Mega yacht attracting attention in downtown Wilmington By Simon Gonzalez Staff Writer

When the Island Heiress cruised up the Cape Fear River and docked in Wilmington last fall, the stay was supposed to be brief. Yet the 145-foot luxury motor yacht remains on the outside dock at Port City Marina, and the large vessel has become an unofficial tourist attraction in the northern end of downtown. “She is a magnificent boat,” said John Gaffley, one of Island Heiress’s two captains. Classified as a mega or super yacht, the tri-deck craft’s onboard features include a 30-foot inflatable water slide, a Jacuzzi tub, and four WaveRunners. There are accommodations for 12 guests in six staterooms, and space for 10 crewmembers. The Island Heiress was built by Cheoy Lee Yachts in 1996 and refitted in 2014 and 2015 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Replacement value is $25 million, yatco.com estimates. Owner Robert Hansen originally brought the boat to Wilmington in November 2015, to celebrate the birthday of his daughter, a student at the University of North Carolina n See YACHT Page 5

Wrightsville Beach will again be at the center of the growing sport of standup paddleboard racing this weekend when it hosts the sixth-annual West Marine Carolina Cup, bringing in an expected 800 paddlers to compete in the largest race of its kind in the country. The cup will again feature three standup paddleboard races that draws competitors of all levels from around the world, while adding a race for increasingly popular outrigger canoe. “The Carolina Cup has become famous for not only attracting the Travis Grants, Danny Chings, and Annabel Andersons of the world,” said Australian Christopher Parker, paddleboard expert and race analyst with SUPRacer, “but also for drawing hundreds of weekend warriors and first-timers from near and far. The Carolina Cup is not just a race, it’s a festival.” The cup includes the 3.5-mile Harbor Island race, the 6-mile Money

Wrightsville Beach’s water and sewer budget is $500,000 over what the town can afford, and town leaders are in favor of increasing residents’ rates instead of dipping into the town’s reserve fund. “We would be foolish to not have some kind of increase,” Mayor Bill Blair said, although he requested town staff carefully calculate how small the increase could be while still covering costs. “We don’t want to kill the residents,” he added. The board of aldermen met with town staff April 19 for one of Wrightsville Beach’s final workshops aimed at balancing the 2016-17 budget. The aldermen only needed to make up a difference of a few thousand dollars to balance the general budget, but balancing the water

On April 21, the shop’s owner, Audrey Longtin, will open the doors to customers, culminating a two-year journey that led her here from her hometown of Montreal. Longtin’s business, The Workshop, will sell sharks’ tooth jewelry and gourmet coffee, combining two of her passions — one newly discovered and one from her roots. The edible side of the business was inspired by her French-Canadian upbringing. Her mom owns a restaurant, she said, so she grew up around that industry. Longtin’s menu reflects her hometown, too. She’ll offer frappes, cappuccinos, sandwiches and pastries.

Wilmington urges state legislature to repeal HB2 By Terry Lane Staff Writer

In front of a boisterous full chamber, the Wilmington City Council on Tuesday unanimously approved a resolution urging the North Carolina General Assembly to repeal its House Bill 2, the controversial law passed in March that has outraged advocates for gay, lesbian and transgender issues. After hearing from a handful of speakers, the council passed the resolution on a 6-0 vote, which said that “House Bill 2 does not allow for the full inclusion and dignity of all of our residents.” And though H.B. 2 has been mostly associated with bathroom use by transgendered people,

both the speakers and the council’s resolution addressed a range of concerns with the legislation, which also broadly changed the state’s civil rights laws and even blocked cities from raising the minimum wage. The city’s resolution said that H.B. 2 intrudes on local authority in several ways, while also uniquely hurting the region’s economy, as it noted that Wilmington needed the hightech skilled workers that make up the businesses of the future. The resolution wasn’t on the council’s agenda, but a widely circulated Facebook group indicated that a group of more than 200 had committed to come, and Mayor Bill Saffo

Cross-government affordable housing task force sparks budget debate By Terry Lane Staff Writer

As housing costs continue to draw concerns across New Hanover County, the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners and the Wilmington City Council formed a cross-government committee this week to study the issue, though not before drawing a contrast on the approach between board members. While commissioner Woody White said he wanted the ability to vote on any funding that a study on affordable housing may require, commissioner Jonathan Barfield Jr. said not appropriating money showed that the county wasn’t taking leadership on the issue. The Wilmington City Council quickly approved the measure to create the task force on Tuesday, April 19 after the county’s board of commissioners had spent more time on debate to pass it on Monday, April 18. The city had already approved a similar resolution in January, which was further altered by the county staff and board. The action creates a 14-member, six-month task force that will study housing affordability, and originally authorized the county and city to each spend up to $20,000 to fund studies on the best practices across the country, before returning to the county and city with recommendations. However, the county’s resolution requires that any spending be first approved by its board.

White expressed concerns about the $20,000 in spending, saying it shouldn’t be used on studies that relied on government support as a policy proposal. “If it was a study on ordinance revisions or zoning as it relates to density and affordable housing, I would probably support that,” White said. “If it was a study on a model for low-interest loans and government subsidy from local governments, I wouldn’t support that. I would like to have the vote to know what we’re spending on.” But Barfield said the county’s reluctance to fund the task force showed that it wasn’t addressing the issue as forcefully as the city, noting that a recent meeting was titled the “mayor’s roundtable” on affordable housing. “They are taking a very strong stance. If we are going to be an equal player, we can’t tie our county manager’s hand and not fully participate,” said Barfield, who was the only commissioner to vote against the resolution. “We have an issue that we as local officials needed to address 10 years ago, not just today.” The county also added specific representation on the task force from homebuilders, upon the request of commissioner Skip Watkins. The task force will include members from the banking, real estate, private development, homebuilders, workforce housing and community nonprofits, as well as a representative of the Cape Fear Housing Coalition and at-large members appointed by each the city and county. email terrylane@luminanews.com

The New Hanover County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved on April 18 funding for the first step toward major infrastructure improvements along the U.S. 421 corridor designed to bring more business and industry to the region. The board voted to spend $2.1 million for design, permitting and right-of-way acquisition for the project, which could be funded through a state grant from the recently passed ConnectNC bond, through a loan or through

the county’s general revenue fund. Commissioner Woody White, a member of the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority board, said the organization will apply for $15.5 million in loan and grant money from the state that can be used to fund the project. The $16.7 million would extend the utility’s water and sewer delivery to the area north of Wilmington where Interstate 140 meets U.S. 421. “It’s an important step for new companies that want to come to New Hanover County and it’s an important step for job creation,” said Scott Satterfield, o f Wi l m i n g t o n B u s i n e s s Development. “I can’t think of anything more important than to have those utilities in place.” Members of the board noted that extending utility service to the

area has been a goal of the county for more than 20 years. In other commission news:

County surprises telecommunicator with award

When Leslie Hennessee attended the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners meeting on April 18, the telecommunicator for the county’s 911 system thought she would be talking about the call center’s computer system. Instead, she was surprised to learn she was there to receive the Mary Atley Telecommunicator of the Year award. Hennessee, who has been with New Hanover County Emergency Communications for four years, was recognized for her quick

thinking during a call last summer. County manager Chris Coudriet said that during a call with a trainee, she recognized that the caller wanted to say more but couldn’t. However, Coudriet said that Hennessee was able to get the caller the help she needed. “In those few minutes, this telecommunicator made an amazing difference in people’s lives,” Coudriet said. Hennessee, who told the board members that she was from a public safety family, said she was humbled to receive the award. “I’m fortunate to go to a job every day that I absolutely love,” she said. “Four years afterward, it still feels like the first day I stepped into this job.” email terrylane@lumiannews.com

Wrightsville Beach marketing looking at both in-state, out-of-state campaigns By McCall Reeder Intern

As the Wrightsville Beach Marketing Advisory Committee continues to evaluate its marketing strategy for the fall and 2017, consultants urged the members to consider creating campaigns that can be targeted to reach both instate and out-of-state tourists. During a Tuesday, April 19 meeting of the committee, Leah Knepper, with Raleigh-based marketing firm French West Vaughan, said research shows Wrightsville Beach would be better marketed as a stand-alone destination for

in-state residents, but for out-ofstate families, Wrightsville Beach will be packaged with activities and destinations in Wilmington as well. “We need to make sure that our target aligns with our markets,” Knepper stated. Steve Kelly, the lead media planner for Raleigh-based Clean Design, said what was working for Wrightsville Beach is continued investment in print ads during key periods as well as in the new digital world that includes paid search, paid video and social media. “We’re just looking at what worked and incorporating it

accordingly for next year,” Kelly said. As social media and digital video continue to be on the rise in effectiveness for tourism tactics, Kelly proposed an increased focus on content creation for such outlets, meaning a higher investment in certain outlets like TripAdvisor. Wi t h t h e i n v e s t m e n t , Wrightsville Beach would be able to control what content would be advertised on TripAdvisor. Otherwise, the content would be completely out of Wrightsville Beach’s control. Another big spend for marketing would be for paid searches, like ads while people search on Google, where Kelly described that field as “you pay to play.” Kelly also described the target markets for tourism in each season. During the spring and summer months, ads need to be geared toward families going on vacation while off of school and in the fall, more couples either with no children or fully grown children would be the target. As for social media, Knepper mentioned a higher focus on usergenerated content. Last season, the Wrightsville Beach blog launched a campaign known as #myWBadventure. By using the hashtag, the advertisers are better able to find and benefit from what users on Instagram are doing and seeing in the area, Knepper explained. Shawn Braden, executive vice president of marketing for the Wilmington and Beaches Convention & Visitors Bureau and also the liaison for the committee, agreed with Knepper on this point. “We want to use hashtags to perpetuate the brand,” Braden stated.

Candidates talk schools, HB 2 while Markley calls for more teacher pay By Terry Lane Staff Writer

While the candidates for North Carolina governor told a convention of state educators how they would address teacher pay and improve services for public schools on Friday morning, New Hanover County Schools Superintendent Dr. Tim Markley said the system needed to do better a better job at providing resources for teachers and students. As the host for the N.C. School Association of School Administrators annual conference, Markley spoke to the group about the priorities for the 2016 legislative agenda, which also included efforts to improve teacher recruitment. Primarily, Markley voiced the group’s position that education funding in the state is too low. “Invest in adequate resources for our students. We are 46th in the nation in per-pupil funding,” Markley said. He also said the state ranked 50th in pay for principals. Overall, the school system needs to increase base pay for all teachers before implementing any pay changes that differentiate based on experience or discipline. The group also urged legislators to provide a pay increase for all school-based administrators that

mirrors the increases provided to teachers. The group also called for changes in teacher licensing standards to develop reciprocity for other states. Markley said it didn’t make sense that North Carolina accepts other states’ driver’s licenses, but requires testing for teachers from other states. One idea was to expedite licensing for spouses of military members and veterans. After Markley spoke, Attorney General Roy Cooper, the Democratic candidate for governor, and Governor Pat McCrory spoke to the group in separate addresses. Where McCrory pointed to improvements in the school system, Cooper spoke of declining morale. “You know and I know that over the past few years, public education has hit hard times,” Cooper said. “What I hear from teachers is they feel a lack of respect. I’m talking about a lack of respect from the governor and the legislature.”

But McCrory said that many of the problems in the education system, including pay disparities, could be traced back to his predecessors. He said schools have raised pay of teachers with less than 10 years’ experience and that his proposal to raise teacher pay by 5 percent, with a 3.5 percent increase in bonus, would raise the average teacher salary to $50,000. The candidates also addressed the controversial House Bill 2, which addressed transgendered use of bathrooms, as well as other issues like civil rights lawsuits and the minimum wage. Cooper said the bill was discriminatory and could potentially threaten federal funding for schools. But in his speech, McCrory said that HB 2 was the subject of a “ridiculous debate,” much of which isn’t even occurring within the state. “It’s not about discrimination. It’s about common-sense etiquette,” McCrory said.

BOA BRIEFS

Board votes on lifeguard stand sponsorship, bill changes By Emmy Errante Staff Writer

Lifeguard stand sponsorship

Wrightsville Beach replaced eight of its 13 lifeguard stands this year, and town leaders agreed April 14 on a program to let individuals or businesses sponsor the new stands. For $3,500, each sponsor will receive a sandblasted, 12-inch by 18-inch gray and white sign on the stand for five years or the lifetime of that stand, the board of aldermen decided Thursday night. The town implemented a similar lifeguard stand sponsorship program when the stands were replaced in 2008. It’s a cost-efficient advertising opportunity for businesses, alderwoman Lisa Weeks pointed out, but stands are also sponsored for more personal reasons. “Sometimes people like to do ‘In Memory Of’ or something like that,” town manager Tim Owens said. “Or, if you live near it, it’s kind of neat to have your name on a lifeguard stand.” Owens said he already has at least three interested sponsors. David James and Company built the stands earlier this year for about $3,700 each, so the sponsorship program allows the town to recoup some of the costs. A few of the stands incurred irreparable damage last fall when Hurricane Joaquin generated high surf, but Owens said the town had planned to replace eight of the stands this year anyway. The other five will be replaced next year.

Billing changes

Starting in October, Wrightsville Beach residents will be able to pay utility bills by credit card. But they

could also be penalized for paying late, depending on how the board of aldermen votes next month. During the board’s April 14 meeting, members unanimously approved an agreement with a vendor to accept credit card payments for utility bills. Town leaders have discussed it in the past, but they decided to wait until an October 2016 update of the town’s financial software. The vendor, Automated Merchant Systems, recommends the town charge a $4 fee per transaction to offset the vendor’s processing fees. Other governments charge anywhere from $2.95 to $11, town finance manager Erica Walters said. The transaction fee can be adjusted as needed, she added. The town could also impose a late fee for overdue bills. In May, board members will decide when a bill is deemed overdue and how much to charge. Currently, the town sends out a late notice, but last year it had to send 1,320 late notices, incurring costs to the town in both man-hours and postage. Because residents know they’ll get a late notice, Walters said, many of them wait until they get that notice to pay. “There’s no incentive for customers to pay on time,” she said. “We have a lot that wait until the very last minute.” She’s proposing that in place of the late notice, residents get charged a late fee. Their original bill will outline the new procedure and when to pay to avoid being penalized. Most governments bill residents that way, she added. In May, town leaders will decide how much of a late fee to charge. Walters polled other towns in the area and found most charged 10 percent of the original bill, although one town charged a flat fee of $10. email emmy@luminanews.com

Editorial/Opinion Our thoughts By Simon Gonzalez Ralphie has worked for months to earn his prize. He’s had to drink gallons of hot chocolate, and collect dozens of labels, but finally his Orphan Annie Secret Society decoder pin has arrived! Now that he’s a member of the secret circle, he anxiously listens to the next Orphan Annie radio program, ready to decipher the cryptic message from Annie herself. He uses his pin and cracks the code. He laboriously writes it out, letter by letter, and at last the secret message is revealed: Be sure to drink your Ovaltine. “Ovaltine?” Ralphie says in disgust. “A crummy commercial? Son of a gun!” Ralphie, of course, is the protagonist of the iconic 1983 movie “A Christmas Story.” But while the decoder scene is fictional, it’s an apt commentary on today’s society. We feel your pain, Ralphie. Sometimes, it seems like the whole world has become nothing but a crummy commercial. Last week, the Wrightsville Beach Board of Aldermen voted to allow sponsorships of eight new lifeguard stands. At the cost of $3,500, sponsors will receive a 12-inch by 18-inch sign on the stand. If all eight are sponsored, the revenue will pay for most of the cost of the new stands. And that’s a good thing. It’s possible that at least some of the signs will be purchased in honor or memory of someone, another good thing. But it’s also a reminder that it’s hard to escape commercialization, even when spending a relaxing day at the beach. Advertising is everywhere. The new app launched in New Hanover County Schools this year as a communication method for parents, students and teachers includes ads. The Wave Transit buses that transport UNCW students to campus are rolling billboards. In our capitalistic society, there’s nothing evil about advertising. Producers and vendors present information about their goods to consumers to help us make informed decisions about our purchases. They tell us about sales, and otherwise entice us to buy their wares. There is an implicit contract between advertisers and consumers when it comes to certain media. When you read this newspaper, or our sister publication, Wrightsville Beach Magazine, you know you will see ads in print and online. We trust you will find products and services you are interested in. Likewise, we expect to watch commercials when we watch TV. Youtube, not so much. But it becomes obnoxious when it’s ubiquitous. Studies have shown that people living in urban areas are exposed to about 5,000 ads each day. Go to a movie, plunk down $10 and up for a

ticket, and what do you see before the previews? Commercials. Look up something online, and suddenly every website you visit has ads for that product. Fill your car with gas, and the pump plays adverts. A taxi was spotted yesterday with a message on its back windshield, “Your ad could be here.” Then there is naming sponsorships — on buildings, teams and events — especially prevalent in the wide world of sports. The Texas Rangers and Houston Astros played a three-game series this week that was grandiosely billed as The Silver Boot Series Presented by The Texas Lottery. Watch a game on television, and virtually everything from the starting lineups to the sideline reports are “brought to you by” something or other. Ads are digitally inserted behind home plate and on sideboards. It’s even worse in person. Go to a minorleague baseball game and the advertising assault is non-stop. Foul balls, pitching changes, between-innings entertainment — everything is sponsored. Soccer players are walking, running and slide tackling advertisements; the prominent feature on their uniforms is the name of the club’s sponsor. As franchises look to maximize revenues, it’s probably only a matter of time before it comes to mainstream American sports. Teams already play in stadiums that bear the name of a corporation. Stadiums that, for the most part, were paid for by taxpayers’ dollars. Motorsports are notorious for product placement. Stock cars at a NASCAR race are high-speed advertising vehicles, with the primary sponsor prominently featured and numerous smaller sponsors plastered over every available inch. In the post-race interview, the driver will be sure to mention how the “sponsor’s name Chevy” performed that day. Listen to a talk show, and the host will drop in a commercial as though it’s part of the pontification. Grocery carts have ads, as do bathroom stall doors. It can become overwhelming. In the grand scheme of things, the Wrightsville Beach lifeguard stand sponsorships are not a big deal. Good for the town for coming up with a revenue stream to pay for them. And even if the signs are used to advertise products, it could be worse. At least they’re not on huge banners being towed overhead by small airplanes. Keep all this in mind this weekend if you turn out to watch any of the sixth-annual West Marine Carolina Cup.

Ralphie. Sometimes, it seems like the whole world has become

Wilmington. Gaffley said he was impressed with the facilities and prices at Port City Marina, and decided to leave her here for updates and repairs. “It was very well priced and a really nice facility, close to downtown amenities and everything we needed to make repairs and get everything going,” Gaffley said. The work includes a total overhaul of the air conditioning system. Gaffley said everything should be completed within a month or two. “At times, some things need to be addressed or freshened up,” said Gaffley, who is overseeing the work while the boat is at the dock. “Because of the type of clientele that we service, we don’t take any chances with things like that. If we spring a couple of leaks then we replace the whole system, to make sure someone’s dream holiday is not spoiled due to A/C.” When the work is finished, Island Heiress will sail to the Bahamas, where she will be available with prices starting at $115,000 a week. “The goal is for her to be a charter vessel in the Bahamas,” Gaffley said. “She’s been earmarked for a new career.” The time — and money — in Wilmington have been well spent, so much so that Gaffley

n RATES

and sewer budget has proven more difficult due to expensive projects that current rates can’t cover. Rates were last increased two years ago, but Blair said they’re still relatively low. Town manager Tim Owens offered several options for how the rate increase would be implemented. Under the scenario the aldermen chose, residents would pay about $7 more per month. A resident who used 6,000 gallons of water would pay $152.56, which Owens said was very similar to what Cape Fear Public Utility Authority customers pay. Larger businesses would pay more — up to $2,952 extra per year, but Owens said only the Islander Condominiums and Seapath Towers fell into that category. The rate increase would generate about $400,000 a year in revenue, although that estimate could be off if higher water rates cause residents to use less water, new public works director Bill Squires pointed out. But if correct, that increase would pay for the town’s $791,315 in water and sewer projects in two years. Those projects include modeling and assessing the town’s water and sewer system, which will help staff and leaders determine the system’s future. Owens

would recommend the city to others. “If more people were aware of Port City Marina they would go there in a heartbeat,” he said. “For the boater who keeps their vessel going back and forth between New England or the Northeast and Fort Lauderdale, I think Wilmington is a great alternative if all they are going to do is send their boat away from the cold and snow in the winter. We’ve had a lovely winter season here. It’s been temperate for the most part.” Port City Marina is part of the growth of the northern end of downtown. The area includes Pier 33, a 27,000-square-foot concrete pier that will be the largest concert venue in Wilmington, two restaurants that are under construction and scheduled to open this summer, two hotels, an apartment building and other housing. Hansen, the owner of the Island Heiress, also was the head of the HMS Bounty Organization LLC, which owned the tall ship Bounty, a replica of the original 18th-century British navy vessel that was built for the 1962 film “Mutiny on the Bounty.” The Bounty sank off the coast of North Carolina on Oct. 29, 2012, when it sailed into the path of Hurricane Sandy. Crewmember Claudene Christian was killed, and ship captain Robin Walbridge is still missing and presumed dead.

also strongly recommended upgrading sewer lift stations that don’t perform well during busy times and installing automated water meters. The town has already committed to at least $300,000 of that work, he said. While the town is paying to fix its own system, a separate, much larger expense is looming. Wrightsville Beach could be required by contract to pay between $15 million and $18 million in the next few years for repairs made to Wilmington’s sewer lines following a 2005 sewage spill. A bond referendum might be necessary to pay the bill, Blair said, because no typical rate increase could create that much money.

Pay raise for lifeguards Town staff and leaders are in favor of giving all Wrightsville Beach Ocean Rescue staff a 25-cent increase per hour. But since lifeguard expenses are paid from a limited, separate pot of money, they’re exploring ways to cut costs, like preventing seasonal staff from collecting unemployment. The town budgeted about $12,500 in lifeguard unemployment insurance last year because any guard that works after Oct. 1 can collect unemployment when they stop working for the winter. “That makes no sense,” the aldermen said repeatedly.

told the group that the council had drafted a resolution in anticipation. Saffo said that state legislature should rescind the bill. “It was done in a quick manner,” he said. “It needs a lot more discussion.” H.B. 2 was passed March 23 after a special session called in response to a recently passed Charlotte ordinance that advocates and city leaders argued would address transgendered concerns over bathroom usage by relaxing gender restrictions for bathrooms and changing areas. However, state legislators said they worried about privacy concerns and the potential for predators to take advantage of the ordinance. The final speaker was T.R.

Ocean Rescue director Dave Baker agreed, and said he’s working to rectify the issue by only scheduling guards with second jobs, like firemen, to work after Oct. 1 because they’re less likely to collect unemployment. He only keeps a handful of lifeguards into October. When asked why he needed to schedule any lifeguards in the offseason, Baker responded, “With the growth on the other side of the bridge, it’s becoming a year-round use [of the beach].” Regardless, the aldermen agreed to a 25-cent increase for all ocean rescue staff, meaning a new guard will make $10.25 per hour for a 46-hour week. Life guards as seasonal employees do not qualify for overtime, Blair said. Baker had originally argued for a 50-cent increase this year, saying potential employees are “balking now at the $10 an hour.” Carolina Beach also lists its starting salary for lifeguards at $10 an hour, but Baker wants to offer competitive pay that helps maintain Wrightsville Beach’s current ocean rescue service standards, which he said “is some of the best service in North Carolina, if not the entire East Coast.” The final budget will be approved during a public hearing in May. email emmy@luminanews.com

Depending on the paddler’s board and experience, racers are expected to take between 2 and 3.5 hours to complete the course. Returning to the race is Annabel Anderson, a three-time champion in the cup’s elite and 13.5mile Graveyard Race and top woman in the world in standup paddleboard. “The Graveyard Race is just plain tough,” Anderson said. “It throws a bit of everything at you and you never really know which way you’re going until just before the gun goes. I’ll approach it as I always have — take it as it comes and look forward to making it to the finish line.” Also returning to the cup, since 2012, is secondranked Candice Appleby of California, who will compete in the women’s elite competition. “Anderson and Appleby rarely meet,” Parker said. “It’s always a great battle when they’re on the same start line.” Another returning competitor is Travis Grant of Australia, the 2015 Graveyard Race male champion, who beat three-time winner and third-ranked racer in the world Danny Ching, of Hermosa Beach, California “I look forward to the Carolina Cup paddleboard race each year,” said Grant, the world’s secondranked racer according to SUPRacer.com. “It’s the first big race of the season, and I think it’s great that the biggest paddle race in America is held on the East Coast.” Grant said the conditions and length of the Graveyard Race make it a challenge for all competitors. “The Graveyard Race is a very fitting name,” Grant said. “It is just that: a tough one.

would like to introduce that here in Wrightsville Beach.” The other side of Longtin’s business, the handmade sharks’ tooth jewelry, stems from a more recently acquired passion. She has amassed a collection of teeth while scuba diving off the North Carolina coast, but she found her first tooth just two years ago. She first came to Wrightsville Beach in 2014 after earning a degree in Montreal. The trip was meant to be a visit, she said, but she decided to earn her scuba diving certification while she was here. At the scuba class she met her boyfriend, Chris Slog, who was one of the instructors. She decided to extend her trip for the rest of the summer. Slog has extensive experience collecting sharks’ teeth on scuba expeditions, including ancient 6-inch-long teeth from the extinct Megalodon. He took Longtin on

potentially win. There are a lot of different elements to get right — surf, flatwater, inlet currents, wind — and there’s always a slight bit of luck involved.” Ching will also be returning to compete, along with internationally ranked competitors from roughly twenty countries: New Zealand, Australia, France, Canada, Spain and Mexico, which will include Olympians, world-record holders, and champions in the disciplines of standup, prone, surfski and outrigger canoe paddling. New on the race calendar this year is the six-person Hawaiian outrigger canoes (OC-6), which is scheduled to compete at noon on Sunday, April 24. Teams of six will compete in race heats around the Harbor Island Course. “We believe this is the first ever OC-6 race in Wrightsville Beach,” Mark Schmidt, Carolina Cup race director, said. “One of the things we try to do with the race each year is to make it more inclusive to all the different watercraft.” Clinics and demonstrations will be scheduled throughout the five-day event, including one by outrigger designer Johnny Puakea, founder of Puakea Designs, giving paddlers the chance to learn from one of the top pros in the industry. Organizers expect more than 1,000 registrations for races and clinics. The clinics and demonstrations will feature many of the top experts in the paddling world, including Larry Cain, Travis Grant, Lina Augaitis, Dan Gavere, Dr. Bob Arnot, Fiona Wylde and Zane Schweitzer. Race visitors will have the opportunity to try boards, canoes, and a variety of equipment at the Demo Zone, where 60 vendors will have the latest equipment, boards, and boats on display. All races will be visible from host hotel Blockade Runner Beach Resort and the Causeway bridges on Wrightsville Beach. “This will be a chance for spectators to watch some of the biggest names in Hawaiian outrigger paddling,” Schmidt said. “To see an event like this would typically require traveling to California or Hawaii. It will be a great show.”

one of his expeditions and she was hooked. “I was like, ‘This is amazing! I want to do this,’” she said. They usually find the teeth at specific sites either 25 or 40 miles offshore, she said, where the water is about 100 feet deep. Sometimes, finding one tooth is a sign there are others in the area, she said, so if they find several teeth at the same location they’ll go back over and over again. But, she added, even once they’ve found a promising dive site, finding the teeth takes “patience and luck.” For many sharks’ tooth collectors, the larger the tooth, the better the find, she said. But since her sharks’ teeth are now intended for jewelry, she’s more interested in the quality of the tooth than the size. The Workshop will sell large sharks’ teeth, but the eccentricity of Longtin’s business model involves the small teeth. Customers will be able to choose a tooth and a type of jewelry and

Longtin will custom make it. She’ll even dip the teeth in gold or silver. “You pick your tooth and then go to another display and choose your type or length of chain … so you end up with the perfect necklace for you,” she explained. After months of diving for sharks’ teeth with Slog, Longtin experienced the final serendipitous encounter that led to The Workshop’s creation. She met the owner of Kohl’s Frozen Custard and learned the shop had a 400-square-foot spare storage room in which she could make her business idea a reality. Over the past few months, she and Slog renovated the interior and added a window, a door and signage. And with those final touches, her brief stay in Wrightsville Beach became indefinite. “The location is perfect, so I decided to stay,” she said, “and I’m very happy about that.” email emmy@luminanews.com

LIFESTYLES Making a Difference in the Cape Fear Region

r a e w t o FUNDS WISHES o f y c n Fa W By Krys Estes, Contributing Writer

hile 6-year-old Abigail strutted playfully near the runway before the Wine Women & Shoes fashion show last week in Wilmington, her mother hovered around a group from the local Make-A-Wish foundation charity. Many may not have realized the lively child has been in remission for more than one year after she was diagnosed with kidney cancer at age 4. For Abigail and her mother, Chris Herrmann, the joyous recovery started with the child’s granted wish: a trip to the Walt Disney World Resort. “It is absolutely devastating to have a child with a lifethreatening illness,” Herrmann said. “It’s very depressing. It’s not a fun time in life, that’s for sure, and Make-AWish helped pull us out of that state. Our wish filled us with so much joy, happiness and laughter that we haven’t heard in a really long time in our house. The smiles were endless and it was a turning point for our family.” Abigail and Chris Herrmann were among the guests of honor at the fifth annual Wine Women & Shoes event held April 14 at the Burney Center on the campus of the University of North Carolina Wilmington. The annual fashion show and marketplace raises money for MakeA-Wish Eastern North Carolina, the local chapter of the foundation that grants “wishes” to children diagnosed with life-threatening medical conditions. Wine Women & Shoes showcased clothing, shoes and accessories from several local businesses, giving guests a glance at new fashion trends while they sampled wine and hors d’oeuvres from local eateries. Guests could also purchase tickets to win prizes such as a new Volvo or a trip to Napa Valley. The event meant more than just showing off fashion trends to one of the shoe carriers, Ryan Williams, who had his wish of being an actor granted to him 10 years ago when Make-A-Wish flew him and his family to Los Angeles, California, for a week. Williams was born with heart disease. “It is so nice to work these events and be able to give back to the foundation I believe to be the greatest foundation on this Earth,” Williams said. Williams said he will have this disease for the rest of his life, but it won’t stop him from taking care of himself and living a full life. Some guests, like Sherry Hickman, enjoyed the fashion marketplace and said it was a great way to give back to the community. “This is the first time I’ve been to Wine Women & Shoes,” Hickman said. “I just purchased some really pretty earrings and I’m having a great time.” Wine Women & Shoes served as volunteer work for UNCW sorority Chi Omega. The group’s national philanthropy recipient has been Make-A-Wish for 15 years. “It’s been a really good and fun experience and the event turned out really pretty,” said Haley Cox, director of community service for Chi Omega. Monkee’s, a designer fashion boutique in Lumina Station, featured new summer clothing in the fashion show. Paula Corbett, who has volunteered for the event for five years and models for Monkee’s, said she loves that the event brings women together every year to enjoy things that they love. “You can’t have a better event than this,” Corbett said. “It’s very organized and the whole thing makes people feel good while

benefiting Make-A-Wish, which is so important. It gives me great pleasure to be a part of it all.” The Wilmington event of Wine Women & Shoes has raised more than $200,000 for Make-A-Wish to help grant wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions in eastern North Carolina. In 2015, the event was attended by more than 400 guests and raised more than $70,000. Event coordinators are still tallying this year’s totals and hope for a higher amount to contribute. “Seeing the looks on these kids’ faces when they are granted wishes and seeing families reunited because of the wish is something you can’t put a value on,” said Jerry Peters, vice president of brand advancement for Make-AWish Eastern North Carolina. “It’s so rewarding.”

While you worship I will impart a spirit that cannot be contained You will be cleansed of the past and only the gift of heaven will remain Lift your voices and let freedom ring out so that the nation will know My presence will overcome all the evil until only My glory will reign and show The world how the body will impart a cleansing all across this land Removing obstacles in your path and making you strong so you can stand Against the wrongs that are now more commonplace than ever intended Raise your voice and praise the God of your salvation because broken fences need to be mended I will impart wisdom and knowledge in abundance to make the needed change A well of living water will rise up in all My believers that may seem strange Go with the flow and take what you have and impart it to other believers Walk out in faith and confidence that you can give and not always be the receiver The river of life will bless this land and wash away the mistakes of the past This land will be renewed to a place of worship and loving that will last Never doubt the power you have to impart the truth to all who will listen too

A new walk in this land is coming and I impart it to all who remain true (Rom 1:8 - 12 NIV) 8 - First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world. 9 - God, whom I serve with my whole heart in preaching the gospel of his Son, is my witness how constantly I remember you 10 - in my prayers at all times; and I pray that now at last by God’s will the way may be opened for me to come to you. 11 - I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong—12 - that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith. (Gal 3:18 – 22 NIV) 18 - For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on a promise; but God in his grace gave it to Abraham through a promise. 19 - What, then, was the purpose of the law? It was added because of transgressions until the Seed to whom the promise referred had come. The law was put into effect through angels by a mediator. 20 - A mediator, however, does not represent just one party; but God is one. Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! 21 - For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law. 22 - But the Scripture declares that the whole world is a prisoner of sin, so that what was promised, being given through faith in Jesus Christ, might be given to those who believe.

ANDREW WOMMACK MINISTRIES

One year with Jesus in the Gospels

teaching God’s unconditional love and grace

www.awmi.net

LOVE AND TRUST April 21 Matthew 9:18, “While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.” MATTHEW 9:18-19 Jesus could have healed this girl by His spoken word, but He did as He was requested to do. This illustrates how the Lord ministers to us according to our faith. Jesus ministered to him at the level where his faith was and didn’t rebuke his little faith (Jas. 1:5). There is a human faith which is limited to believing only what we can perceive through our five senses. But the supernatural, God kind of faith goes beyond what we can see, taste, hear, smell, and feel. God’s kind of faith calls those things which be not as though they already were. We exercise faith almost daily in such things as sitting on a chair and driving a car. But our faith is no better than the object in which

it is placed. If I were to sit in a chair made of cardboard, I would go crashing to the ground. Regardless of how much faith I had, my faith would fall flat because the object of my faith was faulty. Hebrews 12:2, tells us that we are to be “looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.” We must transfer our faith from human self reliance and independence, to reliance upon, adherence to, and trust upon Jesus Christ in all areas of our lives. Faith, in its simplest definition, is to trust, to rely, and to depend upon the resource of another. God’s Word declares that the object of our faith, Jesus Christ, can never fail or disappoint us. Love produces faith, or is what makes faith work. We naturally trust those who we know truly love us. A revelation of God’s unconditional love for us will make faith just naturally abound in us. Are you struggling with faith? You have a deficiency in understanding how much God loves you. Let Him reveal His love to you today.

Sports/Marine World’s best paddleboarders compete at WB By Emmy Errante Staff Writer

The second annual Wrightsville Beach SUP Surf Pro Am April 16–17 drew what organizer Haywood Newkirk called “one of the strongest women’s fields ever in a contest.” Reigning two-time SUP Surf world champion Izzi Gomez won the women’s pro final over two-time ISA World SUP Surf gold medalist Emmy Merrill, California champion Candice Appleby and Oregon talent Fiona Wylde. The wind caused swells to pop up randomly throughout the lineup south of Crystal Pier. Finding the right wave partly came down to luck, women’s finalist Appleby said. “The waves are all over the place, so you have to be in the right place at the right time,” she said. “It definitely challenges a multitude of paddling abilities — not just surfing, but just being able to paddle in the wind and balance on the really small boards.” The men’s side also featured the world’s best paddleboarders, including three-time world longboard champion Colin McPhillips, last year’s Pro Am winner Georgio Gomez and other top talent from California, Hawaii and France. Participation was double that of last year, Newkirk said, due partly to event sponsors Hobie and Salt Life bringing their athletes to compete and partly to the success of last year’s event. The contest’s scheduling also boosts participation — it’s held just one week before one of the biggest flatwater races in the world, the Carolina Cup. After two days of competition, Hawaiian Bullet Obra took first

place in Men’s Pro Shortboard and earned the Haywood Newkirk Senior Waterman Award for also advancing to the longboard final. The conditions tested nearly every facet of the talented paddleboarders’ skillsets. A 20-knot breeze blew all weekend, creating jumbled, chest-high waves. Due to the high winds Saturday afternoon, organizers decided to run the semifinals and finals on Sunday, when a slight change in wind direction created cleaner conditions. Sunday’s ocean was still what McPhillips called “a washing machine,” but it wasn’t as challenging as Saturday, he noted

before paddling out for his longboard final. “Yesterday was gnarly,” he said, pulling on his contest jersey over his wetsuit. “I’ll take today any day over yesterday.” Many paddleboarders, like McPhillips and Obra, competed in both the shortboard and longboard divisions. McPhillips said in these conditions, longboarding was slightly easier because the board was more stable. Despite feeling lost in the lineup in his earlier heat, McPhillips found a rhythm in the longboard final and cruised to victory over Kieran and Fisher Grant, brothers from

Florida, and Obra. While the longboard division was judged on smoothness and style, the shortboarders earned points for radical tricks. Stand-up paddle shortboards are the same shape as surfboards but heavier, so competitors use their paddle as leverage to maneuver the boards across the face of the waves, Appleby explained. “Paddles allow us to do the more progressive maneuvers with a little more force and a little more power, so if you can utilize that, you’re going to maximize your scoring potential,” she said. A handful of locals took on the internationally ranked pros. Wrightsville Beach’s Jarrod Covington and April Zilg surfed in their respective pro divisions, and Newkirk surfed in every division for which he was eligible, pro and amateur, joking on Sunday, “I think I lost about eight pounds yesterday!” Newkirk and his family encouraged other paddlers to enter different divisions by donating the Haywood Newkirk Senior Waterman Award for the paddler who achieved the highest combined finish in the pro and the longboard category. Newkirk donated the award in honor of his father, a surfer, fisherman and open-water swimmer and, Newkirk said, “one of the original watermen here.” The award, like the contest itself, celebrates the all-around waterman spirit and various ways the ocean can bring joy to individuals and families, Newkirk said, which was why this contest was even more special for him. “My 13-year-old daughter competed for the first time this year,” he said, smiling. email emmy@luminanews.com

Mid-April weather and conditions stall fishing By Skylar Walters

It’s not that big of a surprise that April has been a roller coaster as far as the weather goes, particularly during these first few weeks of the month. Water temperatures have remained steady, reading right around the lower-to-mid 60-degree mark. Air temperatures, on the other hand, have been the opposite as lows have dipped to near freezing and the high reached near record on Tuesday. There’s slightly less than a week and a half left in the month and as we near the end, the weather should start to settle down into a more typical spring pattern. Until then, take advantage of those days that afford you the

shrimp on two hook drop rigs were the bait of choice. Fresh shrimp is also enticing some black drum to take the baits and anglers have reported good days on these as well. The bluefish are starting to attack Got-Cha Plugs jigged from the piers and appear to be gaining just a little size, making catching dinner a little easier. Remember, both black drum and bluefish have size and possession limits so make sure to check your regulations before heading out and adding fish to your cooler. Inshore, the red drum fishing has been steadily picking up and has not been hampered by the fluctuating weather.

The fishing has not really changed all that much in the past couple of weeks. opportunity to wet a line. The fishing has not really changed all that much in the past couple of weeks. When the weather allows, the fishermen find the fish and when the winds blow or the rain comes, the anglers are more apt to remain at the house. The reports for the past week are again weather based, but there were a few good days. Those fishing the piers and the surf had some very good days on the Virgina mullet, with reports of a plethora of fish being caught on some days while other days produced little to none. The piers along Surf City and Topsail reported very good catches of mullet along with a few puffers, as did the piers along the Pleasure Island beaches. The surf anglers between the north and south also did well, including some of the normal favorite holes along Wrightsville Beach. Fresh

Artificial baits are working well around the docks and in the creeks. Scented baits seem to work better but they’ll eat just about anything if it’s presented the right way. Slow retrieves are still best. Anglers are also starting to report many more encounters with baitfish, which will only help get the red drum more active in search of their next dinner. Flounder fishing and catching has also increased the past couple of weeks and while the majority of the fish are undersized, many have been reported being very close to legal length, which is a good sign for this summer and fall before the fishing is closed. Near shore and offshore, the fishing is dependent on the weather and has been pretty nonexistent during the past week. The forecast doesn’t look all that great for the upcoming weekend, either.
