Parents of TikTok victim to press charges Daytona Beach Police said officers have been working with the parents and Seabreeze High School since Jan. 31 to address the incident.

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Two Seabreeze High School students will face charges by Daytona Beach Police due to a video circulating on social media that shows them tripping another student.

The video, uploaded to the popular social network platform TikTok, shows the two girls kicking the student’s legs out from under her mid-jump. Daytona Beach Police reported that the school resource officer at the school was made aware of the incident by school officials on Jan. 31, and that officers have been working with the parents and school since that date to address the incident.

DBPD said the victim’s parents initially didn’t want to press charges, and asked the school to “ensure that the two perpetrators be held accountable.” Kelly Schulz, Volusia County Schools Director of Community Information Services, said an investigation was conducted, and discipline was given.

A petition was also started on Change.org asking that more disciplinary actions be taken against the two girls. As of 6:45 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 7, it had been signed almost 27,000 times.

The victim’s parents later changed their minds and asked SEE TIKTOK PAGE 8

Does Ormond Beach need more recreational vehicle and boat storage?

The Planning Board will face that question at its meeting on Thursday, Feb. 13, as it considers three rezonings and development orders for three All Aboard Storage locations seeking to add these uses to their existing business. The All Aboard Storage locations in question are the ones at 321 Hand Ave., 502 S. Nova Road and 509 S. Nova Road.

All Aboard Storage is not

seeking any new building construction. The RV and boat storage at the Hand Avenue location would utilize the existing parking spaces.

At the other two locations, the storage would take place interior to the property, according to the Planning Board agenda.

The Hand Avenue facility is currently zoned B-5 Service Commercial. The Nova Road facilities have a B-8 Service Commercial zoning residential, according to staff

The requests are being sought by Andy Clark, manager of Hand and Yonge LLC., after another property owner was cited by the Neighborhood Improvement Division in 2018 for having RV and boat storage outside of the city’s industrial zoning.

That property owner gave the city a list of similar properties that had RV and boat storage, and the All Aboard Storage facilities were cited in that list.

The way annual beach passes are sold has also changed, according to an email by Volusia County Beach Safety. Beach passes will now be valid for 365 days from the purchase date, rather than for the calendar year.

FAA agreement for tower updated A revised operating agreement between the city and the Federal Aviation Administration is in the works, which establishes the terms for air traffic control services at the Ormond Beach Municipal Airport.

Volusia’s

BRIGHT future

Volusia County Council Chair Ed Kelley delivers his last State of the County address at the Ocean Center.

Volusia County propelling into a ‘bright future’: Kelley delivers 2020 state of the county address JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

E

ach of the issues facing Volusia County today — from affordable housing and helping the homeless to protecting natural resources and creating jobs — represents opportunity, said Volusia County Council Chair Ed Kelley at the State of the County address on Tuesday, Feb. 11.

“The opportunity to exhibit bold leadership that helps propel our county into a successful and bright future,” Kelley said.

This will be his last time delivering the address, as he is not seeking re-election in 2020.

The presentation on Volusia County’s current state was mainly delivered via video; this year’s employed futuristic effects in line with the “2020 and beyond” theme of the event. The council members spoke about developments pertaining to six different categories: “A caring community,” “a safe community,” “protecting natural resources,” infrastructure development,” “community life” and “economic development.”

Each of these categories has a major impact on residents’ quality of life, Kelley said.

“We always concern ourselves with the details,” he said. “We never want to lose sight of the big picture.”

Kelley said 2019 was a year full of change and progress. George Recktenwald become the new county manager, the county hired an internal auditor, and a dozen new department directors were confirmed; some were hired within the county, while others were hired from outside.

The county also hopes to increase the number of aerospace jobs in the area. The State of the County address booklet stated Volusia County has “all the right stuff to capitalize on the explosive growth that’s enveloping the booming aerospace industry just

across our southern county border.” Last year, Volusia engaged in strategy sessions with Space Florida. Now, government, business and education leaders are trying to ensure the county has the regulatory climate and workforce to attract the industry.

“We’re not saying we’re going to go out there blasting rockets off from our beaches,” Kelley said. “That’s not the point. But we are so well positioned in the manufacturing triangle — from Melbourne to Orlando to Daytona Beach — and we are the eighth largest manufacturing county in the state of Florida.”

LOOKING BACK AT 2019

In the last year, the county has worked to improve its emergency medical services, including stationing an ambulance in Ormond-by-the-Sea and beginning a nurse triage program to manage nonemergency 911 calls.

Volusia County Councilwoman Heather Post spoke about the off-beach parking lots opened at Argosy Park in Ormond-by-theSea and the one in Ormond by the Cardinal Avenue beach approach.

She also touched on the major terminal renovation project currently in the works for the Daytona Beach International Airport, which hadn’t been renovated since 1992. Delta Air Lines and American Airlines are two major carriers that provide service from the airport.

“With so many projects in the pipeline for the new year, I look forward to Volusia County building on its successes of 2019,” Post said.

Councilman Ben Johnson highlighted the improvements to Volusia County Fire Service. In March 2019, the council approved nine new firefighter positions and approved the relocation of two fire stations over the next two to eight years.

Councilwoman Barbara Girt-

man spoke about the opening of the First Step Shelter last December. The county provided $2.5 million toward the shelter’s construction, and, for the next five years, it will contribute $400,000 annually for operations.

When it comes to protecting animals, Councilwoman Billie Wheeler brought up the new animal abuse registry on the county’s website.

In Ormond Beach, Security First opened its new headquarters in Ormond Crossing, and Brown and Brown began construction on its own new headquarters in Daytona.

“It was another impressive year of economic growth in Volusia County as evidenced by new and expanding businesses, record employment and continuing construction activity,” Councilman Fred Lowry said.

2020 AND BEYOND

Councilwoman Deb Denys said the issues plaguing Volusia aren’t unique — other communities are also dealing with challenges in protecting water resources, stimulating the economy and smart growth. Regional is the new local, she said.

“We always concern ourselves with the details. We never want to lose sight of the big picture.”

Volusia County Council Chair Ed Kelley

“These are universal issues that require collaborating and a regional approach across jurisdictional boundaries, and that’s exactly what we’ve done,” Denys said.

“The power of regionalism” is best seen by the hope to expand aerospace in Volusia, she added, “and the results from the recently concluded Bryce Supply Chain study confirm that this golden opportunity is in our horizon.”

Kelley said that in 2020, the county will be working on affordable housing; and continuing to work with local, state and federal governments, the business community and civic organizations to make sure growth is being managed “sensibly.”

“Managing it in a way that benefits and enhances our county, and is consistent with the community standards that you’d expect,” Kelley said.

Ormond Beach

Ormond Beach residents want new advisory board to protect trees The Ormond Beach Tree Committee came before the City Commission last week with its proposal.

BIRTHPLACE OF SPEED PARK

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

The Birthplace of Speed Park is a .7 acre oceanfront park located on the north side of the Granada Blvd. beach approach at A1A. The park provides a lovely pavilion, picnic tables, outdoor grill, shower, and drinking fountain. Paid parking is available nearby on the beach. The park is a wonderful setting for wedding ceremonies and gatherings.

A new grassroots group has risen in the city of Ormond Beach, and its members are advocating for the creation of a new advisory board — one that solely focuses on trees.

The Ormond Beach Tree Committee was formed over the last year to preserve and protect trees and plants in the community in

the wake of recent clear-cutting and a heightened focus on resiliency efforts.

As the group discussed how to preserve the character of Ormond Beach, they concluded that they would like to see more native plants, hardier landscaping and preservation of mature trees and wetlands on city property and new development, when possible, according to their presentation to

IS WHAT THE CITY HAS IN PLACE ENOUGH?

City Commissioner Dwight Selby was the only commissioner at the Feb. 4 commission meeting to say that he was intrigued by the concept of a tree board.

“I think there seems like there are some pretty knowledgeable people in that group, and they seem like their hearts are in the right place,” Selby said.

He added that the city currently has a comprehensive, 18-page tree ordinance in place, but that if the group believes there are things that should be changed, he’d be willing to heart hem out.

At least one commissioner thinks that what the city is doing is enough: Commissioner Troy Kent said adding a new advisory board would cost the city, as staff would need to be present and the city has to publicize the meetings. If people want to help, they can approach their commissioner and asked to be appointed to the Quality of Life Board, he said.

Moving forward, Kent said, the city will now have its arborist attend all Quality of Life meetings where trees will be discussed.

“The city is a great steward of trees, and quite frankly, I want less government in my life,” Kent said. “I don’t want more government, and I just think creating yet another board that we don’t need — because we already have a board that is doing the job — is not helping government run more efficiently.”

Ormond Beach residents John Burniston, Pam Novy and Georgann Meadows are three members of the Ormond Beach Tree Committee.

the City Commission.

Committee Member Pam Novy said the group wants to keep its mission positive.

“We didn’t want to just wholesale criticize anybody,” Novy said.

“We wanted to be part of a solution.”

As the group looked into Ormond’s Tree City USA designation by the Arbor Day Foundation, a title the city has held since 1991, they discovered that one of the standards requires the city to have a tree board or department.

The city’s Quality of Life Advisory Board, which comprises seven members, is currently considered to meet that requirement. Since 2014, trees and overall landscaping beautification have been discussed by the board about five times, and the latest was when Novy asked the board about its role in the Tree City USA designation.

City Public Information Officer Jenn Elston said the meetings have had limited mentions of trees because the board advises on diverse subjects and only looks at trees on city property.

“The city of Ormond Beach continues to exceed the requirements to qualify as a Tree City USA, and the implications that the group in question made were unfounded,” Elston said.

At the Feb. 4 commission meeting, Novy along with fellow committee members John Burniston and Georgann Meadows presented the commissioners with a draft resolution to create a “Landscaping and Tree Advisory Board.”

Aside from residents willing to serve, they proposed that the board include two experts (such as certified municipal or master arborists). The board could advise on historic tree removals and provide guidance on planting trees in the city’s public spaces, according to the resolution.

It’s meant to be a framework, Novy said. They’re not looking to be the “tree police.”

Meadows said there is a void in the city on environmental issues, and attributed it to the city’s elimination of its environmental

and demanded that Volusia County Sheriff Mike Chitwood be put on the phone. Calisi threatened to start shooting officers if the VSCO didn’t comply. He also threatened to kill himself.

SWAT deputies were able to remove Calisi from the car after using tear gas and a sting-ball grenade. The car was on fire as they pulled him out. He was turned over to the OBPD and then to Halifax Health for evaluation.

The VCSO charged Calisi with attempting to elude law enforcement, resisting arrest without violence and driving with a suspended license. The OBPD charged him with aggravated battery of a law enforcement officer, resisting an officer with violence and depriving an officer of means of protection/communication. In addition, Calisi was arrested for two warrants from a December incident where Calisi was found carrying ammunition and told a Daytona Beach Police officer he “could find his information on the dark web and kill him and his family,” the VCSO reported.

“We don’t expect our commissioners to be tree experts,” Meadows said.

The group also hopes that, if the city considers its proposal, the board could help bridge the city with residents on tree matters.

Burniston, who is also treasurer and vice-chair of the VolusiaFlagler group of the Sierra Club, emphasized that the Tree Committee doesn’t have anything to do with politics. He said they want to help preserve the environment, which happens to be one of the Sierra Club’s mantras.

Announcing the All New

Holly Hill man arrested in police standoff Volusia County Sheriff’s deputies arrested a 27-year-old convicted felon who kicked an Ormond Beach Police officer in the head and ended up in a two-anda-half-hour standoff with law enforcement as he threatened to shoot officers, shoot himself, set off explosives, and shoot an infant he claimed was in the car (there actually was no infant in the car), according to police.

Dillon Calisi, a Holly Hill resident and gang member, got into a fight with the police officer around 2 a.m. at the Marathon Gas Station at 530 S. Atlantic Ave. on Feb. 9 after the officer approached Calisi and a passenger in his car while responding to a call about people sleeping in a car on the property, according to the VCSO and OBPD. Calisi struck the officer in the head and tried to take his firearm and Taser before fleeing, according to police. The officer was treated at the hospital and released.

Officers chased Calisi’s car to Nova Road and Jersey Avenue, where he crashed shortly after 2:15 a.m., according to the VCSO. Law enforcement officers from other agencies converged to help the OBPD. Calisi was armed with a handgun and refused to get out of the car. 911 audio released by the VCSO reveals that Calisi called dispatch

‘Downtown Fit Loop’ in the works for Granada Bridge parks The Rotary Club of Downtown Ormond Beach is donating the fitness equipment and installation to the city, with the first phase to be completed by April 1.

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Walking and running across the Granada Bridge is a morning routine for many Ormond Beach residents, and soon, the four corner parks will offer an added fitness amenity: exercise equipment.

Thanks to a partnership between the city of Ormond Beach and AdventHealth, the Rotary Club of Downtown Ormond Beach is constructing a Downtown Fit Loop that incorporates all four parks at the base of the bridge. A groundbreaking ceremony was held on Wednesday, Feb. 5, to celebrate the beginning of the project’s first phase at Fortunato Park, made possible largely by a $45,000 donation by AdventHealth.

“We feel that this project is something everybody in the community can benefit from,” said Brandon Perry, president of the Rotary Club of Downtown Ormond Beach. “It doesn’t matter what age, what demographic.”

The $180,000 project is split into four phases. This first phase at Fortunato is the biggest, Perry said, costing about $90,000.

The Downtown Fit Loop is the brainchild of Hal Gerow, who brought the discussion to the Rotary Club about three years ago, Perry said. Gerow died two years ago.

Perry said he hopes the Downtown Fit Loop becomes an area

where families can exercise together.

“If the parents are using the equipment, the kids will have some play areas or even some little equipment of their own, and it will all be shaded and covered from the sun, which of course we need here,” Perry said.

Mayor Bill Partington said the activity around the four corner parks and the Granada Bridge are indicators of Ormond Beach being a “healthy vibrant community.” He thanked the Rotary Club and AdventHealth for their partnership. The Downtown Fit

Loop will be donated to the city.

“It takes dedicated, caring, concerned and committed residents to make this city work, and the reason Ormond Beach works so well — it’s because we have all those,” Partington said.

Fortunato Park is part of City Commissioner Dwight Selby’s zone, and he said this was an example of people working together to improve health in the community.

“That’s just such a fantastic idea and concept, and as society ages, and as Florida attracts more and more retirees, health is so

incredibly important,” he said.

AdventHealth is excited about the project, said AdventHealth Daytona Beach President and CEO Ed Noseworthy. He said the nonprofit hospital system is focusing on taking care of residents in and out of the hospital.

This is one way to do that.

“All of us here have things that make us feel whole,” Noseworthy said. “And we want to make sure that you think about those things in such a way that you’re always feeling good about who you are and what you bring to this place, to your work, to your community.”

Equipment should arrive by mid-March, and Perry said the Rotary Club aims to have it installed by April 1.

MYLES SAVAGE’S LAST ORGINAL STARS 60’s ROCK&ROLL HALL OF FAME CELEBRATION!

L

VALENTINE’S DAY MOTOWN, MOTOWN AND MORE MOTOWN!!!

ed by Myles Savage, Star Lead singer and Master of Ceremonies performing with the “Last Original Stars” at The Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center Auditorium. This is their sixth year performing at this venue and all of the previous shows have sold out. His repeat audiences love him and his audience participation shows. He’s known all over the world as the Ambassador of Romance.

Joining him will be Ramon Noble, Star lead singer from The Drifters, Early Clover, Star lead singer saluting The Coasters, Maurice “David Ruffin” Jones, Star lead singer from Richard Street’s Temptations.

This show gets four thumbs up and is a must see. Songs like “Under the Boardwalk”, “Up On the Roof”, “Charlie Brown”, “Poison Ivy”, “Yakety-Yak”, “My Girl”, “Get Ready”, “Stand By Me” and many many more hits will be performed. “The Last Original Stars” put on a real party

performance from the moment they enter the stage of the auditorium, the energy in the room is elevated to a fever pitch.

Legendary New York City host Joe Franklin of WOR Radio says “Myles Savage and his Last Original Stars are the real deal!”. Most people have never seen a show anything like this in concert. The performance will benefit Veterans of Foreign Wars.

Fans are dancing in the aisles, screaming and shouting, singing along with them.

Savage says that while the shows tend to draw primarily a “baby boomer” crowd, the younger people will also find “The Motown Party” exceptionally entertaining.

This fantastic show ran in Las Vegas at the Sahara Hotel and Casino’s Congo

room for 10 years. “Young people love the music too,” he said. “We have the old style Las Vegas flair. Younger people call it “old school,” but they can see that their parents and grandparents are hip and cool people.”

The husband told police that everything had been intact a couple of days before. The suspect is believed to have also gone upstairs and let a blind down, according to police. Nothing was taken.

When in the patrol car, the officer asked he had stolen the items. The man said his dog was hungry and “eating the door,” and that he thought “someone” was pregnant, according to the police report.

Because the man had failed to appear in court before, he was taken to jail.

Going for the KILL Bucs down Hawks behind stellar night from guard Jordan Sears

RAY BOONE SPORTS EDITOR

T

he Buccaneers’ face-off with rival Spruce Creek was a close contest for much of the game —until late in the third quarter.

With about 25 seconds left in the period, the Buccaneers’ Jordan Sears stole an errant Hawks pass near mid-court. There was no one between him and the hoop.

The decision on what to do next was an easy one.

“I knew I was going to dunk it the whole way,” Sears said. “That was my mindset the whole time.”

The 5-foot-11 senior guard rocketed off the floor and slammed the ball through the hoop. It was the second in-game dunk of his high school career and a play that gave the Buccaneers 64-53 lead.

The Buccaneers never took a step back in the fourth quarter.

Mainland defeated rival Spruce Creek 94-77 the night of Wednesday, Feb. 5, at Mainland High School. Sears scored a game-high 31 points, connecting on 12-of-17 from the field, including three 3-pointers.

“Before the game started, he told me ‘Coach, I feel like I can’t miss,’” Mainland head coach Joe Giddens said. “I let him play. I just let the guys play. If they feel it, I let them go.”

The game, much like the two teams’ meeting on Jan. 9, was chippy and passionate from the start. The Hawks’ coach, David Howard Sr., was Giddens’ former mentor. Wednesday night marked the seventh time in a row Mainland has defeated a team coached

by Howard, who was at Atlantic prior to Spruce Creek.

“Anytime you play a crosstown rival, it’s always going to be intense. You’re going to play hard,” Giddens said. “I think it’s getting us ready. We’re moving in the right direction.”

The postseason is almost here, and the Buccaneers have only one thing on their minds.

“We’re going to have the same mindset that we had going into this game,” said senior guard Taron Keith, who scored 14 points against the Hawks. “Kill.”

Mainland’s football team has a tradition of helping send its athletes to the next level. That tradition has been continued this year as several Buccaneers signed their national letters of intent at a signing ceremony for National Signing Day on Wednesday, Feb. 5, at Mainland High School.

Here are the prospects: n Ra’Mello Dotson (6-foot-1, 170 pounds) had a difficult decision to make for his signing day.

Dotson, the Buccaneers’ athletic cornerback and wide receiver, was deciding between several Division I schools in Florida Atlantic, Kansas, Central Michigan and Georgia State. Dotson, who had 50 tackles and 5 interceptions this past season, ultimately decided to stick with head coach Les Miles’ Jayhawks. n Ethan Gettman (6-foot-4, 185 pounds), the Buccaneers’ rock-solid place kicker and punter, signed with Bryant University. Located in Rhode Island, the Bulldogs compete in the NCAA’s Division I Northeast Conference. n Shayne Brennen (6-foot-9, 305 pounds), who started every game this season for the Buccaneers’ offensive line, signed with Independence Community College in Independence, Kansas. His former teammate, wide receiver Nathaniel Dell, played at Independence this past season before signing with the University of Houston. n Kaleb Costner (6-foot-3, 236 pounds) is staying close to home: Stetson, a Division I FCS program. n Chad Johnson (5-foot-11, 270 pounds), who stood out on Mainland’s defensive line this past season, signed with Alderson Broaddus, an NCAA Division II program located in Philippi, West Virginia. n Katavion Scott (6-foot-2, 290 pounds), a member of Mainland’s stout offensive line, signed with Florida Memorial, an NAIA school in Miami Gardens. n Lukas Walker (6-foot-3, 270), one of the toughest members of Mainland’s offensive line, signed with Bethune-Cookman.

In addition, Seabreeze’s football team also had one signee.

The Sandcrabs’ bruising running back Otis Walker (6-foot-1, 210 pounds), who hadn’t played a game prior to the 2019 season since junior varsity his freshman year, signed with junior college program ASA Miami. Walker had nearly 600 yards and 12 touchdowns for the Sandcrabs this season.

Ormond Beach resident’s quilt to tour the U.S. JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

O

rmond Beach Claire Sadowniczak is running out of walls to decorate in her Ormond Beach home.

Her paintings, crafts and framed pieces of Japanese embroidery are displayed throughout the house, watched over dutifully by her little rescue dog, Diamond, who Sadowniczak jokingly refers to as her “alarm without an off switch.”

The art on the walls are evidence of Sadowniczak’s interests.

Many of them proudly display her latest obsession: Quilting.

From quilts depicting a landscape to those fashioned after the 1920s “crazy quilt” style, Sadowniczak, a Pennsylvania native, has embraced her latest creative outlet with a passion. And the quilts don’t take her very long; her husband said she’s faster than your average quilter.

Her quilting journey started about three years ago when she joined the Racing Fingers Quilt Guild. In large part, that happened because of her best friend, Jo. They’ve been friends for 43 years, and Jo always introduces her to new hobbies. After decades of flying down from Pennsylvania to visit Sadowniczak, her best friend moved to Ormond Beach and told her they would be learning how to quilt.

“My husband calls us ‘bad dogs,’ because when you put two dogs together, they teach each other all their bad habits, but nothing good,” Sadowniczak said.

Now, one of Sadowniczak’s quilts will be touring the United States, starting with the Dakota County Historical Museum in St. Paul, Minnesota. Hers was one of 40 quilts selected by the Dakota County Star Quilters 2020 annual quilt show celebrating the 100th anniversary of the women’s suffrage movement.

A LIFETIME OF CRAFTING

Since she was 6 years old, Sadowniczak has been crocheting and embroidering — anything she could do while sitting, due to a rare blood disorder.

Her mother was the one to teach her. By the time Sadowniczak was 11, she was sewing all of her own clothes, as well as her mother’s. In high school, she made prom gowns for herself and her classmates.

Her “after-prom” dress was made with yellow crepe fabric, white lace, pearls and rhinestones.

Years later, after obtaining bachelor’s degrees in mathematics and computer science from Penn

State, Sadowniczak held jobs as a computer programmer and analyst at Ford Aerospace, and later worked on satellites with General Electric Aerospace. She graduated with a double master’s degree from Temple University in management and computer science.

On business trips, she would crochet. She used to make a lot of sweaters for her friends when TV soap operas “Falcon Crest” and “Dynasty” were airing.

Her favorite craft?

“Whatever I’m doing at the time,” Sadowniczak said. “I get bored.”

Enjoy family-friendly bird-themed games on the lawn, crafts in the classroom and tours inside the facility. Learn more about birds and win prizes. Call 615-7081.

THE CREATIVE PROCESS

Sadowniczak’s winning quilt is purple, yellow and white — the colors of the women’s suffrage movement. The phrase, “I am raising the ‘future.’ Allow me to vote for it!” adorn the top and bottom of the quilt. In the center, is a woman pushing a vintage baby carriage.

Usually, she designs quilts as she goes along, but this time, she had a vision in mind.

But the fun in quilting lies in the design. It’s why she doesn’t work with patterns. That’s like being back at work as an engineer, she said.

Her husband Bob Sadowniczak had a different take.

“She doesn’t like patterns,” he said. “It’s too easy.”

The couple has been married 40 years. They met while working on the same satellite in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.

“And I just thought he was the cutest thing,” said Claire Sadowniczak while laughing. “And he had a wonderful sense of humor. He kept me laughing the whole week and half we worked together.”

Afterward, he asked her on a date where they spent the entire

time trying to figure out ways they weren’t compatible. It became a running joke. Eight months later, they were engaged.

Bob Sadowniczak doesn’t watch her work on her quilts very often, but he is around when she needs him — namely, to help hang quilts for the annual Quilt Week show at the Ocean Center.

Quilting will likely not be the last type of craft Claire Sadowniczak explores, but for now, it’s the one that brings her joy.

“I want to create,” she said.

“Any quilt that I design myself is a fun quilt.”

Y

ou can think of it as an alternative to typical convenience stores.

Add Food, serving meals in bowls or pitas, opened a couple of months ago at 1628 W. Granada Blvd., just west of Interstate 95, next to Dunkin’ Donuts.

“It’s first and foremost a culinary adventure wrapped in a convenient package,” said Sara Afshari.

She calls it real food, made from scratch without preservatives, and happily explains the offerings to anyone who stops by. The menu is driven by two chefs who have worked around the world, she said, creating globally inspired dishes. Diners can choose a chef special or create their own bowl by choosing a base, such as rice or potatoes; a protein, such as beef or pork; and a finish, such as tomato or cucumber salad.

Local craft beers are among the

wide variety of drink offerings.

They also have a drink that was available at Lucky’s Market, now closing on East Granada Boulevard: Kombucha, a sweetened, effervescent tea, fermented but only with a trace of alcohol.

There’s also a snack section.

“Many snacks are organic or natural,” she said. “For example, we make ‘energy bites.’”

REPURPOSING AND RECYCLING

Located in a BP gas station, the location did not happen by accident. Afshari and co-owner Jordon Mecier were seeking a site during the controversy over the clearing of the Wawa site on West Granada Boulevard and decided to repurpose an existing building.

They noticed closed gas stations along the boulevard, such as the BP station. Now, they occupy the inside and gas can be purchased at the pumps.

Repurposing the buildings fits in with the owners’ attitude toward recycling. The bowls are served in compostable plates.

“Throw it in the trash and it’s gone in 30 days,” she said. “We want to promote this. There’s no reason a restaurant should still be using Styrofoam.”

In the cooler, the customer will find boxed water as well as water in plastic bottles.

“I drive across the bridge and I see people walking and running,” she said. “We want to give them the option of real food.”

The idea for the business came when Afshari stopped at a convenience store and bought celery sticks for her children. They noticed that there was a chemical smell because of the preservatives, so thought it would be a good idea to have other choices conveniently available.

much excitement for an opening, making it one of the reasons why 4 Rivers chose to open a restaurant in Daytona Beach.

“We’ve got no other location that has this much of a fanbase that truly asked for us to come, and we’re here to serve and to be able to do that here is amazing,” Rivers said.

President of One Daytona Roxanne Ribakoff said bringing “destination” tenants is a dream for the district.

“And 4Rivers is absolutely no exception,” Ribakoff said.

The restaurant will be open in time for the NASCAR Speedweeks.

Rivers started 4Rivers as a ministry in his garage 15 years ago to help a child with cancer. While her family wouldn’t accept money directly from Rivers, they did allow him to host a fundraiser at their church.

The restaurant group was officially established in Winter Park in 2009. It currently has 23 locations across the state.
