New group selected to run Pineapple Festival


Chamber of
Commerce takes
over as festival
will celebrate its
20th year
BY RITA HART
Staff writer
JENSEN BEACH Big
changes are in store for
Jensen Beach's annual


Pineapple Festival as new
organizers plan to return
the street fair to its original
roots.
Festival-goers and
downtown Jensen Beach
merchants alike have been
growing increasingly
unhappy with the atmos-
phere of the annual
Pineapple Festival over the
past few years.
The Jensen Beach Cham-
ber of Commerce hopes to
change all that. They will


once again take the helm
in planning and organizing
the festival in its 20th year,
scheduled for Friday, Nov.
2 through Sunday, Nov. 4.
The Pineapple Festival
began in 1988 and attract-
ed 15,000 over three days
that year.'
The following year, the
Bahamian Market Place
became part of the festival,
an idea that grew out of a
Sister City relationship
with Gregory Town,


Eleuthera, Bahamas. The
market place featured
Bahamian music, arts,
food and a parade.
In subsequent years,
national acts performed at
the festival, including The
Commodores, Glenn
Miller Orchestra, Marky
Mark and Blood, Sweat
and Tears.
By 2001, however, the
Jensen Beach Chamber
could not continue the fes-
tival for financial reasons,


and the Jensen Beach Main
Street organization took
over.
In 2006, the Jensen
Beach Main Street board of
directors and the Chamber
executive director met to
consider a joint effort in
producing that year's festi-
val, but those efforts failed.
As a result, the 2006
Pineapple Festival was
produced by Jensen Beach

Soldiers rally to help WWII vet

before the next hurricane hits


BY RITA HART
Staff writer
HOBE SOUND Rena
Tulli's property contains a
huge gardenia bush filled
with blooms. It is a sign of
hope amid complete dis-
repair.
When Hurricane
Frances hit the Treasure
Coast in 2004, Mrs. Tulli, a
94-year-old Hobe Sound
woman, had an insurance
company that reimbursed
her for the storm's dam-
ages.
However, when Hurri-
cane Jeanne arrived three
weeks later, the storm
took her roof, her trees
and much more in its
path.
Mrs. Tulli said the insur-
ance company told her
this time they had paid
her once and would not
do so again.
Mrs. Tulli is a World War
II veteran who drove
trucks for the U.S. Army
during the war and
worked in construction
after her service ended.


Mrs. Tulli, who still
drives daily to visit her
sisters, has never had a
vehicle accident.
"I drive the Army way. I
give all the other drivers
space," said Mrs. Tulli.
She tried to fix some of
the damage herself. How-
ever, one of her neighbors
eventually tired of looking
at the damaged property
and called Martin County
Code Enforcement.
That office, in turn, con-
tacted Martin County
Commissioner Lee
Weberman, who called
Tony Reese, Veterans Ser-
vice Officer for the Veter-
ans Council of Martin
County.
"My neighbor did me a
favor," said Mrs. Tulli.
"God sent Tony to me. He
is my guardian angel."
What happened after
Mr. Reese met with Mrs.
Tulli, a bright and lively
woman, was a domino
effect of assistance that
poured in from many
places.
"I didn't do any more


than any other service
officer would do," said Mr.
Reese, who is now assist-
ing Mrs. Tulli in getting
veteran benefits.
"When you meet her,
you get even more drawn
in. It's hard not to want to
help," said Mr. Reese, a
21-year Navy veteran.
Mr. Reese contacted Col.
Alan Weierman of the Vic-
tory Forge Military Acade-
my in Port St. Lucie and
Col. Michael Roberts of
Special Forces Restora-
tion and Construction.
Early on Saturday, June
9, a busload of cadets
from Port St. Lucie's Victo-
ry Forge Military Acade-
my's Cadets for Vets
organization pulled up to
Mrs. Tulli's property to
begin rebuilding what
they could.
By noon, they had
already built new stairs
leading to Mrs. Tulli's
back porch and were
starting to put up screen-
ing. The porch is where

Jensen Beach man

charged with felony


Musician
accused of
organized fraud
of local
charities
BY RITA HART
Staff writer
Two separate events on
the Treasure Coast, one
scheduled in Martin
County, the other held in
Fort Pierce, were sup-
posed to benefit separate
nonprofit organizations
with stellar reputations.
In the end, however,
one nonprofit wanted no
part of the event, the
other saw no proceeds
from their event, spon-
sors were livid and a
Jensen Beach man was
charged with organized
fraud.
As of June 11, Lee
Koenig's Web site still stat-
ed the "Dollars for Col-
lars" event being organ-
ized by him would be held
on Aug. 25 at the Martin


County Fairgrounds.
Originally billed as a
fundraising event for the
Humane Society of the
Treasure Coast, the result
of a third-party agree-
ment between Mr. Koenig
and that organization,
questions began to sur-
face when the promoter
failed to deliver the adver-
tising promised to local
businesses that paid for
space in the event's pro-
gram.
"Dollars for Collars"
was first scheduled for
March 31, but was post-
poned when Phyllis Man-
tia, who owns Deb's
Grooming in Jensen
Beach and who had paid
Mr. Koenig $500 for an ad,
contacted the Martin
County Sheriff's Office.
At the same time, the
Humane Society began to
get complaints from other
business owners who had
given Mr. Koenig money
for advertising that never
appeared.

Koenig
From page Al
munity outreach director
for the Humane Society of
the Treasure Coast,
explained that when a
third-party agreement is
signed, it becomes the
responsibility of that party,


in this case Mr. Koenig, to
produce the entire event,
including obtaining spon-
sors and lining up the
entertainment.
In April, after the Sher-
iff's Office began their
investigation, Hometown
News spoke with Richard
E. Gitlen, the attorney rep-
resenting Mr. Koenig.


Mr. Gitlen said his client
planned on taking a por-
tion of the proceeds from
the event as a salary for
himself.
"He does this as a liveli-
hood, so he does take a
portion for income," he
said.
When contacted this
week, a member of Mr.


Gitlen's staff said he no
longer represents Mr.
Koenig.
On June 5, after an inves-
tigation by both the Martin
County Sheriff's Office and
the Florida Department of
Law Enforcement, Mr.
Koenig, 36, was charged
with organized fraud
involving $50,000 or more.


He was released on the
same day on $50,000 bond.
Ms. Christensen said the
Humane Society cooperat-
ed fully with both agencies
and will have no involve-
ment with Mr. Koenig's
event, even if it goes on as
scheduled.
"We sent him a letter
saying we no longer want-

ed to be involved and we
asked him to please stop
soliciting people on our
behalf," said Ms. Chris-
tensen.
According to Ms. Chris-
tensen, Mr. Koenig, who
had not returned calls by
press time, appeared sur-
prised at this directive.
"His reaction was he
couldn't understand why.
We explained we were get-
ting phone calls from peo-
ple who were very upset,"
she said.
The investigation was
turned over to FDLE
because of Mr. Koenig's
involvement in a fundrais-
ing event in another coun-
ty for the Indian River-
keeper organization.
According to its Web site,
the Indian Riverkeeper
mission is to "protect and
restore the waters of North
America's most diverse
estuary, the Indian River
Lagoon, its tributaries,
fisheries and habitats
through advocacy, enforce-
ment and citizen action."
An Aug. 5 concert at the
Sunrise Theater in Fort
Pierce, named "Rockin' for
the Riverkeeper," was to
have benefited the Indian
Riverkeeper organization.
Tickets for the show were
sold for $26.50.
In an Aug. 4 interview
with entertainment writer-
Shelley Koppel.of Home-
town News, Mr. Koenig
said, "Right now I have this

the Celebrity All-Star Band.
We've got a lot of dancing,
rock 'n roll music to get
them on their feet. It will be
high energy, with one of the
best live bands and some of
the greatest musicians."
However, only one other
S.:_-.." entertainer appeared at the
event in addition to Mr.
Koenig's band.
"He had his band, which
is a very talented group of
musicians from our area,
.- but after that a guy came
out and sang something
S..- derogatory about cowboys,
which you just don't do in
--. Fort Pierce," said Kevin
Stinnette, executive direc-
- tor of Indian Riverkeeper.
"Many people left after
the second act, because
they were offended," he
= said.
Of even greater concern
| to Mr. Stinnette was the
: -"" financial outcome of the
event. Mr. Stinnette said
Indian Riverkeeper did not
receive one cent of the pro-
... ceeds from "Rockin' for the
.-..-.: Riverkeeper."
."We had an agreement
(with Lee Koenig) for one-
S-.- half of the ticket sales.
Roughly 800 people
appeared at the event, so
n -- we expected to receive
"m about $10,600," said Mr.
n Stinnette.
"But when we asked him
about it, he told us he had
given most of the tickets
away for promotions for
the sponsorship," he said.
Mr. Stinnette said Mr.
Koenig had a contract with
the advertisers that indi-
cated a program for the
Seventh would be distributed
to 400,000 people in four
counties.
... ;"The night of the con-
Scert, we discovered he sold
advertising for a program
and people were irate that
they had not seen a pro-
gram," said Mr. Stinnette. "I
never saw a program, and I
never met anyone who saw
a program."
Mr. Stinnette said Indian
Riverkeeper had sold many
tickets to the event through
their own devices, in addi-
tion to directing people to
the Sunrise Theatre to pur-
chase tickets.
Mr. Stinnette, like Ms.
Christensen of the
Humane Society of the
Treasure Coast, is con-
cerned about the damage
this has done to the organi-
zation's reputation.
e Part "This was a wonderful
except chance for us to raise
money and hear some
good music," said Mr. Stin-
nette. "But it hurt us to put
so much energy into an
06/2007 event that brought us no
profit."

Rena Tulli of Hobe
Sound shows Michael
Roberts, Victory Forge
Boot Camp chairman of
the board, some of the
patch renovations of her
home after the hurri-
canes in 2004. Victory
Forge members, of Port
St. Lucie, have commit-
ted to provide the
manpower for the work
needed to be done to
rebuild Mrs. Tulli's
house, but they are still
seeking donations for
supplies.

Tulli
From page A1


Mrs. Tulli, who has no air
conditioning, sleeps
when it is too hot in the
house.
The property consists of
two buildings, a main
home and a guest house,
that through the years
housed Mrs. Tulli, her
four brothers and her two
sisters. Her brothers,
WWII veterans them-
selves, are gone now, but
her sisters live elsewhere
in Hobe Sound.
The guest house is
where Mrs. Tulli now
stays because the main
house is uninhabitable.
Despite the fact she
attempted her own
repairs, "They didn't like
the way I fixed the roof,"
said Mrs. Tulli with a
laugh.
A Florida resident for 60
years, Mrs. Tulli had one
child, Louis, who was
drafted into the Vietnam
War and died as a result
of the conflict.


Once Mr. Reese
assessed Mrs. Tulli's situ-
ation, it was clear she
needed much help.
She suffers from shin-
gles and has amassed
$25,000 in medical bills.
Mr. Reese is attempting
to get her insurance
through the Veteran's
Council, which will save
her about $300 per month
in premiums. She plans
on using that money to
start paying off her unre-
imbursed expenses.
Mrs. Tulli is hard of
hearing, and is looking
forward to getting hearing
aids soon.
"It's the number one
thing I want," she said.
The interior of her prop-
erty needs new kitchen
cabinets, she has no shut-
ters for her windows and
tree stumps and weeds
must be pulled. The
house has rotting fascia
and needs new windows,
siding and paint.


Offers continue to pour
in for assistance. Nicholas
Sanitation, Hobe Sound
Sherwin Williams, Ben-
jamin Plumbing, 84 Lum-
ber of Jensen Beach, Palm
City Screening and Hobe
Sound Aluminum all
donated materials.
Austin's Smoke House of
Hobe Sound even donat-
ed lunch for the cadets
and others who were dili-
gently working under the
hot sun on Mrs. Tulli's
home.
The cadets and others
will return on Saturday,
July 14 to complete their
renovations.,
In the interim, there is
much more needed in
terms of materials and
supplies to keep Mrs. Tulli
safe for the next hurri-
cane.
Organizers are asking
for donations from the
public, so Mrs. Tulli can
live in her home safely for
her remaining years.


A former Red Cross
volunteer, Mrs. Tulli has
always prided herself on
being self-sufficient.
She still wears her WWII
dog tags, because she
doesn't carry a purse
and this is her form of
identification should it
be needed.
It has been difficult for
her to accept all the help
she's been given in a short
time.
But as she walked
among the young men in
military fatigues who
were on ladders, atop her
roof and fixing her porch,
she smiled and said,
"They are my angels."
To offer donations of
money or supplies to assist
in the renovations, contact
Inez Frid, a volunteer
with the Victory Forge
Military Academy at (772)
370-4571 or Tony Reese at

WEEK IN

REVIEW

Stuart flouridation issue
to be on November ballot
The question of whether or not to fluoridate the drink-
ing water in Stuart will be settled in November, when
voters will decide the issue at the polls.
Those who have engaged in often contentious public
debates over this issue in the past few months include
fluoridation proponents, many of them dentists, who
maintain that fluoride is safe and effective in preventing
tooth decay, while opponents contend that fluoride can
cause tooth discoloration, kidney damage and even
bone cancer.
75-year old Hobe Sound felon
charged with voter fraud
Benjamin Miller's right to vote in elections should have
ended with is 1979 conviction for second-degree murder.
But Mr. Miller, 75, of the.8500 block of Comus Street in
Hobe Sound, was charged on June 2 with a felony count
of false swearing and submitting false voter registration
information, after it was discovered he voted in Martin
County in every mid-term and presidential election
between 1984 and 2000.
Mr. Miller's name was removed from the voter rolls by
the Supervisor of Elections Office in 2000, when that
office discovered his voting rights were not restored.
In 2005, the Florida Parole Commission conducted a
clemency investigation to restore Mr. Miller's civil rights.
It was only then that his voting record came to light,
leading to a Martin County Sheriff's Office investigation
that led to this month's charge.
Mr. Miller was released from the Martin County jail on
June 2, after posting $500 bail.

Jupiter Island smugglers
now facing additional charge
Rickey Thompson and Leon Brice Johnson were
already facing multiple federal charges, including first-
degree murder and conspiracy, when an additional
charge of importing heroin was added to the list on June
5.
The two men are charged in connection with the
December smuggling of immigrants from Jamaica. After
their boat crashed into rocks on Jupiter Island, the life-
less body of one of the immigrants, Nigel Warren, was
found in the water. At the time, it was reported that the
immigrants, some of whom could not swim, were
allegedly forced by gunpoint to jump off the boat.
If convicted of the new charge, the men face a manda-
tory 20-year prison sentence and a possible maximum
sentence of life in prison.

Platinurh
The platinum group met-
als comprise six closely
related metals: Platinum,
Palladium, Rhodium,
Ruthenium, Iridium and
Osmium,
Platinum (symbol PI) was
accepted as a precious
metal only after the sec-
ond half of 19th century
and has a deep luster and
a rich, white color. It is rarer
and heavier than all pre-
cious metals and consid-
ered to be more valuable
than gold.
Platinum is often used to
set the most valuable
gems to produce the
finest jewelry.
Platinum holds gem-
stones most securely,
because its strength and
neutral color enhances
the brilliance and depth
of diamonds and precious
stones. Because of Its den-
sity and weight, you can
feel the difference
between platinum and
other precious metals.
There are no karat marks
to identify platinum.
In the United States plat-
inum is usually marked: PT
or PLAT. In Europe, plat-
inum is identified by the
following marks: 950 or
PT950. Since platinum is
the,purest metal it rarely
causes an allergic reac-
tion. There is an increased
interest In platinum jewelry
both In the US and
abroad.

summer camp.
"It lets them be around


V


children their own age and
provides them with social
activities that I can't do
with them because I work.
I wouldn't be able to afford
it if I didn't have that help,"
said Ms. Bozarth of Jensen
'Beach.
When adults reminisce
about their favorite mem-
ories of childhood, spend-
ing time at camps during
the lazy days of summer
often comes to mind.


For many Martin County
children, however, those
memories will never hap-
pen because their families
are unable to afford the
cost of summer camp.
Martin County residents
have the opportunity to
give a child a summertime
memory by donating a
scholarship to send a
child to camp. The cost of
the scholarship is $70 to
send a child age five

through 12 to camp for
one week. For a teen 13- to
16-years-old, the cost is
$85 for one week.
The Martin County Parks
and Recreation Depart-
ment runs several day
camps, which began just
after Memorial Day and
will end on Aug. 17, just
before the children return
to school.
"We run full service day
camps through the Coun-
ty in Hobe Sound, Port
Salerno, Jensen Beach
and Palm City," said Laura
Haase, acting recreation
superintendent for Parks
and Recreation.
The day camps for the
younger children include
field trips twice a week for
such activities as bowling,
movies, roller-skating and
visits to the zoo and Flori-
da Oceanographic Soci-
ety.


"We also have Extreme
Teen Adventure Camp for
youth who are 13- to 16-
years old," said Ms. Haase.
The Extreme Teen
Adventure Camp offers
daily field trips to the
beach and for activities
such as golfing, air boat-
ing, treasure hunting and
community service activi-
ties.
Ms. Bozarth, for one,
knows the benefits her
girls, ages 10 and 11, enjoy
at the camp.
"They love the camp
counselors and everybody
there. It's been a great
thing, and I'm very, very
grateful for the scholar-
ships," she said.

Movie not fit to be seen

I am outraged.
A new movie was released in our local theaters last
week. The name of the movie is "Mr. Brooks." The movie
is about an addict who is addicted to killing, and has
never been caught for the killings.
While he was killing someone, a young man views it.
The young man is so excited about it that he blackmails
the killer into teaching him how to kill other people.
Through the movie, we are watching as he is teaching
the elation that one gets from murdering another indi-
vidual.
This movie was released in our local theaters. When I
talked to the director of the movie theater he stated that
this movie was for adults only, and that I would not have
anything to worry about.
We know there are bootleggers out there that are put-
ting these movies out on the street.
I feel that this movie is adding gasoline to a fire that has
already been started, not just in our community, but also
in the United States.
I do not believe that Hollywood, or whoever else,
should continue to release movies such as this over our
airways, at the movies, at home, or on the radio.,
Look at all of the murder and violence that is in society
today. I think that it is at an all time high.
I am outraged. I think we should do something about
it. If this type of movie gets in the hands of the wrong
mind, whether it be a young person, or an older adult,
this can make things worse for us, the people that have
to live in the community.
The movie ends with his daughter having picked up
the same habit of killing. His daughter goes to school
and kills someone, then goes home and kills her father.
Come on, we have to do something about it.
Again, I am outraged.

Do no harm

I, also, have not only noticed that medical workers are
overweight.
Have you noticed that they also all try to appear, so
called, "sexy"?
Be they a nurse, or a front line worker they wear either
some, or all of the corporations version of sex.
Colored, streaked, bleached and/or permed hair.
Make up. Fake nails and perfume. You know, if you want
to pollute your own body, we're not even getting into pol-
luting the earth, for your own vanity, go right ahead.
But, when it comes to perfume, fake nails, or nail pol-
ish you are now infringing on my right to my health.
If I am anywhere in the vicinity of you, and you're
wearing perfume, you are forcing me to breath in your
cancer-causing agent.
If you are touching my body or I am taking a pen from
your hand and your nails are covered, I have no way to
evaluate just how clean or dirty your nails might be.
Not to mention that you might accidentally scratch me
with your long nails, and don't you dare and try to tell me
that's never happened. The problem with fake nails is


that they do actually harbor bacteria.
Perhaps the oath is for doctors only, but shouldn't all
health care workers "do no harm"?
I ask you, is it the nature of your job that twists and per-
verts your perception of good health?
Yea, yea, yea, nurses are great, but aren't you in the job
to help people? I assume, help them remain healthy.

Reality and perception
In response to "Go with the flow," I think you should go
with the flow on Interstate 95, or the turnpike, back to
whence you came.
Of course, that would be at 80 plus m.p.h., or so, since
that is what the flow does.
I think you should have read my rant more carefully,
because it didn't sink in.
I am an American, and I gather you are not.
I have a news flash for you. The subject of snowbirds
will never be closed as long as you are an irritant in our
community.
I have no objection to tourists, as long as they are not
arrogant, rude, or self-indulgent people, and they try to
blend into the community while they are staying here.
There's an old saying: Respect the locals.
Most are hardworking middle-class people that are try-
ing to raise their families, and make it to retirement, like
you.
Obviously, you don't know the difference between per-
ception and reality.
Reality never changes. Reality dictates that if you go to
a restaurant in season, you have to wait for at least 45
minutes unless you go to a restaurant that takes reserva-
tions.
You don't have to be rich, just smart enough to figure it
out.
Floridians, and families from other states do make
good use of the roadways on Memorial Day, as well as
other holidays, because the highways aren't as crowded,
when the snowbirds are gone.
Florida residents aren't richer than most of you. If they


were, they could afford to fly private or commercial
planes instead of driving, which takes much longer, but
is still affordable for most of us.
If everyone would just lighten up, slow down a little, get
off of his or her cell phones, and pay attention to their
driving there wouldn't be any road rage.
The perception is that you have to live and act in a cer-
tain way.
The reality is, you don't

Share the road with cyclists

I am writing to rant and rave, as many avid cyclists
have before, to express my concerns regarding road
courtesy to cyclists.
First of all, for all of you who yell, "Get on the sidewalk,"
it is against the law to ride on the sidewalk.
For those (who) get away with it, that's up to any police
officer who pretends not to see them.
Secondly, when we cyclists are riding as close to the
right side of the lane as we possibly can, if you have that
open left lane, which you usually do, go into it and go
around us.
I have at times, more than I can count, been nearly hit
by cars who just can't seem to fathom getting into that
left lane.
Hello? You're not going to get anywhere faster and you
may possibly save a life.
Just think, that's all I ask.
I have lived in many places as a military spouse, and I
have never seen more reckless, careless, and dangerous
drivers as in the state of Florida.

Supporting bigotry a waste of tax money

I have to disagree that it makes any sense whatsoever
to round up and deport all illegal aliens.
You would need to demonstrate any long-term gain

There is strength in numbers

I' ve lived in Stuart for the past fifteen years. Four years
ago I placed a sizeable deposit on a villa in a new devel-
opment in Port St. Lucie being built by Sullivan Homes.
The project is called Little Turtle at River Place in Port St.
Lucie, off of St.James Road.
To date, nothing has been done, and there are 68 units
that should have been built by now. This has caused me
much concern.
During that time the builder entered into a lawsuit with
the developer of the property claiming the developer
wants more money because prices have risen drastically.
After having been given the runaround for the past four
years, and never having any of an estimated amount of
about 50 phone calls returned, I decided to ask for my


deposit back since none of the conditions of the contract
have been met.
The principal of Sullivan Homes seems to have disap-
peared.
I wrote him a return/receipt letter a month ago, and
just received the receipt the end of May.
I have gone to the office in Port St. Lucie. The tenants
next door said they have never seen him, and that police
were there looking for him as well as other couples who
wanted their deposit money returned,
I have gone to small claims court but $4,999 is the high-
est claim one can submit. My deposit is $6,750.
The one good thing that came out of that visit was that
I met a couple that were in the same predicament as me,
only they had reserved two units in Little Turtle.
I am asking that, if possible, this letter or portions


thereof, can be printed asking if anyone who has had the
same misfortune with Sullivan Homes get in touch with
me.
There's strength in numbers. This builder has victim-
ized too many people.
I have copies of my contract and the three letters Sulli-
van has sent regarding his court dates, which are con-
stantly delayed only three letters in four years.
He also threatened that if anyone contacted an attor-
ney that would be charged back the costs at the closing.
My telephone number is (772) 631-0308, and my
address is 7972 S.E. Doubletree Drive, Hobe Sound FL
33455.

Five years, and a cloud of dust


n business, there are
two important mile-
stones you look to
reach when you are
starting out. First is the
one-year anniversary.
Making it through the first
year means you had a
good idea, a good business
plan and were prepared to
face whatever obstacles
came your way. In the
United States more than
50 percent of new busi-
nesses don't make it to the
first year. The second
milestone is the five-year
anniversary. The general
line of thought is that if
you make it to year five,
odds are good for a long-
term successful business.
In the United States 50
percent of the businesses
that make it to the one-
year mark don't make it to
the five-year mark.
Starting and operating a
business is a lot of hard
work. Unless you are one
of the lucky ones who
either invent a product or
stumble into one that the
world is just waiting for, as
the percentages show, the
odds are against you.
Well, friends, I am
pleased to share with you
that Hometowpn News has
beaten the odds. This week
marks our five-year
anniversary. On June 14,
2002, a group of 22 full-
time entrepreneurs and
risk takers launched what
would become the fastest-
growing newspaper
company in the history of
independent newspapers.
A group that would be
honored and recognized '
by its peers unlike any
newspaper group before.
Evolving into a story so
incredible, so implausible,
and so unprecedented
that without first-hand
knowledge, one could

only believe that it was the
making of a Hollywood
script.
The truth is that if I was
not here watching all of
this happen around me, I
would never believe it.
What has happened here
at Hometown News just
doesn't happen. The only
place it could happen is in
the imagination and space
of a two-hour feature film.
There are a few people in
the country that have been
in this business longer
than I have, but not many.
There are even fewer that
have been involved in as '
many different projects
around the country as I
have. Point is, I know this
business. I have been in
this business for about 26
years. My family and I
relocated 20 times in 20
years, all over the U.S. My
older son Matt, graduated
high school, 12th grade,
with honors, after attend-
ing 17 different schools.
We have seen a lot. Neither
we, nor anyone I know,
have ever seen anything
like Hometown News.
I understand when I tell
our story at a speaking
engagement or an indus-
try conference and an
individual upon hearing'
this story looks at me with


that "You are so full of it,
Steve," look. If five years
ago someone had come to
me and reported the
following, I would have
given them that same look.
Started three papers with
65,000 circulation and
within the first year was
consistently giving better
results to the advertisers
than the daily newspaper,
because .of the tremen-
dous readership.
Within three years, was
publishing 19 different
newspapers and delivering
520,000 copies each week,
making it the largest-
circulated newspaper in
the state of Florida and
one of the largest in the
country.
Went from 22 full-time
and 30 part-time team
members to more than
160 full-time and approxi-
mately 225 part-time team
members in those same
three years.
In the first year of
existence was the top
award-winning newspaper
group in the country at a
national conference and
was voted as being one of
the top three community
newspapers in America by
two different national
newspaper associations.
In the FIRST year!
The only newspaper ever
to be voted as one of the
top three community
newspapers in America by
one or both of the national
associations five years in a
row, and three of those
years were for No. 1.
Has been the top award-
winning community
newspaper group in the
state for each of the five
years of its existence.

against the cost of this operation.
To round up all 12 million would like-
ly cost way more than it would ever save.
It would never pay for itself.
Empty phrases like "burden on health
care and schools" are never, ever backed
up with any real information in the let-
ters I read.
The deported "illegals" would almost
certainly come right back to the U.S. any-
way.
I personally sense bigotry in every
anti-immigrant letter I see in any publi-
cation I read.
The KKK is rumored to be growing
fast again, targeting "illegals" instead of
African Americans (reported by Reuters
and Associated Press news services).
Hate can raise some serious money.
How about leaving these poor .immi-
grants alone and letting (Immigration
and Nationalization Service) continue
their efforts?
Armchair politicians base easy solu-
tions on lack of knowledge of the prob-
lem they face.
Trying to get the government to sup-
port your own bigotry is a huge waste of
taxpayer dollars.

Bush administration
not keeping us safe

It bothers me when people say that this
incompetent administration has kept us
safe since Sept. 11.
I have to remind them that Sept. 11
happened on Bush's watch, despite
many, many warnings (that) we were on
the verge of being attacked.
If terrorists wanted to kill Americans as
they have stated, all they would have to
do is walk across the Mexican border.
But there's no need to go through the
trouble, as Bush keeps sending more
troops as targets to satisfy their lust to kill
Americans.

Bad mix for the U.S. melting pot

All U.S. citizens are a product of immi-
gration be it first, second or third genera-
tion.
However, our ancestors did not invade
America and force their language and
culture upon others.
They came to America legally, had to


have a sponsor, be in good health and
not be a burden to society.
My own grandparents came from Ire-
land and Lithuania in the 1920s legally
and worked as landscapers and house-
keepers on estates in Long Island.
Here we are in 2007 with 12, 15 or
maybe 20 million undocumented law-
breakers.
How did this happen, especially since
(Sept. 11)?
Why haven't our immigration laws
been enforced?
Two obvious answers are cheap labor
and more customers.
We should sue our government for not
enforcing the law.
All American citizens have a cultural
heritage, but there has never been a spe-
cial "dial one for German, dial two for
Italian," etc.
Why must we dial one for English?
Why is every product label now printed
in Spanish?
If these people cannot understand
English, how can they drive and follow
instructions?
The Hispanic and Latino advocates
should understand why there is growing
animosity.
We are all being forced to accept their
intrusion, their demanding of rights, the
breaking of the law, and they are not
assimilating into America.
The Hispanics are placing themselves
into a separate class giving the impres-
sion that they are higher and mightier
and better than the rest of us law-abiding
citizens.
Congress, past and present, has
allowed this illegal immigration issue to
become catastrophic.
The pandering to the Hispanic vote by
our politicians is despicable, and the rest
of Americans of all nationalities feel dis-
enfranchised.
Any member of Congress who votes to
allow this insane amnesty (should) get
booted out of office.

Hispanics upset, kids
don't speak Spanish

I hate to bust your bubble, but most
immigrants do not learn to speak the lan-
guage and stay within an area comprised
by those who speak the same language.
I've heard and read many claim how
their ancestors had to deal with a new

helped start a shutter com-
pany in Riviera Beach,
which he managed. The
company did work on
homes on the Treasure
Coast, where Mr. Heis-
senberg saw an opportuni-
ty.
"We saw a tremendous
potential up here," he said.
"We thought the best thing
would be to start a compa-
ny of our own up here."
With the help of his wife,
Jamie, Expert Shutter Ser-
vices opened its doors in
February 1988. It was just
the two of them operating
the business at the time,
doing "a lot of repair and
service work," Mr. Heis-
senberg said.
But the business did not
stay small for long.
"The company has
grown by leaps and
bounds every year," Mr.
Heissenberg said. "We set
and have achieved our
goals every year. We attrib-
ute a great deal of our suc-
cess to our employees and
their dedication to achiev-
ing a level of customer sat-
isfaction that the company
wants to see."
The company now has
42 employees, including
Mr. Heissenberg's two
sons, Michael and Christo-
pher, as well as their
fiancees and Mrs. Heis-
senberg's sister. Many of
the employees have been
with the company for 10 to
15 years.

Main Street.
On December 6, 2006,
Joan Jefferson, Florida
Main Street Coordinator
for the Department of
State's Division of Histori-
cal Resources wrote to
Martin County Commis-
sioner Doug Smith.
The letter indicated
that the group identifying
themselves as Jensen
Beach Main Street were
never designated as such
by the state.
"This is an infringe-
ment on the National
Main Street trademark,
but when advised that
they were in violation,
they ignored requests
from both Florida and
National Main Streets to
desist from using this
name," said Ms. Jefferson
in her letter.
In March, however,
Jensen Beach Main Street
changed its name to
Jensen Beach Main-
streame. Efforts to con-
tact that organization, or
its president, Rosemary
Myers; were unsuccess-
ful.
Mary Hoertz was presi-
dent of Jensen Beach
Main Street before it dis-
banded in March,
although she was not
president when the
Pineapple Festival was
organized in 2006.
At that time, Ms. Hoertz
was chairperson of the
children's area of the fes-
tival.
"I think the children's
area was a great success
last year, and obviously
the Chamber agrees,
because they asked me to
run it again this year,"
said Ms. Hoertz.
According to Ms.
Hoertz, a group is in the
process of establishing a
Jensen Beach Main Street
organization that will be
recognized by the state
and national Main Street
organizations, and she
hopes to be part of that


group..
"1 just want what's best
for the merchants," said
Ms. Hoertz, who is
employed by Mulligan's in
Jensen Beach.
According to a state-
ment released by the
Jensen Beach Chamber of
Commerce, "In March
2007, the Jensen Beach
Chamber Board of Direc-
tors voted to take the nec-
essary steps to officially
regain control of the
Pineapple Festival, a
move that delighted the
Chamber membership,
local' business owners
and residents."
Mr. Rose said the input
of the business owners
and membership had a
big impact on this deci-
sion.
"We went to the stake-
holders, the merchants
and property holders,"
said Ron Rose, executive
director of the Jensen
Beach Chamber of Com-
merce.
"It was so bad they did-
n't want the festival any
more," he said.
For this year's festival,
the Chamber of Com-
merce has invited
Eleuthera community
leaders to renew the Sis-
ter City relationship and
bring the Bahamian
theme back to the
Pineapple Festival.
Festival organizers'
plans for this year include
fireworks over the Indian
River Lagoon on opening
night, a children's beach
party, themed food ven-
dors, an arts and crafts
show, street entertainers,
a pet parade and "pineap-
ples, pineapples and
more pineapples."
The Chamber of Com-
merce is also in the
process of booking musi-
cal entertainment.
Another difference in
2007 will be the "teen
zone." This year, Doolan
Amusements, a Jensen


Beach company, will be
responsible for this area.
Mr. Rose said Doolan
Amusements had the
honor of setting up an
event for President Bush


STAT
Poor gas mileage may be due
to any number of causes, includ-
ing an engine cooling system that
is malfunctioning. This has to do
with the fact that the fuel system
supplies a "rich" fuel mixture
(more gasoline) when the engine
is cold. As the engine warms up,
a leaner mixture is sent into the
combustion chamber, resulting in
more economical engine opera-
tion. However, if the fuel system
does not know that the engine is
warmed up and continues to pro-
duce an overly rich gasoline mix-
ture, gasoline is wasted and poor
fuel economy results. In such
cases, a faulty cooling system
thermostat is signaling that the
engine is running cool, thereby
confusing the fuel system. If so,
have the thermostat replaced.
Your engine relies on the ther-
mostat to gauge the temperature,
and adjust the fuel to air mixture
accordingly. At ADVANTAGE
FORD OF STUART, located at
4000 S.E. Federal Highway, we
have the knowledge and expert-
ise to properly care for your car.
This includes replacing your ther-
mostat if needed. The savings in
gas mileage will probably end up
covering the expense of replacing
the thermostat. To schedule
maintenance call 772.781.6540.
We're a 'Blue Oval Certified" Ford
dealership. Genuine Motorcraft
parts mean that high quality is
guaranteed.
HINT: If yoi suspect a faulty ther-
mostat, take the opportunity to
.hav e entire cooling system of
your vehicle inspected.


on the White House lawn.
"If they're good enough
for the White House,
they're good enough for
Jensen Beach," said Mr.
Rose.
Admission for the festi-
val is $10 for adults, with
children 12 and under
admitted free. In celebra-
tion of the 20th year
anniversary, all 20 year-
olds with a valid ID will

"Business of the Year"
Port St. Lucie, FL -June 12, 2007. The St.
Lucie County Chamber of Commerce seeks
Business of the Year for its 23rd Annual
Business & Industry Appreciation Awards
Dinner.

in Port St. Lucie. Sponsorship opportuni-
ties are now available!
At the dinner, businesses will be recog-

Good food a forum for popular


column, lasting friendships


Hello, smart shop-
pers. June 15 is the
fifth anniversary of
Hometown News.
I've know Steve Erlanger,
publisher, Tammy Raits,
vice president/managing
editor and the amazing
Phil Galdys, vice presi-
dent/production, since
1996. We were all part of a
previous weekly paper.
When that ended,
everyone went their
separate ways, but as luck
would have it, when Steve
contacted all the original
people and columnists, we
all came back:
Because of more money?,
No way. It was because
of the camaraderie.
When Steve pulled me
away from a big-name
paper he said, "I promise
I'll make you famous, but
I'll never make you rich!"
He kept his word.
When Steve was born,
no one had ever heard of
attention deficit disorder
or attention deficit hyper-
active disorder.
I'm sure he drove his
poor mother crazy as he
went every which way but
loose.
Steve is an enigma.
His energy is endless
and he never is in one
place for very long. He's
got the power. He even has
an acronym to describe
himself, TGOA: The God of
Advertising.
Was someone else
responsible for the title or
did he name himself?
I'll never tell.
Tammy I've know since
1994 when she was an
assistant editor for a daily
paper.
When I met with her and


* f '


ARLENE BORG
Grammy Guru

told her I wanted to write a
column that teaches how
to shop smart in the
supermarket, save money
and cut the fat and choles-
terol she said, "Will you
come live with me?"
However, her publisher
said no.
But she saved my
business card and a year
later called me, and my
column was born.
Phil, Sean McCarthy,
who writes the "Compute
This" column and Pat
Snyder, head of classified
joined us at Hometown
News, and you must agree,
it's all a perfect mix.

Since Father's Day is
Sunday, here is a delicious
dessert to serve the special
guy. Enjoy and see you
next week.

NEW YORK
CHEESECAKE
This cheesecake is by
far the best you've ever
tasted. It is the true, heavy,
rich, New York.cheesecake.
Many recipes were tried
until I finally learned that
the secret to a spectacular


cheesecake is not only in
the ingredients, but also in
the method of baking.
This makes a large cake.
You will need a 9- or 10-
inch spring form pan.
Crust:
Graham cracker piecrust
mix
1/4 cup almonds, finely
chopped (optional)
Prepare graham cracker
crust according to package
directions, adding
almonds if you like. Press
into bottom of spring form
pan and bake in a 375-
degree E, preheated oven
for 10 minutes until lightly
browned. Let cool.
While the crust is
baking, prepare filling.
Filling:
2-1/2 pounds cream
cheese (five 8-ounce
packages)
3 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon each: grated
lemon and orange rind
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
extract
1-3/4 cups sugar
5 large eggs
2 egg yolks
1/4 cup heavy cream
Combine first the first
four ingredients; beat with
an electric mixer at second
speed. Add sugar gradual-
ly. Add eggs and egg yolks
one at a time, beating
lightly after each addition.
(If the speed is too high
when adding the eggs, too
much air gets into the
batter and produces a cake
of inferior consistency).
Stir in cream.
Pour into prepared pan.
Bake in a 450-degree F,


preheated oven for 10
minutes. (During baking,
.place a pan of water on the
bottom rack to prevent
cake from cracking).
Reduce heat to 300
degrees and continue
baking 1-1 1/2 hours until
almost set in center.
Turn oven off and leave
cake in for 1 hour.

Lucie County residents.
I am proud to have been
a part of this for the past
five years.
Most of the readers
know me as the writer of
the Garden Nook, but
prior to that I did a weath-
er column known as Joe's
DiscoWeather Central
Time Capsule. (Say that
three times fast!)
Again, it seems like just
yesterday when I wrote
my first column for the
paper.
Let me rewind just a bit.
As a kid, I always had an
intense interest in the
weather.
I was never satisfied to
watch the weather report
and see what it was going
to do. I wanted to know
why it was going to rain or
snow.
I started to read and
study about weather
systems, fronts and above
all, hurricanes.
To make the story a little
shorter, actually a lot
shorter, all this led me to
the creation of Joe's Disco
Weather Central (now
known as www.horhe-
townweather.net) in 1999.
Although the Web site
was a great outlet, I
wanted to share my
interest even further.
My opportunity came
when Carol, my wife, was
just starting to work for
Hometown News. She
suggested that I do
weather for the paper.
I thought about it and

eventually decided to take
the plunge.
Carol set up an appoint-
ment with Tammy Raits,
the vice president/manag-
ing editor of Hometown
News.
When we had our first
meeting, we brainstormed
and came up with the idea
of talking about past
weather events along with
current forecasts.
The main idea was to
have the weather done
from a local standpoint.
I must add that Tammy
was my inspiration. It was
her inspiration that made
the column a success.
In 2005,1 I took on a new
challenge: a gardening
column.
Since I had 27 years of
horticulture experience


under my belt, it was an
exciting transition.
I also want to thank
Steve Erlanger, publisher,
for allowing me the
opportunity to express
myself through the power
of media.
Because of the opportu-
nities that Steve and
Tammy gave me, I am
doing something I always
dreamed about.
Happy anniversary!

Hurricane fair draws large crowds


FOR HOMETOWN NEWS

An estimated 60,000
people attended the Red
Cross/Expert Shutter
Hurricane Fair the week-
end of June 2 3, at the
Treasure Coast Square
mall in Jensen Beach.
The event drew atten-
dees from throughout the
Treasure Coast. A total of
49 exhibitors and vendors
participated in the two-
day event.
"The Red Cross/Expert
Shutter Hurricane Fair is
designed to showcase the
latest in technology,
preparation and informa-
tion vital to weathering
the big storms," said Rob
Shelt, Director of disaster


services, American Red
Cross Martin County
Chapter. "Based on the
huge crowds, both Satur-
day and Sunday, Treasure
Coast residents under-
stand the need to be bet-
ter prepared should a
hurricane or tropical
storm threaten our area,"
Shelt added.
The event also featured
the Red Cross disaster
education simulator. The
simulator allows anyone
who has not experienced
a hurricane the opportu-
nity to feel the sound and
fury of the big storm with-
out the associated dan-
gers.
"We will be scheduling
the Disaster Simulator at


a variety of events and
functions throughout
hurricane season. Our
goal is to make sure
everyone is better pre-
pared to survive and
recover from a hurri-
cane," said Shelt. "We all
know it is not a matter of
if we are going to have a
hurricane again in Martin
County. It's just a matter
of when will it happen."

mation concerning hurri-
cane preparedness, con-
tact the American Red

I know most people go
to the Yucatan because
of Cancun. As for me, I
fly into Cancun, but I
rarely stay there.
My heart lies outside
the city with the Mayan
people and the ancient
sites.
For many years, I led
trips to the Yucatan, but I
hadn't been back in a
while. Then I noticed an
ad for $16 tickets on Spirit
Airlines from Florida to
Cancun.
I could only get seats for
a four-day trip, but that
was enough for me.
The problem was the
special price was just for
September travel, hurri-
cane season. Luckily, the
weather cooperated last
year.
I met my friends at the
Cancun Airport, rented a
car and set off on the toll
road for Piste and
Chichen Itza. The tolls
cost us a whopping $20
for a three-hour ride, but
it saved a lot of time.
Finally, we got to the
sleepy town of Piste,
home of the ruins. We'd
tour them tomorrow, but
now we just wanted to get
to our hotel, Hacienda


the ancient site of Coba.

Chichen.
I always try to find
charming hotels when I
travel, and this one was
no exception.
Hacienda Chichen is a
lovely 16th century
colonial mansion com-
plete with guest bunga-
lows, pool, spa, restaurant
and gardens. It certainly
passed the charm test.
Once we checked in, we
had a siesta followed by
dinner with mariachis.
Later I headed for the
pool and a moonlight
swim, all the while being
serenaded by the crickets
and frogs of the surround-
ing jungle.
After breakfast, we met
our Mayan guide. He took
us on a tour of Chichen
Itza, the premier Mayan
site in the Yucatan.
We saw the ball court,
observatory, sacred
cenote (a well), the
massive Pyramid of
Kukulkan and more. Later
.we visited the nearby
Balankanche Caves,
which were filled with
Mayan artifacts and an
underground lake.
A guided tour is offered
in English every few
hours.
We entered the caves
despite the heat and
wound our way through
them, overwhelmed by
their beauty.
Then we drove through

beach, complete with
swinging beds and just
enough electricity to fire
up the blender for an
evening margarita.
Today Tulum is still
charming, but with a lot
more choices.
This time we stayed at
American-owned Zamas,
a fascinating oceanfront
compound complete with
pool, store, restaurant,
hotel rooms and bunga-
lows.
Dinner was our first
order of business and it
did not disappoint, nor
did any meal at Zamas.
Afterward we went to
our rooms for the night.
Mine was an upstairs
room that could sleep
five. The decor was a mix
of rustic Mexican, eclectic
modern and art deco. It
was unique and totally
charming.
One person in our
group played the banjo,
so eventually, we all
gathered on my porch,
swinging away in our
hammocks and singing
under the Mexican stars.
The next morning we
set off on a guided tour of
Sian Ka'an Biosphere, a
place I'd always wanted to
see.
After a short drive, we
boarded a boat and
headed out through the
marshlands, mangroves,
lagoons and lakes of the
Biosphere. '

These ruins have barely
been excavated and the
jungle still covers 90
percent of it.
You can't miss the
towering, pointed pyra-
mids, however. It's quite a
hike to get to them, but
some smart entrepreneur
decided to set up a.
rickshaw and bicycle
business to make things
easier.
When we finally got to
the pyramids, we climbed
the precarious steps to the
top, getting a great view of
the jungle from what's
actually the highest point
in the Yucatan.
Next it was on to the
seaside town of Tulum.
When I first visited
years ago, there were few
hotels, Mostly there were
cabanas right on the


We saw loads of birds,
but imagine what it must
look like during migra-
tion.
We loved everything,
especially when our guide
told us it was time to
float.
Little did we know
floating meant lying back
on our flattened lifejack-
ets and letting the current
take us endlessly down-
stream.
It was amazing and Sian
Ka'an was certainly worth
it.
If we'd had more time
we could have swum in
some of the nearby
cenotes, but we were off
to explore the stunning
seaside ruins of Tulum.
Tomorrow would be our
last day on this very
abbreviated journey to
the Yucatan, but as
always, it did not disap-
point.
And with $16 airline
tickets, how could you go
wrong?

Like the Hometown News,


computers keep getting better

Five years. Has it really
been that long? I guess
it has.
It's hard to believe, but
looking at my calendar,
sure enough, five long
years have gone by since I
got that fateful phone call
telling me Steve Erlanger
was back in town with
plans to launch another
newspaper and would I be
interested in writing for
him again?
It didn't take me long to
think about it; of course I
would.
Especially when I found
out he was putting together
his original team of Tammy
Raits, Phil Galdys and
others.
I knew from past experi-
ence that this venture was
sure to be a success and
happily signed on to the
project.
And what a successful
ride it's been.
SA lot has changed since
Hometown News was
launched.'
We went from being
available in just the Trea-
sure Coast to weekly
publication from Palm
Beach County all the way
up to the Space Coast and
Volusia County.
Talk about expansion.
Not much in computers
has changed though.
Keeping systems virus
and spyware free is still the
No. 1 thing I get asked
about. People still have a
hard time remembering to
backup their data, until
disaster happens, that is.
Hard drives (permanent
storage) devices have
steadily gotten bigger and
computers themselves
have gotten more powerful,
but manufacturers still
have a habit of squander-
ing all that extra power on
new machines with tons of
little programs that run in
the background right out of
the box.
It doesn't look like that's
ever going to change.


Ia


SEAN MCCARTHY
Compute This

Things have changed for
me though, and in big ways
I went from being
married and doing consult-
ing work in the evenings
and on weekends to being
a single dad and not having
time for any consulting
work at all.
I still spend my days in
front of a keyboard, but my
days of running around
town fixing computer
problems are long gone.
I can't say that I miss it.
What will the next five
years bring?
Well, one can only guess.
I'm sure this newspaper
will continue to grow and
be successful and I'm sure
computers will keep
getting more powerful.
I'm also pretty sure that
manufacturers will still
continue the bad habit of
loading machines up with
a ton of useless junk and
I'm pretty sure people will
still need help dealing with


Some things never
change.
There are a few things
coming around the corner
that I will be watching over
the next few years.
Microsoft's new operat-
ing system, Vista, is one to
watch. It will be interesting
to see how that stabilizes
after it's been out for a year
or two.
Speaking of operating
systems, the big rumor
right now is that Dell will
soon begin to offer
machines running Linux
(Ubuntu) for those folks
brave enough to give it a
try.
Microsoft has just
announced its new Surface
computer, too.
This remarkable gizmo
promises to change the
way people compute and,
going by what I know about
"multi touch" computers, it
probably will.
We will have to wait a bit,
as the first Surface
machines are only going to
be available to businesses.
No telling how long it will
be before these new high-
tech coffee tables become
available to the rest of us.
Another thing I'll be
watching over the next few
years is storage.
The size of your typical
hard drive continues to
grow by leaps and bounds.
I think when Hometown
News first launched five
years ago, hard drives
averaged around 20

Editor's confidence gets opportunities


W en my husband,
Roy and I moved
to Florida in 2002,
1 became a volunteer with
the American Cancer
Society in Stuart.
My responsibility was to
dopinblit il\ for events such
as "Making Strides against
Breast Cancer" and "Relay
for Life."
I knew very little about
publicity, but a lot about
being a pest, so I bombard-
ed Tammy Raits, vice
president and managing
editor of Hometown News,
with press releases.
Eventually, she began to
recognize my name.
When a staff member
was diagnosed with breast
cancer, Tammy and I began
talking because she knew I
was a survivor and she
wanted to understand
what the reporter was
going through.
She remembers that I
kept badgering her about
doing freelance reporting
Of course, I remember it
differently. My recollection
is that she called me and
asked me if I'd like to do
some writing.
Since she's the boss, we'll
go with her story.
My first assignment was
about three companies
who had made Florida
Trend magazine's list of
something-or-other.
It was just before the July
4 weekend in 2003, and I
knew it would be hard to
reach executives for
quotes.
I figured that would be
my first and last assign-
ment.
Somehow I got it in on
time and I began doing
steady freelance reporting
for the paper.
Tammy knew that I
couldn't work full-time,
and she was willing to
accommodate a part-time
schedule.
In January 2004, I had


SHELLEY KOPPEL
Alive and Well
part of my lung removed
and had to stop working.
Later, I worked for some
other publications, but I'd
always had a dream about
having a column that
helped people understand
complex medical informa-
tion.
In summer 2005, Tammy
and I ran into each other
again and I mentioned the
column.
The timing was right, and
in August 2005,1 I started
"Alive and Well."
Writing the column has
been a gift to me.
I am able to choose
topics that I'm interested in
and that I think will interest
the readers.
No one interferes or tells
me what to write about.
I've been able to share
personal experiences as
they relate to health and
even write from the heart
about my struggle with
breast cancer and Roy's
battle with Alzheimer's
disease.
Readers have told me
how much these personal
stories have meant to
them, and I am truly
grateful to have the oppor-
tunity to share them with
you.
Last year, Tammy took
another chance on me.
I wanted to do some
more work, and she was
looking for an entertain-

ment writer.
On paper, I didn't look
like the ideal candidate,
except for being curious
about everything and
loving the theater.
I honestly didn't know if I
was up to the job. She
thought I was, and I
decided to trust her yet
again.
Her instincts about such
things are a lot better than
mine, and she has always
had a confidence in me
that far exceed my own.
It has made me try very
hard, because I have never
wanted to let her down.
Again, I have been given
the opportunity to create
something new.
The entertainment
section has grown in the
last year, and I have had the
wonderful experience of
interviewing some of the
marvelous people who
have come to the Treasure
Coast.
I got to speak to actor Joel
Grey who was in."Cabaret,"
the very first Broadway
show I saw; Andrea
Mitchell, whose reporting
I've admired for years;
author Mary Higgins Clark,
who spoke to me about the


creative process; and singer
Denyce Graves, one of
opera's shining stars.
I've met people in
community theater who
are doing wonderful things
and had the opportunity to
see some terrific perform-
ances.
I even began taking
singing lessons, fulfilling
another dream, because I
finally had the cntiitiluce
to do it.
Hometown News has
enriched the community in
many ways, but it has given
me opportunities I've never
had before.
For that, I am profoundly
grateful.
I want to give a thank you
to Tammy Raits and
publisher Steve Erlanger
for continuing to take a
chance on me.
It's an honor to be a part
of this wonderful enter-
prise.

Dear Friends and Family
It is difficult to find the words to express our gratitude for
the many kindnessess you have shown us during this very
sad time.
We are so grateful for all you have done for us. The cards,
letters, mass cards, prayers, phone and email messages and
most of all the Celebration of Tom's Life that took place at Indian Riverside Park.
To have arrived home after an entire funeral and repast in New Jersey for him and
to have all this taken care of was truly amazing. The sense of community was so
strong, I knew we were really HOME and where Tom wants us to be. It means a
great deal as we struggle with our heartbreaking loss. Your love and support
shone through during that day a few weeks ago and continues to carry on today.
I wish I could have had the ability to thank you all individually and personally-
given the tremendous outpouring of support that was shown, but that would be
impossible. All your support is allowing me the ability to take each day as it
comes, with our two sons, giving and gaining strength through each other.
Please know that your generosity and thoughtfulness have touched us deeply.
Knowing that we are not alone helps us to bear our grief and sadness.
Thank you for being there for us.
This was such a tribute to the man who was the light of our lives.
God Bless you all, -

Car buying can be like a colonoscopy


This article originally
appeared in the Feb. 9 issue
ofHometown News
If you are over 55 you
should have had a
colonoscopy. If you
haven't, call your doctor
because this could save
your life. It did mine, but
that's another story. I had
another colonoscopy
yesterday and I have to tell
you that it's a very
unpleasant experience,
mainly from the mental
anguish anticipation and
the discomfort of the
preparation the previous
day.
I had a lot of time to
think about my procedure
and I started thinking
about how this experience
parallels that of buying a
car. It's something you
must do and has a very
good benefit, but you
dread the process.
This column has consist-
ed mainly of suggestions
and inside information
that can make your new. or
used car buying experi-
ence less of a fearful
occasion. If this is the first
column of mine you have
read, you can read all of
them on my blog,
www.EarlStewartOnCars.c
om.
Almost every one of my
articles has originated
from my customers' and
others' experiences when
buying cars from other car
dealers. I get a lot of calls
from people who have
never bought a car from
me. They call to tell me of
their bad experience with
another dealer and, when I
get several calls on the
same subject, I write a
column on it. People often
call me asking for advice
or assistance after they
have already bought,
which is "closing the barn
door after the horse is
gone."
OA more than one
occasion, I have called car
dealers asking them to
consider undoing a wrong
they have caused one of
their customers. I have to
confess that I am "batting
zero" on this effort. I won't
give up, however. I just
made another call this
afternoon on behalf of a

customer whose install-
ment sales contract,
signed by her and the
dealership, had a higher
interest rate than a second
contract the dealer sent to
the lender. The customer
told me she signed only
one contract, the one she
took home a copy of.
One thing that amazes
me about these weekly
columns that I have been
writing is that no car
dealer has ever called me
to complain or for any
other reason. I have not
been sued, either.
I think that says some-
thing about the truth of
rty articles. I'm not a
lawyer, but I do know that
you can't successfully sue
somebody for libel or
slander if they write or say
the truth.
I know of one car dealer
who threatened to cancel
her advertising in the Palm
Beach Post because she
thought it owned Home-
town News. I am puzzled
why not one single dealer.
would call me just out of
curiosity. I don't have a
secretary and I don't
screen any of my calls, nor
do any of my employees.
They do know how
successful my dealership
is and how fast my sales
are growing. They know
that I am selling a lot of
their former customers.
Many of these new cus-
tomers tell me how they
told the other dealers why
they chose to take their
business elsewhere.
I believe that before too
much longer, we will see
some changes in the way
other car dealers do
business, even if they
refuse to call me, as I have
repeatedly invited them to.
do.
Sooner or later they will


understand that treating
your customers with
courtesy and integrity is
just plain good business.

wonderful
theatrical compa-
nies performing many of
the classics of the musical
theater, and they're classic
for a good reason. They
stand up well, even 50-60
years after they were
written. This year, we've
seen wonderful produc-
tions of "The Pajama
Game" at StarStuck, "The
Music Man" at Shiloh,
"Sugar" at the Pineapple
Playhouse and even the
world premier of Treasure
Coast native John Mercu-
rio's musical, "The River
Haven Book Club," which
was also a Shiloh produc-
tion. People have suggest-.
ed that the time may be
right to add a show by
Stephen Sondheim, whose
more sophisticated lyrics
and themes don't always
send you out of the
theater laughing and
humming. Unfortunately,
it's expensive to stage a
musical, and producers
are understandably
nervous about mounting a
show that plays to empty
seats.
'We'd like to know if you
feel that Treasure Coast

The summer is a wonderful time
for the family to visit the Elliott
Museum in Stuart. There are spe-
cial art and archaeology camps for
kids, but even if you just want a
great place to spend an afternoon,
the Elliott is a family-friendly spot.
The museum was built in 1960 by
Harmon Elliott, a winter resident,
to honor his father Sterling, a suc-
cessful inventor who held numer-
ous patents on everything from
bicycles to 'office equipment. A
bicycle builder in Massachusetts,
Mr. Elliott used his engineering

Elliott's reputation was such that
Thomas Edison reportedly asked
to meet him "to shake the hand of
a genius."
Mr. Elliott's 1886 quadricycle is
on display as part of the Elliott's
wonderful collection of antique
and classic cars. The exhibition
showcases such cars as a 1902
Stanley Steamer, a 1909 Ford
Model T, and a 1920 Hudson tour-
ing car once owned by singer Enri-
co Caruso, a 1926 Bugatti racer and

A collection of Seminole arti-
facts, spotlighting some of Martin
County's first settlers, will be in
place until mid-July, when it is
leaving for Tallahassee and the
Museum of Florida History.
The Seminoles first came to
Spanish colonial Florida in the
early 1700s to escape British
oppression in the Carolinas. After
the Seminole Wars in the 1830s,
they were displaced to reserva-

I See ELLIOT, B5


Taurus-April 20-May 20
Your universal energy is positive right now. You
are in a forward flow. Stay focused on your
most important dreams and visions. You don't
have to be a rocket scientist in life to be happy
and successful. You just have to be aware of
your inner guidance and follow your heart.
When you do this spirit will reward you greatly.

Gemini-May 21-June 21
The sun in Gemini continues to bless you. This
is your time of the year. Be bold. Be grateful.
Wake up each morning, give thanks and ask
that your visions come into reality. Then multi-
ply these divine blessings through you, family
and others who have a need. Now your great-
est wishes positively will come true.

Cancer-June 22-July 22
Your wonderful heart fuels your strong motiva-
tion. When you set it in motion you are capa-
ble of producing life's greatest miracles. They
are not really miracles at all. They are the


result of seeing everyone else around you
happy and well. When you have,this higher
good in your heart, you are at your creative
best.
Leo-July 23-Aug. 22
Finding, enhancing and protecting your divine
purpose should be the No. 1 priority in life.
You are a hunter in the zodiac. Your greatest
love is the chase. You thrive on accomplish-
ment. The journey is more important than the
destination. This wonderful fiery nature lights
the path for others on their way.

Virgo-Aug. 23-Sept. 22
Follow your own truth and allow others to fol-
low theirs. Align with what is right to you and
for you. That which is truly yours wants to
come to you. That which is not will fall a way.
Refuse to let fear, doubt or indecision cloud
your way. Look for everyday miracles and live

DIN IN ENI[RTHINMENI


Finding comedy in the absurd


BY SHELLEY KOPPEL
Entertainment writer
Brian Regan finds humor
in the most ordinary things.
The Miami native and Let-
terman favorite finds humor
in trying not to fail an eye
exam, understanding an air-
line arrival board, driving
and talking on a cell phone
and eating Pop-Tarts.
If you're not familiar with
his brand of physical come-
dy, you can catch him at the
Sunrise Theatre on June 21,
when his Comedy Central
Live Tour rolls into town. In a
telephone interview, he
spoke about comedy and
what's really important to
him.
He realized that life was
absurd at a young age.
"When I was a kid, before I
considered being a comedi-
an, I looked around and
noticed things that were odd
and interesting," he says. "I
come from a family of eight
children and we're all pretty
funny. You had a built-in
audience and it was thrill to
make my dad or mom laugh.
"Sometimes I wonder if
the neighbors thought we
were a household of mani-
acs. They were probably
tempted to call the authori-
ties about those Regans


Brian Regan


who've been eating turkey
and laughing for an hour."
Mr. Regan went to Heidel-
berg College in Tiffin, Ohio,
which was a world apart
from Miami.
"It was culture shock but I
loved it," he says.
"I liked going to, a complete-
ly different world and trying
something new in every
sense. The climate was very
different. I had T-shirts and
one winter coat that went
below my knees and had fur
around the face. I looked like
I was working on the Alaska
pipeline. I used to get
ridiculed in a fun way: It
must be below 50 degrees
because Brian has his winter
jacket on.'"
In college he discovered
theater and knew he wanted
to be a comedian. He was


set to try his luck in NewYork
or Los Angeles after gradua-
tion, but a comedy club
opened in Fort Lauderdale
and he was able to come
back home and try his luck
at stand-up.
Mr. Regan's comedy is
known for being very physi-
cal and very clean. He
knows that clean comedy is
unusual these days.
"I do it because that's how I
write," he says. "What's
intriguing is that people
assume older folks would
like clean comedy, and they
do. But I get so many young,
college age kids who com-
ment that they love that it's
clean. Clean comedy these
days is counter-culture. I'm
always careful to point out
that there's a place for the
other kid, Richard Pryor,
arguably the best stand-up
who ever lived, used exple-
tives, but it was organic and
truthful for him."
Mr. Regan has made a
career finding the humor in
Pop Tarts, Fig Newtons, "The
Antiques Road Show" and
the lack of valet parking at
emergency room entrances,
but it's his family that keeps
him grounded.
'"As much as I like doing
stand-up, I try to be wise
enough to know what's


important," he says. "I have
a wonderful supportive wife
and two healthy kids. I love
comedy but I love being a
husband and a daddy
more."
Brian Regan appears at the
Sunrise Theatre, 117 S. Sec-
ond St., Fort Pierce, on June
21 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $
37.50 and $32.50; call the box
office at (772) 461-4775 or

Elliot
From page BI
The Elliott also houses
the largest collection of
signed Baseball Hall of
Fame memorabilia outside
of Cooperstown. Nearly
every player in the hall of
Fame is represented, and
the letters, signed bats and
photos tell the story of
baseball's history, includ-
ing sections on the Negro
Leagues and the All-Amer-
ican Girls Professional
Baseball League, featured
in the movie, "A League of
Their Own."
The Elliott has several
dollhouses, and they will
be a part of a new exhibit
on toys, dolls, bears and
games opening this sum-

ing how children played
before video games.
Kids and adults will
enjoy many of the perma-
nent exhibits, including
items depicting the history


of Martin County, and dis-

general store, apothecary

the barber only pulls teeth
on Friday.

resident from Maryland,
toured the museum
recently with Jane Hendrix,
the Elliott's curator.
'I live outside Washing-
ton, with all the museums
there, but this is great," Ms.
Miller says. "I'm really glad
I found you, and I haven't
even been to the gift shop
yet!"

are all children
iof the universe.
We are heirs to
creating a life filled with
love, peace, health,
abundance, faith and
happiness. However, we
can have a lot of money,
fine cars, homes and
prestige and still be
unhappy. Why?
Because the basic
spiritual elements are
missing that underlie
earthly success.
It all starts with having a
vision, a dream and a goal
and then making wise
choices as we walk the
path of life toward our
destination.
Living a noble life begins
when we first learn to say,
"no," to negative behavior
of our own making or from
others in the world.
The first step to living a
spiritual based life is to tell
the truth. If we say, "yes,
yes, yes," when sometimes
we want to say, "no," we
are lying to the universe,
others and ourselves.
It messes us up inside
and eventually creates
resentment because it is
not based on truth.
Making wise choices and
vetoing negative behavior
is the foundation for
respect.
We get no true respect in
the world until we learn to
say no when needed.
People hearing it have to
respect your decision
whether they like it or not
when you stick with it and
not weaken.
There are only two
responses that others give
when we say no.
The one hearing it says
something like, "Oh no,
you're not going to do it
your way. You are going to
do it my way first, whatev-
er it is." This person is
using you and doesn't

respect your decision. This
is not a real friend.
The other answer we
hear is, "Gee, I didn't mean
to harm you, you are my
friend. Will you forgive me
for my behavior?" This is a
friend talking. This situa-
tion can usually be worked
out and you remain
friends.
Respect is the founda-
tion for love.
How can we truly love if
we first don't respect
someone?
Love then becomes the
foundation for honor.
Honor then becomes the
foundation for dignity.
This is a noble life. This
is honoring our spiritual
royalty.
Everyone on earth has
been given this heritage at
birth. Isn't this the way you
truly want to live? You can
do it. It has little to do with
earthly privilege, educa-
tion, experience, money or
possessions. It has every-
thing to do with wanting
to live a healthy, abundant
and happy life, free at last
to live a quality life rather
than settle for and live a
painful, burned out
existence.
When we make wise
choices and have respect,
love, honor and dignity in
life, true magic begins to

happen. With these
spiritual foundation
stones set, the universe
begins to bring positive
earthly increase our way.
We have now become a
powerful magnetic force.
The supreme law is "like
attracts like."
We become what we
hold inside our heart and
soul.
It's really that simple.
Once it is working for
you, others will want to
know how you do all these
noble things. You are now
the keeper of the light and
truth. Share it freely. This is
a beautiful life well lived.

best is yet to come.

in joy as they come and all
will be well.

Libra-Sept. 23-Oct 22
You continue to create
opportunities to grow. It is
your choice as to how you
proceed. The key is to listen
to your instincts. Continue to
open your heart and let the
visions pop into your mind.
Then act on the ones that
your spirit guides you to, and
you will flow in divine order
and emerge safely through
life.

Scorpio-Oct. 23-Nov. 21
This is a great time to create
your greatest visions and
desires and bring them into
reality. The key is to love and
respect yourself first. If you
don't, how can you expect
anyone else to?
Great rewards are possible
when you trust this divine
inner guidance. Get your
head in the way and you will
suffer. Surrender to the
divine will and all will be
well.

Sagittarius- Nov. 22-Dec. 21
Your nature is to accomplish
great things. To realize this,
surrender your outer earthly
self and let your inner uni-
versal guidance direct you.
When you do this, you will
be directed and introduced
to the greatness living in
your soul. Now you have
become the guiding light to
all of us in the universe.

Capricorn-Dec. 22-Jan. 19
When you love what you do,
success is assured. Lighten


up. Don't be so hard on
yourself. Keep letting go of
the past and learn to live one

Why isn't volleyball a

more popular sport?


BY MATT DEWHURST
Sports writer
During the school year,
Rick Ferrante sits in his
office inside the media
center at Port St. Lucie
High School surrounded
by pictures of his old vol-
leyball teams and medals
they have won.
Four years ago Ferrante
stepped down from his 14-
year tenure as the Jaguars
head girl's volleyball
coach, but his passion for
the game never retired.
Occasionally a student
will pop into his office and
ask him about the sport
and if he could help them
get a club team organized.
Curiously enough, more
times than not it's a boy
asking, not a girl said Fer-
rante. And for over a
decade he has had the
same answer: They can try,
but they won't get far.
"Kids come up to me all
the time and ask me why
there isn't a boy's volleyball
team," said Ferrante. "I say,
'write a letter (to the school
board)' and they never do."
Boy's volleyball became a
recognized sport in Florida
in 2003 and has its own
state championship. Oper-
ating during the spring
season, the sport doesn't
conflict with bigger boy's
sports like football, soccer,
or basketball.
Currently 119 schools in
Florida provide boy's vol-
leyball on a varsity level,
with more schools looking
to be added as the sport
grows. In fact; south Flori-
da is one of the biggest
areas for volleyball, be it
boys' or girls'. But while
counties north of Indian
River (Brevard, Orange and
Osceola) and south of Mar-


tin (Palm Beach, Broward

ing boy's volleyball pro-
grams, the Treasure Coast
doesn't.
"Some people in the area
have the mentality that
football is for boy's volley-
ball is for girl's," said Fer-
rante. "It's hard to break
through that."
Jay Stewart, who serves
as the athletic director for
Fort Pierce Central as well
St. Lucie County, says he
hears coaches ask all the
time, but doesn't see the
same reaction from stu-
dents.
A 2006 survey at Fort
Pierce Central showed lit-
tle to no interest in boys'
volleyball. And with the
financial obligations that
come with a new sports
team, on top of staying in
compliance with Title IX,
Stewart doesn't see boys'
volleyball coming to the
county anytime soon.
"We have made an effort
for improving opportuni-
ties for girls," said Stewart.
"We're -not in a position of
adding boys' volleyball at
this time."
But with cheerleading on
the cusp of becoming a
recognized sport by the
Florida High School Ath-
letic Association, and girl's
weightlifting already there,

winningest coach in public school history here isn't able
to coach boys. It would be a travesty to walk away with-
out boys' volleyball here. It's definitely one of the low
points of my career not to have boy's volleyball here. We
always put up the fight."

Finding a place to play
On Thursday nights at Minskey Gym in Port St. Lucie,
there is a group of male St. Lucie county high school stu-
dents who are now preparing for an international tour-
nament in the Dominican Republic. And although their
experience is limited, the boys still want to show they
can play.
"A lot of people think it's a girls sport and all that kind
of stuff," said Treasure Coast High School student Tim
Rouch Jr. "We're just trying to get on the court and teach
people the sport and do the best we can."
Rouch, along with his other teammates would love to
see boy's volleyball in high schools, can't understand
why people look at it as a less masculine sport. .
"I play football so if I can come out and play volleyball
then it's not just for girls," said Corey Denkers, a 2007
graduate of Port St. Lucie. "For a football guy to come out
and play volleyball it shows them that it's not just a girls'
sport."
But convincing people to bring the sport here might
not be as simple as getting a team together and setting
up a net.
Starting a new sport cost money. And even with claims
that girls' coaches would coach boys' teams for free to
start and they would use the girl's equipment, area'
administrators remain leery.
"It's a larger expense. They don't understand," said
Hank Salzer, a Martin County assistant superintendent.
"They say they will buy them uniforms, and that's nice,
but that's just a drop in the bucket. There are a lot of
issues that go into it."
Salzer also serves as the county's athletic director and
says that the schools already have enough problems with

Treasure Coast Galleons drop home opener


BY MATT DEWHURST
Sports writer
At 8:13 p.m. on June 9, an
estimated 200 fans scantily
covered the bleachers at
Lawnwood Stadium in
Fort Pierce, prepared to
cheer on the new Treasure
Coast, Galleons soccer
team.
Galleons owner Andre
Ruette grabbed the stadi-
um microphone ready to
belt out the team's opening
lineup, but as most open-
ing nights go, there were
still some small glitches
waiting to be worked out.
Instead of the lineup, the
blaring sound of feedback
echoed throughout the
stadium.
"If that is the biggest
thing that goes wrong
tonight, I think we'll be
alright," Ruette said with a


chuckle.
It was the Galleons long
awaited home debut. Their
previous home opener was
scheduled for May 19, but
canceled due to a schedul-
ing conflict at the stadium.
A small, but enthusiastic
crowd, watched as Trea-
sure Coast lost a nail-biter,
2-1, to the Space Coast
Strikers.
It was the Galleons first
loss of the season.
They beat Okeechobee
S.C., 4-2, on May 26 and
Port St. Lucie Hurricanes,
4-0, June 2, but were
unable to establish an
offensive presence
Treasure. Coast started
out fast, trying to establish
an offensive presence right
away. In the 18tn minute
Galleons captain and for-
mer Major League Soccer


all-star "Sneaky" Pete
Marino missed a chance to
take an early lead when his
shot slipped by the left
goal post. Eight minutes
later, another Marino shot
sailed wide of the right
goal post.
The striker would finally
put a goal in the back of
the net in the 88un minute
on a penalty kick, but by
then his team was already
down by two.
"In the first game the first
goal is always critical," said
Galleons fullback Matt
Walby. "Old Sneaky Pete
(Marino) missed some
goals that he puts away in
practice with his eyes
closed, but that's the way it
goes sometimes."
With the excitement that
surrounded the team's
home opener, the club's

underpaid faculty and
staff, and making sure they
are properly paid is higher
on the county's agenda
then adding a new sport.
"Every penny we spend
on something else, is
money we take from some-
one else," he said.
Salzer also doesn't see
the value in adding a sport
that may or may not pro-
vide students with scholar-
ship opportunities.
"I hear it every time. But
in reality you look at the
numbers it's very, very,
very, very small (amount of
scholarships given out),"
said Salzer. "We can't be all
things to every body. They
can't come to the public
education and say just do
it because they want it.
Our mission is education.
The recreation depart-
ment's is recreation."

The next step
The steps that must be
taken to start a varsity pro-
gram are simple, but time
consuming. First, students
would have to talk with
their school athletic direc-
tor, who would then go to
the principal with a
request. The principal
would then draft a letter of
recommendation to the
county athletic director
who would present it to
the county superintend-
ent. At that point the pro-
posal is in the had of
administrators who make
the decision if the proposal
is something to present to
the school board who

would vote on making a
request to the Florida High
School Athletic Associa-
tion.
So even if local players
show interest, the chain of
command to get a sport
approved is long and could
present many roadblocks
along the way.
"We've had boys go to
assistant superintendent's
and get shot down," said
Beilicki. "'Why can Palm

Beach County get 20
schools, and we can't get
three? Politics are very
strong in this county."
Unless more students
take action to bring boy's
volleyball to the Treasure
Coast, this part of the story
isn't going to change any-
time soon. For local volley-
ball enthusiasts that fact
has become reality, while
their sport remains a
dream.

first loss was secondary in
the eyes of the players and
coaches, who seemed
happy with the turnout.
"I was impressed with
the stadium. It's real nice,
and great for what we're
looking to do," said Mari-
no, who leads the league
with five goals after three
games. "A little more fans
would be good. But it's a
great atmosphere. I'm a lit-
tle upset that we lost, but
I'm happy that we have a
good team in the league."
Despite the loss, Trea-
sure Coast (2-1) remains
on top of the standings
and will play undefeated
Palmeiras S.C. (2-0) in
Palm City on June 16.
The Galleons will host
their next home game on
June 23 against Okechobee

Great courses found at Jonathan's Landing


p north, when you
want to describe a
place with a
relaxing atmosphere,
friendly people and all
the comforts of home,
you say that it has "great
mahogany."
At Jonathan's Landing
Golf Club in Jupiter, one
will find just such wood-
work.
In today's crowded
market of clubs vying for
members, it's the little
things that truly stand
out.
Certainly having a
great golf facility is
important, but without
the people to make it
enjoyable, everything is
for naught.
At Jonathan's Landing,
in addition to a fantastic
trio of golf courses, a pair
of great clubhouses
complete with dining
rooms and an inviting
bar to quench your
thirst, one will find, from
the staff to the members,
a genuinely warm,
friendly group of people.
Developed by ALCOA
Properties 27 years ago,
the project was named
after Quaker missionary

on the beautiful Tom

golf course, I would
welcome it. The ride
gives you time to relax
and forget about the day.
You're just far enough
from the office that it
feels like 'another world.
The Old Trail facility
features a pair of courses.
The first is the Fazio
course built in 1986. The
second was designed by
Arthur Hills and com-
pleted in 1991. The two
are as distinctly different
as their designers.
The Fazio course is
longer, with rolling
terrain and diabolical
greens routed among
towering pines and
shimmering lakes.
With five sets of tees,
the course plays as long
as 6,904 yards down to
right around 5,100.
Fazio definitely did
some of his best work
here.
There is a variety of par
3s, a drivable par-4 to
tempt you, and what may
be the best trio of finish-
ing holes I have played.
The Hills course is
much shorter, with
precision playing a key
role in lower scores. The
course winds through the
natural beauty of cypress
hammocks and towering
stands of pine.
Here you will also find
five sets of tees, with the
longest coming in at a
mere 6,282 yards. Don't
let the yardage make you
feel almighty when you
arrive at the first tee.

The Old Trail facility is
pure golf.
Neither roads nor
residential development
are within the course.
This is a feature offered
by few, if any, South
Florida courses.
In town, Jonathans'
Landing features a
marina, tennis courts
and the Village course,
another Tom Fazio
design. With plenty of
sports activities and
social programs, the club
caters to a membership
with an active lifestyle.
The Village course
designed by George Fazio
in 1978 and tweaked by
his son, Tom, in 2000,
plays to 6,616 yards from
the tips.
The course offers
exceptionally sculpted
fairways and greens all
within the community.
The signature hole at
the Village is the par-5
17th. After your second
shot on this dogleg left
hole, you cross the
Intracoastal Waterway
via a specially designed
ferry that holds two golf
carts.
Earlier this year, the
members of the private
equity member-owned
club voted to begin a $12
million renovation to
both clubhouses and
construction of a new
sports and fitness center.
When the renovations
are complete in 2009,
members will find new
locker rooms, expanded
dining rooms, new golf
and tennis pro shops,
new lounges and an
outdoor dining terrace.
The future is shaping
up nicely at Jonathan's
Landing. The improve-
ments will give the place
an updated, yet open and
airy feel, all while keep-
ing the comforting look
of old Florida.
You can reach the
membership office of
Jonathan's Landing at
(561) 744-4250 or by
visiting www.jonathans-
landing.com.
Tell them you wish to
take a tour, play a round
of golf and experience
the "great mahogany" of
this wonderful place for
yourself.

James Stammer has
been an avid golfer and
golf enthusiast for 30
years. He hosts the Tues-
day Night Golf Show on
WPSL 1590-AM radio
station. Contact him at
