On April 20, the campus’ youngest and oldest students traveled to a nearby beach to make a difference, while those in grade three traveled to South Ponte Vedra Beach for their outreach. In addition to collecting litter and other debris, students also took time to observe marine life and absorb science instruction from teacher Carolyn Houston. Beach clean ups for all classes are ongoing along area beaches through the rest of the week.

FIELD DAY AT BOLLES PONTE VEDRA BEACH Garnett and Gold Scholar CAMPUS HIGHLIGHTS COLLEGE TEAMS Society inducts Ponte Vedra’s Slade and St. Augustine’s Hale Florida State University welcomed 236 new inductees, including Beth Slade of Ponte Vedra High and Margaret Hale of St. Augustine, into its Garnet and Gold Scholar Society this spring. Established in 2010, the society facilitates student involvement and recognizes undergraduate students who excel within and beyond the classroom in at least three of five areas: international experience, internship, leadership, research and service. The induction ceremony was held virtually this spring due to COVID-19. “We are proud to welcome this new group of inductees to the Garnet and Gold Scholar Society,” said Amy Hecht, vice president for student affairs. “They are a wonderful representation of the university, and we are pleased to give them recognition for their involvement bettering the campus and community.” Slade studied theater; Hale studied nursing. To become an inductee of the Garnet and Gold Scholar Society, students must meet the engagement criteria and submit a synthesis reflection project in their final semester before graduation. Participants are recognized during graduation and receive a designation on their official university transcript, both of which make the students more marketable to potential employers or graduate programs.

The Navy Nationals comprise a series of nine events — five drill, three athletic and one academic — where the cumulative scores are added to determine the overall national champion. Nease represented NJROTC Area-12, which covers the 60 NJROTC programs across Northern Florida and Georgia, having won the Area-12 Drill Championship last month in Lee County, Georgia. Nease won first place in two events — the 16-by-100 relay and unarmed basic drill. The team garnered six additional trophies, including third place in overall athletics, armed basic drill, armed exhibition drill and pushups. Two cadets earned individual medals for athletics — Emmelie Neff finished fourth in situps with 320 and Amber Vidler finished sixth in pushups with 86.

As told to Holly Tishfield Can you please briefly tell us about your background? Mary Marx I have been involved in children’s advocacy for more than 30 years through my work in Florida with Pace Center for Girls, and the Cultural Center at Ponte Vedra Beach and in the San Francisco Bay area, through the Museum of Children’s Art and the East Bay Conservation Corps. Through my current involvement in advocacy, I have been fortunate to work with great partners on local, state and federal legislation to prevent girls who have experienced significant trauma from dropping out of school and preventing them from entering the juvenile justice system or involvement in human trafficking. Nationally, I serve on the Legislative and Juvenile Law committees for the National Council of Juvenile and Family Court Judges. Statewide, I am a Leadership Florida graduate, and locally, I am a Leadership Jacksonville graduate and a member of the Women’s Giving Alliance. In our community, I am honored to serve as the Ponte Vedra Rotary Club’s club counselor for Rotary Youth Exchange, where we send Ponte Vedra high school students on year-long global exchanges and host students from around the world for a year at Ponte Vedra High School.

What do you enjoy most about your role? As president and CEO, I have the opportunity to work alongside an amazing group of colleagues, partners, volunteers and elected officials to ensure that marginalized girls have an opportunity to change their lives and set themselves on a path to a successful future. Pace started in Jacksonville in 1985, and since that time has grown to be statewide, helping more than 40,000 girls find a path to success across 22 of Florida’s most diverse communities. Recently we expanded into Georgia and now have the opportunity to make an impact in other states. One of the most fulfilling parts of my role as CEO is seeing the impact Pace has on girls, their families and the communities we serve. Pace girls are our next generation of mothers, workforce and community leaders, and it is humbling to watch them find their voice and achieve their potential. What are some of the challenges that your industry/ company is facing? Every day, we help girls address some of the biggest challenges women face in the 21st century, including gender, economic and racial inequality.

NEW SKATE RAMP WORLD WATER DAY FUN RUN RETURNS Local teacher building Rotary Club of Ponte Vedra Chemo Noir’s 1-mile run, vertical skate ramp for raises funds to help provide wine-tasting event comes community kids clean water in Cambodia back to beach June 26

SCHOLARSHIP FUND Sawgrass Country Club raises funds for JAGA golfers 16 GIFT OF GIVING: FIRST COAST NONPROFITS Ponte Vedra Recorder · April 29, 2021 Local teacher building vertical skate ramp for community kids The next time you’re driving through West Au- gustine, don’t be surprised if you see people flying through the air. Brennan Gagnon, a local homeowner and teacher at R. J. Murray Middle School, is building an 11-foot- tall, 24-foot-wide vertical skate ramp in his backyard. Once completed, Datil Pepper Vert Ramp will be open to members of the community for free. When Gagnon closed on his first home this past year, he immediately knew it was the perfect opportunity to pursue his dream of providing a safe space for kids to come together and experience something new. “Vert skating offers a unique set of thrills that a lot of skateboarding doesn’t offer,” explained Gagnon. “Skateboarding, in general, offers two unique opportunities. Both the community and the people that you’re able to meet are incredibly special. I thought to myself, ‘If I’m ever able to become a homeowner, I would love to raise the money or save the money and build a vert ramp for kids to use, create friendships, develop confidence and just really conquer something.’” As a youth worker and teacher in West Augustine, Gagnon was aware of the need to create something special for kids in the community. Since they broke ground, the project has raised more R. J. Murray Middle School teacher Brennan Gagnon and two young helpers are seen atop the vertical skate ramp they are building than $12,000 for material and labor, while additional for the community’s kids. funds for a staircase, ladders, fans and lights are still needed. Upon completion of the ramp, other donations will go toward purchasing a set of “house gear” to store onsite for kids who don’t have their own, including skateboards, helmets and protective pads. “Skateboarding offers an outlet,” explained Gagnon. “Growing up can be tough on young kids, and the kids where I live are under the highest amount of stress, so it just seemed natural to open up that space. It is also an excellent opportunity for cross-cultural relationships and friendships to form between local residents and those outside the community who might never have stepped foot in West Augustine otherwise. I want to give a huge thank you to anyone who has given this project any ounce of attention, money or time.” The Datil Pepper Vert Ramp is located on Tocoi Road in West Augustine and will be open to the community during set hours to be determined at a later date.

One of the best arm wrestlers in Northeast Florida.

Hi, I’m Carolyn Zisser, co-founder and partner at Zisser Family Law.

I established the first woman-owned Family Law practice in Jacksonville over 40 years ago. So, I sharpened my negotiating and often times, my arm-wrestling skills, early on.

I’ve come to understand psychological family dynamics. When difficult family matters arise, we have the skills, insight, empathy—and the toughness when necessary— to better facilitate each family’s resolution.

The repeated phrase that makes me want to paint myself with Harry Pappas honey and jump in a nest of fire Columnist ants is, “Stocks are booming but the economy is so bad. Something is not right.” The only thing that is not right is that you are trying to figure out why (sarcasm). Daaang it, don’t do that to yourself! It’s not worth it. Instead of getting into the weeds, just remember five words: Stocks are not the economy! Mike Santoli, from CNBC, was spot on when he said, “In 2020, as the virus surged, economic growth crashed, unemployment shot up, poverty spiked, and democracy crumbled, what Photo provided by the Ponte Vedra Inn & Club happened to stock prices?
