MONROE COUNTY FIRE RESCUE WELCOMES FIFTH ‘HOT SHOTS’ CLASS TO TRAINING ACADEMY

 

GRASSY KEY, FL – Monroe County Fire Rescue welcomes its fifth “Hot Shots” class to Joe London Fire Academy on Grassy Key. Class 22-01 includes 29 qualified men and women starting the process of becoming a career or volunteer firefighter. Twenty-three of the students are residents of Monroe County. The Monroe County Board of County Commissioners continues to support the program that waives the tuition fee for qualified Monroe County residents in exchange for a commitment to volunteer or work as a career firefighter anywhere in the Florida Keys for three years.

 

“This program provides the opportunity to cultivate and develop the committed men and women that reside in Monroe County and introduce them to a prestigious lifelong career in the fire service,” said Fire Chief Steven Hudson. “This educational opportunity is a win-win to reduce turnover and retain these graduates in our community.”

 

Students who complete the 17 performance objectives of the firefighter program are prepared to take the State of Florida Firefighter II examination. To be hired at Monroe County Fire Rescue, a candidate must also complete EMT training.

 

The program finishes on Dec. 16. There are no new classes scheduled at this time. More information about the program can be found at www.monroecounty-fl.gov/hotshots or email Johnson-Cara@monroecounty-fl.gov.

About Old Island Restoration Foundation:

Old Island Restoration Foundation was founded in 1960 to stop the destruction of old town and to promote the preservation and restoration of historically significant buildings. During the 1950’s many valued architectural treasures were lost due to neglect or new development. These events galvanized preservationists to organize the nonprofit Old Island Restoration Foundation. Over the years, Old Island Restoration Foundation has raised and granted hundreds of thousands of dollars to maintain The Oldest House Museum and to award grants to restore historical buildings in Key West, including Old City Hall, The Custom House, The Martello Forts, The Key West Lighthouse, The Woman’s Club, several churches and more.

O.I.R.F celebrating, preserving, and promoting Key West’s unique architecture, culture and history. The Foundation is administered by a Board of Directors and staff. House tours are available six days a week. Visit www.oldesthousekeywest.com for information and tickets

August 26 was book release party set for local author and columnist Cricket Desmarais’ “Love on the Rock” dating column compilation

Author and Keys Weekly columnist Cricket Desmarais will release her newest book, “Love on the Rock: Irreverent Reflections & Terrible Dating Advice from a Key West Singleton,” on Friday, August 26 from 7pm – 9pm at Mockingbird Studios, 1616 Catherine Street in Key West. Desmarais will read briefly from the compilation of columns she wrote as a dating columnist for Florida Keys Keynoter from 2005 – 2006. “I never set out to be the Key West Carrie Bradshaw,” says the writer with an MFA from NYU. “While it tickled me to be called that, which people did, the truth of it is that the column was born because I got dumped. Hard.”

 

When a friend recommended she process the hurt through the written word, she used humor as her henchman then pitched it for print in the entertainment section of the paper she was freelancing for. She soon landed a completely unexpected commitment — a year-long gig delivering everything dating and relating, island style, as a weekly columnist. “At first I was a little nervous about sustaining interest, both for my readers and myself,” she says. “But because we live in a place where your date could be the ex of a friend or a friend of an ex, there was no shortage of absurd material.”

 

The 200-page book is a collection of all 52 columns that offer riffs, rants, interviews, and tips along with a little lust and longing— humorous and heartfelt content she thought local readers and beyond might like. 

“There are life-altering revelations to questions like “Is it true there are plenty of fish in the sea?”, “Can I fish from the company pier?”, “When is it best to throw your catch back,” she laughs. “And let’s not forget the timeless “Does size really matter?”. As the book’s title suggests, Desmarais says she’s no dating expert. “Make no mistake. Anything resembling advice is mostly meant to be entertainment,” she says. “How can you seriously take advice from someone who hasn’t had a proper date sine MySpace was the social media forum du jour, pronouns weren’t preferred, and cell phones flipped open only for phone calls?”

 

Regardless of authority, Desmarais hopes people will help her celebrate. “Who knows? “ she laughs. “Good time or long time— you just might meet “the one.”” For more information or to order a copy of “Love on the Rock: Irreverent Reflections & Terrible Dating Advice from a Key West Singleton,” visit CricketDesmarais.com.

Melody and Bob Bowersox send regards to ALL in Key West.. I asked them to keep us Informed : They are still in Philadelphia. Putting on FRESH INK SHORTS September 8-18 

https://m.facebook.com/events/5406161889467390

!

FRESH INK SHORTS is an intriguing, fast-paced evening of new original short plays by award-winning writers — from one-minute amuse-bouches to more elaborate courses of the comic, the poignant, and the wondrous strange. The eight to ten shorts are performed by seven talented actors, coming together in various combinations to build each new world they’ll inhabit. The individual pieces are separated by provocative sound and light cues that provide a rhythm and intensity that seamlessly move the action from one scenario to the next. From AI reaching singularity in a supermarket checkout lane, to a blistering single-word indictment of government, to musings on realizing you’re actually a God, FRESH INK SHORTS delivers a tantalizing 75 minutes of thought-provoking theater. Produced and presented by TheatreXP.

XO,

Melody

Here are the Commission Meetings for the Entire Rest of 2022 : September 7 & 20, October 6 and 19, November 1 & 15, and December 6


Members of the Mel Fisher family, City officials and the community gathered today to commemorate the sinking of the Nuestra Senora de Atocha and the entire 1622 fleet with the unveiling of a plaque. On this day, 400 years ago, 260 souls were lost in a raging hurricane. Also lost were 40 tons of gold, silver, and copper artifacts - until the persevering Mel Fisher located wreck in 1985.

Prior to the discovery, the treasure hunter had secured ownership of the wreck through the courts. He and his wife founded the Mel Fisher Maritime Heritage Society, a non-profit organization to support a collection of artifacts from the Nuestra Senora de Atocha and its sister ship, the Santa Margarita in perpetuity.

The plaque is located at Mallory Square alongside a time capsule that commemorates the 200th anniversary of the founding of Key West.

The cleanup joins together the community, the City, and non-profit organizations for a cleaner environment, which promotes positive community values, property values, and the economic vitality of Key West and the Florida Keys.

Julie Brown, a member of the Mayor's Beautification Committee, accepted the proclamation. She noted that there will be several locations around the island where groups can gather at 9 a.m. to help keep Key West beautiful. The cleanup will be followed by a picnic, she said.

"It's a good way to get to know your neighbors," she said. "Please join us on that day.

What’s cooler than cool?

 

Being named one of “The 25 Coolest Film Festivals in the World” by Moviemaker Magazine! The Key West Film Festival is honored to be named to this prestigious list, and we are grateful to Moviemaker Magazine for the recognition. Now is the time to mark those calendars as the 11th Annual KWFF is set for November 16-20 and is currently open for submissions.

 

In compiling the roster of 25 fab fests, Moviemaker and its esteemed contributors “focused on unforgettable experiences they couldn’t have had anywhere else. Yes, the festivals served their careers, getting them exposure and accolades and helping them for important relationships. But they were also cool — fun, affirming, validating. A reminder that by making movies, they were doing a thing that they truly love and will find endlessly cool.”

 

Here is an excerpt from the article, sharing why Moviemaker, and filmmaker Clint Bentley, believe the Key West Film Festival is one of the coolest… “What other film festival takes the filmmakers on a sunset sail?” asks Clint Bentley, who also praises Key West’s “amazing blend of marquee films of the year and discoveries,” and “great panels.”

 

It’s also known for drawing top-notch films: Last year’s 10th annual festival, which showed more than 75 films over five days, awarded Best Narrative Film to Pedro Almodovar’s Parallel Mothers, and the KWFF’s Annual Critics Award to Sean Baker’s Red Rocket. Its tagline sums things up nicely: “where passion meets paradise.”

 

So mark your calendars for November 16-20 and send your latest film our way! We present feature films, short films, music videos, and animated work of all genres, and our final submission deadline is coming up very soon. 


You can click right here to send your latest work our way via FilmFreeway.


And click here to read the full Moviemaker article and check out all of the other supercool fests that made the list!

 

See you in Key West this November! Check back here this fall for our festival schedule and to purchase your passes to “passion meets paradise.”

We start part 2 of a Photographic Feature from Popular You-Tube Content Provider "YESTERDAY TODAY TRIBUTE" "52 AMAZING PHOTOS FROM 1920s FLORIDA

Our Last Issue started Part 1 and had a Few Paragraphs of Florida in 1920s. Click this Issue link to see the first 14 Photos and Verbiage https://conta.cc/3Rd7Mog

Florida is a state located in the Southeastern region of the United States. Florida is bordered to the west by the Gulf of Mexico, to the northwest by Alabama, to the north by Georgia, to the east by the Bahamas and Atlantic Ocean, and to the south by the Straits of Florida and Cuba; it is the only state that borders both the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. Spanning 65,758 square miles, Florida ranks 22nd in area among the 50 states, and with a population of over 21 million, is the third-most populous. The state capital is Tallahassee and the most populous city is Jacksonville. The Miami metropolitan area, with a population of almost 6.2 million, is the most populous urban area in Florida and the seventh-most populous in the United States; other urban conurbations with over one million people are Tampa Bay, Orlando, and Jacksonville.

Various Native American groups have inhabited Florida for at least 14,000 years. In 1513, Spanish explorer Juan Ponce de León became the first known European to make landfall, calling the region La Florida ([la floˈɾiða] for its lush greenery and the Easter season (Pascua Florida in Spanish). Florida subsequently became the first area in the continental U.S. to be permanently settled by Europeans, with the Spanish colony of St. Augustine, founded in 1565, being the oldest continuously inhabited city. Florida was repeatedly contested by Spain and Great Britain, before being ceded to the U.S. in 1819; it was admitted as the 27th state on March 3, 1845. Florida was the principal location of the Seminole Wars (1816–1858), the longest and most extensive of the Indian Wars in U.S. history. The state seceded from the Union on January 10, 1861, becoming one of the seven original Confederate States. After the Civil War, Florida was restored to the Union on June 25, 1868.

Since the mid-20th century, Florida has experienced rapid demographic and economic growth. Its $1.0 trillion economy is the fourth-largest of any U.S. state and the 16th-largest in the world; the main sectors are tourism, hospitality, agriculture, real estate, and transportation. Florida is world-renowned for its beach resorts, amusement parks, warm and sunny climate, and nautical recreation; attractions such as Walt Disney World, the Kennedy Space Center, and Miami Beach draw tens of millions of visitors annually. Florida is a popular destination for retirees, seasonal vacationers, and both domestic and international migrants; it hosts nine out of the ten fastest-growing communities in the U.S. The state’s close proximity to the ocean has shaped its culture, identity, and daily life; its colonial history and successive waves of migration are reflected in African, European, Indigenous, Latino, and Asian influences. Florida has attracted or inspired writers such as Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Ernest Hemingway and Tennessee Williams, and continues to attract celebrities and athletes, particularly in golf, tennis, auto racing, and water sports.

About two-thirds of Florida occupies a peninsula between the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. It has the longest coastline in the contiguous United States, spanning approximately 1,350 miles (2,170 km), not including its many barrier islands. Florida has 4,510 islands that are ten acres (4 ha) or larger in area, the second highest number after Alaska. Much of the state is at or near sea level, and is characterized by sedimentary soil. Florida is the flattest state in the country, with the lowest high point of any U.S. state, at just 345 feet (105 meters). Lake Okeechobee is its largest freshwater lake, and the second-largest located entirely within the contiguous 48 states. Several beaches in Florida have turquoise and emerald-colored coastal waters.

Florida’s climate varies from subtropical in the north to tropical in the south. It is the only state besides Hawaii to have a tropical climate, and is the only continental state with both a tropical climate (at the lower tip of the peninsula) and a coral reef. Consequently, Florida has several unique ecosystems, most notably Everglades National Park, the largest tropical wilderness in the U.S. and among the largest in the Americas. Unique wildlife include the American alligator, American crocodile, American flamingo, Roseate spoonbill, Florida panther, bottlenose dolphin, and manatee. The Florida Reef is the only living coral barrier reef in the continental United States, and the third-largest coral barrier reef system in the world (after the Great Barrier Reef and Belize Barrier Reef).

Florida’s large population and economy give it considerable influence in national politics; since the late 20th century the state has been a major battleground in presidential elections, most notably in 2000. Miami, along with Orlando and Tampa, is recognized as a global city. (Wikipedia)

Below are some Features and Photos in a recent September E-Newsletter from CFFK

 

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The name “September” comes from an old Roman word, “septem,” which actually means 7. That's right – September was the seventh month of the year on the Roman calendar – It did not become the ninth month until the advent of the Gregorian calendar in 1582. The Romans believed that September was looked after by the god of fire, so they always expected fires and volcanic eruptions to occur during this month.

This September “Harvest Moon” is the fullest moon of the year. The Harvest Moon will be full on Saturday, Sept. 10. Why Is it Called the Harvest Moon? For several evenings, the moonrise comes soon after sunset. This results in an abundance of bright moonlight early in the evening, which was a traditional aide to farmers and crews harvesting their summer-grown crops. Hence, it's called the “Harvest” Moon.

Trinity Sanders (back row center) receives her second scholarship from the Katie Higgs-Wyrwicki Memorial Culinary Scholarship.

Trinity Sanders, who received a culinary scholarship in 2021, was recently awarded another $1,500 from the Katie Higgs-Wyrwicki Memorial Culinary Scholarship Fund. Her passion for cooking, coupled with her willingness to share her success story touched us here at the Foundation. Trinity is enjoying her culinary curriculum at the College of the Florida Keys.

Congratulations to the Florida Keys Council of the Arts for investing in the future of their amazing organization by creating a new endowment. Their $20,000 contribution was matched dollar for dollar by the Peter MacDougall Fund.

 

Congratulations to St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Key West for starting the Saint Paul’s Episcopal Church Endowment. Their $20,000 contribution was matched dollar for dollar by the Peter MacDougall Fund. Established in 1832, St. Paul's is the oldest church in South Florida.

 

The Community Foundation of the Florida Keys’ Middle Keys Advisory Council has awarded $8,000 in grants to help Marathon area residents.

“Our council of eight community members collectively decided how we could most productively assist our community. We want our donors and Marathon residents to know that we are here to help.” said Marian Buccafurni, chair of the Middle Keys Advisory Council of the Community Foundation of the Florida Keys.

She said the group is also funding Dolphin Pride Awards for elementary school students and will be considering other grant opportunities throughout the year.


Stanley Switlik Elementary School in Marathon received a $2,000 grant for the purchase of equipment and materials for its after-school student clubs. These students pictured are just part of the new fishing club, which is one of the many electives the students can choose from.

Presenting the check (back row left to right) are Middle Keys Council members C.M. Bishop and Sarah Adams, Switlik Principal Christine Paul, council member Lavarski Smith, Kevin Bowes from the Community Foundation and Bill Eller, Switlik Health and Wellness Coordinator.


St. Columba Episcopal Church received a $2,000 grant for the purchase of equipment, arts and craft supplies, and reading materials for its after-school program. We took a visit to the church to see the beautiful new additions and enjoyed our walk in the peaceful garden, full of shaded trails and butterflies. There is a separate structure in the back for the kids, fenced in for safety and stocked with new playground equipment.

COUNTY CONTINUES TO ADVOCATE FOR LOCAL CONTRACTORS NOT STATE LICENSED.MONROE COUNTY – In 2021, the State of Florida Legislature passed House Bill (HB) 735, which preempts local occupational licensing.“The passing of the bill affected many small businesses in Monroe County that were locally licensed,” said Monroe County Assistant Building Official Rey Ortiz. “The passing of this bill caused the Contractors Examination Board of Monroe County to no longer be able to issue licenses specified in the law.” 

Due to the bill’s passing, many companies that have been in business for some time may be unable to pull permits starting in July 2023. The Monroe County Contractors Examining Board (CEB), an eight-member appointed board made up of those in contracting industries, along with Monroe County Building Department staff, is compiling a series of direct questions and concerns regarding HB 735 to forward to the Dept. of Business and Professional Regulations. Industry input is encouraged at the regularly scheduled Tuesday, Sept. 13 CEB meeting. The meeting starts at 9:30 a.m. Additional information on the CEB can be found at www.monroecounty-fl.gov/ceb, including the Zoom link for the meeting. Questions and comments can also be emailed to contractor-license@MonroeCounty-FL.Gov.

“This will affect everyone from the state licensed general contractor to the local specialty licensed contractor that the state doesn’t offer an equivalent license for who has been in business for 20-30 years, and the homeowner,” said Rudy Krause, Chairman of the CEB. “If something doesn’t change, homeowners will need to be very aware of unlicensed, uninsured contractors. Before the bill, the County’s process created a safe and even playing field.”

The County Attorney and Legislative Affairs are also working with the Florida Association of Counties and other counties experiencing the same issues to advocate for changes to HB 735 in the upcoming state legislative session. 

HB 735 reads, “A local government, as defined in s. 163.211, may not require a person to obtain a license for a job scope which does not substantially correspond to the job scope of one of the contractor categories defined in s. 489.105(3)(a)-(o) and (q) or authorized in s. 489.1455(1). For purposes of this section, job scopes for which a local government may not require a license include, but are not limited to, painting; flooring; cabinetry; interior remodeling; driveway or tennis court installation; handyman services; decorative stone, tile, marble, granite, or terrazzo installation; plastering; stuccoing; caulking; and canvas awning and ornamental iron installation.
