It’s been seven years since Karen Pashleylast visited Dade City, but she was excited tohave the chance to reconnect with areafriends.
Pashley was in town Friday for a booksigning of her best-selling Christian novel,“Precious in His Sight,” released just lastmonth.
In the first week of its release, the novelcatapulted to No. 2 on Amazon’s Christiannonfiction best-seller list. It also was en-dorsed by New York Times’ best-sellingauthor Denise Jackson, the wife of countrymusic icon, Alan Jackson.
It’s been a surreal experience for thefirst-time novelist, who was surprised by her
sudden popularity.“As a first-time novelist, this isn’t what we
gear ourselves up for. We hope that our fam-ily and friends will read it and that will beit,” Pashley said. “I knew the book had merit,but it’s so hard to get recognition in thispublishing industry with the rise of inde-pendent publishing.
“People are apparently resonating withthis story, sharing it with their friends, andit’s just really exciting what is happening,”Pashley said.
In a nutshell, the book centers on a scan-dalous affair of a prominent southernChristian couple, and how it affects the hus-band, wife and mistress.
“It’s the story of three people entangled

After a hiatus of more than two years, ac-tivities are expected to begin again at thePlantation Palms Golf Course.
A new owner took possession on May 16and plans to get the golf course’s fairwaysand greens ready for use within a fewmonths.
Bill Place, owner of Ace Golf Inc., boughtthe golf course and clubhouse for about$700,000 in a short sale approved by the U.S.Department of Justice. His general managerpicked up the keys to the clubhouse at theclosing, said Rob Rochlin of Dennis Realty.
Place is on vacation in Africa.In an email sent to The Laker/Lutz News
in late April, Place said he hoped to have thegolf course open within four months.
After years of neglect, the golf courseneeds extensive work, including restorationof the fairways and greens, Place said, in alater email on May 18.
“Grass and weeds grew up to 6 feethigh!” Place said. “The greens are all dead, andmost of the fairways will have to be re-grassed.”
Almost everything from the parking lot tothe clubhouse has to be renewed.

Residents shareideas for improvingZephyr ParkBy Kevin Weisskweiss@lakerlutznews.com
Refurbished tennis courts, state-of-the artplayground equipment and an increasedpresence of law enforcement officers arejust a few examples of the many requestslocal residents have for the redevelopmentof Zephyr Park.
Dozens of people gathered to offer theirideas for improvements at Zephyr Park, dur-ing a May 12 open house at the Alice HallCommunity Center.
The Zephyrhills CommunityRedevelopment Agency organized the pub-lic session to solicit public participation indeveloping the park’s master plan, whichwill be presented to the Zephyrhills Parks &Recreation Board and the City Council inAugust.
Representatives from Kimley-Horn andAssociates Inc. — the park’s design team —also were present to answer residents’ ques-tion on the planning process.

Open house attendees filled out comment cards listing what additions they’d like to see improved at Zephyr Park ‘today’ and in the ‘future.’
Residents were able to see several graph-ics featuring possible park amenities, such asvarious types of pavilions, public art dis-plays, water splash pads and playgrounds.
Attendees also could fill out commentcards and provide priority rankings on parkchanges they’d like to see.
“What I really want to do isget an idea of what the residentswant — to get a concept of it,”said Gail Hamilton, CRA directorfor Zephyrhills. “The citizens ofZephyrhills deserve an urbanpark as good as anything youwould find in Tampa or in St.Pete.”
Hamilton said it’s critical forthe city to have a “great park sys-tem” to help increase the valuewithin the CRA district, which isa 520-acre area that essentially en-compasses the center spine ofthe city, generally betweenHercules Park to C Avenue, andfrom Zephyr Park to 17th Street.
“We are competing withWesley Chapel, we are competingwith every city in central Florida,so...by improving the park, peo-ple who live in thisneighborhood, their homes be-come more valuable,” sheexplained.
“We could entice someone tobuild homes nearby that’s market rate, notlow-income. So, we’re really looking to notonly build a park, but also improve the sur-roundings around it,” Hamilton said.
She also said she’d like to see a few

The crushed beer cans on the grass helpto set the scene at this assembly for studentsat Wiregrass Ranch High School.
As students pack the stands on one sideof the school’s football stadium, they can seea giant black tarp — hiding a scene behindit.
Then, they begin to hear voices.“St. Paul, I can’t believe you’re still drink-
ing beer. How many beers have you hadtonight?” his prom date asks. “I thought I wasgoing to drive, if you were going to drink.”
“Babe, I only had a couple in the lasthour or so. I’ll be able to drive,” St. Paul re-sponds.
“I think maybe you should let me drive.You’re going a little fast. You’re starting toscare me,” his date continues.
“I’ll get us home fine,” he says. “If you’reso worried, why don’t you wear your seat-belt?”
“We’re almost home,” she responds, “andI didn’t want to get my dress wrinkled bywearing my seatbelt.
“Look out! There’s a car,” she shouts, andthen begins screaming.
There are sounds of a collision, and thetarp is removed to reveal two smashed cars.
The drunk driver, bloodied, steps out ofthe car looking dazed.
The windshield of his car has been bro-ken and his date is sprawled across thehood of the car.
She’s not moving.The driver of the other car is trapped in
her seat. Passengers in her car get out, theirdresses spattered in blood.
As the scene plays out, MarianellaCampos, a rescue training officer for PascoCounty Fire Rescue, narrates what’s happen-ing.
Calls go into 911 and emergency crewsfrom Pasco County Fire Rescue, the PascoCounty Sheriff’s Office and the FloridaHighway Patrol, respond to the scene.
While a law enforcement officer adminis-ters a field sobriety test to the drunk driver,emergency crews use the Jaws of Life tofree the other driver from her car.
A helicopter from Bayflite swoops in toairlift another victim to the hospital.
The deceased girl is covered with asheet, on the hood of the car.
Meanwhile, the deceased girl’s mother,performed by Enid Fernandez, has beenfrantically looking for her daughter. Whenshe arrives at the scene, she’s told by thepassengers of the other car that her daugh-ter is beneath the sheet. At first, she refusesto believe it could be her daughter. When re-ality sinks in, she’s inconsolable.
As the helicopter lifts off, another crewplaces the deceased girl in a body bag. She’sthen moved into an ambulance, which rep-resents a hearse.
Ten students, wearing prom attire andwhite face makeup, walk silently behind the‘hearse’ as it rolls away. They represent thosewho have died from drunk or distracteddriver incidents. They will remain silentthroughout the day — to emphasize thelosses that can occur because of careless be-haviors.
The event, called “Prom Promise” aims toheighten awareness of the potentially dead-ly results of driving while impaired.
The timing was excellent because it washeld on May 20, the day before WiregrassRanch High’s prom, said Greg Finkel, facilita-tor of the school’s Students AgainstDestructive Decisions (SADD) club.
“It’s going to hit home,” he predicted.Students who helped to organize the
event agreed.“We’re using people that are well-
known,” said Beliz Esen, a leader in theSADD club. “They’ll be able to empathizemore, with someone they know, rather thansomeone they don’t know. As in, this is actu-ally something that could actually happen tome,” she said.
Alexia Diamond, another SADD leader,said: “This actually happens every day. It’snot just in movies and TV shows.”
Jonathan Jerez, 17, also a leader of SADD,said the event will make a difference: “Beingable to see the scenario, with people theydo know, I think is going to change their de-cision making.”
Seventeen-year-old St. Paul Allen playedthe role of the drunk driver.
“This is such a serious thing,” he said. Theevent may not get through to some kids, butit will to others, he said.
The message is important, said 15-year-old Emily Snider, who played the role of thedeceased prom date.
“A lot of people are lost. A lot of peopledie every year, just from regular car acci-dents. Coming home from prom, while
drinking, it’s even more devastating,” shesaid. “They’re kids. They’re just kids.”
Victoria Stitcher, who played the role ofthe driver whose car was hit, said sheknows that people will likely drink regard-less of the dramatization, but she added: “I’mhoping that they’ll think twice and notdrive.”
Olivia Speer, who played the role of apassenger in Stitcher’s car, said people tendto forget that those drinking and drivingaren’t the only ones at risk.
“This can happen to absolutely anyone. Itdoesn’t necessarily have to be them that’s inthe car drinking. It can be anyone,” she said.
Vanessa Reyes, another passenger in thecar, agreed: “They think it won’t happen tothem, but it happens so much. They need tosee that.”
Kailee Barboza, another passenger, wasglad to take part. “If at least one person de-cides that they’re not going to drink or text,while driving, we made a huge difference.”
The school’s two school resource offi-cers, Cpl. Anthony Justice and Cpl. PatrickCottrell, think the event will have an im-pact.
“If you have a real serious crash, this isactually what happens,” Cottrell said. “Theremay be somebody that does die. There arepeople that are flown out.”
Teenagers tend to think they’re invinci-ble, Cottrell added. “They don’t understandhow fragile life is.”
A Bayflite helicopter assisted the PascoCounty Sheriff’s Office and Pasco CountyFire Rescue simulate the reality of ‘whathappens’ at an alcohol-related, crash scene.
‘Prom Promise’ drama aims to save lives
The stands on one side of Wiregrass RanchHigh School’s stadium are packed with stu-dents watching Prom Promise, the dramati-zation of a head-on fatal drunk driving colli-sion involving students attending prom.
FRED BELLET/PHOTOSDuring the dramatization of a drunk driving accident, a Pasco County firefighter preventsOlivia Speer, 14, left and Vanessa Reyes, 16, from approaching the “dead girl” lying on thehood of the opposing car. The dead passenger played by classmate, Emily Snider, 15, asophomore, is sprawled on the hood of the car, ejected through the windshield because shedid not buckle up.

Lo"RooThe picture leapt off my
Facebook feed as though itwere spring-loaded. Right thereamong the cat videos, awkward
jokes and advertisements for Jaguars, amongthe goofy quizzes and the “mind-blowingfacts you weren’t taught in school,” thereshe was: Sandy Graves, Land O’ Lakes histori-an and voice of reason, in a trademarkDonald Trump ball cap. Garish red, withTRUMP emblazoned in navy across thecrown and below it in white the celebritybillionaire’s trademark slogan, “MakeAmerica Great Again.”
See for yourself. It’s right up there, nextto all these words.
But, it wasn’t the hat so much as whatwas below it that held my trained eye:Graves was not grimacing. Not in the least.Instead, peering over the shoulder of herpal Debbie Hannifan, Polk County’sRepublican state committeewoman, Graveswas immortalized in the process of — thereis no other word for this — beaming.
In that cap. That garish red, shouting cap.This was — is — not the look of one of
those establishment Republicans resignedto fate. It’s not even the look of a party regu-lar who has examined the most likelychoices for November and, as a GOP regularmight who’d been force-fed John McCain orBob Dole, shrug that, her nominee is thebetter of two disappointing choices, thelesser of two evils.
Nope. There’s genuineness in those eyesbeneath that curved brim, and a sincereturn to the corners of her mouth. Our Sandymight have boarded the — ugh — Trumptrain late and even reluctantly — it surelywas both, as we shall see — but now thatshe’s found her seat, she’s ready to make theargument on behalf of the reality TV king.
She concedes there’s obligation at workhere. “As a state committeewoman,” she says,“I always was going to be for the last onestanding.” And, she’s not reluctant to play theany-of-our-guys-are-better-than-their-guys (orHillary) card.
However, in a year with an electoratefairly bellowing out a theme of disgust anddiscord from the left and right, November’swinner will need more than “the other oneis worse” working for him/her. At last,Graves says she’s ready to make the “more”argument.
It bears noting she started the campaigna fan of Carly Fiorina. “I thought it was timefor a woman,” Graves says, echoing a senti-ment with which certain Democrats willreadily agree, “but it had to be the rightwoman.”
The former head of Hewlett-Packard wasthe briefest of shooting stars across thecrowded Republican firmament. There wasthe glittering performance at the first kids’table debate that boosted her to that memo-rable a face-to-look-at-that-face Trumpbeatdown when she made the main stage.But, like the brightest meteorites, she quick-ly flamed out.
And Trump? Says Graves, eyes rolling, “Hewas in my top 18.”
On the other hand, Graves didn’t startout a Ronald Reagan fan, either. She volun-teered early in 1980 for former Texas Gov.John Connolly, famous for having beenwounded in the front seat of the limousinewhen President Kennedy was assassinated.
“Lots of Republicans didn’t wantReagan,” she says. “He did some things inCalifornia [as governor] that weren’t conser-vative at all.” That’s true. Google “Republicanliberal California governor.”
“But, look how that worked out,” she re-sumes. “Ronald Reagan surprised a lot ofpeople. It could happen again.” For the sakeof argument, let’s play along.
What’s Graves’ anatomy of Trump’s ap-peal? For openers, he stuck up forthen-candidate Ben Carson at a debatewhen the good doctor noted it had beenlong time between questions for him. “Thatshowed me he’ll have our backs.”
She admires his children, none of whomshow the slightest symptoms of “affluenza”— dopiness that comes from being an in-dulged child of privilege.
She thinks he’s right to demand tough-ness on border security and immigration,issues she considers pivotal, no matter howfar down the list they’ve ranked in primaryelection exit polls.
Graves also gives him credit for callingout international trade deals, and for push-ing allies to pony up for the cost of theirnational defense.
This being so very much not the place toargue the important nuances of either issue— Trump doesn’t do nuance anyway — let’sturn, instead, to what, in the final analysis,might have illuminated the smile under thatcap.
After eight years of a president who hastreated the country he leads like the title ofa turn-of-the-Millennium Broadway musical— “I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change”— arrayed against the prospect of at leastfour more entrenching years of his policies,Sandy Graves is finally aligned with DonaldTrump because “I believe [he] lovesAmerica.” Without hesitation or qualifica-tion.
And so she wears the hat. Happily.

When four people tripped andfell during Dade City’s ChurchStreet Christmas celebration
in 2000, the incident triggered an unexpect-ed outcome.
The strollers were enjoying a holidayouting when they stumbled across holesin the street where asphalt paving hadworn through to the brick street beneath.
The city’s director of public works, RonFerguson, reported at a January 2001 CityCommission meeting that no one was in-jured.
But, what to do about the holes in thestreet?
According to records obtained fromAngie Guy, Dade City’s city clerk, a consen-sus was reached.
The city’s historicpreservation advisoryboard recommend-ed that city crews“strip asphaltfrom ChurchAvenue” andmake repairswith salvagedbrick andnew brick, ifnecessary, “tosignificantly en-hance historicpreservation inDade City.”
The CityC o m m i s s i o nagreed to thebrick restoration“after consider-able discussionand on recom-mendation ofstaff.”
Removing theasphalt withoutdamaging thebricks wouldprove to be noeasy task, according to a St. PetersburgTimes report from some 16 years ago.
“With all the work that has to be donejust on a daily basis, we did not think wecould do it,” Ferguson told the newspaper.
On April 5, 2001, the city started a “pilotprogram” with five city employees, aBobcat Skill Loader, a Caterpillar backhoe,a 10-yard dump truck, and some impro-vised hand tools.
In his progress report to the CityCommission, Ferguson indicated that a 2-inch layer of asphalt had been cleared onChurch Avenue from Eighth Street to 17thStreet.
Work was done “after 9:30 a.m., toallow school traffic time to leave the area,”Ferguson’s report said.
Additional equipment was needed toclean “fine pieces of crushed asphalt anddirt” by using a tractor equipped with awater tank and the city’s street sweeper.
It cost a total of $4,133.78 to exposethe layer of red bricks that had been laid
more than 70 years ago. Each one of the bricks was from the
Southern Clay Manufacturing Company, inRobbins, Tennessee.
Ninety-six-year-old Stanley Burnsidelives near Church Avenue, which is theonly street in Pasco County designated anational historic site.
To him, the brick streets bring backmemories of a different era when peoplewere riding in Model-T Fords and WarrenG. Harding was the 29th President of theUnited States.
On a recent Sunday afternoon, Burnsideagreed to walk the two blocks from histownhome in downtown Dade City to thecorner of 12th Street and MeridianAvenue.
Standing at the same spot as he did in1927, he is photographed with Rodney B.Cox Elementary School over his rightshoulder.
“I was 7 years old, but I still rememberthem laying down the brick by hand,”Burnside recalled.
From Meridian Avenue heading north,the brickwork was laid without any mor-tar and was headed straight to what was
then the Dade City GrammarSchool, at the far end of
12th Street. Burnside often
walks past thissame corner onhis daily walks,which some-times giveshim time tothink aboutthe brickstreets in Dade
City. “You might
say they last for-ever,” saysBurnside, whocelebrated his96th birthday onMay 23.
Over theyears, maintainingthe brick streetshas posed itsshare of chal-lenges.
City ManagerBen Bolan de-scribed some ofthem in a 1988 in-
terview with The Tampa Tribune.Because of the difficulty in finding
skilled labor to do the maintenance work,Bolan recommended that Fifth Street and10th Street be repaved, due to sections ofthose brick streets being uneven, creating apotential hazard, if drivers didn’t slowdown.
But, the consensus of the CityCommission was the same then as it wasfor Church Avenue.
“(The Commission’s) general philosophyis that there will never be another brickstreet paved over in Dade City,” Bolan wasquoted by the newspaper 28 years ago.
And, to this day, there hasn’t been.

in this web,” Pashley said. “The story is writ-ten from all three points of view — thewife’s point of view as she discovers herhusband’s affair, from the husband’s point ofview as he tries to work his way out of themess he’s gotten himself into, and from themistress’ point of view — and the strugglesthat they go through during the course ofthe year the book takes place.
“It’s kind of a story of betrayal and heart-break, but it’s also a story of tremendoushope in light of very, very difficult circum-stances,” she added.
The author said the book’s title is alsovery relevant to the story, which readerswill eventually discover.
“As readers work their way through thenovel, they’ll have an ‘ah ha moment’ wherethey’ll understand why the title is what itis,” Pashley said.
“There’s a lot of symbolism in this book,a lot of deep layers, a story within a story.The title plays into the plot, but it also playsinto the turning point for my charactersand their journey and understanding thatwe’re all really important in this world, andwe all are worthy of being loved,” the au-thor added.
Pashley’s vision for the book camethrough a daydream several years ago, inwhat she described as a “really unique ex-perience.”
“Most writers maybe have to search fortheir inspiration from somewhere, but thisstory literally dropped in my mind like amovie,” she said. “The whole thing playedout from beginning to end — the settings,the characters, the plot, the twists, every-thing. I jotted all my notes down and stuckit in a drawer, and then a couple years later,in a moment of epiphany, I decided to trymy hand at writing a book, and I pulled thatold notebook out and the story had neverleft me.”
However, writing the book became a sig-nificant task for Pashley, who was juststarting the project when she was diag-nosed with Meniere’s disease, a disorder ofthe inner ear that causes vertigo.
“I had to work off and on with it,” saidPashley, who is now in remission.
“Looking at a computer is a major trig-ger, so I had a very hard time working forseveral years because of the period of timewhere I just couldn’t look at the light, so it
took an immense effort to get the draft fin-ished,” she explained.
After the book was awarded first placein the unpublished novels competition atthe 2014 Blue Ridge Writer’s Conference,Pashley figured she’d move forward withfully completing the novel, and publishingit.
“I wasn’t willing to put my name onsomething until I knew it was going to bethe best that I could make it, so I guessthat’s why I was patient and put the time into really learn the craft, and get a lot of feed-back early on from people in the industry,”Pashley explained.
“In the course of learning how to put to-gether a proper novel, you don’t just sitdown and write it. I attended many work-shops and conferences, and met witheditors all over the country.”
As she tours the country on book sign-ings and other speaking engagements,Pashley is finishing up a companion studyguide to go along with the novel, allowingbook clubs and Bible study groups to incor-porate it into their discussions.
Pashley says the companion guide,which is expected to be ready for order inJuly, will “really cultivate all the feelings andthe thoughts that (readers) are going tohave when they finish reading the book.”
As for future novels, Pashley already hasoutlined a sequel.
“I’ll hopefully be carving out some timefor that,” she said, adding, “I’m taking a tripto British Columbia for two weeks where Ican watch the bears and draft for the se-quel.”
Pashley and her husband lived in DadeCity from 1997 to 2009, until the family re-located to Nashville, Tennessee.
Before living in Dade City, the New Yorknative resided in Spring Hill, Florida, for 11years.
The family still owns their Dade Cityhome, Pashley said.
She thinks her Pasco ties should helpspread the visibility of the novel throughthe rest of the Sunshine State.
“I knew going into this that I wanted...tomake myself available to women’s groups,church groups, book clubs and bookstoresin Florida. I still do have a lot of connec-tions in the area,” she said. “It’s just kind ofgetting our feet wet. I hope to be back inthe Florida area, especially the Tampa Bayarea.
“This is just our first whirl,” Pashley said.
water features added to the park’s masterplan to accentuate Zephyrhills’ branding asthe “City of Pure Water.”
“We want to create this natural environ-ment of what a creek in ‘real Florida’ or‘natural Florida’ would look like...and returna portion of the park to its natural state,”Hamilton said, adding a children’s waterpark would be a nice addition, too.
The most popular topic, however, was theresurfacing of the park’s five tennis courts.
“The single most used thing in this parkis the tennis courts,” said Fred Hall, who livesin East Pasco. “There’s not a thing on any of(the image) boards relating to the tenniscourts. That’s the only thing I would use atthis point. That’s what’s keeping this parkalive is those tennis courts, and nobody evenaddresses that in this survey that they’redoing, which is sad.”
Hall added the courts are currently al-most unplayable due to the number of“lumps and cracks” that have popped upover time.
“We spend our money in this town,” hesaid. “If they get much worse, all the peoplethat are playing here, they’ll go spend alltheir money going someplace else.”
That’s what one Zephyrhills family al-ready does.
Brad Bricker said he regularly takes hisfour children to Common Ground Park inLakeland, referring to that park as a “destina-tion to go to.”
“Common Ground is such a fun park be-cause the adults are playing, the kids areplaying, there’s stuff where everybody wantsto get on the equipment and play,” Brickersaid. “Their tennis courts actually have a proshop and a place where they can actually
have tennis events. I see something like thathappening, where there’s actually tenniscompetitions happening and more new-age,modernized-type equipment.”
He continued, “(Zephyr Park) has tenniscourts, but there’s not really anything hap-pening with them in that sense. If there wasa stadium-style tennis court here, you couldbring in events...and have a park where peo-ple want to drive from other areas to cometo.”
Bricker added the park “definitely needs”some new features, whatever they may be.
“It is pretty much outdated,” he said.“Even the newer equipment they’ve put inover the years is kind of...fading and dilapi-dated.”
Another Zephyrhills resident, LaniPrilliman, is glad the city is finally gettingaround to improving the park. She said she’dlike to see to more law enforcement andlighting at night to curb suspicious activityshe’s witnessed.
“There’s been some issues in theevenings,” Prilliman said.
However, Prilliman sees the park’s long-term potential.
“It is a diamond in the rough,” she said.“The park just needs some updating andsome sprucing up. I’ve been here a longtime, and the park seems to not get much at-tention.”
While the CRA and park’s design teamwill consider the residents’ suggestions,Hamilton emphasized that a park with signif-icant amenities could attract hundreds ofpeople into Zephyrhills every day.
“I’m trying to do a great urban park andnot just a park for 20 people,” Hamilton said.
Hamilton said she plans to seek stategrants, corporate sponsorships and find outwhat kind of funding the city can provide, todetermine a budget for the master plan.
“It’s been an eyesore,” said Tim Hodes,president of the Plantation PalmsHomeowners Association. But, he added,“We’re embracing it and looking forward to itreopening.”
A low estimate on the cost to get the golfcourse ready would be about $800,000,Rochlin said.
With the rainy season around the corner,he added, “You have the window of opportu-nity. Now is the time to get it right.”
Place said social and golf membershipswill be available, with public play duringmost hours.
In addition, the more than 800 PlantationPalms’ residents will support the renovationsby purchasing social memberships for eachof the next five years. Plans also are to add a3,000-square-foot banquet room overlookingthe golf course. It will be available for wed-dings, meetings and other events.
Place said he expects to open a version ofMulligan’s Irish Pub at Plantation Palms, simi-lar to restaurants at other golf courses ownedby Ace Golf.
Plantation Palms’ golf course is regardedas one of the top courses in Tampa Bay, witha 4-star rating from Golf Digest, Place said inhis email.
Rochlin has been marketing the 156-acre
golf course for two years. It also has a drivingrange, clubhouse, restaurant and bar.
MJS Golf Group bought the property in2011 for about $2.1 million, financed by theNative American Bank of Denver. But, ownersMitchell Osceola, Jayson Ray and StevenMcDonald were plagued with recurring fi-nancial losses and debts.
The course shut down briefly in 2013,then reopened briefly, only to close for goodin May 2014.
Rocky Morgan of GSP Business Alliancestepped forward in 2015 to say he wouldbuy the course. But, Rochlin said Morgannever came through with money to financethe sale.
Because the mortgage holder – NativeAmerican Bank of Denver – serves NativeAmericans, the short sale had to be approvedby the U.S. Department of Justice.
Place has extensive experience in golfcourse and driving range management in theTampa Bay area.
His company, Ace Golf, owns and operatesCrescent Oaks and Wentworth golf clubs inTarpon Springs, and Pebble Creek in NewTampa. Place also has driving ranges inBrandon and Riverview.
Plantation Palms was an attractive acquisi-tion, Place said, because of its proximity tohis other golf courses and the huge growthon State Road 54.
“I think the right guy got it,” Rochlin said.

For Anthony Crocitto, winning games isimportant.
Saint Leo University’s new women’s bas-ketball coach hopes to be one of the topfour teams in the Sunshine State Conferencewithin four seasons.
To do that, the 20-year college-coachingveteran is on a mission to find high-level re-cruits — wherever they may live.
While he’s certainly looking for Florida-bred talent, he’s also searching far and wideto secure skilled players for the Division IIprogram.
By using this approach, there’s a chancehe’ll land an imposing post player fromTampa, a crafty point guard from New York,or maybe a sharpshooting forward fromEurope.
“We’re going to look internationally, lo-cally and nationally to find the best fits,”Crocitto said last week. “You’ve always gotto keep it open because you may get a callfrom Alaska, and you may get five calls local-ly, so you’ve just got to unturn every stone.
“Otherwise, you’re going to miss out onsomething,” he said.
Crocitto didn’t miss out on much in hisprevious coaching stop at New YorkInstitute of Technology (NYIT), leadingthem to a 26-9 record and an appearance inthe Division II East Regional Championshipgame.
That team featured players from all over,including New York and Tennessee, andEgypt and Greece.
However, it’s not just about finding ex-ceptional ballplayers, it’s also about findingcompatible pieces that gel together on the
court, the Lions coach said.When he’s assembling a team, he’s look-
ing for players with an intense desire to playand he’s considering the overall dynamicsof the team.
“I think when you recruit that and youdon’t have cliques, and you do your best tomaintain it as a family, you’re...not going tohave any wars within your program. I thinkthat’s how we were so successful at NYIT
— we were able to mesh all that to win,” hesaid.
“You’re not always going to recruit theplayers like we did at NYIT that are All-Americans,” he added, “but you canconsistently change the culture in how youact and how you hold yourself, the charac-ter you recruit, and the people thatsurround you.”
The coach said he’s not just recruiting
players. He’s going after Saint Leo alumni, aswell.
He’s trying to generate alumni supportfor a program that experienced a disastrous5-22 record last season, under Missy West, itsformer coach.
Crocitto wants to build the alumni baseof support a little more each year, notingthat graduates from the university may nothave previously received “a whole lot oflove, or even a phone call.”
The coach is so determined to bringalumni back into the fold that he and SaintLeo athletic director Francis X. Reidy plan tocall at least five to 10 alumni each week, be-ginning in July.
They intend to increase community out-reach, too.
One way to generate interest involvesscheduling athletic department functions atrestaurants from San Antonio to WesleyChapel, where fans and alumni can meetcoaches, ask questions and build relation-ships.
He believes this approach will eventuallygenerate more interest in his program, andmay lead to increased attendance at games.Attendance has been down for the pastthree years, dropping from an average of250 fans per game in the 2013-2014 seasonto an average of 220 fans per game last year.
Crocitto wants to build a relationshipwith fans that makes them “feel special.” Hewants them to feel “that they can comeback and watch practice, come to games,and be a part of receptions, and get out intothe community a little bit more.
“As you build your locker room, you tryto get to know people and that’s where I’mvery good at — networking and buildingsomething special,” the coach said.”
COURTESY OF SAINT LEO ATHLETICSNew Saint Leo women’s basketball coach Anthony Crocitto said he’ll look locally, nationallyand internationally to find recruits.

Coach casts wide net for quality recruits
By Kevin Weisskweiss@lakerlutznews.com
Truman Noble, an eighth-grader atMartinez Middle School, has qualified tocompeted at a national wrestling tourna-ment next month.
The wrestler, the son of Steinbrenner Highwrestling coach Paul Noble, will face off inthe USA Wrestling Schoolboy National Dualsin Indianapolis, from June 8 to June 12.
To take part in the prestigious tourna-ment, the 136-pounder first had to make theFlorida Schoolboy National Team roster.
He did that after winning his weight class(for his age group) at both the 2016 FatherDevine National Qualifier, and the Freestyleand Greco Roman State Championships inOsceola.
“It felt good, it was shocking,” Noble saidabout making the roster. “I’m excited to seewhat I can do (at nationals).”
Despite Noble’s recent success, his father,Paul, noted that his son “struggled for years”at the sport until he began flourishing dur-ing the last 12 to 18 months.
“He’s started to really turn the corner,”said Paul, who’s been coaching wrestling at
Steinbrenner High since the school’s open-ing in 2009.
“His skillset has always been pretty highas far as his technique, but getting thingsdone on the mat hasn’t always translatedfrom drills to being able to do it in a matchsituation. That’s just really kind of started tohappen in the last year to year in a half,” headded.
The high school coach attributes hisson’s recent triumphs on the mat to aheightened maturity and an increased com-mitment to becoming a more refinedwrestler. He noted that the middle-schoolertrains nearly every day.
The wrestler concurred. He said he hasimproved by “working hard and not givingup” when he loses.
Having a passion for the sport, combinedwith a competitor’s mentality, doesn’t hurt,either.
“It’s just fun,” said Truman, who’s beenwrestling since third grade. “I like to com-pete at anything, just like if it’s backyardfootball or something.”
His son shows immense potential, butPaul noted that Truman will likely be facingolder wrestlers when he enters Steinbrenner
High because of his weight class.Many gifted ninth-graders competed in
the 106-pound or 113-pound weight class,but Truman is competing at a heavierweight.
That means there will be a steeper learn-ing curve in order to be successful, the highschool coach explained.
“He’s going to come in at 132 or 138(pounds), and those kids are going to be jun-iors or seniors in high school. It’s going totake more of an effort to get to where hewants to be,” Paul said.
That work starts with hitting the weightroom extensively this summer.
“I think his technique is fine, he’ll justhave to continually get stronger and beready for kids that are going to try to get himoff of his game, get him out of his comfortzone — that’s what they’ll try to do to fresh-men,” Truman’s father explained. “Somejuniors and seniors don’t wrestle all yearlong, so they get kids that they know areprobably more skilled than they are...andthey try to beat them just with their physicalprowess.
“If he gets stronger, he’ll be better,” hesaid.
Truman agrees, but said, “it definitelyhelps” to have a father that can continue todevelop his wrestling skillset. He’s also excit-ed to work with his dad more frequentlyonce he joins the Steinbrenner Highwrestling team.
Paul is “excited” too, but acknowledgesthat of the two, Truman is likely more enthu-siastic about the future father-son wrestlingscenario at Steinbrenner High.
“It’s nerve-wracking a little bit,” Paul ac-knowledged. “It’s a little different when it’syour kid, but we’re looking forward to it.”

Mike McDonald, of Trinity, was one of the performers at the Duck Derby held behind Hungry Harry’s Bar FamilyBar-B-Que on U.S. 41. Held for the first time in Land O’ Lakes, it is expected to be an annual event.

The inflatable Rotary International sign is reflected in the sunglasses of Geoff Kranich, a member of the RotaryClub of Trinity. Kranich helped Erin Meyer, president of the Wesley Chapel Rotary, install the inflatable sign atthe entrance to the Duck Derby.
The lane of ducks got awfully crowded as theyfloat their way down the gauntlet-like path tothe neighboring dock.
FRED BELLET/PHOTOSThe rubber ducks, numbered on their underside, were adopted through donations. The owner of the duck thatfloated to first-place also won a bonus of $2,500. Some 68 prizes were awarded to the first ducks that floated tothe finish line, out of the field of more than 2,000.
By Kathy Steeleksteele@lakerlutznews.com
The crowd cheered. Theloudspeaker broadcasta quacking-good tune -
“Disco, Disco Duck.”And, with a quick dumping of
about 2,000 rubber ducks intoLake Padgett, the flock of ducksfloated off, with a push from ahigh-pressure fire hose squirtedinto the water.
Prizes went to donors whoseducks were among the first 68 tohit the finish line. But, the truewinners were the community or-ganizations that will receivedonations from the Rotary Club ofWesley Chapel Noon.
More than 100 people came tothe service club’s Duck Derby onMay 21. Held for the first time thisyear, it is intended to become anannual event.
The all-day affair brought outfamilies that shared shady spotson the lawn behind HungryHarry’s Family Bar-B-Que, off LandO’ Lakes Boulevard.
They enjoyed live music anddined from a buffet of HungryHarry’s barbecue, beans, chicken,and macaroni and cheese.
Ducks could be adopted atprices ranging from $5 for a singleduck to $100 for a flock of 25.
Marcey Knight, 16, and AbriWoods, 17, worked at a drinktable, taking tickets and handingout cool refreshments.
The Wiregrass Ranch HighSchool students are members ofInteract, a school-sponsored clubthat provides opportunities forcommunity service.
Children bounced in the boun-cy house, slid down an inflatedslide or played carnival-like gamesfor prizes.
Sales of the rubber ducks, bar-becue and drinks went towardcommunity projects, organizationsor student scholarships.
“We support a variety of chari-ties every year,” said Erin Meyer,club president.
Local and international proj-ects and groups that receive theclub’s donations include PascoEducation Foundation, EverydayBlessings, Farmworkers Self-Help,Habitat for Humanity, SunriseWomen’s Shelter and installationof water filters in third-worldcountries.
In all, 68 prizes were handedout including a $2,500 grand prizeto Brian and Isabelle Dunleavy.Other prizes included a fishing
trip for five with a charter boatcaptain, two nights at SaddlebrookResort, a $250 certificate for auto-mobile repairs from TWAFirestone, a wine basket, petgrooming, and bowling gamesfrom Royal Lanes.
Derby sponsors included FunServices of Land O’ Lakes, Sam’sClub, Cash 4 Gold, The Laker/LutzNews, and Hungry Harry’s FamilyBar-B-Que.
The Wesley Chapel Rotary ClubNoon hosts fundraising events an-nually to aid local communityorganizations or projects. The duckderby is one that is expected to be-come a yearly tradition.
“Things like this allow us tohave fellowship as a club and alsoto give back to the community,”said Kelly Mothershead, past presi-dent of the club.
Events like the duck derby cre-ate a presence in the community,said Rebecca Smith, chairwomanof the club’s foundation.
“We kind of touch everybody,and the more the merrier,” Smithsaid.
The Webelos of Cub ScoutPack No. 149 in Wesley Chapelhelped build the duck derbycourse. They practiced their skillsin tying square knots to link to-gether the colorful noodles thatmarked the course’s boundaries.
“It was fun,” said 6-year-oldAndrew Holliday.
His family bought a few ducksthe day of the race, and enjoyed apicnic lunch.
“We just wanted to see what itwas like,” said Brian Holliday,Andrew’s father.
Brother Connor, 5, sat in alawn chair, with a plate piled highwith his favorite food - mac n’cheese.
At the shoreline, childrenwaded into the lake, splashing andtossing small pebbles into thewater. Or, they wandered over toclimb inside the cab of the firetruck parked nearby. PascoCounty Fire Rescue provided thehose and water to get the duckderby moving along.
At the derby’s finish line, clubmembers plucked the winningducks from the water and poppedthem into plastic bags for identifi-cation. Each duck had a numberprinted on its belly.
The disco dance tune “Disco,Disco, Duck” kept the festivitiesbouncing along.
“Wasn’t that adorable?” saidSmith, who is already ready to joinin the fun next year.

ExceptionalHeart Care
A heart attack is one of the most deadly types of cardiac events. It occurs when
the blood supply to the heart is blocked for a prolonged period of time. The best
treatment is having a percutaneous coronary intervention within 90 minutes of
first receiving care from emergency medical personnel. So it’s important to get to
the closest hospital specializing in heart care as fast as possible.
St. Joseph’s Hospital-North has a specially trained team on hand, 24 hours a day,
seven days a week, to treat patients having a heart attack. Our experienced cardiac
and interventional team takes care of all your heart care needs, from diagnosis to
surgery to rehabilitation.
