All People’s Day Diversity

Festival March 19 at Delray

Beach’s Pompey Park

Event Celebrates All People, All Cultures, All Traditions

With Art, Music, and Dance

COPYRIGHTED

For more than a decade, the All People’s Day Diversity Festival

has brought people from all backgrounds to Delray

Beach’s Pompey Park for a day of celebration that includes art,

music, dance and outstanding activities for children and adults.

This year, as the free indoor festival returns on Saturday,

March 19 following an absence due to the COVID 19 pandemic,

it arrives with an added importance.

“We need All People’s Day today more than ever,” says Susan

Berkowitz-Schwartz, the founder and president of All

People’s Day (APD). “Because of the situation in the world

right now, many people are against one another instead of being

for each other.”

Bringing people together to share cultures has been the goal

of the festival, which Berkowitz-Schwartz ran in New Jersey for

35 years before bringing it to Delray Beach.

“In order to make the world a better place, we have to find

out about people who are different from us,” she said. “The

13th Annual All People’s Day Diversity Festival will be a day

of fun but it is also an opportunity to connect with people of

diverse cultures. All People’s Day is really about learning from

one another through the arts.”

Presented by All People’s Day Inc., the Lake Worth Interfaith

Network and the Delray Beach Parks and Recreation Department,

the festival features free admission, free arts and crafts

and even free food from several cultural restaurants.

COPYRIGHTED

The Delray Divas dance group will return to the All

People’s Day Diversity FESTIVal at Pompey Park on March 19

The main event runs from 11am to 3pm. It features as many as

15 different local performing groups, among which are the Delray

Divas, Carol Garrett’s Jewish Soul, Chinese Performing Arts

and Anthony Bacchus with the Milagro Center Kids Drum Circle.

All People’s Day has three traditions – the Craft Dough People,

the Symbol, and Origami Peace Cranes.

Prior to the main event, from 9:30 to 11am, Berkowitz-

Schwartz will host a free workshop for up to 30 children from

4 to 11 years old, where they will learn to create Craft Dough

People comprised of different skin colors. Pre-registration is

When Delray Beach Kiwanis Club learned that a mother

and her five children had to flee their home after a fire in

a nearby apartment, members sprang into action.

Little did the Kiwanians know at the time that they would

also be helping a second Delray Beach family pay forward a

good deed done by club members decades earlier.

The club, which supports organizations throughout the community

– with an emphasis on those benefiting children and

families – discovered that a couple of the families displaced

by the blaze had children attending Orchard View Elementary

School, which the club had “adopted” years before.

Working with the school’s principal – fellow Kiwanian Danielle

Garcia – members withdrew $300 from the club treasury

to buy clothing and other items for the family members who

were temporarily staying with relatives.

It was when the Jenkins family was able to move back into

its apartment that club members Ezra Krieg and Peggy Kellelocals

all made from the same materials and therefore we should all

be treated with equal respect,” she said.

The Symbol activity takes the form of a family mural. The

young participants draw representations of their own families

connecting with one another. “We believe we’re all one family,”

Berkowitz-Schwartz said.

Origami Peace Cranes will be made throughout the day representing

the poignant tale of a young Japanese girl’s wish for

peace among nations. According to legend if 1,000 cranes are

folded a wish will be granted. In addition there will be a onehour

presentation by the Morikami Museum about the cranes.

“If we care about people we want peace in the world,” Berkowitz-Schwartz

says.

The festival also includes more than 50 interactive merchandise

booths featuring a diverse mix of things to see and do. Kids

will find additional free arts projects such as puppet making

with a stage to perform and face painting. Teens and adults enjoy

hands on issue-based activities including interactive word

games by nonprofits, a health fair, an Issues Mural, and an opportunity

to take a selfie with life-size diversity figures. Also present

will be items for sale such as artwork, books, T-shirts, and more.

Sponsors of the festival include Lake Worth Interfaith Network,

Esterman Eye Institute, Haitian American Culture Day,

Greenberg Elder Law Services, Ocean Breeze Prosthodontics,

Heal the Planet, Humana, A&H Automotive and WiseTribe.

her reached out to the community through

Facebook and email asking for donations of

clothing, furniture, and furnishings.

“The response was amazing,” Kelleher

said. the club member who helped coordinate

the effort. “I received at least 50 calls

and emails from people wanting to know

how they could help.”

While all of the contribution were well

received and greatly appreciated, it was the

donation from Laurie Zuniga and her husband

Frank that really stood out.

The Zunigas were in the process of clearing

out their daughter Jackie’s nearby apartment

following her death from COVID related

pneumonia a few weeks earlier, when Laurie

saw the Kiwanis’ posting on Facebook.

It was while she was on the phone with

Kelleher that Zuniga discovered the same Kiwanis

group had helped the struggling family

in the early 1990 by paying their electric

bill for several months while Jackie was recovering

from a kidney transplant that had

drained the family’s savings.

“I just couldn’t believe it,” Zuniga said.

“I thought what a blessing and the timing

couldn’t have been more perfect. Now another

family could have Jackie’s furniture. I

was thrilled because we could pay it forward

through the same organization that helped

us out years ago.”

Early in February a small army of volunteers

led by Kiwanians loaded many of the

items from the apartment onto a trailer provided

by Exhilaride Golf Cart Rentals and delivered

them to Elethia Jenkins and her family.

“My husband and I are so happy that

something beautiful came from such devastating

tragedies,” Laurie Zuniga said. “We

feel heaven definitely played a part in the

bringing together all those involved. Just

like the person who so selflessly donated

their kidney to help our daughter, it is so

comforting to know that, through Jackie,

we could be of help to another family. We

wish them many blessings.”

Other donations from the community included

everything from a television set and

a rug to a full living room set and small appliances.

The club also received gift cards

for the family.

“We are so grateful to everyone who

helped with donation and who made it

possible for the Jenkins family to be able to

move back home,” Kelleher said.

The Kiwanis club is still accepting donations.

POSH PROPERTIES

BY Jeremy Charles

Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Jeremy Charles, an adopted

member of the Floridian family. I relocated to Palm Beach from

a small Caribbean Island a few miles off the coast of Florida

back in 2001. As a kid I can recall involuntarily waking up one

Saturday morning at 7am to start my workday because my 3 older

biological sisters refused to babysit. To my surprise it was a blessing

in disguise. On our way to work my mom drove through this siren and

tropical road, (A1A), to get to the Residence Inn by Marriot on the

corner of Atlantic Ave and Seabreeze Ave. I remember escaping my

duties to explore the Ave and admire Lady Atlantic. Like an attractive

woman with many admirers, I have been in love with the city of Delray

Beach since then. Choosing a career in Real estate should derive

from the same unrelenting passion instead of the “love of looking

at beautiful houses and being good with people.” One must have

grit to persist during improbable outcomes, an insatiable desire for

development of their craft, and a genuine interest in getting to know

people with the objective of matching them with the right home.

locals only | delray under $50

By Darien Davies

Delray Under $50

Most Fun Small Town, Most Crazy Small Town, Most Small Town that Feels

Like a Big Town. Delray has it all. With a bustling downtown, Pineapple

Grove area, and little nooks and crannies in between, there’s more

to do in Delray now than ever, with events and happenings

spanning from daytime to nighttime. While it can

seem expensive at times, there’s a great

opportunity to enjoy all the City has to offer

without breaking the bank. Here’s what you can

do in Delray Beach in March for $50 or less.

Break out the green or you’re getting pinched! That’s right,

folks, it’s time once again for the meanest, greenest St. Patrick’s

Day party this side of the rainbow, and everyone’s invited

to paint the town green. Even though St. Patrick’s Day falls

on Thursday, March 17 this year, the party is getting started

the Saturday prior (you know, so we can all keep our jobs

on Friday). The City of Delray Beach’s

St. Patrick’s Day Parade and Festival

has proudly enjoyed a

52-year history and provides

fun-filled entertainment for all

ages and backgrounds. The parade

features more than 70 entries

comprised of floats, schools,

businesses, community groups,

non-profits, elected officials, United

States Veterans, fire engines, motorcycles,

Pipes and Drums, marching

bands, first responders, Irish heritage societies

and other ethnic groups. This first

responder-themed St. Patrick’s Day Parade

is truly Florida’s premiere hometown parade!

The parade is held from 12 to 2pm

beginning at the Intracoastal Waterway

and heading west on Atlantic Avenue to

Northwest Fifth Avenue. After the parade,

head to the festival, located at Old School

Square and held from 1 to 7pm. Both the

parade and festival are free, family-friendly

events that draw in crowds from not only Delray

Beach and its neighboring cities, but from

around the world. You can expect to enjoy live

music, food trucks, food booths, vendors, merchandise,

games, Pipes and Drums and so much

more! Visit www.stpatsdelray.com or call (561)

243-7452 for more information.


After 13 years of being in the know, you’d

think you’d have a front-row seat, right?

Ha! That’s not the hustling and bustling

Savor the Avenue way. But, have no fear, a good

idea is near. March is International Ideas Month

and even though the delicious Savor the Avenue

event is out of our DU50 budget and reach (it

has been sold out practically since the moment

tickets went on sale), that doesn’t mean you

have to miss the entire event. The beauty of the

dining experience is that Atlantic Avenue is closed,

and all the tables and wild decorations are set

up in the street. So, if people watching is your

thing, as well as sipping delicious cocktails

while perusing tablescapes, then grab the

pals and enjoy the event from start to finish.

This dining destination is held Monday,

March 28 from 5:30 to 9pm and includes a

champagne toast and four courses, served from

some of Delray’s most notable restaurants. The

best part is that participating restaurants, and other

local restaurants along the Avenue, are still open for regular

dining, so you can mix and mingle to your heart and stomach’s

content. If you like what you see, make a note to book

your tickets early for next year’s event. (You know, like this

year.) Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com or call (561)

Sure, it can be difficult to be optimistic nowadays. Are

we still dealing with COVID, is it safe to be super social,

what’s the long-term plan with my job, etc. etc.

etc. But there are reasons to be optimistic everyday, and

that’s not just coming from Deepak Chopra. March is Optimism

Month and it’s a great time to tune into the optimistic

part of your brain and head out into the land

of possibilities. If you need somewhere specific to go,

head to the 13th All People’s Day Diversity Festival. Held Saturday,

March 19 from 11am to 3pm at Pompey Park, this free

event is a celebration of Delray’s community members. Created

to showcase the many cultures that make Delray Beach one of

the most diverse communities in South Florida, the All People’s

Day Diversity Festival is a free indoor event that features as

many as 15 musical and dance performances. Committed to

highlighting all people, all cultures and all traditions, the festival

offers free food from different cultural restaurants as well

as 50 booths that include Origami Peace Crane folding, puppet

making and other children’s activities as well as hands-on word

and art games for teens and adults from many non-profits. So

come on out and celebrate the optimism and positivity of the

community! Pompey Park is located at 1101 N.W. Second St.

Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com or call (561) 706-7779

for more information.

Long noodles equal a long life, right? There’s only one way

to find out! (After all, who isn’t down for a good slurp?)

March is National Noodle Month and is a delightful time

to carb load for a cause. Sure, you could go the spaghetti route,

but think outside the box and order the bowl instead. Lemongrass

Asian Bistro invites you to indulge in delightful noodlebased

dishes. Maybe the Duck Noodle Soup, made with housebraised

five spice long island duck, fresh rice noodles, bean

sprouts, garlic, basil and bok choy in duck broth ($19) sounds

like something you could get down on. Or maybe the Drunken

Udon Noodles with stir-fried thick chewy wheat noodles, onion,

chili jam, garlic, Thai basil, red peppers, asparagus and

scallions ($18) tickles your fancy. You can really bring it home

with the Mongolian Udon Noodle entree, with marinated Mongolian

steak, stir fried with thick chewy wheat noodles, chili

jam, garlic, Thai basil, red peppers, onions and scallions ($29).

Whatever your noodle pleasure, Lemongrass is sure to deliver.

Lemongrass Asian Bistro is located at 420 E. Atlantic Ave. Visit

www.lemongrassasianbistrodelraybeach.com or call (561)


You only have one body, so it’s time to treat it like the temple

that it is! March is National Nutrition Month and not

that you have to always eat right, or always take the stairs,

or always opt for no butter on your movie theater popcorn (if

you’re a psycho), but it’s a great reminder to go that extra step

every now and again. To make this goal less daunting for you,

and since no one really knows how to cook tofu anyway, the

lovely chefs at our downtown eateries are here for you and your

BMI. Head to Elisabetta’s for lunch and lovingly sink your teeth

into their Quinoa and Grilled Chicken Salad, made with gorgonzola

dolce, seasonal vegetables, fingerling potatoes, walnut

vinaigrette for $18. Yes, please! Or maybe City Oyster’s crudo

plates for dinner will do the trick. They’re dishing out tuna with

shallot, garlic, and chili oil; salmon with avocado, micro cilantro,

and pickled jalapeños; and hamachi with ponzu, jalapeño,

and garlic, for $17 each. If you’re feeling the meat, Gary Rack’s

Farmhouse Kitchen’s Nut & Seed Crusted Chicken, with roasted

Brussels sprouts, mushrooms, cauliflower, and mustard vinaigrette

for $26 is sure to hit the spot. Regardless of your selections,

going the nutritious route has never been more delicious

and more doable. Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com or call

(561) 243-1077 for more information and restaurant locations.

19th Annual Delray Beach Home Tour

in Scenic Lake Ida Neighborhood

Several homeowners in Delray Beach’s beautiful Lake Ida

Neighborhood will be opening their doors to visitors during

the 19th Annual Delray Beach Home Tour benefiting Achievement

Centers for Children & Families (ACCF) on Wednesday, March

9th from 10am to 4pm. The Delray Beach Home Tour is a unique

opportunity to see exquisite interiors of homes and gardens.

During the tour, which attracts visitors from throughout South

Florida, guests can enjoy a leisurely day exploring unique residences,

a catered luncheon and trolley service between homes.

All Home Tour ticket sales and sponsorships benefit ACCF, which

supports children and families throughout Delray Beach and the

surrounding neighborhoods. At ACCF children are involved in Early

Learning (Toddler and Preschool), Out-of-School (After School and

Summer Camp), and Teen Mentoring programs that prepare them

for academic and social success and empower them to discover

their talents. ACCF families are served through programs like Family

Strengthening and Economic Stabilization, which benefit the

community by helping families in crisis; enabling them to serve as

the foundation of their child’s growth.

The Home Tour was first conceived by long-time ACCF board

members and supporters Anne Bright and Barbara Murphy.

Planning for the home tour, which draws more than 600 visitors

annually, involves more than 100 dedicated volunteers.

Despite their best efforts, ACCF had to cancel the Home Tour

in 2020 and 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Thanks to the

generosity of ACCF supporters, funds

donated to Home Tour the past two

years were critical for ACCF’s children

and families.

Tickets for the Delray Home Tour

are available online at www.achievementcentersfl.org/delray-home-tour.

COVID-19 safety protocols will be in

place at Home Tour. For more information,

► The Batman Dubbed “The Bat and The Cat” about the Batman

vs Catwoman feud in the movie. In his second year of fighting crime,

Batman (Robert Pattinson) uncovers corruption in Gotham City

that connects to his own family while facing a serial killer known

as the Riddler. Andy Serkis as Alfred, Zoe Kravitz as “Catwoman,”

Jeffrey Wright as Gordon, plus Colin Farrell as Cobblepot, Paul

Dano as Nashton, and John Turturro as Falcone.

► After Yang (Theaters + Showtime) When his young daughter’s

beloved companion - an android named Yang (Justin H. Min) -

malfunctions, Jake (Colin Farrell) searches for a way to repair

him. In the process, Jake discovers the life that has been passing in

front of him, reconnecting with his wife (Jodie Turner-Smith) and

daughter across a distance he didn’t know was there.

► Great Freedom (Theaters) Based on a true story about a

prisoner in post-war Germany, Hans is imprisoned again and

again for being homosexual. The one steady relationship in his

life becomes his long-time cell mate, Viktor, a convicted murderer.

What starts in revulsion grows to something called love. The film

Friedrich as Viktor, plus Anton von Lucke, and Thomas Prenn.

► Pixar’s Turning Red (Disney+) Growing up is a beast. Young

actress Rosalie Chiang lends her voice in Turning Red to Mei Lee, a

13-year-old who suddenly “poofs” into a giant red panda when she

gets too excited (which is practically ALWAYS). Sandra Oh voices

Mei Lee’s protective, if not slightly overbearing mother, Ming, who

teenager. Turning Red is both written and directed by Chinese-

Canadian animation filmmaker Domee Shi.

intruders, whilst battling the sinking suspicion that he has been

abandoned to his own fate. Zac Efron co-stars with Anthony Hayes,

who also directs the film.

The Night Shift

by Alex Finlay

Released March 1st

It’s New Year’s Eve 1999. Y2K is expected

to end in chaos: planes falling from the

sky, elevators plunging to earth, world

markets collapsing. A digital apocalypse.

None of that happens. But at a Blockbuster

Video in New Jersey, four teenagers working

late at the store are attacked. Only one

inexplicably survives. Police quickly identify

a suspect, the boyfriend of one of the

victims, who flees and is never seen again.

Fifteen years later, more teenage

employees are attacked at an ice cream

store in the same town, and again only one

makes it out alive.

In the aftermath of the latest crime,

three lives intersect: the lone survivor of

the Blockbuster massacre who’s forced

to relive the horrors of her tragedy; the

brother of the fugitive accused, who’s

convinced the police have the wrong

suspect; and FBI agent Sarah Keller who

must delve into the secrets of both nights -

stirring up memories of teen love and lies

- to uncover the truth about murders on

the night shift.

The Book of Cold

Cases

by Simone St. James


true crime blogger gets more than

A she bargained for while interviewing

the woman acquitted of two cold case

slayings in this chilling new novel from

the New York Times bestselling author of

The Sun Down Motel.

In 1977, Claire Lake, Oregon, was

shaken by the Lady Killer Murders:

Two men, seemingly randomly, were

murdered with the same gun, with strange notes

left behind. Beth Greer was the perfect suspect—a

rich, eccentric twenty-three-year-old woman, seen

fleeing one of the crimes. But she was acquitted, and

she retreated to the isolation of her mansion.

Oregon, 2017. Shea Collins is a receptionist, but

by night, she runs a true crime website, the Book

of Cold Cases—a passion fueled by the attempted

abduction she escaped as a child. When she meets

Beth by chance, Shea asks her for an interview. To

Shea’s surprise, Beth says yes.

They meet regularly at Beth’s mansion, though

Shea is never comfortable there. Items move when

she’s not looking, and she could swear she’s seen a

girl outside the window. The allure of learning the

truth about the case from the smart, charming Beth

is too much to resist, but even as they grow closer,

Shea senses something isn’t right. Is she making

friends with a manipulative murderer, or are there

other dangers lurking in the darkness of the Greer

house?

must forge herself from studious girl to deadly

sniper—a lethal hunter of Nazis known as Lady

Death. When news of her three hundredth kill makes

her a national heroine, Mila finds herself torn from

the bloody battlefields of the eastern front and sent

to America on a goodwill tour.

Still reeling from war wounds and devastated

by loss, Mila finds herself isolated and lonely in

the glittering world of Washington, DC—until an

unexpected friendship with First Lady Eleanor

COPYRIGHTED

Roosevelt and an even more unexpected connection

with a silent fellow sniper offer the possibility of

happiness. But when an old enemy from Mila’s past

joins forces with a deadly new foe lurking in the

shadows, Lady Death finds herself battling her own

demons and enemy bullets in the deadliest duel of

her life.

Based on a true story, The Diamond Eye is a

haunting novel of heroism born of desperation, of

a mother who became a soldier, of a woman who

found her place in the world and changed the course

of history forever.


health & beauty | pain relief

By Dr. Safranski

Bad Posture = Neck Pain

Text neck, tech neck, forward head posture, anterior head

carriage, upper crossed syndrome, military neck, straightening

of the cervical spine, and loss of lordosis are all terms used by

health care professionals today. These big fancy words mean

one thing, you have bad posture. Aside from the aesthetics,

why is posture important?


In a study published in Clinical biomechanics, posture in the

cervical spine (neck) they found that having a forward flexed

posture was more likely to have an increase in failure of the

disc in the middle C3/4 or C5/6. This is important to note because

most people have this posture. When we have the increase

in flexion or loss of cervical lordosis, we become susceptible to

injuries of the spine and neck. Think about it like this, the discs

act as the shock absorbers of the neck, along with good biomechanics

of the cervical spine (posture) and well hydrated discs

(shock absorbers) the spine can absorb injuries and function as

it should. Continuing with the car analogy, if the alignment (cervical

biomechanics) is off then, the shock absorbers are going to

wear out faster which can lead to tires wearing out faster, and so

on and so forth.

You might be asking yourself: How did I get like this? How did

this happen? What can I do to fix it? Well, this happens to all of

us that use a cell phone, a computer, and/or have a desk job. We

are constantly looking down, stretching the posterior (back) side

of the neck - elongating and weakening the muscles in the back

and strengthening the muscles in the front - causing a forward

rolled shoulder. These repetitive actions that we do on a daily basis

cause long term change.

Our bodies are amazing organisms. The human body does

many adaptations to keep our eyes on the horizon and keep us

upright and moving in our day-to-day lives. However, it is not always

the right way to compensate for improper actions such as

looking down at your phone, looking at your computer screen, or

working out the big flexor muscle groups. Eventually we will have

symptoms like neck pain, shoulder pain, numbness in hands and

fingers, muscle weakness, headaches, limited movement, and disc

issues. If we don’t take care of these postural corrections, they

can turn into much more severe problems further down the road.

There are steps to take to regain what has been lost, correct the

necessary structures, and live an active pain free lifestyle.

Step 1: Go to a chiropractor and get an assessment that includes

x-rays, range of motions, and a postural assessment.

Step 2: Get adjusted. Getting adjusted puts motion back into

the segments of the cervical spine that have not been moving

properly. This is not only good from a biomechanics perspective,

but from a physiologic perspective. The spinal discs get their hydration

through movement, so any lack of movement in the cervical

spine leads to dehydrated discs.

Step 3: Find a place that does non-surgical spinal decompression

or traction. Stretching the muscles, ligaments, and tendons in

the case of posture not only helps establish plastic deformation to

restructure the ligaments of the cervical spine, but it helps bring

more motion in to the discs, to hydrate them.

Step 4: Stretch the anterior compartment of the cervical spine

and strengthen the posterior compartment. This will ultimately

solidify the changes that are being made with the adjustment to

achieve long standing changes.

Structure and function are correlated, If the structures are

good, you will function well.

Move well, live well.

Spring Clean Up!

The hot weather is here and bathing suit

season is upon us. If you haven’t shed

that extra layer yet, now is the time!

I’m sure most of you are familiar with that layer that I’m talking

about. That “layer” from the holidays that you swore would be

off in time for summer. It is never too late to get that body in

gear! Here are some tips to kick-start your spring and have

you feeling ready for that summer wardrobe!

The first and most important component of shedding

that unwanted layer is nutrition. I highly

recommend keeping a daily food log of exactly

everything that you are consuming…the

good the bad and the ugly! This will help

you easily pinpoint your strengths

and weaknesses. Make sure to

write it ALL down to make

yourself accountable! Next,

try your best to eliminate processed

foods from your diet and

stick to 70-80% homemade prepared

meals (yes, you can do it!). Food prep

is 100% essential in helping you

reach your goals! These meals

should consist of lean proteins,

healthy fats, complex carbohydrates,

fruit, and of course lots of veggies.

Having healthy food on hand

at all times is a game changer. The

other nutrition component is water!

Your body will not burn fat if

it is dehydrated. It is such a simple

thing many people don’t do. Drinking

proper amounts of water will

also help to keep you feeling full,

help flush out toxins and help decrease

bloating!

The second component

is weightlifting.

It must

be done…period.

Weightlifting is essential to

fat burning and your metabolism. The more muscle

you have, the more calories your body will burn at rest.

Ladies, I promise you will NOT get bulky from lifting

more than five pounds. I compare weight training to a

sculptor taking a piece of round clay molding it into

a nice shapely figure. That is what real work does


to your body. It gives your body the “shape” most are looking to

achieve and that will not happen without picking up some sizable

weights! Many people think cardio alone will do this and that is

the farthest thing from the truth. Although cardio has its time and

place (more about that next) resistance training is essential.

You should aim to get in 4-5 sessions a week, lasting no longer

than 60 minutes.

The last component is incorporating High Intensity

Interval Training also known as HIIT. This is the fastest

and most effective way to decrease your body fat

and show off all the resistance training that you

have been doing. The best thing about this

type of cardio is that you don’t need a lot of

it. The days of super long and slow cardio

sessions are OVER! HIIT will keep your body

burning calories for hours after your actual

session. This type of training involves alternating

between intense bouts of exercise

followed by low intensity exercise. If you

are a beginner, you may want to start

with a 1:1 work ratio. One minute on,

one minute off. HIIT can be performed

anywhere…. outside using sprints or

stairs, on the treadmill, at the beach,

etc. This can also be incorporated

with your weight workouts, which

is what I recommend.

Take these 3 components of

eating clean (do that food prep!)

weight training, and proper cardio,

and you will be

summer ready in

no time. There

is no better way

to welcome the

summer heat

than with a healthy, more

confident you.

Ronni Hawk

If you aren’t already familiar with American

actress Ronni Hawk, let me introduce you to

one of Hollywood’s powerhouse rising starlets.

Auditioning for, and securing a spot at the Bak school in West

Palm Beach, Ronni excelled in dance and cultivated a passion

for being on stage, all prior to her teenage years. A love of performing

now running through her veins, an open modeling audition

in Miami for the Disney Network set into motion her now thriving

profession. With determination and a list of local agencies in hand,

Hawk was quickly signed to World of Kids Model and Talent Agency in

South Florida, and began working at a breakneck pace. Prompted by

a majority of television commercial bookings, Ronni enrolled in acting

classes to hone her new found life path. After enthusiastic feedback

stemming from an intense clinic instructed by two Los Angeles

based coaches, she relocated from Boca Raton, Florida to the west

coast, her mother in tow. Hawk was signed to the prestigious Osbrink

Talent Agency and Monster Talent Management within one week of

her arrival, and started the daunting task of casting calls.

Fast by industry standards, Ronni landed a guest spot on Playing

Hooky as Leah, and more involved roles presented themselves soon

thereafter. Even with a blossoming television career underway, California

law required the young entertainer to obtain schooling, and

she did so assisted by on-location tutors.

“Attending classes while working on a hot set is interesting. You can

be in the middle of a test, and production will call you to film. But I

graduated, have my diploma, and I’m proud of that accomplishment.”

Prepping for an audition can be one of the most anticipated and

pivotal facets of acting, and Ronni makes sure to become fully immersed

in the person she wishes to portray. Hawk describes living in

her desired role for a few days in advance, even dressing and speaking

as the imagined individual, placing her in the correct headspace.

“I’ll quickly memorize my lines, and then meet with a coach to

polish my delivery. If the part is more girly for example, I’ll put on a

good amount of jewelry and make my voice a bit higher to really get a

sense of their personality traits. But if I really want a project, I’ll sleep

with the sides under my pillow for luck.”

In 2016, Ronni was at home with family, when a phone call delivered

the life-altering news that she had landed the character of

Rachel Diaz on Disney Channel’s comedy series, Stuck in the Middle.

After two seasons, Hawk made the decision to move on when she

booked the coveted part of Olivia in the show On My Block, a coming-of-age

Netflix teen dramedy. That same year she also procured a

role on the second season of the CBS produced action drama, S.W.A.T.

“The Tiffany Experience” episode featured Ronni as a social media

star dealing with an overzealous threatening stalker.

Life sometimes imitates art, and when a former fellow cast mate

concocted a vicious rumor, the lie spread swiftly throughout various

media platforms. Recalling advice from one of her first managers

about staying tough in this business, Ronni was confident her true

disposition would shine through and held her head high. “People can

be extremely competitive and sometimes will try to sabotage you

with untruths.”

As the judgments reached an unnerving level, Hawk had no choice

but to ease away from the internet community for a moment. “It can

be hard at times... there was a period where I couldn’t go through any

of my comments. To stay positive, it’s a good idea to take a break in

these circumstances. When an audience thinks of me, I would like to

be known for being a kind, giving person and a loyal friend.”

This multi-talented actress is adding producer to her resume, currently

working on Girl With a Gun, an Indie Movie she stars in and

produces, and admires the catalog of an American filmmaker who

exhibits a distinctive expressive style.

“I would love to work for Wes Anderson. He’s amazing... his vision

is beautiful and I fully enjoy everything he does.”

In her down time Hawk is a self-described avid adventurer, partaking

in scuba diving, hiking, skiing, and horseback riding. The dedicated

perfectionist practices jumping horses almost daily, and is looking

forward to participating next year on the competition circuit.

A visceral love of nature and mankind subsequently led Ronni to

connect with a widely praised charity, The Thirst Project. Hoping to

be a beacon of change amongst her peers, Hawk is involved with

raising awareness for humanitarian issues across the globe. Thirst

Project is a nonprofit organization that works to end the worldwide

freshwater crisis by constructing wells in developing countries

throughout Africa, with one hundred percent of donations disbursed

directly to ongoing projects.

From dance school to taking a leap of faith in the entertainment industry,

Ronni Hawk embodies what happens when raw talent meets

motivation. Always giving viewers her full capacity as an artist, fans

should be eager to see where Ronni proceeds in the future.

The White Glove Experience -

Real Estate with Passion and Excellence

By Diane Feen | photos by melissa korman

They say you are only as strong as your weakest link.

That’s why Taylor Travaglione, VP of Growth and Evolution

for ONE Sotheby’s International Realty is always on the

lookout for top notch savvy real estate agents.

This vision for the crème de la crème of realtors is the most

potent ingredient to their marketing strategy, especially

in the Delray Beach office. “We have only been here for a

short amount of time, but the power of our brand and the continual

growth of the company attracts the best and brightest agents,”

said Travaglione.

Robert Guntmacher fits that exalted pedigree that Travaglione

searches for exclusively. The New York native moved to Delray

Beach six years ago and began renovating and flipping multi-family

properties in Palm Beach County.

Fast forward to today and Guntmacher is a high-powered player

in the residential redevelopment of vacant land, rehabs and teardowns.

His sales history is remarkable, and his reputation and

work ethic are in a rarefied category of exclusivity.

“Robert has done a tremendous amount of business in a relatively

short amount of time. He has achieved what most agents would

hope to accomplish in their entire career. Robert is a property hawk;

he has an incredible eye for identifying and coveting real estate opportunities.

He is the first to learn of investment opportunities and


the most aggressive and proactive agent around,” said Travaglione.

Another reason that Guntmacher is the perfect match for ONE

Sotheby’s International is because of their new Development Division.

They now offer sales and marketing strategies for pre-construction

of multiple dwelling town homes and condo projects. According

to Travaglione they partner with a developer and do their

marketing and sales after the project is completed.

So far this is Guntmacher’s ace in the real estate race. “Last year,

while working at a small independent office, I participated in 26

redevelopment closings. This accounted for $271 million in ongoing

and planned new luxury construction re-development projects

in Delray Beach in the 33444 and 33483 zip codes.”

Prior to coming to ONE Sotheby’s International Realty, Guntmacher

was working in a small local office with one broker, minimal

marketing support and what he calls a “limited future.”

But this charismatic king of real estate doesn’t dwell on the

downside of existence, like water he bounces above the shore and

creates his own path to success. That is why ONE Sotheby’s came

calling for him to join their team in Delray Beach.

COPYRIGHTED

“This year I was contacted by Taylor Travaglione of ONE Sotheby’s

International Realty in Miami, the second largest franchisee

in the Sotheby’s universe. Taylor’s mission is to establish ONE Sotheby’s

as a major player From Miami-Dade and Broward County to

Jacksonville, Florida.”

Guntmacher is spot on. Travaglione is adamant that ONE Sotheby’s

is on the fast track to the pinnacle of sales and service

for their clients – whether residential, commercial or corporate

pre-construction.

“We have a grand vision for what we are going to accomplish

in Delray Beach and the surrounding areas. We are showing our

strength in the marketplace by attracting the best agents to our

ever-growing company.

Part of this new team – that includes Guntmacher – is Julie Giachetti.

She specializes in luxury waterfront property and is at the

top of her game. She is a multiple Diamond Award Winner and has

sold nearly $1 billion in closed real estate sales.

And no one is happier than Travaglione to welcome these two

real estate pros to the ONE Sotheby’s team.

“We have a diverse approach to the brokerage, that is residential,

commercial and new development in South Florida. We have two

amazing new members on our team that align with a market leader

that’s growing at an accelerated rate. The South Florida offices are

in the top tier of the ONE Sotheby’s International Realty portfolio

of real estate.”

Part of this Florida success, according to Travaglione, is their

hyper focus on creating and establishing the best working culture

with support and service for their team.

“Robert and Julie have two amazing careers and are partnering

with ONE Sotheby’s because we are an exciting company with tremendous

growth and resources. We provide unbridled service and

support with a thriving marketing and creative department.”

The ONE Sotheby’s International Realty philosophy is that they

are more concerned with quality than quantity. They are also very

selective about who joins their team.

The reasons are obvious to those who know the ONE Sotheby’s

history and heritage. “ONE Sotheby’s exceeds any and every expectation

one could have for representing a professional organization

populated by quality individuals,” said Guntmacher.

ONE Sotheby’s International Realty is supported by market

knowledge and insights, the latest technology, and a global backbone

of support and service. This expertise is grounded in the belief

that the best experiences inspire the best decisions.

That is why they are experiencing exponential growth, especially

in the Florida marketplace. The company has 27 offices and 1,300

agents from Miami to Jacksonville. Their reputation for experience

and passion for their customers define the Sotheby’s International

Realty brand.

ONE Sotheby’s is known for being a company that finds “Exceptional

Homes for Exceptional People.” Their belief is that the client’s

vision is their inspiration at the highest level of service and

expertise.

They are recognized as a market leader with associates that

bring passion and commitment to every client they serve. Robert

Guntmacher and Julie Giachetti exemplify this creed to reach (and

surpass) real estate royalty.

Local Shopping at its Best

By Nicol Jenkins | photos by melissa korman

When you step through the doors of the

newly opened store, you can tell that it’s

not like any other shop on Atlantic Avenue.

The carefully curated array of products ensures each member of the

family will find a piece they love. The beach-to-bar and office-tostreet

merchandise, from brands like Scotch & Soda, Vineyard Vines

and Peter Millar, perfectly suits the Delray audience and marks Global Pursuit

as a local alternative to the mall. What completes the exceptional shopping

experience, however, is the store’s spacious, welcoming atmosphere

and passionate, friendly staff.

The store’s owners, mother and son team Angela and Sam Marsh, strive

to stock and support environmentally conscious brands. Patagonia, Faherty,

and Marine Layer— all born on the water— have excellent initiatives to

save our oceans. “Each of these brands represents Global Pursuit and our

drive to give back to the source that’s given so much to us,” said Angela, adding,

“One of the things that set us apart is that we seek out these sustainable

brands,” said Angela, “And the other is customer service. The people in the

shop are the true difference; it is what makes shopping local so special.”


Angela opened her first store in Stone Harbor, New Jersey, and has expanded

her business with her son, Sam, by her side. The Atlantic Avenue

shop opened last October, and the community has responded well as repeat

customers are now the norm.

“Global Pursuit began over 13 years ago. Much has changed since then,

but our mission remains the same: To stock the best designs and best fabrications

while keeping sustainability front of mind. We have bespoke clothing,

accessories and footwear for the whole family, so you can Feel Good

about Looking Great,” said Angela, adding, “We are also so lucky to be able

to work together as a family with Sam starting work in the shop back in

Stone Harbor, NJ when he was just 13. Through the last dozen years, he

came to many trade shows, learned the back office and now is a true partner.

He was the primary designer of the Delray store’s interior and has a

great eye for what works in the space.”

The duo is excited to be a part of the Delray community. Giving back

to the local community is at the core of their mission. They supported

and participated in the Tenth Annual Delray Beach Fashion Week and are

members of the DDA and Chamber of Commerce.

“The community has been incredibly receptive to the store, some of

whom know us from our NJ location. Others who are just finding us for the

first time are happy not to have to trek to the mall for a new button down for

work, a polo for golf, or a new dress for the office or dinner out,” said Angela.

Brands like Peter Millar and Chubbies have been a favorite for many

local gentlemen. Women adore the breadth of styles featuring Gretchen

Scott, Sanctuary, and Tribal. Everyone loves the options from Faherty

Brand, Vineyard Vines, and Marine Layer. Art-driven brands like Obey,

plus sports fan favorites, ‘47 Brand, and Mitchell and Ness, are also part

of the mix. Much of their apparel is made from environmentally friendly

COPYRIGHTED

products, such as organic cotton and repurposed recycled materials—you

can find a bathing suit from Patagonia made of recycled fishing nets or a

tee from Marine Layer made of organic cotton. Global Pursuit also offers a

great selection of shoes and sandals including Hey Dude, Havaianas, Ugg,

Vionic, and Teva.

It has been a labor of love for the family to transform the old pharmacy

location into a beautiful shopping environment.

“I love being in the retail industry, every season brings new challenges.

Working with our team to meet those challenges is so incredibly rewarding.

Supply chain issues, the lack of in person trade shows was an additional

difficulty that we had to navigate these past two years but working

with our vendors as partners we were able to make it through successfully.

Learning our customers and meeting their needs, making them happy

about how they look is so fun. We love making people feel good about looking

great,” said the owners.

Though the shop is new to the Avenue, the shop’s heart and soul is not.

Mary and her team including Didi, Athena, and Terri have long worked

in retail on the Avenue and are magicians at assisting guests. Customers

praise Global Pursuit’s owners and staff for a positive shopping experience.

“This place is simply amazing. Wonderful staff that are knowledgeable

about their products. It seemed like they really wanted to make sure I

walked out satisfied with my purchase. Also, great style for Delray! I’ll definitely

be back!” said one customer.

“I had a great experience at Global Pursuit. Friendly and accommodating

staff were eager to help both my fiancé and I will definitely be back to

revisit their great selection!” said another happy customer.

“I knew that I would become a loyal customer the moment I walked

through the doors. I was immediately welcomed by a member of the staff

and the store has a bright, inviting atmosphere. The clothes are perfect if

you are going for a casual yet stylish beach vibe. I would definitely recommend

this store for all age groups and plan on coming back to stock my

spring wardrobe!” praised another frequent customer.

“Absolutely will be my new go-to in Delray - awesome selection of men’s

clothing. Love the style and feel like just about anyone could find something

they like in here!”

Stop by Global Pursuit for a wonderful local shopping experience for

your entire family!

as knowledge of the locations; I handle the research, negotiations

“Together we have become the “go-to” team because of our

knowledge and ability to deliver time and time again. At the office,

we are the first ones in and last ones out. We have already contracted

over $10,000,000 this year and have 4 new listings coming over

you miss out on what this area is becoming, this market is not

likely to crash. We deal with too many out of town clients relocating

old school square

What is Happening?

Old School Square

Has Been All Over

the News these Days

The well-known non-profit that created Old School Square

had its lease terminated in August. They were forced to vacate

the property in February. Here are the Top Ten Things to

Know about the Old School Square issue.

Old School Square’s (OSS) lease was terminated by the City

1 Commission after 32 years of service “without cause.” The public

was given no notice and the item did not appear on the agenda.

The vote was 3-2.

2

Despite invoking the “no cause” portion of the lease, a majority

of commissioners have alleged that Old School Square fell

out of compliance with the lease terms. OSS maintains that they are

in compliance, have produced clean audits, and have been willing

to talk to the city about any issues or concerns. OSS was late with

audits because its auditors quit during the pandemic. But subsequently,

a new auditing firm was hired, and OSS produced clean

audits.

OSS made many offers to meet with the City, which have been

3 rejected. OSS made a settlement offer in January, but the offer

wasn’t considered. Commissioners refused to talk about it among

themselves, cancelling a scheduled session one hour before it was

scheduled, citing lack of interest in settling.

OSS programmed right up until the end, citing its desire to serve

4 the community. The last concert was held in February.

The city has alleged that a renovation of the Crest Theatre and

the construction of a commercial kitchen for special events was

5

done without permission. OSS did receive a building permit for the

renovations which were fully paid for by a donor: Margaret Blume.

The project was halted one month before completion. Taxpayers

will have to complete the theater and commercial kitchen.

OSS paid for 75-80 percent of the costs of OSS operations and

6 the CRA paid for the rest so OSS could provide below market

rate events and programming including free Friday night concerts.

Without the presence of a non-profit, the city would be responsible

for 100 percent of the costs. Ticket sales, rentals and concession

sales would offset some costs, but without a 501c3, donors would

not be able to make tax-deductible contributions.

The city issued an RFP (Request for Proposals) to take over

7 the facilities (except for the Cornell Museum which went unaddressed)

and nobody applied.

At press time, the city was considering hiring a consultant to

8 provide direction and help restart the facility.

To date, there has been no effort to engage the community

COPYRIGHTED

9

about the future of their cultural arts center despite the efforts

of eight former mayors who sent a letter to the commission urging

public involvement.

The CRA, which was taken over by the City Commission, has

10 so far failed to pay OSS for services already rendered. OSS

may challenge that decision.

What’s Next

OSS has filed suit against the lease termination. OSS officials have

said they would like to settle the case and continue serving the

community. To date, a majority of the City Commission has shown

no interest in settling or talking to OSS.

“The Delray Affair”

By Roy M. Simon

This year, the Delray Beach Chamber of Commerce celebrates the 60th anniversary of

the Delray Affair. Since its inception in 1962 as the Gladiola Festival, it has grown to be

a much loved annual event celebrating the Arts and our town. Read on for a history of

the Delray Affair by one of its founders, Roy Simon.

Over the years, dating back to the late 1940’s, events have

been held celebrating the farmers of the community and the

local agricultural industry which is Delray’s heritage and

was its economic base.

Because the Delray area was the “Gladiola Capital of the World”

in the 1940’s and 50’s, the Gladiola Festival was created during

spring harvest to show off the product of the area. This Exposition

was a huge event, drawing thousands to Delray from all over with

large, glamorous Orange Bowl floats, bands, and beauty queens. It

was a time when the gladiola farms of our area created a beautiful

pallet of color as you headed west on Atlantic Avenue. As the

gladiola farms became urban developments and vegetable farms,

tourism became the focus of the area.

To maintain ties with the agriculture industry and to arouse interest

in its contributions to our economic vitality, the Chamber

of Commerce introduced the “Agricultural Expo”. Chaired by Roy

Simon, the first event was a small stand in the parking lot of First

National Bank of Delray Beach (now SunTrust) on East Atlantic Avenue.

The stand was furnished by Vic Neal, who helped prepare the

display of the many varieties of fruit and vegetables grown in the

area, in addition to flowers and nursery items. The Display provided

information regarding the products grown and shipped from the

area and the economic contributions of the agricultural community

to the area and the county.

Because of the enthusiasm of the farmers and the wonderful reception

by the community, the second expo was a two-day event,

held in the Delray Community Center gymnasium. The displays

covered the entire floor of the gym and were filled with produce

of every variety and proudly presented by the participating farms.

The exhibits included livestock, which were displayed in the lawn

between the Community Center and the tennis courts, ranging from

hogs and chickens to Santa Gertrudas beef cattle. The variety and

extent of the displays and the fact that all was local had many members

of the community in a state of surprise and awe.

Times continued to change and farms continued to be lost to

more development. At the same time, the City and the area were

growing, becoming the home of artists and authors, many of whom

were nationally and internationally renowned. President of the

Delray Chamber of Commerce, Roy Simon, recommended to the

Chamber Board that the expo be expanded to an art festival, similar

to the ones held in Winter Park, Florida. The concept was well


received and President-elect John Bordeman volunteered to chair

the committee.

The first committee meeting was held at the Arcade Tap Room

with members Andy Gent, Ken Ellingsworth, Buddy Merritt, artist

Beth Simon, authors Nathaniel and Sylvia Weyl, artist Gay Drake

and Chairman John Bordeman. Among the discussions was the

naming of the event. Suggestions were “Delray Art Festival”, “Delray

Art Affair”, etc. From there Andy Gent or Nathaniel Weyl joked,

“Delray Affair”. After a brief discussion, all agreed that this festival

of the arts should be named “The Delray Affair”.

As an enhancement and to diversify, it was decided that the festival

should include art, literature and music. The concept was to

recognize the abundance of talent of the area and to bring in others

from around the state and beyond. Events were designed to bring

the communities closer together and to inform the public and local

residents of the products grown in the area’s agricultural fields and

of the creative artisans residing in the area.

One feature of the arts festival was the “Literary Tea” held in the

Delray Library. Gathered there were the many authors who made

Delray their home, such as Theodore Pratt, Nathaniel Weyl and

Laura Sinks Britt. This activity was a great success. Unfortunately,

it was never repeated.

To enhance the display of art along East Atlantic Avenue, a local

grower provided hundreds of pots of mums which were set out

like luminaries on both sides creating a half mile of floral color.

Before the day was finished, most of the plants disappeared as

people picked them up to take home, some in cars and others in

pick-up trucks. It was the birth of selling the flowers for charity,

instead of trying to display. Hence, the reintroduction of gladiolas

as a trademark.

Music and dance volunteers performed on several strategically

located “stages”, and musicians strolled along Atlantic Avenue. It

was a beautiful scene, well-received by the entire community. It

worked and became so popular that the “Thieves Market” and

crafts were added. The event became a fixture on the calendar for

the first weekend after Easter, hoping to retain the snowbirds and

tourists at least one more week. It has grown from a one block

display to the current eight blocks-plus event. This new event, THE

DELRAY AFFAIR that excited the entire community, has grown to

become a top event of the Southeastern United States.

May it continue and grow.

-Len Gengel

Bringing Light to Darkness

The Gengel family learned firsthand

how life can change in an instant.

That instant was 12 years ago.

It was then that 19-year-old Britney Gengel – daughter of Len

and Cherylann – went to Haiti on a missionary trip to build

houses with her classmates from Lynn University.

But the houses never did get built. Instead, a catastrophic 7.0

earthquake shook Haiti to its core and left 300,000 people dead

and 180,000 homes destroyed.

Unfortunately, Britney was one of the 300,000 who perished on

that day. It also left the Gengel family bereft for their beloved Britney.

“Brit was the ‘it’ girl. She had a beautiful soul inside and out

and a smile that would melt anyone. She was a voice for those who

did not have one,” said her father, Len.

As a way to turn grief into gratitude the Gengel family sprang

into action and created what is known as the “Be Like Brit Foundation.”

The foundation’s first large undertaking was to build a 9.0

earthquake-proof orphanage in Grand Goâve, Haiti.

Though hope and loss were the underpinnings of this foundation,

it is love and symbolism that has enclosed its vast grasp. Grand

Goâve was the town that Britney was going to build houses in the

day after the earthquake. The building is shaped like the letter “B,”

and is 19,000-square-feet symbolizing Britney’s 19 years on earth.

The non-adoptive orphanage is a place of love, education, nurturing,

activities, and happiness for children that have lost their families

in the earthquake or other calamities. There are 66 children in

residence – 33 boys and 33 girls – which stand for the 33 days it

took to recover Brit’s body from the rubble.

In her 19 years Britney inspired her peers, her family and her

classmates. She also found her calling in the wilderness and deprivation

of Haiti.

In a text to her mother just hours before the earthquake Brit

had an epiphany. “They love us so much and everyone is so happy.

They love what they have and they work so hard to get nowhere,

yet they are all so appreciative. I want to move here and start an

orphanage myself.”

That is the sole reason why Len, a retired home builder from

Rutland, Massachusetts took 39 trips to Haiti (over two years) to

help build the orphanage in honor of Britney.

He also moved to Delray Beach in 2014. So did his son Bernie,

the VP of the Foundation and IT savant. “We chose Delray because

Brit loved Delray and her brother Bernie really wanted an office

in Delray,” said Len.

They opened their first Florida office in the Delray Beach Chamber

offices, and their Marketing Director, Diane Rosayn co-chairs

the chamber’s Nonprofit Council program.

The “Be like Brit” Orphanage is in full tilt with full-time support

staff, teachers and security staff under the direction of Manmi

Love Pun, whose husband Johny Pun was a Delray police officer

killed on his motorcycle.

For years the foundation also invited guests to help build homes

in Haiti and experience the beauty of its origin. Called the “Britsionary

Program” over 1,800 people have built over 145 houses in Haiti.

Delray Chamber’s Program Director Lynn Van Lenten was one

of them. “Len and his family did something with their grief I have

never seen before – they took Britney’s dream and saved 66 kids

(and others) with this orphanage. Be Like Brit adopted each child,

ensuring security for a lifetime.

My husband and I stayed at Brit’s Home, got to know the kids,

helped build a house and experienced the gift of love, safety and a

future that Be Like Brit has given each child.”

If you talk to Len or Bernie, you realize that these are not just

children from Haiti being sheltered in place. They are considered

part of the Gengel family. “The Brit Foundation kids really saved me.

After losing my sister I kept coming back to Haiti to do good and

continue Brit’s compassion full time. I have 66 nieces and nephews

– the kids call me Uncle Bernie or Ton Ton Bernie.”

Len also sees these children as an ethereal conduit to goodness

and grace. “Our kids healed my soul. If we can make the world a

little better place before we leave this earth, then we have accomplished

great things. That’s my goal for our children.”

As a way to empower the children even more they are building a

house in Northwest Delray so the children can come to the U.S. and

attend college or get jobs.

“This six-bedroom home will be a place our children can call

home as they go to college in the states. It’s in a Haitian neighborhood

and will be an extension of Brit’s Home in Haiti. It’s a metaphorical

bridge from Grand Goâve to Delray Beach,” adds Len.

Just last month the Delray Beach Habitat for Humanity reached

out to help build the “House of Love” (as Len calls it) on NW 11th

Avenue.

The Be Like Brit Foundation has also built homes in Haiti for residents,

employed local workers and gives away clean water from its

nanotechnology water filtration system. Bernie also created a social

media site for the kids called Britnett.

This heart rendering story about the Gengel family and its mission

to create diamonds out of destiny is documented in a book

written by Len and Cherylann called, “Heartache and Hope in Haiti.”

There is also an outstanding YouTube Video that shows the children,

the beautiful grounds, and the outpouring of love during poignant

moments at the “Be Like Brit” compound in Haiti.

You can move mountains - and create wonders in the name of

love - Just ask Len, Bernie and Cherylann. “When Be Like Brit started

it was a way to honor my sister. It also kept my family together

and gave us a lot of hope. And it has,” said Bernie.

Homemade Food Made to Please You

IL CONTADINO RISTORANTE

Michel Menna is a people

pleaser – in a foodie kind of way.

He dotes on his customers with homemade Italian fare at his

intimate restaurant in Pineapple Grove.

The restaurant, Il Contadino is a place where people

come to celebrate holidays, birthdays or just want to luxuriate in

the pampering and power of a homemade Italian meal.

Menna likes when his patrons call ahead to tell him what foods

they prefer. That way he has time to create the perfect version of

their favorite dishes with élan.


Veal Siciliana

Ken Chiarella came to Il Contadino with his mother Marilyn

(who was celebrating a milestone birthday) and three of his

friends. All are snowbirds and find themselves smitten with the

culinary prowess of Menna.

“Michel puts out food that is second to none. Everything is personalized

and fresh, and the flavors are distinct and amazing. Every

time we come here, he asks us what we want, and then he

prepares it beautifully.”

When Ken’s mom Marilyn asked for lamb chops for her birthday

dinner, Menna didn’t have them. But within an hour they

mysteriously appeared in front of her with all the trimmings. She

beamed with delight as her son looked on with amazement and

accolades fit for a prince.

“I have been to the best restaurants in New York and Italy and

Michel is as good as all of them. I always tell the truth; this place

is amazing.”

Others feel the same way. “Do not walk past this place when you

visit downtown Delray. If you’re a true foodie tell Owner/Chef Michel

you want to try the meatball first and you will be blown away!

Then enjoy dinner and very fine wines! Support your local chef,

there’s no one better!”

Some of the dishes that Ken and his guests (Sam and Judy Maruca)

had are steeped in Italian tradition and prepared artfully and

tastefully. They raved about the artichoke hearts basted in garlic

with a wine sauce, sprinkled with Reggiano cheese. As lovers of

homemade Italian food, the group feasted on Zuppa di Mussels in

a light tomato sauce with clam broth, as well as Cowboy Rib-Eye

COPYRIGHTED

Peperonata with peppers, onions, tomatoes and mushrooms in a

red tomato sauce.

Cooking has been a passion of Menna’s since he was a tot. When

his parents were away, he would go into the kitchen and create

gourmet dishes for them. “My parents would come home and say,

‘who catered this meal.’ I could barely reach the stove, but I loved

cooking, it’s always been my creative outlet.”

His guests can tell. “This pasta made me feel like I was in Italy.

We have been here so many times and it’s always wonderful,” said

Maruca. His wife Judy was all smiles as the spaghetti with anchovies,

garlic, olive oil, and breadcrumbs came to the table.

One of Menna’s finest dishes is his tequila tortellini, prepared

tableside in a flame-lit pan that sparks the tequila to adhere to the

creamy light sauce. Add that to the peas, prosciutto, and Reggiano

cheese, and you have a delicious pasta that hails from the greats.

It seems Michel is always on the prowl for new dishes and new

experiences. After all, he has been in the restaurant business for 40

years. Just recently he tasted potato latkes from another restaurant.

Not impressed he quickly got out his frying pan and tried his hand

at this ethnic dish. What he came up with is a potato latke lover’s

dream. Tasty, crispy, and fresh, they seemed to disappear as quick as

they came to the table. He also added sour cream to the center fold.

For Marilyn’s birthday, Menna cooked up a rack of lamb with

roasted garlic and rosemary. It was a dream dish, she said. And she

ought to know. The Boynton Beach resident cooked delicious authentic

Italian meals for her family for years.

For Michel time does not stop. Though the restaurant business

has been hard hit by the pandemic he continues to experiment in

new ways to please guests. “I will be open for breakfast if people

want me to. I make great omelets with fresh vegetables and other

style egg dishes. People just have to call me.”

Menna is also making fresh pizzas with all the trimmings of the

pizza heritage. There is a difference between pizza and homemade

pizza, and Michel wants to show everyone the difference. Also

new at Il Contadino are fresh paninis and wraps with meats, fresh

cheese, lettuce and tomato.

Other outstanding dishes are Pork Osso Bucco that is braised all

day with tomatoes and vegetables as well Mozzarella En Carrozza.

If you are a fish lover, try the whole Branzini, baked with garlic and

wine, delicately cooked.

If you are celebrating a special occasion Menna will prepare

Cowboy Ribeye Steak Pepperonata

homemade dishes for as many people can fit inside this intimate

space. He also has over a thousand different wines from around the

globe waiting to be opened.

The Chiaprella and Maruca clan had a bottle of Napa Valley Eagle

Eye red wine that was divine. Full-bodied and smooth to the palate,

it was an excellent choice. Whatever your wine preference is,

Menna will make it happen.

That might be another reason people love dining there. “Michael

and his staff take the farm to table concept to new heights. I had

Eggplant Napoleon, wow. A fresh and delicious take on eggplant

rollatini. His presentation of veal cutlet with eggplant gave new life

to an old favorite – it was amazing. Topped it off with cannoli and

cappuccino. Best ever. This place is the real deal,” said Doug.

It’s comments like Doug’s that makes Michel smile. It is also what

makes his passion flame – not only table side – but inside his heart.

Corned Beef Irish Feast

Mouthwatering tender corned beef with corned beef

flavored potatoes, cabbage, and carrots. This is great

served with both Irish soda bread and corn bread.

ingredients

• 1 (3 pound) corned beef brisket with spice packet

• 1 cup brown sugar

• 4 (12 fluid ounce) cans or bottles Irish stout beer

(such as Guinness®), or more if needed

• 1 quart beef stock

• 1 onion, peeled

• 2 cloves garlic, peeled

• 2 bay leaves

• 12 whole black peppercorns

• 2 pounds red potatoes, quartered

• 1 (16 ounce) package carrots, cut into sticks

• 1 head cabbage, cut into wedges

directions

1. Rinse brisket thoroughly in cool water and place into a

large Dutch oven. Generously coat beef with brown sugar

on all sides. Pour Irish stout beer around roast, followed

by beef stock. Liquid should cover brisket by about 1 inch;

add another beer if more liquid is needed.

2. Place onion, garlic, bay leaves, spike packet from

corned beef, and peppercorns into liquid. Bring to a boil,

reduce heat to low, and cover Dutch oven. Simmer for 2

1/2 hours, turning brisket over in the beer mixture every

30 minutes. Place potatoes and carrots around roast,

cover, and simmer for 20 minutes. Add cabbage wedges

and simmer until tender, about 10 more minutes. Brisket

should easily pull apart with your fingers or a fork.

3. Transfer vegetables to a serving bowl and place corned

beef on a serving platter; let meat rest 10 minutes before

slicing across the grain to serve.

When Do I Need to

See My Veterinarian?

We are faced with this question on a daily basis as most pet

owners do not trust their own instincts and judgment.

The person that knows the most about their pet is YOU,

the pet parent. We all understand that when our pet has an off day,

whether it is lack of appetite, loose stool, vomiting, itching or so

many other symptoms, we tend to panic. Why do we panic?

The real reason is that we have elevated our pets to family status

which means we have brought our own values into their lives.

While we celebrate these upgrades, we should also follow a more

humane treatment regimen for our pets. First and foremost, we

must understand that the physiological requirements of our pets

are much different than what humans are. This is why it is so important

that we use resources available such as these pages to learn

more about the requirements that our pets need. Their physiology

dictates a different nutritional program than what we require. We

also have to weigh the disease and pathogen threats that are very

different than those of ours.

Obviously, veterinary attention is always necessary in the case of a

known acute trauma or injury. Major cuts, accidents, possible broke

bones and internal injuries definitely need emergency care. Possible

poisoning and medication adverse events also should be verified.

However, we must ask if our over reactions to minor changes in

our pet’s behavior and health put the veterinary providers in an

awkward position? We need to understand that they are trained in

medicine like human medical providers. Their expertise is in medical

treatments. They are normally not trained in nutrition, health

and behavior sciences. It is not required or often not offered in the

veterinary curriculum at veterinary schools and universities. As

a result, most veterinarians do not have the expertise that one is

looking for in holistic alternatives.

Your pet’s health is your responsibility! You should know as

BY Bill Piechocki and Dr. Diane Sudduth, DVM

much of your pet’s history as possible so you can make informed

decisions. With rescues, normally you only know that they have

had every vaccination that the administering veterinarian recommended

without knowledge of any previous medical history. We

also know that the diet is that of commercially prepared pet foods

of various brands and qualities which we know have a profound

effect on overall health.

While we understand that you are looking for knowledge for

your pet’s health, I ask you this, is a medical doctor that is trained

in medical procedures and drugs the best source for your pet’s

health? Pet food companies are product companies, not health venues.

Medicine, drug companies can be very helpful for treating specific

symptoms; however, do they actually cure disease?

The bottom line to this article is that veterinary care has become

very expensive. On so many levels, we expect our veterinarians to

be experts in choices that they may not even have the expertise

to offer advice. They are the experts in medicine emergency care.

Health is a pet parent’s responsibility. We are here as nutritionists

to help guide you through our ongoing education and research.

Follow us here and on our podcasts at iHeart.com Pet Health

Café for the information and education you need to provide your

pet with the optimal health and life that they deserve.

“HOME IS NOT

A PLACE BUT

A FEELING”

Located in Delray Beach, a vibrant seaside town in southeast Florida filled

with art galleries, upscale shops and fine restaurants, Siréne Villas is a

collection of six townhouses conceived as a haven of understated

sophistication and discrete luxury. Taking a cue from the town’s thriving art

scene, the architects drew inspiration from Cote d'Azur, a magical corner

of southern France known as much for its eternally summery allure as for

the long list of illustrious painters like Matisse, Chagall, and Picasso who

made it their home. The six townhouses channel the soulful charm and

artistic heritage of the French Riviera through a poised, pared down

aesthetic of minimalist purity and sculptural rigour.

COPYRIGHTED

Underpinned by a sense of openness and lightness, the interiors are a

paradigm of understatement with a soothing color palette of white,

cream and earthy tones complementing natural materials and exquisitely

crafted details. Combined with all the amenities you’d expect in a luxury

property, Siréne Villas are a serene retreat of timeless modernity and

heightened refinement.
