Good morning, Clermont.

On Saturday, May 23, the Kiwanis Club of Clermont placed over 560 American flags at Oak Hill Cemetery to honor veterans and first responders, continuing a tradition begun in the late 1980s (coordinated by longtime volunteer Chuck Seaver).

The flags remain on display through May 30 at East Avenue.

Heavy rain flooded Lake Harris Hideaway in Tavares over the weekend, forcing the Maiden Voyage band to move indoors while crews plan to assess damage Tuesday (damage includes tables, fencing, and deck boards).

Memorial Day ceremonies took place across Central Florida on May 25 to honor those who lost their lives while defending the nation (local communities gathered to remember the sacrifices made).

Tuscanooga Baptist Church honored 13 graduates at a morning service, where Pastor Casey Ferguson presented each graduate with a new study Bible and offered prayers for future success (two graduates were absent).

Central Florida faced a summer storm pattern on Memorial Day with coastal rain and afternoon storms affecting beach plans — forecasters say a tropical moisture plume will bring heavy rains and possible flooding later this week.

The Florida Department of Health in Lake County is promoting National Water Safety Month to teach drowning prevention tips for safe swimming at local lakes, rivers, beaches and pools.

Community members should follow the guidelines and can call 352-253-6130 for more information.
