The national economy is recovering fromone of the worst downturns in the nation’shistory, but it is a recovery that is just “mud-dling along,” according to Sean Snaith, directorof the Institute of Economic Competitivenessat the University of Central Florida.
“It was the worst recession since theGreat Depression,” he said. “The recovery isalso historical. It’s historically weak.”
The good news for Florida and for PascoCounty is that they are seeing better growththan the nation as a whole.
On the plus side for Pasco, people aremoving into the county.
“More people brings more economic ac-tivity,” said Snaith, who was a guest speakerat the Annual Economic Forecast Luncheonhosted by the Pasco EconomicDevelopment Council on Feb. 5 at the
Tampa Bay Golf & Country Club.“People and employment growth will
continue. We see some momentum. There’sa lot of construction activity on the way.”
Florida’s growth is outpacing the nation,he said. Florida’s growth rate is about 4 per-cent, compared to a national rate of 2percent.
The state also posted good numbers forjob creation in the last quarter of 2015, andthat likely will continue.
“That’s our launching pad,” Snaith said.“We still have momentum on our side.”
He is especially bullish on the Interstate4 corridor, which he described as the “breadbasket for growth.”
According to Snaith, the recession endedin 2012. But, Craig Weber, general managerof Crown Community Development, sawsigns of recovery in the Wesley Chapel area

ZephyrhillsWellness centercelebrates opening By Kevin Weisskweiss@lakerlutznews.com
Florida Hospital Zephyrhills officiallywelcomed community leaders and residentsto the ribbon-cutting of its CREATIONHealth Wellness Center on Feb. 4.
Dozens took the opportunity to tour the13,000-square-foot facility, which is housednear the hospital’s campus on the northeastcorner of Daughtery Road and Dairy Road.
The nearly $500,000 project is approxi-mately three times the size of the formerwellness center, which was located on thefirst floor of the hospital.
The old facility, which shared roomspace with the hospital’s cardiac rehab de-partment, was a “tight fit,” according toSusan Frimmel, the hospital’s marketing di-
rector.The new facility was a “long time com-
ing,” said Casio Jones, wellness centerdirector.
“When I walked into the (old facility) al-most five years ago, I said, ‘This is not goingto work.’ It was there since 1995, and whenI got there in (2011), they were still usingequipment that was purchased in 1995,”Jones explained.
The center’s 24-hour fitness floor con-sists of brand-new cardio machines, circuitmachines and free weights.
Jones noted the wellness center is for apeople of all ages and fitness levels.
To properly accommodate the wellnesscenter’s all-encompassing membership,Jones said all fitness specialists are degreedin exercise science and have “high-end certi-fications.”
“We have such a variety of special popu-lations, from active people to those withhealth conditions…so we need to makesure our staff is able to provide a safe-train-ing environment so when somebodycomes, they’re not just on they’re own anddon’t know what to do,” Jones explained.
Over 30 group exercise classes are of-fered throughout the week, ranging fromspin classes to Zumba to Pilates.
Jones said the fitness classes are impor-tant, because they provide an environmentwhere members can both “socialize andwork out.”
In addition to the 24-hour fitness floor,
the center features a full-service spa — of-fering skin care treatments, massages, bodytherapy, waxing and pampering.
“Gyms in this area don’t have spas,” saidJones, who’s worked in the health and fit-ness industry for more than 30 years. “Whenyou think of CREATION, it’s the whole body.You can’t just have a gym without the relax-ation part; you have to help the personrejuvenate to recharge.”
There’s also an education room, whichJones referred to as the “hidden gem.” Freehealthy cooking classes will be taughtthroughout the week, as well as informa-tional sessions on other aspects of health,such as diabetes care.
“Now you’re truly impacting not just thatperson, but their household,” Jones ex-plained about the education room. “Youhave people that are potentially over-weight…can learn the appropriate ways onhow to live and manage their life.
“Without the right information, you can’t

William J. Lennox Jr., has been well-versed on the strengths of Saint LeoUniversity for years.
Before assuming his current role on July1, the retired U.S. Army three-star lieutenantgeneral served on the school’s board of di-rectors for nearly seven years.
But now, as Saint Leo’s president, Lennoxis seeing the university from a new vantagepoint.
“When you’re on the board, you have the60,000-foot view. And, I’m working my waydown to the 6-foot view,” said Lennox, whowas superintendent of the U.S. MilitaryAcademy at West Point for five years.
Now, Lennox, who prefers to be calledBill, said he sees firsthand both the strengthsof Saint Leo’s people and of its mission. Thefocus on teaching, the small class size andthe university’s clear set of values are key at-tributes, he added.
“You put that all together, you get quite apackage,” Lennox said.
Given his background, the former mili-tary leader said: “People have asked meabout the difference between West Pointand Saint Leo.
“The similarities are more striking (thanthe differences). The strong mission state-ment. The focus on teaching and smallclasses. The value system. The people,”Lennox said.
Unlike West Point, however, Saint Leo’sstory is not nearly as widely known.
“I think we’re the best-kept secretaround here,” Lennox said.
He’s working to change that.“We’re going to add a V.P., (vice presi-
dent) for marketing. That is going to help usboth with the targeted marketing, but alsowith the branding. I think a lot of peoplethink we’re this sleepy little organization,”he said.
“Not many people understand that we’rethe third-largest Catholic university,” headded.
With an enrollment of 16,000, the univer-sity has about 2,400 students at its campusin Saint Leo, and the rest take classes eitheronline or in person at locations across sevenstates, in such cities as Atlanta and Savannah,and in the Tidewater area of Virginia, he said.
Saint Leo’s brand is very strong in themilitary, he noted. “People recognize SaintLeo and want to attend. And, I think thattransfers out to the civilian populations inthose areas, too.”
But, military cutbacks and security issuespose a challenge.
“Some of the posts are becoming veryconcerned about security. If you don’t havea military ID card, you might not be able toget on. So that cuts some of the civilians outand the young veterans, who may have onlyserved three or four or five years, becausethey don’t get an ID card,” he said.
To address that issue, “we want to look atmaybe a model like we have in Tampa,where we have a presence on MacDill (Air

By Helene RubensteinGrand Horizons
On Jan. 30, the community center atGrand Horizons was filled to capacity withapproximately 160 residents enjoying apulled-pork dinner that consisted of a deli-cious sandwich with baked beans, Cole slawand a cupcake.
The pork was donated by the Bahrs. Thecooks that prepared the pork were Newt’snephew, Kevin Bahr, and Newt’s son-in-law,Marty. They did a terrific job, and everythingwas done to perfection.
Kevin runs the air conditioning and gas,while Marty runs the aluminum. Kevin isquoted as saying, “We have a lot of businessfrom the residents of Grand Horizons, and itis time for us to do something special forthem.”
Brian Heidman hosted this event and setup the chairs, and for a crowd this size, itwas some job. The head chefs were Andyand Margaret Castonguay, while they alsohad plenty of help. Their helpers werePauline and Jack Gadbois, Fred and PatMengel, and Ron and Joyce Bell. JohnBenfield said grace before dinner, and thenwe all had a delicious meal.
Twenty-six women gathered at Piccola’sItalia Restaurant on Feb. 2 This outing was
hosted by Robbie Lockard, and what a finejob she did. Everyone in attendance met atthe community center to discuss futureluncheons and to make sure everyone had aride. There was much talking before themeal came. After the meal, some peoplewent straight home, while others went toLakeland for some shopping.
Thanks go to Robbie for arranging thisouting.
By Ian Marwick (the happy scribe)Happy Days RV Park
Yes, the first month of the “trifecta” sea-son — January, February and March — isfinished. We should not be sad about this. Itwas a great month! Not just because we hadsome terrific activities that kept us all hop-ping in a literal sense, but mainly we missedthe white monster up north. You know —
snow — that wonderful thing that makes allthose Christmas Day pictures so scenic. Thatlad, senor El Nino, has just promoted Floridato a premier senior destination this season.Even if we do not speak Spanish, we appre-ciate the translation and snowbirds werespared. Hooray for no snow plows.
January was a hectic month as usualwith this season’s activities in full swing, butall the specials topped the cake. Highlights
were the park breakfast,karaoke, ice cream social,rec hall sale, potluck din-ner, Friday music jams,turkey shoot, hot doglunch, and the yummy pieand cake auction (whichbroke the record at $740),and the Chef Phil annualchili supper, the one eventwhere you can enjoy itnow and again next morn-ing. Another seniorspecial, double the pleas-ure for the same price!
On another note, hectic aptly de-scribes our park team of Judy, Danand Jeremy with our park happilybusting at the seams. We all notice theenergy and dedication they expendto keep the wheels turning. Next timethey go by while serving us, wave,give them a smile and throw a thankyou. Thanks, we do appreciate all theeffort.
And now, the spring event thatdrives the sensible person crazy wasjust completed. It can be called mini-golf. It can be called redneck golf. Or,the easy description is goofy golf.What can be said. More than 145crazy residents participated in ourversion of ‘Tom Foolery,’ on a trackthat covered the entire park, in threehours in clothing that any motherwould send you to the woodshed for.Our team accounting firm of “Beatemand Cheatem” is diligently pouringover the score cards now to finalizethe winners. It is a purely a viciousrumor that for some reason the“goofy” team has absconded with theproceeds and took off for Buffalo. Staytuned next week for the real story.

Ideas clash for solving traffic woesBy Kathy Steeleksteele@lakerlutznews.com
A proposal for a flyover at State Road 54and U.S. 41 got a big thumb’s down at a re-cent transportation task force meetingaimed at finding solutions for reducing con-gestion on one of Pasco County’s busiesteast/west corridors.
In fact, the idea of a flyover anywherealong State Road 54 and State Road 56 be-tween U.S. 19 and Bruce B. DownsBoulevard met stiff resistance.
About 50 people, including members oftwo separate task forces, residents andPasco County officials, met Feb. 2 atRasmussen College to discuss options.
Task force members pressed county offi-cials to consider using frontage roads toease congested intersections and to pre-serve access to local businesses and shops.
The task force also approved a motion toask county planners to determine the feasi-bility of the frontage road option.
“Our solution is at grade, which is whatthe public wants,” said Tom Ryan, a taskforce member and economic developmentmanager at the Pasco EconomicDevelopment Council. “It (flyover) infringeson their quality of life. There is no wayaround it. It will affect quality of life.”
Ryan was joined by task force memberRobb Sercu who also tossed out ideas for at-grade alternatives rather than flyovers.
The meeting was the first joint session ofEast and West task forces, which beganmeeting separately in September. Each wasappointed as an advisory board to the PascoCounty Metropolitan PlanningOrganization. Their task is to recommend upto five alternatives that the MPO can consid-er for future transportation projects overthe next 20 years. One option is not to buildanything.
The West Task Force is studying StateRoad 54 from west of U.S. 41, and the EastTask Force, from east of U.S. 41.
However, discussion at the joint meetingquickly focused on the intersection of StateRoad 54 and U.S. 41 as a priority that likelywill be the first road project to need fund-ing.
“That is the most congested location atthis time,” said Ali Atefi, a transportation engi-neer with MPO.
The Florida Department ofTransportation held a public hearing inJanuary to get input on two alternatives forelevated lanes over U.S. 41. Many who at-tended said they came away believing theywould pay tolls.
“That’s what got a lot of people upset inour area,” said task force member FredKnauer. “If I go to Lowe’s, I have to pay atoll?”
Atefi said tolls could be a source to payfor the roads, but that hasn’t been decidedyet.
County officials also noted that evenwith elevated lanes, there would be at-gradethrough lanes at the intersection.
Some of those attending the meetingwant tolls to be an option, to help reducecongestion.
“Toll roads do have a place,” said taskforce member Marilyn DeChant. “They take
drivers off grade and put them up (on ex-press lanes). They do have a place to beconsidered.”
But, task force member Susie Hoeller saidtoll roads could hurt elderly residents onfixed incomes and local businesses that dodeliveries.
“People in government, they don’t lookat the real impact on people’s lives,” shesaid. “I think it’s a bad idea.”
Whatever option that gains approvalshould be one that is feasible and reason-able, said Ryan.
And, any option that involves construc-tion will cause disruptions including thepurchase of right-of-way, he said.
“We shouldn’t hide away from discussingeminent domain. These are going to comeup,” he said. “There’s a business or two thatmight have to move.”
Keystone Community Church, at 21010State Road 54, also could be in the path offuture road construction.
“We’re in a growth mode now,” saidWayne Hawes, chairman of the church’sboard of directors. “Are we going to wasteour money if we expand our facilities?”
Even if funds were available now, Atefisaid construction could be between sevenand eight years away.
Funding more likely won’t be availableuntil after 2020.
Some people at the meeting expressed
frustrations and skepticism about the plan-ning process.
Dave Miller said the county’s long-rangeland use plan is too focused on increasingdensity.
“This is social engineering,” said Millerwho lives in west Pasco, off Little Road andState Road 54.
“They are trying to force people intohigh rises on transit lanes. You need tothrow this back at them (Pasco County andthe state). This is not workable,” Miller said.
Others seemed skeptical that their ef-forts on the task force would be takenseriously.
“Ultimately it’s going to be what theywant it to be,” said task force memberChristie Zimmer. “I’m praying it’s not that,and we won’t get something stuffed downour throats.”
Her remarks drew some applause.Task force members will complete sur-
veys in the next weeks to identify up to fiveconstruction alternatives, plus a no-build op-tion.
The West Task Force will vote on alterna-tives at its final meeting on March 28. TheEast Task Force will do the same at its meet-ing on March 31. Both of those meetingswill be from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., atRasmussen College.
The planning organization will do addi-tional study on the top selections.

“Sales of lots are really strong,” Webersaid.
Interstate 75, State Road 56, the widen-ing of State Road 54 and The Shops atWiregrass led the way.
More development has followed, includ-ing Tampa Premium Outlets and CypressCreek Town Center. “All of this makes it thenew center for Tampa Bay growth,” Webersaid.
Locally, businesses are benefiting fromthe area’s growth as well, said Tim Fredritz,account executive at Dex Imaging Co.
The national chain has 25 offices inFlorida, including one in Hudson. The com-pany had healthy growth even during thebad economy, Fredritz said. “People always
need copiers.”But, new businesses in Pasco, including
Wesley Chapel, mean new opportunities,he said.
There are caution signs, Snaith warned.Global economies are slowing, notably
in China. Brazil could be headed into itsworst recession in 100 years. Greece has25 percent unemployment overall, withyouth unemployment at 50 percent.
One in eight Canadians come to Floridaeach year, but Snaith said the Canadian dol-lar has fallen in value against U.S. currency.
“That’s going to change behavior andhow they spend when they are here,”Snaith said
There also is the potential for a nationalrecession, though not on the scale of thelast one.
“Don’t go into your panic room,” Snaithsaid. “Generally speaking, you’re in a regionthat’s growing faster than the state and gen-erally faster than the nation. This is a prettygood place to be.”

The wellness center had a soft openingtwo weeks ago, and already has over 700members, Jones said. He hopes to have over1,000 members by year’s end.
According to Jones, the wellness centerhas seven exercise instructors, five personaltrainers, five massage therapists, two estheti-cians, an acupuncture specialist, a nailtechnician, a community educator and a dia-betes educator.
Florida Hospital Zephyrhills Presidentand CEO Randy Surber said it was importantto have a wellness facility that’s not only fit-ness oriented, but also promotes living abalanced lifestyle.
“We believe the balance between fitness
and staying active is really key to futurewellness, but we also believe in nutritionand what you put in your body has a signifi-cant influence on your health,” Surberexplained. “Our goal is to keep people ac-tive, teach them how to eat right, and alsopamper them every now and again, too.”
Surber feels the new wellness center willbe “transformational” to the Zephyrhillscommunity.
“A lot of people really wanted this andare eager for this,” Surber said. “We believewe can teach them the right way to live in away that can help them extend…their quali-ty of life.”
Tim Linville, president of the ZephyrhillsChamber of Commerce, was impressed bythe wellness center’s “holistic” nature.
“It’s nice there’s other options for peoplein Zephyrhills as the city grows,” the cham-ber president said. “It’s gorgeous.”

Force Base) and we have (a location in)Channelside,” he said.
The Channelside location has helpedraise the university’s profile, he said.
Channelside is also situated in an areathat Lennox expects to develop over thelong-term.
“So, we’re well-positioned,” he said.Besides raising awareness about the uni-
versity’s existing footprint, Lennox wants toincrease its responsiveness to studentneeds.
To that end, the university wants to offerstudents an opportunity to take classes face-to-face, take classes online, or do both,Lennox said.
“We want them to be able to go backand forth, very freely.
“We want to appeal to the student, andlet the student be able to choose,” he said.
He also wants the university to fosterstronger ties with corporations, enabling itto work out agreements to teach classes incorporate boardrooms or training rooms.
“Starbucks just signed with Arizona StateUniversity,” he said, and he doesn’t see whySaint Leo can’t work out similar arrange-ments.
“Why can’t we offer that as an advantageof coming to Tampa?” Lennox said.
He believes the university is quite capa-ble of delivering such services.
“We’re pretty agile,” Lennox said.“I’m tired of people asking me where
Saint Leo is. I tell folks the answer is: We arewhere you want us to be,” he said.
He’s bullish on the university’sprospects, because he’s confident in what ithas to offer.
“My take is that if you’ve got a greatproduct and people want it out there, whynot expand it? That’s what I’d like to do,”Lennox said.

Jim Harte did not expect Spencer Peekto be playing soccer this year.
That’s because the head soccer coach forCarrollwood Day School didn’t see howPeek could recover from the 17 brokenbones the teenager sustained in a single-caraccident on Aug. 17, 2014.
Peek, 16 at the time, broke both armsand legs. He also broke his sternum andpelvis.
The accident, occurred near ChevalBoulevard, at Wimbledon Court, in Lutz,when Peek’s car hydroplaned because ofrainy conditions. The car hit a speed limitsign and an oak tree before sliding about 70feet sideways on the road.
“To watch him come back was hard toimagine,” said Harte, who has coached atCarrollwood for four seasons. “I honestlythought he wouldn’t play again.”
The Patriots’ soccer season is over. Theteam fell 3-0 to St. Petersburg Catholic onJan. 29 in the Class A region quarterfinals.
But, that doesn’t overshadow Peek’s im-pressive battle to get back onto the field,including four surgeries and extensive reha-bilitation.
“When he first came out of the wheel-chair, and I watched him move — and I’man optimist — I was looking at him moving,thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, I don’t know howhe’s going to do it,’” the coach said. “To ex-pect that he could be our starting centermidfielder is amazing. He has come so far.”
The accident left Peek wheelchair-boundfor about a quarter of his junior year.
Unable to play soccer during the 2014-
2015 season, Peek helped Harte on the side-lines, serving as a sounding board, of sorts.
Harte often turned to Peek for advice onin-game strategy and the use of personnel.
“I would consult him during the games,”Harte said. “He was very engaged on thatlevel. He was like an assistant coach.”
Peek said the opportunity to view the
game from afar turned out to be a “prettyunbelievable experience.”
“Coach Harte is such an amazing coach,and for him to show me the respect that hedid — being a junior in high school — andhe still listened to me,” Peek said. “I did learna lot from a different perspective, becauseI’ve always been a player on the soccerteam. For him to have the conversationswith me, to include me the way he didwas…eye-opening.”
Peek’s work on the sidelines helped himgain a deeper understanding of the game,helping to offset his initial loss in footspeed, athleticism and conditioning.
“He got by on his will and his brains.He’s a very smart player, and he reads thegame very well, which means he doesn’thave to run as much as someone who does-n’t read the game as well as he does,” Hartesaid about his team captain. “He anticipatesand knows where to find a play, and thinktwo or three passes ahead. He studies theopponent, and within the first 10 minutesof each game, he’s kind of got the opponentfigured out.
“Getting up and down the field was verychallenging, but he mitigated that by hisability to read the game,” Harte said.
Peek, also a former standout footballplayer at Carrollwood, said one of thebiggest challenges of performing on the soc-cer field was getting back into his “physicalbeing.”
Before the car accident, Peek was a well-built 6-foot, 190-pound teenager. By the timehe started walking again, Peek had witheredto 140-pounds.
“I had lost so much weight, I was almosta skeleton. I felt so much skinnier and so
much weaker,” said Peek, who has since re-turned to 190 pounds. “It was just physicallyabout gaining back my size, my legs, gettingmy mass back. I feel much more solid than Idid five months ago.”
Peek said the rehab and recoveryprocess was a battle, and noted that beingstuck in a hospital bed after the accidentwas tough.
“When you’re in that situation, at leastfor me, I couldn’t dwell on it,” he said.
Instead, Peek focused on the future.“It was about mentally keeping myself
on the track, and not straying off and feelingsorry for myself,” he said.
“I was unbelievably blessed to have myfamily and friends really rally around me.That was my source of strength,” he added.
Rendered completely immobile for threeweeks after the accident forced him to “seethe world through the eyes of somebodywho’s permanently handicapped,” he said.
That broadened his understanding, hesaid.
“To even get a glimpse of what (handi-capped) life is like just really shows youhow strong the people are that face that sit-uation permanently,” he said.
Despite the trials and tribulations, Peeksaid he wouldn’t change what he has gonethrough.
“The way I saw life before compared tonow — you think more about things afterexperiencing something like that,” he said.
“I just feel like I’m more conscious ofwhat I’m doing,” Peek said.
“Your entire outlook changes and youunderstand how quickly everything can betaken away,” he said. “I’m so much moregrateful for everything now.”

Land O’ Lakes boys basketball coach DavePuhlaski got his 400th career win when theGators defeated Sunlake High 76-40 on Feb. 3.
Many expected the longtime coach toreach the milestone on Jan. 29, when his teamheld a sizeable 20-point halftime lead overRiver Ridge, but the Gators collapsed and ulti-mately lost in overtime, 57-55.
“I thought we might get it then and couldfocus on the district (tournament) totally, but itdidn’t work out,” said Puhlaski, who’s in his27th season as head coach at Land O’ Lakes.
While a 400th win is an impressive coach-ing milestone, Puhlaski deflected credit for hisaccomplishment —instead praising his play-ers, assistant coaches and his wife, Erika.
“It’s just been the combination of a lot ofgood players over a lot of years and a lot ofgood assistant coaches,” he said. “And, my wife— she’s been at every win and every loss —she’s been an integral part of it.
“It just means I’ve been around for a longtime,” he added.
While Land O’ Lakes (14-9) enjoyed a 36-point victory over Sunlake (0-17), the Gatorstrailed 15-12 at the end of the first quarter in
the Class 6A, District 8 semifinal.“We were trying to do too much in the first
quarter,” said senior guard Taddeus Dixon. “Theteam just came together and said, ‘We have to(work) together and not individually.’”
Puhlaski said both defensive breakdownsand turnovers were to blame for the earlydeficit against an overmatched Sunlakesquad.
“They hit a few shots on us, and usually wetry to live off our defense, but we weren’t col-
lapsing or pushing the ball to the middle ofthe floor,” he explained. “We were not gelling.”
After the initial back-and-forth, the Gatorspulled away in the second half, outscoring theSeahawks by a 39-15 combined margin in thethird and fourth quarter.
“It felt really good for the whole team,”Dixon said about the win and his coach’s mile-stone. “We always say it’s never over ‘til it’sover.”
Land O’ Lakes athletic director Karen Coss
said Puhlaksi’s 400th career win “definitelyshows his dedication and his commitment tothe school.
“That is one heck of a milestone, that’s forsure,” Coss said.
Puhlaski’s success over the years also canbe attributed to his passion and his ability tomotivate, said Tedd Poore, who’s had threesons — Max, Jake and Nick — coached byPuhlaski.
“Everybody ‘s real excited for Dave. He’sbeen an institution in this community for over20 years,” Poore said. “A lot of kids have comethrough his program, and he’s been instrumen-tal in advising and guiding boys when theyneeded it the most.
“He really cares.”Puhlaski didn’t say how much longer he
plans to coach at Land O’ Lakes, but there’ssome indication he may stick around at leastuntil his son David Jr., who’s a sophomore,graduates from the school.
Coaches in Pasco County serve on annualcontracts, but Coss said she doesn’t foreseeany changes occurring with Puhlaski’s rolewith the program “as long as he’s teaching(physical education) here and wanting tocoach here.”
Prior to being named the Land O’ Lakeshead coach in 1989, Puhlaski served as an as-sistant at Ocala Vanguard for three seasons.That was followed by a one-year stint as an as-sistant at the University of Tampa.

gospel music,” she said.“They would have music nearly the en-
tire day, and then they had (what theycalled) ‘dinner on the ground,’” she said.
They spread blankets out on the groundand enjoyed a potluck feast, Wise explained.
She also noted that Wesley ChapelUnited Methodist Church, for whom manybelieve the community was named, operat-ed only from 1890 to 1892, at the corner ofState Road 54 and Boyette Road.
Besides its church life, Wesley Chapelwas known for its moonshining, gator hunt-ing and turpentine stills, Wise said.
The timber and turpentine industriesalso played a significant role, she said. And,many ranching operations were founded onland where timber had been depleted, andthe land was sold off for for tax deeds, Wisewrote.
Over time, many of Wesley Chapel’sranches and citrus groves have given way toshopping centers, homes, schools, churches,a state college and other developments.
Of all of the changes through the years,Wise thinks the construction of Interstate75 had the biggest influence on the commu-nity’s growth.
“I think that’s the most significantchange. Wesley Chapel would not be what it
is today without that. It really did change thelandscape,” she said.
As she conducted interviews, trackeddown records and gathered photographs,Wise developed a wealth of knowledgeabout Wesley Chapel.
Despite her prodigious research, though,there were some questions that she couldnot answer.
For instance, she couldn’t pinpoint theexact boundaries of the community – anissue still debated today.
And, she couldn’t determine preciselyhow the community got its name.
Some said it was named after an early set-tler. Others, claimed it was after John Wesley,founder of the United Methodist Church.
As for Wise?She’s content, for now, to leave those
questions open.
By B.C. Manionbcmanion@lakerlutznews.com
Writing about local history isnothing new for MadonnaJervis Wise.
The Zephyrhills woman traced the histo-ry of Zephyrhills, and also of Dade City, forbooks published by Arcadia Publishing, ofCharleston, South Carolina.
Now, she has written another book forthe publisher’s Images of America series.This one focuses on Wesley Chapel.
When the publisher asked her to do theWesley Chapel book, Wise knew it would bechallenging.
Unlike Zephyrhills and Dade City –which both have city governments, historicbuildings and established town centers,Wesley Chapel offered no clear place forWise to begin her research.
So, Wise relied on her background in ge-nealogy to help her track downdescendants of families with deep roots inWesley Chapel.
She began her quest by tracking downMarco Edward Stanley, of Gainesville, whoarranged for Wise to interview his mother,95-year-old Lillie Sapp Stanley.
The historian met with members of theStanley family, and that interview led to oth-ers.
When she interviewed David Brown,Michael Boyette, Bill Smith or members ofthe Stanley family, she discovered the fami-lies shared deep bonds.
“There was this cohesiveness among thesettlers,” Wise said. “They would talk abouteach other in this real, deep caring way.”
Putting together Wesley Chapel’s historybook meant interviewing scores of pioneerdescendants, culling through land records,visiting properties and even putting togeth-er a map to get a sense for what it used tobe like.
Through U.S. Census records and inter-views with primary sources, Wise learned thenames of the families of many early settlers,including Asbel, Barnes, Boyette, Bradley,Cooper, Ellerbee, Geiger, Gillette, Godwin,Hill, Kersey, O’Berry, Overstreet, Ryals, Smith,Stanley, Strickland, Thomas and Tucker.
Some of those names, she discovered,had various spellings, such as Stanley andStandley.
She also discovered that the community
was known by various names through theyears. Those names included Godwin,Double Branch, Wesley, Lemon andGatorville – and finally, Wesley Chapel.
One surprising discovery, she said, wasthat women have long been acknowledgedfor the prominent role they played in thecommunity.
“Pioneer women of Wesley Chapel wererevered for their tireless days of toil, with anurturing spirt and the skill to raise largefamilies,” Wise wrote.
For instance, Francis Asbury Barnes’granddaughters, Martha and Vida, played piv-otal roles in Barnes’ ranching operations.The women, Wise wrote, were “industriousmanagers of land and cattle.”
Photographs and anecdotes in the 127-page volume paint a portrait of a placewhere people worked hard and cared abouttheir neighbors. It was a community wherethe church was the central gathering place.
“This was a haven for the SingingConvention,” Wise said. “That’s somethingthat occurred a lot in the South, but it wasreally, really prominent here.
“It occurred any month that had a fifthSunday,” she said.
It was described by one descendant asWesley Chapel’s ‘Grand Ole Opry.’
“It was hosted usually at the DoubleBranch Church (now known as the FirstBaptist Church of Wesley Chapel), and peo-ple came from everywhere,” Wise said.
“When I interviewed Cullen Boyette, hesaid these barbershop quartets that were onthe radio would come here. Mostly, it was
PHOTOS COURTESY OF MADONNA JERVIS WISEThe collection of turpentine is also known as a ‘naval store.’ This 1890s photograph, courtesy of the Florida Library & Archives, shows aturpentine operation, which consisted of extracting sap from the bark in narrow strips, a few inches from the ground, and then usingmetal or earthenware cups to catch the sap.
A car parked at the end of a cypress log inthe 1930s illustrates the enormity of thetrees that were felled in the Wesley Chapelarea. Large timber companies or trustsacquired vast tracts of land that were deplet-ed of lumber. Many deserted the claims,once the limber was harvested and theproperties were sold for tax deeds.
Ranches were a significant part of Wesley Chapel’s history. An outstanding TexasLonghorn-Ankole bull was 15 years old and had a horn span of 54 inches, when he died atK-Bar Ranch in Wesley Chapel.
Mittie Lula Wells, standing in an orangegrove, was the daughter of MaryElizabeth Gaskin Wells and John WesleyWells. She married Fernie Pasco Cooperin 1908. Pasco Cooper, as he was called,cut lumber on land owned by J.D.Rockefeller. Lumber trusts, such as theowned by Rockefeller, preceded largeranching operations in Wesley Chapel.
