Ball Park Named for Ed Whitehurst, Sr

Click on the Title above to read the entire article:


Summary of Information: On October 15, 2007, the Pitt County
Board of Commissioners approved a "Policy for the Naming and
Dedication of Parks and Recreation Areas". This Policy
allowed for recognizing individuals who make substantial
financial or other contributions to the development of parks
and recreation facilities. The County has received a
substantial contribution to the Pitt County District Park.
EJE Recycling and Disposal, Inc. has donated the fencing and
infield for a second softball field at the Park. The County
had budgeted approximately $72,000 for this work. The funds
were to come from the PARTF grant and the County's match.
Now that the softball field has been donated, the County can
use its grant funds and County match for other additions to
the Park.
The owners of EJE Recycling and Disposal, Inc. have
requested that the field they have donated, be named "Ed
Whitehurst, Sr. Field".
Submitter Recommendations/Motions: That the new softball
field at the Pitt County District Park be named "Ed
Whitehurst, Sr. Field" and that appropriate signs be erected
at the field to so designate it and that a resolution be
adopted and presented to Mr. Whitehurst at some later date.

My friend, Brenda Harris and her husband, Jimmy, were in Myrtle Beach over the weekend. I've posted a beautiful sunset picture she sent and also a picture of seagulls from her balcony. The picture from her balcony reminds me of the Hitchcock thriller, The Birds.

Ed and I traveled to Key Largo, where Chris and his friends went for a day of snorkeling at the reef there. We met them at John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and then headed for "The Big Chill" Bar & Grill for a little conversation! Chris was staying with some friends, one who has a house at Boynton Beach. Chris is in Florida for some art shows that he will be attending. Here are some pictures taken at the park and at the waterfront restaurant.

Bahia Honda State Park

It was really windy today, as it always is in the keys and a little cool in February, but we ventured out for a Sunday morning excursion.

Ed and I visited Bahia Honda State Park. It was really beautiful. There was a wonderful sandy beach, a butterfly garden, a marina, a campground, and plenty of great kodak moments. I've included some of the pictues we took.
