Ocean Art Gallery in Flagler Beach held an opening art reception on April 7 for thirteen of Florida’s award-winning plein air and studio artists who showcased their unique art styles in an exhibit titled “Fabulous Florida.”
The artists in this exhibit, which will end with a closing party from 6-8 p.m. May 4, are: Trish Beckham, John Caggiano, Kathleen Chenet, Priscilla Coote, Charles Dickinson, Rebecca Eagan, Cynthia Edmonds, Sally Evans, Martha Lent, Peter Pettegrew, Morgan Samuel Price, Gary Rupp and Tom Sadler. Each artist will have up to three pieces of art in the exhibit.
P&L Stables received help from 38 University of Delaware student volunteers who partnered with the National Relief Network to assist in the disaster relief efforts in Flagler County related to the recent hurricanes. The group spent March 26-29 repairing fences and cleaning the grounds at the stable located at 390 Sawgrass Rd, Bunnell.
"They worked diligently repairing fences, removing fallen trees, clearing brush all with focus, dedication and positive attitude,” P&L Stables Owner Pam Stolsworth said in a press release.
Palm Coast resident Serge Judro attended the Palm Coast City Council meeting on Tuesday, April 3, to thank his coworkers and the Engine 21 crew who responded when he collapsed Feb. 15.
Judro didn't feel well on Feb. 15 when he went to work, but he didn’t realize he was experiencing signs of a heart attack. His coworkers didn’t notice that anything was wrong until Judro collapsed. They called 911 and immediately began CPR. Upon arrival of Palm Coast Fire Engine 21, the crew of Lt. Daniel Driscoll, Driver Engineer Adam Bachman and Firefighter-Paramedic Kalin Graham found Judro in cardiac arrest.
Because of the extraordinary chain of events on Feb. 15, Judro is here today as one of the 10 percent of people who survive an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.
Palm Coast Fire Chief Mike Beadle presented lifesaving awards to Sandvik employees Nate Kife, Gene Kleinschmit, Tricia Pacionis and Lori Scorpio, saying not all first responders are firefighters. Driscoll, Bachman and Graham of Palm Coast Engine 21 received a Unit Citation.
Imagine School at Town Center’s second-annual pop tab collection contest raised 208 pounds of pop tabs to benefit the Ronald McDonald House. ISTC student Jackson Branstrator, who is in Brenda Curry’s class, won the contest, and the class will celebrate with an ice cream party.
The cause is near to ISTC students, as the Branstrator family stayed at the Ronald McDonald House for 45 days while Jackson was receiving radiation therapy. Jackson was diagnosed with brain cancer in July 2016 and finished treatment in September 2017.

Rymfire Elementary School held a 5K on Saturday, April 7. Flagler Schools Superintendent James Tager ran with 90 Roadrunners from the Rymfre Running Club.
The Flagler County Democratic Executive Committee elected Stephanie Capehart as the new chair.
Capehart has called Palm Coast home since March 1998. Her political involvement began with the 2016 presidential election, and she quickly moved from volunteer status to a leadership role when she established the Coquina Coast Democratic Progressive Caucus in January of 2017. She has also held the first Vice President position in the recently revitalized Democratic Women’s Club of Flagler County.
