Lakeview Ave. Fowler mall suffers setback, another postponement likely Photo by Amy Quesinberry A school's legacy on leather William'Bill' Nichols Jr. was captain of the Lakeview High School football team back in 1930, and his teammates presented him with a game ball recording all the names of the players, members of the pep squad and Coach John Davis, plus the 1930 season record (8-1-1) and scores of each game. For 74 years, Nichols had the ball in his possession, but now he's passing it on to the Winter Garden History Center. Nichols, 93, made the presentation Tuesday with his daugh- ter, Anne Reynolds, and granddaughter, Leigh Anne Taylor. As a child, he lived in a home on South Dillard Street for 10 years. More of Nichols' full and rich life will be featured next week. Nextel wants antenna on Oakland water tower By Amy Quesinberry Nextel customers frustrated by "the dead zone" in west Oak- land could hear their phone con- versations better if the cellular phone company gets its way. John Beacham, a project man- ager with Baran Telecom, which handles cell tower site location, spoke at last week's Oakland Town Commission about Nex- tel's desire to place a locator antenna on the catwalk of the town's water tower. A 12-by-20- foot building would also have to be constructed nearby, possibly behind the post office or under- neath the tower, both of which are in the town center. Beacham stressed the fact that this would be a source of rev- enue to Oakland. Police Chief Tim Driscoll expressed his sup- port of better Nextel service. Though interested, the com- missioners had a number of con- cerns. The building would have to blend in with the surrounding historic buildings. The town will one day have a larger post office, which could affect the Nextel building, depending on its loca- tion. The main pump house is in close proximity to the water tower. Beacham pointed out that architectural and aesthetic details would be addressed and said there is too much ground between the water tower and the pump to do any harm. The best location, Beacham said, is directly under the water tower. But, according to Town Engineer Larry Roberts, "It looks pretty clean under the tower, but it's really complicated underneath the ground." After discussing the matter, Mayor Kathy Stark asked the commissioners to express their opinions individually to Town Manager Maureen Rischitelli. The town will address the issue (See Oakland, 3A) UCF, Ga. researchers: Hurricane winds most likely to hit N.C., Florida cities Hurricane-force winds are most likely to strike this year in Cape Hatteras, N.C., Miami Beach and Naples, according to an analysis of coastal cities by a University of Central Florida professor and a Georgia researcher released Friday. Cape Hatteras has a 10.31 per- cent chance of experiencing hur- ricane-force winds this year, fol- lowed by Miami Beach at 10.16 percent and Naples at 10.01 per- cent, based on an analysis of hur- ricane tracks during the past 154 years and of ocean and climate conditions for 2005. UCF statistics professor Mark Johnson and Chuck Watson, founder of Kinetic Analysis Corp. of Savannah, Ga., analyzed 35 cities on the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico coasts. Their findings are available on hurricane.methaz.org, a Web site that tracks storms worldwide and lists estimates of how much dam- age specific hurricanes are likely to cause based on their tracks and property records. The probabilities of hurricane- force winds (winds of 74 mph or greater) striking other U.S. cities include 9.12 percent for West Palm Beach; 6.87 for New Orleans; 6.66 percent for Wilm- ington, N.C.; and 5.08 for Charleston, S.C. Such odds might seem low and even comforting .to residents whose homes were battered by multiple storms last year. How- ever, Johnson and Watson said residents still need to prepare to protect their homes and stock up on food, water and other sup- plies. Even a five percent chance is high. '"There's a one-in-20 chance that your house will at least expe- rience roof damage and that you could be sitting in the dark for several days," Watson said. "If you buy a lottery ticket every week for a one-in-several-million chance to get rich, doesn't it make sense to prepare for a one- in-20 or even one-in-100 chance of something bad happening?" While South Florida cities, such as Naples, Fort Lauderdale , and West Palm Beach, are always at higher risk of storms than North Florida, this year the odds of hurricane-force winds for South Florida are well above the average during the past 154 years, Johnson and Watson con- cluded. The odds of hurricane-force winds hitting cities in northern Florida and along the Gulf of Mexico coast in Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana are lower than usual. The researchers attributed those differences to global atmospheric patterns that control the steering currents or the upper- level winds that determine the directions that storms follow. This year, the winds should (See Hurricanes, 3A) By Michael Laval Plans for a mega shopping center in south Winter Garden, once thought by many to be on a fast track to development, have hit another road block. Acting City Manager Michael Bollhoefer made an announce- ment at last Thursday's Winter Garden City Commission meet- ing that could result in another setback for the Sembler Co., which seeks to develop the pro- posed Winter Garden Village at Fowler Groves. After reading aloud a letter from Sembler that described its recently revised site plan as proof of the developer's willing- ness to work with local residents and listen to their concerns, Bollhoefer said he would ask Sembler representatives to seek a postponement of their upcom- ing public hearing. "Staff needs sufficient time to review these significant changes to the site plan," he said. Sembler designers cut the shopping center down by nearly a third, from more than 1.5 mil- lion to 1.1 million square feet, last month. Changes included a realigned, six-lane Daniels Road, the addition of 40 acres of residential space and the sub- traction of a 24-screen movie theater and one "big box" store. A first reading and public hearing for three mall-related ordinances had been set for the June 9 City Commission meet- ing. The proposed ordinances have already been postponed at two previous commission meet- ings. In his report to the commis- sion, Bollhoefer responded to a series of questions regarding the proposed open-air mall that had been posed to him by citizens at the May 12 meeting. The Fowler family, he made (See Mall, 3A) Ocoee plans to form Clean Lakes Group Did you know there are 17 lakes within the Ocoee city lim- its? Most of these lakes provide great recreational activities, such as fishing, bird watching and picnicking; and some have boat ramps. These lakes are a great natural resource, but they are in dan- ger. "Untreated stormwater runoff, trash, unwanted water plants, non-maintained septic systems and inconsiderate Jet- Skiers and boaters are having an impact on the quality of our lakes," said Gabrielle Milch, the city's water conservation coordinator. Ocoee lakefront homeowners and all interested residents were scheduled to meet at City Hall on Wednesday, June 1, at 7 p.m. to discuss forming a Clean Lakes Program, to review boating rules and to consider possible lakeshore protections. Mayor Scott Vandergrift initiated the idea for this Clean Lakes Program, which is being supported by Ocoee Stormwa- ter Operations Supervisor Buddy Elmore. The group has held two other meetings and have discussed such things as boating and Jet Ski safety issues, water pollu- tion impacts and invasive plants potentially affecting fishing opportunities and recreational boating.

According to Principal Pat Ramsey-Baney, the office staff should be mov- ing in the last week of June and teachers will begin setting up their new classrooms July 25. "We are really excited to move in and prepare for our new students coming to school on Aug. 8," the principal said. Teachers have already been meeting to plan for the school year and working with their new grade-level teams. Parents have formed 11 committees to work toward "a fantastic. opening," Ramsey-Baney said. Parents can call PTA Presi- dent Suzanne Ehrbar at 407- 877-4985 to become a member of the organization.

There will be no planning for the new school year, no student names to memorize, no class- room to decorate in August. After 26 years as a classroom teacher at Dillard Street Elemen- tary School, Spears is retiring. Her plans this summer are to travel to Branson, Mo., with a group of friends and head up north with Ray, her husband of nearly 50 years, to enjoy relax- ing family time with their two sons and four grandchildren (ages 4-19) in Wisconsin and Illinois. "I knew this was my last year," Spears told The West Orange Times. "I feel like when you finish, you want to finish on top. You want to feel like you've done your best." Spears, a third-grade teacher who spent most of this school year preparing her students for the FCAT, was excited about Dillard's much-improved scores. She credits the teachers for putting forth their hardest r , Photo by Amy Quesinberry After 26 years as a Dillard Street Elementary School Dragon, Betty Spears is headed for retirement. efforts, as well as the opportuni- ties the year-old school building offers. "I think children do better when they have the facilities to promote learning," she said. Before students moved to the current facility, classes were set up across the street in cramped portables that made teaching more difficult. Now they have a computer lab and "so many more resources," she said. After the move, Spears said, she saw an improvement in the children's attitudes, as well as their grades. Earning a college degree and becoming a teacher was always a goal for Spears. Her father died when she was 12 and her siblings were 9 and 3, and her mother was forced to go into the working world. "I saw what could happen," she said, when one isn't pre- pared. "I wanted that protection so that if I ever needed to work I would have skills." She received her bachelor's degree in religious education from New Orleans Baptist Theo- logical Seminary and a Master of Arts in Teaching from Rollins College.

Mall clear, has never been forced off its property. The Fowlers, along with Canin & Associates, first sought rezoning from the City Commission about five years ago with plans for a develop- ment, according to Bollhoefer, but later dropped the idea. Some residents have stated at previous meetings that city plan- ners should focus on restoring dilapidated retail spaces along West Colonial Drive rather than creating new ones in a largely residential area. No concentrated effort has been made by the city to date, Bollhoefer said last Thursday, to fill vacant stores on West Colonial Drive. He hinted, though, at the formation of a Community Redevelopment Agency to help revitalize the State Road 50 corridor once the . highway is widened. "The proper time to attack [Highway] 50 would be after the six-laning, which will happen sooner than people think." Bollhoefer assured residents that the city will make sure prop- - er infrastructure is in place for whatever project is developed on the Fowler property. Winter Gar- den's newest wastewater treat- ment plant, he said, will serve all of South Winter Garden. New water and sewer mains are being installed and plans are in the works for reclaimed water use in the District 4 area. In regard to the city's class- room shortage, Bollhoefer said municipalities are limited in get- ting the Orange County School Board to decide on new school sites. Although Winter Garden has a practice, he said, of work- ing with developers to create space where new schools could be built. The acting city manager added that he and his staff are currently in negotiations with Orange County Public Schools and the Central Florida YMCA to possibly build a public park in South Winter Garden. In another matter, the vision of a nostalgic, "traditional" planned community in West Orange County came closer to being realized at last week's meeting. The elected officials passed an ordinance to rezone 191 acres located along the Winter Gar- den-Oakland border from Resi- dential (R-l) and County (A-l) to City PUD. The land is part of a 258-acre development, one- third of which will stretch into the town of Oakland. Castle & Cooke, the develop- er of Keene's Pointe, plans to turn the property into a 750- home community dubbed Oak- land Park. A large.majority, 575 homes, will reside in Winter Garden. The development will sit along the shores of Lake Apopka, west of Tildenville School Road and north of Oak- land Avenue. Plans for the neighborhood takerinspiration from traditional themed developments like Cele- bration. Only five types of archi- tecture will be allowed in Oak- land Park, and each home will feature a front porch. City Plan- ner Mark Cechman described it as a walking community with the West Orange Trail serving as a main pedestrian artery. The next steps for Castle & Cooke are to return before the commission for preliminary plat approval and to work out an interlocal agreement between Oakland and Winter Garden. Oakland Park planner John Rinehart told the commission he expects the first homes in Oak- land Park to be occupied by 2006.

Some elected officials expressed concern with the pos- sible burden Oakland Park will have on area schools. Commis- sioner"Theo Graham said new schools should be built to help accommodate children living in the new community since most local schools are already at or beyond capacity. Orange County Public Schools Director of Planning and Development Dennis Foltz explained to the commissioners that this simply isn't how the system works: "I wish we could build schools before they fill up. But the money comes from the state, and we cannot build a school until we know there's enough students. We do not have control over state and federal programs, and neither do you."

An'nu'i'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.

I f y 4A The West Orange Times Thursday, June 2, 2005 Opinion Reader opinions Letters to the editor Reader believes Megaa strip center' is a mistake Joe Story Burch at his grand piano, where he loved to p.ay his favorite tunes, which wafted across Lake Cypress.'The Spanish Dancer' above the piano is 1 of his many works of art. Remembering Joe Burch Joe Story Burch the artist, the ex-surfer, the flower gardener, the downhill skier, the sculptor, the husband of Betty and father of Jennifer, Jeff, Elliot and Grady lived an extremely full and imag- inative life amongst the spreading oaks and shin- ing cypress trees of the Winter Garden area. Many think of him as one of the best landscape painters in the state of Florida; I am sure many of you have a Joe S. Burch Florida landscape hanging in your living room. And if you don't, I'll bet you have seen his mural work in Ronnie's Restaurant, the Bay Hill Club, the Langford Hotel or in dozens of other establishments and residences in the Orlando area. Joe never stopped exploring his creativity. When he wasn't working on an, art commission, he might be found at his Cypress Lake home installing a custom Aztec mosaic (made from Laura Ashley paint "chips") around the bathroom sink, attempting to scare away the large alligator sometimes seen near his dock or trying to snap a photo of a brilliantly colored painted bunting at the window feeder. He was also well known for his ability to play a bridge hand while surrounded by -top-notch women players, including his wife, Betty. Joe also took great pride in his community service for Meals on Wheels, delivering hot meals to elderly residents in West Orange County. He loved to brag about the exotic cheeses that he made in his own refrigerator (far better than that expensive stuff from France, he'd say), -his exper- imental candied tangerine rind treats or his exotic mummified, pickledfard-boiled eggs that none of us would touch with a 10.foot pole! Joe lived his passionate love of music and dance in his own way by ice-skating and Rollerblading. As the rural countryside of his childhood became consumed by new subdivisions, Joe would take great pleasure in finding the latest street or cul-de- sac with the smoothest asphalt! He also loved to play his grand piano, especially at night with the porch doors open so his favorite tunes could waft across the lake. Once at a ski lodge in Killington, Vt., Joe requested "Ice Castles" of the piano play- er. The piano player did not know it. Joe said, "I've got the sheet music in the car." "What?" he said incredulously. Joe trudged through 12 inches of newly fallen snow to retrieve the music from the car. Joe wrote: "I handed it to him (with the entire room's attention by now). He read it twice, gave it back and played it beautifully." It was through trips such as these that Joe devel- oped his fine storytelling. He loved to talk and be the life of the party. His large, loving family will miss him dearly and will continue to celebrate his life in his absence. Joe's immediate family includes his wife, four children, eight grandchil- dren, his younger brother, Selby, and Selby's three children. "Joe S. Burch, Sept. 18, 1925, to May 26, 2005." Respectfully, Elliot Burch Dear Editor, First let's set one thing straight. This is not a "mall" nor is it a "village" it is a mega strip center! The community of Winter Garden has the lux- ury of shopping at Sam's, Super Wal-Mart, SuperTarget, Lowes, Home Depot, Circuit City, Best Buy, Toys 'R' Us and several other big box stores within a five- to 10-minute drive. Sure, you have to drive to Ocoee or Clermont to do it, but isn't that better than adding traffic to our local streets for those amenities? If this goes through, then we can kiss "down- town Winter Garden" goodbye, as well as what shops are left on Highway 50 and Dillard Street. Winter Garden has several small strip centers along 50 that are mostly filled with thrift stores and dollar stores or simply no stores at all. Why does anyone think that Winter Garden needs or will support 1..1 million square feet of retail space? The answer is simple it doesn't and it won't. This mega strip center is for Horizons West and Windermere so they won't have to drive 20-30 minutes to get to Ocoee or, heaven forbid, Cler- mont. And you'll never see a big box store in Windermere. Someday when the rooftops are in, Horizons West will add a "village" of its own- and will no longer make the trek to Winter Gar- den. Then what will we do with 1.1 million square feet of thrift stores and dollar stores and empty stores? In looking at Sembler's Web site, I see that our area has one of the highest per capital incomes of any area that Sembler has a project under devel- opment in. What this tells me is that we need to wait a little longer for a developer with a true vision to see Winter Garden for what it really is. We are the gateway to the new west Orange County, and a true "village" here would serve Winter Garden, Ocoee and Oakland, as well as Windermere and Horizons West with fine dining and shopping opportunities without all of the traffic and crime and pure ugliness that come with the big box stores. Put in a true "Winter Park Village" or "Dr. Phillips Shoppes" and you'll get my vote and you'll truly build something that will increase the value of homes in Winter Garden, Ocoee and, yes, even Windermere. . I think 500,000 square feet should do it, with half a dozen fine restaurants, maybe a Starbucks for Sunday mornings, several fine retailers like Tommy Bahama or Ann Taylor Loft, a six- or 12-screen movie theater (there are never 24 good movies out at the same time anyway) with a few specialty shops mixed in. These are the shops we have to drive a half hour or more to find and do so on a regular basis. When I entertain clients here in Winter Gar- den, my choices are very limited (Woodie's, Choctaw Willy's). Most of our clients find them quaint and enjoy them for lunch. But a power dinner? No, we have to drive to Dr. Phillips or Winter Park Village to go to a Roy's or Blackfin to make a lasting impression. Let's take a stand and make this a "true vil- lage" that we can all be proud of. If not, the worst that can happen is we add another 700- 1,000 homes which will only generate another 2,000 to 4,000 trips a day instead of 30,000- 50,000 that the mega strip center will generate. Vote no on Winter Garden Village at Fowler Groves.

Her first class was 1928- 29. Among her students in that first-grade class at Ocoee Elementary was Betty Salisbury Hagar. 20 years ago Editor's notebook: There used to be frequent mixups in the county school office between Ray Aldridge, director of personnel, and Roy Eldridge, associate superintendent for elemen- tary education. Eldridge himself dramatized it hilariously in a skit at Aldridge's retirement roast and probably thought the problem had been laid to rest. Not so. Eldridge had a call from a travel agent that his airline tickets to San Francisco were all in order. The trip was a gift to Ray Aldridge at his retirement party. 15 years ago Hollywood film legend Steven Spielberg was joined by a large array of movie stars, including Jimmy Stewart, Ben Vereen, Angie Dickinson, Bill Cosby, Michael J.

THE COST OF SELLING YOUR HOME PART TWO: AFTER THE SALE The money you spent on repairs and cosmetic improvements has helped your home to sell quickly. Now that the proper- ty is about to change hands, what other expenses will be associated with the sale? First, you will need to pay off your mortgage. This amount is the difference between your outstanding principal bal- ance and what payments you will make before the date your transaction closes. If your loan has a prepayment penalty, add that to your principal balance. Ask your lender to confirm your calculations. Costs associated with the closing of the sale include transfer taxes, prorated prop- erty taxes and legal fees. As the seller, you will be responsible for paying your real estate agent's sales commission, which usually amounts to between four and six percent of your selling price. The cost of moving to your new home may range from $1,500 to move across town to $10,000 or more to move across the country. This amount depends on the distance and the size of your home. Besides paying the moving company, your relocation expenses may include buying new appliances for your new home and making deposits for utilities. Fortunately, moving expenses are tax- deductible. Ask your tax accountant about how much deduction you will be allowed.

High-speed Wireless Internet I,.ItlI.- TV Local and Long Distance Consumers urged to obtain free credit reports Florida Agriculture and Con-, sumer Services Commissioner Charles Bronson is urging con- sumers to take advantage of a law that requires major credit reporting services to provide free credit reports. The amendment to the Fair Credit Reporting Act .was designed to provide consumers who cannot or will not pay a fee for the reports with access them for free once a year. The law has been phased in across the United States, with Florida residents becoming eligible for the documents June 1. "Reviewing your credit his- tory is one of the most impor- tant steps people can take to avoid identity theft," Bronson said. "If consumers find out that someone is using their identity or credit cards without their knowledge, the credit reports may be the first hint they have that there is a prob- lem." A credit report contains information about a con- sumer's credit history, includ- ing a listing of all credit cards, whether bills have been paid on time and whether the con- sumer has been -sudd, arrested or filed for bankruptcy. National consumer reporting agencies sell the information to credit card companies and other creditors, insurers, employers and other business- es that use it to determine whether to approve an applica- tion for credit, insurance, loans and employment. "Consumers should regular- ly review these reports for any mistakes," Bronson said. "Identity theft is not the only concern. False information that hurts someone's credit rating can mean the difference of whether they can buy a home or not. It is important to ensure the information is accurate and up to date, especially before making a major purchase." .Consumers can challenge and change incorrect informa- tion on the reports. The three major credit reporting agencies are Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. To obtain a free copy of reports from these agencies, log onto the Web site www.AnnualCreditReport.co mn..Bronson warns that people should be wary of any other Web sites that claim to offer free reports but require a sub- scription or fee. Consumers can also order their reports by calling 1-877-322-8228. Visit your new one-stop shop for the latest in communications and entertainment!

Steve McCosker of the Ocoee Police Department patrols Starke Lake. Ocoee police and fire have new watercraft to use As the weather warms up, boaters enjoy the Central Florida waters regularly. During this boating season the Ocoee Police Department* will have an increased presence on Starke Lake and Lake Prima Vista. Last year, the Ocoee City Commis- sion approved the purchase of a personal watercraft to be used by the police and fire departments. Selected firefighters and police officers received training from the Orange County Sheriff's Office Marine Patrol Unit in both patrol and rescue tech- niques. Just like motorists on the highways, boaters on the water have rules they need to obey while operating their vessels. Before getting onto the water- ways, it is imperative that the person who is responsible for operating the watercraft be familiar not only with laws per- taining to the operation of the vessel but also with navigation rules and buoy and marker iden- tification. All vessels must carry a per- sonal floatation device for each person onboard and a Type B fire extinguisher. The use of per- sonal watercraft requires the operator to have a whistle or some other sound device for alerting other boaters. Some waterways require the boat to have visual distress sig- nals, such as flares.

Disney embarks on expedition to Himalayas i Disney is embarking on an expedition to the Himalayas to explore the legendary "realm of the yeti." Conservation Interna- tional and Discovery Networks will join Disney on "Expedition Everest: Mission Himalayas" in the search for new species and ancient legends. The scientific and cultural journey to China and the eastern Himalayas is planned for August through October. "This extraordinary expedi- tion...is another example of the lengths to which Walt Disney Imagineering will go to research subject matter in developing our story lines," said Jay Rasulo, Disney Parks and Resorts presi- dent. Scientists from global conser- vation leader Conservation International and Disney's Ani- mal Kingdom will search for undiscovered species likely to lie in those remote regions known as biodiversity hot sports, Earth's biologically richest and most threatened places. "Due to the fact that this region has gone largely unex- plored, we believe that, in all likelihood, new specials of plants and animals not yet known to science will be discov- ered," said Dr. Russell Mitter- meier, president of Conservation International. Imagineers are joining the journey in hopes of bringing a new level of authenticity to Expedition Everest, the massive attraction under development at Animal Kingdom. The attraction is a high-speed adventure that combines coaster-like thrills with the folklore of the yeti. Guests will depart from a Tibetan village on a train jour- ney into the snowy heights of the Himalayan peak. A run-in with the yeti the guardian of the mountain will send traVelers on a forward and backward hair- raising escape. At nearly 200 feet high, Expedition Everest will open in 2006.

She subbed at various local schools after moving to Winter Garden in 1973, and became a full-time teacher at Dillard Street six years later. Now, 26 class pictures later, Spears is ready for a new full- time adventure: retirement. The faculty hosted a party in her honor a few weeks ago, and she was showered with cards, a plaque given in gratitude of her dedication and service, and gifts, including a memory box that she said she will use to store Dillard Street Dragon memories. At the reception, her class pic- tures were on display, and among the attendees were a for- mer student, now in 10th grade, and an ADDitions aide from years past. The Classroom Teachers Association also hosted a retire- ment reception, and Spears is invited to another one next week given by Orange County Public Schools. What will Spears miss most in the fall? "The thing I, perhaps, enjoy the most is the first weeks of school when you get a new group of children; it's a fresh start," she said. "I like to not look at old reputations, past grades. It's a new start for all the kids." This fall will be anew start for Spears as well Hold your event at Tanner Hall Tanner Hall on Lake Apopka is available for rental for events on weekends and weekdays.

C.~ The Ocoee High Knights have hired their fastpitch softball coach. Sue North, the six-year veteran coach at West Orange High, will open the school's softball program in 2006. She is the second coach to come to Ocoee after leading her team to a state Final Four appearance in 2005. Both North and Scott Eggleston, Ocoee's new boys basketball coach, led their respective Warrior teams to the state finals this year. Coach North comes to Ocoee High with a career record of 121-55, which carries a 70 per- cent winning average over her six seasons. She took over a West Orange High program that was struggling and helped make that program one of the best in Central Florida. Over the past three seasons, WOHS was 72-18, including two regional final appearances and the recent state finals show- ing. Coach North guided the Lady Warriors to undefeated Metro Conference champi- onships in both 2003 and 2005. She began her coaching career at West Orange in 1999 with no previous coaching experience. After a slow first season, she has strung together five consecutive winning seasons at WOHS. North came to West Orange after finishing an outstanding playing career at the University of Illinois at Chicago. She played at UIC from 1993-1999 and led her team to the 1994 College World Series by hitting back-to-back game-winning home runs in the regional semi- finals and finals. She played third base for most of her col- lege career. She was a 1998 inductee into the UIC Athletic Hall of Fame and remains statis- tically in the top 10 in four cate- gories at her school. She also ranks ninth in UIC history in games played (256), at-bats (719) and RBIs (126), and she sits 10th on the all-time records with 214 hits. North was a first-team all- conference selection in 1994 and appeared in two NCAA regional finals, 1994 in Bloomington, Indiana, (where she led UIC to the World Series) and in 1995 in Ann Arbor, Mich. ..

Dues were paid, officers elected and by-laws passed. My thanks go out to those who served on the sub- committees to bring our first official organization to fruition. I would like to introduce the inaugural officers of the OHS PTSA: president, Billy Flani- gan; first vice president, Shan- non Brooks; second vice presi- dent, Wanda Whitehead; trea- surer, Laura Keller; reporting secretary, Dona Dickerson; and corresponding secretary, Rose- mary Wilson. Memberships in the PTSA are $5 per person, and it is my hope that everyone will join this wonderful organization and help us truly make Ocoee High a community committed to our students. Future PTSA meeting times will be posted on the Web site at http://www.ocoeehighschool.oc ps.net as they are determined. For a school built upon the 40 developmental assets required to build a "Healthy Commuii- ty," I cannot over-stress the importance of your contribu- tions of time, talents and fund- ing to make a difference in the lives of our youth and, ultimate- ly, our very community. I hope you will take the first step to participating in our school by joining the PTSA. All we need is $5 and your name, address, phone number and e-mail. With that, you will be a part of the inaugural PTSA for OHS and a part of the vision that "Every student will gradu- ate." You can mail your check and information to Ocoee High School, C/O Westside Tech, 955 E. Story Road, Winter Gar- den, FL 34787. Don't delay - join today. This past week we also held our first schoolwide Athletic Booster Club meeting. For those of you interested in par- ticipating in the next meeting, it will be held Thursday, June 16, from 6-7 p.m. in the media cen- ter at Westside Tech. The group will be developing by-laws, appointing a.nominating com- mittee and planning a school- wide fund-raising program for athletics at-OHS. We had a great turnout, and the response to having one ath- letic booster organization was very positive. Speaking of ath- letics, our Black and Gold foot- ball game held at Ocoee's Bull- dog Field was wonderful. The young athletes showed they are ready to open Ocoee High's first football season with an exciting offense and a funda- mentally sound defense. Their enthusiasm was contagious on the sidelines. I appreciate the attitude and discipline the coaches, under the leadership of Head Coach Greg Dailer, have already instilled into the team. In fact, after the game, the players asked the coaches if they could do Ocoee drills on the field. That work ethic is a great sign of the days to come. We are still busyhiring teach- ers and have started hiring clas- sified positions, along with cus- todial and cafeteria personnel. I am excited to welcome Carol Powers to. our staff as cafeteria -UIIR n UTIe SCHOOL - A'GREATER EDUCATION manager. Her -excitement and can-do attitude is just what we need to make our one-hour lunch program work. She brings with her a wealth of experience and great ideas to make our food services pro- gram stand out and benefit our students every day. She will be hiring employees for the cafeteria, so if you know of someone who is interested in working in that capacity, have them contact our office at 407- 905-2023 and share their name with us. 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 community school or visit our Web site at http://www.ocoeehighschool.oc ps.net.

I - Chain of Lakes Middle School students Jessica DeLaplaz and- Lissy Hennemann study each other's faces as Trey Greene tells them what to observe. Perfect faces Sixth-graders in Robin Stew- art's math classes at Chain of Lakes Middle have been study- ing gods and goddesses. One of their projects was to study proportions of the face. Queen Nefertiti is said to have the most beautiful face because hers is the most per- fectly proportioned one. A Gold- en Ratio was found after mea- suring her face's characteristics. Stewart took pictures of all her students. Trey Green visited the classes and discussed vari- ous facial features as he showed each student's picture. Then the students did their math. After all this, the god and god- dess of the advanced class were selected. The god was Jarred Smith, and the goddess was Kelsey Brown. For more information on this topic and on what's happening in her classes, visit Stewart's Web site at teachers.ocps.net/ stewarr2.

"But He was pierced through for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities." What preceded His doing that for us in Chapter 53 was the time alone with the Father in Chapter 50.

All the mornings in the lonely place had steeled our Lord for obedience in the very public place of crucifixion.
