ero Beach, known as “The Jewel of the Treasure Coast” and the “Gateway to the Tropics,” is a place where spirits are lifted and friends are easily made. Those who have chosen to live here cherish what they have. Residents overwhelmingly voted to limit future building height to three stories and have diverted roads to preserve the expansive live oak canopies.

Everyone in his or her way has made it possible to preserve an enviable quality of life that continues to attract newcomers – artists, authors, doctors, educators, entertainers and retirees, people from all walks of life with talents, ideas and skills to share. Vero Beach, once called “Florida’s Best Kept Secret,” has been discovered and loved.

Vero Beach History

I

f you’re a history buff, one of the first things you want to find out is when and how Indian River County and the city of Vero Beach got their start. So let’s take a look at the past. During the 1600s the area was home to the Ais tribe of Native American Indians. The Seminoles soon followed. But take a step or two deeper since we now know from skeletal remains that at least five individuals had already staked their place along with Ice Age mammals. If that news didn’t shake things up enough, the 2009 discovery of a drawing of a prehistoric mammoth carved on a piece of bone, estimated to be between 13,000 and

Pleistocene mammoth teeth, like this one unearthed here in 1916, are still found in Vero Beach.

The Driftwood Inn was built by Waldo Sexton in 1935 and is still a resort today.

20,000-years-old, definitely did.

Now fast-forward to 1893 when Henry Flagler’s Florida East Coast Railroad began making stops at Vero’s train station, effectively speeding up the influx of newcomers. Growth was inevitable, and those who envisioned the future began snapping up large tracts of land. By 1914, the town of Vero was beginning to take shape as roads, residential areas, parks and a business hub were carefully laid out.

Residents cheered when The Strand, the first movie theater, opened in 1917. A year later Vero had its first power plant, and two years later weekly copies of the Vero Press started rolling off the presses.

The slogan – “Vero - Where the Tropics Begins “ – became an instant marketing mantra. In 1924 the Florida Theater was established with 600 seats and an organ that played music while silent films featuring the likes of Charlie Chaplin and the Keystone Cops flickered on the screen. The new theatre became the place to see and be seen.

Yet it wasn’t until 1925 that members of the Florida Senate passed a bill creating Indian River County and adding the word “Beach” to Vero, making it the county seat. In 1927, John J. Schumann took over the Vero Press and renamed it the Vero Beach Press-Journal. When rumors began circulating that Vero Beach was about to have an airport, newspaper headlines included the name of Bud Holman, who was instrumental in making the rumor become a reality in 1930. Two years later, Eastern Airlines began making refueling stops. Not long afterwards the air carrier added passenger and mail service. Vero Beach had become more than just a tiny dot on the map.

American’s love affair with the automobile led to an increase in the number of highways connecting cities and states. It didn’t take long before Route 60, which linked the Atlantic Ocean with the Gulf of Mexico, became heavily trafficked. The rush was on.

Bridges connecting the mainland with the barrier island spurred the development of beachside businesses and hotels to accommodate the growing number of tourists. Citrus and cattle man Waldo Sexton built the Driftwood Inn, a rambling, two-story, oceanfront structure made of wood and flotsam-jetsam from shipwrecks Sexton had found washed up on the beach. The eccentric entrepreneur imprinted his signature style on the Ocean Grill, a landmark where it’s said a ghost roams the kitchen after the restaurant’s chefs have called it a night.

During World War II, the U.S. Navy commissioned a pilot-training station at the airport, and 1,400 service men and 250 planes moved in. After the war ended, the Navy closed the station, yet many of the pilots who had found sweethearts and made lifelong friends here returned, put down roots and contributed to the local economy.

Past & Present

Holman Stadium at Dodgertown was the center of the Dodgers’ spring training complex in Vero Beach.

The economy took a big boost in 1948 when the Brooklyn Dodgers came to town. Dressed in their red, white and blue uniforms, players smiled as Dodgertown, the baseball team’s new spring training complex, was officially dedicated. Four years later the sports venue was renamed Holman Stadium in honor of Bud, who was instrumental in bringing the Dodgers to Vero Beach. Baseball fans from near and far came to cheer “the home team” on. There wasn’t a hotel room to be found, restaurants added extra tables and chairs, and shop owners were busy ringing up sales. Life was good.

The more people spent time in Vero Beach, the more they wanted to live here. Developers had a heyday as demand for housing on the barrier island and mainland increased. New residents, many of them affluent patrons of the arts, devoted their energies and financial resources to creating a vibrant cultural community. The extent of their generosity can be seen on the walls, halls and stages of theatres, museums and concert halls that bear their names. As a result of their efforts, we are blessed with professional and community theatre presentations, an outstanding museum of art as well as orchestra, symphony, opera and ballet performances.

6 Tips For Visitors 1

Treat your body well. Bring sunscreen with at least SPF15 and wear it every day, along with sunglasses that block UVA and UVB rays.

2

Know the dress code. Vero Beach is a casual beach town, but some restaurants and clubs have restrictions, especially in the evening. For men, khakis or slacks with a collared shirt is the minimum. Many clubs prohibit sandals and flip-flops for men. Women can wear skirts, pants or sundresses, and sandals are okay (but still no flip-flops). The clubs in Vero Beach are split on whether to allow denim and on requiring a jacket and tie for men in the evening. It’s always best to call ahead if in doubt. Please remember to silence your cell phone.

3

Don’t use your horn. Everyone in the surrounding cars will store your image in their minds and when they meet you again – this is a small town – they will remember you as the rude visitor. Just be patient.

AM

Bring comfortable shoes. Vero Beach has many places to walk – try the boardwalk on Ocean Drive in the early morning.

Pack insect repellent. Mosquitoes and gnats (no-see-ums) are sometimes an annoyance, especially at dusk after rainy weather.

Getting Here

By Car Vero Beach is off the beaten I-95 path, the most direct way from Point A (South Florida) to Point B (Indian River County). Take exit 147 (State Road 60) heading east. Before long you’ll find yourself in the heart of Vero Beach. If anyone tells you to take U.S. 1, which runs north and south through town, ignore them. Too many stoplights, too much traffic, too much of a hassle. You’ll be tearing your hair out by the time you reach the Welcome to Vero Beach sign.

Vero Beach has an average of 232 sunny days per year, 27 more than the national average.

In the summer months, afternoon showers are common and usually followed by clear skies at sunset. The Atlantic hurricane season officially runs from June 1 until the end of November, although damaging storms are rare in Vero Beach. Thankfully, hurricanes are well-predicted with modern technology, allowing for an early and worry-free evacuation of the barrier island when necessary.

Non-stop commercial jet service by Elite Airways is now available from our very own Vero Beach Municipal Airport (VRB) to select locations. Private and jet charter services are also an option, or call Able Jets for concierge jet service.

More commercial flights are available at Melbourne International Airport (MLB). Only 39 miles north of Vero Beach, parking is accessible and affordable, security staff professional and helpful, and short-order fare is served up with a smile. The drawback: a limited number of carriers offer fewer flight and schedule options than larger airports.

Options abound at Orlando International Airport (MCO), the hub of many domestic and international airlines. The airport is 109 miles northwest of Vero Beach, on Semoran Drive off the Beachline Expressway (County Road 528). Long and short-term parking are available, as well as off-site parking locations with shuttle service. Shortcut tip: If you’re driving north on I-95, consider taking State Road 520 west, which links up with the Beachline closer to the airport.

Palm Beach International Airport (PBIA) is 80 miles south of Vero Beach, off the I-95 Belvedere Road exit. Getting to PBIA is a piece of cake. Long and short-term parking is available; ditto rental cars, shuttle buses, taxis and ground transportation.Y

The Basics Indian River County, part of the 19th Judicial District of Florida, has a five-member Board of Commissioners and five Constitutional Officers: Tax Collector, Elections Supervisor, Property Appraiser, Sheriff and Clerk of the Circuit Court. All are elected positions. See www. ircgov.com. The City of Vero Beach is the county seat and operates under a council-manager form of government. The five-member

For those moving to the area, we’ve prepared a little cheat sheet that walks you through the basics of setting up a home in Vero Beach. A good Realtor will act as your best friend here, giving recommendations and their own helpful guidance. One thing we neglected to mention in our list – the best way to meet people in Vero Beach is to volunteer at a local nonprofit that serves a topic you are interested in. See our volunteering list on page 158 for a complete list of local nonprofits.

One of the many bonuses to living in Florida is that it has no inheritance, state or gift taxes, making the Sunshine State particularly attractive to retirees. There is, however, a 7-percent sales tax that excludes medicines, medical services and food. When it comes to real estate taxes, property owners are assessed ad valorem – based on

Moving To Vero Beach?

Tips For A Smooth Transition

1

2

4

First, Find A Home

Visualize your ideal lifestyle and make a list of priorities.

Contact a local Realtor and ask them to give you an overview of different neighborhoods and properties that offer your top qualifications; for example, private beach access, tennis courts or a manned gatehouse.

Safe & Sound

Vero Beach is an extremely safe place, but we do get the occasional break-in. It’s always better to be safe than sorry. A good security system connects the alarm directly to local law enforcement.

Again, ask your Realtor which company they would

030-047 Living Here_VBHB17.indd 36

Power To The People

If your home is in the City of Vero Beach or select areas of unincorporated Indian River County, visit the VERO

BEACH CITY UTILITY DEPARTMENT, in person if possible

at 1046 20th Street in Vero Beach. If your home is in any other area in the county, call FLORIDA POWER & LIGHT (FP&L),

800-993-7546. Your Realtor can guide you to the proper place.

5

A Moving Experience

Make sure you choose a reputable, insured and licensed moving company. If possible, have them do most of your packing, too. Create a plan of where you want to place your furniture and boxes before they arrive at your new home. Put a tag on every box showing its predetermined room. Planning will save you a headache at the end. If you have too much stuff or just want to store things like holiday decorations off-site, there are many ministorage facilities in Vero Beach; make sure yours is air-conditioned.

Remember to change your mailing address directly with your credit card companies, banks, friends and family (if you want them to find you).

recommend. We use BE SAFE SECURITY ALARMS at 772-7780052. Install the system before you move into your new home. Also, remember to change your door locks.

7

Cooking With Gas

If your kitchen or outdoor grill requires a gas line, call FLORIDA CITY GAS at 800-993-7546 or AMERIGAS for propane at 772-567-4394.

Can You Hear Me Now?

An unavoidable agony – be prepared for it regardless of which company you use for phone, internet and cable TV. In our county you have two choices: AT&T (BellSouth) or COMCAST. DirectTV, a subsidiary of AT&T, offers satellite service but often doesn’t work when there is heavy cloud cover.

You’ve Got Mail

The USPS has a nifty online service to change your mailing address at www. usps.com (click on Change of Address) or www.moversguide.usps.com. If you want to set up a post office box, visit the post office at 3320 Cardinal Drive, 2050 13th Avenue, 1551 U.S. Highway 1 or 8500 20th Street.

Talking Trash

Your sanitation services depend on your address. A good deal of helpful information can be obtained at www.ircrecycles.com. WASTE MANAGEMENT services most residences in Vero Beach; 772-569-1776. They provide one waste bin for garbage and one for recycling (you can get a different-size bin if needed). Your date for pick-ups is set by location so call them for additional information. Indian River Shores uses REPUBLIC SERVICES; 772-562-6620. Visit www.irshores.com/recycling for additional information.

Republic Services uses different bins for garbage and recycling. Landfill sites will accept larger bulk waste items. Visit www.ircrecycles. com for more information.

11

Just in case, a good renters’ or homeowners’ insurance policy protects you from many of life’s unexpected unpleasantries.

Make A Splash

Many Vero Beach homes have pools and spas, so a maintenance company is necessary to maintain cleanliness and chemical balance. Saltwater chlorination is much better for your skin, so switch over if possible.

12

Green Is Good

Cleanliness & Godliness

14

Creepy Crawlies

License To Chill

If you live here, your car must be registered in the state of Florida. Bring your current vehicle registration and title to the Tax Collector’s office in building B of the County Administration Complex at 1800 27th Street. Then go to the driver’s license office in the same building with your new Florida license plates, your current driver’s license, title and registration.

For better service, make an on-line appointment before you go. You can also get hunting and fishing licenses at the Tax Collector’s office.

Hope For The Best

Vero Beach has an abundance of small companies that offer mowing and sprinkler maintenance. Go for a larger company if you also need a landscape professional to manage trees, flowering vines and the rest of your garden.

If possible, hire professionals to keep your home immaculate so you can spend your valuable time enjoying life in Vero Beach. Make sure they are licensed and bonded.

If you don’t want uninvited guests in your new home – this is a subtropical jungle, after all – a bug service will regularly treat the outside of your property and probably do an annual or bi-annual interior treatment. That is usually enough to deter little creeping surprises. But not relatives.

The Moorings Yacht & Country Club is an ocean-to-river community on Vero Beach’s barrier island.

Neighborhoods If you’re house hunting, you will be surprised and delighted to find many residential neighborhoods within the larger Vero Beach community, each with a distinct “flavor” of its own.

Private Residential Club Communities Tennis is alive and well at GRAND HARBOR GOLF & BEACH CLUB where top-level amateur tennis players compete during United States Tennis Association-sanctioned tournaments and charity fundraising exhibitions. Two championship golf courses attract residents who take to the fairways year round, and boaters find a safe haven at Grand Harbor’s deep-water marina.

030-047 Living Here_VBHB17.indd 38

JOHN’S ISLAND CLUB, a river-to-ocean community in Indian River Shores, features three championship golf courses where the United States Golf Association held its 35th annual Mid-Amateur Tournament in October 2015. Yet there’s more to “JI” than golf, including Har-Tru tennis courts, air-conditioned squash courts, and beachfront and golf clubhouses offering fine dining and social events that attract young and old alike.

The member-owned MOORINGS YACHT & COUNTRY CLUB on south A1A purchased HAWK’S NEST GOLF CLUB, adding a second 18-hole course and clubhouse to the list of member-friendly features that includes a deepwater marina, Har-Tru tennis courts, a fitness center, a health spa and a pool. The country club on the Indian River Lagoon offers fine dining along with fine views.

north A1A, is described as “an intimate, private club” with an Arnold Palmer-designed 18-hole championship golf course sure to challenge even the lowest handicap player. Other amenities include a tennis center featuring Har-Tru courts and a fitness center, and a Beach Club with terrace bar, lounge, dining room and popular oceanfront pool.

Situated on the Atlantic oceanfront in a lush setting of live oaks and sabal palms, SEA OAKS has been recognized for both the special charm of its landscaping and ambiance, as well as its exceptional tennis program. Sea Oaks is one of only a few communities on Vero Beach’s barrier island with a full-service beach club.

For the horse enthusiast, WINDSOR, with its first-rate equestrian center and riding trails, is likely to be the community of choice. The New Urbanism architecture also appeals, as well as an 18-hole championship, links-style golf course and clubhouse with fitness center.

In-Town Residential Neighborhoods The laid-back charm of CENTRAL BEACH is what draws homeowners to this barrier island neighborhood, bordered by Iris Lane on the south

030-047 Living Here_VBHB17.indd 40

and Live Oak Road on the north. Ocean and Cardinal Drive restaurants, boutiques, hotels and businesses are within walking distance.

Riverside Park with its tennis courts, a walking and jogging trail, boat ramp, Memorial Island, the Vero Beach Museum of Art and Riverside Theatre, is but a short skip and hop away.

RIOMAR has been called the crown jewel of Vero Beach’s barrier island due in part to the neighborhood’s historical significance. Golf enthusiast Winchester Finch discovered the barrier island location in 1919, invited his Cleveland cohorts, and coined the name (translation: “river to sea”). The first houses were built on sandy shell-packed roads close to the clubhouse. While a handful still stand, over the years structural renovations and paved roads have left their mark on the neighborhood. Even so, the community’s intrinsic character remains; tradition is Riomar’s niche.

SOUTH BEACH ocean and riverside residential communities on A1A south of the Alma Lee Loy Bridge and north of Round Island, bear seafaring names the likes of Castaway Cove, Sandpoint and Oceanridge. Most are gated and deed-restricted. More often than not new residents are greeted by friendly neighbors bearing gifts.

The VERO BEACH COUNTRY CLUB, MCANSH PARK, and ROYAL PARK neighborhoods on Vero Beach’s mainland are close to churches, the public library, county administration building, courthouse, and best of all, a revitalized downtown arts and business district. Royal Park and McAnsh Park date back to the early 1920s, and many of the original homes representative of the architectural style of the era remain.

Estates, Farms, Ranches to the West If it’s wide open spaces you’re looking for, Vero Beach has that, too.

Just west of the city, two new subdivisions are just getting their start: THE FARMS and HIDDEN HAMMOCK, both with five-acre lots for sale. If that doesn’t suit your fancy, you can find much more extensive acreage where you can build the house of your dreams and have space for children and horses to roam as well as all the privacy you could ever want. Plus, you can build a barn big enough to house all your toys.

Much of the landscape is old Florida, untamed and isolated. Wildlife and birds flourish. And if you really want to get into the spirit of old Florida, you might find a farm or grove with the original homestead available. Nowhere else in the county will you find the sweeping views and great dome of sky.

The Hallstrom Farmstead was built in 1909 as the main house on a pineapple plantation.

Museums Interested in the past? Here in Vero Beach and Indian River County, we are very proud of our heritage. Historical museums give us the chance to look at our shared history and the events that have made us who we are. From historic homesteads like Hallstrom Farmstead and the Laura (Riding) Jackson house that show the way that people lived in the past to the treasure museums that have given the Treasure Coast its name, to the National Navy UDT - SEAL Museum that chronicles the rise of that famous group of warriors who have given so ceaselessly to preserve our country, we have something for everyone.

Want to know more about the best citrus in the world? Try the Indian River Citrus Museum. How about the local fishing industry?

The Sebastian Inlet State Park Fishing Museum can fill you in on that.

Then our two local historical societies – Indian River County Historical Society and the Sebastian River Historical Society – have museums that take you into the distant past. The Indian River Historical Society is located in the original Vero Beach railroad, a major factor in the expansion of Indian River County. The Sebastian River Historical Society, located in the 1927 Historic Sebastian School, offers a glimpse of the Ais Indians as well as the agricultural and commercial interests that have made the area the place to live and work.

These museums collect, preserve, interpret and display items of social, cultural or historical significance for the education of the public. They tell who we are and where we came from and how we interpret our past. So spend a pleasant afternoon exploring one of these interesting museums or spend a day or two exploring all of them! It’s an enlightening way to spend an hour or a day or even two.

Vero Beach has an abundance of activities relating to science and nature – or at least it seems that way when you look at our surroundings.

Interested in birds? Indian River County is one of the best birding areas in the United States. Not only that, there are preserves and national refuges and wetlands and state parks and learning centers that provide great opportunities to explore what is was like in a Florida of long ago. There are other exotic flora and fauna to check out, including the ubiquitous alligator. Want to zipline over a tropical landscape tucked away in a zoo or an old Florida ranch? We have that too. Canoe? Kayak? At your pleasure.

How about exploring space? The Kennedy Space Center is nearby and our local aircraft manufacturer invites you on tours. You can spend days and days exploring the great outdoors in all its tropical glory and find something new every day. Indoors, too.

The Arts & Culture

T H E O F F I C I A L V E R O B E AC H H A N D B O O K

Riverside Theatre features adult and children’s performances throughout the year.

Theater This is a town that loves its theater. Ever since stage lights first shone on the Vero Beach Theatre Guild’s production of “Tom Jones” on November 7, 1973, the community has enthusiastically embraced theatrical efforts. Today Riverside Theatre, affiliated with Actor’s Equity Association, the League of Resident Theatres, the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society, and United Scenic Artists is widely recognized as a cultural treasure throughout the country.

Riverside Theatre On RIVERSIDE THEATRE’s Stark Stage, the 2017 season starts off with “Chicago, the Musical,” the winner of seven Tony Awards from January 3-22. Set in the prohibition-era Chicago, the show follows chorus girl Roxie Hart and the murder of a faithless lover. She is sent to death row where she meets Velma Kelly, another “merry murderess.”

“Mame” follows from March 7-26 featuring Mame Dennis, a larger-thanlife personality living the high life in the Roaring Twenties in New York City.

Patrick, her orphaned 10-year-old nephew, comes to live with her and she introduces him to an eccentric lifestyle

062-083 Arts _VBHB17.indd 70

and madcap cast of characters. Jerry Herman’s delightful score is packed with musical favorites. Next comes “Saturday Night Fever” with music and lyrics by The Bee Gees from April 11-30. “Saturday Night Fever” whisks you back to the 1970s, where open shirts, bell-bottoms and disco were all the rage. At the Waxlax Center for the Performing Arts, “An Empty Plate in the Cafe du Boeuf” runs from January 17-February 5. At the world’s greatest restaurant, the Café du Grand Boeuf in Paris, no menu is necessary. Open for only one patron, owner and American millionaire Victor, the staff is always ready to prepare the most sumptuous of meals. Then Victor arrives with one

simple wish: to die of starvation. The devoted staff try all means to change his mind. Comedy ensues throughout the delectable seven-course meal as a feast of words and declarations fill the restaurant. “The Christians” is showcased from March 21-April 9. Twenty years ago, Pastor Paul’s church was a modest storefront. Now it houses thousands, with a coffee shop in the lobby and a baptismal font as big as a swimming pool. But Pastor Paul is about to share some news his congregation isn’t used to hearing. This is a mesmerizing play about faith and redemption and its power to unite or divide.

The RIVERSIDE CHILDREN’S THEATRE presents “Seussical Jr.” from February 17-18. This musical is based on the books of Dr. Seuss, particularly “Horton Hears a Who!,”“Horton Hatches the Egg” and “Miss Gertrude McFuzz” and debuted on Broadway in 2000.

“A Midsummer Night’s Dream” runs from April 21-22.

3250 Riverside Park Dr. and 3280 Riverside Park Dr. www.riversidetheatre.com ....................................................772-231-6990

Vero Beach Theatre Guild The VERO BEACH THEATRE GUILD continues to dazzle with plays starring local actors starting with ”Cash on Delivery,” a British farce that features a con artist who has invented a series of people who live at his address and for whom he claims every type of benefit from the welfare authorities. See what happens when they come for a chat from January 12-22.

From March 9-26, “The Pajama Game” combines love and a pajama factory where the workers are demanding a 7 ½-cent raise.

“Making God Laugh” by Sean Grennan is a family comedy that takes place in four scenes, 10 years apart beginning in 1980. Follow the kids – a priest, an actress and a former football player – as they return home for the holidays. The play runs from May 11-21.

If your two left feet kept you from becoming a performer, fear not.

You have the chance to become an instant fan of ballet in Vero Beach, which boasts two dance companies.

VERO CLASSICAL BALLET

This year Vero Classical Ballet is celebrating its 12th anniversary. Be sure to catch Vero Classical Ballet’s “Cinderella” and “The Sleeping Beauty.”

Relatively new to the community, the ballet has certainly made its mark.

Thanks to professional dancer and choreographer Adam Schnell, the resident dance company is here to stay.

“Our mission is to promote the art of dance as a universal language,” says Schnell. “You can go to any country in the world that has music and ballet and enjoy and appreciate what you’re experiencing.” Bravo!

On January 20-21, at the Vero Beach Performing Arts Center, see three world premieres in “Composers and Choreographers” featuring artistic director

While you may not be able to fly to New York, Boston or Washington, D.C. to take in a live concert, opera or ballet performance, you can slip into a seat at the Vero Beach Museum of Art or Majestic 11 Theatre where the magic you might otherwise miss is captured on the big screen. Folks rave about the quality of live simulcasts shown at the local movie theater where a partnership formed between Vero Beach Opera and the Majestic has brought a new awareness of and appreciation for opera. Add to that the Bolshoi Ballet performances in high-definition and plays from Britain’s National Theatre, and you have a feast for the senses.

Concert lovers, theater and ballet buffs already have dates marked on their calendars along with a note to be there early.

Adam Schnell’s interpretation of local composer Paul Gay’s “In Which Cio-Cio San Goes With Pinkerton,” dancer Chloe Watson’s new work “Ophelia” using a commissioned score performed live by composer Sean McVerry, and Schnell’s “Anything You Can Do” set to Antonio Vivaldi’s energetic triple violin concerto. Ballet Vero Beach continues the much-lauded collaboration at the Vero Beach Museum of Art with an evening of dance interpreting the spring exhibitions on display at the museum on February 17 along with a meet-the-artists reception. On April 21-22, trace dance history at “Bournonville, Balanchine, and Beyond” as Ballet Vero Beach caps off the fourth season with a look into the distant past, the recent past and the future at Vero Beach Performing Arts Center.

The Arts & Culture

Music Music has been making Vero Beach go round since the first settlers arrived humming happily. It didn’t take long before banjo players, drummers, piano players and other instrumentalists got together and struck up the band.

Sopranos, altos, tenors and basses took note, forming vocal groups that performed in churches and concert halls. It’s no secret that singing is good for the soul.

According to researchers at Oxford University, it’s also good for making new friends. After studying a group of adults ages 18 to 83 who didn’t know each other before they started singing together, researchers concluded that singing can make us happier and more willing to bond with others.

Over the years the number of musical offerings in Vero Beach has increased. There are opera and orchestra performances along with choral concerts galore.

Emerson Center’s 2017 Celebrated Speakers are (from left) Michael Pollan, Michael Oppenheimer, Stephen Dubner and General Michael Hayden.

Lectures

Vero Beach has long been the home of inquiring minds eager to explore new ideas. It’s no wonder that lecture series intended to inform and inspire have grown in both number and popularity. If you thought that last year’s line-up of speakers at Riverside Theatre, The Emerson Center and the Vero Beach Museum of Art packed a punch, this season promises to be a knock-out winner.

RIVERSIDE THEATRE

The Riverside Theatre’s Distinguished Lecturer Series draws on international experts to address pressing global issues as Arthur Brooks, President of the American Enterprise Institute, explains why the conventional wisdom on capitalism is precisely backwards and how each of us can share the fruits of free enterprise with poor and vulnerable people on January 23. On February 6 Bob Woodward, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and associate editor of “The Washington Post” provides a behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of government, politics and the role of leadership.

Globe-trotting adventurer James Balog, internationally acclaimed photographer and the founder and

062-083 Arts _VBHB17.indd 80

director of the Earth Vision Institute and Extreme Ice Survey, shares imagery and insights that reveal how humanity is re-shaping the natural world on February 20.

The season ends March 13, 2017 with Sir Salman Rushdie, a celebrated writer who discusses fundamental freedoms and the attacks they face from religious extremism and political correctness.

3250 Riverside Park Dr. www.riversidelecturerseries.com ....................................................772-231-6990 THE EMERSON CENTER

The Emerson Center’s 2017 Celebrated Speaker Series kicks off on January 14 when retired four-star General Michael Hayden, former director of the CIA and

head of the National Security Agency, speaks on “Lessons for Tomorrow: How Terrorism Changes the Game.”

Hayden was on the frontline of the war on terrorism and the growing cyber challenge and a participant in some of the most telling events in American national security history. In February 4’s presentation, “Wealth & The Economy,” “Freakonomics” co-author Stephen J. Dubner invites us to take a critical look at our economic preconceptions and position ourselves to deal with inevitable changes. Michael Pollan’s discussion of the industrial food chain amounts to an indictment of modern agribusiness, which he says has lost touch with the natural cycles of farming. The result is a destructive and precarious agricultural system that has wrought havoc upon the diet, nutrition and the well-being of Americans. He speaks on February 25 in “America’s Food Chain: How It Broke. How It Can Be Fixed.” The season ends March 18 with plain-speaking and frequently outspoken Michael Oppenheimer as he brings to The Emerson Center the sum of several decades of scientific inquiry into climate change in his presentation

“The Climate: Changes in the Wind or Just Blowing Smoke?” Oppenheimer is chief scientist at The Environmental Defense Fund. In 2007, he was a member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

The Emerson Center also hosts the free Florida Humanities Series that features historian, journalist and songwriters who tell tales about the Sunshine State’s past. Kicking off the new year on January 12 is author and journalist Lynn Waddell with “Fringe Florida: The Unusual Subcultures of the Sunshine State.” Florida has long held a magical place in people’s imaginations; but in recent years, it’s also gained a reputation for being a place where people are a little different, if not strange. Waddell delves beyond the sensational headlines and takes audiences inside some of the state’s most eclectic and daring worlds, sharing her experiences in these worlds while researching her critically acclaimed book, “Fringe Florida: Travels Among Mud Boggers, Furries, UFOlogists, Nudists, and Other Lovers of Unconventional Lifestyles.”

On February 13, Susan Fisher Sterling, director of the National Museum of Women in the Arts will speak on “Women Artists: The Naked Truth.”

Sterling has built her career and the stature of the national museum around the message of equity for women through the example of excellence in the arts. Join her as she weaves the fascinating history of women who struggled to be recognized as important artists of their time.

Most people haven’t been lucky enough to find a doubloon, a ring or pieces of eight during their beach walks, but there are those who do. Optimistic treasure seekers continue to search sea and shore for fortunes believed to be on board the 11 Spanish ships that went down during the 1715 hurricane. In 1994 an off-and-on treasure hunter, diving in eight feet of water near the Sebastian Inlet, discovered $1 million worth of jewels and gold coins from one of those sunken ships. Kind of gives you hope, doesn’t it?

Round Island Park features hiking trails on the river and a beach on the ocean.

On Land Vero Beach pioneers and planners have made it a point to set aside land for parks and recreational areas. Some – Pocahontas Park, Jaycee Park, Humiston Park – have playground equipment while others have shaded picnic pavilions – Round Island Park, South Beach Park, Jaycee Park.

As well as offering facilities for simple relaxation, many of these areas provide a wide range of outdoor activities that include everything from boating, camping, fishing and horseback riding to kayaking, tennis and walking trails. Some parks also offer picnic tables and children’s playgrounds. See www.covb.org for City of Vero Beach Parks, www.ircgov.com for Indian River County Parks and www.floridastateparks.org for the state’s parks. You won’t be disappointed.

Like to get out in the fresh air? Wander through semi-wilderness?

Strike out on your own? Vero Beach and Indian River County have just the places for you.

THE ENVIRONMENTAL LEARNING CENTER

The Environmental Learning Center is another local favorite. The 64-acre campus on Live Oak Drive off the Wabasso Causeway has easy hiking trails that wind through palm hammocks, salt marshes and mangrove forests. Shady pavilions offer the perfect excuse to sit and stay awhile.

Waterfront Trail on the west side of the Indian River Lagoon off 79th Street and U.S. Hwy. 1. There, instead of what could have been the site of multiple riverfront residences, a scrub habitat, oak forest and mangroves have been preserved.

THE INDIAN RIVER LAND TRUST

ST. SEBASTIAN RIVER PRESERVE STATE PARK

The Indian River Land Trust promotes the preservation, conservation and improvement of natural resources and special places in Indian River County for the benefit of the general public and future generations and they have wonderful trails to travel. One of the favorites is the Toni Robinson

If you really want to rough it and take an extended hike, visit the St. Sebastian River Preserve State Park. You can hike until you drop – over 60 miles of trails in 22,000 acres of wilderness.

These trails are also open to mountain bikes and equestrians. If you decide to brave it, you’ll wander through forests

When you discover the Oslo Riverfront Conservation Area “ORCA,” you will be surprised because you are less than a mile from a shopping center and smack in the middle of a wilderness. ORCA has trails and boardwalks that meander through 298 acres of mature coastal hammock, scrubby flatwoods and wetlands. Some of the live oaks that dominate the hammock are hundreds of years old. Native plants include wild coffee, myrsine, marlberry, firebush, native wildflowers, saw palmetto, cabbage palms and a wide array of other species. The Hammock Loop trail is full of birds and wildlife while the Scrubby Pine Flatwoods trail is at a higher elevation and contains bromeliads, large sand pines, saw palmettos

T H E O F F I C I A L V E R O B E AC H H A N D B O O K

and native wildflowers. The “Awesome Pine” is located in this area and has been documented as the largest slash pine in the world! The Coastal Wetlands trail leads to a large wildlife observation tower over a pond, an observation platform and a canoe dock that connects to the Indian River Lagoon.

Just to the south of the main ORCA is the South Oslo Riverfront Conservation Area or “SORCA,” a scrubby flatwoods community with native songbirds, woodpeckers, squirrels and other wildlife. www.ircgov.com ....................................................772-778-7200 OTHER CONSERVATION AREAS

Other conservation areas open for public hiking include the Jungle Trail, now on the National Register of Historic Places, and the Pelican Island National Wildlife Refuge where you can come eye-to-beak with hundreds of birds.

Walking and cycling are popular on the Historic Jungle Trail.

The Vero Beach Municipal Marina offers modern conveniences and fuel for boaters.

On The Water If you’re a boating enthusiast, Vero Beach is the place to drop anchor. The Vero Beach Municipal Marina at Marker 139 on the Intracoastal Waterway has long been a popular winter address for northern boaters who live aboard. They also like the Vero Beach lifestyle so much that they end up buying a house and settling in permanently. Lucky us! And don’t forget the other marinas around town: Loggerhead, Sebastian Inlet, Fins and Capt’n Butcher’s.

084-103 Outdoors _VBHB17.indd 94

Fishing If you don’t have your own boat, fear not. A number of outstanding fishing guides – BIG EASY, CAPTAIN T. FRED’S, CAPT’N BUTCHER’S, ROGUE WAVE, SKIPPER SPORTFISHING, VERO BACKCOUNTRY, FISH VERO BEACH, and MIDDLETON’S FISH CAMP – offer river and off-shore

charters. Boat tours of all shapes and

sizes are just waiting for your call.

These charters are piloted by seasoned captains that know where the tarpon, snapper and grouper are biting on any given day. The options are endless.

By the way, the Sebastian Inlet State Park is known to be a premier saltwater fishing location, prompting serious, and not so serious, anglers to head for the jetties and closeby shore areas.

Surfing

If fishing is not your cup of tea, try an airboat tour at Blue Cypress Lake or in the Indian River Lagoon with CAPT. BOB’S

While surfing may not be your thing, it is for many residents and visitors. When “the surf’s up,” boards and their owners are ready to ride the waves. Those in the know head for the Sebastian Inlet next to the north jetty where a significant surf break creates waves that delight surfers of all ages. Over the years local and national surfing competitions have been held at the inlet. During the ‘80s and ‘90s while surfers were flying over waves, filmmakers were busy making surfing movies, none memorable. What remains memorable is that 13 years ago “Surfing” magazine named Sebastian one of the “15 Waves that Fuel Surfing’s Future,” but then we already knew that, didn’t we? Don’t forget Monster Hole located about 1/3 mile off the beach on the south side of Sebastian Inlet. The contour of the ocean floor rises up; and when the surf is big, the waves form long

Kayaking and Canoeing If taking to the water in a kayak or canoe is more your style, there are plenty of available launch sites – McWilliams Park, Round Island and Oslo Riverfront Conservation Area to name just a few. If you don’t own a kayak or canoe, not to worry as rental options abound. Check out ORCHID ISLAND BIKES AND KAYAKS and ADVENTURE KAYAKING. There’s nothing more fun than taking a kayak out on the lagoon.

The National Scholastic Surfing Association surf competition is held at Sebastian Inlet.

Paddleboarding And let’s not forget the hottest new water sport to come along – paddleboarding. Unlike surfing, you can paddleboard on oceans, lakes, rivers and lagoons. Vero Beach offers all of these exciting venues. Take a lesson or rent a board from the same folks who provide surf boards and surf lessons.

Take a paddleboard eco-tour or just get out on the water and have some fun and get a workout at the same time. It’s a great sport for the whole family. No prior experience is necessary.

Swimming If you love to swim, Vero Beach is the place to be. Not only is the ocean a favorite “swimming hole,” but we also have public pools at the North County Aquatic Center, Gifford Aquatic Center and Leisure Square. Modest fees apply.

The beaches don’t charge a dime, except at Sebastian Inlet State Park.

Take a thrilling ride with Skydive Sebastian.

Diving Vero Beach is a great place to snorkel and scuba dive. While we do not have the typical coral reefs that are found in the tropics, we do have reefs made of limestone and coquina rock.

Seaweeds and soft corals live on these rocks and provide habitat for a diverse range of sea life. In addition, we have four artificial reefs along the beaches of Indian River County, about 200 to 300 feet off shore. The first is located along the south beach of Vero Beach at a depth of 38 feet. The remaining three were placed in 1999 by the Indian River County Government and are located at depths of 66, 71 and 73 feet along the beach front of Vero

Beach. Not only do we have reefs, we also have the wreck of the Breconshire within easy swimming distance of the shore. And don’t forget the silver plate and gold coins that lie close to the beach, the result of the wreck of the Spanish treasure fleet in 1715. If you are interested in renting equipment or you want to take diving lessons, get in touch with DEEP SIX DIVE AND WATERSPORT and get ready to “take a dive.”

olf is such a large part of life in Vero Beach, it needed its own section. Because of our ideal climate, Vero Beach has come to enjoy a reputation as a golf mecca. Some of the top golf course designers in the world have blessed our county with extraordinary golf courses and, of course, we have a network of golf professionals ready to give lessons. A number of our courses are favorites of the United States Golf Association and the Florida Golf Association since both associations sponsor tournaments on our award-winning courses. In addition, six of the courses are Audubon International certified courses because of their attention to environmental concerns. The following is an overview of our county’s 19 courses – play them all if you can!

104-123 Golf _VBHB17 ALPHA.indd 106

Private Courses BENT PINE GOLF CLUB

The Bent Pine Golf Club has been described by Links Magazine as one of “Golf’s best kept secrets!” The course blends a picturesque landscape with a championship course. Designed by Joe Lee, the course is located on 220 acres of prime hammock land, surrounded

by Florida pines, citrus groves and ranch land with eight scenic lakes.

GRAND HARBOR GOLF & BEACH CLUB

Grand Harbor boasts two courses: the River Course and The Harbor Course.

The River Course was designed by Joe Lee and challenges the most seasoned player. The classic Pete Dye-designed Harbor Course is typical of a links style of tiered greens, undulating fairways and deep pot bunkers. A blend of grasses in the roughs encourages the use of a variety of clubs and a variety of shots.

INDIAN RIVER CLUB

The Indian River Club is laid out in gently rolling terrain, close enough to the Atlantic Ocean to enjoy ocean breezes and still maintain the feel of a Florida woodlands nature preserve.

The course was designed by Ron Garl, noted for his attention to the

JOHN’S ISLAND CLUB: NORTH & SOUTH

The John’s Island Club has two championship, 18-hole golf courses on the beachside. The North Course, designed by Pete Dye, is laid out around old Florida Oaks with great views of John’s Island Sound that leads to the Indian River. Jack Nicklaus and

Pete Dye designed the South Course that demands premium driving with its well-bunkered greens and water hazards.

Hawk’s Nest

JOHN’S ISLAND CLUB: WEST COURSE

The West Course is located on the mainland six miles from John’s Island Club on the barrier island and was the host to the 2015 USGA Mid-Amateur Championship. This 300-acre course was designed by Tom Fazio and built on a natural sand ridge that features stunning elevation changes.

It has been ranked among the most challenging courses in the country.

104-123 Golf _VBHB17 ALPHA.indd 110

Because it is built in a secluded area without home sites, members can enjoy its natural beauty and an array of wildlife. www.johnsislandclub.org ....................................................772-231-1700

HAWK’S NEST

Golf Course Architect Jim Fazio was commissioned in 1983 to design an 18-hole, par-72 course that would fit the “natural look” of the land with tall pine and oak trees abundant on the property. Because of this, Hawk’s Nest is one of the few “green courses” left in Florida. Long-needled pines, live oaks and nature line the fairways. This, combined with the sand ridge which

it was built on and which forms the boundaries of the fairways, make this a golfer’s dream challenge. Long holes, none exactly the same, and sand dunes along the fairways beckon a player’s ball. Hawk’s Nest, a Moorings Yacht & Country Club course, enjoys a reputation as one of the area’s finest courses.

As a certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary Program course, Orchid Island hosts a variety of wildlife in the

ponds and in the air, including white pelicans, egrets and spoonbills.

POINTE WEST COUNTRY CLUB

Rising from an old citrus grove, the course at Pointe West was developed in 1999. Striking bunker complexes were created to highlight subtle mounding, and some unique features were incorporated for several “risk/reward” situations. Most notably, the 18th

104-123 Golf _VBHB17 ALPHA.indd 114

fairway is traversed by a water feature just short of the green, making an exciting moonlighting-finishing hole.

QUAIL VALLEY GOLF CLUB

The Quail Valley 280-acre, 18-hole course was designed by Tommy Fazio and Nick Price and provides the perfect course to challenge all levels of play from hobbyists to the enthusiasts.

With rolling fairways and 60 acres of waterways, the course provides

multiple challenges. Quail Valley boasts elevations of up to 62 feet and is, by most accounts, the highest point in Indian River County.

RedStick Golf Club Riomar Country Club

REDSTICK GOLF CLUB

RedStick maintains a highly exclusive reputation with only 275 members and is strictly a golf club: no pools, no tennis courts, no dinners. Lying on a sand ridge that runs through the county, RedStick was designed by honorary member Rees Jones, one of America’s renowned golf course architects. The result? A course with sweeping fairways of Bermuda grass,

104-123 Golf _VBHB17 ALPHA.indd 116

surrounded by oaks and pines. Sixty acres of land were excavated to use for fill on the course and, as a result, created six ponds. The sand ridge is 38 feet above sea level and provides a rolling terrain that challenges any level of golfer.

RIOMAR COUNTRY CLUB

Built in 1919, Riomar Country Club is located in the heart of the central beach area, and is the oldest golf course in Vero Beach. It has seven holes that run along the Atlantic Ocean, more than any other course in Florida.

Although it underwent a massive renovation by Tom Fazio II and Nick Price in 2015, Riomar Country Club remains an “Old Florida” style course - generally

flat terrain covered in Bermuda grass, accentuated by tropical flora, water hazzards and plenty of sand.

The Vero Beach Country Club course was originally laid out in the 1920s.

Since the late 1990s, the layout and quality of the course have been enhanced. Fairway and green contouring has increased shot variety.

Each hole is distinct and challenges the golfer with a range of risk-reward

104-123 Golf _VBHB17 ALPHA.indd 118

strategies involving the wind, doglegs, strategically placed bunkers, oak and palm trees, lakes and perimeter canals, and greens. The result is a course of unusual variety.

WINDSOR

The 18-hole, links-style Windsor golf course was laid out by Robert Trent Jones Jr. in a traditional course design.

The greens are placed against a rolling panorama of Florida native trees that border the softly rolling fairways. The subtle par 72 course is unobstructed by housing and is appreciated more with

each round of play.

up the East Coast of Florida that was once used for mining operations. The second golf course is the Lakes Course, which opened in 1992. This layout features one of the toughest holes in all of South Florida, the par 4 14th. Players visit from around the world to take a

shot at its challenging island green.

The courses have earned a reputation as one of the finest public golf destinations in the entire state of Florida.

Wesley Campbell’ s Escovitch Red Snapper at Mo-bay Grill Serves 6

Escovitch, or Escabeche as it is known in Europe, is fish that has been seasoned, browned and served with a spicy vinegarvegetable dressing. If you can’t get snapper, any firm, meaty fish like salmon or tuna will work just as well.

Escovitch Dressing 2 cups apple cider vinegar 1 medium red pepper, julienned 1 medium green pepper, julienned 1 medium onion, diced finely 1 small carrot, peeled and julienned 1 ounce fresh ginger, julienned 1 Scotch bonnet pepper, chopped (adjust heat by removing the seeds)

8 ½ ¼ 2 1 6

pimento berries (allspice) teaspoon ground black pepper teaspoon kosher salt tablespoons brown sugar tablespoon soy sauce whole red snapper

Mo-Bay Seasoning 1 tablespoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon black pepper 1 teaspoon granulated garlic 1 teaspoon thyme

Heat the apple cider vinegar in a large saucepan, then add all dressing ingredients. Remove from heat and allow to marinate overnight.

Ask your fishmonger to clean and scale the snapper. Score the flesh with cuts 1½ inches apart between the pectoral fin and tail. Combine the seasoning ingredients and season fish on both sides. Lightly dust fish in flour then pan fry in medium-hot oil, cooking 4 to 5 minutes on each side until crispy. Drain fish and place on a platter. Pour room temperature vegetable dressing over fish and serve with starch of choice.

Shop the mainland or the island in Vero Beach.

The Joy of Shopping

A

day of shopping in Vero Beach is an adventure. Far from mass-marketed products found elsewhere, local shops offer unique, handmade and sophisticated items from around the world. One of the best things about shopping locally is the stressfree experience, due in part to the walkable shopping districts with parks and cafĂŠs. Ocean Drive even has three ice cream parlours for an afternoon treat!

The following list is an overview of the Vero Beach shopping experience – there are many more places to discover than we could possibly include here. One thing is certain, though: if you are looking for something special, you will find it in Vero Beach.

Shopping Districts Vero Beach Barrier Island NORTH HIGHWAY A1A

Pelican Plaza and The Village Shops Pelican Plaza is home to jewelry, gift and clothing shops, as well as a popular dry cleaner and barber shop. A gallery and liquor store are also found here, as well as professional services to help

with everything from skin care to computer problems. The adjoining Village Beach Market is a gourmet shop with an array of delectable treats. A visit to the Village Shops, northeast of Pelican Plaza, is like strolling in a small town, with an elegant collection of clothing and shoe shops, a fine art gallery, interior design services and accessories, an Italian market, a stationery store, spa services and a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating.

OCEANSIDE DOWNTOWN

Ocean Drive, Cardinal Drive and the eastern end of Beachland Boulevard This is a great setting for a day of leisurely strolling, shopping and dining next to the Atlantic Ocean. Tree-lined sidewalks with benches invite visitors to meander through this district, only steps away from the beach. The boutiques in this area are known for their one-of-a-kind and unusual products, alongside top international brands of apparel, jewelry and home goods. Hotels, restaurants, spas and professional services can also be found here, as well as a local post office.

Public beaches run parallel to this shopping district, and Humiston Park with its playground and picnic tables is perfect for families. Parking is available in two public parking lots and on the street. A Saturday morning farmers’ market on Ocean Drive has local produce, baked goods, handmade soaps and other unique gifts.

Vero Beach Mainland HISTORIC DOWNTOWN VERO BEACH

Vero Beach’s original downtown was the center of our community in the 1920s, but gradually lost prominence.

Now, however, it is experiencing a rebirth as fine art galleries, restaurants and original boutiques have moved in.

Galleries and businesses host the First Friday Gallery Stroll from 5 to 8 p.m. on the first Friday of every month.

MIRACLE MILE

western end of Route 60 in Vero Beach, as well as Home Depot, Lowe’s, Target, and many other national chain stores and restaurants.

ROYAL PALM POINTE

Originally the site of the Barber Bridge’s west terminus, Royal Palm Pointe is now a peninsula of shops, restaurants and residences culminating in a public riverfront park with a children’s play fountain. Marine, medical and professional services are also found here, surrounded by beautiful views of the

Indian River Lagoon. It’s another great place for walking, shopping and dining!

U.S. HIGHWAY 1

If you have spent any length of time on the east coast of this country, you are familiar with U.S. Highway 1 (sometimes referred to as the Post Road). In Vero Beach, as in most towns, this road is lined with fast food restaurants and gas stations. Here, however, independent boutiques, garden centers and local designers’ warehouse shops are thriving if you know where to look.

The area referred to as Miracle Mile is actually a series of adjoining shopping centers with two major supermarkets, restaurants, an independent book store and consignment shops, as well as specialty stores for pet owners and sports enthusiasts. Although not as relaxing as other shopping districts in Vero Beach, Miracle Mile is where everyone ends up for the necessities.

Ocean Drive’s The Beach Shop and Kemp’s Shoe Salon and Boutique have outlet boutiques in this district.

F

or 20 years Vero Beach Magazine has published articles about individuals who give of their hands, hearts, talents and treasures to help others. When asked why community service has been such an important part of their lives, the answer was almost always the same: “I get back more than I give.” While it’s not always easy to find the time to help others, when you do, the personal rewards are well worth it. You’ll not only be making a real difference to those who need support, you can make new friends and learn new skills. It’s been said that no matter how young or old you are, helping others can add more zest to your life.

The following list divides our local nonprofits into categories. Find one you like and join up. They will all appreciate your help!
