Now, that's a lot of moola

It took the Phil Galvano Golf Classic 13 years to earn $1 million for local school grants.

Not a bad contribution, it fact it's pretty outstanding. But consider this: today's 14th annual Galvano Classic hauled in $200,000. That's a lot of bread, dough, moola, bucks.

Rep. Bill Galvano, one of the true leaders in the Florida Legislature this year, was happy to be back in town at the tourney that carries his father's name.

And he was particularly happy to be back with his family. His son, William, recently won the 4-H Tropicana speaking competition, the same contest that Rep. Galvano won a few decades ago.

"It made me tear up," Galvano said, speaking of how proud William had made him.
