Windermere FY ’16-’17 The Windermere Town council approved its 2016-17 preliminary budget during its first budget hearing Sept. 6.

T

he Windermere Town Council endorsed the 2016-17 preliminary budget at its first budget hearing Tuesday, Sept.

6. The total expenditures amount to about $4.7 million and total revenue is about $4.8 million. The proposed budget will see its final hearing Sept. 21.

Windermere Mayor Gary Bruhn is proud the town was able to keep most of its rates and fees this year at the same level as last year and pointed out its success in bringing up its reserves from a little under $400,000 in 2010-11 to the current $1.6 million. It will be adding another $100,000 to the reserves this year and plans to use the funds for possible emergencies and capital-improvement projects.

“Basically where we’re at this year is the exact same charges, costs and millage rate that we had last year,” Bruhn said. “So we’re still at the 3.25 millage rate. We held the line on our stormwater fee, which we did end up increasing last year because it hadn’t been increased in years, giving us the opportunity to do more projects.”

At 3.25, Windermere’s millage rate for the 2016-17 is currently the lowest in Orange County.

Bruhn said they are able to keep it low because of an increase in Windermere’s estimated property values, which, according to the Orange County Property Appraiser’s Office, rose from $588,101,145 in 2015 to $616,416,813 in 2016 — a 4.81% gross increase.

There also was no increase in the fees for solid-waste and recycling collection or fire assessment, despite a $50,000 increase in Windermere’s contract with the Ocoee Fire Department for this fiscal year.

Total expenditures this year amount to about $4.7 million, including the $100,000 set aside for contingency funds. The highest expense is designated to the Windermere Police Department, which, at $1,788,050, accounts for 37.91% of expenditures. The second highest expenditure is

dedicated to public works, which sits at $1,222,435.84 (25.92%).

With a total revenue for this fiscal year of $4,830,526.32, the difference between total expenditures and revenue is $114,087.48.

About 50% of the income for general revenue stems from property taxes, Bruhn said. The rest comes from franchise fees, utility taxes, shared revenue from state sales tax and other sources.

The highest projected revenue amount is $1,902,240, which is obtained from the ad valorem tax of 3.25. The second highest revenue amount is generated from the fire assessment fee, which brings in $498,637, and the third highest is acquired from the 1/2 percent sales tax, which fetches a total of $455,642.

3.25

MILLAGE RATE The 2016-17 milage rate is set at 3.25.

This is the same rate as last year and the town expects to generate $1,902,240 from it — $86,478 higher than last year.

Holy Family school turns 20 JENNIFER NESSLAR STAFF WRITER

In 1996, Tina Mello had recently moved to Florida from Boston.

She didn’t think she would stay long, but one place made her quickly feel at home: Holy Family Catholic School.

Up north, she was part of the Holy Family parish, so when she saw the Holy Family Catholic School was opening its doors for the first time that year, she knew it was where God was calling her to be.

During her interview with Principal Sister Dorothy Sayers — who is still principal at the school — she expressed her confidence in getting the job.

“I said to Sister Dorothy, ‘I already know you’re going to hire me,’ and she said, ‘You know what? You’re right,’” Mello said.

Twenty years later, Mello didn’t move back to Boston. She’s still teaching at Holy Family Catholic School, which she feels is becoming more of a family, and a place where children and their families can grow closer to God. On Sept. 1, Holy Family Catholic School celebrated its 20th anniversary. And in that time, it’s become the home of countless memories.

Mackenzie Snook was part of Holy Family’s first first-grade class in 1996 and attended school there until her eighth-grade graduation. During her time at the

Monsignor William Ennis and Principal Sister Dorothy Sayers founded Holy Family Catholic school, along with Father John Giel, Holy Family’s current pastor.

relieve projected severe overcrowding at both Dr. Phillips and Freedom high schools.

The potential school site is located on 50 acres east of Apopka-Vineland Road and south of Fenton Street, near the Dr. P. Phillips Community Park. Both DPHS and Freedom currently are overcrowded: DPHS’ permanent program capacity is 2,799 and is currently at 3,593 students enrolled; Freedom’s capacity is 2,606 and currently enrolls 3,438. Projected enrollment at the two schools by the time the relief school would open is 4,317 and 3,797, respectively.

The new school would have a permanent program capacity of 2,776, and OCPS already is planning to request portables as it foresees future need as Dr. Phillips grows. And because the property is only 50 acres — the standard for

school, she was active in the theater program. After high school at Bishop Moore and college at Wake Forest, she came back, this time as a teacher, instructing fifthgraders in religion and language arts, as well as teaching after school theater classes.

“I’ve grown up here and still growing up here in a lot of ways,” she said. “I’m awestruck daily on seeing kids sit in the same desk as I sat in, hopefully raising them in the faith in the way that I was.”

BEGINNINGS

In the early 90s, Lucretia Head went to Holy Family’s new Father William Ennis and asked if Holy Family could start a school. He was interested and asked to meet with others who were behind the school. When saw the people were willing to support the school, he agreed.

In the year before the school opened, Sister Dorothy Sayers came to Holy Family as the new principal. The school broke down in the same month that a new church building opened.

Over time, Head, now a teacher, saw her vision come to reality.

“I was hoping that we could have a school in which the children could be brought up in a school of a Catholic faith and Christian values, and that they would have a good academic education,” she said.

Head credits Sayers and Ennis for their vision and support of the

CONTACT US school. Ennis still is one of the school’s biggest fans.

“I’m delighted that it’s going so well,” Ennis said.

A PLACE FOR FAMILIES

Father John Giel is the new pastor of Holy Family Catholic Church, and he has embraced the school.

“I’ve only been here for a year, but I’m so happy to be here,” he said. “I’m so happy that our school is a part of this parish. It’s where families grow and people grow as families and grow towards their God.” The Murphy family has had a child attend Holy Family since 2001, when Jewell Murphy started in the early childhood center.

Jewell graduated from the school in 2008, but her younger brothers still attend.

“It gave me not only a good background with education but also a good faith background,” Jewell said. “I went on to Bishop Moore to continuing learning about my faith. That gave me a good foundation.”

Her mother, Tami Murphy, has worked as a teacher and socialmedia director at the school.

“We not only educate the children; we educate the parents as well,” Mello said. “They’ll come to us and they’ll say, ‘You know what, Mrs. Mello, I never knew that.’ The children bring the lessons home when it comes to religion. ... What a positive influence this school has been.”

Residents offer input for high school CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

WINDERMERE

high schools is 65 — OCPS has said that at least one of the school’s buildings could be as tall as six stories.

The first step in the process toward making the new school a reality is the rezoning process.

Currently, the majority of the property is labeled as a ruralcountry estate (R-CE) zone. A small portion of it is already a planned development (PD) zone.

OCPS is requesting the whole property be rezoned to PD to allow for development of the school.

What sets the process of gathering community input for this relief school apart from that of the current West Orange relief school is that OCPS does not yet own the land. Therefore, residents have the opportunity to voice their concerns before land is purchased.

“It’s refreshing to see that this land will be rezoned prior to OCPS actually owning the land,” said Ricardo Cumberbatch, a Winder-

mere resident. “It’s great because it gives everyone here input on that rezoning process.”

Orange County District 1 Commissioner S. Scott Boyd said one of the positives of this situation is the county’s ability to work closely with OCPS on mitigating some of the impacts the school would have on the surrounding neighborhood.

“It gave the County Commission a say in listening to you all as the process moves forward, and that’s what we’re here for,” Boyd said. “At the same time, OCPS does have the responsibility of looking for school sites. We have a good working relationship and the impacts of schools, obviously with traffic, are very important and a concern for everyone. We take it very seriously, OCPS takes it very seriously, and we do everything we can to make sure we manage that.”

Increased traffic was a top concern among residents in attendance. There are also plans for a

relief middle school in the same area as the proposed high school.

Sand Lake Elementary is nearby the two, as well. Residents were concerned about the future traffic generated by the three schools.

Access to the school would come in the form of a new road connecting Apopka-Vineland Road and Palm Parkway. Construction on this new road was slated to begin this year but has been pushed back to the first quarter of 2017.

Other concerns included the possibility of bike lanes for students’ safety, environmental preservation and plans for stormwater drainage, which would likely flow into Big and Little Sand lakes.

Boyd plans to host one more meeting before OCPS moves forward with its rezoning request.

The time and date for this meeting have not yet been set.

The retail giant will use the centers to fill 400 full- and part-time jobs it will have when it opens its two newest stores — a 190,000-square-foot Walmart Supercenter located in Horizon West and a 41,157-square-foot Walmart Neighborhood Market in Orlando — in November.

The new Walmart Supercenter in Horizon West will open in November.

Neighborhood Markets in Florida alone.

The majority of the new employees for the neighborhood market, which will be located at Orlando Lee Road, will begin work this month to help prepare the store for its grand opening, said Aaron Brothers, the Horizon West store manager. He added the majority of associates hired for the Horizon West Supercenter will begin work in October.

A hiring center opened at 14179 W. Colonial Drive for the Horizon West Supercenter and at 5125 Adanson St., Suite 600, for the Neighborhood Market, according to a Walmart press release.

Brothers encourages residents to consider applying for the stores because of the career growth potential.

“Walmart provides jobs for local residents with an oppor-

tunity to build a career,” Brothers said. “I can tell you firsthand the opportunities for growth are boundless. I’ve been with Walmart for 17 years now, starting as a cart pusher and eventually progressing to the store manager position five years ago.”

In 2015, Walmart promoted 18,800 of its Florida associates to jobs with higher pay and responsibility, and converted 9,900 from part-time to full-time positions. The company’s employee benefits, which include health care with no lifetime maximum, matching 401(k) contributions of up to 6% of pay, discounts on general merchandise, an Associate Stock Purchase Program and company-paid life insurance — are offered to both full-and parttime employees.

ORANGE COUNTY Orange County Public Schools board revised the IHAM Local School Wellness Policy to include an addendum authorizing daily recess during a meeting held Thursday, Sept. 8.

The IHAM policy, which originally made no mention of recess, was modified to adopt language making daily recess the norm, rather than the occasional exception. The full recess addendum states: “Each school shall provide at least 100 minutes of supervised, safe and unstructured free-play recess each week for students in kindergarten through grade five so that there are at least 20 consecutive minutes of free-play recess per day, except, in limited circumstances, when in the professional judgment of the teacher, it is not possible. Scheduling shall be at the discretion of the teacher.”

The policy was deliberately worded to preserve flexibility for OCPS teachers; however, the clause “in limited circumstances” was added during the meeting as an extra precaution to ensure teachers should only cancel recess during reasonable circumstances, such as weather or in the event of a field trip.

Assisted Living

•

The clause was suggested after comments were expressed from the public regarding the policy’s wording.

“Recess should be the rule, not the exception,” said Orange County resident Angela Browning during public comment. “We don’t want recess disappearing in the weeks leading up to the FSA because someone deems it not possible to take a break from cramming for the test. Because our children are children every day, even as they prepare for the FSA.” If approved in December, the 100 minutes of recess per week would be in addition to the 150 minutes of physical activity per week mandated by Florida statutes. Physical education class is not considered as a substitute for recess time because it involves a curriculum.

Author’s luncheon to benefit Julie’s Mission for critically ill babies The charity is supported by two grandmothers following the death of their 21-day-old granddaughter in 2004.

AMY QUESINBERRY RHODE COMMUNITY EDITOR

Patty Goonen was anticipating the birth of her daughter’s first child in 2004, a little girl who would be named Julie. But that joy was short-lived; the baby, born full-term on Nov. 24 at Arnold Palmer Hospital, survived only 21 days.

Julie’s paternal grandmother needed a way to channel her grief, so she founded Julie’s Mission the following year.

“She was inspired to honor her life by establishing a charity that would provide items of healing and comfort for critically ill babies and their families,” Goonen said.

Since 2004, more than 4,000 handmade items have been sent annually to 30 hospitals in Florida and the United States. Many are given to Winnie Palmer Hospital for Women and Babies in Orlando.

More than 300 volunteers sew, knit and crochet items requested by the hospitals. Incubator blankets with the mother’s scent are placed on babies. Baptismal dresses are made for christenings. Quilted memory envelopes give families of babies who don’t survive a place to hold keepsakes.

Volunteers make hats and booties, too.

CONTINUING THE MISSION

Goonen, a Windermere resident, serves as fundraising chair for the nonprofit. She has organized an author luncheon to raise money to help purchase materials and pay for shipping the handmade pieces. TooJay’s Original Gourmet Deli is catering the meal.

Orlando columnist and author Greg Dawson and his wife, Candy, will speak at the event. His book, “Hiding in the Spotlight: A Musical Prodigy’s Story of Survival,” tells the incredible story of his Jewish mother, Zhanna Arshanskaya, who escaped the Ukraine during the Holocaust and survived with a new identity and because of her musical genius.

Dawson will be selling and signing copies of his book.

A silent auction and raffle also will be held. Goonen said donated items include a Hummel figurine from Melvin’s Gardens, two tool sets from Lowe’s, two dinners from Cracker Barrel, a Brighton watch from Boutique on Park, handmade items from various private donors, framed artwork, art classes at The Art Room and two movie passes from West Orange Cinema. Themed gift baskets, as well as baskets of snacks and books, have been donated as well.

JULIE’S FAMILY

Will and Cathy Brantley welcomed baby Julie into their family at 10:32 a.m. Nov. 24, 2004.

The Brantley and Goonen families heard Julie cry only once in her three weeks of life, but the baby learned to recognize her

family’s voices and responded with a movement, hand grip and, at times, an increased heart rate. Doctors learned the extent of Julie’s medical issues during exploratory surgery but were unable to save her.

The Brantleys eventually had two more children, Colton and Adelyne.

RAVE OF THE WEEK

DEBRA NIX Rave! Winter Garden BBQ! Located in the back of the Chevron gas station on the corner of 50 and Beulah. My husband and I were driving by today and remembered about the new barbecue place. This is our second time going there and loved it again!

What they do to the meat loaf is beyond amazing!

I have never heard of “smoking meatloaf,” but wish I would have earlier.

I asked how they smoke it, and they said they have a smoker right outside the back door, and they smoke their meats daily using a combination of cherry and oakwood. …

One of my favorite things is the collard greens. They make them true Southern style with pork, bacon, salt and a touch of spice. My husband got the pulledpork sandwich, and they don’t skimp on the pulled pork; this is a two-handed sandwich. …What an amazing little barbecue joint. We will be back!

THE START OF SOMETHING

SPECIAL Emilie Scheetz, a junior at Windermere Preparatory School, makes her debut in professional theater with Mad Cow Theatre’s production of “1776.”

JENNIFER NESSLAR STAFF WRITER

W

hen Emilie Scheetz was 9, she stumbled across an afterschool musical the-

ater class.

She was cast as the witch in what she considered a “weird version of Snow White.” When she went on stage to sing her song, “I Got this Apple,” she felt the stage fright kick in.

“That’s first moment I realized, oh, I don’t know if I want to die of embarrassment right now, and I can kind of carry a tune, maybe this might be fun,” she said. “The more I did it, the more I thought, what an interesting way to tell stories and connect with a large group of people.”

Scheetz has performed in about a dozen shows since then. Now a 16-year-old student at Windermere Preparatory School, Scheetz is performing in her first production with Mad Cow Theatre.

The musical, “1776,” has an all-female cast, in a show that traditionally only has two female parts.

“The idea of it being all females is kind of like a political statement,” Scheetz said. “It’s makSEE STAGE PAGE 12

AMY QUESINBERRY RHODE COMMUNITY EDITOR WINDERMERE Windermere’s ear-

liest settlers seeking a place to worship in 1911 began meeting at the old schoolhouse on Seventh Street. Rotating pastors served the informal congregation until 1916, when 11 people of various denominations organized the Union Church of Windermere.

By 1920, services were being held every Sunday except in the summer months, when the Rev. John Champion returned to his home in Canada.

A building program was started after World War I, and on Jan. 4, 1924, the non-denominational church’s white sanctuary was dedicated at 436 Oakdale St. in downtown Windermere. There were no funds available for a furnace, so a Franklin stove was used for heating in the winter.

The church was declared debtfree the following year, and the note and mortgage were burned in April. A chimney for a furnace was built, but funds to purchase one weren’t available until later.

In 1929, the church voted to sponsor Boy Scouts. The first formal wedding uniting Juanita Lawrence and Hughes Browning was held June 18, 1932. Five years later, memorial windows were

LONGTIME MEMBERSHIP Kay Sims was a young teenager when she and her parents and three sisters moved to Windermere in 1941 and joined the local church, which had very few children. She and her sisters sang in the small choir, and her mother, Mabel Davis, was the first president of the women’s group.

She and her husband, Bill Sims, were married June 21, 1947, in the original church. He was in the U.S. Navy, so they moved around quite a bit. In 1968, they settled in Windermere and returned to the church. The Simses were together 62 years before he died six years ago.

Today, 88-year-old Sims, her daughter Laura Pinto, granddaughter Christiana Gonzalez and great-granddaughter Mea Gonzalez are active at Windermere Union.

The Grove’s 2nd Anniversary Celebration – Endless Summer

mere Union Church has assisting in building a community center in Zaire, Africa, constructed a home for a family in Guatemala through Habitat for Humanity and sponsored several Vietnamese families coming to West Orange County.

It also helps support the West Orange Christian Service Center.

Windermere Union eventually outgrew its space at Oakdale and Fifth streets and purchased property at 10710 Park-Ridge Gotha Road in 2002. A groundbreaking ceremony was held in 2005 on the seven-acre site. To retain some of the church’s long history, the congregation saved the stainedglass windows and pews from the chapel to be incorporated in the new church.

The first Sunday service was held at the new 250-seat church Sept. 17, 2006, with the Rev. Barton Buchanan at the pulpit.

The new campus included an 11,000-square-foot sanctuary and 5,900-square-foot preschool building.

In 2010, the church announced that New Hope United Methodist Church would be leasing the facilities. A new Brazilian congregation also found a home at Windermere Union Church. Igreja Presbiteriana Viva held its first Portuguese-language service June 20, 2015.

Happy Anniversary!

Saturday, September 17 from 4-7 pm Our second Anniversary celebration will be like no other!

A live DJ will keep us dancing while Polynesian dancers perform & teach their moves. Dancers will hand out leis to guests. Cake for everyone as well!

WINDERMERE UNION CHURCH PRESCHOOL

Boat & Watercraft Display Courtesy of

The preschool was founded by the Young Matrons Class of the Windermere Union Church in 1959. It had 15 students. It was the only kindergarten in the area at the time when area schools started with first grade.

Lucille Berry Hopkins was the school’s first director, assisted by Jane Anderson. In 1953, Hopkins had started a kindergarten for community children in her home.

Two years later, she moved it to the church. She continued to lead until 1966.

The preschool moved to the church’s new classroom building in the 1960s. Shirley Nesbit was director in 1967, and Jo Barton Tuck assumed the role in 1968.

The following year, 50 4- and 5-year-olds were enrolled in kindergarten. Tuition was $22.50 a month.

Other directors were Faye Bishop in 1985, Julia Bates Toone from 1986-88, Carol Williams from 1988-94, Ellen Annis from 1994-97, Karin Tambert from 1997-2002 and Kim Collins from 2002 to present.

Windermere Union Church, 10710 Park-Ridge Gotha Road, will recognize its 100th anniversary Sunday, Sept. 25.

A church service at 10 a.m. will include special music, including hymns from the last 100 years. The Rev. Roger Benton Seidner, who was the church pastor from 1968-88 and is now minister emeritus, will speak.

The celebration continues from 12:30 to 3 p.m. at the Ocoee Lakeshore Center, 150 N. Lakeshore Drive, Ocoee. A catered luncheon from Olive Garden Restaurants will be served.

The community is invited to the morning church service, but attendance at the luncheon is by invitation only.

“The church was created as a union church and accepted all people of all denominations back in 1916 — and that spirit has never left it,” Pastor Barton Buchanan said.

placed in the church.

A rise in membership and participation dictated more classrooms in 1940-41. The Rev. John Ischy organized a Young Matrons Class in Sunday school.

These women sponsored the first kindergarten, sponsored and financed the first Boy Scout Troop 223 and the first Cub Scout troop and furnished den mothers for the first three Brownie troops.

They also started the first church library.

A parsonage was purchased in 1953 for $14,500.

In 1961, the Windermere church became affiliated with the United Church of Christ following its formation as a new denomination in 1957. Windermere Union was the only church in town until 1961, when the First Baptist Church was started.

As the church membership grew, a larger sanctuary was necessary, and the campus expanded.

Windermere Union and First Baptist Isleworth combined youth and community programs at Windermere Town Hall in 1968.

It was decided in 1979 that the pastor’s home was in need of repairs, so it was sold for $69,500, and a new one was built on the church’s adjoining lot on First Avenue.

FUTURE PLANS Emilie Scheetz is interested in majoring in theater once she gets to college, but she will wait to see first what school she will be attending. Among her dream schools are Pace University and Emerson College.

EMILIE’S FAVORITE MUSICALS

On Broadway currently, Emilie enjoys “Fun House.” She also loves “Hamilton” — saying she’s been “bitten by the bug.” “1776” lines up well with Act 1 of “Hamilton,” which takes place during the Revolutionary War. Seeing “Newsies” on Broadway allowed her to realize drama was

ing everyone think a lot. Just the whole concept of the show, it’s triggering a lot of thought-provoking conversations.”

The musical covers the events in 1776, leading up to the signing of the Declaration of Independence and the Revolutionary War. Scheetz is the youngest actress in the show and plays the part of the Courier, who delivers messages to Congress from the battlefield. The courier acts as the sole voice in the musical that discusses realities of the war.

In the musical, the courier was expected to be between 14 and 16 years old, so the part is a good fit for Scheetz.

“She’s really quite special,”

CRITTER CORNER

Taking the stage said Mark Edward Smith, who is directing Mad Cow Theatre’s production of “1776.” “We had open auditions for the show and we saw a lot of people come in to audition for the show. Quite honestly, when (Scheetz) came in, it was obvious to us that she was the one we were going to cast in that role. She’s got a really natural presence on stage; she’s really honest in the way she approaches her character; she’s got an amazing singing voice.”

Smith said the show is one of the best-written musicals, and it helps people to really get to know the characters, even though audiences will recognize the characters from their history books.

In her first two years of high school, Scheetz attended Dr. Phillips High School. During her time at Windermere Prep and Dr. Phillips, she found she was cast in more motherly roles. But one of her favorite roles was Fiona in “Shrek the Musical.”

She is looking forward to performing for an audience that will consist of more than high-school parents and friends.

“I want audiences to leave not only thinking about the messages in the show but also the implications of the gender twist, or my song in particular, or really a lot of the songs just really stick with you,” she said. “I just want to affect people. I hope it makes people think.”

Cranberry (A358294) is a 1-year-old dog who is as sweet as her name. This pup is mellow, and she enjoys eating treats. She even knows how to sit in exchange for a treat.

Cranberry walks well on a leash and is a well-mannered dog. She enjoys playing with chew toys, and she loves attention. She likes to be petted and will make a loving pet.

What you’re holding in your hands is the product of more than a year of planning. It’s the product of our wildest dreams — a bold step for a company that last month celebrated our 110th anniversary.

Welcome, readers, to the first edition of the Windermere Observer, a sister paper of the West Orange Times & Observer, which has roots that date back to the Winter Garden Ricochet in 1905.

For more than a century, our newspaper — through all its previous owners and iterations — covered the entire West Orange region with just one edition.

Today, that changes.

Put simply: West Orange has grown too large for one hyperlocal community newspaper.

For longtime readers: this new Windermere Observer will cover Windermere, Horizon West, Dr. Phillips, Bay Hill, Gotha and MetroWest, while the West Orange Times & Observer will renew its focus on Winter Garden, Ocoee and Oakland.

As the 10th newspaper owned by the Sarasota-based Observer Media Group, the Windermere Observer will strive to deliver on OMG’s slogan: “You. Your Neighbors. Your Neighborhood.”

New DPHS cross-country coach settles into role Former LSU runner Laura Kirkikis has jumped right in as the new head coach of the Panthers boys and girls programs.

STEVEN RYZEWSKI SENIOR SPORTS EDITOR

Taking over the cross-country program at Dr. Phillips High — and following the veteran husband-and-wife coaching tandem of Jorge and Angie Fleitas — is no small task, but Laura Kirkikis has jumped right in to leading the Panthers.

Originally from the New Orleans area and a standout runner in high school who competed in college for LSU, Kirkikis was referred by a friend for the opening once the Fleitas’ relocated to Fort Myers, where Jorge Fleitas is now coaching at Bishop Verot Catholic.

“This one kind of fell into my lap,” said Kirkikis, who had previously been coaching as an assistant at her high school alma mater in Louisiana, St. Mary’s Dominican High School.

Now, after years of competing at a high level and getting her feet wet as an assistant coach, Kirkikis, 25, is embracing her first head coaching gig.

“It’s pretty awesome — just being able to kind of be in control of what the kids are doing and being able to make the decisions,” Kirkikis said. “It’s definitely been an adjustment, because there is a lot more responsibility, but I’m really enjoying it.”

Kirkikis inherits two teams that each competed at the state meet last year (Dr. Phillips’ girls placed fourth, and the boys placed 10th). But they also lost some valuable training time during the hiring process and graduated some key contributors from last year’s teams. At the Astronaut Invite

In what is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated games of the year — it will be broadcast live on television and on the radio — the Dr. Phillips Panthers will travel to Apopka to take on the Blue Darters Sept. 16.

Both teams are 3-0 and harboring state-titles hopes. And both — having cruised to their first three wins, respectively — are looking at this Week Four matchup as an opportunity to make a statement.

The game will be one where the matchup between the Panthers’ defense and the Blue Darters’ offense will be the most intrigu-

ing. In three games this season, Apopka has outscored its opponents by an eye-popping margin of 175-7. “(Rick Darlington) is the most brilliant offensive mind in highschool football, probably in the state,” Dr. Phillips head coach SEE PANTHERS PAGE 20

SPONSORED BY SHANNON TILL STATE FARM IN FOWLER GROVES

Emma Zhao Emma Zhao, a Windermere resident and a junior at The First Academy, was among 20 golf players from nine states and three countries recently selected as part of the 15th American College Development Solutions Junior All-Star Team. These 20 players were recognized as some of the top junior golfers in the world.

As part of the All-Star Team, Zhao was invited to play in the American Junior Golf Association’s Junior All-Star in Oregon next month, but she will not be competing there.

What was your reaction when you found out you made the All-Star team?

I’m really excited; it’s a great reward for my hard work.

in Titusville last weekend, the girls placed ninth, and the boys placed 17th; and at the DeLand Invitational to open the season, the girls placed fourth, and the boys place ninth.

Both teams are taking a bit of a long view this fall, with hopes of being in peak form by the time state series meets begin. “(The slow start) doesn’t mean that we won’t get there; it just might take us a little longer, which I’m actually OK with because the state meet is where it really counts,” she said. “We have a lot of talent on the team.”

Kirkikis and her staff have circled the Oct.8 meet in Tallahassee, the FSU Invite, as a good measuring stick meet to

determine how far the team has come. Run on the same course as the state meet a month later in November, the FSU Invite attracts some top competition.

Although new to campus, Kirkikis said she has noticed —

and enjoys — the seriousness with which sports are taken at Dr. Phillips High.

“They seem to be pretty intense with all their sports, which is pretty awesome,” Kirkikis said.

What’s your favorite thing about golf?

I think you have to be really strong mentally and physically in order to play (well), and I think it’s a really good sport.

Rodney Wells said. “If you try to do the same thing — have the same front, run the same blitzes — he will pick you apart. It’s like a chess game, and you’ve got to be in the right defense at the right time.”

Fortunately, the Panthers’ defense seems to be one of the few in Central Florida capable of slowing Apopka. Dr. Phillips has allowed just 17 points over its

first three games, some of which have come after the first-team defense was pulled. Add to that the recent memory of having let a victory slip away in a 22-20 defeat against Apopka in 2015 at home, and the players for the Panthers are eager to show what they can do.

“We are just going to have a great week of practice and study them real hard, study film and be ready to play them,” said senior defensive end Robert

Porcher.

The respect is a mutual one, as Apopka head coach Rick Darlington acknowledged Sept. 9 the challenge his team will face when they host Dr. Phillips.

“I know they’re (Dr. Phillips) really good,” Darlington said after his Blue Darters soundly defeated DeLand 35-0. “So it’ll be tough; there’s no question about it.”

Correspondent Jean Racine contributed to this report.

So, although he stopped short of calling last Friday’s 40-3 blowout victory against the Warriors revenge, the Dr. Phillips head coach acknowledged its significance.

“In my program, we don’t talk about revenge — we just talk about getting it right,” Wells said. “(Losing in 2015) hurt us — that crate hadn’t been away from Dr. Phillips in a long, long time. As we walked off the field and saw them celebrating with what we feel like is our crate, it stung.”

That stinging feeling Wells described wasn’t just coach speak to motivate players, either.

For seniors such as defensive end Robert Porcher, knowing the Week Three matchup could be the last time he gets to face West Orange meant that they had to get it right.

“They took that game from us last year; I’ve been waiting for this game for a long time,” said

What’s your favorite holiday?

Porcher, a Nebraska commit.

The Panthers raced out to a 12-0 lead before most of the fans had taken their seats Sept. 9, but then things slowed a bit as West Orange quarterback Austin Burton developed an early rhythm and the Warriors offense moved the ball. But, time after time, the West Orange drives stalled without reaching the end zone, and as the game went on, the Panthers’ defense frustrated Burton and the Warriors.

“We just mixed it up — played a little zone, a little man, a little cover two and a little cover -three,” Wells said, explaining the approach to containing West Orange’s talented quarterback. “That’s a guy (Burton) who is a Division I-quarterback for a reason … I hadn’t seen many guys that accurate.”

An interception returned 103 yards for a touchdown by Tanner Ingle proved to a pivotal moment in the second quarter as it extended the Panthers’ lead to 19-0.

TANNER’S TERRIFIC TRIO OF GAMES Panthers head coach Rodney Wells has seen his share of great defensive players come through his program, including the Green Bay Packers’ HaHa Clinton-Dix. Still, Tanner Ingle’s streak of touchdowns to start the season may take the cake.

Ingle had a kickoff return touchdown in Week One, a punt return and an interception return for touchdowns in Week Two and his interception returned for a touchdown in Week Three was a key point in the Panthers’ 40-3 win.

“Right now, what Tanner’s doing, I haven’t seen it before,” Wells said. “I’ve been around here for 14 years, and I have not seen anything like it.”

Kai Patterson passed for two touchdowns and ran for a third during the Lakers’ victory over Orangewood Christian Sept. 9.

W

indermere Prep coach Jacob Doss likes to joke that his team has traveled more than the Denver Broncos, a professional football team in the NFL, the first three weeks of the season.

With the estimated, round-trip travels of the Lakers (3-0) weighing in at nearly 2,200 miles, he might be on to something.

“We knew that those three games were asking a lot of our kids,” Doss said, praising the way the team behaved particularly during the trip to Houston for a game against The Village School.

Fortunately, it worked out with three dominating wins to start the season for Windermere Prep. Particularly on defense, the Lakers have allowed just 21 points over their first three games — good for an average of seven points per game on the road.

“The boys are playing at an extremely high level right now — I’m very, very pleased with how our defense has come together,” Doss said. “These guys take offense to any time someone scores or moves the ball.”

Most recently, in the shortest trip of the three, the Lakers dominated Orangewood Christian (0-2), 42-0. During that contest, Doss praised the defense’s bendbut-don’t-break nature and also the continued growth of transfer quarterback Kai Patterson. Patterson, a sophomore, passed for two touchdowns and 130 yards while rushing for a third touchdown.

While the bonding and growth in maturity that occurred over the Lakers’ road-swing to start the season may prove to be invaluable, Doss said it is nice to be returning home Sept. 16 for a 4 p.m. contest against Lake Mary Prep.

THE TRAVELING LAKE SHOW For the Windermere Prep Lakers’ first three games — all on the road — they did some serious traveling. Here is the breakdown: n Aug. 26 at Boca Raton Christian: 440 miles roundtrip (by bus) n Sept. 2 at The Village School: 1,700 miles roundtrip (by plane) n Sept. 9 at Orangewood Christian: 51 miles round-trip (by bus) n Total miles traveled: 2,191

CHALK TALK

Some notes from the Week Three action: n Windermere Prep’s Ismael Cortes had two touchdowns and 136 rushing yards on 11 carries (good for an average of 12.4 yards per carry) Sept. 9 against Orangewood Christian. n Dr. Phillips sophomore Marcus Tillman led the Panthers with nine tackles and two pass breakups during a 40-3 win over West Orange Sept. 9. n Panthers junior defensive back Tanner Ingle continued his remarkable streak of returns for touchdowns against West Orange Sept. 9, when he returned a interception 103 yards for a touchdown. n Micah Hurst, a sophomore player who contributes for Olympia on offense and defense, rushed for 109 yards and two touchdowns for the Titans during a 54-28 victory against Colonial Sept. 9.

21

Olympia High Titans ride win streak into district slate CYPRESS CREEK (2-1) AT OLYMPIA (2-1), 7 P.M. SCOUTING REPORT: When the Cypress Creek Bears arrive at Olympia High Friday night for both teams’ district openers, they will do so riding consecutive wins for the first time since 2009, when the Bears (2-1) went 5-6. Long a program that has struggled to gain traction, Cypress Creek rebounded after a 41-0 Week One loss to St. Cloud to defeat Liberty in Week Two, 27-13, and Harmony in Week Three, 14-8. Fortunately for the Titans, they are coming into this contest with some positive momentum, also.

Olympia’s offensive production has improved dramatically each week this season — from 12 points in a Week One loss to 20 points in Week Two to an impressive 54 points in their most recent victory.

LAKE MARY PREP (0-3) AT WINDERMERE PREP (3-0), 4 P.M. SCOUTING REPORT: Returning home after traveling more than 2,000 miles for road games the first three weeks of the season, the Lakers have a prime opportunity to improve to 4-0 and 2-0 within the Coastal Central Florida division. The numbers tell the story, as Windermere Prep is averaging more than 50 points per game and Lake Mary Prep is averaging 8 points per game.

OXBRIDGE ACADEMY (3-0) AT WEST ORANGE (1-2), 7 P.M. SCOUTING REPORT: West Orange’s only regular-season loss in 2015 came at this juncture in the season against Jacksonville’s Trinity Christian. When that game could not be scheduled again this fall, the Warriors replaced one powerhouse opponent with another. Per MaxPreps, Oxbridge

Academy comes into Friday’s contest ranked sixth in Florida and No. 33 in the nation, based on computer rankings. The Thunderwolves already have a victory to their credit over Flanagan — last year’s state champion in Class 8A, and may prove to be the tallest task the Warriors encounter this fall.

Oxbridge has allowed just 13 points in three games.

FOUNDATION ACADEMY (1-2) AT NORTHSIDE CHRISTIAN (2-1), 7 P.M. SCOUTING REPORT: It was later forfeited, but Northside Christian soundly defeated Foundation Academy 29-7 in 2015. Of course, after a victory at Carrollwood Day this past week, the Lions have shown that doesn’t necessarily mean much. Foundation Academy will need to slow down Northside’s leading rusher, Marcus Hooks, and continue its strong offensive play from last week to improve to .500.

ORANGEWOOD CHRISTIAN (0-2) AT CFCA (0-2), 7 P.M. SCOUTING REPORT: Somebody is going to get their first win of the season in east Ocoee Friday night. Both teams enter this Sunshine State Athletic Conference matchup averaging just six points per game.

OTHER OBSERVERPREPS. COM GAMES: Edgewater (0-3) at Ocoee (0-2), 7 p.m.

Timber Creek (2-1) at Wekiva (2-1), 7 p.m.

Evans (2-1) at Jones (3-0), 7 p.m.

Freedom (0-2) at Oak Ridge (1-2), 7 p.m.

BYES — TFA (3-0), Legacy (3-0)

n James Green finished with 10 tackles for the Olympia Titans in a victory over Colonial Sept. 9.

“We are so excited to finally play in our own zip code,” Doss said. “They’re just itching to play at home.”

LIONS GET FIRST WIN

After getting shut out 20-0 at home by Carrollwood Day in 2015, traveling to Tampa did not seem like the most likely scenario for Foundation Academy to earn its first win of the fall.

Fortunately for coach Brad Lord’s team, that’s just what happened.

Jaquane Patterson scored three touchdowns — two on offense and one on a pick-six interception — and new quarterback Jacob Titus rushed for three touchdowns in a 42-7 win for the Lions (1-2).

To pair with Foundation’s strong night on offense — a welcome change after the Lions had not scored a touchdown through the first two games of the season — was a strong defensive effort anchored by two players named Evan. Seniors Evan Fitzgibbon and Evan Thompson each finished the game with nine total tackles to lead the Lions.
