This is an extremely unique travel trailerand not many out there from this model. Please be aware that this trailer is a restoration or remodel project. For transport we will recommend at least new tires . Clean FL title in hand. Our original intention was to remodel the unit ourselves and we had started . Our lack of time is forcing us to let it go. We have several local offer but we refuse to see this beauty to go to the scrap yard. We hope to find a new home and new owners that will bring it back to glory . We can help with the transportation for a fair price. We have started the restoration of the trailer by removing some of the wall paneling and insulation from some parts of the walls as it can be seen. * Most of the cabinetry is still there and in really good condition. * Front curved windows are there but the P.O. covered them with the aluminum sheet seen and not sure about why, since we couldn’t find any water leaks. Frame and hitch coupler is in great shape, looks rusty but integrally solid. Nothing that some POR15 won’t take care. The color matching toilet is still there, just not installed. * Sub-floor is pretty solid but few areas are soft an need replacement.. * No signs of water intrusion by the roof otherwise the wooden ceiling panels should be all stained and rotten. * Refrigerator and cook-top are missing in the kitchen. 1 Window is cracked and 1 opening on the side ( for a window AC ?)

Woman Arrested for “SQUATTING” in Poinciana Residence

PCSO Detectives Arrest Woman For “Squatting” in Poinciana Residence
|
|
|
On Wednesday, April 6, 2016, Polk County Sheriff’s detectives arrested on 40-year-old Monicia Antonia Brown for one count Unarmed Burglary (F-2) and one count Grand Theft (F-1) for illegally and fraudulently occupying a vacant residence in Poinciana.
According to the affidavit, on February 12, 2016, PCSO deputies responded to 400 Athabasca Court in Poinciana while conducting a petit theft investigation on the same street, and spoke with Brown. While speaking with her, deputies detected the odor of marijuana emanating from within the home. During a search of the home, deputies found multiple bags containing marijuana, marijuana seeds, and related paraphernalia, such as grinders, bongs, and burnt joints. Brown told deputies all of the drugs and paraphernalia was hers, and that she is a “spiritualist” and uses marijuana regularly. She was arrested for possession of marijuana and paraphernalia. When asked about who lived in the home, Brown replied she rents the home from someone and was paying her landlord via direct-deposit.
Due to inconsistencies in Brown’s statements to deputies about her occupation of the home, after she was released from jail on the marijuana charges (after posting bond), they responded back to the house to investigate further. Brown changed her story and told deputies she paid someone $7,000 cash to live in the home for seven months. She was unable to provide proof of payment or a valid lease, or contact information for the homeowner.
A search of the property appraiser’s website revealed the owner of the home is Augustin Pierre-Louis, of Jamaica, New York. Deputies called Mr. Pierre-Louis and met with him during his most recent visit to Florida. He told deputies nobody should be in the home, and that it is vacant. Deputies and Pierre-Louis responded to the home – nobody answered the door, and Mr. Pierre-Louis confirmed someone had changed the deadbolt lock. Deputies found a phone number for Brown, called her, and asked her to respond. When she arrived, she produced a fraudulent lease without a name, stating she could occupy the home from October 2015 until September 2016.
Pierre-Louis reiterated that the home is vacant and he has not given anyone permission to live in it. Brown was placed under arrest and booked into the Polk County Jail. She told deputies she receives $700/month in government assistance.
“You just can’t make this stuff up. Our deputies spoke with this suspect in an unrelated theft investigation, smelled marijuana, arrested her, and went back out because they had a gut feeling she wasn’t being honest about living in the home. We will continue to seek out and arrest those who are ‘squatting’ in vacant homes. If you have suspicions about vacant homes being illegally occupied, please contact law enforcement.” – Sheriff Grady Judd

Rockin On The River Raises $25,000 For Local Charities
LakeWales , FL – Camp Mack River Resort was close to reaching capacity during the 2nd annual Rockin’ on the River (ROTR) weekend. ROTR, Inc. is a non profit created to support local organizations who improve the lives for those in the autism spectrum. This year’s 3-day event included free entertainment by Coastal Acoustics Barefoot, Red Hot Rooster, Hunter Smith and Friends, Next Level Band, B. Haven, and Raisin’ Cain. Special recognition was given to the Nathan Baldwin Band and BlackWater for donating their time and musical talent for such a great cause! Through sponsorships, donations and community support, ROTR 2016 raised enough funds to donate almost $25,000 to the local nonprofits.
Our Children’s Academy (OCA), a special needs school in Lake Wales, received $15,000 as this year’s elite benefactor. OCA offers a unique educational program where educators, behavior specialists, and therapists work together to achieve the goals set for each individual child.
“What a blessing it is to be appreciated and supported by the community.”
Steve Whitaker, Executive Director for OCA, has already earmarked the donation for the new school being built. OCA plans to open the doors of the new facility in time for the first day of school in August.
Other benefactors include Central Florida Autism Institute, the Citrus Center Boys and Girls Club of Winter Haven, Sidestreet Art Beat, and the Cypress Gardens Water Ski Team.
ROTR Board Members also presented On the Edge Children’s Foundation with a donation during their first Adaptive Freedom Festival held in Winter Haven. On the Edge brings children and others together who would not typically be involved in water sports activities.
One additional recipient, Alliance for Independence, focuses soley on adults with autism. Board Member Tim Kiley accepted the blessing with a smile. “AFI appreciates the donation and all of the work that went into putting on the event at Camp Mack. AFI has been empowering adults with disabilities in Polk County for over 60 years. Without the help and support of our partners and friends in the community, it would not be possible to maintain the level of services our clients have come to expect. We look forward to continuing to serve the needs of the developmentally disabled in Polk County, and to working with our friends and partners to make life better in our community for all individuals who have special needs.”
Appreciation was given to the countless sponsors who made the weekend a huge success and plans for Rockin’ on the River 2017 are already underway! Stay tuned as the team behind Rockin’ continue to make a difference for so many uniquely challenged individuals throughout Polk County!
