IF IT ARRIVES LATE, PLEASE CONTACT YOUR POSTMASTER. Serving Gilchrist County and Surrounding Area for over 89 Years 207 North Main Street, Trenton, Florida 32693 By Cindy Jo Ayers It is just a matter of time before Lethal Bronzing Disease affects Cabbage Palm trees in Gilchrist County. The University of Florida IFAS reports that currently Lethal Bronzing can be found in sixteen different species of palms including Sabal Palm also known as Cabbage Palms in Florida. Lethal Bronzing was once known as Texas Phoenix Palm Decline and it was discovered in counties in the Tampa area in 2006 and since that time it has steadly overtaken the southern part of the state. In 2018 Lethal Bronzing was found in Alachua County. The disease is caused by a phytoplasma which is a type of bacteria. The Phytoplasmas live in the part of the plant where the sap is transported. The Phytoplasmas are transmitted to palms by piercing- sucking insects that feed on the plant. Leaves of the bottom layer will begin to turn brown and in about three months the leaves will be brown and dying all the way to the top. This Disease will kill the tree in a short time. Cabbage trees have been a big part of the history of the state, not only is the Sabal Palm aka Cabbage Palm our state tree, but it has been a food source since the earliest pioneers first settled the state. Swamp Cabbage has been served with fried mullet for generations at family reunions and church dinners. The descendents of the pioneer Florida families still cook and eat swamp cabbage today. Hearts of Palm salad, which was first developed by the late Bessie Gibbs at the Island Hotel in Cedar Key, featured the raw palm heart from the cabbage palm. It is recommended that infected trees be removed and destroyed. Disease killing Cabbage Palms Two Cabbage Palms believed to be affected by Lethal Bronzing in this area. Ken and Kay Corbin awarded FWC Landowner of the Year Award Commissioner Joshua Kellam (former), Vice Chair Michael Sole, Kay and Ken Corbin, Chairman Robert Spottswood, Commissioner Gary Lester and FWC’s Executive Director Eric Sutton. At its July meeting in Stuart, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) presented Ken and Kay Corbin of Trenton with the Landowner of the Year award for the couple’s generous support of the FWC’s Youth Hunting Program of Florida. This program provides safe, educational, mentored hunts for 12 to 17 year olds so they can experience hunting and learn about conservation. The Corbins, who own a cattle and hay farm in Gilchrist County, open their property so youth, who otherwise might not have the opportunity, can experience hunting through the Youth Hunting Program. “Those of us who can, need to do our part in helping foster the hunting legacy by getting kids in the outdoors and teaching them about nature and wildlife,” said Ken Corbin, a veteran of the Air Force and retired City of Trenton employee. “By volunteering to introduce youth to hunting, we can help uphold hunting and create a new generation of conservationists.” Since 2010, Ken and his wife, Kay, have hosted 13 fall youth hunts on their property. During these hunts, more than 40 youths have learned about wildlife, conservation and safe, responsible hunting. “The Corbins are involved throughout the entire process and do everything they can to help the kids have a good experience, including planting food plots, scouting for deer, repositioning ground blinds and having camp fires after the hunt,” said Tyler Allen, Youth Hunting Program of Florida coordinator. “Families like the Corbins, who open their properties to provide outdoor opportunities to youth, are the reason our hunting traditions will continue on.” “We just absolutely love being able to get kids involved in hunting and the outdoors through the Youth Hunting Program of Florida, and our biggest thrill is when a kid harvests their first animal,” Ken and Kay Corbin said. “We both get so much satisfaction seeing kids get excited learning about conservation.” Wilcox man arrested and charged with Child Abuse On August 5th, 2019, Deputy Rebecca Cumbie responded to a disturbance in the Wilcox area of Gilchrist County. Based on her scene investigation, Scotty Dale Hagan, a white male 33 years of age, was arrested and charged with abuse of a child. This arrest began an additional intensive investigation with both GCSO Investigator Sergeant Windy Ponce and Department of Children and Family Services. This investigation resulted in search warrants being issued and executed, collection of numerous items of evidence, and ultimately the post Miranda confession of Scotty Dale Hagan for sexually abusing not one, but two minor children. During this investigation it was determined that another individual residing with Hagan, Georgianna Barnes Paul, a white female 37 years of age, was also complicit in Hagan’s abuse of the children. She too was arrested and charged with Child Abuse. The hard work of the GCSO Patrol Division, Florida Department of Children and Family Services, and the GCSO Investigations Division rescued these children from unspeakable abuse and exemplifies the One Team One Mission objective of Sheriff Bobby Schultz to protect our community. Scotty Hagan was charged with Sexual Assault on victim over 12 years of age. Hagan’s bond was set at $1,000,000. Georgianna Paul was charged with Child Neglect and her bond was set at $250,000.

    Food Collection for Tri-County area

    Team members from Trenton will be canvassing the Tri-County area throughout August, distributing food collection bags and gathering donations (non perishable items) for Tri-County food banks, one or many benefactors of Kindred at Home’s 15th Annual Food Drive.

    Kindred at Home and Kindred Hospice employees across the country are placing the food collection bags at healthcare and other facilities in their respective communities and will collect their “harvest” during the entire month of August.

    “Our caregivers often tap into community resources to best serve our patients and their families, so they know firsthand the demand for assistance placed upon food banks, pantries and other charitable organizations,” said Joanne Halter. Trenton Kindred at Home is “Making sure that the most basic component of good health and food is available for those in need and it is the right thing to do for a healthcare company like Kindred at Home and for the community as a whole.”

    Kindred at Home Trenton, Florida is collecting food for the Tri County area food banks to help support that organization’s work on behalf of individuals and families in the community unable to afford or access an adequate amount of food.

    Kindred Home Health provides in-home skilled nursing, physical and occupational therapies and related services to residents of the Tri County areas. The Trenton office is an affiliate of Kindred at Home, the nation’s largest provider of comprehensive home health and hospice services. While its local office is staffed by area professionals familiar with the health needs of community residents, Kindred at Home’s national scope allows it to bring substantial resources to its local offices that other companies often cannot provide.

    Items can be dropped off at Kindred at Home located at 413 E. Wade St., Trenton. Call Joanne for nearest location 352-463-7411.

    Last week we took a short trip down to Ocala and on the way home we stopped off to have supper at Pearl’s in Micanopy. There is a good chance you have never heard of Pearl’s Barbecue because it is tucked away in the back of a country store just off US 441. Pearl’s Country Store and Barbecue is actually a very interesting place.

    Once inside the unassuming business, the first thing I noticed was a rack of books about Florida. The rack contained everything from A Land Remembered by Patrick Smith to Cross Creek Kitchen by Sally Morrison. There were several books about Majorie Kinnan Rawlings and her nearby home at Cross Creek. The store sold locally ground grits and meal and lots of salsas and jellies.

    We ordered pork ribs and brisket and sat down to eat our supper. Our granddaughter Allie was with us and she really liked her ribs and macaroni and cheese. The barbecue was really good, with a real down home smoky flavor. The portions were so big we could not finish our meals.

    A little after 5 p.m. a line formed to buy barbecue. Several groups of working men came to enjoy supper.

    I would say that Pearl’s is a working man’s sort of place. The barbecue was great, sides were just so-so, except for the macaroni and cheese which was good. I was disappointed in the banana pudding.

    If you are ever down that way you can try Pearl’s Barbecue for yourself, it is a located at 106 US-441 A, Micanopy, FL 32667.

    ---Just in case you missed it, this is

    my easy Banana Pudding Recipe. It is not an entirely from scratch recipe so its pretty quick to make.

    Easy Banana Pudding5 ounces cream cheese, softened1 ¾ cup milk1 3.4-ounce Vanilla Jell-o instant pudding1 teaspoon vanilla1 8-ounce Cool-Whip1 box Nilla wafers4 to 6 bananas, depending on size

    This turns out so pretty if you put this pudding in a clear glass bowl. I use my “Older than the hills” Sunbeam mixing bowl. A trifle dish works nicely also.

    Use a hand mixer or a full size mixer to beat the softened cream cheese until it is light and fluffy. Add about 1/4 cup of the milk and beat it in until it is smooth. Then add ¾ cup of milk and beat again until smooth. Next add the pudding and beat well. Then add the last ¾ cup of milk and vanilla. Once it is beaten smooth, fold half of the Cool Whip into pudding mixture.

    Place a layer of Nilla wafers in bottom of glass bowl, slice a layer of banana over wafers. Then cover wafers with 1/3 of the pudding mix. Repeat until you have 3 layers. Top the pudding with remaining half of Cool Whip. You can crumble wafers and sprinkle on top or even sprinkle chopped pecans on top to make it look pretty. Chill for a couple hours or more before serving.

    Carnival Comes to AyersGilchrist County Farm Bureau Earns Statewide AwardsMembers of the Gilchrist County

    Farm Bureau have earned high honors for their programs and activities during the past year.

    The local organization will receive Florida Farm Bureau’s Awards of Excellence in all five categories of operation evaluated: policy implementation, public relations, organizational management, education and leadership. This accomplishment reflects the vibrant activism of Farm Bureau volunteers in our community.

    Gilchrist County Farm Bureau President Gray Smith said, “As a new president of GCFB it is an honor to carry on the efforts of a proud tradition in our county. With the ongoing efforts of a new board,

    a vibrant and active YF&R group, and a new women’s group our folks have initiated a renewed commitment to increase the awareness of the importance and significance of agriculture in our county and state. I am confident that these groups will continue to expand their outreach and promote the ever changing industry of agriculture that our county has as its basic foundation.”

    The county Farm Bureau Awards of Excellence will be presented at Florida Farm Bureau’s 2019 Annual Meeting in Orlando on October 30th. This year 53 county Farm Bureaus have earned top honors in all five award categories, setting a statewide record.

    By Danette HydeFun fact #861 … August 1st – 7th

    is International Clown Week. When we became aware of this fun fact we decided to honor this by having an indoor Carnival for our residents. We are always looking for fun ways to bring a little happiness to our residents and what better than a Carnival and a clown. On August 7th we transformed our dining area with booths, games, prizes, goodies and of course a clown. It was so much fun for everyone involved. One of the best ways to make yourself happy in the present is to recall happy times from the past. The Carnival atmosphere brought back so many good memories of times gone by at Carnivals and visits to the Circus. It is hard to be sad when a clown is nearby. Patch Adams once said, “The role of a clown and a physician are the same – it’s to elevate the possible and to relieve suffering.”

    Residents entered the Carnival area and were given a fun bag so they would have something to hold all their goodies and prizes they were going to win. First stop was the ball toss, then duck pond, lollipop game, photo booth, tattoo booth and go fishing game. But the highlight was Cookie the Clown. Cookie made our residents balloon flowers for their wheelchairs and fun balloon bracelets. All you had to do was look at their faces to see that everyone was enjoying themselves.

    We always appreciate when Cookie takes the time to entertain our residents, staff and visitors. Cookie truly enjoys being a clown and making people of all ages happy. Cookie says, “If you feel young at heart it’s time to start being a clown.” It is a shame when she told us that fewer and fewer people today are interested

    in becoming a clown and that she would be happy to help anyone who thinks that they might enjoy being a clown. Feel free to reach out and contact me, Danette Hyde at Ayers Health and Rehabilitation Center (352) 463-7101 ext.117. I would be happy to provide you with the contact information for Cookie.

    It’s always fun to be a kid again and enjoy simple things like a Carnival and a clown. We never outgrow the wonderful feeling something like that can bring.

    FWC stays vigilant in enforcing airboat safety regulations

    The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) is responsible for enforcing airboat regulations that went into effect in July. Per F.S. 327.391, airboat operators carrying passengers for hire must complete an Airboat Operators Course.

    “Our officers will continue to be vigilant and proactive in checking airboat operators. In addition to routine checks, we’re launching a statewide detail to ensure compliance,” said Col. Curtis Brown, director of FWC’s Division of Law Enforcement. “We cannot overstate that with this popular recreational activity and economic opportunity comes our critical duty to protect boaters on Florida’s waterways.”

    A tragic airboat accident in south Florida was the impetus behind House Bill 1211, known as “Ellie’s Law,” requiring all airboat operators carrying passengers for hire to complete an Airboat Operators Course. At its June 2018 meeting in Sarasota, the FWC approved the course requirements. There are currently six course providers for this requirement.

    “We expect the number of course providers to continue to increase,” Brown said. “This will provide more

    opportunities for members of the industry to comply with regulations and protect the safety of their passengers.”

    Dunn Statement on Air Force Reconfirming F-35s at Tyndall AFB

    Congressman Neal Dunn (FL-02) issued the following statement in response to the Air Force’s announcement reconfirming the decision to base up to three F-35 squadrons at Tyndall Air Force Base: “Today President Trump and Vice President Pence reaffirmed their commitment to fully rebuilding Tyndall Air Force Base for the 5th generation fighter by 2023. This announcement gives certainty to our airmen at Tyndall and to the Panhandle as we continue to rebuild from Hurricane Michael,” said Dr. Dunn. “It’s clear the Air Force and the Trump Administration recognize the importance of investing in Tyndall as we modernize our warfighters. I look forward to continuing to work with the defense community to bring these squadrons in for a landing.”

    Tyndall will become a purpose-built base for the 5th generation fighter with the addition of the F-35 squadrons. These squadrons will bring as many as 72 F-35s to Tyndall by 2023.

    Stopping bad guys from attacking innocent people

    What are the consequences of infringing on “the right of the people to keep and bear arms?” Could the consequences be worse than the problem we’re trying to solve?

    Amy Swearer, senior legal policy analyst at the Meese Center for Legal and Judicial Studies, and Lucas Drill, a member of the Young Leaders Program, both at The Heritage Foundation, wrote an article for The Daily Signal titled, “Guns Saved These Americans From Assault and Robbery In July.”

    They wrote, “In an effort to keep the national conversation grounded in this important context, every month this year we’ve highlighted just a handful of the many times law-abiding citizens have used their firearms in defense of their rights or the rights of those around them.”

    In 2013, researchers compiled data from a number of studies on gun violence in America. They found, “almost all national survey estimates indicate that defensive gun uses by victims are at least as common as offensive uses by criminals, with estimates of annual uses ranging from about 500,000 to more than 3 million per year.”

    Yes, people in America defend themselves with guns at least 500,000 times every year. To be clear, defense does not always indicate shooting the gun. Sometimes displaying a gun is enough to defend against an attack.

    In 2018, the Center for Disease Control released data showing firearms are used defensively about 1,000,000 times each year in America. In their article, Swearer and Drill documented a few cases of defensive uses of firearms last month. They also

    included links to examples in every month so far this year. One of these real-life cases answers the oft-asked rhetorical question of “why would anyone need an assault weapon with a large magazine?”

    From the article: “July 10, Summerfield, Florida. A disabled 61-year-old homeowner kept his AR-15 loaded by his bedside after a suspicious interaction earlier in the day with a man who was looking through the sliding glass door on his back porch. When the homeowner awoke to loud noises that night, he grabbed his rifle just in time to defend himself from four armed men who had broken into his home. He killed two of the armed intruders and sent the other two fleeing, until they were tracked down by a police K9 unit. Despite being outnumbered and wounded himself, the homeowner survived.”

    In this case, and many like it every month in America, a good guy with an AR-15 defended himself and stopped four armed bad guys. Swearer and Drill wrote, “These types of everyday, lawful gun uses are not something we can afford to forget in our desire to just ‘do something’ about mass public shootings, which, while statistically incredibly rare, still strike terror into our souls and break our hearts.”

    What are the consequences of infringing the right of law-abiding citizens to bear arms, even so-called assault weapons? The first murder was one generation removed from Adam. An assault weapon is anything a bad person uses to attack innocent people.

    Don’t be distracted by the bumper-sticker political rhetoric that threatens even more deadly consequences to law-abiding citizens who have the right to bear arms. Remember, stopping bad guys from attacking innocent people is the goal.

    Consumer Alert Massive Capitol One Data Breach Affects 100 Million Customers

    Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Jimmy Patronis is warning Floridians of a massive Capitol One data breach impacting approximately 100 million customers and reported as one of the top 10 largest data breaches ever. Capitol One stated “the largest category of information” accessed from applicants who applied for credit cards from 2005 to early 2019. This information includes names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, dates of birth and self-reported income. Reports estimate 140,000 Social Security numbers and about 80,000 bank account numbers linked to secured cards were accessed from credit card customers.

    CFO Jimmy Patronis said, “Unfortunately, data breaches are a common and frightening reality for consumers today. This is exactly why I will fight to make Florida one of the toughest states for ID theft penalties. Identity theft causes long-term financial ruin, and banks and companies trusted with our data must be held held accountable when data breaches happen. Every Floridian should monitor their credit cards and bank statements and report any signs of fraud or identity theft immediately.”

    4 Tips to Protect Your Personal Financial Information:

    Check your credit card activity often. Reviewing your recent account activity is fundamental to credit card safety. Most companies allow you to review transactions online or by phone. If your credit card company offers email or text alerts regarding unusual activity, sign up now.

    Freeze your credit. If you believe you’ve been the victim of identity theft, consider placing a free credit freeze on your credit file with each of the three credit reporting agencies (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion) to further prevent unauthorized credit report activity.

    Monitor credit reports. Constantly check your credit report for any accounts that scam artists may have opened in your name. Credit reports are available free of charge from each of the three national credit reporting agencies every 12 months. Visit www.AnnualCreditReport.com to pull your reports today.

    Be extra careful about emails and attachments. Avoid clicking on links or downloading attachments from suspicious emails that claim to be updates from any company connected to a data breach.

    Mary Virginia Hamilton Cannon

    Mary Virginia Hamilton Cannon, age 83, went to be with her Heavenly Father on Wednesday, August 7th. She was surrounded by the presence of God and both her earthly and heavenly family.

    Virginia was born on May 17, 1936 in Scanlon, Florida to Archie Elmo and Erma Hamilton. After two years of courtship, she married John David (J.D.) Cannon on June 11, 1954. They celebrated 65 years of marriage this year. God blessed them with four sons and one daughter.

    After Virginia graduated from Dixie County High School, she worked at Peaches Grocery Store followed by Cheeks Drug Store, Langston Insurance Agency and Hill Insurance in Cross City.

    Virginia was a faithful and loyal servant in all areas of her life. Some of the things she was passionate about was serving and loving the Lord, her family, her church family, praying, cooking, staying at the camp and telling riddles to her grandkids. She prayed and provided for those in need daily.

    Virginia was an active and devoted member of the Pentecostal Holiness Church where she served as Sunday School Teacher, Song Leader, Youth Director and Women’s Ministries President.

    Virginia is in heaven worshiping Jesus with her son Anthony Cannon.

    The Log Cabin Quilters met Thursday, August 8th at the Levy County Quilt Museum. Cheryl and Evelyn were busy working on their own projects. Several were busy reading or looking at the fabric. Lunch was great just sitting around the table talking.

    We had an awesome week with donations, several sewing machines and boxes of fabric came in. Thanks to all of you for supporting us. To our amazement, a 1940 Philco radio came in, it’s a 40-190 model that’s about 4 foot tall. The guys from Lancaster are hoping to get it to work. We’ve ordered replacement tubes (yeah tubes). It looks so perfect near the fireplace. We also added the wool rugs to the fireplace area.

    Thanks to the guys from Lancaster, we were able to hang a few more old quilts on the wall and our baby bed which is probably 50 years old or so was re-glued so we could move it much easier. With the help of Lancaster, we hope to impress our snowbird friends when they return. There are at least five volunteers coming up with ideas for the guys to work on. Thanks volunteers and the guys from Lancaster for your support.

    The two handmade wool rugs adds so much to the fireplace area. We have our rockers surrounding the rugs to keep most of the traffic off the rugs.

    Our Philco Model 40-190 radio brings back memories.

    The crazy quilt from last week is on loan from the H.S. Hatcher family. It was made by Alice Gertrude Cole Hatcher born in 1860.

    By Bob Denny Yes, it’s “back to school month.”

    Kids starting school will hear the question, “How was school today?” Do you have a young person who you care about who is heading off to school? Can you remember what a big step it was when you were there?

    School is such a major stage of life development. Students spend about a third of their daily lives at school. It brings awesome challenges to learn and grow, develop social skills, and get a common basic education of what it means to be human, and to become a functioning part of the real world and the culture we are born into.

    So you ask, “How was school today?” as if it’s perfectly normal and easy to face, even though it’s likely the most dramatic and demanding situation a child has ever faced. Surely you remember some of the challenges, fears, worries and difficulty adjusting to this new world of formal education. What answer do you get? “Fine.” I remember Mom or Dad asking me once or twice, over half a century ago. I quickly learned to respond, “Fine.” Any other

    answer always brought on a probing inquisition to find out what I was doing wrong, and often a sharp lecture on doing my homework, or how to handle any difficulty with social awkwardness, fears, disappointments or heartbreaks.

    I spent a few days walking the schoolyard during recess, like I had a place to go, with a tear in my eye, or feeling rejected or left out of a group. I remember getting punched for picking on another kid and getting my face slapped for getting too fresh with a girl classmate!

    What’s the problem? School is a standard, mandatory and controlled social environment. There are demands to learn to focus and pay attention, learn appropriate conforming behaviors, to keep up academically with other students, deal with authority and deal with the challenges of getting along with peers. Doesn’t that sound like one of the biggest challenges that we face in life?

    What can we do? How can we help? Kids need understanding, positive encouragement and support,

    and someone—hopefully a parent or parent figure—to help them survive and make the most of these precious formative years. Can you be that coach, partner and cheerleader who can help a child make the most of this most challenging stage of life?

    Kids need someone who has built a positive relationship and open communication with them. When you ask, “How was your day at school?” They need someone who is really open to listen to them, and who will respect and appreciate the answer. Be that caring person who wants to help him or her talk about their real, important and sometimes difficult problems or situations. Empathize. Don’t have “all the answers.” Be supportive, understanding and give them a chance to explore ideas for handling their own challenges. Don’t be a “rescuer” or jump in to fix it yourself. Help them see mistakes as opportunities to learn a better way, and to learn and grow from (we all make them.) Be that person in the child’s life who can help them learn how to make the most of what they’ve got to work with, to learn a positive way of living, make better choices, do the right thing, and to build that happy, successful adult life that we all deserve. You can make a big difference.

Failure to file a petition for an administrative hearing within the requisite time frame shall constitute a waiver of the right to an administrative hearing. (Rule 28-106.111, F.A.C.).
