nated for yet another award -
the Florida Music Educators
Association's Educator of the
Year award
White was Sebring High
School's Teacher of the Year in

note of support for her selec-


tion.
She was
always one
to put stu-
dents first,
he .said.
"Her stu-
dents come
by the
WHITE house. She
has gotten
calls from
Saudi Arabia and Iraq where
former students are now sta-
tioned. So many of her stu-
dents have gone into musical
careers that you just know she
touched lives."

Residents gather to protect Fisheating Creek


By NANCY DALE
Special to the News-Sun
LORIDA Fisheating
Creek is the sole source of clean
water flowing into polluted
Lake Okeechobee, according to
Lee County "Smart Growth"
director Wayne Daltry, who
spoke recently at the "Save Our
Creeks" membership meeting
by the pond on Fisheating
Creek campground.
Many years ago when the
Seminoles lived. in the
Everglades and plied the "River
of Grass" that meandered from
Lake Okeechobee into Florida
Bay, it was crystal clear. Daltry
told the group that "after
decades of pollution, Lake
Okeechobee is a reservoir of
chemical run-off resulting in a
2006 legislative act calling for a
study committee to look at how
the lake operates and if it can be
'demucked' to provide seven
million people in Florida with
safe water."
.In recent years, "critical
mass" has been reached,
according to attorney David
Guest of. Earthjustice, a non-,
profit law firm that recently '
represented environmental
organizations in federal court
hearings, challenging the
pumping of polluted afterr into


Lake Okeechobee and warning
that Florida's largest surface
drinking water supply is
"threatening the health of thou-.
sands of South Florida resi-
dents.
Human impact
The cost of urbanizing
Florida is serious as population
growth and urban sprawl is a
"fast train" basically "out of
control" in terms of manage-
ment. Expansive urban projects*
-continue to light up Central
Florida for the first time'in his-
tory with housing, highways,
commercial development that is
quickly absorbing the last pris-
tine wilderness around the lakd.
The mystification of the "rural
consortium" that proposes a
north-south, coast-to-coast
Heartland toll road along the
unique paleo-islands of the
Lake Wales Ridge and across
Central Florida' north of
Fisheating Creek, if construct-
ed, may be ;the last dagger in'
what is ironically termed "the
heartland toll high\ a\."
The human impact of people
and hiegha.s criss-crossing
Florida,, according to the.
Environmental Protection
Agency National Coastal.
Conditions Report, represents


1,500 new home permits for
construction along the coast
every day; a 43 percent rise in
the number of vehicles in
coastal counties over 20 years,
and 2,000 acres of farmland lost
each day in coastal counties to
development.
In recent years, according to
Daltry, the cattle, citrus, sugar,
and farm industries have been
required to meet higher water-
quality standards in their man-
agement practices around the
lake but urban developments
with million dollar golf courses
are not listed .as part of the
group.
"The Fisheating Creek water.
shed is included in the State
Conservation Easement estab-
lished in 2000 and will maintain
some of the presrit water budg-'
et not' forecasting changes in
agricultural operations and
drainage," Daltry said. "Despite
prior controlled release,. to'
lower and raise \atier le'elk
i% ith seasonal drought or hurri-
canes, -it is not enough to dis-
solve the accumulated muck as
hurricanes churn up heavy
chemicals settled on the bottom
of the lake. The dramatic sea-
sonal fluctuations in water lev-
els and pollutants have con-
tributed to the economic decline


of peripheral communities that
depend on the lake for tourism
and fishing as it becomes a
stagment cesspool unable to
naturally dissolve pollutants."
Daltry believes the argument
purported to improve Lake
Okeechobee's water quality
includes building a berm in a
designated area by Fisheating
Creek and adding pollutant eat-
ing cat tails to filter water from
the lake into Fisheating Creek.
Another proposal is to create
"muck islands," requiring 400
million cubic yards or 120
square miles and 60 to 80 acres
of islands, then pushing the
,mounds to the shoreline with
muck rollers. No money has
been appropriated for either of
these projects.
New directors
.In other business, members
elected Helen Dixon (member-
ship chairman) and Amber
Braatz (treasurer) to fill posi-
tions on the board of directors.
Ellen Peterson and Rita
Youngman planned to attend an
upcoming meeting on Marco
Island to further discuss lake
issues.
The members also voted to
donate $50 to the Sierra Club in
support of the lawsuit against


transferring development units
to Syd Kitson, the urban devel-
oper of the Babcock Ranch.
The Sierra Club complaint,
filed with two organization
members from Charlotte
County where the bulk of the
ranch is located, claims that so
much development in such a
remote area will clog roads and
threaten water supplies and
water quality. The anticipated
population of the new city is
45,000, twice the size of
Naples.

According to the Sierra Club,
the Babcock project could also
spawn spin-off developments
into Glades, Hendry and Lee
counties.

The county filed an expedit-'
ed hearing that the Sierra Club
would accept if Kitson. pro-
duces all requested documents
including ones related .to
Kitson's internal analysis of the
proposed' deal and the funding
of Kitson's purchase of the
Babcock Ranch. The suit points
-out that the county granted an
exemption to the "Transfer of
Development Units" ordinance
resulting in,a $210 million loss
for taxpayers.
Part of the Babcock deal


involves the Rural Land'
Stewardship Program where
credits from environmentally
sensitive lands in a stewardship
area (a, "sending area" that is
assessed points for land based
upon environmental value of
wetlands and pristine wilder-
ness) are transferred to land (the
"receiving area" where mone-
tary value is negotiated between
the land owner and the develop-
er) approved for a higher densi-
ty development, preserving a
pristine, area in exchange for a
building permit elsewhere in a
county.
The proposed urban commu-
nity is, designated to be built on
17,800 acres with 19,500
homes and up to 6 million
square' feet of office, retail and
commercial space.

'News-Sun' launches 'society' page


Special /i-. iv.: -in
No. the Nti s-.Saifs new
"society page" \\ill not tell you
%%ho attended \esterda.',- high
tea or ho viore w hat at last
weekend's formal dance.
What it %\ill tell. ho\e\%er, is
- hat the A\on Park. Lake
Placid, and Sebring historical
societies are all about. their
activities, programs, museums
and archi%\es.
It takes time for a communi-
ty to become a community. And
that's the purpose of a historical
society: To collect, preserve and


showcase the documents, pho-
tos and artifacts of people and
events that have combined to'
create the places we call home.
Historical societies play an
important role. They give resi-
dents a sense of place, of how a
community got to be who and
where it is today. They serve as
'a major resource to the commu-
nities by preserving and pre-


-senting the past.
SThat's why the News-Sun' is
launching this occasional series
about the county's historical
societies.
The series, which begins.
toda. on page. 5A, is coordinat-
ed by News-Sun correspondent
Larry Levey. He's also presi-
dent of the Historical Society of
Avon Park. ..

Youth get well-deserved lesson


. Special to the News-Sun
Local businesses give back
to the community by partnering
with Highlands County Habitat
for Humanity.
Recently 20 youth from all
over the country came to
Highlands County for a
Summer Youth Blitz build.
Eveleth Well Drilling taught
a drilling class. This is a lesson
that most never experience in
their lifetime, though most live
in homes with wells. Todd
Eveleth of Pete Eveleth Well
Drilling Inc. gave a detailed
illustration, as well as explicit
instructions on the installation
of a well, on site.
During this time, the youth
learned the depths of a normal
well in this area along with
other pertinent information,,
regarding wells and their usage.
The youth, as well as, every-
one at Highlands County
Habitat for Humanity appreci-
ate the efforts from Eveleth for
taking the time to show young
people how hard it is to get
drinkable water for the citizens.

Ready to go back to school


Meder returns to downtown Saturday cruise


Speiial to th News-Sun
SEBRING When folks
turn out for the monthly Second
Saturday Nite Cruise on the
Circle this Saturday night,
they'll be hearing a familiar
voice.
John Meder, morning disc
jockey at 99.1 FM WWOJ, will
be taking over the microphone
for the August gathering.
Meder retired from the event
two years, ago but said he was
looking forward to reprising his
role as the "voice of the cruise."
"I really enjoyed doing the
cruise but it just got to be too
much at the time but I have to
admit I have missed doing it.
and it'll be fun to come back for


a while," he said.
Meder will be standing in for
Cohan Radio Group news
director and talk show host
Barry Foster who had to bow
out due to a previous commit-
ment. Foster promised to be
back in September to emcee the
second annual Love Bug
Jubilee, which continues as part
of the monthly cruise.
Started a decade ago, the
cruise on the Circle has become
a staple in the series of gather-
ings of custom, classic and vin-
tage cars trucks and vans.
%which occur at %anous times
throughout the weeks around
Highlands County
With the impending demise


of the Sebring Downtown
Merchants and Professional
Association, the event is being
taken over by the Greater
Sebring Chamber of
Commerce.
Organizers hope to add a lot
of new ideas and themes to the
event.
"We're hoping to keep the
Corvette night in January and
the Truck Invitational Jin
January and February, with a
'race-themed cruise for the
March event to tie in with the
historic races and the 12 Hours
of Sebring." Foster said.
The cruise is from 5-9 p.m.
the second Saturday of each
month.

A member of the 82nd Airborne Division Chorus squaresaway his red beret Thursday at the Avon Park
Air Force Range, after making a training jump before several hundred former members of his unit. The
chorus, shortly after its 800-foot jump, sang several songs including its official song, 'All American
Soldier,' for the 60th annual convention of the 82nd Airborne Division Association.

Mark L. Stock, commander,
2nd Battalion, 504th Parachute
Infantry Regiment, said after he
addressed the veteran members
of the association. "Our para-
troopers had to adapt, change
their time lines, use their bump
plans and conduct in-flight rig-
ging."
I The 82nd had been allocated
ers" two planes for this mission, but
lost one because of mainte-
nance. So, instead of flying two
C-17s from Pope Air Force
S Base near Fort Bragg with
___ more than 300 paratroopers,
they flew the one plane, send-
ing it back to get the rest.
Doing so meant that some of
a* the airborne soldiers wouldn't
make the mission, however
most did.
"I always tell my troops to
be prepared for their mission,
but be flexible," Stock said,
explaining that every jump is
S- training, even when done as a
demonstration.
-* The "bonus" he said is that
S- his soldiers will get to spend
.- .the rest of ite weekend in
Orlando. where they'll stay at a
Florida Army National Guard
Armory for free and get to
attend association events and
- tourist destinations.
* -- "The inspiration goes both
S- ways," said Stock, who's been
in the Army for 17 years. "The
a veteran's are proud of them and
the current soldiers take pride
S in those vwho came before."

How many Red Seas have you traveled through?


Do you have an attitude of
gratitude or are you a walking,
talking, defeated soul, always
grumbling, complaining with a
spirit of dissatisfaction? Me, I
have so much to be ecstatic
about. But I couldn't do it by
myself. I had help. Can you
guess who?_
While attending elementary'
school in Jamaica, I was taught
the correct way to cross the-
street. To this day I practice this
exercise. Always look to the,
left. Look to the right and look
to the left again.
Saturday was no different. I
looked to the left, looked to tibe
right and then to the left. I was
about to reverse out of a park-
ing space at a local store in
Avon Park. following the exer-
cise. when out of nowhere
stepped two females pushing a
baby in a stroller.
Seeing how close I had come
to injuring them I looked to the

What with all the national
and international crises facing
this country, it.is easy to over-
look what is happening locally.
There are two critical issues
that local citizens should study:
education and the county budg-
et (impact fees). .
Two of the candidates for the


was a clear sunny day. All I
could say -was a song I'd
learned while attending Sunday
school in Jamaica. "Jesus
Savior Pilot Me." With flash-
ing hazard lights. I parked on
the nearest embankment and
%waited for the rain to subside. I
knew if I continued someone
could hit me from behind or I
could hit someone.
MNI 12-year-old %went to New
York City. His dad, along w ith
family friends, went camping in
upstate New% York. As Benjamin
recounted the store. while rid-
inm on the ATV he noticed what
appeared to be a rock. On his
wa\ back. the object wjs turned
into another position.


It was a sleeping bear.
Going back to the campsite
he told one of two kids who
were part of the trip. The kid
decided to investigate, rode the'
ATV close to the animal and
startled him. The bear began
running in his direction.
Frightened, the child could
barely warn Benjamin about the
angry bear. But God's hedge of
protection was around him and
it extended to that child, offer-
ing additional protection. I said,
'Thank you Jesus." .
How about you? What are
you thankful for? Like the chil-
dren of Israel, how many Red
Seas has God delivered you
through? Has he delivered you
and you are still grumbling?
Like Daniel in the lion's den.
how\ many lion's jaws has God
kept shut for you? Like the
three Hebrew boys, how many
fires has God stood in %with
you? Like the woman with the
issue of blood, how many
issues has God brought you
through ?
Seen times in silence, the
people %walked around the walls
of Jericho before it collapsed


and the city was captured. How
many walls has God broken
down for you? Walls of preju-
dice and shame.
Like Jonah in the gut of the
big fish, how many gutters has
God delivered you from? Like
David and Goliath, how many
of your enemies has God deliv-
ered into your hands?
In life we all face obstacles.
Indeed one of these examples
of God's divine intervention,
you -have experienced. Have
you been thankful or are you
still grumbling, murmuring
negatively? God's hand of pro-
tection has been there for me
and has been there for you.
Give thanks with a grateful
heart.

two gentlemen for file years

and done that' in serving the
school and community. Andy,

this is not the time for on-the-

Jack Richie has been

effort to research and know,
about dozens of issues haye

the needs and interests of ordi-

As the saying goes, no one
person can do everything, but
his leadership skills have
helped to develop committees

goals to meet those needs and
interests of residents. The
Highlands County Home

such organization.

Gun dealer

facing problems

Editor:
(News-Sun publisher) Chip.
Wigginton's July 2 column on,
concealed carry permits seems
to imply that Maryland is a gun
control state. Only criminals
have guns in Maryland, he tells
us. He seems to prefer the law
in Virginia. Certainly mail:
order guns from Virginia have-
made people everywhere less
safe.
Actually. Maryland has a
concealed carry law not that
different from those of Virginia
or Florida. However, Maryland
allows towns and counties to
have gun laws while Virginia
has squashed local power on
the subject. In other %words,


Maryland allows towns to
respond to local problems and
trusts them to make sensible
decisions.
One of the most notorious
gun dealers in the country,
Lou's Loans of Pennsylvania,
was shut down by the Bureau
of Alcohol, Tobacco and
Firearms as of July 31. The
ATF found 239 violations of
federal la%\ and at ,least five
cases -of selling guns to straw
purchasers. Over a five-year
period from 1996 to 2000, 441
guns used in, a crime were
traced back to Lou's.
Unfortunately, 43 gun dealers'
still in business had still more
guns Used in a crime traced to
their stores. :
The Brady Center is suing
Lou's for selling multiple guns
to a trafficker, resulting in the
death of a 14-year-old boy. The
National Rifle Association is
trying to get a law through
Congress that would ban all
such lawsuits, depriving vic-
tims of justice.
The Brady Bill makes it pos-
sible to stop gun sales to those
previously deported as aliens
and. those beingmonitored for.,
connections to terrorism.
Only recently, the press
failed to tell us much about the
NRA's efforts to get the Florida
Legislature to establish a right
to bring loaded guns into work-
places. This would certainly
have endangered all Floridians.
It was defeated due to the influ-
ence of the chamber of com-
merce.

Moving a mountain


I owe my friends a case of
beer.
Forget that. I owe them a
keg, six platters of buffalo
wings and a trip to Vegas -
each.
They helped me move a one-,
bedroom, ground-floor 'pile of
junk from Sebring into a three-
bedroom, second-floor, bigger
pile of junk in Winter Haven.
I share that space with my
new wife. There's our room,
guest room and a junk room.
I never thought I had much
stuff before now. I used to live
out of a Volkswagen.
I kept college books, snacks
and extra clothes behind' the
back seat for between. class
breaks. The seat folded down'
for; even more room. I could
pack all I needed for a weekend
inside one bookbag. Now I
can't even pack an apartment
inside of a month.
Most of my furniture, from
college. until now, came from


hand-downs or hand-
offs. The furniture I
bought includes a
lamp (broken), col-
lapsible shelves (full),
a computer desk
(demolished) and an
old bed and dresser
($50). I still have the .
dresser, for now.
The rest of my stuff REa
consists of old books,
magazines, papers, Phil
VHS, CDs and DVDs
- none of which I've
read or watched in the
last year and not enough
shelves, desks, cabinets, tables
or boxes to hold them all.
Unlike the rest of my family,
I haven't reached the point of
paying for movers to handle
such a load. Just bribe friends
with pizza and beer.
Jeff helped niove my sleeper
sofa once already. He's not
doing it a third time. .
Dan and Kevin had to work

that day. Dan lent his
Expedition. I paid
the gas.
Wayne and Ryan
had to work that
night, so they left
after the seventh
load.
, Dave promised to
spend time with his
wife and kids. He left
when it got dark.
I will reward them
for helping. How

moving is dangerous. In col-
lege, everything I had was light,
and folded up. I slept on a
futon, an air mattress, or a cot
with sleeping bag. Now, my
wife and I have a king-size,
four-poster from her place. I
fought the boxspring getting it


of junk


off the trailer. It landed a good
punch to my nose and forehead.
I bled for a couple of days.
Two days after that, I hit my
head on the wall after stumbling
over boxes in the dark. I could
have left a light on, like the fish
tank, but the beta fish would
have banged his head against
the glass all night, fighting his
reflection.
Better to damage my head
instead.
Since the move, I made at
least five trips to Sebring to tie
up loose ends and get things I
left behind the old apartment.
My bdxes now make a 12-foot-
tall island in the junk room.
If you're moving in the near
future, take niy advice. Leave it
behind. Make the next person
deal with it.

News-Sun to get married and
take a job with, the American Red

The mystique

of trains
As a child, while sitting
waiting for; a train to finish
going through a crossing,
my folks and I would count
the cars. As I got older, the
counting got fancier, such
.as keeping separate tallies
of how many truck carriers,
refrigerated cars, coal cars,
etc., went by. For details,
see www.cvsr.com.
Annually, my parents,
their best friends and I
would travel to Cleveland
and spend a day holiday
shopping. The Sterling
Lindner Davis Department
Stores were famous for
their holiday tree. '.'the.
tallest indoor tree in the
world." I still hae a post-
card in mN collection
sho~ ing this phenomenon.
Of course. Mr. Jingeling

Whenri was a :ipho-
more in high school,.
instead of our usual trek to
Cle% eland. we to6k a train
from the station in ddwn-
town Canton, Ohio, to
Pittsburgh to spend the day
holiday\ shopping At that
'time, the large department
stores would have animat-
ed holiday\ scenes in their
% %indo ws. Those %. indo\s
meant the holidays v.ere
coming and it was time to
prepare mi, \%ish list and be

Outir fanuil had a tradi-
Lion of annually either pur-
chasing or making a ne".
ornament for our tree. M
tradition of collection, orna-
ments started during a trip
to Frankenmuth, Mich.
,. 'ws'\ .'\\ tnlk etniilulli orl ,I I
can remember w which orna-
ment I bought in Pittsburgh
for the family. The orna-
ment \%;as translucent silver
w ith the a ord "Peace"
S\ritteu in several different
languages. Yes. we still
ha\e the ornament all these
)ears later.
Apparently. the train nde
to Pitt4bureh made fuch an
impression on me that
\\ hen a friend planned a
trip for me. as a birthday\
surprise, it included a train
ride back from Pittsburgh
We took a bus throue.h the
rollimir hills of Ohio. stop-
ping at triall to' n.- to pick
up passengers,. then arrived
in Pittburgh. This trip,
though, the Pirates had just.
won the World Series.
What a party.
We rode the Duquesne
Incline, had a candlelight
dinner at the top of the
mouritain, then headed for
PRR Station, \\here % e
boarded the return train for
Canton. What a wonderful
gift. Search JdogpiltL om
for "Piusburgh Incline"" and
then follow the irtal-
tourist link.
Our friends also took the .
train through the Canadian
Rockies. Ever since seeing
their pictures from the trip
and hearing about the
obser action car in which
the\ would d ride for hours, I
have known I want to
make the same trip some-
day (www.freshtracks.

through the Rockies on

can only imagine what it

those towering, majestic

DIVERSIONS


Ferrell's fiery flailing funny


The last one to jump off of
the man-child train this summer
is Will Ferrell, which is fitting.
Out of Adam Sandler, Vince
Vaughn, Jack Black and Owen
Wilson, he is the probably the
funniest, depending on how you
like your scatological humor
served.
So versatile is he as a
comedic villain ("Zoolander,"
"Austin Powers,") and as a
cameo journeyman ("Wedding
Crashers," "Starsky & Hutch")
that you could quite reasonably
shove all of his films into a self-
contained cinematic genre.
No one can look straight into
the camera and tell poop jokes
quite like Ferrell, and seriously
gentlemen, can we ever get
enough of that?
"'Talladega Nights: The
Ballad of Ricky Bobby" takes a
healthy portion of Ferrell's
"George Dubya" from Saturday
Night Live and puts him behind
the wheel. The film follows an
innocent and .dopey Ricky
Bobby from his humble begin-
nings in the pit crew to his
climb atop the NASCAR uni-
verse.
Abandoned by his father at
age 10 and raised by his moth-
er, it's the classic story of boy
meets girl, boy loses girl, boy
delivers pizza on a BMX bike
and runs around in his under-
wear. For NASCAR fans, it is a
special treat.
For those who just think of
NASCAR as the punch line to a
Jeff Foxworthy joke, it is equal-
ly enjoyable.
Ricky Bobby is given an
opportunity to drive the

car during a race and seizes the
moment. The faux adult bever-
age logo is just about the only
fictional brand featured in the
movie, so inundated is it with
product-placement and trade-
mark iconography.
Bobby and his best friend,
teammate Cal Naughton, Jr.
(John C. Reilly), skyrocket to
superstardom. Bobby marries a
bombshell trophy wife, fathers
two irreverent and foul-
mouthed children named
Walker and Texas Ranger and
goes about his glamorous life
winning races and shilling for
feminine products.
Things get dicey when
French racing' champion Jean
Girard (Sacha Baron Cohen)
arrives hell bent on dethroning
Bobby. Get ready for all the
France-bashing you can 'stand,
because "Talladega" ,doesn't
pull any punches, both literally
and, figuratively. There's a
ridiculous bar fight,,a hysterical
wrestling match with Karen the
Cougar and a lot of "shake-and-
bake" fist bashing between Cal
and Ricky.


After Bobby wrecks his car
while trying to overtake Girard
at Lowe's Motor Speedway, his
ensuing fear of speed and imag-
inary fire plunges him into dire
straights.
He has paraplegic delusions,
his best friend moves in on his
wife and he is forced to rekindle
a relationship with his deadbeat
dad (played by Gary Cole and
looking like a cross between
James. Woods and Mickey
Rourke), who tries to coach
Ricky back to the top.
The absurdity of the plot is a
perfect fit for a racing comedy
and a familiar format for
"Anchorman" and "Old
School" fans. "Talladega" takes
aim at the ceaseless corporate
sponsorship in NASCAR
(Bobby plugs PowerAde While
sa ing grace) and the shallow
self-involvement'of it's most
visible stars.
It also takes advantage of
Ferrell's unique combination of
naive, artificial seriousness and
knack for physical humor. The
fact that he's a large guy makes
his flailing and gesturing even
funnier, and his expressions

fessional team of Nell Hays
and Scott Todd took center
stage in the first day of the
seventh edition of the

of their morning and after-
noon matches in spectacu-
lar fashion as the pro team

ing four-ball segment,
Hays-Todd roared back
from three down with eight

NFL

Culpepper


to play in


Dolphins'


opener
By STEVEN WINE
Associated Press
DAVIE Daunte
Culpepper has received med-
ical clearance to take a hit or
dish one out.
The Miami Dolphins plan to
play their new, surgically
repaired quarterback in
Saturday's exhibition opener
against Jacksonville, coach
Nick Saban said Thursday.
Culpepper will be exposed to
contact for the first time since a
knee injury ended his 2005 sea-
son with the Minnesota Vikings
last October.
Dolphins tight end Randy
McMichael said there's no
need to worry about his 265-
pound teammate's durability.
"I think Daunte will proba-
bly go find somebody to hit
before they hit him,"
McMichael said.
When Culpepper tore three
ligaments in his right knee, he
was told recovery could take.a
year or more. The Dolphins
acquired him in March, unsure
whether he: would be available
for the start of the regular sea-
son Sept. 7.
Nearly two weeks into train-
ing camp, Culpepper has yet to
miss a workouts
"He has done everything in
practice that he needs to do,"
Saban said. "And he wants to
play."
From the time Culpepper
joined the Dolphins, teammates
expected him to be ready for
the start of the season because
of his dedication to rehabilita-
tion, McMichael said.
"We saw the way he worked
when he first came in' here,"
McMichael said. "It was hard
to believe he had such a devas-
tating knee injury, because he
worked, so hard and moved so
well."
Like Miami's other starters,
Culpepper is expected to see
only brief action.
"To actually have, him out
there is very exciting for us,"
McMichael said.
"And I know it's exciting for
him."
Saban said the Dolphins'
three other quarterbacks will
also play new backup Joey
Harrington, Cleo Lemon and
Brock Berlin.:
The risk of a setback for
Culpepper wouldn't be any less
if he waited another week to
play, Saban said.
Culpepper hasn't talked to
reporters since the first camp
workout July 29. He said then
that he drew satisfaction from
his speedy rehabilitation.
"Every day I heard people
say, 'He's not going to be
ready,'" Culpepper said.
"I was ready to show that the
hard work I've put forth is pay-
ing off."


By SCOWT DRESSEL
Sports Editor
SEBRING Several age group
titles are up for grabs as the Sertoma
Junior Golf Tour heads into its final
showdown this weekend at Sebring
Golf Club.
The two-day Tour Championship
has a maximum of 15 points up for
grabs, meaning four of the eight age
group titles could be decided by what
happens over the final 36 holes of the
summer.
That also means that four golfers
head into the finale with nothing but
showing off on their minds.
Rocky Khara has already locked up
the boys 17-18 age group with 75
points, which is 28.5 points ahead of
his nearest competition of Justin
Painter and Roben Griffin, who are
tied for second.


Trenton Moon has the biggest lead
of the Tour, having 70 points to his
credit for a 37-point cushion over
Joseph Degenaro in the boys 11-12
group, while brothers Tyler Hewitt in
the boys 9-10 and Kyle Hewitt in the
boys 6-8 both enjoy the same insur-
mountable lead of 17.5 points.
Joel Walkup, the Tour director, said
he's not surprised by any of the names
at the top of the standings.
"All of the players that are up there
right now had the potential to win," he
said. "Rocky is 14, but he's up (in the
16-18, group) because he plays that
good and we expected him to do well.
"I am surprised at some of the peo-
ple who are in second, third, fourth and
fifth."
Walkup referred to players like
Painter, Greg Gentry and Blake Liles,
who all played up an age division for


better competition and performed well.
Gentry is still within striking dis-
tance in the boys 15-16 group, sitting
in third place just 11.5 points behind
leader Austin Smith and 4.5 behind
second-place Aaron Snyder.
The girls 14-18 group has the tight-
est race and the one most likely to see
some shuffling at the top of the stand-
ings before the weekend is over.
Jessica Williams holds a scant two-
point lead over Amanda Blocker, 60-
58, followed by Heather Brownell with
56 and Kayla Dunn with 51.

Youth Bowling Academy at Kegel pulls out all the stops


Special to the News-Sun
SEBRING September marks the
,start of yet another youth bowling season
at the Kegel Bowling Center in Sebring.
Sue Merritt, director of bowling opera-
tions for Kegel, has announced that she
will accept the position of junior program
director and has already signed and trained
a cadre of talented and certified coaches.
"This season is going to be a really
great blend of learning and fun," Merritt
said.
"We owe it to the parents and the kids to
give them the best education in the sport
possible.
"We hope to teach them not only how to
bowl their best, but all about the game,
teamwork and fair play. These are all tools
the kids can use in the future."'
Merritt, a silver-level Team USA Coach
and past pro bowler is only one of the
qualified instructors this season. Other


coaches include Joe Stacy, Kegel manager
and silver-level coach, and Kegel certified
coaches Mike Dulanski, Kimmie Robison,
Gene Tary and Brandon May, just to name
a few.
"The most exciting part about our
coaching lineup this year is that each of
these folks have talents in specific areas
that fit the needs of the kids," Merritt said.
"I am proud to say that we have an all-star
lineup of talent for the kids to tap into."
The program itself will include weekly
tips and on-lane coaching, free one-on-one
coaching and all kids no matter what age
"will have the chance to participate in local
and state tournaments.
The program is sanctioned by the
United States Bowling Congress, which
will qualify all youth bowlers for national
awards and scholarships.
"The program will be rigorous, no
doubt about that," Merritt said, "but the


kids will learn to bowl great scores, make
new friends-and learn how to be a team
player.
"The season will also include holiday
celebrations, youth/adult fun tournaments
and an exciting end-of-the-season-ban-
quet."
Kegel will periodically host fund-rais-
ers such as parking lot garage sales, Bowl-
a-thons, bake sales and car washes
throughout the season to raise funds to pay
for tournaments.
"Anything we can do to help the parents
by way of tournament and travel costs is a,
pleasure," Merritt said.
"But anyone at all who would like to
make a donation for the program or spon-
sor a team are surely welcome."
Registration for the Kegel Junior
Academy is from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. on
Saturday, Sept. 2. For more information,
call 382-2643.

Continued from D
girls who showed flashes of
potential in 2005.
"Our strength this year is
going to be our aggressiveness.
That's the key. Getting behind
the ball and being in the right
place at the right time," added
Hipps.
If Avon Park can combine its
aggressive nature with
improved skills and fundamen-
tals, the sky's the limit.
"Basically in practice we're
going over different plays that
will allow our girls to be better
attackers. That's one key we
have to work on as far as weak-
nesses is just getting there and
spiking the ball in the right
places. I feel like I have a lot of
motivated girls to do what it
takes to win."
Although the group is com-
prised of athletes that have
spent a significant amount of
time. together, teamwork is
always an area where improve-
ment can be made.
"These girls work. well
together," Hipps said, "but
they've got to get to where they
communicate a little bit more."
