They make up our area’s history.” Bluffton Cemetery, located on RR 2241 about two miles west of See CEMETERY / Page 10

The reason it worked for them is they looked at it as a church plant.” About 26 people gathered in 1888,

BURNET — Sue Kersey parlayed her passion for gardening into becoming a Master Gardener, a Master Naturalist and an active member of both the Highland Lakes Native Plant Society and the Wildflower and Birding Society. “When I moved to Texas, I discovered that native plants are the real way to go because they supply all the food and the nectar and sources in habitat,” she said. “There was a lot I didn’t know about Texas. I needed to be a better steward of the land. I needed See FESTIVAL / Page 11

Texas outlaw frontier on Coffee Talks schedule at Burnet library SPECIAL TO THE PICAYUNE BURNET — Author Peter R. Rose will discuss his book “The Reckoning: The Triumph of Order on the Texas Outlaw Frontier” on Oct. 10 at the Herman Brown Free Library. The free program is part of the Coffee Talks series at the library, 100 E. Washington. Refreshments will be served at 1:30 p.m. followed by the presentation at 2 p.m. Early arrival is recommended. The geologist-turned-historian will talk about the Edwards Plateau and how its unique landscape made it possible for outlaw bands to prey on settlers without punishment, according to a library news release. In the wake of the Civil War, the region was racked with disorder, including violence by vigilante bands, Indian raids and a range war between Germans and Anglo-Celtic settlers, allowing outlaws to take advantage of the chaos, according to the release.

Church was started when only about six homes sat within Marble Falls city limits FROM PAGE 1
PETER R. ROSE banded together to rob stagecoaches, raid cattle in several counties and intimidate and murder settlers, according to the release. The criminal confederation even took over the Kimble County government. The lawless period culminated in the Texas Rangers banding with settlers to fight off the criminals. Rose’s maternal grandparents came to the Kimble County frontier in 1891, and Rose still owns and operates a ranch there, according to the release. He draws on family historical material, his work in geology and Texas Rangers files to create a well-documented, entertaining book. Books will be available at the presentation for purchase and autograph. A Marble Falls resident, Scarborough received her doctorate from the University of Texas in Houston.

sat on railroad ties and started First Baptist Church of Marble Falls. At the time, about six homes sat within the city limits. Despite the humble beginnings and constant challenges (the Great Depression and a fire that destroyed the church), First Baptist grew and prospered. Chandler said the reason for the church staying relevant and vibrant was, and is, simple. “God had a hand it in,” the pastor said. The church is celebrating its 125th anniversary over a three-week period. On Sept. 29, the congregation held History Day. On Oct. 6 at 11 a.m., the congregation will gather at Johnson Park, 230 Ave. J South, for Revival in the Park. “That’s where it all started,” said Gary Stone of the church. “First Baptist was the first organized church in Marble Falls.” Church and city grew up together. Marble Falls formed in 1887 with the church a year behind. Stone said the Methodists actually had a church building in Marble Falls prior to First Baptist organizing, but it was part of the local circuit preacher’s path and not an organized congregation. “They met when the minister was in town,” Stone said. “But the Methodists
allowed us to use the church when they weren’t meeting in it.” Eventually, First Baptist found its only facility in then-downtown Marble Falls. The congregation continued to grow. The Great Depression presented challenges, but Chandler said the members always kept God and a servant’s heart at the forefront, which helped sustain them. In 1958, the Rev. Max Copeland came to Marble Falls from Briggs along with his wife, Glenna, to First Baptist of Marble Falls. He served as the pastor until a little more than a decade ago, when he stepped aside. Though, “retirement” does not describe Copeland’s role in the community and the church since stepping down from the pulpit. He continues to teach a Sunday school class and minister to residents across the Highland Lakes. On Oct. 12, the church and the community will honor Copeland and his wife with a homecoming and a reception at the Worship Center of the church, 501 Twelfth St., at 5 p.m. “We’re going to celebrate his 55 years in ministry,” Chandler said. “He and Glenna mean so much, not just to this church but this entire community.” Copeland led the church through one of its most trying times. In March 1962, a fire destroyed the church building. “It was a very tough time for the church,” Stone said. “They said if we
could have captured all the tears when the building burned, it would have extinguished the flames.” The congregation had a choice: fold or rebuild. God led them to a little pasture northeast of town. It wasn’t even within the city, Stone said, but that’s where the congregation chose to rebuild. That 12th Street location is where First Baptist currently sits. Now, the church prepares to make another move. In 2003, the church purchased property in the La Venta area located just south of Lake Marble Falls on the west side of U.S. 281. On Oct. 13, after a celebration worship service at 10:20 a.m. at the current location, the congregation will travel to the La Venta site for an all-church homecoming and a groundbreaking. “We’re inviting anybody who ever had any connection to First Baptist to come out and join us,” Chandler said. Though First Baptist Church has grown over the years, Chandler said he wants the community to know the congregation still holds on to the truth the initial members clung to when sitting on those railroad ties under the pecan trees Sept. 9, 1888. “We went them to know we believe the story of Jesus Christ is true and that story is transformative in people’s lives,” Chandler said.

Stangs open district with defending state champ BY JENNIFER FIERRO Picayune Staff
GAMETIME
MARBLE FALLS — The Marble Falls High School football team didn’t play last week, but the coaches were at a few games. Head coach Todd Dodge divided his coaching staff into scouting teams to attend all three District 25-4A contests Sept. 27, the night of his squad’s bye. Now, the Mustangs (2-2) focus on the final six weeks of the season with the aim of competing for the district crown and qualifying for the playoffs. And it starts Oct. 4 against Cedar Park High, the Class 4A Division II defending state champion. “Over the next six weeks, we have to keep improving and go try to whit-

Junior running back Joey Carter has 54 carries for 321 yards and a touchdown, while senior receiver Bill Estevanott has 19 catches for 232 yards and two touchdowns for the Timberwolves. Cedar Park scores an average of 36 points a contest but gives up 18 points. The Timberwolves’ only loss was to Abilene Cooper, 24-21, on Sept. 6. The Cougars connected on a field goal as time expired. “I think Cedar Park is better at this point than last year,” Dodge said. On Sept. 29, Marble Falls coaches dissected their notes about each of the district opponents. Dodge said he already exchanged video with Cedar Park on Sept. 25, so players have had their scouting reports on the Timberwolves for a couple of days. The Mustangs travel to Cedar Park’s John Gupton Stadium, located at South Vista Ridge Boulevard and East Park Street in Cedar Park, for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff Oct. 4. jfierro@thepicayune.com

Burnet takes two-game winning streak into bye week BY JENNIFER FIERRO Picayune Staff
BURNET — The Burnet High School football team is enjoying a two-game winning streak on their bye week. The Bulldogs (4-1) defeated Taylor 34-24 on Sept. 27 for their second winning streak of the season. “You always want to go into your open week on a couple of wins,” head coach Kurt Jones said. “Our mentality will be good in terms of we need an open week to try to get past bumps and bruises. There’s extra time to get better at some things we need to get better at, and we’ll start to get ready for Brownwood. Brownwood is a good team.” Burnet will travel to Brownwood on Oct. 11 for the District 8-3A opener. Jones said the Bulldogs are being drilled on things fans may take for granted such as route timing, techniques and footwork. “Blocking out of the skill positions like the receivers and the backs,” he said. “We want to pursue and tackle better on defense. We need to make strides there as well.”

Burnet High School’s Blayne Parisher (11) tries to escape a Taylor defender Sept. 27. The Bulldogs held off a late charge by the Ducks to win 34-24. The Bulldogs head into their bye week at 4-1 as the team prepares for its district opener Oct. 11 at Brownwood. STAFF PHOTO BY DANIEL CLIFTON Against Taylor, the Bulldogs rolled to a 20-2 lead by the half. Jones credited the defense for the lead. “I thought the defense dominated and played well the first half,” he said. “In the second half, we scored when we needed to, but I never felt like we put it all together.” Jones thought they left points on the field. “We weren’t as good as we could have been,” he said. “We missed on a couple of scoring opportunities. It left us close for the rest of the night.” He credited the Ducks for recording plays that got them back into the contest and getting receiver My’lik
Kerley and running back Isaac Franco involved. Kerley caught a pass for 59 yards that set up a 33-yard touchdown run by Franco. “They always have some talented skill kids,” Jones said. “They always have good speed.” Burnet senior quarterback Derek Kiser completed 24 of 28 passes for 284 yards and four touchdowns, while senior running back Trenton Hafley had 13 rushes for 101 yards and senior receiver Blayne Parisher caught nine passes for 109 yards and three touchdowns. jfierro@thepicayune.com

MARBLE FALLS — After surviving a Schertz John Paul II opponent that simply wouldn’t give up last week, the Faith Academy football team is refocused and ready for the challenges that come with homecoming week. The Flames (5-0) welcome San Antonio St. Gerard at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 4 to Pony Stadium on the Marble Falls Middle School campus, 1511 Pony Circle Drive. Against John Paul II, Faith faced almost a mirror image of its offense. But St. Gerard (1-4) will bring a pass-oriented scheme into the contest, Flames head coach Russ Roberts said. “We know they have great receivers,” he said. “If their quarterback has the skill level to get the ball to them, we’ll have to work harder.” The Royals’ only win came against Brooks Academy, 44-32, on Sept. 13. Junior quarterback Jubias Cloud has completed 10 of 17 passes for 253 yards and has 14 rushes for 123 yards and two touchdowns for St. Gerard, while senior running back Devonte Walker has 10 carries for 208 yards and two touchdowns. Sophomore receiver Zeke Cardenas has caught four passes for 117 yards, and junior receiver Alex Mack has two receptions for 114 yards. Faith enters the contest after a 28-21 win against John Paul II. The Flames scored all their points in the first half. Offensive penalties contributed to drives stalling out for Faith in the second half. Meanwhile, the Guardians scored

on their first offensive series of the third quarter. But they turned the ball over on downs when the Flames made defensive stands. During the final series, Faith senior lineman Mitch Earwood grabbed John Paul II junior
quarterback Jeffrey Bradley for a sack on fourth down. “We definitely saw some positives,” Roberts said. “We didn’t let them come back in the second half. We can see we grew up.” He said he thought his players’ conditioning played a factor in the outcome, noting things went the Flames’ way on game-changing plays. “I do think we’re in good shape,” Roberts said. “In the fourth quarter, I think our conditioning helped us. They lost two starters. We were more durable.” jfierro@thepicayune.com

Llano heals and works on basics during bye week BY JENNIFER FIERRO Picayune Staff
LLANO — After five games and with two offensive starters unable to finish the contest against Fredericksburg last week, an open date couldn’t have come at a better time for the Llano High School football team. The Yellow Jackets (2-3) lost to the Billies 16-13 on Sept. 27. Players have been focusing on the basics during the week and are getting much-needed rest, head coach Craig Slaughter said. “Fundamentals and working on our execution,” he said. Slaughter won’t be sending any coaches on scouting trips Oct. 4 because it’s a District 8-3A bye week with no games scheduled. Instead, the Yellow Jackets have gotten an early start on examining the other district members, which include Liberty Hill, Lampasas, Gatesville, Burnet and Brownwood. Llano is at Liberty Hill on Oct. 11. Against Fredericksburg, the Yellow Jackets came back to tie the contest 7-7 in the third quarter thanks to a 51-yard pass and catch from junior quarterback Holden Simpson to senior receiver Chance Ware. Then, the two teams exchanged touchdowns. Senior receiver Isaac Hutto hauled in a 16-yard touchdown pass from Simpson to trim the deficit to 14-13. Llano decided to go for the two-point conversion, but the pass failed with 5 minutes 33 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. The Jackets defense forced a punt at midfield, which was downed at Llano’s one-yard line. The Billies recorded a safety on the next play with 3:55 left to seal the victory. Simpson completed 12 of 21 passes for 141 yards and two touchdowns for Llano. Senior running back Carter Tatsch had 15 carries for 34 yards, while Hutto caught four passes for 67 yards and a touchdown and Ware had three receptions for 64 yards and a touchdown. Senior quarterback Layton Rabb was still recovering from an appendicitis and didn’t play. Meanwhile, Tatsch left at the half because of an injury, Slaughter said. jfierro@thepicayune.com
MFHS junior and racer on fast career track BY DANIEL CLIFTON Picayune Editor
MARBLE FALLS — As 16-year-old Clayton Green maps out a race in his mind, he runs through every possible scenario — to the point he even predicts what his fellow racers will do. “I’ve raced enough against most of the other racers that I pretty much know what they’ll do, and then, I can set up for it,” said Green, a Marble Falls High School junior. In a race where a hundredth of a second separates winning and second place, a quick reaction can determine not only a race but an entire season. As a race car driver in the Legends Pro Class division, Green understands how reaction time matters. He also knows distractions while driving can lead to serious consequences. Recently, Green signed on with the organization Finish Alive Stop Texting (FAST) to promote an antitexting-while-driving message. Green’s mother, Dana Green, said her son’s racing abilities caught the attention of FAST, which led to the arrangement. Clayton isn’t new to the sport. His racing résumé started about 10 years ago when he caught the bug from his father, Steven Green. Clayton’s dad was a regular competitor around race tracks, and he took his son along with him. But as a child, Clayton often found himself stuck in the trailer away from the action. Sitting around and waiting wasn’t Clayton’s idea of having fun. “I just got tired of sitting in the trailer and told my dad I wanted to race,” Clayton said. So Steven did the one thing he thought would appease his son. He stuck him in a go-cart and let him race. Clayton’s ability quickly grew. From go-carts, he graduated to Bandoleros, a type of car that is fairly small (70-inch wheel base) and uses a 30-horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine. As a middle school student, Clayton captured the national championship in the Bandolero class, which led him to move up to the Legends division.
Marble Falls High School junior Clayton Green, a Legends car racer, recently won first place and $4,000 at a competition at Houston Motorsports Park. The 16-year-old signed with sponsor Finish Alive Stop Texting to promote an anti-texting-while-driving message. COURTESY PHOTO A Legends car resembles a small roadster with a low-slung hood and aggressive styling. It relies on a 122-horsepower Yamaha motor for speed. The entire class started in 1992 as a way to allow more people to get into the sport of racing. And while some people do it for fun, Clayton developed skills that put him in the driver’s seat of a potential racing career. After a couple years of racing Legends cars, he moved up to the Pro Division this year and often found himself ahead of the pack. He won a race on Labor Day weekend at the Houston Motorsports Park, where he netted $4,000. “If you look at what he’s done and accomplished as young as he is and what he’s up against, it’s really amazing,” his mother said. To compete takes more than Clayton’s commitment; it also takes the willingness of his parents to support him and travel across the country with him. Over the past several years, the Greens have chased checkered flags across Texas and the Southeast. While the bulk of the racing takes place in Texas, they do occasionally make trips to Georgia and North Carolina. “We race 48 out of the 52 weekends of the year,” Dana Green said. “We’re a family team. We’re a budget team. These other racers, they have crews. We’re out there together.” “Yeah, I have a dad and a mom,” Clayton said with a grin.
Dana Green added that a lot of the recent success comes with the support of Marble Falls High School staff. She praised the willingness of Principal Manny Lunoff and her son’s teachers to work with him so he can maintain his weekend race schedule. The overall championship is decided by points acquired during the season. The more races a driver enters, the more opportunities to earn points. With that in mind, the advantage clearly favors East Coast — especially North Carolina — drivers. “In Texas, you have a race just about every weekend,” Dana Green said. “In North Carolina, they can race five days a week.” Whatever their system is, it’s working. As the 2013 season winds down, Clayton finds himself in the No. 2 or No. 3 positions at races despite several of his competitors being older and more experienced. Clayton believes the national championship is out of reach this year, but he’s aiming for at least No. 2. Along they way, he hopes to spread the message of the dangers of texting and driving. Ironically, Clayton, though 16, doesn’t hold a driver’s license. He’s just too busy racing. Still, he fits the mold of the spokesperson for whom FAST wants, his mother said. “They want somebody like Clayton who’s young and races because other kids, hopefully, will realize if this highly-skilled race car driver can’t text and drive, how do they think they can?”
Dana Green said. As for racing, he’s eyeing a move to an entire different class: the modified. As a NASCAR class, it’s a step toward the major leagues. While he’s solidified his name as a top-level competitor in Bandoleros and Legends cars, Clayton’s dreams are even bigger. “Where do I want to go with this?” he mused, when asked about his future racing plans. “For every kid who does my sport, it is to make it a profession. Maybe it’s not Saturday night racing, but one of those professional divisions.” Go to www.finishalivestoptexting. org for more information on FAST and www.uslegendcars.com for more on Legends cars racing. daniel@thepicayune.com

Cemetery is resting place of veterans of historic battles FROM PAGE 1 Bluffton and 11 miles east of Llano, is the final resting place for people who took part in history. One of the markers honors Isaac Byler Maxwell, who was born in 1837 and died in 1931. Up until his passing, he was believed to be the oldest living resident of Llano County. During his life, Maxwell not only witnessed history, he made it. “He actually founded Bluffton,” Hallmark said. “He named it after his home, I believe, in Arkansas.” Maxwell moved to the Llano County area in 1854, but his travels weren’t over. He served as a scout for the frontier units during the Civil War. After the war and three terms as justice of the peace, Maxwell headed to Austin as a member of the Legislature. “He was the one who convinced the state to use granite from Llano and Burnet counties to build the state Capitol building,” Hallmark said. “They were considering stone from Indiana, but he helped put a stop to that.” Along with Maxwell, many veterans of historic battles and wars rest in Bluffton Cemetery. Those include Thomas Gooch, who served during the Mexican War; Tom Herridge, who served during World War I; and David Hill, who fought at the Battle of San Jacinto during Texas’ fight for independence. “There’s so much history packed into this little cemetery. And over there,” Hallmark said, pointing off to
Mary Duff, buried in Bluffton Cemetery, was born one year before the Declaration of Independence was signed. The cemetery association is holding its annual business meeting 10 a.m. Oct. 5 at the cemetery, located on RR 2241 about two miles west of Bluffton. Those interested in helping to preserve the history of the cemetery are invited. STAFF PHOTO BY DANIEL CLIFTON
one area of the cemetery, “is Mary Duff’s plot. She was actually born one year before the signing of the Declaration of Independence.” Hallmark, who has relatives buried in Bluffton Cemetery, believes preserving and protecting it is important for historical reasons as well as cultural. The cemetery began 149 years ago in the original Bluffton community. But when the Lower Colorado River Authority built Buchanan Dam in the 1930s, the state moved the community and the cemetery to their current locations. All but one grave was moved from the basin to either the current Bluffton Cemetery or another cemetery. Since then, the Bluffton Cemetery Assocation continues to provide burial plots to people. It’s
not a sale with deed but a right to be buried there, Hallmark said. That way, if a person decides not to use the plot, the association will “buy” back the right for the original fee. “We rely on the burial (right transactions) and donations to maintain the cemetery,” he said. On Oct. 5, the Bluffton Cemetery Association is holding its annual business meeting at the cemetery at 10 a.m. Association board members hope for a big turnout because the more people who are interested in the cemetery, the better the organization can take care of the facility. Along with the business meeting, the board will present a program, “History of the Old Bluffton Cemetery.” Hallmark has diligently worked to compile the history of the old and new locations. He’s
even working on a book about the cemetery and the community. Four years ago, he published the book “Old Bluffton Revisited” about the original community. While it’s required plenty of work and dedication, Hallmark said recording the old and new Bluffton histories is important for past, present and future residents. “So much history took place here,” he said. “I think we tend to overlook the importance of places like Bluffton and the people who lived here because they may not be well known. But if you just look around here (at the cemetery), you’ll find a lot of people who took part in history. They all have stories to tell.” Go to www.blufftoncemetery.org for more information. daniel@thepicayune.com

5K race honors Llano teacher while refilling school supplies closets BY DANIEL CLIFTON Picayune Editor
LLANO — One of Shannon Kaspar’s passions was running. The Llano Elementary School teacher enjoyed hitting the pavement and didn’t mind doing it for a good cause, including an annual school supply drive fun run. But several years ago, the beloved teacher passed away. The First Baptist Church of Llano’s Women’s Ministry decided to honor Kaspar by naming the annual school supply 5K after her. “Oh my, she was a teacher at Llano Elementary School for over 20 years,” said Brenda Park, this year’s Shannon Kaspar 5K for School Supplies organizer. “She loved to run. She died suddenly about five years ago, so the ministry decided to name the race after her.” The annual Shannon Kaspar 5K for School Supplies is Oct. 19. It starts at the church’s activity center, 907 Berry St. The runners hit the road at 8:30 a.m. “It’s a fairly easy course,” Parker said. “We have one big hill, though, called Water Tower Hill.” While organizers hand out medals to the top three finishers in each age group (men’s and women’s divisions), Parker said the heart of the run is to have fun. “We hope people and families come out and enjoy the event,” she said. The money raised from the run goes to the Women’s Ministry’s school supply fund. Parker said Llano school counselors typically stock a closet at each campus with school supplies. During the year, counselors dole out those supplies to students who need them but might be unable to afford them. As the school supplies dwindle, the counselors reach out to the ministry for assistance in refilling the closets. “A campus counselor will contact one of the (ministry members), and we’ll get them the money to buy more supplies,” Parker said. People can register up to the day of the 5K. Registration is $25 for adults, $15 for youth 18 and younger and $55 for families.

to learn to conserve water resources.” She honed her skills by participating, co-organizing and volunteering at a local native plant festival, now in its fourth year. The Native Plant Festival, with the theme “Bring Back the Monarchs,” is a free event from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m Oct. 5 at Inks Dam National Fish Hatchery. The hatchery is located at 345 Clay Young Road off Park Road 4 south of Inks Lake State Park in Burnet County. A garden tour at three homes is scheduled noon-4 p.m. and costs $5 with all proceeds going to the nonprofit Highland Lakes Native Plant Society.
Exhibits at the hatchery include live butterfly habitat displays, an information booth, a tree adoption giveaway, a nature walk on the grounds and birding activities. “Each year, (attendees) get very excited to try these things in their own yards,” said Terri Whaley, the event publicity chairwoman. “So this year, we hope we have a lot of people who go home and try their own monarch waystations.” Cathy Downs, chairwoman of the Bring Back the Monarchs to Texas program, will speak at 10:30 a.m. in the education building at the hatchery. “Texas is a critical habitat for the monarchs. They need to be able to get nectar and reproduce in this state when they’re leaving Mexico and heading up north to Canada and when
they’re going back home to Mexico,” said event co-chairman Fred Zagst, who also is president of Highland Lakes Native Plant Society. Attendees will discover a little effort makes a big impact. “There’s a lot people can do on a small scale to make a difference in this huge state,” Kersey said. Festival attendees also can purchase native plants and seeds to help launch habitats of their own. “Just get started. If you see native plants, you start to realize how gorgeous they are, especially in our drought,” Kersey said. “They’re the only thing that looks really good, unless you’re watering a lot, and we need to be very conscious of that.” Call (512) 755-2557 or go to www.yantislakesidegardens.com.

typically handle the organization of the night. And it’s not just the Hill Country taking part. Sarver said Fields of Faith events are taking place the same night across the country. The Mustang Stadium program will draw students from Marble Falls, Burnet, Llano and Johnson City schools. Fields of Faith is an interdenominational rally. Twelve area youth ministers are working together to organize the Mustang Stadium event. The idea, Sarver said, is for kids to invite their friends to hear from themselves and other youth about how Jesus impacts their lives. “A lot of kids, especially those who didn’t grow up in church, aren’t going to set their feet inside a church,” he said. “This is a neutral site, where they can come, hear from other kids and come to understand who Jesus is and what he can do in their lives.” The first Fields of Faith was in 2004 when more than 6,000 youth gathered on athletic fields across Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas. Two years later, the event went nationwide with more than 50,000 people attending. Sarver said in 2011, when he was in South Texas, the event drew more than 15,000 students. “It’s incredible to see all these kids come together and hear their friends, teammates and peers share their testimonies,” he said. Contact Sarver at (956) 821-8757 or bsarver@fca.org for more information or to get involved in FCA.

MARBLE FALLS — Penny Miller recalled a moment when she realized just how important her congregation’s Blessing of the Animals was for pet owners. “One time, a pickup drove in a bit early, and we went over and asked if we could help,” said Miller, a member Trinity Episcopal Church in Marble Falls. The driver shared his sad tale with Miller. The night before, the man had taken his dog to the veterinarian’s office, where the animal died. When driving through Marble Falls on his way to bury the dog on his ranch, the man saw a sign hung across RR 1431 about Trinity’s Blessing of the Animals service. “He wanted to know if our priest could bless his dog, even though it was dead,” Miller said. The priest did, and the man drove off to bury his companion. “It meant so much to him to have his dog blessed,” Miller said. “I said, ‘Now if that doesn’t make it all worthwhile.’” Animals and pets, though not human, fill a major part of people’s lives. And Trinity Episcopal recognizes that connection with the church’s annual Blessing of the Animals at 10:30 a.m. Oct. 6. Miller said the plan is to

The Blessing of the Animals tradition stems from St. Francis of Assisi, a monk from the 12th and 13th centuries who was known for his love of nature and animals. He is the patron saint of animals and the environment. “We celebrate St. Francis’ feast on Oct. 4, so we hold the blessing on the closest Sunday to that date,” Miller said. The blessing isn’t just for congregation members and their pets. Everyone
is welcome to bring pets for the special Fransican blessing. “Pets are part of people’s family,” she said. “It’s fun to see that side of our members and the community. We form special bonds with our pets. We just love to see how much (of a bond) from owner to pet.” All pets should be leashed or confined for safety reasons. The church is accepting donations of old towels, pet supplies, pet food and pet toys, which will be given to the Christ-Yoder Animal Shelter in Buchanan Dam. There also will be treats for the pets and “their people.”

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy BY KEVIN ATKINS Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is a serious dose-limiting side effect associated with several commonly used types of chemotherapy. CIPN occurs in 30-40 percent of patients receiving chemotherapy. The degree of neuronal damage depends on many factors, including the chemotherapeutic agent, the duration of therapy, the cumulative dose and the concomitant use of other neurotoxic agents. Overall, CIPN can be extremely disabling; therefore, it would be ideal to prevent it before it occurs. N-acetylcysteine and glutamine show promise in preventing CIPN. Finding effective treatment for established CIPN also is very important. Topical therapies using medications such as amitriptyline, ketamine and baclofen
PHARMACY NEWS have been studied for the treatment of neuropathic pain and have been found useful in the treatment of diabetic neuropathy, postsurgical and posttraumatic pain, hyperalgesia and postherpetic neuralgia, so they might be helpful for CIPN.

Picayune Editor
LLANO — When Rhonda Herridge decided to throw a fundraiser for Faith’s Door, a residential facility for women looking for a fresh start, she did it in a big way. “I wanted to do something both to raise funds and raise awareness about what Faith’s Door is, and it turned into this,” Herridge said. “This” is Faith’s Door Family Fun Day at the Oxford Ranch, 11380 Texas 16 about 10 miles south of Llano. The event is Oct. 4-5, but most of the activities fall on Oct. 5. Organizers are holding a chicken-fried steak dinner 6-8 p.m. Oct. 4 at the ranch. Tickets for the dinner are $8 for adults and $4 for children 12 and younger. But the big day is definitely Oct. 5. For a parking fee of $5 per vehicle, attendees can enjoy activities such as lawnmower racing, a washer tournament, mud volleyball, a Kiddy Karroll, a poker run, a barbecue cook-off and lots of live music. Some activities may require a fee to participate. “It’s really going to be a fun day,” Herridge said. “This is the first time I’ve ever seen mud volleyball, but I heard it’s lots of fun.” The Lone Star Mower Racing Association is sanctioning the lawnmower race. It will be the first points race of the 2013-2014 season. “The layout is great out there,” said Dennis Drake, a racer and association member. “Some of these mowers, if you put them out on the street, can

COURTESY PHOTO reach up to 70 miles per hour.” On the course, however, the racers probably won’t reach those speeds but will easily hit 40-plus mph on straightaways. Herridge said her hope is to use the event to let people know about Faith’s Door. “It’s basically a residential program for women who are looking for some help or a way to get a fresh start,” she said. Faith’s Door has space for up to six women at a time. During their stay at Faith’s Door, the women learn skills that help them make it on their own, whether it’s life skills or job-related skills. “While some women may be trying escape a bad relationship, that doesn’t need to be the only reason to
come here for help,” Herridge said. “It could be people are just struggling to get from point A to point B and need a little help. This is an opportunity so they can take that next step in life.” After a woman’s stay at the facility, Faith’s Door staff doesn’t wash their hands of her. “We do follow-ups with the women,” Herridge said. “We don’t just send them out on their own. We want to help them be successful.” During the Faith’s Door Family Fun Day, people can learn about the organization’s mission while having, well, lots of fun.

TELL ’EM YOU SAW IT IN THE PICAYUNE
BY DANIEL CLIFTON Picayune Editor
HOOVER’S VALLEY — Imagine you’re on the TV show “Survivor,” and, during tribal council, you and another contestant are in danger of being voted off. Host Jeff Probst hands each of you a firestarting kit and says whoever builds a fire first and burns through a rope gets to stay and play another day. Could you do it? If not, Inks Lake State Park interpreter Sean Jones has just the workshop for you. The park is hosting a new survival series with the first lessons demonstrating how to start a fire, without matches or lighter, of course. While you could use the skill on “Survivor,” Jones and the park staff sees it as a bit more pragmatic. “We’ve found that one of the barriers to getting outdoors and enjoying the outdoors is people find they don’t have the skills to really enjoy the outdoors,” Jones said. “During the survival series, we’ll introduce skills people can use outdoors.” The firestarting lesson is 5-6 p.m. Oct. 5 and Oct. 26 at the amphitheater in Inks Lake State Park, 3630 Park

Jones said the next one in November likely will highlight edible plants. “When we do our (guided) hikes

out here, people perk up when we start talking about edible or beneficial plants,” he said. “People like to learn about the historic uses of plants. They are interested in learning which ones are edible.” Throughout the fall and winter, the topics will change. Jones said participant interest will drive some of the selections. “We’ll see what people want,” he said. “We’ll see what the feedback is and go from there.” Go to www.tpwd.state.tx.us/stateparks/inks-lake or call (512) 793-2223 for more information or updates. daniel@thpicayune.com
