CEDAR KEY-Cedar Key
business owners built and
stoked a bonfire Thursday
night. They were not trying to
warm themselves; rather, the
fire was intended to fan the
flames of citizen disapproval
of recent increases in
commercial property
assessments and taxes.
Event organizer Bill
Phillips opened the protest
with remarks about local
government officials'votes on
millage rates and the budget
for the upcoming year.
"We want to show county
commissioners there's a lot
of disapproval over their
actions," Phillips said.
"We'll call for their jobs
if they don't roll back the
millage rates," he added.
"There's no need to have a
26 percent increase in our
budget." He invited the
approximately 75 gathered to
join in. "If you have copies of
your tax bill...now's the time
to throw them in."
Phillips and his wife Alice
own Cedar Key Bed and
Breakfast.
Few participants actually
burned their tax statements;
however, several people
voiced their displeasure
about assessments, the county
budget and the commissioners
who recently approved the
increases.
The bonfire .was held
on property owned Linda
M. Brandt, wife of Frog's
Landing owner Jimmy "Frog"
Statham. Statham He told the
group his wife had bought the
10,000-square-foot property
five years ago for $64,000.
He said this year's assessment
puts the property's value at
$452,000.
"It, is totally outrageous,
the figures they have come
up with," Statham said. "It
is not salable for what it's


appraised at. The market
here is absolutely flat. The
discrepancy on valuations is
rampant.
"We're asking for equality,


commissioners, and we're
after your hide if we don't
get equality," Statham
said, referring to uneven
assessments.


There is a perception that
some businesses are assessed
at 70 percent of their value
while some go up to 100
percent.


According to Levy County
property appraiser Francis
Akins, all properties are

Quilts stitched with threads of love


BY CASSIE JOURNIGAN
STAFF WRITER
YANKEETOWN-Sewing was both Helen Siegel's livelihood prior to
retirement and has been her passion since. After retiring from an upholstery
business 20 years ago, she began quilting. "I walked into a quilt show and
when I walked out I knew I had to quilt.
I took the first class I could find and
haven't stopped yet."
She has since completed more than
120 quilts. Love inspired the first one
and remains as omnipresent as the thread
that holds her quilts together. "My sister
and I got together and decided to make a
quilt for our mom for her 75th birthday. It
was really amateur-we didn't have any
idea what we were doing."
Most of her subsequent quilts have
gone to her children: "I am the mother of
four children, 13 grandchildren and 13
great-grandchildren. And all my quilts-
from crib quilts to wedding quilts-go to
them."
She's also made a quilt for her Jour

Harley Ultra for when Helen and I go for a ride." She made his quilt from
Harley bandanas.
Siegel grew up in Tennessee. Although her mother and grandmother
quilted, she didn't take a cotton to it. "I wasn't interested," she said. "I
guess I had other things on my mind." Quilts
made by her mother and grandmother now sit
folded in Siegel's living room.
Quilting satisfies her artistic soul and soothes
her through grief. "I've spend a lot of time in
the past few years in a hospital room. When
my grandson, Kevin Connor, first suffered a
broken neck from a diving accident, all I could
do was go in and sit by his bedside." Tears
S glistened in her eyes as she continued, "Finally
.- I started taking my quilting with me. I got a lot
S* of quilting done in that room." Creative Quilts,
a a guild Siegel belongs to, made a quilt to hang
above her grandson's bed. Connor died in July.
Siegel sews quilts for charity as well. Many
of these she calls her "scrappy quilts" because
they are made from bits of inexpensive fabric.
Her fine art quilts are made from beautiful hand-
)hoto by Cassie Journiman dyed batiks and high-thread count calicos. She
more than 120 quilts often waits months or even years to complete a
a plan when she sits quilt, just looking for the right fabric. "I usually
don't have any idea where I'm going with a

Atsena Otie

BY PAM DARTY
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL
CEDAR KEYS-Cedar
Keys National .Wildlife
Refuge was the destination
for the Florida Humanities
Council for a study in
cultures: the ancient ones,
the pioneers, and the families
whose names we still see and
hear in the culture-rich village
of Cedar Key.
Local resident, Florida
Master Naturalist John Lohde
began the day's event with a
paddle over to the historic
Atsena Otie.
The colorful boats made
their way to the "cut"
where a dozen or so roseate
spoonbills preen daily and
Lohde addressed how the
dynamic island had reshaped
itself over the centuries due to
erosion and human activities.
After beaching the kayaks,
he encouraged- the group
to observe debris of earlier
cultures that was scattered
across the beach due to the
attrition over the centuries.
His specialty being flora and
fauna, he wove the thread
of common use of natural
resources by various cultures
that have occupied the Cedar
Keys.
Lohde said of his theme
"Times may change; cultures
and how we use our resources
may change, but our basic
needs as humans remain
constant and predictable."
When on the island trail,
once Main Street to the
incorporated town of Atsena
Otie, the group gathered

around Erik Brogren,
active member of the Cedar
Key Historical Society and
volunteer.
He explained what a
bustling industrial city this
first port on the Gulf had been.
Eyes widened as he recounted
the number of residents and
industries established on the
small island.
Brogren has spent several
years caretaking the 19th
century cemetery: mending
broken headstones, seeking
out missing stones, and
replacing mysteriously
returned head and foot stones
to their proper place of rest.
He shared with the group
his appreciation for the
sincere verse inscribed on
the more than century old
memorials to the pioneers of
the Cedar Keys.

Enterprise Zone Strategic

Plan details major goals

BY CASSIE JOUlRNIGAN
STAFF \W\R'E R
CHIEFLAND-Pam Blair. of Nature Coast Business
Development Council. provided commissioners an update on
the Enterprise Zone Strategic Plan last week. The strategic
plan lists several goals to re\ italize the area:
To add 525 new jobs that are both higher skill and
higher paying in first three years
S To increase job opportunities
S To improve business retention and expansion
To construct or re% italize 50 affordable housing units
To expand transportation infrastructure
To expand utility systems
The proposed enterprise zone targets the 19/98 corridor
running between Fanning Springs and Chiefland, and
Alternate 27 from Bronson to Hwy 41 in Williston. Blair will
be seeking approval of the plan at the Oct. 23 city commission
meeting.
Interim city manager Matt Brock read several annexation-
related ordinances during the commission meeting:
Lloyd Hooper and Mike Fowler requested a voluntary
annexation of two parcels of land, approximately 10 acres
total, into city limits. In this first of three phases of proposed
development, Hooper and Fowler are seeking annexation so
the parcels can be developed into a residential subdivision.
The parcels will be divided into one-half acre lots. The
property is on county route 341 and close to NW 94th Lane.
In the second and third phases of the proposed
development, the two men will seek to have another 88
acres added. According to Fowler, "This will be Chiefland's
first gated community. The homes will be upscale,
comparable to Buck Bay." The men promised to work
with the city to bring sewer and water lines to the area.
Commissioners were advised by city attorney Norm Fugate
that no action could be taken until the proposed annexation

sought by the city has been approved.
Robert and Gail Asbell requested a voluntary
annexation of40 acres into city limits. The property lies along
NW 120th Street and NW 70t Avenue. Once the annexation
is approved the Asbells will ask for the property to be
rezoned to R-l, or single-family residential, although they
intend to continue using the land for agricultural purposes.
Commissioner Teresa Barron's motion to approve the request
was seconded by commissioner Alice Monyei. The request
passed unanimously.
Engineer Lee Mills provided commissioners several options
on a sinkhole located on 10th Terrace behind Chiefland Farm
Supply. Expensive geotechnical investigations could be made
of the entire area to try to discover the extent of underground
caverns. Mills recommended that the city forego the
investigations and simply repair the'sinkhole. Teal Pomeroy's
motion to have city staff repair the sinkhole was approved
unanimously after being seconded by Barron.
Commissioners also considered real estate agent Regina
Goss' request to purchase city property located across from
the train depot on U.S. 19. If she purchases the property,
she will have more room to expand her offices, and plans to
put in a gym. Fugate recommended that commissioners get
input from all affected city departments as well as a property
appraisal. Rollin Hudson's motion to -conduct a surplus
property study received unanimous approval after being
seconded by Barron.
The financial firm of Beauchamp and Edwards' proposal to
provide financial services for $12,000 was also unanimously
approved. The motion was made by Monyei and seconded by
Pomeroy.
Wayne Weatherford, of ChieflandAreaAthletic Association,
informed commissioners about a carnival Oct. 28 from 5-9
p.m. The Strickland Park.festival provides children a safe
alternative to Halloween trick-or-treating. "There is just
one way in, and one way out. Businesses donate candy, and
entertainment will be provided," Weatherford said.
Three Chiefland students were honored as students of the
month during Monday's city commission meeting. Fourth
grader Jonnathan Shepherd, son of Stacy and Lawrence
Rogers; sixth grader Hayley Pate, daughter of Michelle Pate;
and 12th grader Elizabeth Rybicki, daughter of Linda Rybicki
each received a plaque and $50 for superior classroom
performance.

Griffis' experience and values count
To the editor:
This year's circuit judge race is an important one to Levy
County residents. We are supporting Stan Griffis because he
is the most qualified candidate and offers Levy County the
very rare opportunity of electing a resident circuit judge.
Many in Levy County may be unaware that we have no
resident circuit judge. Twelve of the 13 circuit judges live
in Alachua County, one lives in Bradford County and none
in Levy. Stan and his family live in Williston, his opponent
lives in Gainesville. We don't believe that Levy County
has the same access to funding for services and programs,
through resources that are available in Alachua County.
Without local representation, this disparity will continue.
We have no resident circuit judge who really understands
our county's needs.
Second, Stan's values are in line with the citizens of
Levy County. Currently a farm owner in Williston, Stan
was brought up on a farn and is a former president of his
FFA chapter. He has supported our youth at the tri-county
livestock fair for several years. He has volunteered as a
youth coach. He is dedicated to his family, wife Jennifer,
and daughters, Abigail and Hailey. And as a Christian, he
is an active participant in the ministries of his church. All
these characteristics speak for themselves.
And finally, Stan has the knowledge and experience to
make the fair and right decisions required in delicate family
and civil court rulings. Further, and we believe this to be
highly important, his qualifications are unmatched when
factoring in his time spent in criminal court cases and with ,
jury trials, many of which were in circuit courtrooms.
Many of you supported Stan in the primary election. In
fact, those results indicate that Stan carried the majority of
votes in all five of the rural counties, and the rural areas of
Alachua County.
We are excited that we have such a capable candidate right
here among us. He has pledged to serve us in the courtroom
with decisions based on the law. On Nov. 7, or through early
voting (Oct. 23 Nov. 4) we ask you to join us as we vote
for Stan Griffis for circuit judge.

Experience counts with judge

To the editor:
On Nov. 7, I am voting on the basis of experience--my
own, and that of Stephen Pennypacker, candidate for Circuit
Judge.
Having worked for 12 years as a court advocate in three
states and 15 counties, I've seen a wide range of judicial
performances. I write, to commend Mr. Pennypacker's
perfoniancene as truly exceptional. My experience of Mr.
Pennypackertincludes observing his work as general mag-
istrate, in Levy County's dependency court. Consistently
and repeatedly, I have found Mr. Pennypacker to be fair,
respectful, unbiased, prepared, competent and efficient in his
dealings with Levy County citizens.
It is a basic human right for all of us to be treated with
dignity and respect---even in the face of injustice and crisis.
As an advocate, as a woman, as a professional, and as a
member of this community, I insist on this basic right for
others and for myself. Mr. Pennypacker has clearly demon-
strated these principles in Levy and surrounding counties.
"Experience Counts" is more than a clever slogan devel-
oped by Mr. Pennypacker's campaign team. "Experience"
is a foundation for all of our future decision-making. The
more experience we have, the better all of us become at
our many personal and professional roles. Experience is
the elemental foundation from which Stephen Pennypacker
makes decisions on behalf of the men, women and children
in his courtroom. I'd say that 22 years of professional legal
experience does indeed, count.
We would do well in Levy County to keep Stephen Penny-
packer working on our behalf.

Clearing up the confusion


BY PETE SPITTLER
GUEST COLUMNIST
As someone who has been
in the thick of the controver-
sy in Yankeetown for nearly
a year, I am pleased that the
debate in the town appears
to be taking a milder tone.
Having'previously been
called an instrument of the
devil, I am happy for what-
ever breaks I can get.
I have spent a great deal
of time in Yankeetown, and I
found with only a few excep-
tions that the people have
been exceedingly polite to
me, my family and my col-
leagues.
So I am hopeful that we
can attempt to reach consen-
sus with Yankeetown's lead-
ership on a plan to redevelop
the town's waterfront into
viable businesses that will
benefit the town.
I believe a reasonable
discussion'has to start with a
clear statement of the facts,
so I would like to clarify
some issues that repeatedly
are mentioned in relation
to the plans to redevelop
Yankeetown's waterfront.
First of all, Izaak Wal-
ton Investors is no longer
seeking to rezone residential
property in Yankeetown.
As of our last development
submittals in May, and
subsequent applications in
September, all of the plans
we are asking the town to
process are designed in
accordance with current
zoning.
We have also included
"sustainable development"
design principles, and will
continue to pursue LEED
certification in every aspect
of the project. Yankeetown
and the Withlacoochee River
deserve it.
We had previously re-
quested the rezoning of a
piece of residential property
- the so-called "Speck par-
cel." We thought our reason
for originally seeking the
zoning change was sensible
and offered more benefits to
the town. Since both proper-


ties surrounding the "Speck"
parcel were commercial,
we felt combining all three
would offer better boating
facilities, smaller scale build-
ings, public amenities and
more access to the river.
However, rezoning of any
kind, for any reason, is a
continuing hot button, so we
are proceeding with the cur-
rent zoning.
In the past, we also sought
to enter into a development
agreement with the town,
which would have offered
financial and technical as-
sistance from us to help the
town meet its well-docu-
mented infrastructure needs.
An agreement is still pos-
sible from our perspective,
but there are some who still
think it would be unaccept-,.
able to "negotiate" with us.
So we will have to leave
that on the table and proceed
with our plans as submitted.
Here, in a nutshell, is what
we think is possible on our
property. As always, we are
open to a discussion with
Yankeetown leaders who
think they see a better way.
All we are asking is to be
treated fairly.
The initial aspect of our
plan is called the Izaak
Walton Lodge and Marina,
and is planned to include the
current Izaak Walton Lodge
and the Riverside Marina.
The current zoning of these
parcels is commercial, which
allows us to renovate the
Izaak.Walton restaurant and
rebuild the bed and breakfast
lodge, which burned down
in 1999. It also allows us to
include a general store, gal-
leries, resort residential units
and a marina.
The second aspect of our
plans is the Yankeetown
Boat Company and Fish
Camp, incorporating the
Speck parcel, Yankeetown
Marina and B's Cypress
Marina. As stated above,
Izaak Walton Investors is no
longer asking to rezone the
Speck parcel. Therefore, our
submitted plans call for the


Speck property to include
only eight single-family
residences on five acres, and
eight boat slips.
The Yankeetown Marina,
which is zoned commercial,
will include 36 resort resi-
dential units on two acres,
and twenty-four boat slips.
B's Cypress Marina, which
is zoned commercial, will
include 54resort residential
units on two and one half
acres, and 31 boat slips.
The third aspect of our
plans is called the Anchor-
age Boathouse and Preserve,
which is along Cormorant
Canal. This property is cur-
rently zoned commercial as
a "Special Marina District,"
and is the only property in
Yankeetown that allows for
a dry dock marina. Ap-
propriately, this project will
consist of two 88 slip storage
,, buildings; and two buildings
with 24 resort residential
units each.
As in any development in
Florida, there will be many
details that have to be re-
solved as we move forward.
Fortunately, town ordinances
provide for ways to amicably
resolve these details.
A give-and-take process
to find a middle ground is
the best way, but some in
Yankeetown have in the past
expressed a confrontational
"bring-it-on" attitude, all but
inviting us to sue over our
development.
We have already been
forced to litigate some con-
tractual and other issues in
Yankeetown, chiefly based
on the actions of individuals
who were not acting in good
faith. I remain optimistic
because I do not believe
these individuals are repre-
sentative.
We consider litigation to
be a last resort in any situ-
ation, and prefer to engage
in good faith negotiations
conducted with honesty and
respect by all parties.

project architect for Izaak
Walton Investors, LLC.


SStill running

in circles


I have been in a whirl-
wind for the past week
thanks to the three
young people who call me
mom.
All three summoned me
to Georgia; each for his own
reasons.
Allison wanted me to
bring her
things for
her new
apart-
ment; Nick
wanted
my opin-
ion of his
apartment's
redecorat- CAROLYN RISNER
ing job and
Spencer wanted me to watch
him march with the band.
And though it wasn't the
best time to travel, I did the
motherly thing and took off
for Georgia at 11:30 Fri-
day morning. I got to the
stadium just in time for the
kickoff at 7:30, did my duty
and watched a five min-
ute band performance and
concluded my youngest has
no rhythm after a freestyle
dance midway of the show.
My daughter videotaped the
entire thing so you just might
see him on YouTube in a clip
titled, "He's got no soul."
I spent Saturday wan-
dering around an autumn fes-
tival while Spencer bought
literally hundreds of baseball
cards and later we went to
visit Nick in Athens where I
watched four or five college
football games, both on TV
and the Internet. Vandy beat
UGA and the mood among
Nick's roommates was som-
ber, which didn't make for
a pleasant afternoon despite
the soothing green they had
painted the living room.
Finally when I could take
it no longer and right before
Kentucky kicked off, Spence
and I headed to see Allison's
apartment.
After the 50-cent tour and
me unloading a box of stuff
and an old vacuum cleaner
off on her, Spence and I went
back to the festival to see the
fireworks. Only I couldn't
find a parking spot and we
both grew frustrated and
gave up on the street dance.
By the time I slipped
between the sheets, I was
so tired and had already put
about 700 miles on my car
in a 24-hour period. By the
time I got back to Chiefland,
I already needed a new oil
change and I'm not supposed
to get one until Dec. 10!
Tuesday morning the 300
millionth person was born
in the United States. And
as I watched babies being
wheeled into the nursery, all
I could think was how noth-
ing has changed in 24 years.
I am still running around
in circles and still trying to
keep up with my children.
And they call these the
happy golden years?
I call them exhausting.

Commissioners give chief high marks Officer of the Year


BY CASSIE JOURNIGAN
STAFF WRITER
CHIEFLAND-Police
chief Robert Douglas learned
commissioners are satisfied


with his job performance
during his six-month review
Monday. His review was
conducted in a special hearing
before Chiefland's regular
city commission meeting.
"I am very pleased with
what the chief is doing in
town. He has a lot of energy.
I believe he is one of the
best chiefs we've ever had,"
said Commissioner Teresa
Barron. She added that he is
resourceful and visible, and
has an open-door policy.
Other commissioners
underscored her comments.
"I gave him the highest
points on everything, other
than the fact he doesn't live in
Chiefland," Rollins Hudson
said.
Mayor Betty Walker said,
"He's the best chiefwe've had
in awhile. He does lots of PR
work, has a good personality
and is a good organizer. I
like the way he works with
the Sheriff's Department.
Complaints are mild, not like
they had been before."
Walker urged Douglas
to continue his efforts,
"especially in the areas of
drug eradication and the
protection of our kids."
Commissioners gave
Douglas suggestions for

ing, his evaluation last week.


improvement.
Alice Monyei would like
to have' notice on hirings
and terminations as: well
as programs the chief is
conducting. She also wants
more Neighborhood Watch
programs, and feedback on
citizen complaints.
The chief said complaints
are now written down,
investigated, and answers
provided to those making the
complaints.
Douglas pinned his success
on his employees.: "My guys
and gals are the reason my job
goes well. They could make


more money other places
but they're dedicated to you.
They are an outstanding
group of people."
During the regular
meeting the chief addressed
commissioners on two
separate issues.
Douglas first asked
for a nuisance abatement
order. This would allow
establishment of a board to
decide how to handle repeat
offenses involving drugs and
stolen property. "This is a
tool-it will allow us to shut
down a house of someone
having two drug violations


in a six-month period." He
mentioned other areas, such as
Ocala, that have successfully
removed so-called drug
houses in this manner.
Teal Pomeroy moved to
approve the chief's request.
Teresa Barron said,, "I
like the idea but I want
precautions so we don't take
somebody's house-older
people may not have a say-so.
I want to see safeguards for
these people." She was told
the board of adjustment, who
would decide the eventual
disposition of properties that
may be subject to closure,
would only act in extreme
instances.
Barron seconded the motion
and it passed unanimously.
Douglas also brought up
an ordinance to allow city
to establish a user fee for
recovery of costs incurred by
police responding to vehicle
accidents.
Under this plan a private
company, Cost Recovery
Corporation, will handle
billing to insurance companies
for fee collection. This was
considered a first' reading
since an earlier reading was
sent back to the corporation
for clarifications. The reading
passed unanimously after a
motion was made by Pomeroy
and seconded by Barron. A
contract will be presented
during the second reading.

Managed growth weighs tops on concern list


BY CAROLYN RISNER
MANAGING EDITOR
CHIEFLAND-Preparing
for and controlling the growth
that is expected in Chiefland
is the main problem facing
the city today, community
leaders agreed last week.
In a joint meeting with city
commissioners and the plan-
ning board, the top issues
facing the city were brain-
stormed in the first of a four-
step process for the Evalu-
ation and Appraisal Report
(EAR), which addresses how
the city's comprehensive plan
addresses major issues.
Facilitated by Bruce Day
of the Withlacoochee Plan-
ning Council, the meeting
was designed to pinpoint
what leaders think before
bringing those ideas to the
public for comment.
After the public hearing,
which could be sometime be-
fore the end of the year, the
EAR will be tweaked, sent to
several agencies for review
and then come back to the
city commission for adop-
tion.
The .planning board and
three commissioners (Rol-
lin Hudson and Teresa Bar-
ron were absent) had a round
table discussion of concerns
that included:
*Growth management
*Infrastructure
*Funding
*Traffic
*Beautification
*Economic development
*Recreation
*Public safety
*Planning for an aging
population
*Proactive code enforce-
ment
*Environmental issues

cussion on these main top-
ics with their subtopics, the
group was given five stick-
ers to place on charts on how
they ranked the concerns.
Once everyone had com-
pleted the task, Day said
the top four were growth
management, infrastructure,
funding and traffic.
Then he posed the ques-
tion, "What the tools in
the toolbox that may affect
these?"
Responses included impact
fees, public-private partner-
ships, interlocal agreements,
crime, developer agreements,

cost of housing and vacant
storefronts.
Day will now take the data
from the meeting back and
prepare it for the public hear-
ing.


At that time citizens will
have an opportunity to speak
to these issues or any oth-
ers they feel need to be ad-
dressed in the comp plan.


Fanning Springs to dedicate park
The city of Fanning Springs will dedicate the Fort Fanning
Historical Park, a site of the Second Seminole Indian War
battle Tuesday, Oct. 24 at 11 a.m.

Red Devils in race for district title


BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
WILLISTON-During
Williston's off week, Head
Coach Jamie Baker was very
careful to emphasize the Red
Devils had been handed a gift
and it was up to them to make
the most of' it by defeating
Santa Fe.
And, in the end, the
team responded to Baker's
assessment with a notable 40-
20 victory over the Raiders.
h1 doing so, they solidified
their spot at the top of the
class 3A-district 5 standings
and put themselves in control
of the race for the district
title.
Even though the final score
was quite impressive, from
the Williston point of view,
the game started with what
seemed to be an, ominous
Halloween-like Friday the
13th gremlin hanging over
the contest.
TheRedDevils'firstquarter
fumble was recovered and
ran back 13 yards byDeonte
Lee to put the Raiders on top
early. It was the first of five
fumbles committed- by the
Red Devils.
Despite the fumbles, the


defense kept their poise and
as they have all season long,
put their stamp on the game
by playing their brand of Red
Devil football. They would
give up a total of only 135
rushing yards and 49 yards
through the -air. Among
the aspects of the game
that Baker underscored in
preparing for the Raiders was
stopping their running backs,
K.J. Carter and John Joseph.
"We fumbled twice at the
beginning of the game and
they were both inside the five
yard line, so they only drove
the ball once," Baker said.
"We have to control the ball
better. Fortunately we had
some big plays and sometimes
those kinds of plays can really
negate mistakes. But we got
lucky this time that we only
lost two of the fumbles and
they didn't hurt us, because
we were able to put together
some big plays."
The Red Devils rebounded
from the first quarter miscue
to make it a 14-14 game
at halftime as the defense
allowed the offense to find
their footing and get their
groove on.
But it was quarterback


Devin Timmons who was
the deciding factor on this
particular night and got the
offensive train rolling when
the Red Devils needed it the
most.
While his name has stood.
South in the Red Devils' spread
offense throughout the year
and he has been an important
cog in the Red Devils'
machine, on this particular
night, he made as big an
impact as one player can
make in a single contest in as
few plays as possible.
In setting several personal
bests, he threw only nine
passes but completed eight for
342 yards and a touchdown.
He added to those totals with
21 yards rushing.
"He threw the ball well,"
Baker said. "The receivers
got open and ran the routes
the way they were supposed
to. With that combination he
just couldn't miss any passes.
He and the whole team threw
the ball very effectively. They
held our rushing game down,
but our passing plays came up
big. So, I think we showed
that we can run a balanced
offense as far as both the
running and passing games

having an equal impact.
"We ran the ball more and
that was true again against
Santa Fe as far as the number
of plays, but everyone proved
they can block for the pass
and run an offense with
passing plays that gain big
yards as well," Baker added.
Among Timmons exploits
were 81 and 48-yard
touchdown bombs and his
shortest pass completion was
a very healthy 24 yards. He
also ran for a touchdown. The
touchdown passes came with


the score still tied at 14-14 in
the third quarter, giving the
Red Devils the decisive push
to win the game. Even with
a game that will stand out for
a long time in the Williston
football annals, Timmons
was very aware of his
defense's role, emphasizing
their outstanding play and
that he would not have been
able to lead the team to their
decisive scores without them
doing their job.
Baker agreed with him.


"It takes a lot of pressure
off of the offense when the
defense plays well, which it
has done all season," Baker
said. "The offense is more
relaxed and it showed Friday.
Now we have put ourselves in
a position to win the district,
but we still got to take the
approach that we have our
work cut out for us for every
game. We can't come out flat
and make mistakes and not
take anybody lightly."
With the two-touchdown
lead they never looked back
as they added another rushing
touchdown and two field
goals for the final score.
With the win, the Red
Devils upped their overall
record. to 5-2, but more
importantly now stand alone
in the district standings at 2-
0.
They will take on West
Port next week in the final
contest of a four-game swing
on the road. It will also mark
the second of three straight
district games and will be:
the final tune-up before their
long awaited clash against
North Marion, the district's
defending champion.


GOLFERS IN THE RYE


Tournament starts Friday


BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
CHIEFLAND-After
shooting a score of 139
in last year's Rye Grass
Tournament at the Chiefland
Golf and Country Club, Jamie
Whitehurst.ireturns in 2006
to defend his title. Marsha
Whitener will compete
this year as the women's
defending champion.
Started in 1979 as a means
for the golf and country club
to raise money to purchase
the rye grass the -course
needs during the winter, the
tournament has grown from a
small local community affair
into a statewide and festive
event.
.For over 10 consecutive
years the tournament has
been played at its capacity of
200 male golfers and totals
226 total competitors for
this weekend's event. The
tournament has grown four-
fold sinceits first outing had
a total of about 50 golfers. In
fact, it averages about 125
returning players every year.
"It has really grown from
its modest beginnings,"
Thomas Bailey, the
tournament chairman said.
"It was originally a local
tournament with about 50
people competing. Now it is
a statewide tournament and
we have golfers from up north
compete. It has become a
very competitive tournament.
This year we have 40
players whose handicaps are
under 40 and without the
paperwork in front of me, I
know we have six or eight
who have handicaps of 0. We
are proud of that in a distinct
tournament. It is the only one
that raises money for grass.
It brings a lot of business into
the community and helps with
the community's finances."

The men will be divided
into flights of 20 golfers
according to handicaps. Gift
certificates will be awarded
to the three lowest scores in
each group. With only 26
golfers, the women will have
only one flight. The action
begins this afternoon with
an 18-hole scramble for the
men.
The tournament itself is
scheduled to run from Friday
through Sunday. The men
have the option of playing
their first 18 holes on either
Friday or Saturday. Friday
" *..


THEY'LL BE teeing off Friday at the Rye Grass Tour-
nament at the Chiefland Golf and Country Club.


and Saturday's tee time for
the women is 8'a.m. The
men take to the links at 1 p.m.
on Friday and'12:30 p.m. on
Saturday. Their final round
begins at 8 a.m. and 12:30
p.m. on Sunday. Another
indication of its growth is the
addition of a new gold-tee
flight for senior golfers this
year.
After- competition
entertainment Thursday and
Saturday will be highlighted
by dinners included with the
tournament fee. Thursday's
nighttime meal features the
tournament's traditional
sampling of the state's finest
seafood.
With Disney's Polynesian
Resort providing the food and
entertainment on Saturday, it
definitely is set to be a more
extravagant affair than its
counterpart.. The Polynesian
Luau's' individuality is
centered on a pig being,
cooked over an open flame.
The tournament's overall
winner will receive a clock
trophy and have his or her
name mounted on the club's
wall of tournament winners.
However, there will be prizes
for every competitor ranging
from gift certificates of $150,
$100 and $75 dollars for the
top threp golfers in every
flight to equipment and dress
apparel.
In addition, the
tournament features specialty
competitions each day; the
longest drive, the straightest


drive, the longest putt and the
closest shot to the hole off of
the tee.
Local automobile dealer
Scoggins Chevrolet is also
contributingtothe atmosphere
by offering a vehicle to any
golfer who shoots a hole in
one.
The only requirement for
entry into the tournament is
for the applicants to have a
PGA approved handicapped
of 32 or lower.
"We are very excited about
this year's tournament,"
Bailey said. "Every year
there are some similarities to
past events, but there is also
a unique character to each
one. Whitehurst defending
his title against such good
competition during this event
and him being from the
county will definitely make
for that uniqueness this year.
Whitener will also have to be
on top of her game. Dot Bird
from Gainesville is coming
and that will be something to
see.
"This tournament has
certainly grown and it is
something that gives this
community some style to the
outside, especially since a
lot of the competition comes
to it by word of mouth,"
Bailey continued. "We have
kept the prices reasonable
and cheaper than- most
tournaments and considering
the entertainment, food, gifts
and the fact everyone gets a
prize, it is a good deal."

IEVY COUNTY JOURNAL


It was a true shame of what sports can become


mong the things
I have seen as
a male growing
up in America is the rise
of the University of Miami
Hurricanes' football
program. Of course,
included in that list is the bad
boy image that the program
has thrived on and used as
motivation.
Although I have never
personally seen it as
something to attach myself
to as a sports fan and
sportswriter, I do understand
how it has worked for the
program. But watching
the battle that occurred
last Saturday between the
Hurricanes and Florida
International University even
for someone like myself,
who has taken this attitude
for over 25 years now, this
was too much. With that


said, this opinion shouldn't
be a surprise as everyone
has commented it was an
abhorrent and revolting
scene.
However, what concerns
me is that this was not an
episode that was strictly
sports related. It transcends
sports into everyday life.
The reason I say this
is because these are the
actions that if you or I as
average ordinary citizens of
whatever community we live
in took, we probably would
have been arrested and had
criminal charges brought
against us. In fact, while I
have no children, I do one
day want to be a father and
I can't imagine anything
more painful than seeing my
children act in such a vulgar
and uncivilized manner.
Their actions were not only


unbecoming of why I love
sports and why they have
meant so much to me over
the years, but also as a male
who takes great pride in
trying to be a role model of
what a man should be.
Of course, along the way I
have done some things I am
not proud of, but I have also
learned from my faults and
to see these football players
act in the way they did I
could not imagine myself
letting my testosterone or
machismo lead to taking
such archaic, Neanderthal
actions and displaying such a
beastly way of thinking.
Then to further illustrate
just how far the Hurricane
program has sunk, Larry
Coker said in his press

Eagles out-manned by best in state


Down By The Lazy River


BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
BRONSON-In the words
of Bronson's Head Coach
Greg Brochetti, the
Lafayette Hornets
are the number
one team in the
state for a reason
and they proved it
with decisiveness
and rapid fire last
Friday in their 57-
0 victory.
The Eagles once again
tried their best and came into
the game after several hard
practices during the week.
But with their mounting
injuries, it would have been a
hard task for the team to give
the Hornets a challenge even
if they had held onto the ball
and played with the poise of
an experienced group.
"They just simply out
manned us," Brochetti said.
"They will probably be the
best team we face all year.
We did the best we could, but
we were pretty much out of
it from the beginning. We
have lost six starters on both
offense and defense and that
many injuries in class 1-A
make it real tough. We gave
it 100 percent during practice
and everyone is keeping
their spirits up, but they are a
talented team with some very
good coaches and they played
like it."
The Eagles threw two


interceptions and lost two
fumbles on their side of
the field in the first period.
Lafayette, as the best team
in the state should,
took advantage of the
turnovers, scoring
four touchdowns on
the short field. They
added 12 more points
to make it a 40-0
game at the end of
the first quarter. The
halftime score was 54-0.
To add to the Eagles'
mounting problems for
this game and the season,
quarterback Kelby Barber left
the game in the first period
after suffering an injury.
After entering a gunfight
without any guns against
the number one ranked team
in the state, Bronson gets a
break as they travel to Trenton
tomorrow.
With injuries as significant
as the Eagles have had,
Trenton enters the game with
a 1-6 record. However, they
are expected to have several
of the injured players in
uniform and ready to play.
Brochetti acknowledged they
are a better team than their
record indicates.
"On the injury front, we
are hoping to get a couple
players back." Brochetti
said. "We will do the best
we can and give it our. best
effort. We had some good
performances last week.


Morrison played well in the
second half at quarterback
as well as Jeremiah Brown,
Jesse Waybright and Virgil
Greenlee having good games.
However, there isn't really
much to say when you are in
our position, except the kids
are giving it their best effort
and we will take that into the
game next week."
The Hornets ran a balanced
attack as running back Eric


McIntyre rushed for 118
yards on eight carries and
quarterback Chad Hempstead
finished 9-10 in the passing
department for 100 yards. He
threw three touchdowns.
Lafayette's head coach,
J. Pearson, agreed that the
Eagles have suffered some
very difficult injuries this year
and it showed, particularly
in the first quarter with the
turnovers.

conference following the game it was not a big deal and
shouldn't be a scar on the football team.
And if that wasn't enough, former Hurricane turned
radio color analyst Lamar Thomas made his block-headed
comments.
As someone who played high school football, I was a
mean and surly running back. I would rip someone's head
off if he got'fin'i y way during a play, but whetfsomeone
straps on the helmet it is understood that is part of the game
and they have just as much right to adopt the same attitude
as I do. -However, like anything else in life there is a time
for everything.
I have seen my share of men who missed the boat on
understanding that part of being a man is not just machismo,
but also understanding that not everything can be handled
by brute force and imposing one's will on another through
physical intimidation. Nor is it healthy in setting an
example.
In one fell swoop the players indicated they also missed
the boat. It was an example of the true shame of what sports
can become if not properly administered by those who have
such authority.
My football coach was a tough hard-nosed ex-Marine who
understandably believed in order and discipline. Part of
that discipline was calling older mei Mr. or coach and older
women Mrs. or Ms, looking for trouble was unacceptable.
If someone did something you didn't like you took care
of business on the field between the tackles, not as a.street
goon.
Watching this fight become a mountain from a molehill,
I was not only appalled by the physical actions but by
what this episode represents, the decay of the sports world

changing from one where role models could be found and
a teaching tool for young men and women about how to
deal with the good and bad of what life offers. It is true that
sports has had its share of athletes and individuals who were
not very good role models, but what seems to have changed
is that among the chaos and confusion that there was before
the negative feelings the players had towards their opponent
became an allout street fight, there used to be a majority of
players who realized what was about to happen and acted
accordingly. It was an example for teammates and the
average person.

we do not take the appropriate actions to: tenure, theygQp

harsh actions have been slow and ambiguous and while the

beyond sports, it is but one in what is becoming a sad list of
what the climate of sports has fostered.

Willliston needs win on the road


BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
Williston (5-2) vs. West
Port (1-5)
2005 score: Williston 30
West Port 13
Overview: After defeating
Santa Fe, Williston now
stands alone the class 3A-
district 5 standings. At 2-0,
they are the only undefeated
team in the district and have
taken control of the title
chase. However, they still
have to finish the job over the
next two weeks as they. take
on West- Port tomorrow and
then meet North Marion in
their long awaited rematch in
two weeks.
The team entered this
season with aspirations of
winning the district and
advance further than the
second round of the playoffs
as they did last year, and with
four games left they have put
themselves in a position to
accomplish those team goals.
However, while West Port
might not have the name or
the record'as some of the
Red Devils more acclaimed
opponents this year, they
still need to play this game
as if they were meeting one
of their more noteworthy
adversaries. A win would up
their district record to 3-0 and
give them a one game lead
in the district standings with
only one game left in district
play. Even though the Red
Devils' position was further
solidified by Dunnellon's
surprise victory over the
district's defending champion
North Marion three weeks
ago, they must keep winning
to maintain control of their
destiny.
Williston update: Last
week the Red Devils
suddenly developed a case
of the fumbles and they are
still struggling with slow
starts. Although this time
they only fell behind 7-0.
Big plays from the passing
game bailed them out as
quarterback Devin Timmons


had a monster performance.
The Red Devils totaled a
somewhat respectable 147
yards on the ground, but
they have rushed for at least
225 yards in every game this
season. With the ground
game being slowed down they
proved they could adopt and
win with an efficient passing
game designed to create big
plays.
In fact, Willistonhas thrown
nine touchdowns against only
two interceptions through
seven games this year and are
averaging over 20 yards per
reception when they do go
to. the air. The ability to pass
makes the Red Devils a more
balanced team, as far as their
ability to generate impact
plays, than most opponents
realize. This will be the final
game of a four game road
swing and the second of three
consecutive district games.
The Red Devils can ill afford
to overlook West Port, in lieu
oftheir showdown with North
Marion next week.
Coach speak: "This is a
huge district game and we got
to win it," Baker said. "We
can't take anybody lightly
or everything we have done
to put us in this position will
be forgotten. We can't take
anybody lightly, especially
West Port. They were leading
North Marion in the fourth
quarter last week. They have
speed, talent at their skill
positions and know how to
hang tough. We can't come
out flat or fumble if we want
to achieve our team goals
against any of the remaining
teams on our schedule.
What to look for: With the
Red Devils' spread offense
for the first time this year
slowed down decisively,
West Port might copy Santa
Fe's game plan and try to
force the Red Devils to beat
an opponent for the second
consecutive week through
the air. Quarterback Devin
Timmons as usual was called
upon to engineer an aerial

attack composed of efficiency
and big plays at critical times.
However, he went beyond
the call of duty with 345
yards, which included 81 and
48-yard touchdown passes.
While Timmons doesn't need
to have that kind of a monster
game, he might have to up his
performance for the second
Consecutive week above and
beyond what the team has
come to expect from him.
The rushing game still.
showed flashes of why it can
control the game as it scored
three times. Marquis Minor
led the charge with 73 yards
on' nine carries. However,
Deonte White and Travis
Evans have all taken turns as
the man during the season. If
they get their ground game
running again, anyone of
these running backs could
have the hot hand, posing
a problem for West point.
Which back to key.on in?
Playing their fourth straight
road game and this particular
game having the implications
it does for the district title,
it could be an important cog
in the Red Devil machine
against West Port.. In fact,
after winning the last two
road games, the Red Devils
seem to have learned how
.jo .put .aside the distractions
of the road, but they are still
being plagued by slow starts.
The need to keep their poise
as a tight game throughout is


a very strong possibility.
In West Port, the Red
Devils will face a team that
uses the spread gun with
some high scoring games as
the result. Their physicality is
the catalyst for such a potent
offense. The Red Devils will
have to counter with their
strength and speed as they
have bulked up significantly
since last year. Also, as
usual, they can curb West
Port's physical stature if the
spread offense can move the
chains. Like their previous
four games, this game will be
another test for a blossoming
program. The test this time
will be to win as a strong
favorite and to see if they are
ready to take the next step in
controlling their own destiny
after seizing control of the
district race.
Other games:
Bronson (1-6) vs. Trenton
(1-6)
2005 score: Trenton 40
Bronson 14
Young and inexperienced,
but hard working and
dedicated are the words
Coach Brochetti has been
using to describe his team.
After their first win of the
season, the Eagles seemed
primed to continue to take the
appropriate steps and build
on that night. In winning
that game, the team showed
maturity, talent and a knack
for overcoming mistakes.
However, for everything
that went right against St.
John's, everything has gone
just as wrong as the Eagles
have tried to improve during
the most difficult part of their
schedule. With injuries and
suspensions compounded
their difficulties, they have
fallen by a combined score of
J 63-0, which included a,57-0
loss at the hands of the state's
number one ranked class 1A
team last week, Lafayette.
The Eagles get a much


needed reprieve against
Trenton this week. They are
in the middle of a one win
season. If the Eagles play a
football game emphasizing
the basics of the sport;
controlling the clock and
field possession, like they did
against St. John's they might
be able to pick up their second
win of the season.
However, even though
Trenton has only one win,
they are a team not far from a
winning season as they have
lost two games by one point
and three by nine points 'or
less. The Eagles will play
hard and try their best and
that might be the difference
as this will probably the last
chance they have to win their
second game of the year.
Newberry (4-3) vs.
Chiefland (1-5)
2005 score: Newberry 27
Chiefland 14
Coach Bobby Rast has a
hard working and committed
crew, ifnotthe most physically
endowed team. After taking
the first step last week in
defeating Crescent City,
things seemed to be moving
forward. However, they ran
into a team that has shown
dramatic improvement since
the beginning of the season
and played as if they were on
a mission from the football
gods in P.K. Yonge.
As is often the case with
young teams transitioning
to a new coach, that loss
might have had more of a
psychological effects on
the Indians than physical
problems. While the victory
was far from -beautiful,
the Indians lessened their
turnovers and made several
big plays at critical times
in defeating Crescent City.
,However, agalnt P.I., Yonge


neither happened as they
seemed to be outmanned and
lacked the skill level of their
opponent.
Playing against Newberry
this week, they will face
another team that has shown
dramatic improvement in
recent weeks as they have
already doubled their win
total from a year ago and are
competing against P.K. Yonge
for the district's second
playoff berth. With such a
lopsided loss, it is possible
for the team's mental state to
be less than what it should be '
and that could be disastrous:
for the Indians.
On the other hand,
Chiefland is capable ofmaking
big plays to keep themselves
in games. Winning this game
and matching last year's win
total of two is more a stronger
likelihood against Newberry
than most of the teams the
Indians have played this year.
It will require consistent play
from The I-formation attack
that Coach Rast brought with
him. While far from the final
product, against Crescent
City it was effective and had
its moments of productivity
when the Indians didn't
turnover the ball. A second ?
week with the same result
and the Indians' might claim
another victory.

Wave sweeps over Indians


BY NEAL FISHER
SPORTS WRITER
P.K. Yonge celebrated
homecoming Friday with a
convincing 43-0 win over
Chiefland.
The Blue Wave (3-4, 1-1
district) has won three of its
last four games to stay in the
playoff hunt after having an
undesirable beginning to the
season.
P.K. Yonge was outscored
211-45 combined by its
first six opponents. After
last week's hard-fought 3-
0 overtime victory against
Fort White, the Blue Wave is
playing the way head coach
John Clifford expected.
"The beginning of our
schedule was tough," Clifford
said. "I had to convince them
they were a good football
team when we've got it all
together."
P.K. Yonge's first three
games were against opponents
who came into this week
boasting a 16-3 record. Then
the Blue Wave played tough
against undefeated Ocala
Trinity Christian two weeks
ago, losing 34-24.
"Those teams we played in
the beginning, they prepared
us for district," running
back Mike Perry said. "Now
sometimes we feel it's a
pushover."
Coming into a game that
began a three-week stretch


of District 4-2B games, the
Blue Wave wanted to prove
its pride was still intact. And
they didn't waste time doing
it.
After Chiefland's opening
possession ended in a three
and out, running back Dre
Maddox returned the ensuing
punt 55 yards down the
sideline for a touchdown.
Maddox finished the game
with 129 all-purpose yards
and two touchdowns.
"We don't even need to
design anything for him
(Maddox)," Clifford said.
Maddox added a safety
to start the second quarter,
sacking Indians quarterback
Daniel Galpin in the end
zone.
With under a minute left
in the first half, Perry sacked

IHoney


Galpin once, then recovered a
fumble in the end zone for a
touchdown the next play.
Galpin finished the game
6-of-20 for just 32 yards
passing and an interception.
Chiefland (1-6, 0-3) didn't
manage a first down until the
final play of the first half and
had nine penalties, four of
them delay of game.
The Indians had only 10
plays in Blue Wave territory.
Both drives ended in a
turnover on downs
After scoring just six points
in its first three games, P.K.
Yonge has now scored 98
points in its last four games.
"It's the seniors. On this
team, all the seniors show
how to bring it," Perry said.
"And we just follow."

buddy; we are friends forever. I gave him a cake the last time
I baked, but I knew he would rather have a jellyroll!
My sister came for a while yesterday to see if I was ok.
That's one way to make her visit huh?
Well I do believe I've "Rambled" enough so I'll shut up,

something worthwhile done. So until next week take care,

Hospital opposition will present side at hearing


To the editor:
The Tri County Hospital
Certificate of Need applica-
tion and letters of support
were filed Wednesday, Oct.
18.
Alan.Bird, administrator,
Nature Coast Hospital, Wil-
liston, has opposed the hos-
pital. A public hearing will
be held at the Shriners Hall,
Fanning Springs on Tuesday,
Oct. 31. Mr. Bird will give
his reasons why the hospital
should not be approved.
This hearing will serve as
an opportunity for citizens,
public officials, business
leaders and others to voice
their opinions as to why the
state should approve the
hospital. The public hear-
ing will be moderated by the
Regional Health Planning
Council.
The council will hear testi-
mony, accept letters, docu-
ment and record the meet-
ing and ultimately forward
the transcript to the state. I
strongly encourage every
one to attend this meeting.
This will be your opportu-
nity to publicly demonstrate
support for the hospital. You
may also submit additional
letters of support at that time.
In behalf of Ameris


Health Systems, LLC, the
applicant for Tri County
Hospital, I wish to thank ev-
eryone in the tri-county areas
for their support.
Thank you to the contrib-
utors for your help with the
cost of filing the application.
Thank you to those who
took time off from your busy
schedules to visit Ameris'
hospitals located in Phenix
City, Ala. and Valdosta, Ga.;
and those who accompanied
me to Tallahassee to meet
with officials at The Agency
on Health Care Administra-
tion and those who wrote


letters of support.
The state has been made
very aware that the residents
of of Dixie, Levy and Gil-
christ counties are in serious
need of a full service hos-
pital and that Ameris is the
best provider specializing in
rural hospitals and its ability
to recruit physicians.
On Friday, Dec. 15, the
state will render a decision.
We respectfully hope that the
hospital will be approved.
What a Christmas present!

Vote makes us responsible
To the editor:
Sometime ago a very intelligent man said, "We can always
vote out bad government officials, but we cannot vote out
big businessmen."
I would like to say that whenever we elect the wrong
people to run this country we are responsible for the hard-
ship and suffering of every man, woman and child and let's
not forget our veterans.

needs of the businesses. We anticipate 525 new jobs overall
with 30 or more businesses to make application for the zone
wage credit.
Benchmark: Workforce reports, utility reports, business
survey results.

Goal #3 Busness retention, expansion, and location into the
Enterprise Zone; 30 affected businesses in three (3) years.
Benchmark: Monitoring of municipality utility reports,
municipality occupational licenses, leases on compatibly used
property, change of zoning requests for compatible zoning
usage, Florida Enterprise Zone report to track those businesses
requesting zone wage credit, and surveys [workforce, grants,
etc].

Goal #4 -Affordable Housing Units -construct and/or revitalize

BY CASSIE JOURNIGAN
STAFF WRITER
An accident involving a Levy County school bus and a
privately owned pickup truck occurred Oct. 11, resulting in
one fatality.
The driver of the pickup truck was pronounced dead at the
scene by Levy County Emergency Medical Services.

struck the bus on its left front.
The accident occurred approximately seven miles south

BES learns

from mud
BY PAM DARTY
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL
Bronson Elementary
School fifth graders had no
idea how much fun they were
going to have at the Lower
Suwannee National Wildlife
Refuge, even half way into
the field trip. Students had
been studying the scientific
method, but never expected
to talk about it as it related to
the first.people living on the
Gulf thousands of years ago,
nor were they expecting the
mud.
Most had never seen an
ancient Indian mound, so the
excitement of seeing the mil-
lions and millions of mollusk
shells exposed on the mound's
sunniest side spurred many
questions about the kids who
had lived there so many thou-
sands of years ago.
They leaned that the biodi-
versity of the salt marsh drew
humans as well as birds, deer,
fish, manatee, sea turtles, fox,
and the miniscule critters that
live in the mud.
When the ranger said their
next assignment was to get
into the water and dig in the
mud, screams of glee rose
from the 40 fifth-graders.
They were given shovels,
sieves and nets of all sizes.
Each team was to discover
what marine animals live in
the mud of the salt marsh and
report their findings. After-
ward, they observed mod-
els of waterbirds' bills and
studied how each feeds on
the tasty critters the students
found in the muddy marsh.
As the ranger concluded
the day's lesson, a bald eagle,
the mascot of their school
soared across the sky. Cheers
from the fifth grade Bronson
Eagles could be heard for
miles around.
If you want to get your
students involved in the out-
door classroom of the Lower

Dr. Joe Knetsch, noted
Florida historian, will be on
hand at the Cedar Key His-
torical Society Museum
on Saturday, Oct. r --
21 from 1-4 p.m.

book. The book en-
titled, Faces on the

Surveyors and De-
velopers in the 19tli
Century, recounts
much of the early be-
ginnings of Florida.
Published by and available

ing will give the people of our
area the opportunity to get an
autographed copy directly
from the author. All proceeds
from the sale of the book go
back into the FHS Press to
help publish other books on
Florida history.
Knetsch has published
more than 100 articles and
presented more than 130 pa-
pers on the history of Florida.


Also available at the book
signing will be the 2003 pub-
lication by Knetsch entitled
Florida's Seminole
fWars, 1817-1858.
As sitting historian
for the Board of Trust-
ees of the Internal Im-
Sprovement Trust Fund
(the governor and
cabinet), Knetsch is
often called to give
..auas^ expert witness testi-
mony involving land
titles and navigable waterway
issues.
Both of these books would

ROSS HARDWARE at its first location, 1909-1912, at what is now Main Street
and NE First Avenue in Williston.

Family business a way of Levy County life


WILLISTON-In 1909 James Leroy Ross
moved to Levy County and established a
hardware store in Williston at the corer of
what is now Main Street and NE First Avenue.
Three years later he moved Ross Hardware to
Noble Avenue, where it would remain until it
closed in August 2003.
Jim added to his business a little at a time,
using an addition as rental property before using
it for part of his store. Jim thought creatively as
he built his business. It is likely that he was
instrumental in having the following article
appear in The Levy County Times-Democrat,
under the headline "Farming With Dynamite."
Come and learn the modern, quick,
cheap and safe way to use the giant
force of dynamite to remove stumps,
boulders, plant trees and dig ditches.
You can break up subsoil and make old
farms produce big crops. There will be
a Red Cross Dynamite demonstration


on the farm of F.T. Herring, located
one mile just west of Williston on
the morning of January 27 [1912],
10 A. M. Red Cross Dynamite is sold
by J. L. Ross Hardware Company.

There have been many such family
businesses from the earliest years of Levy
County. Will your family business be in the
book?
Photographs and memories are now being
collected for the new book: Levy County:
Voices From the Past, by Drollene P. Brown.
Make sure your memories and those of
others in your family will be included.
Send them to Levy Book, P.O. Box 402,

BY CAROLYN RISNER
MANAGING EDITOR
BRONSON-Tuesday's
meeting of the Levy County
Board of County Commis-
sioners concluded with the
board at odds on policy.
Whenr Commissioner Sam-
my Yearty asked the board to
hear an item not on the agen-
da, Chairwoman Nancy Bell
asked if it involved money, a
large sum of money..
After Yearty said it was a
large sum to him, Bell said
she was opposed to hearing
the item and asked that it
placed on the Nov. 7 agenda.
Yearty explained it was
a time-sensitive issue but
Bell stood firm, adding if the
board was not unanimous on
non-agenda items, the matter
could not be heard.
Commissioner Danny Ste-
vens stressed a number of
times the board could hear
the matter, but any action
would be a separate issue.
Commissioner Lilly Rooks
agreed. "If it affects my con-
stituents, I'd like to hear it."
Bell continued to oppose


Yearty's motion. "Why have
a policy if we hear every-
thing?" Bell asked.
Yearty, Rooks and Stevens
asked what the policy was
and Bell repeated an item not
on the agenda had to have a
unanimous vote to be heard.
Yearty, the senior member
of the commission, said he
had not seen it and if it's in
there, he wanted it worked
on.
Even the policy listed in
the front of the commission's
meeting packet was vague,
but Bell said she had seen it.
The chairwoman then con-
ceded to the other three com-
missioners and the item was
heard.
The building that houses
the Levy Association of Re-
tarded Citizens (LARC) is in
need of a new roof and it will
have to borrow money for the
repairs.
Yearty asked that the board
give LARC $15,000 toward
the repairs, "They're citizens
of Levy County," he said,
"and they aren't as fortunate
as we are."


The board agreed unani-
mously to honor Yearty's mo-
tion and Rooks' second.
(Editor's Note: At press -time
Tuesday, the Levy County Jour-
nal was able to find a reference
to the policy Bell mentioned
The January 2001 min-
utes read in part: "Mrs. Susan
Haines presented an outline rec-
ommending cut offtimesfJr sub-
mission of all information to be
presented by Department Heads;
include an ADA disclaimer; cut
off date for items requiring re-
search and review; sign in form
for the public; cut off date for
public presentations; adjust cut
off dates to allow for holidays;
items presented but not placed
on the agenda would require a
unanimous vote to consider the
item at the current meeting and
have all commissioner's names
and districts listed. "

County officials were still
researching to see when the
recommendation was voted
on.
Yearty said Tuesday night
that if, indeed, it is policy, he
will work to change it.


Flu vaccine ample this year


BY CASSIE JOURNIGAN
STAFF WRITER
CHIEFLAND-Monday's.
shot clinic sponsored by
Chiefland's VFW Post is
proof that flu vaccinations
are plentiful this year.
Approximately 80 people
showed up to ward off the
winter round of influenza.
Most also took advantage of
the tetanus and pneumonia
shdts offered.
Most people find shots, to
be at least mildly painful. But
what lies beyond that sharp
little needle? According to the
Centers for Disease Control-
(CDC) website, each vaccine
contains three killed influenza
viruses. The three are chosen
by epidemiologists to ward
off the expected strains for
that year. The shot works by
causing your body to build
antibodies against the illness
about two weeks after you are
injected. Most flu shot clinics
are offered during October
or November to give people
time to build those antibodies
before flu season actually
begins.
The CDC website
recommends that people
who are high risk for flu
complications get vaccinated
each year. These include
children between the ages of
six months and five years,
pregnant women, people 50

and older, those with chronic
medical conditions, and
those who live in long-term
care facilities. Also, health
care workers should be
vaccinated.
Each year 5 to 20 percent
of the population gets the flu.
Whether this year will be a
year of prevalent flu activity
is anybody's guess.
Chris Hunt, clinical
director with Chiefland
Medical Center, said that
last year brought fewer cases
than expected. The smaller
caseload coincided with
a second year of flu sh6ti
shortage.


"We didn't receive any flu
vaccine at all last year and
none the year before," Hunt
said.
She said the medical
center is expecting this year's
shipment to arrive later this
week, and that there should
be plenty to go around. "Of
course we will offer it on a
first-come, first-served basis,"
she said. "We recommend
it for high risk patients,
pediatrics and adults over the
age of 65."
Hunt said the office has
seen no cases of flu yet this
year.

RITA SENSBACH WAS among the first in line to
receive her flu vaccine. The Chiefland VFW Post and
Ladies' Auxiliary sponsored the clinic.

CES students jumpfor new equipment


Chiefland Elementary School kids jumped for joy-and
physical education equipment-in spite of the heat last Thurs-
day.
"The kids collect donations and we put the money into bats,
balls, even basketball goalposts," said physical education
teacher Robin Hardee. "And the kids who bring in the most
money get prizes. The top money-earners this year, Cheyanne' /
Walker, Kayla Edmonds and Nicole Jenkins, won bicycles. '
Other kids win t-shirts, volleyballs or footballs.
"Every one of the kids is actually a winner, because they all
get to play with all the new equipment," she added.
The annual fund-raiser has been going on for about 15
years, according to Coach Wendell Corbin. Each class jumps
for 30 minutes, with the students taking turns at the rope.
This year, the kids collected $5,780. "We hope to put a roof
over the concession area next to the track. That way people
can set up for special events and be shaded."
Coach Kyle Parnell and music teacher Roxanne Simpson '
also contributed to the jump.


EVEN WHILE WAITING their turn at the ropes,
Chiefland Elementary School students jumped,
hopped and skipped.

Before hiring a

contractor
No matter if you are plan-
ning a major home improve-
ment project or simply trying
to fix things around the house,
finding the right contractor is
;crucial. Here are tips to help:
Get -at least three esti-
:mates for your project.
Ask friends and neigh-
bors for referrals, and avoid
choosing blindly from direc-
tory services "that can include
fly-by-night companies' or
those that change names to
dodge legal problems.
Ask for references and
check them.
Request certificates of in-
surance. A contractor should
have three types of coverage:
general liability, workman's
compensation, and auto in-
surance.
Look for an established
contractor who's been in
business for years. Chances
are he will be there to make
good on his warranty.
Examine the warranty.
How long is it in effect and
what does it cover specifi-
cally?
Don't decide solely on
price. If one bid is much low-
er, examine the cost of mate-
rials as they could be of infe-
rior quality.
Look for designations
:which indicate a higher de-
gree of professionalism.
*Follow your instincts.

a quilt when I first get start-
ed," she said.
Vague beginnings or
not, her use of color and
tiny, careful stitches have
garnered Siegel numerous
awards. The American Quil-
ters Society honored her with
placement in their top 24 list.
That group includes well-
known quilters Ginny Byers
and "quilt-in-a-day" creator
Eleanor Burns.
Most of the shows she
chooses as venues for her
work are within driving dis-
tance. Of showing her quilts
in distant areas she says,
"It's like packing off your
children to go to camp. You
don't know what kind of
shape they'll come back in."
Besides her membership
in Creative Quilts of Citrus
County, Siegel belongs to the
National Applique Society
and the West Pasco Quilt
Guild which she helped
found. "We began this group
20 years ago, and now we
have 300 members. I'm the
only founder left. The oth-


ers have moved or passed
away."
Siegel leads a weekly
group of beginning quilters


in Yankeetown and teaches
occasional classes at the Su-
wannee Valley Quilt Shop
in Trenton. Her work will

those who vote on them-the
five school board members,
the county commissioners,
the city council and the'water
management board."
Local real estate agent Jen-
nie Pinto said, "Guess what
folks-we is the government.
We need to start doing for
ourselves... Who's mandat-
ing that we need three or four
more ambulances? We want
new property taxes. They are
unlivable right now."
Williston real estate agent
Kathleen Lowyns said, "I've
been involved in movements
by the public, and believe me,
they do sit around and count
their votes... Make your
voice heard... We need to
show up en masse...We need
to count the revenue...We
need to watch their spending
as well."
Tax bills were not the
only papers roasted-Willis-
ton city commissioner Jerry
Robertson brought along the
county budget. After reading
line items from the budget he
asked, "Would you like to see
the budget burned?" before
throwing the document to the
flames. Robertson was the
only politician who attended
the event.
