Community Global Leadership Summit Returns to Boca Raton

The Global Leadership Network is prepared to host its 25th annual Global Leadership Summit, which will begin on Thursday, August 8 and be simulcast live in Boca Raton. With over 500 attendees last year, Boca Raton Community Church will once again be one of the 600 sites across the country to take part in the two-day summit, which will provide leadership training from 14 diverse members of the 2019 faculty. GLN believes that everyone has influence and that Christians who are equipped with leadership abilities are able to transform their communities and they handpick each member based on their innovative approaches, expertise, and overall success. This year’s speakers will include Aja Brown, Mayor of the City of Compton, and Endeavor’s Chief Marketing Officer, Bozoma Saint John. Others include senior pastor of Life.Church, Craig Groeschel, TV host, Bear Grylls, and Jason Dorsey, president of The Center for Generational Kinetics. Bill Mitchell, the senior pastor of Boca Raton Community Church, is excited to be able to host the Global Leadership Summit for a second year and thinks it will do a lot to help people become stronger Christian leaders. “We love seeing leaders in South

Florida get better, and we believe they will get better at The Summit,” he said. “We know this will be a transformational event for all ages, even for those that don’t consider themselves leaders yet. Leadership is influence, and everyone has influence.” Not only will attendees be able to watch the broadcast of the summit and learn from the various speakers, but it will also be a time for local networking opportunities with those in the Boca Raton community. The GLN also feels that it is much more convenient for people to gain these learning opportunities in a setting close to home, without all of the costs for travel. “We have participants registered from 60 different organizations throughout South Florida from non-profits, hospitals, churches, hotels, financial institutions and more,” added Cameron Free, the Summit Point Leader. “We started hosting in 2018 and have seen so many positive outcomes in our community this year and can’t wait to see what happens this year.” Those who wish to attend the Global Leadership Summit at Boca Raton Community Church can register at bocasummit.com.

Local Student Named Gift Of Life Marrow Registry ‘Most Valuable Campus Ambassador Jackson Hillman, a Florida Atlantic University junior, was named “Most Valuable Campus Ambassador (MVC)” by Gift of Life Marrow Registry last night for his outstanding efforts in the community and at FAU recruiting hundreds of potentially life-saving blood stem cell and bone marrow donors to the registry. Hillman, 20, of Boca Raton, Fla., a political science major at FAU, in Boca, was honored for recruiting more than 600 new donors to the registry at 41 drives during the 2018-19 school year. As a Gift of Life Campus Ambassador, Hillman educated and recruited students to complete simple cheek swabs and join the registry, becoming potential life-saving stem cell or bone marrow donor matches for people battling leukemia, lymphoma, sickle cell, and nearly 100 other diseases. Gift of Life recognized Hillman at its Campus Ambassador Symposium, which took place July 28-31, at the Boca Raton Marriott at Boca Center convening student leaders from 103 colleges and universities for education and training in donor recruitment. Transplant doctors seek donors ages 18-35 more than 85 percent of the time, due to clinical reasons that improve transplant outcomes, so Campus Ambassadors play a critical role in facilitating life-saving donor transplants through campus drives. Since launching in 2014, 540 Campus Ambassadors have volunteered more than 20,200 hours to add 42,350

www.bocaratontribune.com

people to the registry. In all, 230 Campus Ambassadors at 103 colleges and universities will host drives and events during the 2019-20 school year. Hillman began volunteering for Gift of Life while still in high school, and visited Gift of Life’s headquarters in Boca Raton to pack swab kits for mailing. He became a Campus Ambassador in July 2018. Hillman led Gift of Life’s 15,000th donor drive since the registry’s founding. He has also helped Gift of Life’s Community Engagement Team with 10 recruitment drives across South Florida, and accompanied staff to key events. “He shares Gift of Life’s story wherever he goes, and is always asking what more he can do to help save lives. He embodies our mission and we value his dedication.” said Gift of Life’s Director of Community Engagement Marti Freund. Hillman is also an active member of FAU’s Hillel of Broward County and Palm Beach, and a member of the National Society of Collegiate Scholars. “What started as a few sessions of packing swab kits turned into a sense of pride for being part of a larger-than-life cause,” said Hillman. “I joined the Campus Ambassador Program because there is no greater sense of fulfillment than improving the welfare of others.”

Engaging a wider range of resources to connect patients with organizations within their community can help transform healthcare and improve overall well-being, according to new research published in the Journal of Business Research by faculty at Florida Atlantic University’s College of Business. The article, “Transforming Community Well-being Through Patients’ Lived Experiences,” introduces the concept of “patient ecosystem management” (PEM), which the authors describe as an organizational process that focuses on treating patients differently in terms of assessing, managing and expanding resources to achieve patient health and well-being goals. “We believe more time needs to be spent, not just by physicians who are time-crunched as it is, but to really develop a team approach to identify what the issues are for individual patients and to connect them to a series of resources outside of maybe the hospital and inside their lived world in order to give them the resources they need to improve,” said Andrew Gallan, Ph.D., lead author of the article and an assistant professor in FAU’s marketing department. Gallan and his co-authors write that a patient-centered model of care, accepted as a policy imperative in the United States, the U.K. and western Europe, could be expanded further, beyond the patient and families, healthcare providers, the community, peers and technology providers. Healthcare executives should consider employing and involving non-healthcare stakeholders and support services within communities, they argue, to help expand patient ecosystems to draw on more resources to improve condition management. Gallan employs qualitative and quantitative methods to conduct his research, analyzing big databases of patient surveys and patients comments, shadowing patients and providers and conducting observations to get to the “truth of the patient perspective.” Training healthcare professionals to work as interdisciplinary teams to understand, assess, and make use of patient ecosystems could improve patients' lived experiences in hospitals, at home and at work, he said.

www.bocaratontribune.com

The researchers offer clinicians and other healthcare practitioners a set of practical guidelines centered on a structured framework of strategies and mechanisms used to make connections within existing ecosystems of individual patients and expand those ecosystems to provide more patient-relevant care within the community-enabled setting. “Healthcare practitioners can rethink traditional approaches used to treat frequent medical conditions,” the article states. “Examples include incorporating video consultations with physicians (or e-visits) into a standard sequence of inperson clinic appointments for diabetes patients; inviting engaged caregivers to share experiences with other patients and caregivers in the same community; designing activities where multiple patients are invited to participate simultaneously, such as midwife-facilitated pregnancy patient group meets; and utilizing technology and distribution networks to enhance access and adherence to medications.” Their framework requires health staff sensitivity training to assess a patient’s experience and complete knowledge of community resources. Patients, caregivers and clinicians need to be engaged, while the role of others, such as community health workers, may need to evolve. These workers must be equipped with sufficient knowledge to deal with a variety of people, symptoms and resources. With every patient presenting a different set of needs and individual situations, healthcare organizations struggle to develop a protocol that allows them be efficient in what they do, but also have customizable components so they can address individual patient needs. At the same time, they’re faced with the challenges of how to improve the health of their community. “So, how do we make that connection?” Gallan said. “This paper is an attempt to help them understand that some investments are needed. We provide some examples and some models to organizations to say if this is the direction you want to go, it’s not like you have to reinvent the wheel. There are organizations that are doing this successfully, and there are some good models for you.”

Boca Raton Regional Hospital Is Once Again the Highest-ranked Hospital in Palm Beach County

Baptist Health South Florida is once again the most awarded healthcare system in South Florida by U.S. News & World Report with 32 high-performing awards in 14 types of care. Boca Raton Regional Hospital is once again the highest-ranked hospital in Palm Beach County, and Baptist Hospital continues to be the highest-ranked hospital in MiamiDade County. Six Baptist Health hospitals— Baptist Hospital, Bethesda Hospital East, Boca Raton Regional Hospital, Doctors Hospital, South Miami Hospital and West Kendall Baptist Hospital—earned a total of 32 high-performing honors in 14 types of care, including: Gastroenterology & GI Surgery, Geriatrics, Neurology & Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, Pulmonology & Lung Surgery, Urology, Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Repair, Heart Bypass Surgery, Heart Failure, Colon Cancer Surgery, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Hip Replacement, Knee Replacement and Lung Cancer Surgery. Baptist Health’s Centers of Excellence – Miami Cancer Institute, Lynn Cancer Institute, Miami Cardiac & Vascular Institute, Lynn Heart & Vascular Institute, Miami Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Institute and Baptist Health Neuroscience Center – were all recognized as high-performing in their respective area of expertise. Baptist Hospital is recognized as having one of the country’s Top 50 orthopedic programs. “It is an honor to again be recognized for the dedication and highquality work of our physicians, nurses and staff members who continuously strive to deliver the best care to each patient they encounter,” said Brian E.

Keeley, president and chief executive officer of Baptist Health. “We’re proud to be named among the best hospitals in our region and in the nation for carrying out our mission of providing excellent service and compassionate care to the communities we serve.” The annual Best Hospitals rankings and ratings, now in their 30th year, are designed to assist patients and their doctors in making informed decisions about where to receive care for challenging health conditions or for common elective procedures. For the 2019-20 rankings and ratings, U.S. News evaluated more than 4,500 medical centers nationwide in 25 specialties, procedures and conditions. In the 16 specialty areas, 165 hospitals were ranked in at least one specialty. In rankings by state and metro area, U.S. News recognized hospitals as high performing across multiple areas of care. “For 30 years, U.S. News has strived to make hospital quality more transparent to healthcare consumers nationwide,” said Ben Harder, managing editor and chief of health analysis at U.S. News. “By providing the most comprehensive data available on nearly every hospital across the United States, we give patients, families and physicians information to support their search for the best care across a range of procedures, conditions and specialties.” The U.S. News Best Hospitals methodologies in most areas of care are based largely on objective measures such as risk-adjusted survival and discharge-tohome rates, volume, and quality of nursing, among other care-related indicators.

EDITORIAL By C. Ron Allen

Coco’s Story is Serving as Encouragement to Local Girls Until her grandmother dragged her to the Pompey Park gymnasium recently, Sheryl Malone knew very little about tennis superstar Cori “Coco” Gauff. “I heard people talking about this young girl who played tennis, but I didn’t know anything more about her, … who she was or where she was from,” the Delray Beach teenager said after meeting the teen champ. “But after what I heard today, she is definitely a good role model and one day, I would like to be just like her.” Malone,14, was among about 130 family, friends and fans who attended Gauff ’s “Welcome home from Wimbledon” celebration inside the gym Saturday evening. The event, which was also attended by Delray Beach Mayor Shelly Petrolia, Deputy Vice Mayor Bill Bathurst, City Commissioner Ryan Boylston and Chief of Police Javaro Sims, was moved indoors at the last minute because of what Gauff ’s aunt, Joi Odom, called “liquid sunshine.” As I scanned the gymnasium, I counted less than 40 young girls under the age of 17. I think that gymnasium should have been packed considering what she represents

to young people in her hometown. “Coco is a huge role model for girls her age and younger. She is showing us girls that anything is possible if we put our minds to it,” said Asianna Livingston, 15, of Delray Beach. “My peers … wish they can be like her because she has accomplished so much at a young age, and the City of Delray Beach is really proud of her.” While visiting Pompey Park recently, I noticed Gauff was speaking to her grandpa, Eddie “Red” Odom, via FaceTime from England. He was telling her how proud he was after she began generating front-page stories and international buzz as the youngest competitor to qualify for the Wimbledon Tennis Championships since 1991. Several kids were holding court around him and asking, “Is that the real Coco?” (Coincidentally, the baseball fields at Pompey Park are named after Odom and are just feet away from the clay tennis courts where Gauff grew up training and the same courts where Venus and her sister Serena Williams spent their formative tween years

practicing in the 1990s.) It was then that it dawned on me that these kids, whom I am certain did not see the match, were witnessing a historic moment. Only days earlier, the 15-year-old had knocked off her longtime hero, Venus Williams, in the first round of Wimbledon, and then beat Magdalena Rybarikova in dominating fashion, before pulling off a comeback over Polona Hercog that will live on in Wimbledon lore. Her victory thrust the country into Cocomania. She became an inspiration to youths all over and urged them to give their best and never give up. “To all the young girls and boys out there, you can do whatever you want as long as you work hard and stay dedicated. The road isn’t always easy,” Coco, who has absolutely nothing to lose and whose confidence is at an all-time high, told the crowd on Saturday. “Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise, not even your parents. It’s ok to be crazy sometimes. Crazy is good.” She added: “A lot of people may say I’m crazy for dreaming so big, but I think you shouldn’t just reach for the sky when you can

reach for the stars. I think the possibilities are endless.” She has learned not to let naysayers on social media affect her performance on the court. And even when she was down by two points, she remained focused and determined, thinking on the advice of the late football coach and principal C. Spencer Pompey, through her grandpa, “Never say die.” I have had the privilege to see Coco off the court and away from the cameras and limelight and she is just like any other teen despite her tennis prowess. In fact, when a reporter asked her how she plans to spend the nearly $200,000 in Wimbledon winnings, with the innocence of a child, she said, “I mean, I can’t buy a car because I don’t drive.” She however said she may buy some hoodies. As you listen to her, you will see that Coco is beyond the fame and gold medals. She is indeed a young woman who cares about all young girls and wants to see them succeed. Her perseverance and positivity are exactly the kind of influence all parents should want in their daughter’s life.

POSITIVE LIVING By Robert J. Tamasy

Making Your Mark Through Mentoring (Part 2) In last week’s edition, I introduced the idea of making a difference – making your mark in the world – through a highly relational, mutually beneficial approach to mentoring. This week I wrap up this discussion, citing additional principles that David A. Stoddard and I developed in our book, The Heart of Mentoring: Ten Proven Principles for Developing People to Their Fullest Potential. As I mentioned, this differs from the typical approach to mentoring in which two individuals are assigned to each other, whether they like it or not. In our view, the best mentoring involves a more seasoned mentor working with a “mentoring partner,” both of them learning from one another. Here are some other basic principles for this approach, along with biblical foundations that support them: Effective mentoring involves character building. Skill training and exchange

August 2 - August 8, 2019

of knowledge can be part of the mentoring process, but it should also aim for the development of the entire person, including character building and imparting values that govern their lives. To be most effective, the mentor must serve as an example of living out these traits. “Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me – put into practice” (Philippians 4:9). Effective mentoring offers comfort and willingness to share the load. Relationships grow through the demonstration of genuine care and concern for one another. A good mentor will want to know how the mentoring partner is doing both professionally and personally; work invariably affects one’s private life, and what is going on in one’s personal life has an impact on their work. “Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ” (Galatians 6:2). Effective mentoring helps others

discover their passion. Sometimes the person being mentored is struggling because he or she is still trying to find their place. Even if they are successful, they might not be engaged in a profession they find fulfilling or meaningful. If personal interests and passions can somehow be aligned with the work they do, they will be able to thrive and become valued contributors wherever they go. The apostle Paul wrote to his protégé, Timothy, “Do not neglect your gift, which was given you through prophecy when the body of elders laid their hands on you” (1 Timothy 4:14). Effective mentoring includes reproduction, resulting in a legacy. Because of all he had gained from his own mentors, Dave Stoddard developed a desire to come alongside others and help them to grow professionally, personally, and spiritually. I have had a similar experience, and view that as part of my own legacy – assisting others,

www.bocaratontribune.com

so they in turn can help others. “And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others” (2 Timothy 2:2). ”I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth” (3 John 4). Even though he departed from this life five years ago, Dave Stoddard’s impact continues through the lives of many men who are having a strong influence in their families, their companies, and other men they are helping to develop through mentoring. A wise man once said the only things that will last for eternity are people and the Word of God. There are few better things we could do than to invest time, energy and resources into other people, helping them to become all they can be. Especially if we do so under the guidance of God and His eternal truth.

The Benefits of Being Authentic

Yaacov Heller’s Open House Party On Sunday I visited Yaacov Heller’s newly renovated Gallery 22 studio for an open house party. Many familiar faces joined the Heller’s to celebrate the opening of the beautiful new studio.

How do you feel when you suspect someone is not being authentic or genuine, when it appears that individual is putting on an act – a “façade” – to make a desired impression with the people he or she is with at the time? Such behavior can sometimes be described as “hypocrisy.” The root of this word comes from the Greek, a term used to identify an actor, someone who wears a mask, as they did in ancient times. When we watch a movie or attend a live theatrical performance, we accept someone doing this because that is the actor’s job. They may portray characters very unlike who they really are, but we understand that is what “acting” is all about. However, witnessing such behavior in everyday life is not as defensible. We want people to be authentic – to say what they truly mean and be who they really are, not to present themselves falsely for a desired effect. We commonly observe this contradiction in the political scene: elected officials and candidates making speeches in which they say what they believe the audience wants to hear. Later, if public opinion polls indicate a shift, they start saying things very different. Of course, this also occurs in the business and professional world. A former CEO of United Van Lines, Rich McClure, candidly shared at one of our events that one day he was talking with some people near his assistant’s desk. After their departure, his assistant said to him, “People can tell when you’re authentic and when you’re not.” This was very convicting for Rich, because the assistant was right. He had just put on a show for these

people, trying to impress them and elicit a certain response. This was obvious to his assistant – and likely to his guests as well. Rich humbly accepted this well-intended rebuke and determined to learn from it and act differently in the future. Being authentic in all of our interactions, whether in the workplace, our homes, or our communities, is not always easy. We want people to think well of us, and it can be tempting to misrepresent ourselves, our companies or our products if it seems this will help in achieving the desired result. However, people can sense a lack of sincerity, when we are not being genuine. “Putting on a mask” in real life can have very detrimental consequences. This is why the Bible often speaks of the importance of being authentic, giving people the assurance that “what you see is what you get.” Psalm 15:1-2 teaches, “Lord, who may dwell in your sacred tent? Who may live on your holy mountain? The one whose walk is blameless, who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from their heart.” Another passage speaks of a benefit of being authentic, warning against trying to mislead or deceive. “The man of integrity walks securely, but he who take crooked paths will be found out” (Proverbs 10:9). In the workplace, regardless of the external circumstances, we should all strive to be known for our authenticity. As Proverbs 24:26 states, “An honest answer is like a kiss on the lips.”

City Council Votes To Construct New Tower Despite Backlash By Israel Fontoura Boca Raton city council members voted 3-2 to approve a plan to construct a 400-foot communication tower to improve public safety, as part of an inter-local agreement between the city and county, last month. The 40-story emergency radio tower will be paid for and owned by the city but managed by the county on the Municipal Golf Course, instead of having two 200-foot towers for both the city and county. Local residents object to the three-million-dollar price tag and question if it’s Boca Raton’s responsibility to pay for the tower. Locals are calling for the tower to be reduced to 200-feet, which in comparison, costs approximately $380,000, according to Ele Zachariades, an urban planning attorney. “What you all do, is really a

third-party transaction. It’s not your money, it’s our money. It’s our money that’s being spent. It’s not your money. It just seems like you guys tend to really just want to spend money, and you wouldn’t want to spend this if it wasn’t coming out of your pocket, personally. But you all get paid at the end of the day, no matter what happens here,” argues Sue Trombino, Boca Raton resident. An online petition created by “Keep West Boca Beautiful” has gained over 800 signatures and specifies that the tower “reduces property values and wastes millions of local tax dollars.” With three existing towers situated between the Turnpike and Glades road, the proposed tower will replace a shorter 40-year-old tower, considered “un-rebuildable” by George Brown, Deputy City Manager. If approved, the project is set to be completed by Oct. 2020.

FAU Names Stephen Silverman, Ed.D. As New Dean Of College Of Education

Florida Atlantic University has announced Stephen Silverman, Ed.D., as its new dean of the College of Education. Silverman will begin in his new role starting today. He brings with him a wealth of experience in the areas of enhancing research infrastructure, developing strong graduate programs, working with accreditation bodies, and collaborating with faculty to promote student success. “I look forward to working with Dr. Silverman as we recruit new students, introduce pedagogical and research innovations, and engage our communities to improve educational quality throughout the South Florida region,” said Bret S. Danilowicz, Ph.D., provost and vice president for academic affairs at FAU. Silverman served as professor of education and senior advisor to the provost for research preparation at Columbia University's Teachers College. He also previously served Teachers College for five years as chair of the Department of Biobehavioral Sciences. Silverman earned his Ed.D. from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst; a M.S. from Washington State University; and a B.S. from Temple University. “I am thrilled to join Florida Atlantic University and the College of Education to work with faculty to pro-

vide first-class undergraduate and graduate education, to expand our knowledge through our scholarship, and influence our fields through our professional service,” Silverman said. The College of Education annually prepares more than 4,000 educators and educational professionals to serve six public school districts, including two of the largest and most demographically diverse districts in the nation, Broward and Palm Beach counties. The college comprises six departments (Communication Sciences and Disorders; Counselor Education; Curriculum, Culture and Educational Inquiry; Educational Leadership and Research Methodology; Exceptional Student Education; and Teaching and Learning) that offer more than 40 undergraduate and graduate degree programs taught by more than 300 faculty and adjunct faculty. Additionally, the college encompasses FAU Lab Schools, a public laboratory school system comprised of A.D. Henderson University School and FAU High School (K-12), a recognized 2018 National Blue Ribbon School of Excellence; Palm Pointe Educational Research School at Tradition; Karen Slattery Educational Research Center for Child Development; and Pine Jog Environmental Education Center.

Gregory School of Pharmacy Offers Postgraduate Residency The Lloyd L. Gregory School of Pharmacy’s competitive residency program is shaping the next generation of innovative pharmacists and educators with a robust range of learning experiences that include service and teaching. Residents at the Gregory School of Pharmacy enjoy a unique mission and vision focused on serving the underserved, the ability to participate in medical mission trips and faith integration, said Dr. Amy Henneman, who directs the pharmacy residency for the first postgraduate year and the ambulatory care residency. Because of the depth of training, pharmacists who have done residencies are prepared to push the practice forward and to teach, she said. “It expands your opportunities,” Henneman Pharm.D. ’09 said. “It qualifies you for a broader set of jobs.” The Gregory School of Pharmacy’s first year of residency offers experience in pharmacy or community pharmacy. The second year of residency offers ambulatory care experience. The pharmacy residency began in 2008 and expanded last year to include the community pharmacy and second-year options. Dr. Erin Dorval directs the community pharmacy residency. The majority of community pharmacy residency experiences are conducted at Atlantis Pharmacy, one block north of JFK Medical Center. Keri DePatis’ first year of residency included practicing ambulatory care in a clinic that offered free medical services to those without insurance. Her patients

were very culturally diverse. “I absolutely loved being in that environment from a clinical care perspective,” said DePatis, who earned her doctor of pharmacy degree from Midwestern University in 2018. “It really broadened my view of healthcare, and it was a faith-based clinic.” First-year postgraduate resident Lauren Roscizewski was attracted to the Gregory School of Pharmacy because of the scope of the residency, which includes both academic and patient care components. Roscizewski earned her doctor of pharmacy degree from the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities this spring. While many residencies take place in one setting or hospital, the Gregory School of Pharmacy’s residents travel to no fewer than three sites, Henneman said. She looks for residents who are interested in serving others, growing and working in both academia and ambulatory care. Community pharmacy resident Jallena Roberts has participated in JFK Medical Center’s meds-to-beds program, in which the hospital pays for the first 30-day supply of medication for patients with no health insurance. She fills the prescriptions at Atlantis Pharmacy, takes them to the hospital and counsels the patients. Roberts, a graduate of the South College School of Pharmacy, said she was drawn to PBA because of how the University gives back. “I feel like PBA really adds focus to building you as a person, not just a resident.”

Lion Country Safari Opens New Attraction By: Robert S Weinroth A new attraction opened today at Lion Country Safari. The Safari Splash waterpark expansion i celebrated its grand opening as county and municipal leaders joined in the celebration. The water park offers visitors a great addition to the walkthrough park. The new 10,568 square foot splash area was a year and a half in the making, extending the 4,000 square foot play area originally opened in 2005. The zebra striped Safari Splash includes several levels of slides, spray guns, water wheels and rain bars. Towering above it all is a 550-gallon drop bucket, which fills with water every three to four minutes before toppling forward and spilling its contents onto a plate that spreads it across nearly the entire structure. The new attraction sits in a wading pool, which, at its deepest point, is 20 inches and nearly three times the size of the existing water play area, accommodating up to 300 guests. This is the third major feature of Lion Country Safari’s water park area,

FAU Undergraduate Admissions Joins the Common Application

adding on to the Safari Splash water spray ground (opened in 2005) and the water slides (opened in 2014). Lion Country Safari’s water park area will now be able to accommodate even more guests for fun on safari. They are committed to providing a fun, family-friendly environment with ample opportunities for adventure. Lion Country Safari is the only drivethrough safari in South Florida. Guests can see over 1,000 animals on 320 acres. The park is also home to the largest herd of zebras on record in the country. Within view is Section One of Lion Country Safari’s drive-through park, where the familiar wild animals tapirs roam making it possible to hang out on the pool deck and still see the animals. Admittance to the new water attraction will be included with paid admission to Lion Country Safari. or with an annual pass. Once guests are finished exploring the adventure park the water park offers a perfect venue to relax and cool off. SplashTacular Waterslides and Waterpark Attractions was responsible for design of the new park feature.. The wading pool was designed and built by Van Kirk & Sons Pools of Palm Beach County.

Florida Atlantic University’s Office of Undergraduate Admissions has joined the Common Application, a powerful online college application platform that serves and supports more than 3 million applicants, teachers and counselors across the United States and around the world every year. By becoming a Common App member, FAU’s undergraduate program will gain exposure to students who may not have otherwise considered the institution while making the application, including fee waiver, process more efficient. One-third of the more than 1 million Common App applicants are the first in

their family to pursue a college degree. “FAU is excited to join the Common Application,” said Maura Flashner, executive director of undergraduate admissions. “We are top of mind for most of our applicants, however we know many of our students are applying to several colleges, and this platform makes it easy and accessible to both research and complete the application.” The Common App membership represents institutions from 49 U.S. states, 20 countries, and includes more than 170 public institutions, 49 minority serving institutions, and 64 international institutions.

Richard Grant Named PBSC’s Head Nassir Named to IWLCA Honor Roll Men’s Basketball Coach Palm Beach Atlantic women's lacrosse's Chanel Nassirwas named to the 2019 Intercollegiate Women's Lacrosse Coaches Association's Zag Sports Division II Academic Honor Roll. The IWLCA Zag Sports Honor Roll recognizes student-athletes that have excelled in the classroom during the past season. Nassir, an international business major, completed her junior season in 2019. The midfielder picked up 20 ground balls and caused 11 turnovers in 14 games for the Sailfish. The Lancaster, Pa. native was one of 281 student-athletes honored by the IWLCA. The Honor Roll consisted of student-athletes from 63 different institutions. 42 student-athletes from across

Richard Grant has been named Palm Beach State College’s new head coach for men’s basketball. Grant will officially begin his duties on Aug. 1. He replaces Martin McCann, who was the head coach for the past five years. Grant was chosen for the role after a national search. “Coach Grant impressed me with his passion and commitment to fostering a brand new program that is high caliber, highly competitive and student centered,” said Mareta Iosia-Sizemore, interim athletics director. Grant comes to PBSC from Broward College, where he was the top assistant coach under head coach Anthony Anderson. During his tenure, Broward basketball went 16-12, beating two top-10 nationally ranked teams. The following six Broward players received All-Conference honors under his supervision: Deandre Pickney, C.J. Roberts, D’Rell Roberts, Rodney Ray, Jongkor Ajonga and Bralyn

James. As the lead recruiter for Broward, Grant was able to land several NCAA Division I transfers. On the court, he implemented a new defensive system, which led to one of the lowest offensive scoring margins in NJCAA Region 8. Before his time at Broward College, Grant served as the director of basketball operations for Wagner College from 2015-2016.
