down to Boling Park. you’ll come to Etowah River Park.

What awaits you there? There’s lots of green space – close to 60 acres of it – with plenty of room for you and the family (and the dog, too, if on a leash).

You’ll find a covered pavilion. You’ll find picnic tables and playgrounds.

You’ll find a half-mile-long paved loop trail that goes around it all.

You’ll also find a spur trail leading off the far end of the loop, a spur which soon turns to a gently inclined boardwalk that curves gracefully toward a pedestrian bridge over the Etowah River. I love footbridges over rivers. Standing on them over the flowing water below, I always look upstream first (wondering what might be coming my way) and then downstream (wondering what might be yet to come). There’s a metaphor there that’s probably worth further consideration someday.

Just upstream of this particular bridge is an especially neat feature of Etowah River Park – a small canoe launch. The canoe launch is on river left (that is, on the left side of the river if you’re facing downstream) and is accessible from a graveled parking area near an enormous utility pole. This is not a fancy launch by any measure – in fact, it’s just a paved walkway that leads down to some large paved steps and then the water. There’s no ramp, as such, so be careful if you put your boat into the water here. But it’s definite and official river access. The only drawback is that it may be covered in mud that’s been left behind by previous high water. That’s an inevitable consequence of being on a river such as this one, and you may just have to deal with it.

Mud notwithstanding, the canoe launch is a convenient starting or ending point for Etowah floats. Perhaps the easiest way thing to do is simply to put in at Etowah River Park, paddle

around for a while, and then return to the launch to take out when you’re done.

But if you’re up for a more ambitious adventure, you can start a little more than a dozen miles upriver at the East Cherokee Drive bridge. Put in there and then float down to Etowah River Park. You’ll be experiencing part of the Etowah Water Trail, and you can find detailed river maps at etowahwatertrail.org.

How do you spot the takeout at the end of this float? Simply look for it on river left (that is, on the left side of the river as you’re floating downstream), just before you come to the pedestrian bridge. If you pass under that bridge, then you’ve gone too far.

Etowah River Park is also a good put-in for a short, quick float down to Boling Park, another public space about three miles downriver. The takeout points are on river right. But note that the takeouts at Boling Park what a friend of mine generously calls “undeveloped.” That means that you must climb steep and potentially muddy trails up the riverbank to get from the water to the road. They’re located just beyond the ballfields, and you want to be sure you know where they are lest you miss ‘em. Sometimes they’re marked by bright flagging tape tied to streamside branches. Before planning a take-out at Boling Park, check these out first to be sure you know where they are and also to be sure you’re up to the challenge of getting you and your boat out of the river and back to your car.

Having learned all of this, I reported back to Ol’ Red. My old friend seemed pleased.

So now I’m looking at the calendar and at river levels – and at my fly rod, which I’ll surely take with me. Ol’ Red wouldn’t have it any other way.

I’ll let you know how it goes.

How to identify a sick tree It’s easy to miss when a tree is growing sick. Most tree health problems grow slowly, with little visible difference from one day to the next, until leaves change colors or the canopy begins to thin. The longer it takes to spot problems, the more likely the tree’s illness will become serious enough that it needs to be removed. However, if you can catch the signs early and call for an arborist, it may be possible to

TREE SERVICE

treat the sickness or damage and save the tree. Keep an eye out for these common signs of trouble: • Look for wilting or oddly-colored leaves, either along one or two limbs or all over the tree.

• Check for cracks appearing in primary limbs or even in the trunk of the tree.

• Examine dead branches, which may simply need pruning, but which can also indicate that a tree is in poor health.

• Watch for decaying or hollow spots, especially along the trunk and around the joints of the limbs.

• Look for insect damage, such as chewed leaves, holes made by burrowing bugs, silk webs and nests, and dripping sap or honeydew.

Multiple region soccer races go down to the wire

By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com NORTH FULTON, FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — This week marks the end of the soccer regular season, and region championship and playoff races are still to be decided for many North Fulton and Forsyth County teams. Schools play their regular season finales this week ahead of the state tournament which begins April 24-27.

Region 4-AAAAAAA Roswell’s boys and girls teams have each secured postseason berths, but their playoff seed, and possible homefield advantage, will not be determined until Friday.

For the boys team, the Hornets could secure their second region championship in four years. Roswell (9-4-1, 4-0) faces Walton to complete its regular season schedule in a winner-take-all matchup for the region championship. Walton (13-1-1, 3-0) sits second in the region standings and faces Lassiter ahead of their matchup with Roswell.

The Hornets reached the state semifinals as a No. 3 seed last year.

Like last season, the girls region 4-7A race is a battle of the top three teams, not only in the region but in all of Class 7A. Roswell, Lassiter and Walton all have a shot to earn the region championship this week, but the Hornets will need help from tiebreakers to take the title.

Entering the final week of play, Lassiter leads the standings at 4-0 in region play. That includes a 2-1 win over Roswell on March 8. Roswell is 3-1, while Walton is 3-0 with two games remaining.

If Walton beats Lassiter this week and Roswell beats Lassiter Friday, the three teams will all be tied at 4-1 with each team having one win and one loss against the other opponents. Tiebreakers will then be instituted.

If Walton loses to Lassiter and Roswell, the Hornets will claim the No. 2 seed. If Roswell loses on Friday, they will be relegated to the No. 3 seed and

but will go on the road after placing third in region.

Last year’s BT squad reached the state semifinals after securing the region championship.

Area 5-A

Region 7-AAAAAA The boys and girls 7-6A champions will be decided this week with the boys game featuring a winner-take-all contest for the region title.

Chattahoochee (10-2-2, 7-0) and Cambridge (14-1-0, 6-1) squared off Tuesday night for the boys region championship. Results were not available at press time.

The Cougars, the 2017 Class 6A state champions, were seeking their fourth straight region title and fourth straight undefeated region record.

Cambridge was seeking its first region championship.

Alpharetta (13-2-0, 6-2) has completed its region schedule and will earn the No. 3 seed entering the state playoffs.

Johns Creek, currently tied for fourth in the region standings, will fight for a playoff berth this week with two games against Centennial and Pope.

Johns Creek and Pope are tied at 3-3 in region play ahead of Dunwoody and 3-4.

The Gladiators control their own destiny and can secure a playoff berth with wins in both games. With a loss, the No. 4 seed from the region could come down to tiebreakers. Dunwoody also plays Pope this week.

In girls play, Johns Creek also controls its own destiny but will be fighting for a second straight region championship. Entering this week, Johns Creek held a one-game lead over Pope to lead the standings.

The Gladiators faced Centennial Tuesday and close out their regular season against Pope Thursday. If Johns Creek wins both games they will be region champs. If Johns Creek and Pope win their first game of the week,

Emma Sorenson and the Alpharetta girls team have secured their second-straight playoff berth.

Thursday’s matchup will decide the region title.

Alpharetta (8-6-2, 5-3) earned its second straight postseason berth and will enter the state tournament as the No. 4 seed from the region.

Region 7-AAAA While the race heats up in other regions, Blessed Trinity’s soccer squads already know they are in the state tournament.

The girls team secured the region championship back in March, completing an undefeated (4-0) run against 7-4A opponents. The Titans are 7-1 since moving into the region in 2017. BT will host the No. 4 seed from Region 8 April 26.

The boys team also earned a playoff berth

The Area 5 race for the region championship will come down to the wire this week with multiple local teams in the hunt for a playoff berth.

In boys play entering this week, Pinecrest Academy (10-4-1, 6-1) sat second in the standings behind Whitefield Academy (11-4-0, 6-0). Fellowship Christian (7-4, 5-1) was close behind in third.

Pinecrest and Whitefield will meet Thursday in a game that could decide the area championship.

Whitefield plays two area opponents this week. Fellowship closes out its regular season against Mount Paran (3-11, 2-5).

In girls play, The Walker School has secured the region title, but Mount Pisgah, Fellowship Christian, Pinecrest Academy and Mount Paran are all in the running for the final three playoff spots.

Mount Pisgah (10-3-1, 5-1) faces St. Francis to close out area play this week, while Fellowship (5-7, 3-3) takes on Walker and Mount Paran. Pinecrest, seeking its fourth straight playoff appearance, hosts Whitefield this ThursWe offer a full day. range of services:

of the third got the scoring started for the Raiders. Kirby, Alpharetta’s next batter, extended the lead to 3-0 with a home run to left field off Centennial starter Peyton Sperier. Sperier was given the loss, allowing three earned

runs off four hits with five strikeouts in four innings.

Will Haberstock relieved Sperier in the fifth but got off to an inauspicious start. Lewis and Montiel hit back-toback home runs to start in the inning, putting the Knights up 5-0. Kirby tripled, but the Knights stopped the bleeding with a line out, strikeout and a runner out on the base paths.

Centennial’s offensive output was limited to five hits during the contest.

Charlie Goldstein earned the win, allowing just three hits with four strikeouts in five innings. He was relieved

by Ryan Tobin and Drew Sutton, each allowing a single hit in a full inning.

Friday’s win kept the Raiders in a playoff position entering the final push, but the team is aware that sitting second in the standings is no assurance of postseason play. The Raiders entered

the final night of the 2017 regular season second in the region standings, but a loss in the season finale and implementation of tiebreaking procedures relegated Alpharetta to fifth and ended its season.

The Raiders finish regular season play this week against Johns Creek, Chattahoochee and North Atlanta.

Johns Creek and Hooch are both battling for the final playoff spot from the region. North Atlanta currently sits last in the standings.

While the Raiders look to earn a postseason berth, the Knights will be playing for pride.

The loss put Centennial 2.5 games behind Dunwoody, the fourth-place team in the standings, and the Knights have just two games remaining. Centennial faces region champions Pope and hosts Northview Wednesday to close out its first season under head coach Matt McCarthy.

Committee adopts rule changes for multiple high school sports

By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com MACON, Ga. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Georgia High School Association Executive Committee approved multiple rule changes for sports at its April 9 meeting. Significant alterations were made by each sportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s committee and the Board of Trustees that will take effect in the 2018-19 season.

For North Fulton and Forsyth Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s five Class-A private schools, perhaps the most dramatic alteration was the separation of state championships for public and private Class-A in soccer and volleyball.

In other sports, such as football or basketball, Class-A teams are separated, and compete for the class private or public state championships.

Currently, the top 24 private and public Class-A volleyball and soccer programs are combined to compete for the Class-A championship. However, the committee voted unanimously to approve the separation of state championship play in volleyball and soccer beginning in the 2018-19 school year.

The original measure included wrestling but was amended to delete the sport from consideration in the committeeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vote.

The power rankings, which determine the top 24 teams that earn berths in the state playoffs in Class-A private, were also reformed. Games played against out-of-state opponents will now count in the

power rankings in baseball, basketball and softball the 2018-19 season. Football teams already gained points from playing out-of-state teams.

Soccerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overtime rules were drastically changed for all classifications. The two alterations will impact overtime games beginning next season.

The soccer committee voted unanimously to alter the format to include a single, 15-minute overtime period, replacing the current arrangement of teams playing two, five-minute overtime â&#x20AC;&#x153;halves.â&#x20AC;?

If a game progresses to penalty kicks, teams will now shoot in an A-B-B-A format. Currently, a single coin toss decides which team will shoot first in each round of the shootout.

In football, the board approved measures to use seven on-field officials for all state playoff games.

It also will allow fall scrimmage games to involve three different schools, with each team playing one half against the other programs. A motion to require video review to verify whether a game ejection was warranted was denied.

The basketball committee approved a proposal to move the first allowable practice date a week earlier to Oct. 22. A bid to move the tennis start date two weeks later in the year was denied.

A measure to require a cheerleading team to compete in three sanctioned events during the regular season in order to be eligible for region, section, or state competition passed unanimously and was approved by the Executive Committee.

The National Charity League, Inc., Milton Chapter partnered with the American Heart Association to promote healthy heart awareness.

National Charity League goes red for women MILTON, Ga. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; On March 18, over 70 mothers and daughters from the National Charity League, Inc., Milton Chapter gathered at Wills Park for a 1.6 mile walk as part of their â&#x20AC;&#x153;Love Your Heartâ&#x20AC;? campaign to promote healthy heart awareness.  The women also collected a donation of over 250 childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s toothbrushes and 160 tubes of toothpaste for one of their partnered philanthropies, Foster Care Support Foundation.

Milton ends War Eagles’ unbeaten streak Eagles outlast South Forsyth in final game of series

By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com CUMMING, Ga. — Two streaks ended last Thursday with Milton topping South Forsyth 7-6 in Region 5-AAAAAAA baseball play. South suffered its first region loss, and Milton ended its four-game losing streak against region opponents.

Milton’s win was crucial for its playoff hopes because it put them one game ahead of Lambert for the final playoff spot. The Eagles built on that gap over the weekend with a 12-2 win over Lambert.

Though South dropped Thursday’s game, the War Eagles secured the Region 5-AAAAAAA championship on Friday with a 4-3 win over Forsyth Central.

There was plenty of offense in Thursday’s contest with Milton and South combining for 13 runs on 19 hits. That offensive output got off to a quick start.

Milton’s Ben Harris hit a leadoff home run in the top of the first, and Danny Grillo made it back-to-back home runs just two pitches later.

Milton’s lead was short-lived with South plating three runs in the bottom of the frame off four hits, including doubles from Bradley Prince and Grant Gerberding.

In the second inning, Milton’s Brandon Butterwick tied the game with a sacrifice bunt. Milton then reclaimed the lead with Grillo’s second RBI and a sacrifice fly from Graham Pauley.

South’s Ryan Nolan relieved starter Keller Dannenmiller in the third and quickly limited Milton’s offensive output. Nolan allowed two runs off two hits in five innings and retired nine straight to end the contest.

A single and an error put two runners on for Milton in the third. Both runners scored on sacrifice flies to extend the lead to 7-3.

South loaded the bases with one out in the fourth with two singles and a walk, setting up a two-run double from Ben Ferrer. Milton’s starter, Mason Kenney, then forced two ground outs.

He was relieved by Carson Davenport in the fifth.

With Nolan forcing six straight outs for South, the War Eagles cut the gap to 7-6 in the bottom of the sixth on a Matty Bapst triple.

However, the War Eagles were unable to break through in the seventh.

Landon Sims reached second on a single and sacrifice bunt, but two strikeouts from Davenport ended South’s hopes of a comeback.

Kenney earned the win for the Eagles, allowing four earned runs off nine hits with four strikeouts.

Both teams close out their regular seasons this week. Region champions South plays Lambert twice before its finale against North Forsyth this Friday.

The Eagles play North twice next week and end their regular season April 20 at home against West Forsyth. The Eagles won their three-game series against Lambert earlier this year enabling Milton to secure a playoff berth with at least one win.

Big South a big success Beer festival, competition attracts hundreds

By JOE PARKER joe@appenmediagroup.com

Award winning beers

MILTON, Ga. — Over 500 thirsty festivalgoers packed the plaza at Milton City Hall for the inaugural Big South Beer Competition and Festival on April 14. More than 30 brewers were on hand to pour samples of dozens of beers with food vendors serving up tasty snacks and three live bands rocking the plaza.

The event was more than just a good time with proceeds benefitting Children’s Charities. The Milton-based organization is currently raising funds for an all-inclusive park to be constructed in the city.

In addition to the tastings, winners of a professionally judged brewing competition were announced. Alpharetta’s Jekyll Brewing was named Grand Champion.

Breweries submitted beers to be blind-tasted and evaluated by 21 Beer Judge Certification Program judges.

Among those judges were four grand master judges, the highest rating in the BJCP organization.

• Style: brewery (beer) • Belgium Ale: Reformation Brewing (Cadence) • Lager: Southern Barrel Brewing Company (Southern Helles) • Double IPA: Left Nut Brewing Company (Mighty Banyan) • IPA: Classic City Brewing (Cotton Head IPA) • American, amber and pale ale: Full Spectrum Brewing (Das Kupfer Altbier) • Dark ale: Wicked Weed Brewing (BA Milk & Cookies) • Sour ale: Jekyll Brewing (Tart Vise) • Fruit and specialty: Goose Island (Sofie) • Cider: Bold Rock Hard Cider (Carolina Apple) Chuck Squires, who coordinated the event along with Children’s Charities, said the festival was a success in the first year.

“We have already heard from several

Over 500 people attended the festival which included live music and food vendors. breweries that weren’t involved this year that have shown interest in being involved next year,” Squires said. “They want to prepare beers to submit for tasting. They will be making some special beers that can gain them a medal and the notoriety that goes along with winning a BJCP contest. It’s a legiti-

mate award to win.”

It will also be important to grow the event for the benefit to Children’s Charities and the local community, Squires said.

“We really want to build this event because we do feel it is very important for our area and region,” he said.

By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com ROSWELL, Ga. — Spring has sprung, and with it, Roswell’s much anticipated monthly street festival Alive in Roswell.

Rite of spring Farmers market draws fans to downtown Alpharetta

By PATRICK FOX pat@appenmediagroup.com NORTH FULTON, Ga. — Old Canton Street was packed Saturday morning as the 13th annual Alpharetta Farmers Market began its six-month stay in downtown.

Thousands of visitors wended their way through the gallery of more than 50 vendor booths selling sweets, soaps, spices, sausages and a variety of crafts and produce.

Some of the vendors were so swamped with customers, they ran out of wares well before noon.

“We’ve got a half gallon of milk left and some sweet cheeses. Everything else is just gone,” said Megan Payne, who was operating the booth for Capra Gia Cheese Company out of Carrollton.

When it opened at 8:30 in the morning, the booth was stocked with six varieties of goat cheese, raw goat’s milk

for pets and eggs. Some of the items sold out in the first hour, Payne said.

“We’ll be back next week with more,” she promised customers.

The same story rang true just down the street at El Cuate Foods where marketing director Melissa LeEllen served handmade tamales.

“It’s been a crazy day,” she said as the supply of food dwindled to a single jar of salsa as the morning moved toward noon. “I didn’t know it was going to be so busy. It’s good to be sold out.”

She offered what she could to passers-by.

“We’ll have a ton more next week,” she said.

The farmers market, sponsored by the Alpharetta Business Association, runs from 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. each Saturday through October.

Association President John Ray said the list this year features some 70 vendors from throughout the area. Vendors this year can tout their wares on the event’s revamped website, alpharettafarmersmarket.com, which also provides visitors a chance to browse the different menus, produce and crafts that will be available each week.

PATRICK FOX/HERALD

A colorful display of some of the region’s finest fruits and vegetables from J and J Produce greets visitors at the entrance to the Alpharetta Farmers Market Saturday in downtown Alpharetta.

One of the new vendors this year was Fussyruff out of Roswell.

Alexis Tyson was manning the booth Saturday morning, where she took visitors through a display of handmade scented candles – 15 varieties, from coconut and thyme to Spanish moss walnut.

The booth carried some old-time adornments to give it an antique-style charm.

“We like to go with a vintage look, kind of a Shakespearian theme,” Tyson

said. “There’s been a good crowd here since the beginning.”

Visitors, some with pets on leashes, others with babies in strollers, meandered along the river of pedestrians, stopping, glancing and often buying.

Alpharetta resident Conley Ingram was enjoying the scene and the variety of offerings at Saturday’s market. He remarked on the large turnout.

“It’s the warm weather,” he said. “I think people are tired of the cold-hot, cold-hot, then rain.”

The man had gone swimming at 3:30 p.m. the L.A. Fitness on Windward Parkway, and an hour later, he returned to the locker rooms to take a shower. His belonging had been locked in his locker, but for a few minutes while he showered, the man left the locker door unlocked.

At 4:35 p.m., the man left the gym to get a haircut. It wasn’t until he attempted to pay for the haircut that the man realized two of his credit cards were missing.

The man called the credit card companies, which both said the cards had been used or attempted to be used. One of the transactions was for over $1,000.

Gym management told police that

MILTON, Ga. — Five Milton High School students were charged after writing anti-Semitic graffiti on a Milton woman’s driveway during the “junior/ senior wars.” Two 17-year old students were charged as adults under the city’s vandalism ordinance. Three minors were processed through the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice for criminal trespass according to a statement from the city.

Police responded to the home on April 9 regarding the graffiti, which was written in shaving cream on the driveway.

According to the police report, the victim was “crying and obviously very upset.” Officers took photos of the

property before the owner washed away the shaving cream.

Last Friday, the students were identified by Milton police and charged. The two students charged as adults were issued citations on April 13 and have court dates pending according to a city statement.

“We’re pleased that our detectives were able to conclude this investigation so quickly to allow some closure,” said Rich Austin, police chief, in the statement.

“Milton is a tight-knit community and this type of behavior simply cannot be tolerated. Hopefully this will be a learning experience for the students involved.”

Police spokesman Captain Charles Barstow said Milton police worked to ensure that the students understand the severity of their actions.

“All expressed remorse for their behavior to our detectives, and it’s also my understanding that some have even communicated directly with the … family,” Barstow said.

The duo were using the basketball court between 5-7 p.m., and both had hidden their iPhone 8s with their belongings, which they placed courtside.

After the game, they noticed that their phones were missing. They, along with two other witnesses, recalled seeing a suspicious man hanging around the court not doing anything.

The man was described as black, 25-35 years old and was wearing a white shirt, black sweatpants with a white stripe, black tennis shoes and close cropped hair.

Front desk staff told police that the man was not a member. They said they believe that the suspect walked in while staff was distracted and that he is possibly the same suspect who stole a phone earlier that month.
