Column: Farmers Open fixture: San Diego Police officer Ganley bounces from flowers to fugitives to fairways - The San Diego Union-Tribune

The snapshots range from facing down a 2x4-wielding man in Pacific Beach, rubbing elbows with Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones and providing security for Tiger Woods when he drilled a knee-buckling, playoff-forcing putt during his stirring win in the 2008 U.S. Open.Before Debbie Ganley joined the San Diego Police Department, the Long Island native worked as a florist who brightened the homes of director Steven Spielberg, actor Chevy Chase and the former CEO of Warner Brothers in the ritzy enclave known as The Hamptons.Nothing, though, prepared her for unexpected moments quite like a domestic disturbance call.“The suspect’s weapon was a frozen fish,” said Ganley, laughing. “It’s like, ‘OK, how do you impound a fish?’ ” Advertisement That unique mix of commitment to the job and magnetic personality has made Ganley, the officer in charge at the Famers Insurance Open, a player favorite and the inaugural winner of the event’s Hometown Hero Award.The person who has guarded and guided Woods, Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els, John Daly and so many more since 2002 has grown into more of a fixture than most who swing clubs each year at Torrey Pines.How does a florist end up with a... https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/sports/sports-columnists/story/2020-01-17/farmers-insurance-open-golf-san-diego-police-office-deborah-ganley-tiger-woods-phil-mickelson-john-daly

Bruce Rauner first moved to the mansion in 2014, he found peeling paint, over grown trees and shrubs, buckling walls and other problems including problems with the roof, but after a $15 million renovation was announced on July 18, 2016, by Illinois First Lady Diana Rauner, that paved the way or ‘planted the flower’ for Hart.“This was really an opportunity to kind of partner with Illinois flower farmers,” added Hart, who’s business offers flowers and desserts. “Another flower farmer Becky Newton [owner of Wren’s Gate Garden and Studio] out of Decatur kind of helped organize this event for us. Basically we took all of the products from the farmers who were willing to donate and everything came from a 100 mile area of Springfield which is relay awesome. We used things like Sunflowers, Vivias, a lot of different perennial cut flowers that we were able to harvest really a lot of great products that we were able to use that were locally grown.”A Facebook page called ‘Central Illinois Flower Farmers,’ blossomed into six designers and six flower farmers across central Illinois working hand-in-hand to volunteer their time to harvest, plant and design flowers for the new renovations at the Governors Mansion.“It’s totally volunteer. The farms donated the product [flowers] and then the designers donated their time to put it all together,” added Hart. “We [farmers accross central Illinois] knew that it would be great idea to give back to the state in general , but then also to have kind of an opportunity to promote local grown products. We wanted to get it out there that there is all of this great flowers that are growing here in Illinois that people can utilize.”The seed that was planted in 4-H cultivated into a dream for Heart who is loving every minute of volunteering her time with the renovations.“It means a ton, especially when you walk in... http://www.wjbc.com/2018/07/13/local-designer-shaping-governors-mansion-renovations/
