This elegant island inspired restaurant is the perfect antidote<br />
for whatever ails you. The food is French Vietnamese,<br />
and the décor is simply out of this world.<br />
Tropical greenery and palm trees soften the blow of reality,<br />
and large colorful murals paint a picture of a life well lived.<br />
There are cocktail lounges reminiscent of Hollywood’s<br />
golden era and plush sofas. Island music serenades you and<br />
their signature cocktails are abundant.<br />
Restaurateurs Rick Wahlstedt and Joe King’s goal was to<br />
create an ambience that evokes a distinctive flair that resonates<br />
with its buzzy beachfront vibe.<br />

Bikes for Tikes Program<br />
The joys of summertime bike rides will be made possible for<br />
hundreds of local kids thanks to the Boca West Children’s Foundation’s<br />
(BWCF) annual Bikes for Tikes program. Bikes for Tikes<br />
provides a bike and helmet to children who may not have the opportunity<br />
to experience the rite of passage of owning a bicycle.<br />
“Our recipients will include students from Roots & Wings who<br />
reach their target reading level during the school year, as well as<br />
Pre-K graduates from the YMCA and Fuller Center,” said Pamela<br />
Weinroth, Executive Director/COO of Boca West Children’s Foundation.<br />
“The generosity and support we receive from the community<br />
makes a world of difference in a child’s life!”<br />
The campaign is kicking off now as summertime nears and members<br />
of the community are invited to support the program. A donation<br />
of $160 will provide a child with a bike and helmet.<br />
“Seeing the joy on the kids’ faces as they receive their bikes is<br />
truly priceless and is a testament to the impact that this program<br />
has on these children’s lives,” said Richard Zenker, Board Chair of<br />
the Boca West Children’s Foundation.<br />

Cruiser Palooza<br />
<strong>April</strong> 29th – 5pm-10pm at the Old School Square Pavilion<br />
The return of the annual Cruiser<br />
Palooza fundraising event, in which<br />
our Delray Beach community comes together<br />
to support Cruise Bogle and his<br />
cause to support others in need.<br />
Cruiser Palooza never disappoints in providing a fun-filled evening<br />
under the stars, surrounded by your neighbors, family and<br />
friends, with live music from The Resolvers & Vibes Farm, food<br />
trucks, drinks, and a silent auction.<br />
The event is returning to the Old School Square Pavilion at 51 N<br />
Swinton <strong>Ave</strong>. Delray Beach, FL 33444.<br />
For those of you not aware, 14 years ago, at age 19, Cruise went<br />
skim-boarding at a local beach with his friends and sustained a C4<br />
spinal cord injury, paralyzing him from the chest down.<br />
The annual event continues to provide Cruise a tremendous<br />
source of emotional, as well as financial support for his current and<br />
future needs.<br />
Join us this year, in the spirit of giving back and supporting those<br />
in need within our community!!<br />

The Achievement Centers for Children & Families (ACCF) has<br />
launched a Black Literacy Program in its Early Learning Program.<br />
The program aims to build positive male role models in the<br />
lives of children that the Center serves.<br />
Each month, black male staff members will read a children’s<br />
book to their assigned classroom and engage with the students. The<br />
program seeks to promote multicultural awareness, diversity, and<br />
literacy among the income constrained children of Delray Beach.<br />
“The students seem so focused on the book and eager to learn<br />
about diversity. It moves me to see how excited they are to hear the<br />
story,” said Alfred Williams, Support Services & IT Administrator.<br />
“Give a child a few minutes of your day and it could make the difference<br />
of a lifetime for their future.”<br />
According to statistical data by ELP, nearly one-fourth of American<br />
children live in single-mother families. Of the children living<br />
with their mothers, 35 percent of them never see their fathers.<br />
Additional data suggests that male role models play a pivotal role<br />
in children’s physical and emotional development as well as their<br />
overall confidence. With this in mind, ACCF decided to create the<br />
Black Literacy Program. The objective of this program is to provide<br />
male mentorship and advocacy while improving educational outcomes<br />
for underserved children.<br />

BY Anthony Vallagi<br />
Born and raised in Boca Raton, I am a true local. With a<br />
passion for real estate, I decided to become a realtor<br />
after graduating high school a year and a half early<br />
while working full-time. Since then, I have been dedicated<br />
to providing exceptional service to my clients. With a keen<br />
eye for detail and an unwavering commitment to my clients,<br />
I can navigate the complex South Florida real estate market<br />
with ease. I have a deep understanding of the local market<br />
trends and am always up-to-date on the latest industry news.<br />
I strive to be more than just a realtor; I see myself as<br />
a trusted advisor to my clients, always putting their best<br />
interests first. My approachable personality and exceptional<br />
communication skills make me a favorite among clients, and<br />
my determination to achieve the best possible outcomes for<br />
them is unmatched. Since joining Posh Properties in October<br />
2021, I am proud to have assisted on 20 transactions (both<br />
commercial and residential) and look forward to helping<br />
many others!<br />
With a track record of success and a passion for real<br />
estate, I am a realtor you can trust to help you achieve your<br />
real estate goals in South Florida.<br />

Delray Under $50<br />
Most Fun Small Town, Most Crazy Small Town, Most Small Town that Feels<br />
Like a Big Town. Delray has it all. With a bustling downtown, Pineapple<br />
Grove area, and little nooks and crannies in between, there’s more<br />
to do in Delray now than ever, with events and happenings<br />
spanning from daytime to nighttime. While it can<br />
seem expensive at times, there’s a great<br />
opportunity to enjoy all the City has to offer<br />
without breaking the bank. Here’s what you can<br />
do in Delray Beach in <strong>April</strong> for $50 or less.<br />
What continues to look better<br />
after six decades in action?<br />
Well, probably a few<br />
humans, wine, leather boots, but not<br />
much else. That is, unless you’re the<br />
Delray Affair, which is back and celebrating<br />
its 61st celebration along<br />
<strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>nue. <strong>April</strong> is Straw Hat<br />
Month and is the perfect time<br />
to show that dome protector<br />
some action, too. Nicknamed the<br />
“Greatest Show under the Delray<br />
Sun,” the Delray Affair is one of the largest arts and craft festivals<br />
in the Southeast United States. You can expect to enjoy an eclectic<br />
mixture of fine art, great crafts, and funky products from around<br />
the world from more than 400 artists and crafters. Additionally,<br />
there will be live music, a beer garden and food vendors at Old<br />
School Square, so there’s literally opportunity for fun around every<br />
corner. The event is held Friday, <strong>April</strong> 14 and Saturday, <strong>April</strong> 15<br />
from 10 am to 6 pm and Sunday, <strong>April</strong> 16 from 10 am to 5 pm, and<br />
stretches from Southwest Fifth <strong>Ave</strong>nue to Northeast Fifth <strong>Ave</strong>nue.<br />
The Delray Affair is a “must” event in Downtown Delray and you’re<br />
sure to enjoy the sights, find a new addition for your home, or just<br />
grab some sun and fresh air! Visit www.downtowndelraybeach.<br />
com or call (561) 243-1077 for complete event details.<br />
Unless you’ve been living under a rock,<br />
you’ve certainly heard about the pickleball<br />
craze. It’s the new, new way to<br />
exercise, have fun and be social, and it’s literally<br />
everywhere. Seriously, it’s like the older<br />
generation is getting back at us for making<br />
fun of them for eating early and wearing<br />
mismatching plaid. But honestly, who cares?<br />
They were right! <strong>April</strong> is National Pickleball Month and if you<br />
haven’t yet joined the everybody-is-welcome way to exercise,<br />
here’s your sign. Pickleball is a fun sport that combines<br />
many elements of tennis, badminton, and<br />
ping-pong, and can be played both indoors and<br />

Unless you’re Dwight and Angela from The Office (“Jazz is<br />
stupid! I mean, just play the right notes!”), there’s a good<br />
chance you’re a fan of jazz. Smooth melodies, naughty<br />
notes, and soulful rhythms lend themselves to a nice night in or<br />
a dimly lighted, velvet-booth night out. <strong>April</strong> is Jazz Appreciation<br />
Month and if you’re not sure where to turn, look no further than<br />
Arts Garage. With their quintet, reedmen Peter and Will Anderson<br />
present the work of the King of Swing, clarinetist Benny<br />
Goodman. Goodman’s 60-year career is highlighted<br />
by sparking the swing era in 1935,<br />
bringing jazz into Carnegie Hall,<br />
and leading the top big band of<br />
the 1930s swing era. Hailed as<br />
“virtuosos on clarinet and<br />
saxophone” by the New<br />
York Times, Peter and<br />
Will Anderson have<br />
performed concerts together<br />
since the age of<br />

Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center, the New Orleans Jazz<br />
Festival, and more. You’re basically getting the best of the best<br />
in your backyard, all in one night! Held Saturday, <strong>April</strong> 15<br />
from 8 to 10 pm, tickets start at $45 per person. Visit www.<br />
artsgarage.org or call (561) 450-6357 to purchase tickets.<br />
Hey America, we love you! We’re sorry we’re such filthy<br />
humans, with all of our single-use plastic waste, excessive<br />
purchases and non-stop driving. But we’re ready<br />
to apologize for it! <strong>April</strong> is Keep American Beautiful Month<br />
and is a fantastic opportunity to put our muscles where our<br />
mouth is. This <strong>April</strong>, you’re invited to join thousands of volunteers<br />
of all ages across the country as they show our nation<br />
some love. In celebration of Earth Day month, local activities<br />
of the Great American Cleanup include a massive removal of<br />
litter and illegal dumping from our public spaces - neighborhoods,<br />
roadways, waterways, parks, schools, etc. Additional<br />
community improvement activities may include tree plantings,<br />
recycling activities, painting over of graffiti or run-down<br />
buildings, etc. Demonstrate your individual responsibility by<br />
taking part in this annual effort to make Palm Beach County<br />
neighborhoods and public spaces a safe, more enjoyable place<br />
to live, work and play! There are three opportunities in <strong>April</strong><br />
to join your local community members and help clean up our<br />
space so visit www.keeppbcbeautiful.org for more information<br />
and details. It doesn’t take much to participate, but the<br />
reward is well worth the effort and America will love you a<br />
little bit more for it! See you on the beach!<br />
Cheese and bread. Name a better marriage. It’s okay,<br />
there’s time. Not only is a grilled cheese sandwich<br />
probably one of the most underrated sandwiches out<br />
there, it’s also one of the most difficult to make well. The ratio<br />
of bread to cheese, toppings if you need, and cooking low<br />
and slow until the cheese and bread become one. Yeah, it’s<br />
a thing, and needs to be celebrated. <strong>April</strong> is National Grilled<br />
Cheese Sandwich Month and is a reminder that it’s about time<br />
to get back to your childhood but elevate it past the plasticwrapped<br />
cheese product. Thankfully the good people at<br />
The Office know what it’s all about. Their Huckleberry BBQ<br />
Short Rib Grilled Cheese is made with slow-braised short rib,<br />
smoked gouda, provolone, mozzarella, white cheddar, toasted<br />
thick-cut brioche bread, served with sweet potato fries and<br />
marshmallow dipping sauce for $21 is everything that you’ve<br />
always wanted and more. Not only that, but their cocktails are<br />
on point, and their location offers the best of the best people<br />
watching in town. The Office is located at 201 E. <strong>Atlantic</strong> <strong>Ave</strong>.<br />

<strong>April</strong> 5th<br />
► Air ( Theaters)<br />
From award-winning director Ben Affleck (who won the Best<br />
Picture Academy Award for Argo in 2012), Air reveals the<br />
unbelievable game-changing partnership between a then-rookie<br />
Michael Jordan and Nike’s fledgling basketball division which<br />
revolutionized the world of sports and contemporary culture with<br />
the Air Jordan brand. This moving story follows the career-defining<br />
gamble of an unconventional team with everything on the line,<br />
the uncompromising vision of a mother who knows the worth of<br />
her son’s immense talent, and the basketball phenom who would<br />
become the greatest of all time. Air (formerly known as Air Jordan)<br />
is directed by acclaimed American actor/filmmaker Ben Affleck,<br />
director of the films Gone Baby Gone, The Town, Argo, and Live by<br />
Night. The cast also includes Affleck as Nike’s Phil Knight, plus<br />
Jason Bateman, Chris Messina, Marlon Wayans, Chris Tucker, Viola<br />
Davis, and Julius Tennon as Deloris and James Jordan, Matthew<br />
Maher, and Tom Papa.<br />
<strong>April</strong> 7th<br />
► Paint ( Theaters)<br />
The film centers on Carl Nargle (obviously inspired by the iconic<br />
Bob Ross - played by Owen Wilson), who has hosted Vermont’s<br />
number-one painting show for nearly three decades. While<br />
Carl’s signature whisper has long kept viewers from Pittsfield to<br />
St. Albans breathlessly hanging on his every stroke, the station<br />
eventually hires a younger, better painter who steals everything<br />
(and everyone) Carl loves. Paint is both written and directed by<br />
American writer / filmmaker Brit McAdams, director of the doc<br />
film Triviatown previously, plus tons of other TV work, including<br />
directing “Tosh. O”, “Katt Williams: American Hustle,” and the<br />
Comedy Central series “Honesty.”<br />
► The Super Mario Bros. Movie<br />
(IMAX)<br />
The Super Mario Bros. Movie is arriving<br />
in theaters worldwide on <strong>April</strong> 7th.<br />
Mario travels through an underground<br />
labyrinth with his brother, Luigi, trying<br />
to save a captured princess. This looks<br />
like quite an adventure that might live up<br />
to all the decades of Mario legacy. Mario<br />
creator Shigeru Miyamoto produces<br />
this movie with Illumination’s<br />
CEO Chris Meledandri. The film<br />
features the voices of Chris<br />
Pratt as Mario, Anya Taylor-Joy<br />
as Princess Peach, Charlie Day<br />
as Luigi, Jack Black as Bowser (of<br />
course), Keegan-Michael Key as<br />
Toad, Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong,<br />
Fred Armisen as Cranky Kong, Kevin<br />
Michael Richardson as Kamek, and Sebastian<br />
Maniscalco as Spike.<br />

Gabriele Amorth, a priest who worked for the Vatican and performed<br />
numerous exorcisms during his lifetime. He also wrote two memoirs<br />
– An Exorcist Tells His Story and An Exorcist: More Stories – which<br />
detailed his experiences battling Satan and demons. The Pope’s<br />
Exorcist follows Amorth as he investigates a young boy’s terrifying<br />
possession and ends up uncovering a centuries-old conspiracy the<br />
Vatican has desperately tried to keep hidden. The impressive cast<br />
also includes Franco Nero as The Pope (get a look at him in this!!),<br />
Laurel Marsden, River Hawkins, Pablo Raybould, Daniel Zovatto, Alex<br />

opens in theaters in <strong>April</strong>, right after the NCAA finals, and hasn’t<br />
played at any festivals. In the fall of 1950, Nat “Sweetwater” Clifton<br />
forever changed the game of basketball when he became the very<br />
first African American contracted to play in the NBA.<br />
“The game of basketball would never be played<br />
the same.” This is “inspired” by the true story<br />
of Hall of Famer Nat “Sweetwater” Clifton - he<br />
played his first game for the New York Knicks<br />
four days after the debut of Washington<br />
Capitols player Earl Lloyd, the first black<br />
player to appear in an NBA game.<br />
Everett Osborne stars as Nat,<br />

goes to Herculean lengths to save Kinley’s life. When Kinley learns<br />
that Ahmed and his family were not given safe passage to America<br />
as promised, he must repay his debt by returning to retrieve them<br />
before the Taliban hunts them down first. The Covenant is directed<br />
by prolific British filmmaker Guy Ritchie, director of the films Lock<br />
Stock & Two Smoking Barrels, Snatch, Revolver, RocknRolla, Sherlock<br />
Holmes and the sequel A Game of Shadows, The Man from U.N.C.L.E.,<br />

mind of their assailant and bring him to justice. To Catch a Killer is<br />

My What If Year<br />
by Alisha Fernandez Miranda<br />
fun endearing memoir about a woman who<br />
A pauses her successful career for a year and<br />
explores the “What If” jobs of her dreams.<br />
Alisha Fernandez Miranda has climbed to<br />
the peak of success, yet she isn’t happy or feeling<br />
fulfilled.<br />
So she temporarily steps aside from her<br />
stressful career as CEO of a successful consulting<br />
firm. Her husband and young twins give<br />
their blessings and she leaves home in London<br />
to spend one year exploring the dream jobs of<br />
her youth.<br />
What follows is an insightful and funny<br />
journey.<br />
She’s a gofer for two Broadway productions<br />
(and nearly tramples Stephen Sondheim),<br />
masters a fitness regimen called Voga, handles<br />
multi-million-dollar artwork at Christie’s, and<br />
sets her shirt on fire serving rack of lamb in a<br />
hotel in Scotland.<br />
Alisha’s “What If” year reveals that she can<br />
achieve success by embodying the spirit of the<br />
intern: never stop learning, be flexible and<br />
understand that failure is a prerequisite for<br />
growth.<br />
For anyone who has ever felt stuck in a rut,<br />
My What If Year proves that it’s never too late<br />
to say yes to second chances and explore the<br />
roads untraveled.<br />
Before We Were<br />
Innocent<br />
by Ella Berman<br />
summer in Greece for three best friends<br />
A ends in the unthinkable when only two return<br />
home in this new novel from Ella Berman…<br />
Ten years ago, after a sun-soaked summer<br />
spent in Greece, best friends Bess and Joni<br />
were cleared of having any involvement in their<br />
friend Evangeline’s death. But that didn’t stop<br />
the media from ripping apart their teenage<br />
lives like vultures.<br />
While the girls were never convicted, Joni,<br />
ever the opportunist, capitalized on her newfound<br />
infamy to become a motivational speaker.<br />
Bess, on the other hand, resolved to make<br />
her life as small and controlled as possible so<br />
she wouldn’t risk losing everything all over<br />
again. And it almost worked. . .<br />
Except now Joni is tangled up in a crime eerily<br />
similar to that one fateful night in Greece.<br />
46 | april <strong>2023</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
And when she asks Bess to come back to LA to<br />
support her, Bess has a decision to make.<br />
Is it finally time to face up to what happened<br />
that night, exposing herself as the young woman<br />
she once was and maybe still is? And what<br />
happens if she doesn’t like what she finds?<br />
The Wisdom of the<br />
Bullfrog<br />
by Admiral William H. McRaven<br />
From the acclaimed, #1 New York Times bestselling<br />
author of Make Your Bed—a short,<br />
inspirational book of advice and leadership lessons<br />
that Admiral McRaven collected over his<br />
four decades as a Navy SEAL.<br />
The title “Bullfrog” is given to the Navy SEAL<br />
who has served the longest on active duty. Admiral<br />
McRaven was honored to receive this<br />
honor in 2011 when he took charge of the United<br />
States Special Operations Command. When<br />
McRaven retired in 2014, he had 37 years as<br />
a Navy SEAL under his belt, leading men and<br />
women at every level of the special operations<br />
community. In the ensuing four years, he<br />
served as Chancellor to the entire University of<br />
Texas System, with its 230,000 students and<br />
100,000 faculty and health care workers.<br />
During those four decades, Admiral McRaven<br />
dealt with every conceivable leadership<br />
challenge, from commanding combat operations—including<br />
the capture of Saddam Hussein,<br />
the rescue of Captain Phillips, and the raid<br />
for Osama bin Laden.<br />
The Wisdom of the Bullfrog draws on these<br />
and countless other experiences from Admiral<br />
McRaven’s incredible life, including crisis situations,<br />
management debates, organizational<br />
transitions, and ethical dilemmas, to provide<br />
readers with the most important leadership<br />
lessons he has learned over the course of his<br />
forty years of service. Each chapter provides a<br />
Make Your Bed-like parable, rich with insights<br />
like those featured in his bestselling memoir,<br />
Sea Stories, about the specific leadership traits<br />
required to be at the top of your game.<br />
Life in Five Senses<br />
by GrETCHEn Rubin<br />
For more than a decade, Gretchen Rubin<br />
had been studying happiness and human<br />
nature. Then, one day, a visit to her eye doctor<br />
made her realize that she’d been overlooking<br />
a key element of happiness: her five senses.<br />
She’d spent so much time stuck in her head<br />
that she’d allowed the vital sensations of life<br />
to slip away, unnoticed. This epiphany lifted<br />
her from a state of foggy preoccupation into a<br />
world rediscovered by seeing, hearing, smelling,<br />
tasting, and touching.<br />
In this journey of self-experimentation, Rubin<br />
explores the mysteries and joys of the five<br />
senses as a path to a happier, more mindful life.<br />
Drawing on cutting-edge science, philosophy,<br />
literature, and her own efforts to practice what<br />
she learns, she investigates the profound power<br />
of tuning in to the physical world.<br />
From the simple pleasures of appreciating<br />
the magic of ketchup and adding favorite<br />
songs to a playlist, to more adventurous efforts<br />
like creating a daily ritual of visiting<br />
the Metropolitan Museum of Art and attending<br />
Flavor University, Rubin shows us how to<br />
experience each day with depth, delight, and<br />
connection. In the rush of daily life, she finds,<br />
our five senses offer us an immediate, sustainable<br />
way to cheer up, calm down, and engage<br />
the world around us—as well as a way to<br />
glimpse the soul and touch the transcendent.<br />
Life in Five Senses is an absorbing, layered<br />
story of discovery filled with profound insights<br />
and practical suggestions about how<br />
to heighten our senses and use our powers of<br />
perception to live fuller, richer lives—and, ultimately,<br />
how to move through the world with<br />
more vitality and love.<br />

The 16th Annual Boca Raton Concours d’Elegance at<br />
The Boca Raton resort featured more than 200 of some<br />
of the finest collector cars and motorcycles on earth.<br />
1998 McLaren F1 LM 2 Door Coupe 1930 Cadillac 452 Sixteen rOaDSTEr FlEETWOOD <strong>2023</strong> Marque of the Year<br />
COPYRIGHTED<br />
1934 LaSalle Series 138 2 Door Convertable Coupe FlEETWOOD <strong>2023</strong> Concours d’Elegance Boca Raton<br />
The featured Marque of this year’s event was Pre-War Cadillac<br />
to 1942. With classes like American Production, American<br />
Sports and Muscle, Foreign Sports, Foreign Touring, One Offs<br />
and Limited Production, this year’s group of judges certainly had<br />
their hands full trying to choose winners.<br />
After its debut last year, one of my new favorite classes was back<br />
this year: 30 under 30 up to 1999. And what that means is the vehicle<br />
owner must be under 30 years of age and spent less than 30k<br />
on the vehicle. Seven vehicles were entered in this year’s class and<br />
the cars ranged from a 1915 Ford Model T Runabout to a 1990 Ford<br />
Mustang “Fox Body” 2-Door Hatchback. The winner though was a<br />
1987 Bertone X1/9 Two Door Targa. Angela Randazzo 28 years old,<br />
found it hidden in the barter section of Craigslist by the original<br />
owner with just 19k original miles.<br />
The <strong>2023</strong> edition of the Boca Raton Concours attracted thousands<br />
of enthusiasts from all over the world. Since its inception, The Concours<br />
is known as much for the money it has raised for the Boys and<br />
Girls Clubs of Broward County as it is for fine automobiles and motorcycles.<br />
Thanks to its founders Rita and Rick Case and other benefactors,<br />
they have surpassed more than $10 million for that great<br />
cause. Be sure to mark your calendar for February 23-25, 2024 and<br />

WE ARE<br />
DELRAY<br />
How easy is it to toss that glass spaghetti<br />
jar in the trash? Or that shampoo<br />
container or yesterday’s junk mail? I<br />
sure have, but skipping the recycling step is<br />
dangerous. That old saying “out of sight, out of<br />
mind” is damaging. And as a beach town, walk<br />
to the beach to be reminded what trash does to<br />
our ocean.<br />
Thank goodness this story has a “greener”<br />
ending! Thank goodness for local leaders who<br />
have jumped into the sustainability fight. Let me<br />
introduce you to a few:<br />
Did you know Delray has a “refillery”<br />
store? A place where you can fill up on liquid<br />
or powdered products using containers you<br />
already have! That includes aluminum, glass,<br />
and even plastic. “Since 2020, we have been<br />
offering Delray Beach residents an alternative<br />
to plastic-packaged home and body products,”<br />
said Lindsay Zukerberg, owner of Zuke’s<br />
by Lynn Van Lenten<br />
Yo u r m o n t h l y f e a t u r e o f a l l t h i n g s D e l r ay f r o m<br />
Welcome back to our monthly column titled We Are Delray.<br />
Let’s talk about sustainability this month. You know, that<br />
“green word,” that “zero-waste” mindset we often forget.<br />
Lindsay Zukerberg, Zuke’s Refillery<br />
Refillery. “We’re all about people and the planet,<br />
so not only are our products sustainable, but<br />
they’re ethically made! We donate 10% of<br />
refills to local Delray organizations, host beach<br />
cleanups, and plan community markets to grow<br />
our eco-community. Delray is our home, and we<br />
are grateful to be its neighborhood plastic-free<br />
shop and refillery!”<br />
Community Greening planting a<br />
greener tree canopy in Delray<br />
Another team improving Delray is<br />
Community Greening. Founded in 2016, Mark<br />
and Matt had a dream of a greener tree canopy<br />
over Delray Beach. Seven years later, our parks,<br />
schools, and residential neighborhoods have<br />
thousands of trees planted and growing. “We<br />
are happy to report that we are finishing up<br />
year two of a 5-year campaign to plant 10,000<br />
trees in Delray Beach by 2025,” said Matt<br />
Cassini, co-founder of Community Greening.<br />
“Take a walk in Barwick Park and enjoy<br />
hundreds of slash pines planted by volunteers,<br />
or visit Catherine Strong Park and pick some<br />
fruit this summer in its Urban Orchard. These<br />
new trees will make Delray Beach a better<br />
place to live for years to come.”<br />
t h e<br />
Stephen Smith & Family<br />
at One World Zero WaSTE<br />
Let’s not forget our food source. Stephen<br />
Smith moved his family to Delray Beach to open<br />
One World Zero Waste organic food store. You<br />
are welcome to order online in bulk or shop in<br />
person. Bring your own containers and “weigh<br />
and pay” for sustainably sourced, vegan, never<br />
tested on animals, natural products. “Delray<br />
Beach is HERE and ready for local and organic<br />
bulk food, fruits and vegetables, re-usable/<br />
refillable zero waste,” said Stephen Smith, One<br />
World Zero Waste owner. “Our aim is to eliminate<br />
waste of all kinds, making us a happier and<br />
healthier community however we can. Please<br />
join us in raising consciousness! NAMASTE.”<br />
Feeling “greener” after reading this? I sure<br />
do! Sustainability heroes abound in our town.<br />
Stop in, meet them, learn their stories, and join<br />
the fight for a better future. Pick up a free tree<br />
from Mark and Matt and plant it in your garden,<br />
wash that empty shampoo bottle, and refill it<br />
at Zuke’s or shop for some sustainably sourced<br />
produce from Stephen. Join us as we make a<br />
change in the right direction.<br />

health & beauty | pain relief<br />
By Dr. Safranski<br />
Spring is in the Air!<br />
It’s that time of year again when flowers<br />
bloom, and the grass gets greener (because<br />
we live in Florida, and it’s green year-round).<br />
52 | april <strong>2023</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
Some people do spring cleaning, clean out their closets, and<br />
clean out their houses from top to bottom. They get a fresh<br />
lease on life. They’re swapping out the winter clothes for summer<br />
clothes getting ready to soak up the sunshine. The beautiful<br />
part about living in South Florida is the sunshine and the beaches;<br />
it’s part of the allure that is living close to the equator in paradise.<br />
That’s all fine and dandy, but have you ever considered how much<br />
better these views would be and how much more refreshed you<br />
would be if you lived in a wellness state of mind? What do I mean<br />
by a “wellness state of mind?” Well, the majority of people down<br />
here practice the mindset of waiting until something breaks to fix<br />
it. Whether that is your vehicle, your air conditioning in your home,<br />
or your body, these require regular maintenance so catastrophe<br />
can be avoided.<br />
So why do we wait until it breaks? I believe it’s because most people<br />
don’t think ahead. They only go to the chiropractor when their back<br />
hurts or they have headaches. They only go to the doctor when sick or<br />
feel something coming on. They want the quick fix, so they can go back<br />
to living. Most people don’t even go to a nutritionist or stick to a diet<br />
plan for the duration intended. They lack self-discipline and the drive<br />
to actually make changes. They may also lack the ability to ask questions<br />
out of fear of rejection. Whatever the case, I have said it before<br />
and will say again, “complacency is the killer of all dreams.” Much like<br />
anything new, the front end of the change is where a lot of time and energy<br />
goes into mapping out and planning the<br />
changes. If you’re shy, break out of your comfort<br />
zone, and ask questions!<br />
We are human, but we are all very much<br />
made up of complex systems like your vehicle<br />
fuel system, oil system, cooling system,<br />
air conditioning system, and the electronic<br />
system that controls everything. If we don’t<br />
maintain the systems, they will eventually fail,<br />
and when they fail, it can be catastrophic. So<br />
living in a “wellness state of mind” means that<br />
we maintain our bodies and pay attention to<br />
our injuries from the past to make sure that<br />
they don’t rear their ugly heads in the future.<br />
We can accomplish that by doing the work<br />
prescribed to us by the professionals to maintain<br />
the changes that were made or need to<br />
be made. Whether that is a better diet, better<br />
exercise, stretching, running weight, lifting,<br />
or adding routines to your workout to avoid<br />
injuring a shoulder. Maybe your chiropractor recommends you visit<br />
once a week for 8 weeks to get back on track? Perhaps that’s Physical<br />
Therapy twice a week for a month. Those are great recommendations,<br />
but at the end of the day, you are the person who lives inside your<br />
body. You are the only one who knows what makes you feel well.<br />
My profession is very physical so I need to ensure that I maintain<br />
myself. I have a shoulder injury, so I constantly pay attention to my<br />
shoulder, my workouts, and my rehab. Still, getting adjusted twice a<br />
week makes me feel in tip-top shape. I do bi-monthly decompression<br />
sessions on both my neck and my low back. I use shockwave therapy<br />
regularly to keep my shoulder from developing scar tissue and keep<br />
the biomechanics moving. All of these little additions that we add to<br />
our life shouldn’t be looked at as burdens; they should be looked at as<br />
the work that needs to be done every single day so we can live the fullest<br />
life, one that when we’re cleaning out the closets or going to the<br />
beach, put our toes in the sand, and listen to the waves crash on the<br />
shore, we can enjoy it to the fullest because we are doing everything<br />
we can to make sure that we are well.<br />

Setting Priorities<br />
Lead to Positive Change!<br />
We’ve all heard the saying, “To change your life, you<br />
need to change your priorities” and that couldn’t be<br />
truer when we’re talking about transforming your body.<br />
Your priorities guide your attention and energy as to what<br />
you’ll accomplish first. If you’re looking to achieve the<br />
healthiest version of yourself, your most important goals<br />
should become your top priorities.<br />
Many people want to change, but they miss the mark because<br />
they are making everything else a priority except for themselves!<br />
So here are some ideas on how to apply these principles to making<br />
lifestyle changes that will last and lead you to be the best version<br />
of yourself!<br />
Make the time to set your priorities, it won’t happen automatically.<br />
Schedule your workout a week or even weeks in advance!<br />
1<br />
Write it down, book it out, pencil it in!<br />
Determine what matters most to you. If everything’s a priority,<br />
2 then nothing’s a priority. Read that again!<br />
Have a ‘Why” that goes deeper than looking good in a bikini.<br />
3 Superficial goals don’t usually stand the test of time.<br />
Think beyond today. Ensure that your priorities withstand the<br />
4 test of time and are not too unrealistic.<br />
Get ready to sacrifice. Choices have consequences. Saying “no”<br />
5 to one thing allows you to say “yes” to another. Sacrifice is inevitable<br />
but will pay off in the long run.<br />
Learn to say NO! When you overcommit your time or spread<br />
6 your resources too thin, you fail to dedicate the attention that<br />
your priorities deserve. Ain’t this the truth!<br />
Maintain balance. Happiness is not a matter of intensity but of<br />
7 balance. While this may sound simple, it’s not easy. Try your<br />
best to find a good balance that works for you…otherwise it could<br />
lead to burnout.<br />
Make it a family affair! Discuss your goals with your loved ones.<br />
8 If priorities are aligned, you’ll have much easier time accomplishing<br />
your goals!<br />
Have someone to keep you accountable. This will help keep you<br />
9 honest and your fitness priorities at the top of your list.<br />
10<br />
Set little rewards along the<br />
way. It’s a great incentive<br />
to keep moving forward<br />
when the going gets tough. Rewards<br />
can be anything from a<br />
new pair of workout pants or<br />
something along the lines of<br />
a massage. Ahh!<br />

Adrián Sanchez<br />
A.K.A. El Chamo<br />
Interviewed and written by Emily Peters<br />
Photo by Paul Kim<br />
What does a devout faith in<br />
Christianity have to do with success<br />
in baseball? According to Adrián<br />
Sanchez... everything.<br />
Sitting across from one of the infielders for the Washington<br />
Nationals, I watch as Adrián’s demeanor shifts from one of<br />
complete stoicism to relaxing with pure delight the second we<br />
begin talking about his life’s passion. Born in Maracaibo,<br />
Venezuela, one of Sanchez’s<br />
earliest memories is playing<br />
baseball with his father.<br />
“I started playing<br />
ball with my dad<br />
when I was around<br />
four years old. We<br />
lived in a little town<br />
that had a small piece<br />
of field to practice on,<br />
and went there together<br />
almost every day. At just<br />
nine years old, everyone<br />
around me knew I was<br />
going to play baseball for life,<br />
as I represented my country<br />
in all Latin-American events.<br />
At thirteen, my parents started<br />
helping me focus on making the<br />
big leagues, finding a trainer who I<br />
practiced with every morning. I would<br />
run through my drills and learn how<br />
to work out and eat properly, all before<br />
school started.”<br />
In 2007, an American baseball scout flew to<br />
Venezuela for the sole purpose of checking out a<br />
few possible new recruits, and stayed in a hotel near<br />
where Sanchez lived. At dinner in the hotel’s restaurant,<br />
COPYRIGHTED<br />
56 | april <strong>2023</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com
fate stepped in when the scout struck up a friendly conversation with<br />
his server, who just so happened to be someone the Sanchez family<br />
knew well. Adrián was sixteen, and about to have his life altered.<br />
“The waiter was my dad’s good friend, and said ‘hey I have someone<br />
who is amazing and you have to see... his name is Adrián and the kid<br />
can really play.’ The next day I was signed.”<br />
Loyal to the Washington Nationals organization for his entire career<br />
thus far, Sanchez has also ventured back to Latin America, playing<br />
Winter Ball during the offseason here.<br />
“I play all year round which means there’s not much downtime.<br />
I never stop training so I can be ready for every opportunity that<br />
comes my way.”<br />
Sanchez is multi-talented, taking on the positions of Pinch Hitter,<br />
Second Baseman, and Third Baseman. In 2018 he additionally filled in<br />
as shortstop, and says he can occupy any infield spot without feeling<br />
uncomfortable, despite having a clear favorite. In June 2019 Sanchez<br />
was named the Eastern League Player of the Month. He batted .400<br />
(32-for-80) with five doubles, four home runs, 12 RBI’s, 14 runs<br />
scored, three stolen bases, a .429 on-base percentage, and a .613<br />
slugging percentage in 20 games during the month.<br />
“Second base is where I like to be the most, although I can play<br />
anywhere. I tried out my skills for the entire field, showing the<br />
managers what I can do,<br />
simply because I love the<br />
game and want to learn<br />
everything I can about it.”<br />
Sanchez permanently<br />
relocated to Florida in<br />
2019, which proved to be<br />
a monumental year for the<br />
athlete. It was this year<br />
that The Nationals began<br />
their regular season at<br />
home against the New<br />
York Mets and ended as<br />
World Series champions.<br />
After a duration of seven<br />
games, the Nationals<br />
edged out the Houston<br />
Astros 4-3, cementing<br />
the franchise’s first series<br />
win and garnering Sanchez<br />
a highly coveted MLB<br />
Championship Ring.<br />
“It was amazing. That’s the<br />
end goal… everyone wants<br />
that ring. The feeling of being<br />
in the stadium during Game<br />
7 of the World Series with<br />
a full house in attendance,<br />
is indescribable. It meant so<br />
much to achieve that victory for<br />
me and my family, playing a sport<br />
that has been with me from childhood.”<br />
Adrián has had a regimented mindset since the instant he decided<br />
baseball was to take center stage in his life, and a relationship with<br />
God has further solidified what his reality is all about.<br />
“The sport is a discipline. As a professional, you have to think as a<br />
professional in everything you do. You can be signed and brought up<br />
to play at any point of the season, so you have to be physically and<br />
mentally ready for that chance. I always take everything I do seriously,<br />
but upon turning my life over to Jesus and my faith, I saw a major<br />
positive change. My religion has truly catapulted me where I wanted<br />
to go. My personal as well as working life soared, and I owe it all to my<br />
belief in God. I’m married, have three beautiful children, and spend a<br />
lot of time on the road... but through my trust in a higher power, I have<br />
time for everything.”<br />
Injuries are a risk in any sport, and baseball is no different. An<br />
official game ball consists of a rubber cork center wrapped with<br />
yarn and encased in white natural horse or cowhide, or a synthetic<br />
composite leather. Wearing barely any protective gear, and with every<br />
pitch sending the ball careening though the air at an average speed of<br />
100 miles per hour, the risk of getting seriously wounded is always<br />
present. Sanchez knows this all too well. In 2018 he experienced what<br />
it was like to be caught in the line of fire.<br />
“I was up to hit and my manager gave me the sign for a bunt because<br />
there was a guy on third. The pitch was 101 mph, and the ball struck<br />
me in the chest. I couldn’t breathe for a good ten seconds and was<br />
down for about five minutes. They took me away in an ambulance<br />
to the hospital where they found I had suffered a lung contusion, but<br />
luckily I was alright and was back playing four days later.”<br />
Communication with fellow players is key when participating in any<br />
team sport, and Sanchez says that his teammates have become more<br />
like family than friends.<br />
“We learn to communicate very well with each other, even with<br />
just a look. Baseball is a group effort, giving you the chance to create<br />
great relationships all around. Even in the dugout, we have a moment<br />
to really discuss everything about the game and help one another.<br />
We go over how each of us look on the field that day, and how we can<br />
improve our next hit. Many of my fellow players and I maintain a close<br />
friendship off the field.”<br />
Adrián has entertained baseball fans across the globe, but one of his<br />
favorite venues to play is right here in the United States.<br />
“One of the most memorable places I have been to was Arizona. I<br />
loved the stadium, and the weather is so nice. I have played all over<br />
the world, but Japan is one country I have not visited yet that I would<br />
really like to see and experience.”<br />
Opening day of the <strong>2023</strong> baseball season is March 30th, and Adrián<br />
is presently a free agent.<br />
“I know this isn’t forever, and in the future it’s my dream to take<br />
everything I have learned and teach the upcoming hopefuls. When<br />
I was very young, there wasn’t anyone to show me the proper<br />
techniques. Now that I have had the chance to learn and play<br />
professionally, I would love to be that person for some kid out there<br />
wanting to improve their game.”<br />
Naturally everything in life is constantly changing, and Major League<br />
Baseball is not excluded. In June 2022, a new rule was created that<br />
stated a team could not carry more than thirteen pitchers, and starting<br />
this year there are more modifications set to be put in place for this<br />
extraordinary pastime - such as implementing a pitch time clock and<br />
larger bases. Adrián isn’t sure where the game or his own journey will<br />
lead him, but one thing is certain... God is coming with him.<br />

Gelato & Co.<br />
Hitting the Sweet Spot with<br />
Homemade Italian Gelato<br />
By diane feen | photos by melissa korman<br />
Do you want to experience<br />
the flavors and sweetness<br />
of Italy with the laid-back<br />
vibe of Delray Beach?<br />
58 | april <strong>2023</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
Ponder no more. Gelato & Co. has opened a store on the <strong>Ave</strong>nue<br />
that introduces Americans to what Italians have known<br />
for years – that homemade Italian Gelato is creamy, flavorful<br />
and yummy.<br />
And at times like this, having a happy place to share good flavors<br />
and friendship is paramount.<br />
Zoltan Fonai knows this all too well. The Hungarian native comes<br />
to Gelato & Co. every day to savor the taste of coconut gelato and<br />
caffé latte. “I love this place. The gelato here is different than I have<br />
ever tasted. It’s creamy, has real flavors and is so good.”<br />
The reason for Fonai’s affection for Gelato & Co. is due to their meticulous<br />
attention to detail and perfection. The gelato is made fresh<br />
daily in their shop and is made with Italian equipment and machines.<br />
Unlike American ice cream and other gelato products – that have an<br />
unlimited shelf life – Gelato & Co. is made the day you eat it.<br />
You will know that the minute you taste this luscious creamy delightful<br />
dessert. There are 22 flavors, and you can have your gelato on<br />
a stick with chocolate coating or in a cup in the flavor of your choice.<br />
Kailey and Conrad from Indiana were strolling down the <strong>Ave</strong>nue<br />
one day when they came across Gelato & Co. Sitting at one of their<br />
outdoor tables with the signature blue and white striped awnings,<br />
the couple were clearly smitten with their coconut and chocolate<br />
gelato. “This is our first time here and we can’t wait to come back.”<br />
The reason people are so wowed when they try this homemade<br />
gelato is that they have never really had authentic Italian gelato<br />
before. Unlike the watery gelato you get at street fairs or kiosks,<br />
Gelato & Co. imports the highest quality ingredients and stays true<br />
to the original recipes from Italy.<br />
“At Gelato & Co. we don’t use additives, sugar flavorings, GMOs<br />
or preservatives. We use real pistachio, almonds and hazelnuts<br />
sourced from local farms with no preservatives or additives,” said<br />
Gelato & Co. owner Giancarlo.<br />
Giancarlo, who is also imported from Italy, is the perfect host to<br />
this discerning friendly upbeat dessert emporium. Giancarlo was<br />
born in Milan and attended college in West Palm Beach. He fell in<br />
love with the US and wanted to bring a little sweetness from his<br />
home country to the US.<br />
“When Americans taste real gelato from Italy they fall in love<br />
with it. I had a customer tell me, ‘I went to Italy, and oh my gosh, we<br />
had gelato for breakfast, lunch and dinner.’”<br />
It’s easy to see why. The flavors are so subtle and sweet yet they<br />
COPYRIGHTED
lack the heavy preservative laden after-taste that other gelato or ice<br />
cream often has.<br />
That is why Gelato & Co. has such a big following. Moms come in<br />
with their little ones, and when they leave everyone has a smile on<br />
their face and a little gelato on their torso. If you want a real treat,<br />
try their Napoleons, ricotta cheesecake with Italian cherry topping,<br />
and other decadently delicious desserts.<br />
Made with fresh cream, thin pastry and wickedly wonderful frosting,<br />
the Napoleon will definitely change your mood and your mindset.<br />
If you are in doubt, just ask their customers.<br />
“This is the best gelato ON EARTH! The taste and texture is incredible.<br />
The ambience is trendy and modern; and to top It off they<br />
provide outstanding customer service.”<br />
Others agree.<br />
“Gelato & Co. is a sweet gem of a place in Delray Beach. Their authentic<br />
desserts bring me back to my time in Italy gorging on gelato<br />
and pastries. The service is fantastic and the ambiance is great.”<br />
If you have dietary concerns Gelato & Co. has your back. They offer<br />
products perfect for vegans and those with food allergies. Some<br />
of their gelato is dairy-free and others are gluten-free. The most<br />
important thing to note is that their products are made fresh every<br />
day without artificial preservatives or flavorings.<br />
The interior space is clean, upbeat and has an authentic Italian<br />
flair. Though there are other gelato stores (and ice cream shops)<br />
nearby, Gelato & Co. is always brimming with people. Some come to<br />
take in the view of the <strong>Ave</strong>nue while sitting under a table outside,<br />
while others prefer the homey Italian countryside feel of the indoors.<br />
Gelato & Co. not only has authentic Italian hand-crafted gelato<br />
and Italian pastries, but you can custom order cakes or get refreshing<br />
coffee drinks and paninis.<br />
“Our Italian gelato follows the tradition of the masters with quality<br />
that surprises even true Italians. The atmosphere is refreshing and<br />
soothing. Our products will sweeten up your day and delight your<br />
senses. We guarantee you’ll love our stracciatella gelato – it’s heavenly.<br />
Come to Gelato & Co. – it’s everyone’s happy place!<br />

The Delray Beach Open (https://yellowtennisball.com/) has outdone<br />
itself yet again, celebrating its 31st year and 25th in Delray<br />
Beach with record crowds, sold out events and the first Top 10<br />
winner in the tournament’s history! The 10-day event, which was held<br />
Feb. 10-19, <strong>2023</strong> at the Delray Beach Stadium & Tennis Center on <strong>Atlantic</strong><br />
<strong>Ave</strong>nue in downtown Delray Beach, Florida, always offers spectacular<br />
tennis. What makes the tourney extra special is its fabulous<br />
parties, special recognition days, clinics, and exclusive events all week<br />
long. The world’s only combined ATP Champions Tour Legends and<br />
ATP 250 Tour once again proved itself as the place to be and be seen.<br />
The total attendance for the Delray Beach Open this year was<br />
over 63,000, with a crowd comprised of local residents and visitors<br />
from across the globe, all enjoying the tennis takeover of our<br />
“Village By the Sea.” The hospitality events were sold out, as were<br />
Veranda and Best Seats courtside for the final rounds. Tournament<br />
organizers rushed to open the General Admission Grandstands to<br />
accommodate additional fans.<br />
Taylor Fritz, the current No. 5 player in the world, became the<br />
Delray Open’s first Top 10 champion, defeating the No. 4 seed and<br />
No. 33 in the world, Miomir Kecmanovic, in three sets, 6-0, 5-7, 6-2,<br />
COPYRIGHTED
efore a crowd of over 5,200 riveted fans. This was Fritz’s fifth ATP<br />
title but first as a top seed, becoming only the third top seed in Delray<br />
Beach Open tournament history to win the title. Interestingly, the<br />
three times the singles top seed has won, the doubles top seed has<br />
also won and <strong>2023</strong> was no exception. Top seeds and South Florida<br />
residents Marcelo Arevalo and Jean-Julien Rojer defended their 2022<br />
title, becoming champions for the second year in a row, defeating<br />
Rinky Hijikata and Reese Stalder 6-3, 6-4.<br />
Every year, the Delray Beach Open gives back to the community,<br />
and this year’s tournament hosted clinics for Love Serving Autism,<br />
USTA Diversity & Inclusion and ACEing Autism. Opening weekend<br />
saw the return of USTA Florida Kids Day, welcoming over 100 kids,<br />
and featured a surprise visit from Stanley, the Florida Panthers mascot,<br />
who showed off his tennis skills. In partnership with the Delray<br />
Beach Youth Tennis Foundation (Delray Tennis Foundation) and<br />
USTA Florida, the Delray Beach Open also hosted a free tennis clinic<br />
that weekend, coached by USPTA instructor and Director of the Delray<br />
Tennis Foundation, Stefan Konowalskyj.<br />
The Delray Beach Open’s sold-out special events presented attendees<br />
with an array of entertainment options off the court. Starting<br />
with the tournament’s VIP Reception offering the Delray Beach<br />
Open’s partners and VIPs tasty treats by VIP Caterers and spirits<br />
from Stoli Vodka, Raeburn Winery and Dano’s Tequila. Ladies Day<br />
Luncheons presented by Lilly Pulitzer and sponsored by Raeburn<br />
Winery, Stoli Vodka, and the Bloody Mary Experience, included fashion<br />
shows and shopping and welcomed Lilly Pulitzer’s EVP of Design<br />
& Product Development, Mira Fain. The 16th Annual Chamber<br />
Bash & Box Series Holders’ Reception, presented by Baptist Health<br />
and sponsored by BlueIvy Communications and Carlton Fields,<br />
welcomed members of Delray Beach and Boca Raton Chambers of<br />
Commerce and the tournament’s series box holders to an evening<br />
featuring culinary delights provided by some of the best restaurants<br />
in town, including Ziree Thai & Sushi, Harvest Seasonal Wine Bar,<br />
Windy City Pizza, PDQ, Guaca Go, and Proper Ice Cream, and spirits<br />
by Raeburn Winery and Dano’s Tequila.<br />
The tournament’s premiere event, Game, Set, Pour – billed as<br />
the ‘Ultimate Pairing event’ – served up an array of sampling from<br />
some of the best local restaurants and craft breweries in the area.<br />
The event, which benefitted local non-profit organization Kula Cares,<br />
was once again sold out to over 380 guests. With the popularity of<br />
Game, Set, Pour, the tournament added the inaugural “Tacos, Tequila<br />
and Tennis” event, presented by Dano’s Tequila, which benefitted the<br />
non-profit organization Love Serving Autism. Tacos, Tequilas and<br />
Tennis welcomed over 280 guests and offered samples of some of<br />
Photo by Juarez Santos<br />
the best tacos in Palm Beach County in addition to tequila cocktails<br />
provided by Dano’s Tequila.<br />
Known for its impressive array of food and beverage options, the<br />
Delray Beach Open’s food court and food carts featured the Raeburn<br />
Winery Wine and Prosecco Lounge, VIP Clubhouse Lounge, Subculture<br />
Coffee Lounge, brick oven pizza from That’s Amore!, Mark’s Bistro,<br />
Guaca Go, Proper Ice Cream, Dano’s Tequila Cantina and the Stoli<br />
Main Bar, home of the tournament’s official cocktail, the Stoli Slice.<br />
In addition to the tennis and entertainment, the Delray Open is always<br />
full of surprises – like last year’s on-court marriage proposal<br />
(she said “yes”!), and an appearance by the iconic Williams sisters,<br />
Venus and Serena – and this year’s biggest involved a local-turnedlegend,<br />
Palm Beach real estate investor Matija Pecotić. On Valentine’s<br />
Day, Pecotić was at the Tennis Center picking up his racket from a<br />
stringer when he learned he had the opportunity to qualify as an alternate<br />
in the tournament. What happened next was straight out of<br />
a Hollywood movie. Not only did he qualify, but he went on to win<br />
his first-ever ATP match in three sets against Jack Sock, a former top<br />
ten player. No news yet on what’s ahead for Pecotić, but no matter<br />
his tennis future turns out to be, it’s the kind of story that makes the<br />
Delray Beach Open so exciting.<br />
“The tournament surpassed even our expectations this year. The<br />
tennis was outstanding, and every event was sold out,” said Adam<br />
Baron, Executive Director of the Delray Beach Open. “From the VIP<br />
Reception to Game, Set, Pour, every night was a party that just kept<br />
picking up steam. The enthusiasm of everyone in the crowd was contagious.<br />
We broke a lot of our own sales records again this year and<br />
are already planning for the next tournament. Every year we get bigger<br />
and better and can’t wait for 2024!”<br />
Even as the <strong>2023</strong> Delray Beach Open came to a close, the team at the<br />
tournament began discussing going even bigger next year, so book early<br />
for the 2024 event, returning February 9-18. Stay tuned to Yellow-<br />

Ria Ray<br />
Healer, Artist, and Teacher<br />
By Diane Feen<br />
Art can help you heal. If you<br />
don’t believe it, then you<br />
probably haven’t met Ria Ray.<br />
The spiritual healer and artist had to overcome an incomprehensible<br />
loss – one that was devastating – but it set the stage for<br />
Ray’s journey toward healing.<br />
“I worked really hard to find freedom and creativity from my tragedy.<br />
At the same time, I uncovered something magical. I felt compelled<br />
to help myself and then give back.”<br />
Ray found her ability to help others was spontaneous, much like that<br />
of her artwork. People began showing up in her life that needed help.<br />
“I also started having intuition about people and was able to help<br />
them overcome obstacles and live a more meaningful life.”<br />
This realization led Ray to become a spiritual healer. Her thriving<br />
practice has helped many people live a more positive life filled with<br />
limitless possibilities.<br />
It also set the stage for her artwork, that is a form of healing for her<br />
clients and others.<br />
“My art is a doorway into my spiritual practice and my spiritual<br />
journey is a doorway into my art.<br />
Not only does she have spiritual wellness retreats and private healing<br />
sessions, but her artwork has spiritual powers that channel goodness<br />
into owners’ lives.<br />
64 | april <strong>2023</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
Collectors feel Ray’s healing powers embedded within the artwork.<br />
It empowers them to find their way toward inner peace and joy. Others<br />
feel buying her artwork is like having a piece of Ray’s divine spirit.<br />
One that will open doors for them and let in the light, whatever form<br />
that takes.<br />
For actress Heather Graham, Ray’s mixed media paintings are a<br />
means for aspiration and positivity. When Graham told Architectural<br />
Digest about her home she described it this way. “I have art from a<br />
healer named Ria Ray, who does these great inspirational messages<br />
on large canvases. I tell her what I want to get—like love or to direct a<br />
movie—and she writes inspiring messages and puts them all over my<br />
house. They’re fun and have positive energy.”<br />
Who doesn’t want to tap into their higher power?<br />
Not many.<br />
But, for most people it’s not that easy. For Ray it’s a part of her DNA<br />
that she willingly shares with others through her art. “People want to<br />
wrap themselves up in my art – It’s as if you were wearing a shawl<br />
with good energy in it. Art is destined to help you heal, It’s a part of<br />
my healing gift.”<br />
Her artistic gift is one of color, texture and totality. Large canvases<br />
are each unique (like children) and make a statement often seen by<br />
the viewer in multiple layers. Like life itself from an aerial perspective,<br />
Ray’s artwork often has many doorways, wings and passageways.<br />
“My spiritual abstracts are highly textural and have spiritual messages.<br />
They speak to people by way of uplifting sayings, sacred words,<br />
poetry and calming ethereal scenes.”<br />
Ray’s use of doorways is a metaphor for her life experiences and for<br />
her response to them. “My 25 years as a healer has been infused into<br />
my artwork, and is then transferred to the people who buy it. The art<br />
is sacred to collectors because it becomes a healing vehicle for them. It<br />
provides them with a sense of serenity and security,” said the mother<br />
of two incredible children.<br />
Ray will often refer to loss as a way to change; one that is not<br />
asked for but is demanded, due to a change in life circumstances.<br />
“You can either stay stuck inside the threshold or have the courage<br />
to walk through the next doorway. In my life I had to become committed<br />
to getting better after such a devastating loss. I did everything<br />
to heal myself.”<br />
COPYRIGHTED
Perhaps that is a universal theme – that of loss and gain and<br />
then loss again. This is indeed one of Ray’s most relevant theories<br />
and life experiences. And, in today’s world, loss has become a<br />
natural sub-particle of existence, something we fight against, yet<br />
find in the mere act of living.<br />
That was the reason for her spiritual quest, and the reason<br />
why she paints so beautifully and painstakingly. It was her refuge<br />
from the pain of loss that became her opening for transformation.<br />
“Life is uncertain and the more we get comfortable being safe<br />
in uncertainty, the more we can be fully alive and accepting of<br />
our destiny.”<br />
It is comfort that Ray’s artwork provides and it is comfort that<br />
most people seek. Ray’s clients (and collectors) find healing and<br />
harmony within the platitude of colors and textures that signify<br />
Ray’s art.<br />
Clients who were experiencing emotional negativity or fear<br />
felt better after hanging Ray’s paintings. Her art also brings about<br />
a sense of peace and protection. Clients revel in this serenity and<br />
sacredness, and often times collect more than one.<br />
Ray not only creates wonderful healing art projects, but her<br />
largest and most ambitious creation is her children. Her daughter<br />
Lia is currently working with her mom to create a mother-daughter<br />
collection of artwork that will meld the greatness of creation<br />
with the sanctity of spirituality.<br />
Ray does not solicit others to join in the realm of her essence;<br />
instead they find their way into her life by happenstance, word of<br />
mouth or just kismet.<br />
Her clients purchase (and collect) her artwork because they<br />
feel they’re carrying forward a bit of Ray’s healing power. And it<br />
is that sacred power that transforms lives to be more peaceful,<br />
balanced and inspirational.<br />
“I help people tap into powerful realizations that rise to the<br />
surface of their consciousness. These realizations hold the power<br />
to transform their lives.”<br />

Acupuncture Zen<br />
China’s #1 UFC Fighter Prepares<br />
for Battle at Acupuncture Zen<br />

Li Jingliang known as the (The Leech) competes in the UFC.<br />
Li knows that Dr. Tony has extensive training in acupuncture<br />
and the healing arts. That is why he put his faith – and<br />
healing needs – in the hands of Dr. Tony Willcox.<br />
Dr Tony, Thank you for the Acupuncture! - Li Jingliang<br />
“As an Elite Athlete you must be at the top of your game,<br />
preparing for battle in the world of Ultimate Fighting you<br />
must be using the best therapies available. Born and raised<br />
in Xinjiang, China I have used Acupuncture for many years, and my<br />
first-hand experience is that Dr. Tony is a Master of Acupuncture.”<br />
Indeed, Li Jingliang is correct in that assumption.<br />
Dr. Tony Willcox is well known for his skill in acupuncture.<br />
If you ask his patients how they feel when they leave his tranquil<br />
healing Mecca in Delray Beach, they all say the same thing.<br />
“Dr Tony is nothing short of a miracle worker. I’ve been seeing<br />

him for the past few years. Herniated discs, sciatica, and a generally<br />
painful back. One time I went, I had to be carried in. After one session,<br />
I walked out a new man,” said Abe.<br />
These endorsements – and the expertise and soulful countenance<br />
of Dr. Tony – have garnered him clients that range from celebrities<br />
to star athletes and everyone in between.<br />
Dr. Tony has a Double Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese<br />
Herbal Medicine, a Clinical Doctorate in the US, and a PhD in Acupuncture<br />
from China.<br />
He has spent much of his life in search of the most up to date<br />
modalities to change lives and create a calm respite for patients to<br />
restore health and promote healing.<br />
And he has done just that.<br />
Dr. Tony has created a niche of combining state-of-the-art technology<br />
in combination with the traditional healing methods of acupuncture.<br />
The latest tools for healing and wellbeing at Acupuncture Zen is<br />
the K Laser Speciale” an Italian made 100-watt class 4 laser, (most<br />
therapeutic lasers are 15 or 20 watts).<br />
“The Speciale’ is the most powerful therapeutic laser on the<br />
planet! It is the first therapeutic laser that is using (Ai) Artificial<br />
Intelligence to determine skin penetration with a built-in skin spectrometer.<br />
This gives each patient a unique and optimized treatment<br />
designed specifically for their skin type, musculature and even water<br />
metabolism at time of treatment,” said Dr. Tony.<br />
Light is measured in nanometers (nm) and the broad range<br />
of frequencies used by the K Laser Speciale’ are 660nm, 800nm,<br />
905nm, 970nm and 1064nm. Each wavelength has unique biophysical<br />
characteristics with varying depths of penetration that can<br />
reduce pain and inflammation, increase range of motion, and can<br />
improve quality of life.<br />
K laser increases circulation, nutrients, and oxygen to the damaged<br />
or injured area of the body providing rapid treatment times.<br />
Reducing inflammation, pain, muscle stiffness, tightness and accelerating<br />
tissue regeneration are all done while enhancing healing<br />
with improved mitochondrial health.<br />
K Laser Therapy bio-stimulates tissue repair, and has been used<br />
in Europe since the 1970’s. It has been cleared by the FDA for therapeutic<br />
treatment since 2002 in the USA.<br />
NovoTHOR photobiomodulation is another state-of-the-art light<br />
table that is so effective it is used by US Special Forces, notable<br />
athletes, and celebrities. This 15-minute treatment is relaxing yet<br />
energizing. The science of this technology - through clinical studies<br />
- determines that this therapy reduces pain and inflammation,<br />
reducing oxidative stress, and improves energy levels. This is an<br />
optimal way to improve and enhance one’s health.<br />
Dr. Tony is one of the few doctors who uses these therapeutic<br />
reparative treatments. His patients are eternally grateful.<br />
“Dr. Tony is a true healer. I feel AMAZING after my acupuncture and<br />
NovoTHOR sessions! The space is immaculate, and the atmosphere<br />
has a reverence for healing I feel when I walk in the door. An appointment<br />
at Acupuncture Zen is a highlight of my day,” said Alec Walczak.<br />
These therapies are not only for professional athletes but also<br />
local tennis players, pickle ball players and golfers that are often<br />
in need of treatment due to conditions of pain and inflammation.<br />
Whether it’s acupuncture, K Laser, NovoTHOR, cupping, crystal<br />
light therapy, Chinese herbal medicine or some of the best CBD pain<br />
relieving topicals, Dr. Tony has something for everyone.<br />
Acupuncture Zen treats a variety of other conditions for patients<br />
- inflammation, wound healing, tendonitis from golf and tennis elbow,<br />
neck, back, hip and knee pain, bursitis, and arthritis.<br />
Demetrios can attest to that. His recent Yelp review says it all.<br />
“I went to Dr. Tony and did cupping under a warm light that<br />
moved the qi around. I really needed this after being on the road<br />
and closing deals for clients.”<br />
Demetrios also experienced the NovoTHOR bed. This technology reduces<br />
inflammation and supports healing. The results were outstanding.<br />
“Overall, this is the single top experience I have ever had, and I’m<br />
a Chinatown acupuncturist regular. I recommend coming to Acupuncture<br />
Zen first and getting healed the right way.”<br />
Feel free to call the office or stop in to have a look at the endorsements<br />
on the walls or take in the healing vibe of this wonderful space.<br />

Moroco Orthodontics<br />
Celebrating 25 Years of<br />
Orthodontics in Delray Beach!<br />
By diane feen<br />
A lot has happened in the 30<br />
years Dr. Jacqueline Moroco has<br />
been practicing orthodontics.<br />
In 1998 she opened a private practice in Delray Beach. At that time the<br />
majority of her patients were children and teens.<br />
“With the introduction of new technologies such as clear braces,<br />
clear aligners and braces behind the teeth, adults are more willing to get the<br />
treatment they need.”<br />
Moroco Orthodontics is now treating an equal number of children and<br />
adults. They range in age from 6 years old to 89, said Dr. Moroco, who<br />
moved to Delray Beach after completing her residency in Orthodontics and<br />
M.S. in Oral Biology at Baylor College of Dentistry in Dallas, Texas.<br />
While life – and orthodontics – have changed drastically since Dr. Moroco<br />
came to Delray Beach, some things never change.<br />
In a good way.<br />
“We always strive to offer the highest level of orthodontic care, combined<br />
with a great patient experience. Our goal is to provide excellence in service<br />
and an unexpected positive patient experience.”<br />
Dr. Moroco is a woman of her word. Patients rave about her expertise as<br />
an orthodontist and commitment to each patient’s individual needs.<br />
68 | april <strong>2023</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
And, with over 550 five-star Google reviews it is fair to say that Dr.<br />
Moroco leads a team intent on excellence of patient care and experience.<br />
“I had an extremely complex case and am so grateful for Dr. Moroco.<br />
She took my case (when others denied it) and went above and beyond.<br />
She has been so helpful communicating each step, and continuously<br />
analyzing and adjusting my treatment plan. Her team is extremely<br />
friendly and professional, and the facility is state-of-the-art. I couldn’t<br />
be happier with my treatment and results. Thank you Dr. Moroco, Dr.<br />
Simon and the team for giving me back my smile!” said Vasilios.<br />
If the name Dr. David Simon doesn’t sound familiar, it’s because he is<br />
a relative newcomer to the team. In March 2022 he became a full-time<br />
(and valued) member of the team, after working at Moroco Orthodontics<br />
part-time since November 2020.<br />
“I started my own practice from scratch in Wellington in 2000. After<br />
selling it in 2020, I decided to join Dr. Moroco. She has an amazing reputation<br />
for high quality orthodontic treatment and a fantastic patient<br />
experience. It seemed like a perfect match.”<br />
It was just that.<br />
“I visited Moroco Orthodontics because my 7-year-old has an extra<br />
tooth and needs a dentist, orthodontist, and oral surgeon to work<br />
together for the surgery and treatment to follow up. It’s stressful and<br />
scary to have to deal with all of it. After talking to six different orthodontists,<br />
Dr. Simon and the whole Moroco team met and exceeded all<br />
my expectations,” said Laura.<br />
Dr. Simon was raised in Palm Beach County and made the decision<br />
(like Dr. Moroco) to choose the path of orthodontics at an early age. After<br />
seeing tennis legend Ivan Lendl say he didn’t want to smile because<br />
of his teeth, David Simon’s fate was sealed.<br />
“When I heard Ivan Lendl couldn’t smile because of his teeth I decided<br />
that everyone deserves to smile,” said the Summa Cum Laude graduate<br />
of Tufts University Orthodontic and Dental programs.<br />
Now, together, Dr. Moroco and Dr. Simon collaborate on patient cases.<br />
Their combined 50 years of experience in patient care reinforces the<br />
patient treatment plans. In addition, they added new technology to assist<br />
them in keeping a close eye on patient treatment progress remotely.<br />
“If we’ve learned anything in our years of practice (especially during<br />
the COVID crisis) we’ve learned that people are busy with life and want<br />
to decrease overall treatment times and attend appointments less often.<br />
This is one of the many reasons we introduced Dental Monitoring<br />
to our patients of all ages.”<br />
Dental Monitoring gives patients the ability to send detailed photos<br />
and video of their treatment progress using an app on their cell phone.<br />
These photos are then sent to Moroco Orthodontics for evaluation.<br />
“Dental Monitoring has been an excellent way for Dr. Simon and<br />
COPYRIGHTED
I to keep a closer eye on patients, while reducing the time they need<br />
to come to the office. We actually see and communicate with patients<br />
more often via the app, but less often in person. It has decreased their<br />
visits by eliminating unnecessary appointments, but it upgrades their<br />
overall care. We have every patient on it no matter what their age or<br />
treatment plan,” said Dr. Moroco.<br />
This technology has allowed Moroco Orthodontics to have a more<br />
global presence. As a matter of fact, they now have patients as far away<br />
as Peru, Spain, Israel and other locales in the US.<br />
“In the past it was more difficult to treat people, who lived for an<br />
extended period of time, outside South Florida. They would periodically<br />
need to fly back for an appointment. Now we can monitor a patient’s<br />
treatment from anywhere in the world. We can also make their<br />
appointments when they are back in the area.”<br />
New talent, new technology and a solid team that share Dr. Moroco’s<br />
vision for patient care and patient experience is what drives her into<br />
the future. “I can’t see us slowing down anytime soon. We just love what<br />
we do! And we love learning better ways to do it!”<br />
And she’s not slowing down on her commitment to the community<br />
either. Dr. Moroco and Moroco Orthodontics continue to support many<br />
schools and local organizations such as Junior League of Boca Raton,<br />
Impact 100, Delray Beach Public Library, The Miracle League of Palm<br />
Beach County, Bethesda Hospital Foundation, and others.<br />
When she’s not working with her team or supporting the community,<br />
you can find Dr. Moroco travelling with her husband, Jack Maloney (owner<br />
of Firstlantic Healthcare in Delray Beach). The two celebrate life on a<br />
daily basis, but they are also celebrating their 25th Anniversary!<br />
Delray Beach could not be happier to celebrate 25 years of Moroco<br />
Orthodontics!<br />

Omega Alpha Medical Honor Society and accepted into the rigorous<br />
integrated plastic surgery residency at Ohio State University,<br />
where she trained with world-renowned leaders in aesthetic and<br />

Dr. Francesca Lewis, the medical director and founder of Delray<br />
Dermatology, says Dr. Carrau is a perfect addition to the practice<br />
and complements their existing medical and cosmetic Dermatology<br />
care and services.<br />
“Dr. Carrau brings specialized training in both facial aesthetics<br />
and skin cancer surgery and reconstruction. She offers complimentary<br />
consultations for commonly requested cosmetic procedures,<br />
including eyelid lifts, facelifts, neck lifts, brow lifts, body contouring,<br />
and more. Dr. Carrau is very talented and extremely compassionate<br />
with a great bedside manner,” said Dr. Lewis. “Her patients<br />
adore her, and her techniques for skin cancer surgery and cosmetic<br />
procedures are cutting edge.”<br />
The full-service Dermatology practice in the heart of East Delray<br />
Beach specializes in skin cancer diagnosis and treatment as well<br />
as comprehensive medical and aesthetic Dermatology, allowing
Facial with Paula Parra, CME<br />
patients to receive excellent medical and surgical Dermatologic<br />
care as well as exceptional cosmetic treatments in a beautiful,<br />
comfortable environment. Dr. Francesca Lewis, a board-certified<br />
general and cosmetic Dermatologist has created a welcoming<br />
environment at the forefront of leading-edge technology and<br />
innovation to provide patients with comprehensive, state-ofthe-art<br />
care. Delray Dermatology is a comprehensive practice for<br />
cosmetic and medical skin concerns and now offers a complete<br />
aesthetic surgical component for patients.<br />
At the beginning of the year, the practice upgraded its Coolsculpting<br />
device to the new and improved CoolSculpting Elite device. This<br />
new device treats more surface area per treatment and can reduce<br />
more fat with a better overall result for patients. Delray Dermatology<br />
will host a CoolSculpting event on <strong>April</strong> 12th from 10am to 4pm,<br />
offering complimentary consultations with their body sculpting specialists.<br />
CoolSculpting treats several body areas, including double<br />
chin, arms, abdomen, inner and outer thighs, banana rolls, and more!<br />
Another new procedure at the practice is the injectable filler Juvederm<br />
Volux, from the same company that makes Botox. It is the first<br />
filler FDA approved for jawline volume loss, correcting jowls, and<br />
creating a more defined and contoured lower face appearance. Dr.<br />
Lewis was one of the first physicians in the country to offer this revolutionary<br />
treatment starting last November and has injected more<br />
than 200 syringes in that time. She also trains physicians nationwide<br />
on techniques for injecting this and other Juvederm filler products.<br />
In 2022, Delray Dermatology was named an Allergan Top 500<br />
Account. Last year alone, they injected 151,493 units of Botox (almost<br />
1515 vials), 1589 syringes of filler and performed 261 cycles<br />
of Coolsculpting, a body contouring and fat reduction procedure.<br />
Achieving Allergan Top 500 status means Delray Dermatology +Cosmetic<br />
Center is among the top 500 cosmetic practices in the nation!<br />
“As a practice, we have seen an increase in patients looking for<br />
treatments such as Botox and filler but with an emphasis on natural<br />
results. We also introduced Genius Radiofrequency Microneedling in<br />
February of 2022, and it has quickly become one of our most popular<br />
treatments with a very high patient satisfaction for skin tightening,<br />
improving skin texture, and collagen stimulation,” said Dr. Lewis.<br />
The patients at Delray Dermatology praise Dr. Lewis and her staff<br />
for their welcoming demeanor.<br />
“From the moment you call to make an appointment, they are<br />
very helpful. When attending my appointments, the staff is very<br />
welcoming, the office is very clean, and everyone is professional.<br />
Most importantly, Dr. Lewis and her PAs are both amazing, there<br />
to help you with any skin concerns, and they will give you the best<br />
options. Highly recommend this office for all services. Paula, the esthetician,<br />
is also amazing for facials! A must go to dermatologist!”<br />
said a happy patient.<br />
“I have been going to Delray Dermatology and Dr. Lewis since<br />
she opened her office in Delray Beach. Dr. Lewis is a caring, compassionate<br />
doctor who takes great care and never makes you feel<br />
rushed. Everyone in the office follows her lead, Hilary, the PA, Ross,<br />
who helps with my appointments, and the rest of the terrific staff.<br />
I also receive monthly facials from Leah, who is marvelous at what<br />
she does. She is also a lovely person inside and out, gives great recommendations<br />
when asked but is never, ever pushy. I highly recommend<br />
everyone at Delray Dermatology for medical and cosmetic<br />
purposes,” stated another patient.<br />
Join Delray Dermatology for their CoolSculpting event on <strong>April</strong><br />
12th from 10am to 4pm, or make an appointment for a medical<br />
skin cancer examination or cosmetic consult to learn more about<br />
their outstanding services and providers!<br />

JADI AUTO RECON<br />
Make Sure Your Car Is Road<br />
Ready From Top To Bottom<br />
By Diane feen | photos by melissa korman<br />
Jonathan Augusto was born to be in the car<br />
business. His father raced cars and inspired<br />
young Jonathan to change a tire in three minutes.<br />
That was a long time ago. But Augusto has been a car guy ever<br />
since then. Call it happenstance or family breeding, but the<br />
young man who could change a tire at lightning speed now<br />
owns a full collision auto shop who does body work on domestic<br />
and exotic cars.<br />
Called Jadi Auto Recon this full collision shop also does custom<br />
painting, reconditioning, interior repairs, bumper refinishing,<br />
headlight Restoration and more.<br />
Their reputation supersedes conventional wisdom and is the<br />
reason the shop has grown from from 800 square-feet to 8000.<br />
That doesn’t surprise Gary Weston of Delray Beach. The car<br />
collector has been taking his beloved cars to Jadi Auto Recon for<br />
the past 10 years.<br />
72 | april <strong>2023</strong> | www.<strong>Atlantic</strong><strong>Ave</strong><strong>Magazine</strong>.com<br />
COPYRIGHTED<br />
And, this man knows a lot about cars. He owned a car wash in<br />
Delray Beach and was a car dealer in New York. He also brings his<br />
Bentley (and his 11 other cars) to Augusto to fix dents, scratches or<br />
paint touch ups.<br />
“I send a lot of people to Jonathan and have never heard one single<br />
complaint. He is always there and he can do anything. It is very<br />
difficult to paint cars today. They have a base coat that makes it very<br />
hard to match the color. Jonathan gets it perfect every time. He really<br />
does great work. I bring him all my cars,” said Weston.<br />
Steve of Delray Beach is equally impressed – not only with<br />
Augusto’s work ethic and talent, but with this humanity and humility.<br />
“I had a wonderful experience with Jadi Auto Body. Jonathan went<br />
above and beyond to help my aunt and myself with her car repairs. It
was in a fender bender which required towing. He was very kind and<br />
patient with her and her concerns. He not only had the car towed to<br />
his shop, but he drove my aunt home.”<br />
Steve was impressed with their follow up and constant updates<br />
about the car. “Upon completion, Jonathan drove the car to her<br />
residence. They were Fast! Accurate! And, the workmanship was<br />
excellent and the service second to none.”<br />
A few weeks later Steve had some concerns and Augusto told<br />
him to bring the car back. “In two hours he called me back and<br />
assured me he had checked and repaired it at no charge. I highly<br />
recommend them.”<br />
After 28 years in the business Augusto has gained a loyal following.<br />
There is a good reason. He is a man on a mission.<br />
“I have always loved cars. When I was young, I wanted the<br />
challenge of fixing something. Now that I am a little older, I like to<br />
help my customers get their cars looking good and working well.”<br />
With cars so scare those are magic words. With the lack (and high<br />
price) of new and used cars, people want to keep their cars longer<br />
and preserve their beauty. That’s one reason Augusto sees so many<br />
people bringing in their cars for reconditioning.<br />
“I brought my BMW in for an estimate. Jonathan was professional<br />
and honest. I scheduled my car to be fixed and he had it done on time.<br />
It looks better than it did brand new!”<br />
There is other news at Jadi Auto Recon.<br />
Jonathon Grant Augusto (Jonathan Jr.), who worked with his father<br />
in the car business, has enlisted in the Navy. “My son will be in a<br />
submarine in the navy because he wants to serve his country.”<br />
Jonathon Sr.’s wife Toni has also made cars her life’s work and<br />
passion. She works at Napleton, a very large group of dealerships,<br />
and is a director of Service, Parts and the Bodyshop. “We both share a<br />
passion for cars and I am so proud of the excellent work that Jonathan<br />
does. We go to races together and we enjoy our life, and our work.”<br />
Augusto has done such a great job repairing and refreshing cars<br />
that he works on domestic and exotic cars for large Auto Dealerships.<br />
He also devised ways to keep cars looking good despite the South<br />
Florida terrain. “We have a ceramic coating we put on cars to keep<br />
them shiny. The beach salt air can erode the metal of your car, we<br />
have an undercoating that keeps it rust free for quite a while.”<br />
Jadi also paints fiberglass boats with the same perfectionism. “I<br />
send my boats to Delray because of the quality of work and painting<br />
at Jadi. They are old school in their craftsmanship. Jonathan knows<br />
how to fix what other people have to replace.”<br />
If your car needs detailing, collision work, painting, reconditioning<br />
(or anything else) call and make an appointment. They also take all<br />
insurance.<br />
They look forward to meeting you and making your car sparkle.<br />

Overwatering lawns during<br />
the early morning hours is<br />
resulting in lower water pressure<br />
citywide. Remember:<br />
• City Ordinance 11-22 requires<br />
residents to follow the<br />
three-day irrigation schedule<br />
to avoid fines<br />
• Most lawns only need 1 inch of water per week<br />
• Overwatering promotes fungal growth and root rot<br />
• Insect-related issues may also arise from overwatering<br />
Please do your part to help us conserve one of our most precious<br />
resources by not overwatering, following the irrigation schedule, and<br />
monitoring your water consumption.<br />

A Woman of Valor and Dedication to Delray<br />
They say it’s not what you get in this life, it’s what<br />
you do with it. Patty Jones knows this quite well.<br />
The former administrative assistant from Michigan has been<br />
the architect of her own life since she was 12- years-old.<br />
She started babysitting as a teen and worked in the photo<br />
department at Montgomery Ward. She continued to work to pay for<br />
her car and rent on her first apartment when she was just a senior<br />
in high school.<br />
Independence has always been her strong suit. It was not something<br />
that Jones took lightly, or resented, it was just the hand she<br />
was dealt.<br />
“I was raised by my father. He taught me not to be afraid of hard<br />
work, and he always said: ‘If you don’t do things for yourself they<br />
won’t get done.’”<br />
So that is what she did. Jones cooked and cleaned and was the<br />
designated ‘lady of the house.’<br />
“Growing up in a divorced family and having step- brothers, I<br />
took over the chores of running the house. I had a joint checking<br />
account with my father and paid the bills. I was responsible for doing<br />
a lot of things at an early age. But it was the way I grew up. It<br />
was normal.”<br />
Not only was it normal, but it set the stage for the trajectory of<br />
Jones’ life - one of compassion and selflessness.<br />
“Doing these things helped mold the person I became. My father<br />
was a big influence on me – he was a strong, analytical, strict man<br />
who taught me the value of hard work.”<br />
That lesson was not lost on Jones.<br />
In 1987 she escaped the winters of the Midwest and moved to<br />
South Florida. She worked at Circle K as a clerk and was promoted<br />
to office work. Jones became an administrative assistant for different<br />
departments (at Conoco Phillips) and attended PBCC. This<br />
career jaunt, that lasted 16 years, taught her about adapting to<br />
change and going with the corporate flow.<br />
She also met and married her soulmate Rod Jones, who was born<br />
and bred in Delray Beach. She has two children, a son Hunter and a<br />
daughter Cassandra.<br />
While her children were in school Jones began her foray into volunteering<br />
and supporting causes close to her heart. At St. Joseph’s<br />
Episcopal School Jones was auction chair for their Gin & Jazz event<br />
and Seaside Luau. She was also on the committee to raise money,<br />
the chair for Santa’s workshop (buying gifts and shopping experiences<br />
for students) and on the Capital Campaign Committee.<br />
When her children attended American Heritage School, Jones became<br />
the PTO President of the upper school. She also did fundraising<br />
for orientation and purchasing awnings and benches.<br />
When her children were older Jones set her sights on a larger<br />
swath of territory – Delray Beach. She started on the committee to<br />
raise funds for the Bethesda Hospital Foundation Center for Women<br />
and Children.<br />
Jones was also very involved in the Palm Beach County Food<br />
Bank, Empty Bowls Delray Beach events. She was on the Committee,<br />
as well as the Chair from 2016 to 2019.<br />
When it comes to culture, you could say that Jones has a large appetite<br />
for philanthropy. This act of selfless giving is from the heart,<br />
but also is part of her family heritage. “My mother-in-law Pat loved<br />
Old School Square and made sure the staff was always taken care of.”<br />
Her mother-in-law also worked to restore the Cornell Museum<br />
of Art & History building, and there was a room named after her.<br />
Jones is currently the Chairperson of Old School Square Inc. If<br />
you attend any of their events, (Luna Fest being the last outstanding<br />
one) you will see Jones front and center helping to create miracles.<br />
Others around town can’t help but marvel at her ability to create,<br />
and contribute, to the goodness that surrounds her.<br />
“Patty Jones is one of the most selfless people I have ever known.<br />
Her commitment and time devoted to our community and local<br />
charities is truly admirable. Patty spends countless hours volunteering<br />
for non-profits that make a huge impact in Delray Beach,”<br />
said Elise Nail.<br />
Jones also supports Impact 100 Women, Delray Citizens for Delray<br />
Police, The Delray Beach Police Department Toy Drive, The<br />
Delray Library, Achievement Centers for Children & Families, and<br />
other community activities.<br />
On top of her philanthropy Jones is also caretaker to her father<br />
Charles, who is disabled. But this full plate that Jones carries around<br />
each day is also a light filled endeavor that makes her heart glow.<br />
“I try to help out wherever I can. When I volunteer, it’s great to<br />
see the fruits of my labor. I like to see how my little impact will help<br />
an organization.”<br />
According to those around her, her impact is not so little.<br />
“Patty gives tirelessly to those around her. When she sees a need<br />
in the community she does what she can to make things better for<br />
those in need. She seems happy to take on a variety of rolls without<br />
worrying about titles or what is in it for her. Patty has an infectious<br />
smile and those around her feel better having her in their world,”<br />
said Ingrid Kennemer, Co-Chair of the Grants Committee for Impact<br />
100 PBC.<br />
Others agree: “Patty is a classy consummate professional. She<br />
always speaks the truth; we are blessed that she took over as chairperson<br />
of OSS,” said Freddie Bonardi.<br />
Bob Stone also sums up Jones kind giving nature.<br />
“In all of my years as Headmaster of American Heritage School<br />
in Delray, I have never worked with anyone more cooperative, positive<br />
and intelligent as Patty Jones. In an era where people tell you<br />
why they couldn’t do something, it was so refreshing for me to work<br />
on countless important programs for children with someone who<br />
always had the best interests of our students in mind.”<br />
As for Jones, her humility is one of reverence for others and<br />
goodness for all.<br />
“I try to be humble, honest, and hard working. You have to look<br />
back at your life and be pleased and happy. I know I am blessed.”<br />

BY Bill Piechocki<br />
What is the Most Important<br />
Nutrient for Healthy Pets?<br />
We are all looking for the easiest and surest solutions to<br />
keep our pets and ourselves in optimal healthy condition.<br />
While many plans, diets, superfoods, medications, supplements,<br />
and much more are touted as the ultimate solution, we<br />
must look at the most fundamental and dynamic approach in the<br />
science of life. This solution or miracle is so universal and necessary<br />
and yet so misunderstood. The absence of this nutrient usually<br />
spells death in a relatively short period of time. It is used in every<br />
function of the body and yet so neglected.<br />
The universal river of life, yes, you guessed it, is water. We take it<br />
for granted because it seems available wherever we are. In almost<br />
any facility, you can always find a source of running water. From<br />
the beginning of time, man has either located at a water source or<br />
found ways to transport it in our travels. In the wild, animals migrate,<br />
sometimes thousands of miles, to find good sources. It is the<br />
lifeblood of every creature and plant on this planet.<br />
The question is, are all waters created equal? You know the answer.<br />
It is obviously NO! Land life cannot survive long with sea or<br />
salt water, and yet ocean life thrives. And sea life will die in clean<br />
fresh water. We are also aware that to thrive, we need that the water<br />
be clean; however, what is clean?<br />
We think we know what clean water is, but do we? What is the<br />
best water? Is it bottled, spring, distilled, or tap in-house filtered?<br />
Most of these are essentially “dead.” Most filter out the essential<br />
mineral content and are treated with disinfecting chemicals. These<br />
waters are then vitaminized, electrolyte charged, flavored, or magically<br />
processed with health claims.<br />
What processing and ingredients are involved in each of these<br />
products? What degree of hydration is actually occurring?<br />
The best hydration occurs from what we refer to as “living” or<br />
structured water. This living structured water is what we find in<br />
clean raised, raw, unprocessed foods. The moisture content of<br />
most raw food, whether plant or animal based, is usually over 60%<br />
and as much as 90% structured water. Structured water is usually<br />
bound with enzymes, hormones, and other beneficial biochemical<br />
components, which leads to fast and more complete absorption at<br />
the cell level. This is where we need homeostasis to begin.<br />
Research shows that natural flowing spring water and rainwater<br />
are charged with extra hydrogen ions. This type of water is one of<br />
the top antioxidants. This is because, unlike other antioxidants that<br />
lose an electron and become a free radical, the extra electrons bind<br />
with the free radical, and the water molecule can flush the system.<br />
Practical water technologies are now available to replicate this<br />
hydrogen ionization in your home through electrolysis technology<br />
that we found worth researching to provide the most viable and<br />
healing waters possible.<br />
With a combination of living structured water and clean raw species<br />
appropriate food, the only possible result is improved health.<br />

By Adora Winquist<br />
A Beginners Guide to<br />
Meditation<br />
with 5 Easy Steps<br />
Mind-body practices that have been around for centuries<br />
are becoming more modern day, accessible tools to elicit<br />
greater health and harmony in life. Current research shows<br />
the numerous benefits of consistent mindful meditation practices,<br />
such as increasing emotional intelligence, the body’s resilience to<br />
stress and improving positive states of mind. Our physical health,<br />
1<br />
Create a space that feels warm and inviting. A clear and<br />
clutter free environment allows the mind to settle and the energy<br />
to flow freely. Having a sanctuary space for your sacred<br />
intentional practices will become a haven for you on the days when<br />
the hectic pace of the world can seem overwhelming.<br />
2<br />
Enjoy a cup of rose petal or lavender tea. Specific herbal<br />
teas can nourish the body, calm the nervous system and sooth<br />
the spirit. These two are wonderfully relaxing and heart nurturing,<br />
helping to create the conditions conducive to meditation.<br />
3<br />
Incorporate your favorite heart centering essential oils<br />
like Geranium, Ylang Ylang or Eucalyptus by inhaling one drop<br />
of the essential oil from the palm of your hand or cotton ball<br />
for 30 seconds while you focus on The Love Code Breath Technique.<br />
Pure essential oils are the most potent form of plant medicine and<br />
offer a profound and immediate effect when used via inhalation. The<br />
process of inhalation creates a new memory cell in the brain, filled<br />
with positive intention, energy, and intelligence. The aromatic molecules<br />
imprint their vibration and medicine through our olfactory<br />
senses, through the brain into our cellular consciousness and the<br />
totality of our beings. When feeling overwhelmed, anxious, down,<br />
or disconnected, we can create new habit patterns of using essential<br />
oils via inhalation to uplift our emotions and re-pattern our neural<br />
pathways for a healthier way of being, feeling and living.<br />

productivity and longevity are directly affected by our mental and<br />
emotional wellbeing.<br />

vibrational medicine expert, and author of Detox Nourish Activate:<br />
Plant & Vibrational Medicine for Energy, Mood and Love, shares her<br />
beginners guide to meditation.<br />
4<br />
The Love Code Breath Technique: Release Forgiveness<br />
Gratitude. In each moment we can let go over the thoughts,<br />
feelings, actions, and activities that we know do not serve our<br />
highest health and wellbeing. When you start to feel triggered, upset<br />
or frustrated with yourself or others, center yourself like a tree<br />
rooted in the earth and take a deep breath into your heart, on the<br />
exhalation invite the intention to let go and release that emotion or<br />
thought. Then take a deep breath in forgiveness. It need not be directed<br />
at a person, yet more of a healing balm for our hearts. Then<br />
close with a breath of gratitude, a sense of appreciation for yourself<br />
and your commitment to grow, heal and elevate to the best, most<br />
loving version of yourself.<br />
5<br />
Cultivate<br />
COPYRIGHTED<br />
this practice consistently. You don’t have to<br />
spend an entire hour meditating to zen out. Starting with 5<br />
minutes a day consistently is a great way to cultivate a commitment<br />
to yourself that is simple to keep. Over committing can<br />
create a sense of overwhelmness that is counterproductive. Once<br />
you feel like you have a solid 5-minute daily practice, increase by<br />
a few minutes each time as long as it feels easeful. Work up to 20<br />
minutes a day. Journal your experience and benefits for the first<br />
21 days to see the bright and beautiful new shifts in how you feel<br />
inside and how these greater feelings of goodness and gratitude<br />
ripple out around you.
