Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County (SWA) disposal facilities will be open and haulers in unincorporated Palm Beach County will run their regular routes. Residents should place all garbage, recyclables and yard waste curbside by 6 a.m.

While SWA administrative offices will be closed, a limited number of customer service team members will be available to assist residents with any garbage or recycling collection questions or concerns. SWA Customer Information Services can be reached at 561697-2700 or 866-792-4636 (toll-free) or contactcis@swa.org.

REMINDER: Hurricane season started June 1. Now is the time to complete your vegetation trimming. Once a storm threatens, it’s too late to trim trees. It’s best to make a year-round tree trimming plan a part of your hurricane season preparations to minimize property damage and help our community quickly return to normal after a storm passes.

The Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County (SWA or Authority) is

a Dependent Special District that was created by the Florida Legislature in 1975. Since then, the SWA has developed an award-winning integrated solid waste management system to handle the county’s waste and recyclables. We call ourselves AWAY: whether you throw it, recycle it or flush it AWAY, we put your waste to work. Each year, we:

Process 100,000 tons of recyclables

Combust approximately 1.8 million tons of trash to generate electricity at renewable energy facilities

Produce enough electricity to power approximately 90,000 homes

Recycle more than 130,000 tons of wastewater treatment residuals (sludge from fl ushes) into an environmentally-friendly fertilizer amendment

Safely recycle or dispose of more than 4.6 million pounds of home hazards

Collect rainwater from the roofs of Renewable Energy Facility 2 and store it in a 2-million gallon cistern, which is used as part of the energy making process

Anyone can sign up on the SWA’s website to receive SWA news, calendar updates, job announcements or other web postings of interest.

(Editor’s Note: This is the second of two parts.)

Last week I wrote about how I discovered the value of a quiet getaway, not only for business planning but also – and more important – to address the spiritual dimension of life. My encouragement for you is that you resolve to get quiet as often as you can, drawing close to God and receiving the spiritual food and nourishment from Him that is so important for experiencing a rewarding, fulfilling life both in the marketplace and in our private lives.

Of all the tools, strategies and resources available to help us be effective and successful, I have learned the discipline of a deep, extended time alone with God consistently outperforms everything else. More people have breakthroughs in their personal, professional and spiritual lives as a result of this practice than any other single method. If our goal is to realize and carry out our God-given purpose, then it makes sense that we should spend time listening to the Purpose-Giver!

As we study the life and ministry of Jesus Christ, we find that from the beginning He found such times necessary to effectively carry out His mission: “And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, He departed and went out to a desolate place, and there He prayed” (Mark 1:35),

Many of us yearn to hear God’s voice and plan for their lives, but the busyness of everyday life distracts us. It is critical, therefore, that we intentional-

Too Busy For Time Alone – With God?

ly schedule extended time to find a quiet place away from all the distractions. Here is one recommended approach:

Schedule it. Set aside a full day, if possible. Overnight is even better. It often takes a half-day or more just to pull your mind out of work-mode. Be sure to let the key people in your life know that you are taking time away and will not be reachable.

Withdraw. Go to a retreat center, a lake house, beach house, camping, a mountain cabin, or other private setting. Any place that is quiet and where you can be alone will work. I recommend not doing this at your home or second home, as it is too easy to be distracted by visitors, projects, etc.

Unplug. Leave your cell phone OFF. No computer or TV either.

Keep it simple. Bring your journal, a Bible, music, perhaps one book by a Christian author. That is more than enough. Perhaps start with, “What I want to say to God.” Then devote extended time (most of the day) to reading, listening, and writing about, “What is God trying to say to me?” Lastly, spend time (perhaps an hour) writing your thoughts about, “What is the big thing I am hearing from God and what are the implications in my life?”

Get outside. Experience the natural wonder of God’s creation.

Write it out. Journal your thoughts throughout your time alone. Not only will it help you maintain your focus, but later you also will be able to look

back and see patterns, themes, and answered prayers along your journey with the Lord

Relax. Enjoy your time. Don’t feel like you must be praying non-stop. Take a walk, fish, relax.

Be prepared. You will be distracted. That is just the way we are wired. Do not be discouraged at your wandering mind. Just keep refocusing on God and what He is saying to you.

Expect opposition. Our spiritual enemy will try to derail your time, most likely in the day or two before you leave. Time alone with God is not something he wants you to be doing.

Be measured. Give thought to what you will eat and drink – and how much. Too much caffeine, sugar, alcohol, or snacks can distract or cloud your thinking and focus.

Reflection/Discussion Questions

When you sense the need to think through things and plan without having any disruptions, what do you usually do? Have you found this to be effective?

Living in a very hectic, noisy world, we came become so accustomed to it

that the idea of turning off the noise can create anxiety, even fear. Perhaps you find deliberately setting aside time to get away by yourself an alien, intimidating prospect. If so, why do you think that is?

Which of the suggestions for scheduling a getaway, a time for quiet thinking and planning, do you find most appealing? Explain your answer.

Has this two-week discussion of deliberately planning a personal getaway piqued your interest? Does it seem like something you would be interested in trying, if you have not already done something like this? Why or why not?

NOTE: If you have a Bible and would like to read more, consider the following passages: Psalm 23:1-6, 33:11, 118:5-9; Proverbs 3:5-6, 19:21; Matthew 6:25-34; 1 Thessalonians 5:17

Challenge for This Week

Many people know about God, but to truly know Him we need to spend time with Him. To talk with Him. To listen to Him. To sit in His presence and give Him our full attention. When was the last time you did this? Based on what we have discussed in this and last week’s Monday Manna, what are your thoughts about setting aside a scheduled getaway, a quiet time not only for business planning but also to strengthen your spiritual life? Discuss your thoughts this week with a good friend or small group of friends, such as a CBMC group, and then take steps to put your thoughts into action.

Election Season Is Here, What to Do with Those Old Campaign Signs?!

Boca Raton, FL – Campaign signs are an effective way for political candidates to get their names in front of voters, but once the election is over, where should these signs go, and what should you do with them?

Unfortunately, the materials these signs are comprised of are not recyclable in the Solid Waste Authority of Palm Beach County’s dual stream county-wide recycling program.

However, there is good news!

Resource Depot, a creative reuse center in West Palm Beach; the SWA of Palm Beach County, Cemex, and FPL have partnered to collect and recycle Palm Beach County campaign signs this year. Signs will be transported to a NuCycle facility in Plant City, Florida, which recycles the material into enviro-fuel cubes used as a cleaner alternative for coal!

Exact addresses can be found here: https://www.resourcedepot. org/_fi les/ugd/ee07ad_6237a5c35a464ca88e5458b95cd8fff8.pdf

Resource Depot, located at 2508 Florida Avenue in WPB, also encourages you to reuse campaign signs whenever possible. “Corrugated plastic is perfect for various upcycling projects. The material can easily be transformed into some new,” says Jennifer O’Brien, Executive Director, Resource Depot.

HaZamir International Jewish Teen Choir Provides Life Changing Musical Experiences for Young People

Boca Raton, FL – HaZamir: The International Jewish Teen Choir provides meaningful musical experiences for young people in 35 chapters across the U.S. and Israel. Rehearsals for the 2024-2025 season will begin later this month, culminating in a gala performance at Carnegie Hall in the spring featuring hundreds of HaZamir singers. New members are welcome, and teens are encouraged to join the local HaZamir Boca Raton chapter, conducted by Cantor David Muchnick, for a rewarding experience of music, culture, leadership and friendship. For more information contact HaZaBoca@gmail.com.

HaZamir was created in 1993 by Maestro Matthew Lazar, Founder and Director of the Zamir Choral Foundation, to provide an opportunity for accomplished young singers to perform great Jewish music at the highest standard of excellence and sing on the world’s biggest stages.

“HaZamir gives young people an outlet to celebrate their Jewish heritage, connect with one another and feel a sense of belonging and pride through the creative outlet of music,” says Matthew Lazar. “Now, more than ever, this supportive community is crucial to teens.”

HaZamir has long served as a training ground for the next generation of singers, conductors, composers and leaders. Many HaZamir graduates have gone on to musical careers and have assumed leadership roles in their commu-

nities, while seventeen HaZamir alumni are now conductors or coordinators of their own HaZamir chapters.

HaZamir members rehearse weekly in their local chapters with expert conductors, as well as at regional gatherings throughout the year. A three-day Festival leading up to the annual performance brings Israeli and American teens together to rehearse and to discuss important topics related to Judaism, providing an opportunity for them to learn about each other’s traditions and cultures.

“This is a life-changing experience for these teens, as they express their Jewish identities through their love of music while building leadership skills and strong connections to peers from a range of backgrounds,” says Vivian Lazar, Director of HaZamir. “The ca-

maraderie and healing power of choral singing also boosts mood and self-esteem, allowing them to achieve great success.”

The HaZamir choir is comprised of teenagers in grades 9-12 in 26 American chapter locations including Baltimore, Bergen County NJ, Boca Raton, Boston, Brooklyn, Central New Jersey, Chicago, Cleveland, Houston, L.A. Valley, Los Angeles, Long Island NY, Manhattan, MetroWest NJ, Miami, Minneapolis, New Haven, Orlando, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Providence, Silicon Valley CA, South New Jersey, Tampa, Washington, DC and Westchester County NY and in 9 cities in Israel.

HaZamir alumnus JP sums up the unique benefits of the HaZamir experience: “HaZamir taught me invaluable lessons about unity, the power of

the collective, Judaism, leadership, and friendship. As I look back on this experience, the many memories, while all exciting and different, share a common denominator: HaZamir brings out the best in everyone.”

For additional information about HaZamir, email hazamir@zamirchoralfoundation.org or visit www.hazamir.org

The Zamir Choral Foundation, created by Matthew Lazar, promotes choral music as a vehicle to inspire Jewish life, literacy, community, and connection to Israel. Zamir Choral Foundation’s musical programs include North American Jewish Choral Festival; HaZamir Preparatory Program for 7th and 8th graders; HaZamir: The International Jewish Teen Choir; Zamir Noded for young adults 18-30; and the acclaimed Zamir Chorale. Matthew Lazar, Founder and Director of Zamir Choral Foundation, is considered the leading force of the Jewish choral movement in the US. He has worked with Maestros Leonard Bernstein, Zubin Mehta, Carlo Maria Giulini, Daniel Barenboim and others.

The Zamir Choral Foundation is guided by an expansive vision of vibrant Jewish identity across the generational, denominational and political continuums through the study and performance of Jewish music at the highest level of excellence. For more information, visit www.zamirchoralfoundation.org.

3 Tips to Help Kids Stay on Top of Their Homework

(StatePoint) When a new school year begins, most teachers don’t wait long before they begin scheduling tests, and assigning loads of homework and reading assignments. Here are three tips for helping kids stay on top of all their coursework:

1. Focus on organization: One of the most valuable life skills a student can develop while in school is time management. Teach kids how to prioritize assignments with upcoming deadlines and those which are easy to knock off their to-do list. Encourage them to find an organizational tool, such as an academic planner or calendar, that works for them.

Depending on their preferences and learning style, they may prefer to use appbased tools. The important thing is that they always know what is on their to-do list and when it must be completed by. If they are struggling, help them chunk their afternoon into segments so that they bud-

get enough time for each of their tasks.

2. Equip them with high-quality math tools: Math can be a frustrating subject for many students. To make learning simpler, equip them with tools that are incredibly easy to use. With Natural Textbook Display and an intuitive icon menu, the fx-9750GIII graphing calculator from Casio is a solid, affordable

choice for quickly grasping new mathematical concepts. And because it features nearly 3,000 functions, including graph plotting, probability distribution, vector arithmetic and spreadsheets, students at all levels will find it an invaluable tool, particularly during test-taking season, as its exam mode makes it approved for the SAT, PSAT, ACT and AP tests. The fx9750GIII is also capable of programming

in CASIO Basic and MicroPython, and Python files are easily stored and transferred via USB to a computer.

3. Set boundaries: As a parent, it’s essential that you support your child in their academic pursuits, however being too hands-on during homework time could lead them to rely on you to provide them with answers, not guidance.

While this approach may mean they turn their assignments in on time, if they aren’t absorbing the material themselves they could quickly fall behind in the classroom. Set clear boundaries about what your after-school role will be and stick to it. You can also foster your child’s independence and confidence by helping them differentiate between reliable educational resources and misinformation.

With the right tools and habits, students can keep up with their assignments and make the most of their study time.

Tips to Stay Connected During Natural Disasters

(StatePoint) No matter where you live or what time of the year it is, individuals, families, businesses and others nationwide should be prepared for unpredictable weather and natural disasters – from hurricanes to tornadoes to wildfires. With some researchers forecasting a potentially record-breaking hurricane season and above normal risks for wildfires for some portions of the country this year, it’s important to be ready.

Effective communication is vital during disasters for receiving updates, talking with loved ones and reaching first responders. One of the most important things you can do ahead of time is learn how you can stay connected. Here are some tips from T-Mobile experts on ways you can prepare and get the information you need to stay in the know when it matters most.

• Keep phones and devices fully charged, and store back-up chargers and batteries. There’s nothing quite like losing power when your phone has a low battery, so keep devices full of juice. And make sure you have back-up chargers, portable chargers, and/or batteries so you can keep your devices on if your power goes out. You’ll also want to have a charger handy

if you’re traveling. If you get stranded or stuck while driving, you’ll want a way to stay connected with loved ones or emergency services.

• Add important numbers in your contacts. Most of us have friends, family and coworkers programmed in our phones. But in an emergency, you may need to contact local police, fire departments or power companies. Program these numbers now so you don’t spend precious time looking them up during an

emergency.

• Text instead of calling and keep calls short. Sometimes during a severe weather event or natural disaster, too many calls and texts at the same time can cause telecommunications networks to become congested. If you have trouble making calls, try texting instead. Text messages are more likely to get through than phone calls because they take up fewer network resources.

• If you don’t have mobile service, try Wi-Fi calling. If your power and WiFi connection are still on but your mobile service is down, you may be able to call someone via Wi-Fi. For Apple phones, go to Settings > Phone > Wi-Fi Calling and for Android phones, go to Settings > More Connection Settings > Wi-Fi Calling.

• Stay safe and calm. Network engineers prepare for weather conditions throughout the year so they can restore service if needed as soon as possible. But hazardous conditions may cause delays. Downed trees, power outages and other obstacles can hinder restoration efforts. Engineers will make repairs as soon as it’s safe to do so.

A few simple steps can help ensure that even during natural disasters and unexpected events, you’re able to connect with first responders and the people you love.

Roots And Wings Literary Push For Kids Expands To Boca Raton

After choosing Boca to move into their first office space, Roots and Wings’ reading literacy initiative for kids did the next best thing…

“Make a Splash into Reading with IV Splash Hydration and Wellness” was their first Boca Chamber Festival Days, one of 27 events through August that high-profile nonprofits at Boca Chamber member venues.

There’s a reason why founder and president Ted Hoskinson is smiling in the photo with program services com-

mittee chairman Don Uselmann. Since he started Project Uplift in 2016 to help kids master the critical third-grade reading level, the program is so successful, Ted likes to show school principal testimonials.

Others ask “how soon can you get here?” he says. In fact, they can, as they raise more funds to hire certified teachers and literacy coaches at more schools. Last year, the program expanded to fourth- and fifth-graders in 13 schools, having served 1,012 students so far. Their goal for the 2024 school year is serving 1,292, and helping more kids avoid the scary figure of 80% of low-income students who struggle with reading proficiency are at risk of dropping out.

Giving Roots and Wings their support at the IV Splash event were philanthropists Marcia and Doug Mithun. “This is everything about kids,” she said. A video with puppets and five children’s books by Suzanne Kline were on display. Kline said she met Ted two years ago at a Rotary meeting and his efforts inspired her to contribute her books and support his efforts. “If kids see these characters, they’ll want to read the books,” she said.

Place of Hope Hosts Packed Back-to-School Anti-Human Trafficking Workshop in Boca

The Event was Part of a Series Held Across Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast

Boca Raton, FL – In a powerful effort to combat the alarming rise of human trafficking in Florida, Place of Hope hosted a free workshop at the Leighan and David Rinker Campus in Boca Raton. The event drew a packed audience of parents and students, all eager to learn how to protect themselves and their loved ones from the dangers of online predators, grooming, and human trafficking. Florida, which ranks third in the nation, and Palm Beach County

which ranks third in the state for calls to the National Trafficking Hotline, is facing a hidden epidemic of human trafficking that often occurs right in front of us.

The workshop, part of a series of educational sessions organized by Place of Hope, provided crucial insights into recognizing the warning signs of human trafficking and taking preventive measures. These sessions are designed to equip middle and high school students, as well as their parents, with the knowledge needed to stay safe in a world where the internet has become a primary tool for predators.

Kristen Adams, an “angel mom” with Place of Hope and one of the key organizers of the workshop, emphasized the critical role of awareness and communication in protecting children. “I’m a mom at home, and I’m also an aunt to lots of nieces and nephews,” Adams said. “We grow up in a home that we think is safe, but once our children walk outside our doors, they’re open to the entire world.

Cell phones are changing the way that we parent, and we have to be aware and knowledgeable about what to look for—not just with our own children, but with others—so we can help protect them all.”

The workshop also provided practical tips for parents to identify potential trafficking situations in their neighborhoods. Some of the red flags discussed included excessive security measures at a house, blacked-out windows, and unusual amounts of traffic in and out of a residence. Parents were also advised to watch for sudden changes in their children’s behavior, such as new tattoos or expensive items that they cannot explain, as these could be indicators of exploitation.

Jamie Bond Ciancio, Director of Advancement for Place of Hope North County and the leader of the workshop, stressed the often-overlooked reality of human trafficking. “What is most shocking for people to find out is that human trafficking and commercial sexual exploitation of children are not what we think they are when it comes to Hollywood,” Ciancio said. “Ninety percent of the children and youth who are being exploited, sexually abused, and trafficked know their perpetrator.”

Ciancio encouraged parents to foster open communication with their children, making them feel safe and understood rather than focusing on punishment. “If they feel those things at home, we’ve seen success in opening dialogues to have these tough conversations.” She also said when it comes to internet chat rooms that you shouldn’t be talking to someone you can’t text or call on the phone.

The workshops, which were also held on Place of Hope campuses in Stuart and West Palm Beach, were a stark reminder of the vigilance required to protect children in today’s digital age. In addition to education and outreach, Place of Hope has also taken in more than 50 human trafficking survivors providing foster care, housing, support, and rehabilitation services.

Since its inception Place of Hope has taken in thousands of other abused, neglected and homeless youth and has provided services for more than 40,000 youth, young adults and families.

Learn to be safe, make good choices, learn to swim and know how to handle emergencies.

Provide constant, active adult supervision and know how to swim.

Swim in an area with lifeguards. Designate a “water watcher” to keep a close eye and constant attention on everyone in and around the water until the next water watcher takes over.

Wear your life jacket.

Reach or throw, don’t go! In the event of an emergency, reach or throw an object to the person in trouble. Don’t go in! You could become a victim yourself.

Swimming classes are available for both children and adults. Visit redcross. org/watersafety for a map of Learnto-Swim providers in your communit

PICNIC, GRILLING SAFETY

Summer is a great time to get outside for a picnic or to fire up the grill. Follow these tips to prevent illness and keep everyone safe:

Wash your hands, utensils and

workstation before preparing the food.

Separate uncooked meats, poultry and seafood from ready-to-eat foods like salads, fruits, vegetables, cheeses and desserts. Use separate plates and utensils to prevent cross-contamination.

Bring hand sanitizer if your picnic site doesn’t have hand-washing facilities.

If you are going to cook on the grill, bring a food thermometer to be sure grilled foods are cooked enough.

Always supervise a barbecue grill when in use.

Don’t add charcoal starter fluid when coals have already been ignited. Never grill indoors.

Make sure everyone, including pets, stays away from the grill.

Keep the grill out in the open, away from the house, deck, tree branches or anything that could catch fire.

Use the long-handled tools especially made for cooking on the grill to help keep the chef safe.

Wash your hands before preparing the food.

Don’t leave food out in the hot sun. Keep perishable foods in a cooler with plenty of ice or freezer gel packs.

OUTDOOR SAFETY Whether camping or just enjoying the outdoors, follow these tips:

If a camping trip is in your plans, know the level of ability of the people in your group and the environment around you. Plan accordingly.

Pack a first aid kit.

Take a Red Cross first aid and CPR course and download the First Aid app. Watch for sprains, falls and dehydration.

Share your travel plans and locations with a family member, neighbor or friend.

Bring nutritious food items and water, light-weight clothing to layer and supplies for any pets.

There is a greater chance of getting bitten by mosquitoes and ticks outdoors Use insect repellents containing DEET (N, N-diethyl-meta-toluamide) when you are outdoors. Be sure to follow the directions on the package.

Consider staying indoors at dusk and dawn, when mosquitoes are most active.

Wear long-sleeved shirts and long pants and tuck your pant legs into your socks or boots.

Use a rubber band or tape to hold pants against socks so that nothing can get under clothing.

Tuck your shirt into your pants. Wear light-colored clothing to make it easier to see tiny insects or ticks.

When hiking in woods and fields, stay in the middle of trails. Avoid underbrush and tall grass.

If you are outdoors for a long time, check yourself several times during the day. Especially check in hairy areas of the body like the back of the neck and the scalp line.

Inspect yourself carefully for insects or ticks after being outdoors or have someone else do it.

If you have pets that go outdoors, spray with repellent made for their breed/type. Apply the repellent according to the label and check your pet for ticks often.

Get rid of mosquito breeding sites by emptying sources of standing water outside of the home, such as from flowerpots, buckets and barrels.

Palm Beach County Ranks Among Best Places to Retire in Florida – 2024 Study

Boca Raton, FL – A new study from SmartAsset ranks the 10 best places to retire in Florida. The analysis considers four criteria, including tax burden, access to medical care and opportunity for recreation and social activity. Counties which ranked the best across these metrics were the counties that ranked highest in the study. According to the study Palm Beach County ranked among the best places to retire in Florida.

For a closer look at the top 10 counties in Florida, check out the table below:

To fi nd the best places to retire, SmartAsset gathered data on three separate regional factors that affect the quality of life for retirees, including tax-friendliness, medical care and social opportunities.

First, we looked at state and local tax rates, considering two types of taxes: income and sales. We calculated effective rates based on a retiree earning $35,000 annually (from retirement savings, Social Security and part-time employment). We subtracted income taxes paid from the gross income to determine disposable income. Sales taxes paid were calculated based on the disposable income being spent on taxable goods.

Next, we determined the number of doctors’ offices, recreation centers and retirement centers per thousand residents in each location. Finally, we measured the number of seniors in each city as a percentage of the total population.

In our final analysis, we ranked each location on these three factors. Then we calculated an average ranking for each area and weighted the three factors equally. The areas with the highest average ranking were determined to be the best places to retire

Florida, is living proof that determination and independence can drive one toward their dreams, even when separated from family by thousands of miles.

Ishita’s journey to the United States began at the age of 12, when she made the courageous decision to leave her home in India and embark on a quest for a world-class education. Her destination was Wilbraham & Monson Academy in Massachusetts, where she

spent three formative years. It was here that Ishita began shaping her path, balancing the demands of academic life while adjusting to a new culture far from her family.

Living in a boarding school, Ishita experienced the challenges of being away from home at a young age. Yet, these challenges only fueled her determination. During her holidays, she would travel alone back to India to reunite with her parents, a journey that symbolized her independence and the strength of her resolve.

After three years at Wilbraham & Monson Academy, Ishita transitioned to Saint Andrew’s School in Boca Raton. Here, she continues to pursue her American dream, striving for academic excellence and embracing the opportunities that her education in the United States affords her.

Ishita’s story is one of resilience and aspiration. Her experience of living far from her parents, navigating life in a foreign country, and managing the rigors of school life alone speaks volumes about her character. She stands as an inspiration to her peers and a testament to the possibilities that open up when one dares to dream and work toward those dreams with unwavering determination.
