Azle woman set on fire, boyfriend charged
PC woman arrested for shooting caged dog
Victim is in critical condition BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN An Azle woman is being treated in a Dallas hospital for life-threatening burns covering 30 percent of her body after her boyfriend allegedly set her on fire Sunday, June 1. The woman, identified as Leticia Gomez, 37, of Azle, is believed to be in critical condition with first and second degree burns on her legs, back, abdomen, forearms, buttocks and genital area, according to a press release issued by the Parker County Sheriff’s Office. The boyfriend, Mark Morgan Upchurch, was arrested the same evening and remained in the Parker County Jail June 2 in lieu of $100,000 bond. Sheriff Larry Fowler said the incident occurred just before 7 p.m., when medical staff reported a 37-year-old female was brought into
Texas Health Harris Methodist Hospital Azle with severe burns. Hospital staff also reported that a man, believed to be a neighbor of the victim, brought her into the emergency room, stating she told him Mark Morgan Upchurch had set her on fire and that the incident was not an accident. The neighbor told deputies he first saw the victim running down the driveway, screaming, “Mark set me on fire!” The neighbor said he observed her skin peeling off and immediately drove her to the hospital for medical treatment. Deputies spoke with the neighbor, who told them of the incident, while hospital staff tended to the victim who suffered possible life-threatening burn injuries. She was transferred PLEASE SEE AZLE, PAGE 2A.

BY NATALIE GENTRY Parker County Sheriff’s investigators arrested a local woman June 1 in connection to an animal cruelty case. Tammy Green Douglas, 44, of Parker County was arrested early Sunday morning, June 1, after a tip led investigators to her residence. A gruesome discovery The search for a suspect began early
Wednesday, May 28, when a Springtown ISD bus driver called the Sheriff’s Communications Center after discovering a caged dog and puppies while on the morning route. The driver reported a dog inside a kennel with an apparent gunshot wound to the head. The cage had been left partially in the roadway in the 100 block of Raley Road just off of Veal Station Road in Springtown. There were 11 elementary school children on the bus at the time, but it is believed they did not witness the scene. Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler said the worst part of the call came when animal control officers arrived and discovered the deceased dog had 10 puppies inside the kennel with their mother. “These puppies were left defenseless and still nursing on their deceased mother,” Fowler said.
Sheriff’s Animal Control Supervisor Karen Kessler said the mother dog was a 4-year-old shepherd mix, weighing about 35 pounds. Kessler added the dogs were deliberately placed inside the wire dog kennel, with an egg crate glued to cardboard which was placed in the bottom of the kennel. “There are seven female and three male puppies, approximately 7-9 days old,” Kessler said. “One of the puppies barely has its eyes open. “They were covered in their mother’s blood from where she had been shot in the top of the head, with the exit wound located on the left side of her neck leaving a large puddle of blood,” She continued. “The mother was obviously malnourished and should have weighed at least 50 pounds. We also found an empty metal pan inside the crate.” Fowler said after the story was aired PLEASE SEE TEXT, PAGE 3A.

This public forum is slated for 7-8 p.m. on Wednesday, June 18, in the Azle High School auditorium, 1200 Boyd Road. “What’s Behind the North Texas Quakes? A KERA/StateImpact Texas Discussion” will be moderated by KERA Senior Reporter Doualy

‘One bite at a time’
City pays off another chunk of golf course debt
BY CARLA NOAH STUTSMAN During the regular meeting of the Azle city council held Tuesday, May 20, Mayor Alan Brundrett asked a pointed question and then answered it himself. “How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.” He was referring to the city’s debt (the elephant) for Cross Timbers Golf Course and its successful efforts to reduce both the debt and the time it takes to pay off that debt. Moments later, the council voted unanimously to call $170,000 of the outstanding bonds from the Series 2010 General Obligation Refunding Bonds. That move not only reduces the principal debt but saves taxpayers in Azle about $18,600 in interest.
The city’s budget for fiscal year 2013-2014 includes $100,000 in tax dollars to go toward paying down golf course debt; the remaining $70,000 comes from gas well royalties. When the golf course was financed in 1996 at interest rates ranging from 4.3 to 6.0 percent, the $6,405,000 price tag was scheduled to be paid off in 2025. But in 2007, the council resolved that royalties from gas wells drilled on Cross Timbers Golf Course would only be used to pay down that debt. Since April 2009, the city council has called $2,965,000 of that debt and brought the payoff date from 2025 to 2017. Additionally, one more opportunity is expected to materialize during 2015 to pay off a portion of the remaining debt, bringing the payoff date to 2016, according to City Manager Craig Lemin. “These early payments have saved the taxpayers of Azle almost $1.8 million in interest payments and have shortened the life of the debt by eight years,” Lemin said.

This Week in Azle History
North Texas has the largest onshore natural gas field in the state, and some experts believe it may be the largest in the country. Some reports say scientists have linked the disposal of drilling wastewater used in fracking to earthquakes. Seismologists are studying the quakes in Parker and Tarrant Counties to monitor where the earthquakes occur, when and why. The event is open to the general public and admission is free.

Azle Band Practice
After 8 years with Azle, McCambridge heads to Lake Worth ISD By Carla noah stutsMan In a fairy tale world, a frog gets kissed and turns into a prince. But in Azle, a Hornet has inexplicably been turned into a frog – a Lake Worth Bullfrog, that is. Skip McCambridge, Director of Operations for the Azle Independent School District (AISD), announced about a week before school was out for summer his plans to resign that position for a similar one with the Lake Worth ISD. McCambridge, who came here from DeSoto eight years ago, announced last week he’s taking a top spot in the LWISD – Executive Director of Administrative Services. While that position includes operations, like his job with Azle ISD, it also involves human resources and technology – two areas McCambridge calls both challenging and exciting. He is experiencing some var-

ied emotions as he makes the transition, McCambridge said. “After eight years, I’ve grown to love this (Azle) community, the kids, and the schools,” he said. “But this is a great opportunity for me and I’m looking forward to work-
ing with those folks. They have a great superintendent and a great board, and I’m excited to be able to contribute there,” McCambridge said. He played a major role in the planning and implementation of the AISD’s Showcase, which has been a huge success in Azle and has grown to become the largest academic fair in Tarrant County.

Less than 48 hours after the HSUS announced the reward for information that would help law enforcement with this case, Parker County Sheriff’s Office received a call that led them directly to Douglas. Parker County Sheriff Larry Fowler said, “We’re so appreciative for the reward The Humane Society of the United States offered in this case – it was integral in encouraging residents to come forward with information that ultimately solved this case. “We have an excellent track record in working with the HSUS and we are thankful for the ongoing collaboration to protect animals and people in Parker County,” he continued. Katie Jarl, Texas state director for The HSUS said, “We are pleased that this reward money helped Sheriff Fowler with the investigation into this particularly heinous allegation of animal cruelty. It’s an honor to work with law enforcement leaders that make the welfare of animals a priority in their community.” This is the second time the HSUS assisted the Parker County Sheriff’s Office with animal related incidents. In 2010, the groups helped seize 118 birds from a largescale cockfighting ring and a subsequent investigation resulted in the arrest of nearly 200 people.
A happy ending...for some The 10 puppies were released to the care of Angels & Outlaws 2nd Chance Bully Ranch in Hico. The organization’s director, Jennifer Aikman, said they have two lactating females who adopted the abandoned puppies. “Seven of the puppies have been nursing from Tessie, one of the surrogate mothers.” Aikman said. “And Lena, an 8-year-old surrogate who lost two of her 3-week-old puppies, has been nursing the additional four.” Both pit bull mothers have taken to the puppies and have been very attentive. The runt of the litter, named Jilly by Lena’s foster family, died Sunday June 1 of heavy chest congestion. “The puppies were covered in blood and it is still cool in the mornings,” Aikman said “Without the warmth from their mother these newborn puppies were exposed to the cool damp air. “I feel like the woman that shot their mom was totally responsible for Jilly’s death,” she continued. “That was very cold blooded, almost execution style to me, and I have a hard time believing that she has a caring bone in her body for any life.” Aikman is still concerned about two of the other puppies as they fight the congestion, but the rest of the litter is thriving with their new mothers and will be ready for adoption once they are weened.

Azle banker dons many hats Library summer fun: Milhollon also a football official and naval reserve officer by mark k. campbell David Milhollon stays busy. The branch manager/vice-president at Herring Bank, Milhollon apologized as the speaker at the weekly meeting of the Azle Rotary Club May 29 where he is also a member. He’s been kind of harried, too busy to attend meetings recently. Milhollon is seeking a Master’s degree from TCU and that recently sent him off to South America where he and wife Alice visited three countries as part of a scholastic project. Naturally, banking has kept him hopping. And so does a couple of other efforts Milhollon is involved in. He is a high school football official. And, as a member of the naval reserve the past 15 years, Milhollon has served tours in Afghanistan and Iraq.
A graduate of Olney High School and Midwestern University, it’s his pursuit of a Master’s degree that included a study abroad facet. That sent the Milhollon and his wife – along with a couple dozen others – to South America to examine foreign economies. The first to for the group was Buenos Aires in Argentina. That economy is in serious disarray, Milhollon said. Amid the financial instability is a 35 percent inflation rate. The country prefers to accept American dollars rather than the local peso, he said. The city of 10 million was only one of three huge municipalities the TCU group visited. The next stop was Santiago, Chile where one booming economic activity is “micro-loans” – loans of $100 to $200 dollars that
are “high risk, high reward,” Milhollon said. While Santiago’s population was bustling 10 million, the final stop in Lima, Peru was even more crowded at 12 million people. In Lima, the economy was “thriving,” Milhollon said. Still, there is unrest there since most of the Peru’s resources end up back in Lima where the majority of the wealthy people reside. The resultant rural poverty has inflamed country folk to demonstrate, he said. Still, he said of the “beautiful” city: “That was the best stop. I could live in Lima – but not my wife,” he told fellow Rotarians. Milhollon said he hopes to have his Master’s degree by December – and that he’ll pass on officiating football for the fall season to make sure that happens.

Would Build Endurance you like to learn how to Lose Body Fat eat right? Learn good Gain Muscle nutrition and never be hungry, and at the same Increase Self Esteem time get motivated? Live Healthier

Jonelle MCDaniel PROFESSIONAL – QUALITY – PRIVATE
If You Would Like To Receive Results Like These From Your Workout ...
At 71, personal trainer Jonelle McDaniel of It’s Never Too Late with five year old, great-granddaughter Lolli Miller is living proof that lifelong fitness can stave off the effects of aging.
It's been a long, cold winter, but summertime is here and that means vacations and a more active life. Personal trainer Jonelle McDaniel knows what she’s talking about – in fact, she’s the best possible advertisement for this regimen. She truly practices what she preaches, and it shows. Scientists are still discovering benefits to maintaining fitness throughout your life. Everyone knows exercise and eating right will keep your body fit and help you feel better at any age. But a recent article in the Wall Street Journal cited a study at the University of Illinois/Urbana that physical exercises can also improve your brain function. According to the article, as little as three hours a week of aerobic exercise increased the brain volume of grey matter (connections between neurons); professor Arthur Kramer said in the November issue of The Journal of Gerontology: Medical Sciences that after only three months, the people who exercised had brain volumes three years younger. Clients work with Jonelle in the privacy of her home. She has been a personal trainer for over 30 years and loves the challenge of helping clients reach their fitness potential. In addition to her own motivating skills, Jonelle uses the stabilze ball, BOSU ball, yoga, pilates, low-impact workouts and free weights that

are all tailored to each clients individual needs! The gym is a great place, but it's not for everyone, Jonelle says. Some women are intimidated and are not able to work at a fast pace. "I teach women to work out on their own and with a small amount of equipment," she said. "My ladies are very dedicated and loyal to their workout and me. I like to work one-on-one." McDaniel doesn’t espouse an easy solution to the problem of aging. Smaller portions at meal time and weight-bearing exercise is the only way to achieve real benefits – there is no magic pill or miracle diet. But when you consider the health problems and the medical bills most people encounter as they age, the cost of good nutrition and a personal trainer seems small. Seventy-five percent of illness is caused by a lack of exercise and bad habits. Stress-related illness, high blood pressure and cholesterol, even adult onset diabetes can all be traced back to unhealthy lifestyles. “I can teach you how to change your lifestyle and become a healthier and happier lady,” she says. “You can save money by changing those bad habits.” So ladies, if you think you can’t afford a personal trainer, ask yourself this: “Can I afford to be sick?” If not, call Jonelle today at home, 817237-0381 or on her cell at 817-706-0419.

Here’s one of two terribly wonderful stories
P
eople occasionally come up to me and say that they feel like they know me after reading this column each week. I think that’s a nice compliment but the Bride...well, not so much sometimes since I occasionally reveal something weird that has happened to me/us that’d she’d just as soon stay private. (Like snakes in dishwashers and whizzing on poison ivy to kill it.) Sorry, pumpkin, this is one of those columns. Actually, this is one of two of those columns that I have sat on for decades; now after 1,126 prior On Your Marks and 22 years, here’s the first one. It’s actually a terribly wonderful story of true love. Kinda.

marriage. Visiting, we had just finished eating supper – I’m sure mom made me something special, different from whatever everyone else had because, well, I’m special (a trait the Bride did not smile upon, by the way) – when the Bride volunteered to clean off the table. She got tossed a rag from the rag drawer. The Bride didn’t think much of the cloth at first. Yeah, it was kind of raggedy but would do the job. Then she noticed what it was – an old pair of male underwear, probably mine from several years prior. I had spent my entire life wiping tables off with underwear. Who hadn’t? Sure the tightie-whities were no longer suitable for their original purpose
– which, admittedly, lasted way longer than the usual shelf life in my case – but despite their holiness, wadded they cleaned off a dining room table just fine. Here’s the true love part: The (horrified) Bride went about cleaning the table, non-judgmental and smiling. (Afterward, however, she did wash her hands for 35 minutes.) You must really love somebody to use their old underwear on a tabletop and not make a federal case out of it. This concludes the first of two terribly wonderful stories. The second is a Thanksgiving tale and will arrive Nov. 24. Mark K. Campbell is the News editor and today his worn underwear mysteriously disappears.
How to be happy with your choices
H
Letter to the editor Prisoner exchange sets a bad example Dear Editor: Given the current events in the news, perhaps Rod Serling himself couldn’t have written a better script for The Twilight Zone. A soldier, Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl serving with a forward infantry line company in Afghanistan, goes missing in June 2009 and is later found to be held hostage by the enemy, the Taliban. Subsequent to that event, it was verified that this soldier voluntarily walked off his post for his own per-
sonal theater. Was this sergeant having some kind of Manchurian Candidate moment? Or maybe in search of his own nirvana when taking that dumb circuitous route? Whichever, he is a doggone deserter, plain and simple. Now, fast forward five years. Our brave commander-in-chief, Mr. Obama, does what he does best: a minuet balancing act of a tool for our enemy in releasing five of their terrorist fighters for one lone deserter without consulting Congress. Mr. Obama has now legitimized terrorists as equivalents to military POWs. He has now put five absolute monsters right back on the streets to
kill more Americans. To add insult to injury, this character Bergdahl is given a hero’s welcome by the White House administration, the media, and even the state of Idaho – Bergdahl’s home state is giving this military lawbreaker a ticker-tape parade. I would encourage any reader of this opinion to visit any VFW or military base and ask those fine men and women who served and are serving of their thoughts on this deserter. Also, check your history: deserters’ homecomings weren’t a hero’s welcome – but a firing squad. Joseph Bryan Fort Worth

Son of Italian immigrant miner becomes famous artist
O
n an architectural tour of Tucson, Ariz. last October while attending the Western History Association convention, I saw the home of famous artist Ted DeGrazia. It was a plain little house set in the foothills north of the city. One of our tour guides, Bob Vint, is an architect and teaches that subject part-time at the University of Arizona. We also toured a chapel that DeGrazia built. Vint told us that it is open all year long, and people get married there. His Gallery in the Sun was farther up in the foothills, and unfortunately, we didn't get to see it. (This was a whirlwind tour!) We saw more houses. Vint told us that DeGrazia made a lot of money with his painting, but many serious artists did not think he was as good as they were. They criticized him for being too commercial by duplicating so many copies of his art and selling it to a mass market.
THE
So who was Ted DeGrazia? Born Ettore DeGrazia on June 14, 1909 in the mining country of Arizona to Italian immigrants, he was one of seven children. Teachers had trouble pronouncing his first name, so one of them called him “Ted,” and it stuck. Because the mine closed, his family moved back to Italy in 1920. There he became fascinated with art in the cathedrals. When the mines reopened five years later, the family moved back to the U.S. Because he forgot English while in Italy, teachers put Ted back in the first grade at age 16, but he studied and graduated in 1932. He began working in the mines with his father and the rest of his family, but he didn't like being underground all day and never seeing the sun. He wanted a better life than that. In 1933 DeGrazia left home with only $15 and caught a ride into Tucson to enroll in the University of Arizona. He worked as a landscaper and a trumpet player to pay his way, majoring in
art. In 1936 he met and married Alexandra Diamos whose father owned a string of movie theaters. The newlyweds moved to Bisbee, Ariz. to manage one of them.

Tucson while land was cheap. He and a later wife lived with no electricity, water or other services, cooking on a wood stove and showering outside with water in a bucket. His studio was a small adobe room. On this land he constructed what he called his “Gallery in the Sun” which was finished in 1965. It currently houses thirteen different galleries of his original artwork. In 1960 the United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF) asked for permission to use DeGrazia's painting of “Los Ninos” on greeting cards. This brought him fame because millions were reproduced and sold worldwide. He presently is called “the most reproduced artist in the world.” “Los Ninos” was recreated in many forms: print, decals, collector plates, needlepoint, books and key chains. Each of us most likely have seen “Los Ninos” at some time Ted DeGrazia died September 17, 1982 of cancer at the age of 73. He is buried near his Gallery, which has

been placed on the National Register of Historic Places. A DeGrazia Foundation provides funding for the exhibitions of his work, and Tour Guide Vint is on its board. One of Arizona's best known painters, DeGrazia is renowned for his images of “angel-like” Native American or Hispanic children of the Southwest. His biographers James and Marilyn Johnson wrote that he lived his life “with passion and verve, embracing risk and romance.” They said that he liked to greet visitors to his Gallery dressed like a prospector with scraggly beard, jeans, flannel shirt, boots, and a beat up cowboy hat. I think I will keep an eye out for one of his many commercialized images of “Los Ninos.” With so many in circulation, surely I can find a keychain of it or something!

Lieutenant governor’s challenger wins runoff
R
epublican voters picked Dan Patrick to face Democrat Leticia Van de Putte in the race for lieutenant governor in November. Patrick received 65 percent of the vote to incumbent Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst’s 35 percent in the May 27 runoff. Sen. Patrick, R-Houston, and Sen. Van de Putte, D-San Antonio, have seven years and 15 years of experience, respectively, as members of the 31-member Senate. Van de Putte ran unopposed in the March Democratic Party Primary. Dewhurst has presided over the Senate since 2003. His term of office will expire on Dec. 31. A businessman in private life, Dewhurst has been credited for his leadership in balancing five two-year state budgets and in building a multi-billion dollar “rainy day” fund to be tapped in fiscal emergencies.
In other party primary runoff results, incumbent Republican U.S. Sen. John Cornyn will face Dallas businessman Dr. David M. Alameel, a Democrat, in the November general election. Alameel won the primary runoff with 72 percent of the vote to Kesha Rogers of Houston’s 28 percent. Jim Hogan of Cleburne won the Democratic runoff for agriculture commissioner over Richard S. “Kinky” Friedman. Hogan’s opponent in November will be former state Rep. Sid Miller of Stephenville, who beat former state Rep. Tommy Merritt of Longview in the GOP runoff. Â State Sen. Ken Paxton of McKinney, with 63.6 percent of the vote, won the GOP runoff for attorney general against state Rep. Dan Branch of Dallas, who received 36.4 percent. Pasadena oil, gas and petrochemical consultant Ryan Sitton won the GOP runoff for a seat on the three-member Texas Railroad Commission in a con-

Greenville physician Dr. Bob Deuell, a longSTATE serving member CAPITAL of the T e x a s HIGHLIGHTS S e n a t e , Ed Sterling was defeated by 300 votes in a runoff against Bob Hall of Edgewood. And, incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Ralph Hall of Rockwall, with 47.2 percent of the vote, lost in his runoff bid against John Ratcliffe, who received 52.8 percent. The outcome of this runoff was reported in the national news. Hall, 91, is a World War II veteran and the oldest member
of the U.S. House of Representatives. He was a Democrat when he first entered the House in 1981 and in 2004 switched to the Republican Party. Ratcliffe, who served under thenPresident George W. Bush as a U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Texas, also served eight terms as mayor of Heath, Texas, a municipality just south of Hall’s home in Rockwall, 30 minutes east of Dallas. Coming up this month are state party conventions during which nominations will be made official. The Republican State Convention will be held at the Fort Worth Convention Center from June 5-7 and the Democratic State Convention will be held June 26-28 at the Dallas Convention Center. Hearing focuses on impeachment Steps toward impeachment of University of Texas System regent Wallace Hall of Dallas continued May 21 when the
House Select Committee on Transparency in State Agency Operations met. Earlier in May the panel voted to move forward in processes leading toward having Hall removed from office. The panel and the state’s Public Integrity Unit have been investigating Hall for nearly a year to determine if the regent misused his office in an attempt to have UT President William Powers Jr. fired. Invited to testify was Jeff Archer, Texas Legislative Council assistant executive counsel who explained the framework for developing articles of impeachment. Any member or group of members of the Legislature may confidentially submit a proposed article of impeachment, and submitted material would be parceled out to a trio of drafting attorneys, he said, adding that articles of impeachment drawn up by the House would be subject to review by Senate. Texas House Parliamentarian
Chris Griesel testified, saying the House could be called back into session by either by proclamation of the governor or by a majority of members of the House. If the committee were to adopt articles of impeachment to present for consideration in the House, steps would have to be taken such as publication of notice in newspapers giving the particulars of a special convening of the Legislature, Griesel said. There is a record of how the Legislature has handled such matters, Griesel said, in the 1917 impeachment of Gov. James A. Ferguson and in the 1975-76 impeachment of state District Judge O.P. Carrillo. But there is no record of an impeachment of an appointed state official. Hall was appointed a six-year term as a UT regent by Gov. Rick Perry in 2011. Veteran state reporter and legislative analyst Ed Sterling is member services director for the Texas Press Association, whose 518 member newspapers have combined circulation of 3.7 million.
Letters to the editor Mission Hills is appreciative The Castle Hills Mission House want to extend a big thank you to all of the people in Azle who donated food during the recent food drive. Also, as always, a sincere thank you goes out to all of the postal workers who collected the food that was left at mailboxes throughout the city. Collecting food for this drive added a lot of work for each postal worker, but, as always, they manage to collect many sacks of food which they donated to local food pantries. Without the ongoing generosity of the people of Azle, food pantries like Castle Hills Mission House would not be able to feed those who are hungry. The Castle Hills Mission House is located at 400 Beverly Road here in Azle. It was started 16 years ago by a group of people who wanted to provide help to local people who were hungry. It was grown from feeding just a few famlies each month to feeding approximately 1,000 people each month. The Mission House is sup-

In Justin, Hornets qualify for state 7-on-7 tourney Azle headed to College Station next month BY MArk k. CAMPBeLL Well, that didn’t take long. In Azle’s first qualifying 7-on7 tourney, the Hornets locked in a berth at the state event. Azle won a flip with Southlake Carroll to make AHS the victors of a tourney conducted at Northwest High. Earlier, the Hornets had won a non-qualifier by going undefeated. Azle didn’t lose in Justin, either. In pool play, AHS mowed down Fort Worth Paschal, Boswell, and Dallas W.T. White. That set up a semifinal clash with the hosts; the Hornets dashed Northwest 47-15.
Carroll awaited in the finals, but the Dragons and Hornets agreed not to play since both qualified for state by virtue of a top two finish. Azle cancelled the rest of their qualifying tourney schedule to focus on fundraising to get to College Station for the July 11-12 Division I gathering. Hornets will be washing cars at Arby’s, 201 North Stewart Street, on June 14 beginning at 9 a.m. All AHS squads – including the 11-0 varsity – will continue to play league games. Azle is the host team June 9-10; junior highs only play on the first date. The 7-on-7 football Hornets qualified for the state tournament in its first outing at Northwest May 31.

Woman teeing up golf program focusing on girls Wanted: female golfers. Azle has a super golf course so why not train some girl golfers from the area? That’s the concept Beverly Simants is involved in. She’s the “site director” of a new girls golf program slated for Cross Timbers Golf Course. The program is sanctioned
by the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) and the United States Golf Association (USGA). The developmental program targets ages 7 to 17 with hopes of becoming a network for girls to not only play the sport but “build friendships and sample competition in a positive and supportive learning environ-
ment,” Simants noted. Girls will work with LPGA or Professional Golfers Association of America instructors. Those teachers will introduce girls to a variety of golfing areas including rules, etiquette, full swing, short game, and putting. The non-profit is the only national initiative of its kind
just for girls, a press release noted. The concept is to provide opportunity to achieve success, progress in golf, and establish a life-long interest in the game. Simants said she is anxious to get the word out about the new program “so that more girls from our communities might have the opportunity to
participate in this newly forming program.” The fledgling LPGA-USGA program isn’t entirely golf focused. Junior female golfers will develop self-esteem with new opportunities and responsibilities. “It will provide incentive to continue to progress and
improve their game with the multi-level instruction for various abilities,” the release noted. Some girls will serve on a junior advisory board. Golf themed activities are also slated. For more information on the program, contact Simants at girlsgolfofazle@aol.com.
Local archery coach training champions here An Azle man is coaching world champions right here. Jesse Johnson instructs archery and two of his athletes trained here have achieved substantial success. Denton’s Lindsey Smith won a bronze medal in the Junior Compound division of the U.S. National Field Archery Championships. That earned her a place on the United States team. She will compete in Zagreb, Croatia in August. Also at those championships, Shelby Warrington, from Arlington, won the cadet compound division. Johnson said field archery is the toughest of all venues. Archers must shoot on extreme uphills, down hills and sharp angles. “This requires constant yardage estimation and drop comArchery instructor Jesse Johnson watches (l-r) Denton’s Lindsey Smith, a USA Jr. World Cup team member, pensation calculations to hit your mark,” he said. Shelby Warrington from Arlington, a U.S. National Field champion, and Azle’s Brandie Phillips.
Johnson himself has competed at this elite level and he said he knows the pressure and skill required. “As a high level competitor, I know the hours of practice, discipline, and sacrifices you have to make to achieve this accomplishment,” he said. Johnson said he trains amateurs and newcomers right along with his world champions. “I have access around my house to shoot out to 90 meters,” he said. Johnson added, “The influence and sportsmanship of these kids is just amazing.” He said several of his charges have reached the podium at the local, regional, state, and national levels.

Cowgirl competes in high school rodeo finals
Last week’s story on Azle High School cowgirl Bailey Kavanaugh had some unclear information in it. Her performance at the North

An advanced volleyball camp is scheduled for July 31 and Aug. 1. Finally, a football camp for incoming grades 2-9 – two sessions – arrives Aug. 4-7.

HGTV comes to town Auctions and filming for new series during June By Natalie geNtry Home & Garden Television (HGTV) is visiting these parts. The national network is filming a new series in the surrounding area that will feature three teams of Texas house movers who not only pick up and move houses, but completely renovate them then auction them off. A statement from the auction flyer calls the show “a fun, fastpaced renovation series full of Texas charm.” The series is scheduled to air on the Do It Yourself Network as well as HGTV and Great American Country. The finished homes will feature detailed designs and decorations. The production is reaching out to artists and local shops around the DFW area to feature
art and furniture to be staged in the homes and filmed for the show. “One major Azle group that we have worked with is Azle High School,” said Supervising Field Producer, Liz Buckley. “The AHS shop class has assisted our Azle-based house mover, Just Right Transportation, in building a decorative feature piece for one of the houses we are renovating as part of a class project.” Four of the recently renovated houses were open for viewing by the public May 31 prior to the auction Saturday, June 7. Ranging from a studio style cabin to three bedroom homes, the houses have been completely renovated and are decorated in varying styles. HGTV notes the auctions are
a rare opportunity for the public to get a bargain on a renovated home that they can place on their own piece of land. Auction dates are: Saturday, June 7 Saturday, June 14 Saturday, June 21 Saturday, June 28 Preview days are slated the day before each auction from 4-7 p.m. Houses have been set up at 14400 FM 730 north of Azle. Additional previews on the day of the auctions begin at 9 a.m. The actual auctions begin at 1 p.m. Free on-site parking is available on a first come, first served basis until the lot is full.
