FROM STAFF REPORTS

MARBLE FALLS — For the month of April, a blue ribbon will don the masthead of The Picayune as the publication shows its support for Child Abuse Prevention Month. While it’s a tough topic, The Picayune wants to encourage you to

get involved with preventing child abuse. There are several organizations in the Highland Lakes that work with abused children that always need help. You can help by simply donating to one of the groups, or you can vol-unteer on some level. Each of us can make a difference in the life of a child. An easy way is simply displaying

a blue ribbon. The blue ribbon became a symbol in the crusade against child abuse in 1989 when Bonnie Finney of Norfolk, Va., tied one to her car antenna. Finney’s grandson died as a result of child abuse. She tied the blue rib-bon to her van’s antenna to raise awareness about child abuse. “Even if we change one child’s

life, it would be worth it,” Finney said. “I don’t want other parents or grandparents to go through what we are going through.” That blue ribbon has grown into a national campaign to prevent child abuse. The level of involvement you decide upon is up to you, but please get involved. Each week, The

Picayune will highlight one of the Highland Lakes organizations work-ing to end child abuse. Find one you want to help, and give them a call or send them an email asking, “How can I help?” This week, it’s the Burnet County Child Welfare Board. For more on it, go to Page 3. [email protected]

M A R B L E F A L L S — Sometimes the toughest part of getting information on the care of older adults is knowing where to find resources. The Highland Lakes Health

Partnership addresses that issue with its annual Elder Care Fair on April 6 from 9 a.m. to noon at the Boys & Girls Club of the Highland Lakes, 1701 Broadway St. Admission is free for the event that features more than 50 booths

Annual event is a ‘one-stop shop’

LLANO — The first time Keenan Fletcher competed in the Llano Fiddle Fest, she figured she had it in the bag. After all, as a classical-trained violinist who originally hailed from California, how tough could Texas-style fiddle playing be? “I came in dead last,” Fletcher said, now several years removed from the experience. “It was crazy.” Still, Fletcher wasn’t convinced Texas fiddle playing was anything special. But she picked up a CD by fiddler Jesse Mears and spent almost a year listening to it, trying to figure the appeal of the style. Finally, she reached out to Mears and asked if she could take lessons from him. “He said ‘No,’” Fletcher said with a laugh. “I couldn’t believe it. I kept asking him, and he kept saying, ‘No.’ Finally, I wore him down, and he agreed to take me to my first jam.” The experience didn’t just give her a new appreciation for Texas fiddling, it changed her musical direction. “These fiddlers, they had all this

MARBLE FALLS — Bessie Jackson recalls how, as a young girl, one of her father’s favorite tunes not only kindled her love of singing spiritual hymns but her

commitment to community service. “My daddy used to sing this song at night, ‘If I can help some-body as I pass along, then my living won’t be in vain,’” she said. “Don’t leave nothing the way you found it. Always leave it better.” Jackson, 70, said the song and

her faith have motivated her to put family and the needs of others above herself. She is the president of Mission Outreach, a nonprofit organization that serves those in need in Marble

music in their heads, and they were playing fast and furious,” Fletcher said. “I came home ... and began studying Texas fiddle.” The Texas style shines April 5-7 during the Llano Fiddle Fest. The main event is the 36th Llano Open Fiddle Contest on April 6 at the LanTex Theater, 113 W. Main St. The contest runs 10 a.m. to about 5 p.m. While this marks the 36th year Llano has hosted a fiddle con-test, it had been absent for several years. Llano County resident John Caballero became one of the forces behind resurrecting the festival and contest. “John has really done a tremen-dous job with this,” Fletcher said. “The Llano contest is recognized as

Savannah Still plays a tune on her fiddle as she prepares for the Llano Fiddle Fest. The 18-year-old began taking classical violin lessons from Llano instructor Keenan Fletcher many years ago, but then Fletcher had her try Texas fiddle, and Still says she hasn’t gone back. The festival is April 5-7 in Llano. STAFF PHOTO BY DANIEL CLIFTON

BURNET — As far as organiza-tions go, the Burnet County Child Welfare Board deals with the most precious citizens of the community: our children. The all-volunteer board has one mission: “To know the needs and to aid in the implementation of a pro-gram for the protection, care, health and well-being of all children with the focus being given to the abused and neglected children of Burnet County.” Board president Marsha Neel said it’s important that the community not only knows child abuse and neglect exist, but that people can be part of the solution. “As much as we want to think it does not happen here, children are abused and neglected in Burnet County,” she said. “We, as family, friends and neighbors of these chil-dren, are the first line of defense for them. We see what is happening and need to be there to protect these inno-cent kids.” The board helps educate people about the signs of child abuse and points citizens in the directions of the various organizations for these children. “Each of us can involve ourselves in helping these children by becoming aware of signs of abuse and neglect and by being willing to get involved,” Neel said. The involvement level depends on each person. But there is a place for everyone to help prevent child abuse. People can attend a Burnet County Child Welfare Board meeting to learn about opportunities to assist. The board meets 11 a.m. the second Wednesday of each month at the Hill Country Children’s Advocacy Center, 1001 N. Hill St. in Burnet. The board works with other chil-dren’s agencies in the county and across the Highland Lakes to pro-mote activities that help abused and neglected youth. The board members also do things as simple as sending birthday cards to all Burnet County children in fos-ter care. They also partner with the Court Appointed Special Advocates for the Highland Lakes Area to host a Christmas party for the children. The board members answer ques-tions and pass out literature during events such as Kids Day in Burnet and Children’s Day in Marble Falls. The board also helps maintain the Rainbow Room at the Burnet County Child Protective Services office in Burnet. The room provides CPS staff with immediate resources such as children’s clothing, diapers and baby formula and other needs. Sometimes when CPS removes a child or children, the kids leave with just a few items, so staff can obtain other necessities from the Rainbow Room. Helping out could be as simple as donating new items to the Rainbow Room. For more information on assisting the room, call (512) 756-6006. [email protected]

13th Annual

Falls for the past 27 years. As a result of her most recent com-munity efforts connected to Mission Outreach, Jackson was honored in March as the 2012 Outstanding Citizen by the Marble Falls/Lake LBJ Chamber of Commerce.

FEEDING THE NEEDY Her efforts in fundraising, coor-dination and organization connected to a new fellowship hall project for the program culminated in the recent groundbreaking of the project, adjacent to St. Frederick’s Baptist Church, 301 Ave. N, in March. Jackson is the church administrator. The hall will serve as the new loca-tion for the program that feeds as many

as 900 people during its Thanksgiving event. On Saturdays, Jackson and area-wide church volunteers also serve meals, reaching out to the St. Frederick’s congregation as well as the flock from First United Methodist Church, Fellowship Baptist Church and First Baptist Church, all in Marble Falls. Her husband, Henry, cooks the meals. “My love of the Lord says that my special gift is servant. That’s all I know how to do. I’m happy when I’m serv-ing,” she said. “It’s rewarding to see those people who come to the church and need help. We’ll do what’s neces-sary to make it happen.”

FAMILY ROOTS Originally from Dallas, she moved to Marble Falls in the 1980s, joining the church and working for Marble Falls Independent School District. She raised three girls and two boys. Her daughter Beverly, 49, is a recent medical technology graduate; Becky, 46, is an employer consultant who has written three books and works with clients across the country; and her daughter Renee, 43, is a special needs paraprofessional at MFISD. Jackson’s late sons, Berry, 41, and Bryan, 42, died from health-related issues. Jackson has eight grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren. In her early career, she worked as an administrative assistant for a school administrator, eventually becoming a teacher’s aide for the Marble Falls High School resource program. She said as an aide for the school district, she perceived disparities in dis-cipline, treatment and opportunities for economically disadvantaged students. “I raised several ruckuses, and I decided to get into (politics),” she said of her foray into public office and the school board that began in 1984. “There was so many different injus-tices. Things were still the status quo.” Jackson campaigned for guidelines in extracurricular activities that are

based in academic achievement and good behavior. Subsequently, she was elected for two more terms for a total of seven years on the school board.

LEAVE NOTHING UNDONE Jackson moved to Granite Shoals around 2000. By then, she had switched careers to become a pharmacy techni-cian. A community member inspired her to serve an unexpired vacant term on Granite Shoals City Council, run for the seat and eventually serve as an elected member. “It was super-interesting. I saw the potential of Granite Shoals far beyond what it could be capable of doing,” she said. “The Dollar General came in, and the tax revenue almost tripled in one year.” She reached her term limit in May 2012. Jackson currently works for the T.Q. Brown Community Center, based in Marble Falls, as a senior adviser for the AARP program. “I get up. I come to work. I love what I do,” she said. “It’s such a rewarding thing.” She and her husband recently adopt-ed 5-year-old L.D. “There is not a quiet moment in the house,” she said. “God put him in my lap. “Family is the most important thing in my life. I’m a firm believer you leave nothing undone,” she added. “You can do anything you set your mind to. With God being your leader, there’s nothing to stop you.” Jackson said she uses a single guid-ing principle, whether she deals with friends, family, business associates or those in need. “Follow you’re heart. Depression comes down when you do nothing, especially if you sit in the dark,” she said. “Whatever it is that makes the light burn in your eyes, your heart throb, I think you ought to do it, and serving is especially the best thing ever.” [email protected]

DEATH NOTICES


JOHNSON CITY — Get your tastes buds ready. It’s chili-cooking time in the Highland Lakes. Organizers with the Texas Men’s State Chili and Barbecue Championships anticipate more than 150 chili cooks for the April 5-6 event at the Blanco County Fairgrounds, located on the east side of U.S. 281 along the Pedernales River. “It’s a great event on its own, but it’s also the men’s championship for chili and barbecue,” said Alan Dean, a Blanco County chili afi-cionado and a member of the Chili Appreciation Society International. “It’s open to any male, 18 years and older. You can register online or just show up at the event.” Cooks can earn an invitation to the Terlingua International Chili Championship in October. Depending on the number of cooks who compete at the Texas Men’s State Chili Championship, the top five could get automatic spots at Terlingua, while the top 10 could earn points toward qualifying, Dean said. While the cooks are definitely competing for the title and points,

these events are more than about winning, he explained. “We all want to win, but we all recognize how subjective the judg-ing is, so it has to be fun and for a good cause,” Dean said. CASI cook-offs have raised thousands, if not millions, of dol-lars for charities and nonprofit organizations across the United States. “It’s really all about chili, char-ity and fun,” Dean said. “For us, it’s as much a social event as any-thing. The camaraderie and having fun with each other, those are the key ingredients.” But why chili? What makes it so special? Dean jumped into the fun in 1991 when his running club spon-sored a chili cook-off “as an excuse to get together.” But the chili pod quickly took hold of Dean, and he began trying out recipes, attending cook-offs and tweaking things as he went. His wife, Susan, became quite a chili cook in her own right, winning the 2008 Terlingua International Chili Championship. “Chili is the national dish of Texas,” Dean said. “But I think what makes chili different than any other food is everybody who cooks chili thinks their way is the

best way. And it’s simply just a lot of fun to make.” The Johnson City cook-off fea-tures competitions in not just chili but also barbecue, beans, ribs and chicken wings. The festivities start April 5 with a domino tournament, music and a cooks’ party. The cooks fire up their grills, pits and ovens April 6 for the actual competitions. The event isn’t just for con-

testants. Dean said organizers are always looking for folks to come out and enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of the cook-off as well as the tastes. “We need judges,” he said. “Anybody interested in judging can come out, ask to judge and we’ll set them up.” For more information, go to www.texasmenschili.org.

with health-care and well-being infor-mation for both older adults and their caretakers. “One of the most difficult issues elderly residents or their caregivers face is they don’t know where to find a lot of the resources available to them or even that those resources exist,” said Lynn Wisdom of HLHP and Seton Highland Lakes. “That’s one of the great things about the Elder Care Fair, all those resources are under one roof.” People can gather information from the many booths, including Seton Highland Lakes, Scott & White Hospital-Llano, Cancer Care Centers of South Austin, Capital Area Parkinson’s Society, Hill Country Memorial Texas Hills Vascular Specialists and many others. Wisdom said the event includes several exhibitors offering free health screenings. Most of it comes down to getting information in the hands of people who need it. This includes the elderly and their children and caregivers. Adult children of older residents can learn a great deal about services available to their parents at the fair. Often the adult children are very involved in health decisions their parents make, officials said. HLHP is a nonprofit organization that focuses on health-related issues that impact area residents. Wisdom said the Elder Care Fair is one of the ways the group addresses its goals. “The fair serves our mission very well,” she said. “It’s a one-stop shop for everybody who wants to learn about the services and resources avail-able for the elderly and older adults.” For more information on the fair or HLHP, go to www.highland lakeshealthpartnership.org.

MARBLE FALLS — When it comes to aging and health, a large part of society’s focus falls on physi-cal activity and diet, but those are only part of the big picture. The arts, whether enjoying or prac-ticing them, can make a big difference in a person’s life, no matter his or her age. Research supports the need for older residents to have access to the arts. “Studies have shown that challeng-ing, participatory programs promote better health and disease prevention, resulting in higher levels of indepen-dence and less need for long-term care,” said Barbara Bend, execu-tive director at Harmony School of Creative Arts in Marble Falls. Harmony School will be one of the more than 50 exhibitors at the 2013

Elder Care Fair on April 6 at the Boys & Girls Club of the Highland Lakes, 1701 Broadway St. The fair is 9 a.m.-noon. Learning a musical instrument or studying watercolor painting falls with those “challenging, participatory pro-grams.” Often the arts are overlooked for their benefits, both for young and old. The arts help keep people connect-ed with each other, Bend pointed out, which helps with their social well-be-ing. But learning something new, espe-cially for adults, can be challenging because it means taking on a begin-ner’s role, which often makes people uncomfortable. Bend said it really comes down to a supportive setting. As a director of a perform-ing-and-visual-arts school, Bend has seen the positive benefits the arts have on older residents.

Participation in the arts benefits elderly “We’ve had a number of adults begin taking music lessons, some as beginners and some returning after years of inactivity,” Bend said. “These folks approach learning with vigor, as they are choosing to do so for them-selves. They enjoy being a part of a larger group, whether chamber music or simply an adult music social. It’s a way to enjoy and appreciate music in a social setting, which I think is one of (key benefits).” Arts, like physical activity, benefit beyond the activity itself. “There are two things that are possibly most consequential and measurable: being the increased social engagement — combating the feeling of isolation — and also the increased cognitive function, both resulting in improved health — physical and men-tal — as well as moral,” Bend added. For more information on the importance and value of the arts, stop by the Harmony School and ArtFrog Academy booths at the Elder Care Fair. [email protected]

MARBLE FALLS — Dr. Elissa Thompson smiled as she unwrapped the blood-pressure cuff from a man with slightly graying hair. “That’s what I want to see,” the Marble Falls cardiologist said. “And all it took was some walking.” The man’s blood pressure dropped several points from a previous read-ing Thompson took just 45 minutes earlier. The difference, the man and about 27 other people completed their regular Heart Walk one Saturday morning. “Exercise is the easiest and sim-plest way to prevent heart disease and the health problems associated with it,” Thompson said. “And walking is the easiest way to do it.” Last fall, Thompson, a cardiolo-gist with Austin Heart in Marble Falls, started hosting the weekly Heart Walk every Saturday at 9 a.m. from her office parking lot, 1701 Mormon Mill Road. Her goal was simple: Get people moving. Renata Cowart, a physical thera-pist from Kingsland, strapped on her walking shoes and joined the week-ly jaunts about six weeks ago. As a physical therapist, she wanted to set a good example for her patients and clients. Quickly, she found walking a great way to just feel better. “After I get done, I feel great for the rest of the day,” she said. “It’s a

‘Easiest’ exercise provides many health benefits

great all-around exercise. You can go out and do it at your own pace, but the benefits are amazing.” Though Cowart only started the regular walks six week ago, she said she’s already noticed positive benefits to her health and being. That’s the beauty of walking and exercise, Thompson said. “Heart disease is the No. 1 killer in the United States,” she said. Exercise helps address all the health issues that lead up to heart disease, such as high blood pres-sure, diabetes and sedentary living. Thompson knows one of the most difficult parts of exercising is

getting started and then keeping at it. The weekly walks serve as a form of encouragement. “People come out here, meet other people and really form a camaraderie,” Thompson said. The walks are open to every-body and are free. Another way to get more infor-mation on heart health for seniors is the 2013 Elder Care Fair on April 6 from 9 a.m. to noon at the Boys & Girls Club of the Highland Lakes, 1701 Broadway St. The event fea-tures more than 50 booths with health and wellness resources.

BURNET — Hundreds, if not thou-sands, of rubber ducks take the plunge in Hamilton Creek Park to help area adults learn to read. The 2013 Rubber Ducky Race is the largest fundraiser for Literacy Highland Lakes, an organization that promotes literacy, English as a Second Language classes, citizenship test tutoring and General Educational Development preparation. This year’s race is April 13 in Hamilton Park, located on West Jackson Street. The race starts after the Burnet Bluebonnet Festival Grand Parade. The ducks should hit the water about 11:45 a.m. People can “sponsor” a duck for $5 each or $20 for a “Quack Pack” of five. The sponsor could win a $300 gift card from Salem’s Jewelry for first place; a $200 gift card from Custom Creations and Interiors for second place; or a $100 gift card from Ford &

Crew Home and Hardware (formerly Marble Falls Ace Hardware). The spon-sor doesn’t need to be present to win. Duck sponsorships are available the day of the event or by contacting Literacy Highland Lakes at (512) 756-7337. People can also purchase the

duck tickets at the Marble Falls/Lake LBJ Chamber of Commerce, 916 Second St. in Marble Falls; the Burnet Chamber of Commerce, 229 S. Pierce in Burnet; and the Kingsland/Lake LBJ Chamber of Commerce, 2743 RR 1431 in Kingsland.

one of the top fiddle contests in Texas.” The purpose behind the festival, Caballero said, was not only to show-case the fiddlers but expose people to this unique style of play. “Texas fiddle is recognized as a style all its own,” he said. Fletcher agreed. “This is not some hokey music,” she said. “You’ll hear some top-notch players. This is a style of music that brings with it a tradition of more than 100 years. Some of it is jazz-inspired, while other parts you can hear the origi-nal tunes that people brought over from Ireland. It’s groovy, blends some jazz, but it’s its own style.” While Fletcher still teaches and practices classical violin and relishes the form, she pointed out the two styles share some similarities, including how their creators might have envisioned them being performed. “As a classical musician, I was really never given any choices,” she said. “Classical music is performed in a rigid style. But when classical music was being written, Beethoven wasn’t considered classical. He was way out there. And Bach, his music was all loosely improvised. It was only after somebody wrote it down that his music was played so formally.” She sees the same spirit Bach and Beethoven infused into their music in Texas fiddlers when they place the fid-dle under their chin and pick up the bow with their other hand. “There’s a freedom of music with the fiddler,” Fletcher said. “You really have to own what you’re doing. You play with your heart, not what’s on the page. If you play a good fiddle tune, people laugh and smile after it.” Festivals help keep the Texas style alive because it connects experienced fiddlers with new ones or potential ones. One of the things that separates Texas fiddling, and fiddling in general, from other forms of music is how it’s passed on. “It’s a handed-down tradition,” Fletcher said. “You can’t get it from a book. You have to find somebody to share it with you.” Mears shared it with Fletcher. Now she tries to share the form with as many people as she can. Even if you’re not a fiddler, don’t let that stop you from attending the Llano Fiddle Festival. “Be prepared to be blown away,” Fletcher said. “Bring a picnic lunch and make a day of it, because once you are there, you’re not going to want to leave.” For more information and a com-plete schedule, go to www.llanofiddle-contest.com.

Pick your own fruit at Sweet Berry Farm101 FUN THINGS TO DO IN THE HIGHLAND LAKES

BY SUZANNE FREEMANPicayune Staff

MARBLE FALLS — If you go home with hard, green berries from Sweet Berry Farm, then it’s nobody’s fault but your own. You do the picking, say owners Dan and Gretchen Copeland, so it’s up to you to find the best berries. And there’s plenty from which to choose. The Copelands have at least 80,000 strawberry plants growing on five acres along with two acres of black-berries and six acres of peaches. The

farm is located on FM 1980 just west of Marble Falls off RR 1431. Picking your own fruit is not all you can do at Sweet Berry Farm. You can get lost in a Texas-shaped maze of maize, test your jumping skills on the Berry Bounce or ride the barrel train around colorfully decorated, round bales of hay. You never know what else you might find, Dan says, because Gretchen is always thinking up new ways to keep children entertained. About 5,000 school kids visit during each of the farm’s two main seasons: fall and spring.

Dan is the son of “Brother Max” Copeland, a retired pastor of First Baptist Church of Marble Falls, who also works on the family farm. Dan’s mother, Glenna Copeland, makes the berry jam they sell. “The farm could not run without those two,” Dan says of his parents. “They are the heart and soul of this place.” Brother Max is the first person you’ll see when you visit Sweet Berry Farm. He hands you your picking bas-ket and points you in the right direc-tion. Dan has the inside scoop on how to get the best berries. “Walk to the end of the row and then work your way back to the store,” Dan says. “That’s where you’ll find the best berries.” Sweet Berry Farm is open 8:30 a.m.-5:30 p.m. Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays and 1-5 p.m. Sundays.
