“There are termites in this building older than Ormond Beach,” Rev. Willie Branch said recently, speaking about the old government building that serves as headquarters for American Legion Post 267. He may be kidding about the termites, but he’s not kidding when he talks about the maintenance required on the historic building at 156 New Britain Ave. that was constructed in 1895. The veterans are finding themselves in a financial bind. They pay a token rent to the city, which owns the building, but their lease requires them to pay 100% of the maintenance. “This building needs some major work,” said Branch, who is post commander. Currently there are electrical issues and deteriorating wood. Being an Ormond Beach Historic Landmark, any exterior changes must conform to the SEE LEGION PAGE 2

COMMUNITY WRITER

LEGION LACKS FUNDS FOR THEIR CHARITY WORK

Jim Bowers, first vice commander, said the financial demands make it impossible for them to fulfill their mission of service to the community. “We can’t support charitable organizations to the level we have in the past,” he said. The post helps organizations such as the Salvation Army, Halifax Urban Ministries and Jerry Doliner Food Bank, and works with the schools to provide meals to needy families at the holidays. They also send students to Boys State and support a Boy Scouts troop. “We used to go to jamborees, but we don’t have money for that anymore,” Bowers said. The charitable work is very important to the members. “The camaraderie is the biggest thing,” Bowers said. “But at the end of the day, it feels really good to know you helped somebody. There’s a certain amount of pride.”

LOSS OF INTERNET CAFÉ HURT FINANCES

Branch said they were doing fine financially until their Internet café, where people paid to play games on computers, was removed. “That created a serious problem for organizations like the

Legion,” Branch said. “We made quite a bit of money from that.” Gov. Rick Scott signed a bill into law in 2013 that made Internet cafes illegal. Opponents had argued the computer games were actually gambling. The city of Ormond Beach ordered the games removed from the building in 2012, amid the rising controversy. The post has also not been raising as much money with their annual big fundraiser, the charity golf tournament. Sponsorships have not come back from the recession. The veterans pay $35 per year for membership, but $21 goes to the national organization to be placed in a pool for grants to help veterans in need. Additionally, membership has been dwindling as they lose World War II veterans. “I’m going to a funeral tomorrow,” Branch said. ‘A STARTLING STATISTIC’

legion is to help veterans find the services they need, and the newest members tend to be Vietnam veterans. “Here’s a startling statistic,” Bowers said. “More Vietnam vets have committed suicide than died during the conflict.” They are not seeing many veterans of the Gulf conflicts, yet, because they are busy raising families, but the members of the post expect them to join in time. The post members hope to get a restructured lease agreement. “The city has a larger budget than we have and it’s their building,” Bowers said.

According to a recent press release from OneBlood, the supply of all blood types has reached extremely low levels due to high usage in area hospitals and lower than normal donations. There is an immediate need for all blood types. Any person who is eligible to donate or who hasn’t donated in some time is urged to contact OneBlood as soon as possible. Blood donations of all types are needed, including platelets, which are critical for cancer patients. Every two seconds someone in the U.S. needs a blood transfusion. Blood that is donated today will likely be transfused into a patient within two to three days. The turnaround is that fast, and the need is constant. The growth in the winter population, coupled with the beginning of spring break, has created a sharp increase in hospital blood usage. Blood donations are critical for all types of medical procedures. Generally healthy people age 16 or older who weigh at least 110 pounds can donate blood. All donors receive a wellness checkup including blood pressure, temperature, iron count, pulse and cholesterol screening.

City of Ormond Beach submits road improvement ‘wish list.’ WAYNE GRANT NEWS EDITOR

T

he city of Ormond Beach recently developed a list of transportation projects that the city would like to see funded in the next 10 years. The Roundtable of Volusia County Elected Officials transportation subcommittee is seeking ways to fund projects throughout the county, and requested that cities come up with a list. The subcommittee asked the cities to identify transportation projects that would help the economy, and would also be supported by residents should a gas or sales tax be proposed to fund the costs. The subcommittee will be working with the River to Sea Transportation Planning Organization. The roundtable, which meets monthly to discuss countywide issues, is made up of one elected official from each of Volusia’s cities and county government. It came into being after the Volusia League of Cities was dissolved last year. The meetings are hosted by the Volusia County Council. Ormond Beach city staff prepared a list of desired projects, and the city commission approved the list at their March 17 meeting. On the list for the downtown area is to add parking to New Britain Avenue from Beach Street to Ridgewood Avenue. This would require taking right of way on the north side of the street, which means properties would lose space between house and street. Stormwater improvements need to be made in that area, and they would be done in conjunction with the work, according to Ted MacLeod, assistant city manager and public works director. He said the residents would lose some space, but would benefit from improved drainage. The theory is that the addition of approximately 50 parking spaces along the street would provide more customers to local businesses. Also on the list is a project that is already on the River to Sea Transportation Planning Organization’s list of projects that should be done in the next 20 years, the

The extension of Hand Avenue to Tymber Creek Road is on the 20-year “to-do” list of the transportation planning organization.

extension of Hand Avenue west to Tymber Creek Road. It would cross above Interstate 95 and there would be no interchange, according to Lois Bollenback, TPO director. “The biggest reason is to design relief for the Granada, I-95 and Williamson intersection, especially as the west develops,” she said. “You can only add so many cars to that area.” Hand Avenue already provides an east-west artery for those wishing to avoid Granada Boulevard. “When you add a parallel road you’re giving drivers another choice,” she said. Other projects on the list were roads that support Ormond Crossings, the planned development on North U.S. 1 that pro-

vides an opportunity for both residential and business growth for Ormond Beach. “We’re looking for great development in the crossings area,” MacLeod said. Other roads outside of Ormond Crossings are in the plan including Pineland Trail. Other items on the list include improvements to the interchange at I-95 and North U.S. 1, where traffic currently sometimes backs up. It would become busier if Ormond Crossings develops. Bollenback said the Florida Department of Transportation is currently studying the interchange. The city also placed street resurfacing on the list for throughout the city.

ROAD WISH LIST 1. Parking along New Britain Avenue. Cost: $650,000. 2. Extension of Hand Avenue to Tymber Creek Road. Cost: $17.5 million. 3. Improvement of intersection of Interstate 95 and North U.S. 1. Cost: $41 million. 4. Ormond Crossing collector roads. Cost: $35.6 million. 5. City street resurfacing. Cost: $250,000.

A site plan for the deserted gas station at the northwest corner of Granada Boulevard and Nova Road has officials optimistic that the area will finally be redeveloped. “One of the great eyesores of Ormond Beach will be gone,” said City Commissioner Rick Boehm at the March 17 City Commission meeting. A site plan was submitted to the city in early March by Boos Development Group, of Clearwater, for a CVS pharmacy that would also occupy the site of the Burger King next door. City Manager Joyce Shanahan said the CVS in the Trails Shopping Center would be relocated there. The site plan is the first stage in a process that could lead to development. A site plan review committee will look over the proposal to check for code requirements, and a neighborhood meeting will also be necessary. The project would eventually go before the Planning Board and the City Commission.

Financing could include county, state and federal funds.

The former gas station on West Granada Boulevard, considered an eyesore by many, may at last be redeveloped.

Young entrepreneur looks for help to ‘share yoga’ Brittny Lowe, owner of Twin Flame, has until April 9 to raise at least $17,777 for her yoga clothing line. EMILY BLACKWOOD COMMUNITY EDITOR

There’s just one thing Brittny Lowe wants for her birthday: to raise enough money to complete her Kickstarter campaign. Lowe, owner of the yoga clothing line Twin Flame, has until April 9 to raise $17,777 to help grow her brand by hiring a team to help her. Right now, Lowe produces her line on a printing press

goals.” With this donation, she also hopes to lease a space for production, purchase more creative tools, and become more involved in the manufacturing process. “As a female entrepreneur I have faced many obstacles up to this point,” she wrote. “Not only obstacles in my business endeavors but obstacles in life. I am aware of the risks and challenges I face as a business owner. I will continue to approach any obstacle with an open mind and heart. I am confident that Twin Flame will continue to shine its light and warmth onto the community. I will always stay true to my ultimate goal of sharing yoga.” With the deadline quickly approaching, and only $3,628 raised at the time of this article, Lowe is asking her community to help her meet her goal. She says it would make for an awesome 27th birthday. Visit kickstarter.com and search for “Twin Flame” to make a donation.

AMES PARK

Ames Park is a 2.2 acre riverfront park. The historic Ames house, 173 S. Beach Street, constructed in 1915, is situated on the property and now serves as the City Attorney’s Office. The home belonged to Dr. Adelbert Ames, former Director of Research at the Dartmouth College Eye Institute, given to him by his father General Adelbert Ames who, along with his wife, spent winters in a small cottage on the south end of the property. The house was one of the original houses listed on the Local Landmarks List created in 1987.

CALENDAR OF EVENTS

There are two major factors that brought Ormond Beach residents Lani and Vincent Faulkner together: the Navy and motorcycles. When Lani Faulkner’s father died, he left her his motorcycle. He had been a chief petty officer in the Navy for 25 years, and even when he retired, he transitioned into a contractor for the military. To Lani, it was like he had never left. She needed help customizing her father’s motorcycle, so her friend directed her to Vincent

“Our goal is to make a person a healthier person. We had one guy that we would invite to come out, and he would show up and leave 10 minutes later. Since then, he’s had knee surgery, lost 70 pounds and is at CrossFit every night. These veterans just want to belong to something again.” Vincent Faulkner

Faulkner’s shop. The chemistry was instant. “We shared the same passions, and I found out he was in the Navy, so that was a plus,” Lani Faulkner chuckled. Together, they shared a desire to serve, especially those who had once served the country. She found the organization Team Red, White and Blue through a group of runners, and immediately got involved. Soon after, she roped her husband in. “Our goal is to make a person a healthier person,” Vincent Faulkner said. “We had one guy that we would invite to come out, and he would show up and leave 10 minutes later. Since then, he’s had knee surgery, lost 70 pounds and is at CrossFit every night. These veterans just want to belong to something again.” Currently, Vincent Faulkner serves as the veterans outreach director for the Daytona Beach Chapter of Team RWB, and Lani serves as chapter captain. “I always felt inferior myself, that I didn’t have anything to offer to our veterans,” she said. “They have a wealth and knowledge we as civilians don’t get to experience. But I realized that their connection to me is so important to

them so they can feel normal. It takes that trust with us in creating their new home.” Vincent Faulkner said that creating a new home outside of the military came with a lot of confusion. He was honorably discharged under medical conditions in 1986 after working on jet engines on a constantly vibrating deck for six years. That environment led to severe nerve damage and bone necrosis, a condition that causes the small bones in his feet to slowly decay. He’s had six surgeries to help combat the chronic pain, but none have been

successful. “The nerves in my feet are hypersensitive,” he said. “When I’m taking a shower, my foot can’t hit water. It’s too painful. But I have to stay functional, there’s a lot of people that still count on me.” Besides his medical conditions, he said the hardest part about transitioning to civilian life was the lack of a consistent schedule. In the Navy, he would wake up every morning to a Plan of the Day, or POD. “You wake up now and you’re like, ‘Jeez, where is the POD?’” He chuckled. “It takes a little while to transition. But one thing you’ll

find in every veteran, is that they always want to do more. They served and they always want to serve.” Lani and Vincent Faulkner are both participating in Team RWB’s Run as One event March 28 to help raise awareness for the types of struggles veterans face, including post-traumatic stress disorder. The race was created as a memorial for Clay Hunt, a veteran who, after suffering from PTSD for some time, committed suicide. “People want to not talk about suicides, but we have an average of 22 vets a day committing it,” Vincent Faulkner said. “It’s not just returning modern-day vets,

it’s our older vets, too. They’ve been fighting for a bit, using alcohol and drugs, and it left them in a bad place. We talk about raising awareness to remove the stigma of PTSD, so people who have it won’t think, ‘How do I get a job? Is the employer going to look at me like I’m a broken toy?’” Tracee Fleming, community outreach director for Team RWB Daytona Chapter, joined to channel her negative energy that came from worrying about her brother’s safety in Afghanistan into something positive. She wanted to be involved in something more personal, rather than just shake a stranger’s hand and thank them

for their service. “A very common misconception about veterans is that they can only fully relate to other veterans,” she wrote in an email. “We may not realize right away that we have much, if anything, in common. “But if we both like to run, we might get an opportunity to sweat together, to encourage each other, to break down some walls and get to know each other just as people. I have met so many wonderful people, that I might never have even been brave enough to talk to, through this organization, and I am so proud of all our members — veterans and civilians alike.”

Welcome to your ‘new’ newspaper Observer ORMOND BEACH OBSERVER

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

The poet Ezra Pound’s philosophy of art was, “Make it new.” He said to take the ancient themes and ideas such as love and mortality and give the reader a new look at them. Making the themes new make them relevant and entertaining and instructive again. It’s human nature to gravitate toward the “new.” We want to know the latest information about the people who live near us. We ask each other about our families and jobs and feel a greater connection with each other because we are up-to-date. We call our weekly collection of “new” information a “new”spaper. On a more superficial level, newness is also important in marketing. My favorite example is Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Although the cups are already the perfect candy, the geniuses at Reese’s decided to come out with a variety of new versions: white chocolate, crunchy, dark chocolate, mini, big cups, unwrapped, etc. Why? Because new is exciting! And I have bought at least one of every variety.

And so, it is with great pleasure that I introduce the “new” Ormond Beach Observer. Following the lead of our sister papers in the Observer Media Group, which is headquartered in Sarasota, we have adopted a new look, designed by Pegie Stark, an insightful consultant and designer who has helped us in our latest step in fulfilling our vision statement, to “innovate and elevate.” The design is inspired by Piet Mondrian, a modernist painter whose work is characterized by rectangles of varying sizes and bright colors. We also have new fonts (all of which were designed in the past few decades, which, in the world of typography, is extremely new) and some tweaks in our standards. For example, photos are given an even greater emphasis than before. We have a new rule: Every face that appears in a photo in the Observer should be no smaller than a dime. If any of you would like to give us feedback on this, I would invite you to keep a dime on your coffee table or nightstand and scroll the dime from page to page over our photos to see if we are zooming in sufficiently on you and your neighbors. Unfortunately, this new standard could mean that we will need to use fewer photos in print, to allow for the best ones to be larger.

How to chase and catch happiness There’s nothing like living under the pressure of a holiday you didn’t even know existed.

EMILY BLACKWOOD COMMUNITY EDITOR

The other day, I heard the morning TV news anchor lady scream about the different ways we could celebrate the International Day of Happiness. I thought, There’s an entire day dedicated to happiness? What are the rules here? What are the consequences if we don’t maintain a sunny demeanor for the full 24 hours? How do I score points? Are there prizes? Suddenly I felt the urge to run, jump, climb, do all of the things that are supposed to make you feel alive. Except skydiving — I don’t need to be that alive. With my mind buzzing in a different directions, I decide to begin my adventure to a place that always makes me happy: the beach. I called my friend, Danielle, and we set off. The sun was shining, the birds were singing, and we

were almost to the beach. Then it hit: the hunger. I had been so amped up about my day of happiness that I totally skipped lunch. Danielle, being the gem that she is, pulled over to the first place she saw. I quickly rushed the waitress through my order. A few bites in, and I started to feel like a human being again. But the moment we stepped outside, the sky turned gray. Gray, gloomy and foggy. My beach day was over. My parade was literally rained on. We tried to revive the anticipation of the day by sitting by the pool and reliving high school memories, but it was no use. The day was done. I mean, it was only 3 p.m., but the day was definitely done. I drove home in a very blue mood wondering why anyone would create a holiday that causes so much pressure. How in just 24 hours was I supposed accomplish what I’ve been trying to get for 22 years? No way. When I made it home, I did some research and found the one thing I was missing. The following is an excerpt from the International Day of Happiness’ official website:

“After years of happiness research, one thing has proved fundamental — the importance of our connections with other people. But modern societies are built as if the opposite was true. We are surrounded by people, yet we feel genuinely connected to almost none of them. The effects are devastating. Social isolation is as potent a cause of early death as smoking; and the epidemic of loneliness is twice as deadly as obesity. We could change this in a day if we all reached out and made at least one positive connection. For the International Day of Happiness, that’s exactly what we’re going to do.” Duh, Emily. Nobody finds happiness when they’re chasing it for themselves. Happiness is like a boyfriend, suntanning or eating a block of cheese: it doesn’t work if you become obsessed. Happiness is about loving your friends and family for the weirdos they are. It’s about remembering that the beach is down the street from your house, and you can try again tomorrow. It’s about appreciating that you have a job that lets you complain about a bad day to an entire city. When you sit back and feel grateful for what you have, great things happen. Email emily@ormondbeachosberver.com.

We want to hear from you. Let us know about your community events, celebrations and family member achievements. Send events to calendar@ormondbeachobserver.com. Send sports events and story ideas to jeff@ormondbeachobserver.com. Send news tips or letters to the editor to editor@ormondbeachobserver.com.

4 QUICK FIXES FOR BEING HAPPY 1. Take a walk. In Ormond Beach, you literally have a million and one places to take a walk. No excuses. 2. Write. I might be a little biased here, but writing is the key to happiness. Putting all your ugly feelings down on paper clears your brain. 3. Sing one of your favorite songs at the top of your lungs. And for my entertainment, please do it in your car, with your windows down, on West Granada Boulevard around noon this Friday so I can laugh and be happy, too. 4. Eat. You might regret it tomorrow, but happiness is about today!

IMPULSE STEALING 4:48 a.m. — 300 Block of West Granada Boulevard. Burglary of a Business. Responding to a burglary alarm, the officer noticed the front window of the business was broken. Bicycles were knocked over inside the business, and a large brick was found inside. A witness said he was waiting for the business next door to open, when he heard someone say, “Can you use a bike? I can get one from the store. Give me a few minutes.” The witness then heard glass break. The owner said his business had been burglarized before. The video showed a male smash the window with a brick. The male then struggled with a bicycle and lifted it out of the window.

MARCH 13

FOLLOW THE MONEY 11:48 a.m. — 1400 Block of West Granada Boulevard. Civil Complaint. The victim said he pulled into the bank drive thru closest to the building and placed a $100 bill in the drawer along with his driver’s

license. The bank teller placed a deposit slip in the drawer and sent it back out to the victim. The victim then completed the deposit slip and sent it back to the teller. The teller then asked the victim for the $100. The victim said he placed it in the drawer and never touched it again. The teller said she never took the money out. The teller suggested that the wind blew the money out of the drawer, because it was pretty windy. The victim backed up his car and checked the area, but did not find the $100 bill. The teller looked inside near the drawer to make sure it didn’t come out inside the bank. The bank manager went outside and assisted in the search for the money. At the request of a police officer, the victim dropped a dollar bill to see which way the wind blew it. The dollar bill fell to the ground and did not move even with the substantial wind. There were no cameras that record what the tellers do, and there were no cameras on the drive-thru lane. The bank manager said the till would be audited at the end of the day, and he would call the victim.

MARCH 15

SOMETIMES LOCKS ARE NOT ENOUGH 10:46 a.m. — 100 Block of Interchange Boulevard. Stolen Vehicle. The victim said his motorcycle had been stolen. He said when he and his friends got back to the motel at

2 a.m., they secured all four of their motorcycles together with a thick cable. He also secured his front tire with a large lock that locks the brake rotor and does not allow the front tire to rotate. When he returned to the parking lot at 9 a.m., he saw that the cable was cut and his motorcycle was gone. There was a small broken piece of plastic from the front fender of the motorcycle. He said the suspects must have tried to roll it and the lock hit the fender. To move the motorcycle, the suspect had to either drag the bike or pick it up. The officer checked the video of a restaurant next door that showed the general area. About 2:30 a.m., a small, dark passenger car pulled in behind the restaurant and turned off its lights. A person is seen walking through the bushes toward the motorcycles. At the same time, a gold Ford Excursion with a large, white, double-axle trailer pulled into the lot and parked. The motorcycles were hard to see because of the distance from the camera. The restaurant manager said a copy of the video would be provided to police.

She said she was contacted by a representative of the Hamm Loan Modification Program claiming they could get her loan modified, the foreclosure stopped, her foreclosure money refunded and her monthly payments lowered. She received a package of forms to complete from a company called Trial Payment Processing, of Laguna Hills, California, and was directed to send a check for $3,036.81. After sending her check, she communicated with her bank, and nothing had happened with her mortgage. When she called Trial Payment Processing and asked questions, they hung up on her. She called again later, and the call automatically went to voice mail. The police officer had the address checked and found that there was a building in that location, but no company. A check of the phone number led to a law firm in Orlando. An attorney at the firm said they get calls from police a few times a year checking on fraud cases. He said they used to have the number but cancelled it, and it has apparently been reissued. He said they have never done any type of property law.

Ears to hear: The story of Easter retold at UBCC The Narrow Way Players are presenting an original musical by Matt McKeown, starting April 1. EMILY BLACKWOOD COMMUNITY EDITOR

H

eld at Mia Dona Market March 21, the first ChariTea event raised money for the local chapter of Dining with Women,a global giving circle that funds grassroots programs working in developing countries to fight gender inequality. The event was hosted by Little Blog Dress Media and The High Heel Coalition owner, Darlynn Tacinelli. “I want to do charitable events that are uncommon for this area,” she said. Rachel Samson, chapter founder of Dining for Women, said that her group meets at someone’s home every other month and has a potluck-style dinner. Then they take the money that they would have used going out to eat, and they give it to a charity. The next event is Aug. 29 at Mia Dona Market. — EMILY BLACKWOOD

The members of the United Brethren in Christ Church are no strangers to miracles. Due to spinal meningitis, Musical Director and Associate Pastor Matt McKeown has been deaf in his right ear since he was 18 months old, until his hearing was miraculously regained during a worship service in 2003, he said. He had just finished a skit in which he played a deaf man. “It freaked us all out,” he said. “We stopped the service. My ear still works today, and there were a coupled hundred people in the service to witness. It was very unnerving.” Because of this experience, McKeown said he has a special connection to people who have unexplained things happen to them. It’s why the song “All I Know” from the upcoming performance “Gravedance” is his favorite. “It’s song about a blind man who gets healed,” he said. “It’s special to me.” McKeown wrote all 10 songs for the Easter musical being put on by the Narrow Way Players, a drama group at UBCC. Together with Deronda Meyer, the writer of the

original script, “Gravedance” was written from a perspective not usually seen in typical Easter play. “It’s about Jesus, but you really never see Jesus,” McKeown said. “It is difficult to give a fresh perspective of Easter. The story is the story. It’s the story of how Jesus had an affect on lives. You see him briefly, but it’s more about how lives changed because of him.” Ormond Beach residents Tree and Bill Hazard both have parts in the play. Tree Hazard has a small singing role, and Bill Hazard plays Micah, a man who’s struggling with forgiveness after he discovers his wife hasn’t been faithful. The couple has been acting on and off since high school. “Mostly off,” Bill Hazard laughed. “We met in a song and dance at Seabreeze in the ’70s. There was a reunion 10 years after that, and we started seeing each other.” They’ve been married for 27 years, and Bill Hazard said it’s

important for them to still share a common interest and activity. “It’s nice doing things together,” he said. “Everybody is so split up. It’s nice to come together and do something.” McKeown said characters like Micah, and their struggles, are the main focus of the play. They used a Bible character that is often not discussed, as one of the maitargets of the story. “Zacchaeus, a tax collector that cheated his clients, is central to the story,” he said. “To me, he’s one of the best examples of a changed life. He pays back everyone he stole from four times the amount he stole. That’s a big deal to me. It was Deronda’s ideas to bring him in.” The play is directed by Clark Adams, and opens at 7:30 p.m. April 1 at United Brethren in Christ Church.

Watch those water bills. That’s what Adam Landis, of Ormondby-the-Sea, would tell you. He came home to a delinquent bill of $906.59 in November 2013. He suspects a delinquent water meter was to blame, but the city suspects his lawn irrigation. Landis uses city water for his lawn sprinklers. Landis travels for months at time, and had his water bill taken out of an account. So, he was very surprised to arrive home to the huge bill. “If I was guilty of anything, it was not looking at the bills,” he said. He previously lived in Maine, where drinking water came from wells, so the water bill was something he never had to consider. Landis said it doesn’t seem possible that his lawn could have been watered that much. Water bills in 2013 show usage as much as 70,000 gallons per month. “If I used that much water my grass would be dead,” he said. “It would come bubbling out of the ground.” He has reports from his lawn care company that do not show overwatering, and a note from a neighbor stating that his sprinklers only ran during the approved water hours in the early morning. But the city has a form, called “Water Leak Facts” that show thousands of gallons can be

lost from a small leak. Landis suspects that the reason the city is currently replacing all of the meters in the city is because they have a defective design, called meter rocking, that causes bad readings. “They can’t replace them fast enough,” he said. Kelly McGuire, city finance director, said the meters are being replaced because they are 20 to 30 years old. Landis’ water meter was replaced in December 2013, and a test showed the meter was defective. He said his water problems were fixed for 2014. However, McGuire points out his readings throughout 2014 were still erratic, going up and down. Landis said a small leak was found that was causing the erratic readings in 2014. McGuire said they have no way of knowing what caused the high water usage in 2013. “We think it had to do with irrigation,” she said. “We can’t say because we weren’t monitoring it.” People should watch their water bills each month, McGuire said. If there is usage that can’t be explained, they will often issue a courtesy adjustment to their bill for that month. She said if a person gets a high bill, a technician can check for a defective meter. “If you get a high (water) bill, call right away,” McGuire said.

Baseball: my favorite ‘present’ time?

Allison Lydecker holds her sister, Caroline, who is still thinking about how to respond.

A FAMILY ON TRACK

Have you ever heard of five sets of siblings on one team? That’s the case at Father Lopez. JEFF DAWSEY SPORTS WRITER

W

atching a Father Lopez Catholic High School track meet, you will quickly realize that a lot of the girls look a lot like each other. That’s because they’re related. There are five sets of sisters on the team. “I love having siblings on the team,” coach Sue O’Malley said. “We treat everyone on the team as brothers and sisters to each other; we are brothers and sisters of God, but having all of them leads to sibling rivalries and taking it to a new level of competition amongst each other.” Each set comes with a unique story and personality. Here is a window into each of them.

CAROLINE AND ALLISON LYDECKER

The Lydeckers are the only siblings who share the same event, the long jump. Before getting to Lopez, Caroline promised Allison that she was going to be the aggravating sister to her around her friends, but Allison quickly won the war, getting all her friends and Caro-

line’s to call her “Carl.” Allison also hugs and kisses Caroline on the cheek all the time and bugs her at school. When the two finally get time away from each other at home, Caroline goes into her room, shuts door and binges on Netflix. Allison considers Caroline to be weird around her boyfriend. Caroline says that Allison keeps her boyfriend away from her. On Caroline, who is currently single, dating in the future, Allison says, “Bless the soul that ever dates Carl.” ADRIENNE AND BRIANNE YARYAN

“It could’ve been worse.” That’s their slogan. All situations could be worse. They’ve experienced some bad ones, like Brianne spilling coffee all over Adrienne’s car on the way to school. What happened afterward? She went to school smelling like mocha, because “it could’ve been worse.” Always playing on the same teams, the two enjoy each other’s company, which is characterized by constant jokes about each other and frequent, excessive food bonding. “We encourage the other one to keep eating, so we don’t feel

hen I took this job as the sports writer for the Observer, one of the things I was not looking forward to was covering baseball games. Of the gazillions of games of other sports I had watched in my lifetime before taking the job, when it comes to baseball, I had watched a grand total of one: My best friend compelled me to watch Game 7 of the 2012 World Series, after St. Louis and the Texas Rangers supposedly put together a magical Game 6. I never thought about watching any of my school games, and would’ve dared a friend to ask me to watch them play a city game. I hated baseball. I use to say that my torturers, instead of pulling out my eye balls, could torture me by forcing me to drink milk and watch baseball all day. But, after covering two games so far, things have changed. First, I seem to get a kick out of all the players in the dugout yelling random encouragements to their teammates at bat. It took me half the game to get over Mainland’s Jacob Tilghman, who often changes his voice and yells things like, “Let’s go, 1-1; we need this one,” or “Alright, Six. Get us one on base,” to get in the opposing pitcher’s head. Then, when a player strikes out or grounds out, the entire team embraces him and assures him he’ll get the next one. To add to the sportsmanship, the “clunk” sound of the ball pounding the catcher’s mitt for a strike is like the beginning of Beethoven’s “Moonlight Sonata.” After all the years where I cringed on my couch at the ESPN highlights of a 1-0 game, pitching has become my favorite part of the sport; I love the pursuit of a no-hitter or a perfect game. I’ve grown to love a lot about baseball, thanks to the Flagler Palm Coast Bulldogs, Matanzas Pirates, Seabreeze Sandcrabs and the Bucs. After attending their rivalry games, I’ve even accepted the warmup time between innings as a social period. I know I may be a generation or two behind, but I’m here to declare that baseball, American’s favorite pastime, is ... growing on me. What’s your favorite baseball memory? Or, do you know of a great story about a local player I should be writing about? If so, email me at jeff@ormondbeachobserver.com. Follow me on Twitter at @pcosports.

run her down and shower her with my love.” Corrin Harris

PAIGE AND REESE WARD

Paige loves to provoke the younger Reese, while she’s training just to get under her skin by yelling at her. When she’s not provoking her, Paige honors her role as the big sister, helping Reese with her homework and cracking her back just to annoy her. Reese gets revenge on her sister by annoying the boys who try to date her. “In order for those boys get to her, they have to pass through me first,” Reese said. “It’s not that I don’t want her to have a boyfriend; I just want her to have the right boyfriend.” While the two don’t see each other at school much, when they meet, Paige touches her on the face, in a blessing manner, or yells out, “I love you, Reesey,” and depending on how their day goes, after school on the way home, they jam out to some music. EMILY AND MEGAN WILSON

The other siblings agree that these two, Emily and Megan Wilson, are the closest. While they admit that they argue all the time, they also say that their reconciliation comes quickly. While in speech class, they chose to write speeches about one another, thanking and expressing

what the other means. Emily, the older of the two, cried upon hearing Megan’s speech, but Megan claims she never cries. While that may be true, she did say she cried when she saw her sister get hit by an SUV after she was running from a loose pit bull a month ago. After Emily recovered and was ready to run again, she claims that

Megan stole her race, but she says that she wasn’t aware Emily cared to run it. While the two don’t see eye to eye on that issue, Emily does credit Megan for motivating her to cut eight minutes off her cross country time this past season, so the two continue to motivate and be each other’s best friend.

For the Harrises, boys are off limits, according to Corrin, the oldest. She intimidates and keeps them away from McKenzie. The two are on the track and dance team, and since they share a room, it’s a little more difficult to separate from one another. That still doesn’t stop them from trying to, seeing they get home and attempt to get as far away from each other as possible. When they frequently see each other at school, McKenzie tries to avoid Corrin and run the other way, but Corrin chases her down and messes with her. “I just like to run her down and

shower her with my love,” Corrin said. The constant of all the siblings is that the oldest usually bothers the younger sister the most. Being the big sister and the first athlete to finish her events, Corrin actually enjoys staying around and rooting for McKenzie during her events. Another reason McKenzie loves to have her sister around is because she doesn’t have to worry about waiting for my mom to pick her up. Most of the girls like that about the older sister.

Mainland athletes crowned champs The boys’ Buccaneers’ track and field team took second at the Five-Star Conference track meet Thursday, March 19, in Port Orange. Mainland’s speed led to the top-two finish. Adrian Killins, one of the state’s fastest runners, added to his collection of 100and 200-meter dash wins on the season with times 10.68 and 21.84. Killins also led Mainland in both the 4x100 and 4x400 relay teams that took first place. The 4x100 team also featured Wilfred Taylor, Meiko Dotson and AJ Westbrook. The 4x400 team was Latavies Sylvester, Bryan Gregory, Tyree Bostic and Killins. Westbrook also won first place in the high jump. The Lady Bucs took fifth place with two individual winners.

Native American festival turns 25 The event features dancing, music, storytelling, crafts and wildlife and continues to grow, organizer says. EMILY BLACKWOOD COMMUNITY EDITOR

Though Ray Probart does not have a distinct relation to a Native American tribe, he finds the culture and traditions fascinating enough to dress the part. Wearing his colorful outfit that was created by himself with the help

of a few friends, he makes sure that the butterfly is a part of the ensemble. “It is my messenger,” he said. Probart was just one of thousands of people who came to the 25th-annual Native American Festival held at the Rockefeller Gardens and the Casements March 20 through 22.

The event included traditional dancing, dress, music, storytelling, wildlife, artifacts and handmade crafts. According to event organizer Jim Sawgrass, it’s the symbols like tepees that entice people to come check it out. “One reason we get large crowds is because of our visibility,” said Sawgrass,who has been with the festival since it started. “Once I set up those tepees, that’s all I have to do. Every year we go bigger and bigger.”

Harry Little Bird passed on the culture of his North Cheyenne ancestors to his 3-year-old son, Harry Little Foot IV.

Thanks to a $1,500 donation of food from BJ’s Wholesale Club in Port Orange, Halifax Urban Ministries was able to replenish its food supply after a recent shortage. The donation came in March 13, after HUM had to reduce service to some families in its homeless prevention program, Feed-a-Family. The program supplies about 2,700 families each month with a 40pound bag of groceries. “This large donation of nonperishable food by the BJ’s in Port Orange will help many hungry families make ends meet and is more than we dreamed of, so much that we needed to send two vans to pick up their generous contribution!” Tianna Harris, executive administratormanager of homeless prevention, said in an email. According to HUM’s press release, the number of people living below the poverty level in the local community is at an all-time high, as is the amount of food HUM provides to its struggling neighbors. As HUM increases the number of families it serves, the percent of donated food in each package is smaller. As a result, HUM is forced to purchase more food for each package it provides. “At BJ’s, we take great pride in actively working to improve our local communities,” said Lisa Barone, general manager of the BJ’s Wholesale Club in Port Orange. “Hunger prevention is a major focus at BJ’s and through community partnerships with Halifax Urban Ministries, together, we’re able to provide nutritious food to the

Brandon Earle and Shelldon of the Daytona Tortugas show students the bookmark that will help them earn free baseball tickets.

PRESENTS

The Daytona Tortugas’ mascot, Shelldon, stopped by Ormond Beach Elementary on March 17 to promote the Hit the Books program. Escorted by Media Specialist Tracey Mikos, Administrative Assistant Trish Scuteri and his handler, Brandon Earle, Shelldon went to Leslye Grossmann’s and Tammy Every’s second-grade classrooms to speak to students about the importance of reading. The turtle challenged students to read each night, and handed out bookmarks to record their reading progress. If they complete their task, they’ll win two free tickets to a Daytona Tortugas baseball game. According to the Tortuga’s website, this year’s designated “reading nights” games are May 24 and May 31. In 2014, approximately 31,000 students participated in the program. Shelldon and Earle also recorded a brief commercial for the school’s morning news program, and were interviewed by fourth-grade news anchor Molly Bronson.

... and visits the hospital MASCOT AT FHMMC The Daytona Tortugas stopped by Florida Hospital Memorial Medical Center in Daytona Beach on March 11 to donate seven boxes of shirts, hats, grocery bags, baseballs and foam fingers. The local minor league baseball team is supporting the upcoming mission trip for the five Florida Hospitals in Volusia and Flagler counties. The hospitals plan to send a team of employees to the Dominican Republic from April 26 to May 3 to perform a medical mission and build a church in a rural village. The team will

partner with four pastors to host medical clinics at their church locations. Linda Misko, Florida Hospital Memorial Medical Center education manager, recently returned from Dominican Republic, where she noticed that many of the children had no toys or shoes. She said they will be grateful for the clothing and baseballs. “Many times, kids in our country are choosing between Nike and Converse, but there, it is between shoes and no shoes,” Misko said. “It really tugs at the heartstrings.” To donate, call 231-3189.
