Sheriff Grady Judd is seek-
ing residents of Polk County,
who are over the age of 18, to
apply to participate in his third
Sheriff's Advisory Council-
the current Sheriff's Advisory
Council will end their 1-year
term in April 2007. The Coun-
cil will consist of 20 members
who will serve voluntarily and


meet quarterly with Sheriff
Judd. Participants will be
required to attend an all-day
orientation session, and one
evening meeting.every quarter
thereafter.
The first two Sheriff's Advi-
sory Councils served as excel-
lent sounding boards for Sher-
iff Judd. The Councils tackled
issues ranging from the Sher-
iff's Office budget presenta-
tion to the aftermath of the


tragic murder of Deputy Sheriff
Matt Williams and his K-9 part-
ner, Diogi. Having spent time
observing the various agency
operations across the county,
the members have gained
priceless insight into the oper-
ations of the Sheriff's Office. In
turn, however, the agency has
benefited to a greater degree
as a result of their feedback
and input.

What Freedom Means To Me
:.By Trey Norris
To me, freedom means see-
ing the American Flag flying
high, having a choice of religion,
and being able to have a voice in
our government.
After interviewing David
Waugh, Vidtnam War Veteran, I
realized that soldiers from all
over the United States have
fought and died for our country
so that I can experience free-
dom and the right to fly the
American Flag. Patriotism

tively about the role the Coun-
cil has played. "The benefits of
the Council have far exceeded
my expectations. They have
served as a group of individu-
als to whom I could speak
about any topic affecting the
agency and expect solid, con-
structive feedback. They have
taken their roles seriously, and
I am appreciative of their serv-
ice. Their contributions have
resulted in great things," said


Sheriff Judd.

For just one moment, pre-
tend you're dressed in your
very best. You're inside one of
the grand concert halls of
Europe; the lights are dimmed
and excitement fills the air. The
spotlights come one and
they're focused on a baby
grand piano, center stage. A
young Italian pianist enters
from stage left and bows to the
audience, and applause breaks
the silence. He sits at the piano
and begins to play. The music
floats in the air.
You don't have to travel to
Europe when Europe has
come to Frostproof! Simply

Evening to Remember" to be
held on Saturday, Feb. 10 at 7
p.m. in the Frostproof High
School Performing Arts Center.
Direct from Europe's grand
concert halls in Norway, Swe-
den, Denmark, Austria,
Switzerland, and Belgium, Ital-
ian pianist Francesco Attesti
will speak to your heart


through his music. Annika
Kaschenz, a popular German
soprano, will add to your enjoy-
ment with her interpretation of
some of her favorite arias. In
addition, the audience will .be
treated to the voice of Frost-
proof High School graduate
Alana Trimmier, who is earning
respect in local and state opera
circles.
Francesco Attesti is truly one
of this generation's great
pianists. U.S. composer John
Corollo heard Attesti playing
the piano on the Internet and
while on vacation in Europe,
attended one of his concerts.
Upon returning home to
Hawaii, he composed three
Piano Etudes for Attesti, all of
which will be featured in
Attesti's June 2007 concert tour
to introduce his "The Eternal
Love" CD to Europe and North
America.

Armed Robbery


The Polk County Sheriff's
Office Robbery Unit is seeking
information on an Armed Rob-
bery that occurred in Frost-
proof in January 2007.
At approximately 5:40 am
on Jan. 29, 2007, a white box
style vehicle drove into the gas
pump area of the Little Dixie
convenience store, 917 South
Scenic Highway, Frostproof.
A black male exited the car
and walked into the store and
asked to purchase gas. After
pumping the gas, the suspect
walked back into the store and


picked up a candy bar. The sus-
pect placed the candy bar on
the counter and the victim
opened the store register.
While the register was
opened, the suspect reached
into the register and grabbed
money. The suspect then pro-
duced what appeared to be a
weapon, hiding it underneath
his clothing. The suspect
demanded that the victim
remove the remaining cash
from the register and give it to

Youth Crisis Shelter opens .


Youth and Family Alterna-
tives, Inc.'s (YFA) is pleased to
announce that on Jan. 8, 2007
the George W. Harris Jr. Run-
away and Youth Crisis Shelter
opened its doors to runaway,
homeless and at-risk youth
from Polk, Highlands and Hard-
ee Counties.
The new facility located at
1060 Highway 17 South in Bar-
tow, Florida was named for
long-time banker and philan-
thropist George Harris who
passed away suddenly in Janu-
ary of last year. George Harris
was an early supporter of Youth
and Family Alternatives, Inc.'s
(YFA) YFA's program and Co-
Chair of the fundraising effort
to raise $2,020,000 to build the
shelter debt-free. The new
building was designed by
Spring Engineering located in
Holiday, Florida and the lead
construction firm was Bandes
Construction Co., Inc.
YFA is a multi-faceted child
and family service organization


with programs and services in
eight counties. With the sup-
port and investment of the
communities we serve YFA has
been making a measurable
impact in the lives of Central
Florida's young people and
their families ever since our
founding in 1970.
The previous Cornerstone
shelter was in Mulberry and
opened in 1995. The facility
was originally constructed as a
church camp in the mid-1950s,
and was deemed functionally
outdated and programmatical-
ly inefficient by YFA's local
Advisory Board. George Harris
was a member of this advisory
council and it was through Cit-
rus and Chemical Bank that the
original shelter property was
purchased.
The new Harris Shelter can
serve up to 24 youth aged from
10 to 17. Some clients are
youngsters who have run away
from home. They may be flee-
ing domestic violence or


abuse, or they may have been
"locked out" by parents or
guardians and need a short-
term out of home placement
during a family crisis. Others
will come to the Harris Shelter
when they have been removed
from their caregivers by author-
ities because of abuse or neg-
lect. Statistics consistently
show substantial numbers of
Florida's children are at risk.
Our Capital Campaign Chair
Mike Stedem recently stated:
Youth and Family Alterna-
tives has repeatedly demon-
strated, that when it comes to
providing Shelter, Security,
Counseling' and Direction for
Youth no one does it better,
Period! For this reason I am
delighted to have been asked to
lead the Fund Raising effort for
the "Harris Center"!
The dedication of the new
shelter is being held on March
2 at 9:30 a.m. The public is

became more evident to me
when I attended my uncle's full
military funeral honoring his serv-
ice in the Korean and Vietnam
Wars. The flag was draped across
his casket and presented to his
wife with regards from the Presi-

makes you understand the cost of
freedom. The American Flag
equals freedom.
The choice of religion is taken

form of freedom that our country
has because of our brave men
and women in the service. In
America, everyone has an equal
vote which is the voice of our gov-
ernment. Equality equals free-
dom.
As I reflect back on my inter-
view with Mr. Waugh, I continue
to see young men and women
giving the ultimate sacrifice to
protect my freedom as they fight
terrorism abroad and at home.
When I asked Mr. Waugh if he
had any regrets about being in the
war, he answered, "No, I felt it
was my duty to serve this coun-
try". This attitude is still evident
today as our military is voluntary,
and our American Flag continues
to fly high. America equals free-
dom.

Frostproof Lady Bulldogs Softball season opens


The Frostproof Lady Bulldog
softball team picked up right
where they left off last May, win-
ning both games in Saturday's
pre-season classic at the Frost-
proof Sports Complex. The
defending 3A State Champions
showed that this season would
be another exciting one, as they
defeated Winter Haven 5-2 and
Lake Gibson 6-0.
Light rain and wind couldn't
stop the Lady Bulldogs or eighth
grader Chelle Smith had a one
hit, 6 strike out performance in
her first varsity start. Whitney
Dukes and Amanda Martinez
both drove in two runs, and the
team had an overall strong per-
formance in the field and at the
plate. In the second game,
Chelle Smith and Chasity Kincaid
combined for a 4 hit, 6 strike out
shut out. Lacy Lambeth went 2
for 4 and scored two runs, while
Amanda Martinez, Whitney
Dukes and Kati Hutto all drove in
runs.
This season the Lady Bull-
dogs had to deal with the loss of
6 starting players from last year's
state champion team, but like
the team motto says, "we don't
rebuild, we reload". While there
is a new look on the field and in
the lineup, the Lady Bulldogs
shouldn't miss a beat! Coach
Mulder is excited about the
teams' outlook and believes this
will be another great year for
Frostproof Softball. "Offensively
and defensively we are as strong,


if not stronger, then last year.
Our lineup is solid I through 9
and everybody is capable of
coming up with the big hit. The
biggest question going into this
season was our pitching, but
after Saturday's performance by
Chelle and Chasity, I have no
doubt that we are going to be as
strong as last year".
The Lady Bulldogs will once
again be looking to gain respect
as they are ranked 13th out of 18
teams in Polk County. "The girls
found out they were ranked low
in the county and got pretty
annoyed with the lack of respect
they were given, especially com-
ing off a championship season. I
told them there was only one
way to gain respect and that was
to prove it on the field. They are
definitely motivated to show
everyone that Frostproof Softball
is a power that is here to stay".
This years team members
are: Sydney Jones, Chelle Smith,
Chasity Kincaid, Lacy Lambeth,
Whitney Dukes, Aleecia Mar-
tinez, Kati Hutto, Faith Franklin,
Yahtea Benton, Amanda Mar-
tinez, Alicia Wilson, Ambriea
Hernandez and Whitney
Deloach.
The home opener is 'Tuesday,
Feb. 6, against Ft.. Meade. The
next home game will be against
district rival McKeel, on Feb. 16.
JV plays at 5:30 p.m. and Varsity
at 7:30 p.m.. Please come out
and support the Lady Bulldogs!


Frostproof News/Cindy Monk
Beginning the season with a strong at bat is Lady Bulldog
Whitney 'Daisy' Dukes. Whitney drove in two runs in the pre-
season classic held Saturday, Feb. 3.

PC College offers Free

financial aid session


Polk Community College and
the Polk County Schools will be
participating in a statewide initia-
tive that will provide Financials
Aid information and help to high
school students and their parents
who attend a free workshop
called College Goal Sunday.
The event will be held in
PCC's Student Center on the Win-
ter Haven campus on Saturday,
Feb. 24, 1- 3 p.m. A $500 scholar-
ship that can be used at any col-
lege will be given away to some-
one attending the session.
Financial aid counselors will
be assisting high school students
in 40 counties throughout the
state. "We realized our state had
to take steps to help with the
process," said David Armstrong,


Florida's Chancellor of Commu-
nity Colleges. He expects the
event will draw 2,000 high-school
students, most from low-income
families and many the first in their
families to attend college.
Millions of dollars are avail-
able in student aid, but many par-
ents are confused and discour-
aged by the forms. One of the
biggest barriers that college
bound low-income and minority
students is the eye glazing federal
form, Free Application for Federal
Student Aid, also known as
FAFSA. Students who show up
for the College Goal event at PCC
will get help filling it out.

Professional artist

displays artwork at PCC


Martha Nash,,Polk Communi-
ty College's Professional Artist in
Residence, is currently exhibit-
ing her work at the PCC Fine Arts
Gallery on the Winter Haven
campus.
The Arkansas native, who
now lives in Lake Wales, has
been an artist for 30 years. Her
contemporary sculpture, ceram-
ics and mixed media creations
will be on display through Feb.
17. The Fine Arts Gallery is open
10 a.m. to noon Monday through
Friday. Admission is free.
Martha earned a Bachelors
Degree in Art from Harding Uni-
versity, Searcy, AR. She antici-
pates starting graduate school at
the University of South Florida in
Tampa this fall. Martha moved to
Florida in 1982 and sought jobs
in the entertainment field utiliz-
ing her artistic skills. She worked
at Sea World as a scenic artist
and soon landed a position at
Walt Disney World. Her time at
Disney eventually allowed her to
realize her lifelong dream to


work as a sculptor.
Since then, she has worked
independently painting murals,
designing and building custom
furniture, as well as developing a
special sculpture series called
"Tek-No-Hiro-Glphics" which
resembles ancient Egyptian art
forms. Some of the pieces on
display at PCC are from this
series.
In 1995, Martha was named
"Artist in Residence" at PCC. She
is responsible for certain areas of
the management of the ceramics
room, special firing techniques,
the glaze-mixing room, and
teaching students how to
"throw" clay on the potter's
wheel. She also has worked with
PCC students in developing
career plans and managing
equipment in the ceramic room.
The public is invited to the
Fine Arts Gallery weekdays 10
a.m. to noon. Admission is free.
