South Florida Fair CEO Rick Vymlatil Keeps Fairgrounds Busy Year-Round

The wall of windows in Rick Vymlatil’s office, located in the South Florida Fair’s Expo West building, overlooks the awning-covered con-course that forms a bridge between exposition spaces lining the path to the midway and the Agriplex.

And Vymlatil’s job for the past eight years as fair CEO has been to form a stable bridge between the dual purposes of the sprawling county fairgrounds. It’s the stage for the South Florida Fair each winter, but it’s also paramount to keep the grounds — an important asset to Palm Beach County — humming with revenue-producing activity all year round.

During the fair, Vymlatil’s view looks straight down that beeline to the mid-way — just like the vision of most kids, especially those experiencing the big show for the first time. Telling stories about them — and how he brought up his own kids immersed in fair culture — makes him light up. He’s been in the fair business for 30 years.

A tall, affable, friendly guy with a firm handshake, warm smile and a storyteller’s demeanor, he takes pride in his many years with the fair. His association with the century-old South Florida Fair dates back to 1982 when he arrived to assist Buck Christian, the longtime previous fair chief executive, who knew of Vymlatil as chief at the YMCA’s north Palm Beach Gardens branch.

“We talk about once a month now,” Vymlatil said of his old boss. “He’s still around, vibrant as ever. He was a vol-unteer at our Y as a coach. He said that I had good people skills, knew how to

manage whatever situation I was in, and I was flexible. ‘That’s what we need at the fair,’ he said. ‘I need somebody who I can plug in and who can do a lot of different things.’… It was a great place to work, and I was here for nine years before being offered a job as manager of the St. Lucie County Fair.”

But Vymlatil returned to the South Florida Fair in 1993. “Then I was asked to manage the state fair in Tampa in 1996, so I went to Tampa for eight years,” he recalled. “Then I was fortu-nate because Buck was going to retire in 2004, and he got in touch with me and said, ‘If you’re interested in coming back to work here, they’d like to have you take my position.’”

Vymlatil jokes about his three stints with the local fair: “As one of my trust-ees said, ‘it just only goes to prove I can’t hold a job.’”

He chuckles and gestures around his bright, airy office to show off his col-lection of favorite keepsakes, family photos and fair posters lining the walls. One is a large board covered with a collage made by the people he worked with while running the Florida State Fair. Vymlatil pointed to one photo on it and said, “Do you know who that is?” The face was familiar.

“It’s interesting and also unique that when I went to work there, the chairman of the board was George Steinbrenner, the owner of the New York Yankees. Those were some really interesting years, working with him, because he was a very hands-on guy,” Vymlatil said.

He noted that Steinbrenner grew up as he had, in Ohio, attending fairs all the

time. “He raised poultry as a kid and showed them at the Ohio State Fair, and he loved the fairs, kids and the livestock programs,” Vymlatil said. “My folks moved here in 1961 from Cleveland.”

Vymlatil, 12 when he moved here, graduated from local schools. Asked what kind of education one needs to be a fair CEO, he said: “There’s a story that goes with that, too. My previous career, right out of high school, I was asked to come to the YMCA in Palm Beach Gardens.”

He was recruited to come in as a coach for the summer. “I knew I was going to go to college in the fall, lo-cally — I went to the then-Palm Beach Junior College — and, well, I thought maybe this would be something to do. It didn’t pay much, but I thought it might work out,” Vymlatil said.

After several years there, the direc-tor position opened up and, although still a student and a few courses into his second major, education, he asked for the job. “The reply was: ‘Yeah, but we don’t hire you unless you’ve got a degree.’ So I said, ‘Well, I want to make sure I’m eligible, so what should I get a degree in?’ He said, ‘We don’t care,’” Vymlatil recalled.

He ended up getting a bachelor’s degree in business management from Wilmington College and got the job. Fifteen years later, he was ready with wide-ranging experience when Chris-tian called him in.

Looking back, he’s seen a lot of growth in the South Florida Fair. “It’s a pretty good-sized fair. We’re the num-ber 31 fair in the country as far as size goes. We’ve got a staff of 49 full-time

people, but I’m the lucky guy who gets to say, ‘I’m the CEO.’ And we have a board of 17 trustees and 54 directors,” he said. “There is a lot of input from all components of the community.”

Vymlatil discovered while searching through Florida State Fair archives that it actually had been known as the South Florida Fair first, after being moved to Tampa from Jacksonville. He came across a book of the bonds issued to support construction of Tampa’s state fairgrounds, and decided to pull a prank on Christian.

“The state fair started in 1904, so that even predates us,” Vymlatil recalled. “I found a book of those bond coupons that were never issued, and I sent one to Buck just as a joke, and said, ‘Here, I need to claim our name back,’ because it said right on the top of the bond, ‘South Florida Fair.’”

There was a move in the early 1990s to put a “Palm Beach” identifier into the fair’s name, but said they decided to keep that South Florida identifier. “We legally changed our name to South Florida Fair and Palm Beach County Expositions Inc. — even though that’s not accurate as far as how we’re char-tered,” Vymlatil said. “At least it puts ‘Palm Beach’ in our name.”

The second part of the name is why the fairgrounds are busy all year long. That’s a big part of Vymlatil’s job de-scription. In the 1980s, the board de-manded that more events be booked.

“In 1981, right after Buck took over, the board at that time said we’re not doing our duty,” he said. “Back then we had the speedway, and they had truck pulls and Friday night races — but other than that, the fairgrounds were dark. So now, we’re lucky, we’ve got a real good calendar. We do 12 antique shows a year, nine gun shows, I believe four craft shows, and then we’re fortunate enough to have the Barrett-Jackson Classic Car Auction that comes in

April. There’s only four of those in the whole United States. We work hard to keep that event because it brings a lot of money into the county — hotels, restaurants — but it’s a good event for us, too.”

All these events and shows make the fairgrounds a huge economic engine. “The county has a vested interest in us

maintaining this property and keeping it active. They’ve guaranteed our indus-trial revenue bonds. We’ve got a close relationship with the county,” Vymlatil said. “We’re also the special care unit for Palm Beach County when there’s a hurricane in the immediate vicinity, and this building turns into a 585-bed hospital.”

Rick Vymlatil has been CEO of the South Florida Fair for 8 years,but his association with the local fair dates back to 1982.


Forever Young ProFileVymlatil said the fairgrounds served

as a staging area during Hurricane Andrew in 1992 and then formalized that role. In the hurricanes of 2004 and 2005, “everything came here first,” he said.

One of the best parts about the South Florida Fair is that it’s first in the na-tion’s lineup. “We really are the first big fair in the country each calendar year,” he said. “During the fair, I’ll get a lot of phone calls from other fair manag-ers and other people in the industry, who just want to know, ‘What’s the mood?’”

Also, many traveling fair acts or ven-dors try out their newest equipment in South Florida to give it a test run before they break it out for all the summer fairs throughout the country. “It’s almost like the world is your oyster, because everybody wants to come to Florida in January,” Vymlatil said.

But the best part about the fair is that many families build traditions around it, including his own.

“We run into people all the time and

ask, ‘What’s the reason you go to the fair?’ and one of the big responses is always, ‘to spend time with my fam-ily.’ That says something really nice

about the South Florida Fair,” Vymlatil said.

Fun For All Ages When South Florida Fair Returns Jan. 18 Through Feb. 3

Fairs traditionally provide great entertainment for children, and the 2013 south Florida Fair — running Jan. 18 through Feb. 3 — certainly will be brimming with that. But south Florida Fair officials go out of their way to make it an alluring event for kids of all ages (who are, of course, Forever Young).

In 2013, the fair marks the begin-ning of its second century and puts an appropriate bookend on the politically charged year just past with its theme of “Washington, D.C.: Our Nation’s Capital.”

Inauguration Day coincides with the fair’s third day, Sunday, Jan. 20. To commemorate the occasion, fairgo-ers can explore a 70,000-square-foot exposition of the world’s first planned capital. The presentation will include a salute to past presidents and a display of authentic first ladies’ gowns layered with official memorabilia, a 400-ton Lincoln Memorial sand sculpture and an ice show.

For those 60 or older, the fair offers its special senior day on Monday, Jan. 28, when admission is $5, and several fun, free special activities and performances will keep folks entertained, including “America On Ice,” a barbershop quartet competition, the Elephant Encounter Show, a firefighters’ show, pig races, performances by hypnotist Mark Yu-zuik and more.

Anyone who recalls the fair’s roots in motorsports (the fair first moved to its present location at the former Palm Beach Speedway in 1953) will want to visit the Motorsports Experience, which captures the action and excite-ment of racing and where guests can see motorcycles, race cars, collectors’ automobiles, muscle cars and more. Also, the fifth annual Palm Beach Fairgrounds Speedway Reunion — an invitation-only event — takes place at 5 p.m. Monday, Jan. 28. Search on

Facebook for the raceway’s name to score an invite.

For fairgoers’ gastronomic entertain-ment, some of the foods offered by vendors will include the usual sausage sandwiches with peppers, turkey legs, barbecued meats, London broil, corn dogs, shish-kebabs, gyros, Onion Blos-soms, curly and cheese fries, Elephant Ears, candy apples, funnel cakes, cotton candy, ice cream, frozen bananas, kettle corn, caramel corn, fried Oreos, many special ethnic dishes, an international food tasting, and Americraft cooking demonstrations.

Whet your shopping appetite by visit-ing the many vendors that are offering a wide variety of unique products at low prices, including jewelry, home furnishings, art, leather goods, toys, craft items, clothing and more.

in addition, there will be the county fair standards: agricultural exhibits and contests; a hobby contest, for which entries will be accepted between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m. Thursday, Jan. 17 in Building 5; the culinary competition, Saturday, Jan. 19 with registration 10 a.m.-12:45 p.m., judging starting at 1; the Baby Beautiful Contest, Saturday, Feb. 2 with registration 10-10:45 a.m. and the event starting at 11; and the Twins Contest the same day with regis-tration starting at 11 a.m. and the contest beginning at 1.

Musical and other acts, far too numer-ous to detail, include America On Ice, daily; Gary Roland and the Landsharks Band, Jan. 18-22; Dusty Road Rangers, Jan. 20; Dustin Lynch, Jan. 22; Mid-night Rodeo, Jan. 23; hypnotist Yuzuik, Jan. 18-24; the Miss South Florida Fair Scholarship Pageant, Jan. 19; Jackyl on Bike Nite, Jan. 24; Starz of the Future, Jan. 25-27; the fourth annual Clas-sic Rock Tribute Band Competition, featuring AC/DC, Led Zeppelin, Kiss, Journey, Lynyrd Skynyrd and Yes trib-ute bands playing one per hour from 2



to 7 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 26; the Dennis Lee Show, Jan. 28-Feb. 2; the Leroy Van Dyke Country Gold Tour, Jan. 28; 10th Avenue North, Jan. 29; and the E.S.P. Band, Jan. 30.

The fair opens at noon Monday through Friday and at 10 a.m. on satur-days, Sundays and Martin Luther King Day (Monday, Jan. 21). The midway opens an hour after the gate each day and runs until 11 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and midnight on weekend nights; the exhibit/building hours are generally 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily ex-cept 8 p.m. Friday, Feb. 3; the Exposi-tion Building hours are noon to 10 p.m. Monday through Friday and 10 am. to 10 p.m. on weekends except 8 p.m. Feb. 3; Yesteryear Village is open noon to 10 p.m. weekdays and 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. weekends. Vendors serve until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays, 11 p.m. other nights.

Discount tickets are available in advance at all Publix stores and many banks in Palm Beach County, and also through the Partners in Education Discount Admission and Ride Tickets programs. Under that arrangement, parents purchasing tickets through the fair’s web site save on admission and win their kids’ schools credit for 10 percent of the sale (the fair reimburses schools an amount equaling 10 percent of all purchases made with their school code). These tickets are good on any of the 17 days of the fair.

The last day to buy in advance is Jan. 17, and a group rate of as low as $7 per person (for 20 or more) is also available. An individual “Friends of the Fair” membership costs $49 and wins the bearer free admission on any weekday. Regular admission prices are: adults, $15; seniors, $9; children ages 6-11, $8 (those 5 or younger get in free).

Cadre Of Volunteers Come Together To Make The South Florida Fair A Reality

The SouTh Florida Fair, like every other nonprofit organization, depends on the commitment of a cadre of volunteers to make its world go ’round.

and our fair is blessed with a slew of people interested in its mission, many of whom have spent much of their lives working with the fair.

“Nonprofit organizations do rely on volunteers, and their value is tremen-dous,” said doreen Poreba, who was

called on unexpectedly to take over the fair’s public relations department after the untimely death on Thanksgiving day of longtime fair public relations coordinator John Picano.

The entire South Florida Fair com-munity is in mourning this year for him. Ceo rick Vymlatil eulogized him as “just a good man, period,” noting that he was a local radio icon previously and a champion of community involvement in the fair for 17 years.


“i knew John going back to his days as the news director of WJNo,” Poreba said. “We used to run into each other when we were covering stories. he was a well-respected newsman, as well as a public relations professional once he switched fields. I feel like I have big shoes to fill. We traveled in a lot of the same circles for many years, and i want to make him proud with the job that i do in his absence now. he’ll be missed,” she added.

The fair’s volunteer coordinator, Stacy Wakefield, put Forever Young in touch with several of the volunteers who make up the public face of the South Florida Fair.

Craig Elmore, 58, of western Boyn-ton Beach recently became chairman of the board of trustees. President of hardrives Paving in delray Beach, elmore has been involved with the fair for decades.

“i first started out being involved with the youth in the livestock auc-tion where they raise their animals and show them at the fair, then sell them,” he recalled. “Then i was asked to come on the board of directors and served there for a couple of years, and was asked to join the board of trustees, and i think i’ve been there almost 10 years. i worked my way up through committee chairmanships and now i’m chairman of the board. it’s been a great time, and it’s a lot of fun.”

elmore enjoys being able to give back to the community. “it’s especially grati-fying watching these youths — and you see them from 8 years old until they’re 18 years old sometimes — raising these animals year after year, growing up to be responsible citizens of the commu-nity,” he said. “You see how they started out as youth and how they’ve matured

Jim and Linda Biancarosa of Wel-lington are transplants from New York who moved here in 2005 and joined the fair family shortly after they attended their first county fair ever, in 2006.

“When we work the fair this January, it’ll be our seventh year,” linda said. “We usually work for guest services, at the information booths, helping people find their way. We also work the eve-ning hours when they have the concerts, and we tell people how to get where they need to go.”

Linda’s first time at the fair was a new experience. “i was a New York City girl, more or less, so i had never

even been to a fair,” she recalled. “My background is that i’m retired from the NYPd. My husband worked for the long island railroad up there.”

it was brought to her attention that the fair was always looking for help-ers. “and we just decided to do that. We volunteer for a lot of things,” she said. “We really like it. We’ve gotten to meet such great people. during the course of the years, we’ve helped them out with the mailings, and when they’ve done other events, like the garage sales, we’ve helped them out doing setup and registering vendors.”

The Biancarosas enjoy the social as-pects of it all. “We’ve established last-ing relationships with a lot of people,

including some of the entertainers, so the friendships that we’ve developed from that keep us coming back year after year,” linda said, adding that since they have no family, the fair people have become their extended family. “This is the family that we really don’t have.”

Dotty Wright, 77, is a fixture at the South Florida Fair. She started volun-teering decades ago, when there was a “Woman in her World” building.

“I moved here in 1966, my first fair would have been 1967, so I’ve been going to the fair for 45 years,” she remembered. “i started volunteering many years ago in the old exhibit build-ings. One of the first things I did was for

National Cash register, demonstrating things of the future, which are scanning your items in the grocery store now.”

Wright said that when the Bonanza TV show was popular, its producers had a traveling “Ponderosa” ranch exhibit shown out of the back of a tractor-trailer at the fair. She got a position in the cast through Manpower. She also demon-strated fiber-optic lamps, popular dur-ing America’s Bicentennial. “In 1976, they built a fort out at the fairgrounds for the Bicentennial, and my Cub Scout troop named the fort, ‘Fort Centennial,’ and we won the prize,” she said.

Wright is a charter member of the Friends of the Fair, and has exhibited her own crafts for years, winning many blue ribbons. She creates ornaments out of jumbo chicken eggshells, and they’re very popular.

“i was chosen last year to be a Cen-tennial Belle along with four of my so-rority sisters and one of their husbands, and they loved us so much they’ve asked us to come back this year and do it again,” she said.

Wright will be checking people in after opening ceremonies of the fair when there is a ViP luncheon, and she’ll also be spending many hours strolling the fairgrounds and Yesteryear Village in costume. She’ll also work in the main expo building at guest services — “because we know everything there is to know about the fairgrounds. We are representing the fair, and we’re proud of it.”

Becki Powell of The Acreage, 64, has been a volunteer at the fair for seven years, primarily at the Bridge Tender’s house in Yesteryear Village.

“When people come into the building, we talk to them about the house, when it was built, and what the bridge tender’s job was,” she explained. “it was taken from the lantana bridge to hypoluxo island when they rebuilt it in 1950. Then the women’s club used it for the library in lantana.”

Powell noted that another volunteer’s grandfather was one of the bridge ten-ders, so she tells interesting anecdotes about him. She said the volunteers

make the Yesteryear Village experience unique.

“We have to have volunteers here because we do get a lot of visitors and families. We love to talk to the people and tell them about the house. We converse with them and have a lot of pictures there for them to see,” she said. “it takes a lot of volunteer hours to keep this village like it is, and the people who are volunteering here are very interested in history. That’s my favorite part, and a lot of people don’t know that when you pay for admission to the fair, it pays for you to get into Yesteryear Village, too.”

Powell also does school tours through-out the year.

“i hear a lot of very interesting stories about growing up here from people who come in and were born and raised in Palm Beach County,” she said. “i grew up in dade County, moved here when i was 10, so i’ve lived here most of my life. and the Broward and dade fairs don’t have any kind of history display like we do here.”


Zen Massage Offers TherapiesTo Help Relieve Pain And Stress

Looking for a way to allevi-ate pain and stress? at Zen Massage, massages have become more than a luxury — they’re a health necessity for those with chronic pain, stress and other ailments.

The older we get, the more we feel the aches and pains of an aging body, and a good massage can be just the right therapy to make people feel en-ergized, relaxed and rejuvenated. Zen Massage offers a variety of massage therapy services that provide benefits for the body.

There are two convenient locations in Palm Beach County, in wellington and in Boynton Beach, and another is coming soon to Boca raton. The fran-chise in Palm Beach County is owned and operated by rob Proctor and Lisa Eisenacher.

“Zen Massage is based out of north Carolina. The founders wanted to cre-ate an affordable way for people to get a massage,” Proctor said. “People now realize how beneficial a massage is to their health, and at Zen Massage, we have made it more accessible for people.”

The outlets are specifically located in retail zones. “This makes it very convenient for people,” Proctor said. “and we are open every day, including Sundays.”

Customers get a calming, relaxed feel as soon as they walk into Zen Massage. The lights are dim and it’s quiet, with only the sound of water flowing from a wall-mounted stone fountain. a friendly receptionist greets clients.

“it’s just a place to relax,” Proctor said. “we built our facilities soundproof

so that when the door closes behind you, there is complete silence.”

The therapist also asks clients to silence their cellphones. “we want you to be shut off from the world so that you can be completely relaxed,” Proctor said.

Zen Massage focuses on giving cli-ents absolute serenity for at least an hour. “we want to provide the least amount of distractions, and to do this, it has to be as silent as possible,” Proc-tor said.

There are 15 professionally licensed, certified and insured massage therapists at both Zen Massage locations. walk-ins are welcome, but they typically recom-mend that clients make appointments to ensure the best available time.

Zen Massage offers a variety of spe-cialty massages, depending upon the client’s needs. for senior clients, Zen Massage therapists recommend three types of massages that are therapeutic but affordable.

The Zen Swedish Massage is popular with many clients and is also the most affordable, starting at $50 an hour. “This massage promotes circulation of blood through the muscles,” Proc-tor said.

It’s also recommended for first-time massage clients. “It’s firm pressure but not too deep, with long strokes,” Proc-tor explained. “it’s there to promote general relaxation.”

another recommended massage for seniors is the Sports Massage. “we have many active adults who play golf or tennis,” Proctor said, noting that the Sports Massage incorporates stretching, and all the massages can be adjusted

depending on the level of pressure the client wants. “Based on the client’s health assessment, we know the level of pressure to put on them as well.”

Proctor also recommends seniors try the neuromuscular Therapy. This mas-sage helps relax the muscles and reduce numbness by increasing circulation. “if the person has sciatica in their legs, this is usually what’s recommended,” he said.

There are many other massages avail-able for seniors willing to try them — Deep Tissue Massage, focus Massage, Couples Massage, Hot Stone Massage and more. “The Zen Swedish Massage, Sports Massage and neuromuscular Therapy are just what we recommend for seniors, but it all depends on the individual and his or her lifestyle,” Proctor said.

Zen Massage also offers facials for various skin types, such as their signa-ture Zen Custom facial. “we use some of the best products in the industry from Dermalogica,” Proctor said. “Their products are well-known for quality.”

During the hour-long massage ses-sion, clients are given 10 minutes for a consultation and time to undress and dress, with 50 minutes spent with the actual massage. Clients are also advised to arrive 15 minutes early to fill out intake forms and make payment.

getting a massage should be a routine activity, Proctor said. “you should try to work it into to your daily, weekly or monthly itinerary,” he said.

The times are quick and easy for people with busy schedules. “it does not take up many hours of your day for a massage or facial,” Proctor said.

Customers get a calming, relaxed feel as soon as they walk into Zen Massage. The lights aredim and it’s quiet, with only the sound of water flowing from a wall-mounted stone fountain.

A friendly receptionist greets clients. ‘It’s just a place to relax,’ owner Rob Proctor said. ‘We builtour facilities soundproof so that when the door closes behind you, there is complete silence.’

Forever Young Feature“it only takes an hour to two hours, depending on what you’re getting.”

To enjoy massage therapies at Zen Massage, you don’t need to sign a

contract to become a member. “Some places ask for people to become ob-ligated to relax,” Proctor said. “we believe that defeats the purpose.”

The process of getting relaxation should be stress-free, he said. “we feel that signing contracts adds more stress on people,” Proctor said. “This is more of an in-and-out kind of place. we don’t have saunas or showers; we just focus on giving a good massage.”

Part of having a successful massage is drinking plenty of water. “It flushes the toxins out that are released once you get a massage,” Proctor explained. “you will also want to stretch as much as you can.”

Every detail about giving clients a successful massage is taken into ac-count. “Even the water we serve our clients is special,” Proctor said. “it’s highly filtered because water is key.”

Fée Halsted’s Award-Winning Ardmore Designs Featured At Ceramic Art Show

Being an artist and an equestri-enne is a winning combination for Fée Halsted with her celebrated ceramic art studio and stables at ardmore in south africa. Halsted will be juggling both when she comes to town in January as she attends the World Dressage Masters and the Florida Ceramic art show.

With her circus heritage, Halsted is no stranger to juggling and perform-ing. Her great-grandfather traveled the world as part of the royal equestrian Cooke’s Cirque. He could jump five bar gates while standing on the back of three mounts, so it is no surprise his descendants all have turned out to be incredible riders.

Halsted began riding at age 3 and loved to gallop bareback, playing cowboys during her childhood years in Zimbabwe. as a teenager, she com-peted in Zimbabwe and then spent six months working at iris Kellett’s stables in County Kildare, ireland.

During her studies at the University of natal in Pietermaritizburg, Halsted missed her horses but loved the art classes, eventually compromising by riding every morning before lectures. she learned to draw and study nature at an early age and flourished as a painter. after graduating with a bachelor’s de-gree with honors in fine art, she took an advanced diploma course in ceramics, where she began her journey to move south african pottery from the craft world to the realms of fine art.

in 1985, she moved onto the ardmore farm in the shadow of the Drakensberg Mountains and began making ceramic art with Bonnie ntshalintshali, the daughter of the farm hand. this dynam-

ic, creative partnership was rewarded in 1990 when they were the first ceramic artists to be nominated for the standard Bank Young artist award, the preemi-nent artistic award in south africa.

their success drew in many of nt-shalintshali’s family and friends from neighboring farms who wanted to learn from Halsted and earn a living by throw-ing, modeling and painting the ceramics. she encouraged the new ardmore artists to evolve their own personalized ico-nography. they have become renowned for their exuberant use of color and their distinctive modeling of flora and fauna, combining the functional with the deco-rative in ceramic art.

the fantasy of the ardmore world and the sheer fun of the original designs quickly attracted the art world. specialist sales were held at Christie’s of London and sotheby’s in Johannesburg. an heir to the Coca-Cola fortune has collected more than 700 pieces, and museums from new York to Zurich have acquired choice pieces of ardmore ceramic art. there is also an ardmore masterpiece in the White House.

the unique designs continue to enchant collectors all over the world. Leopards, zebras, giraffes, hyenas and monkeys burst with life from the luxuriant foliage to form quirky and humorous vases, candlesticks, tureens or teapots. there are also exciting forms of grotesque art based on Zulu folklore and intricately textured designs inspired by traditional basket-weaving. some of the sculptural imagery is drawn from the deep affliction of the AIDS pandemic, which has affected the lives of the ard-more community, and a museum has


been built in memory of the founder artist and many other leading cerami-cists. the sale of these wonderful pieces of ceramic art uplifts and supports the ardmore community and their families as the fully-fledged artists are paid per piece.

in november 2010, Halsted was honored in new York by Women’s Campaign international (WCi) for her role in empowering women and uplift-ing their lives in south africa. For the past 12 years, WCi has helped women find their voices by giving them tangible skills in 20 countries around the world. WCi honors individuals who have made exceptional contributions to women’s rights; past honorees include musician John Legend, Vice President Joe Biden and secretary of state Hillary Clinton.

Halsted’s children are now making their careers at ardmore — Jonathan in the management of the pottery and Catherine as a designer. the youngest, Megan, also shows promise as an artist as she embarks on her university career. Like Halsted, the girls are talented rid-ers. they have both been selected for the south african national equestrian Federation’s program to prepare riders for Olympic standard dressage and the 2016 rio Olympics. Megan recently won two stal van de Craen Young rid-ers series, and Catherine is an eight-time sa gold medalist. their champion horse Livius is a legend in south africa and came to ardmore after Halsted swapped pieces of ceramic art to acquire him. “it was a real horse trade, exchanging pots for ponies,” she said.

ardmore truly has the art of winning whether these talented women are per-

Parker returns to Palm Beach to share her story about another fight that she took on.

On Jan. 25-27, Parker will be a guest of honor at the annual Florida Ceramic art show & sale, where she will talk about how she saved Boehm Porcelain, an american porcelain company that was on the verge of being shipped over-seas. Parker was a longtime collector of Boehm, which specializes in collectible porcelain sculptures that are widely considered America’s finest.

after the passing of Boehm’s founder, Palm Beach local and Parker’s longtime friend, Helen Boehm, the company had

plans to move to China. Parker decided to fight for what she considered to be an american treasure. “i had a passion for the artistry, but also for the people who would’ve lost their jobs,” she said.

in 2009, she bought the company. With Boehm pieces showcased around the world, in places from the White House to the Vatican, Parker is respon-sible for saving an american icon.

Boehm founded Boehm Porcelain in 1950 in trenton, n.J. Boehm Porcelain is known around the world as the finest in handmade american art sculpture of birds, flowers and wild animals.

Newly Created Wellington SeniorsCommittee Holds Inaugural Meeting

FY

Years after a task force first asked the Wellington Village Council for a permanent voice for senior citizens in village matters, the inaugural Wellington Senior Advisory Committee finally will have that chance.

The advisory board held its first meeting Thursday, Dec. 6.

The new committee was a priority for Wellington Mayor Bob Margolis in his campaign because, he said, Wellington seniors have often been overlooked.

“We have so many different advisory boards, and I think that’s a big segment of this village that we were missing,” Margolis said. “We have the seniors club, but they are more social in nature.”

In 2006, the council created a task force to look into is-sues plaguing Wellington’s elderly residents. At the helm was Chairman Howard Trager, who now sits on the Senior Advisory Committee.

“The council at that time wanted to find out what we were or were not providing for seniors,” Trager said. “We did surveys to find out what seniors wanted and gathered information for the village.”

And the task force discovered that Wellington was not of-fering as much programming for seniors as it did for other demographics. “There was a large segment of the population who basically have not been served, with the exception of the Wellington Seniors Club,” he said.

Other issues such as housing and transportation were also on the forefront of seniors’ minds, Trager said, adding that with the census predicting that as much as 23 percent of Wellington’s population will be senior residents by 2020, the task force agreed it was important for them to have a voice in village operations.

“One of the top recommendations was that council create an advisory committee,” Trager said. “We felt that Welling-ton was doing amazing things for kids and equestrians, but it was time to do something for seniors.”

But the idea did not gain traction until earlier this year.Newly appointed Senior Advisory Committee Chairman

Tony Fransetta said he felt senior issues were made election issues to gain support. “I think they wanted to get past the next election and give people the impression that something was being done for the seniors,” he said.

Trager said he hopes the committee can be a voice for seniors and senior issues.

“I think it will be an opportunity for seniors to have a voice and express some of their needs,” he said. “That includes transportation, which Wellington has addressed, assisted and independent living, healthcare and, of course, the community center. We’ve been talking about that for years, and nothing

has been done. There are several major issues, but there has never before been a sounding board for seniors.”

Margolis has long advocated for seniors to take an ac-tive role in planning for the rebuilt Wellington Community Center, but he said he believes the committee will be useful long after the new building is erected.

“I think that they can help facilitate interactions between seniors and the government,” he said. “By that I mean how to navigate through programs like Social Security, Medicare and more. I see them being a liaison and instructing seniors on where to go if they have problems.”

Fransetta said he hopes the committee can identify needs in the community and suggest programming that can benefit seniors. “I don’t see us administering the programs but rather identifying a need and suggesting we create programs to fill those needs,” he said.

One of those issues is housing. “We still have an exodus of seniors leaving Wellington,” Fransetta said. “They are downsizing and finding themselves in positions where they can’t afford or aren’t physically able to maintain the property they live in.”

Though the Dec. 6 meeting was mostly organizational, Fransetta said he requested that the committee solicit com-munity input on issues. “There’s no sense in us having a senior committee meeting without allowing input from residents,” he said.

He encouraged anyone with a stake in issues affecting se-nior citizens, be they seniors or children of senior residents, to come to meetings and have their voices heard. “We’re trying to set this up to suit the needs of the seniors in Wel-lington, but also the populace in general,” Fransetta said.

Who Would Have Believed It? Joe Nasuti (Yours Truly) Has Turned 70!

Joe Nasuti is an entertain-ment columnist for the Town-Crier newspaper. His monthly Memory Lane columns feature memories from bygone days.

FY

WoW: Joe NasuTi is 70! i cannot believe it, and thanks to Dr. Jeff Wisnicki, i don’t look it! Where did all those years go? Married at 18, raised five children, the oldest of whom is 50, two grandchildren and one great-grandchild about to turn 1.

one thing is for sure … i’ve had a great life, probably in the top 5 percent of anyone in my generation, still going strong and looking forward to my next 38 years. Why 38?

My great-grandfather told me when i was 8 years old that he was going to live to 106 and i would live to 108. and, for your information, he died on his 106th birthday! i believe in reincarnation, so i only hope that when i come back … i will come back as me.

The main reason i’ve had such a good life is that i am the most optimistic person you will ever meet. i don’t worry about anything. i take life one day at a time and enjoy each and every day of my life. i don’t know the meaning of the word no … and I firmly believe that everything is possible!

some of my best memories are:

senior year at Bishop Neumann High school in south Philadelphia. Talk about fun, fun, fun … and, my daddy let me drive his T-Bird!

My marriage to my high school sweetheart, stella, the births of my children, grandchildren and great-granddaughter.

Dancing on Dick Clark’s American Bandstand and working as weekend DJ for WiBG Radio 990 (1956-1960).

every summer in sea isle City, N.J. it does not get any better than being at the south Jersey shore … so much to do, no matter what your age is.

My move to Jupiter in 1986 and 27 years of the sunny Florida lifestyle.

Five years of being the marketing director at Palms West Hospital (1988-1992)

My past 12 years writing for the Town-Crier as “The Phantom” and Forever Young’s “Memory Lane.”

The past 20 years as the “MRi Guy,” the best job in the world!

Finally, those special moments with my family, friends and my Kathryn!

a great life is made up of great memories, and i have thousands of them.

in closing, i want to thank everyone who made my life such a hoot over the past 70 years, and i sincerely hope i made your lives just a bit happier!

Well, that takes care of this month’s stroll down Memory Lane. once again, i hope i jogged your memory and brought a smile or two to your face. until next month, remember: We can’t help growing older, but we don’t have to grow up … so please stay For-ever Young (like me)!

When I Was Younger, I Never Fell ...Now Every Ramp Is My Mortal Enemy

Deborah Welky’s humor column The Sonic Boomer is published weekly in the Town-Crier. Follow her on Twitter at www.twitter.com/TheSonicBoomer and visit The Sonic Boomer page on Facebook. FY

I’ve been waTChIng a lot of YouTube and “america’s Funniest videos,” and I am feeling better about the occasional stumble I take due to the various gradations of my bifocals. at least I have an excuse!

what excuse do these teenagers have for stumbling down a flight of stairs on their skateboard? Or landing hard atop a brass railing with one leg on each side? Or taking their bicycle so high into the air that the front tire falls off and sends them free-falling toward a face-plant in the dirt?

Oh, yeah — they’re kids. They’re impervious to everything, or so they think.

In my case, taking a tumble because I looked down at the curb instead of up at the sky could kill me. At the very least, I’d be in a cast for weeks. These kids get up and shake it off while their friends (still film-ing) are laughing themselves silly and saying, “Dude, I thought you were dead!”

They’re not dead. They’re lisping through broken teeth, “Didja get that on film? You did? Siiiick.”

My friends would have dropped the camera and had me halfway to the emergency room by then. If even one of them said, “I thought you were dead!” my solemn response would have been “Me, too.”

Six weeks ago, I sprained my ankle by falling off a 4-inch ramp. A ramp! Something that had been put there for the express purpose of saving people from falling!

but Debbie doesn’t have time to traverse an entire 3-foot

ramp so she brilliantly steps off the side, a side she can’t see because she is carrying four gallons of apple cider and eight dozen gingerbread cookies on a tray, and she lands on the ground quite dramatically but, unfortunately, there is no one there to see it.

by the time her husband Mark rounds the corner, her ankle has swelled up and she is surrounded by paraplegic gin-

gerbread men and a heavy aroma of apples. “I think I need ice,” I said.

Thanks to ice and bed rest, I was up and about the next evening, but on my way up to bed I had an epiphany: I decided heaven and hell are like a staircase — going down is easier. Faster, too.

Mostly, though, I was mad at my-self. And embarrassed. Since when do I fall to the ground? The last time I did that I was 15, running down a ramp in slippery shoes. No, I did go flying off a poorly constructed skateboard ramp when I was 41.

Maybe it’s ramps. Maybe they have it out for me. Come to think of it, the last traffic ticket I got was for driving too fast down an exit ramp. Hmmm.

OK, ramps are on my danger list — something to be avoided at all costs.

In Florida, that’s going to be tricky. There isn’t so much as a treehouse down here without a ramp leading up to it. And how am I going to get on and off airplanes?

I think if I ever decide to end it all, I’ll put on my bifocals and a pair of shoes with plastic heels and go for a walk around the old Wellington Community Center — you know, the one near the pool. It’s got both a ramp and a hill — double trouble.

It’s where the Wellington Seniors Club meets.
