BRCC in Jackson to Host Upcoming ClassesBy Patricia Stallman

Industry partnersBob Hasselbeck, Operations Man-

ager of Cajun Valve Service, Port Al-len, told BRCC’s Director of Work-force Development Johnny Arceneaux, “We create a product. And you create a product.” Then, pointing to machin-ist graduate Warren Gaiennie III of Clinton, Hasselbeck said, “We want to order another one like him! Warren has the work ethic and machinist skills we need. Thank you for our partner-ship and the work you’re doing here at Jackson.”

Cajun Valve hired Gaiennie before the December 17 graduation day. First an intern, the new graduate is now a full-time employee. “You can work and go to school at the same time,” Gaiennie commented. “I learned what I needed to go to work at Cajun.”

Also graduating at the pre-Christ-mas celebration were: Matthew Black-well of Slidell, James Carpenter of Ethyl, Warren Johnson of St. Francis-ville, Tonya Kennedy of Slaughter, and

James Norris of Norwood. Four of the graduates are working. The fifth has been asked to interview at two compa-nies and the sixth is arranging to pur-chase a lathe to use in his business and to make parts for area businesses on a contract basis.

In addition to Hasselbeck, com-munity partners present for the Ar-ceneaux-style jambalaya graduation ceremony were: Jon Craft, President, Anvil Attachments, Slaughter; Tommy Womack, Georgia Pacific Paper Mill in Zachary and Zachary Town Coun-cilman; Joe Howard, Lance Williams and David French, Red Stick Arma-ture, St. Francisville; and Robert Jack-son, Mayor of Slaughter. The partners, who advise Arceneaux on the skills they require of new employees, con-tribute their expertise and resources. In the case of Anvil Attachments, Craft has provided leadership in identifying the content of the instruction and in setting up the shop.

From Slaughter to the Major Leagues and Home AgainBy Patricia Stallman

Tim Corcoran of Slaugh-ter, who recently retired after 17 years as a pitcher in profes-sional baseball, follows his fa-ther, Roy Elliott Corcoran, and his high school coaches, the late Henry Clay Howell IV and Ru-fus Nesbitt, to a seat on the East Feliciana Parish School Board. “Without Mr. Howell,” Corcoran says, “Jackson wouldn’t have had a baseball team. He stepped up.” Corcoran’s maternal great uncle, Walter Davis, who was “born and raised in Baywood,” also served on the East Felici-ana School Board “a very long time. In addition, his father, Jesse Davis, a principal, teacher and coach at Pride in the early 1900s, was a semi-pro baseball

player.” Baseball and an inter-est in education continue to in-terweave in the current genera-tion, as Corcoran’s brother Roy has played professional ball for around 13 years, most recently for the Sugarland Skeeters in Sugarland, Texas, and previous-ly for the Seattle Mariners and the Washington Nationals.

After Slaughter Elementa-ry School and Jackson Middle School, Corcoran graduated from Jackson High School in 1996, where, he says, Coach Nesbitt “took an interest in me and trained me after I answered ‘Yes, sir!’ to the question of whether I wanted to play at the college level.

“Coach replied, ‘Well, you Newly elected East Feliciana Parish School Board Member Tim Corcoran, Slaughter, pitching for Tampa Bay in 2006.

Citizen Expresses Anger at West Feliciana Parish CouncilWell, it appears that once again

our parish council has success-fully stopped, or at least slowed down, much-needed growth in our parish. The Oak Run subdivision (previously Parkview Estates) that is proposed on Hwy. 966 will, when completed and fully oc-cupied, generate approximately $750,000 dollars in property and sales tax for the parish annually.

The main issue against this de-velopment was found in an ordi-nance written in the early 80’s that requires any subdivision of more than 5 lots to be connected to a community sewage system versus individual ones like over 90% of the people who live in our parish have. The state will consider al-lowing individual sewage systems on any lots larger than ½ acre in subdivisions with 124 lots or less with proper roadway frontage. In this case the only community treatment system is approximately 2.5 miles away and would require numerous lift stations and miles of sewer force main. Needless to say our parish doesn’t have the kind of money to do this. Also, keep in mind that the last four subdi-visions developed in our parish haven’t met this restriction, i.e. Beauchamp Estate (1st and 2nd filing), Star Hill, and Clover East, as well as half a dozen more since zoning was implemented in 1984. Some of the same opponents to this subdivision were also instru-

mental in helping to stop another major development in the south-ern half of our parish. Some of the council members believe that this ordinance is much too restric-tive and should be amended. With that said, the Public Works Direc-tor proposed to change the ordi-nance to be in line with the state requirement s. This amendment was proposed to planning and zon-ing, where it was accepted and sent with recommendation for ap-proval to the council. When it was presented to our council at the last meeting, these changes were voted down by a 4 to 3 vote, with Wil-liams, Kean, Young, and Lambert voting to not change the ordinance.

This issue reminds me of the Lambert lawsuit, which started off as the residents not having access to the river. In reality it was all about truck traffic on Ferdinand Street. The opposition against this development is not due to the sewage system, but the “not in my back yard” mentality, no matter what is best for our parish. It is very obvious to anyone attending our council meetings that some of our council members are against

anything that our parish president is for. If the council would only vote like the majority of the people they “supposedly” represent, we wouldn’t even be having this dis-cussion now.

I also find it very strange that the entities within the parish that receive their funding from taxes (Sheriff, School, Fire Dept., Hos-pital, Tourist Commission, and Economic Development Commis-sion) haven’t come out in support of this development. They need to look back at the school tax that failed last year and our sheriff’s recent renewal tax, which only passed by 51%. This ought to be sending them a message that get-ting new taxes is going to be next to impossible, and renewals are no longer guaranteed. Without growth and with our tax base de-clining, reduction in services pro-vided by these entities has got to decline, and with time layoffs will follow.

furbishing, maintenance, metal stock for machining and a mentor for the in-structor.

As BRCC’s Vice Chancellor of Technical Credit Programs, Dr. Kay McDaniel, put it during Wednesday’s luncheon celebration, “Jon Craft’s vi-sion and leadership, and Anvil’s con-tributions, made this class possible, Without them, we could not have held this class.”

Community partners were a critical part in the success of the class. Judge Hal Ware assisted with the set-up of the shop, East Feliciana Parish Sheriff Talmadge Bunch provided inmate la-bor to paint the shop, and the East Fe-liciana Parish Chamber of Commerce provided the paint. The Leadership North Alumni Association provided resume preparation and interviewing skill training.

GraduatesJon Craft said, “Graduates of Jack-

son’s introductory courses learn work ethics as well as the skills of their trade, including safety protocols and blue-print reading. Graduation means that they are ready for the hiring companies to take the training to the next level through employment.”

In the machinist class, students “went from no experience,” Arce-neaux said, “to this”—he gestured to the tableful of products the students had created from scratch—“through 48 days of training.

“These students,” he continued, “have proven they have a skill set that earns them a foot in the door” of em-ployers. “This area has a shortage of workers,” he continued. “We feel that what we’re doing in Jackson is contrib-

uting workers to the pipeline. These six machinist graduates now carry my name and I am selective of those I rec-ommend.”

Beyond what an employer might expect, this particular class “learned to troubleshoot,” instructor Frank Reyn-olds said, “to fix their machines and make parts for them.” One student, Matt Blackwell, designed and cre-ated handlebars, hand grips, front fork tubes, and foot pegs for his motorcy-cle. His goal, he says, is first to land employment as a machinist and then to buy a lathe and a milling machine and start making motorcycle accesso-ries in his own shop. In about a month, he says, his business contact will be up and running: unbridled customs.com.

Another student, Walter Johnson, said he had retired from Georgia Pa-cific after 21 years. “I’d always had an interest in machines and tools.” Then,

after opening his own trucking busi-ness, Right Way Trucking in St. Fran-cisville, he discovered that his new business brought with it the need for machinist skills.

First Millwright CourseArceneaux used the occasion to an-

nounce that BRCC—Jackson will of-fer a millwright class for the first time this February. The class will be a night class and students will learn the mill-wright skills needed for employment in valve, pump and electric motor shops, paper mills, electricity generating sta-tions and petrochemical plants. Febru-ary16 is the first night of class. To find out more about the course and how to register, prospective students may call 225-634-2636.

Repair of Gustav’s damageAnother announcement had to do

with what Vice Chancellor McDaniel

called Hurricane Gustav’s “redecorat-ing,” that is, the damage it caused to the Jackson campus. Arceneaux said he expected temporary buildings to ar-rive the following Saturday and the re-pair and restoration work to begin soon afterward.

More partnersIntroducing Curtis Jelks, newly re-

elected East Feliciana Parish School Board member, Arceneaux welcomed a partnership so that students may choose to prepare not only for college but also for work in a trade.

Also present was School Board Member Tim Cocheran, recently re-tired after 17 years in professional baseball and looking forward to in-volvement with his Parish.

Slaughter Mayor Robby Jackson looked forward to East and West Fe-liciana Parishes making “a good part-nership soon.”

West Feliciana Parish Chamber Di-rector Kerry Everitt said that West too “will be partnering with Johnny.” Part-nering with Johnny appeared to be the name of the game.

As East Feliciana’s Chamber of Commerce Director Audrey Faciane said, “We’re standing on the threshold of something big.”

come here beginning of 7th hour.’

“Every day, Jeff Unay, Pat-rick Allen and I met with Coach Nesbitt, and every day we went through training as though we were on a track team. He worked us hard. We were running five miles a day, doing leg exercises, building upper body strength and endurance.”

While Corcoran was a student at Jackson High, a scout from the New York Mets drafted him, “then talked me out of signing right away to play professional ball. Instead, he said, ‘Go to school and mature physically, and you’ll be gaining, not los-ing.’” The scout was right.

“After one year, one season of college ball at Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, with the aid of a scholarship, my base-ball abilities opened up. I gained in velocity and arm strength, and my baseball skills increased.”

Then the Mets came in ear-nest in 1997.

In the off season, Corcoran says, he returned to the same ju-nior college to pursue a degree; when he was 22, in 2001—2002, he attended Louisiana State Uni-versity off season in Forestry. Then he began playing ball year round, winters in Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Mexico and the Do-minican Republic, and springs and summers in the States. All in all, his 17 years of professional baseball included four years in the major leagues— three years

for the Tampa Bay Rays and one year for the Yokahama Baystars of the Nippon Professional Base-ball League of Japan—and thir-teen years in the minor leagues for the New York Mets, the Bal-timore Orioles, the Florida Mar-lins, the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the Atlanta Braves. He also played one year in the Mexican Professional League.

After 17 years, he retired in 2013, then ran unopposed for the School Board in East Feliciana.

Now, he says, he is in a “time of transition,” considering the completion of a college degree in construction management—he has just finished renovating and restoring a building he bought in Slaughter for use as the Blue Bird Learning Center, which his sister, Amy Manuel, will soon open—or courses in the skilled trades at BRCC—Jackson or perhaps both. Even though his baseball career was successful,

he knows that “No one’s going to pay me to throw a curve ball any more.” Physical ability, sports talent, he says, “comes and goes with the wind,” though it teaches discipline and a work ethic that athletes can take with them into their later careers.

Corcoran believes strongly that schools must prepare stu-dents for academic training in college or, just as strenuously, for a career in the trades, a career that pays very well for workers who are in great demand locally, regionally, and nationally.

“I believe I can help de-velop a strong connection be-tween the high schools and the trade schools, between the trade schools and industry.” Those connections, he says, will ben-efit not only the students, who

will graduate with solid career preparation, but the companies as well, “who will have higher-skilled employees who, in turn, will earn more.”

His own family background includes forebears both academ-ically trained and trained in a craft, family members who also served their communities long and well. His paternal grandfa-ther, Clifton Leroy Corcoran (m. Lydia Peavy, Hammond), who served as mayor of Jackson for a time, graduated from Tulane in pharmacy and owned the Corco-ran Building—and the house be-hind it—across from the Jack-son Town Hall. Tim Corcoran’s father, Roy Elliott Corcoran (m. Barbara Gail Davis, Baywood and Zachary), served in both the Navy and Merchant Marines, at-

Tim Corcoran, Slaughter, on his wedding day in 2011, with his father, Roy Elliott Corcoran. The senior Corcoran was a member of the East Feliciana Parish School Board for 26 years.

Clifton Leroy Corcoran, Tim Corcoran’s grandfather, was a pharmacist who graduated from Tulane. At one time the mayor of Jackson, he owned the Corcoran store in Jack-son, and the house behind it, across from the Town Hall on Charter Street.

tended LSU for two years, then worked for the Town of Slaugh-ter for 31 years in maintenance, while serving 27 years on the Parish School Board.

Now that Corcoran has retired from baseball, he is back home in Slaughter, ready to make a dif-ference for Parish students.

In 2011 he married Jennifer Lynn Corcoran, who is from New Orleans and, later, Clinton. She graduated from Southeastern in criminal justice with a minor in psychology and then completed training as a court reporter. “That was my profession until I got promoted to Mama,” she says, holding Dalton DeWitt Corco-ran, four months, while keeping an eye on Timothy Hugh Corco-

Tim and Jennifer Lynn Corcoran in front of the new Blue Bird Learning Center he bought, restored and renovated for the new day care that Amy Manuel, his sister, will open soon in Slaughter. With the Corcorans are sons Timothy Hugh Corcoran II, age 2, and Dalton DeWitt Corcoran, four months.

Coming home to East Felici-ana marks an exciting time in the

Corcoran family, the couple says, and coincides with an exciting time in the Parish. Describing the enthusiasm for growth in in-

dustry, population, and educa-tional opportunities, Corcoran says, “It’s nice to see the waters are moving.” He plans to help.

By Beth DawSon

The Alexander Stirling Chap-ter of the Daughters of the Ameri-can Revolution conducted an American History essay contest for grades 5, 6, 7 and 8. As the Alexander Stirling Chapter cov-ers Pointe Coupee Parish and East and West Feliciana Parishes, pub-lic, private and parochial school students, as well as home schooled students in the three-parish area, were eligible to compete.

The title of the essay was “A Child’s Journey Through Ellis Is-land.” All of the students received the following information before writing their essay:

The year 2015 marks the 125th anniversary of Ellis Island as an immigration station. On a typical day, immigrants arriving on the is-land could expect to spend up to seven hours in processing activi-

ties intended to determine whether or not they were legally and medi-cally fit to enter the United States. Imagine yourself as a child travel-ing through Ellis Island in 1892. How would you describe your ex-perience to your cousin who has never heard of Ellis Island?

The winners, who received a bronze medal and a certificate, are:

Grade 5, John "Jack" Allen IV of Catholic Elementary School, Pointe Coupee; Grade 6, Abby Fabre of Catholic Elementary School, Pointe Coupee; Grade 7, Joshua Bourque of Slaughter Com-munity Charter School, East Feli-ciana; and Grade 8, Landry Marie Higgins of West Feliciana Middle School, West Feliciana.

DAR judges have sent the win-ning essays on to the state level of the competition.
