Ozzy Lusth Sandra Diaz-Twine Boston Rob Mariano Sarah Lacina Celebration Community 7 Development District CELEBRATION NEWS Ponds and aquatic weed control

Ponds are abundant in Celebration and provide stormwater management for the - August 2017 community. The ponds are part of an interconnected system that works to keep excess water off streets and yards.

The Celebration CDD maintains these stormwater ponds and canals through monthly inspections and treatment, including hand removal, chemicals, grass carp, and sometimes aeration.

Nutrients from fertilizer cause algae and other invasive plants to disrupt the ecological balance of a pond. If algal growth is kept under control or at a low level, the pond will remain clear and will not have many fish, since algae and other microscopic plants are at the bottom of the food chain in the aquatic world. Conversely, if algae are ram- pant, the pond will look green and may result in fish kills due to depleting the pond of dissolved oxygen that fish need for respiration.

WHAT RESIDENTS CAN DO TO HELP: • Do not fertilize the pond or lake or apply fertilizers closer than 20 feet from the shoreline • Do not blow lawn clippings or other plant material into the ponds or into the street where it can run into the drainage system

SOME PROBLEMS CAUSED BY AQUATIC WEEDS: • Impede water flow in drainage ditches, irrigation canals and culverts, causing water to back up • Detract from the aesthetic appeal of the ponds • Stunt or interfere with a balanced fish population • Cause fish to die due to the removal of too much oxygen from the water • Produce quiet water areas that are ideal for mosquito breeding • Give the water bad odors with certain kinds of algae

Please visit website www.CelebrationCDD.com for more information related to the aquatic maintenance activities of the Celebration CDD.

Community puts its best foot forward - August2017 with annual parade

The Celebration Community came together for the annual Independence Day parade, as residents marked the nation’s 241st birthday.

Under sunny and slightly humid skies, the Celebration Veterans led the line of march that included marching bands, civic groups, local businesses and residents showing off their creativity. The parade route was lined by very enthusiastic, not to mention patriotic, spectators. 30 CELEBRATION NEWS - August 2017

July 6 Meeting: The July meeting was held at the Celebration Community Presbyterian Church. We thank Gena McKercher for including us in her colorful presentation of the church’s recent tour of the holy sites in Israel. In addition to bringing to life the Old and New Testaments, the travelogue was a reminder of how Israelis live among hostile neighbors and do so in a productive and optimistic way. Israel is an ancient and modern treasure for the Judeo-Christian world, well deserving of our support. 40 CELEBRATION NEWS - August 2017 as we marched through town. cheers andapplausecould beheardLots of hotter, sowe totally enjoyed ourtime. there have years beenprevious quite abit resounding success. itwashot, Although July wasa 4thof parade Celebration Again, inthe thisyear ourparticipation may discretion usetheirown inthisarea.
