History of Groundhog Day Groundhog Day originates from an ancient celebration of the midway point between the winter solstice and the spring equinox—the day right in the middle of astronomical winter. According to superstition, sunny skies that day signify a stormy and cold second half of winter while cloudy skies indicate the arrival of warm weather. The trail of Phil’s history leads back to Clymer H. Freas, city editor of the Punxsutawney Spirit newspaper. Inspired by a group of local groundhog hunters—whom he would dub the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club— Freas declared Phil as America’s ocial forecasting groundhog in 1887.

  • Highland Fairways Welcomes Cher Boney ~ Office Manager and Andres Bilbao ~ Maintenance
    Volume 34, Issue 2 Lakeland, Florida February 2021 Highland Fairways Welcomes Cher Boney ~ Office Manager and Andres Bilbao ~ Maintenance During the past few weeks, two new faces are in Highland Fairways. Hired as our office manager, Cher Boney, comes to us with a plethora of experience. She began her career as an Office Manager for a 55+ Condo Association in Inverness. Then she moved to Office Coordinator with Sun Communities at Ariana Villages and finally at Kings Manor in Lakeland. Due to her mom’s health, she took a two-year hiatus to become a full-time caregiver for her mother and granddaughter. When Cher was ready to return to full-time employment, Highland Fairways had a position open. Born and raised in Manassas, Virginia, Cher moved to Florida in 2000. She and Steve (Staley) live in Lakeland with their furry best friend Layla, a ten-and-a-half-year-old Boxer/Pit Bull mix. Cher’s two sons, Jordan and Brenden, live in Gainesville, Virginia. She has two stepchildren (children of love) Cody Staley and Ashtin Delapaz. Three amazing grandchildren – Khale, Kade, and (Princess) Jaxtyn round out the fami- ly. In addition to spending time with family and friends, Cher’s hobbies include boating, camping, photog- raphy, and collecting crystals and stones. When asked how she liked Highland Fairways, she replied, “I am enjoying being part of the HF team. I look forward to the time we can resume normal operations, and I can meet more residents.” Welcome, Cher! Another new face is Andres Bilbao, our new maintenance man.

  • Deedie Pearson
    Deedie Pearson Transcript of an Oral History Conducted by Anjuli Grantham at Kodiak, Alaska On June 12, 18, and 26, 2015 (With subsequent corrections and additions) Kodiak Historical Society About West Side Stories This oral history is part of the West Side Stories project of the Kodiak Historical Society. West Side Stories is a public humanities and art project that intended to document the history of the west side of Kodiak Island through oral history, photography, and art. The oral histories chart the personal stories of individuals with a longtime connection to the west side of Kodiak Island, defined for the scope of this project as the area buffeted by the Shelikof Strait that stretches from Kupreanof Strait south to the village of Karluk. The project endeavored to create historical primary source material for a region that lacks substantive documentation and engage west side individuals in the creation of that material. The original audio recording of this interview is available by contacting the Kodiak Historical Society. Additional associated content is available at the Kodiak Historical Society/ Baranov Museum, including photographs of interview subjects and west side places taken during the summer of 2015, archival collections related to the west side, and journals and art projects created by west side residents in 2015. This project is made possible due to the contributions of project partners and sponsors, including the Alaska Historical Society, Alaska Humanities Forum, Alaska State Council on the Arts, Kodiak Maritime Museum, Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge, Kodiak Public Broadcasting, Prince William Sound Regional Citizens Advisory Council, and Salmon Project.
