Arnold High School: A Triple-A Educational Experience

By Britt Smith, Principal, J.R. Arnold High School

Arnold Hs Img 2292Arnold High School prides itself on providing our students with a Triple-A educational experience! These A’s represent Academics, Arts, and Athletics. The success of our Marlins can be seen in the various awards bestowed upon them each year. This month we spotlight our Marlin Athletic programs and their success in both competitions and in the classroom!

Athletically, Arnold High School once again had the highest achieving sports program in Bay County and in the Panhandle. The Florida High School Athletic Association awards the Floyd E. Lay Sunshine Cup All-Sports Award to schools based on the level of success of all sports programs. Overall, Arnold High School placed fourth in 5A Class rankings for the Sunshine Cup. Our Lady Marlins finished third in the state while our Marlins got sixth. We are proud to say that we are the highest-ranked public school in Florida’s 5A classification!

Arnold Hs Img 2096Last year our Marlins achieved several feats that no other school was able to achieve. For example, both our boys and girls soccer teams played for the FHSAA State Championship. Our Marlins earned the State Champion title while our Lady Marlins were the State Runner Up. In weightlifting, our Lady Marlins earned the State Championship title and the boys team got the second-highest point total during the Championship match. This was the first time that a school in Bay County had a single high school win FHSAA State Championships in both boys and girls sports during the same year.

Arnold Hs Img 1717Our boys and girls teams were consistently performing at the highest levels throughout the year. Over 90% of our sports teams competed in the FHSAA State playoffs. Four Arnold student-athletes earned individual state championships.

While our teams and individual athletes have had tremendous success athletically, they are also excelling in the classroom. For example, Arnold earned the highest GPA award for all Winter Sports Teams and during the school year, seven of our athletic teams earned the highest GPA for all teams during the time their sport was in season. The overall grade point average for Arnold athletes was 3.53. These grades represent the pride and dedication our athletes, their coaches, and the teachers have in being a “student-athlete.”

For many of our Marlins, this success in both athletic competition and in the classroom resulted in a dozen of our seniors earning college scholarships to continue their sports and academic careers at the next level.

The 2021-2022 school year looks to be another excellent opportunity for Marlins to demonstrate their championship-caliber skills as scholars and athletes! #GoMarlins

ISO: PCB’s Best Places to Celebrate Oktoberfest

By Jack Smith

The French are known for their cuisine, the Italians for their fashion, the Scottish for frugality, and the Germans, well BEER. They make it, they sell it, they drink it, hell, they even celebrate it. Oktoberfest started a long time ago when some dude married some princess, anyway it was pretty boring and we’ll skip that part. The festival begins when the mayor of Munich taps the first keg and then all hell breaks loose. Last year alone the people of Munich downed over 6.7 million liters of beer. The beer mugs in the tents don’t carry the brewers logo, only stamped “Munich Beer.” For medical treatment of intoxicated tourists, the German Red Cross operates a medical facility on festival grounds. Where are these guys during Mardi Gras? (Asking for a friend.)

Medical Spa vs. Day Spa: Know the Difference?

Dr Stacy KehlBy Stacy Kehl, APRN, FNP-BC

Going to the spa is a fun way to spend a few hours relaxing and addressing skin problems you may be experiencing, but is there a difference between a Medical Spa and a Day Spa? The answer is yes! A Medical Spa has a Medical Director (a doctor, a nurse practitioner or a physician assistant) who is a licensed healthcare practitioner with advanced training and knowledge in esthetics. The Medical Director oversees the products, devices, and services provided in the spa. Not every procedure is performed by the Medical Director, but all of the services are supervised by him or her. A Day Spa can provide many services like facials, massages, waxing and makeup, but without a Medical Director, they cannot provide high-powered treatments or injectables.

The popularity of the Medical Spa has increased dramatically in the last 10 years, and if you’ve seen one Medical Spa, well, you’ve seen one Medical Spa! Each Medical Spa is unique, from the services offered to the overall environment of the office. Some are very spa-like, while others are more like a medical office. From family practices that offer esthetics in addition to medical care, to practices offering only esthetics, there’s a perfect fit for whatever you need. In my practice, my patients see value in having a “one stop shop” for their medical and esthetic needs. As a practitioner with an artistic side, I love being able to offer both services to my patients.

SkincareThe choice of Medical Spa or Day Spa depends on your goals. I’ve spent my share of days in a Day Spa, and thoroughly enjoyed every minute of pampering I’ve received. But, once I got into my mid-30s, I realized my skin needed a little more than just pampering! Medical Spas offer just that – they address more of the age-related skin (and sometimes medical) issues and give long-lasting results

Here is a short list of nonsurgical (read: inexpensive) treatments you can only get in a Medical Spa:

Neuromodulators (botulinum toxin) like Botox, Xeomin, and Dysport. If you’re looking to reduce frown lines on your forehead this is for you! No other treatment offers faster results with less downtime. In just a few minutes, in the capable hands of a medical provider, you can achieve a smooth forehead (and more)! Most results are noticeable within a weeks time and last for about 3 months, sometimes even longer.

Chemical Peels utilize strong acid solutions to restore and rejuvenate the skin’s surface. Downtime depends on the formulation applied, but typically treatments cause redness and/or peeling for about a week. A peel can reduce uneven skin texture, age spots, sun damage, and fine lines.

RF (radiofrequency) Microneedling is a process of placing tiny pin-pricks in the skin to encourage collagen production, thereby reducing scars, enlarged pores, fine lines and wrinkles. While standard microneedling can be performed at a Day Spa, RF microneedling can only be performed by a licensed medical practitioner. The addition of the RF increases the power of the treatment to give improved results.

Dermal fillers eliminate wrinkles and increase volume in areas where volume is typically lost during the aging process. Fillers can be used for smile lines and in the lips (most popular). Fillers done correctly can produce very natural looking results without a “plastic” appearance.

Book Review: The Prince of Tides By Pat Conroy

Review by Jack Smith

The Prince Of TidesMy apologies to William Faulkner and James Lee Burke, I still believe Pat Conroy was the greatest writer to ever come out of the South. All three were true “Sons of the South;” they appreciated its charm and hospitality while never hesitating to explore the darker side. Pat was raised by an overbearing Marine fighter pilot and a Junior League mother. This contradiction of parental guidance helped Pat understand the Ying & Yang of the modern South. Although all of his novels are national treasures, I think “The Prince of Tides“ is in a class by itself. Based loosely on his own family, he manages to capture the warmth and wonders of a childhood growing up on an island off the coast of South Carolina. The book also exposes a dark family secret that caused the breakdown of each family member. Published in 1986, this became Conroy’s most successful book and reviewers immediately acknowledged him as a master storyteller and national treasure.

Tassels has been designing spaces in Panama City Beach for over 15 years and they have a location at 12017 Panama City Beach Pkwy., Panama City Beach that’s full of gifts, unique art pieces, lighting, furniture and more for all your fall and winter needs. One of my favorite fall items from Tassels is their animal print rug. They just scream cozy fall and make for a great gift.
The Beach House Market is the next stop for your fall shopping. Locally owned and operated by Tina Patterson, they have been here for over 15 years and are located on the west end of the beach at 17900 Panama City Beach Pkwy.

Vintage tea towels, praline mustard glaze, golden pecan pepper jelly, and some lovely brass pumpkins are a few of my favorite fall items available at the Beach House Market.

If you have your husband with you, The Turtle Girls Market is great stop for you as right next door is the House of Handsome Barber Shop where your husband can get a haircut, beard trim, barber steam facial, and even some nose hair waxing if needed. For all the local men that didn’t know this existed, you’re welcome!

Owned by Andrea Mauldin, a local interior designer, Nest Interiors offers design services, but also has a boutique store with lots of beautiful treasures for décor and those special Christmas gifts. You will love her pumpkins made from velvet and her fall jewelry.

The Treasure Box will be your next local stop for fall décor and Christmas gifts. Locally owned by Chris and Michelle Mauldin, it is located on Thomas Drive and if you blink, you might pass it. It is at 1711 Thomas Drive and full of treasures for inside and outside whether you’re in search of décor for fall or that special Christmas piece.

A couple of other unique boutiques around town that I would like to mention are The Salt Shed, Bob’s House Furniture, and the Salty Mermaid Marketplace. All of these local shops are very welcoming with great people. We hope you enjoy your shopping treasure map and shop local this fall for all your décor and special Christmas gifts!

Construction Starts on Latitude Margaritaville Watersound Town Center

The partners behind Latitude Margaritaville Watersound announced that construction has started on the Town Center. Latitude Margaritaville Watersound is located on Northwest Florida’s gorgeous Emerald Coast near Panama City Beach and the Scenic Highway 30A corridor. It is the third of the incredibly popular, award-winning Latitude Margaritaville communities for those 55 and better who are growing older…but not up.

In April 2021, 13 colorful island-style model homes opened to an overwhelmingly positive response from homebuyers. Planned to be the largest of the laid-back lifestyle communities to date, the initial phase of Latitude Margaritaville Watersound is anticipated to include approximately 3,500 homes. Construction on the first phase of homes is in progress.

Phase one Town Center amenities include a dynamic Town Square that features an amphitheater with a thatched roof bandshell, full-size concert stage, jumbo screen for concerts and movies, and special recessed dance floor that provides a little give and spring for dancers.

Dining and refreshment choices will include a two-story Bar & Chill restaurant overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway, Changes in Attitude Bar, and Overlook Bar. A state-of-the-art Fins Up! Fitness Center will include an indoor pool and spa. In addition, there will be a lagoon-style Paradise Pool with beach-like entry and Tiki Island.

Additional amenities include tennis and pickleball courts with lighting for night play and a Barkaritaville Dog Park. Future planned amenities include a Workin’ N’ Playin’ Center, Last Mango Theater, Hangar Workshop for golf cart tune ups, and Barkaritaville Pet Spa.

Latitude Margaritaville’s all-new approach to active adult living has captured the imagination of today’s vibrant and active adult home buyers. More than 550,000 are registered as Latitude Margaritaville Paradise Club members to receive ongoing information on the communities.

The Latitude Margaritaville sales center and model homes are open daily. Four distinct home collections, the Conch Cottage Collection, Caribbean Villas Collection, and Beach and Island Collections of single-family homes, capture the “no worries” tropical vibe that defines Latitude Margaritaville. Floor plans range from 1,204 to 2,568 square feet under air with pricing from the mid $200s.

Latitude Margaritaville Watersound is being developed in a dynamic partnership that includes master developer Minto Communities USA (“Minto”), global lifestyle brand Margaritaville Holdings, and The St. Joe Company (NYSE: JOE) (“St. Joe”). Latitude Margaritaville Watersound is the first of the popular communities to be developed in partnership with St. Joe. The first two Latitude Margaritaville communities by partners Minto and Margaritaville are located in Daytona Beach, Florida and near Hilton Head, South Carolina.

Latitude Margaritaville Watersound is located between Pensacola and Panama City, near Panama City Beach, and situated in the heart of St. Joe’s vast Bay-Walton Sector Plan that encompasses approximately 110,500 acres with approximately 15 miles of frontage on the Intracoastal Waterway. Just a short drive from the famed Scenic Highway 30-A corridor with its beautiful white-sand beaches, this region is the embodiment of the relaxed, beachy vibe that is at the heart of the Latitude Margaritaville lifestyle.

In addition to the many Latitude Margaritaville amenities, St. Joe has plans for a future full-service public marina and commercial village adjacent to the community. St. Joe also recently announced plans to develop a health care campus just minutes from Latitude Margaritaville Watersound with Tallahassee Memorial Healthcare, Inc. and Florida State University College of Medicine (FSU). The proposed healthcare campus is planned for an 87-acre parcel near the intersection of State Highway 79 and Phillip Griffitts Sr. Parkway. In addition to a 100-bed inpatient facility, FSU intends to utilize the campus for research focused on successful aging and senior living technology.

The Latitude Margaritaville Watersound sales center is located at 9201 Highway 79, Panama City Beach, Florida. Open daily, Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.; Sunday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Central. For information, call 866-524-0144.

Not the DMV: Tax Collector Serves As an Independent Constitutional Officer

Bay Co Tax Collector Chuck PerdueThe Tax Collector’s Office is often referred to as the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles), but while it provides DMV services it is, in fact, not the DMV. The Tax Collector is an independent, constitutional officer elected by the citizens of the county in which they serve.

While Tax Collectors across the state serve as agents for the Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, the tax collector also provides services on behalf of our other state agencies and local taxing authorities.

The elected county office of Tax Collector in Florida was established in the 1885 State Constitution on the idea that property taxes were best collected and distributed at a local level. By being an elected office, it was determined the Tax Collector would be more responsible to the needs of the community from which he/she was elected.

Since that time, lawmakers have added to the duties of tax collectors through legislation and tax collectors themselves have lobbied to provide additional state services at the local level to better serve citizens.

In Bay County, Tax Collector Chuck Perdue’s Office currently provides motor vehicle and driver license services for the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, hunting and fishing license services for the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, birth certificate issuance for the Florida Department of Health, as well as, concealed weapon license application intake and renewal processing for the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.

Each county tax collector is responsible for managing their own budget, but the Florida Department of Revenue provides review and approval of the budget. The Tax Collector’s budget is funded by the fees and commissions of the services they provide as outlined in the Florida Constitution. Additionally, an independent firm audits the office each year to ensure proper financial management.

What does this mean to Bay County citizens? It means fiscal responsibility and customer service matter to Bay County Tax Collector Chuck Perdue. As an elected official, Mr. Perdue listens to the feedback from customers and puts in place new processes and technology in his office to better serve Bay County. It also means he is bound to follow the processes and procedures of the state agencies he serves to ensure the proper documentation and requirements are followed in carrying out transactions.

While the standards and guidelines for processing transactions cannot be waived by Mr. Perdue, the opportunity to hear directly from customers regarding matters does put him in a unique position to work for change on their behalf. Tax collectors are in a position to make lawmakers aware of how legislation impacts local citizens and some of the unintended consequences resulting from current laws.

Mr. Perdue currently serves as an officer of the Florida Tax Collector’s Association, which provides tax collectors across Florida with a collective voice to meet with state agency leadership to discuss the challenges they see in their offices and the frustrations of customers. Additionally, it allows them the opportunity to meet with legislators from all over the state to lobby for change in the areas impacting the services they provide.

The Florida Tax Collector’s Association is working to make doing business more convenient for citizens. Currently, the Tax Collector’s Association is supporting legislation to move the 1.5 million mobile home registration renewal dates to the birth date of the owner just as was done last year with heavy trucks. They are also piloting a program for mobile DL/ID card services for home bound and nursing home residents and implementing the ability to clear toll stops in tax collector offices.

A Pastor’s Ponderings: Finding Quiet

Pastor Jeff WadeBy Pastor Jeff Wade, The Rock of Panama City Beach

I noticed that things are a little quieter around here today than usual. I just returned from a trip “into town” for a couple of things, something I wouldn’t have dared to do just even a month ago. I’m one of those people who strongly dislikes traffic. For those who know me, to catch me crossing Hwy 79 headed towards Pier Park would be an anomaly. I’ve just simply learned to, as best I can, adjust my life to living in a tourist town and avoid the mix of crazy PCB traffic. I’m very thankful for the thousands upon thousands of people who visit our beach every summer. I truly am. I just don’t know why they all must get on the road at the same time I need to be somewhere, haha. C’mon, you know this is true. You need something at Target… but it’s Friday afternoon… and you know people are coming off the beach headed out to eat… You’ve been there, right?

Do I really need to go out THAT badly?!?!

But today, it’s closing in on the end of September and things seem quiet. Traffic was light, the lines at the gas pump today weren’t long. I had no trouble checking out at the store. Parking was easy. It was just quiet.

I love quiet.

One thing that I have noticed being in ministry and pastoring people is that one of the greatest problems we encounter in this world today is the lack of ability to either BE quiet, or to be in a place where it IS quiet. Life is busy. The pace is fast. The kids have to be here, and the kids have to be there. There is work to be done, yard work to do, groceries to get, and dinner to be cooked. We have ball games, tee times, tennis matches, and business meetings. There are school events, church events, sports events, and family activities. It seems like there is time for everything under the sun except a quiet moment. And living in a fast-moving tourist town makes finding that quiet moment even more difficult than normal. If I’m being honest, even the “quiet” season isn’t as quiet as it was even four years ago when God called my family here. So why is this important?

It’s simple for me. I have learned that the most important moments of my day are those quiet moments that I get to spend with my Bible open in the presence of God. I think it’s also why we are constantly faced with the spiritual battle of busyness and distraction. The intent is to keep us from being able to get still, to get quiet, to read our Bibles, to worship, and to pray. These things are incredibly important to those belonging to God. I want to challenge you to stop for just a moment and consider all the ways that you are distracted. I also want to ask the question, when is the last time you were just still and quiet and alone with God?

I’m so in love with God’s word as contained in the Holy Bible. When I think about being quiet and battling busyness and distraction, I can’t help but think of Psalm 46:10 which says, “He says, be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations; I will be exalted in the earth.”

As a believer and follower of Christ, I don’t see this as a suggestion or a recommendation. I see it as instruction for all those who love and follow Christ. Please stop for just a moment. Get somewhere you can be quiet and still. Know that he is God. And give him thanks for all the wonderful things he is doing in your life. It will change your entire outlook.

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwest Florida Receives $13,900 Grant from the Arby’s Foundation

Bbbsnwfl Arbys CheckThe Arby’s Foundation has committed $500,000 to support every community where Arby’s has a restaurant, including Northwest Florida. The Northwest Florida-area Arby’s team is proud to have selected Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwest Florida (BBBSNWFL) as a recipient of a $13,900 grant to support its mentoring programs from Pensacola to Panama City. In total, the Arby’s Foundation anticipates giving out nearly 200 local grants across the U.S.

“I have been with Big Brothers Big Sisters for 24 years and this partnership has impacted and changed many,” says BBBSNWFL President and CEO, Paula Shell. “From a simple roast beef sandwich to those famous curly fries, relationships are built in our local stores between our Bigs and Littles and between Arby’s team members and our Matches. It’s a connection that will last forever.”

The funds from the grant will be used to fund BBBSNWFL’s mentoring programs from Pensacola to Panama City. This includes extensive background screenings for volunteers (Bigs), volunteer training and orientation, and professional case management so that no match is left unsupported.

From 1990 to 2010, Arby’s was Big Brothers Big Sisters of America’s longest standing corporate partner, supporting the Big Brothers Big Sisters mission for over 20 years, and giving more than 30 million dollars to Big Brothers Big Sisters. In 2018 the partnership renewed, bringing together Big Brothers Big Sisters, Junior Achievement, and No Kid Hungry, giving them the ability to have greater impact on a child’s wellbeing by addressing youth leadership and career readiness in addition to childhood hunger.

Local Church Launches Recovery Support Group

When you look around our community, it’s unfortunately not difficult to wrap your mind around that statistic.

All meetings are based on Biblical teaching and are learning environments for people who are or have struggled with addiction. Anyone who is affected by addictive behavior is also welcome and encouraged to attend. Most Excellent Way is a setting where people will find the love and support that they need in order to effectively battle addiction with the power of God’s love.
