any people dream of performing on Broadway, but for Teddy Toye, from Spring Hill, this dream is a

reality.

When Teddy was 18 months old, he sang at the Strawberry Festival where he shocked the audience singing “Minnie the Moocher” an old Cab Calloway song and “Great Balls of Fire,” by Jerry Lee Lewis, without missing a word or beat.

At two years old Teddy stepped on stage with his father Eddie Toye, a musician, and he quickly fell in love with the musical world.

When Teddy reached first grade, his parents took him and his younger sister Amber to Springstead High School to audition for the production “Wizard of Oz.” They needed young kids to play the roles of munchkins. He got a role playing a Lollipop Guild munchkin. This was his very first exposure to the world of theatre and acting.

An summer time adventure awaits at Devil's Den in Williston

By ROCCO MAGLIO rocco@hernandosun.com

A little over an hour north of Hernando County in the town of Williston, sits Devil's Den. It is an underground cavern accessible through a narrow stairway that descends to a dive platform. A section of the cavern roof collapsed centuries ago revealing the swimming area. Devil's Den cavern has lights mounted on the walls and significant light streams through the opening. The water is crystal clear allowing you to see the turtles and fish that visit the cavern. The current depth of the water is approximately 50-60 feet.

The cavern is referred to as prehistoric because there are bones and other geological evidence that place its age between 10,000 and 75,000 years old.

There have been many bones and fossils recovered

At 8:44pm on July 14, 2019 a concerned caller from a Hernando County taxi company related information to the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office leading to the tragic recovery of a deceased woman, Viviana Sanchez.

Sanchez was reported missing in Pasco County earlier in the afternoon.

From the Sheriff’s Office description of the unfolding events, the caller and Sanchez’s family members were able to determine her whereabouts, but unfortunately it was too late by the time law enforcement arrived on scene at the parking lot of Dollar Tree on County Line Rd. Sanchez had called the taxi company that afternoon around 2pm requesting a taxi in 30 minutes to an address on Fieldpoint Way in Spring Hill (Pasco County). Sanchez told the taxi company that if she didn't answer the door when they arrived, they should call the police. Rather than respond to the residence, a representative from the taxi company immediately contacted the Pasco Sheriff's Office.

FDOE sued, accused of shortchanging teachers on bonuses A lawsuit was filed accusing the Florida Department of Education of shortchanging teachers on their performance bonuses approved by the State. The “Best and Brightest” program provides a bonus of $6,000 or $1,200 to teachers who achieve a “highly effective” rating and meet other criteria. The issue is related to who pays for the federal taxes on the bonuses. Normally for salary, the employer and employee split the 13.85% federal social security and medicare taxes with each paying half. For the bonuses, the full 13.85% was deducted from the bonuses. For the $6000 bonus this meant that the teachers received $5,169 instead of $5,584.50. The $5,584.50 option would require the state to pay $6,415.50 to provide the $6,000 bonus.

The caller further advised that the driver of the vehicle was his heavily Intoxicated mother. While en route to the scene, I was Informed by dispatch that the defendant's vehicle was an older model white Lincoln Town Car. I then observed the defendant's vehicle to drive past me at a high rate of speed. I observed that vehicle to have be driving erratically, which was Indicated by the vehicles inability to maintain its lane.

A traffic stop was then conducted on the 2007 white Lincoln Town Car (bearing New Mexico tag of 543TTY).

I then made contact with the defendant, Tony Strozak, who was observed to be in the front passenger side of the vehicle.

Tony stated that he had entered into a brief, heated, physical altercation with his nephew- while he was driving his 2007 white Lincoln Town Car. The defendant stated that the Issue with his nephew was due to his nephew requesting that he pull off the side of the road and let him drive to his fear of a possible crash. The defendant stated that he then pulled over and stopped his nephew. When questioned how he stopped his nephew, the defendant would only advise that he never struck his nephew.

The defendant stated that at no point did the altercation ever become physical. I observed the defendant to have bloodshot watery eyes and a heavily slurred speech. The defendant admitted to drinking prior to law enforcement conducting a traffic stop. I did not observe the defendant to have any injuries upon his person.

Contact was then made with the victim, Shae Anthony Rome. Shae stated that he and his family had been drinking at the ‘Get Hooked' bar located in the Hudson area when they decided to return home. Shae advised that due to his uncle and mother being heavily Intoxicated, he was worried about the defendant's ability to operate a motor vehicle. Shae advised that after repeatedly requesting the subject to pull the vehicle over, he was struck in the face by the defendants closed fist, without provocation. Shae advised that the defendant repeatedly battered him, causing the glasses on his face to be shattered and for the Inside of his llp to be cut slightly.

When questioned about these injuries, the defendant could not accurately recall how his nephew had sustained them.

Contact was then made with Kelly Jean Figueroa, the mother of the victim and sister of the defendant. Kelly refused to provide witness testimony of the incident, merely stating that she was only driving the vehicle and did not see anything.

Based upon the statements of all parties, it was determined that the defendant was the primary aggressor.

only thing she said was that she was beat up and thrown to the ground by her boyfriend James while at his house.

After the defendant was transported to the hospital, I made contact with the victim at this residence. James stated an argument ensued shortly after midnight while they were having sex. James advised that during the argument, Jasmine grabbed a folding box cutter out of her purse and began to swing It violently at him. James did have scratch marks all over his upper torso, both arms, and neck; and I was unable to tell if any of it was done from the box cutter or the defendant's nails.

It should be noted that a roommate in the home witnessed the defendant swinging the box cutter at James and after he attempted to Intervene, he was struck In the head with a flying pan by the defendant.

The roommate signed a Waiver of Prosecution against the defendant for one count of battery.

That incident was recorded by the codefendant on his cell phone. That video will later be uploaded to Evidence.

The victim claims that after the argument, both he and the victim went to bed and at no time did he ever prevent her from leaving the home.

I then responded to Oak Hill Hospital and made contact with the defendant in Emergency Room 19. The defendant was very defensive as was her mother and became very belligerent because James was not under arrest. The defendant denied ever swinging a box cutter at the victim and denied ever striking anyone with a frying pan even though there was video evidence.

The defendant claimed that the marks and scratches on James were from her defending herself and nothing more.

After the defendant was medically cleared with no serious injuries from the hospital, she was transported to the Hernando County Detention Center and charged with one count of Domestic Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon and one count of Domestic Battery.

The defendant was given a court date of 08/12/2019 at 1315 hours and held on a no bond status.

The argument started when?

Apollo 11 astronaut returns to launch pad 50 years later

By MARCIA DUNN AP Aerospace Writer

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — Apollo 11 astronaut Michael Collins returned Tuesday to the exact spot where he flew to the moon 50 years ago with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin.

Collins had the spotlight to himself this time — Armstrong has been gone for seven years and Aldrin canceled. Collins said he wished his two moonwalking colleagues could have shared the moment at Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39A, the departure point for humanity's first moon landing.

"Wonderful feeling to be back," the 88-year-old command module pilot said on NASA TV. "There's a difference this time. I want to turn and ask Neil a question and maybe tell Buzz Aldrin something, and of course, I'm here by myself."

At NASA's invitation, Collins marked the precise moment — 9:32 a.m. on July 16, 1969 — that the Saturn V rocket blasted off. He was seated at the base of the pad alongside Kennedy's director, Robert Cabana, a former space shuttle commander.

Collins recalled the tension surrounding the crew that day.

"Apollo 11 ... was serious business. We, crew, felt the weight of the world on our shoulders. We knew that everyone would be looking at us, friend or foe, and we wanted to do the best we possibly could," he said.

Collins remained in lunar orbit, tending to Columbia, the mother ship, while Armstrong and Aldrin landed in the Eagle on July 20, 1969, and spent 2 ½ hours walking the gray, dusty lunar surface.

A reunion Tuesday at the Kennedy firing room by past and present launch controllers — and Collins' return to the pad, now leased to SpaceX — kicked off a week of celebrations marking each day of Apollo 11's eight-day voyage.

In Huntsville, Alabama, where the Saturn V was developed, some 4,900 model rockets lifted off simultaneously, commemorating the moment the Apollo 11 crew blasted off for the moon.

More than 1,000 youngsters attending Space Camp counted down ... "5, 4, 3, 2, 1!" — and cheered as the red, white and blue rockets created a gray cloud, at

"Apollo 11 ... was serious business.

We, crew, felt the weight of the world on our shoulders.

We knew that everyone would be looking at us, friend or foe, and we wanted to do the best we possibly could."

- Apollo 11 Astronaut Michael Collins least for a few moments, in the sky.

The U.S. Space and Rocket Center was shooting for an altitude of at least 100 feet (30 meters) in order to set a new Guinness Book of World Records.

Apollo 15 astronaut Al Worden helped with the mass launching. Also present: all three children of German-born rocket genius Wernher von Braun, who masterminded the Saturn V. "This was a blast. This was an absolute blast," said spectator Scott Hayek of Ellicott City, Maryland.

"And, you know, what a tribute - and, a visceral tribute - to see the rockets going off."

Another spectator, Karin Wise, of Jonesboro, Georgia, was 19 during Apollo 11 and recalled being glued to TV coverage.

"So, to bring my grandchildren here for the 50 anniversary, was so special," she said. "I hope they're around for the 100th anniversary."

At the Smithsonian's Air and Space Museum in Washington, the spacesuit that Armstrong wore went back on display in mint condition, complete with lunar dust left on the suit's knees, thighs and elbows.

On hand for the unveiling were Vice President Mike Pence, NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine and Armstrong's older son, Rick. Armstrong died in 2012.

A fundraising campaign took just five days to raise the $500,000 needed for the restoration. It was taken off display 13 years ago because it was deteriorating, said museum curator Cathleen Lewis. It took four years to rehab it.

Portrait of Michael Collins in a spacesuit taken on April 16, 1969, three months before the launch of Apollo 11

Calling Armstrong a hero, Pence said "the American people express their gratitude by preserving this symbol of courage."

Back at Kennedy, NASA televised original launch video of Apollo 11, timed down to the second. Then Cabana turned his conversation with Collins to NASA's next moonshot program, Artemis, named after the twin sister of Greek mythology's Apollo. It seeks to put the first woman and next man on the lunar surface — the moon's south pole — by 2024. President John F. Kennedy's challenge to put a man on the moon by the end of 1969 took eight years to achieve.

Collins said he likes the name Artemis and, even more, likes the concept behind Artemis.

"But I don't want to go back to the moon," Collins told Cabana. "I want to go direct to Mars. I call it the JFK Mars Express."

Collins noted that the moon-first crowd has merit to its argument and he pointed out Armstrong himself was among those who believed returning to the moon "would assist us mightily in our attempt to go to Mars."

Cabana assured Collins, "We believe the faster we get to the moon, the faster we get to Mars as we develop those systems that we need to make that happen."

About 100 of the original 500 launch controllers and managers on July 16, 1969, reunited in the firing room Tuesday morning.

The crowd also included

At 9:32 a.m. EDT, July 16, 1969, Apollo 11 launched from Florida, taking commander Neil Armstrong, lunar module pilot Buzz Aldrin and command module pilot Michael Collins on a mission for the history books – a mission to become the first humans to land on another celestial body. Armstrong and Aldrin became the first humans to set foot on the Moon, while Michael Collins remained aboard the command module in lunar orbit.

members of NASA's next moon management team, including Charlie Blackwell-Thompson, launch director for the still-in-development Space Launch System moon rocket. The SLS will surpass the Saturn V, the world's most powerful rocket to fly to date.

Blackwell-Thompson said she got goosebumps listening to the replay of the Apollo 11 countdown.

Hearing Collins' "personal account of what that was like was absolutely amazing."

The lone female launch controller for Apollo 11, JoAnn Morgan, enjoyed seeing the much updatedfiring room. One thing was notably missing, though: stacks of paper. "We could have walked to the moon on the paper," Morgan said.

Collins was reunited later Tuesday with two other Apollo astronauts at an evening gala at Kennedy, including Apollo 16 moonwalker Charlie Duke, who was the capsule commu-

nicator in Mission Control for the Apollo 11 moon landing. Only four of the 12 moonwalkers from 1969 through 1972 are still alive: Aldrin, Duke, Apollo 15's David Scott and Apollo 17's Harrison Schmitt.

Among the gala attendees: Eight former shuttle astronauts, including Mark Kelly and his wife, former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson and "space lover" and aspiring space tourist Vesa Heilala, 52, who traveled from Helsinki to Florida for the anniversary.

"I had to come here because in Finland we don't have rockets and we don't have astronauts for 50 years," said Heilala, who was collecting astronaut autographs on his colorful propeller cap.

Huntsville's rocket center also had a special anniversary dinner Tuesday night, with some retired Apollo and Skylab astronauts and rocket scientists. Aldrin

was set to attend but was traveling Tuesday and likely wouldn't make it on time, a center official said.

Aldrin, 89, hosted a gala in Southern California last Saturday.

NASA spokesman Bob Jacobs said Aldrin bowed out of the Florida launch pad visit, citing his intense schedule of appearances.

Aldrin and Collins may reunite in Washington on Friday or Saturday, the 50th anniversary of Apollo 11's moon landing.

Feisty is an understatement, she was a fireball.

Watching her in the All-American sitcom show, The Golden Girls, you never knew what would come out of Sophia Petrillo's mouth. As she (well into her 80s) lived with her adult daughter, Dorothy and two other older women in their shared, multi-bedroom Miami home on the tv series.

"I always wondered why blessings wore disguises.

If I were a blessing, I'd run around naked," Sophia would spout off.

In a cooking scene, she said, "If this sauce was a person, I'd get naked and make love to it."

Or she'd share a few words of wisdom, remarking, “No matter how bad

What matters at the BOCC Meeting?

Development 07.16.2019 Progress MATTERS MATTERS

First Public Hearing to Consider Ordinance Amending Land Development Regulations Regarding Subdivision Regulations

The board voted 4-0 to accept the changes to the ordinance and move to a second public hearing.

Changes to the ordinance adds the language, “In the event the proposed subdivision will connect to county water and/or sewer facilities, the engineer of record shall prepare a capacity analysis in accordance with County standards and requirements to ensure that the distribution and collection network can accommodate the additional projected flows.” The intent is to move the capacity analysis to an earlier point in the planning phases.

Also added is language that administratively approves construction plans, “Upon determination that the construction plans are in conformance with all required rules and regulations…”

Considerable changes were also discussed regarding roadways, especially the avoidance of creating half-roads within subdivisions.

Rezoning Petition Submitted by Sport Fisherman’s Landing Inc. (H1833) The board voted 4-0 to postpone the rezoning of this subject from CM-1 to PDP-CM. Rezoning Petition Submitted by Arnoldo Naranjo Rivero (H1911) This petition was withdrawn by the applicant.

The board approved 4-0.

Rezoning Petition Submitted by HR Hernando, LLP (H1905) Intended use is for an RV (recreational vehicle) park. The board approved 4-0.

Rezoning Petition Submitted by Bowlersmart, LLC (H1914) Intended use is for wholesale and distribution.

The board approved 4-0.

Rezoning Petition Submitted by Hafcortez 17, LLC (H1915) Intended use is for self-storage with outdoor storage for boats, RVs, etc. The board approved 4-0, with modification conditions that the buildings along the property line will not exceed 20 feet in height. The southern boundary will also include an 8 foot PVC fence.

Rezoning Petition Submitted by Susan Compton (H1917) Intended use is for a veterinary clinic with short term boarding. The board approved 4-0.

Master Plan Revision Petition Submitted by Rivard Development, LLC (H1909) The intent is to develop The Trails at Rivard, Phase II. Planning and Zoning Commission (P&Z) voted 4-1 to deny this petition due to lack of capacity at district schools, the entire development has a single point of access (one way in and out), and differences in lot sizes.

After considerable discussion, primarily about access and roadways, the BOCC voted to approve the petition, with several modifications. An agreement will need to be reached with the school board to address the student capacity issue.

Update Regarding Ongoing Board Directives by County Administrator Jeff Rogers

#9: Sale of property at Gulf Winds Circle has been completed.

#4: Review of user fees for parks and boat ramps. Determine which parks should be funded from ad valorem and which parks should be funded from user fees. Per County Administrator Jeff Rogers, the board is not moving forward with this item. It will be removed from the list.

The board voted 3-1 to approve a $6.10 increase in Solid Waste Disposal Assessments for Fiscal Year 2020. The board will revisit this item for subsequent fiscal years. The maximum assessment may not exceed $95.00 for single family residences, or $86.65 for multi-family residences up to four units.

Commissioner Steve Champion was the dissenting vote.

The county provides the following information in the agenda packet: "The Solid Waste Disposal Assessment has been in effect since 1990. This Assessment is paid by every residential single-family and multi-family unit in the County to cover the cost of disposal of their trash. The amounts collected pay for the operations of the landfill and convenience centers and are not used for collection services. The rates are currently $63.05 (single-family) and $57.50 (multifamily) per unit. The rates have not increased in over 15 years during which Hernando County has had an estimated population increase of more than 37,000 residents. The Department is now requesting an increase in the Solid Waste Disposal Assessment rates. This increase is necessary due to rising operational costs, major capital projects and the need to provide for storm debris removal.

The increase will provide for construction and maintenance of a new $16 million garbage cell, which will provide disposal service to County residents for many more years.

"The increase will also be used to allow for a storm debris removal fund. The necessity of this fund developed after Hurricane Irma, when there was a need for the County to pay for debris removal. Since FEMA does not reimburse 100%, the County must be prepared to fund storm debris removal so that the County can fully recover after a major disaster.

"The assessment for each parcel of property will be based upon each parcel’s classification and the total number of assessment units attributed to that parcel. The following tables reflect the proposed solid waste disposal assessment schedules.

The signs state, “All organized sports groups and/or independent trainers must provide certificates of insurance to the City of Brooksville and schedule use of these fields by visiting the Parks and Recreation department at 99 Jerome Brown Place, Monday - Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.” Brooksville City Manager Mark Kutney told The Hernando Sun that the placement of the signs and locking of the gates was prompted by scheduling issues for the field.

Professional coaches and other personnel leading organized teams must be properly insured as governed by their organizations.

Kutney reported that he first became aware of the issue when he was contacted by the Hernando Youth League Contracts Awarded, Purchases and Changes (HYL), when they found the field in use during their scheduled time.

The Board of County Commissioners voted Anthony Laviano, current director of 4-0 to approve the following contracts that the HYL said the insurance requirement were not pulled for discussion. The discussed is not arbitrary nor new. “It comes down items were voted upon separately. to basic liability, if you’re organized and you’re accepting money for services.”

The County does not have a Debt Management Policy. Historically, any debt of the County has adhered to the criteria outlined in this proposed Policy but adopting a policy will formalize those practices for the future.

Brooksville City Council at the July 15, 2019 regular meeting. Kutney explained, “I’ve heard a lot of comments … that this is a liability issue. It is not a liability issue.

Back in April, we had a number of requests, and questions from the HYL about other groups getting the field without deserving it. There were questions about providing insurance, but basically there were issues regarding coordination (of scheduled times).”

According to Kutney, there have been social media posts about meetings at the field without proper reservations, and problems arising when staff attempted to service a field for an upcoming event, and players refused to vacate. The zip-ties have been in place most recently to allow servicing of the fields, and also to prevent access when heavy rain is expected.

Some members of the council were unaware that there have been problems that led to these changes. The council agreed as a whole to meet with Kutney over the next two weeks, and officially list the topic on a future meeting agenda.

IN, OUT & ABOUT

Go for the Glow See Disney's Typhoon Lagoon Water Park in a whole new light.

BY SUE QUIGLEY HERNANDO SUN WRITER

Who remembers the excitement of catching fireflies and being fascinated by how they glowed in the dark? We’d look forward to summer and have our Mason jars ready to capture the beetles in hedgerows and fields with nets fashioned from anything we could find.

We all loved that glow in the dark.

Disney has captured that thrill and excitement of luminescence with their special H20 Glow Nights at Typhoon Lagoon Water Park. With a plethora of new lighting enhancements to the luminescent Toy Story-themed menu items, it’s just glow, glow and more glow.

Inspired by the popular Toy Story Toon, “Partysaurus Rex,” this exclusive after-hours party will

take place on select nights now through Aug. 24.

"Dinosaur of Ceremonies" Rex and some of his Toy Story pals will be there, including Buzz Lightyear, Woody and Jessie.

Guests receive a complimentary glow wrist band to join in on the party atmosphere and you can also purchase a glow-in-the dark T-shirt to make your own fashion statement.

During H2O Glow Nights, the park’s atmosphere transforms into an electric celebration with lots of splash surprises and shorter wait times at all the popular waterslides.

Glowing neon signage and lighting effects will greet you upon your arrival and new this year is a colorful dynamic projection of the H2O Glow Nights logo. Be on the lookout for the special

H2O Glow Nights tubes floating down Castaway Creek and ride Miss Adventure Falls to find out what happens inside the tunnels at night.

For the more energetic, enjoy a DJ-hosted dance party on the sandy beaches of the Surf Pool.

The dance floor, located on the beach next to the Surf Pool, is definitely a focal point of H2O Glow Nights with pulsing lights, music and talented performers sporting neon outfits.

H2O Glow Nights has thought of everything hosting an adults only” party. It’s esigned with adult partygoers in mind and features special entertainment and a bar at “The Wharf.”

The park has a tempting array of colorful and glowing drinks, and fun eats for H2O Glow Nights. These creative

Toy Story characters Woody, and Jessie will be at Typhoon Lagoon on H20 Glow Nights.

and delicious offerings can be found throughout the park and at select restaurants including the Leaning Palms; Typhoon Tilly’s; Happy Landings Ice Cream and Let’s Go Slurpin’ Here are a few menu items to look out for: A Buzz Blaster: Sprite and green apple popping pearls served with a Buzz Lightyear glow clip; Galactic Lemonade: blueberry vodka, blue curaçao, Odwalla Lemonade and pomegranate juice topped

Judah Ben-Hur the musical is produced by YWAM (Youth With a Mission) of Tampa Bay and is directed by Ellen Sanborn. It is a magical tale of romance, comedy and adventure. The audience is invited to re-live the legend of Rome’s great character, the hate that nearly destroyed him and the love of Christ that transformed him.

Under the helm of Sir Andrew Lloyd Weber’s former G.M., "Judah Ben-Hur" held its world premier at Singapore’s NUS Cultural Centre, where it ran for 56 performances. The musical has been pared down for touring with a cast that includes the original stars of the show and a dozen other seasoned performers (including credits off Broadway and London's West End).

The New York Times has called the creative team's work “spot-on” and “a seeming endless well of feeling.” MTV (Asia) reported that the songs from Judah BenHur “are so catchy and memorable that you'll be humming them on the way out of the auditorium.”

For more information about the musical, go to www.judahbenhur.com or Judah Ben Hur Musical on Facebook.

About Ellen Sanborn Ellen Sanborn started her career on London’s West End more than 30 years ago and has opened for such legends as Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan, and, more recently, has led Worship Workshops with singers like Bob Fitts and Darlene Zschech. As a director, she has also staged such musicals as “The Sound of Music,” and “My Fair Lady.”

Hernando County Sports News & Notes

By Andy Villamarzo Hernando Sun sports reporter

Springstead announces new volleyball coach Andrea Kneser

Toby Benoit is a best selling novelist and professional outdoorsman with thirty-five years of experience guiding and outfitting for big game all across America. Toby is a renowned archer and turkey hunting expert who manufactures custom game calls and is a regular judge at NWTF sanctioned turkey calling events across the Southeast.

String Stretching Time Archery season is just around the corner and it’s time to get our gear ready. Time to knock the dust off the old quiver, pull the targets out and begin flinging arrows. For the bowhunters who don’t shoot year round (I can’t imagine) now is the time to begin stretching out the muscles to draw smoothly and comfortably and put your set up through its paces to ensure we’re every bit as ready for the big hunt as we can be.

The beginning of archery season this year takes place on August 3rd, way down south in our state’s A-Zone as established by the Florida Wildlife Commission.

Living up here in the C-Zone, we’ve still got a way to go before we can hunt locally, but each year, a good many of us head southward to the A-zone to get in on the miseries involved in the summertime opening day. But, before we get there I want to make certain that my gear is in top shape.

I’ll begin by checking my string for signs that it has stretched or frayed, paying strict attention to the center serving where the arrow nock attaches. If all appears well, I’ll give it a good waxing, whether it appears to need it or not. Next, I’ll check to ensure the timing is still dead on. The timing is the rotation of the cams on the bows; you really want to ensure that they are rotating and breaking over at precisely the same moment.

Then, it’s a good time to give each axle a squirt of lubricating oil. But, my bow doesn’t have cams or wheels, so I’ll check my tiller that all is in sync and there are no twists, fractures or delaminations anywhere in the limbs.

Now, if I’ve noted any concerns, each will need to be addressed before actually nocking up and firing the bow.

If you haven’t the experience or tools necessary to do the job properly, please get to a pro-shop.

Even if they may be a long drive, get there.

It’s not worth risking damage to the bow or God-forbid yourself should that bow come apart on you. It’s rare, but it happens.

Then, it’s time to shoot and check to ensure the tune is still dead on, as is your accuracy.

Hopefully you won’t have any issues at all getting your arrows stacking once again into the bullseye.

Beyond that, it’s just a matter of repetition and strengthening your

Springstead High School has announced the hiring of Andrea Kneser as the school’s next volleyball head coach, per an announcement by the school on Twitter a couple weeks ago.

“Thrilled to be able to bring someone with her enthusiasm, organization and experience as a player, coach and commissioner,” Springstead athletic director Dustin Kupcik said.

The Eagles were 16-5 two years ago (2017) heading into the district semifinals before losing to Land O’ Lakes.

season at 12-14. Kneser replaces Kyra Leonard as the head coach for the program.

Expectations were not quite as high from what they were from the 2017 campaign after

finishing just four wins short of 20, so many expected a little bit of a rebuild for the Eagles.

The Eagles ended up finishing behind Sunlake, Mitchell and Land O’ Lakes, respectively.

A tough district schedule coincided with the team’s 1-5 mark within 7A-8.

Leading the team in kills on the season was junior Jennifer Aten, who ended the 2018 campaign with 465.

Aten also led in a couple other key categories, including assists (87) and digs (411).

Fellow junior Olivia Deloach contributed 93 kills on the season.

Florida lands ex-Cleveland State point guard Tyree Appleby

by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Florida has landed a third transfer in the last three months by signing former Cleveland State point guard Tyree Appleby.

Appleby averaged 17.2 points and 5.6 assists as a sophomore in the Horizon League last season. He has to sit out the 2019-20 season under NCAA transfer rules and will have two years of eligibility remaining.

The Gators had a scholarship available after forward Isaiah Stokes transferred this month.

Appleby, a 6-foot1 Arkansas native, joins fellow transfers Anthony Duruji and Kerry Blackshear Jr. in Gainesville. Duruji jumped from Louisiana Tech to Florida in April and must sit out next season. Blackshear can play right away as a graduate transfer from Virginia Tech.

With the addition of Blackshear, the Gators are expected to be a national championship contender. They return three starters from last

year's NCAA Tournament team and add a top-10 signing class that includes two McDonald's All-Americans. ___ More AP college basketball: https://apnews. com/Collegebasketball and https://twitter.com/ AP_Top25

Giving Back to the Community: Micheal Jones Camp

Nature Coach Tech’s 13th Basketball Camp

ARTICLE AND PHOTOGRAPHY BY ALICE MARY HERDEN

During the summer, many kids are on vacation or involved in summer camps, and Hernando County has many opportunities for kids to continue being active while school is out.

David Pisarcik, head varsity basketball coach for Nature Coast Technical High School, has been offering a co-ed basketball camp for over ten years.

The camps are held twice a year in June and July, and close to three hundred kids participate in learning a variety of basketball skills.

“We started this [camp] a long time ago,” Pisarcik said. “This gives them something to do; learn a little bit, have some fun, and become ultimately better at basketball.”

The four-day camp is held in Nature Coast Tech’s gym and guided by the Sharks’ very own basketball coaches. Each day has different drills, games,

and even competitions for the kids to develop basketball skills.

Many of the kids that attend the camp start at the age of four and most return year after year. This gives coach Pisarcik, as well as the other coaches, the opportunity to see their individual growth and development.

“We like to see them develop. We can see [how] their basketball game matures,” Pisarcik remarked.

“It’s a good feeling to be able to see the kids develop and go back to their high school teams and be successful.”

Along the courtside helping out are former NCT players that are there to help coach the kids and inspire them.

“We always bring back our college guys, and I think it’s a good valuable lesson,” Pisarcik said.

“They can help relay the message of- if you continue to work hard, you can reach your goals because these guys are living examples of it.”

Hernando County Parks and Recreation along with Pasco Hernando State College head basketball coach Micheal Jones hosted a free basketball camp at Delta Woods Park. Early Saturday morning kids aged seven to seventeen filled the outdoor basketball courts to learn more about the game they love.

The campers who participated in this event performed a variety of basketball skills.

“The camp is just a way to give back to the community,” Jones said. “This gives them a chance to see what I had to follow when I was young.”

Helping out on the courts were Hernando High’s Hall of Fame Marion Jones and Phillip Jones, Calvin Brown, Todd Burkhamer and former PHSC basketball players Chris Copeland and Charles Issacc.

“It’s getting the kids out, having fun, learning about the game- that’s what it’s all about,” Jones said.

BUSINESS MATTERS

Brad Owens Business Consultant SBDC at USF

Jumping the hurdles of obtaining a business loan No matter how successful a business may be, there are many business owners who find themselves in situations where they need to obtain a business loan in order to take their business to the next level. Whether it’s going from renting to owning the business property or maybe expanding the business internationally, additional investments can be a fact of life.

Obtaining a business loan is often a once in a lifetime experience for a business owner. It can be a daunting and confusing time for those not well-versed in the process. Here are five hurdles that a business owner can often face and information on how to get over them.

Hurdle #1: Business Plan and Financial Projections Having a well thought out and thorough business plan and financial projection report is essential when applying for a loan.

This is a barrier that mostly effects existing businesses with at least a three-year track record. The lender is going to look at three years of history, plus the current year-to-date, and do a trend analysis, cash flow analysis and debt service coverage analysis. This helps the lender essentially look into a crystal ball that determines how likely the business owner is to pay back the loan.

There are many business owners who seek outside assistance when creating these reports due to the complex and in-depth information that needs to be included.

Some spend thousands of dollars for these reports, but it should be noted that there are resources available that will help business owners create these reports at no cost.

If the lender is on the fence and leaning toward a rejection, they may require a U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) guarantee to help nudge them to a yes.

Gaining an SBA guarantee is generally an easy task.

The main criterion is to be a for-profit business that is owned by an American citizen or legal permanent resident. They of course analyze the business owner’s credit history and do their own analysis, but most businesses qualify for an SBA guarantee. This litigates the lenders risk enough that they will say yes, because the SBA agrees to cover the guaranteed portion to the lender.

If a business has not been in business for three years, it’s typically a no right away, because it is hard to develop predictions of an outcome.

Though there is always an exception to the rule, it is rare that they will accept a business plan or financial projections from a startup and that business owner would definitely require an SBA guarantee to even be considered.

Hurdle #2: Equity Injection Every single loan requires a down payment. There are many clients who think that even if they don’t have a down payment, they can

just for fish. The water is several feet higher than normal in the pond and Devil's Den. The Devil's Den cavern is a dive site that allows snorkeling. To enter the cavern you are required to pay $15 and have at least a mask, snorkel, and fins.

You can rent equipment there. The mask, snorkel, and fins costs $10 for a two hour period.

It is also possible to camp at Devil's Den. They have RV spots, an area for tents, and four cabins.

The cabins are of a decent size and sleep four. The cabins have their own area for grilling and gathering around a campfire. You are also allowed to stroll around the beautiful grounds of Devil's Den. There are raised walkways, trails in the woods, and the aforementioned ponds with walkways around and over the ponds.

Next door to Devil's Den, with a separate entrance fee is a beautiful botanical garden called Cedar Lakes that was created in an old limestone quarry. The brainchild of Dr. Raymond Webber, the abandoned quarry was slowly transformed into the exquisite botanical landscape it is today. Dr. Webber purchased the property in 1991 with the intention of creating a large fishing pond, but he has transformed it into something much greater. There are several waterfalls on the property and many beautiful plants including a 142 year old boxwood bonsai. There are Japanese gardens, islands, gazebos and bridges constructed out of Brazilian walnut. A tremendous amount of cement work has been done to create stairs, walkways and reinforce the edge of the quarry.

There is a path around the top of the quarry and steps that lead down into the quarry where they have paths at water level. Some of the water's edge paths are currently flooded since the water level is elevated. Cedar Lakes has several amazing picnic spots with incredible views. It is interesting to see what they managed to do with an abandoned quarry. The gardens only opened to the public in 2014 when Dr. Webber created the non-profit organization that now runs the 20-acre property. He donated the the garden to the 501c3.

He also donated 64 acres of natural habitat surrounding the botanical gardens to Conservation Florida. Reserve at least 90 minutes to explore the botanical gardens.

Williston is a quaint town of under 3,000. Downtown is located under three miles from Devil's Den where there are a few places to grab a bite to eat.

The Ivy House is a restaurant located off Main Street next to the municipal building. It serves southern favorites including fried green tomatoes, fried shrimp, and fried cod. They have great house salads which come fully loaded. The portions are large, so opt for the small portions unless you have a tremendous appetite. You can save your appetite for the desserts. They have several interesting options including a Buttermilk Walnut Pie. The restaurant has received many accolades throughout the years. They earned a spot among Florida Trend magazine's 500 Best Places to Dine in 2005. The Ivy House building is a historic home constructed around 1917. The former owner, Dr. Willis, was the son of the town's founder. Dr. Willis practiced medicine out of the home for a period of time, before building a small hospital next door. Marjorie "Mimi" Hale purchased the home in 1989 as a new location for her dress shop boutique which she had run for a number of years. Hale eventually decided to start a restaurant as well due to her love of cooking. The eclectic and stylish boutique occupies the second story of the building, while the restaurant is downstairs.

Devil's Den is a fun day trip or overnight getaway. It is a great way to reset. The natural features are very impressive and spending the day in the water and woods is very relaxing.

somehow finagle their way around it and find a lender who doesn’t require it. The business owner assumes the lender will read their detailed business plan and be so impressed that they will just overlook this small hiccup, but that is nonsense. That’s not how it works.

The business owner has to be prepared when going through the loan process.

They must plan for the down payment whether it’s the minimum of 10 percent or the more common 30 percent.

The down payment can’t be borrowed, but it can be gifted by parents. The down payment must also be documented with three months of bank statements. It’s a very straight forward, upfront requirement.

There is, again, sometimes exceptions to rules. There’re only maybe one or two scenarios for an existing business that has been operating for at least three years. If this business needs a line of credit, they can rely on the equity the business has earned, similar to equity a homeowner develops over time. Similarly, the lender will analyze the financial report, credit scores, income and the value of the business to determine if the business owner is a viable candidate.

Hurdle #3: Credit Score The credit score criterion is very straight-forward. Most lenders require a score of 680 or above. If a business owner has the minimum, they immediately move on to the next round of the process. It’s that cut and dry. If a business owner is at or below 680, it is typically an automatic no from the lender. If a business has multiple owners, this rule applies to all owners of the business. So, if one owner has a score of 700 and another has a score of 600, it is going to kill any chance of financing. The 700 does not offset it, nor do they take the average the two. If it takes both owners to run the business, then they both have to meet the qualifier.

There is only one way to jump this hurdle if your score does not meet the requirement. You must repair your credit.

Most credit bureaus now offer a tool on their website that will tell you what you need to do to get your score up and how long will it take for that to occur. These business owners have to go back and address their credit issues, get them resolved, and get their score up.

Hurdle #4: Difficulties Associated with Providing Required Documentation Once a business owner completes the aforementioned steps, they still face an application package from the lender with a checklist of documents required. This can be a very challenging part of the process for some business owners who are not privy to what documentation is required.

Not being prepared, could delay the process significantly. Many applicants think that they can send one piece of documentation at a time and that the lender is processing

these documents as they come in, but that is just not the case. The lender will create a file and wait until every document is submitted before they even begin the evaluation process. This can sometimes take weeks or even months, if the borrower is not prepared.

Because obtaining a business loan is something that typically happens once in a lifetime, not every business owner knows what documentation is needed to move forward. It is important to seek guidance before attempting the process. If seeking outside guidance to help you through the process, it is important to find someone with inside knowledge, who can provide the required checklist before the lending process with the bank even begins. This will help you gather all of the information beforehand and allow you to avoid any type of delay with your loan.

It is important to note that there are two checklists involved in the process – the application checklist and the closing checklist. In order to make the process go as smoothly and quickly as possible, it is important to be prepared for both checklists ahead of time.

Hurdle #5: Finding the Right Lender

This is probably the most crucial hurdle in the entire process. If a business owner completes every task, and jumps every hurdle, only to find out that they did it for the wrong bank, they just wasted their time.

For example, if the business is a startup, but the bank they apply to does not invest in startups, then the entire process was for nothing.

Like any other part of owning a business, it is important for the business owner to do research. Again, there are resources out there that can help match the business owner to the right lending source, so they have the best opportunity to succeed.

It may be hard for a business owner to determine the right match on their own because lenders often have a loan goal they must meet in order to keep their job, so they are not going to turn down an opportunity even if they know it’s not a right fit.

That’s not an efficient way for the borrower to find a lender.

It’s better to know which lender will have the greater opportunity for success, so that you don’t have to do the entire process again with someone new.

Though the process of obtaining a business loan may seem daunting to tackle alone, if you have the right resources in your corner, any hurdle is possible. It is important to remember that there is usually an exception to every rule. If you don’t get approved the first time around, learning from mistakes will help you be successful the second time.

OPINION

DOMENICK J. MAGLIO, PH.D.

Traditional Realist

'The government took my job, damn capitalism'

On a recent visit to Daytona Beach it was quite windy and I feared that my own little cabana would blow away. I decided to rent an umbrella and chairs from the local truck that rented them for $30 per day. They asked for $40 this time instead of the $30 that had been the standard for years. The worker told me the price was mandated across the board by Volusia County government. I checked with another competitor down the beach to verify the government pricing not only of the umbrella and chairs but the fact that government would now take a percentage of the yearly profits. The businessman would not only have to pay the county an increased percentage of profits but in addition would be mandated to pay a minimum wage of

$10 per hour for each worker.

The worker said this arrangement was causing a layoff of employees to install the umbrellas and chairs in order to maintain a profit. Then he shockingly and angrily said, “The government is taking my job, damn capitalism.” This utterance was bizarre on two fronts. First this young man knew the county made the economic decision to change the business model. The local authorities confiscated the proprietor’s capitalistic rights to set up his business according to his own vision. This was ripped away by capricious government.

The percentage of the income taken by the government from the business was now in the hands of government bureaucrats rather than the proprietor. Yet this naïve and simplistic young man aimed his injustice at capitalism not on the real culprit: local government confiscating private businesses.

These private businesses have lost the right to do their business in a rational competitive manner as any owner deemed fit.

This episode vividly demonstrates that our young people do not understand the difference between capitalism/ free market and central government control of our economy. “Damn capitalism” in this situation should be a frightening indictment of the chilling ignorance of our free market economy by our citizens. The lack of understanding of the difference between these two systems weakens our knowledge leaving the citizens vulnerable to a socialist take over. Americans need to understand how free market wealth is accumulated and

dispersed throughout the United States.

Without this knowledge the public will be susceptible to charlatans selling us a bill of goods that is too good to be true. It will lay the foundation for the raping of our material wealth to leave us as a Venezuelan-like skeleton of our once great nation. It can actually happen.

The older generation has personally seen too many countries go down the socialist/ communist path ending in complete and utter economic and cultural devastation.

China, Cuba, Cambodia, Argentina, Yugoslavia and currently Venezuela have been examples. These leaders sold out their people’s sovereignty for personal economic advancement and glorification. Inevitably the country’s politicos had to focus on restrictions to keep the people from leaving rather than entering their decaying nations.

This is a repressive failure.

Many young US voters and older ideologues (Hippies) pathetically want another opportunity to redistribute the wealth that hardworking Americans earned. They do not want the common good and freedom of the people to determine their own destiny.

The absurd promises of free everything and relief from all of one’s debts is hard for most citizens to resist. This mirage of promised lies can only be overcome by a clear knowledge of historical evidence that shows everyone loses except the politico elites.

Only by teaching factual history can these appeals be recognized as unworkable utopian notions that lead to chaos, violence

Stumps and Bails and Crooked Sticks

Cricket bails

I started watching Cricket.

I didn’t mean to, but for lack of anything better on television, I couldn’t help it. The sport has always baffled me, so when I thumb-stumbled across a show that featured highlights of previous matches, I decided to see if I could figure it out. I couldn’t.

I later discovered on the same channel a live game in which teams were competing for the World Cup! So I watched, and nearly nine hours later I understood most of it, with help from my phone now and then.

A tournament is actually short, with a limited number of pitches, while other games can last five days.

You may have heard the phrase “sticky wicket” in movies and shows by someone of English heritage when describing a conundrum. I always thought the wicket was the bat, but it’s not. The wicket is that construction of uprights and cross-pieces at both ends of the long rectangle of tan grass or clay in the middle of the field on which the guy with the ball, the bowler, pitches to the guy with the bat, the batsman. Understandably, the rectangle is called the pitch. A wicket is sticky when the pieces are sodden

GOOFY STUFF

By VINCENT CARDEGIN from inclement weather and don’t fall apart like they’re supposed to when hit.

The uprights are called stumps, and the cross-pieces are bails. The intent is to get a batsman out by knocking them down. But outs can also be achieved by catching a ball in the air, and by some sort of computerized imaging program that will predict whether or not a ball that hits a batsman’s leg would have hit the wicket had the batsman not been in the way.

What? I don’t like that at all.

Whichever way, an out is always called a Wicket. Back in the 1700s there were only two stumps and one bail, but after a nobleman rolled several balls through the center without touching the stumps, he added a middle one. Now days the middle stump has a camera, and the outer stumps and both bails will blink like a cop car when disturbed. That’s really cool.

The word ‘Wicket’ is from an old word meaning ‘Gate,’ and historians think it refers to the opening in a fence though which a

MINISTER / CHAPLAIN

The Lord will bless his people with peace

Recently, I had the opportunity to sit with a nice elderly lady and she was sharing with me about her health issues and other concerns. Suddenly she stopped and wanted to know if she could ask me a serious question.

I said of course, and she proceeded to relay that she felt silly asking me about salvation, especially with her being a church member since she was a child.

Her question was, “How can I really know that I am going to heaven?” I do not believe this is anything to be

sheepherder led his flock out to feed and back for the night. The name ‘Cricket’ is derived from some other ancient term meaning ‘Crooked Stick,’ which long ago looked like a smaller version of the one used in hockey today. (Seems to me, then, that Wicket could have meant “walk between the sticks,” hmm?)

Originally the ball was rolled across the ground, and that is why the pitcher is still called a bowler. Now, and for a long time, the ball is thrown overhand for one bounce, and as in Baseball the bowler can use several techniques for spinning.

Those are best watched in slow motion with closeups of the bowler’s hand.

Each six pitches is called an Over, because after those six (or sometimes more because of errors) the bowler and batsman swap places, or “switch over,” and a new bowler steps up. Bowlers cannot pitch two Overs in a row. Over really confused me at first, and I viewed the switches as innings. Even after I understood Overs, I still thought of them as mini-innings. Hey, I’ll call them “minnings.” That even sounds British. What’s See GOOFY, Page 20

embarrassed about, in fact, it’s rather common as I’ve actually examined my own soul from time to time. I could sense the heaviness of doubt was stealing her spiritual joy, and this can escalate into fear and anxiety. I spent some time reminding her of the basic fundamentals pertaining to faith and God’s truth which can never fail. I suggested that she just be honest with God and tell him how she feels. After I left, I continued to think about how easy it is for any of us to drift away from the peaceful harbor of hope and encouragement and how important it is to keep a positive perspective and remain focused on God’s promises.

The opposite of peace is being anxious and many times we experience fear and worry when we are uncertain of what is going to happen. This negative energy has the intention to consume us and control our mind and will continue to haunt us until we choose to battle against it. Spiritual warfare is a reality and it’s the believer’s responsibility to call on the Lord for help as we defend against the darkness of panic, pity, and depression. Living in peace is not something that happens naturally, but rather is a learned behavior. People or circumstances cannot dictate our thoughts, we choose our response and reaction.

We talk about our need to trust God and how we must stand strong in the times of

and repression. We need Americans to disregard PC propaganda and openly debate to short-circuit the indoctrination process.

Our older, wiser citizens have a responsibility to our nation’s youth to pass on our great, actual and not revisionist history.

We should never allow our young people to believe our free market capitalism is “a privileged system,” which favors one group over another. It is an open competitive economy that encourages opportunity for anyone who can produce better and more positive results.

We should reject the falsehood that a businessman or corporation is too big to fail. This is a basic distortion of capitalism. In capitalism, “any king of the hill” loses its edge to a new and better business, invention or service and should be replaced by the new, more efficient ones. Redistributing the property of others that has been rightfully earned results in robbery and is a disincentive for industriousness. To “damn capitalism” through pure ignorance would be the greatest mistake and sin that would damn the United States to a world we do not want.

The rejection of experience The importance of college degrees has risen, resulting in a depreciation of the importance of experience. To many people, unless you have a degree in something, you cannot possibly be very knowledgeable on the subject no matter how much experience you have in it.

One of the inventors of public key encryption, Whitfield Diffie, testified in the Newegg trial. Diffie is a legend in technology circles.

Without his work on the Diffie-Hellman algorithm, it would not be possible to securely do anything on the Internet. That lock you see in your web browser is only there because of Diffie's work.The opposing counsel in the Newegg trial, Marc Fenster, did not accept Diffie's expert testimony, but instead went on the attack- interrogating Diffie about his level of education. Fenster asked if Diffie had a master's degree. He then pointed out Diffie did not have a doctorate. He then asked if he was a professor, which he was not. These attacks led the jury to find Diffie as not credible and awarded significant money to Marc Fenster's side.

It should not have been possible to attack Diffie's credentials. A long line of well known technology experts could have been called to vouch for his importance. The idea that it would be possible to dismiss Diffie's achievements, because of his lack of an advanced degree, would never have crossed the minds of people who understand what he developed. If a great contributor of our time can be discredited because he does not have an advanced degree, it points to an over reliance on degrees.

Another example of this was in 2011 when MSNBC Host Contessa Brewer decided to challenge US Representative Mo Brooks during a discussion of the consequences of raising the debt limit by asking him if he had a degree in economics.

Mr. Brooks responded to the query, "Yes ma'am, I do. Highest honors."

Although Mr. Brooks had the perfect answer to the question, there was an assumption in the question

adversity, but this state of mind will require persistent prayer and self-discipline. Faith believes that God can see into the future and that nothing surprises him which includes him understanding the trials we are going through and all of the situations we will encounter. Being convinced that Christ will provide for us along with accepting that his power is greater than any problem that might threaten us can bring comfort and assurance. Constantly reminding ourselves that God listens to us and that he is aware of everything that is going on in our lives can help us to trust and rest in his perfect peace.

Psalm 29:11 promises, “The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.”

There is no greater confidence or joy than to be filled with God’s peace. Spiritual peace is far beyond our physical emotions as his ways are higher than our ways and his thoughts are higher than our thoughts.

His peace is stronger than our fears and chases away our worries and anxieties as it floods our heart with courage and fortitude.

Jesus is victorious and his promises are guaranteed to quiet our soul and replace our restlessness with his safety and contentment.

Proverbs 3:24 reminds us, “When you lie down, you will not be afraid; when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.” One of the many names for Jesus is the Prince of

that was ignored by almost everyone. That assumption was that in order to understand economics you had to have a degree in economics.

At that point Mr. Brooks had served in Congress for 29 years, he was elected in 1982. He had been involved in developing trillion dollar budgets for many years. He had seen the results of debt limit fights of the past. Yet somehow a couple of years of general economic theory was considered more important for understanding the implications of failing to raise the debt ceiling to years of making those actual decisions.

Everyone seemed to accept that Mrs. Brewer had asked a valid question although an uninformed one, since Mr. Brooks did have an economics degree. If Mr. Brooks did not have a degree many listening would have discounted what he had to say not because of an issue with his argument, but his lack of credentials.

Often something learned by doing is better understood than something that was taught to us.

When you are being taught, the teachers and curriculum developers allow you to avoid the pitfalls and deadends, but those painful experiences make for a deeper understanding. In computer programming, experience can often be substituted for education. Many job descriptions will allow applicants for a position with a lesser degree, but more experience.

A college education is important, but we must also recognize experience.

peace and soon, He will return and establish his kingdom of peace for all eternity. We rejoice in this truth and look forward to experiencing the freedom from conflict and fear, but we do not need to wait until then to embrace this lifestyle of calmness.

If we choose to abide in God’s presence no matter how intense the storms are raging, we are supported under the shadow of his protection. The world growing darker and chaos increasing cannot limit or diminish our hope and peace. It is only when we drift away from his truth and lean on our own understanding that we become troubled and perplexed. The Lord is giving us an offer that we must not refuse which is to give him our worries in exchange for the tranquility of his presence. Listen to Paul’s encouragement found in Philippians 4:6-7, “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

Teddy hails from a family of performers.

Eddie Toye, his father, has been in a band almost all of Teddy’s life. Teddy grew up around the band and later on joined as a drummer in high school.

Teddy’s mom, Gina Toye, isn't necessarily a performer but she took on the role of helping backstage in every production that he and his sister Amber were involved in growing up.

She also drove them to the dance studio, and worked the front desk at the studio. “She may not be a performer but has always been super involved in everything we did,” Teddy said. “Mom is the backbone to everyone in the family,” Eddie remarked about his wife.

Teddy’s family attends almost every one of his performances. “They are really supportive and I know they are really proud of me,” Teddy said.

“He has followed his dreams his entire life.

We’re just beaming with pride,” said Gina Toye.

Teddy and Amber have both been there for one another, cheering the other on and being each other's biggest fans. “If they’re happy, then we’re happy,” Gina added.

After he graduated he toured with the production of High School Musical where he played the role of Ripper. He has had many theatre jobs and dancing gigs like taking part in Cher Lloyd’s performance on “America’s Got Talent.”

It took him many auditions before he started performing on Broadway and his first Broadway show, “Lysistrata Jones,” started out in a church basement.

They were performing for about 100 people a night.

After the New York Times released a positive review of the off-Broadway “Lysistrata Jones,” it became an official Broadway show.

Teddy played the character Harold in “Lysistrata Jones.” He has also performed in “Bring it On.” His most recent show is “Prom.” Prom opened on Broadway November 15, 2018 and will close August 11, 2019.

“I’m 30 but still playing a high school jock on stage,” said Teddy. Prom has been in production since 2015 when they presented it to producers and investors. It was then shown at the Alliance Theatre a year later. “I've been very fortunate to have been kept as a part of this show for so long,” Teddy said.

He has played many roles but so far his favorite role has been in the production “Prom” or as Harold in “Lysistrata Jones.” About his roles for both productions, Teddy commented, “I had a say in how the part was shaped and they’re both a lot of fun to play.”

He also recently appeared on the Tony Awards where 6,000 seats are filled with stars in theatre and film. “It was pretty incredible, an absolute bucket list item for me,” Teddy reflected. The cast of “Prom” was included in the opening number this

The amount of shows Teddy has performed in is countless, but he has been a part of about 20 big productions, either regionally, touring, or on Broadway.

During his free time you can find him out on the golf course, going to concerts, creating music, choreographing dances with his friends, playing sports or at the gym.

Live Oak Theatre’s Ely Walters Invited to Return to New York for a Second Time Within a Six-Month Period

Brooksville, Florida (July 16, 2019) – Live Oak Theatre is proud to announce that Ely Walters, age 16, was invited to return to New York for a second time and was honored with performing on stage at Carnegie Hall. Ely previously performed at Radio City Music Hall opening the Christmas spectacular for the Rockettes. He was immediately invited to return as part of Camp Broadway. This time he was asked to perform with the New York Pops Orchestra in Carnegie Hall for their 36th birthday gala along with 39 other children. The performance was a tribute to the contributions of Cyndi Lauper. Camp Broadway’s trained Broadway professionals taught vocals and choreography to the group to perform “Raise You Up” at the gala. The song was taken from Cyndi Lauper’s six-time Tony winning British musical, Kinky Boots.

During Camp Broadway Ely made an impression and landed the first solo on the first day, later performing it for Ms. Lauper at her request. This further enabled Ely to perform next to legends in music such as Lena Hall, Ingrid Michaelson, and Stark Sands. Ely is a member of the Live Oak Conservatory as a vocal and dance student and Live Oak Theatre’s repertory company. He recently performed as Joseph in Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat and as Jesus in Godspell. He also appeared in a film produced by Live Oak’s award-winning film company, Root and Branch Films, and actively promotes the benefits of Live Oak as a community theater. While maintaining an A average, Ely also attends church, volunteers in the community and spends time with family and friends.

About Camp Broadway Camp Broadway’s programs adhere to the belief that engagement in the theater is an effective strategy in helping parents and educators teach their children about becoming responsible, ethical adults. If further interested go to CampBroadway.com.
