Mourners distraught-over cemetery 'cleanup'
BY MARK J. CRAWFORD
Telegraph Editor
Family members were literally left
digging through dumpsters last week
. for items removed front~ the graves.of
their loved ones after the board of
Crosby Lake Cemetery ordered their
groundskeeper to clean' up the place.
- -As -word spread of the cleanup on
Wednesday and Thursday, a mixture
of devastation, anger and disbelief
gripped the many mourners who
showed up to survey, the damage
done to the graves 4f their loved
ones. The action taken in the wake of
the cemetery board's decision was, in
their eyes, an act of sheer callousness.
Even board members available for
comment admitted things had gone
too far, though that will likely be of
little comfort to those impacted.
"There is a bunch of mad people in
this town," said Phillip Lyons, who
learned of the cleanup. when people
began calling his home Thursday
morning. Among their'complaints is
that no kind of notice. personal or
public, was given before the cleanup
began. Meetings of the cemetery
board also go unpublicized.
,"There should have been some
kind of a warning or letter sent out to
these people," he said. -
Evelyn Goolsby said a plaque was
removed from her brother's grave
along with two lighthouses a stat-ue of
a little boy fishing placed there by her
grandson and other items,-..including
solar lights placed there because her
brother didn't like the dark.
Everything that was on his grave is
gone, she said.
Sheila Lyons said items targeted
were the sentimental items that
family members wanted their lost
loved ones to.keep with them.
"My son is buried out here and
they took all of my son's stuff," said
JoAnn Chastain. "Now I have to
explain to my grandchildren where
the stuff is that they put out here on
their daddy's grave, and that's going
to be very hard to do."

Shands Starke celebrates 50 years
BY MARK J. CRAWFORD
Telegraph Editor
The 50th anniversary of Shands
Starke, celebrated in pe hospital's
atrium March 2, commemorated not
just the history of the facility but how
far the hospital has come.
"2006- reveals a 1 hospital in
Bradford County with the latest
technology and highly skilled
-professionals, who are here to
provide excellent care,'I said hospital
administrator Jeannie Baker. Today's
staff owes the advancement to the
pioneers who opened a; hospital in a
rural county in 1956, she said.
They made house; cal's, they
delivered babies, they covered the
ER, and then they could lake out your
appendix all in a day's work," she
said.
What's different today are the
resources available to an equally
dedicated medical staff.
"From the filmless' radiology,
wireless monitoring,| specialty
surgery cases and Shands Starke
Medical Group, our sleep studies,
therapy services and an awesome
emergency department under Dr. Pete
Gianis, our mission is to improve the
health of the people in this
community," Baker said.'
As much as the hospital has
evolved, Paul Rosenberg, senior vice
president of Shands HealthCare,
which purchased the hospital in 1996,
said the future is bright for the entire
Shands system because of the people
involved in it. Many of the best in the
system, which boasts nine hospitals
and more than 12,000 employees, are
Shands Starke, he said.
"One of the things that is so
wonderful about Bradford Couinty,
and its relationship with the hospital
is the deep community support on all
levels," Rosenberg-said, pointing out
that the hospital's auxiliary formed
before the hospital was even opened
and continues to bring comfort to,
patients and staff. One of them is
Lillian Stump, whose $100,000 gift
helped make possible a health fair in
the atrium on March 3 that provided
free health screenings. Over time the
auxiliary has raised nearly a quarter
million dollars for the hospital,
purchasing needed equipment and
* more, and Shands Starke Auxiliary
President Linda Johns said the
organization will continue to do so.
"We love our community and we
love this hospital, and we love
Jeannie for allowing us to serve,"
Johns said.
Others spoke, including Starke'
Mayor: Steve Futch, who confirmed
the hospital, had come a long way
from the green: hallways he once,
raced down in a wheelchair.

The child has a perplexed look on
her face as she concentrates on the
printed page, before her. The adult
leans down to murmur something
into the child's ear and points to each
letter in the word in question. The
child carefully sounds out each letter
and then grins as she pronounces the,
entire word correctly.
All over the room are pairs that
include one adult and one child. Each
pair is concentrating on a different
activity.,
One pair is playing word
recognition games. In another pair, an
adult watches as a child reads a short
story and then draws a picture about
what happened in the story. In a third
pair, a child is writing his own ending

looks on and provides
encouragement.

Teen dies
in 301
crash
BY CAROLYN EAVES
Telegraph Staff Writer
An 18-year-old with a Starke
address was killed Monday evening
when his vehicle overturned on U.S.
301 south of C.R. 227.
David McKenzie was dead at the
scene, according to the Florida
Highway Patrol. Driving a 1988
Ford Mustang, McKeinzie was
southbound in the outside lane
approaching the rear of other
southbound traffic, according to
FHP Cpl. James Starling. As
McKenzie's Mustang came upon the
rear of other traffic in the outside
lane, McKenzie swerved into the
inside lane and around the vehicle
occupying the outside lane. With
traffic also in the inside lane,
McKenzie travelled to the median,
Cpl. Starling said.
Upon entering the median,
McKenzie lost control and the
vehicle overturned, travelling across
the northbound lanes of U.S. 301.
The Mustang came to rest upside
down on the northbound shoulder
with McKenzie partially ejected,
Cpl. Starling said.
Speed may have been a
contributing cause of the 8 p.m.
crash, Cpl. Starling said. It is
unknown if McKenzie was wearing
a seatbelt.
about. The grant is providing 34 first-
and second-graders from Southside
Elementary with free participation in
the YMCA after-school program and
two free one-hour sessions of
tutoring in reading every week.
According to Program Coordinator
Karen Judd, after only one month, in
operation, the program has already
met with measurable and impressive
success.
While first and second graders do
no take the Florida Comprehensive
Assessment Test, they do take
standardized tests that measure their
reading ability. The students involved
in the* Southside YMCA Reads
Program took the Dynamic Indicators
of Basic Early, Literacy Skills, or
DIBELS, test during the normal
course of the school year.
After participating in the YMCA
Reads Program for just one month,
the students took the test again and all
of them showed marked
improvement, said Judd.

Lawtey City Council
votes to proceed
with sewer project
BY LINDSEY KIRKLAND
TelegraphSraff Writer
At its March 6 meeting, the
Lawtey City Council voted 5-0
to proceed with the sewer
project on the east side of
Lawtey.
According to Mayor Jimmie
Scott, the city's legal team said
O the city could proceed with the
sewer project on the east side,
which is the closest to
completion.
The council took this-
measure to better position
itself in the current sewer
system lawsuit. .Recently,.
another subcontractor joined
contractor B.A. Wilson in
filing suit against the city.
"That changes the name of
the whole game," Scott said..
S Then, he and City Clerk Lisa
Harley discussed how Lawtey
would lose their. Community
/ Development Block 'Grant
money if they did not use it
soon.
'Upon discussion with the
United States Department of
Agriculture's Rural
Development representatives,
Scott said they came up with a
plan to use the CDBG funds -to
correct errors in the 'sewer and
commence work on the east
side. This allows them to get
part ,of the city's sewer
working without interfering
with the litigation process. :
"This seemed to be a good
solution to getting the east side
running: and getting some
movement and also ensure we
do not lose the funds that we
have already been approved
for," Scott said.
When questioned by resident
Steve Griffis if any other part
of Lawtey's sewer would be
completed after the east side,
Scott said, "We're going until
the money runs out."
In order to do this project,
the council voted to file a
third-party complaint against
Jerome Kelley and suspend his
contract for engineering
services.:
To move forward with the
sewer, the council approved 5-
0 to start the process of hiring
a new sewer project engineer.
"This is a way to get it back
on track," Scott said.
Once the CDBG grant
money is used, the city will be
eligible to apply for more.:
grants.

News from Bradford County, Union County and .the Lake Region area
Starke pastor has seen how God changes lives
BY CLIFF SMELLED
Telegraph Staff Writer
Five years ago. Robert
Johnson did not perceive a
change occurring in life. Also,
members of the Starke Church
of God were probably not
anticipating much change
either.
Yet change did occur.
Johnson is now in Starke,
having moved from Marianna,
and the Starke Church of God
now goes by the name River of
Life Church of God.
July I will mark the end of
Johnson's fifth year as pastor
at River of Life. He spent the
previous 19 years at a church
in Marianna. thinking that's
where he and his wife, Marian,
were going to retire.
"However, as many
ministers would understand,
the lord began to rattle my
cage, so to speak." Johnson
said. "We received a call from
Starke and asked if we would
consider coming. We prayed
about it and felt that was
exactly what we were
supposed to do. That's the
reason we are here now."
That was the change
Johnson made in his life. Then
came a change to the church he
-was called to, a church that
had gone by the name Starke
Church of God for more than
70 years.
As Johnson sees it, there
was nothing wrong with the
former name, but that name
focused on the geography of
the church. River of Life is a
name that incorporates the
church's vision.
"River of Life indicates that
a dead soul can come here and
find new life," Johnson said.
Since the name change,
Johnson said the number of
visitor cards filled out during
services has almost tripled.
The name change vwas voted
on at a meeting last month and
there were no dissenting votes,
Johnson said. That meeting
occurred after the church had
already undergone a
change-this one in terms of
worship.
Johnson said he believes
God spoke to him about the
issue of music in the church

Perception becomes reality
When perception becomes reality in
one's mind the thought or belief
becomes prejudice and argument
-becomes futile. This subject was
prompted by an Associated Press
article that quoted Consumer Reports
as saying, "All the top picks in the
annual vehicle guide are made by the
Japanese auto makers."'
The article conceded that Ford
Motor Company's Mercury was
_ numb.er.10 on the list-.- -
"I challenge the findings of the
magazine because of human prejudice
that seems to creep into its
recommendations for products. In
reading the magazine over a period of
time, although I am not a subscriber, I
am convinced that it is written and
edited by graduates of elite colleges
that don't know a pitch fork from a
salad fork. They claim to have based
their criteria on a variety of testing.
including comments from o%% ners. but
when Japanese names begin to show
up at the Daytona 500, the Indy 500,
the Sebring 24 hour and other
grueling races that test the mettle of
men and machines, a basis for their
claims may become legitimate.
A few months ago, another article
appeared in print contrary to the
Consumer Reports story in which the
writer, stated that a majority of cab
operators in New York drive Mercury
sedans because they have the
strongest transmission on the
automotive market.. Today, all
automobiles have strong engines that
will function for 150,000 miles, but
transmissions are the weak point in all
drive chains. The choice of Mercury
cars is understandable by people in* war would be much greater.

Broken
hearted -
Widow has
-..questions
Dear Editor:
I am writing this because my
children and I are among the
many families that have
deceased family members
interred at Crosby Lake
Cemetery. The recent events
that have occurred can be
described as nothing less that
inhumane, unfair, and
insensitive.
I became aware of this
situation because of. a
conversation -between Mayor
Steve Futch and' another party
in my presence. To my
observation, Futch appeared to
have very little or no empathy
(or remorse) for the families
who believed they had a safe
place for their loved ones final
resting place.
The solace of seeing an angel
protecting the most important
person in my and my children's
lives has been violated. I had
my husband's ashes buried
beneath a heavy slab so the
children would always have a
place to be able to visit their
Dad. Thisisthe only way they
can interact with and show they
continue to love, and include
their Dad in their lives. .
It was a place where I could
go and feel a sense of
connection to 'my husband that
was solid and real. Now it
looks dirty, unkempt, deserted
and has caused a new-.form-of
gTiFeTaid -desolation. After
talking to other families that
were affected by the gross and
uncaring decision to clean up
the cemetery I came away with
a sick heavy feeling.
My husband died six years
ago. My children were 7, 9,
and 14. His death was a shock
due to a sudden coronary.
Those three children are now
13, 14, and 20. Our 20-year-old
went through boot camp aind
AIT after graduating from
'Bradford High. School to
become.a Marine reservist.
We had placed a small
unobtrusi e hanging placard
about a foot above his slab that
stated "I m a Marine Dad."
Within si\ months of m.
husbands interment I bought a
small cherub to place on the
top of his slab. Other items
included,-a coffee mug he,
received for a gift from one of
the children the Christmas
before he died that had the word
'"Dad" written on it and a small
duck that his sister placed on
the slab. All three had been on
his slab for approximately 5
years. They had to be pried
from the top of the slab and
have left marks on the slab
where they once resided.
If there is a group of
overseers for (he cemetery that,
gave the order to remove the
items that were placed out there
by loving family, members,
friends, or. associates trying to
ease the indescribable pain
incurred by 'there loss, then.
why did they not pursue the
most logical first step. This is
in reference to the grass and
weeds that in~ many areas of the
cemetery (especially around my
husband's slab),could have been
cut to make it have a tidier,
neater appearance. As for the
insinuated accusations of
gaudiness or excessiveness of
momentum left at the graves
what right did they have to
become modern day grave
robbers. Why did they not give
an opportunity for family
members to remove or clean up
their loved ones' grave sites.
I want to point out that had I
not been present during that
conversation that in no way
included me. I would not have
been aware of the happenings
until we visited the grave site.
I also want it known that
'under normal circumstances we
visit the grave site at least
monthly, more frequently if
health and time permits. Why
were we never given rules,
regulations, standards, rules or
guidelines of what we would be
allowed to place on our loved
ones or if there were a restraint
on the length of time they'd be
allowed to remain.
As for presenting a cleaner
Cemetery in appearance they
have mutilated the slab over
my husband by prying the
three small items %we had placed
on the slab I paid for.
I hope that those involved in
this overwhelming,
inconsiderate, abominable
:decision and act ,vill' never
experience the 'site of their
loved ones final resting, place
.,being so thoroughly
disrespected or the 'lack and
neglect of basic human
feelings. This very wrong
decision which appears to have
been absolutely not thought
out or the feelings of the
surviving family, friends and
others considered at all 'has
caused great anguish and
unbearable grief and despair.
There is no way to replace the
small mementos like the coffee
mug that was his in life' ,
I have a question for those
that made this decision, "How
would you feel if it involved
your spouse, parent child, or
loved one?"
Would you're actions have
been so reckless and not
thought through if it involved
your heart? No, I don't believe
there is any way to rectify what
has been done.
An apology may help if
produced in earnest. I sincerely
hope that in the future attempts
.would be pursued to contact the
living to rectify' unfavorable
situations before such actions
are followed, however I am
also not naive enough to
believe that those people in the
position to enforce there wills
at the cost of others will
.change.
A couple questions for Mr.
Futch concerning the statement
I heard you make that after'
1971 no deeds were given for
the plots at Crosby lake
Cemetery. What was 'the
money I paid and others have
paid for?
Are we renting the plots our
loved ones are resting in and
we ourselves or other family
members will eventually
occupy? Do you and the other
overseers (decision makers) or

meeting
Dear Editor:
A couple of weeks ago
reporter Mark Crawford' did a
well written article about The,
Bradford County YMCA, and
its effort to provide a broader
based health and fitness
program for all of us here in
Bradford County and the city of
Starke.
Last week a couple of letters
to the, editor appeared,
apparently in response to
Mark's article, neither of which
'cleared up any issues important
to both taxpayers and citizens
interested in our well being and
using our tax dollar wisely.
'The YMCA has been in 'our
little county barelyover a year
and already it has nearly 600
members and has provided,
about $82,000 in scholarships.
Through volunteers and the
help of the owners of the KOA
campgrounds close to 100 of
our children have been taught
to swim so far. Afternoon
activities at Lawtey Elementary
School, Starke Elementary and
Southside Elementary, as well
as Union County, help our
children to expand their
knowledge 'and enhance the
social experience.
These achievements would
not be attained if the children
were simply being baby sat
somewhere. ,
Throughout this great'
country nearly 3,000
contmunities like our allow the
Y to run their fitness and
wellbeing programs and many,
many children and adults.
benefit through its scholarship
program who otherwise would
not.
There seems to be some
concern about us losing out if
the Y assumes responsibility
for all wellness and recreation
programs in Bradford County
including Starke and all other
municipalities Presently fewer
than half of our children
participate in team sports
activities. It seems to me that
we are losing out now.
Are we overlooking
something when we have
limited recreational activities
put on by several,
municipalities using the tax-
payers money when one well
respected, highly qualified.
volunteer agency can do it all
without using tax money and
no child or adult will be left
behind. ,
Is it incorrect to believe that
a highly qualified agency with
nationwide respect can do a job
better for less money?
What. pray tell, is wrong
with a governmental agency
who refuses to sit down and
negotiate the best deal possible
for 'the taxpayer and all of our
children.
How can anyone come to
conclusion about anything
without knowing all the facts?
The Bradford YMCA
Founders Committee is having
a meeting on the Thursday,
March 30, at the Family
Service Center at the
Vocational 'Center on Orange
St. and it has invited the city
commission, the city clerk, the
city manager, all themembers
:of the city recreation board.
Being the type of meeting
that it is; I would say that
anyone who lives in this
county who is concerned about
our children and wholesome
recreational activities are also
invited,. '
Let's don't let personal
interest get in the way of doing
what is right for everyone.

Young man feels violated by cemetery 'clean-up'
Dear Editor:
It is my understanding that
the .current mayor and undertak-
er Steve Futch's whole outlook
on the destroyed grave sites is,
"Who cares, it's over and done
with." But what he doesn't
know is that the people who
pulled the stuff off of the plots,
headstones, and slabs have
caused a lot of emotional and
sentimental damage to the
families of the people who are
buried at the cemetery,
I am currently a 14-year-old
high school student. At the time
of my Dad's death I was only'
nine years of age and in the
third grade. The only way that I
have to speak with my Dad is at
his grave site and they've
destroyed it on me. On my own
Dad's grave there was an. angel
and and where the angel was
you can see where they had to
pry it off of the slab.
I personally feel like some-
body has stabbed me and ripped
my heart out. The things on the
tombstones and slabs or grave
sites were the only way that the
families could associate with
the deceased family members. I
feel just like they've broken into
my house and stolen from me
and my family and my Dad.has
died again.
I feel we deserve justice for
what has been done and a rea-
sonable explanation. Not just
we djd it in an attempt to clean
up because if they really wanted
it to look clean they'd mow the
grass and weeds which are
about 17 inches tall, not destroy
the things the families put on
the slabs (grave sites) at Crosby
Lake Cemetery.

that same request and was not
laughed out of the bank. The
man, however, did loan the
money to Johnson.
"That was just a secondary
confirrpation that God really
was directing' my life, that 1
heard correctly and was on the
right path," Johnson said. -
Along that path, Johnson,
who was born in South
Carolina and raised in Florida,
has pastored at several
different churches, as well as
starting several schools. He
has lived in Arizona,
Tennessee, Georgia, California
and Indiana, as well as in
Florida.
SHe was married to his first
wife Betty-who died of
cancer--for 33 years and has
two daughters: Michelle, who
has two. sons, and Darla, who
has two daughters and a son.
Johnson and his current
wife, Marian, will celebrate
their ninth wedding
anniversary in August. Marian
was married 31 years
previously (her husband died
of a heart attack) and she has
two sons, one daughter and six
grandchildren.
Besides being active in the
church, Johnson is also
i- inolsed in civic clubs such as
the Kiwanis Club of Starke. He
is also on the Alachua-
Bradford Workforce
Development Board and has
designed a program, as a
member of that board's Better
Jobs-Better Wages Committee,
that awards financial
assistance to employers who
create new jobs
In recognition for his
involvement on the Alachua-
Bradford Workforce
Development Board, Johsnon
recently\ received the Pat
Farnsworth Bradford County
Community Workforce
Development Award at this
Near's North Florida Regional
Chamber of Commerce
banquet.
Upon receiving the award,
Johnson said. "This is a high
honor and I feel unworthy of
the recognition. I've been in
this community only a short
time, but I pledge, as a pastor
and as a representative of the
chamber, to work to do what I
can to make Bradford County
the best possible place to live."
That sounds like it could
involve some changes,

Continued from p. 1 B "
Lord thy God with :all thy

and with all thy mind," and,
"Thou shalt love thy neighbor
as thyself."
.As for evangelism, it is the
great commission, Johnson
said, citing the verse, "And he
said unto them. Go ye into all
the world, and preach the
gospel to every creature."
Johnson has certainly' proven
that he loves his neighbor,
having often ministered to
members of his various
congregations who -iave run
afoul of the law.
"Getting people out of jail
has been a not uncommon
characteristic of my ministry,"
Johnson said.'
One of his congregation.
members in Marianna was
arrested for piloting a boat that
carried drugs for someone else.
Johnson's advice for the man-
was to just tell the
truth-answer only- .'the
questions he was asked by
federal authorities, but tell the
truth in those answers. : ;- ...
"I- just prayed earnestly
about that." Johnson said.'"I:
just had this inner sense that.
somehow God was going to do
a miraculous thing."
What happened was-the man
eventually was sentenced to
four months in an Alabama
prison -on a charge involving
income tax, but all drug
charges against him were
dropped.
"Here's why I believe that
happened: He repented of his
sin and he appealed to the
mercy of God," Johnson said.
"God was merciful to him. He
got a good slap on the wrist,
but that's all."
Another incident involved
another member of the church
in Marianna-a man who, as a
tax collector for four counties,
embezzled money. The man
was looking at a possible 80
years in prison
Johnson knew the judge the-
man was going to go before, so
Johnson paid the judge a visit..
He did not try to persuade the
judge the man was innocent.
The .man was guilty and
admitted as much.

However, Johnson pointed
out that taxpayers were going
to have to pay to keep the man
in prison and also end up
paying to help support his
family, which would end up on
welfare. All that on top of the
money the man had already
stolen from taxpayers.
Johnson proposed a solution
to the judge-withhold
adjudication of guilt, place the
man on probation and allow
him to pay the money back.
"I said, "Furthermore. if he
doesn't pay the money back,
I'll pay it,"' Johnson said.
The judge did indeed take
Johnson's advice, placing the
man on probation and allowing
him to pay the money back.
"That man repayed
everything and he became a
Pastorr" Johnson said.
Johnson's road to becoming
a pastor did not involve
Anything quite: as dramatic as
breaking the law and avoiding
jail time. Instead, he followed
in the .footsteps of his
grandfather and father, though
Johnson did not originally plan
,on entering the ministry.
"I had determined at an early
age, like 8 or 9, that I was
going to be.a,shortstop- for the
Chicago:.White Sox," Johnson
said.' :
Actually,. Johnson said he
did not.fancy a life in which
every move he made would be
under scrutiny; nor did he want
his children to fall under that
same scrutiny.
However, one day as a 21-
year-old engineering student at
the University of Arizona, he

God wanted.
Johnson turned his sights

at Arizona to. attending Lee,

problem-Johnson had no
money to make the move.
He went to see A man at a'

More than 100 Bradford and
Union County women

Country. Club on Feb. 23,i to
support breast cancer research
ir, the best way they knew
how: talking, eating and
shopping.
The event raised money for
the Vera Bradley Foundation.
for Breast Cancer, which Vefa
Bradley Designs' owners
started after they lost a friend
to breast cancer.
The company has raised
:more than $3.5 million since
1994, according to the
nonprofit organization, which
has led to cancer
breakthroughs at Indiana
University School of
Medicine.,
The chair of oncology at the
university, endowed by Vera
Bradley Designs Inc., is
currently, working -on
biomarker technology to
discover breast cancer through
a blood test, even before a
lump appears.

USA Gymnastics students

The business has been in

years, and on Saturday, Feb.
18, it held its first ever fund-

The Flip-a-Thon was an
event .where the student
gymnasts obtained pledges for
the number of flips they could
complete, Based on his or her
skill level, any student could
perform up to 100 jumps, flips
and other tasks requiring great
flexibility.

Through the years, as USA

students to more than 350

These students were able to
be reached because he and his
wife loaded the foldable gym
mats up on a trailer, hauling
them county. to county, to
teach classes. In their early'
years, they even brought their.
two, young children, Heather

program is held in Keystone
Heights with approximately 60
students, and a Macclenny
program has been in existence
since 992 with approximately
70-80 Mtudents.
"We try to teach kids the
basic' fundamentals of
gymnastics with progressions,"
he sai l.
After school until about 9

he hopes to expand the
business by offering adult
gymnastic classes if there is an
interest.;
He said the gym will allow
;him to offer a variety of
classes, too.
In the current gym on
Walnut Street, the students
have to be careful not to hit
roof beams on the uneven bars
or dismount the balance beam
with no mat underneath.
The new building will allow
the addition.of rings, in-ground
training pits, a pommel horse,
parallel bars, more room for
tumbling and a larger
springboard floor.
Some of this new equipment
,should attract more male
students.
"We'd like to offer boys
classes if we can get more
boys." McReynolds said.
The old gym had dimensions
of 80 feet by 30 feet, whereas
the new one will be 100 feet
by 50 feet, more than doubling
the area, he said. The old
ceiling height was 15 feet,
where the new one will be 18
feet at its highest point.
McRevnolds said the
groundbreaking was in the
-summer of 2005, and he
owned the property for two
years prior, trying to plan and
save money for the building
and equipment.
In one year's time, he said
the price of construction went
up 50 percent.
Another feature of the gym
will- be heating and air-
conditioning, a luxury he does
not have on Walnut Street.
The building will include an
observation room for parents
and younger siblings, who
would wander onto the mats to
watch their older brother or
sister practice.
All of these features will
allow USA Gymnastics to be-
open more days a week,
McReynolds said, resulting in
a more thorough instruction
time and expanded programs.
He encourages all of his
students to watch the
University of Florida
gymnastics team.

"Yoi. also have a lot of role

this, ranging from a small
attack on-ybur perimeter to
dealing with someone who
brings a ick child to the
checkpoint and wants medical
attention," Cauley said. "What
it does is it really makes our
junior.-leaders and soldiers
think."
Thinking is also a critical
part of certain live-fire
exercises where targets pop up,
but not every target should be
shot. Such exercises train
: soldiers to be prudent and
discriminate when firing their
weapons, Cauley said.
Training in convoy-
operations has also become
important' since the Jessica
Lynch incident;'
"Not only do we work
simulations of convoys, but we,

'Cauley said. "Four or five

"Reflexive fire is a very

While this type of training is
taking place year round, Camp
Blanding will still experience
its busiest time during the

periods scheduled for June 3-

approximately 3,000 troops
will be on post, which area
residents may want to keep in
mind because there will be
some late-night firing
exercises during that time.
One of the units that will be
on post during that time is the

Hosting units from other
countries works out quite well
as the soldiers and their
American counterparts have a
lot in common despite their
differences.
"Sometimes there are a few
things you have to take into
consideration with their local
customs and culture, and also
yqu have to ensure that you've

sometimes you may have a

pretty well. That's not to say
he doesn't enjoy his position

"It makes for long days, but
it's a good challenge," Cauley
said. "There is always a lot of
variety .in supporting.
customers because customers'
S needs always change.
S "We really look at ourselves
Sas a customer-service-based
organization. Our customers
are the people who are
conducting the training."
It all falls in line with the
vision statement of Col. Benny
Nelson, the commander of
Camp Blanding. The first rule
is to take care of the customer.
The second is to take care.of
those who take chre of the
customers. The third rule is to
refer back to the first rule.'
S Cauley said Brig. Gen.

Infantry Brigade out, of
Georgia made the comment
S that ,his unit was able to get
twice as much training in half
the time at Camp Blanding
than if they had been at Fort
Stewart, for example.
That kind of comment sheds
light on the relevance of the
work done by those at
Blanding.
"That's our primary federal
mission, to provide a training
facility for troops to enhance
their readiness," Cauley said.

BHS players Newman,
Nichols will play at:St. Johns
BY CLIFF SMELLEY
Telegraph Staff Writer
Bradford High School senior
Jachael Nichols was not
planning on playing\ olleyball
in college. Instead, she was
focusing all of her attention on
working toward a nursing
degree.
Her teammate Tosha
Newman, however, knew she
could play beyond high school.
and told her, in "fact, that she
wbuld.
Newman was right,'as both
players were offered
scholarships by St. Johns River
Community College in Palatka
after participating in open-gym
tryouts.
"When I tried out, .Ijust felt
something different." Nichols
said. "Something in'nm) heart
told me I needed to play. Now
I've got a full scholarship and
I'm going to take advantage of
it."
Newman already had the`
desire to continue playing in
college. She said she knew she
could, but admitted she did not
know if she would get the
opportunity.
*"I wasn't sure what was
going to happen, but I'm
happy." Newman said.
What happened was former
Bradford head volleyball'
coach;Shari Bishop made calls
to college coaches on the
Players' behalf.
"I made a promise to (the
players) when I resigned (after
the 2004 season) that if any of
them had a desire to pla. in
college, it was my job to give
them that opportunity," Bishop
said.
Brian Pappas, the head
coach at St. Johns, was the first
person Bishop called and he
invited Newman and Nichols
to a tryout. He was impressed,
not just with their athletic
ability, but with their
enthusiasm. which he said is a
key component of a player's
success at the collegiate level.
"Mlost girls at this level ha\e
athletic ability, but a lot of
them lack the enthusiasm
necessary to carr\ them on and
make them be able to work
hard at that leeel," Pappas
said. "They appear to have
that."
Newman expressed exactly
that kind of enthusiasm when
Pappas told her and Nichols
that the) would participate in
thiee weeks of all-day
practices prior to'the start of
school.
"If I'm playing volleyball, I
don't care," Newman said.,

Accepts FCCJ scholarship

BY CLIFF SMELLEY
Telegraph Staff Writer
Mary Andrew,. the head
volleyball coach at Florida
Community College at
Jacksonville. admitted she's
not a high-intensity recruiter.
So when she heard that
Keystone Heights High School
senior Jessica Ford .was
interested in the school,
Andrew knew she and her
coaches had to meet with her
and give her a tour of the
school.
Ford signed a letter of intent
March 3 to play at FCCJ.
"We're excited to have her
come to the team and join our
program." Andrew said.
"She's a high-quality
volleyball player and we feel
extremely fortunate that she
chose us."
Ford did receive an offer
from a four-year program-the
University of North Florida in
Jacksonville-but she wanted
to start out somewhere. she felt
comfortable.
FCCJ is that place, she said,
because she knows some of the
players who will be there with
her.
"I think I'll fit in just right
there," Ford said.
Don't think, however, that
because she's attending a
junior college that she won't
be involved in a high level of
volleyball..
"This is one of the best
junior college programs in the
country," Keystone head coach
Scott Conkling said. "They're
always nationally ranked. It's
very high-caliber volleyball. .
"I just think she's going to
do a really good job there. It's
a. really good fit for her, I
think. It's a great program and
it's going to be a great
opportunity for her."
Conkling doesn't think Ford
will have a tough transition to
make because she's played
against some good players in
club ball.
"'She played against kids last
year who are already in
Division I or Division II
(schools')." Conkling'said.
.Andrew said Ford is an
athletic setter who is also
creative. During a workout
with Ford, Andrew said she
and her coaches were left
saying, "That was awesome,"
several times.
"She makes some plays that
other people just would never
think of making," Andrew
said.
FCCJ will be. changing its
offense next year and Andrew
said Ford's abilities will
translate well. Still, Ford, who
had 662 assists during her
senior season at KHHS, said
she needs to improve her
setting skills.
"When the level of play goes
up, your skill ability needs to
go up," Ford said.
Conkling said there's no
doubt in his mind that after
two years at FCCJ, Ford will
be picked up by a four-year
school.
For now, though, FCCJ is
the right place for her to be.
"I'm really happy," Ford
said. "I think it's a good,
decision I made."

Pappas expects both players
to get plenty of playing time
and adds that they have a
chance to continue playing
after two years at St. Johns.
"I think if they work hard.
they'll both hase an
opportunity to play at a four-
