WB bar’s bike donation drive breaks 100 By Terry Lane Staff Writer

Inspired by a childhood story from a friend, one local business owner last week saw a simple plea on Facebook grow into a demonstration of the generosity and Christmas spirit of Wrightsville Beach. While the Toys for Tots box in Jimmy’s at Red Dogs had gotten a few bookbags and other items, the bar’s co-owner Jimmy Gilleece wanted to boost donations to the local charitable effort. So Gilleece bought a child’s size bike and put it in the box, posting on Facebook and Instagram on Dec. 4 that he would match up to 10 bike donations. “In my wildest dreams, I thought we would get 20 bikes,” said Gilleece, adding that the bar would accept bike donations through Saturday, Dec. 16. As of Tuesday afternoon, more than 100 bikes of all shapes and sizes crowded the bar, completely covering the dance floor and spilling into the narrow buildings walkways.

Board to review Poe’s parking, add new member at meeting By Terry Lane Staff Writer

At the Thursday, Dec. 14 Wrightsville Beach Board of Aldermen meeting, the town will again consider whether to grant a permit for the owners of Poe’s Tavern to demolish the neighboring Middle of the Island building to expand parking for the restaurant. However, this time the discussion will feature a new member of the board, as newly-elected alderman Ken Dull will be sworn in for his first meeting. Mayor Bill Blair and alderman Hank Mill, both of whom were reelected, will also be sworn in. During the Nov. 9 meeting, the board of aldermen aldermen postponed a decision on whether to grant the restaurant at 212 Causeway Dr. the conditional use permit after an attorney representing the owners raised objections to the number of parking spots Poe’s Tavern would have to provide. While the expanded parking would give Poe’s approximately 57 parking spaces on site, the attorney said that the lot was not going to be part of the restaurant’s lot, and it could be sold for another commercial purpose in the future. If the lot were no longer to be owned by Poe’s Tavern, the owners don’t want to have meet a parking requirement of more than 50 n See BOA Page 2

Crews repair sewer leak, tests show minimal contamination By Terry Lane Staff Writer

Keaton Cline, co-owner of Jimmy’s at Red Dogs, shows off dozens of bikes the bar has collected as part of a Toys for Tots toy drive. The owners have already collected more than 100 and expect as many as 150 to come in.

Gilleece started the bike drive after hearing a story from a friend from a disadvantaged background who received a donated bike for Christmas. “He said that when he was a kid, it was amazing to get a bike for Christmas,” Gilleece said. “It

gave him a chance to escape reality. When things got bad, he could just get on his bike and ride away. It was a way to escape.” Keaton Cline, the bar’s other co-owner, said it didn’t take long to discover that the Wrightsville Beach community was heeding

the call for bike donations. “We knew something special was happening on the second day after the post, when we had 43 bikes come in,” Cline said. “It means a lot to us, that they would donate their time and money

Wrightsville Beach public works staff said a quick response on Sunday, Dec. 10 helped crews stop and repair a sewage pipe break that led to 75,000 gallons of untreated sewage was spilled into the Intracoastal Waterway on Saturday night. Crews were able to have the broken segment of the Northeast Interceptor sewer line replaced by Sunday evening, Wrightsville Beach Public Works Director Williams Squires said. And testing of water of nine sites near the Wrightsville Beach boat ramp on Monday showed only one had elevated levels of bacteria, Squires said. “One sample was elevated, but the rest were below acceptable levels on the first tests on Monday. With the tide cycles, Tuesday’s tests should show everything back to normal,” Squires said. “We’ll test every day until the results are acceptable.” Crews discovered a hole approximately the size of a fist in the Northeast Interceptor sewer line that runs under the Intracoastal Waterway. Squires said that the failure in the sewer main was in a segment east of the waterway that is under approximately eight feet of earth, which caused a wastewater build up that overflowed and n See SEWAGE Page 2

Residents, businesses get ready for holiday decorating contest by Jana Mackin Contributing Writer

A live oak with a nose job has sent neighbors all a twitter about the festive entrant in this year’s Wrightsville Beach holiday decorating contest. This unusual oak belongs in the front lawn of the Bendjy family, who have joyously festooned their Christmas tree. They join local residences and businesses throughout Wrightsville Beach in the town’s fifth annual decorating contest, which will be judged Tuesday,

Dec. 19. What were once beach bungalows and hang-ten houses have transformed into Currier and Ives postcards of cherry-cheeked Santas, jingle-bell sleighs and, of course, reindeer. “That’s Rudolph,” said Bailey Bendjy, 7. She points out the family tree decorated as part of their holiday traditions. Each year, they strategically place a red ball on the tree, drape it with festive lights. Then presto-chango: Rudolph, the red nose reindeer. n See LIGHTS Page 2

With a boost from Wrightsville Beach Ocean Rescue, the town’s fire department added more than a dozen new volunteers last week, which along with the promotion of five other firefighters, will make the town’s fire response more “robust and resilient,” the fire chief said this week. Of the 12 new volunteer firefighter recruits and four volunteers hired with prior firefighting certification, seven are joining after working as a Wrightsville Beach lifeguard, Wrightsville Beach Fire Chief Glen Rogers said. “What we’re trying to do here is create a department that is welcoming to volunteers,” Rogers said, adding that volunteer recruitment is difficult in vacation communities like Wrightsville Beach, which have a high housing costs and a large number of visiting and temporary residents. Among the promotions, Jeff Williams was promoted to captain, filling the position held by n See FIREFIGHTERS Page 2

“He pulls the sleigh,” she said. “He lights the way.” Lighting up the island is the goal of this holiday contest now in its fifth year. The contest promotes community wide holiday joy, light and beauty in this judged event. Any Wrightsville Beach residence or business is eligible to participate with prizes awarded in such categories as Most Holiday Spirit, Best Holiday Lighting, Most Creative, Most Traditional, Best Overall Residence and Best Overall Business with a Dec. 19 noon deadline for registration. Each year, some 20 entrants participate in this event sponsored by Harbor Island Garden Club, the Wrightsville Beach Parks & Recreation Advisory Committee and the Wrightsville Beach Parks & Recreation Department. The more the merrier, officials said. “You’re going to decorate anyway,” said Katie Ryan, recreation program supervisor for Wrightsville Beach Parks and Recreation. “Why not enter for a chance to win a basket of goodies, trophy and bragging rights?” For two years, Brandon Wicklund, bartender, has transformed the King Neptune Restaurant into an illuminate plum pudding par excellence with a distinct beach vibe.

“I wanted to bring lights to the town and the Christmas spirit,” he said. “Otherwise, they would have sat in my garage.” This year features more than 20,000 Christmas lights inside and out. Inside is a Winter Wonderland theme with two areas designed for photo spots. Five new inflatables have been added including a fish taco truck in honor of the restaurant’s taco Tuesdays, Wicklund said, who has helped Sweetwater Surf Shop and Vito’s Pizzeria get lights on their building, as well as helping hang the wreath on Jimmy’s at Red Dogs. He also started hashtag #LightUpLumina to fuel the Christmas buzz. “The hashtag #LightUpLumina is something I created to catch people’s attention about Wrightsville Beach and get them involved,” he said. “We want this to be a display that everyone will enjoy. We want to bring our community together whether it’s Christmas lights or people helping each other out,” Wicklund said. “The draw isn’t really about the contest. It is about our community coming together strong and spreading joy and smiles to the people that support our businesses. This year #LightUpLumina truly looks like a Hallmark staple when you are walking the street and it’s all because we supported each other this year.”

during the holiday season. It’s just so cool.” The donations are part of the sixth annual Toys for Tots drive organized by local band L-Shaped Lot, which culminates on Saturday with a concert Saturday night at 6:30 p.m. at the Brooklyn Arts Center in Wilmington. A founding member of the band that gets its name from the nickname for Wrightsville Beach Access No. 4 parking lot, Eric Miller said the bikes raised at Jimmy’s at Red Dogs this year far exceeds the number of bikes last year’s fundraiser brought in. While last year’s toy drive brought in more than 10,000 toys, it included less than 50 bikes, a number already doubled by Gilleece and Cline. The sheer size of the donation raised some logistical concerns with Miller. “I was worried about what to do with these bikes, and called Jimmy. He asked if I was stressed out and told me not to stress,” Miller said. Indeed, other businesses have offered their help. In addition to several local business owners coming in with their own bike donations, Jon Tone, sales manager for Two Men and a Truck, will donate time, manpower and a truck to move the bikes on Sunday, where they will be transported to the warehouse in Murraysville where the Toys for Tots distributions will occur. The bike donations have come in from all parts of the country, all ages and all professions. One bike was sent from a former patron who now lives in California. The Wrightsville Beach Police Department also donated a pair of bikes from their benevolent fund. Cpl. Gunnar Matthews, who administers the fund, said that the fund already supports a needy

family at Christmas, so adding a bike donation fit with the mission. Officer Sten Taube, who along with Matthews delivered the bike on Tuesday, said that giving the bikes reminded him of getting bikes for Christmas when he was a kid. “It’s the best thing you can get a kid. Every little kid should have a chance to get a bike,” Taube said. And a few local children have also gotten into the spirit, using their own money to buy bikes. “Giving is the best give you can get,” said Warren Goodwin, 10, who along with his sister Abigail, used his own money to buy a bike for the drive. “It feels better to give than to get,” 11-year-old Abigail Goodwin added. Their father Sheldon Goodwin, a manager at nearby Sweetwater Surf Shop, said that the kids got a thrill out of seeing how many bikes had been donated, noting that it wasn’t a surprise that Gilleece’s and Cline’s bike drive was drawing so much attention. “They’re always doing something to give back, people around here have been very happy with the local response,” Goodwin

Nabell and Steve Williams. Nabel, a 24-year-old East Carolina University graduate, has worked as a Wrightsville Beach lifeguard for two years, said he was drawn to fire service after his family lost their house in a structure fire last year. “It was a major incident in my life and I saw how much damage it did to us,” Nabel said. He added that while fighting fires was one of his motivations, he was also inspired by the camaraderie in the department: “I just love being around all of them, it’s a great department.” Fish, another new volunteer recruit that came from the town’s ocean rescue team, said that she was attracted to the opportunity after hearing emergency calls over the lifeguards’ dispatch system.

“All summer I would listen as my friends got dispatched to fire and medical calls. This allows me to be part of the calls now,” said Fish, a former Wingate University swimmer who served her first summer on the ocean rescue team. Fish, who is looking for medical experience as she attends nursing school Cape Fear Community College said the training was challenging, especially with the added weight the heavy equipment brings. “It’s a lot harder with 50 pounds of gear. It’s claustrophobic,” she said. “It’sa lot different when you can cool off in the ocean. There’s no cooling off in the turnout gear.” Rogers credit Scull for the recruitment efforts, noting that he went to University of North Carolina Wilmington and other

areas to find young people who lived in or near Wrightsville Beach. “He took a mutlitier approach to keeping the vitality of the volunteer force,” Rogers said. “He really came through for the town. He connects well with younger people, finds out what motivates them to be a volunteer and communicates with them on their level.” With the added volunteers, Rogers said the department should be able to secure a force of 12 firefighters able to quickly respond to fire calls. “With the height of the building, how close they are to each other, and the constant wind all the time, if we do get a fire, we have to react quickly to contain that one house,” Rogers said.

where two excavator bucket teeth would be,” Squires said. Town staff reported the spill to the North Carolina Division of Environmental Quality. Squires said the town received crucial assistance from other agencies and departments to quickly fix the pipe. Since the pipe was an odd size, crews were able to get a replace from the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority on Sunday, while contract T.A. Loving was also quick to respond, he said. The Wrightsville Beach Board of Aldermen has been exploring the costs of building a redundant sewer line under the Intracoastal Waterway and a recent engineering report to the board showed that the

line could cost as much as $2 million. The town pumps nearly 1.7 million gallons of raw sewage each day off of the island, the engineering report said. That report also showed that the sewer line was in some places just inches below the bed of the waterway. The town contracted the study in response to a proposal to expand the dock facilities at Grand View Apartments across from the town’s boat ramp, as town leaders said a mistake in construction, or damage from a boat or anchor, could rupture the line in a way that’s difficult to fix, potentially leading to a large spill.

said of the bike drive. Jimmy’s at Red Dogs isn’t the only local establishment collecting toys for Toys for Tots, a program organized by the U.S. Marine Corps Reserve. Next door at King Neptune, bartender Brandon Wicklund is also organizing a toy collection drive. Instead of returning an empty box this year, Wicklund said the restaurant promoted the drive more effectively this year and

spilled into the waterway. The spill was reported at 11:54 p.m. Crews shut the valves to the sewer main and trucks used in a “pump-and-haul” operation to transport sewage from the town’s lift stations to treatment stations on the mainland. Squires said that an initial assessment of the damage showed that the pipe may have been damaged when installed in 1983. Though not ruptured when installed, the damage could have caused the protective coating to fail, he said. “The pipe had two holes in it, about the size of a fist, almost like

Neighborhood Realtors Help Local Non-Profit Fight Hunger During Holiday Season Over 20 Cape Fear Realtors members, staff, and partners unloaded 8,000 pounds of nonperishable food this morning at Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard. The event was the culmination of the annual, year-long Feed ILM campaign during which Realtors collected money and food donations to benefit the local food pantry. This morning’s delivery included several pallets of oats, beans, pasta, cereal, and soups, as well as 24 much needed chairs for Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard. In total, Cape Fear Realtors efforts brought in

over $7,000 worth of food and supplies, an increase from the previous year. Taylor Oldroyd, CEO of Cape Fear Realtors reaffirmed the organization’s ongoing commitment to community service. “We thank everyone involved who volunteered time and donated money to Feed ILM. Realtors are in a unique position to affect change for the good of our community, and this successful program is an example of how we intend to keep doing just that.” Mother Hubbard’s Cupboard feeds over 3,000 people each

month in the Wilmington area through the distribution of emergency food. Their services are provided completely by volunteer partnerships, without regard to race or religion and with care to preserve the dignity of the individuals being served. “Realtors did great! Especially in this time of year, when there are a lot of people in need, we’re often short on food items, and this [delivery] helps tremendously. On behalf of the board we thank you so so much,” said Barney Richards, secretary of Mother Hubbard Cupboard’s Board of Directors.

The past week has not been all that great for the majority of outdoor related activities, but especially fishing, as far as weather goes. Several days of rain last week brought over two inches of precipitation to the area, then followed by cold temperatures and now lots of winds, it doesn’t help the cause for those who want to venture out and wet a line. In addition to the weather having an impact on the water activities, over the weekend, a broken sewer line next to the Wrightsville Beach boat ramp, spilled 75,000 gallons of raw sewage into the waterway. This will no doubt have some sort of impact on the local areas fishing and more, and not just near and around the boat ramp, but probably towards the inlets to our south and north as well. What impact it has on the areas shellfish harvest we’ll have to wait and see and obviously you’ll want to stay out of the water until conditions permit. As far as the fishing goes, the speckled trout fishing has been hit or miss, with anglers that are able to find the larger fish having good limits in a short amount of time while others who manage to find the smaller spikes are having a difficult time culling through to find some keepers. Soft baits such as Gulp and DOAs are working well as are Mirrolures in varying colors. As the waters continue to cool, which are now reading in the upper fifties, some of the larger trout will be found around the inlets and especially the Masonboro Inlet Jetties. Anglers have also reported catching some decent sized fish

from the surf areas of Topsail and Surf City. Some red drum are still being found around the docks and in the creeks and can be fooled on both soft artificial baits and fresh cut bait soaked on the bottom. Anglers fishing these areas are also finding a few decent sized black drum. Surf anglers fishing for Virginia mullet are having good success on fresh shrimp fished in the sloughs and deeper holes during the times of the falling tide. Those anglers lucky enough to find sand fleas are having the better luck with the larger fish, with some reports of fish up to two pounds being caught. A few black drum are also being reported coming from the mullet fishermen. Offshore has almost been nonexistent the past week due to the weather. Wahoo and blackfin tuna should be waiting in the blue water once anglers can get back out to them. King mackerel were being found in the fifteen mile range but have likely moved out a few more miles or more since the last front came through. Bottom fishing around twenty miles was good for black bass and grunts, with snapper and grouper being reported in the thirty miles range. Those anglers targeting bluefin tuna have had some early luck close to the beaches but the fishing has also been impacted by the seas. Once conditions allow, expect to see lots of reports of tuna being caught from close to the hill and inlets as more anglers attempt to wrestle one of these fish.
