SHERIFF PRESENTS ‘GREAT KIDS’ AWARDS Flagler County Sheriff’s Office Youth Services Commander Kim Burroughs visited three local schools June 3 to present three exceptional students with awards for being “Great Kids” for the month of May 2021. “The kids receiving the awards for May are all doing wonderful things throughout our schools and community,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “They’ve shown many leadership qualities, as well as kindness and respect to their teachers and peers. We want them to know we appreciate their efforts and hope they’ll continue to represent our county in great ways. We are here to help and support their goals in every way possible.” Brayden Murray is a fourthgrade student at Imagine School Town Center and is a participant in the PAL Run Flagler Race Series. On our first race of the spring series, Brayden showed his integrity by ensuring none of our runners had to run alone. Brayden completed his own race and ran alongside each of our
race finishers for the next few races to provide support and encouragement to get them to finish strong. He exemplifies the personality traits of a “great kid” and great friend. Grayson Blanchard is a seventh-grade student at Buddy Taylor Middle School. The FCSO recognizes him for maintaining an “A” honor roll in his advanced classes and honoring the responsibility that is required to maintain progress with his schoolwork and individual goals. He is a model Eagle and a model citizen in Flagler County,. Michael De Beauvoir is a senior at Matanzas High School. He has taken part in Interact Club with Mr. Deceglie, Book Club with Mr. Keen, and Key Club with Ms. Summerlot. He has participated in the Flagler Beach cleanup and with the food pantry and food distribution. He is also a full-time volunteer during the April blood drive with One Blood and Key Club. The “Great Kids” award is presented by the sheriff to students who show respect for their peers, help others, work hard in academics and represent themselves, their family and their school with great character.

TWO UNDERDOGS MAKE IT BIG Everyone loves a good “rags to riches” story. At Flagler Humane Society, we have bunches of them. Russell was skin and bones the day we met. Although Dobermans are normally strong, confident dogs, Russell was neglected. He lived outside of an abandoned home, several dogs chained around him. He had neurological from starvation. He had heartworm and intestinal parasites. His coat was dull, and his eyes were vacant. Another dog from the same property was Tony, a small but mighty male Chihuahua that, despite a life of neglect, was very friendly. When Tony was located, he was being kept in a cage in a tiny room of the abandoned house. In his cage was dry food spilled and mixed with feces. He had no water, no bedding. The floor of his cage was wire. He was in the cage 24/7. The tiny room that he was in had no ventilation. The smell of ammonia was overpowering. Our eyes burned and throats ached after just spending moments in the room where Tony had been for weeks or months. In cases like these, we have the legal right to rescue animals, pull them out of the dangerous environment and work to save their lives. Then it’s up to the courts to determine if the pet owner is fit to get their animal(s) back. As abuse victims are waiting, we often find them loving foster families to care for them. In Russell’s case, he was lucky enough to make his way

into the home and the hearts of two of our favorite volunteers, Tom and Adele. Within weeks , Russell was a new man. The neurological problems completely subsided. He is of a perfect weight and has the shiniest of shiny Doberman coats. Tom and Adele did what many foster parents do: They fell in love. Russell was adopted as soon as the judge ordered that the animals not be returned to their abuser. Tony was welcomed into the home of Lynn and her canine pack. Tony made himself at home quickly. Within the first month of adoption, went on vacation. Tony and his new mom have a tiny camper. Tony’s first vacation was to the Suwannee River State Park, where he made lots
