Macclenny, Florida 50s


15-year probation



for 'very elaborate'



check kite scheme


A NMacclennm \woman re-
ceixed a very rare 15-\ear proba-
tion on Monday of this %week for
conducting what one iniestiga-
tor terms "a xer elaborate and
brilliant\ executed" check kiting
scheme earlier this year. using
the Clerk of Courts office as a
conduit.
Cind' Harris, 38. pleaded no
contest in circuit court on Co-
lumbus Day and %was adjudged
guilty of grand theft by Judge
Da\id Giant before he pro-
nounced sentence. He also or-
dered her to repa\ restitution of
$26.694. the bulk of it to CUNA
Medical Group.
Check kiding involves fraud
using several banking outlets.
covering checks writtenn on ac-
counts by mo\ ing deposits ahead
of them and using what is essen-
tially the same pool of moneN.
In this case. the state charged
Ms. Harris used the child-sup-
port division of the clerk's court-
house office to deposit over
1100 checks totaling $810.000
from March through No\ember.
2005.
Because it %\as a kite scheme.
the $810.000 nexer existed: it is
simply the sum total of all the
checks written using proceeds is-
sued by the clerk s office.
Ms. Harris used an unspeci-
fied amount of the original seed
mone\ from the insurance com-
pany to purchase household
items and. she told authorities,
to help the son of ex-husband
William Dunn, \\ho is a cancer
patient.
Mr. Dunn's statement in the
case file indicates he had "no
clue" about the hoax and kept
up only with his $400 monthly
child-support payments. Addi-
tionally, he affirmed his son has
cancer but has never received
money from his ex-w ife.
The kiting unraveled on No-
vember 14, 2005 when several
checks Ms. Harris handed over to
the child support desk bounced,
and Clerk Al Fraser put a stop-
payment on the check his office
issued to her that equalled the
deposit,- $22,624.27.
Child support payments are
typically brought to the clerk's
office via court orders and it de-
posits them before making pay-
ments to the appropriate party.
Ms. Harris was the proper re-
cipient in this case, and invented
an elaborate story to explain why
she was bringing in money to
be re-issued to her through the
clerk's account.'
Deputy clerk Katie Kennedy
said Ms. Harris initially told her
she would be bringing in numer-
ous checks representing proceeds
of a trust her lawyer established
because Mr. Dunn's family "had.
come into some money."
The checks were noted with
various memo notes like "edu-
cation" and "medical" and the
clerk's office issued checks for
Ms. Harris for the same amounts

assuming she xas depositing
them into the trust account for
two sons.
She also told Nis. Kennedy
because the trust deposits well
exceeded Mr. Dunn's $400
monthly, the\ would evenntuall
wipe out his obligation.
The hoa\ is outlined in a re-
port by state attorney inmestiga-
tor Roman Alharez. vho has
since retired and been replaced
by Mike Combs of NMacclenm'.
a former BCSO investigator. The
"nuts and bolts" of the opera-
tion impressed an official of the
parole and probation office that
x\ ill super\ ise Ms. Harris for the
next decade and a half.
"The details of this case define
a \en elaborate and brilliantly
executed plan o\er a pronacted
period of time w ith no apparent
concern for those persons w ho
may rely on child support for
basic sustenance." stated Charles
Rogers.
Nis. Harris, in an inter' iew
With investigators, admitted de-
xising the kite scheme but con-
fessed "she didn't intend for it to
escalate like it did."
Assistant State Attorne\ Mel
Bessinger said he initial\ leaned
tow ard a prison term for the de-
fendant. but ultimately agreed to
probation.
"We could ha\e pushed harder
for jail but our priniar\ cocern

pass this moneN back." said Mr.
Bessinger. adding the rate \ ill be
$200 monthly.
All of the remaining balance
other than that owed to the in-
surance firm resulted from bank
fees. Both Country Federal
Credit Union and its sponsoring
bank Mercantile were involved.
Ms. Harris at one time worked
for Country Federal, and officials
believe that is how she acquired
knowledge of cash movement.
According to court records,
she currently works at the local
Winn-Dixie.
The prosecutor said he did not
know the reason for the CUNA
funds, nor was it contained in the
case file.


BY KELLEY LANNIGAN
Press Staff
It may be hard to believe, but
the hobby of scrapbooking has
surpassed golf in popularity in
the United States.
According to the online e-
source Wikipedia, one in four
households has someone play-
ing golf; one in three has some-
one scrapbooking.
Scrapbooking is big busi-
ness. When the popularity of
the hobby began to rise during
the 1990s, multi-level market-
ing promoted the craze to the
level of a multi-billion dollar
industry through specialty sup-
ply stores, magazines, classes,
conventions and now, infomer-
cials and CD Rom software.
The recently published book
The Scrapbook In American Life
is the first book about the his-
tory and practice of keeping a
scrapbook. Writer/director Wes
Thompsen, who views scrap-
booking as "America's fastest
growing pastime" has written
and directed a documentary
about the phenomenon. There
is even a national scrapbook
association.
"Scrappers" as the industry


Two faalities added to '06 total during the week


Baker Count 's eighth and'
ninth traffic fatalities of 2006 oc-
curred a week apart and include
an elderlI man \ ho struck an-
other vehicle head-on the morn-
ing of October 10 and a motor-
cyclist who failed to negotiate a
curve on October 3.
How ard L. Hunter, 80, of Glen
St. Mary died at Fraser Hospital
shortly after the 6:50 am accident
. this- week:on CR 23Ajust south'
of CR 23B north of Macclenny.


The Florida Highway Patrol
says Mr.' Hunter %\ as northbound
in a 1995 Chevrolet pickup that
veered into the southbound lane
and struck a 2003 Saturn driven
by Jennifer L. Lewis, 31, of Mac-
clenny.
Trooper H.J. Cichoski Jr. said
the pickup struck the left front of
the Saturn and Mr. Hunter likely
hit the collapsing steering wheel.
His air bag deployed. but he was-
not wearing a seat belt.


Ms. Lewis, who is seven
months pregnant, w\as strapped
in and her injuries were listed as:
minor. She \ as taken to Shands
Jackson\ ille as a precaution.
Her 3-\ ear-old son James w\ as
in a child restraint seat and was
not injured.
The late afternoon of October
3, Michael S. Martin died when,
his speeding motorcycle %went
out of control on Odis Yarbrough
Road just east of CR 125 and


struck a sign. -
Trooper K.M. Boarright Jr.
said Mr. Martin was westbound
at 5:25 "when the accident hap-
pened, and both he and the 2006
Suzuki came to rest on the north
shoulder. He was wearing a hel-
met.
The sharp curve on that stretch
has been the scene of multiple
accidents. one of them fatal, in
recent years.


calls people who practice the
hobby, frequently get together
for "crops" or scrapbooking
classes or sessions. They gather
at scrapbooking supply stores,
each other's homes and com-
munity centers. They attend
workshops, retreats and for the
very serious scrapper, national
and international conventions
in exotic locals such as New
Zealand.
Megacropolis, a scrapbook-
ing supply store in downtown
Macclenny, holds scrapbook-
ing classes and carries a large
variety of scrapbooking and
paper craft supplies. In the eve-
ning, it isn't uncommon to pass
the store's festively decorated
windows and see a class of
enthusiastic scrappers cropping
away at large tables. At these
gatherings, scrappers share tips
and ideas, develop new themes
and critique each other's page
designs.
For Barbara Blackshear and
her sister Carrie Dopson, both
Macclenny residents, scrap-
booking is a frequent family
activity that is turning into a
tradition. The sisters meet every
Friday evening at the poolhouse
in their mother's backyard


Friends and family gather at Joann Lambright's pool house for the popular Friday night crop session to work on their on-going
scrapbook projects. From left: Carrie Dopson, Joann Lambright, Connie Snell, Janet Harvin and Jennifer Hite.

where a scrapbooking 'station'
has been set up. Family mem-
bers and friends also passionate
about the hobby often show up
to work on their scrapbooks.


Ms. Blackshear has devoted
an entire book to a memorable
family visit to Niagara Falls.
Ms. Dopson creates scrapbooks
for each of her children and


documents their growth, activi-
ties and achievements on an on-
going basis.

Dear Editor:
Parents and grandparents who
do not have children attending
Macclenny Elementary School
are missing out on a special way
to start off a day.
Teachers open car doors for
children, say "Good Morning" to
them with a great big smile, then
add a "Have a great day" to the
person dropping off the child.
Thank you, teachers, for your
pleasant smiling faces!

Code board tables decision


on Sanderson fence


BY NANCY SZANTO
Press staff
The Baker County Code En-
forcement Board decided Octo-
ber 9 it needs more information
before deciding if a Sanderson
fence building business violates
zoning codes for a "home oc-.
cupation," and also if it perhaps.
is operating without proper li-
censes.
Several neighbors com-
plained in early July about noise
and obstruction of an easement
by Bennett Fencing. However,
testimony during the code board
hearing indicated a family feud
may also be part of the dispute.
Steve Keaton, the primary com-
plainant, is the former brother-
in-law of Susan Bennett, and
there was an altercation with
another relative leading to the
arrest of both men last week.
Mr. Keaton and another'
neighbor Marianne Kline filed
thle noise complaints. Both tes-
tified at the hearing that con-
struction of fencing goes on
until midnight some evenings.
Before the case is re-heard No-
vember 13, a county inspector
will check the noise emissions,
which attorney James Brolin
said may not exceed 55 decibels
at the property line.
A check will also be made
of whether owner Susan Ben-
nett has acquired proper busi-
ness licenses. The Baker County
'Commission several months
ago rejected her request to build
an office at the 7.5 acre site on
Sunshine Lane in Sanderson.
However, the construction pro-
cess may be permissible on the
agriculture zoned property..
In other actions October 9,
the code board gave Jeffrey Tay-
lor an unusually long 64 days to
finish cleaning up excess debris
around his property on CR 127
in Sanderson. The usual term is
30,days.
Mr. Taylor indicated friends
have taken advantage of him by
storing item.s,on his property. He.
said he's been working to clear
out several storage shelters. Cur-
rently, he has an 8x24 cubic yard


dumpster full, has been hauling
away truckloads, and still has "a
lot of stuff that can't go to the
dump" and has to be taken to a
commercial metal recycler.
Mr. Taylor will be on the De-
cember 12 agenda, and board
member Scott Anderson warned
him, "If it's not cleaned up by
then, there probably will not be
a further grace period."
Nancy Mann got the standard
30-day grace before fines begin
to accrue to finish cleaning up
debris around her rental prop-
erty on Boyce Road in Glen St.
Mary. She said tenants are re-
sponsible for the accumulation,
and expects it will be only a
couple of weeks before cleanup
is completed.
Jean Hoffman was not on the
agenda, but the board agreed
to hear her comments anyway..
However, she got angry and ex-
ited the meeting "for a smoke"
before stating her request for a
fine waiver or reduction. .; ",
Dave Newell. an acquaintance
of Ms. Hoffman, did make the
request, but was told he is not
a party to the original violation
that led to $415 in fines accrued
before she cleaned up her lots in
Yarborough Sportsman Park and
called for an inspection.
Ms. Hoffman said she did not
receive the original citations and
learned of the board action from
a friend. However, building de-
partment records indicate she
signed for at least one document
prior to the fine being levied.
Both Ms. Hoffman and Mr.
Newell got off track a bit she
said citations should instead be
issued against another neigh-
bor, while he asked for speed
limit signs in the park. He was*
referred to the sheriff's depart-
ment. .
In a final action, Virgil Johns
was given 10 days to finish
skirting lhis mobile home on
Mudlake Road or face fines. Mr.
Johns was not at the hearing, but
code enforcement officer Phil
Thomas said only the rear of the'
trailer remains unskirted.
Mr. Thomas also gave an up-

ditional count for attempting to

In an unrelated arrest, Clell
Potter, 32, of Glen St. Mary was
charged with loitering and tres-
passing on the property of Wil-
liam Adams off Okey Lane near
Glen St. Mary.
Deputy Mike Lagle made the
arrest the morning of October
5 after Mr. Potter attempted to
hide from him. The officer \\as

cious person report, and learned

nel met to address the county's
preparedness status for such an
event in the district's schools.
The main purpose of the
meeting, according to Ms.
Barton, was to insure schools
and the emergency response
entities were 'on the same page'
regarding emergency protocols
to deal with potential violence
situations.
The sheriff's department,
reported an increase over the last
week in calls from citizens high-
ly concerned about the county's
readiness to respond to potential
crisis situations in Baker County
schools.
"I've also received numerous
calls since the shootings at the
Amish school in Pennsylvania
from fathers, mothers, grandpar-
ents, aunts and uncles of chil-
dren," said Ms. Barton. "They
wanted assurance that we were
prepared and we are. It will be a
widespread team effort."
According to Ms. Barton and
Sheriff Dobson, response plans
are already formulated and in


place among the schools, local*
law enforcement, city and coun-
ty fire departments and related
emergency response services.
"I want the citizens to know
that we (the sheriff's depart-
ment) have been taking care of
business," Sheriff Dobson said.
"We aren't just sitting on our
hands about this."
Chief Gerald Gonzalez
described how response of local
law enforcement to crisis vio-
lence and hostage situations
regarding schools has changed.
The traditional approach of
securing the perimeters of a
school and waiting for a spe-
cial response team to arrive no
longer exists. All departments
in law enforcement are now
required to undergo training in
response to an act of a shooter
on a school campus.
"The tragedy at Columbine
changed everything," said Chief
Gonzalez. "Public demand now
requires immediate response.
Now, the first three deputies on
the scene must take action."
School administrators
described response drills in'place
in the schools and ho\\ teach-
ers and students are all familiar
with lock-down procedures that
go into effect in the event of a
threat. Even bus drivers have
been trained in how to deal with
assault situations that may take
place on a school bus.
"No one wants to think
about something like the Amish


talent!

Republicans receive rural county donation
Terry Kester, Executive Party Director and Catherine Jordan, state chairperson, both of the Florida Republican Par-
ty, present a check for $7,000 to Don Marshall (right), chairman of the Baker County Republican Party at the par-
ty's headquarters in Macclenny October 5. Baker County qualified for a matching three-to-one grant available to ru-
ral counties under the Rural County Initiative. Money is used by the recipient to help with local campaign expenses.

Investigating disappearance of


cash from fast food register tray


A case of missing cash at the
Macclenny Hardee's fast-food
restaurant was reported Octo-
ber 6, and will be assigned to an
investigator for the sheriff's de-
partment.
District manager Trudy Jacobs
said a 21-year-old counter em-
ployee violated company policy
by leaving a cash drawer open
in the front area of the store on
South 6th St. She said the drawer
came up $143 short.
The employee admitted leav-
ing the drawer unattended near
food racks for several minutes,
and that she noted the shortage
when she returned. She denied
taking the mone\ and told Dep-
;ut) James Parham III she would
submit to a voice stress analysis
later.
In other reported thefts, a


FBI probe

results in

porn arrest
A 20-year-old Macclenny
man remains in county jail this
week, charged with possession
of pornographic images on his
computer depicting sexual acts
by children under 12 years of
age.
Johnathan A. Ho6\ ell was ar-
rested October 4 at his apartment
on east Ohio on the basis of in-
formation gathered by federal
and state agencies. It is the first
known case of its kind in Baker
County.
Back in February, 2006, an
FBI agent manning a special task
force downloaded two images
transmitted by the defendant, ac-
cording to the arrest affidavit.
Using an Internet Provider
address, Agent Jeff Elliot of the
Oklahoma City office traced the
computer to Macclenny, and sub-
sequently learned via a subpoena
it was registered to Mr. Howell.
It passed the information on to
the Jacksonville FBI office.


$200 air conditioner and a televi-
sion valued at $100 were taken
from a residence off Pine Oaks
Circle in Macclenny sometime
during September.
Owner Gwendolyn Walls told
police a 44-year-old male who
had been living there was re-
sponsible, but he denied it later
when located by police.
The man did return a vehicle
that had been lent to him by Ms..
Walls.
Amie McCune of Sanderson
reported October 5 the theft of
a purse with $15, credit cards,
a prescription drug and identifi-
cation inside. The purse was in
a vehicle parked at CUz's One-
Stop in Sanderson at the tune.
A $300 metal door was pried
to gain entry to a residence un-
dergoing renovation off Griss-
holm St. in west Macclenny be-
tween September 20-October 4.
Power was turned off and a
component of an air conditioner
taken. The property is owned by


Todd Ferreira of Macclenny.
A surveillance video may
reveal the identity of a sandy-
haired white male who entered
the Exxon Store on US 90 and
Lowder in Macclenny the eve-
ning of Oct6ber 7 and ran out
with a 12-pack of beer.
A witness said he hopped into
a diesel Ford truck containing
another male.
GOP meeting
The monthly meeting of the
Baker County Republican Party
will begin at 7:00 pm on Thurs-
day, October 12 at the Republi-
can headquarters. 24 South Col-
lKge St. in NIacclenn. ,

A pair of local men were ar-
rested on third degree felony
charges for allegedly shooting
off Roman candles from a mov-
ing pickup truck the afternoon of
October 6.
Kenneth Gainey, 19, of Sand-
erson was at the wheel of the
pickup when it was stopped on
CR 23C north of Macclenny
that afternoon following a report
called into sheriff's dispatch. The
dark Toyota was earlier seen dis-
charging fireworks on Lowder in
west Macclenny.
Mr. Gainey, when questioned
by Deputy Brad Dougherty, ad-
mitted he and passenger Eric
Canaday, 23, of Macclenny had
been firing off the candles. They
said they were unaware one of
them caused a small brush fire
that was quickly extinguished.
They are charged with tossing
deadly missiles from the vehicle
and possessing explosives.
In other criminal, mischief
cases recently, a $1000 soft drink
machine belonging to Pepsi-Cola
was heavily damaged on South
,6th sometime between October
2-4. Several similar incidents
have occurred in the Macclenny
area the past month.
Mail was removed and scat-
tered from two roadside boxes
on Mulberry St. in Macclenny
on October 3.
Don Howell said mail was
scattered near the base of the
box, and Halloween decorations
vandalized.


Amy Coleman reported mail
taken from the box in front of her
residence to the east, and that the
pieces were ripped apart, includ-
ing one with a check inside.
It is a federal offense to tamper
with mail that has been placed in
a box.

re-runs at

"Oklahoma! Where the wind
comes sweepin'down the plain..."
The opening chorus of Rodg-
ers and Hammerstein's musical,
Oklahoma! is one of the most
memorable in musical theatre.
The BCHS ;drama department
will present the musical Thurs-
day and Saturday at 7:30 pm and
Sunday at 2 pm. All tickets are
$5.
Oklahoma has comedy, mem-
orable songs, action, big dance
numbers and enough going on to
make it fun for the whole fam-
ily.
The play is essentially a love
story that takes place in Oklaho-
ma Indian Territory in the early
years of the 20th, Centur). The
territory is poised to become a
state and its residents are excited
at the prospect.
But cowboy Curly McClain
is more interested in winning
the heart of pretty Laure\ Wil-
liams and keeping her out of the
clutches of the evil Jud Fr\. Jud
will stoop to anything, includ-
ing murder, to steal Laurey from
Curly.
The show is full of great
songs like, Oh, W7iat a Beautifid
'Aforning, Surrey \iith the Ft inge
on Top, People Will Say We're in
Love, I'm Just a Girl Who Can't
Say No, and the title,song,. Okla-

They put together the pageant


BY KELLEY LANNIGAN
Press Staff

Jennifer and David Ragan
of Macclenny first became
involved with the Baker County
Fair Queen Pageant six years
ago. The husband and wife team
who pastor the Destiny People
Worship Center in Macclenny
were asked to sing as part of the
entertainment. segment of the
pageant,
When the master of ceremo-
nies was unable to assume his
host duties at the last moment,
Mr. Ragan volunteered to step
in. With a background in drama,
coupled with his music per-
formance and public speaking
experience from pastoring a
church, it was easy to rise to the
occasion:
At the next year's pageant, the
master of ceremonies bowed out
due to illness. Again, Mr. Ragan
stepped in. Jennifer performed
and assisted where necessary.
Since that time, the Ragans have
been at the helm of the pageant.
Jennifer enjoys her role as
stage manager and ;mentoring
contestants. She shares advice
such as the need to wear the
same shoes during rehearsal as
for the pageant. Being familiar
with how the stage feels can
help contestants concentrate and
not be as nervous.
She coaches the girls on
walking the platform and find-
ing their points the designat-
ed places the contestants stop
and pause for the judges and
audience. During the pageant,
Jennifer can been seen manag-
ing the line of girls as they queue
up in the right order.
To ensure a smooth entry and
avoid an accidental stumble, she
stands behind each contestant,
gathering and guiding the elabo-
rate skirts of the gowns so they
clear the steps safely as they
begin their walk.
She is also responsible for.
ordering the sashes and crowns
and making sure each contestant
gets briefed about competing
prior to the pageant.
"It's a lot to remember and
coordinate," says Ms. Ragan,
"but I do so enjoy it."
After each girl introduces
herself and begins her walk, Mr.
Ragan reads her biography for
the audience which states such

things as age, grade, hobbies
and church involvement.
The girls walk to instrumental
background music while judges
score them on beauty, poise and
personality. After each contes-
tant w alks, the group is brought
back for. one final look. A queen
and one runner-up are then
selected. In the event of a tie,
the girls are asked questions and
scored on their answers.
The queen receives a crown
and a certificate for $50 from the
Baker County Fair Association.
Queen and runner-up also
receive trophies, sashes and
beautiful gift baskets of beauty
products.


The Ragans secure the
judges for the pageant. Three
are required and sometimes,
according to Mr. Ragan, it can
be challenging to find just the
right people.
The judges must be from, out
of town and not related to any of
the contestants. "We try to find
people who have some direct
experience related to the pro-
duction of a beauty pageant,"
said Mr. Ragan.
Twenty-six contestants par-
ticipated in the pageant this year
- the most the Ragans have seen
in their six-year involvement.
"We love doing this and the
pageant is getting better every
year" they said.

Golfers split

two matches
The Wildcat golf team split
in links action last week. It de-
feated Bishop Snyder, but fell to
Trinity Christian in a tri-match.
Trey Echols was the medalist
for the Cats with a 38.
On October 3, the Cats de-
feated Bradford County by 10
strokes. JJ Finley was the med-
alist for the match with a 38.
At districts on October 2, the
Cats finished 4th out of 10 teams
to wrap up the season at 16-
7. Trey Echols shot an 18 hole
79 while JJ Finley shot an 80
to advance both golfers to next
week's regional tournament.
The regional takes the top 3
golfers from each district along
with the top 3 teams.
"We came close to qualify-
ing as a team, and under the
conditions we have I thought the
kids did an admirable job," said
Coach John Staples. "There are
a lot of teams that would love to
be 16-7 so we're very happy to
have what we have. Obviously
with the kids not getting to prac-
tice every day, they have quite a
bit of talent."
JJ Finley finished out his se-
nior year in fine fashion. Finley
has been the Cats' top golfer
since his freshman year, and
Staples believes he is the best
golfer to have played at BCHS.
"I think he'll do well at region-
als," said Staples. "Our other
senior, Trevor Corbitt, improved
dramatically from last year to
the end of this year and he will
be sorely missed next year. It
was a great two years for me
personally to get to work with
these fine young men and I'm
gonna miss it next year when I
hang up the coaching."

Since students learn at dif-
ferent skill levels. Ms. Gilson
particularly likes the tact that
the curriculum provides variouss
versions of the same material.
so all students benefit from the
classroom experience as much
as possible.
In direct relation to the dis-
section, students are studying
.such topics as human blood cir-
culation and immunity.
lMs. Gilson sets up the class-
room in workstations with a dif-
ferent lesson at each station. In
small groups. the students rotate
from station to station, complet-
ing the lessons, all related to the
heart.
At one station, they may learn
how blood circulates around the
body, then attempt to success-
fully trace the path of circulation
on a diagram. They then move
to the next station, where they
master a list of related vocabu-
lary words.
"The way lessons are present-
ed.makes-learning the facts 6fun, :

"The students love it."
When asked what they
thought after examining the dis-
sected cow heart, students had a
variety of responses. ,
"I thought it was cool, said
one. "It smells like steak," said
another as she wrinkled her
nose. "Well, I guess so," a third
student chimed in, grinning.
"After all, it is a cow."

The area's two college foot-
ball teams are definitely going in
opposite directions. While Tim
Tebow University is 6-0 and de-
feated ninth ranked LSU 23-10,
the Seminoles (Lack of Offense
University) took it on the chin at
North Carolina State.
Florida is on the rise in the
rankings and in its quality of
play, while FSU, who has been
kept in most games with a pun-
ishing defense, could not stop
the Wolfpack in fashion on
Thursday night.
I watched parts of both games.
My production of Oklahoma is
in its run at the high school. so
I caught the start of the Gator
'game and the end of the Seni-
nole game. I saw enough from
both schools to dread what is
going to happen at the end of the
season when my Noles meet up
%with UF.
: The Seminoies have not look-
ed good all season. The Miami
win was a testament to ho\\
%well the' defense can play when
it wants to; the Troy game was
more the standard for the sea-
son. In both games, FSiU could
not find an offensive weapon
that could be counted on to come
through in the clutch.
SDrew Weatherford mnay have
a \ ariet. of weapons at his dis-
posal. but at the .moment, the
arsenal appears to be devoid of
ammunition. The running game
is abysmal and the passing game
spotty at best. All that can't be
laid at the feet of offensive coor-
dinator Jeff Bowden,. though he
has gotten well-deserved criti-
cism for an insipid display.
The Gators are in the envi-
able position of having both
an offense and a defense. They
handled LSU in the swamp,
something that isn't easy to do.
LSU's vaunted pass defense was
picked apart by Chris Leak, and
Tim Tebow added another di-
mension with has ability to run
the option.
The memorable play of the
game, was, of course, Tebow's
jump pass i free; throw) into the
endzone for a score. 'One of the
Gator radio announcers com-
mented that he hadn't "seen that
play since the playground at
Finley Elementary School."
The freshman from Nease
had a big game, mostly in short
yardage situations where he
could use his huge frame and
running back speed, or could
throw the ball. I still feel sorry
for Chris Leak, who is running
a 6-0 team but is overshadowed
by the second coming of Danny
Wuerffel.
The Gators don't have it easy,
that's for sure. You finish off
Alabama and you get LSU. You
finish off LSU and you travel
to an angry Auburn, which got
handed its hat and lost number
two ranking in a loss to Arkan-
sas (Soey pig, pig!)
One thing's for sure. If you
can cope with a schedule like
that, you deserve whatever plau-
dits you get.

was concerned about his team's
mental state after a devastating
14-6 loss at Jackson the v'eek

"\'We \"ere pretty low all

such hopes on the game and
thought we could win it."
Johns wasn't sure how his
team wv would respond when they
took the field against the Tigers
at Memorial Stadium. After the'
Wildcats fumbled the opening
kickoff and UCHS recovered
it, for a,score, it looks like his
fears were founded. A collec-
tive groan went through the
large crowd.

Were they in for another
heartbreak?
If anything, the quick six
point deficit was like an alarm
clock clanging in each and every
helmet on the Wildcat sideline.
Wake up and play football.
Nobody hit the snooze but-
ton:
Union County would not
find the endzone again as the
Wildcats cruised to a 42-6 victo-
ry. It was the kind of win that is
as much about rid-
ding themselves
of the demons of
frustration and
disappointment as
beating an oppo-
nent on the foot-
ball field.
The Cats played
5W. like men on a mis-
sion, particularly
in the first half,
where they rolled
up 36 unanswered
points. On offense.,
everything was
working, and
on defense the
Wildcat 11
slammed the cage
^ door on Tigers
| who looked more
like housecats.
W Nothing the
Tigers tried would
work this night,
and with the exception of the
opening fumble, the Wildcats
would play an almost flawless
half of football. The mood in the
stands changed from depression
to euphoria in a matter of min-
utes.
The Wildcat defense shut
down the Tigers on their first
offensive possession and the
Cats got the ball deep in UCHS
territory. Lucious Lee got the
first score of the game for Baker


less Tigers

with an exciting 28 yard scam-
per that put him well on his
way to a 100 yard night. Carlos
Holton ran it in for the two
point conversion and the Cats
took the lead to stay at 8-6.
The defense just out-muscled
Union County. They threw a
red iroadblock acro s the line of
scrinunage, stopping the inside
game. The Wildcat speed was
able to string out any sweeps
that the Tigers attempted, and
the defensive backs had good
coverage all night on the UC
receivers.
Offensively, the Cats took the
next drive to the four yard line,
and from there, the offensive
line blew the Tigers off the ball
and Chaz Johns bulled his way
into the endzone for the second
score. Holton's pass failed and
the Cats were up by a score of
14-6.
Darvin Ruise, who had
his best game of the season,
stopped yet another drive with,
an interception.
It looked as if the Wildcats'
drive was stopped in Tiger ter-
ritory, but on a third'and fifteen
play, Carlos Holton found Jamar
Farmer at the eight. Farmer
made the catch and put a move
on the defender and ran in for
the score. Freshman Harold
Moore ran in the two point con-
version.
Farmer was arguably the man
of the match. He got his second
of three touchdowns on a 35
yard run late in the first quar-
ter to put BCHS up 28-6. The
Union County faithful were
stunned in the visitors' seats as
they wondered what the next
three quarters might bring.
The Cats brought more of
the same on the defensive side
of the ball. Though the scor-
ing mercifully slowed down


in the second period. Holton
drove the Cats down field for
another score before intemris-
sion. Farmer capped it off with
an eighteen yard pass reception
and Johns added the two point
conversion.
It was an inspired half of
football;. BCHS -had 169- yards
rushing and 69 passing by
halftime. The fans were buzz-
ing about what the second hall
would bring.
The second half was a com-
plete reverse of the offensive
juggernaut of half one. It was
defensive in nature, with the
Wildcats applying body blow
after body blow to Union
County.
When the Tigers did man-
age to get close to the p3lon,
moving the ball to the Wildcat
5 yard line, the\ self-destructed
in a manner eeril\ reminis-
cent of a similar situation for
the Wildcats against Jackson a'
week earlier.
Darvin Ruise showed he
could provide offense as well as
defense, wrapping up the scor-
ing with a 30 yard touchdown
run. The conversion was no
good.
Union County packed up
and went home, thankful it
was only a 20 minute bus ride
to their gym. BCHS fans lin-
gered at the stadium longer than
usual, happ. to have a big win
to savor.
The Cats hope the win will
be a point to build on as they
travel to Suwannee County to
take on the Bulldogs next week.
The Wildcats will have to run
the table in their remaining dis-
trict games if they are to stand
a hairs-breadth of a chance of
making the playoffs this sea-
son.


Man of the Match
Jamar Farmer
Jamar is a 5'5" 140 lb. senior running back and defensive
back.
Jamar is a small back in the mold of the Jaguars' Maurice
Jones-Drew. He demonstrated that he could not only run the
ball, scoring on runs of 28 and 35 yards in the Wildcats' 42-6
win over Union County, but also that he has great hands. Jamar
pulled in a pass from Carlos Holton at the 8 yard line, put a
move on a defender that left him grasping at air and ran in for .
the score.
On the other side of the ball, Jamar has been a standout
defensive back. Coach Bobby Johns has been pleased at the
development of his pass defense, and Jamar Farmer is a major
cog in the defensive machine that stymied Union County quarter-
back Auston Roberts.

A look at a blooming local community


BY JARED WILKERSON
Real Estate Writer c,
The other day I received a call .
from an out of state buyer about
one of my listings. They were
going to be in town for the day 4,
and wanted me to take them on the
tour of Baker Count) with a fe '
stops off at some properties they N
had found in their online search.
Following a quick combina- '
tion of the surge of my Baker -
County pride and the "cha-ching" ..
sound of the
cash register
for my busi-
ness, I happily
.. ... accepted and
set showing
appointments
on several
properties that
fit their wants
Jared Wilkerson. Reator and needs.
One of the
properties they had selected "\as
a new\ construction home out in
Rolling Meadow s. a neighbor-
hood growing up out by the fair
grounds off of 23-B. Along with
several other planned de elop-
ments peppering the county as of
late. I'd been following the addi-
tion of these homes for some time
now. but I have to-admit.jhat this
was my first time actually taking
a look inside any of the homes in
that ne\' community.
Well. to make a long showing
day story short. the homes we looked:
at in Rolling Meadows b3 Drees were
surprisingly the best we toured for the
entire day. Not only were the buyers
impressed with the models currently
available, but so %was I. w which is actual-
ly saying quite a bit for a REALTOR,''
who routinely spends e{'er) Tuesday
morning attending Realtor/Builder
functions in Jacksonville's newest and
brightest housing developments.
In fact., I liked the homes so much
that right after I dropped my customers
back off at their car. I w'as on the phone
with the Drees Rolling Meadows mar-
ket manager. Mark Ray, to ask him
some more questions about the com-
munity. Many of you might know
Mark as he is one of our own raised
right here in NMacclenny.
It turned into me really getting into
what Drees Homes is doing with their
community development project out
there.
Mark gave me a tour of their model'
home and 4 of the homes that they
have built which are for sale. Mark said
that Drees likes to have a few homes
that customers can move into quickly
- should they be moving from out of
town. For the buyer that has time to
start from scratch, Drees is currently
offering 7 home designs to choose
from. Buyers choose a floor plan and
then have the opportunity to add a cor-


~'7


S. '. .. : .. .



The Drees model home is located in Rolling Meadows to


nucopia of additional choices to per-
sonalize their new home.
Each home had something new to'
offer from the next, and yet each fol-
lowed a certain level of housing insight
that, to put it quite frankly. w as a refresh-
ing look at home building compared to
the cookie cutter versions of what I'd
been getting used to in Jacksonville
subdivisions.
Here's some of my initial impres-
sions of what I noticed while IT as
touring these homes:
Drees Homes, much like any other
builder has certain strengths that are
verN evident in each of their home plans
and interior design. One of the things'
that Drees is especially good at is their
use of space. As w\e walked through the
variotis homes, Mark would tell me the
square footage of the living space. As
he sa\ the skeptical look on in\ face, he
would respond with a sense of "I know
what you're thinking" in his voice.
These homes really felt much larg-
er than ,their actual square footage. I
noticed that certain rooms had angles
that created open space, much different
from a standard, blocked off floor plan
and made the whole layout of the home
seem like .it was a completely different
level of house than what the price tag
and living space suggested.
There was space allowed in these
plans for specific rooms that you usual-
13y wouldn't see in a home of that price,


range; bonus rooms, formal sitting
areas, formal dining areas, huge master
bedroom suites, secondary bedrooms
that rival the size of master bedrooms
in other builders' homes, ten-foot plus
ceilings in man\ rooms...
When I finally\ fessed up and admit-
ted that I didn't really think the square
footage seemed right, Mark quoted
the Division Sales Managei for Drees
Homes, Linda lMoore. in saying that
"Drees Homes live a \\hole lot larger
thqn they really are."
That statement is, I think, the true
jumping off point for distinguishing
Drees homes from others I've grot wn
accustomed to. The floor plans all had a
certain liabilityt'" to them that showed
that the people, designing them really\
had a good handle on what a home is
supposed to pro\ ide.
Instead of just offering a ho-hum
house with all the expected rooms, I
noticed that the Drees homes in Rolling
Meadows had the little touches that
made all the difference for the people
who will actually live in them. For
example, all of the linen and clothing
closets are just a little bit deeper than
normal. I don't know" that it's inten-
tional, but they are. Also, the indoor
laundry rooms all had ample room fori
a folding table right across from the.
washer and dryer. Anyone wlho's ever
folded clothes on the living room sofa
knows just what I'mgetting at. The


the left when you pull into the subdivision.


living rooms had plenty of wall space '
to avoid those tough decisions as to'
"which wall would be oka. for acconm-
modating a superb entertainment center
while still lea\ ing room to not ha\e to
position couches right next to the TV to
make ever3 thing fit.You just don't see
that sort of life-planning in most build-
ers' house models.
They also have a few standard addi-
tions to the homes that are usually con-
sidered upgrades such as double tray


ceilings in the master bedroom.
full security systems installed
"-^ prior to close, and R-13 walls
for improved energy\ efficiency
Si Florida Code requires R-11 ).
After touring the available
homes and looking over some of
the plans for homes to be built
there in the future. I got an oppor-
tunity to speak "ith a couple of
the higher-ups in the Drees Homes
companN, Linda Moore and Jon
Roberts. Being two of the first
builder representatives I've had
a chance to speak with about the
future direction of Baker Count.y's
growth, I hit them both with some
pretty tough questions about their
plans right from the beginning.
Although I asked tough ques-
(ions about what all of this devel-
oping might do to Baker Counts
if not kept in check by solid plan-
ning, their answers actually ,'on
me over.
Here's a brief synopsis of the
potential problem I wanted them
II to address:
'i If too many developers are
allowed to come into our county
S, and build a huge number of spec
homes that are available for inime-
,, diate move-in, that could seriously
K hinder the residential resale market
(i.e., homeowners who are simply
looking to sell their homes and
mo\e on). This problem could be
especially worsened if the builders
themselves have a problem selling
homes and begin drastically lowering
prices and offering amazing incentive
packages, thus making normal sellers
homes look like a rip-off in compari-
son.
Linda Moore, of Drees Homes,
immediately admitted that this .was
a valid concern. "That's why Drees
has taken steps to ensure that Rolling
Meadows does not hinder the local

housing market by flooding it
with inventory. Drees is build-
ing a few models of our specific
floor plans for buyers to get an
idea of what is available and
then. will act conservatively in
p regard to constructing other
homes for sale."
Ms. Moore and Mr. Roberts
also recognized the true scope
of the majority of .existing
homes in Baker County as com-
pared to what Drees is offering,
admitting that Baker County
is primarily made up of homes
on an acre of land, as opposed
to the much smaller home sites
available in Rolling Meadows.
"As land prices increase, it
is more difficult to offer homes
that are affordable for our cus-
tomer. Our customers also tell
us that they now spend a great
deal of their time inside their
home so it is very important
to have a home that fits their
lifestyle," stated Ms. Moore.
"Therefore we have shifted our
focus more toward offering a
comprehensive, quality home
design in a quaint neighborhood
rather than a.home with an acre


lot that requires lots of time to
take care of."
She also stressed the impor-
tance of Drees Homes' future
plans for further developments
here in Baker County following
Rolling Meadows, stating that
they're not just "some builder or
developer who has come to slap
up a bunch of homes and leave
with a profit. We have a long
future here in Baker County."
Despite not wanting to hin-
der the residential resale market
here in Baker County, Drees is
offering some pretty competi-,
tive incentives to buyers who
purchase their homes.
Unlike some other builders,
Drees is not running week aftef
week "limited time" reduc-
tions on homes that are already
severely overpriced. All of their
homes seemed to be marked
with a decent price tag from the
get-go. What they are offering
is much more interesting. For
every dollar that a buyer puts
down as a deposit for a home,
Drees will match that dollar
amount (up to $10,000 max)
toward the buyers' purchasing
power for selecting additional
options in the home at no extra

tion, please call (904) 259-3354.
Pursuant to Section 286.0105, Florida Statutes, if any member of the public

record of the proceedings and for that purpose may need to ensure that he/she

cost to the buyer. It's called
"Drees' Double up Days."
For example, buyers can use
that money to upgrade their
kitchen by choosing an. upgrad-
ed designer package. It can be
used to deck the yard out with
extra landscaping options, etc.
Several of their customers have
chosen to use that extra money
from Drees to buy down their
interest rate with their preferred
lender, First Equity Mortgage,
thereby lowering their monthly
payment over the next 30 years.
Again, it's something practical
that Drees is putting into their
home buying experience.
Drees also will pay for their
buyers to visit an interior design
center (located in Jacksonville)
where professional decorators
will help them to select the
interior color schemes, plans,
optional flooring materials, and
design layouts that best suit
(heir own tastes.
Also, as is the norm with a
builder home, Drees will pay
all of a buyer's closing costs, so
long as the buyer qualifies and
purchases through Drees' pre-
ferred lender. Not a bad deal at
all.
If you are in the market for
a new construction home, it is
definitely worth the time to sit
down with Rolling Meadows
Market Manager, Mark Ray,
,to see if Drees Homes might
be able to get you just what
you're looking for. Mark can
be reached at (904) 259-1421 or
just stop by the model with the
Drees sign out front in Rolling
Meadows off CR-23B.
