The best newspaper money can’t buy — still FREE after all these yearsThe PicayuneBLAST FROM
AREA’S PAST
BY DANIEL CLIFTONPicayune Editor
BURNET — Often in today’s hustle and bustle, history only makes an appearance during a high school class or a Hollywood biopic. But people can discover how history still lives and remains relevant, even among modern technology such as cell phones, Skype and Instagram, with a trip into the past during Fort Croghan Day on Oct. 12.

The event returns Oct. 12 at the Fort Croghan Museum, 703 Buchanan Drive (Texas 29 West) in Burnet, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free, but donations are welcomed. COURTESY PHOTO
Burnet’s Fort Croghan comes to life for its annual history celebration Oct. 12
The event is 9 a.m.-5 p.m. at the fort, 703 Buchanan Drive (Texas 29 West.) Admission is free, but donations are welcomed. “I’ve always enjoyed history, so the fort and the history behind it is interesting to me already,” said Buddy Inman, president of the Burnet County Heritage Society. “But on Fort Croghan Day, peo-ple can actually experience what pioneers to this
area — and around Texas — faced day to day.” Fort Croghan gave birth to the community, and maybe even Burnet County. Inman explained the government christened the structure Fort Croghan in 1849. But, before becoming a feder-al fort and Company A of the Second Dragoon

KINGSLAND — If the idea of taking down a mammoth appeals to you, a trip to the Llano Uplift Archeological Society’s Archaeology Fair on Oct. 12 should help you fine tune your atlatl skills. Now even if you manage to master the ancient hunting tool, you probably shouldn’t set off after a mammoth with one. For one thing, the giant beast is extinct. Still, learning to use an atlatl isn’t something you get to do every day, so why not give it a try. Oh, yeah, what is an atlatl? “Well, it’s a hand-held tool early humans used to throw spears farther and with more energy,” said Linda Weatherford, president of the society. “We’ll have a hay bale out there, and people can learn how to use an atlatl.” The fair is 1-5 p.m. at the Nightengale Archaeological Center, 201 Circle Drive in Kingsland. The center is located in the Twin Isles community about 9.3 miles west of Marble Falls and 3.1 miles east of Kingsland on RR 1431. Turn into the Twin Isle com-munity on CR 126 and follow it to Circle Drive. The Lower Colorado River Authority center offers residents a

After 55 years in the ministry, ‘Brother Max’ still leads with love, compassion and wisdom
BY DANIEL CLIFTONPicayune Editor
MARBLE FALLS — Throughout his life, the Rev. Max Copeland faced many challenges and, even, tragedies. Yet the man known simply as “Brother Max” never wavered in his faith, even when the church he came to lead burned down a few years after he arrived or his own health faltered. “Faith has been easy for me,” Copeland said.
“I know other people struggled in their faith. But I just find it easy to believe in God and his purpose.” A simple man of faith and a storytelling preacher are easy ways to describe Copeland, who celebrates 55 years in the ministry this year. But for the Highland Lakes, Copeland and his wife, Glenna, mean much more. The two served, and continue to serve, the community that embraced them since their arrival in 1958
The Rev. Max Copeland celebrates 55 years in ministry this year. On Oct. 12, First Baptist Church of Marble Falls, 501 12th St., is holding a reception to honor Copeland and his wife, Glenna, for their dedication and service to the church and the community. The celebration is 5 p.m. The recognition ties in with the church’s 125th anniversary. STAFF PHOTO BY DANIEL CLIFTON

SUNRISE BEACH — The women of the Bluebonnet Chorale want to lift you up with song this fall and the coming Christmas season. The chorus is rehearsing for the fall shows with the Christmas ones not far behind. “We’re pretty busy, but we’re always willing to entertain a group that enjoys music and will get into our show,” said Mary Williams, the cho-rale’s director. The Bluebonnet Chorale is accept-ing requests to perform during the 2013-2014 season. The season typi-cally runs September through the end of May. One of the biggest times of the year is the Christmas season. “We have a complete Christmas program,” Williams said. “Some of it’s secular songs, but we have religious ones as well.” The Bluebonnet Chorale current-ly has about 45 active members, but Williams said there are probably anoth-er 15 women who don’t regularly per-form but enjoy being connected with the group. And while music is what formed the group, the women find more than singing keeps them together. “We’re just one big sisterhood,” Williams said with a laugh. The Bluebonnet Chorale formed about 16 years ago when a small group of women began singing together. Over the years, more women joined after seeing how much fun they could have performing. While there are some members who have Broadway expe-
rience, Williams said there are others who simply learn songs and music by ear. “It’s a great group of women who just love to sing,” she said. The chorale sings in four parts: first and second alto and first and second soprano. The groups repertoire spans a variety of styles and genres. The Bluebonnet Chorale enjoys per-forming for groups and organizations. “We like to sing for groups who will set aside time during their meetings to listen to us,” Williams said. “We per-form for assisted living and retirement centers. There are some groups who will sing along with us and get into the performance. And we really enjoy that.” The group doesn’t charge for their performances but does accept dona-tions, which go toward purchasing new music. Williams said the performances typically last 25-35 minutes but can be adapted to fit the organization’s sched-ule. Mostly, members of the Bluebonnet Chorale want to spread an uplifting message through music. Williams understands the benefit of a song or a piece of music at just the right time. “Whenever I have a bad day and go to practice in the evening, the music and singing just changes my day altogeth-er,” she said. “Music definitely lifts my spirit.” Email Williams at [email protected] for more information about the chorale or to schedule a performance.
The Bluebonnet Chorale is gearing up for its 2013-2014 performance sea-son. Fall and Christmas keeps the group busy, but the members entertain through May. The chorale is accepting requests for performances from groups and organizations. Several members, including Shirley Naylor (left), Martha McCutchan, Linda Boatman, Pat King and Willetta House, recently rehearsed for the new season. COURTESY PHOTO

MARBLE FALLS — After a 51-34 loss to Class 4A Division II defending state champion Cedar Park on Oct. 4, Marble Falls High School head football coach Todd Dodge summed up the rest of the season. “We need to be able to play four quarters like we played in two quar-ters (Oct. 4),” he said. “In (District 25-4A), we’re going against some good people. We need to come to expect to get in the hunt. This team is learning what we’re talking about.” Marble Falls outscored Cedar Park 34-14 in the second half. The Mustangs (2-3 overall, 0-1) get back to the playoff hunt against Leander Rouse at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 11 at Mustang Stadium, 2101 Mustang Drive, for their homecoming game. “We have a lot more momentum going into Week 2 of district than we did going into Week 1 of district,” Dodge said. “We have to use this momentum. I see looks of confidence and looks of hope and looks of expec-tation.” The Raiders (5-1, 2-0) enter this contest on a five-game winning streak with a pair of victories against district foes Leander (24-13) and Dripping Springs (38-21.) According to published reports,
Rouse starting junior quarterback Billy McCrary will miss four weeks because of a thumb injury. Senior Wesley Geisler took over for McCrary during the 24-13 win against Leander on Oct. 4. Senior receiver Zach Ayers has nine receptions for 141 yards and four touchdowns. Junior running back A.J. Badour has 66 rushes for 349 yards and two touchdowns, and junior running back Andre Alger has 63 carries for 331 yards and four touchdowns. “Alger is a good running back,” Dodge said. “They have two very efficient receivers and a big offensive line. We have to score and defend, and we have to use what happened (against Cedar Park) and start getting stops.” And that means not spotting an opponent a 37-0 halftime advantage, he said.
Still, Dodge said he was pleased with how the Mustangs fought through the final two quarters against the Timberwolves. Sophomore quarterback Brennen Wooten completed 29 of 44 passes for 372 yards and four touchdowns. Entering the game, Cedar Park had given up a total of five passing touch-downs all season. Senior running back Keith Jerome carried 23 times for 135 yards and a touchdown, and senior receiver Carson Bowen, who made his season debut after missing the past five weeks because of an injury, caught nine passes for 125 yards and a touchdown. “There are no moral victories,” Dodge said. “It’s still an ‘L’ in the win-loss column, but I told our play-ers it’s about the grind in district. We have to wrap ourselves in that and go get us some wins.” Perhaps the biggest challenge this week is coming from the homecom-ing festivities. Dodge said it’s import-ant his players remember their role in homecoming. “It’s not for the football team,” he said. “It’s for everyone in school and the ones coming back. That’s why it’s called homecoming. We need to focus in and pay a bunch of attention. We need to do the best we can in the game.”

Re-energized after bye week, Burnet begins district play at Brownwood
BY JENNIFER FIERROPicayune Staff
BURNET — It won’t be the first time Burnet High School head foot-ball coach Kurt Jones runs on the field at Brownwood’s Gordon Wood Stadium on Oct. 11. But it will be the first time he is the head coach of the opposing team. Two decades ago, Jones played football at Brownwood High School, where he was recruited by Abilene Christian University and Bob Shipley, a former assistant coach at the college. When Shipley came to Burnet in 2002, he brought Jones with him as an assistant coach. Jones s a id Gordon Wood Stadium, named after the coach who guided Brownwood to seven state titles, has had some changes in the past 20 years such as adding natural grass and a better field house. But one thing that hasn’t changed is opposing teams usually get the Lions’ best, he said, so the Bulldogs will have to play their toughest to snag a win on the road to begin District 8-3A. “That’s where all of our focus is. That’s what we know we need to go do,” he said. “Each week is critical. It would be big for us to go there and come away with a victory.” Brownwood is led by senior quar-terback Chris Keesee, who has com-pleted 122 of 173 passes for 1,425 yards, nine touchdowns and two
interceptions. Senior running back Braxton Kilgo has 46 rushes for 228 yards and four touchdowns. One key area to watch is in the trenches, Jones said. “I think we really need our offen-sive and defensive lines to win the physical battles,” he said. “We need to be able to run the ball when we need to control the clock and the game. Our defensive line has to do a good job of not getting moved and pressure the quarterback. We have to challenge ourselves to win those battles.” Burnet senior quarterback Derek Kiser has completed 115 passes for 1,554 yards and 17 touchdowns without an interception. Senior run-ning back Trenton Hafley has rushed 85 times for 530 yards and six touch-downs, while senior receiver Blayne Parisher has caught 27 passes for 455 yards and 17 touchdowns. Both teams will be rested for the contest after taking a district-wide bye last week. The Bulldogs had
three after-school practices and began installing the game plan, Jones said. “We felt like we got a lot of work in, and it doesn’t hurt that we got rested,” he said. The first-string offense faced the first-string defense throughout the week, he added, noting the play-ers should be better prepared for Brownwood. “We re-evaluated stuff over the weekend,” he said. “There could be a little bit of an addition here and there. But for the most part, it’s all in.” In addition, the rest helped with some bumps and bruises, though Jones said some players didn’t get completely healed and are expected to be out for several weeks such as junior receiver Cory Campbell. “We’ll keep an eye on a few guys this week,” he said.

Race to postseason for Faith begins with Holy TrinityBY JENNIFER FIERRO
Picayune Staff
MARBLE FALLS — An unde-feated pre-district record shows the Faith Academy football team has plenty of talent and the skills to make
the playoffs. But the Flames’ 6-0 record won’t help them if they don’t win at least two of their three Division III, District 4 games. And that race begins at Temple Holy Trinity, 6608 W. Adams Ave. in
Temple, at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 11. Holy Trinity is led by Mark Mata and David Weisbrunch. The team uti-lizes a run-oriented offensive scheme, Roberts said. “The kids know the district is clos-er, it’s there in front of us,” he said. “There are two playoff spots. We still have the possibility of a wild card. That’s our ace in the hole.” The Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools awards points to teams based on their opponents and the results of each game. “We have the most wild-card points of any TAPPS school,” Roberts said. “We have some margin for error. But we want to host a playoff game. To do that, we need to win the district.” The Flames enter the district race fresh off a 49-8 victory against St. Gerard of San Antonio. Roberts said

St. Gerard featured taller and fast-er players than what his team had encountered throughout the season. But the key to the win was the Flames’ ability to eliminate big plays and not allow the Royals to build momentum. Faith led 35-0 at the half thanks to two touchdown runs by junior Royale Brown and a pair of touchdowns from junior Hanner Shipley on a one-yard run and a 10-yard reception from senior quarterback Austin Ellis. Senior defensive end Matt Manley intercept-ed a pass and ran it back 13 yards for a score. As a team, Faith rushed for 368 yards on 35 carries led by junior run-ning back Royale Brown’s nine carries for 186 yards and two touchdowns. Freshman Dalton Mayberry had 13 carries for 94 yards and a touchdown. Defensively, senior Heston Hand

had eight total tackles, while sopho-more Jacob Metcalf had six. Roberts said the Flames worked on fundamentals leading up to the con-test. He believes that propelled them to victory. “That was something we had not been able to do a whole lot of,” he said. “We spent more time on the men-tal part. That lets us work on blocking and tackling, and it helped immensely. Now it’s time to slap it together.”

FROM STAFF REPORTS
MARBLE FALLS — Faith Academy is moving up to Class 3A of the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools starting with the 2014-2015 school year. Faith Academy athletic director Jessie Crow announced the results of the TAPPS realignment Oct. 2. The Faith football team faces some familiar teams in the realigned Division III District 3. The Flames will remain in the same district as Texas School for the Deaf, Temple Holy Trinity and Temple Central
Texas Christian. They already have beaten Schertz John Paul II twice in two years, most recently 28-21 on Sept. 27, and defeated San Antonio St. Gerard 49-8 on Oct. 4. They lost to Halletsville Sacred Heart 38-12 in the 2012 playoffs. Shiner St. Paul, whom the Flames have never faced in foot-ball, rounds out the new district. Currently, the Flames play in Division III District 4 and have three district contests. TAPPS decides the football dis-tricts based on the average numbers of the boys’ enrollment from September 2012, January 2012 and September
2013. Faith Academy has an aver-age number of 65 boys. Division III includes 33 teams, which includes Classes 1A, 2A and 3A, though the Flames won’t face 1A or 2A teams in the postseason. The Flames basketball teams also has a new district, District 4-3A. Faith will face Texas School for the Deaf, San Juan Diego, Brentwood Christian, Round Rock Christian, Concordia High School and Temple Central Texas Christian. Faith and CTC have been in out of the same district for almost a decade.

LLANO — History will be made Oct. 11 when the Llano High School football team faces Liberty Hill in the Panthers’ new stadium. Kickoff is 7:30 p.m. on the Liberty Hill High School campus, 13125 Texas 29 in Liberty Hill It will be the first district contest played in the new facility, and the Yellow Jackets (2-3) have plenty for which to play. At the top of the list is getting a road win to snap a two-game losing skid. But i t won’t be easy. The Panthers (4-1) are on a four-game winning streak. Their only loss was to Giddings, 21-20, to begin the sea-son. Liberty Hill is led by senior quarterback Tyler Vickers, who has rushed 26 times for 253 yards and two touchdowns. He operates the Slot-T offense, a run-oriented scheme that uses misdirection and capitalizes on the defense’s confu-sion. Senior running back Nick Barrios has 78 rushes for 515 yards and six touchdowns, senior running back Will Fromme has 51 carries for 310 yards and four touchdowns and junior running back Hunter Lindsay has 58 rushes for 304 yards and two touchdowns for the Panthers In all, the Panthers average 349 rushing yards per game. “They’re a very solid club, like always,” Llano head coach Craig Slaughter said. “We must limit the big play. We must tackle very well. We must score when we get the opportunity.” Both squads enter the contest after taking a district-wide bye, which was agreed upon by the coaches. Llano used the time to prac-tice fundamentals. Slaughter said his players “had a great attitude” throughout the week. Llano coaches also used the time to formulate a game plan for Liberty Hill and Lampasas, the Oct. 18 opponent, because both teams’ offensive schemes are the same, Slaughter said.

“I felt very good about our defense going into the off-week,” he said. “I still like where they are at. We must have a great tackling week this week.” Junior quarterback Holden Simpson and senior quarterback Tyler Stiles led the Llano offense during the bye week, Slaughter said. Starting senior quarterback Layton Rabb continues to recover from emergency surgery. “Holden and Tyler got great work in,” Slaughter said. “They have handled it the last four weeks. No new steps, just reps and under-standing defenses.” He added Rabb is getting closer to perhaps being able to play, but he hasn’t put on pads or run more than 50 percent while his teammates work out. “There’s still lots of progress to be made,” he said.

FINANCIAL FOCUS: Harvest Season Offers Lessons to Investors
It’s harvest time again. And while you may not work in agriculture, you can learn a lot from those who do — especially in your role as an investor.For example, just as farmers maximize the growth of their crops through fertilizer and irrigation, you can give your portfolio the opportunity to grow
by “feeding” it the right mix of investments.And, just as farmers await the results of their work, you, too, need patience as you wait for long-term results from your investments.Finally, farmers help control risk by planting a variety of crops. By putting some drought-resistant crops in the ground, they won’t face ruin when the rains don’t fall. As an investor, you could sustain
large losses if you only owned one type of financial asset, and that asset class dropped sharply. But spreading your dollars among an array of investments may help reduce the effects of volatility on your portfolio.Think about how farmers meet their challenges — and put this knowledge to work when you invest.

AUSTIN — The Marble Falls Middle School eighth-grade B foot-
ball team got a huge play from quar-terback Keagan Deering during a 14-6 win against O’Henry Middle School on Oct. 1. Deering scored a 98-yard touch-down on a quarterback sneak at House Park Stadium late in the fourth quarter. It is believed to be one of the longest run plays in the 73-year his-tory of the facility. The Marble Falls defense had forced a turnover on downs moments earlier to set up Deering’s run. Until that point in the season, Deering had taken every snap from the shotgun. So when the coaches called for him to get under center for the first time, the Mustang was a little nervous. “Coaches said to just take the snap, duck my head and run hard,” Deering said. “They said that if I got in the open, I was faster than they were and I should just keep running.” Deering stepped under center and saw the O’Henry middle line-backer sliding to his left before the snap, leaving no one in the middle of the field beyond the defensive line. Deering handled the snap with no problem and shot through the gap
to his left. And then it was off to the races. Deering shed a few tacklers before reaching midfield and had opened up a 5-yard gap between him-self and the nearest defender as he sprinted down the home sideline. But there was one defender in hot pur-suit, who was closing the 5-yard gap. He took a desperate leap from the 10-yard line, clipping Deering’s heels who stumbled but righted himself as he crossed the goal line. “I thought back to my flag football days,”Keegan said, “and I remem-bered getting caught from behind on long runs every time I would turn around and look back. So I didn’t look back, I just ran as fast as I could.”
OFFENSIVE STANDOUTS: (select-ed by coaches) Zane Vincent (touch-down), Keagan Deering (touchdown) and Justin Milles (2-point conver-sion)
DEFENSIVE STANDOUTS: (selected by coaches) Chase Brown (2 intercep-tions), Jesse Garrison (interception), JoJo Wooten (tipped ball to cause interception), Luis Banda (2 sacks, fumble recovery), Carlos Silva (sack, fumble recovery) and Jevon Collins (several tackles for loss)

taking up residence, the location served as a waypoint for the Texas Rangers as early as 1847. At that time, it was called McCulloch’s Station. With the presence of the Texas Rangers, and later the U.S. Army, early pioneers began settling near Fort Croghan. “Burnet really grew up around the fort,” Inman said. “It’s possi-ble that, had it not been for Fort Croghan, Burnet may not have been established.” A few years after Fort Croghan opened, the state recognized a new county: Burnet County. The fed-eral government abandoned the fort in 1853 because authorities believed the population was large enough and capable enough to hold off Native American incursions. But the fort’s role in history wasn’t finished. During the Civil War, members of the Confederate Army used the fort to train soldiers and store gun powder, Inman said. “There are two original build-ings still on the grounds, and one of them is the powder house,” he said. “That’s where the soldiers stored the powder they made over in Longhorn Cavern.” On Fort Croghan Day, the Burnet County Heritage Society
is bringing in a variety of re-enactors and living history groups. “They’ll be demonstrating and giving exhibitions portraying people going about their daily lives during the early settlements,” Inman said. While years have passed since the establishment of Fort Croghan and the early settlements, Inman said the stories of the soldiers and the pioneers remain relevant.
“I think it’s important to under-stand the hardships and struggles of our ancestors,” he said. “If it hadn’t been for them, we wouldn’t be here right now. I believe there’s a lot we can learn from their sacrifice and hard work.” Go to www.fortcroghan.org for more information.

when Copeland came to preach at First Baptist Church of Marble Falls. “Brother Max has been such a cornerstone of this community,” said the Rev. Ross Chander, pastor at First Baptist Church of Marble Falls. “He means so much to us and the entire community.” On Oct. 12, the church, located at 501 12th St., is hosting a reception at 5 p.m. to honor the Copelands for their commitment and service. The reception is part of the church’s 125th anniversary and also marks 55 years in the ministry for Copeland. Though he stepped down from the pulpit, Copeland remains the church’s pastor emeritus. Copeland, 83, smiled at the thought of the reception. “They have been honoring me and honoring me and saying goodbye to me so many times I’m embarrassed,” he said. “But I tell you what, I’m so glad they’re honoring my wife because she’s been by my side, and I wouldn’t be what I am without her.” The two married in 1957, a year before the couple moved to Marble Falls. Copeland first heard God’s call when he was 12 years old and living in West Texas. “When I was 16, I surrendered pub-licly and started preaching,” he said. Copeland began holding youth revivals. And, at 18 and a student at Baylor University, Copeland was driving to Roberts Baptist Church in Haskell County on weekends to preach. He led the church for more than four years before taking a call at a Baptist church in Briggs, located in northeast Burnet County. In 1958, Copeland and Glenna accepted the call to First Baptist Church in Marble Falls. And there, the two set down roots. The young couple faced a tough challenge early in their stay in Marble Falls. About 5 a.m. on a March morn-ing, somebody saw smoke coming from the church in downtown Marble Falls. A fire spread through the build-ing, burning it to the ground. The Sunday after the fire, the con-gregation gathered and Copeland stood before them. “I preached on the church still stands,” he said. “And away we went.” After the fire, the congregation held services and Sunday school up and down Main Street wherever the
members could find space. “I’ve never seen any more Christian courage because we were depending on each other and depending on the Lord,” Copeland said. Soon, the church found a few acres northeast of town. At the time, it was just a pasture with a trough. In a year’s time, the congregation built a new church building at the current site. “We just grew with the communi-ty. And I grew with the community,” Copeland said with a grin. “After all, I was just a country preacher — still am. Just don’t tell anybody.” While he might not have held any political office or been one of the town’s financiers, Copeland’s influ-ence moved through the community. But it wasn’t because of power that people typically think of when dis-cussing influence. Copeland’s ability came from another source: his love for God and people. “God just gave me this incredible gift for loving people,” he said. “I just enjoy ministering to them, still do.” From his early days in Marble Falls, Copeland became a fixture at youth sporting events. He wanted to encourage and support the youth. Even today, if he can make the games, people often see Copeland, complete with his red suspenders and red socks, sitting in the stands. For decades, stu-dents could just look up and see him there. Cord Woerner, who grew up in Marble Falls and returned to coach for several years, remembered Copeland’s presence meant some-thing not just for the student-athletes. “It’s not just an incredibly posi-tive thing for the youth, but it was such a positive thing for the coaches, parents and grandparents to see him there,” Woerner said. “And the thing is, he supported everybody. When he wasn’t at a game or at church, he was helping somebody or at the hospital staying with somebody.” The support didn’t waver even when things became difficult. “Even when things and people didn’t work out the way you hoped or should, he was one guy you knew would never give up on you,” Woerner said. Even after eight decades and more than 50 years in the ministry, Copeland still lives each day basking in God’s love. Most days during the fall and spring months, people can find him greeting visitors to Sweet
Berry Farm, which his son Dan Copeland and wife Gretchen own. People smile and call him Brother Max, even those who come from out of town to either pick strawberries or find the perfect pumpkin. Some of the people know him from years past. They bring their chil-dren or grandchildren to the farm and recall times Copeland helped them, baptized them or even married them. “Ministry is so special because you see lives change, you feel that love of the people, and you give that love
back,” Copeland said. “To see lives changed and have people walk up to you, even years later, and say, ‘I haven’t seen you in a long time and thanks so much for what you did,’ it really means so much to me. They talk about what I’ve done for the community, but I talk about what the community has done for me and my family. It’s been a real bless-ing for me and my family.” But many in the community feel Brother Max and Glenna have truly been a blessing to the community.
Copeland first started preaching at the age of 16FROM PAGE 1

look at how much-earlier residents in the area lived. Weatherford said the center and archaeologist have determined humans used this area up to 6,500 years ago. “They may have been here as early as 10,000 years ago, but we haven’t found actual evidence of that. But we do know people were using this area 6,500 years ago,” Weatherford said. During the fair, you can check out actual archaeological digs and excavations. “In this area, it’s probably the only place you can visit an actual archaeological site,” she said. “There will be a dig table set up so people can learn how archaeologists locate items and map what they find. There will be a lot of things people can try.” Along with the atlatl, you could try, what Weatherford calls, rabbit sticks. She described it as a hunting tool that looks somewhat like a boomerang — though it’s not — and was used to take down smaller game. Based on the name, early hunters probably got a few rabbits with the stick. “We’ll have a lot of activi-ties for kids,” she said. “And the adults can do them as well.” And if the burn ban remains off, you could learn how these early Highland Lakes (or what-ever they called it) residents made fires and processed food. “It’s a chance to come out, have fun and learn about the local history and archaeology,” Weatherford said. Go to www.texasluas.org for more information on the fair. You also can go to the society web-site or LCRA’s website at www.lcra.org to learn more about the Nightengale Archaeological Center.

MARBLE FALLS — While not everybody can foster a child or vol-unteer as a CASA advocate, just about everyone can run or walk to help youth across the Highland Lakes. And, you even can be a superhero in the process. The fifth annual CASA Superhero 5K offers people of all ages and abil-ities a chance to help youth who are in foster care after being removed from their homes by Child Protective Services. CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) of the Highland Lakes Area gives these youth voices in court proceedings as adults determine their futures. The CASA Superhero 5K slated for Oct. 19 in Johnson Park, 230 Ave. J South, still needs runners and sponsors. Registration is $30 through Oct. 18 and $35 on the day of the race. Registration for children 12 and younger is $10 and
students 13-18 is $15. “The state has cut so much funding (that) we have to raise money to keep this program alive,” said Liz Seabaugh, a race coordinator. “The work these advocates and the CASA staff do is incredible. The advocates, they know every part of their child’s life. And they make recommendations to the judge about what should happen.” CASA advocates enter a child’s life after CPS removes him or her from a home because of a number of rea-sons. The child often ends up in fos-ter care as the court, attorneys, parents and other adults try to sort out how to get the youth in a permanent home — whether reunited with parents or adopted, depending on the situation. Through the entire process, while many things change, the CASA advo-cate remains a constant in the child’s life. Dale Seabaugh, Liz’s husband and also a race coordinator, said CASA advocates are a crucial part of the puz-zle in helping the children put their
lives back together. “You just don’t know how much (advocates) make a difference in their kids’ lives,” he said. “The work they do is tremendous.” While some CASA staff are paid, the organization relies heavily on volunteers for its advocate corps. Still, it takes money to keep the doors open and services running. Ironically, though the state cuts funding to pro-grams such as CASA, it also requires local courts provide the services at some level. One easy way to help CASA and the children it serves is registering for the CASA Superhero 5K. Dale Seabaugh said superhero costumes are optional. “You don’t have to wear one, but it really does make it fun,” he said.Go to www.highlandlakescasa.com for registration and sponsorship informa-tion under the “How You Can Help” button at the top of the screen or call (325) 388-3440.

Coffee Talks on Texas outlaw frontier on Oct. 10 in Burnet BURNET — Author Peter R. Rose will discuss his book “The Reckoning: The Triumph of Order on the Texas Outlaw Frontier” on Oct. 10 at the Herman Brown Free Library. The free program is part of the Coffee Talks series at the library, 100 E. Washington. Refreshments will be served at 1:30 p.m. followed by the presentation at 2 p.m. Early arrival is
recommended. The geologist-turned-historian will talk about the Edwards Plateau and how its unique landscape made it possible for outlaw bands to prey on settlers without punishment, accord-ing to a library news release. In the wake of the Civil War, the region was racked with disor-der, including violence by vigilante bands, Indian raids, and a range war between Germans and Anglo-Celtic settlers, allowing outlaws to take advantage of the chaos, according to
the release. Hiding in the canyon lands around the forks of the Llano River in lawless Kimble County, families of criminals banded together to rob stagecoach-es, raid cattle in several counties and intimidate and murder settlers, according to the release. Rose draws on family histori-cal material, his work in geology and Texas Rangers files to create a well-documented, entertaining book. Books will be available at the pre-sentation for purchase and autograph.

SHERWOOD SHORES — The phrases — “eight bam,” “seven crak” or “two dots” — may sound foreign to some, but to people playing the ancient Chinese game of mahjong, those words are regular parts of their vocabulary. And the game itself continues to grab new enthusiasts in the Highland Lakes. “It’s growing. There are probably mahjong games going on everyday of the week in the area,” said Susan Stacey, a player who is coordinat-ing auction items for an upcoming fundraising tournament. “There’s 10 different groups. There’s one in Burnet. There’s two in Horseshoe Bay. There’s several groups in Marble Falls and one in Kingsland.” Games in the Highland Lakes have become lucrative for nonprofit organizations such as the Highland Lakes Service League with players dedicating “wall money” or proceeds to events and projects. Coming up Oct. 15, the second annual Upper Highland Lakes Nature Center Mahjong Tournament is being held at the Hidden Falls Golf Club restaurant, 220 Meadowlakes Drive. The tournament raised about $3,000 last year for the center. The proposed center at Reveille Peak Ranch will include a series of
Ancient Chinese game gains popularity, raises thousands for nature center
interpretive trails within a 1,300-acre ranch, west of Burnet off FM 2341 at 105 CR 114. “The nature center provides edu-cation for children and adults to learn about the native plants in the Hill Country,” Stacey said. “This will be seed money to start that.” Historians have debated the ori-gins of mahjong — some proclaiming it developed thousands of years ago in Confucius era China. Still, others believe the game orig-inated in the 1920s, gained popularity in Asian countries first and eventually migrated to the West. The game is played with a set of 144 tiles based on Chinese charac-ters and symbols, but it has the feel of a card game somewhat like “gin rummy.” Under the American version, a league annually sends out a “card” that outlines the hands competitors can use for the year. The national league which started with 32 members has grown to more than 350,000. There are three different suits numbered one to nine, which are called simple tiles comprised of bam-boo (bams), characters (myriads or craks) and circles (dots). In most variations of the game, players receive thirteen tiles, draw and discard tiles until they complete a hand using the fourteenth drawn tile to form four groups (melds) and a pair (head). Then the fun part starts. Players take turns stealing or “melding” tiles from one another, adding to their own scores and pur-
suing specific combinations with the ultimate goal of obtaining a “mahj” (pronounced modge). “There are some people that like it better than bridge because you don’t have partners, so you don’t have any-body getting mad at you for playing the wrong card,” player Carol Parker said. The “addictive” nature of the game has planted a seed of support for not only fundraising activities but has nurtured a few new groups of common interest. In Marble Falls, a mahjong club meets every Monday from 12:30 to 2 p.m. on Mondays at the Faith House at St. Andrew Presbyterian Church, 201 RR 1431 in Marble Falls. In Horseshoe Bay, the Yacht Club, 1009 Horseshoe Bay Blvd., spon-sors a Mahjong Play Day on the last Thursday of each month which starts with an early lesson at 10:30 a.m. Others can join in on an open mah-jong play day on Tuesdays at Slick Rock Club House, 1306 Hi Stirrup Drive. Members of the organized groups often host private mahjong parties. “We often get lost in our game because we’re having too much fun,” Parker said. “It’s the sisterhood that we get.” To find out more about partici-pating in upcoming tournaments or to donate auction items to the Oct. 15 fundraiser, call (512) 755-5122 or (830) 798-8464.

MARBLE FALLS — Though the Highland Lakes Master Gardeners community garden is only in its third year, the cornucopia of fresh vegetables recently earned international acclaim. “This is so exciting,” said Karen Wilkens, a Highland Lakes Master Gardeners member. “We’ve taken this little garden, and, I think, not only made an impact on our local community but showed how other people could do the same thing.” The International Master Gardeners Association awarded The Helping Center garden second place in the Search for Excellence for 2012. The garden, located on six plots adjacent to the food pantry, earned the honor in the Community Service category. About three years ago, Wilkens and fellow Master Gardeners Carol Kowing and Pete Smith approached The Helping Center board about turning a plot of land adjacent to the facility, located at 1315 Broadway St., into a garden. The idea was to donate any fresh produce to The Helping Center, where the clients could pick it up for free. One of the problems many food pantries grapple with is the lack of fresh produce. A garden next to The Helping Center would help alleviate part of that issue. “The Helping Center board gave us
the OK, so we took the idea back to the (Highland Lakes Master Gardeners), and they thought it was great,” Wilkens said. “While it started as a garden to provide food for The Helping Center, its role has really expanded to become educational as well.” In the first year, the garden produced about 1,400 pounds of fresh vegetables for The Helping Center. The next year, volunteers harvested 2,900 pounds of produce. This year, the gardeners have already collected 3,600 pounds of veg-etables, and the growing season isn’t over yet. “We still have sweet potatoes and some other things left,” Wilkens said. “I suspect we’ll be at the two-ton mark when the season is done.” Beyond growing produce for The Helping Center, the Highland Lakes Master Gardners use the garden as a teaching tool for the community. Each year, the gardeners host learning events that in the past included key-hole gar-dening. This unique gardening method utilizes a circular form built up, using almost any type of material, to about waist height. In the middle, the builder leaves a circular gap that drops down into the project where compost mate-rial goes while garden soil is poured in around it. The gardener puts the plants in the key-hole garden. The plants continu-ously draw nutrients from the compost,
allowing for a thriving garden. Because of its construction, this type of garden-ing reduces the amount of water need-ed to produce vegetables, making it an asset in semiarid and arid climates. “We try to do at least one of those programs each year,” Wilkens said.But the educational aspect isn’t lim-ited to those annual events. Anybody interested in learning about gardening can volunteer at The Helping Center garden, and the Master Gardeners will share the techniques and vegetable and plant varieties that work best in the area. “We’ve experimented with and tried different varieties (of plants), so we can show people what works best in this area,” Wilkens said. “We’re always looking for more volunteers. And we’re always glad to help people get started in gardening.”One of the requirements of the commu-nity service award was that the project not only had to help the community but that it could be replicated. One of the hopes local organizers have is other communities or groups see the impact The Helping Center garden makes and transplants the concept in their area. “We know there is one that jumped off from us in the Georgetown area,” Wilkens said. “We’re hoping and pray-ing it will spread.” Call Wilkens at (512) 798-3955 for more information or to get involved in the garden.
Members of the Highland Lakes Master Gardeners celebrate the recent award from the International Master Gardeners Association honoring the Marble Falls Helping Center garden for community service. The garden, which produces fresh vegetables for the local food pantry, earned second in the community service category. Highland Lakes Master Gardeners enjoying the honor include M.J. Hansen (back row, left), Molly Dutch, Ben Kowing, Bob Morley, Karen Wilkens, Paula Montandon, Pete Smith (front row, left), Carol Kowing, Carolyn Kennedy and Beth Mortenson. COURTESY PHOTO

MARBLE FALLS — Space comes down to earth Oct. 11-12 in Marble Falls for the Hill Country Space Expo. Jim Wreyford, president of the Wreyford Family Foundation, said the expo is a means to get children interested in math and science. “Unlike where it’s behind glass, all but about 2 percent of the stuff is out and about (at the expo),” Wreyford said. “You can feel it: gloves, a space-suit and shuttle tile.” Students from area schools are scheduled to visit Oct 11. The expo opens to the public Oct. 12 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and is free to attend. It will be at the Boys and Girls Club of the Highland Lakes, 1701 Broadway St. in Marble Falls. Wreyford said astronaut Richard Gordon, from the Gemini 11 and Apollo 12 missions, will be attending the expo. A discussion panel begins at 2 p.m. Oct. 12 with Gordon and Apollo 13 mission controllers Chuck Dietrich, Jerry Bostick, Jim Bigham and Joe
DeAtkine. Wreyford said the discussion panel will be open to questions from the public. “Other than how they go to the bathroom,” Wreyford said with a laugh. “It’s always asked, and it always gets old.” The expo will also feature flight simulation stations that give people the opportunity to experience landing a shuttle and docking a space ship. Students from the Marble Falls High School aeroscience program will exhibit their rocket, too. Kids can build rubberband-pow-ered rockets and other models. Demonstrations stations also will show ultrasonic and infrared object sensing. Much of the expo revolves around giving attendees a taste of what NASA astronauts, mission controllers and scientists do on a daily basis, whether in space or on ground. “We want to show off a little bit of the stuff they did and impart some of that to the kids,” Wreyford said. “That’s the whole idea, to get them interested in that curriculum.”

MARBLE FALLS — There’s noth-ing like cooking over an open fire that comforts the soul. And now participants of the Roundup for Hope Chuckwagon Cookoff — Music Jamboree will stoke their fires to help provide solace for struggling families in need of emo-tional, trauma and minor medical care.

LLANO — The state of the times — good or bad — is often reflected in the fashion of the day. “Depending on the economy at the time, that determined how much material (clothing makers) put into a skirt or how wide even a man’s tie would be,” said Virginia Walker, co-owner with her husband, Jack, of Sandstone Street Bed and Breakfest. “You can really learn a great deal about the times based on the fashion.” And people can get a first-hand look at the Victorian era during Sandstone Street’s “Celebrate Llano’s Fashion Heritage” at 2 p.m. Oct. 13. The event includes an English after-noon tea and a Victorian fashion show. Walker is hosting the show and the tea in the garden of the bed-and-breakfast, 508 E. Sandstone. Along with select teas, attendees can enjoy a Victorian fashion show by J’Nean Henderson, the “Texas Victorian Lady.” “She specializes in doing living
history presentations through fash-ion,” Walker said. “She’ll have some original Victorian dresses as well as some reproductions. But everything she brings is historically accurate.” And it won’t just be women’s wear. Henderson is bringing samples of the men’s clothing favored during the Victorian age. This is the first time Walker has hosted an event such as this, though she’s quit adept at holding traditional tea parties. “Doing tea parties is kind of a hobby of mine,” she said. “And since buying the bed-and-breakfast, this is a wonderful place to hold them. I just thought this show would really be something different.” The Sandstone Street event falls in line with many of the historical activities occurring around Llano during October. Llano Heritage Day is Oct. 19, and the Llano River Chuck Wagon Cook-off is Oct. 18-20. “So October is almost our histo-ry, or heritage, month here in Llano,” Walker said. While many Texans can relate to chuck wagons and stagecoach rides, Walker said fashion helps bring his-
tory to life and often gives insight into what people were experiencing during a certain era. “Fashion is a big part of how we live and lived,” she said. “And, who doesn’t like the Victorian-age fash-ion — the women and those beautiful dresses.” Tickets for the event are $40 for adults and $20 for children 12 and younger. Part of the proceeds benefits the Llano Food Pantry. Advanced reservations are required by calling (325) 423-2581. Along with tea, refreshments such as scones and little sandwiches will be served. While people can park near the bed-and-breakfast but for an addi-tional $7, they can park near the Llano County Courthouse and enjoy a horse-and-carriage ride to the event. There also will be live classical music performed by Keenan Fletcher & Company. “While people don’t have to dress up for the event, we really do encour-age it,” Walker said. “But if you don’t have something, just come in your Sunday best.”
Bed-and-breakfast offers glimpse into the past with Victorian fashion show

LLANO — For many, life in the Hill Country revolves around hunting, fishing and family. So to reach out to people in Llano and the Highland Lakes, area churches have come together to put on the Llano Outdoor Expo on Oct. 11-13. “Who doesn’t hunt and fish around here? That’s why we chose this type of event,” said the Rev. Rye Taylor of Cherokee Baptist Church. “Everybody has something they can enjoy at this event.” Churches from Llano, San Saba and Cherokee are putting on the event at Llano Events Center and Rodeo Arena, 2200 RR 152 in Llano. Admission is free for the Oct. 12-13 events at the arena. “It’s important for people to see that community churches can work togeth-er,” Taylor said. The Outdoor Expo gets started Oct. 11 for area women at 6:30 p.m. at the Lutie Watkins United Methodist
Church, 800 Wright St. in Llano. The women’s dinner features speaker Edwina Patterson, an author who also has a syndicated radio ministry. Tickets are $10. The main day is Oct. 12 and lasts from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Free drinks and hot dogs are avail-able throughout the day, along with activities like a dunk tank, bounce houses, hunting displays, and live music. The Rev. Danny Meegan of Pittsburgh Avenue Baptist Church said people can bring their deer mounts to display all day Saturday. “Quite a few taxidermists are bring-ing stuff,” Meegan said. “Everybody’s got them and has at least one things stuck to the wall and nobody gets to see it.” Scheduled events include “The Amazing Kingdom Dogs,” at 10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m., which features Hank Hough’s dogs putting on an obe-dience display. Jason Mann, an experienced out-doorsman, shares his outdoor adventures and climbing experiences at 11:30 a.m. Snake expert Fred Reyna gives a
rattlesnake demonstration at 12:30 p.m. Following Reyna is a speaker who talks about everything you want to know about hunting white-tailed deer. Also at the expo will be the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department with exotic game tasting and an Operation Game Thief trailer. On Oct. 12, there is a men’s din-ner at 6 p.m. at First Baptist Church of Llano, 107 W. Luce St. in Llano, featuring speaker Jay Lowder. Tickets are $10. Lowder has been featured on numerous TV shows and in countless stories in various media outlets. He will speak again at 10 a.m. Oct. 13 at the rodeo grounds for a combined worship service open to the public. “We’re letting folks know that area churches care about them and more importantly Jesus cares about them,” Taylor said. “And we’re excited about the whole thing.” For updates and information on the expo, visit www.facebook.com/LlanoOutdoorExpo.

ADOPT ME!Brody is a wonderful, sweet dog that was found in the middle of a country road. Since he is friendly, house-trained, and was wearing a collar, we’re pretty sure he was dumped. Since coming to our shelter, Brody has shone us he gets along with both people and other dogs. Now this 3-year-old gentle boy just needs a loving home to call his own. For more, call the Highland Lakes Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals at (830) 693-0569 or visit www.highlandlakess-pca.org to see other adoptable pets. COURTESY PHOTO

MARBLE FALLS — While time passes on, good memories and friends remain. And that’s part of the reason for the annual Marble Falls Ex-Students
Homecoming Reunion on Oct. 12 at Marble Falls High School. “It’s just a great time to get togeth-er, see people you may not have seen in several years and visit,” organizer Karen Lacy said. “For some, this is the only time they get to see each other.”
The event is 10 a.m.-2 p.m. (though if it goes longer, nobody will mind) in the cafeteria at the high school, 2101 Mustang Drive. Early arrivals can enjoy cookies and coffee as they gather around tables and share stories or just get caught up. Lunch is a fully catered barbecue meal prepared by Dwayne Schuessler, class of 1966. The meal includes brisket, chicken, sausage and all the traditional sides. Tickets for the meal are $15 each.While food helps bring people togeth-er, the reason for the reunion goes well beyond dining. “This was something Madolyn Frasier started years ago as way to get the classes together,” Lacy said. Frasier, often referred to as “the Marble Falls historian,” tirelessly worked to celebrate the community’s
history until her passing in 2012. She also focused on the people who made up Marble Falls including the high school classes of years past. “This was also a way to keep in touch,” Lacy said. “Not all the class-es get together or hold their own reunions. Plus, there were a lot of small classes who were close to the classes above and below them, and not just the small classes. This is an opportunity for everybody to get together.” Rose Metzler, class of 1968, agreed. “This is a chance to see people you only see at this homecoming,” she said. One of her sisters drives into town each year for the event. “It does bring people from a bunch of the classes in, many of them from some
of the older graduating classes.” Each year, the ex-student associ-ation recognizes certain graduating classes during the homecoming. This year, it will honor classes with grad-uation years ending with “3.” “I think there’s a good bit coming from the class of 1953,” Lacy said. People can purchase tickets early or pay at the door. Lacy would like people planning to attend to contact her so organizers can prepare enough food. Checks for tickets should be made payable to Marble Falls Ex-Students Association and can be mailed to P.O. Box 97, Spicewood, TX 78669. For more information, call (830) 613-6536.
