LBES, LBMS earn 'A' grades


BY TAMMY WILKERSON
Times Editor
'The Union County School
Board is once again celebrating
the success of two of its three
schools within the district. In
the recently released Department
of Education report containing
school grades, both Lake But-
ler Elementary School and Lake
Butlfr Middle School received
an "A" grade. The high school
grades are expected to be re-
leased at a later date.
This is the seventh year in a
row that Lake Butler Elemen-
tary School has received an "A"
grade. The school received a
total of 620 points, the second
highest score in the district since
the inception of school grades in


1998.
In the first three years of the
program, LBES earned a "B"
grade, followed by a "C" in the
2001-2002 school year. Then
'things began looking up for the
school when it earned its first-
ever "A" grade for the 2002-
2003 school year. The following
year, the school fell back a level
and earned another "B."
In 2004, things turned around
for the school when it once again
earned an "A," and for the past
seven years, LBES has main-
tained that grade.
Of the students at LBES who
were required to undergo testing
in 2010-2011, 100 percent were
tested and of that total, 87 percent
at LBES met the high standards
in reading. Ninety-four percent


met the standards in math and
writing and 50 percent met the
standards in science.
"LBES is thrilled to be an
A school for seven years con-
secutively," said Principal Lynn
Bishop. "Our faculty, staff and
students work hard to excel and
continue to do so. We are grate-
ful for the support of our parents,
community leaders and school
board who are always there to
assist us in all our endeavors. I'm
proud to have had the opportuni-
ty to work in this school system
for 31 years, 24 of which have
been at Lake Btitler Elementary
School. I know Mrs. Rimes will
continue to lead the school to
even -greater heights."
For Lake Butler Middle
School, this is the second time,


in three years, that it has received
an "A" grade. For the first four
years of the program, LBMS re-
ceived a "C" grade, followed by
four years receiving a "B" grade.
The next two years, 2006-2008,
the school once again received
"C" grades. However, in 2008-
2009, the school earned its first-
ever "A." which contributed to
an all "A" district recognition.
Last year, of the 99 percent
of LBMS students tested, 74
percent met the high standards
in reading, .70 percent met them
in math, 94 percent met them in
writing, and 54 percent met them
in science.

ulty, students and staff for their

Boater drowns in Santa Fe lake


-On July 1, at 6:01 p.m., the
Alachua County Sheriffs Office
(ACSO) received notification of
a possible drowning in Northeast
Alachua County on Little Lake.
Santa Fe.
The call was initially received
by the Bradford County Sheriff's
Office (BCSO) and was immedi-
ately routed to the ACSO and the
Florida Wildlife Commission.
-The initial investigation indi-
cates that one of the passengers
voluntarily jumped from, a 25-
foot boat while it was traveling
at speeds to be 30 to 35 miles per
hour. The adult male passenger
entered the water and never re-
surfaced.
In anticipation of the busy hol-
iday weekend, FWC was on the
water, which facilitated a rapid
response from two of their boats.
The location where the subject
reportedly entered the water was
marked for reference. Multiple


ACSO units
responded to
the nearest
boat ramp,
w located in
Bradford
S County off
of C.R. 21BB
A com-
ie mand post
Wilkes was estab-
lished at the
boat ramp and a massive search
.was conducted involving dive
teams, marine units from ACSO,
BCSO, the Clay County Sheriff's
Office, FWC and the Jackson-
ville Sliheriffs Office (JSO). The
Gainesville- Alachua County
Joint Aviation Unit's Air 1 also
assisted with a grid search of the
surface of the lake.
Fire rescue units responded
along with Bradford County
Emergency Management to as-
sist with the command post and


logistics.
More than 65 law enforce-
ment arid fire rescue personnel
searched for the next 11 hours
under challenging conditions,
including complete darkness,
heavy fog and zero visibility wa-
ter due to recent rains.
Divers from the various teams
took turns rotating in and out of
the water to combat fatigue and a
steady depletion of available air
tanks.
Just after midnight, JSO's dive
team responded with a submers-
ible with side scan sonar. Ap-
proximately five hours later, the
sonar detected an object on the
lake bottom in 16 feet of wa-
ter. ACSO divers Sgt. Richard
Rooney, Deputy Barrett Boyette
and Deputy James Ferguson en-
tered the water and located the
deceased man in the precise" lo-
cation identified by the sonar. At
approximately 5 a.m., the body


was recovered 75 to 100 yards
from the point where the victim
had entered the water.
The deceased was identified
as 31-year-old William Scott
Wilkes of. Green Cove Springs.
Wilkes was the son of William
A. Wilkes, a recently retired cir-
cuit court judge in Clay County.
He was the grandson of Jennings
Murrhee, Clay County sheriff
from 1964-1988. Approximately
75 family members kept an over-
night vigil at the command post.
The medical examiner's office
will conduct an autopsy to assist
investigators. The investigation
is continuing, but authorities said
that the death appears to have
been accidental.
ACSO Sgt. Todd Kelly said it
was reported by witnesses that
Wilkes dived off the moving
boat. They did not see him resur-
face.

Fisher as he was pulling his phone out to take a photo of his family. Fisher didn't discover this shot on
his phone until later in the evening. RIGHT: Preston Flick (front) and Leo Zarrella seem amazed by the I

Former UCSO employee arrested for May crash


BY TAMMY WILKERSON

In a follow-up to a crash that

My name is Shane Massey.
I am writing to respectfully
inform you that I intend

our little town deserves
competent, effective and
honest leadership to ensure
its business is managed well.
Our town council is made up

with four of five 'positions

challenge to seat a quality
council as the town deserves.

Jerry Greybeal. "The challenge
was put before them to conquer
the FCAT, to prove to them-
selves and the state what they
were capable of accomplishing.
They rose to the challenge and
overcame many obstacles and
their tremendous efforts paid
off. Congratulations LBMS and
LBES in your outstanding ef-
forts!"
Florida school grades are cal-

Amazing Acres
from a parent's
perspective
Dear Editor:
Nestled in the midst of rural
Union County countryside is a
little known wonder, Amazing
Acres, Kristie Ward's nonprofit
organization which specializes
in therapeutic riding for children
and adults with. special needs.
Ward is passionate about special
people, horses and all animals.
She has a big heart and dreams to
match. I've listened to her ideas
and dreams from the earliest
of stages and I know that she
' will put every ounce of energy,
passion and knowledge into the
success of this program.
I have two daughters with
special needs, Georgiana and
Maddie. They were adopted from
Romania, nearly 12 years ago, at
the ages of 2 and 3; they are now
13 and 14 years old. My children
suffered severe neglect -and
abuse for the first few years of
their lives. They were starved of
stimulation and nourishment, and
even more importantly-love.
Now, these children are dearly
loved by all who know them.
Still, love isn't always enough


dents making learning gains in
reading and mathematics and
one point for each percent of the
lowest performing students mak-
ing learning gains in reading and
mathematics.

Superintendent Carlton Faulk
said, "On behalf of the school
board and administration, we
would like to thank the stu-
dents, faculty and staff for all of
their hard work. We cannot say
enough about how proud we are
of them."

"His spirit was provoked"
As Paul .entered Athens the Bible says, "Now while Paul
waited for them at Athens, his spirit was provoked within him
when he saw that the city was given over to idols" (Acts 17:16).
Paul's reaction was different than what most people may have
felt when they entered the city of Athens. Many people may
have been impressed with the great temples throughout the city
but Paul's spirit was provoked when he saw these things. Are
we provoked by the same things Paul was? Paul saw a city
filled with false religion and did not say, "At least they're
religious." Paul saw a city given over to sin but did not
overlook it. We must constantly make sure that we are still
provoked by the sin around us, remember that, "those who
practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the
same ,but also approve of those who practice them" (Rom.
1:32).

when it comes to suffering. There
needs to be action backing it up,
pushing it in the right direction,
trying to undo or help some of the
damage done by substituting lots
of positive actions. We may love
our hearts out but the damage
of early abuse has already been
done. For many years I have lived
under an umbrella of despair.
Lost hope does that to a person.
But when I saw Georgiana that
very first day at Amazing Acres
Farm, sitting up tall on that horse,
wearing her helmet, and handling
the reigns, following directions
from Ward, 'I knew that I was
witnessing a miracle.
The miracle lies in the
relationship between horse and
rider, something that other horse
people would understand. These
horses are extremely gentle and
responsive to my girls. The girls
trust them and know that Ward

come true for my daughter,
Georgiana, whose greatest wish
in life is to one day ride on her
own horse in one of Lake Butler's

Car show win



is extra special



event for family


BY TAMMY WILKERSON
Times Editor

Sherry and Terry Langford
of High Springs were over-
whelmed with emotion this
past Independence Day when
their 1970 Ford FI00 Flairside
4x4 truck won "Best Overall"
in the Rotary Club's annual
July Fourth Classic Car Show
held at Lakeside Park.

"This truck is in memory of
my son, Jason," said Sherry
Langford. Jason died of leu-
kemia a week before his six-
teenth birthday. According
to his father, Terry, the truck
was hand selected by Jason
and the two of them had al-
ways intended on fixing it up.
"Because of its gray color,"
said Sherry Langford, "Jason


named it Smokey J." That
name is now proudly dis-
played on the windshield of
the vehicle.

During the car show a
framed photo of Jason, taken
with the truck a few days be-
fore his death, was displayed
on the engine of the truck.

In addition, the Langford's
provided an album filled with
pictures detailing the story be-:
hind the rebuild, from start to'
finish.

The Langford's have good
reason to be proud of their
win. The Ford F100 was cho-
sen out of a total of 37 ve-
hicles that were registered at
this year's event.

Groups recognized for Relay for Life efforts


BY TAMMY WILKERSON
Times Editor
At a recent city council meet-
ing, held June 13, both the city of
Lake Butler and the Lake Butler
Volunteer Fire Department were
recognized for the roles the two
entities played in the 2011 Relay
for Life event that was held in
April.
Judy Hardin, the 2011 Lake
Butler American Cancer Society
Relay for Life event chairperson,
presented Lake. Butler Mayor
Jimmy Beasley with a framed
certificate of appreciation. The
city allowed the Relay for Life


team to use the Townsend build-
ing to hold their pre-planning
meetings prior to the big event.
"We could not have done a lot
of this without the city's help,"
said Hardin. "We operate with a
zero budget."
In addition, Hardin also pre-
sented the Lake Butler Volun-
teer Fire Department with sev-
eral recognition, The LBVFD
was a new team to the Relay for
.Life event this year. Though the
team captain, Vice-Mayor Lon-
nie Norman, broke his foot the
week before, Hardin said, "He
still came out and did an awe-
some job! This was a new team


that just came out of nowhere
and blew people away."
The first award presented to the
team was the Bull's Eye Award.
Given in the form of a bottle of
Bull's Eye babecue sauce, the
team earned this award for set-
ting a goal and "hitting" it.
The team also earned recogni-
tion as a Bronze Club member.
Given as a yard-display sign, the
award is to recognize those who
have raised at least $2,500.
The LBVFD received the
Rookie-of-the-Year Award. "We
always feel that this is a really
prestigious award," said Hardin.
"They hit their goal, they always


had something going on at their
campsite, and they stayed till the
end."
For their efforts, the LBVFD
received a glass-encased baseball
that was signed by all of the Lake
Butler Relay for Life committee
members.
In addition to the larger awards
received, the members of the
team also received recognition
as the overall challenge point
winners, the A-Team Award,
the Heart of Relay Award, and
the Save a Life Award. "On be-'
half of the Lake Butler Relay for
Life, we appreciate everything
you did," said Hardin.

the Florida National Guard.
"I've come full circle after
40 years," Jarriel said. "To be
able to be here as a kid and
now be able to command such
a valuable resource for the
Florida Guard is just
unthinkable. It's just hard to
even imagine that I made it
here."
Jarriel has been no stranger
to Camp Blanding since his
childhood days. He had the
opportunity to command
Blanding's headquarters
detachment unit in 1990, serve
as base engineer after that and
later hold the position of
deputy training -site
mananger-the position he
held prior to assuming
command from Duren.
"Obviously, after serving as
the deputy here for the last five
or .six years, there's nothing
that's new to me," Jarriel said.
"You just get a different look
as a commander."
Commanding the facility he
and his family visited as
civilians during his childhood
was something Jarriel never
envisioned. Even though
looking back he said Blanding
obviously had an influence on
him, and even though he took
JROTC all four years of high
school, joining the National
Guard was. not part of his- ..
original plan.
"I worked for my dad,"
Jarriel said. "He was in

construction. I grew up around
that influence and always
thought I wanted, to be an
architect, so I really wasn't
looking at the military at the
time."
Jarriel followed a different
career path, though, thanks to
the impatience of youth. He
talked to an architect who told
him how it took himr eight to
10 years to go to college and
then become established as an
architect.
"I Was all about money right
now," Jarriel admitted. "That ..
wasn't going to get it for me,
having to go to school eight to
10 more years and then not
know whether I was going to
really break into the business
and all that."
-fwo of the highest-paid jobs
one could get in the St.
'Augustine area were through
Florida East Coast -Railway
and the 'Florida National
Guard.
"I wanted to get in the
Guard," Jarriel said, "but I also
knew that when I got in the
Guard, I wanted to be full-
time. That was my whole
desire for wanting to do it-
making it a full-time job."
Jarriel joined the Guard in


1982, going through basic
training at Fort Knox, Ky., and
following that up with
advanced individual training at
Fort Ben Harris, Ind. He
started out as 'a finance
'specialist, as the big Guard
units in St. Augustine were
finance units. Jarriel was part
of a finance detachment at the
Mark W. Lance Armory for.
three to four years before his'
full-time duties took him in
different directions.
However, he stayed in St.
Augustine, which is still his
home today, transferring to
different units within the city.
In 1988, Jarriel decided to
go through Officer Candidate
School. Since then, he has held
several positions and has
served two deployments
following 9-11.

Through it all, the career that
almost wasn't has turned out to
be a very good one.
"I don't think there was ever
a time where I said I regretted
the decision that I made to be
in the Guard," Jarriel said.
"I've enjoyed it. It's been a
good career. It's given me a lot
of experience. It's given me
the opportunity to travel a lot


and see a lot of things which I
probably otherwise wouldn't
have.
"It's been very rewarding."
One of those rewarding
moments was the chance to
serve as the commander of the
779th Engineer Battalion,
which deployed to Iraq in
2009. He commanded not just
Florida National Guardsmen,
but members of the Indiana
and West Viriginia national
guards as well.
A brigade commander once
told Jarriel that the farther one
moves up the command chain
in the military, the more
withdrawn he becomes from
individual soldiers. Jarriel's
2009 deployment afforded him
the chance to interact with
those individual soldiers.
"Battalion command's
probably the most exciting
time (in the Guard)," Jarriel
said. "You really have the
opportunity to spend more
time individually with troops
as you move across the
battlefield and see the different
projects that our soldiers are
doing and talk to them to see
the kind of effort they're
making."
That was Jarriel's second


deployment, with the first
occurring in 2005, when he
went to Afghanistan and
basically mentored a garrison
engineer in the Afghan
National Army.
Prior to 9-11, Jarriel said he
and other members of the
Guard never gave much
thought to actually having to
deploy during a time of
conflict.
"When you enlist as a young
kid, espeically in the National
Guard or reservists, I don't
think you really think (about
that) because it's been so long
since the Vietnam War,"
Jarriel said. "I think a lot of us
did not believe that we would
ever be in such a state of
conflict, that we would be
returning to war."
That in no way meant they
weren't ready to do what they
had to do.
"I think we all-I know I
certainly did-felt a sense of.
pride," Jarriel said. "Our time
had come. We were called to
do what we signed up to do."
Camp Blanding has
experienced an increase in
part-time and full-time tenants
since 9-11, and more soldiers
have gone to Blanding for pre-
deployment training, Jarriel
said.


That period of time has. also
brought about a lot of changes
and improvements to
facilities-not just at Blanding,
but at other Florida National
.Guard facilities as well-
thanks to the efforts of Gen
Douglas Burnett, the recently
retired adjutant general for the
state.

As a result, soldiers can go
through state-of-the-art
training at Blanding that better
prepares them for what they'll
experience overseas. That
includes simulators that are
perfectly geared for today's
video-game-playing and
technology-savvy young men
and women. In fact, a battle
simulation complex is
currently being constructed at
Blanding.
"I think the biggest
improvement we've had over
the last few years is the ability
to provide these types of
training facilities to our
soldiers," Jarriel said. "Our
younger soldiers these days are,
so geared toward video games
and electronics and things like
that. These simulators that we
have nowadays can do all that
from a video perspective. It

Jarriel said.
Also on the horizon, pending
the obtaining of funding, is
providing more bedspace for
soldiers training at. Blanding
and constructing an indoor,
mall-type post exchange.
Jarriel said plans for a
Special Forces complex have
been designed, but the project
may have to be reevaluated
and resubmitted due to the cost
and funding available. It is a
project, though, he feels is
worthwhile.
"It's certainly something I
think we owe it to them to do,"
he said. "Those guys have
probably been down range
more than most. They certainly
deserve that."
What everyone, in regard to
visitors to Camp Blanding,
deserves is outstanding
customer service, Jarriel said.
It is something that employees
are asked to be cognizant of.
"We challenge our
employees daily to consider
what they're doing, and at the
end of the day, did you make a

Jarriel said.
Jarriel and his wife, Penny,

They have three daughters:

Morghan recently completed

As for Makenna, "She can't

."We need to make sure

for the U.S. Air Force.
Camp Blanding is home to
the National Guard's Weather

Letters to the Editor


Open letter
from Janet
Adkins
Dear Editor:
The first week of
redistricting meetings were
.held last week with two
meetings in Tallahassee, and
one meeting in each location
of Pensacola, Fort Walton
Beach and Panama City. After
13 hours of driving and 13
hours of listening to public
testimony, it is clear that thl
effort to draw new districts
will be tedious.
This is my first experience
in the redistricting process and
I am honored to have been
appointed to serve on the
Redistricting Committee.
While other members were
thankful to dodge the "extra
work," I enjoy the opportunity
to work hard and to be a part
of history and to learn the
mechanics behind redistricting.
Every 10 years, Florida
redraws the political boundary
lines of every state legislative
and congressional district to
reflect changes in population,
as determined' by the most
recent US 'Census and as
required by the Florida and
U.S. Constitution. The term
"reapportionment" refers to the
task of dividing the state's
population by the number of
congressional seats -
apportioned to the state. The
task of "redistricting" is the
redrawing of political
boundary lines to reflect
change in the population.
Between now and Sept. 1,
members for the Florida House
and Senate will hold 26 public
hearings throughout the state
to hear from Floridians on how
they wish the new lines to be
drawn.
After conducting extensive
public hearings, the various
redistricting committees will
begin drawing House, Senate
and Congressional boundaries.
It is important to note that no
new maps have been drafted
yet. There are an infinite
number of ways that the 120
House, 40 Senate and- 27
Congressional, seats can be
drawn; the first step is to listen
to the public so we understand
where they have communities
of common interests and how
they want to be represented in
their legislative branch.
During the 2012 legislative
session, Congressional, Senate
and House boundaries will be
adopted. Legislative session
will begin early next year,
starting on Jan. 10 and ending
in early March. This will allow
time for the courts to validate
.the maps for use in the 2012
elections.
There are many complexities
involved in drawing new
district lines. The principle of
"One -Person, One Vote" in
Reynolds v. Sims .forbids.
major' disparities in the
creation of congressional and
state legislative districts. These
potential disparities are
commonly referred to as the
district's deviation from the
ideal population number. To
determine the ideal population
number, Florida's total
Population of 18,801,301
would be divided by 120 house
districts, 40 state senate
districts and 27 congressional
districts.
The Voting Rights. Act
prohibits any practice or
procedure, including certain
redistricting practices, which
impair the ability of a minority
community to elect candidates
of choice on an equal basis


with non-minority voters. For
more information regarding
the Voting Rights Act, please
visit www.floridaredistricting.
org.
It was quite interesting to
hear the thoughts from
individuals in the Panhandle.
The northern part of the
Panhandle is primarily
agriculture and the southern
,portion focused on tourism and
the item of most interest was
should district boundaries be
drawn horizontally to reflect
the communities of interest
(such as agriculture and
tourism); or should they be
drawn vertically to reflect
county lines where possible.
Many rural counties do not
have sufficient population for a
full House or Senate district
and must be grouped with
other counties. Then it
becomes a matter of where do
you split a county. We had'
individuals who "expressed
interest in "like"
neighborhoods being grouped
together and others who asked
that their city be made "whole"
within the same district.
In Tallahassee, much
conc&n was expressed over
congressional districts; but in.
Pensacola, individuals were
concerned primarily with state
and House districts.
Concern was voiced
regarding the newly passed
amendments 5 and 6 dealing
with ."Fair Districts." Every
two years, each lawmaker
takes an oath to uphold and
defend the Constitution of the
State of Florida and the United
States Constitution. These
. amendments are now part of
Florida's Constitution and the
Legislature will abide by their
requirements.
The redistricting committee
heard fiom individuals
representing' AARP, NAACP,
League of Women Voters,
ACLU, Tea Party, Coffee
Party, Democratic Ex6cutive
Committee, Farm Bureau,
Republican Executive
Committee, and the Chamber
of Commerce. We heard from
private citizens, school board
members, city commissioners,
a soil & water conservation
supervisor; a mayor and a
representative from tihe
supervisor of elections office.
Everyone who wished to speak
was able to voice their Qpinion
on how they wanted the lines
to be drawn. No one was
turned away..
The 2012 Congressional
districts will have a population
of 696,345; Bradford County
is currently grouped in


Congressional district 6 which
has an overage of 116,382.
This means that the district
will need to decrease in size.
Senate districts will have a
population of 470,033.
Bradford County is currently
grouped in Senate district 14
and this district will need to
gain 12,544 in population.
Bradford County is currently
in House District 12 which is
2,676 over the ideal population
of 156,678.
Union County is. currently
grouped in Congressional
district 4 which has an overage
of 48,073. This means that the
district will need to decrease in
size. Senate districts will have
a population of 470,033.
Union County is currently
grouped in Senate district 14,
and this district will need to
gain 12,544 in population.
Union County is currently in
House District 12 which is
2,676 over the ideal population
of 156,678.
Once adopted, these maps
will be in place for 10 years so
it is important for you to
ensure your voice is heard.
I encourage you to learn
more about Florida's
redistricting process and to
sign up for email updates by
visiting www.florida
redistricting.org. Also, the
Florida House of
Representatives has launched a
web-based tool called
"MyDistrictBuilder" that is
available to the public so that
individual citizens can propose
their version of a redistricting
plan. You can access this tool
by clicking
"MyDistrictBuilder" from the
www.floridaredistricting.prg
website. This online tool will
be used by both Floridians and
legislators to propose new
boundary lines -.. for
congressional and state
legislative districts.
As a member of the
redistricting committee, it is
important that I hear from you
in how you wish your
community to be represented.
Please mark your calendar for
July 11, Florida State College
Downtown Campus. We will
hold two meetings that day; 2-
4 p.m. and 6-8 p.m.
I look forward to hearing
from you on how our
community can best be
represented through the
redistricting process. Please
feel free to 'call me with your
questions or comments.
Thank you for the great
honor of serving you.
Janet Adkins
State Representative

Letters to the Editor
r /


OCD was a big
success
Dear Editor:
I'm writing this as a big
"thank you" to the Our
Country Day committee both
past and present. This letter is
long overdue. I want to thank
you for allowing me to be the
"voice" of the parade and the
5K run, or as Tony Brown
says, "The Mouth!" Do you
think this was a compliment?
No matter, you can't live in a
small town and have a thin
skin.
The events are amazing,and
I can only imagine the amount
of time and effort this
committee puts into it. But I
want to tell you from a "small
grateful nation, Keystone
Heights and beyond," you
should be so proud of your
accomplishments: 42 years-
unbelievable! I would not want
to be anywhere else for the
Fourth other than here, and
. obviously I'm not alone as
people pour in from
everywhere to see what
America is really all about.
People who volunteer and care
about others with no thought
for themselves, but the joy in
providing a safe, inexpensive,
and a thoroughly entertaining
event. You deserve a huge pat
on the back.
Just a few observations I
wanted to share. It was great to
watch both young and old
alike participate in the 5K run
and without tweeting,
facebooking, or texting while
doing it. It was all about sweat,
athletic ability, determination
and coming together .for a
great cause, the Lake Region
Kiwanis and all of the
wonderful projects they
sponsor. Way to go Chair Deb
Strickland, Kiwanis, her
family, Key Club and all the
dedicated volunteers. The only
technology observed was the
high tech timing by Milestone
Race Authority and even that
had to have some human help.
Thanks to those volunteers that
helped put the timing trusses
across the street. Also, thanks
to the Clay County Sheriff's
Office for closing the road and
being the lead security for the
run. All runners made it to the
finish line and should be so
proud. :James Williams, our
Lake Region Monitor editor
was also on hand and deserves
our praise for the great job he
does showcasing our
community..
As I have been fortunate
enough to announce the parade
for so many years, I've grown
accustomed to watching
people come arid sit in their
spot, bring the same chairs,
and get just a little older each
year. What a proud tradition
you have created.
I want to share the other
comments that" I heard
regarding the parade "Where's
Joanie squirting water from the
fire truck?"' "Where's the
cannon?" Boy, people are


,_.. ..




















.o










u2-30S-- -.-TempleAve.Starke,

observant. When Martha
Alford sang the National
Anthem to lead off the parade,
you could've heard a pin drop.
One observer, who could not
visually see her (she was
shaded on the city hall porch)
came to the booth and said,
"Who was that and where was
she? I've heard the National
Anthem many times and many
places he said, but never as
profound as that one." Thank
you Martha. We still have
chills!
And finally, my 7-year-old
granddaughter, Briley said it
best, "I love this place (she
lives in Orange Park), the
Fourth of'July, the parade, the
candy, Keystone Beach and
the fireworks." I told her we
can thank all the military for
keeping us free to be able to
have a day like this and every.
other day too!
God Bless America!
Sincerely,
Tina Bullock

Save Keystone
Beach
Dear Editor:
Keystone Beach has been a
Florida jewel since 1925. We
are about to lose it.
The St. Johns River Water
Management District issued a
permit to JEA (Jacksonville
Water Utility) to suck water
from Lake Geneva through the
aquifer. The lake is already
below the legal limit without a
* freshwater supply. That should
make your blood boil.
Jacksonville has the ocean
and a desalination plant would
provide all their water needs.
JEA is not entitled to our
water.
Permits are not written in
stone. Ask for the JEA permit
to be revoked. Call the
Department of Environmental
Protection at 904-448-7904.
Write or call your state senator


and representative. Time is
short.

, Richard Tillis
Contracting
'walks the talk'
Dear Editor:
This letter is long overdue.
When my wife and I first
bought a "fixer-upper" in Lake
Butler, it was April 2005. Our
daughter and family lived in
Lake City at the time and we
wanted a small place of our
own so that we weren't always
imposing when we visited
from Massachusetts. We found
such a house in Lake Butler
but struggled for many years to
find a contractor that had
integrity and stood by his
word. We 'had some very"
trying experiences. At one
point my wife and I were so
exasperated that we wondered
if such a contractor existed.
Fortunately Cindy and Jay
North introduced us to Richard
Tillis and as they say, the rest
is history. Richard saved the
house and more importantly
saved our faith in the fine folks
of this community. It is hard to
be from "out-of-town" and
maneuver through the process
of identifying folks that'
someone, like me, living 1,000,
miles away can have a sense of
peace that your needs are
being met. Richard, Larry and
Paul were fantastic and always
kept us updated on progress
through emails, photos and
phone calls.. In fact, Richard
and Dale have become special
friends for which we are dearly
blessed. J hope that Lake
Butler fully appreciates these
folks. They truly are great
ambassadors for your
community.

New in the last month are
vendors selling fresh herbs and
spices (plants and dried), cut
flowers, maple syrup, mosaic
bird baths, copper art work,
