Want to help?<br />
Anyone wishing to support the<br />
day-care center campaign can mail<br />
donations directly to:<br />
P.O. Box 848, Davidson, NC 28036.<br />
The center also has a Web site with<br />
more information and a secure link<br />
to allow online donations: www.ecrsa.org/davidsondaycare.<br />
struction program concentration and<br />
10 years’ teaching experience, O’Neil<br />
“brings a new level of professional training<br />
and development to the center,” officials<br />
said in a press release. O’Neil<br />
has taught in nursery and elementary<br />
schools in Wisconsin and High Point<br />
and worked in the state-funded More<br />
at Four Program.<br />
O’Neil’s credentials will go a long<br />
way to improving the center’s state rating,<br />
board member Eileen Keeley has<br />
said previously. The center’s rating has<br />
slipped from four to two stars.<br />
“I am overwhelmed by the response<br />
and support from the Lake Norman<br />
community,” Board Chairwoman<br />
Carol Higham said in the press release.<br />
“Thanks to this generosity, we<br />
are able to refocus and restructure.<br />
Courtenay’s enthusiasm, passion and<br />
experience will help revitalize the<br />
center.”<br />
The board also appointed a task force<br />
to suggest how a new business model<br />
will put the nonprofit center on sound<br />
financial footing. The center, founded<br />
40 years ago after the death of three<br />
children in a house fire, has depended<br />
for years on state reimbursements for a<br />
portion of families who couldn’t afford<br />
full tuition. In the recession, that state<br />
support has all but dried up.<br />
John Venzon, who has served as the<br />
center’s interim controller for the past<br />
30 days, will continue in that role and<br />
also lead the task force. Venzon has<br />
worked for two Fortune 50 companies,<br />
and his company, JNV Financials, now<br />
consults with charities and small businesses.<br />
Besides Venzon and O’Neil,<br />
other task force members are:<br />
• Lib McGregor Simmons, pastor<br />
of Davidson College Presbyterian<br />
Church, who oversees her church’s<br />
weekday preschool program.<br />
• Jeff Ready, product service communications<br />
and contracts compliance<br />
manager for Lowes Corp.<br />
• Lory Morrow, director of New<br />
Leader for New Schools, a nonprofit<br />
working with Charlotte-Mecklenburg<br />
Schools, and a member of the day-care<br />
board.<br />
• Fuji Lozada, an associate professor<br />
at Davidson College and parent of<br />
a Davidson-Cornelius Day Care alumnus.<br />
• Cindy Broadway, of Child Care Resources.<br />
Venzon thanked John Woods and Jeff<br />
Speakers and topics include:<br />
Tarte, the mayors of Davidson and Cornelius,<br />
for helping gain the support of<br />
churches in the fundraising campaign<br />
and assemble the task force.<br />
The churches that have made commitments<br />
of support are: Church of<br />
the Good Shepherd, Davidson College<br />
Presbyterian Church, Davidson United<br />
Methodist Church and St. Alban’s<br />
Episcopal Church, all in Davidson;<br />
