Bird feeders can attract bears.

Contact with bears likely to continue in the future Recommendations from the state wildlife commission to remove food sources worked for one neighborhood.

Bears became such a common sight in the Tomoka View neighborhood last year, that at the Halloween party, they handed out bear whistles provided by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission.

Resident Carolyn Hoffman said they felt better with the kids having whistles if they were going to go trick-or-treating.

“They were all blowing them when they left,” she said. “It was a noisy Halloween.”

Many Ormond Beach residents have either seen bears or heard about bears in their neighborhood. The FWC is currently conducting a statewide census, and an official report on bear population and growth will be available next summer, according to spokesman Greg Workman. The agency is aware of the frequent sightings in Ormond Beach and have had meetings with residents. “We know there’s been a lot of activity there in the past 12 months,” Workman said.

Carolyn Hoffman’s husband, Harley, president of the Tomoka View/Tanglewood Civic Association, said during the past year and a half there were 50 bear sightings in the Tomoka View neighborhood.

“Some may have been the same bear but both large bears and cubs have been seen at one time or another,” he said.

He said they have had several meetings with officials from the FWC. He said they followed their suggestion of having a cooperative neighborhood program to deny the bears a food source, and so far it has worked. “We have not had sightings for several weeks,” he said recently.

The residents take in bird feeders and pet foods, and put garbage out on the morning of pickup rather than the night before. They keep anything the bears might eat stored inside.

Carolyn Hoffman said that a year ago

He really made himself at home. He would lie on his back and shake the feeder.

Carolyn Hoffman, resident

she looked out the window and saw a bear pulling down bird feeders she had hung from a line stretching across the backyard.

“He would go over and get a drink from the bird bath and then go back to the feeders,” she said. “He really made himself at home. He would lie on his back and shake the feeder. He did not leave until he got every bit.”

The bear eventually jumped over a fence and disappeared into the woods.

Workman said bears passing through a neighborhood are not a concern, but if bears are lingering, people should notify FWC. “We can figure out why they are sticking around and offer advice,” he said.

“We don’t want bears lingering in neighborhoods, so proper trash storage is imperative.”

If there is unusual behavior such as a bear breaking into an enclosure, the resident should call FWC immediately, he said.

According to information provided by the FWC, the black bear is one of Florida’s conservation success stories. There were only several hundred in the 1970s and there are more than 3,000 today.

In 2012, FWC commissioners approved the removal of the black bear from the state list of threatened species and created a new rule that makes it illegal to injure or kill a bear or possess or sell bear parts.

Black bears in Florida may not be taken as nuisance wildlife.

power couple By Wayne Grant | News Editor

Costellos enthusiastic about coming year Fred Costello returns to the House, while wife, Linda Costello, is the new chairman of the county school board.

When Fred Costello was told that his wife, Linda, was also named a person to watch for 2015, he laughed and said, “I’m going to be watching her, too.”

He said it’s a unique situation to have a husband, who is a state representative, and wife, who is school board chairwoman.

“Hopefully it will benefit Volusia CounFred Costello ty,” he said. “We can look at things from both a state and local perspective.”

Costello, a Republican and former mayor of Ormond Beach, is returning to state government after serving a term as representative from 2010 to 2012. He is also a dentist with a practice in Ormond Linda Costello Beach.

He said it felt good to get back to Talla-

hassee, and the friends he made in 2010 are now in leadership positions.

“Tallahassee is largely about relationships,” he said. “You can get a bill heard if you have credibility. I have a known track record. They know I stand up for what’s right.”

Costello said legislative priorities will be the environment and education.

“Education is the No. 1 economic development tool,” he said, “To bring businesses to Florida we have to make education a top priority.”

He is on the Education Appropriation Committee, and hopes to use that position to bring more state money to Volusia County. He said money is unfairly withheld from the county because of a relatively low cost of living. He said the county deserves more money because of the growth in the number of students.

He said on his personal agenda are tax and pension reform, which he said are multiyear projects.

“They require a lot of heavy lifting and will not be easy to accomplish.”

For pension reform, he said the state requires a certain amount of tax dollars beset aside for pensions for employees

in hazardous positions. He believes the amount should be negotiated in collective bargaining.

Linda Costello: ‘The sky’s the limit’

Linda Costello said she was excited to be elected chairwoman of the Volusia County School Board, and she’s looking forward to the new year.

“I’m calling it the board of opportunity,” she said recently. “It’s new and fresh.

There are three new people and there’s a lot of enthusiasm. The sky’s the limit.”

Costello was elected to the board in 2012 and is serving a term until 2016. She represents District 4, which includes areas of Ormond Beach, Holly Hill and portions of Daytona Beach and DeLeon Springs.

She said it’s her responsibility to empower the other members of the board to do the best for the students.

“I want to make sure all members have a voice,” she said.

She wants to help the board clearly set goals and establish a system of accountability.

She said the main goal will be to spur academic achievement so that Volusia County becomes an “A” district. Last year,

the Florida Dept. of Education gave Volusia County a “C” rating.

“We must raise the academic performance of lower performing schools,” she said. “The state primarily looks at progress, achievement and learning gains.”

Costello said she would like to see more career academics, that is, study related to specific professions, in the middle schools. In the past, these courses of study have been concentrated more in the high schools.

“There are some in the middle schools,” she said. “I would like to see it enhanced.”

As far as new standards, Costello said she wants to make sure teachers have the professional development they need to teach the standards so they can help the students succeed.

A new practice was adopted last year in which juniors and seniors who are academically eligible can take classes at Daytona State University, and get a head start on higher education.

In response to this, Costello said that it’s going to be very important for guidance counselors and parents to make the best choices for each student to help them succeed.

JUST BEACHY By Wayne Grant | News Editor

City, county officials address beach access Building parking lots, opening approaches and walking across State Road A1A are sure to be discussed next year.

One of the biggest topics in Volusia County has always been access to the beach.

Volusia County government is actively looking for available land for parking to improve that access, according to Jamie Seaman, deputy county attorney.

It’s her job to keep an eye out for property that could be purchased.

The most recent purchase was the Argosy Motel, north of Granada Boulevard, where a parking lot with 56 spaces will be built after the buildings have been demolished.

Seaman said the county is not looking at properties north of Granada Boulevard anymore, because they want to spread out the access.

“We have 40 miles of beach,” she said.

She said they are currently looking at six properties south of Granada Boulevard in Ormond Beach, but she doesn’t know if the county will be able to reach an agreement with any of the owners.

If an agreement is made, it must be approved by the County Council.

Council Chairman Jason Davis said the county has $10 million available in the general fund for buying beach property. He said now that it has become known that the county is looking for property, he believes landowners are raising their prices.

Some people oppose buying beachside land, because it takes it off the tax roll.

Davis emphasizes that the beach is a county park, managed by the county for use by the citizens, so access is important.

How many beach approaches should be open in Ormond?

City Commissioner Troy Kent also feels strongly about beach access, and plans to continue his effort to open more beach approaches in 2015.

Photos by Wayne Grant

The “closed” sign is often seen in the summer because of soft sand.

“The Seminole approach is on my radar,” he said. “It’s important to open it.”

He said if Ormond Beach controlled the beach, all seven ramps in the city limits would be open. In 2014, four were open, according to Ray Manchester, deputy chief of Volusia County Beach Safety.

Kent said closing the beach approaches have hurt the businesses of Ormond Beach.

“If they shut down the Flagler Avenue approach, it would kill New Smyrna Beach,” he said. “That’s what happened to Granada.”

Manchester said that the beach approaches now open were chosen because they are at intersections with street lights and are spread out.

A vote by the County Council is required to open a new approach. The cost of operating toll booths and traffic concerns are often factors in the council discussions.

Manchester pointed out that

all approaches are open in January and February, when there are no toll booths, unless closed by high tides. The winter beach can be very drivable.

In the summer, soft sand washes in and builds up along the beach, making driving hazardous. In the winter, northeast storms cause wave action that sweeps away the soft sand, leaving a hard-packed surface.

Access from west side of the street an important issue

Off-beach parking discussions include the issue of walking across State Road A1A, if the parking is west of the road.

Ormond Beach city staff is currently working on a project that could improve access from the west side.

City Engineer John Noble said staff has proposed pedestrianactivated lights at three pedestrian crossings. Two of them would be north of Granada Boulevard, and the other would be at Andy Romano Beachfront Park.

High tides make can beach driving impossible.

The problem is that cars often do not stop when pedestrians are waiting at a pedestrian crossing, even though it is required by state law. They are marked by signage.

Noble and city staff think a new design, where pedestrians can activate a flashing light, will encourage drivers to stop.

He said the FDOT is currently reviewing the proposal.

CALENDAR OF EVENTS JANUARY

Lori Tolland spends her time giving back — and she wants you to do the same.

Tolland has many roles. She is a mom of seven, serves on many local boards and recently went back to her job as a nurse.

To say she’s a busy woman would be an understatement.

“Back in the day, I didn’t require much sleep,” Tolland said. “I would tuck the kids into bed, and stay up till 3 in the morning doing my work. I was very fortunate to be able to stay at home.”

Tolland took her role as a stay-at-home mom for 22 years as a blessing, and used the extra time she had to set an example for her kids. While they were enrolled in Father Lopez Catholic School, she was chairwoman of board of trustees, and helped moved the school in a $30 million project to its current location on LPGA Boulevard. She also helped the school achieve dual enrollment through Daytona State University. She also served on the Embry Riddle Eco Athletic Advisory Board for eight years, and also on the Halifax Foundation Board for a few years.

“I felt like it was my duty to do the volunteer stuff because there were a lot of people that couldn’t because they had to work,” Tolland said. “This sounds really kooky, but it’s really my belief that it’s important to show your kids how important it is to give back. I figured the best way was for me to give back is wherever my kids were at.”

Tolland currently serves on the Ormond Beach Leisure Services Board, she’s a member of the Garden Club of the Halifax Country and is heavily involved in her church, Prince of Peace. And with most of her kids out of the house, five years ago she decided to go back to work as a nurse.

“I have a lot of respect for the moms that didn’t have the ability to do what I

did,” Tolland said. “Now that I’m back at work, it’s hard to juggle. But I really feel like nursing is a calling; it really is a service, a ministry, whatever you want to call it. I just feel very blessed.”

Though she is currently working at Twin Lakes Surgery Center, Tolland will make a switch to Halifax Hospice Center in February 2015. Also among her personal goals, is completing the first community garden in Central Park in March.

“For the first one we’re going to keep it simple,” Tolland said. “We’ll have 37 raised beds that people can lease. The second one will probably be on the other side of the lake by the environmental center. I’m trying to plant the seed, but it’s not definite. Maybe it can be a butterfly garden or something for the kids.”

Through her position on the Ormond Beach Leisure Services Board, Tolland has

been able to put the right people together to get things done.

“Having seven kids, you know everybody in the town,” Tolland said. “Somehow I’m able to get the right people together. I always keep pushing beautification things. It’s my pet peeve. It’s just that sometimes things I think are important are not every one else’s priorities. But I’m looking at all this other lame stuff, and I’m like, ‘You know what? We can do this.’”

Though Tolland describes the projects she’s been a part of as just “little things,” Ormond Beach residents take notice. Always humble, she credits the work to the other community members and leaders.

“I think we do a lot of good things,” Tolland said. “Look at Airport Road and Nova Park. A lot of it is because we have Robert Carolin in place as director of leisure services, and there are commissioners in place that all want the same thing.

And of course, we have Ed Kelley. We have everyone in a good place to do all these good things.”

One of those good things was the renovation of the greenhouse at the Ormond Memorial Art Museum and Gardens. The project brought together a lot of organizations and businesses that lowered the cost.

All because Tolland knew whom to call.

“There’s a lot of people in this community that want to help and give back,” Tolland said. “All you have to do is ask them.”

Up next on her agenda for 2015, Tolland plans to help the garden club with redoing an area in the museum’s gardens near the cottage where parents can relax while kids participate in the museum’s activities, so Tolland and other members want to help make it a place for moms to relax.

“We’ve got a lot of little gems that people don’t even know about,” Tolland said. “It’s all little stuff, but all the little things make Ormond Beach a great place to live.”

more expansion By Emily Blackwood | Community Editor

New chamber president predicts big things Bill Navarra looks forward to bigger and better community events and more growth for Ormond Beach.

Starting Jan. 1, Bill Navarra will be taking over as the president of the Ormond Beach Chamber of Commerce. Growing membership, distributing scholarships and expanding community events are a few of the big items on his to-do list.

“We came up with a fantastic event this year, the Corporate Challenge,” said Navarra, who previously served on the chamber board as the vice president of community events. “We just want to make everything larger and greater. King of the Grille we want to make larger. The Annual Banquet, we’ve got an incredible speaker coming in, and we moved to Oceanside Golf Course. It’s really going to be a better event.”

With experience in planning and executing events, Navarra was excited to learn that he would be able to do more as the chamber president.

“It’s exciting” Navarra said. “It’s something I’m really passionate and involved with.”

Outside of the chamber, Navarra has

been a broker for Realty Pros Assured for seven years. He’s felt the benefits of being a chamber member through his own business.

“I believe it’s a stronghold,” Navarra said. “It’s a way to really give back to the community to have our business involved with the chamber.”

After growing up in Daytona Beach, and moving to Ormond Beach when he was 18, Navarra has really seen the community change for the better. The races, Bike Week and the ability to boat when he has down time, are a few things that have kept him in the area.

“I just love the town,” Navarra said.

“It’s very exciting to see the change and the growth here. I love the access to the ocean.”

Though Ormond Beach is still dealing with the effects of the recession and failed businesses, Navarra has high hopes for the city’s future.

“In my 35 years living here, I’ve never seen anything like it,” Navarra said. “It’s

really exciting to own my business, and see the changes happen here. It’s been a slow growth, but it’s nice to see the town rising.”

One of the major improvements he’s noticed is the downtown area of Granada Boulevard.

“There’s great restaurants, social hangouts,” Navarra said, “Dunn’s Attic — all of these great little entities in this Ormond hub is exciting.”

According to Navarra’s perspective, North U.S. 1 is next on the list in terms of development.

“Google is taking people through U.S. 1 as a way to Daytona and Ormond Beach,” Navarra said. “So that area needs to get a makeover.”

With all these projects in the works, Navarra is exciting to get moving with the help of his team.

“The foundation that we’ve built, the group is working,” Navarra said. “We’ve got a great executive director, Rick Fraser, and we’ve got great past presidents. I just

That was matched by the city of Ormond Beach and Volusia County, adding up to $60,000 that will be added to the FDOT grant.

Farmer said the corridor is important not only because it’s the gateway to the city, but because it could lead to the development of Ormond Crossings, a planned residential and business community that

has yet to get started.

“That’s one of the main goals,” she said. “It’s been 11 years since the idea of a mixed-use business park first came up.”

She said development of Ormond Crossings could create a demand for consumer goods and retail stores.

“You might see a drug store or a grocery store,” she said.

Other changes will appear gradually

as an agreement between the city and county takes effect. The highway cuts through a patchwork of county and city land, but the two governmental agencies have agreed on the city applying its codes throughout the area.

Last year, Ormond Beach and Volusia County made an Interlocal Service Boundary Agreement, which will allow the city to apply its codes to businesses along the corridor. City staff is currently working on changes to the city’s comprehensive plan so they can take effect.

Residential areas in county jurisdictions will not be affected.

There is a separate section in the interlocal agreement for the undeveloped lots that sometimes have itinerant vendors during the motorcycle events. After five years, the itinerant vending will not be allowed on properties that do not have a permanent business.

Members of the North U.S. 1 Coalition have said they hope the landowners will build permanent businesses. Farmer said vacant land is sometimes not cared for, but if there is a business, it’s well maintained and landscaped.

Permanent, year-round businesses have been grandfathered in, and will be able to continue their current practices, including motorcycle events.

North U.S. 1 will be an area to watch in the coming year, as changes will be visible to anyone who drives it. The medians will be beautified thanks to funding granted by the Florida Department of Transportation. The funds will be supplemented with money raised by the North U.S. 1 Coalition, a group of about 30 businesses and concerned citizens committed to improvement of the corridor.

Peggy Farmer, leader of the coalition, recently said that FDOT has increased their grants for the medians from $500,000 to $750,000. The work will begin at Interstate 95 and go south.

“The landscaping was going to stop at Hull Road and now it will go all the way to Airport Road,” Farmer said.

She said at Airport Road, the project can hook up with reuse water and save money on irrigation.

Also, the money will now be available in time for the work to begin in 2015. Previously, it was scheduled for 2016.

She expects the city to start drawing up plans for the medians in January.

“We’re excited that the DOT is getting on board with this project,” Farmer said.

“We hope by the end of 2015, it will all be done.”

Last year, the coalition raised money among members and donated $20,000

The vicious cycle of a new year Procrastinating till 2015 is great — until it’s 2015.

There’s something magical about a new year. Starting back at the beginning of the calendar means the world is open to endless possibilities.

In 2015, I’ll expand my cooking skills, travel out of the country and finally ride the bike that’s been rusting in my backyard. Slowly, but surely, I’ve been using my own 2014 laziness to come up with things that I’d much EMILY BLACKWOOD rather wait till 2015 to do. Some items include: — Donating my old clothes to local thrift stores — Go to the gym at least five times a week — Start a blog — Get Bear used to brushing his teeth every night (his breath might kill you) — Wake up at 6 a.m.

— Read through all the books on my book shelf — Attempt to rid my apartment of Bearhair build up — Respond to all my work emails (sorry guys, I’m slacking) — Somehow magically become so prepared and organized that 2015 becomes the greatest year of my life that eventually

leads to me meeting Oprah

No pressure right?

I was so willing to commit to doing all these wonderful things because I didn’t have to start until next year. And in my mind, next year was like a million years away, so naturally I woke up this morning in a panic. 2015 was here, and there was no going back.

No longer could I just daydream of waking up before the sunrise, with a smile on my face and a fresh cup of coffee in my hand, ready to conquer the day. Now I had to live it. And waking up at noon with tangled hair and a frown on my face from realizing that I was out of coffee wasn’t exactly how I wanted to start this year off.

All my life I’ve been the type of person whose whole day could be ruined by a bad morning. If I was late, messy or out of sorts during the first part of my day, then that was it. Day over. I would willingly jump into the downward spiral because trying to turn things around seemed way too hard.

But it is 2015, the year I meet Oprah.

Maybe that’s enough of a reason for change.

I took a deep breath (which I immediately regretted because I was sitting too close to Bear’s mouth), and told myself I was going to make today the best day it could be. First stop, coffee.

Happy 2015, Ormond Beach.

WHAT I LEARNED FROM 2014 Each year, I like to take some time to remember the big lessons from this year, in hopes that I won’t have to learn them again.

1) The best relationships start out as friendships. Even if that friendship’s history has included stealing Christmas decorations from a certain someone’s house (I still haven’t forgiven you, Gabe).

2) You find out who your real friends are when you live an hour away.

3) A place doesn’t feel like home until you run into someone you know at the grocery store.

4) My dog is definitely more popular than I am.

5) A new perspective can change everything.

6) You don’t realize how much your mom did for you, until you move out (How do I have so much laundry?!).

7) Wake up each day grateful for what you have.

8) Take the opportunity to see something new.

9) It’s OK to have a little pizza gut.

10) Everyone has a story to tell.

Now is the traditional time to make resolutions to better ourselves in the coming year. We determine what we should improve, and then with a steely resolve, work on it throughout the year, or at least until the end of January.

T h e words of a d v i c e that still ring in my ears are by WAYNE Benjamin Franklin.

GRANT They were drilled into me by elementary school teachers.

One of his most famous quotes is “Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” That saying has the added advantage of rhyming. Any old saying that rhymes must be true.

But actually, this one sums up a healthy and productive lifestyle. No late nights at the sports bar or at home grazing through Facebook; no running one step behind all day because you slept late.

It’s interesting that ol’ Ben hit the nail on the head 250 years ago. The most popular resolutions are all related to health and wealth, as you can see from the list on the right.

Another famous quote by Ben (and/or from “Hamlet”): “Never a lender or a borrower be.” Good advice, but good luck saving up for that house.

Actually, studies show that

many Americans are overextended in the credit category, so that advice is still credible.

It’s also true on a personal level. Why risk a friendship on the chance that money can’t be paid back?

Ben’s advice is usually something you would embroider on a pillow. More modern advice is not that embroider-worthy. You hear things such as, “Always wear clean underwear because you never know when you’re going to be in an accident.”

I think a couple of good New Year’s resolutions would be “No Exercise,” and “No Work.” These might sound facetious, but let me explain.

What kind of physical activity would you enjoy? There are many options, from simply walking to learning a martial art. If you find an exercise you enjoy, then it’s much easier to keep doing it. You won’t say, “This morning I have to exercise.” You’ll be looking forward to your chosen activity.

It’s the same with work. If you find something you enjoy, then it can’t be called work.

They say, “Find a job you enjoy and never work another day in your life.”

That’s true, but I’ve found there’s always an element of work. Several years ago, an editor asked me how I liked working at a newspaper. I said it would be more fun if you didn’t have the deadlines.

She said, “That’s why they call it ‘work.’” So, be prepared for some work, even if you find a job you enjoy. wayne@ormondbeachobserver.com

CITY GOALS By Wayne Grant | News Editor

City presents action agenda to state delegates A wish list, from protecting the environment to attracting business, shows what areas city leaders think are important.

The City Commission endorsed an “action agenda” that was presented to the Volusia County Legislation Delegation in December. The list communicates to the state representatives and senators the areas that the city officials feel reflect the city’s needs for the coming year, and should be considered for possible legislative action.

The following action agenda was prepared by the city, with the help of Pennington Law, of Tallahassee, a government relations firm, based on proposed legislation.

Item 1: Take Measures to Protect Natural Resources

1. Replacement of septic systems along coastal and inland rivers and waterways.

2. Improvements in storm wa-

ter treatment and flood control areas.

3. Water tanks to allow reusage of water and limit discharge to rivers and waterways.

Item 2: Help fund replacement of aging infrastructure

The needs of aging infrastructure throughout the city far outpace the city’s ability to replace these critical systems in a timely fashion. The city has spent more than $100 million in the last 10 years, but that hasn’t been sufficient to meet the needs.

The city needs assistance with: 1. Replacement of 50-year-old, 2-inch waterlines throughout the city, which have degraded over time and slaked off rust and lime into the water system.

2. Replacement of 50-year-old sewage collection systems, in-

Item 3: Incentivize Economic Development

The city spurs economic development by offering incentive programs to attract and retain businesses. However, the city needs state assistance with providing targeted economic development incentives for building infrastructure that aids in creating and/or fostering regional economic development opportunities for business development.

Key projects in Ormond Beach include: 1. Infrastructure assistance for roadways in Ormond Crossings.

2. U.S. 1 Corridor requires upgrades to the Interstate-95 in-

A continuing goal is to reduce discharge into inland waterways.

terchange and pedestrian sidewalks.

Item 4: Fund Pedestrian Safety Initiatives

The Deltona-Daytona BeachOrmond Beach metro area has the highest pedestrian death rate per 100,000 population among the state’s 20 metro areas. Local jurisdictions have recognized the need for both structural improvements to roadways and increased education and enforcement of existing laws. To be successful, this must be done on an area-wide basis with leadership from the District 5 FDOT, similar to the extremely successful “click it or ticket” campaign.

Funding should be identified, made a priority and be available to provide safe pedestrian crossings with rectangular flashing

looking ahead By Wayne Grant | News Editor

Survey shows yearning for peace in the coming year A ‘Person on the Street’ interview asked for resolutions, hopes.

Random people around Ormond Beach were asked about their New Year’s resolutions and hopes for the new year. There was a recurring theme: Peace.

“There’s enough pressure these days.”

Kenyon Dye, of Palm Coast, who sells handmade items made from PVC at the Ormond Beach Farmers Market and also performs as a musician throughout the area, said he doesn’t make resolutions because they just add something to worry about.

“There’s enough pressure these days,” he said.

But his goals are to be content and healthy.

“You can’t control the world but you can control your own environment,” he said.

“We forget to help each other.”

Jason Baller, of DeLand, delivers farm-fresh produce to the Farmers Market each week.

He said he would like to do more to bring peace and equality to people in the county. He said he mentions the county, because he has noticed that smaller counties in northern Florida still have a feeling of brotherhood.

“When counties get so big, we forget to help each other,”

he said.

“You’re not going to live forever.”

Robbin Wren, of Ormond Beach, who sells pottery at the market, said she wants to have more fun and work smarter.

“I’m killing myself right now,” she said. “You have to figure out how to work smart so you can enjoy life. You’re not going to live forever.”

“I’d like to see no more war.”

Robert Tanajes, of Ormond Beach, was fishing off the Granada Pier. He said he would like to see peace around the world, and thinks it could be possible.

“I hope ISIS doesn’t run over us,” he said.

His son, David, also fishing, echoed the sentiment.

“I’d like to see no more wars,” he said.

“I want to exercise more.”

Walking for exercise around the pier and bridge were Debi Callahan and Joyce Gainey, both longtime Ormond Beach residents.

Callahan said even though she walks almost every morning, she wants to exercise more to be healthier.

Gainey said she hopes for peace. She’s concerned about terrorism and hopes it goes away in the coming year.

“Follow God’s will in my life.”

Tiffany Spain and Rachel Ward both said they want to be closer to God. Spain said her resolution is “to run after God with everything I have with no stumbling blocks in my way.”

Ward said she wanted to “follow God’s will in my life and not my own.”

“I can’t remember when gas prices dropped.”

Frank Lospitalier, visiting from New York, said he hopes the stock market keeps going up and gas prices keep going down.

“I can’t remember when gas prices dropped,” he said.

“We just retired so we don’t know what we’re doing yet.”

Blane and Kim Kostus just retired and are living in an RV. They have their mail delivered to two different RV parks. They had planned to stay in Ormond Beach for one day, but were still there after three days because they were enjoying themselves.

“We just retired so we don’t know what we’re doing yet,” Blane Kostus said.

For the new year, Kim Kostus said they just want to find peace themselves.

“The peace will emanate out,” she said.

bright future By Jeff Dawsey | Sports Writer

Top athletes to watch in 2015 ORMOND BEACH SANDCRABS POP WARNER The Ormond Beach Sandcrabs Pop Warner teams will return an abundance of talent on all teams and look forward to adding new Ormond Beach families for both football and cheer teams.

The cheerleaders, coaches and staff had a very successful 2014 season, having all competitive teams place in the Top 3 of the ECC Conference and qualify for regional competition. From the regional competition, the Midget cheer squad qualified to compete at Disney’s Wide World of Sports where they earned a sixthplace finish. The Tiny Mites, Mitey Mites and Stars cheer programs were all also invited to perform at the Disney Wide World of Sports.

The football teams, according to Greg Schwartz, the league’s president, also had great seasons. Some of the players he mentioned, who performed will for the junior midgets were returning running backs Trea Martin and Colt Brown, who also anchored their best defense in years.

The Sandcrabs are also looking to return players that played offense and defense, who improved the play on the field from previous years.

Those players are Joe Justice, Jacob Moore, Luci DaSilva, Peyton Dicken, David Jones, Jacob Beach, Dylan Anderson, Braedan Glzae and Jadyn Nirschl.

The Junior Midget team will be bringing up a talented group of Pee Wee players, led by quarterback Kelsey Albert, Nathan Harris, Nathan Boyd, C.J. Timmerman, Daniel Brennaman, Skylar Gonzalez and Cameron Coates, as well as David Albertson, an all-around talented player, Johnny Williams and kickers/

The Pee Wee team will be led by returning athletes Johnathan Campbell, Garrick Schwartz and Corbin Hanks as well as Grant Schwartz.

“Junior Pee Wee players moving up will make a substantial contribution with Dylan Allison, Sam Rizzo, Daniel Defeo, Sean Baughman and Ty Moak,” Schwartz said. “The JPW program will also send a talented group of players to the PW team, led by Jacob Labonte and Adam Canfield.”

The loaded Junior Pee Wee team will be led by returning athletes Mike Jones, Cole Bowman, Cayden Hooper, Tyson Mills and Dale Semler, to name a few. The team will be joined by Mitey Mite move-

They began the season winning more than 10 straight matches, finishing with a 14-2 record, won their district championship finished seventh in the state tournament.

Goodwin, individually, averaged the seventh highest score (205) in the area, won the individual district cham-

pionship and placed 13th at the state finals. He was also voted on the All-Area’s bowling first team.

Looking forward to next year, the freshman only expects more from his team and himself.

“My goals for next season are for us to repeat as district champs and win the state title,” Goodwin said. “I also want to be the Bowler of the Year and win district and state in the individual category.”

Tyra Boyd

MAINLAND’S TYRA BOYD

From the beginning of the cross country season to its conclusion, Mainland’s Tyra Boyd proved that not only was she among the area’s top runners, but she was also one of the state’s beset.

Boyd seemed to chop seconds off her runs every time she stepped on a course. Earlier in the season, Boyd won the DeLand Invitational, by running a 20:54 5K. She saved her best time for last, which was at the state finals in Tallahassee, where she finished in 14th place with a personal best 19:05.

Other than Byrd’s Top 15th place at states, she finished in the Top 10 in nearly all of her events this past season. Boyd has also been invited to run for the USA team in Australia’s Down Under Invitational, which will be held in July, on Australia’s Gold Coast.

Denzel Houston

MAINLAND’S DENZEL HOUSTON

After a historic sophomore football season in which Denzel Houston accounted for over 40 touchdowns and 3,000 yards, according to Maxpreps. com, to lead the Mainland Buccaneers to a 13-1 record, there is little doubt that he will be the main attraction in sports for the upcoming year.

In his freshman year, Houston played wide receiver for the Buccaneers, so very little was expected of him when he took the starting role for Mainland.

Nevertheless, Houston knew he had talent, and he set goals for himself that he achieved.

“This offseason I will work hard and be a great leader for the team,” Houston said. “We have to work harder than we did last year, and we have to finish.”

There were certain games last season when Brant Williams took over for Father Lopez and nearly won games by his playmaking abilities. One, in particular, was the Green Wave’s homecoming game, when Williams ran for over 100 yards and scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter to erase a 17-point deficit.

Williams finished the season with over 1,000 allpurpose yards and multiple touchdown runs, catches and kick returns. Williams often showed off his ability to catch ball down the field, averaging 20.9 yards per reception, one of the area’s top averages.

“Every year our goal is to win a state championship, and next year we’ll have the team to reach that goal,” Williams said. “Personally, I want to work on becoming one of the state’s best wide receivers and all-around players.”

Javier Sylvester was a threat on the football for the Sandcrabs in many different ways this past season.

On defense against Flagler Palm Coast, he intercepted a pass and returned it for a touchdown. On offense, he ran for over 125 yards and scored two touchdowns on the ground, and caught a score against Deltona in a Seabreeze 24-15 win.

Whenever Sylvester gets out on the field on offense or defense, his opponents have to pay close attention, because he has shown that at any time, he can make plays that will alter games. With team captain and top offensive player Raushod Floyd graduating, Sylvester will become the focus of the offense, which will make for some exciting Seabreeze football in the 2015-16 season.

Art museum offering new classes and events in 2015

The Ormond Memorial Art Museum continues to revamp its schedule for next year.

To many, visiting an art museum means a passive stroll past art hanging on a wall. At the Ormond Memorial Art Museum, many visitors are anything but passive.

In 2014, the community watched as the museum grew to include additional classes and events that appealed to every age group.

“One of the things that we are really pleased we were able to do is increase the amount of free art outreach that we’ve done,” Museum Director Susan Richmond said. “Sometimes the people who need inspiration the most can’t always come to the museum.

We’ve taken art out.”

Through its Art in Therapy Program with the Florida Hospital and its outreach program for veterans with mental illness, the museum was able to spend 1,300 hours of free art outreach.

“Those are the things that make a permanent difference somewhere,” Richmond said. “To me, that would be one of my highlights of 2014.”

Museum staff have also provided the people that are able to come to the facility with plenty of different opportunities to be creative.

“We’re turning the museum more into a center for creativity,” said Kristin Heron, curator of arts and outreach.

“We had a really good response to our colored pencil class.”

The class stemmed from Colored Pencil Society of America exhibit, which so intrigued viewers that some signed up for the museum’s colored pencil class. The museum plans to offer the same kind of partnership in January with its collection of shibori, a form of Japanese fabric dyeing. shibori classes twill be offered as the art is exhbited.

That kind of synergy between exhibits and instruction “really helps people appreciate the art,” Heron said.

“Reflections 2” is a shibori dyed quilt

by Diane Franklin.

“Zen Zone: Shibori and Bonsai” will be in the museum Jan. 9 through Feb. 8 and will showcase the work of shibori artist Diane Franklin and bonsai master Jason Schley. After that, “The Messersmiths: Explorers of Art” will be exhibited from Feb. 13 to Mar. 22.

Richmond is particularly excited about this collection because it hits close to home.

“Harry and Fred Messersmith are a part of a local family, a very artistic family,” Richmond said. “Fred was the father. He is deceased now, but he was a nationally known watercolorist. Harry, his son, is a metal sculptor. So we’re going to show father and son together.”

This is the first time in Florida that their work has been shown together.

The museum also plans to expand its offering of children’s classes. New ideas include a Zentangle class Jan. 14 and Valentine Art and Teatime Feb. 1.

And there’s one more event that Richmond — and many other in Ormond Beach — will be looking forward to.

“People always ask me, and now I get to say, ‘Yes, Dogapalooza is coming back,” Richmond said. “It will be in the spring — our dog-friendly night at the museum, including doggie art projects. We skipped it last year, but we’re excited to bring it back.”

Richmond and Heron both hope that their continued efforts to bring

more creativity to the museum will bring more people to the museum.

“If you haven’t been here, come by,” Richmond said. “So many people come in and say ‘You know, I’ve lived here forever, have always driven by and wondered what this was.’ If I had one wish it would be that if you have company in town or are looking for something to do, that you check out the museum. There’s always something going on here.”

Harry Messersmith is a DeLand-based sculptor, and has headed various art organizations including the Deland Museum of Art.

HALF A CENTURY OF HELP By Wayne Grant | News Editor

SCORE marks 50th year of helping businesses succeed Those with a dream for a business or established business people can get free help in workshops or mentoring.

SCORE Chapter 87 Volusia Flagler is marking its 50th anniversary on the heels of being ranked third among SCORE chapters throughout the nation based on overall performance.

SCORE is a nonprofit association dedicated to helping small businesses launch, grow and achieve their goals through one-on-one counseling, workshops and mentorship at no cost. SCORE Volusia Flagler is one chapter out of 320 national chapters that fall under the Small Business Administration.

In October, in their annual review, they were placed in the platinum level, or top 10%, of all chapters in the U.S. when rated in operational efficiency and quality of service.

In the past year, the local chapter helped nearly 700 entrepreneurs and potential entrepreneurs in face-to-face and online sessions. They had 46 workshops and 1,600 people attended.

Tom Hellman, recently elected president, said his goal is to maintain the high level of success SCORE 87 has enjoyed and to keep “forward facing.”

He sees 2015 as a pivotal year.

They plan to expand their usage of social media and email marketing as well as online training.

“We want to build on the strong foundation we have and ensure we remain relevant,” he said.

Another goal is to let people know SCORE exists. Hellman said in any group he talks to, only about 40% know of them.

“The ones who know us say we do a great job,” he said. “We need to be more effective in promoting ourselves.”

Typically, the volunteers are people that have been involved in corporate leadership positions, or were small business owners that have had successful careers and want to give back to the community.

The acronyn stands for Service Corps of Retired Executives, but not all volunteers are retired.

Hellman said there are several volunteers who have current businesses that help in different ways, such as holding a workshop or serving as a mentor or an ambassador. They have one volunteer who runs a nonprofit.

“It’s an interesting mix,” Hellman said.

Hellman said that entrepreneurs are the backbone of the community and important for future economic recovery.

“They have the courage to succeed and we are here to help them achieve that success,” he said.

He said many successful businessmen and women volunteer for the organization as a way to give back to the community.

“We’re always looking for volunteers,” he said.

All sessions are confidential,

and the volunteers are not allowed to profit financially.

Hellman said it’s a feeling of accomplishment to help someone achieve success, and also the volunteer stays engaged with the community.

“It keeps you young,” he said.

“You’re doing something important.”

He said there are basically three types of clients: dreamers, who have an idea; experienced people, who need help with a business plan; and established businessmen, who have some type of problem such as not making enough profit.

“We help in their specific area,” Hellman said.

He said SCORE started in the 1960s. The Small Business Administration program administered loans, but started to realize that people with business plans were sometimes lacking in training in management and particularly finance.

So, SCORE was started to fill the need.

The “87” signifies that Volusia/ Flagler was the 87th chapter to join the national organization.

Hellman said that participation grew during the recession and then tapered off and now is holding steady.

Their funding comes from a variety of sources. Their office is provided as an in-kind donation from the Internal Revenue Service. They also receive funds
