Join the Ocoee Historical Commission Interested members of the community are invited to attend the meetings of the Ocoee Historical Com- mission on the second Thursday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Ocoee Woman's Club on Lake- wood Avenue. - The city's property tax rates will not increase for the 11th year in a row. By Michael Laval The search for a new city manager in Winter Garden has ended. The City Commission voted during last Thursday's meeting at the former West Orange Youth Center building to hire Michael Bollhoefer, who had served as acting city manager since the retirement of Hollis Holden in April. City officials moved the meet- ing from City Hall to the makeshift facility to accommo- date the large number of people in attendance, some carrying signs that read "Hire Mike." Many citizens wore stickers on their chests that proclaimed their opposition to political activist Doug Guetzloe. Commissioner Theo Graham interrupted the meeting's regular business to make a statement in support of offering Bollhoefer a contract. "I've worked with him for more than nine years, and since Mike has taken this role in the past three months, he has shown outstanding leadership," he said. "I think Mike will serve us well and he'd have to prove me wrong." Graham's statements sparked a standing ovation among most of the hundreds in attendance. Commissioner Carol Nichols seconded Graham's motion to offer Bollhoefer a two-year con- tract as city manager. "Since I've been in office, Michael has helped me at every direction," Nichols said. The commission passed Gra- ham's motion, and Bollhoefer graciously accepted the offer. "Being city manager is one of the most challenging jobs, espe- cially during a transition peri- od," said Bollhoefer. "But I want the job, and I'm convinced I can do a good job." Bollhoefer's first order of business as city manager was to recommend retaining the city's current millage rate. He also dis- pelled rumors being spread about the city's finances. "There's a handout going around downtown making some outrageous claims," Bollhoefer said. "Very dangerous informa- tion is being put into the com- munity." An overhead projection dis- played a flier that had been dis- tributed throughout the commu- nity in recent weeks. The flier, Bollhoefer said, incorrectly stat- ed that Winter Garden had a $90 million surplus. Windermere makes progress on Main Street improvements There have been a few delays due to recent rainy weather, but the street ed looking south on Main Street in Windermere in front of Main Greer said Street Realty, passersby can see the progress. Curbing along should be of "That number is not our sur- plus; that is our total assets," he said. Bollhoefer, who had served as Winter Garden's finance director for eight years, cited the city's total General Fund balance as $9.6 million. That figure, he said, drops to $3.8 million when future capital expenditures, such as the construction of a.new city hall and other projects, are included. Later in the meeting, Down- town Winter Garden Merchants Guild President Tina Aldrich denounced the flier displayed by Bollhoefer. "As president of the Mer- chants Guild, I would like to ask whoever is responsible for the flier to stop asking merchants to pass out political propaganda," Aldrich said. As he gave a thorough break- down of the city's General Fund, Bollhoefer explained the impor- Photo by Andrew Bailey ges and center line is in, and Project Manager Don at Tuesday's Town Council meeting that detours f the town's dirt streets sometime next month. Tax hike likely in Windermere - The Town Council is proposing a tax rate of 3.9 mills for 2005-06. By Kathy Aber Windermere may have lost its bragging rights for maintaining the lowest millage rate in Orange County. At its budget meeting last Wednesday, the Town Council adopted a proposed tax rate increase of one mill for the Fis- cal Year 2005-06 by a vote of 3- 2. Council members Fred Pryor, Matt Sullivan and Stephen With- ers voted in favor of the budget, and council members Genevieve Potthast and Ron Martin voted against it. The proposed new rate is 3.9 mills, a 45.09 percent increase over the rolled-back rate. For a property in town with an assessed value of $300,000 and no homestead exception, the owners would pay $1,170 in town taxes, as compared to $870 at last year's rate. The proposed budget total is $3,103,905 for the fiscal year beginning Oct. 1. Finance Clerk Linda Harrison told The West Orange Times on Monday that Belle Isle might now be able to boast the lowest tax rate in the county if its mill- age remains at 3.6655 for the coming year. Windermere residents are not accustomed to annual tax increases. For seven straight years, until October 2004, the town maintained the tax rate at 2.4 mills. Last year, residents experienced a .5 millage rate increase and are facing a whole mill increase this year, if the budget remains as proposed. A tentative budget hearing is set for Sept. 7 at 6 p.m. and the final budget vote is scheduled for Sept. 19. Following last week's vote, the tax rate cannot be raised, but the council can vote to lower it. When Town Manager Cecilia Bernier and Council Liaison Pryor put the budget proposal together using last year's mill- age rate, the amount needed to balance the budget was $389,352. In addition, committee requests of $284,900 and esti- mates for repairs and mainte- nance on town buildings of $133,790 were not funded at 2.9 mills. The millage rate increase to 3.9 mills adds $413,783 to next year's revenue accounts. At the budget workshop, the council worked to pare down committee requests and building maintenance estimates to bal- ance the budget. In her budget presentation, Bernier said town revenues were negatively impacted by low interest rates this year and by the use of the town's reserve funds for hurricane cleanup. Proposed expenditures for the town's general accounts are $1,127,557. This figure includes increases in insurance costs from $99,000 last year to $116,300 for next year and a $15,000 increase for town plan- ning services. Projected office expenses increased from $300,536 last year to $367,467. The budget proposal includes increasing the town manager's salary to $65,000. This is her first raise in three years. In addition, the town has a generous employee benefit package. Employees have nine paid holidays and 12 sick days per year, and as an extra incen- tive, any time an employee accu- mulates more than 12 unused sick days, the first 12 days are banked and the balance is paid to the employee once a year. No new employees are being added to the town staff. This account also includes the addition of a color copier and $2,000 for a town celebration at the conclu- sion of the downtown project. Estimated expenses for public safety and the police department total $873,425. The town has 12 full-time officers, including the chief, one full-time clerk and six reserve officers. The police vehicle maintenance budget was increased by $12,200, primarily due to the higher cost of gaso- line. The projected budget for streets and roads increased by $28,828 with $26,750. for the resurfacing of Bayshore Drive. In the building and grounds budget ($168,327) the council included reroofing the library community room, records room and police department ($21,085) and $40,000 to begin additional repairs to the library detailed in a report by Withers. The budget for Parks and Recreation for next year decreased from $56,500 to $26,400 primarily due to expen- ditures this year of $35,100 for bike path and sidewalk repairs. Major capital expenditures proposed ($121,945), both fixed and variable, include the final payment on a water tanker, 2003 police car and 2004 police car and the lease-purchase of a trac- tor ($12,000) for the mainte- nance department. The Tree Board budget will be $7,500, Parks and Recreation has been allotted $15,000 for the services of a professional plan- ner for Johnson Park, and the Traffic Committee has $15,000 for traffic sign posts and $5,000 for the. street signs along Sixth Avenue. The mayor's request for $10,000 to televise town meet- ings was not included in the pro- posed budget. The budget total also includes $1,131 for contingencies. The budget also has a line item of $766,853 for grant matching funds. This is not included in the budget total. The (See Windermere, 3A) Oakland expects to keep same millage rate By Amy Quesinberry It's budget time, and the Oak- land Town Commission is preparing for another fiscal year. As in years past, the commis- sion raised its tentative millage rate one mill to allow for a buffer when planning next year's bud- get. The elected officials fully expect, to drop the rate back down to the previous year's rate as part of the budget process. The commission has estab- lished a tentative millage rate of 5.9245. Last year's rate was 4.9245. Once the rate is set, it can be lowered but not raised unless all property owners are notified by mail. The Town Commission will hold a budget workshop Aug. 9 and, if needed, Aug. 23. The adoption hearing on the tentative millage and budget is Sept. 12, with the final millage and budget hearing set for Sept. 26. Fiscal Year 2005-06 begins Oct. 1. In other business, the elected officials: made a commitment to honor Jim Thomas's request to each write a letter to the Orange County Commission in support of the Oakland Nature Preserve and its upcoming projects. Thomas, ONP president, said the board is ready to move forward with its environmental education center, a centennial project spon- sored by 11 local Rotary clubs. He will address the County Commission at a meeting this Thursday, asking for monetary support in the way of grant funds. Thomas told Oakland last week: "Our dream is to build an environmental education center at that park. We are already edu- cating children in West Orange County. We need that education center." heard from Commissioner Mona Phipps, who said the Green Mountain Scenic Byway Committee was to meet last Thursday and was completing the application process. The town was invited to join the scenic byway by the Corridor Advocacy Group. The portion of County Road 438 that lies within Oakland's town limits would be added to the existing corridor of the Green Mountain Scenic Byway, which currently includes County Road 455 and Old High- way 50 in Lake County. This is all part of the Florida Scenic Highways Program. .manager tance of having a healthy fund balance. "If you don't have a surplus when the city's growth period ends, you won't have the money to do what you want to do," he said. Having a strong fund balance, he continued, is necessary to continue providing citizens with high levels of service without needing to lay off city employ- ees during an economic reces- sion. The funds are also required, he said, to weather emergencies and pay for com- munity redevelopment projects. For those reasons, Bollhoefer recommended retaining the cur- rent millage rate of 4.304. If the commission chose to roll back the rate, he said, a resident with a $300,000 home would save (See Manager, 3A) New 'Times' deadlines go into effect next week By Mary Anne Swickerath As announced last week, The West Orange Times will have earlier deadlines for news and advertising that will become effective the week of July 25.

Leonard Merrell Converse, 86, was a man who achieved success in four careers before dying peacefully Tuesday, July 12, at his home in Winter Gar- den. He was born in 1919 in Springfield, Mass., where he joined the Navy at age 17. He became a communications offi- cer and was in charge of the radio room in Washington, D.C., on Dec. 7, 1941. As one of the first to hear that news that Pearl Harbor was under attack, he had the duty to pass the news up the chain of command to the president. "He served on the old 'four stacker' destroyers that were built before World War II," recalled his nephew, Don Con- verse. He also undertook special assignments for the Navy; his passport showed he entered French Morocco when it was occupied by the Germans. On D-Day, he was on one of the ships that launched the land- ing craft for the invasion. Although he was not supposed to land himself, he ended up hit- ting the beach after his damaged ship started sinking. He served on destroyers during World War II and the Korean War. While in port, he joined the Masonic Order and became a Master Mason in 1949 in San Francis- co. He retired from the Navy in 1957 as a chief warrant officer. "He was very gregarious and loved to swap stories about our time in the Navy," said Robert Baker, president of the Hyde Park Homeowners Association and a submariner. "Even after he got out of the Navy, he used his communications skills as a ham radio operator to assist dur- ing disasters, back in the days before cell phones." His second career was as a logistic manager for General Baby dolls, towels needed for patients Health Central Park needs baby dolls and doll clothes, tow- els and face cloths for the Special Care/Dementia wing.

The Converses joined the church in 1979 and moved to Hyde Park in Winter Garden in 1991 so they could work in the temple. He was a volunteer for this fourth career, but he worked harder than ever. "They were a wonderful cou- ple who spent many hours working with people who came. to the temple from all over the. Caribbean and southeastern. U.S.," said Belnap. When Hyde Park was hit by a. tornado, the homes across the, street were heavily damaged. "The neighborhood had no electricity, but he was prepared with a generator and other' emergency supplies." He and Jenny made big pots of soup and shared it with everyone," said neighbor Dorothy D'Am- brosio. "They were positive people.

In addition, the town expend- ed $2,560,311 for hurricane damage ,and to date has been reimbursed $874,352 by FEMA. The town estimates $1,154,898 is still due from FEMA. On Sept. 30, 2004, Winder- mere had $1,361,116 in reserve funds, which were used along with some funds from the oper- ating budget for the hurricane costs. The FEMA reimburse- ments will go back into the operating budget first and then be accumulated in undesignat- ed reserve funds set aside for use as matching funds for grants. All future budget hearings will take place in Town Hall beginning at 6 p.m. During its regular meeting last Tuesday, the Town Council agreed to a rate increase for the Town Attorney Cliff Shepard by a vote of 3-2. Council members Potthast and Martin voted no. In discus- sion, Mayor Gary Bruhn voiced concern about the increased cost of Shepard's ser- vices in light of the town's cur- rent cash-flow problems stem- ming from hurricane costs that haven't been reimbursed yet by FEMA. At last' month's meeting, the council hired the law firm of GrayHarris to represent the town in two pending lawsuits. The mayor said he felt the council might have a'lack of confidence in Shepard. Each council member confirmed that he or she was confident in the town attorney. Martin 'said he suggested hiring the other firm to "keep Cliff out. of. the fray" as the pending lawsuits progress through the courts. When asked if his rate increase was a retaliation for last month's action, Shepard said no but added that the-council had approved a blended rate of $200 per hour for..GrayHarris so he felt that his contract fee was too low. "I heard all the council say $200 is a reasonable rate," said Shepard. He said his regular rate is $250 per hour. Shepard has been listed as' one of 23 I~egal Elite attorneys in the state. As of Aug. 1, Shepard's firm will charge a monthly retainer of $2,500 to include up to 15 attorney-hours per month. Hours in excess of 15 per month will be billed at a blend- ed rate of $200 per hour for Girls Scouts reeds volunteers SGirl Scouts of Citrus Council needs volunteers to serve in a vari- eyy of positions, including leaders at the elementary school level.

In other business: the council, on the recom- mendation of the Development Review Board, denied a special exception request by Don Huber Family Limited Partner- ship to operate the old art gallery at 709 Main St. as a new location for Body Coach, a personal training facility that is currently located on Main Street. The council rejected the special exception primarily because the official business district ends at the corner of Seventh Avenue and Main Street, and the property lies within a residential zone. The existing special exception for use as an art gallery will con- tinue, if the owner desires to use it for that purpose. approved a contract with Professional Engineering Con- sultants Inc. not to exceed $9,500 to provide preliminary engineering services and relat- ed right-of-way research to assist the Long-Range Plan- ning Committee in finalizing a sidewalk and bikepath master plan. The contract was unani- mously adopted. Withers presented a work plan put together by the Tree Board to clean up Johnson Park. The proposal included three workdays. The proposal suggested some work by the police department's inmate- work program. Bernier said quite a few residents had called to complain about the use of inmate labor for park cleanup. Some meeting attendees voiced concerns about this part of the plan. Withers also reported on' repairs that were needed on several town buildings, includ- ing the library and Cal Palmer building that were damaged by the hurricanes. This building was previously leased to the consignment shop Finders Keepers. The council deferred a discussion of the lease until the building is repaired. He said the repairs could be, addressed in the budget work- shop. SWithers introduced a motion to appoint Tree Board Janet Maland to review all applications for permits to remove trees. Shepard explained that an ordinance would have to be amended to accomplish this. The motion died for lack of a second. Town Manager Cecilia Bernier said she would seek Maland's advice when situations warrant. authorized the Tree Board to submit an application for an Emergency Hurricane Supple- mental Community Forestry Grant from the U.S. Forest Ser- vice for a maximum award of $125,000.

City Commissioner Rod Reynolds questioned Bollhoe- fer's financial philosophy and suggested rolling back the millage rate or at least con- ducting-a study into the possi- ble affects of a rollback. The city manager explained that a study would not be needed since it is already known that rolling back the property tax rate would result in less sur- plus. "I tend to be more conserv- ative and save for rainy days," said Bollhoefer. "I've seen many communities that were fat and decided to lower their millage rate and then suffered when their growth stopped. It's like mortgaging your chil- dren's future. Sometimes what looks good in the short term can be very dangerous. in the long term." The elected officials voted 4-1 [with Reynolds in opposi- tion] in favor of keeping the current millage rate. This marks the 11th year in a row that Winter Garden residents will not see their property tax rates increase. The 4.304 millage rate means that a property owner with a taxable value of $100,000 would pay $430.40. The rate approved last Thurs- day will be sent to the county property appraiser and cannot be increased after Aug. 4 unless each property owner is notified by mail. A budget workshop will.be held immediately after the Aug 25 City Commission meeting. Budget hearings will be held at 6 p.m. prior to com- mission meetings on Sept. 7 and 21. Following the commission's regular business, 19 citizens addressed the elected officials to express their concerns. The majority spoke passionately about their personal distaste for Guetzloe and their disap- proval of his recent particlpa- tion in Winter Garden politics. Many residents applauded the commission's decision to hire Bollhoefer, while others criticized the firing of former City Attorney Lionel Rubio at the previous City Commission meeting. Some citizens debat- ed whether city leaders should approve plans for an open-air shopping center in south Win- ter Garden.

Since the previous commis- sion meeting, each elected official had submitted three possible poll questions to be considered last Thursday. Mayor Jack Quesinberry, however, suggested the poll should offer only a simple "yes" or "no" choice on the Sembler Company's current plans for a 1.1 million-square- foot shopping center on the Fowler property. Nichols argued that a "yes" or "no" answer would not be sufficient since many resi- dents dislike Sembler's designs but are not completely opposed to having a mall. "Yes or no is not a good enough opportunity to tell us what they want," she said. Reynolds agreed with the mayor that the commission must decide whether to allow a development that would be larger than what is presently allowed on that property. "Right now the issue is whether Sembler will be able to build as they last presented the plan," Quesinberry said. "Either we want it or we don't. They've cut it so much already." SSembler attorney Rebecca Furman urged the commis- sioners to have a decision on three mall-related ordinances set for public hearings at the Aug. 25 meeting and warned that further delays could cost the city $800,000 in state funds toward work on Daniels Road. She also expressed con- cern that the wording of any poll questions could be mis- leading. "Sembler, nor any other developer, would develop a 40-acre mall [on the Fowler property], so it would be mis- leading to present that as a choice," Furman said. A member of the Fowler family confirmed that the pub- lic is not being asked to fur- theralter the mall's site plan. "The question is whether they approve of the plans the way they are, not what they think it should be," said Hal Bekemeyer. "We [the Fowler family] know what we want with our property."

The ballots could be mailed to voters in three weeks at the earliest. An in-depth presentation will be held by Bollhoefer at the July 28 commission meet- ing on the findings of his staff's study of the Sembler site plan and its potential impact on the community. In the final minutes of last Thursday's meeting, Reynolds sought to change the city's advertising policy on dispos- able property. Nichols second- ed Reynolds' motion to increase advertising for the sale of the Garden Theatre on Plant Street. The motion caused unfavor- able reactions from the other three commissioners and many citizens in the audience. The Garden Theatre is cur- rently under renovations and was purchased by the city with the intent of donating it to the Winter Garden Heritage Foundation. "If your intention is to donate to the Heritage Foun- dation, then there's no pur- pose to advertise further," Bollhoefer said. Loud applause followed the city manager's statement. Graham reiterated that the theater was bought for histori- cal purposes and said he would not support Reynolds' motion if it applied to the the- ater. The commissioners voted 4- 1 (with Dixon in opposition) to increasing the advertising required for the disposal of real property within the Com- munity Redevelopment Agency area, with the excep- tion of the Garden Theatre. In other business, the elect- ed officials: approved the first reading of a proposed ordinance that would prohibit sexual offend- ers and predators from living any closer than 2,500 feet from any school, day care center, park, playground, school bus stop or anywhere children regularly gather.

S4A The West Orange Times Thursday, July 21, 2005 Opinion Editor: Recently I was invited to Gotha to tour Nehrling's Palm Cottage Gardens, and it was very exciting to see first-hand 'the fantastic potential for restoration of this historic site. Despite the first impression of overwhelming vegetation, what lies beneath the canopy of vines is the intact structure of magnificent trees and shrubs' that have survived over a century of storms and neglect. Towering live oaks are famil- iar to everyone in Florida but there are also the largest Eastern red cedars I have ever seen, a rare mature Firmiana (Parasol tree), spectacular bamboos and countless botanical treasures wait- ing to be revealed. Saving this garden will spot- light environmental and cultural values in south- eastern Orange County and will effortlessly enhance your political reputations. It would be unthinkable to let. Palm Cottage fall to anonymous suburban development. Cen- tral Florida, and the greater Orlando area in par- ticular, has very few structures or places of this age and significance. Henry Nehrling was a con- sultant to Thomas Edison and a correspondent of Luther Burbank, America's most famous "plant wizard," who did most of his work in California. The Burbank house and gardens have been pre- served by Sonoma County and the city park sys- tem in Santa Rosa, Calif., and the potential resemblance between the two sites is uncanny. Orlando's most spectacular park, Leu Gardens, would not exist in its current form without the pioneering horticultural work of Henry Nehrling. Though the amount of cash that the Nehrling Society is trying to raise seems large for a small society, it is negligible when compared to the parks and recreation budget of the Orlando met- ropolitan area. As a landscape architect and hor- ticulturist, I can see how the garden could be sus- tainably and economically revived; as a botanist and ecologist, I would view the destruction of the garden in the same light as the demolition of a unique library full of first editions. I hope the preservation and rehabilitation of Palm Cottage Gardens will become a priority for Orange County. The coastal cities of Florida have all invested heavily in preserving their cul- tural histories and creating a sense of place - why not Orlando? Nehrling's garden should be a crown jewel in Orange County's treasury. If the queen's jewels were tarnished from lack of atten-, tion, would they be melted down and sold in pieces? Probably not. Palm Cottage Gardens is similarly unique: no amount of money can buy a century of growing time. For Orange County, Gotha and Windermere, value of these six acres is far beyond their real estate price. As director of the arboretum at the University of Central Flori- da, I have pledged my partnership in the garden's restoration. (The UCF Arboretum sustained heavy damage from last year's storms, so I am working with similar challenges.) I urge you to assist the Nehrling Society in the purchase of the property and the establishment of an operational budget to restore and maintain this irreplaceable gem.

Additionally. the "dow n-sized" \Winter Gar- den Village is still nearly 60 percent larger than Winter Park village And Winter Garden residents are guaranteed no implementation of the infrastruc- tute necessary to handle the traffic and crime that will be generated by such a large commercial interest in Rocky IV).

I guess the best way to discount the sci-fi genre is that there are no boundaries to what you can.do with a computer! The great thing about going to a movie is the ,anticipation! You don't know what to expect the first time you see any movie. When you see a really good movie, your curiosity has been satisfied. When it's a bad movie, your expectations were not met. What shouldn't you expect from a computer? What can't the creator make happen, and why would you be astonished at, well, anym'rlthin? Certainly most of, if not all, Cyberr boundaries" that existed in the '70s have been eliminated. Or, at least, continue to be improved. Groundbreaking in 1977; greedy in 2005. And don't think for a second that there's an end in sight. When.George Lucas is gone, one of his co-creators will just continue on. When they announce these movies as "the final prequel," it's simply great mar- keting. It's like Barbra Streisand and the three or four retirement concerts she's done. And why would they stop "creating" the films? They already know that they can make money without a quality product. Matt Anderson Ocoee resident comments )or's' story the development company wanted to do this was to have a County Road 535 entrance, which is why they are, building the road behind Mr. Kitchens. The vote at that time was overwhelm- ingly in favor of this plan (affecting five or six homes) vs. affecting the entire neighborhood with the increased traffic of 126 more-homes. I don't recall the exact vote but the entire community had a chance to vote and there were only five or six in favor of connecting the communities.

REAL ESTATE with Libby Tomyn Central Florida Native IN THE GOOD OLD SUMMER TIME Summertime is the real estate prime time, when new "for sale" signs start popping up at the curbside in every neighborhood. Sellers who started making repairs and repainting their homes several months ago are now listing freshly decorated, ready- to-show properties. Families with children are eager to buy now so they can move during summer vacation, before the new school year begins. The price and condition of a prop- erty are the two most important fac- tors in any market. Buyers and sellers will benefit by obtaining comparative sales information from experienced local real estate agents, or paying for a professional home appraisal, which provides an objective opinion of the real market value. What can we expect of this year's summer market? Competition will be even higher than at other times of the year for the most desirable proper- ties. Multiple offers are common in many areas, so as long as the proper- ty is in good condition, sellers can be assured of success. Homebuyers who are pre-approved for a mortgage loan will be in a better position to make a timely offer on the right home. The housing market usually slows down in late summer and then picks up again in the fall. Now is definitely the time to act! 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.

However, because of recent rains, the field was not playable, and the tournament was moved to Sorenson Baseball Complex in Ocoee. Local Little Leagues within District 14, Winter Garden, South Lake, Dr. Phillips and Windermere, all sent one team. The Ocoee Little League entered two teams to participate in the; pool-play format in which every team played each other once. After pool play was complet- ed, the top two teams with the best record, Ocoee National and- South Lake, were set to play each other for the title. Ocoee National was the No. 1 seed going into the finals with wins over Winter Garden (12-4), Dr. Phillips (17-10), Ocoee American (13-2) and South Lake (7-0) and one loss to Winder- mere (6-4).

Impressive on the mound were Denman, Sean Blackketter, Win- ter, Gore, Scarlata and Hood. South Lake completed pool play as the No. 2 seed going into the championship game with wins over Windermere, Ocoee American and Dr. Phillips and losses to Winter Garden and Ocoee National. The tournament had run longer than expected because of rainouts, forcing parents to change vacation plans. However, the championship game was also rescheduled because of rain, causing both teams to lose play- ers to vacations. The South Lake team would have been down to eight players or parents would have had to reschedule airline flights and other reservations. Ocoee National would have been down to nine players with the loss of two kids to vacation plans and one to a broken arm. Because of the situation, the Ocoee coaches agreed they did- n't want to win the title by forfeit and didn't think it was fair to the South Lake players who could stay and play. After speaking with the offi- cials from District 14, the Ocoee coaches agreed to have both teams as co-champions and let all the families start their sum- mer vacations. The Ocoee Little League thanks the city of Ocoee and the parents who helped with the con- cession stand and getting the field ready during the weekend. Evening Appointments Available OCOEE:151 W.

Ocoee High final update By Mike Armbruster Principal This will be my final update. By the time you read this, we will have taken pos- session of our brand new school. Band camp will already be happening on cam- pus, parking hangers will be on sale to seniors, teachers will be stopping in to set up their rooms, and a whirlwind of activity will be taking place. You will finally be able to come onto the campus and not have to worry about trespass- ing. It is hard to believe some 45, updates have happened during the past 49 weeks, and those things I .wrote about nearly a year ago are falling into place as I write this last update., I would be remiss if I didn't thank a few people for all of their assistance this past year in preparation. Thanks go first to George Morse, Barbara Schneider, Lisa Bliss, Melissa Kohn, Ginger Klega, Rob Shrader, Bill Chambers and Carol Smith the team of educators who officially joined me throughout this past year to prepare the road for all the great things to come. Without this team of profes- sionals, we would not have schedules for students, desks, teachers, coaches, books, a beautifully furnished media center, computers or anything else other than a shell of a building. They have been absolutely amazing in all that they have done. I want to thank all of the teachers and staff members who have stepped out in faith to join us at Ocoee High as well. We are not just opening a new high school but are also opening a new way of doing high school here in Orange County. Each member who has signed on is willing to do whatever it takes to make our vision of every student gradu- ating a reality within the walls of our building. Speaking of the building, my thanks go to Centex Con- struction, which has done a wonderful job and put to rest any fears or concerns I might have had in working on such a huge project from day one. They have done an outstand- ing job of catching up from gopher turtle delays, hurricane delays, 'steel shortages, con- crete shortages and a host of other factors outside their control to meet the deadline set and to give us a magnifi- cent structure on time. Schenkel Schultz's beauti- ful architectural plans have become a reality. The design of the school is about as close to perfect for what we are loing as we could have asked or. They, too, have been a leasure to work with throughout this project. Our range County Public schools project manager, Ron Siasten, is also to be com- nended for all his dedication n ensuring this project's suc- 'ess. . I must also send out a big thank-you to Walt Cobb, director of Westside Tech, and to all of his staff for the hospi- tality this past year. From allowing us to take over one, then two and now three porta- bles on their campus to lend- ing us furniture and equip- ment, they have been the per- fect hosts. It is hard to believe 18 years. have passed since Mr. Cobb was the first one to take a chance on me as a teacher - giving me my first and only teaching job in Orange Coun- ty. Neither of us could have imagined this future all those days ago, I am sure. It was nice to come "home" these past 12 months, and I will be forever grateful to both West- side and especially to Walt. . To Mary Anne Swickerath at The West Orange Ttimesr and to John Peery at The Apopka Chief, thank you both for allowing me the opportu- nity to connect to our commu- nity through my weekly updates. When I started these, I wondered if anybody would read them and they did. It was a great way to keep everyone informed about the progress of the school and to answer so many questions along the way. Again, thanks to both of you for the space, and to Mary Anne thanks for the gentle reminders along the way if I got too close to the deadline and. hadn't sub- mitted an update. I also want to thank my boss, Jenny Reeves, without whom this past year would have been impossible. Her assistance and support through all of the days - good and bad are some- thing many employees look for but rarely find. She has been an incredible supporter of all we are trying to do with this new school. In a system as large as ours, it would be easy to be too busy. But whether it was an e- mail at 1 a.m., a frantic call at 8 p.m. or just the natural bumps that come along the way in building this type of school, she was always patient and always kind. She always got the job done that needed to be done. We would not be opening without her behind- the-scene efforts. Many people told me the day. I was given this job I would be inheriting an auto- matic assistant. In fact, my first official day on the job Mayor Scott Vandergrift stopped by my office at WOHS and jokingly .told me he was my new assistant prin- cipal. I remember laughing a little nervously at the time. A year later, I am happy to have a new friend in my life. This past year of breakfast meetings, lunches, tours of the school, e-mails, telephone calls and drop-ins have helped to form a strong bond that will not only carry on when the school opens but will also serve our community and our students very well. I could not have imagined how special this partnership would become. Yes, Scott is indeed my unofficial assistant principal but more than that - he has become a good friend whose heart is in it for our kids and our community. Thanks go to each and everyone of you who has taken an interest in the school this year and who has already become involved in our PTSA, SAC, booster clubs or joined us as Partners in Edu- cation, donated Legos and joined our family in one way or another. We are truly on our way to becoming a communi- ty institution. SFinally and most impor- tantly I want to thank my wife, Sandi, and my daughter, Jennifer. We thought this might be an "easier" year without an open school to run. We were wrong. Late-night interviews, cottage, meetings, PTSA meetings and a host of other things along the way took time. But through it all, they supported this new adventure and they supported me. I am blessed to have them both. ,In a letter to the teachers this week, I began with four simple words: "Let the quest begin...." After a year of plan- ning, building and preparing, I say to you as well "Let the quest begin." Don't forget to join us July 30 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. to see the school. Everyone is welcome.

Pictured (1-r) are (in front) Jennifer Wat- son, Edmonde Narsisyan, Rebecca Torres, Lynn Ferguson, Anne Jones (outgoing president), (middle row) Jennifer Young, Virginia Grant, Sandra Reckell, Deanne Irwin, Martha Williams W ,,. . rd and (in back) Cindy Rosenbloom, Sue Goodwin, Debra Gris- wold, Howell Anne Edwards (president), Gayle Wirtz and Janet Thompson. The league is known for organizing fund- raising efforts to support local charitable organizations and to award scholarships to deserving high school seniors and par- ticipating in hands-on service projects. Ryan graduates Air Force basic training Air Force Airman Ryan M Bruce has graduated from basic military training at Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio. During the six weeks of training, the air- man studied the Air Force mis- sion, organization and military customs and courtesies; per- formed drill and ceremony marches; and received physical training, rifle marksmanship, field training exercises and spe- cial training in human relations. In addition, airmen who com- plete basic training earn credits toward an associate degree through the Community College of the Air Force. Ryan is the son of Greg Bruce of Lake Lotta Circle in Gotha and a 2002 graduate of Olympia High School. Davey Tewson and Gab Rivers, 2004 graduates of Olympia High School, are plan- ning a once-in-a-lifetime adven- ture as missionaries to Kyrgyzs- tan. They will be working with a staff of Kyrgyz people who are carrying the gospel to other parts of their country. More than five years ago, teams from Campus Crusade for Christ and Discovery Church made the first trip to Kyrgyzstan, officially known as the Kyrgyz Republic, in Central Asia. With a population of 4,574,100, it bor- ders China in the southeast, Kazakhstan in the north, Uzbek- istan on the west and Tajikistan in the southwest. Bishkek is the capital and Osh is one of the chief cities. Tewson and Rivera will join the local missionaries in Bishkek, Karakol and other towns with a goal of developing disciples who will continue to work with the local population. The two young men are cur- rently leaders in a youth ministry called Adrenaline. This student group meets regularly on Wednesday nights at Camp Ithiel on Hempel Avenue in Gotha. The group includes middle and high-school students from West Orange, Olympia, Gotha, Chain of Lakes and other local schools who participate in Adrenaline's modern and student-friendly worship and fellowship activi- ties. Horizon Community Church where Dave's father, Ron Tew- son, is the pastor sponsors this group. The leadership experience that the two young mean gained through their work with Adrena- line has led them to this new pur- suit and greater willingness to serve God. The duo is currently looking for community support and financial donations to achieve their goal. Each of six team members needs to raise between $7,500 and $10,000 to cover the cost of their six-month trip to Kyrgyzstan. They hope to leave in late August. To help with this missionary effort send a check payable to Davey Tewson/Kyrgyzstan, 12002 McKinnon Road, Win- dermere, FL 34786.

A Comment & Study of the Scriptures Remembering George Gano Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. -Psalm 62:5 My family just got back from a week of Smokey Mountain therapy. If you've been to the mountains during the summer (it's hard to imagine a Floridian that hasn't) you know how refreshing it can be. The mountain air, the beautiful vistas, the soothing sound of a rushing creek...there's nothing quite like it. Ever been so busy though, that you needed a vacation from your vacation? It can happen...even in the moun- tains! From the first day, I set out to make this vacation different. The kids and I headed straight down to the mountain stream and stayed there all afternoon. We caught salamanders and crawfish, built dams, and explored every nook and cranny of that creek. By nightfall I looked woefully domesticated.

You could see the locals just shake their heads in sad disbelief..."has that fool-boy lost his mind?" Maybe. I guess it all comes down to perspective. Smokey mountain retreat, or work week crisis, it's really not a matter of what you love (or hate) as much as who you love. If Christ is your center the source of your devo- tion you'll discover the aches and pains you endure along the way don't seem to hit their mark the way they once did. You'll find joy His joy in the most unlikely places. The choice is yours...walk in His rest today, or start saving now for your next stressful vacation!

The show is directed by Katrina Ploof and features an ensemble of veteran actors, who bring years of local theater experience to the production. The plot of Our Town is well known and deceptively simple - an in-depth look at life, love, marriage and death in a small town in New England at the turn of the 20th century. Wilder's cel- ebration of the simplest and most mundane aspects of daily life inspires audiences to awaken to the beauty of the ordinary a truly timeless piece of American heritage by a three-time Pulitzer Prize-winner. The play runs through July 24 at the theater at 105 S. Magnolia Ave. in downtown Orlando. Tickets can be purchased by calling 407-297-8788 or online at www.madcowtheatre.com.

Mo -ved6Acaem Study supports success of boarding school education Montverde Academy was very happy with the conclusion of a research-based study showing the positive outcomes resulting from a boarding school educa- tion. :Students who attend boarding schools find greater success than their peers do in college and in adult life, according to the new study conducted by the Art & Sci- ence Group of Baltimore, Md., on behalf of the Association of Boarding Schools. In addition, according to the study, boarding school students use their time more productively than non-boarders, advance more quickly in their careers and are more philanthropic. For the study, more than 2,700 high school students and adults at different stages in their lives were interviewed over a 16- month period abut their experi- ences in high school and adult life. The study also dispels stereo- types that persist about boarding schools. For example, boarding school students are not "sent away" but choose to enroll pri- marily because of the high quali- ty academics, and boarding schools are not homogeneous. Spaces open at FUMC Learning Center The-'First United Methodist Church Learning Center has openings in the three-day-a-week 4-year-old preschool class and in the Mothers Morning Out for children under 2. The school has been open since .1992 and uses a creative curricu- lum of hands-on experiences in art, music, storytime; Kindergym and learning time. For informa-. tion, call 407-656-9228. Im Lake Elementary 1st-grade students recently learned out honeybees and had a chance to see them up close. rry Scott, the father of Ist-grade teacher Karen Lewis, ought an example of a beehive and a display case with vound 1,000 bees to school.

Kendra Stevens won an individual award for Best Overall in the InDesign train- ing class, and Simone Dutes won an award for Best Copy- writing in the Section Editors Division. Staff members who attend- ed the seminar were Amelia Curotto, editor in chief; Stephanie Bryan; Lawrence Cruz; and Dutes. Help needy children with Back-To-School supplies S.T.A.R.S. of West Orange (Supplies to Assist our Students) is putting together backpacks of school supplies for children in need so they arrive the first day of school prepared to learn. S.T.A.R.S. also serves as a clear- inghouse for community back- to-school efforts. There are over 7,100 children in West Orange County's 22 ele- mentary schools who come from families qualifying for the free lunch program. S.T.A.R.S.' goal is to make available to those schools an adequate supply of filled backpacks to meet the needs of those children. S.T.A.R.S. is the only program in West Orange County that pro- vides the backpacks in time for children to have them for the first day of school. The supplies needed are: 1 dozen No. 2 pencils, a pencil sharpener (with cover to catch the shavings), a box of 24 Cray- ola crayons, colored pencils, two glue sticks, a pack of wide-ruled loose-leaf paper, three folders with two pockets and three prongs, a pair of Fiskars scissors, a rectangular two-inch pink eras- er and a backpack. Donations can be sent to S.T.A.R.S. of West Orange, 9600 W. Colonial Dr., Ocoee FL 34761-6900. Monetary dona- tions ate also accepted. For every $10 S.TA.R.S. receivers, they can purchase and fill a backpack for one child. UCP needs foster parents for special needs children United Cerebral Palsy of 'Cen- tral Florida is recruiting adults in Orange and Osceola counties to provide foster care for children with all types of disabilities and developmental delays as part of its new Special Kids Foster Care Program. "Children with disabilities and delays are particularly likely to be victims of neglect and abuse and to need foster care," said Ilene Wilkins, UCP's president and CEO. "Approximately 80 percent of kids in foster care have special needs. We believe our 50 years of experience serving these children and our network of experts ad support services for families uniquely qualify us to meet the needs of these kids." According to Wilkins, the new program will help place special needs children who have been removed from their homes into caring, supportive foster or adop- tive arrangements, where they can be safe, start to- heal from their emotional scars and experi- ence the home and family they may never have had before. Foster parents must be at least 21, able to pass a background screening, have a stable source of income and complete a 10-ses- sion training class. For more information, visit UCP's Web site at www.ucpcdc.org or call Jean Wilson, UCP's director of foster care, at 407-852-7732. .;; ....--""' k ^^ **, "-'-- ."- *- a imi tl l -. .j.

Wind.- R Service projects Fifty-four students from Mrs. Bates' gifted classes at Windy Ridge in grades 2-7 initiated and carried out global service projects during the school year. Two car washes, two mowed lawns, one raffle, a lemonade stand, a 5K run, a Relay for Life and a garage sale all took place to'make the world a better place to live. More than $450 was earned or generated to go to charities, such as the American Cancer Society, the National Juvenile Diabetes Association, the Central Florida Zoo, Adopt a Mantee Fund and the American Red Cross Tsunami Relief Fund. In addition, more than 100 hours were donated to charitable activi- ties, such as assisting young authors in recording their books on tape, playing memory games with Alzheimer patients, translating for indigent patients at Shepherd's Hope, writing letters to congress- men and senators, mentoring an emotionally handicapped child and creating child-safety brochures for an inner-city daycare. Younger students in. grades 2-5 collected 16& used home phones and 31 used cell phones to keep dangerous chemicals and non- biodegradable plastics and metals out of the landfills. Cell phones were shipped to the Phone Fund, which in turn will refurbish and resell them and donate a check to the school. The home phones were donated to Health Central Park, which does not supply the patients' rooms with phones. The 54 students who participat- ed in these service projects now realize how kids in numbers can make a real difference.

FOR DETAILS, PLEASE CALL 407-656-2121 NEW Deadline for Classified Ads is Tuesday at lOam A Message from Paul McGarigal "The Real Estate Coach" As you may or may not be aware, the Real Estate market in Southwest Orlando as well as all of Orlando is at a point that has never been seen in Central Florida ever. Problem/Opportunity #1 Homes go on the market for 20%-30% more than just 12 months ago and if priced right, they sell within just a few days, usually with multiple offers resulting in the winner probably paying too much and a bunch of very frustrated buy- ers who didn't get the privi- lege of getting the house for more than the asking price. Problem/Opportunity #2 On the new home sales front, in case you're not aware, almost every builder has a lot- tery or waiting list of hundreds of people who want to pur- chase a new home at' a price that the builder dictates. To make matters worse many builders are adding ridicule lot premiums to raise their prices even more. Problem/Opportunity #3 A third problem/opportunity that most home buyers face (if they also have a home to sell) is-deciding what to do first; sell and then buy or buy and then sell? There is no right answer. The myriad of solu- tions need to be discussed and considered prior to doing any- thing. Problem/Opportunity #4 Then we have a fourth group which are all the people presently renting, most of whom are committed to one year leases that are very diffi- cult and costly to get out of. When should they even start looking to buy a home with the knowledge of the previous three problems/opportunities? Paul MacGarigal "The Real Estate Coach". As the #1 real estate agent in Southwest Orlando With more than 25 years experi- ence, I have personally helped over 1,500 families buy or sell their homes. I have a fiducia- ry responsibili- ty to all of my clients to rep- Paul McGarigal "The Real Estate Coach" resent them with their best interest in mind at all times. A Myriad of Real Estate Issues The issues of mortgage financ- ing, property appraisal, home inspection, final walk through, legal contracting, the final closing and all other unforseen Issues are the things I believe with my 25 years of experi- ence that I can bring to you when you're ready to buy or sell your next home. 100 plus Examples I personally have over 100 real estate related examples of peo- ple I know who all have said..."I should have" or "I could have" when it comes to real estate and most everyone else talk to as their own story too. Yet, I have never met any- one; including myself that ever say I'm sorry for what I did with regard to buying real estate. Do you feel helpless and in the dark? I've met and talked with a countless number of people who feel totally helpless and in the dark when it comes to who's man- aging and where is or how is my money being invested. Usually, it's in the stock market. Through many years of personal investigation, I have discovered a proven way to purchase investment real estate through your IRA or 401-K. If you'd like to learn how it works, I'd be happy to share all I know with you to see if it makes sense in your case. All of the best Athletes in the world have Coaches So why shouldn't you have a "Real Estate Coach" on your side? Negotiating on behalf of the buyer or the seller is an art & a science. I believe I can use my 25 years of buying and selling experience to help you in any real estate situation that I've described in this arti- cle...All you have to do is ask for my help. Take advantage of my knowledge and experience As you may have seen in my previous ads, I offer a free, no obligation one hour coaching or consultation session for both of us to discover how and if I can help you with any of your real estate needs. My cell phone number is 407-761- 1428 and my office phone number is 407-345-1133. "The Real Estate Coach" is on the Web.

I have four web sites including: PaulMcGarigal.com Realtors-Orlando.com OrlandoHomeRentals.com RentNowBuyLater.com More than a Pretty Picture Usually it takes a pretty pic- ture of a house to get a buyer to call a Realtor. If you've ever done this, you're proba- bly tired of hearing the same answer...that the one in the picture is sold but they can help you find something else. If you want pretty pictures of houses, then this particular ad you've just read may not be for you.
