No quick fix for flood problem


By Cindy Monk
A Public Forum Meeting
headed by Senator J.D.
Alexander was held last
Thursday Nov. 17 to discuss
solutions to the flood issues
still plaguing residents living
on or near Crooked Lake,
Clinch Lake, and Reedy Lake.
The meeting drew many
City, County and State offi-
cials: Polk County Commis-
sioner Randy Wilkerson, Polk
County Director of Natural
Resources Jeff Spence, South-
west Florida Water Manage-
ment District Representative
Brett Cyphers, the Board
members of Southeast Polk
Citizens for Lake Manage-
-ment, Frostproof Mayor
Damon Nicholson and all City
Council members.
A list of permanent


drainage alternatives was pro-
vided by Chastain Skillman
for the Lake Clinch/Lake
Reedy connector and distrib-
uted to all. Cost estimates
ranged from $1.4 to $3.8 mil-
lion for proposed solutions,
none of which at this time are
feasible. Further studies of
each of the lakes are needed
and funding obtained before
a decision can be made.
The water levels set for the
lakes by SWFWMD in 1984
must be maintained,
although water levels were
not considered for Clinch and
Reedy when a decision was
made by less than a handful
of officials to 'clean the ditch'
from Crooked to Clinch to
relieve rising water levels in
Crooked Lake, thus causing
flooding. Several Frostproof


residents lost homes and
property. Only now, is there a
requirement to maintaining
inflow and outflow levels, as
well as protocol to follow in
order to implement a plan to
alleviate the flooding.
Several residents attending
the meeting couldn't help but
show their frustration and dis-
appointment over the repeti-
tive response, meeting after
meeting, from SWFWMD and
the County.
Senator J.D. Alexander
said his hope is to come up
with a short term solution.
The senator is personally
committed to being involved.
At the conclusion of the meet-
ing he said he will get back
with the residents of Frost-
proof by the second week in
January.


way, walk south to enjoy a pio-
neer Christmas at the Frost-
proof Historical Museum.
Many other businesses are sure
to join in the festivities, so
check next week's Frostproof
News.
The grand finale of the day
will be the Frostproof Christmas
parade, which begins at 7 p.m.
and runs from 5th Street north
to B Street along Scenic High-
way. Santa's sleigh will stop in
front of O'Hara's Restoration to
pull the winning ticket for the
Frostproof Care Center's raffle
of a United Motors of America
2005 MATRIX 150 scooter pro-
vided by O'Hara's Restoration.
Santa will also draw the winner
of the Grand Prize of a week's


stay at a scenic North Carolina
cabin from among "Christmas
Around Town" shoppers who
had their maps stamped by par-
ticipating local businesses; Don
and Nancy Slater, owners of
Reedy Creek Restaurant which
will open in the new year at the
old garden center on CR630,
have donated this prize.
Immediately following the
parade, GO EAST again to

Even Start Family Literacy
Program celebrates multiple
successes at first-year anniver-
sary event
Even Start's successes were
applauded by an audience of
120 enthusiastic participants,
and partners at a first-year
anniversary celebration held
at the First Presbyterian
Church in Lake Wales on Mon-
day, Nov..14. Debbie Hunt,
Even Start's Director, led the
event. She spoke to the signifi-
cant accomplishments of the
Even Start Program's first year,
which served 23 families total-
ing 100 family members in the
Lake Wales and Frostproof
area; "We have a 97% atten-
dance'rate and all adults and
children have shown major
gains in adult education, par-
enting skills, preschool readi-
ness and family literacy. The
program received high marks
from the state evaluator and
we are pleased to be building
great community through


Even Start," Debbie Hunt said.
The highlight of the event
was the awarding of a GED
High School Equivalency
Diploma to program partici-
pant Silvino Martinez of Lake
Wales. Silvino was joined by
his family, wife Enriqueta and
children Sylvie, Gustavo and
Angelica. A recognition plaque
for earning his diploma was
given to him by Richard Bryant
and Joe Angelestro of Wal-

tinez. Wal-Mart has joined
Even Start as a partner. Mr.
Martinez also received a letter

dent George Bush,
Debbie Hunt recognized Dr.
Bob Gustafson, Associate Pro-
fessor of Education at Warner
Southern College, with the
First Annual Even Start Litera-
cy Award for his
dedication, commitment
and leadership in literacy. Mrs.
Hunt said, "Dr..Gustafson
brought the grant to the Lake


Wales Charter Schools. He had
the vision of how this grant
could serve the Lake Wales
community and tie into the
service learning projects of the
college."
Dr. Gustafson responded, "I
have worked with many grant
programs and until Even Start I
had yet to see a program so
successful in reaching the
needs of those it serves and
that impacts our Warner
Southern faculty and students
in such a touching way. I am
proud to be a part of such an
endeavor. Most importantly, I
am proud of the participants,
who are such enthusiastic
learners and as one of our fac-
ulty members noted, the best
class you could hope to
teach."
Dr. Greg Hall, President of
Warner Southern College,
announced that scholarships
are being awarded to program

'Holiday Splendor' Media sneak peak


A new design twist for Christ-
mas at Pinewood was enjoyed by
the Media on Wednesday; Nov. 16.
This year's event theme is "Hol-
iday Splendor." Decked in season-
al majesty from Nov. 25 through
Jan. 1 to delight visitors of all ages,
Pinewood Estate at Historic Bok
Sanctuary near Lake Wales, Fla.,
will showcase the 1930s Mediter-
ranean Revival mansion nestled in
seven acres designed by the
famous Olmsted landscape firm.
Christmas at Pinewood home tour
rates include general Sanctuary
admission.
A favorite holiday tradition for
thousands, the Christmas at
Pinewood event theme and decor
differ annually. This year is no
exception because a whole new
twist has been added to the design
concept. Rather than have one
interior designer create and
orchestrate the entire design plan,
eleven design teams representing
eleven central Florida companies
will collaborate. Each design team
has selected a favorite room to
transform with their artful cre-
ations. The designs will accentuate
the mansion's extraordinary color-
ful Tunisian tile as well as other
architectural accents and French,
Italian and Spanish antiques. Also
new this year, visitors may cast a
vote for their favorite room. The
"People's Choice" room designer
will win the use of Pinewood
Estate for an event.
"We are thrilled with the diver-
sity and creativity of the plans pre-
sented," comments Lisa Allen,
event chairman. "The varying
room designs have exceeded our
expectations, and the participating
businesses are excited to be a part
of such a prestigious event."
From practical to fanciful and
traditional to unconventional,
each room design will be unique.
With scenes to delight the senses
of people of all ages and portray
varying themes, the decorated
rooms will feature: a handcrafted
Nativity to reveal the true spirit of
Christmas; a snow-covered botan-
ical mood; gifts gathered on an
adventure around the world; a
nature sanctuary filled with
berries, birds and butterflies; a
simple elegance; the "Twelve Days
of Christmas;" a sumptuous array
of holiday desserts; an intimate
family atmosphere of elegant
refinement; a panoply of dazzling
color and heavily adorned gar-
lands and a woodlands setting
with bird, pinecone and acorn
ornaments.
As day turns into dusk on Satur-
day, Dec. 10, a feeling of enchant-
ment will settle over Pinewood
Estate. It will be open until 9 p.m.
for a one-evening-only tour so
guests can enjoy the splendor of
the setting as thousands of lights
cast a gentle glow throughout the
historic mansion.
Originally built for Pennsylvan-


Frostproof News/Cindy Monk
Ambiance Interior Designer Judy Denlinger returned for a Amy Ballentine representing Petals & Bows Florist stands
fourth year to participate in the holiday decorating of the beside the Christmas tree in former resident/owner Mr.
Pinewood mansion. Bucks' bedroom at the Pinewood Estate home.

erly Scarborough decorated using several different sizes of
Christmas trees as well as stars to bring out the 'Holiday


Splendor' in this bedroom.
ian Charles A. Buck in the exclu-
sive Mountain Lake Community,
Pinewood Estate lets visitors step
back in time to glimpse a lifestyle
enjoyed by wealthy seasonal resi-
dents who retreated from harsh
northern winters. Sanctuary
founder Edward Bok and his wife
also had a winter home in this
community. A stroll through the
20-room mansion hints at a way of
life of a bygone era. Pinewood is
listed on the National Register of
Historic Places and is considered
one of Florida's finest examples of
Mediterranean architecture.
Visitors to Christmas at
Pinewood also can experience
Historic Bok Sanctuary's Olmsted-
designed landscape gardens, 205-
foot-tall majestic belltower, music
of the world famous 60-bell caril-
lon and daily carillon recitals at 1
and 3 p.m. For additional informa-
tion on Christmas at Pinewood,
call Historic Bok Sanctuary at
(863) 676-1408 or visit www.bok-
sanctuary.org.

Million Mile Transit Driver

helps shooting victim


Polk County Transit Driver Ruby
McCall was driving her regularly
scheduled route between Frost-
proof.and Lake Wales Nov. 16
when she noticed one of her regu-
lar customers walking slowly along
the road instead of taking his nor-
mal ride. Noticing that this was out
of the ordinary, she stopped and
asked the man if he needed a ride.
He responded by saying, "Call 9-1-
1, I've been shot in the back."
McCall immediately called 9-1-1
and helped the victim on to the
bus. She applied germicide to his


back wound and stayed at his side
until Polk County Emergency Med-
ical Services (PCEMS) arrived on
the seen. The victim was airlifted to
Lakeland Regional Medical Center.
Polk County Transit Services'
Director Sandra Winegar says that
McCall is just one of their drivers that
are outstanding in every way. Each
driver is trained to perform CPR and
first aid in emergency situations. In
addition, McCall was recently recog-
nized by the Tampa Bay Safety
Council for driving one million
miles without a single accident.
