Stuart Air Show flying high Patrick McCallister FOR VETERAN VOICE
pmccallister@YourVoiceWeekly.com
MARTIN COUNTY — The U.S. Army Parachute Team is dropping in at the 2015 Stuart Air Show. The team is better known as the “Golden Knights.” “We’re really excited about them,” Elisabeth Glynn, executive director of the air show, said. “They’re the world’s most elite parachute team.” The Stuart Air Show is ramping up the excitement on Friday, Oct. 30, 5 to 10 p.m. “We have a really beautiful night show,” Glynn said. The night features the Dirty Flight Suit Party. The name comes from the tradition of performers showing up in their dirty flight suits. The party has all the trimmings — dinner, chances to meet the performers, and premium seats to watch the inaugural show. Tickets are $90. “There’s also general admission for people who just want to throw down a blanket, get hot dogs and beer, and watch the night show and fireworks,” Glynn said. Folks who drop by the web site before Wednesday, Oct. 28, can get general-admission tickets for $15. They’re $25 at the gate. Veterans and active duty folks get tickets for $5, whether at the gate or online. Proof of military service will be checked at the gate. Youths ages 6 to 12 are also $5. Those ages 5 and younger are free. The air-show action continues on Saturday with gates opening at 9 a.m. They’ll open on Sunday, Nov. 1, at 9 a.m., too. Gates are open until 5 p.m. both days.

Sheriff appointed to state task force Patrick McCallister STAFF WRITER

MARTIN COUNTY — Sheriff William Snyder is used to fighting crime on the Treasure Coast. Now he’ll help fight it from the Panhandle to the Keys. Gov. Rick Scott appointed Martin’s top cop to the Florida Violent Crime and Drug Council earlier this month, along with four others. “What I want to do, as much as I want to go after drugs, is to go after violent gangs that cross
county lines,” Snyder said in a telephone interview after the appointment. The State Legislature created the council in 1993 and expanded its role in 2001 to include drug crimes. It has 14 members, law-enforcement professionals from throughout the state. They meet biannually to review major cases and analyze crime trends to develop coordinated responses. The legislature gives the council a budget to help buttress law-enforcement resources in needed areas. Snyder, who served in the Flor-
ida House of Representatives, has worked to give law enforcers more legal resources to handle criminals who are unconcerned about political boundaries. “The Florida Gang Law, I wrote that when I was in Tallahassee,” Snyder said. “Now I help to allocate money for (combating) gang activity that crosses county lines.” Additionally, in 2014 the legislature passed a bill Snyder proposed to add charges and stiffen penalties for burglars who cross

PALM CITY — Saturday, Oct. 17, a fundraiser was held for Peyton McCaughey at Bessey Creek Elementary school on Matheson Road, where Peyton is a fourth-grader. All Points Mobile Shredding and Bessey Creek Elementary hosted a fundraiser for Peyton McCaughey. On August 16th, the McCaughey family began exhibiting adverse symptoms after returning to their recently fumigated house in Palm City. Everyone in the family recovered except for Peyton, who initially lost 90 percent of his motor skills and is believed to have incurred severe brain damage due to poison sickness. “Though he still has a very long way to go, he has made very good progress over the last few weeks,” said his uncle Ed Gribben, Jr., earlier this month. Reportedly, he has regained basic use of his left arm, as well as improved communication skills, and has begun to walk with assistance. “It is not a graceful gait, but it is beautiful to us,” said Gribben. After spending 10 days in St.
Mary’s ICU and several weeks at Miami Children’s Hospital, Peyton is finally home and being treated as an outpatient, according to recent updates. The fundraiser was a community shredding event hosted by All Points Mobile Shredding in conjunction with the school’s PTA. Owner Brian Connelly is a longtime friend of the McCaugheys and Peyton’s i9 flag football coach. Connelly’s son, Austin, is also one of Peyton’s classmates. As medical and legal expenses have accrued, and relatives have taken leave from work to support Peyton’s recovery, numerous members of the community have offered their help. A Go Fund Me account for Peyton’s recovery has raised three-fourths of its projected goal. Several local businesses such as Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza and Longneck Brew House in Stuart have hosted charity events, and many still are yet to come. On November 14th, a 5k race called Push the Pace for Peyton will be held at Martin County High School — proceeds will be donated to the McCaughey family. Peyton’s mother, Lori McCaughey, is an assistant principal at the high school.

AIR SHOW from page 1 The Navy is sending a Boeing F/A-18E Super Hornet to the show. Not to be outdone, the Air Force will be there with a Lockheed Martin F-16 Fighting Falcon. This year the Air National Guard will be at the Stuart Air Show, too, sponsoring John Klatt Airshows. “We’ve got some great civilian performances as well,” Glynn said. “We have Prowlers of the Pacific, which is something new here.” The Prowlers will offer a demonstration of World War II tactical flying in period aircraft. Glynn said Redline Air Shows will be on hand, too. “That’s two planes flying together doing an amazing air acrobatics show,” she said. Redline is pilots Ken Rieder and Jon Thocker and their twin Van’s RV-8s. Other performances will be the AeroShell Aerobatic Team, Chefpitts, Dan Buchanan, Oliver’s Flying Circus, and more. Also planned is an Air Force Heritage Flight. Glynn said no one will see an addition to the air show, but they’ll know it’s there: Solutions Event Services. The company is handling traffic and parking coordination. “That’s going to help make the traffic flow into the show, and once the show is over,” Glynn said. Last year’s show attracted about
File photo by Mitch Kloorfain/chief photographer The Aeroshell Aerobatic Stunt Team returns to dazzle the crowds at the Stuart Air Show beginning Saturday, Oct. 31 at Witham Field in Stuart. 50,000 viewers, a record number, and it’s looking like there’ll be even more this year. Glynn said attendees showed great patience and courtesy last year, but show organizers realized it was time to bring in traffic pros. “When you have that many people, there’s going to be traffic,” she said. “We want people happy from start to finish.” The air show raises money for numerous charities, including the Road to Victory Military Museum in Stuart, and ARC of Martin County, Special Olympics and the Martin County Community Foundation.
For the second year the airshow will have earplugs available at the gates for children and adults with hearing sensitivity. Last year they were free. Glynn said the air show might charge a minimal price this year to raise money for one of the charities. Those who go to the website before Wednesday, Oct. 28, can get general-admission tickets for $15. They’re $25 at the gate. Veterans and active duty military personnel get tickets for $5, whether at the gate or online. Proof of military service will be checked at the gate. Youths ages 6 to 12 are also $5. Those ages 5 and younger are free.

‘Butterfly Children’ working toward a cure FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS
PALM CITY — The other day I was complaining that my back hurt to my three year old son, Anders. He looked up at me with his adorable, innocent, blue eyes and asked me if I needed him to “pop it”. Now, to most people this probably would mean pop/ crack my back. But to my son, this means pop a blister. Anders’ solution to my aching back may sound strange, but in our home this is our daily routine. This is because Anders suffers from a rare and, in far too many cases, life threatening genetic skin disorder called Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB). Individuals with EB lack a critical protein that binds their layers of skin together. Without this protein, even the slightest touch or friction can cause blisters and wounds all over their body, inside and out. Every day my husband and I have to sur-
vey his body and check for new blisters and then “pop” and drain them with a needle. Everyone knows how painful a blister can be, so imagine having them all over your body and sometimes internally. Sadly, this is a reality for our first born child. Here is Anders’ story: The day our first son was born was the best day of our lives! He was absolutely perfect and we were on cloud nine. When we came home from the hospital we noticed a few blisters on his heels from where he was given shots after birth and blisters on his body. The nurse who came to check up on Anders was concerned and told us to go to our pediatrician right away. Alarmed, our pediatrician told us to check back into the hospital immediately. As the blisters began to form on his fingers and feet, sev-

artin County is determined in its desire to improve our waterways. A clean and sustainable water supply is essential to our community. A healthy Everglades and South Florida ecosystem supports tens of thousands of jobs and contributes billions of dollars to our economy.
We are working on a multitude of solutions to this issue such as the Indian River Lagoon-South project of the Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP), which will substantially address our local basin runoff.

Martin County has invested more than $50 million in 25 storm-water projects serving over 6,000 acres — integrate new technology, and invest in land conservation and Everglades restoration projects. Martin County citizens have voluntarily taxed themselves, generating $75 million to support Everglades restoration and improved water quality, and acquired 45,000 acres for various CERP projects. We restored 28 acres of oyster habitat in the St. Lucie Estuary, and our environmental regulations are among the strongest in the state, designed to protect wetlands and our waterways. Pollution from septic tanks also poses a significant threat to our waterways. Since the 1990s, our

Utilities Department has eliminated 70 package plants in Martin County; 50 of these systems were considered a threat to the Indian River Lagoon. By doing so, we have prevented nearly 6 million gallons per day of wastewater from entering or waterways. In addition, we have completed eight projects to provide sewer service to 1,762 properties formally served by septic tanks, including areas in Jensen Beach, Golden Gate, North River Shores and Palm City. We recently conducted extensive research to identify the sites of greatest concern regarding potential pollution from septic tanks. Our study found five of the 14 sites sampled had detections of chemical and/or biological markers and elevated bacterial counts. The presence of a human fecal source marker was detected at sites located in the Golden Gate area and in the All-American Ditch in Palm City. The combination of consistently elevated counts of fecal coliform bacteria and detection of sucralose (artificial sweeteners) suggests inadequately treated human waste water sources may be

eral tests were being run on him. No one had any idea what was causing these blisters. At five days old we had to place our son on a gurney and load him into an ambulance to take him to St. Mary’s Children’s Hospital. After being at St. Mary’s for several days, Anders was finally diagnosed with a rare genetic disorder called Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB). This condition is characterized by the presence of extremely fragile skin and recurrent blister formation, resulting from minor friction or trauma. It is called the “worst disease you’ve never heard of.” Children that have EB are called “Butterfly Children” because their skin is as fragile as a butterfly’s wing. Only about 200 children in the U.S. are born with EB each year. There are several variations of severity with this condition ranging from the simplex form to the worst case scenarios, junctional or dystrophic where many of these children don’t survive. Fortunately, our 3 year old son has the simplex form, but he will still have to deal with painful blisters for the rest of his life. Some obstacles he has had to face were crawling and walking. He finally started walking at 19 months. The blisters that formed on the bottoms of his feet from standing up made it too difficult and painful to walk any earlier. He still has his days where he limps and won’t wear shoes because he has too many blisters on his feet and ankles. These are the issues he faces on a day to day basis. We are talking about this openly because we know that Anders will be okay, but we want to help find a cure for these other children who aren’t as lucky as our son. Please join us for our 2nd Annual Halloween Costume/Cocktail Party October 24th 2015 at
“This condition is characterized by the presence of extremely fragile skin and recurrent blister formation, resulting from minor friction or trauma. It has been coined the ‘worst disease you’ve never heard of.’ Children that have EB are called ‘Butterfly Children’ because their skin is as fragile as a butterfly’s wing.” Lauren Pittman the Filipe Estate (same site as last year’s event). This event is in Anders’ name to find a cure for EB. All the proceeds will go to The EB Research Partnership (EBRP), the largest nonprofit dedicated to funding research aimed at treating and curing EB. Our inaugural event raised over $25,000 for EB and we are confident this year will be even more successful! We would love to hear from anyone who would like to donate or volunteer to help with the event. Please visit www.AndersForEB. com to buy tickets and/or donate. Advanced tickets are $50 and $75 at the door. This includes: Entry Fee, Beer, Wine, Liquor, Food and Entertainment. There will be a live and silent auction and a costume contest! For more information please call us at 772-215-5554 or email us at Lauren@DrewPittman.com. Editors Note: Lauren Pittman wrote this article based on her families personal experiences and in the hope of a successful event — to further the advancement for a cure for Epidermolysis Bullosa.

SEPTIC from page 6 present. Dr. Brian LaPointe with Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute is conducting a septic tank study at these two sites to further determine the interaction between septic tanks, ground waters and surface waters of the St. Lucie River and Estuary. The County also updated a 2001 report that prioritizes areas in need of septic to sewer conversion. The current report, called the “2015 Septic to Sewer Conversion Report” — available on our website at www.martin.fl.us under “Hot Topics” — prioritizes and provides cost estimates for 24 communities located along the St. Lucie Estuary and Indian River Lagoon within Martin County. On Nov. 3, the Board of County Commissioners will review this report and discuss ways we can move forward on this front. We have already prioritized septic to sewer conversions in Old Palm

Avoid Emotional Investment Decisions YOUR

a leading investment research organization. The bottom line? Staying invested over the long term can pay off. (Keep in mind, though, that the S&P 500 is an unmanaged index and isn’t meant to depict an actual invest-
Jamie Chapogas market. In any case, don’t overreact to short-term downturns by making hasty “buy” or “sell” decisions. Instead, stick with a long-term strategy that’s appropriate for your goals, risk tolerance and time horizon. • Heading to the investment “sidelines” – Some people get so frustrated over market volatility that they throw up their hands and head to the investment “sidelines” until “things calm down.” And it’s certainly true that, when owning stocks, there are no guarantees; you do risk losing some, or all, of your investment. But if you jump in and out of the market to “escape“ volatility, you may take on an even bigger risk – the risk of losing some of the growth you’ll need to reach your goals. Consider this: If you had invested $10,000 in a package of stocks mimicking the S&P 500 in December 1979, your investment would have grown to more than $426,000 by December 2013. But if you had missed just the 10 best days of the market during that time, your $10,000 would only have grown to less than $206,000 – a difference of about $220,000, according to Ned Davis Research,

hat’s the biggest obstacle to your ability to invest successfully? Is it the ups and downs of the financial markets? Political events? The fact that you weren’t born rich? Actually, the chief hurdle you face is something over which you have control: your own emotions. Your emotions can lead to a variety of ill-advised investment behaviors, such as these: • Cutting losses – Declines in the financial markets can lead some investors to try to “cut their losses” by selling investments whose price has declined. Yet, when prices have dropped, it may actually be a good time to buy investments, not sell them, especially when the investments are still fundamentally sound. • Chasing performance – In the investment world, the flip side of “fear” is “greed.” Just as some investors are propelled by fear of loss, others are motivated by quick, big gains. They may pursue “hot” investments, only to be disappointed when the sizzle quickly fizzles. Instead of trying to “score” that one big winner, you may be better off spreading your investment dollars among a range of vehicles – stocks, bonds, government securities, certificates of deposit (CDs) and so on. While diversification can’t guarantee a profit or protect against loss, it may help reduce the impact of market volatility on your portfolio. • Focusing on the short term – When the market is down, you might get somewhat upset when you view your monthly investment statements. But any individual statement is just a snapshot in time; if you were to chart your investment results over a period of 10, 15 or 20 years, you’d see the true picture of how your portfolio is doing – and, in all likelihood, that picture would look better than a statement or two you received during a down

PEYTON from page 3 The fundraiser requested that everyone who brought documents donate $10 a box. The goal was to raise at least a few thousand dollars for the McCaugheys. Many arrived with multiple boxes, and a friend of the community even returned with a stack of hard drives. Erin Rekowski, president of the PTA at Bessey Creek, says that in her memory the school has never hosted an event like this. Both she and Connelly would consider hosting another event at the school, if there is enough demand
for it. All Points holds quarterly shredding events for different causes, but they have rarely rallied to a cause so close to home, says Connelly. With 536 students, Bessey Creek Elementary is a very close-knit community. Several parents volunteered their time for the event Saturday morning. One especially felt the deep impact Peyton’s tragedy has had on this community when between shreddings, Connelly’s children passed a football back and forth, no doubt wishing their friend could join them.

Family Fun Day at Sailfish Splash Water Park a success FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS
The Patrick Stracuzzi Team is proud to have sponsored Family Fun Day at Sailfish Splash Water Park, in Stuart on Oct. 10. With over 1,250 in attendance and over $7,000 raised for CASTLE, the event was deemed a success. The Stracuzzi team became involved with CASTLE when Patrick listed a home in Jensen Beach. While at the home he saw over a hundred white flags along the water. When he asked about the purpose of the flags his client, Judith, said, “It’s The Memory Field.” Judith shared with him the story behind the flags and the story behind the CASTLE program, which uses the flags to represent each child that has lost their life to abuse or neglect in Florida. In the past year 129 flags flew for those children, of those were twelve children from the Treasure Coast and Okeechobee areas. The Memory Fields began nine years ago, and since then, they have memorialized over 1,300 children.
“My heart softened and I realized I am supposed to do something to help. I explained to Judith that every year I try to make a difference on the Treasure Coast. It was that moment that I made a commitment to make a difference with CASTLE!” stated Stracuzzi. Many thanks to the community for their attendance in support of this wonderful cause. A special thank you to the volunteers and partnerships with local business that made it possible for all proceeds to be donated directly to the CASTLE program. “If the money raised saves just one life it will all be worth it!” said Stracuzzi. “Plans are already underway to make this a yearly event. Thank you, thank you, thank you Treasure Coast!” In addition to the Splash event, the Stracuzzi Team invited the Treasure Coast Humane Society to be a part of the day and are happy to report three dogs were adopted at the event!

Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 5K fundraising walk Frank Avilla
FOR YOUR VOICE NEWS & VIEWS
PALM CITY — Although not able to walk in the American Cancer Society’s upcoming Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 5K fundraising walk, Terry Moore, Palm City resident, was interested and excited to help out in some other way for the fight against breast cancer. When contacted by Diane Gallagher, an American Cancer Society volunteer and the Income Chair for this year’s walk, the two figured out a way to raise both awareness for the walk as well as some additional funding to help find a cure for breast cancer, the second-leading cause of death in women. What resulted was a Bowl-a-thon, which took place on Sunday, Oct. 11 at St. Lucie Lanes. For a $25 per person entry fee, participants received two hours of bowling and also had the chance to enter drawings, win door prizes and bid on any of the donated silent auction items. This was just one of many smaller events that have taken place across the area over the past several weeks in an attempt to increase awareness and raise funds for the cause leading up to the 5K walk, which will take place at 9am on Saturday, Oct. 31 at Tradition Field at Mets Stadium. Check-in begins at 7:30am. Unfortunately for Moore, the Junior Bowling Coordinator at St. Lucie Lanes, will have to work on the day of the walk. She lost both to
of her parents to cancer in about a five-year span, with her mother’s passing in 2008 the most recent. She was thrilled with the opportunity to collaborate with Gallagher on the pre-walk bowling event. “Diane came to me and asked me about doing some kind of fundraiser. I think it’s awesome,” said Moore. “I have personally donated to the walk before. Cancer is a horrible disease. I wish they would find a cure for it.” According to the American Cancer Society, breast cancer is the second most common cancer diagnosed in women, just behind skin cancer. In 2015, nearly 232,000 women are expected to be newly diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States, while more than 40,000 women are expected to die from breast
have some additional people join the walk,” said Gallagher. “We thought by having people come out and bowl that it might be their introduction to learning about the walk. It would be our way of connecting Making Strides to new people.” “We had some youth bowlers here today and some (breast cancer) survivors here today. We also had some first-time participants that we’re hoping will sign up for the walk.” The Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk is part of the largest network of breast cancer awareness events in the nation, uniting nearly 300 communities. Last year across the county, more than one million Making Strides walkers helped to raise more than $60 million for the American Cancer Society to

For Gallagher, a St. Lucie West resident and longtime supporter and participant of the annual walk, the bowling event was a perfect opportunity to generate added public interest in the upcoming 5K. “We are happy to do this to not only raise money, but to also raise awareness and gather community support to
help save more lives from breast cancer. Last year, 3,200 walkers participated in the Making Strides walk in St. Lucie West and raised a total of $93,000, according to Sharon Horton-Parker, Community Manager, Making Strides Against Breast Cancer. She said they

The History of Halloween Brought to you by
Once upon a time a man called Stingy Jack invited the devil to have a drink with him. Jack, who lived up to his Moniker, did not want to spend money so he persuaded the devil to turn himself into a coin that Jack could use to pay. The devil agreed but instead of buying the drinks Jack decided to keep the money. He put it deep down inside his pocket beside a silver cross which kept the devil from turning back to his original form. Eventually Jack decided to let the devil go as long as he promised not to bother Jack for one more year and if Jack died the devil would not claim his soul. A year later Jack convinced the devil to climb a tree for a piece of fruit, while the devil was picking the fruit Jack carved a cross in the tree bark which prevented the devil from climbing down until the devil promised Jack that he wouldn’t bother him for 10 more years. When Jack died God wouldn’t allow him into heaven and the devil, upset by the tricks that jack had played on him but keeping his word not to claim his soul would not let Jack into hell. He sent Jack off into the dark night with only a burning coal to light his way. Jack put the coal into a carved turnip and has wandered the earth with it ever since. The Irish call this ghostly figure Jack of the lantern. Eventually it was shortened to the term that we use today Jack-O’-Lantern. Folks in Ireland and Scotland started carving their own versions of Jack’s lanterns by etching scary faces into turnips or potatoes and setting them near the windows and the doors to scare away Stingy Jack and other evil spirit. When they emigrated to America the tradition came with them. They realize that pumpkins were native to our country and that they made perfect Jack-O’-Lanterns and that’s why we carve pumpkins to this very day.

way down to the sailfish flats, light tackle and small jigs will make for a lot of fun. Trout and Redfish on the east side from little mud creek up to middle cove, the early top water bite has been best. With an evening outgoing tide and a north wind, Snook fishing will be excellent for the jig anglers. Bucktail jigs from 1 ½ ounce to 3 ounce worked slowly across the bottom with the tide claim many fish all year, but especially during a front like we have this week. With falling temperatures and fast moving water, Snook will hunker down on the bottom and wait for bait to be swept through by the tide, sensing them with their lateral line. Thus your best bet is a bait that will get down fast, jigs and heavy swim baits will most definitely be the ticket. Shrimp anglers will find a good Black drum bite working the pilings, use a knocker rig and about 2oz of lead to get in the zone. Utilize the windy week to get your tackle organized and in shape, if you need new line or a good clean a grease on your reels now is the time. If the showing we got this week of great fishing are signs of things to come, we should have one heck of a winter season ahead of us. Snook Nook opened in 1982 as a family business. Freddie grew up in the business and fishing the Treasure Coast area. Presently, the Snook Nook crew reports on a radio show on WZZR on Saturday morning from 6 a.m. to 8 a.m. called The Fishing Report.

As I write this report the seas are building and will continue to do so through Monday where it’s forecasted 9’ - 11’. With NE winds up to 25 knots, the conditions will make fishing a little difficult over the next few days. If you had a chance to get to the beach this week you were definitely rewarded, Bluefish, Mackerel, Jacks, Blue runners, Ladyfish and even a few pompano bent rods for a solid 5 mornings. Even with a blowout week coming there is always a place to hide and catch a few fish. The great thing about this area is you can always get away from the wind and with this week’s front coming through the river it should be a great location to find plenty of fish.

HOURS OF SERVICE
TREASURE COAST — Congressman Patrick E. Murphy announced a $100,000 federal award for the Treasure Coast Food Bank (TCFB). This grant is administered by the USDA as part of their Local Food Promotion Program to support community food projects, which will allow them to better serve the Treasure Coast community through the establishment of the Florida Agriculture & Nourishment Collaborative, a new food production facility and partnership based in Fort Pierce. “The Treasure Coast Food Bank is a pillar of our community, providing meals and other services to families in need. For the 100,000 area residents – including 35,000 children – that struggle with food insecurity, they don’t just offer a helping hand, but serve as a lifeline,” Rep. Murphy said. “I have been proud to support the great work of the Treasure Coast Food Bank and I know that with this grant, they will further their mission of service in the fight against hunger. I want to congratulate them on this well-deserved award and thank them for their continued service to our community.” “Treasure Coast Food Bank is delighted that the USDA will be making such a significant investment in a project that was specifically purposed to positively impact the health of hundreds of thousands of children, families, and seniors each year,” said Judith Cruz, CEO of Treasure Coast Food Bank. “The Florida Agriculture & Nourishment Collaborative (FANC), as the facility is to be known, will be a catalyst to achieving our goal of infusing millions of pounds of locally-grown produce into the region and of equal importance, establishing new market channels for Florida’s farmers and growers.” This grant award will allow the Treasure Coast Food Bank to launch the Florida Agriculture & Nourishment Collaborative (FANC) – a brand new, fully-equipped food production facility in Fort Pierce, and engage key partners. These stakeholders include 100 Florida farmers, 100 local schools, and more than 250 human service agencies who

But this simple lung cancer screening can increase your odds.
Lung cancer is the number one cancer killer. Symptoms usually appear in the latest stages, when it is the deadliest. Low-dose CT lung cancer screening programs for current and former smokers can detect lung cancer at the earliest stages before symptoms appear, improving the cure rate to as high as 90 percent.

Thanks in part to the American Cancer Society and its Making Strides supporters, breast cancer death rates have decreased 35 percent since 1989, contributing to 224,500 lives saved. Like most people that champion a cause due to real-life circumstances, Horton-Parker is no different. She lost her cousin to breast cancer at age 45 and her mother lost her battle with ovarian cancer that same year. “They were both very strong, brilliant women whose lives were cut much too short,” said Horton-Parker. “I have connected with many of these same women who continue to fight. This drive is beyond my position (with Making Strides). My hope is that no more suffer from this heart wrenching disease.” Individuals interested in walking in the Making Strides Against Breast Cancer 5K may do so individually or by starting their own team, recruiting team members and raising funds by encouraging people to donate. Although there is no registration fee to participate, there is a Pacesetters Club, an exclusive club for top fundraisers, for those that raise at least $2,500. Participants that

STUART — Flutist Gary Arbuthnot is a son of Ireland. Born in Antrim, he attended St. Malachy’s College and then studied at the prestigious Royal Academy of Music in London and McGill University in Montreal. The prize-winning musician, a student of famed flautist James Galway, has worked as principal flute with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic, the Opera de Lyon, and the Sao Paulo State Symphony Orchestra. He is also a favorite on ocean liners around the world. Now Arbuthnot is bringing his show, “Stage and Screen,” to the Lyric Theatre Nov. 7. The show will feature everything from standards, movie titles and traditional Irish tunes. Arbuthnot spoke recently by phone, from the Portuguese island of Madeira where he was performing, about his work and the upcoming show. The musician began playing the guitar when he was 8 or 9. “When it was time to go to grammar school, at age 12, they didn’t teach guitar,” he said. “I went for auditions and the flute seemed of interest. My younger sister played the clarinet and her friend played the flute. I was
interested in the friend,” The teacher showed students how to make a sound from the instrument and passed around the top part of the flute to the five or six students who were auditioning. “I couldn’t get anything (out of it),” he said. “My friend got the flute instead of me, but a month later, he gave it up. I was doing really well in music and the teacher asked if I wanted to give it another go. I ran with it and fell in love with it. It became a part of my life.” The instrument became far more to Arbuthnot when his mother died of breast cancer when he was 12. “My way of dealing with it was to get lost in the music,” he said. “It was my solace. I got better and it started an upward spiral. By 14, I knew my dream was to play the flute and travel the world with it. I was blessed that I knew early on that this was what I wanted to do. There was no other option. My whole life was focused on performing.” As a young man, Arbuthnot performed with a flute band, the 39th Old Boys Flute Ensemble. It was the first band James Galway performed in. Arbuthnot’s first flute teacher had studied with the

Barn Theatre thrills with ‘Laura’ Shelley Koppel STAFF WRITER
skoppel@YourVoiceWeekly.com
STUART – The film “Laura” is a classic film noir from the 1940s. The murder mystery starred Gene Tierney as Laura, Dana Andrews as Mark, the detective and Clifton Webb as Waldo Lydecker, Laura’s mentor. The story began with a book by Vera Gaspary that was also turned into a play. The Barn Theatre presents the play Nov. 6-22 and director Gale Baker spoke about why she loves it so much. “I submitted it to the Barn,” Baker said. “It’s my favorite film noir. It shows a woman out of time. This was a successful woman in the 1940s who was still vulnerable enough for love. I love the fact that it’s black and white. ”That’s what we’re trying to bring to the stage atmospherically, with lighting, sets, costumes and the wonderful dialogue of the ‘30s and ‘40s that titillates and excites. Back then, it was about the dialogue. They usually left something for the imagination for the audience to fill in. The dialogue is smart and sharp and doesn’t talk down to the audience.” The leads include Nicole Leonard as The Girl, Joe Pierson as Mark, and John Avitabile as Waldo. The director noted that each brings something to the role. “Nicole is a consummate actress who is

master and the leader of the flute band was one of Galway’s first teachers. There were so many connections that meeting Galway became inevitable. “When he gave concerts, Galway, came back to meet us,” Arbuthnot said. “Over the years, I attended master classes, saw him privately and was fortunate to sit in on recording sessions, listening and learning. I was a page turner for his pianist and toured the UK as a page turner, watching, observing and chatting. There are a lot of things you learn about preparing and rehearsing that are priceless. I got to be a fly on the wall of one of the world’s greatest musicians. Not many people get to do that. I was fortunate and blessed.” For the Lyric show, Arbuthnot has a program that he developed while working on cruise ships. “It’s a classical pop crossover show,” he said, “It’s very high energy and highly entertaining. There is classical, Celtic, tango, rock and movie music. There’s something for everybody. There is chat and comedy. One of the greatest compliments is when people say, ‘We didn’t know what to expect. We loved it and didn’t know you could do all of that with a flute.’ The flute is the vehicle for providing a fun evening. There is

Gary Arbuthnot Flutist a four-piece band. It’s not just me standing there, playing the flute on my own. Even I would find that boring.

easily directable,” Baker said. “Directing is 90 percent casting. If you can do that, much of the work is done. Joe Pierson was in my play, ‘Pin Curls,’ I saw John Avitabile in a couple of other plays. He just looked so right. When he walked into the audition, I was sold. He brings grandeur to the part. It goes back to casting and getting good actors who don’t mind thinking. The wonderful thing about this cast is they’re really exploring the play and its meaning.” Others in the cast are Marty Dillis, Tyler Sloan, Andrea Mastellone, Slade Walter and Jennifer Sade. Sade is a newcomer to the Barn; the others are veterans. The play is a murder mystery and I’m not going to be the spoiler. A woman named Laura has been murdered and an inspector is called in to investigate the murder. “The play shows how easy it is for men to fall in love with the title character,” Baker said. “The detective investigating her murder falls in love with her picture. She’s mysterious. All men flock to her. He begins to investigate the murder through the men who are in love with her. There are three in the play and he investigates all of them.”
“The play shows how easy it is for men to fall in love with the title character.” Gale Baker director Baker is also a playwright. Her “Pin Curls” was performed at the Barn several seasons ago. She has just finished a musical murder mystery and “Pharmaceutical: the Revusical,” which she calls “a slap in the face to the drug pushers.” She hopes to interest some veterans or veterans’ groups to work with her on a serious musical she has written called “Not Home Yet,” about PTSD. The Barn Theatre, 2400 S.E. Ocean Blvd., Stuart, presents “Laura” .Nov. 6-22. Tickets are $20. For more information, visit the website www.barn-theatre. com or call (772) 287-4884. The next Barn production will be “Sex Please, We’re Sixty,” by Michael and Susan Parker, Jan. 22-Feb. 7.

From a smoky 1920’s Speakeasy to the Bowery of the 1930’s, from a World War II USO to a 1950’s Manhattan supper club, Swinging on a Star perfectly weaves various settings and scenes with some of the most popular songs of a generation. The journey also showcases music from the “Road Movies” starring Bing Crosby and Bob Hope. Songs include: “Road to Morocco,” “Going My Way,” “Moonlight Becomes You,” “Swinging on a Star,” and many more.

I am a year old cutie-pie with stunning green eyes. My velvety soft fur is a mixture of tan, brown and black on the outside and 6 lbs. of love and tenderness on the inside. Lounging in the sunlight, affection and chin scratches I so adore. I am anxious to explore my new life with you!

Full of love, I am a 6 year-old Hound mix gentleman who is not fond of loud noises and thunder. I am a good boy who enjoys sitting in your lap, wiggling my happy 58 lb. body and having lots of fun. I will need help with my medical treatment for heartworms, for which the shelter will pay. I will reciprocate with heartwarming kisses.
