Courtesy / Schooner J.&E. Riggin Dating back to 1927 and homeported in Rockland, the Schooner J.&E. Riggin is part of the largest fleet of working windjammers in the U.S. A couple who are both licensed as ship captains are the new owners of a historic passenger schooner in Rockland, and are preparing to set sail this season under COVID-19 guidelines. Captains Jocelyn Schmidt and Justin Schaefer bought the Schooner J.&E. Riggin, a 120-foot ship built in 1927, from Captains Jon Finger and Annie Mahle for an undisclosed price. Finger and Mahle are a married couple who owned the boat for more than 20 years. Mahle was the vessel’s cook, has written several cookbooks, and her food and the Riggin have been featured in dozens of national media outlets.

Focus Daily News Cedar Hill Students Build A Go Kart From Scratch (CEDAR HILL, TEXAS) Cedar Hill High School Welding scholars Anthony Cavazos and Audrick Vega, along with their instructor, Donald Wilbert, participate in a sponsored project.
The scholars participated in building a Go-Kart from scratch using the materials donated to them by Justin Schaefer of Centralized Production, a Cedar Hill-based business.
This project has been in the works for two months, with the crew starting on the project in early December. However, the job has taken longer than expected due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.
“With only two scholars in this class that has been coming consistently for only two hours a day, and sometimes they miss classes due to the pandemic,” Wilbert said.
