COMMUNITY Green Light for New Inclusive Playground at Patch Reef Park Boca Raton, FL – The Boca Raton community received a sneak peak at the new inclusive playground coming to Patch Reef Park when Greater Boca Raton Beach and Park District commissioners unanimously approved its design plans during their recent public meeting.

“We’re really excited,” said David Ogman, who brought the idea of creating a more inclusive park for children like his son, Jordan, to district commissioners. “I think that the kids are going to like it.”

David and wife Stacey attended meetings between District officials and architects from Walters Zackria, providing valuable input throughout the design process.

The new inclusive playground will replace the Pirates Cove playground, located in the western portion of Patch Reef Park between the softball fields and the basketball courts.

The new playground is designed to allow

“I know from watching some of these kids, they are eager to keep up with their peers,” Commissioner Steve Engel said. “They want to be just like their pals and this gives them that opportunity.”

Eight-yearold Jordan Ogman’s battle with TECPR2 provided the impetus for the project. When the Ogman’s petitioned district commissioners earlier this year for a playground more suitable to Jordan’s abilities and those of other differently abled children, commissioners acted quickly to approve the request.

Nearly all of the park’s natural features, including grasses, trees and rocks, will remain. Climbing structures, swings

and slides will have softer artificial turf underneath, along with shade structures above for year-round comfort.

The existing splash pad will receive a makeover, adding new interactive elements. And a new Bankshot Basketball feature that exposes children to the sport in a non-competitive manner via adjustable hoops and different carnival-style games will be installed.

Features like a wheelchair-compatible swing set and slides mounted on grassy hills rather than ladders afford easier access for children of all abilities.

“It’s very apparent this is a place where everyone belongs,” district executive director Briann Harms said.

www.bocaratontribune.com

For the parents, additional benches afford better, shaded, sight lines for monitoring their child’s play. There will be completely new picnic areas, restroom facilities and additional ADA parking. A fence will surround the entire playground area to keep curious children from wandering unsupervised into different areas of the park.

With the design approved, district officials began the process to solicit bids for the playground’s construction.

The district will also enter the city of Boca Raton’s permitting process.

“We’re just anxious to see (Jordan) in the park enjoying it,” district Commissioner Bob Rollins told the Boca Raton City Council during August’s joint meeting between the two bodies.

There is good reason to move the project along as quickly as possible.

Children with Jordan’s condition rarely live into their second decade. Jordan constantly expresses his excitement for the construction of the new playground.

Honoring Rosalynn Carter, a Habitat Humanitarian and Inspiration Habitat for Humanity of Greater Palm Beach County is deeply saddened by the passing of Rosalynn Carter, former First Lady and devoted affordable housing advocate. For more than 30 years, her work with Habitat for Humanity alongside President Jimmy Carter, has served as an inspiration for millions. Her dedication to creating a world where everyone has a safe place to call home changed thousands of lives and empowered families and individuals around the world.

As we mourn the loss of Rosalynn Carter, our thoughts and prayers are with the Carter Family. We are thankful for the shining example of compassion and servant leadership set by Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter. Their work with Habitat for Humanity brought global attention to our mission and encouraged countless volunteers and supporters to become involved.” – Jennifer Thomason, President & CEO The Carter’s first volunteered with Habitat for Humanity in 1984 near Americus, Georgia, the birthplace of Habitat for Humanity. That same year, a large-scale renovation of an abandoned building in New York marked the first-ever Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter Work Project. This week-long home building blitz continues every year.

Since 1984, President and Mrs. Carter have worked alongside more than 104,000 volunteers across the United States and in 14 different countries. The

Carter Work Project has built, renovated, and repaired 4,390 homes worldwide.

The impact of Rosalynn’s dedication cannot be easily quantified, and in 2016, President Carter and Mrs. Carter were named the inaugural Habitat Humanitarians in recognition of their tremendous work and support of building a world where everyone has a decent place to live.

Rosalynn Carter will be deeply and profoundly missed, but the impact of her leadership and compassion will live on forever.

Boca Helping Hands Fed Thousands of Families for Thanksgiving Boca Raton, FL – Boca Helping Hands distributed thousands of meals to families for Thanksgiving on November 18 and 10 in Boca Raton and Boynton Beach during Its 19th annual Thanksgiving Box Brigade program, which provides a turkey and a box filled with everything a family needs to prepare a holiday meal. Over the weekend, the organization provided Thanksgiving meals to approximately 13,650 people. Members of the community can still get involved by donating the cost of a box for $29.72 at BocaHelpingHands.org/Thanksgiving.

With a 9% inflation rate in South Florida – the highest rate in the country, and twice the national average – many local residents are still struggling to provide for their families. According to the 2023 Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed (ALICE) Report for Florida, 43% of Palm Beach County households struggled to make ends meet, with 12% of those living below the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) and 32% earning above the FPL but not enough to afford the most basic budget.

“We understand the challenges many families are facing, and the Falcone Group is proud to support the Thanksgiving Box Brigade again this year,” said Falcone’s CEO and Chairman Art Falcone. Other Thanksgiving Box Brigade supporters include Bob and Anita Kriensky, the Grife Law Firm, AvalonBay Communities, Verizon, and Vertical Bridge.

Boca Helping Hands distributed the

turkeys and Thanksgiving meal boxes to current Pantry Bag Program clients the weekend before Thanksgiving (Nov. 18 and 19) at its five drive-thru distribution locations in east Boca Raton, west Boca, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, and Lake Worth.

“We are so grateful to the community each year for their food drives and Thanksgiving box donations,” said BHH Executive Director Greg Hazle. “Their generosity means that people who would not otherwise be able to sit down for a holiday meal can enjoy one with their family.”

Although there has been tremendous community support for the Thanksgiving Box Brigade program, food insecurity remains a problem year-round – especially now with inflation stretching families’ budgets even thinner. Having surpassed 10,000 pantry bags distributed in a month for the first time in its history last year, BHH is now consistently distributing over 10,000 bags per month. As consumer food prices and housing costs remain higher than usual, BHH expects that more families will need to utilize their pantry bags of groceries and hot meal program to help make ends meet.

To help, please visit BocaHelpingHands.org/Thanksgiving and donate the cost of a Thanksgiving box. Any contributions that exceed Thanksgiving expenses will be used toward the organization’s food programs throughout the year, helping to support the 181,000 families in Palm Beach County facing food insecurity.

Now in its 25th year of operation, Boca Helping Hands (BHH) is a community-based nonprofit that provides food, medical and financial assistance to meet basic human needs as well as education, job training and guidance to create self-sufficiency.

Through its various programs, BHH assists nearly 35,000 people annually.

Boca Helping Hands is a partner agency of The Town of Palm Beach United Way. Since 1945, the Town of Palm Beach United Way has been committed to improving lives and building strong communities

throughout Palm Beach County by focusing on programs and priorities that promote education, health, and financial stability.

Boca Helping Hands holds accreditation for Sound Nonprofit Management from Nonprofits First, has a 2023 Platinum Seal of Transparency from Candid/GuideStar, and was named a Four-Star Charity by Charity Navigator for the 16th consecutive year in 2022.

The What, Who And Why Of Thanksgiving This week the United States marks the annual Thanksgiving Day observance. Similar holidays on various dates are observed in other nations, including Canada, Ger many, Japan, Austria, Grenada, Saint Lucia, Liberia, and unofficially in countries such as Brazil and Philippians. Researching special days for thanksgiving has shown that observances also are conducted in the Dutch town of Leiden and the Australian territory of Norfolk Island.

This raises some questions: If we observe a day of thanksgiving, what should we be thankful for?

And to whom should we be thankful? What if we live in a country that does not have any designated observance for thanksgiving? Let’s look at these questions individually, using the Bible as a guide: What should we be thankful for?

Sometimes we are inclined to pat ourselves on the back when we experience success and important accomplishments. It might be true that we have worked hard to achieve

those things through our abilities.

However, how did those opportunities come about? How did we receive the innate talents and skills we used? We certainly did not purchase them at the mall or a specialty store.

In many cases, we were born with traits useful for the kinds of work we do.

What about circumstances that were not desirable, times of hardship and adversity that we could not avoid? Should we be thankful for those as well? A friend of mine, Albert, after experiencing many difficult times personally and professionally, concluded yes, we should be thankful, even for the “bad stuff.”

Because God uses such things in our lives for our ultimate good and His glory.

So, the Scriptures teach, we should be thankful during the good times in life – but also for the bad times. Because the Lord uses them all as part of His refining process for us. The Bible says, “Rejoice always…. In everything give thanks,

for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:16,18).

To whom should we be thankful? As noted above, in many cases we did not create the opportunities that led us to success and notable achievements. And the abilities and talents we utilized might have been developed and refined with time and practice, but the “raw material” was given to us by God. This is why the Scriptures urge us to, “Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, as you sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him” (Colossians 3:16-17).

What if ‘Thanksgiving Day’ is not observed in the nation where you live? Being thankful – or even having a personal ‘thanksgiving day’ observance – does not require a national edict or even a local procla-

mation. It can be, and should be, a natural response for the blessings we receive every day.

In fact, for those of us who believe as James 1:17 says, “Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows,” our giving of thanks should be an everyday occurrence. As the psalmist wrote, “…that my heart may sing to you and not be silent. O Lord, my God, I will give You thanks forever” (Psalm 30:12).© 2023. Robert J.

How to Replace Your Fear With Trust “He did rescue us from mortal danger, and he will rescue us again.

We have placed our confidence in him, and he will continue to rescue us.”

2 Corinthians 1:10 (NLT) Sometimes the fears in your life can be loud, demanding your attention. But you can trust that God is with you and for you and is more powerful than whatever you’re afraid of.

When the apostle Paul was in a frightening situation, he chose to November 23 - November 30, 2023

trust God instead of giving in to his fear. When he did, here’s what he found to be true about God: “He did rescue us from mortal danger, and he will rescue us again. We have placed our confidence in him, and he will continue to rescue us” (2 Corinthians 1:10 NLT).

You have a choice just like Paul did. Choose to believe God is watching over you. Choose to trust him. And choose not to give in to your fears.

God promises believers that,

no matter what happens to us, he is working for our good—if we love him and follow him: “Now we know that all things work together for good for those who love God, who are called according to His purpose” (Romans 8:28 TLV). If you’re a believer, God promises all things are working together for good—not that all things are good but that they are working together for good.

That means you can stop listening to your fears because there is no difficulty, dilemma, defeat, or disas-

www.bocaratontribune.com

ter in the life of a believer that God can’t ultimately get some good out of. There is no need to fear the future.

Your fears reveal where you do not trust God. So, today, make a list of your fears and ask God to help you identify the reason you have them. Then ask him to help you replace your fears with trust.

Now, this is important: Expect God to start helping you learn to tr ust him with each fear. Then, watch to see how he does help you.

COLUMNIST BEEN THERE, DONE THAT By: Thomas J. Madden

Are We Giving Democracy A Bad Name Globally?

Imagine folks living in a small country abroad and all they hear about America are the mass shootings that have become so insanely popular among America’s lunatics. Having once looked up to us as the shining city on the hill, are they now scratching their heads?

They’re undoubtedly asking why a sicko Maine mass murder wasn’t denied access to guns when the ex-serviceman was so obviously mental he had been banned from using military weapons, but owning a semi-automatic rifle he used to kill 18 neighbors, no problem!

Then they see scenes of homeless people sleeping in streets of major cities and the latest sport, armed looters invading stores and carting off merchandise like herds of maniacs set loose in an asphalt jungle.

Then you hear news after news report how it took weeks to replace the third most powerful person in our gov-

ernment, all because one disgruntled congressman rallied a handful of like-minded dissidents to give his predecessor the boot.

And a former United States president keeps getting indicted, arrested over and over and charged with committing a slew of crimes, which he claims was just exercising his rights of free speech, yet he’s still the leading Republican candidate for a second term and becoming more popular with each speech and each arrest.

Now antisemitism is on the rise again in the U.S. and islamophobia along with it from the egregious attack on Israel by a ruthless Hamas mob’s mutilating babies and taking elderly Israeli women and children hostage. So, how is Israel to respond? Complain? No, it’s determined to eliminate the dire threat of Hamas now using civilians in Gaza propagandistically as human shields to inflame antisemitism.

So, in the land of the free, home of

the brave, are we giving freedom and bravery and a resoluteness for righteousness a bad name? Would today Francis Scott Key call it The Star-Strangled Banner? Never!

No matter what happens, amid the occasional excesses, we’re still the greatest Nation on earth and we cherish freedom even when those weirdos abuse that special privilege, one we all enjoy, and we’re willing to fight and die for.

But what must those living in autocratic countries like China and Russia think of democracy? Are they seeing us like there’s no holds barred? Like we’re still the wild west? A free for all? Drug addicts and fentanyl united?

Do they see an incongruous country that worships the right to bear arms no matter if some of the worshippers are looney?

The impression we’re making globally is upsetting sometimes, so we’d better

get our act of freedom together.

We’d better send out more uplifting scenes of democracy in action, for with all its flows and drawbacks, there’s no better, no more fair or inspiring system on the face of this bipolar planet of ours than democracy and the precious freedom that goes along with it!

Yes, it can be messy and clumsy at times, even divisive and dispiriting, but let us always be that shining democracy on the hill, that beacon of light the world looks up to and will try to emulate and want to follow.

Tom Madden is a veteran public relations professional who right now believes democracy and freedom could stand some good PR. He is the CEO of TransMedia Group, which he started when he left NBC. He’s also an author whose latest book WORDSHINE MAN is about how to make writing inviting and inspiring to do right.

A Bridge or a Tunnel for Fort Lauderdale?

It’s being called the “great train debate” in Broward County.

Should the Florida East Coast Rail line which now accommodates Brightline and in the future could also handle commuter rail (The TriRail Coastal Connection has been consistently put off but still should happen at some point).

Right now the rail line runs over a draw bridge crossing the New River and that is a significant impediment to frequent rail service. The current Fort Lauderdale station for Brightline is north of Broward Blvd.

By Patrickhamiltonbrightline – Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=67588717 Broward County Commissioners favor a higher bridge over the river, but one which would still need to open for larger boats and yachts. The City of Fort Lauderdale led by Mayor Dean Trantalis wants a tunnel which will cost an estimated $3 billion to build and about the same to maintain over the next 50-60 years.

The estimated cost of a tunnel is far greater than that of a bridge – though in my view the costs of the bridge have been underestimated in order to build momentum for this “cheaper” option. A federal November 23 - November 30, 2023

grant would cover the cost of the bridge while it covers only a portion of the tunnel costs. While no one wants higher taxes, Broward County already passed a transit project tax which to this point has helped improve bus service but had done nothing with train-styled commuter or mass transit.

the relocation of the current station, probably to either south of Davie Blvd or north of Sunrise Blvd. That would no doubt be disruptive but probably worth the trouble in my estimation.

The new bridge would placate marine interests while not really improving the public or mass transit options. Less frequent bridge openings don’t impact the trains per se currently because the present bridge (built in the late 1970’s) remains up but then is lowered for Brightline, CSX or FEC crossings, on schedule each day.

But the bridge bring down more often at a higher level will allow less disruption to marine traffic.

Quite frankly I think a “no build” option might be better than building a new bridge. Much like the higher bridge that was built on 17th Street in the late 1990’s, you’d be going from one type of draw bridge to another – less frequent openings to be sure but still not solving the problem A new bridge would span about 1 1/2 for what should be a high density, public miles with its approaches and may necessi- transit line. While it would make marine intate the move of Fort Lauderdale Station terests happier, the current situation isn’t in (pictured above). It would also obscure the any way catastrophic for them . views of downtown and perhaps be an eye Building a tunnel which will allow for sore. The Tunnel would be close to three future growth of higher-speed and commiles and without question would force muter rail is the only way to go here.

3 Ways to Take the Stress Out of Holiday Hosting

(StatePoint) The holiday season is one of the best times of the year! Between cooking, cleaning and keeping guests entertained, it can also be pretty demanding on your time and energy.In fact, during the holiday season, adults are five times more likely to say thelevel of stress in their life increases rather than decreases, according to the American Psychiatric Institute.This year, make life easier for yourself with these stress-reducing holiday entertaining tips:Meal PrepGetting ahead on meal prep can mean more time spent with friends and family. If you’re tasked with serving a big holiday meal, prep the main dishes a day or twoahead of time so you can just pop them into the oven the day of your holiday feast. You can also brine and season turkey, prepare your glaze and score the ham, chop veggies and pre-mix salad dressings the night before. Festive beverages can be batched in advance so guests can easily serve themselves, helping you stay calm and collected during your party. And of course, don’t feelshy about asking friends and family to contribute a dish.Have Dessert ReadyWheth-

er you’re throwing a holiday bash or expecting overnight guests, you’ll be the host with the most if you have delicious desserts on hand. Fortunately, serving baked goods made with care and quality ingredients is easier than you think!

Stick with the classics like Entenmann’s – a 125-year-old brand with manydeli-

cious options to choose from. Powdered Pop’ettes will satisfy your guests’ sweet cravings, Pop’ems Glazed Donut Holes are great for bite-sized snacking, and Baker’s Delights Mini Crumb Cake has a rich and delicious homemade taste. Convenient choices such as these can keep you prepared for the

night ahead should the doorbell surprise you with carolers or other visitors. They can also round out a buffet spread, help you end a multi-course feast on a sweet note or simplify breakfast for overnight guests. All you’ll need to do is put the coffeeon!Plan a Game NightIf your overnight guests will be spending more than a night or two at your home,you can keep them happy and entertained with some activities that require very little planning but are a lot of fun. For example, you can organize a game night, which is a nice way to maximize your time together. Pick a few games thatare well-suited for the size of the crowd and the age of the players. Remember, the best choices for a party are games that inspire conversations, teamwork and creativity. Or plan a movie marathon, picking some holiday themed crowd favorites in advance.

You can simplify feeding your guests during these low-key activities by putting out some finger foods like crudité, popcorn, pretzels and donut holes.With a few tips and strategies, you can ensure holiday entertaining goes as smoothly as possible

How Military Spouses Can Find Connection and Support

(StatePoint) Military spouses sacrifice stable careers and time with loved ones due to constant moves to new duty stations, and hold down the fort at home during their spouses’ deployments. That’s why the USO prioritizes providing community and support to military spouses. Here are some of the ways their programs are making an impact:• Friendship: USO Coffee Connections are monthly gatherings where military spouses can relax, craft, do yoga, swap advice and go on outings. The goal is building friendships among military spouses. When Jenna King’s husband Tech Sgt.Howard King was forward deployed to Poland with less than 24 hours’ notice, she says she found a home away from home at USO Lakenheath in the U.K., which has been hosting Coffee Connections since the war in Ukraine began. Because of the warm welcome and sense of community she found there, she and her children visit the center often. “There’s something for each of us here,” she said. “Being overseas, friends who are like family are the biggest blessing.

And you can’t turn down free coffee and snacks!”• Support for new parents: Military parents are often away from family and friends during their pregnancies and first months as new parents. USO Special Delivery presented November 23 - November 30, 2023

by Johnson’s are baby showers that provide a touch of home. They allow expectant parents and military spouses to connect and bond, and 72% of participants this year have stated in feedback surveys that this is the only baby shower they will receive. More than 20,000 parents have been served throughthis program since its 2013 launch, including 1st Lt. Erika Pearson, an active-duty service member in the Air Force.

She knew her spouse, 1st Lt. Drew Pearson,could potentially be deployed around her due date. “The USO helped me make friends that I could rely on if

my husband were to miss the birth, and offered me resources I could reach out to, if needed,” says 1st Lt. Pearson.• Professional development: Because of frequent relocations, military spouses often have trouble finding their professional footing. That’s where the USO can step in. Connecting service members and military spouses to resources that focuson employment, education, financial readiness, mentorship and veterans benefits,the USO Transition Program helps military families build a roadmap to achieve their goals and positions them for success throughout

www.bocaratontribune.com

the duration of their service, as well as in their post-military life.• Support while solo-parenting: The burden of solo-parenting can become especially apparent during deployments, when military family members must struggle to find a new normal. For Tessa Michaelson Schmidt, connection with herhusband Brett, a lieutenant colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve, became complicatedwhen he was deployed to Kuwait where there is an eight-hour time difference, unreliable Wi-Fi on base, and the added pressure of being deployed near the frontlines. Because they and their two children have an incredible passion for reading, the USO Reading Program has been a blessing. Deployed service members can record themselves reading a book to their child. Then, the recording and a copy of the book are sent to that service member’s family.

“They have a real response when they hear his voice, and then we get the books in the mail, and they know they’re books from daddy,” says Schmidt, who explained that her children will often watch the videos of their father just before bed, so that in a way, he is present for story time.The life of a military spouse is undeniably challenging. By the USO fostering community and providing sources of connection, military spouses can feel supported and empowered.

SPECIAL A Joyful Journey of Gratitude and Celebration

As Thanksgiving Day approaches and we gather with loved ones to express gratitude for the blessings in our lives, it also marks the beginning of a delightful journey toward Christmas. This season is not just a transition from one celebration to another but a time to carry the spirit of thankfulness forward and embrace the joy of giving and receiving during the festive season.

Thanksgiving serves as a beautiful reminder to pause and reflect on the abundance in our lives. As we give thanks for family, friends, health, and prosperity, it sets the stage for a heartwarming transition into the festive period leading up to Christmas. The gratitude cultivated during Thanksgiving becomes the foundation upon which we build the festive cheer that characterizes the holiday season.

With Thanksgiving behind us, our attention naturally turns to the joy of giving. Christmas is a season that embodies the spirit of generosity and selflessness.

From choosing the perfect gifts for loved ones to participating in charitable activities, the weeks leading up to Christmas offer numerous opportunities to spread joy and make a positive impact on the lives of others.

One of the most delightful aspects of transitioning from Thanksgiving to Christmas is the festive decoration of our homes. The twinkling lights, fragrant evergreen wreaths, and the cherished ornaments that adorn our spaces all contribute to the magical ambiance of the

season. Taking the time to decorate is not just a tradition; it’s a way of infusing our homes with warmth and creating an environment that radiates love and togetherness.

As we bid farewell to Thanksgiving feasts, the aroma of Christmas flavors begins to fill the air. From gingerbread cookies and spiced cider to the comforting scent of roasting chestnuts, the culinary delights of the season are a feast for the senses. Embracing these festive flavors connects us to cherished traditions and creates a sense of continuity as we celebrate the season with family and friends.

The transition from Thanksgiving to Christmas is marked by the continuation and creation of traditions. Whether it’s the annual tree-lighting ceremony, caroling with neighbors, or cozying up by the fire with loved ones, these traditions weave a tapestry of memories that make the holiday season special. Each tradition is a thread in the fabric of our lives, connecting us to the past and shaping the memories we create for the future.

As we journey from Thanksgiving to Christmas, let us carry the spirit of gratitude and generosity in our hearts. The holiday season is a time to cherish the moments spent with loved ones, embrace the joy of giving, and create lasting memories that will warm our hearts for years to come. May the transition from one celebration to another be a seamless and joyfilled experience, as we savor the magic and wonder of this special time of year.

Levis JCC’s 8th Annual Judy Levis Krug Boca Raton Jewish Film Festival: More Than Just a 3-Week Festival Boca Raton, FL – The Adolph & Rose Levis JCC (Levis JCC) is proud to present the 8th annual Judy Levis Krug Boca Raton Jewish Film Festival (JLKBRJFF), and announces its 2023-2024 lineup of diverse Jewish and Israeli films and special events.

The 3-week festival, viewed by more than 3,000 film enthusiasts in 2023 will return to Cinemark Palace in Boca Raton, Movies of Delray, and the Levis JCC in Boca Raton, from February 10 through March 4. More than just movies, the multi-access festival connects people to one another, to the community and to a variety of experiences and stories through film.

One of the country’s largest niche film festivals and a premiere destination for Jewish and international films, JLKBRJFF meticulously cultivates a variety of film genres ranging from comedies and love stories to political and historical dramas. Audiences will also enjoy special guest appearances and discussions.

“JLKBRJFF is not merely a film festival—it’s a celebration of Jewish culture, reflecting the dynamic community that supports it,” said Stephanie Owitz, VP of Arts, Culture and Learning, Levis JCC. “Films have a distinctive ability to share universally resonant stories, and there has never been a more relevant time for us to tell and share these stories.”

The Festival will also feature three signature events.

On Wednesday, Dec. 6, from 10 a.m. to noon at the Levis JCC, the much-anticipated 2024 Festival Reveal will offer a preview of what’s to come with trailers of engaging and entertaining documentaries, shorts, and feature-length, Jewish-themed films from around the world that will be screened during the Festival. This event is free and open to the public; RSVPs are required.

The Red Carpet Event on Wednesday, Jan. 10 at 5 p.m. at Boca West Country Club will include a dinner and the Southeast premiere of “Left Alone Rhapsody: The Musical Memoir of Pianist John Bayless,” a documentary by Stewart M. Schulman. Internationally acclaimed pianist John Bayless, who experienced a debilitating stroke halting his storied career, will perform live. This is the story of his determination to come back, playing with just his left hand. General admission is $180.

JLKBRJFF’s Closing Night on Monday, March 4 at 7 p.m. in Zinman Hall will feature Yiscah Smith, subject of the documentary “I Was Not Born a Mistake.” Smith, a teacher, spiritual mentor and public speaker is dedicated to helping people navigate their own personal spiritual journeys. Transitioning from living as an Orthodox man to embracing her identity as a woman, Yiscah offers insights that encourage authentic living. A Q&A session with

Yiscah will follow the film. General admission is $54.

“We take great pride in being Boca Raton’s original Jewish film festival,” said Adolph & Rose Levis Jewish Community Center’s Grand Benefactor Judy Levis Krug. “Through the medium of film, we are not only entertained but educated, allowing us to understand and appreciate the diverse tapestry of our shared heritage. There has never been a more crucial time for us to share the strength that emerges from standing together.”

Cultural arts programming demand remains strong throughout the season.

And with two new film series including the Sunday Morning Israeli Film Series and Fascinating Sephardim, A Film Series, presented in partnership with The Sephardi Federation Palm Beach County, audiences will gain an appreciation and understanding for di-

versity within the culture.

The Israeli Film Series will be screened one Sunday a month at 9 a.m., from December to February and in April, at the Levis JCC, moderated

by Mort Plotnick. General admission is $18 per film.

Fascinating Sephardim, A Film Series, examines places in the world where wandering communities of Sephardic Jewry took root, expanding the diversity of world Jewish history and heritage. Screenings are one Wednesday a month at 1 p.m., from December to January and March to May, at the Levis JCC. General admission is $10 per film.

The mission of the Judy Levis Krug Boca Raton Jewish Film Festival is to provide the newest, most stimulating and thought-provoking films that encourage audiences to expand their awareness and understanding of the Jewish world and engage in dialogue to explore the many diverse perspectives portrayed by the films presented.

The Adolph & Rose Levis Jewish Community Center promotes and enhances Jewish culture, heritage, and values through educational, spiritual, social, wellness and recreational programs for individuals of all ages. With a preschool, summer camp, family activities, athletics, cultural arts, adult enrichment, and special needs programming, as well as a Resale Boutique, the Levis JCC offers something for everyone.

Symphonia Season Opener Brings Audience To Its Feet

By Marci Shatzman The Symphonia chamber orchestra opened its 2023-2024 concert season with familiar works by Handel, Tchaikovsky and Copland’s “Appalachian Spring,” and an astonishing performance by an international violin virtuoso who’s only 19.

Even Symphonia maestro Alastair Willis was impressed with Hina Khuong-Huu’s direct connection to violin superstar Itzhak Perlman through The Julliard School and Columbia University. And local culture aficionados knew she had just won the 2023 triennial Elmar Oliveira International Violin Competition held at Lynn University in Boca Raton. “The youngest of four finalists scooped the first prize in the concerto final with her performance of Sibelius’s Violin Concerto in D minor on Jan. 29,” according to the Boca Raton Tribune.

It was nearly a full house for the recent 3 p.m. Symphonia performance in the Roberts Theater on the campus of the St. Andrew’s School on Jog Road, where all the Symphonia concerts are held. Standing ovations for the other works and this wunderkind, who has already appeared on international stages and will perform Dec. 1 at the Kennedy Center in D.C. For newer residents or others wrongly lamenting Boca’s cultural lapse, here’s the link to the Symphonia’s concerts on Dec. 3, Jan. 21, March 17 and the finale “Seeking Hayden” and the only evening con-

cert at 7 p.m. April 13. Each is preceded by an informal 2 p.m. intro by maestro Willis and an audience Q&A. https://thesymphonia.org/attend/events/ Willis dedicated the opening concert to the late Marshall Turkin, who directed major orchestras, composed and continued to perform in Boca with his jazz group well into his later years. His sons just donated his famous Steinway to the Conservatory of Music at Lynn University in Boca.

Since its inception in 2004 and first concert season in 2005-2006, the Symphonia has become the official orchestra of Festival of the Arts BOCA. So it wasn’t surprising to see Festival executive director Joanna Marie Kaye. Her husband Jeffrey Kaye is the Symphonia’s principal trumpeter and on the artistic advisory committee. The Festival just announced its lineup for March under the seated tent in Mizner Park Amphitheater. The headliner is none other than soprano extraordinaire Renée Fleming. Early bird tickets on sale at https://festivalboca.org/ Also in the house was Florida Intergenerational Orchestra maestro Lorraine Marks-Field with her husband and orchestra manager Robert Field. Their annual holiday concert is coming up soon. https://festivalboca.org/ “There’s nothing like hearing live music,” Symphonia board secretary Sung Knowles said after the opening concert. Amen.

Pamela Higer-Polani, an esteemed Attorney at Law and a driving force behind the Brain Bowl Luncheon expressed her gratitude to sponsors, volunteers, and attendees who have played a crucial role in the event’s success over the past ten years.

The luncheon, in addition to being a gathering of minds and hearts, also serves as a reminder for attendees to consider their estate planning needs.

As the excitement builds for the 10th Annual Brain Bowl Luncheon, the community eagerly anticipates the wisdom and inspiration that Tim Tebow is set to share. The event not only celebrates a decade of community involvement but also sets the stage for continued philanthropy and positive change in Boca Raton and beyond.
