Sizzlin’ summer

T

© LILA PHOTO

he summer issue is always a blast to put together, and this year was no different. For one thing, I got to meet wildlife conservationist Jeff Corwin, whom I’ve been watching explore nature on television for years. Jeff has a passion for protecting animals and nature, and he is enamored with our area. He does a lot of work in Martin County, particularly around Hobe Sound and Stuart (he’s on the board of the Hobe Sound Nature Center), and plans on moving down here full-time soon.

He also revealed to us that he has a new network TV show in the works that will be all about Florida. Turn to page 40 to learn more about Jeff and the work he’s doing in “Wild, Wild World.”

I also got to spend a lot of time with one of my favorite creatures on the planet: dogs! We decided it would be fun to feature a few local men and their four-legged friends in this issue, and that means I met a lot of sweet pups (and their handsome main men too, which wasn’t too painful, wink wink). Get to know these cute dude and dog duos in “Hot Dawg!,” beginning on page 46.

In The Local section, which starts on page 27, we take a peek at the plans for the Treasure Coast Agriplex, a 100-acre property in the works that will not only be the new home of the Martin County Fair but will also offer amenities like an agriculture farm, gardens, a livestock arena, motocross tracks, an equestrian center, archery, and more. We also offer a few suggestions for hot beach reads in case you’re looking for a new book to get lost in this summer.

Enjoy our July/August issue, and we’ll see you in the fall!

Peace and blessings,

Michelle Lee Ribeiro michelle@stuartmagazine.com @mleerib

Sensational summertime

KEITH LORIGAN

I

t’s time to slow down and enjoy a less hectic schedule than the hustle and bustle of our winter months. Summer is a time to enjoy some much-needed R&R, vacations, and family time. Pools are warm enough to swim in without putting on the heater, as are our amazing ocean waters. Living in Florida since I was 10 years old has thinned my blood, as they say, and I love being able to enjoy a dip without a shiver. Family and friends who visit during the winter months always think I’m silly when I complain that it’s too cool to swim when the water temperature drops below 73 degrees!

Summertime also affords the perfect opportunity to support our local businesses. Try a new restaurant that may be hard to get into when the snowbirds are here or do some shopping at a local boutique. Staycations are wonderful too. Many Florida resorts have special offers for residents, so why not plan a long weekend “getaway” close to home? The beaches and area trails are also a bit quieter than they are in February, and the best time to get fresh air is early in the morning or in the evening when the sun isn’t quite so blistering. In the hours after sunrise, our beaches are glorious, often with water that’s flat and serene like a lake, and one of my favorite ways to take in nature. I love catching up with my reading list, both in the quiet of my backyard and during quick travels.

Like all good things, summer will pass quickly, and before we know it busy season will be here again. Looking toward the fall, don’t miss our promotional Faces of Martin & St. Lucie Counties profiles, as well as our annual Charity Datebook, both running in the October issue. If you are interested in advertising in either of these special sections, please don’t hesitate to contact me. Now is also a good time to reach out about any charity-related or other events happening toward the end of 2023 and into 2024 that you would like us to support.

Please keep in touch, and stay in the know by signing up for our Insider’s Guide newsletter online at stuartmagazine.com.

See you in September—until then, have a wonderful summer!

HOT SUMMER Reads

W

hat’s better than hitting the beach, slipping off your flip-flops, and settling under an umbrella with a cool drink and a captivating new book? We rounded up six hot recent releases, catering to different tastes, starting with our pick for the ultimate light summer page turner: The Five-Star Weekend by Elin Hilderbrand. Dubbed “The Queen of Beach Reads”

by The New York Times, Hilderbrand is most known for writing romance novels set on Nantucket Island. But her latest book is more about friendship. The plot: When Hollis Shaw invites four friends from different stages of her life for a stay on Nantucket, she expects a weekend something like a Hallmark movie. Instead, the imperfections of four vastly different lives are revealed, leading to self-discovery and the ultimate power of friendship and love (Little, Brown and Company; June 12, 2023). —Valerie Staggs (Turn the page for five more summer book recommendations.)

FOR FICTION FANS The Late Americans

by Brandon Taylor

FOR ROMANTICS Mrs. Nash’s Ashes

by Sarah Adler

One of the most highly anticipated novels of the year by the author of Booker Prize finalist Real Life (2020), this complex novel explores the lives of a circle of four young friends and lovers as they challenge and provoke one another during a year of self-discovery.

Exploring the nuances of love, sex, ambition, and insecurity, The Late Americans is a contemporary picture of young people striving to find themselves.

(Riverhead Books; May 23, 2023)

When Millicent Watts-Cohen makes a promise to reunite her elderly best friend with the woman she fell in love with 80 years ago, she never envisioned it would turn into a cross-country road trip with three tablespoons of Mrs. Nash’s remains in her backpack—and a personal journey.

Forced to catch a ride with a cynical acquaintance of her ex, Millie begins to realize the trip isn’t just about Mrs. Nash’s love story— maybe it’s also about her own. A charming, funny tale about just how unpredictable love stories can be. (Berkley Books; May 23, 2023)

he Martin County Fair will soon have a new home.

For six decades, the annual event has been one of the most popular on the Treasure Coast, drawing more than 70,000 people each year. And now the Martin County Fair Association—the fair’s hosting organization—is moving to a new site: the Treasure Coast Agriplex.

“The fair has outgrown the current location, so we’re moving just east of Indiantown Airport on Citrus Boulevard to a 100-acre property,” says Jay Spicer, executive director and fair manager of the Martin County Fair Association.

Familiarly known as the TC Agriplex, the project goes well beyond providing Martin County with new fairgrounds, with a slew of other activities and amenities planned on the property. “In the grand scheme of things, the fair is a tiny part of all this,” Spicer says. “We are going to be providing life-changing experiences for children at the TC Agriplex through educational components and by partnering with a wide variety of community nonprofits and organizations for different events throughout the year.”

The TC Agriplex aims to become Martin County’s top center for agricultural education through Agland Farm, where visitors will be able to learn about sustainable agriculture, food production and safety, organics, and more by experiencing the Agriplex’s agriculture museum and working farm with animals, gardens, and a livestock arena. Other exciting and unique features include an archery center, an equestrian

Eco-Friendly Habits Tips from local experts on how to help the environment by reducing waste in your daily life b y H O L LY M A R T I N E Z

T

he three Rs of environmental stewardship—reduce, reuse, recycle—are foundational in the efforts to protect our planet. Of the three, “reduce” may be the hardest for individuals to implement in their daily lives. Luckily, these Treasure Coast residents are setting some good examples for how to create small habits that add up to a big, positive impact.

Rachael Delekta, board member at Keep Martin Beautiful Focus: Founder of the blog chasingteddy.com (named for Theodore Roosevelt and his legacy of conservation policies), Stuart resident Rachael Delekta regularly picks up trash around Martin County and documents what she collects on her blog to encourage people to think about the waste they produce and how they can mitigate it.

Tip: “Reducing waste is a process of being thoughtful and making one change at a time,” says Delekta. Follow her lead and take the time to pick up trash when you see it rather than walking on by. Delekta also encourages replacing disposable household items with eco-friendly options like reusable paper towels and aluminum straws to reduce the use of plastic and paper.

Laura Issac, outreach project coordinator at Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute Focus: Issac leads Harbor Branch’s Keep the Sea Free of Debris program, which teaches local teens about harmful marine debris through weeklong camps.

Tip: A big part of runoff waste affecting local waterways is chemicals found in sunscreen, which is why Isaac promotes lathering responsibly. “Common chemicals in sunscreen affect corals’ immune systems, reproduction, and DNA,” she says.

“Florida’s reefs are getting very sick. Use reef-safe sunscreen, which utilizes minerals rather than chemicals to protect our

skin from UV rays— plus, it’s healthier for humans too.”

Mary Jarrell, first-grade teacher, and Rachael Sharp, media specialist, at Warfield Elementary School in Indiantown Focus: Jarrell and Sharp helped lead their school’s effort to become a designated Green School, a program established by the FAU Pine Jog Environmental Education Center. “Due to the pandemic, the program ended in 2021, but our Green School efforts did not,” Jarrell says. The school has implemented green habits like enhancing school grounds through vegetable and butterfly gardens, using energy-efficient lighting, sorting trash, recycling, composting, and collecting clothing donations to be reused for local Dress for Success programs aimed at helping women in the workforce.

Tip: “At home, it’s easy to recycle items instead of throwing them away,” says Sharp. “Don’t throw away old clothes—donate them at a clothing drop-off center. Also, Publix has a drop-off where people can bring their plastic bags so they don’t end up in a landfill.”

Jennifer Pelham, county extension director at UF’s Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences Extension Martin County Focus: Pelham leads training programs via Florida Friendly Landscaping, a statewide program run through the University of Florida that aims to teach landscaping professionals and homeowners how to reduce pollution while still having beautiful landscapes so Florida’s natural resources are protected.

Tip: “The majority of our work relates to reducing runoff and waste, including stormwater runoff,” says Pelham. “Don’t let anything go down the storm drain but water, especially grass clippings and fertilizer, which can release harmful chemicals into waterways.” Pelham suggests blowing grass clippings and fertilizer away from sidewalks, driveways, and roads to avoid drains.

“We also suggest composting grass clippings. If a compost bin on site is not possible, make sure you only put lawn waste out during landscape debris pickup—not on regular garbage pickup days—so it does not end up in our landfills.” ❖

Orchestrating Greatness AS THE PALM BEACH SYMPHONY GETS READY TO CELEBRATE 50 YEARS THIS COMING SEASON, WE CAUGHT UP WITH ITS CEO, JUPITER NATIVE DAVID MCCLYMONT b y PA I G E F E I G E N B A U M | P h o t o g r a p h y b y N I C K M E L E

avid McClymont recalls his family having a season subscription to the old Burt Reynolds Dinner Theatre from the time he was 6 years old. It was that early introduction to the arts that planted the seed for what was to come.

A product of the Jupiter school system, McClymont was a sporty kid, inheriting his athletic ability from his father, a former hockey player turned sailor. His father owned one of the first full-service auto repair shops in town, Dave’s Truck and Auto, which was located where

Blackbird Modern Asian now is. “That was back when Jupiter was a tiny little saltwater fishing and surfing town,” says McClymont, now 53.

He worked at his dad’s shop so he could buy his first surfboard and joined Island Water Sports’ surf team and Jupiter High’s surf team. He eventually landed a Billabong sponsorship, and surfing took him all over the country as a teen, competing against some of the greats, including Kelly and Sean Slater.

But since pro surfing is never a certain career plan, he enrolled in Palm Beach

State College as a finance major.

After graduation, he worked as an investment advisor at UBS in Fort Lauderdale before deciding to take a year off to play golf and rethink his career path. He joined the team at Bear Lakes Country Club in West Palm Beach, working his way up over the next 15 years to clubhouse manager and assistant general manager. In 2010, he landed at Loggerhead Marinelife Center as CEO. That’s where he caught the eye of Dale McNulty, former board president of the Palm Beach Symphony, who was conducting a nationwide search for a new CEO at the time. In October 2013, McClymont stepped into the role.

“To be able to work for the symphony and make a difference in my backyard was incredibly humbling and inspiring,” MClymont says. “[McNulty] really gave me the opportunity to come in and build off the relationships I had from being in this community my entire life, both personally and professionally.”

When McClymont joined the team, the symphony was operating without a budget, was spending more than it made, and had only one part-time employee. The new CEO wasted no time changing that, working with the board to form a finance committee, engage an auditing firm, write a budget, sign sponsorships, and hire the right staff.

Within a year and a half, the symphony

broke even—and has been profitable ever since. “We had basically gone from red to black, and we never turned back,” McClymont says, noting that revenue has grown to $4.2 million.

He credits his staff with the symphony’s success. “There becomes this infectious cycle when you surround yourself with people who are hardworking, smart, committed, kind, ethical, have strong character, and believe in the mission that a rising tide lifts all boats,” he says. “Everybody needs to be playing the same sheet of music in an orchestrated fashion or you’re not going to be successful.”

Focusing on the symphony’s three pillars—engage, educate, and entertain— McClymont and his team made shows more accessible to a wider audience by offering tiered pricing including $10 student and teacher tickets. Over the past decade, the organization has also educated close to 70,000 local students by hosting free children’s concerts at the Kravis Center, in-class coaching sessions, and master classes. Additionally, the symphony distributes complimentary tickets to students from Title I schools in the area and awards multiple scholarships annually. In the past year alone, the symphony has donated 150 instruments to help young musicians reach their full potential.

“The only way we stand a chance to sustain this beautiful art form for the

next couple of hundred years is if we continue to get into schools at an early age,” McClymont says.

As he readies for the symphony’s fiftieth anniversary season, which begins in November, the father of four is taking some time to enjoy his hometown. The avid sportsman frequents pockets that have remained largely unchanged over the last 30 or so years, like the Jupiter Inlet, DuBois Park, and a remote fishing spot in Jupiter Farms where he likes to take his 12-year-old son, Mason. “There’s something in my veins with Jupiter,” he says. “Even with all the growth, it’s such an incredible town. ❖

Golden Anniversary

The Palm Beach Symphony’s fiftieth season kicks off in mid-November, and McClymont says music director and maestro Gerard Schwarz has attracted top-notch guest artists to celebrate the milestone. Pianists Yefim Bronfman, Vladimir Feltsman, Emanuel Ax, and Ignat Solzhenitsyn and violinists Akiko Suwanai and Pinchas Zukerman will perform six solo concerts; the symphony will also present four world symphony premieres by eminent composers.

ne of the greatest rewards boat manufacturers can receive for their efforts is brand loyalty from their customers. Boat owners who faithfully return to the same brand over the years as they work their way up, or even laterally, through a series of new models demonstrate something of great importance to any builder—customer satisfaction.

For Tom and Denise O’Brien of Jupiter, loyalty and satisfaction are exactly what led to the purchase of their Grady-White Fisherman 257. The O’Briens’ 15-year history with the brand began with an Escape 209 (before the Fisherman 257 came along), and the couple is already thinking about which Grady-White model they might choose next, should a larger boat be in their future.

(Hint: It’s a Canyon Series.)

For the time being, the Fisherman 257 suits their fishing and cruising needs perfectly. With previous coastal experience fishing around their summer residence in New Jersey, the sheer variety of opportunities offered by our local waters has been an exciting change of pace for the O’Briens. And with a perfect balance of comfort and fishability, the Fisherman 257 has opened lots of new possibilities for the couple in Florida.

For the avid angler, this model offers many of the features necessary to be both successful and efficient. Three insulated

back most is the ride itself. The company’s original SeaV2 hull design offers a continuously variable deadrise bottom, which results in one of the softest and driest ride experiences in its class. The combination of stability at rest, confident tracking underway, and spray deflection provided by down-angle chines and lifting strakes all work together to provide an extremely comfortable experience even on the choppiest of days.

espite its historic reputation, New Orleans is a city in constant evolution. Part of the thrill of such a destination is the promise of duality, where you can plant one foot in the past and another in the future.

Dine at a modern Mexican restaurant, then catch a show at a jazz joint that dates to the 1950s. Discover the city’s cultural heritage via interactive displays at Vue Orleans before savoring a Sazerac at Peychaud’s cocktail bar and embarking on a ghost tour. Or simply post up on a veranda and soak in the sounds of the city as you scroll Front porch at Hotel through social media to decide where Saint Vincent to grab lunch (but hurry, because Turkey and the Wolf’s stoner-friendly sandwiches often sell out).

Such a veranda—and then some—

can be found at Hotel Saint Vincent (saintvincentnola. com). MML Hospitality resurrected this circa-1861 building (which had its first life as an orphanage) and debuted the hotel in June 2021. From the red brick to the wrought iron, many of the original exterior architectural flourishes remain. Inside, however, sophisticated Italian decadence commingles with mid-century furnishings and cool 1970s elements such as vintage Murano glass chandeliers. There’s a hint of hedonism across the 75 rooms and suites, all unique in their layouts but inclusive of retro-tiled bathrooms awash in a custom psychedelic wallpaper by Voutsa.

Italian vibes continue at the on-site San Lorenzo restaurant, while the adjacent Elizabeth Street Café serves French-Vietnamese DENNY CULBERT

fare with a Creole tinge. Think: a fried shrimp banh mi with Cajun hot sauce, plus daily special macarons like orange Creamsicle and mint chocolate chip. You can also get your cocktail on—a beloved Big Easy pastime no matter the era—at the Paradise Lounge, the Chapel Club, or a poolside bar.

One of Hotel Saint Vincent’s draws is its location within the Lower Garden District. Not only is this neighborhood supremely walkable, but it’s also far enough from the more touristy corners to remain insulated from the intense crowds. However, should the French Quarter call, it is just a quick Uber or trolley ride away.

Highlights within the Garden District itself range from gallery hopping to ogling nineteenth-century mansions and side-hall homes. Along the way, pop in and out of local watering holes like The Bower and Barrel Proof before a dinner reservation at Lengua Madre (lenguamadrenola.com). This spot by Chef Ana Castro has garnered an avalanche of accolades, including being named one of Bon Appetit’s best new restaurants in America and landing on The New York Times’ 2021 list of the country’s 50 most delicious and vibrant restaurants. Herself a 2023 James Beard nominee for Best Chef: South, Castro crafts multicourse tasting menus that change seasonally, reflect her Mexican heritage, and celebrate Southern ingredients. The meal is a surprise—with the menu only presented at the end—but recent highlights have included a traditional quesadilla with crawfish gobernador and trout roe and octopus with salsa negra, little gem lettuce, and a coffee-forward aioli.

To get the full scope of Southern cooking, head to the nearby Southern Food & Beverage Museum (southernfood.org). Belly up to the circa-1850s bar pulled from one of New Orleans’ oldest restaurants, peruse the Galerie d’Absinthe, or learn about the city’s rich culinary history, from red beans and rice to Popeyes and beyond. The museum also hosts cooking classes that provide a hands-on introduction to such staples as jambalaya and gumbo.

One woman who is becoming synonymous with New Orleans cuisine—in the same vein as Emeril Lagasse, Leah Chase, and Willie Mae Seaton—is Nina Compton. A Top Chef finalist and

2023 James Beard semifinalist for Outstanding Chef, Compton operates two NOLA restaurants: Bywater American Bistro and Compère Lapin (comperelapin. com), which translates to “brother rabbit,” a figure in Caribbean and Creole folktales. This reference alludes to Compton’s playful marriage of the two cultures as seen in dishes such as hamachi tartare with jerk pineapple and fried okra, her signature curried goat served atop sweet potato gnocchi and garnished with cashews, and her addictive scialatielli, which eats like a Creole carbonara, dotted with crawfish and andouille.

Compère Lapin is part of the city’s Warehouse Arts District, which is also home to attractions including the National World War II Museum, the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, and Mardi Gras World, where you can check out the event’s famous floats year-round. For a more off-the-beaten-path stop, walk to the other side of the French Quarter to visit Studio Be (studiobenola. com). The resident gallery for artist Brandan “BMike” Odums, Studio Be covers some 35,000 square feet and boasts floor-toceiling artworks that reflect the spirit of New Orleans and those who call it home.

Speaking of spirits, few American cities have as much ghost lore as New Orleans. If you have a penchant for spooky stuff and plan to explore the French Quarter, do so on a ghost tour. Given the destination’s association with hauntings, vampire sightings, and everything voodoo, there’s no shortage of companies offering these types of experiences both day and night. A standout is NOLA Historic Tours and its Haunted French Quarter Tour (tourneworleans.com). Start at the iconic St. Louis Cathedral to hear the tale of Père Dagobert, followed by stories of the Old Ursuline Convent’s casket girls, the gregarious ghoul who demands his own table at Muriel’s restaurant, and the city’s most notorious murderess, Madame Delphine LaLaurie.

The LaLaurie Mansion, like much of New Orleans, has grown beyond its physical constraints to occupy a distinct place in the imaginations of travelers. The mansion’s insidious reputation has attracted tourists for generations, and the city’s promise of debauchery continues to entice. But should you choose to explore beyond Bourbon Street, you’ll find that New Orleans never plays anything the same way twice. neworleans.com ❖

TV star Jeff Corwin has explored the planet in his quest to preserve and protect the wonders of nature. Now the wildlife conservationist is getting ready to make Florida his main focus—with a move to Martin County on the horizon and a new network series aimed at preserving our state’s natural beauty in the works.

eff Corwin has been a fixture on our television screens for decades, traveling the world as a biologist and wildlife conservationist on hit shows like Disney Channel’s Going Wild with Jeff Corwin, Animal Planet’s The Jeff Corwin Experience, ABC’s Ocean Treks with Jeff Corwin, and Wildlife Nation with Jeff Corwin, which airs Saturdays on ABC. But although he has been to remote parts of the world in places like Alaska and Cambodia, it is right here in Florida where he says he most loves to explore.

“Florida is replete with incredible habitats found nowhere else on Earth, from coastal mangroves to the Everglades to North America’s only coral reef,” says Corwin, 55. “It is our ultimate natural treasure.”

For the past few years, he has been spending a lot of time in Martin County, and now the TV personality is getting ready to become an even more permanent fixture in Florida. He and his wife, Natasha, are hoping to move here full-time in the not-too-distant future—and, he reveals, he is currently in pre-production on a new television series (tentatively titled Journeys to the Southern Wild) that will focus on the flora and fauna of Florida. “Historically, for a

show like mine, Florida is low-hanging fruit,” says Corwin of the series, which he notes will air on a major network.

Corwin grew up in the Boston area, the son of a police officer and a nurse. The family lived in a triple-decker home in a city where there wasn’t much nature to be appreciated. He recalls the local beach was polluted at the time, and the only time he could revel in the outdoors was when he visited his grandparents in the more rural town of Middleborough, Massachusetts, where he would go for long walks in the woods. “I’d see snakes and all these wonderful critters, and that was my gateway to nature,” he says.

The family moved to the suburbs when Corwin was 8, and that’s when he says his passion for exploring the natural world grew stronger. He got involved with his local science center

42

and started working in wildlife rehabilitation when he was in high school. It was then that he decided whatever career path he eventually chose would no doubt involve working with nature and animals. “I wanted to inspire people to have a better connection and experience with nature,” he says.

By the time he earned his master’s degree in wildlife and fisheries conservation from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, Corwin was already active in conservation. In 1993, when he was just 23, he addressed the United Nations General Assembly about protecting the rainforests in Central and South America.

“I first went to a tropical rainforest when I was 16 years old,” he recalls. “By the time I was 18, I was going regularly, and by my early twenties, I was working as a guide in Belize.

And that’s all it took to ignite his future in television. Corwin’s engaging persona and encyclopedic knowledge of and passion for the natural world made him a mainstay on television, hosting a slew of nature shows and giving commentary about natural disasters like tsunamis on cable news.

The very first episode of Corwin’s first lead television series, Going Wild with Jeff Corwin, was filmed just south of Miami at Turkey Point Nuclear Generating Station, covering its crocodile recovery program in 1997. Since then, he hasn’t stopped coming back to Florida. His various shows have seen him protecting manatees in the waterways of Central Florida, saving sea turtles on South Florida’s beaches, and electrofishing for snook in the Everglades.

When he and his family began visiting a dear friend who moved to Martin County four years ago, they fell in love with the area. “It’s one of the last places in Florida where you can wander off the beaten path and feel like you’re in Old Florida,” says Corwin, adding that he’s an 8-mile-a-day hiker who revels in the “critters” he finds while ambling around places like Stuart’s Seabranch Preserve State Park. “I would love for a sign to be put up in Seabranch that tells cyclists to watch where they’re going because there’s such an amazing inventory of animals you can find there, like glass lizards and anoles.”

And yet, he says, the state’s natural wonders are still threatened by unbridled development. With 1,000 people moving to Florida every day—including Corwin, with his imminent move—he realizes that a time will come when he potentially becomes a part of that problem. If development continues unabated, Corwin with a barred owl at Hobe Sound he speculates that one-third to one-half Nature Center of wild Florida could eventually be

NATURE FIXES

A few of Corwin’s favorite local spots and activities Go for a walk: Seabranch Preserve State Park Have a picnic: “The beach on the other side of Peck Lake. When you get down there, you have the beach to yourself and there’s a beautiful wall of red mangrove behind you. This is what Florida would have looked like centuries ago.”

Favorite book: Nathaniel Philbrick’s In the Heart of the Sea: The Tragedy of the Whaleship Essex. “It has powerful lessons about nature, and I read it once or twice a year.”

Native animals he loves most: “This is a hard one, but I’d say the armadillo, the Eastern indigo snake, and the gopher tortoise.”

Conservationists he admires: Rachel Carson and E.O. Wilson

gone. There is, however, an opportunity for redemption among those who are willing to step up and protect what remains.

“It’s far more economically achievable to protect what’s there instead of restoring what’s lost,” he says.

The key, he believes, is to get people to appreciate what we have here. “You cannot protect what you do not love, and you will never love it if you don’t get to meet it,” he says. “I want to introduce people to nature so they will fall in love with it.

Florida is a poster child for this challenge.”

To that end, Corwin recently spoke with a national group of science and biology teachers who expressed concern about the challenges of exposing students in urban areas to nature. Corwin suggested that family trips to the Sunshine State were an affordable way to accomplish that. “Any part of Florida is accessible when it comes to having access to these monumental and fundamental building blocks in the natural world,” he says. “For a reasonable price, a kid and their family could come here and see all of this and paddle in a kayak surrounded by nature.”

For the time being, Corwin has been working with local groups to tackle heavy obstacles to protect Florida’s natural wonders, such as manatees and mangroves. In April, he joined the board of the Hobe Sound Nature Center at Nathaniel P. Reed National Wildlife Refuge, and he is an avid supporter of the Florida Oceanographic Society surrounding the work they do promoting and preserving this part of the state. He also serves as an advisor to the Loxa-Lucie Headwaters Initiative and Guardians of Martin County, whose mission is to protect a 70,000-acre ecological corridor that connects the sources of the Loxahatchee and St. Lucie Rivers and forms a preserve for native plants and wildlife.

“Sometimes I think we take Florida for granted and assume it’s always going to be there,” says Corwin. “Despite all the challenges the state faces, it’s home to incredible gems like the manatees and the ospreys.”

Corwin and his wife are planning a move here when the timing is right— specifically, they have their eyes on Hobe Sound, where Corwin appreciates that they can be surrounded by the natural gems that light up his eyes when he talks.

Their daughters are growing up—the elder is a sophomore in college, while the younger is high school bound next year—and with Corwin’s new Florida-based nature show in the works, that time might just be very soon.

“We want to figure out how to make Martin County our next chapter,” he says.

“Part of that will involve us working with the great ambassadors for the state to do what we can to keep it special.”

JOHNNY

TONY

year ago, fans of the Bachelor TV franchise watched Johnny DePhillipo fall in love and get engaged on Bachelor in Paradise (BIP) after bowing out of contention on The Bachelorette just a few months prior. It’s no surprise the ladies loved him—he’s laid-back, quietly confident, a little shy, and a whole lot of handsome. But by the time the BIP reunion aired in the fall, the engagement was over. As he struggled through a very public breakup, DePhillipo, now 26, managed to handle himself with poise, grace, and an impressive dose of emotional maturity, reflecting on the heartbreak as a learning experience.

“It was pretty awful, it was draining,” he says of taping the BIP reunion show in November and dealing with everything that comes with your love life being aired on national television. “But honestly, I learned a lot from that relationship, and I feel like I’m all around a better person because of it. It taught me that you just need to walk away when there are red flags, or when you have a gut feeling about something. You have to have self-respect. I know what I want in a woman now, what I’ll tolerate and won’t tolerate. If you don’t want to be in my life, then go.”

Born in Scottsdale, Arizona, DePhillipo moved to southern New Jersey when he was 5, where he and his family lived in the coastal town of Margate City for the next decade. It was there that he developed his love of surfing, hitting the waves at a very young age. His parents—Elizabeth, a nurse, and John, a real estate agent—both surf, so it was a natural hobby for DePhillipo and his three brothers. “When I say it’s a beach town, I mean everybody surfs,” he says of Margate City. “We used to hang out at the surf shops and things like that.”

When he was 14 or 15, his family planted roots in Palm Beach

Gardens, where he admits he went through a few rebellious teenage years. “I was a terrible kid, a problem child,” he says. “I rebelled and was kicked out of a lot of schools.” The private schools his parents first enrolled him in just weren’t for him, and he ended up graduating from Dwyer while spending his free time surfing and playing team sports including hockey, lacrosse, and football.

He went to community college for two years and eventually earned an associate’s degree from Palm Beach State College.

He’d been working in the restaurant industry on and off since high school—bar-backing at Cucina and bartending and serving at local spots like The Woods, Hog Snappers, and Le Bar—and after college, he got both his insurance and real estate licenses, working in the fields with his brother in Scottsdale and his dad here in Florida.

Eventually, though, he decided he wanted to be a paramedic, so he enrolled in school and was doing rounds at fire stations and hospitals in the area. But four months in, ABC came calling….

“I was at school and I got an email from someone at ABC, and I was like, what is this?” he recalls. “I thought it was a joke, like my friends were pranking me.” Apparently, his friend Perry had secretly submitted him to be a contestant on The Bachelorette to help him get over a breakup. “I had been seeing someone for four to six months or so, and we had broken up and I was kind of bummed out about it,” says DePhillipo. “My friends were over it and were like, this dude needs to perk up. So that’s how it happened.”

He decided to put paramedic school on hold and give it a shot, and in March 2022 he flew to Los Angeles to tape The Bachelorette, followed that summer by Bachelor in Paradise.

Taking off so suddenly meant leaving his new buddy, Tony, behind

keeps me busy too, putting shelves in his shower and little projects like that, and there’s always a lot of eating whenever I’m there.”

In May, he was off to Jersey to visit with his grandparents for a while. There was also the possibility he’d be heading back to the beach in Mexico to tape another season of BIP (which typically premieres in late August or early fall). At least, at press time, he said he wouldn’t rule it out: “There’s a chance you’ll see me down there.”

In the real world, he prefers to meet potential dates naturally. “I just like to meet people out, at restaurants, events, wherever,” he says. “It’s the best way.” When he does meet someone who sparks his interest, he plays it a little cool and tries to get a vibe before making a move.

“I feel like I’m shy, so I don’t pursue very hard or aggressively,” he says with a laugh. “I just say, ‘Hi, I’m Johnny,’ and if I feel a connection and am sensing she’s into me too, then I shoot my shot and ask for her number. I’m not that intense.”

He says he’d prefer to be more established with his career before considering engagement again, but if true love comes a-knockin’, he’ll open the door. “When I do find someone I want to be engaged to, I’ll know,” he says. “If I meet someone down-to-earth who’s ready to rock with me, is a down-to-ride girl… If I found the right one and was head over heels, I would do it for sure.”

But his main priority right now is getting his professional life on track. Come end of summer, he expects to be back in paramedic school in South Florida. “My mindset now is to get a career going, that’s my focus,” he says. “I don’t want to get lost in the sauce, as they say, and in 10 years be like, what was I doing? I want to finish school and build a career here.” —Michelle Lee Ribeiro

for a bit. DePhillipo had just gotten the French bulldog about a month before he had to leave for the show. Luckily, he comes from a family of dog lovers, and Tony was able to stay with his parents (and the family’s two boxers and Australian shepherd) in Palm Beach Gardens while he went off to pursue love.

Tony is actually DePhillipo’s second Frenchie. He first had Kilo, but sadly lost him within a year. “The vet said he must have somehow drank contaminated water outside [dogs can be exposed to harmful substances in things like environmental pesticides, contaminated groundwater or rivers, and animal urine in puddles], and he ended up passing away from leptospirosis,” he says.

But now there’s Tony—who, fittingly, being part of the Italian DePhillipo family—was named after pasta. “We were eating pasta, Follow Johnny on Instagram: @johnnydephillipo and my dad just started calling him Rigatoni, so it was Tony,” says DePhillipo. Tony loves going to the beach and swimming in the ocean (pretty much the perfect little buddy for a guy who loves to surf), and to DePhillipo, he’s just the right mix of energy and chill. “They’re small dogs but have the biggest personalities,” he says Endearing trait: “He snores—not very loud and, like, lying full out on his of the breed. “They’re up by 8 a.m. and energetic, they back.

It was his Italian grandparents who he says taught him his way around the kitchen. “I used to help them cook when I was super young, making pasta from scratch,” he says. His favorite dish to make is homemade gnocchi.

He’s incredibly close with his family, and he loves spending time with his grandparents in New Jersey whenever he can. “My grandfather loves to stay busy, he’s always building something,” DePhillipo says. “He

It’s the craziest thing ever. The two boxers play kind of aggressively, and one is 140 pounds, but Tony isn’t afraid of him at all. None of the dogs will start their day until Tony does. He’s the man.”

TIGGER

rowing up in Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains region, Phil Williams says sports and family were the focus of his childhood. The youngest of 11 children, he says his upbringing taught him several things about himself: He wanted a big family, a career in physical fitness, and a dog.

“We were all into playing sports,” Williams, now 47, says of himself and his siblings. “I ran track, played football, and started martial arts when I was 3. The fitness background comes from me following behind my older siblings.” At 18, he became a personal trainer, and today he owns a popular online and in-person workout business called PhilFit, which focuses on toning and training people of all skill levels.

Williams creates unique workout videos for his worldwide online subscriber base, leads group workouts at Real Fitness in Jupiter,

and meets elite clientele for home sessions, including celebrity clients like The Bachelorette reality show alum and Jupiter native Tyler Cameron. When Cameron was 13, his mother hired Williams to provide her sons with athletics training and mentorship—and Williams and Cameron have been good pals ever since. “We don’t even call each other friends—he’s my little brother,” Williams says.

As for Tigger, Williams met his four-legged friend when he married Tigger’s human, Amber Rose, in 2017. Rose had adopted the boxer mix in Homestead in 2013 after hearing his story of being hit by a car on the local news. During Tigger’s recovery, he received two hip replacements and underwent aquatic rehab.

When Williams entered the family picture, he and Tigger quickly became best buds. “He follows me around a lot more than he follows my wife now,” says Williams, who lives in Jupiter with Rose, Tigger, and their son, Antonio (Williams is also the father of four adult daughters from a previous relationship). “I think he’s a guy’s guy.”

RADAR

life filled with adventure has been a goal for Joel Anders ever since he was a young boy fishing, camping, and snowboarding in southern Oregon. When he was in college, he lived in Australia for a spell, and upon graduating he decided that an industry that would allow him to continue to travel was a must. As it happened, he met a girl who was a chef on private yachts, and the seed was planted: He would work on boats.

He got his sea legs on a sailing school vessel in Baja, Mexico, learning the ropes as a low-paid volunteer. He used that tall ship experience as a springboard to land his first job on a private yacht in Southern California in 2009, and he’s been sailing the seas ever since. He went from working as a deckhand on 150-footers to first officer on 100-plus-footers to captain on smaller vessels, traveling to places like Maine, the Pacific Northwest, the Bahamas, and Florida.

When he got a mate’s job on a yacht based in Palm Beach about a decade ago, he decided to stay.

Today, the 38-year-old is first mate on a 120 Trinity ABS-class yacht, and he also captains smaller boats and water taxis to Peanut

Island as a side gig. With a steady career based in the area, he decided to plant roots and buy a home near Lake Park in 2020. He also realized it was time to do something else he’d been wanting to do for a long time: get a dog.

“I was never really able to have a dog because I was always traveling around, and finally I could,” he says. “I wanted an adventure dog.”

He heard about a dog that had been living on the streets in Arkansas, where the neighborhood was taking care of him. A rescue in Rhode Island eventually took him in, and Anders happened to be working on a boat in New England that summer, so he went to meet the dog. “As soon as I met him I was like, ‘This is going to be my dog,’” he recalls.

The German shepherd–border collie mix was super friendly, full of energy, and had “big, goofy ears.” He had already been named Radar, which seemed to suit him. “His name is really appropriate,” says Anders. “His ears are always up—he’s always alert and has a track on me. Plus, you know, working in an industry that uses radar...”

The new pals quickly bonded over a love of exploring, and Anders takes Radar everywhere—to alfresco dinners in the area, on hiking trips in places like Moab, Utah, and on day trips with friends on his boat. Now 3, Radar wasn’t a natural old salt like his human dad though. “He used to be scared of water, but now we get halfway to Peanut Island on Best talent: “He’s really good at catching stuff in the air. Honestly, he’s the boat and he’s gone,” Anders says of Radar’s new better than a lot of shortstops! He’s also extremely fast—like 30 mph obsession with swimming. “He has definitely acclimated top speed.” to being a Florida water dog.”

This summer, Anders is planning to buy a camper Favorite spot at home: “The couch by the big window in the living room. and “do the van life thing” for a bit, just him and Radar He likes to keep an eye on the neighborhood.” living their best lives. And there is no one else he’d Favorite treat: Starbucks Puppuccino rather have as a copilot. “He’s a generational dog,” he says of his buddy. “They say you’re lucky to have one Cute quirk: “He’s quite the leaner.

Dream doggie trip: “I’d love to take him to Patagonia. He would be completely free and just be able to wander all over.”

take advantage of the snowbird-less summer and head to Palm Beach for Sunday Brunch at The Circle (thebreakers.com/ dining/sunday-brunch). The famous brunch normally requires reservations weeks in advance because, frankly, no one does brunch better. Resort wear is a must (no tees or torn denim) as you enjoy bottomless drinks and a menu with an infinite list of delectable eats including a raw bar and caviar station, baby lamb chops, carved beef tenderloin, imported cheeses and pâtés, and all the traditional brunch plates, plus more than 30 desserts at this incredible feast ($195/adult; $85/kids ages 12 and under).

Closer to home, Lynora’s (lynoras.com) hosts brunch every Saturday and Sunday with bottomless Bellinis, mimosas, and Peronis alongside a full menu. 1000 North (1000north.com) is the perfect place to enjoy steak and eggs tartine or Nashville hot chicken and waffles with their take on an Aperol Spritz or French 75 on Sundays. And Crosby Kitchen and Bar hosts brunch every Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. with bottomless mimosas and bloody Marys (crosbykitchenandbar.com).

Juno Beach Pier

Bask in the splendor of nature.

It’s easy to get caught up in work and social events during season and forget that some of the best times can be had just by going outside. Summer is the perfect time to stop and smell the proverbial roses and enjoy our beautiful beaches, crystal-clear waters, watersports, hiking and biking, and more.

Take a trip to Jupiter Island to see waves crashing onto the limestone shoreline during high tide at the Nature Conservancy’s Blowing Rocks Preserve (nature.org), or pay two dollars to walk to the end of the Juno Beach Pier, where you may see manta rays, sea turtles, and sharks swimming below (discover.pbcgov.org).

If you’ve yet to visit Loggerhead Marinelife Center’s newly expanded campus in Juno Beach, register for a guided turtle walk on select evenings in July for your chance to observe one of the thousands of loggerhead, green, and leatherback sea turtles that nest on our beaches each year. Don’t forget to set aside some time to visit the center’s turtle tanks for a peek at this season’s hatchlings and hospital patients (marinelife.org).

Spend a day biking the nearly 10 miles of compact shell rock trails at Riverbend Park, where you’re likely to have some exciting wildlife encounters along the way. If you don’t have your own mountain bike, rentals are available at jupiteroutdoorcenter.com/ riverbend-park. At Jonathan Dickinson State Park in Hobe Sound,

60

the Camp Murphy mountain bike trails are much quieter during the summer months (and the seasonal rain helps keep them compact). A mountain bike rental here is $35 for two hours (jdstatepark.com/rentals).

For a self-guided coast around Jupiter’s waterways, rent a paddleboard from Blueline Surf & Paddle (bluelinesurf.com) and walk across the street to Guanabanas to launch. At John D. MacArthur Beach State Park, visitors can rent a kayak at the gift shop to paddle around the estuary or travel into the Lake Worth Lagoon to Munyon Island. Afterward, head across the boardwalk to the state park’s pristine beach and meandering nature trail (macarthurbeach.org).

Get Up and Go Kayaking brings a new kind of ecotourism to Jupiter with its guided clear-bottom kayaking tours along the Intracoastal, where you can see sea stars, manatees, and other marine life up close and personal (getupandgokayaking.com).

Whatever outdoor activity you decide to take part in, consider winding down your day with a Jupiter Island Sunset Cruise.

Manatee Queen has been operating local catamaran cruises and private charters since 1988, and the two-hour sunset cruise includes snacks, beer, wine, and soft drinks ($65 adults; $40 kids 12 and under; manateequeen.com).

Get your culture fix.

South Florida is teeming with museums and galleries, and one of the hottest spots for art lovers is the Norton Museum of Art in West Palm Beach (norton.org). On Fridays from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m., the museum hosts Art After Dark, a mix of art and musical entertainment, and area residents get free admission to the museum on Saturdays through Labor Day. Be sure to stop by July 15 from noon to 5 p.m. for Games Around the World Family Day, filled with performances, hands-on projects, storytelling, creative pastimes, and tours celebrating traditions from around the globe.

Earlier this summer, Lighthouse Art Center & Gallery in Tequesta (lighthousearts.org) debuted its Locals Only: A Florida State of Mind exhibition featuring works by local artists. Catch the show through August 5.

A wonderful way to embrace the arts while also enjoying the great outdoors is the annual Shakespeare Festival in Carlin Park.

This year’s Shakespeare by the Sea production, Measure for Measure, takes place July 6-9 and July 13-16 at the Seabreeze Amphitheater, and admission is free (pbshakespeare.org).

At the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens in Delray Beach (morikami.org), register for a two-part Sado Tea workshop July 9 and 23 or July 13 and 27 and learn the art of the traditional Japanese tea ceremony.

If it’s music you’re after, iThink Financial Amphitheatre at the South Florida Fairgrounds hosts national tours all summer, including the two-night Dave Matthews Band concert on July 28 and 29 (westpalmbeachamphitheatre.com). In Jupiter, the Abacoa Amphitheater is always a good place to groove to some of your favorite cover bands, including a Beatles tribute July 15 and a Journey tribute August 19 (abacoa.com/events).

Summer is a good time to take in all the fun of a tiki bar without the crowds, and there’s no better way to show up in style than by pulling right up to a boat slip. Situated along the Intracoastal since 2003, Square Grouper (squaregrouper.net) is Jupiter’s OG tiki bar. With an excellent view of the lighthouse,19 boat slips at Castaways Marina (free docking after 6 p.m.), first-come, first-serve seating in the sand, and live music seven days a week, it’s the ultimate locals’ hangout.

Of course, there’s also Guanabanas (guanabanas.com), with 13 slips, tons of outdoor seating, and live music several nights a week. And at Tiki 52 (tiki52tequesta.com), don’t miss resident country crooner Ricky Young every Thursday and Saturday night (you can dock your vessel at Blowing Rocks Marina).

Scenes from the new Double Roads

SECOND

Act

STAYING TRUE TO ITS MUSIC-LOVERS ROOTS, THE REIMAGINED DOUBLE ROADS IN JUPITER OFFERS LIVE PERFORMANCES, MEMORABILIA, EXPANDED MENUS, AND MORE IN ITS NEW, MUCH LARGER LOCATION

DAMON HIGGINS PHOTOGRAPHY

A

mere 50 feet from its previous location, Double Roads in Jupiter finally opened its doors to customers old and new in late January after going dark for almost two years. Owner Vince Flora shut down the long-standing local music lovers’ haunt in 2021 due to a combination of issues, from COVID to noise ordinances to a lack of sufficient parking.

And the bar’s regulars weren’t happy. “There was so much outcry in town over our closing, so when someone approached us about a year after we closed about reopening, we decided we would do it again,” says Flora.

Flora landed not far from the original location, snatching up the old Outback Steakhouse site when the restaurant shut down. And with a lot more space than its previous location— 7,000 square feet to be exact—plus great acoustics and plenty

of parking, Flora was able to expand on the live music restaurant concept and make Double Roads both bigger and better than before.

Double Roads has a bit of everything: daily live music, a full-service restaurant, a record store with a vinyl inventory of more than 10,000, a music and memorabilia store, a pizzeria, and a membership-based speakeasy. “We took everything out, pulled the nails out, and recycled wood as much as possible,” Flora says of transforming the space. “I was the JU LY/AUGUST 2 0 2 3

lead carpenter and designer. This is basically a culmination of all the things I always wanted to do but didn’t have the room for previously.”

Music is still the main beat at Double Roads, seven nights a week. Monday nights feature a Chicago blues jam session, and Tuesdays are devoted to sets by various local musicians. Wednesdays bring in country music and line dancing, and Thursdays are all about rock and blues. Dance music dominates weekends, with a 5:30 p.m. early show and a 9 p.m. (much louder) show. The restaurant also offers Sunday brunch, which of course comes with live music. And when the sun goes down on Sundays, a jazz jam takes over the scene, with local musicians encouraged to join in.

For those who know, it’s no surprise that music is such a strong focus of the new Double Roads—after all, that’s what Flora, a musician himself, built the original business on. Flora’s own blues, rock, and R&B band, Big Vince and the Phat Cats, performs the fourth Saturday of every month. Originally from New Jersey, Flora—who plays harmonica and guitar—toured with major artists for many years and moved to South Florida back in the mid-1990s. When he arrived in the area, he heard about a Jupiter beach spot called Double Roads where teenagers surfed and partied around bonfires—and something about it struck him.

“I just love the history,” he says. “The name is iconic, so I incorporated it into the business plan I had for this restaurant venue that

Clockwise from top left: The elevated menu includes Sunday brunch items like the yummy Texas Toast Stack; interior decor; the in-house vinyl store has an inventory of more than 10,000 records; catch live music at Double Roads seven nights a week.

I’d been dreaming about my whole life.”

When he started planning the new incarnation, he decided to play up the food more, focusing on barbecue. “Our food is South Florida–style barbecue, which means we are influenced by everyone,” he says. Other popular menu items are the Cuban egg rolls, hush puppies, and gumbo. (And, yes, the flame-broiled burgers are still on the menu.)

While Flora operates the food operations and band bookings, his wife, Kelly, runs the back of the house and the beverage program. Double Roads has liquor partnerships with some highprofile folks: Tequila brand Santo Fino Blanco, owned by rocker Sammy Hagar and Chef Guy Fieri, sponsors the main stage. And Bob Dylan’s whiskey brand, Heaven’s Door, sponsors the attached speakeasy, a by-invitation-only private room with a killer craft cocktail program.

If all that wasn’t enough, Double Roads just added an on-site pizzeria to the mix. “It’s a full vibe,” Flora says of Double Roads.

“My philosophy is to give people a reason to stay. You can sit in a chair and enjoy the band, but there are also all these other things you can do while you’re here. Check out the record or the music store, browse the memorabilia, grab a slice of pizza or some barbecue, a beer, or a cocktail. This is a musical hall for people who love music.”

To reserve a spot for nightly music, purchase tickets in advance at doubleroadsfl.com; walk-ins are welcome on a first-come, first-serve basis. ❖

The Lentine family is no stranger to the Stuart area, having owned vacation homes locally since the 1950s. When Lou Lentine Sr. and his family relocated here permanently in 1989, he and his former wife launched the Taco Shack with love and passion for great crafted tacos. The legacy continued when Lou Lentine Jr. moved here from Tennessee with his family in 2020, purchasing the business from his father.

“We had a successful formula,” Lou Jr. says. “We knew by adding better processes and investing capital to triple the size, we could create something special.”

Kids Eat Free Wednesdays with Purchase of Entrée

Over the course of the last year, Taco Shack has expanded its Stuart location, added a full bar as well as opened a second location in Abacoa in Jupiter, Florida. Both locations focus on fresh (never frozen) ingredients, innovative recipes and an amazing team of employees who strive to serve the local community. “We are a family-run business that wants to provide something special to the local community,” Lou Jr. says. “We believe that a restaurant is as good as its employees, and we work hard to take care of ours—many of whom have worked for us for 10 years.”

Taco Shack offers great gourmet tacos,

the best margaritas, amazing service, an unbelievable value, and a great time. “We strive to provide fast, fresh food without breaking the bank,” Lou Jr. says.

The restaurant’s goal is to provide great-tasting food from a unique menu with creativity and passion. “People come back because we always have something new for them to try,” Lou Jr. says.

“Our wahoo and octopus tacos are receiving an incredible reaction from our guests, not to mention our new margarita menu. We are addicted to our tacos and love that so many others are as well.”

Florida Atlantic University Addressing Florida’s Harmful Algal Blooms Florida Atlantic researchers are working to protect Florida’s coastlines, oceans, and marine life from harmful algal blooms. Fueled by natural and human disruptions, blooms kill seagrass, marine and wildlife, create human health concerns, and lead to economic strain due to the costly cleanup of waterways, business closures, and decreased tourism.

FAU’s research is at the forefront of assessing the health effects of toxins from blooms, restoring seagrass to nourish marine life, building warning and forecasting systems for blooms, and examining water cleaning methods.

Your investment in FAU’s environmental programs today help to ensure a better tomorrow for future generations.
