The St. Tammany Farmer’s Top 10 stories of 2025
This year’s biggest story isn’t a myth, unfortunately
“Between Scylla and Charybdis” is a saying from Greek mythology that describes having to choose between two equally terrible options. Scylla was imagined to be a giant, six-headed creature that terrorized sailors along the Strait of Messina in the Mediterranean. Charybdis Andrew waited on the side of the pass, Canulette a vast whirlpool that sucked ANDREW’S entire ships and crews into ANGLE oblivion when they strayed too close. Choosing which monster to confront was one of many no-win situations facing Odysseus in Homer’s “The Odyssey” — the epic poem with a narrative similar to what’s being played out right here in St. Tammany Parish today, at least 2,500 years after “The Odyssey” was written. Consider local elected officials to be Odysseus and his crew returning home after the Greeks were victorious in the Trojan War — a fair comparison to Louisiana’s infamous knuckle-busting political campaigns. As they voyage back to Ithaca, they are befallen by a series of trials, one of them having to sail between the Scylla and Charybdis. It was Circe, a sea nymph, who advised Odysseus to confront the Scylla, the logic being it would be better to lose six crew (one to each of her heads) than watch the entire ship be engulfed and drowned by Charybdis. Circe’s advice was correct, but it didn’t come without bloodshed. And that’s where

Unprecedented snow during Winter Storm Enzo in January of 2025 affected all areas of St. Tammany Parish, all but obliterating Mardi Gras flags hanging proudly in Olde Towne Slidell.
2. Record snow blankets St. Tammany After what meteorologists billed as a 100year storm dumped as much as 8 inches of snow in St. Tammany Parish on Jan. 21, residents still were talking about the weather phenomenon three days later as they pulled tarps off their plants, unwrapped exposed pipes and surveyed the wet mess left behind as the final pockets of powder finally melted. Despite the clean-up that was ahead for some residents, most had nothing but rave reviews of the magnificent snow that made much of the Gulf Coast (from Texas through the panhandle of Florida)
look more like a scene from Lake Ontario’s shores in the dead of winter. It was, after all, an extremely odd site — snowdrifts nearly a foot high in Slidell, the Mandeville lakefront a frosty forest of towering oaks swaddled in grey mist, the statue of President Ronald Reagan at the Covington Trailhead looking like a Head and Shoulders shampoo ad, with a couple inches of snow resting on his bronze shoulders. And as far as any weather experts could tell, it was a record snowfall for all of St. Tammany — at least in recently recorded history, said Hannah Lisney, of the National Weather Service’s office in Slidell.

By 7 a.m. on Dec. 20, the inside of a Covington warehouse buzzed with the activity of workers as busy as elves packing boxes with assemblyline precision and joyful cheer. The scene sounds something like what is found at the North Pole. But instead of Santa’s workshop, the warehouse belonged to the Northshore Food Bank, and it was filled with volunteers for the Feeding the Needy Christmas service project. Feeding the Needy is a 23-year Covington community tradition in partnership with the Covington Rotary Club and distributed through the Northshore Food Bank. The 2025 project provided food baskets to almost 1,500 families across St. Tammany and Washington parishes, said Greg Langham, who spearheaded the event for the Covington Rotary. The baskets were filled with a full holiday meal — a turkey and sides, such as mashed potatoes and stuffing, with vegetables, and enough other food — gumbo mix, red beans, rice and chili — to provide up to four additional meals. A fundraiser luncheon held Dec. 9 at St. Paul’s School, along with business sponsorships

To compare, Lisney said some 5 inches were recorded in Folsom in 2017. Before that, in 2008, Mandeville had 2.5 inches. There were also two inches of snow recorded in Slidell in both 1988 and 1993. Lisney said the NWS didn’t have data on snow levels in St. Tammany for either the 1963 or 1895 snowfalls that blanketed New Orleans with what some historians said was a

the real similarity begins for Homer’s “The Odyssey” and the odyssey of St. Tammany Parish’s public agencies. The mythical creatures that populate Homer’s world are very real threats today. They are the difficult choices that government leaders must make when a parish electorate — even if it’s 21% of voters — decided in March against rededicating a portion of a 2% parishwide sales (currently used for drainage and roads) to help pay expenses for the District Attorney’s Office, the judges of the 22nd Judicial District Court and the St. Tammany Parish Justice Center. It was the sixth time in less than a decade that voters shot down a ballot item to fund the criminal justice system, which also includes the parish jail. While that vote alone was a major turning point on the local landscape, it was the fallout from the failed proposition we believe cemented it as St. Tammany Parish’s top story of 2025. The St. Tammany Parish Council and District Attorney Collin Sims already had formed a committee aimed at finding waste and improving the parish’s budget process by the time voters shot down the sales tax rededication by a 52%-48% margin. The Transparency and Resource Accountability Committee was created in response to infighting that began when parish justice system agencies argued they weren’t receiving funding from the parish that is mandated by the state. The committee first turned its attention to the parish’s Mosquito Abatement District and the committee opined that the district hadn’t followed the most cost-effective use of tax dollars in more than one area. The Mosquito Abatement District filed suit, citing numerous problems with the TRAC study. Chief among them, perhaps, was that as district attorney, Sims is the district’s de facto legal representative and his position on the committee was a conflict of interests. The suit was dropped later in the year, but it proved TRAC almost certainly would face contentious battles from other, more large agencies when they came under the committee’s scrutiny. More rifts appeared between parish powerbrokers as the 2026 parish budget came into focus later in the year. The Sheriff’s Office and parish government dispute how much money the parish must pay for medical expenses for inmates at the jail, as well as how much was owed for security detail at the parish courthouse. Sheriff Randy Smith threatened to pull deputies from their posts at the justice center, which led to the parish filing suit. The sides came to a temporary truce in December while attempting to hammer out a deal to keep deputies at the courthouse doors. The 2026 budget had a 30% reduction in finances for the parish jail, as well as the 22nd Judicial District Court judges and the district attorney. Incoming Council Chair Cheryl Tanner said those agencies could see a 50% reduction in funding in 2027. The budget also included steep cuts for funding to the Safe Haven mental health campus and eliminated a cost of living raise for parish employees. Council leaders said the cuts were not easy but will be commonplace without dedicated funding sources for mandated costs. Realizing continued cuts to parish services would be a detriment (if not an outright threat) to the community, representatives from all taxing bodies in the parish convened at the Justice Center on Dec. 18 to, as Sims wrote on his Facebook account, “begin identifying responsible, short & long-term solutions that restore public confidence and ensure essential services are appropriately staffed and funded — without increasing taxes or adding burden to taxpayers.” That almost certainly indicates meaningful cuts are coming to most, if not all, St. Tammany Parish public agencies. And though no one wants to hear it, rest assured that the real cost of any business, any agency, is in its employees — the salaries they make, the benefits they receive. Here’s a guess that most everyone will say cutting public jobs is a last resort. But any responsible audit of a taxing agency will predict where this is headed. It is, after all, what a slim majority of 21% of voters said they wanted last March — do more with less, and start doing it yesterday. And so, like Odysseus, our leaders have a choice. Scylla or Charybdis? Either way, the parish won’t come out of this unscathed.
comparable amount to what the northshore saw last week. It certainly was a beautiful site, the communities glistening in soft white powder that began falling just before daybreak and continued in most places until at least sunset. Children, who didn’t have school all week following the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday on Jan. 20 and four consecutive snow days, built snow figures and had snowball fights. Some brave souls ventured further into the cold, taking their pets for walks on snow-covered sidewalks and others turned inflatable inner tubes into makeshift sleds and were towed down iced-over city streets by four wheelers, trucks and golf carts. Dangerous driving conditions remained a major concern for parish officials and law enforcement all week. Citizens were encouraged to stay off local roads, with most covered in ice for several days as temperatures plunged as low as 12 degrees overnight on Jan. 21 and didn’t get back into the 40s until midday on Jan. 23. A refreeze overnight the same day made getting to work on Jan. 24 a tricky proposition, too. To help offset the hazardous driving conditions, parish offices remained closed after the King holiday and didn’t open until Jan. 24. Most businesses were buttoned up, garbage service was suspended and mail trucks were nowhere in sight. In addition to the usual salting of bridges to help reduce the risk of ice build-up, parish crews repurposed “skid steers” to move snow from area roadways. The heavy equipment is normally used for digging during drainage improvement projects, but every machine that could be used was on parish roads the morning of Jan. 22, clearing St. Tammany’s 1,600 miles of roadway as quickly as possible. Parish President Mike Cooper urged residents to avoid driving during and after the storm, as temperatures continued to plummet each night, creating new sheets of ice over blacktop highways. Parish Spokesperson Michael Vinsanau said the parish didn’t have to close any roads because of the snowstorm, noting that “Mother Nature closed the roads for us.” The state, however, did close some sections of interstate in the Slidell area, including the twin spans over Lake Pontchartrain. As of Jan. 24, travel on most local roads had returned to normal, though bridges remained tricky in spots. The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway didn’t reopen to commuter traffic until Jan. 24.

3. Slidell has three mayors in one year Randy Fandal won a special election Oct. 11 to become Slidell’s mayor, capping a campaign he formally launched in January when former Mayor Greg Cromer announced his resignation. Fandal, the city’s police chief since 2016, will serve the remainder of Cromer’s term, which runs through June 30, 2026. With his election as mayor, Slidell Police CAO Daniel Seuzeneau was named interim chief, also through June. Fandal won 72% of votes cast to Borchert’s 28%. Fandal, 65, is the third police chief to get voted into the mayor’s office since 2002, following Ben Morris and Freddy Drennan. Borchert, 61, was seeking to take another step up in his political history — from district council member to at-large council member to being elected mayor. Cromer announced in January he was resigning as mayor to take a position in Gov. Jeff Landry’s administration. As the at-large council member with the most votes in the previous council election, Borchert became mayor when Cromer stepped down. As he campaigned, Borchert pushed a platform of his experience in city government and running small businesses. He said that Fandal lacked his vision and was a candidate with a longtime law enforcement back-
section, and adopted a tiered library card system that allows parents to choose from which sections of the library their kids can check out materials. The millage passing was a high point in yet another chaotic year for the parish library system, which celebrated its 75th anniversary in 2025. Library Director Kelly Larocca, who’d been in the position since 2018, resigned in September to take a job with the state library system and she has not yet been replaced. The St. Tammany Parish Library Board of Control, tasked with finding her replacement, has been a revolving door itself, with three new members coming aboard in PHOTO BY MATTHEW DOBBINS 2025 and the board president resigning in August, as well.
Randy Fandal and Bill Borchert greet each other during the their race’s first political forum on July 23 in the Slidell Municipal Auditorium. ground but little government or business experience. Fandal countered that his work in law enforcement, which includes a long stint with the Louisiana State Police, required him to run large departments. Running the police department, he said, is essentially an administrative job that includes a lot of the same political interaction as a mayor or city government leader. Voter turnout was 26.4%. That’s lower than the 30% turnout in the 2018 mayor’s race, but not as bad as the candidates had feared during the campaign. Voters will head back to the polls in spring to decide who gets the next full term for mayor, police chief, city council and more.
4. Slidell’s plan to buy North Shore Square mall falters A week after the city pulled the plug on efforts to buy the nearly empty North Shore Square Mall, Slidell officials voted down the special sales taxes they enacted to raise money to pay for a potential mall purchase. Acting as officers of the Northshore Square Economic Development District, the Slidell City Council on Sept. 23 eliminated an additional 1% sales tax at stores and a 2% tax at hotels within the district, which roughly covers the mall site and stores along Northshore Boulevard. The district had adopted the taxes several weeks ago, with the revenue to be used to back bonds that would be sold to cover the purchase of the mall. The council had authorized Mayor Bill Borchert in August to enter into a letter of intent to negotiate with the mall’s owners, Morguard, for the purchase and, more recently, narrowly approved a measure for the city to issue $27.6 million in bonds. Borchert in August had said he and Morguard representatives were looking at a purchase price of around of $12.4 million for the 621,000-square-foot building, which sits on more than 50 acres at a high-profile site on Northshore Boulevard at Interstate 12. But two weeks ago, Borchert announced that the city was backing away from buying the mall, or at least from purchasing the entire mall, because Morguard had already entered into a purchase agreement with a local company for two of the larger former anchor sites at the mall. The city said it would instead let private investors take the lead and support them where it could. The city’s possible purchase of the mall and the enacting of the sales taxes became a divisive issue, amplified by the mayor’s race pitting Borchert against Police Chief Randy Fandal in a special election on Oct. 11. While Borchert campaigned on making bold moves to spark the economy and revitalize tired sites such as the mall, Fandal pushed the city to slow down any purchase, saying that the public had not had an opportunity to properly vet any proposal. The future of the mall, a former regional shopping hub that went largely vacant in recent years, has been a hot topic in Slidell for more than a decade.
5. Sgt. Grant Candies killed The St. Tammany Parish Sheriff’s Office is in mourning after a well-known deputy sheriff who had been named the department’s Deputy of the Year in 2023 was killed early on March 23 during a high-speed police
chase that spanned two parishes. “He was a very outgoing, very proactive deputy,” Sheriff Randy Smith said of 37-year-old Sgt. Grant Candies, who was struck and killed while deploying a spike strip on an Interstate 10 on-ramp at the Oak Harbor exit near Slidell to stop the speeding vehicle. Candies joined the Sheriff’s Office in 2016, after serving in the U.S. Marine Corps. Candies was promoted to sergeant in 2023, the same year he was named deputy of the year for helping save the lives of two people — a hit-andrun victim and someone experiencing an opioid overdose. Candies was also a field training officer, training new deputies. Smith said he was “really liked not only by his co-workers, but by the public he served.” He leaves behind his wife, Courtney, and two children, Bryson and Brenna. In June, authorities said the vehicle’s driver, Adrian Waughtal, 17, and one of the Candies passengers, Mason Paul Eugene Fischer, 17, had been indicted on charges of second-degree murder. Another passenger in the vehicle, Michael Lanier, 18, was indicted with manslaughter. They all pleaded not guilty in an arraignment in July. Under a law adopted last year, 17-year-olds in Louisiana are treated as adults in the criminal justice system. The pursuit began in the early morning of March 23 on Brownswitch Road near Slidell after deputies tried to stop the vehicle for careless operation, authorities said. The Sheriff’s Office also said the vehicle did not have a license plate. The driver refused to stop, starting a highspeed chase into Slidell city limits and onto I-10, where Candies was killed, and eventually ending in New Orleans, where an NOPD officer was injured in what Smith called a “very violent night.” A memorial service for Candies was held April 1 at the Harbor Center near Slidell.
6. Library millage passes, but tumult continues In March, voters passed a 15year, 4.35-mill millage to fund St. Tammany Parish Library operations, with 55% of ballots in favor of the tax that brings in an estimated $13.5 million annually (some 96% of the library system’s budget.) In their pitch to the public, library officials noted that the tax was a reduction over the 5.78-mill tax that expired at the end of 2024 and that the libraries are immensely popular, with more than a million items being checked out and 600,000 people visiting a branch last year. It isn’t clear to what extent voters’ decisions were influenced by the controversy that has engulfed the library system in recent years around minors’ access to materials with LGBTQ+ and sexual themes, but in interviews before the election, free speech advocates and library critics alike pointed to the library’s policies about its collection as a factor in how they planned to vote. Since the controversy about its collection began, the library has moved books that contain sexually explicit material, as defined by Louisiana state law, into the adult

7. Road projects underway As St. Tammany Parish’s population has grown through the decades, so have the number of vehicles on local roads. Some would say the number of new roads, and improvements to older roads, has lagged far behind the pace of growth, however, and traffic is cited consistently among the public’s chief concerns. There was relief on the horizon in 2025, though. The Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development announced late in the year that the third and final phase of expansion to Interstate 12 was complete. That work, between La. 21 and La. 1077, closed a chapter of construction that was years in the making and cost some $170 million, almost all of it federal and state money. Elsewhere, the brand-new La. 3241 continues to open in segments running through eastcentral St. Tammany Parish. The second segment of the $220 million highway was unveiled in June, an 8-mile stretch that runs from La. 36 north to La. 435 near Talisheek, where it connects to the first leg, from La. 435 to Bush, which opened in June 2024. Still to come: The last segment that will finally link the highway to Interstate 12 in the Lacombe area. That final section had been scheduled to go out for bid in December. In April, St. Tammany Parish began construction on the longanticipated bypass road near Mandeville that St. Tammany Parish officials say will connect La. 1088 to U.S. 190, improve access to Pelican Park and ease traffic congestion in the area. Coming in at $34 million, the divided two-lane, 3.5-mile road was given a name by public vote this summer – Adrien Rouquette Parkway A multi-use path for bikers and pedestrians will run parallel to the bypass and connect to the Tammany Trace bike trail. Engineering work on the project started about 10 years ago and much of the land was in private hands and had to be purchased. And as 2025 drew to a close, Covington officials said the first of two new spans over the Bogue Falaya River near Claiborne Hill was near completion. Improvements to U.S. 190 from I-12 to the river were made in recent years, which sped up traffic, only to arrive at a bottleneck at the Bogue Falaya. The overpasses are expected to further ease congestion in the heavily traveled area, with additional road improvements north of the river on the books in coming years.
8. Amazon opens in Slidell Slidell’s $40 million Amazon delivery center quietly went online this summer with plans to increase the volume of packages, and number of jobs, at the facility in the coming weeks and months, an Amazon representative said. “We’ve been shipping to customers as of this week,” Amazon spokesperson Daniel Martin said on Aug. 22. He said the first packages were delivered Aug. 20. The company began hiring people at the 140,000-square-foot center on Town Center Parkway near Old Spanish Trail in July. It’s expected to be staffed by 100-200 workers, the company has said previously. The opening comes several years after the company announced in 2021 that it would build the center in Slidell. The initial opening was targeted for 2022, but the company pushed

STARC
Continued from page 1A day. “I fell in love with all of them and felt a special connection, whether they knew it or not.” That was evident on a recent Monday as bus after bus pulled up to Slidell Little Theatre and about 100 clients from STARC’s day programs in Slidell and Mandeville arrived for what STARC Executive Director Mark Baham says is the most highly anticipated event of the year. Clients were clearly excited as they waited in line to take photos with Santa before entering the auditorium, guided by Sand and other volunteers dressed as elves and other holiday characters. They weren’t the only ones feeling the holiday cheer. The cast, many of whom have participated for years, were in high spirits too. “If you weren’t in the Christmas spirit before, this will put you in the Christmas spirit,” said Mark Abney, clad in a red sequined jacket as he high-fived the arrivals. Interacting with the audience is the highlight, according to Don Redman, whose strong man routine gave way to hilarity as STARC client Hank Holliday joined in the bit and outperformed him by easily lifting a prop barbell. “It certainly puts the joy in the season for me … their pure belief,” he said. “They’ll ask if you can be their friend. It’s just pure joy. It’s unfiltered.” That connection between audience and performer is how what began as an auction item for the American Heart Association more than two decades ago became a beloved tradition, according to Grace Marshall, who started the event. Marshall, a seasoned actress and director, was on the board of SLT when she was asked by Kathy Jones to come up with “something unique” for the auction.

The STARC Christmas Pageant drew a most enthusiastic audience. “There were things like helicopter rides, lunch with the governor, things like that,” Marshall recalled. “I came up with a play reading in your home. … Kathy wound up purchasing that package for $250.” She told Marshall she wanted to give the reading to STARC, and a group of actors put on a play about a dragon that couldn’t spit fire. “It turned out to be way more moving than we expected. We invited STARC and their families. It was just incredible,” Marshall said. When STARC presented SLT with a poster at the theater’s annual awards show, Marshall said she made a bold promise. “I’m not dramatic or anything,” she said with a laugh. “I said, ‘As long as there is breath in my body, this will be an annual show.’ ” She and others have made good on that commitment, with a few interruptions, most notably during the pandemic. At first, the group did scripted shows. “Then we learned our audience and our audience learned us,” Marshall said. “They could identify the good guy, they could identify the bad guy, but we found if we interwove music, we could hold them.”

David and Mary Lee Jacobs get the crowd excited for the next act.
STARC vocalist Matthew Luke let’s out the Hey! — with feeling — in a rendition of crowd favorite ‘Jingle Bells.’ That’s how the show morphed into a variety show, with musicians, like Don Vappie, who is a frequent participant. “Quite often (the format) was a result of a pool party at my house,” Marshall said. The show this year featured Elvis, always a crowd favorite, and slapstick version of the 12 Days of Christmas that had STARC clients and their helpers howling with laughter. “You can’t make a mistake in this show,” Marshall said. “It’s easy as pie. … You can’t miss with STARC. They are going to love it, they are go-
ing to laugh.” Over the years, cast members have grown to recognize the regulars and to look for them — and miss them if they are not there. But Christine Barnhill, who directed this year’s production, said there were quite a few first-time audience members, based on the hands that went up when she asked. “We all, at least once a year, have a moment somewhere to think how blessed we are,” Marshall said. Long-time participant David Jacobs agreed. “This is my Christmas.”

Continued from page 1A and individual donations, raised $75,000 for the event, Langham said. John Baldwin, a long-standing Rotarian and one of the original organizers of the event, watched in awe as forklifts carried full boxes of food to trucks and vans waiting for delivery, amazed at how much the project has grown. “Our first year, we serviced 65 families, but word spread and by the next year, we had already doubled. It grew every year after that,” he said. Baldwin and his friend, Craig Babylon, enlisted the help of the Covington Rotary Club and St. Paul’s from the project’s inception. By 2019, the delivery-day operation had nearly outgrown the St. Paul’s cafeteria, so the staging moved to the Northshore Food Bank warehouse. Churches and smaller food banks from throughout the Covington area, Franklinton, Bogalusa and Slidell brought boxes back to their congregations and those families that they serve. Some boxes were handdelivered, too, volunteers delivered boxes straight to their door. “People don’t always know that the food is available, so we bring it to them,” said Alvaro Mira of the Psalm 121 Foundation, which has been involved with Feeding the Needy for the past 17 years. Beverly Cooke, of the Washington Parish Food Bank, took 50 boxes to families and seniors. “This is such a huge blessing for so many,” she said. The Rev. Larry Lucas of Faith Church in Franklinton, agreed. “This is the true meaning of joy and peace at Christmas — serving as the hands and feet of Christ,” he said.

Covington’s Ashley Culotta brought her daughter, Emma Bagley, 11, along with her. It was their first time participating, but they said it would not be the last. Colleen Brunet, also of Covington, said she was surprised to see packing in full swing when she arrived at the warehouse shortly after 7 a.m. “So many people are hurting today. It’s a wonderful thing to see so many people here to help,” she said. Volunteers came from across the parish and included all ages. St. Paul’s students Luke Greiner, Josh Casey and Reece Pecoraro said they knew getting up and out early was for a worthy cause. “I heard that help was needed and I wanted to be here. ...

Mandeville’s water rates are back on the table BY KIM CHATELAIN
Contributing writer
The new water and sewer rate structure that has raised rates and the ire of some Mandeville residents when it kicked in this fall may be altered by the City Council in coming months. The council dedicated more than 90 minutes of its Dec. 18 meeting to a discussion of the new rates that were implemented to offset an estimated 7% financial shortfall in the city’s water system. While the council took no action, members indicated they were open to revisiting the issue, perhaps once more data is gathered on the new rate structure’s impact on both the city budget and the pocketbooks of residents. “It needs Zuckerman to be looked at, the question is when,” Council Chairman Jason Zuckerman said. “I have no doubt in my mind we’re going to have to make some adjustments.” A year ago, the council voted unanimously to implement a new water and sewer rate structure based on a study by the Manchac Consulting Group. The complex, tier-based rate structure offered by the consultant uses the amount of water used per month by individual cus-
tomers to determine bills. Rates are much higher for those who use the most water, such as people with swimming pools and irrigation systems. Some people in the city who use very little water have seen a slight decrease in rates. For more than a decade, the city has used money from its general fund to subsidize the cost of operating the municipal water system. The result was some of the lowest water rates in the region, officials said. Those subsidies run afoul of regulations of the Louisiana Water Sector Program, which provides grant money to local water systems for infrastructure improvements. But to receive some $2.2 million from the program, Mandeville’s water system must be self-sustaining, meaning operating revenues must match expenditures. The Manchac study and resulting rate structure recommendation was design to do that. But when September water bills calculated under the new structure arrived, some residents reacted to huge increases. Officials were bombarded with complaints from residents who said bills more than doubled. Councilman Scott Discon asked that the water bill issue be placed on the Dec. 18 council agenda for discussion. “The common conversation is that it’s (new rate structure) unpredictable, it’s high and it doesn’t make
sense,” Discon said. “Certain groups feel like they’re taking a hit.” Councilman Kevin Vogeltanz went deep into the weeds on the issue, explaining in detail how the city sewer usage collections in prior years contributed to the confusion over higher rates. Council members also said they were led to believe that overall water and sewer rates would climb only about $10 a month for most residents under the new, highlycomplex structure. Zukerman said despite complaints over higher bills, it remains unclear at this point if the new rate structure has raised enough revenues to match the water system’s expenses. “Is it doing what it’s designed to do, and is it fair in its implementation?” he asked. Several residents appeared before the council to weigh in on the issues. David “Doc” Mancina said the Manchac rate study indicated the need for a 7% increase in revenue to make the water and sewer system self-sustaining while offering a simpler method to meet that need. “We are making this so complicated,” said Mancina, who has been a CPA for over 40 years. “Just read the freaking report. We have a study that says lift the water rates 7%. “Just take the old rate and multiply it by 7%. Let’s make this simple.”
Abita Council approves $12.5M budget BY KIM CHATELAIN
Contributing writer
The Abita Springs Town Council has approved a roughly $12.5 million budget for 2026 despite opposition from two of its members. At its final meeting of 2025, the council voted 3-2 on the spending plan, with members E.J. Boudreaux and Stephen Saussy opposing. The newly approved budget takes effect Jan. 1. During a public hearing at the beginning of the Dec. 17 meeting to discuss the budget, Boudreaux and Saussy expressed their reservations. Boudreaux said he didn’t feel comfortable voting for the budget because of the yet-to-be-determined cost of addressing a mechanical problem with the town’s primary water well. The budget does not allocate money for repairs, he said. Saussy argued that the
town has been “misappropriating” dedicated money from a tax imposed in 1983. The 1% voter-approved tax is supposed to be divided equally between the police department and the general fund, which has not been the case in recent years, Saussy said, with more than half of the money from the tax diverted to the general fund. He said it’s incumbent upon the town to pay back the money in order to adhere to the mandate approved by voters years ago. Board member Eric Templet called Saussy’s position a “gross misrepresentation” of what transpired, noting that the use of the tax revenue in past years has nothing to do with the 2026 budget. Templet was joined by board members Pat Patterson and Regan Contois in voting in favor of the budget ordinance. Large line items in the 2026 include $866,140 in general
fund expenditures, $349,860 in police expenditures, $2.65 million in utility fund costs; and $7.1 million in capital project expenditures. Strife among board members over the budget matters is nothing new in Abita Springs. In December of 2024, the board could not reach a consensus on the 2025 budget and failed to approve one until three months into the new year. The council sought input from the state Legislative Auditor’s Office to better navigate the budgeting process. When the 2025 budget was finally approved in April, the board’s vote was 3-2 with Saussy and Boudreaux in opposition. The heightened scrutiny of the town’s financial practices stems in part from revelations that two former town employees embezzled public funds for their personal use between 2019 and 2023.
Slidell government gets another good audit BY KIM CHATELAIN
Contributing writer
The Slidell municipal government has received what could be construed as an A-plus report card from its private financial auditor. Ford duQuesnay, a senior manager at Ericksen Krentel CPAs and Consultants, appeared before the City Council on Dec. 16 to deliver the firm’s audit presentation for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The audit declared that there are no significant deficiencies and no material weaknesses in the city’s finances, duQuesnay said. “All the internal controls seem to be in place, and the city is in compliance with
everything we looked at,” duQuesnay told the council. Slidell’s revenues for the fiscal year by $4.54 million from the previous year, a 6.2% increase; the audit the revenues totaled $77.39 million; expenses rose by $4.31 million to $66.84 million, the audit found. DuQuesnay said operating grants fell considerably, down $1.72 million or 23% from the previous year, due mainly to expiring federal COVID awards. “Most governments are seeing a similar reduction in grants,” he said. “So you’re back to the normal level of grants you would generally get.” Council member Kenny Tamborella, a member of
the council’s finance committee, thanked Finance Director Blair Ellinwood and members of her department for keeping city finances in proper order. “Blair and her team do this annually for us, and they continue to give us such a great report back from our financial auditors,” he said. “This keeps us with that triple-A bond rating, which continues to allow us to do the things we do in this city.” Also Tuesday night, Nick DiSanti was reappointed by his colleagues to a new sixmonth term as president of the nine-member council. Council member Trey Brownfield was reappointed to the council’s vice president post.

9. Madisonville shines in baseball spotlight Kade Anderson is going from the Tchefuncte River to Puget Sound. The Madisonville resident and LSU product was selected No. 3 overall by the Seattle Mariners in the Major League Baseball Draft on July 13. Many mock drafts had the 21-year-old lefthander going to the Washington Nationals with the first overall pick. Still, the Mariners made Anderson the highest-drafted player from St. Tammany Parish ever chosen in any professional sport. He’s also the fourth-highest drafted player in LSU history. Two LSU pitchers had been taken with the No. 1 pick overall previously (Ben McDonald, of Denham Springs, in 1989 and California native Paul Skenes in 2023.) Outfielder Dylan Crews was picked second, also in 2023. Reared on the ballfields of Coquille Park, Anderson played high school baseball at St. Paul’s, but underwent Tommy John surgery his junior season. He went to LSU and was brought along slowly as a freshman, pitching just 381⁄3 innings, but recording 59 strikeouts. As a sophomore, Anderson authored one of the greatest pitching seasons in LSU history, striking out 180 batters in 119 innings (only Skenes and McDonald had more in one season for the Tigers) and helping lead the Tigers to the 2025 national cham-
pionship. Anderson signed a rookie contract with Seattle that included a signing bonus worth approximately $8.8 million, reported to be the seventh-largest bonus in MLB history. Had Washington selected Anderson with the top pick, he likely would be playing soon for fellow Madisonville native Blake Butera – a Mandeville High graduate who was named the Nationals’ manager on Oct. 31. Butera, 33, is the youngest skipper in Major League Baseball since 1972. Butera was a four-year letterman and two-time captain at Mandeville High, hitting .435 with eight home runs and 48 RBIs as a senior to earn All-State and AllDistrict honors. After playing four seasons at Boston College, he was drafted by Tampa Bay in the 35th round of the 2015 MLB Draft, and he played parts of two seasons as an infielder in its farm system. Butera became the youngest manager in Minor League Baseball in 2018 when he was hired by Hudson Valley at age 25. He went on to be named the 2021 and ’22 Carolina League Manager of the Year, winning championships both seasons. As manager, his teams were 258-144. Most recently, he served as senior director of player development in the Rays organization, where he was Tampa Bay’s farm director and was in charge of its entire player development process.

opportunity for me professionally.” Masingill said he would leave St. Tammany Corporation in August but be involved in the St. Tammany EDC’s transition to a new leader in the meantime. In a news release, Joan Coffman, the president of the St. Tammany EDC’s board, said the board will create a committee to conduct a national search for Masingill’s replacement. Masingill said he also would be involved in that process. Masingill arrived in Louisiana in 2018 when the then St. Tammany Economic Development District hired him to push the parish’s economic development efforts. At the time he was hired in St. Tammany, Masingill had most recently been co-chairman of the Delta Regional Authority, based in Arkansas, and had previously worked as director and policy advisor for former Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe. Masingill said St. Tammany EDC’s efforts since 2018 have led to nearly $300 million in new or expanded businesses and around 2,300 jobs. As the face of the parish’s revitalized economic development push, Masingill often spoke out at contentious public meetings, urging elected officials to back projects ranging from a proposed casino in Slidell to a plan to create a logistics corridor along Interstate 12. That support sometimes earned him arrows from some residents wary of St. Tammany’s rapid growth. Masingill countered that St. Tammany no longer was a bedroom community to New Orleans and with a population nearing 300,000 people, couldn’t just “stop” the momentum it had gained as a metropolitan area of its own. Russell Richardson was named the St. Tammany EDC’s president and chief executive officer on Aug. 5. He most recently was senior vice president of business development at the Baton Rouge Area Chamber.
Chris Masingill, who over the past seven years has become the public face of St. Tammany Parish’s revamped push to land new business, is leaving his post as CEO of the St. Tammany Economic Development Corporation for a similar position in central Louisiana. Masingill will become the president and CEO of Louisiana Central, a 10-parish regional economic development group based in Alexandria. “It’s bittersweet,” Masingill said in an interview. “I Stories by Bob Warren, love St. Tammany and the Willie Swett & Andrew northshore.

Pearl River proposes budget, OKs splash pad upgrade BY JIM DERRY
Contributing writer The Pearl River Town Council will consider a $7.9 million budget for 2026, which is nearly twice the amount it passed just four years ago. Mayor Joe Lee said the proposal includes several projects the town has needed to do “for some time,” including work on streets and
upgrades to sewer lines. A little more than a quarter of the budget — $2.24 million — is designated for police, while $2.04 million will go to the streets department. The numbers were announced at the Dec. 16 meeting and likely will be approved Jan. 20. In other matters, Lee said he is hopeful the town’s popular, but dated, splash pad will be repaired, refur-
bished and open for business by mid- to late spring. “Our old splash pad was jam-packed everyday,” Lee said. “There’s probably more excitement over this than anything else we have ever done in this town. Lee said it will take about two months to get all the equipment needed. That will be followed by another six to eight weeks of construction.

FROM THE FILES OF THE FARMER 25 years ago Southeastern Louisiana University, through a $1.8 million allotment from the U.S. Congress, will train teachers across the country through the internet. The allotment bill was sponsored by U.S. Rep. David Vitter. “I am thrilled that my colleagues recognize the proven success of Southeastern Louisiana University in training teachers to educate our children,” Vitter said. The Alternate Certification Project, administered by the university’s College of Education, is the first teachers preparation program in the state to offer all professional education courses required for certification via the Internet. The program was funded initially by a grant from the state Board of Regents. The success of that program led SLU President Sally Clausen to seek federal support for expanding the project nationwide. “This appropriation will allow Southeastern Louisiana University to address the emerging teacher shortage in Louisiana and the country,” Clausen said.

Covington’s LLOG sells for $3.2 billion BY ANTHONY MCAULEY Staff writer
A major British energy producer has agreed to buy Covington-based LLOG Exploration Co. in a $3.2 billion deal that brings one of the Gulf of Mexico’s most prominent privately held oil operators under foreign ownership and cements Louisiana’s role as a hub for deepwater energy expertise. London-headquartered Harbour Energy said Dec. 22 it will acquire LLOG from its owners in a transaction combining $2.7 billion in cash and $500 million in Harbour shares. The deal, expected to close in the first quarter of 2026 pending regulatory approvals, marks Harbour’s entry into the U.S. Gulf of Mexico and makes LLOG the foundation of its new American business unit. LLOG, founded in 1977 and headquartered in Covington, is widely regarded as one of the most successful deepwater exploration and production companies operating in federal waters off Louisiana. The company has been a prolific developer of deepwater oil fields over the past two decades. Under the agreement, LLOG will continue operating with its existing name and leadership team, and with its Covington headquarters remaining intact. Chief Executive Philip LeJeune is expected to continue leading the company following the sale. “We are proud to build on LLOG’s strong heritage in the Gulf,” Harbour CEO Linda Cook said in a statement, adding that the company plans to preserve the LLOG name to leverage its “history and reputation” in the region. The acquisition gives Harbour control of LLOG’s portfolio of producing and development-stage deepwater oil assets, including major fields such as Who Dat, Buckskin and the recently started Leon-Castile project. Those assets are concentrated in the Mississippi Canyon and Keathley Canyon areas of the Gulf.
Oil-heavy leases LLOG produces roughly 34,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day and holds interests in more than 80 offshore leases, according to Harbour. The company’s reserves are heavily weighted toward oil, a profile that Harbour said improves its margins and extends the life of its global production base. For southeast Louisiana, the deal underscores the enduring economic importance of offshore energy even as the industry consolidates and global players seek scale. While drilling activity in the Gulf has fluctuated over the years, companies like LLOG have continued to invest in complex deepwater projects that rely on specialized talent concentrated in the region. LLOG has drilled more than 300 wells in the Gulf over its five decades of operation and has been credited with a significant share of deepwater discoveries since 2014. Its technical expertise in ultra-deep formations has made it a sought-after operator and partner.
A visionary founder LLOG was founded by Gerald “Jerry” Boelte, a New Orleans native and LSUtrained petroleum engineer who built the privately held company into one of the Gulf of Mexico’s most respected deepwater operators. Boelte, who died last year at age 77, was widely regarded as a visionary who believed smaller, technically focused companies could compete successfully with industry giants in complex offshore environments. Under Boelte’s leadership, LLOG gained a reputation for nimble decisionmaking and disciplined risk-taking. The company expanded aggressively in areas such as the Mississippi Canyon, acquiring assets others abandoned after the 2010 BP oil spill and the temporary federal drilling moratorium. Energy analysts and industry peers have credited Boelte’s approach with helping LLOG
thrive as a well-financed, operationally sophisticated player in one of the world’s most challenging offshore basins. LeJeune said joining Harbour gives LLOG access to greater financial resources while allowing it to maintain its operational culture. “We remain dedicated to maintaining the same high ethical and operational standards that have guided us for the past 48 years,” he said in a statement. For Harbour, the acquisition represents a strategic expansion into a politically stable, infrastructure-rich offshore basin at a time when many international oil companies are narrowing their portfolios. The company already operates in Europe, Latin America and North Africa and produces more than 450,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day globally. Harbour said LLOG’s assets are expected to increase its overall production and cash flow over time, though the company emphasized that the transaction will not close until early next year. Financing for the cash portion of the deal will include new loans as well as existing liquidity. LLOG’s owners will receive Harbour shares equivalent to an 11% stake in the combined company, subject to certain lock-up restrictions. While the transaction is subject to federal regulatory review, no major obstacles are expected.
Major St. Tammany employer LLOG is the 10th largest employer in the oil and gas sector in St. Tammany per JobsEQ, said Kristin Durand, communications director for St. Tammany Economic Development Corporation. The company employed 125 people as of October of this year, its website indicates. There are 45 companies in the oil and gas sector operating in St. Tammany, representing nearly 2,000 jobs, Durand said. Reporters Bob Warren and reporter Willie Swett contributed to this report.

Retiree becomes a friend to local conservation BY LISA VON EBERSTEIN Contributing writer
When volunteers arrive for Service Saturday at Big Branch Marsh National Wildlife Refuge in Lacombe, they are greeted by a retired school principal whose calm manner and steady leadership turn a few hours of outdoor work into hands-on conservation. Douglas Ramagos, board member of Friends of Louisiana Wildlife Refuges, plays a key role as a volunteer partner in supervising work groups on Service Saturdays, which are hosted by Friends and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The monthly event is dedicated to preserving and protecting the refuge, and Ramagos leads volunteer training for safety and trail and garden maintenance methods. “I like working outdoors so people who drive in have a nice view of the national wildlife refuge,” the Mandeville resident said. Under his direction, volunteers trim, mulch and clean, and along the way, they may learn from Ramagos about times past, such as priests being buried there near the former seminary grounds. “There’s a lot of history

associated with that place,” he said. “The azaleas and camellias go all the way back to Gov. (Richard) Leche.” The grounds include historic gardens that come alive in winter, with camellias and azaleas highlights of the season. Volunteering offers a chance for the community to connect with the natural landscape, and volunteers are critical. Ramagos said the refuge is not the same as a national park, and more help is needed to keep it running smoothly. “Doug is just very personable. He’s got a good rapport with community members,” said Ranger Rebecca “Becky” Larkins,
visitor services manager for the Bayou Lacombe Visitor Center, headquarters for the Southeast Louisiana National Wildlife Refuges Complex. “He’s just so approachable, and he makes everybody feel at ease.” Although typically held the first Saturday of each month from 8 to 11 a.m., the next Service Saturday is shifting to Jan. 10 due to the holidays. January’s event will focus on removing Christmas decorations from the visitor center grounds and storing them for next Christmas season, Larkins said. Volunteers also will perform trail maintenance to prepare the grounds for the Bayou Gardens Open House on Feb. 21, an annual event that features local exhibitors and a native plant sale. The refuge, at 61389 La. 434 in Lacombe, welcomes volunteers of all ages, but children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult. Groundskeeping tools and equipment are available, and the Friends organization provides a light breakfast. All should wear closedtoe shoes and outdoor clothing. To register, email Larkins at rebecca_larkins@fws. gov.
Southeastern reaccredited, Wainwright elected to board Staff report
Southeastern Louisiana University, the state’s third largest public university with strong ties to St. Tammany and the northshore, recently received reaffirmation of its accreditation from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges. Additionally, Southeastern President William Wainwright has been elected to serve on the accreditation group’s board of trustees. Both came during the most recent meeting of the Southern Association of Colleges organization in Nashville. The accrediting group elects 77 board members to guide its work and to imple-
ment the accreditation process, with members serving a three-year term. The SACSCOC Board governs the accreditation process for colleges in the South, making final decisions on granting, denying, or r e m o v i n g Wainwright accreditation based on compliance with quality standards, reviewing institutions seeking membership or reaffirmation, approving SACSCOC policies, and electing leaders for the organization. Southeastern’s accreditation now extends through
2035. The reaffirmation of institutional accreditation is a multiyear process, including a comprehensive self-study and an on-site review that is required every 10 years and touches on all aspects of Southeastern’s academic programs, services and facilities. “The decision by SACSCOC’s Board of Trustees to reaffirm our accreditation was also accompanied by a final report that contained no findings or recommendations,” Wainwright said. “To have our accreditation reaffirmed with no areas of concern is a reflection of the quality of a Southeastern degree, our exceptional faculty and staff, and our commitment to student success.”

NPAS concerts in Abita Springs Happy Heart Dancers close out year will celebrate Broadway tunes Staff report To help start off the new year with music in St. Tammany Parish, the Northlake Performing Arts Society will give two concerts Jan. 24 & 25 that feature songs from some of the country’s most celebrated Broadway musicals. The “On Broadway” performances will take place in the Abita Springs Town Hall at 22161 Level St., home of the Abita Springs Opry and
host to regular Cajun dance bands, special Northshore Traditional Music Society events and more. In concert, the group will sing medleys and individual songs from musicals that have enchanted and excited audiences over the decades, including “South Pacific,” “West Side Story,” “Hamilton,” “Wicked,” “Fiddler on the Roof” and “The Lion King.” The NPAS singers are mostly from St. Tammany

Parading starts at 3 p.m. in the 300 block of Jackson Street at the harbor, with the festival from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. Participation is free, and a $10 wristband provides access to the food and drinks.

LPO to play at the Fuhrmann Auditorium in Covington BY MARGARET ALBERT Contributing writer
The north shore is getting its cultural year off to an impressive start with a visit from the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra on Jan. 7 at the Fuhrmann Auditorium in Covington. The 90-minute program, beginning at 7:30 p.m., will be conducted by Maestro Matthew Kraemer, the Adelaide Wisdom Benjamin Music Director and primary conductor of the orchestra. Doors open at 6 p.m. In his third year with the LPO, Kraemer is happily settled in Jefferson Parish with his wife and two sons. He is also proud to conduct the only full-time, musician-governed orchestra in the United States.
“I am privileged to be working with such an engaged and talented group of musicians,” he said. When asked about the orchestra’s satellite performances, and how they differ from those in the orchestra’s New Orleans home at the Orpheum Theater, he said most of the venues where the orchestra gives their away performances are smaller than the Orpheum. “So the 40-piece chamber group performs these (away) concerts,” he said, which allows the musicians to hear one another. “The sheer volume of the full orchestra would overpower the smaller venues. It also affords the audience a more intimate musical experience with the orchestra.” Kraemer said he is very impressed with north shore audiences for their support, in-
terest and participation in the presentations he gives immediately preceding the concert. “On the northshore, I almost always have 40 to 50 participants. They ask good questions. I wish all our audiences had that level of interest,” he said. Evan Conroy is an LPO member living in Mandeville. As a bass trombone player, he isn’t playing this particular concert since the selections are from the Viennese period, which do not include his instrument in the orchestrations. “Living in Mandeville is convenient, since I teach in Baton Rouge at Southern University, and Loyola and Tulane in New Orleans,” said Conroy, who uses the commute to decompress. “For the first two years here, I lived in the Bywater. When my wife moved here, we relocated to the northshore. We’re
more neighborhood, suburban lifestyle type people, and Mandeville is a good fit for us,” he added. When the orchestra performs concerts at the Fuhrmann, Conroy says orchestra personnel always remark at the beauty of the landscape. Conroy has discovered that there is a great deal of live music happening on the north shore. He encourages music lovers to check it out, and of course, to keep coming to the LPO performances. The program in Covington will include the music of: Johann Strauss Jr. (1825-1899), Perpetuum Mobile, (Perpetual Motion) Opus 257; Franz Schrecker (1878-1934), Kammersymphonie (Chamber Symphony); and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756-1791), Symphony No. 39 in E-flat major, K. 543.

State champion coach Tullis taking Mandeville position
PHOTO BY MATT DOBBINS
Danny Tullis was named the next Mandeville volleyball coach after winning back-to-back Division I state titles at Slidell.
Volleyball coach leaving Slidell to work with daughter BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer
Danny Tullis is quick to talk about the importance of three things in his life: God, family and volleyball. He has coached his two daughters, Ali and Ansley, at Pope John Paul II, while his son, Collin, is a standout player at the club level. In his past three seasons at Slidell, the 53-yearold amassed a 110-17 record, including back-toback titles. He guided Slidell to uncharted success, but now the eight-time state champion is on the move again. Tullis will take over the Mandeville volleyball program from Rachel Schulingkamp, who stepped down after this past season. The move will reunite Tullis with Ansley, who is an assistant coach for the Skippers. “My family has been talking about moving for a while, and with my daughter being over there, I thought I could come over and teach PE with her. So, I’ll get the chance to work with her all day in the classroom and after school. Then my other daughter (Ali) will be closer to Southeastern, so she can finish up. It just makes sense for us to move this way,” Tullis said. “From a volleyball standpoint, it’s another challenge. I’m always interested in whether I can do this or that. I think Mandeville has a good base of kids who play club (ball) and who have played for a long time. It’ll be interesting to see what we can do there.” Tullis boasts a 793-179 career record and has won a total of eight state titles at three schools (Fontainebleau, Pope John Paul II and Slidell). “I think it is going to be a new, fun experience,” Tullis said. “My family is everything to me, and even though Ali was assisting me at Slidell, she wasn’t working with me at the school. So, it’s just a little bit different. It felt like it was a good move for my family.” Ali will also serve as an assistant, as will Rachel Battistella, who has been with Tullis at both PJP II and Slidell. Collin Tullis will be the team manager. “We try to make it a family affair everywhere that we go,” Tullis said. His first coaching job was at Northshore as an assistant coach under Sandy Blanchard for one season. Then, he was the head coach at Salmen for six years. He moved to Fontainebleau for a seven-year run that included a state title in

SENIORS ROAR Covington players set the tone as the North earns 28-20 victory at the LFCA Northshore All-Star game
BY TREASURE WASHINGTON Contributing writer
Four Covington High School seniors made one final impact in the navy and gold. Amari Smith started off the Louisiana Football Coaches Association Northshore All-Star Game with a 68yard catch-and-run touchdown off a flea flicker for the North All-Stars and finished it with a game-high 120 receiving yards. Jake Pompa, a Wisconsinite who compiled seven touchdowns for the Lions last fall, was also in on the trick play and contributed to a 115yard rushing performance for the North. Mason Cryer Jr. had another explosive play down the field while
Termarkus Scott Jr. made some of the game’s biggest defensive plays with two sacks inside the final four minutes. “Those are pretty good athletes,” Scott said regarding his teammates. “They always show up when their names are called. It wasn’t an issue for them to get after it (on Saturday).” The North mostly kept its foot on the gas against the South, holding a 28-0 lead well into the third quarter. But the South continuously marched down the field with 20 unanswered points. Despite the South’s near-comeback, the North held on for the 28-20 victory on Dec. 20 at SLU’s Strawberry Stadium. “I think we got a little bit tired at
the end, but that happens in these games because you’re limited with numbers,” North defensive coordinator and Covington head coach Greg Salter said. “I think we were playing defense with about 14 or 15 guys that were playing 11 spots. I thought throughout the game they battled and played physical, created some turnovers, and that’s what you want.” The four Lions in the All-Star Game continued to cherish the time on the sidelines with their coach. Covington ended 2025 on a three-game slide but sill impressed with its fourth winning campaign over the past seven seasons. After missing the first two games

Third-quarter surge powers St. Paul’s win over Salmen BY JOSEPH HALM Staff writer
The scene was NBA official. The Wolves trailed Salmen by nine points midway through the third quarter as St. Paul’s called a timeout. As the Wolves’ players walked across the Pelicans logo to their bench at the Smoothie King Center, coach Monty Fontenot told his players to settle down and focus on hitting shots and turning up the defensive pressure. It worked wonders as St. Paul’s ended the quarter on a 15-2 run en route to a 59-47 victory. “We finally started to hit our shots, and we got a little hot from 3,” said St. Paul’s junior STAFF PHOTO BY JOSEPH HALM Brady Pierson, who finished with 10 points. “We didn’t give up as many turnovers in the Salmen’s Jayvin Polvent is guarded by St. Paul’s Ethan Ballard during a game at the second half. That’s been the key for us all Smoothie King Center on Dec. 22. season: limiting our turnovers.”
Fontenot agreed: “We just started making some plays. We made three 3-pointers after the timeout, which helps a lot. We couldn’t make any layups early. We were able to just lock down and play some really good defense. And we limited our turnovers. When you do all the little things right, it gives you a chance to win the game.” The Wolves grew the lead to double digits early in the fourth quarter, and Salmen was never able to cut it below six points the rest of the way. Junior Ethan Ballard (15 points) and senior Carson Michel (11 points) rounded out the double-digit scorers for the Wolves (7-5). While St. Paul’s has won six of their last eight games, including a last-second win over Rummel on Dec. 19, Wolves’ players and coaches were just as excited to go into

TULLIS
Continued from page 1B 2011. Then came the move to Pope John Paul II in 2013 that resulted in five state titles from 2014-19 — a period in which the Jaguars were consistently ranked among the top prep teams in the nation. Slidell offered solace to Tullis during his greatest adversity as he joined the Tigers after the 2022 season, which was marred by the death of his oldest son, Christian, the night before the 2022 state championship match. Tullis credited Slidell principal George Herdliska for supporting him this past season, saying the entire school played an important role in winning a second straight state title. “Me leaving has absolutely nothing to do with Coach Herdliska. He was amazing to me. He did everything that I could ask for. It just came down to the fact that I wanted to work with my daughter,” Tullis said. Mandeville will be his third stop in the past five years, but Tullis said that is not a reflection on any of those schools. “I’m not saying there’s not value in staying in the same place for your entire coaching career, but I have
enjoyed everywhere I have been,” Tullis said. “I think change is refreshing and kind of rejuvenates you a little bit. My daughter is at Mandeville, so it’s just a special opportunity for me and my family.” Tullis will finish out the school year teaching PE at Slidell before moving to Mandeville. He said he will continue to coach club volleyball at WD Nation. Mandeville principal Christian Monson said the choice to hire Tullis was easy. “We’re excited to announce Danny Tullis as the next volleyball coach,” Monson said. “Rachel Schulingkamp has done a great job, but she approached me right as the season ended and made a decision that was best for her family with three small kids. We hired Ansley Tullis to be an assistant coach this past season, and Danny’s desire to coach with his daughter is a big plus for him. “We look forward to building a championship-caliber program and are excited for our future Skippers.” Mandeville won its lone state title in 2005, and the Skippers were state runners-up in 2004, 2006 and 2015. The last time they qualified for the state tournament in Lafayette was in 2022.
Slidell seventh-year boys basketball coach Krisner Green knew his team would have growing pains. The Tigers came into this season with just three returning players who had significant varsity playing time. “For the most part, we are learning how to play varsity basketball together,” Green said. “We had some struggles early on, but we’re on a good roll. I tell them that the most important thing is that you believe that you belong and deserve.” After dropping their first two games, the Tigers (12-3) have won 12 of their last 13 heading into the Hannan Pray Sonic Hoops Classic on Dec. 26-30. “Everybody is just staying on the same page,” said 6-foot-4, 220-pound senior Jeremiah Birdlow. “We’re playing with a chip on our shoulder right now. We feel like
we are the best team in the state. We have the most bigs in the state, which most teams don’t have. We have to be dominant.” Birdlow, who is averaging 10.6 points and 7.1 rebounds per game, is the most experienced returning player. Junior guard Jalen Lucas (13.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2 assists) and sophomore guard Ayden Ducre (10.9 points, 3.6 rebounds) round out the double-digit scorers. “We’ve just got to keep trusting each other,” said Lucas, who came off the bench last year before breaking his nose. “Everybody has got to be on the same page because if everyone isn’t on the same page, it’s not going to work.” And that’s where Slidell’s hot start begins to come into focus. According to 6-foot-2 senior Azaan Washington, the Tigers are “pure entertainment” on the court. “No matter if we are up or down in the game, we still find a way to come together and play with en-
ergy,” Washington said. “It’s all about working on the little things going forward. We’ve got the plays down, so we just have to keep getting better.” Birdlow agreed: “As a team, we play with a lot of fire because we have a lot of fun. The energy of this team is just unmatched. It starts in warmups because once we get going, we’re very hard to stop.” Green said he wants his players “to be a threat on the court” by playing good defense and either taking good shots or finding open teammates. “I don’t think anyone on this team has a selfish bone in their body,” Green said. “I think the more that we share the ball, the better we can be. We need to improve defensively. I want us to believe that we should hold teams down.” With the Tigers sitting in the Top 10 of the Division I power rankings, they will have plenty of chances to make Green’s words come true.

After six years at Lakeshore, the highly respected coach is focused on building both the boys and girls programs at Mandeville. “Taking over the girls’ team, I’m hoping to build some more interest, and we’ve had a good turnout, going from just four girls to 13,” Lachney said. “We’re filling 10 of the 12 weight classes. Our girls’ team is one of the biggest in the state after the LHSAA-sanctioned girls wrestling last year. Most teams have just five or six girls wrestling, but you can see the growth. It’s exciting.” The Lady Skippers are off to an impressive start, winning their first nine dual meets. The girls are coming off a dominant performance in the inaugural Battle on the Lakefront, hosted by Mandeville High on Dec. 20. The Skippers earned the title with 136 points, cruising past runner-up Chalmette (67). Slidell (50) took third, followed by Pearl River (44) and Hannan (30) in the 15-team field. Skippers’ freshman Aurora Avery has burst onto the scene, posting an impressive 21-6 mark in the 145-pound weight class. Fourteen of those wins have come by pinfall. Avery is following in her mother’s footsteps, who wrestled at Andrew Jackson High in Chalmette. “My mom loved wrestling, and she definitely wanted me to take it up. She helped sell me on the sport, and that helped persuade me to do it. The wrestling community is so
supportive,” Avery said. “I’m confident, and I’m definitely focused. I’m a hard worker, and wrestling has become a very big part of my life. You need the mentality that when you step on the mat that you believe in yourself, and you’ll never give up.” Lachney said Avery’s work ethic sets her apart. “I’m impressed with her early success and her dominance, being able to pin her opponents. Aurora isn’t afraid of facing tough competition and loves competing at a high level. She continues to develop and understands the importance of proper technique. It’s incredible what she’s already accomplished this early in the season,” Lachney said. The Mandeville girls also turned in a strong runner-up finish at the Pink Panther Tournament in Brusly on Dec. 6. “I try to make things fun for the girls, not trying to push them too hard early on until they gain experience, especially for the ones who lack experience,” Lachney said. “Our girls have increased their expectations. They expect to win and not just be on the mat, just wanting to have fun.” On the boys’ side, Lachney inherited a very young team. “They have potential. We have three seniors and three freshmen in our starting lineup with 15 freshmen on the team,” Lachney said. The Mandeville boys secured a runner-up finish in the Battle on the Lakefront as Hannan captured the title with 146 points, edging the Skippers by just six points. Mandeville has earned four top-
six finishes in tournaments thus far, while going 3-5 in dual meets. Mandeville senior Gabe Mertz is off to a fast start (20-5), competing at 144 pounds. “This year I’m more focused, paying attention to the little details. I’m moving quicker, and practices have really been good overall. I consider myself a hard worker, and I need to continue concentrating and keeping my focus. I need to stay in my own head, listening to my coaches,” Mertz said. “I’ve gotten better at warming up, getting in the zone, before matches. I used to be extremely nervous before matches, but I’ve worked on having better focus, reviewing in my head what my coaches have trained me to do.” Mertz’s former teammate, Dylan Bild, got him involved with the sport. “I have to admit, I was getting destroyed in matches when I first started. The sport had to grow on me, and it taught me discipline and perseverance,” Mertz said. Lachney said Mertz’s improvement has been impressive. “Gabe is an extremely hard worker with lots of good wrestling habits. We’re working on helping him string them together, using his strengths to his advantage, striving for more consistency on the mat,” Lachney said. Lachney, who teaches PE at Madisonville Elementary, has two daughters, Aubrey (12) and Meredith (9), who currently compete in AAU wrestling. He hopes the girls’ program will continue to grow so he can coach them when they’re in high school.

SENIORS
Continued from page 1B of the year with a hand injury, Smith shined on all sides of the ball with 680 total yards and eight scores. Cryer and Southeastern signee Jiwaun Brock (1,745 combined receiving yards, 15 touchdowns) were two more explosive options for Covington’s junior signal caller Matthew Fussell. This year’s graduating Lions are giddy to see what Fussell (1,753 total yards, 23 TDs) can do in his second year leading the offense. “I feel like from the beginning of the season, going from A to Z, we definitely did our thing,” Smith said. “We definitely climbed the ladder, became a way better team, got the chemistry up. Everybody became a whole lot better toward the end (of the year).” More local standouts made their marks in the AllStar Game. Northshore’s Alex Mims (team-high 95 yards, TD) was one of the game’s MVPs and a primary catalyst in South’s rally. Pearl River’s Brayden Hutchison battled through an ankle injury suffered during basketball and turned in one of the game’s grittiest performances with 213 total yards and a fourthquarter passing touchdown. Salmen running back Jimmy Chanzy scored from a yard out to make it a onepossession contest while Mandeville’s Connor Konopka and Jax O’Quin were more solid options in the South’s passing game. The South missed an extra point late in the game to shave the lead to eightpoints but still had one final opportunity for a gametying score inside the final two minutes. Scott’s clutch plays behind the line and a final fourth down stop sealed the deal. “When I was an underclassman, I always played edge,” Scott said. “So I was back at home, I felt (in that position). I used my speed my off the edge, and that’s really my great attribute.” Covington graduates 17 members from its team after this school year. From the players that grew up in the youth program to those who grew up elsewhere, the Lions remain grateful for their tight-knit community. “It’s a brotherhood here,”

Cryer said. “I came here last year (and) was a new kid in town, but they treat me like a brother. It’s a great experience. I love Covington High. They will forever be my brothers.” SCORE BY QUARTERS NORTH | 7 | 14 | 7 | 0 — 28 SOUTH | 0 | 0 | 7 | 13 — 20

sought the promise of a new beginning. His father's outspoken Christian mis‐ sionary work during the war had profound impacts on the family, shaping Win‐ fried's character and his approach to life's chal‐ lenges. With the echoes of his father's courage, he embraced the American Dream with unwavering determination. His work ethic was evident from an early age, as he toiled on a farm for mere pennies, saved for a bicycle, and eventually manned a paper route to support his educa‐ tion. At 18, he joined the United States Airforce, sta‐ tioned back in his birth‐ place of Berlin, where he served with distinction. His military service was a pre‐ amble to his academic achievements at the Uni‐ versity of Colorado, where he earned a Juris Doctor in 1971, laying the foundation for a successful legal ca‐ reer. As a lawyer and a contract negotiator for the Midgulf Association of Stevedores in New Orleans, he was known for his sharp intellect and fair dealings. His entrepreneur‐ ial spirit later led him to establish his own com‐ pany, where his leadership and integrity were hall‐ marks of his business ethos. Despite his profes‐ sional accolades, Win‐ fried's greatest pride was his family. He was a de‐ voted husband to his late wife, Crystal Fay Marshall Niemand, with whom he shared 55 years of loving marriage. Together, they raised three sons: Eric Arthur Niemand, who pre‐ deceased him, and his sur‐ viving sons, Andre Walter Niemand and Alan Kurt Niemand. His legacy con‐ tinues through his cher‐ ished grandchildren, Nathan Winfried Niemand, Emily Elizabeth Niemand, and Meghan Marie Nie‐ mand. He also leaves be‐ hind his older sister, Gu‐ drun, and a host of ex‐ tended family members and friends. He was pre‐ ceded in death by his younger brothers, Sieg‐ mund and Joachim. Win‐ fried's life story is one of survival, transformation, and triumph. From the ashes of war-torn Berlin to the shores of America, he embodied the spirit of re‐ silience. His life was a bea‐ con of hope and a re‐ minder that with faith, hard work, and love, any‐ thing is possible. He will be profoundly missed by his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of know‐ ing him. Audubon Funeral Home were entrusted with the arrangements.

because the passes are managed via the State Library’s web‐ site. C. ResPublic olution #25Notices 024 Meet/Hear/Min Regarding Rules and Regula‐ tions Section 113. Officers and Direc‐ tor (Branton) C. Branton reported that the Louisiana State Legislature enacted changes to LA R.S. 25:215, which governs li‐ braries. He ex‐ plained that under Act 647, if the Li‐ brary Director is also appointed to serve as the Head Librarian, that indi‐ vidual is exempt from the previous requirement that the Head Librarian be certified by the State Board of Library Examiners. In the St. Tammany Parish Library system, the roles of Head Li‐ brarian and Library Director are held by the same person. C. Branton then pro‐ posed Resolution 25-024 to remove the requirement that the Library Director “obtain/maintain certification by the Louisiana State Board of Library Examiners” from Section 113(D)(4) (f) of the Library Board of Control Rules and Regula‐ tions.
Library Directors. He stated that the State Library has observed that that the trend is shifting away from requiring Public Notices a traditional Master Meet/Hear/Min of Library and In‐ formation Science (MLIS) and toward a CEO-type of Di‐ rector. He empha‐ sized that this does not mean that the Personnel Commit‐ tee has already de‐ cided on a particular type of person; it simply brings the Rules and Regula‐ tions into compli‐ ance with state law. MOTION #1: C. Branton moved to adopt Res. 25-024. It was seconded by T. Thompson. MOTION #2: J. Corbin moved to amend the resolu‐ tion by changing the word “compliance” in the fourth para‐ graph to “align‐ ment.” It was sec‐ onded by G. Baham. PUBLIC COM‐ MENT: There was no public comment.
