In an exclusive interview with the Ormond Beach Observer, Falafel revealed, for the first time publicly, that in fact he has perfect pitch. To test his claim, this reporter blew my nose and asked what note the sound could be approximated to represent. “Can I see that hanky?” Falafel asked. This reporter then noted the J.D.R.

I have personally witnessed what amazing faculty, staff, and administrators can do for kids when focused on igniting their passions.” His contract will expire on Dec. 1. Fritz said in his email that he will “faithfully serve each and every day with a purpose of improving our work for the remainder of my time.”

Plantation Oaks seeks to add 291 homes

School Board reacts to Fritz’s choice to opt out FROM PAGE 3

JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Fiber optic internet coming MetroNet, an independently owned fiber optic company headquartered in Indiana, announced on Monday, March 28, that it will soon bring fiber optic internet service directly to homes and businesses in Ormond Beach, Holly Hill and Daytona Beach. MetroNet will fully fund the project through a private multimillion-dollar investment, the press release stated. The two-year construction process will begin this summer, and the first customers will be able to receive the service before the end of 2022. Fiber optic networks give residents access to faster internet, with upload and download gigabit speeds, or 1,000 megabits per second. In December 2021, MetroNet announced a $50 million investment to bring its services to Palm Coast. Residents and businesses interested may visit MetronetInc.com/iwantfiber Residents will be notified by mail of construction activity in their neighborhood 30 days before MetroNet begins the project.

A site plan showing Plantation Oaks’ proposed lot design will be discussed by the Planning Board.

The Ormond Beach Planning Board will meet on Thursday, April 14, to discuss a major amendment to the Plantation Oaks development order that, if approved, would add 291 single-family homes to the subdivision. The homes would go in a 53-acre site that was previously set aside as a public school site and in a 145-acre parcel that was initially planned for a golf course. Plantation Oaks is currently approved to build 1,577 homes, made up of both age-restricted manufactured homes and single-family lots. If ultimately approved by the City Commission, the development will be able to build 1,868 lots. This is the second time developer Parker Mynchenberg, manager of Plantation Oaks of Ormond Beach LLC, has returned to the city for an

amendment to the Planned Residential Development since Plantation Oaks was annexed into the city in 2019. The 1,033-acre project by the Ormond Scenic Loop and Trail was first approved by Volusia County in 2002. In January 2021, the City Commission approved three amendments to the PRD which included lifting the age-restriction within the project’s first phase and changing the type of homes from manufactured to singlefamily. A portion of the golf course parcel is located within first phase of the project, which is already slated for 669 single-family lots. The amendment seeks to add 80 more. The latest amendment request also asks for the age restriction to be lifted from the third phase of the

project, the prohibition of manufactured homes and using the remainder of the golf course land to build 86 more lots. The remainder of the new lots requested would be located in the fourth phase of the project — 125 lots in the previously proposed school site. The city stated in an email that the school site is no longer needed. The new amendment would also remove the 33 acres near Old Dixie Highway purchased by Volusia County for preservation in April 2021. The Planning Board meeting will start at 6 p.m. at the City Commission Chambers at 22 S. Beach St. Written correspondence for inclusion in the meeting’s agenda packet must be emailed by 5 p.m. April 1 to Steven.Spraker@ormondbeach.org.

School Board member Carl Persis said that his first reaction to the news was one of disappointment. “I’m just sad that he feels that he doesn’t have the support from the board that he needs to move forward,” said Persis, who had been in favor of extending Fritz’s contract for three more years. And with the possible departure of Deputy Superintendent Carmen Balgobin — whom Persis said is soon to be recommended for the deputy superintendent position in Broward County Public Schools — Persis said a plan for stability needs to be in place soon. Balgobin, who was hired by Fritz in January 2020, acted as interim superintendent for nine months while Fritz was absent due to cancer. School Board Chair Ruben Colon agreed that the conversation on how to proceed is one the board will need to have. Last time, the district conducted a national search, but another option would be to promote internally. He’s confident the board will have no trouble finding another superintendent. “It’s a pretty new development and each of us is going to have an opinion on how we think we should proceed, and we’ll come together and come to a consensus and move forward,” Colon said. He added that he’s glad systems were put in place to improve the district, and that this work will continue on whether Fritz is here, or whether he himself gets reelected. “Students will still go to their classrooms and be educated by amazing teachers who are there to carry out the mission and vision of the school district,” Colon said.

Nathan Cobb Cottage designated as a Florida Heritage site The Ormond Beach Historical Society held a dedication ceremony for the cottage’s new marker on Saturday, March 26. JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

Another piece of Ormond Beach history is now marked as a Florida Heritage site. The Nathan Cobb Cottage, located at 137 Orchard Lane, was built in 1897 from salvaged wood and cargo belonging to the Nathan F. Cobb schooner, which shipwrecked on Dec. 5, 1896, near what is now the Cardinal Drive beach approach. It is believed that the 125-year-old cottage may be the only standing building in the state constructed from the remains of a wooden schooner, according to the Ormond Beach Historical Society. The Historical Society held a dedi-

cation ceremony on Saturday, March 26, for the cottage’s new historic marker, installed last November. The marker was approved in May 2021, and cost the Historical Society $2,200. Randy Jaye, who serves on the Historical Society’s Board of Directors, said that there are 4,208 Florida Historical markers throughout the state’s 67 counties, meaning that few buildings and sites meet the state’s criteria for the designation. “Fortunately, the Nathan Cobb Cottage checks all the required boxes,” Jaye said. “And now the entire state knows what we locally know, and what is that? We have a historical gem here and it’s an important landmark, and it’s surely worth the money, time and effort to preserve it.” THE HISTORY OF THE NATHAN F. COBB SHIPWRECK

The Nathan F. Cobb schooner, built in 1890, had three masts, measured 167 feet and weighed 656 tons. It was damaged by a nor’easter storm

off the coast of North Carolina on Dec. 1, 1896, during which two of her crewmen drowned. The remainder of the crew was able to right the ship after removing her masts, and the ship drifted for four days until it ran aground on a sandbar off the coast of Ormond Beach.

The Nathan Cobb Cottage, located at 137 Orchard Lane, was built in 1897 from salvaged wood and cargo belonging to the Nathan F. Cobb schooner.

The Nathan F. Cobb schooner shipwrecked on Dec. 5, 1896, near what is now the Cardinal Drive beach approach.

According to the Historical Society, as soon as Joseph Price of the Hotel Ormond heard the news, he rounded up employees and headed to the beach to help. Among them was 23-year-old Freeman Waterhouse, the hotel’s bookkeeper, who drowned in the rescue attempt. The shipwreck happened over a century ago, but when the tide conditions are just right, you may be able to spot the hull buried in the sandbar — a reason why a sign on the sand by the shipwreck location warns bathers to avoid water activities 50 feet on either side of the sign. “The hull outline can still be see after all these years,” Jaye said. “Absolutely unbelievable.” The Nathan Cobb Cottage was built by Billy Fagen, one of Ormond Beach’s earliest pioneers, who was given permission to salvage wood from the schooner for the construction. In attendance at the ceremony was one of Fagen’s descendants: Kitty Fagen Garrett, his great-niece. Her father often recalled tales of playing at the cottage as a child, and she said the first time she and her sister Shirley saw it in the early 1970s, the cottage looked much different. It was worn, and in need of repairs. “But look at it now, due to all of y’all,” she said, referring to the Historical Society. “I was worried that it would never happen, really. But it’s happened — I think it’s great.”

A ‘HISTORICAL GEM’

In the past, the cottage was much larger than its current 391-square feet. It had a 25-foot-long breezeway and an outer-kitchen building, both of which were removed in the 1920s after decades of humid Florida summers the result of the ship’s wood being untreated resulted in rot. Jaye said this is why the cottage is an important “historical gem.” “After 125 years, it’s not that big of a stretch of imagination to believe that most of these places rotted away or are met with the wrecking ball with modern developments,” Jaye said. “... When you think about it, I think it’s a time capsule, and I think it tells a story of Florida’s past.” In 2014, the cottage was purchased for $132,900 by the late Tom Massfeller, who was a dedicated board member of the Historical Society until his death at 72 years old on June 1, 2020. In 2018, Massfeller told the Ormond Beach Observer that he had been working hard to preserve the home since he purchased it. He had found historic items in the home’s yard: a scythe, a door knob and a doll’s miniature toy iron. “You look around and you see a lot of history,” Massfeller said in the interview. And before his death, he made sure the cottage would remain in good hands, leaving it in his will to the Historical Society. Historical Society member Joyce Benedict said that if Massfeller could see the marker today, he’d cry. “He saved the house,” she said. “He really, really cared about history, so for us to have it now in our Historical Society for safekeeping is an honor.” Benedict popped open a bottle of champagne during the ceremony, and after all in attendance were served, the Historical Society members raised their glasses. “To Tom,” they cheered.

LETTERS Ormond taxpayers paying for growth Dear Editor: On Jan. 18, the Ormond Beach City Commission approved a contract for preliminary engineering design for construction of a second wastewater treatment plant on the western boundary of our city. The City Commission also approved significant water and sewer rate increases for both this year and next year, higher bills that will bring the greatest impact on low income homes. Public Works Director Shawn Finley acknowledged that 50%60% of the need for the second sewer plant is driven by the planned Avalon Park development in Daytona Beach, 3,250 homes and 200,000 square feet of commercial space west of I-95, bordering the south side of Granada Boulevard. Ormond Beach has the right but not the obligation to provide water and sewer service at wholesale prices to this massive development. Previously, the city agreed to annex and provide water and sewer to Plantation Oaks, 1,500 homes to be built on The Loop. Just south, the city will ultimately annex 103 acres for 298 new housing units in RidgeHaven that will not apply principles of Low Impact Development. Townhomes are under construction at the U.S. 1 entrance to Ormond Lakes while just west future growth in Ormond Crossings will include hundreds of new

homes. Meanwhile, the city continues to provide water and sewer service to Flagler County portions of Hunter’s Ridge, with more Flagler residential growth to come. Within the city, a south Florida developer plans to squeeze 318 homes onto the 18 holes of the now-closed Tomoka Oaks golf course. With each annexation or new development, and during the recent city consideration of extending sewer service to miles of unincorporated county homes on the north peninsula, city commissioners told citizens we had adequate sewer capacity to provide the additional services. These assurances now seem contradicted by the recent approval of plans for a second sewer plant. Why have our elected officials pursued such aggressive growth policies without a public mandate, public referendum, or campaign promises to do so? Why are we providing water and sewer service to enable the Avalon Park megadevelopment, after Daytona Beach annexed those acres in direct violation of the service boundary agreement that previously existed between our cities? If Ormond Beach taxpayers are responsible for most of the capital costs for a second sewer plant, are we not funding the problematic growth our citizens do not want or need? JEFF BOYLE Ormond Beach

TIPS APPRECIATED 11:30 a.m. — 600 block of South Yonge Street Burglary. A business called police after an unknown suspect broke into their building and stole change from a tip jar, and about three-quarters of a dollar bill that was tacked in front of the jar. According to the report, the business owner noticed upon arrival that the back window was open, with the lock appearing broken or forced open. Not much was missing beyond the $3 in the tip jar, she indicated, but the food in her fridge did spoil as the burglar left the fridge door open. She wished to pursue charges.

SUPERMARKET LOITERER 7:12 p.m. — 1500 block of West Granada Boulevard Loitering or prowling. A 31-year-old DeLand man was arrested after he was seen trying to enter locked cars in the parking lot of a supermarket. Police report that upon their arrival, they noticed the man’s shirt was inside out and that he appeared to be under the influence of narcotics or alcohol. While police were speak-

ing to him, he was unable to stand upright, and was slurring his speech. He initially couldn’t tell officers why he was at the supermarket, but later said he was there to buy deodorant. Supermarket employees said he had entered the store, pushed three carts, yelled and then taken his leave. He was trespassed from the store and transported to jail.

MARCH 22

FAKE LICENSE 9:22 p.m. — 200 block of Williamson Boulevard Possession of forged driver’s license. After responding to a car crash involving a motorcycle, police issues charges for a 54-year-old Ormond Beach man, the motorcycle driver, who fled the scene on foot and had a warrant for his arrest. Witnesses said they saw the man “dump” his motorcycle on the road and walk away after the crash. The motorcycle’s registered owner arrived at the scene and said she had taken the man to the hospital. Police made contact with the man at the hospital, and the man provided them with several fake names and dates of birth before showing them a fake driver’s license. However, officers learned his real name from the hospital bracelet he sported. When asked about the fake driver’s license, the man said it was “ along story,” according to his arrest report. He remained at the hospital for medical needs.

FAITH’s annual action assembly pushes for affordable housing Paradise Pointe celebrates topping out

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3

officials invited to the FAITH Action Assembly on Monday, March 28, showed up in person at the Daytona Beach Drive-in Christian Church to voice support for three critical issues: affordable housing, restorative practices in education, and criminal justice reform for both juveniles and adults. “Our officials are not taking us seriously,” said Phil Egitto, pastor of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, during the assembly’s closing remarks. “We have to demand more communication and more accountability. This is the largest interfaith gathering, and it is unconscionable that our elected representatives are ignoring us.” FAITH, which stands for Fighting Against Injustice Toward Harmony, is a nonprofit coalition of almost 30 religious congregations in Volusia County. This year’s action assembly called upon elected officials to make public commitments on the creation of a housing trust fund, implementation of restorative practices to reduce out-of-school suspensions, and a continued rally for the use of civil citations for juveniles committing non-serious misdemeanors. In preparation for the assembly, all elected officials were given copies of the questions in advance and were invited to a pre-meeting with one of the coalition’s committees. Rev. John Gill from Tomoka United Methodist Church in Ormond Beach said that the assembly is meant to confront injustices, not the elected officials personally. “We intend no hurt feelings,” Gill said. “We are addressing the officials because they have the power to change systems, and we as their constituents have the right and the responsibility to voice our concerns.” TESTIMONY FROM A LOCAL

As the price for housing in Volusia County continues to rise, the availability of affordable housing shrinks. According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition, the fair market rent for a one-bedroom apartment in the state is $1,049 a month; a two-bedroom, $1,290. In Volusia County, average rent for a one-bedroom apartment is $955 a month, and a two-bedroom will cost renters an average of $1,488, said Karen DeLisle, member of Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church. In order to afford a one-bedroom apartment, a Volusia resident would have to make over $17 an hour, or just over $34,000 a year. Yet, the average renter’s wage, per NLIHC, is about $13. “It means that our health care workers, grocery store clerks, security guards and so many others in our

ON RESTORATIVE PRACTICES AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM Also in attendance at the assembly was Volusia County School Board member Carl Persis, who affirmed he will continue to advocate for restorative practices in schools. In 2018, FAITH’s education committee discovered that disciplinary practices in Volusia schools were unfairly weighed against minority and disabled students. Now, based on reports from the school district to FAITH, out-of-school high school suspensions have decreased by 76% in the last two years. In middle school, they are down 56% and elementary school, 67%. The number of juvenile arrests in lieu of civil citations has also plumetted. When FAITH began the initiative, 650 children a year were arrested for first-time, non-serious, misdemeanor offenses. Last year, FAITH reports that number decreased to 110. Based on FAITH’s data, from February 2021 to January 2022, 73% of juveniles eligible under the jurisdicition of Ormond Beach Police received a civil citation instead of being arrested. Daytona Beach Police and the Volusia Sheriff’s Office both issued a citation to 66% of its eligible juveniles. Port Orange Police had one of the lowest percentages for the date range, at 50%. Daytona Beach Commissioners Ken Strickland, Quanita May, and Ruth Trager attended the assembly vowed to vote to implement a policy that all juveniles eligible for civil citations be given one for their first offense.

community who fill essential services are not earning enough to keep a roof over their heads,” DeLisle said. And when an emergency strikes, that problem is often highlighted, as was the case for Ormond Beach resident Francis Owings, who shared her testimony at the assembly. A few years ago, she lived in an apartment along the river, and a hurricane was coming. She was told by the management of her complex that there was no risk of flooding. “When I got up in the middle of the night, I realized my entire apartment

FAITH held it annual action assembly on Monday, March 28.

was flooded,” Owings said. “With water coming up to just below my knees.” She lost her car, clothes and furniture, and though she received support from FEMA, she said the “financial and emotional impact was long-lasting.” Last year, she moved to an apartment in Port Orange with her grandson, and from the beginning, dealt with a leaking roof and mold issues. Management, she said, refused to address the issue, and they stayed because they couldn’t afford to leave. They were evicted in November after refusing to pay rent since the mold was making them sick, and moved into a hotel. Currently, they reside in a house belonging to her sister, who died recently. They’ll live there until the house is sold. “Once it is, I don’t know where we’ll go,” Owings said. “Because the rent is too expensive everywhere we look. Our county desperately needs a Housing Trust Fund.” FUNDING THE INITIATIVE

FAITH began sounding the alarm on the lack of affordable housing three years ago. Though there has been some movement — an affordable housing summit was held in December 2021 and the city of Daytona Beach have commissioned a study on linkage fees — more support for a housing trust fund is needed, said Jackie Mole, of Allen Chapel AME. “No county officials ever told us that a Housing Trust Fund is the wrong solution, only that they don’t know where the money would come from, and don’t want to raise taxes,” Mole said. “But last year, our county received $107 million in COVID relief funds from the federal government’s American Rescue Plan.” The city of Winter Haven, he said, used $10 million to kickstart its housing trust fund. The counties of Orange, Seminole and Hillsborough have also created such funds in the last several years.

Last year, FAITH drafted an ordinance that called for use of at least $2.5 million of ARPA funds to create the trust fund, and additionally asked at least $1 million were added annually. “We know that in order to truly solve the massive problem, we need well over $1 million a year.” Mole said. “We need to identify a dedicated revenue source.” That’s why FAITH is asking the county to study linkage fees, which would ensure a certain portion of funds per square foot of new development for the trust fund. NEXT STEPS

The only County Council member to attend in person was Barb Girtman, though Councilwomen Heather Post and Billie Wheeler submitted their responses in writing and vowed to support a housing trust fund and a study of linkage fees. Councilmen Danny Robins and Fred Lowry never responded to FAITH’s invitation, and neither did Chair Jeff Brower. Councilman Ben Johnson advised he would not be in attendance. Girtman said that this was her fourth year attending the assembly, and she hoped she would have an additional four years to advocate for affordable housing. “I’ve had challenges with housing as a single mom,” she said. “I know how critical this is. I’m also a Realtor, so I also know how critical this is for our community.” On May 3, FAITH representatives will deliver housing trust fund petition signatures to the County Council at its meeting. “We need you to join us and bring as many folks as you can,” said Rev. Ben Collins, of Collective United Methodist Church in DeLand. “There’s a lot of people here. Let’s get a good representation of this crowd and show them that we stand together, we can’t be ignored and that the housing trust fund can’t wait.”

Paradise Pointe of Ormond Beach and construction firm Robins & Morton recently celebrated the topping out of a three-story, 75,000-squarefoot assisted living and memory care community nestled in the city of Ormond Beach. “Paradise Pointe is owned and operated by local physicians, nurses and those who have a focus on keeping residents safe and healthy in a homelike environment,” Chief Executive Officer Darlinda Copeland said. “Our owners are residents of Volusia and Flagler counties who strive to provide the best memory and assisted living care for the community.” Paradise Pointe will feature 87 private apartments in a luxury, resortstyle setting. The suites offer large living spaces, walk-in closets and innovative technology in a building with expansive courtyards in a natural setting. “We are honored that Paradise Pointe has entrusted Robins & Morton to build their vision of care for the community,” said Robins & Morton Vice President Bruce Adams. Paradise Pointe is located at 350 Clyde Morris Blvd. and is scheduled to open this winter. BPF Design Incorporated of Daytona Beach is serving as the architect. Robins & Morton is the general contractor.

‘Thank you for today’ Jewish Heritage Festival brings culture, gratitude to Ormond. MICHELE MEYERS CONTRIBUTING WRITER

Matzah making, Moses and Biblical friends meandering amid the festivities and a 6-year old camel named Peanut giving rides to the crowd were a sampling of the cultural experiences offered at the Jewish Heritage Festival on Sunday, March 27, at The Casements. The inaugural festival was held in March 2008 with approximately 10,000 people in attendance. It became a biennial event with 2020 being postponed due to COVID-19. This year’s festival was dedicated to three individuals who were involved extensively in the Jewish community and died during the event’s hiatus — Lynn Goldovitz, Gloria Max and Marta Heller. Rabbi S. David Kane led everyone in a prayer of gratitude, a reflection of the festival’s theme. “Holy Creator, thank you for today,” he said. “Thank you for the ability to join together to honor the heritage of Judaism and American Judaism.” Festival president Jeffrey Bigman brought shofar blowers Murray Steinberg and Roberto Mendez to the Jerusalem stage to kick off the celebration. A shofar is a musical instrument traditionally made from a ram’s horn and used for religious or significant Jewish occasions. Mendez used to play trombone with a Latin salsa band in Puerto Rico which made it easy for him to transition to the shofar. “When you hear the shofar being blasted, it’s God’s voice,” he said. “My ancestors are Sephardic Jews from Spain. They came from Israel so when I saw the shofar, I knew God led me to it.” Contemporary and traditional Jewish music played

throughout the day as revelers enjoyed the tastes of Kosher, Israeli and Jewish food. People were lined up at My Homeys’ tent where they could purchase gourmet hamantaschen — a folded, triangular shaped cookies, traditionally filled with fruit. Owner Sharon Goldish started the business about five years ago following a career as a surgeon. She noticed how cupcakes had evolved to include a wide array of flavors and decided to experiment with her cookies. “I spent a year in my kitchen,” she said. “I took classes, experimented with recipes and came up with about 20

different flavors — different combinations of doughs and fillings. Then I launched the business.” Kids also got a chance to have fun in the kitchen at the festival. Rabbi Asher Farkash, the program director at the Chabad of greater Daytona, led the children’s Matzah Bak-

ery Workshop for two sessions during which he taught them how to make matzah. “We are teaching the children the traditions,” he said. “Giving them the love of the holiday, the love of the festivals, a love for Judaism. It is a beautiful thing. The kids get to experience the heritage. They

get to experience the Judaism. It’s not just something of the past but something of the present. By giving our children a positive experience with their religion, it helps them and encourages them to pass it on to their children. It’s all about education.”

Country star Brian Kelley launches first solo tour See the Ormond Beach native perform at the Bandshell April 21. SWEET TALK PUBLICITY

Ormond Beach native and country superstar Brian Kelley, of Florida Georgia Line, is bringing the beach to the stage on his first-ever solo tour – Made by the Water Tour, presented by Boat Trader and his partners at Oyster City Brewing Co. “Y’all, I am beyond excited to announce my own tour,” Kelley said. “Releasing my first album has been nothing short of a dream come true, and I can’t wait to bring these songs, along with some beach vibes, to the stage.” After “making waves with his first solo project” as hailed by People Magazine, the 11-date tour will bring Kelley’s signature “easy-going sound that combines surf and spurs,” according to Billboard, to the spotlight. Inspired by his debut album which American Songwriter deemed “some of the best modern country put to tape,” Kelley will launch in his home state on April 21 at the Daytona Beach Bandshell, with stops in South Carolina, North Carolina, Louisiana, and more, before docking on May 19 at The Hall in Little Rock, Arkansas. Kelley blazed a sonic path through the coastal dunes of his youth as he found allgood inspiration while reconnecting to his Florida roots in debut album, “Sunshine State of Mind.” Co-writing and coproducing the 17-track “love letter to the beach life” alongside Corey Crowder, he looked beyond the water’s edge and took a deep dive into the place where his soul is most

Stretch goals Wilson, Bucs come up big in flag football win

Mainland’s Adrianna Mallumaci stretches for yards.

BRENT WORONOFF STAFF WRITER

It’s hard to say which play was bigger. Alexa Wilson’s touchdown pass to Molly Brunson to put Mainland ahead for good? Or Wilson’s interception for a touchdown on the Bucs’ next series? They were both big, said Mainland coach Ethan Simpson. The Bucs shook off their rust and defeated rival Seabreeze 25-6 with three fourth-quarter touchdowns March 26 in a Five Star Conference flag football quarterfinal at Flagler Palm Coast High School. The Bucs (3-0) went on to defeat tournament host FPC in the semifinals 19-0 on March 29 and will meet Spruce Creek (5-0) for the championship at 6 p.m. Thursday, March 31 at FPC. Wilson, who will continue her flag football career next season at Thomas University in Georgia, passed for 152 yards and three touchdowns against the Sandcrabs (2-2). She also had two interceptions on defense. “Alexa led the offense and

had the pick-six,” Simpson said. “She’s our go-to in big moments.” Simpson said he was nervous before the game, because the Bucs were coming off two rainouts and had not played since their opener on March 8. “The players responded. They really showed their heart,” Simpson said. Seabreeze tied the score at 6-6 on the first play of the fourth quarter as Kyle Watson caught a touchdown pass from quarterback Chelsea McQuarrie. But Mainland answered with a long scoring pass from Wilson to Brunson on the next drive. Wilson called it a “makesomething-happen play.” “It was not supposed to go to Molly,” she said. “It was supposed to go to the opposite side on a go-route, but it was covered. The whole defense went where my eyes went, and Molly was left open.” Brunson caught five passes for 82 yards and two touchdowns. The fourth-quarter score and extra-point pass put the Bucs up 13-6 and changed the game’s momentum, Simpson said. But with

Seabreeze back on offense, Wilson applied the dagger, intercepting the first-down pass and returning it for a score. Wilson is the daughter of former Mainland football coach Scott Wilson, who won 103 games in 11 seasons before stepping down last year. Alexa Wilson has learned over the years about the importance of film study. She said she watched film of Mainland’s game with Seabreeze last year to prepare. “I studied tendencies, and down and distance,” she said. “I knew who the quarterback was throwing it to.”

Four Seabreeze weightlifters placed in the snatch competition at the Five Star conference boys championships March 23 at Flagler Palm Coast High School. “This is the first year (of the snatch competition) and we’re starting to get our feet wet with it,” said coach Pat Brown.

in the unlimited class had a 135- pound snatch, and Taylor, a 199-pounder, had a 155-pound snatch lift.

Taylor was the only Seabreeze lifter to reach the podium in the traditional bench press/clean and jerk competition, placing sixth with a 290-pound bench, and a 230 clean and jerk for a 520 total. Seabreeze finished fifth in the snatch competition with 15 points and ninth in the traditional competition with one point. FPC won the snatch title with 51 points. University was second with 40 points. Spruce Creek edged the host Bulldogs 52-50 in the traditional competition. “For a lot of our guys, this is their first time being here,” Brown said. “It’s good for them to see what the competition is like, what the atmosphere is like.” Email brent@palmcoastobserver.com.

Zavier Mincey’s two first-place finishes in the jumping events helped propel Mainland to second place in the boys’ standings at the VolusiaFlagler Freshman-Sophomore Track and Field Championships on March 23 at Matanzas High School. Seabreeze finished second in the girls’ competition at the meet, which had been postponed from March 9 because of rain.

The Mainland sophomore handily won the long jump with a distance of 20 feet, 3 inches. FPC’s Cody Newton was second, more than a foot short of Mincey, at 18 feet, 7 inches. The Bucs also took first place in discus with Micah Mcquire throw-

to stay calm more, because I feel under pressure a lot, but I think I’m going to do well. I try to stay focused but not too much; otherwise, I feel like I’ll choke.” This is the second time Arab and Ochipa have played doubles together. The first time was against New Smyrna Beach, where they won 8-0. “I love the competition,” Ochipa said. “School matches are great, but the level of competition we get here is just fun and it goes all day.” Arab started playing tennis seriously at 8 years old. She is also passionate about soccer and divides her school year between the two sports. Ochipa picked up a racket at the age of 3 but began playing year-round at 12. She has been playing for three years on Patel’s club team — the Trailblazers. Last season, Ochipa played a No. 2

A downpour interrupted the Five Star Conference tennis championships March 24 at the Florida Tennis Center in Daytona Beach. Nine high schools competed in the annual tournament which wrapped up the following day. The Flagler Palm Coast girls team upset powerhouse Spruce Creek with a first-place finish while the Hawks’ boys team switched places with the Bulldogs and brought home the title. Both Seabreeze boys and girls teams placed third. “I think we could have gone further in the overall in other lines, but we underperformed,” said Seabreeze coach Trishna Patel. “It happens. It was a learning experience. The team agreed we will work on closing the gap against the top two schools. I know we have the talent to do that.” Seabreeze’s No. 1 singles player, Mac Chiumento, finished second, falling to University freshman Daksh Talati in the final. He and his doubles partner, Leo Kwetkus, lost to Spruce Creek’s Hayden Ensminger and Jenson Nord in the No. 1 doubles semifinals. Ensminger and Nord went on to win the final. The Sandcrabs’ girls team was dealt a blow when their No. 1 singles player, Geraldine Garcia, resigned to focus on her competitive tennis career.

Montessori Global earns accreditation Joan Baliker brings ‘Peace’ to Halifax Health Hospice It is the only school accredited by the American Montessori Society in the Volusia, Flagler and St. Johns County area. JARLEENE ALMENAS ASSOCIATE EDITOR

When Drs. David Cipolloni and Ambar Saleh-Cipolloni opened Montessori Global Research Institute in Ormond Beach in 2010, operating out of one small room at Faith Lutheran Church with a single student, they had no idea that over the next decade, their school would grow to almost 120 students. And recently, Montessori Glob-

al obtained another milestone: It became the 18th accredited school by the American Montessori Society in the state of Florida. The school, located at 53 N. Old Kings Road, Suite E, is now the only AMS-accredited Montessori school in the Volusia, Flagler and St. Johns County area, a process that took the former college professors about seven years. For Saleh-Cipolloni, it is an achievement that also symbolizes responsibility. “Dr. Maria Montessori never really did copyrights back in the day,” she said. “So there are many schools using the Montessori name but not practicing the integrity of her work, which is a disservice to the students.” According to the American Montessori Society, Dr. Maria Montessori was an Italian educator, physician and scientist who, in 1907, opened a childcare center for disadvantaged and previously unschooled children where she developed teaching methods that, though guided and assessed by teachers, are student-led and self-paced in a multi-age classroom. Saleh-Cipolloni said she first came across the Montessori method when she took a pedagogy theory class while studying early childhood education in college. Her four children were raised with the method,

“Dr. Maria Montessori never really did copyrights back in the day. So there are many schools using the Montessori name but not practicing the integrity of her work, which is a disservice to the students.” AMBAR SALEH-CIPOLLONI

and now that her school has gained accreditation, she said it feels like they are accountable to Montessori’s legacy and the integrity of her work. “To me, education is so important, because truly what is powerful is knowledge,” Saleh-Cipolloni said. “And what brings success is that ability to gain understanding. ... I think the students, and the parents and the community need to be informed in what truly Montessori is, and one way was to do the accreditation, because it is a very rigorous process.” There is a second accreditation agency for Montessori schools — Association Montessori International. One school in DeLeon Springs is AMI accredited. Sometimes a challenge emerges when presenting the teaching method to parents or teachers who have gone through traditional education, said her husband and co-head of school, Dr. David Cipolloni, who has consulted in Volusia County for over 25 years in early childhood development. Children, after experiencing the independence in the classroom, bring that home with them. “The hardest thing is to lose is that expectation of yourself as an adult as someone that’s in charge of everything, because to truly respect a child means that you’re literally at their level,” he said. “When you see the teachers and so on, they’re not standing up in front of a classroom. They’re interacting in our community.” What’s next for Montessori Global? The Ormond Beach couple are developing and working on the accreditation of a teacher training program. “Not only do we feel that it’s important to provide an example of how to treat children respectfully and successfully, we also need to train teachers,” Cipolloni said.

Baliker, of Ormond Beach, believes art can heal. LOGAN DEBERRY MARKETING SPECIALIST, HALIFAX HEALTH

Local artist, interfaith minister and former hospice volunteer Joan Baliker has donated her bronze sculpture “Peace” to Halifax Health–Hospice. Baliker is a 90-year-old Ormond Beach resident. “Peace” is a lifesized, self-sculpture of a little Lutheran girl meditating that demonstrates an intersection of faiths. “I believe every religion is saying the same thing at base level,” Baliker said. After studying religions, she grew to honor all spiritual paths and worked to incorporate the sentiment in a collection of sculptures known as “Peace Seekers.” The sculpture being donated to Halifax Health–Hospice was the first of the series and speaks to the demand for increased communication and connection around the world. Baliker has exhibited her works at art shows around the country to help observers find common ground. For years, “Peace” has elicited emotional responses from viewers of all backgrounds and experiences. “It is my hope that just viewing ‘Peace’ will help us find some measure of hope for the future,” Baliker said. Visitors and patients walking through the Halifax Health–Hospice’s outdoor garden will be able to interpret the imagery and reflect upon its nameplate’s inscription, “Peace Begins Within.” “We are honored to be installing an incredible work of art like ‘Peace’ at

The Contractor(s) shall provide these services for Herbert R. Donica, the Court Appointed Receiver, for the property on a lump sum or a time and materials not-to-exceed basis. Bid Packages will be available for distribution at the pre-bid Meeting, and on Thursday April 14, 2022, after 11:00 AM (EDT) from the Receiver’s website. All Bidders are required to register at the website to receive the bid package. The website address is: https://www.pineypointreceivership. com/ Donica Receivership Services, LLC requests Bids from responsible vendors with demonstrable experience in phosphogypsum stack closure construction to meet its upcoming needs. A brief description of the procurement is provided for Bidders’ convenience; detailed information and requirements will be included in the Bid Package. If you are interested and able to meet these requirements, Donica Receivership Services, LLC welcomes a Bid from your company. Brief Description: The Piney Point Phosphogypsum Stack System (the “Stack System”) is located in Manatee County, Florida. The Stack System currently has four partially closed phosphogypsum compartments. Phosphogypsum is a byproduct of fertilizer production. On August 25, 2021, the Manatee Circuit Court entered an order appointing Herbert R. Donica as a Receiver to take control of the Stack System and oversee its final closure. The purpose of the Receivership is to remove the pond water inventory, maintain, repair, and permanently close the Stack System so that it is no longer a threat to public safety and the environment. This procurement is for the closure of one of the four former phosphogypsum stack compartments, the Old Gyp Stack – South (the “OGS-S”). The OGSS has an area of approximately 24 acres and does not currently hold standing water, except any accumulated rainfall. The OGS-S compartment was partially closed (i.e., lined with HDPE liner) and used to store marine sediments generated by the

dredge operations, and does not contain phosphate industry related process water. The permanent closure of the OGS-S compartment will involve the following main tasks but not limited to: (i) installation of a high-strength woven geotextile over a portion of the pond that has soft marine sediments (approximately 14 acres); (ii) placement of a layer of clean sand (to be provided by the Receiver), approximately 3 to 6 feet in thickness, to act as a surcharge and to provide a stable base for light construction equipment traffic; (iii) installation of a consolidation water collection drain system within the sand layer; (iv) installation of a gas venting system on top of the sand layer; (v) placement of a sand or gypsum layer (approximately 1 foot thick) on top of the10-acre area of the compartment that is filled with coarse dredge materials; (vi) installation of a 60-mil high-density polyethylene (HDPE) geomembrane (i.e., liner) over the entire pond; (vii) placement of a minimum of 24” of compacted clean soil cover (to be provided by the Receiver) on top of the HDPE Liner; (viii) installation of a stormwater control system (comprised of a sand drain, a control structure and a broad-crested weir with erosion protection cut in the gypsum perimeter dike); (ix) Pipe penetrations through the existing gypsum perimeter dike for the drain and stormwater system to discharge water outside of the pond; (x) grassing, and; (xi) any other related tasks as shown in the design Drawings and Engineering Specifications to support complete closure of the OGS-S pond to meet the Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s approved Conceptual Closure Plan and the closure requirements of Rule 62-673, Fla. Admin. Code. Projected starting and ending dates will be disclosed in the Bid Package. Please read the entire Bid Package and submit a Bid for evaluation in accordance with the instructions. All forms and signature areas contained in the Bid Package must be completed in full and submitted along with the proposal, which will constitute the Bid. Inexperienced Contractors and Bids that do not conform to the Bid Package forms and bid requirements may not be considered. All Dates/Times are UTC/GMT -4:00 hours (Eastern Daylight Time), Palmetto, Florida, USA. The Receiver reserves the right to reject any and all Bids, to waive irregularities, if any, and accept the Bid, which in the judgment of the Receiver, is determined to be in its best interest.
