WELCOME

FROM THE CHAIRMAN

This year has been an amazing year for the Citrus County Chamber of Commerce and I am honored and humbled to have been the Chair of the Board of Directors. I am so grateful for all of the businesses, individuals, and community groups that have made this year a success for Citrus County.

The vision of the Chamber starts with “to make Citrus County a great place to live, work, and play” and I believe as a Chamber, we have surpassed our own expectations. Our Manatee and Strawberry Festivals were blockbuster! We had so many new vendors and a wide variety of entertainment. Our luncheons were very important and informative in this election year and our mixers were a great opportunity for networking with new members.

Whether during Legislative Days or during Candidate Forums, our Governmental Affairs Committee was relentless in ensuring that citizens, businesses, local and state officials were aware of critical issues in Citrus County.

My initiative as Chair this year was for the Chamber to be a participant with increasing early literacy in Citrus County. I am so grateful that the Chamber partnered with the Citrus County Education Foundation and sponsored their First Library Program. This program enables every Pre-K and Kindergarten student to start their own at home first library.

As I close, I would like to invite you to connect and collaborate with the Citrus County Chamber of Commerce. It is a great resource that will assist whether you are a consumer or a business.

Best Regards

Debbie Reilly

Lu the hippo

The Only Florida Hippopotamus

Lucifer “Lu” the Hippo may be the only non-‘native’ resident at the park, but he is a resident in his own right! Born in San Diego in 1960, Lu was relocated to Homosassa Springs, where he spent nearly two decades starring in movies and television specials. In 1989, the Florida Park Service took over the park and planned to move non-native species out of the state, including Lu! But this hippo had become such a beloved member of the Homosassa community that a petition was created and sent to Lawton Chiles, Florida’s Governor at the time. Governor Chiles declared Lu an honorary Florida Citizen making him the ONLY Florida Hippopotamus and allowing him to remain in the park as a non-native animal.

WATER & WILDLIFE

A crown jewel of the Nature Coast, Three Sisters Springs is a must-see for its crystal-clear waters and stunning natural beauty. This spring complex is a haven for manatees during the winter months and offers opportunities for kayaking and paddleboarding for those entering by water, though access may be restricted during manatee season for the safety and comfort of our favorite floating residents. For those that prefer to stay dry, enjoy the manatees and a beautiful view of the springs throughout the year from the accessible boardwalk along the banks of the springs.

Experience much more of Florida’s wildlife at The Ellie Schiller Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park. This park offers visitors an up-close experience with native species such as manatees, alligators, black bears, and the endangered Florida panther.

tees swimming in their natural spring habitat. The park’s rescued animals serve as ambassadors for their species, providing a deeper understanding of Florida’s natural heritage.

Steeped in history, Fort Cooper State Park is a beautiful destination for nature lovers and history buffs alike. This park offers scenic hiking trails, bird watching, and a glimpse into Florida’s past with its preserved military site from the Second Seminole War.

“First of all, I want to thank you so much for helping my mother during such a terrifying car accident. After my first call with Ashley Baker, she immediately had a game plan and clear next steps for my mom to create a sense of comfort and care. Not only did Kovach Law win my mother a substantial compensation, they did so in such a short amount of time. We raved about the speed at which this was solved and that Ashley kept clear communication throughout. Thank you again, and should we ever go through a similar situation or I come across anyone you could help, I will be sure to refer them. Thanks Ashley!”

—Danny Saldivar Auto Accident and Injury

“I was facing some very serious charges and picked them out of the phone book primarily due to their love of dogs. Turned out to be a great decision. Worked with Ashley and she took me through the process I was facing. She was always available for any question and kept me up to date as the case unfolded. What’s really positive about this firm is that they are a family business. My case was discussed and reviewed with all the attorneys. Decades of experience on my side. Ashley worked wonders through depositions and in the end, got me probation. This is modified probation in which my record will be completely clean after the term. Quite an accomplishment since some of my charges carried up to a life sentence. Can’t say enough good about these folks. My highest recommendation.”

—Big Stan Criminal Defense

“Mr. Kovach and staff were helpful and trustworthy. They resolved a complicated estate issue involving a rundown property, a reverse mortgage, many other creditors, and an out-of-state executor. They shepherded the process with clarity and reliability. The inheritance checks just came through. Much more than we’d originally thought possible! Costs made plain up front; status reports every step of the way. Couldn’t ask for a better team!”

BUSINESS BENEFITS FROM BEHAVIORAL HEALTH

t the Citrus County Chamber of Commerce, we recognize that behavioral health is a cornerstone of a thriving community. Behavioral health encompasses mental health, substance abuse, and overall psychological well-being—all critical factors that profoundly impact the quality of life for our residents. By prioritizing behavioral health initiatives, we aim to foster a supportive environment where individuals can lead productive, fulfilling lives. Addressing behavioral health issues offers significant benefits to the business community. A workforce that is mentally healthy is more engaged, productive, and innovative. By supporting employees’ behavioral health needs, businesses can reduce absenteeism, lower healthcare costs, and improve overall workplace morale. Furthermore, companies that champion behavioral health initiatives enhance their reputation, making them more attractive to top talent and fostering customer loyalty. Ultimately, investing in behavioral health is an investment in the economic vitality and sustainability of our local businesses.

PRESERVING PARADISE

Citrus County is renowned for its breathtaking natural landscapes and commitment to environmental stewardship. Even as we grow and develop, preserving the unique beauty and ecological diversity of our region remains a top priority. Important initiatives and organizations are dedicated to sustainability and conservation, ensuring that Citrus County remains a haven for nature lovers and a model for responsible development.

Save Crystal River is a grassroots organization dedicated to protecting and restoring the waters of Crystal River. Known for its clear springs and abundant wildlife, Crystal River is an ecological gem in Citrus County. Save Crystal River’s mission is to remove invasive species such as the lyngbya algae, and restore native aquatic plants to create a healthier ecosystem for manatees, fish, and other wildlife. The organization has made significant progress through community involvement and strategic partnerships, demonstrating the power of collective action in

environmental conservation.

Similarly, The Homosassa River Restoration Project focuses on revitalizing the Homosassa River, another vital waterway in Citrus County. This initiative also aims to eradicate invasive species and restore natural habitats, providing a cleaner, safer environment for aquatic life.

Citrus County boasts a substantial amount of land dedicated to conservation, reflecting our community’s deep respect for nature. Nearly 30% of the county’s total land area is under some form of conservation management. This

includes state parks, wildlife management areas, and land trusts that protect diverse ecosystems, from wetlands and forests to coastal habitats. These lands provide crucial habitats for a wide range of wildlife species, support water quality, and offer residents and visitors opportunities for outdoor recreation and education.

Three Sisters Springs is a great example of our community commitment to our natural resources. As one of Citrus County’s most treasured natural areas, it is famous for its crystal-clear waters and wintering manatee popula-

In a landmark effort to save Three Sisters Springs, a coalition of local citizens, environmental groups, and government agencies came together and raised millions of dollars to purchase the land and prevent its commercial exploitation.

The acquisition of Three Sisters Springs is a testament to what can be achieved when a community unites around a shared vision of conservation. Today, Three Sisters Springs is managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and serves as a sanctuary for manatees and other wildlife. Visitors can experience

A legacy of Leadership Forms a Future of Success

For the past two decades, Sandra “Sam” Himmel has led the Citrus County School District, recognized as one of Florida’s top districts.

During her tenure, the district advanced in areas like curriculum development, safety, professional growth, financial management, and community involvement.

Sam has earned numerous honors, including the Aaron A. Weaver Chapter 776 Military Order of the Purple Heart Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2020, she was named Florida’s Superintendent of the Year and received the Lavan Dukes District Data Leader Award in 2014. Additionally, she was appointed by the Governor to the Children and Youth Cabinet for the state of Florida.

Sam’s leadership style has been characterized by proactive, visionary thinking. With her recent retirement, Dr. Scott Hebert has been elected as the new Superintendent for Citrus County Schools. Dr. Hebert has served the community in many educational capacities and most recently as Assistant Superintendent.

Dr. Scott Hebert brings over 34 years of experience within the Citrus County School District, having held roles such as teacher, counselor, assistant principal, principal, chief academic officer, and assistant

BOB OSWALD NATURE AND WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHER

Bob Oswald’s love for nature is a lifelong passion, and photography has allowed him to share the beauty of the world around him. After moving from the Finger Lakes region of New York to Citrus County, he was reinvigorated by the diverse wildlife and landscapes that make the Nature Coast so unique. Bob’s award-winning photography, including work featured in Time magazine’s “10 Most Inspiring Nature Images of 2016,” captures the intricate beauty of the local environment. Whether photographing owls from his backyard or exploring the habitats of Ft. Island, Bob’s work invites viewers to slow down and truly observe the natural wonders of Citrus County.

These artists not only showcase their immense talent but also embody the spirit of Citrus County. Their dedication to their craft and to the local community enriches the culture of our region, making Citrus County a thriving home for the arts.

A JOURNEY THROUGH TIME

Citrus County is rich in history and culture, with landmarks that tell the stories of its vibrant past. Join us in exploring a few of the county’s most cherished historical landmarks, each offering a unique glimpse into the area’s heritage and significance.

THE VALERIE THEATRE

Located in the heart of Inverness, The Valerie Theatre is a beautifully restored 1920s movie house that serves as a cultural hub for the community. Originally opened in 1926, the theatre played an integral role in the social life of Citrus County, hosting silent films, vaudeville acts, and later, “talkies.” After a period of decline and closure, the theatre was lovingly restored and reopened in 2015. Today, The Valerie Theatre stands as a testament to the community’s dedication to preserving its historical landmarks, offering a venue for films, live performances, and community events, thereby continuing its legacy as a cultural cornerstone.

CRYSTAL RIVER ARCHAEOLOGICAL STATE PARK

The Crystal River Archaeological State Park is a window into Florida’s ancient past, showcasing the remains of a prehistoric ceremonial site used by Native American tribes for over 1,600 years. This National Historic Landmark features burial mounds, temple mounds, and a central plaza, all of which provide valuable insights into the ceremonial practices, trade networks, and daily life of the indigenous peoples who inhabited the area. Visitors to the park can explore the on-site museum, hike trails that offer views of the mounds and the scenic Crystal River, and participate in educational programs that highlight the archaeological significance of this unique site.

YULEE SUGAR MILL RUINS

HISTORIC STATE PARK

Nestled along the Homosassa River, the Yulee Sugar Mill Ruins tell the story of Florida’s antebellum period and its sugarcane industry. Built in the mid1800s and owned by David Levy Yulee, one of Florida’s first U.S. Senators, the mill processed sugarcane grown on Yulee’s 5,000-acre plantation. Today, the park features remnants of a steam-driven mill, one of the most advanced sugar processing plants of its time, that processed the sugarcane into syrup, molasses and rum. Remaining structures include a 40-foot limestone masonry chimney, iron gears and a cane press. The mill operated from 1851 to 1864 and served as a supplier of sugar products for Southern troops during the Civil War.

HISTORIC DUVAL-METZ HOUSE

The Historic Duval-Metz House, located in downtown Inverness, is a beautifully preserved example of early 20th-century architecture. Built in 1912, the house was originally the residence of one of Citrus County’s prominent families. The home exemplifies the craftsmanship and design aesthetics of its time, featuring wraparound porches, original woodwork, and period furnishings. The Duval-Metz House serves as a museum today, offering visitors a chance to step back in time and experience the elegance of a bygone era. The house is a symbol of the county’s commitment to preserving its architectural heritage and educating future generations about the region’s past.

HISTORIC COURTHOUSE MUSEUM

The Historic Courthouse Museum in Inverness is more than just a landmark; it’s a living piece of history. Constructed in 1912, this Classical Revival-style courthouse is one of the county’s most iconic structures. It was the site of many significant events, including the filming of the courtroom scenes for the Elvis Presley movie *Follow That Dream*. Today, the courthouse is a museum that offers exhibits on local history, from Native American artifacts to displays on the county’s citrus industry. The museum also features a restored courtroom and a rotating gallery of special exhibits, making it a must-visit for history enthusiasts and those looking to learn more about the rich tapestry of Citrus County’s past.

Each of these landmarks tells a story of Citrus County’s rich and diverse history. By visiting these sites, residents and visitors alike can gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the events and people that have shaped this unique part of Florida.

NURTURING YOUTH CREATIVITY

In Citrus County, the arts are not only celebrated, but actively cultivated to help future generations carry forward a rich legacy of creativity, culture, and expression. Through various youth-focused programs, the community is paving the way for young artists to explore their talents, engage in creative expression, and contribute to the vibrant cultural landscape of our region.

For years, The Art Center of Citrus County has been a beacon for arts education and community involvement. The Art Center’s Youth Theater Program offers an incredible opportunity for aspiring performers. Through workshops and full-scale productions, children learn the fundamentals of acting, stage design, and scriptwriting. With a focus on both individual growth and teamwork, the program helps young performers gain confidence, express themselves, and bring stories to life on stage.

A newer but rapidly growing force in Citrus County’s arts community, the Twistid Arts Initiative is revolutionizing the way young people engage with the arts locally. Their twoweek summer theater intensive for high schoolers allows our young actors to dive into acting techniques, stagecraft, and collaborative storytelling through daily workshops and rehearsals. Additionally, their Children’s Theatre Summer Program brings a spectacular musical performance to life for kids aged 5-12. Beyond the stage, Twistid Arts also offers year-round art classes for adults and children alike, covering everything from painting techniques to anatomy. The classes are designed to meet each student at their level and ensure a focused, enriched study.

Through these programs, Citrus County is ensuring that its artistic future is in good hands. By fostering creativity, collaboration, and critical thinking in young minds, the organizations in our community are not only preparing the next generation of artists but also contributing to a vibrant and evolving arts scene.

CITRUS COUNTY CHAMBER OF COMMERCE

The advocacy work of the Chamber

Many think of chambers of commerce simply as facilitators for networking, fun events and business marketing. While the Citrus Chamber is indeed that, it is so much more. Behind the scenes, the Citrus County Chamber of Commerce is recognized by the Florida Chamber of Commerce as one of the top advocacy chambers in the state.

The Government Affairs Committee is an involved leadership group that stays abreast of state and local issues that impact the community. The committee regularly solicits feedback from members about the issues that concern and affect their businesses and employees, which then becomes the basis for its annual legislative priorities. Throughout the year, the committee communicates with state and federal legislators and agency officials, and with local officials.

Committee Chair John Murphy explains, “We know our businesses are busy doing the business of their business. They don’t have time to attend meetings, write letters, and speak at public hearings. That is where the Government Affairs Committee comes in.”

Advocacy has focused on economic development, road and utility infrastructure, workforce development, affordable / attainable housing, property insurance, environmental protection and stewardship, mental health, and issues surrounding poverty and education. Each year during the legislative session, the committee organizes a two-day advocacy trip that brings 100 Chamber and community members to Tallahassee to meet face-to-face with officials.

These trips have successfully helped to promote good legislation and appropriate millions of dollars to better Citrus County.

The Chamber’s Prosperity Citrus Committee actively works with our schools and nonprofit organizations such as United Way, the YMCA, Citrus County Education Foundation, Habitat for Humanity and more to help ensure that our next generation of workforce are also ready to be our next generation of leaders.

The Chamber’s Business Retention & Expansion (BRE) program partners with CareerSource Citrus Levy Marion, as well as with SCORE, SBDC, the College of Central Florida, Withlacoochee Technical College, CORE Business Center, the County’s Economic Development department, and the cities. BRE reaches out to individual businesses in all fields to learn more about how the Chamber can share information about resources and help with individual needs.

As Mark Wilson, President / CEO of the Florida Chamber, said of the Citrus County Chamber, “Show me a strong local community and I’ll show you a strong local chamber.” The Citrus County Chamber exists to serve.

KEN BRANT

Realtor/Associate Broker

HELLO FLORIDIANS!

I was born and raised in Fenton Michigan just 45 minutes from Ann Arbor. I am a secondgeneration Broker/Realtor and I jumped into Real Estate Full-Time in 2005 and never looked back. I completed my broker’s license in 2006, then my wife and I bought a Coldwell Banker Real Estate franchise.

We operated this franchise for the next decade and raised our family with real estate being a huge part of our everyday lives. Soon after, Florida was our calling and I now run our businesses, with the support of my wife Shannon, from both states of Michigan and Florida. I love the thrill of real estate and helping home buyers and sellers reach their real estate goals. Whether those goals are relocation, downsizing/upsizing, buying your first home or adding investment opportunities I am the Realtor for you.

I have teamed up with KW Elite Partners II in Citrus County, because I align with their “Best of Real Estate” philosophy for my current and future clients. If you need someone to think outside the box and work diligently for you then look no further. My goals in Florida are similar to the ones I carried as a Michigan R.E. broker – to know the local R.E. Market better than anyone, to be community minded and driven, and to be your professional through integrity and trust.

I have helped thousands of families work towards their homeownership dreams and I would love to work for you and yours. So, whether it’s the beautiful Nature Coast of Florida or the Heart of Michigan, I am here to be your professional.

Catch up with you soon. If you see me or Shannon around town supporting our amazing Chamber of Commerce events and/or local businesses and organizations please make sure you say “Hi” and say “Hey I saw your Citrus County ad”.

I look forward to meeting you.
