Leadership From the Top Helps Steer Florida Through Irma

Florida has quite a history with hurricanes. These storms are an enormous test for our state and local leaders. Governor Rick Scott passed that leadership test while being a firm, steady, consistent voice for citizens.

Scott’s constant presence on television and social media in the days leading up to the storm prepared our citizens for the wrath of Irma and clearly helped convince many to evacuate at appropriate times.

There is no doubt this Governor’s leadership helped save lives during Irma. It is one more reason for Floridians to be confident we can overcome anything Mother Nature throws at us.

Feeding the Masses

Alan Wolfelt once said, “Food is symbolic of love when words are inadequate.” Well, local restaurateurs certainly showed their love throughout Hurricane Irma.

Mom and pop shops stepped up to the counter to feed those at shelters and first responders – from Gaines Street Pies making and delivering pizza to more than 500 evacuees, to Tasty Pastry firing up the bakery and supplying bread for OG Subs, to local DoubleTree by Hilton’s Drew McLeod cooking meals until the food ran low.

These are just a few selfless examples of our hometown heroes providing much needed relief to a storm-weary community.

After Irma, Thank a First Responder

Side of a fire truck.
First responders, law enforcement and electric utility lineworkers are getting Florida back on its feet.

In one of the country’s largest evacuations, northbound roads in Florida were clogged with millions evacuating Hurricane Irma. Southbound roads saw a different scene; law enforcement and bucket trucks from all over the country racing to join those who stayed behind, our brave first responders.

After the storm passed, the number one priority for all of these individuals was to keep Floridians safe and get things back to normal as quickly as possible. Based on the quick recovery efforts, I’d say they’ve done just that.

If you see a lineman or first responder today, offer them a heartfelt “thank you.”

Price Gougers Beware

Dollar bills sticking out of a gas tank.
Following Hurricane Irma, the Attorney General's office is urging Floridians to safeguard themselves from price gouging, contractor scams and looting.

Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi and her team are charged with many important tasks before, during and after a natural disaster. One important item for the public to remember is their price gouging hotline, 1-866-966-7226.

It is unlawful for any merchant to sell necessary commodities at a grossly inflated price 30 days prior to the declaration of a state of emergency. That includes things like food, ice, gas, lumber, etc.

As Florida continues to recover from Hurricane Irma, we can all help and watch for bad actors who may try to take advantage of this serious situation.

Get your garnet and gold ready – the Florida State Seminoles return to Doak Campbell Stadium this Saturday to take on the North Carolina State Wolfpack.

With prior games rescheduled due to Hurricane Irma, the September 23 match is FSU’s first home game this season. It’s also the first time quarterback James Blackman takes the field after starting quarterback Deondre Francois was injured earlier this month. Despite losing to the Wolfpack in 2012, FSU currently holds a four-year win streak over NC State.

Head over to the football stadium this Saturday for the 12PM game and cheer on the Seminoles!

Florida Hispanic Heritage Month 2017

The side of a castle.
The Castillo de San Marcos in St. Augustine was completed in 1695 and was designed by Ignacio Daza.

September 15–October 15 marks Florida Hispanic Heritage Month, and this year Governor Rick Scott and First Lady Ann Scott chose “A Recognition of the Role of Hispanic-Americans in Shaping Florida Today” as the theme.

It’s Almost Fall!

Colorful fall leaves.
Fall brings a changing of the color of leaves on Tallahassee's varied trees.

It’s almost here: the first day of fall! This Friday, September 22, marks the official change in seasons. For Tallahassee, that means we’ll start to feel cooler, crisp air and see more of those those bright blue, cloudless skies.

It also means lots of annual events, many of which take advantage of the pleasant weather and use the outdoors as their backdrop. And, of course, fall means football.

Curious to know more about events occurring in Tallahassee during the autumn months? Visit Tallahassee maintains a great calendar of local events. Step outside and enjoy some of our area’s fantastic events!

Generation Z Has Different Priorities

Woman wearing a white blouse shaking hands across the table.
Generation Z makes up one-fourth of the U.S. population. Its oldest members are now in their early 20s.

Unlike millennials, Generation Z (born after 1995) grew up in uncertain times, so they have different priorities. This is important for employers to know, because members of Generation Z are now seeking their first jobs.

Three things to know about Generation Z employees:

– They like to communicate via social media. Post jobs via their preferred platforms: YouTube, Snapchat and Instagram.

– Company culture is important to them, so show you care about your employees.

– They seek stability. Discuss long-term career opportunities, even if it’s a part-time job.

To retain Generation Z employees, offer flexibility, growth opportunities and job security.

Marsy’s Law for Florida Pursuing Equal Rights for Victims

Marsly's Law logo.
Marsy's Law is named after Marsalee "Marsy" Nicholas of California, who was stalked and killed by her ex-boyfriend in 1983.

Marsy’s Law for Florida, a crime victims’ advocacy group, recently announced they will bring language before the Florida Constitution Revision Commission (CRC) to place equal rights for crime victims on the 2018 ballot.

If passed by the CRC and approved by voters, the measure ensures crime victims and their families are provided with enforceable constitutional protections – the same level that are afforded to those accused and convicted.

Pasco County Sheriff and CRC Commissioner Chris Nocco, along with state Sen. Lauren Book, shared their support for Marsy’s Law through video announcements. View Sheriff Nocco’s video here and Sen. Book’s video here.

Lobbyist Association Hosts 13th Annual Conference in Orlando

Florida Association of Professional Lobbyists flyer.
FAPL members meet Sept. 6-8 with a packed agenda, including elected officials and industry professionals.

Mention the word lobbyist and what images come to mind? Backroom deals by cigar-smoking fat cats, perhaps? Well, nothing could be further from the truth.

In fact, it is one of many reasons why a group of individuals founded The Florida Association of Professional Lobbyists (FAPL) in 2002.

FAPL’s mission is to establish and maintain high standards for the lobbying profession, focusing on education and ethical conduct. It also created a gold standard, the DPL (Designated Professional Lobbyist), for those government relations professionals who develop in-depth knowledge of the legislative and political process, its rules, regulations and ethics.

Due to Hurricane Irma, the FAPL conference has been postponed.

Help Those Affected by Harvey

Flooded streets.
Hurricane Harvey caused historic flooding affecting thousands along the Gulf Coast.

Imagine sitting hopelessly as your world fills with water, your memories floating by as you board a rescue boat at your front door.

When Hermine hit Tallahassee last year, people from Texas, Louisiana, Alabama and across the nation rushed to our aide. It’s time for us to pay them back with a flood of support. Volunteers from Florida are responding to the devastation our neighbors to the west are experiencing.

The need is great, and help simply cannot wait. Donate now to the American Red Cross as a way to say thank you to those who were here for us.

Mingo Mania

Plastic flamingo.
Did you know a group of flamingos is called a flamboyance? Well, now you do.

Florida is famous (or dare we say, infamous) for many things: alligators, Florida Man and our fascination with quirky lawn ornaments. And, what could be more quintessentially Floridian than a flamboyance of flamingos in a front yard?

Well, you can now find all things flamingo (whether that’s rainbow, wedding or holiday) at Mingo Mania, located at the Cottages at Lake Ella. Just in time for football season, they offer FanMingos, flamingos adorned in the colors and accessories of your alma mater, so you can better taunt your neighbors.

Hours are 10AM-6PM, Monday-Friday, and 11AM-5PM on the weekends.

Committee Weeks Are Here

Inside of Florida's capitol building.
Get ready to welcome legislators back to town when legislative committee meetings begin Sept. 12.

Commence the yearly trek of lawmakers to Tallahassee. On Tuesday, House and Senate members will gear up for the 2018 Legislative Session with the first of six scheduled committee meeting weeks.

For the past several years, even-numbered years means session begins in January, making it much easier for September committee meetings to sneak up on us.

While we know when session starts, the real question is what legislation will pass once it begins. Many issues, such as assignment of benefits and workers’ compensation reform, were not resolved in 2017. Will this be the year something is done?

Stay tuned.

Florida’s Highwaymen

In the early 1950s, a group of 26 African-American painters began painting beautiful, natural Florida landscapes with vivid colors. They traveled along highways I-95 and A1A selling their artwork. At the time, no one would display or sell the work of unknown African-American artists.

However, in the 1990s, a demand for “outsider” art and a 1995 New York Times article about these incredible Highwaymen helped skyrocket demand for their work.

James Gibson, one of the most successful Highwaymen, was a fourth-generation Floridian from Fort Pierce. View his beautiful paintings and learn more about the Highwaymen here.

Antiquing in the Big Bend

Inside of a vintage shop.
The Other Side Vintage in Railroad Square is full of fun and quirky finds, from antique records to vintage clothing.

There is something magical about stepping into an antique shop — being surrounded by furniture, clothing and knickknacks from an earlier time, each piece with its own unique story.

One of my favorite weekend activities is exploring antique shops in the Big Bend area, which is home to many popular locations packed with vintage treasures, including The Other Side Vintage in Tallahassee; The Shoppes at Havana Trading Company in Havana; and Huckleberry’s Creations in Monticello.

Mad Men’s Don Draper called nostalgia, “a twinge in your heart far more powerful than memory alone.” Revel in nostalgia and rediscover the past through antiquing.

Grandparents Honored Sept. 10

Grandpa hugging his grandkids.
Celebrate National Grandparents Day on Sunday, Sept. 10.

According to Karl Pillemer, a professor of human development at Cornell University, 9 out of 10 adult grandchildren cite their grandparents as a key influence in their lives. President Jimmy Carter agreed. In 1978, he declared the first Sunday after Labor Day would be set aside to honor grandparents.

On Sept. 10, we recognize the important role our grandmothers and grandfathers play in our lives, from teaching us about our ancestors and inspiring family traditions, to serving as role models and providing a constant source of love and support.

Be sure to thank the grandparents in your life on Sunday.
