Cheval Cares 5K battles pediatric cancer By Michael Murillo

that the cure rate for her type of leukemia was greater than 90 percent,” Peck explained. “Seeing the other children in the hospital, their diagnoses were a lot more devastating. We had everything quickly put in perspective for us. All of a sudden, we felt fortunate.” Callie is now well past her treatments. Her chemotherapy ended last April, and she now just has monthly blood tests to check for recurrences or side effects. But her family is still active in the community’s 5K event. The Fourth Annual Cheval Cares 5K will be on Sept. 26 at 8 a.m., at the Cheval Athletic Club, 4142 Cheval Blvd., in Lutz. Callie, now 6, will be part of the ribboncutting ceremony to begin the race, while her brothers, Gavin and Cole, and her parents,Amber and Scott, participate in the 5K. Lindsay Whitney helped create the 5K and used to work at the Pediatric Cancer Foundation. The Cheval resident still serves

When the Peck family joined the Cheval Athletic Club, their daughter Callie was 2. They took an immediate interest in the community’s Cheval Cares 5K event to benefit the Pediatric Cancer Foundation. It wasn’t just a good cause. It was personal. “When we joined there a few years back, (Callie) was bald. It was no surprise to anybody that she had cancer,” recalled Callie’s mother, Amber Peck. Diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, Callie had to endure frequent trips to hospitals, spinal taps and surgeries. For lengthy periods, she endured chemotherapy treatments daily. Just a toddler, she received treatment for more than two years. And despite the challenges, the Pecks consider themselves PHOTOS COURTESY OF VIVIDIVITY fortunate. For the Peck family— Amber, Scott, Gavin, “We were actually very lucky in the fact Cole and Callie — the 5K is an annual tradition.

Carrollwood Day School may soon have home-field advantage By Michael Murillo

mmurillo@lakerlutznews.com

Phase II of Carrollwood Day School’s Patriot Pride campaign includes a multipurpose sports complex on the private school’s campus at 1515 W. Bearss Ave., in Tampa. It includes space for football, baseball and soccer games, and will allow the school’s athletic teams to finally play home games at home. It will also cost a couple million dollars. The school has raised about 25 percent of that cost. And while $500,000 is a significant number, it still leaves a lot of ground to cover. Thanks to a $1 million matching pledge by Todd and Kari Wagner — who have children attending the school — the home fields are very close to becoming a reality. “It’s a game-changer for Carrollwood Day School,” said Head of School Ryan Kelly.“It’s the largest donation that we have ever received. And it just is going to allow us to do something that I’ve dreamt of doing, and that is having our own sports complex.” Kelly made the announcement about the donation at the football team’s home game on Aug. 28 against Admiral Farragut. Like other sports at Carrollwood Day School, the home football games aren’t actually played at home. They play football at Skyway in Tampa, baseball at Citrus Park and soccer on a leased parcel of land. That’s all going to change by next season, according to Kelly. That $500,000 now

puts Carrollwood Day School halfway to accessing the $1 million match and funding the complex. When it’s finished, the complex will include turf fields that will be used for outdoor sports, dugouts and batting cages for baseball, a press box, bleachers that will seat 600 to 1,000 fans and a concession area. High school football, baseball and soccer are the primary beneficiaries, but the complex also will be used by the middle-schoolers, physical education activities and possibly lacrosse, at some point. That accessibility will be a dramatic

change from what the school deals with today, and Kelly is well aware of the challenges and hard work that goes into making it work. “The athletic director, Baker Mabry, does an outstanding job. But it is a nightmare,” Kelly said, describing the scheduling and logistics of constantly going off-site for games and practices. “We cannot wait until we don’t have to do that any longer,” Kelly added. They won’t have to wait long. With current cash on hand and the pledge secured, See HOME-FIELD, page 13A

Jewish community reflects, atones on Yom Kippur By Michael Murillo

mmurillo@lakerlutznews.com

Congregation Mekor Shalom, 14005A N. Dale Mabry Highway, has grown to more than 100 households since it was founded a little more than two years ago. Members come from Lutz, from Land O’ Lakes, from Wesley Chapel, from Zephyrhills, and many other parts of Tampa Bay. And most of those households, if not all, will be stopping in on Wednesday, during the one time on the calendar where everyone comes together. “I call it tax season for clergy,” said Hazzan Jodi Sered-Lever. As Hazzan, she’s Mekor Shalom’s clergy who leads them in prayer. She’s also their founding spiritual leader. The occasion is Yom Kippur, the Jewish Day of Atonement, which is Sept. 23 this year. Part of the High Holy Days, along with Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, it’s considered by many to be the most significant date on the Jewish calendar. While it’s a time for reflection and forgiveness, it’s definitely not a time for judging the congregation at Mekor Shalom. Sered-Lever knows the seats will be filled more than during the weekly Sabbath services on Friday nights and Saturday mornings. Whether it’s a treasured family tradition or a sense of obligation to participate in the High Holidays, many members who don’t attend services regularly are looking for a seat at Yom Kippur. And that’s fine for Sered-Lever. Whether someone attends every weekend, or hasn’t been there since the last Yom Kippur service, she wants everyone to feel welcomed and valued. “I don’t use guilt in any of my religious practices. I meet people where they’re at,” she said. “I’m glad to see you when you’re here. I’m glad to have your involvement; I’m glad to have your gifts. Because each person’s gifts are appreciated, and they’re not just monetary, and they’re not just numbers showing up.” Those who do attend will arrive in a different state than usual. Yom Kippur observers fast from the previous sundown until that day’s sundown (with medical exceptions), refrain from working or wearing leather shoes, do not bathe and do not anoint themselves in perfume or cologne. They forego many daily comforts and rituals in order to focus more on asking for forgiveness, not only to God, but to other people their actions may have affected over the past year. Much of the day is spent in prayer and reflection. And they’ll not only pray, but hear the Hazzan speak on a special topic. She didn’t reveal this year’s subject, but previously

she’s focused on the concept of a proper apology. Instead of a half-hearted “I’m sorry you feel that way” statement, she encouraged her congregation to take ownership in their apologies, and to deliver them with authenticity. Whether they come to pray on Yom Kippur out of a sense of tradition once a year, or always attend weekly services, Sered-Lever wants every member to get the most out of the experience. She believes that true reflection on actions and behaviors, and an earnest desire to improve oneself, can have great benefits for an individual even after Yom Kippur ends. “You get out of it what you put into it,” Sered-Lever said. “If you take this time and really use it for this purpose, you have the greatest chance of being able to evolve as a person, and develop your relationships and connections, and be the best person you can be.” While it might be the one time of year that every seat is filled (during some busy times, events might also be held at the nearby Carrollwood Country Club), Sered-Lever

Wildlife corridors on hold, again By Kathy Steele

ksteele@lakerlutznews.com

A plan to establish and protect wildlife corridors met another delay in its 15-year journey from a lawsuit settlement to approval from the Pasco County Commission. During a workshop on Sept. 15, Pasco County commissioners opted to forego upcoming public hearings in October and November. The hearings were for a proposed ordinance to establish criteria and regulations for seven proposed wildlife corridors that, in part, would pass through private lands. Instead, the matter will go back to the county’s Local Planning Agency for more discussion. The agency’s members previously tabled the matter without making a recommendation to the Pasco County commission on the ordinance. No new date for the agenda item was scheduled. Also, county officials plan to schedule a fifth public workshop to get more input on the ordinance. Another workshop for commissioners also will be scheduled to provide additional information including maintenance costs for the corridors and ballpark figures on the cost of choosing to establish the corridors through eminent domain rather than the ordinance. The maze of hearings and workshops is only the latest for a hot-potato issue that has been tossed around by several Pasco County commissions since a lawsuit settlement in 2000. “We are eager to come to a resolution on this,” said Matt Armstrong, Pasco’s executive planner for the Long Range Planning Group. “We don’t want it to be hanging around there another 15 years.” The sticking point is how to strike a balance between conservation and property rights, including compensation for land acquired by the county for the corridors. The proposed ordinance would be applied only if a landowner sought to rezone property for land uses of greater density or intensity, and had a corridor within the property’s boundaries. In such cases, the county and landowner would provide property appraisals and reach agreement on a sales price through negotiation. Landowners also would have appeal rights before the Development Review Committee. The county estimates a need for about 7,000 acres to create the wildlife corridors. Subtracting land the county already owns

and some undevelopable wetlands, county officials say only about 2,500 acres would be regulated through the ordinance. The corridors in central Pasco would link current and proposed development projects at Starkey Ranch, Crossbar, Connerton and Cypress Creek. However, Pasco County Commissioner Mike Moore said “everyday average citizens” have concerns about what could happen to their property. “Their concern is that I’m not going to be allowed to do what I need to survive, to pay my bills,” he said. “They can’t grow oranges. They can’t grow citrus. I’m just not ready to go full force on this.” The mandate to create the wildlife corridors – also known as critical linkages – comes from a lawsuit filed in the late 1990s that challenged the county’s land use plan. The suit centered on the then-proposed development of the Oakstead subdivision, off State Road 54. Oakstead went forward, but the settlement agreement required the county to adopt conservation measures including the wildlife corridors. A task force recommended creation of the county’s Environmental Lands Acquisition and Management Program, also known as ELAMP. But ELAMP, which is a voluntary system of acquiring land, isn’t sufficient on its own to protect the wildlife corridors, said David Armstrong, assistant county attorney. If commissioners choose not to adopt the ordinance, acquiring land through eminent domain is the next option, he said. “It’s more expensive,”Armstrong said. A guesstimate on eminent domain costs can be provided to commissioners, said Pasco County Administrator Michele Baker. She also noted that unless the county owned easements through private land, the corridors would not be open to the general public for recreation. If anyone wanted to try bicycling the corridors, the answer would have to be ‘No you can’t. It’s still private property,’ ” Baker said. About $36 million from the Penny for Pasco revenues were set aside to purchase conservation land, with about $17 million invested to date. The ELAMP program has been extended another 10 years, and funds could be used to purchase other properties. A decision on the ordinance is critical, especially given the renewed burst of development in Pasco County,Armstrong added. “Once it develops, it’s not coming back.”

WE’VE MOVED!

11 Critical home inspection traps to be aware of weeks before listing your Pasco County home for sale Land o Lakes/Lutz - According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you shoul know about them before you list your home for sale. Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items could cost you dearly in terms of repair. That's why it's critical that you read this report before you list your home. If you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale or, worse,

turn prospective buyers away altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable pre-inspection yourself if you know what you're looking for, and knowing what you're looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones. To help homesellers deal with this issue before their homes are listed, a free report entitled "11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection" has been compiled which explains the issues involved. To hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report call toll-free 1-800-245-0869 and enter 1003. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Cash donations are used to purchase needed hygiene and related items. Donations of school supplies, clothing and personal care items are given, in conjunction with the Pasco County School District, directly to homeless students who are in need. For each $5 raised, the corps assembles a hygiene kit for one child. A total of $6,924.93 in cash, clothing and supplies recently was raised. At the presentation were, back row from left, Tom Bailey, Jim Gardner, Bob Krobatch and Barry White.

Hispanic Heritage contest seeks entries The New Tampa Regional Library is seeking entries for the Hispanic Heritage Art contest. Each year, the Hillsborough County Public Library system celebrates Hispanic Heritage month with its popular bookmark and poster contests. Last year, more than 1,000 bookmarks and almost 200 posters were entered. Eight contestants then were awarded prizes for first place and second place, based upon the caliber of their work. The contest is open to any Hillsborough County student. Winners will have their work appear on a Hillsborough Area Regional Transit (HART) bus. Winning entries also will receive professionally printed posters and bookmarks. There are no specific criteria or guidelines that the contestants must follow. The judges choose finalists based on what is most visually appealing. They look at the originality across the spectrum and at what really pops out. Last year's contests brought in a huge audience, which pleased the contestants and families that took part in the event. School specialist, Dana Warner, expects the same high turnout and positive reaction this year. Participants may pick up an entry form at any library branch or from the library's website at HCPLC.org. Entries are due no later than Sept. 30. —Compiled by Taylor Zack, intern for The Laker/Lutz News

Brenda Connolly had suffered from migraine headaches for 20 years. It wasn’t until she began seeing Pam at Surgical Alternative that she found a treatment that stopped the pain— and the headaches — from reoccurring. “Pam is a miracle worker. I no longer need prescription drugs or chiropractic treatments,” said Brenda, a New Brenda Connolly Tampa resident. No migraines also mean Brenda can focus more on triathlete training. “I enjoy Ironman competitions, and Pam keeps my body moving and on the road.” MA 60639 MA 26378/MM27542 MA 0007222

CHEVAL, from page 1A as event director for the event, which raised around $25,000 last year. Her time at the foundation put her in close touch with families going through the emotional challenges of childhood cancer. “It’s been a big passion of mine, knowing the families that have been affected and being part of their lives,”Whitney said.“I’ve been on many hospital visits and funerals, but also end-of-chemotherapy parties, graduation parties and birthday parties.” She hopes the money raised for the Pediatric Cancer Foundation’s research will lead to more of the happier occasions.The foundation focuses on research, fast-tracking treatments and launching clinical trials in the hopes of developing effective options quickly. Speeding up the process of finding effective treatments helps with more than just the obvious health concerns. Families dealing with childhood cancer face other stresses and challenges the public might not consider,Whitney said. So much time is spent on appointments and treatments that parents sometimes have to quit their jobs to manage care properly. That adds financial and emotional strain to an already difficult process. The race itself has a cap of 450 runners

Hundreds of walkers take part in the Cheval Cares 5K each year. They hope to raise around $30,000 at this year’s event and related fundraisers.

due to the logistics of having the event at Cheval. So, they’ve come up with some new ways to raise money. On Sept. 23, an Italian buffet dinner will be served at the Cheval Golf and Country Club, 4312 Cheval Blvd., from 5 p.m. until 9 p.m.The cost is $16.99 for adults, with $5 of that amount going to Cheval Cares. The event has set a goal of nearly

$30,000 for this year,Whitney said.And, she hopes they’ll reach both their runner cap and fundraising goal, because childhood cancer is something that thousands of families face each year. According to the American Childhood Cancer Organization, nearly 16,000 people between the ages of birth and 19 years old are diagnosed with cancer in the United States each year. One in every 285 people

HOME-FIELD, from page 1A Kelly expects to see the project started in December and to be completed as early as late spring of 2016. If that timetable holds, next year’s home games will be at the new complex. Todd Wagner, along with fellow entrepreneur Mark Cuban, founded Broadcast.com, a pioneer Internet radio company that was purchased by Yahoo! in 1999. He and Cuban also co-own the media group 2929 Entertainment. Kelly said he laid out his vision for the school to the Wagners, and being down-toearth people, they were receptive and eager to help. For him, the hard part was making the public announcement once the deal was done. “To be honest, I was probably more nervous about that than meeting with the Wagners,” Kelly explained. “Just because I knew it was such a big announcement for the school, and I really wanted to make sure people were excited.” When he took the field at halftime with a row of cheerleaders behind him, his words were met with plenty of excitement and

will be diagnosed with cancer before age 20. And cancer isn’t picky about who it attacks,Whitney said. “That’s the thing that we always say: Cancer knows no bounds in terms of money, ethnicity, race, gender, whatever it is. It doesn’t seem to matter,” she said. The annual 5K race matters to many people in Cheval and in the surrounding areas, including the Pecks. While Callie participates every year, Amber would love to see her join the rest of the family and actually take part in the 5K at a future event. “The day that she’s actually running will be very meaningful for us,” she said. The cost for the race is $30 for adults, and $20 for children 12 and younger. Each participant receives a T-shirt and goodie bag. Registration for the race is available on the website through Sept. 24. After that, those not living in Cheval can register in person at the Cheval Athletic Club on Sept. 25 from 3 p.m. until 8 p.m. On the day of the race, registration is only open to Cheval residents, but donations can still be made on the website. The 5K event also will include an activity area for children, with a bounce house, face painting and balloon animals. For more information, visit ChevalCares5K.com, or email chevalcares@gmail.com.

loud applause from fans.And, in perhaps another good sign, Kelly’s Patriots won the game, 22-18. They’re currently 3-0 on the season. The Phase II field project will get underway while Phase I is still under construction.The first project, a $3.5 gymnasium and facility, is currently on schedule and should be completed by early March of next year. It will include space for the athletic director, a weight room, three volleyball courts, two basketball courts and seating for 500 fans. There’s also the business of raising the final $500,000 for Phase II, and Kelly is very confident about the school’s prospects in that area. Kelly said the Wagners’ gift will encourage other families to be involved, and he expects to see increased interest in others being part of the project. For now, entering his eighth year at Carrollwood Day School and third in the role of head of school, Kelly can finally look forward to a true home-field advantage for his teams next year. “It’s outstanding. It’s even hard to put into words how exciting it is,” he said.

Record-setting start for Steinbrenner football By Michael Murillo

Steinbrenner Warriors 2015 remaining schedule

mmurillo@lakerlutznews.com

The Steinbrenner High School coaching staff knew its team was special when it defeated Riverview High School by a 38-17 margin on Sept. 18. That gave the Warriors a 4-0 start for the first time in school history, and eclipsed the team’s win total from last year’s entire season, when it won just three games. But coaches also knew the team was special when it defeated Chamberlain on Sept. 11 to go 3-0. And, the week before, when the team defeated Blake High School to go 2-0. The team had never done those things before, either. In fact, it became the first varsity team at the school to even start 1-0 with an opening win against Gaither High School. (The team’s first victory in its inaugural season in 2009 counted as a junior varsity victory). Head coach Andres Perez-Reinaldo had an inkling about their potential a lot earlier than the start of the regular season. In fact, the realization dawned on him late last year. “I had a good feeling last December,” he recalled. “We were planning on starting our off-season conditioning in January. I had a group of these seniors come up to me and say ‘Hey coach, we want to start now, in December.’ When those kids do that and take that kind of initiative, that lets you know you have a special thing going on.” If the team has been special, its defense has been spectacular. The defense gave up 17 to Riverview and allowed 10 points to Chamberlain, but previous outings were even better. Neither Blake (31-0) nor Gaither (13-0) put up any points against the Warriors.

Sept. 25 at Riverview, 7:30 p.m. Oct. 2 vs. Manatee, 7:30 p.m. Oct. 9 at Newsome, 7:30 p.m. Oct. 16 vs. Palm Harbor University, 7:30 p.m. Oct. 23 at Alonso, 7:30 p.m. Nov. 6 at Berkeley Prep, 7 p.m.

MICHAEL MURILLO/STAFF PHOTO

Steinbrenner head coach Andres Perez-Reinaldo talks with linebacker Tyler Mirabella at practice. The defense has helped lead the Warriors to a 4-0 record.

The coach admits that a stifling defense is a big key to the team’s success and keeping opponents frustrated. “Our defense right now is the heart and soul of the team,” he said. “If they (opponents) can’t score, they can’t win.” It’s a philosophy that resonates with the players, and gets repeated frequently. “As the defense we knew that we were going to really be the glue of the team. If they don’t score, they’re not going to win,”

said middle linebacker Patrick Lukert in a separate interview. The 6-foot-2-inch, 210-pound senior has helped the team off to its impressive start, but he’s not surprised. He expected to see scoreboard success after watching the players come together and focus before the games started. He just thought it would happen with a different quarterback.

WHARTON’S WILDCATS KEEP WINNING IN VOLLEYBALL

Preseason Classic, meaning backup Colin Wray had to step in with little notice and perform. He’s led the team to an undefeated record, the most wins in one season since 2012 and an opportunity to think about the school’s first-ever playoff berth. Again, Lukert said he isn’t surprised. “We have confidence in Colin. Colin’s been practicing just like Cason has. Since last December he’s been working out. We knew he was going to be all right,” he said. The coach credits the entire offense for helping pick up the slack with a new quarterback behind center. “Those guys, that wide receiver corps and offensive line and running backs have just rallied around our quarterback position, making him the best that he can (be). And that support has been huge for him,” PerezReinaldo said. A strong start has created a lot of optimism and excitement, and the coach said it’s a product of athletes taking classwork seriously and buying into the program. It’s a lot of hard work, but after coaching for about 10 years (this is his fourth season at Steinbrenner), Perez-Reinaldo said it’s still fun. “Friday nights. There’s nothing like it,” he said.

The Red Team was one of Senior Sports’ softball teams. Now known as North Tampa Bay Senior Softball, the group will begin its fourth year of play next month with at least four teams.

Senior softball league to host tryouts Sept. 25 Senior Sports is starting a new season with a new name. North Tampa Bay Senior Softball, a coed organization for 60-and-older participants, will begin its fourth season on Oct. 2. Before that, player tryouts will continue on Sept. 25 at 9 a.m. All players will be placed on a team, but the hitting, running and catching drills will give coaches an idea of who to select first. The tryouts and regular season games will take place at the Land O’ Lakes Recreation Complex, 3032 Collier Parkway in Land O’ Lakes.

Wharton High School’s volleyball team hasn’t had a losing record since 2009. And 11 games into the season, that streak looks safe for another year. With a 3-1 victory over Plant High School on Sept. 16, the Wildcats pushed their record to 10-1 and avenged their sole loss just a few days earlier to the same team. The team is 20 in Class 7A-8 and has lost just four games total over the course of the season so far.

Wildlife expeditions reveal Florida’s wild side By Kathy Steele

ksteele@lakerlutznews.com

otorists zipping along Interstate 4 between Tampa and Orlando can’t see from their ribbon of asphalt how close they are to the wild side of Florida. But the Green Swamp is all around. Often called the “liquid heart” of the state, the swamp is headwaters for four major rivers: Peace, Withlacoochee, Ocklawaha and Hillsborough. Natural habitat, hiking trails, blueways and wildlife corridors spread across Polk, Lake, Sumter, Hernando and Pasco counties. “This is wild Florida history in plain site,” said Carlton Ward Jr., a conservation photojournalist whose photographic art captures the beauty of the state’s wild side and its Cracker history of cowboys and ranches. On Sept. 15, more than 100 people filled the Selby Auditorium on the campus of Saint Leo University for a presentation on the Florida Wildlife Corridor Expeditions, in 2012 and 2015. Saint Leo’s School of Arts and Sciences, departments of Language Studies and the Arts, and Mathematics and Science sponsored the event. “He is a very accomplished speaker, combining words and pictures that allow us to hear clearly the importance of conservation,” said Mary Spoto, the dean of Arts and Sciences. “It’s something good for our students to hear and also the public.” The first expedition of 1,000 miles in 100 days traversed peninsular Florida from the Everglades National Park to the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge in southern Georgia. The most recent expedition of 1,000 miles in 70 days began in January, following a path from central Florida, across the Panhandle to Alabama, ending at the Gulf Island National Seashore. Along the way

“trail mixers” were held to invite the public to join in the trek. The goal is to bring awareness about the need to protect and connect Florida’s rural lands, its waterways and the natural paths to habitats traveled by Florida’s diverse wildlife, including the Florida black bear and the Florida panther. Ward sees his photographs as a way to connect art’s inspiration with science’s knowledge. He collaborated with bear biologist Joe Guthrie and environmentalist Mallory Lykes Dimmitt on the “Florida Wildlife Expedition Corridor,” a book chronicling the 2012 expedition. A second book on the 2015 expedition will be published in November. “I’ve always had a connection to conservation,” Ward said. But he didn’t think of Florida first as his focus. Early on the 10th day of the expedition, Carlton Ward Jr., set up his camera on shore and paddled As a graduate student, he traveled along the Chassahowitzka River. on the first of nine trips to central and western Africa. But each time he came home, he noticed Florida’s changing to what should be natural habilandscape. tat for bears. “There was a part of Florida that I knew But Ward said, “That bear was missing,”Ward said. couldn’t find a safe path to get He began photographically to tell the there.” story of Florida’s conservation through its Instead, it retreated southcattle ranches, handed down through gener- ward somewhere near Fort ations.
