COVERING BEAUFORT COUNTY
Group to focus on local flooding By Amy Rigard
T
ropical Storm Irma is behind us, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be prepared in case of another hurricane or tropical storm. Hurricane season doesn’t end until Nov. 30, so while we are still cleaning up from Irma, we should have preparations in place, according to officials. Those preparations include having at least one gallon of water per person per day for at least three days; a threeday supply of nonperishable food and a can opener; and a flashlight, first aid kit, batteries and a cell phone with chargers and a backup battery. If we face another evacuation, you should have prescription medications; pet food and extra water for your pet; a full tank of gas; cash or traveler’s checks; important family documents and copies of insurance policies; and a sleeping bag or warm blanket for each person. For more on hurricane preparedness, visit www.nhc. noaa.gov/prepare/ready.php.

One killed, two others shot in separate incidents Staff reports
A man was found dead on Sept. 20 near the Mason Lodge on Chowan Creek Bluff Road on Lady’s Island in what the Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office is calling a homicide. Sheriff 's office deputies responded to a report of a deceased man near the lodge. When they arrived, they saw that the man had been shot twice, according to a sheriff ’s office report. The victim was later identified as Joshua Daise, 33, of St. Helena Island. An autopsy was scheduled to be performed at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston. The Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office was looking for a gold 2006 Chrysler 300 that Daise had borrowed from the owner. While patrolling on St. Helena Island, a Beaufort County deputy located the abandoned vehicle. Anyone with information is urged to call Staff Sgt. Adam Zsamar at 843-255-3408 or

Many Mossy Oaks residents are all too familiar with the flooding that often occurs in their neighborhood when it rains. Mitigation of this recurring flooding, which is due to the area’s aging and inadequately maintained stormwater drains and the rising tides of Battery Creek, is now among city leadership’s highest priorities. Mayor Billy Keyserling said in a recent newsletter, “I also have a heavy heart, though of a different sort, for the residents of specific areas of Mossy Oaks (the largest concentration of residents in the city limits) who were again battered by huge rain events. “I feel for those who come home to flooding and when they appeal to elected officials, all they get is finger pointing as to who is responsible and excuses as to why longterm problems are not completely addressed. I am as guilty as others and am compelled to do something leading to temporary and not long thereafter (seek) permanent relief though that will be extraordinarily expensive. I believe others are on board for such collaboration.” City of Beaufort and Beaufort County employees acknowledge that working toward a permanent solution for the Mossy Oaks area is a priority, but resolving the issue will be complicated and likely costly. Fixing the aging stormwater drainage system is complicated due to multiple jurisdictions – including the city, state and private residents – owning different parts of the neighborhood and infrastructure such as the roads and ditches. Neal Pugliese, director of Public Projects and Facilities for the city of Beaufort, said, “Now is not the time to point fingers or blame anyone. Now is the time to be forward looking, and not looking backwards.” That forward-looking approach has been initiated by the city, with the formation of an intergovernmental task force.

PUBLIC SAFETY Mobile home fire endangers neighbors
The Burton Fire District extinguished a rapidly spreading fire in The Bay Mobile Home Park on Sept. 24 that resulted in a resident losing his home but no injuries. Just after 11:30 p.m., Burton firefighters responded to a reported house fire in the Bay Mobile Home Park on Shanklin Road in Burton. Firefighters found flames coming from a single-wide mobile home that were spreading to a neighboring home through the brush and grass. Firefighters were able to stop the fire’s spread, which had come within 5 feet of the neighboring home, and extinguished the fire. The resident was home at the time of the fire but was uninjured. The city of Beaufort also responded to the scene. Firefighters were able to bring the fire under control in less than 15 minutes; however, fire crews remained on the scene for over four hours completing the extinguishment. On March 6, the Burton Fire District responded to a fire in The Bay Mobile Home Park that resulted in the death of a female resident, and only weeks ago, Burton firefighters also extinguished a Seabrook fire that resulted in the deaths of an adult and two children. According to the State Fire Marshal’'s Office, so far in 2017, the fire deaths in South Carolina have already matched the total number of fire deaths in 2016, and have state fire officials concerned.
Fire extinguished in Port Royal
City of Beaufort/Town of Port Royal Fire crews were called out to 601 Paris Ave., the former Port Royal Cement Co. building, on Sept. 21 on a report of a fire. Firefighters found smoke coming from the empty building near what used to be the administration office. Lines were quickly deployed and the fire was out within minutes of the arrival of the fire department. Due to the size of this building and the fact that it wasn’t immediately clear what was on fire, additional units were summoned to ensure appropriate manpower was on scene to provide for firefighter safety. The Beaufort/Port Royal Fire Department was assisted by the Port Royal Police Department, Beaufort County EMS and the Burton Fire District. An investigation found that the remnants of what was what the administration office of the Port Royal Cement Company building, the large building on the pier on the property, was where the origin of the fire was. The cause of the fire is still under investigation. Damage was limited to some old finishes and trim in the office. No one was injured as a result of the blaze.
One injured in wreck on bridge
The Burton Fire District responded to a motor vehicle accident on the Broad River Bridge on Sept. 22 that resulted in one occupant being transported for injuries. Just before 8 p.m., Burton firefighters responded to a reported motor vehicle accident on the Broad River Bridge. Firefighters arrived to a two-vehicle accident A2

between passenger vehicles with both sustaining moderate to heavy damages. One occupant was transported with unknown injuries. Traffic was delayed for approximately 30 minutes while emergency crews assisted the occupants and removed roadway hazards.
Explorer Program seeks participants
The Beaufort County Sheriff 's Office is seeking participants between 14 and 21 years of age for its Explorer Program. Program benefits include opportunities to ride along with patrol officers, education and hands-on training for those who may be interested in pursuing a career in law enforcement. The Explorer Post meets bi-weekly from 7-9 p.m. on Tuesdays. Those interested in applying are encouraged to contact Explorer Program Coordinator Kiera Morris at 843-255-3316 or email kieram@ bcgov.net.
Vehicle fire ends busy day for firefighters
A late night vehicle fire in Seabrook on Sept. 19 ended what was a busy day for Burton firefighters who had responded to 19 emergencies throughout the day including three motor vehicle accidents, one in which a driver was trapped with critical injuries and had to be rescued. Just before 8:30 p.m., Burton firefighters responded to a reported vehicle fire at the intersection of Delaney Circle and Stuart Point Road. Firefighters arrived on scene to a passenger vehicle off the roadway and in a wooded area fully involved in flames. Firefighters quickly extinguished the fire and a resulting small brush fire utilizing 750 gallons of water.
Missing man believed in danger
A man has been reported by his family as missing and officials believe he may be in danger. Kenneth Jenkins Jr. was reported missing by his family, which had not heard from him since the night of Sept. 16, when he took a friend to dinner. After dinner, Jenkins dropped off his friend Kenneth Jenkins Jr. and stated he had to take a friend to Ridgeland. Jenkins has not been heard from since. He is a black male about 6 feet, 1 inch tall and weighing 165 pounds. Anyone with information is encouraged to call CrimeStoppers at 888-274-6372 to remain anonymous and for a possible reward.
Raid turns up guns, heroin
The Bluffton Police Department’s Special Investigations Unit and Strategic Response Team carried out a search warrant on Sept. 22 that resulted in four arrests and the recovery of illegal drugs and guns. The search warrant stemmed from an ongoing investigation into the sale and distribution of illegal narcotics from a residence located at
1242 May River Road. As a result of that ongoing investigation, Bluffton Police Department’s SIU and SRT, with the assistance of the Jasper County Sheriff ’s Office and Fourteenth Circuit Solicitors Office Career Criminal Unit, conducted a search of the home. Detectives found trafficking quantities of suspected heroin, quantities of cocaine, Xanax, a .40 caliber handgun and an AR-15 rifle, along with an undetermined amount of cash. This search warrant comes less than a year after a similar search warrant was executed at the same residence, which resulted in multiple narcotics related arrests. “We will continue to investigate through tips from the community, as well as intelligence gathered through investigations and work with local, state and federal partners to disrupt and dismantle drug locations within our community”, said Bluffton Police Chief Joseph Manning.
Officials ask for help in solving crime
On June 24, 1972, Michael Steven Akey, 14, was reportedly abducted by an unknown white man driving a 1962-63 four-door Chevrolet near a watermelon patch at Trammell’s Market. In 1972, Trammell’s Market was located in the area of Joe Frazier Road and Godwin Road in Burton. At the time of the abduction, he was in the company of two juvenile friends and all three were hitching and caught a ride with the subject. While two were stealing watermelons, the subject drove off with Akey in the vehicle. Akey was not seen alive again. The juvenile witnesses were unable to provide the identity of the subject. On Feb. 8, 1978, workers discovered skeletal remains while clearing land near Whitehall Plantation on Lady’s Island. The remains were examined by a forensic pathologist and anthropologist and using existing available technology, it was believed the remains were those of Akey and he was interred in Beaufort National Cemetery. On Aug. 24, 2005, the remains were exhumed for mitochondrial DNA analysis to firmly establish the remains were in fact Akey. The FBI Laboratory in Quantico, Va., performed the analysis and concluded the remains were of Akey. A reward of up to $2,500 is offered for information leading to an arrest in any Beaufort County cold case. During some criminal investigations, investigators might exhaust all credible leads in a case. When this happens, the case can become stagnant or what is typically known as “cold.” However, the Beaufort County Sheriff ’s Office is making theses cold case files accessible to the public in hopes that someone might come forward with information that may not have yet been uncovered. If you have any information regarding this unsolved cold case, contact Capt. Bob Bromage at 843-255- 3402, 843-816-8013 or robertb@ bcgov.net. To remain anonymous and collect a possible reward, call Crimestoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC (274-6372). No matter how insignificant it may seem, any information offered in reference to a cold case could prove to be the missing link needed to solve the case.

Investors should look at all options Balancing the desire and need of solid market returns alongside the growing fear of a market correction seems to be at the forefront of retail investors' thoughts. International markets continue to be the center of attention; they have pulled out of their multiyear slump and have delivered real returns for the first time in several years. For those who know and follow our strategies, international equities are still ranked No. 2 within our proprietary ranking system, but their quick move from dead last to second is no small feat. U.S. equities, however, have continued to hold the No. 1 position since the third quarter of 2016. U.S. equity markets are still showing strength as earnings season continues to show positive results in a wide range of
sectors. While international markets may be the shiny new toy in a multiyear U.S. large cap dominated market, U.S. exposure remains a critical asset class. Regardless of the Charles Tumlin strength the market is showing, advisors, analysts other money managers are starting to ask the question: When is this going to end? After a solid eight years of growth, record highs in all three of the major U.S. equity indexes and continued extension of equity valuations at some point the markets will turn. Right? Whether that will be next week or several years from now we will not know until we look back after the smoke has cleared.
In the meantime, we still have to answer for current performance and plan for the known issues clients are facing such as saving for retirement, providing retirement income or protecting their investment. How does one successfully balance the fear of missing out (FOMO) with being adequately prepared for a market correction (OHNO) in an investment portfolio? The answer may be knowing when to properly utilize cash as an asset class. The next time you are in a conversation with your advisor (or yourself ), ask about all the different asset class choices you may have. If cash is not brought up in the conversation, you may want to consider an alternate investment strategy. Relative strength is one strategy that considers cash to be an available investment option versus other asset classes
like international equities, U.S. equities or bonds. How much cash should you have? A simple process of supply and demand helps to make that determination.

Financial plan needed for divorce A divorce is obviously an emotionally charged time for you and your family. You’re juggling a lot of arrangements and financial details. Most divorce attorneys suggest thinking about how to divide your financial responsibilities as early as possible ‒ particularly if you have shared debt. Look at shared debt With the help of a mediator and/or your financial advisor, you may be able to decide which of you will take which debts. You may consider paying off or closing any credit accounts before you divorce. Most states allow people to settle debt issues between the couple. If you can’t come to an agreement and the court has to decide for you, the divorce can get very complex and expensive. Another reason to be proactive about your shared debt: It can help you both maintain good credit ratings after your split and, perhaps most important, prevent uncomfortable conversations about unresolved debts with your ex-spouse in the future.
Get help with finances Meet with your financial advisor at the first hint of impending separation. A good financial advisor will be compassionate and willing to remain neutral if he or she serves both you and Whitney your soon-to-be-ex. McDaniel Your advisor can revisit your investment portfolio and do a cash-flow analysis to illustrate what you might draw as future income. He or she can also offer advice about which shared debts might be best for you to take on (or avoid), given the amount of risk with which you are comfortable. Start with your credit report A smart way to begin reviewing your debts is to request a copy of your credit report so you can verify which liabilities are in your name. If your spouse is willing to share his or her credit report, that can help you get a full breakdown of all shared debts.
Your obligations might include assets such as a primary home, vacation home, vehicles, credit cards and lines of credit, family business–related debt and possibly student loan debt. Once you have a full picture of your debts and assets, you can discuss dividing them. What about the house? Research confirms most divorcing women want to keep the matrimonial home whenever possible, especially when children are still living there. The spouse who keeps each home should also take responsibility for its loan, refinancing it in their name if at all possible. Know your debts One situation where you might have to continue working together with your exspouse on a shared debt is if you have an unresolved tax obligation. You should talk to the IRS about setting up separate payments on that joint debt. You may not agree on how to split conten-
tious debts, such as secret credit card debt created by your spouse. In that case, your state’s laws will come into play. For instance, in most states, ownership of debts is decided by “equitable distribution.” A judge or mediator assigns debts to spouses according to factors such as who signed for it, got greatest value from it or has the larger income. Overall, information is the most important key to handling debt well during a divorce. Collect tax returns, credit reports and bank and brokerage statements as early as possible. The more you know about your marital finances, the easier it should be for you to negotiate over outstanding debts at the settlement table.

Teens should learn to drive in severe weather By State Farm
Your teen drivers are bound to encounter bad weather on the road. Are you confident they can handle it? Help prepare them with these driving tips for traveling in heavy rain, fog and other severe weather. Also, if bad weather is in the forecast, be sure that an experienced driver goes along to help them learn to handle the elements. Establish safe driving habits Driving too fast for road conditions is a leading cause of crashes involving teen drivers. Talk to your teens about the importance of slowing down and taking these additional precautions: • Increase following distance when travel-
ing on wet roads. • Brake slowly and only when traveling in a straight line. • If you hydroplane, take your foot off the accelerator and keep the wheels pointed straight ahead. • Use low beams or fog lights when traveling in dense fog. • Have your teen do lots of practice driving in a variety of weather conditions. • As always, be sure all passengers are buckled up. How to handle a crash You can help teen drivers stay calm in the event of a collision by walking them through the appropriate steps ahead of time. Instruct your teen to:
• Take a deep breath and stay calm. • Check to see that everyone is OK and call 911 to report the crash and any injuries. • If you're able, move cars out of traffic and turn on the hazard lights. • Notify your insurance agent immediately. • Take photos of the damage. The State Farm mobile app (www.statefarm. com/about-us/innovation-research/mobile-apps) can help with this step. • Wait until the police arrive to speak to anyone about the crash, get the other driver's information or sign any documents. • Ask if police will be filing a report, which will collect a lot of the information you need to file a claim
• Don't leave the crash scene until the police do. Find more information from State Farm about driving safety tips for severe weather (www.statefarm.com/simple-insights/auto-and-vehicles/can-you-drive-safely-in-every-type-of-severe-weather), and visit the Teen Driver Safety website (teendriving.statefarm. com) for additional safe driving tips for teens.

Competition for real estate heats up By Janet Gresham
August tends to mark the waning of housing activity ahead of the school year. Not all buyers and sellers have children, but there are enough parents that do not want to uproot their children during the school year to historically create a natural market cool down before any actual
temperature change. Competition is expected to remain fierce for available listings. Savvy sellers and buyers know that deals can be made well into the school months, as household formations take on many shapes and sizes. In August in Beaufort County, New Listings were up 1.9 percent to 217.
Pending Sales decreased 4.6 percent to 188. Inventory grew 5.3 percent to 988 units. Prices moved higher as Median Sales Price was up 12.6 percent to $225,000. Days on Market increased 20.5 percent to 88 days. Months Supply of Inventory was

IN OTHER NEWS NEWS BRIEFS Landscaped medians coming to Boundary Street
This is an artist’s rendering of what the raised, landscaped center median will look like on Boundary Street. Photo provided.
Starting the night of Saturday, Sept. 30, crews will begin re-striping Boundary Street to provide lane shifts for the upcoming construction of raised, landscaped center medians. During this initial work, all four lanes of traffic will remain open. When construction of the medians begins in mid-October with lane restrictions, much of that work will be done at night to minimize traffic disruptions. Drivers should use extra caution along the Boundary Street corridor work area starting Sept. 30 and be aware of the new lane stripes. “We are in the homestretch of this important project, and we ask everyone to continue to be patient and cautious in the work zone,” said Neal Pugliese, director of public projects and facilities for the city of Beaufort. “The re-striping will set the stage for all the work to put in the landscaped center medians, and later in the fall we’ll see actual asphalt paving along Boundary.” The work is one of the last major elements of the $33 million construction project that will impact traffic flow, along with the final paving and striping of the roadway and activation of new traffic signals. The Boundary Street Project stretches from Neil Road to Sycamore Street at Beaufort City Hall. The project includes realigning the Boundary Street intersection with Robert Smalls Parkway, which was largely completed in mid-2016. Work will continue in that area for the next several months prior to final landscaping, paving and striping. For more information about the project, visit www.boundarystreetupdate.com.
County presents award to Adopt-A-Highway group
The Solid Waste and Recycle Section of Beaufort County’s Public Works Department held its annual Adopt-A-Highway meeting and award ceremony on Sept. 19. Local volunteers were updated on program events and were provided with supplies to help remove litter from local roadways. The Randy Boehme Adopt-A-Highway Group received the 2016 Adopt-A-Highway Group of the Year Award, presented in partnership with Palmetto Pride and the South Carolina Department of Transportation. Randy Boehme accepted the award. Beaufort County Council Member Michael Covert, District 7, thanked this group and all volunteers for their service to Beaufort County. County Councilmember Alice Howard, District 4, also attended the event. The county reminds residents that litter damages the beauty and environmental health of our area. Residents should not throw trash out of their vehicle. Transported loads should be covered tightly to prevent trash from being blown out of vehicles. All waste should be properly disposed of utilizing appropriate waste collection services. Anyone interested in forming a new Adopt-A-Highway volunteer group should contact Caroline Jordan at cjordan@bcgov. net or by phone at 843-255-2734.
Beaufort mayor honored for conservation efforts
Beaufort Mayor Billy Keyserling was the recipient of the Harriet Keyserling Conservation Advocacy Award at the Ninth Annual Green Tie Luncheon. The luncheon, held at the Grand Hall of Historic 701 Whaley in Columbia and hosted by the Conservation Voters of South Carolina (CVSC), honored public servants and conservation leaders for their dedication to creating a safe, clean and healthy South Carolina. Keyserling received the award, named for his mother, “for being an unwavering advocate
for South Carolina’s coastal communities,” according to a release. “Most recently, he has been on the front lines of the fight to keep offshore drilling out of South Carolina.” “It is a personal honor to be recognized in my own right for approaching the high standard set by Harriet. In the General Assembly I followed the path she and her allies set on nuclear waste and energy,” Keyserling said. “This award honors Harriet’s moral compass and steadfast commitment and tireless efforts to ensure the earth is clean and more sustainable for the next generation. I will continue to work hard to uphold that standard." According to a release, "Keyserling has long advocated for protecting the special places that both tell the stories of our communities and also protect our air, land, and water. For 14 years, he was a key player in efforts to immortalize the stories from the Reconstruction period in Beaufort County. These efforts culminated earlier this year when President Obama announced the creation of the Reconstruction Era National Monument.”

United Way asking for committee volunteers
The United Way of the Lowcountry is recruiting volunteers to serve on the Community Impact Committee. These volunteers help determine how undesignated United Way annual campaign donations will be distributed to local agencies and services throughout Beaufort and Jasper counties to make a lasting impact. Through the Community Impact Model, United Way of the Lowcounty is addressing the needs of today, while working to get to the root causes of key issues. With the community's support, United Way is focusing on four priority areas: Basic Needs, Education, Health and Income/ Family Stability. Those who donate to United Way of the Lowcountry have the opportunity to serve on the Community Impact Committee and help determine what programs will provide the community with the greatest impact. No experience is needed and training is provided. Volunteers must be able to attend one of the following training dates: 9-11 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 5; 1-3 p.m. Monday, Oct. 9; 10 a.m. to noon Wednesday, Oct. 11; or 1-3 p.m. Friday, Oct. 13.

New aviation group formed in Lowcountry
Showing the “magic of flight” to Beaufortonians, improving the Lady’s Island county airfield, creating new pilots and increasing the proficiency of those who fly are the goals of the new Beaufort Aviation Association. Derek Richardson, of Executive Flight Training, is leading the recruitment of pilots; Don Sanders of Seaside Farms and Frieder Kemmann of Import Service of the Lowcountry have the airport advocacy mission; and Wally Wallace, flight instructor and retired Navy and Delta pilot, leads the proficiency objective. Officers are James Atkins, president; Wallace, vice president; David Mixson, of Exxon Tiger Markets, secretary; and Will Tucker, treasurer. Discussed at its first monthly meeting on Sept. 20 were several needed airfield improvements that will be presented to the Beaufort County Council. To recruit new pilots, the Young Eagle program for kids aged 8-17 and the adult Eagle course will offer free introductory flights and a reduced cost path to a pilot’s license. The Beaufort Aviation Association is
open to all. Email jamesatkins100@gmail. com and attend the next meeting at 6 p.m. Monday, Oct. 16, at the Beaufort Airport Terminal conference room.

Rep. Sanford’s staff to hold office hours
U.S. Rep. Mark Sanford, R-SC, announced that his district staff will be conducting satellite office hours on Thursday, Sept. 28. Satellite office hours are conducted around the district by the representative’s staff in order to be as accessible as possible to constituents who require assistance with federal agencies, including Medicare, Veterans Affairs, Social Security, the Internal Revenue Service or even help processing a passport. Additionally, anyone wishing to express an opinion or ask a question is welcome to stop by. Office hours will be held at 12:30 p.m. at the St. Helena Branch Library at 6355 Jonathan Francis Sr. Road on St. Helena.
Redemption period end is approaching
The Beaufort County Treasurer’s Office will be contacting by mail the delinquent real property owners whose property was sold at the 2016 Tax Sale, to notify them that the redemption period will be ending. These notices will be mailed to delinquent property owners, mortgagees and/or lessees of the property of record. Real property sold at tax sale has a redemption period lasting 12 months and one day from the date of the tax sale, during which time the delinquent property owner may pay the delinquent taxes and interest to the bidder in order to maintain ownership of their property. There are currently 282 unredeemed properties. Redemptions can be made by the defaulting taxpayer, a lien holder or an agent for either one. These parties will have until 5 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 4, to redeem the property by paying all taxes, fees and penalties owed. If a property is redeemed, the bidder will be notified by mail. At that time, the bidder must return the Temporary Tax Sale Receipt to the treasurer's office for a refund of the bid, deed preparation fees and applicable interest. For delinquent property owners who do not redeem their property, there may be overage funds to which they are entitled. An overage exists when the winning bid amount for a property sold at tax sale exceeds the minimum bid. If the property is titled to the successful bidder, the owner of record at the time the redemption period ends is entitled to the overage funds. There are money-finding individuals and companies that will attempt to engage you in a contract to obtain these funds on your behalf, or even purchase your property from you. The treasurer’s office will assist delinquent property owners free of charge and discourage the use of money-finding individuals and companies. Taxes and redemption payments may be paid at any of the three office locations or by mail. Current redemption amounts can be found online at BeaufortCountyTreasurer.com.
Delinquent property auction to be held Oct. 2
The Beaufort County Treasurer’s office will conduct the annual Delinquent Property Tax Auction at 10 a.m. Monday, Oct. 2, at
the Charles Lind Brown Activity Center at 1001 Hamar St., Beaufort. The properties listed for auction are delinquent for the 2016 tax year and any prior years. Taxpayers wishing to prevent their property from being auctioned have until 5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 29, to pay any outstanding taxes due. Payments will not be accepted the day of the auction. All real estate subject to auction must be advertised once per week for three consecutive weeks prior to the tax sale date. A complete list of properties for auction can be found at BeaufortCountyTreasurer.com. Properties are advertised and auctioned in alphabetical order according to the defaulting owner's last name or company name as listed in Beaufort County’s tax system. If an owner has multiple properties being auctioned, the properties will be advertised and auctioned in numerical order by Property Identification Number (PIN). Individuals interested in bidding at the tax sale must register online or in-person at any of the three office locations before noon Friday, Sept. 29. All property recording fees will be determined the day of the sale and must be paid in full with the winning bid. The registration fee is $30 and includes a list of all properties to be sold, distributed the morning of the auction. Registration will not be permitted the day of the sale. On the day of the sale, bidder sign-in will begin at 8 a.m. and end at 9:30 a.m. All bidders must be signed in no later than 9:30 a.m. All bid payments, deed preparation costs and recording fees must be paid in full before the close of business on the day of the tax sale with guaranteed funds.

SCDCA offers help regarding Equifax breach
The South Carolina Department of Consumer Affairs (SCDCA) is arming consumers with the knowledge they need in the wake of the Equifax security breach. The SCDCA encourages the 2.3 million South Carolinians affected to guard against identity theft and: • Know the tools. SCDCA has a short guide dedicated to helping consumers whose information was exposed. From security freezes to nontraditional monitoring tools to the signs of ID theft, the guide will help get consumers on the right track. Access it on the Identity Theft Unit’s webpage. • Call SCDCA’s ID Theft Unit. Every case of identity theft is different. Consumers with questions about how to prevent or address identity theft are encouraged to contact the unit for specific guidance. • Avoid misconceptions and misinformation. Identity theft laws vary by state, so many SC consumers are often unintentionally given misinformation by the credit reporting agencies and national outlets. The best source for SC specific identity theft information is SCDCA’s Identity Theft Unit. Some common misconceptions are: • A security freeze costs money. It is free to place, temporarily or permanently lift a freeze for SC residents. If a SC consumer is charged, they should file a complaint with SCDCA. • Looking at credit report hurts my score. Consumers are entitled under federal law to a free credit report each year. It does not affect your credit score. • The fraud alert is the same as the freeze. The fraud alert only lasts 90 days and does not completely bar access from the credit report like the freeze does. The fraud alert also entitles consumers to an additional free credit report; the freeze does not. • Whether your information was lost, stolen or exposed, it doesn’t make you an identity theft victim. A criminal has to use your information for you to be a victim of identity theft. To view a new short guide on avoiding identity theft, and other helpful resources, visit www.consumer.sc.gov or contact SCDCA’s Identity Theft Unit at 844-TELL DCA (835-5322).

HEALTH HEALTH BRIEFS Support group offers comfort to parents
Recognizing the profound sorrow experienced by mothers and fathers who have lost a child, Beaufort Memorial Hospital has started a Parents’ Bereavement Support Group to offer comfort to those struggling to overcome their grief. The group meets at 7 p.m. the first Tuesday of every month in classroom 350-C of Beaufort Medical Plaza, 989 Ribaut Road. The next meeting is Oct. 3. “It’s heartbreaking to watch parents lose a baby and not be able to do anything but cry with them,” said Beaufort Memorial labor and delivery nurse Tiffany Heath. “Now we can offer them a resource for support after they leave the hospital.” Heath, who serves as one of the coordinators of the parents’ bereavement group, went through two days of training to learn how to
support patients who have lost a child. She helped start the group with Beaufort Memorial chaplain Ed Morgan. “My wife and I had a premature son who only lived a few hours,” Morgan said. “It’s a horrible, horrible heartache.” He experienced the sorrow again when his daughter delivered premature twin boys too young to survive. But the group also includes parents who have lost adult children. “It doesn’t matter at what age or how you lose a child, it’s a tragedy that is hard to overcome,” Morgan said. “The support group allows parents to share their experience and grieve with others who have been through it. It helps to know you’re not alone.” The needs of attendees determine the length and direction of the monthly meetings. For more information on the Beaufort Memorial Parents’ Bereavement Support Group, call Heath at 843-522-5176 or Mor-

Alzheimer's Association, Edward Jones partner
The Alzheimer's Association and financial services-firm Edward Jones recently entered into a partnership whereby Edward Jones has committed $4.7 million over two years to support the mission of the Alzheimer's Association, according to Brandon Cox, a financial advisor in Port Royal. Funding through the partnership will enhance the association's care and support programs, including the 24/7 Helpline (800-272-3900) and provide educational materials on brain health as well as funds for Alzheimer's disease research and grassroots awareness activities. In addition, the Alzheimer's Association
will provide services, support and education on brain health and Alzheimer's disease to Edward Jones' associates and clients. "With more than 12,000 branch office locations in the United States, this commitment from Edward Jones will move the Alzheimer's cause forward," said Donna McCullough, chief development officer, Alzheimer's Association. "Together we will reach more families who need information, resources and guidance as they face an Alzheimer's diagnosis and caregiving challenges. In addition, funding will support critical research exploring the causes of, and treatments for Alzheimer's disease." The partnership has several facets. The Alzheimer's Association will work with Edward Jones to create the Edward Jones Alzheimer's Research Fund, a targeted effort to advance research toward methods of treatment, prevention and, ultimately, a cure at a quicker pace. Edward Jones will also serve as the nationwide presenting sponsor of the Alzheimer's Association Walk to End Alzheimer's, an event that raised more than $77 million in 2015 to support Alzheimer's Association care and education programs, fuel research and advance public policy. The Alzheimer's Association will provide education programs to associates at Edward Jones, and will work to ensure their associates are equipped to share the resources of the Alzheimer's Association with clients.

“Any stormwater drainage solution for the Mossy Oaks area will require intergovernmental coordination and cooperation,” said Pugliese. The city has been working with the county and the state to study the current drainage system, and has applied for grants to help with drainage and stormwater mitigation. The city has already taken steps to address some immediate, short-term solutions such as clearing debris from drains and drain covers. Residents and business owners can also play a role in the mitigation solution by helping to keep the drains on their properties clear. A long-term solution such as a comprehensive stormwater drainage plan to move water away from the low-lying areas and to a centralized collection pond requires a coordinat-

ed and collaborative intergovernmental effort. Eric Larson, Beaufort County’s Stormwater Utility manager, noted that while the Mossy Oaks area lies within the city’s jurisdiction and not the county’s, the county has additional resources and equipment that could assist with the mitigation that the city does not. The newly established task force will be responsible for deciding whether an arrangement would be made where the county would perform the required work, with the city reimbursing the county. While the exact course of action is still to be determined, the task force will play a significant role in paving the way toward a permanent solution for the residents of Mossy Oaks.

Beaufort High educator named
Staff reports
A biology teacher with more than a decade of classroom experience has been named the 2017-2018 District Teacher of the Year. The selection of Nancy Ungvarsky, who teaches at Beaufort High School, was announced during a breakfast celebration to honor teachers of the year from all of the district’s schools. “As teachers we put our hearts and souls into what we do every day,” Ungvarsky said, “and it’s really validating to know that it’s worth it, that it’s helping people and making a difference.” Beaufort High Principal Bonnie Almond said that Ungvarsky was a superlative choice. “She’s the most exceptional teacher I’ve ever met,” Almond said. “She’s an incredible advocate for her students, and she infuses them with energy and excitement in every class.” Superintendent Jeff Moss said Ungvarsky has “the experience and passion necessary to represent every teacher in our district.” “One conversation with her can reassure any parent or community member about the excellence of the classroom professionals we have in Beaufort County,” Moss said. After the announcement, Martha Hartley, chief financial officer of Hilton Head Buick-GMC-Cadillac, offered Ungvarsky her choice of a $5,000 cash prize or $5,000 that she could apply toward a vehicle offered for sale at the dealer’s invoice price. “It’s an honor for our company to recognize top-quality teachers and to honor Dr. Ungvarsky,” said Tom Fitzgerald, the dealership’s owner. “Teachers play vitally important roles in students’ lives, and Hilton Head Buick-GMC-Cadillac is excited to recognize those teachers by supporting the Beaufort County School District’s Teacher of the Year program.” The Foundation for Educational Excellence announced an additional $1,000 grant award for Ungvarsky to support innovative instructional opportunities for her students. The foundation created the grant in memory of Wayne Carbiener, a former board of education member whose life and tenure on the board reflected his support and admiration for teachers. A new supporter of the Teacher of the Year program is Carroll School Services. Owner Mike Carroll said the company plans to donate a specially made District Teacher of the Year ring to each future year’s recipient. The four other finalists for 2017-2016 District Teacher of the Year were Duncan Aspinwall-Winter of Hilton Head
Island High School; Meredith Rhoden of Beaufort Elementary School; Jennifer Friend-Kerr of Hilton Head School for the Creative Arts; and Angela Bellantone of Bluffton Middle School. Ungvarsky said that her teaching style comes from understanding that students are required to use and interact with new information in many ways to make meaning out of facts. “On any given day in my classroom you will see students drawing diagrams to model what is being taught, working in small groups to explain their models to each other while using the vocabulary, taking the next step to refine the models to incorporate the next level of detail, and reading about real world applications of the concepts,” she wrote in her Teacher of the Year application. Ungvarsky said that for her, the most thrilling part of teaching comes when she watches her students explain what they’ve learned to others and share their newfound knowledge. Ungvarsky holds a Master's of Education in Secondary Science degree from the University of South Carolina as well as a Doctorate in Ecology and Evolution from the University of Pittsburgh. Prior to joining the Beaufort County School District in 2009, she taught at Georgia Tech. Becoming District Teacher of the Year is a three-step process that begins when school-level teachers of the year are selected in April. Those wishing to compete for District Teacher of the Year submit detailed applications by the end of July. In the second step, a selection committee consisting of parents, former educators and community leaders from across Beaufort County reviews the applications and rates them using a numerical scoring system. The five highest-scoring applicants are named as finalists. In the third step, the finalists are interviewed by a separate review committee again composed of judges from across the county. Those panelists begin by reviewing videos of the teachers doing classroom lessons. The judges then score candidates based on how well they respond to questions about the teaching methods shown in the videos, as well as how they respond to questions about current education issues. After those interviews, the panel selects the District Teacher of the Year in September, and that person represents Beaufort County in the South Carolina State Teacher of the Year program. Finalists for the state program will be announced in February.

Show must go on: Dueling Pianos rescheduled Staff reports
Everything was ready. It was a sold-out event set, the silent auction items were logged in and ready to be bid on. Plates, napkins, wine glasses and centerpieces for the tables were ready to be loaded up and taken to The Shed. Then along came Tropical Storm Irma. “The decision to reschedule was not an easy one” said Arlene Heape-Hull, executive director of Alzheimer’s Family Services of Greater Beaufort. Dueling Pianos, Alzheimer’s Family Services of Greater Beaufort‘s 10th Annual Dinner Theatre, will now be held Friday, Nov. 17, at The Shed in Port Royal. The obvious issues to be resolved with rescheduling were notifying everyone who had purchased or reserved tickets, and there were a

lot of them, said Heape-Hull. The group had to reschedule The Shed in Port Royal, with all of
the local chefs providing the dinner stations, and reschedule the entertainment: the pianist themselves.
And “what if we didn’t reschedule, imagine we had everything set up in The Shed ready to do and an evacuation order was issued? That just wouldn’t be a good thing,” said Heape-Hull. “When planning for the event early in 2017, no one thought about a hurricane” said Mike McFee, one of the members of the board of directors. “But we should have. Several of the board members and the executive director are all locals, born and raised here.” After quick discussion, the decision was made to reschedule, not to take the chance of Irma making an appearance and stealing the show. “We began trying to personally contact all those holding tickets, the entertainers, the local chefs preparing dishes for us, the town of Port Royal about The Shed, and Amazing Events about all of the rental equipment. Announce-
ments were placed on their website, on their Facebook page and on the answering machine message on the office phone - and lots of phone calls were made,” said Heape-Hull. “It was not an easy task,” she added. “I would rather plan 10 new events than reschedule one ever again!” All in all, so far, the reschedule has been successful. The pianists, Marty Richardson and Greg Cloninger agreed to the reschedule date, Gavigan Entertainment was available, all of the chefs agreed to the new date, and the Junior Service League of Beaufort worked with AFSGB to make The Shed available on Nov. 17. The group is also in the process of contacting all ticket holders. Call 843-521-9190 for more information or visit the Alzheimer’s Family Services of Greater Beaufort Facebook page.
SCHOOLS SCHOOL BRIEFS USCB to offer biology on Beaufort campus
A biology student works with a professor. Photo provided.
The University of South Carolina Beaufort announced that a select group of honors students intending to major in biology will begin study on the Beaufort campus in the fall of 2018. Students will live and learn together in a select biology cohort that elevates active learning and student interactions in and outside of the classroom. Students will be admitted to the cohort via a competitive entry process. This cohort model has proven successful at universities across the country. Residential learning communities improve student engagement, develop a sense of community, improve retention rates, result in higher GPAs and help students complete degrees in a timely manner. USCB is currently seeking proposals from private owners of housing facilities in the local Beaufort community for student housing to accommodate the new biology and nursing residential learning cohorts. The students will be within walking distance of the campus as well as shops, restaurants, the waterfront, parks, etc. Students’ first two years are spent on the Beaufort campus in preparation for completion of the biology honors program, the last two years of which are delivered on the Bluffton campus. “Providing enhanced learning opportunities will be an exciting part of this new biology honors program,” said Joe Staton, dean of the school of science and mathematics. Additional details about the Beaufort College Biology Scholars program can be found at www.uscb.edu/biology.
Irma make-up days scheduled for Saturdays
Two instructional days missed when Beaufort County School District schools were closed during Tropical Storm Irma have been rescheduled for Saturday, Nov. 18, and Saturday, Dec. 9. District schools were closed Monday, Sept. 11, and Tuesday, Sept. 12. South Carolina state law requires minimum numbers of instructional days or hours, depending on the grade levels of students. Initial proposals to use the first two of four board of education-approved potential weather make-up days (Nov. 11 and Nov. 18) were revised to accommodate parents, students and staff who wanted to participate in Veteran’s Day and St. Helena Heritage Day observances on Saturday, Nov. 11. In a calendar decision unrelated to the storm, the final day of the school year (May 31) has been changed from a half day of instruction to a full day.

Holy Trinity headmaster addresses conference
In a speech to the 2017 Teacher Training Conference sponsored by The Classical Latin School Association and others, the Rev. Chad E. Lawrence, Holy Trinity’s founding headmaster, shared the early days of the school’s origin and its growth to date at the Highlands Latin School in Louisville, Ky. "Rev. Lawrence was a phenomenal addition to our conference this year," said Assistant Director of Rev. Chad E. Lawrence the Classical Latin School Association Paul Schaeffer. "He did an excellent job helping the attendees dwell on gravitas, an essential aspect of any classical Christian school." Lawrence recalled that John McPhee’s book, “The Headmaster,” had a profound impact on him in his first years of guiding the growth of Holy Trinity. The book tells the story of Frank Boyden, who built Deerfield Academy during the first half of the 20th century. “In the United States, Frank Boyden was for years the youngest in a group that included the Rev. Endicott Peabody of Groton, the Rev. Frederic Sill of Kent School, Horace Taft of the Taft School, Dr. Samuel Drury of St. Paul’s, George C. St. John of Choate, Alfred Stearns of Phillips Academy, and Lewis Perry of Phillips Exeter. “At the moment, the heads of 29 American prep schools are former Deerfield masters or students,” Lawrence said. Now 86, “Boyden continues his work with no apparent letup, sharing his authority by the thimbleful with his faculty, traveling with his athletic teams, interviewing boys and parents who are interested in the school, conducting Sunday night vesper services, writing as many as 70 letters a day, planning the details of new buildings, meeting with boys who are going home for the weekend and reminding them
of their responsibilities to the ‘older traveling public,’ careering around his campus in an electric golf cart, and working from 7 a.m. to midnight every day. “But the point I want us to see is that Headmaster Boyden carried an undeniable gravitas in the life of his school. His presence carried great weight for the boys and faculty at Deerfield. He was present. In fact, he desired to be so present that he had his desk placed in the main hallway of the school.” Lawrence said the three pillars of gravitas at Holy Trinity form the foundation that supports the school, the faculty, the student body and the quality of learning that takes place there.
District to hold series of meetings
Beaufort County School District Superintendent Jeff Moss is holding a cycle of informal town hall meetings twice each year to present information to, and answer questions from, parents and citizens in each of the district’s “clusters” of schools.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
BCHS outlasts Calhoun County in overtime
Battery Creek, under the direction of new head coach Walt Wilson, wouldn't be denied a win on its home field late last week. Wilson guided the Dolphins past his former team, Calhoun County, 29-22 in overtime on Sept. 22. Wilson, who coached at Calhoun County from 2006-13, witnessed Battery Creek claim its second straight win. The Dolphins won two straight games for the first time since in the 2015 season. Battery Creek improved to 2-3 with the win. Calhoun County dropped to 1-4 with the loss. The Dolphins remained in the win column one week after blanking rival Whale Branch 23-0. Trey Booth scored a touchdown on the ground in overtime to give Battery Creek the win. Before Booth's game-winning run, Battery Creek and Calhoun County swapped leads on multiple occasions. Booth led the Dolphins offensively, rushing for 126 yards. Battery Creek quarterback Jordan Gwyn rushed for three touchdowns in regulation as Battery Creek sprinted out to a 22-7 lead. Much-improved Battery Creek remained in the win column after beginning the season 0-3 following losses to Beaufort, Swansea and Hilton Head. The Dolphins are due back in action on Friday, Sept. 29. Battery Creek is scheduled to visit Wade Hampton for the home team's Homecoming game.
Epps paces BA win over Calhoun Academy
The Beaufort Academy football team is on a three-game wining streak thanks in part to a solid rushing attack. Deshawn Epps delivered for Beaufort Academy in the Eagles' latest outing. Epps rushed for 293 yards and four touchdowns and also hauled in two TD passes to lead the Eagles past Calhoun Academy 55-18 in a mid-season high school football game on Sept. 22. With the win, Beaufort Academy improved to 3-2. Calhoun Academy dropped to 1-4 with the loss. Several Beaufort Academy players contributed both offensively and defensively to the win. Jaxon Spratling rushed for 91 yards in the Eagles' victory. Reaching the end zone with a score of his own, Max Emerson rushed for a 65-yard touchdown for the Eagles. Edward McCormick paced Beaufort Academy defensively, registering 21 tackles. Spratling followed McCormick in the defensive category, adding 11 tackles for the Eagles in the victory. Aiding the Beaufort Academy defensive effort, Daniel Richards recorded four tackles for losses in the triumph. Charlie Weeden provided a 65-yard interception return for a touchdown as the Eagles prevailed over Calhoun Academy. Beaufort Academy notched its third straight win after opening the 2017 season 0-2. The Eagles boast additional wins over Patrick Henry Academy and Northside Christian Academy. Calhoun Academy suffered its fourth
Productive Bluffton pulled away to beat Whale Branch 51-22 in a long-awaited home opener on Sept. 22. The Bobcats and Warriors are longtime gridiron rivals. Bluffton's victory kept Whale Branch winless. The Bobcats scored 32 points in the second period to pull away for the win. Whale Branch dropped to 0-4 with the loss. With the win, Bluffton improved to 3-2. Bluffton hosted Whale Branch for its first home game in the 2017 season. The Bobcats were slated to entertain Hempstead (Ga.) in a home opener on Sept. 8. However, the Bluffton-Hempstead game was cancelled due to Tropical Storm Irma. Bluffton flourished offensively throughout the matchup, erupting for a season single-game high 51 points as it dismantled Whale Branch. Quarterback Hunter Eldridge led Bluffton to the win, passing for 258 yards and five touchdowns. Eldridge excelled throughout the high school football game. Jermaine Patterson emerged as Bluffton's leading receiver, finishing with 167 receiving yards and four touchdowns. Irvin Mulligan paced Whale Branch, scoring two touchdowns in the loss. Mulligan broke free to score on a 66-yard TD run for the Warriors, who led 7-6 in the first quarter. Whale Branch is scheduled to face Woodland in a Region 6-AA game on Friday, Sept. 29. In another high school football matchup set for Sept. 29, Bluffton is scheduled to host May River in a Region 8-AAA game.

VOICES
Feathered Canadian friends make visit to Lowcounty Have you ever had one of those dreams where you found yourself at a place other than your nice warm bed? A dream where everything feels so real you can hear, touch and feel things? I had one of those dreams the other night. I dreamt I was stuck in a New York taxi cab, blocked in with cars all around me. The cars were honking and my cab driver was honking as much as the others. I looked around and asked myself, “Why do all the cars keep honking?” and “What am I doing in New York City?” That is when I woke up, safe and sound in my own bed. However, I noticed the persistent honking was still all around me. I walked out to the back deck where the sun was just beginning to rise and discovered the source of all the noise: There were flocks of geese honking incessantly above
Now what?

me. It was not car horns I had been hearing in my dream. It was the annual invasion of the Canadian geese. There were hundreds of them flying over our house. My husband came out on the deck behind me and said, “I was wondering what all that noise was about. I guess fall is here.” “Well, I can’t complain,” I replied. “This migration has been going on for a lot longer than I have been around.”
I pulled up a website for the National Wildlife Control Training Program to find out more information about the Canadian geese. The most pressing question: Why all the honking? According to the website, the “families” commute down to the South every fall/winter, looking for food and warmer weather. Talk about the proverbial snowbirds. Evidently the birds mate for life and travel with their spouse and offspring, finally
hooking up with larger groups as they continue their trip. The young ones (goslings) are the noisy members doing most of the honking. This is how they show their exuberance, glad to be with family (athough I am not sure anyone has asked them). The adult geese do not honk as often, but have much louder honks. It is their way to announce food, danger and predators. Now at least, I have a better understanding of all the noise. There are most likely people in New York City or other large metropolitan areas that might consider our area a bit too quiet. They’re used to the hustle and bustle of the city life and the familiar sound of cars honking. These people might be more comfortable visiting Beaufort in the fall. We have enough honking going on to make them feel right at home.
County administrator leaves a big legacy Beaufort County loses a great one this week. Gary Kubic, the county’s administrator for the past 13 years, goes home to Ohio. He was a great hire and we have Skeet VonHarten, Bill McBride and Weston Newton to thank for that. Among the many county steps forward Kubic oversaw, two eclipse the others: transparency and special needs. It was Kubic, for example, who recognized the opportunity to pick up some talented television techies when WJWJ folded, and with them start The County Channel. Now everyone with access to the Internet can watch a host of governmental functions live or on replay. Just recently, for example, as Tropical Storm Irma threatened Beaufort County and evacuation orders were being issued, the public could on their smartphones watch the sheriff ’s press conferences live. That’s thanks to Gary Kubic.
There’s more. There is so much current county financial information on the county’s website these days that reasonable readers cannot find it all. The level of detail that is available to the public is such Bill Rauch now that many Freedom of Information requests are answered simply with a link to an obscure page on the county’s website. That’s thanks to Gary Kubic. And, without going into the details of the program, suffice to say that for the friends and relatives of disabled or special needs individuals there is only one county in South Carolina where when there’s a problem — and these problems are always loved ones’ emergencies — there is someone at the end of the telephone line. Moreover, only in Beaufort County are there county-owned and operated residential facilities available for residents with
An intensely private man, Kubic never took the credit. He fled from it. County Council, his bosses, by definition because they were his bosses, got all the credit.
special needs. That’s thanks to Gary Kubic. Of course Kubic didn’t do any of this alone. Always of course he was “following the direction of County Council.” But who suggested the direction? Who, council member by council member and meeting after meeting, showed the council members the dream? When buildings would for various reasons become available to the county, who would quietly say,“You know, I’ll bet that building could be converted to Special Needs’ use.” Gary Kubic. Importantly, he did much more … like start from scratch the county’s now $5.8 million a year Stormwater Utility program — because they were pet projects of Gary Kubic’s. He did these things because after settling here in 2004 and hearing from the elected officials and the public where we were then and where we wanted as a county to go, he saw more clearly than most the steps to get there, and then when one step had been taken he’d suggest the next. In 2004, for example, the county was at war with Beaufort and Port Royal over the municipalities expanding their city limits into county territory. The issue was known then as “the annexation wars.” Those wars are a distant memory now. Why? Because Kubic suggested the county sit down with the municipalities and hash out The Northern Area Plan, which turned out to be the blueprint for peace. Harry Truman famously said, “It’s amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.” An intensely private man, Kubic never took the credit. He fled from it. County Council, his bosses, by definition because they were his bosses, got all the credit. Characteristically he declined to be interviewed for this column. Characteristically his bio on the Beaufort County website contains not a single personal detail. A ferocious worker, Kubic was all business.
He didn’t sugarcoat it. He didn’t suffer fools. He just worked. He never went to lunch. Instead, at lunchtime he ate at his desk a sandwich that he brought with him to work because there was always a ton that had to be done. Besides running the county government’s 44 departments and $205 million budget, there were always the unnerving troubles of various auditors, treasurers and assessors — each independently elected — to be dealt with. Established by state law, the county’s taxing system is complicated. Sometimes the independently elected officials don’t yet know the nuances of their jobs. Sometimes the complicated system puts them at odds with one another, or with the county’s bean-counters. When cash is on the line, getting the answers right matters. For one, it limits lawsuits. These are technical problems, not policy issues, and there are lots of them. Every day. County Council members want to hear as little about them as possible. But if the problems don’t get resolved, you can bet the County Council will hear about them because confused and unhappy people will keep dialing up the line until they find someone who can untangle the problem and explain simply its solution. The one at Beaufort County for the past 13 years that the bean-counters, the independently elected officials, the county officials and the unhappy people found who could answer the tough questions, year in and year out, at his desk and picking up the phone, was Kubic. Safe travels back to Ohio, Gary. You did a great job here. Bill Rauch was the mayor of Beaufort from 1999-2008. Email Bill at TheRauchReport@ gmail.com.

AROUND TOWN
Opera season to kick off with ‘Norma’ By Alan Schuster
In 1985, the Italian government issued 24 lira bank notes (which became obsolete in 2002 when Italy joined the Eurozone), 18 of which portrayed the images of some of the great and honored names in its rich history. Among them were Galileo, daVinci, Michelangelo, Marco Polo, Columbus, and two opera composers, Giuseppe Verdi – and Vincenzo Bellini! But why Bellini – who wrote only 10 operas – while two of his contemporaries, Rossini and Donizetti, combined to write 105? Why? Most likely, Norma. Long after Bellini’s tragic death at the age of 33, both Verdi and Richard Wagner found words to express their esteem for the composer. Verdi praised “the broad curves of Bellini’s melodies as being extremely long, and as no one had ever made before.”
Wagner, no friend of Italian opera, was even more fervent, writing about “Norma’s rich melodic vein expressing the most intimate passions with a sense of profound reality. A great score that speaks to the heart, and a work of genius.” The HD of the New York Metropolitan Opera, Bellini’s “Norma,” will be held at 12:55 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 7 at the USCB Center for the Performing Arts. Synopsis In the sacred forest of the Druids, Oroveso and the Druids express their hatred of their Roman conquerors. Pollione, the Roman proconsul, has left Norma, the Druid high priestess who has borne him two sons, and is now in love with Adalgisa, another priestess. He dreams that Norma will seek her revenge. After the Gauls perform their sacred rites,

Norma claims that the Gauls must not yet go to war because Rome will eventually destroy itself. She prays to the goddess of the moon for peace. Adalgisa meets Pollione and he enjoins her to run away with him to Rome. She later confesses to Norma that she has a lover, breaking her vow of chastity as a priestess. Norma forgives her until she discovers that Adalgisa’s lover is Pollione, and then pronounces a curse upon both of them. Norma, intending to kill her two children, cannot bring herself to do so and asks Adalgisa to care for them. Adalgisa asks Pollione to return to Norma, but is unable to change his mind and Norma, enraged, gathers her people and declares that Rome be exterminated. When people cry out for a victim to be sacrificed, Pollione is captured, but Norma stops the rite as the sacrifice is about to begin. She decides to sacrifice herself instead as she, too, has broken her vow of chastity. She climbs onto the sacred pyre, and moved by her courage, Pollione mounts the pyre with her. More than any other composer, it was Bellini whose operas gave meaning to Italy’s bel canto era ("beautiful singing") during most of Europe’s 19th century Romantic Period. And undoubtedly one of the most famous arias in all of opera takes places in the open-
ing act with Norma’s prayer to the moon, “Casta Diva”(Virtuous goddess). It’s a long, gentle melody first heard on a flute. What follows is a continuous flow of sweet melodies, raging emotions and high theatrics with very few lapses or applause traps. A few lengthy recitatifs take place, mostly as preambles to a series of stunning duets and trios involving the three principals. As the plot intensifies, the drama builds to an irresistable final scene of high drama, lasting more than half-an-hour. There’s a marvelous, intense duet between Norma and Pollione, “In mia man’ alfin’ tu sei” (To my hands ... only I can break your bonds …); Norma’s last great aria, “Qual cor tradisti” (The heart you betrayed); and the grand climax of the entire opera as they ascend to the funeral pyre. The singers Coloratura soprano Sonya Radvanovsky sings the title role for the first time since her inaugural American performance as Norma at the Met in 2013. The New York Times commented that when she sang “Casta Diva” at the Met, “she drew listeners in with her expressive shadings and heartfelt delivery, earning a thunderous ovation. Overall, her dynamic control was striking, with alluring pianissimos that contrasted with the passion of her singing at its most vigorous.” Joining Radvanovsky will be another distinguished Met diva, mezzo-soprano Joyce di Donato as Adalgisa. Tenor Joseph Calleja is Pollione, and Carlo Rizzi conducts. Tickets, etc. Tickets for all opera presentations are now available. All seats are general admission. Tickets are $20 for adults; $18 for OLLI members; and $10 for students. Order online at www.centerforthearts. com, or by calling 843-521-4145. The box office opens at noon. The USCB Center for the Performing Arts is located at 801 Carteret St., Beaufort. The next HD broadcast will be on Saturday, Oct. 14: Mozart’s most popular opera, “The Magic Flute.”

Saturdays at Grace AME Chapel on Charles Street in Beaufort. According to Hillary Lathan, who puts on the show with her husband, Alan, the show puts Jesus on a personal level that everyone can relate to. “People that may never walk into a church will come to the drama and experience the gospel in a way that is real and fresh to them,” she said. The show includes seven characters and seven pieces of music. The irony of the number is intentional, as seven is a biblically significant number, according to Hillary. For more information, visit www.musicofforever.org. The performances are free, but donations are accepted.

The service will be available only to Beaufort Branch customers who have a previously reserved item (considered a “hold”) and have been notified by the system that the item is ready for pick up. With the new curbside hold pickup service, Beaufort customers call the branch prior to arriving and library staff will confirm that their reserved item is available. Upon arrival, customers call the library again at which point a staff member will deliver the hold to the vehicle. The pilot will run for two months. Service began Sept. 5.
