If you like Beer and Germany – you are going to like Oct. 6 in Navarre. The festivities start at Juana’s/Sailors Grill on Navarre Beach with their sixth annual Oktoberfest. There will be beer tastings from beer distributors at different stations with music on the deck from noon until 4 p.m. Admission and a commemorative souvenir glass (while supplies last) is $25. From 2 p.m. – 4 p.m. you can also witness anglers from the Navarre Fishing Rodeo bringing in their catch to be weighed. All of this is a lot of fun. Then – you may want to call an Uber and make your way up Highway 87 to Ye Olde Brothers Brewery.

In the wake of the arrest of a Santa Rosa County school bus driver last week on 10 counts of possession of child pornography, the Santa Rosa Sheriff’s Office is launching an internal Supervisory Inquiry into why it took so long to secure an arrest warrant for the man.
We knew about the arrest of school bus driver, Kenneth Webb, Saturday. He was arrested and charged with 10 counts of possession of child pornography. We saw other reports about the arrest and decided to wait before we reported on it. We wanted to dig in a little deeper than just reporting his arrest. He was jailed with originally no bond but after his first appearance the judge set his bond at $100,000. One more zero on the end of that would have been nice.
