CITY WATCH

JARLEENE ALMENAS MANAGING EDITOR

Hotel project seeks to remove sidewalk plan

When City Commissioners gave their thumbs up for the construction of a 137-room hotel on the beachside in January 2023, a sidewalk on Seminole Avenue with ADA access to the beach was part of the proposal.

The developers now want to remove the access point from its plans.

A neighborhood meeting was held on Monday, Feb. 19, to discuss the issue. Mayor Bill Partington reported to the commission at its meeting the next day that the developers, Ormond Beach Holdings LLC, seek to remove the sidewalk because while the county agreed to accept ownership of the sidewalk, it refused to maintain it.

The developers’ solution to remove that component from the development didn’t sound good to him, Partington said.

“Losing any kind of beach access sounded like a nonstarter,” he said. “It also sounded like a bait-andswitch, if you will, because we approved that thinking that beach access was going to be there.”

He inquired about interest on the city maintaining it, or asking the county to pay to maintain it.

City interested in ‘compassionate’ homeless ordinances Last month, the DeLand City Commission approved three “compassionate” ordinances focused on helping homeless people off the streets and connecting them to services and programs. The Ormond Beach City Commission could soon follow in its footsteps.

On Tuesday, Feb. 20, Mayor Bill Partington asked city staff to schedule a workshop to explore ordinances similar to those passed in DeLand.

According to the West Volusia Beacon, DeLand’s three-pronged approach includes an “anti-camping” ordinance that seeks to relocate people asleep on public property in their downtown to a homeless shelter, an ordinance that makes it harder for people to leave their belongings in public spaces, and a ordinance targeting people lying on benches or streets.

The request for a workshop comes after the city has received various complaints about the rise of homelessness and panhandling in Ormond Beach.

“We’ve been a part of First Step (Shelter) for years, since the beginning, and I don’t feel like we’ve gotten the value out of it just because we haven’t utilized it as much as we could,” Partington said.

First Step Shelter opened in 2019 at 3889 W. International Speedway Blvd. The shelter, which partners with several municipalities — including Ormond Beach — aims to help unhoused men and women find jobs and permanent housing while connecting them to resources they need, such as mental health programs.

The homeless ordinances, Partington said, are meant to encourage compliance and encourage people to get connected with services.

“That seems like a smart way to do

City pursues study for pedestrian safety Is it time to improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety on the Granada Bridge?

On Tuesday, Feb. 20, the City Commission approved a request to submit a grant application to the River to Sea Transportation Planning Organization for help completing a $100,000 feasibility study on enhancing the safety of bicyclists and pedestrians crossing the bridge. The grant requires no local match, according to the consent agenda item.

it,” Partington said. “I talked to the DeLand mayor ... he said the shelters support it, they had no real pushback on it.”

There were concerns from the DeLand homeless community, but Partington said he’s hopeful that the ordinance will benefit them once it’s enforced.

Homelessness is an issue Partington said he’s been hearing about every week in Ormond Beach.

“There’s violence, there’s unsanitary conditions and other harsh conditions, health issues, experienced not only by the homeless people who live in these camps,” he said.

Prior to Partington speaking on the issue at the meeting, City Commissioner Harold Briley had expressed

interest in looking into similar ordinances to the ones DeLand passed.

City Manager Joyce Shanahan said that the city was discussing with its legal team what options were available, and that other cities had also passed similar ordinances.

City Commissioner Lori Tolland suggested the city reach out to FAITH, or Fighting Against Injustice Toward Harmony, an nonprofit coalition composed of almost 30 religious congregations in the county. The coalition has bee working to address homelessness and affordable housing for several years.

“I agree, it definitely needs to have a discussion, and I know we’re having a lot of workshops, but we have a lot of things going on,” Tolland said.

“This place has just been transformed into the grand space that a theater should be.”

With the Ormond Beach Municipal Airport operating with a negative budget of over a million dollars, City Commissioner Travis Sargent said at the Feb. 20 meeting that he wished the Aviation Advisory Board met more frequently to figure out a plan to address this.

“Year after year, it’s operated at a negative, which I know is what it’s always been,” Sargent said. “... We have an Aviation Advisory Board that its purpose is to advise the City Commission on aviation policies related to the development and operations of the municipal airport.”

The board met twice in 2022 and three times in 2021. According to the latest agenda on the city’s website, the board last met on Feb. 13, 2023.

City Commissioner Lori Tolland agreed that she would like to see all boards meet more regularly.

‘Volusia County deserves a united council’ Jeff Brower delivers 2024 State of the County address JARLEENE ALMENAS MANAGING EDITOR

I

n his fourth State of the County address, Volusia County Council Chair Jeff Brower called for countywide collaboration to improve quality of life.

“This is a time in our history in Volusia County where we all have to come together, to work together, with the common goal of improving our county,” Brower said. “We have to do it together. We can go forward.

We can build a flourishing, beautiful county where people love living, where we love playing, but we can’t do it one by one.”

The theme of the 2024 State of the County address, held for the first time in the west side of the county at The Center at Deltona on Wednesday, Feb. 14, was “Shaping Volusia’s Future Together.” Attended by over 450 people despite it being Valentine’s Day, the event highlighted five goals for 2024: Create a more efficient regulatory framework; increase the efficiency and effectiveness of government operations; develop and implement a plan for expanded recreation and sports tourism services; continue and enhance fiscal stewardship; and foster and support a solution-oriented culture.

Outside of the building, about 10 people held up signs protesting the proposed fuel farm near Ormond Beach by Belvedere Terminals and calling for County Manager George Recktenwald’s termination. The State of the County address was held a week after the County Council voted 5-2 against a moratorium on properties zoned I-2 “Heavy Industrial,” a move that clears the way for Belvedere Terminals to submit a site plan, as a fuel farm is an allowed use within the zoning district.

The conflict bled into Brower’s speech. He and Councilman Troy Kent were the only two to vote in favor of the moratorium.

Brower shared a request he received

“It’s no surprise to anyone that there are often disagreements among us on the council, among us in the community, as we debate important issues. That’s why we call them debates. Sometimes, it is personal, and as chair, I believe it’s my responsibility to keep our meetings moving forward in a positive direction.”

the day before from a resident of Bear Creek, one of the neighborhoods that has collectively voiced significant opposition to the proposed fuel farm at 874 Hull Road.

“Regardless of the disappointment that she felt, she demonstrated a maturity and made a necessary request that I agree with and I want to share with you now,” Brower said.

“Her words, and I quote, ‘I truly hope you all can work together going forward. Volusia County deserves a united council.’ I share that hope, and I share that sentiment.”

VOLUSIA COUNTY’S TOP ACHIEVEMENTS IN 2023

As in past years, the address featured a video highlighting the county’s achievements and milestones from the previous year.

Namely, the video emphasized the county’s recovery efforts from Hurricanes Ian and Nicole, the opening of new facilities like its $18.4 million medical examiner’s office and the reduction and elimination of certain fees and taxes in county government.

Last year, the County Council approved the elimination of the Communications Services Tax — which the county states is saving residents in unincorporated areas about $3 million a year — and doing away with county Business Tax Receipts, slated to save local businesses about $800,000 a year.

“Managing our community’s budget is a challenging task requiring careful balance and strategic planning,” Councilman Don Dempsey said in the video address. “Our goal was to diligently manage our resources to reduce unnecessary spending and hopefully lower taxes in the coming year.”

Regarding beach restoration from the hurricanes, Volusia County reports it expedited permit processes to help property owners rebuild in the aftermath of the storms as well as deployed over 13,000 linear feet of TrapBags to stabilize the coast.

The county is also working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Florida Inland Navigation District on beach nourishment projects to restore dunes with over 1 million cubic yards of sand.

“While there’s more work ahead, the speed and scale of repairs made over the past year have been extraordinary,” Councilman Matt Reinhart said in the video address.

Despite a harsh 2022 hurricane season, Volusia County saw a record number of sea turtle nests — more than 1,500 — while coastline reconstruction was ongoing.

Volusia also celebrated the opening of a dog beach in 2023, a milestone marked in the video address.

“This area is not just a place for relaxation,” County Councilman Troy Kent said. “It’s a symbol of our dedication to inclusive enjoyment, welcoming everyone and their beloved dogs.”

Kent also highlighted in the video address the ReGrow the Loop pilot initiative, which promotes native plants and wildlife to revitalize the Ormond Scenic Loop and Trail.

“It’s a step toward preserving and enhancing Volusia County’s natural beauty with plans to extend these sustainable efforts throughout the county,” he said.

This coming year, Brower said he wants to take on the challenge of reopening the stretch of beach from East International Speedway Boulevard to the boardwalk to beach driving. He also called for an end of draining, dredging and filling in wetlands for new development, which leads to flooding in existing neighborhoods.

“We must change our development patterns and we can do it — we can do better,” Brower said.

on various issues: beach tolls, water quality, short-term rentals, dogs on the beach, a proposed workshop on the Florida Wildlife Corridor, and most recently, the fuel farm.

During his speech, Brower quoted Thomas Jefferson: “I love to see honest men and honorable men at the helm. Men who will not bend their politics to their purses, nor pursue measures by which they may profit and then profit by their measures.”

“Jefferson’s wise counsel must always be before us,” Brower said.

“We will always be challenged by those who see ulterior motives in just about everything we do. It is our job as a council to never let that be the case, especially as we wrestle with the challenges before us.”

One of those challenges being private property rights. As the council deals with matters involving private property, members must keep in mind that each individual has the right to the security of property and public safety, Brower said, referencing both the Constitution and the county charter.

“Liberty is freedom wrapped in morals and respect for your fellow man,” Brower said. “Liberty asks this important question: Yeah, I can do a thing, but should I do that thing?”

We have no right, Brower said, to infringe on the security or safety of our neighbors.

“The road ahead is not easy, but the work is essential,” Brower said.

“I am asking this council and all of us to join hands in improving our quality of life and our economy. We can shape Volusia County’s future, but only if everybody in this room decides that we will do it together.”

‘THE ROAD AHEAD IS NOT EASY’

Some people, Brower said, are hoping this address is his last as County Council chair. (Brower is up for reelection in November, and currently has two opponents: Local businessman and former race car driver Randy Dye and Port Orange Mayor Don Burnette.)

“It’s no surprise to anyone that there are often disagreements among us on the council, among us in the community, as we debate important issues,” Brower said. “That’s why we call them debates.

Sometimes, it is personal, and as chair, I believe it’s my responsibility to keep our meetings moving forward in a positive direction.”

The public deserves that, he said. It doesn’t benefits from a “council divided on a personal level.”

It’s not the first year Brower has called for collaboration in his State of the County address. If reelected in November, it probably won’t be his last plea, as fellow council members have spent the last four years criticizing him for his stances

‘Modernized beacon of culture’ Ormond Beach celebrates the reopening of its Performing Arts Center.

JARLEENE ALMENAS MANAGING EDITOR

MICHELE MEYERS CONTRIBUTING WRITER

The Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center hasn’t just been renovated — it’s been transformed.

After 18 months of construction and $1.7 million, the PAC is welcoming performers once again.

On Thursday, Feb. 15, local elected officials, city staff, members of the Friends of the Ormond Beach PAC and other organizations attended a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the building’s reopening. Victor Wainwright and The Train inaugurated the venue with a performance on Saturday, Feb. 17, and on Sunday, Feb. 18, the public was invited to tour the PAC during an open house from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., featuring performances from Seabreeze High School and The Children’s Musical Theatre. The Florida Women’s Arts Association was also chosen to host the first art exhibition in the building, titled “Epic Expressions,” on display through April 27.

City Commissioner Harold Briley called the PAC a “modernized beacon of culture and arts.”

“The Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center as it stands today is a testament to what we can achieve when the community comes together,” Briley said.

The renovation project began in 2022 and the work was completed by Bomar Construction, Inc. of Ormond Beach. The project revamped the PAC’s lobby, added a donor wall and art gallery space, updated the seating in the auditorium thanks to a donation by local developer Paul Holub, and improved the exterior of the building, which was built in 1982 and used to operate as a church prior to the city’s purchase of the property in 1988. It began operating as a PAC in 1991, and the city had not completed major updates on the building since then.

The project received $600,000 of Volusia County ECHO dollars, with the city providing over $800,000 in match funds. Ormond was also able to receiving three grants from the Daytona Beach Racing and Recreational Facilities District, totaling over $400,000.

But without the Friends of the PAC, and its president Lucy Jackman, who pushed for the renovation for seven years, the project may have never come to fruition.

LUCY JACKMAN’S WORK ETHIC

City Commissioner Lori Tolland recalled being in a room with the Friends, talking about the future of the building.

“I was their newest member,” Tolland said. “I have to admit, I was not confident that the goals were achievable. Then, a few meetings later, I was introduced to this small fireball, and I heard her spunk and her enthusiasm, and knew without a doubt, that the PAC would be something great.”

That fireball was Jackman, whom Tolland said was persistent, had

great ideas coupled with “unbelievable work ethic” and knew how to get the job done. Jackman, Tolland said, is the ultimate volunteer.

“Her passion and desire to rebuild an arts center in Ormnd is undeniably amazing,” Tolland said.

Jackman said it was exciting for the project to be completed — and almost unbelievable after seven years of work.

“This is the epitome of it takes a village,” Jackman said. “Because this took a village, it really did.”

Now that the theater, what Jackman calls the “center of cultural arts” in Ormond Beach, is open, she’s looking forward to seeing acts of all genres grace the stage.

“It’s got to be open more, and used more,” she said.

The PAC is currently selling tickets for 13 different shows through the beginning of May. PAC Supervisor Marc Schwartz said he’s excited to get back to doing what he loves to do: present shows and events for the community.

“Now is the time to elevate our game and provide all the best for our

community,” Schwartz said. “Now that we have a facility as beautiful as this, it has put us on the map in a way that we were not before.”

His favorite word is starting to become “Wow.” “Simply because the impression that people get now when they walk into the building — especially for guests who have been here in the past — is ‘Wow, what a difference,’” Schwartz said. “Because, this place has just been transformed into the grand space that a theater should be.”

Civilization are often remembered for their contributions to arts and culture, said Jeffrey Ault, committee member of the Volusia ECHO Board.

“In the year 2000, citizens of Volusia County took it upon themselves to create a quality of life program, not only to enhance the current cultural opportunities, but they also had the vision to look into the future and say, ‘We want our children and future generations to benefit from these efforts,’” Ault said. “The Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center fits perfectly for that vision.”

Stephanie Mason-Teague, executive director of the Ormond Memorial Art Museum and committee member of the Volusia ECHO board, said the fun part of projects is seeing everything come together.

“A community center such as this, whether you’re acting on stage, behind the scenes, brings our community together in a way that other amenities cannot,” she said.

PAC HOSTS OPEN HOUSE

It was open house at the newly revitalized Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center following a myriad of reopening activities, including a donors’ champagne extravaganza, culminating in a day of activities on Sunday, Feb. 18.

Schwartz was on hand to greet people and give tours of the renovated venue. In 2010, he began to manage the facility.

“I realized, at that time, that I was going to have to reimagine what this facility could be so that it draws the attention of the people who have an interest in the arts,” he said. “I wanted them to understand that we have this facility here — it’s not just a nondescript office building on U.S.1.”

Volunteers gave tours of the ticketing office, brightly lit lobby and newly installed theater seating. Art enthusiasts also got a chance to roam the fine art gallery where the Florida Women’s Arts Association exhibition is installed.

Alyssa Smullin was the interior designer for the Performing Arts Center. She stopped by the open house with her son Miles.

“I worked with the architect for this renovation,” she said. “It’s like my baby.”

“Instead of them going to Dr. Phillips (Center for the Performing Arts) or the King Center or Jacksonville, they’re coming here,” he said. “What attracted their agent was he had read about the renovation and said they would love to play in a beautifully renovated theater, especially in a place where they played once before.”

The band had played at the Ormond Beach Independence Day celebration Jazz Matazz in the 1990s.

The City of Palm Coast brings the fun!

Holly Hill middle school students rezoned to OBMS Come next school year, Holly Hill School will not be a K-8.

JARLEENE ALMENAS MANAGING EDITOR

Volusia County Schools is returning Holly Hill School to an elementary school in the 2024-2025 academic year, and over 200 middle school students will be rezoned to Ormond Beach Middle School.

The Volusia County School Board unanimously approved the school conversion from a K-8 to a K-5 and the rezoning of attendance zones at its Feb. 13 meeting. The board action was one of five rezoning amendments on the agenda, aimed at addressing the overcrowding of schools identified by the district in 2022. Community meetings discussing the proposed changes were held countywide beginning last November through January of this year.

According to the district, 223 students currently attending Holly Hill School will be rezoned to OBMS and 171 will attend Campbell Middle School in Daytona Beach.

Holly Hill School was turned into a K-8 in 2011 when Holly Hill Middle School closed.

The middle school was later demolished.

In addition to addressing overcrowding, the board spoke about giving Holly Hill School students access to

middle school programs they haven’t had before.

Board Chair Jamie Haynes said she was working as a teacher when Holly Hill Middle School was closed and the kids were transferred to Holly Hill Elementary School. It was a small number of students, and they were missing out on programs.

“If you’re going to do a K-8, you have to have a balance of the number of students in both to be able to offer all of the programs,” Haynes said.

VCS Chief Operating Officer Patty Corr said one program that has been lacking at Holly Hill School is art. The campus didn’t have space for it.

“Having spent 14 years in the middle school division, that’s one of the highest requested electives by our middle school students, especially now,” Corr said.

School Board member Ruben Colon said he hasn’t personally visited Holly Hill School, but that he relied on his fellow board members’ knowledge of the school and community as the basis of his support for the conversion and rezoning.

“At the time, they explained what the limitations were at Holly Hill and how those students were being underserved just because of environment,” Colon said.

School Board member Carl Persis suggested that the transition of students could be eased using existing student leaders, such as the ones at Campbell Middle School, to meet with the incoming Holly Hill students over the summer to welcome them.

“That would serve as such a great bridge and comforting for those students, because we all know middle school age is tough ... and so friendships matter,” Persis said.

The Volusia County Council gave seven thumbs up to Lou Paris during its Feb. 20 meeting, approving him as the county’s new director of economic development.

“I’m deeply impressed with Lou’s professional experience and accomplishments leading business and economic development activities in Florida,” County Manager George Recktenwald said. “He brings strong talent and determination to our many economic development endeavors, which are some of the most robust in the state.”

Paris will be responsible for the daily operation of the county’s Economic Development Division, which attracts new businesses, expands existing businesses, and helps them get to market as quickly as possible.

He brings more than 15 years of experience in the business and economic development fields. He began his career as sales and marketing director for a multinational softwood sawmill in Germany, then returned to the United States to serve as business development and marketing manager for CareerSource Flagler Volusia. He then worked for Stetson University’s Prince Entrepreneurship Program from 2009 to 2023, serving as assistant director, adjunct professor, and director. Most recently, he was operations director for GloboFran, an investment consultancy firm in Miami.

In 2021, Paris received the Volusia County Business Incubator’s Ambassador of the Year Award for his commitment to the creation and growth of new business ventures. He holds a master’s degree in business administration from Stetson University.

LETTERS 2024 State of the County Dear Editor: Congratulations to Volusia County Chair Jeff Brower who continues to demonstrate his leadership!

“Liberty is freedom

wrapped in morals and respect for your fellow man.

We have no right to infringe on the security or safety of our neighbors,” as quoted

by Chairman Brower. It is refreshing to see leadership is still alive amongst all the muck dealt out everyday! His

actions have always demonstrated character over ego.

Bravo!

“Leadership is about submission to duty, not elevation to power.” This was once said

by First Nations actor of Cree and Stoney descent, Gordon Tootoosis. This quote about leadership rings true today and will always stand the test of time.

Tootoosis was a descendant of Yellow Mud Blanket, brother of the famous Cree leader Pîhtokahanapiwiyin.

He was acclaimed for his commitment to preserving his culture against resistance as well as so called progress and to telling his people’s stories for preservation through the generations.How about preserving our culture,

ecosystem, precious lands, way of life and peaceful existence here in Volusia County, Ormond Beach, Fort Pierce, Jacksonville and all throughout Florida?

One day, Jackson sent me a text with a link to the newest song by our favorite band.

Another day, my youngest son, Luke, 5, did his best to catch me up to speed on American Sign Language.

With a frown of intense concentration, and a furrowed brow, Luke moved his hands in convincing ways, fingers outstretched at his chin, then pulling his fists to his chest, making circles with his pinkies, tapping his forehead.

“Not sure,” I said. “What

does it mean?”

He tried again, with variations, until I finally asked, “Are you making those up?”

He nodded, perfectly innocent, perfectly sincere, perfectly inclusive.

“I was wondering if you could walk me to the bus stop?” he asked, mercifully translating into English for me.

“I would be happy to,” I said, feeling suddenly wanted, suddenly like a notso-bad dad after all.

YOUR TOWN MEGA COLON TO ARRIVE AT HALIFAX HEALTH IN MARCH Halifax Health will host the Mega Colon at its Daytona Beach hospital campus on Tuesday, March 5, from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. for members of the public to tour.

This free event will be held at 303 N. Clyde Morris Blvd. in the France Tower parking lot. The Mega Colon exhibit provides visitors with the interactive, educational experience of stepping through a large-scale model of the human colon. Through examples of various colon issues, attendees will see first-hand the problems that can develop within the human colon. From hemorrhoids to colon cancer, this exhibit shows it all.

“We are proud to provide this free educational op-

Despite living in a full house, I have felt rather lonely of late. It’s hard to explain the human heart, but maybe it’s because I’m working a lot and often walking into the middle of something. One day, it was an arm-wrestling competition. Another day, it was dinner. Then, a living room soccer game.

I was late to the sign language lessons, too. My wife, Hailey, took classes in college and still has her dictionary of signs, so she and our five children have had fun

flipping through the pages, learning simple sentences — and a few insults. Although everyone else was laughing and trying new signs, I felt like something of an outsider, even an intruder on their joy.

I reminded myself that everyone feels left out at times, and I can’t expect to be immune from the loneliness of life. “Dads have feelings, too!” I want to say, but I don’t. That’s not manly. Not fatherly. Right?

And then my children came to the rescue.

portunity for our community during Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month,” said Gina Lawrence, gastrointestinal cancer patient navigator at Halifax Health. “With cases of colorectal cancer in people under 55 increasing, it’s important that we continue to bring awareness to our community about colorectal cancer screenings. When screening finds colorectal cancer early, survival rates can be as high as 90 percent,” said Lawrence.

The tours are free and lead

by Halifax Health team members. The event will include a free physician lecture, titled “How to Keep Your Colon Healthy,” by gastroenterologist Ammar Hemaidan, M.D., from 5-6:30 p.m. on March 5 at Halifax Health, 303 N. Clyde Morris Blvd., France Tower meeting room E. There is no cost to attend but reservations are required by calling 386-425-6VIP or RSVP online at halifaxhealth.org/ towertalks.

POLICE FOUNDATION DONATES OVER $6K The Ormond Beach Police Department Foundation donated a total of $6,000 to the department’s Officer of the Year, Civilian of the Year and the family of a late officer on Monday, Feb. 19.

According to a Facebook post by OBPD, the Foundation has donated over $100,000 to the department to support training, technology, equipment and educational opportunities since 2020.

The Foundation donated $500 to Officer of the Year Jeremy Cline; $500 to Civilian of the Year Avery Randolph, who is the athletic activities specialist for the Ormond Beach Police Athletic League; and $5,000 to the family of the late Cpl. Michael Bakaysa, who died last December after suffering a medical incident during training.

Jelani Favors delivered the keynote address speaking

“We are thrilled to host Dr. Favors on campus as the keynote speaker for our Black History Month assembly,” said Crystal A. deGregory, director of the Center for the Study of Women and Girls at B-CU and lead organizer of the Black History Month Assembly. “As we commemorate the 120th anniversary of our beloved HBCU, Dr. Favors’ timely commentary on the value and legacy of these historic institutions is sure to leave a mark on B-CU students, faculty and staff, and the broader community.”

ORMOND BEACH FIRE DEPARTMENT WINS PUMPER PULL EVENT

Madison Marsh, Miss America 2024, visits AdventHealth Daytona Beach’s pediatric patients on Friday, Feb. 16. Courtesy photos

MISS AMERICA GREETS ADVENTHEALTH PEDIATRIC PATIENTS On her path to act as the honorary pace car driver ahead of the DAYTONA 500, Madison Marsh, Miss America 2024, visited pediatric patients at AdventHealth Daytona Beach on Friday, Feb. 16.

“Her visit brough immense

joy and excitement to our pediatric patients and their families, as well as mothers, their precious newborns, and our team members,” AdventHealth spokesperson Lindsay Cashio said in a statement to the Observer.

The Ormond Beach Fire Department won first place in the first Craig Morrisey Pumper Pull hosted by Port Orange Professional Firefighters Association on Saturday, Feb. 17, an event benefitting local nonprofit, YES. The Ormond Beach Fire-

fighters Charity presented YES — which stands for Youth Emotional Support — with a $200 donation. The nonprofit proves support and resources to youth and families facing challenges due to mental health illness, and provides specialized training to mental

health professionals.

The pumper pull consisted of teams of 10 pulling a fire truck. The event was named in honor of Port Orange Fire Rescue Driver Engineer Craig Morrisey, who died in 2013 due to cancer.

“Her warmth and compassion uplifted spirits and brought smiles to all.”

Marsh, who was Miss Colorado 2023 and is a second lieutenant in the U.S. Air Force, was crowned Miss America in January.

Madison Marsh, Miss America 2024, smiles with students at Hinson Middle School on Friday, Feb. 16. Photos by Jarleene Almenas

There she is, Miss America

Elizabeth Bing, Hinson Middle School’s Teacher of the Year, helped to bring Madison Marsh, Miss America 2024, for a visit on Friday, Feb. 16.

Marsh, a second lieutenant in the Air Force, visited Hinson to talk to and inspire students in the school’s Advancement Via Individual Determination program about their futures.

JARLEENE ALMENAS MANAGING EDITOR

Miss America 2024 Madison Marsh, clad in her U.S. Air Force uniform, spoke to students at Hinson Midde School about dreams.

About how it’s OK if dreams and career paths change. They did for her.

“For a long time, I’d wanted to be an astronaut, and now I’m changing paths because my passions have changed,” Marsh said. “And it was really difficult being a college student, letting go of dreams I’d had for nine years, and it took a while and a little bit of soul searching to realize it’s OK for things to change, for your plans to change, for your life to change, because you should never be wasting ay of the precious moments that you have on things that you don’t love.”

Marsh, a second lieutenant in the Air Force, visited Hinson on Friday, Feb. 16, to talk and inspire students in the school’s Advancement Via Individual Determination program about their futures.

The AVID program aims to support students in advanced academics and college readiness, according to Volusia County Schools.

Marsh was in town as she was invited to act as the honorary pace car driver ahead of the DAYTONA 500, rescheduled to Monday, Feb. 19, due to

weather. Marsh, who was Miss Colorado 2023, was crowned Miss America in January.

VCS Deputy Superintendent Rachel Hazel said to the students that Marsh represents “everything that we as educators want to give to our children.”

“We in education want nothing more than for them to be the best that they can be, and thank you for paving that way and showing them everything that you are,” Hazel said.

For 22-year-old Marsh, her mother is a big part of her journey.

When she was 17, her mother died from pancreatic cancer, leading Marsh to create the Whitney Marsh Foundation in her memory. As her desire to learn more about pancreatic cancer research grew, she decided to pursue a public policy degree instead of her initial path of physics.

Marsh is currently a student at Harvard.

“That’s something that the

loss of my mom taught me,” she said. “That every moment that you get needs to be cherished and put towards things that you love, and with that you can never fail.”

There’s a lot of stereotypes about women in pageants, Marsh said. There are also a lot of stereotypes about women in the military.

They never mattered to her.

“Being able to break down these conflicting stereotypes is an important representation, whether or not you want the same career that I have — that doesn’t matter,” Marsh said. “But the fact that I hope everyone can feel comfortable stepping into their role, whatever they’re passionate about, and being able to break whatever conflicting stereotypes might exist in your career.”

Marsh said she’s excited to talk to students as Miss America 2024 as students are “the future of America.”

“If I can speak to them a little bit about success in their life and being able to impart that on them, then it just makes me so happy because they’re all destined to do great things, and I truly believe that with every student I’ve got to meet this year,” Marsh said.

“That’s something that the loss of my mom taught me. That every moment that you get needs to be cherished and put towards things that you love, and with that you can never fail.”

Embry-Riddle president takes flight with U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds The Thunderbirds — who were in town for the Daytona 500 — extended an opportunity for President Barry Butler, of Ormond Beach, to ride along aboard an F-16 Fighting Falcon.

JARLEENE ALMENAS MANAGING EDITOR

Flying with the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds was a dream for Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University President P. Barry Butler. On Thursday, Feb. 15, that dream came true.

The Thunderbirds — in town for the Daytona 500 — extended an opportunity for Butler to ride along with one of their pilots aboard an F-16 Fighting Falcon. Butler, an Ormond Beach resident, soared to the skies with Maj. Bryce “Triple” Turner, a

flight experience he said in a statement was “a remarkable demonstration of the pride, precision, and professionalism of the U.S. Air Force.”

“The Thunderbirds’ mission is well aligned with Embry-Riddle’s long history of serving those who serve, and our goal to inspire young people to pursue aviation careers,” Butler said in a press release.

The goal of the flight was to inspire young people to pursue careers in aviation, and the Thunderbirds share a connection to ERAU as well — Their leader and

commander, Lt. Col. Nathan “Sheik” Malafa graduated from ERAU with his master’s degree.

Audrey Butler, who is the ambassador for ERAU and the president’s wife, said she was very happy for her husband. A few years ago, he planned to fly with the U.S. Navy Blue Angels, but that fell through. The Butlers were crossing their fingers the flight with the Thunderbirds would come to fruition, particularly because his father served as a pilot in the Air Force.

“As an Air Force family, aviation is his whole life,” she said. “His passion and his career, so this is especially nice for him.”

RAGE BREWED 7:42 a.m. — 300 block of South Nova Road, Ormond Beach Vandalism. A 62-year-old Ormond Beach woman called police after a woman in a drive-thru line of a coffee shop chain broke the middle pane of her back window by throwing a water bottle.

The victim was in the drivethru line when the woman, who appeared to be in her 20s and was wearing scrubs, claimed the victim cut her off in line, according to a police report. The woman continued yelling at the victim and then exited her car to bang on the victim’s driver side window.

The woman then opened the victim’s car door and told her to move her car from the line.

After, the report states, the woman returns to her car and grabs a mostly-full plastic water bottle and throws it at the victim’s car. Police spoke with a witness over the phone who confirmed the victim’s story.

The victim estimated the damage to her vehicle was between $500 and $800. She wished to press charges.

AIRING DIRTY LAUNDRY 3:28 p.m. — first block of Becker Lane, Palm Coast Resisting arrest. Sheriff’s Office deputies found a fugitive hiding from arrest in a pile of his friend’s dirty laundry.

The fugitive was wanted for multiple felony warrants. Deputies received a tip that the suspect was hiding out in a friend’s home, with the homeowner’s knowledge, according to an arrest report. When

deputies arrived at the home, the homeowner had just left to go to the store.

When the homeowner returned, he told deputies that the suspect was not inside his home, but that he would check anyway, the report said.

The man spent over five minutes checking the home with the deputies waiting outside.

The homeowner returned, insisting his friend wasn’t inside. When deputies searched the home, they found the suspect hiding under a pile of clothing with a laundry basket placed on top of him, the report said.

The suspect was arrested, as well as the homeowner.

FEB. 17

DODGE AND WEAVE 12:29 p.m. — 300 block of Palm Coast Parkway Reckless driving. An Orlando man on his way to a car show in Jacksonville was arrested for reckless driving.

A Sheriff’s Office deputy saw the man weaving his Honda through cars on the the interstate, according to the man’s arrest report. The Honda cut off multiple other cars and was speeding in the northbound lanes on Interstate 95.

The deputy began pursuing the Honda, which sped up and then exited the highway at the Palm Coast Parkway off-ramp, going into the grass to bypass the line of stopped cars. When the deputy attempted to follow the Honda, he hit a posted sign, disabling his patrol car, the report said.

The Honda was soon caught by other deputies at the east end of Palm Coast Parkway. The man attempted to switch seats with his girlfriend, only for a nearby witness to tell police he was the one driving the car.

The man admitted to speeding away from the first deputy, saying he was scared to be pulled over because he was driving without a license, the report said.

PARKING PROBLEM 12:18 p.m. — 200 block of North Nova Road, Ormond Beach Weapons complaint. Police responded to a local shopping plaza after receiving a call about a person armed with a gun, an altercation that began over a parking spot.

According to the police incident report, a 46-year-old man told police that he was parking in one of two available spots on the westside of the lot near the grocery store when a driver pulled up and parked his vehicle, blocking both spaces. The man initially told police the driver, a 74-year-old Bunnell man, pointed a gun out the window into the parking lot, but later said he saw it up by the driver’s mirror. The cars parked next to each other.

The driver told police that he believed the man became upset with him as they were both parking at the same time, according to the report.

The driver said the man “appeared to have an attitude with him” but that he couldn’t understand what he was saying. He told police he removed his gun from the center console of his vehicle and placed it in his front jacket pocket, and when he got out and noticed the butt of the gun was hanging out, moved it to his right front pocket.

Both the driver and the man (and their passengers) entered the same restaurant. After obtaining surveillance footage, and because the man incorrectly reported the color of the driver’s gun and then 396623-1

Catholic church in Bunnell now on the National Register of Historic Places The addition of the St. Mary Catholic Church marks the 13th Flagler County property on the National Register of Historic Places.

RANDY JAYE CONTRIBUTING WRITER

On Jan. 25, the St. Mary Catholic Church (also known as the St. Mary Mother Church) located at 89 St. Mary’s Place in Bunnell was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

The areas of its historic significance are architecture, ethnic heritage: European (Polish), and exploration/settlement. The adjacent Shrine of Saint Christopher structure was also included as a contributing resource.

The National Park Service defines the NRHP as, “the official list of the nation’s historic places worthy of preservation. Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the NRHP is part of a national program to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect America’s historic and archeological resources.”

The author started the NRHP

research and nomination activities almost seven years ago. Delays in the process included red tape at the Catholic Diocese of St. Augustine, and the COVID-19 pandemic. The old and popular saying “Good things come to those who wait” is surely applicable to this story.

The addition of the St. Mary Catholic Church increases the number of Flagler County properties on the NRHP to 13. The author also researched and successfully nominated the previous four: Espanola School House (2020), Bunnell Coquina City Hall (2019), Bunnell Water Tower (2019), and the Holden House (2018).

Flagler County was founded in 1917 from parts of Volusia and St. Johns counties. The community of Korona (which means “crown” in Polish) became part of Flagler County when it was founded, and is now an unincorporated community which uses Bunnell mailing addresses. At one time, the community of Korona had its own post office, but it was closed by the U.S. Postal Service in 1950.

Today, the St. Mary Catholic Church is presumably the oldest standing church building in Flagler County, and it has the distinction of actually predating the county’s founding.

The history of the St. Mary Cath-

The St. Mary Catholic Church was built in 1914. Photos by Randy Jaye

olic Church, originally named St. Mary, Queen of Poland, Catholic Church, begins with a group of families of Polish descent who relocated to Korona from several northern urban centers, including Chicago and Detroit. These people were predominantly farmers who were attracted to the area by advertisements in The Bunnell Home Builder (a newsletter published by the Bunnell Development Company, chartered in 1909, which operated offices in Bunnell and Chicago). These advertisements promised such things as fertile land costing only $35 per acre.

In 1914, shortly after they arrived in the area, these people built the church with the assistance of $1,000 that they previously raised. The church building was constructed in the Carpenter Gothic architectural style, which was popular in North America from the late 1800s into the early 1900s. The St. Mary Catholic Church is one of the only Catholic church buildings designed in the Carpenter Gothic architectural style in Florida, most others are Episcopalian.

The St. Mary Catholic Church building has 1,955 square feet. It measures 31 feet wide by 62 feet long, and includes a 3-foot wide by 11-foot long section of the garage that projects from the northeast corner of the building. The church has a steeply pitched gable roof with a prominent steeple located at its front section.

The steeple houses a bell that can be manually rung using a rope located in the choir chamber. Original solid wood board and batten siding is affixed horizontally on the building’s white painted exterior. Abundant local pine and cypress wood was used for the framework and trim.

Carpenter Gothic architecture uses wood to fabricate stone features that were prevalent in authentic 12th to 16th century Gothic architecture. Local designers and housecarpenters applied the Carpenter Gothic architecture style in lightframe construction for mainly small domestic buildings, outbuildings and small churches.

In most churches that were constructed in the Carpenter Gothic architectural style, including the

St. Mary Catholic Church, features include pointed-arch windows, jigsawn wood trim, steep gables, board and batten siding, and a steeple.

Perhaps the most prominent feature of the St. Mary Catholic Church is its eight lancet windows, which are tall and narrow with a pointed top arch. The glass panes are clear and wavy. Interestingly, no colorful stained glass has ever been used in the windows of this church.

In the 1930s, two additions were added onto the back of the church building. One was an automobile garage, and the other provided living quarters (bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, living room, and a safe and storage room) for the resident priest.

The additions were constructed with materials that matched the original church building.

The interior of the church features 14 solid wood pews (long benches with backs). The sanctuary rests on a slightly raised stage running the length of the east wall and includes simple wood rails on each of its sides.

On the center of the east wall, there is a large ornate statue of Jesus on the Crucifix. On the right side of the sanctuary, there is a small altar, and in front of it is a Statue of the Redeemer in Death. The sanctuary also includes church service-related artifacts and various paintings of biblical figures and saints.

The white painted interior walls of the church and sacristy room are finished with original solid hardwood bead board wainscoting, which runs vertically from the floor to the chair molding and horizontally above the chair molding to the ceiling. The white painted ceiling is finished with matching solid hardwood bead board.

The Shrine of Saint Christopher is a very unique structure that was built in 1935 for the purpose of providing a rest stop and haven for motorists to relax and pray to the Patron Saint of Travelers, protector against toothaches, hailstorms and sudden death. The structure is formed from concrete and covered with a veneer of locally quarried coquina rock and measures 28 feet by 40 feet and is 24 feet high. Highlights of the structure include short wall crenellations (also

called battlements), which are stylistic features found on many Gothic Revival style churches.

The top section of the shrine has four square pillars connected by arches. One of the more interesting and stylish features is the four coquina rock fish carvings, which display their heads, dorsal fins, and a portion of their bodies protruding out from the corners of the arches.

Centrally located within the top arched section is a white marble statue of Saint Christopher holding a staff in his hands and looking up towards Christ, depicted as a child, who is sitting on his shoulder.

From the humble beginning of the St. Mary Catholic Church in 1914, it has played a significant role in the Korona community. To this day, the church is interconnected to the spiritual and cultural lives of many of the area’s people. The St. Mary Catholic Church building and the Shrine of Saint Christopher structure are certainly among Flagler County’s most impressive, important, and alluring historic sites.

The author sincerely acknowledges the efforts of Samantha Schmidt (Historic Preservationist), and Kyra Lucas (Supervisor – Survey, Registration, and Technical Services) of Florida’s Bureau of Historic Preservation for their assistance in preparing the nomination documentation for submission to the National Park Service.

What’s an earmold and why do I need one???

Dr. Indira Álvarez, Clinical Director & Owner Palm Coast Hearing Center

As a Doctor of Audiology for over 15 years, I get to help people live happier, healthier lives everyday by helping them hear better. Unfortunately, a part of my job that is not as fun is seeing a patient come in that has been wearing hearing aids (that they got somewhere else) for a long time, and still struggling to hear and understand speech, or hear the tv. When I complete their exam and assess the prescription in their hearing aids, I often find that the patient is wearing a “stock” or off-the-shelf device with a disposable ear tip (the little soft piece at the end of the wire or tubing that goes in the ear canal). That tip is ok for some people, but actually not the best choice for most patients.

If you have more than a mild hearing loss, any type of curvature or unique anatomy to the ear canal, or dexterity issues with your hands, those tips are often not placed in the ear correctly. This results in the sound directed to the ear canal wall instead of the ear drum, where it is supposed to go. In addition, because the fit of the tip in the ear is not custom, there can be gaps or leakage of sound around the edges, which is the sound that the hearing aid is processing escaping from the ear. This can sometimes present as a lack of crispness or clarity, or a whistling sound coming from your ear when you move

your head. It is disappointing to see that a patient may have potentially spent thousands of dollars on the best technology, and all that high quality sound is escaping out of the ear before it gets to the ear drum, where it is needed most. For most patients in our practice, hearing aids with custom earmolds are part of their hearing care plan, so they can maximize the technology they have in their hearing aids. Today’s hearing aids are more technologically advanced than ever, enhancing speech recognition in a variety of settings, decreasing background noise to lessen listening fatigue and adjusting different speakers in different environments. All this wonderful technology is happening automatically and delivering sound to your ear seamlessly, but if that sound is escaping out of a poorly fit ear tip, you will not hear very well at all! Earmolds are relatively inexpensive and one of the best ways to improve speech recognition, without getting new hearing aids.

We make an earmold impression of your ear and order them from a laboratory; within a couple of weeks,

we have custom earmolds that we can adhere to your hearing aids and then reprogram them to make sure you are hearing as well as you can.

If you already have hearing aids and are not satisfied with their performance, call our office and schedule an appointment to determine if earmolds would be helpful for you… and if you are thinking about getting hearing aids, make sure you ask if earmolds are a part of your fitting; even though there is a little more of a wait, it will be worth it when you

are able to experience the great sound from your new hearing aids!

At Palm Coast Hearing Center, our mission is to provide the best quality hearing care possible, educate the community and help all patients make informed decisions so they can get the care they need and deserve.

Kirk, Thomas, Newland score 15 apiece to lead Mainland to firstround win

DeAndre Newland (21) goes up for a shot against Pine Forest’s Jackson Parker and Maurice Smith.

Mainland had a comfortable lead against Pensacola Pine Forest in the second half of its Region 1-5A quarterfinal game. Then Bucs point guard Nate Kirk landed on the floor, clutching his knee.

Was coach Joe Giddens worried?

“Oh yeah, of course,” Giddens said.

A few minutes later, the sophomore returned to the game and Giddens breathed a sigh of relief.

“When he came and said he was ready to go, I said, ‘OK, sub in.’ I was a little worried, but I know he’s a tough kid,” he said.

Kirk and Mainland’s two big men, 7-foot DeAndre Newland and 6-foot-6 Narayan Thomas, each scored 15 points to lead Mainland to a 58-41 victory on Thursday, Feb. 15 at the Vince Carter Athletic Center.

Kirk, who scored 10 of his points in the first quarter, added a team high seven rebounds, six steals and four assists. Freshman Kade Manley added eight points with two 3-pointers.

“Nate’s been around me for a long time. I’ve known him since he was young, real young. His mom went (to school) here,” Giddens said.

It’s not a coincidence that Kirk, Thomas an Newland led the way for Mainland. They were all starters last year and cried when the Bucs lost to Miami Belen Jesuit in the Class 5A state championship game, Giddens said.

“Those guys’ focus is a little different,” Giddens said. “They get everybody else prepared. They are important to what we want to do.”

Mainland improved to 20-6 and bounced back from a tight 43-39 win over St. Augustine in the district championship game on Feb. 10. The Bucs led Pine Forest 26-14 at the half and went up by 19 (53-34) with 1:45 left in the game.

“I think the St. Augustine game kind of woke us a little bit,” Giddens said. “We had a great week of practice, and when we came out, we were prepared. Defensively, I thought we did a great job.”

Mainland’s Narayan Thomas (3) goes airborne on the way to a dunk.

The Bucs, seeded first in the region, host No. 4 seed Pensacola Washington in a regional semifinal at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 20. Washington defeated Fort Walton Beach Choctawhatchee 61-58 to advance.

FPC, Seabreeze, Matanzas win medals at weightlifting championships Four local weightlifters reach the podium at the Class 2A and 3A girls state championships.

Flagler Palm Coast senior Zoey Gotera placed third.

BRENT WORONOFF ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Flagler Palm Coast senior Zoey Gotera wanted to earn a state weightlifting medal to wear at her graduation ceremony. Now she has a bronze medal to go with her cap and gown.

Gotera was one of four local lifters to reach the podium at the Class 2A and 3A girls state weightlifting championships on Feb. 16-17 in Lakeland.

Gotera placed third in the unlimited Olympic competition at the 3A championships, lifting a total of 335 pounds with 140 in the snatch and 195 in the clean and jerk.

FPC freshman Nya Williams placed fifth in the 110-pound Olympic competition with a 255 total (115 snatch, 140 clean and jerk). Williams just missed a second medal, finishing seventh in the traditional competition. She tied Mackenzie Lamm of Navarre with a 260 total, but Lamm won the tiebreaker for sixth place on body weight.

Seabreeze junior Sofia James and Matanzas senior Rilee Whitmore placed fourth and fifth, respectively, in the 169-pound traditional competition at the Class 2A championships. James lifted a total of 350 pounds (175 in both clean and jerk and bench press), while Whitmore lifted 345 (185 clean and jerk, 160 bench).

“It was quite competitive. She was very happy with herself,” Seabreeze coach Tarisa Craig-Craggy said of James. “We didn’t realize how strong the competition was. In the other regions, the girls didn’t have to max out (at their regional meets). She has kind of made a pact with herself to get back on the podium (next year) in both categories, not just one (James finished eighth in Olympic).”

Seabreeze and Matanzas were in the strongest region among 169-pounders with three lifters, including state champ Mopelola Tofade of New Smyrna Beach, placing among the top five. Mopeola lifted a total of 385 pounds to win the traditional title

by 25 pounds. Mopeola also won the Olympic title.

Matanzas coach Jeremy Ossler said Whitmore’s fifth-place finish was the highest a Pirate has placed at the girls championships in his five years as the head coach.

“She did really well,” Ossler said.

“She tied her personal best for the clean and jerk).”

FPC’s Madeline Brinker, Shey Paul and Chloe Long and Matanzas’ Alicia Natticchione also competed at state. Paul placed 10th in the 154-pound Olympic competition with a 300-pound total.

Brinker placed 12th in the 110-pound Olympic competition with a 200 pound total. Long, competing in the 183-pound class, finished 14th in Olympic (295 pounds) and 17th in traditional (295). Naticchione placed 14th in the 199-pound traditional competition with a 295 total.

FPC placed 12th as a team in the Olympic competition.

Quality tennis at PC Open BRENT WORONOFF ASSOCIATE EDITOR

One of the major attractions for the competitors at the Palm Coast Open tennis tournament, especially among the Europeans, were the wild turkeys.

Turkeys were seen running around the grassy area behind the newlybuilt Southern Recreation Center building adjacent to the Palm Tennis Center’s clay courts.

The Europeans were not familiar with wild turkeys, Steve Zoutman, the Southern Recreation Center supervisor, said.

There were no signs of turkeys on the clay courts during the week-long $15,000 United States Tennis Association pro circuit event, however.

“We had great competition,” Zoutman said. “So much so, that the USTA player development chief came down to watch a lot of the people from Europe.”

Dimitry Popko of Kazakhstan, ranked 325 by the Association of Tennis Professionals, won the singles title in a match that was delayed a day to Monday, Feb. 19, because of rain.

Popko defeated former University of Florida player Andres Andrade of Ecuador in three sets, 7-5, 1-6, 7-5.

Andrade, 25 was ranked 650 by the ATP heading into the tournament.

Andrade and Alex Rybakov of Coral Springs won the doubles title on Saturday, Feb. 17, defeating Juan Sebastian Gomez of Colombia and Finn Reynolds of New Zealand, 6-1, 6-3.

Andrade and Rybakov played together for the first time the previous week in the USTA pro circuit tournament in Sunrise and won the the title. At Palm Coast, they made it two for two.

“I think we have good chemistry and that’s obviously showing off,” Andrade said.

Before the doubles match, Andrade defeated his doubles partner in the second singles semifinal, 6-2, 7-6 (7-4). Popko defeated Gabi Adrian Boitan of Romania — the 2023 Palm Coast Open champ — in the first semifinal on Feb. 16, 6-2, 6-0.

Rybakov, 27, who is ranked 301 by the ATP, also advanced to the singles final at Sunrise. Advancing so far in tournaments has been both rewarding and a challenge, Rybakov said.

“It’s been a lot of matches,” Rybakov said. “It’s been good to kind of challenge my body a bit, because I’ve had a lot of ups and downs with injuries, but I’m feeling good. So I just want to take a couple of days rest and just keep it going next week.

The third tournament on the Florida circuit, the $25,000 Naples tournament, started on Feb. 19.

Matanzas and Flagler Palm Coast took the top two places at the Region 1 girls wrestling championships on Feb. 17 at Chiles High School in Tallahassee.

The Pirates won the region title for the third year in a row. The reigning state champs compiled 160 points.

FPC was second with 110 points followed by District 3 runner-up Middleburg with 104 points. Mainland tied for ninth place with 50 points.

Four of the Bulldogs’ five regional wrestlers qualified for the state championships with Christina Borgmann (125 pounds), Ana Vilar (130 pounds) and Alexa Calidonio (170 pounds) winning regional championships. Borgmann, who placed second at state last year, improved her record for the season to 21-0, while Vilar improved to 33-1. Vilar placed sixth at state last year.

Joslyn Johnson also qualified for FPC, placing second in the 100-pound weight class. Johnson (29-5) lost a 7-3 decision to undefeated Camdyn Elliott of Gulf Breeze.

Matanzas juniors Maria Mills (110 pounds) and Tiana Fries (140 pounds) also won region titles as the Pirates qualified six of their 11 wrestlers for the state championships.

Fries and Mills both placed at state in each of the last two years. Fries, who is 27-2 this season, won a state championship as a freshman and placed fifth at state last year. Mills, who improved to 33-1, placed third at state in each of the past two seasons.

The Pirates’ other state qualifiers are Jazzy Golder, who placed second at 105 pounds at regional; Autumn Jarvis, second at 120; Kendall Bibla, second at 145; and Ani Brown, second at 190.

Mainland’s Cheyenne Wigley qualified for state for the third year in a row. Wigley placed second at region in the 235-pound weight class. The senior placed seventh at state in each of the past two years.

Bibla and Brown lost to the same wrestler in their title matches two weeks in a row. Brown finished second to undefeated Cheyenne Cruce

Matanzas regional champs Tiana Fries and Mariah Mills.

of Middleburg in the district and regional finals.

Bibla lost to Bartram Trail’s Katherine Stewart (pin, 3:31) for the seventh time in eight matches over the past two seasons. But the Matanzas wrestler hopes to duplicate her result from last year, falling to Stewart in the district and region finals but beating her in the state championship match.

with the top 3,000-meter time in the country. He replied, “I hope not.

I want to surprise people.”

His track coach, Mike Pane, said Seth “has a strong work ethic and is committed to getting better on and off the track.”

Seth said his goal is to try to improve on his personal record each week.

“It’s not about competition, I usually focus more about (myself) than others,” he said.

But he said he was aware of Johnson trailing him.

“Dominic has a lot of really good kicks and catches a lot runners off guard with it,” Seth said. “So I was making sure he stayed the same distance (behind me) the whole race.”

Seth noted that the outdoor season will be harder because not all of the runners compete in indoor meets.

Seth now has two state championships to go with his runner-up finish at the Florida Middle School Cross Country Championships in October.

Three Flagler County high school wrestlers won titles at boys district tournaments Feb. 15-16.

Matanzas’ Jordan Mills won the 190-pound title at the District 4-2A tournament at New Smyrna Beach.

It hasn’t been an easy season for Seabreeze’s girls basketball team. But senior Sarahnoel Randolph hasn’t stopped pulling down rebounds.

Randolph surpassed 1,000 rebounds in her career during a 59-28 loss against Flagler Palm Coast at the FPC gym on Monday, Jan. 8. She entered the game ranked fourth in the state with 16.7 rebounds a game.

“I play volleyball, so I just kind of see the ball and I jump,” Randolph said. “I think I have a high vertical (leap) for my height (5-foot-5). I think I’m just good at niche things.”

The Sandcrabs fell to 1-10 with the loss. FPC freshman Ava Works led the Bulldogs (5-7) with 25 points. It was her third straight game with 20 or more points.

“I definitely have more confidence,” Works said. “I scored a lot in our first game back from break. After that, I knew I can do it.”

Works began the year as FPC’s point guard. Now she and sophomore Alexandria Connerton are sharing the role.

“We’re switching them up so Ava can get her shot more,” FPC coach George Butts said.

“She’s growing up. I told her that tonight, I wanted her to start early. I didn’t want her to wait.”

Works responded with 12 first-half points.

Tori Spann added nine points for the Bulldogs. Connerton and Kiera Clark scored eight points apiece.

Randolph, who is also leading Seabreeze in scoring with 12 points per game, scored a team-high 10 points against the Bulldogs.

Randolph was an all-area volleyball player as a middle blocker and said it would be fun if she can be named allarea in basketball too. Her eye-popping rebound totals might help her reach that honor.

“I’m more of a volleyball player, but I really like basketball,” said Randolph, who will concentrate on academics in college. She plans to major in political science at either the University of Florida or UCF and hopes to eventually become an appellate lawyer.

She said she’d like to see the Seabreeze girls basketball program grow after she graduates.

“We’ve had a lot of girls transfer this year, and we’re really young,” Randolph said.

“My goal is to help this team rebuild. I want people to come to Seabreeze and play basketball after I leave.”

The Sandcrabs planned to honor Randolph before their home game against Father Lopez on Thursday, Jan. 11 for achieving the rebounding

milestone.

“She’s not just our best player, she’s a positive leader for the team,” Seabreeze coach Jessica Herron said.

“She needed five rebounds to get 1,000. We thought about calling a timeout when she did it. But we just decided to do something for her at home.”

FPC is also a young team.

But after losing five in a row, the Bulldogs have now won four of their last five.

“We’ve had a tough schedule, but we’re getting there,” Butts said.

cal strength. I knew there was no better place to do that than in the United States, so I took the first opportunity I got and moved to the states.”

Before he was able to open his own gym, he worked at other fitness facilities and did at-home personal training. In 2010, when Kolozsvari opened Revive, he had 13 clients follow him to Revive from the gym he worked at previously.

Revive trainers work with people 10-87 years old, and half of their clients are over the age of 50. They focus on creating strength, stamina, functionality and well-being on top of offering nutritional consultation and programs to each client.

Each member of Revive receives a personalized fitness and nutrition plan based on their body, health, fitness

level, goals and concerns.

A movement screening takes place before their plan is created to find exactly where the body is lacking and to see how the body moves.

Kolozsvari said a big part of his and Revive’s vision is that knowledge is more powerful than physical strength.

Carlo Solorzano has been an employee at Revive for four years and a manager for a little

over a year. He has a bachelor’s degree in sports medicine and 10 years of experience in the fitness industry.

“Even with my background and experience, I have learned so much from Arnold,” Solorzano said. “He is constantly on us and himself about keeping up on our education and critiquing us so we can be better all around.”

It hasn’t been an easy season for Seabreeze’s girls basketball team. But senior Sarahnoel Randolph hasn’t stopped pulling down rebounds.

Randolph surpassed 1,000 rebounds in her career during a 59-28 loss against Flagler Palm Coast at the FPC gym on Monday, Jan. 8. She entered the game ranked fourth in the state with 16.7 rebounds a game.

“I play volleyball, so I just kind of see the ball and I jump,” Randolph said. “I think I have a high vertical (leap) for my height (5-foot-5). I think I’m just good at niche things.”

The Sandcrabs fell to 1-10 with the loss. FPC freshman Ava Works led the Bulldogs (5-7) with 25 points. It was her third straight game with 20 or more points.

“I definitely have more confidence,” Works said. “I scored a lot in our first game back from break. After that, I knew I can do it.”

Works began the year as FPC’s point guard. Now she and sophomore Alexandria Connerton are sharing the role.

“We’re switching them up so Ava can get her shot more,” FPC coach George Butts said.

“She’s growing up. I told her that tonight, I wanted her to start early. I didn’t want her to wait.”

Works responded with 12 first-half points.

Tori Spann added nine points for the Bulldogs. Connerton and Kiera Clark scored eight points apiece.

Randolph, who is also leading Seabreeze in scoring with 12 points per game, scored a team-high 10 points against the Bulldogs.

Randolph was an all-area volleyball player as a middle blocker and said it would be fun if she can be named allarea in basketball too. Her eye-popping rebound totals might help her reach that honor.

“I’m more of a volleyball player, but I really like basketball,” said Randolph, who will concentrate on academics in college. She plans to major in political science at either the University of Florida or UCF and hopes to eventually become an appellate lawyer.

She said she’d like to see the Seabreeze girls basketball program grow after she graduates.

“We’ve had a lot of girls transfer this year, and we’re really young,” Randolph said.

“My goal is to help this team rebuild. I want people to come to Seabreeze and play basketball after I leave.”

The Sandcrabs planned to honor Randolph before their home game against Father Lopez on Thursday, Jan. 11 for achieving the rebounding

milestone.

“She’s not just our best player, she’s a positive leader for the team,” Seabreeze coach Jessica Herron said.

“She needed five rebounds to get 1,000. We thought about calling a timeout when she did it. But we just decided to do something for her at home.”

FPC is also a young team.

But after losing five in a row, the Bulldogs have now won four of their last five.

“We’ve had a tough schedule, but we’re getting there,” Butts said.

cal strength. I knew there was no better place to do that than in the United States, so I took the first opportunity I got and moved to the states.”

Before he was able to open his own gym, he worked at other fitness facilities and did at-home personal training. In 2010, when Kolozsvari opened Revive, he had 13 clients follow him to Revive from the gym he worked at previously.

Revive trainers work with people 10-87 years old, and half of their clients are over the age of 50. They focus on creating strength, stamina, functionality and well-being on top of offering nutritional consultation and programs to each client.

Each member of Revive receives a personalized fitness and nutrition plan based on their body, health, fitness

level, goals and concerns.

A movement screening takes place before their plan is created to find exactly where the body is lacking and to see how the body moves.

Kolozsvari said a big part of his and Revive’s vision is that knowledge is more powerful than physical strength.

Carlo Solorzano has been an employee at Revive for four years and a manager for a little

over a year. He has a bachelor’s degree in sports medicine and 10 years of experience in the fitness industry.

“Even with my background and experience, I have learned so much from Arnold,” Solorzano said. “He is constantly on us and himself about keeping up on our education and critiquing us so we can be better all around.”
