"It's easy to whittle and to cut evenly. Sculpting with it is a reductive process rather than a modeling one, as in clay." In last Wednesday's steamy morning heat, the young sculptors worked diligently at their reductive "I'm making an owl. It started out to be cat's face, but now it's an owl," explained Anna Pierot. "This is a real cat's face," Eva Scott insisted. Next to her, April and Angela Argento were also creating faces in their 6-inch x 6-inch block of pale tan Durostone. Melissa and Melanie Sullivan concen- trated on faces, too, but Lydia Boone opted for a palm tree in three-quarter relief. Samantha Kennedy worked on a big cat with a stern expression, while Tara Nachtsheim created Pooh Bear, her favorite character. Her sister Hallie chose to execute a minimalist face. Tow-headed Justin Gulnac explained that he was making "a head and face." Ben Shanley focused in- tense concentration on his head sculpture. "Later, we'll paint the pieces," Bronsted promised her class. Some finished pieces are already on display. The colors are realistic and each piece is protected from sliding with felt pasted on the bottom. Bronsted, a private art teacher with classes throughout Southwest Florida, is nearing the end of the Children's Art Workshop, which is sponsored by BIG Arts every Wednesday morning. Ann Park also helps with the workshop, with Nancy Sullivan as a back-up helper. Durostone looks like fun. And, the pieces have a cer- tain primitive charm. But, they are for indoor exhibit only. Their outdoor life would be short. The pleasure of creating them, however, will last a long time for the young artists, ^ Photos by Pete Slosson

Tree House settles into Olde Sanibel

By Ann Travelstead Islander staff writer After a move that took a solid, muscle-straining month, Sheila and Arthur Tardosky have finally mov- ed Tree House Gallery to its new home in Olde Sanibel. For 31 years, Tree House nestled in the trees on Cap- tiva. The Tardoskys owned the multi-faceted gallery and gift shop for 11 years, before the threat of more floods caused by more paving on Captiva led them to move. The Tree House building was sold to Robert Rauschenberg and will permanently revert to residen- tial use, according to regulations. Now, every tiny figurine and massive carved frog or turtle, every piece of delicate scrimshaw or primitive sculpture, every perky stuffed animal and evil ar- ticulated snake, every greeting card and earring, every painting, watercolor and drawing — every single, solitary fascinating thing occupies a new home. An ornate scarlet Costa Rican bar cart welcomes visitors as Sheila Tardosky and Gail Oleck put the finishing touches on Tree House and try to remember where the vast and comprehensive inventory has been stashed. Tree House Gallery and Gift Shop, an interesting ad- dition to the charming shops in Olde Sanibel, at the in- tersection of Tarpon Bay Road and Periwinkle Way, is Photo by PETE SI open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. until 5:30 A sampling of the items for sale at the Working carefully, a sculptor chips away at hei p.m. Tree House Gallery cr«atlon.

Counting those, the group found that 61 turtles had hatched, 38 eggs were infertile, and four Lounge & Raw Bar eggs contained turtle embryos that had stopped developing before becoming functioning turtles. Also among the egg shells was one healthy hatchling. "Since you are already late, you won't mind being a little later," Haverfield told the little creature with the frantically flapping flippers.

The rain stopped, the top of the jeep was taken back down and the group proceeded down the beach. The rain started again but lighter this time. The site of another nest due for hatching was ex- amined by Haverfield. As she stepped lightly where the nest should be, a round hole suddenly plopped open MARSHALL H. HOLTZ JR.

The Caretta beach inspections started on May 5 and will continue until the last nest has hatched, which would normally be in late October, although last year it hatched on Nov. 7. The number of nests has been stable over the last few years. However, this year there are very few on the east end of Sanibel and Haverfield believes the new beach on Captiva will attract more turtles there. The total number of nests last year was 132. Each nest usually has between 110 and 130 eggs. So, the total number of hatchlings last year on Sanibel would have been almost 16,000.

By Rick Fowler Islander staff writer The Post-Season Tournament of the Sanibel Men's Slowpitch Softball League "went into extra innings" as the Arnie's Deli Dogs slugged it out with the TMS Gamecocks. The two-day, double-elimination tournament began Friday, minus the regular season league title winner Island Heat. Seven members of the Heat were scheduled to compete in a state-wide tournament, thus precluding their local participation. In Friday night's first round action, TMS defeated The Timber's, 15-5; 96 K Rock fell to Wil's Landing, 15-2; TMS handled Bonker's, 12-1 and Arnie's came off the bye to defeat Wil's, 12-1. On Saturday, Timber's and Bonker's moved up in the loser's division by virtue of forfeits by K Rock and Wil's. Bonker's took the division with a 6-4 win over Timber's. Arnie's defeated TMS, 9-3, in the winners bracket to set up a TMS vs. Bonker's rematch. Bonker's offered more of a contest this time around but still fell to the Gamecocks by a score of 6-3. That left undefeated Arnie's and TMS to battle it out for top tournament honors. Because it was a double-elimination tournament, TMS was faced with having to defeat Arnie's twice in- order to claim the title.

TMS TMS appeared to be looking ahead, as they stumbl- As the Sanibel Recreation Center's Men's Slowpitch needed the victory to move into a tie with the league ed to an 8-6 victory in a close contest with a gamely Wil's team. Wil's, which was 5-6 entering into the con- test, had already clinched the fourth place spot in the final league standings and was playing hard for a .500 season finish. Other scores from Tuesday night included Arnie's Deli with a 6-5 victory in a near upset finish by The Timbers, and 96 K Rock finishing strong with a 13-2 tally against Bonker's. League standings following the final night of regular season play were Island Heat 10-2, TMS 10-2, Arnie's Deli 8-4, Wil's Landing 5-7, The Timber's 4-8, Bonker's 2-10, and 96 K Rock 2-10. On Thursday, the Heat and TMS met for a play-off game to determine the league title. The outcome prov- ed to be a repeat of the previous week's regularly scheduled contest of the league leaders as the Heat established dominance in the first inning by jumping out to an 8-0 lead. The Heat never looked back, finishing in five innings, 18-5, to soundly claim the league title spot. TMS attempted to silence the Heat by walking Cur- tis Nave and denying him an opportunity to repeat his two-home-run, six-RBI performance of their last meeting. TMS's Rick Grant also attempted to inspire the team's offense with his pair of homers, but it was not enough. Tom Rizzo of the Heat hit 3 for 4 to lead his team's offense, which continued to hit line shots and find the creases. The final league standings are Island Heat finishing in first place, TMS with the second place finish, Ar- Island Heat, the 1989 men's champions. nie's Deli in third, and Wil's Landing holding fourth. Recreation Shaping up for summer Sanibel Recreation Center expands its aerobics program By Rick Fowler Islander staff writer If the demand for aerobics is any indication, more and more islanders are shaping up. The Sanibel Recreation Center's aerobics program is now being of- fered daily, Monday through Saturday, and on Mon- day, Wednesday and Friday evenings. The aerobic sessions are high intensity - low impact for those in the know. For the neophytes, what you need to know is that you can, and in fact are encourag- ed to, work at your own pace.

Hasty possesses an instructional certification from the Aerobic Fitness Association of America (A.F.A.A.), and has nine years of instructional ex- perience, including having owned and operated an ex- ercise studio.

State officials will vote this Thursday on whether to require turtle excluder devices (TEDs) on shrimper nets in Florida waters. The vote for a state law by the Florida Marine Fisheries Commission has been scheduled as a result of the confused wavering by U.S. Commerce Secretary Robert Mosbacher on enforcement of the federal law requiring TEDs. That law was originally supposed to go into effect on May 1. However, Mosbacher delayed its enforcement until July 1. Then, about two weeks ago, enforcement was again suspended. Several days after that, on July 20, en- forcement was resumed. But then on July 24, Mosbacher again suspended enforcement. TEDs allow endangered sea turtles to escape from shrimp nets. Shrimpers opposed to using the devices blocked Texas ship channels and threatened violence "ie weekend before the most recent suspension of enforcement.
