Whiskey Creek Civic Association – Community Update
COLE PEACOCK, PRESIDENT, WCCA
Fall weather is on the way, but hurricane season isn’t over just yet. Please stay prepared—and remember the Hurricane Sales Tax Holiday has been replaced with a permanent sales tax exemption on items ranging from impact windows to generators to batteries.
As the school year is now in full swing, let’s take a moment to be vigilant and watch out for our kids who are walking, biking, or waiting at bus stops. If you see cars speeding or driving aggressively in the neighborhood during school drop-off or pickup times, please report them to the sheriff’s office or the school district.
The Civic Association Board meetings have resumed and will be held monthly until next May. We may have to adjust the times and location for a couple of months until the clubhouse is reopened. This could limit resident participation for one or two meetings. Please visit the website https://whiskeycreeknews. net/ or the Whiskey Creek Civic Association Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/ whiskeycreek.FL. We welcome your ideas and involvement as we plan for a great year ahead.
The WCCA is honored to welcome our new Board members, Bruce Schultz and Dana Hume. If you see them in the neighborhood, please thank them for their volunteer service and commitment to our community.
We’re excited for another fun season in Whiskey Creek! Fall Fest is just around the
corner on October 25 at 4 p.m., featuring games, live music, and plenty of fall fun. We can’t wait to see everyone there!
Next up is the Annual Christmas Golf Cart Parade! Now’s the time to start designing and decorating your cart—the competition gets more creative and festive every year.
Events like these are what make Whiskey Creek so special. They highlight the spirit of fun, friendship, and community pride that make our neighborhood such a cherished place to call home. You can see it in the way we come together, not only to celebrate, but also to make a difference for the community at large.
We’re also working with the county and local partners to spruce up our medians so they’re safer, greener, and more welcoming. This has been mentioned several times, as it is not only a significant financial project but also a lengthy project. We hope to accomplish this much-needed and requested community enhancement, but it is only possible with strong community support, so if you haven’t yet renewed your Civic Association dues, now’s the perfect time—every membership helps! You can renew online at https://whiskeycreeknews.net/ membership/.
Thanks for being the heart of Whiskey Creek. Together, we make this such a special place to call home. Stop by Fall Fest and say hi—we’d love to catch up with neighbors!
Real Estate Round-Up
BOB OXNARD, REALTOR ®
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST ASSET?
This isn’ t a trick question. If you say it is your spouse, or perhaps your cheerful disposition, we won’ t argue with you. But we are referring to your biggest financial asset. For many of us, our home is one of our largest financial assets. This is especially true as we become older. But even for younger people who have a mortgage, the equity in their home can be a significant part of their financial portfolio.
As a Realtor, I sometimes see customers who are downsizing or are selling their home for the last time. The resources their home provides for them can make the difference between living the rest of their lives comfortably or trying to decide how to make ends meet as life goes on.
When we think of wealthy people, we often picture those with diversified portfolios and financial investments including stocks, bonds, and retirement funds. But we sometimes overlook the appreciation potential of real estate, including our home. One of the best things about investing in your home is that we need a place to live anyway. We can combine a necessity with a sound financial investment.
Homebuyers can have a variety of criteria to consider including distance to work, recreation potential, access to worship, healthcare, and entertainment. Resale potential should always be an important financial consideration as well. The most important consideration for buying real estate should always be location, location, location.
A second rule to consider for appreciation is to buy the least expensive home in the best neighborhood you can afford. Since this article appears in the real estate section of The Whiskey Creek News, you may already own one of the 1,600 homes in Whiskey Creek. If so, you can rest assured that you have addressed the location rule well. Time, experience, and historical data show that Whiskey Creek homes hold their value and appreciate better than average.
Some savvy homeowners know that the U.S. tax system provides tax incentives to U.S. citizens who want to own their own home. One of the biggest is tax deductible interest on home mortgages. Others include the homestead exemption on real estate taxes and the Save Our Home limit on real estate tax increases. Another benefit with significant potential
is income tax avoidance on appreciated value when a homeowner sells a property that was a primary residence and meets certain criteria. This is not available for most flippers and investors. Please consult your accountant or attorney for details. The bottom line is that our country sees the value of its citizens owning homes and provides economic incentives to foster this truly American dream.
High mortgage rates have been a deterrent to home buyers for several years. A longawaited move by the Fed to lower interest rates appears to be finally happening. Home ownership and the housing market in general are expected to be two beneficiaries of lower interest rates.
If you have any questions or comments about this article or other real estate issues, please contact Bob Oxnard at whiskeycreeknews@ yahoo.com.
Aerial Operations: Lee County Mosquito Control District
Lee County Mosquito Control District’s aerial operations play a vital role in protecting public health and mosquito nuisance by reducing mosquito populations across large areas. During the day, helicopters conduct surveillance flights to identify mosquito activity in both larval and adult stages. When larvae are present, helicopters perform larviciding (about 75% of all operations) targeting

SUDOKU
mosquito larvae in water before they mature into biting adults. Missions are mapped with GPS and flown in grids with approximately 70-foot swaths at low altitudes to ensure precision. Pilots make sharp agricultural turns to transition between grids, much like lifting and turning a lawn mower at the end of a row. At sunset, when mosquitoes are most active, aerial adulticiding occurs. Helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft, including DC3s and King Airs, fly at low altitude to apply treatments directly into the air column where mosquitoes are active. This combination of daytime larviciding and nighttime adulticiding, along with ground support from trucks, backpacks, and drones, ensures comprehensive mosquito control across Lee County.
Wildlife
MARK L. FRANZER
NANDAY PARAKEET
The Nanday parakeet is a noisy, invasive species that’s hard to miss. Their loud, ratchety squawks often draw attention to flocks of bright green birds marked with distinct black heads—hence their nickname, the “black-hooded parakeet.” Once native to Central and South America, Nanday parakeets became established in Florida after escaping or being released from the pet trade. Today, large feral populations thrive across South Florida, where they pose challenges to farmers by damaging crops and competing with native wildlife for resources.
Similar in size to a crow or robin, the Nanday parakeet is mostly vivid green with a black head and beak. Subtle blue highlights can appear on the chest, wings, and tail, and a small red patch sits at the base of each leg—though these markings aren’t always obvious. These herbivores feed on seeds, fruits, palm nuts, berries, flowers, and buds. In the wild or captivity, their lifespan typically ranges from 15 to 25 years.

The Heart Of Whiskey Creek:
MELISSA METZGER
Sometimes it takes just one moment to remind us why Whiskey Creek is more than just a neighborhood. Last month, a family who recently moved into the neighborhood faced a heartbreaking situation. Their young son had left his motorized toy Jeep by the roadside while helping his dad with garage cleanup. In an unfortunate mix-up, someone mistook it for trash and took it away. The loss was crushing for the little boy, who had only recently received the Jeep and adored every ride.
Seabreeze Communications, Inc. does not endorse any advertising as it relates to the communities. Advertising is not screened by Seabreeze Communications, Inc.
His parents shared their story with the community on our Facebook group, hoping against hope that the Jeep would be returned. What they did not expect was the overwhelming response from neighbors. Without hesitation, families came together, chipped in, and surprised their son with a brand-new Jeep!
At first, he was in shock. Was this really for him? But once it sank in, his joy was
uncontainable. Mom said he would have slept in the Jeep if he could! Even more touching was the bond he formed with the neighbors who delivered it. They left such an impression that he later asked if losing something again meant those neighbors would come back to play. His parents gently assured him that playdates did not require any losses, just new friendships.
For this family, still kneedeep in home renovations and just beginning to venture out into Whiskey Creek, the outpouring of kindness was both humbling and heartwarming. “We felt
Creek: Neighbors Helping Neighbors
so blessed,” they shared. “We hadn’t even met many neighbors yet, but that didn’t matter. People cared about our son and our family. It was amazing.”
The experience not only brought joy to one little boy, but also opened the door to a deeper connection with the neighborhood. “We knew Whiskey Creek was a beautiful place when we chose to move here,” the family reflected. “But we had no idea such a large community could feel so close-knit. We can’t wait to get more involved in neighborhood groups and events and hopefully give back the same joy we have been given.”
To all the neighbors who came together: this family’s message is simple but powerful. “THANK YOU!” Your kindness turned a heartbreak into a story of love and connection that perfectly captures the spirit of Whiskey Creek.
Do you know someone who deserves the spotlight?
Stories like this Jeep surprise remind us what makes Whiskey Creek so special: neighbors who care, connections that last, and the simple joy of looking out for one another. That is why each month we honor our Neighbor or Yard of the Month. The
beauty of Whiskey Creek is not just found in our gardens, it is found in the people, too.
If you know someone who goes the extra mile, a volunteer who lifts up others, or a yard that brings a smile every time you pass by, we want to hear about it!
Send your nominations to: wccayardofthemonth@ gmail.com. Let’s keep celebrating everything and everyone that makes Whiskey Creek feel like home.

Whiskey Creek Security Report
BOB BEVILLE
I neglected to report it in July but last month yours truly had a not-so-typical visitor run though my yard. A decentsized black bear decided to grab a snack from our trash can and then climb up into a neighbor ’s big oak tree! One of our cameras caught him scurrying through our side yard. He was trapped a day or so later and safely relocated.
Home security cameras play an important part in deterring and solving criminal activity. So, if you do have cameras and some activity is reported by one of our residents, please check to see if you can help with any video evidence.
Our normal security report is not as exciting as a bear but still a bit interesting.
On August 8 Deputy Flores observed a suspicious vehicle parked in the rear parking lot blacked out at 6200 Whiskey Creek Drive. He stepped out with both occupants in the vehicle and ran them on the LCSO database, resulting in both subjects being clear. DFC Flores ordered the subjects leave the community immediately. This action may have prevented a crime.
On August 9 Detective Deak issued four warnings, two regular citations, and two criminal citations. He was busy!
This month several of the deputies exited their car and patrolled on foot, especially around the country club.
I report each month that one of the deputies sits along Whiskey Creek Drive with the c ruiser ’s lights on. That is usually Deputy Raymond Tellez Ferriol. So, if you see a car with the lights flashing, stop and tell him hi by his name. That will surprise him.
On August 26 I noticed an LCSO car by the bridge, so I pulled up and introduced myself and thanked Deputy J. Zavacky for his service. I could tell it made his day.

WHITE BEAN AND HAM SOUP
Soup season is here! Cozy up to fall with this simple and delicious recipe.
One pot, mostly hands-off, simple ingredients, and you’re good to go. It’s also one of those hearty soups that gets better the longer you leave it: The flavors intensify, and it’s even tastier over time. Serve with a big slice of crusty buttered bread, cornbread, or cheesy garlic bread. Enjoy!
INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 medium onion, chopped finely
1 large carrot, peeled and chopped small
3 sticks celery, chopped small
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
4 cups chicken broth
2 cups water
2 cups cooked ham chopped (or more to taste)
2 (14-ounce) cans white beans drained
Salt and pepper to taste
Cook’s Corner
BORROWED FROM SALT & LAVENDER
INSTRUCTIONS
• Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large soup pot. Sauté the onions, carrot, and celery for 7 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally (a little browning is good).
• Stir in the garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.
• Add the Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, chicken broth, water, ham, and white beans to the pot. Increase the heat to high and bring it to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to medium (or mediumlow if it’s bubbling too much), cover the pot with the lid slightly ajar, and let the soup simmer for 20 to 25 minutes. (The flavor will intensify the longer you cook it so feel free to cook it for a bit longer.)
• Season with salt and pepper to taste. Ham can be quite salty, so be sure to add salt after it’s cooked if you think it needs it. Optional: Take a potato masher and mash some of the beans right in the pot to create a slightly thicker texture or pulse an immersion blender a few times.

OCTOBER ON THE WATER
October is a refreshing month around Southwest Florida. After a long hot summer, we get relief with cooler days, a noticeable drop in humidity, and fewer thunderstorms. This combination sets off good fishing opportunities as they are hungry, active, and on the move.
Fall is the time that schools of redfish devour anything in their path across our inshore waters. Often there may be several hundred or more working across the shallows on an eating mission. If you’re lucky enough to cross paths with a school, it’s a memory not soon forgotten. Fishing for schooling redfish peaks in October generally lasting until we get our first real cold front. Exactly when that is, only time will tell.
Snook are on the move transitioning from their summer homes around the Gulf beaches and nearby areas and move closer to their winter haunts inshore. Snook of any size are a fun challenge. Live bait puts odds in your favor, but with cooling water and fishing becoming more active, artificial baits can be a good choice. Snook season is open in October.
Good sea trout action is another benefit of cooler water; active and hungry, and at times feeding in schools under bait pods over the inshore grass flats. Trout can run in size from small guys under 12 inches to fish well over 20 inches. Both live bait and lures work equally well with trout this month. With a little effort, a fresh trout dinner is a good possibility.
Mangrove snapper fishing was good all summer inshore. Many will make their way offshore by month’s end. Look for artificial reefs and ledges or hard bottom in depths from 20 to 50 feet to hold concentrations of fish. Snapper should be holding in and around the Gulf passes, where days with slower tides often present the best opportunity. Live shrimp with light tackle is the best way to go, and if you are anchored, a chum block is a great idea. Always have a heavier rig in the rod holder with a live flatlined bait. You never know when a big
cobia, tarpon, king mackerel, or some other species might come into play.
Expect sheepsheads to begin making a presence later in the month. As they move in, there could be some big ones mixed in with the snapper around nearshore reefs and along the beaches or structure around the coast islands. Sheepsheads will not eat any type of fish. Live or dead, shrimp is the go-to bait for most anglers. As the water continues to cool, sheepsheads numbers will increase and peak into winter months.
October is one of the best months of the year to fish around Southwest Florida. There are plenty of days with great comfortable weather, hungry fish, plus the winter crowds have not yet returned.
Stay up to date with fishing regulations by visiting www.myfwc.com. Also, upload the Fish Rules app on your phone. It has current regulations with pictures to help identify fish.

FIVE WAYS TO HELP YOU CUT DOWN ON UNWANTED CALLS
If you feel like you get more than your share of unwanted calls, you’re not alone. To slow down these persistent calls—some of which lead straight to scams—take a few simple steps.
• Register your phone number for free in the National Do Not Call Registry. Registering will likely cut down how many unwanted calls you get. Unfortunately, it won’t stop calls from scammers to your home and mobile phone—and there are still organizations and groups allowed to call you.
• Hang up on robocalls. Getting a lot of recorded messages trying to sell you something? Odds are the calls are not legal. Don’t press any numbers or call back. Instead, hang up and report them at DoNotCall.gov.
• Use your phone’s built-in features. Many cell phones have settings that let you block calls from specific numbers or send certain calls straight to voicemail, especially if they come from a phone number you don’t recognize.
• Check call-blocking or call-labeling services. Find out what your phone company offers by contacting their customer service using a phone number or website you know is right. Watch a short video to help you block unwanted calls on your cell phone or home phone.
• Research apps to filter calls before downloading. Some call-blocking apps are free, while others charge. At ctia.org, you can see wireless industry lists of call-blocking apps. See what independent experts are saying and check the ratings and reviews on your online app store before you decide on a call-blocking app.

FIREARMS LEFT IN VEHICLES
It seems as if almost daily we watch news reports depicting gun violence across the nation. At the time of producing this security tip, the United States has lost 9,974 individuals to gun violence and has seen another 18,208 injured in 2025 alone.
This message is neither an assault on Second Amendment rights nor a comment addressing the motives for gun violence in the United States. This message is solely intended to address removing firearms from our vehicles when we exit for the evening.
Almost weekly, the Lee County Sheriff’s Office shares a “Lock It or Lose It” message on one or all of our social media platforms. We repeatedly ask that in addition to locking your cars and trucks when retiring for the evening, we remind vehicle owners to remove valuables … especially firearms.
A Johns Hopkins University study revealed that an estimated 380,000 guns are stolen each and every year … many from unlocked cars and trucks.
Community safety is and must be a concerted endeavor. Our decisions affect the well-being of our neighbors and friends. Let’s ensure that we conduct ourselves responsibly and remove firearms from our vehicles at night.
