Plantation Village Studios Ready to RollThey say the film industry is boom-

ing in this part of Louisiana, and they’re not wrong.

With over 150 films being made last year alone, these quiet Southern streets are going head to head with their flashy counterparts in Hollywood.. Films such as the upcoming Bonnie and Clyde, Maze Runner and Juras-sic Park 4, to name drop just a few.One company joining this revolution is the Plantation Village Studios.

The historic site, located on High-way 68, was once known as the Aspho-del plantation, and in past years was used as a popular restaurant and live entertainment venue.

The last six years have seen a mas-sive renovation and restoration project, to bring back both its former glory - and reinvent it to suit the emerging film market ( and awesome tax credits) in East Feliciana.

It has a juxtaposition of styles-as you drive in, you see the stunning Levy house (built circa 1815) and you begin to feel that southern plantation style calming you down.

It’s not until you look to your left, past the blooming Crepe Myrtle and see the massive, purpose built 10,000 Square foot sound stage (with a 35 foot ceiling) that you begin to see how these two worlds can collide.

The film industry now essentially

have a one stop production shop. They can use the unique Antebellum prop-erties as a location, for that authentic Southern feel.

Two of the buildings hail from the 1820s (inc a rail depot) and most build-ings are furnished with period pieces and reproductions. Furthermore, on site you will find a large and varied 14 acre back lot, with a further 200 acres at a nearby partner site.

Productions can additionally utilise the 20,000 sq feet /six fully furnished (technology equipped) offices for pro-duction, and meetings (catering servic-es are provided if needed) - then watch their dailies and rushes in the 12 seat private cinema located in the historic

train depot.After a hard day/evening of film-

ing, the tired crew can either socialise

around the newly renovated pool, fish by the lake-or simply crash in any one of the 14 self catered cottages (that can sleep close to 32 people) on the planta-tion.

When the film is wrapped-the post production can begin, as the main building is home to a range of produc-tion companies and service providers. Within arm’s reach you can access anything from a 3d specialist to post production, VFX & CGI animation, cloud based data services and editors.

West Feliciana Parish School’s are Gung Ho About School Year

Superintendent Hollis Milton with Middle School Teacher Jodi Knight during staff development session.

Locals Compete at 2013 National Senior Olympic GamesNancy Covington and Louise

Reynolds from East Feliciana Par-ish accompanied by Brenda Gardner, Council on Aging Executive Director recently attended the National Senior Olympic Games in Cleveland, Ohio. The National Olympic Events are held every two years. Of 40 million Americans over the age of 50 only a few have shown intestinal fortitude to challenge the difficulties of their cho-sen sport and finish among the best. Just to qualify you need to prove that you are one of the top athletes in your age category and sport.

Qualifying for the National Senior Olympics is a lengthy process. You must first participate at the District Level and place 1st, 2nd or 3rd. The winners from district events compete at the State Level and must place 1st, 2nd or 3rd in order to participate at the National Level. Nancy Coving-ton and Louise Reynolds won the Gold Medal in their events this year, which is quite an achievement.

Nancy Covington of Clinton has participated in every National Event in Horseshoes. She encourages older people to be active and get involved in exercise activities. Nancy’s re-cord includes: Gold Medal – 1993; Bronze Medal – 1995; Gold Medal – 1997; Gold Medal – 2005; Gold Medal-2007; Silver Medal – 2009: Gold Medal - 2011 and Gold Medal in 2013. Nancy competed in many preliminary games at the National Level and has lost only two games in the last four National Senior Olym-pic Events.

Louise Reynolds of Norwood ex-emplifies what Senior Olympics is all about. She has competed at the Dis-trict, State and National Levels since

1990. Louise was inducted into the Louisiana Senior Olympic Hall of Fame in 2010. Louise is very com-munity-minded and serves on the Board of the East Feliciana Council on Aging. Louise participated and won the Silver Medal for the High Jump in 2011 and won the Gold Medal for the High Jump 2013.

In this year’s 2013 National Se-nior Games Celebration of Athletes, an event that celebrates the incredible achievements of each of our athletes, Louise was selected to carry the flag

for the state of Louisiana. Olympic gold medalist, Scott Hamilton served as host to this memorable event.

What started with just a little more than 2,500 athletes 24 years ago has grown into a sprawling, two week celebration of over 12,000 athletes participating in 18 different sporting events.

Anyone interested in participating in the Senior Games, please contact the Council on Aging office located at 11102 Bank Street or call 683-9862.

Statement of Candidacy for Kevin CouhigWest Feliciana stands at a unique

time in its history. We have funda-mentally changed our way of gov-ernment in order to position our-selves for the future. A future that is not as clear as it once was. We face challenges to our schools and our quality of life with a declining population and tax base. We don’t have the jobs or the housing that our community needs to prosper. It is for this reason that I have decided to seek the office of Parish President, and I’m writing today to ask for your vote and your support.

I’m campaigning for public of-fice for the very first time. I’m not a politician. Or I suppose I should say I have no interest in a career in politics. America’s founding fa-thers believed citizens should enter into public service, work hard and then -- this is important -- leave of-fice. That’s my plan. If we agree on anything it’s likely that we’ve all had enough of politics and politicians.

So why am I running for Parish President? What do I expect to ac-complish?

The answer is easy. Most of my family lives in West Feliciana. My grandkids are in West Fel schools. Every year now we ask our teachers and school workers and administra-tors to do more with less.

That is because our community is getting smaller. Less people, so we each have to pay more each year just to stay where we are. Until we be-gin to grow, until we have more jobs, more houses people can afford, we will continue to get smaller and have fewer resources.

I expect to use my executive ex-perience, contacts and background in economic development and busi-ness growth to make a difference. To put our community on the path to growth, a growth that helps us to have increasing tax revenues without raising rates so that our schools, our

recreation facilities, our library and other valuable community assets have more resources, not less each year.

Lessons Learned Every important lesson I’ve ever

learned was taught to me here in West Feliciana Parish. As a child of St. Francisville I feel privileged to have been reared not just by my par-ents but my friends’ parents as well. St Francisville and West Feliciana are special places. The more I have traveled the world, the more I realize how blessed we are to be from West Feliciana.

Here is what I learned. Keep your word. Be polite. Work hard. Listen to others. And be respectful. Finally, Take responsibility for your actions. If we apply these lessons, I know that we can have growth that will allow us to have great schools, houses people can afford and jobs that our residents need.

A Lifetime of Learning Growing up here, I graduated

from St. Francisville High School. From there I went to Georgetown University in Washington, D. C.

where I received a degree in busi-ness. Then I moved back to Louisi-ana and began raising my family. I served the State of Louisiana under two Governors as the head of the Office of Commerce and Industry, leading the State’s economic devel-opment effort.

Working with industrial com-panies and small businesses from around the country for the state taught me that local small businesses create most of the jobs in an area. Following my time with the state, I became involved in the creation of dozens of companies and thousands of jobs. In my company we like to say we did well by doing good.

Our Legacy and Our Future We now have the opportunity to

building a stronger, more prosperous West Feliciana, keeping the qualities that make us special while building an economy that encourages more of our sons and daughters to come

home and raise their families. I want them to come home to great schools, homes that they can afford to buy, jobs that use their skills, and neigh-bors that love them like mine have done.

Our Parish President should be first and foremost an executive, someone capable of listening, estab-lishing goals, and working coopera-tively to meet those goals.

I’ve spent my life in government and private businesses. I’ve helped create thousands of jobs. That’s what I do. I hope you’ll give me a chance to go to work for you and your fam-ily.

While our future is not assured, I

pledge to give my best to make this vision a reality for your family and mine- for everyone who calls West Feliciana home. I humbly ask peo-ple to vote for me for Parish Presi-dent.

Statement of Candidacy for Tom McVeaTom McVea, long-time resident

of West Feliciana Parish, announced today that he will be a candidate for Parish President in the primary elec-tion scheduled for October 19.

The election is mandated by the new Home Rule Charter that is go-ing into effect. In announcing his candidacy, McVea, a local business-man, says, “The new form of gov-ernment for our parish will bring many opportunities and new chal-lenges. I sincerely believe that my 8 years experience as a West Feliciana Police Juror and 15 years experience as a State Representative best quali-fy me to serve in this important new office.”

Tom McVea is a graduate of LSU, a United States Air Force Vet-eran, and a member of the Ameri- can Legion. He has been an active

and involved leader in our parish for many years. McVea is a member the Feliciana Farm Bureau, the West Feliciana Historical Society, and is a founding member of the Greater Saint Francisville Chamber of Com-merce. McVea a former volunteer firefighter has served as President of the West Feliciana Cattleman’s As-sociation and the Feliciana Forestry Association. He currently serves on the Parish Economic Development Board as well as a Board Member of Friends of Rosedown. McVea, an avid outdoorsman, is also a member of the National Rifle Association, and the National Wild Turkey Fed-eration.

“I am firmly committed to growth in our community. But that growth must come in a responsible, con-

trolled way,” says McVea. “Lack of growth in this community will destroy it, but so will unrestricted growth.” He continues. “As we seek growth and development, we must be diligent in maintaining and pro-tecting the natural beauty and char-acter of West Feliciana Parish.”

Tom McVea and his wife of 45 years, Toni, are the parents of four children and the grandparents of two. They are members of Plains Presby-terian Church where he served on the Board of Deacons and as Church Treasurer.

“In the end, this election comes down to qualifications and values.’ said McVea. “I humbly submit that I offer both and because of that I ask for your vote and support.”

main dedicated to helping students achieve success.”

In order to celebrate success and promote enthusiasm, Super-intendent Milton donated a por-tion of this salary to create a GUNG HO! committee designed to acknowledge and honor the hard work and dedication of employees and students. This committee will work to coordinate celebrations, and provide incentives, and bring attention to special accomplish-ments through local media. Mr. Milton kicked off the year by do-nating Wal-Mart gift certificates to be raffled at the Happi Llandiers

Back-to-School Celebration, and he raffled numerous incentives to district employees for the opening of school.

Indeed, the students and parents in West Feliciana Parish Schools are also looking forward to some exciting changes in the year to come. During the 2013-14 school year, the district plans to imple-ment the following:

• A West Fel App• An online payment option

for cafeteria dues• A 5-period schedule at

West Feliciana Middle School• A nine-week cycle for

student report cards (instead of a 6-week cycle)

• A Performance-Based El-ementary Music Program

• Additional College Dual Enrollment Courses at West Feli-ciana High School

The district is also still cele-brating the fact that they were re-cently awarded the largest grant in the district’s history. The Striving Readers Comprehensive Literacy (SRCL) Grant will help provide strategic support in the form of personnel and resources aimed at helping improve students’ read-ing and writing. Superintendent

Milton said, “This grant will help us put our literacy instruction on a new level. We will be able to leverage our academic programs with the best of the best.”

There is no doubt it is going to be a great year in West Feliciana Parish Schools. As Bains Elemen-tary teacher Jean Woodside put it, “ Wow! There are so many excit-ing opportunities for the 1012-13 school year. Our first day should be amazing. There are few things as exciting as seeing a sea of smiling faces on the first day of school!”
