Caribbean Night and
Island Market
Colorful sights and island rhythms will resonate in Rockefeller Gardens when locals and visitors gather on
Saturday, August 6th, for the fifth annual Caribbean Night and Island Marketplace in Ormond Beach. It all
begins at 4 p.m. and admission is free.
The islands are calling you to this fun filled event. Caribbean Night offers continuous island music, Caribbean and other cuisine and a host of special activities.
A Caribbean Stilt Walker will join the festivities this year, and the kids will enjoy the limbo contests while
others play on the inflatables, slides or rockwall. Some may simply get their faces painted.
With the array of musical talent playing for five hours at the edge of the Halifax River, you don’t need to
travel to feel like you are in the islands. Patrick Sammy will provide steel drums and vocals, while Lionheart and Mixed Culture will contribute reggae music.
In the Island Marketplace, crafters and exhibitors will offer a variety of island inspired goods. Caribbean
style food will be available along with other vendors including the Ocean Deck, Greg’s Barbecue, Song
Kran, Art’s Lemonade, Holy Cow, Prestige Jerk Shop, and Don’s Foods.
Music, games, family fun, food and an island marketplace…all in picturesque Rockefeller Gardens. Bring
your camera and take your own photos at the Staycation Station!
Rockefeller Gardens is located across the street from The Casements, at 25 Riverside Drive on the southeast corner of the Granada Bridge. Parking is available at The Casements, Fortunato Park and Ormond
Memorial Art Museum. There will be some handicapped parking spaces at The Casements. For
additional information, please call (386) 676-3216.
SONC Summer
Camp Rocks!
This summer, the South Ormond Neighborhood Center (SONC) was a haven for fun! Children from
throughout the community participated in the Summer Camp Connection program offered through the
Department of Leisure Services. Throughout
the summer, the kids had a wide variety of
activities, learning, and a few field trips as
well to make their summer memorable.
Some of the fun activities in the program
were arts and crafts, crazy kickball, the Wii
Michael Jackson, and the Camp Champ
Challenge. All of the activities made for one
rocking summer of camp at the SONC!

Circus of the
Future Stars
Children’s Musical Theatre (CMT) performed “Circus of the Future Stars” at the Ormond Beach Performing Arts Center on Friday, July 29th. The cast of the show consisted of children who attended the CMT
Summer Theatre Camp program which was held at the Performing Arts Center from July 11th through
July 29th.
“Circus of the Future Stars” is an original CMT production which features
the performance skills that the children learned during camp, including
juggling, clowning, magic tricks, riding unicycles, acting, singing, and
dancing. The CMT Summer Theatre campers enjoyed a great time at
this year’s camp and are already looking forward to next year!
Camp T. Rec Ends
with a Bang
Camp T. Rec ended its final week of camp with a bang! The campers went to the pool and then enjoyed
a guest from Blue Springs on Tuesday. Diamond Jim visited on Wednesday with balloon art and his comedic antics. They played on the splash pad at South Ormond Neighborhood Center on Thursday, and
finished the week with the closing ceremony on Friday.
Parents, friends and family who attended were treated to a performance from the campers, as well as
light refreshments. The Department of Leisure Services greatly looks forward to providing another funfilled summer camp for the special needs community next year!

Final Week of Summer Camp
at Nova
The Department of Leisure Services Summer Connection Day Camp at Nova ended its final week on a
high note. The campers continued to enjoy activities such as dodge ball, soccer, basketball, flag football,
the game room, board games, movies, and arts and crafts during the beginning of the week.
On Thursday, Jumpin' Beans Party Rentals provided two water slide inflatables, making it a very “cool”
day for the kids! On Friday, the campers performed their skits, dances and songs for the rest of the campers, parents, siblings and friends. The campers ended their last session of fun by dancing. What a great
way to finish off the summer!
Finding Art in
Music
This week, youngsters registered in the “Art Explosion” camp at The Casements got a special treat. A
visitor, Chris Kastle, came to sing songs and tell stories of “Undersea” adventures. The budding artists
had several opportunities to create art inspired by the sea. The group enjoyed the performance and
learned that music is a creative art form, just like painting, drawing and sculpturing.
The final week of “Art Explosion!” will be entitled “Discovering the Art
in Music” where the youngsters will create their very own musical
instrument and join in a drum circle during next week’s Farmers’
Market. Spaces are still available for camp. Please call The Casements for more information (386) 676-3216.

Enviro Camp Ends
with a Splash
The final week of Enviro Camp ended with a big splash! The week was filled with several activities relating to
water including the Fishing Day with Dan Smith, our local fishing enthusiast.
Each year, Dan volunteers to teach the children the proper way to prepare their fishing poles, attach bait and
practice patience when fishing. Before we had all 30 poles into the water, the fish began biting! It was an exciting morning for all. A grand total of nine fish were caught, and all of them were released back into the Halifax
River, after everyone got a chance to look at and some children touched the slippery creatures.
The next big adventure was the day of kayaking and paddle boarding. The group enjoyed their chance to try
out both sports with the assistance of volunteers from Ormond Beach Kayak.
Along with all the water fun, the children made ice cream and enjoyed a day on a waterslide on the North Lawn
before camp ended. We enjoyed having the sounds of children’s laughter throughout the month of July and
look forward to next year’s Enviro Camp.
Summer Volleyball Clinic
A Summer Volleyball Clinic was held this week through the Athletics Division of the Leisure Services Department. Fifteen (15) girls participated in the 4-day clinic at the Nova gymnasium where they learned
specific skills and drills to sharpen and enhance their volleyball playing. It was a very successful week,
and we look forward to seeing many of the participants in the upcoming Fall Volleyball season!

Building Department
Changes
Recently, the City’s Building Department has made some changes to improve efficiency and
customer service.
 The Plans Examiner will hold public hours from 2:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. every day to assist the public and contractors with any questions they may have regarding plan submittal or plan review.
 A Building Inspector (“Inspector of the Day”) will be at the front counter from 2:30 p.m.
to 3:30 p.m. every day to issue permits for HVAC change outs, re-roofing, minor door
and window change outs, and small electrical and plumbing repairs/replacements over
the counter. These over the counter permits will be in addition to the permits that the
City already issues, such as fences, business fire inspections, water heater change
outs, irrigation/reuse connection (with Public Works approvals), and special events/
banners.
All permits submitted are required to be up to date with all licensing/registration requirements.
These requirements will not be waived to issue a permit over the counter.
These changes will offer the Mechanical Contractor an opportunity to get a permit for an emergency change out within 10 minutes and a roofing contractor can get a permit and start the job
the next day.
If you need additional information, please call the Building Department at 676-3233 or 6763234.
