MetroNet starts local construction MetroNet, the Indianabased telecommunications company investing $50 million to establish a highspeed internet fiber optic network in Palm Coast, is beginning construction.

MetroNet will be offering 10-gigabit internet.

“I’m very excited to say we have roughly 10,000 feet of underground already established, and they tell me that is the ring to feed Section C and D,” Kris Smith, MetroNet’s director of government affairs, told City Council members on June 7.

The company is notifying locals about the construction.

“We say, ‘Hey, it’s construction, we’re coming, here’s how to contact us directly: Do you have some special landscaping that you want us to be aware of? Do you have an underground dog fence? Do you have an irrigation line?” Smith said.

“If you contact us directly, MetroNet will bring you flags and/or washable spray paint so that we can find out what areas you want us to be careful of.”

Council delays vote on Ryan’s Landing Palm Coast’s City Council has delayed a vote on a proposed Seagate community called Ryan’s Landing, citing safety concerns about the placement of its main entrance road across from a school bus stop.

The development would bring 95 age-restricted single-family homes to a triangular plot of vacant land in the city’s R Section.

The council decided to wait until a future meeting to vote on a rezoning that would allow the development to move forward.

In its first-reading vote, on May 17, the council had approved the development proposal unanimously. The proposal had also earned the city planning board’s approval in a 6-1 vote on April 20.

But at the June 7 meeting, Councilman Ed Danko said the entrance’s placement near the bus stop wasn’t acceptable.

“That school bus stop is directly across from that gate,” Danko said to Jay Livingston, an attorney representing the developer at the meeting.

“If there’s an accident in the middle of that road, it could it could hurt or kill some of the students.”

He added, “I’m not going to sign off on something that could get one of our school kids killed. That entrance needs to be moved.”

“And where will we move it, then?”

Livingston said.

“I don’t know; that’s not my problem,” Danko replied. “You guys are the developers. Pick another spot. ...

We need to get that done, and then revisit this.”

Ray Tyner, the city’s deputy chief development officer, said that if the council approved the rezoning, city staff and school district staff could still work together to revise the subdivision’s master plan to accommodate the bus stop before the council votes on the development’s final plat. Danko said he wouldn’t be willing to approve the rezoning until the issue is resolved.

“I’m pro-development. I love Seagate; they build great stuff,” he said. “But I’m not going to look back one day and have a bus accident with some cars and some kids hurt and know that I could have prevented it.”

BY THE NUMBERS

This is the location of the proposed Ryan's Landing 55+ community, as shown in City Council meeting documents. At the June 7 meeting, Councilman Ed Danko said the entrance’s placement near the bus stop wasn’t acceptable. “I’m not going to sign off on something that could get one of our school kids killed. That entrance needs to be moved.”

There has been a local and statewide uptick in COVID-19 cases in recent weeks from the Omicron 2121 variant, according to the Florida Department of Health in Flagler County. Here are the latest statistics.

270

231.4 Mayor David Alfin noted that the school district controls bus stop locations, and can move them.

“I feel that the school district should be responsible for the safety of their bus stops,” Alfin said, “because they choose where they are, and they actually schedule and assign the drivers to stop where they do.”

Danko also thought that the development’s number of entrances — one regular entrance, plus an emergency exit — was insufficient.

Councilman John Fanelli said he’d also prefer that the development have two full entrances.

Livingston said the developer wouldn’t object to improving the secondary entrance.

Danko proposed delaying a vote on the rezoning until the city could find out if the development’s entrance road could be shifted away from the bus stop. The council voted 3-2 in favor of the delay, with Alfin and Councilman Nick Klufas dissenting.

The development originally came before the council for rezoning because the developer’s current proposal for 95 homes on the property is an increase from its initial

plan to build 64 homes plus a 5-acre park there.

In exchange for cutting the onsite park, the developer has agreed to grant the city government a 5-acre vacant parcel that the developer owns next to the city’s existing Seminole Woods Neighborhood Park, which the city wants to expand.

Those changes to the community’s development plan require a rezoning.

Council members, during earlier discussions on the Ryan’s Landing proposal, had also recommended that the developer include a buffer wall or fence and add the developer’s proposed 55+ age restriction to the development’s Master Planned Development Agreement.

The developer did so.

The houses will have a minimum of 1,500 feet, Livingston said.

That’s an increase from a 1,200foot minimum in the earlier proposed version of the master planned development agreement.

Although the development wouldn’t have its own park, it would have a community center, two dog walk areas, a walking path and benches around a central lake.

ABOUT THE CLUBS Boys & Girls Clubs have been strategically placed in eight communities in the areas of greatest need within Volusia and Flagler counties.

The clubs provide safe environments for youth during nonschool hours, Monday through Friday, select weekends and summer.

According to bgcvfc.org, “The clubs offer young people adults who respect and listen to them, a safe environment and constructive activities that channel youthful energy into challenging pursuits.

Additionally, we engage adult family members through educational and personal development opportunities. Our traditional values and the belief that every child has the inherent ability to be great is what positions us in the forefront of youth development.”

Driven to serve

Boys & Girls Clubs helped shape Emma Sanders’ aspirations BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

Emma Sanders has been compelled to serve others ever since she joined the Flagler County Boys & Girls Club 22 years ago.

Sanders was the first member of the Flagler club, joining when she was 11 years old. She had to forge her mother’s signature to get in.

“You’re supposed to take the membership paper home and get your parents to fill it out,” she said.

“But my mother was asleep during the day, and she was up at night, so I forged her signature.”

The club, and unit director Hugh Brown, came along at the right time in Sanders’ life. She grew up in Bunnell in a broken home. Home, itself, would change locations.

“I would live with my grandmother this year, or my aunt’s house, or a family friend, or someone that was nice to me in the community. That was what home life was like,” she said.

Sanders would walk to the Carver Center after school and feel safe. It was the constancy she needed. And Brown became the father figure she didn’t have.

“With his personality, Mr. Brown brought more kids in, and me, being a person who talks a lot, spread the word,” Sanders said. “He grew it so we would have mentors come out.

There would be different classes on substance misuse and peer pressure.

There was a power hour so you could get your homework done. It was recreational as well, but they also tried to give kids tools and skills.”

Sanders quickly became a leader.

When she was a freshman in high school she became the youngest person to be named the Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties’ Youth of the Year. In fact, she was too young to compete for the statewide honor with a college scholarship as the prize.

That same year, at age 15, she got her first job as a youth development worker for the club. She went on to graduate from Bethune-Cookman University with a degree in sociology. Today, she is a domestic violence outreach and prevention specialist for the Beacon Center in Ormond Beach.

"There was always something special about (Sanders). I like to think we brought that out of her. She really wants to be in the business of saving lives.

I'm really proud of her."

JOE SULLIVAN, Chief Professional Officer of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/ Flagler Counties.

LOCAL GROWTH

Joe Sullivan has been the chief professional officer of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties since the first local club was founded in 1992. The organization is celebrating its 30 anniversary this year.

Sullivan has known Sanders since she became Flagler’s charter member.

“There was always something special about her. I like to think we brought that out of her,” he said.

“She really wants to be in the business of saving lives. I’m really proud of her.”

Like Sanders, Sullivan was a member of a Boys & Girls Club himself as a youngster. He grew up in Minneapolis in the 1960s.

“My mom was a single parent,” he said. “She was a nurse who worked from 3 to 11. My brother and I were latchkey kids before there was a name for it. We spent a lot of time (with the club).”

Sullivan got a job with the organization in 1980 and he has been working for Boys & Girls Clubs of America ever since. He helped build the Volusia/Flagler organization from the ground up. He had no full-time staff for the first four years and ran the Deltona club himself.

“I’ve always felt more comfortable in gym shorts than a suit and tie,” he said. “I’m probably a little more comfortable working with the kids than grant writing.”

There are eight clubs now in Volusia and Flagler counties — Holly Hill, Daytona Beach, Deltona, DeLand, Lake Helen, New Smyrna Beach, Edgewater and Flagler. The clubs are open every day after school and all day during the summer. The eight clubs serve over 1,000 kids.

“No one’s in a better position (than the Boys & Girls Clubs) helping kids and families that need it most,” Sullivan said.

FULL CIRCLE?

The Flagler club is now based at Rymfire Elementary School and has over 100 youth members. Carolyn Thompson is Flagler’s unit director. Simone Gonzalez is the program specialist. Malik Murray, 15, has been a member for eight years. He was named Flagler’s Youth of the Year, and got to speak at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Volusia/Flagler Counties’ Steak & Steak Gala on June 2 at the Hilton Daytona Beach. Murray said

he spoke about his grandmother, who died in 2018.

“I always talked to her about deep stuff,” he said. “The Boys & Girls Club helped me cope.”

Sanders would like to see a second club open in Flagler County, closer to some of the disadvantaged youth in the Bunnell area. Sullivan would like to see that happen too.

“We want to open another club up here,” he said as he checked in on the club at Rymfire on June 6. “I’d love for Emma to run it, but I don’t think I can afford her.”

The idea does appeal to Sanders, who spoke passionately about the Boys & Girls Clubs at the Steak & Steak Gala, the organization’s annual fund-raising event that drew 700 people.

Sanders works in Volusia County, but she still lives in Bunnell and does what she can for the community, hosting trunk and treats, giving away meals at Christmas and haircuts for kids at school. She’d like to do more.

“I do want to give back here,” she said. “You want to make sure we’re getting those kids who are kind of left out and needing somewhere to go or

a safe place to be. The Boys & Girls Clubs help kids dream. You get to go places you never thought you could go. You get invited to golf tournaments. You learn how to play tennis.

The next Tiger Woods could be one of these kids who never would have gotten a chance to swing a golf club.”

State funds two Flagler initiatives in budget signed by DeSantis The Septic to Sewer Conversion on the Barrier Island and Flagler Central Commerce Parkway have been funded at $8 million and $6.8 million, respectively.

RENNER PRAISES DESANTIS’ LIMITED SPENDING APPROACH

ROSE KEIRNAN FLAGLER COUNTY, PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICE

Gov. Ron DeSantis on Thursday, June 2, signed the state budget for the fiscal year that begins July 1. Within the approved Florida budget are allocations for two projects significant to Flagler County: the Septic to Sewer conversion for the barrier island and the SR100 by-pass, the future extension of Flagler Central Commerce Parkway.

“We live in the greatest county, and I believe we have some of the greatest representation. I cannot thank Gov. DeSantis, Sen. Hutson,

things that are critically important to everyday folks every single day.

Museums — we will have to try to raise some local funds for that.”

If a hurricane hits Florida, for example, those $3 billion will be needed to help the state recuperate. “Between the two, let’s be honest, that’s more important,” Renner said.

State Rep. Paul Renner, who is in line to become Speaker of the House after the 2022 election, spoke about the budget June 3, on WZNF’s “Free For All Friday.”

He praised Gov. Ron DeSantis for approving to septic-to-sewer and Central Commerce Parkway projects for Flagler County, and he said it was appropriate, in this case, to veto the Florida Agricultural Museum funding.

“Anytime you have to get 160 [lawmakers] to agree exactly on a budget ... you’re going to have projects in there that, in fairness, are not necessarily what taxpayers ought to be paying for,” Renner said.

Renner said he aligns closely with DeSantis in the view that government spending should be limited.

Central Commerce Parkway has been funded in the amount of $6.8 million, near the Flagler County Government Services Building.

TRAVIS HUTSON: ‘WE GOT IT DONE’

State Rep. Paul Renner, at WNZF studios, made the case that keeping more money in state reserves before hurricane season is more important than funding the Florida Agricultural Museum’s expansion this year.

“I have no issues, at all, with the governor vetoing some things,” Renner said. “I feel badly for the Ag Museum, because it was on the

and Rep. Renner enough for their work and commitment to the needs of Flagler County’s residents,” said County Commission Chair Joe Mullins. “It is especially gratifying to see that these long-awaited infrastructure improvements will be funded, because they are so perfectly aligned with our community’s priorities: protecting our natural resources, making smart decisions for the growth we’re experiencing, and laying the groundwork to attract clean, robust economic development to our area.”

The Flagler County “Septic to Sewer Conversion on the Barrier Island” Appropriations has been funded in the amount of $8 million, which is $1.6 million more than requested and has allowed the county to expand the original scope of work. Addressing water that drains to the Matanzas inlet, and which impacts Class II shell fishing waters in both Flagler and St. Johns counties, this project

chopping block. But museums and that kind of thing are not going to be at the top of our list compared to public safety or education or

is a big step towards the elimination of septic tank pollution on the barrier island. It will provide a layer of “storm hardening” for residents in the area to help protect them from future weather events.

The Septic to Sewer Conversion includes construction of a wastewater force main extension along State Road A1A to MalaCompra Road, Hammock Community Center, and ultimately Marineland. This backbone will allow residential neighborhoods and businesses to connect to the system, making the conversion complete.

The “Flagler Central Commerce Parkway” Appropriations has been funded in the amount of $6.8 million. The 1.7-mile expansion of this roadway will connect State Road 100 and U.S. 1 to unlock more than 1,000 acres of property for industrial, residential, and governmental development. The extended Parkway has the potential to foster economic growth

In a phone call later on June 3, Sen. Travis Hutson, who also represents Flagler County, was also pleased with the outcome of the budget.

“We were able to bring home some significant dollars, and I appreciate our colleagues in local government, and Rep. Renner for helping championing the allocations on the other side,” Hutson said. “It was a team effort for everybody, and we got it done.”

in the city of Bunnell, create accessible areas for the development of multifamily affordable housing, and it will provide another emergency evacuation route for those in the county. Design work for this $11.8 million roadway project has been completed and the permits obtained for construction.

“We look forward to the opportunity to collaborate with our partners at the city of Bunnell, and we’ll be working closely with them to identify the local funding for this vital roadway,” said County Administrator Heidi Petito. “It’s quite exciting that these two infrastructure projects — aligned as they are with the community priorities that residents identified during our Strategic Planning public meetings — have also received such strong support from our elected officials, and are now approved by Governor DeSantis in the Freedom First Budget.”

Kyle Berryhill will County OKs first Veranda Bay phases become city fire chief

NEWS EDITOR

After years of controversy and litigation, the proposed development formerly known as The Gardens — now called Veranda Bay — is cleared to move forward with work on the initial two phases.

Workers will start the first phase of the 824-acre, 335lot development with 56 homes in the development’s northeast corner, near the Intracoastal Waterway. A second phase will add 66 homes just to the south.

The Flagler County Commission voted 5-0 to approve the final plat for the two phases during a commission meeting on June 6. There will be six phases overall.

The Veranda Bay development will ultimately straddle John Anderson Highway, but the two phases approved on June 6 are both on the east side of the road.

“It is now June of ’22. Mr. Belshe and his company purchased this with the intent to develop it in May of 2018,” attorney Michael Chiumento said, representing developer Ken Belshe of Palm Coast Intracoastal LLC at the commission meeting. “So you can see this process is pushing a half a decade to get to the point where we’re going to start vertical construction.”

Although the number of units in the current 335-lot proposal put forth by Palm Coast Intracoastal LLC is dramatically reduced from an earlier proposal that would have included 3,966 homes, opponents have said they believe the scaled-back development would still contribute to area stormwater drainage problems, overwhelm John Anderson Highway with traffic and degrade Below Creek, a wooded stream just west of the development.

Some locals formed a community group called “Preserve Flagler Beach and Bulow Creek” to fight the proposed development, speaking at commission meetings and bringing a case before the Circuit Court in the hope of voiding the County Commission’s 2020 3-2 vote that cleared the way for the development to proceed.

BRIEFS Officials issue algae warning for Bull Creek north of Fish Camp The Florida Department of Health in Flagler County has issued a health alert for the presence of harmful bluegreen algal toxins in Bull Creek, north of Fish Camp.

The alert is in response to a water sample taken on May 25. Residents and visitors should take the following precautions: Do not drink, swim, wade, use personal watercraft, water ski or boat in waters where there is a visible bloom.

Wash your skin and clothing with soap and water if you have contact with algae or discolored or smelly water.

Keep pets away from the area. Waters where there are algae blooms are not safe for animals. Pets and livestock should have a different source of water when algae blooms are present. Contact your veterinarian if you believe your pet has become ill after consuming or having contact

County Commissioner Andy Dance

LT. PATRICK JULIANO

The developer won that case.

The community group appealed, but the appeals court upheld the lower court’s decision.

A few people appeared at the June 6 meeting to question the proposed development’s handling of environmental issues like on-site gopher tortoises or potential arsenic, but county Growth Management Director Mengel said there are already processes in place to make sure that developers comply with environmental regulations.

“You’ve got the vacant land there now ... you’ve got to remediate in order to have it for some other use,” Mengel said. “We have state agencies that consider these things.”

Commissioner Greg Hansen was wary of the development’s potential impact on area stormwater drainage.

“Every time you see a development in Flagler County, they say, ‘Well, we’re going to contain our water,’ but the water always goes where water goes, and that’s downhill — and it’s downhill to Palm Avenue and Palm Drive, so that bothers me,” Hansen said. “I think we’re putting those homes in jeopardy.”

“The city of Flagler Beach has done their study to look at what’s causing the flooding on Palm Drive, and it’s not us,” Chiumento said.

“It’s a dysfunctional stormwater system that they have on Palm Drive that has not been maintained by that association.”

Commissioner Andy Dance was unsatisfied with the lack of specificity in the developer’s plans for the parcel’s large oak trees, noting that the plans say the trees “may” be saved.

“I think some stronger language in the future may be helpful,” Dance said.

The County Commission’s approval of the first two phases of development is contingent on the developer providing a $11.7 million performance bond to cover the cost of building out the development if Palm Coast Intracoastal LLC doesn’t do so.

with blue-green algae contaminated water.

Do not cook or clean dishes with water contaminated by algae blooms. Boiling water will not eliminate the toxins.

Eating fillets from healthy fish caught in freshwater lakes experiencing blooms is safe. Rinse fish fillets with tap or bottled water, throw out the guts and cook fish well.

Do not eat shellfish in waters with algae blooms.

AAA: $5-pergallon gas is likely Florida gas jumped 18 cents last week, reaching a high of $4.76 per gallon on June 5.

Prices are 66% higher than a year ago. It costs $71 to fill an average size 15-gallon tank.

“Unfortunately, the pain at the pump is likely to get even worse this week,” said Mark Jenkins, spokesman for AAA - The Auto Club Group. “Gasoline made very strong gains in the futures market last week.

When that happens, we normally see retail prices rise. ...

At this rate, it sure seems like there’s very little resistance to rising prices at the pump, and $5 a gallon is quickly becoming a very real possibility this summer.”

PALM COAST FIRE PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICER

Kyle Berryhill will be the next chief of the Palm Coast Fire Department.

Berryhill, a battalion chief, will succeed Fire Chief Jerry Forte at a formal transfer of command ceremony scheduled for Oct. 14.

Palm Coast City Manager Denise Bevan appointed Berryhill at a June 7 City Council meeting as the council recognized the 2021-2022 graduates of the city’s Leadership in Training Experience (LITE) program; Berryhill is a 2018 LITE Team graduate.

“Kyle is an invaluable member of our organization and is a mentor and friend to many, especially at the Fire Department,” Bevan said. “I hope you will join me in congratulating soon-to-be Fire Chief Berryhill on this well-earned promotion. And a very special thank you to Chief Jerry Forte on your dedication to this organization and this community, and for helping to raise up our future leaders.”

Berryhill previously served as interim fire chief in 2021 while Forte served as interim assistant city manager, and Deputy Fire Chief Bradd Clark served as interim fire chief of Flagler County Fire Rescue.

The City of Palm Coast brings the fun!

Over the last year, Berryhill has been mentoring under Forte and Clark to prepare for this opportunity.

“I think we are in good hands — we left good hands to go just to equally good hands,” City Councilman Eddie Branquinho said at the meeting after Bevan announced Berryhill’s appointment.

Berryhill joined the Palm Coast Fire Department in August 2005.

He was promoted to lieutenant in 2011, captain in 2017 and battalion chief in 2019.

As part of the department’s succession plan, the department is prepared to make the appointments in the line of succession created by Berryhill’s appointment to fire chief.

“Chief Forte leaves with us the seed and the genesis of the succession plan you just heard regarding the LITE team, so he will forever be a part of all we succeed and all we accomplish here at the city of Palm Coast,” Mayor David Alfin said.

Berryhill, a native of Central Florida, attended Central Florida Fire Academy for his EMT and firefighter certifications, and obtained his paramedic certification from Daytona State College in 2006.

He holds a bachelor’s degree in public administration from Flagler College and a master’s of public administration from Barry University.

“Over the last 16 years, I have had the distinct privilege of watching Kyle Berryhill grow into one of the finest chief officers,” Forte said. “Kyle’s appointment is a direct reflection of our succession and mentoring programs by investing in our most precious asset, our people.”

BEING A GOOD CITIZEN 3:07 p.m. — First block of South Beach Street, Ormond Beach Vandalism. The reporting officer met with a 78-year-old Ormond Beach man, who said he had ran over the wooden block with his truck the day before and gotten a flat tire as a result. He said he wanted to prevent the same thing from happening to others, and that there were large nails poking out of where the wooden block was. He pointed out where the nails had now been hammered into the ground.

The man told the officer he had removed the block with a hammer as a “good citizen.”

The officer informed the man that this was done on city property and that he could be liable for damages.

The officer showed a city employee the damages and informed him of what had occurred; the employee said the city wouldn’t pursue charges and that they would clean up the damages.

JUNE 1

FUEL STOLEN 1:57 p.m. — 100 block of North U.S. 1, Ormond Beach Larceny. Police arrived at a local gas station after receiving a call regarding the theft of $3,700 worth of diesel.

Video surveillance footage revealed two drivers attaching an unknown device to their respective pumps that opened the valves, allowing them to steal the diesel. In doing so, the suspects damaged the wiring in the pumps. The manager told police this will cost the gas station between $1,500 to $3,000. The store wished to pursue charges.

JUNE 3

ODDS NOT IN HIS FAVOR 2:06 a.m. — 2000 block of Grove Avenue, Bunnell Possession of drug paraphernalia. A 24-year-old Bunnell man was stopped by police for riding his bicycle on the wrong side of the road.

He also had no lights on his bicycle.

The reporting officer noted in an arrest report that the man was with two “other subjects who are known drug users,” and that the trio attempted to accelerate away from law enforcement prior to being stopped.

When asked if he was in possession of any drugs, the man hesitated and glanced at his right pocket before he said, “no.” He emptied his pockets, and the reporting officer saw a cut straw and a glass pipe with burnt residue.

The residue in the glass pipe tested positive for methamphetamine. He was taken to jail.

TOO TIRED TO DRIVE 3:33 p.m. — Intersection of Whipporwill Drive and Whiteview Parkway, Palm Coast Possession of fentanyl. A deputy was responding to a call of a man sleeping in the driver’s seat of his vehicle, which was stopped on the

side of the roadway. The man, a 32-year-old Palm Coast man, told deputies that he was passed out because he was tired.

Deputies observed drug paraphernalia “in plain view” inside the car, according to the man’s arrest report. The man was then secured in handcuffs, and when asked about the paraphernalia, he said he was told narcotics would help him with pain, and that he had smoked some heroin and meth that morning.

A small plastic bag with fentanyl was found inside the car, in addition to other drugs.

While being transported to jail, the man offered to give the deputy information on “two big time busts” if he released him. The deputy declined, and the man began kicking the inside of the car.

He was taken to jail.

JUNE 6

FRANTIC PARANOIA 4:58 a.m. — 2000 block of Commerce Parkway, Bunnell Carrying a concealed weapon. A 36-year-old Palm Coast woman was waving her hands “frantically” over head and holding a pink purse as she ran toward a deputy’s patrol vehicle, according to the woman’s arrest report. The woman told the deputy that she was unsure if people were in her car and admitted that she had just taken molly.

The woman asked the deputy to check her car and handed over her keys because she didn’t know if “people were after her,” her arrest report states. When asked if she had any weapons on her person, the woman said she had a set of “metallic knuckles” in her pink purse.

She pointed to her car, which had its driver’s side door ajar and had several items — two blankets and a cooler — scattered outside it.

Deputies found cocaine inside her vehicle. She was taken to jail.

BRIEFS

NHC: Hurricane season will be active EMERGENCY INFORMATION

La Nina, loop current could lead to major 2022 storms.

BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

On June 1, the first day of hurricane season, Flagler County Emergency Management Director Jonathan Lord held an informal briefing with the media in the Emergency Operations Center. On one of the big screens behind him was a map with an ‘X’ marking a system near the Yucatan Peninsula and a coned path stretching to Florida.

The system, which became the first tropical depression of the season (TD1) — and by June 5, the first named storm (Alex) — was certainly not a good omen more than two months before the peak of the Atlantic hurricane season.

“There were 21 named storms last year, and this year is supposed to be an active season again,” Lord advised.

On May 24, the National Hurricane Center predicted 14 to 21 named storms, 6 to 10 hurricanes and 3 to 6 major hurricanes this year. The 30-year average has been 14 named storms, 6 hurricanes and 3 major hurricanes.

There are signs of an active sea-

son. The La Nina climate pattern of cool Pacific waters could strengthen storms in the Atlantic. The loop current is warming water in the Gulf of Mexico. On the other hand, Saharan dust plumes reaching the state can decrease chances of hurricanes.

“All of those things can have no impact. But they all can raise or decrease hurricane potential,” Lord said.

The Emergency Management team has met with all personnel that may be assigned to the EOC during an emergency. The team also purchased additional supplies using grant funds and updated the WebEOC disaster management system.

Lord stressed how important it is for residents to make their own preparations.

“It’s super important that residents understand what they need to do to protect their homes and know if they’re in an evacuation zone,” he said.

Everyone should be prepared to be off the grid for up to a week after a hurricane, he said.

“Your internet will go down. It could be for a minute or it could be for days. And your power will flicker.

It may go out for a few minutes, or it

may go out for days,” Lord said, also noting that the FPL has been making the energy grid much more resilient.

Hurricane kits should include a gallon of water per person and pet per day, non-perishable food, seven days of medications, spare clothes and old linens and an AM/FM radio.

The disaster preparedness sales tax holiday ends on June 10.

The county is continuing its partnership with Flagler Schools, using Bunnell Elementary and Buddy Taylor/Wadsworth for shelters. Rymfire Elementary is the special needs shelter. The Florida Department of Health in Flagler County provides nurses for the special needs shelter.

Emergency Management asks those with special needs to register ahead of time.

Lord said the shelters won’t be going to enhanced spacing this year after the past two years of COVID-19 protocols. But they will have masks and test kits to pass out on request.

“We have all that stuff we bought.

We want to make sure people are comfortable,” he said.

The county is transitioning from the A through F evacuation zones, which confused some Palm Coast residents who live in lettered sections. This will be the last year that the zones will be used, but specific neighborhoods and landmarks will also be included in all evacuation orders.

Lord noted that the National Hurricane Center’s cone paths are becoming narrower as the center becomes more confident with their forecasts.

“The cones get smaller every few years,” he said. “But what’s hardest to predict is the the intensity of the storms. It could hit warm water just before landfall,” he said.

Deputies borrow a boat to apprehend a jet ski thief A resident of Ormond Beach loaned his boat to Volusia County deputies on June 5 to help them catch a man accused of trying to steal a jet ski.

The deputies were called to assist the Ormond Beach Police Department at Cassen Park Boat ramp with the alleged theft on the Intracoastal Waterway at marker 21.

Edited body camera video posted by the Volusia County Sheriff’s Office on Facebook shows deputies asking the Ormond man to borrow his boat, cruising out into the Intracoastal, and then finding a man sitting on a jet ski.

At first aiming a gun at the man, the deputy began talking with him and then lowered the gun. Deputies tossed a rope to the man, later identified as Ronald Williams, who said he couldn’t swim and didn’t have any weapons with him.

Williams, who is homeless, told deputies he was not able to get the engine started, according to the incident report.

“So you are going to take a jet ski and you don’t know how to swim?” a deputy said in the video.

Williams was taken into custody without incident, and the jet ski was returned to its owner.

Deputies then thanked the boat owner for lending them the boat.

While the Sheriff’s Office has boats, there wasn’t one available at the time, according to a VCSO spokesperson. VCSO helicopter Air One also assisted.

Ormond’s ‘Motor Officer of the Year’ Ormond Beach Police Officer Rick Taylor was selected on May 19, as the 2021 Motor Officer of the Year by the Goldwing Road Riders Association Chapter FL 1-H. According to a press release, the ceremony was held at the RiverGrille on the Tomoka restaurant. In attendance was Sen. Tom Wright, who presented Taylor with a proclamation.

“We are very proud of Officer Rick Taylor and all of his accomplishments while serving on the traffic unit,” said Ormond Beach Police Chief Jesse Godfrey in the press release. “I don’t think anyone that works here at the Ormond Beach Police Department would argue that he is one of the hardest working and most helpful officers we have.”

Teens arrested for armed robbery charge Keyshawn Davis, 19, was arrested after the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office executed a search warrant at 504 S. Church St., in Bunnell, for Robbery with a Weapon for an incident that occurred the day prior, where the victim reported being beaten and robbed by Davis at the Carver Gym in Bunnell.

On Thursday afternoon, May 26, the Sheriff’s 911 Dispatch Center received a call from a male advising he was robbed while at the Carver Gym and the Bunnell Police Department responded. The victim reported that two Black males took his phone and money from his pockets and one of the males pistol-whipped him during the incident. The investigation was launched and turned over to the FCSO Major Case Unit.

Davis’ criminal history in Flagler dates back to 2020. This is the sixth time he is being jailed. He’s facing charges for Robbery with a Weapon and being held on $100,000 bond.

Late Thursday, the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office arrested a 14-yearold for his involvement in the incident as well. The teen is no stranger to law enforcement, with a criminal history dating back to 2020, when he was just 12 years old.

Which road projects are most important? County weighs options Proposed projects include bridge replacements, road resurfacing and fourlanings.

JONATHAN SIMMONS NEWS EDITOR

Should John Anderson Highway be four-laned from State Road 100 south to the county line? If so, should that project be a higher priority than the four-laning of Colbert Lane or southern Old Kings Road?

Although the potential four-laning projects are likely years in the future and may not receive state funding, those questions, and a few others, led Flagler County commissioners on June 6 to delay a vote on a proposed priority list of transportation projects to submit to the Florida Department

FLAGLER COUNTY’S PROPOSED TRANSPORTATION PROJECT LIST Each year, Flagler County creates a prioritized list of projects to submit to the Florida Department of Transportation for potential funding in upcoming years.

The proposed FDOT Five-Year Work Program Project Priority List for the 2023/2024 fiscal year through the 2027/2028 fiscal year is below. County Commissioners opted not to vote on it during a June 6 commission, instead deciding to delay a decision until a meeting on June 18.

1. County Road 304 bridge replacements 2. C.R. 304 resurfacing segment 2 (S.R. 11 to U.S. 1) 3. Commerce Parkway improvements (S.R. 100 to U.S. 1)

4. Armand Beach Roads reconstruction 5. East Daytona North roadway paving (multiphase project) 6. Walnut Avenue paving from Forest Park Street to Water Oak Road 7. Westmayer Place paving 8. Jungle Hut Road resurfacing 9. Forest Park Street and C.R. 35 paving from S.R. 100 to end 10. C.R. 90 paving from Hickory Street to C.R. 75 11. Durrance Lane paving 12. Canal Avenue paving from Forest Park Street to Coconut Boulevard 13. West Flagler County roadway paving (multiphase project) 14. West Daytona North roadway paving (multiphase project)

of Transportation for funding.

The proposed list (see the box at right) includes 21 projects ranked from highest to lowest priory, starting with bridge replacements on County Road 304 and ending with the proposed four-laning of the S.R. 100 to Volusia County line stretch of John Anderson. The four-laning of Old Kings Road South is number 20 on the list, and the four-laning of Colbert Lane isn’t included — an omission one commissioner questioned.

Projects near the bottom of the list might not get funding.

Commissioners also delayed a vote on a proposed list of alternative transportation projects. That list starts with a proposed pedestrian multi-use bridge over U.S. 1 and concludes with a proposed Intracoastal Observation Platform at Herschel King Park.

“The No. 1 priority item listed on our FDOT priority list is to build a $22 million walk-and-bike-riding bridge over Route 1 one at the north end of the county; I just think at this point in time, and what’s been going on, there’s just — there may be a need for that at some point in the future, but not right now,” Commissioner David Sullivan said. “I don’t see that

15. Various roads roadway paving — C.R. 110, C.R. 140, C.R. 200, and C.R. 335 — 4.7 miles 16. Canal Avenue and Water Oak Road intersection improvement 17. St. Mary’s Place paving and drainage improvements – Old Dixie Highway to end of roadway 18. Old Kings Road North I-95 overpass 19. John Anderson Highway collector roadway resurfacing — Bulow Woods Circle, Trail Run, Indian Mound Court, and Creek Bluff Run 20. Old Kings Road South fourlaning from S.R. 100 to Flagler County line 21. John Anderson Highway fourlaning from S.R. 100 to Flagler County line

as our highest priority.”

Sullivan also questioned the inclusion of the John Anderson four-laning in the proposed list for FDOT’s fiveyear work plan, and the fact that the four-laning of Colbert Lane hadn’t made the list while the four-laning of Old Kings Road, which Sullivan considered a lower priority, had.

“Colbert Lane probably would need to be four lanes before either of those others,” he said, before acknowledging that FDOT technicalities may have affected the ranking.

“John Anderson has no place to go with the southern end, unless Volusia County is going getting ready to build some kind of major change there,” Sullivan said.

Commissioner Greg Hansen suggested pulling the John Anderson project off the list entirely.

County Engineer Faith Alhkatib said that Colbert Lane isn’t considered to be in need of four-laning at this point based on traffic studies, though it may need it in the future.

As to the John Anderson four-laning, she said, it’s behind $200 million worth of other road projects, and the scope of the project could change before the work would begin.

“Adding it on the list doesn’t mean

we are guaranteed to get the funding — I don’t see it happening within 10, 15 years,” she said.

Commissioner Joe Mullins said he’d like it to stay on the list.

Alkhatib said she’d add Colbert Lane to the list.

Commissioner Andy Dance said he had questions about the proposed pedestrian bridge on U.S. 1. “To me, more important than just the design is the master planning of that entire area, and how it fits in,” he said.

Sullivan suggested delaying a vote on both FDOT lists until a meeting on June 18. Other commissioners agreed.

ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS The county’s draft list of alternative transportation projects for fiscal years 2023/2024 through 2027/2028 is below.

Once it’s finalized, the county will submit it to the Florida Department of Transportation, seeking funding. Commissioners did not vote on the list at a June 6 meeting. Questioning whether the U.S. 1 multiuse bridge is really the most important project, they instead decided to delay a decision until June 18.

1. Pedestrian/multi-use bridge over U.S. 1 2. Bulow Creek Headwaters Regional Park 3. Old Kings Road North multiuse trail, Matanzas Woods Parkway to I-95 4. John Anderson Highway multi-use trail, S.R. 100 to Volusia County Line 5. U.S. 1 Trail — Royal Palms to Palm Coast Parkway 6. Revitalization of historic Old Brick Road for multi-use trail 7. Lehigh Trail U.S. 1 multi-use trail and pedestrian bridge 8. Intracoastal observation platform at Herschel King Park

The African American Entrepreneurs Association has announced a new location where entrepreneurs can connect with the AAEA and minority business services.

The AAEA has partnered with the city of Palm Coast and will host clients at 160 Lake Ave., within Palm Coast City Hall. Previously, meetings could be held remotely in Flagler County or scheduled at either AAEA’s main office at 601 Innovation Way in Daytona Beach or at the Gainesville Technology Entrepreneurship Center at 2153 SE Hawthorne Road, Suite 101, in Gainesville.

This adds a third location for entrepreneurial growth and opens a new chapter of minority business support for entrepreneurs who will now be able to set mentoring and business growth meetings in Flagler County.

Leslie Giscombe, AAEA founder/CEO, longtime Palm Coast resident and entrepre-

neur, said seasoned entrepreneurs and budding business owners will now be able to have mentoring and business plan review and several other options to access capital. The AAEA is able to introduce micro-funding options and capital support to these oftenunderserved businesses.

“I think that the important thing is partnerships and sticking to your mission,” Giscombe said. “Because we’ve stuck to that, our partners are supporting those efforts.”

The AAEA met with Mayor David Alfin and Chief Community Development Officer Jason DeLorenzo, who helped spearhead the effort.

“Business and economic opportunity are not only a strategic priority for the city of Palm Coast, but they are essential to the future success of our community,” said Alfin.

“Leslie has a track record here locally in the community and brings with him a great experience from the region, as well. To help him build on that success here will benefit the residents of the city of Palm Coast is a great collaboration.”

“This is a great opportunity for the local entrepreneurs of Flagler County,” says Giscombe. “Plus, this is where the AAEC was founded in 2016. ... This is a benchmark of how much can be achieved if the

community comes together to support the growth of African American and minority businesses. I appreciate the willingness to not just talk about inclusion, but act upon it.

This is the first mayor that has bought into this vision of not just talking about inclusion, but making an effort and being intentional about how to do it.

He did it with the community in mind, knowing and looking at who our partners were, and what we have to offer. That’s the key thing.”

“Our Business Assistance Center has changed over the years, how it works, but we still have a pretty robust mentoring system, and this is just going to add to that mentoring and allow our new businesses to foster and our existing businesses to grow and continue to meet the workforce needs of the community,” said DeLorenzo.

Member services available at the new location include: Consultations Education & Mentoring Workshops Group Economics Micro-Financing Opportunities Business Plans/Marketing Plans Social Media Marketing For informaton about the AAEA, call 386-234-2014 or visit www.aaeassociation.org.

Daley and Lloyd receive scholarships in honor of Nehemiah Gilyard ‘The meaning of it is bigger than the amount,’ Jared ‘Bird’ Lloyd said.

“I’m going to hang (the display check) up in my dorm.

The meaning of it is bigger than the amount.”

JARED “BIRD” LLOYD

Jared “Bird” Lloyd is taking the giant display check he received from Nehemiah Gilyard’s family with him to Missouri State. Malik Daley said his $1,000 check from the Nehemiah Gilyard Scholarship Foundation is more meaningful than all the other college scholarships he’s earned.

The scholarships and the students’ high school graduations were a bittersweet reminder of the loss of their friend. Gilyard, a Flagler Palm Coast High School student, died in a single-car crash on County Road 302 on Feb. 14, 2021.

On May 28, the morning of FPC’s graduation, friends and football teammates visited his gravesite, wearing their caps and gowns.

“We wanted to pay our respects, because he should have been graduating with us,” Daley said.

Daley received the scholarship check during the graveside visit from Gilyard’s brothers, Malakai Grant and Eli Gilyard. Grant, a football player at Colorado State, made a special trip home to help deliver the

scholarships.

Lloyd, who transferred from FPC to Mainland High for his senior year, was surprised by an early-morning visit from the Gilyards at his home.

“My parents told me that there would be something meaningful and important happening,” Lloyd said.

Grant, Eli Gilyard, Nehemiah’s father Sim Gilyard and his wife Calandra Gilyard woke Lloyd up and presented him with the check.

Lloyd has a full football scholarship at Missouri State, but this scholarship was special because of who it represents, he said.

“I’m going to hang (the display check) up in my dorm,” Lloyd said.

“The meaning of it is bigger than the amount.”

Lloyd said the money will help pay for his summer rooming. He is

Juleen Daley said.

“He had spent time with Nehemiah earlier that day,” she said. “When Nehemiah passed, Malik made hundreds of keychains with Nehemiah’s picture in them to pass out.”

Daley said his grades suffered immediately after Nehemiah’s death, but he has learned to use the tragedy as motivation.

“I’ve learned how to deal with it,” he said. “When someone would ask me who I do it for, he’s definitely who I do it for.”

Daley, Jacob Abbas, Michael Crockett, Jeremiah Dye, Thomas Michael and Landon Gonzalez all wore their FPC caps and gowns the morning of their graduation when they visited Nehemiah’s grave.

Lloyd, who graduated four days earlier, wore his blue Mainland cap and gown.

“It was very special and kind of emotional as well,” Lloyd said. “We all kind of said something. I just said I’ll make him proud for both of us.”

As Juleen Daley watched her son graduate, she wished Nehemiah was there, but she knew he was in spirit.

“He has impacted all of these boys’ lives,” she said. “And he’s still here for them. Malik is going to college knowing that Nehemiah is going with him.”

scheduled to leave for school on June 13.

The Gilyards established the scholarship foundation after Nehemiah’s death when community members offered to donate for his funeral. The family decided instead to do something to honor Nehemiah by awarding an annual scholarship in his name to a student who shows exceptional leadership and commitment.

Last year, TyShawn Blount, who grew up playing Pop Warner football with Nehemiah, received a $2,000 scholarship. This year, Daley and Lloyd, teammates of Nehemiah’s on FPC’s football team, each received a $1,000 scholarship.

“I wasn’t really expecting it,” said Daley, who graduated magna cum laude with a 4.0 GPA and also with an associate degree from Daytona State College as a dual-enrolled student.

Daley has been accepted to Stetson where he has received $50,000 in scholarship funds, his mom, Juleen Daley, said. But he might attend the University of North Florida, where his sister is a student. Daley wants to major in criminal justice or political science with the goal of becoming an FBI agent.

Nehemiah’s passing has been tough on Daley and all his friends,

LETTERS How can we trust elections when partyswitchers play games?

Dear Editor: A letter in last week’s Observer made it quite clear why there are many who question the integrity of our election system. The writer was praising those (including himself) for temporarily switching political party affiliation to ensure that they could skew the outcome of their rival party’s selection. Afterward, they switch back to their true party of choice.

Of course, this is not illegal.

However, it makes me wonder when there are some who are gaming the system on a basic level, how are we to trust that there are not others that won’t partake in more advanced deceptions or manipulations?

JOHN SLATTERY Palm Coast

Switching parties to interfere is shameful Dear Editor: I read with amazement recently about two readers admitting (in letters to the editor) that they intentionally temporarily change their political registration from Democrat to Republican in order to “play” the system.

We know about unethical things occurred during the 2020 election, and many of us have lost trust in

our elections. To see statements like this blatantly describing the game they are playing to ensure their candidate wins is disgusting and only confirms the distrust so many people have in our elections.

As this may not be against any current election rule, it is something that should definitely be looked into. This is simply playing with the system and should not be allowed. As Americans, we should all stay in our lanes, put our best candidates out there and let the chips fall where they may. I believe this is being publicized to encourage other Democrats to do the same thing. Shameful!

KATHY ROBISON Palm Coast

It might not be illegal to switch, but it’s unethical Dear Editor: I am shocked, dismayed and disappointed at the actions taken

by John Brady and David Cox in their switching parties to vote in the upcoming primary election. There may be nothing illegal in what they did; however, I believe it to be grossly unethical. If Mr. Brady and Mr. Cox cannot achieve their goals through the support of their own political party, they should let well enough alone and allow the election system to work without their skewing the system by jumping from one party to another.

Mr. Cox goes on to list three events that greatly disturbed him, one of which is the Jan. 6 riot. I, too, was disturbed by all the events

I can only hope that as Mr. Cox and Mr. Brady witness the continuing collapse of our economic, social, legislative and legal systems they will realize that permanently changing their allegiance to the Republican Party not only is a good idea but also the “right” thing to do.

I hate the title of being a Democrat or a Republican. I am an American. Hence, I vote for the candidate whom I think can lead our county, state, country in the best possible manner. We have forgotten what is important. Vote for the candidate, not the party.

DOUGLASS WOOD Palm Coast

Is Palm Coast still a quiet, clean city?

Party-switching: typical Democratic behavior Dear Editor: I don’t mean to come off poorly, but this, in my humble opinion, is typical Democratic behavior. If you can’t win honestly, then cheat.

The voting rules were set up to allow the Republicans to vote for their candidate and for the Democratic to vote for their candidate.

This was all agreed upon by both parties, but when one party does not get their way, they start looking for ways to get around the rules.

While switching parties in not illegal, it lacks good ethics and morals.

Here is the problem. We are supposed to vote for the candidate, not the party. The solution is not to try to work around the system but to develop a candidate who is appealing to everyone — Democrat and Republican.

Some homes must be abandoned as shrubs are as high as the front windows, grass has seeded by not being cut, and trash cans, boxes, and recycled bins are lined across the driveways. We must turn around; we are lost. Beautiful Palm Coast is certainly not these neighborhoods.

Cousins flee Ukraine with their children, find refuge in Palm Coast Inna Kuzmenko, and her son, and Maryna Kurentsova, and her daughter, are now living with their uncle and his wife.

“The worst part was how we decided to leave.

We didn’t decide. We couldn’t return to our home because of the air attacks.

It wasn't planned.”

BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

On the first two nights of Russia’s air attack on Ukraine, Inna Kuzmenko and her son, Tymur, slept in the closet of their Kyiv apartment. It was the only room without a window.

But when two rockets destroyed an apartment building less than two miles away, they moved into an underground bomb shelter. The next day, they began their odyssey to the United States.

Inna’s cousin Maryna Kurentsova and her daughter, Mariia, had their own harrowing journey to the U.S. After making their way to Mexico, they were granted humanitarian parole. The four of them have been living with their uncle and his wife in Palm Coast for the past two months.

They have applied for temporary protective status. For now, they don’t have work authorization, and they don’t qualify for Medicaid or food assistance.

They are grateful for all the help they’ve received. Their uncle, Dmitriy Melnichuk, is sponsoring and supporting them. They also have a large, extended family and new friends in Palm Coast. On June 4, they all celebrated Mariia’s 11th birthday.

Mariia is attending Rymfire Elementary School. Tymur, 12, is a student at Buddy Taylor Middle School.

“We so appreciate all the people who have helped us here,” Inna Kuzmenko said, with her cousin, Vasil Dubovyk, translating. “Everyone from neighbors to the sheriff have helped us.”

Sheriff Rick Staly contacted the Bike Men of Flagler County, who provided four bicycles and safety

helmets to Inna Kuzmenko and Maryna Kurentsova and the children.

Flagler Palm Coast High School girls basketball coaches Anthony Wagner and Tommy Daily, who both teach at Buddy Taylor, provided Tymur with a scholarship to the team’s basketball camp.

“I like basketball,” Tymur said. “In Ukraine some teams didn’t want me, because I’m not tall and I don’t have skills, but now I have some skills.”

Tymur said life in America is like “one big movie.”

“Here, I feel good. I’m happy,” he said.

Tymur said he misses his father.

Men between the ages of 18 and 60 are not allowed to leave Ukraine in anticipation they might be called

to fight. Fathers with three or more children are excepted and can leave with their families.

Inna Kuzmenko and Maryna Kurentsova are both divorced, but they maintain good relationships with their ex-husbands.

Kuzmenko’s ex-husband, Sergii, drove Inna and Tymur to western Ukraine. They had nothing but documents and one backpack, Kuzmenko said.

“The worst part was how we decided to leave,” she said. “We didn’t decide. We couldn’t return to our home because of the air attacks.

It wasn’t planned.”

Inna Kuzmenko and Tymur drove through Slovakia, Germany and Austria. After three days, they stopped in

Switzerland, where they stayed for a few days with Tymur’s godmother, who was trying to move her parents out of Ukraine.

On social media, they learned about Ukrainians being allowed to enter the U.S. from Mexico under humanitarian parole status. Melnichuk bought tickets for them to Mexico. They flew from Zurich to Madrid, to Mexico City and finally to Matamoros, Mexico, which is across the border from Brownsville, Texas.

“The entire journey in air travel took 59 hours,” Inna Kuzmenko said.

“With the help from my cousin and his acquaintances in Mexico, we were met by a Mexican family at the Matamoros airport, and they led us to the border. At the checkpoint, we had a meeting with officers who asked what purpose we (had) in the United States, what our plans for staying were and whether we had relatives or friends who could support us.”

Maryna and Mariia Kurentsova had their own arduous journey. They fled

Kharkiv, which is about 300 miles east of Kyiv, after the Feb. 24 invasion. They stayed for a week with Maryna Kurentsova’s parents, who lived outside the city. After surviving a terrifying night of bombing in the basement, they crammed into an overcrowded train to Lviv, in western Ukraine, and then waited on line for 28 hours to take a bus into Poland.

Once in Poland, Kurentsova looked for a job and an apartment, but there were a lot of displaced Ukrainians also looking to start over. After 10 days, they went to stay with a cousin in Portugal. That’s when Inna Kuzmenko called. They made arrangements to meet in Mexico and traveled to the border together.

They don’t know how long they will be allowed to stay in the U.S. They don’t know how long the war will last. But they are grateful to be here.

“If we couldn’t come here, I don’t know where we would go or where we would stay,” Inna Kuzmenko said.

The Flagler Soccer 7v7 High School League opened its season June 3 with four boys games and two girls games at the Indian Trail Sports Complex.

The league allows high school players who aren’t busy with soccer clubs to play with their teammates over the summer.

“In 2018, I was playing in the Flagler Soccer Adult League, and a lot of high schoolers asked to play in the league,” said Ramtin Amiri, who is Flagler Palm Coast High School’s boys soccer coach.

Amiri organized the high school version of the adult 7 on 7 league under the Flagler Soccer organization, run by Gavin Ginnane.

“In 2018 we had 33 players. We’ve grown and grown since then,” Amiri said.

This season, there are over 100 players, with eight boys teams and four girls teams. High school teammates play together, but they wear different uniforms and go by different team names. Some of the teams have sponsors.

Amiri’s FPC players have formed two teams — Chenzo Web FC and Lotus Elite Care FC. The FPC girls wear black instead of Bulldog green and are known as the Dawgz. The Dawgz won their first game 8-2 against the Falcons, a team of Pedro Menendez players. The Ormond Sandcrabs, a group of Seabreeze players, also won, although they had

just five players.

Chenzo Web FC defeated the Old City Hooligans, a group of St. Augustine High School players, 5-2.

The games are played on a smaller field with 27-minute halves. Each team plays with six field players and a goalkeeper. The season runs through the summer.

“It’s a super, fast pace,” Amiri said.

“You’re on one side of the field and the next second you’re on the other side. You’re getting a lot of touches.”

Grandma sets strength records Kelly Schlobohm has been powerlifting for just three years and is the national record holder for her age.

Post your next Public or Legal notice in the Observer.

KELLY SCHLOBOHM

The Observer offers: going out,” Joe Schlobohm said.

At the meet, Kelly Schlobohm squatted 423.5 pounds, benched 242 pounds and dead-lifted 440 pounds for a total of 1,105 pounds. She competed against women of all ages and placed third.

“Only a small percentage of people in the world can lift three- and four-times their bodyweight,” Joe Schlobohm said.

Her DOTS score of 536.47 moved her up from fifth to fourth in the world. Her goal is to be No. 1.

The APF did not have records in Kelly’s age and weight class, so she set the standard. She did break a couple of Open Division records (all ages), and she is now on the cusp of breaking the world deadlift record of 446.5 pounds.

Schlobohm, who graduated from Flagler Palm Coast High School in 1988, played softball and ran track in high school. Her grandfather, George Clark, was a NASCAR driver who raced on the beach.

Her father, Eddie, was a racing official.

She said she will continue competing until she can’t do it anymore. “At this age I wonder, Why didn’t I do this before? I’m so good at this.”

ing, but that didn’t work out.

“We were getting our (butts) beat,” he said. “So I said, ‘I know powerlifting. Let’s try that. She literally started with (just) the bar.”

They crowded their garage with equipment. Then, during the COVID-19 shutdown in 2020, Just Train Fitness of Palm Coast loaned them some equipment. Suddenly, their garage wasn’t big enough, so they opened a private gym they call, “The Freak Show,” on North State Street in Bunnell. Kelly and Joe, and some of the Schlobohms’ friends, train there.

“It’s more of a social club,” she said.

All of the equipment is designed for powerlifting. Joe Schlobohm has re-engineered several pieces of equipment to focus on the sport’s three lifts — bench press, deadlift and squat.

Kelly Schlobohm competed in an American Powerlifting Federation meet over the Memorial Day weekend at the Perfect Storm Hardcore Gym in Holly Hill. It was an equipped meet for single-ply and multi-ply powerlifters.

Single-ply means lifters wear a suit with one layer of thick material.

Puzzle One Clue: L equals C

Kelly Schlobohm had been a distance runner for 30 years.

Now she’s a powerlifting grandma, one of the strongest women in the world, someone who competes and out-lifts women half her age.

Schlobohm, 51, is the national record holder in the Masters 2 age group (50-54) in the 148-pound weight class for single-ply equipment. She ranks fourth in the world among all powerlifting federations. And she ranks 28th in the U.S. and 180th in the world among women of all ages.

“It surprises me that I’m very competitive with 20-year-olds. That’s not too shabby for a grandmother of two,” Schlobohm said.

The Bunnell resident has been powerlifting for just three years. Before that she had been a distant runner for 30 years. When her husband, Joe Schlobohm, began training her in 2019, she weighed 115 pounds. Now, she weighs between 145 and 150. And she’s all muscle.

“I went from being a gazelle with long muscles to what I look like now with short muscles. It was quite a transformation,” she said.

Joe Schlobohm was a competitive powerlifter before having to give up competition for health reasons. He weighed as much as 327 pounds. He has trimmed down to 250. He and Kelly Schlobohm were looking for an activity they could do together. First, they tried box-
