United Airlines Is Making a Big Boarding Change In what some might see as an obvious move, United Airlines is making what media outlets are painting as a big change to its boarding process: Passengers with window seats will board first. Well, they’ll still board after everyone who is allowed to pre-board, plus all the fancy passengers (business class, first class, certain credit card holders, et cetera). But they’ll board before those with middle or aisle seats (as will those in exit rows), the New York Times reports. The process is for some reason referred to as WILMA for “window, middle, aisle,” because after the window seat holders, it’s the middle seat sitters who board next, followed by those in the aisle seats. The final group allowed to board the plane will be those in basic economy, a fare type that does not include a carry-on bag, or anyone without a boarding group listed on their boarding pass, Travel + Leisure reports.

The Times says United tested the WILMA method at five airports in 2017, but other outlets are reporting that the airline once used the method more widely and then stopped using it in 2017, when the basic economy fare was introduced, because its computer systems at the time only allowed for five boarding groups (there are now six, thanks to updated systems). Confusingly, the Washington Post is reporting that WILMA was launched in 2017 because of the introduction of the basic economy fare, but was later paused and is now resuming.

Whatever the case may be, the airline most recently boarded its planes in the “standard frontto-back approach” most airlines use, Conde Nast reports. It says using the WILMA process, will reduce boarding time by up to two minutes. Some online commenters were predicting aisle seat holders won’t be happy if all the overhead bin space is taken by the time they board.

SWEET AND SPICY ASIAN STYLE CHICKEN WINGS

Notes from the Cooker, Traveler, Master Gardener and Serious Sipper of Creative Cocktails

Sweet, a bit spicy, and incredibly delicious, you can’t stop eating these wings once you get started!

My next project will be to cut up a whole chicken and use this amazing glaze on an entire bird!

INGREDIENTS: • 3 lbs. chicken wings • 1/2 cup ketchup • 1/2 cup unseasoned rice vinegar • 1/4 cup soy sauce • 2 tablespoons honey • 1 tablespoon Chinese chili garlic • salt and pepper • chopped scallions • white sesame seeds • chopped cilantro (optional) 12 Shop In RI

by Al Milukas

To make the glaze, combine the ketchup, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and chili garlic sauce in a sauce pan. Simmer it over medium heat, reducing the sauce by half. Set it aside.

Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.

Season the chicken wings with oil, salt and pepper. Spread them out on a sheet pan lined with non-stick foil and bake them until done, about 30 minutes.

Remove the chicken from the sheet pan and place them in a large bowl. Raise the oven temperature to 400. Pour off any fat or liquid from the sheet pan and discard it.

Bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, until you just start seeing a little char on the edges of the wings.

Plate the wings and top them with the scallions, sesame seeds, and cilantro.

case due to changes in the CARES Act. You can still qualify for the ERC even if you’ve already received federal funds like a PPP loan.

The potential benefits of ERC are substantial. While you can qualify for up to $26,000 per employee, real-world cases have shown Adesso clients securing refunds of up to $150,000. The difference it can make to your business is undeniable, and it’s certainly worth investigating whether you qualify, especially since determining your eligibility is a straightforward process that takes only three minutes.

Unlocking the Benefits of the Employee Retention Credit

By Dale J. Venturini,

President/CEO, RI Hospitality Association (RIHA)

As we navigate the complexities of hospitality’s business landscape in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain issues, rising costs and staffing shortages, it is imperative that we stay informed about every opportunity that can help our businesses not only survive but thrive.

To that end, I’d like to shed light on a crucial financial incentive that has been extended to businesses like yours: the Employee Retention Credit (ERC).

The ERC was established to support businesses impacted by COVID-related restrictions. Recognizing the vital role that small businesses play in our local and national economies, the federal government is motivated to ease the financial burden caused by the pandemic. While this is encouraging, it’s essential to realize that the ERC’s availability might be time-limited, underscoring the urgency of taking advantage of it now.

At its core, the ERC is not just another tax deduction— it’s a credit that directly reduces the total taxes owed to the IRS, which translates to real savings for your business. Once approved, you won’t need to worry about paying it back in the future. The landscape of ERC laws can be tough to navigate, and recent updates have only added to the complexity. Surprisingly, many certified public accountants (CPAs) are still catching up with these changes. To ensure your success, our recommended partner, Adesso Capital, specializes in ERC applications and can help you secure the maximum refund possible. Their team of experts is well-versed in the intricacies of the ERC and can guide you through the application process to make it as seamless as possible.

A distinctive advantage of the ERC is its retroactive nature. This means that if you meet the criteria, you could be eligible for a refund or credit on your next tax bill. The path you choose depends on your specific circumstances, so consulting Adesso’s experts is crucial in understanding your options.

So, who can qualify for this credit? If you own a US-based business with 1 to 500 full-time employees, retained at least two non-family member employees on payroll in 2020 and 2021, and have experienced partial or full shutdowns, reduced operations, or revenue decline from previous years, you could be eligible.

Our collaboration with Adesso Capital has already helped numerous businesses like yours secure substantial ERC funds. Adesso’s experienced team of CPAs are ERC experts, well-equipped to evaluate your eligibility and guide you through the necessary paperwork, ensuring a streamlined and successful application.

The road to post-pandemic recovery is paved with opportunities like the ERC. By partnering with experts, understanding the nuances, and making informed decisions, you can secure a brighter financial future for your business. In these uncertain times, the ERC can provide a much-needed boost to your bottom line, and I urge you to explore its potential.

Stay resilient, stay informed, and let’s thrive together.

For more on RIHA’s partnership with Adesso Capital, please visit: www.RIHospitality.org/Marketplace/Adesso.

In the maze of information circulating about ERC, misinformation abounds. One common misconception was that businesses had to choose between the ERC and other federal funds like the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan. Fortunately, this is no longer the Shop In RI 13

Fitness Tips

By Stacie Venagro | 2017 World Miss Fitness America Pro

STAY FIT AND FESTIVE: WHY FITNESS MATTERS DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON The holiday season is a time of joy, celebration, and indulgence. It’s a time when people come together to enjoy delicious meals, exchange gifts, and revel in the spirit of togetherness. However, amidst the festivities and merriment, it’s easy to let your fitness goals take a back seat. But, believe it or not, maintaining your fitness routine during the holidays is not only possible, but also incredibly important. In this article, we’ll explore why fitness should remain a priority throughout the holiday season.

1. Balancing Indulgence One of the primary reasons to prioritize fitness during the holidays is to strike a balance between indulgence and health. The holiday season often brings an abundance of calorierich, decadent foods and sugary treats. While it’s perfectly okay to enjoy these in moderation, staying active can help counteract the extra calories and prevent unwanted weight gain.

Regular exercise helps you maintain a healthy weight and avoid the common “holiday weight gain” phenomenon.

2. Reducing Stress The holiday season, despite its joys, can also be a stressful time for many people. There’s the pressure of gift shopping, family gatherings, and the year-end workload. Engaging in regular physical activity is an excellent way to combat stress. Exercise triggers the release of endorphins, the body’s natural mood lifters, which can help reduce anxiety and boost your overall sense of well-being.

3. Maintaining Energy Levels With a packed holiday schedule that includes parties, shopping, and travel, it’s easy to feel drained. Regular exercise can help maintain your energy levels and combat fatigue. It improves blood circulation, oxygenates your body, and keeps your muscles and joints flexible. This,

in turn, helps you stay energized and ready to tackle your holiday to-do list.

4. Strengthening Immunity The holiday season often coincides with the arrival of cold and flu season. Staying active can help bolster your immune system. Regular exercise has been shown to enhance the production of immune-boosting cells and antibodies, making your body better equipped to fend off illnesses that might dampen your holiday spirit.

5. Enjoying Quality Time Staying fit during the holidays doesn’t have to be a solitary endeavor. In fact, it can be an opportunity to bond with friends and family.

Consider organizing group workouts or outdoor activities. A family hike, a game of touch football, or a post-dinner walk, can be enjoyable ways to stay active together and create lasting memories.

6. Setting a Positive Example If you have children, maintaining your fitness routine during the holidays sets a positive example. Children tend to mimic the behaviors of adults, and demonstrating a commitment to health and fitness, can instill valuable habits in them from a young age.

While the holiday season is a time for indulgence and relaxation, it’s also a time to prioritize your health and fitness. By incorporating regular exercise into your holiday routine, you can enjoy the festivities to the fullest, while minimizing the potential negative impacts on your well-being.

Remember that fitness during the holidays is not about deprivation, but is about finding a harmonious balance between celebration and self-care. So, lace up your sneakers, stay active, and savor the holidays with vitality and joy.

Increase CNS (Central Nervous System) Demand: How To Use The Tricks From Functional Training to Improve Your Game In The Cage

By Kevin Kearns

For as long as I can remember I heard forever if you want to become stronger you must move heavy weights. The definition of Functional strength training is strength that you can use. That form has to fit the function. This does not mean you have to throw out all those “high school”and “beach muscle” moves you love. What it means is thinking outside the box a little bit. It means being a little crazy and not giving a chit what people might be saying at the gym about you. Especially if you are in the cage. You need an edge.

So lets look at challenging the C.N.S. (central nervous system). What is the CNS? The central nervous system (CNS) is made up of the brain, the spinal cord, and the optic nerves.

The central nervous system controls thought processes, guides movement, and registers sensations throughout the body.

Here are some key concepts to remember about functional strength training which will enhance your game. Why do I know?

1.Push

These are the same concepts I used with 15 UFC fighters personally.

3. Level change

1. Do not sacrifice weight for form.

2. Multi-Planar motions more like MMA and can be MMA specific.

3. Challenge the CNS (central nervous system).

4. Think outside the box.

5. 3 rules - effective, efficient and safe. The last one is really important. It has to be somewhat safe for what you are doing.

6. Form fits the function.

24 Shop In RI

2.Pull

4. Rotation 5. Locomotion 6. Balance or instability The other benefits of incorporating this type training into your regular training are the following.

1. Increase use of stabilizers and neutralizers (these help with wasted motion and balance).

2. Increase muscle mass usage. You have heard the term “I used muscles I did not know I had.”

3. Helps break through plateaus when training.

It’’s similar to not bench pressing for a while and using a different exercise that involves the chest.

Then after a few weeks you go back to bench pressing and break through that new bench press best!

ups with dumbbells in each hand, push ups with hand on a stability ball, hand stand pushups, push ups with one hand on a med ball, push ups with both hands on a med ball, push ups crossing over a med ball and alike. The combos can be endless and reap awesome rewards.

4. The last and final benefit is helping rehab injuries that you may have without laying off training. This is of primary importance when getting ready for the cage. No game no pay!

Pull ups - Side to side pull ups, towel pull ups, jump squat to pull ups, BJJ go top pull ups, explosive pulls, inverted rows and alike.

The way that this is different from specific balance training is that you are able to integrate this into your everyday routine. You don’t have to do a separate portion of balance training. You add a little “ salsa” to your normal training to spice things up. Here are some other examples.

Drills for MMA specific and enhance balanced Pushups - Try rotational pushups, push ups on a stability ball, lateral push ups, rotational push

Curls - Standing on one leg, bicep curl to shoulder press, upper cuts, squat curl and press, squat curl and press and rotate, squat curl and press and burpee.

The point is with a little imagination your training will be enhanced and your physique in many ways. The young guys will be impressed and fall on their faces the first time they try push ups off a stability ball. Thats an added bonus.

A Wish Come True

Plans Its 20th Anniversary Polar Plunge

by Mark Berger The first day of 2024 will be special for many reasons. For numerous groups and individuals, they will head to the ocean for a great cause, while helping two local kids who are battling life-threatening illnesses.

A Wish Come True (AWCT), the oldest wish-granting organization in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, will host its annual Polar Plunge at Easton’s Beach (aka First Beach) in Newport on Sunday, January 1st, from 11:00 AM until 1:30 PM. Please arrive early, as parking will be limited.

This year’s “Wish Kids” are Sofia (from Warwick, age 6) and Graciela (from West Kingstown, age 16). Both wish to travel to Florida to visit Disney World, SeaWorld, and Universal Studios!

Sofia of Warwick, RI Sofia was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia back in July of 2022. She is on an aggressive chemo cycle every three weeks to help her fight off the cancer.

44 Shop In RI

Sofia loves arts and crafts – especially drawing and painting. She also loves to shop at Target and play with her dog and bunny! Sofia is excited to spend quality time with her family and make memories in Disney and SeaWorld!

Graciela of West Kingston, RI Graciela was diagnosed with cerebal palsy. She was a micro-preemie and twin survivor, being born at 23 weeks old and weighing 1.2 pounds. She spent the first five months of her life in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU). Graciela has had 11 surgeries and countless procedures, including a stem cell transplant at 2 1⁄2 years old.

Graciela is a strong and happy teen who loves to learn and have fun. Graciela also loves thrill rides and is excited to ride the Tower of Terror at Hollywood Studios in Disney.

AWCT Executive Director Mary-Kate O’Leary said, “Often, people don’t realize they are donating to help make dreams come true for children with a lifethreatening illness. This event features more than 5,000 people willing to head into the water and be ‘freezin’ for a reason. This past year, we granted 43 wishes, the highest in the history of AWCT. We did not anticipate the great need, but are happy that we could grant these wishes, thanks to the incredible support of the community.

“We are especially grateful to the people who made this event so successful for two decades,” said O’Leary, who will be one of the plungers. “The money we raise from this event goes toward helping children and their families find an opportunity for joy, as well as helping the family get back on their feet during this long and challenging journey.”

Graciela

There are several ways the public can help, according to O’Leary.

Sponsors can help financially starting at $100, with a “Freezin’ for a Reason” level, with other sponsors for $250 (Polar), $500 (Bronze), $1,000 (Silver), $2,500 (Gold), and $5,000 (Presenting), with accompanying benefits at each level. Most importantly, we want people to attend and have a great time. Plungers will be encouraged to give $25 to take the big plunge. In addition, there will be t-shirts, towels and blankets for sale.

This year, we challenge companies to form teams to get their employees involved. Individuals may also form teams. Any team that raises at least $1,000 will be entered to win a $1,500 prize!

You can also form a team online at www.awish.org.

Sofia

A Wish Come True also encourages anyone who would like to contribute to their mission to sign up for a recurring gift program. Anyone who does—regardless of the contribution—will be entered into a drawing to win $500.

In addition, A Wish Come True is actively seeking sponsors.

Anyone interested in getting their name or business out to thousands of participants and onlookers, can look into the various levels that begin with Polar Sponsor $250 (that includes recognition on a T-shirt and provides a family to be transported by limousine) to a Presenting Sponsor $5,000 (that covers basic family needs, and includes event signage, website notice, and mentions in social and mainstream media).

For those who are unable to attend, but want to help, AWCT has two outlets for people to donate. They can either go to Venmo and give at @awishcometrue, or visit www.bidpal. net/20thannualpolarplunge to make a pledge.

For more details about the event and/or the organization, please visit their website at www.awish.org. Or, feel free to contact Mary-Kate O’Leary, either by phone at 401-781-9199, (directly) at 401-644-2237, or via email at: marykate@awishcometrue.org

About A Wish Come True A Wish Come True, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization founded on October 8, 1982.

How to Get the Most Out of Passive Income in Your Portfolio By: Edward Pontarelli Jr. Passive income is broadly defined as money that comes from investments rather than employment wages. Examples include dividend income generated by stock investments or rental income derived from property you own. Passive income can play an important role in helping to meet day-to-day expenses and to accumulate wealth for retirement.

According to research from Ameriprise Financial, 40% of investors across multiple generations have some form of passive income, and more than two-thirds (77%) of investors say passive income is important or very important to their retirement strategy.

Having more than one source of income to draw from can be a powerful way to hedge against risk and ensure you have the means to cover your expenses. This is particularly true for retirees who no longer earn a traditional income and need to recreate their paycheck.

Five primary ways to generate passive income Passive income can originate from a variety of sources. Here are five ways to generate passive income that may be a fit for your financial portfolio: #1 – Dividend-paying stocks and mutual funds or ETFs Stocks that generate competitive dividend yields are a prime source of passive income. If choosing individual stocks, pay attention to their track record. Companies with a history of raising dividend payouts consistently over time may offer the best, long-term opportunity. You can also find mutual funds or ETFs that emphasize dividend-paying stocks. #2 – Bonds and bond index funds or ETFs Investing in bonds is another way to generate income. Even if you are in the accumulation stage of life, bond income can play an important role in helping you build wealth. Not only do bonds offer a way to diversify a stock portfolio, but in today’s market, bond yields are increasingly attractive. Consider that at the end of 2021, the yield on the benchmark 10year Treasury note was 1.52%. At the end of August 2023, the yield was more than 4%. Bond funds and ETFs are generally offering more competitive payouts today as well. #3 – Cash instruments Like bonds, cash-equivalent vehicles such as money market funds and certain certificates of deposit and bank savings accounts pay more attractive yields today. This is in line with changes to the yield environment in the broader bond market. Money put to work in this way generally has the added benefit of protection of principal value. Not only can you earn competitive returns, but you do so in a relatively safe manner. #4 – Rental property Some people choose to own property, such as houses or apartments, rent them out and use the income to buffer their nest egg. While this is considered a passive investment, there may still be some sweat equity and ongoing costs involved in maintaining properties and attracting and managing tenants.

You’ll also want to pay close attention to the state of the real estate market where you invest in properties. Ideally, these properties will appreciate in value over time.

#5 – Real estate investment trusts (REITs) If the idea of generating income from owning properties appeals to you, but you don’t feel prepared to tackle the challenge of direct ownership, REITs offer an alternative.

REITs are professionally managed like mutual funds, with money invested in properties such as office buildings, apartment complexes, retail spaces, warehouses or hotels. Those who invest in REITs primarily benefit from the income stream generated by the properties held. REITs are subject to market risk and various fees, and dividends are taxed as regular income. Evaluate any investment options carefully to understand how it may impact your situation.

Work within your overall plan Passive income is most effective when the investment strategy is implemented within the context of your overall financial plan (with the plan itself designed according to your unique goals, timeframe to achieve them, and level of financial risk you want to accept along the way).

Work with your financial advisor to determine how best to incorporate passive income strategies. A professional can discuss the advantages and drawbacks of the strategies above in more detail, and point you to other options not listed here. And as a final tip, keep in mind that while passive is in the name, you should regularly review your passive income strategy to make sure it’s helping you a chieve your financial goals.

Don’t Let Emotional Investing Cloud Your Judgement By: Carrie McPherson When it comes to money, it’s easy to let your emotions get the best of you – particularly during periods of personal stress or market volatility. Even seasoned investors should 1 guard against making financial decisions based on feelings instead of facts.

Here are four common investment biases that can cloud your judgment. Keeping these tendencies in mind can help you avoid making regrettable decisions regarding your hard-earned money.

Overconfidence: Overconfidence implies that investors tend to overestimate their ability to generate a return and underestimate the risk associated with a particular investment. For example, imagine you are an investor who has recently had success picking winning shares. You may conclude that the success is due solely to your investment skill. That may be the case, but it’s also possible the results were due to market forces outside of your control. The problem is that in either case, recent success may encourage you to take greater risks. While this could lead to greater profits, it’s just as likely to result in greater losses.

Herding mentality, which is the tendency for investors to follow and copy what other investors are doing, also tends to distort near-term risks in up markets. Thus, investors can mistakenly discount the volatility and chance for loss as they seek to chase higher returns. Investors are best served by following objective information and building in an expectation that stocks do not move in a straight line.

Aversion to loss: Aversion to loss is innate. It is said that one feels the pain of a loss twice as strongly as the joy of a gain. In an attempt to minimize the pain associated with an investment loss, investors may be more prone to take action that can lead to the derailment of their long-term investment success. In market drawdowns, investors can be quick to react, selling stocks, and over-allocating to bonds or cash to avoid further losses and protect their nest eggs. Many investors sold down their stock funds in favor of bond funds and cash during the 2008/2009 financial crisis. Unfortunately, by doing so, they missed out on the subsequent rallies that eventually took place and helped propel stocks to new highs.

While it is tempting to move to the sidelines during times of market stress, investors may want to avoid over-allocating to cash and avoid locking in investment losses that they would not otherwise incorporate into their regular portfolio management activity. Importantly, if you maintain a well-diversified investment mix and own high-quality stocks and bonds, you should be better able to stomach near-term investment losses and ride out the eventual market cycles that come and go with time.

Anchoring: Anchoring implies that investors tend to rely too heavily on specific information or lean on recent circumstances to make decisions. Our minds can ”anchor” to information and use it as a reference point moving forward, regardless of its relevance. For example, investors may hang on to poor investments by waiting for them to break even at the price at which it was purchased.

48 Shop In RI

If you’re trying to decide whether to sell or hold a stock, are you basing your decision on what you know about the company and the state of the market? Or are you basing your target price on the purchase price or other measures that may be less relevant to the stock’s future course?

To help combat such biases, it’s important that investors accept that market circumstances routinely change and sometimes suddenly. Therefore, your outlook may need to change accordingly. Investors can adjust to new market developments by seeking objective information, leaning on a financial advisor for sound advice, and setting realistic assumptions for potential returns.

Pattern-seeking behavior: Pattern-seeking behavior describes our brain’s desire to seek out ways to compartmentalize the flow of information and find patterns that help us make sense of the world quickly. Since our brain is hardwired to do this, investors can mistakenly believe they see patterns in market trends that prove false. Since the future can be unpredictable at times, and patterns are not always present, investors may want to incorporate the following: • Establish realistic expectations for your portfolio, both from a return and risk perspective.

• Expect markets to move in unpredictable ways, particularly during periods of market stress.

• While the near-term is unpredictable, generally, stocks move up and to the right over the long-term.

• Society is aging, and growth is slower. That means the patterns of the past may be harder to apply to the future, or possibly, not relevant.

Truly understanding your risk tolerance and your threshold for loss can go a long way in helping you maintain a level head during times of market stress.

If you suspect your personal investing bias and emotions are interfering with your investment decisions, defer to the experts. Ask a financial professional to conduct an objective review of your portfolio, with an eye to performance and your financial goals. Together you can look for opportunities to grow your investments through disciplined investing strategies.

Lil’ Rhody Pickleball Opens its Doors Rhode Island’s largest indoor Pickleball facility is now open for business!

By Mark Berger High school friends and partners, Richard Storti and Kevin O’Brien, shared a vision, and together built this state-of-the-art facility in North Kingstown.

“The response from community has tremendous,” said Storti

the been

Besides the membership and staff, a key factor to their immediate success are the courts themselves. The courts are designed specifically for Pickleball and for nothing else.

The club features five full-size indoor SportstMaster PRO-cushion courts. They are composed of five layers of rubber pellets, two coats of sand, and several layers of acrylic topcoat.

Storti shared, “It’s great to see the investment in the courts has had such a positive impact on the members’ playing experiences.

We have members that play 2-3 hours a day, every day; the courts are very forgiving on the body.”

According to the owners, about 50% of its membership are newcomers to the sport.

The owners understand the importance of providing lessons and opportunities for these members to play with others at their skill levels.

Because there are so many new players entering the sport, the club provides a “Pickleball Boot Camp.” These three-hour sessions may have as many as

50 Shop In RI

eight students at a time. The courses usually take place either on Saturday or Sunday. During the camp, the pro will review all aspects of the game, along with the rules and scoring. He or she will provide basic instruction as to all the different shots you’ll need to master. Teaching the basics of court awareness, both with and without a partner.

“Once you complete this lesson, then you will have greater confidence. The game itself will be more enjoyable for you and everyone you play with in the future,” Storti said.

The cost for non-members for these services is $130; members pay $100.

This indoor model is certainly new for Rhode Island, this being only the second indoor club in the state. The Club model ensures the member controls when they play, and when they

arrive the court is ready, so they jump right on and play.

The member also chooses how long they want to play. Outdoor programs are great and have for years been the only option.

However, on outdoor courts, sometimes you play a few times, sometimes you show up and you can’t even get on the courts. Weather never affects indoor play, and the climatecontrolled environment makes it comfortable, even when you’re working up a sweat. Everything is scheduled in advance.

The members log into the booking portal right from their phone. From there, they may reserve private courts, lessons, leagues, and drop-in play. If you’re at the office and it’s 3:30 pm and you decide you want to play at 5:30 that same day– open the portal to see if the court is open, so that you book it just before you arrive.

Membership starts at $39 per month, which includes 120

hours (per month) of free play.

Membership also allows you to book private courts for $30 or $40 an hour, take lessons, join leagues, or just drop in and play with others, all matched up in the calendar by skill level, at different times throughout the day.

The club is impressive in size, scale, and decor. The energy level in the club is amazing, and the lighting and court colors are vibrant. There is a clear feeling of community and you sense that the moment you walk in the door.

It’s very obvious that a lot of thought went into creating the membership experience.

“It’s amazing to see, in just a few weeks, the community that has developed. I was shocked today after realizing that almost a thousand people have passed through the doors in just under four weeks,” said O’Brien.

O’Brien goes on. “We struggled

to find the right location, ceiling heights, column spacing, welllighted retail space, with a rent factor that made the membership affordable. We did, but it took almost eight months.”

Pickleball is on the rise in Rhode Island! America’s fastest-growing sport is touching down in the Ocean State, with 33 Pickleball courts across the region and a number of great organizations.

For the uninitiated, Pickleball is a racket or paddle sport in which two or four players hit a perforated, hollow plastic ball with paddles over a 34-inch-high net, until one side is unable to return the ball or commits an infraction. Pickleball is played indoors and outdoors. In the summer of 1965, Pickleball was founded by Joel Pritchard, Bill Bell, and Barney McCallum, on Bainbridge Island, Washington.

Within days, Joan Pritchard had come up with the name “pickleball”—a reference to the thrown-together leftover non-

starters in the “pickle boat” of crew races.

“All across Rhode Island, from Newport to Providence, Bristol to Narragansett, people of all skill levels are picking up their paddles and starting to play Pickleball,” according to the Pickleball Union website.

Storti and O’Brien welcome “private events,” businesses or organizations, reserving courts, and using Pickleball for employee team building or to entertain customers. The club has rental paddles and balls, and the event can be competitive or casual. An instructional pro can also add value to the event.

Lil’ Rhody Pickleball is open weekdays, from 7:00 AM until 10:00 PM, and weekends, from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM. They are located at 6655 Post Road in North Kingstown.

Customer Service Key To Success For Couto Brothers Moving & Storage

By Paul Lonardo Robert Romano had plenty of service industry experience before getting into the moving and storage businesses. After graduating high school, he started his own limousine service. Then, he ran a florist for many years with his wife, Marie.

He’s also worked at Sam’s Club as a meat cutter, and learned a lot about the moving business while employed as an estimator for a moving company.

When that business closed in 1999, an opportunity arose when a prominent Pawtucket moving company announced it was for sale, and Romano wasted no time purchasing Coutu Brothers.

While keeping the original name of the company, Romano operates it with employees that include members of his own family, such as his daughter Jerilyn, and his two sons, Robert Jr. and Michael.

Romano is what you call a hands-on CEO, the kind of owner that if you do not find him in his office, you are just as likely to find him operating a forklift in the warehouse. He has to wear many hats because he knows that superior customer service is what it takes to succeed. He understands that his clients are going through a stressful time. Moving is a major life change, and handling people’s property is a responsibility that he does not take lightly.

Coutu Brothers handles commercial moving, as well as residential moving, and the same care is taken in all jobs. Safe and efficient transport and relocation of personal belongings is the primary goal for Romano and his team, but quality service is the one thing that people always remember.

That’s why at Coutu Moving and Storage, they always try to accommodate clients who call with an urgent need to get moved quickly, sometimes as fast as 24-hours from the time they call.

“If it’s possible, we’ll do it the same day,” said Romano. “We’ve done it before.”

In keeping with this service-first approach, Coutu Moving charges their regular rates on Saturdays.

“There won’t be any surprises or unexpected costs when you move with us,” Romano explained.

54 Shop In RI

Being in the business so long, Romano came to realize that many of his clients had a need for storage rentals. When you can’t take everything with you on a move, instead of parting with items you treasure by selling them or giving them away, Coutu Moving provides the option of storage to stow them safely and inexpensively.

When Romano decided to expand the moving business to include storage several years ago, he first acquired a much larger facility just a few blocks away at 2 Greco Lane in Warwick, and then he opened a second storage facility in Cranston, with 12,000 square feet of space.

“Our storage facilities make it easier for our clients who have both moving needs and storage needs,” Romano shared. “We can accommodate both needs right here, all under the same roof.”

The state-of-art storage units are all climate-controlled, and belongings are protected with 24/7 surveillance and motion detection technology in a12,000 square foot warehouse.

“Our storage facility was designed with security in mind,” Romano said. “And that includes protection from fire, theft, and damage.”

Storage units are available for the short or long term, whether it is for overnight use, or on a month-to-month basis, or even for five years.

Coutu Brothers Moving & Storage was ranked in the Top 25 “Fastest Growing Private Companies” from 2013 to 2023, by Providence Business News.

With seven trucks on the road, they cover all of Rhode Island and Massachusetts, but also move clients all along the east coast and around the entire country.

They utilize a centralized booking system with web-based customer portals to make the moving process stress-free from the moment a move is booked. They are fully licensed, insured, and accredited by the Better Business Bureau with an A+ rating. All employees are fully experienced professional uniformed drivers & laborers, who have passed background checks and drug screens.

They are also all members of the Rhode Island Trucking Association and The American Trucking Association in VA. For information and rates for moving, or to get prices on storage units, contact Coutu Brothers Moving and Storage at 401-739-7788 or info@ coutumovers.com.

My name is Tom Lopatosky. I’m the President of LOPCO Contracting (www.

LopcoContracting.com) & I’m honored to have the opportunity to talk to you about home improvement on a monthly basis. I love answering your questions! Please send them to tom@ LopcoContracting.com or call 401-270-2664. Thanks in advance for taking the time to read this column!

The Beauty of a Built-In A ‘built-in’ is a term used in construction that is right up there with the best of the, in terms of those that can be confusing for whomever may be hearing it for the first time.

When someone thinks of something being ‘built-in,’ their mind may automatically gravitate toward something as simple as the cupholder in their car. “I have a built-in cupholder in my car,” you may hear from an excited friend. “Oooooooo…fancy…” you may think in your head, (or perhaps not). The concept is very similar in home construction.

But whereas a built-in cupholder (to keep with this example) may be something that is fairly standard in the way that it is done across a variety of lines of cars, a ‘built-in’ in someone’s home tends to be a bit more custom.

Though there certainly are instances in home building where a ‘builtin’ feature may be one selected from a line, which the builder typically provides to their clients, upon request; the built-ins that I happen to more consistently run into align with something which is truly designed and constructed for the specific home that I come across them in.

While built-ins certainly may have elaborate designs behind them and take hours upon hours to create, built-ins are much more often (at least in my world), crafted by master craftspeople and cabinet folks who, although might have a set of basic drawings that they are following as they are building the built-in, they may also not even have a plan at all, and simply rely on their intrinsic vision & talent for craftsmanship that is beyond what the average person may own.

The built-in units I typically see are those that are more so on the cabinetry side, which often boast some type of shelving system, sometimes even a window seat.

The imagination definitely is the limit, however, in terms of what the

64 Shop In RI

concept of the built-in is limited by. I have seen built-in beds that drop down from a wall, built-in aquariums, built-in tables, etc. The possibilities are endless for intertwining a variety of possible tracts for this cool feature in peoples’ homes.

Not as common as a built-in bookshelf or dining room cabinet, built-ins, such as the aquarium idea, are usually SUPER AWESOME (the aquarium is my personal favorite!)!!

Built-ins can be worked into the design of one’s home (as we have pointed out earlier), or they can be built along the way as someone is simply trying to more efficiently use a space that for a period of time, they have had no idea what to do with.

Built-ins can be painted or finished with some type of stain & polyurethane system.

Whatever the finish coat system happens to be, it should be quite durable (think along the lines of something that will provide an enamel-type finish), similar to what you would find associated with a solid kitchen cabinetry system.

Sometimes built-ins blend so well with the natural state of a room that one may never even realize that the built-in is a built-in.

Other times built-ins are meant to be the focal point of a given room (back to the aquarium example).

Whether a built-in is something you are simply looking to for extra storage in the kitchen, or if it was for a huge room with high ceilings whose walls (floor-to-ceiling) themselves consist of bookshelves to form a library, the two-fold purpose of usefulness and cosmetic appeal of built-ins are an age-old phenomenon, which add unique character to whatever home they happen to grace.

Toyota of Smithfield, located on George Washington Highway near the Smithfield/Lincoln town line, has new and certified, pre-owned vehicles on their lots.

44 Bradford St., Providence, RI

“Anyone who trades in either their used or certified, pre-owned car, will receive an additional $1,000 over book value,” he said. “There won’t be a better time for anybody to trade in their car. Your trade is worth more now, than it ever has before, and it’s worth more now than it’s ever going to be worth,” stressed Durrani.

Regardless of which type of car or truck you desire, the dealership has the knowledge to make the car-purchasing process easy.

General Manager John Durrani hopes those looking for their next vehicle will work with the sales department to take advantage of dealer incentives.

For those who already possess their dream vehicle, they should visit Toyota of Smithfield’s award-winning service department to keep their vehicles running smoothly. Their highly-trained staff are adept at diagnosing the small problems that can turn into major headaches if left unattended.

With their inventory still lower than normal, Durrani said that they are eagerly accepting any used cars. There are several incentives designed to get those looking for a newer vehicle out of their older car and into one that is more suitable.

“We are still appealing to the community for their used vehicles. Simply put, we lack the available inventory to adequately fulfill orders,” Durrani explained.

To help facilitate the need for more certified, pre-owned vehicles onto their lot, Toyota of Smithfield also offers 115% of the book value for any used cars. In addition, there will be no pressure or need for customers to purchase a new car from their lot.

“We will buy your trade, even if you don’t purchase a car from us,” Durrani shared.

The dealership holds a monthly private sale. This month’s event is scheduled for Saturday, November 25 and Sunday, November 26, from 10:00 AM until 6:00 PM, by appointment only. Managers will be there to answer questions and to offer additional incentives.

Their Peace of Mind Purchase Process means no hassles over pricing, trade-in values, cash back and rebate incentives offered up front and the best available leasing and financing terms up front. Durrani said that this is just part of the all-around, customer-driven experience he implemented to ensure the process does not get bogged down in miscommunication.

Should a client need help outside the area, then their network of dedicated staff can make the process flow smoothly Fonseca said that having a strong network and staff that is ready to help are reasons to consider using their company.

That alone saves time and hassle for our customers.”

Fonseca said that the current housing market can be challenging. While the inventory is low nationally, he noted that there are areas that have plenty to choose from. He added that increasing interest rates and low selectivity are keeping people in their residences.

Liberty Title and Escrow seeks realtors, lenders, and anyone looking to start the house purchasing process to contact them for a free, no-obligation consultation.

They are located on 275 W. Natick Road. Further details can be found by contacting them at 401374-4470 or Roymfonseca@gmail.com.

Pontarelli’s reputation has led people from all walks of life to his shop. Professional athletes, actors, and high profile figures have entrusted their vehicles to him. Speaking of vehicles, he has had the honor of working on the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile.

He has sent cars to Barrett Jackson Auctions and Mecum events. Ray was also featured in multiple publications locally, nationally, and globally. He is a quiet and humble guy, who always reverts back to thanking his staff and community. He believes without them, there is no Sunshine, while stating that each person has two hands, one to give and one to receive. He certainly does that. Each month, his business donates to a different charity, including local schools, youth sports programs, and civic activities.

During the pandemic, he put his skills and

talents to the test. Having multiple certifications, from bio hazard to bloodborne pathogens and more, he assisted law enforcement, fire departments, and various medical facilities, to help keep their personnel safe, cleaning and sanitizing vehicles, so that first responders were able to do their job to help others.

Pontarelli will tell you that he would never think that something as a hobby would turn into what it has today. Now that he has taken on the igl Coatings line, he has brought his business to a new level. He is able to apply coatings to just about anything, such as vehicles, counters, clothing, floors, and even antirust corrosion. His work ethic and skills are impressive on their own, and much importantly, he leads by example, working right beside his staff, daily.

Pontarelli’s clients wait 5-6 weeks for an appointment just to get their vehicle in his shop. He even has had clients come down from Canada to have him work and ceramic coat their vehicles. He has a stellar reputation and amazing character, both which have enabled him to be successful in all of his endeavors.
