Boca Raton, Florida-August 28, 2017—When a motorcycle riding club outgrows allocated parking space, it’s simply a great sign that there’s a better location for the club.  Fury Road Riding Club (www.FuryRoadRC.com), the fastest growing motorcycle enthusiast riding club of men and women in South Florida officially announces their new bike nite home at Buffalo Wild Wings, 1219 S.

Fury Road R.C. makes appearances at charity and community events to offer awareness and bring some loud fun to all occasions.  Riders wear our signature t-shirts designed by Kala Sloan, Fury Road R.C. Director of Brand Development and Merchandising that are a sign of our mission.

“Every week a featured bike goes under our tent and we ask the rider to share a story about their bike or a ride they took with it and it really creates a nice bond with everyone,” said Adrienne Mazzone, President, TransMedia Group and Fury Road R.C. Director of Media Relations.  “We all make sure to greet each rider personally and introduce them to all new riders around so they feel comfortable and look to come back again and again,” added Mazzone.

Some of the rides Fury Road R.C. does brings some thunder to events, share images and help get extra exposure.  Our road Captain Michael will plan out rides after bike nite which is our famous tunnel run in Fort Lauderdale or head North up past Mar Largo and the beautiful ride up AIA, as well as many other destinations in which Graciano Drwila, Director of Operations and Sales for Fury Road R.C., will film with his go pro!  As riders get to know everyone, they’re added to our group chat where plans are made 7 days a week, rides planned and the Fury Road R.C. family continues to grow.

G-Star Plane on Cover of Smithsonian Magazine & in PB Post!


    The Palm Beach Post covered the delivery of a second historic warplane to the back lot of the G-Star Studios (www.gstarstudios.com) owned by the G-Star School of the Arts for Film, Animation and Performing Arts (www.gstarschool.org).  The article and photos are shown below.  However, this very same Grumman Mohawk OV-1 number 959 (serial number 15959) airplane was featured on the cover of the Smithsonian Air & Space Magazine in March 1997.  Built in 1967, our Mohawk was memorialized in the article titled “The Last of the Mohawks” by John Sotham with photography by Erik Hilderbrandt.  The number 959 is clearly visible on the nose of the Smithsonian Magazine plane and on the nose of our plane in the Palm Beach Post article.  Mohawk 959 was the last of its kind.  It flew it last mission over Korea and was retired after 29 years of operations “over some of the most hotly contested geography on the planet.  It was the only fixed wing aircraft ever built specifically for the U.S. Army since the Air Force became a separate service in 1947.”  The article goes on to say, “Because form followed function (for photographic and visual reconnaissance), the result was an airplane with a bulbous cockpit, slender fuselage, and odd triple-tail arrangement; it looked like a cross between a helicopter, an airplane, and an insect.”  Upon further research we found it was a highly classified secret mission plane with much of its history still blacked out.  We do know it operated the most sophisticated recon equipment of its time and that it’s missions are still secret today.
    We are very proud to have this magnificent historic Grumman Mohawk OV-1 plane now enshrined next to our other historic WWII Douglas C-47 Dakota Skytrain plane that flew in Normandy on D-Day 1944 on our G-Star Studios back lot where our G-Star students sit underneath their life-saving wings during lunch.

The Raymond F. Kravis Center Announces Four Schools Selected For Disney Musicals In School Programs

THE RAYMOND F. KRAVIS CENTER

FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS

ANNOUNCES

FOUR SCHOOLS SELECTED FOR DISNEY MUSICALS IN SCHOOLS PROGRAM

 

Palm Beach County Public Elementary Schools Will Produce a Disney Musical at No Cost

(West Palm Beach, FL): The Raymond F. Kravis Center for the Performing Arts is pleased to announce the four Palm Beach County public elementary schools that have been selected to participate in its 2017-18 Disney Musicals in Schools program. The program is an outreach initiative developed by Disney Theatrical Productions to create sustainable theater programs in under-resourced elementary schools. The four schools that were selected are Egret Lake Elementary in West Palm Beach, Forest Park Elementary in Boynton Beach, Glade View Elementary in Belle Glade, and Starlight Cove Elementary in Lantana.

The selected schools will participate in a 17-week musical theater residency, led by a team of teaching artists trained by the Kravis Center and Disney Theatrical Productions, at no cost to them. Each school will receive performance rights, education support materials and guidance from the teaching artists. The program features a professional development focus, through which participating school teachers partner with Kravis Center teaching artists to learn how to produce, direct, choreograph, and music direct, culminating in their first 30-minute Disney KIDS musical at their school.

As a capstone to the experience, the Kravis Center will host a Student Share Celebration, in which each school performs one number from its show in Dreyfoos Hall for an audience of students, teachers, family, and community members.

Using the unique world of musical theater, Disney Musicals in Schools helps to foster positive relationships between students, faculty, staff, parents, and the community.  Students and teachers work in teams, developing the wide spectrum of skills needed when producing a piece of musical theater, including: critical thinking, problem solving, ensemble building, communication, self-confidence, and interpersonal skills.

“As part of our ever-expanding arts education programming, The Kravis Center is excited to be announcing the first four local elementary schools to participate in our partnership with Disney Musicals in Schools,” said Judith A. Mitchell, CEO.  “We are honored to receive this generous grant from Disney, and we look forward to collaborating with educators to bring sustainable theater education programs to children in our community who might otherwise not have access to the performing arts.”

Disney Musicals in Schools was launched in 2010 in response to Disney Theatrical Production’s concern that under-resourced public elementary schools were not afforded equitable access to the arts. After successfully offering the program in New York City schools, Disney Theatrical Productions began partnering with organizations in other communities across the United States.

Disney KIDS musicals, created in partnership with Music Theater International (MTI), are 30-minute musicals designed for elementary school performers and have been adapted from the classic Disney films 101 Dalmatians, Aladdin, The Aristocats, Cinderella, The Jungle Book, The Lion King, and Winnie the Pooh.

September, 2017 – The Story of Joey’s Outback
Owners of Joey’s Outback Francesca Friedman, Michael Friedman and their son Joey

The Story of Joey’s Outback

Founders, Francesca and Michael Friedman have always loved children. Unfortunately, it wasn’t in the cards for the couple to have children when they married so late in life. Both come from families that value close family relationships. They realized that there are many children in need of a strong family life, and so they looked into several organizations that place children in need with good families in Florida.   They decided to become certified foster parents with Kids in Distress. Shortly after being licensed, they were called and told that a 13-month old boy needed immediate placement into a foster-to-adopt family. They agreed to foster him, and he immediately won their hearts. Six months later, in May of 2009, they were fortunate enough to adopt him.  Francesca and Michael now knew the joy of parenthood with their son, Joey!

During the next couple of years, he developed a very sociable, outgoing personality. He enjoyed his play time with his parents, but loved to be with other children as well.  The couple took Joey many places to play and learn; but never found anywhere that had everything in one place. . To spend as much time as possible with him during his formative years, they developed the concept of a children’s indoor play ground, party destination and café that would be fun for the whole family.

And so, Joey’s Outback Adventures was born! The 14,000-square foot center opened in February of 2012. The couple created a place where their son (and other children) could get plenty of physical exercise; gaining strength, balance and dexterity along with socialization. With inflatable bounce houses, mazes, obstacle courses, slides, tunnels, soft play, toddler area, kiddie rides, arcade/redemption games, birthday parties, field trips, special events and fundraisers along with a full service café serving up all of kid’s favorites, kids have a blast from the first minute to the last! At the same time, the couple wanted to  offer comfortable amenities for parents; a lounge with large screen tv’s,  comfy leather chairs, massage chairs,  and even some exercise equipment, Joey’s Oasis Café serving up sandwiches, salads and beer and wine!  There’s something for everyone at Joey’s Outback!

Joey’s Outback Adventures has become a favorite family destination, and has been crowned South Florida Parenting Magazines, Kid’s Crown Winner for several years now! Joey’s has provided tens of thousands of children with hours of fun and fitness, hosted thousands of birthday parties, donated to local schools and children’s organizations; bringing joy to all who walk through their doors and into their “family”!. 

They have now franchised Joey’s Outback Adventures and are proud to announce that their first franchise is carrying on the tradition of a family owned business in Jensen Beach, FL.  They opened their beautiful 13,000 sq. foot facility on February 4, 2017, just 5 years and 1 day after the initial Joey’s Outback opened in Wellington! The families of the Sojo’s and Pedraza’s are teachers; who better to know the needs and  desires of children and parents!
