Missing memorials Five roadside memorials on US 1 were removed

by FDOT, upsetting the families. FDOT says it has learned its lesson.

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

The day after Tyler Tracy died in a car crash on U.S. 1 north of County Road 304, his brotherin-law Daniel Vitale went to the accident site to erect a memorial to surprise his sister, and Tyler’s wife of 10 weeks, Brianna Vitale Tracy.

Brianna Tracy got another surprise a week ago, when a friend texted her at work to tell her someone was taking the memorial items and placing them in a trash bag.

Tyler Tracy’s memorial was one of five collected that afternoon by an FDOT contractor.

Another memorial removed was for a friend of Brianna Tracy’s, Jaime Hutcherson, who died in an accident further down U.S. 1, three years ago.

“I know his mom and she said, ‘My stuff has been there for three years, and I went there and it’s not there. What do I do? I want that stuff back,’” Brianna Tracy said.

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

Ask Ashley Higgins what she was doing after work on Wednesday, Feb. 3, and she has no problem remembering. That was the afternoon she came home from work to find her 11-year-old son, Cameron, sprawled on the kitchen floor fighting for his life due to an undetected arteriovenous malformation, or AVM, in his brain.

Higgins works in the administration offices at Grand Haven and had gotten off early that day.

“After he got off the bus, he was selling his camp cards for Palm Coast Boy Scout Troop 281,” Hig-

gins said. “He was fine. He told his friend he needed to get inside because he knows I don’t let him go outside when I am not there.”

Initially Higgins thought Cameron was playing a joke. He was on the floor, a water bottle by his side, his hand stretched out like he was trying to get it. His mom said he likes to play tricks and make people laugh so at first she thought — she hoped — this was just another joke.

“When I walked in, he looked up at me and then his head went down,” she said. “I screamed, ‘I’m going to call 9-1-1. You’d better wake up.’”

SEE ‘I TELL HIM’ PAGE 4A

“The biggest thing about Cameron is he’s a polite young man.

He’s wellliked ... We miss him terribly.”

YOUR TOWN WHAT IF YOU FOUND AN ENVELOPE FULL OF CASH? It sounds like the premise of a “gotcha” reality TV show: An envelope packed with thousands of dollars in cash is left laying out in an intersection, waiting for someone to happen upon it while cameras record what they do next.

But it was no setup Feb. 21 when Palm Coast resident Julia Dubinskiy, 44, happened upon an envelope stuffed full of money at the intersection of U.S. 1 and Seminole Woods Boulevard at about 11:30 a.m. — and decided to turn it over to police. Dubinskiy called the Sheriff’s Office and handed it over to a deputy. “(Dubinskiy) advised she had no further information regarding the money, and wished to turn it over to law enforcement,” the deputy wrote in a case report. There was a total of $2,200 inside.

Deputies weren’t able to get a formal sworn statement from Dubinskiy because she speaks and writes Russian only, according to the case report. The Sheriff’s Office is holding the money in the hope that its owner will come forward.

Group trashes pizzeria over garlic knot cheese Jessica Conti really didn’t want any cheese on her garlic knots.

And when Palm Coast Pizza gave her a box of garlic knots with cheese at about 9:15 p.m.

Feb. 19, Conti demanded her money back, but was angered by the way the employee placed the cash on the counter.

Then three of her friends — 32-year-old Shawn Cody, 26-year-old Hareem Jones and 23-year-old Vincent Conti — burst into the pizza shop, and the four shoved the cash register to the floor, barged into the kitchen and began “throwing pizza boxes and food everywhere,” according to a Flagler County Sheriff’s Office report.

“Looks like cheese on her garlic knots was way too much for her to handle, and she and her friends had the opportunity to spend some time in our version of adult timeout (jail),” Sheriff’s Office Spokesman Jim Troiano wrote in an email to the press.

The four were gone by the time the cops showed up, but witnesses identified them to deputies, who arrested the four later and charged them with criminal mischief and bur-

glary of an occupied structure.

Damage to the pizza shop was estimated at less than $1,000.

COUNCIL SALARIES

And then, the $192 raise was canceled ...

It takes votes in two meetings to pass an ordinance. A proposal to raise council members’ salaries didn’t make it through the second vote.

This is the fourth year in a row that the business owners at European Village funded fireworks to celebrate European Village’s anniversary.

A European Decade Fireworks exploded Sunday, Feb. 21, as European Village turned 10 years old.

ANASTASIA PAGELLO STAFF WRITER

The European Village, along with seven of its original businesses, turned 10 years old on Sunday, Feb. 21. An all-day community celebration centered around the new Gourmet Farmers Market featured 60 vendors, kids bounce houses, live entertainment and an evening firework show.

Even through a roller coaster economy that has rocked Palm Coast’s businesses throughout the years, European Village has remained intact. Some of the business owners said they think European Village is now climbing the charts and has received tremendous foot traffic throughout the last few weeks.

“When we first opened our businesses here, in 2012, at European Village, there was a lot of disparity from the other preexisting businesses,” said Laura Barnes, co-owner of Burrito 101 and Chophouse 101. “Not including our businesses, there were only

Robert Rogers, Cydy Palang, Joyce Connolly with owners of Burrito 101 and Chophouse 101 Laura, Lee and Sara Barnes.

seven other places open at that time.”

As Barnes stood in the soft light of the village’s courtyard, she spun in a slow circle while counting all the businesses that remained open almost until 10 p.m. on Sunday.

“Tonight, I am looking around and realize the transition that the European Village Commercial Association has made,” she said.

“The business count has more than doubled that of just four years ago. The association has brought this place a long way.”

The Barneses, along with many of the local residents, want European Village to be the heart of Palm Coast’s entertainment district and

BRIEFS County says city won’t have to pay for major emergency radio system changes The city might have to pay for changes that allow more devices to be linked to existing radio towers, but it won’t have to pay for the cost of adding more towers themselves, Public Safety Emergency Manager Kevin Guthrie said.

City officials at public meetings have repeatedly expressed concern about how much the city might have to pay in as the county upgrades its radio system from an 800 MMHz to a digital system, a transformation that cost around $20 million.

But most of that cost would be linked to adding new towers

or bidirectional amplifiers that can be placed on high buildings and repeat the towers’ signals.

Those costs — costs that are linked to the extent of the coverage, which has to do with the number of towers and their height — would be borne by the county, Guthrie said.

Under its agreement with the county, the city might pay part of the cost associated with the user capacity on the towers — the number of devices, like radio antennas, that are placed at the top of individual towers — if its use of the system meant means the county has to add more devices on the towers.

But the city would not have to pay into the cost of putting up towers, Guthrie said.

Palm Coast Tennis Center

No more Kemper?

City considers ditching company at golf course, tennis center The city’s money-losing Palm Harbor Golf Course and tennis center may not remain under the management of KemperSports, despite a contingent of devoted Kemper fans.

“Paying a management company to run (the golf course) and lose money seems like the worst of all possible options,”

to make the location a vacation destination.

Burrito 101 and Chophouse 101 co-owner Lee Barnes said that not only has European Village gained over 10 new and flourishing businesses, but the apartments have filled up within the past year, as well. “Now, with implementing this new farmers market, we no longer have a day off,” he said.

“Sundays used to be the slowest day; now suddenly it has become our busiest, and we can no longer leave our staff unattended. Considering all the problems we may encounter as business owners, being too busy is a great problem to have.”

City Councilman Jason DeLorenzon after a presentation on the properties during a Feb. 23 City Council workshop.

Even if it’s not possible to run the course for a profit, he said, the city might be able to lease it out or have city staff run it for less than the city pays Kemper.

The city, which owns the KemperSports-managed golf course and tennis center and has been covering the cost of their deficits for years, has been considering those options, City Manager Jim Landon told council members.

It could also convert the 18hole course to nine-hole course and rezone the remaining space so it can be used for something else, Mayor Jon Netts said.

“There are lots of options open to us,” Netts said.

As things are, the city has not renewed its contract with KemperSports, and is instead going month-to-month

After months of wrangling, a proposal to raise City Council members’ salaries died so quietly the community barely noticed it.

The proposal — which finally took the form of an ordinance to raise council members’ salaries from $9,600 to $9,792, and the mayor’s salary from $11,400 to $11,628 — made it through an initial council vote Feb. 2.

Then it came back Feb. 16 for the second council vote that is required to pass ordinances.

Usually, a second vote is fairly perfunctory; council members have already discussed the issue and voted once.

But at the Feb. 16 meeting, after Councilman Jason DeLorenzo made a motion to accept the ordinance, no one seconded his motion — including council members Heidi Shipley and Bill McGuire, who had voted in favor of it before. Someone on the council must second a motion in order for it to be put to vote, so the council salary proposal died without one.

The whole thing took less than five minutes, and none of the council members commented on the salary proposal before it failed.

In a brief interview after a City Council workshop Feb. 23, Shipley said that after the initial Feb. 2 vote but before the Feb. 16 hearing, she’d spoken to residents who had said the raise was so slight it wasn’t worth it.

“It wasn’t going to do anything to benefit the city,” she said. Shipley and Councilman Steve Nobile — the sole council member to vote against the proposed salary ordinance at the Feb. 2 meeting — had both proposed larger raises in the past.

Shipley said she hoped a future council would consider the issue.

In accordance with the City Charter, if the council votes to raise its members’ pay, the salary change would not go into effect until after the next election.

“It wasn’t going to do anything to benefit the city.”

While waiting for the ambulance, Higgins rolled him on his side because it seemed he was going to be sick. She found out later that he was actually having mini-seizures. He had never had seizures before. His only medical issue was an occasional bloody nose from time to time, something that would have more significance to her in future days.

Cameron was taken to Florida Hospital Flagler where they gave him medication to stop the seizures, but the seizures didn’t stop.

“Then they took him back for a CAT scan and found blood on his brain,” Higgins said. “They came out and told us he needed to be put on a breathing machine and that he was going to have to be life-flighted to a hospital that was capable of caring for him.

“Dr. (Robert) Livingston was his doctor and he told me Cameron was going to have to have brain surgery,” Higgins said. “As a mother, I felt like my insides were dying; I really did.”

The next thing Higgins remembers is climbing aboard a medical transport helicopter for the trip to Wolfson Children’s Hospital in Jacksonville. It was a little before 2 a.m. Dr. Livingston told her that Wolfson’s had the specialized neurological care Cameron needed.

Cameron was taken into surgery to have an external ventricular drain placed in his brain

THE NEXT STEP

Cameron will need rehabilitation; he will need to relearn everything, from walking to reading, colors and math. Higgins is hoping to be able to move him to Brooks Rehabilitation, south from Wolfson Children’s Hospital. But, like everything up to this point, with no insurance, a charitable application has to be completed and accepted.

“We’ve applied for Medicaid so hopefully we will get approval for that,” she said. “Going forward is where we are going to need the help — getting into Brooks Rehab, and the medication is expensive.”

Higgins seems uncomfortable asking for help, and overwhelmed by the kindness and compassion she has received from friends and

but the problem — ” she stops, then starts again. “Not a problem, I am thankful, but every step is so small, but when he does something, everyone is like ‘Hallelujah.’ The little microscopic advances were enough to keep me going. I’m thankful for every breath he takes, every time he looks and me; and every time he squeezes my hand it’s a blessing.”

On Monday, Feb. 22, his mother and his grandmother, Tana Fraser, and the nurses were getting Cameron ready for a big move. He was being released from the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit and moved to room 508 in the neurological unit on the fifth floor of the hospital.

to relieve the pressure. It was the pressure of the blood on the brain that caused the seizures, and two mini-strokes. His AVM was rated a class 4 out of 5. The next day, the pressure returned and a second surgery was performed to put another EVD on the right side.

In just over two weeks, Higgins has become quite versed on AVM, treatment, and medications. She talks about tangled blood vessels in the brain, aneurysms, angiograms, and intracranial pressure with the medical staff.

She sleeps in his room on a love seat-sized couch that folds flat. A green Moleskine journal contains everything that happens each day, every medication and dosage and what it’s for, and every person who comes in to see Cameron.

“I have done lots of research since this started,” Higgins said. “The first two weeks I was researching until 1 in the morning every single night.”

In the back section of the journal is a letter for Cameron to read when he is better.

“I haven’t been able to talk to him, and in the beginning I felt he wasn’t hearing me so I wanted to write down all my thoughts, and tell him that I am thankful for him, and this is what happened to you and whenever you wake up you will be able to read it,” she said.

“If your child has headaches or nose bleeds, don’t think of it as, ‘Oh they’re just a kid,’” she said. “Cameron had nosebleeds.

I’m not aware of any headaches, but he’s not the kind of kid who would complain. He would fall on the skate park and never cry or complain, he would just get up and run it off.”

This incredibly strong and resolute woman wavers: For but a moment, her eyes fill with tears, her words catch in her throat. She says, “I tell him at night, ‘Come back to me.’”

“I’m no stranger to hard work,” she said. “I work every day, and was in school online full time for IT. I work hard, and it’s not about wanting a handout for sure.”

She is amazed at the response she has gotten from the Gofundme page she set up (see the box above).

“Every time a donation came in, I would cry,” she said. “People I don’t even know were donating $500, $300 — the generosity of humankind is ‘wow.’”

She knows she is lucky to have family support. Her ex-husband Kyle drove from Orlando to Jacksonville every day the first two weeks until Cameron was awake.

Her mother, who lives in Georgia, was able to arrange to work remotely from Palm Coast. Her father and step mother, and her brother Chris, who she lives with, are all in Palm Coast. She is also thankful for her employer.

“The Grand Haven administration has been wonderful,” she said. “My boss is really one of a kind, and the residents and board have supported me, and are very compassionate.”

Picky eaters unite at our dinner table Someday my kids might eat healthy food, but for now, it’s all about salt and ketchup.

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

Food has always been stressful at the McMillan home. Our children are such picky eaters that we have given up all hope of feeding them broccoli or green beans, and we just try to survive.

We celebrate small victories, like the kids learning that even if you think dinner is disgusting, you never say it’s “disgust-

ing” to your mother.

Each child has a technique for making food more palatable. Jackson, 12, shakes salt on his food until that’s all he can taste. Grant, 10, spreads food around and pats it with his fork to make it look like he is eating more than he is, and Ellie, 6, smothers everything with loads of ketchup — even apple slices. If she is done with her food, she eats plain ketchup until someone makes her stop.

“Oh, man,” Grant said one night, “I’m so full I couldn’t eat one more bite.”

Jackson, ever the helpful big brother, noticed the large quantity of ground hamburger spread around Grant’s plate.

“Oh, really?” Jackson said.

“What if we have s’mores for dessert? Would you still be too full for one more bite then?”

Grant apparently anticipated such a challenge because

he didn’t hesitate with his answer: “I eat s’mores whole.”

We also seem to be behind in teaching basic food identification.

“Aren’t cucumbers just pickles with the warts scraped off?” Grant asked one day.

It seems our only hope is our fourth child, Kennedy. She is 1 year old and hopefully hasn’t learned anything from her siblings yet. Maybe she will be a healthy eater?

The best sign so far is that she seems to be easily brainwashed. We read her Dr. Seuss over and over and ask her the key questions directly.

“Kennedy, do you like green eggs and ham?”

Eager to please, she raises her eyebrows and nods her head vigorously: Yes! “Would eat them on a boat?

Would you eat them with a goat?”

She nods up and down, up and down. Don’t worry, Dad! I’ll eat them in a house and with a mouse, no problem!

Meanwhile, Ellie makes

a huge pile of ketchup and stands up a French fry in the middle, as if it were a candle.

“Look,” she says, “it’s a ketchup birthday cake!”

I shudder at the thought of eating such a pile. But, ketchup is a source of tomatoes; I have to keep reminding myself of that.

And, focus on Kennedy.

She’s our only hope.

Later, Kennedy brings me a Ziploc Baggie full of pretzel sticks. She shakes it at me, wanting me to open it.

“You need to eat good food, something with more nutritional value than pretzels,” I tell her. “But you can have one.

Just one.”

I open the bag and extend a single pretzel stick for her to take. She looks at me, then at the pretzel in my hand. And she grabs the full bag instead and walks away, probably to go add more salt and dip them in ketchup.

Diana Nagi Dailey: “Continuous prayer to this family! My dad recently had one rupture, it’s so scary to see your loved ones go through this.”

EUROPEAN VILLAGE TURNS A DECADE OLD: 2006-2016

NO MORE KEMPERSPORTS? CITY CONSIDERS DITCHING MANAGEMENT COMPANY Joe Marasa: “Why not open it to the public and charge like an amusement park for the public so the people ages 12-100 have a place to go and do things. Crime might go down, less teens on the roads mean safer roads, families can get together have an outing, churches can get together and have an outing. This can be an opportunity to creat jobs for young teens, Birthday parties etc. Come on Palm coast where is the creative thinking? The slogan for palm coasters is that there is nothing to do in Palm coast but

Renee Miller Shoner: “We saw the fireworks from our house.

They were beautiful and we hope you do them more often. Be the Disney of Palm Coast.”

Scott Campion: “The European village is looking great with the new paint job!!!! And the Sunday farmers market is amazing with over 60 vendors!!!!!”

FRIENDS ARRESTED AFTER TRASHING PIZZA SHOP FOR PUTTING CHEESE ON THEIR GARLIC KNOTS Kristina Baker: “What is it with pizza drama in Palm Coast?”

Julie Lestikow Baumgartner: “Unbelievable. The woman was bad enough ... Hope they get some serious counseling.”

PALM COAST TO GET ITS THIRD DOLLAR GENERAL Maria Makris Clark: “Rebuild the city with substantial restaurants and stores not this garbage. I’ll never shop there. Why not bring in decent food stores too with quality meats. I have to drive to Orlando for proper meat from Fresh Market and Whole Foods, not this grade F meats. Disgusted with the whole shopping scenario in Palm Coast.”

Preston Zepp: “How about a fishing /outdoor supply store?

Or a seafood restaurant on the mainland? For a city who’s motto is “Find Your Florida,” there isn’t much Florida to find here.”

Thomas L Polacek: “One misconception here is that The City opened these stores. Retailers do studies to see what the population uses and needs. They would not spend millions to build it if we the people didn’t shop there. If you want mom and pop restaurants OPEN one. Nobody is stopping anyone from opening a good food place. Just my two cents”

They postponed the decision on the tower at Cody’s Corner for 30 days until staff could meet with the residents there. The tower was later approved. Also, the manufacturer of the EMS radios will quit producing parts at the end of 2017 not by 2017.

DEPUTIES SCARE OFF CAR THIEF, GET VEHICLE BACK 2:16 p.m. Belle Terre Parkway and State Road 100.

Stolen vehicle: A man told deputies his van had just been stolen from the Coastal Plaza on State Road 100. A deputy saw the van, a 2002 white Ford, heading south on Seminole Woods Parkway and tried to stop it, but the car turned onto Universal Trail and fled down an FPL access road leading to Citation Parkway.

Another deputy saw the car approaching on Citation and used a light to get a look at the driver: a short-haired or bald man wearing a black jacket and smoking a cigarette. A Sheriff’s Office corporal told units to break off from the traffic stop, and the deputies turned off their lights and sirens but kept track of the car.

It stopped on Serbian Bellflower Trail, but by the time deputies got to the van, the thief had fled.

They set up a perimeter but didn’t find him. The van had a flat rear passenger tire, but a towing company fixed it up and the van was returned to its owner.

$500 SUNGLASSES STOLEN AT RV PARK 12:14 p.m. 3500 block of Old Kings Road South.

Car break-in: Someone broke into a 64-year-old man’s Ford Falcon at an RV park and stole just one thing — a $500 pair of Costa sunglasses — in the midst of a string of mischief that occurred while a large party was held at two of the campground’s cabins.

A large party at a couple of nearby cabins was held that night, and other odd things had happened at the park: One resident found a machete in front of their home by the front door, and another had their golf cart removed from their lot. The cart was later found down the street.

Park staff told the deputy that the two cabins had been trashed, with items broken.

BB GUNSLINGER SHOOTS UP JEEP, GARAGE DOOR 5:51 p.m. First block of Lago Vista Place. Criminal mischief: A 44-year-old man heard an odd, repetitive noise outside his home at about 9:30 p.m. Feb. 19.

The next day, he found several BB gun holes in the rear and side windows of his Jeep Cherokee, and more BB gun marks on the garage door. There was a BB gun pellet on the ground in front of the garage door. The man thought he knew who did it. Deputies tried to contact the suspected BB gunslinger, but he wouldn’t answer the door. The victim told deputies that others had said the suspected BB gunslinger had boasted of carrying a handgun at all times, and that he’d recently bought a new BB gun.

Is Palm Coast headed in the right direction?

Survey says yes ...

JONATHAN SIMMONS NEWS EDITOR

Palm Coast residents overwhelmingly rate the city as a good place to live, and have identified safety and the economy as priorities for the city in the coming two years.

The city of Palm Coast emailed 1,336 copies of the annual National Citizen Survey to residents last fall, and got 445 of them back.

This year was the 14th year the city has held the citizen survey, City Administration Coordinator Denise Bevan told City Council members at a Feb. 23 workshop, and the city is considering doing it less often — perhaps every other year instead of every year.

The survey cost about $9,000 or $10,000 to implement in 2011, Bevan said, but the proposed cost for next year is about $15,000.

Councilman Bill McGuire praised city staff’s work on the survey, but questioned how useful it actually is, particularly since the city has no way of telling how much consideration respondents are actually putting into filling it out.

“To be very blunt about it, I don’t see where this survey helps me to be a better city councilman,” McGuire said. “I mean, it’s interesting, it’s somewhat provocative, but it’s not conclusive.”

Palm Coast Mayor Jon Netts suggested the council consider doing the full survey every other year, but doing more detailed

Fifty-seven percent say Palm Coast is headed in the right direction, up from 47% a year ago. topical surveys in the intervening years.

Councilman Steve Nobile liked that approach.

“It’s good data,” Nobile said.

“My only opinion is we need to drill down more on certain areas, so we can start looking at actionable points.”

Survey responses on the big questions were generally positive: A total of 26% of respondents rated the city as having an excellent quality of life, and 51% said it had a good quality of life, while 21% rated it as having a fair quality of life and just 2% rated it as having a poor quality of life.

(See the full results at http://bit. ly/1p0KULD.) The survey had more than 300 questions, not including demographic ones. Most of the questions are standard nationwide, but the city also added a few of its own custom questions this year.

The city also rolled out a new web version of the survey, but its results are unscientific. The web survey was taken 718 times, but the city had no way to keep respondents from taking it more than once. (See the results of the web survey at http://bit. ly/1oF3g4M.)

RATINGS THAT WENT UP 7% OR MORE FROM LAST YEAR:

City as a place to visit (74% rating positively in 2015; 60% in 2014) n Overall economic heath (46% in 2015; 37% in 2014) n Cost of living (47% in 2015; 37% in 2014) n Overall quality of new development (38% in 2015; 30% in 2014) n Economic development (46% in 2015; 37% in 2014) n Traffic signal timing (42% in 2015; 35% in 2014) n Value of services for taxes paid (57% in 2015; 46% in 2014) n Overall direction that Palm Coast is taking (57% in 2015; 47% in 2014) n Confidence in Palm Coast government (44% in 2015; 35% in 2014) n Palm Coast government welcoming citizen involvement:(45% in 2015; 38% in 2014) n

FDOT: ‘There was a lesson learned here’

FROM PAGE 1

“It was a sprocket made from a motorcycle made for her and cemented in the ground.”

Why were the memorials removed from the side of the road?

FDOT spokesman Steve Olson said FDOT is not a “policing agency” and that removals are complaint driven, whether by individuals, or, as in this case, an FDOT employee who felt the markers were getting too big, and could become a safety issue.

“Four of the five removed that day had state markers so the families could be notified of where the items were if they wanted to pick them up,” Olson said.

However, he said, “There should not be a surprise element

for the family. A tragedy like this is a loss of a lifetime.”

Memorials are added to by loved ones and, if nothing is removed, the items multiply and can become a distraction on side of road, and make maintenance difficult.

Brianna Tracy’s friend, who took the items from the contractor, said she was told they didn’t call when items were removed, but that a note would be left.

That wasn’t the case for Hutcherson’s mother, who Brianna Tracy said had no idea what had happened to her son’s memorial.

Tyler Tracy’s friends have been meeting Brianna Tracy at the site every month since the accident, and she visits with their daughter, Emerson, regularly. On a recent visit, Emerson asked where her

daddy’s flowers were.

On Thursday, Feb. 18, seven months after the accident, the monthly meeting became a “ride” from the site, south on U.S. 1, east on Old Dixie Highway, and north on Old Kings Road, and past Flagler Palms Memorial, where Tyler is buried. She was expecting 50 to 60 participants.

“There are more this time because they all drove past and asked, ‘Where’s the cross?’” Brianna Tracy said. “I probably had a hundred calls: ‘What did you do with the cross?’ They want

to show everyone that it means something to everybody.”

Brianna Tracy said she maintained the site, changing the mulch regularly, trimming bushes around the site, and adding items.

“It could have been handled way different, and we wouldn’t even have an issue, but it was handled so backwards and ridiculous,” she said.

Olson said this incident has been a learning experience for the department.

“There was a lesson learned here, and we have to improve our soft skills,” Olson said. “From now on, we will notify the family up front so there will be no surprises. If they have a state marker, we have their information and we can contact them. If not we need to leave a note.”

Bottle clubs may be added to a list of banned land uses in the city of Palm Coast that includes asphalt plants, puppy mills and hog farms.

“Pretty much nobody wants these things, to be honest with you,” Sheriff’s Office Palm Coast Precinct Cmdr. Mark Carman told city Planning Board members at a Feb. 17 meeting.

The Planning Board voted unanimously to add the clubs to the list of land uses that are banned under city code.

The City Council will vote on the proposed ordinance banning bottle clubs on March 1 and March 15.

SPORTS The Few. The Proud District Champs.

The Marines.

This is a woman’s world

These four district champions have already signed to join the Marines after their senior year.

JEFF DAWSEY STAFF WRITER

T

hey have served in the Matanzas wrestling program for the last four years, and are currently reaping the benefits of their labor. But, in a few short months, district champions Maverick Dennis, Rocky Samples, Carter Goodman and Tristan Kraus will go on to serve a bigger purpose, when they each raise their right hands and pledge an oath to the United States Marine Corps.

“I’m proud that they have made the commitment to serve this great country,” coach John White said. “It takes a special person to be a Marine. I think

the sport of wrestling has prepared them for this; each one knows what it’s like to push their bodies to the brink.

They also have a strong sense of team/family. I know each of these young men will be great Marines. I’m proud to have been a small part of their lives.”

The four all joined the wrestling program as freshmen and formed a bond throughout their high school years. They will most likely finish the season as the most successful wrestling team, and hope to serve their country together, though they may serve thousands of miles apart. Below are their reasons for joining the service, more precisely, the Marine Corps.

DID YOU KNOW? This season is the first in the program’s history that multiple wrestlers have eclipsed the 40-match win mark. This team has four and a potential fifth, depending on his regional performance.

SAMPLES

I want to be a part of something bigger than myself and challenge myself to a whole new level. Since my dad was a Marine, he instilled the dream into me to become one at a young age, and I want to live up to that.

KRAUS

Coming from a line of family in the military, it was either college or military. My mom expects something great out of each of her kids, especially me. I want to challenge myself, explore different countries. I’m made for this, and I can’t wait to join the brotherhood and serve my country.

JEFF DAWSEY SPORTS EDITOR

Florida high school girls have been competing in an unsanctioned state wrestling tournament, but it may change soon.

Karla Goodman

The Matanzas Pirates won the 2A District 4 championship.

WINNERS, WINNERS The Matanzas Pirates took home the 2A District 4 wrestling championship Wednesday, Feb. 17, at Matanzas.

The Pirates won five individual titles, and seven others placed in the Top 4, securing a spot in this week’s regional tournament. The regional qualifiers were Chris Mixan, champion; Jordin Castanheira, EddyLeon de la Cruz and Lawrence Russo, second; Stone White, Paul Beret, and Daniel Leonard, third; Josh Bower, fourth; (the other four are discussed in the story). The region tournament will be held on Friday and Saturday, Feb. 26 and 27, in Tallahassee.

GOODMAN I joined the Marines to take on a challenge that I knew wasn’t going to be easy.

I wanted to serve my country and join the brotherhood that only Marines share.

DENNIS

I wanted to join the Marines because I really want to make my parents proud, open up more opportunities to myself and do something great for our country.

T

he other day I watched my wife, Jessica, put together a wooden book case and put up new blinds. Did I lend a hand?

Of course! I showed her how to twist in a drill bit. Please, don’t judge me.

Since getting married in 2010, she’s handled all of the heavy duty work, not because I’m lazy, I just suck at it.

For example, at separate times, we’ve both assembled two of the same cheap book shelves. Hers looks like the picture on the box, and mine, a kindergarten project.

Like Jessica, there are a lot of women in the world who can do “manly” things better than men, or at least better than I. Quickly approaching, in their own lane, are Florida high school studentathletes, who are girl wrestlers.

For years, these young ladies have had to wrestle against the boys — and still do — instead of competing against each other in a league, until now.

Recently, over 271 girls participated in the Varsity Girls State Championships Saturday, Feb. 13, at Osceola High School, and four of those girls were locals: Myla Deford and Leslie Baez of Flagler Palm Coast, Makayla Wilder of Matanzas and Dessiea Kaler of Seabreeze.

Baez and Kaler didn’t place, but Deford, who wrestled a weight class higher than she has all season, finished fourth in her division, and Wilder, a first-year wrestler, finished second.

Although the sport is not officially sanctioned

by FHSAA, many participants and coaches Richard Wilder believe it will Makayla Wilder soon be.

“I think it would be great, because, at the girl tournaments, girls have a fair shot, and it is based on who is actually better,” Kaler said. Kaler, a boys’ regional qualifier, recently pinned a boy in their conference tournament, much to the entire gym’s surprise and hers, to advance to districts.

FPC moves on from half-point district loss Despite four individual champions, Flagler Palm Coast came up short as a team.

JEFF DAWSEY STAFF WRITER

N

o one wants to lose, much less by margins such as half of a point.

Flagler Palm Coast placed second in its district meet, falling short with 242.5 points, just shy of Fleming Island’s 243 on Saturday, Feb. 20, at FPC. “It’s hard, but the kids had a good time; they wrestled well,” coach Tom Bartolotta said.

“Hopefully, we can get the regional title next weekend; that’s better than the district title. We got 14 wrestlers wrestling next weekend. Winter Springs has 11, and Fleming Island has 11.

We’re at home, and I think we’re gonna do some good things next week.”

Although they didn’t win it as a team, the Bulldogs had four wrestlers win their individual district champions, while several others placed. Winners were Mike DeAugustino, Kaz Maia, Eric Vigo (formerly Russo) and Evyn Insalaco. Maia still remains undefeated at 48-0.

Kaz Maia attempts to pin his opponent before winning 18-2.

Pirates shut out Bulldogs

fter just three minutes, Flagler Palm Coast was trying to climb out of a 3-0 hole from Matanzas. That hole would eventually grow large enough to keep the clock running until the final whistle,

where the Pirates won 15-0 Friday, Feb. 19, at FPC. Gunner Parson and James Mayer each had two goals and two assists, and Paul Pechman and Jericho Pedron also had two goals, Pedron an assist.

Chase Smith’s shot barely misses the goal.

Storm and Max Schalit, Jake Cohill, Cole Sanford, Joey Jackson, Andrew McIntyre and Colten Buxman all had a goal.

ittle pirates and princesses flashed their tickets and demanded entrance to the Fairytale Ball in the Old Kings Elementary School media center on Thursday, Feb. 18. All of the school’s students and their families were invited to the Pirates and Princesses Carnival, which was held to raise money for the kids’ school supplies and end-of-year field trips. Each grade level at OKES hosted a

Riley Frehrenkamp and Gracie Guister sword fight to the bumping music.

fun carnival booth game that offered candy and toy prizes.

Outside and away from the games, the students spent the evening sipping pirate punch in the courtyard and watching as Principal Benjamin Osypian suddenly dropped into a dunking booth. A petting zoo filled with rabbits, miniature horses and ducks was supplied

by Noah’s Landing.

“This carnival gave us a great opportunity to raise money for the kids, and get the families together for a fun-filled night,” said Kim Weeks, Old Kings Elementary media specialist and event coordinator. “I am pleased to say we have received tremendous community support and donations from local businesses to improve the students learning experiences.”

Throughout the night, each grade level collected the tickets received from the students that played each game. Each grade was then rewarded with funds based on the effort put into their carnival games.

IN-SCHOOL PETTING ZOO? Each grade level had their own hidden agenda behind their carnival game. The fifth-graders set up a Seven Dwarf Ring Toss to raise money toward an end of the year field trip to the Jacksonville Museum of Science and History, while the kindergartners held a Bippity-Boppity Boutique to raise money for an in-school petting zoo for the students.

“It can prove difficult to bring dozens of kindergartners on a field trip,” laughed an OKES kindergarten teacher. “So we decided it may be best to bring the field trip here.”

“The tickets collected for the Fairytale Ball will determine how much money will go towards buying new books for the media center,” Weeks said. “We keep a wish list of all the books the kids request to check out throughout the year. Whenever we receive the funds those are the books we purchase first.”

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

A reader shares her tale of shelter love.

I

received a lovely email from Lisa Perna last week about her pup, Nougat, who was adopted from the Flagler Humane Society.

Wanting a dog, but not up to the challenges of raising a puppy, Perna, her mother Marlene, and brother Dana headed to the Humane Society, where they found the perfect match.

Nougat, a cocker spaniel, was adopted on June 9, 2015. She might not be a pure cocker spaniel, but it doesn’t sound like they care. Her age is between 1 and 3 years old.

That’s the thing about shelter pups; usually they don’t come into the shelter with a lot of background information.

When people are surrendering a dog to a shelter, the staff asks a lot of questions. They aren’t being judgmental or nosey, they just want to be able to give

as much information as possible to the next owners.

Perna said she had never adopted a dog before, but it sounds like the family worked their way through the first couple of months with few problems. Moving into a new home can be stressful on a dog as they learn what is expected of them.

“She is adorable, has a sweet temperament and a lively attitude,” Perna said in an email.

“She loves going in the car, but does not like barking dogs or figure skating on TV. She will rush up to the television, barking ferociously if either of those things appears. Heaven help us if we ever see figure skating dogs on TV!” Nougat has a unique way to let the family know when she is hungry. She “steals” a slipper, shoe, or toy and runs into the kitchen and drops it.

My son Tristan often comments that we are pampering the dogs. The same can be said for Nougat. Her favorite place is on the sofa, and she has her very own, hand-knitted “blankie.”

“Adopting Nougat was absolutely the right choice for us. I can’t imagine life without her now,” Perna said, Looking for a dog or cat?

Go to your shelter and give a deserving animal a home.

“The kids in the programs are manning the booths and are able to share and communicate with all the community members here,” Shott said. “They can explain what their program is and what their learning experience has been in that flagship program.”

“They are our top salesmen,” Wheeler said.

Irina Scitich and her daughter Maria, who moved to Palm Coast from Kazakhstan, were all smiles as they walked back to their car.

“We came to this exhibition, and we liked it very much,” Scitich said. “There’s a lot of new technology and interesting

Parents can look forward to this becoming an annual event.

“This is the time, in the springtime, when families are starting to make selections,” Shott said. “In the high schools, program selection sheets will start going out in March or April.

It’s time to start thinking about that.”

here were two things that indicated the Flagship Showcase at Buddy Taylor Middle School was going to be a success: The parking lot was filled to capacity, and school communication information specialist Jason Wheeler was directing traffic.

“Classrooms to Careers” was presented in January 2015 to introduce the new flagship programs to local businesses and community members. The Flagship Showcase on Saturday, Feb. 20, did the same, except this time for parents and students.

“This year we opened it up to families in the community so they can see what is available for their children,” Director of Student and Community Involvement Lynette Shott said. “There’s so much going on around here it’s amazing.”

No one was sure how successful the event would be. Scheduled for 10 a.m. to noon on a Saturday with perfect spring weather — who would come? But 794 parents, grandparents and children

didn’t seem to mind spending part of their weekend at school.

“I think it’s fantastic. Turnout has been great,” BTMS Principal Nathan Lovelette said. “I have had so many people come and ask questions. They’ve known bits and pieces, but to actually lay everything out, it gives them a much better idea of what’s going on in the schools.”

Sixth-grade student Matthew Weick was one of the few outside, flying a drone under the supervision of Scott Barry, owner of CAVU Aerial Photography.

“I helped launch the drone program at Belle Terre Elementary,” Barry said. “They are learning about the science and math behind it, and how to fly them. The kids are doing an amazing job with it. They fly the drones better than some of the professionals do.”

Matthew flew the drone over the parking lot with ease.

“I am in the sixth grade, and I can say that I know how to fly a drone,” he said.

Robotics, flight simulators, food created by Matanzas High School culinary students, and a three-week old goat were just

It’s not your school superintendent’s high school library Bulldog Learning Commons is so inviting the adults want to go back to high school.

JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

When Flagler Schools Superintendent Jacob Oliva was asked what his high school library was like, he answered with no hesitation.

“It was not like this,” Oliva said.

“It was very traditional, and it was a place nobody wanted to go to. It wasn’t warm and inviting, and I remember that it was where our 10th-grade English class would take us to write our research paper.”

He wasn’t the only adult at the ribbon cutting of the Bulldog Learning Commons on Feb. 18, wishing their school had a place like this for studying.

The five community problem solving students, Judy Colindres, Kayla Dance, Ivana Moore, Vasthi Malvoisin and Sarah Dance, all wore their Project LINK (Learning and Incorporating New Knowledge) T-shirts as they gave tours of the Commons to more

than 50 people who came for the ribbon cutting.

Kayla and Judy selected this for the Community Problem Solving project last year.

FPC Principal Dusty Sims admitted that the extraordinary outcome was due to the fact that the planning was left up to the students.

“We as educators had to get out of the way and turn it over to ladies,” Sims said. “When we finally said, ‘let’s get out of the way and let you take over,’ they took it beyond our imaginations.”

Media specialist and Community Problem Solving Coach Sarah Reckenwald stepped away from her traditional role with the group.

“For this project we determined it would be better if I worked as a community partner, instead of a coach,” Reckenwald said.

The team brainstormed ideas with Reckenwald, and nearly all of the student’s ideas were approved. The one exception: bean bag chairs.

“That was one of the first ideas, and I thought we needed something more substantial,” Reckenwald said. “The furniture was purchased through capital dollars. Every school gets some

and Mr. Sims agreed we could use capital dollars to finish.”

The furniture selected is intended to accommodate different styles of learning. Round barrel-type stuffed chairs that move up and down and wobble slightly for students who aren’t comfortable sitting still as they study, oversized chairs, and a study couch were just some of the changes.

“We researched furniture and colors, and how they affect the studying space and how you learn” Sarah Dance said.

In keeping with the student designed theme, the artwork inside the double glass entry doors was a project done last year in Ed Beckett’s Digital Design 2

class.

“She (Sarah Reckenwald) wanted something abstract in design, and something in the same color scheme as the new Media Center colors (purple, gray and lime green),” Beckett said in an email.

“I gave them some direction on the whole abstract idea theme and turned them loose.”

The winning art was created by Giana Pubill.

The name, Bulldog Learning Commons, was also the result of a student survey.

The initial response from the student body has been supportive.

“More are coming in and using the area,” Sarah Dance said.

“Some come in for breakfast, and some don’t want to sit in the caf-

eteria, so they bring their lunch into the cafe area.”

For the average person or group, the project would have been over after the ribbon cutting.

Not for these five students. The students have their eyes on some underused space in a room behind the circulation desk. Their plans are to turn the room, which houses a laminator, paper, paper cutter, (and hopefully a 3-D printer one day) into a place for groups like the SGA to create their posters and do their creative projects.

“The next stage of our project is to get more teachers to use the Commons,” Sarah Dance said.

“Also to have more clubs use it after school, and maybe expand the hours.”

The sound of phones ringing continued throughout the day at Opulence by Spa Floridian Tuesday, Feb. 23, as a steady flow of teachers called to make appointments for a courtesy haircut. Adiel Hemingway, co-owner of Opulence by Spa Floridian, is pleased to be in a position to give back to the community.

“I feel that those who teach our children are often times overlooked, and that they deserve recognition,” Hemingway said.

“It is our duty to give back and say thank you to those who make a positive impact on our community.”

Opulence by Spa Floridian, located at 160 Cypress Point Parkway, Suite A109, will be offering free haircuts to select community members throughout the year. On March 29 and 31, the salon has chosen to recognize members of every branch of the United States Armed Forces. On April 26 and 28, Flagler County’s EMS workers and firefighters will receive recognition with fresh haircuts. May 8 will be set aside to celebrate Mother’s day,

and children are asked to write a short essay on “Why my mommy deserves a spa day,” to make their mom eligible for a free spa treatment and haircut. June 28 and 30 will be dedicated to the city and county employees. July 26 and 28 will honor all veterans of the United States Armed Forces.

August 23 and 25 will celebrate all kids going back to school with a fresh new look.

“As a hair stylist, any opportunity we have to give back and share our resources is one of our favorite parts of the job,” said Summer O’Neal, a Paul Mitchell hair stylist. “It is part of our business’ foundation to take on the responsibility of helping others within our community.”
