ZHS Honors Senior Scholars

By James Ronald Skains

“Barbara and I first came to Zachary 38 years ago pulling a UHaul trailer, and I guess that is the way we will leave in June when we move to Tennessee,’’ David Murray, currently Pastor of the Zachary Community Church told the Zachary Post. “Our son, who was only a few months old at the time is now a 38 year old Professor at North Carolina State University and our other son lives near Nashville where we are moving,’’ Murray added. During the 38 years after first arriving in Zachary as a Youth Minister under Dr. Barnes at the First Baptist Church, Murray and his family went half-way around the

world before returning to Zachary. Murray and his family spent five years working in the French West Indies Island of Guadeloupe in the Caribbean as a “Church Planter” (starting new churches). Murray’s work in Guadeloupe was a mission of the Southern Baptist Mission Board. “There were a lot of Hindu people in the rural areas of Guadeloupe,’’ Murray related. “That was the area in which I worked to establish new churches.’’ In 1848, sugar cane plantation owners on Guadeloupe begin to import indentured servants from Asia to work their fields, most of whom were Hindu. These were the ancestors of the Hindus that

Murray worked with. “From Guadeloupe, we moved to France to a language school located in Tours,’’ Murray explained. “The school was used to train Baptist Missionaries in the French language and culture.’’ “Living in France was truly a delight for all our family,’’ Murray pointed out, “especially me because I was such a WWII history buff.’’ “We were able to visit the beaches of Normandy and the national

cemetery where so many brave Americans were buried,’’ Murray noted. “Also, we visited the grave of General George S. Patton, and many other monuments that were tributes to the soldiers of WWII.’’ Both David and his wife Barbara grew up in Franklinton, Louisiana where Murray’s dad was the LSU Extension Service County Agent.

Although David and Barbara had known each other from the second grade, they did not begin dating until David transferred from Mississippi College (a Christian faith college) to Southeastern Louisiana University (SLU) in Hammond where Murray earned a BA degree in Business. “I really did not start out in life to become either a pastor or a missionary,’’ Murray acknowledged. “However, while I was attending Mississippi College, the Lord began to work on me and I was led back to Louisiana to attend SLU where Barbara and I were married 44 years ago.’’ “Then, I was led to enroll at New Orleans Baptist Seminary,’’ Murray, who earned a Master of Divinity degree, elaborated. “That was how I first became connected to Zachary, through one of my Professor who knew Dr. Barnes in Zachary. While I was doing missionary work as well as at the language school, I always felt like I was representing the church here in Zachary.’’ “After about ten years in France at the language school, we were called to come back to First Baptist of Zachary where we remained for 12 years,’’ Murray noted. “After our time with that church, we were asked to get involved with a small group of non-denominational Christians who, at first, where only interested in having Bible studies.’’ “After a period of time, the number of people coming to the Bible study increased to the point where we had a small church so we began to meet in a borrowed church

In April, 2011, Murray was the keynote speaker at a Relay for Cancer Survivor gathering where he discussed in-depth, “On the Road to Healing.’’ Murray also teaches at Zachary High School. He has taught British Literature, Business English, Journalism and college writing. “We do have a great school system in Zachary, and I will miss it’’ Murray acknowledged. “But all our faculty members and administration staff have worked very

Both our children and grandkids live anywhere from 10 to 17 hours of driving time from us,’’ Murray explained, “so, we finally decided to make the move to be closer to our children.’’ “I also hope to find a little time for fly fishing for bream in Tennessee,’’ Murray concluded.

In Our Schools Rollins Place Elementary Brings Crafts to Life with Biomes

For a culminating project of the second graders’ study of biodiversity, each class creates their own biome, which is an inflatable 10 foot sphere which students and parents can tour. The biomes represented are the Deep Sea, the Coral Reef, the Arctic, Antarctica, and the Rainforest. When they enter, they will encounter the students’ projects, which are life-size recreations of native plant and animal species. Special effects, including sound clips, fog machines, and black lighting add to the atmosphere of each biome. The students’ research has been podcasted and can be accessed either through scanning a unique QR code or by listening from a playlist downloaded onto an IPod.

Zachary Elementary Students Experience Cajun Culture with Louisiana Day By Theresa Dold Payment

On Thursday, April 24, students at Zachary Elementary School were treated to an up-close and personal experience with Louisiana Day. Activities included a presentation by Mr. Iris Alleman who explained to the students what hunting and fishing was like and is still like, for many Cajuns today. He showed them an example of a trap nailed to trees under water to attract alligators and other animals. Glitter, glue and giggles were all a part of the fun project of making masks during a presentation by Alice Blalock on Mardi Gras history and they experienced the rich culture of storytelling by several volunteers dressed in authentic Cajun clothing. They storytellers explained why their stories were so important to the Cajuns as a

way to pass down their culture to future generations. The most interactive parts of the day were playing games and of courseâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;dancing! Fern and Whitney Sonnier along with William and Bo Bueche took to the dance floor and showed the children traditional Cajun dances such as the two-step. Afterwards, the children were given the opportunity to experience the dances on their own as well as with the instructors. Volunteers in the community who want to ensure that our children know how unique and special the culture of their state is and to experience it through their lives made the day possible. Volunteers such as Mrs. Kris Dennis, Mrs. Kathy Mier, Clara Darbonne, Alice Blalock and many others.

Three Years In, KPAQ Papermill is Thriving By James Ronald Skains

It is virtually unheard of to have a paper mill shut down, go through a change of ownership, then through a bankruptcy and wind up with a new owner who successfully reopens and operates the paper mill. But that is exactly what happened at the KPAQ mill south of St. Francisville; a roller coaster ride that has stabilized into a win-win situation for all parties. “The paper industry has stabilized somewhat this year, over what was happening a few years back,’’ Bob Boschee, CEO of KPAQ, told the Post / Explorer. “Our major products are linerboard for boxes, and the multiwall heavy paper used for heavy products such as dog food and other heavy products that are that are packaged in paper bags.’’ “We are turning out about 230,000 tons of product annually and consuming over a million tons of chips,’’ Boschee informed the Post / Explorer. “Our work force, as of the

first of May, is 275.’’ KPAQ has a diverse, but crosstrained work force. Some of the current work force was at the St. Francisville paper mill when TEMBEC operated the plant, other workers were hired when West Feliciana Papers operated the plant, and a number of new hires have been made since KPAQ bought the plant in 2010. “We are currently operating only two of the four paper machines in the mill,’’ Boschee, who has been in the paper making industry since 1971, acknowledged. “We have no plans on the drawing board to start up either of the two other machines.’’ Paper making machine #1 was brought on line in April 2010. Machine #2 was brought on line in the summer of 2011. “About 70% of our wood chips come from a chip mill in Gloster, Mississippi and the other 30% we buy from local harvesters,’’ Boschee added in explaining the source of the plants raw material. “We don’t have chipping fa-

cilities on site.’’ When asked about rumors of the short line railroad that once connected the paper mill to Baton Rouge by rail, and all points beyond, Boschee had this to say, “We are doing our due diligence now, and looking closely at the Canadian National owned short line railroad. It would be advantageous to us mostly in outbound shipment of our products. We do some rail shipment of paper now, but we have to truck it to a warehouse in Baton Rouge where our product is put in rail cars.’’ It was an up and down tense scenario for the mill employees, as well as the timber industry that had been supplying chips to the to the mill, for quite some time after TEMBEC shut down the mill. A group of investors set up West Feliciana Partners (WFP), which was able to purchase the property and reopen the mill. After a short time, West Feliciana Partners went through a bankruptcy. The Senior Note Creditor, AMZAK Capital Management, bought the facility out of bankruptcy. That was when the big turnaround occurred at the St. Francisville plant, and it was renamed KPAQ. AMZAK Capital Management is a large venture capital firm located in south Florida. Prior to the investment in the St. Francisville property, AMZAK had invested primarily in telecommunications and high tech companies. KPAQ was their first foray into the papermaking and forest indus-

tries. KPAQ has its own national sales manager, Mike Butler, to spearhead KPAQ in continuing to expand its niche market in the paper industry. Butler, a veteran of the paper making industry like Boschee, joined the KPAQ team in late 2011. Boschee became CEO on January 1, 2012. In discussing the source of energy to operate the mill, Boschee said, “We use a combination of natural gas and black liquor to produce steam to run turbines for some of our power. We do buy some of our electricity from Entergy.’’ Black Liquor is a by-product of the paper making industry that is rich in carbon. At one point, Black Liquor was considered a renewable energy source of power because it came from trees, and paper-making companies received a federal tax credit for using it to produce power and reduce emissions. However, a few years ago Congress terminated the Black Liquor tax credit. This was just another blow to the paper industry that was already fighting off imported paper on the US market. During the few last years, three Paper Mills in the region, one at Natchez, one at Pineville, and the other one at Bastrop were shut down and never re-opened. Perhaps, it is the resiliency, work ethics and “can do” attitude of the people in the Felicianas and Zachary areas that has helped keep the St. Francisville Paper Mill in operation when others have been permanently closed.

Party at Your Place celebrated expansions in their established mobile party business with a Ribbon Cutting ceremony on Tuesday, May 7 at the Zachary Chamber of Commerce. The ceremony was followed by a reception and paint party. Changes to the business include the expansion of mobile parties, launching of new website and The Art Club for children. The club will give children the unique opportunity to work one-onone with the owner, Courtney Yoes, on art projects. Those in attendance were, (left to right): Buddy Lee, Kate MacArthur, Mr. and Mrs. Greg McDougall, Jack Burke, Mayor David Amhrein, Gwen Yoes, Brandy Westmoreland, Margaret Harmon, Lynn Cifreo, Cora Lee, Kinta Castello, Courntey Yoes and her husband Dale, children Lucy and Kerry, Faye Chidester, Majorie Moore, Ionne Poirrier, Kathy Blohowiak, Pam O’Neal, Charmaine Efferson, Kea Warne and Savannah MacArthur. Party at Your Place can be reached at 225-288-3772 or online at www.partyatplacela.com.

Families for Children movement of compassion to be held on May 20 at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church. When a family experiences a situational crisis like a serious illness, domestic violence or homelessness, children suffer disruption along with their parents. Disconnected from family or other support, some parents find themselves temporarily unable to care for their children and have no place to turn for help. Founded in 2005 in Chicago, Safe Families for Children offers a temporary sanctuary in host homes to children whose families are in crisis but who don’t need foster care. As an alternative to Foster Care, Safe Families also offers support services to parents, and in many cases Safe Families volunteers continue on as mentors even after the child is returns home. What’s more, by providing an overwhelmed and resource-limited parent with a safe, temporary place for his or her child without the threat of losing cus-

potential for abuse and neglect. Since Safe Families is a movement of volunteers, participation of the faith community and the community is crucial. People interested in joining are invited to attend an informational meeting on Monday, May 20, 2013, 6:30 pm at First Baptist Church in the Education Building Banquet Hall, 4200 Main Street, Zachary, LA 70791. Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Baton Rouge brought the movement to the Baton Rouge area a little over a year ago at the request of Casey Family Programs. “Understandably, overwhelmed agencies with scarce resources must focus on the most severe crises, leaving many parents hopeless and isolated and children without help in situations of escalating vulnerability,” said Barbara Thompson, Safe Families for Children coordinator. “Those of us working with children and families see this daily.”

Lane Wound Center & Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy recently moved from inside the hospital to this newly renovated medical building, located at 4917 West Park Drive on Lane’s campus directly behind Medical Pharmacy in Zachary. Lane Wound Care’s team of nurses provide advanced therapies for most wounds, such as diabetic, non-healing surgical, traumatic and infected wounds, as well as a variety of ulcers needing wound care. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is used on more serious injuries or compromised wounds, providing 100% pure oxygen in a pressurized chamber (the air we breathe is only 21% oxygen). This high pressure dose of oxygen, known

as hyperbaric oxygen, greatly increases the amount of oxygen delivered to body tissues by the bloodstream. “The Red Stick - Baton Rouge Artists” art show at the Zigler Art Museum, 411 Clara St, Jennings, LA May 25 - June 22.
