This month's Navaid has been decommissioned, but still exists as a DME location. It's located in the United States, and is named after the nearby lake, city and airline-served airport. It shared identifiers with that airport, despite not being co-located with it. It has a scary name.

There's heavy flight training activity in this area. It's south of a large city and its main airport.
It's near a resort that was built to host Spring Training for a Major League Baseball team, and that resort was named after a combination of that team's city, and a nearby town.
The VORTAC used to be named after that town, but its name and identifier was changed, as it's not co - located with the town's airport of the same name.
