April 21 7:25 a.m. – The security alarm at a local store was sounding. An officer made contact with an employee, who had entered the wrong code. Sometimes a “5” can look like a “6” on an early Monday morning. 1:56 p.m. – A store clerk requested assistance from animal control to remove a bird that had gotten into the building. The bird escaped into the attic and couldn’t be captured. 8:05 p.m. – An alarm sounded at a local bank. An officer responded but upon arrival was advised to disregard it after the alarm company said it was a false alarm. 9:17 p.m. – A complainant advised that a vehicle trying to go up a hill on Main Street left the roadway. An officer responded and a report was taken. These hills can be tough to navigate sometimes. 9:54 p.m. – A one-vehicle traffic accident occurred on U.S. Highway 62 West near the Razorback Gift Shop. Officer and EMS responded, and a report was taken. April 22 10:06 a.m. – An officer arrested a woman at a local inn on two warrants: one out of the Lowell Police Department for failure to pay fines and another out of Taney County, Mo., for probation violation. 11:50 a.m. – A caller reported a possibly intoxicated male subject walking eastbound on Highway 62 near Dollar General in a plaid shirt and dark pants, stumbling around. Eureka Springs Police Chief Earl Hyatt happened to be driving on 62 at the time of the call and advised no one was seen walking along the highway. I guess his stumbles came to a stop.

3:05 p.m. – A man turned himself in on a Eureka Springs warrant for criminal mischief. He was then bonded and released. April 23 10 a.m. – An officer arrested a woman during a routine traffic stop on the charge of driving on a suspended license and for a Eureka Springs warrant for failure to appear. 7:06 p.m. – A man advised that two men were going door-to-door on Deer Lane selling chicken and beef. Officers made contact with the individuals and advised them that they can’t do that in the city limits. Buying chicken and beef from someone who shows up at your door does seem a bit suspicious. 8:08 p.m. – An accident occurred at the intersection of U.S. Highway 62 and Hidden Valley Ranch Road. Eureka officers responded and filed a report. April 25 10:08 a.m. – A caller on Kansas Street reported that his vehicle was stolen overnight, along with his medicine and debit card, adding that he suspected his son was involved. Arkansas law enforcement agencies were advised to be on the lookout for the vehicle. Arkansas State Police made a traffic stop on the vehicle at Lake Leatherwood, and the son was taken into custody for driving on a suspended license. 2:22 p.m. – The transit department reported a semi truck on the historic loop near the intersection of Prospect and Ridgeway. Officers escorted the driver to the Crescent Hotel to get him turned around and back out to the highway. Eureka’s streets can be difficult to navigate even if you’re not driving a big semi.

Carol Morrison, with husband Jeff Morrison, poses with the Holiday Island Singers at a rehearsal for their spring concert, “Love American Style,” featuring love songs and patriotic songs.
Love, American Style Holiday Island Singers tune in to theme By Jennifer Jackson JJackson.Citizen@gmail.com
Carol and Jeff Morrison met when they were students at Evangel University in Springfield, Mo. They got married in 1980, and raised two children. A classically trained singer, Carol was a church choir director wherever the family moved: Huntington, West Virginia; Cherry Hill, New Jersey; Lawrenceville, Ga., and Lansdale, Penn. In 2012, the Morrisons moved to Holiday Island, where Carol was asked to become the director of the Holiday Island Singers. This weekend, she is directing the chorale’s spring concert, “Love American Style,” for which she chose romantic love songs from different decades and songs about love of country. “I like themes,” Carol Morrison said. The first song of the concert actually IS “Love American Style,” the theme song of the 1970s television show. The singers will perform “Over the Rainbow,” “Don’t Sit Under the Apple Tree,” and “Love Me Tender.” Featuring music that people know the words to makes the concerts fun for the audience, Morrison said. “Everybody is going to recognize these songs,” Morrison said. The second half of the concert features patriotic songs and a salute to the armed forces. Members of each branch of the mili-
tary will be present. Boy Scouts from Troop 67 will bring in flags of each service branch and the chorale will sing its official song. A color guard with drum cadence will conduct the flag ceremony. The program concludes “America the Beautiful,” “God Bless the USA,” and “The Spirit of America.” The concert also includes song by the chorale’s 14-member ensemble, a piano duet, a reading and three solos. Vicki Vanderhorn will sing “At Last,” the Etta James classic from the 1940s. Jerry Malmstrom will sing “True Love,” the Cole Porter song from the movie “High Society,” and Carol Morrison will sing “Making You Feel My Love.” Diana Brown is the chorale’s accompanist. There will be two performances of “Love American Style,” on Saturday, May 3, and Sunday, May 4, both at 3 p.m. in the Holiday Island (Golf Course) Clubhouse, near from the main entrance to Holiday Island off Highway 23 North across from the Holiday Island shopping center. Tickets are $10 for adults. Students free. Note: Members of the Holiday Island Rotary Club will be selling subscriptions for its community flag program at the concert, with $10 going to the Holiday Island Singers. A $30 annual subscription sponsors a flag to be set out on the main road through Holiday Island on six holidays by Rotarians.
Jerry Malmstrom will sing “True Love,” a Cole Porter song from the movie “High Society.” Malmstrom is holding a copy of the sheet music that belonged to his mother.
Carol Morrison acknowledges the group singing “Happy Birthday” to her at last week’s rehearsal.

Toddler dies in one-car collision By Kristal Kuykendall
Citizen.Editor.Eureka@gmail.com
A family friend arrives at the scene and is stunned to learn the gruesome details.
Doug Anderson of Bergman was one of the first on the scene as he was traveling through the area. Anderson assisted, along with 10-plus other Good Samaritans, by consoling the startled infant Eligah Burlingame moments after the wreck.
ESFD Assistant Chief Paramedic Tom Dransfield douses the last hotspot on the car that had been engulfed in flames moments prior, when first responders arrived.
Two serious accidents over the weekend in the Eureka Springs area left one child dead and sent five to area hospitals, some with critical injuries, authorities said. On Friday afternoon, Eureka Springs Fire and EMS were first on the scene of a one-vehicle wreck at 1427 Highway 23 South, a little over a mile past Acord’s. The car, a 2003 red Dodge Stratus, had veered off the roadway for unknown reasons and hit a large tree head-on, police said. It was fully engulfed in flames when first responders arrived, said officials with the Eureka Springs Fire Department. A toddler, Heaven Burlingame, age 23 months, was pronounced dead at the scene, according to Arkansas State Police reports. Her body was transported to the Washington County Coroner’s Office, Trooper Jaran McCormick said in his report. The woman driving, Lauren Burlingame of Huntsville, age 19, was entrapped in the badly mangled and burning car, and ESFD had to use the Jaws of Life and cut out the dashboard in order to remove her. She reportedly suffered severe burns as well as multiple lacerations, and she was eventually taken to Northwest Hospital in Springdale. Also in the front was passenger James
Fogerty, 20, of Springdale, who suffered lacerations and burns and was taken to Springdale. Airlifted to Mercy in Springfield was infant Eligah Burlingame of Springdale. His condition was said to be stable afterward but an update on his condition from Mercy Hospital was not released as of press time. Both children were reportedly in the back seat in child seats at the time of the accident, authorities said. The highway was shut down for over an hour after the accident as first responders attended to the injured and deceased. On the other side of town on Saturday afternoon, a four-vehicle accident on Highway 62 West near the top of Busch Mountain required the assistance of a dozen first responders from Inspiration Point Fire Department as well as State Police and sheriff’s deputies and two ambulances from Eureka Springs. Eight victims from the accident were evaluated for injuries on the scene, and two were transported by ambulance to area hospitals, IPFD said. The highway was shut down for about an hour and a half. The State Police report on that accident was unavailable as of press time, authorities said.

Citizens’ input sought on Trails Master Plan Public forum will be held May 15 at Convention Center on plan draft By Landon Reeves
CCNnews@cox-internet.com
The Eureka Springs Trails Committee will host a public forum to inform residents about and gather their input on the Eureka Springs Trails Master Plan Draft. The meeting will be held on Thursday, May 15, at 6 p.m., at the Inn of the Ozarks Convention Center. A copy of the Master Plan Draft can be viewed online at www.EurekaParks.com, can be requested via email at esparks@arkansas. net, or copies are available at the Parks Office at 532 Spring St, 479-253-2866. The Parks and Recreation Commission and the Trails Committee created an initial concept plan for a master trail months ago, but there are still several steps – some of which have become contentious – that the project must go through before any trails come to fruition and the public forum is one of them, said Parks officials. After the forum the PRC will take the suggestions of residents to the Trails Committee and have them change the plan to fit any concerns of residents and the City Council. Then they will approve the plan and introduce it to the Planning Commission, who will review it and either give it back to Parks for more changes or give it to the City Council with a recommendation to approve it, explained Parks Director Bruce Levine. If the council approves, then the PRC and Trails Committee will begin to seek funding for the trails and will conduct multiple surveys to determine the impact of the proposed trails, and find out whether land for a trail is available in the planned area. But the first and foremost concern of the PRC is getting the city’s approval, Levine said. “We would like to see (the final plan)
submitted as a amendment or addendum to the city master plan,” Levine said. “Before we do anything, we will contact all land owners that are adjacent to the trail or that may have interest in the trail. We will use whatever means possible to make sure we talk to everyone along those segments, have a formal meeting with them and look at all the issues, whatever they may be to make sure we can solve them.” Virginia and Bill Voiers, property owners near one of the proposed trails, said the initial trails plan makes them concerned about their safety as well as their privacy. The initial plans have one of the trails running along the backside of their property near their home. “We are desperately against it, it is very invasive and it makes us vulnerable to burglars,” she said. “There were other people who opposed it too. I think the problem is in this town the houses are so close together, so if you are on a trail or path, you are going to be looking through someone’s bedroom windows.” Her husband went on to explain that a trail would allow someone to easily access their property unseen and undetected until the intruder was at their back door. If anyone agrees with the Voiers or wants to voice their opinion for the public trails then the forum would be the most appropriate place to do it, officials said. If anyone would like to stay informed on the Trails Committee and the PRC they may attend either of their regular meetings. The Trail Committee usually meets on Wednesdays at 5:30 p.m. in the Parks offices at Harmon Park, but this week’s meeting might be postponed, Levine said. The PRC meets every third Tuesday at 6 p.m. in City Hall.

Ex-Play employee building film career in Los Angeles By Kathryn Lucariello CCNhi@cox-internet.com
LOS ANGELES, CALIF. – Carroll County native and former Passion Play employee Wesley Chappell went for the bright lights, big city of Los Angeles five years ago, and now he is seeing his dream start to come true of doing what he loves – working in the film industry as an actor, producer and promoter of new filmmakers Wesley Chappell in this new climate of decentralized entertainment. Recently, he has achieved eligibility to become a member of the Screen Actors’ Guild – a huge accomplishment for a person starting out in the industry. “I’ve been working toward this for the past three or four years,” he said. “I’ve struggled getting there, but it’s slowly happening.” But this wasn’t how Chappell started out. He was on an entirely different track. After graduating from Berryville High School, he went to the University of Missouri at Rolla to study engineering. “I wanted to go into mechanical and aerospace, but then I got some of the course syllabus for later on and saw differential equations and fluids, and that seemed way too difficult,” he said by phone from Los Angeles. “So I switched to architectural and civil engineering.” His father had been in construction, and Chappell had worked with him on several projects. After working a summer with an architectural firm, he realized it wasn’t really what he wanted to do. He looked into going to film school in L.A., and moved there in 2008. Chappell credits his early experiences
in church and in school with his interest in things artistic. “Looking back, I remember I had written a couple small skits and had always been involved in church plays and even worked at the Great Passion Play [in Eureka Springs] for awhile,” he said. “It was always intriguing to me to step into someone else’s shoes like that, but I didn’t remember that until a couple of years after I got here.” He also remembers teachers who helped and inspired him, such as art teacher Sara Russell and Sam Davis, his physics teacher. “And spending time in Eureka around the vibe of the people there, who are really open and willing to put it out there with their vision of the world and art,” Chappell said. “A lot of people don’t get a chance like that, that open mind of creation and seeing things beautifully.” Chappell has several film credits, such as a short black and white film “Yolanda” (2011), “Road to Red” (2014), “Temporal Party” (2014) and “Match” (2013), a serialized Web show in which individual episodes are tied together by a common theme. Chappell says the show is the same kind you see on network or cable television, but it runs on the Web. “It’s made for less money, but the distribution platform is the Internet instead of a movie theater or television,” he said. “We’re reaching out to a couple different possibilities for distribution. All major entertainment companies have these online platforms they release content through. With the new wave of everyone using laptops or iPhones or mobile devices to watch things, the Web has become its own kind of medium now where you don’t have to go through the bells and whistles of distribution. It’s a completely new venue.” The “Match” series is also a good example of decentralized production, he said. It is promoted by www.myteevee. tv, which Chappell says is “like a FaceSee Chappell, page 23

Spring weather blesses springs’ Blessing By Jennifer Jackson
JJackson.Citizen@gmail.com
The third annual Blessing of the Springs brought an ecumenical spiritual aspect to Eureka’s city-wide Earth Day celebration last week. While it rained on last year’s Blessing, this year’s event was held under blue skies. About three dozen people joined in, processing from spring to spring from Crescent to Basin Spring. At the Crescent
Spring gazebo, Ron Dugger from the Unitarian fellowship read a devotion and led a prayer. Maryann LeGrande read a poem titled “Water,” by Ralph Waldo Emerson, who was a Unitarian minister, and Margo Pirkle read a speech by Chief Seattle. At Harding Spring, Diana Henry led a native American blessing and litany of thanksgiving, then passed out blue cornmeal. Using cornmeal in ceremonies is a tradition, she said.

“We are finding ways to connect again to the water, and this is one tiny way,” she said. At Sweet Spring, Doug Phillips, assistant minister at First United Methodist Church, read a passage about diversity and mankind’s common link to the planet. UMC music director Marie Sathrum and choir members led the singing of “Morning Has Broken” and “Let’s Sing Unto the Lord.”
At Basin Park, participants gathered around Basin Spring and dropped cornmeal in the water. The Rev. Ben Helmer of Saint James Episcopal Church led a litany of thanksgiving and a prayer. The Rev. Betsy Porter and Don Omundson of St. James also participated in the event. Barbara Harmony of the Eureka Springs Parks’ Springs Committee inaugurated Eureka’s Blessing of the Springs, borrowing from a tradition in Britain.

Great Passion Play opens this weekend Local residents offered $5 tickets for opening performances The Great Passion Play opens this weekend, with shows on Friday and Saturday, May 2 and 3, kicking off its 47th season, and Carroll County residents can receive discounted tickets for opening weekend for just $5 each. Featuring a cast of 180, the Play is performed amid a 550-foot, historically accurate stage, bringing to life the thrilling epic drama surrounding Christ’s last days on earth, including his death, resurrection and ascension. GPP is offering specially discounted tickets for locals. Residents of Carroll County can get tickets for only $5 for performances of the Great Passion Play on opening weekend. Simply show proof of residence in Carroll County and enjoy the Play, the Bible Museum, the Sacred Arts Museum, free music concerts, David the Shepherd, and the Parables of the Potter. The Great Passion Play runs 1 hour and 45 minutes, featuring an original musical score composed by Phil Perkins and performed by the world-renowned National Philharmonic Orchestra of London. This year’s performance will also feature horses, donkeys, and dozens of birds as well as four camels donated by the Wild Wilderness Drive through Safari in Gentry, Arkansas. This year marks the GPP’s second year of operation under new management since it nearly closed for good at the end of 2012. Last year saw a slow but steady recovery in ticket sales and other revenue, officials
there have said. “Our numbers in 2013 were much stronger than in previous years,” GPP President Randall Christy said. Christy, founder of The Gospel Station Network of Ada, Okla., spearheaded the fundraising effort that prevented the Play from entering foreclosure in December 2012. “Last year was a year of good news for us,” said Christy, who now serves as the president and CEO of the nonprofit foundation that runs the GPP. “We raised $75,000 in 10 days at the beginning of the year to save the Play. We welcomed our 7.7 millionth visitor. And, we even set our fiveyear, single-night attendance record. Now we look toward having an even better 2014 season!” In 2014, the Great Passion Play will also welcome other performers and special events to Eureka Springs and the GPP grounds. “The Great Passion Play is the foundation of what we do. At the same time, we recognize that there are many other talented Christian-friendly artists,” said Marketing and Public Relations Director Kent Butler. “In that spirit, we will be hosting Gospel Music Celebration Concerts on June 21 and 22, featuring Red Roots, the Greenes, the Freemans, the Nelons, the Dixie Melody Boys, Southern SONlight, the Williamsons, Chris Hester, the Graves Family, Clancy Davis, Dylan Hall, and more.”
Butler added, “We have many other special events this year, including trail rides, a Sunday School retreat conference, a backto-school concert, a missions’ conference, a Deaf Awareness Weekend, and ‘Bikes, Bibles, and BBQ’ in conjunction with Bikes, Blues, and BBQ.” He also mentioned that people who have seen the Play in the past can be guests in the production. “We are excited to give people an opportunity to become a part of the experience. A limited number of people per performance will actually be able to walk the streets of Jerusalem and join us in recreating the events in the last week of the life of Christ.” To take advantage of this opportunity, simply mention that you would like to be in the Play when you make your reservation via phone (regular ticket prices still apply),
and the reservation assistant will direct you to the right person. “We have backstage tours during the day,” Butler said, “but this is more like a backstage experience because you actually help bring Jerusalem to life. We provide the costumes, but just make sure that you bring your own sandals.” The Great Passion Play’s 2014 season will run from the first weekend of May through the last weekend of October. Ticket reservations, performance schedules and special event information are available online at www.GreatPassionPlay.org or call 800-882-7529. Residents can use the coupon code CARROLLCOUNTY to make reservations online and present valid photo ID or proof of residence when they pick up their tickets for Friday, May 2 and Saturday, May 3.

Editorial
What is making us smile, frown The Lovely County Citizen would like to give a big shout-out and kudos to the student body of Eureka Springs High School, for being “cool” enough to know when a king is in their midst. The students recently voted their counterpart and special-needs student Max Hart as king, letting him and the rest of the world know that sometimes you CAN be just a little different and still be the coolest, most-loved kid on the block. In a world where movies, television and magazines dictate how teens are supposed to look, act and feel – and who they’re supposed to put on pedestals as the “cool kids” – our Eureka Springs teenagers broke the rules of pop culture in favor of their own guidelines for who deserved to be Prom King. From what we hear, Max Hart couldn’t deserve the honor any more than he does. Same goes for the rest of the court, which included Queen Brittany Harrison, Prince Allan Gammill and Princess Thalia Colvin-Ortega. Congrats to the Prom Court, but even bigger congratulations goes to the students who cast the votes. Y’all make us proud. Yet another tourism-related business went up for sale this week as the owner of a local inn placed an ad with the Citizen notifying the public of this business opportunity. Yes, it is a business opportunity, but there are so many of them around these days – so many tourism businesses up for sale, we mean – that it might not look like one at first. This entire town is an opportunity for tourism success, but so many road blocks exist – fodder for other editorials, for discussions on other days. Those of us who want our town to thrive and bring in more and more visitors are concerned as we see restaurants, hotels, inns and other tourism-related businesses sitting vacant and empty. We, for one, are worried. It’s time for all of us to get involved in making Eureka Springs a success, however that we individually choose to do so. A good
place to start: Attend the City Advertising and Promotion Commission meetings, held the second Wednesday of each month at the courthouse. Give your feedback and ideas for success to any of the CAPC commissioners or to your City Council members. For more info about the CAPC, visit www. CAPC.biz. The Arkansas Supreme Court has, thankfully, expedited four cases that will settle the debate over whether candidates whose attorney’s licenses have been under administrative suspension are eligible to run for office. Local candidates Prosecuting Attorney Robert “Tony” Rogers’ and Circuit Court Judge Gerald “Kent” Crow’s eligibility to run in the upcoming election could be affected by the court’s decisions. In previous stories, we reported that Rogers’ and Crow’s attorney licenses had been briefly suspended for failure to pay their attorney-license fees before the early March deadline. The suspensions were lifted after they paid the dues plus a fee for being late. Paying the licensing fee late is not anything new for attorneys and judges – though we question whether someone with such authority over our lives should be allowed to overlook such requirements without any repercussions – but seeking a legal decision on whether this could affect their candidacy in upcoming elections is new. Four civil suits that specifically deal with candidate eligibility are now before the state Supreme Court. In three of the four cases, a lower-level civil judge has ruled that the administrative suspension should not bar a candidate from the election. We’re unsure how we feel about this exactly, but if two of our county’s top law enforcers cannot follow the law regarding their own attorney’s licenses, well, what does that say about their ability to perform the rest of their duties? This definitely falls under the category of things that make us go hmmmm…
Citizens of the Week The folks at the ECHO Clinic have nominated Danny Smith and Beverly Beard, pharmacists at Smith Drug Co., as this week’s Citizens of the Week. In fact, the entire staff at Smith Drug Co. has earned the designation, says Janet Arnett, administrator at the ECHO Clinic, because of their volunteer work for the clinic and because Smith et al get medications for the ECHO Clinic at their cost, not charging anything for the service. “ECHO Clinic would like to include all the following pharmacists and pharmacy technicians who volunteer at ECHO: Smith, Beard, Jim Girkin, Gabe Roy, Floy Fowler, Spence Mabry, Jane Joubert and Bill Fort, and pharmacy technicians Kim Parks, Melinda Large, Nancy Fultz and Patti Marler. We greatly appreciate these volunteers who give of their time, talent and professional education,” Arnett wrote to the Citizen. It’s folks like those at Smith Drug Co. who, in an atmosphere of need and health-care shortfalls, help the world go ‘round. We thank you.

Save the Ozarks appreciates that last week’s guest commenter in the Lovely County Citizen urged readers to keep supporting Save the Ozarks. The AEP/SWEPCO transmission line will be stopped if the Arkansas Public Service Commission reconsiders Save the Ozarks’ petition for a full rehearing, holds the rehearing and rules in our favor. If not then, it will be stopped if the Arkansas State Court of Appeals rules in our favor. If not then, it will be stopped if the Arkansas Supreme Court rules in our favor. Since we have shown clearly that the transmission line is not needed and that AEP/SWEPCO failed to meet numerous statutory requirements, we are optimistic that the state’s highest courts of law will give these matters their careful attention and rule in our favor. The commenter raised another important issue — the possible use of helicopters in constructing AEP/ SWEPCO’s proposed transmission line. However, line construction is a one-time event. A bigger concern is the repetitive and possibly perpetual use of helicopters for right-of-way (ROW) vegetation management. AEP/SWEPCO uses helicopters equipped with large, multi-blade saws for trimming trees in ROWs. Using this method, trees can be trimmed on about 4 miles of ROW per day. Helicopters flying so slowly and so low — at about a 40-foot height — can

Save the Ozarks made AEP/SWEPCO’s standard easement agreement publicly available (in late February). It has since been posted on our website and Facebook page, and we recently mailed copies to all landowners identified by AEP/SWEPCO as property owners on their Routes 33 and 109.

Response to anonymous letter listing multiple issues with ES Hospital Yes, conversations must be kept open regarding the construction of a new hospital, but building one would not be “a huge waste of time and money.” True, the present building is old, but it doesn’t interfere with the quality of care patients receive. Having been a patient there, both for longer periods as well as in the Emergency Room, both on more than one occasion, I can truthfully say that the quality of care I received cannot be faulted and I say with confidence that it is

Youth Council awards $5.4K in grants By Jennifer Jackson
JJackson.Citizen@gmail.com
The Youth Advisory Council of the Carroll County Community Foundation awarded 10 grants totaling $5,400 to non-profits for projects benefitting Carroll County youth and children at Berryville City Park Tuesday. YAC members are students at Eureka Springs, Berryville and Green Forest high schools, Clear Spring School or homeschooled. This year, they screened 22 applications for grants totaling more than $16,000, according to CCCF director Janelle Robertson. It’s a good way to teach students about community service, philanthropy and giving back. “We learn about the needs of the community and how people are fulfilling those needs through non-profits,” Roberson said. “They’re the heros of this whole thing.” Matthew McClung of Eureka Springs High School presented a grant E.S.H.S teacher Katy Turnbaugh to buy equipment for a class project monitoring water quality in Eureka Springs. McClung also presented a grant to Grayson and Kegley Ertel and Jacob Eastburn of the Eureka Springs Youth Soccer Program for purchase of equipment. E.S. Youth Soccer serves ages 4 to 14. Raven Leggett of Clear Spring School presented a grant to April Griffith of the Eureka Springs Carnegie Library to develop an e-book collection and outreach program for middle school students. The library plans to take e-readers and e-books into middle-school classrooms to serve an under-served segment of the population, Griffith said. Leggett also presented a grant to Karen Welsh of the Good Shepherd Hu-

mane Society for a grant to educate students to be good stewards of animals. Siddhi Frost of Clear Spring School presented a grant to Dale Hunter of Loaves and Fishes Food Bank for the Operation Food for Hungry Kids weekend food program. The program serves 138 students in the Berryville School district, and packs 95 packs of food a week, Hunter said. The food bank has been approached to extend the program to Green Forest schools and to Berryville School District’s summer school, she said. Pat Kasner of the Flint Street Food Bank accepted a grant for a similar program that serves 45 students in the Eureka Springs School District.

“The teachers tell us they feel so much better knowing these kids are getting food,” Kasner said. Mary Bartell, a YAC member who is home-schooled, announced a grant to Opera in the Ozarks to help buy costumes and props for the annual family opera production that is free to children. Clinton Summers of Berryville High School presented a grant to Brian Watson of Project Self-Esteem, which provides backpacks and school supplies to students. Watson said that a record 600 backpacks have been purchased and will be filled with school supplies in July to be distributed to students next fall.
Samantha Richter presented Cody Qualls, executive director of Mercy Hospital, with a grant for the hospital’s Volunteen Program to cover cost of paint and other supplies for the participants’ annual work week. Through the program, students interested in medical careers get a chance to see what it’s like to work in the different hospital departments. Last year, the teens spent the last week of the program doing odd jobs for elderly residents, including painting, window cleaning and yard work, Qualls said. Richter also presented a grant to Donessa Mann of the Berryville High School music department to buy more risers for the school choir. Mann said the program currently has risers for 45 of the 75 students in the combined junior/senior choirs, making it hard to perform in concert. The Berryville High School Choir is presenting the musical “Guys and Dolls” at 8 p.m. on May 19 and 20 at the Berryville Community Center, and May 22 at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. in the Eureka Springs City Auditorium. Tickers are $10 for adults and $5 for students. The Berryville High School is presenting its Spring Concert May 8 and 9 at the Eureka Springs Auditorium, showcasing the senior high, junior high and show choirs, Mann said. For a community service project, YAC members spent a day cleaning up trash and brush on the Berryville City Park grounds and creek. Working with Joe Scott and park staff, the students removed piles of garbage and tires, YAC advisor George Purvis said. Cornerstone Bank provided hamburgers, which Purvis cooked on the bank’s portable grill, for the awards presentation.

High court puts rush on cases of candidates By Landon Reeves CCNnews@cox-internet.com
LITTLE ROCK – The Arkansas Supreme Court has expedited four cases that will settle the debate whether candidates with administrative-suspended attorney licenses are eligible to run for office. Local candidates Prosecuting Attorney Robert “Tony” Rogers’ and Circuit Court Judge Gerald “Kent” Crow’s eligibility to run in the upcoming election could be affected by the courts’ decisions. In previous stories, Carroll County News reported Rogers’ and Crow’s attorney licenses were briefly suspended for a failure to pay their attorney-license fees before the early March deadline. The suspensions were lifted after they paid the dues plus a fee for being late. Paying the licensing fee late is not anything new for attorneys and judges, but seeking a legal decision on whether this could affect their candidacy in upcoming elections is. Four civil suits that specifically deal with candidate eligibility have been filed, appealed and are now before the state Supreme Court. In three of the four cases, a Civil Court judge previously ruled that the administrative suspension should not bar a
candidate from the election. “The Supreme Court’s decision will be enough to settle this issue and it should be soon,” Crow said. “The interesting thing about this is it will come down to statutory interpretation, and that is where the Supreme Court will have to come in and make an interpretation on the state constitution and the statute. After that, the law will be whatever they say it is.” According to Amendment 80 of the Arkansas Constitution, Circuit Court judges have to be a licensed attorney for six continuous years prior to filling for the election to qualify for candidacy, prosecuting attorneys have to licensed for four years to qualify and state Supreme Court justices have to be licensed for eight years. The Arkansas Supreme Court may soon come to a decision of whether a administrative suspension can disqualify a candidate for these positions, but the question remains whether the Supreme Court is qualified to make a decision on the matter. “The candidates are in good standing, and the issue is whether or not their years of service were continuous due to licenses being suspended due to non-payment of attorney-licensing fees,” said Leslie Steen of the
Supreme Court clerk’s office, who issued the suspensions and who two of the four suits are filed against. All seven justices have paid their license fees late at one point, meaning they all have been under administrative suspension. Two of the justices, Justice Karen Baker and Justice Courtney Hudson Goodson, had the same administrative suspensions within eight years of them being elected to the Supreme Court. Baker was elected in 2010 and suspended in 2003, and Goodson was elected in 2010 and suspended in 2004, according to data from the Supreme Court Clerk’s office. It was reported that Chief Justice Jim Hannah was in the same boat after he was previously elected to an associate justice position when he had a administrative suspension within eight years of his election. However, the change in wording of Amendment 80 of the Arkansas Constitution that would bring his qualifications into question did not take effect until after he was already in office, said Stephanie Harris, communications counsel for the Arkansas Supreme Court. Since the four cases were expedited, three of the seven justices have recused them-
selves from the proceedings. Goodson, Baker and Associate Justice Paul Danielson have filed letters that recuse themselves from all four suits, but their letters did not mention a reason for their recusals. Harris said she was not able to comment on whether the judges deciding if they themselves are qualified to make a ruling on their own qualifications and claims to their positions is a direct conflict of interest. All she could say was if the justices have to recuse themselves from this, then it is likely that Arkansas Governor Mike Beebe will have to appoint special justices to the case. Since the justices recused themselves only one of the four cases, CV-14-358 Valerie Bailey v. Mark Martin, a special justice has been appointed. Judge Raymond Abramson was appointed by Gov. Mike Beebe on Monday, April 28. The other cases before the Supreme Court that are associated with administrative suspension are CV-14-367 John Kelley v. Mark Martin, CV-14-369 Leslie Steen v. Harry G. Foster and CV-14-370 Leslie Steen v. Angela Byrd. For any information on the cases or the standings of said cases visit caseinfo.aoc. arkansas.gov.
Election officials: We’re ready for May 20 primary By Landon Reeves
CCNnews@cox-internet.com
BERRYVILLE – The Carroll County Election Commission met on Monday to test their equipment that will be used in the primary election scheduled for May 20. To test their gear, the commissioners performed a “pretend” election and then erased the results, said Joanna Schuster, election coordinator. The commission first reset the machines and erased all data within them, then ran the mock election and reset the machines once more. After this they sealed the machines and will not open them again until the election, and after they open them they will reset them once more for good measure, said Johnice
Dominick of the commission. The commission tested the 650 Central Tabulation Machine and the iVontronic. The 650 counts and record the ballots and the voters use the iVotronic to caste the ballots. The commission reported that the machines were working fine and are ready to be used on Monday. In other news, the sample ballots for the primary election are ready as well. In the primary, voters can either chose to vote for candidates in the Republican or Democratic parties. Either ballot comes also with the nonpartisan judiciary candidates as well. Early voting begins Monday, May 5. For a complete preview of the May 20 election, read Friday’s edition of Carroll County News.

Should Writing be Organic or Should you Learn Something?
T
here’s the ongoing discussion of whether creative writing, like any art, can be taught. There’s a whole community of thought that says art should be organic and arise from within and not be confined by any structure. Those are the people who also say, “It’s impossible to be published today.” Both of these ideas are just wrong. The suggestions that the New York agent has made on my novel have made it better. He has not changed the core of my characters or their story. But he has shown me how to get to the heart of that story quicker and in a more compelling way, and he has brought my characters into sharper focus. They are more the people that I “organically” envisioned. This makes my book more marketable, which is not a sell- out. When my friend’s agent told her she was shopping her book as a literary novel, my friend said, “I need money.” And the agent said, “You can have both.” You can have a truly beautiful book that’s also a commercial success. You can have your art and eat by it too. But you have to work at it. You have to care enough to get out of your arrogance and admit that maybe you could learn something that could make your story better—”better” being more interesting to readers. “I don’t care about writing a beautiful book,” someone said to me recently. “I just want to write a good story.” Well, your story will be more interesting to readers and more publishable if you present it in a beautiful way. Because what is “beautiful” prose? It’s writing that uses exactly the right word in the right way to transport the reader
to exactly the place you want him to be. It’s writing that rejects half truth, such as “the child was playing in the park” for full truth, such as “Adam Smithee was tossing fistfuls of pebbles onto the slide and watching them rattle to the ground.” (Kevin Brockmeier) This is a skill that can be learned. Actually, what you learn is how to wring it out of yourself. And Pat Carr is just the person to teach you. Pat Carr is the quintessential writer— the one we all wish we were. She’s been published in Best American Short Stories. Yes, Best American Short Stories, the bible we all carried around as undergrads as we dreamed of writing fame. Pat doesn’t do a lot of self-promotion or worry about her “platform.” She’s not even on FaceBook. She doesn’t have to be. Her work speaks for itself. She’s been a finalist for the PEN award, and her stories have been widely published and anthologized. And she has a PhD and has taught at several universities. But she’s not just an “academic with a power point.” She’s a warm, kind person who truly cares about your story, your truth. And she wants to help you shape that story so that readers care about it. Though Pat will be discussing short stories, we need these same skills for longer work. Because with those skills of narrative arc and three-dimensional characters and beautiful, succinct prose, we can make that organic “good story” more compelling. And so, more marketable. If you only take one writing workshop this year, Pat Carr’s should be the one.

Kings River gets a spring cleaning
Photo by Tina Cone
Twenty-three paddlers set out from Marble Access in empty canoes and kayaks last weekend to give the Kings River in Madison County a good spring cleaning. By the time they reached their take-out spot 5 to 6 miles downstream, the canoes were piled high with tires and bulging bags of trash, and even the kayaks were loaded down. Participants gathered cans and plastic bottles along the shore and combed through piles of driftwood for glass bottles, pieces of styrofoam and other foreign objects. Volunteers came from Carroll and Madison counties and from as far away as Fayetteville. The Kings River Watershed Partnership organizes two river clean-ups yearly, one in Madison County in April and a second effort in Carroll County in May. This year’s so-called “MadCou” clean-up netted 40-plus tires and many bags of cans, plastic bottles, tattered shopping bags and other debris. “We always find some surprising stuff,” said Ray Warren, who has led the cleanup efforts for many years. “This time, we got most of a double plastic utility sink with some of the plumbing attached, and a big spiral piece of metal pipe. No one can figure out what it came from. There was quite a bit of household type trash, too.” He explained that often, property owners create trash piles far from the river, but those dump sites can spread during rain events, with debris being carried along ditches and into creeks that then wash it into the river. One paddler found a paint can more than half full of wood preservative. The KRWP wishes to thank the private landowners who allowed the group to use their river frontage as the take-out point, and Madison County Solid Waste and Recycling Center for safely disposing of the waste that was collected. A big thank you also goes to all the kayakers and canoeists who contributed to the successful effort. The Carroll County portion of the yearly cleanup will take place May 31.

The Natural Way How supplements are saving K.C.
K
.C., the cat, is 18 almost 19 years old and is my best friend. Recently, she was Jim Fain struggling with old age and staying alive. Our home was in a loving turmoil. She and us were fighting to beat the odds (along with the veterinarian). Her spirit was very strong as was/is her love for us. Her body just wasn’t keeping up. Life can be cruel in its wondrousness. Still, it is a beautiful thing, almost 19 years with her has been a blessing beyond expectation. This was a week before my birthday in late March. We expected there would be no celebration, and were braced for a huge loss. Here is a little about the energy she adds to my home. K.C. (aka The Kayster) rules the house, though in her grand style she allows us to think we do. She adopted me when she was a few weeks old being weaned from her mother too young. She set the tone early in life finding an adeptness at training her human. She has this oh-so-appealing look on her face communicating when she is happy or wants something and a very unhappy continuous meow when something is wrong in her house. Despite what we humans may think she does keep track of the other two cats and misses Samantha the dog who passed away last year. After all this is her domain and all of us are her subjects. I’m her primary caregiver, being sure she gets her one brand of one flavor pate’ of food twice each day in a timely manner. Just to be sure I’m kept on my toes it’s probable she will instantly change her mind and never touch that type of food again. A few days past my birthday we saw a change. I’m happy beyond belief to report that my old friend K.C. is slowly improving. Small but sure improvements. She is eating low protein, was getting hydrated three times per week, drinking daily, sitting up without falling over and able to step two or three times. She can’t take prescribed pain management any more so I’ve made for her liquid MSM (she gets 500mg twice/day) via dropper, fish oil 2000iu/day and taurine each day as an anti-inflammatory (arthritis) and for muscle health. She also has AdvaCal (bone building) calcium for osteoporosis put into her food daily. One month later, she is able to walk better and occasionally even climbs the stairs by herself. Many human supplements can be used successfully in both cats and dogs. Eureka Springs has great animal hospitals and good vet care is important. Support from the family, good home nursing and physical therapy are all critical factors. We helped her stand up by lifting her hind quarters and stabilized her by holding her tail and urged her on. And we had to brush clumped litter off of her, daily. So, as it turned out, I did have a great birthday celebration.
Wisecrack Zodiac Aries: You’re suspicious of good fortune without consequences. When the universe gives you a cookie this week, ask it to kick you in the shins, too, so you won’t be surprised later. Taurus: Feel free to ignore the naysayers on Friday. You’re living in your own little world, but at least you have wi-fi and mail delivery there. Gemini: Some people will be stunned to know you have a shell, let alone hide in it. Ignore them. Even social butterflies need a cocoon now and then, if only to host awesome house parties. Cancer: Most people poke dragons with sharp sticks, but you have style. Go ahead, play Justin Bieber music at the dragon’s lair until he toasts you like a marshmallow at a Cub Scout campout. At least you’ll have a tan and a story. Leo: You’ve been so busy lately, you haven’t had any spare time to think about how marvelous you truly are. Go ahead, take an evening for yourself with some candlelight, a bottle of wine and a mirror. Virgo: On Tuesday, you’re like an Etch-A-Sketch shaken by a toddler. You know you’re capable of great art, but everything seems fuzzy and a little sticky at the moment. Libra: Some are born to greatness, others have it thrust upon them. You just nicked it out of a recycling bin and dusted it off a bit. Go ahead, wear it; turns out greatness flatters those wide hips. Scorpio: You can hand over your heart, wallet and self-respect, but nothing warms up your sweetie like being nice to their family. Go ahead, you can do it, even if it requires industrial-grade meds and a Buick-sized margarita.

his week of entertainment kicks off tonight, Thursday, May 1, with a special event at Chelsea’s Corner Cafe & Bar as the establishment celebrates its 25th birthday. Ratliff Dean Thiebaud and Friends will perform at the party, which begins at 5 p.m. Thiebaud, of Mountain Sprout, will be playing with Sprout bassist Daniel Redmond, steel guitarist Ron Landis, drummer Sage Ahava and acoustic “bad-ass” Mike Hopper from Tulsa, who formerly played with the likes of Steve Pryor and Wink Burcham. There will be no cover for the big party, and it’s open to all ages since the bar has gone non-smoking and opened its big new two-level patio. Chelsea’s is located at 10 Mountain St., 479-253-6723.
FRIDAY On Friday, you should head on over to Cathouse Lounge / Pied Piper Pub for their May Fine Arts kick-off party, with live music inside and outside in the Beer Garden. The show outside will be a special treat for us, as we don’t get to hear good DJs in our neck of the woods that often. It’ll feature three DJ sets by Allen Burnet, Shane Capps and Daniel Jackson, and a performance by the Violetta Lotus Burlesque Girls, from 8 p.m. to midnight. There is no cover and it’s open to ages 21 and up. Cathouse / Pied Piper is located at 82 Armstrong St., at the north end of Main. 479-363-9976. SATURDAY On Saturday at Chelsea’s, 2012 Waka
LARGEST SELECTION OF
VINTAGE WINES
Tickle Me Tuesdays!
Winter Classic winner Cadillac Jackson of Fayetteville brings its own brand of party funk to town. Cadillac Jackson would best be described as a funk band that taps into rock, pop, hip-hop, reggae, dance, and even bluegrass genres to create a truly unique stew. Cadillac Jackson was formed in the summer of 2009 and played one of its first gigs at River Jam Fest in Fort Smith alongside national touring acts Big Gigantic, EOTO, Papa Mali, Papadosio, Ivan Neville’s Dumpstaphunk, and others. Cadillac Jackson cites a plethora of influences including Umphreys McGee, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Dr. Dre, Dave Matthews Band, The Roots and many more for inspiring their sound. Most shows last over three hours, and feature mostly original songs, as well as a heavy dose of improvisation, and familiar mashed-up cover songs. Don’t be surprised if they break into a cover of Tupac, too. Tons of fun! Cadillac Jackson goes on stage around 9 p.m.; admission is $5 and it’s open to all ages.

Ozarks Chorale prepares for Spring Singfest May 10 The Ozarks Chorale members, made up of singers from Eureka Springs and the Ozarks region, are wrapping up rehearsals for their upcoming Spring Singfest Concert to be held on Saturday, May 10 at 7:30 p.m. in The Auditorium in downtown Eureka Springs. Thriving in the Ozarks for more than 19 years, their harmonious sounds ring out the sheer joy these dedicated singers have for their craft. “This has been a very exciting year for the Chorale on many levels,” said Beth Withey, artistic director and conductor of the Ozarks Chorale. “We’ve developed an internship program, reached out to our community with an education initiative called The Hallelujah Chorus Community Sing, performed the debut of the piece ‘Eureka Springs,’ by Eureka’s own composer, Thoro Harris, in conjunction with the Eureka Springs Historical Museum, and recently performed for the filming of a documentary about
beloved Ozark writer, Donald Harington.” To top off this already busy season, the Ozarks Chorale’s Spring Concert will be inspired by Bach, Brahms, Beethoven, and Broadway, with a little something for everyone in the spring show. “We’re presenting a really great grouping of pieces from the American Heritage Choral tradition,” said Withey. “Pieces like ‘Every time I Feel the Spirit’ and ‘Go Down Moses,’ as well as pieces that we’re singing just for pleasure like ‘Ashokan Farewell’ — familiar to many from the Ken Burns documentaries.” The public is invited to attend the Ozarks Chorale’s Spring Singfest on Saturday, May 10. Tickets will be available at the door and are $10 for adults. Student tickets are always free to all Ozark Chorale concerts. Refreshments will be available with proceeds from the snacks donated to a local charity. For more information, visit www. theozarkschorale.org.
Chappell
Chappell is also a digital artist, graphic designer and photographer who worked in fashion photography for three years, and most of the graphics and video on the site are his. In a recent post on his Facebook page, he wrote, “I feel inspired. I’m doing what I’ve been trying to do since I made the move [to L.A.]. ... I’m employed doing something I’m extremely passionate about, working with amazing people on a boot camp of 7 web pilots, that I’m extremely, profoundly proud of, making enough to survive, take an acting class with one of my favorite people in the world, am creatively challenged every step of the way, and be social (at least as social as my predisposed introversion allows).” But he hasn’t forgotten where where he came from. “Growing up in Northwest Arkansas gave me a different perspective than a lot of people have out here, and I’m really thankful for that,” he said.

book for filmmakers. There are actors, writers, directors, crew members – all the people you need to make a film – on the site. It’s been around since November 2012, and we’re trying to grow it.” The first season received 800 scripts and 27,000 actors nationwide answering a casting call. Seven shows were produced, with plans to use them as pilots for their own series. Episodes were shot all over the country. The company is looking at doing Season 2. “The film industry has been located in L.A. and New York, but it doesn’t have to be,” Chappell said. “Things are changing. A hundred hours of video content are uploaded to YouTube every minute. People are wanting to be seen and heard and have their outlet now.” He says his role is “a little bit of everything.”

as good, and in some instances better, than that received in larger facilities. First, there are doctors on site 24/7. After being admitted to the Emergency Room, the only waiting period I experienced was while the results of the lab tests were obtained and interpreted, necessary of course, for the doctors/nurses to make an informed decision about the nature of the problem and how to treat it. The only time there was a longer waiting period was when an accident victim was admitted, and even then, nurses checked me several times to be sure I was all right while they attended to the accident victim. Second, it is true that our hospital is small and not a full-care facility, nor do they make any pretensions that they are. We should be thankful that (a) the care they do give is outstanding, and (b) that it recognizes Eureka is close enough to larger hospitals that are equipped to provide necessary and more complicated services to patients who need them, and © that patients can be transported quickly via helicopter to the facilities best-equipped to handle the problem at hand. These patients are transferred because our hospital is not equipped to handle some medical situations, is wise enough to know the truth of this, and to insure that the patient(s) are transferred immediately to hospitals that can. Third, level of care. During hospital stays at larger hospitals in metropolitan areas, while their care was excellent, I never received the quality of care provided by the nurses at the Eureka Springs Hospital, partly because this is a small hospital and the nurses, having fewer patients to care for, are able to provide it. They remembered, after on request, that I preferred boiling hot tea to coffee and often, at night or in the afternoon, asked if I’d like some; when I hadn’t been able to eat the regular food, they went out of their way to ask what I’d like then see that I got an alternative meal; knowing I was often chilly at night, a warmed blanket was brought each night without my asking; when unable to sleep, tea, juice, water, aspirin were offered, and the nurses followed up to see if I was feeling better while straightening sheets and blankets
25
and fluffing pillows. Of course larger hospitals are able to offer these services but can’t/don’t simply because there are many more patients to care for and there isn’t time for the extras that do so much to speed a patient’s healing. Nor can the nurses here be accused of being less than professional. Those in larger hospitals provide what’s needed crisply and efficiently, and while that is not in any way bad, the gentle, more personal way of the nurses at the Eureka Springs Hospital says, at least to me, that these are dedicated individuals who are caring enough to go out of their way over and over again to be sure the patients are getting the best of care. And always with a smile. They, too, can move quickly and efficiently if an emergency arises. Within the last two years, our hospital received a high rating as a trauma center, a rating that would not be given if the services available were not up to standard, which speaks also to the level of care available here and the speed with which it is provided. Whoever chose the hospital’s motto, “The hospital with a heart”, know what they were talking about, as do I, a patient there more than once. I will bow to no one when discussing the quality care our hospital provides and am thankful every day that the hospital and its staff are here when we need them. M.C. Bucholtz
Concerned about gardens in town I enjoy living in Eureka Springs and seeing all the beauty the town has to offer. However, the once-colorful and eye-catching gardens now seem abandoned and overgrown with weeds. I know these gardens — which are in areas around the springs in town and at the intersection of Highway 62 and Main Street — in past years were well-manicured, colorful, and resembled something out of a magazine. So, I ask why have these gardens been abandoned this spring? It makes a poor impression on our great town. What happened to the man who took care of them in the past? Hopefully he returns soon. – John Newman

The Rotary Club’s District 6110 Medical Supplies Network was preparing to head to the destruction site this week “to assist with efforts to rebuild lives after the immediate crisis is over,” said a Rotary Club email. “I encourage you to assist with relief as you are able in order to help those
affected by these unfortunate events through whatever organization you are most comfortable,” wrote Rotary District Governor Ken Colley. “If you wish to be a part of Rotary’s efforts, I encourage you to make your tax-deductible gift to the Medical Supplies Network, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization; please designate your gift for District 6110 Disaster Relief.” Donations may be sent to Medical Supplies Network Inc., 1123 S.

Wednesday, May 7, which is Tourism Day in Arkansas, will be hosted by the Greater Eureka Springs Chamber of Commerce at the Village at Pine Mountain in front of the chamber offices. Local attractions will be on hand with information, schedules, etc., to share with attendees to better help their guests. Grilled burgers and hot dogs will be provided by Arvest Bank, Community First Bank, and Cornerstone Bank beginning at 11 a.m. The mayor will present the Tourism Day Proclamation and then a large group photo, similar to the one above taken last year, will begin setting up at 1 p.m., and the shoot will take place no later than 2 p.m. To help showcase this year’s “Eureka Springs Faces of Tourism” portrait, the chamber asks that attendees come in their tourism-related attire (and bring props from your attractions, businesses or tourism activities if applicable). Anyone who does not have specific tourism attire should wear a red shirt. Call the Chamber at 479-253-8737 for more information.
