October 2014 HOBO NEWSLETTER P.O. Box 431·Wetumpka, AL 36092 HOBOs and Friends 4th Quarter HOBO meeting Monday, Oct. 27, 2014 Camp Chandler YMCA Camp—Lake Jordan Meeting at 7:00 p.m. Dinner at 6:30 Photo by Joyce Wright A Message From The President By the time you are reading this newsletter we will have completed the summer of 2014. I hope that everyone had a safe and enjoyable time on beautiful Lake Jordan. I would like to again express my thanks and appreciation to everyone who worked tirelessly to raise funds to put on the fireworks show this year. Once again, the fireworks were beautiful to watch. I attended the Coosa River Basin Lakes Association’s quarterly meeting on August 14, 2014. In attendance were Captain Michael Patrick, with the Alabama Marine Police, and Frank Chitwood, the Coosa Riverkeeper. Captain Patrick discussed a number of items including the maintenance and replacement of hazard buoys; and, allowed lights on boats. He stressed that budget reductions incurred by his department have placed a burden on their ability to timely replace and/or maintain the buoys. As for lights on boats, a discussion was held regarding acceptable and approved lighting for boats in motion on the water. Captain Patrick wanted to make sure that everyone understood that the newer colored lights on the sides of boats and also the docking lights (looks like car headlights) were not allowed when a boat was in motion on the water. The Marine Police can and will issue citations if they observe noncompliance with this requirement. Mr. Chitwood discussed the role of the “Riverkeeper” in monitoring sources of pollution on the lakes and river; and, in providing information to educate fishermen and the public on fish advisories issued by the Alabama Department of Public Health. He encouraged all lake residents and those who enjoy the lake to contact him if any questionable activities are observed. He can be contacted by e-mail at riverkeeper@coosariver.org or (205) 981-6565. Finally, please put October 27, 2014 on your calendar as the next meeting date for Lake Jordan HOBO Association. I encourage everyone to attend. The meeting will again be held at YMCA Camp Chandler starting at 7:00 pm (6:30 pm if you plan to eat). Gerald Lake Jordan Home Owners and Boat Owners Association Page 1 First Annual Elmore County Water Festival Coming to the Alabama Nature Center The Alabama Nature Center in collaboration with the Elmore County School System will hold the first-ever Elmore County Water Festival at the Alabama Nature Center in Millbrook. This three day event, beginning August 27th will target 1000 sixth grade public school students from Elmore County. The program is specifically designed to address an Alabama Course of Study Objective for science; teaching them about the water cycle and the importance and value of clean water and personal responsibility for our water resources in an educational, fun and engaging atmosphere. Students will be exposed to water through a wide variety of activities such as: Water Features Hike – Students will see firsthand what happens to precipitation when it reaches the earth’s surface by tracing water’s journey from its source as a natural spring to its destination in a stream. Aquatic Life Roundup – Students will explore the myriad of life that is supported by a pond by using nets to sample for animals that live there. Students will discover how animals adapt to aquatic life and how their survival is related to water quality. What is a Wetland? – Students will learn how streams and natural springs contribute to the creation of wetlands, and how wetlands function as part of the water cycle, including their ability to filter groundwater. Stream Walk – A hike in Still Creek will spark discussion about how humans contribute to the overall health of our waterways, including man’s effects on water quality, erosion and pollution. Students will learn that our drinking water is the result of a treatment/filtering process provided by our local water systems. Many thanks to our funding partners: International Paper Foundation, Central Elmore Water & Sewer Authority, Elmore Water and Sewer Authority, Wetumpka Water Works & Sewer, Alabama Clean Water Partnership, Goodwyn, Mills & Cawood, Lake Jordan HOBO and CH2MHILL.

Lake Jordan Homeowners and Boat Owners Association Page 2 Who’s That Flying on Lake Jordan?? If you’ve seen a young man flipping and spinning in all type of directions on his wakeboard, it is most likely Tyler Royal. Tyler, who regularly competes in wakeboarding throughout the region, spends most of his time practicing on his home lake, Lake Jordan. After breaking his femur from a skateboarding accident, Tyler was placed in traction for 21 days and then spent 6 months in a body cast at the young age of 8. After just getting out of his cast and still in a wheelchair, Tyler went to a wakeboarding competition where he met pro wakeboarder Shaun Murray, who inspired him to begin the sport and start competing. Currently 20 years old, he is the current Alabama State Champion in the Outlaw division of the Alabama INT, an International Water Sports Organization. Tyler has placed first in four INT tournaments this year. In late September, he will represent team Alabama at the INT Regionals where competitors from the eastern states will compete in a three day event to decide the US National Champion. Tyler’s sponsors include Inboard Solutions, Monster Energy, and Spy Optics. While he is not on the water, he teaches gymnastics at Titans Gymnastics and Cheer in Wallsboro. Tyler is also working to obtain his education in engineering and has recently began taking flying lessons. Tyler, a full time Lake Jordan resident, also enjoys teaching and sharing the sport to others. Tyler provides lessons from beginners to those wanting to work on advanced skills on a wakeboard, wakeskate or wakesurfing. If you need some assistance or just want to learn more about the sport, give him a call at 334-301-3736. Lake Jordan Homeowners and Boat Owners Association Page 3 Lake Jordan Homeowners and Boat Owners Association Page 4 An Awesome Night on BLJ featuring TROTLINE !! Thanks to the generosity of an anonymous HOBO member, the band TROTLINE performed a benefit concert on June 28, 2014 at Lake Jordan Marina. With very short notice, this concert raised much needed funds for the Lake Jordan Fireworks Fund. Started in the 90’s playing clubs and fraternity parties, TROTLINE, a Country band from Albany, Georgia is now one of the top party bands in the South. They entertained young and old on Beautiful Lake Jordan with sounds of Classic Rock, Southern Rock, Motown/Oldies and a variety of others. A special ‘Thank You’ to Michael Wood, Firework Fund Chairman, and Alan Williams, HOBO Board Member, for organizing and planning this entire event in under two weeks and the many other HOBO members that gave their generous time and support. We could not have done it without you! Lake Jordan Homeowners and Boat Owners Association Page 5 Lake Jordan Home Owners and Boat Owners Association Minutes of Quarterly Membership Meeting * July 28, 2014 The Lake Jordan Home Owners/Boat Owners Association Quarterly Membership Meeting was called to order by President Gerald Hardy at 7:00pm on July 28, 2014 at Camp Chandler on Lake Jordan. Gerald Hardy declared that a quorum was present to conduct business and called the meeting to order. The Invocation was given by Tim Owen. were placed in 14 different locations around Lake Jordan as a part of the Habitat Enhancement Program. Alabama Power’s Outreach Program includes participating in outdoor expos, talking to the media, and implementing grants programs for schools. Please visit www.alabamapower.com/lakes for more information. A motion was made and seconded to approve the minutes from the April 28, 2014 Quarterly HOBO Association meeting. The motion carried. Gerald Hardy recognized Peggy Young for her past service as the Membership Chair. Job Well Done! Gerald introduced and thanked Jacki Brown for her willingness to serve as the new Membership Chair for the HOBO Association. The Financial Report for the 2nd Quarter ending on June 30, 2014 was unavailable at the time of the meeting. Gerald also announced and thanked Wayne Turner for agreeing to Chair the Memorial and Worship Committee. Josh Yerby, Mike Clelland and Wes Anderson from Alabama Power were present at the meeting to tell about the Alabama Power Aquatic Vegetation and Mosquito Control Program and the Alabama Power Renew Our Rivers and Habitat Enhancement Program. Waterhyacinth, Water Lettuce, Watermilfoil, and Hydrilla are all non-native invasive (bad) aquatic plants. It is very important to report the presence of these plants to Alabama Power so that the vegetation can be treated immediately to prevent their spreading and getting out of control. More information about these and other harmful plants that could affect the lake can be found at http://plants.ifas.ufl.edu. A very common non-harmful aquatic plant known as Water Willow exists throughout the Lake and can also be treated and removed. For all aquatic plants concerns, please call Alabama Power at 1800 Lakes11. The membership concurred with both of Gerald’s new Chair appointments. Justin Castanza is leaving his position as the Director at Camp Chandler to assume a new position with the Montgomery Catholic Preparatory School System. The HOBO members are very happy for him and his new opportunity but are sad to see him go. We wish Justin the best!! Discussion took place regarding the selling of the HOBO membership list to vendors. The members present at the meeting were for the most part against it. A resolution will be drafted concerning this issue and will be presented to the membership for a vote. Committee Reports The Alabama Renew Our Rivers and Habitat Enhancement Program’s purpose is to renew the rivers through lake clean ups, to promote habitat enhancement with the tree placement program, and to implement outreach programs. Over the past 15 years of the Lake Clean Up, 2300 volunteers have cleaned 127,000 pounds of trash out of Lake Jordan. In 2014, 232 Christmas trees Lake Jordan Home Owners and Boat Owners Association Lake Clean Up – Barbara Dreyer reminded everyone to Mark Their Calendars!! The Lake Clean Up next year will be on April 25, 2015. Water Quality - Judy May informed everyone about a new Swim Guide App that tells where healthy swimming areas are located on the lake. Page 6 Presently most of the water testers are testing the water on the Titus side of Lake Jordan. Two of the swimming areas, Bonners and Blackwells, are located on the Holtville side of the lake and are in need of water testing. Water Safety – Dave White reported that the Water Safety Committee met with Marine Police Capt. Brooks and Officer Ray on June 13th to address and fix problems with safety hazards on the Lake. The session was very productive with a complete overview of the hazards, inventory and maintenance of buoys and the updating of procedures to report safety problems on the Lake. Currently, most all buoys have been replaced, identified by inventory and known hazards are identified. Additionally, action is underway to reinventory all the approved “No Wake” buoys to assure the individual(s) who originally were permitted to place the buoys are current and to resolve any related issues. Those “No Wake” buoys that have been placed without authorization will be removed. Should boaters/homeowners need to report a safety issue or need Marine Police emergency assistance, call 911 and the operator will make the necessary notification to support the emergency situation. For non-emergency calls, contact Marine Police Dispatch (Montgomery Trooper Post) 334 242-4128 or Alabama Marine Police Central Division Office at 256-329-2268. Fireworks – Michael Wood reported that the July 4th Fireworks show was a success. He was also happy to inform the membership that more than enough funds were raised to pay for this year’s show giving a surplus of funds to put toward the fireworks show in 2015. Membership – Jacki Brown is the new Chair of this committee. HOBO Newsletter – Marci Williams asked that all items for inclusion in the next HOBO Newsletter be in by September 1, 2014.

Government Relations Committee – SenatorElect Clyde Chambliss indicated to Logan Gray that he would like to come to another HOBO Meeting. Logan suggested that the January 2015 Meeting would be a good one for him to attend. Grants – John Bush was contacted by the Alabama Wildlife Federation concerning the Elmore County Water Festival. The Festival which is being held for a period of 3 days is an educational opportunity that targets all 6th graders (approximately 960 students) in Elmore County to go to the Alabama Nature Center in Millbrook. The students will learn about the importance and value of our water resources as well as how their actions affect the environment. The cost of the 3 day program is $8,210. A motion was made by John Bush and seconded by Alan Williams that the HOBO Association grant $500 to the project. The motion carried. The $50 Raffle drawing was held and congratulations to the winner, Mary Jankay. There being no further business, Gerald Hardy adjourned the meeting. The next meeting will be held on Monday, October 27th at 7:00pm (6:30 pm if you want to eat) at Camp Chandler. Respectfully Submitted, Joyce Wright Secretary Memorial and Worship – The new Chair, Wayne Turner, reminded the membership that services are held every Sunday at 8am until Labor Day. Lake Jordan Homeowners and Boat Owners Association Page 7 ELMORE COUNTY RECYCLING PROGRAM PROGRESS REPORT There was good news for the program at the July Elmore County Recycling Advisory Committee meeting: we are well on our way to meeting our goal of reducing the solid waste (garbage) collections. Collections totaled 125 tons in 2012, 300 tons in 2013 and through June of this year over 250 tons have been deposited by those who want to help meet our ultimate goal of 25 percent. All schools in Elmore County participate in the program and bins for deposits by the general public have been positioned at convenient locations throughout the county. A new Recycling Flyer can be seen on lakejordanhobo.org and will be available at our next HOBO meeting. Flyers will also be provided to all HOBO Area representatives. Go to the Elmore County web site if you need additional information. That site provides information on recycling as well as information on the Elmore Countywide Clean-up days. ARE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY PARTICIPATING IN THE ELMORE COUNTY RECYCLING PROGRAM? If not, why not? It takes little effort…just set up a cloths basket or other container in the utility area of your home and deposit paper and plastic items in the box. Drop off the collections at the nearest Recycling Bin on your way to school or when you go shopping. STAR ID PROGRAM In response to the attacks of September 11, 2001, and the ongoing threat of additional terrorist activity, the United States Congress passed the REAL ID Act of 2005. This legislation modified U.S. federal law pertaining to security, authentication, and issuance procedure standards for state driver's licenses and identification (ID) cards, as well as various immigration issues pertaining to terrorism. In the future, only those state issued Driver Licenses and Identification cards which are fully compliant with the REAL ID act of 2005 will be authorized for use as identification for official federal government purposes, such as boarding commercial aircraft and entering certain regulated federal facilities. All current Alabama Driver Licenses and ID cards will be accepted for official federal purposes until December 1, 2014**. Beginning on that date, those persons born after December 1, 1964 will be required to have a REAL ID compliant document* if they wish to board commercial aircraft or access other regulated federal facilities. On December 1, 2017, this regulation will go into effect for those born on or before December 1, 1964. *Those persons who hold a valid United States passport may use this document in place of the required REAL ID compliant identification. **While the REAL ID Act of 2005 includes the deadlines Dec. 1, 2014, and Dec. 1, 2017, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has announced it will implement its enforcement phase no sooner than 2016. In response to these requirements, the Alabama Department of Public Safety has developed the STAR✭ID program. Persons who meet the issuance requirements for Alabama Driver Licenses and Non-Driver Identification cards are afforded the opportunity to go a step beyond the standard requirements to obtain a STAR✭ID. In addition to the standard requirements of the Alabama Department of Public Safety, those who select STAR✭ID will be required to present additional documents specified by the REAL ID act of 2005. Upon presenting these documents and fulfilling the issuance procedures required, these applicants will receive an Alabama STAR✭ID, which will serve as valid identification for official federal government purposes.
