Flagler County has had its share of history-making residents, one
of whom is native surfer Frieda Zamba. Adding to our recent acquisitions celebrating such local
heroes, is a newly donated
Sports Illustrated postcard
featuring Frieda, a four-time
World Championship surfer.
Also, with a new year underway, the Museum hosted
our General Membership
Annual Meeting & Board
Elections on January 14th.
We thank our entire Board
& Officers for returning to
serve another 1-3 years,
and we welcome new board
member, Kelli O’Reilly. The
owner-manager of popular
local restaurant “Blue” will
be featured in the Spring
newsletter.
We are also excited to
announce our new partnership with the local Pier radio
station. History tidbits and
shout-outs to our Members
will be a daily occurrance on
“The Sound of the Surf” later
this year. A tip of our hats to
partner Vern Shank, founder
and manager of Surf17 currently
on the Internet and on radios at
1700AM. Also a big thank you
to Attorney Timothy J. Conner for helping us navigate the
legal waters on this and other
issues. Get a sneak preview at

WELCOME Karen Young, our new Tourism Liasion!
Languid and leisurely Sundays in downtown Flagler Beach can
offer a refreshing “pick-me-up” from a fave local eatery, a stroll through
Veterans Park or a walk on the
Pier, and chilly dips in the ocean
followed by a relaxing bake on
the beach under the glowing
sun. We take this opportunity
to remind you that it can mean
one more thing: a stop to cool
off for a “walk back in time” with
Karen Young at the Museum.
That’s right; tourists, visiting
friends, and residents alike can
enjoy a visit to the Museum on
any given Sunday. Thanks for
that goes to the county’s Tourism Development Council
P h o t o c o u r t e s y o f F l a g l e r (TDC) who advise our comCounty Chamber & Affiliates
missioners on the best ways to
utilize accommodation taxes. All of us are familiar with the Interstate
Highway signs that announce Visitor Center exits. Because of the
stipulation that those centers be open 7 days a week, and because
the Museum has been the Flagler Beach Chamber’s Welcome
Center 6 days a week for many years, it was a natural fit to expand
to Sunday openings and an enthusiastic partnership has thrived for
the past two years.
2014 brought us a fresh new breeze in the role of our part-time
liaison when Karen joined the team and she will be on hand to greet
Museum guests every Sunday from 10am - 4pm, as well as many
Friday and Saturday afternoons. Karen will also be expanding her
knowledge of local tourism attractions and sharing that information
with everyone who greets the public. We all look forward to utilizing
Karen as the “go-to” expert on what is happening to draw new visitors to Flagler County and to keep them happy here once they arrive!
So schedule a Sunday visit to your local Museum soon to welcome Karen and share your favorite county fun spots with her. Read
on to learn more about Karen Young and her special affinity for both
history and Flagler County attractions.
Though born in Colorado and raised in New Jersey, I have been a resident of Flagler County for over 28 years, and consider myself a
Floridian in every sense of the word! Since “retiring” from teaching middle school in St. Augustine, I’ve had a number of post-career jobs,
including several as receptionists for some local businesses. To me, the great advantage of having experienced these different types of jobs
has been that I have acquired something of value from each one, whether it be skills mastered or knowledge of a new and previously unknown
field. At other times it was the opportunity to see behind the scenes -- and what makes different types of businesses run smoothly. Skills from
one situation can be adapted to another and also used in regular life situations to help develop creative solutions to various types of problems.
Of course the best thing about working in numerous fields is meeting all kinds of people and learning about and from them.
The Museum was already a favorite and familiar place when I learned of the liaison opportunity. As a member of the museum’s Team
Gala Team for the past four years, I have enjoyed every one of them. These events work so well because of the great team spirit that is clearly
present in the Museum family. Their dedication is evident in the fact that the Galas are not only successful fund raisers but good times as well.
I am looking forward to my new job as Tourism Liasion. It will be easy to promote Flagler County. I’ve been doing it for years! Our number
one attraction is our beautiful, family friendly beach, but no one should overlook the many amazing city, county, and state parks we have here.
They simply cannot be beat! There are plenty of prime spots for all types of activities in Flagler County!
History of all kinds has also always been of major interest to
me. I especially love the small stories of small places. I am certain Photo (L to R) Back Row: City Liaison & Flagler Beach Mayor Linda Provencher,

2014 MUSEUM BOARD OF
DIRECTORS
I have met some of the wonderful people who work here and
I am very impressed with what they each bring to the museum’s
operations. The visitors and residents of the county who have
stopped in have all been great as well. It’s been an interesting
experience so far and I am looking forward to growing with the job.

Congrats to 2013’s Scramble Ramble Winners!
AT THE BEACH
FLAGLER BEACH, FL
Dec. 6, 2013
The popular annual “Scramble Ramble” hosted each year by the Flagler Beach Historical Museum,
was held on Dec. 6, 2013 in partnership with our city’s “Holiday at the Beach.” Each participating
business was given an alphabet letter to display in their businesses. Players picked up a copy of
the puzzle game and visited each merchant to write their letter in the corresponding puzzle spaces.
They returned their completed puzzle to the Museum to be entered in a drawing to win great prizes!
Although everyone who plays is a winner, we congratulate those who were awarded prizes featured below!
See page 8 for photos and quotes from half of our Scramble Ramble participating businesses. Watch
the same space for the other half of the Scramble Ramble Merchant Team in the next newsletter.
What a pay-off for Tony & Rose Matassa of Ormond Beach (photo above), who enjoyed
an evening of Scramble Ramble fun... and then won! This year’s Grand Prize of $100 went to
Tony, and in a side drawing, Rose won a great gift basket provided by Down by the Sea Gift
Shop! Tony and Rose said they’d played last year, too, and returned because they had such
a great time.
Another return participant was Flagler Beach’s own Jane Mealy who won the 2nd place
prize of $50. Jane plays the Scramble Ramble every year and said, “I love playing -- and love the
idea of the game -- which is to encourage people to get out and enjoy our local businesses, and
discover some shops, restaurants and new merchants they might not have known were there!”
Donald Brabson from Washington won 3rd prize which was a $45 shopping spree in the
museum. He graciously allowed his sister Donna of Palm Coast to choose, and she chose one
of the unique Flagler Beach historic throws that we sell in the museum!
Lori Gilberti, of Flagler Beach (photo right) is another familiar Scramble Ramble face! She
also won a wonderful gift bag donated from Down by the Sea Gift Shop. Lori is often the first
person to hit the Holiday Stroll with her Scramble puzzle each year.
And finally, Mercy Delgado and her daughter teamed up and won a $25 gift certificate
donated from participating hair salon: Cuts & Curls. Congratulations to our 2013 Winners!
Bahama Mama’s wins Fan Favorite: “Best Decorations!”
Renee & Emily
As they have done many times in the past, Bahama Mama's Tropical Gifts at 208 S. Central Ave,
once again won a Fan Fave Scramble Prize for Best Decorations! This specialized shop located directly
across from the Museum, has been owned by Emily Granger since 2006. Originally from Maryland, Emily
lived in Germany and California before making Flagler Beach her home. Bahama Mama's Tropical Gifts is
a mother-daughter endeavor (Emily's mom is Renee Worthington) and together they created a business
that is really beyond your typical "gift shop." The items for sale inside have been selected with Flagler
Beach in mind, and particularly "beach living," so that when customers come in they are surrounded with
a multitude of gifts geared for a beach lifestyle that cannot be found anywhere else. So Bahama Mama’s
is perfect for locals looking for something uniquely beach-oriented to adorn their homes, as well as for
visitors searching for a perfect Florida lifestyle gift to take to friends or family as vacation gifts. Call Bahama Mama’s (386) 439-5678 for hours or more information. Or visit: www.bahamamamasflagler.com
Note: The 2013 Winner of Best Treats & Ambiance was Southeast Jewelers! Watch this space for
an upcoming feature on their thriving local business. And see more participants in this issue on Page 8!

come to Flagler Beach from all over the state, and especially for our
downtown merchants who enjoy one of their most profitable days
of the year. Personally, we look forward to throwing the Museum
doors wide open each fall, to check out the hot/cool cars, and to
welcome both new and familiar faces.
We can’t thank the Corvette Club enough for their FIVE!!

The History Corner
You Should Have Been Here Yesterday...
Editor’s Intro: Throughout our history two local factions have always been
drawn to the iconic Flagler Beach Pier: Fishers and Surfers. Since they still are
today, we remind everyone that “History isn’t always ancient, but it IS always
in the making.”
In this quarter’s History Corner we welcome Museum Member and Guest
Writer Maria Sayers as she shares in vivid detail the pleasures of a happy
day of pier fishing. Meanwhile, we welcome back photographer Ed Siarkowicz
who snapped a surfer enjoying the solitude at sunrise. Where? At the Flagler
Beach Pier, of course!
Outside it is still inky black, but they say the fish bite early, so
we’re up at five a.m. to go to the Flagler Beach pier. I grind the beans
and while the coffee is perking we put the gear in the trunk. Poles
and tackle box, cooler, rags, bananas, ice water, coffee thermos, sun
visor, sun screen and sun glasses, money, bait box, folding chairs.
The giddiness of anticipation, and the knowledge that today is the day
when the fish will choose our bait over anyone else’s and jump joyfully
into our cooler.
By the time we get to Highway 100
there is a hint of daylight, enough to see
an armadillo on the side of the road. It
looks pre-historic and far more exotic
than the raccoons that fought nightly with
our trash cans back in Michigan. Darkness is paling and just before the Flagler
Bridge, on the rim of a pond, there is a
wide-limbed tree, its branches covered
with snowy egrets, turning the tree into a
giant puff of cotton candy. From the top of
the bridge, on both sides, we perceive the
intracoastal waterway snaking through
countless narrow inlets and, in front of
us, the ocean, still dark except for the
sliver of moonlight that turns it into liquid
mercury in spots.
We buy bait at Big Al’s shop. There are live mullet and mud
minnows, live and dead shrimp, sand fleas, squid and more. Beluga
caviar would be cheaper than any fish we may catch. Fishing is more
than tossing a line with a smelly tidbit on the end. Fish are discerning
creatures. You may be inches apart from the fisherman next to you,
but from the murky depths of the ocean the fish makes his choice
and will gleefully bite his bait, while mine lies pristine and untouched.
It’s a friendly pier, although initially I felt out of place, being both a
woman and a non-smoker. Having been a foreign language instructor,
I am charmed by the accents. The U.S.A, Canada, the Caribbean,
Russia, Eastern Europe, the Hispanic world, Portugal, and many others countries I cannot identify are regularly represented on the pier.
Most of us are retired and come from a vast array of educational and
economic backgrounds. We have in common the daily futility of trying
to outsmart the fish. We have a warped sense of humor and we like
to tell the newcomers:
“You should have been here yesterday. They were biting like crazy.”
Most of the time it’s a lie, but we enjoy it.
This morning, I rig my poles and dip the little net into the bucket
to pluck out a live mullet, but they’re swimming around in a crazy
whirl trying to escape becoming bait, so the one I grab squirts out of
my fingers, goes through the slats of the pier and saves his life, temporarily at least, by jumping into the ocean. I look around sheepishly
hoping the guys didn’t see my ineptitude, and eventually manage to
bait my hooks, lean them against the railing and walk to the end of
the pier. If anything bites, someone will holler at me. Right now I have
something more important to do. Sunrise is about to happen on the
Flagler Beach pier.
~ by Maria Sayers
And once again, I wonder why sunsets get all the attention. They
know how to dazzle, but sometimes the sun doesn’t bother to wear its
colors and day jumps into night without a beautiful transition. A sunrise
may go unnoticed, but it is always the beginning of something special:
a new day. Today, the curved yellow sun line emerged from the water
shaky and irregular, like a drawing from a childish crayon. But quickly
it became a full circle, and just as it colored completely in fiery orange,
a shrimp boat crossed in front of it and turned the sun into a sliced
orange. Finally the boat moved and the orange was complete again,
shoving the clouds out of the way and resolutely rising up in a fireball.
No sunset could be more dramatic.
The coolness of dawn soon gives way to heat and humidity. I
change the bait and wipe my hands on the putrid fishing rag. My nails
are broken, and hold dark guts from the mullet and orange roe from
the shrimp. My elbows are white from leaning on the railing where
the birds have been perching, the bird poop still fresh and oozy in
spots, dried up like chalk in others. I wipe
the poop on my football T-shirt, which is
already smeared with guts, shrimp heads
and fish scales. The name of the player
who left the team for greener pastures is
now sprinkled with bird poop, and I know
that Detroit Lions fans would find that a
just reward.
It is much too hot now, and the
humidity is off the charts. I slouch on my
chair, one leg up and over the cooler, flipflop precariously dangling at the end of
my big toe. The other foot is on the floor,
and it’s bare. I don’t know where that flipflop went, and I don’t care. I put my head
back, arms limp, hanging at my sides. I
am a boneless chicken. In a sleepy haze
I look at the waves, sprinkled with surfers
bobbing like giant corks.
A couple of middle-aged tourists walk by me and take a good
look. I am sprawled half on the chair and half on the cooler, shoeless,
sweaty and stinky. The man politely asks:
“Do you mind if we take your picture? I want to show my friends
up north what retirement looks like.”
With as much energy as I can muster, I nod. I look toward the sun,
the waves, then the town itself. Little buildings, pink and yellow and
purple cubes, charming and quaint. I whisper to no one in particular:
“This is not just what retirement looks like. This is what happiness
looks like.”
Many thanks to Maria for sharing her great slice of life piece and for her
continued support as a member of the museum. We also thank Ed for sharing
his photographic talents with us in our newsletter and at our annual auction.
