Among other dining and shopping options inside the Mount Dora Marketplace is Dark and Light Café, a charming coffee shop featuring rich organic brews paired with delectable healthy eats.

The faith-based eatery, which serves a variety of organic vegan and vegetarian dishes including empanadas, wraps, burgers, salads, smoothies and desserts, is a great spot for a quick lunch. From a vegan protein waffle to a quinoa black bean quesadilla, the menu is curated with homemade, fresh ingredients. There are also several gluten-free items and each dish is presented with vibrant, colorful ingredients that are as lively as the café’s roots.

Inspiration for the café came from Carlos Martino and Roxana Ballarino, a husband-and-wife team married for 20 years. They lived in Miami before moving to Mount Dora and prior to opening the café in 2022, the duo shared their health food recipes with family and friends.

For those who don’t know her story.. this is Wildwood Middle High Senior basketball player Trinidy Harris. She’s now an FHSAA Girls Basketball State Champion! 🥹👏🥇Trinidy has been to the state championship game three times in her career. She lost the previous two times as a sophomore and freshman. She vowed at the start of this year to win a state championship and here she is with a state championship medal around her neck. 💪

Trinidy knew this was her final high school basketball game she would ever play and she left it all on the floor. Since she picked up a basketball at the age of 8 playing pickup basketball in her neighborhood with her friends and at her local YMCA, her dream was to be a state champion.

She’s been a role model in our community, she optimizes what it means to be a hard worker and she’s accomplished just about every record in the record books.

But more than that Trinidy represents what can happen when you dream big, you believe, practice while no one is watching and you accomplish what you set out to do.

Once the final buzzer rang all the emotions of the season was let out with tears of joy. It was the end of a storied career and one we will remember for years to come, not just for Trinidy’s actions on the floor, but for her leadership off the floor.

To all her teammates, coaches, family members, this young lady is an amazing person. We are so happy for her and the entire Wildwood team and community. Congratulations!!!

Fourth-year Umatilla High School head baseball coach Tanner Clark has quickly established himself as a transformative figure in the world of high school athletics.

Clark, at just 27 years old, has already made history by achieving three straight winning seasons — something the school hadn’t accomplished in decades — and guiding the Bulldogs to their first district championship in 22 years.

A lifelong player and student of the game, Clark grew up in Tampa, where baseball was a family tradition. His father, Tracy Clark, was a high school baseball coach at Springstead High School.

“I’ve been around baseball since I was 5,” Clark said. “Watching my dad coach and being part of that environment inspired me to pursue it as a career.”

After playing two years at Umatilla High School and then transferring to Eustis High School, where he played under Coach David Lee, Clark graduated and continued his baseball career at Lake-Sumter State College and then the University of North Florida. It was there, during his senior year in 2021, that the seeds of his coaching career were planted.

This is Joshua Blake, former Disney entertainer who has brought the magic of imagination to Lake Square Mall in Leesburg. Joshua is an awesome person and he’s all about helping local business! 👨‍💼 💪

He does so by attracting people to the mall by creating fun, entertaining events and experiences for the entire family each month.

Joshua is a longtime entertainer and his family is too. His parents started a singing/dancing group called The New Dawn Singers Inc. in 1966 that toured all over the U.S. When he was young, he would copy all they did. In 1992, he started performing with them and quickly became the lead choreographer and costumer. Eventually Joshua would work for Disney and Universal for Halloween Horror Nights.

Attention - A brand new 4-Way Stop Sign will begin operation today in Leesburg at the intersection of Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd and Thomas Ave. 🛑✋🚗 This intersection has been notorious for accidents. This was necessary due to the new development nearby.

The change will mostly be on Thomas Ave, which previously didn’t have a stop sign. Motorists are encouraged to seek caution in the area and be prepared to stop on Thomas Ave for the new four way stop sign.

Let us know your thoughts. Do you think a stop sign will help alleviate issues at this intersection?
