Commission to set adult business regulations


MARTIN STEELE
Times Correspondent

Sumter County commission-
ers on Tuesday set public
hearings for next week and
early February to consider
extending a 90-day moratori-
um on accepting applications
for any new adult-themed,
sexually explicit businesses in
the county.
County Attorney Randall
Thornton presented the board


with a draft of a revised mora-
torium ordinance and asked
them to set the hearings.
They are scheduled for 6:05
p.m. Jan. 25, and Feb. 8.
The current moratorium
was adopted late last year to
give the board time to develop
regulations for such business-
es. That came after the open-
ing late last summer of the
Xmart Super Center in the I-
75/S.R. 44-interchange area.
At the time, Thornton
advised commissioners that


The public hearings to consider extending the
moratorium on adult businesses are scheduled
for 6:05 p.m. Jan. 25, and Feb. 8.


"free speech" issues prevent-
ed the county from barring
such business, but that they
could be regulated and
restricted by zoning.
On Tuesday, Thornton said
that the draft he is proposing
for the extension contains lan-


guage suggested by a consult-
ant the commission recently
agreed to hire.
The board last month decid-
ed to hire Illinois consultant
Eric Kelley as an "expert wit-
ness" to help develop a legally
defensible basis for specific


regulations for the "adult"-
themed businesses.
In addition to the moratori-
um hearings, the board last
week scheduled a workshop
to be held at the end of its reg-
ular business session on Feb.
8. Kelley is to discuss the issue
with commissioners at that
session.
Tuesday, there was some
since of urgency by the com-
mission, as Thornton advised
that the current moratorium
would expire Jan. 23.


Because of the require-
ments for legal advertisement
of the hearings, Jan. 25 was
the earliest time that the
extension could be consid-
ered, he said.
County Development
Services Director Robbie
Rogers assured the board
that, during the interim, there
would not likely be any timely
applications for zoning
approval due to the processes
that are involved.

For the fifth year, Mount

New 4-H


club starts

AMANDA MIMS
Times Correspondent

The Sumter County 4-H
Shooting Sports had its first
meeting on Tuesday evening.
Club leader and instructor
William "Red" Foster said
that this is a program that's
taken a long time to start, and
-he's glad they're finally get-
ting it up and running.
He decided to start the club
because of the interest of his
15-year-old daughter Tyler,
who also belongs to 4-H clubs
where she shows horses, cat-
tle, and chickens, and about
15 other children in the coun-
ty.

Veterans with severe serv-
ice-connected disabilities may
receive compensation at a basic
rate as high as $6,576 per month.
Various special monthly com-
pensation rates apply when a
veteran experiences loss or loss
of use of one or more limbs;
loses one or more of the senses
of sight, hearing or speech; or
experiences loss of a reproduc-
tive organ or its use, or loss of
breast tissue by a female veter-

Shooting Sports club is just
about like any other 4-H club.
So far, the Sumter club hasn't
decided to charge any fees
for membership and any
child old enough to join 4-H

Where a veteran has more
than one disability, the per-
centages are not simply added
together to produce a new rat-
ing. Instead, a formula
described in federal regula-
tions calculates the overall
rating.
A veteran may be rated at
zero percent, meaning there is
evidence of the service-con-
nected condition, but does not
impair the veteran. An exam-
ple is a minor scar. This zero
percent rating, though not
compensable, can be benefi-
cial, since it may raise the vet-
eran's priority in other VA pro-
grams such as health care eli-
gibility. In addition, it may be
reviewed for a higher rating if
the condition worsens.
A veteran may have a
number of disabilities individ-
ually evaluated as 0 percent,
which produce 10 percent

Thought with deputies during a
traffic stop in Lake

Mark Adams, 41, was arrest-
ed on two counts of battery on a
law enforcement officer, two
*ounts of depriving an officer
of means of protection, resist-
ing arrest with violence, resist-
'ing arrest without violence, giv-


ing a false name to a law
enforcement officer and pos-
session of methamphetamines.
Adams was arrested about
9:30 p.m.when deputies
stopped a Dodge station wagon
near the intersection of C.R.
470 and C.R. 426 for an inoper-
ative tag light, according to
sheriff's Lt. Bobby Caruthers.
Adams, a passenger in the
vehicle, became nervous dur-
ing the stop and deputies
reported smelling alcohol near
him, Caruthers said. The
deputies found a bottle of beer


near Adams' foot inside the car.
When asked his name,
Adams gave a false name,
Caruthers said.
Officers found, a wallet
inside the vehicle correctly
identifying Adams and contain-
ing a clear plastic container
with what appeared to be
methamphetamines, Caruthers
said.
When deputies confronted
Adams about giving them a
false name, he attempted to
run from the officers,
Caruthers said.


Convenience store robbed


BOB REICHMAN
Editor

Sumter sheriff's deputies
are attempting to find three
men who are believed to have
robbed Bob's Zippy Mart, on
.R. 44 east ofWildwood, early
Monday morning.
, The suspects are being
bought for breaking into the
,store about 12:35 a.m. by
smashing in the front door
with a four-foot yellow pole


and then removing a safe from
behind the counter, according
to Sumter sheriff's Lt Bobby
Caruthers.
When deputies viewed the
video surveillance camera,
they saw three men, all about
6 feet tall, weighing about 200
pounds, enter the store and
drag the safe outside,
Caruthers said.
The first suspect shown on
the video was wearing black
pants and a black sweatshirt,


with his face covered with a
hood, according to the
deputy's report.
The men fled in an
unknown vehicle, Caruthers
said.
An undisclosed amount of
money was inside the safe.
Persoris with information
about the identity of the sus-
pects can contact the Sumter
County Sheriff's Detective
Bureau at 793-0222.


. A scuffle started and Adams
grabbed a deputy's firearm and
wouldn't let go, he said. "The
officer had to physically
remove it from him."
Adams then reportedly took
the other deputy's communica-
tions radio.
The deputies finally sub-
dued Adams and he was taken
to South Lake Regional
Hospital and then returned to
the Sumter County Detention
Center.
Adams was placed in the jail
with bond set at $23,000.

Changes in
SECO districts
It is that time of year again when the
'members of Sumter Electric Co-op
'will be electing directors for the com-
ing years.
Some confusion exists regarding
::the director of District 3, which was
'represented by Bud Hodges for many,
many years, until he was defeated in
:District 3 by a member candidate
:from The Villages.
Subsequently, District 3 was split
and the southern part was transferred
to District 2, which has been repre-
[sented by Dillard Boyatt many years.
Boyatt is seeking re-election on Feb. 3
,and is being challenged by Hodges.
If Hodges should defeat Boyatt, the
members of District 2 would lose their.
,director and Hodges would regain'
:only 20 percent of the members he
lost because of re-districting.
A majority of members in District 2
:would like to keep Boyatt as our direc-
tor.

Salvation Army grows with local support


BOB REmiCHMAN
Editor

Last year, The Salvation Army came
to Sumter County full-time and it's
making a difference for Sumter's
needy residents.
During the holiday season, because
of a strong presence in the communi-
ty, the agency was able to provide
assistance that wasn't possible before
the organization took up residence
last September in a storefront in the
South Sumter Shopping Plaza in
Bushnell.
The Salvation Army was able to pro-
vide holiday assistance in the form of
food, clothing, toys and personal care
items to 166 families that represented
590 people, according to Bill Stewart,
administrator for The Salvation Army
Sumter County Service Center in
Bushnell. During the holiday season,
emergency assistance in the form of
food, utilities, rent and medications
continued to be provided and 31 fami-
lies were assisted.
Stewart said $14,034 was collected
at the red kettles and $2,564 was col-
lected by volunteers.
"If it had not been for the volun-
teers from the: NJROTC from South
Sumter High (hlio volunteered for a
total of four -full Saturdays), Sumter
Oaks RV Park (The Escapees),
Wildwood Kiwanis Club and Key
Club. Al Ts Pals (a team led by Al
Svoboda), Bushnell Kiwanis Club and
Key Club. and Big Booty the clown -
we would not have collected the funds
we needed. Funds collected are used
to meet the holiday needs as well as
the ongoing emergency assistance
program."
To boost their efforts, Stewart said
The Salvation Army is planning severe
al local events this year.
"We were overwhelmed by the sup-
port and generosity of the people of
Sumter County, said Stewart "Without
the volunteers who gave generously of
their expertise, time and labor, and
the donations we received we would
not have been able to serve the num-
ber of families and individuals who
needed help during the holiday sea-
son:


"We received donations in the form
of cash and material goods such as
clothing, toys, food and personal care
items right through Christmas Eve.
"We continue fo be thankful to our
donors and to Wal-Mart and Winn-
Dixie who allowed us to have our red
kettles at their stores and to.
Community National Bank (in
Bushnell & Wildwood), McDonalds (in
Bushnell & Wildwood), SunTrust
Bank (in Bushnell), as well as Wal-
Mart and the Bargain Warehouse of
Bushnell for hosting our Angel Trees,"
he said. "Everyone was extremely
helpful and wanted to help those who
are' in need. The Bargain Warehouse
went so far as to donate several cases
of toys to make sure we met any last-
minute needs."
Eleanor Stewart, volunteer direc-
tor, said, "The volunteers were so car-
ing and helpful to everyone. They
were willing to do anything that would
make it possible to help our needy
families.
-"Many of the volunteers were vaca-
tioners and people who were staying
at local RV parks and some local RV
parks collected Angel Tree gifts as
well as volunteering with taking appli-
cations, distributing gifts and ringing
the bells.
"It was a wonderful example of how
our seasonal residents and visitors
participate with the full-time resi-
dents of our community. Eleanor also
began two new activities by bringing
visitors, music and gifts to residents of
Osprey Point Nursing Center and col-
lecting donations at Buddy's Tavern
during a traditional Tavern Route.
The folks at Buddy's called several
times with donations of cash, food,
toys and personal care items. Visiting
with them.was a merry way to spend
part of Christmas Eve. They were just
so generous," Eleanor added. Ninety-
seven volunteers provided 267 volun-
teer hours.
"Every day, Eleanor and I are
thankful for living in Sumter County,"
Steward said: "All during the hurri-
canes and now again through the hol-
iday season, our neighbors continued
to show that they have caring hearts
and are willing to go above and

teers, and Bill Stewart, service cen4l

Warehouse on Main Street.

beyond to help those who are in need;
God has blessed us in so many wayo
and we are thankful for the privilege
to share His blessings with so man'
others."
The Salvation Army plans toQ
increase it programs and community
outreach. A women's program (HomO
League), Bible study and worship
services are expected to begin soon.
Those who are interested in serving
as volunteers or making a donatio"i
may contact Bill Stewart at Tho

The Florida Fish and Wildlife
Conservation Commission's (FWC)
Chinsegut Wildlife and
Environmental Area and Nature
Center (CWEA) is recruiting citizens
for its next volunteer training class.
The Volunteer training will run on
Wednesday from 9 a.m. to, noon,
beginning Jan. 26 and running
through April 6 at the Nature Center.
Volunteers are needed to assist in
the growing multitude of activities at
Chinsegut "We are finding a greater
need for volunteer involvement
since we plan on having open hours
to the publicon a regular basis start-
ing in February" said Kristin Wood,
Natuie Center Director. "We had a
crowd of over 1,200 visitors for our
Pioneer Day celebration in
November,' which broke all records
of attendance of any event in the
past"
In addition to assisting with trail
maintenance, exotic invasive plant
control and general grounds man-
agement, the range in volunteer
opportunities at CWEA also
includes: office management, inter-


pretation and conservation educa-
tion. The FWC is also looking for a
volunteer interested in archiving
the history of Chinsegut and there is
always a need for volunteers to con-
tribute photographs of events and
wildlife at the center.
Chinsegut is one of the few areas
managed by the commission that has
a commitment to conducting educa-
tional programs. It is currently open
to the public only when educational
programs are offered, or by appoint-
ment only. This will change the first
of February when the area will be
open to the public on Friday and
Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., with-
out the need of calling for an
appointment. Visitors will be
pleased to find over four miles of
hiking trails, a short boardwalk, a
new bird blind on May's Prairie, and
2 new interpretive signs on the Big
Pine Tract. Additional. trails for
birding, botanizing or hiking will be
opening soon.
Ms. Wood has always involved
many volunteers in the educational
activities and festivals that occur at


Chinsegut, but the FWC is continu-
ing to expand its volunteer initiativO
at CWEA. "Involving volunteers oil
our Wildlife .and Environmental
Areas is a way of partnering with thd
public to help us become more effi-
cient at addressing our management
goals"says Geoff Brown, Community
Partnerships Coordinator of FWC's
Office of Recreation Services. "The
added bonus is that volunteerism
also helps us develop an involved
local constituency that understands
the importance of wildlife and habiP
tat management"
Topics included in this year's vol-
unteer training include geomorphol-
ogy of the area, the ecology and
tracking of mammals, herpetology;
birding, natural plant communities
of Chinsegut, the cultural history of
Chinsegut, fire management and ori-
enteering.
Anyone interested in becoming a
volunteer or to learn more about the .
training program at Chinsegut, con-
tact Kristin Wood at

"How do I decide which funeral
home to call when the time comes?"

Aside from the requirement that all funeral homes be
licensed by the state, some basic questions you might ask
when selecting a funeral home include: Are they flexible
enough to handle your specific needs? Are decisions made
locally or from an out-of-town corporate office? Are they
ull. service? Do they sub-contract services such as
cremation or do they provide these options on-site?
Everyone has different priorities and questions about
funeral pre-planning. We invite your questions and we
will respect your priorities. Please call us for a no cost, no
obligation, no pressure appointment to get the facts on
how you can benefit from funeral pre-planning.

Teachers involved in South Sumter High School Karen Cloud's
psychology volunteer group were honored by the students
recently. The teachers were treated to a special luncheon.
Some of the teachers and students are shown here. The teach-
ers open their classroom and allow the psychology students
to teach their students. They are: Jean Spaude, Kathy Hairston,
Kortni Strickland, Lacey Richey, Heather Varnum, Carol Keller
and Polly Tipton.


South Sumter High School
Psychology club members
hosted a luncheon this week
to say "thank you" to those
individuals who have
allowed them to volunteer
each week as part of their
psychology grade.
For the past semester, stu-
dents in Karen Cloud's psy-
chology class could be found
every Wednesday working in
one of the elementary
schools, in a special educa-
tion class at the high school
or at Osprey Point Nursing
Home.
The students help in a
variety of ways, -reading to
students, tutoring in math
and reading or just lending
that extra support to say "I
care."
The students wanted to
thank those teachers and
individuals who worked with
them in preparing their port-
folios for their final psychol-
ogy grade and becoming so
important as a role model in
their lives.
So, this past Thursday,
while teachers in Sumter
County had a workday and
the students were still out of
school for winter break, the
club held, a luncheon for
these special mentors at the
high school cafeteria.
"It is our way to say thank
you for the extra work they
do each week having a stu-
dent in their classroom or
workplace and to let them
know just how much we
appreciate them," state psy-
chology member, Magan
Oswald.

recent Psychology
Today article called 'A

detailed the ludicrous things
parents do to take the bumps
out of life for their
children.
Thinking .that
what they're doing
is good parenting,
but in reality they're
producing young
adults who don't
know how to solve
their own problems. '
It used the term

beloveds stub their toes and
need Mommy to make it all bet-

Even before my daughter
moved away I knew I had."con-
trol issues" with her, but they
magnified, loomed large and
got right up in my face, when
she left home to be on her own.
("On her own" being the key
phrase here.)
I had always hovered nearby
to help her through any and all
crises, real or imagined, and
her being out of the reach ofmy
clutches made my helpfulness
more challenging, but not
impossible. Where there's a
will, there's a way.
So, my child, who is old
enough to drive, vote, drink,
marry and all that other grown-
up stuff is off doing grown-up
things, trying to be a full-

NCY
NEDY


When she was job
hunting I would
search the online
want ads for her and
even made an
appointment with
an employment
counselor for her.
I've driven the 40
miles to her bank's
nearest branch
office to make a
deposit. One time
the bank lady said,
"Don't do it, Mom."
How could she
know? The list of my


fruitcakery goes on ... and on
,and on and on.
I've gotten better, but not
much. If my daughter calls and
sounds upbeat, then I'm OK
But when life starts getting a
bit tough, I'm on my way to the
post office with a care package
of toilet paper and microwave
popcorn or telling her what I
think she should do. As long as
I can text message or talk to
her several times a day, I can
breathe and if by chance she
actually does something I think
she should do, then I may even
relax.
However, with my hyper-vigi-
lance and attempts at micro-
managing her life, she can't
breathe. Thanks (or no thanks)
to cell phones, my always being
right there isn't good for either
one of us. In trying to lead her
toward independence, I'm
doing the opposite making
her even more dependent
According to the Psychology
Today article, before cell
phones, these 24/7 parent-child
"eternal umbilicus" lifelines,
came along, kids would grow
up "internalizing an image of
Mom and Dad and the values
and advice they imparted,"
calling upon that when prob-
lems arose. ("What would Mom
do?") Now they just press a but-
ton and call Mom, who's stand-
ing by breathlessly, awaiting


the call. Or in my case, I call
first
I've been seriously wrestling
with this for a while now, know-
ing that my every first instinct
to rush in with advice and cash
and goodies isn't helping, but
harming. I liken it to carrying
around a 5-year-old, not letting
her learn to walk. How .pathet-
ic is that? Even more pathetic
is believing I can care for my
adult daughter better than God
can.
Last month she was without
her cell phone for a few weeks
- and no Internet either.
Without my regular input I
imagined' her destitute and
covered with boils, beaten up
in an alley, begging for soup
from rich socialite ladies. Or
she was in a hospital with
amnesia, or depressed and
unable to get out of bed. (Of
course, she was fine.)
The last time she was home,
we talked about struggle she
told me that it was necessary,
even good. The Bible says we
can triumph in troubles and
rejoice in suffering "knowing-
that pressure and affliction
and hardship produce patient'
and unswerving endurance.",
And endurance develops matu-,
rity of character and character'
produces hope (Romans 5:3-5).
That's ultimately what I want'
for her anyway. Still.. .at the air-;
port, I gave it one final shot.
Before saying good-bye I said,
"What if I make a list of every-,
thing I think you should do
with your life and then you can'
do it and then I'll be happy for
the rest of my life and leave you-
alone?"
She said no.
Good for her. Oh, may God be
merciful to us both!

The Nobleton Men's Club
held its annual chili supper
on Saturday, Jan. 8, at the
Nobleton Community Center
to raise money for local chil-
dren's groups.
More than 75 people, prima-
rily residents of Bushnell,
Istachatta and Nobleton,
attended the event. Club
member Richard Merchant,
who has cooked the club's
chili for the past five years,
once again prepared his local-
ly famous chili.
Wives and friends of the
men's club baked an assort-


I


ment of desserts to comple-
ment the meal. Some 15 mem-
bers of the club helped serve.
"The money raised by our
annual chili supper helps
support such groups as the
Boys and Girls Club and the
boy Scouts," club president
John Brink said.
The club was founded in the
late 1970s and still boasts a
charter member, Buck Sharp.
Sharp, who was among the
servers at the Jan. 8 event,
commented, "We always have
a good turnout for this event."

locally famous chili.

Fair Association gains new representative


AMANDA MIMS
Times Correspondent

Barbara Kane has worked
with the Sumter County Fair
for many years but about a
month ago, she took on the
position of fair representa-
tive. As a part-time rep. and
full-time accountant, so far
she's been keeping busy try-
ing to find ways to spend wiser
and reorganize so she can
make the fair better for every-
one.
This year her main goal for
the fair is to improve it in gen-
eral, particularly where
entertainment is concerned.
With no budget increase for
this year's fair, that will be a


challenging task She's had
some trouble finding enter-
tainment that will fit into the
fair's budget, but she hasn't
given up. "I'm trying to get a
benefit show with a good
name behind it," she said.
With all of the bad weather
and hurricanes this year, she
said that she hopes everybody
can come to the fair and relax
and have a good time.
Kane said that the biggest
development for the associa-
tion this year is the new agri-
cultural building, which will
contain the fair office where
she'll work The project is
expected to be completed in
February. She said with this
building, hopefully more peo-
ple will utilize the fairgrounds


PAGE 10, SUMMER COUNTY (FL) TIMES, THURSDAY, JANUARY 20, 2005


and hopefully there will be
more use of the. Facilities by
community and youth organi-
zations like 4-H. "We're all for
the community," she said.
She also has to manage the
other activities that go on
throughout the year, such as
the farmers' market and
church events. FEMA has
been set up there for several
months, but they're expected
to leave at the end of January.
Kane is happy to have got-
-ten the job and is looking for-
ward to helping the fair give
to the community. "I'm really
glad I did it It's wonderful,"
,she said.
As for the rest of the year,
Kane said "you never know
what's around the corner."

Ellingsworth is


Named Volunteer


Sof the District


Just what's it like being
named Volunteer of the Year
for South Sumter Middle
School and Volunteer of the
Year for the entire county
school district?
"It was a pleasant surprise,"
according to this year's recip-
ient Elaine Ellingsworth.




I '- .





Elaine Ellingsworth

School PTO president at
South Sumter Middle, she
also substitutes in the class-
room.
Over the years,
Ellingsworth has volunteered
on projects for everything
from scouts to sports softball
and soccer.
"But right now I'm focusing
on South Sumter Middle
School PTO and band," she
pointed out. "I started volun-
teering in high school, when I
joined a service club."
She said she gets a sense of
self-satisfaction from her
efforts, "and maybe an under-
standing that everyone can


contribute in some way."
In the classroom, she simply
expects her students to "do
the best they can."
The. best moments for her
are havi-g the kids actually
remember some of the things
she's done with them in the
past through scouts or school
or whatever aspect of volun-
teering she's done.
"I see them around town
and they come up to me and
just start asking me if I
remember when this hap-
pened or that
"A lot of memories. It's
nice," she said.
She's a firm believer in car-
rying out and serving.
"I think if. you're in a posi-
tion to do for others, whether
it's volunteering time or giv-
ing in other ways, then you.
have the responsibility to fol-
low through and do it"
Ellingsworth, a native of St
Petersburg, is also clear on
her strengths and weakness-
es. ..1...
She said she's organized,
detailed and loves a chal-
lenge, which are beneficial.
But she also, "Can't say no!"
"I live in Webster with my
husband, Charlie and daugh-
ter Trish."
Her oldest daughter, Pam,
married recently and moved
to Fruitland Park
She's also learned some-
thing unexpected from volun-
teering "It's very, very habit
forming!"

It's time to buy:.
By Charles J. Kovaleski
Whether you're thinking of buying a condo, a town-
house or a single-family home, the Florida real estate
market is hot Permits for new home construction
throughout the state have skyrocketed up 60 percent
in some counties while desirable multifamily prop-
erties are being snapped up in pre-construction phas-
es.
The residential real estate market is still booming,
and it appears that Floridians across the state are
ready to buy. Are you one of them? If so, how serious
are you? If the answer is very serious, take the time to
assemble a team of real-estate professionals who can
help you attain your home-ownership goals.
Buyers often mistakenly believe all they really need
is a good real estate agent or broker to make a good
deal. But the most glitch-free deals happen when the
buyer has put together a real-estate team that
includes a real estate attorney, an appropriate lender,
an inspector, an appraiser and a surveyor.
Here's what each can offer you:
Real estate agent/broker if you're enticed by the
notion of saving money by purchasing a home without
a real estate professional, remember that real estate
is a time-consuming process. A good agent will work
about eight to ten hours behind the scenes for every
hour he or she spends with you weekends, nights and
holidays. Are you willing to put in that kind of time?
Would you know what to do?
A good agent will find the home that meets your
needs in terms of price range, areas of town you like,
number of bedrooms, etc. They will also negotiate
price and purchase terms for the home on your behalf,
prepare a contract, coordinate property inspections


Assembling your
and the closing, as well as offer referrals for other
experts.
Real estate attorney serious home buyers usually
hire legal counsel before signing a purchase contract
to help with questions such as income tax or estate tax
consequences, property taxes, zoning or special
assessments, title issues and the accuracy of the prop-
erty's recorded legal description.
Your real estate attorney works for you and their job
is to protect your interests. They will review, and if
necessary, revise the purchase contract to make sure
your issues and concerns are being addressed, includ-
ing obtaining a title search and evaluating the status
of the property's title. Your real estate attorney can
also issue your title insurance; the extra bonus here is
that if your attorney acts as the closing agent and pro-
vides your title insurance, no additional fees will be
charged to the buyer. Your attorneys will also prepare
or review the closing statement and other closing doc-
uments prior to the closing, and will answer any ques-
tions you may have relating to the title and transac-
tion, including deeds, mortgages and closing state-
ment costs and charges.
Your lender your choice of lender can make a dif-
ference worth thousands of dollars over the life of
your loan. Choosing the right mortgage takes some
research, but make sure you exhaust your resources.
Check with savings banks, commercial banks, savings
and loan institutions, mortgage bankers/mortgage
companies, mortgage brokers, and credit unions.
Work with a local lender, and ask early about your
total monthly payments, lender fees and any docu-
mentation you'll need to provide.
Your inspector the house you're considering buy-


real estate team
ing might look perfect to you, but you need an objec-
tive, third party to verify the condition of its structure
and systems. Your inspector will go over the house
with a fine-toothed comb, reporting on its plumbing,
electrical, foundation, heating and air conditioning,
the presence of termites and other pests, dry rot, and
the condition of boat docks, sea walls and pools.
Your appraiser your appraiser evaluates a home to
determine its fair market value a price range a given
property will bring on the open market, assuming nei-
ther buyer nor seller is under any extreme pressure to
buy or sell. To determine this number, the appraiser
uses comparative market analysis, interviews real
estate agents and government real estate tax person-
nel and tours the property, taking into account the
square footage, floor plan, number of rooms and
baths, upgrades, overall condition of the home and the
surrounding neighborhood.
Your surveyor obtaining an accurate survey is
always wise so that both the, buyer and seller know
and agree on exactly what is being transferred, and to
ensure that the lot lines are unobstructed by things
like fences, garages, driveways or pools. Surveyors are
usually hired by the buyer, although this is negotiable.
If the survey turns up a property boundary problem,
it's a good idea to speak with your real estate attorney.
A boundary problem might make title insurance more
expensive or even impossible to obtain, which could
affect your decision to buy, as well as your ability to
borrow money from a lender.
Together, this team can make or break your entire
home-buying experience by heading off potential
problems before they arise and making the process as
smooth as possible for you.

Swenson heads up Bushnell Wal-Mart CritterC TT


Scott Swenson has been
named the new manager of
the Wal-Mart Supercenter in
Bushnell. Swenson, who has
more than 24 years of retail
experience, began his duties
on Dec. 11.
"The chance to work here in
Bushnell is a great opportuni-
ty for me," said Swenson. "My
commitment is to work with
our associates to serve our
customers and to be the best
partner for this community
that we can be."
Swenson began his Wal-


Mart career in 2000 in the co-
manager training program in
Vero Beach. After completing
the program, he was promot-
ed to co-manager in
Casselberry. He served as
food co-manager in Titusville
and Orlando, his last position
before being named store
manager in Bushnell. Prior to
joining Wal-Mart, he was in
the retail industry for 20
years.
"We are excited to have
Scott join the team here in
Bushnell," said Wal-Mart


District Manager Guy Peshek
"He has shown strong leader-
ship skills and will be a great
asset to the store and the com-
munity."
As part of Wal-Mart's com-
mitment to enhancing the
quality of life in the communi-
ties it serves by being person-
ally involved in the communi-
ty, he plans to support local
organizations through the
company's Good Works com-
munity involvement program.
Swenson is married and has
one child.


Sumter gets emergency grant


AMANDA MIMS
Times Correspondent


Local agencies are vying for
portions of a $12,197 FEMA
grant awarded to Sumter
County.
Francine Ward, of Mid-
Florida Community Services,
said the grant is expressly not
for hurricane assistance; its
intended purpose is to help
those in emergency situations
and not for disasters.
The program was created in
1983 by Congress "to help
meet the needs of hungry and
homeless people."
A local board, comprised of
representatives from the
United Way, Red Cross,
Salvation Army, and about five
others, has been established


to make decisions about how
the funds will be distributed
and how much each agency
receives.
"We have to bring the com-
munity to the table," Ward
said. For such a board, one
formerly homeless person
must also be a member.
Only those private non-prof-
it and government agencies
'that are already in the busi-
ness of dispersing emergency
funds are eligible.
According to FEMA, this
"allows the program to keep a
low administrative overhead
of less than 3 percent of the
total allocation."
Only three agencies have
applied so far, and the appli-
cation deadline of Jan. 18 is
quickly approaching. A board
meeting is scheduled for Jan.


25, when disbursement deci-
sions should be made.
Throughout the years, the
people of Sumter County have
gotten much-needed help
through this program, Ward
said.
She cited instances when
families had lost homes due to
fire, been injured in acci-
dents, suffered from illnesses,
any many other hardships
that made financial assistance
necessary
Funds from this grant
allowed agencies to give
money to those in need for
rent, mortgage payments, util-
ity payments, and other,
expenses.
For more information or for
applications, call 796-1425 or
793-3114.


Four horses impounded


The Humane Society/SPCA
of Sumter County has recently
impounded four neglected
horses from the north end of
the county. The
owner of the horses
had fallen on hard
times and was
unable to continue
caring for them.
In cooperation
with the Sumter
County's Sheriffs
Office, the Humane *
Society/SPCA has
started the process
of rehabilitating
these beautiful LiN
creatures. .RA
All of the horses
are in bad shape.
But one young mare named
Sweetheart is fighting for her
life. She is so horrible emaci-
. ated that everyone who sees
her is stunned that she is still
alive. Sweetheart, along with
the other horses, deserves a
chance for a better life. And


we want to do everything pos-

sible to give them that chance.
For those who know the cost
involved in rehabilitating neg-
lected horses, you
know what the
H u m a n e
Society/SPCA is in
for The expense of
caring for these
horses will be a
burden the
H u m a n e
Society/SPCA will
have to bear. They
need veterinarian
care, coggins
IDA drawn, dental work,
ES hoofs trimmed or
vE repaired, and their
vaccinations. Along
with these four horses, the
Humane Society/SPCA has
another three rescued horses
in its care.
The Humane Society/SPCA
has taken more horses into its
care in the past six months
than have been taken in over


the last four years. We are
thankful to those who have
offered to foster some of these
horses. However, the financial
burden is enormous for a
small organization that runs
on public donations only.
For all the horse lovers in
Sumter County, there is some-
thing you can do to help. The
Humane Society/SPCA intro-
duced a special fund ear-
marked for horses. The
Equine Fund was started
because of the huge medical
expenses we incur when res-
cuing injured, abused, and
neglected horses. If you have
a soft spot in your heart for
horses, please donate to this
fund.
Supporting this fund is the
only way we can continue to
help horses n need. Please
send your donations to The
Humane Society/SPCA, PO.
Box 253, Bushnell, FL 33513.
Mark on your check: Equine
Fund.

Wildwood volunteers shown appreciation


Wildwood city officials hon-
ored the many and various
boards, committees, volun-
teers and sponsors at the
annual appreciation banquet
held last Thursday.
City Manager Jim Stevens
presented a "Year in Review"
to those present. Stevens
started his presentation by
saying, "we are a poor town.
Our tax revenue does not


allow us to operate all the
programs and services need-
ed in the community. Our
property tax revenue is only
about $500,000 and that does-
n't even pay for what it costs
to provide police protection.
That is where all of you who
work and volunteer your time
come in. You allow us to pro-
vide those additional needed
services.


Wildwood City Commissioner, John Johnson (left) and
Wildwood City Manager, Jim Stevens were present at the
Annual Banquet to honor boards, committees, volunteers, and
sponsors.


City Commissioner, Ronald Allen and his wife, Linda, were at
the City of Wildwood's Annual Banquet.


"The volunteers at the
library, the different sports
leagues, sponsors, and volun-
teer boards and committees
make all this possible," he
said.
Stevens went on to
announce, we have been
working to annex 42 tracts to
ad to our revenue and also
control the expanding growth
of the area. I am proud to tell
you that the owners of all 42
tracts have signed on. for
annexation. This is the most
significant thing to happen in
this town since the railroad
came in 1881. In addition
another 10 (owners of tracts of
land) have joined 'in the
annexation.
"This additional property
tax revenue should ad
approximately $500,000 to our
budget. Although our budget
will increase, we are still a
poor town and will still need
to rely on the volunteers,
boards and committees to
operate all of the many differ-'
ent programs and services we
now have".
The officials present to
honor the guests were
Stevens, Ed Wolf, mayor;
Ronald Allen, commissioner;
John M. Johnson, commis-
sioner; and Pamala Bivins,
commissioner. Each official
spoke about the various
boards, committees, volun-
teers, and sponsors, giving
thanks for all their efforts.
Recognized at the banquet
were the Public Safety
Appreciation Committee, the
Christmas Parade committee,
C.A.TS., Wildwood Historical
Association, Greenwood
Cemetery Board, and the
Wildwood Improvement
Committee/Tree Board. Also
recognized were Friends of
the Wildwood Library,
Volunteer Librarians, Parks
and Recreation Board,
Sumter County Youth Soccer
Board and coaches, Sumter

sors, Westside Recreation

OutdooCs uwi AIAMS


Early scouting for wild


W ith deer hunting sea-
son pretty much over
for the most part
except in North Florida it is
about time to start thinking
about doing a little ,
bass fishing and _
some'serious scout-
ing for the fast
approaching spring =
gobbler season. j,
This is a great -
time to get out into -
the woods and
check out what is
going on. The leaves
are still off most of
the hardwood trees
and this gives us the JAMEu
opportunity to see Outdoo
what is in the woods
before the lush
spring foliage returns.
It is also a great time to look
for the shed antlers from that
old big buck you might not
have been able get this past
season that has since shed or
will be shedding his rack in the
near future.
With the recent hurricanes
%we lived through, the woods
took a pretty hard beating and
there are a lot of trees that
have been blown down making
a real mess.
I believe that the hurricanes
had some serious effect on the
L past hunting season as far as
deer hunting was concerned
and I am afraid it may effect
the spring gobbler season to
some extent also.
All species of wild game and
a lot of non-game wildlife
depends heavily on the mast
crops or acorns and other seed
that our native habitat must
provide for their nourishment
and not any natural food is
more important to wildlife
than acorns.
Deer and turkey both really
depend big time on the abun-
dance of acorns in the fall and
Winter to help them make it
through the winter and acorns
are the major food source that


allows them to put on a needed
reserve of body fat.
Acorns are also one of the
major sources for protein deer
must have and if you don't have
a lot of acorn pro-
ducing oak trees
around there is a
strong chance there
is not. going to be
very many deer or
turkey in the area
you hunt
With so many big
oak trees that have
been blown down
along with the otherI
ravages connected
.DAMS with the hurricanes
Writer we suffered through
this past year our
acorn crop took a
hard hit in some places. We
still don't know to what extent
the overall damage was to the
habitat but it sure did not do
any good for the short term.
On the other hand, hurri-
canes occasionally hitting
Florida is a natural part of
Florida long-term ecological
makeup just as the sunshine
we enjoy is a part ofthe ecosys-
tem that God intended for
Florida to have. If \e intend to
spend our lives in Florida we
need to accept this fact.
I have just read somewhere
recently where some of the so
called hurricane experts are
predicting more and even
worse hurricanes to hit us over
the next few years. I have
absolutely no idea whatsoever
where they can come up with
the knowledge to correctly pre-
dict what will be happening
with our weather in the future
but it may pay to heed their
advice a little.
I know one thing for sure I
will have some way of hating
some electricity at my place by
the time the new hurricane
system rolls around.
Anyhow, I am going to be
doing a lot of pre-season scout-

sure sounds good.
The Boss Hog is real easy

want to practice with it in tht

ticing indoors and then exp'
the same sounds on the o
side. If you use a mouth call .
calling your gobblers in y0i
just might want to get yo0

Primos Boss Hog calls.
know the gobbler season is S
