City considers holiday decoration policy By CARSON COOK carson@appenmediagroup.com DUNWOODY, Ga. — The Dunwoody City Council considered a policy for holiday decorations at its Oct. 14 meeting, but delayed a vote to allow for more opportunity for public comment. Under the new policy, city buildings would not be able to decorate with religious symbols, such as a nativity scene or menorah. The city could still put up decorations that are considered secular, even if they are traditionally associated with a religious holiday, such as Santa Claus, a “holiday tree” or a dreidel. City employees would be allowed to keep religious symbols at their desks or personal spaces. The policy would only govern public displays.

City Attorney Bill Riley said the proposed policy was drafted after an unidentified citizen requested that the city display a nativity scene during the upcoming holiday season. Riley noted that when cases regarding the display of religious symbols on public grounds go to the Supreme Court, they usually end in controversial, 5-4 votes. “We drafted a policy that steered away from all of that,” Riley said. “We didn’t really want to get into a fight on either side of it.” The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution states “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.” Subsequent court deci-

Book: Continued from Page 1 opioids. There’s something for everyone.” The team of volunteers and MJCCA staffers who put on the annual festival spend months selecting authors and preparing the programs. A team of volunteers flies to New York each spring to meet with hundred of authors from the Jewish Book Network. After hearing authors make their pitch, they make a list of about 60 authors they’d like to bring to the festival. Back in Dunwoody, a team of about 100 volunteers narrows down the list to a few dozen. “[The New York trip] is just the most amazing experience,” said Deena Profis, the other co-chair. “It’s an amazing group of people we bring to New York because we’re business. Our goal is to

bring the best of the best, and the committee we take to New York is a welloiled machine.” The book festival also finds local authors through online submissions and works with publishers to bring in the big-name speakers like the Clintons, former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley and Olympic figure skater Adam Rippon. As exciting as those big names are, Morton said every presentation is a treat. “The marquee names are great draws — Henry Winkler, the Clintons, Nikki Haley and Candace Bushnell,” she said. “They’re amazing. Little needs to be said because they are who they are, but there’s a lot to be said about others that you may never have heard of before. We walk out of every program going, ‘Wow! That was the best one ever.’” Once the list of authors is selected,

organizers go about arranging the programs. Most authors are matched with another for a joint presentation, based on a shared genre or the themes their books explore. “There have been authors that have been paired together that didn’t know each other, but have since enjoyed that camaraderie of being together,” Hyman said. There is also a committee to find moderators to interview the speakers, many of whom are remarkable figures in their own right, such as Lois Reitzes, the host of “City Lights” and 11 Alive

reporter Melissa Long. Now in the final weeks before the festival, volunteers and staff are selling tickets, stuffing gift bags for the authors, promoting the event and practicing how to say the speakers’ names. As demanding as the job is, Hyman said she’s not ready for it to be over. “I’ve loved every second of it,” Hyman said. “It’s just a labor of love. We get to meet these authors; it’s a wonderful group of people we work with — it’s just a win-win.” From Oct. 30 to Nov. 18, 2019, more than 13,000 people from across the Southeast are expected to gather at the MJCCA in Dunwoody to engage with and listen to their favorite local, national and international authors. “Of course, this festival is a literary extravaganza,” Morton said. “But I hear people say to us, ‘I don’t read anymore’ or ‘I’m just too busy to read. I have kids at home,’ and we always say you don’t have to read to come to the festival. We always want people to walk away feeling like they learned something new or were entertained.” All events will be held at 5342 Tilly Mill Road, Dunwoody. Guests can purchase tickets for each individual event or purchase a series pass for access to most of the November events. Some events are free.

David Keith Bouseman passed away at home on October 16th, 2019. David was born on February 21, 1958 in Eldorado, IL to John Keith Bouseman and Barbara Ann (Busby) Bouseman. David graduated high school in Champaign, IL BOUSEMAN and received his degree in commercial art from IVY Technical school in Evansville, IN. David was a talented floral designer and the creative force behind David’s Flowers & in Dunwoody, Georgia for many years. David was currently employed by Scottsdale Farms, Inc. David is survived by his best friend and partner, Charles Holman Anderson of Atlanta. He is also survived by two sisters, Karen Vallowe and husband Fred and Lynn Bouseman and partner Ron Heil all of McLeansboro, IL, two brothers Tom Bouseman and wife Jordan of Belleville, IL and Paul Bouseman and wife Dee of New-

Council: Continued from Page 1 sions have ruled this clause does not only apply to the U.S. Congress, but all levels of government. Mayor Denis Shortal indicated he wasn’t the biggest fan of the policy, but said he wouldn’t “die on this hill” if the rest of the council supported it. “From a personal standpoint, sometimes I think we over-legislate the world here a little bit,” Shortal said. “I understand the pros and cons … I guess it’s the way things are today. I grew up in a different world where you just put something up.” No council members raised objections, but Councilman John Heneghan asked that the vote be pushed back to the next meeting to give the public time to review the policy and weigh in. “I think I’m OK with what we have in front of us,” he said. “I’m ready to vote yes, but that being said I want to make sure we are doing our due diligence when it comes to the transparency aspect. This does not require a second read, but I see no reason or the urgency to approve it tonight.” Riley said that as long as there was a policy in place before decorations would start going up in mid-November there was no problem with delaying the vote. The council unanimously voted to take the issue up at their Oct. 28 meeting. Also at the Oct. 14 meeting, the council discussed but did not act on the Vulnerable Road User policy and public art policy. The Vulnerable Road User ordinance would establish clear rules for drivers, bikers and pedestrians to share the roads and create harsher penalties for drivers who

He is also survived by seven nieces: Kate Jadele and husband Tim, Sarah Vallowe and fiance Mallory, Mary Ogilvie, Kara Welch and fiance Levi, Zoe Bouseman and fiance Jeremy, Olive Bouseman and Rose Bouseman, a nephew Jasper Bouseman, one great nephew Owen Jedele and 2 great nieces, Ava Jedele and Evelyn Hybbert. David loved spending time with family and was especially proud of all his nieces and nephews. David was preceded in death by his mother, father and grandparents, Carl and Mildred Busby and Tom and Catherine Bouseman. Per David’s wishes he will be cremated and laid to rest by his mother in McLeansboro, IL at a later date.

Though discussed for several meetings now, there has been no vote. Members of the public have spoken both for and against the proposal. Councilwoman Lynn Deutsch said that if the policy is adopted there should be a six-month rollout period where the city works to educate the public and make sure appropriate infrastructure is in place before enforcement begins. Councilman Tom Lambert, who brought forward the ordinance, agreed with the suggestion. Shortal said he thought the maximum penalty of six-months in jail was too harsh. Others said they trusted the judges’ discretion and that few if any violators would actually face that punishment. Shortal also took issue with the requirement that drivers move into the lane for opposing traffic if necessary to give three feet of space when passing a biker or other road user. “Moving completely into the opposite lane just defies what we’re always supposed to do,” he said. “I just think that’s very questionable. I don’t feel comfortable doing that.” Lambert said that was an essential part of the ordinance. Part of the goal of the ordinance, he said, is to clarify that it is legal to cross a double yellow line to give sufficient space to a bicyclist. “By putting that in there we’re clearly saying ‘Yes, you’re not only allowed to but we’re asking you to,” Lambert said. “Without that we’re basically where we are today.” The ordinance will be discussed again Nov. 18, when they will also continue discussion about public art. Three residents spoke during the public comment asking the council to make public art a higher priority.

OPINION

Princess Puddin’s perspective on black cats Mum is busy stocking up on Halloween candy, so I’ve taken over this week’s column in an effort to help black cats everywhere. *** I’m happy to be a beautiful calico cat who’s considered to KATHY be good luck. How MANOS PENN cool is that? But what about those poor black cats? How did they get such a bad rap? The answer requires a brief history lesson. We cats started hanging around humans 10,000 years ago when you first started growing food instead of hunting it. Cats were observant and noticed rodents wherever corn and wheat were stored, and rodents meant a meal. Soon enough, cats grew to like people and vice-versa. Most everyone knows that the Egyptians worshipped cats. They realized that we made fine pets but still had minds of our own. Does that sound like the cats you know? I mean, do we come when called? The Egyptians also worshipped gods

and goddesses that were part human and part cat. The goddess of violence and fertility, Bastet, was one of those combos, and one of her favorite colors was black. Don’t ask me how you combine violence and fertility. Humans come up with the strangest ideas, but Bastet is why black cats were seen as special. Note, I said special, not bad luck or evil. Perhaps it was this pagan affinity for cats that caused medieval Christians to distrust us. Distrust is too mild a word. Heck, they accused us of participating in orgies with the devil. From then on, it got worse for cats, especially black ones. We were all described as favorites of the devil and of witches, and you know what happened to the witches, don’t you? Years later, cats were better appreciated with intelligent people like Charles Dickens and Mark Twain holding us in high regard. Having a few admirers still didn’t do away with most people’s fear of cats, black ones in particular, and Edgar Allan Poe’s horror story “The Black Cat” didn’t help matters. I mean, honestly, he described a dead black cat driving some poor human mad, and people believed him. Even today, black cats remain unpopular. Because they’re the least likely

of all cats to be adopted from shelters, August 17 is Black Cat Appreciation Day in the U.S., and the UK has Black Cat Day on Oct. 27 for the same reason. I guess superstitions die hard, and just as people avoid walking under ladders or living on the 13th floor, some also avoid black cats. Seeing black cats as Halloween decorations, along with witches and monsters like Dracula and Frankenstein, likely reinforces this aversion. There’s never been any proof to support these wrong-headed beliefs about black cats, but then, when have humans ever needed proof? My mum, of course, has never believed any of this hooey. She once had a stunning black cat named Sheba and loved her dearly. Just because Mum went on to own a white cat and two calicos doesn’t mean she thinks there’s anything wrong with black ones. The fact is all cats are magnificent creatures, and black cats are exceptionally striking; though, of course, not quite as striking as we calico kitties. I know I can’t solve this black cat problem myself, but I have a suggestion for the Humane Society: Run a one-month ad campaign in August to coincide with Black Cat Appreciation Day or in October to

counteract all the Halloween hoopla. The slogan? A black cat for every lap. I hope you’ll do your bit to help black cats and all cats by adopting a cat from a Lifeline location today.

Rotary comes through for high school band The Dunwoody High School Band will now find it a bit easier traveling to events, thanks to a donation from the Rotary Club of Dunwoody. In the past, travel by the band to other schools and events was difficult and tedious with no official mode of transportation. Often, the band had to rent trailers to ensure instruments and equipment got to the location along with the band members.

The Dunwoody Band Boosters approached Rotary for some help, asking to help fund a trailer appropriate for the band’s travel. The grant was approved and a check for $4,095 was used to provide the necessary trailer. Devices to attach the instruments to the walls of the trailer will come soon. Band Director Amy Caputo and the band look forward to using the trailer for years to come.

Nonprofits partner with Belk to help homeless families DUNWOODY, Ga. — Family Promise will hold its first-ever Giving Day this Friday, Oct. 25, a 24-hour online event to raise funds and awareness of the national crisis of family homelessness, with matching donations from Belk. The retailer is offering grants to 32 affiliates in 11 states, including Family Promise of North FultonDeKalb, based in Dunwoody, and Family Promise of Gwinnett County in Lawrenceville. Challenge grants will be used to incentivize community participation in Family Promise Giving Day. Family Promise provides a safety net to support families at risk of homelessness. What began as a local initiative in New Jersey has become a national movement that involves 200,000 volunteers and serves more than 90,000 family members each year. Earlier this year, Belk announced a $1 million donation to Family Promise to open 10 new affiliates and support 85 existing affiliates in the retailer’s 16-state footprint, which will help parents and their children receive the support they need to sustain independent housing. “Through Belk’s support, the average

number of programs offered by Family Promise Affiliates in Belk’s footprint more than doubled between 2017 and 2018,” Family Promise CEO Claas Ehlers said. “Last year, Family Promise served nearly 50,000 people in the Southeast through prevention, shelter and stabilization programs and other support.” Family Promise affiliates in the Belk footprint run 265 innovative programs including transportation, life skills, financial capability, food assistance, rental and utility assistance, and postshelter support. Family Promise also provides childcare, clothing donations, parenting courses, after-school tutoring and health and wellness workshops. Last year, in these communities: 82 percent of families in shelter achieved sustainable housing, the average length of stay in shelter program was 66 days, 63,000 volunteers provided resources to families, 61 percent of those served in the shelter program were children and 68 percent of families served in the shelter program were female-headed households.

OPINION

Cold Greenland is hot When asked about “bucket list travel dreams,” clients never mention Greenland. Greenland is the world’s largest island that’s not a continent, as is LoLewis J. Walker, CFP Australia. cated east of the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, surrounded by the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, most of the country lies north of the Arctic Circle. Over 80 percent of the land mass is covered with a massive ice sheet. Adventurous travelers are showing increased interest in Greenland, as are real estate buyers! The “Mansion” section of The Wall

Street Journal (9/27/19) featured a story headlined, “Greenland Is Getting Hotter: Real-estate agents see an uptick in inquiries for their already-hot market after a presidential proposal.” In August, President Trump floated a not-so-new-idea of America buying Greenland, prompting the Danish prime minister to label the notion “absurd.” Why Greenland? Study a global map. The value of real estate often rests on “location, location, location,” and the island’s position in the North Atlantic represents growing geopolitical importance. As polar ice caps recede, northern shipping lanes are expanding. The Northwest Passage, a sea route from Europe to the Pacific Ocean through the Arctic Ocean along the northern extremes of North America via Canadian Arctic Archipelago waterways,

is touted as a new tourist expedition adventure by several cruise lines. But the real fascination is with Greenland’s richness in untapped natural resources. A variety of rare earth minerals are essential to mobile phones, computers, electric cars, other electronics, and some sophisticated military hardware. China controls roughly 80 percent of the world’s rare-earth production. Given Xi Jinping’s march toward global hegemony and the diminishment of American influence, no longer can we view China as a benign supplier. Greenland contains massive deposits of rare-earth and other metals, including neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium and terbium, plus uranium, zinc and zinc byproducts. Hence growing interest by America and other powers, including Russia. Greenland is an autonomous Danish dependent territory, population 56,000, with limited self-government and its own parliament, located in the capital, Nuuk, population 18,000. The country depends on Denmark for two-thirds of its budget, the rest coming from fishing and tourism. The government owns all the land; there’s no private property. To build, one must secure a government permit. For $25 million in gold coin, in 1917 America bought our three U.S. Virgin Islands from Denmark as a security asset in the Atlantic Ocean to buffer German wartime seafaring expansion. In a similar vein, the U.S. has had ongoing interest in mineral leases in Greenland, so Trump’s comment was not the bizarre banality some media pundits made it out to be. The WSJ noted that in Nuuk the average price for a three-bedroom, 1,100 square foot flat or house is now $442,000. That in a country averaging two to three months of daylight during long dark Arctic winters. Paradise found? Having been to Greenland, this writer can attest to rugged and dramatic scenery, especially on the western coast around Nuuk and Illulissat. Disko Bay is a wide inlet of Baffin Bay. Giant icebergs calve off of the icecap into the Illulissat Icefjord, and a parade of icebergs is backing up behind an underwater moraine akin to railcars in a train yard. An early morning cruise in a small boat out of Illulissat

in the shadow of the icebergs is a photographer’s dream. The iceberg that doomed the Titanic came from Disko Bay. If Greenland is on your bucket list, check out the French cruise line, Ponant. On yacht-like intimate ships, Ponant runs naturalist-led expedition trips to Greenland and the Canadian Arctic Archipelago out of Reykjavik, Iceland, and Kangerlussuaq, Greenland. There’s no direct air service between the U.S. and Greenland. Kangerlussuaq, population 500, is a former U.S. air base with the only runway in the country capable of handling large passenger jets. Ponant runs charters out of Paris and there is scheduled service from Copenhagen, Denmark, and Reykjavik, Iceland. If you have time and money, you could combine Greenland with a land-based adventure in Iceland (highly recommended!), or even a holiday in Denmark or Paris. Nuuk is not ready for a Trump Tower, but the president’s interest in Greenland is well advised given global power plays. America maintains a strategic air base at Thule, Greenland. China has holdings in the Kvanefjeld mine in southern Greenland, overseen by Australia-based Greenland Minerals, extracting uranium and exotic minerals. America’s leaders should be paying attention, as should American investors in technology plays that depend on rare-earth minerals. China aggressively has been locking up mineral resources all over the globe. We don’t want our technological prowess held hostage to supply shortages and price-gouging involving needed resources akin to the dominance of OPEC in oil not that long ago. We can’t depend on not-so-friendly competitors! It’s a global game. Greenland is hot and in play.

PAST TENSE

OPINION

History found in road names Early road names were often established based on where you would end up if you kept traveling down that road. Chamblee Dunwoody Road is a good example. On that road, you are headed VALERIE toward Chamblee or BIGGERSTAFF toward Dunwoody. Ashford Dunwoody Road was previously known as Chamblee Dunwoody Road and then Old Chamblee Dunwoody Road. Later, the road became known as OglethorpeDunwoody Road, indicating that it led to Oglethorpe University. The Ashford in Ashford Dunwoody came from the W.T. Ashford family, who owned the home and land that is now part of Peachtree Golf Club as well as land extending across Peachtree Road. The Ashfords operated a nursery business on this land. The Ashford home was inherited by Mary Ashford who married Cobb Caldwell and led to another street name, Caldwell Road. Some road names evolve from the name of the owner of the property or because the road was originally a path or dirt road that led to the home. Northland Drive was once known as Ezzard Road, which led to the Ezzard family farm in Sandy Springs. In the 1920s, Ezzard Road became a county road and in 1958 the name was changed to Northland Drive. Mr. Ezzard also began early construction of High Point Road, intending for it to go all the way to Atlanta. When asked why he named it High Point, Ezzard said “because this must be the highest point in the county.” (Sandy Springs Past Tense, by Lois Coogle, 1991). Hightower Trail, which begins along Dunwoody Place and continues past Roswell Road toward the Chattahoochee River, is part of the original Native American trail from Augusta to north Georgia. Much of the trail was not converted into roads because of the difficult terrain, especially for wagon travel. Roswell Road was once known as Roosevelt Boulevard, named for Theodore Roosevelt. Roosevelt’s mother, Mittie Bulloch, grew up at Bulloch Hall. Theodore Roosevelt returned to his mother’s childhood home in 1905, traveling by train from Atlanta to Chamblee and then from Chamblee to Roswell by way of the Roswell Railroad. Roosevelt Boulevard was changed to Roswell Road in 1927. Mount Vernon Road was previously known as Lawrenceville Road, which

is interesting because Dunwoody Club Drive is sometimes identified as Old Lawrenceville Road. Dunwoody Club Drive can also be found on old maps as Hightower Trail or County Line Road. In 1998, Jim Perkins wrote about the name Mount Vernon Road for the Dunwoody Crier. He found that the name was changed in 1926, in honor of the 150th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. This was seven years before Mount Vernon Road was paved. Oxbo Road in Roswell is named for the Oxbo Pants Factory. James Henry (Pony) Waller worked at a cotton factory in Marietta at age 16. In the late 1800s, he started the Oxbo Pants Factory, which began as a cotton mill and was later known as The Pants Factory. (Roswell: A Pictorial History, Roswell Historical Society, 1985). Roberts Drive is named for Roswell Railroad engineer Isaac “Ike” Roberts. He was engineer all the years the railroad was operational, 1881 until 1921. Roberts’ home still stands on the part of Roberts Drive that is on the other side of Ga. 400, between Dunwoody Place and Roswell Road. Roberts Drive is sometimes seen as the Old Roswell Road on maps. Jett Ferry Road received the name because Adam Jett had a ferry on the Chattahoochee in the late 1830s to early 1840s. Nesbit Ferry was first operated by Sylvester Nesbit in the 1940s, leading to the name Nesbit Ferry Road. (The Chattahoochee River Crossings of Roswell, Georgia by Michael Hitt). Tilly Mill Road and Ball Mill Road are names that still reflect the mills that once stood near these roads. If you have a road name you are curious about, write to Valerie at pasttensega@gmail.com.

In The Interest Of Others

SPLASH – Clean water for healthy kids By LEE CHADWICK Guest contributor

More info

One of the first steps in taking action on behalf of others is finding an organization whose work is sustainable. Trying hard — even very real effort — is not Chadwick necessarily resulting in help to anyone; good intentions are not always good deeds. Charities that are succeeding in the long-term, not just in the headlines, are the ones doing work that is well thought out. This broader understanding creates a moral identity for their actions. How can good intentions thrive in an increasingly complex world? Clean water is one of the greatest needs and perhaps the most challenging. Over 700 million people worldwide lack access to safe water. Several charities I’ve explored are working in this complex sector and I am grateful for their work. The highlight result of my research is the excellent track record of the charity called SPLASH. They understand that getting the water to a location is only the start. How to care for wells and sanitation systems after the

Visit: splash.org Email: info@splash.org Mail: 1326 Fifth Avenue, Suite 300 Seattle, WA 98101 placement is done is at least as important in making projects sustainable. My new understanding of good work is that it is long term. Internationally less than 1 percent of water projects have ongoing monitoring, according to the United States Agency for International Development. Consequently, as many as 50,000 water posts installed across Africa by well-intentioned U.S. investors spending upwards of $200 million are no longer operational....at all. It is obvious that evidence of continued success is clearly under-pursued by water charities. Real change requires continued commitment to sustaining the original operational capacity of every installation. A project that cost $1,000 initially to execute may cost $3,000 more in the three years following. It must be protected by providing training and maintenance until it becomes perma-

nently and realistically secure. The problems not anticipated are exactly what breaks the systems. Having the ability to respond to those problems and create long-term solutions is the commitment it takes to generate sustainability. SPLASH has it. They are smaller than other worldwide water charities but their excellent record of sharing not just their successes, but also failures or oversights publicly, means they do not continue making the same mistakes. Those that lack follow up are destined to repeat the invisible mistakes in each new effort. Monitoring and evaluation are not exciting, but they are essential if you intend to change the world.

By installing their systems in existing facilities, SPLASH captures an environment complete with supervision and reporting mechanisms of their own. They target well operated orphanages, shelters and hospitals for children so common care for equipment is part of routine daily practice. Strategic partnerships like this add needed technical support and protection of the equipment. Follow-up care is not growth, so it does not add to the measurable success of new work, but it is the only way to keep that work relevant beyond the period of creation. Innovation driven by observation will make follow up less essential on future projects. SPLASH is honoring all of these best practices.

Local bestselling author talks representation in literature By JULIA GROCHOWSKI julia@appenmediagroup.com ROSWELL, Ga. — The young adult fiction genre has seen a shift in recent years. New York Times bestselling author Becky Albertalli met with dozens of fans Oct. 5 at the Roswell Cultural Arts center to talk about some of those changes and her own works in the genre. Albertalli, a local resident, is best known for her debut young adult novel “Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda,” which was adapted into the 2018 film “Love, Simon.” Before becoming an author, however, Albertalli was first a clinical psychologist, and that experience, she said, has informed her novels. “I thought it was going to be my job forever,” she said. “And then I was moving, and then I couldn’t get another job in D.C., where I was living. So, I decided to try writing a book, and that was ‘Simon.’ It hasn’t stopped since then.” Albertalli said she has kept everything even remotely confidential from her time as a psychologist separate from her writing. Albertalli joined the writing scene a year after the “We Need Diverse Books” movement began on Twitter by Ellen Oh and other authors to celebrate characters and authors of diverse backgrounds. The movement, and later nonprofit organization, was created in response to the all-white, all-male panel of authors at the 2014 BookCon. “It’s such an important conversation to have,” Albertalli said. “There has been

a noticeable and striking change in the industry… I can’t even imagine how ‘Simon’ could have landed without We Need Diverse Books. I don’t know if so many of my favorite books would have existed without We Need Diverse Books.” Albertalli’s books often feature a cast of diverse characters, including the titular Simon Spier, a gay, high school teenager, in “Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda.” But, Albertalli said, there is still a lot of work that needs to be done regarding representation in young adult novels. She added that it’s also important to know when to step aside and make space for authors from underrepresented communities to have their voices be heard. “I get asked almost every day if I would write a sequel to ‘Simon’ from Blue’s point of view,” she said. “That would involve tapping into a specific intersectional, marginalized identity where very few authors from that community have written and have published books by mainstream publishers.” Albertalli also spoke at length about her experience working with Hollywood when “Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda” was adapted into “Love, Simon.” She said she was aware during the process that once the movie would come out, the movie and any of its changes from the original book would become the main point of access of the story for most people. The ending of the movie, for example, is a much more public coming out story,

Continued from Page 16 and Albertalli said she wouldn’t change it. “It was a really powerful, big moment,” she said. “It got a lot of its power from the fact that it was something that had been done so many times in romcoms… But you haven’t really seen that with two gay teen boys. So many other people have taken that moment for granted.” The book’s ending, in contrast, is a more private moment that focuses more on the love story instead of the coming out story, Albertalli said. Since it’s release in 2018, the movie has won several awards, including, most recently, a GLAAD Media Award for

outstanding representation of the LGBT community. The fame has been life-changing, Albertalli said. “It’s very surreal,” she said. “It’s hard to explain what it’s like to go from a carpool mom to GLAAD Media Awards, watching Lizzo performing, trying to get a good picture of Lizzo and somebody’s blocking your picture, and you realize that somebody is Meghan Trainor.” Disney+ is currently working on a “Love, Simon” spinoff that will follow a different character from the movie and book. Albertalli most recently published “Yes No Maybe So,” in conjunction with Aisha Saeed, which is in part inspired by the 2017 Jon Ossoff campaign in Georgia’s 6th District. She is also working on a sixth, 2021 novel that will be based in Roswell and a fictional version of Roswell High School.

The new Schiff School playground is dedicated to the late Shirley Schiffer.

Schiff School opens new playground SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. — Preschoolers and staff from Schiff School, leaders from the Marcus Jewish Community Center of Atlanta and Temple EmanuEl, parents and community members gathered to officially dedicate a brand

new playground. The playground was gifted by Edwin Schiffer in memory of his late wife, Shirley. The event began with Cantor Lauren Adesnik singing songs with the children,

followed by words from MJCCA Schiff School Director Stephanie Lampert. Lampert thanked Schiffer for his generosity and involvement with the preschool and encouraged the children to play and grow on their new playground. She unveiled the new playground sign and its name: “Shirley’s Gan Katan,” or “Shirley’s Little Garden.” Rabbi Spike Anderson paid tribute to Shirley and likened the new playground to a Jewish sacred ground that preschoolers could now enjoy for years. MJCCA CEO Jared Powers gave thanks to Schiffer and expressed his gratitude to the partnership between the MJCCA and Temple Emanu-El. Schiffer also paid tribute to his late wife for her passion and dedication to children and building the school 25 years ago. Seeing the school thrive, he said, is very meaningful to him. He then cut the ribbon on the new playground. Rabbis Max and Rachael Miller concluded the program with their own written blessings and then Cantor Lauren led the children in Shabbat prayers. Finally, the playground gate was opened and the children ran out cheering and excited to play, cooling off with King of Pops treats.

Late-game heroics push Wildcats past Centennial By BOB FISCELLA For The Crier CHAMBLEE, Ga. — It was Yogi Berra who said, “It’s never over till it’s over.” It’s as though the Hall of Fame catcher attended Friday night’s 32-30 comefrom-behind victory by Dunwoody over Centennial at North DeKalb Stadium, a game which had more twists and turns than a Disney World rollercoaster. The Wildcats (3-4, 2-3) appeared to have the game iced away, holding a one-point lead and the Knights (0-7, 0-5) facing a third down-and-28 from their own 30-yard line with under a minute to play. But Zaire Goff connected with Richard Shaw on a 70-yard touchdown strike to give Centennial a 30-25 lead with 47 seconds to play. Dunwoody had just enough time remaining. After two defensive pass interference calls put the Wildcats on Centennial’s 35-yard line, Walt Anders and David Julian executed a hook-andlateral to perfection, with Julian taking the football to the 14. With six seconds to play, quarterback Davis LeDoyen fired a strike to Anders in the end zone to give the Wildcats a two-point lead to seal the win. “Every kid dreams of scoring a gamewinning touchdown,” Anders said. “I was just fortunate enough to be the guy with the best matchup to make a play. The offensive line did an incredible job all night, and especially on that play to give Davis an opportunity to get the ball off. When I caught that ball and fell forward into the end zone, a feeling of pure joy came over me followed by an intense adrenaline rush.” “That was a big-time throw” Dunwoody coach Mike Nash said. “There are a ton of Division 1 quarterbacks playing on Saturdays that cannot make that throw. It was awesome to see it go

SPORTS

Continued from Page 21 to Walt. When you have guys like Tyler (Eith) and David (Julian), they are dynamic and are great playmakers, so they get a ton of attention. Guys like Walt and Jack Hogan are the ones that make our team what it is. They are grinders. They do the dirty work and nobody sees that a whole lot. Same for Jax Warshaw. On our next to last scoring drive, Jax was critical with blocking on the edge on fast screens. He pancaked two or three linebackers on that drive to set up the touchdown.” The victory enabled Dunwoody to snap a 3-game losing streak. It was their third win of the season, eclipsing their total from last season. “In the past few years, Dunwoody hasn’t won close games like this one,” Anders said. “We have struggled in getting over that hump to win crucial games. Last night, we got over that hump, and hopefully the feeling we had last night will carry on in the Dunwoody program for years to come.” Nash said the victory keeps Dunwoody in the playoff race. “We needed (this win) badly,” Nash said. “We have been in need of a win strictly for morale. But this year is different. We needed this to stay in the

We have to maintain focus and take care of business.” Linebacker Cevon Mitchell took care of business. Returning from a one-game suspension from an ejection during the Alpharetta game, Mitchell intercepted a pass, recovered a fumble and totaled 16

tackles, 11 unassisted. “Cevon was a monster,” Nash said. “He is probably hands down the player of the game. His stats were unbelievable. We are pretty good on defense when we have all of our guys.” Next up for Dunwoody is North Atlanta at North DeKalb Stadium, 7:30pm Friday night. It is the final home game for the Wildcats’ seniors. “Wow, I have dreaded this game for

quite some time,” Nash said. “You love all of your players, but every once in a while you have a group come through that is just a little different. This is that group. They are a little closer and they love each other. That is what makes Dunwoody such a special place to live.” Not only did this team develop together through elementary school, but they’ve been a part of Nash’s program from the start. “They are a special group and I do not want to see them go,” he said.
