Chicago-based Cancer Treatment Center to Bring 225 Jobs to City By: CRA News Service
Cancer Treatment Centers of America is moving its national headquarters to Boca Raton from suburban Chicago, the Boca Raton Tribune has learned. The Schaumburg, Ill.-based company is expected to employ some 225 people. “We are excited to have Cancer Treatment Centers of America become part of our community,” Mayor Susan Whelchel said. Information on how many employees would relocate was not given. CTCA has yet to choose an exact location in Boca Raton, and no date has been given for when the company will move. The five-hospital national network has facilities in Goodyear, Ariz.; Newnan, Ga.; Philadelphia; Tulsa; and Zion, Ill. A recent Modern Healthcare investigation found that three of these facilities were among the nation’s leaders in receiving Medicare supplemental “outlier” payments that are based on hospital retail prices as opposed to standard Medicare payments. see page 4

Olympic Heights High Zerorobotics Team Recognized at MIT
By Bito David Zero Robotics is a robotics programming competition where the robots are SPHERES (Synchronized Position Hold Engage and Reorient Experimental Satellites) inside the International Space Station. The competition starts online where teams from across the United States and Europe program the SPHERES satellite to solve an annual challenge. After several phases of virtual competition in a simulation environment that mimics the real SPHERES, finalists are selected to compete in a live championship aboard the ISS. In the first semester of the 2013-2014 school year, the Olympic Heights ZeroRobotics team signed up for this after-school virtual challenge. The game is motivated by a current problem of interest to NASA and MIT- the possibility of a comet striking the earth! Student software controls satellite speed, rotation, direction of travel, etc. Depending on the game premise, the students must program their satellites to complete game objectives while conserving resources, and staying within specified time and code-size limits. The programs are “autonomous” – that is, the students cannot control the satellites during the test itself. Almost 200 teams from around the United States and Europe went through many rounds of elimination, and the top teams, including Olympic Heights, travelled to MIT from Jan. 16 to 18 to take part in the final round. Olympic Heights was the only
Community News
Palm Beach County School invited to participate in this final round. The team members who attended were Joseph Landry, Sarah Curtis, Ryan Dingman, and Shayna Soares, mentored by engineering teacher Nimmi Arunachalam. Other members of the team are Jerry Zuili, Jake Rice, Julia Grober and Charles McGuire. The team was also mentored by parent volunteer, Patrick Zuili. At the finals on Jan. 17, teams were able to submit their code and watch via a live feed two astronauts run their computer programs aboard the International Space Station. Teams were also invited to send a representative for an interview session, to discuss game strategies employed. Olympic Heights senior Joseph Landry spoke about OH’s team, called Pride of Boca, in front of an audience containing four space shuttle astronauts, Hollywood director Gavin Hood and Visual Effects Supervisor Matthew Butler, and hundreds of students and parents. He was also broadcast live on the web throughout the world as well as to the International Space Station. Additionally, the OH students met the astronauts and the director, took a tour of MIT, and explored MIT’s research facilities and labs. “It was an amazing experience,” said junior Sarah Curtis. “Participating in this incredible conference really reinforced my love of engineering.” Great job Olympic Heights!
Chicago-based Cancer Treatment Center to Bring 225 Jobs to City By CRA NEWS SERVICE Cancer Treatment Centers of America is moving its national headquarters to Boca Raton from suburban Chicago, the Boca Raton Tribune has learned. The Schaumburg, Ill.-based company is expected to employ some 225 people. “We are excited to have Cancer Treatment Centers of America become part of our community,” Mayor Susan Whelchel said. Information on how many employees would relocate was not given. CTCA has yet to choose an exact location in Boca Raton, and no date has been given for when the company will move. The five-hospital national network has facilities in Goodyear, Ariz.; Newnan, Ga.; Philadelphia; Tulsa; and Zion, Ill. A recent Modern Healthcare investigation found that three of these facilities were among the nation’s leaders in receiving Medicare supplemental “outlier” payments that are based on hospital retail prices as opposed to standard Medicare payments. The decision to relocate to Boca Raton was based on the “favorable business climate,” closeness to three airports, and other factors determined to be helping allow CTCA accelerate investment in talent, technology and other resources, according to a news release from Gov. Rick Scott’s office. Gerard van Grinsven, CTCA president and CEO, said in the release that the Boca Raton location provided company employees “exciting opportunities for further personal and professional development.” He thanked the state of Florida, the city of Boca Raton, the Palm Beach County Business Development
www.bocaratontribune.com
Board, and the governor’s Enterprise Florida organization “for their assistance with our evaluation of the benefits associated with our relocation.” “Selecting Boca Raton as our new corporate headquarters represents a major step in positioning Cancer Treatment Centers of America to serve even more patients in the future, while simultaneously providing our dedicated and valued employees with exciting opportunities for further personal and professional development,” van Grinsven said. Van Grinsven replaced Stephen Bonner as CEO last year. Bonner remains with the company as executive chairman. Illinois officials “made a pretty aggressive offer” to keep CTCA’s headquarters in the state, said Dave Roeder, spokesman for the Illinois Department of Commerce. The sweeteners Illinois offered the company include an income tax break through its Economic Development for a Growing Economy, or EDGE, program which offers corporate income tax breaks based on a percentage of personal income tax returns it could expect from the retained jobs. A job training program was also on the table. “Altogether, the proposal was to retain about 600 jobs here at separate locations they have in Schaumburg and Zion,” Roeder said. “We’re keeping a large measure of the jobs here; we could’ve lost more.” Roeder noted that the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board recently approved an $84 million 168,000-square-foot patient tower at the CTCA’s Midwestern Regional Medical Center, a 73-bed hospital in Zion.

Candidate For Seat A Has Already Won Election Candidate For Seat A Has Already Won Election The Boca Raton City Council elections are not for another couple months yet one candidate has already secured his spot in Seat A come March 11. Singer, who was running for Seat A, won the seat after having no opposition after candidate Craig Ehmst changed from Seat A to Seat B. Seat A is currently occupied by Deputy Mayor Susan Haynie who is running for the Mayor seat against City Councilman Anthony Majhess. In 2012 Majhess had won reelection to council and could have stayed on until 2015, however, he has to resign his council seat in order to run for mayor, according to city clerk Susan Saxton. Since Singer was the only person that filed paperwork to qualify for Seat A, he is deemed elected and his name will not appear on the ballot on March 11. Singer’s three-year term will begin on March 31 and like all the council candidates who
win, he’ll have to be sworn in. The man who changed seats, Craig Ehmst, is now running for Seat B versus incumbent Michael Mullaugh, candidates Mohamed Abdalla, and Eric Gooden. In a campaign event on January 23, Ehmst spoke about the switch. “I felt Scott was a responsible individual and Mike is a nice person, but we have to get into a lot more detail, and I’d better serve the community by running against Mike.” Another seat which is up for grabs is Seat D, which is only a one-year term for the unexpired portion of Anthony’s term. The people running for Seat D are Yaniv Alcalay, Rosetta V. Bailey, and Robert S. Weinroth. Only 6,851 city residents voted in the 2012 Municipal Election, according to Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections totals. Only city residents can vote, not anyone with a Boca Raton address who lives in the county but not within city limits.

FAU Lecture on Zen and the Art of Formless Precepts BOCA RATON, Fla. (January 27, 2014) – The Department of History in Florida Atlantic University’s Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters presents a lecture on “Zen and the Art of Formless Precepts in the Evolving Platform Sutra” on Thursday, Feb. 6 at 4 p.m., at the Wimberly Library, fifth floor, 777 Glades Road, Boca Raton campus. The lecture will be presented by professor Morten Schlütter of the University of Iowa. One hundred years ago, two expeditions crossed the Silk Road in western China in search of treasure. These expeditions were headed by Sir Aurel Stein of England and Paul Pelliot of France. At an oasis called Dunhuang, they made a fantastic discovery. Hidden in the secret chamber of a Buddhist cave was a lost library from 1,000 years ago. Today, scholars are still just scratching the surface of this discovery. At the FAU lecture, Schlütter will discuss a chapter from his current book project on the most famous of
all Zen texts, the Platform Sutra. The version of the sutra found in Dunhuang describes a ritual for the bestowal of formless precepts. These precepts are the natural moral compass that exists in all of us. In later editions of the sutra, the ritual side of this concept begins to be downplayed. Why this happens, and what this means for our understanding of Zen is the subject of Schlütter’s fascinating lecture. In addition to the lecture, there will be a special exhibit of rare books from FAU Special Collections. Did you know that the famous Civil War General Ulysses S. Grant, who is remembered on the U.S. $50 bill, went to China and met with members of the imperial family? A rare copy of this 19th century book that describes his journey will be on display before and after the lecture. This book and others from FAU’s rare book collection represent a time capsule of what Stein and Pelliot would have read before embarking on their adventures on the Silk Road in 1901.
Town Center Mall car Burglar Going Through Rough Times By CRA News Service Times are rough for Joel Garcia. So the Canal Point man told police he rode a bus to Town Centre Mall to break into cars and steal money. Police charged Garcia, 24, with burglary to auto and possession of marijuana. It started shortly before 3 p.m. on Jan. 22 when someone saw Garcia trying to open the doors to several cars in the parking lot and called police. A Boca Raton police officer, working an extra duty detail,
www.bocaratontribune.com
responded and found Garcia. The officer watched Garcia until the agency’s tactical team officers arrived. They watched as Garcia removed his button down shirt, wrapped it around his hand and tried various car doors in the parking lot. Garcia then went into the mall, where undercover detectives continued to watch him, police said. He later exited the mall and found an unlocked car around 4 p.m. As Garcia was rummaging through the center console, officers came over and arrested him.

EDITORIAL By C. Ron Allen
We’ve Made Progress, Still There’s More Work to be Done Just last week, I joined thousands in our community to observe the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday. It was a weekend punctuated with ecumenical services, banquets, breakfasts, sporting events, marches, walks and a rally. I am sure there were even the usual barbeques. There were the usual speeches at all the events. But as happened with some commemorations of Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream” speech at the 50th anniversary of the 1963 March on Washington, celebrating the progress our society has made in the area of civil rights can obscure the full measure of Dr. King’s message. I think too often, we lose sight of the fact that Dr. King’s work as a minister and civil rights leader not only promoted the cause of racial equality, but also challenged us to address the prevalence of poverty in our country. While we as residents may not be equipped to solve all of the problems confronting society or the poor, we all have the ability, the responsibility, and might I also add moral obligation to do our part to answer Dr. King’s call to do something for others. Individually and collectively,
our efforts can produce positive change. The Martin Luther King, Jr. federal holiday is the only federal holiday observed as a national day of service. It has been called “a day on, not a day off.” The holiday is past but the need still exists. Right here in our communities there are ample opportunities to lend a hand. There are soup kitchens that have room for a few helpers, mentoring programs that need caring volunteers, neighborhood parks that need cleaning, sports teams needing coaches and most of all struggling civic and non-profit organizations that need funds. I was left with mixed emotions by the level of participation at the Dr. King observances in our local cities this year. While I must say there was much better participation this year than in previous years. Perhaps the credit is due to the beautiful South Florida weather that we were blessed with this year. Let’s take for example the ecumenical service in Delray Beach on Sunday evening. Except for the three members of the clergy who were part of the organizing committee, there were less than five other clergy members present. Now with more than 80 houses on
worships in Delray Beach - most of them serving people of color - that was dismal especially since the weekend was set aside to honor to efforts of a former member of the clergy. Boca Raton also has its share of worship houses. Yet none was represented at this service. Perhaps they were not invited, maybe they chose not to venture across that city limits unless it’s to go to work, shopping or for entertainment. Whatever the reason was, this has to change. There needs to be a tri-city effort, spearheaded by the clergy to work on making next year’s event a banner year. To follow the Rev. King’s philosophy, if our people are going to move ahead, they need to be led by the clergy. Monday’s observances gave me hope though. The annual breakfast at the Delray Beach Golf Club was once again the highlight of the weekend. The standing roomonly program was comprised of all segments of the community. And those who did not care to be up that early took park in the walk later that day. But what was disturbing to me was once the walkers arrived at the Pompey Park Community Center, the majority chose not to go inside for the culmination program.
www.bocaratontribune.com
The clear message they sent was that, “Oh well, I did my part by walking 30 minutes.” To that I reply, “Dr. King marched miles so we all can enjoy much of the freedoms we share today. The least you could have done was to spend another 30 minutes inside to hear the beautiful program, which included a hearty message by the Mayor Cary Glickstein and a poignant address by Caleb Charles. Depending on how we approach it, this holiday has the potential to be more than just another day off. It is an invitation to look inward and assess our lives. Are we using our gifts to perpetuate goodness? Are we practicing agape, or spiritual love, to live courageously? Dr. King’s dream is still the universalizing impulse of compassion. The remembrance of Dr. King provides us a radical way of moving through crisis and into unbound freedom where we will be redeemed through our resistance to tragedy. As our brother said, “unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.” We still have time to for next year. I will start by inviting at least five people to the local observances. Will you join me and just invite three?

Bright Ideas - Sometimes From Unlikely Sources Suggestion boxes at companies are being replaced by online ideasubmission systems, according to the Wall Street Journal, a respected business periodical. These systems not only receive ideas for changes and new initiatives, but also allow employees the opportunity to comment and vote on suggestions from other staff members. PricewaterhouseCooper s launched an idea-management website that generated 3,300 new ideas. Although the consulting firm has implemented only 140 of those ideas to date, the ones they did put into use have saved the company hundreds of thousands of dollars. The irony is that too often executives call upon outsiders to evaluate business practices, systems and a variety of other factors that affect revenues and expenses, but fail to consider the insiders that could have the greatest insight.
Employees usually know company products and processes better than consultants, since they work with them every day, yet many organizations never ask their staffs for ideas. Years ago, manufacturers implemented “quality circles,” through which the employees most affected by production decisions would have input into actions taken and what conclusions were reached. In many cases employee advisory groups contributed significantly to greater efficiency and economy. It might not be necessary to create quality circles for your organization, but some purposeful way of soliciting and responding to staff input on important organizational and management strategies could pay great dividends. There is a saying that sometimes it is hard to distinguish the forest from the trees, but it might be wise
to periodically consult with those that are most familiar with the “trees.” The Bible has much to say about this approach to business: Do not be too proud to consult with others. Some executives seem to take the attitude that since they are in leadership positions, they should be expected to have all the answers. There is no rule that says that, and wise leaders encourage staff people to offer their perspectives. Proverbs 12:15 teaches, “The way of a fool seems right to him, but a wise man listens to advice.” Be receptive to views from a variety of reliable sources. There are many ways of soliciting valued counsel regarding business plans and key decisions, ranging from idea-submission systems to employee and team meetings. By taking full advantage of people
and ideas available, the likelihood of success is multiplied. “Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed”(Proverbs 15:22). Value the resources available within your own staff. Often the thinking of consultants is given greater weight because of their presumed objective perspectives. However, good stewardship requires proper utilization of the personnel we have within our companies, including involving their insights in critical decisions and practices. “… Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor except in his hometown and in his own household”(Matthew 13:57). Do not overlook the wisdom of your staff. If you make the process easy and open for all, they may have ideas that save you thousands.

POSITIVE LIVING By Dr. Synesio Lyra, Jr.
Keep a Good Conversation Going! Humans are social creatures and, as such, have the opportunity of human interaction with other people. By this means one can impart something good to others while benefitting from the joys of the mutual sharing of ideas, humor, information, and much more! In most instances, it’s always great to talk, on account of the countless benefits which this activity always affords to those involved in such exchanges. Yet, conversation is not just a repetition of words on any given subject, or several. A person may talk in the direction of another without being engaged in real conversation. The topic needs to be of common
interest to those involved in conversation. In life, even for the most customary activities, one is expected to follow certain procedures, even rules, if the best results are to be experienced. This is most true with conversations as it is with matters of even greater significance! In my title above, I allude to “a good conversation.” That means that there also exist “bad” conversations – those which don’t get off the ground, or others which get nowhere, even if started. A conversation should never be a platform for venting personal frustrations, and especially the negativity one may have for
the other, engaged in the same exchange. Obviously, there may often be unpalatable issues which need to be addressed, and the setting for such can and should be accommodated, just for that purpose. In general, however, a conversation can and should be a pleasant activity, with positive goals pre-established, especially a sound impact which the life of each participant should gain. Animosity, usually, accomplishes nothing other than just create more animosity. And when such is the case, the conversation will not achieve anything of value; it must as well stop!
The same can be said about arguing. Although this function has its place, a conversation will not be pleasant when that becomes its primary aim. People who are eager to find reasons to argue about anything, have failed to find more substantive issues to discuss! Develop sound conversation techniques and procedures, and employ them to the best of your ability, for the sake of impacting another life and keeping your own from being unnecessarily affected by the unpleasantness of widely divergent points of view!

St. Moritz Jewel Thief Arrested Boca Raton, FL – On Thursday, January 9, a male entered St Moritz Jewelry Store, 21310 St. Andrews Boulevard at about 1:30 p.m., and stole an engagement ring and tennis bracelet. The theft was caught on video. On Thursday, January 16, a warrant for a home invasion robbery case was executed in unincorporated Boca Raton. Nicholas Maida was arrested for that crime. Maida not only matched the description of the suspect in the jewelry theft, but a detective recognized Maida as the offender of another jewelry store
theft. The previous theft occurred in 2008 at another jewelry store in the same area and the jewelry was taken in same manner. When questioned by detectives Maida said, “There is a lot of people who look like me.” One detective recalled that when Maida was arrested for the 2008 jewelry theft, he told detectives the very same thing. Detectives met with Maida’s father and Maida’s girlfriend, both who identified Nicholas as the person seen in the St. Mortitz video of the theft. Detectives charged Maida with grand theft.
Alert Citizen and Off Duty Boca Raton Officer Spot Car Burglar Boca Raton, FL – Just before 3:00 pm Wednesday on January 22, 2014, Boca Raton Police received a call from someone at the Town Center Mall who was watching a suspicious man in the parking lot trying to open the doors to several cars. A Boca Raton Officer, working an extra duty detail, responded and quickly located the subject, later identified as Joel Garcia. The officer kept eyes on Garcia until Tactical Team officers arrived on scene. Once on scene, the officers observed Garcia remove his button down shirt, wrap it around his hand and continue trying various car doors in the parking lot. After approximately 45 minutes, Garcia went into the mall, where undercover
detectives continued to watch him. A short time later Garcia exited the mall into the parking lot where he continued to try car doors. Shortly after 4:00 pm, an hour after he was first observed, Garcia found and entered an unlocked car. Tactical Team officers approached the vehicle and observed Garcia rummaging through the center console. Officers ordered Garcia out of the car and placed him under arrest. Garcia told officers that he was going through rough times and had ridden on a bus from Canal Point, Florida with the intent to break into cars and steal money. Garcia was charged with Burglary to Auto and Possession of Marijuana.

Savvy Resident Notifies Police of Burglar Boca Raton, FL – On Wednesday, January 22 at about noon, a resident in the 600 block of SW 5th Street called a Boca Raton Police sergeant and told him a young male wearing a fluorescent traffic vest knocked on his door and asked for a “Mr. Alexander,” and said he was looking for 700 SW 5th Street. The caller described the male and the brown Mercedes, which he had parked in the driveway. Responding officers saw the vehicle in the driveway of 801 Elderberry Way and as it drove away, one officer followed it. The driver drove through the neighborhood, committing several traffic violations before the officer attempted a traffic stop. The driver did not initially stop. However, after driving down several streets, he was forced to stop behind a boat on a trailer, which was obstructing the roadway. Officers made contact with the driver, Dayonte Resiles, who was wearing a bright green shirt
and traffic vest. The story Resiles gave officers for being in the area was quickly disproved. The caller identified Resiles as the male with whom he spoke at his front door. Officers arrested Resiles and charged him with loitering and prowling and resisting arrest without violence. Officers found a window punch in Resiles pocket and black and yellow gloves in the center console of the car. Officers also found a woman’s watch and $1,003 in cash in the center console, as well as a jewelry scale, laptop computer, camera, an iPad, and a large amount of jewelry placed throughout the passenger compartment of the car. Officers confirmed that the items belonged to the resident of 801 Elderberry Way, where officer found the rear slider to the home smashed. The resident identified the items as hers. Officers also charged Resiles with burglary to a residence, possession of burglary tools and obstruction.

The officer watched as Resiles committed several traffic violations and then attempted to pull Resiles over in a traffic stop. However, Resiles didn’t immediately stop and started driving down other streets. He was finally forced to stop behind a boat on a trailer which was blocking the roadway, police said. Officers spoke with Resiles and the story Resiles gave officers for being in the area did not match up, police said. Officers found a window punch in Resiles’ pocket and black and yellow gloves in the center console of the car. Officers also found a woman’s watch and $1,003 in cash in the center console, as well as a jewelry scale, laptop computer, camera, an iPad, and a large amount of jewelry placed throughout the passenger compartment of the car.

See “Parade” and Gain Understanding
By: Skip Sheffield It sounds like a rather dubious premise for a musical. Man is unjustly accused of a heinous murder. Same man is exonerated of charges, yet falls victim to bigoted vigilantes. Surprise, “The Parade” has its lovely and loving moments and is always riveting entertainment. Slow Burn Theatre presents this littleknown 1998 Tony Award-winning Broadway musical through Feb. 9 at West Boca Raton High School Auditorium. The book, by Alfred Uhry and Jason Robert Brown, is based on the true-life incident that rocked Atlanta in 1913. A man named Leo Frank, who managed a pencil factory, was accused of raping and murdering one of his employees, a girl named Mary Phagan. She was just short of her 14th birthday. Thanks to an
Boca Life & Arts
over zealous, politically ambitious prosecutor named Hugh Dorsey and an anti-Semitic newspaper writer named Tom Watson, the proudly Jewish Leo Frank was railroaded into a guilty verdict. That was not the end of the misfortune that befell Leo Frank, as playwright Alfred Uhry and composer Jason Robert Brown meticulously recount in words and music. “The Parade” ran just 84 performances on Broadway, but courageous regional theater companies such as Slow Burn have breathed new life into the show. “The Parade” is indeed a show, directed and choreographed with compassion and understanding by Patrick Fitzwater, with precise musical accompaniment of challenging songs by Manny Schvartzman, lighting by Lance Blank, sets by Sean McClelland and costumes by Rick Pena. E q u i t y professional Tom Anello stars as Leo Frank, and in her first major starring role Ann Marie Olson plays his loyal wife Lucille. The mood is set with the “Prologue: The Old Red Hills of Home.” The parade of the title
is to honor Confederate soldiers. These folks are proud of their rebel heritage, and they don’t much cotton to Jew boys from New York City like Leo Frank. Though Lucille is also Jewish, she is a daughter of the South. Despite her best diplomatic efforts she cannot overcome the blind bigotry and hatred of Southerners still bitter about losing the Civil War. Though the plot is dire, there are rays of light and hope in some of the tender ballads sung beautifully by Leo and Lucille and the marvelous Slow Burn chorus. Slow Burn co-artistic director Matthew Korinko plays the role of despicable villain Hugh Dorsey. He does not make him a cardboard villain, but h i m s e l f a victim of blind ambition. Even more villainous is hatemongering writer Tom Wat s o n , played by Rick Pena doing triple
www.bocaratontribune.com
duty. The always entertaining Jerel Brown also does triple duty in three widely contrasting roles. The good news about the Leo Frank-Mary Phagan tragedy is that it led to the founding of the Jewish Anti-Defamation League. The local ADL in fact held a talk-back after the first Sunday matinee. Though it is dark and challenging, “The Parade” is educational and provocative. It is yet another amazing show done by one of most daring, resourceful theater companies in South Florida. Tickets are $40 adults, $35 seniors and $25 students. Call 866811-4111.

Are You Eating the Food or the Sauce?
The “Aftermath” of Evil By Skip Sheffield “Aftermath” is set in 2000, but the story, inspired by Jan Gross’ “Neighbors,” is firmly rooted in the Holocaust of World War II. More than any other country, Poland was affected by the Nazi persecution of Jews. There once were 3 million Jews in Poland. A large number of those were part of the 6 million or more souls lost to the Holocaust. Co-written and directed by Wladyslaw Pasikowski in 2012, “Aftermath” tells the back story of 120 of those souls in a small Polish town. Pasikowski fashions the story as a mystery-thriller centered on brothers Franciszek (Ireneusz Czop) and Jozef (Maciej Stuhr) Kalina. Franciszek had left the town and fled to America 20 years ago, after the death of his father. Jozef remained in Poland, tending the family farm. The film begins with the return of Franciszek to his home town to investigate strange circumstances involving his brother. Shortly after disembarking the bus, Franciszek’s luggage is stolen. It is a sign of more trouble to come. Josef is in trouble with local authorities for destroying a road. The reason Josef ripped off the asphalt was that he discovered the road’s foundation was made with tombstones from a now-vanished Jewish cemetery. Though Josef is a devout Catholic, his moral outrage is such that he has taken it
January 31, through February 06, 2014
upon himself to save and restore the tombstones and recreate the cemetery. This does not set well with the villagers. “Accidents” begin to happen to the Kalina brothers. When it comes time to harvest the wheat the community’s harvester is mysteriously “broken.” When the brothers decided to harvest the wheat the old-fashioned way, by hand, the field catches fire. As the hostility of the villagers rises, so does the animosity between the two brothers. If it weren’t for the town’s kindly, tolerant older priest (Jerzy Radziwilowiez) the Kalina brothers would have no friends at all. The truth is the town holds a terrible secret, and Jozef ’s mission to make reparations to murdered Jews threatens to expose that secret. “Aftermath” is quite controversial in Poland and banned outright in some places because it is perceived as antiPolish. The truth of the matter is the Nazis were not the only villains in the Holocaust. They were aided and abetted by sympathizers and people fearful for their own self-preservation. An evil as monstrous as the Holocaust was, it tainted all around it. Rather than being anti-Polish, this film screams “Never again!”

Sauces have been used for centuries to make unpalatable food tasty. The French while under siege would use them to make rotten meat edible. That is why the French are so good at making delicious sauces. They had lots of practice. If you cannot eat a hamburger and French fries without ketchup and mustard, than are you really eating the sauces or the entree? If I do not have the two sauces, I do not want the entrée. So for me, all I have to do is ration the sauce and the entrée goes with it. How about pasta? Can you eat it with nothing not even butter on it? How about your favorite salad, can you eat it without dressing? Just reduce the sauce and see what happens to your appetite. If you do this you will more than likely reduce your portion size. You will also find many flavors that you never noticed as the sauces were covering them up as they were
supposed to. Think about what you are putting on your food. Do you typically put a lot of sauce on steak, or can you eat it with nothing added? Most people eat it with a little salt and pepper. Try cutting back just little and see how it changes things. Most calories come from the dressing or sauces. The more you understand what you are eating and why, the easier it will be to make small changes that have big long term effects. Remember it only takes 100 extra calories a day to gain about 10 pounds a year. So if you reduce you food by 100 calories a day for a year there goes about 10 pounds. One slice of white bread is 87 and two tablespoons of sugar in your coffee is 98 calories. If you would like your own questioned answered just email me at finefitness@att.net

Ponies and Players at International Polo Club Palm Beach
By Skip Sheffield High-goal professional polo is no longer played in Boca Raton, but it is alive and well at an even higher level at the International Polo Club Palm Beach, 3667 120th Ave. South, Wellington. 2014 20-goal tournament play happens at 3 p.m. every Sunday through April 20. Teams are competing for the Ylivisaker Cup, named for former Yale Polo Team captain and Palm Beach Polo and Country Club founder Bill Ylivisaker, continuing through the month of February. March 2 the USPA C.V. Whitney Cup, named in memory of Cornelius Vanderbilt “Sonny” Whitney and his cousin John Hay Whitney, will be decided. March 9-23 will be play for the 26-goal Piaget USPA Gold Cup, which has been hosted at the IPC since 2007. March 30-April April 20 is the big enchilada: the Maserati U.S. Open Polo Championship, which dates back to 1904. It has been played at the IPC since 2004.
The very best polo players in the world compete at the International Polo Club, yet general admission is just $10, to encourage public participation. Polo is played on a field 300 yards long and 160 yards wide, which is the largest field in any organized sport. There are six seven-minute, 30-second chukkers in a game, with a brief halftime intermission, at which time spectators are invited to walk the field and stomp down divots in the turf made by the horses hooves. There are four players on a team, with positions 1 and 2 attacking, No. 3 midfield and No. 4 defense. Handicaps in polo range from -2 to 10 goals, which is the highest rating. There are more 10-goal players competing at IPC than anywhere in the world. The photos accompanying this story were shot by Mike Gora at the finals of the Joe Barry Memorial Cup Jan. 26. Valiente emerged victorious over Tonkawa 13-8. See page B4 for photos

This reading activity was only one part of Santaluces’ Literacy week which also included a “Bookmark Photo Op,” bookthemed door decorating, a book swap between students, public library card distribution from the Palm Beach County Library System and a school-wide hour of reading called “Drop Everything and Read (for student and teachers)” and reading themed games during lunch. “I love when our students are able to take our message beyond our four walls,” assistant principal Amanda Orndorff said. “In this case, encouraging younger students that reading is important at all stages of life and to get them reading as early as possible.” Santaluces High School looks forward to opportunities like this to work with other schools, she said.

Robert Campbell: From Pittsburgh Boy To Boca’s Go-To Shoe Guy
By Quezia Salgado The Shoe Industry is made up of hundreds of manufacturers, wholesalers, and retailers. Among them, BBC International stands out as a prominent footwear sourcing agent, representing the largest providers and specialty brands in the world, for more than 30 years. This long history of success is undoubtedly due to the hard work and efforts of BBC’s incredible team, but none of it would have been possible without the boldness of its CEO and founder Robert B. Campbell. On a recent interview with Mr. Campbell, the Boca Tribune was able to find out a bit more about this incredible man, who has made such a difference in the community. As a child, growing up in Pittsburgh with his mother and three sisters, the idea of owning a multi-million dollar company, was far from Robert’s mind. For six years, they lived in the attic of his grandmother’s house, while his mother worked at his grandpa’s bakery – the same bakery where Robert started working at the age of 9. “My mother did nothing but work hard; she was amazing and taught us all about respect and ethics, and raised us in a good Christian family.” Despite their humble beginnings, Robert says his family never knew the word “poor”; they never thought of themselves as poor, “We always knew we were a lucky and happy family”. After his mother remarried, Robert and his family moved to Detroit when he was 15 years old. There Mr. Campbell attended Cass Tech High School, which was rated the country’s #1 tech school at the time. At Cass Tech, Robert was involved with music and athletics, playing in the concert band and football team. During his junior year he started working part-time at a local Kinney Shoe store, where his career started. Robert made $35 that first week, but his true goal was to make $100, “I never had a goal about being rich because I thought I was rich; making $100 a week at 16 years old, I thought that was the greatest thing in the world.” Robert was quickly promoted to store manager, and later regional buyer and started traveling all over the States doing special buys for Kinney. By 1963 Bob became a buyer for F.W. Woolworth, which was Kinney’s parent company at the time; there he worked for 9 years, traveling the world as the Developing Director

of Footwear. The bureaucracy of big companies became too stressful for Robert, so in 1975 he founded BBC International. He started by himself, with only one secretary, and a few good people who were a great help in encouraging Bob, and are considered mentors to him. One of those was Cam Anderson – founder of Footlocker – “I worked directly with him in Chicago and every time I needed help with anything he was there for me.” Another one of Bob’s mentors was Harvey Levy, from Pagoda International, “…he was my competitor, but he said: ‘If you need any help, let me know.’” Although Robert never had a life plan he always knew that if he focused on something and worked hard at it, he would be successful: “My only ambition was to work hard, get ahead, and I knew it would pay off; I just always felt confident about that; I was never afraid of failure.” This same confidence is what makes Mr. Campbell such an important part of the Boca community. For many years, he has been involved in several charities and organizations, among which is the Boca Historical Society and Museum – the official organizer of the Bacchanal Wine & Food Festival. Robert has attended the festival every year since its inception, 12 years ago, and for 2014 he was named Honorary Chair of the event, “I think the Bacchanal does fabulous things for the town, and what I like most is that it’s a local event, it stays within the community.” Those interested in attending the Bacchanal have to go through the Boca Historical Society to purchase tickets, and should hurry because this year’s promises to be one for the memories. With such a record of achievements, not to mention all the awards received for his charity contributions, Robert Campbell’s example is one worth imitating. From a young kid working at a bakery, to multi-millionaire business owner, Robert’s life is a demonstration of what someone can accomplish if they work hard and remain humble and grateful. His advice to young entrepreneurs is simply: “Work hard, have a goal, and don’t complain!” At 76 years old, Mr. Campbell’s energy and passion for his work remain unchanged; he is undoubtedly a living legend, whose legacy will live on for years to come.

When in Rome…Start a Production Company 360˚ is created in such a format that is looks at these churches from a 360˚ angle. Each episode covers a specific church and its neighborhood, and is split into four groups: the facts, the fantasy, the faith and the fun. With 15 episodes ready to go, negotiations are underway to broadcast the series. Another exciting series currently in production is Vino Veritas (Latin for “In wine there is truth”), a half hour show split into three sections which include visits to a vineyard, a restaurant or spa, and someone’s home. The shows produced by 3 Amici deal with not only history and culture, but also with themes that are a part of everyone’s life, which is the case with Frequent-Sea Electronics, a boat show hosted by Jonathan Weisser, a boat electronics expert. In Frequent-Sea, the audience can take a look at boating in South Florida through the eyes of J.W., and tag along with him as he Jordan Ackerman,Jonathan Resnick, Tom Shaker, Vickie Sanderson, Lee Zoretic fixes everything from a 25-foot boat to say, after about five minutes of in someone’s backyard, to a Russian By: Quezia Salgado Nearly everyone has had at talking, the two hit it off, realizing millionaire’s yacht. some point in life a History teacher they had many things in common, The success experienced by who showed educational videos in including their love of movies.

As 3 Amici’s was only natural. The truth is, while had a proposition, “Buy me a really CFO, Vickie runs all the financials those videos contain extremely nice cigar and I’ll give you another to make sure everyone is always important information, the style in four hours of the rest of Rome.” on the same page.

Homes Inside and Joshua Carlson Out Using Your Money Wisely to Purchase a Home: Part 3 Setting, Estimating, Analyzing and Planning/Creating…what’s next you ask? The last couple of weeks we have been discussing how to properly prepare for one of the biggest financial decisions you will ever make…purchasing a home! After you have created your budget you are going to want to begin the next step… STEP 5: IMPLEMENTING A RECORD KEEPING SYSTEM: The reason for analyzing and planning your future spending is to help you take control of your spending habits. In order to track your finances you must keep record of it. Keep all receipts, both cash and credit, in a file or pocket folder and invest in a small filing cabinet to stay organized. STEP 6: ANALYZING SPENDING RECORDS AND ADJUSTING ALONG THE WAY: This is where you compare actual spending versus estimated spending and figure out where the differences are so you can make the necessary adjustments. Do this on a daily if not weekly basis so you can stay on target. These last 2 steps are an ongoing process. Always keep in mind you want to spend less than you make. When you have developed a habit
of saving money and you get some budgeting experience under your belt, it is then you are able to focus on saving money to buy your new home. There are 2 different types of costs, one-time costs and long-term costs associated with home ownership. First it is important to get the skills of creating and mastering your budget then we will tackle those different costs. I would like to end this series with 2 of my favorite quotes when it comes to budgeting… Luke 14:28-30 – “Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Will he not first sit down and estimate the cost to see if he has enough money to complete it? For if he lays the foundation and is not able to finish it, everyone who sees it will ridicule him, saying, `This fellow began to build and was not able to finish.’” (NIV Bible) “The amount of money you have has got nothing to do with what you earn. People earning a million dollars a year can have no money and people earning $35,000 a year can be quite well off. It’s not what you earn, it’s what you spend. “ Paul Clitheroe Just remember… No matter what age you are, it is never too late to start budgeting. Stay Tuned…

FAITH
DIVORCE FLORIDA STYLE
By Robert J. Tamasy
By Mike Gora
No Job For 'The Lone Ranger' We sometimes hear people make this statement: “Life is a marathon, not a sprint.” And there’s much truth to that. Many people can look good for a short distance. In fact, in a sprint even a slower person might take the lead for a step or two. But a successful life is not measured in minutes or hours, days or even weeks, but in years. A good start does not guarantee a good finish. However, comparing life to a marathon falls short in one respect. In a marathon, runners compete alone. There might be people along the course to cheer and encourage, and perhaps volunteers offering water or other refreshment. But for the most part, marathon runners engage in a solitary pursuit – perseverance, pushing through pain for the joy of reaching the finish line…alone. In real life, however, no one reaches goals or achieves success on their own. Especially the most successful people. Celebrated executives, accomplished physicians, notable inventors, the most famous athletes and entertainers might have had visions and dreams, and worked hard to refine their skills and talents, but they all needed help along the way. Years ago, one of the most popular American TV shows was “The Lone Ranger.” It featured a lone crusader against crime, determined to right what was wrong and bring bad people to justice. He did have a faithful companion named Tonto, but the Lone Ranger would suddenly ride into a town, take on the criminals and overcome them, and just as suddenly depart without even saying good-bye. The town’s citizens would look at each other and
ask, “Who was that masked man?” History teaches that trying to succeed as a “lone ranger” in the business and professional world is a recipe for failure, even disaster. We all need accountability, administrative support, encouragement, help from people with experience and expertise different from ours to reach our objectives. The Bible speaks much about this. For example: Strength in numbers. Teamwork and mutual support are hallmarks for success in any endeavor. “Two are better than on, because they have a good return for their work. If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!... A cord of three strands is not quickly broken” (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12). “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds” (Hebrews 10:24-25). Sharpening of focus. Just as the edges of two knives can be sharpened by being rubbed together, people can sharpen one another as they also “rub against each other” as they work together, often resulting in creative and constructive friction. “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another” (Proverbs 27:17). Diversity in capabilities. We each have unique abilities and talents, and by merging them and working together, we can accomplish far more than we ever could working alone. “There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men” (1 Corinthians 12:4).
Grandparents’ Rights Q. I was visiting with my trust and estate lawyer last week, and asked him whether, as a grandparent, I had rights to see my grandchildren, after the children’s parents were divorced. He told me that I had rights under a Florida Statute752.01. I remembered that you wrote a column some time ago in which you said that there were no longer grandparent visiting rights in Florida. My son and his wife divorce some time ago. My son moved to Los Angeles, my daughter-in-law remained here with the children. We used to see the kids all the time. Now she won’t permit it. Do grandparents have visitation rights under 752.01, or not? A. In 1996 the Florida Supreme Court declared that Florida Statute 752.01 was unconstitutional on its face, and refused to enforce it under facts similar to yours. In reaching this conclusion the Court cited the United States Supreme Court’s ruling that such laws, granting grand parents legal rights to their grandchildren, constitute state

interference with parental rights granted under the 14th amendment to the United States Constitution, and a violation of the rights of privacy found in the Florida Constitution. Other Florida statutes provide remedies to grandparents and others in the event that the conduct of the children’s natural parents are so damaging that the children are placed in actual danger. That process can lead to termination of parental rights and the substitution of a guardian for the children and their property. The guardian might or might not be a grandparent. A Grandparent, such as you, who tries to bring an action at this time for visitation rights under the long dead 752.01, will be wasting their emotional capital as well as their money. You would probably have to pay the fees of the mother’s attorney. In addition, if you attempt to communicate with the child or the remaining parent you may be sues for damages, an injunction or both.

David Beckham Set to Address Media in Press Conference on Wednesday
By: Pedro Heizer Looks as if there will be a press conference in Miami next week after all. According to Patricia Mazzei of the Miami Herald, Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez confirmed the Wednesday press conference in which soccer superstar David Beckham, and Major League Soccer Commissioner Don Garber will be in attendance as they rally support for a privately funded stadium. The Miami-Dade County mayor's office says negotiations began this week with David Beckham's group, Miami Beckham United, over a potential Major League Soccer stadium site in Miami. Earlier this month, Commissioner Garber acknowledged Miami's bid but also stated the league would only return to Miami if the situation was ideal. "There's a lot of work that needs to happen," Garber said. "We can't go to Miami without the
right stadium solution. David understands that. The city understands that. That's an indisputable fact. We can't have different rules in Miami than we have in any other city. We want to do as much as we can to work with David and Simon Fuller to get something done as quickly as we can." On Tuesday, representatives from Miami B e c k h a m United ran down a list of over 30 possible sites for a soccerspecific stadium in the region in a meeting that lasted over three hours with Mayor Gimenez. Upon the end of the meeting, Mayor Gimenez said they had narrowed it down to five "viable" sites for the potential soccer stadium, with the county-owned land at PortMiami still the group’s top choice for a stadium. Beckham’s group has promised that the stadium will be 100 percent privately funded, and Gimenez said in November that Dade County could lease county-owned land at the PortMiami site in Biscayne Bay to team owners, who would then build a stadium themselves. Despite the set press conference for next Wednesday, it must be noted that the presser could be nothing more than a "What you must do for MLS to return" message. Garber and MLS officials have done similar press conferences in New York and Orlando before those cites were awarded teams.
Raickovic’s Double-Double Can’t Lift Men’s Basketball over Saint Leo Sophomore Pavle Raickovic had an outstanding night on the home court of the de Hoernle Center with 12 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks but couldn’t help Lynn University’s men’s basketball team prosper over Saint Leo (16-4, 4-3 SSC) on Saturday night. The Blue & White fell, 78-64, in the Sunshine State Conference matchup and stand at 7-10 overall and 1-6 in conference play. The Fighting Knights were led offensively by Aaron Harrison who had 18 points while the Lions’ Jerrel Harris had a game-high 23 points. The two teams battled throughout the opening half, with the lead changing three times. Lynn’s largest lead game at the 17 minute mark when Raickovic had a tip-in to give the Fighting Knights an early 6-2 lead. Saint Leo took the lead at 9:47 when Ryan Wilson made two shots from the charity line. Seconds later Devin Crisosto hit a trey to lead by four. Lynn kept pace with the visitors until the Lions finished the half on a 7-2 run
to lead 34-25 at halftime. Lynn trailed by 13 points for the opening minutes of the second half but Saint Leo took its largest lead by 17,54-37, with 10:40 remaining in regulation. The Fighting Knights continued to pressure as the clock ticked down but SLU capitalized on 25-of-29 free throw shots in the half. Brandon Smith cut Lynn’s deficit to nine with 34 seconds remaining but the Lions held off the late surge for the win. Harrison scored 10 of his 18 points in the second half while Fred Landers followed close behind with eight points. The visitors shot 66.7 percent from behind the arc in the game while holding Lynn to just 20 percent from downtown. Lynn shot 38.5 percent from the field while out-rebounding SLU 36-26. The Lions connected on 36of-43 free throw shots while the Blue & White shot 90 percent from the charity stripe. As a team the Fighting Knights blocked a seasonhigh six shots while having just 10 turnovers.
FAU's Bertone And Smith Earn Student-Athlete Of The Week Honors Florida Atlantic University’s Pablo Bertone of men’s basketball and Kimberly Smith of women’s basketball have earned StudentAthlete of the Week honors. Bertone scored 17 points in a 68-53 win over Harvard on Jan. 21, one of the biggest wins in school history. In the Owls’ game on Jan. 25 against FIU, he scored all 19 of his points in the second half and had three steals in a 66-57 loss. For the week, the senior averaged 18 points per game and shot 50 percent from the three-point line. Smith, a senior, led FAU in
rebounding, averaging eight boards per game this week. She connected on six three-pointers, extending her streak to 23 games with a three-pointer made. Smith did not commit a single turnover in her 71 minutes on the court. She made a three-pointer at the buzzer at L.A. Tech on Jan. 22 to put FAU within one point in a 64-63 loss. She is on pace to set the FAU record for most three-pointers made in a season. Smith went on to record 17 points in FAU’s 82-69 win over North Texas on Jan. 25.

2014 Lynn Men's Tennis Season Preview After making its 11th consecutive NCAA Tournament in 2013, the Lynn University men’s tennis team looks to return to the national spotlight this season. Picked No. 4 in the Intercollegiate Tennis Association preseason poll this past fall, head Coach Mike Perez has planned a competitive non-conference schedule for 2014. Returning just four members from last year’s Sunshine State Conference runner up squad including All-SSC selections Vlad Cirla and Pavel Mojha, this season looks to be promising. Cirla posted an 11-7 singles record last season and was named to the ITA AllAmerica Team as a junior. Mojha had an impressive rookie season for Lynn, posting an 18-2 singles record near the bottom of the lineup. Also returning for the Fighting Knights is captain Alessio Iannozzi and sophomore Giulio Gomba. Iannozzi put together an 11-8 record, going 3-2 in SSC play, and a 12-3 mark playing as the number three doubles team. Gomba played in just nine matches for the Blue & White but put together a 6-1 doubles record with Cirla in the number three spot, including 3-0 in conference play. With the addition of seven new members, Coach Perez has high hopes for this team. Roman Turtygin, a graduate student from
Novosibirsk, Russia will bring experience to this young squad while Thomas Prokop and Daniel Riggs bring a high-tennis IQ as they fight for a spot in the lineup. Also looking to make an impact for Lynn is Javier Anegon, Ethan Itzkovitz, Zdenek Sevik and Paolo Volpicelli. Itzkovitz ranked amongst the top-20 junior tennis players in Canada and had a successful high school career at American Heritage in Delray Beach, Fla. Volpicelli has already proved his ability this fall after defeating No. 2 seed, Aloua Adjenak of Saint Leo, in the second round of the ITA South Regionals. The season kicks off on Monday, February 3, when the Fighting Knights host St. Thomas at 5 p.m. Conference play begins shortly after when the Blue & White host Eckerd and No. 8 Saint Leo on February 15 and 16. Lynn will look for revenge against No. 3 West Florida on March 11, at 2 p.m. The Argonauts defeated the Fighting Knights, 5-4, in the 2013 South Region Finals. A late season trip to Savannah, Ga., will test the Blue & White when they play No. 2 Armstrong Atlantic, who finished as the national runners up last season, and No. 10 Columbus State. Lynn will face-off against rival and defending national champions Barry on April 6, in the regular season finale.
Strikers sign German Bundesliga veteran Oka Nikolov for the Spring campaign The Strikers today announced 414 appearances, including 229 in
the signing of goalkeeper Oka Nikolov for the 2014 Spring season. The 39 year old, 6’2” keeper played for Eintracht Frankfurt of the German Bundesliga for 19 years. The terms of his agreement were not disclosed. “I am very happy to sign with the club,” said Nikolov. “The Fort Lauderdale Strikers have a great history, having seen some great German players such as Gerd Müller play with the club. I want to help the team with my experience and look forward to joining them for their Spring campaign.” Nikolov spent 19 years with Eintracht Frankfurt, signing with them in 1994. He tallied a total of
FAU Baseball Picked Second In Preseason Poll, Gomber Named To Preseason All-Conference The Florida Atlantic University baseball team has been predicted to finish second in the 2014 Conference USA standings, as selected by league coaches. FAU ace Austin Gomber was named to the preseason All-Conference team in FAU’s first season in the league. The Owls finished 42-22 in 2013 and advanced to their 10th NCAA Regional appearance. FAU forced extra innings against the No. 1-seed North Carolina before falling to the Tarheels in the championship game. “We are looking forward to
our first go around in Conference USA,” said FAU Head Coach John McCormack. “It is nice that the other coaches see our program as a good addition to the league.” Gomber, a 6-foot-5-inch southpaw, returns after a sensational sophomore campaign. His 8-4 record led FAU and his ERA of 2.97 led the Sun Belt Conference. Gomber tallied 103 strikeouts and walked just 28 in his 106 innings of work. “That is a great honor for Austin,” McCormack said. “He has worked hard and deserves it.”

the Bundesliga. Nikolov, who was born in Erbach, Germany, but has dual citizenship, also appeared for Macedonia’s national team five teams during his stellar career. “When you have an opportunity to sign a goalkeeper of Nikolov’s stature, you jump on it,” said Strikers Managing Director Tim Robbie. “We’re very excited to have him join our club. He will be a tremendous asset not only to the Strikers, but to the entire NASL as well.” After retiring from the Bundesliga, Nikolov spent last season with the Philadelphia Union of the MLS. www.bocaratontribune.com

Lynn Hosts Successful Seventh Annual Family Fun Day By Chad Beattie BOCA RATON, Fla. – It was a beautiful South Florida afternoon and thousands came out for Lynn University’s successful Seventh Annual Family Fun Day. This nationally-recognized community engagement event brought over 2,000 families on to campus for a free day filled with obstacle courses, bounce houses, rock climbing walls, face painting, food trucks and soccer and lacrosse camps. “Wow, what a fantastic day this was,” said Alex Perez, Family Fun Day organizer and Director of Marketing and Corporate Relations for Lynn University. “Families were coming from all over Palm Beach and Broward Counties for this great event. It is so nice to get our local businesses exposure and give a hassle-free day to families to have fun and relax at.” Family Fun Day once again featured the ‘Mini Knights Challenge Fun Run’ where kids ran a quarter-mile obstacle course and received a medal and free T-shirt upon completion. Lynn’s student-athlete population came out in full force to support, signing autographs, assisting at all the game stations and even helping out in personal clinics. New to Family Fun Day was the inaugural lacrosse clinic, where
over 100 kids came out to learn the fundamentals of the newest college sport in South Florida. Lynn’s soccer team’s followed with its annual clinic for boys and girls of all ages. In addition to bounce houses and clinics, there were special appearances by Ronald McDonald, the Florida Panthers, PBS Kids, Boca Raton Police, SWAT and Fire Departments and food trucks. The NCAA recently announced Lynn’s Family Fun Day as the Division II Community Engagement Award of Excellence winner for the Sunshine State Conference. This award recognizes institutions that successfully ‘build bridges’ with communities in which they are located. The Lynn University Family Fun Day was created in 2008, in response to the NCAA Division II community engagement initiative. Dr. Rich Luker formulated the idea based on statistics showing that the United States is approximately a 78% service driven economy and there is no longer an economically derived reason for institutions or organizations to get together socially. The goal of this event, and the initiative, is to provide a place for the community to get together and have a good time.
