The Ormond Beach City Commission will light the Christmas tree at the David Hood Plaza at City Hall on Tuesday, Dec. 1, a tradition that this year will be virtual, livestreamed on Facebook for all to watch.

The tree lighting is one of the holiday events in the city that has been modified due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Annual events like the Home for the Holidays parade, Christmas at the Casements, Breakfast with

Santa and the Gaslight Parade have all been canceled.

However, the city of Ormond Beach, the Home for the Holidays Parade Committee, Ormond MainStreet and the Ormond Beach Chamber of Commerce are all partnering to host a week-long drive-thru event in the downtown district.

The event, “Merry and Bright on Main Street,” will run Dec. 12-18. The city said in an email that it is a contest for businesses in the downtown Community Redevelopment

BRIEFS Volusia County Schools plans to offer Volusia Live for second semester

Karen Sutton and Bonnie Koleefer sign in families.

Turkey Day

Volusia County Schools is prepared to continue offering Volusia Live as a virtual learning option for families for the second semester, the district announced in a press release.

The announcement comes after Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran said at a Florida Board of Education meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 18, that a new emergency order allowing virtual learning to continue into the second semester is coming soon.

The second semester begins on Jan. 26, 2021.

Families will also have the option of attending classes at brick-and-mortar schools, as well as Volusia Online Learning.

The district states that 75% of its students are in traditional classrooms, while 15% are in Volusia Live and 10% have opted for Volusia Online.

Gov. Ron DeSantis and Corcoran have maintained that families need to have the option of choosing face-to-face instruction or distance learning for children, arguing that keeping students away from school can have damaging impacts on students’ physical safety, mental health and educational progress.

Jewish Federation distributes 300 turkeys for Thanksgiving

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

T

he Jerry Doliner Food Bank made sure that about 300 families will have a Thanksgiving this year.

Run by the Jewish Federation of Flagler and Volusia Counties, the food bank located at 470 Andalusia Ave. drew a line of people the morning of Tuesday, Nov. 24, to receive apples, sweet potatoes, pastries and, of course, a turkey.

The Jewish Federation distributes turkeys to those in need every year, and with the COVID-19 pandemic financially affecting local families, Executive Director Gloria Max said, the need is great.

“We’re seeing people that we never saw before, and it’s really hard,” Max said.

This year’s distribution, which

Gloria Max said her job has saved her life.

Max estimated cost around $12,000, was made possible thanks to about 75 volunteers and help from Samsula Elementary and the Temple Beth-El School.

This Halloween, the Temple Beth-El youth group went trickor-treating for hunger, and sorted the food out for the Jewish Federation. In addition, students Riana Prasar and Akhil Desai went around to local businesses, and put together baskets of food and gift cards for families in need.

Assisting in this year’s distribution was Volusia County Councilwoman Heather Post. She said in an email that volunteering in the community has always allowed her to talk to the “real change agents” and adequately assess the local needs.

“Helping citizens with basic needs is critical to the success of our county as a whole, and the Jewish Federation of VolusiaFlagler does an amazing job of filling essential gaps in services,” she said. “I am so grateful for all they do.”

Max makes sure that every one they help is truly in need. Because 100% of donations go toward this effort, she needs to be confident that the community’s dollars are well spent. The Jewish Federation keeps a database of all the families they help.

Steve Kurshner and Randy McDonald help hand out turkeys.

The nonprofit buys most of the food for the food bank, though they also receive some from the Second Harvest Food Bank. Max also makes sure to acknowledge every donation.

“We thank everybody that gives,” Max said. “I’m old school.”

From families affected by cancer to grandparents obtaining custody of their grandchildren after unforeseen circumstances, Max finds a way to help, even as she continues battling cancer herself. She’s undergoing aggressive chemotherapy, and is in a lot of pain, she said. Still, she gets up every day and heads to the food bank.

“This job has saved my life because if I stayed home, I’d be sedentary,” Max said. “I wouldn’t be moving, and I think I’ve got a purpose, and I think when you’ve got a purpose, it means a lot.”

“We’re seeing people that we never saw before, and it’s really hard.”

GLORIA MAX, Executive Director

Volusia County high schools get new AEDs for athletes Each of Volusia County’s 10 high schools recently received three new automated external defibrillators as part of an expanded program to keep student-athletes safe during practices and games, according to a press release.

This comes after a Seabreeze High School cheerleader suffered a cardiac episode in October.

The school’s resource officer, Iriabeth Lee, performed CPR until paramedics arrived.

The new AEDs were purchased with $46,000 of this year’s AdventHealth contribution to Volusia County Schools.

This is the third year of the fiveyear $2 million partnership.

“The AED is a lifesaver,”said Erik Nason of AdventHealth Sports Medicine, in the press release. “When someone goes down with a cardiac issue, it will analyze the heart. It will walk the individual through the steps of CPR and shock, as needed. So this is very important.”

All high schools already have at least one AED on campus, but the district stated that it is committed to increasing access to these devices.

Two of the new AEDs will be portable for use on the fields and the courts, and one will be mounted on the wall of each school’s gym. They will also be available to use for lessons.

In addition, the passage of the Zach Martin Act in July now requires coaches to have access to an AED at every athletic practice and game, and requires ongoing training, the press release states.

Local restaurants will face-off in ‘best bloody mary’ contest Hosted by Fugu Sushi, the event will benefit the Embrace Families charity.

NOV. 11

NOT YOUR HOUSE 6:20 a.m. — 100 block of Banyan Drive Disturbance. While out by his pool patio, an Ormond Beach resident heard someone open the fence door. A woman approached, and she appeared to be upset about him being home.

According to a police report, the woman, who was wearing pajamas, told the man the home didn’t belong to him and his wife, even though the couple has lived there for a decade.

The man determined this woman was either under the influence of some narcotic or confused about her surroundings due to a mental illness. He told her to leave, and she made an “advancing motion toward him,” causing him to be pushed backward in the pool, the police report states.

The woman later got in a vehicle and drove away. Police searched the area but were unable to find the woman.

What’s makes a good bloody mary?

For Fugu Sushi Bar Manager Corey Welter, the secret is in the mix. The popular Sunday hangover cure containing vodka and tomato juice can be customized in different ways, and on Sunday, Nov. 29, six local restaurants will compete to see which has the best bloody mary in town.

Fugu will be showcasing its wasabi bloody mary as a way to pay tribute to the restaurant’s Japanese fare. Aside from the mix — which can contain Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, celery and different herbs — Welter’s tip for a tasty bloody mary is to not skimp out on the quality of the vodka.

“You don’t want to give anybody a worse headache than what they started with, and then the garnish is very important,” Welter said. “That’s always the wow factor in bloody marys.”

Fugu will compete against Lulu’s Oceanside Grill, Riptides Raw Bar and Grill, the Wave Sports Bar and Grill, Rose Villa, and The Grind Gastropub. All six restaurants will set up tables on Fugu’s front patio, where there will also be live entertainment.

A panel of judges will taste each bloody mary entry and decide on a winner, who will take home a trophy. Welter said they’re hoping the event is held annually, with the trophy traveling from each winning restaurant to the next.

Members of the community can also chose their favorite bloody mary with a $5 ticket that will allow them to taste each entry.

The ticket also includes two raffle tickets. The proceeds from the event will benefit Embrace Families, a nonprofit that boosts child welfare services through foster care, adoption and mentoring.

Fugu Sushi Bar Manager Corey Welter said their wasabi bloody mary pays tribute to the restaurant’s Japanese fare.

It’s a cause that Fugu General Manager Rosemary Neary said resonated with her. Embrace Families also recently launched a Holiday Rescue 2020 campaign that aims to provide over 2,500 gifts for families impacted by COVID-19 this Christmas, as well as 1,000 meals.

Neary added that she thought the community needed to come together after a difficult year.

ODDBALL 4:37 p.m. — 100 block of Deer Lake Circle DUI. A 23-year-old drunk man yelled “peanut butter sixhundred” while trying to open his phone, before belching and making a “fart” noise, according to a police report. Police had just woken him up after finding him asleep at the wheel of his running vehicle.

The man uttered odd remarks when police asked him questions and that, coupled with his inability to stand without swaying and an “overwhelming scent of consumed alcohol,” resulted in the man being placed under arrest and transported to the hospital.

Afterward, he was transported to the police station for processing, where he failed several field sobriety exercises. He answered some questions but later “pleaded the fifth.” He was taken to jail.

Supporting past, future efforts to ‘Save the Loop’

Observer

Volusia County should take lead on preserving the Loop.

“If we are to build a better world, we must remember that the guiding principle is this — a policy of freedom for the individual is the only truly progressive policy.”

Friedrich Hayek “Road to Serfdom,” 1944

BILL PARTINGTON MAYOR OF ORMOND BEACH

“Save Ferris” is the mantra that shows up everywhere in the movie “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off.” You see it displayed on the scoreboard at the ball field, sprawled across the town’s water tower, and written on a student’s notebook at the end of the movie. It’s a tilted nod to just how much Ferris means to the fictional town of Shermer.

I see the same ideals showcased in the “Save the Loop” mantra that has been seen online again recently. It was included in a misleading post that suggests somehow the Loop is set to be bulldozed but the heart behind it is the same feeling that the town of Shermer shows for Ferris.

They innocently want to “Save Ferris,” who as moviegoers, we all know is in no real danger or in need of saving, just because they are good people with good hearts from a small town who want to support a good thing. Similarly,

Ormond Beach wants to “Save the Loop” because of course we want to protect our Loop, but just like in the movie the intent is wonderful but, like Ferris, it’s not really in danger.

The Loop has a power and charm all its own, and it certainly has a control over all of us who love our natural environment, but the truth is, the Loop has already been saved thanks to some really good people who have cared for and worked for the local environment for a long time. Let me commend the amazing work of the Ormond Scenic Loop and Trail and urge anyone interested in working to promote and protect the Loop to donate their money and time to this great group of people who have been working for years to create the Loop as it is and largely will be for all of us to enjoy in the future.

We owe these volunteers a debt of gratitude. It is unfortunate for anyone to denigrate the incredible hard work of these tireless volunteers such as Rita and Marty Press and Joe Jaynes and others by even suggesting that the Loop needs saving. Our Loop is beautiful and well saved within the guidelines of what has been allowed by law and property rights.

With that said, there are things that can be done to preserve and continue to protect the Loop area. These things will not be inexpensive but it

Sarah Beliza Tucker’s book series is available at Barnes and Noble and Amazon.

FIFTH BOOK FOR CHILDREN’S SERIES An Ormond-by-the-Sea author has launched her fifth book.

Now available at Barnes and Nobel and Amazon, Sarah Beliza Tucker’s new book is titled, “I’m Not Afraid,” part of her fully-illustrated book series for children ages 4-8, “The Adventure of Harry and Friends.” It’s about helping children recognize and overcome irrational fear.

Her series aims to teach important life lessons in an entertaining fashion, according to an email. Interested parents can join their fan club and receive a free gift at AdventuresofHarryandFriends.com

Ocean Art Gallery’s featured artist for December is Cherree Mallette, whose art medium is dry brush monochromatic surrealism.

Her work is two-dimensional on acid-free paper, using her digital photography skills as a reference, according to a press release. She’s been painting for over 30 years and has received numerous awards with written recognitions. This has led to gallery and museum showings in Florida and New York.

“The intensity and creativity of Mallette’s talent is so powerful I knew I had to dedicate an entire wall of our gallery to introduce it to our clients and guests,” said Frank Gromling, Ocean Art Gallery owner and director, in a press release.

Mallette is also a musician and songwriter, and will entertain guests during an opening reception, to be held 5-8 p.m. on Saturday, Dec. 5, during the city’s Art Walk. She will also be available to discuss her art.

Refreshments will be available. CDC guidelines will be in place. Her art will be on display through Dec. 31 at Ocean Art Gallery, located at 197 E. Granada Blvd. The gallery is

doesn’t mean they aren’t worth doing. Volusia County should take a big lead on these “heavy lift” Loop issues as they have the most property surrounding this natural area and have always been the controlling jurisdiction. Volusia County roads are what make up the Loop. Ormond Beach has only recently had any property on the Loop, and that is a result of a very recent annexation.

The county also has direct access to the funding required to make this work. Conservative estimates of the cost to purchase 76 lots of Plantation Oaks property are in the millions of dollars and should be paid for by Volusia County. The funding of any purchase of Plantation Oaks lots would best be provided by the recently voter-renewed Volusia Forever program. The good news is this program has made land purchases in the past for large dollar amounts, i.e. the Deepcreek-Leffler property in 2010 for $24 million and the Lunsford property in 2005 for approximately $12 million. Most surely the Loop property is as valuable and important environmentally as these two parcels were.

Even more importantly, it is time for North Volusia to enjoy the benefits and promise of the Volusia Forever program with an investment in our area. It is our tax dollars, after all, and Ormond Beach residents pay their portion of county taxes open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

Monday through Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. on Sundays.

for sure.

Although we would have to discuss specific details in an open meeting, I believe the Ormond Beach City Commission would happily support Volusia County’s committing to this purchase using Volusia Forever funding and would also send a letter of support to the county and Volusia Forever committee. We, as Volusia County residents, voted to tax ourselves for exactly this type of project, so let’s take advantage of the ability to do it and use those funds.

Can we do more? It’s been suggested to me that we put together an Ormond Beach citizen committee to review and prioritize properties that are environmentally or recreationally significant for a potential bond referendum for purchase by the city. Some of these properties include areas in and around Central Park, beachfront property, low-lying areas in and around U.S. 1 between Nova Road and Wilmette and others. This is similar to the process New Smyrna Beach used to create a fund to make purchases of environmentally sensitive lands, i.e. its recent $1.2 million Turnbull Creek purchase.

Working together we can and will continue to further protect our beautiful natural environment both in Ormond Beach and beyond. As mayor, I committ to this.

‘Every nut and bolt’ JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

J

ohn Jensen has owned over 300 Chevrolet Chevelles in his lifetime.

Hardtops. Convertibles.

Gold. Silver. Red. Sitting in the driveway of his Ormond-by-the-Sea home is a 1970 Chevelle convertible. He bought it in 2006, and in March of this year, he completed a frameoff restoration of the vehicle. Jensen does all the work on his own, even the fresh coat of paint.

“I know every nut and bolt of a Chevelle,” Jensen said. “That’s what I did my whole life.”

His love of cars began when he was a kid. Jensen bought his first car — a Chevy Impala — at 14 years old. He couldn’t drive it, but he could fix it up and sell it. The second he owned was a Chevelle, and he’s been hooked ever since.

In 1982, he started his own business restoring cars. Jensen

sold it last year and is now retired, but his passion for classic cars is everlasting.

It’s one of the reasons he’s been attending the Daytona Turkey Run for over 20 years.

“I love that show,” Jensen said.

“I think it’s great. I get to talk to a lot of people from all over the country.”

OVER 6,000 CLASSIC CARS

The 47th-annual Daytona Turkey Run at the Daytona International Speedway, located at 1801 W. International Speedway Blvd., will begin at 8 a.m. on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, Nov. 26, and run through Nov. 29. One of the largest combined car show and swap meets in the U.S., this four-day show features over 6,000 vintage, classic and custom, muscle, race cars and trucks on display and for sale, according to a press release.

The event also features an Artisan Alley with fashion, art and food vendors. Last year, over 150,000 people were in attendance.

“We are thrilled to be able to produce the Daytona Turkey Run this year,” said Barbara Kelly, general manager of the Daytona Turkey Run, in the press release.

“We have received such a positive response from vendors, participants and spectators alike.”

The outdoor event will not be mandating masks due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, though the press release states they are “highly encouraged.”

There will be stationary hand sanitizing stations throughout the field.

For Lake Mary resident Doug Berrios, attending the Turkey Run each year is tradition. He’s been attending for nine years, and this year is no exception.

“I just love the atmosphere, and I like how this event is conducted outdoors,” Berrios said.

He said he loves seeing the classic cars, but part of the draw for him is the antiques he often can find for sale as well as the street food vendors. His Mustang isn’t ready to showcase yet, but he hopes one day it will be.

Local snowbirds have showcased cars at Daytona Turkey Run for over 20 years

A FAMILY TRADITION

Before wintering in Florida, Joan Jensen recalls that her husband would leave their Connecticut home immediately after Thanksgiving dinner to make it to the Turkey Run the next day.

“I’d be like, ‘Who leaves their house on Thanksgiving for a car show?’” Joan Jensen said.

When she came down to Florida to see it for herself, she understood, though she wondered if any of them also cooked a turkey dinner. The Jensens then started attending the Turkey Run together every year, and later bought their house in Ormond-by-theSea where they usually hold large Thanksgiving gatherings. This year, that won’t happen because of the pandemic.

Still, the Jensens will showcase their 1970 Chevelle at the speedway. It’s a model of car that holds a lot of memories for the couple, which have been married for 40 years. Joan Jensen used to sneak out of the house to go joyriding with John in his 1968 Chevelle when they were dating. That very same car is now owned by their son.

Restoring cars is in John Jensen’s blood.

“He can put a Chevelle together blindfolded from scratch,” Joan Jensen said.

Seabreeze football falls to Columbia, ending playoff run

S Photos by Michele Meyers

Seabreeze quarterback 12 Blake Boda making a run for it as 7 Adeon Farmer chases him down.

eabreeze lost to Columbia in Lake City, 28-14, in a Class 6A-Region 1 football playoff game on Nov. 20.

The Sandcrabs missed a touchdown at one point in the game after they were stopped by Columbia at the goal line.

But Seabreeze head coach Pat Brown prides his team on playing with heart and they did not disappoint. Quarterback Blake Boda and running back Amir Brown ran back-to-back plays, one succeeding in putting the Crabs on the board. Scoring seemed to energize Brown, and he followed it up with another touchdown, but Seabreeze was stopped, and the Tigers scored again bringing the final score to 28-14, a Columbia win.

Buccaneers’ late push keeps season alive Mainland offensive line.

A

slow start that nearly cost Mainland the season was salvaged after three touchdowns went unanswered by the Matanzas Pirates late in the third quarter and into the fourth Lucas Williamson, T.J. Lockley, James Randle and Greg Mango helped make big plays to keep the Buccaneers in the game and ultimately the team’s 2020 season alive.

The win on Nov. 20 means that Mainland will continue to the next round of the 2020 FHSAA playoffs, at Columbia High School, in Lake City, Nov. 27.
