‘There’s nothing else’: County Council says sales tax is needed JARLEENE ALMENAS

301125-1

Rebuilding public trust continues to be a focus for the Volusia County Council, as the May special election for the half-cent sales tax approaches.

Volusia County is currently holding public meetings around the county to gather public input on the proposed list of projects to be funded by the sales tax, should it pass. At the County Council meeting on Tuesday, March 5, Councilwoman Barbara Girtman brought up the topic of trust during her final comments. She said she had met with five citizens after the sales tax project meeting in DeLand the night before, and that some young people voiced concerns about the citizens advisory review committee that will be formed to review how the sales tax funds are spent.

Girtman said they wanted to know what “teeth” the committee will have.

“To have people that young not trusting local government — I think we have a little work to do,” Girtman said.

Council Chair Ed Kelley said the committee will be made up of one person appointed by each city. He said the council is putting the half-cent sales tax on the ballot at the request of all 16 municipalities. The council is the only government entity that could put it on the ballot, he said.

T:10” “It’s not a County Councildriven initiative,” Kelley said.

County Councilman Ben Johnson said impact fees continue to be discussed, despite the fact that fees have already been raised.

“We booted it,” Johnson said.

“We’ve admitted we booted it. But we went back on that and tried to correct it as best we could, and it’s going to be corrected in years to come, and somewhere along the line, we have to bury this history and say, ‘Let’s go ahead. What’s best for the county?’”

Going with a half-cent sales tax is the best option Volusia has to address its infrastructure and water quality needs, Johnson said. The other option would be raising the ad valorem taxes. He said the council is working to fix the lack of trust. That’s why he said there needs to be people on the committee who will have voted against the sales tax.

Trust is a two-way street, said County Councilman Fred Lowry.

He said residents can’t get their information from social media and understand what is going on in government. If the county had raised impact fees every year since 2003, Lowry said Volusia would be in the same position it is today.

Kelley said there is no other way to create funds that are able to be bonded and are partially generated (35% to 40%, according to Kelley) by visitors. Impact fees couldn’t fix 90% of the requested infrastructure projects.

“There’s nothing else,” Kelley said. “This is it.”

After OB Life feedback, Ormond Beach City Commission focuses on strategies for the city’s ...

GROWTH AND CHARM

JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

ith an update to the city’s strategic plan officially underway, Ormond Beach Mayor Bill Partington believes future is bright.

“I’m excited about the opportunities that lie ahead of us,” he said, “and, with opportunities, obviously come challenges, and we have to make sure we’re careful as we move forward.”

The Ormond Beach City Commission, along with city staff, held a workshop on Wednesday, Feb. 27, to update the city’s strategic plan in accordance with the citizen feedback gathered at the six-part series of OB Life civic engagement workshops that started last summer. Ormond Beach began formally adopting a strategic plan in 2015, according to a city memo. Having a plan in place helps direct staff regarding where to focus resources, and instructs them on what to do moving forward.

Ormond Beach City Manager Joyce Shanahan said it’s a good time of year to update the strategic plan, since it gives staff time to begin budgeting for the commission’s outlined priorities.

At the workshop on Feb. 27, the commission identified 10 goals based on citizen input gathered

during OB Life, all of which fall under seven categories: economic development, water quality and the environment, transportation, public safety, community development, quality of life, and governance. Some of the top priorities included investing $1 million to transition 700 homes in the north peninsula from septic to sewer, the Hand Avenue extension, and developing an annexation policy and strategy for future growth.

Since the economy and surrounding community has changed since 2015, Partington said the identified goals are reflecting the city wants to have “quality sustainable growth” while maintaining Ormond’s “small town charm.”

“When you see the big areas that we focused on — transpor-

tation, economic development, environment, all those things — behind them, you’re thinking about how do we keep our small town charm but still have a vibrant city with lots of opportunities for cultural, historical and artistic engagement?” Partington said.

One objective identified as a priority by the commission was completing a feasibility study for a new police station and emergency operations center, and identify funding. The current police station in the downtown is not in an ideal location during a storm because it’s in a flood zone, Partington said. It’s also in need of expensive repairs, he added, and building a new facility would make more sense.

Other objectives included the

Develop an annexation policy and strategy for future growth.

Continue bringing and retaining highwage jobs and business to the city.

Invest $1 million for Septic to Sewer phase 1 in the north peninsula.

Update Parks and Recreation Master Plan.

TOP COMMISSION PRIORITIES

city working with the private sector to bring emergency services back to the beachside and updating the Parks and Recreation master plan, which hasn’t been updated since 2004.

Also, even with Margaritaville pulling the plug on its 3,000home phase 2, the city still needs another road alternative to Granada Boulevard, Partington said. The commission identified the Hand Avenue Extension project, estimated to cost $24.8 million, as a top priority.

“As the only true east-west alternative to Granada out there where it’s so congested at certain times a day, it’s something that I feel like we held off as long as we could doing it, but it’s time to do that,” Partington said.

Shanahan said that the workshop process began with the citizens telling them what they’d like to see through OB Life. The commission reviewed it and identified overall goals, and staff will soon formalize a plan for the commission to adopt. She estimates it will reach the commission sometime in April.

“The leadership starts at the commission level, and many communities are afraid to ask for that input, but this commission is courageous and dedicated to this community,” said Shanahan at the workshop. “I think it’s a worthwhile effort.”

City to hire full-time PIO JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

With the City Commission wanting to improve public information outreach, the city is hoping to add a full-time public information officer to its staff — something it hasn’t had since 2007.

In the strategic planning workshop held on Feb. 27, the commission identified that improving its outreach through social media, press releases and other methods was one of the 10 priorities for its strategic plan. The PIO staff position was cut during the recession, and duties were combined with the city’s grant writer. At the financial trends workshop on Tuesday, March 5, City Manager Joyce Shanahan said a lot of other cities in Volusia also eliminated the position during the recession, but have since rehired.

“Quite honestly, we’re just not getting out there,” Shanahan said.

Shanahan said that’s because Ormond Beach doesn’t have someone dedicated to manning the city’s social media and website. Compared to 2007, staffing levels in the city are still low. In 2007, the city had 426 employees, and in 2019, it has 373.

City Commissioner Susan Persis supported hiring a PIO, and said it needs to be “the right person.”

“There are so many wonderful things happening here in Ormond Beach ... and we just need to brag about it all the time,” Persis said. “We need a cheerleader out there.”

Mayor Bill Partington stressed the importance of hiring someone well-versed in all forms of social media. He said all posted content has to “accurate and appropriate.”

The position’s salary could range anywhere from $40,000 to upwards of $70,000, as Shanahan said cities like DeLand and Port Orange pay $52,000 and $54,000, respectively. Daytona Beach pays $90,000.

FOOD TRUCK WORKSHOP CANCELED

CITY COMMISSION AND STAFF PRAISE OB LIFE SERIES While many cities merely give “lip service” to strategic planning, moderator Marilyn Crotty said the OB Life series showed that Ormond Beach is serious.

“For Ormond, it really is a way of doing business,” said Crotty, who later suggested the city submit the OB Life series for a civic engagement award.

Though timing is important with budgeting for the next fiscal year, so is following through with citizen input after OB Life, she said.

What she got from reading the summaries was that the citizens wanted to maintain small town character, and balance quality of life with appropriate growth.

“If you hear from a lot of your citizens about certain things, to ignore that then puts you up for criticism,” she said.

Crotty pointed out the waning attendance at the meetings, and asked the

commission what they thought about it.

Kent said the city held OB Life because the commission wanted citizen input, and that there was a “small group of people” that were upset about a development, which prompted the large crowd at the first meeting.

“Some of them didn’t like that there’s something called property rights,” Kent said.

“If they wanted to buy the property and keep it in its indigenous state, fine.”

Attendance dropped because people learned “another side to the story,” he said.

“When you start listening to people, and hearing both sides of the story, the story changes,” Kent said.

Shanahan said that despite the low attendance at the later meetings, it’s still more citizen engagement than what the city saw in 2015 with its community conversations workshops. Those

workshops were attended by about 125 people; OB Life had an overall attendance of 667, counting repeat attendees.

The city is looking into submitting this for an award, Shanahan added. There are local ones within the City Managers Association, the Florida League of Cities and some civic engagement processes awards that OB Life could be eligible for.

“I think [Crotty] feels like other cities could replicate

this process and be equally successful,” Shanahan said.

Crotty asked the commission how it was dealing with “uproar” over the clearcutting at Granada Pointe in regards to future development in the city. Kent answered her with a question — which uproar? Granada Pointe or Ormond Crossings where he said twice as many trees were cut.

“Oh that’s right, there was no uproar for that one,” Kent said.

Mayor Bill Partington said he believes that, other than leaving a buffer, there wasn’t another way to develop the property due to the fill it required.

“I think, in all honesty, that’s how development is done these days,” Partington said.

The upcoming food truck workshop on May 21 was canceled.

City Manager Joyce Shanahan at first suggested they have the meeting, as planned, but Mayor Bill Partington said it wasn’t necessary because the direction was clear at the last meeting: Open it to as many areas as possible.

“Did you listen to the tape or...?” Partington asked Shanahan. “When we left the meeting, everyone had what they needed.”

In the Feb. 5 workshop, some commissioners and planning board members expressed concerns over food trucks. Planning Board member Mike Scudiero called it “an edible version of itinerant vending” and City Commissioner Troy Kent said he was more comfortable handling food trucks on a case by case basis. In an email to the Ormond Beach Observer, Partington said four out of the five commissioners were “very pro-food truck” and directed staff to come back with rules to expand their use in the city.

RECYCLING FEE TO INCREASE

The commission also approved 5-0 on second reading to increase recycling collection fees. Starting April 1, residents will pay $1.21 more monthly, going from $3.47 to $4.68.

DERRICK BRANTLEY, manual therapist

MARCH

Back in Balance Bodywork has opened at 50 S. Yonge St., Suite 4, for those seeking relief from pain.

Derrick Brantley, manual message therapist, calms nerve receptors to control pain using a technique called RAPID. Brantley said his patients are often recommended to him by another professional such as message therapists, physical therapists, acupuncturists, etc.

“We all work together,” he said.

“If I can’t help someone, I send them to someone who can.”

Before opening the office, Brantley worked at other clinics for two years, learning from chiropractors and others. He developed a clientele after he learned the RAPID technique.

“My business really took off,” he said. “That’s my niche.”

He has worked with whip-

“I get a lot of people off pain pills,” he said.

His practice is different from traditional massage. Clients do not come to relax, but rather for specific issues that need to be resolved.

His No. 1 client category is laborers, then nurses and then, surprising to some, hair stylists.

Brantley said stylists must hold a hair dryer, wheel people around in chairs and can suffer from repetitive strain injury.

Brantley, from DeLand, chose Ormond Beach because the demographics show people are interested in health and wellness.

Also, he draws clients from north on south along the Interstate 95 corridor.

“It’s a very welcoming community,” he said. “You go to a restaurant and people know your name.”

He hopes to build his business and open a clinic with a staff.

Clients come for five to 10 sessions, and return as needed. It’s a cash business.

The median sales price of single-family homes in the Daytona Beach area rose nicely in January after some stagnation of prices in December while the number of sales dropped, according to an analysis of MLS data by Daytona Beach area Realtor Ron Wysocarski, broker and CEO of Wyse Home Team Realty in Port Orange.

For January, the Multiple Listing Service reported that 275 existing singlefamily homes were sold with a median home sales price of $238,000. That’s a 10% increase in median sales prices and more than a 6% drop in sales compared to the same month a year ago.

Wyse also analyzed data for key areas where homebuyers shop. For example, the median sales price of beachside homes is up by more than 30% to $340,000 from just $259,900 in January, 2018, MLS data shows.

Wyse also said that as temperatures plummeted across the Daytona Beach area in January, so did condo sales and prices.

An analysis of MLS data showed there were just 79 condo units sold around the Daytona Beach area in January. There were 100 sold in the same month one year ago.

Median sales prices also fell hard in January. MLS reports show the median condo sales price around the Daytona Beach area in January was $176,000, down 17% from the same month last year, $212,500.

Volusia County Drug Court graduates 25 in Ormond Beach

THURSDAY, MARCH 7, 2019

Residents hope to unite community through discourse

Since 1997, the drug court program has had a 77% success rate.

JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

The Seventh Judicial Circuit’s 76th Volusia County Adult Drug Court Commencement Ceremony celebrated 24 graduates at the Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center on Wednesday, Feb. 27.

Held in conjunction with the 40th Commencement Ceremony of the Volusia County Misdemeanor DUI Court, which had one more graduate, the graduation recognized those who successfully completed the programs.

The program began in Volusia County in 1997, and more than 1,000 people have graduated since, Court Communications Officer Ludmilla Lelis wrote in an email. Over the years, 77% of the graduates have had no new drug charges within two years of completing the program.

“That is a better success rate than felons released from prison, without having undergone this kind of stringent program,” Lelis said.

The drug court program is offered to people with nonviolent arrests whose criminal behavior is fueled by alcohol or substance abuse. Program participants regularly meet with a judge, get substance abuse treat-

ment, attend group meetings and are drug tested. Some take longer than others to complete the program — one of the recent grads started drug court in 2014.

“When participants come into the program, we advise them that drug court is not the easy way out,” Judge Dawn Nichols said.

“In fact, all of these folks will tell you — drug court is difficult.”

Nichols said the graduates had accumulated a total of 24,780 clean days, equal to 69.5 years.

Marcha Jo Harris was the only person to graduate from DUI court. She said she is a changed woman after completing the program, which she started in April 2018. Harris said she’d known that she would die at some point because of her drinking, but the program gave her the tools to stop.

She said drinking again would be suicide.

She has a new life now. She’s been clean for 320 days.

“I fought the law, and the law won,” Harris said.

Drug court also helped Randy Jatman, who began the program in December 2017. He had been abusing drugs and alcohol for more than 25 years, and had been in and out of jail since he was 16.

Had this program been available to him a long time ago, he said, he would have been exposed to tools that would have taught teach him to be a productive person rather than a criminal and addict.

Since entering drug court, Jatman regained his driver’s license, paid off the restitution he owed, reconnected with his family and started a new business. He never tested positive for drugs while in drug court, and graduated with 434 clean days.

“Prison and jail only put your life on hold,” Jatman said. “This program helps you change your life.”

No two of us are alike.

Three Ormond Beach residents are hoping to bring the community together by starting a civil discourse group.

Linda Williams, Bill Denny and Ann Long are inviting residents of all viewpoints to engage in moderated discussion about local issues and topics.

Williams plans to model the meetings on the University of Arizona’s National Institute for Civil Discourse’s Initiative to Revive Civility, which is described on its webpage as “a national grassroots effort that highlights the need to change the tone of our current politics and suggests specific things that each individual can do to help make that happen,” using small group dialogues and engagement with elected officials, among other tactics.

The group will employ five practices for its discussions: humility, solidarity with conversation partners, leading with what you stand for, avoiding binary thinking, and dismissive words and phrases.

“I think the problem is we have just handed over our discourse — our debates — to polarization, to extremes, and then nobody wins,” Williams said.

Denny, who attends almost every meeting of the City Commission and various city advisory boards, stressed the importance of having a “rounded group” with

all viewpoints.

He and Williams met during a Walk with the City Manager event, where they talked about local issues.

“Next thing I knew, she was up there talking to the City Commission, and I respected her just to do that,” Denny said.

Long, a retired attorney, also cited her respect for Williams as her reason for joining the effort.

She said she is also concerned about the country.

“I’m here tonight trying to figure out ... if there’s some little way in which I can make my country a better place and keep it from going, from devolving, into a bad place,” Long said. “An undemocratic place. A corrupt place.”

Williams believes solutions for bettering the community can be reached by getting a diverse group of people together to come up with creative ideas.

“Even though that is a tall order, that is what we are going for,” William said.

Why you shouldn’t give to panhandlers Charity donations are a more effective way to help.

That way, you know where the money is going.

JOE HANNOUSH GUEST WRITER

Have you been approached by someone asking you if you can spare a dollar or two while at a gas station, parking lot or stopped at a red light? Sure, we all have. Have you ever given a panhandler any money? Maybe you have. Do you ever wonder how it was spent it? Was it for gas or food? We’ve all heard it or have read the signs: “I just need a few bucks for gas to get home,” “hungry” or “why lie? I need a beer.”

Who ‘bought’ the car wash decision?

Dear Editor: Well, let’s review. The Ormond Beach city staff recommended that the car wash at Granada Pointe not be approved. The Ormond Beach Planning Board recommended that the car wash should not be approved based on the fact that it did not fit within the city’s comprehensive plan. Yet, the recently re-elected City Commission voted to approve the car wash proposed by the developer, in an amendment to his original Planned Business Development.

Susan Persis, the newly elected commissioner voted against the majority. Commissioner Dwight Selby was absent.

With this action, they overruled the city staff and the Planning Board as well as the majority of local citizens.

More than 200 local citizens voted on a survey presented by Suzanne Scheiber, that did not approve a car wash at this site and instead voted in favor of sit-down restaurants, bakeries and specialty food shops.

When we review the City Commission elections of 2018, we can clearly see that the incumbents (three out of four

Some of you may have heard about the new panhandling ordinance that just went into effect in Daytona Beach. But the new ordinance the Daytona Beach City Commission passed doesn’t solve the problem.

More government involvement rarely does. It’s merely moved to surrounding cities, like Ormond Beach. You probably already have noticed an increase in panhandling here.

What you may not have noticed is a new “homeless donation meter” in Daytona Beach, where residents and tourists can now give money to help local homeless programs like Halifax Urban Ministries, First Step Shelter, Travelers Aid Program and Hope Place. Ten such meters have been donated to Daytona Beach by IPS Group Inc., a meter company headquartered in San Diego,

of the sitting commissioners as well as the mayor) were well-funded by local developers including Paul Holub.

Their opponents fought a good election fight but were outfinanced about 5 to 1. Let’s face it. It’s hard to overcome a 5-to1 war chest in a local election.

Supporters of the incumbents were even able to post traffic-direction signage along Granada Boulevard in their favor a few days before the election.

So, it seems to me that the car wash decision was certainly influenced (maybe not bought and paid for, but influenced) by campaign contributions.

The next question is this: Will we allow these incumbent city commissioners and mayor to sit complacent for four more years, or refuse their self-serving referendum during the May mail-in ballot?

California. These meters have the ability to collect donations

by Visa or Master Card (minus a small transaction fee), as well as pocket change. Dr. L Ronald Durham, community relations manager for Daytona Beach, was featured in a video introducing this new program.

The First Step homeless shelter being built on International Speedway Boulevard is well over the original estimated cost of between $2 and $3 million when funding by local municipalities was approved, and now sits at $6 million.

Ormond Beach City Commission approved $82,000 of taxpayer funds toward the First Step shelter in July 2017. But the First Step shelter is losing about $7,600 per month due to salary and other expenses.

The funding gap will have to be provided by the private sector.

If not, taxpayers may in fact be forced to pay again. Will Big Business, which has received tax breaks by local government

at the expense of other taxpayers in recent years, totaling more than the cost of the shelter, take the first step to meet the funding gap? Not likely.

If you want to actually solve a perceived problem, more government and more Big Business influence won’t fix it. If it did, those problems wouldn’t exist.

It starts with you.

If you are like most people, you want to help the homeless but not see the panhandlers.

The best way to start is by no longer handing over cash to those on the street and instead donate to your favorite charity. Do that and you’ll never have to worry about how your donated dollars are spent. But you can’t do it alone.

Speak with your local friends, family, co-workers and anyone else you hear talking about this issue and educate them on the best solution.

Joe Hannoush ran for Florida House of Representatives as a Libertarian in 2018.

Two years per term, plus term limits

we get too often are folks who are driven (and financed) by special interests, and who have little or no regard for the average citizen.

Short terms and term limits provide us, the folks who live here and have to pick up the tab, the best chance of not getting skinned. It looks like the incumbents are trying to sneak one through while we’re not paying attention. Nuts to them!

Dear Editor: I hope that people are paying attention to the May special election. The new questions that will be decided are important.

Extending to four-year terms because our neighbors do it that way? I don’t think that is much of an argument. What if we’re the only ones doing it right?

I love the idea of deciding who is and who is not representing my interests every two years. A rotten apple can do a lot of damage in four years, and the sooner they can be identified and removed, the better.

And should there be term limits? You bet there should.

The failure of having term limits is almost a guarantee of corruption. These jobs should be considered as public service positions for individuals who, by their superior intellect, integrity, and proven expertise deserve the public trust. What

Ormond Beach Police closed U.S. from Nova Road to Airport Road on Wednesday, Feb. 27, as officers investigated a bomb scare. Damon Lance Gause Jr., 47, was arrested after officers found three homemade explosive devices in his truck, according to a press release.

A police officer first spotted his truck parked in a vacant lot at 890 N. U.S. 1 around 3:58 p.m.

OBPD Capt. Chris Roos said that the officer saw a suspicious object in the truck. The officer checked the area for the truck’s occupant, but found no one and decided to wait until the person returned.

When the occupant, who was later identified as Gause, returned to the truck, the officer conducted an investigative stop.

A K-9 indicated the truck was positive for narcotics, and during a search, police found one homemade explosive device on the front seat, and two others in the tool box. Gause told police he had been walking the vacant property because he was thinking of buying it.

Volusia County Sheriff’s Deputies and the VCSO Bomb Disposal Team, as well as other OBPD officers, responded to the scene.

Gause was charged with three felony counts of possession of a homemade explosive device and one count of carrying a concealed weapon by a convicted felon.

Ormond Beach police are searching for two women who are suspected to have stolen over $16,000 in Apple products from Walmart on Saturday, Feb. 23.

The two women, described as “heavyset black females,” entered the store on West Granada Boulevard at 4:16 a.m., selected a shopping cart and went to the home goods section to pick up a plastic tote, according to the police report. Then, they went to the electronic department where one of them pried open a case and removed 10 iPhones. The phones were placed inside the plastic tote.

The women then left the area, but returned later. The other woman pried open another case and removed 14 Apple Watches and 15 iPads. All the items were, again, placed inside the plastic tote before the women left the store and drove off in a white vehicle. The total value of all stolen merchandise is $16,876 before taxes, the report states.

The Ormond Beach Police Department asks that those with any information regarding this incident contact the Department through VCSP Central Dispatch at 248-1777. Those wishing to remain anonymous can call Crimestoppers at 277-TIPS.

IN MEMORY OF A

LOVED ONE

Welcome New Ormond Beach Chamber of Commerce Members

From 1996 to 1999, Fries starred as a wrestler at FPC under the tough but encouraging direction of Coach Steve DeAugustino.

After winning second place at the state competition his first two years, he earned two back-toback state championships to close out his junior and senior years.

Fries went back to school at Daytona State College and earned his Bachelor of Arts in Exceptional Student Education in 2016.

When he started teaching special education at Seabreeze, he didn’t think he would be coaching at all.

When Seabreeze Principal Rawlings asked him to be the girls flag football head coach, Fries said he was a nervous.

“I had never coached girls before, never was the head coach of anything before and never really coached flag football,” he said.

“But it really turned out to be one of my favorite things to do.”

His relationships with the JV and varsity teams at Seabreeze are simple. During practice, laughs are thrown into the mix, but when game time comes, it’s all business.

“I’ll yell; I’ll scream; I’ll push them,” Fries said. “If they make a mistake, I let them know it was a mistake. But they understand I’m doing it out of love.”

In his classroom, a handwritten note on an index card is pinned up on his bulletin board. It reads “Thanks for the tough love” and is complete with a drawing of a flexing emoji arm muscle and a heart.

Fries’ star quarterback, Bailey McQuarrie, who wrote the note, stuns him with her talent, even being only a sophomore.

“I’ve loved having him as a coach for two years,” McQuarrie said. “He’s been one of the

WELCOME FEBRUARY NEW MEMBERS

US4K/Urban Surf 4 Kids Mrs. V’s Hawaiian Ice Ghyabi Consulting & Management Magic Overhead Door Co., Inc. Wine Not?

best coaches I’ve had since he’s really tough on us. He doesn’t let anything just slide. He gets on us about everything, which makes our playing a lot better.”

The team’s flag football game on Tuesday, March 20, was cancelled due to impending inclement weather, but while Fries sat in his classroom before the school day was over, he said he bet at least two of his players — McQuarrie and Grace Remey — would be out on the field, practicing for themselves during seventh period.

Remey postponed graduation to play another year of flag football with the Sandcrabs.

Sure enough, the pair and sophomore Kara Haas were spotted on the field throwing a football around until the thunder rang too loud and pushed them inside.

“He makes it fun, but we’re still learning everything that we need to learn,” McQuarrie said about practices. “And then at game time, there’s no laughing on the sidelines or anything. We’re serious.”

Fries said the Varsity Sandcrabs have set high standards this year, scoring 73 points total for the two regular season games so far, while also keeping the opposing teams from scoring any points.

“I love coaching girls,” he said.

“They learn so quick. They push themselves so hard. They kind of adapt to my personality and want to go out there and succeed in everything that we do.”

Last season, the Sandcrabs ended 8-2. While Fries is optimistic about this season, he’s keeping his girls level-headed — with their game faces at the ready.

“I’ll yell; I’ll scream; I’ll push them. If they make a mistake, I let them know it was a mistake.

But they understand I’m doing it out of love.”

Grace Lucille Lippert

MICHAEL FRIES, Seabreeze girls flag football head coach

April 15, 1932 March 13, 2018

Grace Lucille (Winge) Lippert died on March 13, 2018 at St. Alexius Medical Center in Bismarck, North Dakota surrounded by her loving family. Grace was born on April 15, 1932 atTrinity Hospital in Minot, North Dakota, the fourth child of Albert Nicolai and Mabel Caroline (Gregerson) Winge. She grew up on the farm that was homesteaded by her father in 1913 in Van Hook, North Dakota where she did her fair share of chores in the barn with her father and chores in the house with her mother. She attended Van Hook Public School and graduated in 1950. During the winter months she was transported to school by horse and sleigh with her father at the reins, keeping her feet warm with bricks taken from the cookstove.

She enjoyed Glee Club during her school years. After graduating from high school she entered the school of nursing at Trinity Hospital in Minot. She worked for a short period of time in the hospital in Rugby, North Dakota. In the fall of 1951 she entered Minot State Teachers College, now known as Minot State University, where she studied to become an elementary school teacher. On July 29, 1953 she graduated with her standard diploma in elementary education.

1953 was a very significant year for the entire Winge family as their farm was taken by right of eminent domain to accommodate Lake Sakakawea, the lake that would be formed by the building of the Garrison Dam on the Missouri River. The family moved to a farm in Litchville, North Dakota where Grace taught 3rd and 4th grade in the Litchville Public School for two years, 1953 - 1954 and 1954 - 1955. After two years in Litchville she accepted an offer to teach 3rd grade at Washington School in Fargo, North Dakota which involved a significant pay increase, from $2,500 per year in Litchville to $4,300 per year in Fargo. She taught in Fargo for three school years, 1955-1956, 1956-1957 and 1957-1958.

During her years in Fargo she shared an apartment with her younger brother Royce who was studying at North Dakota State University, watching out for him as a big sister often would. She enjoyed her time teaching, guiding children and developing their minds. She also enjoyed the colleagues with whom she worked. While in Fargo she experienced more life changing events. Her mother died very suddenly of a massive cerebral hemorrhage on July 18, 1956. Grace also met the man who would become her husband, Wilbur Eugene Lippert. He was a student at North Dakota Agricultural College, now North Dakota State University. He graduated in 1957, they got engaged and he accepted a job offer in Chicago, Illinois. Grace, always being the cautious one, suggested he try the job for a year before they got married. Grace continued to teach in Fargo and Wilbur began his career in Chicago. On a very hot June 28, 1958 Grace and Wilbur were married at First Lutheran Church in Litchville, ND.

Wilbur and Grace honeymooned in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada before establishing their home in Elmhurst, Illinois where Grace taught reading to students in elementary schools in Lombard, Illinois during the 1958-1959 school year.

She then switched careers, becoming a mother to Muriel Jean on February 10, 1960 and Nancy Ann on July 31, 1962. She loved being a mother and was a very loving and devoted mother, always cheering on her girls.The Lippert family became lifelong fans of Roberto’s Pizza in Elmhurst, Illinois as a result of Grace’s work as a cashier at Roberto’s from 1963 - 1967.

Proudly Welcomes

Grace returned to her first love, medicine, and began a 30-year career when she started working as an aide in the surgery department at Elmhurst Memorial Hospital in Elmhurst, Illinois in 1967. In 1970 she completed classes and passed her national certification exam to be a Certified Surgical Technologist. As she studied, her children also learned many medical terms. In 1990, she completed certification in Sterile Processing and helped set up the new Sterile Processing unit at the hospital. She moved to the Endoscopy Unit in 1992 from which she retired in 1997 completing 30 years of service.

As the years went on she welcomed 5 grandchildren with great joy and spent much time with them after retirement. Whether visiting Emma and Eric in North Dakota or Lauren, Alex and Maureen in Florida or them visiting she and Grandpa in Elmhurst, every moment spent with them was a treasure to her. She was delighted to become a great grandmother on May 8, 2017.

In the late 1990s they were able to purchase a second home in Palm Coast, Florida and have enjoyed spending time there in the winter, being close to Nancy and her family and making new friends. Grace frequently checked on her neighbors at Kings Colony, whether she was in Florida or back in Elmhurst. They considered her a blessing.

AT A CROSSROADS 3:31 p.m. — Intersection of North Tymber Creek and Pineland Trail Grand theft: Police arrested two men who sold about 2,500 pounds of railroad tracks to a Bunnell metal scrap yard. The men received a total of $60 for the tracks, and came back for more when police confronted them. The men were in the process of loading five more tracks into their truck.

The police became aware of the matter when they received an anonymous tip that two men were stealing railroad tracks in Broadway Avenue. An officer spotted the men walking from a large pile of railroad tracks on the side of Tymber Creek Road, in an area with a “No Trespassing” sign.

When police arrived, the men had loaded 51 feet and 6 inches of track onto their truck.

One of the men told police that he had come to the location before and encountered a railroad worker who told him he could cut pieces of tracks, police report.

The railroad company said this was false. The man told officers that he wanted the metal to build a playhouse for his child and had never scrapped tracks. The second man later told police his scrapping buddy was friends with the owner of the Bunnell metal scrap yard.

The second man said they used the money for narcotics and cigarettes. Both men were taken to jail.

Roger Orrell: Seabreeze football champ, 1968 Olympian RAY BOONE

Roger Orrell died Feb. 24.

SPORTS EDITOR

Roger Ellis Orrell, a former star athlete at Seabreeze High School, died on Sunday, Feb. 24, at the age of 76. The funeral service was held on March 2, at Holly Hill Church of Christ.

Orrell was born on Dec. 6, 1942, in Louisville, Kentucky. After living in California, he moved to Florida in 1959.

He tried to enroll at Seabreeze for his sophomore year, but the administration told him that he was supposed to enroll at rival Mainland High School. As he made his way out of the school’s main office, he was stopped by Sandcrabs football coach Fred Hogan.

Hogan took one look at Orrell and made a decision.

“My uncle was a big man,” said Lytha Murton, one of Orrell’s nieces. “[Hogan] said to him, ‘Son, turn around. You’re staying with us.’”

Orrell helped Seabreeze’s football team win a state championship in 1960.

He also started throwing discus and shot put as an upperclassmen. But instead of throwing a 12-pound shot like most high school shot putters, he started throwing a 16-pounder to train for a possible run at the Olympics.

After graduating from Seabreeze in 1961, Orrell, who stood at 6-foot-4 and was nearly 300 pounds, attended Abilene

Christian College, in Texas, where he continued to play football and throw discus and shot put.

Orrell eventually achieved his dream, gaining a spot on 1968 Olympic team but was unable to participate due to a broken finger he sustained two weeks before the event.

He will also be remembered as a Daytona Beach life guard.

Orrell served in the reserves and in active military from 1967-1973.

He is survived by his son, Andy; and his grandchildren, Morgan and Tyson. He is also survived by his sisters, Donna Hankes and Peggy Hayes.

“He was such a humble man. He would never talk about himself.

But if you get people who were around him to talk, the stories are unbelievable,” Murton said. “And he loved his family and God more than life. His family brought pure joy to his life.”

LIONS HONOR SEABREEZE GOALIE The Ormond Beach Lions Club honored Seabreeze High School senior Cameron Bowling as its student-athlete of the month for February.

Bowling is the goalie and team captain on the SHS soccer. He was named First Team, All-Area in 2017 and Second Team All Area in 2018 by the Orlando Sentinel.

Aside from sports, he has a 4.47 GPA and ranks 10th in his senior class. He serves as the president of the Allied Health Academy and vice president of the National Honor Society.

HINSON KIDS GIVE TO PET SHELTERS Hinson Middle School students focused during the month of February on raising awareness and donations for two local pet shelters: The Halifax Humane Society and Sophie’s Circle.

Future Educators of America, the National Junior Honor Society and student government at Hinson joined forces to make this possible. Members worked non-stop to get the whole school involved with

competitions, and fundraisers on campus. Over $300 and 643 pounds of pet supplies were donated thanks to students, staff and families.

ROTARY DONATES TO PROVISION PACKS The Rotary Club of Downtown Ormond Beach raised $733 for Provision Packs, which provides food to over 200 local elementary school children so they’re able to have nutritious meals over the weekends and school holidays. The donation was made possible through the club’s distribution of holiday cards to area businesses encouraging patrons to donate.

Hinson robotics club cultivates STEM, team work and friendship JARLEENE ALMENAS NEWS EDITOR

The Hinson Middle School Technadoes have taken the area’s robotics tournaments by storm — with Legos.

The school’s 10-student robotics team has only been together for two years, but it made history last year at its school by making it into the First Lego League regional competition. This year was no exception: The Technadoes’ robot Crusher helped them rank high enough to compete in regionals again this February in Winter Haven, where the team won second place for mechanical design out of the 48 teams at the championship.

Hinson Middle School teacher and team coach David Prather said he was impressed with

the students’ dedication to the team. The Technadoes only officially meet once a week, but the students met almost every day in the weeks before a tournament since mid-September when the club took off. For this tournament, the students had to come up with a problem dealing with space and a Lego robot to solve it. The Technadoes’ Crusher robot was built to shoot out a net and capture stray cubesats.

“I was also extremely proud how they persevered,” he said. “ ... Some kids were programmers, some kids were project developers, some kids were robot builders, but all learned important core values of professionalism, communication and team work.”

Prather said robotics are only taught through STEM elec-

tive classes in the county, and teams competing in the tournament are after school clubs like the Technadoes that must raise funds or get private donations to sustain themselves. He said he is proud of the support the student’s parents provided to the club.

For student Jaron Weinand, being part of the Technadoes was one of the biggest learning experiences of the year. He worked on the programming portion of the robot, and said that the knowledge gained from robotics could one day help improve the world.

“I really like how much you learn,” Weinand said. “You could learn at your pace and your speed.”

Jack von Heim is one of the youngest members in the club.

He’s in sixth grade. Staying after school isn’t a big deal for him.

“Once you get like actually into robotics, it’s really fun and you kind of don’t want to leave,” von Heim said.

*Study conducted at the University of Northern Colorado, 2015, examined the effectiveness of the new features of primax by collecting and analyzing ongoing EEG data while subjects performed speech testing. For both primax features SpeechMaster and EchoShiled, the objective brain behavior measures revealed a significant reduction in listening effort when the feature was activated. Hearing instruments help many people hear better, but cannot solve every hearing problem.
