    Fifty years ago, they were screwed-up kids sent to the Florida School for Boys to be straightened out. But now they are screwed-up men, scarred by the whippings they endured. Read the story and see a video and portrait gallery.

Northdale should have coverage

Northdale should have coverage

As president of the Northdale Civic Association, I must tell you that I am very disappointed that you have reporters covering all areas of northwest Hillsborough County except Northdale. Northdale is a very active and civic-minded community, and yet you see fit not to give us a voice in the events of our area.

Jeff Solochek was very responsive to our area and would always call to see if something of import was occurring in our neighborhood, whether entertainment, such as the annual Family Fun Festival; or political, such as our "Meet The Candidates" nights.

Please tell me that you are not lumping us in with Carrollwood! We are our own community and would like to be represented as such.

Nancy Stearns, Northdale

Editor's note: We have assigned reporter Amber Mobley the primary responsibility for Northdale. Readers also can direct story tips and announcements to Marlene Sokol, or northtampa@sptimes.com.
