Business Highlights From The November South Lake Chamber of Commerce Breakfast | South Lake Tablet
Carey Baker was honored at the South Lake Chamber of Commerce Breakfast with the prestigious President’s Award in recognition of his many years of exemplary leadership and unwavering contributions to the community. Since serving as Property Appraiser, he has made significant strides in ensuring Lake County Residents are better informed about tax exemptions and property-related information. As Baker prepares to leave office in January 2025, his legacy of service and commitment to community enrichment will undoubtedly be remembered.
AdventHealth was in the spotlight during the breakfast. Kelley Moring, representing AdventHealth Minneola, served as the keynote speaker and Main Event Sponsor, providing details about the new hospital and its role in supporting the region’s growth.
Moring explained that as South Lake County continues to expand, AdventHealth is meeting the challenge with innovative facilities and services. The new state-of-the-art hospital in Minneola, spanning over 200,000 square feet, promises to deliver comprehensive, whole-health care. Among its many features are:
- Operating suites (five in total)
- Cardiac catheterization labs
- Critical care and emergency care
- Endoscopy services
- Full-service imaging
- Outpatient lab services
The facility is projected to create over 500 new jobs in the community, offering opportunities for individuals. The four-story hospital, located on Hancock Road near Florida’s Turnpike at the Minneola interchange, is expected to open in late 2025.
