Africa Wanderings — A Cheetah Sunrise to Start the Day

The last photo we took last night was a Cheetah on a termite mound at Sunset. One of the first photos we took this morning was a Cheetah on a termite mound at Sunrise. We were up and out of Qorokwe Camp in the Okavango Delta at 6am headed back to where we last saw the female Cheetah with 5 Cubs hoping she still might be there.

On the way though we spotted fresh Cheetah tracks heading in the opposite direction. We followed the tracks for a short time spotting the Cheetah family in the distance on a termite mound scanning the landscape for something to eat.

The sun was up a bit but I figured we should now try for a Cheetah sunrise. Then for the next 4 hours we closely followed them as they hunted and played making some awesome images in gorgeous light. As the morning heated up they found a nice shady spot to rest so we decided to take a risk and headed back to Camp.

Hopefully we will find them again this afternoon when they re-start hunting as they haven’t eaten in days.

Got to love being on Safari in Botswana.

In a recent awards ceremony hosted by the Grand Key Resort, Key West Police Chief Sean Brandenburg awarded Officer Veronica Roman a Chief's Commendation.

On March 13, Officer Roman and her fiancé MCSO Deputy Zito rendered vital aid to a man while off-duty at Bahia Honda State Park. The 79-year-old man, while loading his boat onto a trailer, slipped and suffered a severe laceration. Officer Roman and her family pulled into the ramp and immediately rendered aid until an ambulance arrived.

Officer Roman and Deputy Vito further assisted by driving the individual's car with the boat and trailer, along with the individual's wife and dog, to their home.

Officer Roman's professionalism and dedication - on duty and off -- are in keeping with the core values of the Key West Police Department.

CITY OF KEY WEST TO CONDUCT ROAD ELEVATION SURVEY


From September 18th through October 6th, specialized trucks with the name "wood" on the side will be driving Key West streets collecting LiDAR data to evaluate the city's road elevations. LiDAR stands for Light Imaging Distance and Ranging and will enable the City to better plan, prioritize and budget elevation projects by vastly improving its street elevation data. The effort is part of a larger strategy to strengthen and harden the City's infrastructure and facilities in accordance with anticipated sea level rise as well as storm surge and flooding. Staff is already preparing to use the data to further stormwater, tidal, and sea level rise planning projects.


"We want the citizens of Key West to be fully informed about our efforts to protect the City and anticipate future areas of concern," said Key West Sustainability Coordinator Alison Higgins. "These maps are important groundwork for our upcoming Climate Adaptation Plan."


Wood Environmental and Infrastructure Solutions Inc. has performed LiDAR surveys for Monroe County and all other incorporated areas, working north to south. In Key West, Wood will evaluate 72 miles of road and the first floor elevations for critical facilities. Wood crews will be setting up the control survey for Key West in mid-September, by either painting or taping temporary arrow-like markings onto City streets. These markings are used to help the scanner match images together to enable a centimeter's accurate picture of our road elevations.


To stay up to date on the City's Climate Adaptation Plan, go to www.cityofkeywest-fl.gov<http://www.cityofkeywest-fl.gov> and look for the notify me button. From there you can sign up to receive updates via email.

Pictured Below: 60 volunteers join phade(r), and Keep Key West Beautiful, at Smathers Beach to remove trash and harmful plastics from the local coastline.


Key West, Fla. (September 6, 2023) - Community volunteers joined Keep Key West Beautiful and sustainable straw brand phade(r)<https://www.phadeproducts.com/> at Smathers Beach last Saturday as part of a cleanup that removed more than 300 pounds of trash from the beautiful local shoreline. This effort was the third of three statewide cleanups phade(r) organized with regional Keep Florida Beautiful chapters.


The Key West cleanup was organized to help combat the growing global issue of beach debris and ocean pollution, especially from single-use plastic products that can last in an environment for hundreds of years. While innovative, sustainable products like the phade(r) marine biodegradable straw are designed to prevent pollution, billions of pounds of plastic from years past remain in the ocean and on shorelines around the world.


"Keep Key West Beautiful believes that no cleanup effort is too small and that every piece of trash picked and disposed of properly is one less that has the chance of ending up in the waters surrounding the paradise we all call home," said Dorian Patton, Chair, Keep Key West Beautiful.


"While reducing, reusing and recycling are all extremely important values to help protect the environment, we know it's not enough to keep places like Smathers Beach healthy and pollution free," said Brad Laporte, CEO of phade(r) parent company WinCup. "phade(r) was created so that single-use items will safely return to earth after use, but we're also committed to ridding the environment from plastic and waste that is already here. That's why it was a pleasure to join Keep Key West Beautiful to help clean up the local shoreline in Key West."


phade(r) has grown to be a popular choice with large retailers nationwide who seek to operate more sustainably such as First Watch, Dunkin', Sam's Club, and several sports arenas across the country.

In a recent awards ceremony hosted by the Grand Key Resort, Key West Police Chief Sean Brandenburg recognized the accomplishment of several of our members for the first half of 2023. Among them were a number of Lifesaving Awards, including recognition of Officers Scott Standerwick, Raymond Roscoe, Tyler Getchel, and Andrew Litton.

On July 6, police responded to a call at Mallory Square. The caller reported that an emotionally disturbed man had taken all of his clothes off, jumped into the water, and was actively cutting his wrists. Three officers spotted the man and monitored his movement with the current while the Marine Unit responded. Using crisis intervention techniques, the officers were able to convince the man to get into the boat where they began life saving efforts.

“Had it not been for the quick action of all officers involved acting as they have been trained and using their excellent decision-making capabilities,” said Chief Brandenburg, “this man would have perished.”

Mayor Teri Johnston and the Key West City Commission honored Dr. Jonathan C. Carey, who recently received the President's Lifetime Achievement Award in recognition of his 5,000 hours of service to the United States of America through community development and emergency services.

Dr. Carey is a minister, author, certified life coach, an Assemblies of God USA commissioned chaplain, and the lead pastor of Glad Tidings Tabernacle in Key West. He has served as chair for the faith based juvenile justice program for Monroe County, served as disaster response chaplain throughout the country on a volunteer basis, and served as a volunteer counselor during the aftermath of the George Floyd killing.

Dr. Carey taught crisis and trauma care for debriefing purposes. He has volunteered as a worker during rebuilds after storms, developed a food assistance program and served in it, and served as a counselor on Native American reservations.

He has also served as a member of Key West Cares, and as a junior league baseball, football, and soccer coach.

The President's Lifetime Achievement Award was initially established by President George W. Bush as the President's Volunteer Service Award. It has become the President's Lifetime Achievement Award and is the most prestigious national recognition of extraordinary service.

"It an honor to live in the greatest city in the greatest nation and to add value to the greatest people on the earth," he told the commission as he accepted the award with his wife Shena.

In a recent awards ceremony hosted by the Grand Key Resort, Key West Police Chief Sean Brandenburg recognized the Criminal Investigations Unit with a Unit Award.

“The Detectives with the KWPD Criminal Investigations Unit often go unnoticed by the public,” he said, “but are always working to see the best possible outcomes for the yet-to-be-solved cases in Key West.”

The Detectives’ duties range from pawn shop inspections, sex offender checks and missing persons to cases such as long-term fraud investigations, death investigations, sexual batteries, and homicides.

They are often called upon for high-profile cases and are relied upon by our partnering agencies, including the Sheriff’s Office, Homeland Security, the DEA and the FBI.

“These men and women have collectively been assigned over 250 cases in the course of 12 months,” said Chief Brandenburg. “Together this Unit has over 70 years of law enforcement experience. This Unit’s dedication to the department and the community is reflected in their work, and without them, Key West would be a less safe place to live and visit.”

The Key West City Commission, in a 4-3 vote, approved the budget for fiscal 2023/2024 during the final public hearing on Monday.

The ordinance sets the millage rate at 2.0822 mills, which translates to $2.08 per thousand dollars of assessed property value. This is the same millage rate as the 2022/2023 budget.

Finance Director Christina Bervaldi points out that homesteaded properties are protected by the Save Our Homes Act cap of 3 percent or cost of living increase, whichever is less.

The overall budget, which includes proprietary funds like sewer and stormwater, is $252,048,018. The general fund, which is the City operating budget, is $89,919,383.

With over $22 million in grant funding identified and several increased revenue sources, the fiscal year 2024 budget continues to address many City of Key West strategic priorities identified by the community including environmental, sustainability, and resiliency efforts, a continued focus on City-wide cleanliness, street, traffic, and pedestrian improvements, and affordable housing initiatives.

The budget allocates funding for several major capital projects including the Southernmost Point repairs and enhancements and the construction of the John Jones Navigation Center and the Bahama Village Douglass Community Center. It allows for the development of a citywide Comprehensive Safety Action Plan for our multi-modal transportation efforts.

In addition to capital projects, there are major investments in public safety vehicles and equipment, the sewer and stormwater systems, and improved technology throughout the City.

Funds have been allocated for improvements to our City's numerous parks and recreational facilities, including enhancements at the Truman Waterfront Amphitheater, the turfing of the Dewitt Roberts softball field, and renovations at both Bayview and Cozumel Parks.

The budget includes allocations for increased personnel and operational costs, which all businesses and organizations in Key West are experiencing. It also provides assistance to youth recreational leagues and local non-profit organizations.

The City of Key West is proud to posthumously honor its native son Theodore "Fats" Navarro who was born in Key West and, after spending his childhood and adolescent years in the Bahama Village neighborhood, went on to a meteoric career as a jazz trumpeter.

At the September 14th City Commission meeting, District VI Commissioner Clayton Lopez and Mayor Teri Johnston and the entire Commission proclaimed the day Fats Navarro Day.

Navarro was one of the seminal figures of the bebop style of jazz improvisation, and as such made an indelible mark on American culture and the style of jazz that ultimately became synonymous with modem jazz. He is remembered as a musical pioneer who revolutionized jazz music and was often referred to as a musical genius by his peers. Many credit Navarro as being the harmonic link between Louis Armstrong and the beboppers in the 1940s.

Navarro won Metronome Magazine's award for best trumpet in 1949. In 1982 he was elected by a panel of international jazz critics into the Down Beat Hall of Fame.

Navarro's discography in bebop lists in the hundreds, including recordings with groups led by Bud Powell, Charlie Parker, Tadd Dameron, Kenny Clarke, Coleman Hawkins and Dexter Gordon.

Navarro's musical legacy is intertwined with the Bahama Village Music Program. Local musicians will continue a tradition celebrating this connection when they join together on April 24th at the Green Parrot and perform, raising money for the Bahama Village Music Program.

Navarro, reads the proclamation, “is one of our island city's great historic legacies, and forever woven into the cultural fabric of Key West, America and the world. Fats Navarro’s unparalleled musical creativity and exceptional talent have continued to delight jazz fans and inspire jazz musicians for decades and as one of the fathers of bebop.”
