"While there's still nothing quite like the experience of attending a live performance, we're grateful for this technology that allows us to virtually keep the music playing and the performances happening."
A Manatee County Senate race saw a sudden shift in its lineup Wednesday when Democrat Amanda Linton announced she would withdraw from the contest. Her reason? The COVID-19 pandemic, or more notably the economic consequences of it, are forcing her family to move out of state.
“My husband was faced with no choice but to close our small business,” Linton wrote in an open letter. “For the past several years, he has built a commercial restaurant maintenance company; the statewide shut downs brought his workload to a screeching halt. Since then, he has taken a job out of state. We spent the majority of the summer separated and it is time for our family to reunite. The boys and I will be moving soon to join my husband in the Memphis, Tennessee area.”
Jim Boyd, the likely Republican nominee, said he was surprised by the news. “While I looked forward to the debate of issues on the campaign trail, my thoughts are with her and her family during this transition,” he said. “I wish them the very best.” He faces a Republican primary Tuesday against John ‘Mr.Manners’ Houman. The winner of that race advances to the general election.
The change has political consequences. Since Linton was the only Democrat running and had secured the nomination, state law allows party leaders to choose a replacement candidate. Tracy Pratt, Manatee Democratic Party chair, said several candidates have already expressed interest, and a new candidate will be announced within the next few days. “We are disappointed she had to resign her race, but like many other working Americans, Amanda Linton’s family has been greatly impacted by the challenges of this pandemic,” she said.
Pratt, who ran for state House two years ago, did not say if she would be one of the applicants. She did say she expects wide interest because Democrats feel the seat is winnable, more so than it seemed last summer when Linton jumped in the race.
The selection process will be similar to one used in 2018 in a south Sarasota Congressional district when Democrats needed to replace nominee April Freeman after her unexpected death. Then, candidates from across the state applied to run for a rare open Congress seat now held by Republican Rep. Greg Steube. An open state Senate seat may draw interest from outside the region as well.
At the same time, a new candidate starts fundraising from scratch; Linton’s account won’t transfer to a different candidate. Boyd as of July 31 had $91,979 in cash on hand and $468,831 available in an associated political committee, Building On Your Dreams.
And the district, represented now by Senate President Bill Galvano, remains right leaning. About 42% of registered voters ahead of the primary are Republicans, with 31% Democrats and another 27% independents or third-party voters.

In a unique effort to promote specialized businesses that were directly affected the last few months due to Covid-19 canceling an innumerable amount of events and weddings, Nicole Kaney of NK Productions Wedding Planning planned a styled shoot collaboration with a cascade of local vendors and fellow event professionals. Totally dialed in and revered throughout Sarasota and Boca Grande, Kaney and NK Lead Planner Korrin Kelly coordinated a creative crew of hospitality mavens to get together Tuesday, August 11 at Selby Gardens. The crew collectively gathered at the South lawn of Selby under a giant Banyan tree at sunset to set up and stage a picture-perfect Gulf Coast wedding.
Among them was The Wandering Whale, who provided a Pinterest-worthy statement bar full of botanicals and serving up glasses of rosé. Victoria Blooms curated the amazing floral arrangements, while a gorgeous candlelit chandelier was hung by Affairs In The Air, modern cocktail tables and chic outdoor couches came from Florida Furniture Rental. Trout Design created the paper goods and signage, and Michael's on East provided dining china and a dance floor to set the scene for the pretend wedding. Capturing the visuals was Cat Pennenga, local wedding photographer, and Kemari Lynn Films, a local videographer—both brought on for the staging of the shoot as a way for them too, to market their creative services and gain momentum back in hired business. NK Productions also brought in a "bride" to model a designer wedding dress from Truly Forever Bridal SRQ as well as an afterparty dress, designed by Sarasota designer Camilyn Beth. Beautifully-braided hair was done up by Sarasota bridal hairstylist Suzan Watson.
As large, condensed party gatherings are still held at bay at the moment as we continue to flatten the curve of coronavirus, you can still help support these businesses by thinking local anytime you need specialized equipment or services.

The Players Centre for Performing Arts is excited to announce, A Few of Our Favorite Things, a virtual goodbye to 90 Years in downtown Sarasota. The Players has been around since 1929, the same year the Iron Lung and the car radio were invented. That is 90 years of memories, friendships, and community arts education and entertainment. Such a historic and loving facility deserves a send-off like none other. This isn’t “goodbye,” it’s only “see you later.” They've decided to take A Few of Our Favorite Things, originally set to close their 91st Season, and use it as a virtual farewell to their home in downtown Sarasota. Have you performed on their stage? Were you a crew member backstage? Have you worked in the costume and/or scene shop? Ushered, designed, choreographed, or directed a show? Here’s how it works: Film yourself performing a song, dance, scene, monologue, you name it from one of your favorite Players memories. Do you simply want to tell us your favorite Players story? We want to hear it. All submissions must be between 1-3 minutes and filmed horizontally. Please make your background look presentable, make sure there’s light on your face and your surroundings are clean and not distracting. Submissions are due Sept. 1, 2020 to this Dropbox link: https://www.dropbox.com/request/3cj6heebdMQydJhiUMlq. This virtual farewell will air online Friday, Sept. 25 at 7:30pm. Tickets are $20 and available online.

Artist Series Concerts of Sarasota presents Siren Song, its first video production, featuring soprano Johanna Fincher, mezzo-soprano Robyn Rocklein and pianist Michael Stewart. The program, which was performed and filmed in the one-of-a-kind music room of the Fischer-Weisenborne residence, includes duets from the operas Lakmé and The Marriage of Figaro as well as popular tunes from The Sound of Music, The King and I, My Fair Lady, Little Women and more. Tickets are $15 and will be available at ArtistSeriesConcerts.org from August 21st through August 31st. Patrons will receive a link and password to the video that will be available for online viewing anytime during that time. The expression “direct to video” has taken on a whole new connotation for artists and arts organizations this season, with live performances everywhere being supplanted by video and live-streaming. “I think COVID-19 has made accidental techies out of everyone,” says Joseph Holt, director of artist programs for Artist Series Concerts. “And while there’s still nothing quite like the experience of attending a live performance, we’re grateful for this technology that allows us to virtually keep the music playing and the performances happening.”
The Personal Safety and Community Awareness (PSCA) team of the Child Protection Center, Inc. (CPC) recently presented at the Florida Network of Child Advocacy Centers’ 2020 Krimes Against Kids conference. This annual conference, comprised of over 50 workshops in a three day period, reaches professionals who work in the child welfare system across the country, including law enforcement, child protective service personnel, victim advocates, attorneys, therapists, counselors and social workers. PSCA’s presentation, Encouraging Safe Practices: An Informed Approach to Protecting Children Online, focused on the potential risks and misuse that accompany children’s use of the internet and highlighted the importance of discussing internet safety, encouraging safe practices, and empowering others to implement internet safety techniques into their lives. “I am so grateful for the opportunity to empower other professionals on keeping children safe on the internet,” said Ariane Beauchamp, one of the presenters from the PSCA team. “We have seen a sharp increase in screen time in correlation to this pandemic and children need our guidance and vigilance more than ever. The more education adults receive on the topic, the better we can assist our children.”

For the first time in Florida or Caribbean waters, restored massive corals were observed spawning—part of sexual reproduction that could result in the next generation of coral offspring—thanks to Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium's innovative efforts to restore Florida's Coral Reef. Over the past few nights, Mote coral scientists observed restored colonies of mountainous star coral (Orbicella faveolata) on a reef near Cook Island, hoping to capture the brief moment during the evening where the coral release their gametes (eggs and sperm) into the water column, a process known as spawning. On August 9th, to the delight of Mote scientists, a coral colony known to be gravid (containing gametes) released its gametes in an extraordinary display. Further cause for underwater celebration came on Aug. 10, when five more colonies spawned. This is the first time that restored massive corals have been documented to spawn on Florida’s Coral Reef. The documentation of the presence of gametes and of spawning in colonies of restored mountainous star coral is a first for massive corals in Florida and the Caribbean. This key species is listed as threatened under the U.S. Endangered Species Act, and is one of the most critical reef-builders on Florida’s Reef Tract, helping to form the backbone of the entire reef system.

Ultra-white sand beaches and magnificent sunsets have long defined our region, but just nine miles east of I-75 you’ll find an environment just as alluring, exotic and primal at the Myakka River State Park. For more than 20 years, Clyde Butcher has explored the deeper regions of Myakka and spent seasons experiencing its changes and its diverse ecosystems. Designated as a Florida Wild and Scenic River, the tannic waters flow through bottomland swamp and freshwater marsh spilling into lakes and sinkholes. Alligators, turtles and cottonmouths swim in the river. Herons, cranes and limpkins strut through its shallows, feeding in the muck. In the rainy season, the river rises and floods. In the dry months, the river shrinks and wildlife once again lines the banks of the Myakka River. Myakka River: A Florida Treasure features large-format, amazing photographs taken by world-renowned landscape photographer Clyde Butcher, known as the “Ansel Adams of Florida.” The special exhibition will remain open through September 6, 2020. Visiting is included in the price of admission.
