St 2 die in US 90 crashes
Head-on accidents took the lives of two men on US 90
-;"- over the weekend, the first on Saturday just west of Glen
St. Mary and the second early the next morning in the Nas-
sau Strip between Macclenny and Baldwin.
In both cases, the fatalities were driving vehicles that
crossed the center line.
CaseyA. Prevatt, 27, of Glen died early on November 22
at Shands Jacksonville less than 24 hours after the 2001
Cadillac he was driving east near Nursery Blvd. collided
with a westbound 2006 Honda.
The driver of the second vehicle, Shawn C. Behr, 30, of
Macclenny, was flown from the scene to Shands Gaines-
ville with a serious leg injury. He was trapped inside the
Honda for a half hour following the accident at 8:43 am.

Sex with teenagers

lands two men in

prison for five years


Students' parade stocks pantry


Two Macclenny men were
sentenced the past two weeks to
five-year prison terms after en-
tering pleas to having sex with
underage girls.
Greg McKellum, 22,
got credit for 574 days
he's been in county jail
since his arrest in April,
2008 for accosting the
teens, one of whom was
12 years old at the time.
He pleaded no contest
on November 16 to ag-
gravated battery and
aggravated assault with
intent to commit a fel-
ony, downgraded from
his original charge of Greg
lewd and lascivious bat-
tery.
Mr. McKellum, ac-
cording to the court
record, committed the
acts on April 18 and 19
at a south Macclenny
residence.
Once out of prison,
he will be on drug of-
fender probation five
years. Judge James
Nilon also banned the
defendant from contact A
Anto
with children under 18
years of age and with
either of the victims.
This week in circuit
court, Antonio Robins
received a similar prison
term for lewd assault on
a 14-year-old female in
August, 2008 and eight
other drug charges.
Mr. Robins, 19, was
initially charged with
raping the girl at knife
point in the rear seat of
a vehicle parked in west Sani
Macclenny. As in the
case of Mr. McKellum, there
was evidence that the victims
consented to the sex acts, which

mitigates the charges somewhat
though the activity is still a seri-
ous felony.
Mr. Robins was out on bond
when he committed the drug
offenses, mostly sale of
crack cocaine to under-
cover buyers near Keller
Intermediate School
earlier this year.
His plea this week
included one count of
possessing cocaine, six
counts of possession
with intent to sell and a
single charge of sale of
counterfeit narcotics.
In another case in-
McKellum evolving a defendant
who had sex with a mi-
nor, Sanita Mobley of
Sanderson will serve a
year in county jail and
to years on sex offender
probation after pleading
no contest November
16 to reduced charges of
lewd and lascivious bat-
tery and child neglect.
Ms. Mobley, 30, was
arrested earlier this year
for lewd acts with a 15-
nio Robins year-old male member
of a family with whom
she had been living in
August. Judge Nilon
ordered the defendant
into psychiatric treat-
ment for a minimum of
two years and forbade
her to have contact
with children under 18.
She can see her own
children only with per-
mission of dependency
court.
Six other counts of
ta Mobley lewd and lascivious
battery were dropped as
part of the plea agreement.
Judge Nilon sentenced two
other defendants to state prison
on November 16:
Carol Finkle, 43, got three
years followed by a five-year
drug offender probation after
pleading no contest to traffick-
ing in hydrocodone in the Mac-
clenny area. The judge also im-
posed a $50,000 fine mandated
in cases where the quantity of
drugs warrants it.

The Samaritan food bank
received a typical delivery of
nonperishable foodstuffs the
morning of November 24, but
in a very unusual way.
About 30 students from the
high school's Career Academy
of Business Administration
pushed a handful of decorated
grocery carts from the school
grounds more than a quarter-
mile east on US 90 to the food
bank in what might be de-
scribed as a Thanksgiving food
drive parade.
Within minutes the students
had feverishly unloaded almost
1000 items into the small build-
ing with barely enough room for
one cart at a time.
A group of sophomores gath-
ered for a photo around one of
the more elaborate carts, which

resembled a giant turkey on
wheels and included a sign in
front that read, "Feed me!"
"Wait a second, let me put on

Sands said before attaching the
mouthpiece and smiling for the
camera.
Bekie Wilds was one of 19 se-
niors helping the Class of 2010


wrest from the juniors the title
for most food donated. She said
that besides the competitive
nature of the Thanksgiving food
drive, the best part was deco-
rating and presenting the carts
with her classmates.
"The junior class did a skit
and song when they presented
theirs," she said. "It was really


fun."
While the seniors will be
treated to a pizza party for do-
nating the winning total of 538
items, the real prize is some-
thing else.
"They really like the brag-
ging rights more than the pizza
party," said the academy's tech-

nology instructor Tammy Gibbs.
She's one of three teachers in
the loo-student academy of 9th
through 12th graders.
In all, the academy collected,
bought or borrowed 987 food do-
nations, topping the 700 canned
goods from last year. The food
bank also received a $120 cash
donation from Baker Guns and
Gold Pawn and a $25 gift card
donation from Food Lion.
"We encouraged students to
bring in things that families can
make meals from," Ms. Gibbs
said, adding they often used their
own money to bargain shop for
groceries.
The donations included typical
dessert ingredients like pumpkin
filling and brownie mix, but also
things like baby food and dog
food.
"Dog's are a part of the fam-
ily, too," said the to-year veteran
teacher.
Thanks to the students' quest
for victory and Baker Salvage's
discounted soup, the drive re-
sulted in 240 cans Campbell's
Chicken Noodle O's for the food
bank. The staple seemed to re-
place last year's run on Ramen
noodles, which were barred this
year.
"Stuff there [at Baker Salvage]
is really cheap," Ms. Gibbs said.
"They try to beat each other there
when they re-stock."
The academy's food drive last-
ed 23 days and ran in conjunc-
tion with district-wide drives this
month. Some donated items to
the food bank and others donated
directly to families in need.
Keller Intermediate collected
loll items. Ms. Herman's 5th
grade class led the way with
132 items, while Ms. Navarra's
students were the top donators
among 4th graders with 129
items.
Keller will also be collecting
items for soldier care packages
November 30 through December
7. For more information, contact
Amy Stalvey at 259-4325.
During its two week drive,
Macclennny Elementary col-
lected about 1300 food donations
with Ms. Crawley's first graders,
Ms. Wignall's 2nd graders, Ms.
Woods' 3rd graders and Ms.
Hawkins' ESE students collect-
ing the most items.
Westside Elementary amassed
1190 donations, which were used
in part to fill 17 bags of grocer-
ies for 17 different families. The
remaining food was given to the
food bank.

Two dead

in crashes
((From page 1
Investigating Trooper J. Smatt
said Mr. Behr was wearing a seat
belt; Mr. Prevatt, who had both
head and internal injuries, was
not. He was taken first to Fra-
ser Hospital because helicopters
were grounded by fog.
The impact demolished both
vehicles and left the fatality's Ca-
dillac facing east in that lane of
travel. Mr. Behr's Honda flipped
onto its right side and came to
rest in the westbound ditch.
Trooper Smatt said both ve-
hicles struck on the left front. Ac-
cording to his report, blood tests
on Mr. Prevatt will determine if
alcohol played a role in the ac-
cident.
He was the 13th person to die
on Baker County roads this year.
Andrew J. Prater, 24, of
Jacksonville died at the scene just
after 3:oo the following morning
when his eastbound 1999 Dodge
slammed into a tractor trailer
heading in the opposite direction
about two miles west of Baldwin.
The 1996 Kenworth tractor-
trailer was driven by Roel Ji-
menez, 29, of Edinburg, Texas,
who was treated at Fraser Hospi-
tal for undisclosed injuries.
Lt. Bill Leeper, spokesman
for the Florida Highway Patrol's
troop headquarters in Jackson-


ville, said early this week an in-
vestigation continues into why
Mr. Prater's vehicle drifted over
the center line.
Both accidents happened on
two-lane stretches of US 90.

Memories of holiday crafting


THE BACK

PORCH
Kelley Lannigan
Thanksgiving was always
my favorite holiday when I was
growing up. I loved the family
meal and all the preparation that
went into it.
In elementary school we made
lots of crafts with a Thanksgiving
theme. I still see a few of those
same crafts made by school kids
today. Few things are closer to
a parent's heart than holiday
decorations lovingly crafted by
careful, determined little fingers
and displayed proudly on the
kitchen refrigerator door.
I remember large rolls of
white butcher paper in our class-
room and how the teacher tore
off sheets for each child. With a
large black crayon, we made trac-
ings of our hands with the fingers
spread apart.
On the thumb, we drew an eye,
a beak, and waddles. The palm
area became the turkey's body
and the remaining four fingers
were feathers. After adding on a
pair of stick legs, the turkey was

pine trees

best turkeys.
For the
turkey's feathers,
construction paper
strips in different colors were cut.
These paper feathers were stuck
between the scales at the fat end
of the cone to create a fan.
All the colors made the turkey
look more like the NBC television
peacock from the 1970s, but it

nucopia fruit arrangements.
The annual day of giving

ritual.cone turkeys
adorned the
centerpiece ofthe
table, sat on window
sills and accented cor-
nucopia fruit arrangements.
The annual day of giving
thanks would have not been
the same without this pleasant
ritual.
Of course, I eventually be-
came an adult and the turkey


making ceased. One day, after
many years, I realized I missed
the paper and pine cone turkeys.
I wanted to see them at the table
again. By then, I had three young
nieces. The day before Thanks-
giving, I invited them over for an
afternoon turkey-making bash.
It went fabulously. First we
went on a pine cone hunting ex-
pedition. That fulfilled, out came
the craft supplies. Soon the table
was littered with fragments of
paper, scissors, markers, glue,
cardboard, some yarn and rolly
polly eyes. I think I had more fun
than the kids.
I was delighted to see so
many turkey drawings created by
students at Westside Elementary
when I took part in their annual
Thanksgiving Feast on Novem-
ber 23. The drawings lined the
corridors between classrooms,
each as unique as the child who
produced it. I've included one
of those drawings with this col-
umn.
Christmas is just around the
corner and they say the aver-
age person gains seven pounds
at that time. Now, there's some
food for thought, so to speak. So,
Happy Thanksgiving and don't
eat too much.


Bring the cheer, not rudeness please


JESSICA PREVATT
advertising@bakercountypress.com
I love watching my oldest child
perform for school functions and
I enjoy shopping on Black Friday.
Both pastimes have one thing in
common crowds. I consider
myself to be very easy going, not
easily riled. But there are some
things that do tend to push my
buttons.
Things like rude people.
I attended a play at the high
school auditorium put on by
the second grade classes from
Westside. I didn't get to see the
whole thing since I had to re-
turn to work, but what I saw
and heard was great. The sound
system went on the fritz but the
kids pulled through and did their
best.
What annoyed me to no end
was the audience. I had to stand
in the doorway to catch a glimpse
of my child because the audi-
torium was packed. It's a great
testament to the people of Baker
County coming out to support
their kids, but the amount of
complaining and talking was hor-
rible. It's almost as bad as going
to a BCHS graduation ceremony.
The adults were talking worse
than the kids and didn't seem to
understand that need to be ex-
tra quiet since the microphones
weren't working. You'd think
these folks would understand
something as basic as that.
Then the rude comments
from bystanders topped off the
evening. Did people not expect
the room to be packed consider-
ing the number of children per-
forming and the family members
wanting to watch? If all you can


do is gripe about the lack of seat-
ing, horrible sound system and
having to show up, then I suggest
you stay at home. No one wants
to listen to you talk to yourself
while trying to hear the kids' lines
and songs.
Black Friday shopping crowds
can be just as annoying. It is ex-
pected if you're going shopping at
"o dark-thirty" on the Friday af-
ter Thanksgiving, there are going
to be crowds of people competing
for the same items.
What kills me are the people
who act surprised at how many
people are there, skip lines, and
pick fights to save $75 on a TV. It
can be amusing to watch families
who have a plan, walk in the door
and then split like a well-oiled
machine. I imagine they spend
hours after dinner on Thanks-
giving planning their attack. My
philosophy is simple: if I find
something I knew would be on
sale and can get it great. If not,
I probably didn't need it anyway.
I avoid places like Walmart on
Black Friday, at least until after
10:oo am. I have a plan that has
worked well for me over the last
five years, and no, I'm not shar-
ing it. I never go in search of the
door buster deals. I would rather
pay the extra than get caught up
in a fiasco like that.
I do go to see what other great
deals I can find. Truth be told, I
don't do much Christmas shop-
ping for others. It's more about
things I might need around the
house or some new clothes at a
great price. If I find a Christmas
gift, I consider myself lucky that
for once I might get some shop-
ping done before Christmas Eve.
That's a whole other column.


The point is, people need to
lighten up it's the holidays.
What happened to good cheer?
Also, if you can't do or say some-
thing nice, stay home. Nobody
else wants to listen to you mutter
or be ugly. If you don't want to
be there, nobody else wants you
there either. If you want to get


that door buster item, then get up
early enough to be at the front of
the line. Don't show up five min-
utes before the store opens and
attempt to cut off 150 people by
jumping line. It's not only rude,
but dangerous.
Have a great Thanksgiving
and maybe I'll see you Friday!


Giving thanks for


both pithy, serious


MY SIDE OF

THE MATTER
ROBERT GERARD

Thanksgiving is upon us and
I'm amazed the year has zipped
by at such a pace. It seems like
only yesterday I was putting to-
gether my last Thanksgiving col-
umn.
When it comes to Thanksgiv-
ing columns I'm always a little
torn. Should I write a column
that is essentially serious and
heartfelt or should I go with hu-
mor? My wife always nudges me
toward the heartfelt, while I tend
to lean toward the humor end of
the spectrum.
This time around I'll try to
juggle both those sentiments in
one column. We'll see how suc-
cessful that is.
I am thankful that:
V I am a Wildcat football fan.
The Cats have produced a lot of
drama and excitement on Fri-
day nights this fall, and I'm just
thrilled that we have another
weekend on the gridiron.
V I am thankful I don't own
a "slanket," those things with
sleeves also known as a "snug-
gies." I look goofy enough without
wrapping myself in one of those
things. I have to ask myself who
would actually want one? Do they
come with a little press-on tattoo
that says, "Dork?" If they don't,
they should.
V I am thankful I am not in
politics. No matter if you are a
Republican or Democrat, the idea


of public service has sadly come
to be a negative one. I don't want
the cold eye of public scrutiny
staring at me. It reminds me of
that big red eye from the Lord of
the Rings staring out from above.
Time was that public service was
praiseworthy. Not anymore; poli-
ticians are subject to too much
ridicule.
V I am thankful Richard Heene
is not my dad. As much as I loath
Jon and Kate, that Heene guy is
one serious whack job. He is the
father who concocted the "bal-
loon boy" hoax in hopes that he'd
get a reality television show.
V I'm thankful every year at
least one turkey doesn't make it
on the holiday table. The Presi-
dent makes a big deal of pardon-
ing a turkey on the lawn of the
White House each year. Little
known fact: during the Bush ad-
ministration, hours after the tur-
key was pardoned, Vice President
Dick Cheney had the CIA whisk it
off to some secret prison where
it was ruthlessly interrogated to
discover what it had done to win
the pardon.
"Who did you bribe?"
"Gobble."
"What do you mean by that? Is
that some kind of Middle Eastern
language? Are you a foreign tur-
key? Talk or we'll waterboard you
again."
When questioned about it by
Congress, Cheney quipped, "You
just can't be too careful. Did you
know the turkey was almost the
national bird?"
V Speaking of turkeys, I am
thankful for Thanksgiving dinner.
My wife does it up right; she can
cook a turkey and all the fixings.
Of course, I always wonder as I
sit stupefied at the Thanksgiving
table why it is we don't have this
stuff any other time during the
year?
V I am thankful for the Macy's
Thanksgiving Day Parade. I don't
like parades particularly but I
love this one. To see Bart Simp-
son swooping over the gray skies
of New York City just makes my
day. "Cowabunga, dude."
V I am thankful for the Pil-
grims. Nah, not for anything that
they did or for Plymouth Rock
or buckled shoes. I'm thankful
that they just were Pilgrims. If
it weren't for the Pilgrims, mil-
lions of elementary school kids
wouldn't have Thanksgiving
pageants or get to color turkeys
purple and pink. I remember
being in a Thanksgiving pageant
at Central Elementary School in
Lake City. I was a Pilgrim and
one of the best darned 8-year-old
Pilgrims you ever saw, too. I bet
people are still talking about the
way I raised my hand in salute
and said, "How, Squanto?" So
many layers of meaning there.
V I am thankful I live where I
do.
V I am thankful for the troops
who are on the sharp end so that
we can sit at home and celebrate.
V I am really thankful for the
people who share my life my
family and friends. They make
life worth living.

Mining denial could cost big bucks


The DuPont
appeal denied O n
November 16
by county com- l
missioners may I
lead to litigation Joel Ad
against Baker
County, and with
tight budgets for the foresee-
able future, avoiding legal bills
should've weighed heavier on the
board's decision.
I'm no attorney, but after
reading DuPont's appeal, the
industrial behemoth, I believe,
has a pretty good case should it
choose to proceed in court.
DuPont was appealing the
Land Planning Agency's stipu-
lation that it reverse its current
mining plan and dig next year
near the interstate, instead of
farther south and adjacent to the
existing operation southeast of
CR 228 South.


P



dd


1 n While meant
oint to spur growth
and jobs sooner
pig rather than
rint L later, the condi-
ngton tion has at best
ington only one wobbly
leg to stand on.
That defense is simply that de-
velopment around the interstate
is in the best interest of Baker
County.
My problem is that sure, jobs
and development are good for
the tax base and the local econ-
omy; but is getting those things
six years from now instead of to
years from now really worth the
cost of litigation?
Maybe, if such development
was certain to occur. But it's not.
There's a never-ending list of
things that could happen to alter,
or even completely derail, devel-
opment of the land in question


- LaBuena Farms' roughly looo
acres south of I-io.
Take the massive Cedar Creek
project for instance. Two years
ago it was being framed as the
development that would change
everything in Baker County the
population, the businesses, the
infrastructure; you name it.
Today, Cedar Creek is on life
support, and most of its 3000
acres are in foreclosure. Not one
road, sidewalk or home has been
built.
Even if the court does side
with the county commission and
DuPont begins mining adjacent
to the interstate in the Spring,
DuPont's site manager David
Podmeyer said the tract would
take four years to mine, plus an-
other two years for reclamation
work that follows.
He believes that LaBuena
Farms and Jackson-Shaw, the


industrial park developer plan-
ning a project north of I-io with a
contract to purchase the LaBuena
property once its unencumbered,
are in a race with others to bring
new growth, and the jobs and
homes that come with it, to un-
developed areas in the region.
Fortunately for the county,
nobody likes paying attorneys
fees, not even the deep pockets
at DuPont. Mr. Podmeyer said
the company is still determining
which route to take through
the courts or around them.
But if push comes to shove,
the county might be wiser to roll
over and play dead.

Cedar Creek lands CITY OF MACCLENNY Court...

nowin foreclosure Man with drug past hired
John Bryant, 66, of S


Auction set for Dec. 3

The former owner of roughly 2200 acres on which much of the
Cedar Creek development was planned is seeking foreclosure after a
number of missed payments by Adrian Development and its investor,
Oracle Partners.
Davis & Davis of Macclenny filed its foreclosure notice November
4 naming Adrian Development, Metro Bank of Dade County and the
Jacksonville planning firm Prosser Hallock as defendants.
The land is set for auction December 3 at the county courthouse,
more than four years after it was purchased.
"The wheels came off the wagon about September 2008," said Ricky
Davis of Davis & Davis, declining to comment on how much was still
owed on the property.
Adrian Development also owes about $143,000 in unpaid property
taxes on its holdings in Baker County, even after the tax collector's of-
fice received a payment from Metro Bank late last month.
Adrian's financial troubles began to surface in 2007, when the Coral
Gables, Fla. developer fell behind on payments to creditors. That led
Oracle into litigation with Adrian regarding the terms of the parties'
profit-sharing agreement. Oracle had given Adrian $25 million in Jan-
uary 2007 in return for a share of the developers' profits.
The litigation resulted in Oracle taking over management of the Ce-
dar Creek project, and the New York investment firm hired an Atlanta-
based real estate consultant, Minerva USA, to act as its agent.
Mr. Davis said his last contact with either company was two months
ago.
"I really don't know what's going to happen," he said. "We were try-
ing to work with them, but we thought they were being a little unrea-
sonable."
While ownership of the property may change hands yet again, the
development order granted by the Baker County Commission for Cedar
Creek remains valid.
It permits 6000 residential units and a golf course, plus commercial,
retail and office space in return for about $65 million in mitigation pay-
ments for new roads, schools, public safety and health care facilities
over the project's 15-year build out.
Adrian defaulted on that agreement by failing to make more than
$500,000 in initial payments to the county in mid-February.
Minerva's Development Director Stacy Patton did not return calls or
e-mails requesting comment on the fate of the Cedar Creek project.

While most employers steer
clear of hiring workers with
criminal histories, Macclenny
City Manager Gerald Dopson is
willing to make exceptions.
"I believe in my heart if some-
body's turned their life around,
then we can give them an oppor-
tunity," he said. "They can use it
to go forward in their lives."
The city hired this month
someone with a criminal history
that included disorderly intoxi-
cation and drug possession. He
began November 16 filling in as a
back-up on the city garbage truck
and helping with landscaping du-
ties like watering.
Though Mr. Dopson has hired
employees with checkered pasts
before, he approached the city
commission about doing so again
during the board's November to
meeting. He told commission
members about federally-funded
fidelity bonds available for hiring
at-risk employees.
The board had no objection.
"We all make mistakes," said
Mayor Gary Dopson. "If you're
convinced they've overcome their
problems, I'm okay."
Commissioner Vernon Ben-
nett agreed saying, "Have at it. I
trust your judgement."
The at-risk employee is bond-
ed for the first six months on the
job at $5000.
The Federal Bonding Program
from the US Department of La-
bor provides the bonds through
Travelers Casualty and Surety
Company of America at no charge
to the employer or employee.
SM- ------


Bonded amounts can reach as
high as $500,000 under certain
circumstances and insure against
losses from theft, fraud or other
dishonest actions of employees.
Any at-risk employees are eli-
gible for bonding services under
the program, including those
with poor credit, lack of work
history or dishonorable military
discharges.
The program is administered
locally by Worksource and has
been operating since 1966.
"Part of our job is to place
people that are harder to place,"
said Worksource spokeswoman
Candace Moody. "It's really hard
for people with a record to find
work or employers willing to give
them a second chance."
Mr. Dopson admits offering
someone a second chance doesn't
always pay off, but it has in the
past.
"I had one [employee] that
was an alcoholic around here for
20 years," he said. "I told him if
he stayed clean for a year and
I would know that I'd give him
the opportunity. It was kind of an
incentive. And a year later, just
looking at him I could tell he got
turned around. He's been one of
my best employees."
But why take a chance on
someone with a criminal history
when there's so many people
these days looking for work?
"I'm against drugs and crime
as strong as anybody else, but if
somebody deserves an opportu-
nity and has endeavored to turn
their life around, we should give
them a chance," said Mr. Dopson,
adding that a lack of past prob-
lems isn't any guarantee some-
one will be a good employee.

Thursday, November 26, 2009


Two persons were arrested last week on mul-
tiple charges including the evening burglary of a
Macclenny business on South 6th St. owned by the
brother of one of the suspects.
Tony Gray, 34, of Glen St. Mary and Heather
McAlister, 24, of Raiford were stopped in a Chev-
rolet Cavalier the night of November 17 not long
after police were called to Doug Klotz Appraisal to
investigate a burglary during which $100 in a bank
bag was taken.
Mr. Klotz told Deputy Matt Riegel he suspected
Mr. Gray's involvement because of an earlier ar-
gument, and indicated the suspect may be riding
around in the area with girlfriend Ms. McAlister in
her Cavalier.
The officer and Investigator Michael Hauge spot-
ted the vehicle with the suspects inside later that
evening, and a subsequent search turned up a ham-
mer and jacket they believe were used to smash the
glass on the front office door to gain entry.
The officers also found a plastic bag containing
35 doses of a muscle relaxer for which Ms. McAlister
did not have a prescription. She also had cash on her


person that she originally said she obtained from her
mother but police later linked to the burglary.
The girlfriend was interviewed twice and said she
drove Mr. Gray to the scene but did not enter the
appraisal office, and the next day during a second
session changed her story on the money she had in
her possession.
Charges against the pair include burglary, pos-
session of burglary tools, felony drug possession,
criminal mischief and petty theft.
In other reports, Phil Crews of eXtreme Outdoors
on US 90 in Macclenny reported a handgun valued
at $482 was apparently taken from the store during
the afternoon or evening of November 13.
Mr. Crews told Deputy Earl Lord he showed the
firearm to a customer about 4:00 and placed it back
in a case. Another employee noted it was gone about
three hours later.
Someone broke out an office window at the First
Baptist Church of Macclenny overnight November
20 and police found evidence it had been pried.
Nothing was reported taken.

Flooding closes centers
The Community Action Agency [CAA] offices as well as those of the Community
Behavioral Services Center on Lowder Street were flooded November 17, report-
edly due to plumbing problems in a rest room. CAAtemporarily moved operations
into St. James Episcopal Church. Damage was confined mostly to the flooring and
CAA Director Alterial Baker said she expected returning to the Lowder Street loca-
tion within a few days. They remained at the church on November 24.


Beats half-brother


outside apartment


A Macclenny man is charged
with felony battery for severely
beating his half-brother in a fight
behind their apartment complex
late on November 19.
Deputy Larry Clark said he
had to fire twice with his taser
gun before subduing Jason
Smith, 26, after the suspect at-
tempted to run from him while
being handcuffed following the
11:30 incident on East Ohio in
the north city.
The officer said he came onto
the scene to witness Mr. Smith
kicking and punching Marvin
Wasdin, 20, in the head, injuries
serious enough to warrant admis-
sion to Shands Jacksonville. Mr.
Wasdin has since been released.
Deputy Clark said that after
Mr. Smith dragged his half-
brother to his feet he released
him and the victim fell backwards
onto his back.
Mr. Wasdin immediately be-
gan snoring, a sign the deputy
noted sometimes indicates seri-
ous injury.
Mr. Smith was booked at
county jail for domestic battery
causing great bodily harm and
resisting him without violence.
In other recent cases involving
personal attacks:
Randal Miller, 43, was ar-
rested for aggravated assault
with a knife following an alterca-
tion with another man in front of
his apartment on Taber Blvd. in
Glen St. Mary.
In what appears to be an inci-
dent fueled by "road rage," Mr.
Miller allegedly pulled the knife
and threatened Corey Combs,
22, also of Glen, the afternoon of
November 17.
Both parties told varying sto-
ries to Deputy Tony Norman on
the series of events that started
when Mr. Combs attempted to
pass Mr. Miller while both were
northbound on Taber moments
before.
Police arrested Christopher
Bellflower, 36, of Macclenny the
evening of November 22 outside
the Walmart Supercenter on SR
228 for an attack on store em-
ployee William Vaughan, 23, also
of Macclenny.
Deputy Koty Crews said he
stopped the suspect after noting
his vehicle matched the descrip-


tion given over the radio as Mr.
Bellflower left the store.
Two Walmart employees
backed up Mr. Vaughan's ver-
sion of events as he alleged he
was approached by the suspect
and struck numerous times with
a closed fist before Mr. Bellflower
returned to his pickup, then re-
exited and struck the victim sev-
eral more times.
Deputy Crews was told the
attack was over alleged threats
telephoned to Mr. Bellflower.
Michael Washington, 18, of
Macclenny reported to police he
was beaten by three men who
stopped a pickup truck near
where he was walking at US 90
and 6th St. early on November
20.
The victim told Deputy Brad
Dougherty the men used a racial
epithet before knocking him to
the ground where he was kicked
and repeatedly struck.
Mr. Washington is black and
said his assailants were white. He
was able to describe one of them
as 25 years old with short dark
hair, a moustache and goatee.
The incident took place at 3:50
am, and Deputy Dougherty said
the victim had a bloody shirt and
multiple abrasions.
A criminal complaint for
domestic violence was filed No-
vember 19 against Billiejo Irish,
46, for an alleged attack on live-
in girlfriend Sherry Harnage, 24,
at their residence off Lila Harvey
Rd. near Sanderson.
Ms. Harnage told Deputy
Shawn Bishara the boyfriend
threw a purse that struck her in
the face during an argument the
evening of November 19. She
said she retaliated by striking
Mr. Irish with a chalk board and
lamp.
The officer notified the De-
partment of Children and Fami-
lies because the couple's 2-year-
old son witnessed the incident.
Meggy Castleberry, 22, was
arrested for accosting Ashley
Perry, 30, outside Ronie's Foods
in Glen St. Mary the morning of
November 21.
Deputy Earl Lord made the
arrest after witnessing the attack
from nearby where he was direct-
ing traffic following a fatal car ac-
cident just west of there.

Criminal complaints for bur-
glary and grand theft were filed
November 18 against two males,
ages 12 and 13, for stealing nearly
$1500 worth of property from
a residence on North 1st St. in
Macclenny.
The boys, who were named by
victim Margaret McDonald be-
cause they had been to the resi-
dence to visit her son, admitted
to Deputy Larry Clark in separate
interviews they took the prop-
erty after entering the residence
through a side door. The report
indicates multiple entries.
The suspects denied taking a
game system and game valued
at $270, but admitted they stole
two skateboards, collector cards,
a wallet and $5 cash, an iPod and
other electronic game items.
In other recent reports:
A cabin on Ocean Pond in the
west county was entered some-
time between mid-May and No-
vember 19 when owner Michael
Ritman of Louisville, KY reported
the theft of $700 in property.
Deputy Patrick McGauley
said a door on the north side of
the structure was pried open
and sections of the interior ran-
sacked. Missing items included a
television, stereo and liquor.
Robert Lauramore of Sand-
erson said his gun cabinet was
looted between November 15-19
of a shotgun, pellet gun with a
crossbow attachment and three
wedding rings. The cabinet was
in his residence off CR 127.
Mr. Lauramore told Deputy
Jeff Dawson a key to the cabinet


was taken from his vehicle.
Amy Calvert reported two
cell phones, a pressure cooker
and designer bag missing from
her residence on E. Mclver St. in
Macclenny when she returned to
it on November 21. Ms. Calvert,
who told Deputy Johnny Hodges
she had been in the Duval County
jail six months, suspects an ex-
boyfriend.
She valued the property at
$1100.
Owner Rebecca Torgerson
named ex-daughter-in-law Ma-
ria Torgerson of Jacksonville as
the person who entered her resi-
dence off Calvary Lane near Glen
St. Mary on October 30 and took
toys and children's clothing val-
ued at $530.
The owner told Deputy Bran-
don Kiser that Karin Shipes was
at the residence that day and
saw the suspect inside taking the
items. The incident was reported
November 19 by the elder Ms.
Torgerson, who lives in Las Ve-
gas.
Stanford Harvey told police


on November 16 a CB radio and
two nets were removed from a
boat parked in the rear of his
residence on South 6th St. in
Macclenny.
The property was valued at
$240.

Girlfriend arrested after


earlier warning by deputy


Above, crews from contractor V.E. Whitehurst and Sons of Williston, Fla. advance paving along the northbound

of Jacksonville late last week at the entrance to the Hills of Glen subdivision off Part Street, also north of Glen.

Paving


projects

ongoing


near Glen

JOEL ADDINGTON
NEWS EDITOR
reporter@bakercountypress.com
After almost two years of dis-
cussion, the dirt roads in the Hills
of Glen north of Glen St. Mary
were overlaid with fresh asphalt
last week, with finishing touches
being completed this week.
The roughly 1.5-mile paving
project included the neighbor-
hood's main looping road, Con-
federate Drive, and the dead-end
street in the center, Confederate
Lane both north of Park Street
east of CR 125.
Like many living there, 14-year
resident Darlene Lewis is pleased
with the results.
"I'm tickled to death," she
said. "Maybe it will cut down on
the kids on four-wheelers."
The hassle of dirty vehicles
and washed-out roads may be
over, but the upgrades also mean
an easier haul for school bus driv-
ers.
When her children were still
in school, Ms. Lewis had to drop
them at the entrance to the sub-
division on Park Street to catch
the bus.
"If I'm going that far I might
as well take them all the way to
school," she said. "It was re-
ally bad. There were times when
you'd have half your tire depth in
a gully across the road."
Also excited about the road
upgrade was Mary Howell, who
appreciates the reduction in
wear-and-tear on her family's
vehicles from the rough terrain.
"Hopefully it will save the
county some money in the long
run. They won't be working out
here as much," said the 23-year
resident. "It will be better for the
residents overall."
Mike Anderson moved to
the neighborhood in 2002 and
said he was, "ecstatic over now
having a paved road after more
than seven years of dust bowl
conditions during dry spells and
muddy, pot-hole-filled obstacle
courses during and several days
after heavy rains hit."
He rides a motorcycle, and
was also happy that the new road
will likely increase the value of
his property.
"I know the county com-
mission has faced some tough
budgetary decisions these past
couple of years, and I'm grateful
that they kept the Hills of Glen
road improvement project in the
budget," said Mr. Anderson.
The smooth surface, however,
could also bring with it faster traf-
fic, which concerns Ms. Lewis, an
avid walker.
"Some people are very courte-
ous and some will just about run
you over," she said.
Monitoring by law enforce-
ment and residents might help,
but regardless, Ms. Howell said
it's worth the trouble to live on a
paved road.
"Speeding will definitely be a
problem, but we can stay on top
of it and call if we need any help,"
she said.
APAC-Southeast Inc. is the
paving contractor for the roughly
$221,000 project, which was
funded through local gas taxes.
The company also won a $1.04
million paving job to resurface


A number of persons were jailed the past week
for disorderly intoxication, including Beverly Johns,
50, of Glen St. Mary, who had been warned by po-
lice to cease arguing with her boyfriend the night of
November 20.
The boyfriend, Charles Wright, told Deputy Matt
Hilliard he returned to the residence off Wright's
Lane about 11:oo to find that Ms. Johns had ran-
sacked it. The officer's report notes the girlfriend
screamed and cursed at him when he tried to calm
her and entice her to leave because Mr. Wright
feared she would harm him.
Other arrests:
A similar charge was made against Michael Mc-
Neill, 21, of Macclenny after Deputy Daniel Nichols
found him in the middle of the roadway near US 90
and E. Boulevard about 11:30 the night of November
19.
The officer said he awakened occupants of two
residences on E. Ohio St. when attempting to take
Mr. McNeill home. He lived at neither address.
Michael Bailey, 37, was arrested the evening of
November 22 at his address off Clarence Dobbs Rd.
near Sanderson after he refused to return a pickup
belonging to nephew Cleveland Mann. He then


cursed Deputy Kevin Jenkins and Mr. Mann before
his arrest for disorderly conduct.
Deputy Hilliard arrested Rex Sanders, 46, of
Macclenny following a disturbance on North 6th St.
about 10:30 the same evening.
The officer said Mr. Sanders was being unruly
and ordering others off a porch and into the resi-
dence, and at one point advanced toward him in a
threatening manner.
Christopher Graves, 38, of Sanderson was jailed
for driving on a license with seven prior suspensions
following an argument with his wife at the Macedo-
nia Grocery where she was employed.
Deputy Earl Lord said he responded to a distur-
bance call about 9:30 the night of November 20, and
took evasive action near the store when Mr. Graves
exited and his vehicle headed toward the officer's
patrol car.
The girlfriend, Rebecca Graves, 28, was dis-
traught when interviewed and accused her estranged
husband of slashing four tires on her vehicle.
Deputy Lord also learned following the arrest
that Mr. Graves telephoned other threats to his wife
from a jail phone.


Pills, drugs found on walker


nine miles of CR 229 south of
the interstate in September. That
work is expected for completion
in February.
Next on the county's list of pav-
ing projects are Lowder Street,
Mud Lake Road and Woodlawn
Road. All three are currently
under design and will be funded
through close to $4 million in
state transportation grants.
The section of Odis Yarbor-
ough Road immediately east
of CR 125 is now open after
completion of resurfacing and
realignment of road's curve. Con-
struction nearby on the future
entrance to St. Mary's Shoals
Park is ongoing.
The Florida Department of
Transportation [FDOT] is also
working on plans for repaving
of US 90 from Sanderson east to
the county line. Bids on the $7
million project will be opened in
April with construction set for
the summer of 2010, said FDOT
spokeswoman Gina Busscher of
the District 2 office in Lake City.
Already underway by FDOT
is the paving of 2.3 miles of CR


125 north of US 90 in Glen. That
work began October 19 with the
installation of 60 or so drainage
pipes and culverts.
The 70-day project has result-
ed in daytime lane closures start-
ing about 8:30 in the morning on
weekdays, said Ms. Busscher.
The $583,450 effort is one of
50 projects in northeast Florida
funded via federal stimulus mon-
ey.

The sheriffs department ar-

vember 22 for felony possession
of drugs and disorderly intoxica-
tion after he was found walking
on the pavement of Barber Rd. in
the south city.
Deputy Matt Hilliard said
he responded to a disturbance
call and located Mr. Flick, who
he had twice warned the previ-
ous evening for arguing with his
girlfriend in public. The suspect
smelled strongly of alcohol, and
during a security search, Deputy
Hilliard said he found one pill of

He also found a straw with
cocaine residue in it, which war-
ranted a felony possession count
other than the one for having
controlled drugs.
In another drugs case, two
Baker County High School stu-
dents were arrested November
20 for having unauthorized pre-
scription medication.
School officials received a tip
that a male student, age 16, had
narcotics on his person. When
searched by campus deputy
Thomas Dyal, the youth produced
five pills, two of which he said he
obtained from a female student,
age 15.

The second student was then
brought in for questioning and
produced six more pills from an
aspirin bottle. She also denied
the other student's allegation that
she had supplied him with pills.
The male student then made
reference to a note passed be-
tween the two of them earlier
that morning, and the girl then
admitted to giving him pills.
This is the second time this
month a BCHS student has been
taken from campus for felony
drug possession.

Pilgrims, Indians sit down

Thanksgiving tradition at Westside


KELLEY LANNIGAN
FEATURES
features@bakercountypress.com
Lots of hungry Indians and pilgrims at
Westside Elementary feasted on a November
23 pre-holiday meal as part of their study of
the origin of Thanksgiving.
The student Thanksgiving feast is an an-
nual event observed by most of the classes at
Westside.
Students in Jeana Duval's second grade
class, many dressed in period costumes,
waited patiently at their desks set with plates,
cups and napkins featuring a harvest theme.
Parent helpers, who donate and prepare
the food for the meal, set up serving dishes of
ham, sweet potatoes, macaroni and cheese, Indiar
green beans and rolls on a nearby table.
"We're waiting on the mashed potatoes to
get here," Ms. Duval announced to the class.
"In the meantime, let's go ahead and say our bless-
ing."
Everyone bowed their heads and the air swelled
with the murmured recitation of "God is great, God
is good, let us thank him for our food..."
As if on cue, the piping hot mashed potatoes ar-
rived and the feasting began. Even as the students
dug into their meal, they eyed the desserts waiting
on another table seven layer bars and chocolate-
dipped marshmallow cookie "pilgrim hats."
Ms. Duval, dressed in a rust-colored buckskin
dress with fringe and beaded moccasins, moved
around the room between the rows of tables, mak-
ing sure everyone had what they needed. Two dads,
Matthew Wilford and Tom Fink, doled out second
helpings of mashed potatoes to the hungry kids.
"The students made the place mats on their
desks," said Ms. Duval. "They studied what the first
Thanksgiving meal might have featured and com-
pared it to what we are eating today. Obviously, the
pilgrims and Indians didn't have Sprite to drink."
"Or ice cream," said one little boy with black,
white and red stripes across his cheeks. He held up
his place mat, made of brown construction paper
and woven with colored paper strips to resemble a
basket weave.
Attached to the place mat was a list of foods the
early settlers of America might have feasted on: wild
turkey, duck, goose, fish, venison, lobster, pumpkins
and squash, corn bread, dried berries and nuts.

n maid Andrea Pelfrey sits between pilgrims Emily Hill (left) and
Anna Wilkerson.
In the days preceding the feast, the students
learned about the methods the Indians would have
taught the pilgrims so they could successfully grow
corn.
"They produced a sequencing chart for that les-
son," said Ms. Duval. "One of the things they learned
was that Indians buried small fish in the ground with
the corn kernels for fertilizer."
The charts were shaped like an ear of corn which
the children decorated with crayons. Down the cen-
ter of the ear, they attached, step by step, the direc-
tions for planting, tending, harvesting and grinding
corn.
The students also wrote their own Thanksgiving
stories and decorated them with a turkey drawing.
Part of Hannah Wilford's story expressed her
thanks for the holiday and for the original people
who started it:
On Thanksgiving we eat turkey and ham for a
feast. We have a feast with all our family and we
are thankfulfor the beautiful pilgrims and Indians
"The children get really excited about their
Thanksgiving feast here at school," said Ms. Duval,
"and they love to dress up. It's special to me too."
She touches the lovely beaded necklace with In-
dian patterns around her neck.
"I got this at Cherokee, NC, when I was six years
old. I like having such a meaningful occasion to wear
it," she said.

The Lighted Christmas Parade
through downtown Macclenny
this year will have fewer flashing
lights and sirens, thanks to a de-
cision by county officials recently
to limit the number of public ve-
hicles in the line-up.
County Manager Joe Cone
said only one fire engine and one
rescue ambulance will take part
in the annual celebration, a deci-
sion backed by the Baker County
Commission during its meeting
November 16.
During challenging fiscal
times for both the state and lo-
cal governments, the move will
help combat any perception of
wasteful government spending,
no matter how small the expen-
diture may be.
"Every little bit helps," said
Mr. Cone.
While the county has taken

such steps, the City of Macclenny
has not.
"It's good to have the percep-
tion of being budget-minded, but
in this case with the merchants in
downtown, they really look for-
ward to it," City Manager Gerald
Dopson said of the annual event.
"The parade's one of their biggest
attractions."
The city's fire department is
the lead organizer of the parade,
renting out booth space to raise
money for the department's holi-
day toy drive.
Though he hasn't discussed
the matter with the city council,


Mr. Dopson wondered how much
could be saved by limiting city
vehicles for the mile-long parade
run.
"It might be something like
to gallons of diesel fuel," he said,
adding that firefighters and other
city employees volunteer their
time during the event.

Vehicle vandalized with sugar


A complaint for criminal
mischief was filed November 21
against a Glen St. Mary man for
allegedly pouring sugar into the
gas tank of a Macclenny woman's
vehicle.
Heather Bennett said her 1993
Saturn ceased operating that
morning at a north city intersec-
tion, and she noted evidence of
sugar near the gas tank. She ini-
tially suspected a female neigh-
bor on North Boulevard with
whom she had earlier argued,
but Deputy Robert Simpkins
questioned the suspect and she
denied involvement.
Later that day, another wit-
ness came forward and named
George Griffis, 23, as the person
who used a plastic bottle fash-
ioned into a funnel to pour sugar
in the tank.
Witness Floyd Proctor, who
also lives in the neighborhood,
told Deputy Simpkins that Mr.
Griffis was angry at Ms. Bennett
and her boyfriend Adam Christ-
mas, who he suspects stole his
wallet.
In other reports:
Robert Collins told police
November 20 his 1998 Suzuki
motorcycle was apparently sto-
len by someone impersonating a
repossession agent.
Mr. Collins told Deputy Matt
Riegel he is going through a
bankruptcy and thus was not
suspicious when a red tow truck
arrived November 16 at his resi-
dence off Faye Rd. in Macclenny
to pick up the vehicle. The depu-


ty's report notes the sheriffs de-
partment received no notification
that day of a repossession taking
place.
Clarence Ruise reported
his 2006 Yamaha four-wheeler
was taken overnight November
21 from beside his residence on
Faith Temple Church Rd. near
Sanderson.


Meggy Castleberry of Mac-
clenny reported November 19 a
wallet with $15 cash, identifica-
tion and a debit card was taken
from her unlocked 2000 Ford
while it was parked on US 90
west in the city. The theft took
place on November 16.

STATE OF FLORIDA
DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
NOTICE OF INTENT TO ISSUE PERMIT

The Department of Environmental Protec-
tion gives notice of its intent to issue a permit to
E I DuPont De Nemours & Company, David J Pod-
meyer, Post Office Box 753, Starke, Florida 32091
to revise the existing permit for the Dupont North
Maxville Mine. This revision changes the location of
two previously permitted discharge points, D-003
and D-004, from the western portion of the prop-
erty to the eastern portion of the property. The
toxicity language was modified to clarify follow-up
testing procedures. Section I.C of the permit was
modified to clarify when gross alpha and radium
testing is required and how the 12 month average
shall be calculated. The facility is located at latitude
30014'16"N, longitude 82o3'56"W near Starke,
Florida 32091 in Baker County.
The intent to issue and application file are avail-
able for public inspection during normal business
hours, 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Monday through
Friday, except legal holidays, at the Department's
Northeast District Office, 7825 Baymeadows Way,
Suite B200, Jacksonville, Florida 32256-7577, at
phone number (904)807-3300.
The Department will issue the permit with the
attached conditions unless a timely petition for
an administrative hearing is filed under Sections
120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes, within four-
teen days of receipt of notice. The procedures for
petitioning for a hearing are set forth below.
A person whose substantial interests are af-
fected by the Department's proposed permitting de-
cision may petition for an administrative proceeding
(hearing) under Sections 120.569 and 120.57, Flor-
ida Statutes. The petition must contain the informa-
tion set forth below and must be filed (received by
the Clerk) in the Office of General Counsel of the De-
partment at 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail
Station 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000.
Under Rule 62-110.106(4), Florida Administra-
tive Code, a person may request an extension of
the time for filing a petition for an administrative
hearing. The request must be filed (received by
the Clerk) in the Office of General Counsel before
the end of the time period for filing a petition for an
administrative hearing.
Petitions filed by any persons other than those
entitled to written notice under Section 120.60(3),
Florida Statutes, must be filed within fourteen days
of publication of the notice or within fourteen days
of receipt of the written notice, whichever occurs
first. Section 120.60(3), Florida Statutes, however,
also allows that any person who has asked the De-
partment for notice of agency action may file a peti-
tion within fourteen days of receipt of such notice,
regardless of the date of publication.
The petitioner shall mail a copy of the petition
to the applicant at the address indicated above
at the time of filing. The failure of any person to
file a petition or request for an extension of time
within fourteen days of receipt of notice shall con-
stitute a waiver of that person's right to request an
administrative determination (hearing) under Sec-
tions 120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes. Any
subsequent intervention (in a proceeding initiated
by another party) will be only at the discretion of
the presiding officer upon the filing of a motion in
compliance with Rule 28-106.205, Florida Admin-
istrative Code.
A petition that disputes the material facts on
which the Department's action is based must con-
tain the following information, as indicated in Rule
28-106.201, Florida Administrative Code:

(a) The name and address of each agency af-
fected and each agency's file or identification num-
ber, if known;
(b) The name, address, and telephone number
of the petitioner; the name, address, and telephone
number of the petitioner's representative, if any,
which shall be the address for service purposes
during the course of the proceeding; and an expla-
nation of how the petitioner's substantial interests
will be affected by the determination;
(c) A statement of when and how the petitioner
received notice of the Department's decision;
(d) A statement of all disputed issues of ma-
terial fact. If there are none, the petition must so
indicate;
(e) A concise statement of the ultimate facts
alleged, including the specific facts the petitioner
contends warrant reversal or modification of the
Department's proposed action;
(f) A statement of the specific rules or statutes
the petitionercontends require reversal ormodifica-
tion of the Department's proposed action; and
(g) A statement of the relief sought by the peti-
tioner, stating precisely the action petitioner wishes
the Department to take with respect to the Depart-
ment's proposed action.
Because the administrative hearing process is
designed to formulate final agency action, the fil-
ing of a petition means that the Department's final
action may be different from the position taken by
it in this notice. Persons whose substantial inter-
ests will be affected by any such final decision of
the Department have the right to petition to become
a party to the proceeding, in accordance with the
requirements set forth above.
In addition to requesting an administrative
hearing, any petitioner may elect to pursue media-
tion. The election may be accomplished by filing
with the Department a mediation agreement with
all parties to the proceeding (i.e., the applicant, the
Department, and any person who has filed a timely
and sufficient petition for a hearing). The agree-
ment must contain all the information required by
Rule 28-106.404, Florida Administrative Code. The
agreement must be received by the Clerk in the Of-
fice of General Counsel of the Department at 3900
Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Talla-
hassee, Florida 32399-3000, within ten days after
the deadline for filing a petition, as set forth above.
Choosing mediation will not adversely affect the
right to a hearing if mediation does not result in a
settlement.
As provided in Section 120.573, Florida Stat-
utes, the timely agreement of all parties to mediate
will toll the time limitations imposed by Sections
120.569 and 120.57, Florida Statutes, for holding
an administrative hearing and issuing a final or-
der. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the
mediation must be concluded within sixty days of
the execution of the agreement. If mediation re-
sults in settlement of the administrative dispute, the
Department must enter a final order incorporating
the agreement of the parties. Persons seeking to
protect their substantial interests that would be af-
fected by such a modified final decision must file
their petitions within fourteen days of receipt of this
notice, or they shall be deemed to have waived their
right to a proceeding under Sections 120.569 and
120.57, Florida Statutes. If mediation terminates
without settlement of the dispute, the Department
shall notify all parties in writing that the administra-
tive hearing processes under Sections 120.569 and
120.57, Florida Statutes, remain available for dis-
position of the dispute, and the notice will specify
the deadlines that then will apply for challenging the
agency action and electing remedies under those
two statutes.

'Magnolia'


chosen to


represent


Florida
The Baker County Commu-
nity Theatre production of Steel
Magnolias will represent Florida
next March at the Southeastern
Theatre Conference after captur-
ing the state title in Lakeland the
weekend of November 14-15.
The cast will compete against
the winners from West Virginia,
Virginia, Alabama, Mississippi,
Tennessee, Kentucky, North and
South Carolina and Georgia at
the competition in Lexington,
Kentucky.
The original production of the
play ran at BCHS last month and
was trimmed in length to com-
pete at the Florida Theatre Con-
ference at the Lakeland Center.
Close to 2000 theatre students,
teachers and professionals were
in attendance at the festival and
Steel Magnolias got a terrific
response from the audience and
critics.
The cast of Kelley Norman,
Nancy Mason, Sara Beth Gerard,
Niki Knight, Kelly Register and
Leah Wheeler and the tech crew
of Denny Wells, Tucker Wash-
burn, Curly Wheeler and Mark
Mason had to adapt to the fre-
netic pace of competition.
Competitors start with a bare
stage and have only o1 minutes to
completely erect the set on stage.
The tech crew had practiced it like
the actors practiced the play and
was able to assemble the entire
beauty shop in just 41/2 minutes.
The audience burst into applause
at how quickly they were able to
do their work.
The production was cut to 60
minutes and the audience went
from laughter to tears and back
again and cheered and yelled
"Bravo!" at the end to end of the
show.
The group will truck the set to
Lexington and perform in early
March. They will have an encore
performance of Steel Magnolias
in late February as a fund raiser
for the trip.

Legal Notices


STATE OF FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
NOTICE OF INTENT TO ISSUE PERMIT
The Department of Environmental Protection gives notice of its intent to issue a permit (File No. 0169603-
017) to David J. Podmeyer, Plant Manager, E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, Inc., Post Office Box 753,
Starke, FL 32091, for the expansion of an existing surface water management system. The modification is
to provide for the continuation of on-going heavy mineral mining activities into a new parcel, the Cummer
property, at the North Maxville Mine.
The project, as modified, will be constructed within a 4,903.16-acre property area. A surface water man-
agement system for approximately 2,927.22 acres (total disturbed area) will be contained within the overall
property boundaries. The project will dredge or fill a total of 421.13 acres of wetlands and other surface waters.
This includes approximately 209.93 acres of wetlands and surface waters previously approved under Permit
No. 0169603-013. A total of 36 wetland areas and other surface waters will be impacted resulting in 377.64
acres being excavated and 43.49 acres being filled. Additionally, ten ditches totaling 4.24 acres will be impacted
resulting in 3.29 acres excavated and 0.95 of an acre filled. This includes 1.06 acres of ditches previously
permitted under Permit No. 0169603-013.
Wetland mitigation will occur at 29 locations and will create or restore 1.00 acre of bay swamp, 1.00 acre
of gum swamp, 62.38 acres of cypress swamp, 14.76 acres of pond pine wetland, 137.87 acres of wetland
forested mixed, 2.20 acres of wetland shrub, 170.71 acres of other wetland forested mixed, 31.41 acres of
freshwater marsh, and 4.20 acres of wet prairie fora total of 425.53 acres of wetlands. In addition, three areas
totaling approximately 119.24 acres will be placed in a conservation easement. Approximately 30.08 acres
within the conservation areas will be enhanced. Impervious surfaces totaling approximately 0.5 of an acre will
be created in uplands for the concentrate stacker pad.
Reclamation will occur concurrently with mining such that approximately 180 acres will be within the
system, thereby limiting the volume from a 25-year, 24-hour storm that has to be contained and treated before
release. The system will be capable of containing 140 acre-feet of water at any one time. The footprint of the
system will be made up of 1) pre-mining, 2) the active mining, and 3) the reclamation and humate storage pond
areas. The surface water management system is not dependent on the system in the contiguous Maxville Mine
to provide the required storage capacity.
A portion of County Road 228 was relocated and the road surface water management system was permit-
ted with the St. Johns River Water Management District under Permit No. 40-003-108455-1. The permit for
the North Maxville Expansion does not modify the requirements of Permit Nos. 0169603-010 and 0169603-
011, which remain as separate active permits. The permit for the North Maxville Mine modification does su-
persede and replace Permit No. 0169603-013. The completion of construction including reclamation will be
in the year 2026.
The project is located south of Interstate 10 and west of US 301. Relocated County Road 228 lies on the
west side of the project. It is west of the town of Maxville and southeast of MacClenny and is located in Sec-
tions 35 and 36, Section 2 South, Range 22 East; and Sections 1,2, 11, 12, 13, 14, 23, 24, 25, and 26, Township
3 South, Range 22 East in Baker County.
RIGHTS OF AFFECTED PARTIES
Under this intent to issue, the permit is hereby granted subject to the applicant's compliance with any
requirement in this intent to publish notice of this intent in a newspaper of general circulation and to provide
proof of such publication in accordance with section 50.051 of the Florida Statutes. This action is final and ef-
fective on the date filed with the Clerk of the Department unless a sufficient petition for an administrative hear-
ing is timely filed under sections 120.569 and 120.57 of the Florida Statutes as provided below. If a sufficient
petition for an administrative hearing is timely filed, this intent to issue automatically becomes only proposed
agency action on the application, subject to the result of the administrative review process. Therefore, on
the filing of a timely and sufficient petition, this action will not be final and effective until further order of the
Department. When proof of publication is provided, if required by this intent, and if a sufficient petition is not
timely filed, the permit will be issued as a ministerial action. Because an administrative hearing may result in
the reversal or substantial modification of this action, the applicant is advised not to commence construction
or other activities until the deadlines noted below, for filing a petition for an administrative hearing or request
for an extension of time, have expired and until the permit has been executed and delivered. Mediation is not
available.
A person whose substantial interests are affected by the Department's action may petition for an admin-
istrative proceeding (hearing) under sections 120.569 and 120.57 of the Florida Statutes. The petition must
contain the information set forth below and must be filed (received by the clerk) in the Office of General Counsel
of the Department at 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000.
Under rule 62-110.106(4) of the Florida Administrative Code, a person whose substantial interests are af-
fected by the Department's action may also request an extension of time to file a petition for an administrative
hearing. The Department may, for good cause shown, grant the request for an extension of time. Requests for
extension of time must be filed with the Office of General Counsel of the Department at 3900 Commonwealth
Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3000, before the applicable deadline. A timely request
for extension of time shall toll the running of the time period for filing a petition until the request is acted upon.
If a request is filed late, the Department may still grant it upon a motion by the requesting party showing that
the failure to file a request for an extension of time before the deadline was the result of excusable neglect.
If a timely and sufficient petition for an administrative hearing is filed, other persons whose substantial
interests will be affected by the outcome of the administrative process have the right to petition to intervene in
the proceeding. Intervention will be permitted only at the discretion of the presiding officer upon the filing of
a motion in compliance with rule 28-106.205 of the Florida Administrative Code.
In accordance with rule 62-110.106(3), petitions for an administrative hearing by the applicant must be
filed within 21 days of receipt of this written notice. Petitions filed by any persons other than the applicant,
and other than those entitled to written notice under subsection 120.60(3) of the Florida Statutes must be filed
within 21 days of publication of the notice or within 21 days of receipt of the written notice, whichever occurs
first. Under subsection 120.60(3) of the Florida Statutes, however, any person who has asked the Department
for notice of agency action may file a petition within 21 days of receipt of such notice, regardless of the date
of publication.
The petitionershall mail a copy of the petition to the applicant at the address indicated above at the time of
filing. The failure of any person to file a petition for an administrative hearing within the appropriate time period
shall constitute a waiver of that person's right to request an administrative determination (hearing) under sec-
tions 120.569 and 120.57 of the Florida Statutes.
A petition that disputes the material facts on which the Department's action is based must contain the
following information:
(a) The name and address of each agency affected and each agency's file or identification number, if
known;
(b) The name, address, and telephone number of the petitioner; the name, address, and telephone number
of the petitioner's representative, if any, which shall be the address for service purposes during the course of
the proceeding; and an explanation of how the petitioner's substantial interests are or will be affected by the
agency determination;
(c) A statement of when and how the petitioner received notice of the agency decision;
(d) A statement of all disputed issues of material fact. If there are none, the petition must so indicate;
(e) A concise statement of the ultimate facts alleged, including the specific facts that the petitioner con-
tends warrant reversal or modification of the agency's proposed action;
(f) A statement of the specific rules or statutes that the petitioner contends require reversal or modification
of the agency's proposed action; and
(g) A statement of the relief sought by the petitioner, stating precisely the action that the petitioner wishes
the agency to take with respect to the agency's proposed action.
A petition that does not dispute the material facts on which the Department's action is based shall state that
no such facts are in dispute and otherwise shall contain the same information as set forth above, as required by
rule 28-106.301. Under paragraphs 120.569(2)(c) and (d) of the Florida Statutes, a petition for administrative
hearing must be dismissed by the agency if the petition does not substantially comply with the above require-
ments or is untimely filed.
The Department has determined that the proposed activity, because of its size, potential effect on the
environment or the public, controversial nature, or location, is likely to have a heightened public concern or
likelihood of request for administrative proceedings. Therefore, pursuant to subsection 373.413(4), FS., and
rules 62-110.106(5), (7), (9), and (11) and 62-343.090(2)(k), FA.C., you (the applicant) are required to publish
at your own expense the enclosed Notice of Intent to Issue. The notice is required to be published one time,
within 30 days of the date of entry of this intent, in the legal advertisements section of a newspaper of general
circulation meeting the requirements of sections 50.011 and 50.031, F.S., in the county where the activity is
to take place. Within seven days of publication, the applicant must provide proof of publication in the form
prescribed by section 50.051, FS., to:
Department of Environmental Protection
Bureau of Mine Reclamation
2051 East Dirac Drive
Tallahassee, Florida 32310-3760
Failure to publish the notice and provide proof of publication within the allotted time shall result in
denial of the permit.
This intent to issue constitutes an order of the Department. Subject to the provisions of paragraph
120.68(7)(a) of the Florida Statutes, which may require a remand for an administrative hearing, the applicant
has the right to seek judicial review of the order under section 120.68 of the Florida Statutes, by the filing of a
notice of appeal under rule 9.110 of the Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure with the Clerk of the Department
in the Office of General Counsel, 3900 Commonwealth Boulevard, Mail Station 35, Tallahassee, Florida, 32399
3000, and by filing a copy of the notice of appeal accompanied by the applicable filing fees with the appropriate
district court of appeal. The notice of appeal must be filed within 30 days from the date when the order is filed
with the Clerk of the Department. The applicant, or any party within the meaning of paragraph 373.114(1)(a)
or section 373.4275 of the Florida Statutes, may also seek appellate review of the order before the Land and
Water Adjudicatory Commission under subsection 373.114(1) or section 373.4275 of the Florida Statutes.
Requests for review before the Land and Water Adjudicatory Commission must be filed with the Secretary of
the Commission and served on the Department within 20 days from the date when the order is filed with the
Clerk of the Department.

In Loving Memory
of
Jeffery Bumsed Sr.

It has been over 16 years since
that tragic day when you left
us. Our children Susan and
Jeffery Jr. (Bubba) are now
grown up and have children of
their own. Jeff, you would be
so proud of our grandchildren.
It is so unfair that you had to
miss out on all of this. Hayley
is so prim and proper and just
beautiful, Bayley has your baby
blue eyes and she will talk you
into anything, Tyler is quite the
young man; he has your pas-
sion for hunting and a generous
heart, Nadia is just a fireball
with Burnsed written all over
her. I just wanted to say that
we all miss you very much and
wish you were here to enjoy
these things.
MISS YOU,

Maranda, we really miss you
and I know we always will.
Ever since you've been gone
time seems to stand still. You
weren't just my little niece; you
were really a best friend. And
whenever I needed you, you
were always there to jump in.
When myself, your daddy and
Miss Ann were sent away you
stepped up to the plate. You did
what you had to do and you
didn't once hesitate. You were
the anchor to our ship that held
us all together. You did it with
your love and dedication no
one could have done it better.
You left us little Jada and she
reminds me so much of you.
Just being able to see her helps
all of us make it through. Ma-
randa, we miss you even more
with each passing day. I always
mention your sweet name each
and every time I pray.
I LOVE AND MISS You MEME,
YOUR UNCLE, "BUBBA DWAYNE"

Sometimes without you, it
feels like way too much. But
we know that God had it all
planned. So we ask you, dear
Lord, to hold all of our hands
as we go through life each and

seeing you at Heaven's stair-

you are not thought about. You

Why did she have to go so
young? Ijust don't know why.
Things happen half the time
without reason, without rhyme.
Lovely, sweet young woman,
daughter, niece and mother.
Makes no sense to me, I just
have to believe.
She flew up to Heaven on the
wings ofangels. By the clouds
and stars and passed where no
one sees. And she walks with
Jesus and her loved ones wait-
ing, and I know she's smiling
saying, "Don't worry 'bout me."
Loved ones she left behind just
trying to survive and under-
stand the why,feeling so lost
inside. Anger shot straight at
God, then asking for His love.
Empty with disbelief,just hop-
ing that maybe she flew up to
Heaven on the wings ofangels.
By the clouds and stars and
passed where no one sees. And
she walks with Jesus and her
loved ones waiting and I know
she's smiling saying, "Don't
worry 'bout me."
It's hard to say goodbye. Her
picture in my mind will always
be of times I'll cherish and I
won't cry 'cause she flew up to
Heaven on the wings ofangels.
By the clouds and stars and
passed where no one sees. And
she walks with Jesus and her
loved ones waiting and I know
she's smiling saying, "Don't
worry 'bout me."
Meme, your spirit willforever
live in our hearts!

You can shed tears that she is
gone or you can smile because
she has lived. You can close
your eyes and pray that she
will come back or you can
open your eyes and see all that
she has left. Your heart can be
empty because you can't see
her or you can be full of the love
that you shared. You can turn
your back on tomorrow and
live yesterday or you can be
happy for tomorrow because of
yesterday. You can remember
her and only that she is gone
or you can cherish her memory
and let it live on. You can cry
and close your mind, be empty
and turn your back or you can
do what she would want: smile,
open your eyes, love and go on.
How we cannot believe that it
has already been one year since
God called you home.

Wildcats advance in playoff run


BOB GERARD
SPORTS


Slugfest. Smash mouth
football.
Whatever sports cliche
you use, that's what we
got last Friday night when
the Wildcats beat Madison
County 26-17 in the first
round of the state playoffs.
It was a heavyweight
bout, a 15-round affair
after which both fighters
could barely stand and the
fans left breathless and
thankful they got to wit-
ness a great football game.
This was a meeting of
evenly matched teams
that didn't like each other
from the start. Both were
anxious to prove that they
were the better team. It
was FSU-Miami from the
nineties, complete with a
wide left.
When the final horn
sounded, the Wildcats and everyoi
volved breathed a sigh of relief tha
game was over. Now it was time t
wounds and get ready for the next t
battle in Tallahassee on Friday at Ger
Stadium on US 90 downtown again
Godby Cougars, the team that beat ]
son for the district title.
Last week was not an easy game (
field or in the stands. Madison came (
bus with an intention of intimidatir
Cats before kickoff. They heckled the
cats during warm-ups and it continm
they took their "Wildcat Walk" at the 1
ning of the game, and players and cc
alike had to be restrained from mixin;
before the game even kicked off.
"Madison wins a lot of football g
before it even starts," commented (
Bobby Johns, who told his players aft
dust up that he, "hoped they can ca,
check theyjust wrote."
The Wildcats are a hard team to ii
date. It was clear from the early goil

Madison had decided to close dov

cats were to beat them, Ruise would h

Lady Cats

JOE DARASKEVICH I SPORTS
The Lady Wildcats basketball
team went undefeated in the
month of November by beating
Hilliard, Fernandina Beach and
Union County at home and then
traveling to Bradford County on
November 23 to win an overtime
thriller 72-63 against their long-
time rival from the south.
"We were trailing by seven
with less than a minute to play,"
head coach Franklin Griffis said.
"We were able to tie it up with a
free throw in regulation and then
it took an entire team effort to
win in overtime."
The girls held Bradford to four
points in the overtime period
thanks to suffocating team de-
fense as well as a stellar individ-
ual effort by junior Kiana Parker
on the defensive end.
"We spent a lot of time in the
beginning of the season focusing
on defense," Coach Griffis said.
"We've been playing man-to-man
and it's worked through the first
four games."
Coach Griffis stresses the im-
portance of defense, but knows
his team has to score points in
order to win games.
"We still have to work defen-
sively to get ourselves in better
positions on the court," Coach
Griffis said. "But I'm thrilled
with the way Chelsey Ruise has
emerged offensively in the last
two games."
Ruise led BCHS with 21points
against Bradford and although
she struggled to get the ball
through the hoop to start the sea-
son, she had five three pointers in


the way to defeat them was through the
air. Kelvin Singletary, the versatile Cowboy
quarterback, picked apart the Cat second-
ary the way Malik Jackson had done for
Ribault. But the coaches missed one im-
portant point about that game the Wild-
cats won it. Johns felt that the switch to the
passing game was a chink in the armor of
the Cowboys.
"You are who you are and we run the
football, control the clock and play great
defense," said Johns. "They had abandoned
what they do."
Despite having a big game receiver in
Will Turner, the Cowboys couldn't hold the
Wildcats out of the offensive backfield and
Cody Wheeler sacked Singletary to force a
41-yard field goal. Madison held an early
3-0 lead, but it somehow felt like a moral
victory in the stands.
It was followed by Ruise hitting Tym-
achee Givens at midfield on a pass play and
finishing the drive with an 18-yard touch-
down run for a 7-3 lead.
This was not a game where either team
would lay down and die after a little adver-
sity. Singletary hit Turner on a big screen
pass to extend the drive and then found
McDaniel over midfield. McDaniel got his
only big run of the night on a 34-yard scam-
per to the to, and two plays later Singletary
found the running back in the corner of the
end zone to regain the lead 10-7.
Harold Moore gave BCHS good field
position on the kickoff and Ruise cracked
a 38-yard run all the way to the 36 of Madi-
son two plays later. Though Madison had
clogged the center of the line, it didn't have


o 4-0 in week


the last two games as well as the
game-tying free throw to send the
Bradford game to overtime.
"It's nice to start 4-0," Coach
Griffis said. "But we've still got a
lot of work to do."
The Lady Wildcats feature
three senior leaders and two sea-
soned juniors. Senior Meagan
Osteen and junior Kiana Parker
are both averaging more than
to rebounds a game, making for
plenty of second-chance points
on the offensive end of the court.
The other two seniors are both
guards and can handle the point.
Destiny de la Pena leads the team
with 17.2 points per game and
Brittany Burns' team-leading,
nine assists on the season com-
pliment de la Pena and Ruise's
scoring ability.
'"The two juniors, Kiara Battles
and Kiana Parker, are playing
big around the basket with re-
bounds and put-backs," Coach
Griffis said. "The rest of the team
is made up of sophomores who
have been able to step up and
contribute."
After hanging on to win the
first game of the year 62-58
over Hilliard at home, the girls
coasted to a 49-34 win over Fer-
nandina Beach on November 17.
Then on November 19, the girls
won 57-46 over Union County in
a game that was closer than the
final score suggests.
The team doesn't have another
game until December 1 when they
take on Columbia at 7:30 p.m. on
their home court. The JV team
will get things started against Co-
lumbia at 6 p.m.

an answer for Ruise and the veer.
The Cats drove the ball deep into Madi-
son territory, and Moore converted on a 7-
yard run to pay dirt. The Wildcats led 14-10
at the halftime break.
It was clear to both teams and to the fans
this was going to be a battle to the finish
and that whoever made the fewest mistakes
and had the biggest heart was going to win.
It was no surprise that Madison came out
battling to start the second half and drove
the ball down field with a combination of
McDaniel runs and Singletary strikes to
Turner.
Their drive stalled on the 18-yard line of
BCHS and instead of going for a field goal
on fourth down, they put the ball into Sin-
gletary's hands for a first down attempt.
Singletary did a good job of avoiding
Wildcat pressure much of the night, but
down in the red zone when it counted the
most, Dakimby Hogan caught the quarter-
back and took him to the ground.
For the majority of the third quarter it
was both defenses holding the offenses at
bay. But so often it is the special teams that
decide a game and this one was no excep-
tion. At the end of the quarter, the Cowboy
punter shanked one and that gave the Cats
great field position at the Madison 43-yard
line.
The Cowboys simply could not stop
Ruise. The quarterback finished the game
with 156 yards on 19 carries. On this drive,
he broke tacklers and ran the ball down
to the 4-yard line, and two plays later ran
it in from a yard out. The point after was
blocked to put BCHS up 20-10.


one


great year, with our eyes on the
prize of a District Champion-
ship," Coach Griffis said. "The
games have been very exciting to
watch and hopefully more fans
will come out and enjoy some
great basketball."

As the fourth quarter
dawned, the Cowboys
started to shoot themselves
in the foot. They drove into
Wildcat territory only to
b have an unsportsmanlike
L u conduct penaltypush them
back to snuff the drive.
The Wildcats were not
immune to miscues and
when Ruise fumbled on
the next series it looked as
if Madison might have the
break it needed.
The momentum shifted
yet again and Singletary
found Turner on a pair
of pass plays to give the
Cowboys the ball at the
Wildcats' 2-yard line. Mc-
Daniel ran it in and BCHS
held a slim 20-17 lead. The
OS BY JOE DARASKEVICH Cowboys had already dem-
against Madison onstrated that they had a
ender on his way field goal kicker capable of
booting 40-plus yards and
the Cats' blocked PAT was
looming large.
After four quarters of a heavyweight
bout, when the key moment happens it can
take fans and players alike by surprise. In
this game it was a simple snap from the
center.
Deep in their own territory, the Madison
punter bobbled the snap. With the Cats
bearing down on him, he shifted to the left
and tried a moving, rugby-style kick. But
he tossed the ball just a little too high and
whiffed it. The ball went rolling and the
Cats tackled the punter as he scrambled for
it on the Madison 12-yard line.
The cowbells that rattled ceaselessly
from the Madison side of the stands went
quiet. The game had taken the turn that
both sides had anticipated would happen
to one side or the other.
Ruise tossed the ball to Moore, who
scampered in for the score. The Wildcats
tried for the 2-point conversion but didn't
make it. Nonetheless, they were up 26-17
and Madison needed a pair scores to win.
To their credit the Cowboys didn't give
up. State powerhouses like Madison never
give up. They drove into Wildcat territory
and it took a huge hit from Ruise and Mil-
ton Baker on a fourth down try to stop the
drive.
They had one more chance late in the
half but their field goal attempt was wide
left.
It was a huge win for the Wildcats. Coach
Johns ranked it as one of the top two wins
in Wildcat history and the biggest playoff
win. Only the first win over Bradford tops
it in Wildcat lore.


with Coach ohns

We are not satisfied.
I can assure you that although
Friday night's win against Madi-
son County
may rank
as the single
biggest win
in the his-
tory of Bak-
er County
football,
this team is
not going to
be satisfied
with one
playoff win.
We are
determined Coach Bobby Johns
to continue
this climb towards the elite level
of football in Florida and this
week's game against a super Tal-
lahassee Godby team will be one
more step for us to climb.
When the season began, I
knew we could have a great foot-
ball team but there were times
this year I thought maybe I was
wrong. Well, with 2:36 seconds
remaining in the Suwannee
game, we became that football
team and we have never looked
back.
Regardless of the outcome
of this Friday's game, we have
transformed this team into the
one I believed we could be all
along. It has been evident all
year that many people did not
have a lot of faith in us, and I can
understand that after the way we
played at times.
I know that every member of
our "Wildcat Family" always be-
lieved we were special. Now, we
have to ride the momentum even
further and find a way to be emo-
tionally prepared for a huge test
Friday night. We just beat a Mad-
ison team that played in the state
championship game in 2007 and
now we face a Godby team that
played in the state championship
in 2008.
If we win, we would likely
play a Cocoa team that won the
state title in 2008. Please join us
Friday night at Cox Stadium in
Tallahassee as we try to continue
this dream. Kickoff is at 7:30 and
we hope to see everyone there.
