MARBLE FALLS — When members of First Baptist Church of Marble Falls gather at Johnson Park on Oct. 6 as part of the church’s 125th anniversary, the Rev. Ross Chandler will challenge the congregation to not think of themselves as the oldest organized church in Marble Falls, but

as a new one. “I’m going to challenge our church to look at us as a church plant,” Chandler said. “We want to have that excitement, that zeal, that those who met for that first time in Johnson Park and started this church had. The reason it worked for them is they looked at it as a church plant.” About 26 people gathered in 1888,

BLUFFTON — While some might only notice the rows of headstones and a few monuments at Bluffton Cemetery, Llano County resident Alfred Hallmark sees much more. “There’s so much history here,” he said, standing among some of the headstones. “Each one of these people, they had stories to tell. They make up our area’s history.” Bluffton Cemetery, located on RR 2241 about two miles west of

BURNET — Sue Kersey parlayed her passion for gardening into becom-ing a Master Gardener, a Master Naturalist and an active member of both the Highland Lakes Native Plant Society and the Wildflower and Birding Society. “When I moved to Texas, I discov-ered that native plants are the real way to go because they supply all the food and the nectar and sources in habitat,” she said. “There was a lot I didn’t know about Texas. I needed to be a better steward of the land. I needed

CLASSES

sat on railroad ties and started First Baptist Church of Marble Falls. At the time, about six homes sat within the city limits. Despite the humble beginnings and constant challenges (the Great Depression and a fire that destroyed the church), First Baptist grew and prospered. Chandler said the reason for the church staying relevant and vibrant was, and is, simple. “God had a hand it in,” the pastor said. The church is celebrating its 125th anniversary over a three-week period. On Sept. 29, the congregation held History Day. On Oct. 6 at 11 a.m., the congrega-tion will gather at Johnson Park, 230 Ave. J South, for Revival in the Park. “That’s where it all started,” said Gary Stone of the church. “First Baptist was the first organized church in Marble Falls.” Church and city grew up togeth-er. Marble Falls formed in 1887 with the church a year behind. Stone said the Methodists actually had a church building in Marble Falls prior to First Baptist organizing, but it was part of the local circuit preacher’s path and not an organized congregation. “They met when the minister was in town,” Stone said. “But the Methodists

allowed us to use the church when they weren’t meeting in it.” Eventually, First Baptist found its only facility in then-downtown Marble Falls. The congregation continued to grow. The Great Depression presented challenges, but Chandler said the mem-bers always kept God and a servant’s heart at the forefront, which helped sustain them. In 1958, the Rev. Max Copeland came to Marble Falls from Briggs along with his wife, Glenna, to First Baptist of Marble Falls. He served as the pastor until a little more than a decade ago, when he stepped aside. Though, “retirement” does not describe Copeland’s role in the community and the church since stepping down from the pulpit. He continues to teach a Sunday school class and minister to residents across the Highland Lakes. On Oct. 12, the church and the community will honor Copeland and his wife with a homecoming and a reception at the Worship Center of the church, 501 Twelfth St., at 5 p.m. “We’re going to celebrate his 55 years in ministry,” Chandler said. “He and Glenna mean so much, not just to this church but this entire community.” Copeland led the church through one of its most trying times. In March 1962, a fire destroyed the church build-ing. “It was a very tough time for the church,” Stone said. “They said if we

could have captured all the tears when the building burned, it would have extinguished the flames.” The congregation had a choice: fold or rebuild. God led them to a little pasture northeast of town. It wasn’t even within the city, Stone said, but that’s where the congregation chose to rebuild. That 12th Street location is where First Baptist currently sits. Now, the church prepares to make another move. In 2003, the church pur-chased property in the La Venta area located just south of Lake Marble Falls on the west side of U.S. 281. On Oct. 13, after a celebration worship service at 10:20 a.m. at the current location, the congregation will travel to the La Venta site for an all-church homecoming and a groundbreaking. “We’re inviting anybody who ever had any connection to First Baptist to come out and join us,” Chandler said. Though First Baptist Church has grown over the years, Chandler said he wants the community to know the con-gregation still holds on to the truth the initial members clung to when sitting on those railroad ties under the pecan trees Sept. 9, 1888. “We went them to know we believe the story of Jesus Christ is true and that story is transformative in people’s lives,” Chandler said.

SPECIAL TO THE PICAYUNE

BURNET — Author Peter R. Rose will discuss his book “The Reckoning: The Triumph of Order on the Texas Outlaw Frontier” on Oct. 10 at the Herman Brown Free Library. The free program is part of the Coffee Talks series at the library, 100 E. Washington. Refreshments will be served at 1:30 p.m. followed by the presentation at 2 p.m. Early arrival is recommended. The geologist-turned-historian will talk about the Edwards Plateau and how its unique landscape made it possible for outlaw bands to prey on settlers without punishment, according to a library news release. In the wake of the Civil War, the region was racked with disorder, including violence by vigilante bands, Indian raids and a range war between Germans and Anglo-Celtic settlers, allowing outlaws to take advantage of the chaos, according to the release. Hiding in the canyon lands around the forks of the Llano River in lawless Kimble County, families of criminals

Texas outlaw frontier on Coffee Talks schedule at Burnet library

banded together to rob stagecoaches, raid cattle in several counties and intim-idate and murder settlers, according to the release. The criminal confederation even took over the Kimble County gov-ernment. The lawless period culminat-ed in the Texas Rangers banding with settlers to fight off the criminals. Rose’s maternal grandparents came to the Kimble County frontier in 1891, and Rose still owns and operates a ranch there, according to the release. He draws on family historical material, his work in geology and Texas Rangers files to create a well-documented, entertaining book. Books will be available at the pre-sentation for purchase and autograph.

MARBLE FALLS — The Marble Falls High School football team didn’t play last week, but the coaches were at a few games. Head coach Todd Dodge divided his coaching staff into scouting teams to attend all three District 25-4A con-tests Sept. 27, the night of his squad’s bye. Now, the Mustangs (2-2) focus on the final six weeks of the season with the aim of competing for the district crown and qualifying for the playoffs. And it starts Oct. 4 against Cedar Park High, the Class 4A Division II defending state champion. “Over the next six weeks, we have to keep improving and go try to whit-

tle us out three wins in six weeks,” Dodge said. “Four would be better. That’s what it’s going to take to get a seat at the table.” The Timberwolves (4-1, 1-0) enter the contest with a 30-17 overtime vic-tory against Leander last week. They are led by senior quarterback

Nate Grimm, the district’s most valu-able player last season. He leads a potent rushing attack that has 2,075 yards on the ground this season. Grimm has 76 rushes for 442 yards and five touchdowns and has completed 44 of 93 passes for 755 yards, eight touchdowns and two interceptions. Junior running back Joey Carter has 54 carries for 321 yards and a touchdown, while senior receiver Bill Estevanott has 19 catches for 232 yards and two touchdowns for the Timberwolves. Cedar Park scores an average of 36 points a contest but gives up 18 points. The Timberwolves’ only loss was to Abilene Cooper, 24-21, on Sept. 6. The Cougars connected on a field goal as time expired. “I think Cedar Park is better at this point than last year,” Dodge said. On Sept. 29, Marble Falls coach-es dissected their notes about each of the district opponents. Dodge said he already exchanged video with Cedar Park on Sept. 25, so players have had their scouting reports on the Timberwolves for a couple of days. The Mustangs travel to Cedar Park’s John Gupton Stadium, located at South Vista Ridge Boulevard and East Park Street in Cedar Park, for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff Oct. 4.

Burnet takes two-game winning streak into bye week


BURNET — The Burnet High School football team is enjoying a two-game winning streak on their bye week. The Bulldogs (4-1) defeated Taylor 34-24 on Sept. 27 for their second winning streak of the season. “You always want to go into your open week on a couple of wins,” head coach Kurt Jones said. “Our mentality will be good in terms of we need an open week to try to get past bumps and bruises. There’s extra time to get better at some things we need to get better at, and we’ll start to get ready for Brownwood. Brownwood is a good team.” Burnet will travel to Brownwood on Oct. 11 for the District 8-3A opener. Jones said the Bulldogs are being drilled on things fans may take for granted such as route timing, tech-niques and footwork. “Blocking out of the skill positions like the receivers and the backs,” he said. “We want to pursue and tackle better on defense. We need to make strides there as well.”

Against Taylor, the Bulldogs rolled to a 20-2 lead by the half. Jones credited the defense for the lead. “I thought the defense dominat-ed and played well the first half,” he said. “In the second half, we scored when we needed to, but I never felt like we put it all together.” Jones thought they left points on the field. “We weren’t as good as we could have been,” he said. “We missed on a couple of scoring opportunities. It left us close for the rest of the night.” He credited the Ducks for record-ing plays that got them back into the contest and getting receiver My’lik

Kerley and running back Isaac Franco involved. Kerley caught a pass for 59 yards that set up a 33-yard touchdown run by Franco. “They always have some talented skill kids,” Jones said. “They always have good speed.” Burnet senior quarterback Derek Kiser completed 24 of 28 passes for 284 yards and four touchdowns, while senior running back Trenton Hafley had 13 rushes for 101 yards and senior receiver Blayne Parisher caught nine passes for 109 yards and three touchdowns.

MARBLE FALLS — After sur-viving a Schertz John Paul II oppo-nent that simply wouldn’t give up last week, the Faith Academy football team is refocused and ready for the challenges that come with homecom-ing week. The Flames (5-0) welcome San Antonio St. Gerard at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 4 to Pony Stadium on the Marble Falls Middle School campus, 1511 Pony Circle Drive. Against John Paul II, Faith faced almost a mirror image of its offense. But St. Gerard (1-4) will bring a pass-oriented scheme into the contest, Flames head coach Russ Roberts said. “We know they have great receiv-ers,” he said. “If their quarterback has the skill level to get the ball to them, we’ll have to work harder.” The Royals’ only win came against Brooks Academy, 44-32, on Sept. 13. Junior quarterback Jubias Cloud has completed 10 of 17 passes for 253 yards and has 14 rushes for 123 yards and two touchdowns for St. Gerard, while senior running back Devonte Walker has 10 carries for 208 yards and two touchdowns. Sophomore receiver Zeke Cardenas has caught four passes for 117 yards, and junior receiver Alex Mack has two receptions for 114 yards. Faith enters the contest after a 28-21 win against John Paul II. The Flames scored all their points in the first half. Offensive penalties contrib-uted to drives stalling out for Faith in the second half. Meanwhile, the Guardians scored

on their first offensive series of the third quarter. But they turned the ball over on downs when the Flames made defensive stands. During the final series, Faith senior lineman Mitch Earwood grabbed John Paul II junior

quarterback Jeffrey Bradley for a sack on fourth down. “We definitely saw some posi-tives,” Roberts said. “We didn’t let them come back in the second half. We can see we grew up.” He said he thought his players’ con-ditioning played a factor in the out-come, noting things went the Flames’ way on game-changing plays. “I do think we’re in good shape,” Roberts said. “In the fourth quarter, I think our conditioning helped us. They lost two starters. We were more durable.”

LLANO — After five games and with two offensive starters unable to fin-ish the contest against Fredericksburg last week, an open date couldn’t have come at a better time for the Llano High School football team. The Yellow Jackets (2-3) lost to the Billies 16-13 on Sept. 27. Players have been focusing on the basics during the week and are getting much-needed rest, head coach Craig Slaughter said. “Fundamentals and working on our execution,” he said. Slaughter won’t be sending any coaches on scouting trips Oct. 4 because it’s a District 8-3A bye week with no games scheduled. Instead, the Yellow Jackets have gotten an early start on examining the other district members, which include Liberty Hill, Lampasas, Gatesville, Burnet and Brownwood. Llano is at Liberty Hill on Oct. 11. Against Fredericksburg, the Yellow Jackets came back to tie the contest 7-7 in the third quarter thanks to a 51-yard pass and catch from junior quarterback Holden Simpson to senior receiver Chance Ware. Then, the two teams exchanged touchdowns. Senior receiver Isaac Hutto hauled in a 16-yard touchdown pass from Simpson to trim the deficit to 14-13. Llano decided to go for the two-point conversion, but the pass failed with 5 minutes 33 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter. The Jackets defense forced a punt at midfield, which was downed at Llano’s one-yard line. The Billies recorded a safety on the next play with 3:55 left to seal the victory. Simpson completed 12 of 21 pass-es for 141 yards and two touchdowns for Llano. Senior running back Carter Tatsch had 15 carries for 34 yards, while Hutto caught four passes for 67 yards and a touchdown and Ware had three receptions for 64 yards and a touchdown. Senior quarterback Layton Rabb was still recovering from an appendi-citis and didn’t play. Meanwhile, Tatsch left at the half because of an injury, Slaughter said.

Llano heals and works on basics during bye week


MARBLE FALLS — As 16-year-old Clayton Green maps out a race in his mind, he runs through every possible scenario — to the point he even predicts what his fellow racers will do. “I’ve raced enough against most of the other racers that I pretty much know what they’ll do, and then, I can set up for it,” said Green, a Marble Falls High School junior. In a race where a hundredth of a second separates winning and second place, a quick reaction can determine not only a race but an entire season. As a race car driver in the Legends Pro Class division, Green understands how reaction time matters. He also knows distractions while driving can lead to serious consequences. Recently, Green signed on with the organization Finish Alive Stop Texting (FAST) to promote an anti-texting-while-driving message. Green’s mother, Dana Green, said her son’s racing abilities caught the attention of FAST, which led to the arrangement. Clayton isn’t new to the sport. His racing résumé started about 10 years ago when he caught the bug from his father, Steven Green. Clayton’s dad was a regular competitor around race tracks, and he took his son along with him. But as a child, Clayton often found himself stuck in the trailer away from the action. Sitting around and waiting wasn’t Clayton’s idea of having fun.“I just got tired of sitting in the trailer and told my dad I wanted to race,” Clayton said. So Steven did the one thing he thought would appease his son. He stuck him in a go-cart and let him race. Clayton’s ability quickly grew. From go-carts, he graduated to Bandoleros, a type of car that is fairly small (70-inch wheel base) and uses a 30-horsepower Briggs & Stratton engine. As a middle school student, Clayton captured the national championship in the Bandolero class, which led him to move up to the Legends division.

A Legends car resembles a small roadster with a low-slung hood and aggressive styling. It relies on a 122-horsepower Yamaha motor for speed. The entire class started in 1992 as a way to allow more people to get into the sport of racing. And while some people do it for fun, Clayton developed skills that put him in the driver’s seat of a potential racing career. After a couple years of racing Legends cars, he moved up to the Pro Division this year and often found himself ahead of the pack. He won a race on Labor Day weekend at the Houston Motorsports Park, where he netted $4,000. “If you look at what he’s done and accomplished as young as he is and what he’s up against, it’s really amaz-ing,” his mother said. To compete takes more than Clayton’s commitment; it also takes the willingness of his parents to sup-port him and travel across the country with him. Over the past several years, the Greens have chased checkered flags across Texas and the Southeast. While the bulk of the racing takes place in Texas, they do occasionally make trips to Georgia and North Carolina. “We race 48 out of the 52 weekends of the year,” Dana Green said. “We’re a family team. We’re a budget team. These other racers, they have crews. We’re out there together.” “Yeah, I have a dad and a mom,” Clayton said with a grin.

Dana Green added that a lot of the recent success comes with the support of Marble Falls High School staff. She praised the willingness of Principal Manny Lunoff and her son’s teachers to work with him so he can maintain his weekend race schedule. The overall championship is decid-ed by points acquired during the sea-son. The more races a driver enters, the more opportunities to earn points. With that in mind, the advantage clearly favors East Coast — especially North Carolina — drivers. “In Texas, you have a race just about every weekend,” Dana Green said. “In North Carolina, they can race five days a week.” Whatever their system is, it’s work-ing. As the 2013 season winds down, Clayton finds himself in the No. 2 or No. 3 positions at races despite several of his competitors being older and more experienced. Clayton believes the national cham-pionship is out of reach this year, but he’s aiming for at least No. 2. Along they way, he hopes to spread the message of the dangers of texting and driving. Ironically, Clayton, though 16, doesn’t hold a driver’s license. He’s just too busy racing. Still, he fits the mold of the spokes-person for whom FAST wants, his mother said. “They want somebody like Clayton who’s young and races because other kids, hopefully, will realize if this high-ly-skilled race car driver can’t text and drive, how do they think they can?”

Dana Green said. As for racing, he’s eyeing a move to an entire different class: the modi-fied. As a NASCAR class, it’s a step toward the major leagues. While he’s solidified his name as a top-level com-petitor in Bandoleros and Legends cars, Clayton’s dreams are even bigger. “Where do I want to go with this?” he mused, when asked about his future racing plans. “For every kid who does my sport, it is to make it a profession. Maybe it’s not Saturday night racing, but one of those professional divi-sions.” Go to www.finishalivestoptexting.org for more information on FAST and www.uslegendcars.com for more on Legends cars racing.

DEATH NOTICES

Bluffton and 11 miles east of Llano, is the final resting place for people who took part in history. One of the markers honors Isaac Byler Maxwell, who was born in 1837 and died in 1931. Up until his passing, he was believed to be the oldest living resi-dent of Llano County. During his life, Maxwell not only witnessed history, he made it. “He actually founded Bluffton,” Hallmark said. “He named it after his home, I believe, in Arkansas.” Maxwell moved to the Llano County area in 1854, but his travels weren’t over. He served as a scout for the frontier units during the Civil War. After the war and three terms as justice of the peace, Maxwell headed to Austin as a member of the Legislature. “He was the one who convinced the state to use granite from Llano and Burnet counties to build the state Capitol building,” Hallmark said. “They were considering stone from Indiana, but he helped put a stop to that.” Along with Maxwell, many veter-ans of historic battles and wars rest in Bluffton Cemetery. Those include Thomas Gooch, who served during the Mexican War; Tom Herridge, who served during World War I; and David Hill, who fought at the Battle of San Jacinto during Texas’ fight for inde-pendence. “There’s so much history packed into this little cemetery. And over there,” Hallmark said, pointing off to

She was actually born one year before the signing of the Declaration of Independence.” Hallmark, who has relatives bur-ied in Bluffton Cemetery, believes preserving and protecting it is important for historical reasons as well as cultural. The cemetery began 149 years ago in the original Bluffton community. But when the Lower Colorado River Authority built Buchanan Dam in the 1930s, the state moved the community and the cemetery to their current loca-tions. All but one grave was moved from the basin to either the cur-rent Bluffton Cemetery or another cemetery. Since then, the Bluffton Cemetery Assocation continues to provide burial plots to people. It’s

not a sale with deed but a right to be buried there, Hallmark said. That way, if a person decides not to use the plot, the association will “buy” back the right for the original fee. “We rely on the burial (right transactions) and donations to main-tain the cemetery,” he said. On Oct. 5, the Bluffton Cemetery Association is holding its annual business meeting at the cemetery at 10 a.m. Association board members hope for a big turnout because the more people who are interested in the cemetery, the better the organi-zation can take care of the facility. Along with the business meet-ing, the board will present a pro-gram, “History of the Old Bluffton Cemetery.” Hallmark has diligent-ly worked to compile the history of the old and new locations. He’s

even working on a book about the cemetery and the community. Four years ago, he published the book “Old Bluffton Revisited” about the original community. While it’s required plenty of work and dedication, Hallmark said recording the old and new Bluffton histories is important for past, pres-ent and future residents. “So much history took place here,” he said. “I think we tend to overlook the importance of places like Bluffton and the people who lived here because they may not be well known. But if you just look around here (at the cemetery), you’ll find a lot of people who took part in history. They all have stories to tell.” Go to www.blufftoncemetery.org for more information.

LLANO — One of Shannon Kaspar’s passions was running. The Llano Elementary School teacher enjoyed hitting the pavement and didn’t mind doing it for a good cause, includ-ing an annual school supply drive fun run. But several years ago, the beloved teacher passed away. The First Baptist Church of Llano’s Women’s Ministry decided to honor Kaspar by naming the annual school supply 5K after her. “Oh my, she was a teacher at Llano Elementary School for over 20 years,” said Brenda Park, this year’s Shannon Kaspar 5K for School Supplies organizer. “She loved to run. She died suddenly about five years ago, so the ministry decided to name the race after her.” The annual Shannon Kaspar 5K for School Supplies is Oct. 19. It starts at the church’s activity center, 907 Berry St. The runners hit the road at 8:30 a.m. “It’s a fairly easy course,” Parker said. “We have one big hill, though, called Water Tower Hill.” While organizers hand out medals to the top three finishers in each age group (men’s and women’s divisions), Parker said the heart of the run is to have fun. “We hope people and families come out and enjoy the event,” she said. The money raised from the run goes to the Women’s Ministry’s school supply fund. Parker said Llano school counselors typically stock a closet at each campus with school supplies. During the year, counselors dole out those supplies to students who need them but might be unable to afford them. As the school supplies dwindle, the counselors reach out to the ministry for assistance in refilling the closets. “A campus counselor will contact one of the (ministry members), and we’ll get them the money to buy more supplies,” Parker said. People can register up to the day of the 5K. Registration is $25 for adults, $15 for youth 18 and younger and $55 for families.

to learn to conserve water resources.” She honed her skills by participat-ing, co-organizing and volunteering at a local native plant festival, now in its fourth year. The Native Plant Festival, with the theme “Bring Back the Monarchs,” is a free event from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m Oct. 5 at Inks Dam National Fish Hatchery. The hatchery is located at 345 Clay Young Road off Park Road 4 south of Inks Lake State Park in Burnet County. A garden tour at three homes is scheduled noon-4 p.m. and costs $5 with all proceeds going to the non-profit Highland Lakes Native Plant Society.

Exhibits at the hatchery include live butterfly habitat displays, an information booth, a tree adoption giveaway, a nature walk on the grounds and birding activities. “Each year, (attendees) get very excited to try these things in their own yards,” said Terri Whaley, the event publicity chairwoman. “So this year, we hope we have a lot of people who go home and try their own monarch waystations.” Cathy Downs, chairwoman of the Bring Back the Monarchs to Texas program, will speak at 10:30 a.m. in the education building at the hatchery. “Texas is a critical habitat for the monarchs. They need to be able to get nectar and reproduce in this state when they’re leaving Mexico and heading up north to Canada and when

they’re going back home to Mexico,” said event co-chairman Fred Zagst, who also is president of Highland Lakes Native Plant Society. Attendees will discover a little effort makes a big impact. “There’s a lot people can do on a small scale to make a difference in this huge state,” Kersey said. Festival attendees also can pur-chase native plants and seeds to help launch habitats of their own. “Just get started. If you see native plants, you start to realize how gor-geous they are, especially in our drought,” Kersey said. “They’re the only thing that looks really good, unless you’re watering a lot, and we need to be very conscious of that.” Call (512) 755-2557 or go to www.yantislakesidegardens.com.

MARBLE FALLS — While many religious rallies rely on well-known speakers to provide inspiration, an event Oct. 9 is using a different method in connecting with its young listeners. “One of the things we found is that youth, especially teens, pay more attention and are more likely to take action when (a message is) coming from their peers,” said Barney Sarver, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes

representative for the Hill Country. FCA is holding Fields of Faith from 7 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Oct. 9 at Mustang Stadium, 2101 Mustang Drive. It’s free and open to the public, but its target audience are young people. During the event, area youth will share their testimonies and stories with their peers. “There’s something about young people sharing their faith that really impacts people,” Sarver said. FCA spearheaded the movement several years ago, but local churches

typically handle the organization of the night. And it’s not just the Hill Country taking part. Sarver said Fields of Faith events are taking place the same night across the country. The Mustang Stadium program will draw students from Marble Falls, Burnet, Llano and Johnson City schools. Fields of Faith is an interdenomi-national rally. Twelve area youth min-isters are working together to organize the Mustang Stadium event. The idea, Sarver said, is for kids to invite their friends to hear from them-selves and other youth about how Jesus impacts their lives. “A lot of kids, especially those who didn’t grow up in church, aren’t going to set their feet inside a church,” he said. “This is a neutral site, where they can come, hear from other kids and come to understand who Jesus is and what he can do in their lives.” The first Fields of Faith was in 2004 when more than 6,000 youth gathered on athletic fields across Oklahoma, Texas and Kansas. Two years later, the event went nationwide with more than 50,000 people attending. Sarver said in 2011, when he was in South Texas, the event drew more than 15,000 students. “It’s incredible to see all these kids come together and hear their friends, teammates and peers share their testi-monies,” he said. Contact Sarver at (956) 821-8757 or [email protected] for more information or to get involved in FCA.

MARBLE FALLS — Penny Miller recalled a moment when she realized just how important her congregation’s Blessing of the Animals was for pet owners. “One time, a pickup drove in a bit early, and we went over and asked if we could help,” said Miller, a member Trinity Episcopal Church in Marble Falls. The driver shared his sad tale with Miller. The night before, the man had taken his dog to the veterinarian’s office, where the animal died. When driving through Marble Falls on his way to bury the dog on his ranch, the man saw a sign hung across RR 1431 about Trinity’s Blessing of the Animals service. “He wanted to know if our priest could bless his dog, even though it was dead,” Miller said. The priest did, and the man drove off to bury his companion. “It meant so much to him to have his dog blessed,” Miller said. “I said, ‘Now if that doesn’t make it all worthwhile.’” Animals and pets, though not human, fill a major part of people’s lives. And Trinity Episcopal recogniz-es that connection with the church’s annual Blessing of the Animals at 10:30 a.m. Oct. 6. Miller said the plan is to

hold the service in the parking lot of the church, 909 Ave. D. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, everyone will just head inside, animals and all. The Blessing of the Animals tradi-tion stems from St. Francis of Assisi, a monk from the 12th and 13th centuries who was known for his love of nature and animals. He is the patron saint of animals and the environment. “We celebrate St. Francis’ feast on Oct. 4, so we hold the blessing on the closest Sunday to that date,” Miller said. The blessing isn’t just for congrega-tion members and their pets. Everyone

is welcome to bring pets for the special Fransican blessing. “Pets are part of people’s family,” she said. “It’s fun to see that side of our members and the community. We form special bonds with our pets. We just love to see how much (of a bond) from owner to pet.” All pets should be leashed or con-fined for safety reasons. The church is accepting donations of old towels, pet supplies, pet food and pet toys, which will be given to the Christ-Yoder Animal Shelter in Buchanan Dam. There also will be treats for the pets and “their people.”

FINANCIAL FOCUS: How Should Risk Tolerance In�uence Your Investment Decisions?

As an investor, how much risk can

you tolerate? It’s an important

question — because the answer

can help you make the right

investment choices.

If you have a high tolerance for

risk, you may be able to look past

short-term downturns, retain your

confidence in your

investment mix and focus on the

long term and the potential for a

recovery. But if you find yourself

losing sleep over losses and

questioning whether you should

be investing at all, then you may

have a low tolerance for risk.

But no matter if you’re fairly

tolerant of risk or if you’re risk

averse, you won’t want to respond

by investing either too

aggressively or too conservatively

— because either of these

extremes can lead to problems.

Instead, let your risk tolerance

guide your investment choices —

but not dictate them with an “iron

hand.” Moderation is generally a

good idea in all activities — and

it’s the same with investing.

BY KEVIN ATKINS

Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy is a serious dose-limiting side effect associated with several com-monly used types of chemotherapy. CIPN occurs in 30-40 percent of patients receiving chemotherapy. The degree of neuronal damage depends on many factors, including the chemother-apeutic agent, the duration of therapy, the cumulative dose and the concomi-tant use of other neurotoxic agents. Overall, CIPN can be extreme-ly disabling; therefore, it would be ideal to prevent it before it occurs. N-acetylcysteine and glutamine show promise in preventing CIPN. Finding effective treatment for established CIPN also is very important. Topical therapies using medications such as amitriptyline, ketamine and baclofen

have been studied for the treatment of neuropathic pain and have been found useful in the treatment of diabetic neu-ropathy, postsurgical and posttraumat-ic pain, hyperalgesia and postherpetic neuralgia, so they might be helpful for CIPN. No significant systemic absorption or toxicity was associated with topical preparations, which potentially offer advantages over oral medications. Ask your pharmacist for more information.

Since 1994 Atkins has owned and operated Atkins Pharmacy Services, 701 Third St. in Marble Falls. A second pharmacy is at 2607 U.S. 281 North. Call (830) 693-2972 or visit www.atkinspharmacy.com.

This includes the washing of automobiles, trucks, trailers and other types of mobile equipment. This does not apply when conducted on the immediate premises of a commercial car wash or commercial service station.The refilling or adding of water to swimming and/or wading pools is prohibited except on designated outdoor use days between the hours of 7:00 pm and 11:00 am. This does not apply to public swimming and/or wading pools not equipped with filtration and recirculation equipment which must be drained and filled daily pursuant to health regulations. The use of any ornamental fountain or other structure making similar use of water is prohibited.

5-Day Watering Schedule:All customers or persons who use the water utility of the City of Burnet will be required to participate in the 5-Day Watering Schedule for outdoor uses and only on designated water use days.

Outdoor uses include watering lawns, shrubs, and other types of outdoor vegetation, washing vehicles, boats and trailers, the use of landscape sprinkler systems and irrigation, recreational use of sprinklers and outdoor showers. The above restrictions do not apply to the irrigation of commercial nurseries; however, these establishments will curtail all non-essential water use and voluntarily follow the restrictions set out above.

LLANO — When Rhonda Herridge decided to throw a fundraiser for Faith’s Door, a residential facility for women looking for a fresh start, she did it in a big way. “I wanted to do something both to raise funds and raise awareness about what Faith’s Door is, and it turned into this,” Herridge said. “This” is Faith’s Door Family Fun Day at the Oxford Ranch, 11380 Texas 16 about 10 miles south of Llano. The event is Oct. 4-5, but most of the activities fall on Oct. 5. Organizers are holding a chicken-fried steak dinner 6-8 p.m. Oct. 4 at the ranch. Tickets for the dinner are $8 for adults and $4 for children 12 and younger. But the big day is definitely Oct. 5. For a parking fee of $5 per vehicle, attendees can enjoy activities such as lawnmower racing, a washer tourna-ment, mud volleyball, a Kiddy Karroll, a poker run, a barbecue cook-off and lots of live music. Some activities may require a fee to participate. “It’s really going to be a fun day,” Herridge said. “This is the first time I’ve ever seen mud volleyball, but I heard it’s lots of fun.” The Lone Star Mower Racing Association is sanctioning the lawn-mower race. It will be the first points race of the 2013-2014 season. “The layout is great out there,” said Dennis Drake, a racer and association member. “Some of these mowers, if you put them out on the street, can

reach up to 70 miles per hour.” On the course, however, the racers probably won’t reach those speeds but will easily hit 40-plus mph on straight-aways. Herridge said her hope is to use the event to let people know about Faith’s Door. “It’s basically a residential program for women who are looking for some help or a way to get a fresh start,” she said. Faith’s Door has space for up to six women at a time. During their stay at Faith’s Door, the women learn skills that help them make it on their own, whether it’s life skills or job-related skills. “While some women may be try-ing escape a bad relationship, that doesn’t need to be the only reason to

come here for help,” Herridge said. “It could be people are just struggling to get from point A to point B and need a little help. This is an opportunity so they can take that next step in life.” After a woman’s stay at the facility, Faith’s Door staff doesn’t wash their hands of her. “We do follow-ups with the women,” Herridge said. “We don’t just send them out on their own. We want to help them be successful.” During the Faith’s Door Family Fun Day, people can learn about the organization’s mission while having, well, lots of fun. For more information on the event or Faith’s Door, call Herridge at (512) 809-0285.

HOOVER’S VALLEY — Imagine you’re on the TV show “Survivor,” and, during tribal council, you and another contestant are in danger of being voted off. Host Jeff Probst hands each of you a firestarting kit and says whoever builds a fire first and burns through a rope gets to stay and play another day. Could you do it? If not, Inks Lake State Park inter-preter Sean Jones has just the work-shop for you. The park is hosting a new survival series with the first les-sons demonstrating how to start a fire, without matches or lighter, of course. While you could use the skill on “Survivor,” Jones and the park staff sees it as a bit more pragmatic. “We’ve found that one of the barri-ers to getting outdoors and enjoying the outdoors is people find they don’t have the skills to really enjoy the outdoors,” Jones said. “During the survival series, we’ll introduce skills people can use outdoors.” The firestarting lesson is 5-6 p.m. Oct. 5 and Oct. 26 at the amphitheater in Inks Lake State Park, 3630 Park

Inks Lake survival series to teach back-country skills

Road 4. “Sometimes you don’t have a lighter or matches, so this will be for showing people how to start a campfire with, maybe, a few things they find in their daypack.” The workshops cost $3 in addition to park entrance fees. “We want to help people feel com-fortable outside,” Jones said. “We want to help people develop those skills so they’ll enjoy the outdoors beyond their campsite or vehicle.” The fire starting program is one in a series of topics. Jones said the next one in November likely will highlight edible plants. “When we do our (guided) hikes

out here, people perk up when we start talking about edible or beneficial plants,” he said. “People like to learn about the historic uses of plants. They are interested in learning which ones are edible.” Throughout the fall and winter, the topics will change. Jones said partic-ipant interest will drive some of the selections. “We’ll see what people want,” he said. “We’ll see what the feedback is and go from there.” Go to www.tpwd.state.tx.us/state-parks/inks-lake or call (512) 793-2223 for more information or updates.
