Less waiting where it matters most – our emergency room.
Two years of negotiations, with a lot of hope and persistence from the community, appears to be paying off for the MooreMickens Education Center. The center —historically tied to the first school for black students in Pasco County — was closed in 2015. But, Pasco County School District officials and the nonprofit Moore Mickens Education Center & Vocational Center Inc., are almost ready to sign a lease agreement
to reopen the school’s campus, according to Keith Babb, the nonprofit’s chairman. The lease would be for $10 a year for 30 years, Babb said. “We are extremely excited,” he said. He anticipates the matter will be on the June 6 school board agenda. Babb said a private donor made a significant contribution to the nonprofit. But, additional funds are needed. A breakfast fundraiser is scheduled for May 20.The goal is to raise at least $5,000, See CENTER, page 15A

Most people who know anything about Dade City have heard a thing or two about The Edwinola. After all, the building has been around for more than a century, and has had its glory days and dark chapters during its history. The Edwinola opened originally in 1912 to replace the Dade City Hotel, which had burned in 1907. The hotel was built by Edwin and Lola Gasque, who came up with the name Edwinola, by combining their first names, according to an account provided by Madonna Wise, a local historian. For years, the structure — with its wraparound veranda, Doric columns and Mansard roof — was a popular destination for businessmen and travelers. “The Edwinola is an icon in the community,” said Darcielle Gray, executive director of the senior living community, which has closed and reopened more than once through the years. After ceasing operations as a hotel, it became a private residence, a university, a boarding house, a restaurant and an assisted living facility, according to various historic accounts. It closed most recently after two violent deaths and reported care violations, according to media reports. “I think it was a loss for the community

when it closed. Even though it had gone through some hard times, I think it was a big loss,” Gray said.“There was a lot of sadness about it closing.” Now, the building has been refreshed, and residents have begun moving in, she See EDWINOLA, page 15A
This marks the 10th consecutive year that The Laker/Lutz News has published the names of every high school graduate in our local communities. The Class of 2017 amounts to more than 3,500 graduates in the eight high schools our community newspapers cover. In Pasco County, these graduates are from Land O’ Lakes, Pasco, Sunlake, Wesley Chapel, Wiregrass and Zephyrhills high schools. And, in Hillsborough County, our graduates are from Steinbrenner and Freedom. Names of graduates are listed by school, in alphabetical order, in our Graduation Section beginning on page 5.You will find graduate names from the two high schools closest to where you live, and also the names of valedictorians and salutatorians from these schools. In addition to graduates from our public schools, you also will find the names of graduates from three private schools in our community — Academy at the Lakes, Bishop McLaughlin Catholic High School and Land O’ Lakes Christian School. You don’t have to be a graduate, or relative of a graduate, to enjoy looking though our Grad Section. It can be fun, even rewarding, to find names of kids you know from your neighborhood, friends and acquaintances, church, community groups, sports teams and recreational activities. And, when you find a graduate you know, honor them by sending a congratulatory text, or better yet, give them a personal call. Congratulate your graduate for accomplishing an important goal in his or her life — one that is an essential stepping stone, as they go on to achieve many more. Graduates of the Class of 2017 have worked for years to fulfill the requirements to qualify for graduation. And, they are why today’s paper is important. Graduating from high school is a monumental accomplishment that will set these students on a path to success. We applaud the Class of 2017.

Developers and residents often clash when it comes to land issues. But, on two issues involving roads relating to a proposed 55-and-older, gated community — there was a rare moment when both sides agreed. And, the developers and residents got the response they wanted from Pasco County commissioners, too. One issue involved eliminating the extension of Five Farms Avenue, that would connect Country Walk subdivision to the adult community planned in adjacent Wiregrass Ranch. See ROAD, page 15A
The Pasco Economic Development Council will adjust the format for its annual awards banquet to allow more networking and showcase an industry trade show, according to a news release from Pasco EDC.

Industry awards are given in the follow-
ing categories: • Small (1-20 employees) • Medium (21-100 employees) • Large (101 or more employees) • Startup/New within past 24 months Pasco EDC has partnered with Pasco County government for more than three decades to attract businesses and create jobs in Pasco.

Wildfires in Pasco cause hassles, heavy smoke By B.C. Manion
bcmanion@lakerlutznews.com
Wildfires burning in Pasco County have produced heavy smoke — causing inconvenience for motorists, disrupting schools and posing potential health hazards. Pasco County officials have responded to the wildfires by issuing warnings to motorists to use care when driving through areas surrounding Starkey Park. Motorists should expect periods of heavy smoke on the road for 30 days to 45 days, according to county emergency staff. Signs have been posted along State Road 52, State Road 54 and State Road 589 (Suncoast Parkway), to alert motorists of the latest conditions. Motorists are advised to slow down when driving through smoke and to use their headlights, not their hazards. Parents also are advised to check the Pasco County Schools website for the latest information on schools that may be affected by the smoky conditions. Pasco County Schools and the Pasco County Emergency Management staff decided to continue the late start time for River Ridge Middle School and River Ridge High School on May 15, and planned to decide that day whether it would be safe to resume the schools’ regular schedule beginning May 16. “We hope we will be able to resume the regular schedule beginning on Tuesday (May 16), but the weather forecast will dictate what we do moving forward,” Superintendent of Schools Kurt Browning said, in a news release. River Ridge Middle, River Ridge High and Cypress Elementary Schools were closed on May 8, because heavy smoke from the Starkey Park wildfire had permeated the schools’ classrooms. Beginning May 9, River Ridge Middle and River Ridge High have operated on a 10:45 a.m. to 5:10 p.m. schedule. The Starkey Park wildfire also posed an inconvenience for those planning to camp at the park during Mother’s Day weekend. The county cancelled all camping in Starkey Park through May 14.
The Florida Department of Health in Pasco County has issued these tips to help protect you and your family from the ill effects of smoke: • Pay attention to local air quality reports, local news and health warnings related to smoke. • Use common sense when you are outside and the conditions are smoky. • Avoid prolonged outdoor activities. • Those with existing medical conditions should avoid going into smoky areas.

Flames in Starkey Park on May 6. Pasco County firefighters have been working to bring fires under control and to keep the flames from spreading.

The county also banned campfires, barbecues or any other kind of open flames in county parks until further notice. There is a burn ban in effect, until further notice, in Pasco County that prohibits burning of garbage, trash or yard debris. Bike and hiking trails also are closed in Starkey Park until further notice because of safety concerns, and to provide access for firefighters.

Staff also reported that all of the signs in Starkey Park will need to be replaced. The county estimates that between 600 and 700 people visit Starkey Park daily during the week, and about 1,000 visit daily on weekends. The Florida Department of Health in Pasco County has issued an alert to remind citizens that wildfire smoke is a respiratory irritant that causes a scratchy throat or irritated eyes and nose. It also can worse conditions such as asthma and other chronic respiratory or lung conditions. Dust generated from increased wildfire response activity on dirt roads also may worsen these conditions. And, while it may seem like an obvious piece of advice, Pasco County Commission Mike Moore warned people that they need to stay away from the wildfires. “Let’s not do sightseeing in the area,” Moore said.“Boots were melting when you walked in some of those areas. It’s important that the public stay out of there. It’s not time for sightseeing.”

On May 9, the Florida Forest Service reported that the Jay B. Starkey Wilderness fire was 70 percent contained, at 2,275 acres. During a recent update for the Pasco County Commission, county emergency staff reported that 15 miles of bike trail have been damaged in Starkey Park. Of that, about 2 miles of trail were damaged by bulldozers that had to create breaks to keep the fire from spreading.

Class of
The LAKER 2017
A SPECIAL KEEPSAKE EDITION FOR GRADUATES, THEIR FAMILIES AND FRIENDS
CONGRATULATIONS CLASS OF 2017! Marking a milestone, embarking on new paths By B.C. Manion bcmanion@lakerlutznews.com
T
housands of members of the class of 2017 will take part in ceremonies across The Laker/Lutz News’ coverage area this graduation season — to celebrate a rite of passage and embark on the next adventure. Some will head out from Lutz, Odessa, Land O’ Lakes, New Tampa,Wesley Chapel, Zephyrhills, San Antonio and St. Leo to continue their studies in other locales. Some will go to far off places; others will stick closer to home. The list of their declared colleges includes the University of Florida, Georgia Institute of Technology, Saint Leo University, Pensacola Christian College, University of South Florida, New York University, Princeton University, Stanford University, Cornell University, Florida State University, Rasmussen College, Pasco-Hernando State College and Hillsborough Community College. Their aspirations run the gamut, too. One wants to study culinary nutrition. Another, finance and actuarial science. One plans to study music education; another, microbiology. There are members of the class of 2017 interested in pursuing careers in all sorts of engineering — including electrical, computer and chemical engineering, Other majors include advertising and finance, pre-dentistry and biomedical sciences.
The list goes on and on. Before heading to that new chapter in their lives, however, these students and their families will pause to celebrate the Class of 2017’s accomplishments so far. Some graduates will take part in small, intimate ceremonies. Others will march into huge auditoriums. And, while the world around them gets noisier by the day — with partisan politics and increasing international turmoil — these ceremonies likely will be marked by timehonored traditions. Whether the gathering is large or small, there likely will be music and speeches. Each graduate’s name will be announced.
There will be photos and applause, and friends and family members will gather for parties, too. And, there are plenty of reasons to celebrate. Many members of the class of 2017 have distinguished themselves by embracing academically rigorous courses, and acing them. This crop of students has experienced a technological revolution during their lifetimes. They’ve mastered such social media channels as Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat. They have become experts at posting to Facebook and YouTube. They feel lost without their Smartphones, and texting comes second-nature
to them. The Digital Age has left its mark on their learning, too.Traditional lectures and textbooks are often enhanced by a world of information, available through the Internet, just a few keystrokes away. While many graduates plan to pursue higher education, others will be heading to the workforce. Some don’t know what kind of work they’ll pursue, and others will likely end up in careers that do not yet exist. Some receiving diplomas this year, far exceeded the requirements for graduation, while others barely squeaked by. But, regardless of how they arrived, each has accomplished a milestone and has reason to be proud. The Laker/Lutz News salutes members of the Class of 2017.

Barbie Monty’s fifth-grade class at Carrollwood Day School organized a half-hour health walk, inspired by the American Heart Association’s Healthy for Good program, to encourage small lifestyle changes that can add up to a big difference. The class invited experts to talk about nutrition, exercise and making good choices to avoid health problems. Students also used a website and phone app called Fooducate, which rates various foods for nutritional value and healthier alternatives. With a banner supplied by the U.S. Department of Agriculture are, front row from left: Charlie Woeste, Madison Bouie, Sonia Gohil, Aayush Patel, Logan Watson, Max Rabenstein, Ranai Gosine, Vasili Sotiropoulos.

At left, The Hotel Edwinola was the focal point for social life for residents and visitors to Dade City. The hotel got its name from combining the first names of Edwin and Lola Gasque. The structure opened as a hotel in 1912. At right, a beautifully remodeled building awaits those who are interested in retiring in downtown Dade City. The former hotel has eight floors that will be divided into independent living, assisted care and memory care units.
EDWINOLA, from page 1A said. “We have people who are slated to move in, almost daily, for the next several weeks.” The eight-story senior living facility offers a variety of models, Gray said, noting “we’re pretty much able to accommodate anyone.” The building has the capacity for about 160 residents, and the types of units will depend on demand. “We’re going to have two floors of independent to start with. We are applying for our assisted living license. So, we’ll have assisted living.Then, a few months after that, we’ll be offering memory care,” Gray said. A grand opening celebration has been set for May 23, from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m., at 14235 Edwinola Way.There will be refreshments, tours and a ribbon cutting. The Edwinola’s reopening is creating a buzz in the community. “Everybody is pretty excited about it,” said Gray. “When we talk to store owners in the Dade City area, different churches in the area, everybody seems to be quite happy because it gives a place for the seniors of Dade City to be able to stay in Dade City. “For them to be able to do that, that’s a pretty big thing,” she said. “Dade Citians are Dade Citians,” she explained. “They like their town.

CENTER, from page 1A Babb said. Prior to its closing, the campus on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard offered classes for adults, teen parents and specialneeds children. School officials initially announced the school’s closing in 2014, but backed off when the community pleaded to keep it open. That decision was reversed the next year, based on costly repair expenses. The goal is to partner with other nonprofits and agencies to bring multiple programs to the community, possibly including a food bank, afterschool programs, and

their banking here and their restaurants here, and their friends are here. “So, when they get to stay here – especially at The Edwinola — they’re right in the middle of town,” she said. Area merchants have already provided discount coupons, and because The Edwinola is pet friendly, Gray expects the nearby pet shop to be a popular place with residents. Seniors also will be able to take advantage of nearby restaurants and beauty shops, and be able to mix with people they’ve known for years. That’s a benefit for the seniors, but also a benefit for the community, Gray said.
voluntary prekindergarten classes. “That doesn’t mean we’re going to start programs right away,” Babb said. The first step is to get buildings open and ready for use, he said. Plans are to use the administrative building, the building that formerly housed the Cyesis teen parent program, and a building where the Dade City City Commission once held its meetings. A walk-through and inventory check was planned this week with Ray Gadd, deputy superintendent for Pasco County Schools, Babb said. Gadd was not available for comment prior to The Laker/Lutz News’ deadline for publication.
She expects most of The Edwinola’s residents will come from the Dade City and the surrounding communities, but she also suspects that some snowbirds may decide to settle in there, too. There is no buy-in or long-term commitment, Gray said. “There’s a basic community fee for entering.And then, you pay your check monthly,” she said.There’s a 30-day notice, in order to leave. The services provided for independent residents will include a light housekeeping service and a continental breakfast and lunch.Those wishing three hot meals a day can purchase a meal ticket. The residence also will provide transportation, to take residents out shopping, to doctors, to events, to movies and so on, Gray said.That service is important to seniors because many of them find it frightening to drive in heavy traffic, she said. The executive director said her goal, and the goal of her staff, will be to create an environment where residents set the course for the kinds of activities they do. “We will meet monthly to determine what next month’s calendar looks like. “We really want the residents determining their schedule, so they will drive a lot of the activities we do, based on what the group wants to do,” she said. She’s already been talking to some of the new residents.
“Some of the ladies are like,‘Can we have happy hour?’” Gray said, to which she responded:“Yes. We can have happy hour as many times a week as you want.” There will be standard activities, such as movies and popcorn, arts and crafts, and bingo.There also will be weekly speakers. “One of our goals is to make sure that the residents here know any providers that are available to them. “If a resident here ends up going to the hospital for some reason, we don’t want them to meet the hospital social worker the first time they’re lying in bed,” Gray said. “We’ll bring in wheelchair clinics. We’ll bring in walker clinics. We’ll bring in nutritionists and chefs,” she said. The idea is for residents to venture out into the community and for people from the community to drop in, too, Gray said. Along those lines, she has issued an invitation to the Dade City Police to “come in and partake in any meal that we have here,” she said. She plans to invite the fire department to do the same. “Sometimes our world gets smaller, as we get senior.We want to make sure that it stays wide,” Gray said. The executive director is upbeat about The Edwinola’s future. She envisions it as becoming a vibrant new place for seniors to call home, and she finds that prospect to be exciting. “It’s a brand-new start,” Gray said.

ROAD, from page 1A The other issue involves privatizing a public collector road to be gated and privatized, within the 55-and-older community. Commissioners sided with the developer and residents on both issues. In doing so, they voted 4-1 to overrule the county’s Development Review Committee recommendation regarding both roads. The review committee wanted to allow the extension of Five Farms Avenue, which dead-ends in Country Walk, into the proposed Wiregrass neighborhood. The committee also wanted to prevent the privatizing of a public collector road in the active adult neighborhood. Pasco County Commissioner Kathryn Starkey was the only commissioner who sided with the development review committee’s recommendations. “I have always been supportive of our planning process to connect neighborhoods to each other,” Starkey said.“I just think it’s Planning 101 to connect neighborhoods.” But, not in this case, said Bill Merrill, a Sarasota attorney representing Locust Branch LLC, the developer for the 55-andolder community. Opening up Five Farms would create connections to Country Pointe Boulevard and then to Meadow Pointe Boulevard, Merrill said. “This is going to be a speedway through the residential portion of the neighborhood,”
Merrill said. “I think we need to pull back sometimes. What makes sense here?” But, Kris Hughes, the county’s planning and development director, said the county seeks to increase connections between neighborhoods. Such connections help “to Mike Moore get people efficiently out of their homes” for public health and safety reasons, and reduce traffic on major roadways, Hughes said. “The idea is to create some semblance of a grid pattern in these neighborhoods to provide inner movement internal to the system at appropriate scales and for significant relief from arterial (roads),” Hughes said. County staff also has to look not only at neighborhood streets but the larger picture of how they impact the entire road system, he added. Most county commissioners said they want to encourage more 55-and-older communities.And, Starkey said she isn’t opposed to gated communities. “You’re not going to get one that’s not gated,” said Pasco County Commission Chairman Mike Moore.“They want their privacy.” Pasco County Commissioner Mike Wells said the Wiregrass project is a good one. “Folks like to have gated communities,” Wells said.

Community Sports Servin’ aces on the sand Your Neighborhood Sports Source

When Bethany Randall began playing beach volleyball nearly two years ago, she never envisioned it could lead to a Division I athletic scholarship. “It really just started with trying to get in shape,” said Randall, a Land O’ Lakes resident and senior at Seffner Christian Academy. Starting next spring, Randall will play women’s beach volleyball at Jacksonville State University, a Division I school in Jacksonville,Alabama — roughly eight hours north of Tampa and about 90 miles west of Atlanta, Georgia. That’s quite an achievement, considering the sport became sanctioned in Florida just last year — through a partnership with the independent Sunshine State Athletic Conference (SSAC) and the Florida Region of USA Volleyball. The inaugural 2017 season — comprised of 22 Florida schools — concluded in April with a state championship tournament at Hickory Point Beach, a 21-court beach volleyball facility in Tavares, Florida. Besides Seffner Christian, several Tampa Bay area schools fielded squads in Year 1, including Bishop McLaughlin Catholic High School, Carrollwood Day School and Indian Rocks Christian School. Similar to many girls, Randall grew up playing indoor volleyball, taking up the sport in middle school and playing all through high school. She — like many peers — initially viewed the sand-based sport as just a fun, noncompetitive alternative to oft-expensive indoor club leagues. “Honestly, before I realized it was a college sport, I didn’t think of playing it,” Randall said. Before long, however, she was hooked. “I picked it up as quick as I could,” she said. “It just turned into something she fell in love with,” added her father Jeff Randall, also Seffner Christian’s beach volleyball coach. As passion for the sport grew, her skill did, too. She became Seffner Christian’s top-seeded player this past season — catching the atten-

Hay Outstanding Student Athlete Award, during an April 17 awards banquet. Each year, one female and one male PHSC student-athlete who “demonstrate excellence in the classroom, on the fields and courts, in leadership on campus, and with service in the community” is selected by the PHSC coaching staff to receive the Dr. Debra J. Hay Outstanding Student Athlete Award. Hay was a former dean of student services, who encouraged excellence and was an advocate for student athletes. Simbulan, a PHSC sophomore from Pensacola, has a 3.94 grade point average. Her community service projects have included participation in a Phi Theta Kappa roadside clean-up event and the Special Olympics.

tion of college coaches. Though she considered in-state schools such as Florida Gulf Coast University and Stetson University, Bethany Randall couldn’t resist the out-of-state university’s offerings. “I liked the family atmosphere — (the coaches) put a big emphasis on that,” she said.“As for the scenery, it’s in the mountains, so it’s just a different experience than Florida,” she said. Aside from the obvious, several distinctions exist between indoor and outdoor volleyball, beginning with the size of the half courts — a beach volleyball square is eight meters and the indoor square is nine. Also, beach volleyball is played between
teams of two rather than six, with no substitutions. Matches use rally scoring and are best-of-three sets played to 21, though the third set is played to 15. Similar to high school tennis matches, sand matches are officiated by the players. And, each team fields four pairs per match, though only the top three pairs, or seeds, count toward the final results. The sand sport, according to Jeff Randall, lends itself to well-rounded players, as opposed to primarily offensive or defensive volleyball specialists prevalent with indoor volleyball. “You’ve got to be able to do it all.You’ve got to hit, you’ve got to pass, you’ve got to
Saint Leo adds three during spring signing The Saint Leo women’s basketball team has announced the addition of three more players to the 2017-2018 roster: Alani Gallagher, of Vestal, New York; Savannah Scott, of South Bend, Indiana; and Dashaun Jackson, of Miramar, Florida. Gallagher, a 6-foot-1 center from Vestal High School, was named the BCANY (Basketball Coaches Association of New York) Class A Player of the Year following her senior season, where she averaged 15.2 points, 10.8 rebounds and 3.6 blocks per game. Scott, a 6-foot-1 power forward, was a three-year letterman at South Bend St. Joseph High School, winning the Indiana Class 3A State Championship in 2017. Jackson, a 6-foot-1 wing, was part of Miami Country Day High School’s Florida State Championship three-peat, winning the title in 2015, 2016 and 2017.

serve, you’ve got to receive, you’ve got to block.You’ve got to do everything.” It also requires more strategy and game planning, plus accommodating for factors like wind speed and sun direction. “It’s like a pawn game,” Jeff Randall said. That — and the added responsibilities having just one teammate — makes the sport more challenging than the traditional game, Bethany Randall said. “It requires a lot more athleticism,” she said.“Just moving in the sand, you have to be able to (quickly) get back down and get back up.” Even so, Bethany Randall finds the sport “ a lot more enjoyable” than indoor volleyball. Thousands seem to agree, as its popularity nationwide has risen in the past decade. According to the American Volleyball Coaches Association (AVCA), nearly 500,000 females ages 13 to 25 have taken up the sport since 2007. Women’s beach volleyball, moreover, has been labeled the fastest growing NCAA sport — ever. In 2012, there were just 16 Division I teams. It since has burgeoned to 54 during the 2016-2017 season. And whether it’s college or high school, it doesn’t take much to sponsor a program — mostly because of low overhead costs compared to other sports. “It’s such as easy sport to field,” Jeff Randall said.“There’s little equipment — you buy two balls, you go to a public court; and, you really only need six girls.” From a coaches’ perspective, Jeff Randall anticipates the sport soon will be played in dozens more Florida high schools, and eventually will be sanctioned by the Florida High School Athletic Association (FHSAA), the main governing body for high school athletics in the state of Florida “Five years from now, it’s going to be so different — every school will have a team,” he said, assuredly. The sport isn’t just reserved for the younger generation, either. “It’s something you can play a long time,” Jeff Randall said.“I’m 47 years old and am still playing fairly competitive, where a lot of sports you’re just done at a certain age.”
