- Veterans Day Appreciation: Gulliksen and Gillie
To eflect on Veterans Day, the FSGA would like to take a moment to express their gratitude to players, volunteers, and all who have served our country. The camaraderie and sportsmanship in golf are truly boundless, similar to the fellowship of those who have served and protected our great country. In honor of Veterans Day this year, they have spoken with two veterans about their years in the service and their involvement with the FSGA. Tyler Gulliksen | Flagler Beach | FSGA Player From a young age, Tyler Gulliksen dedicated himself to serving his country, a journey that began when he chose to attend the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. The tragic events of 9/11 piqued his desire to serve and contribute to the greater good of the United States and its people. After completing his studies, Gulliksen earned a spot in the prestigious Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) unit, which accepts only about 14 candidates each year. Gulliksen remarked “The EOD training stuff, you're diving, you're parachuting, your explosive ordnance training, and your combat skills training,” Looking back, he shared, “When I made it through training, I did 13 years in the Navy as an officer, and did multiple deployments from my time in the Middle East and North Africa. It was an awesome career, I loved it.” His dedication is mirrored by his wife, who served 25 years in the Marine Corps. Gulliksen was no stranger to the world of golf, having played on the Navy golf team for three of the four years he attended the Naval Academy. However, following his graduation from the Naval Academy, he took a long break from the sport due to the demanding training pipeline and his deployments. Gulliksen recalled, “After my last platoon commander tour and I was doing more of my staff tours, I got back into really playing competitive golf again.” When asked if the discipline he learned from the military transferred over to his success on the course, he stated “ I think it helps in everyday life. It helps you with it, especially golf. You basically learn to just be regimented and focused. And when you're going to be all in on something, it's like, you just kind of can dedicate your time and focus into it.” Gulliksen also noted that the relationships he formed in the FSGA developed in much the same way as those he built in the military, “My best friends in life, I've only really had in two places, the Naval Academy and my time when I was in the EOD community, and then golf. It's the closest thing where you make friends that you'll have forever.” To further his long-standing mission to give back to his country and community, Gulliksen recently took on the role of assistant coach for the Men’s Golf program at the University of North Florida. Gulliksen stated “You're mentoring these guys, you're helping them. And it's not just about golf. It's mainly about life. That's what I try to at least bring to it. UNF is a great program, and Scott Schroeder is a great coach. So it's really awesome just to be there and be around that kind of program.” In closing, and in very important fashion, Gulliksen declared, “Go Navy, Beat Army!” Doug Gillie | Palm Harbor | FSGA Tournament Volunteer Doug Gillie has been a dedicated volunteer with the FSGA since 2006, serving as a tournament chairman and rules official. Before his involvement with the FSGA, he was a Second Lieutenant in the United States Army and a combat helicopter pilot in Vietnam, where he had approximately 1,000 combat hours. Gillie recalls, “It was a very significant time in my life. You know, I saw the very best in men, and I saw the very worst in men.” He continued, “I went through my basic armored division training at Fort Knox in Kentucky. Then I went straight to flight school.” Gillie would spend three and a half years of his life committed to serving our country. After his military service, Gillie started his own business, dedicating the next 30 years to it before retiring in Florida. This transition opened the door to his involvement with the FSGA. He was finishing up a board assignment with another non-profit when he felt a pull toward something new. Golf was introduced to Gillie at a young age, “Golf had been a big part of my life when I was growing up, my mother, my father, my sisters…We played a lot of golf together, so I thought well, I’ll try the FSGA,” Doug reminisced “I figured it would give me an opportunity to give something back to the game of golf. I told Linda, my wife, I'll dedicate five years to this organization, and when I'm done there, I'll move on to something else. Well, that was 2006 and I'm still doing it.” His first assignment was a U.S. Open Qualifier at Innisbrook Resort, where Johnny Williams was the tournament chairman. Gillie was immediately struck by Williams’ passion for the rules of golf and his unwavering commitment to the FSGA. In that moment, he realized he wanted to deepen his involvement. Gillie reflects on his military experience as a time of teamwork and shared goals, similar to the camaraderie he feels while running golf tournaments. He noted that this sense of unity is a key aspect of both environments. Gillie stated “When you were in the military, you're primarily part of a team. It was a bunch of people working together for the same goal and very similar to what we do in the FSGA. I really enjoyed being a tournament chairman, being a part of a team, paying attention to detail, and working hard to put a good tournament together; and then just the satisfaction that you felt when things went right.” In his closing remarks Gillie shared “Both the military and FSGA have been significant and important parts of my life, I’ve met many, many great people. I mean, it's a great organization. I love the FSGA, a lot of great people, a lot of good experiences, and a lot of long-lasting relationships.” The ties between golf and military service run deep, and the FSGA would like to thank all veterans of the United States Armed Forces.

- Florida Grand Opera Opens the 2024/2025 Season with Mozart’s 'The Magic Flute'
Florida Grand Opera (FGO) announces the 2024/2025season with an original production of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s The Magic Flute ( Die Zauberflöte ), conceived and directed by acclaimed stage director Jeffrey Marc Buchman. This bold new interpretation of Mozart’s beloved opera, inspired by the world of fantasy role-playing games, will transport audiences to a fantastical realm where music, imagination, and adventure unite in a dazzling spectacle. An Epic Journey of Love, Enlightenment, and Mozart's Timeless Music—Reimagined Through the Lens of Fantasy Role-Playing Games A Fresh Take on a Timeless Classic Mozart’s The Magic Flute has long captivated audiences with its intricate narrative, blending whimsical fantasy with profound themes of love, enlightenment, and moral growth. In this new production, Buchman explores the opera through the eyes of adolescence, where the simple moral certainties of childhood give way to the complex realities of adulthood. Drawing inspiration from role-playing games, Buchman highlights the opera’s universal themes of resilience, camaraderie, and self-discovery in an immersive experience. “Role-playing games and opera both provide profound opportunities for personal exploration and communal experience,” says Buchman. “By blending the fantastical elements of both mediums, we’re able to reimagine The Magic Flute as a quest for enlightenment and emotional maturity, inviting audiences of all ages to rediscover this timeless tale through a new lens.” A Vision Rooted in South Florida As Florida’s oldest arts institution, Florida Grand Opera is proud to continue its mission of bringing opera to the community in fresh and meaningful ways. The FGO production of The Magic Flute is not just about entertainment; it is about providing healing and compassion through music. Conceived right here in South Florida, with sets and costumes crafted in Miami, this original FGO production showcases the talent and dedication of local creatives, including Director Jeffrey Marc Buchman, Costume Designer Camilla Haith, and the remarkable Laura León as the iconic Queen of the Night, all proud natives of the area. It is our responsibility to push the boundaries of storytelling and create experiences that resonate deeply with the South Florida community. "Bringing Mozart's The Magic Flute to life was not a random choice for us. This production speaks to themes of rebirth, enlightenment, and stepping into another state of awareness—ideals that resonate as deeply in the 21st century as they did in Mozart’s time," said Maria Todaro, General Director of Florida Grand Opera. “By leveraging modern technology, with spectacular sets, exquisite costumes, and an extraordinary team of artists, crew, and staff, we’ve created a production that not only honors the magic of the original but elevates it to match Florida Grand Opera’s vision of excellence. This is an extremely unique production, proudly made here in Miami, a city that embraces both tradition and innovation."

- Golden Crispy Latkes: Stovetop or Oven-Baked – Your Choice!
Make your Hanukkah celebration extra special with golden crispy latkes. You can make them on the stove or in the oven — your choice! Latkes, or crisp onion-scented potato pancakes, are traditionally eaten during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah, when it is customary to eat foods fried in oil. At any Hanukkah party, you’ll likely find an apron-clad Jewish mother standing at the stove frying and serving up these savory treats. This tradition can be fun, but it can also be messy and hectic with hot oil splattering all over the stove and children running underfoot. That’s why I was thrilled to discover that latkes can also be fried in the oven! This recipe offers the option of using either the traditional stovetop method or the oven method. The stovetop method is faster, but requires cooking the latkes in batches. The oven method takes longer, but allows all the latkes to be cooked at the same time and is less messy. The latkes are delicious either way. Serve them warm with sour cream and applesauce . WHAT YOU’LL NEED TO MAKE LATKES If using the oven method, you’ll need two heavy nonstick rimmed baking sheets . Be sure they are truly nonstick and in good shape, otherwise the latkes may stick. STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS Make the Batter Peel the potatoes, then coarsely grate them with the onion together using a food processor or by hand, using a box grater. Place the potato and onion mixture in a fine sieve over the sink or a large bowl and press down firmly with a wad of paper towels or a clean dishcloth to wring out excess moisture. Stir and repeat a few times with fresh paper towels until the liquid is mostly drained. Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the potato and onion mixture, salt, baking powder, and flour. Mix until evenly combined. Fry the Latkes: Stovetop Method In a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, heat about ¼ cup of oil. Once the oil is hot, drop mounds of batter into the hot pan. Flatten the mounds slightly with a spatula and reduce the heat to medium. Cook until the bottom of the latkes are golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until the second side is golden, another 4 to 5 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary. Drain on paper towels and repeat with the remaining batter. Fry the Latkes: Oven Method Preheat oven to 425°F and put 2 oven racks in the centermost positions. Fill two heavy nonstick rimmed baking sheets with ½ cup oil each. Place the pans in the oven for 10 minutes to heat the oil. Wearing oven mitts, very carefully remove the pans from the oven. Drop mounds of batter onto the baking sheets, spacing the latkes about 1½ inches apart. Using the back of a spoon, press down on the latkes to flatten just slightly. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bottoms are crisp and golden. Carefully remove the pans from oven. Flip the latkes (tongs are the best tool as a spatula may cause oil to splatter). Place the pans back in the oven and cook until the latkes are crisp and golden brown all over, about 10 minutes more. Drain the Latkes After cooking on the stovetop or in the oven, transfer the latkes to a baking sheet lined with paper towels to drain. Serve the latkes with sour cream and applesauce. Latkes (Stovetop & Oven Method) By Jennifer Segal Make your Hanukkah celebration extra special with golden crispy latkes. You can make them on the stove or in the oven — your choice! Servings: Makes 18 latkes Prep Time: 30 Minutes Cook Time: 30 Minutes Total Time: 1 Hour INGREDIENTS 2 pounds russet potatoes (2 to 3 potatoes) 1 medium yellow onion, peeled (about the size of a baseball) 2 large eggs 1½ teaspoons salt 2 teaspoons baking powder ¼ cup all-purpose flour Vegetable oil, for frying Sour cream and applesauce , for serving INSTRUCTIONS If using the oven method, preheat the oven to 425°F and set two oven racks in the centermost positions. Make the Batter: Peel the potatoes, then coarsely grate them with the onion together using a food processor fitted with the steel blade or by hand, using a box grater. Place the potato and onion mixture in a fine sieve over the sink or a large bowl and press down firmly with a wad of paper towels or a clean dishcloth to wring out excess moisture. Stir and repeat a few times with fresh paper towels until the liquid is mostly drained. Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Add the potato and onion mixture, salt, baking powder, and flour. Mix until evenly combined. Stovetop Method: In a large cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, heat about ¼ cup of oil. Once the oil is hot and shimmering, drop mounds of batter (about 3 tablespoons) into the hot pan (the batter should sizzle when you drop it in). Flatten the mounds slightly with a spatula. Reduce the heat to medium and cook until the bottom of the latkes are golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until the second side is golden, another 4 to 5 minutes, adjusting the heat as necessary. Transfer the latkes to a baking sheet lined with paper towels to drain. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil as necessary. Oven Method: Fill two heavy nonstick rimmed baking sheets with ½ cup oil each (see note). Place the pans in the oven for 10 minutes to heat the oil. Wearing oven mitts, very carefully remove the pans from the oven. Drop mounds of batter (about 3 tablespoons) onto the baking sheets, spacing the latkes about 1½ inches apart. Using the back of a spoon, press down on the latkes to flatten just slightly. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the bottoms are crisp and golden. Carefully remove the pans from oven and flip the latkes (tongs are the best tool as a spatula may cause oil to splatter). Place the pans back in the oven and cook until the latkes are crisp and golden brown all over, about 10 minutes more. Remove the pans from the oven and transfer the latkes to a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Serve the latkes warm with sour cream and applesauce. Note: If using the oven method, you'll need two heavy nonstick rimmed baking sheets . Be sure they are truly nonstick and in good shape, otherwise the latkes will stick. Make-Ahead/Freezer Friendly Instructions: Latkes are best served fresh from the skillet or oven, but they reheat well. Place them on a foil-lined baking sheet in a 375°F-oven for about 10 minutes, or until hot. They can also be frozen for up to three months; reheat directly from the freezer; allow a few extra minutes in the oven. Special thanks to Jennifer Segal , for the recipe and images.

- Geography Of Nostalgia and Memory: Panel Discussion
Join a thought-provoking panel with artists Luis Cruz Azaceta and Carlos Estévez and curators Janet Batet and Claudia Taboada as they explore memory and childhood through the lens of contemporary art. Batet and Taboada examine how memories shape cultural identity, bridging the personal and collective past to offer insights into heritage and technology’s role in preserving memories. Azaceta, renowned for his evocative work on exile and trauma, delves into how childhood memories of displacement influence his artistic language, reflecting on themes of survival and resilience. Estévez, inspired by metaphysics and surrealism, captures the essence of childhood wonder and curiosity, often using symbolic elements to evoke nostalgia and existential questioning. This discussion offers a unique glimpse into how these artists tap into memory and early experiences to explore universal themes of identity, resilience, and the human journey through art.
