The Zachary Community School District recently hosted a luncheon to recognize some of the district’s outstanding seniors. These top stu-dents and their guests were joined by Zachary Superintendent Scott Devillier, members of the school board as well as city officials in-cluding Mayor David Amrhein who joined in saluting the students for their accomplishments.

Students were treated to a ca-tered lunch before receiving sur-prise gifts as a part of a new district initiative to award AP Scholars and National Merit Scholarship Corpo-ration recognized students.

Seniors who are recognized as National Merit Finalist or attain the highest level of AP Scholar, the AP Scholar with Distinction award, are eligible to receive a MacBook Pro laptop computer. National

Achievement Finalists, National Merit Commended Scholars and all other AP Scholars will receive iPads. The AP Scholar designa-tion is granted to students who receive scores of 3 or higher on three or more AP Exams. The AP Scholar with Honor designation is granted to students who receive an average score of at least 3.25 on all AP Exams taken, and scores of 3 or higher on four or more of these exams. The AP Scholar with Distinction is granted to students who receive an average score of at least 3.5 on all AP Exams taken, and scores of 3 or higher on five or more of these exams.

Pastor Murray to Retire,Public Invited to CelebrateBy James Ronald skains

“Barbara and I first came to Zachary 38 years ago pulling a U-Haul trailer, and I guess that is the way we will leave in June when we move to Tennessee,’’ David Mur-ray, currently Pastor of the Zachary Community Church told the Zach-ary Post.

“Our son, who was only a few months old at the time is now a 38 year old Professor at North Carolina State University and our other son lives near Nashville where we are moving,’’ Murray added.

During the 38 years after first ar-riving in Zachary as a Youth Min-ister under Dr. Barnes at the First Baptist Church, Murray and his family went half-way around the

world before returning to Zach-ary. Murray and his family spent five years working in the French West Indies Island of Guadeloupe in the Caribbean as a “Church Planter” (starting new churches). Murray’s work in Guadeloupe was a mission of the Southern Baptist Mission Board.

“There were a lot of Hindu people in the rural areas of Gua-deloupe,’’ Murray related. “That was the area in which I worked to establish new churches.’’

In 1848, sugar cane plantation owners on Guadeloupe begin to import indentured servants from Asia to work their fields, most of whom were Hindu. These were the ancestors of the Hindus that

Murray worked with.“From Guadeloupe, we moved

to France to a language school lo-cated in Tours,’’ Murray explained. “The school was used to train Bap-tist Missionaries in the French lan-guage and culture.’’

“Living in France was truly a delight for all our family,’’ Murray pointed out, “especially me because I was such a WWII history buff.’’

“We were able to visit the beach-es of Normandy and the national

cemetery where so many brave Americans were buried,’’ Murray noted. “Also, we visited the grave of General George S. Patton, and many other monuments that were tributes to the soldiers of WWII.’’

Both David and his wife Barbara grew up in Franklinton, Louisiana where Murray’s dad was the LSU Extension Service County Agent.

DAVID MURRAY continued from page 1

Although David and Barbara had known each other from the second grade, they did not begin dating until David transferred from Mis-sissippi College (a Christian faith college) to Southeastern Louisiana University (SLU) in Hammond where Murray earned a BA degree in Business.

“I really did not start out in life to become either a pastor or a mis-sionary,’’ Murray acknowledged. “However, while I was attending Mississippi College, the Lord began to work on me and I was led back to Louisiana to attend SLU where Barbara and I were married 44 years ago.’’

“Then, I was led to enroll at New Orleans Baptist Seminary,’’ Murray, who earned a Master of Divinity degree, elaborated. “That was how I first became connected to Zach-ary, through one of my Professor who knew Dr. Barnes in Zachary. While I was doing missionary work as well as at the language school, I always felt like I was representing the church here in Zachary.’’

“After about ten years in France at the language school, we were called to come back to First Bap-tist of Zachary where we remained for 12 years,’’ Murray noted. “After our time with that church, we were asked to get involved with a small group of non-denominational Chris-tians who, at first, where only inter-ested in having Bible studies.’’

“After a period of time, the num-ber of people coming to the Bible study increased to the point where we had a small church so we be-gan to meet in a borrowed church

building,’’ Murray explained. “The Zachary Community Church had a building, but no pastor at the time, so we kind of dated for about six months, and then decided to merge the two groups of Christians.’’

Murray has been very active in the Zachary community during his two residencies in Zachary. In April, 2011, Murray was the key-note speaker at a Relay for Cancer Survivor gathering where he dis-cussed in-depth, “On the Road to Healing.’’

Murray also teaches at Zachary High School. He has taught British Literature, Business English, Jour-nalism and college writing.

“We do have a great school sys-tem in Zachary, and I will miss it’’ Murray acknowledged. “But all our faculty members and admin-istration staff have worked very

hard for many years to achieve that goal.’’

“Barbara and I finally realized that we had a lot of great friends in the area, but no kinfolks. Both our children and grandkids live anywhere from 10 to 17 hours of driving time from us,’’

Murray explained, “so, we final-ly decided to make the move to be closer to our children.’’

“I also hope to find a little time for fly fishing for bream in Tennes-see,’’ Murray concluded.

The entire Zachary community is welcome to come share an af-ternoon with Barbara and David Murray on Sunday, May 26 from 2-5 p.m. at Zachary Community Church located at 4455 Church Street in Zachary to wish them well on the next adventures in their lives.

The district plans to continue the program with a spring and sum-mer event held each year. Zachary Schools officials say feedback on the program from students, par-ents and teachers has been tremen-dous. Everyone is thrilled that we are recognizing the hard work of these students and their success. Congratulations to these students on their outstanding accomplish-ments.

Recently, LWCC, Louisiana’s largest workers’ compensation carrier presented a $45,345 dividend check to the City of Zachary. Paul Owen, CIC, CRM, Agency Manager with John Hendry Insurance Agency proudly handed the check to Zachary Mayor David Amrhein and Zachary Human Resource Director, Ashlee Anderson. Paul commended the City of Zachary for their commitment to workplace safety, prompt return to work, and loss prevention, which ultimately lead to

the monetary reward the City received today as a policyholder.

According to Ashlee Anderson, Human Resource Director, the City has no recordable workplace inju-ries in 2013 thus far, and has reduced workplace accidents through new safety programs and procedures. This is LWCC’s largest dividend ever and brings their cumulative total dividend paid to policyholders over the past 10 years to more than $231 million.

For a culminating project of the second graders’ study of biodiversity, each class cre-ates their own biome, which is an inflatable 10 foot sphere which students and parents can tour. The biomes represented are the Deep Sea, the Coral Reef, the Arctic, Ant-arctica, and the Rainforest. When they enter, they will encounter the students’ projects, which are life-size recreations of native plant and animal species. Special effects, including sound clips, fog machines, and black lighting add to the atmosphere of each biome. The students’ research has been podcasted and can be accessed either through scanning a unique QR code or by listening from a playlist downloaded onto an IPod.

Zachary Elementary Students Experience Cajun Culture with Louisiana DayIn Our SchoolsBy TheResa dold PaymenT

On Thursday, April 24, students at Zachary Elementary School were treated to an up-close and personal experience with Louisi-ana Day. Activities included a pre-sentation by Mr. Iris Alleman who explained to the students what hunting and fishing was like and is still like, for many Cajuns to-day. He showed them an example of a trap nailed to trees under wa-ter to attract alligators and other animals.

Glitter, glue and giggles were all a part of the fun project of mak-ing masks during a presentation by Alice Blalock on Mardi Gras his-tory and they experienced the rich culture of storytelling by several volunteers dressed in authentic Cajun clothing. They storytellers explained why their stories were so important to the Cajuns as a

way to pass down their culture to future generations.

The most interactive parts of the day were playing games and of course—dancing! Fern and Whit-ney Sonnier along with William and Bo Bueche took to the dance floor and showed the children tra-ditional Cajun dances such as the two-step. Afterwards, the children were given the opportunity to ex-perience the dances on their own as well as with the instructors.

Volunteers in the community who want to ensure that our chil-dren know how unique and special the culture of their state is and to experience it through their lives made the day possible. Volunteers such as Mrs. Kris Dennis, Mrs. Kathy Mier, Clara Darbonne, Al-ice Blalock and many others.

Three Years In, KPAQ Papermill is ThrivingBy James Ronald skains

It is virtually unheard of to have

a paper mill shut down, go through a change of ownership, then through a bankruptcy and wind up with a new owner who successfully reopens and operates the paper mill. But that is exactly what happened at the KPAQ mill south of St. Francisville; a roller coaster ride that has stabilized into a win-win situation for all parties.

“The paper industry has stabi-lized somewhat this year, over what was happening a few years back,’’ Bob Boschee, CEO of KPAQ, told the Post / Explorer. “Our major prod-ucts are linerboard for boxes, and the multiwall heavy paper used for heavy products such as dog food and other heavy products that are that are packaged in paper bags.’’

“We are turning out about 230,000 tons of product annually and consuming over a million tons of chips,’’ Boschee informed the Post / Explorer. “Our work force, as of the

first of May, is 275.’’KPAQ has a diverse, but cross-

trained work force. Some of the current work force was at the St. Francisville paper mill when TEMBEC operated the plant, other workers were hired when West Feliciana Papers operated the plant, and a number of new hires have been made since KPAQ bought the plant in 2010.

“We are currently operating only two of the four paper machines in the mill,’’ Boschee, who has been in the paper making industry since 1971, ac-knowledged. “We have no plans on the drawing board to start up either of the two other machines.’’

Paper making machine #1 was brought on line in April 2010. Machine #2 was brought on line in the summer of 2011.

“About 70% of our wood chips come from a chip mill in Gloster, Mis-sissippi and the other 30% we buy from local harvesters,’’ Boschee added in explaining the source of the plants raw material. “We don’t have chipping fa-

cilities on site.’’When asked about rumors of the

short line railroad that once connected the paper mill to Baton Rouge by rail, and all points beyond, Boschee had this to say, “We are doing our due dili-gence now, and looking closely at the Canadian National owned short line railroad. It would be advantageous to us mostly in outbound shipment of our products. We do some rail shipment of paper now, but we have to truck it to a warehouse in Baton Rouge where our product is put in rail cars.’’

It was an up and down tense sce-nario for the mill employees, as well as the timber industry that had been sup-plying chips to the to the mill, for quite some time after TEMBEC shut down the mill. A group of investors set up West Feliciana Partners (WFP), which was able to purchase the property and reopen the mill.

After a short time, West Feliciana Partners went through a bankruptcy. The Senior Note Creditor, AMZAK Capital Management, bought the facil-ity out of bankruptcy. That was when the big turnaround occurred at the St. Francisville plant, and it was renamed KPAQ.

AMZAK Capital Management is a large venture capital firm located in south Florida. Prior to the invest-ment in the St. Francisville property, AMZAK had invested primarily in telecommunications and high tech companies. KPAQ was their first foray into the papermaking and forest indus-

tries.KPAQ has its own national sales

manager, Mike Butler, to spearhead KPAQ in continuing to expand its niche market in the paper industry. Butler, a veteran of the paper making industry like Boschee, joined the KPAQ team in late 2011. Boschee became CEO on January 1, 2012.

In discussing the source of energy to operate the mill, Boschee said, “We use a combination of natural gas and black liquor to produce steam to run turbines for some of our power. We do buy some of our electricity from Entergy.’’

Black Liquor is a by-product of the paper making industry that is rich in carbon. At one point, Black Liquor was considered a renewable energy source of power because it came from trees, and paper-making companies re-ceived a federal tax credit for using it to produce power and reduce emissions. However, a few years ago Congress terminated the Black Liquor tax credit. This was just another blow to the paper industry that was already fighting off imported paper on the US market. Dur-ing the few last years, three Paper Mills in the region, one at Natchez, one at Pineville, and the other one at Bastrop were shut down and never re-opened.

Perhaps, it is the resiliency, work ethics and “can do” attitude of the peo-ple in the Felicianas and Zachary areas that has helped keep the St. Francisville Paper Mill in operation when others have been permanently closed.

Catholic Charities Invites Zachary Residents to Join Safe Families for Children

Informational meeting about Safe Families for Children movement of compassion to be held on May 20 at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church.

When a family experiences a situ-ational crisis like a serious illness, domestic violence or homelessness, children suffer disruption along with their parents. Disconnected from fam-ily or other support, some parents find themselves temporarily unable to care for their children and have no place to turn for help.

Founded in 2005 in Chicago, Safe Families for Children offers a tempo-rary sanctuary in host homes to chil-dren whose families are in crisis but who don’t need foster care. As an al-ternative to Foster Care, Safe Families also offers support services to parents, and in many cases Safe Families vol-unteers continue on as mentors even after the child is returns home. What’s more, by providing an overwhelmed and resource-limited parent with a safe, temporary place for his or her child without the threat of losing cus-

tody, the program helps to reduce the potential for abuse and neglect.

Since Safe Families is a movement of volunteers, participation of the faith community and the community is crucial. People interested in joining are invited to attend an informational meeting on Monday, May 20, 2013, 6:30 pm at First Baptist Church in the Education Building Banquet Hall, 4200 Main Street, Zachary, LA 70791.

Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Baton Rouge brought the move-ment to the Baton Rouge area a little over a year ago at the request of Casey Family Programs.

“Understandably, overwhelmed agencies with scarce resources must focus on the most severe crises, leav-ing many parents hopeless and isolat-ed and children without help in situa-tions of escalating vulnerability,” said Barbara Thompson, Safe Families for Children coordinator. “Those of us working with children and families see this daily.”
