Pandemic doesn't stop the hammering for Habitat for Humanity By Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
started this house in January, that it is almost finished. We still have deadlines to meet. By the end of July, we want to get the new homeowner in there. Her lease is up. So, these guys have kept this moving and quite frankly, if you ask them, this is their morning cup of coffee. This is what they do. They visit with buddies but they love building, “said Moreno.
up with a few of the core group members who were out building a home in the 1600 block of North Bowie Street. The group was out back tackliong a storage building and putting in some of the finishing details inside the home.
(Seguin) -- Essential employees were not the only ones keeping busy throughtout this COVID-19 pandemic. From the very beginning, a group of essential volunteers has also been working non-stop. Making their way to the job site every Thursday and Saturday has been an elite core of volunteers Among them was Garry Miller. Miller says for him, working with Guadalupe Valley Habitat for Humanity. Just this past Thursday, The Seguin Daily News caught on homes for others has been a 13-year commitment.
“I do it for a couple of reasons. The main one is more spiritual that I believe that faith without good works is dead so I believe you have to put good works together with your faith and this is just a great way to do it. I love working with families. It’s very very special to start off with a family who has no idea at all what building a house is about and then at the end of it, they have so much confidence. They are more independent, more capable of attacking anything that comes their way so it’s a wonderful process,” said Miller.
Thanks to this group of about nine individuals, one Seguin family will realize its dream of home ownership. While all other things are being cancelled or postponed, this group is working non-stop to ensure that the local chapter’s next house is ready for move-in next month. Carlos Moreno, build committee chair and board member, says these men are crucial to the local Habitat organization. He says when you have the goal of building three to five houses a year, it is this group that is going to help make that happen.
Mark Williams, who is usually the electrician in charge, says other than have to wear a face mask, he never thought too much about why the work of Habitat should come to a halt during this pandemic.
“Our core volunteers, they keep things moving. They order the materials. They install siding. They know how to build homes. We frame walls, paint and do all those things but the core guys during this whole COVID issue since March have single handedly kept this thing moving because we weren’t able to have big volunteer groups. Normally, we have church build days. CMC comes out and helps – just different groups on different times of the month and we just want to highlight those guys. Every Thursday, they are here and every Saturday they are working. You can tell that since we
“The guys that I work with on Thursdays, we are what they call the regulars and we’ve become almost like a family. We work at a distance from each other. I just didn’t see any reason not to keep coming and fortunately, the Habitat Board let us do that,” said Williams. See HABITAT, page 2

Local volunteers essential in serving others Robin Roark says his contribution is all about doing his part in the community.
"It’s an opportunity to give back to the community for me so I just enjoy doing it and helping out with the community,” said Roark. Barry Jankord, who has lived in Seguin for the last four years, says he is thankful to have been introduced to the nonprofit organization. He says he knows first hand how programs such as Habitat can be life changing for families. “I’m one of the younger guys here. I work as an adjunct professor part-time and teaching graduate level classes for the University of Wyoming still but this is so fulfilling from a hands on perspective. I did so much stuff in my prior career working with families. I worked a lot with Title 1 Schools, Title 3 Schools – families that English was a second language for them and regardless of who we are working with, it is such a joyful experience,” said Jankord. In the end, Pete Edquist says no matter what’s going on in the world, the needs of people just don’t go away.
HABITAT, continued from page 1
“I think part of living in a community is giving everything back to the community that you can and I’m just honored to be part of this program. It’s a wonderful thing for people in need and it’s a good way for me to spend my volunteered hours. The need doesn’t go away. The people need the housing and the project needs to continue. We’ve got ongoing work to do and people to serve. Can’t let a little virus get in the way of doing that,” said Edquist.
Bill Buss says it’s the families and the other members of the core group that help him continue to come back week after week.
Other elite members of Habitat’s core group include, Frank Rangel, Brian Riggs and Mark Stuart.
“Just our camaraderie and the fact that we are united to a common cause and the homeowners are such a blessing to us. It’s just a good thing to do,” said Buss.
Until things return to normal, Habitat board members say they are thankful to again have such a committed group of individuals who for years have dedicated their time
and energy to others. Habitat of Humanity is a Christian organization that works to build simple, decent and affordable homes to low income families. Those homes are then sold to them through no interest loans. The local chapter recently announced the recipients of its latest homes. This latest batch of builds for the group will be homes number 30 to 33.

Every year, a Seguin landmark is featured on the mug, and the Sip 'n Stroll Committee selected the 1889 Victorian style Guadalupe County Courthouse to be this year's featured landmark. “This will be the 10th anniversary
of Sip 'n Stroll, and the committee really wanted to feature a special landmark for the big milestone, and they decided to recognize the former courthouse since so many people do not know about that part of our history,” said Kyle Kramm, City of Seguin's Main Street & CVB Director, “The Victorian Courthouse designed by Alfred Giles and built in 1889 was made of stone and featured a tower and balconies. That courthouse would be replaced in the 1930's by the art deco courthouse that is in the square today.”

(New York) -- The U.S. Tennis Association intends to hold the U.S. Open in New York starting in August without spectators, if it gets governmental support - and a formal announcement could come this week. The professional tennis tours have been suspended since March because of the coronavirus pandemic. The French Open was postponed from May to September and Wimbledon canceled altogether for the first time in 75 years. The U.S. Open, if played, would be the second Grand Slam tournament of the year, following the Australian Open in January. The operational plan to hold the event amid concerns about the coronavirus includes no spectators, limited player entourages, centralized housing, increased cleaning at the tournament grounds in Flushing Meadows and testing for COVID-19.
Gunslingers will host tryouts in August for players interested in seeing if they can make the team. Participation requires preregistering, plus a $100 fee payable in advance. More details are available on the teams website sanantoniogunslingers.com.
Tour at Colonial will be a familiar sound for the first major of the year. The PGA of America has submitted plans to hold the PGA Championship at Harding Park without spectators, and the San Francisco Chronicle reports public health officials have approved it. An announcement was pending approval by San Francisco officials and was expected as early as Tuesday.

(Oklahoma City) AP -- Oklahoma State running back Chuba Hubbard and coach Mike Gundy appear to have ironed out their differences for now. Hubbard suggested Monday he may boycott the program after Gundy was photographed wearing a T-shirt promoting the One America News Network, a far-right news channel that has been praised by President Donald Trump. Gundy is seen in a photograph on Twitter wearing the shirt with the letters OAN. In a tweet responding to the photo, Hubbard said: ''I will not stand for this. This is completely insensitive to everything going on in society, and it's unacceptable. I will not be doing anything with Oklahoma State until things CHANGE.'' Gundy's comments led the school's president and athletic director to issue statements of concern and support.

NFL commissioner Goodell encourages team to sign Kaepernick (undated) -- Roger Goodell would like to see Colin Kaepernick back in the NFL this season. The NFL commissioner said during ESPN's ''The Return of Sports'' special on Monday that he is encouraging teams to sign the 32-year old quarterback, who hasn't played the past three seasons. Kaepernick was with the San Francisco 49ers in 2016 when he kneeled during the national anthem to protest racial injustice.
understanding all the frustration, fear and sadness. When the video came out on Thursday it was very powerful. It was appropriate for me to respond,'' Goodell said. ''We should have listened to our players earlier including Colin Kaepernick, Eric Reid, Kenny Stills, Malcolm Jenkins and so many people really brought these issues to light.'' Atanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan said
everybody's committed to making longterm, sustainable change,'' Goodell said. ''If his efforts are not on the field but continuing to work in this space, we welcome him to that table and to help us, guide us, help us make better decisions about the kinds of things that need to be done in the communities.'' NBA commissioner Adam Silver said when the league gathers at the Disney campus it
''If he wants to resume his career in the NFL, then obviously it's gonna take a team to make that decision. I welcome that, support a club making that decision and encourage them to do that,'' Goodell said during his interview with ESPN's Mike Greenberg.
The NFL released a video on June 5 in which Goodell apologized for the league for not doing a good job of listening to concerns by players on racial inequality. Goodell though was roundly criticized for the apology not mentioning Kaepernick.
Another interesting point in what Silver said was the acknowledgement that some players may choose not to go to the ESPN Wide World of Sports complex for the restart of the season. A group of players, led by Kyrie Irving, has made it clear in recent days that they want their colleagues to think about the ramifications of playing at a time of racial and social unrest. Portland guard Damian Lillard has been part of a protest and said he hopes that people realize ''that the black community has had enough'' when it comes to injustice. But he also said he plans to play, even though he expressed some reservations about how safe it will be from a health perspective.
Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said last week that he received a call from another team about Kaepernick. Carroll and the Seahawks brought in Kaepernick for a workout in 2017 and had another planned in 2018 before it was canceled. Goodell set up a tryout for Kaepernick in Atlanta last year for scouts of all 32 teams to attend, but it unraveled at the last moment due to lack of media access and what Kaepernick's representatives saw as an unusual liability waiver. Instead of the workout taking place at the Falcons' training complex, Kaepernick conducted an impromptu session at a high school in front of media and scouts from eight teams.
league, what are those things we can be doing?''
''This is what we do. This is our job,'' Lillard said. ''And this is how we take care of our families. And this is my way of providing for communities and impacting my community. So to play the game I love, to resume the season, I guess it's a risk I'm willing to take.''
Goodell's video was a great step in the right direction. ''We all need to be on the same page and address some of the uncomfortable things that need addressed,'' he said.
The video came out a day after many players released a video criticizing the league for not condemning racism following the May 25 death of George Floyd.
Goodell did not answer how the league would respond if President Donald Trump continued to criticize them if players kneeled for the National Anthem. Goodell also said that he wants to include Kaepernick's voice on how the league should approach social issues.
''We had spent time prior to that
''I hope we're at a point now where
would provide an opportunity for the league to do more to promote social and societal change -- especially since players, who will be confined to the campus, will have plenty of free time on their hands and with what's expected to be a sizable media contingent present. ''How can we use our larger platform, the NBA together with our players, really to affect change?'' Silver asked. ''There's an appropriate role, of course, for protests. There's an appropriate role for those who choose not to engage in the game of basketball down in Florida. But ... for those who decide to come, together with the
Goodell, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman and MLS commissioner Don Garber acknowledged there will be positive tests once their sports return, but that they are hoping to isolate those as quickly as possible along with aggressive use of contact tracing. Monday's show began with baseball commissioner Rob Manfred casting some doubt on whether there will be games this season after a breakdown in talks with the players' union on salaries. Manfred said last week he was 100% certain games would be played. ''I'm not confident. I think there's real risk; and as long as there's no dialogue, that real risk is going to continue,'' Manfred said. ''The owners are 100% committed to getting baseball back on the field. Unfortunately, I can't tell you that I'm 100% certain that's going to happen.''

Model Predicts Over 201K U.S. COVID Deaths By October
National Coronavirus Recovery Commission Released
(Seattle, WA) -- A model is forecasting over 201-thousand people will die in the U.S. from coronavirus by October 1st. The Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington's predictions also include a possible range capped at well over a quarter of a million. One of the model's creators said the increased projections are due to "increased mobility and premature relaxation of social distancing." Recent infection surges in states like Arizona and Florida are leading to a higher death forecast. The IHME's blueprint also takes into account an expected second wave of the virus this fall. Factors weighed in the model include cell phone data, the number of people who wear masks, testing, pneumonia trends, and population density.
(Washington, DC) -- The final report from the National Coronavirus Recovery Commission is complete. Created in April by The Heritage Foundation, the list of over 260 specific recommendations will help Americans navigate through the challenges of the coronavirus pandemic and towards economic recovery. Its mission is to protect both the lives and livelihoods of citizens as over 40 million people have filed unemployment claims. The report will help guide local and federal policymakers and communities on a path forward. Labor Secretary Eugene Scalia said the private sector, not government relief programs, will be the catalyst for an economic jumpstart. He added recent job reports have signaled a slow return to normalcy after the nation turned the corner against the virus last month.
EPA Getting Sued Over Plan To Use Genetically-Modified Mosquitoes (Washington, DC) -- The EPA is facing a new lawsuit over the potential release of geneticallymodified mosquitoes in a pair of states. A number of groups, including the Center for Food Safety, filed notice of intent to sue late last week. They claim the federal agency broke the law by not consulting with wildlife experts before deciding the mosquitoes pose no risk to threatened species. The EPA announced a plan last month to use the genetically-modified mosquitoes as a way to reduce the mosquito population and prevent mosquito-borne illnesses.
NIH Launches Database To Gather Coronavirus Info From Patients (Rockville, MD) -- There's a new national database to gather medical information from U.S. coronavirus patients. The National Institutes of Health launched the effort Monday. It aims to turn "clinical information into knowledge" that's needed to study the respiratory illness. That includes health risk factors that show "better or worse outcomes of the disease, and identify potentially effective treatments." The announcement comes as states have seen spikes in COVID-19 cases since reopening. The U.S. has the most cases and deaths in the world.
