Chief to Chief – Community Service via Kiwanis of Palm Beach

Kiwanis Club of Palm Beach announces the induction of new member Palm Beach Police Chief Kirk Blouin on Tuesday, July 21 at 12:00 noon. Officiated by most recent Chief Michael Reiter, the event takes place during a luncheon at The Breakers.  Fellow Palm Beach Kiwanian Michael Reiter will share the baton with new member Chief Kirk Blouin in acknowledgement of their combined mutual efforts serving the community’s children as Priority One.  Chief Blouin will now preside over the club’s Palm Beach Police Department Officer of the Quarter and Officer of the Year program that acknowledges the vital efforts of these courageous people.

Reiter’s Kiwanis Club is especially unique in its many accomplishments.  In 2008, Palm Beach members provided the second of two fully-equipped immunization vans for the Palm Beach County Health Department to deliver immediate and on-going vaccinations, health and medical  care directly to children and families in the western communities.  Committee Chair Steven Trezise reports these healthcare efforts achieved immunizing more than 92% of all western community children, thus preventing the potential incurrence and spread of life-threatening diseases.

In 2009, Michael Reiter, along with Stuart Shulman spearheaded Palm Beach Kiwanis efforts providing thousands of gallons of Benjamin Moore paint for a juvenile facility.  2009 services also include members Alice Hodach (400, Inc.), Pam Leikala (Regent Bank) and Nick Abiusi’s (Publix Supermarkets) providing meals for Quantum House families temporarily housed during medical treatment for their children at St. Mary’s Medical Center.  Tracy Sherman (CIRCA) chaired the singular annual Palm Beach Kiwanis Golf Classic at The Breakers netting college scholarships for local children.  Student of the Month and Year programs, chaired by Edward Crawford, provided educational awards and funds for Palm Beach elementary students.  President Eric Raith oversees the coveted array of accomplished prestigious speakers, including such as artist Romero Britto scheduled in October.  Member Charles Smith highly esteems Palm Beach’s Kiwanis Club as Lt. Governor of the Florida District, Division 20.

Connecting the words “Palm Beach” and “Kiwanis” understandably catches the attention of top corporations; famous individuals known for making a difference are also attracted.  The importance of serving children netted Gertrude Maxwell to Kiwanis membership; Mrs. Maxwell is the founder of Save-a-Pet and emphasizes the value of protecting all life. Mr. and Mrs. Victor and Barbara Brizel relocated from their New York Kiwanis Club, where Victor had presided as president, to the Kiwanis Club of Palm Beach to serve where it matters most.  As did Judge Henry Logan.

Palm Beach’s club boasts four members who have earned Kiwanis International Foundation’s George F. Hixson Fellow Awards:  Dr. David Haughton, Larry Ochstein, Gerald Shugar and Frank Wright. Palm Beach Kiwanis Club breaks barriers, including this club’s election of three female presidents within the past 9 years, including Pamela Stark Thomas, Susan Heeke and Nancy Maio (Lydian Bank).

For information on how to participate in the Palm Beach Kiwanis Club and the membership induction of Police Chief Kirk Blouin, call president Eric Raith at 667-2031.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – July 12, 2009

A letter from Producer Gregory Hauptner to the cast & crew of this summer’s G-Star feature film [in West Palm Beach] It’s a Dog Gone Tale: Destiny’s Stand: 

To the Destiny’s Stand Cast & Crew;

I would like to thank you all for your excellent work performed on our film.  When I say “our film” I mean “your” film.  You did it.  It could not have happened without you.  There were many seasoned film veterans on set during the shoot in addition to the Palm Beach community members who stepped in to participate, thanks to their confidence in and support of you. 

The following film industry-related professionals shared rave reviews on how well the set was run and how well you performed your jobs: Barry Bostwick (The Hannah Montana: The Movie, Spin City), Ron Palillo (The Guardians, Welcome Back Kotter), Ruth Paul from SAG, Academy Award winner Dean Lyon (Lord of the Rings trilogy, Armageddon, Independence Day, Air Force One), Academy Award winner Beau Rogers (Gods and Monsters), Hollywood Props Master Art Shippee (The Sixth Sense, Disturbia, Without a Paddle, Pretty in Pink) and Susan Jackson from American Humane Film & TV Unit [who flew directly from monitoring the set of the $250 million remake of Ben Hur in Morocco to our G-Star set].  These people are credited for their involvement in some of Hollywood’s biggest films ever made and know what a true movie set is like. 

Star Barry Bostwick had this to say about the film in an email to the Producer.  “Greg [Hauptner], the photos look great and its obvious that everyone enjoyed a great time…but, nobody more so than me…keep me posted with updates and gossip…thanks for everything you did to make my short stay so memorable and comfortable…Barry”

Every movie has obstacles to overcome, especially during the shoot’s first week.  As Producer Joe Reilly said, “True professionalism shows itself when dealing with obstacles and making it work, not when everything is simply going smoothly.”

You, the G-Star cast & crew of Destiny’s Stand, persevered and excelled at your jobs. I am very proud of each of you.  You have worked on a SAG union film.  You have now earned your stalwart reputation as true professionals in the film industry.  You also earned a Destiny’s Stand T-shirt. Each of you who continued your responsibilities through to the very end of this production will find your names in the credits of this film and on IMDB.com.  Thank you for your hard work and your continued faith in both G-Star and Destiny’s Stand.  Somewhere down the road, you will take pride in knowing that you were in the first film to start a true film industry here in Palm Beach County.  Congratulations!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 Announcing the Western Executives’ 1st “SALAD DAYS”

A Delicious Experience of Healthy Eating and Celebrating a Greener Planet

The “Western Executives” is a social club for business owners primarily in the Western communities of Palm Beach County.

Troy Webster, the founder of the Western Executives, saw an opportunity to help raise money for a local farm worker’s charity by organizing the first “SALAD DAYS” special event, to be held at the  International Polo Club in Wellington, on Saturday, August 1st, 2009.

The event starts at 1:00 pm and ends at 6:00 pm. Tickets are $10.00 in advance (available online) or $15.00 at the door. Vendor applications can be emailed to [email protected].

Residents of the Western Communities are being called to participate and come together in order to support this meaningful fundraising event.

Webster says that the International Polo Club is a perfect place to showcase such a feast for the senses, and he feels that people will support the idea of helping farm worker’s kids with school supplies, while enjoying an afternoon of healthy food and entertainment.

Visitors may bring crayons, pencils, backpacks, calculators and other school supplies for chances to win fabulous prizes.

There will be plenty of food sampling, “Best Salad” competition, demonstration by the local home brewers club, business expo/fair, raffle and silent auction.

The Western Executives volunteer their time and do not get compensation as all profit goes directly to the Farmworker Council, a non-profit local charity.

 For more information, call Ingrid at (561) 793 5509.
