Governor slashes budget items

By Kathy Steele

ksteele@lakerlutznews.com

Pasco County had some hits and misses in the 2017 state budget.

Gov. Rick Scott signed a statewide budget bill of about $82 billion on March 17. But not before he slashed about $256 million in vetoed items, including $11 million sought for the proposed performing arts center at the Pasco-Hernando State College.

However, he spared some Pasco projects including $450,000 for repairs and upkeep at the Baldomero Lopez Memorial Veterans Nursing Home in Land O’ Lakes and $53,500 for the Pioneer Florida Museum & Village in Dade City.

The performing arts center is planned for joint uses between the college and Pasco County Schools. It likely will be built on property near the Pasco-Hernando State College’s Porter Campus at Wiregrass Ranch.

In two prior years, requests of $10 million each made it through safely.This is the first rejection for a project expected to cost as much as $60 million.

“It’s disappointing, but we understand Gov. Rick Scott it’s a complex statewide budget,” said Lucy Miller, spokeswoman for the state college.“There’s always another year we can vie for funds. It’s a fact that we have to look at other options and see what’s out there.”

Miller noted, however, that it’s unlikely to be a private donor with deep enough pockets to foot such a large bill.

Planning for the project will move forward, she said.

The college currently operates a perform-

ing arts center in a 620-seat theater on its West Campus in New Port Richey.The proposed facility would have up to 3,000 seats, and could serve as training ground for college and high school performing arts’ students.

It also has potential for conferences, conventions, trade shows and high school graduation ceremonies.

A 2013 study by the Urban Land Institute found that Pasco lacks sufficient cultural and arts venues, and should consider using revenues from the Penny for Pasco program to support such projects.

Scott also rejected some other Pasco projects.

He cut $250,000 to help reopen the Moore Mickens Education Center in Dade City and $75,000 to restore the historical Capt. Harold B. Jeffries’ house in Zephyrhills.

Way e h t e c i Serv ta Be!

Whether they’re supporting young girls through scholarships to Space Camp, or honoring women pilots who served in World War II, there’s an organization of women that supports the joy of flying in all of its forms.

The group, which calls itself The NinetyNines Inc., got its start in 1929.

It began when some female aviators wanted to have to a long-distance race, said Marilyn Shafer, of Land O’ Lakes, who is a member of the Florida Suncoast Chapter of the group.

“It was supposed to start out in California and go over the mountains,” Shafer said.

“The men didn’t want the women doing that because it was too dangerous for women to be able to get over mountains safely,” Shafer said.

The women decided:“We’re going to do it anyway.”

Through the race, the women discovered how fantastic it was to have the support of each other, and they decided to form an organization of female aviators.

“They sent out formal letters to every licensed woman pilot in the United States. I want to say there was about 129, and 99 of them replied,” Shafer said.

They tossed around some names.

In the end, they chose to honor the women who wanted to be part of the new organization. So, they called themselves The Ninety-Nines.

Amelia Earhart was the group’s first president.

Over time, the group has spread its wings — substantially. It’s now an international organization with about 4,900 members, Shafer said.

“Our mission is advancement in aviation, through scholarship, education and sup-

port, while we keep in mind where we started — our history,” Shafer said.

The Suncoast chapter includes a wide swath of territory, including Pasco County

Hot Rods Country BBQ, a Lutz landmark, closed in 2013, and now a dirt lot is all that remains. The restaurant recently was torn down to make way for a new, unnamed restaurant at Sunset Lane and Livingston Avenue.

New restaurant to take Hot Rods’ spot

By Kathy Steele

ksteele@lakerlutznews.com

A lawsuit shuttered Hot Rods Country BBQ in 2013.

Two weeks ago, the quirky Lutz restaurant, locally famous for ‘swamp bat’ and hot sauces, met the wrecking ball.

County records show the property changed hands in December 2015 when Sunset Livingston LLC bought Hot Rods from Champor Corp Inc., for $525,000.

Winter Park-based Alton Lightsey is listed as the registered agent for Sunset Livingston; Lutz real estate broker Jerry

Shaw is manager.

Plans are to build a new restaurant with an outdoor patio. The as-yet-unnamed restaurant will serve beer and wine, and could have a few barbecue items.

Co-owner Jerry Shaw said,“It’s going to be home-cooked, family style food.”

The beer and wine license received approval in January.

Next comes settling on a restaurant name, drawing up construction plans, and getting the building permits, Shaw said.

No ribbon cutting is set, but Shaw hopes to open the restaurant within six months or so.

“It’s a matter of getting the drawings completed and approved,” he said.

Hot Rods became legendary in Lutz for its offbeat menu items and rustic décor.

It opened in 1998. A lawsuit over debt led to the restaurant’s closure in May 2013.

Rod Gaudin started Hot Rods with a barbecue pit, next to a country store he had at Sunset Lane and Livingston Avenue. He later converted a wood-frame house into the restaurant. Customers walked onto the porch and opened the front door with a water-spigot handle.

Task forces ready to make choices on transportation

By Kathy Steele

ksteele@lakerlutznews.com

Two task forces are grappling with critical decisions on the future of State Road 54 and State Road 56.

The final meeting of the West Task Force was scheduled for March 28, after The Laker/Lutz News’ press deadline.

The East Task Force is scheduled to meet on March 31 at 5:30 p.m., at Rasmussen College.

Eighteen transportation alternatives for the state highway corridors are expected to be whittled down to five alternatives, along with a no-build option.

The Pasco County Metropolitan Planning Organization is the sponsoring agency for what is a three-part review of how to address growing transportation needs on one of Pasco County’s busiest thoroughfares.

The second phase of the review will be a “drill down” into the selected alternatives, said James Edwards, transportation planning manager for the MPO. The goal is to focus on options that appear reasonable and feasible, Edwards said.

But, the next phase likely won’t get under way until mid- or late-summer.

The task forces will remain in place, but Edwards said there will be additional public meetings in the second phase to gather input from the community at large.

The task forces had the first of three meetings for each group in September.

The West Task Force focused on State Road 54 from U.S. 19, in west Pasco, to U.S. 41 in Land O’ Lakes. The East Task Force looked at State Road 54/State Road 56, from U.S. 41 to Bruce B. Downs Boulevard, east of Interstate 75.

Task force members are from the MPO’s

Citizens Advisory Committee, local chambers of commerce, community leaders, developers or their representatives, and residents from east and west Pasco.

In preparation for the upcoming meeting, task force members completed surveys giving their views on the 18 proposals.

Much of the East Task Force discussion has centered on the intersection of State Road 54 and U.S. 41, where state highway officials are proposing to redesign State Road 54 as a flyover crossing above U.S. 41.

Toll lanes also are being considered.

Some favor the design, but others strongly oppose the plan as harmful to the businesses that could be displaced.

“I just want to see them stay at grade as much as possible,” said Sandy Graves, chairwoman of the East Task Force and a member of the Central Pasco Chamber of Commerce.

At a prior meeting, some task force mem-

Free outdoor movie set for Land O’ Lakes

By Kathy Steele

Good times and summer are coming together at the Land O’ Lakes Community Center, at 5401 Land O’ Lakes Blvd.

Family movie night is back — after major renovations at the park temporarily put the park out of commission for users.

A ribbon cutting in August 2015 signaled the completion of a $2.4 million makeover that added new ball fields, a concession building with restrooms, two shelters, new parking lots and a remodeled patio.

And now, at 7 p.m., on the first Friday of every month, families again can grab blan-

kets, lawn chairs and picnic baskets for an evening with their favorite Hollywood stars.

The April 1 feature is “Shrek the Third,” the last installment in the adventures of Shrek, Princess Fiona and Puss ‘n Boots.

The movies are hosted by the Land O’ Lakes Community Center and the nonprofit Heritage Park Foundation.

The movie screenings have been upgraded from an inflatable giant screen to a Jumbotron, with crisper, sharper images.

“It’s a good family thing to do,” said Sandy Graves, the foundation’s president.“It takes advantage of the open space there, without being sports oriented. It’s a nice little venue.”

For information, call (813) 929-1229.

bers pushed for at-grade solutions and greater use of frontage roads to ease congestion at the intersection.

Suggestions also have been made that the CSX railroad tracks could be adapted for commuter stops.

All options are being looked at, including public transit, Edwards said.

About $150,000 in federal grants funded the initial phase, but the cost could double for the next phase.

Edwards said the county hopes to share costs with the Florida Department of Transportation.

“It’s a state highway,” he said.“What we’re doing will benefit DOT.” But, final decisions are a long way off, and presently no construction funds are available.

“There’s time to sit back and reflect,” Graves said.“It’s important to get State Road 54 and U.S. 41 correct.”

Pasco health rankings improve from last year

By Kevin Weiss

kweiss@lakerlutznewspaper.com

On average, Pasco County residents are slightly healthier than they were last year.

Out of Florida’s 67 counties, Pasco ranks 37th in health outcomes, according to the University of Wisconsin’s 2016 County Heath Rankings & Roadmaps tool.

That’s four spots better than the county’s ranking last year, when it came in at 41st in the state.

The rankings are a broad measure summarizing county residents’ health status and quality of life.

Comparatively, Hillsborough County ranked 28th in health outcomes in the last two years.

The main reason for the rankings jump can be linked to improvements in the “quality of life” indicator, said Mike Napier, Pasco County’s health officer.

The county leaped from 45th to 24th in the “quality of life” category, which consists of four elements — percentage of residents in poor or fair health, number of poor physical health days per resident, number of poor mental health days per resident and low birth weight percentage.

Napier noted county residents have reported “feeling better than in the past.”

“Part of good health is people feel good,” the health officer said.“That may not mean they’re as healthy when you look at their blood work or all the things they should be, but if you feel healthy, that’s definitely a good sign.”

Napier hopes the county can rise into the “20s” or the top third of the health outcomes ranking by 2020.

To reach that goal, Napier said the department is focusing on creating better access to care—like a mobile dental bus — and decreasing the prevalence of chronic diseases, such as smoking and obesity.

“The big overarching issues are access to care and chronic disease,” he said.“Then you drill down into that a little bit—smoking continues to be a concern that we have people working on, on a daily basis. Obesity continues to be a problem for Pasco, as well

as the nation. Obesity is just a symptom.

There are a lot of factors that go into obesity, like getting people to eat healthier, and get physical activity.”

According to the rankings, the percentage of adult smokers in Pasco decreased from 26 percent in 2015 to 17 percent this year. However, adult obesity (Body Mass Index of 30 or more) increased slightly, from 29 percent to 30 percent.

In an effort to make the county’s roughly 485,000 residents “healthier,” Napier’s department is working to create collaborative efforts with “nontraditional” partners, such as local chambers of commerce, rotary clubs and private businesses.

Napier hopes these partnerships will have a greater “collective impact” on the community in raising awareness about the negative effects of smoking, promoting better health through healthier eating and perhaps by instituting more exercise options, such as building more bike paths.

“A lot of us are working on the same things, but we don’t always talk to each other about those same things, so we’re trying to bring groups together that are working on common problems,” Napier said.“It’s organized a little better, so we’re all

fund additional activities for the community.

“We’ve got a lot of great services in our community.We just don’t have a lot of great organization to have that all in a way, where you...combine resources and you get more done with two people doing the same thing,” Napier said.

While the health department is trying to do its part to raise the wellness profile of Pasco residents, Napier pointed out that it will take collaboration and buy-in to achieve the desired results.

“If we get into the 20s ranking, it will be because the community came around the idea, and we collectively made that happen,” Napier said.

What’s Cookin’ Eggs offer protein, versatility

Family Owned & Operated Since 1961

Special to The Laker/Lutz News

By Betsy Crisp

Shell’s

S

pring brings an increase in egg consumption across the United States.

Eggs are an excellent nutrient-rich food that also are a reasonably priced source of protein.

Over the years, advice about egg consumption has changed. Newer testing has proven that eggs contain less cholesterol than once believed.

Consumers who have been advised by their doctor to limit intake to only three “visible” eggs a week, most likely have heard they can now enjoy four.

Of course, recommended intake and actual consumption can vary.The average American consumes approximately five shell eggs a week, and that doesn’t count for “invisible” eggs consumed in other egg products.

Changes in lifestyles have led to a doubling of egg consumption over the past 20 years, as more women have entered the work force and people, in general, have had less time to cook.

Betsy Crisp is an Extension Family & Consumer Sciences agent and a licensed dietitian for the University of Florida/IFAS. She is based in Pasco County and can be reached at mcrisp@pascocountyfl.net.

How to boil eggs • Place large, eggs in a saucepan (Be sure they are not cracked; also, to help with peeling later, pierce the large end of the egg with a needle or tack) • Fill the pan with water approximately 1-inch above the top of the eggs. Do not add salt.

• Bring to a rolling boil.

• Cover pot, turn off heat, and let sit on burner for 15 minutes. Add three minutes, if eggs are extra large; subtract three minutes if the eggs are small or medium.

• Drain pot. Add ice and cover with cold water. Let sit/chill before peeling, or remove and place cooked eggs in refrigerator to peel later.

DR. SEUSS WAS IN THE HOUSE

1,090 Pounds Lost DURING 6-WEEK CHALLENGE A recent 6-Week Transformation Challenge at Samantha Taylor Fitness Studios saw participants lose a total of 1,090 pounds.

Earning first place for the most weight lost was Nikki Harper, who shed 18.6 pounds and 29 inches.

“I am so proud of Nikki, and everyone who joined our seventh challenge,” said Samantha Taylor, owner of personal fitness and weight loss centers in Land O’ Lakes and Wesley Chapel. “This group was truly amazing — 19 people lost 15 pounds or more!”

They keep adding more categories to recognize more people for their hard work, including most weight lost by age group, most toned, most visual change and best story.

“Our most unusual new category was created for couples, with our winners losing a combined 47 pounds that they will be celebrating on a free cruise for two (the husbands followed the plan at home),” said Samantha.

She also gave away a second cruise, a part of the $7,000 in other prizes and several Spa Pampering gift certificates to Bliss Facial Spa. The Challenge’s success was commemorated at an Awards Celebration at the Tampa Bay Premium Outlets Mall. A Dash of Salt N Pepper catered the party, and Samantha’s staff made five desserts without sugar, including Chocolate Macadamia Nut Turtles.

“While we always have fun, the true focus of our 6-Week Transformation Challenge is to show people how they can eat healthy and love it,” said Samantha. “Participants can’t believe how satisfied they are with our food plan — they lose weight without cravings or being hungry!”

Samantha’s next challenge starts April 4, just in time for summer and she has a money back guarantee. Get more information about the Challenge at 6weekbtc.com

BUDGET, from page 1A The Moore Mickens school was Pasco’s first school for black students. In more recent years, the school provided adult education, a Cyesis program for pregnant teenagers and an early childhood education program for child care workers.

School officials closed Moore Mickens in 2015 and transferred its programs to other sites.

SOAR, from page 1A The chapter has roughly 60 members, including commercial pilots, military pilots, general aviation pilots and student pilots.

The group sponsors two scholarships a year for girls, in grades four through six, who would like to attend Space Camp.This year’s deadline for applications is April 2.

The chapter also is involved in other educational activities.

“We just finished a Girl Scout Aviation Day over at Clearwater Air Park. Girl Scouts came in.We had different stations.They got to build an airplane.They got to set off rockets,” Shafer said.

The girls also had a chance to learn about experimental airplanes and to see how an airplane is built.

Besides all of that, they were able to climb into an airplane, put on the headphones and have their photo taken while they were sitting at the controls, Shafer said.

Every year, the chapter honors members of the Women Airforce Service Pilots, also

The request for the Jeffries’ house in Zephyrhills landed on the annual “turkey watch” list issued by Florida Taxwatch.

Built in 1912, the structure is the original home of Jeffries, the Civil War veteran who settled Zephyrhills in the hopes of bringing other war veterans with him.

The private, nonprofit Taxwatch group doesn’t judge a project’s worthiness, but singles out projects for a lack of transparency and accountability.

According to Taxwatch, the request for the restoration funds didn’t go through the historical properties grant process.

Another project on the turkey list escaped the veto pen: Scott led stand a request for $750,000 for a multi-modal trail across U.S. 19 in New Port Richey.

Other winners in Pasco are the STEM aeronautics academy at Sunlake High School and other locations, with $750,000; Dade City, with $400,000 for a storm water

known as WASPs, at the annual Fun ‘n Sun International Fly-in & Expo, an event in Lakeland.

The number of WASPs is dwindling, Shafer said.

“They were the women who served during World War II.They flew airplanes, trailing a target for the men on the ground to practice live ammunition training in shooting things out of the sky,” she said.

They delivered newly built airplanes to the East Coast, so men there could use them in Europe,” she said.

“We have very few left. We try to bring each of them that are interested, and a companion, and put them on Sun ‘ N Fun Radio.

We have a luncheon for them, where they field questions,” she said.

This year the luncheon is on April 7.

Besides supporting female aviators, members of The Ninety-Nines have been involved in creating air markings — to help pilots in the air to know where they are.

“They divided themselves up into different sections of the United States, and they would climb up on barn roofs and paint the

name of the town on the barn roof.

“Or, they would put up something on the ground with a mark, to denote their location, if you saw it from the air,” she said.

They still do that kind of work at airports, she said.

“Our big thing is our compass rose. We will do (paint) a compass rose with the cardinal points, North, East, South and West. It’s painted to magnetic north. It has to be approved. It has to be gridded by the airport authority,” Shafer said.

Shafer’s own fascination with aviation began very early.

“My dad was a Navy pilot and was killed when I was 5. He was taking up a plane for a test, and it crashed on takeoff.

“I’ve always been enthralled with airplanes,” she said.

She wanted to learn how to fly, but usually she didn’t have the time or money, or both, to pursue it.

“It’s not cheap to get a pilot’s license. It’s $5,000 or $6,000, depending on how dedicated you are and how fast you want to get your hours in,” she said.

project; Pasco Sheriff’s child protective unit, with $400,000; Lighthouse for the Blind in Pasco and Hernando counties, with $100,000; and $250,000 for a new kitchen for the Senior Elderly Nutrition Program in Land O’ Lakes.

Sometimes persistence pays off.

Last year, Gov. Scott vetoed a similar request for the kitchen. He also scuttled a larger request of $1.9 million for Dade City’s storm water initiative.

At age 50, though, she decided to go for it.

She’s delighted she did.

“It’s absolutely wonderful.When you fly, it’s so freeing. You have your headphones on, and yes, you have contact with the ground. But, you don’t have that cellphone ringing, and ‘Oh, I should be doing housework …

“All you do is think about flying,” she said.

She does regret one thing.

She wishes she had joined The NinetyNines sooner.

“I thought I had to have my pilot’s license first to be able to join. And, that’s wrong.

“You can join the Ninety-Nines as a student pilot, and there are scholarships available,” Shafer said. “The Amelia Earhart Scholarship from our International Office in Oklahoma — if you get that, it pays for everything.”

More information about The NinetyNines Inc., and the Space Camp scholarship, can be obtained on the chapter’s website, FBCG.net/SC99.

HOT RODS, from page 1A

Hot Rods was known for its saucy sauces – ‘Scorned Woman’ and ‘Endorphin Rush.’

Hot sauces tantalized with names such as “Scorned Women,”“Endorphin Rush,” and “Mosquito Blood.”

Typical dishes were barbecue and cornbread. Atypical dishes were ‘swamp bat,’ ‘lizard tail’ and ‘armadillo eggs’ — known respectively as quail, beef steak and cheddar cheese poppers.

State inspectors revealed the swamp bat secret to a Tampa Tribune reporter, though Gaudin’s lips were sealed on the subject.

Several empty storefronts await tenants at a strip mall next to Speedway. The gas and convenience store at Sunset Lane and Livingston Avenue is across from the site of the former Hot Rods Country BBQ.

Academy at the Lakes junior fans 19

By Kevin Weiss kweiss@lakerlutznews.com

Darin Kilfoyl has been on a tear this season.

The Academy at the Lakes junior righthander is sporting a 1.84 ERA with 45 strikeouts in 19 innings pitched — statistics buoyed by an incredible performance on March 3, when the 6-foot-8 flamethrower fanned 19 batters in a complete game, one hit shutout against Victory Christian (Lakeland).

“All my stuff was working,” said Kilfoyl, who once recalled throwing a one-hitter (which turned out to be a home run) in Little League.“I was throwing really, really hard in that game...and the batters couldn’t catch up to it.”

Equipped with a four-pitch arsenal — fastball, curveball, changeup and cutter — the rangy righty has the ability to keep even the area’s top hitters off-balance.

Despite having a sturdy assortment of pitches, Kilfoyl powers the strike zone mainly with his fastball, which ranges from 86 to 88 mph.

His pitch speed has jumped considerably since his sophomore year, when inactivity and recovery from a broken leg led to his primary pitch topping out at “only” 79 mph.

“Before last season...I hadn’t done anything for a few months, so all my (pitching) mechanics weren’t how they were supposed to be,” Kilfoyl explained.“I went back to my pitching coach after the school season last year and got everything back set. In

the summer, I was getting back into the low 80s, and at the end of the summer, I was throwing mid-80s; it’s been going up since.”

His performances on the mound have started to catch the eye of several Division I college programs from all over the country.

Blue bloods like the University of Virginia and the University of Florida have shown interest in the towering righty. Academic powerhouses like Dartmouth University and Stanford University are also intrigued by Kilfoyl’s size, potential and GPA. “They said they know that I can already

get so much better because of how big I am,” Kilfoyl said about college coaches’ interest.“They also like that I have really good grades, so the academics will help their team GPA, or help me get more scholarship money for school.”

His high school coach, John DiBenedetto, noted Division I coaches were fascinated by Kilfoyl’s stature and his ability to further develop.

“He’s still extremely raw,” DiBenedetto said.“He can grow; he’s going to get better.

That’s the scary part about it. He’s finally starting to grasp certain things...on the mound, where he’s starting to thrive.”

Kilfoyl’s long stride and release point from his 6-foot-8 frame makes it difficult for opposing batters to catch up to his pitches or make solid contact.As opposed to shorter pitchers, Kilfoyl’s length allows him to release pitches closer to home plate from the mound, causing throws to jump on hitters more quickly.

“When I was at the (University of) Virginia camp, coaches were saying how because of my length and how weird the (pitching) angle was, my fastball — even though it was only about 84 or 85 when I was there —played out at 89 to 90,” Kilfoyl said.

Currently, Kilfoyl is working to fine-tune his accuracy, and improve his athleticism with the hope of getting stronger to increase his velocity. He said coaches at the Academy have given him tips along the way that have helped him “a lot” in those areas.

This summer, Kilfoyl will have the oppor-

tunity to showcase his skills in travel ball.

The pitching standout is set to play for the Atlanta Blue Jays, an elite travel club for 15 year olds to 18 year olds.

The experience should buoy Kilfoyl’s development and help him become noticed by more college programs, especially since he plays prep baseball at a smaller school.

Since it’s inception in 2003, the travel club, led by Anthony Dye and Steve Loureiro, has produced several first round picks in the MLB Draft, including Tim Beckham (2008), Delino Deshields Jr. (2010) and Touki Toussaint (2014).According to its website, 90 percent of Blue Jays’ players have either received collegiate scholarships or signed to play professional baseball.

“Their (travel club) is different...because they have only one team per each age group,” Kilfoyl said,“because they want to focus on those players and get those players to be the best they can be, whereas other (travel clubs) will have multiple teams for their different ages.”

Kilfoyl is also a standout basketball player for the Academy (9.1 points per game and 7.8 rebounds per game in 2015), but said he prefers America’s pastime, knowing his college future is likely tied to the latter sport.

“Baseball has the edge. I feel a lot more confident, and I feel I know the game of baseball much better than basketball, because I started basketball later,” said Kilfoyl, who’s major growth spurt occurred after he started high school.“Baseball is just who I am and what I excel at.”

Sunlake varsity cheerleaders heading to Hawaii

By Kevin Weiss kweiss@lakerlutznews.com

A summer trip to Hawaii has become an annual tradition for the Sunlake High varsity cheer team.

From June 22 to June 29, Sunlake cheer coach Pennye Garcia and five of her cheerleaders will participate in the 15th annual Cheer Hawaii USA Summer Invitational at the University of Hawaii.

Coach Garcia will be joined in Oahu by Sunlake cheerleaders Taylor Broderick, Lauren Gobea, Maddie Frazee, Hailey Parks and Mikiah Peeples.

About 100 cheerleaders from all 50 states are selected to participate in the prestigious camp each year.

Since 2006, Garcia has sent at least five of her cheerleaders — at every school she’s coached — to the weeklong college-prep cheer camp. She is one of just eight coaches that will be attending to provide additional instruction and guidance.

Each year, Cheer Hawaii focuses on developing four main competitive cheerleading areas: cheer motion and spirit, dance, stunting and leadership skills.

Typically, nominations for the camp are open to current high school sophomores and juniors that exhibit certain qualities such as basic cheer skills, leadership abilities, a positive attitude, and a desire to learn and improve.

Sunlake senior Amanda Slozer, who attended the camp last year, said the weeklong affair benefits cheerleaders who aspire to be team captains and role models

for younger teammates.

“It’s a really good experience,” she said about the camp.“I had a good time.”

With a limited number of spots, Garcia opts to nominate cheerleaders that have shown her leadership-like qualities during their career at Sunlake.

“I choose the ones...that show me individual characteristics that I would be proud of to send to Hawaii to represent our skills,” said Garcia, the 2016 East Pasco Coach of the Year. “If they have any disciplinary issues, they probably won’t get selected, and they know why.”

With camp instructors such as Penn

State’s Curtis White, both high school cheerleaders and their respective coaches learn about advanced-level techniques and cheers they can take back to their prep squads.

“Coach White brings his male cheerleaders and teaches everyone how to coed stunt,” Garcia said. “They all are college coaches that come in and teach high schools how to do sideline cheers and chants.”

Garcia added that Sunlake has altered its entire cheer format based on what they’ve learned at Cheer Hawaii, aligning their squad to perform cheers similar to some of the premier Division I cheer programs.

“It has been really beneficial for us in

competition and for sidelines,” Garcia said.

The results at Sunlake speak for themselves. This past season, the Seahawks had the highest scoring average in Pasco County — 74.51— and finished third in the Class 1A Small Division FHSAA (Florida High School Athletic Association) state finals. In 2014, Sunlake won the Class 1A Medium Division state title.

According to Garcia, the weeklong camp also benefits high school cheerleaders who have aspirations of cheering in college, by teaching them the steps needed to make that drastic leap.

“There’s a lot of Cheer Hawaii kids that go on to cheer in college, and they get a lot of pointers from them,” she said.

Additionally, high school cheerleaders and coaches alike learn several positive reinforcement techniques to use during the season. For example, after every practice, the Sunlake cheer team will do an activity called ‘Celebrations and Reminders,’ where teammates will ‘celebrate’ each other’s accomplishments— like a perfect stunt in practice — and provide ‘reminders’ of what they need to do for their next practice.

Garcia noted the activity is beneficial for empowering her team.

“It’s kind of like a ‘grab you, hug you’ type of thing,” she said, noting that teammates remember each other’s kind words to one another.“It’s just a positive way to say everything.”

For Sunlake, the camp kicks off the summer season, and serves as a kick-start in trying to remain as one of the top competitive cheer teams in Pasco.

Gran Fondo offers a challenging, beautiful ride The Laker/Lutz News Staff Report

C

yclists from across the nation made the trek to Pasco County to ride in the Gran Fondo National Championship Series, which began and ended in San Antonio, on March 26.

The event is one of eight across the nation as part of the cycling series.

The Gran Fondo Florida race had 35mile, 55-mile and 100-mile routes.

Unlike a ‘start to finish’ race, each route had timed segments at specific mile markers.

The cycling route is 100 miles, but there are also 35-mile and 55-mile routes for less avid riders.

While much of Florida is synonymous with flat roads, the bike race travels along Pasco County’s rural rolling hills, with cyclists riding by horse farms and clear springs throughout the scenic route.

The 100-mile course had nearly 3,000 feet of cumulative elevation gain, according to Reuben Kline, president and race director of the Gran Fondo National Championship Series.

The gran fondo format is “less contentious” than other road races, because it eliminates the “peloton dependency,” where cyclists ride in a tight group, drafting off one another to conserve energy, Kline said, in a previous interview with The Laker/Lutz News.

The event helps boost Pasco County tourism.

A 2015 post-event report shows an economic impact of $44, 878, based on the total number of room nights booked by partici-

Fourteen-year-old Courtney Graham, who is Miss Pasco County Fair’s Outstanding Teen, sang the national anthem before the Gran Fondo ride began.

Rebecca and Jackson Beebe, of The Local Public House & Provisions in San Antonio, provided lunch and a beer to those completing the ride.
