Union Juvenile Pinkston takes seat as mayor, FResidentialt Worthington Springs, 3 council seats vacant places 4th in lit places 4 th in[1 state, reading assessment BY TIFFANY CLARK Times Editor The Union Juvenile Residential Facility received their FAIR report from the Department of Education with some very positive results. "FAIR stands for Florida Assessment for Instruction of Reading," said Barry Sams. "It is a state mandated test that students take 3 times a year to determine their progress in learning the reading strategies for their grade. It is the test that the state DOE uses to monitor the progress of reading instruction. Our Reading teachers at Union Juvenile Residential Facility are Shawn Williams and Peggy Hollingsworth. During the 2011-12 school year, their students achieved the 4th highest growth rate on their FAIR reading scores of all the juvenile justice facilities in the st.te. We are very proud of the students and staff at UJRF. The partnership of the Union County School Board and Sequel Youth and Family Services in serving the young men at UJRF has proven exemplary once again. Thanks to the staff and students." Aside from the daily lessons of reading, writing and arithmetic, some third grade students at Lake Butler Elementary School learned that having a green thumb can sometimes pay off. Through a special program offered by Bonnie Plants, each third-grade student is given one free cabbage plant in the spring. For a period of about two months, the students are allowed to take their cabbage home, plant it, nurture it and hopefully grow the heaviest and largest plant of their class. At the end of the growing season, students are then asked to photograph themselves with their cabbage, harvest it and take it to the Lake Butler Farm Center for an official weigh-in. The student with the largest cabbage per class is then awarded cash prizes through donations from local businesses and community members. The donations are used as a way to encourage more participation in the national program. Bonnie Plants' cabbage program first began back in 2002 with a mission to inspire a love of vegetable gardening in young people. The program uses a cross variety cabbage, which is known for producing giant, oversized heads. It was the first plant sold by Bonnie Plants in 1918. There were six students at LBES that were awarded cash prizes based on. their cabbage's total weight. As part of the program, Bonnie Plants awards a one thousand dollar scholarship to one student in each state. Local cash prizes were made possible through donations received from the Lake Butler Farm- Center, Union County Farm Bureau, Elery and Katheryne Griffis, and Alvin and Geraldine Griffis. Students receiving prizes were Kylee Davis, Sierra Garland, Julianna O'Quinn, Tenli Parrish, Logan Richards and Ciara Woodall. (Story and pictures provided by Tammy Wilkerson.) Ronnie Pinkston was appointed the mayor of Worthington Springs during the town councils regular monthly meeting held June 4. The council seats recently held by Bob Waters, Joan Douglas and Vicki Cushman are open for election, which will be held July 16. (Pictured, l-r) Pinkston was sworn in during the meeting by the town's attorney William Sexton.

Ls Mill I I ---I III I --- THURSDAY, jUNE 20, 2013 UNION COUNTY TIMES 5A Grant supports Acorn clinic classes in rural areas The Avon Breast Health Outreach program has awarded a $27,320 one-year grant to Alachua County Organization for Rural Needs, Inc.-(ACORN Clinic) ,to increase awareness of the life-saving benefits of early detection of breast cancer. It is the 10th year the Avon Foundation for Women has funded ACORN's Women's Health Partnership, Breast Health Outreach Program, to support its work on this important health issue and in recognition of the program's excellence. Health disparities are acute in rural north central Florida, the area served by ACORN Clinic. Cancer is the leading cause of death in Bradford and Union counties, with a higher incidence of breast cancer existing in Bradford County than in the entire state of Florida itself. The Women's Health Partnership Program at ACORN Clinic educates women in a tri-county area of north central Florida that includes Alachua, Bradford and Union counties on proper breast health education and self-examination and offers free or low cost mammograms to uninsured or underinsured women who have no financial resources to obtain an annual screening. The program targets rural areas with reduced access to health education and mammography services. Women of all races are reached through women's church groups, senior centers, low-cost health clinics and other community based organizations. - Beginning in June, Johnette Davis, ACORN Clinic's new Breast. Health Educator, will hold breast health education classes at a local church and the Starke Senior Center, with other locations to bescheduled through the summer and fall. "I am pleased to partner with ACORN Clinic and the Avon Foundation for Women to help women in our community detect and prevent breast cancer in their lives through education and awareness," said Davis, a registered nurse for eight years. Since January 2003, ACORN Clinic's Women's Health Partnership, Breast Health Outreach program has reached 8,878 women with information about the importance of early detection of breast cancer, facilitated 2,798 mammography referrals and performed 3,614 clinical breast exams. Goals for 2013 are to reach 750 women with educational information, 300 for clinical breast exams and 300 mammography referrals. According to the American Cancer Society 20.13 Breast Cancer Facts, in a lifetime, 1 in 8 US women will develop invasive breast cancer. Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women in the United States and the second leading cause of cancer deaths; only lung cancer accounts for more cancer-related. deaths in women. Nationwide, there is a new diagnosis every three minutes and a death from breast cancer every 14 minutes. While advances have been made in prevention, diagnosis and treatment, early detection still affords the best opportunity for successful treatment. Programs such as ACORN's Women's Health Partnership, Breast Health Outreach Program help ensure that all women have access to early detection information and options, even poor and medically underserved women. Since 1993, the Avon Foundation has awarded more than 1,550 grants to community-based breast health programs across the United States, including the Women's Health Partnership at the ACORN Clinic. These programs are dedicated to educating underserved women about breast cancer and linking them to early detection screening services. SThe; A.von ... Foundation for Women7 .an-" accredited 501(c)(3) public charity, was founded in 1955 to improve the lives of women and today is the world's largest corporate-affiliated philanthropy focused on issues that matter most to women. The Avon Breast Cancer Crusade, which observed its 20th anniversary in 2012, has placed Avon at the forefront of the fight against breast cancer. Today, Avon is the leading corporate supporter of the cause globally. In the more than 20 years since the crusade's launch, Avon breast cancer programs in 58 countries have donated more than $780 million for research and advancing access to care, regardless of a person's ability to pay. Avon raises funds for the crusade through the sale of Avon "Pink Ribbon" products, and through events and walks, such as the U.S. Avon Walk for Breast Cancer series, which is the Foundation's largest fundraising source. The Avon Breast Health Outreach Program is administered by Cicatelli Associates Inc. to support community-based, nonprofit breast health programs across the country. The Fund's National Advisory Board selected the Women's Health Partnership Program at ACORN 'Clinic as one of 100 new grant recipients nationwide in the 2013 cycle of Avon Breast Health Outreach Program grants. These organizations were chosen based on their ability to effectively reach women, particularly minority, low- income, and older women, who are often medically underserved.

A Better Country Life here on earth sometimes is not great. We are beset by trials, temptations, anxieties, and suffering. Yet the Bible reminds us "the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us" (Romans 8:18). Like the faithful of old, we, "desire a better, that is, a heavenly country" (Hebrews 11:16). We look forward to, "the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God" (Hebrews 11:10). In order to enter that better country, the eternal city built by God, we, "have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise" (Hebrews 10:36). We must be those who do (obey) God's' will and continue to do (obey) His will throughout our lives. We must not draw back but, "believe to the saving of the .soul" (Hebrews 10:39).

The 91-year-old Alachua County resident is a part of history as one of the famed Tuskegee Airmen. He shared his experience with the Kiwanis Club of Starke on June 4, but seemed more at ease talking about his life of faith after his military service. "No, I'm not a hero," Lawrence said. "I'm a hero over the enemy, who is Satan. Ah, that's where I'm a hero, and where some of you all are heroes." "Tuskegee Airmen" is a term that includes all those who took part in what was termed an. "experiment." An Army Air Corps program, based in Tuskegee, Ala., was created in 1941 to train African-Americans to fly and maintain combat aircraft as part of the 99"'h Pursuit Squadron. The group included pilots, navigators, bombardiers and maintenance and support staff. Lawrence was a mechanic. ."I was sent to school in Wichita Falls, Texas, to learn how to work on planes, which was easy," Lawrence said. "The Lord gave me a brain." Yet during that time of segregation, many white Americans would not have thought it was so "easy" for Lawrence and other African- Americans to make serious military contributions. Prior to 1940, African-Americans were prevented from flying for the U.S. military. "The Tuskegee Airmen had to prove themselves, prove that they had the ability," Lawrence said. "They called it an experiment. I called it an experience." Lawrence, who grew up in Pennsylvania and who was working as a welder, had no desire to join the military. A group of his friends volunteered for service after the U.S. entered World War II. He asked them what their jobs in the military were. They replied with such tasks as changing bed sheets and cleaning toilets. "Why would I want to go into the military doing something like that? I was against going into the military," Lawrence said. "Do you get it? It was segregated. I didn't fit into it." The way Lawrence viewed things, he was the,same as any other person, Only the color of his skin was different. "I don't think God put me in this world to be separated from other people if we have the same equipment," he said. Lawrence was eventually drafted in 1943, though he never left the U.S. "I did not go overseas," he said. "I stayed right there (in Tuskegee), working with kids learning how to fly planes." If Lawrence and the other African-Americans who trained and worked in Tuskegee didn't realize the discrimination they would face, they were reminded of it by Lt. Col. Benjamin 0. .Davis, who was the commander of the 99"' Squadron and a graduate of West Point. "He had been at West Point for four years," Lawrence said. "He received the silent treatment for four years. Do you know what the silent treatment is? The silent treatment is you stay in your room by yourself, you eat by yourself and the only way you were addressed was (in an official manner)." Segregation proved a "hard row to hoe," Lawrence said. However, that was the reality of life at that time. That's why he doesn't view himself as a hero for simply being one of the Tuskegee Airmen. "My experience was survival-not being a hero," he said. The Tuskegee Airmen received the Hollywood. treatment with the release of "Red Tails" in 2012. Lawrence said the movie didn't do as good a job depicting what the airmen went through as the 1995 HBO movie "The Tuskegee Airmen." -"You need to tell-the real stery of how we were treated," Lawrence said. "I think the first (movie) that came out was a good one, but 'Red Tails' dropped the ball." Arc of Bradford staff member Tony Sellars (right) gets a laugh out of Lori Hall after Hall receives her Purple Day certificate. Getting the royal treatment BY CLIFF SMELLEY Regional News/Sports Editor Purple is considered a royal color. With that in mind, the Arc of Bradford County consumers are treated like kings and queens every June with the celebration of Purple Day. It's a day of fun and games, including getting the opportunity to drop Arc employee Tony Sellars into a dunk tank and-for the first time this year-getting a close-up look at snakes and other critters, courtesy of Devin Wheeler. The highlight of the day is the presentation of unique certificates to each consumer, recognizing each individual's special trait, whether it's for, being the best dancer, card maker or thrift store employee, or excelling at a skill in the facility's wood shop. Consumer Richard Miller was awarded with the "Best Smile" certificate, but there were plenty of smiles to go around on Purple Day. Richard Miller shows ofl what got him the "Best Smile" award.

WNW- 1101193A1 2B TELEGRAPH, TIMES & MONITOR B SECTION THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 2013 The dredging of the Sampson Lake boat ramp/canal should be completed this week. Bradford County boat ramp projects are nearing completion BY TRACY LEE TATE Special to the Telegraph- Times-Monitor Boating season is in full swing and work currently underway at two boat ramps in Bradford 'County will soon provide lake .goers with safer and easier access to their chosen recreation areas. The project at the Hampton -Lake boat ramp is a county- S-funded effort aimed at improving .the usability of the ramp. An invitation for bids was issued by -the Bradford County Commission Iin May 2012, with the bid being "awarded three months later :to D & L Contracting LLC of Suwannee. Work called for included the Removal of the existing ramp and its accouterments, including .inappropriate base materials 'and the construction of a new ramp, which meets the Florida -Fish and Wildlife Conservation .:Commission's (FWC) guidelines. The successful bid -for this work was $42,994.26. After the required design work :for the project the contractor Requested change orderallowing for additional work. This work entailed the extension of the boat :i.ramp slab an additional 25 feet -to span a dip in the pavement at the site and the addition of '-safety measures such as a timber curb and the reinforcement of the existing aluminum dock on -the south side of the ramp. The S- cost of this change order totaled ,.$12,477.07, bringing the project total to $55,471.33. SThe Hampton Lake project is in .its final stages, with completion -likely in the next twoweeks. A more involved project is underway at the Sampson Lake :boat ramp, although the focus of the work.is not the ramp itself but the canal which allows access to .:the lake. . According to Eddie Leonard, a biological- scientist with SFWC Division of Fresh Water - Fisheries, there are two aspects of the project currently underway. "The problems with the canal came to our attention because of recurring hazards to navigation created by the 'buildup of -sediment at the two turns the canal makes on its way to the. .take, as well as at the entrance to the lake itself," Leonard said. ,"Once we started looking at the situation we discovered that there were also wildlife habitat aspects to the problem as well." Leonard explained that the goal of the project was to reduce the buildup of sediment in the canal through dredging, handled by Gator Dredging Corp. Not only will this clear navigational hazards but will also clear barriers to fish migration between Sampson Lake and Lake Rowell. "The problem is created by the progression of sediment from Alligator Creek into Lake Rowell and then on into the canal and eventually Sampson Lake," Leonard said. "This influx of sediment is further augmented by sediment washing into the canal from the boat ramp parking area." Leonard said that another project underway in the county under the auspices of FWC is the Edwards Bottom Land Project. This project is based on Alligator Creek behind Tractor Supply and is a joint effort with the city of Sta'rke. Apparently, in the past, Alligator Creek has been channelized,, creating a bank structure prone to erosion. The project is focused on blocking the creek and thus allowing it to divert into what is its historic channel. Once this has been achieved a sediment box will be created to catch garbage, sand and other materials to prevent their journey to Lake Rowell and on to Sampson Lake. The city will then maintain the box and occasionally clean out the creek bed as needed. The dredging project at Sampson Lake will clear the channel to a depth of about four feet, entailing the removal of up to three feet of sediment in areas of the heaviest buildup. The goal is to improve the safety of navigation in the channel, as well as to slow the buildup of sediment in the lake itself by creating a filling effect in the sediment entering the channel. It will also allow free movement for fish between Sampson and Rowell lakes. FWC is funding the dredging aspect of the project, with a budget of between $50,000 and $55,000. The county is providing the transportation of the dredged material to the New River Solid Waste Association landfill, which has agreed to accept it as cover dirt. "People have said we should have made better use of the fill in various projects, but the time frame within which we had to work did not allow for this," Leonard said. "We had a limited time in which to access the funds and had to move as quickly as possible, 'securing Department of Environmental Protection approvals for taking the fill to the single location." This approval process added and additional $2,500 to the total cost of the project to FWC. The dredging project is drawing to a close, with the boat ramp scheduled to reopen on Friday, June 21.

As this school year comes to a close, we would like to acknowledge some of these other "villagers" who helped provide student mentoring this year at Southside Elementary. The first one is the TALKS Leadership Program coordinated by Pastor McKnight and Pastor Ramseur from the Church of God by Faith. This program brought us seven adults who are community or business leaders to each mentor a group of three students every week. The positive, personal relationships these mentors were able to build with these students not only resulted in improved academic performance and behavior, but also increased the students' ability to deal with life issues such as conflict resolution and positive social interaction. TALKS also had programs at other Bradford County schools, and as they enter a second year of the program, I hope that more mentors are able to come and make a, difference. The other program is our BUG program sponsored by the Kiwanis Club of Starke. BUG stands for Bringing Up Grades and acknowledges the efforts of students who bring up one or More grades throughout the year. As part of the program, students from the Beta Club and National Honor Society at Bradford High School came once a month to mentor students in every grade level. Our students looked forward to sharing their success and reading to their high school ,buddy every time they came. The high school students who were able to participate were wonderful role models, and vwe thank each and every one of them for the time they took to make a difference. Thank you -to Cynthia Combs, the -faculty -sponsor at BHS, and also to Rick Stephens, BHS Principal, and Louette Smith from district transportation for helping to make this important program a success. And a special thank you to Sherry Ruszkowski from the Kiwanis Club for bringing this program to us. Supreme Court Associate Chief Justice Sonya Sotomayor said "a role model in the flesh -provides more than inspiration; $his or her very existence is confirrfiation of possibilities one Smay have every reason to doubt, saying, -'Yes, someone like me .can do this.'" Thank you again to everyone who supported mentoring at Southside this past year. I would encourage those who can to consider getting involved in these or other mentoring programs and provide our cl positive role mode possibilities for their She Health ca system a 'mess' Dear Editor: The Affordable. may not be the onl health care and insu country, but make the system is a mess hands in the pot readc I recently took my ER at Shands and with the service.

Steve Lodle Brooker Paper makes sense Dear Editor: Recently,, it has become fashionable to disparage the use of paper in favor of electronic devices and transmittals. Like a lot of fashions, this makes no sense. The premise of anti-paper campaigns is that paper is bad for the environment and unnecessarily consumes vital natural resources. In reality, using paper and other forest products provides environmental benefits that electronics cannot match. Paper comes from trees, which, are a renewable resource. When trees are cut down to make paper, more are planted and grown to take their place. Through this cycle, working forests provide habitat for wildlife, recharge areas for clean water and create a natural process for removing carbon from the air. The electronic alternatives being pushed to replace paper are not as environmentally friendly as their supporters would have you believe. Science of the Total Environment, an international research journal, estimates that discarded devices create approximately 50 million tons of electronic waste each year. These products contain a variety of non- renewable materials that are not only harmful to the environment, but also to the people living in the areas where they are dumped. The United States Environmental Protection Agency reports that only 8. percent of mobile devices are recycled. The rate for recycling computers is 38 percent. The rate for recycling paper? More than 63 percent. Recycled paper fills a variety of needs. Among others things, it is used to make dollar bills. This is especially appropriate considering the forest industry's $14.7 billion impact to our state's economy. In addition to the many environmental benefits, working forests also provide jobs to 90,000 Floridians. The connection between the environmental benefits and the economic impact cannot be emphasized enough. Sustainable forests arerot free; proper land management costs money. Our RIVER OEBI [i.n3 AI A +M Childcare/P] 'g reschoI .I S m m rPoSa - 225 *emleAv. Stark 904964883 government cannot afford to own or maintain all the forestland that is needed for environmental purposes or public use. Without the forest industry, private landowners cannot afford to either. The market for forest products is a key element in the ability to maintain forestlands. Without a demand for wood from mills and other forest product users, working forests would have to be converted to more profitable crops or to neighborhoods. As Florida becomes more and more urbanized, the pressure to grow houses instead of trees continues to intensify. Like all of us, forests must work if they are going to survive. By buying and using paper and other forest products, consumers help maintain the health and sustainability of working forests. In turn, working forests help maintain a healthy environment and strengthen the economy. Anti-paper campaigns might be trendy right now, but the truth is that working forests were "green" long before green was in fashion.

B-radfordCounty6Telegraph 904-964-6305 Chapman is the president of the Bradford Parents Athletic Association, which, as its name suggests, is a group of parents who decided to take on the responsibility of ensuring that the children of Bradford County had recreational sports opportunities. The work began before that opening day of March 9 rolled around, but the start of games, in essence, made the group's mission a reality. Chapman said as he watched a child throw the first ceremonial pitch, he sat back and said to himself, "Awesome." Though the spring season isn't technically in the books with all-star play now underway, Chapman can look back and say the season was a success. "I think things went really well," Cook said. "We had quite a few sign-ups-a lot more than we expected. Overall, we didn't have a whole lot of complaints. Everybody seemed happier this year." The recreation program in Starke has been in a transitional phase the last couple of years. In 2011, city of Starke officials determined they could no longer afford to operate the program. Cassels Christian Academy took the program over and operated it for a year before the Bradford Parents Athletic Association assumed control. Therefore, it was a bit of a surprise that approximately 300 children signed up to play in the spring. Cook said she thought having 200 children participate would be a good year. ' Chapman said he saw children participate this year who have been playing in other counties in the past. That's one of the organization's goals-to make it so local families don't want to take their children elsewhere. "My hope would be for every child who is age eligible to play here in Bradford County," Chapman said. Members of the organization would not only like to see Austin Corbin has his game face on.

(occasion ...formation Bradford County children play in Bradford County, but to see a family atmosphere return to the ball fields. Trish Cook, the Bradford Parents Athletic Association treasurer, said she remembers growing up in Brooker and'seeing 150 to 200 people attending youth baseball and softball games. As an adult, Cook has seen families drop their children off at the ball park, then leave to go eat at a restaurant. Many don't stick around at the ballpark while the kids are playing. In an attempt to get more people to stay, the Bradford Parents Athletic Association expanded the food offerings in the concessions stand. Cook said the organization underestimated just how popular that would be. Shopping trips to stock the concessions stand became more frequent and larger in scale. By the end of the season, more families were involved. Volunteers stepped forward to offer their services, plus a closing ceremony/family fun day proved to be so much fun that people didn't want it to end, Chapman said. "We almost had to tellpeople, 'OK, it's time to leave.' They were having a blast during that closing ceremony," Chapman said. Meeting the demands of increased concessions stand sales and creating team schedules to accommodate approximately 300 children was a lot of work, but no one in the Bradford Parents Athletic Association is complaining. "The work is hard for us, and it's a time commitment for us to keep up with," Cook said, "but I think we saw a really, really good indication of what can happen if we continue to maintain (the program)." Chapman said he knew he and the other organization members could successfully operate a recreation program. Talking to members of other parent- run organizations in Keystone Heights, Union County, Alachua County and other areas reinforced that belief. "We knew if they could do it, we could do it," Chapman said. That didn't mean there weren't any anxious times in the beginning. Cook said the year began' with organization members putting expenses on their personal credit cards just to get the program up and running. The key was generating revenue to sustain the program throughout the season. "You're really going week to week flying by the seat of your her students and herself, Mrs. McDonald has demonstrated that-with the right attitude and use of instructional strategies- anything is possible," Hartman said. "In a setting where one is confined to a cell for the majority of the day, her students have developed a love of learning and, more importantly, now have goals and expectations for RIGHT: Luke Stucky of the Rays rookie team. BELOW RIGHT: Carson Knight of the Yankees major team prepares to pitch. (Photos courtesy of the Bradford Parents Athletic Association.) pants, trying to make sure the concessions stand is producing enough money; we've purchased enough baseballs, purchased enough softballs, scheduled all the umpires we need and paying those umpires." Chapman said when organization members, took a close look at what the costs of electricity at the park could be, it was uncertain if they could "keep our heads above water." "We had so much help from the county and the city," Chapman said. "The city took over the light bill for the year. The county gave a large-sum donation. Thank God." Through it all, games and tournaments were successfully played. Chapman said most teams played approximately 20 games, noting the team he coached last year played approximately 14. Starke hosted a rookie tournament and a T-ball tournament. The Bradford Parents Athletic Association made sure every child who played in those tournaments received medallions, while teams received trophies. "We had a lot of out-of-town teams come over this year, and they were really impressed with the organization as a whole," Chapman said. As members of the Bradford Parents Athletic Association start to now focus on registration for adult/church league softball, they also cast an eye to the future. Chapman said making improvements to the ball fields and park are goals. He cited examples such as adding batting cages, using better clay for the infields, purchasing equipment to better maintain the fields and building new concessions stands. "We know it's years down the road," Chapman said, "but it gives us something to look forward to and build upon." Cook said the organization has been approached about offering themselves," she said. Hartman said that, as an educator, it was a "joyous occasion" to encounter an individual of McDonald's caliber. She said McDonald has, shown she is more than able to guide students who are capable, yet hesitant to believe in themselves-especially in a correctional setting. "Mrs. McDonald does this on r'>~ I) -- A soccer, which is a possibility. "If we can find the knowledge base out there and folks who- understand it, we'll take a look at it," Cook said. Witnessing the success of this past Cal Ripken/Babe Ruth season and envisioning a better. future have made the efforts of the Bradford Parents Athletic Association worth it. When asked if there was one thing he would change after looking back on how the organization's inaugural spring season went, Chapman replied, "The only thing I would've done differently would have been to try and get this five years ago." Joining Chapman and Cook as officers are Chris Olive (vice president) and Sheila Evans and Julie Martin (secretaries). The organization's board consists of: Heather Chapman (concessions director), Todd Gainey and Kevin .Crawford (fields and maintenance), Kevin Blankenship (softball commissioner) and Regina Gainey and Julie Morrow (softball members).

McDonald's skills as an educator and her encouraging demeanor have led her students to view their incarceration as something more than a completely negative impact on their lives. With the skills and change of attitude McDonald taught her students, "They may just make the world a better place," Hartman said. 5%0-I0% ! ~i~Ti5 */1 / SIOFF FOR NEW PATIENTS! t ; We will meet all 11,,rloverakingcaorpfo,.""-- com petitor prices!

Lmm 8B TELEGRAPH, TIMES & MONITOR B SECTION THURSDAY, JUNE 20, 2013 Memorable family outing, best fishing bets, tourney results As we continue marching toward' the hottest part of the summer, our local lakes will become a more attractive recreational alternative. The dredge work on the Sampson canal should be completed by Thursday, June 20. Additionally, the work on the Hampton boat ramp should be completed soon. Do not forget Lake Palestine and Lake Butler in Union County, Kingsley Lake and the Keystone lakes atop Trail Ridge. Protect yourself and the kids from the sun and remember dusk and dawn as good fishing times. Billy Belote's family outing Billy Belote has lived in Billy Belote and his grandson Elijah Mize show off a nice catch. Keystone since childhood, but he attended Bradford High School,in the late '60s, where he was a great football performer at quarterback. When his nephew Zach Wilson and Zach's two sons, Gabe and Kirrin, approached him about a fishing location, he had the perfect place in mind: a small, undisclosed (of course) Keystone lake that has held' its water level over time. Shortly afterward, Zach, along with Gabe and Kirrin, met up with Belote and his two grandsons, Caleb Mize, 8, and Elijah Mize, 4, for an afternoon of fishing. From the beginning, the kids did well, catching small panfish until an intrusive approach by a large bass, which attempted to take their catch. Belote subsequently changed strategies, attaching a larger hook, putting the recent catch on the hook and ABOVE LEFT: Caleb Mize hoists a lunker.

Kingfish love warm water, and the Greater Jacksonville returning it to the water under a bobber. Afterward, he gave the rod to Caleb with instructions for letting the fish run and setting the hook. After walking off a few yards, Belote heard Caleb scream in excitement about hooking a big one. Belote quickly returned to observe what he described as an exciting play with jumps, stripped line, patience and, finally, the lunker catch pictured in the accompanying photo. Success really breeds success in this case. The same routine was followed a second time, and Elijah was able to experience the same excitement. After that, Gabe, too was able to land a nice trophy. Kirrin followed the same process and did hook what appeared to be the largest bass of the day, but with an exciting head-shaking jump, it came unbuttoned. All fish were photographed and released unharmed for a future replay. On the way home Caleb said, "Pa Pa Bill, that was the best day ever." With that statement, Caleb probably summarized more family fishing trips than he realized that have created unforgettable memories. Best bet for fishing On the freshwater front, the only good time left this year to catch shellcrackers while bedding might by during the full moon in the latter part of the month. These fish are larger than bluegills, and they pull harder than any other freshwater panfish, including the larger crappies. Bass fishing is already more successful at dawn and dusk, and look for offshore, underwater structure, which will provide them a cooler habitat. Bluegills will be available anytime. Just keep your nose to the air and follow the pungent smell of spawning fish. The catfish bite in the St. Johns River remains active to this date. The saltwater scene will be more active at early and late times, but the, feeding times or tidal changes will have a greater impact on the fish bite, regardless of the time of day. Bob McNally of the Times- Union indicates that trout are most active at night under the dock lights in the St Johns.
