Dear FES Pinellas Chapter Members and Friends, I hope everybody is enjoying this pleasant spring weather. John Wayne called this weather “FALLSPRING” in the movie Shooter.
Last month, we had the state wide middle school MATHCOUNTS competition on March 19th and 20th in Walt Disney, Orlando. Over 200 students participated in both individual and school group categories. Myself and Chapter Vice President / MATHCOUNTS coordinator Jon Got-wald, PE, were there as the representatives for the Pinellas Chapter.
This month, we have two (2) Luncheon Meeting’s scheduled. On April 9th, the Program is Flor-ida Wildlife Corridor Expedition. Executive Director Mallory Lykes Dimmitt, will give a presenta-tion at the Pinellas County General Maintenance Division South in Largo. On April 13, we have scheduled a joint meeting with ASCE, ASHE, FES Tampa, and FES Pinellas. The Program is Gateway Express Project. Richard Moss, PE (FDOT, D7 Engineer) is the guest speaker. The meeting will take place at the Clarion Hotel on Fowler Avenue in Tampa.
Remember to sign your team up for our Annual Spring Golf Tournament scheduled for Friday, April 27th, at Eagles Golf Club (Odessa). The course is in great shape and will hopefully feature nice weather for the day. This Golf Tournament is our main fundraiser to help pay for scholar-ship for local high school seniors that will be studying engineering in college. We have varying levels of sponsorship’s for this fund raiser event. We need sponsors and volunteers that make these events such a hit. Company items for goody bags and donations for prizes are greatly appreciated.
Looking forward to see you at the above events and at the Pinellas Chapter Board Meeting on
April 17, at 7:30 AM at Village Inn on Gulf to Bay in Clearwater.
Sincerely,
~ F. Fred Dargahi, P.E. ~ President FES Pinellas Chapter

The FES Pinellas K-12 Committee is providing our support to the latest addition to Pinellas County Schools Magnet Program at Azalea Middle School. The 2014-15 school year is the first year of the Middle Grades Engineering Gateway to Technology program and has already shown signs of success with 159 students.
The Azalea Middle School Breakfast for Women Engineers (Sponsored by the FES) on Thursday March 19, 2015 had an extraordinary turnout of women, nearly 30, in
STEM fields, representing Pinellas County, City of Clearwater, City of Largo, Raytheon, GE Systems, and many more local companies. The Pinellas Chapter FES was well represented and a THANK YOU goes out to: Tara Kivett, PE, Alex Hebert, EI, Nan Bennett, PE, Kimberly Tracy, PE, and Kathleen Ruvarek, PE. Thank you for representing the FES! Since the event, there have been 14 confirmed new applicants and many more requesting the applications and more information.

Presenter Biography Mallory Lykes Dimmitt Executive Director, Florida Wildlife Corridor
Mallory Lykes Dimmitt is a seventh generation Floridian whose childhood was partly spent exploring the
lands and waters of central Florida. She pursued her passion for the outdoors by receiving her B.S. in Natural
Resources from the University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee. She was awarded a Doris Duke Conservation
Fellowship at Duke University’s Nicholas School of Environment, where she earned a Masters of Environmental
Management (MEM) in Environmental Economics and Policy, as well as a certificate in Non-profit Management.
Mallory specializes in large landscape conservation and the nexus of agriculture and conservation, freshwater
issues, and payments for ecosystem services. She is a currently a member of Class IX of the Wedgworth
Leadership Institute for Agriculture and Natural Resources.
Mallory is the Executive Director of the Florida Wildlife Corridor, and recently lead the 2015 Florida
Wildlife Corridor Expedition to bring visibility to the Corridor vision and the public-private partnerships
to conserve working lands. Previously she led The Nature Conservancy's Colorado Plateau Initiative from
Telluride, Colorado, assessing large-scale conservation opportunities in a four-state region of the West, and prior
to that directed the Southwest Colorado Project for the Conservancy's Colorado Chapter. Mallory has served as a
member of Telluride’s Town Council and has worked with local, regional, state, and federal agencies and
organizations on natural resource issues. Some of Mallory’s other projects include research in Sri Lanka for the
International Water Management Institute and strategic planning and organizational development with Legacy
Institute for Nature & Culture (LINC).
Florida Wildlife Corridor
The Florida Wildlife Corridor is a conservation advocacy organization focused on connecting, protecting and
restoring corridors of conserved lands and waters essential for the survival of Florida’s diverse wildlife. The
organization showcases the need to protect the missing links in the Corridor, preserve Florida’s waters, and
sustain working lands and rural economies from the Everglades to Georgia and Alabama. A dedicated statewide
Corridor will benefit wildlife, watersheds and people for generations to come.
The Florida Wildlife Corridor aims to protect and restore connected landscapes throughout the Florida
Peninsula and Panhandle to create a viable corridor from the Everglades to Georgia and west to Alabama. The
corridor addresses the fragmentation of natural landscapes and watersheds from the Everglades ecosystem north.
Contributing to the fragmentation problem is the disconnect between the perceptions of Floridians, and the real
need to keep natural systems connected. The Florida Wildlife Corridor is positioned to mend the perception gap
through an education and awareness campaign that demonstrates the connection between the landscapes and
watersheds. If we show Floridians the panthers, bears, native cultures, ranchlands and rivers—and how they are
all connected—then they can help us make the Florida Wildlife Corridor a reality.
The centerpiece of this strategy is the Florida Wildlife Corridor Expedition. The first expedition launched
January 17, 2012, and traversed the Everglades ecosystem into Big Cypress, over to the Everglades Agricultural
Area, back to the Okaloacoochee Slough, across the Caloosahatchee, over to Babcock Ranch, back along
Fisheating Creek toward Lake Okeechobee, up the Kissimmee River with excursions toward the Lake Wales
Ridge, up the Kissimmee Chain of Lakes, east around Orlando into Ocala National Forest, and north along the
O2O corridor (Ocala to Osceola) to Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge. The trek covered over 1,000 miles in
100 days.
The vision for the second Florida Wildlife Corridor Expedition is to connect natural lands and waters
throughout the northwest region of Florida, from the Green Swamp to the panhandle. Despite extensive
fragmentation of the landscape in recent decades, a statewide network of connected natural areas is still possible
