Established 1881 SUMTER COUNTY VOLUME 121 NUMBER 19 35 'CENTS INSIDE Calendar ............ 10 Church ...............6 Obituaries ............6 Police Report ......... .3 Tidbits .............. 11 THURSDAY, MAY 12, 20051 County agrees to garbage levy for residents MARTIN STEELE Times Correspondent Sumter County Commis- sioners appeared to have been setting a course of action late last month that would soon lead to county property owners paying an annual fee for disposal of their garbage or solid waste. But, the board on Tuesday was again considering one of its decisions at the request of County Attorney Randall Thornton. This time the commission- ers approved a "commitment" to establishing solid waste assessments. It was approved unanimously. "I thought it was a momen- tous night" with the series of actions approved by the board at its last meeting, Thornton said. But, it appeared that there was not a clear decision for the county to move toward "flow control" for solid waste. That was one of the steps recommended on April 26 by Thornton with the apparent strong support of the county's solid waste consultant, Mitch Kessler. He also asked the board to authorize him and Kessler to prepare a "bid package" that will be used to get private ven- dors to compete for hauling away the solid waste that remains after the county's recycling effort. Thornton said some might view the stand on assessment to be "putting the cart before the horse," but argued that it's not the case. For the county's legal con- sultants to prepare the assess- ment there has to be some measure to insure that the vol- ume of garbage will be coming in to warrant the investment in facilities, according to -nton and Kessler. :hout flow control, there is no solution to our problem," Thornton said.

But some residents got a big scare about 12:30 p.m. when they reported a tornado touched down on County Roads 426B and 434.

Assistant State Attorney Conrad Juergensmeyer said it has not yet been decided if the state will place charges on the man who was originally arrested, Mack Foster Gardner. He said they are going back over the case to decide what the next move will be, if any. "It was a very emotional trial," he said. "We certainly want the responsi- ble (party) to be punished."

Mining group seeks delay in expansion request BOB REICHMAN Editor Florida Crushed Stone has submitted a letter to the coun- ty asking that .its request to expand its lime rock mining operations near Center Hill be tabled until June. The company requested a conditional use permit that would allow expansion of mining operations on about 395 acres just west of the Center Hill city limits. Florida Crushed Stone is seeking the delay so addition- al information can be collect- ed for county staff. The permit request was scheduled to be considered by the county Zoning and Adjustment Board at its meet- ing on Monday, May 16. The board meets at 6:30 p.m. on the third floor of the Sumter County Courthouse. Instead, the board will be considering Florida Crushed Stone's request to table the issue until the board meets again in June. That meeting would be held on Monday, June 20.

Ryan Smith, 23, ended up being arrested on drug charges during his.visit. Smith was arrested for . smuggling marijuana into a prison. He was placed in the Sumter County Detention Center with bond set at $5,000. Smith was, visiting inside the prison Saturday morning when an officer conducted a security check in the north parking lot of the facility, according to sheriff's Lt. Bobby Caruthers. The officer noticed that a side door on Smith's vehicle was unsecured, Caruthers said. "When she opened it to secure the door, she could smell what she believed could be marijuana." The officer notified her supervisor and then the sher- iff's department was called, Caruthers said. A drug-detecting canine and its handler were then called to go over the vehicle, he said. "The dog did alert to the presence of illegal narcotics and a search was per- formed," Caruthers said. Two cigarettes, which later tested positive for marijua- na, were, discovered inside the vehicle, he said.. Because Smith had the illegal substance on state property, he was arrested on the smuggling charge, Caruthers said. Friday, May 6 Taninja Knight, 23, Wildwood, was arrested for child neglect.

The banquet is not only an opportunity to honor FFA members, but serves as an event' to wind up the year's activities, and a time for alumni to meet. Although there were many awards and achievements' recognized, two SSHS Seniors stood out enough to be rewarded with scholar- ships. Brittany Wade received the A.W. and Nellie Lee Scholarship, worth $750. for her achievements in FFA. A member since the Seventh grade. Wade also took the Star in Agribusiness Award. She said she plans to major in Equine Science and. minor in accounting, hoping to eventu- ally become a professional horse judge.

Gerry Mulligan General Manager/Sales Manager .. Alan Place "Copyrighted Material Syndicated Content Available from Commercial News Providers" 204 E. McCollum Ave. Bushnell, FL 33513 Member Florida Press Association Our VOICE Background checks needed for all workers at schools Background screenings are required by law for regular employees of public schools in Florida but not all of those working on school property fit into that category. There are innumerable other workers inischools in the county and around the state who slip through the ' cracks in our laws because they are not employed by the School Board and are ,j not required to be screened. The Sumter County School Board is consider- ing making background Alu checks mandatory for con- MI tiact workers, those not - employed by the School Board but work on school property. This includes construction. workers and others, who should not have con- tact with children. But that fact and the fencing that divides construction areas from children would not do rnuch to stop someone intent on hurt- itg a child. 1Currently, there is construction gbing on two schools in this district, at Lake Panasoffkee and Bushnell Elementary, and about 60 employees total work on school property for each of the construction projects. At a&given point in the construction of a new building, there could be ten, twenty, thirty workers on each site. In light of recent child abductions and murders in the state, and the sex offender recently caught attempting to report to work on a construction site at Bushnell Elementary, the School Board might consider making background checks mandatory for anyone working on school grounds. ,This is simply using common sense. Since individual School Boards make their own rules, there is nothing preventing ours from start-. ing right now, except being hassled' with yet more background checks, .the possibility of offending someone who doesn't wish to be screened, and A i the extra cost involved. One might also argue that workers are constant- ly supervised and the chances of one coming in contact with a student are unlikely. , In dealing with this sub- _ ject, we're reminded of 0 John Evander Couey, who reportedly confessed to the murder of Jessica Lunsford, a Homosassa 9- year-old. It was reported in the news that at differ- en t times he worked at a construction site at her elementary school and another Florida school. ANDA Couey was also her neigh- IMS bor, so it's hard to say if his -- working at the school had anything to do with her kidnap and murder. Possibly it's just a coincidence, but it's never a coinci- dence when child molesters choose to work in places where there are children. If there had been a back- ground check performed, maybe he could have been arrested for not reg- istering as a sex offender where he was living. and he could have been sent to prison. If even the remotest chance exists that, in working on school property, a sex offender could gain access to a child; there are no legitimate reasons for not looking into the histories of these people.. Our School Board's job is to edu- cate children in the safest environ- ment possible, and if adults working on school property are not thorough- ly screened, the job isn't getting done. Our district must to do everything possible to protect Sumter's chil- dren, and it is our opinion this ven- ture is one worth pursuing without hesitation. It has now been almost four weeks .since the sex offender was caught en route to Bushnell Elementary, and we still don't know the histories of other workers continuing to 'occupy school grounds nearly every day.

YourI Displeased with Center Hill stories I am writing you in response to your column "Center Hill website may be good idea," and to Ms. Mims and -her column, "Center Hill tour doesn't look good." I am, and, have been a comfortable and happy, resident of Center Hill for approximately three years now. I feel that the "exception" to your own set of rules to not publish or promote anything that is provided by an anonymous source was a mistake, and reflects poor judg- ment in regards to this topic. It saddens me that a group of "concerned".citizens feel that they cannot put their names on any- thing. I do understand anonymity, however, how can someone who decides to remain anonymous even attempt to resolve any issues) that they may have with city officials? It seems as if this group would rather tongue lash city officials via placing unsigned flyers throughout the town than stand up and voice their concerns in person during an appropriate meeting. It also saddens me that this group obviously has some type of financial assistance, as one week- end professionally printed signs were scattered through the city and various areas of the county. Is this financial backing being put to the best use? This group is quick to say that they are the victims of city retaliation because their signs are being taken down. However,- their rights are not being violated, as it is they who are actually in violation. In Chapter 14 of the Center Hill Code, "Sign Regulations:" it shall be unlawful for any person to erect, construct, enlarge, or con- vert any sign in the City, or cause the same to be done, without first obtaining a Sign Permit for each such sign from the City Clerk as required by this Chapter. The Code continues, Application for a permit shall be made to the City Clerk's office upon a form provided by that office and shall be accompanied by such information as may be required to assure compliance with all appropriate laws and reg- ulations of the City including: 1) Name and address of the owner of the sign and owner of the premis- es where the sign is located." I, for one. question the motives of a group who fight to remain anonymous. Whose concerns are they really representing?, As far as the "controversial" tour of the cement plant in Suwannee County, what really is the underlying problem? Even if there are no concrete plans for the cement plant, is it wrong for city officials to better educate them- selves on a topic which could affect the city they are elected to be concerned about? As Ms. Mims grudgingly admits, "officials else- where take tours of different things all the time." Perhaps a member or members of the Concerned Citizens of Center Hill should have also attended the tour, which was open to the public and discussed at an advertised, open town meeting. Growth is coming closer and closer to our City everyday whether we want it to or not When did positive pre-planning become a bad thing? Just in case you are interested, those bright orange signs attached to fence posts heading out of Center Hill' toward Beville's Corner indicate the desire to re- zone that area for commercial use. Perhaps individuals should be paying as close attention to pro- posed zoning changes as they do to educational trips of council mem- bers. Ms. Minis ought to research her topic more thoroughly before she writes a one-sided inflamma- tory article. I am thankful that Center Hill has council members who are dedicated to researching impor- tant issues, and who keep the bet- terment of Center Hill in their hearts and minds. Thank you for allowing me to express my opin- ion. !H Tuxbury Center Hill Resident SeniorADVOCATh e SUVs fit through the loopholes S sometime in January 2004, a reader wanted to know why, as I advocate for the aging and elderly, that I have never writ- ten about the exact fig- ures of the Medicare prescription plan.

I informed the reader. Case closed. The only reason that I write about this at this time is because this column has given more ink to this law than any other column that I am aware .of. You could drive SUVs through the holes and loopholes of this law. I don't like this law. It was hasti- ly written. Its five months of nego- tiations and subsequent 'November 2003 vote did not signif- I ( icantly change the law or its inten- tions the beginning of a govern- ment-subsidized, private-indus- try-run health-care delivery sys- tem. Already, without any major laws, Health and Human Services (HHS) A Director Michael 0. Leavitt and a number of states intend to pass the S^ Medicaid program along to the private sector, .. notably health mainte- nance organizations (HMOs). The Medicare. PN Privatization, IAN Improvement and Prescription Drug Act of 2003-(MMA) is, Public Law 108-173, if you choose to read it And if you do, you will be one up on 60 percent of the members of the United States Congress, who (my belief) never read it MMA is also formulated to drive some of the 88 percent of Medicare beneficiaries into these same privately held, for-profit insurers. MMA allowed its new plan "Me'dicare Advantage," or Part C of Medicare to be marketed in late 2004 and 2005; it has at this very early point proven to cost more than traditional Medicare. The entire MMA law was to cost $395 billion. This includes an initial, two- year increase to physicians - agreeably slight, but still a cost factor, an increase in payment for hospitals, subsidies to corporate America that continue to provide prescriptions to their retirees, subsidies to HMOs and other types of insurance plans, hundreds of millions of dollars in marketing. and more, and, yes, let us not for- get the "sizzle" of the entire law, prescription drug benefits. However, it is now admitted by the administration that during the next 10 years just the prescription benefit will cost $730 billion. And I don't buy this figure either. The point of my column is sim- ple. If you can't read it weekly, this is understandable. But get your questions and con- cerns together, and get in touch with me. I have said it before, and I shall say it again: This is the worst social domestic law of my lifetime. Don't write to me in February 2007, and ask, "Dan, why didn't you tell us?" Also, I am so tired of members of Congress, who previously sat in various state senates, who repre- sent good, hard-working folks now in need, especially for Medicaid, and neither the member nor his or her staff assist those folks. Cut the nonsense. You truly don't know anyone in the state, so it is only about self-aggrandize- ment If the shoe fits, throw it out and leave office.

SUMTER COUNTY (FL) TIMES, THURSDAY, MAY 12, 2005, PAGE 5 Citizens bring concerns to Center Hill AMANDA MIMS Staff Writer Citizens attending a recent Center Hill City Council meeting questioned council members about a controversial trip two of the board members took to a cement plant in Suwannee County. People from both inside and out- side the city limits filled the meet- ing room on Tuesday, May 3, to dis- cuss recent behavior of city offi- cials in an area that seems to be increasingly desirable to develop- ers and businesses. Several of those at the meeting said they felt they weren't given ample information about the tour or about the reasons why two coun- cil members attended, which made some uneasy. The city says the com- pany has not made any proposals to the city and does not plan to come into the city limits. "I am in no way going to promote this business one way or another until it's brought to the council," said Elsie Ramsey, one of the two council members who went on the tour. She told those at the meeting that she hasn't discussed it with Councilman Jimmy Smith, who also attended, or anyone else. Smith said proposals by the con- crete company have gone to the county, and the property of interest is on County Road 469 in Center Hill outside the city limits. "It'll be very little impact if any- thing," he said. He said he believes the company was trying to get a sense of how the community would react to such a business coming in. "I can't talk for everybody," he said. But the council's explanation of the tour was met with more ques- tions. Although council members said the tour was open to the public and made known by the city, Paul Mazak disagreed. "I didn't know it was happening to be able to go," he said. "I'd have loved to go on the tour. I have a mining business just like (the one in) Center Hill." Mazak, owner of Florida Mining Corporation, said his concern is that he wants everyone in the coun- ty to be treated fairly He told the council he believed the company is trying to get around county restric- tions by annexing into the city. Others chimed in citing similar instances with a proposed RV park and housing development. To that, City Attorney Larry Taylor asked, "Wouldn't you go somewhere where you could do what you wanted to do?" But what mattered to residents was not the welfare of incoming businesses and developments, but rather whether city officials are acting according to the wishes of the people. "People are coming to you with unwanted projects," said Ron Slay, who owns Florida Fish Farms,' located just outside the city limits. He said the council's stance has been less than firm in regards to projects coming into the city. "That really bothers me," he said. "I'd like you guys, with all do respect, to be leaders, not followers with some of these people." Smith said the council has been looking at what these projects could mean in monetary gains in order to improve the city. "The bottom line, people, is we're trying to do what's in the best interest to the people of our com- munity," Smith said. "We're going to do whatever's necessary to make life good for the people of Center Hill." Medical center prepares for new facility Thomas Langley Medical Center has scheduled a ground- breaking ceremony to launch construction of a new 40,000- square-foot medical facility near the current center in Sumterville. The event is scheduled for 6 p.m. on Thursday, May 12. "We want everyone to help break the ground," said Julie Pacheco, Langley's director of operations. "It's, a community health center and it's for every- one in all the communities." The $6-million facility will eventually replaced the exist- ing medical center on U.S. 301. "This new state-of-the-art building will,be a step in the right direction to help meet the needs of the community," Pacheco said. "It will give us the room to bring on new medical and den- tal staff," she said. "Right now, we don't have anywhere to put them." The proposed facility has been in the works for the past four years, she said. Construction is scheduled to begin shortly after the ground- breaking ceremony and is expected to be completed in about 14 to 16 months. Sumter sex offender found in Lake County AMANDA MIMS Staff Writer A convicted sex offender who absconded from registration with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement was recently found To acc in Lake County, database according to Lt.

Originally from Savannah, Georgia, Frank and Angela attended the same high school and were members of the same church family. After high school, they began to date and were married. They have now been married for 21 years. Since that time, the Simmons' have been a true ministry team. They pio- neered Liberty Deliverance Center in Oak Harbor, Washington where they pas- tored together for 7 years. Since leaving Washington they have served with many ministries across the United States. They were the organiz- ers and leaders of the Bethesda Home for Boys, Choir, youth pastors at The Sanctuary of Savannah, and worship pastors at Living Water Ministries in Kansas City, Missouri. They have 2 CDs; the first, "He's Sweet" was released in 2001 and "Still in Love" came out in 2002. In addition to appearing on Atlanta and Seattle broad- casts of TBN's "Praise the Lord," the Simmons' hosted a weekly broadcast on Savannah's Cable 19. According to Pastor Fred Hooten, "This family has been blessed with a great anointing for ministry and a great testi- mony to the life changing power of relationship with Christ Jesus. Their personal lives are a testimony and their family is a testimony. Frank and Angela were told by doc- tor after doctor that they' would never have children. A miracle took place during prayer while Angela was attending a women's confer- ence in Seattle, Washington. They now have 3 daughters and a son as well as 1 grand- child."

Actually, by the time my husband and I had decided it was time to think about start- ing a family, Alison - Kathleen Kennedy had already begun sprouting. Although I was thrilled at the idea of being pregnant and buying baby .a clothes and deco- rating a nursery, I 4' A hadn't fully . thought the whole - motherhood thing NAi through. My KEN thoughts stopped just before the giv- ing birth part of the process. The truth is, I had never really wanted to be a mother. I've always liked kids, but from a distance. When I gave birth to Alison and the nurse gave her to me to take home and keep, I panicked. I could- n't nurse her because I didn't know how, and didn't think to ask anybody to teach me. I could dress her only because I'd Th had Barbie dolls and liked to go shopping. w But one time I took al her outside in winter - in northern Maine - without putting a hat on her and someone yelled at me. And then a month later, when we took her to California to visit my family, I put a hat on her. However, it was 90 degrees out, and another person yelled at me because Alison was sweaty. I didn't know what I was" doing then, and after 28-1/2 years, I still don't know. Basically, my theory of moth- erhood has been to wing it,' pray real hard and hope my daughters will one day for- give me. Last week, I asked a few friends about their Mother's Day thoughts. Carol Satterly's reply touched me. She said she knew at a young age that God had made her to be a mother. "Part of that desire must have been an iN outflow of being loved so well by my own mother who showed patience and mercy to me beyond measure," she said. - Carol didn't have her first child until she was in her 30s. "I think the waiting helped me appreci- ate being a mother even more," she said. "Maggie was born on a Thursday in early May, but j^ j her second birth- Sday was the sweet- ICY est celebration I IEDY can remember. I was expecting our second child, enthralled with our first, and sharing it all with my mother, who was also there. "There was a glow to my mom that was different that day ... I think she was enjoy- ing seeing me, her daughter, as a mother. The gifts that day were from God for e'truth is, I had never rea wanted to be a mother. I'v Ways liked kids, butfrom distance. granting the multi-genera- tional celebration of mother- hood. My mom died two years ago, so today I appreciate this memory even more." Carol said she hopes her own children will say of her that she loved them well and that her daughters would want to be mothers, too. "Someday they will see my failures," she said, "but know that I admitted them and trusted God for my strength." When I think of my own two daughters, I thank God for his mercy in their lives. I remember well yelling at them to leave me alone as I sat writing a book on mother- hood. I served them tater tots and grated cheese and called it "dinner." I taught them that shop- ping is a recreational sport I passed on my control, freakish tendencies and my propensity to "expect the worst and you'll never be dis- appointed." But (I hope) I've also passed on to them my rock- solid belief that God's grace is sufficient for every trial, and that difficulties are opportunities to emerge stronger on the other side. From me they've learned to enjoy life's absurdities and to think of minor irritations - throwing your keys in the trash or running out of gas in a cauliflower field as "faith adventures." They've seen me laugh until I cry and cry until I. laugh. They've seen me shake my fist toward heaven and they've seen me on my knees in prayer. Some say daughters eventually turn into their mothers. I don't ily know if that's true or not e Some also say there's a no more complicated relationship than the one between a mother and daughter. That, I agree with. All in all, I wouldn't trade any of the worry and frustration, the sorrow and the unbridled joy I've experi- enced these past 28-1/2 years. So, thank you Alison and Laura for making my life sur- prisingly rich. Now for old times' sake: Go clean your rooms.

Planning a i kiAei ii~ iii LIII UI month Sumter County Health Department is recognizing May as National Blood Pressure Education Month, with two free blood pressure screenings and diabetes and cholesterol activities. Blood pressure screenings will be at the St. Lawrence Catholic Church Food Bank on the fol- lowing dates: Friday, May 13 - 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Friday, May 27 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Groups throughout the coun- try are joining together to encourage all Americans to prevent and control high-blood pressure, which affects more than 65 million Americans and leads to more than 1 million heart attacks, strokes, and heart failure cases in the U.S. each year. According to Dr. Giri Padmanabh, Director of the Sumter County Health Department, "High blood pres- sure is a significant and grow- ing public health problem among our community, and National High Blood Pressure Education Month provides a special opportunity to increase awareness of the bur- den it places on all of us. We have learned a -great deal about the effects of blood pres- sure abnormalities on health. It has been called the silent killer because it often gives no clue that it is causing major health problems." Its economic cost to the Nation exceeds $100 billion each year. According to the lat- est County Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), 33.1 percent of the adult Sumter County popula- tion has been told by a health professional that they are at risk of or have high blood pres- sure. National High Blood Pressure Education Month is an annual event coordinated by the National High Blood Pressure Program at the National Heart,. Lung and Blood Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health. If you have any questions or would like more information about this program, please contact Tom O'Brien at the Sumter County Health Department, 352-793-2701 ext. 3017."

A B RIEF LESSON ABOUT Suncoast Schools Federal Credit Union. (And why "free checking" really means free checking.) JPI When it comes to looking out for your money, a lot of banks just aren't making the grade. (Or perhaps you've done the math on your "free checking" account and determined that a service charge here and a service charge there does not equal free.) That being the case, there's no better time to become enlightened about joining a credit union. '% See,'banks exist for one reason:. to return profits to shareholders. At credit unions, profits go right back to members in the form of lower rates on loans, higher earnings on deposits and free and low-fee services. iW2 Consider what you can get at Suncoast: Free checking with no minimum balance or monthly fee. You also get free access to your account at branches. ATMs, bv phone and the internet. We even provide free bill pay. And you'll find friendly, experienced advisors who are committed to treating you the way they like to be treated. 'That includes taking the time to explain things, with straight answers. And you just can't put a price on that. 8 You may be eligible to become a member of , Suncoast.

The USDA, Rural Utilities Service has received an application for financial assistance from the City of Bushnell. The proposed project consists of construction of both water and wastewater infrastructure within the Sumterville Urban Development Area. Specifically, the wastewater project would require construction of approximately 16,500 L.F. of 2", 4", and 6" sanitary sewer force mains with valves, directional drilling, low pressure pump stations and grinder pump stations. All the force mains will be constructed within the public right-of-ways along U.S. 301, C.R. 528, and C.R. 526A in Sumterville. The water,project scope would include construction of two wells, two well pumps, a generator, storage, treatment, and distribution system. The distribution system would consist of approx. 11,100 L.F. of 6", 8", and 10" water main with valves, fire hydrants, directional drillings and fittings. All the water mains will be constructed within the public right-of-ways along'U.S. 301, C.R. 528, C.R. 526Aand C.R. 526 in Sumterville. As required by the National Environmental Policy Act, the Rural Utilities Service has assessed the potential environmental effects of the proposed project and has determined that the proposal will not have a significant effect on the human environment and for which an Environment Impact Statement will not be prepared. The basis of this determination is as follows: 1. The infrastructure will primarily be located on existing public right-of-ways. 2. No important farmlands, formally classified lands, floodplains, wetlands, or -coastal areas are affected. 3. No significant impact on wildlife or vegetation exists. 4. The project does not create adverse consequences related to socio-economics, environmental justice, air quality, transportation or noise. 5. No impacts were identified related to cultural issues. Copies of the Environmental Assessment can be reviewed or obtained at the following location: USDA Rural Development 1729 David Walker Drive, Tavares, FL 32778 Telephone: 352-742-7005 For further information contact Ms. Angela Prioleau, USDA Rural1 352-742-7005.

Group receives award The Rebekah Assembly of Florida was chosen as one of five recipients of $1,000 from the Schuyler Colfax Museum Humanitarian Award. The money was divided among the nine districts then to each lodge in their district. Each lodge was to design ways to make their money grow. The Leesburg Lodge #52 chose to raffle tickets for a "cuddly blan- ket" which was, made by Sue Apple, Betty Hale's daughter. The tickets were sold over the past two months by all the mem- bers with a drawing being held on April 9, at the Rebekah Yard Sale at the Lodge. The winner of the "cuddly blanket" was Jim and Kelly Kertz of Lady Lake. The Executive Board of the State Rebekah Assembly had decided that each lodge should donate the monies to a disaster organization that helped out with the hurricane victims. Rebekah Lodge #52, located at 2401 Virginia Drive, Leesburg, chose the Salvation Army Disaster Program to receive the monies .made by their raffle. They continue to help victims of the hurricanes that hit our area this past year.

BV~LEEIUarremamwwgi IKUflIRR1EfhU 0,60 GALLON SET & FILL The City of Bushnell was recently awarded a Florida Municipal Electric Association (FMEA) Safety Award for its continued com- mitment to safety and low incident rate during the past year. For the past 19 years, FMEA has recognized the efforts of Florida's municipally owned utilities to stress worker safe- ty as the No. 1 priority. Utilities are placed into cate- gories according to their total man-hours worked, and rewarded for the most inci- dent-free records. The inci- dence rate used to judge utili- ties is based on the number of work-related reportable injuries or illnesses com- pared to the total number of worker-hours during 2004, as defined by OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The City of Bushnell was recognized for a perfect record with no reported.acci- dents on the job in category A, which is comprised of utilities with up to 24,999 man hours worked. This recognition reflects the City of Bushnell's commitment to protecting workers' safety, while also ensuring reliable electric service to the customers. In an industry where serious injuries and fatalities are inherent, safety training is the best line of defense in pre- venting accidents and saving lives. Awards were presented on April 2 at the FMEA Annual Safety and Florida Lineman's Competition Awards banquet in Tallahassee. The banquet was the culmination of two days of safety workshops and technical field training on var-. ious safety and training issues facing the utility industry. City of Bushnell electric employees receive safety award. Call Today 352-793-2161 pet grooming SnDY'S n GROOfmlnIG DOGS WANTED: All Breeds great and small. \Ve ill bathe and groom them all!

Unfortunately, there was nothing anyone could do about it Track officials did the right thing by red-flagging the race and rescheduling the remain- ing 19 laps of the Late Model feature for the next scheduled Late Model program. Only 11 laps were complete in the race with Herb Neumann Jr. leading the way, but with a 18-car field, and less than half the race in the record books, it was the only fair thing they could Day is an do h e n )ration of the Late Models and passion return on ins have for May 14, the field will d forgiving resume in community. the same running order and complete the 30-lap event They will also run their already-scheduled 30-lap race later in the night's program.

The City will receive a loan of $1,030,000 and a grant of $424,200 for the project.

PAID ADVERTISEMENT SUMMER COUNTY (FL) TIMES, THURSDAY, iVIAY 12, 2005, PAGE 13 PAGE 14, SUMTER COUNTY (FL) TIMES, THURSDAY, MAY 12, 2005 Outdoors uA ADAMS Going to a turkey shoot and remembering If I had to bet, I would ven- ture that turkey shoots have been around just about as long as there have been shotguns here in this land we now S_"" proudly call the r USA. I don't reo remember the first E turkey shoot I ever C went to but it has p been quite some time ago. Anyway, I had the pleasure to attend a traditional turkey shoot sponsored by the folk's who put JAMu on the youth base- ball games in Webster this past Saturday. As with any other youth organization that is not financed by some form of gov- ernment, the games are financed by local businesses and by the dedicated volun- teers who help and keep these much needed programs for our youngsters going by rais- ing money by one unique method or another Tim Knight heads up the" Webster league and good folks like Tim deserve a lot of cred- it because it is no small under- taking to be in charge of any league baseball program. It takes a lot of personal dedica- tion not the mention the' untold hours of volunteered hard work that is necessary to keep these programs running., A week or two back a long- time friend, Horace Peacock, of Linden, who is also very active with league baseball in Webster, came by my house and asked if I would help get the word out about an upcom- ing turkey shoot-they were going to be putting on and also to extend a personal invita- tion for me to come and take part Now folks, it is no deep and dark secret amongst the hunters in Central .Florida that I like to shoot in turkey shoots every chance I get so I made some definite plans to be there. Turkey shoots bring out all kinds of good folks who for the most part have in their posses- sion at least one highly treas- ured shot gun that is really good for this kind of shooting competition and I =""""""" have to admit that I y I firmly fit into this category. I have my on special shotgun that I like to shoot in competition with' the other shotguns that will invariably show up with the proud owners at a turkey shoot., Most of the turkey ADAmS shoots nowadays SWriter give a gift certifi- cate to each rounds winner to redeem a turkey at some local food store and the fine folks at the Winn- Dixie store in Bushnell were the gracious donors of the gift certificates at this shoot and Webster businessman and well-respected farmer John Graham who has the Webster Farm Supply store donated all of the necessary shot shells needed for the competition.. In the old days, actual live turkey were used for the shoots and the trick was to get the turkey to somehow or another get its self into a posi- tion for a decent shot and if then you managed to hit the turkey you won the turkey. If you recall the classic Oscar winning black and white movie Sergeant York starring. Gary Cooper there was a special scene where he was using his muzzle loading rifle in a local turkey shoot and when the gobbler would not stick his head up for a shot Sgt York gobbled at it causing the Wily gobbler to lift its head and Sgt York then shot and won the turkey. ,, Nowadays,-a paper target is used and the rules vary from contest to contest At the shoot that was held in Webster ten targets were set, up down range at about 35 yards. An entrance fee was paid by each contestant and there were ten shooters for each ten-round competition. The trick was to try and come as close as you could to a small X in the cen- AA . -, L i ds .o h i t -eyso i.'- V,., I .. .- -. -.. L! ! ..e .- ' Loca kids who sho in. th ese iteLegebsbl udrasn ukysot ter of the target and whoever ,came the closest to the X was judged to be the round winner. This is fair, way of shooting because it gives everyone a chance no matter what kind of shotgun they might be using. Which by the way the legal shotguns are any 12 gauge shot gun on down to the small 410 gauge shotgun that kids like to shoot? All contestants must use the same type shot shells, which is normally low brass number 8 shot load fur- nished for the shooter. After each round of shoot- ing the targets are pulled and whoever has a hit closest to the X is the winner. There is some luck involved wit h this type of shooting but it does take a special shotgun shoot- ing a good pattern and a lot of skill to consistently keep the load of shot in the center of the target. Several years ago,. the Center Hill Fire Department was famous for putting on one of the finest- turkey shoots in the country. Folks from all over the state would .bring their trusty shotguns to this annual shoot and try to gain some bragging rights. Most of the time the Center Hill boys. had real frozen turkey to award the winners and several times back when I was a game warden I got my Thanksgiving and Christmas turkey after winning a couple of rounds. One time they even had a whole beef loin for the grand prize and I managed to win that fine piece of needed meat with Lenard Mealer's shotgun if memory serves me right. Steve Madere, Dave.Hanson and Lenard Mealer are a few of the best shooters from the Center Hill area that come to mind and some of these old boys had shotguns that are still legendary in this part of the, state. In fact, Lenard's boy Jamie won a bunch of turkeys at the Webster shoot with his on spe- cial shotgun and-yes his daddy still has his treasured turkey shoot shotguns. The turkey shoot raised some much-needed money and there was fun and good food to be had by everyone there. There were even spe- cial rounds for the kids and the women had their chance some shooting glory to boot. I hope this Webster turkey shoot becomes an annual event and I would hope more turkey shoots are conducted around the stated. It is a fine time for good folks to get together and a great time to do a little fancy shooting with your favorite shotgun not to mention bring- ing home a turkey or two if you are lucky. ,.

Golfing tournament fundraiser to benefit crash victim AMANDA MIMS Staff Writer The family of a Wildwood man injured in a plane crash earlier this year is planning a golf scramble fundraiser to 'raise money for mounting medical bills that have been accumulating since February. Marty McClellan, 33, had injuries to his spinal cord and a, fractured neck from the crash that injured anoth- er passenger and killed two others when the single engine plane they were in came in for landing at Flying Baron Airport in Leesburg. While he is making progress, his wife Jeanie says it hasn't been an easy three months for them and their sons, Coby, 5, and Austin, 11. To top it all off, the McClellans owe $15,000 of the $200,000 in medical bills, and that number is still increasing. Though Marty McClellan was released from the hospital about four weeks after the crash, he still has therapy sessions three times a week and takes medication for nerve damage. Unable to work, he has to pay $850 every month to keep his med- ical insurance policy. Jeanie said things aren't going as well as everyone would like, but it's getting better. "Physically and emo- tionally he's still upset, but church has helped us," she said. Through it all, Jeanie McClellan has remained a full-time employee at a med- ical office in Leesburg. She said she hopes the scramble will recover at least some of their expenses, but doesn't know what to expect Either way, she said, the McClellans won't be doing any more fundraising activities because of the time involved, but the James (Marty) McClellan Contribution fund will remain open. In the last two months, she said they've received $1,500 in contribu- tions to the fund.. The scramble will be held at the Miona Lake Golf Club on Saturday, May 21, and the deadline to enter is May 19. You can make your own four- some or sign up as a single player Tee times are from 8 a.m. to noon and the cost is $40 per person. Entries can be mailed to Miona Lake Golf Club, 5473 County Road 122, Wildwood, Fla. 34785. Entrants are asked to list the name, telephone number, and handicap of each player and the preferred tee time, or call (352) 748-4200. Monetary contributions can still be made to the James (Marty) McClellan Contribution Fund at any of the First Citizens Bank loca- tions, of which there is one in Leesburg and six in the Villages. Contributions can also be mailed to: Citizens First Bank, 1341 Griffin Road, Leesburg, Fla. 34748. For more information about the fund call Lee Ann Gilson at (352) 259-3200. Buying the best was on the agenda for Bushnell Elementary School students as they lined up to purchase their book fair finds. The school held its annual book fair last month.

Many walk the streets in search of food. They may be ill or injured. And too many are unaltered. And so the popula- tion of unwanted cats and dogs grow. And with the growing population of homeless ani- mals, so is the number growing of animals being euthanized at animal, control facilities around the state and country. . Many progressive cities and states have started aggressive spay and neuter programs, along with adoption efforts to reduce the number of animals that are killed in their facili- ties. They have educated their citizens in the importance of responsible pet owner ship, spay and neuter, and vaccinat-. ing their pets. With a concen- trated effort by governmental agencies, rescue groups, and Jesse is an eight-year-old gentleman the public, these cities and states have greatly reduced the number of animals killed in their areas. They have become the roll models for the rest of the country. One of our biggest problems in this county is "puppy mill." Tucked away in backyards, ani- mals are kept in tiny cages and filthy conditions. They are con- tinually bred and the puppies or kittens are sold for a profit The animals are usually not vaccinated and are given no veterinarian care. Money only drives these people, with no regard for the pain and suffer- ing of the animals in their pos- session. They do not care who buys the animals, or whether they will be cared for properly. They just want to be paid. When our county and state starts to take these problems seriously, then we can begin to reduce the numbers of a nim a Is that are being euthanized in our animal control facilities around the state. If we all start to work toward a common goal, to educate the public, and take a tough stand against the "puppy mill" breeders, we can someday become a roll model too. SOCIAL STUDIES WINNERS.

Hundreds of families, friends and LSCC personnel attended the 42nd Annual Commencement Ceremony, on Friday, May 6, to acknowl- edge and celebrate the many accomplishments of these LSCC students. Prior to being awarded her degree in nursing, Student Commencement Speaker Delrose Tobie (photo below) spoke to the assembly on the importance of getting an edu- cation. Inspired by her Jamaican parents, both advo- cates of learning, the 44-year- old LSCC alumna plans to continue her studies and work toward a four-year degree. Lake-Sumter Community College's graduates ate con- sistently in the top-ten per- cent of the most academically- successful students graduat- ing from four-year universi- ties. The Class of 2005 will cer- tainly validate this state-wide reputation. Eight graduates were recognized for earning perfect 4.0 grade point aver- ages. For this accomplishment Mel Blakeslee, Lorrie Chappell, Lyndajoy Griffin, Candice McRoy, Robert Regenhardt, Brent Stephens, Kevin Vickers and Michelle Williams were presented Academic Excellence Awards. Eighty-one students garnered Summa Cum Laude honors (3.804.0 GPA), 45 graduated Magna Cum Laude (3.60-3.79 GPA), and sixty graduates earned Cum Laude (3.4-3.59 GPA) degrees. Another prestigious award is the President's Award, given to one student each year for lead- ership, service and scholar- ship. "It is by far one of the toughest decisions I make," said Dr. Charles Mojock. "There are always so many deserving students." This year's impressive nominees were: Lorrie Anne Chappel, Anne Gercken, Kathy Montaudo, Diana Robinson, Angela Roof and Kaitlyn Wagner. Graduate Joel Hughes (photo below) was selected to receive the 2005 honor. An LSCC Ambassador, Joel partic- ipated in the Student Government Association, served as an assistant theatre director, represented the stu- dent body on the College's Planning Council and served as a College Diplomat. In addi- tion to the President's Award, Joel earned membership in the community college academic honorary Phi Theta Kappa, a position on the All-USA/All- Florida Academic Teams, and first-place awards for his entries in LSCCs literary maga- zine Odyssey. He was also selected as one of only 20 col- lege/university students to be featured in Florida Leader magazine's "Florida College Student of the Year Award" issue. Vian k. 7- 1Win D.J.
