But, voters also will choose candidates running for state and local office in Pasco and Hillsborough counties. Absentee and early voting ballots already are being stockpiled in election offices. On election day, both counties will offer free bus rides to people who can show a valid voter information card. In Pasco, early voting began on Oct. 29 at eight locations around the county.

Hillsborough County wants to reduce recycling contamination. That effort begins with educating the public through an online survey and various focus groups scheduled throughout October and November. A focus group is meeting on Nov. 5 from 10:30 a.m. to noon at the Northdale Recreation Center, 15550 Spring Pine Drive in Tampa. Information gathered through the survey and focus groups will be used to design behavior-based education and outreach messaging to reduce recycling contamination, which occurs when non-recyclable items or heavily soiled items are mixed with clean recyclable items during collection. “We’re basically just trying to get feedback from the public with the ultimate goal of using that information to deliver information to them in a way that’s going to be more impactful for them, and Travis Barnes hopefully increase (recycling) participation,” said Travis Barnes, recycling coordinator for the Hillsborough County Solid Waste Management Division. “We’re...trying to hone in on a baseline of what the public’s understanding of our program is right now: What are their existing habits? How are they disposing of things?” The county’s recycling contamination See RECYCLING, page 13A

SwampFest

bcmanion@lakerlutznews.com

SwampFest, hosted by the Land O’ Lakes High School Athletic Booster Club, gives kids and adults a chance to have fun — but also helps raise money to benefit the high school and other local organizations. This year, the event will feature a new carnival company, said Doug Hutchinson, SwampFest coordinator. “It’s going to be Arnold Amusements. They’re a family oriented, family owned, carnival company. Right now, they’re doing the Hillsborough County Fair down in Brandon,” Hutchinson said. “Last year, we had a little disappointment because the operator that brought the rides, brought just the rides.We didn’t really have a full complement of games … where it makes it more like a fair,” Hutchinson said. Arnold Amusements will bring a full Midway, with games, rides and amusements. The event will last four nights, from Nov. 3 through Nov. 6. Highlights include 24 rides, a magic act, and performances by Stonegrey, Vincent Randazzo, Nunes at Night, DJ Carlos, Nicole’s Dance Center, Show on the Road Tampa and Suncoast Dance. Hutchinson said the organizers talked to teenagers to find out what they’d like, and they suggested a DJ because they want to dance, Hutchinson said. The event will be at the Land O’ Lakes Community Center, 5401 Land O’ Lakes Blvd. SwampFest is an offshoot from Flapjack Festival, a popular Land O’ Lakes event that shifted to Dade City, and then was suspended. After the Flapjack Festival moved, a group got together to organize SwampFest,

SwampFest will feature 24 rides, a magic act, bands, a DJ, other entertainers, food and carnival games. It’s a local event that offers fun for people of all ages, said Doug Hutchinson, SwampFest coordinator.

said Hutchinson, who was the coordinator for the Flapjack Festival in Land O’ Lakes. “We started having it the same weekend as Flapjack used to be. It’s not as big. Our goal is to try to make it more of a community-based fair,” he said. The event raises money for the Land O’ Lakes High School Booster club, but it also raises money for other groups who sell presale tickets. Pre-sale armband tickets for unlimited

rides are $15 each. On-site armband ride tickets are $25. Locations selling the pre-sale tickets are: Land O’ Lakes High School cheerleaders, Sunlake High School (guidance office), Sanders Elementary School, Pine View Middle School, Sugar and Spice Daycare and Beef O’ Brady’s at Village Lakes, Wilderness Lakes and Sunlake. The event has free admission, and generally attracts between 2,000 and 3,000 people, Hutchinson said. This will be the second year that the event will be at the upgraded Land O’ Lakes Community Center Park. Hutchinson can’t wait until the park gets its stage, which will be in time for next year’s SwampFest. “It’s not easy getting some of the entertainment to come out there and play under a tent,” he said.With the stage, it will be easier to persuade musicians to come out to play. The event was initially held at Land O’ Lakes High, but the community park offers a greater degree of visibility, creating a better opportunity to attract people who are travSee SWAMPFEST, page 13A

Man-made wetlands replenish thirsty Central Pasco County By Kathy Steele

ksteele@lakerlutznews.com

An approximately $13 million reclaimed water project is under construction on pastoral lands of a working cattle ranch in Land O’ Lakes. In the next year, 15 man-made wetlands will be created on about 237 acres at 4G Ranch, owned by the Phillips family.The system is expected to be operational in 2018, and will provide the county with up to 5 million gallons of reclaimed water a day. Pasco’s residences and golf courses are among those expected to benefit from the project.The wetlands also will be a resource in times of drought, along with the county’s 500-million gallon reclaimed water reservoir on Boyette Road. It is a one-of-a-kind environmental experiment to turn dry uplands into wetlands that will help restore natural habitats that were degraded from years of well pumping during drought.And, the wetlands eventually will help recharge the Floridan aquifer. On Oct. 24, officials from Pasco County, the Southwest Florida Water Management District (Swiftmud), and members of the Phillips family had a groundbreaking for the Central Pasco County Beneficial Water Reuse Project. “It was one of the most exciting projects I’ve ever been involved in,” said Randy Maggard, governing board chairman of Swiftmud.“I think this will set the standard from here on out.” Reclaimed water for the wetlands will flow from an existing county water main

near 4G into a network of pipes that will deliver the water to each of the 15 wetland “cells.” Each cell will be of different size and capacity, and also landscaped. “We control the water level on each cell independently,” said Jeff Harris, Pasco’s staff biologist and project manager. In addition to the project site, Harris said about 2,000 surrounding acres will be rehydrated. The 4G ranch, he added, is ideally situated between the Cross Bar well fields and the Cypress Creek well fields. In June, Pasco County commissioners approved a 25-year lease agreement in a public/private partnership with the land owner,William Ted Philips Sr. The agreement can be extended for three 10-year periods.The county’s leasing costs for the first 25-year period will be about $2.3 million. Swiftmud will contribute half of the project’s construction costs, up to about $7.1 million. The project in concept dates back about seven years. Work on the agreement with 4G Ranch, and design of the project, began more than two years ago. The long wait was worth it, said Teddy Phillips Jr., the ranch owner’s son. He also is chief executive officer of Phillips & Jordan Inc., the construction company in charge of building the wetlands. “We made this thing look like it is a piece of natural beauty,” Phillips Jr. said.“We think this is a great model.”

For Ethel’s Energizers, the Hearts for Hospice 5K is a way to keep alive the memory of Ethel Dunk, who was a mother, grandmother, wife, sister, aunt and friend.

Hearts for Hospice 5K keeps legacies alive By B.C. Manion

bcmanion@lakerlutznews.com

Ethel Dunk was known for her endless energy, so it seemed only fitting to her family and friends to honor her memory to form a team called “Ethel’s Energizers” to raise money at the annual Hearts for Hospice 5K. Dunk occupied many roles in life. She was a wife, a mother, a grandmother, sister, aunt and friend. Cindy Walker and Barbara Russell, both of Land O’ Lakes, are Dunk’s daughters and co-captains of the team which was named to honor Dunk’s energetic spirit. Both women applaud the work that hospice does to help families. Walker is a nurse. Because of the help of Gulfside Hospice, she was able to put that nursing role aside, so she could relate to her mom as her daughter. Russell said the team that came in to provide assistance included aides, nurses, social workers and clergy. It made a real difference, Russell said, noting she remembers talking to a clergy member who asked her:“If you had one last thing to say to your mom, what would you say?” It helped both her and her mom to say things to each before her mom’s passing, Russell said. Both women said they decided to raise money to help Gulfside Hospice because it needs the community’s support. “The patient never gets a bill,” said Walker, who also serves as a volunteer, but

not in the capacity of a nurse. People often have the wrong impression of what hospice is, Russell said.“Everybody thinks of it as death,” she said. “It’s just so much more than that. It’s just a loving community.” Dunk’s family became acquainted with Gulfside Hospice in 2014, when Dunk’s illness became too much for the family’s health care professionals. “We have developed a bond with our Gulfside Hospice family. We may have lost our mom, but we gained friendships and support,” Russell said. After Dunk’s death in 2014, the family decided to honor her by joining Gulfside Hospice’s fundraising community. They signed up for what was then called Hike for Hospice, but is now known as the Hearts for Hospice 5K, and they launched Ethel’s Energizers team. The team has grown every year. This year, 25 people will walk as part of the team in honor of Dunk, ranging in age from 1 to 85. It’s a fitting tribute, Russell said.“Hospice is not about giving up; it’s about celebrating the end of life.” This year’s 10th annual Hearts for Hospice 5K, presented by Bouchard Insurance, will take place on Nov. 6 at Rasmussen College, 18600 Fernview St., in Land O’ Lakes. Registration and check-in begin at 7:30 a.m., and the 5K walk, run and one-mile fun run start at 8:45 a.m. To register for the event, or create a team and fundraise like Ethel’s Energizers, visit HeartsForHospice5K.org. For more information, call Chelsea O’Keefe at (727) 845-5707.

‘Participating in the Hearts for Hospice 5K is a way to keep our mom’s legacy alive while helping others care for their loved ones,’ said Barbara Russell, one of Dunk’s daughters and team cocaptain.

Restaurateur encounters proverbial fork in the road

By Tom Jackson

tjackson@lakerlutznews.com

urtis Beebe might not be an economist, but time and again he has demonstrated shrewd understanding of the most complicated, most vital of economic principles: opportunity cost. Investopia calls that “the benefit a person could have received, but gave up, to take another course of action.” Confused? I know. Economics is hard. Luckily, we have Robert Frost, the turn-ofthe-20th-Century philosopher/poet, who explained opportunity cost simply and elegantly (and possibly inadvertently) in his masterpiece,“The Road Not Taken.” Two roads diverged in a wood, and I — I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. In short, life is about choices, and each selection contains both a cost and a benefit. Which brings us back to Beebe, who, having analyzed and agonized, hopes his latest decision in a series of headline-worthy elections is low on costs and high in benefits. It’s not hard to like his chances. Not just because Beebe is an analytical guy, but also because he is a demonstrated entrepreneur with a little Beat Generation philosopher/poet in him — Donald Sutherland’s cerebral “Oddball” from “Kelly’s Heroes,” minus the Sherman tanks. Having worked most of his life in IT and dabbled in local electoral politics, in his latest iteration, Beebe (“bee-bee”), 54, is a restaurateur, who lately has added through subtraction. Until about a month ago, he and his wife of 31 years, Rebecca, presided over three east Pasco eateries:The Pearl in the Grove (whose farm-to-fork menu won a Florida Trend Golden Spoon last year) near St. Joseph, Rebecca’s at City Market in Dade City and, in downtown San Antonio, the LOCAL Public House & Provisions. Now they’re down to one, the LOCAL, a hybrid of the neighborhood pub and upscale dining experience. In the space that was once the town’s only grocery store, and after that a coffeehouse, Beebe offers 16 local craft beers on tap and a menu of delights that borrows heavily from the Pearl’s

farm-basket-fresh experience. What didn’t make the transition is the full complement of employees from the closed restaurants. Six came to the LOCAL from Rebecca’s, none from the Pearl, leaving 15 – “Mostly part-timers,” Beebe reports – out of work. The closings also meant Beebe had to negotiate early exit agreements with his landlords. Still, retrenchment wasn’t at all what the Beebes had in mind when they expanded for a third time late in 2015, opening Rebecca’s on the back side of the block that includes Kiefer Village Jewelers and Williams Lunch on Limoges. “That really was a classic case of my reach exceeding my grasp,” Beebe concedes now, tucked into a couch in the side room of the LOCAL.“We got way out over our skis trying to do three.” It’s not that Beebe didn’t love each in its own way, as a parent does children. But, chefdriven restaurants rarely survive when the chef is often absent, and that quickly became evident as 2016 ground on. The IT-guy-turned-high-end-cook probably will miss the Pearl the most. After all, it had turned out to be a rare gem: a destination dining experience that lured visitors from around the region.“Lightning in a bottle,” Beebe says. Opened in 2010, for a while it was all

good. But,“all good” in the restaurant industry has a different definition than it might elsewhere. Beebe calls this the “interesting economic realities of fine dining.” He explains:“If everything goes perfectly, you clear 7 percent.” Seven percent. If the stars align ideally and remain that way indefinitely.That’s cutting it close. Again, opportunity cost intrudes. The sharp investor guys at the Motley Fool can, for a small fee, point out a basket of stocks that, between growth and dividends, project a 7 percent return and then some. And, you have your evenings free. Alas, everything was not exactly perfect at the Pearl, which, for all its allure, was full, Beebe says, only two nights a week. “The Pearl, by itself, was never going to support my family,” Beebe says. And, again, it suffered from his divided attention. The LOCAL, on the other hand, does business

enough to keep the Beebes, including son Jackson, who helps manage the place, in the black. Beebe concedes disappointment that he couldn’t make three work. But, once the decision was made in late September, there was no looking back.After all, he’d been down this road once before, when he shed the business that had been his identity — IT guy — the first 25 years of his working life. For ages, when he’d share beers and stories with other professional geeks, he’d drill down on the source of his career discontent. “When was the last time,” he’d say,“the dollars your client spent on you was highest, best use of their money?” This probably is not a question with which anyone who supplies product or a service wants to wrangle. But Beebe, his 40s unwinding in a series of unfulfilling projects — “The technology never worked, or it broke, or it was complicated,” he says — was insistent. Was this all there was? At the end, he was both self-employed and “very, very underemployed.” Somehow, he found his way into the kitchen, and from that, at an unlikely age, a new life bloomed. Still, and to his credit, Beebe appears to learn from every experience. Having done four years as a Dade City commissioner — time he seems to regard as a hitch as a draftee in the Army — Beebe says he gained respect for career politicians and professional bureaucrats. “They’ve created this process that’s not easy to figure out,” he says, “and they know how it works.They know how to keep things running.” As for him, he has figured out how to be the best restaurateur he knows how to be, and it swirls around a single kitchen in one location to which he can be devoted.And now, when he’s sharing beer from his own taps and hearing stories from his guests, he no longer has to worry whether he’s delivering the highest, best use for his clients’ dollars. Their return patronage says he took the right road.

Hockey complex to open in December

Florida Hospital Center Ice Facility overview

By Kevin Weiss

The 150,500-square-foot complex will be the largest ice sports facility in the southeastern United States.

kweiss@lakerlutznews.com

It’s almost here. The highly-anticipated Florida Hospital Center Ice hockey complex is slated to open in mid-December. According to Gordie Zimmermann, a developer with Z Mitch, the complex’s “soft opening” may occur somewhere between Dec. 10 and Dec. 15. The facility’s grand opening, he said, will likely be held sometime in early January. In May, officials said the 150,500-squarefoot complex would open in late October. But, weather setbacks and technological hurdles has delayed the $20 million project, at 3173 Cypress Ridge Road in Wesley Chapel. Now, the complex is undergoing a “fourto-five week” project-commissioning period. “There’s a lot of things that have to happen,” Zimmermann said of the commissioning period. “There’s a lot of flushing of the big, main pipes.Then they’ve got to test all the controls, and all the motors and compressors.” The complex operates off a single refrigeration package, which also serves as a dehumidification system.The process is multifaceted, Zimmermann said. “The whole system is connected,” Zimmermann said,“so in order for it to be running like a charm, everything has to balance — the ice on all the rinks, (and) the dehumidifiers.” Zimmermann, who helped develop the Ice Sports Forum in Brandon, added it typically takes about three to four days to finish a sheet of ice for each rink.

ELECTION, from page 1A Voting is a “three-legged stool,” with options of casting a vote-by-mail ballot, early voting or day-of voting, Corley said. More and more people at each election cycle are opting for vote-by-mail or early voting, he said. But, that doesn’t mean significant increases in registered voters. Instead, he said, “It spreads the vote around.” As of Oct. 31, nearly 76,000 votes were cast by mail-in or early voting. Republicans accounted for more than 32,000 votes; Democrats, nearly 27,000, and others, more than 16,000. Early voting in Hillsborough also is underway with 16 polling stations opening on Oct. 24.Voting is from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., daily until Nov. 6 (Sunday) at 7 p.m. Nearly 845,000 people are registered voters in Hillsborough, with about 334,000 registered as Democrats, 267,000 as Republicans, and 244,000 as others. Hillsborough’s election office mailed out more than 170,000 ballots. As of Oct. 31, more than 242,000 ballots had been cast, both mail-in and early voting.About 105,000 were from Democrats; nearly 90,000 from Republicans and about 48,000 from others. “Right now, it looks like the turnout is tracking to what it was in 2012,” said Gerri Kramer, spokeswoman for the Hillsborough elections office. In addition to the presidential vote, the election will decide representation for local offices including county commission, the Florida legislature and property appraiser.

And now, he said,“It’s my calling.” Lloyd soon will step into the role of Jack in the New Tampa Players’ production of “Into The Woods.” The Stephen Sondheim Broadway musical played across the country in movie theaters last year, with a cast including Meryl Streep, Emily Blount and James Corden. In two acts, the musical intertwines fairy tales including Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Cinderella, and Jack and the Beanstalk. The central plot revolves around a witch’s curse and a quest by the town baker and his wife to bear a child. Alas, wishes that come true aren’t always the blessings they seem to be. “It will be a surprising journey,” said G. Frank Meekins, the theater group’s artistic director and the musical director for “Into the Woods.” “I think there is a newfound interest because of the movie for people who may not have known about it,” Meekens said. Jarrett Koski, who performs as the baker,

SWAMPFEST, from page 1A eling past the event, he said. Proceeds from SwampFest are used by the booster club to benefit students at Land O’ Lakes High. “For the first five years, we put pretty much all of our money that we made off of SwampFest into upgrading the weight room,” Hutchinson said. The boosters also paid for the school’s blue and gold marquee sign.

“The first thing that’s really going to happen in a big way here is the skating,” Zimmermann said. “We have some big group events that are scheduling with us, and then shortly into the February timeframe, we have a lot of tournaments starting up and running all the way through July.” While membership COURTESY OF FLORIDA HOSPITAL CENTER ICE and league fees are not The Florida Hospital Center Ice hockey complex is set to open yet readily available, in mid-December.

Staff writers with The Laker/Lutz News will be out and about at polling sites on Nov. 8, finding out what’s on the minds of voters as they cast ballots in a momentous presidential election, and also make choices in state and local elections. A story on the election will be published in the Nov. 16 edition of The Laker/Lutz News.

There also are constitutional amendments on the ballot, including two controversial ones. Amendment 1 deals with solar power. Supporters say it will boost the solar industry while also protecting the pocketbooks of people who opt not to use solar. Opponents say the solar industry has crafted a deceptive amendment that appears friendly to solar but, in effect, will give existing utility companies veto power over rules governing alternative energy competitors. Amendment 2, if approved, would expand the use of an existing law permitting medical marijuana. Supporters say it will help patients with chronic and debilitating illnesses, and provide tax revenues to state and local governments. Opponents say the amendment would open the door to misuse of marijuana, recreational uses, and increase the crime rate.

is also the show’s choreographer. In his role as Jack, Lloyd is a poor farm boy whose mother sends him to town to sell their cow, Milky White. Lloyd finds it easy to relate to Jack. “I like his spontaneous spunk and his attitude especially as far as being able to put my personality into the character,” Lloyd said. Lloyd currently is a freshman at PascoHernando State College, where he hopes to earn a theater arts degree. He has performed in musicals at Sunlake High School, and at Dreamhouse Theatre in Lutz. Among his early roles was Gaston, the villainous suitor of Belle, in “Beauty and the Beast.” “That’s when we discovered my baritone voice,” Lloyd said. While rehearsing for “Into the Woods,” he also was performing on weekends as the dentist in Dreamhouse’s production of “Little Shop of Horrors.” Lloyd also sang the National Anthem in opening ceremonies for a Tampa Bay Rays’ baseball game at Tropicana Field. Lloyd isn’t sure what his future holds, but he plans to stick with the theater — perhaps as a performer, stage manager, set designer or teacher. “I’ll do anything related to my passion,” he said. “That’s a nice sign, and it was definitely overdue,” he said, estimating its cost at about $12,000. The event is now in its seventh year, having skipped one year because of construction at the park. It’s the kind of event that brings people together, Hutchinson said. “The year that we didn’t have it, everybody was complaining because that’s kind of their annual alumni get-together,” he said.

RECYCLING, from page 1A rate is about 19 percent, Barnes said.The national average is reportedly about 16 percent. “For every 100 tons we bring in, about 19 of those tons end up having to go back to our waste energy facility to be incinerated,” Barnes explained. “That could be people throwing in an actual bag of garbage...or it could be things that people presume to be recyclable, but aren’t in our program.” Barnes noted county residents and businesses often try to recycle items such as construction and demolition debris, yard waste and scrap metals. “Those things can’t be recovered by our single-stream (recycling) program,” said Barnes.“Those items are problematic because they get into our sorting equipment...and basically end up shutting down the whole line.A couple times a day, we’ve got to physically remove and cut that stuff out of the sorting line. In that whole time, we’re losing productivity and the ability to recycle more tonnage in a given day.” The county introduced automated curbside single-stream recycling in October 2013.The program has resulted in an 82 percent increase in recycling tons collected. The current average tons per year of recyclables rose to 64,000 in 2016. Program recyclables should be placed in the blue cart clean, dry and unbagged to ensure proper sorting. Officials say a good rule of thumb is “when in doubt, throw it out.” Survey links, focus group schedules, and registrations are available at HCFLGov.net/RecyclingSurvey. For more information on the county’s recycling program, visit HCFLGov.net/Recycling.

Tennis pro wants to grow sport in Pasco By Kevin Weiss

kweiss@lakerlutznews.com

Jeanette Marcus wants tennis to flourish in east Pasco County. Marcus, a certified USPTA (United State Professional Tennis Association) instructor, operates the Dade-City based Tennis 4 U/Tennis Para Ti Inc. The 56-year-old Marcus, a bilingual instructor, offers developmental and intermediate lessons for both youth and adults at her two-acre tennis facility, 35949 Bozeman Road in Dade City. For novices, she teaches the “basics,” including proper racket grip, groundstrokes, serves, singles and doubles strategy, and court etiquette. For more avid players, she remedies shoddy technique. Her youngest client is four years old. Her oldest? 89. “The biggest thing with tennis,” she said,“is you have to have fun.” Marcus, also a former assistant pro at Lake Jovita, says east Pasco is lacking in public tennis programs and opportunities — especially for underprivileged youth. “It’s like there’s nothing here,” said Marcus, who moved to Dade City from Lutz about eight years ago.“Pasco is very limited.” One problem, Marcus said, is the lack of public tennis courts throughout east Pasco. “When you get into central Pasco and east Pasco, the parks (department) doesn’t recognize putting the money in courts,” she said.“Dade City has two courts,Wesley Chapel has four courts and Zephyrhills has five courts.” The absence of USTA (United States Tennis Association)-sanctioned programming and leagues, too, is another issue. “You’ve got to be a member at all these (country) clubs to be able to play on a league,” Marcus said.“A lot of the kids that I teach can’t join a country club. If you cannot afford to pay a membership at a country club, you don’t have an opportunity to play.” Despite living in Dade City, Marcus — along with fellow tennis buddies — often travels to Hillsborough County to find open courts.

SAINT LEO NAMES NEW TENNIS COACH Chad Berryhill, who once captured a national championship as head coach at Hillsborough Community College (HCC), was named the new head men’s and women’s tennis coach at Saint Leo University. Berryhill replaces Pablo Montana, who abruptly resigned in September after being hired in August. Berryhill spent the Chad Berryhill past four years coaching at Ferris State (Michigan) University, where he guided the program — his alma mater — to the Final Four of the 2016 NCAA Division II Men’s Tennis Championship. Prior to accepting the position at Ferris State, Berryhill was an assistant coach and recruiting coordinator at the University of Central Florida from 2010-2012. Berryhill began his coaching career as the head women’s tennis coach at HCC in 2005. His five-year stint at HCC was highlighted by leading the Lady Hawks to the 2008 National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) National Championship, and reaching the championships in 2006, 2007, and 2009. “Chad Berryhill brings all the qualities that we were looking for in the next mentor for Saint Leo tennis,” Saint Leo athletic director Francis X. Reidy said, in a release. “His championship experience at the Division II level demonstrated ability to recruit and develop talent at the highest level, and his knowledge of the larger Florida tennis community will give Chad a head start at ensuring Saint Leo remains at the forefront of NCAA Division II men’s and women’s tennis.”

“Lutz has well-maintained courts, they have lights, and there’s always somebody on them,” said Marcus, who also drives to Hillsborough Community College and Davis Islands for matches. She added:“I’ve been working for years trying to get a new tennis center to east Pasco.” Her wish may soon be a reality. In Zephyrhills, plans are underway to construct a 10-court tennis facility on 4.7 acres of land at the District at Abbott’s Square. The estimated $1.9 million project will likely be funded over the next two fiscal years, according to Todd Vande Berg, planning director for the city of Zephyrhills. Half the courts will have Har-Tru, a brand of clay surfaces,Vande Berg said. “A lot of facilities are going more towards the soft courts versus the hard courts,” the planning director said.“It’s so much easier on the body — the joints.” The facility, Vande Berg added, will open the door for additional tennis opportunities and events, including USTA-sanctioned tournaments. “The goal is to develop comprehensive tennis programs, and have memberships and league play,” he said. The forthcoming project has Marcus excited. “When Zephyrhills builds this, it’s going to be nice,” she said.“You’ve got to have a court where your kids can practice on.” One request of hers is roofing. “The rain is a very frustrating thing,” Marcus said.“I don’t consider tennis to be an outdoor sport anymore. Our big, big events — the U.S. Open in New York, the French Open, Wimbledon — they’ve all had to make indoor courts.” Vande Berg said partially covered courts are a possibility if partnerships are forged between local steel and aluminum companies. “It would really be a windfall, especially in Florida with the rain that we get,” he said.“There would be demand. ...There’s a cost, but there’s a real opportunity there.” Funding options for the tennis facility include recreation impact fees, Penny for Pasco, various USTA grants, and partnerships with Pasco County Parks and Recreation and Pasco County Tourism.

LAND O’ LAKES HIGH BASEBALL STANDOUT COMMITS TO SAINT LEO Lance McCabe Sargent, a senior righthanded pitcher for Land O’ Lakes High School, has verbally committed to play baseball at Saint Leo University, a Division II school.

St. Armands Circle: A day tripper’s delight Worth the Trip By Kathy Steele

ksteele@lakerlutznews.com

visit to Sarasota isn’t complete without a stroll around trendy St.Armands Circle. Go round and round on a journey through St. Armands’ boutiques, restaurants and galleries, doled out to sidewalk strollers with all the casual charm and kitschy pleasures of Old Florida. But, with a fashion-forward zest for life. It’s also the right spot to soak up fun ’n the sun at Lido Beach, only a quick swirl motoring through St.Armands roundabout. Or, leave the car behind and take an easy halfmile walk from St.Armands to the beach — and back again for more shopping and dining. Day trippers, tourists and Sarasota natives all find their way to St.Armands. Austrians Max Sambs and Sabine Balleitner passed up Miami to spend their Florida vacation in Sarasota and St.Armands. “It’s more relaxing, more quiet, more charming than the big city,” said Sambs, as the couple strolled past gia ventola. The boutique sells couture dresses, a denim collection and fashionable accessories from hats and belts to one-of-a-kind jewelry. Cher, Britney Spears and Nicole Kidman are fans, according to the store’s website. But, St.Armands isn’t all upscale. Tourists who need swimwear, floats, shorts, ball caps, sundresses, sunglasses, a Florida souvenir cup, toys, games, towels, beach bags, shot glasses, a stuffed Minnie Mouse from a Disney carousel or the requisite Florida T-shirt can find that, and more, at Alvin’s Island. In between, there is everything else. The Columbia Restaurant — with its original location in Ybor City — brings its Latin menu and familiar elegance to the Circle. From casual to fine dining, there are plenty of places to please the palate, including Cha Cha Coconuts, La Creperie Caffe, Lynches Pub & Grub, Crab & Fin, the Blue Dolphin Café and Tommy Bahama’s Restaurant & Bar (and retail store). Men’s and women’s wear can be found at Binjara Traders Inc., Cotton Club, Island Pursuit, Foxy Lady West and Lily Pulitzer. Other shops and galleries include Green Ginger Hair Designs, FantaSea Coastal Home, Soap Stories, Flip Flop Shops, Charleston Shoe Co., Tervis, The Stadium Gallery, McCarver & Moser and Woof Gang Bakery. Ice cream aficionados can scoop up treats from Ben & Jerry’s or from the oldfashioned ice cream parlor at Kilvin’s Chocolate & Ice Cream. Gigi’s Cupcakes is one of the newest treat shops on the Circle, opening just months ago. One-of-a-kind gourmet cupcakes are made fresh daily by baker Caroline Kaye. The bakery is the brainchild of Gigi Baker, who moved to Nashville for country stardom but founded a cupcake empire of more than 100 stores instead. St. Armands Circle soon could be her busiest store in this natural outdoor mall. “People like to come down for a day and shop at the boutiques,” said the store’s marketing consultant, Jerry Pippins. And, to choose from such selections as Hunka Chunka Banana Love and White Midnight Magic. St. Armands Circle has come a long way since Frenchman Charles St.Amand bought 130 acres for $20 in 1893 for his private home.The name change to St. Armand can be chalked up to a clerical misspelling. The Circle of today belongs to the vision of circus ringmaster John Ringling who bought the island in the mid 1920s. “St.Armands is here because of his layout and street grid,” said Diana Corrigan, executive director of the St. Armands Circle Association.“It really is a shoppers’ paradise. It’s very unique. The majority of our businesses are individually owned. They are unique boutique stores.” The mantra of the association? “Get out of the box. Get into the Circle.”

Bridgett is a 4-year-old female that has been with the shelter since early September. She has come out of her shell as of late and, while she tends to have a stern look, she does enjoy being petted and will “converse.” Bridgett does well meeting new people and is comfortable seeing dogs nearby. Give Bridgett a chance, and let her prove that her stern looks are really just a mask for this sweet girl.
