LADY LAKE — The community is invited to strengthen their online safety skills during a free cybersecurity presentation, “Think Before You Click: Internet Browser Security Awareness,” on Wednesday, July 29, at 1 p.m. at the Lady Lake Library, 225 W. Guava St. in Room 219.

The presentation will be led by Howard Davis, the Town of Lady Lake’s IT cybersecurity expert, as part of the Town’s ongoing cybersecurity education series.

As more daily activities move online, internet users face an increasing number of scams and security threats. During this informative session, Davis will provide practical strategies to help attendees browse the web more safely and confidently. Topics will include password management, how to identify trusted and secure websites before entering personal information, and safe browsing practices that can help reduce the risk of phishing scams, malware, identity theft, and other online threats. Whether participants use the internet for banking, shopping, social media, or everyday communication, the presentation will offer easy-to-understand tips that can help protect personal information and improve online security.

The event is free and open to the public. No registration is required.

When children experience traumatic events, even the smallest act of comfort can make a big difference.

The Walmart Supercenter on Wedgewood Lane recently donated Bexley Boxes to the Lady Lake Police Department. These special comfort kits are filled with essentials such as blankets, stuffed animals, snacks, diapers, wipes, toys and other items to help care for children during some of the most difficult moments of their lives.

The Bexley Box program was inspired by the experience of a young child who witnessed the tragic loss of her father, leading to a statewide effort to ensure first responders have the resources needed to comfort children in crisis.

Thanks to Walmart’s partnership with the Bridegan Foundation, law enforcement agencies across Florida—including the Lady Lake Police Department—now have these valuable tools available when they are needed most.

Under Florida’s new “Super Speeder” law, drivers can face criminal penalties for extreme speeding. If you’re caught driving 50 mph or more over the posted speed limit, or 100 mph or more in a manner that endangers others, you could face more than a fine. Penalties may include a mandatory court appearance, up to 30 days in jail for a first offense, and even license suspension for repeat violations.

Suspect David Estevan Quiroga-Salazar learned the hard way on May 31, when Lady Lake Police arrested him for driving 95 mph in a 40-mph zone on County Road 466 at Cay Avenue. He was charged with reckless driving and issued a criminal citation for dangerous speed.

LADY LAKE – Mayor Ed Freeman has been recognized with the 2026 Home Rule Hero Award from the Florida League of Cities (FLC) for his advocacy on behalf of Florida’s municipalities during the 2026 Legislative Session.

Mayor Freeman received the award in May during a meeting of the Heartland League of Cities, where he currently serves as president.

The Home Rule Hero Award recognizes local government leaders who actively engage with state legislators and help ensure that the perspectives of Florida’s cities are considered during the legislative process. Recipients are selected by the FLC’s legislative team based on their responsiveness to legislative issues and their efforts to communicate local concerns to policymakers.

According to the Florida League of Cities, Home Rule Heroes play an important role in promoting local decision-making and protecting the ability of municipalities to address the unique needs of their communities.

The award honors elected and appointed officials from across Florida who demonstrate a commitment to effective advocacy and strong local government.
