4 DURBIN CROSSING POND PRESS Happy August Durbin Crossing! Shark week is running on television as I write this, and it reminds me of the beautiful animals that live in our oceans. They also do a terrific job of making me irrationally believe that everything underwater wants to eat me, even if only accidentally. Fortunately, we don t have anything nearly as exciting in our ponds, although I ve certainly done a few double-takes when I ve come across a particularly magnificent Grass Carp specimen. There are a wide range of reptile species that reside in our Florida ponds. Of the various types of turtles, most common are the Yellow-bellied and Red-eared sliders, which are aptly named for their colored markings. These guys tend to avoid people but can be seen sunning on lake banks or concrete culverts. Florida soft-shelled turtles are another common species, recognized by their smooth, flat shell, very long neck, and snorkel-like nose. Lastly, is the Common snapping turtle: the tough-guy of the Northeast Florida turtle species. You can recognize these fellows by their bulky appearance, long digging claws, and powerful jaws. It s best to watch rather than interact with the turtles in your ponds. If you do encounter them (removing them from roads!) it s best to wear thick gloves and keep your hands away from their head- they will bite! Wash your hands as well: turtles can carry diseases like salmonella. Of course, I would be remiss if I did not mention our living dinosaurs: There have been a few alligator sightings at Durbin Crossing, but that is common in Florida. Small gators are harmless, as long as they are left alone. While cute when small, these guys quickly grow used to human company and become less adorable when they start reaching 5 feet in length. Keep in mind it is a Federal offense to feed an alligator. Any alligators over 4 ft in length can be removed by FWC by calling their nuisance alligator hotline. Below that size, their diet mainly consists of fish and frogs. The last of the common pond reptiles are everyone s favorite: the snake! The two types you will find in ponds in this part of Florida are the Cottonmouth, also known as a Water Moccasin, or the Banded Water snake. Cottonmouths are venomous and considered dangerous, while the Banded Water snake is non -venomous and a profligate coward. They are very clever, however. While they already look like the Cottonmouth due to coloring, the Banded Water snake can also change the shape of its body and head to more closely resemble the Cottonmouth, thus scaring away potential predators. The best thing homeowners can do to keep their yards clear of either species is to ensure grass is mowed to the pond s edge and no debris is lying around which might give them a place to hide. --Katie Cabanillas - Aquatic Systems, Accounts Representative/Biologist Jacksonville Division

11 The first day back to school for St. Johns County Schools is Friday, August 10th. We wish all of our Durbin Crossing students and teachers a GREAT and wonderful school year! PLEASE be watchful for increased traffic and sleepy students crossing the streets on their way to school, not only in Durbin but on your commute too. Biker and Walker SAFETY In an effort to keep all of our students safe on their commute to and from school, please adjust your sprinklers to NOT run during school hours. When your sprinklers are on during the day - it forces our bikers and walkers into the streets. To be sure, please avoid 7:30-9:30am and 1:30-4pm. We appreciate your cooperation. 10

12 NEEDS TO BE CRAFT DAY FOR BACK TO SCHOOL! Also will need to be added to the calendar - I am not sure what day it is! 11

13 School Bus Safety! Florida school buses carry precious cargo our children. Motorists should always be alert and drive with caution around school buses and in school zones where children may be present. Motorist and School Bus Safety Tips: All drivers moving in either direction on a two-way street must stop for a school bus displaying a stop signal, and must remain stopped until the road is clear of children AND the school bus stop arm is withdrawn. On a highway divided by a paved median, all drivers moving in either direction must stop for a school bus displaying a stop signal, and must remain stopped until the road is clear of children AND the school bus stop arm is withdrawn. On a highway divided by a raised barrier or an unpaved median at least 5 feet wide, drivers moving in the opposite direction do not have to stop for the bus (painted lines or pavement markings are not considered barriers). However, these motorists should slow down and watch for students loading or unloading from the bus. Be alert and watch for children especially near schools, bus stops, school buses and in school parking lots. Pay extra attention to lower speed limits in school zones. Watch for and obey signals from school crossing guards. Only drive or park in authorized areas to drop off or pick up children at school. Each illegal pass-by could result in a tragic injury or fatality of a student. The inconvenience of an extra few seconds spent waiting for a stopped school bus is insignificant compared to the loss of a child s life. Drivers who improperly pass a stopped school bus commit a moving violation subject to citation and will be required to complete a basic Driver Improvement Course upon conviction. Safety at the Bus Stop: Arrive at the bus stop about five minutes before the bus is scheduled to arrive. Never sit on the roadway or the curb while waiting for your bus; wait in a safe place away from the road. Never speak to strangers at the bus stop or get into a car with a stranger. Always tell your parents, the bus driver and a teacher at school if a stranger tries to talk to you or pick you up. When the bus stops, wait for the driver s signal that it is safe to cross the road or board the bus. If crossing the street, look left, right and left again. Make eye contact and make sure your bus driver can see you as you cross the street. Never walk behind the school bus and stay away from the bus wheels at all times. Safety on the Bus: Know your bus driver s name and bus number. Remain seated at all times and keep the aisle clear. Don t put your head, hands or arms out the window. Stop talking and remain silent when the bus comes to a railroad crossing so the driver can hear if a train is approaching. Avoid any loud or disruptive behavior that could distract the bus driver from safely operating the bus. 12

14 School bus traffic violations can be both dangerous and costly. Remember your bus safety rules, be cautious and drive safely. Let s have a great school year at Durbin Crossing!

31 Florida is the lightning capital of the United States and it is ranked as the number one state for deaths due to lightning. Did you know that lightning kills more people in the U.S. than hurricanes and tornadoes combined? Lightning travels at the speed of light, while thunder travels at the speed of sound. A single bolt of lightning can discharge about 100 million bolts of electricity and can travel as far as 10 miles from a cloud. It does not need to be dark directly overhead. If you can hear thunder, you are within striking distance! It has been known to travel through clear air and strike 10 miles from the storm like a bolt out of the blue! Lightning is actually 5 times hotter than the sun s surface! With all of this knowledge and critical information we d like to remind you of Durbin Crossing s thunderstorm policy. If we hear thunder or see lightning, we will close the facility for 30 minutes. Every time thunder is heard or lightning is seen, the clock is restarted to 30 minutes. This is strictly enforced for your safety! No life is worth the risk! *Stay tuned to our Twitter feed for up to the minute pool closures and Crisp, B. (n.d.). When Lightning Strikes.
