BURNET — While Mom, and even Dad, might have a book club, there’s a chance the kids might be missing out on the benefits and fun of reading with one. Darlene Denton, parent-volunteer coordinator at the Burnet Parent Resource Center, is trying to change that. On Oct. 21, she and the center are hosting the first meeting of the Family Book Club for the 2013-2014 academic school year. “Basically, this is a way to promote families reading together,” she said. “There are a lot of statistics and research out there that shows when parents read to or with children, it makes a tremendous difference in the child’s education and own reading.” She points out mothers do most of the reading; additional studies show that fathers getting involved bumps up the impact even more.

LLANO — When Tommi Myers and the Friends of the Llano Library hosted the first Historical Cemetery Tour five years

ago, about a dozen people showed up. Now, many people would have become discouraged after pouring hours of work into researching several families with relatives in Llano City Cemetery and See TOUR / Page 15

MARBLE FALLS — The right sculpture in the right place has a way of changing the landscape. “My wife liked the piece. It brightens up the front yard and adds color to the landscape,” said Mark McCary, a Marble Falls attorney. “The glass catches the sun and does very nice rays.” McCary purchased the sculpture, titled Lollipop’s III, and displays it in front of the couple’s business See SCULPTURE / Page 4

Are you ready for the (Moonlight) Madness? Local retailers brew up deals FROM STAFF REPORTS MARBLE FALLS — The holiday shopping season gets a jump start Oct. 24 during the annual Moonlight Madness. The event sponsored by The Picayune, KBEY 103.9 FM Radio Picayune and the Marble Falls/ Lake LBJ Chamber of Commerce rolls spook-tacular sales and fun throughout the day. Many local

businesses and retail stores are offering special deals during the event. And for people looking to scare up a few more deals, many of the participating businesses stay open late allowing shoppers to “haunt” the aisles while on the lookout for just the right bargain. This is a truly shop-at-home affair. The idea behind the event is to encourage residents to check out hometown stores in preparation for the upcom-

ing holiday shopping season. The event ties in with Halloween in that organizers are encouraging participating businesses to have their staffs dress up in costumes. People stopping by The Picayune and KBEY offices will find the folks dressed up in a circus theme. As with previous years, judges will head out to participating businesses and bestow honors upon the best-costumed players.

There will be other activities to encourage people to get out and take advantage of the Moonlight Madness deals. A full list of participating businesses will be included in the Oct. 23 edition of The Picayune. Businesses interested in participating in Moonlight Madness should call Mandi Wyatt or Cindi Ashford at (830) 693-7152. editor@thepicayune.com

Scuplture event to feature outdoor art competition Mark and Mandy McCary purchased Lollipops III from the collection of pieces featured at the 2012 Sculpture on Main to display in front of their law office in the 600 block of Avenue G. The seventh annual Sculpture on Main Exhibit and Quick Draw Plein Air Competition is Oct. 18-19 in Marble Falls.

FROM PAGE 1 at 600 Ave. G. The piece was part of the 2012 Sculpture on Main exhibit, which featured about 30 sculptures on loan and for sale by artists from across the country. The seventh annual Sculpture on Main and Quick Draw Plein Air Competition on Oct. 18-19 will feature nearly two dozen new pieces installed along and around Main Street. From steel and rock to glass and bronze, the classical and abstract pieces come in all shapes and sizes and range in price from $1,000 to $60,0000. “It was quite reasonable. It is very unique,” said McCary of his purchase. “It’s a great way to introduce folks to art and the creativity that is out there.” Julia Adams, events coordinator for the Marble Falls/Lake LBJ Chamber of Commerce, said the installation of 26 new pieces will begin Oct. 17 for the upcoming exhibit. “It attracts the artist community for anyone who likes art and sculptures,” she said. “Last year, we had five sculptures that were sold, which is great.”

This year, organizers have added a plein air (outdoor) art competition, where a dozen artists will compete by capturing downtown images in a 90-minute period. Also, organizers changed the location of the artist’s reception. The reception is 5:30-7:30 p.m. Oct. 18 at the Visitors Center, 100 Ave. G. The cost is $25 per person. On Oct. 19, Sip N Stroll is 2-6 p.m. and costs $20 for wine and hors d’oeuvres during a tour of sculptures

along the exhibit route in downtown Marble Falls. Maps will be available in the 200 block of Main Street. Live music is planned at Third and Main streets. Visitors can sponsor a sculpture for $150. The public can tour downtown for free. Adams said, over the years, the exhibit has helped mold Marble Falls into an art destination as well as created an economic boost for the

community. “Marble Falls, because of where it’s nestled, is a good place to come visit. But, because it’s a small town, it has that good feeling,” she said. “(Visitors and artists) come here and stay here, helping our local business.” Go to www.sculptureonmain.com for more information. The sculptures remain on display throughout the year. connie@thepicayune.com

Club meets about every three months FROM PAGE 1 “So, our hope is to get families reading together,” Denton said. This is the second year the resource center, 202 E. Brier St., has promoted the Family Book Club. And like similar reading clubs, the format is rather simple. “We typically meet three times a year,” Denton said. “During the meeting, I’ll have some book selected for families to read. Then, everybody takes them home, reads them and then we get back together at the next meeting and discuss the books.” While Denton selects books, she added the families don’t have to chose those titles. The parents and children simply need to read one together and come back to discuss it. The Family Book Club meets about every three months. By spreading out the meetings, families have enough time to tackle longer chapter books for older elementary students. Denton said parents and kids can set aside time each night to read a chapter. Families with younger children can select several easier books and read them numerous times. “I just want them to read together and spend some time discussing the book,” Denton said. She also schedules two meetings on the selected day so families can chose which time better fits their schedule. The first Family Book Club meetings are at 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. Oct. 21. During the first meeting, Denton will go over the program and explain to parents and children the benefits of reading as a family. There also will be light snacks available. In addition, during the 6 p.m. meeting, Melissa Tolliver will give tips to parents about sharing stories from and about their childhoods with their kids. Often parents and children can connect through these types of stories or even through books. Last year, one of the selections Denton encouraged parents to consider was reading a book they read as a child. “I think doing something like that, sharing a book you enjoyed as a child with your child, really brings you together,” she said. “And, it’s just fun.” Call Denton at (512) 715-3668 for more information on the Family Book Club or the Parent Resource Center. daniel@thepicayune.com

Thrift store puts fashions on the stage

Fayrene Teague, a cashier at the Library Thrift Store, located at Third Street and Avenue J in Marble Falls, is selling tickets for the Fall Fashion Show and Luncheon at 11:30 a.m. Oct. 22 at First United Methodist Church, 1101 Bluebonnet Drive in Marble Falls. COURTESY

BY DANIEL CLIFTON Picayune Editor

MARBLE FALLS — Saving hundreds of dollars on a top-quality wardrobe isn’t as difficult as you might think, and the staff of the Marble Falls Library Thrift Store want to prove it to you. “Oh, my goodness, we have such an incredible selection of high-end clothing,” said Nancy Hill, the thrift store assistant manager. “I bet a lot of people don’t know what great deals we have on some very nice clothes and accessories.” So, the thrift store staff and a cadre of volunteers are going to show the public. On Oct. 22, the second Marble Falls Library Thrift Store’s Fall Fashion Show and Luncheon hits the runway at 11:30 a.m. at First United Methodist Church, 1101 Bluebonnet Drive. For a $20 donation, folks can enjoy a good meal and check out the fashions found on the racks of the library thrift store. “We’ll have people modeling the clothing and accessories,” Hill said. “And almost everything the models will be wearing will be available at the store.” Hill said the thrift store pulled off an extremely successful fashion show in 2009, and staff thought it was a good time to hit the runway again. The Marble Falls Library Thrift Store, located at the intersection of Avenue J and Third Street, serves as a major funding source for the library. While the city and Burnet County cover some costs, such as salaries and utilities, the library relies on the thrift store for purchasing most, if not all, of its circulating materials, including books, CDs and DVDs. “We just paid for the latest renovation,” Hill said. “And money from the thrift store paid off the thrift store’s mortgage and the library mortgage. This store is extremely important to the library.” Library director Mary Jackson praised the funds the thrift store raises and passes on to the facility through the Friends of the Library group. “We would exist, but there would not be anything to check in or check out without the thrift store funding,” she said. “We would just be an empty building.” While some people associate down-trodden clothing or materials with thrift stores, the Marble Falls Library Thrift Store strives to shatter that image. Hill said staff and volunteers go over

each donated item to ensure it’s worthy of going out on the floor. If you don’t find something you’re looking for during the fashion show, Hill encourages you to stop by the thrift store and browse around for a bit.

“People who haven’t been in here before are really surprised by the selection and quality,” she said. Call (830) 693-5120 for more on the fashion show or the thrift store. daniel@thepicayune.com

MARBLE FALLS — The Marble Falls High School football team will enter the contest at Leander Vandegrift with the aim of playing consistently well for 48 minutes. The Mustangs (2-3 overall, 0-2 in District 25-4A play) have played well for two quarters against Cedar Park and had long stretches of the same in the 29-14 setback to Leander Rouse on Oct. 11. Now, head coach Todd Dodge said it’s time to put all the elements together. “We have four weeks left, 28 days of football,” he said. “We are playing for our playoff lives every week. Our goals are still intact.” The Vipers (6-1, 3-0) are in a tie atop the district standings with Rouse. Vandegrift is on a four-game winning streak, including division victories against Cedar Park Vista Ridge, 28-21; Dripping Springs, 49-10; and Leander, 35-3. The Vipers are led by junior quarterback Jamie Hudson, who has completed 29 of 67 passes for 626 yards, seven touchdowns and two interceptions and rushed 92 times for 660 yards and eight touchdowns. Vipers sophomore running back Travis Brannan has 79 carries for 497 yards and nine touchdowns, and junior running back Christian Reyes has 72

rushes for 309 yards and three touchdowns. Senior receiver Luke Peterman’s 22 receptions for 494 yards and six touchdowns leads the Vipers. No one else has more than six catches. The first quarter of the Mustangs’ loss against Rouse illustrated what Dodge has been preaching to his players. The Mustangs took the opening drive 66 yards in four plays for a touchdown. The drive lasted 62 seconds. Then, the Marble Falls defense turned away the Raiders (6-1, 3-0) when senior safety Carson Bowen recorded the Mustangs’ first interception of the season. And when Marble Falls senior receiver Garrett Gray caught a 38-yard touchdown pass from sophomore quarterback Brennen Wooten for a 14-0 lead, it looked like the Mustangs might

be on their way to earning a victory. “We got off to the kind of start you draw up,” Dodge said. “(The Mustangs) came ready to play. They were absolutely focused.” But two long bombs summarized the second quarter for Marble Falls. One was a dropped pass that went through the receiver’s hands, while officials called the other one an incomplete pass. Had those two plays gone the Mustangs’ way, Dodge said they would have added two more touchdowns. Instead, the Raiders scored a field goal for a 17-14 half-time lead. In the third quarter, the Mustangs had two high snaps, with one giving the Raiders a safety and leading to a field goal on the ensuing drive. The Mustangs had the ball for less than three minutes in the period. “Bottom line is we were in the game,” Dodge said. “But it was over before you could blink an eye.” The coach complimented the defense, noting it didn’t give up explosive plays, swarmed to the ball and forced Rouse to earn every yard. “Really, really encouraged to see our kids on defense play the way they played,” he said. “The best thing our defense did (that night) was they didn’t give up a bunch of explosives. Tackling was so much better.” jfierro@thepicayune.com

MARBLE FALLS — The Marble Falls High School football team was two yards from the end zone against Cedar Park on Oct. 4. The Timberwolves, Class 4A Division II defending state champions, knew the Mustangs called a running play. And they knew who was going to get the ball. So when Mustangs sophomore quarterback Brennen Wooten handed the ball to senior running back Keith Jerome, Cedar Park met the Mustang at the line of scrimmage. Jerome, however, ran through the line and powered his way into pay dirt. He raised his arms in celebration before he pulled himself off the artificial turf. Jerome’s 135 yards on 23 carries was the second-most yards the Timberwolves defense has yielded to a running back this season. Jerome’s effort prompted a loud ovation from Mustangs fans. “I love football,” Jerome said. “I don’t think (the fans) know how much.” If people think his brash play also means a brash personality, they would be wrong. Jerome is soft-spoken, thoughtful and articulate. And meticulous. He has wisely used the offseason. He set goals such

as being a 1,000-yard rusher, helping the Mustangs reach the playoffs for the first time since 2010 and being a team leader. He has spent plenty of time in the weight room, where he has worked to get stronger. He has been on the field fine-tuning his moves and working to get faster from sideline to sideline. And he has traveled to different college football camps with the aim of securing a scholarship to play on the next level. Jerome wrote down his goals, and he reads them every day. And he believes all of them are attainable. “As long as they allow me to do what I got to do, execute and play,” he said. “Everything should go well.” Originally from New Orleans, Jerome moved to the area with his family after Hurricane Katrina forced them to leave the Crescent City when he was in the fifth grade. He’s still getting used to the small town, he said, which means driving more than five minutes to get some things. The reason he started playing running back is because of former New Orleans Saints player Ricky Williams and Cleveland Browns player Trent Richardson. “(Williams) is so physical,” Jerome said. “One person can’t bring him down. He’s powerful. Once he gets to the second level, he’s gone. He can catch out of the backfield.”

One of Jerome’s highest honors was being selected to attend camp at USA Football in July. USA Football selects players from the camps to play for its 19-and-under squad that represents the country in the Team USA vs. The World game. Though Jerome wasn’t selected for the squad, the experience was invaluable, he said, because it gave him a glimpse at what playing after high school is like. Colleges have noticed the running back. He’s been contacted by Louisiana Tech University, San Diego State University, the University of Houston, the University of Tulsa, Houston Baptist University, Texas State University and Baylor University. The son of Kathy Boutee and Keith Jerome Sr. plans to major in kinesiology to either be a coach or a physical therapist. “I want to do sports,” he said. “I don’t want to be sitting behind a desk.” When fans think of him, Jerome said he hopes it’s for two things that require his physical ability and his steadiness and go beyond the big hits and long yards. “Hopefully, I’ll be known as a back who gets the job done,” he said. “And (someone who helps the Mustangs) make it into the playoffs.” jfierro@thepicayune.com

Faith Flames can grab a spot in the playoffs with win BY JENNIFER FIERRO Picayune Staff

MARBLE FALLS — The Faith Academy football team can clinch a playoff spot with a win against the Texas School for the Deaf on Oct. 18. But the Flames are preparing to face a confident opponent, head coach Russ Roberts said.

running back Alvin Anthony and sophomore receiver Dalton Taylor. Roberts said TSD has a true homefield advantage. “They have a nice old stadium right in downtown Austin south of (Lady Bird Lake),” he said. “Texas School for the Deaf is a pretty large campus that has dorms. Officials who go there try to protect the home team. They don’t want you to bounce them around and slap them around. I guarantee they can hit.” The coach said his players will have to have the same approach to

TAPPS members earn points based on wins and the types of opponents they play. “We’re awfully close to having it sealed based off the wild-card spot,” Roberts said. “What we would almost clinch (with the win) is the home playoff game as the district champions.” jfierro@thepicayune.com

this contest they had in the 53-7 victory at Temple Holy Trinity on Oct. 11. “It’s going to require focus, it’s going to require the kids to settle down,” he said. Faith junior Royale Brown scored a total of five touchdowns while rushing for 49 yards and returning a kick for 85 yards in the Oct. 11 game. Roberts said Brown’s speed was too much for the Celtics to handle. Sophomore running back Jacob Metcalf led with six carries for 182 yards.

LLANO — Two teams trying to put disappointing District 8-3A losses behind them will converge at Llano Stadium on Oct. 18. The Yellow Jackets (2-4, 0-1) welcome Lampasas (2-4, 0-1) for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff. Llano fell to Liberty Hill 54-21, while Lampasas lost to Gatesville 45-27 on Oct. 11 to open district play. Llano head coach Craig Slaughter said his players are resilient, and he

trusts they will bounce back from the loss. “I believe in my kids,” he said. “We are looking forward to (Oct. 18) and a new opportunity.” Lampasas running back Gary Spencer leads the rushing attack. He has more than 500 yards during the

season. Logan Irvin is the Badgers quarterback. The Badgers also have a new head coach this season. Brian Emerson took over the program in March. He guided Blanco to the Class 2A Division I state championship in 2001. The one advantage the Yellow Jackets might have is the defense has already faced the same run-oriented scheme Lampasas utilizes. It’s the same as Liberty Hill’s. In Llano’s loss to the Panthers, Liberty Hill took a 14-0 lead before senior running back Carter Tatsch and senior wide receiver Sawyer Stiles got Llano on the scoreboard. Tatsch hit paydirt on a four-yard run, while Stiles took a handoff 17 yards for the score. The Panthers, however, scored on four touchdowns before Llano senior quarterback Layton Rabb ran for a three-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. Rabb, who missed six weeks because of emergency surgery, ran for 60 yards and threw for 160 more, Slaughter said. “It will help his timing,” he said. “We’re glad to have him back.” Slaughter stopped short of saying the loser of the Llano-Lampasas game will miss the playoffs. “No elimination mode yet,” he said. “But it will be a very tough road, no doubt. The road will be much easier and feel much better with a win.” jfierro@thepicayune.com

Burnet hosts Gatesville for tough district game after last-second loss to Brownwood BY JENNIFER FIERRO

Picayune Staff

BURNET — It doesn’t get easier for the Burnet High School football team. The Bulldogs (4-2, 0-1 in District 8-3A play) welcome Gatesville (3-3, 1-0) for the district home opener at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 18. Burnet lost to Brownwood 36-31, while the Hornets crushed Lampasas 45-27, both on Oct. 11. Gatesville is led by running back Jake Kee, who had averaged 10.3 yards a game before Gatesville faced Lampasas. That’s when Kee, the reigning district most valuable player, exploded for 213 yards and three touchdowns. He is the focal point of the Hornets’ offense. “He’s their best offensive player,” Burnet head coach Kurt Jones said. “They try to get him the ball quite a bit.” Quarterback Jeff Speer has thrown for more than 400 yards, while Zac Paskett has more than 200 yards while catching the ball for Gatesville “They get better from week to week,” Jones said. “They know how to win. They, maybe, took a few lumps earlier in the season.” Two special-teams touchdowns by

Brownwood helped the Lions claim the victory against Burnet. The last one might have been especially excruciating. Burnet senior kicker Austin Huff nailed a 36-yard field goal with 14 seconds left to give the Bulldogs a 31-30 lead. After Brownwood’s Conner Howard took the ensuing kickoff in his own end zone, he pitched it to Kaimon Ontiveros, who was at least three yards deep behind the goal line. When Ontiveros hit the goal line, it looked as if the Bulldogs might have him bottled up, but the Lion found some space and worked his way through. Then, the countdown began: 20-yard line, 30-yard line, 40-yard line. It continued until Ontiveros sealed Burnet’s fate with a 103-touchdown return. In the first quarter, Brownwood

tied the game on an 80-yard punt return by Bryan Johnson. Also in the first half, the Bulldogs were set to receive the ball, but a player decided to let the ball bounce off the turf to him. Instead, it bounced away from him and to Brownwood, who recovered the ball for another possession that turned into a touchdown. “The game came down to special teams,” Jones said. “That’s 21 points on special teams.” He added the team emphasizes special teams as much as it does the offensive and defensive schemes. And he put the blame for the outcome on one group. “That’s on us as a coaching staff,” he said, “no matter what’s happening on the field. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to see what happened. We have recognized it. We have to go to work and get the issue straightened out.” The Bulldogs led the Lions in every offensive category. Burnet had a total of 354 offensive yards compared to the Lions’ 201. “I’m very proud of our kids,” the coach said. “They fought and did exactly what we challenged them to do. In the last 15-20 seconds, they did everything to give us a chance to win it.” jfierro@thepicayune.com

FINANCIAL FOCUS: Lessons from "Save for Retirement Week" This article was written by Edward Jones for use by your local Edward Jones Financial Advisor.

Congress has designated the third week in October as National Save for Retirement Week — which means it’s a good time to think about your own retirement savings strategies. To help boost your prospects for a comfortable retirement, consider these suggestions:

Mike Linam

FINANCIAL ADVISOR EDWARD JONES Member

SIPC

First, envision your retirement goals and estimate their costs. Knowing how much you’ll need to accumulate can help you develop appropriate investment strategies. And, of course, contribute as much as you can afford to your IRA and your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored retirement plan. Within these retirement accounts, consider putting appropriate amounts in

growth-oriented vehicles. You’ll also need to review your progress toward your retirement goals. If your portfolio is underperforming, you may need to make some changes. And, in the years immediately preceding your retirement, you may want to shift some dollars into income-producing investments. National Save for Retirement Week comes just once a year. Take its message to heart.

Informational Meeting

MARBLE FALLS — When the race changes from a physical battle to a mental war, Faith Academy cross-country and track runner Sierra Brinkley repeats the same thing to herself. “I try to tell myself the faster I go, the faster it’s over,” she said. “I tell myself how much I have left and keep going.” It is what drives her to finish. It’s also why she is the junior captain of the team, cross-country and track coach Steve McCannon said. “She’s exactly what a captain is supposed to be,” he said. “You need someone on the kids’ level, from being able to talk and going out to performing. She’s a great athlete and a great competitor.” Her leadership comes from her ability to get her teammates to give their best. “I try to be a leader,” she said. “It’s not so much I love running; I love competing. I’m going to try my very best and always compete.” She also plays volleyball and basketball. The junior is the younger sister of former Faith standout Bailey Brinkley, a two-sport athlete known for her drives to the basket as a shooting guard on the basketball team and her speed on sprints and relays. Youngest sister Paris, who is part of a singing duo and is a talented athlete, too, rounds out the trio. The Brinkleys are a tight-knit bunch, which was evident the last two years when Bailey and Sierra played Faith basketball for coach Jerry English, and Paris served as a water girl. To send a message of playing shutdown defense, Sierra follows the example of the Duke men’s basketball team and will slap the floor. Some believe that cross country helps with conditioning for other sports. But the junior knows most people don’t enjoy running just for the sake of running. She joined the cross-country and track teams because Bailey ran track and because of her loyalty to her school, which has a small enrollment. While Sierra isn’t known for her vocalness, she credits McCannon

Tour of Llano City Cemetery is educational — not ghoulish FROM PAGE 1 then writing scripts and producing a living history piece about those families. But Myers wasn’t. “I just really enjoy history,” Myers said. “This was a way to really connect people to Llano’s history and the people who not only lived here but many of the families who still do.” The next year, after word spread about the event and how it worked, more than 200 people took the tour. “We have the interest built now,” Myers said. “We have people contacting the city and the cemetery asking them when is the tour this year.” The tour is Oct. 22 at the cemetery, 1400 Hickory St. The event is 5:307 p.m. with tours leaving every 15 minutes. Each one lasts about an hour and a half. Tickets are $5 (children 16 and under get in free) and can be purchased at the Llano Public Library. This year’s Historical Cemetery Tour features men who served in the Confederate Army and their families. Myers began studying and preparing for the tour months in advance. This isn’t just a walking tour with a guide pointing out a grave, giving a quick monologue about the person and moving on. Instead, history “speaks” during the event. As a guide leads a group through the cemetery, they will stop at certain graves. This year’s tour features eight stops, each with a Confederate connection. At the grave, participants will find either actors playing the parts of the soldier or a family member waiting to share stories. “I do a lot of research on the person and their family, then I write scripts for the (actors),” Myers said. The actors portraying the people dress in period costumes. It’s all done to help bring history to life and give people a connection to Llano’s past. One of the unique things about the tour is many of the individuals selected as stops have direct family connections to families and residents living in Llano and the surrounding area today.

EDUCATION NEWS DURANGO, Colo. — Taylor Coffey of Marble Falls started coursework at Fort Lewis College on Aug. 30. Coffey’s major is anthropology.

“What I’ve found is the families want to be a part of the tour,” Myers said. Through research and talking to family members, Myers has discovered interesting, and often forgotten or unknown, stories. During one walk through the cemetery searching for people to include on a the tour a couple of years ago, Myers came across the grave Theophil Carl “T.C.” Schorlemmer. On each side, she noticed graves for his two wives. As she began looking into Schorlemmer’s life, his story and those of his wives opened up. “What I learned was his first wife died leaving him with several children,” Myers said. “His second wife ended up raising the children. Here were these two women who were tied

together through T.C. and his children, but they never knew each other.” So during the cemetery tour, Myers had Cheryl Crabtree portray Maria Schorlemmer and JoAnn Costa portray Augusta Schorlemmer. The two women sat in chairs next to the graves and chatted. “During the cemetery tour, I had the two talking to each other about their lives, the children and everything,” Myers said. “It turned out to be very powerful because here you had these two women so connected but who had never met.” This year, Myers is focusing on individuals with Confederate connections. She located eight men buried in the cemetery who served in the Confederate Army and lived in Llano.

6th Annual

But it’s not just about the eight men. Myers learned about the men’s families and the struggles they faced while soldiers were away fighting. “When I was looking into this, it sounds like so few men were left in the county (during the war) that the women faced some serious challenges,” Myers said. “This was still a frontier town at the time. Back then, it was a pretty scary time. So along with the soldiers, we’re also going to look at what the women and families dealt with during this time.” While the tour starts in the evening, it’s neither scary or ghoulish. As the sun settles, volunteers illuminate the cemetery with translucent lights, adding to the atmosphere. Nobody is out to scare anybody, but, instead, the

point is to share stories of Llano’s past through the eyes and voices of the residents. “We just want to bring these stories to all the people who may have never known about them,” Myers said. “You know, I hated history when I was a kid because you just sat in some room while somebody lectured to you. But as I started delving into local history and started making connections to it, I’ve come to love it, especially with things like the tour where history comes to life. Sometimes it takes experiencing history to really appreciate it.” Call the library at (325) 247-5248 or stop by at 102 E.

OCTOBER 16, 2013

LLANO — Visitors to Llano on Oct. 18-20 might feel like they’ve transported back in time. Between the stagecoaches, chuck-wagon cooks and wild cow milking, it’s difficult to argue against the idea. Instead, the city is celebrating Llano Heritage Weekend with events all over town. “The main event is Saturday, and that is the chuck-wagon meal and Heritage Day on the square,” said Doris Messer, community development director for the city of Llano. The meal, which costs $15, features 12 chuck wagons this year in Badu Park at noon. Cooks compete in categories such as chuck-wagon authenticity, meat, beans, potatoes, bread and dessert. “Every year it’s getting slimmer and slimmer,” Messer said of the number of chuck-wagon cooks, and not the portions. “It’s a dying art. For the folks that have chuck wagons, it’s a lot of work.” The courthouse square will be bustling with activity starting at 9 a.m. with vendors, the Legends of Texas

historical re-enactors and a quilt display. A free street dance keeps the day going until almost midnight with musician Bobby Flores. Also Saturday evening, starting at 6 p.m., is the Ranch Rodeo at the Llano Events Center, 2200 RR 152. The rodeo features bronc riding, branding, mutton bustin’, team sorting, trailer loading and wild cow milking. “It’s interesting to look at how folks work in the field,” Messer said. One of the biggest events of the whole weekend might be unexpected. “It may be the biggest draw this year … the Western Trappings (on the Llano),” she said. “Western trappings means any medium that shows a Western heritage. It could be bits, spurs, painting, clothing.” More than 70 artists from 20 states and three countries have submitted items, Messer said. The exhibition is displayed in the Llano County Museum, 310 Texas 16, and is free to the public beginning at 9 a.m. Oct. 19. Visit www.llanoheritagefestival. com for more information on the weekend. jared@thepicayune.com

LLANO — The grounds of Lutie Watkins Memorial United Methodist Church recently turned a bit orange. But don’t worry, the condition only spreads a pumpkin or two at a time. “Yeah, this is the first time I’ve actually organized one of these,” said Brock Bomkamp, the church youth director. “I did some when I was a member of the youth group, but I’ve never actually put one together. I think it’s going to be a lot of fun.” Bomkamp is describing the church’s Pumpkin Patch. From Oct. 16 to Oct. 31, people can pick the perfect pumpkin during the Methodist youth fundraiser. The pumpkins, of all shapes and sizes, arrived Oct. 14, and volunteers laid them out across the lawn and courtyard of the church, 800 Wright St. (just west of the courthouse square.) “I’m really not sure how many we’ll be getting, but they told me it’s about a quarter of a semi-truck load,” Bomkamp said. Methodist youth groups and ministries use the pumpkin patches as fundraisers for their events, trips and mission projects. It’s a signature event for many of them, but this is the first time as far as Bomkamp knows that Lutie Watkins Memorial hosted one. “The kids are excited about doing this,” the youth director said. He said about 45-50 junior high and high school youth typically attend the teen-oriented programs. The church pumpkin patch is open 12:30-8 p.m. Bomkamp said closing time will probably reflect the changing sunsets though. “ We ’ r e r e a d y t o s t a r t , ” Bomkamp said about the pumpkin patch. Call the church at (325) 2474009 for more information. daniel@thepicayune.com

SUNRISE BEACH — With a spin of the cage, Sunrise Beach Volunteer Fire Department Chief Jim Miiller mixed up a batch of tickets. As the cage came to a rest, inside sat the winning ticket for a $500 VISA gift card. A few seconds later, a member of the Sunrise Beach Volunteer Fire Department Ladies Auxiliary was on the phone with the winner. Then, it was on to the second batch of tickets and another winner of a $500 gift card and, finally, one more drawing — this time for a Savage Arms .257 Roberts rifle. “This is our big fundraiser of the year,” ladies auxiliary president Mary Williams said. “And the way it looks, we’ll bring in at least $7,500 for the department from it.” For the small, all-volunteer unit, that amount significantly contributes to the department’s $50,000 budget. “The auxiliary does a tremendous job supporting us,” Miiller said. “We depend on fundraising like this one the ladies put together for our budget.” The department, which consists of between 38 and 42 volunteers, provides fire coverage for the city of Sunrise Beach and the surrounding rural area. Along with fire protection, Miiller said the department also responds to all medical calls to which an ambulance is sent. The volunteer department serves the village of about 800 residents.

The auxiliary members sold 900 tickets as a fundraiser for the department. The prizes included two $500 gift cards and a Savage Arms bolt-action rifle. STAFF PHOTO BY DANIEL CLIFTON

Williams said the department hosts two fundraisers earlier in the year. In the past, the ladies auxiliary held a flea market to raise money, but that was previously nixed. The ladies came up with the idea of the three-prong prize drawing. Members sold tickets for $15 each or $50 for five. But the tickets weren’t all thrown in one pot. The auxiliary members gave the donor a choice of buying a ticket for the $500 gift card or the rifle, which, with a scope, is valued at about $500. When tickets for the gift card sold out, the auxiliary members decided it was going so well, they purchased another one and sold more tickets

exclusively for it. The auxiliary limited the number of tickets sold per item to 300. “We sold them all,” Williams said. “So this turned out to be a great idea. I think it went well.” Not only did it go well for the auxiliary and the fire department, but the three people answering their phones about 10 a.m. Oct. 10, the day of the drawing, probably thought it also was a success. “The community has been great supporting us and the department,” Williams said. daniel@thepicayune.com

Dip in your oars and clean up Inks Lake’s shores BY DANIEL CLIFTON Picayune Editor

H O O V E R ’ S VA L L E Y — Whether intentional or not, Inks Lake gets a bit “trashy” during the year. But on Oct. 19, you can do something about it. Inks Lake State Park is hosting a canoe and kayak shore cleanup 2-4 p.m. “During the summer, a lot of trash ends up on the lake,” park interpreter Sean Jones said. “And the way the wind blows and the lake’s geography is, a lot of it ends up here in the cove.”

Inks Lake, one of the smallest of the Highland Lakes chain, might not get the traffic Lake LBJ gets, but it still enjoys robust attention. Unfortunately, because of its size and geography, trash often gets funneled into the water. While there are many homes along the shore, a portion of the lake remains undeveloped, and garbage can get caught up in the trees and bushes at the edge of the water. During the clean-up, Jones said the park will provide “grabbers” and trash bags. The park does have a limited number of canoes and kayaks, but people with their own are encouraged to bring them. “We’ll just head out and clean up the shoreline and lake,” Jones said. “It’s something we like to do, especially now that summer is over.”

There is no fee to participate in the clean-up, but park entrance fees apply. The fees are $6 for people 13 and older; $3 for people 65 and older; and free for children 12 and under. People should meet behind the park store. The park is located at 3630 Park Road 4 West in Burnet County. Contact Jones at sean.jones@tpwd. texas.gov or (512) 793-2223 for more information. Other activities at Inks Lake State Park include: ■ Sunset Cruise, Oct. 17 and 18 from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Tour the lake from Inks Dam to Buchanan Dam on electric boats. Pre-registration required; $20 for adults, $16 for Texas State Park Pass holders and $16 for senior adults and children.

■ Fishing with the Ranger, Oct. 18 from 6-7 p.m. Everybody is welcome to the free, catch-and-release instructional program. No license required for adults while fishing on state property. Room for up to 30 participants. The park does have some poles and worms available. No cost except park entrance fee. No reservations required. ■ Stumpy Hollow Hike, Oct. 19 from 9:30-10:30 a.m. A Highland Lakes Master Naturalist guides this one-hour hike. People can learn about the various wildlife habitats and vegetation. The program is free, but park entrance fees apply. Meet at the Pecan Flats trailhead. daniel@thepicayune.com

games. We all play and talk, just have a great time.” Participants can dig out board games that might not have seen the table top in years or grab a favorite as they head out the door. Hunter plans on playing some bridge during the event.

“I’d say bridge is my favorite game,” she said. “I just enjoy it.” People can join in different games throughout the day. Along with rekindling a love of a game or discovering a new one, it’s also a great chance to strike up new friendships. While the UMW of Marble Falls is sponsoring the event, Hunter said it’s open to everyone. “You just want to have a good time,” she said. The proceeds go to support local nonprofits and mission projects, Hunter added. Call Hunter at (830) 693-6029 to reserve a table or for more information. daniel@thepicayune.com

Hill Country Marathon is for more than just runners BY DANIEL CLIFTON Picayune Editor

MARBLE FALLS — Let the running begin. Or, at least, let it start Oct. 20 for the first Hill Country Marathon. The course winds its way from Marble Falls High School’s Mustang Stadium, 2101 Mustang Drive, north through some of the best scenery in the area as well as over a couple of challenging hills. But that’s what race organizers were looking for when they came up with the Hill Country Marathon. Brad Quinn, one of the minds behind the event, said he and co-conspirator Josue Stephens wanted to create a marathon that not only challenges competitors but gives them great views to enjoy while pounding out 26-plus miles. “I think we have one of the best marathon venues you can ask for,” Quinn recently said. If a marathon is just a bit beyond your limits, the Hill Country Marathon offers three other options: a half-marathon, a 10-kilometer run, and, for families or kids, the Phoenix Fun Run that features a one-mile run/walk along a gravel path between the high school and Colt Elementary School. “We wanted to make something that

wasn’t just a marathon but an event everybody, everyone in the family, could come out and enjoy,” Quinn said. As marathoners and half-marathoners hit the road about 7 a.m. with the 10K runners 15 minutes later, live music will help them find their groove. And, as the competitors head out of sight, the non-runners can continue to enjoy the music as well as numerous vendors and food booths. Part of the proceeds from the marathon, half-marathon and 10K will go to Serve Who Serve, a local nonprofit that assists military families. But all the proceeds from the Phoenix Fun Run will go to The Phoenix Center, a Marble Falls organization that provides high-quality mental healthcare for children. “We’re really excited to be a part of the Hill Country Marathon,” said Sarah Rosen Garrett, The Phoenix Center founder and executive director. “The course (for the one-mile fun run) is great for jogging strollers. And the fun run isn’t just for kids and families, anyone is welcome.” The entry fee for the Phoenix Fun Run is $15 per person, but Garrett said some scholarships are available for families who might not be able to afford the full cost. Along with the running events,

people can enjoy the Hill Country Marathon Vendor Faire from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the high school stadium. Garrett said there will be several other features, including arts-and-crafts booths for kids at no charge. “We just want people to come out and have fun,” she said. As for the marathon, half-marathon and 10K, the entries continue rolling in. “We expect anywhere between 400 and 500 runners,” Quinn said. He admitted the number was a bit more than expected for a first-year event, though it’s great to see the interest. The race recently earned a boost when USA Track and Field Association officials certified the course, and it earned the distinction of becoming a Boston Marathon qualifying race. “Now, not everybody wants to run the Boston Marathon, but pretty much everybody likes to say they qualified for the Boston Marathon,” Quinn said. Registration for the marathon, the half-marathon and the 10K remains open until Oct. 18. Go to www.runthehillcountry.com to register or for more information. The event starts at Mustang Stadium. Parking for the race and corresponding activities will be in the visitor’s parking lot off Manzano Mile between the high school and Colt Elementary School.

Expert on Texas drought to discuss local, state water issues BY DANIEL CLIFTON Picayune Editor

MEADOWLAKES — The current Texas drought doesn’t know political lines, so members of the Highland Lakes Democratic Women hope anybody interested in learning about the situation and the possible future implications will attend the club’s meeting and presentation Oct. 24 at the Hidden Falls Golf Club restaurant. “This is going to be about the water issues and what the drought’s impact

has been and could continue to be on Texas and right here in our area,” club president Ravelle Kundinger said. The club is hosting Alyssa Burgin, co-founder and director of the Texas Drought Project. The organization draws from experts in ranching, farming, hydrology, civil engineering, climatology and environmental science to gather information about the impacts of droughts and discuss how they impact local communities as well as the state. “I think one of the things we’re interested in is learning about the cur-

rent water supply in Texas but also what happens and what we can do if this drought continues,” club publicity chairwoman Marilyn Harris said. “It’s something everybody has an interest and stake in.” One of the initiatives voters face in the upcoming Nov. 5 election is a Texas constitutional amendment authorizing the creation of the State Water Implementation Fund for Texas and the State Water Implementation Revenue Fund for Texas. Officials said these funds would allow the state to develop

future water resources. If Texans approve the measure, listed as Proposition 6 on the ballot, state leaders could transfer $2 billion out of the “rainy day fund” for the creation of a water implementation fund. According to Gov. Rick Perry’s office, no state taxes would increase as a result of creating the fund. Kundinger said, along with speaking about the current drought situation, Burgin will probably talk about Proposition 6 and how it could impact future water resources.

The meeting starts at 11:30 a.m. with Burgin’s discussion beginning about noon. The restaurant is located at 220 Meadowlakes Drive in Meadowlakes. Marble Falls Independent School District board of trustee member Kelly Fox also will give a short presentation on the upcoming school bond election that is on the Nov. 5 ballot.

‘Slingin’ Sam’ biographer coming to Marble Falls for Lunch with an Author BY DANIEL CLIFTON Picayune Editor

MARBLE FALLS — When Joe Holley of the Houston Chronicle worked for the Washington Post several years ago, he kept hearing about former Washington Redskins football player Sam Baugh.

“I would come across or hear something about Sam Baugh,” Holley said while on assignment in Paducah. “Now, you have to understand, Sam Baugh hadn’t played ball for about 60 years.” But Holley and Baugh shared something in common. Both hailed from the Lone Star State, though

their careers led them to the nation’s capital. Baugh, who helped usher in the modern era of football when the forward pass became a legitimate form of moving the ball, set numerous records for passing, rushing and punting while playing for the Redskins. Many of which still stand.

“I wondered, ‘What happened to Sam Baugh,’” Holley said. He approached his editor about going to Texas, finding Baugh and writing an article about the former Redskin and Texas Christian University quarterback. He found the former athlete, who actually spent more time as a working cowboy than a profession football player, in a Jayton (Texas) nursing home. Instead of a man enamored with himself, Holley discovered someone who lived humbly. “A lot of people who knew him as a cowboy didn’t even know he ever played football,” Holley said. “That’s the way he was. As famous as he was, he never took himself serious.” Soon, Holley realized Baugh’s life, both off and on the field, warranted more than an article. Off and on for the next five years, Holley put Baugh’s life into the pages of a book. In 2012, Holley’s book, “Slingin’ Sam: The Life and Times of the Greatest Quarterback Ever to Play the Game,” hit bookstore shelves. Holley, who now writes editorials and the column “Native Texan” for the Houston Chronicle, will be in Marble Falls on Oct. 18 for the Marble Falls Public Library’s Lunch with an Author series. The event starts at 11:30 a.m. at the library, 101 S. Main St. Reservations are required and can be made by calling the library at (830) 693-3023. Admission is free, but a donation is appreciated to help defray the cost of the meal. “We like having these programs because it brings an author into the community, but it also is a chance to introduce people to other genres or types of books,” library director Mary Jackson said. “It’s a great opportuni-

ty for people to hear from an author about his or her book and what went into writing it.” Along with sharing his experiences as an author and a columnist, Holley said he hopes people who attend also learn about the times in which Baugh lived. The story spans several decades from the 1930s through the 1950s, when both the country and Texas endured the Great Depression, World War II and a major drought. While Baugh was alive during part of the time Holley was researching the man’s biography, the author said the former quarterback’s health was such he couldn’t really contribute much to the book. So, Holley relied on other sources, including one of Baugh’s sons, David. But no matter whose door Holley knocked on while working on the book, once he mentioned Baugh’s name, he earned a good reception, and usually a good story. “And whenever the story about Baugh ended, the person was usually smiling,” Holley said. Baugh passed away in 2008. Along with the book on Baugh, Holley has written a novel about Texas politics, “The Purse Bearer,” that is scheduled to be published in 2014. His “Native Texan” columns can be found at www.joe-holley.com or on his Facebook page. The library will have copies of Holley’s book available for purchase during the Lunch with an Author event. daniel@thepicayune.com
