Commissioner Oakley Rotary and school visit
What the county recorded
This item is not from the published agenda
It is a stretch of the recording that this archive identified as a separate matter — a call to order, a recess, or something taken up that the agenda does not list. There is no official title, no staff recommendation and no disposition, because the county never recorded one. Everything below is inferred.

Okay. A few items. I think I have some pictures, so I guess I should start with
I'm afraid of ice. I'm definitely
gonna put that.
My hands were
sweating working on
that.
This is one where had Alex actually uh go out and visit with this, I was not able to go myself. Uh watch a d this is the drone. Oh, is that the drone doc? That's the drone and they have a uh I believe they have the video working on this.
Very cool.
Is this in Land O' Lakes? Yeah.
Let's sit uh Mini Pelock.
Oh, this is the one I made at P Lac.
Let's get my holiday, folks. Okay.
I guess that was it. Then we had a meeting down at uh the Rotary down in uh Zephyrhills. We met down in the library there in Zephyrhills and talked to the Noom Rotary. for Zephyrhills and uh had very good conversation. Had quite a few uh probably half a dozen or more, uh Billy Poe and some of the city officials were there, uh Steve Spinner was there with us so we talked about a lot of different things around Zephyrhills that affected both County and Zephyrhills.
Um next we have what we have here. Oh, this is where y yesterday I went out to um uh Cypress Creek Junior High School and when we left that from here yesterday, we left here they said there was a hundred kids signed up for me to speak to. When we got there he said, oh, there's 180 kids coming to this new speech. Um I don't think it was that exciting
but those kids were something else. They they were very exciting. And strange enough, don't mention Trump in the room because I did and they went nuts. They were so happy and cheerful. You you just can't I just never saw that reaction from twelve and thirteen year old kids.
Wow.
Uh in there. So but it it was a very nice event explained to them about the commissioners and and just the um way we do things in the county and what it takes to vote and that we only hire two people in and our actual employment number is thirty nine hundred and twelve people that work for the county which Mr. Gabbala takes care of all of those except for two. So uh but uh a
lot of good things we talked about with those those kids and they thoroughly enjoyed being there. So we talked to them from one thirty to about two thirty or quarter three and uh it was just kind of nonstop when we went in there. But very good day. So all right, that's all I have.
