A Look at our 2024 Service Academy Day
On Saturday, my team and I hosted another successful Congressional Service Academy Day! My team, along with representatives from each of our United States Service Academies, met with students from across Florida’s 15th District who were interested in learning more about attending one of these prestigious institutions. Students also heard from some very special guests, including my father, General Moore, who selflessly served in the United States Air Force for many years.
I was pleased to meet so many bright students who are eager to serve our great nation, and I know that each of you has a very bright future ahead of you. Team Lee is proud to host these information sessions for local students and families to learn more about the Congressional Academy Nomination process. Be sure to keep an eye on my website for information and announcements for our next Service Academy Day.
Behind-the-Scenes of New Plant City Business
Last week, I had the pleasure of touring City Furniture’s brand new 150,000 square foot facility in Plant City. We have witnessed tremendous growth throughout our community over the last several years, and in fact, Plant City is expected to be one of the fastest-growing cities in Hillsborough County over the next several decades. I am grateful so many businesses are choosing to plant roots and call our community home, serving as major economic drivers and advancing our technological capabilities. Thank you, City Furniture, for the personalized tour of your impressive new facility, and I am excited for what the future holds for the businesses and families across Florida’s 15th District.
Celebrating 25 Years of Pepin Academies
Last week marked a quarter of a century since Pepin Academies opened its doors to the Tampa Bay community. Members of my team celebrated this remarkable achievement alongside Pepin Academy staff, teachers, and administration. To the wonderful educators and administrative staff who have been investing in our students’ lives for 25 years—thank you. Skillful educators like you are enriching the lives of our youth and paving the way for a bright future for our community, state, and nation.
Expanding Access to Healthcare in Pasco County
Advent Health is expanding to meet the needs of the Pasco County community. Last week, Advent Health broke ground on a new extension to their Wesley Chapel location. This expansion brings the total number of beds to 193 and allows for more operating rooms, endoscopy suites, pre- and post-procedure beds, and additional advanced imaging. As our community continues to develop, I am excited to see the changes that this growth will bring!
