CONCERTS
FRANKLINPONDCHAMBERMUSIC
The Jekyll Island Authority and the Jekyll Island Arts Association will present concerts by Franklin Pond Chamber Music the last weekend of July in their historic district's Mistletoe Coage. Saturday, July 31 at 7:00 p.m., the Franklin Pond String Quartet, that includes members of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, will perform Haydn, Dvorak and Beethoven for your listening enjoyment. Sunday, August 1 at 7:00 p.m., the Franklin Pond Chamber Music Student Showcase concert will include music by Mozart, Mendelssohn, Brahms, Kodaly and Smetana.
Franklin Pond Chamber Music is a highly praised summer music program for serious young musicians, with a faculty composed of musicians from the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. The students, ranging in age from 14 to 17, are serious artists who have undergone a rigorous audition process to be part of the program. As participants in the six-week summer seminar, they have the opportunity to receive artistic guidance in master classes from nationally known musicians of the highest caliber from all over the United States.
Originally, chamber music referred to a type of classical music that was performed in a small space such as a house or a palace chamber. And many of the great master composers originally intended their music to be played in these smaller rooms thus making the elegant and historic Mistletoe Coage the perfect venue for string quartet performances.
Tickets can be purchased by calling 1-877-4-jekyll, at the Jekyll Island Visitor Information Center or at the door. Seating is limited - prior purchase is encouraged.

e diamondback terrapin (Malaclemys terrapin) is a small to medium sized turtle found in estuaries and salt marshes along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts from Cape Cod to Texas. Adult male terrapins are signi cantly smaller than females. Seven subspecies have been formally described. Malaclemys terrapin centrata, the Carolina diamondback terrapin, ranges from Cape Ha eras to northern Florida and is the subspecies that occurs in Georgia. Courtship and mating take place in March and April and the nesting season occurs from early May until mid July in Georgia. Nesting typically takes place during the day.
e general sites selected for nesting by the terrapins are located in areas above the high tide with minimum erosion.
Over the last century, populations of diamondback terrapins in coastal Georgia and other parts of their range have been adversely a ected by a variety of human activities, such as coastal development, harvest for terrapin stew, drowning in commercial and recreational crab traps, and mortality on roads. Two to three hundred reproductively mature female diamondback terrapins are injured and killed by motor

vehicles each year during the three month nesting season on the Jekyll Island causeway. e causeway is a perfect spot for the terrapins to nest because it is high ground and unlikely to ood. Unfortunately, the terrapins are not aware of the heavy automobile tra c on the causeway when they cross the road.
It is our responsibility to SLOW DOWN while driving on the causeway during the terrapin nesting season and watch out for them when they are crossing. If you happen to observe a terrapin crossing the road, rst make sure it is safe for you to pull over and get out of your car to help the terrapin across. Carefully pick the terrapin up and place her o the road in the direction she was travelling prior to picking her up. If you nd an injured terrapin, safely take it o the road and call the Georgia Sea Turtle Center at 912-635-4444 as soon as possible.
e Diamondback Terrapin Conservation Project has grown within the past three years. We are now fortunate to have a collaborative e ort with other institutions in the surrounding area. is allows us to expand our research of diamondback

terrapins. e Georgia Sea Turtle Center along with e University of Georgia and Savannah River Ecology Lab monitor the Jekyll Island causeway during the terrapin nesting season. We record the location of each terrapin found, whether it is healthy, injured or dead. ese data have been instrumental in determining hot spots for terrapin crossing and nesting. We have placed 10 arti cial nest mounds in these areas to encourage the terrapins to nest without crossing the road. rough our previous studies, we also determined that depredation of terrapin nests by raccoons is very common on the causeway. For this reason, we have placed specially designed caging on top of the nest mounds that allow the terrapins to enter but not raccoons. is technique has proven useful in increasing nesting success in other turtle species, thus we are hopeful that it will reduce the number of terrapins being hit on the causeway.
Injured terrapins are transported to the Georgia Sea Turtle Center for emergency care and rehabilitation. Additionally, eggs are retrieved from both injured and dead terrapins for arti cial incubation, hatching and eventual release. Over one hundred

terrapins have been successfully hatched out and released back into the marsh. For more information about e Diamondback Terrapin Conservation Project come by and visit the center. Where you can read and learn more about terrapins through our Diamondback Terrapin Mobile Exhibit.

HISTORY

TRAVEL IN TIME By Andrea Marroquin
On Saturday, July 10, 2010 at 2:00 p.m., venture to Horton House on Jekyll Island and skip back in time to the year 1742. There you will meet reenactors portraying Major Horton, a British colonial officer, and his company of soldiers and indentured servants, in a joint living history program offered by Fort Frederica National Monument and the Jekyll Island Museum.

Through a variety of activities, guests will have an opportunity to discover the colonial life of the island in the year 1742. These activities are designed to share information about Horton, his family, his servants, his Jekyll Island property, and their role in colonial society during that life-changing year. John Hunter, the Director of Historic Resources for the Jekyll Island Museum, said 1742 was a momentous time on Jekyll Island. "Horton was placed in command of a new grenadier company of thirty men. His

wife and children finally joined him after being an ocean apart for many years. Fort Frederica was raided by the Spanish. His house was burned down when the Spanish retreated, and his crops and livestock were destroyed!" Hunter exclaimed. "That all happened by mid-July!"
Horton, the first Englishman to own Jekyll Island, built the original Horton House, two-story wooden structure, in 1736. It was destroyed by fire in July of 1742, when

Spanish troops retreated across Jekyll Island in the Spanish Army's final strike against the British. The house that still stands today was rebuilt on the foundations of the earlier burnt building by late the following year.

With the help of his indentured servants, Horton rebuilt. This sturdy tabby house still stands today, one of the earliest remaining tabby structures in Georgia. During the living history program that commemorates Major Horton's efforts to rebuild the island, musket demonstrations, colonial games, food and drink, and interactions with interpreters will offer active fun for everyone.
Watch as Major Horton oversees musket drills, shares tales from the recent Battle of Bloody Marsh, and describes military life in Colonial Georgia.

Major Horton and son Thomas. Major Horton, portrayed by Jon Burpee, was a family man as well as a leader at Fort Frederica in General Oglethorpe's absence.

Horton's servants will demonstrate a variety of crafts such as 18th century woodworking, carding, spinning and dying wool, processing Spanish Moss, candle making, and butter making, which were all skills of the day.

To take a break from such labors, guests can also try their talents in a variety of 18th century entertainments on the front lawn. Games might include such favorites as hoop rolling, graces, sack racing, and more.
Major Horton, who established Georgia's first brewery, will offer his best hospitality, with family friendly drinks. Visitors will be served frothy mugs of ginger-flavored "ale" (ginger ale) or root-flavored "beer" (root beer).

STORY

FAMILY REUNION HIGHLIGHTS PET ORDINANCE

WANDERER MEMORIAL
From July 29-August 1, 2010, approximately 50 members of the Ward Lee family are attending a family reunion on Jekyll Island.

Covers ALL pets including mammals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, and hamsters among others, birds, reptiles, amphibians and fish.
ALL pets are to be under the care and immediate control of a competent person. A pet is NOT in the care and immediate control of a person unless that person
maintains the animal indoors, in a fenced yard, a proper cage or enclosure in their yard, with electronic fence or collar, or on a hand held leash not more than sixteen (16) feet long. Pets are NOT allowed on the south beach. The south beach is defined as the area from the boardwalk at the South Dunes Picnic area south and around the southern tip of the island and north to a point 2,000 feet south of the St. Andrews Picnic area. This shall NOT apply to any animal operating as a guide dog or performing similar assistance for a disabled person. Pets on ALL other beach areas, trails, sidewalks, bike paths or areas other than the premises of the pet's owner must be on a hand held leash not more than sixteen (16) feet long. Pet owners are to immediately remove and dispose of the fecal material of their pet. The owner of a dog, cat or ferret must possess proof of a current rabies vaccination for each animal owned as provided for by the laws of Georgia. For more information, contact Deputy Chief Steve Bolin at the Department of Public Safety. Email sbolin@jekyllisland.com or call (912) 635-4035.

The reunion is a pilgrimage to honor the memory of family founder Ward Lee by visiting the Wanderer Memorial that was established on the South End of Jekyll Island at the St. Andrew's picnic area in 2008 in honor of the 409 survivors of the slave ship Wanderer. The enslaved Africans who were illegally transported aboard the vessel were the last known group of Africans to be sold into slavery in the United States. Cilucngy , Ward Lee, was only 12 or 13 years old when he was kidnapped from his home and transported to America aboard the

Wanderer. Today his family is spread across South Carolina, Florida, and New York. They include lawyers, teachers, travel agents, and more. Sharon Sansaverino and Sheryl Valenti, Lee's great-great grand-children achieved fame as the country's first African American Doublemint billboard twins. With not all of the family able to attend the Memorial opening the idea of a family reunion was born. Initial plans for the reunion include a family picnic at the memorial site and various recreational activities around the island to suit all ages.

Stray animals are subject to impoundment Electronic devices for detecting metals, minerals, artifacts... are prohibited.
Safety tips
The heat will dehydrate you quicklydrink plenty of water; protect your skin with sunscreen and insect repellent; while on the beach, observe tide changes and use caution on sand bars.
Jekyll Island's beach is open
year-round; swim at your own risk. Sand dunes are natural buffers which protect inland areas from tides, winds and storms. Use crossovers for beach access and avoid walking on sand dunes. State law prohibits cutting sea oats. Take only empty shells and dead sand dollars.
Help preserve Jekyll's natural wonders
By law, 65% of Jekyll must remain undeveloped. Sea Turtle nesting season is May to August. Minimize beach lighting Do not approach nesting female turtles. Do not disturb resting birds Avoid the primary dunes during Spring and
Summer nesting seasons, especially on the Island's south end. Migratory birds are protected by law. Be aware of deer when driving, especially at night. Please do not hand feed any animal. State law prohibits feeding alligators.

Beach & bike trails
Jekyll Island has over 20 plus miles of scenic, paved bicycle paths that wind through marshes, along the beach, under moss-draped oaks, and through the Historic District. The Island also offers approximately 10 miles of beach with natural dunes and sea oats. Although the views are often breathtaking, these remote areas can pose a safety issue. We ask our guests to remember that should they have an emergency, response time may be delayed while attempts are made to locate them. While enjoying Jekyll Island and all it offers, please adhere to the following safety advisory: Designate one person in the party to maintain a charged cell phone at all times. Keep in mind when calling 911 that Jekyll Island is a barrier Island and sometimes the 911 lines will reach Glynn County 911 or Camden County 911. If this happens, advise the operator that you are on Jekyll Island and they will transfer you to Jekyll/ Georgia State Patrol 911. Pay close attention to where you are on the bike trail map while enjoying the 20 plus miles of trails. This will become vital in case of an emergency. Pay close attention to landmarks. If you are able to give a landmark, finding your location will be much easier for the emergency, medical response team Beachgoers pay close attention to the beach access numbers that are located on either end of Jekyll's crossovers. If an emergency occurs, the caller will be asked which beach access they used and whether they are North or South of that beach access. Do not feed or get to close to our abundant wildlife population.
We hope you enjoy Jekyll Island and ask that everyone use safe practices.

e Jekyll Island gas station project is underway as the old structure has been demolished and soil contamination remediation is handled. Flash Foods of Waycross, GA is building a modern gas station with a convenience store and a Dairy Queen "Grill and Chill" quickserve restaurant. e new gas station will feature a custom architectural design that matches the Jekyll Island design guidelines. e project also limits impact on trees and only a few trees that were already in poor health have been removed. e standard "Drive ru" window has been eliminated from the design to reduce tree impact and make for a more pedestrian-friendly site.
e many large live oaks that create a wonderful canopy at this site will not be impacted. As this project begins,

Ben Fortson Parkway will be reduced to two lanes of oncoming tra c and the northern two lanes will be closed. When open in Fall 2010, the new facility will o er auto diesel and gas service 24 hours per day, seven days a week. e Dairy Queen restaurant will operate 6:00am to 10:00pm each day and o er a variety of menu items including breakfast.
DQ Grill & Chill
e "Grill & Chill" is Dairy Queen's preferred concept for new and renovated full-service restaurants. Stores are larger than older-style DQ Brazier locations and feature a completely new store design. e restaurant will o er an expanded menu including breakfast, GrillBurgers, and grilled sandwiches, as well as limited table service (customers

still place orders at the counter). ey also contain self-serve so drink fountains, and of course feature DQ's famous Blizzard Treats and other so -serve ice cream desserts. Popular items include sundaes and the blended co ee drink, the MooLa e.
Flash Foods
From corporate headquarters in Waycross, GA, Flash Foods operates over 170 convenience stores in Georgia and Florida. Internally or through other subsidiaries of e Jones Company, Flash Foods distributes its own grocery products and motor fuels with its own transports to its retail locations. It designs and builds its own stores. Nearly all property and equipment maintenance is handled in house.

Entry Corridor
e majestic canopy of Jekyll Island's live oaks will enhance the island arrival experience at Ben Fortson Parkway.
e two major roads - the causeway and Beachview Drive - are both two-lane and provide adequate capacity for existing and proposed development.
e four lanes of Ben Fortson Parkway are presently oversized. e new entry design will convert the existing eastbound lanes into a two-lane entry road. One-lane roundabouts will provide tra c calming and allow steady tra c ow to destination points across the island. All improvements will protect the existing live oaks to enhance the intimate character of the Jekyll Island entry experience.
