+ Ormond residents star in ‘Spamalot’
The hit Broadway show “Monty Python’s Spamalot,” a musical comedy from the film classic “Monty Python and The Holy Grail,” opens March 20 at Daytona Playhouse and runs through April 5. The play is the tale of King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table as they embark on their quest for the Holy Grail. A Lady of the Lake, Laker Girls, flying cows, killer rabbits, taunting Frenchmen and musical numbers are just a few of the characters in this play, directed by Kathy Thompson with musical direction by Ben Beck and choreography by Anthony Romeo. Tickets cost $21 for adults, $19 for seniors 55 and older and $10 for 18 and under. Buy online at DaytonaPlayhouse.org or call 255-2431.
wo residential developments will be getting started this year in Ormond Beach, though both will take several years to build out. If the Ormond Renaissance Condominium gets a final zoning change approval from the City Commission, it will eventually bring 286 luxury condos to the heart of town. Huntington Village is set to break ground this year on a development of 327 single-family homes and villas west of Interstate 95 in an unincorporated area near the city.
(For more on Huntington, see the box on Page 5.) The City Commission will consider the zoning approval for the condominium in two readings, tentatively set for April. These projects are significant and will likely lead to new business development, according to Ormond Economic Development Director Joe Mannarino. “As you have more rooftops, you have more retail,” he said. “That’s how it works.” The Ormond Renaissance Condominum is good news for
nearby retailers, especially Trails Shopping Center, he said. There are also houses being built in established neighborhoods west of Interstate 95, such as Breakaway Trails, and Mannarino said he expects this to lead to more mixed-use developments along the south side of State Road 40. As the west side of town builds out, it should lead to construction in Ormond Crossings, a planned development on North U.S. 1 that has a potential for 3,000 homes. Neighborhoods
near the Crossings, Halifax Plantation, Ormond Lakes and Plantation Bay, also have room to expand. Ormond Crossings also includes a business park that would provide jobs. But more houses also mean a more populated area and demand on roads and services. City Manager Joyce Shanahan said the need for water, sewer, transportation and other resources are considered by the

BACK ON TRACK
Despite being in a coma three months ago, Alessandra Buenner will still run in the Halifax Health Tomoka Half Marathon. It was a particularly gorgeous Christmas day for Alessandra Buenner. She was still floating high on that “special feeling you get around the holidays,” and she was going for a ride down East Granada Boulevard in preparation for the upcoming Tomoka Marathon. Flying down the Granada Bridge at 30 mph, Buenner slowed down to 14 mph to make a left turn — and woke up in the hospital 12 days later. “It’s that simple,” she said. “I don’t remember anything. When I woke up I said, ‘What am I doing here?’ The doctors asked me if I knew who I was. My friend
Sara Dean came in after and told me everything is going to be OK. Once you see that person that you trust so much, you are fine. It’s all in your head.” Through three months of recovery at the Halifax Health, Buenner was able to get back on track with her life and her training. She credits her quick recovery to her mindset, and to the officers, nurses and doctors who took care of her. When her therapists weren’t exactly thrilled that she was still training for the half mara-

Romance blossomed amid the roar of Bike Week on March 11 when a couple here for the event got married at Bailey Riverbridge Gardens. Greg Huber and Denise Miller (now Huber) were riding their motorcycles when they saw “Free Biker Weddings” on the sign at A Floral Boutique, 321 N. U.S. 1. “We had been talking about it for a while and just couldn’t figure out the logistics,” Huber said. “So we said, ‘Why not?’” Miller said they were having a great time visiting and reminiscing with old friends who just moved to Ormond Beach, Brian and Kathy Kilpatrick, and it just seemed like the perfect time. The Ohio couple got their license at the Courthouse Annex in Daytona Beach, and then later that day picked up the flowers at A Floral Bouquet for a sunset wedding at the park. Store owners Rick and Susie Rivers helped with the wedding ceremony, provided the flowers for free and paid for the officiant. Rivers, who has published two books on marketing, often places attention-getting messages on his sign. After Valentine’s Day, he had this: “How was that couch?”
He said several guys who had forgotten to buy flowers for the day stopped in and bought a bouquet. “They knew exactly what the sign meant,” he said. While not directly earning money, the wedding promotion is building goodwill. Rivers said the friends of the newlyweds told him they are going to be customers, and a biker magazine plans to do a story about it, he said. But the money is secondary to Susie Rivers, who said she enjoys the personal aspect of the business. “When people send flowers, they are sending their heart,” she said. “They are trying to say something.” Having been in business in Ormond Beach for 30 years, she said they have developed long-term relationships. They have provided flowers for someone for a prom, and then a few years later for that person’s wedding or other occasion that called for flowers. She said people will keep photos that show the bridal bouquet all their lives, and press flowers in a book. “It’s more than a business. It’s rewarding,” she said.

llison Peck’s fourthgrade classmates surrounded her with cheers and a continuous round of applause under a pavilion at St. Brendan’s Catholic School Tuesday afternoon. Shouts of “You got this” and “Go Allison” might make an outsider believe she was running a marathon or going for a hula hoop record. But no, Allison Peck was cutting off 10 inches of her hair. This dramatic haircut wasn’t just a fashion statement. The fourth-grader was the first in line to donate her hair to those who needed it more through the nonprofit organization Locks of Love. “The other people really need hair because they have cancer,” she said. “It’s hard because they want to have hair, too, but they have to cut it all off.” A total of five people signed up to cut their hair, said social studies teacher Lizanne Swaringen. She said it’s important for their students to get a firsthand experience of what charity really looks like. “We can talk to kids all day

A big part of what we do at our school is to get kids involved in service projects.” During the event, the students who weren’t cutting their hair helped with a bake sale to raise money for the American Cancer Society. Salon Euphoria stylists Kathleen McNerny and Laura Squires donated their time to cut the students’ hair. “I thought it would be fun, and it’s a great cause,” McNerny said. “We have clients that have went through cancer and wear wigs.”

FIELD DAY By Wayne Grant | News Editor
City’s superb sports turf: at what cost? The City Commission agreed at its March 17 meeting to spend an extra $76,867 annually to maintain the turf at the Sport Complex and other city facilities. The Leisure Services Department requested the increase so that a professional landscaping company could be hired. The city maintains 71 acres of turf, including four T-ball fields, 10 soccer fields, three multipurpose fields, nine baseball fields and eight softball fields. Leisure Services Director Robert Carolin said there are 8,027 field uses per year (both games and practice). The contract was awarded to Austin Outdoor, which was the successful low bidder of $505,766.50. The company will be responsible for mowing, edging, fertilization, pest control, weed control, general
3
site cleanup, etc. At a workshop earlier this year, Carolin told the commissioners that an outside company could provide a healthier, more playable surface, would bring in top experts in turf management and pesticide usage, and could also bring in extra staff when necessary. “We feel confident it’s the right thing to do,” Carolin said. He said they currently only have one spray technician and an insect infestation can destroy a field almost overnight. “We had web worms, and by the time we got to the last field, it was brown,” he said. The Leisure Services Department currently has 10 employees. Hiring the outside company will allow the city to eliminate seven full-time positions. However, only three employees will be affected, Fi-
nance Director Kelly McGuire said, because three positions are vacant and one employee will be transferred. Carolin said part-time positions will be created, so that staff will be available to work on weekends without requiring overtime. The end result will be three full-time and four parttime employees. The employee reduction will mean a cost savings, but with the cost of the contract, the overall total budget for the athletic field services division goes up to $987,628, which is $76,867 higher. At a Leisure Services Advisory Board meeting last fall, the members voted unanimously against the plan. Chairman Doug Wigley said he had never heard any complaints about the fields. But Carolin told the board that the city came close to los-
ing the Wendelstedt Umpire School contract because of the weed-infested fields. He also said one field at the Sports Complex was shut down because of weed infestation and he had received complaints about a soccer field last season. City Manager Joyce Shanahan agreed with the contract for outside services in a recent interview. “It would cost more but give us a higher level of service,” she said. “It would allow us to work on things that we are good at, like lining the fields and getting them ready to play. ... We need specialists at spraying for bugs.” City Commissioner James Stowers suggested at the workshop that the city raise rental fees to make up the added cost. “If we’re going to have higher quality, the users should pay more,” he said.
A house in Ormond Beach was used as a decoy. A large undercover task force of law enforcement officers spent the last week in Volusia County exposing the underground world of child predators in an operation that resulted in 43 arrests, according to Gary Davidson, spokesman for the Sheriff’s Office. Among the arrests were 22 men who were nabbed after making arrangements to have sex with someone who they thought was a child. “Keep in mind, if you try to approach children, thinking you’re going to have sex with children, you may be approaching law enforcement,” Sheriff Ben Johnson said in a news conference announcing the arrests. Called Operation PredaTour 2015, the six-day operation targeted child predators, the prostitution trade and the distribution of child pornography. The Volusia County Sheriff’s Office spearheaded the operation, and was assisted by 20 local, state and federal agencies. During the operation, undercover law enforcement “chatters,” posed as children 14 years old or younger on the Internet and waited to be approached by the suspects. When the conversations turned to meeting the child for sex, the undercover operative made arrangements with the suspects to rendezvous at various locations, including a five-bedroom decoy house in Ormond Beach that had been wired with surveillance cameras to capture the encounters. Once the suspects arrived at their meeting point, an arrest team quickly moved in for the take-down. The 22 defendants, ranging in age from 20 to 59, arrested during the operation were each charged with three felony offenses: traveling to seduce, solicit, lure or entice a child; use of a computer to seduce, solicit, lure or entice a child; and unlawful use of a twoway communications device. Two Ormond Beach men were arrested: Alan Behnke, 51, and Chester Ringwald IV, 25, according to Davidson. Most of those arrested came from close by and travelled no more than a dozen miles. Some, though, were far from home, but didn’t have to travel far to get to the decoy house because they were already in town for Bike Week. When arrested, several of the defendants had condoms with them. One brought some chicken nuggets, as requested by the undercover chatter, and also had a knife in his car. After his arrest, one defendant told agents he was sorry and even wrote a letter of apology. Three are facing added charges for sending pictures of their penis to someone they thought was a child. The oldest defendant, a 59-yearold man, showed up thinking he was meeting a 12-year-old girl for sex. Another part of the operation that targeted on-line sex ads and streetlevel prostitution yielded an additional 19 arrests. The timing of the operation was no coincidence, as pimps and johns alike are known to bring the illegal sex trade into the area for special events such as Bike Week, Davidson said.

thon, she shrugged it off because she knew which route of recovery she wanted to take. “I don’t follow the rules, exactly,” she chuckled. “You have to know what does and doesn’t apply to you.

NEW DEVELOPMENT TO BEGIN SOON WEST OF INTERSTATE 95 Houses and villas will be available in ‘age-preferred’ community
Courtesy photo
The Ormond Renaissance Condominium is planned for the old hospital site on Sterthaus Drive.
DEVELOPMENT / FROM PAGE 1 Planning Department before approving a site plan. Lisa Bollenback, executive director of the River to Sea Transportation Planning Organization, said the TPO works with local governments to anticipate future demands on roadways. She said they use a planning model that takes into account future development expected by the cities, including Ormond Beach. The public also gets a chance to comment about transportation needs. The planning organization recently had a public meeting at the Senior Center in Ormond Beach to get public input. Shanahan said staff from the city Planning Department provides technical information to the TPO, and there is also a committee of elected officials. This year, the public will have a chance to speak on any topic related to the future of Ormond Beach at two “community conversations.” Details about the public meetings, tentatively set for April 18 and 22, will be released later, Shanahan said.
Construction of homes is expected to begin soon in Huntington Village, a new development west of Interstate 95, which is designed for 172 single-family homes and 155 villas. Though actually located in unincorporated Flagler County, it has an Ormond Beach address and the access roads are Shadow Crossing (same as Hunter’s Ridge) and Airport Road. Central Florida-based developer Howard Lefkowitz calls it a “lifestyle community” with maintenance-free living, social activities and recreation. Although the development is adding rooftops to the area, it doesn’t necessarily mean added population. Lefkowitz said many times people want to downsize, but stay in the area, and
Huntington Village will offer homes from 1,800 to 2,500 square feet. Prices will range from the “high one hundreds to the high two hundreds,” he said. He expects to get some retirees from the north, however, as well as some people escaping the congestion of South Florida. All lawn, irrigation, exterior painting, etc., will be provided in the mandatory maintenance contract. Though an attractive place to retire, it will not be age restricted. “We call it age-preferred,” he said. “We prefer 55 and over.” Lefkowitz said 20 homes should be complete this year and pick up substantially next year. Construction of the club house and swimming pool will begin this fall, and the villas in the first quarter of 2016.
The 12,500-square-foot club house will have a full-time manager, activity rooms, a great room for events and parties, and recreation including bocce ball, pickle ball, yoga, aerobics, etc. Lefkowitz said a person will be on staff to help residents with special requests, such as moving a heavy object or changing a light bulb that is in a high location. They will also have a contractor for repairs, so residents won’t have to call around to find someone. He said the fee will be in the midrange of comparable developments. Though based in Central Florida, Lefkowitz has been the developer for several Volusia County projects, including DeBary Woods, Saxon Ridge and Pine Trace. Visit huntingtonvillagefl.com. — Wayne Grant

Buddy LeCour presented his plans for the Ormond Renaissance Condominium, to be located on the former hospital grounds at Sterhaus Drive and Old Kings Road, at the March 12 Planning Board meeting. LeCour is principal owner in the development group, Ormond King Center LLC. Memorial Hospital was demolished in 2012 after Florida Hospital relocated staff and equipment to the new facility on Williamson Boulevard. There were no negative comments at the board meeting; in fact, a couple of audience members sounded like they were interested in buying. “I have a signup sheet in the back,” LeCour said with a laugh. He said he expects the prices to start in the “low two hundreds.” The board approved the project unanimously, and the next step will be City Commission approval of the zoning change. The east portion of the 27 acres will be a conservation area, and a detailed survey was taken of the oak trees on the property. Of 39 historic trees that were located, nine will be removed. “We saved the highest quality trees,” said Steve Spraker, senior planner. There will be 11 buildings, each with 26 units and a ground floor parking garage. LeCour said the first building could be in place next year, and full build-out will be done in four years, “God willing and the recession doesn’t come back.” A six-foot wrought iron fence will surround the property, along with a landscape buffer. LeCour described the architecture as “Spanish Renaissance with an old Florida feel.” He said there will be a “massive green area” and grounds will include a club house and swimming pool. “We’re proud to bring this forward to the community,” he said. A study shows the condos will bring less traffic to the area than the hospital did. Board Chairman Doug Thomas cautioned there could be traffic problems with residents exiting out onto Nova Road, with people wanting to turn left. Planning Director Rick Goss said a study was done and showed there should be no issues. Board member Lewis Heaster commented that when the hospital left, there was a “huge vacuum in the downtown.” “It’ll be a good complement for Ormond Beach,” he said. “I wish you the best of luck.”

“If we are to build a better world, we must remember that the guiding principle is this — a policy of freedom for the individual is the only truly progressive policy.”
I now know genealogy is a lot more than just Googling your last name. Have you ever sat back, and wondered who you were related to? I never have, unless it was about my possible links to Beyonce or hoping that I never accidentally kiss a secondcousin. But there’s quite EMILY BLACKWOOD a crowd of Ormond Beachers who spend years solving the mystery of their own family history (If I could rhyme my entire column, I would). I spent part of my Thursday afternoon in the Ormond Beach Library, sitting in the dark with about 50 other people watching a PowerPoint presentation about using DNA tests to help find your ancestors. The whole atmosphere vaguely reminded me of my time in high school, except I wasn’t pinching myself to stay awake during the lecture. Up until this point, I thought genealogy was done through Google searches and consistently bugging older relatives to tell you stuff. But now you can use your own DNA to track down the rest of the family tree. For me, this turned the whole process from a library-based project

to some sort of Indiana Jones adventure. Maybe the DNA unlocks some sort of family secret that Russian spies have been hiding for centuries! Not likely. According to the speaker, Diahan Southard, DNA alone will not get you far in your research. It’s expensive, and it might tell you nothing at all. Not to mention, getting results can take forever, and decoding the crazy numbers that are on them can take even longer. Ormond Beach couple Kathy and Clyde Stickney have been researching their own history for 20 years. “His ancestors go back to pirates,” Kathy said. “In the Caribbean,” Clyde said. “Around 1720. They were pirates, but they became respectable citizens, and the rest is history.” No, no Clyde, the rest is not history. Being related to actual treasure-hunting, eyepatch wearing pirates means there has to be some of that still somewhere in your soul! Haven’t you ever had the urge to commandeer a ship right out of the Halifax River?! “There’s a tad bit still in him,” his wife assured me. The Stickneys inspired me to discover my own family history. I mean, if they’re related to pirates, maybe there’s some hope of a former president or ancient ruler in my past? What I’ve learned from the genealogy

Kathy and Clyde Stickney, aren’t they just the cutest?
pioneers is that the sky is really the limit. I started off by asking my dear parents what they knew. My mother, who is always in a hurry to leave even though I have no idea where she goes, shouted something about Michigan, followed by, “Maybe we’re French” and ended with, “Ask your father, I don’t have time for this.” My dad, whose brain is equivalent to an encyclopedia of things I generally don’t understand, was a little more helpful. My dad’s history pretty
much stays in Tennessee for a few generations. Before that, he thinks the Blackwoods immigrated from England. His mom’s ancestors, maiden name Massen, are a mix of French and Cherokee. Could this explain my lifelong desire to wear moccasins? But like always, I trusted the Internet to give me what I really wanted. I signed up for a free trail on ancenstry.com and found my dad’s birth certificate, which is helpful because I can never remember how old he is, and my grandparents’ marriage certificate, which was just cool. I think my generation tends to consider genealogy irrelevant because at first glance it isn’t directly related to us (and if it isn’t about us, why do we care?). But ancestry is important because it can have an impact on who you are. I like that my background includes a line of women who know how to make it on their own and from a line of men who know the value of hard work. Knowing that those qualities live within me makes me strive to be a better person.

Sale was not in the cards 7:18 p.m. — First Block of Sycamore Circle. Civil Complaint.. The victim said that two days ago, he sold a 1955 Roberto Clemente Topps baseball card on eBay to the suspect for $865. He said he shipped it in an acrylic card holder. He said the suspect received the card and then claimed he had it assessed and found it to be counterfeit. The victim told him to ship the card back with the paperwork showing it was counterfeit, and he would refund his money. The suspect said he would ship the card back but refused to provide the paperwork. When the victim received a package, it had the acrylic holder but no card. He provided pictures of himself opening the package at the post office and finding only the card holder. He said the suspect opened a dispute with PayPal and the company refunded his money. The victim was then without the card and his money. He opened a dis-
pute with eBay, which said he must file a police report.
March 7
A few beers? 10:43 p.m. — 100 Block of East Granada Boulevard. Drunk Driver. Responding to a call about an impaired driver, officers found the suspect straddling his motorcycle outside the restaurant. The officer approached the suspect and asked what he was doing. The suspect replied, “I’m not sure.” When asked how much he had to drink, the suspect said “a few beers.” The suspect slurred his words, had an odor of alcohol and glassy eyes, and was unsteady on his feet. The suspect then failed a field sobriety test. He said he had been in the restaurant for four hours when they cut him off from alcohol. The restaurant said the suspect had been loud and combative. He was shoving food into his mouth and slamming his hand down on the table. He then started stumbling around the restaurant trying to get to his motorcycle. When he got to his motorcycle, he rode to the next parking lot and then fell over on it. That is when police showed up.
He was transported to Volusia County Branch Jail. His restaurant receipt listed seven fireballs, two Bud Lites, four Ritas and one ABS Citron.
March 9
Heavy light stolen 2:59 p.m. — 700 Block of Airport Road. Theft. The airport manager requested an investigative report in reference to missing and presumably stolen city property. The missing item was an airport light beacon. The manager said the beacon had been at the airport for about 20 years. It was stored in a room in the tower in 2009 after it was replaced. He said he noticed the beacon, which weighs between 175 and 200 pounds, was missing when cleaning the room. The control tower is surrounded by a large fence with an electric gate. Only authorized employees have a scan card for access. The control tower door is secured in the same way. The officer did not notice any forced entry. The manager provided a list of employees who have access to the area, including airport and public works personnel.
March 14
“Hollywood” movie turns out bogus First Block of North Yonge Street. Recov-
ered Stolen Vehicle. An officer was flagged down at a gas station by the victim. He said that at 11 p.m., he was at a truck stop standing next to his towing company vehicle when he was approached by the suspect who was wearing a bounty hunter ID. The suspect asked the victim to pick up a vehicle from an address in Jacksonville and bring it back to the truck stop. The suspect said he was working on a Hollywood movie and needed someone to pick up the vehicle. The victim agreed, so the suspect gave keys to the victim. The victim then drove to Jacksonville and picked up the vehicle. When he returned and got close to the truck stop, he called the suspect. The suspect said he could not take possession of the vehicle because he was going to the hospital. He asked the victim to take it to a secure facility. The victim then became suspicious, thinking that the suspect might have a GPS locator on the vehicle and be able to pick It up from the facility without paying. When he saw an officer, he flagged him down. The officer ran the vehicle through the computer system and found that it was reported stolen out of South Carolina. The officer had the vehicle towed to a lot to be held for fingerprinting.

making history By Jeff Dawsey | Sports Writer
Bud Asher award winner announced Michael Burton, President/CEO of Daytona Beach Baseball, announced the 2015 Hall of Fame inductees along with the first Bud Asher Memorial Award. The inductees are Port Orange Mayor Allen Green; Bob Davis, president/ CEO of Hotel Motel Lodging Association; and lifelong Ormond Beach baseball greats Brett Serbousek JEFF and Colin Gray. Daytona DAWSEY Beach Mayor Derrick Henry is the first recipient of the 2015 Bud Asher Memorial Award. Mayor Green has been involved in the coaching and supporting of the youth for decades in the community, and as a former baseball player he has always understood the need for supporting young people and providing them with a place to play. He has personally contributed and raised money to provide the youth within the community with a place to play. Davis is a longtime promoter of youth sports and has always understood the economic impact that sports activities bring to a community. He has always been the first to reach out and support youth activities coming to our community and is a true pioneer in promoting youth sports. Serbousek and Gray began their baseball careers with Daytona Beach Baseball at age 10, and were named All Americans at ages 12, 14 and 16 by the National Amateur Baseball Federation. They played on six regional championship teams, six World Series teams, and Serbousek traveled to China as a member of the Goodwill Games while Colin played in the International games in Canada. The Mayor Bud Asher Memorial Award goes to an elected official who supports the youth of the community and understands the role that sports can play in the development of young people. Asher, a former mayor, is a member of the Daytona Beach Baseball Hall of Fame. Mayor Henry grew up playing in the city’s recreation programs and has continued to support the youth in his current office. The 31st-annual Awards Dinner and Auction will be held at 4 p.m. Saturday, March 21, at His and Hers Café located at 3510 South Nova Road. Local radio personality, DJ Tremble from 103.3 will serve as master of ceremonies and celebrity auctioneer. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased by calling 846-4672.

Coach Campanella gets 400 The wait is officially over. Seabreeze head coach Anthony Campanella won his 400th baseball game, and it came against rivals, the Mainland Buccaneers, 6-5, in comeback fashion Tuesday, March 17, at the Ormond Beach Sports Complex. “We were stuck on 399 with a three-game skid and the team confidence wasn’t really high, and we almost got no-hit against Deltona, so this was a great win and a good time to get our bats going again,” catcher Jeremiah Wilson said. “We manned up at the end, and got a big win for Coach.” After getting his 399th victory against Matanzas on March 3, Campanella was denied his next win against Taylor and twice against Deltona. “The guys felt the pressure,” he said. “I never mentioned it, but they knew what was going on. Now, that the pressure is gone, we can get back to playing some baseball.” The Bucs didn’t make his monumental win easy at all. There were six lead changes in seven innings of play, the last being the deciding score by Sam Marlatt, who sprinted home from third base after Mainland’s catcher couldn’t retrieve a pitch in the bottom of the seventh inning. Seabreeze trailed, heading into the final inning. “More importantly for me, our guys were resilient the whole game,” Campanella said. “It’s been a struggle these last couple of weeks trying to stay focus, but this was a big district win for us.” Austin Nipper, Chad Bertalli and Jeremiah Wilson each had three hits for the Sandcrabs.
Jett Voegtle makes an acrobatic throw to first base for an out to end the inning. Nipper also had two runs and an RBI, and Bertalli had two RBIs. Pitcher Sam Marlatt got the win for the Crabs. For the Bucs, Logan Brownell and Jacob Franklin each had two hits, and Josh Pittell had a hit and a score. The two teams will rest a day and meet again Thursday, March 19, at Daytona State College.
Rival coaches embrace after a close game that went down to the wire for Campanella’s 400th win.

Shown at the check presentation are Officer Amberly Michaelis; Capt. James Crimins; Chief Henry Osterkamp; Sgt. Jamie Gogarty; Capt. Jesse Godfrey; Charles Moskowitz, of Congregation B’nai Torah Men’s Club; Don Burke, of Mango Sun Café and Grill; and Chuck Weisman, of the Men’s Club.
Officers ready to ride The Police Unity Tour will honor fallen officers. Sgt. Jamie Gogarty said it’s quite an experience to arrive at the National Law Enforcement Officer’s Memorial and Museum in Washington, D.C., with hundreds of other officers after a 250-mile bike ride, called the Police Unity Tour. Officers from throughout the nation will join together in May for the threeday ride from Portsmouth, Virginia, to the monument to increase awareness of law enforcement officers who have died in the line of duty and raise funds to maintain the Memorial and Museum. The significance of the event is very apparent to the rider when they join the other officers and families at the monument. “You really get it,” Gogarty said. Gogarty, who was on the tour last year, said each rider wears a bracelet with the name of an officer who died in the past year. When they arrive at the monument,
they present the family of the officer with the bracelet to show they rode in the officer’s honor. The name of the officers will be inscribed on the monument. Gogarty and three other Ormond Beach police officers, Capt. Jesse Godfrey, Sgt. Lisa Rosenthal and Officer Amberly Michaelis will take part in the tour this year, after raising the necessary $8,000 in total donations since September. Putting them over the top was a pasta dinner at Mango Sun Café and Grill on March 1, organized and promoted by the Congregation B’nai Torah Men’s Club. The event raised $1,120. In addition to seeking donations, the officers have also been training. “We rode 35 miles this morning, dodging the motorcycles,” Godfrey said at the check presentation on March 12 (during Bike Week) at Mango Sun.

After a divorcing and not speaking to each other for a decade, the Braggs finally learned how to make it work. Clint and Penny Bragg’s story start in California in 1987. They met at church, fell in love and got married two years later. Though they did “everything they were supposed to do,” they were divorced before their second anniversary. “We didn’t know how to be married,” Penny Bragg said. “We were not communicating, and I was pulling away into another relationship so I just bailed.” Though Clint tried to reconcile their marriage, Penny’s hard-heartedness kept her from wanting to try anymore. After their divorce, they didn’t speak for 10 years. “There was no email or texting back then,” Penny said. “Maybe that was for our benefit, I don’t know.” Penny said she hit bottom about nine years after their divorce, and had to seek counseling to get her life in order. Part of her therapy was reconciling old broken relationships. Though it took a while to do because she thought Clint hated her, three years later she wrote him a letter. She was very surprised with his response. “About two weeks later her called me,” she said. “There was a voicemail on my answering machine that was his voice, and I was panicked. He basically said he was going to call back one more time at 8 o’clock. The clock was ticking, and I just waited until he called, and instead of all the anger that I feared, he was broken, too. Our conversation was five hours long.” “I was in such shock that she contacted me,” Clint said. “I didn’t want a lot of time to go by. That conversation uncovered a lot of things that gave us ah-ha moments.” Both Clint and Penny admitted their wrong-doings in their previous relationship. Two days later, Clint, who had moved to Florida, sent Penny a letter that read: “There’s one more thing that I need to tell you that I didn’t tell you the other night, and that is I still love you. I’ve always loved you. Would you ever consider reconciliation?” They were remarried in six months and have remained married for 13 years. Both say that communication and understanding why each other does things has been a big part of their success in love. “We stopped the whole tough-girl, tough-boy persona,” Penny said. “We really stripped it back, and based it on our faith. We started realizing that we had a second chance, so we wanted to do it right.” About five years ago, people started asking the Braggs about their story and for advice on their own marriages. That’s where Inverse Ministries was born. A nonprofit organization with a goal to help married couples find reconcilia-
