Mayor Milissa Holland said she hoped the traffic flow would be better than the flow at the Island Walk Shopping Center, which she called “probably one of the most ridiculous I’ve ever been in, in my entire life, as far as traffic flow

and patterns, and just getting in and out of there.”

“To me it’s just not good enough to say we’re going to analyze it (traffic flow); we have to do a better job at that, because we can’t repeat that ever again,” she said, noting that the proposed shopping center’s position next to the high school and its student drivers makes traffic problems espe-

Palm Coast is annexing 90.7 acres of land off State Road 100 between Belle Terre Boulevard and Seminole Wood Boulevard in anticipation of the completion of the Grand Landings development, which already contains about 200 homes.

When it’s finished, the development could contain as many as 1,150 homes: In addition to approving the annexation of the 90.7 acres of land into the city during its May 21 meeting, the City Council also approved a modification enlarging the development from 774.4 acres to 893.6 acres, raising the capacity of the development by 401 homes.

A plot of vacant land at the intersection of Old Kings Road and Matanzas Woods Parkway will become part of a planned shopping center that could be as large as 150,000 square feet.

The Palm Coast City Council voted 4-0, with Councilman Eddie Branquinho absent, during its May 21 meeting to approve land use and zoning map amendments that would let the project move forward, switching the land use from greenbelt to retail on a 7.1-acre parcel and the zoning from a combination of general commercial, public and semipublic, and rural estates to retail on another, 29.61-acre parcel.

The shopping center, currently designated as the Matanzas Woods Retail Center in city documents, will be across Matanzas Woods Parkway from Matanzas High School and is expected to be anchored by a Publix Super

such as fire, water, sewer,” Administrative Services and Economic Development Director Beau Falgout said. “And in exchange for that, they’ll pay city taxes, impact fees, in order to do so.”

The City Council approved the annexation and zoning and land use map changes for the community 4-0.

County seeks new space (again) Sheriff’s Office’s staff was displaced from the Operations Center because of mold. The county bought another building — and that has mold as well.

Cameron wrote in his report to commissioners, was preparing notices about potential litigation to Universal; to the building’s former owners, the Darnell Group; and to real estate broker Margaret Sheehan-Jones, who’d brokered the Sears deal and also the sale to the county of the mold-affected former hospital building that became the Sheriff’s Operations Center.

County Commissioner Donald O’Brien released a short statement on Facebook: “I was frustrated to learn of the mold and water intrusion issues at the recently purchased Sears building,” he wrote. “I will make sure our county administrator pursues every avenue to recover costs from responsible parties to mitigate this building.”

JONATHAN SIMMONS NEWS EDITOR

County workers preparing the former Sears building for occupancy by Flagler County Sheriff’s Office employees — who’ve been displaced from their Operations Center for almost a year because of mold problems — found water pouring down the walls during a recent rainstorm. When they pulled out the sheetrock, it was blackened with mold.

“That puts us back at square one on all the space operational issues, between the Operations Center and the District Two operations office,” Sheriff Rick Staly said.

The county, which is legally obligated to provide facilities for its Sheriff’s Office, had hoped that the former Sears building on Palm Coast Parkway would solve one of those problems for the FCSO while somewhat alleviating the other.

Problem 1: Currently, the FCSO has its Palm Coast office in a rented space in City Marketplace. But the owner of the shopping center is raising the rent, prompting the FCSO to look for space elsewhere.

The county bought a former Wachovia Bank building, off Old Kings Road, with the intention of making that into the Palm Coast precinct office, and the FCSO told the owner of City Marketplace that the agency wouldn’t be renewing its lease. But then it turned out that the Wachovia building had serious structural issues, and the county couldn’t easily prepare it for occupation by the FCSO’s Palm Coast staff.

Meanwhile, the FCSO’s lease at City Marketplace ended Dec. 31, and it’s been renting on a monthto-month basis since.

Problem 2: The bulk of the FCSO’s staff operate out of Bunnell and have been displaced from the Sheriff’s Operations Center since last June, when the building was evacuated because of mold problems. The old building had initially been a hospital, then sat vacant for years before the county bought it and renovated it for the sheriff. Employees began getting sick, with more than 30 filing worker’s compensation claims before the evacuation. Now, they’re divided between the jail administrative building and the county courthouse, where they’re packed in “like sardines,” according to the sheriff, and are competing with county Clerk of Court Tom Bexley’s staff for space.

County Commissioners have a longterm solution for both of those problems: They’ve approved the construction of a large, permanent Palm Coast FCSO branch office on countyowned land next to the public library on Palm Coast Parkway.

It will replace the Palm Coast precinct office and also contain command staff who’d previously occupied the Operations Center.

But it will take a couple of years to build, so the county needed an

Water damage at the former Sears building has been deemed too serious for any county use .

interim solution. That was supposed to be the Sears building.

The county had initially bought it for $1.1 million for use as a Tax Collector’s Office branch location, then realized the Tax Collector had less need for it than the sheriff.

“While it was not a perfect solution for District 2 in the interim period, it was the best for the taxpayer at that time,” Staly said.

“Obviously, now we know that whole purchase was not a good purchase at the time by the thencounty administrator,” Craig Coffey, Jerry Cameron’s predecessor.

And now it won’t be occupied for any county use: The damage is too serious.

“There’s no way I’m going to let my employees go from one moldinfested building to another one,” Staly said. “It was the right decision by the county to thoroughly check that building, and certainly the right decision that the building is no longer suited for use.”

‘SIGNIFICANT WATER INTRUSION’

County Administrator Jerry Cameron was notified of the problem earlier this week, when employees shot a cell phone video of water streaming down an interior wall there during a rainstorm.

“I didn’t want to fall into the trap of determining if we were going to drill a hole in the wall,” he said. The county, before Cameron took over as administrator in February, had been through a months-long dispute about whether, where and how to open up the Operations Center to check for mold, before ultimately doing so and finding it. So, on May 15, Cameron ordered employees to remove sheetrock in the Sears building in three places.

“We … identified a place in the roof that had a hole that was pouring water down between the

walls,” Cameron said. “They actually had water running across the floor.”

Later that day, he notified the county’s five county commissioners, writing in his weekly situation awareness report, “This property was inspected prior to purchase by Universal Engineering and these deficiencies were not noted. Staff has concluded that this has been a long term problem which would have resulted in water running out onto the showroom floor during rain storm events.”

The rust showed that the damage wasn’t recent, he said in an interview. “We’re talking years.

You can track the path of the water from the defective gutter that’s had a hole that’s been previously patched.”

Universal Engineering Sciences is one of multiple companies with which the county has a “continuing service” contract.

That means the firm is “vetted and pre-approved for use when a need arises,” according to county Public Information Office Julie Murphy. It had also inspected the Sheriff’s Operations Center building on State Road 100, Cameron said.

Universal not only made no reference to water intrusion problems in its evaluation of the Sears building, Cameron said, “They sent a preliminary report to Tim Telfer (the county’s land manager) and, when he saw that it didn’t address the potential for water intrusion, he sent it back and said the potential for water intrusion had not been addressed.

They sent it back with a clean bill of health.”

The county is now preparing for litigation. “We’re no longer going to be in the business of letting taxpayers pick up the tab for some of these oversights,” Cameron said.

County Attorney Al Hadeed,

The Clerk of Court has previously resisted requests from the sheriff to cede more space in the courthouse. He’s said that doing so would impact his own operations, already hampered by the FCSO’s increased presence there.

But, O’Brien said, “The sheriff has to go somewhere. I know Mr. Cameron’s working on that, and still have hopes we can work something out with the clerk.”

Cameron and Staly had not approached Bexley since the latest revelations about the Sears building, but Cameron spoke to him several week ago.

“He said he’d made all the accommodations he was willing make,” Cameron said.

Might the Wachovia building, which the county had planned to sell, become an option again?

“We’re not taking anything off the table yet,” Cameron said.

Staly said the county is considering a range of options, but does need to consider the particular needs of a law enforcement building, because certain issues could affect the FCSO’s accreditation.

The city of Palm Coast has some space off Utility Drive, currently used for the city’s utility staff, that might be useable, he said.

“We looked at it today,” Staly said. “There are a lot of moving parts, a lot of dynamics for that to be a workable solution. … It is a ready-to-go building, except it’s not designed for a law enforcement building and it would disrupt some of the utility staff, and we would not be able to take the whole building because there have to be people working in there.”

If the FCSO does end up using it, he said, the building would house the FCSO’s current Palm Coast precinct staff, but not the staff members displaced from the Operations Center, so, “It doesn’t solve the courthouse issue.”

The county might also reconsider the Wachovia building, or look at rental space on northern Old Kings Road or in Town Center, he said.

“The question becomes, in my mind, which is the best deal for the taxpayers?” Staly said. “And ultimately, that’s a decision that the County Commission has to make.”

The County Commission will discuss possibilities during a commission meeting at 5 p.m.

May 20 at the Government Services Building on State Road 100.

COUNTY CONSIDERS LITIGATION Flagler County has notified the former owners of the Sears building on Palm Coast Parkway, as well as the real estate broker and inspector involved with the sale of that property, that the county is preparing to sue them due to water and mold damage to the building that was not disclosed before the sale.

The building, located at 4888 Palm Coast Parkway NW, had been slated to become the FCSO’s new Palm Coast precinct office, and would have also provided space for some employees who were evacuated from the Sheriff’s Operations Center on State Road 100 in June 2018 due to mold at that building. Currently, those displaced employees are divided between the jail administrative building and the county courthouse. The broker and inspection firm that handled the Sears building purchase had also handled the county’s purchase of the evacuated building that became the Operations Center on SR 100.

County employees discovered the damage at the Sears building on May 14 when they saw water pouring down an interior wall during a rainstorm.

The county considers the damage too extensive to remediate, and the sheriff has said he will not place his employees in the building.

County Attorney Al Hadeed sent letters to the former owner, broker and inspection company branch manager on May 16, notifying them that the county intends to pursue claims.

In a letter to Margaret Sheehan-Jones, the real estate broker who handled the sale, Hadeed noted the context of the county’s interest in the Sears building.

“The County does not know whether you knew of these conditions. If you did not, the County believes it was your duty under the circumstances to be aware of the suitability of the building for public governmental purposes,” Hadeed wrote.

Sheehan-Jones said she was unaware of the damage.

“When I visited the property with several representatives of the County prior to the sale of the Sears store, the store was still operating and the space was full of inventory,” she wrote in an email to the Palm Coast Observer. “I had no knowledge of any issues with water intrusion.”

It’s unanimous: The County Commission wants to allocate more space in the county courthouse to accommodate Flagler County Sheriff’s Office employees who’ve been displaced from their own facility in Bunnell since last June because of mold.

The FCSO employees have been divided between the jail administrative building and the courthouse ever since, but Sheriff Rick Staly has repeatedly said that his staff members don’t have enough space to operate.

The county is in the process of building a new, larger branch office for the sheriff in Palm Coast, which will contain both the current Palm Coast branch office staff as well as the most of the employees that currently operate out of the county-owned courthouse building in Bunnell. But the new building won’t be finished for about two years. (See the story on Page 3.)

Clerk of Court Tom Bexley has resisted suggestions to reallocate more space to the FCSO. He’s told the commission that the law enforcement agency’s increased presence in the courthouse building already impedes his own operations, and noted that the county is legally obligated to provide him, as a county constitutional officer, with adequate space to operate.

But the county has the same legal obligation to provide space to the sheriff, who is also a constitutional officer.

In a County Commission meeting May 20, commissioners ordered County Administrator Jerry Cameron to work out the courthouse issue to provide more space for the sheriff.

The commission’s decision followed a comment by resident Ed Fuller.

“I’ve sat here in numerous commission meetings and hearings, and am kind of dismayed on a lack of cooperation, if you will, from the clerk,” Fuller said. “I think he’s done the best he can and knows how to do, but this is an emergency situation, and under an emergency situation there ought to be cooperation, not bellicose statements, ‘It’s my territory, I’m not going to do this.’ He’s a good and honorable man, and he is defending, I believe properly, his operation. But there is an equally and just as disconcerting element to this, and that’s the sheriff’s operation. ... When it comes down to it, you own the building. Mr. Bexley is a tenant,

and so is the sheriff.”

Fuller suggested that the commission make a motion to direct Cameron to make a space studies plan that would reallocate space to the sheriff on the courthouse’s first floor — “with the consent of the clerk of courts, if possible, or, regrettably, without it.”

County Commissioner Donald O’Brien suggested that Cameron come back at a future meeting with some information for the commission: a proposal for which employees to place where, details on how much the reallocation would cost and how long it would take, and any legal ramifications.

Commissioner Greg Hansen suggested checking other opportunities, such as renting space.

But County Commissioner Joe Mullins didn’t think that was necessary.

“We’ve gone round and around with this,” Mullins said. “I think we don’t need to look at other options. ... I make a motion that we instruct the county manager to sit down and get this resolved, and get this space situation worked out for the interim time.”

Bexley, speaking after the vote, said he remains unwilling to cede space to the sheriff, though he is willing to continue the current arrangement as-is.

“The idea is not to fight, but to conscientiously oppose the movement that’s being made, and hopefully reason with the County Commission as to why this option is a bad one,” he said. “We’re in a terrible situation right now. I just want to be very clear about how we got here. ... It was the Board of County Commissioners that got us into this situation, and now it’s me and the sheriff that have to deal with it. ... And am I of the opinion that the board should have to go out and spend untold amounts of money (to rent for the sheriff)? ...

No, that’s why I have continually said that I will continue to operate in goodwill the way things are now.”

The County Commission also directed Cameron to let the sheriff lease an interim space for the FCSO’s branch office in Palm Coast: The county had hoped to place the Palm Coast branch office staff in the former Sears building to avoid a rent hike at the FCSO’s current branch office in City Marketplace, but county staff discovered mold in the Sears building last week.

“I’ll make that work,” Staly said.

“The end result is it’s going to save $78,000 per year to the taxpayer based on the current rent that the current landlord is charging.”

Plantation Bay to get new, $6 million water system

JONATHAN SIMMONS NEWS EDITOR

For much of the community’s history, Plantation Bay residents have dealt with discolored or bad tasting water. That era is coming to an end, with the county committing to building a new, $6 million reverse-osmosis water treatment plant to replace the current plant.

The county, in partnership with the city of Bunnell, acquired the ailing facility from developer Mori Hosseini in 2013 for $5.5 million — it had been appraised for $1 million in 2011 — then, in 2015, the county took it over entirely.

In a County Commission meeting May 20, the commission approved a $3.8 million bond to build the new plant, and a $6,093,000 bid for the work.

The community also has user fees and a $2 million loan to cover the work; the bond covers the shortfall between those funding sources and the project cost.

The bond, through Sterling National Bank, has a rate of 2.99% for 14.3 years. The construction will be performed by Sawcross Inc., based in Jacksonville.

It will be funded through rates, although those will not increase for Plantation Bay residents,

4 306579-1

according to county administrator Jerry Cameron.

“This project had been approved to move forward, and I halted it until I could make sure that we were going to be able to service the debt out of the existing income stream,” Cameron said.

Two commissioners expressed frustration over the county’s history with the utility.

“We paid $5 million too much to buy the system,” County Commissioner David Sullivan said.

“I feel bad that I’ve been put in a position again, now as a commissioner, to say because of the pressure to get this done, we’re faced with another situation where we’re going to spend a lot of money. ... The only reason I’m even thinking about approving this at this point is because we do have a new county administrator.”

County Commissioner Joe Mullins said he’s looked into different options, and the reverse osmosis option seems to be the best one.

“I do know we paid too much for it,” he said. “But we’re here today and we’ve got to get this resolved …. The residents that already are living there have been living with this for years. ... This system currently is the best option that I’ve seen out there, and it will solve the problem.”

The commission voted unanimously to approve the bond and the bid for the work.

PALM COAST

Are we forgetting patriotism?

MEMORIAL DAY CEREMONIES

Troubling trend: Numbers of people attending Memorial Day ceremonies appears to be dwindling.

JACK HOWELL CITY COUNCIL MEMBER

It started as Decoration Day, which began in the northern states as a day to honor the memory of those members of the armed forces who died in the service of our country.

The graves of the fallen were decorated each spring following the end of the Civil War. In 1966, Waterloo, New York, was declared as the official birthplace of Memorial Day by the federal government.

Next Monday, May 27, we will commemorate Memorial Day. For many in the nation, Memorial Day is the unofficial start of summer, the big sales that merchants are offering, picnics and other activities.

Few will attend Memorial Day ceremonies recognizing the loss of fallen service members who were protecting the freedoms we take, so often, for granted.

Is patriotism fading in our country? Has Memorial Day become just a day to party like the Fourth of July? Certainly, law enforcement will be busy looking for drunk drivers and investigating fatal accidents that will plague our highways during this three-day celebration period.

Growing up in a small New Jersey town provided many memories of Memorial Day ceremonies. The time frame was just after both World War II and the Korean War. The holiday was a big deal in my town! Just about everybody participated. There was a big parade through the town to our local cemetery. The local high school band provided the music; kids decorated their bikes with red, white, and blue crepe paper. The town fire trucks were all decorated with American flags as well as decorated floats from various civic groups. The graves of the fallen were adorned with American flags as well as a banner with

the emblem of the branch of service. It was quite a vision to behold.

It reminded me of the poem by the Canadian doctor Lt. Col. John McCrae, “In Flanders Field,” which describes the graves of the fallen marked by bright colors of the poppy flowers. We had learned about this moving and thought-provoking poem two weeks before Memorial Day activities. And, veteran groups would visit the school to encourage the spirit of patriotism!

In Flagler County, Memorial Day will have three ceremonies.

The kickoff will be in the city of Palm Coast followed by the Flagler County government and city of Flagler Beach ceremonies. Of course, citizens will be present to mark the observance.

The question will be how many citizens will turn out?

It seems to me that the numbers of folks attending these ceremonies are dwindling each year as well as the active membership in the various veteran organizations throughout the county. I have to ask myself, Is the dwindling membership in these organizations also a sign of future things to come? I look towards the veteran organizations to keep the spirit of patriotism alive in our communities. If it were not for the hard work these veteran groups perform, veteran benefits would also fade to be a thing of the past.

Today, Congress has fewer than 250 members with military experience and knowledge of the severity of combat action and subsequent traumatic consequences. Without our veteran advocates, fighting the battles on Capitol Hill, veteran and survivor benefits will become nothing but a memory.

The young men and women in today’s military need to stay engaged to protect current interests and request new legislation for medical issues that may present itself in the future.

So, our job when finishing our term of military duty is to continue to serve our brothers and sisters in uniform by staying involved and becoming active in a veteran group that will voice our opinion and concerns to legislatures on Capitol

Waltz served all over the world as a decorated Special Forces officer with multiple combat tours to Afghanistan and led the search for Bowe Berghdal. He was awarded four bronze stars including two for valor.

Flagler County’s first World War II hero – U.S. Marine Corps Private Joseph Brady Wadsworth – will be posthumously honored by historian Sisco Deen, U.S. Air Force captain, retired.

Hill. We owe it to them!

I think that former Fox News personality Maj. Pete Hegseth said it best when he stated, “Memorial Day isn’t just about honoring veterans; it’s honoring those who lost their lives.

Veterans had the fortune of coming home. For us, that’s a reminder of when we come home; we still have a respon-

sibility to serve. It’s a continuation of service that honors our country and those who fell defending it.”

Jack Howell represents District 2 on the Palm Coast City Council. He served 25 years of active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps, and is a combatwounded veteran who retired with the rank of colonel.

Flagler could benefit as state revises education funding formula

AdventHealth gets top grades for safety

United Way hires new president: Courtney Edgcomb Courtney Edgcomb has been hired as the new president of United Way of Volusia-Flagler Counties.

Having been with United Way for seven years, she is being promoted from vice president, in which role she has led the staff and Board of Directors in the evaluation and successful implementation of the nationally sanctioned Community Impact model, according to a press release.

“I’m really looking forward to the opportunity to bridge all of our partners and bring United Way into the forefront as a thought leader in our community,” she said in a phone call with the Port Orange Observer.

“If anyone has questions about work in the nonprofit or philanthropic arena in Volusia County, I want us to be their very first phone call.”

Edgcomb, of DeLand, successfully led the organization to a $2.2 million campaign last year.

Introducing Styletto Connect

AdventHealth hospitals in Flagler and Volusia counties — including Palm Coast and Daytona Beach — received an ‘A’ for safety from The Leapfrog Group’s spring 2019 Leapfrog Hospital Safety Grade, according to an AdventHealth press release.

Flagler Schools, which tends to lose out in the formula the state uses to allocate education dollars — sending more money to the state than it gets back — will get some additional money for its students this year.

The county is getting $707,789 in compression funding this year, and $200,000 for its Flagship programs.

The Adults with Disabilities program is also funded, at $535,892, consultants John and Bob Cerra, of the Cerra Consulting Group, told Flagler County School Board members during a legislative update at their regular workshop May 21.

The state is also planning to revise the formula known as the District Cost Differential, which dictates how much money school districts must send the state for education, and how much they get back. Historically, Flagler has been near the top in tax rate but near the bottom in allocation rate.

This year, the state budget directs that “the Office of Economic and Demographic Research shall develop a methodology for calculating each school district’s wage level index using appropriate county-level and occupational-level wage data. ... to identify the key factors that result in cost differences among counties and their relative magnitude,” according to the Cerra presentation. The office must submit a transition plan for the new formula by Oct. 1, 2019.

Buddy Taylor boys Sheriff honors Capt. face charges over Grady Prather Jr. stabbing at bus stop with Marine Unit A 15-year-old student from Buddy Taylor Middle School stabbed his 13-year-old cousin, a fellow Buddy Taylor student, in a fight after both boys departed a school bus on East Carter Road in Bunnell at 2:06 p.m. May 15, according to a Bunnell Police Department case report.

The school bus driver had let a group of children off the bus and pulled away when the children who were still on the bus began yelling that there was a fight, according to the report.

The driver could see the fight in her mirror but, she told police, couldn’t tell exactly what happened. Witnesses reported to 911 that the victim had blood on his back and was walking toward the ballfields near the the Carver Gym, according to county emergency dispatch notes. The older boy was seen getting into a gray Nissan and leaving the scene.

When Bunnell Police Department officers arrived, both boys were gone.

A bystander, a juvenile, told police that he was able to intervene in the fight and wrest the knife away from the 15-year-old, and that he tossed it into a ditch. That witness did not see the actual stabbing.

Officers found a small brown kitchen knife in a ditch at 205 E. Carter Road.

They found the 15-year-old at a house, and determined that the victim was his cousin.

Officers found the victim at a laundromat at 602 S. State St. He had a “small laceration on the rear right side of his neck,” and his white polo shirt was ripped, according to the case report.

The victim explained what happened but wouldn’t name any witnesses.

A parent or guardian of the younger boy did not want to pursue charges, telling officers that, because the two boys are cousins, “she will have both of (them) sit down and speak with her when they get home.”

But officers are still submitting charges for the fighting.

This week Sheriff Rick Staly hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony at the FCSO District 1 Office at 69 Mala Compra Road dedicating the newly renovated office in honor of Capt. Grady Prather Jr. One year ago, Staly announced that the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office would be re-launching a full-time Marine Unit in Prather’s honor, complete with land and water vehicles to patrol Flagler County’s 85 miles of water and 18 miles of ocean shoreline.

“Captain Prather was responsible for launching the full-time Marine Unit in modern history and was discontinued as a full-time unit after he retired, so it is fitting that his name be on the walls of the District Office,” Staly said.

Prather was a 33-year veteran of the FCSO who led the Marine Unit, which he also created. He retired on Jan. 31, 2008, and died Nov. 17, 2009.

Additionally, Staly unveiled the new COP Volunteer Marine Patrol and the new Dive Team Pontoon style boat that will further aid in FCSO’s mission to protect our waterways.

Prather’s wife, Caryn, and son, Jason Prather, who is a Flagler County Deputy along with Jason’s recently added son, Grady James Prather III, and many more were in attendance.

“In many regards, the boat that the Dive Team was using before was not functional. So, we decided to make it into a patrol boat for COPs who wish to help aid in our efforts to keep our waterways safe,” Staly said. “We purchased a refurbished pontoon boat for the Dive Team that will serve as a much more appropriate vessel for them when they are called into action. I am very happy to say we now truly have a fully functional and fully operational Marine Unit.”

The FCSO’S summer boating safety initiative starts Memorial Day Weekend. During this time, FCSO will have an increased presence on the waterways to make sure that everyone operating a boat is following the proper safety guidelines.

A LOOK BACK 2019 HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL SEASON RAY BOONE SPORTS EDITOR

BULLDOGS COACH STEPS DOWN AFTER NINE SEASONS

Flagler Palm Coast baseball coach Jordan Butler had high expectations entering his ninth season with the team. They returned experienced players and leaders, and the Bulldogs had a shot at a district championship.

But just before the start of the 2019 regular season, junior pitcher Riley Clymer had Tommy John surgery. He was out for the year.

And one day, while working on his hitting during batting practice, senior Charlie Alfano felt soreness in his right hand — his throwing hand. He was diagnosed with a bone bruise. One of the Bulldogs’ fastest, grittiest players was held out for a large portion of the year and didn’t make an appearance until midway through the season.

As a result, the Bulldogs got off to a rocky start, losing nine of their first 12 games.

“He was our glue guy. When he was on the field, everybody else played better,” Butler said of Alfano. “It was a struggle without him.”

After a 6-1 win over rival Matanzas on March 22, the Bulldogs started a slow climb up the win column. Things picked up when Alfano returned prior to spring break. The Bulldogs beat Seabreeze, Taylor, Bartram Trail, DeLand and Oviedo.

“The team chemistry wasn’t really there at the beginning,” senior shortstop D’Emiliano Whiters said. “But we got to know each other more. We progressed more as a team at the end of the season.”

Then came the Spruce Creek game on April 24, a game that was neck-and-neck for the first three innings — until Alfano re-injured his hand, and the Bulldogs lost 11-1.

FPC concluded the season with an early exit in the district tournament and a 10-16 record.

Matanzas’ Erik Libby swings at a pitch in a game against St. Augustine during the regular season.

In addition, Butler, who has coached since 2004 and who has been at FPC since 2011, stepped down as the team’s head coach.

He accepted an offer to be the director of the Flagler Youth Center and the George Washington Carver Community Center in January. He knew this season was going to be his last with the Bulldogs.

“The night that I told them I was resigning, I couldn’t even get through it. I was a glass case of emotion,” he said. “I love these kids. I love the program, and it’s really hard to walk away from. But at the end of the day, I had to make that decision.”

He added: “It feels like yesterday is the first time I stepped on this campus. This community has been very good to me and my family.”

Six players on the roster began and ended their high school careers under Butler.

“It was a pleasure for me. He was there for me all the time,” centerfielder Jace Wilson said. “It being his last ride and my last ride, it just felt a little more special.”

PIRATES WILL RETURN EXPERIENCE NEXT SEASON

When Matanzas’ baseball team took to the field in 2019, there was a lot more youth than in seasons past. Senior Jason Guilbe, junior

Joseph Alvarado and junior Will Towles were the Pirates’ only returning starters from last season, according to Pirates head coach James Perry.

The Pirates’ No. 1, No. 2, No. 3 and No. 4 hitters from a season ago are all on college rosters now.

Guys lower in the batting order last season were suddenly thrust into the top of the order and were put into pressure situations.

The Pirates struggled as a result.

“Part of the growing process was learning how to fill those rolls,” Perry said. “It created some growing pains for us.”

Will Towles, who batted in the No. 8 and No. 9 spots last year, was predominantly the team’s 3-hole hitter this season.

“We were seeing more at-bats, more off-speed pitches, more competitive pitches overall, so we had to adjust to that,” he said.

Although the Pirates finished the season with a 9-15 record, they won five of their last eight games, including a 14-2 win over Seabreeze in the first round of the district tournament on May 6. It was the Pirates’ first tournament win in three years.

“Now some of those younger guys have experience,” Perry said. “Now they can take on more of a leadership role on and off the field.”

Cancer won’t win

Palm Coast resident Kelsey Banks is seven years cancer-free.

Cancer survivors celebrated at Relay for Life PAIGE WILSON COMMUNITY EDITOR

One by one, the cancer survivors at Flagler County’s annual Relay for Life lined up to state their name, the type of cancer they had and how long they’ve been cancer-free. Some said they were still fighting, while others have been in remission for decades.

Gary Perkins, the Relay for Life of Flagler County event organizer, said $2,777 was raised at the event on Saturday, May 18, but $30,000 overall was raised in the last seven months locally to benefit the American Cancer Society. “Big Love for KB” was the top fundraising team, he said. There were 152 registered participants and many who showed up to support the cause.

“We help the American Cancer Society touch the lives of so many: those who are currently battling cancer, those who may face a diagnosis in the future and those who may avoid a diagnosis all together,” Perkins said. “Today, we are here to celebrate all those who have battled cancer: our survivors in the purple shirts.”

As the line of purple shirts took their first lap around the lake at

Central Park in Town Center, onlookers applauded and gave the survivors high-fives.

“Each and every one of you is here because you feel compelled to make a difference, and together, we can,” Perkins said.

Guest speaker Mike Rogers — a Titusville resident, cancer survivor and lifelong skateboarder — founded Grind for Life in 2003 to provide financial assistance to cancer patients and their families when traveling long distances to doctors and hospitals, like he had to for treatment.

“To be here speaking to you right now is a modern day miracle of medicine,” Rogers said. “1978 I was first diagnosed when I was 12 years old, was treated down in Miami with a triple therapy radiation — 18 rounds of chemotherapy. My treatment plan was the same as an adult. ... I survived it. Twenty-five years later, it came back in my nasal cavity.

Modern day miracle of medicine happened again. ... All of you guys are out here doing a great thing today by helping other people get to their cancer treatments.”

Palm Coast Mayor Milissa Holland said the dedication and courage of the survivors and event participants was uplifting to her.

“Your participation in this event makes this not only a local, but also a global impact on can-

cer,” Holland said. “Thanks to your generous donations and volunteer hours. You’re assisting in finding a cure to save lives all across the world.”

Flagler County Commissioner Donald O’Brien asked those present to remember the fallen and celebrate the caregivers — “the unsung heroes in the battle against cancer,” he said.

Flagler County Sheriff Rick Staly voiced his connection to the cause, as FCSO has a number of employees who are fighting cancer, he said.

“So, as you walk around this park, I would ask that you say a silent prayer for my employees that are currently fighting this terrible disease,” Staly said. “And thank you for raising money, so that some day we will have a cure for all of cancer.”

Palm Coast residents Margherita Perry, Beth Tardiff and Deborah Molo.

The annual fundraiser raised $1,900 for Christmas with a Deputy

Santa Claus made an appearance.

PAIGE WILSON COMMUNITY EDITOR

About 90 people gathered at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 8696 for an evening of fun and fundraising on Saturday, May 18, at “Denim and Diamonds.”

The annual fundraiser hosted by Friends of Flagler raised $1,900, which is $100 more than last year, said Friends of Flagler Chair Roe Barletta. The fundraiser included donations from the Blue Knights Florida Chapter 22 and the Italian American Social Club of Palm Coast. The money will benefit Christmas with a Deputy, an event going into its 12th year that arranges for local kids to go Christmas shopping with law enforcement.

“Larry Jones started this 12 years ago at his kitchen table,” Christmas with a Deputy President Louis Miceli said. “Him and his wife were sitting down having a conversation. He wanted to help the kids in the community, and they had a few extra bucks come at the end of the year before the holidays. He told his wife this is what he wanted to do, and they started out very small with 10 or 12 kids. ... Last year, we took 185

HOME OF THE

kids shopping, and that’s thanks to Friends of Flagler who always does this event for us and contributes to our cause. They’ve been behind us for the last five or six years now.”

Barletta said fundraising for this cause makes her feel the Christmas spirit.

“I went one year and saw all the police cars and all the kids, and if that doesn’t bring a tear to your eye and humble you and make you want to do it again. ... It’s just, how could you not want to make a kid smile at Christmas?” Barletta said.

The festivities at Denim and Diamonds include an auction, entertainment by Tim Rippey, dinner, an appearance from Santa Claus — and even a “jail” that assigned deputies can throw guests in for all sorts of wacky rules they determine — all in the name of fundraising, Barletta said.

“In order to get bailed out of the jail, it costs you $1, and you can’t

be bailed out by the person who put you in,” she said. “You make a lot of friends.”

Miceli said the fundraiser is all about the kids Christmas with a Deputy will make smile.

“We do this every year just to try to make sure that everybody has a special Christmas and there’s always something under the tree,” Miceli said. “What we do is we give each child $150 for them to be able to go shopping, not only for themselves, but they can use it for their family, their moms, their dads, their sisters and brothers; and we encourage that.”

RISE AGAINST HUNGER Students and locals packaged 14,040 meals PAIGE WILSON COMMUNITY EDITOR

Matanzas High School senior Caleb Krassner said he knows what it feels like to go hungry.

He’s in a healthier place now, but he said he previously restricted food because of self-esteem issues. The experience helped him empathize with the mission behind the school’s annual Rise Against Hunger event, where students and community members came together to package over 14,000 meals for the hungry around the world.

“I’ve gone through periods of my life where I’ve almost starved

myself — just because I’ve never felt body confident,” Krassner said. “And I know that’s completely different than what people are going through because they don’t have access to food. But I do share that understanding of what hunger actually feels like, and it’s not fun. It makes you feel sick to your stomach; you feel miserable and unable to do anything.” He said he wouldn’t want anyone to feel that way if it can be helped.

Krassner, MHS Interact Club president, was one of over 70 volunteers who joined together in the MHS cafeteria the afternoon of Saturday, May 18, to package meals for Rise Against Hunger, an international nonprofit that coordinates food packaging and deliveries to those in need.

“Rise Against Hunger is really

important to me because I’m carrying on a tradition from last year’s president, Erin,” Krassner said. “She initiated this event at our high school, and I wanted to follow in her footsteps.”

Interact Club sponsor Thomas De Ceglie couldn’t be more proud of his students.

“I joke with them and let them know that I have the best job in the world because I get to stay in high school the rest of my life, whereas they get to go out in the world and do things,” De Ceglie said. “But before they go out into the world, they get to do something for the world right now. It’s fantastic.

I love watching them grow and become leaders. Even though I’m here, they’re all taking the initiative and they’re doing this.”

De Ceglie said there were about 20 more volunteers this year than at last year’s event. It’s a community effort, he said, as volunteers included members of the MHS Interact Club, Leo Club and Key Club, the Flagler Palm Coast High School Interact Club, Habitat for Humanity members, Old Kings Elementary School Early Act students and Home Depot employees.

“This event is wholesome, and it makes you feel warm inside that you’re helping others,” Krassner said.

Early Act OKES third-grader Penelope McDonald said she’s happy to help people.

“We’re trying to help save the world and stop world hunger,” she said.

The inaugural One Love Tennis Weekend in Palm Coast was run by women — for women.

The women’s doubles tennis tournament and ball was held the weekend of May 16-19 at the Hammock Beach Resort, to benefit Family Life Center, a nonprofit that works to end domestic violence and sexual abuse in Flagler County by providing support services to individuals and families.

The idea for this tennis weekend began in November 2018 when a group of local tennis friends with a desire to help Family Life Center came together to make a difference. The One Love team includes Kerry Cooke, Julie Harkins, Julie Silva, Kelly Garrison, Kelly Scully, Stacey Effner and Palm Coast Mayor Milissa Holland. The tennis tournament director was Gene Paul Lascano. One Love is a committee of FLC. The tournament and ball raised $37,000 — far exceeding One Love’s initial goal of $20,000.

“A lot of their funding is grantbased, so that has to go to specific services,” One Love chair member

Kelly Scully, Kelly Garrison, Stacey Effner, Trish Giaccone, Mayor Milissa Holland and Kerry Cooke.

Kelly Scully said about FLC. “This money will be discretionary, so what Family Life Center needs but can’t cover with grants.”

There were 80 tournament players and over 150 people at the ball, Scully said.

Family Life Center CEO Trish Giaccone said she’s excited the fundraiser exceeded expectations.

“I love women events,” Giaccone said. “And I think the fact that there were women who did this, and there were so many women involved, and it was as successful as it was — to me that’s huge.”

One Love chair member Kerry Cooke got emotional when the check for $37,000 was revealed and presented to FLC on Tuesday, May 21. She said it’s been a dream in the making for her for a while now.

“We always go away to different tennis tournaments to fight for different causes, but we thought, ‘Why not bring it here?’” Cooke said.

Next year, One Love is hoping to accommodate even more players.
