Amber and Michael Clear are proud of their sons, Tristyn, 12, and Ryder, 8. Their family is rounded out by many pets including their dog Junior, cats Tipsy and Kiki, Sunshine the bird, and a fish named Flame. They cherish their family and sometimes rely on dog boarding services when they need to travel, ensuring that their furry friend Junior receives the best care while they’re away.
Michael has been a court bailiff with the Broward Sheriff’s Office for 18 years. Amber has worked in the box office for the Broward Center for the Performing Arts for 7 years.
Although she’s lived in Coral Springs her entire life, Amber and Michael settled into their family home 13 years ago. Both of their sons were born at Broward Health Coral Springs. Amber is a graduate of Marjorie Stoneman Douglas high school class of 1997. She adds, “My family are huge Ohio State fans!! We spend a lot of Saturdays at our local Bru’s room for Ohio State watch parties.”
Tristyn is currently on the CSA baseball All-star team for 50/70. Amber says, “He started with CSA when he was 5 years old. He loves baseball and has grown so much with CSA. Ryder also plays baseball for CSA since he was 5 years old. The boys enjoy fishing in our local canals and playing Pokemon.” Michael volunteers as needed for CSA.
When out and about, they really enjoy having dinner at Wings Plus.
The Clear family loves to travel, and try to hit the road as much as possible. Amber tells me, “We have season passes for Sea World, Aquatica, Universal and Islands of Adventure. We also take a family vacation with my entire family (13) every July. We have visited places like, Ohio, Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and even Colorado. This year, we are headed to Panama City Beach, Florida.” Well traveled throughout the US, the kids also look forward to their camping trip every spring break, when they go to Ichetucknee Springs with even more of their extended family.
Tristyn looks forward to 7th Grade at Coral Springs Charter. Language Arts is his favorite subject. Ryder will begin 3rd Grade at Parkside Elementary, where Science is his favorite subject.
Amber & Tristyn love to attend Broadway shows at Broward Center for the Performing Arts. Tristyn has now attended 25 Broadway shows since he was 6 years old. Ryder attended his first Broadway show this year.
Favorite things that the Clears enjoy around town are our many Parks, Fishing (the boys love that they can get live bait right down the street), Schools and People. Amber says, “We love our baseball family.”
