Copper Mill Golf Course to be Aquired by Homeowners

The Homeowners Association of award-winning Copper Mill Golf Community today announced they have formed a definitive agreement to purchase the golf course from Ross Bruce, developer of Copper Mill. The acquisition will solidify Copper Mill’s position as one of Louisiana’s premier golf communities consistently ranked in “Golf Digest’s Top 10” in the state.

History of Veterans DayWorld War I – known at the

time as “The Great War” - offi-cially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an ar-mistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied na-tions and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the elev-enth day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is generally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.”

In November 1919, President Wilson proclaimed November 11 as the first commemoration of Armistice Day with the follow-ing words: “To us in America, the reflections of Armistice Day will be filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with grati-tude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity

it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the councils of the nations…”

The original concept for the celebration was for a day observed with parades and public meetings and a brief suspension of business beginning at 11:00 a.m.

The United States Congress officially recognized the end of World War I when it passed a concurrent resolution on June 4, 1926, with these words:

Whereas the 11th of November 1918, marked the cessation of the most destructive, sanguinary, and far reaching war in human annals and the resumption by the people of the United States of peace-ful relations with other nations, which we hope may never again be severed, and

Whereas it is fitting that the recurring anniversary of this date should be commemorated with thanksgiving and prayer and exer-cises designed to perpetuate peace through good will and mutual un-derstanding between nations; and

Whereas the legislatures of twenty-seven of our States have already declared November 11 to be a legal holiday: Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives con-curring), that the President of the United States is requested to is-sue a proclamation calling upon the officials to display the flag of the United States on all Gov-ernment buildings on November 11 and inviting the people of the United States to observe the day in schools and churches, or other suitable places, with appropriate ceremonies of friendly relations with all other peoples.

The Baker Fire Department and Slaughter Volunteer Fire Department will receive urgently needed Turn Out Gear including helmets and gloves under the Georgia-Pacific Bucket Brigade™ grant program. The Geor-gia-Pacific Port Hudson Operations will present the fire units with their checks for $5,000 each to purchase the equipment on October 28.

“It is with great pleasure that we accept this grant from Georgia Pa-cific for our department. Georgia Pacific has been and always will be an asset to our community extend-ing their helping hand not only to our organization but many more through-out Louisiana. We will use this mon-ey wisely and will always be forever grateful,” commented Danny L. Ed-wards, Baker Fire Chief.

“It is critical that our firefighters have the equipment needed to pro-vide the best service possible to our community. We are very thankful for this grant, which helps us keep our firefighters safe and allows us to place more firefighters in service, thereby increasing the protection to our community,” remarked Jimbo Noland, Slaughter Volunteer Fire De-partment Fire Chief.

A record 55 fire departments will receive Georgia-Pacific Buck-et Brigade grants this year totaling $270,000, the largest amount since the program began in 2006. The pro-gram has now surpassed the $1.25 million mark in cash grants to fire departments that serve Georgia-Pa-cific’s facility communities across the country.

“We’re proud to have the oppor-

tunity to meet the significant needs by our local community fire depart-ment,” said Keith Wahoske of Geor-gia-Pacific’s Port Hudson Operations. “The Georgia-Pacific Bucket Brigade grants allow first-responders to better ensure the safety and security of the people in our communities, including our employees.”

The grants, generally ranging from $1,000 to $10,000, are based on need and are funded by the Georgia-Pacific Foundation and local Georgia-Pacific facilities. This year’s program appli-cants requested funds to replace items such as worn out protective clothing, cracked helmets, aging hoses and nozzles, and hand-held radios – es-sential equipment that will help keep firefighters safer and make their jobs easier.

The National Volunteer Fire Coun-cil (NVFC) says about 70 percent of the more than one million U.S. fire-fighters are volunteers. Georgia-Pacif-ic has partnered with the NVFC since 2008 to increase awareness about the grant program. Georgia-Pacific also gives all grant applicants free NVFC memberships, which provides access to tools, resources, programs and ad-vocacy for first-responders across the nation.

“The NVFC is pleased to partner with Georgia-Pacific, which has do-nated nearly $1.5 million in grants, fire safety educational materials and memberships to local volunteer first-responder communities,” said Heather Schafer, NVFC’s executive director. “This support goes a long way in help-ing departments protect the communi-ties they serve.”

Christmas in the Country Tour of Homes SetOwners of four stylish and dis-

tinct West Feliciana private homes – two modern, two historic – will open their doors to visitors during the Friends Of The West Felici-ana Parish Library - Christmas in the Country 2013 Tour of Homes. The event showcases architecture and interior design in a quartet of dwellings set in the rolling Feli-ciana hills and in downtown St. Francisville.

The home tour, set for Sunday, December 8 from noon till 5 p.m., is part of the parish’s popular Christmas celebration on the first weekend of December. Last year’s Tour of Homes was the most popu-lar yet, and organizers expect this season’s crowds to be even bigger.

The day begins at 11 a.m. with an optional jazz brunch at the Bluffs Resort Clubhouse, 14233 Sunrise Way, featuring trum-pet player John Gray. (The jazz

brunch must be purchased sepa-rately.) Doors to the private homes open at noon. The tour trail takes visitors on the following itinerary:

Home of Betsy & Christophe Levasseur. Built in 2012, this sprawling Acadian-style country house, designed by architect Mark Matthews, features extensive use of reclaimed hardwood on floors and beams throughout. The mantel over the fireplace is a hand-hewn railroad trestle.

Home of Coco & David Trep-pendahl. In 2003, the Treppendahls bought this beautiful, sanctuary-like property and turned a trac-tor barn into a refined-rustic de-sign jewel. The pole-beam house, called Dellamata by its owners, retains the original tin roof, but has taken on cypress board and batten siding. Working from her own artistic conception, architect Coco Treppendahl – whose studio

is on the premises -- built Dellabut graceful incline to a hollow below.

Home of Anna Macedo. Well-known area artist Anna Macedo recently moved into this Ferdinand Street home, which doubles as her studio. Owned by Peggy Sanders and Sue Catchings, the house was originally built as a two-room cot-tage in the mid-1800s. The current owners made significant additions in the 1970s. Macedo’s quirky eye for detail is well-known from her work in Country Roads magazine, so visitors are sure to enjoy an insider’s look at the environment she’s created.

St. Francisville’s wonderful main-street shops – along Fer-dinand, Commerce, and Royal Streets -- will be bursting with Christmas cheer, so guests won’t want to miss all they have to offer as they pass by on their way to the next destination.

Visitors are invited to cap off their day at the Bluffs Clubhouse with coffee, dessert, and shopping at the Boughs Of Holly Boutique, a seasonal pop-up shop featuring the work of local artists and arti-sans. There will be Christmas mu-sic and decorations at the Bluffs chapel, and, back at the Club-house, a special 4:30 p.m. drawing that will award valuable prizes to tour ticketholders (must be pres-ent to win).

Tour tickets are $20 per person, with proceeds going to Friends Of The West Feliciana Parish Library. Advance tickets may be purchased online at wftourofhomes.bpt.me or in person at the West Feliciana Parish Library. On the day of the tour, tickets will be available at the Bluffs Clubhouse or at homes on the tour. For more information, contact Pat Heurtin at 225-784-2731 or [email protected].

Zachary’s first ever Gleaux Run is a family-friendly event and open to all. The starting line will have corrals for each group so that runners can line up easily in the front.

Spectators are encouraged to get in the spirit and glow too! All spectators are wel-come to the after party and along the run/walk route.

The race begins at 6 p.m. On-site day of the race registration starts at 4:30 pm. For Gleaux Run updates be sure to visit Facebook and “Like” www.facebook.com/ZacharyGleauxRun.
