SHERIFF’S OFFICE HOSTING OPEN HOUSE AT OAK HILL SUBSTATION

 

The Volusia County Sheriff’s Office is rolling out the welcome mat this week at its Oak Hill substation, inviting residents to stop by to meet and chat with the deputies who patrol the city. An open house has been scheduled for 5 p.m.-8 p.m. on Thursday. The substation is located at City Hall, 234 S. U.S. Highway 1.

 

In September, the Oak Hill City Commission began contracting with the Sheriff’s Office to provide around-the-clock law enforcement services to the city. On Thursday, residents are invited to come talk to deputies and the Sheriff’s Office’s Southeast Volusia law enforcement commander, Captain Shane Summers. Hot dogs and snacks will be provided. “We’re extremely pleased with the way that the City Commission and the citizens of Oak Hill have welcomed the Sheriff’s Office into their community,” said Captain Summers. “We want to make sure that we maintain an open dialogue with the residents so that they will continue to feel comfortable reaching out to us if they need assistance, have a public safety concern or have information about criminal activity to report. Maintaining that personal rapport with the residents that’s essential to good police work is what Thursday’s open house is all about.”

 

Oak Hill became the fourth city in Volusia County to contract with the Sheriff’s Office for law enforcement services. The other three are Deltona, DeBary and Pierson.

SAVE THE DATE!
APRIL 20-21, 2012
IN BEAUTIFUL PORT ORANGE, FLORIDA
8 MINUTES FROM THE BEACH!

 

March 29 to April 1
Spring Fair to bring new look to Port Orange
 
The sidewalks and park area around Port Orange’s City Center Lake will bloom with arts and crafts and old fashioned fun March 29 to April 1 as the volunteers, who attract more than 100,000 fun-seekers a year with free entertainment and movies and family oriented expos, take on a new theme for their annual Spring event.
 
“We’ve run Kidz Dayz the last few years in the Spring, and while it has been well-attended, the focus and the appeal has always been for families.  Our Board decided this year to recognize that focus and recreate the feel and fun of a fair,” said Debbie Connors, Chair of the event and Executive Director of the Port Orange/South Daytona Chamber of Commerce.  “Even those who have never attended a true Spring Fair know from stories and movies the idea was that after the hard winters, community residents got together in the Spring to show off their handiwork and take part in events that let them work off energy stored when winter activities slowed.  Our Volusia winters aren’t that bad, but the idea still has a lot of appeal,” she said.
 
Family Days Spring Fair aims to debut with one of the largest food and craft expositions held in the region.  The Craft Fair will be Saturday and Sunday March 31 and April 1 and will replace the business expo feature of Kidz Dayz, although year-round Family Days sponsors will be represented along with food and craft booths. Other activities will include a car show, a pie bake-off and cake walk. Most of the handicrafts and art works will be for sale and many demonstrations are scheduled for those interested in learning new skills.  Extensive free entertainment will include excerpts from a well-known musical presented on the amphitheater stage; an old fashioned barn dance, an Amazing Pet Tricks contest and an evening of free movies.
 
A high point of the Spring Fair will be a large, family friendly carnival with rides and games appealing to all ages.  Details of the entertainment and other events will be announced as the dates approach and will be posted on the Family Days web site at www.familydays.com.
 
Food and craft vendors interested in participating in the Spring Fair are urged to get information from the web site or apply by calling the Family Days office at 386-506-5935.

9th Annual Freemanville Day Ceremony
Mt. Moriah Baptist Church, 941 N. Orange Avenue, Port Orange
February 14, 2012 at 4:00 p.m.
 
Port Orange, FL - In honor of our community’s African-American heritage, the City of Port Orange will host the 9th Annual Freemanville Day Ceremony on February 14, 2012, at 4:00 p.m.  Hosted in partnership with the Mt. Moriah Baptist Church and the Port Orange Historical Trust, the ceremony will be held at the church, 941 N. Orange Avenue.  The public is welcome to attend.
 
This year’s featured speaker is Dr. Leonard Lempel of Daytona State College.  Dr. Lempel conducted research on the beginnings of Port Orange and Freemanville.  His presentation will focus on Ms. Esther Hill Hawks, the wife of Port Orange’s founder Dr. John Milton Hawks.  A medical doctor herself, Ms. Hawks run the integrated school.  Also on the program are Harold Cardwell from the Port Orange Historical Trust and Alberta McLeod who will share stories of living and raising children in Freemanville.
 
At 12 Noon on April 26, 1867, the U.S. Postal Service officially recognized Port Orange as a community.  Dr. John Milton Hawks, a Union Army surgeon, and his fellow Union Army officers established Port Orange after the U.S. Civil War.   Initially, 500 former slaves settled near the shores of the Halifax River on public lands secured with the help of the US Freedman Bureau in 1866.  They came to Port Orange to work for the Florida Land & Lumber Company, which Dr. Hawks and his partners formed.  An additional 1,000 freed slaves made Port Orange their home six months later. 
 
Falling on hard times, the settlement, the company, and the integrated school disbanded in 1869.  A majority of the settlers returned to their home states or headed for area citrus groves looking for work.  Over time, the few families and individuals who stayed made up the pioneering African-American neighborhood of Port Orange known as Freemanville.
 
For information on the ceremony, contact Kent E. Donahue, Special Assistant to the City Manager, at 386-506-5501 or kdonahue@port-orange.org.

Volusia County Sheriff's Office

COUPLE ARRESTED AFTER VICTIM SPOTS THEM IN STOLEN CAR

It started as a routine report Friday morning of a car that had been stolen out of the victim’s driveway in Deltona. Six hours later, the victim called 911 from a bus to report seeing the stolen black, 2002 Saturn traveling west on Saxon Boulevard in Orange City. Moments later, responding Volusia County Sheriff’s deputies spotted the vehicle and followed it into Deltona, leading to two arrests and the filing of numerous criminal charges that closed the books on several burglaries.

The Saturn was reported stolen at about 10:15 a.m. Friday morning from a driveway on West Page Drive. Initially, deputies had few clues regarding the theft. But that changed after a sighting of the stolen vehicle was reported to the Sheriff’s Office at about 4:20 p.m. on Friday. A short while later, a deputy spotted the vehicle on Enterprise Road and followed it into Deltona while relaying information to responding back-up units about the car’s direction of travel. The deputies followed the car into Deltona, where it pulled into a driveway near DeBary Avenue and Clark Street. Deputies immediately detained the occupants, driver Aaron Hosack and passenger Amber Jones. And their troubles didn’t end there. Jones had two of the victim’s bank cards on her, while Hosack was driving on a suspended license and also had several bank cards taken in another vehicle burglary in Deltona. Hosack initially lied about the stolen car. But Jones came clean to Sheriff’s investigators who were called in to question the duo. She told investigators that the two were breaking into vehicles in the Deltona area when Hosack came across the black Saturn, unlocked and with the keys inside. The two got in and drove off, with Hosack behind the wheel. They then drove to New Smyrna Beach to try to buy drugs, but when they couldn’t find any, they broke into a house there and stole property that included a laptop computer, a printer and a flat screen T.V. The defendants had some of the property on them from that burglary when they were arrested in Deltona. New Smyrna Beach Police also were called in to file charges on the burglary in their jurisdiction.

Hosack, age 29 (DOB: 12/22/82) of Orange City, was charged with grand theft, two counts of burglary, dealing in stolen property, driving with a suspended license, petty theft and three counts of possessing stolen credit cards. Jones, age 20 (DOB: 3/12/91), of Osteen, was charged with grand theft, two counts of burglary, petty theft, dealing in stolen property and two counts of possessing stolen credit cards. Additional charges are pending against both defendants.

Dean Baker | A Competitive Dollar: The Missing Link in President Obama's Manufacturing Agenda
Dean Baker, Truthout: "There is a real class dimension to the high dollar since it means that Wall Street's money will go further when it invests overseas. It also helps to keep down inflation, Wall Street's nemesis. In other words, the value of the dollar is another one of those 99 percent versus the 1 percent issues."

The history of a people is found in its songs.

During the second world war, my dad worked long hours at the sperry's defense plant. 7 days a week. I remember him always trying to stay awake when he was home, but snoringly falling asleep in his chair.

After the war was over, he returned to normal working hours, and enjoying fishing, he often took me on a charter boat going out of Sheephead's bay on weekends. We went on Capt. Izzy's boat.

During the week, he kept up with fishing reports in a 7 am news radio fishing report. The introduction to the fishing report section played the song, Sailor's Hornpipe. Whenever I hear the song, I have happy memories of fishing with dad on weekends. -- hank

Apple Computer announced today
that it has developed
a computer chip that can store
and play high fidelity music
in women's breast implants. 

The 
iTit  will cost between
$499.00 and $699.00
depending on speaker size.
 

This is considered to be a major breakthrough
because women have always complained
about men staring at their tits
and not listening to them.

 

good night!
