“What he had learned in school helped him and his little brother escape, which is wonderful and heartbreaking at the same time.” JAMES MENARD, Imagine School principal, who has spoken with the family every day since the fire

It was the smell of smoke that woke up 7-year-old Miller Clayton the night of Nov. 28. The house that he shared with his parents and two brothers in western Flagler County was engulfed in flames, and his father, 41-year-old Kevin Lee Clayton, would later be found dead inside its burned-out frame. Miller, who’d recently had a fire safety lesson at the Imagine School at Town Center, in Palm Coast, woke up his 4-year-old brother, Luke. He put blankets over both of their heads as they crawled out of the house, then ran to a neighbor’s home for help. The boys had seen their father lying unconscious with a gun next to him, according to a Sheriff’s Office report, but they didn’t try to wake him because they were afraid of angering him. Investigators would later rule Kevin Lee Clayton’s death an apparent suicide. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. With rescuers on the way, a neighbor called the boys’ mother, Amy, who was out of town with her 14-year-old son. “She called me and said, ‘Amy, your house is on fire, and we can’t get Kevin out,’” Amy Clayton said. “I fell to the ground.” “He was always a great and lovSEE HOME PAGE 4

“I get so much already,” said 12-year-old Nikolena Perrine as she discussed the reasons why she likes to give back to other kids. “Sharing with people who aren’t used to getting a lot — it’s exciting. It’s something they’ve never seen before.” For the past three years, Perrine, a Palm Coast resident, has lead her entire congregation at Providence Church in Ormond Beach in a packing party for Operation Christmas Child. The homeschooled student was motivated to help the cause after see-

ing a booth about the charity at a local fair. “She went home and started researching and watching videos of children receiving the boxes,” said her mother, Carol Perrine. “She went to Pastor Tim Mann herself and asked if she could be the spokesperson. He gave her the OK to be in charge of the entire project.” This year, the church packed 205 boxes full of toys, hygiene items and school supplies for children around the world who are not fortunate enough to get Christmas presents. “I like that it not only gives them presents, but also shows them the word of the Lord,” Nikolena said. “I love the way it witnesses to them. Attached on the shoebox is what’s called ‘The Greatest Journey.’ It’s kind of like a shortened story from the Bible that’s written in their language.” “She has a love for children and mission,” her mother said. “Her goal is to someday be able to be a part of Operation Christmas Child and actually deliver the packages to children herself.”

Fantasy Lights in Central Park:

Palm Coast welcomes the holiday season To kick off the holiday season, citizens of Palm Coast gathered Monday, Nov. 30, to admire the 10thannual Fantasy Light display and the 25-foot decorated, Pinus Clausa, Christmas tree.

r. and Mrs. Claus decided to take a vacation to tropical Palm Coast, on Monday, Nov. 30. After making a grand entrance on board a Flagler County fire engine, the Clauses made their way toward the front of the crowd to help Palm Coast Mayor Jon Netts and Rotary Club of Flagler County President Matt Maxell pull the lever to light up an extravagant Christmas tree. “Five, four, three, two, one!” the citizens of Palm Coast shouted. In moments, a 25-foot sand pine, or pinus clausa, that had been shaped into a massive Christmas tree, illuminated Central Park at Palm Coast’s Town Center. The city of Palm Coast kicks off the monthlong Fantasy Lights event every year with the tree lighting ceremony. The pinus clausa was garnished with glistening strands of lights and ornaments created by the Flagler County Girl Scout troops Nos. 966, 754, 872 and 1527, as well as students from Bunnell Elementary School. The Fantasy Light display, hosted by the Rotary Club of Flagler County, continues to grow every year. This year the event boasted 40 displays, courtesy of various local businesses. “Any place can be a city, but not everywhere can be a true community,” Fantasy Lights Committee Chairman Bill Butler said. “The Fantasy Lights have become a holiday tradition for many families. The kids always come away smiling.”

Shirley Chisholm’s birthday celebrated with hope for the future Her goddaughter is working toward a national holiday for the congresswoman. JACQUE ESTES STAFF WRITER

Charles Bethune and Marya Bosley stand by a painting of Shirley Chisholm at a birthday celebration on Monday, Nov. 30.

TIME IN WASHINGTON

In 1968, Shirley Chisholm made history by becoming the United States’ first African-American congresswoman, serving seven terms in the House of Representatives. She was a founding member of the Congressional Black Caucus, and the first majorparty African-American candidate to make a bid for the U.S. presidency, in 1972.

Standing in the East Room of the White House at the Medal of Freedom Ceremony on Tuesday, Nov. 24, Palm Coast resident Marya Bosley watched President Barack Obama recognize her godmother, Shirley Chisholm. “When he announced her name, it was like the whole room was in awe,” Bosley said. Once, when asked how she would like to be remembered, Chisholm, who died in January, had responded, “I’d like them to say that Shirley Chisholm had guts.” “President Obama said, ‘I’m proud to say it: Shirley Chisholm had guts,’” Bosley said. “To have somebody so close to you to be honored like that — it was so

amazing,” she said. “The love was exuberant and so giving. We are in awe of the honor.” On Monday,Nov.30,Chisholm’s birthday, a celebration was held at COWORK by Office Divvy on Airport Road. Guest speakers included Randy Roker, film director, who met Chisholm for the first time in the early 1970s when he was helping put together the first NAACP Image Awards. “Someone said Shirley Chisholm was going to come, but I didn’t believe it,” he said. “She told us, in a nice, but firm way — ‘you’d better do a good job.’” Cornelia Manfre worked as an intern in Congress while Chisholm was a congresswoman and showed a photo book each student was given of the congressmen in office. Chisholm

signed the book for her when she lived in Palm Coast. Chisholm lived in Palm Coast from 1991 to 2003, finally moving to Halifax Plantation in Ormond Beach, so she could be next door to her best friends, Bosley’s parents. Bosley was with her when she died on Jan. 1, 2015. “I had just finished painting her fingernails,” she said. “My daughter asked why Aunt Shirley was crying. She had passed.” “It is my time, and I am carrying on my godmother’s legacy,” Bosley said. “Congresswoman Barbara Lee got her on a stamp and her picture is in the Rotunda, now it’s time for her to have a national holiday.” Bosley knows the task won’t be easy, but said she’s up to the challenge. “I am going to be like my godmother and have guts,” she said. “I want my granddaughter to look back one day and say, ‘My grandmother made a difference.’”

In the fire’s aftermath, Amy Clayton has found an overwhelming amount of community support: Between online donations and a collection at her Realty Pros office, the community has raised over $10,000 to help the family rebuild their lives. Realtors Bill Navarra and Caryn Baker, who work at Realty Pros Assured in Ormond Beach with Amy Clayton, started a Go Fund Me account to help Amy and the children get back on their feet. “They lost everything,” Narvarra said. “We’re trying to get the family into a rental, get new clothes, dishes, everything. Everything was destroyed. She’s been my assistant for 10 years, and she has the biggest heart in the company. She is the heart of the company. Just an amazing

person.” “Amy is one of the nicest people you could ever hope to know,” Baker said. “She’s also incredibly strong and resilient, so I know she’ll pull through this.” Amy Clayton said she was overwhelmed with gratitude and appreciation. “I can’t believe the kindness and compassion of people willing to help us, especially perfect strangers,” she said. “I feel like all of that helps me know that we are going be OK.”

What we talk about when we talk about salaries Observer

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

In the Nov. 24 City Council meeting, Mayor Jon Netts introduced a new wrinkle into the debate about Palm Coast City Council salaries. I’ve always felt there isn’t any harm in reviewing the Charter, which sets the salaries; in fact, it’s healthy for a community to

examine why we do the things we do. Many have accused City Councilman Steven Nobile, who has been the sole council member promoting a Charter review, of doing it for political reasons only. But I’ve spoken with Nobile on a few occasions about the subject, and I believe his motives are good. He’s not trying to get a raise for himself (pay adjustments wouldn’t go into effect until after the next election at least), but to enable people who are less financially secure to have an option to run for office. Is this the right move? I don’t know, but it’s good to at least have the discussion. Currently, council members make $9,600, which essen-

tially makes it a volunteer position; it’s a $9,600 stipend to offset some of the costs of the time required to attend meetings and other community events. Should they make more? Should members be paid for working full time, just as the School Board members and county commissioners are? To help provide context to the discussion, Councilman Bill McGuire asked Mayor Jon Netts how the city had decided on council member pay when the city incorporated in 1999. “Arbitrarily,” Netts said. “So much that went into that first City Charter was designed to encourage people to support it, so they picked a low number.” If there is a good way to

determine salaries, “arbitrarily” is certainly not it. And what people would support in 1999 is not a good indication of what people will support in 2015. Instead, because the City Council voted against forming a review committee composed of citizens, the City Council itself is debating salaries, thanks to Nobile’s leadership. That might be better than nothing, but it’s not enough. How can the council members appear to be impartial about their own salaries? A committee of residents is the only way to do it. Let’s run our city by reason, after informed debate. We shouldn’t be content to have anything in our Charter be arbitrary.

Membership prices have been adjusted to help reach goal

n Belle Terre club brought me to Palm Coast 10 years ago

Dear Editor: We are more than half way to our goal of 400 members to save the club, with two months to go. We have already made many changes to the operations of the club to make it a more community-oriented facility. We will be holding our second open house event 1-4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 5, inviting the entire community to come out and enjoy the facility with free food and entertainment for the entire family. We will even have a visit from Santa. Once we have reached our membership benchmark, we plan on expanding the hours of operation, getting new gym equipment and making other changes to have the club better serve the community. Some tried to frame the debate on the saving of the club as some seniors-vs.-kids fight. The club is made of every age group, from toddlers to seniors in their 90s — yes, in their 90s, and still working out at the gym. These same seniors cast a unanimous vote to reduced the price of membership for teenagers and free for all kids 12 and under. That’s not exactly the actions of self-serving seniors.

month if you sign up for auto debit with the annual membership plan. We have priced our membership to be competitive with the other gyms in town once you factor in their hidden fees. The plans at the Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club are straight forward — no gimmicks or hidden fees. Thanks to these same seniors, membership for families has been greatly reduced. A single mother can now join the club and work out in the gym, while her kids play tennis or enjoy free use of the pool. Gone are the daily fees that act as a barrier to kids coming out and enjoying themselves. Now when the kids say they want to go to the pool, mom can’t say it costs too much. We offer everything the other gyms offer, plus tennis courts and the only heated pool in Flagler County. You can’t beat that deal. Join us at Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club, 73 Patricia Drive, Palm Coast, FL 32164. Call 446-6717.

Club is a mental and physical life line Dear Editor: I would like to let everyone know about the Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club. This club has been both mentally and physically a life line for me. I have met wonderful people there. People who I have become friends with and have provided me with information on all different topics. For example, I have gotten educated on all the different medical plans, including Silver Sneakers, good doctors, good restaurants, good places to visit and shops, and all this while I am exercising in the pool. The Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club has become a very important part of my life, my health and wellbeing. To see it close would be a terrible injustice to the community. ELAINE BRODSKY Palm Coast

Disabled husband has seen increased health thanks to the club Dear Editor: As current members of the Belle Terre Swim and Racquet Club, we would like to say how important the pool has been to both my husband and me. My husband, John, is a disabled Vietnam veteran who uses the pool four to five times per week. Two years ago when we joined, he was walking with a cane due to his neuropathy in his legs and feet. He also has a degenerative problem with his hips and lower back. Because of his swimming, his health has greatly improved. I use both the pool and gym and enjoy using both for my arthritis and back problems. If the Flagler County School Board decides to close the pool in 2016, there is no alternative pool to use for swimming and exercise. This facility is important to all the members in Palm Coast.

Bunnell resident John Robert Stubbs found dead, bloodied outside his home on Drain Street Police are investigating the death as an apparent homicide. JONATHAN SIMMONS NEWS EDITOR

Jonathan Simmons

FDLE officers investigate the death of John R. Stubbs in Bunnell.

Stubbs’ family. “Everybody in the community loved him,” Jones said. “He hustled, washing cars. He worked hard. He was a young man with a good head on his shoulders. He was trying to do something.” Burnell City Manager Larry Williams said that investigators had searched the exterior of the home and had obtained a war-

rant to search the interior as well, because the house had been a site of drug activity in the past. “Right now it is an apparent homicide,” Williams said. “It appears to be a homicide, but we don’t have that for sure.” Williams said Stubbs’ shirt had been bloodied, but police have not yet released more information about how he died.

John Robert Stubbs, a lifelong Flagler County resident, was found dead and bloodied outside his doorstep on Drain Street in Bunnell the morning of Nov. 27. Bunnell Police and Flagler County Sheriff’s Office deputies are investigating the death as an apparent homicide. Stubbs, who relatives said served with the U.S. Marines for about eight years, was wellknown in the area for detailing residents’ cars, said onlookers who’d gathered in a crowd outside the crime scene tape surrounding Stubbs’ home at 502 Drain St. Stubbs, 46, also had a history of drug-related arrests in Flagler County, including one for cocaine trafficking, according to Sheriff’s Office records. Stubbs’ body lay under a white sheet next to his orange car-wash pail into the late afternoon Nov. 27 as Bunnell police officers, Flagler County Sheriff’s Office deputies, Florida Department of Law Enforcement crime scene investigators and staff from the medical examiners office investigated. “He was a good man. Washed everybody’s cars, trying to make a dollar,” said Stubbs’ younger brother Eddie Bryant, a logger

Leadership Flagler seeks donations for Family Life Center

Help available for smokers who want to quit

This year’s Leadership Flagler class is seeking donations for a backyard makeover for the Family Life Center, which operates the only certified domestic violence shelter in Flagler County. The existing backyard play area for the children is too small and needs new playground equipment, safety improvements and a shaded patio area. The planned backyard project includes expanding the fenced backyard area, re-sodding the yard, building a pergola to provide shade, updating/replacing playground equipment, re-planting two large garden boxes and painting a mural on the fence. The project will cost about $9,000, a portion of which has already been raised from the Leadership Flagler class. Donations are taxdeductible and can be made at familylifecenterflagler.org/backyardmakeover.html. Checks can be sent o the Family Life Center, P.O. Box 2058, Bunnell, FL 32110. Leadership Flagler is also accepting donations of supplies like sod, garden plants and building materials. For more information contact Cindi Lane at 986-3708 or clane@ palmcoastgov.com.

The following is adapted from a Flagler County communications office news release: Tobacco Free Florida set up an informational display in the Government Services Building to send one clear message: There is help for smokers in Flagler County who are interested in kicking the habit. “We are here to help,” said Teresa Williams, Tobacco Program Manager for the Tobacco Free Flagler Partnership. “We can provide nicotine replacement patches. There are classes, and you can keep coming back through the program if you need to.” Fliers were distributed to advertise a “Quit Smoking Now” class that will be held in January at Florida Hospital Flagler. Those interested can call 877-784-8486 for additional information or to register. Victor DeNoble, a fired researcher for Philip Morris, tobacco company whisle-blower and prominent anti-smoking campaigner, is coming to Rymfire Elementary in May to speak to students. “We want to catch them young,” Williams said. “Victor DeNoble will make quite an impression on them.” Portions of the 15-minute “Anatomy of a Puff” can be seen on YouTube at youtube. com/watch?v=PkyjzNOYHlw.

Man charged with throwing eggs, spuds at deputies Deputies have charged a 20-year-old Palm Coast man with felony aggravated assault, saying he chucked raw eggs and potatoes at four of them as they investigated a suspicious incident around 10:30 p.m. Nov. 24. Deputies were called to investigate a loud banging noise coming from outside a reporting person’s bedroom window at 1 Ritchie Place. Anthony Fennick, 20, asked why the deputies were there. When they told him, he thanked them and went inside. But then Deputy Austin Chewning noticed a potato cut in half land in the roadway behind another deputy’s patrol car. Another egg struck the front passenger side door of Chewning’s vehicle, nearly striking him and another deputy. Deputies saw

three more broken eggs on the road in front of Richardson Drive, along with a potato and some kind of citrus fruit. Two deputies then spoke with Fennick. Deputies searching him found an egg in his front left pocket. They arrested him. Deputies said Fennick had been found near an air conditioning unit at 4 Richelieu Lane, where someone had pried open a window screen. Deputies interviewed Fennick’s mother and stepfather and asked whether they’d recently purchased eggs. They had, and five eggs were missing from their dozen: a number equal to the four eggs tossed at deputies plus the one egg found in Fennick’s pocket. Deputies also found two bags of potatoes on the kitchen counter, along with a serrated knife that had been recently used. Fennick was charged with four counts of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer and other charges. faster wind speeds, and are more likely to occur at night.

City plans dialogue with county about radios JONATHAN SIMMONS NEWS EDITOR

Palm Coast, after demanding release from a 2009 agreement with Flagler County over a shared 800 MHz radio system, would like to talk things over, city officials said at a Dec. 1 City Council meeting. “This is another (issue) I think we need to put on that County Commission/City Council (meeting) agenda so that we can figure out together how we’re going make sure that we have emergency communications that are reliable, that works for all parties, and how we’re going to work together to pay for it — and not just the cost, but the whole network of how it works,” City Manager Jim Landon said at the meeting. “The Sheriff’s (Office), the other cities — we’re all in this together; it’s not just the city and the county.” The city ran its own radio system before 2009, when it agreed to join the county’s system and place $300,000 per year in escrow for five years to offset the cost of sys-

tem upgrades. The city did so for three years, then stopped and demanded its $900,000 back, saying the county was seeking to upgrade the system in a manner incompatible with the 2009 agreement. If the city wants out of the agreement and tries to get its $900,000 back, County Administrator Craig Coffey told the city in a Nov. 19 letter, “radio users from the City will be generally limited to emergency first responders.” The radio system is now used for emergency services like the Sheriff’s Office staff and fire rescue, but also for public works and utility crews. Coffey called the allegations outlined in City Attorney Bill Reischmann’s email to county officials about the issue — charging that the county is, rather than simply upgrading the system, preparing to replace it at a cost of $20 million, without appropriate city input — “outlandish accusations.” But at the Dec. 1 meeting, Landon again laid out the city’s complaints. When the 2009 agreement was signed, he said, “We anticipated needing additional users, additional radios, and so we agreed that we would set money aside to accommodate the expansion of that system. And at that time the experts all got together both from the city and the county; they estimated that the expansion would be about $3 million.”

The city agreed to set aside $1.6 million at a rate of $300,000 per year to offset that cost, he said, “And then, three years later, after we’d paid three years worth, $900,000, the county unilaterally decided that they were going to do a different system, and they announced that they were not expanding the system that we had jointly worked together on. So they basically announced that that expansion plan that we had been setting money aside for was not going to happen.” The county did so “for technology reasons,” he said. “They had learned that the whole communication, the wireless communication technology was going to change, and it made no sense to expand one that was going to be out of date. ... So obviously the city said, ‘Well, if you’re not going to actually expand the system as was said in the agreement, then we shouldn’t be paying for it.” Coffey said in an email to Reischamann that a planned transfer to a digital 800 MHz system is being undertaken at county expense and is an “improvement,” not an upgrade covered under the 2009 agreement. Landon said at the meeting that the city “would definitely contribute to the expansion — we pay for our radios and those types of things — but what we’re asking for is for us to be involved in decisions as to what that system’s going to look like, jointly, just like we did back in 2009 and work something out, so that we have some confi-

dence and reliability.” Palm Coast Mayor Jon Netts said it was time for a reevaluation. “Without a mutual agreement, we are held hostage for writing a blank check,” he said. “We need to know what the capacity of the system is, we need to share with the county what our expansion plans are, if any, and we need to come to some understanding about how the cost is going to be shared, and we as a City Council need that information sooner rather than later so that we can start budgeting for it. I will not be sitting here in 2021, but I will be standing out in that audience screaming bloody murder if the City Council says, ‘OK, you’ve got to come up with $20 million,’ because we need to be able to plan this, we need to be able to have an agreement. And I think after all the rhetoric goes away, we will be able to sit down with the county and talk about what our plans are for a new system.”

Without a workable agreement, the city is ‘held hostage for writing a blank check,’ Mayor Jon Netts said.

Corporate 1 Plaza, the original home of the ITT headquarters in Palm Coast and the Flagler Institute of Technology, sits vacant on 7.4 acres of land between the East and West bound lanes of Palm Coast Parkway. At the Flagler County School Board meeting on Tuesday, Dec. 1, the board voted 3-1 (Janet McDonald voted against, and Sue Dickinson was absent), to put out bids for the demolition of the property. The options for the building presented at the Nov. 5, 2014, meeting were to put the property up for sale as is for six months, maintain the vacant property at a cost of approximately $70,000 a year, or bulldoze the building and

No interest was shown in the property while it was on the market. The staff requested a 30-day Request For Proposal for the demolishment of Corporate 1; a time-frame during the holidays that concerned School Board Chairwoman Colleen Conklin. The board agreed to amend the proposal to extend the bid process to 45 days. There were suggestions from the public to reconsider refurbishing the building, instead of demolishing, something School Board member Andy Dance was not in favor of. “I was a tenant in that building, and the problems are laughable, and the value is over rated,” he said. Dance cited issues with the elevator, smells, roof leakage and bad design. “The land value will increase more without the building,” he said.

25 YEARS

Flagler Palm Coast alumni returned to the field to celebrate the program’s quarter-century anniversary. JEFF DAWSEY SPORTS EDITOR

o celebrate its 25-year history, Flagler Palm Coast welcomed back some its past Lady Bulldogs to play an alumni game and be recognized for individual and team accomplishments Wednesday, Nov. 25, at FPC. “I was asked to do something like this on previous anniversaries, but I never wanted to do it,” said coach Peter Hald, who began the program. “When Chelsea Barney and Cat Bradley came to me about this, I thought it was a good idea, but I had no idea it would be as big as it is.” It was a night down memory lane to remember some of the best players and to recognize

ALL-AREA PLAYERS OF THE YEAR Casey Lademann (2006, 2007), Dana Robins (2009, 2010), Haley Lademann (2012)

Haley Lademann was the goal keeper on the 2012 team with the most shutouts in a season.

distinct players. The girls’ soccer first team and class were honored. Skyler Meekins, a 2008 graduate, was remembered with an extended moment of silence. Assistant coach Cat Bradley was recognized as the “Ultimate Warrior” for demonstrating tremendous courage and determination during her liver transplant stretch. Also, FPC honored the only mother-daughter tandem, Dina Lopez DeMartino (1992) and Victoria Martins (2013). Along with those, special acknowledgment was given to “soccer sisters.” Just on the night of the anniversary, 10 sets of sisters stood together, from various classes. Then, the game began. The earlier graduating classes took the field first in the greenwhite game, and the ladies quickly drew a lot of “oohs and ahhs” as they showed they still had it. Although the game might have been an exhibition, it didn’t lack physical play, heady goal keeper diving saves and a desire to win. Tiffany Brown (’08) put the ball in the net for the first score in the 14th minute for green, and, just four minutes into the second half, Kate Fassnacht-Romberger (’97) scored to tie the game for the white team. With under five minutes remaining in the game, Morgan Weinberg scored the game-winning goal for green. Green’s goal keeper, Haley Lademann, made an acrobatic save against her sister Casey Lademann’s shot attempt with a minute to go. “The amount of people who came back and flew in just for Coach Hald was truly amazing,” Bradley said. “Some of the biggest names to ever play in the area were here, and it’s even cooler to

think about all of these ladies who have gone off and become incredible people.” At the conclusion of the game, the Lady Bulldogs, their families and friends all embraced on the field for the “one night only” memory. “It was such an amazing night for all of us,” Hald said. “I’m glad I decided to do this. The girls actually surprised me; they showed a lot of skills. But, they all mean a lot to me, and I’m glad I was able to influence them in some way.”

Skyler Meekins, who was killed in 2008, was remembered by the team.

Madison Hald scored the game-winning goal to help her father get win No. 400.

GETTING THE 400TH WIN Coach Peter Hald recently reached 400 wins in his career with a 2-1 decision over Buchholz on Nov. 6, in Gainesville. With less than two minutes to play in the game, tied at 1-1, Bella Giuliano found Hald’s daughter, Madison, who beat the last defender and scored the game-winning goal. “I was very happy for him, and it made it even more special that I got to be the one to score the winning goal,” Madison Hald said. Christen Barney and Patricia Butler get physical during the exhibition match.

Inspired by Coach Hald

y dream of one day coaching high school basketball or football was elevated a week ago. I’m still relatively young, and it helps that I get front-row seats at the games and inside conversations with current coaches as a sports writer. After covering FPC’s Lady Bulldogs’ 25-year anniversary game, not only do I want to coach, but I want to coach one team for a long time. I’ve never attended a reunion of any sort, whether a school, family or team reunion, so to see dozens of ladies represent a collection of a quarter of a century was moving. A lot of those women have gone on to become successful businesswomen, mothers and wives, and they would all agree that coach Pete Hald has greatly influenced them in some way. High school years are some of the most important years of our lives. We learn to become adults, so coaches and teachers, who act as authorities for a great amount of that time, play a vital role in that four-year period. Through memorable wins, heartbreaking losses, disciplined practices and conflicts with teammates, the coach is always present, and not merely as a spectator. Hald mentioned how his players came from the West and Northeast to celebrate with him just for that one night. A lot of coaches can’t generate that same outcome, having over 50 players return for an exhibition game. It takes a lot for a coach to reach 25 years for one team. There has to be continued success. A few bad years may result in firing, and the coach needs to remain healthy. The coach’s rapport with the community and players’ parents has to remain consistent, and then there are other opportunities that come knocking with success. Also, the coach can’t get bored. Hald says he’s received multiple coaching offers from other girls’ programs and boys’ jobs, but he turned them all down. He had a vision for the FPC Lady Dawgs’ soccer program, and he wanted to live it out. I want to lead a program like Hald. Years and years after my initial beginning, I’d like to host an anniversary game, where I can gaze out and observe all of the fruit of my labor and walk off the field or court, knowing that dozens of men or women are great contributors to society because I touched their lives in a special way. Thanks, Mr. Hald, for influencing beyond the pitch.

NEW PIRATES ON THE DOCK Matanzas High School boys basketball has changed its entire roster for the 2015 season.

PIRATES ROSTER Aaron Goodwin, the only returning varsity player, Troy Buchanan, Saidumar Umarov, Nikolas Polite, Jacob Miley, Andrew Panameno, Seve Garris, Cameron Rees, David Kabamba, Devin Mathews, Ali Beydoun

JEFF DAWSEY STAFF WRITER

The Matanzas Pirates lost their two best players, Tahiem Shakir and Madison Mlinac, to graduation last season, but that was only the beginning. In all, only one player from last year’s team remained, Aaron Goodwin. “Well, it sucks that no one came back because we had some good players, but the new guys have done good adjusting,” Goodwin said. “I like how our team is this year — probably because we’re all smart people. We work really well together as a unit.” In spite of only returning one varsity player, coach Dan Toblin already likes what he sees in his young team, which currently has

a winning record. “We graduated a lot of leadership, and our point guard from last year had grade issues, so he wasn’t allowed to play,” he said. “Both of our post players decided that basketball wasn’t for them, so we’re new and young again. With being so young, it’s actually great, because multiple guys are stepping up to be one great leader. I tell the guys all the time that it’s five guys playing as one.” Through their first few games, Toblin credits his guys for coming together and working on their goal to get better each day. “Getting everyone to gel was, initially, very difficult, just to try to figure out everyone’s personality,” Toblin said. “Once they all bought in and figured out that everyone can be leaders but have different slices of the pie, they started to gel and figured out their roles. We’re not where we want to be — nowhere close. But, we’re headed in the right direction.” The Pirates will next play Pine Ridge Friday, Dec. 4, in Deltona.

15K runners are in high spirits as they start the race.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE FINISHERS Top finishers for the 15K First place: Brandon Roa at 58:38 Second place: David Morden at 1:04:24 Third place: Sterling Dutton III at 1:05:01 Top finishers for the 5K First place: Owen Wing at 18:11 Second place: Bryce Cole at 18:25 Third place: Spencer Mellow at 18:52 More race results can be found at bit.ly/1MIpzh2.

unners dressed as Thanksgiving turkeys and Native Americans flooded the Indian Trails Middle School track early Thanksgiving morning. This year marked the fourth-annual Feet to Feast 5/15K run, as a part of the Palm Coast Running Series. The 15K runners started first, at 7:45 a.m., with the 5K runners following 10 minutes behind. The race course took the runners along the sidewalks and trails. “I am doing this so I can go home and eat a lot without feeling guilty,” said 5K runner Jill Softley. “(This is) our precursor to

eating,” Amanda Pannone joked. This was the first year the two ladies dressed up as Native Americans to run 3.1 miles. Many families have made the Feet to Feast run a Thanksgiving Day tradition. “This year we have 11 family members running the 5K together,” Priscilla Saunders said. “Last year I think there was 18 of us.” Once runners completed the race, a healthy breakfast was provided to start off a full day of feasting.

Karen Monroe reads a poem at McAllister’s funeral.

A Confederate grave site at Espanola Cemetery.

ESPANOLA CEMETERY

Founded in 1875, the Espanola Cemetary is one of the major cemeteries for families who settled Flagler County, including the Tuckers, Buckles, Varns, Moodys, and Codys, to name a few.

wenty mourners pulled into the Espanola Cemetery on Sunday, Nov. 29, to pay respects to Steve “Mac” McAllister, a man 18 of them didn’t know. Crinolines rustled beneath coal black hoop skirts, veils cascaded past shoulders completely concealing the faces, and men dressed in Confederate gray soldier uniforms stood at attention on either side of the grave site. Funeral processions like McAllister’s had occurred before at the ceremony, as was indicated by a nearby marker indicating the resting place of James Raulerson, “Florida, Pvt CO 13 REGT FLA INF, Confederate States Army, 1828-1911.” The cemetery could have been much like it was when Pvt. Raulerson was laid to rest. Live Oaks draped with Spanish moss, the strains of “Dixie” greeting the mourners. The couple who truly knew McAllister were Pat and Karen Monroe, his executors, and the individuals determined that he would get his final wish as a historian and member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans. “He was such a gentleman,” Karen Monroe said. “He was very quiet and very passionate about Civil War history.”

When the Monroes moved to Florida five years ago from North Carolina, their friend, knowing he would soon succumb to cancer, followed them. “He didn’t want to be buried in the cold,” Pat Monroe said, choking back tears. “Mac came here (to the grave site) two months before he died. He liked it there. Mr. Mercer let us inter his ashes on our site.” Ray Mercer, former Bunnell postmaster and a member of the board of trustees for the cemetery, also attended the funeral. “They (Monroes) decided they wanted to be buried here when their time comes, with their friend,” Mercer said. “Normally you must be a member of the community, but there are a few exceptions.” A member of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, General William W. Loring Camp 1316 in St. Augustine, McAllister was only able to attend a couple of meetings prior to his death in June 2015. McAllister served with the U.S. Marines in Vietnam, then became a police officer. The service began with the Pledge of Allegiance to the U.S. flag, followed by a salute to the Confederate flag. Keeping with tradition, each lady, members of the United Daughters of the Confederacy, was presented with a white carnation to lay atop the grave site.

I write this on the day after Thanksgiving, when many are using this time to pull out the Christmas ornaments. A fascinating time for dogs, cats, and yes, birds. I really cannot explain my thought process last year when, after the decorations were up, I decided to let Rosie the African grey out of her cage. Her first stop? The tree, of course, which

seemed to be a big surprise to her as she hung perilously, awaiting rescue. Cats also seem to be drawn to trees, and understandably so, since the trees are adorned with shiny baubles and twinkling lights. Dogs, on the other hand, seem to be interested in what can be interpreted as food on the tree, whether it be a candy cane or dog bone ornament. And at the bottom is a thoughtfully placed bowl of water to wash it all down. My suggestion is to decorate as if you have a swarm of 2-year-old children in your house that can jump and fly. Of course you want to protect the precious ornaments you have collected over the years. If you have a pet that is going to be attracted to the tree, may I suggest displaying these in a curio or china cabinet? There is no such thing as “high enough” on the tree for the cat that wants to play with the ceramic angel topper that has been in your family for generations. For pups you can take the swimming pool fence approach, and block off that side of the room or encircle the tree with baby gates. Just know this only has a chance of keeping the pups out. I say “chance” because you’ve just put

up a lot of temptation, and for the motivated pup, a fence will be no challenge. Like children, pets put things in their mouths and there are many things that are not healthy for your pets to ingest. The list includes, but is not limited to, tinsel, strung popcorn, candy, electrical outlets and wrappings. Many holiday plants, such as lilies, poinsettia and mistletoe, are toxic to pets. The water under the tree may start out as fresh tap water, but many trees have preservatives, you may have added aspirin to keep the tree fresh, and pesticides can leach into the water. Use a tree stand with a covered dish and watch your pets. Those who use artificial trees do not have to worry about the water, but do make sure that, like the live trees, your pet doesn’t chew on anything he shouldn’t. There are gifts under the tree for pets, oh but which one? You dog may have to open each one, just to find his, and hopefully he doesn’t swallow any ribbon while he searches. The best, and easiest, solution is to place the tree in a room that can be closed off from the pets completely. If this is not possible, consider having a special area of the house for the pets away from the decorations. If this is not possible, keep an eye on your pets and hang the ornaments high. It is also a good time to reintroduce them to their crates so they can be out of harm’s way when you are out of the house or have company.

When Loads of Smiles first opened in South Daytona, there were three children in their care. Fast-forward two years and the day treatment center for medically complex children is currently at capacity with 50 children, has a growing wait list and recently opened their second location in Flagler Beach. “There’s always a need,” said owner and Ormond Beach resident Christine Belz. “One of our biggest challenges has been getting our name out to the community,” Belz’s sister and faculty administrator, Sandy Cornelius, said. “There are not a lot of facilities like ours, and we’ll be the only one in Flagler.” Since the two sisters opened Loads of Smiles in 2013, in honor of Belz’s son (see the box below), they’re learning how to treat each family and child with unique care

Christine Belz’s son, Zachary Belz, was born with cystic fibrosis in 1998. For the first two-and-a-half years of his life, he was on a ventilator. When he was finally free of the machine and able to come out of his bedroom, he would still tense up and have trouble breathing. One day, Christine Belz took him into the laundry room, and he seemed to be soothed. She figured out that the hum of the washing machine took the place of the ventilator and monitor that Zachary had lived with throughout most of his young life. After a while, Zachary associated Tide detergent, his mother’s brand, with the feeling of security. He would carry an empty bottle around the house and seemed comforted. After double lung surgery, Zachary died in 2008. For the funeral, Belz designed T-shirts for everyone to wear that were similar to the Tide’s logo. Centered on the shirt was Zachary’s picture, and the logo read “Loads of Smiles.”

Christine Belz with one of the many kids she watches over

and to continue living by their mission statement, which is: “Through the endearing spirit of my special son, Zachary, we will ensure the brightest future possible for all children we serve. We will strive to optimize each child’s potential and provide him or her with the highest quality of life possible through caring and nurturing hands.” “It’s very rewarding to see the growth of the children,” Cornelius said. “The goal is always for them to get better and be able to move on, but in reality that doesn’t happen with all the children. Some of them will be here until they are 21.” Though working with a sibling can come with its own unique set of challenges, the two ladies said it’s easier than they expected. “It’s never challenging,” Belz said. “We both see eye-to-eye a lot. My weakness are her strengths.” The Flagler location opened Nov. 17. The ladies will host a open house at that location from 3 to 6 p.m. Jan. 15.

Caliber Collision and Allstate assist veteran Andre Rosa Jr. with a newly refurbished vehicle.

Military Veteran gets free car As a “thank you” for his service, Caliber Collision and Allstate Insurance presented military veteran Andre Rosa Jr. with keys to a newly refurbished vehicle as part of the National Auto Body Council’s Recycled Rides program. Recycled Rides is a nationwide community service program in which collision repair companies, insurers and others in the collision industry collaborate to repair and donate vehicles to families in need. Allstate donated the vehicle, and technicians at Caliber Collision donated their personal time as a community service. Rosa, a second-generation U.S. Army soldier, served 23 years with two tours in Afghanistan and one tour in Iraq. While serving his last tour, Rosa was medically retired

CROSSWORD

due to a traumatic brain injury, PTSD and other service-connected injuries. Due to his medical need, he lives with a “medical provider” couple in their home. With a low income and no transportation, Rosa walked to work approximately four miles daily. Having a vehicle of his own opens the door for better employment opportunities as well as easier access to medical appointments, more frequent visits and time to spend with his daughter, and overall better quality of life. In the past three years, Caliber Collision has donated more than 75 Recycled Rides vehicles nationwide. Caliber plans on donating more than 25 vehicles in 2015 to individuals in need as a way to give back to the communities that Caliber serves. Caliber Collision is located at 3 Market Place Court. Call 446-0224.

Tax collectors give to the hospital The Flagler County Tax Collectors office donated $2,422 to Florida Hospital Flagler’s Pink Army campaign, which provides screening mammograms, diagnostic studies and education to local women in need on Nov. 10. Throughout October, each clerk station at the tax collector’s offices placed specially-designated jars to receive donations from taxpayers to benefit the Florida Hospital Flagler Pink Army.

Realty Exchange is transitioning its main office to Island Walk in early 2016, which will occupy 6,845 square feet of office space, compared to its first location, at 800 Belle Terre Parkway, Unit 110, which was only 1,400 square feet. The new office will include a conference room to hold meetings, but both offices will still be in use for day-to-day operations. “We chose this new location due to many reasons,” said Realty Exchange Marketing Director Sean Santore. “It is centrally located in the heart of Palm Coast,

this, as it is also recognition of a Palm Coast resident’s contribution to the various Central Florida International Chambers and other economic entities in Central Florida,”

and we needed a larger office due to the fact that we are growing and want to provide our agents a larger office to work.” Hours of operation for the new location will be 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday. Renovations have already begun. Visit instagram.com/realtyexchangefl or facebook.com/RealtyExchangeLlcTownCenter, to see behind the scenes. Realty Exchange currently employs 70 Realtors and nine full-time office staff employees. To apply for available realtor positions, contact owner Dave Petkovsek 627-3182 or owner Julie Sabine 931-6311.

Muneer said. “I would like to spend more time in Palm Coast in bringing some of my experience to benefit the local entities.”
