Lake Drawdown


Starts Wednesday


GOAL IS TO

REVITALIZE MICCOSUKEE

Senior Staff Writer
State officials opened the north and south gates
of Lake Miccosukee on Wednesday morning, June 6,
beginning a planned drawdown that should dry the
greater part of 6,100-acre lake to allow for burning of
the excess vegetation and removal of the muck that
has accumulated on the lake bottom over the years.
Wednesday's action followed on the heels of the
public hearing that representatives of the Florida
Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC)
held the previous evening in the courthouse annex to
explain to local residents the purpose of project, an-
swer questions and address concerns.
"It went well," FWC biologist Charlie Mesing
said Wednesday of the public hearing. "Everyone

BY EMERALD GREENE
This Monday evening, June 11, at 6 p.m., the Jef-
ferson County School Board will take a vote to decide
on whether they should leave Veteran's Day a paid
holiday or to remove it from the calendar and make
Martin Luther King Day a paid holiday
At this point in time, Martin Luther King Day is
a holiday, and workers do not have to show up to
work, however, it is not a paid holiday. Also, Vet-
eran's Day is a normal work day but is considered a
paid holiday
In my opinion, Monday will be a sad, sad day, in
Jefferson County The veterans of our country al-
ready are not given the proper respect that they de-
serve by Americans and now, the Jefferson County
School Board members are following suit.
The reason that these five commissioners (and all
the citizens of this county) have the freedom to vote,
make decisions and live without fear is BECAUSE OF
OUR VETERANS. The reason we can all wake up and
go to whatever church we want, read a non-govern-
mental controlled newspaper, have the right to bear
arms, etc. is BECAUSE OF OUR VETERANS!
Now, apparently certain people in Jefferson
County are trying to "pressure" others by basically
saying, "This day isn't important enough to be recog-
nized" and what is astonishing to me is the fact that
this pressure tactic has actually made it far enough
to be considered and about to be voted on. Where are
the backbones that should be standing up for our
country and what it was founded on (and the veterans
who fought and died for our freedoms)?
This editorial is NOT about having the paid hol-
iday moved to Martin Luther King Day This editorial
is about taking away the respect that we SHOULD
have for our Veterans and for Veterans Day. We ALL
should have that respect.
I was raised to love God and country and to re-
spect my country, flag and what it stood for. I was
raised to respect the veterans of this country and
show the respect that they deserve. Too few people
are raised in this manner any more, and it has taken
its toll on America. Monday evening at 6 p.m. is a
prime example of this.
I encourage everyone to call their school board
member and voice an opinion on honoring those who
have served and those who have fought for us, or feel
free to join the School Board meeting Monday
evening, June 11, at 6 p.m. It is a public meeting.
These five (5) members are supposed to be our voice.
You elected them to voice your opinion, so let your
opinion be known.
So as I see it..... there are actually three choices
for Monday evening.
SLeave the school calendar as it is
SVote to make Veteran's Day become a "non-
work" day It is already a paid holiday so just make
it so no one works on that day. (And remember....
Martin Luther King Day is a holiday on the school
calendar, already.)
S Or take away the Veterans Day holiday
While you're at it, slap every veteran in Jefferson
County (and the United States of America) in the face
and tell them, "You're just not important anymore."

Staff Writer
A man was critically injured in a single-vehicle
crash over the weekend.
Florida Highway Patrol reported that on Sunday
June 3 at 12:15 a.m., Lucious Charles Lingo, 22, of La-
mont, was driving a 2002 Chevrolet pickup truck trav-
eling westbound on County Road 250, west of Upper
Cody Road.
As the vehicle entered a curve it traveled onto the
north shoulder of the road.
After leaving the roadway Lingo overcorrected
the vehicle to the left, causing it to rotate counter-
clockwise back across both lanes of travel.
After leaving the roadway a second time Lingo
over corrected the vehicle to the right, causing the ve-
hicle to rotate clockwise on the south shoulder of the
roadway
At which point, the vehicle began overturning,
ejecting Lingo onto the roadway
The vehicle came to a final rest on its roof par-
tially on the south shoulder facing north.
Lingo was transported to Tallahassee Memorial
Hospital for treatment of critical injuries.
Lingo was not wearing a seatbelt and whether the
crash in alcohol-related or not is pending.
The vehicle sustained $8,000 damage.
Assisting DHP on the scene were the Jefferson
County Sheriff's Office, Jefferson County Fire Res-
cue/EMS, the Leon County Sheriff's Office and Leon
County Fire Rescue/EMS.

A woman was critically injured in a single-ve-
hicle crash over the weekend.
Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) reported that
on Sunday, June 3 at 10:38 p.m., Renee Clark, 33, of
Monticello was driving a 2004 Chevrolet Trail
blazer traveling westbound on Upper Cody Road at
an unsafe speed.
Clark crossed over a wooden bridge and began
to lose control of the vehicle, which traveled to the
southern edger of the roadway and began to rotate
clockwise.
The vehicle began to travel in a northwesterly
direction and exited the roadway on the north
shoulder, where the front of vehicle collided with
a tree and rotated clockwise striking a second tree
with its left side.
The vehicle came to a rest facing in a north-
westerly direction.
Clark was transported to Tallahassee Memo-
rial Hospital for treatment of critical injuries.
FHP deemed that the crash was alcohol-re-
lated and charges are pending.
Clark was wearing a seatbelt. The vehicle sus-
tained $6,000 damage.
FHP was assisted on the scene by Jefferson
County Fire Rescue/EMS and the Jefferson
County Sheriff's Office.


City Moving Forward On


$6.2M Federal Loan/Grant

I MONEYIS FOR NEW SEWAGE TREATMENT PLANT I


The Monticello City Council
this week advanced another step
on its long and arduous journey to
secure millions of dollars in fed-
eral funding for construction of a
new treatment plant.
On Tuesday evening, June 5,
the council approved a resolution
that serves as a necessary step to
authorize the issuance of bonds in
an amount not to exceed $4,715,000
to finance a portion of the plant's
construction cost. The resolution,
in fact, is a supplement to a reso-
lution the council adopted last
June.
All city officials could say
about this latest measure was that
it was a procedural requirement
of Rural Development (RD), the
agency within the U.S. Depart-
ment of Agriculture that is han-
dling the city's application.
"We're ready to go out for bids
and this is one of the procedures
we have to go through to go for-
ward with the project," was the
extent of City Manager Steve
Wingate's explanation to the coun-
cil.
To which comment City Clerk
and Treasurer Emily Anderson
added that a court proceeding
would follow the resolution. Not


even City Attorney Bruce Lein-
back, however, could say what ex-
actly that court proceeding or the
overall process entailed.
Suffice it to say that it's a re-
quirement the city must meet if it
wants to receive the funding; that
ultimately was all the advice that
the council members received.
Anderson said afterwards
that it would probably be only a
few more months before the city
receives the go-ahead to advertise
for bids. Given that the process
has been going on for more than a
year, however, a wait of several
months must appear a relatively
short period to officials by this
point.
It was in July 2011 that the
council learned the city had been
awarded $6.2 million for the con-
struction of a treatment plant,
with $4,715,000 in the form of a
low-interest loan and $1,540,800 an
outright grant.
That announcement came fol-
lowing the council's approval of a
first resolution the previous
month.
As RD area specialist Mary
Gavin explained it to the council
in June 2011, adoption of the ini-
tial resolution constituted an obli-


gation that did not incur immedi-
ate costs to the city Those costs
would come later, when the city
actually closed on the loan, a step
she said was likely to occur a year
or more in the future.
The 40-year loan that the city
is in the process of securing car-
ries an interest rate of 3.3750 per-
cent, with the first payment
scheduled to come due on the
Sept. 1 immediately following the
loan closing, and with subsequent
payments coming due each Sept. 1
thereafter. Rural Development cal-
culates the city's payments on the
$4.7 million loan will be $222,030
annually.
According to a previous
breakdown of the project's esti-
mated costs, $4,950,000 will go for
development of the treatment
plant; $20,000 will go to the fiscal
agent; $54,000 will go for legal fees;
$163,000 for interest; $573,800 for
engineering services; and $495,000
for "contingencies".
The funding conditions re-
quire that, prior to the start of
construction on the plant or the
closing of the loan, the city must
provide evidence or certification

1895 8th GRADE FINAL EXAM VS FCAT


Dear Editor:
As we read of the in-
creasingly disappointing
results of Florida's Public
Education System perhaps
a look at some past exam-
ples of "education require-
ments" in these United
States can serve as beacons
to guide us back to the
right path. It appears that
quality of public education
is inversely proportional to
money spent, students
passed from grade to grade
without being able to com-
plete the course work but
they are made to feel good
about themselves!
Schools should stop
trying to create the perfect
socialist human (the Sovi-
ets tried that for 70 years
and it didn't work!) and
concentrate on teaching
basic reading, writing, and
arithmetic. Armed with a
solid foundation in learn-
ing the students will be
able to figure out what is
important and what to ig-
nore as mankind have
done for millennia.
Though not perfect, we
have managed to move
from the cave to the pent-
house, from hunting/gath-
ering to producing surplus
food without all the social
conditioning to which kids
are now subjected.
With regards,
9ack SheAl&q


Remember when
grandparents and great-
grandparents stated that
they only had an 8th grade
education? Well, check this

passed the 8th grade in

The Big Bend Horseman's Association will host an

There will be concessions on site. This show is sure to
be well attended.
With the school year winding down and summer
fast approaching, your mentoring relationship may also
be coming to an end. Though the thought of ending this
relationship can trigger some very mixed emotions, it is
also a time of celebration and reflection on your experi-
ences together. Spending one day a week for the whole
school year is a long time together. As summer ends this
regular time together, talk about all the things you've
learned together and celebrate by creating a nurturing,
visual or tangible memento together which reminds the
student of your time together. Be willing to stay in-
volved in the student's life in a meaningful way. And, is
the process gets tough... remember that that separation
is a big part of life's learning. A caring ending is also a
very important gift to a student.
Summer Bible Day Camp, sponsored by the God
Squad Power Club, will be offered at the Jefferson
County Bailar Public Library Camp will be held from 11
a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Saturday's beginning on June 16
through July 28. The subject of the camp is to make
Jesus real to children. Children are hungry for a real
God and need to be captured before their teen years. For
more information call 850-997-0832 or 850-997-8018 after

Sustainable Agriculture Programs Manager Claire
Mitchell invites the community to the Tomato Feastival
beginning at 4 p.m. on Sunday, June 10, at Turkey Hill
Farm, 3546 Baum Road in Tallahassee. Last year, Katie
Harris of Full Earth Farm was the first place winner of
the 'Ugliest Tomato' prize. What is the Tomato Feastival
you say? Well it's a party to celebrate the High Spring
Season. And, it's a fundraiser for the Red Hills Small
Farm Alliance. The tomato contest has lots of categories
for many entries. This year Green Industries Institute
will participate, as well as other local farmers. A cake-
walk will be held, with lots of good treats to select from
should you be a winner. There will be a Silent Auction,
with only eclectic items. And, you've got to try the
Paella, a delicious Spanish seafood dish prepared by
family and friends in a huge pan. There will also be a
veggie version! The feast of a covered dish dinner can

said the demolition would apply
only to structures that were addi-
tions to the original historic build-
ings.
"The exact date that these
building additions were con-
structed cannot be determined,
but they appear to have been built
between 1929 and 1966," he wrote.
"The Jefferson County Building
Department has no building
records prior to 1978. A map at the
Jefferson County Public Library
dated 1929 shows the building lay-
out in the downtown area with no
reference to the building that we
are requesting to demolish."
Kessler provided paperwork to
show that a structural engineer
had twice visited the site and de-
termined that the Rare Door build-
ing could be taken down safely and
separately, without adverse effect
to the remaining buildings.
"The engineer will visit the
site a third time after we have com-
pleted a separation of the build-
ings to inspect and ensure that
there are no structural deficien-

Additionally, the city
must deposit $7,000 per

ment reserve for short-

The reason the city
is building a new treat-

structural problems
with the old plant that
arose out of its defective

cies," Kessler said. "Then we will
proceed with the complete build-
ing demolition."
Kessler said once the Rare
Door structure and a small portion
of the Jackson Drug Store build-
ing were demolished, the appro-
priate steps would be taken to
make the exposed facades of the
remaining buildings presentable
and historically accurate. He indi-
cated that these steps would in-
clude the addition of doors and
windows that matched those exist-
ing on the buildings.
Likewise, he said, finishing
details would be undertaken to
close in the roof, soffit and fascia,
making the roof system exposed
by the demolition functionally and
aesthetically compatible with the
other buildings.
"This project gives the com-
munity an opportunity to restore
a portion of our city to its histori-
cal condition," Kessler said. "The
buildings have been hidden from
view by a structure that adds no
historical charm to the surround-

ing buildings. We hope our project
will encourage other property
owners to invest in the mainte-
nance and preservation of their
historical properties."
The goal is to attract viable
shops to the area and ultimately
reinvigorate the downtown area.
The partners in the venture are
Main Street Monticello, the Jeffer-
son County Historical Society and
Tracey and Charles Jackson, own-
ers of many of the affected build-
ings.
The idea first surfaced offi-
cially at the February meeting of
the City Council; it was Jack Car-
swell who raised it.
As Carswell described it the
plan then, it also called for the re-
moval of the parking lot just north
of the Rare Door and conversion
of this space into a public plaza
and patio.
"We think this project can
spark redevelopment in the down-
town area," Carswell said at the
time. "We think this is within our
grasp."

Lake Drawdown
continued from page 1
seems to be onboard with the drawdown."
Mesing said the duck hunters in particular ap-
preciated the fact that the FWC had waited to initiate
the drawdown, allowing for the most recent duck-
hunting season.
Mesing, who was involved in the last drawdown
of the lake 12 years ago, is heading the current effort.
On Tuesday evening at the presentation, Mesing
introduced the various members of his team, which
includes FWC biologists Matt Phillips, Michael Hill
and Joe Benedict. The number of experts and other
FWC personnel at the presentation, in fact, matched
by almost half the 15 residents in the audience.
Mesing started his presentation by pointing out
that the lake was 3 1 feet down as of April as a con-
sequence of the drought. Ideally, he said, the draw-
down should have started in the fall to match the
period of the drought. But his agency had made a de-
cision to keep the lake open during the last duck sea-
son, he said.
Mesing cited the opening of three new sinkholes
in the southern part of the lake as clear and signifi-
cant evidence of a severe drought.
"We're late to match the drought," he said. "But
unfortunately, you don't know you're in a drought
until you look backwards."
Mesing referred to a Lake Miccosukee manage-
ment plan generated by group of experts in 1989 that
calls for periodic drawdowns of the lake every five to
seven years to keep it healthy. As it was, he said, the
last drawdown was in 2000, making a drawdown at
this time overdue by at least five years.
He cited Lake Miccosukee as one of several lakes
in the region that are historically known to "disap-
pear" during extended droughts. Which dry periods,
it turns out, are good for lakes, Mesing said, as it kills
the aquatic vegetation that tends eventually to clog
up these shallow water bodies.
What happened, Mesing said, was that during the
1950s the damming of shallow water bodies became
a prevalent practice among lake managers. That
damming has now been shown to be counterproduc-
tive and actually detrimental to the health of lakes is
yet another example of a generally accepted practice
that is subsequently debunked by a later generation
of experts.
Mesing's point, however, was that the damming
of lakes promotes stabilization, which leads to the
propagation of vegetation and its associated ills,
such the built-up of muck from plant decomposition
and the depletion of oxygen.
He showed maps depicting large areas of Lake
Miccousukee heavy that are heavily concentrated
with vegetation and floating islands of woody tus-
socks, which he said currently take up some 2,000 of
the lake's 6,100 acres the result of nearly 60 years of
stabilization.
Mesing said the plan was to lower the water level
by another 312 feet, remove 25 acres of muck in the
vicinity of three boat ramps to rejuvenate the fish
habitats at these locations, and conduct prescribed
burns of the tussock islands. He said fishing would
be allowed throughout the drawdown.
Mesing said a plan was also under consideration
that called for annual burning of the tussock islands,
to bring these under control and help restore and re-
vitalize the lake.
He said the plan was to open the lake's north and
south gates in June; implement the muck removal in
November and December, if conditions permitted;
conduct the burns from January to March; and close
the gates again in March 2012 to begin the refilling of
the lake.
He said if rains came in the interim, his team
would close the gates and "go home". The intention,
he said, was to mimic the patterns of nature, not go
against them. In other words, if the drought ended,
it made the drawdown pointless.
A member of the public asked about the impact
of the drawdown on the fish population. Mesing said
the drawdown and muck removal would actually ben-
efit the fish, as it would ultimately increase the lake's
oxygen level and provide sandy bottom for the fish to
lay their eggs.
"Typically, when you dry and refill a lake, it's
good for the fish," Mesing said.
In any case, the FWC would restock the lake if
the fish population suffered as a consequence of the
drawdown, he said, adding that he had already or-
dered 600,000 bluegills and 60,000 largemouth bass for
restocking purposes.
As to why the muck removal was limited to 25
acres, Hill responded that the primary reason was
the high cost of muck removal. He said $200,000 had
been allocated just for the scraping of the 25 acres.
The other consideration, he said, was that rules
required that the removed muck be placed some-
where. It was difficult to find landowners willing to
have tons of muck dumped on their properties, he
said.

In recognition of
Black History Month, the
Carrie White Boone As-
sembly #331 Order of the
Golden Circle (OGC),
hosted a program on Feb-
ruary 26 at the Mt. Mo-
rilla Church in Lamont,
where Reverend Louise
Wallace serves as pastor.
The theme of the pro-
gram was, "From The
Fields To The Hills With
Our Heads Held High."
Sister Caroline L. Wade is
the Loyal Lady Ruler.
Loyal Lady Latossya
Williams presided. The
program was opened with
the song, "Lift Every
Voice And Sing." The de-
votion was led by Sister
Leola Moore and Past
Loyal Lady Ruler Mathye
McCloud. They hymn for
the service was, "Guide
Me 'O Thy Great Jeho-
vah."
The Holy Ghost Re-
vival served as the guest

"Jesus Is Alive And
Well." Additional songs
rendered throughout the
program included; "God

"Jesus Said You Can Lean
On Me."
Loyal Lady Shalonda

along with a synopsis of
the first recognition of
Black History in 1926 by
Author Carter G. Wood-
son, also known as the,
"Father of History" It
was told that Woodson
holds an outstanding po-
sition in the early 20th
Century American His-
tory. He has authored nu-
merous scholarly books
on contributions of
Blacks to the develop-
ment of America and
published many maga-
zines and articles analyz-
ing the contributions and
roles of Black Ameri-
cans. He reached out to
schools and the general
public through the estab-
lishment of a key organi-
zation and he founded,
"Negro History Week"
(precursor of Black His-
tory Month.) His mes-
sage, "Blacks should be
proud of their heritage


and other Americans
should also understand
it."
Dr. Woodson stated
that he often hoped that
the time would come
when Negro History
Week would be unneces-
sary; when all Americans
would willingly recognize
the contributions of
Black Americans as a le-
gitimate and integral
part of history in the
country. Whether it is
called Black History,
Negro History or Afro-
American History, his
philosophy has made the
study of Black History
and legitimate and ac-
ceptable area of intellec-
tual inquiry Dr.
Woodson's concept of
Black History has given a
profound sense of dignity
to all Americans.
An inspirational
reading was given by
Loyal Lady Marva V'dell
entitled, "Reincarnation
of a Black Woman."
The introduction of
the speaker was given by
the speaker's spouse, Sis-
ter Trisheka Nelson, Past
Worthy Matron of Gold

cooked meals? Need ideas?
Is fresh food too expen-
sive? The Jefferson
County Health Depart-
ment is sponsoring a few
specialty classes at its lo-
cation, 1225 West Washing-
ton Street in Monticello.
Register now by calling
850-342-0170; classes are
free.
*Kid Friendly Whole
Food Meals Cooking for
children can be a chal-
lenge. This class is geared
toward meals that no kid
can refuse; offering deli-
cious, easy recipes for the
busy family, plus lots of
extras too. This is a fun
class with plenty of time
for questions, talk on how
to save time and money
and a lot of extras. A
lunch meal of samples
will be served at the end
of class. Classes continue
on Saturday June 9; Satur-
day, June 16; and Saturday
June 30. Pick one date and
join from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.
*Modern Meat & Pota-

time and plan ahead with
meals that are packed
with nutrition and are
tasty too; lots of hands on
helping and plenty of time
to ask questions. The class
will end with a sampling

weekdays are especially
busy for most people. This
class will attack the chal-
lenges of eating quickly
during the busy week with
lots of simple ideas and
recipes for breakfasts and
suppers. A chance to help
out will get you knowl-
edgeable about the tools
commonly used in the
kitchen. Participants will
taste lots of things along
the way and focus on
healthy, fresh sauces,
dressings and dips to com-
pliment simple meats and
vegetables. No one leaves

est in being a host church
(you must have a good
working kitchen) respond
with the date you
prefer. The purpose of this
activity is to educate fam-
ilies on ways to eat
healthy, fast, home cooked
meals that are delicious
but also
inexpensive. There are 10

knowing each other for
only three weeks. She be-

knows him at all.
Giles is Mollie's hus-

they each suspect the
other of an affair... or
worse.
Christopher is a guest

School is out! All
across Florida, students
looking for summer activi-
ties. No wonder so many
national programs high-
light the fun of getting out-
doors. June has the most
daylight hours and the
longest day of the year,
providing plenty of oppor-
tunity for families and
friends to enjoy nature and
each other.
June is celebrated
across the nation as Great
Outdoors Month. Presi-
dent Barack Obama issued
a proclamation urging
Americans to spend time
outdoors and to uphold our
nation's legacy of conserv-
ing our lands for future
generations. The procla-
mation suggests families
and friends explore, play
and grow together, while
hiking, wildlife-watching
canoeing, hunting, fishing
or playing in the neighbor-
hood park activities that
help kids stay healthy, ac-
tive and energized.
Gov. Rick Scott's 2012
proclamation says during
"Great Outdoors Month,
we celebrate the rich bless-
ings of our state's natural
beauty and we renew our
commitment to protecting
our environment so that
we can leave our children
and grandchildren a
healthy and flourishing
land." It goes on to say,
"Great Outdoors Month
will encourage cooperative
conservation and new
technologies to help en-
sure America's outdoors
remain places where fami-
lies and friends can learn,
exercise, and create mean-
ingful memories."
The Florida Fish and
Wildlife Conservation
Commission (FWC), along
with Florida State Parks,
the Florida Forest Service
and national forests, parks
and wildlife refuges each
promote a variety of activ-

WEEKLY REPORT
May 25 31, 2012
This report represents
some events the FWC han-
dled over the past week;
however, it does not in-
clude all actions taken by
the Division of Law En-
forcement.

JEFFERSON
COUNTY
Officer Stefanie
Wilcox was on patrol in the
Wacissa River and ob-
served a boater operating
his vessel in a willful or
wanton reckless manner.
While conducting a safety
check, Officer Wilcox no-
ticed a very strong odor of
an alcoholic beverage com-
ing from the vessel owner.
Officer Wilcox performed
field sobriety tasks and
found the operator to be
impaired. She transported
him to the Jefferson
County Jail where he was
booked for operating a ves-
sel with an unlawful
breath alcohol level of .08
or above and willful or
wanton reckless operation.

events in June.

lists June events across the
state on its website,
GetOutdoorsFlorida.org.
The Recreational
Boating and Fishing Foun-
dation is asking Facebook
fans (Facebook.com/take-
mefishing) to choose the
"Top Eight State Parks" in
the U.S. that offer fishing.
Florida is the only two-
time winner of the Na-
tional Gold Medal Award
for Excellence in Park and
Recreation Management,
as well as being the Fish-
ing Capital of the World, so
visit your favorite state
park fishing spot, then
vote. You will be eligible
for weekly Bass Pro Shops
gift card giveaways, as well
as the grand prize: an all-
expense-paid vacation to
your choice of one of the
Top Eight State Parks.
June is also recog-
nized as Recreational Fish-
ing Month by VISIT
FLORIDA, which helps
promote Florida as the
Fishing Capital of the
World (Fishing
Capital.com). Events at its
visitors' centers help high-
light the tourism value of
recreational fishing to
Florida. Florida has about
a million anglers who
come from out-of-state
each year, and they make
up a substantial part of the
$7.5 billion economic im-
pact from recreational
fisheries that support
nearly 80,000 Florida jobs.
June 2-10 is promoted
as National Fishing and
Boating Week (TakeMe-
Fishing.org). The FWC
supports this effort by pro-
viding license-free saltwa-

Hunter Safety Course

Offered In Jefferson County
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commis-
sion (FWC) is offering a free hunter safety course in Jef-
ferson County.
The course will be held at the Beau Turner Youth
Conservation Center, 9194 S. Jefferson Highway, Monti-
cello. Instruction is from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 23 and 1 to
5 p.m. June 24.
Students who have taken the Internet course and
wish to complete the classroom portion must bring the
online-completion report and attend only the June 24 ses-
sion from 1 to 5 p.m.
An adult must accompany children under the age of
16 at all times. Students are encouraged to bring a pencil
and paper with them to take notes.
The hunter safety course is required for people born
on or after June 1, 1975, to purchase a Florida hunting li-
cense. The FWC course satisfies hunter-safety training
requirements for all other states and Canadian provinces.
People interested in attending this course can regis-
ter online and obtain information about future hunter
safety classes at MyFWC.com/HunterSafety or by calling
Hunter Safety Coordinator George Warthen at the FWC's
regional office in Panama City at 850-265-3676.


cense-free freshwater fish-
ing on the second Saturday
(June 9).
"Florida's license-free
fishing days are an excel-
lent opportunity to share
the fun, excitement and to-
getherness of a fishing
trip with the entire family.
This also is a great time for
experienced anglers to in-
troduce friends to the
sport, even if they don't
have a fishing license,"
said Nick Wiley FWC exec-
utive director. "By having
these events on weekends,
we hope Florida residents
and visitors will experi-
ence the joy of saltwater
and freshwater fishing. We
expect many will discover
a healthy sport they can
enjoy for a lifetime." All
other fishing rules apply
on these days
(MyFWC.com/Fishing).
In addition, June 2 is
National Trails Day
(AmericanHiking.org),
and the theme is "Amer-
ica's Largest Trailgating
Party!" The American
Hiking Society is encour-
aging hikers and volun-
teers to help maintain
their favorite trails and af-
terward celebrate with an
eco-friendly party FWC is
celebrating its third pad-
dling trail being desig-
nated as part of the
national trails system on
June 2 at Wacissa River
County Park, Jefferson
County Come out and join
the fun from 9 a.m. to 2
p.m.
June 9 is also National
Get Outdoors Day the pur-
pose of which is to in-
crease first-time visitors to
public lands and reconnect
youth to the great out-
doors. As a result, it is a
Fee-Free Day for U.S. De-
partment of Interior sites,
such as national wildlife


refuges, national parks
and national forests
(Recreation.gov).
Finally, the Great
American Campout is
June 23. Visit NWForg for
great tips, suggestions and
to share your adventure.
The neat thing about this
day is that families do it in
the safety and comfort of
their own backyard.
Many celebrations
take place in June the
month believed to be
named after the Juno, the
Roman goddess of mar-
riage and youth includ-
ing Father's Day.
So get together to re-
connect not only with each
other but with nature.
Get Outdoors Florida!
and enjoy your summer.
