Gadsden County has four 'F' schools

Marks reflect statewide trend of more failing schools

By BRIAN DEKLE
Times staff writer
The Gadsden County School
District's efforts to make big academic
gains hit a snag when statewide school
test scores, released this week,
revealed four failing Gadsden schools
for the 2006-2007 school term.
George W. Munroe Elementary,
West Gadsden High School, East
Gadsden High School and
Chattahoochee Elementary all
received "F"s on the annual Florida
Department of Education school report

card.
The "F"s mark a slip from last year,
when no Gadsden County School
received a failing grade for the first
time since the school grade system's
inception.
The failing grades also reflect a
statewide trend, as schools across
Florida struggled to make high marks
this year. The number of failing
schools in Florida increased by 200
percent this year.
School officials attribute the
phenomenon to higher stakes on
statewide standardized testing.

"The fact that we, like many other
districts across the state, have this
increase in failing schools is due to the
fact that the scoring process has
changed dramatically. The state has
raised the bar requiring a school to
earn an additional 115 points to just
maintain the same letter grade
received in 05-06," Ida Walker,
Gadsden County coordinator of
student assessment, said.
Walker explained that new
requirements included one half of the
lowest performing students showing at
least one year of growth and the

addition of science as a factor in the
school grades for the first.time since
the inception of FCAT.
"Had the bar not been raised, Florida
would have seen only 18 'F' schools
instead of 88," Shaia Beckwith-James,
Gadsden County Schools public
information officer, said. She added
only Chattahoochee Elementary would
have failed in Gadsden County had the
testing stakes not been raised.
Beckwith-James hesitated to
comment on the fairness of the bar-

The fact that Hattie Alridge Turner

was born on July 4th had special
significance for her father.
William Alridge was born a slave.
After settling in Quincy with his new
wife, Julia Whitfield Alridge, the
couple alternated working in tobacco
fields with caring for their nine
children, of whom Hattie was one.
When Turner celebrated her 102nd
birthday, there were plenty of family
and friends around to help her.
Although her actual birthday was on
July 4, her family has planned a

Over the past three weeks, the

Cyclists crusading for affordable housing stop in Gadsden

Journey began in
Jacksonville; ends.
in San Francisco
By BRIAN DEKLE
Times staff writer
On their way through the sultry
sun and soggy bottoms of New
Orleans, the amber waves of
grain in north Texas prairies, the
deserts of the southwest, the
glistening waters of the Pacific
and the towering redwood forests
near San Francisco, 28 bicyclists
made a stop in Gadsden County
last week.
Averaging 70 miles a day, the
riders are San Francisco-bound in
a trek blazoned by support of
affordable housing and raising
awareness of housing crises in
America.
Aside from causal devotion,
many of the riders say they just
wanted to embark on an
adventure. Only two of the riders
on the I trip have cycled
completely across America
before, and no one in the diverse
group knew each other before the
ride began.
Gadsden County is just one of
many rest stops along the way,
where the committed bikers can
rest, refuel and sleep before the
next day's jaunt.
Some stops are longer, however,
such as several in Biloxi, Miss.,
New Orleans and other locations
in the Hurricane Katrina-ravaged
gulf coast.
There, the biking crusaders will
spend time rebuilding damaged or
destroyed homes and generally
planting seeds for quality,
affordable housing in the area.
During stops in other
communities, the bikers will give

Before the first wheels turned
on Bike & Build's summer 2007
trek, each southern route rider
raised $4,000 to help fund
housing projects. Much of the
trip's proceeds will go to the

These cyclists recently made a stop in Gadsden County on their
way to San Francisco. They began the cross-county bicycle trek
several days ago in Jacksonville and will travel through the
Hurricane Katrina-ravaged gulf coast, northern Texas, the
southwest and California. These cyclists, as well as others
participating in six other cross-country trips in other locations,
hope .to raise funds and awareness of affordable housing crises in
America through the organization they belong to, Bike & Build.

presentations about the
importance of affordable housing
and America's current "affordable
housing crisis."
"We call it a crisis, because the
Federal government says only 30
percent of your income should go
toward your housing, but the
majority of the nation spends 50,
60, 70 percent of their income on
housing, and that's unaffordable.
That's why it's a crisis," biker
Caitlin Graboski, 22, of San
Francisco, said.
The 28, as well as scores of
others pedaling six other routes
across America, are part of Bike
& Build, an organization of bike
enthusiasts committed to raising
funds for affordable housing.
"It's really hard to succeed in
anything if you don't have an

affordable house," Molly Street,
23, of California, said. "It's been
said that 'if you have a
substandard house, it rains
outside, it rains inside.' It's so
much more challenging to grow
up, to live in a substandard house.
It's harder to get an education,
there's a lot more crime, a lot
more problems. Getting someone
a house that covers their head is
huge. They can work and get a
job from there. They can start
getting on their own feet. It's
such a huge step in someone's
life."
Another biker, Andrea Kelchin,
21, from Boston, added,
"Personally,. I've. never
experienced it (living in
substandard housing), and none
of us really have. But just to be

largely out of the national press
spotlight, this area is in dire need
of both volunteers and support
and we are all very satisfied to
know that our efforts are
contributing to a need so great,"
the group's Web site said.
As a whole, Bike & Build in
four seasons has raised $752,804
to .fund projects planned and
executed by young adults. The
organization hopes to donate an
additional $360,000 or more in
the summer of 2007, the group's
Web site said. Through pre-

arranged gifts, Bike & Build
.funds affordable housing projects
executed by our participants in
communities where its events
begin, the Web site said.
Through its grant program, Bike
& Build identifies and supports
exciting projects involving young
people throughout the nation and
also supports local affordable
housing organizations along each
route through on-the-road
donations, the Web site added.

raising but said, "We've been
here before and we can
improve."
Gadsden County School
Superintendent Reginald James
said the district would make "no
excuses" for failing schools. "We
anticipated having some failing
schools after we reviewed the
test results. However, we are not
going to make any excuses. We
have already made the changes

necessary to get the job done."
James fired and/or moved
several school administrators this
year based on Florida
Comprehensive Assessment Test
scores at individual schools. He
has also implemented several
programs to offer help to
students struggling to perform
well on standardized tests.
James has asserted before that
he refuses to be idle concerning

schools' academic improvement,
and, despite failing schools,
Gadsden FCAT scores have
steadily increased overall since
he began his tenure as
superintendent two years ago.
Beckwith-James said the
Florida DOE "raises the bar" on
statewide standardized testing
"every three or four years."
The 2006-07 test scores also
brought good news for nearly

half of district schools. In 2005-
06 Gadsden County schools had
two schools with an "A" and no
schools with a "B". In 2007, the
number of schools with an "A"
or "B" doubled.
Gadsden Elementary Magnet
School sustained an "A," while
St. John Elementary and Stewart
Street Elementary improved by a
letter grade to a "B". Crossroads
received a "B," as well.

James said, "I am proud of the
schools that have improved, but
we've got to make sure that all
of our schools see similar
success."
School grades this year are as
follows:

> Gadsden Elementary
Magnet School, A
> Crossroad Academy, B
> St. Johns Elementary, B

) Stewart Street Elementary, B
) Greensboro Elementary, C
> Gretna Elementary, C

Parents can also get a list of the
supplies students are required to
have from the office of their
child's school, as that list varies
from school to school and grade
to grade.
The Florida Department of
Health provides requirements for
school entry examinations,
immunizations and school health
programs.

Students in grades kindergarten
through 12th grade who are
entering a Florida school for the
first time must present a record
of a physical examination
completed within the past' 12
months.
The exam record should be
taken to the child's school upon
enrollment. Many schools ask for
the state's standardized School
Entry Exam form to document
completion of a physical exam.

Immunizations required for
preschool entry include a
diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis
series; a haemophilus influenza
type b (Hib) vaccination;
measles-mumps-rubella (MMR);
and a polio series and varicella.
For entrance into kindergarten,
children are required to have the
diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis
series; a hepatitis B series;
measles-mumps-rubella with two
doses of measles vaccine,

preferably as MMR, and the
polio series and varicella.
Immunizations required for
seventh-grade entry include the
hepatitis B series; a second dose
of measles vaccine, preferably in
an MMR vaccine, and a tetanus-
diphtheria booster.
Private schools are also
required to adhere to Florida'
statutes regarding student
immunizations and health
records.

Corrections

In the story "Staff changes
reflect administrators abilities to'
implement Continuous
Improvement Model," which
appeared in the June 7, 2007
edition of the Gadsden County
Times, Ida Walker, Gadsden
County School coordinator of
assessment and student-related
services, was assigned to the
incorrect school at which she
served as principal. '
Walker was not and never has
been principal of Gadsden
Elementary Magnet School. She
was principal of St., John
Elementary School before being
promoted to her current job at the
district central office.
Tammy McGriff-Farlin was
actually principal of GEMS
during the 2006-2007 school
term. GEMS under her leadership
saw Florida Comprehensive
Assessment test scores at or
above state average across the
board and big academic gains, as
well as other big achievements,
as noted in the June 7 article.
The article was factually
accurate, save the incorrect name
and school assignments,
regarding Walker's ability to
implement the Continuous
Improvement Model, an ability
that led to her lotion.
St. John Elementary, under
Walker's leadership, saw
substantial gains, with 73 percent
of their fifth graders reading at or
above grade level and 74 percent
of their third graders scoring at or
above grade level in math (also
tying with the state average in
third grade math).
St. John increased the number
of children proficient in reading
by 32 percent and the number of
students proficient in math by 34
percent.

You just never know what will spark
something in people. This, I find, is
especially true of children. I received a
press release a few weeks ago from the
Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranch about a
weeklong camp they had planned to hold
here. Gadsden County was just one of
many stops they were making in counties
throughout the state.
I've never known too much about the
Youth Ranches that were once known as
Florida Sheriffs Boys Ranches. These
ranches were known for taking bad boys
and setting them back on the straight and
narrow.
To be sent to the Boys Ranch was not a
good thing years ago. Most kids viewed it
as one step away from reform school. All
that seems to have changed. But then so
have a lot of things since people have
learned that a lot of troubled children just
need a little kindness in their lives. That
seems to be the approach of the modern-
day Youth Ranches.
I will write what I call kid articles, but
they are definitely not my favorites. Too
often, I have to talk with 10 to 15 children
just to get more than monosyllabic answers
out of them. It's just too much work for so
little information, but sometimes I am
pleasantly surprised. That was the case last
Friday when I took my time getting out to
James A. Shanks Middle School for the
"graduation" of the latest class from
"Harmony In The Streets."
When I arrived, I started looking through
the crowd trying to find one or two who
looked like they might want to talk. I hit
the jackpot when I asked two little girls,
Kayla and Anephia, to join me on the side
and talk about their experiences last week.

We got to talking yesterday about
memorable 4th of Julys. The summer of
1969 immediately popped into my head. I
had just graduated from college. There is
quite a feeling of independence that comes
with that diploma. I had my life in front of
me. I was ready to make my own decisions,
be my own man, show some of that
autonomous spirit that nMade this nation
great'--
"Son, wake up, we've got to cut a couple
of trees down and clear the yard before the
parade this afternoon." Apparently my
Father hadn't gotten the memo about my
new found liberties.
"Dad," I rolled over on my side and
opened one eye. It wasn't even daylight
yet! "I can't help you today. I've got a date
with Debbie Dillard."
"Son, we've got to get those trees down.
Mother has breakfast ready. We're going to
let you put that college education to work
on the business end of a McCulloch 142.
I'm sure your girl friend will understand."
I was pulling on my jeans and thinking
this is nuts! First of all, Debbie wasn't my
girl friend. Not yet anyway. But she was
awful nice. And very pretty! And I'm
almost positive she had money. They lived
in a two story house over in a neighboring
town. I had run into her at a ballgame. We
had been to the A&W Root Beer place a
couple of times. Nothing very formal, mind
you, but I had laid the ground work for us
to go to Paris Landing for a picnic and a
swim on the 4th.
I was looking at a "sunny side up" egg
that was staring back at me and wondering
if college had made any difference in my
life. I was twenty-two years old for
goodness sakes! I had more formal
education than anybody in my family! Just
a month and a half ago I was taking
Comprehensive Tests required for
graduation from a major University. I
turned in fifteen bluebooks on survey
questions that covered everything from the
Peloponnesian Wars to the Tet offensive in
Viet Nam. I had written a thesis on
Frederick Jackson Turner's frontier theory.
I was a member of the Blue Key and the
Green Ribbon.....
Daddy, I'm almost sure, was proud of

Whew, were they little talkers! Before the
conversation was over, which I ended, I
felt like I had spent a week at camp too. I
knew just about everything that they'd
done.
But what struck me most was not the
"fun, fun, fun" they had last week, but what
they remembered most.
What they both totk away was the fact
that life is unfair. They said they learned
that no matter what you do or how well you
behave, life isn't always fair. They didn't
seem to be upset; the pre-teen girls seemed
to have gone through the unusual card
game and learned from it. They were by no
means saying that they would give up and
not strive for the top, they simply seemed
to accept the fact that there will be
challenges that they must overcome.
As the two little girls talked, sometimes
animated with their little hands flying in the
air, I was taken aback with the maturity
which seemed to go beyond their years. I
guess children are thrown into the adult
world so much younger these days with
television, videos and other things to which
they are exposed,
As a 12-year-old I had no idea whether
life was fair or not. My main concerns at
that age mostly included getting something
new to wear and going to visit relatives
who lived away from Quincy. I was pretty
well along in age before it occurred to me
that life was not fair. There were no games
that taught me THAT lesson.
I don't know if it is good or bad that
children don't get to be children a little
longer. To me, they shouldn't have to think
about unpleasantness so early. Goodness
knows they will have long enough to find
out just how unfair life can be.

me. But the immediate need in his life was
to get those trees out of the back yard.
Leon was married and gone. David Mark
was in the army, awaiting his orders to the
aforementioned Viet Nam. Life was a lot
simpler for Dad than Frederick Jackson
Turner made it out to be. I was the son at
home!
He didn't need a college education to
figure this one out. I was just starting the
back cut on the second tree when it dawned
on me that Debbie would be getting ready
for the lake. We had been attacking those
trees since daylight and we had limbs cut
up and spread all over the yard. "Dad, I've
got to tell Debbie something."
"Son, I'm ready for a break. Why don't
you drive over and get her. She could help
us pick up some of this stuff."
I jumped in the car and lit a shuck to
Paris. Get her to help? God, he is nuts! I,
was hoping for a kiss on this 4th of July.
She was a lot better looking than I was
handsome. I needed to put my best foot
forward here. Really impress her with my
style and aplomb! Putting her to work
didn't seem the way to go about it!
Her mother eyed me up and down about
twice before inviting me in. The sweat was
still lingering on my shirt and I had little
sawed chips caught in the rolled up legs of
my jeans. And I forgot to wipe the blood
off my arm. I never cut anything that at
least one limb didn't whip back on me.
This was turning into a night mare!
I was picking up some chips off their
parlor rug when Deb appeared at the top of
the steps in her yellow bathing suit with the
matching top.
"I....uh....Deb....uh....I....uh...." Now,
there was some intelligent college graduate
talk for you!
SIt took a few minutes, and she had to
help, to get the whole story out. "Wait a
minute, I'll change." She adapted quickly
to the new plan. And she even stopped by
the kitchen and picked up our picnic basket
on the'way to the car.
I continued to use the chain saw. Debbie
and Daddy hauled limbs out to the road.
While I was cutting some logs up into

Editor;

Recently I have been circulating a letter regarding the
changing of zoning, the Comprehensive Plan and the
Sand Pits in Gadsden County.
I talked to one of the Gadsden County commissioners
last week, and he said some of the facts weren't exacdy
right. I explained to him that some facts may have been
wrong since I had requested public records on June 14,
to no avail and relied on what people in the area were
saying.
Lets look at the facts according to the county
commissioner.
1. The Comprehensive Plan was changed to rural
residential and not residential as stated in my letter.
Okay, but the fact remains that over 2,000 permits have
been issued in the Lake Talquin area. That's 2,000 more
septic tanks draining into Lake Talquin. Why have a
Comprehensive Plan at all if you are going to change it
to suit developers, commercial business, etc., at every
turn?
2. According to the commissioner, only 19-and-a-half
acres have been approved for the sand pit on State Road
267. According to the Florida Department of
Environmental Protection, Division of Mining, Parcel
#4-28-IN-4W-0000-00100-0000, "This is Anderson
Columbia Company, Inc. property. They bought and
are using 324.4 acres, all of which they are permitted to
use." Plus, there is an additional four parcels totaling
over 1800 acres that the Department of Environmental
Protection states "Any work here will be permitted."
Commissioner, you have opened Pandora's box. I was
in Miami in the 1960s when 1-95 was being built. Back
then they were called borrow pits, in order to get the
sand for 1-95. Today, 40 years later, they are called
garbage dumps. They dump garbage in them until they
are full, put them back in prime condition, then sink
pipes to extract gases from the rotten garbage. Folks, the
State of Florida needs sand to build I-10, and the DEP is
willing to turn their heads in order for the state to get it.
Unless you, the citizens of Gadsden County, call your
Congressman, Senators, and Governor Crist today, Lake
Talquin will be nothing but one big polluted Sand Pit.

Editor:
I have just discovered one more reason to oppose the
"Holly Branch" subdivision, or for that matter any more
new homes in the Midway area. Of the 1100 new homes
that have been built in recent history, over 800 of them
remain unsold.
This means that the housing market has reached the
saturation point an no more homes should be built, until
these unsold homes are purchased.
The Midway City council should consider this fact
when permitting any new subdivisions.

My year in review

Celebrating

the freedom

to be

entrepreneurs

By Todd Stottlemyer

When you look back on
American history, you realize that
the founders and early leaders of
our country were at heart
entrepreneurs. Risk-takers
boarded ships to make a
dangerous ocean crossing,
looking for new opportunities in a
new land. Later adventurers
loaded wagons and headed West
for the same reason.
In between, our founding fathers
fought to be free of unfair taxes,
to have the political and, perhaps
more importantly, economic
freedom to be innovative within a
marketplace that values the free
flow of ideas.
That's a truly powerful force,
one that's unique in the world.
It's given our society great
intrinsic advantages over other
countries, as we've built a culture
that's based on people believing
in taking risks and seizing
opportunities. We can do that
because we've created an
economic environment that'
contains few institutional
limitations on what we can
achieve.
Small-business owners now
account for more than half of the
nation's gross domestic product
and are generating virtually all net
new jobs. They don't take lightly
the gift of freedom so eloquently
expressed in the Declaration of
Independence and enshrined.in
our Constitution. Without their
vigilance and without their efforts
to remind legislators and
policymakers of the importance
of free enterprise, the laws of the
land wouldn't be favorable to
those who start and grow
businessmenn the country. and the
opportunities their efforts provide
for future generations. .
Like their revolutionary
forebears, small-business owners
continue to make their voices
heard, demonstrating their-
passion to ensure their many
freedoms, including those of
speech, assembly, petition and-he
pursuit of their economic dreams.
As a result, small business has
become one of the most trusted
institutions in the country.
According to a June Gallup poll,
59 percent of Americans say that
they have "a great deal" or "quite
a lot" of confidence in small
businesses, exceeding law
enforcement, organized religion,
banks, the media, big business or
any branch of government. The
military, at 69 percent, is the only
institution in which Americans
say they have more confidence.
There's a good reason for that.
In addition to creating jobs,
small-business owners are the
lifeblood of their communities.
They support your local civic and
charitable organizations,
volunteer to serve as everything
from firefighters to festival
organizers, and sponsor the local
youth sports teams. They're
taking care of their communities,
their families and their
employees.
But, as they say about the stock
market, "past performance is not
an indicator of future results." We
must continue to nurture and
build those aspects of our society
that have contributed to our
success. That is especially
important when we look for the
next generation of entrepreneurs.
We must recognize that we live
in an ever-changing world, that
we now compete on a global
basis, and that complacency in the
face of this new reality is our
biggest enemy. This is a
challenge that faces our next
generation.
Tomorrow's innovators are
everywhere, and not just in
classes devoted to business.
Entrepreneurs are artists,
musicians, scientists, doctors and
writers, among others. It's
important to find them and to
teach them about the roots of our
great country to ensure that we
continue to celebrate and exercise
all of our freedoms, both

"Some of the items were clearly
associated with the use of
marijuana use and crack cocaine
use," he said. Those items include
marijuana pipes, pill grinders
used to break up crack cocaine,
hand scales, glass hollow with
paper rose, jeweler bags used to
package drugs for re-sale, (one
store had over 5,000 bags the day
they were confiscated), and
copies of "High Times"

magazine.
"The sole purpose of the
magazine is to instruct
individuals on how to grow and
cultivate marijuana. You can see
what we're up against when our
convenience stores are selling
drug paraphernalia," Corder said.
Corder said the task force plans
to visit every convenience store in
the county, approximately 15,
within the next few weeks to ask
them to voluntarily stop selling
these items.

Corder praised fellow officers'
and department for the role they
played in making "Operation
Drug Net" a success. Those
departments included the Quincy.
Police Department,
Chattahoochee Police

"They provided donated

in this operation," Corder said.

CORRECTION:
Because of information provided,
it was incorrectly reported that
Clinton J. Jordan was sentenced
to 30 years in the Florida
.Department of Corrections on
June 26. The correct article fol-
lows.

Circuit Judge P. Kevin Davey
sentenced Clinton J. Jordan to the
"rest of his natural life" in the
Florida Department of
Corrections last Thursday after-
noon. There were no emotional
outbursts, either from the con-
victed man's family or the family
of Antonio Ross, the murder vic-
tim.
But Jordan had plenty to say
when Judge Davey asked'him if
he would like to address the
court.
"I can't apologize for what
happened. I didn't do anything. I

kiow that one day the truth will
come out. Justice was not served.
What was said in the courtroom
was used in the wrong way,"
Jordan said.
Assistant State Attorney Mark
Johnson presented letters from
the victim's family to the judge
before reacting to Jordan's state-
ment.
"I find it striking, Mr. Jordan's
inability to take responsibility for
his crime. His inability to see the
significance of what he has
done," Johnson said.
In addition to the life jail sen-
tence, Jordan was also ordered to
pay restitution to Rdss' mother for
her son's funeral expenses, court
costs and other fines. Jordan's
attorney, Barbara Sanders, made
a motion for a new trial, which
Judge Davey promptly denied.
However, she said she planned to
file an appeal after the judge

explained to Jordan that he had
the right to appeal his sentence.

Youngster off to exciting start in world of music

10-year-old

Jaylin

Stripling

excelling at

the keyboard

By BRIAN DEKLE
Times staff writer

Before his short, chubby tod-
dler fingers touched the keys of
an old upright piano, young
Jaylin Stripling seemed to be
just another Gadsden County
young 'un.
But when he was barely old
enough to scoot around, much
less walk, Jaylin's granddaddy,
the Rev. Pendleton, set him
down in front of the family
piano, and Jaylin began tickling
the old ivories.
He just pressed random keys
then, hitting some hard and
making them ring out loud, and
gently touching some, so they
whispered soft.
,After a while, though, young
Jaylin's playing started to sound
less like note chaos and more
like music.
Barely two, the boy, began
churning out rhythm and
melody like he had discovered
something magic, or maybe
spiritual in those keys. He found
his gift of music.
'if tanuly, gathered' arouiind
as'uqual'wheh Ja3 lin'itas plunk-'
ing the keys, heard it too. "One
day we were back there listen-.
ing, and he actually played a
tune. He was about 2 years old,
and that's when I really tried to
find someone to teach him
piano," Brenda Pendleton,
Jaylin's grandmother, said.
Pendleton called local pianist
Louisa Brown to see if she could
give her grandson some formal
piano training. At first Brown
said 2 was too young for a boy
to learn piano, but Grandma
knew best and insisted Brown
consider making an exception
for Jaylin.
"I wouldn't give up. I told
her, 'just listen to him, and if
you don't think he can do it,
then I won't bother you again.'
She was surprised herself (when
she heard Jaylin play),"
Pendleton said.
Jaylin began taking lessons-
right away and after two months
of study with Miss Brown, the
young prodigy played his first

Jaylin Stripling, 10, plays keyboard for a local choir at a TCC scholarship reception recently.
The young musician offered to accompany the choir at the last minute, with no rehearsal or sheet
music to guide him.

recital at St. Matthews Church.
Jaylin vaguely remembers
that first public performance,
but he recalls being more nerv-
ous when he was introduced
before the audience and walking
down the aisle to the piano than
actually performing his pieces.
Jaylin played "Thank you
Lord" and other selections at
that first recital.

Greater responsibilities
Jaylin coniiiiied to take les-
sons, which he said he "loved"
from the start, and performed in
other recitals, sometimes along-
side adults. But now Jaylin has
taken on greater musical respon-
sibilities.
He plays piano at several
local churches and sometimes
plays at the churches his family
attends out-df-town. Although
he is accompanied by guitar and
drums at Shiloh Outreach
Center M.B. Church, where his
grandfather is pastor, Jaylin is
the sole instrumental music
leader at Union. Chapel A.M.E.,
St. John A.M.E., and other
churches.
At just 10 years old, Jaylin
has quickly advanced from play-
ing recitals to leading instru-
mental worship. Such a role may
seem daunting or intimidating
for a young man of 10, but
Jaylin said he feels right at
home.
"I just feel what to play,
because when I'm at home I just

L t new notes and learn new
tunes," he said. Jaylin added he
has always "played by ear," or
translated the music in his head
to' instrumentation, without
sheet music as a guide.
His grandmother added if the
church choir performs a song
Jaylin hasn't heard, choir mem-
bers can begin singing and
Jaylin rapidly picks up the unfa-
miliar tune and joins in.
Before services begin arnd
other times at church, Jaylin also
"flows" spontaneously playing
whatever he feels in his mind or
spirit. His impromptu musical
works often invoke enthusiastic
reactions from those who listen
and showers of compliments.
"They clap their hands and
shout 'halleluiah!'" Jaylin said
of congregation reactions.
"After church people will ask,
'is that your baby? Because he
knows how to play real good.'"

Influencing others
People who know Jaylin out-
side of church speak highly of
the young musician, as well.
"Jaylin is a talented, ener-
getic youth director, and the
children just love him," Utha
Dawkins one of Jaylin's church
leaders, said. "He's a skillful
young fellow with a lot of talent,
and I think he's just very pleas-
ing."

Roger Milton
Tallahassee Commnui
Quincy House said,

of the
College
'I have

heard Jaylin play; in fact we cre-
ated a choir together. He was
coming in (to the Quincy
House) for academics, but to
increase enrichment they added
a choir. They practiced every
Wednesday, and initially we had
musicians who came in and vol-
unteered to help us get started.
But one day Mr. Jaylin said,
'Mr. Milton, I can play that song
on the keyboard."'
Since then, Jaylin has played
keyboard for choirs at TCC
Quincy House and has even
inspired other youngsters to step
out and play drums or other
instruments in the choirs.
The Stewart Street
Elementary fifth grader contin-
ues to grow as a musician. He
now takes classical piano les-
sons from Gwethlyn Jones of
Tallahassee, in addition to his
lessons from Miss Brown.
Jones teaches Jaylin how to
play using already-composed
sheet music, which the young-
ster said he finds equally as
intriguing as playing by ear.
However, Jaylin said he still
strays from the notes and staff at
times when reading from sheet
music. "I like the way I'll be
jazzing it (sheet music) up
sometimes," he said, laughing.
Jaylin said he wants to pur-
sue music in college and would
like to be a "music producer and
a football player." He added
he'd also like to take up playing
the trumpet and guitar.

have supported him along the
way. .
"We're a close-knit family.
All the family encourages our
kids to do their best," his grand-
mother said. "I can take him to
his lessons in Tallahassee on
Saturday with my mother. She
goes with me. There's always
someone there motivating him
to keep on growing. We want
him to be successful; maybe not
make all the money there is in
the world, but learn how to do
something on his own and to
know there is something other
than gangs and drugs. There's
something else besides just sit-
ting around."
Jaylin's mother, Karen
Campbell, brought her son to
live with grandmother
Pendleton when he was six
months old. All of Pendleton's
children were alre ady grown,
and she said at first she didn't
think she could raise another.
"But, you know, he was ajoy
to have around. I didn't have a
boy; I had three girls. He's a joy,
he keeps me busy, always,"
Pendleton said, laughing.
Jerrika Pendleton, Jaylin's
aunt, said, "I'm very proud ofk
Jaylin. I just want him to know
the sky's the limit for him.
Hopefully one day he's playing
for different churches and he
could play for orchestras if he
wants to."
Milton said Jaylin's family is
not only supportive of Jaylin,
but other children at TCC
Quincy House.
"Jaylin has a very supportive
family. They're at all the activi-
ties. They're always there. And
they're supportive of .not only
Jaylin, but other kids in the pro-
gram as well. If we ask any-
thing, they're always there to
assist. That alone with the sup-
port he's received from commu-
nities and schools, is the kind of
thing students need," Milton
said.

Students participate in 'Harmony in the Streets' program

Florida Sheriff's Youth Ranch

camp comes to

by ALICE DU PONT
Times Editor

They were so excited they
could hardly contain them-
selves.
It was graduation day Friday
morning for a group of 35 mid-
dle school students, mostly
sixth graders, who were just
about to complete the Florida
Sheriffs Youth Ranch
"Harmony In The Streets" pro-
gram.
The free weeklong day
camp, which was held at James
A. Shanks Middle School,
allowed the students,' who were
selected from the Children Are
Our Future Summer Program,
to participate in various activi-
ties to develop self-esteem. The
program is designed for boys
and girls and emphasizes

respect for others and promotes
healthy relationships with local
law enforcement officers.
Friday morning, the children
waited for Sheriff Morris
Young, but were told that a
matter had come up that
demanded his immediate atten-
tion. "Hey you guys, that just
goes to show you that Sheriff
Young is a busy and important
man in the community. Let's
give him a round of applause
anyway," said Elizabeth Dovi,
site director.
Minutes later in walked
Major David Gainous, Major
Shawn Wood and Major James
Morgan. "I know him, I know
him," shouted several of the
children. They listened as the,
officers introduced themselves
and described their jobs at the

It was graduation day for students in the Florida Sheriffs Youth Ranch "Harmony In The

Office. Some had a few ques-
tions but most just seemed
impressed by the tall men in the
green uniforms.
Funding for last week's
camp was provided through a
grant from the Attorney
General's wellness and nutri-
tion program, community-
based groups, and a strong
commitment from Sheriff
Young.
"We're teaching them tools
for getting along as well as the
importance of learning about
eating properly," Dovi said.
The students got an unusual
treat of their own making at the
end of one of the healthy-eating

workshops. "We got to make
our own smoothies and we
learned how to make ice
cream," said 11-year-old Kayla
Wilson.
Although the smoothies and
ice cream were memorable,
Wilson said she will always
remember one lesson she and
her friend Anephia Bullard, 12
learned.
"It's a card game called the
'Unfair Game.' It's a card game
but even though you do every-
thing right it doesn't mean you
will be treated fairly," she said
of the life lesson she learned.
School Resource Officer
Janice McPhaul said the Florida
Sheriffs Youth Ranch sends
counselors around the state dur-
ing summer months to hold the
camps.
"I think it's a great idea
because it gives them a chance
to interact with law enforce-
ment and in a fun way, too.
They have gone to the pool and
they've done some other fun
things," she said.
At the end of the program
each student is presented a cer-
tificate of completion, a bright
yellow t-shirt and a bag of toi-
letries.
The mission of the Florida
Sheriffs Youth Rranch is to pre-
vent juvenile delinquency and
develop lawful, productive citi-
zens through a broad range of
family-oriented services.
This year, the Youth Ranch
will celebrate its 50 year
anniversary.
This is the third year the
camp has made a stop in
Gadsden County.

GCSO seeking accreditation

Workforce Kids

by ALICE DU PONT
Times Editor

The Gadsden County
Sheriffs Office has taken the
first steps towards becoming an
accredited department. Recently
members of he GCSO met with
Lt. Steven Harrelson, accredita-
tion manager of the Leon
County Sheriffs Office of
Professional Standards, to begin
the process.
"It's a very long process that
we will be going through for the
next 12 to 24 months. We have
to make sure we keep up the
policies and procedures. It's like
we are policing ourselves," said
Major David Ganious.
Accreditation has long been
recognized as a means of main-
taining the highest standards of
professionalism. Accreditation
is the certification by an inde-
pendent reviewing authority that
an entity has met requirements
and prescribed standards,
according to information from
the GCSO.
Over 10 years ago, the State
of Florida directed the Florida
Sheriffs Association to and the
Florida Police Chiefs
Association to create a volun-
tary law enforcement accredita-
tion program. Representatives
from these associations devel-
oped a process for accreditation
which required compliance with
more than 250 professional stan-
dards designed specifically for
Florida Law Enforcement
Agencies.
"This is something that the
Sheriff really wants for our
department. It sets the standard
of your department. It brings
prestige and credibility to the
department," said Major Shawn
Wood.
Accreditation comes with
several benefits to the communi-
ty, the Sheriff and his deputies.
It increases the law enforcement
agency's ability to prevent-andd
control crime through, more
effective and efficient delivery
of law enforcement services to
the community. Also, accredita-
tion enhances community
understanding of the law

enforcement agency and its role
in the community as well as its
goals and objectives. Citizen
confidence in the policies and
practices of the agency is
increased too.
Wood said that accreditation
creates a forum for deputies and
citizens to work together to con-
trol and prevent crime. "This
process is to help citizens under-
stand the challenges faced by
the GCSO. Law enforcement
will receive clear direction from
the community and what they
expect of us," he said, adding
".that makes foro a common goal
and objectives that are shared."
The benefits for the Sheriff
and his command staff are
gained in cooperation and coor-
dination with other law enforce-
ment agencies and other branch-
es of the criminal justice system.
The accreditation process
requires an in-depth review of
every aspect of the agency's
organization, management,
operation, and administration.
This includes the following:
*establishment of agency
goals and objectives with provi-
sions for periodic updating.
*re-evaluation of whether
agency resources are being used
'in accord with agency goals,
objectives, and mission.
*re-evaluation of agency
policies and procedures, espe-
cially as documented in the
agency's written directive sys-
tem.
*correction of internal defi-
ciencies and inefficiencies
before they become public prob-
lems.
*the opportunity to re-organ-
ize without the appearance of
personal attacks.
The accreditation standards
provide norms against which
agency's performance can be
measured and monitored over
times and provides the agency
with a continuous flows of com-
mission. distributed jnffpnation
about exemplary policies, -pro-
cedures, and projeqs. It also
provides objective measures to
justify decisions related to budg-
et requests and personnel poli-
cies and serves as a yardstick to

measure the effectiveness of the
agency's programs and services.
For deputies, accreditation
requires that agency policies and
procedures are in written form
and area available to all agency
personnel at all times. It assures
employees that every aspect of
the agency personnel system is
in accord with professional stan-
dards, and hat the system is fair
and equitable. The agency is
compelled to operate within spe-
cific guidelines and is account-
able to the commission.
The GCSO must stay in com-
pliance with the standards set
forth by the commission in order
to maintain its accreditation.
The morale of the agency is
enhanced by increasing the
employees' confidence in the
effectiveness and efficiency of
their own agency. Operations
become more streamlined and
consistent.
Accreditation policies
address officer safety issues and
provide for adequate training
and equipment of the officers,
Accreditation is a coveted award
that symbolizes professional-
ism, excellence, ad competence.
Employees will take pride in
their agency, knowing that it
represents the best in law
enforcement.
.Lt. Harrelson gave the GCSO
accreditation team vital infor-
mation and insight on the
accreditation process and sup-
port mechanisms that are in
place to insure a successful
process.
He said Sheriff Young should
appoint a full-time accreditation
manager. That person would
outline areas in compliance with
at least 80 percent of the
Commission on Law
Enforcement Accreditation's
required standards.
"I want my deputies to know
that this is a commitment to
them to do the best I can for
them. The standards that the the
commission require us to com-
ply with provides assurailces in
services and expectations that
my employees and the commu-
nity can depend on us to abide
by," Young said.

The Quincy City Commission honored G*STARS during Tuesday night's meeting. The stu-
dents are part of a Workforce Plus Partnership with the county that pairs students with govern-
mental agencies and businesses during the summer months. The program provides valuable expe-
rience for the students and helps the businesses and governmental agencies as well. Kim Moore,
Workforce Plus CEO said countywide almost 70 students participated in the program this year.
Moore, center, is surrounded by some of the 17 students who worked for in various City of Quincy
departments this summer.

.Veronica Thomas at
Mt. Olive

On behalf of Pastor William B.
Wiggins, II, the Executive
Board and the entire congrega-
tion of Mt. Olive Freewill
Baptist Church (703 Fourth
Street, Quincy, Florida) we
would like to extend a special
invitation for you to attend the
initial sermon of Sister Veronica
Thomas on July 8, 2007 at 4:00
p.m.
We live in a nation of great
abundance and "comforts", and
it is always such an encourage-
ment to see someone like Sister
Thomas who is answering the
call of God, while putting those
things behind, much like we
read in Isaiah 6:8 Then I heard
the voice of the Lord saying,
"Whom shall I send? And who
will go for us?" And I said,
"Here am I. Send me!"
Please join with us as we
invoke the presence of the Lord
and allow his spirit to minister

to your soul those necessities
you so desire.

The Fourth of July. also known as Independence Day in the United States
as well as in other counties, is the anniversary of the adoption of the
Declaration of Independence. It was on July 4, 1776, that the new United
States Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence, declaring that the
13 colonies were now an independent nation, the United States of America.
The colonists wanted freedom from laws passed by the English Government
that they felt were unfair, especially tax laws Revolting against a tax on tea.
a group of colonists threw around 350 crates of tea from three Bntish East
India Company ships into Boston Harbor in December 1773. Disguised as
Native Americans, the group known as the "Sons of Liberty" carried out the
act that is known today as the Boston Tea Party.
The Bntish Government responded to the revolt by passing laws that
Increased the royal control of the Colony of Massachusetts as well as closing
the Port of Boston The other colonies rallied together in support of the Bostonians. Colonial committees
decided to convene the First Continental Congress in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in September of 1774
The firsi Congress demanded that Britain repeal all of the unfair laws they had passed since 1763, and
they called for a colonial boycott of Bntish goods The War for Independence began on April 19,1775,
when English soldiers, known as Redcoats, clashed with a Massachusetts militia group, and eight
Americans were killed
Dunng the Second Continental Congress, which convened in May of 1775, the colonial leaders adopted
the position that Americans would rather die free men than live as slaves and would take up arms against
the United Kingdom. The young Amencan country had a long battle for freedom, thus the new United
States of Amenca and England went to war against each other. The Revolutionary War formally ended
with the Peace of Paris Treaty, signed on September 3, 1783. America won its independence.

Long

By Joe Ferolito

. ;

Sometimes when I'm umpiring you how are you doing, with his gold
high school or summer league base- tooth big smile. It's his nature to
bab games I'll hear a familiar voice approach someone with a smile and a
say, "How are you doing today, young kind greeting.
fellow?" Right away I know it's Lorenzo and I go back quite a
Lorenzo Ellis Areama. Lorenzo, is of ways. He umpired softball and base-
course, kidding about the young fel- ball in both recreation leagues and
low. He's not kidding about asking high school tor over 25 years. I was

on the field many a
time w ith him.-.
Now %when he's
at a game he's 4
scouting. Three .,
years ago he got in
the business, first
with the Braves '
then with the White
Areama
Sox, and now he's
the Area Scout for Cincinnati.
Lorenzo was born in Jacksonville.
and raised in Miami where he played
a mean second base for Northwest
High School.
In 1968, his senior year he was
drafted by the Baltimore Orioles. "I'll
never forget it." Lorenzo says. "It was
in the 12th round and I was the 27th
pick."
He also had feelers from several
colleges including FSU. But the big
feeler he got was from Uncle Sam
who was drafting him. He opted for
the U.S. Marines instead and aiwa% he
went to Viet Nam. While in Nam he
got 6 combat ribbons. When his tour
of duty was up he re-joined civilian

life. and came to Tallahassee to attend
FSU.
Marriage, cut college short, and
Lorenzo \\ent to work at the State
Hospital in Chattahoochee. He
worked in forensics and lasted 33
sears before retiring in 2003.
After a couple of years of retire-
ment, a friend of Lorenzo's. Robert
Lucus suggested that he give baseball
scouting a try.
Lucus, who was with the Atlanta
chain, then helped Lorenzo get in the
business.
He's signed 3 players thus far
including TCC stand out Derrick
Conetser this year.
TCC is in part of Lorenzo's area
which includes North Florida and
South Georgia.
"I scout colleges and high schools
in the area." Lorenzo says. "I really
enjoy it, especially meeting people.
and being able to help young people."
He continued. "A lot of times I help a
kid get into college. I feel it's very
important to help them continue their
baseball careers, whether it be in pro-

fessional ball or in college."
Lorenzo and his wife, Dolicia
Rhodes live in Tallahassee as does a
son Lorenzo M. Elbs and a daughter
Terkhais Areama. Another daughter,
Shebreta Rush resides in Columbia,
South Carolina.
He also has a grandson and a
granddaughter.
Those that know Lorenzo have
probably known him as Lorenzo Ellis.
His daughter Terkhaisa. convinced
him a few years back to use the name
Areama which is his birth certificate
name.
"MN dad vas Cuban and my mom
black." Loienzo says.
"It's not like I didn't know him,
because he helped in raising me. But,
I just 'took my mom's maiden name
when the\ separated and went with it.
I'm glad my daughter talked me into
taking my name back."
And. I'm glad I've known Lorenzo
Ellis Areama. for right at 30 years. I
like seeing that smiling face and being
called 'young feller' even if I know
he's kidding.

Golfing for county bragging rights and

Seminole ltkemlint

Quincy Parks and Recreation Host Dixie Boys District Tournament

231 years ago a group of
colonists in North America
declared themselves to be inde-
pendent of their mother country.
It was a messy situation. 1/3 of
the people were for independ-
ence, 1/3 were opposed and 1/3
didn't care one way. or the other.
In the end, after 6 years of
bloody fighting, independence
was achieved. We then prorhpt-
ly forced the 1/3 of the people
who had sided with their mother
country to leave with mostly just
the clothes on their backs. After
all these years, we are still strug-
gling with independence.
The Fishermen for the
Hungry Tournament is now his-
tory, the team of Hatton &
Hatton had the most fish with
19.08 lbs. and the team of
Merritt & Key had Big Fish with
a 7.14 lbs. Great turnout. Lots
of door prizes.
A great many Hybrids was
taken this week, some on Jiggin
Spoons but some came in on
live bait. They are deep in the
river and are plentiful.
The Bream and Shellcrackers
are on beds in most places, lots
of limits taken. One man sed he
had fished here 16 years and had
just this year learned how to
catch fish here.
About mid week the Speck
fishen took a nosedive for most

folks. Some are being taken at
daylite but any later and it's
over.
Lots of Catfish taken on
Wigglers and Pond Worms. Mr.
Carter came by with a 10.1 lb.
Bass to show. We got no pick of
him. Big Fish though.
The Hydrilla Gnats Bass
Club held a fun tournament on
early Sunday morning (3am)
with Mike Sloan and Mark Hall
winning with 16.45 lbs., Wes
Floyd and Paul Tyre took sec-
ond with 12.37 lbs. and Mike
Prindle and Robert Rabon took
third with 9.85 lbs. and had Big
Fish with a 6.94 pounder.
We have had rumors and
more rumors of the water wars
and spend a ton of hundred dol-
lar bills for Nuthin. Now, we
note with great interest that
some gov-mint officials want to
take out Lake Seminole Dam,
while others jist want to remove
the rock jetties below the dam?
Who knows what Washington
wants? It's a sick city that can't
govern itself. One such House
Bill 2650 sponsored by
Congressman Boyd and Senator
Graham of Florida. Check it

HUNKERIN' from Page 4

carrying size they got to dipping
into the picnic lunch. They were
laughing and carrying on like
children.
Life never ceases to amaze me.
Debbie piled right in with us as
we headed to town for the
Independence Day festivities. She
and Dad were talking up a storm.
I don't see how they ate the
barbecue and baked beans---
they'd already cleaned out a
picnic basket! She stood beside
Daddy as the parade came by. He
pointed out the old World War I
guys to her. He told her how the
cannon operated. And he
explained the different World War
II units represented by the color
of the uniform or the style of the
hat. She asked him questions
about where he served. The
condition and mind set of
American warriors. The
loneliness: of being mo far from

home..... Debbie got him to open
up more about his time fighting
the Japanese than I had ever been
able to do. And they both stood
ramrod straight with a hand laid
over a grateful heart as the high
school band struck up the best
rendition they had of The Star
Spangled Banner. She wouldn't
let me take her home until we had
picked up the last few leaves that
were left over from the trees in
the back yard.
She gave me a quick hug (not
the kiss I wanted) as we said
good night on her front porch.
"Thank you for a wonderful time.
Your Daddy made me proud to be
an American."
As I got back in the car a little
more than disappointed I said to
myself, "At least one of us got
something out of this day!"
Respectfully,

many professors at
TCC, including Lee
Kitchen who started out
at J. Walter Thompson
Advertising in New York and Chicago. He
was the vice president of three different
corporations and took two sabbaticals
to write before teaching and consulting
opportunities opened up.

Kitchen, who earned an MBA from The
University of Buffalo, came to TCC in
2000 and over the course of two years,
developed a new class here: "Marketing
the Individual." The class is designed to
give students the confidence they need to
speak in public and present themselves
to potential employers.

"There are students who come into this
class who are afraid of speaking, and
to see them improve and succeed is
gratifying," said Kitchen.

"I wake up in the morning and say, 'I have
the best job in the world," he continued.
"I really am the luckiest guy. The most
incredible people work here (at TCC)
from the grounds crew, to administration,
to faculty and staff"

Kitchen's career has taken him across the
country and abroad He is currently in
Tianjin, China teaching part of a six-week
FSU Study Abroad program. A few TCC
students and alums have joined him on
this international adventure.

TCC Quincy House takes

learning beyond classroom

By Brian Dekle

Those who say "there's no
cure for the summertime blues"
haven't stopped by a special
house-turned-service center in
Quincy, where Gadsden County
students wash away the blues
with enrichment activities rang-
ing from Spanish classes to
praise dance lessons, fun field
trips, and even academic tutor-
ing.
The Tallahassee Community
College Quincy House, 216
North Adams Street, is hosting
its first ever summer camp, a
student learning adventure filled
with field trips, enrichment
activities and classes in math
and reading.
The Quincy House has part-
nered with Communities in
Schools of Gadsden County and
other local groups to offer the
summer program, which organ-
izers say is- a big hit even in its
inaugural. season.
Roger Milton, house manag-
er, said the Quincy House
expected only 30 or 40 students
to sign up for summer camp, but
65 are currently enrolled and
more than a dozen are on a wait-
ing list.
The summer camp gives stu-
dents, who range from elemen-
tary to middle school-aged,
opportunities to learn in dynam-
ic settings that traditional class-
rooms cannot reproduce, organ-
izers say..
Though certified teachers
and volunteer tutors instruct
conventional academic subjects,
,the students' experiences are far
from conventional.
In partnership with the
Gadsden County 4-H/University
of Florida Extension Service,
:students learn to build solar
ovens and cook with the sun;
construct miniature rockets,
planes and kite's; navigate a
,scavenger hunt with Global
Positioning System technology
.and much more to build on basic
.academic skills.
SStudents also travel to excit-
ing locales, taking learning
Beyond the four walls of the
,classroom.
"Learning takes place in the
classroom, but experiences and
learning also take place outside
,of'the classroom. It's very, very
important to let students experi-
:ence some things, go some
;places and see some things dif-

ferently; you'd be amazed to see
how much they actually learn as
a result," Milton said.
Even traditional academic
classroom teaching is beefed up
at the Quincy House. Summer
students are getting a jump-start
on math and reading, learning
the subjects on the grade level to
which they are rising in the fall.
"In some areas it (curricu-
lum) may be a little strenuous,
but because we have the best of-
the best teachers, they make it
pretty plain to students," Tyrone
Smith, Quincy House program
coordinator, said.
This summer's activities
reflect the Quincy House's year-
round efforts to give Gadsden.
County students more when it
comes to learning. *
More than just a tutoring
service, the Quincy House actu-
ally gets students personally
involved in how their education
is delivered.
-.. ,Quincy House ocitcials aIsk
students where they'd like to go
on field trips and what enrich-
ment ventures they'd like to
undertake. Praise dance lessons;
computer, photography and Web
design instruction; and a youth
chorus are among the student
responses that have been real-
ized at the Quincy House.
"We actually talk to some of
the students. I feel that if we do
some of the things that students
want to do and bring their ideas
into what we do, they tend to do
well academically because
they're excited about doing
those other things they want to
do," Milton said.
Positive returns' are as
numerous as the high-octane
programs the Quincy' House
offers, officials say. Quincy
House students tend to show big
increases in standardized test
performance.
Beyond statistical gains,
numerous students and parents
have voiced their endearment
for the Quincy House's offer-
ings.
"All I can say is WOW!"
Vivian Howard, grandparent of
two Quincy House students,
said in an email to Milton. "I
just looked at the Web site, and
looking at the children and all of
the fun they are having brought
back so many childhood memo-
ries. The TCC Quincy House
Camp is the best in our area, and
I want to thank you and your

staff for doing such a wonderful
job. My grandchildren, Jailand
-Zellars and Jarod Byrd, are hav-
ing one of their best summers
ever. They come home talking
about what they have done and
how much fun they are having."
Some local churches and
other groups also recommend
the Quincy House to their young
people.
Though Gadsden County
youngsters are perhaps the most
obvious beneficiaries of the
Quincy House's offerings, the
center services all realms of the
community, from the young to
old.
Adult GED students receive
help at the Quincy House, and
community businesses and other
organizations take advantage of
meeting rooms offered at no
charge at the Quincy House.
Internet-ready computer labs are
also available to the community.
"The Quincy House is truly a
community service center. We're
here to provide a service. If
there are any needs we can meet
or services we might be able to
provide, we try to deliver. We
have space available for busi-
nesses, community groups and
individuals in need of spaces
and more," Milton said.
Established in 2004 as one of
TCC's satellite centers, the
Quincy House's mission state-
ment.is "to enable and encour-
age Gadsden County citizens of
all ages to see that lifelong edu-
cation opportunities and mean-
ingful careers can be -part of
their future."
The Quincy House's official
goals are: "to help improve stu-
dent success rates in Gadsden
County Schools, to establish
partnerships with youth support
organizations to create and grow
after school and summer support
programs, to increase TCC's
participation and contribution to
Gadsden County economic
development activity, and to
take a proactive role in assisting
other community organizations,
agencies, and groups dedicated
-to improving the lives of
Gadsden County citizens."

850-875-3462. The Quincy
House is open Monday through
Thursday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.;
Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.; and

Each year, Santa Fe
Community College honors its
very top graduates by entering
them into the Santa Fe
Community College Hall of
Fame. Nominees are restricted to
the top one half of one percent of
currently enrolled students and
must demonstrate exemplary aca-
demic and leadership skills, along
with substantial community serv-
ice, both across campus and in
the wider community. Th .col-
lege asks faculty to recommend
the students who most impress
them, those who truly stand out
from the typically excellent by
being truly extraordinary.
In 2007, only 17 of Santa Fe's
graduates made the cut. One of
those students is Whitney Lee
Weeks, the daughter of Jimmy
and Lisa Weeks of Quincy, and a
graduate of Robert F. Munroe
Day School.
Weeks majored in journalism
at SFCC and graduated with a
3.76 GPA. She will start at the
University of Florida in the fall,
where she plans to earn a bache-
lor's degree in public relations
with a minor in education. Weeks
was named to "Who's Who
Among Students In American
Junior Colleges" in recognition of
her outstanding merit and accom-
plishment as a student at Santa

Weeks served in the college's
Student Ambassador program,
acting as a campus escort to VIPs,
campus tour guide, special events
staffer, and community service
volunteer. Student Ambassadors
is a highly competitive program
that only accepts the most person-
able and high performing SFCC
students. After an extensive inter-
view process, Weeks was one of
16 students selected to be a
Student Ambassador out of a
field of 3,000 qualified appli-
cants.
"I graduated from high school,
I planned on coming to Santa Fe,
but I never imagined I would get
this involved in college," said
Weeks. "Being a Student
Ambassador opened so many
doors for me. I met many people
and grew a great deal as a per-
son."
Weeks said if there is one bit
of advice she would give to new
college students at,any campus, it
is to get involved in college,
whether through clubs, student
government,or service work.
"It allows new students to
meet people, gain great network-
ing skills, and it teaches you how
to balance your time between an
outside activity and school
work," she said. "Many students

ing the transition, as I was, but
getting involved changes every-
thing."
Her professors cannot say
enough good things about her.
"I think Whitney represents
the very best of Santa Fe," said
English Professor Bill
Stephenson. "Like many stu-
dents, she's smart, articulate and
personable. What sets her apart is
her humility and her genuine ded-
ication to learning and to serving
others. She's a model of hard
work and commitment to her
goals, and she's one of those rare
young scholars who realizes that
getting an education means much
more than pursuing a degree."

TCS makes Senior Missions Trip

By NATALIE ALDAY
Special to the Times

TCS seniors went on a mis-
sions trip to Weaverville, North
Carolina during the week of
April 15, 2007. Weaverville is
located near Asheville, North
Carolina. ReCreation
Experiences was the mission's
sponsor. Their housing facilities
are located in a 1920 school-
house. Their mission statement
is "sharing our faith through
home repair". They "began in
1990 connecting groups with
opportunities to serve low
income, fixed income, handi-
capped and the elderly through
home rehab assistance. They
feel it is our responsibility borne

experiences to both reach out
and serve our neighbors in
need." One of the scriptures
they emphasize is "Be doers of
the Word and not hearers
only...(James 1:22)" More
information about ReCreation
Experiences can be found at
www.recreationexperiences.org.
All seniors and their two
sponsors began each day with
breakfast at the housing facility.
Afterwards they-met for prayer,
praise, and a message from
God's Word. They departed to
the house needing repair. They
worked on an elderly lady's
home on the outside, as well as
on the inside. The exterior of
her house, windows, and porch
were primed and then 2 coats of
paint were applied. Porch steps
and railings were fixed. They
bought her a new mail box with
new numbers for her address, as
well. New shingles were also
added to her porch roof and alu-
minium paint was applied to her
flat roof.

home oon,,nlondas. Tuesday.
Thursday, and Friday, they
enjoyed serving and working to

improve her living condition.
They got to know the elderly
lady and all were sad when the
week came to an end and
farewells were said. Many of
them continue to stay in contact
with the elderly lady.
The ReCreation Staff was
great, working right alongside
them each day. Meredith pro-
vided meals for the seniors and
their sponsors each morning and
evening. Josh and Andrew
packed their picnic lunch to eat
at the work site. Josh and
Andrew were also in charge of
supervising ,the work, as well as
participating in the repairs.
Gorge was the director and
shared during worship time, as
well as fellowshipping with
them.
A good time was had by
all, and as good-byes were said,
lasting memories and relation-
ships were remembered.
It's amazing how in serv-
ing others, our problems can
seem so little, and how in taking
time to walk our that service, we
build lasting relationships and
learn to get our pnontues straight
by looking at what really matters
in life...God and people.

We Buy Cars, Trucks & SUVs!

Dear Gadsden, Liberty, Wakulla & Calhoun
County Residents,
Three years ago I obtained my Florida
Dealer's License due to the frustration of
shoPPing for a used car. The following
three things made car shopping a big
headache for me:
*Haggling for the best price
*Having to come up with $2000 to $3000
* for a down payment, taxes, title and tag

*Paying someone a $5000 $6000 profit
on a $10,000 automobile.
Here's what we've done at Direct
Automotive Wholesale:
*All vehicles are priced at the "Loan
Value", which is the price credit unions and
banks will loan you on this vehicle.
*We require NO DOWN PAYMENT on any
of our vehicles. We can even helP with your
taxes and tag most of the time.

*At LOAN VALUE, we make a small profit
and you get a great deal!
The best part is we have family on the
lot, NOT HIGH PRESSURE SALES PEOPLE.
If you don't see the car of your dreams in
this ad, call us. We'll set you pre-approved,
tell you what it will cost and buy it for you.
We appreciate your supporting us. Come
by or call.
