‘Well-known sportsfigure’ takes overColonial Four RVBy Michael [email protected]
Colonial Four RV park in Zephyrhills wassold last week, but who actually purchasedthe recreational vehicle park is clouded in abit of mystery.
The park, located at 6991 Fort KingRoad, sold for $875,000, according to anews release from Marcus & Millichap, areal estate brokerage company with an of-fice in Tampa. Dan Mulkey, the company’svice president of investment, would not dis-close any details on the buyer or seller,except to say, in a release, the new owner ofColonial Four is a “well-known sports figurelooking for a local investment.”
According to county property records,Bruce and Darlene Flansburg have ownedColonial Four since 2007, when they pur-chased the 5-acre, 57-site park popular withCanadian seasonal residents, for $700,000.On May 2, they signed the property over toa company known as White Marlin LLC,which lists no managers or other identifyinginformation in the state corporations data-base.
White Marlin was created just last March,and lists a physical address at a Pak Mail boxin New Tampa. That address also is publiclyused by two companies associated with for-mer NHL defenseman Stan Neckar, whoplayed for the Tampa Bay Lightning towardthe end of the team’s 2004 Stanley Cupplayoff run.

When war broke out in Europe and Asiain the 1940s, Pasco County was nothingmore than a small farming and citrus groupof communities.
But the people loved their country, andshowed it by signing up and heading to war.
In fact, one in eight Pasco residents wouldserve in the military during World War II, in-cluding Frank Ashbrook, the father-in-law toPasco County commissioner Ted Schrader.
“He was captured during the invasion ofNormandy, and spent 18 months in a prison-er war camp in Germany,” Schrader said.
FILE PHOTOThe Pasco County World War II Memorial has been a part of Dade City’s downtown attrac-tions since it was first dedicated in 1954, and has been a part of many ceremonies there,including the recent Fallen Officers memorial for law enforcement personnel killed in the lineof duty. A restored memorial will be rededicated on Flag Day, June 14.

It’s a wooden cabinet with several draw-ers, the index cards inside reminiscent ofthe kind used when libraries still had cardcatalogs.
But this cabinet doesn’t hold cardstelling visitors where to find books. Instead,it holds cards separating packages of seeds.
These aren’t just any seeds, however.They’re called heirloom seeds, and some ofthem had their start back in the 1800s, saidAra McLeod, who works at MorningstarFishermen, a business in Dade City that pro-motes sustainable living.
Unlike most seeds that are planted intoday’s fields and gardens, these heirloomseeds have not been genetically altered.Instead, they have been saved and passedalong for generations.
And now, through MorningstarFishermen’s new seed library, they are avail-able to seed library members for free.
There is a catch. Those joining the seedlibrary must agree to use only organic fertil-izer on the vegetables and flowers theygrow with these seeds. And they are askedto let some of their plants go to seed, sothey can help to restock the seed library.
McLeod, who oversees the seed library, isthrilled that she’s leading this new venture,which aims to help people produce theirown food.
“Here at Morningstar, we are about teach-ing people about sustainability,” McLeodsaid.
The company, located at 3336 Old St. Joe
Road, has been teaching people aboutaquaponics for years. Aquaponics is essen-tially the marriage between hydroponicsand aquaculture, allowing people to raise
fish, veggies and plants at thesame time.
It decided to branch out tohelp people become sustainablein other ways, too.
“We wanted to start a seed li-brary here to help ourcommunity to have access togood, quality food,” McLeod said.“It’s really, really important forcommunities to have access togood seeds. With it being free, itreally doesn’t matter what youreconomic status is.”
So far, fewer than a dozenpeople have signed up for theseed library. But McLeod’s enthu-siasm for the program has notdimmed.
“We have to start some-where,” she said, clearlypassionate about the project.“Seeds are life. The soil is life.Without good quality seeds, ourfood is not of good quality, so,when we eat it, it doesn’t sustainour bodies.”
She estimates about 200 vari-eties of seeds in the library,mostly donated by Seed SaversExchange, Baker Creek Seedsand some local families.
When people come toMorningstar Fishermen’s shop,
they can look through the cabinet drawersto choose seeds.

this beautiful song, but I couldn’t hear thewords. Everybody else is crying.”
In large spaces, such as church, it can beespecially difficult to hear because of back-ground noises, the Reeses said.
“The music overwhelms the talking, orthe people talking behind them, or childrencrying or laughing, or whatever,” Judith said.
That noise competes with the liturgy ofthe Mass.
“There are all kinds of accommodationsthey make for other disabilities, but veryfew accommodations for hearing loss,”Charlie said.
As the American population ages, theReeses expect hearing loops to becomemore common, much like wheelchair ramps,hand rails and handicapped parking spaces.
“This really has taken root in Europe,”Charlie said, noting Westminster Abbey has ahearing loop.
The hearing loop project at St. Timothytook the better part of two years, Judithsaid. It took time to get the equipment in-stalled and to fine-tune it, so it’s an effectiveway of helping people hear.
Rev. Kenneth Malley, pastor at St. Timothy,said he knows the project is appreciated bypeople of all ages who have hearing difficul-ties. He recalled one older woman tellinghim about a hearing loop system at OurLady of Lourdes church in Dunedin.
She had tears in her eyes, Malley said. Shetold the priest, “I could finally hear what wasgoing on.”
St. Timothy and Our Lady of Lourdeshave hearing loops, and Our Lady of Fatimain Citrus County is investigating the possibil-ity of adding one. The Diocese of St.Petersburg is unaware of any other churchwithin the diocese that has the technology,but some churches may have installed onewithout informing the diocese.
The project at St. Timothy took sometime, the Reeses said, but they think it’sworth the effort because it will help openpeople’s ears to the word of God.

Technology helps people hear the word of GodBy B.C. [email protected]
At some point in life, most people knowhow it feels to be out of the loop.
They’re sitting at a table in a restaurant,but they’re too far away to hear what iscausing the laughter erupting at the otherend of the table.
They’re at the edge of a crowd and can’thear what the speaker is saying.
Someone is singing on stage, but theycan’t make out the words.
Imagine if that was an everyday experi-ence.
That’s the kind of social isolation thatpeople with hearing difficulties often face.Even with hearing aids, it can be difficult forthem to hear in acoustically challengingplaces, such as a restaurant, a concert hall ora church.
But technology is available to helpchange that scenario in places where soundsystems are used. And recently, St. TimothyCatholic Church installed a hearing loop tohelp parishioners who have hearing difficul-ties become full participants in the liturgy.
Charlie and Judith Reese of JC Audiologycontributed the system components, whichcost about $8,000. The Reeses are parish-ioners, and Judith is an audiologist with anoffice at 1541 Dale Mabry Highway, Suite201, in Lutz.
Keith Thal and his friend, James Weeks,volunteered their time and expertise to in-stall and fine-tune the system. They both areprofessionals in the electronics field andknowledgeable in the science of sound,Judith said.
Chase White, the director of music at St.Timothy, also played a key role.
“St. Timothy is the first and only Catholicchurch in Hillsborough (County) that hasthis technology,” Charlie said. “I doubt thatthere are more than three other churches ofany denomination in Hillsborough that hasthis.”
A hearing loop, for lack of a better de-scription, is an antenna that is based aroundthe perimeter of a room or a building, Judithsaid. The antenna is linked to the sound sys-tem, and a person with a hearing aid thathas an active telecoil — or T-coil — can pickup the signal.
“The person puts their hearing aid in thereception mode, and whoever is speakingon the microphone, it comes right into theirears,” she said. “Also, it’s appropriately set forthem because it goes through their hearingaid, so it compensates for their problemareas for hearing.”
Hearing aids cannot be retrofitted to in-clude a T-coil, but many hearing aids havethem already, and their wearers simply areunaware of that fact, Judith said.
Those purchasing new hearing aids maywant to ask about the T-coil, she added, sothey can be activated in large spaces thatare acoustically challenging.
“The audiologist would set it at the levelthat’s going to work best for that person,”she said. “They may have a knob or a switch
or button on that device, to turn it on to thehearing loop channel, as it were.”
The technology has been around fordecades.
“I think it’s about half of the hearing aidsthat are fit that have telecoils in them,”Judith said
It’s not a cost issue, she said. People justneed to know to ask about it when they gettheir hearing aids.
“The hearing loop technology is just onemore tool in our box to help people whohave hearing impairments to live, full activelives,” Judith said.
At St. Timothy, there are two hearingloops. One goes around the chapel, on aledge. The other, in the main sanctuary, wasput in the conduit holding other sound sys-tem wiring.
“St. Timothy, in particular, is a veryacoustically challenging structure becauseof the architecture,” Judith said. “It’s kind of abasilica style with a big high-rounded ceil-ing, all hard surfaces, terrazzo tile, hard walls,lots of windows and metal. Even for peoplewho have good hearing, it can be tough.”
“There’s no carpet, no anything to ab-sorb the sound,” Charlie said. “It’s all glass,marble and metal. So, that makes everythingbounce off.”
Hearing loss, in some ways, is worse thanother disabilities that are visible, because ittakes people away from society, Judith said.
“You can’t engage,” she said.And, at church — where people come
for spiritual refreshment and guidance —they can feel left out.
“It’s very frustrating,” Judith said. They’llsay, “Everybody else is laughing at what thepastor said, but I didn’t hear it. They sang
COURTESY OF ST. TIMOTHY CATHOLIC CHURCHSt. Timothy Catholic Church’s architectural design is acoustically challenging because of itshigh ceilings, hard surfaces and glass. A hearing loop has been installed to enable peoplewith hearing difficulties to be full participants in the liturgy.

About this timeevery year, I write acolumn about ourannual circulationand readership audit.I use this audit to talkabout the number ofpapers we print anddeliver, and more im-portantly, how many
people regularly read The Laker or LutzNews.
In the free newspaper industry,Circulation Verification Council has beenverifying circulation and readership since1992. Today it audits more than 2,000 pub-lications with more than 55 million incirculation, including The Laker and LutzNews.
Well, it’s audit time again, and our num-bers are even better than they were a yearago. Our circulation has increased by 3.8percent to 42,600, and our readershipgrew by 3 percent to give us 79 percenthousehold penetration.
Most newspapers would be thrilledwith 60 percent household penetration —a percentage most publishers have notseen since before the Internet explosionof news. For our papers to be at 79 per-cent household penetration is enviable,and one we’re very proud to report.
To put our circulation growth in per-spective, earlier this month most dailynewspapers in Florida reported circulationdrops by the auditing company they use.Close to home, the Tampa Bay Times re-ported its mid-week circulation was down7 percent, while The Tampa Tribuneshowed no growth after accounting forthe circulation gain of a weekly paper itbought in Clearwater April 2013.
As proud as we are about our audit andthe gains we’ve made this past year, I real-ize you may think these numbers a bit
boastful and not really relevant to your life.It probably doesn’t matter to you
whether we throw 10,000 papers or50,000, just as long as your paper isthrown in your driveway or dropped atyour newsstand every Wednesday. You getto decide each week if you want to takethe time to read the stories and look at theads from local businesses.
It’s our job to make sure your paperhas stories and information that are rele-vant and you find interesting to read. Andit’s our job to make sure you can count onyour paper to be delivered every week soreading it becomes a habit.
In addition to circulation verification,the audit gives us demographical informa-tion about our readers, which we use tochoose the stories we write.
We know that 57 percent of our readersare women, that 42 percent are between theages of 35 and 54, and another 41 percentare over 55. Our readers are well educated(74 percent have attended or graduatedfrom college) and affluent (30 percent havehousehold incomes above $100,000, and an-other 20 percent above $75,000).
The audit also surveys readers and askswhat types of stories they want to read.That’s why we write a lot about growthand development, things to do and storiesabout people and organizations in ourcommunities. We’ve worked hard this pastyear to bring you more stories about top-ics that interest you.
This year’s audit is, as they say, proof inthe pudding that we’ve improved. It’s inde-pendent confirmation that we’re doing agood job, and that the changes we’vemade in our news coverage this past yearhave resulted in increased readership.
And this is tremendously gratifying tomy staff and I because we love what wedo. Nothing is more emotionally satisfyingthan to know that our hard work is appre-ciated, and that we make a difference inthe community where we work and live.

The Laker/Lutz News Staff Report
The Crisis Center of Tampa Bay is launch-ing a new program, “Men Stopping ViolenceAgainst Women,” the group hopes will en-gage men and boys in the effort to endgender-based violence.
The Crisis Center locally has been at theforefront of working with creating partner-ships between men and women that addressgender equality and the negative conse-quences of unequal power relationships.
“While we know that both men andwomen are perpetrators of domestic abuseand sexual assault, we can’t ignore statisticsthat indicate the majority of this abuse iscommitted by men,” said David Braughton,president and chief executive of the CrisisCenter, in a release. “We know that targetedanti-violence education is key in reducinggender-based violence in our community.”
The program is a concentrated effort tobuild a network of leaders committed to en-
gaging men in a community effort to end vi-olence. It is funded by a grant from theVerizon Foundation that allows for sixmonths of grassroots mobilizing.
To help launch the program, the CrisisCenter has brought in consultant BenAtherton-Zeman, a word-renowned advocateand educator in violence prevention. He isthe spokesman for the National Organizationfor Men Against Sexism, and is a public speak-er on issues of violence prevention.
His talks have taken place at militarybases, colleges, high schools, public theaters,conferences, churches and juvenile deten-tion facilities, according to a release.Atherton-Zeman also has worked as a pre-vention educator for rape crisis centers,domestic violence programs and state coali-tions.
Those people and organizations interest-ed in becoming involved with “MenStopping Violence Against Women” can callthe Crisis Center at (813) 969-4983.

Crisis center launches anti-violence initiative
By Helene RubensteinGrand Horizons
Many of our residents return to theirsummer homes, and some others takemotor trips for extended period of times.
But then again, there are many residentswho stay year-round at Grand Horizons, andthe number is growing constantly.
Back at Grand Horizons, there are stillmany functions going on. In addition toshuffleboard that is scheduled for everyMonday, Wednesday and Friday, there arenow pool exercises that also take place onthe same days. The hard part is the fact thatyou have to choose between the two.
These pool exercises are good, as theynot only cool you off, but it is a healthy wayto keep in shape. During the summermonths, Judy Ellsworth hosts the pool exer-cises.
We still have bingo every Tuesday night,and this is when people show up, purchasecards, bring “lucky charms” to place in frontof them, and hope to be a big winner of theevening. Even if they are not the winner fora certain week, they have fun playing andconversing with others.
The hosts for bingo night are Doug andLuAnne Taylor.
Of course, dominoes are still playedevery Monday night. This is a fun game, andthere is more concentration to it than youthink. The main thing is to keep the traingrowing.
Residents still meet every Wednesdaymorning for coffee and doughnuts, andalso to get the up-and-coming news. Everyother week, we have our blood pressuretaken, and it’s something important to
keep track of.There was a Ladies Lunch Bunch on May
6. I usually look forward to these as they tryto go to a different place each month. Thistime, the women went to the Island BreezeCuban Café, hosted by Joyce Bell.
I would have loved to have joined them,but it is a big drive from Connecticut. GuessI will have to wait until I return.
Our monthly lunch connoisseurs were atGolden Corral May 9, hosted by Al andSandy Lindke. I heard from Sandy, who saidthere were 24 people, and all had a goodtime in the Tuttle Room. They spent 90 min-utes socializing and eating.
The quilters had their last meeting inMay, and will resume again in October. Theymade stars for May, and will use them duringthe next meeting for their next project.Wonder what it will be?
There was a Memorial Day picnic May26 at the community center. I spoke withCarol Wilcox, one of the coordinators of thisfunction, and she told me the event startedwith Terry Gardner officiating. After thePledge of Allegiance, our disc jockey resi-dent Gary Wilcox played “The Star-SpangledBanner,” as performed by the U.S. Air ForceCeremonial Band.
After that, and original version of “GodBless America,” done by the legendary KateSmith, was played.
Terry said a few words about our armedforces, and all attending veterans were askedto stand. “Taps,” by the Arlington CemeteryCeremonial Band, was played in memory ofour deceased veterans.
The event drew 87 residents, and thecommunity center was well-decorated forthe event. Rich Lydecker did the hamburgerand hot dog grilling, and he sure had hishands full because as soon as he startedcooking, the rain and wind came in fullforce.
It was quite a challenge, but it turned outfine. The wind fueled the fire on the outsidegrill.
Besides the hamburgers and hot dogs,there also was a potluck with plenty ofwonderful food available like potato salad,macaroni salad, fruit salad, baked beans,coleslaw, macaroni and cheese and relish
trays. There also were a lot of desserts — theSocial Club provided a large cake.
Gary Wilcox and some residents stayedfor dancing and music.
There are these activities and more,enough to satisfy anyone. You can be as busyas you wish to be at Grand Horizons.

As the Pasco County school district shiftsto a more rigorous set of educational stan-dards, Superintendent Kurt Browning hasbeen making the rounds to explain thechanges to parents.
During his most recent stop at WiregrassRanch High School — the final of 13 com-munity meetings — Browning told parentsthat the district must change the way teach-ers teach and students learn. He also calledfor greater involvement by parents to helpprepare students for entering school and toreinforce learning at home.
The district’s current performance mustimprove, Browning said, especially since thedistrict is ranked 34th out of the state’s 67districts.
“I’m not the least bit happy with 34,”Browning said.
Society has changed and the districtmust change too to meet its goal of produc-
ing students who are ready for college, ca-reers and life, Browning said.
“We’ve got to make a connection be-tween what’s happening in the real worldand in the classroom,” Browning said.
Along those lines, the district is shiftingto Common Core State Standards and rais-ing the bar on expectations. The standardsdefine what students should know as theyproceed through school in order to gradu-ate from high school fully prepared to entercollege and the work force.
“We’re embracing a new way of teachingand learning,” said Rayann Mitchell, a seniorsupervisor in the division of curriculum, as-sessment and instruction.
The new standards are causing teachersto think differently about the way theyteach, Browning said.
Instead of standing at the front of theclassroom lecturing, teachers are now push-ing for more collaboration between students

Pasco County Schools’ $1.3 million sum-mer school program this year will serve6,580 students. That’s an increase of 1,820over last summer’s rolls, according to districtofficials.
This year’s programs also will reachyounger children, and will give older stu-dents more time to work on recoveringcourse credits.
School board member Steve Luikart ap-plauded the expanded program.
“The need is there,” Luikart said. “We’redoing everything we can to help more kids.”
The district is piloting new programs forkindergarteners and first graders focusingon literacy, and for second graders empha-sizing mathematics.
The literacy pilot will serve about 390students, and the mathematics pilot willserve about 400 children. The students willcome from Title 1 schools, which are
schools that qualify for federal funding be-cause they have a large percentage ofchildren from poor families.
Another pilot will focus on science, tech-nology, engineering, art and mathematics,otherwise known as STEM. It will serve ap-proximately 45 third- and fourth-gradestudents from Fox Hollow, Schrader, andGulf Highlands elementary schools, and willbe held at Gulf Highlands.
The district’s summer reading camp willcontinue to target third graders. About 700children are expected to receive the addi-tional help. The media centers at each of thesummer camp locations will be open to allstudents on those days.
The district also will be using migrantcamps for kindergarten through 12th-graders at eight east Pasco schools, to helpclose the achievement gap.
The program will serve about 45 stu-dents, an increase of 15 from last year.
A program aimed at giving children achance to learn through a variety of environ-
mental experiences also is being offered to stu-dents from Title 1 schools. About 600 studentsfrom Title 1 schools will visit Safety Town,Energy Marine Center, Starkey Ranch, caves,and The Florida Aquarium through the PascoEnvironmental Adventure Camp Experience.
The district also is providing additionalhelp to middle school students who havenot met the requirements to be promotedto the next grade. The district’s course re-covery programs have been extended fromhalf-days to full-days to give students moretime to master essential content.
The district is providing this opportunityfor students to get back on track to up to100 students per Title 1 school, and up to 50students at other schools.
Courses also will be available for highschool students needing to recover credits,with seniors being given the highest priori-ty for those opportunities.
The district also will offer summerschool for exceptional student educationprograms for students who have individual
education plans that call for summer in-struction.
The district will serve summer meals atlocations where more than 50 percent ofthe students are eligible for free or reduced-price meals during the regular school year.District staff members will serve breakfast,lunch and a snack to children through age18.
Transportation also will be provided tosummer programs for students who meetthe district’s requirements.
Teachers can upgrade their skills in thedistrict’s Secondary Literacy Symposium forsixth- through 12th-grade teachers. Teacherswill work in collaborative groups to deepentheir learning related to the EnglishLanguage Arts instructional shifts of thenewly adopted Florida Standards.
Other teachers also will have a chance tostrengthen their content knowledge of thestandards at the 2014 K-8 MathematicsInstitute and at the High SchoolMathematics Institute.
Pasco County Schools expands summer programs
Long before Interstate 4 slicedthrough a swath of Florida, andDisney theme parks put Kissimmee
on the map, there was an attraction in LakeWales that beckoned to visitors to partakeof its beauty.
Bok Tower Gardens, deemed one ofAmerica’s finest gardens, offers visitors thechance to step away from the world’s caresand savor the handiwork of nature.
The National Historic Landmark is wortha visit for people who enjoy music, architec-ture, history, wildlife, plants and flowers.
This is a place that offers a feeling ofserenity, as you walk along the mulchedpaths that meander through spaciousgrounds of oaks, palms, azaleas, irises andcamellias.
The garden was a gift to the Americanpeople from Edward W. Bok, a Dutch immi-grant who became editor of The LadiesHome Journal and won a Pulitzer Prize forhis autobiography.
“He wanted to make a place where peo-ple could just relax and get away from thegrind of the world,” said David Price, presi-dent of Bok Tower Gardens. “Bok wanted aquiet place where people could come andsit and enjoy the sounds of birds and kind offind themselves.”
An estimated 75,000 people attendedthe formal dedication on Feb. 1, 1929, wherePresident Calvin Coolidge delivered an ad-dress. The National Broadcasting Company,which would later become known as NBC,provided national coverage through ahookup with a Gainesville radio station.
Before Bok decided to transform thespot into a place of beauty, not everyonewas sold on his vision.
“There were a lot of naysayers who saidyou couldn’t plant on a sand hill and itwould be hard to keep things alive,” Pricesaid.
But Bok commissioned famed landscapearchitect Frederick Law Olmsted Jr., to de-sign the garden. After Olmsted’s work waswell on its way, Bok revealed his plans for acarillon tower, inspired by the carillon tow-ers of his childhood in the Netherlands.
He hired Milton B. Medary ofPhiladelphia to design the 205-foot towerthat became the architectural centerpiece ofthe garden.
Constructed of pink and gray marble andtan coquina stone, the tower houses 60bells, ranging in weight from 16 pounds to
12 tons. A carillonneur plays the bells bystriking wooden keys that tug on a wire thatactivates the clapper of the correspondingbells.
“The tower complements the serenity ofthe garden,” Price said. “It’s a neo-gothicstyle. It has almost sort of a spiritual quality.”
Nearly 150,000 visitors drop by BokTower Gardens each year, with about 60percent of those guests traveling more than50 miles to get there, Price said.
Some visitors sign a guest book in a smallbuilding called Window by the Pond, where
they can sit to gaze through a picture win-dow to observe wildlife. The visitors comefrom diverse places, but seem to share a com-mon appreciation of the Lake Wales gem.
“Came here for an hour, will spend theday here,” jotted a visitor from California.
“Best day in Florida,” scribbled a NewYorker.
“Beautiful, tranquil, spiritual,” wrote a visi-tor from Rhode Island.
“Peaceful, lovely and a real treat to visit,”opined a New Mexico guest.
Attendance fluctuates throughout theyear, with January through April drawing thebiggest crowds.
No matter when visitors drop in, though,there’s plenty to see.
“We plan for year-round color and inter-est,” Price said.
The camellias, for instance, bloom in falland winter, while azaleas blossom in spring.A table outside the visitor center displays acollection of vases holding cuttings to letguests know what’s in bloom.
There’s an interesting display inside thevisitor center detailing Bok’s life, there’s afilm that tells the attraction’s story, and thereare numerous displays about the garden,area wildlife and the carillon.
Pinewood Estate, a 20-roomMediterranean-style mansion, also is open forself-guided tours for an additional charge.
From its beginning, Bok Tower Gardenshas sought to be someplace special. Besidesbringing in Olmsted and Medary, Bok alsohired Lee Lawrie of New York, Samuel Yellinof Philadelphia, and J.H. Dulles-Allen of the
Enfield Pottery and Tile Works inPennsylvania to work on the project.
Lawrie designed sculptures to be execut-ed in marble. Yellin made wrought-ironpieces for the tower’s interior and bridge.He also created a series of panels on thetower’s massive brass door, recounting thebiblical story of creation.
Dulles-Allen did the tile work on eightgrilles enclosing the bell chamber.
While enjoying its rich history, BokTower Gardens is mindful of a need to re-main relevant during changing times, Pricesaid. Along those lines, it has completed a20-year master plan, and will begin work onthe first phase this summer. Initial changeswill include additional gardens, work to re-store a sand hill and new surfacing on keypaths to make it easier to get around.
Some things, however, will not change.When Bok Tower Gardens opened, Price
said, “peace and tranquility was our theme.”Some things, it seems, never go out style.

WESLEY CHAPEL/NEW TAMPA EDITION

While a development review committee
headed by Pasco County administrator
Michele Baker was focused on how fast
boats should travel on a private lake, Bobbi
Smith had a much bigger concern about a
proposed new community near Caliente
Resorts in Land O’ Lakes.
“The thing is truly the safety issue of get-
ting in and getting out,” said Smith, who lives
on a small rural road just off U.S. 41 in the
community of Silver Lakes. That street, bare-
ly wide enough to hold a single car, could
carry traffic from another 100 houses if
Southern Crafted Homes is allowed to build
on more than 68 acres around Curve Lake.
The land is owned by John and Theresa
Edwards, and is filled with old orange groves
at the gravel end of Fletch Road. About 40
homes are currently located near the lake
on Fletch and Barcellona roads, which all
exit to a busy, four-lane Land O’ Lakes
Boulevard. And even with the smaller num-
ber of homes, there’s no traffic light, so cars
typically back up on Barcellona as traffic
looks to get out on the busy thoroughfare.
“There’s no way you can have all those
homes, and have just one road to get out,”
Smith said. But if Southern Crafted Homes is going
to build homes, they’ll also have to build up-
graded streets along Fletch and Barcellona
that will accommodate higher traffic loads,
Baker said during a recent development re-
view meeting. Upgrades would include two
distinct lanes of traffic, and even curbs.
The new community also could be re-
quired to consider building roads across
neighboring properties, known as intercon-
nects, which would link the new Edwards
community to Caliente Boulevard to the
northwest and Ehren Cutoff to the east.
However, those roads won’t happen until
neighboring parcels are developed into
homes, and Smith and others already living
in Silver Lakes say that development there
could be decades off, if ever.
That brings the focus back to Fletch
Road, which was partially paved in the late
1990s when the Silver Lakes community
was built. A traffic analysis says Fletch is in
good shape, county officials said, so
Southern Crafted wouldn’t have to do any-
thing with the paved portion of the road.
Baker, however, was concerned that a 15-
year-old road shouldn’t be ignored in an
upgrade, especially if traffic is going to in-

Writing a book is often a difficult
process. Finishing one can be an exhausting,
emotional ordeal for the author that be-
comes a real challenge to complete.
But it wasn’t like that for Zephyrhills resi-
dent Nancy Carroll McEndree. It was much,
much worse.“I went into (post-traumatic stress disor-
der) every chapter I wrote,” McEndree said.
“I sat in my chair or in my office and I wept
uncontrollably. I ended up in the hospital.”
To write “Remembering Jim: From
Violence, Abuse and Terror to Joy
Everlasting” — a book chronicling her late
brother’s difficult upbringing, bottoming out
as an absent husband and father, and eventu-
al transformation to an active person of faith
— McEndree had to go back to the begin-
ning of their lives. And that meant dealing with her own
childhood, which was filled with memories

Fletch and Barcellona roads are the only
way Silver Lakes residents can get out onto
Land O’ Lakes Boulevard, a four-lane
expressway without a traffic light. If another
100 homes are built, some existing residents
fear the current streets won’t be able to han-
dle the increased traffic loads.

There’s a lot more to the portrait of Kris
Keppel than meets the eye.
No doubt the pencil drawing is an excel-
lent likeness of the Land O’ Lakes coach, who
has led the high school’s track and cross-
country teams for more than two decades.
The quality of the work is so good that a
professional artist judging U.S. Rep. Gus
Bilirakis’ Congressional Art Competition
deemed it best of show.
By winning the competition, Nichols will
get to travel to Washington, D.C., with one
of his parents. They’ll get a tour of the White
House and Capitol building, and will get to
have lunch in the Congressional dining
room. His art will be in the Capitol building

Trish Trout can scratch an item off her
bucket list.The Wesley Chapel woman completed
the 118th Boston Marathon on April 21, fin-
ishing the 26.2-mile course in 6 hours and
14 minutes.It was a day that she’ll never forget.
“I was in the center of the Boston
Marathon,” Trout said. “You’re a rock star for
a day. It’s like everybody’s your best friend.”
It came a year after bombings rocked the
event, and security was tight, Trout said.
Military police, Boston police and other law
enforcement officers were stationed about
every 150 yards along the route.
Helicopters hovered over the crowds.
Armored trucks blocked roads. Bomb-sniff-
ing dogs walked through the crowds, Trout
added.“My cheering section could not get to
the finish line because it was lockdown.
Even VIP ticket holders were kept out,” she
said.Despite the heavy security, the atmos-
phere was festive.“It was a beautiful day. The energy was
unreal,” Trout said. “At times, it was breathtak-
ing, just seeing all of those people in
support, and all of the runners. All ages, all
shapes and sizes. It was awesome.”

Motorists driving on U.S. 41 in Lutz will
notice lane closures while workers com-
plete a $5.4 million waterline project.
But even after the waterline work is
done, traffic disruptions on the six-lane
highway that cuts through Lutz will contin-
ue. The Florida Department of Transportation
will do a resurfacing project on U.S. 41, from
Linnwood Drive to north of County Line
Road, through Lutz. Plans call for resurfacing 7.4 miles of
roadway. Other improvements include intersec-
tion upgrades for pedestrian improvements
and bicycle lanes along the entire length of
the project.The railroad crossing south of Crystal
Lakes Road will be reconstructed as well,
which will require a temporary detour, ac-
cording to FDOT spokeswoman Kris
Carson.Design for the project was completed in
March. The work is expected to begin in the
winter, Carson said. The design work cost
$2.3 million.The resurfacing and other improvements
will cost an estimated $11.5 million, but
those figures may change as the project pro-
gresses, Carson said.

More than a decade after she led a cru-
sade to lower new business advertising
signs in Pasco County, Kathryn Starkey is
gearing up to bring the “grandfathered” ones
up to code.The county commissioner says it’s time
her colleagues start looking into enforcing
the sign laws — which typically limit sign
height at 11 feet — uniformly across Pasco,
including those signs that pre-date the 2003
changes to the ordinance. Starkey, however,
says she won’t push it without trying to find
at least some help for business owners, who
would have to invest in new signs.
“One of the biggest complaints I get is
the old signs that are still up, so we got to
figure out a way to help those businesses
bring those signs to our new look,” Starkey
said. “It’s difficult. It’s a financial investment,
but I think we should incentivize them to
bring them up to the current code.”
How to incentivize those businesses is
still a big question mark, but one possibility
could be offering small grants or even low-
interest microloans to help defray the costs,
Starkey said. Businesses with grandfathered signs have
been allowed to keep them as long as they
are not changed in a way that would make
them become “more non-conforming” to the
ordinance. After 11 years, some of those
signs are starting to show their age, and are
looking more and more out of place in areas
where ground-level, or monument, signs
have become the norm.
Starkey’s original goal was to prevent the
growing Wesley Chapel area from becoming
Pasco exploring bringing all advertising signs to the ground

As the speaker wrapped up his talk, Land
O’ Lakes High School students streamed
down to the front of the auditorium to shake
his hand and pose with him for photos.
They wanted a personal encounter with
Philip Gans, a man who survived the hor-
rors of the Holocaust during World War II.
Gans was at the high school to share his
story, so others won’t forget the atrocities
committed by the Nazis.
“Your children will never have a chance
to see a concentration camp survivor,” Gans
said, speaking to teachers and students from
U.S. history, world history and several other
classes.
Social studies teacher Whitney Miller
arranged the visit, saying it’s important for
students to use the most primary source of
information they can receive.
Gans, now 86, said his life in Amsterdam
began as a happy one.
“We had a good life,” he said. “Dad had his

Big Storm offers big brew as beeroperations fermentBy Michael [email protected]
It all started simple enough.
Mike Bishop and Clay Yarn wanted to es-
cape their stuffy office jobs, so they leased
some industrial space in Odessa with the
hopes of brewing a little bit of beer, and
sharing it with anyone who happened to
discover their operation.
Instead, a 200-barrel operation exploded
into a 5,000-barrel one in the span of two
short years. And it might not be long before
Big Storm Brewing Co. hits the 100,000-bar-
rel mark. “I never thought when we started that
we would ever need anything more than
this little shop,” said Bishop, who lives in
Land O’ Lakes. “We just thought we would
make boutique beers, and make enough to
pay the bills and give us a little money on
the side. But that was not our destiny. People
just wanted our beers.”
In a short time, Big Storm grew from two
employees to 16. Once they find bigger
quarters somewhere in central Pasco
County — they are looking for up to 50,000

One of those companies is Neckar Hockey,a youth sports training company Neckar sayshe runs with his wife. However, Neckar alsouses the address for another company, MobileCigar Lounge Co., which — according to itswebsite — is co-owned with popular retiredLightning winger Dave Andreychuk.
Neckar, who was first traded to theLightning in 2001 in a trade that also includ-ed popular goalie Nikolai Khabibulin, toldThe Laker last week that he is not the newowner of Colonial Four. He said he alsotalked to his business partner, who hewould only identify as another former hock-ey player, who said he wasn’t the new
owner, either.It was unclear if Andreychuk was the
partner Neckar spoke to.However, Neckar was unable to explain
why White Marlin was using the same PakMail box address as his other companies.
Colonial Four is geared toward the 55and older crowd, and dates back to the1970s. It has a mix of both seasonal and per-manent residents, and the new owner— whoever that may be — has plans to im-prove the community even more, Mulkeysaid.
“His plans include bringing in additionalpermanent units, thereby stabilizing thepark’s annual income,” he said, in a release. “Ifeel confident he will be pleased with thispurchase.”

Students bowled over with funThe more than 900 students of Woodland Elementary School participated in special fieldtrips to go bowling at Pin Chasers, 6816 Gall Blvd., in Zephyrhills.
Ashbrook’s name is one of 1,855 countyresidents listed on the Pasco County WorldWar II Memorial at the Historic Dade CityCourthouse. This weekend will mark the 60thanniversary of the memorial’s dedication, andSchrader will lead a rededication ceremonyJune 14 that will include the official unveilingof a new, more permanent granite memorial.
The granite slabs replace the originalwood panels that have deteriorated signifi-cantly since the memorial’s first dedicationin 1954.
“The courthouse is where my office is,and I would come in every day to hear wehad some vandalism or a skateboarder hit it,and we had to call (the facilities depart-ment) to come and make the necessaryrepairs,” Schrader said. “It was really just thatit was time we did something different.”
Schrader reached out to then assistantcounty administrator Dan Johnson, and theywere able to secure seed money of $25,000from Pasco County officials, and another$15,000 from Dade City. The rest of the$40,000 cost would be made up from pri-vate donations that Johnson would gather.
In the end, however, the memorial costless than the estimate, and the final price tagwas an even split between public moneyand private donations.
The rededication ceremony will begin at11 a.m., Saturday in front of the courthouse,37918 Meridian Ave., in Dade City. Schraderwill emcee the event, and will be join byU.S. Rep. Gus Bilirakis, R-Palm Harbor, whowill present a special flag.
Of all the people who served, a vast ma-jority of them did return home, includingAshbrook. Just under 40 soldiers from PascoCounty died in the line of duty.
However, seven decades is a long time,and many of the returning veterans fromWorld War II have been lost over the years.
“Unfortunately, they are reaching an agewhere they are not going to be with usmuch longer,” Schrader said. “It was impor-tant for those who are still alive and for theirfamily members that we make sure this me-morial is here forever.”
Joining Schrader in the bandstand thememorial adorns are Florian Gude andStanley Burnside. Both have their names onthe wall, and still live in the area.

“All of the drawers are divided out intofamilies. In gardening, there’s nine differentfamilies,” McLeod explained. “In each family,you have the different types of vegetables orflowers.
“You just see what type of plant youwant to grow. You open the drawer and youthumb through it. You can see the bean thatyou want to grow. There’s a little packet be-hind it. There’s the growing information onthe back of it.”
Once they find their packet, they bring itup to a desk, fill out a form, and head home
to start planting.“You grow it. Save some of the seeds for
yourself and some for the library and bringthem back,” McLeod said.
Some people may have no earthly ideahow to begin, but there are books, online in-formation and low-cost classes that canhelp, she said.
Nobody should feel intimidated.“It doesn’t matter if you don’t know any-
thing,” McLeod said. “The only thing that youneed to start is a desire.”

For us, healing isn’t just about mending the body. We look
at you as a whole human being, addressing your mental,
physical and spiritual health. That’s why, in addition
to traditional medical services, we offer prevention
and wellness programs like an outdoor walking trail
and certifi ed diabetes education. As the only faith-based,
not-for-profi t hospital in the area, our goal is to provide
holistic care for people of all faiths. It’s a difference that’s
evident in everything we do.
We care for our patients — mind, body and spirit.
Healing for the whole person.
