PUBLISHER’S NOTE
Merry & Bright
T he most wonderful time of the year has arrived! Our tree went up on November 2nd this year - the longer the Christmas decorations, and all the holiday magic that comes with them, are in my house, the better! The holiday season for our family tends to start as early as September when Nutcracker ballet rehearsals begin. My own daughter performs each year, along with our Young Achiever this month, Miss Maggie Staples. Maggie’s cover photo with Dance Alive National Ballet dancer Stirling Kolb is one of my favorites. In my opinion, it’s one of the most beautiful Stroll Town of Tioga covers to date. Learn about Maggie and her journey as a ballet dancer in her article on page 14 and experience the magic of The Nutcracker at the UF Performing Arts Center December 19th - 21st. Also, this month, say hello to Hannah Harvin, meet Maggie’s dog, Cookie, and learn about The Independence Project and the
beautiful event hosted by Catherine and Jason West. Check out photos from Halloween 2025, too! Our Partner Spotlight story this month highlights Zari and Dr. Joshua Cooper of Not Your Average Therapy. Learn about how you can give the gift of wellness with their help this year - a gift that is anything but average! Our Tioga neighbor, Kim Miles, is spreading Holiday cheer through Porchette. If you’d like Kim to decorate your porch for the Holidays, reach out to her at (904) 624-0313. I hope you all can make it to the HOA’s Cart and Bike the Tioga Lights event on December 21st!
