Students and faculty in the Parkway and Rockwood School Districts raised more than $13,800 for Friends of Kids with Cancer during the 2013-2014 school year by hosting Hats on Day fundraisers! These wonderful districts are yet again among the list of top districts and schools participating in Hats on Days during the 2014-2015 school year to help celebrate the 20th year of this ‘cap-tivating’ fundraiser. Dr. Seuss Hats, baseball caps, safari hats and more, schools from all across the greater St. Louis-area are able to participate in a Hats on Day by simply designating a day when students
and faculty make a suggested donation and are then allowed to wear a hat to school that day! Hats on Day is a popular fundraiser but little do people know this program has its roots from a Parkway school.

These students thought a fundraiser like “Hats on Day” was a fantastic way to show their support for their friend.

His classmates decided to continue promoting Hats on Day opportunities in memory of their friend. Friends of Kids with Cancer is honored to receive the proceeds of Hats on Days fundraisers to continue providing the Educational,

The course which starts and finishes in Frontier Park in historic St. Charles, takes runners along the banks of the Missouri River and through picturesque neighborhoods. Unique to MO’ Cowbell is the “High-Five Zone.” Ideally placed at Mile 5, participants run through Hermans Farm Orchard where they are cheered on by hundreds of spectators and volunteers ringing cowbells and of course, giving lots of high-fives!
MO’ Cowbell participants sure do get MO’ for their registration: a long-sleeved technical shirt, car sticker, sports bag, course entertainment, water and aid stations, a firstclass finisher’s medal and of course the commemorative cowbell!

Wings of Hope has made it possible for them to get the medical care needed to move forward with their lives. Melissa had to have part of her right leg amputated due to complications following heart failure while playing volleyball with friends. Justin was born without three appendages, both arms and a leg.Their honest portrayal of their situation, along with the gratitude both expressed for the help they’ve gotten, and their ‘never give up’ attitudes made this truly the most poignant part of the evening. The evening concluded with music and dancing to the sounds of The Fabulous Motown Revue. It was a great celebration of a very successful year for the MAT program at Wings of Hope.We are extremely grateful to our generous donors, supporters and volunteers who make it possible for us to continue this important work.Thank you everyone!

BACK COVER FEATURE SealMaxxPlus offers customers the opportunity to never seal their wood or concrete surfaces again. SealMaxxPlus is a service applied process of cleaning and sealing wood and concrete internally. The process is two days with a day in the middle for drying purposes. The initial application of sealant is applied following a deep cleaning of the wood or concrete. The cleaning removes all previous oil based stains that may have been applied. While wet the wood/concrete sealant is applied and carried into the substrate by the rinse water. After drying for 24 hours the wood may be lightly sanded prior to the application of the moisture barrier sealant. This silicone based product seals the wood and concrete for several years to come. The wood sealant can contain a cedartone stain to give the wood a very natural cedar finish. Concrete sealant, for the most part, is applied as a clear product.
SealMaxxPlus Never Seal Your Deck or Concrete Again!
Visit www.sealmaxxplus.com for additional information concerning either process. You may request a no obligation, no cost consultation from the web site or by calling 636.294.6299. SealMaxxPlus is an A rated Accredited Business by the BBB and a proud member of the Home Builders Association of Eastern Missouri.
SealMaxxPlus offering you the finest quality products available, with the highest degree of customer service possible, at a fair and reasonable price.

Fun With Your Special Pet Dog Park Etiquette 1 Respect everyone’s space. Don’t crowd and rush incoming guests 2 Clean up after your pet 3 Keep the play fun-not too rough 4 Don’t let Fido jump on other dogs or people 5 Don’t bring or use treats around other dogs 6 If your dog isn’t having fun, be prepared to leave
Dog Parks In Our Area Due to popular demand, dog parks are becoming an essential service to many municipalities. Why? Dog parks allow space for your four-legged family members to romp and play and socialize without being tethered to a leash. Dog parks provide a place for dogs to run
that otherwise would not be able to run free, and a place for dogs to play with other dogs. Each park is funded through an annual membership fee and requires all pets to be spayed or neutered plus have rabies and bortadella vaccinations. Check your local dog park for individual requirements and regulations.

his is one of Amy Ruck’s recipes that the Ruck & Lamers families (owners of PM BBQ) use for any leftover chicken that they have. It would also be great with a pound of freshly pulled chicken from PM BBQ. This recipe can be made with smoked turkey as well. The panini can be made ahead of time and served at room temperature for a picnic or at the lake. If a panini is not available, this can be made by grilling the sandwich in an oiled skillet, with another skillet or a brick wrapped in foil on top to weigh the bread down and fuse the flavors together. PM BBQ is located in Chesterfield Valley at 103 Chesterfield Towne Centre. 636-536-1966 www.pmbbq.com. It is locally owned and operated by Paul Lamers & Mark Ruck. They have won numerous awards for best BBQ in town. Try it out soon for some delicious real hickory smoked BBQ. They offer dine in, carry out and catering services.

RESTAURANT
FEATURE
Walnut Grill By Pat Catanzaro, Publisher Cedar Plank Salmon
Kirk and Eric Vogel, Owners of Walnut Grill
W
alnut Grill is a welcome surprise to the West County area. It offers delicious American cuisine with a diverse, chef-driven menu and a modern, inviting atmosphere. It is the perfect destination to bring a date, the family, or come with friends. Walnut Grill has delicious food, energetic service, upscale ambiance designed to please every diner. The restaurant is owned by the Vogel brothers, Eric and Kirk and the concept was developed by Kirk in PA which has four restaurants. The Ellisville location is the only one in St. Louis. The restaurant creates two different experiences. The comfortable, large bar area with lots of flat screen TV’s has a completely different feel than the restaurant. The dining room has lots of separate areas- a combination concept-with each space having its own lighting, music and design. Its like two restaurants in one. The cuisine is creative with signature dishes such as the Apricot-glazed Cedar Plank Salmon, Parmesan encrusted chicken and gnocchi, Thai pork mac ‘n cheese, a Black Angus charbroiled filet and Surf-n-turf. There are more than 17 entrees ranging from pastas, to a mixed grill- steak, tuna and salmon combo, to chicken spiedini. Walnut Grill
