Singers will also present another performance later that evening as the anchor ensemble of the National Youth Chorus.

Landrum announced today the promotion of Mandy Resmondo to Senior Vice President, People and Talent.

Resmondo’s role uniquely spans both internal and external impact. She will guide Landrum’s people strategy, including culture, leadership development and workforce planning, while also maintaining responsibility for the execution and performance of the firm’s recruiting and talent delivery teams. In addition, she will continue partnering directly with clients on talent consulting, helping organizations address hiring, retention and leadership needs in a rapidly changing labor market.

“Mandy understands both sides of the talent equation better than most,” said Britt Landrum, III. “She leads our internal people strategy while staying deeply connected to our clients and the realities they face. That perspective makes her an invaluable leader for our team and our clients.”

Resmondo is a frequent speaker and advisor to executive and HR audiences on topics including leadership readiness, workforce strategy and the future of work. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from the University of West Florida and remains actively involved in initiatives focused on advancing human capital strategy.

About Landrum

The University of West Florida has been recognized as a gold-level University in the large public school category in the annual Military Friendly® Schools list for 2026-2027. UWF earned the gold distinction for success in helping veterans make the transition from the military to school and, ultimately, rewarding civilian careers. As the eighth time receiving this designation, UWF displays a consistent dedication to military students. The University was also designated as a Military Spouse Friendly® School.

The University of West Florida has been recognized as a gold-level university in the large public school category in the annual Military Friendly® Schools list for 2026-2027. UWF earned the gold distinction for success in helping veterans make the transition from the military to school and, ultimately, rewarding civilian careers. As the eighth time receiving this designation, UWF displays a consistent dedication to military students. The University was also designated as a Military Spouse Friendly® School.

“At the University of West Florida, we take pride in achieving this distinction each and every year,” said UWF President Manny Diaz Jr. “Our military students and families are the foundation of the University, and we are proud to serve them. Our hope is to continue pursuing this excellence, giving our military students the best education and support that allows them to excel in their careers.”

Institutions earning the Military Friendly® School designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. Methodology, criteria and weightings were determined by Viqtory with input from the Military Friendly® Advi -

sory Council of independent leaders in the higher education and military recruitment community. Final ratings were determined by combining the institution’s survey scores with the assessment of the institution’s ability to meet thresholds for student retention, graduation, job placement, loan repayment, persistence (degree advancement or transfer) and loan default rates for all students and, specifically, for student veterans.

Last August, UWF launched the newly formed Office of Military Services. This office allows for the University to streamline support for military affiliated students by uniting the University’s Army and Air Force ROTC programs and the Military and Veteran Resource Center under the Aylstock, Witkin, Kreis and Overholtz Center for Leadership.

Lori Milkeris, director of the UWF Military & Veterans Resource Center, is proud to work at an institution that remains deeply committed to serving military members and their families.

“As an Air Force veteran, I feel especially fortunate to continue serving in this capacity, and I truly appreciate the dedication and support of our faculty and staff at UWF who share this commitment,” Milkeris said. “Being recognized as Military Friendly for another year is not something we specifically plan for — we simply remain focused on doing our work well, and the designation is a reflection of that commitment. Being part of a team that genuinely cares about strengthening our community as a whole is incredibly meaningful. When a veteran or their family member earns a degree, they are not only investing in their own future — they become a stronger asset to their community and a powerful example of resilience, leadership and service.” UWF AGAIN RECOGNIZED

With more than 20 years of experience in staffing, recruiting and talent strategy, Resmondo is known for connecting talent decisions to business outcomes. She has built and led high-performing recruiting teams, advised executive leaders through workforce transformation and helped organizations strengthen leadership pipelines and organizational effectiveness.

UWF STUDENTS PLACE FOURTH

UWF finance students placed fourth in the Bond Fund category at the 2026 QGAME Global Student-Managed Funds Portfolio Competition. Held at Quinnipiac University, this competition recognizes students on a global level for their excellence in communicating fund history and investment strategy. Along with their placement in the Bond Fund, UWF students also placed sixth in the Small Fund and ninth in the Growth Fund categories.

"We are encouraged by these strong rankings across three asset categories,” said Dr. K.C. Ma, Mary Ball Washington/Switzer Brothers endowed professor of finance in UWF’s Lewis Bear Jr. College of Business. “As always, we sincerely appreciate the UWF Foundation and our donors for providing the initial capital that enables our students to manage real portfolios."

Over the past five years, UWF students have managed three live, real-money stock and bond portfolios. Out of a pool of approximately 700 university student-managed fund programs worldwide, only the 135 topperforming universities competed in this year's competition.

“I was a student in Dr. Ma’s Security Analysis and Portfolio Management class last semester, where I had the opportunity to gain real-world experience through the stock report we built and by serving as a trustee of the funds,” said Arthur Lima d’El-Rei Fraga, a senior finance and accounting student who

attended this year’s QGAME on behalf of his class. “Our funds performed extremely well in this international competition, achieving top 10 in all categories, which shows how well the UWF program prepares us for our future in finance. I’m very grateful for the hands-on experience and the support from the faculty throughout the process.”

GAME Forum is the largest student-run financial conference in the world, allowing students the opportunity to meet financial world leaders and discuss emerging financial theories in a real-world setting. Held on March 19-20, over 1,200 students, 135 universities and 100 speakers came together to stimulate learning, innovation and competition within global finance.

“Attending the QGAME conference was an amazing experience that allowed me to apply what I’ve learned in the classroom to real investment strategy,” said Ridley Floyd, a senior finance student who also represented her class’s fund at this year’s QGAME. “Being able to engage with students and professionals from around the world, as well as listen and learn from the experienced keynote speakers at the conference, was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! I am very thankful to have been able to participate in the Argo Investments Program and learn from Dr. Ma, and I believe this experience will be incredibly beneficial looking forward to my career.”

CONGRESSMAN PATRONIS CALLS ON VA FOR HOSPITAL UPDATE AND IMPROVED COMMUNITY CARE ACCESS IN NORTHWEST FLORIDA

Late on the evening of March 23, Congressman Patronis sent a formal letter to Secretary of Veterans Affairs Doug Collins requesting a strategic analysis on the need for a new Department of Veterans Affairs hospital in Northwest Florida, as well as a comprehensive review of whether current Community Care guidelines are adequately meeting the region’s needs.

To start Veterans Affairs related casework with Congressman Patronis’ office, visit jimmyhelpsva.com.

To view the formal letter to Secretary Collins, see below.

Dear Secretary Collins:

I urge you to conduct a strategic market analysis for establishing a full-service, Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) hospital in Florida’s First Congressional District and to assess whether existing Community Care (CC) guidelines and operational results are meeting the needs. For veterans seeking inpatient and other specialty care in my district, their options are to travel nearly two to three hours one way to receive treatment at a VA hospital, including facilities such as the VA hospital in Biloxi, Mississippi, or, when deemed eligible, to seek care through the CC program at a private facility. For those unable to obtain CC, nearly twothirds or approximately 140,000 individuals in the VA service area covering my district must travel great distances for same-day surgeries or acute inpatient care. This figure represents the largest number anywhere in the country in

the last assessment. Due to provider shortages, a lack of specialists, as well as administrative delays, I am concerned veterans are unable to receive timely inpatient and other specialty care in the Florida Panhandle from the VA or CC providers.

Recognizing this deficiency, the Department of Veterans Affairs previously recommended building a full-service, VA hospital in my district. For my constituents, these realities delay necessary care and burden our veterans, especially older individuals and those with complex medical needs who lack local inpatient and specialty care options in the Florida Panhandle.

A strategic market analysis would help determine whether the VA is adequately positioned to meet the region’s growing veterans’ healthcare needs, would provide valuable insight into how existing and planned resources can meet these growing demands, and would ensure veterans continue to receive timely, comprehensive, and high-quality healthcare.

Our veterans made tremendous sacrifices for our country. I look forward to working with you throughout this process to ensure these heroes have access to the care and support available to veterans across the country. Thank you and I look forward to your response.

Sincerely,

ICE FLYERS SET NEW FRANCHISE ATTENDANCE RECORD FOR FOURTH STRAIGHT SEASON

The Pensacola Ice Flyers have set a new franchise attendance record for the fourth consecutive season.

A total of 168,493 fans attended Ice Flyers games during the 2025–26 regular season, surpassing last year’s total of 152,702 and continuing a steady rise in support from the Pensacola community.

“When you look at attendance numbers like these, it really speaks to the connection between our organization and the Pensacola community. It’s easy to focus on the number itself, but what stands out more is what it represents. Over the last four seasons, this has become something people here really care about and want to be a part of. That kind of support doesn’t happen everywhere. We don’t take it lightly, and we are extremely grateful,” said owner Greg Harris.

The season included five sellout crowds, highlighted by both 5 Dollar Nights, Wiener Dog Race Night, and two Military Appreciation Nights, including the final regular season home game this past weekend.

Night after night, the Hangar provided an environment that has become a consistent advantage for the Ice Flyers and a central part of the game night experience.

“There’s a lot that goes into creating that kind of atmosphere. Our staff puts in a ton of

GOVERNOR RON DESANTIS SIGNS FLORIDA FARM BILL

On March 23, Governor Ron DeSantis signed Senate Bill 290, the Florida Farm Bill, legislation that strengthens Florida’s agricultural industry, protects consumers, and reinforces the state’s commitment to food security, public safety, and rural land conservation.

“Today in Sebring, I signed SB 290,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “This important farm bill builds on the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services’ reforms to protect Florida agriculture, consumers, and rural communities. It also protects the health, security, and freedom of Floridians.”

“The Free State of Florida just delivered another major win for the people who feed our state and our nation,” said Commissioner Wilton Simpson. “With the legislative leaders’ hard work this session and Governor DeSantis’ signature, the 2026 Florida Farm Bill is now law – protecting our farmers from government overreach, strengthening public safety, and preserving our natural resources and rural lands. I’m proud to stand alongside strong conservative leaders who understand that when you fight for freedom, family, and farmers, you’re fighting for Florida’s future.”

“What a great opportunity to have our Governor sign this bill right here in Florida’s Heartland,” said Senate President Ben Albritton. “Florida’s agriculture industry is the key to thriving families, businesses, and communities across our state. Agriculture matters, and that’s a fact.

I’m grateful to Governor DeSantis, Commissioner Simpson, Senator Truenow, Representative Alvarez, and so many others who have prioritized Florida’s agriculture industry and the legacy farm families who dedicate their lives and livelihoods to growing the fresh, wholesome foods Floridians need. This is an exciting time to be involved in Agriculture in the great, free state of Florida. The best is yet to come.”

“Florida farmers don’t need more red tape, they need the freedom to produce,” said Senator Keith Truenow. “This legislation is about trusting Florida farmers and giving them the room to succeed, because when agriculture thrives, our communities thrive. I’m proud to partner with Commissioner Simpson and Representative Alvarez to support the backbone of our state, and grateful to Governor DeSantis for signing this important bill into law and continuing to champion Florida agriculture.”

“Florida leads when we trust our farmers and get government out of the way,” said Representative Danny Alvarez. “This bill slashes red tape, supports working families, and ensures

our agricultural workforce can keep delivering. I’m proud to stand with Commissioner Simpson on this, and grateful to Governor DeSantis for getting it signed into law.”

Florida’s agricultural industry is a cornerstone of the state’s economy, supporting millions of jobs and feeding families across the nation. More than 45,000 farms and ranches have a $387 billion total economic impact on Florida’s economy. Senate Bill 290 enacts a wide range of reforms to support Florida’s agricultural community and consumers:

• It protects agricultural freedom by preventing local governments from banning gasand diesel-powered equipment essential to farmers, ranchers, and homeowners.

• It preserves rural lands by limiting inappropriate high-density development in agricultural and conservation areas.

• It cuts bureaucratic red tape for agritourism to help farmers expand operations and grow their businesses.

• It strengthens domestic food supply through new investments in agriculture, including programs supporting veterinarians and food distribution.

• It modifies access to emergency recovery loans following disasters to require U.S. citizenship or ownership.

• It launches the Florida Native Seed Research and Marketing Program to promote homegrown agriculture and increase competitiveness.

• It makes Permanent the Farmers Feeding Florida Program, ensuring Florida-grown food continues to reach families in need.

• It establishes a loan repayment program for veterinarians who specialize in food animals and equine care.

The Florida Farm Bill builds on years of strategic investments in agriculture and land conservation, including hundreds of thousands of acres preserved through the Rural and Family Lands Protection Program to ensure that working farms and ranches remain protected for future generations.

In addition to supporting agriculture, SB 290 includes key provisions to protect Floridians:

• It criminalizes cheating on commercial driver license (CDL) exams to improve roadway safety.

• It strengthens enforcement against unwanted commercial solicitation to protect homeowner privacy.

• It bans signal jamming devices that can disrupt law enforcement and emergency communications

FPL SURPASSES $1 BILLION IN ANNUAL FUEL SAVINGS FOR CUSTOMERS

work behind the scenes to make sure everything runs smoothly, from the fan experience to the details people may not even notice. When you combine that with the way our fans show up and the energy they bring, it creates something that players feel and respond to,” said Senior Director of Operations Brenden Arney.

The Ice Flyers have now increased their total attendance in each of the past four seasons, marking one of the strongest stretches of sustained growth in franchise history.

With the regular season set to complete this upcoming weekend, the focus now shifts to the postseason.

“You build toward this time of year from day one. The regular season gives you a foundation, but everything changes once the playoffs start. Having this kind of environment behind us going into the playoffs is important, and we’re looking forward to seeing how our team responds,” Harris said.

The Ice Flyers will host their first home playoff game on April 10 or 11, with a potential second home game on April 12 depending on the series.

Further details on playoff scheduling and ticket information will be announced once matchups and dates are finalized, with strong demand expected for playoff games at the Hangar.

Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) announced it surpassed $1 billion in customer fuel savings in 2025, the result of systematic, smart investments in fuel-efficient technologies over the past two decades.

A word from FPL CEO Armando Pimentel: “Our long-term strategy of investing in highly efficient and innovative technologies is delivering real value for our customers. These investments are helping us save customers billions in fuel costs and ensuring that Florida has the reliable, affordable electricity it needs to continue to grow and prosper.”

Customer benefits: Because fuel costs are passed directly to customers, FPL has helped reduce customer bills with a collective $17.6 billion in avoided fuel costs since 2001. FPL’s typical residential customer bills are currently 30% below the national average and the lowest among rate-regulated utilities in Florida.

Ultra fuel-efficient natural gas:

• Florida depends on reliable natural gas, which generates approximately twothirds of the state’s electricity. The more a utility can reduce fuel costs, the more it can help reduce customer bills.

• FPL's investments to replace old, inefficient oil-burning plants with ultraefficient energy centers that run on U.S.-produced natural gas has saved customers approximately $860 million in fuel costs in 2025 alone.

Zero-emissions nuclear:

FPL safely operates four nuclear power units at its Turkey Point and St. Lucie sites.

• FPL delivered fuel-cost savings for customers by identifying highly efficient, innovative operating practices, including enhanced technologies and improved refueling timelines at its nuclear plants.

• The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) approved the license renewal for FPL’s Turkey Point to operate into the 2050s. St. Lucie's license renewal request to operate for an additional 20 years is pending with the NRC.

Low-cost solar energy centers:

• Solar energy centers are one of the fastest to build and most cost-effective sources of new power generation to meet the energy needs of Florida’s growing population.

• FPL’s solar energy centers provide enough low-cost, reliable energy to power over 1.7 million homes across the state annually, saving customers $1.2 billion in fuel costs since 2021.

Cutting-edge battery energy storage:

• By pairing battery energy storage systems with solar, or other sources of power generation, excess, low-cost energy can be stored and used when needed most.

• By the end of the year, FPL plans to add more than 1,400 MW of battery energy storage systems across a mix of thirteen hybrid and standalone sites.

• FPL’s investment will deliver enough electricity to serve more than one million homes over a four-hour period.

About Florida Power & Light Company Florida Power & Light Company is America’s largest electric utility, delivering reliable power to more than 6 million customer accounts — serving approximately 12 million people across Florida. By leveraging a diverse energy mix, including nuclear, natural gas, solar and battery storage, FPL operates one of the most fuel- and cost-efficient power generation fleets in the U.S. and has earned the ReliabilityOne® National Reliability Award for seven of the last ten years. FPL is a subsidiary of Juno Beach, Floridabased NextEra Energy, Inc.
