players everything Southeast Michigan and the metro Detroit area has to offer.”Kensington home of Toboggan and Black Locust South 18-hole disc golf courses was chosen in a bid process for the biggest tournament in the sport Several factors were taken into consideration for the park’s selection including infrastructure and capacity to hold such a large event director of marketing for the

they never had a chance to say “goodbye.” Rhonda Westcott talks candidly about her son’s mental health issues including sleepless nights and bouts of depression as well as the way he would “self-medicate” himself with marijuana and alcohol “Maverick’s mental health issue was part of the reason why he was drinking because it was a way to (supress) everything that was going on in his head,” Sady Westcott said “A lot of people and a lot of teenagers do self-medicate and use alcohol as a coping mechanism.” Giving the eulogy at her brother’s funeral Sady Westcott spoke about the dangers of getting behind the wheel while under the influence “The second you get behind the wheel of that car you are putting your life and others’ lives at serious risk," she said "It’s not about being reckless with yourself but about whoever you may encounter on the road There are so many better options than to get in that car It doesn’t matter if you’ve done it once and made it home fine you may be tipsy driving home and enjoying some music and the next time you decide to do it again your body is being extricated from your car.” Sady Westcott has dreams of becoming a crime scene technician or district attorney someday She is planning to study criminal justice at Worcester State University and plans to attend her senior prom on May 9 Although authorities didn’t do a toxicology report or an autopsy on Maverick Sady Westcott later counted seven empty cans of Twisted Tea and a bottle of vodka in her brother’s room “Maverick did not realize how impaired he was that night,” Rhonda Westcott said He often went to different friends’ houses at different times of the night and day Sady Westcott recounted her brother’s final hours based on information that his friends relayed to her She said Maverick had left the house that night to go to a friend’s house and came back home around midnight “tipsy.” Maverick continued drinking and started playing an online game with friends before going out again around 3:45 a.m to return to the house he had left a few hours earlier Meanwhile he continued communicating with the group on his cellphone ‘I don’t think it’s a really good idea that you’re out "And Maverick was holding his phone out the window He said he was giving them a tour of Northbridge You have to turn around and go home.’ He was saying I’m going 85 in a 45.’ And that was the last thing he said The Westcotts want people to know that Maverick was somebody who was loved by his family and by his friends some of whom were listening to his final minutes and have since gotten tattoos on their arms in his memory and honor They feel lucky that Maverick did not crash into anyone else possibly leaving additional families grieving “A lot of teenagers think they are invincible and if they drive drunk once and make it home they think they can do it a thousand other times and they’ll be fine," Sady Westcott said Death and alcohol doesn’t discriminate against anyone It doesn’t matter how much money you have or how many friends you have anyone who puts themselves in the situation of getting behind the wheel impaired.” held April 19 at Valley Chapel in Uxbridge In addition to his parents and his sisters Sady and Savanna both who are children from John Westcott’s previous marriage;

seeking compensation from Amazon after a delivery driver walked across his freshly poured concrete driveway — despite yellow tape and flags marking the wet surface — causing thousands of dollars in damage Eric Scholz captured the incident on his Ring camera which shows the driver walking through the wet concrete and later acknowledging the mistake The video footage shows Scholz confronting the driver immediately after the incident occurred: "Was it wet paint?" the driver asks in the video I'm sorry about that man," the driver said Scholz said a quote from the contractors estimates the driveway will cost just over $6,000 to repair It's a bill he believes Amazon should cover See the damage to the concrete in the video below: saying there was not enough evidence to support the fact that Amazon did this," Scholz said you can hear the driver admit to stepping on the driveway and apologizing to the homeowner Watch the full Ring camera interaction below: "Why isn't the video showing your driver admitting that he did this I reached out to Amazon to ask why the video evidence wasn't sufficient for its claim process “We’re looking into this and connecting with all parties involved to learn more.” contractors attempted to salvage the situation by smoothing over the footprints temporarily but Scholz said the solution is far from perfect You can see the different levels of concrete," Scholz said this issue goes beyond just damaged concrete To have it marred and somebody just not care that they did the damage is just egregious," Scholz said I asked Scholz if he was hopeful Amazon would help find a solution If Amazon wants to send its contractors out to fix the driveway If they just wanna pay us to have our contractor Scholz simply wants his driveway restored to what it should have been What to do if a delivery driver damages your property If you experience property damage from a delivery driver experts recommend taking these immediate steps: This story was
