What happens when young women are surrounded by strong mentors, leadership opportunities, and people who believe in their potential? The world is better for it.

Last week, we celebrated the graduation of a group of young women from the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office Female Blazer Academy.

The program is in its fifth year, and with this year’s graduation, approximately 125 young women have completed it.

The evening was filled with inspiration and reflection as the graduates gathered at Global Grill to celebrate the journey they’ve shared over the past several weeks.

Through mentorship, leadership training, team-building activities, and hands-on experiences with female leaders in law enforcement, Sheriff Chip Simmons, and female community leaders, these young women gained confidence, resilience, and valuable life skills that will stay with them far beyond the academy.

Each graduate received a special engraved necklace generously provided by Bere' Jewelers, serving as a lasting reminder that she is a “STAR” and should always carry the academy’s core values with her: Strong, Trustworthy, Accountable, Resilient, and Successful.

The graduates also received Carhartt tool bags filled with tools provided by Hanto & Clarke General Contractors, a meaningful gift symbolizing that each young woman now has the tools to build a strong future and overcome challenges ahead.

Over the course of the academy, these young women demonstrated leadership, courage, growth, and determination, and we can’t wait to see the impact they will make in their schools, careers, and communities.

Special thanks to the outstanding sponsors and community partners who made this experience possible: Bere’ Jewelers, Hanto & Clarke General Contractors, Florida Blue, Loyalty Credit Union, and the Escambia County Sheriff Foundation .

At Hanto and Clarke General Contractors, we took off our hard hats so we could build something a little different.

Today, we focused on helping build a stronger community.

Our team traded in drawings for bags and boxes of snacks to support SnackStock 2026, hosted by PenAir Credit Union. 

This community-wide drive benefits patients and families at Ascension Sacred Heart Cancer Center in Pensacola, helping provide comfort during long treatment days and appointments.

We’re grateful to PenAir for leading efforts like this that remind us of what community partnership is all about.

Want to help? PenAir branches are collecting individually wrapped snacks throughout May.

Together, we can help reach the goal of 8,000 snacks for SnackStock 2026!

Happy Birthday, Dick Clarke 🎉

This week we are celebrating your birthday but also the steady force that you are behind everything Hanto and Clarke General Construction has become.

Your quiet strength and leadership have shaped this company in ways that will last for a long time.

You’ve mentored, you’ve set standards and you share with us the years of knowledge that you have accumulated.

We love carrying that forward alongside you not only in business but also family.

We’re grateful for you today and every day.

Happy Birthday!

🏈🏫BIG news for Pensacola, and it’s bigger than sports!

The University of West Florida is making the leap to Division I ! But what does that really mean for our community?

In a candid conversation, President Manny Diaz Jr. shares why this moment has been years in the making, and how it’s about far more than athletics.

We’re talking growth, national visibility, new opportunities for students, and a future that could reshape Northwest Florida.

“This is a game changer,” Diaz said. And after hearing the full story, you’ll understand why.

It’s one of our favorite times of the year.

When we hear the crack of the bat, catch the smell of Chef Travis’ ballpark snacks, and walk into the stadium full of fans ready to cheer on the Pensacola Blue Wahoos, it’s easy to feel like we’re living our best lives.

But this season feels a little more personal for us at Hanto and Clarke General Contractors.

We recently completed the brand-new batting cages for the team, built with precision, durability, and a whole lot of hometown love.

Knowing these players will step into a space we helped create all season long feels like a win before the first pitch is even thrown.

Here’s to a season full of big hits. Play ball, Pensacola! See you there! ⚾️
