BRIEFS Police searching for man in Ormond Garage attack A woman was assaulted recently in the parking lot of the Ormond Garage, and the perpetrator has yet to be identified.

The victim was returning from the Grind Gastropub with her friends around 1:48 a.m. on Saturday, May 30, when she spotted a man she later described to police as short and white, leaning against her car, the incident report states. She asked him to move and the man then headbutted her before throwing her on the ground, mounting the victim and delivering blows to her face.

Restaurant owner Kevin Wakefield stated on Facebook that he is offering a $2,000 reward for information that will lead to the man’s arrest. He also said he will be “stepping up” late-night staff to patrol nearby parking lots, and said female patrons may ask for an escort to their vehicle.

CITY WATC H

Branding Ormond Beach’s downtown

Mayor Bill Partington was recently recognized with a 2020 Home Rule Hero award by the Florida league of Cities. This is the sixth year he’s been presented with the recognition.

The award is given to government officials who consistently helped give local perspectives on issues.

The four new banner designs planned for the CRA district.

New banners for city light poles are in the works, all with designs to brand the creation of four specific districts within the city’s community redevelopment area.

The districts are uptown, downtown, the bridge and beachside, city staff documents state. The uptown district will be the area from Orchard Street to U.S. 1. The downtown district will be from U.S. 1 to Beach Street.

The bridge district will be from Beach Street to John

Anderson Drive, and will include the four parks at each corner of the Granada bridge.

Finally, the beachside district spans from John Anderson Drive to the beach.

In January 2019, Ormond MainStreet utilized consulting services to develop a new branding strategy for the city, and the CRA master plan update was adopted by the commission in October 2019.

The current banners were installed in 2012 and need to be replaced, according to city

documents. The design for each district as recommended by the MainStreet Executive and Design Committees on May 11. Only Commissioner Troy Kent voiced a small issue with the banners, saying he believed the one for uptown was a bit busy. The item still gained unanimous support via approval of the consent agenda.

Installation of the banners could cost between $5,000$8,000 and will be funded using CRA funds.

“I can only express my deepest condolences to the Floyd family and say the city of Ormond Beach and the entirety of the Ormond Beach Police Department stand in solidarity with those who choose to peacefully protest.”

BILL PARTINGTON, Ormond Beach mayor

Now that the Cassen Park floating dock is completed, the City Commission unanimously approved at its June 9 meeting an ordinance on first reading regarding its usage.

The ordinance states that the boat dock is meant for use in day trips to the local amenities, and not for overnight or long-term stays. It also prohibits commercial vessels from using the dock.

Armed robbery suspect sought Ormond Beach Police are searching for a suspect in an armed robbery that occurred at Ormond Town Square Publix on June 9.

Police reported that the suspect, described as a “light-medium skinned black male” in a press release, asked to speak to a manager at the store that evening. When the manager arrived, the suspect displayed a firearm and demanded he be taken to the cash office. He stole an undisclosed amount of money. Call 676-3518 or 1-888-277-TIPS.

PEACEFUL AND POWERFUL

Protestors make their voices heard in Ormond Beach

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

About 25 people gathered at the Granada bridge in Ormond Beach on Wednesday, June 3, to protest against police brutality toward the African American community, joining hundreds of protests across the U.S. following the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

The group held up signs reading “Black Lives Matter,” “Stop killing us” and “Silence = Betrayal” as they chanted, “No justice, no peace,” a unifying phrase repeated during this protesting movement.

The protestors, joined by a handful of Ormond Beach Police officers, walked the Granada bridge with their signs on display.

For protest organizer Derek Schultz, it was important their protest be peaceful. As an African American man, he has experienced both oppression and racism, he said. As a father, he wants a better future for his children. It’s about unity, he said.

“Nothing more, nothing less,” Schultz said. “We have to understand that we can’t do nothing alone. That’s the problem. We’re separated and we need to come together.”

Ormond Beach Police Chief Jesse Godfrey, who was at the protest as well, said they reached out to Schultz on Facebook after they heard he was holding a protest.

Godfrey said they told Schultz they “had his back,” and that they were going to be present to protect the protestors, and keep an eye out for counter protestors.

Many of the passing cars honked their horns. Some motorists held their fists in the air as they drove by. Only a few cars slowed down to yell things like “misinformation,” and “Trump” at the protestors.

Godfrey, who has been in law enforcement for about 32 years, said the Floyd murder made him sick to his stomach. He repeated something he recently heard on the news: That people should be

focusing on what led up to the protests.

As a department, they have to continue to strive for transparency.

“We’ve been working on it, but we’ve got to do better,” Godfrey said. “We’ve got to do better on the law enforcement side. We’ve got to do better on the criminal justice side, because it’s not just the police. It’s the court system and the inequities that are being talked about. It needs to be looked at.”

When people say “all lives matter” in response to the Black Lives Matter movement, Schultz said it is nothing but a counter protest.

He hopes peaceful protests will give a different perspective to those that oppose them.

“When we say black lives matter, we’re not saying only black lives matter,” Schultz said. “We’re saying black lives matter, too. All lives can’t matter until you all stop killing us. I mean, it’s that simple.”

“We’ve been working on it, but we’ve got to do better.

We’ve got to do better on the law enforcement side.

We’ve got to do better on the criminal justice side, because it’s not just the police. It’s the court system and the inequities that are being talked about.

It needs to be looked at.”

OMAM reopens after COVID-19 closure with veteran art The ‘Veterans and Military Families Create’ exhibition will be on display through September.

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

WANT TO HEAD TO THE MUSEUM? OMAM reopened on June 8, but the following is in effect due to the coronavirus: n The museum will be open daily 12-4 p.m. n Only 10 visitors are allowed inside at a time. n Masks are required for all visitors and staff n Please practice social distancing while inside.

J. Walker Fischer stands by his photograph, “Lieutenants,” taken in 1971.

Flora. It’s her first exhibit. While not a veteran herself, the Ormond Beach resident is married to an Army veteran and also grew up in a military family. Like Fischer, she is also a photographer. She’s been taking photos for about four years and, up until the exhibit, had just used her talents to gift photos to her friends.

Lovelace-Flora has four photos on display, all nature and coastal in theme. These are the things that make her smile, she said, and therefore, the things she loves capturing.

“I love nature, and I love going down there and just watching the birds, the dolphins — whatever I see,” Lovelace-Flora said.

One of her works on display is “Beach Bliss in the Morning,” a photograph of two empty chairs near the beach at Cardinal Drive.

She happened to be walking by one day when she spotted the chairs. There was just something about the sun and the water that made her start taking photos.

“It was just all those ingredients that you can’t plan for, and I just looked out and went, ‘Wow,’” she said.

Some of the artwork on display is profound from a military and veteran perspective, LovelaceFlora added. Looking through all the artwork, she said she can tell that art is an outlet for so many involved in the military world.

“I saw a lot of creativity from all of the artists, and for some of them, some of the art tells some really good stories related to their experience as veterans or officers,” she said.

The exhibition will be on display through September.

Back in 1946, the Ormond Memorial Art Museum was founded with a donation of oil paintings by a World War I veteran. After over a two-month closure due to COVID-19, the museum will open its doors again on June 8, and in keeping with its roots, the exhibition on display pays tribute to veterans and their families.

The “Veterans and Military Families Create” exhibition features works from 26 artists in different mediums and subjects.

Each piece is accompanied by a story of someone’s connection to the military, whether it be the artist’s own story, or that of a family member.

J. Walker Fischer, an Army veteran who served in Vietnam, said he was thrilled that the museum got this idea for an exhibition.

Fischer’s history with the museum dates back decades. His parents were associated with OMAM back in the 1960s, and he is also a longtime museum member and has served on the board.

“I thought it was just a very good idea for them to allow us to exhibit,” he said.

Fischer, who lives in Ormond, has three photographs in the exhibit, and while he has a hard time choosing a favorite, for this exhibit he highlighted his photograph of Lt. Crawford and Lt. Durkin of the 53rd Signal Battalion. He took it in South Vietnam in 1971; Fischer was thee head of the photography unit.

“They were just happening to be coming along when I was taking some pictures, and I said, ‘Well, let me pose you and get a shot,’” Fischer recalled.

Fischer is still in contact with Crawford today, but he’s lost track of Durkin over the years.

What will be different when school resumes?

State teachers union recommends widespread testing ANA CEBALLOS NEWS SERVICE OF FLORIDA

Florida’s top teachers union on Tuesday, June 2, unveiled its proposal for reopening public-school campuses in the fall as districts wait for final direction from the state Department of Education.

After nearly three months of coronavirus-prompted school closures, the education of about 3 million Florida students has been upended, sparking concerns about growing achievement gaps and the types of safety measures that will be needed to keep students and staff members safe in the fall.

“We don’t want to go into a school year with question marks,” Florida Education Association President Fedrick Ingram said.

The union’s Statewide Committee to Safely Reopen Public Schools recommends: n widespread testing of students, staff and visitors n adjustments to class sizes and student transportation n changes to school calendar n promoting hybrid instruction n pushing to hire more school counselors and psychologists to help students’ social and emotional well-being.

Ingram also said the organization is recommending changes to school lunch plans, which could mean bringing food to classrooms to reduce foot traffic in schools. He said it might also be a

VOLUSIA’S APPROACH How is summer work impacted by the coronavirus? How will teachers be impacted when the 2020-2021 school year beings? The following is adapted from a May 29 letter posted to Facebook by the Volusia United Educators, after meeting with Volusia County Schools leadership.

Summer hours for office specialists (four days per week, 10 hours per day) began June 1, with personal protective equipment provided by the district. Office specialists were to receive additional compensation for reporting to work during the school closure period.

Instructional personnel will work remotely through June 15. When you return, the following expectations will be in place: n Temperature check is mandatory; n Face coverings or the use of a mask is encouraged; n All CDC guidelines will be followed; n If you are sick, you should stay home.

good idea to have teachers — and not kids — change classrooms between class periods.

‘ACADEMIC SLIDE’

Superintendents, the union and state education officials also have expressed concerns about growing achievement gaps among students. Such gaps have historically affected many minority and lowincome students. Ingram said the FEA is calling to “suspend current accountability systems” including standardized tests and school grades.

SHELL FIND IN ORMOND-BY-THE-SEA A reader recently shared a photo of one her beach finds with the Ormond Beach Observer: an argonaut nautilus shell.

Danielle Robinson found the shell near San Jose Drive in Ormond-by-Sea on Sunday, June 7. According to an article by National Geographic, the argonaut octopus, also known as paper nautiluses, females use the shells to lay their eggs, as the species spend their lives drifting in the water rather than the ocean floor.

The article also states the shell acts as a “ballast tank,” allowing it to bob in the water without using energy. The females measure over 15 inches long and males are less than an inch long.

LETT ERS

Dear Editor: There has been a lot of rhetoric concerning the proposed Avalon Park Daytona debacle in conjunction with the Hand Avenue Extension — the latter a violation of the wetlands and the sanity of Ormond Beach residents. But, there are some missing links in the mix of all that discussion. Let’s look at the problems (some existing, some futuristic), and possible solutions, to this potential destructive force trying to upend East Central Volusia.

ISSUES:

1. Construction of 10,000 homes plus commercial on 2,600 acres; an overload of population and vehicles; the homes not of the same quality as neighboring Margaritaville, Mosaic, Breakaway Trails and Hunter’s Ridge.

2. The $75 million bond to help the Avalon developer construct a road from Tymber Creek Road to Hand Avenue at Williamson Boulevard.

3. Tomoka River (LPGA) Bridge.

4. Traffic flow on LPGA Boulevard from I-95 to International Speedway Boulevard.

5. Preservation of the wetlands.

Avalon is to be constructed within the city limits of Daytona Beach. The leaders there

have got to envision the impact that this mega mess will bring to an already burgeoning area.

There are other alternatives to resolve the existing traffic problem and then, perhaps, look at sensible possibilities for that 2,600 acres. Developers should not dictate what should be built where — no matter how many enticing carrots they dangle out there. And county and city leaders should — no, must — listen to the residents. Why? Because there is a sense of mistrust already.

Do not forget, this is supposed to be a government of the people, by the people and for the people. So, let’s examine some possible solutions.

SOLUTIONS:

1. Put the development of the 2,600 Avalon project on hold.

2. Void the request for a $75 million bond; positive by-products of this are the protection of the wetlands and no unnecessary Hand Avenue Extension.

3. The state, Volusia County and the city of Daytona Beach must immediately begin preparation for construction of a four-lane bridge over the Tomoka River and the widening of LPGA Boulevard from I-95 to International Speedway Boulevard.

4. If funds are needed for the aforementioned projects, hit up on the deadbeats that did not pay their property taxes

(this lengthy list appeared in another newspaper).

5. If this Avalon/Hand Avenue Extension situation persists, it must be subject to public vote.

Simply put, it’s about priorities. Growth does not pay for itself.

ED KOLASKA Ormond Beach

On Ormond’s new banners Dear Editor: What should have been an interesting group participation for banner design in Ormond Beach was, as always, done by MainStreet hiring a consultant to develop a totally meaningless whimsical product at the direction of the city manager, to be signed off by the City Commission without so much as a fare-thee-well. Peer review, residents get a view or choice — not here with all the reaching out, open government and citizens’ input.

Unfortunate the new banners could not be published for citizen review prior to approval by the commission.

Maybe put some banners on the floating dock?

Trespassing. An Ormond Beach woman was wearing headphones as she worked on a remodeling project in her home’s bathroom, and when she looked up, she saw a man standing in the doorway.

The woman told police that the man told her he could help with her house and lawn, according to the police report, and the woman told him to leave multiple times. She said he stood there and said nothing. Eventually, he left and went to her neighbor’s house. The man then left on a bicycle.

Police spoke to the neighbor, who said the man asked if they needed any work to be done around the house. He gave the man money instead. Police eventually found the man, who said that he had entered the woman’s home because he thought it was under construction and he was looking for work.

The woman told police she wished to press charges.

A

t 64 years old, Ormond Beach resident Beth King took a leap of faith and crossed off an item on her bucket list: She learned to ballroom dance.

King, a divorce lawyer, had never watched an episode of “Dancing with the Stars” or ever really danced much at all. She didn’t know the difference between a cha-cha or a rumba, and never envisioned herself gliding across the dance floor performing a tango.

“It was just something that was in the back of my mind, and I really didn’t know a lot about it, to be honest,” King said. “I just thought, ‘Well, it’ll be something for me to try.’”

Now, two years later, ballroom dancing has become a passion for King. So much so, that she trains with her dance instructor Artur Kozun for four hours a week at Oceans Dance Studio in Daytona Beach.

Ormond Beach resident placed third in New York ballroom dance competition

King has also discovered she loves competing.

Just before the coronavirus triggered safer-at-home orders across the country, King and Kozun were able to compete in the New York Dance Festival in New York City in late February, where they placed third in the SR International Ballroom Bronze Scholarship competition and fourth in the SR International Ballroom Bronze Championship.

It was during that competition that King experienced one of her biggest thrills, she said. It was the moment she found out she was headed to the quarter finals.

‘IT FEEDS THE SOUL’

King’s enthusiasm for competing developed shortly after she started taking lessons. In the beginning, the lessons were more social in nature.

She was learning the basics.

And then she discovered the quickstep while watching videos of ballroom champi-

onships. King decided she wanted to learn how to perform that dance.

That’s how she ended up meeting Kozun, a Polish native who has been dancing since he was 7 years old. Together, they have competed in four competitions so far, including ones in Orlando, St. Augustine and Miami. Kozun said he likes working with Beth because she’s fast learner. She also asks a lot of questions.

“She’s a very curious person, and I like it because sometimes it creates new knowledge,” he said.

While ballroom dancing can be physically demanding at times, King said it makes her incredibly happy. She called dancing an “anti-aging” method, as it helps keep both her body and mind healthy, she said.

Oceans Dance Studio was closed for two months due to COVID-19, and King missed it. Recently, the studio has reopened, and both students and teachers wear masks during their lessons.

Kozun loves seeing King succeed, and it’s a testament that anyone can start dancing at any age, he said. Kozun loves to see how dance can transform a person’s life. Beyond feeding the mind and body, dance feeds the soul, he said.

“I think it’s like a chameleon,” Kozun said. “It can give you whatever you need.”

GOAL-SETTER

As a lawyer, King is not only a little competitive, but she’s goal oriented. She loves having something to work toward. Competitions give her that. She’s also met a lot of new friends.

But taking that first lesson took courage. In the beginning, King said it was very humbling having to learn a new skill from the very beginning. Along the way, she was

“There’s just a lot more to it than meets the eye,” King said.

Now that she’s competed in the New York Dance Festival, King has her eyes on her next big goal: performing in the Blackpool Dance Festival, the most wellknown ballroom dance competition in the world.

Safe summer fun at South Ormond Neighborhood Center What summer camp looks like in Ormond Beach as COVID-19 stretches into June.

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

This year’s Summer Connections Camp might have been modified due to COVID-19, but the counselors’ mission hasn’t changed: They still wanted the campers to have fun.

The first day of camp saw 29 children enrolled, though up to 45 are able to take part. According to a press release by the city, the summer camp is being offered to help parents with critical childcare needs this summer. Participation is open to children 6-12 years old.

Campers were split into small groups at the South Ormond Neighborhood Center and the Nova Community Center. Temperatures will be checked each morning, and staff members are required to wear face masks indoors.

Many of these kids have been cooped up at home for months, and finally have a chance to play with other children their age, said Liviston Edwards, recreation leader at the South Ormond Neighborhood Center. Though there will be no fields trips this year, the counselors are keeping the kids busy with games and activities.

Surfaces are cleaned often,

which Liviston said is one of the most important things they as counselors can do. When it’s all said and done, parents need to know their kids will be safe.

“You can’t always fix the world, but you can do what you can do,” Edwards said.

Registration is still open. Call 676-3250 or visit the Leisure Services office at 399 N. U.S. 1.

E-EPIDEMIC: VAPING AND YOUTH Photo by Jarleene Almenas

What You Need to Know

Willie Perry has owned his tattoo parlor since the ’90s.

Youth vaping has skyrocketed. In 2018, 1 in 4 Florida high school students reported current use of electronic vaping—a 58% increase compared to 2017.

you didn’t know what was going on,” he said. “You didn’t know when we would be able to come back to work. Everybody was kind of up in the air about everything.”

Since reopening, Perry applied for the county’s $3,000 relief grant for small businesses. The parlor has reopened with a focus on appointments to help with social distancing, and business has been fairly steady, Perry said.

One thing he’s learned from the situation is to be more conservative in regard to saving money. As Floridians, we’re used to hurricanes closing down businesses, he said — but those closures have only ever lasted three to four days maximum. Since he opened Tropical Tattoos in the 1990s, Perry had never experienced a closure lasting this long.

“It was very devastating that we were shut down for so long and not knowing what was going on and stuff, but I look to the future, and I think we’re all going to be fine,” Perry said. “Everything is going to work out, if we make it through hurricane season.”

E-cigarettes typically contain nicotine, which is highly addictive and can affect brain development for youth and young adults by disrupting growth of brain circuits that control attention, learning and susceptibility to addiction.

The most popular e-cigarette brand among young people is JUUL, which comes in a variety of flavors and delivers high levels of nicotine. JUUL and similar devices are also easy to conceal; in fact, widespread use by students in schools has been reported.

The Bureau of Tobacco Free Florida is your trusted resource for accurate information on the youth vaping epidemic. You can help by educating yourself, dispelling myths among your friends and family, and talking to your kids about the serious concerns around vaping and nicotine addiction.

routine health questions before going under the needle. After an extended closure, it’s what owner Willie Perry and his other artists have to do to get back to work.

Tattoo parlors across the state were allowed to reopen on Friday, June 5, as part of the governor’s phase 2 of Florida’s plan to reopen.

For Perry, the decision took longer than expected. Considering tattoos are a personal service, he thought he would be allowed to reopen his parlor when hair salons and barbershops were given the OK to renew business on May 11.

The governor’s decision to group tattoo parlors with the reopening of bars disappointed him.

“It’s nothing like going to some of these bars where people are shoulder-to-shoulder and you can’t even get into the place without bumping into people,” Perry said.

At first, when it was looking like the closures would only last a couple of weeks, Perry said he was fine with it.

“Two weeks I could live with, but when it extended out, it was really getting to us,” Perry said.

Tropical Tattoo, located at 825 S. Yonge St., went from having seven full-time artists to four.

Perry said he understood the situation was unprecedented, but said he still wished there had been clear direction for businesses from the very beginning.
