DeLand's WWII Tugboat Tiger Comes Home to Lake Beresford After 82 Years Afloat
A 140-ton World War II Army tugboat named Tiger is finally resting less than 600 feet from the Lake Beresford shoreline where it was built in 1944, after volunteers towed the vessel to its new spot on Oct. 31. The homecoming caps a journey that took the tug across an ocean, through decades in private hands overseas, and into a muddy stretch of the St. Johns River before it finally returned to DeLand.

St. Alban's Church Wins Unanimous OK to Grow Oviedo School to 12th Grade
St. Alban's Church in Seminole County got the green light to grow its small private school all the way through 12th grade, with county commissioners voting unanimously on November 10 to approve the expansion. The decision clears the way for three additional portable classrooms on the church's 9.64-acre campus east of the intersection of Aloma Avenue and State Road 417, even as commissioners opted to keep a 250-student enrollment cap that one board member had pushed to eliminate.

Bartow football's regular-season tests prepare program for playoffs
The last time the Bartow Yellow Jackets won a first-round playoff game was on Nov. 10, 2023, when the local program defeated Winter Haven 7-0. That means Bartow (6-4) on Friday night, Nov. 13, at Oviedo High School is trying to win its first playoff game in three years when the Yellow Jackets take the field at 7:30 p.m. With the win, Bartow would have won four of six after playing local and state powerhouses in Lake Wales and Lakeland the last couple of weeks. Still, second-year Bartow head football coach Grady Morrell has had full confidence before the year even started that his Yellow Jackets would make a playoff run. "That was one of our goals in changing our culture. It's a step-by-step process. ... We are one play at a time type team. ... I tell our guys all the time that we are one or two plays away on being 7-3 or one or two plays away from not making the playoffs. ... (We) are thankful for having the opportunity, blessed to be having the opportunity, so we've been going at it full force these past two weeks," Morrell said.
