Springtime Tallahassee
Welcome President Richard Musgrove & General Chair Elle Mick
W
elcome to Springtime Tallahassee — where many of our visitors tell us that “spring truly begins here” in our Capital City. We want to thank you all for your faithful participation in the past and invite you to join us downtown to participate in this year’s 43rd Annual Springtime Tallahassee Festival. Largely due to your participation, Springtime Tallahassee continues to rank as one of the Top Events in the USA, Top Events in the Southeast, Top 10 Events in Florida and Best Community Event by the readers of Tallahassee Magazine. Our theme this year, What’s Cookin’? – Springtime Tallahassee will set the stage for cookin’ up some good times for everyone. Enthusiasm abounds with all of our Springtime members busy volunteering their time and contributing their helpful recipes to a successful series of events for all to enjoy. We are definitely cooking up some wonderful menus for our festival season, as well as infusing the entertainment necessary to delight the community and showcase our Southern Hospitality. The festival includes a lot of fun, complimentary venues for families and friends, such as: the Grand Parade; Jubilee in the Park; our Children’s Park, always a family hit; and entertainment stages throughout the Jubilee with local and regional entertainment acts. It is one of very few places where a family can pack snacks and come downtown to enjoy entertainment. We have also brought in a fantastic group of Arts and Craft vendors to offer many unique items at “direct from the artist” prices including those that are hand-crafted. Our Seafood Festival will be held at Kleman Plaza where our main stage will feature rising entertainment stars. Everyone should visit our Community Stage

Springtime Tallahasseee
From the Title Sponsor Tobacco Free Florida (TFF) is a statewide cessation and prevention campaign funded by Florida’s tobacco settlement fund. The program is managed by the Florida Department of Health, specifically the Bureau of Tobacco Prevention Program. TFF’s mission is to combat the pervasive problem of tobacco use in the Sunshine State, where each year, more than 28,000 Floridians die from smoking and tobacco-related diseases cost the state an estimated $19.6 billion in healthcare costs and lost productivity. Since its inception in February 2008, TFF has reached millions of Floridians through advertising, grassroots initiatives, social media, and public relations efforts as a means of providing information and offer resources to help tobacco users quit. Smokers and smokeless tobacco users interested in quitting are encouraged to look into Tobacco Free Florida’s FREE quit smoking resources to get help and make this quit attempt their last. Although permanently quitting tobacco is very difficult, it is not impossible. Sixty-one percent of adult Floridians who have ever smoked have quit and there are more former smokers in Florida than current smokers. In 2009, about 58 percent Floridian smokers tried to quit. The following tips will help smokers get started.
Step One: Set a Date
The first step one needs to take is to set a quit date. Once the quit date is set, cigarettes, ashtrays and lighters should be removed from the home, office and vehicle.
Step Two: Get Help
In many cases, treating tobacco addiction requires a comprehensive approach, including counseling and medications. Tobacco Free Florida offers a number of free resources to help smokers quit. Phone: Call the Florida Quitline at 1-877-U-CAN-NOW to speak with a Quit Coach who will help assess the user’s addiction and create a personalized quit plan. Online: Enroll in online counseling with the Florida Quitline, where each user can create a personalized, Web-based quit plan. Visit www.quitnow.net/ florida to enroll. In-person: Visit the Florida Area Health Education Centers (AHEC) Network’s website, http://ahectobacco.com, to locate a local AHEC and sign up for Quit Smoking Now group classes.
Step Three: Keep Trying
“Quitting is only half the battle,” said Kim Berfield, Deputy Secretary of Policy and Advocacy for the Florida Department of Health. “Relapses happen, but it’s important that people keep trying and trying.” Most successful quitters make several attempts before finally quitting permanently. In fact, the average number of attempts varies anywhere from five to more than 10. You can follow the Tobacco Free Florida campaign on Facebook, www.facebook.com/TobaccoFreeFlorida, or Twitter at twitter.com/tobaccofreefla.
