New disinfectant in potable water Beginning Nov. 29, the city of Ormond Beach Utilities Division will temporarily use a new disinfectant for the city’s potable water system, according to a notice on the city’s website. The disinfection will be performed “with application of free chlorine (a stronger disinfectant) rather than chloramines (a longer-lasting disinfectant comprised of combined chlorineammonia),” the notice states. This will be done until Dec. 20. “During this period the water continues to be of the highest quality and totally safe to drink,” the notice reads. “Customers may experience a slight difference in the taste and odor of the water as a result of the alternate disinfectant used.” This temporary conversion is a common practice, according to the city, and s recommended by the Department of Environmental Protection. The city asks residents contact its Public Works Department with any questions at 676-3220.

Westward focus: OB Life looks at Avalon Park

Company closes on home sites

Avalon Park Daytona is coming, and the city of Ormond Beach wants to make sure citizens are kept up to date with the latest information available regarding the large-scale development. On Tuesday, Nov. 9, the city launched its new mini-series of OB Life, concentrated on development impacts on the west side of the city. The “Westward Focus” twopart civic engagement workshops is modeled after the 2018 initiative that helped the city in updating its strategic plan. The first OB Life workshop, attended in-person by about 50 people at Calvary Christian Church, was centered around transportation and economic impacts. “So you might be saying to yourself: Why are we talking about Avalon [Park] Daytona when it’s not in our city?” City Manager Joyce Shanahan said. “What we’re really here to do is find out what’s important to you so that we can listen to that feedback and provide it to the folks at Avalon Park.” Avalon Park developer Beat Kahli was at the meeting. So what do we know so far about the project? Originally planned to be a 10,000-home development with 1 million square feet of commercial retail by 2045, Avalon Park is focusing currently on constructing 3,250 homes and 200,000 square feet of commercial retail by 2030, to be split into two phases in the parcel of land south of State Road 40 that was formerly owned by Minto Communities. Volusia County has approved the methodology for a traffic study for the development, the next step in the process. “I’m hopeful that [Kahli] will work with us to make his project successful in Daytona Beach, understanding

Land Sea Homes Corp. recently announced that it closed on the final 43 available homesites at Bulow Creek Preserve at Halifax Plantation in Ormond Beach. According to a press release, this means Landsea Homes will be the last remaining homebuilder in the coastal community, located between the 16th hole at Halifax Plantaton’s golf course and the historic Bulow Creek State Park. The homes will range from 1,813 square feet to 2,607 square feet. To learn more, visit https://landseahomes. com/florida/bulow-creekpreserve/ Photo by Jarleene Almenas

the impact it’s going to have on the surrounding community,” Mayor Bill Partington said. “I think he wants to do that. I think the better we can learn about the project and express our concerns, the better we can help him do that.” City staff provided workshop participants — about 45% of whom lived west of I-95 — with information regarding the history of the Avalon Park land parcel, which annexed into the city of Daytona Beach in 2002. In 1999, Indigo Development Inc. (later known as Consolidated Tomoka Land Company, Inc.) asked to annex 2,890 acres into the city of Ormond Beach, but was denied due to density issues, as well as the developer’s request to use St. Johns River Water Management District wetland standards — which were less stringent than the city’s — and the continuation of agricultural uses.

The majority of the estimated 7,000 residents that live west of I-95 work outside of the area, impacting roadways, said Brian Rademacher, economic development director for the city. A poll conducted at the workshop showed that the meeting’s participants reported driving west of I-95 were spread evenly over three levels of frequency: 1) weekly, but less than once per day; 2) one to two times per day; and 3) three to six times per day. Rademacher reported the median household income of residents on the west side is over $85,000, and that the existing retail marketplace doesn’t support the current demand. Avalon Park could create more jobs, diversify the economy and offer services to those residents, lessening the amounts of trips east of I-95. The next OB Life meeting is scheduled for Dec. 2.

“From an economic development perspective, a lot of the focus can always be on the larger companies, the targeted industries, but we always have to recognize that the foundation of any community is its small and medium-sized businesses.”

The monoclonal antibody therapy treatment site at the Ormond Beach Senior Center, located at 351 Andrew St., is now closed.

Ormond Beach Historical Society unveils contents of Union Church time capsules

T

he Ormond Beach Union Church building might be gone, but the Ormond Beach Historical Society has made sure its history is never forgotten. On Thursday, Nov. 4, the Historical Society held an opening reception for the first Union Church exhibition at the Anderson-Price Memorial Building, where the contents of two time capsules saved from the church were unveiled. The city demolished the 1960 church in late July after the City Commission voted 3-2 in May to raze it and construct a temporary parking lot in its place. Community members and citizens scrambled to try and get the commission to reverse its decision to no avail. Prior to the demolition, the city did collect artifacts, including Bibles and scrapbooks, which it then donated along with the time capsules to the Historical Society for preservation. “I looked at all that and I thought, ‘I should do an exhibit about this.’ That’s where it started,” said Leslie Madigan, curator, and chair of the Historical Society’s exhibitions and collections committee. PRESERVING OUR CULTURAL HERITAGE

Madigan began her quest to learn more about the Ormond Beach Union Church, and through conversations with former members, newspaper articles and written church documents, she was able to compile a history of the church for the exhibit. At times, she said she grew a bit nervous because she was conscious of the fact that she was recording information that was personal to people’s memories and worship. But, she reminded herself she was doing the exhibit because the church’s history deserved to be remembered. “It’s emotional, and everybody I talked to was so emotional, and really sad,” Madigan said. “When that became overwhelming in the conversation, I tried to ask people about positive things that happened in their church when they went there. Did they marry there? Did their children go to Sunday school? And then that changed the whole direction again.” At the opening reception, she told the crowd of about 40 guests — including a handful of former church members — that the church’s story went beyond the building. It was about preserving the city’s cultural heritage, and one way to do that is through artifacts. “We think it preserves the truth of the history for generations to come,” she said. “That is what the Ormond Beach Historical Society’s mission is. This evidence talks about our past, provides information about

how people lived. I think it’s an emotional significance of our species as humans.” Some of the items unearthed from the time capsules included a 1959 church annual report, building plans for the sanctuary, cards containing the names and addresses of church members and several old photographs. Clad with gloves to handle them with care, Madigan and former church member Winston Churchill, of Ormond Beach, would hold up each artifact as it was pulled from one of the jars. The crowd oohed as Churchill revealed a Coast Gazette newspaper dated May 17, 1894. STORIES OF FORMER MEMBERS

Churchill and his wife, Merri, joined the Ormond Beach Union Church in 1997 after moving to the city from San Francisco. They were faithful members for over a decade, and Churchill said they were saddened to see the building demolished. But, they were grateful that the Historical Society has committed itself to providing a home for the church’s relics. He spoke aloud the names of fellow

former members whom he considered to be heroes, even though many in the crowd didn’t know them. “On this perhaps final occasion of concern with this old church, their names ought to be spoken,” he said. Former church member Claudia Malo also spoke at the reception. As a child, she used to attend Bible school at the Ormond Beach Union Church, and recalled her involvement in the church choir. Malo couldn’t carry a tune, though, and the choir director often instructed her to lip synch, she said with a laugh. As an adult, her husband served as a deacon in the church. Malo grew emotional as she shared her story, saying that the church used to be a beautiful building. “You just walked in and you just felt close to the people and God,” Malo said. LEAVING AN IMPRINT IN HISTORY

Youlia Bussinger, executive director of the Ormond Beach Historical Society, said they record history, not only through researching and documenting artifacts, but also by focus-

ing on stories and memories that portray the community at a given time period. The exhibit, supported by a grant from the Florida State Department Division of Arts and Culture, does just that. It’s history coming to life, Bussinger said. She urged the event’s attendees to write down messages for a new time capsule, to be opened in 25 years. “Each generation leaves imprints on history,” Bussinger said. “This evening, together, we’re going to leave our imprint on history.” Madigan said exhibits like this help the Historical Society envision what it will be like to finally open an Ormond Beach Museum of History at the MacDonald House, a plan

that has long been in the works for the Historical Society. Currently, the MacDonald House is undergoing exterior renovations. It is one of the oldest remaining structures in the city, dating back to 1903. “I have so much help around here,” Madigan said. “We have this great staff, so we’re setting things up archivally now so when we move into that museum it’ll be easier just to move everything over there.” The first Union Church exhibition at the Anderson-Price Memorial Building, located at 42 N. Beach St., is available to be viewed on Saturdays through Dec. 4, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Visit ormondhistory.org Email jarleene@ormondbeachobserver.com.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF ORMOND BEACH UNION CHURCH The church was organized in 1883 by retired minister Rev. Elisha Y. Pinkerton, and its first members used to meet in large homes and in a one-room schoolhouse on Lincoln Avenue It was the first house of worship in the city of Ormond Beach and the first to hold Easter services on the beach in 1923. The first church building was built and dedicated in the fall of 1884 In 1888, the new church bell rang for the first time In 1890, the church became affiliated with the State Congregational Association of Florida Early members traveled to the church by rowboat from the beachside, and in the winter, from the Ormond Hotel by a street car. John D. Rockefeller and his son David were members of the church. In 1950, when the city became known as Ormond Beach, the church became the Ormond Beach Union Church. In 1954, under the leadership of Theodore Rogers, the church’s attendance grew to merit a second Sunday morning service. By the church’s 75th anniversary, attendance had grown to 804. In 1959, plans were made to construct a new sanctuary to seat 500 people. The new church building officially opened in 1963. From 1979 to 2012, the church was served by several pastors and remained active in the community. In 2012, the church’s membership was between 80 and 100. The church’s 40th and last pastor, C.M. Carruthers, was hired in 2012. He sold the church building and land to the city in 2018. The church was demolished in July 2021. — Source: “The First,” written by Leslie Madigan

County seeks universal pet licensing program

NOV. 3

The proposed revision adds a section regarding decorum.

Cities were asked to support the program’s creation, in hopes of reducing the number of lost and sheltered pets in Volusia.

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

An ordinance proposing countywide licenses for pets will be brought to the Volusia County Council for review in December, and the county has asked elected officials to voice their support for the program, which aims to reduce the number of pets admitted into shelters. Volusia County Animal Services Director Adam Leath presented the proposal during the Round Table of Volusia County Elected Officials meeting on Monday, Nov. 8. Currently, all 16 cities — in addition to the county which services unincorporated areas — have their own licensing program, with costs for residents ranging from free to $10 for sterilized pets, and upwards of $25 for unsterilized pets. A pet license, which is a tag bought after a pet receives its rabies vaccination, in the city of Ormond Beach costs $5 for both sterilized and unsterilized pets. Without a centralized system, there is no comprehensive or universal way to track down pet owners if their pets become lost, an issue that results in too many pets entering shelters, an increased cost to cities and owners permanently losing their pets, said Leath. According to the county, 5,645 animals were sheltered in the 20182019 fiscal year. The county estimates sheltering pets in Volusia County costs $530,630. “It’s not just one of your cities,” Leath said. “It’s not just the unincorporated. It’s all of us, but unfortunately, it’s segmented and so it’s really challenging for us to address

this problem if we’re not trying to address it all at the same time and working collaboratively.” Out of the estimated pet population of 223,145 in Volusia, the county estimates only 2.51% are licensed. This isn’t the first time countywide pet licensing has been discussed. In 2005, according to the county’s proposal, the topic was brought before a public hearing and 82% of Volusia’s cities elected to participate; however, the ordinance failed because a 90% participation rate was needed to ensure enough revenue was generated to justify the consolidation, and the County Council voted it down. Under this new proposal, one-year license fees would range from $4 for a sterilized and microchipped pet to $16 for an unsterilized pet. The town of Ponce Inlet, as well as the cities of Holly Hill, DeLand, Edgewater, and Orange City are onboard with the program. “None of us have enough code enforcement and animal control to keep up with the growing population,” said Deltona Mayor Heidi Herzberg, chair of the Round Table. “... How are we going to handle that influx of people with their animals? You have to have some sort of system.”

Spurred on by segments of public participation that at times grew tumultuous during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Volusia County School Board is looking into updating its public participation policy by adding a section on decorum. At the School Board’s workshop on Tuesday, Nov. 9, Volusia County Schools attorney Kevin Pendley said that, in the last several months, there has been a rise in challenges pertaining to the public’s civility and decorum when speaking before the board. The proposed revision to Policy 801 is meant to clarify previously vague provisions so that the board chair and speakers know what is expected of them, explained Pendley. Under decorum, the first new addition to the policy states that “citizen’s remarks should be directed to the presiding officer or the board as a whole and not to individual board members. Speakers may not address board members by name, and personal attacks against individual board members, the board as a whole, the superintendent or district staff are prohibited.” In addition, if approved by the board, speakers would be prohibited from discussing pending court cases and filed claims or complaints against VCS or district personnel. Employees would also be barred from discussing disciplinary matters, unless it is included in the board meeting’s agenda. “That’s the problem here,” Pendley said. “Someone can come up and make an unfounded, completely spurious allegation against any one of you or any one in staff, or against any issue, and there’s no opportunity to clarify that on the record. That’s why that language is in there.”

The proposed policy also prohibits signage; the current policy only authorizes them if they are part of a speaker’s presentation. Another notable addition to the decorum section is a provision that gives the board chair permission to turn off the microphone or call a recess if a speaker is engaging in personal attack or addressing “irrelevant” topics. Not all School Board members were in favor of the revisions. School Board member Ruben Colon said he didn’t think there was an issue with the current policy and that the proposed changes were not needed. School Board member Jamie Haynes agreed. “I feel as if a person takes the time to come here ... and sit here for the time period that sometimes we make them sit — which is hours — to be able to have three minutes to speak to us, I feel like we need to hear what they have to say,” Haynes said. Haynes did take issue with the policy’s clause that allows disruptive speakers to be trespassed from the building, as she said she feels certain individuals have been “targeted” in the past. “I have watched some people sit in that audience, yell, make statements, be very rude or cross that line, and nothing happened to them, and then I’ve watched someone make one statement and immediately be trespassed,” Haynes said. “There’s no consistency with that, and that does bother me.” Colon also disagreed with the policy prohibiting citizens from speaking on complaints against the district. However, School Board Chair Linda Cuthbert said it has been an issue in the past. “There are things that we need to be able to control in order, not only to protect our ability to vote fairly for maybe a future decision, but also to protect the speaker so that speaker does not in vehemence of the discussion compromise his or her own litigation,” Cuthbert said.

LETTERS Focus on the facts Dear Editor: After 15 long years of waiting by the businesses and employees of the Airport Business Park and surrounding businesses, I hope that residents will be able to focus on facts regarding a runway extension at the Ormond Airport. From all of the discussions I have heard, it seems as though the main complaint expressed is from the flight school activities. Those planes will continue no matter what. The corporate jets are quieter, will take off further away from any residential area, and they don’t take off and land all throughout the day! In my opinion, this runway extension will not change anything except perhaps keep us moving forward in our economic progress. It will, however, help us to keep up with the times, and allow our local economy to prosper, and that is good for everyone. PEGGY FARMER Ormond Beach

This isn’t ‘progress’ Dear Editor: I agree with Norman Lane (letter to the editor published Nov. 2). I live just outside of the area which would be impacted (allegedly) by the runway extension; however, the only exercise I can get for my old, decrepit joints these days is in my pool, and I tend to spend a lot of time in there. Every time I am in my pool, I see (and hear!) small aircraft flying above and wonder if they see me doing my exercise. I’m just thankful my husband and I are far enough away we wouldn’t be severely impacted the way some

30+ neighborhoods would be if this extension craziness is allowed to go forth. The annihilation of the forest on State Road 40 was bad enough for me to deal with, along with properties all along Granada and Nova — I can hear cars, trucks and motorcycles now that I couldn’t when we moved in due to all the clear-cutting. Haven’t we had enough “progress”? As Mr. Lane stated, it’s just a hop, skip and a jump to Flagler — the “powers that be” are just trying to make the deep pockets happy in my personal opinion (and there are many others who agree)! Did Jeff Bezos move into Ormond or something and nobody told me? LORI BENNETT Ormond Beach

Advancement requires infrastructure Editor’s note: The following letter was addressed and sent to the Ormond Beach City Commissioners. It is republished here with permission. Dear Commissioners: This is written in support of the 600-foot westward extension of the runway at Ormond Beach Municipal Airport, and in particular to approve the necessary environmental study to advance the project. Our firm has chartered regularly out of the airport for many years; more importantly, we have observed firsthand through our visits to many general aviation facilities throughout the state how far behind we are here at home in comparison to the improvements and advancements taking place in other comparable Florida communities. Economic progress and advancement requires appropriate infrastructure, and an adequate runway is an essential element

VOTRAN HONORED AT 2021 FPTA AWARDS Volusia County’s public transit system received six statewide awards and three recognitions, following the recent Florida Public Transportation Association’s annual conference at the Ocean Center. Votran received the 2021 Bus Safety Excellence Gold Award, the Outstanding System of the Year award, and marketing awards for its safety and COVID-19 information campaigns. Also recognized were: John Foderaro, Florida Technician of the Year Patricia Speranza, Transit Hero of the Year Scott Groth, graduate of the Center for Urban Transportation/FDOTcertified Transit Technician program Tamika Whitaker, graduate of the FPTA Leadership Training program Steve Jack, Volunteer of the Year

undergirding development and introduction of an adequate general aviation facility to serve the community. I’ve lived in and been in business in Ormond Beach and Volusia County for 50 years. A characteristic of our area is the constant presence of a vocal reactionary element that loudly objects to any positive steps toward general improvements that develop and upgrade the community. These individuals characteristically reject any effort to engage in a reasonable process to address goals, objectives and alternatives to serve those interests. Civic unrest, protests and rhetorical excess always seem to replace rational discourse. I urge our City Commission to recognize the loud voices of a few loudly objecting to airport improvements as simply background noise that will fade once the issue is resolved. By far, the greater interest will be served by making a rational decision on the merits and resolutely discharging the duties of your office. Please support the environmental study and continue to move toward completion of the extension. JOHN UPCHURCH Ormond Beach

Vaccines play a role Dear Editor, Regarding the letter “Daily COVID cases have dropped,” the writer fails to recognize that back in July and August, during the peak of the delta variant (with Florida being the epicenter), the vaccination rate rose. And although there were not many mask mandates, people began wearing masks again. It’s true that COVID cases have dropped, but at 70,000-plus cases a day, they are still very high. Vaccinations and masks have

helped, and the science backs it up. JUDY RONCI Ormond Beach

Let’s do better for our veterans Dear Editor; As a city, we can do far better than celebrating Veterans Day with a drive-thru boxed lunch. I have lived in Ormond Beach for nearly 10 years and have come to appreciate the deep sense of patriotism in our community. I recall well-attended pre-COVID Memorial Day ceremonies at the Rockefeller Gardens that were both stirring and tear-jerking. This got me to thinking. Why don’t we have our own Veterans Day Parade next year? Let’s go big. Let’s get high school and other bands there, the old cars with tops down and veterans waving from the backseats. Banners, color guards, local veterans chapters and active National Guard, too, just for starters. Let’s choose a parade route where thousands of us can wave, cheer and show genuine appreciation for our treasured veterans. They don’t seek this recognition. They often take what they can get in appreciation of their service, from a simple thanks to someone in a line maybe buying their coffee for them if they are wearing a service cap. Let’s do better next year. Let’s name a grand marshal to get things started. Let’s get the necessary permits. About that parade route — maybe it’s one that starts on beachside, crosses the Granada Bridge and marches right through downtown so people can line both sides of the street and give our veterans the recognition they truly deserve.

The K-9s are recovering after

being shot on the job in September. Peyton said she became interested in starting a business, and she likes dogs. Her mom said Peyton taught herself to sew the handmade face coverings. She began with $80 and raised $1,000 to donate. “We knew we were going to donate to an animal cause,” Christel Lilly said. “When we heard the dogs got shot and we knew they needed medical care, we wanted to donate to them.”

BRIEFS DEP announces free admission to state parks on Veterans Day The Florida Department of Environmental Protection is proud to continue a longstanding tradition of offering free admission to Florida State Parks for all visitors on Veterans Day, Thursday, Nov. 11, in gratitude for the courageous men and women who served in the nation’s armed forces. “I salute all those who have sacrificed to protect our freedoms and way of life,” said DEP Secretary Shawn Hamilton. “Florida’s beautiful state parks provide an abundance of opportunities for reflection and recreation. I hope everyone enjoys Veterans Day in their favorite state park, and that we all take the opportunity to thank our veterans for their service.” Additionally, veterans enjoy a year-round 25% discount on Florida State Parks annual entrance passes. Veterans who have service-related injuries, as well as surviving spouses and parents of veterans who died in combat, also receive a free lifetime pass that waives the entry fee to all Florida State Parks. “The Florida Park Service welcomes our nation’s veterans as visitors, volunteers and staff,” said Eric Draper, Director of Florida State Parks. “We are proud to offer free admission to our award-winning state parks in celebration of Veterans Day.” Florida State Parks is fortunate to have many veterans serving in a variety of capacities – from park managers to biologists. In fact, approximately 12% of the people employed by DEP’s Division of Recreation and Parks are veterans of the U.S. armed forces. The free admission offer does not include Skyway Fishing Pier State Park. All other use fees, such as overnight accommodations, will be charged as usual on Nov. 11, 2021. Learn more about how Florida State Parks appreciates veterans by attending a ceremony in the sidebar on the right.

Capt. Judy Rice, 70, has been flying for 30 years.

On the wings

of success Ormond Beach pilot is still living her dream JARLEENE ALMENAS

But nothing that was said to her stopped her from dreaming. When she was a child, Rice’s bed was always pushed up against the window so that she could look up at the sky. One night, she heard a loud rushing sound at sunset, and she bolted down the stairs to the front yard. Up above her, was a man in a hot air balloon. “That balloonist yells down to me, ‘What’s wrong, little girl? Cat’s got your tongue?’” Rice recalled. “It still chokes me up. He has no idea the impact that had on me at 3 or 4 years old, and that’s when I said, ‘Someday, I’m going to get there.’” And get there, she did.

of her mother’s dream, one she had repressed for almost four decades. “It was breathtaking,” Rice said. “Students say this, and it’s true, when you see the world from up there, and you’re looking down, it changes your whole perspective on life. All of the sudden, you realize how small we are.”

Now at 70 years old, Rice is living her dream. She founded ThinkGlobal Flight, a worldwide flight that promotes science, technology, engineering arts and mathematics education in students, and the past 30 years of her life have been filled with teaching students in aviation. A former president of the National Coalition for Aviation and Space Education, Rice left her school teaching position after 18 years to focus on developing aviation and aerospace courses and curriculums for the National 4-H Aerospace Curriculum Project. Since 1993, the Ormond Beach resident, who is also an instructor with Epic Flight Academy, has been recognized with awards such as the Experimental Aircraft Association’s Outstanding Ground Volunteer Award, the Minnesota Governor’s Award for Excellence in Aerospace Education, and in 2020, was awarded with a National Aeronautic Association record for speed over a recognized course from Kangerlussuaq, Greenland, to Reykjavik, Iceland. In 2015, she also conducted a world flight that engaged over 20,000 students in the United States and over 30 more countries in the span of one month. A ROLE MODEL

In 2007, while she was working as a contractor for the National 4-H Aerospace Curriculum Project, Rice received an assignment based out of the Flagler Executive Airport. By that time, she had Chuck, a

cherry red 1971 American Aviation AA-1A airplane, that matches not only the color of Rice’s hair, but also her car and flight jumpsuit. And Chuck needed a hangar. “He’s really, other than my son, my main focus in life. He’s my guy,” Rice said with a laugh. However, the Flagler Executive Airport had no hangars available, and a very long waiting list. But, there was a hangar open at the Ormond Beach Municipal Airport. The rest, for her, was history. At the Ormond airport, she said she found an airport with a community and leadership that appreciated aviation, and from the beginning, she knew she would retire here, though there’s little chance of Rice bidding her flying days goodbye anytime soon. Though she mainly teaches out of the New Smyrna Beach Municipal Airport, she hopes that with future expansions to the Ormond Beach airport, she’ll be able to expand operations locally. After all, like her role model Bessie Coleman, the first African-American woman and Native American to hold a pilot license, she’s never given up on her dreams, and she said her main mission in life is to help others not only realize their dreams, but find the courage to pursue them. “I say this with emotion,” Rice said. “I humbly bring the world to Ormond Beach, especially the airport. I bring the world to the youth of Ormond Beach, to the city, to the airport, with love.”

BREAKING BARRIERS

T

he Seabreeze girls bowling team topped its district win with a state championship trophy on Thursday, Nov. 4, at the Boardwalk Bowl Entertainment Center in Orlando, earning bragging rights as the first team in school history to win a state bowling title. Bowling commenced with the crack of pins dropping on 32 lanes as the Florida High School Athletic Association tournament opened Tuesday, Nov. 2. Going into their first matches, the Seabreeze girls — Sofia Allem, Kara Beissel, Breanna Hess, Madison Kuenning and Stacey Spaulding — were the No. 2 seed, while the boys were No. 14. The Sandcrab girls soundly defeated Jacksonville Sandalwood, 3-0, and followed that with another 3-0 win over Flagler Palm Coast. FPC progressed in the consolation bracket, narrowly losing in the final round to Bell Creek Academy, 3-2. “We were hoping we would get a chance to play them in the final,” FPC’s Madelynn Oliva said. “We grew up bowling on league together every Saturday. We are like family.” Seabreeze faced Bell Creek in the final. The Sandcrabs crushed the Panthers in the first game, 221-175. But after four games, Bell Creek had tied the match, 2-2. Spaulding helped shift the momentum in the final game by picking up strikes and making crucial spares, and Beissel threw the winning strike to clinch the championship with a 3-2 win. “I knew starting the season the girls should be in the final. They have the talent,” Seabreeze coach Paul Shuler said. “We were losing big time on that third game, and my girls just came right back. The momentum shifted in our favor and they nailed it. I knew they had the potential to be No. 1, and now they are.” The boys team was eliminated after falling to Apopka in a close 3-2

Stacey Spaulding

contest and then to Eau Gallie in the consolation bracket. “What it really boiled down to was executing shots,” boys team captain Spencer Mosher said. “The game is 90% mental and 10% physical. As long as you trust yourself, that’s what gets you to the championship 100%. At the end of the day, they are still young. I’m really excited for them next year.” Mosher went on to compete in the individual boys’ matches, while Allem competed in the girls’ matches, facing FPC’s Oliva. Both Seabreeze bowlers were defeated in the first round as Oliva went on to finish fourth in the individual bracket. Allem’s dad introduced her to the sport two years ago, and it stuck. She now bowls almost every day and would love to bowl in college. “Honestly, I couldn’t have gotten here without my teammates,” Allem said. “They’ve supported me through the whole entire season. They’ve cheered me up and cheered me on through the whole thing.” Sophomore Beissel was also introduced to bowling by her father, but she was four years old. Brian Beissel owns a pro shop and runs a training center at Ormond Lanes. He and his daughter travel to tournaments together and most recently attended a clinic in Houston where she trained with “the godfather of bowling,” Fred Borden, who was named the head coach of team USA in 1989. Kara Beissel remains the ballast for the Sandcrabs, usually scoring the high game and series, which she did during districts. “I am really proud of her,” Brian Beissel said. “She’s my girl.”

“I knew they had the potential to be No. 1, and now they are.” PAUL SHULER, Seabreeze bowling coach

The Seabreeze High School football team is hosting its first playoff game since 2007. Mainland, on the other hand, is in the playoffs for the 28th consecutive year. Both teams are right on schedule. Seabreeze will host Rockledge in a Region 2-5A quarterfinal on Friday, Nov. 12, at Daytona Stadium. Mainland will hit the road for a rematch with Orlando Jones in a Region 2-6A quarterfinal. In 2019, Seabreeze coach Pat Brown took over a team that went 1-9 and didn’t score more than seven points in any of its losses. The Sandcrabs went 5-5 in Brown’s first season. This year, they went 6-4, ending the season with four straight wins. After graduating 17 seniors and adding some transfers and freshmen to the lineup, it took time for the Sandcrabs to find their identity this season, Brown said. “It took time to see which pieces fit,” he said. After teams were having success running against the Sandcrabs early in the season, they reinforced their defensive front. Jamari Hicks and Toma Pouncey Jr. began the season as running backs. Both juniors volunteered to help out on defense, and now they are stalwarts on the defensive line. “They helped shore up some things. They’re kind of like unsung heroes,” Brown said. But perhaps the No. 1 reason for the Sandcrabs’ improved run defense has been the development of 275-pound sophomore defensive tackle Mike Shropshire. “From week to week, how much he gets better is frightening,” Brown said. Mainland (5-4) also figured things out as the season has progressed under first-year coach Travis Roland. The Bucs began the year 1-3 and were in danger of missing the playoffs for the time since 1993. But they have won four of their last five games, with their Nov. 5 season finale at Jacksonville Bolles canceled because of severe weather. The Bucs have improved their passing game in recent weeks and are more balanced, Roland said. “We threw 10 to 12 touchdown passes over the past month,” he said. “Now it complements our running game.” Email brent@palmcoastobserver. com.

about the race as Cassidy launched herself off the starter’s block. All seemed to have gone smoothly until the electric sensor detected that there was an early start by the fourth swimmer by .01 of a second. The quartet was disqualified. “Heartbreaking, but with technology, it happens,” Seabreeze coach John Nunnelley said. “At least they made it here. I’d rather it happen here than at regionals.” Orchard followed in the 50-yard freestyle. Even with a slip on the wall at his turn, he swam a 22.69 which was 0.2 seconds shy of his best time. Orchard and Cassidy each swam in the 100-yard freestyle in a pool of powerful sprinters. In the boys preliminaries, all 24 swimmers were clocked at under 50 seconds, while the girls came in under 58 seconds. O’Keefe qualified to swim in the 100-yard butterfly final, in which she bettered her time with a 59.29

Five Seabreeze swimmers traversed a cold, rainy morning to compete at the state championship held at the Sailfish Water Park and Aquatic Center in Stuart on Nov. 5. Seniors Clare Cassidy and Jordyn Eckert, junior Caleb Orchard and freshmen Mackenzie O’Keefe and Z.Z. Nichols had qualified at the regional meet in Fort Pierce. The girls 200-yard medley relay started off the day. Cassidy, Eckert, Nichols and O’Keefe were amped

and placed ninth in the state. The girls were also able to redeem themselves in the 200-yard freestyle relay final by shaving off almost a second off their qualifying time and finishing a strong 10th. Approximately 20 out of 50 Seabreeze swimmers are freshmen with one-third swimming yearround with a club team. Nunnelley is looking forward to what the next season will bring. “You’ve got to swim year round if you want to make it to this level,” he said. “If you are just swimming three months out of the year for the high school season, it’s going to be really hard to get to the next level. Getting into the pool consistently is the main thing.” Courtesy photo John Nunnelley
