By Mary Anne Swickerath The Ocoee City Commission OK'd preliminary plans for sev- eral new construction projects on Maguire Road south of West Colonial Drive last week. The Wesmere Property Subdi- vision includes 100.23 acres on the eastside of Maguire Road north of the Cross Creek commu- nity and south of the Florida Turnpike, and its plans call for a future elementary school site, residential townhouses and 14.1 acres of commercial develop- ment. The site also includes a lift station, a wet retention pond cov- ering 16.99 acres, buffers and the future right-of-way extension of Tomyn Boulevard east of Maguire Road. The proposed townhouses, named the Villages at Wesmere, will include 369 townhouses on 49.48 acres (7.46 dwelling units per acre and, according to Ocoee Planner Catherine Armstrong, "well under the maximum densi- ty" allowed in the city's Future Land Use Plan for high-density residential). SThe main concern from area homeowners was traffic, and a traffic study is being required by the city in reference to. a traffic light for this project. The City Commission also required the developer to use bar- rel roof tiles on the townhouses unless there is a supply shortage of these at the time of construc- tion. Another Maguire Road prelim- inary plan approved last week was for the third phase of the Plantation Grove commercial subdivision on 7.94 acres located directly south of the Publix shop- ping center on the eastside of Maguire Road. The proposed first part of this development includes a 21,520- square-foot general business building with approximately 13 tenant spaces. The second part is designed for a 3,820-square-foot AmSouth Bank with five drive- through lanes. The third part is the proposed location of a 6,000- square-foot high-quality restau- rant, and the fourth part will include, if approved, an 8,000- square-foot building that will house either a restaurant, retail space or a daycare. Commissioner Rusty Johnson, who represents south Ocoee, expressed his feeling that this was going to be a high-quality development that will be well- received by the area residents. The commission also approved the preliminary subdivision plan (See Seniors, 2A) (See Maguire, 3A) north-south route in West Orange County, will be 4 Lake Buena Vista to Old Winter Garden Road. Apopka-Vineland Road construction By Kathy Aber The widening and realignment of Apopka-Vineland Road in the area of the Florida Turnpike north toward Old Winter Garden Road is targeted for completion and opening next week. According to Shawn Kennedy of the Orange County Highway Construction Division, the con- tractor recently notified the county that the roadway will be at substantial completion May 21, which means all lanes will be open for travel by then. The road should be at final comple- tion 30 days after that. Time extensions were granted to the contractor due to delays associated with last summer's hurricanes, as well as additional work requested by the county. The widening of Apopka- Vineland Road from Conroy- Windermere Road to Old Winter Garden Road has been ongoing for more than five years. The entire project is within Orange County District 1, which is supervised by County Commis- sioner Teresa Jacobs. Jacobs spoke with The West Orange Times Tuesday about the project and how difficult it has been for motorists who adjusted to frequent detours, realign- ments and varied arrangements of barricades and orange high- way cones during the. lengthy construction process. Jacobs said the realignment of Apopka-Vineland Road, which now cuts through her neighbor- hood, was one of the concerns that started her involvement in county government. "All four lanes will be up and flowing next week. Everybody, like myself, who drives that road everyday will probably have their ov vn We'll be qu open."

"I am certainly appreciative of the opportunity to be a part of Health Central," she said, refer- ring to her commitment to work for Health Central after she com- pletes her nursing studies in 2006. The scholarship from the foun- dation was funded by private donations and employee dona- tions through the Building Mira- cles campaign. Employees con- tributing to this campaign may earmark their donations specifi-, cally for the foundation's nursing property in this area in 1911. The remaining portions of the project from Westover Roberts .to north of the Turnpike and from Lexington View to Chelsworth Drive have been widened from the existing two- lane rural road to a four-lane urban road. This section includ- ed construction of two bridges - the existing Florida Turnpike Bridge, which was reconstruct- ed, and a new bridge over Steer nursing scholarship scholarship program. Health Central also offers nurs- ing scholarships as part of its ongoing recruiting program, dol- ing out funds to eight or nine applicants every year. Since the program started in 2001, more than 30 individuals have accept- ed $6,500 scholarships to attend nursing school in return for dedi- cating their services to Health Central upon their graduation and licensing as a registered nurse. Applicants are screened through the human resources department. For information on a nursing scholarship, call Ann Polley at 407-296-1000, Ext. 1086. (Continued from front page) Lake. The cost of the work was originally estimated at $16 mil- lion. Landscaping for this sec-- tion is covered under a separate contract and will begin shortly after the construction ends. Section 3, -the portion from Chelsworth Drive to Old Winter Garden (approximately .37 miles) involved widening the two-lane road to four lanes and was completed in 2000. The cost was $1.1 million. An nuT'ty Ok...you bought an annuity a few years back. You received the contract and filed it away in a desk drawer or a lock box, and you haven't given it a second thought since, have you? Frankly, it would be wise to think about it now...at least for a sec- ond! Did you invest in a "Fixed Annuity"? Perhaps it was a "Vari- able Annuity"... Do you know what you own? Recent studies show that many annuity investors "don't under- stand what they purchased"; haven't had a review to determine if the investment was appropriate for their current situation"; and the worst of all; "hadn't seen the 'advisor' that sold them the con- tract since the day it was delivered!" Do ANY of those statements describe you? Economic times change. An investment that you made a few years ago may not be right for your retirement plans today. The days of the "park it and forget it retirement plan" are gone forev- er. If you have an annuity that is two years or older, it's time for a review. And, if you haven't seen your "advisor" in more than a year, you need to get yourself a REAL planning partner! For FREE info. call 1-888-779-9962 Shoppers give troops free phone calls home A recent study by the Opinion Research Corp. indicates that U.S. troops would prefer receiv- ing a chance to call home more than some traditional care pack- age items. In fact, 78 percent of Americans surveyed said that U.S. soldiers would appreciate a free phone call home more than items such as toiletries, baked goods or money. Additionally, 95 percent believe that allowing U.S. troops to speak to their families on a regular basis is an important morale booster. In response to these findings and in celebration of National Military Appreciation Month in May, Saks Department Store Group (SDSG) is supporting troops with a special program that will make it easier for sol- diers to connect with their loved ones. During the "Let Freedom Ring" campaign, which kicked off the weekend before Mother's Day and runs through July 4, SDSG will provide soldiers with a free call home for every $25 shoppers charge to their SDSG store credit cards. The company has set a goal of raising one million minutes of call time for the troops. These stores are included in the pro- gram: McRae's, Proffitt's, Car- son Pirie Scott, Bergner's, Boston Store, Herberger's, Parisian and Younkers. "We're pleased to be able to bring a piece of home to our sol- diers," said George Jones, presi- dent and CEO of SDSG. "Our troops demonstrate tremendous courage and strength every day. We believe that giving them an opportunity to speak with their loved ones will only make them stronger and help boost their morale as they fulfill their duties." Veterans reps Thursday in Ocoee The American Legion Post 109 of Ocoee will have a repre- sentative in Ocoee City Hall each Thursday to provide claim initiation assistance for Orange County residents who may be entitled to receive veteran-relat- ed federal and state entitlements.

I have never been so embarrassed as our newest neighbors yelled, screamed, slammed their fists on the podium and criticized our mayor and commissioners for everything in reference to their opposition to the mall. I have never seen such disrespect, arrogance, rudeness and inconsideration. The mayor and commissioners were only there to listen to the people's opinions. I also witnessed citizens, including myself, being hassled and threatened and a lot of name calling that was totally uncalled for. Whatever happened to "why can't we agree to disagree." As a lifelong resident of this beautiful town and many generations of my family before, this town was built on blood, sweat and many tears in the citrus business and truck farming in other words, agriculture and everything that went with it. We had small schools where everyone knew each other. It was a kinder, gentler time when people smiled and said "hello" and held the door open for you a great example of a town out of a Norman Rockwell picture. I miss those days. We have.a whole different culture now, and a lot of it is not nice although, in defense, there are ,titin-a lot of nice people. .'-ThMen Disney'came along and everything that 'i'ame with it. We had- no choice we just had to deal with it. Unfortunately, back-to-back freezes put a lot of us citrus growers, as well as many of those catering to the citrus industry, out of busi- ness. Downtown became a ghost town. Our mayor and commissioners, along with the hard work of our great citizens, brought it back to life, better than ever. Along with the growth, towns around us extended their boundaries and built homes like crazy, as well as strip malls, gas stations and other commercial structures. Our commission moved slowly and kept fast growth to a mini- mum to try to keep a small-town atmosphere, and they have done a wonderful job. I believe we, the people of Winter Garden, deserve a nice open-air mall like Winter Park's, with nice restaurants, shops and entertainment. Again, we did not ask for the growth but, with it happening anyway, we deserve something nice as an asset to the community. After all, the Fowlers, one of the oldest, hard- working, outstanding families in West Orange (who, I believe, have owned that property for about 100 /ears) could put a chicken farm or pigs there. How would the residents like that? I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that it's your civic duty to attend these meetings and let your voices be heard. Other- wise, a small fraction of our citizens will influ- ence the decisions being made. Our future amenities depend on your participation. Sarah E. Arnold Winter Garden Reader opinions Letters to the editor Longtime Winter Garden resident recalls past fondly, voices support for the mall Dear Sen. Michael Bennett and Rep. Randy Johnson: Thank you for your leadership in sponsoring proposed legislation dealing with land-use deci- sions impacting public infrastructure, including public schools. As a member of the Orange County School Board, it is all too clear how land-use decisions impact the educational envi- ronment of our students and teachers. In Orange County, voters made it perfectly clear that school children are a priority. Voters passed a 1/2 cent sales tax coupled with a 1/2 mill property tax roll back to renovate 136 older schools and build an additional 25 new schools. They also overwhelmingly passed a charter amendment requiring joint approval by local governments for land-use decisions which increase residential density in already overcrowded school zones. Voters in Orange County supported these meaningful and effective growth manage- ment tools to improve their quality of life and to strengthen the community they have chosen to live in. They did NOT support these measures to have their children rezoned to accommodate unvested growth and they do NOT want pock- ets of children within a community attending different schools. Voters DO want better plan- ning designed to consider the educational needs of their children. They DO want coordination and cooperation between local governments to facilitate managed growth with- out throwing communities under the bus, or in this case, on the bus. It is imperative that you understand that Orange County Public'Schools operates under a federal court-ordered desegregation plan man- dating a transfer policy which is not tied to capacity. Accordingly, I am specifically requesting that My Aunt Eva Dear Editor: In last week's West Orange Times article titled "In Windermere it's business as unusual" which said "traffic is down in Windermere and so is business," we heard from the business owners who are concerned that their businesses are suf- fering due to lack of traffic. On the editorial page of last week's issue, we heard from former five-term councilman and res- ident Bill Bardoe, who urged, "Close Main Street, period." And thus, you have the paradox that the elect- ed officials and town manager are facing. It is absolutely impossible to meet everyone's idea of what the right thing is to do. But the town is try- ing to find a sensible, equitable approach to our current construction. From the businesses' perspective On April 26, I visited or talked to the own- ers/representatives at Polo Cleaners, The Body Coach, Sammy Du all's In the Wake, Oriental Medicine, The ShaggN Shek and As You Like It. After hearing their concerns, Council Member Stephen Withets and Town Manager Cecilia Bemier worked to find solutions. At this time a number of concerns are being addressed, includ- ing: creating additional parking. providing a construction schedule that will allow business owners to know when certain construction efforts will affect them. attempting to provide handicapped access, although it is complicated because the back doors of businesses are not handicapped accessi- ble. As a result, a special walkway will be pro- vided. improving signage. From the residents' perspective On the other hand, we have the residents' con- cerns. On May 1, I met with a number of resi- dents on Oakdale Street and Magnolia Street. Additionally, our town manager received consid- erable input. Areas that are being addressed include: stricter enforcement of traffic safety by issu- ing citations for flagrant violations. improvements to the base structure of the roads. The dirt roads that handled hundreds of vehicles are quickly deteriorating due to use by thousands of vehicles. expanded police coverage at key intersec- tions. stationing police officer at entranceways to town to monitor and prevent large semi trucks cutting through. However, we will still have some large trucks that provide deliveries to local businesses. The elected officials and town staff continue to receive ideas and suggestions. Each suggestion is given careful consideration. As we move for- ward, we will continue to listen to the people for any possible improvements that can be made. Gary Bruhn Mayor of Windermere When I lost my mother, Joyce Austin, just a few short years ago, my Aunt Eva, Walker wrote a really sweet article about her so, in turn, I wanted to do this for her. I really never thought this day would come because I always thought she was invincible. My Aunt Eva was the matriarch of our family the glue that held us all together, through sun- shine or rain. She had the strength of 10 men but could be as gentle as a lamb. And when Eva spoke, people lis- tened! Eva was a wife, a mother, : . a.nurse, the church treasurer and a friend to all. She spent her life helping others - housing them, feeding them, running errands and nursing them .back to health. She never wanted anything in return. She always found the best in everyone and gave everyone her best. She'd stand behind you for sup- port, beside you for comfort EVA W and in front of you for your E AL protection. I can say from a personal standpoint that she had the biggest shoulders around and I had my share of lean- ing on them. She was also the planner, the organizer, the decorator and the life of every party! She loved to have fun with her family and friends, and she loved to laugh. My Aunt Eva could relate to anyone from birth to 100 years old, but she loved the babies the best. She took loving care of more infants than I could name and loved every single one. She would have raised them all if she could. She had a cradle in which many babies had their pictures taken - mine included. She always told us that when she gets to Heaven, she hopes that God will let her take care of babies. She was pretty good S at getting what she wanted, Sso I'm betting she got the -job! I'm truly.going to miss her, but it warms my heart to think of her in that position. In her article, she said my mother always handled everything with grace and S dignity even with her pass- S ing, and I can certainly say the same applies to my Aunt Eva. As she was nearing the end, she wouldn't rest much because she said she didn't want to miss anything - and she didn't. My Aunt Eva lived her life and blessed countless others along the way. I love you, Aunt Eva. Your p.j. Paula Austin Winter Garden Dear Editor: The other day while shopping at Sav-A-Lot I received such a nice surprise. After selecting my tomatoes, I proceeded to get in line to check out. A gentleman whom I didn't know had several items and insisted I go in front of him. I thanked him, and before I could get my wal- Dear Editor: let.out he handed the cashier a $10 bill and paid for my tomatoes. I was so overwhelmed by his kind- ness that I just turned around and hugged him. It's so nice to live among such generous and thoughtful people. May God bless him! Dean Cauley Winter Garden Loss of billfold has happy ending with more than $300, and returned that, too. She is truly a sweet, honest lady a rare person in I recently discovered I had left my billfold, with all my credit cards, driver's license and money, at either Wal-Mart or Publix. I spent the day cancelling the cards and getting a new license, arriving home late in the evening. When I checked my phone messages, a Thel- ma Waldrop had left a message that she had my billfold. She returned it with all the contents. She told me she had also found a lady's purse today's troubled world. How refreshing! Charlotte Gale Windermere Editor's note: This is a wonderful story. How- ever, we do not find good people like Thelma Waldrop at all "rare." We see them and hear about them all the time. Expansion of Winter Garden postal services urged Dear Editor: It seems to me it is time for the Winter Garden Post Office to step up to the plate and expand its service to the people in its area. Horizon West is in need of a post office in that area: All of the subdivisions off County Road 535 are serviced by the Windermere Post Office. Of course, people like that because everyone wants a Windermere address whether they live there or not. That area is rural Orange County and very close to Winter Garden city limits. The Windermere. Post Office is ,overcrowded with people out of the area cutting through Winder- mere to get to the post office. What a conve- nience it would be for the good people in rural Orange County to have their own post office. Ellen Jo Cooper Windermere 35 years ago The State Department of Transportation has authorized the construction of the Roper Grow- ers Cooperative Heliport. It will be located on the east side of Plant Street near Dillard Street in Winter Garden. Color bearers at a mother-daughter tea spon- sored by Girl Scout Troop 729 were Cindy Lit- tler, Pam Hannon, Lynn Freeman, Scottie Smith and Barbara Belflower. 30 years ago A celebration of Mother's Day was held at Windermere Union Church with Ella Bennin, a 93-year resident of our area, as special guest. She was born in Germany 95 years ago, and her family settled in Gotha when she was a 2-year- old. Mrs. Bennin was a member of the pioneer Regener family and the mother of Marie Bennin Mize and Henrietta Bennin Lewter. 25 years ago Howard Bochiardy of Windermere has been elected to the College of Fellows of the Ameri- can Institute of Architects for his notable contri- bution to the profession. Among 12 Orange County coordinators recog- nized on ADDitiohs Recognition Day were Gin- ger Jackson at Windermere Elementary School and Bonnie James at Dr. Phillips Elementary. 20 years ago The city of Ocoee celebrated its 60th anniver- sary with a full day of activities on May 11. H.M. Bowness led the parade in a 1925 car, and Patrick Branch rode his high-wheeler bicycle. There was a dedication of the new gazebo at which Glen Gettings sang his original song, "Ocoee." A hot-air balloon was available for rides all day. Many unsuspecting Roman Catholics have been attending Mass where a phony priest has been holding church services at his "shrine" - Saints Michael and Gabriel Old Roman Catholic Church next to the Elvis Presley Museum just off International Drive. Thomas Kirkland has been representing himself as a Roman Catholic priest. 15 years ago A lot of terrible things have been happening around Gotha lately: three bikers died violently on Flo and Borgie Johnson's property and there was a distressing report that a girl was decapitat- ed at Parkridge Grocery at the corer of Hempel Avenue and Old Winter Garden Road. It was pretty grisly stuff for a little community, but Gotha residents gathered for a covered dish sup- per at the Johnsons' Goose Pond to mark the hap- penings. They were also observing some of the filming of The Night Brings Charlie by Qwest Studios, working out of Universal Studios. It was not nominated for an Academy Award.

PAGE DESIGN.....................Line Richardson .I' you remove/amend any language in your pro- posed legislation which would: 1) undermine the home rule authority of local governments making local land-use decisions designed to coordinate the availability of school infrastructure with additional students, and/or, 2) mandate or prescribe reassignment of stu- dents to contiguous attendance zones to accom- modate unvested growth. Obviously, Orange County's policy relating to growth management is not a process without conflict. It is, however, a process which care- fully considers the needs of the whole commu- nity. Please consider the appropriate language changes to ensure that the proposed legislation does not undermine the efforts and home rule authority of our local governments. Feel free to call me if you would like to discuss these issues further: 407-716-6862. Note: You may find it interesting to know that while some developers resist the idea of consid- ering school capacity prior to rezoning their parcels to a higher residential density, many developers have been willing to work with the school district to obtain a Capacity Enhance- ment Agreement coordinating funding and/or timing of the projects with creation of school capacity. The potential of public/private part- nerships to help meet school infrastructure needs in Orange County is just beginning to be realized. Recently, a developer on the east side of Orange County agreed to build two schools and hold an interest-free loan for one year in order to accelerate an elementary and middle school already scheduled in the school district's five-year plan. Karen Ardaman Orange County School Board District 4 Ardaman supports growth management Windermere mayor addresses downtown traffic concerns Shopper gets a pleasant surprise From our archives Old Times Thursday, May 12, 2005 The West Orange Times Business Dr. William Fravel, orthodon- tist, recently welcomed local businesses and colleagues to the open house celebration of his new, state-of-the-art Ocoee office.

New restaurant planned for MetroWest San Francisco Oven, a rapid- ly growing fast-food chain that promises its patrons a taste of the Bay Area, is expanding to Central Florida and.has select- ed Vance Realty Group to assist in the effort. The Cleveland-based chain plans on opening 10-12 San Francisco Ovens in the Orange County area over the next five years. Vance Realty Group commercial real estate special- ist Michael Mansour has been chosen to find locations for the restaurants, which feature such fare as Alcatraz Roast Beef, Golden Gate Sausage, Pacific Heights Turkey Focaccia, Pier 39 Clam Chowder and Nob Hill Pizza Salad. h Mansour will join business brokerage manager Rob Mol- nar and Vance Realty Group President Arnold Matyas in working with a local ownership group who have purchased the franchise rights for a broad market that extends from Ocoee to Alafaya Trail in East Orange County, and from Kissimmee to Winter Park. The group, which includes Char- lotte Jones, Michael Terry and Christoph Warnke, plans on opening its first restaurant in MetroWest later this year. The restaurant's concept was started by Matt Harper and Eddie Cerino, who wanted to give customers a taste of brick- oven pizza, homemade soups and salads and assorted sour- dough sandwiches that hail from the San Francisco Bay Area. According to Mansour, the concept has been well- embraced. "San Francisco Oven appeals to consumers who desire a more aesthetically pleasing experience than offered by tra- ditional fast-food establish- ments but at prices that fall below a full-service casual restaurant," said Mansour. The restaurant will feature wines from Napa Valley and beers brewed in San Francisco. Each one will range in size from 2,500- to 3,500-square- feet and seat about 100 people. San Francisco Oven features an open kitchen with a brick oven, wall murals, wall coverings and other items themed around the Bay Area. Windermere.

But think about this: without the home inspection report, how do.you know what the "as is" refers to? Don't you want to know what condi- tion the home is in before you buy it? The inspection contingency typi- cally allows the buyer to enlist the services of a licensed home inspector within three to seven days after the purchase agreement 'is signed. The inspector will go over the property from top to bottom, evaluating the condition that may be considered defects and thus may affect the mar- ket value or the safety of the home. The inspector's report is the only' documented proof of the actual con- dition of the property that is being sold. The home inspection report is a valuable tool that tells you about the home before you move in. It offers concrete information that can support negotiation of the sales contract. It gives you a "heads up" regarding future maintenance projects. Don't make a deal without a home inspec- tion! If you would like to talk further about buying or selling real estate, please contact Libby Tomyn at Cen- tury 21 Professional Group. Call me on my personal message line, (407) 570-0318. ' r i.

Avoid planting turf in areas that are hard to water, such as steep inclines and isolated strips along sidewalks and driveways. Install covers on pools and spas and check for leaks around your pumps.

Do you have one or two hours a week to spare? If so, here's a perfect spot for you. The Adult Literacy League needs volunteers to read to chil- dren who are waiting to see the doctor in selected area medical centers. There are opportunities in Winter Garden and Apopka and in two centers in downtown Orlando. SReach Out and Read is a nationwide program to encour- age parents to read to their chil- dren and to get more books into the home. When a parent brings a preschool child to visit a pedi- atrician, he or she receives coun- seling in reading and informa- tion on how to read to a child. In addition, the child is given a free book to take home. .An important component of this program is the volunteers who read to the children while they are waiting to see the doc- tor. Some children are seldom - or never read to at home. A volunteer is able to give this experience to children and to share the joy of reading with them. At the same time, parents can learn by example how to read to their children at home and they can see what a reward- ing, enriching experience read- ing is. A volunteer can also offer literacy resources (information on library services, GED or Eng- lish classes, etc.) to the parents. For more information on becoming literacy volunteer, call Sherry Clark at the Adult Litera- cy League at 407-422-1540. Town needs crossing guards needed for Windermere Elem.

Millenia Gallery is featuring $n exhibit featuring works by Hlarold Rotenberg through May I0. Titled "100 Years; 100 Paintings," the exhibit will cele- Ibrate a century of work by IRotenberg. S The artist studied at the 'Boston Museum of Fine Arts School in the early 1920s when realistic .drawing was every- ithing. His proximity to Provincetown, however, and the 'modern painters there, exposed , him to the more expressive painting that we associate with This painter, whose 100th birth- day is celebrated with the exhi- ibition. Eventually, the artist studied ,in Paris, making his first trip at S19. Throughout his life, Roten- Iberg immersed himself in the world. "I got the travel bug when I ;was young and have never lost my curiosity, my wonder about What is on the other side of the :hill," he said. At the age of 90, he remarked That his work was still constant- ly improving. Millenia Gallery is located adjacent to the Mall at Millenia, just east of the Conroy tRoad exit of Interstate 4.

His just-published restau- rant guide, Orlando Chow: SRestaurants for the Rest of Us, is S:informed, eccentric and useful. It is informed because Mervine Shas spent 30 years wining and din- Sing his way around Central Flori- :da (and much of the U.S.), and he :has long covered restaurants for Sthe Orlando Business Journal. It is eccentric because there are no ratings, no stars are given out, and it doesn't pretend to be a com- plete guide to Greater Orlando restaurants. Mervine spotlights 105 restaurants from fine dining *(Victoria & Albert's) to soul food (Oley's Homestyle Cooking) to ethnic eateries (Pho 88 Noodles). What they all have in common : is Mervine likes 'em. He likes Their attitude, their service, their commitment to good food. And the guide is intentionally Useful to both residents and tourists. I've lived here for 32 years, I love all kinds of restau- rants, and there are a number he writes about I had never heard of. It is also a clear guide (com- plete with directions) for tourists who would never find some of the more interesting restaurants by using a national guide, such as those from Frommer or Fodor. S Mervine told The West Orange Times he had two reasons for writ- ing the book: "First, to introduce the rest of Central Florida to the tourists who come here and don't realize what else we have to offer [besides the theme parks]. Sec- ondly, to share my knowledge of many restaurants that don't get enough exposure with other Cen- tral Floridians so they can enjoy the experience and the restaurant owners can prosper." i He said he focused on restau- rants that are unique to Florida. "Mostly I avoided the chain establishments not that there's anything wrong with chains - but because I wanted to focus on experiences that both locals and tourists would find unusual," he said. "That ranges from the best hot dog and hamburger in town to ethnic cuisine, such as Polish and Korean, to some of the finest din- ing we have to offer." When asked what he looks for in a restaurant, he answered: "Pas- sion. People who do the best job of preparing and serving food are passionate about their work, whether it is an Asian family busi- ness in a strip mall or Citricos at Disney. If a dining room is dirty or just not well organized, it's a turnoff. If the service isn't eager, friendly and knowledgeable about the restaurant's dishes, more of a turnoff. "Finally, if the food isn't what I wanted and no one seems to care that-I'm not satisfied with it, I won't make a fuss and I won't go back and.I'll tell others about !it." For both locals and tourists, : Mervine picks out six Disney :restaurants to highlight: Boma: :Flavors of Africa, California Grill, Citricos (my personal Disney Favoritee, Earl of Sandwich, Fresh :Mediterranean Market and Victo- Sria & Albert's. : He advises readers that by :avoiding the tourist areas they will .be missing out on some excellent :dining experiences. - SOnly one restaurant in our cov- ,erage area north of West Colonial 'Drive made the guide, Taquitos :Jalisco, the popular. Mexican :restaurant in Winter Garden. S Here's what Mervine has to say about TJ's: "From fresh salsa and :chips through guacamole and refried beans, an entr6e or combi- ination platter to soothing flan, the Smenu is a treat." He particularly likes the beef. : tips in salsa verde and the chicken with mole sauce. A second local restaurant in the 'guide is yellow dog eats on Hempel Avenue in Gotha run by Chris "Fish" Morgan and Jim Kaiser, Mervine likes its "quirky charm, hands-on customer service and great food." A Dr. Phillips selection I was : unfamiliar with that is spotlighted in the guide is Magic Wok, a Chi- nese restaurant, on Conroy-Win- dermere Road at Turkey Lake Road. "For standard items like moo shu pork or shrimp in hot garlic sauce or rare fare like five flavor I chicken or beef in black pepper sauce, Magic Wok is worth it," writes Mervine. Another new one to me is The Dessert Lady on the comer of Conroy and South Kirkman roads. It's a wine bar, coffee bar and dessert place. According to Mervine, "The menu includes 14 dessert items, and none of them is bad." There's chocolate cake, carrot cake, lemon rum cake and key lime cake (or pie) among the offerings. The other West Orange County 'Orlando Chow' is the newest Central Florida restaurant guide. restaurants he writes about are all on Sand Lake Road, the area east of Apopka-Vineland Road brim- ming with eating places. He prais- es four of them: Anaelle & Hugo, Cedar's, Moonfish and Seasons 52. About this Restaurant Row scene, Mervine said: "What is good about it is having the wide selection of cuisine available in such a concentrated place. I expect as development moves west from the Marketplace, we will see more. "There have been and still are some people who came there because of the perceived volume of business. But if they don't do what they do quite well, they will not survive. In fact, they will die off faster than in other locations." And a local landmark quite close to many West Orange Coun- ty hearts made Mervine's cut: Lee & Rick's Half Shell Oyster Bar on Old Winter Garden Road. To quote Orlando Chow: "Lee & Rick's has been here 55 years, and while their other seafood dishes, shrimp steamed or fried, steamed crab legs and fried fish, can be delectable, this is the tem- ple for those of us who worship the oyster." I asked Mervine if there were other West Orange County restau- rants he liked but didn't include in his guide. He said the family-run Matthew's Steaks and More on Maguire Road in Ocoee almost made the cut for the guide. It's a restaurant he likes very much, he said. He also gave good marks to another Ocoee restaurant, Le Bon Appetit, offering French-accented food a littler farther north on Maguire, just south of West Colo- nial Drive. In addition, he praised the Edgewater Caf6 (formerly Whip- poor Willy's) in the Edgewater Hotel on Plant Street in down- town Winter Garden for its fried chicken and macaroni and cheese and family atmosphere. "Also, believe it or not, the Twistee Treat [on West Colonial Drive in Ocoee] is also a favorite, as much for the experience as the ice cream," he said.

The first play is Miss Nelson Is Missing. It runs Oct. 22 to Nov. 19 on Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sundays at 4:30 p.m. Tickets are $13 for adults and $9 for chil- dren. Based on the book by Harry Allard and James Marshall and adapted by Joan Cushing, the play centers on a class- room of unruly students who treat their caring and lovely teacher with complete disrespect. She retaliates by dress- ing up as a witch named Miss Viola Swamp and terrorizing them with piles of homework. In the end, the students write a let- ter of apology to her, and she returns to find a classroom full of well- behaved students. The Jungle Book, based on the book by Rudyard Kipling and adapted by April-Dawn Gladu, runs Feb. 4 to April 1. Gladu said: "As I write this play, I am allowing myself to enjoy exploring the relationship of animals and humans. A secret part of me believes that there is a away to com- municate with all crea- tures if we only took the time to listen. Mowgli had that time, and, because he didn't know it couldn't be done, he learned the language of the jun- gle...."

Fortu- nately for the Dr. Phillips Pan- thers, it wasn't them. The Boone Braves simply couldn't stop the Panthers as they rolled to the Class 6A, District 4 title Saturday. While the final score was 5- 1, that doesn't tell the exciting story. The Panthers opened up with a 3-hit, 2-run first inning. The Braves answered back with a one-hit inning of their own. Both teams were hitless in the second game, going three- up, three-down on both sides. But when Ohmed Danesh opened the third inning with a solo home run that was the highlight of a 3-hit, 3-hit inning, the Panthers never looked back. In fact, starting DP pitcher, lefty Raul Torres, didn't give up a single run until the last out of the last inning. By then, the Panthers had the champi- onship. Coach Mike Barefoot and his team pulled out a great win that proved their 9-1 win over Colonial in the semifinals was not a fluke. Next step for the Panthers is the Class 6A, Region 1 Tournament. A close play at third.

District champs The Dr. Phillips varsity boys volleyball team won its first-ever district championship last week- end. The Panthers beat Freedom to claim the title and advance through the state tournament. Chris Orcasitas West Orange High Head Football Coach Tim Smith says Chris Orcasitas will be hard to replace. As a three-year letter- man and a three-year starter on the offensive line, Orcasitas was a player with a wealth of experi- ence. Coach Smith will also miss the lineman's dedication. of WOHS receives scholarship "Our program asks a lot of our players, and Chris was one of those young men who gave us all he had," said Smith. Last week, Orcasitas signed his letter of intent to St. Olaf College in Minnesota. At this point, he is deciding between business and education as a major. He was joined by a group of family members: his mother and father, Lydia and Gilbert; his brother, Austin; and his sister, Irene. A highlight of his football career at WOHS was being cho- sen to play in the Central Flori- da All-Star game in Raymond James Stadium in Tampa. /1f 9lCgb:- ..

The Dr. Phillips varsity base- ball team won the district champi- onship last weekend for the first time since 1999. The Panthers (18- 9) claimed the title with a 5-1 vic- tory over Boone. Senior Raul Tor- res struck out 6 batters en route to pitching a complete game. Adam Mindick and Kevin Mierzwinski knocked in two runs apiece. The team entered the district tournament seeded fifth and start- ed off with a 6-3 victory over No. 4 seed Olympia. Luke Greinke went 3 for 4 at the plate and knocked in 3 RBIs while pitching the Panthers to the win. Ohmed Danesh, Mierzwinski and Andrew Lamson provided the fireworks with a home run apiece. The Pan- thers continued rolling through the tournament with a 9-0 win over Colonial. Greinke allowed just one hit in a 10-strike-out perfor- mance. Jacob Koch hit a 3-run home run, while Mierzwinski added a solo shot. The Lady Panther varsity flag football team's season came to an end in a regional playoff game against East Lake played last week in Tarpon Springs. DP had ham- mered East Lake 52-6 in last year's matchup but couldn't put the ball in the end zone last week and lost 6-0. Although the Lady Panthers moved the football well and were never forced to punt, penalties and dropped passes repeatedly stalled drives inside the red zone. Dr. Phillips (14-1) fin- ished the season as district and conference champions. The Dr. Phillips varsity boys volleyball team won its first dis- trict championship last weekend. The Panthers took the title with a comeback victory over Freedom. After dropping the first two of five games, DP rallied to take the final three games (25-21, 25-17, 15-8). Tanner Wright led the way with 30 assists, while Marcos Waissmann picked up 10 blocks. The Panthers advanced to the championship game against Free- dom with a semi-final win over Florida Air Academy. Top-seeded DP cruised to a 25-11, 19-25, 25- 16, 25-12 win on the play of Wright (32 assists) and Victory Callado, who recorded 10 kills and 28 digs. The Dr. Phillips boys and girls track teams competed in the state finals this past weekend in Coral Springs.. Lady Panther Britney Wilson took second place in the 200 meters with a time of 24.62 seconds and fourth place in the 100 meters (12.27 seconds). The Lady Panthers finished 15th over- all, while the boys team placed 49th overall. DP's Ronald Johnson took sev- enth place in the 200 meters, and Jovonte Eaford finished 13th in the 800 meters. The Panther 4x400 relay team of Kester Smith, Del- roy Andrews, Marty Carr and Johnson placed 14th. The Dr. Phillips varsity boys and girls tennis teams are proud to announce that the brother-sister duo of Laurent and Celine Minguez both earned All-Metro Conference honors. The pair is responsible for leading both DP's boys and girls teams to district and regional titles, as well as a trip to the state finals. Dr. Phillips varsity boys weightlifting star Justin Kemp earned an honorable mention to the All-Orange County boys weightlifting team.

Olympia lacrosse gives awards at annual banquet West Orange High spring sports update By Tyler Koch The West Orange High varsi- ty softball team has done it again with another great win against Lake Mary. The girls were strong at the plate, and two players, Leslee Stephens and Meagan Squartino, each hit 3-run homers. The Lady War- riors run-ruled Lake Mary in 5 innings by a score of 16-1. The WOHS girls are current- ly ranked sixth in the state, according to recent polls. The WOHS varsity baseball team had some help from its_ v ;I younger players against Evans in the district tournament last week. Eric Weisner went 3 for 4 at the plate with 2 runs batted in. Justin Gise also had a great game, going 2 for 2 with 2 runs scored. Joey Burkhalter pitched 2 innings and had 2 strikeouts. The final was 14-10. The Warriors had a tougher game against Boone in the semifinals of district. Billy Whitaker pitched valiantly, giv- ing up only 2 hits and pitching a complete game, but could not get the win for the Warriors. The final was 3-1, and the team ended its season with a final record of 14-12. The West Orange girls track team did well in the meet at Coral Springs High, placing 12th in the meet. Lakendra Thames had an outstanding day. She finished first in the discus throw and third in the shot put.

The Lady Warriors wasted no time in rebounding from the District 4 championship loss to Boone in 13 innings the pre- vious week by jumping on Lake Mary with 3 runs in the top of the first inning. After winning 21 consecu- tive games, the Lady War- riors' loss to Boone put them on the road for the regional quarterfinal. WOHS (25-2) opened the game with a double by Andrea Migliori, and Megan Squartino followed with a base on balls. With 2 outs, Kristen Stew- art drew a walk to load the bases, and Kristen Crowe and Heather Durrance fol- lowed with run-scoring hits. Crowe singled to drive in the first run, and Durrance's double made the score 3-0 in the top of the first. In the third inning, it was Durrance again in the middle of the damage. A lead-off walk to Leslee Stephens was followed by a sacrifice bunt by Crowe. That's when Dur- rance doubled again to put the score at 4-0. One out later, Shahlisa Shirley drove home Dur- rance with a single, giving the Lady Warriors a 5-0 lead going into the bottom of the third. In the top of the fourth, the West Orange girls stretched their lead to 8-0. Back-to- back singles with one put by Jamie Rausch and Stewart were followed by Stephens' third home run of the season, as she smashed a Hope Bitzer pitch deep into the night, over the wall. The Lady Warriors went on to explode for 8 runs in the top of the sixth inning to finish the game through the 10-run rule. In this inning, Stewart and Durrance had RBI singles, Jenn Henry knocked in three runs with the bases-loaded triple, and Squartino topped off the inning with a three- run homer to cap the scoring at 16. Stewart pitched the first three innings to pick up her 14th victory of the season. She surrendered 2 hits and one base on balls and struck out 2 batters. Southpaw Rausch pitched the final three innings,, giving up one earned run and one walk and 2 hits while striking out 3. The Lady Warriors were set to play in their next round vs. Deltona on Tuesday night of this week, after presstime. If they won this game, they would advance to the region- al finals this Friday night at either Boone or Winter Springs. A win in the finals would place them in the state Final Four next week in Tampa. Super Mario signs with Coastal Carolina By John Magrino The courtship of Mario Sisin- ni stretched from Maine to Florida, but his final decision will take him near Myrtle Beach, S.C. Sisinni, a Dr. Phillips record- setting point guard, inked his name to a basketball scholarship with Coastal Carolina Universi- ty with his parents and coach by his side. Coastal Carolina recently hired Buzz Peterson, former head coach of the Tennessee Volunteers, and one of his first recruiting phone calls was to Sisinni. "Coach Peterson and the play- ers made me feel very welcome when I was there," said Sisinni. "He's a great coach, he has big plans for the program, and I'm anxious to be a big part it." CCU is located in Conway, S.C., approximately nine miles from Myrtle Beach, and has had a solid history of success on the court. The Chanticleers (nick- named after the quick-thinking rooster in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales) made two NCAA Tourna- ment appearances in the early 1990s and are poised to return their program to prominence under Peterson. "We are very happy to have Mario as (one of) our first two signees at Coastal," Peterson said. "They both know what it takes to win, as they have been a part of very successful programs in Florida and North Carolina. Having players who have been a part of winning programs is key when trying to take a program to a new level. We believe they will be important players for us, both next season and for the next four years." Sisinni has been the floor gen- eral for the Panthers for four years, setting the school record for assists (438) and steals (213). This year he was named Honorable Mention All-State, first team All-County as well as first team All-Metro Confer- ence. Sisinni caught Peterson's eye when DP played at the Chick- fil-A Basketball Classic in Myr- tle Beach over the winter break. Coastal, along with Jack- sonville, High Point, Florida Southern and Maine, made strong offers for him, but Myrtle Beach reminded Sisinni of Orlando. "The school just felt right for me," he said. "My parents are extremely happy with my deci- sion and it's not very far from here either so, they can come up as much as they want. It's far enough, but not too far," he joked. Sisinni doesn't have much time left in Orlando, however, as he plans on getting up to school soon to begin summer classes. "I want to jump right in and get adjusted," he said. He plans on majoring in business management with the intention of starting his own business in the future. "My dad has been a big part of my life. He's his own boss. I'd like to do the same." A iA -- -- f t=; *^ -'- -. Olympia High spring sports update The Olympia varsity baseball team finished its regular season April 29 by coming from behind to beat Merritt Island 8-6. Down 5-4 with the bases loaded, facing two outs and two strikes, Ryan Lowe hit a grand slam to win the game. The victory gave the Titans a 16-9 record. Earlier in the week, Olympia rode the arm of pitcher Austin Steele, who threw a no-hitter through six and one-third innings, to beat Oak Ridge. Titan varsity wrestling star Shane Lampkins was recently named to the All-Metro Confer- ence wrestling team. Lampkins finished his senior season unde- feated (9-0). The OHS varsity boys volley- ball team blew past Colonial in three games April 26 to win its final home match of the season. Scott Kling recorded 14 kills and 7 aces, while Travis Nead added 7 kills and 13 digs. Chris Wilson had 9 kills, and Steven Meehan racked up 20 assists. The Olympia varsity girls tennis team came away with fifth place at the Class 4A state tennis tournament. Lorinda Boothman finished as the state's runner-up in No. 1-seed singles competition. Boothman and teammate Rebecca Kirven were both named to the All-Metro Conference girls tennis team. Freshman Levan Clark of the Olympia varsity boys tennis team was named to the All- Metro Conference boys tennis team. The Lady Titan varsity soft- ball team ended its season April 26 with a district loss to Dr. Phillips. Erin Bergdahl, Megan Miller, Patricia Totorica and Lee Anne Arnold all connected for hits against DP. Hayden Staley made an outstanding play at short stop to keep the game close for Olympia. The OHS varsity boys and girls track teams both competed in the regional track champi- onships recently. The Lady Titans placed third, overall at the meet. Kristine Scott finished second, in both the 100- and 200- meter events to qualify for the state meet. Scott also teamed up with Lelyn Knowlden, Octavia Barnes, Kenetra Jones and Frances Daniels to place second and qualify for state in the 4x100 meters. The Lady Titan 4x400 relay team of Knowlden, Jones, Barnes, Shayna Stephenson, Maddy Owens and Whitney Jones finished second and will also compete at the state cham- pionships. The Olympia boys team will be represented at the state track meet by Razzie Smith, who fin- ished third in the 200 meters and fourth in the 100 meters. Kyle Allen will represent the Titans after capturing second place in the 1600 meters.

Registered players and sponsors will be invited to a wine-tasting party the evening before the event. The entry fee is $200 per player. Sponsorships are available from $350 for a tee sign to $10,000 for a presenting sponsorship. Sponsor- ships entitle donors to a variety of benefits, including corporate logos imprinted on merchandise awarded at the tournament, golf foursomes, hole and cart signage and tickets to the Foundation's annual gala. School nurses, the registered nurses that staff school clinics, are often the only health care providers that many at-risk children see. Yet the cost of keeping a nurse on cam- pus falls to the school, which must raise the money through fundrais- ing efforts or parent donations. The Foundation, in partnership with Orange County Public Schools, subsidizes school nurses in 31 elementary, middle and high schools through its Nine for Nurs- es campaign. This project is aimed at raising nine dollars for every child enrolled in school. The cost of keeping a nurse at a school is approximately $27,000 annually. The Foundation provides $14,500 per nurse per school. Through this effort more than 40,000 students received care during the current school year. Additionally, a portion of the proceeds of the tournament will be used to purchase a specially equipped van to transport seniors to the Adult Day Care Program at Health Central Park.

Ocoee Hi S By Mike Armbruster Principal I have to say that this has been one of the best weeks I have had in preparing for the new school opening mostly because I had the opportunity to meet and see several of our students who will be attending Ocoee High School. They are already getting involved and well on their way to becoming Knights. Unfortunately, I did miss our dance try-outs as I was out of town, but I was able to attend the first practice of our football team. Although. it will be a young team, it is obviously a team that will bring a lot of heart to the program. As I looked out and spoke with them, I couldn't help but feel a sense of how spe- cial this first year will truly be. As we bring students from five different middle schools," two high schools, a variety of private schools and home- school environments together to create the first generation and the first class of Ocoee High, it will be a year like no. other I have experienced in my career. I also attended the first day of cheerleading try-outs where 78 young ladies were preparing for a rigorous week of learning and practice, culminating in team selections on Friday. Again, the energy and excitement was amazing. This past week was also Teacher Appreciation Week, and I cannot express how much I appreciate every one of the teachers who have taken the step to becoming a Knight by joining Times' classified sell! Call 407- 656-2121 gh School bur team. Each one of them is leaving a comfort zone that they could easily choose to stay with to enter into a school unlike any other in our area. For that alone, they are to be recognized and commended. But even more, they will be leaving a familiar environment to enter a school that currently has teachers hired from 35 dif- ferent schools. They will be entering an environment in which they will collaborate, fully align curriculum and assessments, work in smaller learning communities, work with struggling students in guid- ed/facilitated learning clusters, connect to all students in their classrooms and work everyday to achieve our vision that every student will graduate.. Yes, indeed, these teachers need to be appreciated for what they have already done just by stepping out and signing on to Ocoee High. There is no doubt in my mind that they will be a force to be reckoned with as they work to create a healthy community for all students, where the fundamental purpose is learning. As mentioned last week, we will be having our next PTSA/SAC meetings on May 19th in the media center at West- side Tech. The PTSA meeting will be from 6-7 p.m.; and the I update SAC meeting; will follow from 7-8. Feel free to attend either one or both. Otherwise, things are moving along as planned. Equipment orders are being processed, staff. is still being hired, the master schedule is being put together, and student registration is on- going. Without sounding like a dis- claimer, I do want to share that this first year will not be the end - but rather the beginning of a new way of doing things, so I am asking up front for your patience as we all come together in July to build the school %e have been planning for the past 12 months..It will be worth all the effort when all is said and done. As. always, please feel free to contact me at 407-905-2023 or by e-mail at armbrum@ocps.net if I can answer any questions you may have about our commu- nity school or visit our Web site at http://www.ocoeehigh- school.ocps.net.

It was a huge success, and the school extends a big thank-you to all the students, staff and par- ents for their contributions. A dollar was paid by all who participated each day, except for the volleyball game on Friday, or students could buy a wristband for $5 and participate in every- thing for the whole week. Jars were displayed at lunch with pictures of the administra- tors on the front. Students were encouraged to drop money in the jar of the administrator they would most like to see get a pie in the face. Some administrators did some serious campaigning to urge students notto put money in their jars but in someone else's. On Inside Out Day, everyone wore clothes inside out. Students voted on the, winners, who received gifts. Prizes were also awarded for creativity on Hat Day. On Dress Up Day, students wore tuxedoes, gowns, dresses and suits, and everyone looked great. Students winning prizes were eligible for a drawing on Fri- day, which included the chance to get to throw the pie. The final day featured a volley- ball game between volunteers from the teachers and staff and students from the boys and girls volleyball team. The total amount collected for the week was $5,193.70. The eighth grade collected the most money and won an ice cream party. Robert Ryner, the assistant principal and eighth-grade administrator, had the most money collected. He was so good-natured in taking the whipped cream pie in the face that he was asked to do it a sec- ond time to be sure all the stu- dents got to see. He ran over and gave Mrs. Lee, the seventh- grade administrator, a big hug just to be sure she got a share of the pie. A big thank-you goes to these businesses and individuals for The Ist-grade students in Ms. Soto's class at Bay Meadows Elementary School hosted an Authors Tea for parents. The stu- dents had a great time reading their stories that were then published in a book. Pictured are (l-r): Diego Avalos, Irma Diaz and Leo Dempsey.

Students could choose to write an essay, poem or create an art piece on the topic. The winners from Citrus Elementary were Brooke Strange (essay), Lais Oliveira (poem) and Caroli- na Vaca (art piece). The girls were awarded blue ribbons at a special luncheon held at the Woman's Club.

A Comment & Study of the Scriptures Remembering George Gano Although we have been admonished in the Bible, "Do not. conform any longer to the pattern of this world" (Romans 12:1), or as Phillips paraphrases it, "Don't let the world around you squeeze you into its own mold," we have somehow paid little attention to this warning at least so it seems. If we are to make a difference in our society we must resolve to obey our Lord in this admonition, for hard- ly a day goes by without persistent pressure to conform to the standards and ideas of the world around us. Such pres- sure is imposed upon us by the adversary via such avenues as the media. The adversary? Satan? Isn't that insinuating a great deal? Maybe. But if God says, "Do not conform" and another says, however subtly, "Conform," who is it? Who, more than he,-would be interested in what is happen- ing to the family structure in our nation?

In a code of religiosity and piety rather than dynamic transformation within to the image of Christ. Make no mistake, society and the media may be the vehicles by which we are carried to the idol of conformity and appearance, but it is an altar conceived by the adver- sary. If those of us called Christians can be convinced oth- erwise, can be cajoled into thinking that much of what the world espouses today is "not all that bad," then not only will the adversary have succeeded in building his altar for our worship, but he will also have succeeded in getting us to worship there!

The combined efforts of the commercial foods and culinary arts, flo- ral design, massage therapy and cosme- "tology programs gave ticket holders a. day of fun and relaxation. The event was held to introduce the community to some of the programs at Westside and to raise funds for the Foun- dation of Westside Tech. The Foundation provides financial support for students attending the techni- cal center by providing scholarships and other necessary enhancements. Carol Heard, foundation fund-raising coordinator, and Maria Wells, executive director for the foundation, chaired the event. Ken Wells, technology coordina- tor, acted as official photographer. Mary Parker, former staff member and current foundation member, assisted throughout the day. Dr. Peter Berry, assistant direc- tor, coordinated the logistics of trans- portation and facilities, and Penney Park- er, tech prep coordinator, was on hand to lend assistance in several, areas. Vendors were invited to participate in the day. Each vendor, in turn, provided an item for the silent auction that benefit- ed the foundation. Seventy participants were given a choice of any or all eight services for a half-day session. Everyone was treated to a luncheon, a long-stemmed red rose and door prizes in the Outback Caf6, the restaurant of the culinary arts program. The floral design students, under the guidance of instructor Edna Holzworth, decorated the cafeteria. The students cre- ated a garden gazebo featuring a foun- tain, which was provided with funds donated by Great Clips and Action Weld- ing. Several centerpieces created by the students were displayed in the cafeteria. The commercial food and culinary arts students catered the buffet, which con- sisted of finger sandwiches, fresh fruit and salads, under the leadership of instructors Ben Holmes and Marguerite Jirau. Students provided services of mani- cures, pedicures and hair styles, under the supervision of Michelle Holder, cos- metology department chair, and Mike Wells, Lauraine McDonough and Jan Davis, cosmetology instructors. The Great Clips education team of Jenn Linhares and Leslie Rodriquez, led by Michelle Bates, general manager, was on hand to provide haircuts and hair- styles. The students assisted the team by shampooing and styling hair for the guests. Roberta McCaffrey, Patty Green 16B The West Orange 7Trees Thursday, May 12, 2005 and Lou Ann Marris, Mary Kay consul- tants, provided makeup. Lorena Haynes, massage therapy instructor, and Patti Teufel, cosmetology instructor, supervised students providing facials, body wraps and chair massages. Participants were transported from the cosmetology lab and the massage therapy room by golf carts driven by Mike Wells; Tom Whitman, Phi Beta Lambda presi- dent; and Walt Cobb, school director. In addition to the Westside golf cart, golf carts from the West Orange Country Club and Dr. Phillips ACE Center were also on loan for the day. Westside Tech would like to thank everyone for making the day such a suc- cess. Those who purchased a ticket for the day or donated items or their time played a role in enriching the lives of the students. A special thank-you goes to The West Orange Times for the ad for the event and for two one-year subscriptions to The West Orange Times. Also, the following vendors and busi- nesses are greatly appreciated for their contributions: Air Gas, Creative Memo- ries, Great Clips, Mary Kay Products, Party Lite, Premier Jewelry, Viola's Bou- tique, JC Penney of Seminole Town Cen- ter and Home Interiors.
