The lovely smell of incense accompanies the 11:15 a.m. service, reminding us of the mystery of our holy God. 5:00 p.m. — Our evening worship service praises God accompanied by contemporary worship music. In addition to Sunday worship, there are opportunities for discipleship and fellowship for adults, youth and children offered throughout the week. We’d love to see you here!

Linked to an Ancient and Global Church St. Peter’s is a member of the third largest Christian tradition in the world. The Church of England (“Anglicanism”) emerged from the Protestant Reformation and spread with the British Empire across the globe. As the Empire retracted, Anglicanism remained and has thrived as people from every tongue, tribe and nation continue to worship the Lord with a common voice all over the world.

Deeply Worshipful

Liturgically Joyful

Worshipping God in the beauty of holiness is the deﬁning practice of St. Peter’s. Regardless of whether a vested choir is singing hymns accompanied by organ and brass or a music team is leading with guitars and djembe, our focus is always the same — to give praise to our redeeming God using worship traditions that can be traced back to the earliest Church.

“Liturgy” means “the work of the people,” which is just a fancy way of saying that Anglican worship is an act of the entire congregation (not just the clergy or the choir) offering God praise, thanksgiving and adoration. The worship at St. Peter’s is not designed to entertain the congregation but to honor the true “audience” of worship, the Lord Himself.

Biblically Sound

Uniﬁed in Praise

Committed to Mission

For Anglican’s, God’s inspired Word is the ﬁnal authority for our teaching and preaching. Indeed, over the course of three years, almost the entire Bible is read aloud and preached upon.

St. Peter’s joins 77 million other Anglicans across the globe in the worship of God as He is revealed in our risen Lord, Jesus Christ. We all use a version of The Book of Common Prayer, a book which is 80 percent pure Scripture, simply organized for worship to form a worldwide chorus of praise, glorifying God with one voice.

The people of St. Peter’s respond to God’s Word by going into the world, to places like Uganda and Guatemala and Tallahassee, preaching the good news of Jesus and baptizing new believers in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Scholarly and Faithful

Sacramental in Focus

Warm and Loving

Scholarship and Biblical faithfulness go hand in hand in the life of St. Peter’s. We believe we are to love God with our heart, soul, body and mind. We invite you to get to know our ﬁve learned clergy who love the Lord and desire to use their many years of education to give depth and breadth to the faith of the people of St. Peter’s.

Every Sunday, the people of St. Peter’s come to the table of our Lord to experience His real presence in the act of Holy Eucharist (also known as Communion or the Lord’s Supper). This is the high point of our worship as we strive to follow Christ’s command to do this in remembrance of God’s great love for creation.

By God’s grace, St. Peter’s has doubled in size over the last 8 years, and we invite you to join us as we celebrate the good things that God is doing among us. Regardless of who you are, you will always ﬁnd a welome at St. Peter’s Anglican Church.

Greetings and welcome to beautiful Tallahassee! I am truly honored that you have chosen to make our community your new home. As a newcomer to Tallahassee, you will see that we take pride in preserving the gently rolling hills, canopy roads and natural landscape that are indigenous to our region. And while Tallahassee is the capital of one of the most populous states in the nation, we have been able to retain the Southern charm and exceptional quality of life that are unique to North Florida. As you settle in and explore your new hometown, you will notice that Tallahassee has award-winning parks, excellent schools, a diverse heritage and countless outstanding cultural events. We are also a growing city, with a number of exciting new projects such as Capital Cascades Park, Gaines Street’s revitalization, FAMU Way, and FSU’s CollegeTown. These wonderful new amenities represent a very bright future for our city, and I encourage you to explore and enjoy them. However, the thing you will notice most about Tallahassee are its people. Our city is home to some of the best, brightest and most involved citizens anywhere in the world, and I have no doubt you will fit right in. Welcome home! Sincerely,

John R. Marks III Mayor, City of Tallahassee (850) 891-2000 John.Marks@talgov.com

Voters have gone to the polls four times (1968, 1973, 1976 and 1992) to vote on consolidating the city and county into one entity, but it was rejected each time. • All Tallahassee/Leon County is within Florida’s 2nd congressional district, represented by Steve Southerland (R). • Historians suspected that Hernando de Soto wintered in Tallahassee in 1539 during his explorations, but it wasn’t until 1987 that a state archaeologist, the late B. Calvin Jones, pinpointed and excavated the site. Just about a mile away from the Capitol building, it is the only site in the U.S. definitively associated with the de Soto expedition.

LET IT SNOW? Tallahassee can be considerably

colder than Central and South Florida, with temperatures dipping below freezing on many winter nights. But don’t break out the skis and snow boots just yet. According to the local office of the National Weather Service, Tallahassee has had measurable snowfall only seven times in the past 120 years. The most snow, 2.8 inches, fell in February 1958, and the last time it snowed was in December 1989, when 1 inch fell.

WELCOME TO TALLAHASSEE

STATE OF FLORIDA

LEON COUNTY

CITY OF TALLAHASSEE

Florida’s state government is overseen by the governor and three elected members of the state Cabinet — the Agriculture Commissioner, Attorney General and Chief Financial Officer. Each resident is also represented by a member of the Florida House of Representatives and a member of the Florida Senate. The House has 120 members, the Senate has 40. Leon County is represented by House Districts 7, 8 and 9 and by Senate District 3. To determine which House and Senate districts you live in, you can contact the Leon County Supervisor of Elections. You can also use your zip code on the legislative websites (flsenate.gov or myfloridahouse.gov) to determine your representative and senator. Representatives are elected every two years. Senators are elected every four years. House and Senate district lines were redrawn before the 2012 elections to reflect changes in population from the 2010 census.

Leon County is guided by an elected, sevenmember Board of County Commissioners. Five Board members are elected to serve specific commission districts, and two members are elected at-large. Each year, members of the Board select a chairman and vice chairman from within the group. The Leon County Administrator and County Attorney are appointed by the Board to oversee all functions, directives and policies. Other Leon County elected officials include county and circuit court judges, the State Attorney, Public Defender, the School Board, Superintendent and five constitutional officers: Clerk of the Court, Property Appraiser, Sheriff, Supervisor of Elections and Tax Collector.

The Mayor and four-member City Commission are the governing body of the city, and all serve four-year terms. All of the seats are nonpartisan and there are no districts: All members are elected citywide. The terms of office are staggered, with elections for two commission seats held every other year. The mayor, who is elected to that particular position, has a vote at commission meetings but no veto power. Tallahassee’s executive staff — the city Manager, Attorney, Auditor and Treasurer/ Clerk — are appointed to their positions by the city commission. A wealth of information about the Tallahassee City Commission, as well as city operations and services can be found at the talgov.com website.

WELCOME TO TALLAHASSEE

PHOTOS BY LARRY DAVIDSON

My children were born here. My dearest friends live here. I’ve built a career here. Now, Tallahassee is my home. You’ve probably heard all the Chamber of Commerce chatter. And those canopy roads truly are a treasure. But read on, because I’m going to tell it like it really is: People here are really nice. They’ll always say “hi” when they pass you on the sidewalk. Cashiers usually smile and make eye contact. Chances are someone will let you in if you’re trying to merge into traffic. We gripe about it, but Tallahasseeans don’t understand truly bad traffic. We get a little worked up if we have to wait more than two or three red-light cycles to get through an intersection. There is no rush hour — it’s more like 15 or 20 minutes. You might want to buy a GPS, or at least a good map. I never could figure out how it’s possible to leave my house, go in any one of three directions, and somehow still manage to get to the airport. Speaking of airports … it’s true, it’s not easy to get from here to there in the air from Tallahassee. Unless you’re going to Atlanta or Charlotte, N.C., chances are very good you’re going to be changing planes somewhere. And it’s always more expensive than the big-city airports. But the Tallahassee Regional Airport is clean and uncrowded, there’s usually plenty of parking and the check-in lines are a breeze. And there’s a really nice art gallery inside. Never say anything bad about anybody to anybody because, sure as shootin’, you’re probably talking to their cousin. This is definitely a “one-degree-of-separation” kind of town. We have a decent selection of national stores and restaurants, but

there’s still room for an Apple Store and The Cheesecake Factory. Tallahassee has a booming college culture, but if you don’t live close to the campuses, you’ll hardly know students are here. The good news is the universities also offer an unparalleled opportunity to be exposed to educational and cultural activities usually not found in cities this size. Consequently, lots of really smart people live here. Tallahassee’s biggest employers are the state government and higher education, so we’re not really poised for explosive growth. The booms don’t happen here, but neither do the busts. It all evens out. Leon County only has one municipality and that’s Tallahassee, which owns the city utilities. For those who get city gas and electric, there are some pretty spectacular rebates offered for switching to natural gas, upgrading to more energy-efficient appliances and weatherizing your home. We’re a pretty traditional bunch. Trends don’t make it here until they’ve been around for a year or two. But by then, all the crazy fads have faded away and you can buy clothes or decorate the house knowing both will have some staying power. If you like sports — as a participant or as a spectator — you’re in luck. There are sports programs galore for children and adults. And even if you’re a transplanted Gator like me, you have to experience at least one Seminole home football game.

True, we’re not on the coast, but you’re not exactly in Kansas, either. In Tallahassee, you’re about a two-hour drive away from some of the best beaches in the world. 2014|15 Tallahassee Newcomer

VEHICLE & VOTER REGISTRATION

VOTER REGISTRATION

Residents may register to vote any time of the year. To register, you must be a U.S. citizen, a Florida resident and in full possession of your civil rights. If you have been adjudicated mentally incapacitated or if you have been convicted of a felony, call the Office of Executive Clemency at (850) 488-2952 to restore your rights. You must be 18 years old to register. However, if you are 17 or if you have a valid driver’s license before your 17th birthday, you may pre-register to vote. To vote in an upcoming election, you must be registered to vote 29 days prior to the day of the election. Changes in political party must also be updated before the registration deadline. Florida is a closed primary state, meaning only voters who are registered members of political parties may vote for their respective party’s candidates in a partisan primary election. Those registered as independents or with minor parties are eligible to vote in primaries that have nonpartisan elections. A universal primary may occur when the only candidates for a public office are of the same political party. In that case, all registered voters in the candidates’ race may participate, regardless of party affiliation. In general elections, all voters may vote for any candidate or question on their precinctspecific ballot. Florida voter applications are available at the Supervisor of Elections’ office in the Bank of America building, just behind the Leon County Courthouse, at 315 S. Calhoun Street, Suite 110. You may also register to vote at all public schools, libraries, driver’s license offices, public assistance agencies, as well as numerous banks and businesses around the capital city. Or you can download the

Tallahassee Newcomer 2014|15

registration form from the Supervisor of Elections website, leonvotes.org. There are three ways to vote: by mail with an absentee ballot, early voting prior to the election and on Election Day at the 165 polling locations in Leon County. Absentee ballots are mailed at least 45 days prior to an election and can be tracked by the voter on the Supervisor’s website. Want to know if you are registered to vote in Leon County? You can visit the website and with a few keystrokes, know your voter registration status. The website offers complete information about upcoming elections, precincts, elected officials and more. Or, call (850) 606-VOTE (8683) for more information.

MOTOR VEHICLES AND LICENSES

Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles: flhsmv.gov Leon County Tax Collector’s Offices

DRIVER’S LICENSE Your first step to obtaining a Florida vehicle registration is obtaining a Florida driver’s license. Out-of-state drivers are required to obtain a Florida driver’s license within 30 days of residency. A new resident is exempt from taking a road test if they can provide an unexpired driver’s license from another state. To apply for a license, drivers must provide a form or identification such as a birth certificate (your out-of-state driver’s license cannot be used), proof of your Social Security number and two documents proving your current residential address, such as a recent utility bill, mail from a financial institution or a mortgage statement. You will also pay a processing fee. A change of address for in-state drivers must be submitted to the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles within 10 days of a move. Address changes for drivers

moving from within the state only may be made at express.hsmv.state.fl.us. VEHICLE REGISTRATION Once you have your Florida driver’s license, you will also need to obtain car insurance from a Florida insurance agent before you can register your vehicle. Bring proof of Florida insurance, your Florida driver’s license and your original out-of-state title to a local Florida county tax collector’s office. If you are still making loan payments on your car, and your out-of-state title is under the possession of a lienholder, the tax collector’s office will assist you in contacting the lienholder to obtain the title. In addition, vehicle identification number verification is required for all used motor vehicles titled in Florida. Registering goes hand in hand with the titling process. In the state of Florida, motor vehicles are required by law to be registered and titled within 10 days of the owner becoming employed, placing children in public school or establishing residency. Florida license plates are valid until midnight of the owner’s birthday. License plate renewals are accepted 90 days prior to the owner’s birth month. In-state registration fees are assessed according to the weight of the motor vehicle. Out-of-state drivers must pay an initial registration fee, a fee for the registration of a new metal license plate and a transfer fee, if needed. For more information, call (850) 617-2000. Fortunately, obtaining your Florida driver’s license, vehicle registration, title, tags and new license plate can all be done at once at any of the Tax Collector’s offices listed in the ad on page 8. These locations accept cash, check and all major credit and debit cards.

LIBRARIES

ocal public schools are under the direction of the Leon County School Board. A wealth of information about local public education and individual schools is available on the district’s website at leon.k12.fl.us. The site includes information on registering new students, as well as an easy-to-use page to determine what school zones you live in. Parents registering a student for the first time should be prepared to provide proof of residence (such as a utility bill), the child’s birth certificate and other identification, proof of immunizations and, if appropriate, transcript information from the child’s previous school. For more information, call (850) 487-7100. You can learn what bus routes serve your area by accessing the school system’s Transportation Department web page. REGISTRATION Parents with children who will be entering kindergarten or who will be attending public school in Leon County for the first time are encouraged to register their kids during pre-registration, which schools generally hold in late April and/or early May for the next school year. Schools continue taking registrations throughout the summer for new families moving to Tallahassee. In all cases, parents should contact their zoned schools to get the registration process started as soon as possible after securing their residence. Students who will be entering kindergarten must have certain immunization documentation on file at school before the start of the new school year. Students entering seventh grade need documentation of a Td/Tdap booster vaccine. The Leon County Health Department provides routine back-to-school immunizations Monday through Friday by appointment or

at special extended-hour immunization clinics. All children receiving immunizations through the Health Department must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. PUBLIC SCHOOL OPTIONS Leon County also offers a variety of school choice options to provide as many options as possible to maximize student learning. There are a variety of special programs available, such as International Baccalaureate, science, technology and fine arts. Families apply by March 1 of each school year for controlled choice that includes magnet schools and other special programs. Contact the School Choice Office at (850) 487-7546 for more information about attendance zones and choice options.

THE LEROY COLLINS LEON COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY SYSTEM consists of a main library in downtown Tallahassee as well as six branches and a traveling bookmobile. Leon County residents are eligible to apply for a free library card (children under 18 must have a parent or guardian co-signer).

THE FUTURE IS HERE When It Comes to Health Care, the Times They Are a-Changinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Could Tallahassee Hold the Key to the Future? BY ROSANNE DUNKELBERGER

SCOTT HOLSTEIN

“Tallahassee is very rich in its health care. I think one of the strengths of the community is the health care provided,” said Brian Cook, CEO of Capital Regional Medical Center. “Residents have two very good hospitals to choose from … they have lots of great doctors and many access points to choose from (including) walk-in clinics.” The concept at the core of health care’s future, say those involved in the industry, is trending away from hospitals, emergency rooms and specialists and toward primary care — the family doctor, pediatrician or internal medicine doctor. Or maybe not even a doctor at all, but a physician’s assistant or nurse practitioner. Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare President and CEO Mark O’Bryant sounds practically giddy when discussing the subject. “We are in a great, great environment for transforming health care. It’s going to be a very difficult transition in any market, but we’ve got the perfect laboratory population for really creating a new model of care,” he said. “It’s a large population, but not too large. It’s large enough to have morbidity patterns that reflect what you see across entire communities. We’re a diverse population, which is a very positive thing because it also is representative of the challenges people have. Community health research is not something a lot of people want to do or can do well, but we think with the new medical school … (TMH can) partner with them to do community health research.”

allahassee might just be the place where health care’s bright new future begins — and, in fact, has already started.

MEDICAL OVERVIEW

In addition, primary care has been front-and-center in Tallahassee for decades. Forty years ago, TMH established the Family Medicine Residency Program, a three-year post-graduate program that has since graduated more than 300 physicians. “If you look at … residency programs, one of the roles is to bring doctors into your community,” said O’Bryant. “Probably two-thirds of them are practicing somewhere in the bandwidth of North Florida and South Georgia. It’s been very effective at doing what it was designed to do.” In conjunction with Florida State University’s College of Medicine, TMH recently added a residency program in internal medicine, now in its second year, with an ultimate capacity of 24 doctors. It’s also in the midst of establishing a five-year-long residency program in general surgery, slated to begin in the fall of 2015. HMOs have been around since the early 20th century and got a huge boost in 1973 when federal law encouraged employers to offer managed care plans in their benefit package and subsidized the creation of HMOs. But this “new” way to deliver health care caused a backlash, and many HMOs fell by the wayside. In the midst of the HMO hullabaloo, in 1982, a group of local civic leaders created Capital Health Plan. While CHP embraced managed care, it has thrived over three decades, with about 126,000 members,

a more than 30 percent share of the potential market in its sevencounty service area — one of the highest rates of HMO coverage in the nation. It has received national acclaim, most recently ranked as the No. 3 private health insurance plan in the U.S. by the National Committee for Quality Assurance. Why did CHP make it when so many other HMOs failed? Two words: nonprofit and local. One distinct advantage in the beginning was that CHP was able to draw from a huge pool of potential members who work in government and education jobs. But John Hogan, president and CEO who has worked for CHP since its inception, credits the hyper-local focus of the organization — and its responsiveness to the needs of both members and network physicians — with its continued success. Many of the HMOs operating in Tallahassee that weren’t successful were operated from afar, often by insurance companies that were well versed in the payment end of things but not in the actual delivery of medical services, said Hogan. Without taxes and shareholders to pay, Capital Health Plan can invest in local wellness projects such as CHP Champions, a joint effort with the Leon County school system to provide physical activity — “45 or 50 minutes in constant motion,” is how Hogan described it — to more than 18,000 schoolchildren in first to eighth grades.

“The primacy of the relationship between physician and patient is key to everything we do.”

In another project, in 2011 CHP partnered with Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare to establish The Transition Center, a facility that provides follow-up care to patients after they are discharged from the hospital. A familiar pattern, said O’Bryant, is that uninsured patients seek medical attention in the emergency room when they are gravely ill. “We typically admit them, we spend — John Hogan, a lot of energy getting them well president and CEO again only to discharge them. (Because) they don’t have supCapital Health Plan port systems (or) they don’t have the financial wherewithal to buy their medications, oftentimes they go into noncompliance, and within some period of time they’re back in our ER, and we do the same thing,” said the TMH chief. The center gives these patients a temporary health care “home” with staffers who can connect them with needed services, including doctors, medicines and services. O’Bryant said providing these ongoing services for free is still considerably cheaper than the frequent ER visits the patients would otherwise need. From inception, CHP has encouraged primary care, with free wellness visits and preventive screenings, and urged members to select a personal physician with whom they can have a long-term doctor/patient relationship. “The primacy of the relationship between physician and patient is key to everything we do,” Hogan said. And decisions about appropriate care — even those that may entail telling the patient no for a particular test or treatment — are made easier when the doctors have long-standing relationships with CHP and easy access to the gatekeeper. While it could serve as a model for other HMOs, Hogan said CHP is not interested in expanding its geographic reach. “We’re

While the urgent care “doc-in-thebox” concept existed before the company started nearly 25 years ago, Patients First took it a step further, by combining the convenience of urgent care with a family care practice. — President and “I’m hearing it from everybody,” said president CEO Brian Webb, and CEO Brian Webb. Patients First The concept we have is where the next generation is heading.” One of Tallahassee’s most advantageous assets when looking to the future of health care came in 2000, when Florida State University opened its College of Medicine, the first new med school established in the U.S. in a quarter century. The Florida Legislature funded it, but with strings attached — this new school was tasked with graduating doctors focused on primary care, particularly for the elderly and in underserved rural areas. Aside from the obvious benefits of home-growing more doctors, FSU’s med school also adds a certain cachet to Tallahassee — O’Bryant said it was one of the reasons he chose to take his TMH position 11 years ago.

THINGS TO DO

10 MUST-SEE PARKS T 1

allahassee is home to almost 90 parks — everything from multi-use facilities encompassing hundreds of acres to tiny neighborhood “pocket parks,” boasting little more than a bench and a creek. There isn’t room to list them all, but here are 10 parks offering a plethora of playtime possibilities.

A.J. HENRY PARK Named in memory of property owner Dr. Joe Henry, this 72-acre gem is located amidst Killearn’s seven northeast neighborhoods and offers a playground, four picnic shelters, a large picnic pavilion and plenty of shady space for walking and observing nature. A.J. Henry Park Drive can be accessed from either Gardenview Way or Whitney Drive East. CASCADES PARK After years on the drawing board, the new Cascades Park, located at 1001 S. Gadsden St., is quickly becoming Tallahassee’s social center. A twin-use stormwater facility/community gathering place, this downtown venue contains a state-of-the-art amphitheater, an interactive water fountain, playground and miles of multi-use trails. ELINOR KLAPP-PHIPPS PARK Located on the east side of Lake Jackson at 4000 N. Meridian Road, this wild, 670-acre tract is perhaps the largest outdoor recreation spot in Tallahassee, with room for hiking, biking and horseback riding. It’s also the site of the exciting annual Red Hills Horse Trials. JACK MCLEAN JR. PARK, CENTER & POOL There are 52 acres of fun at Jack McLean Park, located at 700 Paul Russell Road. The park features five picnic shelters, grills, a playground, four basketball courts, two tennis courts, a fitness trail, two bike trails, volleyball courts, horseshoe pits and a 24-hole disc golf course. There are also swimming pools and a 20,386-square-foot indoor recreation center.

GOVERNOR’S PARK While it’s on the map, this park is probably one of the best-kept secrets in Tallahassee. The entrance is located off Blair Stone Road between Mahan Drive and East Park Avenue, and the property is known for its gently sloping open hill, scattered trees and woods trails. Great place to play catch with the kids and pups.

LAFAYETTE HERITAGE TRAIL PARK This park encompasses what used to be one continuous wet prairie system, but in 1950 a series of dams chopped it up into three distinct sections: Upper Lafayette, Piney Z Lake and Lower Lafayette. It’s now a great place to fish, bike, run, walk and paddle. The park entrance is found at the east end of Heritage Park Boulevard in the Piney Z Plantation subdivision.

PARK AVENUE CHAIN OF PARKS The Chain of Parks is actually a series of seven small urban parks in Tallahassee’s historic Park Avenue district. An April art festival and weekly arts and crafts and food market are held here. It’s a great place to be in the spring, when the rose bushes and azaleas are in bloom. SAN LUIS MISSION PARK Located north of Mission San Luis on San Luis Road, the park features covered picnic pavilions and lots of shady woods, walking around Lake Esther, plus a kids’ playground. Nice place to walk your leashed pooch or quietly contemplate the world around you. TOM BROWN PARK Located east of Capital Circle Southeast between Mahan Drive and Apalachee Parkway, Tom Brown Park is considered Tallahassee’s bestknown outdoor playground and is the home for the city’s annual Fourth of July fireworks show, as well as other events. There are fields for softball, baseball and soccer as well as a disc golf course, dog park, tennis courts and lots of other open spaces.

10 WINTHROP PARK TENNIS CENTER Located east of Mitchell Avenue south of Betton Road in the heart of Betton Hills, Winthrop Park has a playground, six tennis courts, racquetball courts, picnic tables, ball fields and a beautiful yellow rose garden near the entrance. For more information on the facilities and activities Tallahassee has to offer, call the City of Tallahassee Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Affairs Department at (850) 891-3866 or visit TALGOV.COM.

LOVE LEARNING, BUT HATE THE TESTS? OLLI IS THE ONE FOR YOU BY FRAN CONAWAY

Tallahassee Newcomer 2014|15

“WHAT’S AN OLLI?” That’s the question on garnet and gold badges sported by hundreds of folks all around Tallahassee. And those badge wearers are ready with the answer, because they want their friends and neighbors to join them as students at OLLI — the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at Florida State University. OLLI volunteers are working hard to spread the word: for adults over 50 who love learning, OLLI offers an extraordinary variety of academic courses and stimulating cultural and social events, field trips and travel opportunities. Enjoying gifted faculty from area universities, including current and retired professors as well as community experts, without the hassle of tests, grades or homework requirements, OLLI’s involved, highly engaged students have found that learning in the senior years is fulfilling, enriching and may also help fight some of the negative effects of aging. Recent courses (about 40 are offered per semester) cover a wide variety of topics, including “The Arab Spring and the Legacy of Decolonization,” “Diet and Nutrition for Healthy Aging,” “Bones: Tales from the Dead,” “Tallahassee in the Gilded Age: from the End of the Civil War to the Beginning of the 20th Century,” “Passion Through the Ages and Between the Pages: Feminist Theory and Romance Novels,” “The Evolution of Organized Crime” and “The History of Civil Rights.” That’s just for starters. In its nearly 25 years of existence, OLLI has offered an extraordinary variety of classes, all tailored to adults who love learning in a stressfree environment. During fall, spring and May semesters, OLLI members can dip into current events (national and international), history, writing, science, music, literature, the arts, technology, science, the environment, genealogy, gardening, nutrition and aging, and more. There are no entry requirements to explore this wealth of information.

THINGS TO DO

Members don’t have to be college graduates. Membership President Eileen Sperl-Hawkins has always loved learning and took college courses when she could. “But life got in the way,” she said, “and I never was able to earn a degree.” Since joining OLLI in 2002 she has explored numerous courses. Her favorites: literature and writing, which, along with the OLLI Writers’ Group, led to the flowering of her own writing skills. Now a published poet, she encourages others to develop their talents and further their education through OLLI. OLLI members also don’t have to have prior connections to FSU to join. In fact, only about 25 percent of members are FSU alumni. Many, like veteran Miami Herald reporter Martin Merzer and his wife, Marion, a higher-education administrator and policy expert, moved to Tallahassee later in life and found that OLLI helped them become involved in the community. The Merzers aren’t alone. Member Marjorie Turnbull, former state legislator and member of the Choose Tallahassee Executive Committee, noted that the presence of OLLI helps attract new residents. “OLLI is vital to the life of our community,” Turnbull said. “When Choose Tallahassee researched why retirees select a place to spend the rest of their life, we learned that the availability of lifelong learning opportunities was among the top five reasons.” Members range from 50-year-olds who are still working and can choose from lunchtime, evening or Saturday classes to still vibrant 80-plus-year-olds who are determined to stay active and involved. At 58, local attorney Claire Duchemin works full time and has two college-age children. She asked for OLLI membership as a 2013 Christmas present. Having completed her first course — learning all about blogging — Duchemin says, “OLLI is the only time in the week that’s completely and totally for me.” Past President Don Alford, a retired ear, nose and throat physician,

is one of the group’s longest-term members, with 19 years of classes under his belt. He has witnessed tremendous growth in OLLI, originally known as The Academy. The FSU alumnus and benefactor, along with his late wife, June, created a promotional fund that helps build course offerings and membership. OLLI is a real treat for retirees, says Past President Susan Yelton, who joined OLLI when she returned to Tallahassee after 15 years away. “Retirement can present challenges but also opportunities,” she says. “All the classes I never took because of my career responsibilities in service to families are now available to me through the OLLI program. And I have made a new circle of friends. I still love the ones I made years ago, but my new friends open another window to life.” Instructors appreciate the enthusiasm and wisdom of OLLI members. Longtime FSU Professor Elwood Carlson, who teaches a demography course, “The Lucky Few: Between the Greatest Generation and the Baby Boom,” says he enjoys the kind of critical, integrated thinking that OLLI students bring to class. “OLLI students grasp concepts that I have had to spoon-feed undergraduates,” he said. Matt DelCiampo, an FSU graduate student in ethnomusicology, has taught three courses in the history of popular music, giving OLLI members a chance to “rock out” with the music of their lives. DelCiampo, the winner of a $2,000 OLLI scholarship, says, “My work as an OLLI instructor has been truly one of the most rewarding experiences I’ve had at Florida State. One of the best parts about teaching this material to OLLI members is that they often contribute to our discussions with firsthand accounts and personal experiences, 2014|15 Tallahassee Newcomer

Another group of members will head to Oregon for touring and wine tasting. Educational cruises are also popular. OLLI is managed by a staff of three professionals led by Director Debra Herman and supported by hundreds of member volunteers. OLLI receives logistical support but no direct funding from FSU. Expenses are covered through affordable membership fees, course charges and fundraising efforts. Courses are offered on campus, mostly at the Claude Pepper Center, Westminster Oaks and other locations in the community. Most classes meet for six weekly two-hour sessions per semester. OLLI’s Showcase of Classes for fall semester 2014 is scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 9, 2014. Membership is open throughout the year. For more information, visit olli.fsu.edu.

ALL ABOUT

OLLI at FSU is affiliated with the Bernard Osher Foundation, which provides funding to 116 lifelong learning programs at universities and colleges all over the country. Several years ago Osher challenged OLLI at FSU to grow to 500 members. Meeting that challenge, the organization won a $1 million Osher Foundation endowment. This year the organization is in line for another $1 million Osher endowment if membership grows to more than 1,000, along with meeting other criteria. That is why membership growth has been top priority for 2013–14 President John Van Gieson. Van Gieson, a veteran journalist and public relations professional, notes that a second Osher endowment will underpin the organization’s sustainability and affordability. Deadline for the membership goal is September 2014.
