‘Hard Hats and High Miami-Dade Parks: Healthier Heels’ Join Forces Lifestyles for South Florida to Build a Home By: Chris Carson Chris@INYBN.com
Miami-Dade County encompasses over 2,000 square miles of land. That’s more than the states of Delaware and Rhode Island. The Miami-Dade Parks, Recreation and Open Spaces Department is the third largest in the United States. It spans approximately 13,500 acres of land, which is made up of 270 parks, clearly a substantial amount of land dedicated to outdoor activity.

South Florida’s inf luential professional, social and philanthropic leaders will come together Thursday, June 8th for the second-annual Hard Hats and High Heels Cocktail Reception and Fundraiser between 5:30-8 pm at EAST hotel at Brickell City Centre. Hosted by the Miami Habitat’s Women’s Leadership Council, the gala will raise funds through ticket sales and a lavish silent auction with must-have items for the purpose of building a home for a single mother and her children. “One of the key differentiators with Habitat for Humanity is that we give families a hand-up and not a handout,” said Danet Linares, Chair of Habitat Miami’s Women’s Leadership Council. “Once a family qualifies for a Habitat home, not only will they be purchasing that home with an
interest-free mortgage, but they have to contribute at least 250 hours of sweat equity to help build their home and also the homes of other families in the program.” Habitat’s mission states that “Everyone deserves a decent place to live” and “we build strength, stability, reliance and shelter.” “From laying a home’s foundation to the financing, each home takes a community to build, with people helping people,” underlined Linares. Since its inception in 1989, Habitat for Humanity of Greater Miami has transitioned 1,100 low-income families to safe, affordable single-family homes on land donated by the county or acquired through private donors. This year, 22 families have already made the “renter-to-owner” transformation throughout Miami-Dade County and 10 more are on schedule to become first-time Continued on page 17

Upon my arrival at Cose Nostre, an Italian Bakery and Café located at 367 Alhambra Circle in Coral Gables and just a few blocks from Miracle Mile, I was greeted by a terrific staff that seated me comfortably at a table near the open kitchen and sitting bar, where one can be entertained by the talents of Chef Brian Zuccarini, a Milanese import. From handcrafted focaccia to homemade pasta, each bite is delectable. Paola Altamonte, the waitress, was very helpful and knew the menu in interpreting the choices. We started with the Bufala Caprese, fresh buffalo mozzarella, organic

heirloom baby tomatoes, basil and a balsamic glaze. The tomatoes were bite sized and sweetly perfect. The tender skin explodes inside the mouth, releasing the earthy juices that diffuse an aroma akin to that of fresh-cut grass when lounging on a field. The cheeses are all imported from Italy, and only the best organically sourced vegetables are served. The menu changes weekly, depending on what is available and locally sourced. The tuna tartare is made with avocado and creme fraiche. The Burrata, served with Mediterranean anchovies basil and red peppers, was heavenly. For a main course, we ordered the Ravioli Short Ribs, consisting of fresh handmade raviolis stuffed with short ribs in a creamy mushroom sauce and finished with truffle oil. A Pasta Fresca week was celebrated with a four cheese Amaretto ravioli that was seductive in its sweetness and had an unexpected crunch reminiscent of Italian Amaretto candy. I was blown over by the deliciousness of the sweet and crunch and salt. The entire table swooned, and with ample portions, the dishes can be shared. T he Tagliat a al Fu nghi Porcini
with Italian porcini murshrooms and fresh arugula as well as shaved parmigiano and prime angus beef, grilled to order, was a perfect secondi course. Patricia, a friend who accompanied me to help savor the multiple options, had the Linguine Al Nero Di Seppia Misto Mare (squid ink linguini with a homemade mix of seafood, shrimp, and a slightly spicy tomato sauce). With many other tantalizing menu items and Friday night live music featuring tenor Rolando Polo, as well as other events, wine tastings ,open mic, karaoke and more, we have plenty of reasons to return. Don’t forget the dessert with homemade cannoli and sfogliatelle, filled to order with Cose Nostre’s imported Sicilian sweet ricotta cheese. Wine selections are limited but excellent. We ordered a Berselli and Olivieri Merlot from a vineyard in Piemonte, Lombardia, Puglia which was divine. You can also try the Ver-
consummate host who instantly becomes family, the ambiance is cozy. The chef is always busy and smiling, and the waitress fills your glass of water so often that you do not even notice how efficiently she flows from one table to the next ensuring that the glasses of wine, water , juice are filled and that everyone is content. You know that it’s a first rate restau-
rant when patrons sing along with the tenor, on Friday night, flashing smiles as they toast each other and enjoy the cuisine. Cose Nostre is open for breakfast and Lunch from 8 am to 4 pm and offers a Happy Hour from Wednesday to Saturday from 4pm to 7 pm, with $5 Italian wines and beers and $5 appetizers. Sunday Brunch, which is served from 11 am to 4 pm, is a trip to Italy, with homemade focaccia and Spremuta d’arancia ( freshly squeezed orange juice).

TRAVEL TIPS: How to Save Energy
B USI NE SS HU B
and Money When Vacationing “There’s little need for hot water when there’s no one home! W hile ever y water heater is different, you can save energy by switching a traditional tankstyle electric water heater off while you’re away,” Spence said. “Follow your unit’s instructions, and if you’re going to be away for an extended time, you may want to turn it off using your circuit breaker or possibly drain it before you leave.”
By: Tiffany Spence
Florida Power & Light Company Energy Expert
With spring and summer on the horizon, it’s prime time for many Florida families to take vacations away from home. One way to stretch your travel budget even further is to save a little money on your energy costs while you are away. “Many of the energy savings tips our customers use year-round have an even bigger impact when families are away from their homes,” said Florida Power & Light Company Energy Expert Tiffany Spence. “It’s simple, really – vacations offer great opportunities to reduce your energy usage without even noticing, and that can help lower your bill.” Here are the top tips to save energy and lower your bill while on a vacation: Spr ing clean before you leave. “Cleaning or changing your A/C filter, vacuuming the coils behind or under your re-

frigerator and wiping dirt from the track of your sliding glass door are simple chores that will make your home more energy efficient,” Spence said. Don’t cool an empty house. “Let’s say you’re leaving for two weeks. Be sure to leave your A/C on, with the fan set to ‘Auto’ and set your thermostat to 82 degrees or higher,” said Spence. “If you’re going away for longer or even for the
season, you can view a helpful checklist at FPL.com/seasonal to help you save.” Cut back your pool pump hours. “Your pool pump can be the second largest energy user in your home. When there’s no one to swim in it, reducing your pump’s run time saves energy. We suggest running your pool pump four hours in winter, and six hours in summer, per day.” Turn off your water heater.
Maintain your home AC system for maximum efficiency.
Keep lig hts on t i mers. “Lighting is another large energy user in the home, so turning off your lights before you leave for vacation helps you save. For safety and security, you can use motion detector lights or set an indoor light on a timer while you’re away.” Unplug your energy stealers. “It’s surprising, but many smaller appliances or devices use energy even when they are off or idle. For example, just two video game consoles or TV set-top boxes can equal the energy use of a refrigerator! Unplugging these items when you leave (or even when you’re home and not using them) can save you a few dollars a month.” “At FPL, we’re always working to keep your energy bills low and helping you find ways to make them lower,” Spence said. “You can visit us anytime at FPL.com/EasyToSave for more tips, and get a personalized look at how you can save using our Online Home Energy Survey.”

To d ay, t h e M i a m i - D a d e Parks System is home to golf courses, marinas, beaches, fitness zones, and even a zoo. Its goal is to “create a healthier, more livable and sustainable Miami-Dade community by ensuring the implementation of the Parks Open Space Master Plan and the development of year-round park and recreation programs for children, adults and people with disabilities.” In addition

County before leaving to work for Florida International University and then returning to her roots . Her experience with public service and passion for healthy lifestyles made her the perfect fit to work for MiamiDade County Parks. Though Galan hasn’t been around since the inception of the park system, she understands how it has progressed. “ I n t he e a rly 70’s , t he r e weren’t neighborhood parks. There wasn’t a place within walking distance for people to go to; but residents wanted to have them,” explained Galan. The parks system decided to look at what regional parks were having success with. It was determined that people u lt i mately wa nted nu merous, diverse attractions. Not only were small parks vital to residential communities, but large scale facilities were also needed to accommodate n e e d s . Mo r e i m p o r t a n t ly, these attractions and activities needed to reach a wide cross-section of residents. The parks system needed to be as diverse as the visitors it catered to. “ We r e a l i z e d t h at a l l of these aspects were going to ne e d a wealt h of out side agencies to help make the best possible programs available to the people,” observed Galan.
to these facilities, the parks system hosts events such as the Mango Festival, the annual Vintage Auto Show, and camps for every season. These events are at the heart of what the Miami-Dade Parks System seeks to achieve, namely, to bring locals together. “There is more than one way to be social. Some many people turn to social media, which isn’t the healthiest outlet for personal interaction. Our parks service offers people the chance to get out and not only get active, but interact with like-minded people,” said a hopeful Galan. Not only is the parks system good for getting people outside
and improving their physical state, it can have an impact on their mental state as well. “Being active and social can do wonders. I interviewed a woman who had become a widow at 77 and wasn’t doing very well after her husband’s passing. She was on medication and depressed. Then one day, something clicked and she knew she needed to get outside, so she went for a walk,” recalled Galan. It was slow at first, just around her block. But the green space had an impact on her psyche, and she now walks with a group of women nearly every day through a portion of the parks system. And it is not only seniors who can reap the mental and emotional benefits. Fit2Lead is a program that is designed to help at risk youth. Through this program, teens are able to become interns and learn valuable skills within
the parks system. They are not only removed from a bad situation but placed in an environment that helps them thrive. “What’s happening to certain kids due to social media and blanket attacks is just awful. The Fit2Lead program is great for kids that want to change and enrich their lives, to break the cycle of an unhealthy lifestyle,” said Galan. In addition to Fit2Lead, the Parks system offers a variety of other programs to get people active and also encourage them to socialize in a healthy manner. Some of these programs aren’t just healthy for people but beneficial for the planet. BIKE305 promotes g reen t ranspor t ation. T he initiative is geared towards teaching others the benefits of using your bike as more than just exercise equipment. “For people who live in Miami-Dade County, biking

as transportation is easier than you think. The city is very grid-like, and the neighborhoods are easy to transition between. You can do a lot of exploration and have a lot of fun on a bike,” remarked Galan. For more information about the Miami-Dade Parks, visit http://www.miamidade.gov/ parks/ or call 3-1-1. Chris Carson

OUT ON THE TOWN
Historic Preservation Group Launches Destination Series FIRST STOP: PALM BEACH’S MAR-A-LAGO
The Historic Preservation Association of Coral Gables hosted an elegant afternoon at the iconic Palm Beach national landmark of Mar-a-Lago. Over 60 guests enjoyed the sold-out fundraising affair. Proceeds benefit historic resources and their preservation in Coral Gables and beyond. According to HPACG President Karelia Martinez Carbonell, “The Mara-Lago getaway was marvelous. I was personally awe stuck at the standards of stewardship the staff adhere to in order to protect and preserve a landmark that continues to make history.” The event began with a full service, plated three-course lunch in the Teahouse that included poached pear salad, pan seared seabass and key lime for dessert. During the coffee service, guest speaker Rick Gonzalez offered a colorful presentation about the life and times of Mar-a-Lago citing that the almost 100-year old estate has had only two owners: Marjorie Merriweather Post (Founder), and Donald Trump (President of the United States]). The lunch and keynote presentation was followed by a private tour of the estate led
by Mar-a-Lago Event Director Kevern Anandlal along with Speaker Rick Gonzalez, who is the immediate past president of the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation and president of REG Architects. Rick is the official architect/preservationist of Mar-a-Lago since 1995. Guests were awarded with exclusive access to most of the property and its grounds as well as treated to the private tunnel that leads to the beach house and cabanas. The experience was one-of-a-kind. The day was grand for all who are champions of historic preservation. Mar-a-Lago is a National Historic Landmark in Palm Beach, Florida, built from 1924 to 1927 by heiress and socialite Marjorie Merriweather Post. Post envisioned the house as a future winter retreat for American presidents and foreign dignitaries, and following her death in 1973 it was bequeathed to the nation. However, successive presidents declined to use the mansion, which was returned to Post’s estate in 1980 and in 1985 was purchased by Donald Trump, later 45th President of the United States. In 2012, Mar-a-Lago was voted the No.1 historic
building in the state by the Florida chapter of the American Institute of Architects. Since 1995, REG Architects has been the master planner and architect for the historic property. In 2012, Mar-a-Lago was voted the No.1 historic building in the state by the Florida chapter of the American Institute of Architects. Through the years, Gonzalez has worked on the property’s spa, salon, tennis center, beach club, guest villas and ballroom. Rick Gonzalez observed, “It’s been mind-blowing. Think about it, you’re managing your firm with your dad for 30 years and then one of your clients becomes president of the United States. We can say we’re the architects of the Winter White House.” One guest commented, “What a wonderful experience and education… I have a special love of the architecture and history of Palm Beach. [It] is special to see a “working” piece of history.” Overall, the event’s success is due in part to the support of our corporate sponsor Professional Bank. Guests included members of the Vil-

Special recognition goes to professional photographer Emma del Rey for the beautiful images of the day.

Naples
Take a swing at a holiday weekend with a stay at the awarding winning golf course at The Naples Beach Hotel & Golf Club. A treasure since 1946, this hotel offers miles of a pristine beach, a spa to unwind in and an array of dining options. The best thing about being out west is that you’ll have spectacular cotton candy sunsets over the water as you cheer your glasses to a weekend well spent. Make sure to capture one of these sunsets at Baleen Restaurant, highlighting a modern, seafood focused menu. Looking to end your weekend on a sweet note? Take the Naples Chocolate Stroll, a guided walking tasting tour that goes down beautiful 5th Avenue South. You’ll stop in seven boutiques, cafes, and delicatessens to sample all things chocolate.
Key West
Mix equal parts hitting the town with lounging, and you’ll find the recipe for a three day weekend in the Keys. Stop by the recently opened Books & Books, co-founded by young adult author and Key West resident Judy Blume for a page turner to take poolside. Soak up the sun and kick back with your book at the Ocean Key Resort & Spa. After you’ve achieved the perfect bronze, take a tour through the city and make sure not to miss on Hemingway’s House, as well as cool off with a crisp beer at the long awaited Waterfront Brewery. Don’t miss out on the TruMan, a Double IPA brewed in honor of President Harry Truman, who spent a summer in Key West. Do not forget to make dinner plans at the new Thirsty Mermaid, the newest addition from the team behind Blackfi n Bistro, featuring an array of local seafood plates. After dinner, for a frighteningly good time, hop on board the Key West Ghost Tour trolley and venture through spooked locations including Robert the Doll, “the most famous haunted plaything in the world”. Drink away your fright with a Key West Lemonade at Sloppy Joe’s on Duval Street and then roam
the street to fi nd an array of bars, perfect for every type of person. If you’re feeling adventurous and want to head a little further than Florida, we’ve highlighted our top three picks below.
Atlanta
Culminating a month of performances throughout the city, The Atlanta Jazz Festival is the perfect excuse to head to Atlanta for Memorial Day weekend. During the long holiday, Atlanta sees its Piedmont Park area fill with visitors enjoying music on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is the country’s largest free jazz festival, showcasing a slew of artists ranging from jazz legends to up-and-coming jazz greats. If you have some free time, pay a visit to Coca Cola, the College Football Hall of Fame, CNN Center, Georgia Aquarium and the Atlanta Botanical Garden.
New Orleans
New Orleans is a unique city in that it offers something for everyone from the single bachelor to traveling families. While the city is known for attractions such as the French Quarter, the Aquarium of the Americas, The Insectarium, Bourbon Street and The Audubon Zoo, this weekend serves up a unique experience in exploring the culinary scene of a melting pot of a city: The New Orleans Wine and Food Experience. Wine dinners and seminars galore, this is a food lover’s dream!
Tulum, Mexico
Tulum has been drawing tourists more than ever and it’s not just for the Mayan ruins. Fly the gulf and make your way to breathtaking beaches and Elizabeth Halle Born and raised in Miami, Elizabeth seeks to travel throughout the world to explore traditions from different cultures and learn how they shape their day-today life.

Known for the fact that there are barely any electronic appliances, all dishes are mashed or blended by hand, or thrown on the grill. The open air dining space married with citronella lanterns provides the perfect ambiance for its famous whole roasted fish with onions and herbs. Head to Gitano or Restaurare for some post din copas. During the day, grab a bike and sweat off your all-niter the next day at the beach. You’ll fi nd paradisiacal, crystal clear beaches you can easily spend hours in, but don’t forget the sunscreen!

La Galeria Adelmo Presente Fotógrafía de William Riera La Galeria Adelmo se enorgullece en presentar una exposición retrospectiva de fotografía en blanco y negro del fotógrafo de Miami, William Riera. La exposición se abrirá con una recepción con el artista el viernes 26 de mayo de 7:00 pm a 10:00 pm y estará abierta hasta el 28 de junio del 2017. Según lo descrito por el artista, en la actualidad la mayor parte de su trabajo se produce en color, pero William reconoce que las imágenes con las que mejor se conecta son aquellas que una vez despojadas de sus colores hacen que el espectador haga una pausa y observe de cerca, acentuando sus formas, texturas y alma en general, demostrando que una fotografía sin color puede ser profundamente impresionante. Las fotografías de esta exposición son una selección del impresionante portafolio de fotografías en blanco y negro del artista que abarca fotos tomadas desde sus comienzos cuando sólo fotografiaba con rollos de film hasta el presente cuando se destaca en la captura digital de escenas callejeras llenas de energía y emociones. William Riera nació en 1967 en Santiago de Cuba, Cuba. En 1990 se graduó con los más altos honores como Ingeniero de Sistemas de Software de la Universidad Politécnica de La Habana. En 1995 se trasladó a los Estados Unidos, estableciéndose en Miami. Desde 1998 ha dedicado su carrera profesional al sector público trabajando como Desarrollador de IT y Líder de Proyectos para
el Departamento de Tecnología de la Información del Condado de Miami-Dade. Riera ha expuesto su trabajo en varias galerías de arte locales y otros espacios alternativos de arte en donde ha sido seleccionado como finalista en varias exposiciones de fotografía como Capturing Coral Gables, 1er Salón de fotografía de Miami, y también fue seleccionado como “Mejor en Show” en La exposición Photo-voice. También ha presentado su trabajo en varias exposiciones colectivas locales y en Vero Beach, Florida. Su trabajo ha sido presentado en Coral Gables TV, El Nuevo Herald, la revista Dominicana en Miami, la revista electrónica cubana Fullframe. Riera también fue publicado en el XVII Anuario de la Revista Literaria “Baquiana” participando con su personal en la presentación en el Centro Cultural Español de Miami y en la XXXVIII edición de la Feria Internacional del Libro del Palacio de la Minería de la Ciudad de México. Actualmente está estudiando un Taller de Crítica Fotográfica y Estudios Curatoriales impartido por Página en Blando, una escuela de fotografía ubicada en la Ciudad de México. La Galería Adelmo, ubicada en el distrito de Little Havana de la ciudad de Miami, abrió sus puertas en abril del 2010. Su objetivo principal es representar y promover las obras de artistas locales establecidos o emergentes del sur de Florida y otras áreas del país y también del resto de las Américas.

Men’s Grooming Boutique in Miami Hammer & Nails Grooming Shop For Guys expands its reach with the opening of its second location, now positioning itself in Miami, the land of the perfectly manicured. Opening June 2 in The Shops at Midtown Miami, Hammer & Nails will kick-off with a grand opening event to share its man cave nirvana atmosphere, unique manicure, pedicure and barbering services for guys with locals and visitors alike. Industrial lamps and oversized, plush leather chairs with personal 43-inch, flat-screen televisions at each hand and foot station and televisions built into the mirrors line the barbering room, complemented by a collection of framed hammers dotting the walls. The rugged décor pairs with low lighting and dark wood materials to create the ultimate man cave nirvana. Complete with libations and a personal set of headphones with remote controls for the TVs, Hammer & Nails creates a nirvana for men (and women) who are trying to improve their hand/foot health and grooming habits without the thrills and frills of a traditional nail salon. Leading the Miami franchise are managing partners Richard Spado and Mike Nichols, who recently appointed Ricardo Perez as the general manager and Carlos Ferdinand as the master barber Master Barber Carlos Ferdinand joins the Hammer & Nails team with 30 years of practice, leading barber shops and salons in key markets such as New York City, Los Angeles and even Europe. Time Magazine, Esquire and Icon have used the phrase “the best barber in America” to describe Carlos Ferdinand’s work with men’s hair and skincare. “Hammer & Nails is at the crossroad between a traditional barber shop and a nail salon. It creates a laidback, communal vibe for its members,” says Carlos Ferdinand, explaining the reason he decided to join the team. Most recently, Ferdinand was working for two of the top men’s salons in New York City: Spiff for Men and The New York Shaving Company. “We are elevating the playing field by creating a one-stop-shop for grooming needs within a comfortable environment, where men don’t have to feel self-conscious walking in. It’s a progressive step in the world of men’s care.”

Hot shaves and haircuts are only a part of the services Hammer & Nails offers in Miami. Operating on a monthly membership-based model, the shop’s breadth and scope comes in the form of various, distinct manicure/pedicure packages for members to enjoy regularly. “When we first started Hammer & Nails, we noticed there was a void for a shop that focused on the healthcare of hands and feet that catered to men. At Hammer & Nails, we strive for guests to leave this unique hand and foot grooming shop with more than just well-groomed hands and feet,” says Michael Elliot, founder and CEO of Hammer & Nails. “They leave with healthier hands and feet in an environment created to relax and enjoy.” Hammer & Nails recently kicked off franchise sales nationwide with more than 200 licenses already awarded to area representatives. This is part of the company’s overarching goal to have 250 locations open and operating by 2022. The Miami shop will be the first to open.

• Improved civic participation. Homeowners have a greater financial stake in their neighborhoods, leading them to volunteer more and be more politically active. • Improved health outcomes for families. Homeowners tend to report increased happiness and more control over their lives, leading to better physical and psychological health. Owner-occupied housing also tends to be better maintained than rental housing, leading to improved safety and health. • Reduced neighborhood crime rates. Because crime rates can negatively impact property values, homeowners have an incentive to create and participate in voluntary crime prevention programs. There’s more to Habitat for Humanity of Greater Miami than picking up hammers and driving nails. The organization also has a retail store, an annual Blitz Build event and a home rehab program: • The Habitat Restore — Located at 20811 South Dixie Highway in Miami, The Habitat Restore is a retail center that acquires donations from individuals as well as retail giants like Macy’s and Home Depot. Habi-
tat picks up items, makes any repairs needed, then sells them to the public at an affordable price. The money raised goes back into Habitat to help build future homes for families; • Blitz Build — From laying the foundation to the welcome mat,10 homes are built in two weeks with the help of 1,600 volunteers and corporate sponsors, foundations and faith partners. The Blitz Build takes place each February. • A Brush with Kindness — This program provides minor exterior repairs, painting and landscaping upgrades to beautify the residences of existing low-income homeowners, in the vicinity of brand-new Habitat homes . In addition to the programs listed above, individuals and companies can donate land, money, physical time and home items. Save the date on June 8th for a great cocktail event. You will learn about Habitat for Humanity of Greater Miami’s work locally and have the opportunity to meet some of the individuals behind this program who are bringing about real transformation in our community.

Free Arts + Tech Summer Camps
Opa-locka Community Development Corporation (OLCDC) introduces the THRIVE INNOVATION DISTRICT with a vision that focuses on opportunities for community growth manifested through the arts + tech + health and wellness + innovation + creativity in downtown Opa-locka. The first initiative of the THRIVE INNOVATION DISTRICT is the Arts+Tech Summer Camps 2017 funded by The Children’s Trust. The camps are FREE and will offer students in Grades 4-12 an opportunity to explore interests and talents in the areas of Creative Writing, Music and Dance, Gaming, Web Design, Mobile Apps and 3-D Printing. These 6-week camps will take place from June 19, 2017 to July 28, 2017 at the THRIVE INNOVATION DISTRICT in Opa-locka. All programs are free, offer free breakfast and lunch to participants, and will run between 8:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Monday through Friday (exact times vary per camp). Creative Writing Camps will be facilitated by PageSlayers, a 2016 Knight Arts Challenge Winner, featuring writers of color in the areas of poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and short story writing. A Music and Dance Camp will be run by industry leaders, and will give students a firsthand experience in music production, recording, and movement. Tech-based camps will be conducted by the Florida Education Fund and feature lessons
on coding, app building, digital imaging and hands-on design. These summer camps will be the first of their kind in the City of Opa-locka and a signature event for the new THRIVE INNOVATION DISTRICT, whose motto is “Together, We Thrive.” Plans for the expansive THRIVE INNOVATION DISTRICT do not stop there. In addition to youth development programming, THRIVE will create and facilitate spaces for collaboration and engagement through the arts, technology, urban farming, coworking, and entrepreneurship. Opa-locka is off the beaten path and has been underestimated for its checkered past. That is exactly why OLCDC President and affordable real estate development expert, Dr. Willie Logan, knows Opa-locka is the perfect place for an innovation hub to flourish. OLCDC President & CEO Dr. Willie Logan comments on THRIVE: “We’ve created spaces where residents of all ages in Northwest Miami-Dade can make, create and innovate, starting with our Arts+Tech camps this summer.” Enrollment for the ARTS + TECH SUMMER CAMPS is now open for students in Grades 4-12, at www.olcdc.org or by calling (305) 687-3545.

INDIVIDUAL ENERGY HEALING SESSIONS WITH PAULA PETRY, PHD Dr. Paula Petry, PhD combines her life experiences with her formal training in energy medicine, education, psychology, and the healing arts to help individuals optimizes their health and well-being. She offers individual energy medicine sessions and workshops, as well as individual somatic therapy & coaching lessons to reduce stress, depression, anxiety and internal conflicts. In an initial energy medicine session, Dr. Petry first completes a standard intake process with you. This flows into a conversation about your expectations for the session(s) and in general what motivated you to seek assistance. Dr. Petry explains the general process, and you are given the opportunity to ask questions. Dr. Petry then begins an informal chat to help you identify the underlying emotional triggers that are diminishing your level of joyfulness and satisfaction with life. Early memories are identified that are connected to the emotional triggers. As your memories are activated, you identify where that emotion lives in the body, where you feel it, e.g., heart, stomach, head. If you have a generalized anxiety, you may feel it everywhere. The purpose of this process is to create an awareness of the emotional/ behavioral pattern and to activate the negative/heavy energy in the body so it can be released through the healing process. NOTE: During non-local healings which are conducted over the phone or Skype, you can be lying down or sitting in a chair, while Dr. Petry, applying the principles of quantum physics, clears your biofield. You will then lie in a supine position on a massage table and further relax by visualizing a healing energy entering your body with each breath. Dr. Petry calls upon her and your spirit guides. She begins to enter non-ordinary time which facilitates her ability to ‘see’ your biofield and remove non-beneficial energies. Through the power of intention and spiritual assistance, heavy energies are lifted from the body through the chakra portals. This part of the session can take from 20 to 60 minutes. Rhythmic sounds and scents help in the process. Generally speaking, anyone can benefit from energy medicine sessions. There Sessions are 1.5 to 2 hours in length. is no typical client.
