Spring Has<br />

Sprung!<br />

Clocks spring forward on Sunday, <strong>March</strong> 8 giving us<br />

longer beautiful sunny days, spring break brings college<br />

kids home (probably with laundry), spring training for<br />

baseball is in full swing (pardon the pun) in our backyard,<br />

and our perfect weather is just prime for a parade!<br />

The 52nd Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade and Festival<br />

takes place on Saturday, <strong>March</strong> 14. The family friendly parade and festival<br />

gets better every year. Beginning at 11am, there are activities for all<br />

ages. The parade begins at 2pm so get to the parade route early or make<br />

a reservation at a restaurant on the parade route for a front row seat.<br />

Don’t forget to wear green! For more information on the parade and other<br />

festivities read Delray Under $50.<br />

The Achievement Center for Children & Families’ CEO Stephanie Seilbel<br />

is our City Person. This incredible woman raises over five million dollars<br />

a year to support the programs the center offers to all and has over 100<br />

employees as well! Read about this amazing resource we are so lucky to<br />

have in Delray Beach, in our regular feature City People.<br />

Craving a home cooked meal, but don’t want to cook at home? Or maybe<br />

a bit of a slower pace off the <strong>Ave</strong>? Well then Ellie’s 50’s Diner is where<br />

you need to go! This amazing diner offers home cooking with a nostalgic<br />

flair. Decorated just like the name implies – Ellie’s is like stepping back in<br />

time into the 1950s when poodle skirts and Elvis was all the rave! Stop in,<br />

order a “Love Me Tender Cheeseburger Deluxe” or the popular “Only You<br />

Meatloaf” with an old-fashioned chocolate milkshake – YUM!<br />

See you at the Parade! Slainté!<br />

May you have<br />

the hindsight<br />

to know where<br />

you’ve been, the<br />

foresight to know<br />

where you are<br />

going, and the<br />

insight to know<br />

when you have<br />

gone too far.<br />

Quin-what? Quin-who? It’s quinoa, brah! <strong>March</strong> is National Quinoa<br />

Month and is a great time to explore the wonderful opportunities<br />

that quinoa has to offer. Did you know that quinoa is an annual<br />

plant grown as a crop primarily for its edible seeds, which are rich in protein,<br />

dietary fiber, B vitamins, and dietary minerals in amounts greater<br />

than in many grains? This is why it’s the “new” kale and avocado toast,<br />

and has popped up on almost every restaurant menu in town. If you’re<br />

new to the quinoa scene or are anxiously finding new places to get your<br />

seed sustenance, the <strong>Ave</strong>nue is the place to hit. The Office is serving up<br />

their mouthwatering Veggie Burger, which is made with an organic quinoa<br />

and lentil patty, lettuce, tomato, onion confit, cheddar and office sauce for<br />

$17. If you prefer to get your bowl on, head to Whole Green Café and sink<br />

your teeth into their Quinoa Bowl, made with quinoa, tomato, cucumber,<br />

purple cabbage, carrots, avocado, roasted vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower,<br />

asparagus and squash) and a cilantro-lime-yogurt-garlic dressing for


$11.95. If you’re not drooling yet, march you and your appetite over<br />

to Cut432 and enjoy their Grilled Faroe Island Salmon, made with<br />

organic beet and pomegranate quinoa, dill crème fraiche and spiced<br />

apples for $33. Whatever your quinoa pleasure, you’re guaranteed<br />

to come back for seconds. Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.com or<br />

call (561) 243-1077 for complete restaurant information.<br />

I’m sorry, what were you saying? Uh, yes, wait, no, um, maybe?<br />

There’s either a really good chance that these responses sound<br />

family because you’ve heard them, or you’ve said them in a distracted,<br />

I’m-mildly-paying-attention-to-you manner. Well, wakey,<br />

wakey, it’s time to pay attention. <strong>March</strong> is International Listening<br />

Month and is a great reminder to be more present in your daily communications.<br />

In all honesty, you might be missing out on something<br />

important like winning lotto numbers or a love confession! If you<br />

practice daily this month, you can reward your ears with a little fun<br />

listening with Classic Albums Live: Pink Floyd, The Wall at the Old<br />

School Square Pavilion. Pink Floyd’s legendary and controversial<br />

concept album The Wall remains one of the biggest selling albums of<br />

all time, and a major moment in rock music history. From “Another<br />

Brick in the Wall” and “Comfortably Numb” to “Hey You,” you’re invited<br />

to experience this acclaimed album with fresh air, a cool breeze,<br />

and no ceiling for enjoyment. General admission is $20 (bring your<br />

own chair) and premium seating is $40 (reserved seating) so all you<br />

need to do is show up to get down. Founded in 2003 by Toronto musician<br />

Craig Martin, Classic Albums Live has quickly earned a stellar<br />

reputation for perfectly recreating classic albums, recreated live on<br />

stage, note for note, cut for cut. The event is held Friday, <strong>March</strong> 20<br />

and doors open at 6:30pm and music starts at 8pm so plan to arrive<br />

early if you want to get a good spot. Visit www.oldschoolsquare.org<br />

or call (561) 243-7922 to purchase tickets or for more information.<br />

Laughter is definitely the best medicine, but sometimes it can<br />

get lost in the funny sauce if the delivery doctor isn’t up to par.<br />

So when you find a funny friend, neighbor or stranger, keep<br />

him or her in your laughter vault for a rainy day. <strong>March</strong> is Humorists<br />

and Artists Month and is the perfect time to take a cue from stage<br />

presenters on how to get down in funny town. The good people at<br />

the Delray Beach Playhouse have brought you Stage Struck: A Play<br />

by Simon Gray and you’re invited to take a seat and laugh your seat<br />

off. Dubbed a “witty and ingenious thrilled” by the Daily Mail, the<br />

play is a story of Anne O’Neill and Robert Simon’s marriage seven<br />

years ago. Anne was a promising actress and he had given up a failing<br />

career on the stage to become a stage manager in a provincial<br />

theatre. But since marrying, Anne has become a major star on the<br />

London stage, all while Robert’s career has peaked, leading to fallow<br />

periods of unemployment and occasional appearances on television<br />

as a murder victim. Adapting to their new circumstances, Robert<br />

now functions as Anne’s personal assistant and soothes his ego by<br />

indulging in brief affairs with young actresses. In a desperate attempt<br />

to save her marriage, Anne consults a psychiatrist. But when<br />

he advises her to leave her husband, Robert realizes that he only<br />

has two alternatives: to be thrown abruptly onto the street, or to<br />

become a wealthy widower. The question is, does he have the skill<br />

to play the role of real-life murderer? You’ll have to see to find out!<br />

Tickets are $35 per person and there are several evening and matinee<br />

showings throughout <strong>March</strong>. The Delray Beach Playhouse is<br />

located 950 N.W. Ninth St. Visit www.delraybeachplayhouse.com or<br />

20 Stage Struck – Multiple performances.<br />

When Anne O’Neill and Robert<br />

Simon married seven years ago, she<br />

was a promising actress and he had<br />

given up a failing career on the stage to<br />

become a Stage Manager in a provincial<br />

theatre. But since their marriage, Anne<br />

has become a major star on the London<br />

stage; while Robert’s career has<br />

peaked…leading to fallow periods of<br />

unemployment and occasional appearances<br />

on television as a murder victim.<br />

Adapting to their new circumstances,<br />

Robert now functions as Anne’s personal<br />

assistant and soothes his ego by<br />

indulging in brief affairs with young actresses.<br />

In a desperate attempt to save<br />

her marriage, Anne consults a psychiatrist.<br />

But when he advises her to leave<br />

her husband, Robert realizes that he<br />

only has two alternatives: to be thrown<br />

abruptly onto the street…or to become<br />

a wealthy widower. But the question is,<br />

does he have the skill to play the role of<br />

real-life murderer? Enjoy the play London<br />

critics praised as “A witty and ingenious<br />

thrill. DelrayBeachPlayhouse.<br />

The South Florida Garlic Fest<br />

Receives Attention on Jeopardy! Game Show<br />

The South Florida Garlic Fest, fondly referred<br />

to as the “Best ‘Stinkin’ Party in<br />

South Florida” was featured as a question<br />

on the internationally broadcasted show,<br />

Jeopardy! On February 11, <strong>2020</strong>.<br />

Jeopardy! Is an American television game<br />

show created by Merv Griffin. The American<br />

syndicated version of Jeopardy! is also broadcast<br />

throughout the world, with international<br />

distribution rights handled by CBS Studios International.<br />

“The Isle of Wight & Lake Worth, Florida both<br />

have annual festivals honoring this pungent<br />

bulb and its endless potential” was the question<br />

Alex Trebek read aloud to the three contestants.<br />

While thousands of Lake Worth residents and<br />

Seth Groveman, Rolling<br />

Green Elementary<br />

surrounding south Florida cities shouted “garlic!”<br />

at their TV screens, the three Jeopardy!<br />

Contestants struggled to find the answer.<br />

The first contestant to buzz in was Vinny<br />

Byju, a student from Cambridge Massachusetts,<br />

whom incorrectly guessed “what is<br />

horseradish.” The second contestant to buzz<br />

in was Kristyna Ng, a corporate strategist from<br />

Calgary, Alberta, Canada whom incorrectly<br />

guessed “what is onion.” Finally, the third contestant,<br />

Danyelle Long-Hyland, from Ranson,<br />

West Virginia swiftly buzzed in with the correct<br />

answer, “what is garlic.”<br />

The festival now calls Lake Worth its home<br />

after outgrowing its original location in Delray<br />

Beach four years ago. “We love our new<br />

home at John Prince Park,” says Festival Director,<br />

Nancy Stewart-Franzcak. “The city of Lake<br />

Worth and the management team at Parks and<br />

Recreation have welcomed us with open arms<br />

for the last four years and we look forward to<br />

growing this festival with them in the coming<br />

years.,” says Franzcak.<br />

Garlic Fest brings more than a party with its<br />

two-day festival. The economic impact the festival<br />

brings to the city of Lake Worth totals to<br />

$1,276,733.00. To date, over $610,000.00 has<br />

been contributed back to the volunteer organizations<br />

that staff the event. Over 15 groups<br />

comprised of over 500 volunteers give their<br />

time, energy and hearts to the South Florida<br />

Garlic Fest.<br />

One Little Lie<br />

by Colleen Coble<br />

Released <strong>March</strong> 3rd<br />

It started with one little lie. But Jane Hardy<br />

will do everything in her power to uncover<br />

the truth in this gripping new romantic<br />

suspense.<br />

Jane Hardy is appointed interim sheriff in<br />

Pelican Harbor, Alabama, after her father retires,<br />

but there’s no time for an adjustment<br />

period. When her father is arrested for theft<br />

and then implicated in a recent murder, Jane<br />

quickly realizes she’s facing someone out to<br />

destroy the only family she has.<br />

After escaping with her father from a<br />

cult fifteen years ago, Jane has searched relentlessly<br />

for her mother—who refused to<br />

leave—ever since. Could someone from that<br />

horrible past have found them?<br />

Reid Bechtol is well-known for his documentaries,<br />

and his latest project involves<br />

covering Jane’s career. Jane has little interest<br />

in the attention, but the committee who appointed<br />

her loves the idea of the publicity.<br />

Jane finds herself depending on Reid’s<br />

calm manner as he follows her around filming,<br />

and they begin working together to clear<br />

her father. But Reid has his own secrets from<br />

the past, and the gulf between them may be<br />

impossible to cross—especially once her father’s<br />

lie catches up with him.<br />

past and a dangerous secret. The first and<br />

only woman he ever truly failed. Desperate<br />

and on the run, Felicia’s come to plead for his<br />

help. But while Ryan knows that helping her<br />

is the only way to heal old wounds, he also<br />

knows that the mission will not only endanger<br />

the life of the woman he holds most dear,<br />

but will brutally test the deep trust that binds<br />

Jamie and Ryan together.<br />

The Sea Glass<br />

Cottage<br />

by RaeAnne Thayne<br />

Released <strong>March</strong> 17th<br />

From the New York Times bestselling author<br />

RaeAnne Thayne tells the story of an<br />

emotional homecoming that brings hope and<br />

healing to three generations of women.<br />

The life Olivia Harper always dreamed<br />

of isn’t so dreamy these days. The 16-hour<br />

workdays are unfulfilling and so are things<br />

with her on-again, off-again boyfriend. But<br />

when she hears that her estranged mother,<br />

Juliet, has been seriously injured in a car accident,<br />

Liv has no choice but to pack up her life<br />

and head home to beautiful Cape Sanctuary<br />

on the Northern California coast.<br />

It’s just for a few months—that’s what Liv<br />

keeps telling herself. But the closer she gets<br />

to Cape Sanctuary, the painful memories start<br />

flooding back: Natalie, her vibrant, passionate<br />

older sister who downward spiraled into addiction.<br />

The fights with her mother who enabled<br />

her sister at every turn. The overdose<br />

that took Natalie, leaving her now-teenaged<br />

daughter, Caitlin, an orphan.<br />

As Liv tries to balance her own needs with<br />

those of her injured mother and an obstinate,<br />

resentful fifteen-year-old, it becomes<br />

clear that all three Harper women have been<br />

keeping heartbreaking secrets from one another.<br />

And as those secrets are revealed, Liv,<br />

Juliet, and Caitlin will see that it’s never too<br />

late—or too early—to heal family wounds<br />

and find forgiveness.<br />

The Uninhabitable<br />

Earth: Life After<br />

Warming<br />

by David Wallace-Wells<br />

Released <strong>March</strong> 17th<br />

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “The<br />

Uninhabitable Earth hits you like a comet,<br />

with an overflow of insanely lyrical prose<br />

about our pending Armageddon.”—Andrew<br />

Solomon, author of The Noonday Demon<br />

With a new afterword<br />

It is worse, much worse, than you think. If<br />

your anxiety about global warming is dominated<br />

by fears of sea-level rise, you are barely<br />

scratching the surface of what terrors are<br />

possible—food shortages, refugee emergencies,<br />

climate wars and economic devastation.<br />

An “epoch-defining book” (The Guardian)<br />

and “this generation’s Silent Spring” (The<br />

COPYRIGHTED<br />

Washington Post), The Uninhabitable Earth<br />

is both a travelogue of the near future and<br />

a meditation on how that future will look to<br />

those living through it—the ways that warming<br />

promises to transform global politics,<br />

the meaning of technology and nature in the<br />

modern world, the sustainability of capitalism<br />

and the trajectory of human progress.<br />

The Uninhabitable Earth is also an impassioned<br />

call to action. For just as the world was<br />

brought to the brink of catastrophe within the<br />

span of a lifetime, the responsibility to avoid it<br />

now belongs to a single generation – Today’s<br />

generation!

Tennis Injuries:<br />

Cutting Edge Treatments and Prevention Strategies<br />

54 | march <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis) is by far one of the<br />

most prevalent injuries in tennis. It is caused by the microtearing<br />

of the extensor group muscles of the elbow. These<br />

muscles are located on the thumb side of the elbow and allow us<br />

to bring our wrist back and side to side. Scar tissue can form in<br />

the muscle belly which can compress important nerves and blood<br />

vessels. It typically occurs secondarily to the use of an aluminum<br />

racquet, incorrect grip measurement, improper backhand technique,<br />

excess weight of the racquet, and too much tension in the strings.<br />

Rotator cuff tendonitis is also caused by micro-tearing in the<br />

belly of the muscle. The muscles involved are the rotator cuff muscles<br />

of the shoulder which originate in the shoulder blade (scapula)<br />

and attach to the upper arm (humerus). Typically we see this occur<br />

with players who serve with an elbow to side angle of less than 90<br />

degrees. Due to the improper mechanics of the serve it typically<br />

also requires the player to serve repeatedly.<br />

A byproduct of the constant running and cutting in tennis is anterior<br />

(front) knee pain located deep, beneath the knee cap (patella).<br />

The patella fails to track or move correctly within the knee<br />

resulting in frictional forces applied to the lower femur bone and<br />

subsequent braking off of small pieces of cartilage. This can lead to<br />

a condition called chondromalacia patella. Pain is usually experienced<br />

when going up stairs and stopping abruptly while running.<br />

The primary goals in treating these disorders are to reduce inflammation,<br />

break up the fibrotic adhesions (scar tissue), strengthen<br />

surrounding musculature and neurological pathways, and restore<br />

proper joint motion. This entails some simple procedures<br />

including myofascial release, passive and active mobilization,<br />

isometric and isotonic strengthening, and joint manipulation (adjustment).<br />

New cutting edge procedures involve the use of high<br />

power class IV lasers which accelerate tissue healing by nearly<br />

tenfold and the use of mirrors in a technique termed mirror imaging<br />

technique which attempts to strengthen the neurological and<br />

immune pathways in the affected limb. In addition, cross cord applications<br />

and eccentric fast stretching are novel procedures which<br />

decrease the healing time.<br />

In terms of nutrition, supplementing with proteolytic enzymes<br />

and essential fatty acids will help to reduce inflammation and<br />

break down scar tissue. Sticking to an anti-inflammatory, low glycemic<br />

index diet will also help to reduce inflammation and insulin<br />

surges which can promote neurological degeneration<br />

Lastly, prevention is the key to avoiding injury all together. Here<br />

are some key tips to increase your longevity and effectiveness on<br />

the court:<br />

1. Utilize a ceramic or graphite racquet with reduced vibration.<br />

2. Choose a lighter racquet -10.5 - 11.5 oz.<br />

3. Make sure you have a correct grip measurement.<br />

4. Use natural gut strings, which have tension 3-5lbs below what<br />

an athlete is used to.<br />

5. Use proper backhand technique.<br />

6. Warm up prior to playing.<br />

7. Focus on core muscle training.<br />

8. Keep your spine in correct alignment.<br />

9. Strengthen lower extremity musculature.<br />

10. Take multivitamin with plenty of anti-oxidants.<br />

A real cutting edge procedure is termed motor imaging technique.<br />

In essence the athlete visualizes in sets and repetition format,<br />

a learned movement such as the various movements on the<br />

tennis court. The visualization must be very detailed in nature.<br />

Scientifically, the neurological pathways involved in the particular<br />

movement are enhanced and other non-pertinent pathways<br />

inhibited. This activity is gaining great notoriety as many of the<br />

top athletes in the world are incorporating this into their treatment<br />

regimen.<br />

PRP Growth Factors<br />

Most of us have seen the shocking image of Kim Kardashian’s<br />

bloody face promoting the “Vampire facial.” Disregarding all the hype<br />

surrounding it, the actual procedure is revolutionary and is called microneedling<br />

with PRP or Platelet-Rich Plasma. The technology behind the<br />

procedure is using the body’s natural ability to repair damaged tissue<br />

and grow healthy new tissue safely, without unwanted side effects.<br />

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is a preparation of your own blood<br />

that is put into a centrifuge to extract the concentrated content<br />

of platelets and their growth factors. Once prepared, it is<br />

injected into the body or delivered through micro-needling which<br />

makes small channels into the skin using a motorized pen with<br />

micro needles in it. The platelets contained in PRP promotes healing<br />

and regeneration by releasing growth factors. It is the growth<br />

factor cytokines that signal your own body’s stem cells to become<br />

active and respond to the injury of the skin, healing the damaged<br />

cells. Platelet derived growth factors can create new cell growth,<br />

repair old cells that have been damaged through the aging process,<br />

as well as stimulate collagen production.<br />

An even more concentrated and effective form of PRP is now<br />

available from a donated placenta and its amniotic membrane. The<br />

growth factors from the amniotic membrane are isolated and can be<br />

administered just as the PRP but the effects are greater and more effective<br />

from the potent array of growth factors doing the work.<br />

In aesthetics, PRP or growth factors are being used to help regenerate<br />

the skin and speed up healing time from procedures such<br />

as lasers and micro-needling. It also can be directly injected into<br />

the skin to give a small amount of volume but more importantly<br />

improve the quality of the skin in areas like the tear troughs, acne<br />

scars and smile lines. Results can be seen almost immediately - by<br />

a glowing complexion - but the real work that is done on a cellular<br />

level can be fully enjoyed in 8-12 weeks when collagen is formed.<br />

Crepey skin of the neck and chest, and the face can be rejuvenated<br />

and restored to a more youthful appearance.<br />

PRP and growth factors have also been found to promote hair<br />

growth. Amniotic fluid contains cytokines which are signaling<br />

proteins that stimulate cellular activity within the scalp. Injecting<br />

PRP or growth factors stimulate the hair follicle cells into an active<br />

state where they start producing hair again. On a vascular level,<br />

the growth factors have the ability to form new blood vessels as<br />

well as regenerate the old. In doing so they aide the body in delivering<br />

improved blood flow to the scalp or revascularization, so it can<br />

promote more hair regrowth in a nutrient rich environment. Treatments<br />

take about 6 weeks to see a difference and can be retreated<br />

every 12 weeks until desired results are achieved.<br />

Do You Really Need Breakfast?<br />

You may or may not have heard of this concept before<br />

but if you haven’t let me introduce you to Intermittent<br />

Fasting (IF), how it works and why I love it!<br />

When I began learning about this concept, it was difficult<br />

believing this way of eating could be so beneficial. Skipping<br />

breakfast, letting hours go by without eating!? No<br />

way!? But after doing lots of research and practicing Intermittent<br />

Fasting for several years, I can share how IF can make reaching<br />

your fitness goals a bit easier by turning on your body’s fat burning<br />

mode and help you become healthier.<br />

So what type of “diet” is this, might you ask? Well, it’s not a diet<br />

it’s actually a pattern. Intermittent Fasting is an eating pattern that<br />

cycles between periods of fasting and eating. It does not give you particular<br />

foods you should eat, but rather when you should eat. Don’t<br />

let the term “fasting” scare you. Fasting actually allows the body to<br />

function more efficiently and literally helps turn your body into a fat<br />

burning machine. Not only is it super beneficial for fat burning, it has<br />

other amazing health benefits as well. IF is efficient at lowering insulin<br />

resistance (perfect for people concerned about Type 2 Diabetes).<br />

It helps reduce stress and inflammation in the body, which is beneficial<br />

in helping to starve cancer cells. IF also backs the research of<br />

lowering your risk of Alzheimer’s (something that runs on both sides<br />

of my family) and increases brain health and function. Personally, I<br />

think more clearly and have much more energy before I put food in<br />

my body. Go figure, right? The list of health benefits goes on and on.<br />

If you are interested in learning more about these IF health benefits,<br />

I urge you to do some research of your own.<br />

58 | march <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

In addition, IF allows to simplify your eating. I am no longer consumed<br />

with food and what and when I need to be eating. Life just<br />

seems a little simpler when you aren’t worried about breakfast<br />

while getting kids and yourself out of the house. A feat any busy<br />

person can understand. What does skipping breakfast have to do<br />

with all of this? Skipping breakfast extends the amount of time that<br />

you are in the fasting state. While you are sleeping your body is<br />

in a fasting state. That’s why breakfast is called “break-fast.” Skipping<br />

breakfast extends the time your body is in fat burning mode.<br />

Experts recommend fasting for at least 16 hours from the time of<br />

your last meal. So if you ate dinner at 7pm your next meal should<br />

be at 11am the following day. By letting your body “fast” and giving<br />

it a break from being fed constantly it allows for amazing health<br />

benefits to start taking place.<br />

There are several different methods/ways to incorporate Intermittent<br />

Fasting into your lifestyle. This is not a one size fits all type<br />

of plan and there are many different methods to suit individual<br />

needs. Do some research and find a version that will work best with<br />

your needs, goals and lifestyle.<br />

Delray Beach Golf Club<br />

Offering History and Events<br />

for Golfers of All Levels<br />

By Nicol Jenkins | photos by melissa korman<br />

From the very beginning, Delray Beach Golf Club<br />

has been frequented by golf pros and aficionados<br />

because of its rich history and pristine course.<br />

Originally designed by the legendary golf course architect<br />

Donald Ross, then the City of Delray Beach had purchased<br />

land for the course in 1923 and a nine-hole course was officially<br />

opened in 1926. That course continued in operation until<br />

forced to close because of World War II. After reopening the course<br />

in 1945, the City leaders voted to add a second nine holes which<br />

opened in 1950 and was built by renowned architect Dick Wilson.<br />

Lakeview Golf Club, their sister course was built in 1972 at a separate<br />

nearby location.<br />

Touring professionals, on their way to Miami to play would stop<br />

over in Delray to loop the excellent Ross-designed layout. In fact, it<br />

was listed as one of the top ten courses in the country at the time!<br />

As word spread, more and more players and club professionals began<br />

“hanging” at DBGC, including golf legends Tommy Armour and<br />

Betty Jameson, LPGA Hall of Fame member.<br />

that don’t hit the ball as long as some others. There are men’s<br />

and ladies tees to choose from. Delray Beach Golf Club offers 5 sets<br />

of tees, and whether you are professional or just picking up the<br />

game, the golf course can be suited to your game,” added Tommi.<br />

THE BIG APPLE SHOPPING BAZAAR<br />

Introducing<br />

The Big Apple<br />

Salon & Spa Suites<br />

By diane feen | photos by melissa korman<br />

The Big Apple Shopping Bazaar is growing. They<br />

still have a 35,000-square-foot retail footprint on<br />

one of the busiest streets in Palm Beach County.<br />

They still offer merchants and shoppers unique items from<br />

one- of-a-kind shops, and they still have a wonderful café in<br />

the back that serves homemade Mediterranean cuisine.<br />

But there is something new brewing in this amalgam of shops.<br />

Called The Big Apple Salon & Spa Suites, this new outer parameter<br />

of private suites is ready and waiting for new tenants.<br />

Their philosophy to this addition is “Your Space. Your Time.<br />

YOUR SALON!”<br />

And they mean it.<br />

Anyone with an entrepreneurial streak - or a desire to build<br />

their business - can rent a private suite. Each suite comes fully<br />

equipped and professionally designed with the highest standard<br />

Pibbs Industries equipment, Eyevac Pro Floor Vacuum Cleaner and<br />

individual climate control.<br />

Each suite comes with French doors and is available in double or<br />

single size with LED lighting and dimmer chandelier. They also have<br />

decorative wood trimming painted to complement each designer<br />

66 | march <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

suite. It has everything you need to start your business.<br />

You also get a private entrance and the ability to make your<br />

own hours. Just think - you get to keep all the profits other than<br />

a low weekly rent. And, you have the luxury of running your own<br />

business in a modern upbeat space.<br />

“Working in a traditional salon, your earnings are hindered by<br />

commission-structured payouts. Or you end up paying rent for<br />

a chair to follow someone else’s dream,” said Jerry Sosa, General<br />

Manager of Big Apple.<br />

“Instead of putting a percentage of your earnings in someone<br />

else’s pocket, you get to keep the profits. At The Big Apple Salon<br />

& Spa Suites, 100% of Your business goes to You, and the space is<br />

YOURS,” said Sosa.<br />

The benefit of having a salon suite at the Big Apple is that you<br />

get to be an entrepreneur without the risk and expense. You make<br />

your own hours; your own schedule and you can sell any products<br />

you want.<br />

Currently The Big Apple is looking for Nail Techs, Hair Stylists,<br />

and licensed beauty professionals are welcome.<br />

You get complimentary Wi-Fi, after hours security and surveillance<br />

But the most important ingredient to success is Location,<br />

Location, Location. And the Big Apple has just that. They are right<br />

in the heart of Delray Beach, the winner of the “All American City<br />

Award” three times. Over 45,000 cars drive by each day and there<br />

That’s why Mercia Beauty Salon has come aboard the Salon & Spa<br />

Suite. She does treatments to keep hair shiny, straight and smooth,<br />

such as the Influence Treatment. She also does hair wrapping,<br />

temporary color and styling.<br />

There are also 65 shops located under the same roof, bringing<br />

in shoppers and guests. Clients can browse on streets of New York<br />

with names like Canal Street and 5th <strong>Ave</strong>nue. They can shop at<br />

designer boutiques, go to the Jewelry Exchange or have a bite to<br />

eat at the café.<br />

Also new and exciting is their Jewelry Exchange. There are 50<br />

prime retail spots waiting for your jewelry business. Big Apple is<br />

looking to rent shops for those who sell Fine Jewelry, offer Jewelry<br />

Repair, Buyers and Sellers of Jewelry or any other jewelry related<br />

SoFlo Home Realty<br />

Roberta Lucas Can Help<br />

You Find Your New Home<br />

By nicol jenkins | photos by melissa korman<br />

For over 13 years, Roberta Lucas of SoFlo Home Realty has<br />

been assisting her clients in finding the home of their dreams.<br />

The realtor has specialized in the South Florida real estate<br />

market and has recently expanded to selling a new construction<br />

project called Delray Beach Luxury Homes, built by her business<br />

partner and husband George Lucas of Tropical Custom Builders.<br />

This luxurious development consists of 13 single family new<br />

construction homes conveniently located at 830 N Lake <strong>Ave</strong>nue,<br />

Delray Beach, minutes from the beach and <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue.<br />

Transitional and contemporary models come with high-end<br />

finishes and appliances, 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, 4,398 square<br />

feet of total area and 3,123 square feet under air. Homes come with<br />

covered patio, PGT impact windows and doors, 2-car garage, infinity<br />

pool and private manicured backyard. Offering the best in urban<br />

and coastal living, and starting at $1,799,000. For more information,<br />

visit www.delrayluxuryhomes.net.<br />

“Our goal is to make all of our customers enjoy a commercial<br />

graded built home in one of the hottest spots on earth, Delray<br />

Beach,” said Roberta.<br />

Her passion for real estate started when she was only 19 years<br />

old. As a freshman at Philadelphia Community College, Roberta<br />

70 | march <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

Upstairs Loft and Balcony<br />

decided to buy her first property, after she decided to get her real<br />

estate license, and the rest is history.<br />

“I started selling homes in Northeast Philly. In the meantime, my<br />

husband and I crossed paths. He already owned a few properties<br />

and encouraged me to buy more. He was always very mechanically<br />

inclined to fix anything and everything. We got married in 2005 and<br />

started flipping homes in the city of Philadelphia. I dominated the<br />

Brazilian market and sold houses to many people aside from my<br />

flips,” she said.<br />

In 2010 after having two beautiful children, they decided to move<br />

to South Florida, and Roberta began selling properties from Miami<br />

to Delray Beach. Her last year as an agent working for an outside<br />

brokerage was 2017. She left One Sotheby’s International Realty<br />

and started working for SoFlo Home Realty, a company owned by<br />

her husband, George Lucas. “He has done a lot to improve the cities<br />

of Fort Lauderdale and Oakland Park, including winning the prize of<br />

building the most beautiful house in Fort Lauderdale,” said Roberta.<br />

Roberta finds it rewarding to help her clients sell their homes. She is<br />

currently listing a beautiful waterfront home located at 1517 SE 12th<br />

Court, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33316, MLS#: F10152969, for $3.9 million,<br />

in Lauderdale Harbor, next to the Yacht Club in Fort Lauderdale.<br />

“I love helping my clients buy or sell a home. It is more about<br />

satisfying their needs. The deal can get complicated, if representing<br />

the buyer, I want to make sure they are not getting too stressed out,<br />

and the same with the seller. I really work with my clients to help<br />

them,” said Roberta.<br />

Her clients praise Roberta for their hard work and dedication to<br />

helping them with all their real estate needs.<br />

“As Connor and I approach our six month anniversary in this<br />

beautiful place we call home, I wanted to express our appreciation<br />

to the woman who made it all happen for us. It’s not everyday<br />

that you partner with a professional as invested in the process as<br />

you are. We were impressed with the market knowledge you demonstrated,<br />

and the positive approach you applied toward finding<br />

exactly what we wanted. We are posting this message to express<br />

our gratitude for a job well done and in doing so share with others<br />

our experience with others who may be considering their real<br />

estate needs. It’s our pleasure to acknowledge a real woman out<br />

there making it happen for those who are fortunate enough to be<br />

Family Area<br />

in the know when it is time to make one of life’s bigger decisions.<br />

We recommend Roberta Lucas wholeheartedly, and suggest you do<br />

yourself a favor and experience the difference that Roberta brings<br />

to the table,” said the Katris’.<br />

“I have had the pleasure of knowing Roberta professionally for<br />

several years. We met while she was assisting my son and his wife<br />

purchase their first home. I was immediately impressed with her<br />

expertise, professionalism and desire to find the exact home that<br />

my son and daughter-in-law wanted. She facilitated over the difficult<br />

task of finding the combination of a condo they would love<br />

and could afford. Eventually she was not only able to find their<br />

perfect home, she assisted them with the complicated issues of<br />

finance, HOA approval and finding suitable contractors to make<br />

their new home perfect. Several years later, our family situation<br />

changed, and we welcomed an addition to our family which necessitated<br />

my move from Orlando to Fort Lauderdale and subsequent<br />

purchase of suitable property for myself and other son. It<br />

was never in doubt that we would ask Roberta for her assistance<br />

and, as before, she went over and above to find a condo that fit<br />

my needs and financial situation. Fast forward two years and,<br />

this time, we called on Roberta who was no longer just our agent<br />

but a valued friend to help us in what can only be called a chess<br />

game of property. The move involved selling one condo, renting<br />

the other while finding two new perfect homes. Roberta accepted<br />

the challenge and even though the process became much more<br />

complicated than expected; my dear friend Roberta accomplished<br />

everything we needed of her. I was completely impressed by her<br />

knowledge and professionalism. She accomplished everything<br />

with grace and good humor further proving what I already knew:<br />

Roberta is the agent everyone wants but more importantly the<br />

one everyone needs on their complicated, exhausting journey in<br />

property sales and purchases,” stated M. Corsino.<br />

BOLO<br />

Be On the Lookout for Leggings,<br />

Donna Jo Skorts & Much More!<br />

BY Nicol Jenkins | photos by melissa korman<br />

More than just leggings, BOLO - Be On the<br />

Lookout offers a unique and exciting concept<br />

store in the heart of Downtown Delray Beach.<br />

Maria Nelkin, owner of Bolo Boutique<br />

This is the only boutique store on <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue where you<br />

can find all styles of fitness, yoga, workout and casual wear<br />

in one location with a personalized shopping experience.<br />

All the latest trends in active wear - including Dona Jo skorts -<br />

can be found at BOLO. They are constantly evolving and bringing in<br />

new brands each season. There are new collections coming in every<br />

week. Shoppers can find high-end brands such as Onzie and Noli.<br />

Noli’s fabrics are all from Italy and the prints are amazing.<br />

“We offer such a wide range of active wear to choose from, and<br />

a diverse selection of colors and styles,” said owner Maria Nelkin.<br />

BOLO has everything you need to get you inspired, from a variety<br />

of brands, colors, fabrics and excellent customer service.<br />

“We provide our customers with absolute service,” said Nelkin.<br />

The store has a wide variety of active wear, yoga wear, casual<br />

wear and accessories to look good while you are working out or<br />

strolling down the <strong>Ave</strong>nue.<br />

BOLO is now in its seventh year of business in Delray Beach;<br />

having transitioned to the fitness concept store three years ago and<br />

business has been booming ever since. Owner Maria Nelkin noticed<br />

that the residents and visitors to Delray Beach were wearing more<br />

fashion forward active wear around the beach town. Since there<br />

wasn’t a store that offered this kind of fashion on the <strong>Ave</strong> she<br />

decided to try something new to the area.<br />

“People in Delray Beach wear active wear all the time; they are<br />

either working out, walking or they simply want to look like they<br />

work out. We are extremely unique to the <strong>Ave</strong>nue. There is no other<br />

store that offers only active wear. We are the only one in the area,” said<br />

Nelkin. “Our customers really enjoy seeing the different collections.<br />

We get new collections every week, new styles and new colors.”<br />

Unlike big chain stores, BOLO offers only top-quality brands and<br />

merchandise made in the USA and Brazil. The store has a wide<br />

selection of active wear and accessories including skorts for tennis,<br />

golf, or simply just walking, yoga balls and mats, colorful leggings,<br />

sunglasses, unique jewelry, candles, Blush underwear, tees, books<br />

on health and fitness and much more!<br />

The product lines include the best quality designers: skorts from<br />

Dona Jo, active wear and leggings from Liquido, Terez, Onzie, Noli,<br />

Freyrs Sunglasses, Jewelry from Silver and Sage in Arizona, Blush<br />

underwear direct from Canada, Lipsmart, Havaianas flip flops,<br />

Yoga design lab mats and accessories, their own label of Be On the<br />

Lookout t-shirts, and much more. All merchandise is anti-sweat,<br />

UVB/UVA protection, and anti-bacterial.<br />

Maria says the new collection for <strong>March</strong> is colorful and amazing!<br />

The store has an exclusive one-of-a-kind Anthony Lent<br />

jewelry line from New York. Anthony Lent is a high-end fine<br />

silver, gold and platinum jewelry brand for men and women.<br />

Anthony Lent has been handcrafting fine jewelry for 50 years,<br />

based on sculptural creations. All the jewelry is manufactured<br />

and designed in the US, and can be found exclusively at BOLO<br />

- Be On the Lookout.<br />

Besides having the best quality, the boutique store also<br />

offers a unique shopping experience.<br />

“What I find most rewarding about owning the store is<br />

customer satisfaction. Seeing the customer come into the<br />

store and have a fun, enjoyable experience, this is what it is all<br />

about. We want our customers to enjoy shopping in our store.<br />

We play great music and our staff is relaxed and always ready<br />

to help our customers,” said Nelkin.<br />

The owner has much experience in the retail business.<br />

Hailing from Australia, she worked for Chanel and Christian<br />

Dior. She then opened two boutiques in Italy, where she<br />

manufactured her own line of products, before opening a<br />

store in Miami. When she came to Delray Beach, she fell in love<br />

with the town and decided to open BOLO and has changed the<br />

concept of active wear in Delray Beach.<br />

“We have had a positive impact on the street. We brought<br />

something new to <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue that wasn’t here. Delray<br />

Beach is really a casual beach town and people want to feel<br />

comfortable but still want to look good,” she said.<br />

Customers praise the owner and staff about their customer service.<br />

“The staff are the best. Knowledgeable, respectful, and<br />

make the customer feel like they are in their living room,” said<br />

a happy customer.<br />

Another customer described Bolo as a “Fashion forward<br />

Boutique on the <strong>Ave</strong>! Great prices, super friendly staff!”<br />

Be On the Lookout at the store for their new merchandise<br />

and accessories so you can always look your best while on<br />

<strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue.<br />

COCO GAUFF<br />

COPYRIGHTED<br />

THE HOME COURT ADVANTAGE<br />

Delray Goes Cuckoo For Coco<br />

By diane feen | photos by Andrew Patron - Delray Beach Open by VITACOST.com<br />

There was a buzz in the air at the Exhibition<br />

Tennis match at the Delray Tennis Center<br />

before opening day of the Delray Beach Open.<br />

76 | march <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com


The line at the Ticket office snaked down the pavement, and the<br />

bright lights cast a halo over Coco Gauff’s first appearance in<br />

Delray after beating Venus Williams at Wimbledon.<br />

To say that Coco has done well is an understatement. To say she is<br />

the next tennis phenom is more appropriate. You could tell not only<br />

by her miraculous wins at Wimbledon and the Australian Open, but<br />

by the hysteria surrounding Coco’s appearance.<br />

After a doubles match that pitted Johan Kriek and Vince Spadea<br />

against Mikael Pernfors and Baghdatis, the seats began filling up. By<br />

the time Coco was to set to play in center court almost every seat in<br />

the stadium was filled – all 5,544.<br />

The enormous showing (on a windy intermittent rainy day) was<br />

not because it was the only female tennis match at the ATP but because<br />

Coco was in the house. The 15-year-old Delray girl has become<br />

a legend – one of victory, determination and talent.<br />

Her opponent, Estela Perez-Somarriba, is the current NCAA champion<br />

and a senior at University of Miami. The two volleyed so beautifully<br />

that birds overhead must have wondered how a human could<br />

send a ball in flight so majestically.<br />

The game was riveting. Both girls were young and tenacious with<br />

90-mile-per-hour serves and a voracious appetite for covering their<br />

tennis turf. Balls that swiftly glided by the net had everyone in awe,<br />

and each win for Coco seemed like a win for all 5,544 in attendance.<br />

It was not a game of dueling swords, instead it was a fast-paced<br />

reckoning of force between two compadres. It was Delray Beach -<br />

Coco’s home turf. Which is why every time Coco scored a point loud<br />

cheers rang out from the stands. It was Coco time and the thunder of<br />

applause and nods filled the rarified air.<br />

Though Perez-Somarriba had a cheering squad of her own, it<br />

seemed like one big happy Coco family. And in a way it was. Coco’s<br />

family came with her (mom Candi, dad Corey and brothers Codey<br />

and Cameron) and for one hour and 30 minutes it felt like we were<br />

all part of her extended family.<br />

That’s just the way Coco wanted it. “It feels great to play in front of<br />

family and friends. Also, the city of Delray has been supporting me<br />

since the beginning. It was good to give them the chance to see me<br />

play,” Coco told a reporter.<br />

It sure was. After Coco’s victory, 6-3, 6-3, there was a ceremony with<br />

local officials and a short autograph frenzy. As Coco left the stadium<br />

everyone cheered and clapped for the 15-year-old hometown hero.<br />

Cameras flashed and cell phones were whipped out in her direction.<br />

Coco mania continued outside where she signed balls that were<br />

tossed out randomly to the crowd. As everyone stood behind metal<br />

gates vying for the right spot, it got a bit frenetic. For a moment it<br />

seemed as though there was a rock star in the house – but the thunderous<br />

chant was a distinct: “Coco…Coco…Coco!”<br />

Far from the maddening crowd there were booths selling their<br />

wares and giving out brochures. If you wanted a solar roof or a hoagie<br />

you were in luck, but if you wanted to shake Coco’s hand, it was<br />

a bit impossible.<br />

What was not impossible was watching all the home-town glee.<br />

“It was so exciting to watch a Delray Beach native, who learned to<br />

play on these very courts, return to play and win tonight at her exhibition<br />

match for the Delray Beach Open. The crowds were phenomenal,<br />

and Coco didn’t disappoint,” said Mayor Shelly Petrolia, who<br />

flipped a coin to see which player would serve first.<br />

The mayor wasn’t the only person caught up in Coco mania.<br />

City Commissioner Ryan Boylston saw the energetic sparks flying<br />

over the courts too. “Coco brought out every corner of our community<br />

and filled that stadium with the real true Delray Beach. It was an<br />

incredible sight,” said the CEO and Founder of 2TON.<br />

The exhibition was the first-ever women’s match at the Delray<br />

Beach Open, and the first to have yellow rubber balls with lawyer<br />

Lee Cohen’s image thrown out into the crowd.<br />

Just a year ago not many people had heard of Coco Gauff. Though her<br />

grandparents Yvonne and Eddie are fixtures in the educational system<br />

and youth baseball, Coco was not a household name until last year.<br />

It was after she qualified to play at Wimbledon (and beat Venus<br />

Williams) that Coco mania was born. Now, at 15-years-old, Coco has<br />

entered the rarified world of celebrities with one name like – Cher,<br />

Madonna, Beyoncé and Drake.<br />

She was not only the youngest tennis player to qualify for Wimbledon<br />

in the Open era, but her matches were the most watched in the<br />

US. And like her role models Serena and Venus Williams Coco has her<br />

sights set on hitting the high notes of tennis royalty.<br />

But, if you ask those who attended last month’s exhibition game, it<br />

seems she already has. “Coco is so focused, poised and talented. I’ve<br />

seen professional tennis players before, but Coco is a winner we’ll<br />

see for many many years to come,” said Bob Antoville, pre-needs advisor<br />

at Eternal Light Memorial Gardens.<br />

Leading with Dignity<br />

Stephanie Seibel is at a<br />

loss for words when asked<br />

to describe herself. But<br />

others in her orbit are not.<br />

The CEO of Achievement Centers for Children & Families has<br />

cleared a lot of brush to make a smooth landing for children<br />

and families in Delray Beach.<br />

Nancy Hurd created this epicenter of learning and love in Delray<br />

and Seibel took the reins and is galloping forward.<br />

One could say she had mighty shoes to fill.<br />

But Seibel has risen to the challenge.<br />

“Stephanie is driven to be the best she can be. She’s makes her<br />

employees feel wanted, welcome; and with her help and encouragement<br />

- to achieve even better results. Stephanie has succeeded beyond<br />

even my great expectations,” said Tom Murphy, board member<br />

for 26 years and former president of the board of ACCF.<br />

To meet Seibel, you might mistake her for an exuberant intelligent<br />

soccer mom. But looks can be deceiving.<br />

Yes, she is a great mom. Her two teenage daughters are thriving.<br />

Olivia is a talented singer and gymnast, and Makenzie models and<br />

plays volleyball.<br />

Both children – and her husband Dale – have duties relegated by<br />

the calendar and not the full moon.<br />

It makes one wonder, who is this petite woman with the engaging<br />

eyes and perky personality?<br />

“My skill is building strong teams and connecting with people.<br />

I am also a good listener and I care about the people I work with,”<br />

said Seibel, who was born in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania.<br />

Seibel’s dad was a plastics engineer who moved the family<br />

around Pennsylvania and Ohio a few times. She graduated from<br />

Ohio University and went to graduate school at Slippery Rock University.<br />

Looking for adventure she attended a job fair in Chicago and<br />

ended up coming to South Florida.<br />

Her first job in Florida was as Student Activities Coordinator at<br />

Lynn University. From there she became the Event Services Coordinator<br />

for Broward Center for the Performing Arts. But it was her position<br />

as Associate Director at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital<br />

that opened her eyes to the world of non-profit work.<br />

“I really enjoy working in non-profit organizations. You feel like<br />

you’re contributing to the greater good of the community.”<br />

You bet she does. Ask anyone who has worked with Seibel<br />

and they will tell you how her passion is the underlayment for<br />

a solid foundation. “Stephanie is a great person. She is goal oriented<br />

and gives you space to perform your best. When she sets<br />

her mind on something, she gets it done. She’s a terrific boss,”<br />

said CFO Michel Gaber.<br />

Seibel is the product of her past. She learned about coordinating<br />

all the moving parts and building good teams at The Broward Center.<br />

She credits that job with teaching her the importance of communication<br />

and understanding other people’s perspectives.<br />

And with 100 employees and a $5 million budget Seibel needs<br />

to be nimble on her feet, yet contemplative and deliberate in her<br />

actions. As CEO, she secured new government contracts and donations<br />

of over $5 million. They also received funding for crisis and<br />

economic stabilization and a teen-mentoring program.<br />

But those accomplishments do not even scratch the surface of<br />

her imprint on this village of veracity. Their family strengthening<br />

program is pivotal in changing lives and is a hub for community<br />

collaborations. She has made infrastructure upgrades for security,<br />

databases, crisis response, IT and playground renovations.<br />

With two satellite campuses and the main campus, the ACCF is<br />

constantly buzzing with activity. Children are everywhere dancing,<br />

drumming, studying and playing.<br />

True to her humility and deference to a higher source, Seibel is<br />

rare to take credit for much of it. “Our success is a reflection of the<br />

talent and skills of our employees and team. People here are motivated<br />

by a desire to help. My job is to coordinate the moving parts<br />

and make sure they have what they need.”<br />

And with a degree in psychology Seibel is a student of people<br />

with a minor in empathy. In weekly meetings they share two sides<br />

to the same coin of existence. “We start our meetings talking about<br />

our personal best and business best. This helps build relationships.<br />

It sure does. It also cements the teamwork in team. “You can often<br />

judge the strength and quality of a leader by observing their team.<br />

Stephanie has an amazing team who truly finds joy in what they do,<br />

it is clear that they respect Stephanie at a very deep level. I see this<br />

same dynamic from board members who are deeply committed to<br />

Stephanie and the agency,” said Michael Neal, CEO of Kast Construction<br />

and VP of the ACCF Board.<br />

When it comes to the origin of her nature the tree has deep roots.<br />

She inherited her father Jack’s work ethic and acts of selfless service<br />

(he even renovated her home). Her grandfather, who owned an auto<br />

repair and gas station, was notorious for his boisterous nature and<br />

helpful countenance. And her mother Annette is a consummate volunteer<br />

with a business degree.<br />

“Growing up, my mom brought food and supplies for the classroom.<br />

She would give supplies to the teachers for children who<br />

didn’t have them. She was awarded the 2019 St. Jude’s Dream Home<br />

Volunteer of the Year.”<br />

It’s not easy to get this historical Seibel data. She seems to relish<br />

sharing the lighter details of her existence. “I love to ride roller<br />

coasters and explore cities with a lot of history – Savannah, St. Augustine,<br />

Portland and Seattle.”<br />

Though she is reluctant to talk about herself, others in the community<br />

are effusive about her talent. “The pressure of keeping children<br />

safe in today’s environment is enormous. Stephanie faces this challenge<br />

every day with equanimity and incredible skill,” adds Murphy.<br />

You could say Seibel embodies the words of John Maxwell. “Leadership<br />

is not about titles, positions, or flow charts. It is about one life<br />

influencing another.”<br />

Thank you Stephanie. Your path is strewn with silent awes and<br />

loud cheers.<br />

“True Love wAys” Turkey<br />

Look no more. Ellie’s 50’s Diner is guaranteed to take you to<br />

your happy place. If loneliness is an epidemic than Ellie’s is<br />

what your doctor would prescribe to eliminate it.<br />

It’s not just the black and white linoleum floors, jukebox and<br />

poodle skirts. It’s the smiles, laughter and laidback atmosphere<br />

that’s filled this restaurant with natural light (from the outside)<br />

and a lightness of being on the inside.<br />

It’s also a quiet force for the present with a historical past. For 29<br />

years Ellie’s has been serving homemade comfort food that fills the<br />

heart and the stomach. Many of their customers are regulars – and<br />

proudly pronounce Ellie’s as the sweet spot in the gusty winds of life.<br />

Folks like Bob Alsteen and his wife Janet. “We’ve been eating<br />

here for 20 years and come twice a week for dinner and sometimes<br />

breakfast. All the food is fantastic, and we love the home cooking,<br />

especially the meatloaf and mashed potatoes,” said Bob, who is convinced<br />

that eating at Ellie’s keeps you young.<br />

On Tuesday nights Ellie’s becomes a throwback to summers in<br />

Cape Cod. That’s because Tuesday night is Lobster Night. A time<br />

when Easterners and Lobster lovers cross paths in their quest to<br />

94 | march <strong>2020</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />

Ellie’s 50’s Diner<br />

Good Food Good Vibes<br />

Do you long for the good<br />

old days? Want a place to<br />

eat that will fill you with<br />

joy and contentment?<br />

1 1/2 lb Lobster on Tuesday Night Special<br />

crack open the sweet meat of Maine Lobster. The dinner comes<br />

with corn on the cob and red potatoes and seems to lighten up the<br />

mood from 4:00pm on.<br />

People like Jill Latorella, from Maine, is bullish on Ellie’s lobsters<br />

and lobster night. “We are from Maine and these lobsters are<br />

cooked perfectly. I come a couple of times a week and I like everything<br />

here.” Her sister Debbie Madden is also devouring a lobster<br />

and declares it “delicious.”<br />

There is a reason why Ellie’s is packed to the rafters most<br />

nights, especially on Tuesdays. The food is good, the service is excellent<br />

and there are few owner-operated restaurants with homemade<br />

food. Ellie and her husband Bob are often on the premises<br />

to greet customers and make sure the culinary ship is sailing at<br />

the right speed.<br />

“Ellie’s has always been about family. We get choked up thinking<br />

about the number of people the restaurant has touched over the<br />

years. Bob and I are so thankful for our loyal guests and support<br />

from the community,” said Ellie, who embodies the style and attitude<br />

of the 50’s (a la Sandra Dee).<br />

Blueberry Pie a le Mode “Only You” Meatloaf “I remember You” sAlmon Dinner<br />

Ellie’s is open every day of the week with a full menu of favorites<br />

that bring back the good old days. Their fresh Roasted Turkey<br />

Breast (with stuffing, gravy and cranberry sauce) is wonderful, and<br />

Friday to Sunday nights they serve juicy Prime Rib with Potato, veggies<br />

and soup.<br />

Thursday is the perfect night to fulfill your BBQ Rib cravings.<br />

You get a full rack of Ribs with a savory sauce, fries and homemade<br />

coleslaw. Monday is Pot Roast day with potato, fresh vegetables and<br />

soup, and all day Friday is Fish Fry Day.<br />

Their homemade Meatloaf is wonderful – moist and tasty, and<br />

their Burgers are made with fresh Ground Sirloin (with or without<br />

cheese, bacon, mushrooms, homemade chili or cheddar cheese<br />

and onions).<br />

The variety of choices at Ellie’s will make you want to come every<br />

day (some people do). Breakfast is served until 2pm and their selection<br />

runs from fluffy buttermilk pancakes to savory French Toast<br />

(with maple syrup, bacon, ham or sausage), Eggs Benedict or Eggs<br />

Florentine with sautéed spinach and omelets.<br />

Lunch is also a celebration at Ellie’s. The place is buzzing with retirees,<br />

local businesspeople and tourists who come for the vibe and<br />

the verve. The selection of homemade favorites includes: Turkey,<br />

Ham, Swiss cheese and Russian dressing, and the Patti Melt (burger)<br />

grilled with onion and cheese on rye and Burgers with toppings.<br />

There are Pita sandwiches, (Cheesy Turkey, Veggie, Chicken or Tuna<br />

Melt), Salads, homemade Soups, grilled specialties and Hoagies.<br />

Whether you go to Ellie’s in the morning or evening you can dine<br />

on their front patio, where the sun gleams from varying angles.<br />

With a 50’s style seating and umbrellas, it’s a refreshing experience.<br />

Part of that experience includes desserts such as ice cream (including<br />

the world’s smallest hot fudge sundae), pies, cakes, homemade<br />

brownies, milkshakes, egg creams and more.<br />

They also cater wedding receptions, rehearsal dinners, Bar and<br />

Bat Mitzvahs, engagement parties, grand openings, fundraisers,<br />

birthday parties, festivals and church functions.<br />

But the ball really gets rolling in the Flamingo Room out back.<br />

Each month (during season) is a live entertainment dinner show.<br />

Last month was a Beatles Show and on <strong>March</strong> 13th is the popular<br />

Neil Diamond tribute by Neil Zirconia. The show is electric with<br />

wonderful music and includes buffet dinner, dessert and coffee. Ellies<br />

also has a full liquor bar.<br />

“You can eat here 30 days in a row and not eat the same thing<br />

twice,” said owner Bob Smela, co-owner of Ellie’s with wife Ellie.<br />

A lot has happened in their 29 years of cooking, catering and<br />

culling together homemade dishes. It all started in 1982 when they<br />

started Ellie’s Deli with take-out salads, sandwiches and meats.<br />

They added lunch trucks that went around town selling food. After<br />

eight years they opened Ellie’s 50’s Diner on Federal Highway.<br />

Bob and Ellie have created a beautiful spot in the sun where<br />

friendships are cherished, appetites are fulfilled, and family is front<br />

and center. People go to Ellie’s from all over the globe and dine in<br />

familiarity and splendor.<br />

“It’s been 29 years, and we say ‘Thank You’ from the bottom of<br />

our hearts. Without you none of this would have been possible.<br />

Some of our customers come to eat here right from the airport. We<br />

are honored to be part this tradition.”<br />

misc | ask the petxpert<br />

BY Bill Piechocki and Dr. Diane Sudduth, DVM<br />

What Are the True<br />

Facts for A Healthy Pet?<br />

Our daily challenges with any health issues are always to find<br />

viable information to discern factual health plans. If you<br />

have ever done a Google search for a health issue or question<br />

about the best way to feed or treat your pet on the natural side,<br />

it could drive you insane! Because of so much inaccurate information<br />

out there, it can cause much confusion.<br />

Our goal has always been to get our readers to think, question<br />

and resolve the best health solutions for their pets. These solutions<br />

involve your decisions on the foods and dietary decisions you have<br />

made, the medical plans you decided on including heartworm and<br />

flea prevention programs. It is imperative to understand that any<br />

drugs prescribed are not a preventive program but a treatment for<br />

a problem that your pet may potentially get.<br />

We have seen effective results in doing alternative testing in revealing<br />

improved health when we not only applied the real food<br />

switch but also added very specific foods, herbs, and botanicals.<br />

Tests for blood, hair and other newer technology verify that we are<br />

entering a newer realm for pet health.<br />

As professionals we also deal with obtaining the real facts. So<br />

much of a Google search is about paid results for the source and<br />

real factual information may be hidden because of financial interest.<br />

We often dig deep into studies and articles, many from top veterinary<br />

schools only to have them “disappear” in conjunction with<br />

the appearance of grants and endowments from interested parties<br />

such as pet food or pharmaceutical concerns.<br />

Real healthy pets start with you the pet parent. We must take a<br />

very proactive approach and believe with our eyes the results of<br />

our efforts. That means we must possess an enhanced knowledge<br />

of what healthy and normal are. Conditions such as vomiting and<br />

diarrhea are not illness but rather housekeeping. Many times, it can<br />

be a symptom of imbalances and toxins within the body. Food is the<br />

transport vehicle for removing these harmful substances. It is not<br />

the cause, but rather the body’s method of remedying an issue. We<br />

need to look beyond the food to identify all the other factors and<br />

behaviors that contribute to these conditions.<br />

Did you ever wonder why if you walk your pet and suddenly, they<br />

avoid a particular lawn or when you wash their bed, they won’t use<br />

it? What has changed? Could it be the lawn chemicals that were<br />

sprayed or an ingredient in your laundry detergent? Has your pet<br />

ever seemed to be “off” after you gave them their monthly pill, topical<br />

drops or latest injection? Did you do your homework to understand<br />

why the body is reacting against these things?<br />

We tend to believe labels, advertising, and advice that assure us<br />

of safe and effective results but what does this really mean? Daily<br />

we see advertising for medication that will “help” a condition that<br />

is followed by a strong warning that says “may cause.” Why do<br />

many only believe the “help” part and ignore or discount the “may<br />

cause” part?<br />

We have to remember that our pets communicate to us by their<br />

body language and reactions, not through an understandable verbalization<br />

like us. Research and learn what health and normal look<br />

like. Question ingredients, warnings and reactions in the products<br />

you use or give to them. Actions truly speak louder than words. Be<br />

the best pet parent you can be.<br />
