The Louisiana Associationof Educators (LAE)announces NatchitochesParish teacher CrystalLouviere Pierce as the recipi-ent of the association’s LAETeacher Image Award. LAEPresident Debbie Meaux saidthe Natchitoches ParishSchool System is fortunate tohave a talent like Pierce serv-ing the students of the dis-trict.

“We couldn’t be more proudof Crystal and her profession-al accomplishments,” Meauxsaid. “She is a model teacherand a true asset, not just to theassociation, but to her school,her district, and her stu-dents.”

Pierce is a pre-kinder-garten teacher at FairviewAlpha Elementary School inCampti. She says she is a firmbeliever that positive self-worth and confidence at anearly age lay the foundationfor becoming a productiveadult.

“I encourage my students totrust in themselves. Theyguide my instruction andknowing this causes them totake ownership over theirwork,” Pierce said. “There isno greater reward than whena child tells me they are gladthat I’m their teacher.”

One of the most interestingaspects of Pierce’s instruc-tional style is that she actuallytransforms her classroom tocomplement the lessons she’steaching. If the lesson is aboutthe characteristics of a jungle,her classroom becomes a jun-gle. If the lesson is on commu-nity workers, her classroombecomes a community, com-plete with police and fire sta-

tions, a city hall, a courtroomand businesses. Pierce saidthis helps bring her lessons tolife.

“I want to make my class-room a fun place to learn,” shesaid. “The bright colors makethings cheerful and that has atremendous impact on youngchildren.”

Pierce began her teachingcareer in 1997 at FairviewAlpha Elementary School. Sheis a graduate of TerrebonneHigh School andNorthwestern StateUniversity. In her 17 years asan educator at FAE, she hastaught fourth and fifth grades,pre-school and kindergarten.She and husband, Madison,make their home inNatchitoches.

The LAE Image Awards arepresented annually to recog-nize Louisiana educatorswhose leadership and actionsin their professions haveadvanced public education inLouisiana. Every year, theLAE chooses one outstandingteacher to honor with the LAETeacher Image Award. Theindividual is chosen based ontheir advancement of theimage of teachers and theassociation. LAE PresidentDebbie Meaux presentedPierce with the award at theannual LAE RepresentativeAssembly Saturday, April 9.Pierce will be submitted to theNational EducationAssociation (NEA) for theNEA Foundation Awards forTeaching Excellence.

Natchitoches Parish teacher receives LAE award

Fairview Alpha Elementary School’s Crystal Pierce wasrecognized at the Louisiana Association of Educators’Annual Representative Assembly. At left is LAE Vice-President Daryl Roberson and at right is LAE PresidentDebbie Meaux.

The school board has notmade a decision on whereNatchitoches Magnet Schoolstudents will attend schoolwhen the building is renovat-ed but it there was no con-vincing a roomful of parentsof that.

The school board is in thebeginning stages of putting abond issue before the public,which if it passes, willfinance renovations to Cityschools including Magnet. Ifand when that happens,Magnet students will be relo-cated to another school.

What apparently sparkedthe controversy at the com-mittee meeting Tuesday after-noon was an unauthorizedletter sent to parents of stu-dents at East Natchitochesstating “they are planning toclose East Natchitoches andbus you your children toParks and move the MagnetSchool in our building.”

The letter stated it wasfrom April Encalade, PTOpresident. It included severalother untruths and urged par-ents to attend the board meet-ing April 14 “to fight for EastNatchitoches. They are hid-ing this from you beingSneaky” the letter read. Itincluded the names and tele-phone numbers of boardmembers saying to “call everyboard member every day…”

Supt. Dale Skinneraddressed the letter . “Forthis letter to go out was piti-ful,” and much of it untrue,Skinner said. The letter wasprepared at the school anddistributed to students whileprincipal Dr. Alvin Brossettwas not there Skinner said.

He received only one callregarding the issue and it wasnot even an agenda item.Skinner said no decision hasbeen made and the matter ofwhere the Magnet School willmove to has never been dis-cussed by the whole board buthas been the subject of infor-mal suggestions during bud-get meetings.

Sinner told those presenthe was glad they were at themeeting but the letter shouldnever been sent and was sentwithout his permission. “Wewill do what’s best for everystudent. Some children willbe moved but it won’t be a biginterruption.”

Board President RalphWilson called on members ofthe audience without theusual policy of limitingremarks to 3 minutes. Few ofthe speakers identified them-selves.

Board member TommyMelder said he didn’t feelcomfortable responding to theletter that made claims thatwere untrue.

The discussion quicklyturned from the accusationsin the letter to parents ofMagnet School students com-plaining about conditions atthe school. Different onescited presence of mold andasbestos, overcrowding, limit-ed bathrooms, leaking roof,lack of space and more.

Director of Finance StevenSolomon said that when moldwas discovered at the MagnetSchool, it was treated andcleaned and those areas weretested for mold. The schoolhas been checked forasbestos, which if not dis-turbed, is not harmful. Ifthere is construction at theschool, the asbestos will beremoved. He said the schoolsare regularly checked andinspected.

Skinner and Wilson coulddo little to turn the tide ofcriticism. After nearly anhour of listening to com-ments, Skinner said, “There’sno need to discuss it..”

Wilson told the crowd thatthe board was considering alloptions and moved on to therest of the agenda.

Following the committeemeeting, the board went intoa special called meeting inwhich it passed a resolutioncalling for the sale of gener-al obligation bonds toimprove City schools in BREDistrict 9.

The bond issue will be putto voters in District 9 onlyand will essentially extend a20-year bond issue passed in1990 that is about to be paidoff.

That bond issue paid forthe renovation of City schoolsand the new sale of bondsthat will pay for maintenanceand repairs, including that atthe Magnet School.

The board will meet in reg-ular session today, Thursday,but there will be no vote onmoving the Magnet School.

diabetes when my mother,Polly Lou Sepulvado, was diag-nosed with it at the age 45,”Kilcoyne said. “Initially, it wascontrolled by diet and medica-tion, but then it progressed toinsulin and diet. She sufferedwith it until her death in 1999at the age of 75.”

Kilcoyne believes that yearsof taking medication to con-trol diabetes affected her moth-er’s body.

“She had a stroke in 1997and never recovered from it.When my dad was diagnosedwith lung cancer in January of1995, we found out that he haddiabetes, too, and never knewit. He died in April 5, 1995, fromliver failure,” she said. “Forme, I have tried to eat health-fully and exercise every day.”

Travel to northeastLouisiana, into the most seclud-ed areas of West Carroll Parish,and you’ll find a sprawling net-work of earthen mounds andridges built by this state’s earli-est inhabitants. A pre-agricul-tural society, these people dugand moved and piled dirt over-looking the Mississippi Riverflood plain some 3,500 yearsago, an impressive feat thattook place long before the greatMayan pyramids were everconstructed.

Today Poverty Point is one ofthe most important archaeolog-ical sites in North America —and arguably among the mostcomplex and oldest remains ofany such settlement of its kind.It’s a World Heritage site, ofwhich there are fewer than twodozen in the United States,standing alongside the Statueof Liberty and the GrandCanyon. If you breathe in thehistory and add in some con-text, Poverty Point is an unfor-gettable experience.

But what if the signage lead-ing to the site was trans-formed? What if, instead ofsimply being Poverty Point, itwas The CenturyLink PovertyPoint World Heritage Site?There’s no such naming spon-sor attached yet, but it could bea reality soon enough.

As revenues continue to dipand the state struggles with fill-ing massive budget gaps — it’s a$750 million hole for next fiscalyear — agencies and depart-ments are slowly embracing theidea of corporate advertising. Ifit can be done tastefully, withshades of transparency andfairness, it’s not an altogetherterrible idea. For naysayers,consider higher taxes and feesas the alternative.

Last week lawmakers heardfrom Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesseron how more than half of all

state parks and historic sitescould be shuttered if hisdepartment’s budget was notmade whole. Nungesserexplained how he plans toaddress what amounts to atleast $26 million in cuts to hisDepartment of Culture,Recreation and Tourism. Hesaid he was looking at increas-ing certain fees, but didn’t stopthere.

“We’re also looking at pri-vate-public partnerships forbringing new things and newevents into the parks. We’realso looking at naming rightsfor the state parks, for PovertyPoint,” Nungesser said, adding,“We’ve got to look outside thebox and look at all of theseopportunities.”

It’s a building trend in stategovernment. In the ongoing reg-ular session there’s also HB 867by Rep. Chris Leopold, R-BelleChasse, which would allow theDepartment of Agriculture toplace advertising on property itowns. That includes everythingfrom its vehicle fleet to land.

Agriculture CommissionerMike Strain specifically notedthe Indian Creek RecreationArea in Woodworth. The sitereceives no money from thestate at all and operates on self-generated revenue. Strain saidits playgrounds could beenhanced with the help of spon-sorships and naming rights. Inother departmental operations,the trucks and trailers used foranimal evacuations could hostsome corporate or privatebranding too.

“This will allow us, selective-ly and in good taste, to do someadvertising but to also generatesome revenue,” Strain said.

The Legislature has beenvery open in recent years toapproving such sponsorshipopportunities to drum up rev-enue for agencies and depart-ments in need of cash. AndLeopold has been at the fore-front with legislation to helpthese public bodies out.

The Department ofTransportation andDevelopment began selling adspace on its motorist assistancevehicles to State Farm in 2014.At last glance, DOTD waspulling in around $250,000

annually for the brandingopportunities. Additionally,last year, the Louisiana Wildlifeand Fisheries Department wasgranted the authority to beginselling advertisements to pri-vate companies.

The Wildlife and FisheriesCommission was charged withcoming up with the specific reg-ulations. An attorney for thedepartment said recently thatthe program will likely launchnext fiscal year and will focusprimarily on sponsorships andbanner ads in regulationbrochures and on the depart-ment’s website.

As long as the state doesn’tend up in some kind of twistedsweetheart deal with a majorcorporation, and entire arms ofdepartments aren’t being dedi-cated to outside advertisingsales, this concept can work. Itcan become a mutually benefi-cial arrangement that helpsdepartments create self-gener-ated revenue and companiesand individuals build theirbrands. But it has to be a com-petitive process that is openand both sides must be able toshow some value received,whether it be through prof-itability or brand awareness.

Examples do pre-dateDOTD’s experiment with StateFarm. Former Gov. BobbyJindal’s administration part-nered with Walmart to helppush its “Get A Game PlanCampaign,” which was aimedat disaster preparedness. Sothis is nothing new toLouisiana government and ithas been implemented withsome success in other states.

The biggest danger may bein selecting the right advertis-ers. Bass Pro is probably agood fit for the Department ofWildlife and Fisheries andJohn Deere for the Departmentof Agriculture, but seeing aBudweiser sponsorship for theDepartment of Children andFamily Services might draw afew raised eyebrows. Just aslong as lawmakers aren’tasked to wear logos of donorsduring session, like NASCARdrivers on the track, this trendcould continue to build. Thenagain, that idea might havesome legs.

La. Government Officials

Gov. John Bel Edwards and the legislature have been mak-ing progress toward getting the state back on solid groundfinancially despite a barrage of criticism from StateTreasurer John Kennedy that smacks of political posturingand campaign rhetoric.

Kennedy began his attack on efforts to shore up state rev-enues when he delivered the Republican response toEdwards’ televised address before the special legislative ses-sion that focused on the need for more income to balance thebudget.

The State Treasurer spouted the old cliché that Louisiana“has a spending problem and not a revenue problem” andstated that he had sent to the governor and members of thelegislature a list of 400 recommendations to curtail spend-ing.

But when pressed by journalist Bob Mann to reveal thelist, he cited several efficiency studies—one of them morethan two decades old—with suggestions for cutting the bud-get. Some suggestions in the reports have been adopted, andother were simply not realistic.

Kennedy, of course, desperately wants to be elected to theU.S. Senate, and his position on balancing the budget seemsto be geared more toward getting votes in that race than inoffering any viable solutions to the $3 billion deficit thatLouisiana faced when former Gov. Bobby Jindal left office.

The deficit was largely the result of Jindal’s rationale thatthe state just needed to cut spending and should not considerany tax increases to generate more revenues. Jindalembraced that position because he thought the “no new tax”refrain would resonate with voters here and nationwide.

Nobody likes to pay more taxes, but Jindal’s campaign forthe presidency based on little more than a no-tax policycrashed and burned quickly, and his approval rating inLouisiana fell below 30 percent before he left office.

To keep from raising more revenues, Jindal cut highereducation more than any other state in the nation, leavingLouisiana ranked rock bottom among the 16 southern statesin state funding per student in colleges and universities.

In addition, the state has the worst roads in America and a$13 billion backlog in highway projects and a multi-billionbacklog in projects to properly maintain state buildings andother facilities.

Jindal’s philosophy that the state had a spending problemand not a revenue problem was an insult to the intelligenceof voters, and it wrecked Louisiana while destroying hispolitical ambitions. It is disappointing that the treasurer isembracing that viewpoint.

The Alliance for Affordable Energy, a consumer advocacygroup filed a motion with the Louisiana Public ServiceCommission to rehear and reverse the decision to approvethe sale of Cleco Power and Cleco Corporation on March 28.The final deal points do not address the fundamental risks ofthe transactions and will likely further enhance risk toLouisiana ratepayers.

The Alliance submits that the new structure of the presentdeal, partly released in a press release the morning of March28, 2016, the day of the Commission’s Special Meeting, andpartly decided during the Special Meeting, has not been vet-ted at all by the Commission, its Staff, intervenors, or theAdministrative Law Judge, and has not been reviewed by anycredit rating agency or subject to any public economic analy-sis whatsoever.

The Alliance submits that elements of the “deal” made inthe room shortly before the Commission’s vote may have asignificant impact on the credit ratings of both ClecoCorporation and Cleco Power, and thus on the ultimate finan-cial health of the utility with far-reaching effects on Clecoratepayers, Cleco employees and the economy of CentralLouisiana.

The Alliance submits that the Commission’s vote was pro-cedurally flawed and wrongly decided on the merits of theTransaction. Therefore the Commission’s decision should bereheard and reversed.

Corporate advertising to the rescue

Raging Moderate By Will Durst

And once again Americareaches for the Tylenol afterwrenching its collective backrecoiling from the wacky ugli-ness monopolizing the presi-dential election primaryprocess, but this time, it’s...the Democrats.

Surprise. Surprise.Surprise.

The Mommy Party hasstrapped on pastel boxinggloves and started to tradeblows. The punches aren’tlanding and even if they did,they probably wouldn’t hurtmuch. But it is fun to watch.

We’ve become inured toseeing Republicans tear intoeach other like crazed canni-balistic piranhas in a crowd-ed aquarium laced with liq-uid meth, while Democratshop around like baby rabbitsplaying tag in a shaded glen.With animated bluebirdswhistling happy tunes cir-cling their fluffy bunnyheads.

In an effort not to muddythe general election waterstoo badly for whoever is theeventual nominee, BernieSanders and Hillary Clintonhave thus far treated eachother with the courtesy andrespect normally practiced bylibrarians in schools for chil-dren with severe sound sensi-tivities. You’d be forgiven forthinking they’ve spent theentire campaign in slippers.

Up until now, the mostheated argument between thetwo was who thought the GOPrace was more unseemly.Words might possibly havebeen exchanged over whichNPR station played the bettermandolin music. It’s an ideo-logical battle between starry-eyed idealists and steely-eyedrealists.

Bernie has gone out of hisway to avoid conflict, “I’mtired of hearing about yourdamn emails.” Although somesuspect that was because hedoesn’t know what they are.To him a pager is dark sor-cery. While the most frequentknock on the former FirstLady is she needs to lose the“Just give me the nominationand get the hell out of myway” look.

Sanders’ youthful support-ers feel the Bern because theVermont Senator is like SantyClaus without the beard:promising universal healthcare, free tuition and...ponies. Everybody gets apony. He even displayed thefire hose with which he plansto soak the rich to pay for itall. And the nozzle is huuuuu-uge.

The establishment backsHillary because she not onlyknows where all the bodiesare buried, but how deep theknife wounds are, who put

But now we’re approachingcrunch time with the electoralcircus moving to New York,and the bunnies are putting onhobnailed boots and growingfangs. The good people ofWisconsin, the Dairy State,give extra credit to candidateswho hold hands and play nice.The Empire State, not somuch. They demand to knowyou’re willing to fight for theirvote and need to see evidentialbruising. “You want sou-venirs?” “Yes.”

Thus the brawling begins.The woman who now lives inNew York says “I’m not evensure he’s a Democrat” and theman who was born therecomes back with “she’s notqualified to be president.” Itwon’t be long before the twostart posting unflattering pic-tures of each other’s spouses.Then talk about the size oftheir... hands.

The problem is, going nega-tive holds a larger downsidefor the former Senator thanthe current Senator. For onething, the frontrunner can’tafford to alienate Sanders’ del-icate-as-a-snowflake followers,and two, if she isn’t careful,she runs the risk of beingcharged with elder abuse.

BATON ROUGE –Louisiana taxpayers in areasof the state affected byrecent storms and floodingwill receive filing extensionsfor returns for various taxeswith due dates betweenMarch 8 and July 15, 2016.This includes individualstate income tax returns dueMay 16.

The extended deadline forsales, severance and excisetaxes is June 15. The extend-ed deadline for withholdingtaxes is June 30, 2016.

The extended deadline forindividual income, corpora-tion income and franchiseand other income taxes isJuly 15.

The LouisianaDepartment of Revenue willwaive any late filing penal-ties, late payment penaltiesand interest that would oth-erwise apply. This extensiondoes not apply to any returnor amount on which penaltyand interest began accruingbefore March 8, 2016.

The Louisiana budget is $1billion short as the end of thisfiscal year approaches June30. Next year’s shortfall is pre-dicted to be $2 billion.

“We’re a mess and we’vegot to get out of it quickly andthat’s going to take findingrevenue,” said MichaelOlivier, president of theCommittee of 100 forEconomic Development.

Olivier delivered that mes-sage when he spoke to aNatchitoches Area Chamberof Commerce luncheon inMarch.

C100 was created in 1992 toprovide leadership andresources for change in gov-ernment, education and theeconomy in Louisiana. It is anon-government organizationsupported by business leadersdedicated to the state’s long-term economic growth.

“We can’t cut our way outof this,?” said Olivier. “If wecut our way out it’ll hurt thehospital system and the uni-versities. These are the onlythings left. Everything else isprotected by a constitutionalor statutory provision.”

Universities were cut by 70percent over the last 7 1/2years.

“It’s not right,?” he said.“That’s an economic engine.That?s the future. That’s ourworkforce. We can’t afford tokeep doing this or we’re goingto kill ourselves.”

Olivier says the biggestobstacle the state faces is deal-ing with the workforce.There’s a demand for about40,000 new jobs every year forthe next several years. About98,000, 60 percent of themuntil 2018 are science, tech-nology, engineering andmathematics related jobs. Ofthat 60 percent, 42 percentrequire advanced STEM liter-acy.

Last year the state’semployment reached 2 mil-lion people for the first timein history.

“We cannot produceenough graduates,” saidOlivier. “We’ve got 1.7 millionpeople in this state who haveno credentials. Somehow theygot left. Somehow they didn’tfinish high school or go to col-lege. How do we reach thembecause they’re going to haveto be part of the solution.”

The state plans to raise thebar in terms of K-12 stan-dards, will boost STEM train-ing and match fundamentalworker skills to available jobs.

It’s not all bad news. Inmost states there is $5 billionin capital investmentannounced in 1 year.Louisiana has $80 billion incapital investmentannounced. Only about 1/5 ofthat has initiated construc-tion.

“It’s really an amazingthing because of all the megaprojects that have beenannounced, about 70 percentare petrochemical projects,”said Olivier.

To understand where thestate is with it budget prob-lems, one must understandthe genesis of state’s econom-ic development.

Former Gov. Mike Fosterstarted the Vision 20/20Program and under thatthinking came a host of ideas,some of which started theCommittee of 100 for econom-ic development. TheCommittee of 100 was a long-term 3-year process withresources invested by thestate and private sectors todetermine what needed to bechanged about the state gov-ernment. This resulted in 186recommendations comingfrom one of the state’s fouraccounting firms and a couple

million dollars invested.About 150 of these measureswere passed over three yearsduring the Foster administra-tion.

One important result waslegal reform.

Former Gov. KathleenBlanco hired professional eco-nomic development leader-ship. She focused on educa-tion and the state saw some ofthe greatest investments inhigher education and educa-tion in many decades. Thenthe state entered theKatrina/Rita recoveryprocess, which according toOlivier, was Blanco’s down-fall.

Jindal’s administrationrevolved around the naturalgas phenomenon. During theBlanco administration theprice was $14-16 MCF. MCF isa standard measurement ofgas volume and is also anabbreviation for 1,000 cubicfeet. Today Louisiana paysunder $4.

“This leads us to the fiscalreform mess that we’re innow,” said Olivier.

The Committee of 100began looking at the state’stax reform issue. It engagedthe tax foundation inWashington D.C., a nonprofitorganization that measuresand analyzes the tax codesand ranking of 50 states.

The state has many struc-tural budget issues to addressand that’s where the C100came up with six guidingprinciples.

• Seek true tax reform as along-term commitment

• Have transparency• Examine corporate

income and franchise taxes• Reexamine the personal

income tax • Examine state and sales

tax issues• Establish how local gov-

ernment relates to taxationThe state’s tax code is com-

plicated and there’s a need tomaintain a revenue streamconsistent with the level ofservices the state is used to.About half of the state’sspending priorities are pro-tected by the constitution, soto change them they must beput on a ballot.

People talk about the multi-ple exemptions and exclu-sions and tax credits andrebates that are built into thetax code.

“Did you know we giveexemptions on Mardi Grasbeads,” Olivier asked.“There’s only 200 exemptions.Over the years it’s added upand it’s gotten more ridicu-lous as we go on. We need tofix all that and get back downto reality. Mardi Gras beadsmay only be a little bit, but doyou know how many of those‘little bits’ we’ve got outthere?”

People need to understandwhy these things need to hap-pen and how their govern-ment will deal with the rest ofit.

“It’s not going to happen inone session,” said Olivier.“It’ll take multiple sessions tofix this because it’s a big prob-lem. We gotta have our legis-lators committed to the fix.Not just kicking the can downthe road, which we’ve done.”

Other things Olivier saysneed to be examined include:

• Transparency of the dis-tribution of the tax burden onindividuals, on business

• Relative distribution tothe tax policy as it’s looked atby competing states

• Corporate income andfranchise tax

• Personal income tax• Developing a common

state and local tax adminis-tration

• Property taxes as a sourceof local revenues

• Modify the 10-year indus-trial tax exemption

• Property tax variationsbetween different parishes

Louisiana has one of thehighest corporate tax rates inthe country at 8 percent.

“We need to get it backdown. We need to be rid of thefederal deduction proposi-tion. There are a number ofthings that we need to dobecause the fluctuations incorporate income taxes arevery strange.”

“We allow global compa-nies to take their losses inother states and aggregatethem here. So we end up col-lecting no taxes from them.Corporate income tax thispast year was a negative $220million.”

Louisiana needs a flatterand broader tax, so thateverybody contributes. Poorpeople should pay taxes, butonly up to a certain level. Thestate needs a more simplifiedtax code.

“The only way we can getout of this mess we’re in rightnow is through a sales tax andincome tax. We have betweennow and June 30 to get $900million. When we do this, weshould do it with a con-tention: to start teeing up thenext sessions to start fixingthe structural budget prob-lems, the spending problemsand to develop common stateand local tax base, a long-termissue to avoid the destabiliz-ing the revenue predictionthat we’re always in from ourlocal governments to our stategovernment.”

Olivier said there are 56 taxcollection systems in the statethat need to be streamlined. Ifthis isn’t done, the state won?tbe able to take advantage ofthe fair markets tax creditfrom the sale of internet prod-ucts. That’s estimated to be$380 million a year.

“We’re missing a lot ofsales tax and sooner or laterCongress will approve thisbill, probably within the nexttwo years. We have to be in aposition to be ready to collect.If we don’t have a standard-ized position we will not beable to collect and we willmiss out on this yearlyamount.”

Louisiana has an issuewith local government’sresponsibility of taxation. Ithas the highest dispensationof property tax of any state.The average is about $30,000.Louisiana’s is $75,000 which iscosting the state.

“I know everyone is tired ofhearing that, but the home-stead exemption is a majorsource of taxes.”

Modifying the 10-yearindustrial tax exemption willmake Louisiana more compet-itive with other states likeMississippi, Alabama andTexas.

Property tax variationsbetween parishes make ithard for companies doingbusiness in multiple parishes.“We’re not being businessfriendly when we do that.We?re not generating enoughrevenue and we need to have aflatter and broader tax base sowe can bring more people inand reduce the volatility weface.”

POLLOCK- 4-H’ers fromthroughout Louisianalearned that fitness can befun and healthy eating does-n’t have to bust your budgetduring the LSU AgCenter 4-HFood and Fitness FamilyCamp March 18-20 at theGrant Walker 4-HEducational Center inPollock.

The camp was open to 4-H’ers and their parents.

“If the parents aren’t onboard, it’s really hard forkids to make changes,” saidJessica Stroope, LSUAgCenter healthy livingextension associate. “Wewant the parents to buy inbecause that creates a realchange for the whole family.”

Twenty-two fourth-through sixth-graders, mostaccompanied by one or bothparents, participated inactivities conducted by the 4-H State Food and FitnessBoard members and theiradvisers.

Sessions included hands-on lessons in nutrition, foodpreparation, food safety andfitness. Lessons were devel-oped by the 4-H State Foodand Fitness Board teen mem-bers under the coordinationof faculty advisers, Stroopesaid.

“I started out showing live-stock in 4-H and liked it, butwhen I discovered the health,nutrition and fitness pro-gram I really got excited,”said Alexis Cole, teen boardpresident.

“The teen board comes upwith ways to show theyounger students that fitnesscan be fun,” Cole said. “It

doesn’t have to be aboutworking out and eating bor-ing food.”

One of the guest presen-ters at the weekend event wasJennifer Duhon, with theSoutheast United DairyAssociation. Duhon talkedabout how to eat healthy on abudget.

“We’re hoping the familieswill take this back to theirschools’ health and wellnesscommittees and be able toincorporate it into their dailylives,” said Duhon, who alsorepresents the NFL’s Fuel Upto Play 60! Program.

The 4-H Food and FitnessFamily Camp was made pos-sible, in part, by a grant fromConAgra Foods.

“The ConAgra grant sup-ports the food and fitness pro-grams along with the 4-Hparish efforts throughout thestate,” Stroope said. “It focus-es on nutrition and food bud-geting skills for families.

They want to involve the par-ents, but the focus is fourth-through sixth-graders andteen educators.”

For Jennifer Anderson andher 10-year-old son, Sawyer, itwas a bonding time.

“I think it’s great that weget to do this as a familyactivity,” said JenniferAnderson, of NatchitochesParish. “We as a family likefitness, and we like to cookand learn all kinds of newthings, so we get a chance todo that together at thiscamp.”

Dear Annie: I am a middleschool student, and I signed upfor drama at the beginning ofthe semester. I’ve been work-ing really hard at it.

The problem is, I failed oneof my classes (out of seven).Because of that, I am notallowed to participate indrama. I have a speaking rolewith 17 lines and I don’t thinkthey can replace me in such ashort time.

This really upsets me, espe-cially because in the highschool I’ll be attending, youonly need to pass four classesto participate in drama.What’s worse is that they did-n’t give me or my parents anywarning about how close I wasto failing. I did know that Iwasn’t doing well in that class,and I was trying to bring upmy grade. But I have anxietyissues and get panic attackswhen I try to talk to teachersor people of authority (evenmy mom).

My parents emailed theschool with a complaint, but Iwas wondering what youthink I should do. — WasReady for Showtime in NewHampshire

Dear New Hampshire: We

wish we could help you, butschools routinely penalize stu-dents by prohibiting themfrom doing special activities ifthey fail a required class. (Ithappens to football playersand other athletes, too.) Suchconsequences are how schoolshold students accountable.

You can try talking to thedrama teacher to see if he orshe would intervene on yourbehalf, and you also can talk tothe teacher who gave you thefailing grade, explaining thatyou were working hard toimprove and didn’t realize thiswould happen. If you haveanxiety about talking toauthority figures, try imagin-ing that you are in a play andthis is what your characterdoes. It’s good practice. You

also can ask your parents tospeak to these teachers direct-ly, instead of leaving mes-sages.

But if this is the policy ofthe school, there isn’t muchyou can do. Consider it alearning experience, and keepit in mind for high school,when you can try out fordrama and be motivated to putyour grades first. We knowyou’ll do better.

Dear Annie: I am writingin response to the lettersigned, “Is This Normal,”whose girlfriend bounces her10-year-old son on her lap for30 minutes.

Your response was notstrong enough. This is childabuse. This mother shouldimmediately be reported to

the Department for Childrenand Family Services in theirlocal community. The entirefamily can then receive thehelp they need, and this childcan be protected. The reportcan be anonymous and can bedone by calling theDepartment directly or bynotifying the local police.

Please tell “Normal” to takethe steps to protect this childfrom further abuse, and also toprotect his young sister fromhaving to watch her brother beabused on a daily basis. —Social Worker

Dear Social Worker:Many readers suggested thatthis mother is a child molester.Perhaps so. But we think sheis simply misguided and hasgotten into a bad situation that

she doesn’t recognize or knowhow to fix. Whatever the case,we agree that the situationmust be dealt with immediate-ly.

It was up to sophomoreGarrett Wells to close out thewin for the Chiefs on themound. He got the first hitterto ground out to second base.He got in some trouble whenthe next two hitters reachedon a single and a walk.

NCHS managed just fivehits, but got them when itcounted. Thomas was 2 for 4with an RBI and a run scored.Roquemore was 1 for 3 with anRBI. Dubois was 1 for 3 with arun scored.

Fortenberry was outstand-ing pitching. He threw fiveand 2/3 innings allowingthree earned runs, seven hitsand struck out seven.

“The thing is, we didn’teven expect him to be a pitch-er this year,” said head coachJeramie Hale. “But coachAustin (Alexander) suggestedit and it’s been great. Josh hasgiven us a chance every timewe roll him out there. Andthat’s all I ask from our guyson the mound; to just compete

and give us a chance and wewill do the rest and he hasdone that.”

Saturday at Pineville, theChiefs were trailing 4-3 in thetop of the fifth. Roquemorereached on an error andscored on sacrifice fly byFortenberry tying the game.

The Rebels regained thelead in the bottom of theinning. With one out, theRebels recorded two straighthits and took advantage of anNCHS error to take a 5-4 lead.

“We have known he has hadthat capability,” said Hale.“He has had some struggles attimes this year and been inand out of the line up but thatat bat we told him to look forsomething up in the zone andput a good swing on it and didhe ever. It was a no-doubter.”

The Chiefs added to theirlead in the seventh inning.With one out, Thomas contin-ued his hot streak and blasteda solo homerun to left centermaking it 7-5 NCHS.Fortenberry then doubled tocenter and scored on a sacri-fice fly by Starks pushing it to8-5.

Hudson closed the door inthe ninth in style. He got thefirst hitter to flyout to rightfield. The next hitter singled.Moments later, Hudsonsnagged a line shot that was

ticketed for center field. Hemade the catch and flipped tofirst for the easy double playwith the runner caught in “noman’s land” for the final out.

“This was a total teameffort the last two days,” saidHale. “We had some guys getsome big hits, we had someguys pitch well, we had someguys make big plays in thefield. We did a little bit ofeverything to grind out thesewins and I couldn’t be moreproud of them for it. They arebuying into the idea that theyare capable of being a reallygood team and it showed thisweekend.”

Dubois led the way going 2for 3 with two RBIs and a runscored. Thomas andFortenberry were both 1 for 4with an RBI and a run scored.Claiborne was 1 for 3 with arun scored.

With Sunday’s game on theline, Northwestern State firstbaseman Cort Brinson flashedback to nine days ago and onethat got away.

Given a second chance on asimilarly hit ball Sunday,Brinson made a pivotal divingstop on a ball hit to his right,securing the Demons’ 3-2 vic-tory against SoutheasternLouisiana at Brown-StroudField.

With two outs in the ninthand the tying run on secondbase, Brinson lunged to hisright and made a backhandedstab of Sam Roberson’sground ball to help NSU snapa three-game losing streak.

“I’ve had a little bit of anadjustment period,” saidBrinson, who is in his firstseason as the Demons’ prima-ry first baseman. “I’m tryingto stay comfortable. That playhappened exactly last week atMcNeese in the first game. Wewere in the 14th inning. Hehits it and it went right off thetip of my glove and theyscored the tying run.

“I have those flashbacks.You don’t want that to happenagain. I had a feeling he wouldcome that way. He hit it there.I laid out and made the play.”

The win helpedNorthwestern State (17-15, 8-7)avoid its first SouthlandConference sweep of the sea-son and handed SoutheasternLouisiana (25-8, 13-2) its firstroad conference loss.

Brinson’s diving stab andflip to Jeffrey Stovall providedthe final out in a game thatsaw all of its runs scored inthe first five innings.

For the first time in theseries, the Demons took a leadas Nick Heath started a sec-

ond-inning rally with a one-out single off DomenickCarlini (4-1) and took secondon a passed ball. Two batterslater, Spencer Goodwin linedan RBI single to right field toput NSU ahead 1-0.

The Demons added singleruns in the third inning on aDaniel Garner RBI single andin the fourth inning on an RBIgroundout by Brinson.

“We brought it back intolaser focus today and said,‘Let’s try to win everyinning,’” fourth-year headcoach Lane Burroughs said.“We won three innings. Welost one inning. The rest weretossups. You win moreinnings than they do, you winthe ballgame.”

It helped the Demons tohave a sharp Evan Tidwell (4-2) on the mound.

Tidwell shut out the Lions,who entered the series hitting.307 as a team, across the firstfour innings beforeSoutheastern Louisianaloaded the bases with one outin the fifth inning.

Tidwell minimized thedamage and kept the Demonsahead by one after fiveinnings. Tidwell turned in aquality start of 6 1-3 innings,scattering five hits and allow-ing two runs.

He recorded 12 of his 19outs via groundout, keepinghis pitch count down.

“With the lefties, I wasthrowing sinkers away, look-ing for early contact,” he said.“I kept the pitch count downand kept the defense involved.It allows me to go deep intogames when the defense isplaying well and making noerrors behind me.”

The Demons solved Carliniearly, tagging the Lions left-hander for eight hits throughthe first three innings.

However, Carlini settled inand did not allow another hitwhile tossing a completegame.

Tidwell turned things overto Jeffrey Stovall in the sev-

enth, and Stovall respondedwith 2 2-3 scoreless innings forhis first career save.

Stovall allowed two hits,including Carson Crites’ one-out bunt single in the ninth

inning. Crites stole secondbefore Stovall and Brinsoncombined to strand him 180feet from home plate.

Before Brinson’s stellardefensive play for the finalout, Stovall induced DrewAvans to foul out to third baseon a 2-0 count for a pivotal sec-ond out.

“I’ve been telling the coach-es these past two days, ‘I’mready. I’m ready. I want theball,’” Stovall said. “I didn’tget to throw yesterday. Today, Idid. I’m not typically a closer,but I’ll do whatever they needme to do.

“I rely on my defense.Cort’s play, I left the ball up onthat pitch. If it had gonethrough, they would have tiedit. That was huge. I can’t

thank Cort enough for that.”The victory was improved

Northwestern State to 2-5 inone-run games in conferenceplay as it prepares to head toNew Orleans next weekend.The first of the three-gameseries in the Crescent City isset for 6:30 p.m. at MaestriField at Privateer Park.

NSU track team’s Aldredge, Williams postbig wins in home finale as Demons dominate

Northwestern State, espe-cially senior stars AaronWilliams and AshleyAldredge, made the most ofits only home track appear-ance this spring Saturday byposting 20 wins in 39 events atthe Leon Johnson NSUInvitational track and fieldmeet.

Williams unleashed a win-ning 52-10 triple jump to moveto third nationally in thatevent. The senior was seventhin the NCAA entering theafternoon with a 52-4 marklast week at the Texas Relays,bumped up his best to 52-6 inthe preliminary roundSaturday, and then electrifiedthe big crowd at the Walter P.Ledet Track Complex byexploding for his career-bestdistance on the final jump inthe competition.

“All the hard work at prac-tice finally paid off. I cameinto today feeling I had to winit for the home team, especial-ly since this is my last homemeet,” said Williams, a 2015NCAA Indoor All-American.“I’m really excited but Ibelieve I still have room toimprove.”

Aldredge climbed up to18th nationally after enteringthe day 31st in the women’sjavelin. She improved by fivefeet with her second longestcompetitive throw ever, 161-3,to win. The two-timeSouthland champ and 2015honorable mention All-American overcame recon-structive elbow surgery afterher freshman year, time off toget married and have a child,graduating with honors in

2014 and near-ing a master’sdegree alongthe way.

“It felt goodto get back inthe 160s and todo it at homewas great,because there are so manypeople who have supportedme. I was hoping for theschool record today, but I stillhave a couple meets to go andhopefully I can get back tonationals,” said Aldredge,whose freshman-year best of166-0 is nine inches behindRegina Roe’s school record.

Among the other top LadyDemon performances: sopho-more Madison Mortonbecame the second-fastest 400meter hurdler in school histo-ry, finishing first in 1:00.98;five-time SouthlandConference triple jump cham-pion Por’sha Thomas wonagain (41-1 ½); the LadyDemons’ 4x100 relay foursomeof Braneshia Payton,De’Shalyn Jones, JermekaMcBride and KeshiraMcKnight ran a winning45.79, the fastest in theSouthland Conference thisseason and equaling the fifth-fastest time in school history;and Jones ran the second-fastest 400 in program history,54.28

Other wins by the NSUwomen Saturday came byMcBride in the 100 (12.01,completing a sprint doubleafter taking the 200 Fridayevening); Erin Wrozek in the1500 (4:55.22); Payton in the100 hurdles (13.89); Jacqueline

Rushford in the3000 steeple-chase (11:54.10);and DestineyMyers in theshot put (44-4).

KennesawState competi-tors won fourwomen’s events while unat-tached athletes took two andDillard and Louisiana Techeach won once. KennesawState’s Kidan Kidane set ameet record with her 17:24.36time in the 5000.

In the men’s competition,the Demons’ 4x100 relay ofGabriel White, MicahLarkins, George Flaviano andAmir James blazed home in40.16, the country’s 25th besttime this season. James wonthe 100 Saturday in 10.55 intoa slight wind, completing asprint sweep after he took the200 Friday.

Senior Lawrence Wallace,a junior college All-American, posted his Demonpersonal best with a 6-9 ¾winning clearance in the highjump. Sophomore Cedric Paulmatched his season’s best inthe shot put, taking first at 57-6 ½, 50th in the country.

Lady Demons slug past Louisiana Tech 11-9By Matt VinesNSU Sports Info Office

After struggling at CentralArkansas this past weekend,the Northwestern Stateoffense jolted itself to life asthe Lady Demons took an 11-9 win Tuesday at LouisianaTech.

NSU (23-16) tied a season-high with 15 hits, led byjunior Kellye Kincannon’s 4-for-4 performance with fiveRBIs and two home runs.

Kincannon’s pair ofhomers move her into solepossession of second placeon NSU’s career home runleaders with 39, passing ErinMancuso’s 38.

After Kincannon hit a solohome run in the first inning,she had one of five RBIs byfive different players tospark a five-run secondinning to grab 6-0 lead.

NSU scored four of itsruns that inning before anout was recorded thanks toRBIs by sophomore SidneySalmans (1-for-2, two walksand two runs), juniorMicayla Sorosiak (3-for-5,three runs and two RBIs),Kincannon (two runs scored)and senior Natalie Landry.

“We played team offense,and we played together,” saidNSU coach Donald Pickettabout a team that scored tworuns combined in three loss-es to Central Arkansas thispast weekend. “This was abig step forward for usbecause everybody stayedtogether, and it relaxeseverybody in the lineup.

“Kellye Kincannon was a

leader, and shestepped uptonight. We’vebeen strug-gling, and weneeded aleader to stepup, and shewas that leader tonight. Wehad quality at-bats fromeverybody, and LouisianaTech had to work for everyout they got against us. Wehad big hits with runners onbase.”

Kincannon’s four hits is acareer-high while her fiveRBIs ties a season-high (fiveagainst Oklahoma State).Her career-high seven RBIscame against Louisiana Techin 2014.

Junior Brittney Jonesadded three hits and an RBI-double in the third inning.

NSU would need nearlyevery run they scored.

Louisiana Tech (21-14)answered with four second-inning runs to slash NSU’slead to 6-4, eventually chal-lenging the Lady Demonswith a three-run seventhinning that sliced a five-runNSU lead to 11-9.

Entering the game with a9-6 lead in the third inning,junior pitcher Shelby Sellsrecorded the final two outs ofthat frame without incidentbefore tossing three score-less innings.

Sells (9-8) recorded the lasttwo outs of the seventhinning with two runners inscoring position and an 11-9lead after surrendering threeruns in the inning. Sheallowed three runs on five

hits in 4 2-3 relief inningsafter sophomore MicaelaBouvier and freshmanKatelyn Boles combined for 21-3 innings.

Bouvier allowed five runson five hits and Boles onerun on one hit.

“We had to make a lot ofchanges tonight, and we did-n’t have great outings earlyin the game,” Pickett said.“Sells limited them by post-ing a few zeroes, and I guessthey got to her in the lastinning.

“But she bowed her neckand got us out of there. Thisshows what we can do whenwe fight together as a team.No matter if one phase ofthe game is struggling, or wemake a few mistakes, tonightshowed what we can do whenwe stay together.”

Kincannon singled infreshman Kaylee Isenburg(2-for-4) in the fifth inningbefore Kincannon blasted asolo home run in the seventhinning.

Louisiana Tech starterCarolina Sanchez (4-9) tookthe loss by allowing six runson seven hits in one inning.

Lady Techster KatieSmith led the way at theplate with a 2-for-4 effortwith five RBIs. Her three-runhome run keyed a four-runsecond inning and was one oftwo homers on the night.

NSU returns to actionwhen the Lady Demons (6-9in Southland Conferenceplay) host league leaderMcNeese State in a three-game series beginningFriday at 6 p.m.

Brandi Martin Harringtonwas valedictorian of the 2007graduating class of St. Mary’s.An active student, she playedon several varsity sportsteams including basketball,track, softball, cheer and ten-nis. At 15 Harrington knewshe wanted to work in themedical field and be a nurse.

After graduation,Harrington attended nursingschool at Northwestern StateUniversity on a full academicscholarship. She is a memberof Sigma Sigma Sigma sorori-ty and graduated from NSUSumma Cum Laude, with abachelor in nursing. She’sworked in CCU, ICU and pedi-atrics at Willis-KnightonNorth in Shreveport andNatchitoches RegionalMedical Center.

At St. Mary’s Harringtonpreforms many functions forthe school and staff including:

* Checks blood pressure* Arranges blood drives and

monitors contributors* Reviews and monitors

immunization records* Arranges flu vaccines* Monitors students with

asthma and allergies andhelps them in situationswhere inhalers or Epi pensare required

Harrington’s main respon-sibility as a school nurse ismonitoring the administra-tion of medication to stu-

dents. Until Harringtonbegan working in 2014, St.Mary’s had never had a full-time registered nurse on staff.

The liability of dispensingmedication in the educationalsetting has, by law, becomeextremely regimented.Students are not allowed toapply ointment or take med-ication (prescribed or over thecounter) while at school with-out the written consent of alicensed physician. While theschool nurse may not pre-scribe medication, she mayadminister it with a doctor’sorders.

Because she is CPR certi-fied, Harrington providestraining to students and staff.This service for students isprovided by the Hands overthe Heart Foundation. Sheteaches lessons to variousgrade levels, providing infor-mation on:

* Healthy eating advice* Conditions such as dia-

betes, asthma, seizure andanaphylaxis

Harrington is the campusexpert on dealing with com-municable childhood dis-eases, such as impetigo, headlice and conjunctivitis (pink

eye). And with over 200,000cases of childhood diabetesdiagnosed each year in theU.S., the care for the diabeticstudent in the educationalenvironment is best per-formed by a medical profes-sional. The care, managementand administration of med-ication and the monitoring ofblood sugars is a complicatedand critical part of propercare for the diabetic student.Harrington assists identifiedstudents with proper diet,medication, and when theneed arises, determines whenadditional care is required.

Her first year at the schoolHarrington was awardedfunding through a grant shewrote. It allowed the school topurchase a second AutomatedExternal Defibrillator (AED)and medical supplies.

She comes from a long listof St. Mary’s graduatesincluding her dad, (EdMartin, ‘82), her husbandDrake (‘06), her mother-in-law,Anna Cloutier Harrington(‘79), and Drake’s grandfatherArnold Cloutier (‘48).

“St. Mary’s provided mewith the educational back-ground, taught me studyhabits, and developed my testtaking stills,” saidHarrington. “The teachers Ihad over the years at St.Mary’s prepared me for col-lege. I also have to credit St.

Mary’s, along with my par-ents, for instilling Christianmorals and values in me. Iloved my time at St. Mary’sand I am proud to be able togive back to the school by

being on staff. I am so verythankful my children willenjoy the benefits of a privateschool Catholic education aswell.”

Let me posea question tomy male read-ers. (I supposesome femalereaders mayhave an answer to thisinquiry also.)

When you were 9 or 10years old, what was yourfavorite sports fantasy?

A. You win the NCAA FinalFour basketball champi-onship by sinking a longbucket with one second on theclock.

B. You win the Super Bowlby scoring a long touchdownrun with one second on theclock.

C. You hit a bases-loadedhome run in the bottom of theninth inning to win the WorldSeries.

For me, the answer was def-initely C. And with the recentstart of another baseball sea-son, my thoughts turn onceagain to the old diamond.

Basketball and football TVaudiences may be larger thanthose for baseball these days,but the latter game willalways be America’s pastimeto me.

I can’t tell you how manytimes I won the World Seriesfor the New York Yankeesback in the early 1950s. Rightin my own back yard.

I played centerfield for theYankees and somehow beatout Mickey Mantle for thatposition, probably because Ihit about .410 every year andnever made a fielding error.

How did I accomplish this?Well, by tossing a baseball inthe air while holding my batthen swatting the ball as itcame down, for numeroushome runs. When I was in thefield I threw the ball as highinto the air as I could andalways caught it for the finalout.

Then reality set in. When Itried out for Little League, Idiscovered, to my horror, thatI had trouble fielding hotground balls and that my hit-ting was only mediocre.

But, I played CYO softballwith some success for years,even blasting one over thecenterfield fence for a truehomerun.

Sadly, my team was St.Anthony’s of Baton Rouge,not the Yankees of New York.

I also had a nice collectionof baseball cards that woulddoubtless be worth somethingtoday, but they’re long gone.

I was absolutely thrilledwhen two Major Leagueteams came to Baton Rougefor a preseason game around1952.

The Boston (now Atlanta)Braves faced the PittsburghPirates at the old City ParkStadium. Though both teamswere perennial losers in thoseyears, I enjoyed every minuteof every inning.

Today, I watch a lot of base-ball on TV and I even have aneat little board game thatserves as a time machine.

You can get player cards forevery Major League teamfrom 1903 to last year. Rightnow I’m having a tournamentwith old World Series champs.Just last night, for example,the 1908 Chicago Cubs edgedthe 1912 Boston Red Sox, 2-0.Next, the 1914 Boston Braveswill take on the 1911Philadelphia Athletics.

So, as you can see, this ismy time of the year. Tonight,I’ll watch the Yankees playthe Detroit Tigers – the realteams, not the ones on myboard game. Play ball!

St. Denis announces heralds for 48th spring festival ball

By Donna Campbell

To hear drummer DonBrewer sing “We’re anAmerican Band” is worth theprice of admission to theNatchitoches Jazz/R&BFestival.

That autobiographicalsong from 1973 became thefirst number 1 single forGrand Funk Railroad and putthe band from Flint, Mich., onthe rock ‘n’ roll map: “We’rean American band, we’recomin’ to your town, we’llhelp you party it down.”

By the time Grand Funkhits the stage, Natchitocheswon’t need any more encour-agement to “party it down,”but it’s still nice of them tooffer.

Brewer will join singerMax Carl, bassist MelSchacher, lead guitarist BruceKulick and keyboardist TimCashion on the main stage onthe downtown riverbankSaturday, April 16, to close thetwo-day festival.

Brewer, calling from hishome in Jupiter, Fla., said hewas a regular visitor toLouisiana. He and the bandplayed a private Mardi Grasparty after the Bacchusparade in New Orleans earlierthis year. “We play 35 to 40dates a year,” he said. “It’skicked off to be a really goodyear.”

This will be their first timevisiting Natchitoches, hesaid. But before he gets here,he has to learn how to say it.

“Nag-a-do-jus? Natch-i-tochus?

“It’s pronounced Nack-a-tish,” he was told.

“Nackatish?”“Nackatish.”Brewer promised to prac-

tice before he makes it to thestage.

He’s also promising a rock-ing show and expects to seefans of all ages in the crowd.He said their older fans whofirst heard them in the 60sand 70s come to be remindedof their younger days, whilethe younger crowds come outof curiosity because they’veheard the music and want tosee the band. “They’re upthere on their feet partyingwith the rest of them,” hesaid.

The band loves playing out-door arenas, so the banks ofCane River Lake will be per-fect.

“We’ll get out there and it’sbeautiful weather,” he said.“Everybody knows the wordsto ‘Some Kind of Wonderful,’‘Coming Home,’ ‘AmericanBand,” he said.

Members of the band bringwith them a wealth of experi-ence. Carl played with .38 spe-cial, while Kulick played withKISS for 12 years. Cashionplayed with Bob Seger andRobert Palmer and Brewerstill plays with Seger whenhe’s not touring with his ownband.

“It’s amazing,” he said. “Wenever thought that when wewere in our 20s, we’d still bedoing this. I never thought I’dbe 67 still doing this.”

He likes the Grand Funktour schedule because it giveshim time to spend at homewith his wife and four grand-children. The couple dividetheir time between a home inFlorida and a horse ranch inNorth Carolina. Brewer,who’s also acting manager forthe band, squeezes in time onthe fairway when he can. Buthe’s never too far away fromthe music. “I’m a workaholic,I guess,” he said.

Brewer said fans at theJazzFest can expect to hearGrand Funk Railroad’s hitslike “Footstompin’ Music,”“Rock And Roll Soul,”“Shinin’ On,” ‘Loco-Motion,”“Some Kind Of Wonderful,”“I’m Your Captain/Closer ToHome” and of course “We’reAn American Band.” Theyplan to throw in a few sur-prises as well like an all-per-cussion arrangement of“Lightning and Thunder.”

The festival line-up April 15includes Lainey Wilson,Wayne Toups and Zydecajunand Cane Mutiny featuringHardrick Rivers.

On April 16, the lineup onthe Fleur De Lis Stageincludes Justin Meritt,Breaktime for Francis, JoshHyde, Floyd Grisby & the 5gkBand, Fat Chance and Dead orAlive.

The Roque House Stageentertainment will be Larry’sGroup, Kopacetic, Billy O’Conand Badd Apple, Extreme

Caution, Brody Caster, TheSidemen and Jared Bridges,while jazz fans can find theLukejazz Quintet, SabineRiver Brass Band, CypressLake Sextet, NSU Jazz Combo#1, David Duplissey Quintetand Antoine Stewart on the-

jazz stage.On the main stage, fans will

hear Johnny Earthquake andthe Moondogs, 7 Bridges, NewBreed Brass Band, Kylie Freyand Trini Triggs, the NSUJazz Orchestra, Midnight Starand Grand Funk Railroad.

Tickets at the gate are $10for adults April 15 and $20April 16. Discounts are avail-able for students with validID. Children under 12 andactive military personnelwith current ID and spouseare admitted free.

Grand Funk Railroad will close the two-day Natchitoches Jazz/R&B Festival Saturday, April16. From left are Bruce Kulick, Mel Schacher, Don Brewer, Max Carl and Tim Cashion.

‘American Band’ Grand Funk Railroad plans to rock Natchitoches

This year’s NatchitochesJazz R&B Festival is featur-ing a “Vegas-style” Tributeto Elvis Presley which willinclude Elvis’ former gui-tarist and band leader, JamesBurton, along with EstelleBrown of Elvis’ backinggroup,

The Sweet Inspirationswill be appearing withacclaimed local show bandJohnny Earthquake & TheMoondogs.

The band performed atribute at last year’s festivalwhich featured Brown alongwith Elvis’ original drum-mer, DJ Fontana but, accord-ing to Jarrett Bailey of TheMoondogs, this year’s showwill be quite different.

“We’re going to do our bestto try and recreate the spiritand excitement of Elvis’ 70sera shows” Bailey said. “Ofcourse, it will never be the

same without Elvis, butworking with James andEstelle, who were integralparts of all of Elvis’ showsfrom 1969 until his death in1977, is just as good as itgets.”

“Last year’s show,” Baileycontinued, “because we hadDJ on drums, focused a bitmore on Elvis’ earlyyears. This year, the focuswill be more on what we callhis white jump suit period.”

Brown will be appearingwith a group of female vocal-ists called “The NewInspirations.” There will alsobe a gospel quartet called“United,” additional hornplayers, and even a timpaniplayer.

Brown is looking forwardto returning to Natchitochesfor a second straight year. “Ihad a ball down there lastyear,” she said. “Everyone

was so nice to me. TheMoondogs are a fabulousgroup and it’s always a plea-sure sharing the stage withJames again.”

“We’ve gone to greatlengths to try and recreatethose concerts as the songsfrom those concerts as close-ly as we can to the best of ourabilities,” Bailey said.

“And I think folks will beimpressed with the results. Itcertainly doesn’t hurt havingJames and Estelle help us inrehearsals since they werethere when it all happened”.

The Vegas-style tribute toElvis is scheduled to beginon the main stage Saturday,April 16 at 5:35 p.m.

Monday, April 11News is short this week but

to give you a little sample ofwhat next week will look like,I plan to take you back in time.

It will be about the BelmontBears. They were the Class CState Champions in 1964-65.Sadly, it was also the last yearof their beloved BelmontSchool, but they did go outwith a bang.

The date was March 7, 1965.I remember being glued to the

radio while everyone else wasattending the State payoffs atthe Hirsch Coliseum inShreveport.

With 43 wins already undertheir belt and only four loses,the Belmont Bears were ready.They were going up againstFrench Settlement, a smalltown located in LivingstonParish.

But, it wasn’t an easy win.They were there for a reason.They were the best of the best,and they were thirsty for thewin and to hold that trophyup.

The game was at the end;tied up and Belmont had theball with two foul shots left.

Next week I will tell youwho made those shots. It wasthose two foul shots that wonthe game.

Not many of the Belmont

Bears are left. I reached out toJimmy Wooley and he gave mesome info but he is like therest of us; our memories arenot that good and that was along time ago. But somehowthat good feeling will comeover you when you think backto those good ole days and avictory is nothing but sweet.

If you have any memoriesof the school days at Belmont,give me a call or e-mail me atnewslady1952@yahoo.com.

If you have a year book, orphotos, I will take them andgive them back in the samecondition. These items arepriceless and I know how I feelabout my yearbooks. I needthe info soon so don’t put it off.

There will be lots of placesto go and things to do. See youback next week with the restof the story.

need to love the way he did,by looking past skin colorand nationality and insteadsee the souls of people forwhom He died.

I got so spiritual for thewords of God, so I want toapologize for last week’s cor-respondence. I was underthe weather.

Monday, April 11Let’s go down to the craw-

fish pond. Springtimereminds me when, as chil-dren, we would get a pole,string and a piece of saltedmeat and head on down to thecrawfish pond. We wouldcatch a mess of mudbugs, butit’s funny how we never camehome with an empty bucket.Even the parents would gofishing and we were sure tohave fresh fish for supper.Those were definitely the good

ole days, plus we were bare-foot too.

Springtime brings aboutthe outdoors, swimming, rid-ing bikes and playing hop-scotch and rig-around-the-rosy. You name it and as kidswe enjoyed it. Oh, to make aplayhouse again, and ofcourse the mud cakes. Kidstoday are only interested inthe Internet, games andphones. It’s a shame how ourchildren are missing out onthe good part of life, which isjust being a kid.

We had a wonderful Sundayschool lesson titled, “A FreshStart.” The lesson was takenfrom Luke and Pastor Taylortaught it. The Good Hope FullGospel Baptist invite the pub-lic to attend a ChristiansTraining event on the thirdSunday of the month and a

Grandkids makespring break trip

Monday, April 11A few of the folks who had

to leave their homes becauseof the flood are now able toreturn. But some will never beable to return like DorothyBrossett Wright who has livedaround her dad, PercyBrossett’s place, most of herlife. She cannot go back to herplace.

Some also lost a lot ofbelongings like boats thatfloated away, like doghousesad such. So if you find a boatfloating around, make a noteof it.

Pass the word that you havefound a boat and try to findthe owner.

I know in years past, afterhigh water, we would findstray boats and always foundthe owner.

The folks on Hart Road andPardee Road areas had mas-sive cleanup this weekendaccording to Clettis Self. Shecould not believe the amountof trash they picked up.

My children were con-cerned about home house-to-house salesmen who camehere Saturday. There werethree of them, two women anda man with a legitimate com-pany but even I have to say itwas strange how things hap-pened. The girls left sayingthey needed to go back and seesomeone else and left the manhere for a very long time. Isurely did not like that eventhough he was very nice.

I had the opportunitySunday to see my great grand-son, Larry Wayne “Bubba”Henry in a dirt bike race inCastor. It was my first, eventhough Bubba has been doingthis since 2004 when he was12. For the entire family it

takes so much just for the bikeand upkeep. His bike is No. 23.

Early on, his mom and dad,Rachel and Wayne Henry ofHall Summit, purchased avery large motor home, neces-sary to go to some of theseplaces to spend the weekendthere.

After Bubba graduatedfrom high school and wasemployed, he grew even moreengrossed in the dirt bake rac-ing. And of course, his grand-dad, Chuck Walker, is alsoknee deep in it and supportsBubba every way he can.

He is now considered a proand has several sponsors,Autism MX being the one he ismost proud of. He now has hisown luxury motor home andhis constant companion is his100-pound yellow lab namedRhett. There are usuallyaround 200 bike riders at eachevent with of course differentcategories. They do some pret-ty dangerous stuff.

However, I have not heardof anyone being seriouslyinjured. Bubba has had a fewclose calls. Needless to saythis is really a family project.

When you finally driveback into the out-of-the-wayplaces where their camp spotsand tracks are, you will firstsee a guy with a pad, ready tosign you in and take yourmoney. You begin to see a seaof motor homes and y willalso see just about any kind ofATV that is made just millingaround.

When it’s time for the racesto begin, each group starts atdifferent intervals. They ridefor 90 minutes. I did not see itbut they said the only problemBubba had was that he wipedout in one of the curves butcame back to place third.Many have to drop out, somewith bike problems, somewith something as simple ashand cramps. But I was soimpressed with all those peo-ple and how they seemed tolook out for one another.

I was happy to get to goenjoy the day with many of

my family., five generations.Myself, son church and daugh-ter Rachel, her son bubba anddaughter Kimberly with herthree little sons. They tookcare of all my needs exceptthe ear plugs. Then greatgranddaughter KimberlyMangum an husband Chris,made it up to take me toCoushatta Friday since she hajust gotten her boutiqueopened, to do my hair andprimp and then take me out todinner. The hairdo or some-thing must have made a differ-ence because I went onto thechurch for our Young-at-Heartmeeting and they all madelike they did not know who Iwas. (Fun, fun.)

Gladys McCrory Zumwaltand I will meet with JimMcCrory. We are so excited toput all our info together andknow more about ourMcCrory heritage. I also havea nephew, son of Red McCroryof Campti-Black Lake, Edwardwho lives near Lafayette. Wewill be meeting again withhim soon. He is really anxiousto find out more about hisMcCrory heritage.

The Red Cross and otheragencies are still in this areatrying to help people. CynitaNash, council member, andothers worked with the RedCross in distributing supplieslast weekend. Our pastor, Dr.Mike Honzell and wife Beckyjust returned Saturday fromPennsylvania where they sawtheir son, his wife an theirnew baby. Jeff Mahloch filledthe pulpit at Untied while theywere gone. Jess has beengoing to the nursing homes forsome time. He is my nephew.

My nephew Buddy Robertsis anxiously waiting for hisprosthesis.

FAMILY FEATURES

Moms pride themselves on serving their families wholesome, homemade meals. But here’s the reality: 60 percent of moms think that coming up with dinner ideas is more difficult than getting their children to go to bed on time. Moreover, 61 percent of moms frequently order takeout or go out to eat becausethey don’t have the ingredients on-hand to make dinner. It’s time for a new strategy.

When it comes to mealtime, a well-stocked pantry can be the difference between culinary success and a dinnerfailure. With a pantry full of canned foods, a delicious and nutritious homemade meal is just minutes away.

It’s no secret that canned foods are convenient, but did you know that cans are also one of the best ways to get foodfrom the farm to your family’s table? Canned fruits and vegetables are picked and packed when they’re at their peakof ripeness and nutrition, sealing in their freshness and flavor. Just like home canning, the canning process locks infoods’ natural goodness so it’s at arm’s reach whenever you’re ready to get cooking.

A pantry stocked with canned ingredients is also a source of recipe inspiration. Staples such as canned chicken,corn, green chilies, olives, beans and tomatoes atop lettuce combine to create a wholesome Chicken Burrito Salad thewhole family will enjoy. And in less than 30 minutes, a box of fettuccine and a can of spinach transform into a heartyPasta with Spinach Pesto.

For more information, recipe inspiration and the benefits of canned foods, visit CansGetYouCooking.com.
