The pandemic — beyond — in Flagler County Year in Review: the 10 most impactful storylines of 2020 in the Palm Coast Observer.

BRIAN MCMILLAN EXECUTIVE EDITOR

We made it! 2020 is in the rearview. Here is what I’ll remember most from the pages of the Palm Coast Observer this year: 1. CORONAVIRUS INVADES FLAGLER COUNTY

Like every community, we have been hit hard by the pandemic.

Unemployment, after being in the 4% range, skyrocketed to more than 13% temporarily, as businesses shut down. Despite strong warnings from the local health department, many residents and some elected officials considered mask mandates too much of a violation of individual liberties, and Flagler County had no mandate, while Palm Coast passed one with no enforcement.

Still, Flagler County has done very well, relatively speaking, with a low number of cases. As of Dec. 22, Flagler had 3,062 cases per 100,000 residents, which was the lowest of any county in the state.

(Florida’s average was 5,789 per 100,000 residents.) How

January

did that happen? According to Medical Director Stephen Bickel, it’s because we’re testing so many people.

Ultimately the testing and subsequent contact tracing has likely saved many lives in our community. Thanks to Health Officer Bob Snyder, Flagler County Emergency Chief Jonathan Lord and other collaborative leaders from AdventHealth, Daytona State College and Flagler Volunteer Services, testing has been easily available here, and that helps to catch other cases before they can spread.

That didn’t stop a superspreader at the Social Club of Palm Coast, unfortunately.

And, we still have had 46 people die from the virus overall — including beloved Flagler Palm Coast High School Principal James “Tom” Russell.

But overall, you just have to look at the state’s heat map to know that we are very blessed in Flagler County.

2. MEXNEXUS AND JU

Town Center, which already filled its hundreds of new apartments this year, is getting another electric jolt: two higher-education institutions.

The University of North Florida’s MedNexus got state funding and will help turn Town Center into a regional hub of health care training.

Then, Jacksonville University, thanks to $2.5 million from the

city of Palm Coast, announced plans to add a regional campus in Town Center, the first of its kind for JU. These arrivals could have the biggest impact here since Palm Coast was founded by ITT. 3. HOLLAND WINS IN HEATED CAMPAIGN YEAR

In a presidential election year rife with division and rancor, local politics also got nasty at times. Mayor Milissa Holland was already heavily criticized by former staff members who said her private employment interests were inappropriately guiding the direction of city staff, culminating in a provocative press conference from one of her political challengers.

After the primary, the last challenger standing was Alan Lowe, who, as it turned out, once renounced his U.S. citizenship and had never voted until he was on the ballot this year. Holland, meanwhile, got the Observer’s endorsement from Publisher John Walsh because of her extraordinary ability to coordinate many partnerships, public and private, into a win for the city: MexNexus. Holland won the election and will be the mayor for four more years.

This year also saw Andy Dance elected to the Flagler County Commission after serving many years on the School Board. Cheryl Massaro and Jill Woolbright are newcomers on the School Board.

The City Council also has two newcomers: Ed Danko and Victor Barbosa.

4. GRADUATION AT THE SPEEDWAY

I typically don’t go to high school graduations each year, but I couldn’t resist this one.

Thousands of cars lined up at the Daytona International Speedway for both the Matanzas and FPC ceremonies, which otherwise would have been canceled due to the pandemic.

What a day! What could have been a void for the Class of 2020 and their families became a highlight.

5. SCHOOLS PAY TRIBUTE TO RUSSELL

James “Tom” Russell was the principal at FPC for only a year, but he left a legacy. One student told me, “He made you feel important.” I have thought a lot about that since, and he has inspired me to try to help others feel important also. I’m grateful for his example and hope that his legacy will live on through others.

6. DUNE HOLDOUTS GET $40,000 FROM GOFUNDME

About 15 people refused to give Flagler County access to their properties on the beach so that the Army Corps of Engineers could restore the dunes that protect all of us. I don’t get it.

But fortunately, Carla Cline and many others took action and raised money to pay those holdouts and keep the project alive. It’s one of the greatest examples of a community coming together that I can recall.

7. FEED PALM COAST RAISES $100,000

Along the same lines as No. 6, the city of Palm Coast started a fundraising effort that exceeded everyone’s expectations, finally reaching $100,000.

Think of that impact!

8. PEACEFUL MARCHES

The United States suffered throughout the summer, as many minorities felt powerless. We are blessed to have a conscientious Sheriff’s Office, and it was heartening to see our deputies march alongside demonstrators in our community. The chant was “No justice, no peace.” Hopefully we can continue to work together for both.

9. MICAYLA CRONK WINS TWO TITLES

Two more state titles for Micayla Cronk! The FPC senior is one of the greatest athletes ever to represent our community, as she was the fastest female swimmer in the state yet again.

10. GENDER IDENTITY PROTECTIONS

To some, it was just words. To others, it was an existential victory. The School Board, after a year of resisting, added “gender identity” to the list of protected classes in the nondiscrimination policy. No matter how you feel about gender identity, I hope we can all agree that no one should be bullied.

My definition of a partner part·ner ‘ \ ‘pärt-n?r 1: a

member of a partnership especially in a business 2: a person with whom one shares an intimate relationship : one member of a couple

When you look up the word “Partner”, this is what Merriam-Webster has to say. I will say, that I have found both of these definitions in my husband, Brady.

If you’ve been reading for some time, you know we run a business together in Palm Coast (which gives us the blessing of spending A LOT of time together). Being my husband, the second definition comes naturally as he is the other half of this couple. When I think about the word partnership, When I think of the word partner, especially in the context of 2020, it to me means so much than just a membership of a business and intimacy. It means working together when things get hard. It means loving each other when sometimes we may not deserve it. It means showing up and standing up when your other half needs you.

I read a story a few years back about a husband and wife. The wife was going through some-

December

thing challenging and was pulling back from her spouse and acting out with negativity. The husband had two choices: respond and meet his wife with equal or worse negative energy or to dig deep and love her through it. Day by day he made the choice to respond with love. He started by leaving notes around the house for her to find. He sent flowers to her work for no reason. He would wake up early and make her breakfast in bed. And day by day, the wife started to change.

While he was loving her through it, she began to love herself again.

And as she loved herself, their entire world changed.

Today Brady and I celebrate 4 years of wedded bliss. Even though it can be hard, we have chosen to love ourselves through those tough times. This choice has helped us learn many lessons about each other and ourselves, which has allowed us to grow individually as well. Each day as we continue to grow as individuals our relationship and love grows stronger with it. I am forever grateful that this man chose me to build a life with.

Happy anniversary, Brady!

Thank you for being the ultimate definition of a partner in business, in marriage, and in life!
