Task force that violated FOIA laws not on council agenda By Mindy Lucas The newly formed Communications and Transparency Task Force was not on the Beaufort County Council meeting agenda for public discussion on Monday, July 22. Though he could not say whether the item would be added to the next regularly scheduled meeting on Aug. 26, Council Chairman Stu Rodman said that plans were “in the works” to add it for a future meeting. County officials had previously stated the formation of the board was in violation of state FOIA laws, or laws that relate to the Freedom of Information Act. This came after a press release issued by Councilman Mike Covert’s office on July 9, announced the creation of the “Communications and Transparency Task Force.” Contacted about the misstep last week, Rodman said he planned to follow the advice of the county administrator and county’s legal department and “take it up” at the July 22 meeting. “…Whatever we have to do to make it happen legally, we’ll do it,” he said on July 15. “We want to do it the right way.”

Local pilot lands vintage plane on Cat Island By Bob Sofaly As the old saying goes, any landing you can walk away from is a good one. Mike Rainey of Beaufort proved it to be accurate. Rainey’s 1943 De Havilland Tiger Moth suffered a damaged propeller during a Thursday afternoon flight around Beaufort and he land-
ed on Cat Island’s golf course. A foot-long piece of the outer edge of the 72-inch laminated prop splintered off; “it started to really vibrate” he said. Rainey said a most pilots are always looking for a place to land during a flight for that “just in case” scenario. “I probably could have made to Beaufort County Airport on
Lady’s Island. But I decided to be safe and put down on the 18th fairway of Cat Island golf course,” he said. “It was really vibrating.” Rainey, a 20-year veteran Marine Corps fighter pilot, said the old plane was made to take off and land in grassy fields. “It was not a problem,” he
said. “I circled around (the fairways) and saw only an alligator and deer near the green. I came in, landed, and must have scared them off.” Rainey said he would put a cover over the cockpit in case of thunderstorms. “I have another prop at home. I’ll go get it, swap props and take off in an hour.”

SC mourning dove season to open Sept. 2 It will probably still be quite warm, but nonetheless thousands of eager wing-shooters will be eager to take the field for the start of the mourning dove season in South Carolina in early September. For many in South Carolina, the opening day of dove season is synonymous with the beginning of fall and all of the great outdoor activities that come with it, and if the weather cooperates, this year's birds promise to be plentiful, according to biologists with the S.C. Department of Natural Resources. "We just recently completed our annual pre-season mourning dove survey," said Michael W. Hook, Coordinator for the SCDNR's Small Game program. "The current estimated dove population should provide very good September hunts provided we have no widespread adverse weather events."
For many youth hunters, in South Carolina, the opening day of dove season is a treasured rite of passage. Opening day of this year's early dove season in South Carolina will once again coincide with the Labor Day holiday on Monday, Sept. 2. The S.C. Department of Natural Resources Board has approved all migratory bird hunting seasons
in South Carolina for 2019-2020 based on the federal framework for migratory gamebirds. The seasons, daily bag limits, and methods of harvest have been published in the federal register by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The daily bag limit for 20192020 will again be 15 birds, and legal shooting time for the early season (Sept. 2-7) will begin at noon. Legal shooting hours for the later seasons will begin a half hour before legal sunrise. Legal shooting time ends at official sunset during all season dates: • Sept. 2-7, 2019: 12 Noon until Sunset • Sept. 8-Oct. 12: 1/2 Hour before Sunrise until Sunset • Nov. 16-Nov. 30: 1/2 Hour before Sunrise until Sunset • Dec. 28, 2019-Jan. 30, 2020: 1/2 Hour before Sunrise until Sunset

from page A1 Battalion Chief for the City of Beaufort/Town of Port Royal Fire Department. Jodi Joye, owner of both the building and Charles Street Realty, was out of town celebrating her hus-
band’s 60th birthday, when the fire broke out. A friend called to let her know her building was on fire, she said. “I’m just devastated,” Joye said. “The whole building is ruined. We don’t know what happened.” Joye said she had just had the building painted, had replaced rotted wood and roof boots and completed various other “general main-
tenance” work. Joye said the company will relocate to another building close to the property on Washington Street. She and her employees can also work from home, she said. “It will all work out,” she said. “I’ll be open tomorrow.” The cost of damages has yet to be determined. The fire remains under investigation.

Burton Fire District warns of risks beyond the flames
As part of its Community Risk Reduction and increased medical outreach programs, Burton fire officials are warning local residents about the outdoor burning of trash, and the risk it poses to the community beyond fire spread. The improper outdoor burning of yard debris has caused numerous fire issues for Burton firefighters. Improperly placed and unattended burning has led to damages of property; including homes, buildings, and vehicles. While these fire hazards continue, there are other public hazards occurring that Burton fire officials are warning residents about, and that involves the burning of trash. Beaufort County ordinance 2011/31, which out-
lines the proper legal guidelines for conducting outdoor burning of yard debris, states only vegetation originating on the premises can be burned. The burning of trash is prohibited. Beyond fire safety issues, any type of burning can cause health issues, which is significantly increased when burning trash. When trash burns, the heat and flames cause the trash to break down into a gaseous chemical state, which when breathed in, allows those chemicals to enter the lungs and cardiovascular system. Many items found in trash are created from elements, that when burned, can release carcinogens into the air which can then be breathed in. This can cause both short
and long term damage and illness to the lungs and body. On Saturday, July 20, Burton firefighters responded to a reported brush fire and arrived on scene to find the remnants of a mobile home, stacked in piles, being burned, with smoke permeating the neighborhood. It took firefighters more than 1,000 gallons of water to extinguish the fire, which included such items as PVC piping, electrical wires, and insulation. Burning any form of trash is not only a violation of county ordinance, but can also lead to a Department of Health and Environmental Control (DHEC) investigation and fine. DHEC was notified of Saturday’s illegal burn.

Food Lion donates refrigerated Committee to take up ‘Lady’s Island Plan truck to Lowcountry Food Bank On Wednesday, July 17, the Lowcountry Food Bank announced that Food Lion Feeds had donated a new 26foot refrigerated truck to help fight hunger in the 10 coastal South Carolina counties – including Beaufort County – that LCFB serves. LCFB's ability to pick up and transport food to assist individuals who struggle with food insecurity is vital to fighting hunger in the Lowcountry. "This new, refrigerated truck from Food Lion Feeds eases the hard choices that families are forced to make when they are hungry," LCFB President and CEO Pat Walker said. "The truck helps provides our community with equitable access to nutritious food, including fresh produce." LCFB picks up food from

Group will discuss implementation subcommittee
Lowcountry Food Bank President and CEO Pat Walker speaks July 16 in front of the organization’s new refrigerated truck at a Food Lion event in Columbia. about 48 Food Lion stores in coastal South Carolina. Last year, LCFB received 2.9 million pounds of food and distributed 2.4 million meals from Food Lion. The number of children, adults and seniors in South Carolina who struggle with
hunger is significant. The food-insecurity rate – the percentage of individuals without consistent access to nutritious food to live a healthy, active life – in South Carolina is 13.5 percent, which is higher than the national average of 12.5 percent.
By Mindy Lucas The Northern Beaufort County Regional Plan Implementation Committee is expected to take up the Lady’s Island Plan 2018 at their regular meeting this week. The committee will meet at 9:30 a.m. on Friday, July 26, in the Executive Conference Room of the Beaufort County Administration Building, at 100 Ribaut Road, in Beaufort. Developed in 2018, the plan was adopted by Beaufort County and City councils in April of this year and aims to address such growth and development issues
on Lady’s Island as fill dirt restrictions, the impact of sea level increases and the growth boundary. Robert Merchant, Assistant Community Development Director for Beaufort County’s Development Department, said Friday’s meeting will primarily be used to discuss the implementation subcommittee. The main committee, he said, already has its task force looking into the sealevel-rise and fill-ordinance issues. “We are already moving forward on those issues,” he said.
Speakers announced for Indivisible Beaufort’s August meeting Speakers at Indivisible Beaufort’s August meeting will take a closer look at the 2020 election including the problems created by gerrymandering.

2019 has been a record-breaking summer for loggerhead turtles This year has been a banner year for loggerhead turtles laying eggs throughout the southeast. On Sunday morning, Hunting Island broke its previous record, when Sea Turtle Conservation Project volunteers found the 142nd nest. In 2016 the island had 141 nests, the most recent “modern” record year.
Data entry became more standardized in 2000, thus “modern.” The previous record before 2000 was 157 nests in 1984. Scientists explain the great number of nests as the result of conservation projects that have been implemented for more than 30 years. There are currently more than 12,200 loggerhead nests
in Georgia, South Carolina, and North Carolina. The highest previous “modern” count was 11,321 in 2016. On Cape Island in the Cape Romaine National Wildlife Refuge, which has a third of the nests in South Carolina, there are so many nests this year that females are nesting on top of other nests.
NEWS BRIEFS
For the sixth time this season on Hunting Island, volunteers discovered a mother turtle coming ashore after sunrise. In the past it was very unusual to see these turtles unless they were injured or trapped. But this year on beaches around the southeast, loggerheads have been coming ashore in daylight.
The Sunday turtle also was only the second turtle since 2000 discovered with a tag on its flipper. The tag is EEK 795. Tag numbers are reported to the Department of Natural Resources, most often when found on dead or injured turtles, but with daylight visits, additional tracking information can be gained when tags are discovered.
The Beaufort County Alcohol and Drug Abuse Department is offering a free workshop on Narcan training and distribution from 9-10:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 3 in the Community Meeting Room at the Beaufort County Disabilities and Special Needs Building at 100 Clear Water Way.

Beaufort's Hardie still going strong, set for CrossFit games
By Justin Jarrett When Dave Hardie missed qualifying for last summer’s CrossFit Games by three spots, he figured his dream was over. At age 60, Hardie just missed making the cut of 20 athletes who qualified for the CrossFit Games — the pinnacle of the fitness regimeturned-sport — in the 60-and-over Masters division. And with another year of allowing age to encroach, as well as the field being trimmed down to 10 competitors in each age division for the 2019 event, the outlook wasn’t good. As if the advancement of age wasn’t enough of a challenge, Hardie also had surgery in June 2018 to repair the rotator cuff in his shoulder — the result of age, he says, not CrossFit — leading to a six-month rehabilitation process. Nonetheless, Hardie made one more run at his ultimate goal. He was one of 40,000 competitors who entered the online CrossFit Open in February and advanced through the qualifying process, ultimate-

ly earning one of 10 spots in the 60-and-over division at the CrossFit Games, which take place Aug. 1-4 in Madison, Wisconsin. “This has been a dream for at least five years,” said Hardie, who in June won the 60-and-over division at the Granite Games in St. Cloud, Minnesota. “When I first started CrossFit, I didn’t know what the CrossFit Games were, but it’s been a dream for a long time. This is the athletic pinnacle for me.”

Brutcher was 2-for-3 with a double, a triple, three RBIs, and three runs to lead Beaufort County at the plate. McKeever was 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI, and two runs; Shuford was 2-for-3 with a double, two runs, and an RBI; and Brown was 2-for-4 with an RBI. Brutcher earned the win in relief, allowing one run and two hits over 2 1/3 innings with two strikeouts. McKeever

Hardie took up CrossFit in 2013 while living and working in suburban New York City, but he ratcheted up his training when he and his wife, Marissa, moved to Beaufort three years ago, trading his daily commute into the city for more time in the gym. He spends two to three hours per day training, doing workouts provided by his remote coach and physical therapist in Pensacola, Florida, and working with worldclass weightlifting coach Ray Jones to improve his lifts. Jones also coaches Marissa, a Masters weightlifter with Team Beaufort. Hardie is a member at CrossFit Beaufort, the gym he will represent at the CrossFit Games, and also teaches a class there one night a week. But he says he couldn’t have achieved his lofty goal without help from other local gyms that have welcomed him for workouts when necessary. Although his competitive career is likely coming to a close after next weekend, Hardie says CrossFit will remain a big part of his life, and he

hopes others will follow his path. “I think CrossFit is a fountain of youth,” he said. “I think it enables you to kick butt into your 90s. It’s only as intense as people make it, so not everybody there is trying to compete on a global level. It’s just a magical way to get fitter and stay younger.” As for what to expect from his final competition, Hardie has only a vague idea — and he says that’s part of the beauty of the sport. Athletes will compete in seven to nine workouts over the three-day competition, but the disciplines could range from an open swim on a lake to heavy barbell lifts such as back squats or clean and jerk to a gymnastic element such as handstand pushups or ring muscle-ups. “They talk about CrossFit being the unknown and the unknowable,” Hardie said. “We don’t know what the workouts will be until we get there.” After the journey he’s taken to get there, Hardie is ready for anything.

back losses Saturday and Sunday at Oscar Frazier Park in Bluffton. Beaufort County opened the tournament with a 9-4 loss to North Myrtle Beach on Saturday and fell 23-13 to Seneca on Sunday in the double-elimination tournament. The hosts fell behind 6-2 after four innings against North Myrtle Beach and couldn’t dig out of the hole. Lucas Hamilton was 2-for-3 with an RBI, Ryan Giles was 2-for-2 with a double, and Garrett Greenwalt drove in a run for Beaufort County. Hamilton started on the mound and took the loss.
The offense came around for Beaufort County on Sunday, but the pitching and defense couldn’t slow down Seneca, which scored at least two runs in each inning and broke open a tied game with an eight-run third inning. Peter Hughes was 3-for-3 with three RBIs, Cooper Davis was 2-for-4 with two doubles and two RBIs, and Giles was 2-for4 with an RBI and three runs scored to lead Beaufort County at the plate. Emilio Mendoza added a hit, two runs, and two RBIs. Nicholas Fowlkes was charged with the loss in relief.

Jacob is greatly blessed by God. In an age when children were recognized as the greatest gift a family could receive, Jacob was blessed with a daughter and twelve sons. In chapters 28 and 35 of Genesis, God solemnly renews the promises he made to Jacob’s grandfather, Abraham. Jacob and his descendants would receive the promised land of Canaan, becoming a nation and eventually a kingdom. Through Jacob’s descendants, all the nations would be blessed. God changes Jacob’s name to Israel. In Genesis 32, Jacob finds himself in a physical struggle against a strange man. He holds his own in the ensuing wrestling match, and afterwards the stranger reveals himself to be an angel sent by God. Speaking through the angel, God changes Jacob’s name to Israel, which means, “He who struggles with God.” Throughout the rest of Scripture, both names are often used interchangeably; but it is due to this new name that his descendants are known as the Israelites.
God allows his goodness to shine through Joseph in Egypt. When Joseph arrives in Egypt, he is sold to one of the court officials. He shows himself very capable, and by God’s providence, Joseph is eventually made the second-in-command under the Pharaoh, the ruler of Egypt. Under Joseph’s leadership, the Egyptians are the only people prepared when a great famine strikes the Middle East. God reunites the twelve sons of Israel in Egypt. In a beautiful scene of forgiveness, Joseph forgives his brothers and reunites with them. He invites them to come with their families and settle in Egypt, where there is plenty of food. There they and their descendants will stay for the next four hundred years. Over those centuries, the families of these twelve sons of Israel will grow numerous and become the twelve tribes of Israel, setting the stage for the next chapter in the story of God’s divine rescue mission.
There is discord among Israel’s twelve sons. Israel was especially fond of his second youngest son, Joseph, born to him in his old age. Seeing their father’s preference for Joseph, the other brothers are filled with jealousy. One day when they are far away from home pasturing the flocks, they decide to kill their younger brother. At the last moment, they see an opportunity to sell him into slavery instead, and their brother is taken by traders to be sold in Egypt. (Genesis 37)

t is Wednesday morning, and I’m sitting at the black, formica-topped shelf that separates our small dining room from our (smaller) kitchen. It’s still early, and I’m reasonably content with my coffee and my (Great Grains) cereal. It’s the 4th of July, and I’m pondering the celebrants who will soon pour into Port Royal. The patriotic troop will park throughout town and then walk — sun block, beach towels and children in hand — to the beach. Once at the beach there will be swimming and the eating of hot dogs and then, later on, fireworks courtesy of the Marine Corps and the town. But, alas, I won’t be among the happy throng. Every 4th of July, my wife and I travel to the home of Pam and David Taub — in Beaufort — for a reading of the Declaration of Indepen-
SCOTT GRABER
dence. The recital involves 10 or 15 people who read parts of Declaration; and then David Taub delivers a follow-up homily on the price of freedom. All of this talking is paired with thinly sliced flank steak and several glasses of Pinot Grigio. Some years ago I had a reading part. But, in a moment of miscalculation, I adlibbed a short sermonette on (the widely misunderstood) King George III and why we might have stayed a part of the Commonwealth. For my mischief, reaction was swift — I was stripped
of my reading part and demoted to ordinary guest. Tonight I will sip my Pinot and eat my thinly-sliced steak in silence. But I wish I could talk because I’m truly worried about the ‘polarity’ between the Democrats and the Republicans; between the ‘Trumpistas’ and those who loath the former realtor; between North and South. Although I had a wandering, peripatetic youth, I was greatly influenced by my maternal grandmother who lived in Florence, S.C. Minnie Riddick Teachey was more of a mentor, and best friend, than a grandmother. And when I was 17 she became my refuge. It was during this time that I came to think of myself as ‘Southern.’ In the last couple of years I’ve noticed small things, magazine articles mostly — that take gratuitous shots at
all things Southern. Last month there was article in the June 24 edition of the New Yorker that was a ‘take-down piece’ on the Masters Golf Tournament in Augusta, Ga. Before that, there was Spying on the South by the late Tony Horwitz. The concept of spying is to follow in the footsteps of Frederick Law Olmsted who did a ‘turn’ in the South 10 years before the Civil War. While Olmsted made three trips and was focused on slavery and its manifestations, Horwitz chooses the Creation Museum in Kentucky to get his insight into the Southern species. Then its off to a ‘Louisiana Mudfest’ where hundreds gather to race monster trucks. After that it's a mule trip (in Texas) with a brutal and offensive mule-skinner named Buck. Well, you get the drift
here — we mule-skinning, mud-racing Southerners are truly worthy of contempt. But I also think the ScotsIrish who populate much of the American South have a persisting, corrosive distrust of the ‘elites’ who migrate from Williams or Brown into offices in Washington, DC, or to Wall Street in lower Manhattan. Although these Southern folks don’t usually write for the New Yorker or the Washington Post, they do vote. And these days they are sticking, velcro-like with Donald Trump. When I was in high school in Florence, I belonged to the student ‘chorale.’ In that capacity, I toured with our singing group north, ending up in Kingston, N.Y. It was here, in Kingston, where we performed our signature anthem — a slow, solemn, hymn-like rendition of Dixie. When we were

hree years ago, I wrote an article about getting an email from my granddaughter, who lives in Maryland. She asked me if I would like to be her summer pen-pal. I said yes and received her first letter in July of 2016. But after a while, we realized we enjoyed the correspondence and have continued the practice. We still communicate through texting and Face Time, but our letters are more interesting and describe our activities and adventures, worries and travels, and include encouragement and love.

Ultimately, we are leaving miniature history lessons behind that maybe someday her grandchildren might read. As grandparents, we often wonder what kind of legacy we will leave to our children
and grandchildren, but I have discovered that letter writing is in itself a legacy. How I wish I had a description of my own grandmother’s daily activities, and her thought on politics and books. What a treat it would have been to learn, through her letters, from a woman who born in 1896, what it was like to see an airplane for the first time, to be able to vote and to listen to the first radio broadcasts. In my most recent letter to my granddaughter, I wrote about being glued to the television set that summer day 50 years ago as Neil Arm-
strong stepped on the moon. I can still remember all my family watching breathlessly. What an accomplishment! And when you think about the technology at the time, it is scary! I have described to her a life without the conveniences she takes for granted. Computers, cell phones, “blue tooth” anything, Wi-Fi, and a host of other inventions that have been around since she was born almost 12 years ago. Now I ask her to think of the inventions there might be that her own grandchildren will take for granted. Trips to the Disney Moon
Park? My encyclopedia set seems so archaic next to her “Hey Google.” My dictionary is tedious compared to her auto correct. When I wrote her about some of my favorite songs, I realized that I still have words in my vocabulary that do not have any meaning to her like records, cassettes and CDs. Because all she has to do is download a song. My 2006 car still has a six-CD player in the glove compartment and there is a stack of CDs in a case.

finished there was mostly silence in the packed auditorium. Then members of the Kingston chorus began to file onto the stage — this was unplanned — and then their student director asked our student director if we would join them in Battle Hymn of the Republic. As we stood together on that stage and bellowed “My eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord,” I noticed that just about everyone in the auditorium was crying. And in that fleeting moment, I felt a kinship with these northern students. And in that same moment, I felt very good about the United States of America. I wish I felt that way today.

Tasting the bright side of the moon
D
iscovering a new wine, week after week, is definitely a great life plan. Sure, there’s a little bit of work that goes with it. Learning about it. Tasting it. But, not really any hardship there. Sonoma Valley, the source for this week’s new wine, has a great history with wine. In fact, it is known as the birthplace of the California wine industry. The valley is located in the southeastern corner of Sonoma County, in the San Francisco Bay area. The city of Sonoma is in the valley and parts of Santa Rosa also. There are some tidbits of history about this valley, though, that make it especially interesting. Before Spanish settlers, the coastal Miwok, Pomo and Wintun indigenous tribes inhabited what is now the Sonoma Valley. To them, it was known as the Valley of the Moon. In 1823, Mission Solano was the northern most of 21 California missions controlled by Franciscan monks. But within two generations, the Spaniards had secularized the missions. And dispossessed the indigenous people from their lands. The name Valley of the Moon was recorded in 1850, though. Also, author Jack London, claimed the name “Sonoma” was the Native American word for “Valley of the Moon.” London personally owned a ranch in the Valley of the Moon, where he and his
CELIA STRONG
descendants lived. In the 20th century, their back yard was a vineyard for the winery that eventually took the valley’s name. The Madrone Estate, founded in 1863, is one of the oldest and most historic wine producing properties in Sonoma. It was purchased by the Stewart family in 2012, renovated, and dedicated to estate grown varietal wines. With the Valley of the Moon label. Sonoma Valley wines are made from many grape varieties. This week there are two to look at. First, Pinot Blanc, a white grape that is a mutation of Pinot Noir. Despite its inauspicious beginnings, Pinot Blanc is a versatile grape that is used to make still, sparkling and dessert wines. Before its true identity was known, it was often thought to be a lesser version of Chardonnay. Its wines are medium to full bodied with good acidity and can do well with oak aging. Their aromas and flavors include apples, pears, peaches, lemon zest, almonds, a touch of smokiness, some possible floral hints and a gravelly, minerally finish. Although it is grown
in most wine producing countries, Pinot Blanc is not a well known variety in the United States, not like in France and Germany, but it’s always worth seeking out for its uniqueness. (The ones we find are always good!) The second variety for this week is Viognier. Another white grape that produces fuller bodied, perfumy wines with peach, tangerine, honeysuckle and almonds and hazelnuts as its primary aromas and flavors. (It also has mango, rose and citrus notes.) Viognier wines tend to have a juicy, almost oily, texture and are very complex, with layers and layers of subtle nuances. Valley of the Moon produces a blend from these two varieties. The grapes are fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve all the fresh fruit flavors and aromas. The blend is 85 percent Pinot Blanc and 15 percent Viogneir. From Sonoma, Pinot Blanc leans toward tropical fruits. And with malolactic fermentation, these stay vibrant in this wine. Sonoma Viognier has a huge, lush mouthfeel and loads of floral character. A glass of this wine has lots of peach and honey, pineapple and a ginger spiciness. A totally unique wine that really is the bright side of the moon. For $12.99 at Bill’s Liquors. Enjoy. Celia Strong works at Bill’s Liquor & Fine Wines on Lady’s Island.
