East Pompano Civic Association Message

YaDa Chef's friends at the East Pompano Civic Association:

The East Pompano Civic Association

Volume 2, Issue 2 February 2010 www.eastpompanocivicassociation.com

By Dawne Richards

_{Welcome to the February 2010 edition of the East Pompano Civic Association newsletter! Although our first “Second Saturday Spruce-Up” on Atlantic Boulevard was rained out, we will be there on Saturday February 13, from 10 to noon. Community Service Hours are available for students. From here on in, we’ll be doing the cleanups on the second Saturday of each month, so that we can show our adopted child (Atlantic Boulevard) that we really do care! Hope to see you there. If you’ve got ideas, questions, or concerns, drop us a line, visit our website, or give us a call.}

As always, if you’d like to include news of an event in our newsletter, please let us know.

Don’t forget that the East Pompano Civic Association is now collecting dues! $5 a year - a bargain at twice the price!

As involved as ever! Ken can probably tell you that he has often worked harder, and longer, as a “retiree” than he thought was possible. Thanks to Ken and Mary Ann both!

Rafael Katz:

VERY busy (and happy!) to be on the East CRA Advisory Board. In fact, as I write this, I am at a shockingly festive meeting, where Rafael is absolutely gleeful, as he should be. Thanks for all that you do, Mr. Katz, for the community, our children, and the South Florida world at large.

Description

1. Ed Ball ran the Florida East Coast Railway for many years; his detailed prenuptial agreement spelled out - in addition to financial issues - lifestyle expectations, including a definition of "nagging."

2. Sylvester Love started work at a local famous (infamous?) restaurant as a dishwasher and ended up as a chef, feeding some very important people.

3. In 1934, Gene Hardy opened Put and Take, at 201 NE 1st Street, offering customers both gas and groceries. This was a novel idea at the time. The unusual name was a reminder that credit was not extended -- you put down your money and then could take what you wanted.

4. Emma Lou Olson was our mayor in 1979.

5. George Butler, one of our pioneer settlers, was appointed postmaster for the new settlement (and supposedly ran the post office from home, out of a cigar box).

6. William L. Kester arrived in 1923. While originally coming to this area for the fishing, he also helped form the town’s first Chamber of Commerce, opened the Farmers Bank of Pompano, and made generous charitable gifts, including land for a public library and for a park that would be named in his honor. In addition, much of today’s public beach was sold to Pompano by Mr. Kester at a discounted price.

7. In 1900, the first general store was opened by M.Z. Cavendish at NE First Street and Flagler Avenue.

8. Some of those who arrived in Pompano in the first decades of the 20th century were able to acquire property by bartering their labor for land. Tom Baker was one such person, who came to Pompano in 1908, and eventually secured title to land west of town (approximately in the 800 block of today's Martin Luther King Boulevard).

9. Local legend has it that the name for our city, “Pompano,” came about from a notation made on a survey map by Frank Sheen – who had apparently dined on the tasty fish and wanted to remember its name.

10. Following Pompano’s incorporation, John R. Mizell was elected to be its first mayor.

YaDa Chef Tip, Pie-Dough Spritzer

Anyone who makes pie dough has faced the problem of dough that is too dry and crumbly when it is time to roll it out. Knowing that mixing in more water can overwork the dough and make the crust tough, a solution is to use a spray bottle full of ice water to distribute just the right amount of water needed.
