TRADITION — Since its estab-lishment in St. Lucie West a year ago, Exponential Church has defined its name. The church, which started with a small group of Christians from the outskirts of Washington, D.C., has rap-idly grown into a church that is changing lives every day in the community. Its exponent, or entity that promotes the church’s truth and growth, is God, the Rev. Christian Gaffney said. “We’ve got people that are really
experiencing some victory in their lives ... We’ve seen marriages re-stored, people overcoming addic-tion, a bunch of things like that, so it’s definitely been a wild ride,” said Gaffney, who credits God for working within church members’ lives. “We have no idea what’s going to happen next.” Exponential Church first began
holding small services in a confer-ence room at Tradition Field. From there it moved to the now-defunct Digital Domain Tradition Studios and currently meets every Sunday at Renaissance Charter School at Tradition. Spreading the good news is
more important than having a
permanent, free-standing venue, Gaffney said. “I’m fine with renting, but I do
want to grow. It’s not that I’m looking for a big crowd,” Gaffney said. “In Matthew 28, Jesus gave the ‘Great Commission.’ He said to go out and make disciples, so what you do is you have disciples making disciples.” “By definition, that is exponen-
tial growth and that’s where the name of our church comes from,” Gaffney said. “I want us to be a big church full of disciples, not necessarily a big crowd. If you ask me what the future of our church is, that’s what I’m praying hap-pens.” More than 80 attended the
church’s last service at Tradition Studios early last month. Gaff-ney leased several theater rooms from the city of Port St. Lucie for a small fee. “Everything at the studios was
a positive experience. I can’t say enough good things about the city,” Gaffney said. “They were what you would expect of public servants. They were extremely gracious and willing to work with us.” Renaissance school officials
have also been accommodating, Gaffney added. Its first service at the K-8 school last month drew a record-breaking 95. This year, the
church conducted 15 baptisms, a number Gaffney is proud of. “They’ve been really, really great
to work with. Everything is very clearly laid out,” he said. “They’re not very restrictive on us as long as we are also kind and very re-spectful of their stuff. It’s nice.” Sunday services are held in the
school’s cafeteria, which is mor-phed into the house of God using Exponential’s signature color,
orange. “When we go into a space, we
transform it to be our space ... Even though it’s a new building and there are some differences, it still feels like the same church,” Gaffney said. “We have our own color schemes and we have a cafe area that is set up for fellowship where we have bagels, coffee,

ST. LUCIE WEST — Thanks to the kind hearts of the more than 40 members of the St. Lucie West Garden Club, handicapped visi-tors at Tropical Ranch Botanical Gardens in Stuart will experience its lush lands like never before. The St. Lucie West Club pre-
sented Tropical Ranch with a second-hand wheelchair to keep in its lobby for visitors who may have a handicap or ailment which prevents them from walking the green gardens. Gardens owners Diane and Jim
Haines said the wheelchair will immediately be put to good use. “That will happen actually this
Tuesday. We have the Summer-field Garden Club coming for a program and a tour of the gar-dens,” Diane Haines said. “One of their members has a very hard time walking, but she just loves gardening.” The need for an in-house
wheelchair has been great, Haines added. “Usually every time that we do
have an open house here, there is somebody that has problems
walking around,” a gracious Haines said. “They’ll walk a little bit and we have plenty of resting areas, but the wheelchair is going to be used extremely well.” “Also, we have weddings out
here almost every Saturday and it is a nice advantage to have this for people so they don’t have to bring their own wheelchairs with them,” Haines said. “They can just wheel the person right back out to the wedding gazebo and get them seated.” The double-wide wheelchair
can accommodate any stature, St. Lucie West Garden Club president Uta McFadden said. It also has big, sturdy wheels for any ter-rain, as well as footrests. The club purchased the used wheelchair several months ago and have been searching for the perfect venue to donate it to, McFadden said. “We were so impressed with
their layout and the different possibilities to entertain different groups of people, especially all of these garden lovers that could use a wheelchair to get around,” McFadden said of Tropical Ranch. “It is lovely. It is so beautiful. It’s very private.” McFadden said her members
were thrilled to stumble upon the
Stuart gardens. “It is so rewarding ... It makes
us feel good to help other people who would not otherwise have had the chance to enjoy the garden as much as we do,” McFadden said. For more information on Tropical
Ranch Botanical Gardens, visit www.trbg.us or call (772) 283-5565. For more information on the St.
Lucie West Garden Club, call Uta McFadden at (772) 871-0830.

week’s editions of Your Voice News & Views and Veteran Voice are our one-year anniversary editions.There really is some truth to
the saying, “Time flies when you’re having fun ... and work-ing your tail off.”Fifty-two weeks ago we pub-
lished the first editions of our new direct-mailed, hyper-local community newspapers. After several months of planning, prepping, packaging, purchas-ing and persuading, it all came together. A few longtime associates,
(and dear friends) and a few new faces came together to try to accomplish what a lot of people were telling us was a waste of time and money. Not too many people that were “in the know” thought we could pull it off, and we knew of a few other individ-uals out there that sure didn’t want us to, either.Never one to be dissuaded by
naysayers, we knew that with the right team we could put together the right product that could be successful. In spite of all the talk about newspapers being a dying media and the death of print, we knew that if we brought it down to the hy-per-local level we could inform and entertain the readers. So far, it would appear, so
good.In my 30 years in the newspa-
per business we have been blessed to work and live in some of the most incredible places in the country. Southern Cali-fornia, Austin, Texas, Brecken-ridge, Colo., Central California, Pittsburg Pennsylvania and Florida, just to name a few. (We never want to leave Florida.) We have been a part of all kinds of newspapers from dailies, weeklies, bi-weeklies, start-ups, rebuilds, just about everything.Few, if any, have given us the
satisfaction of what this team has produced.The positive feedback we get on
a daily basis from readers and advertisers is incredible. That is what we, at Your Voice News, live for. We want to produce a newspaper that the readers find helpful, informative and pertinent. We want to produce
a newspaper that will introduce our advertising partners to their customers and drive these local business owners to success.We want to continue to support
the local nonprofits and char-ities so that they can continue to do the things they need to do that makes the Treasure Coast a great place to live. Of all the communities we have lived in over the years, I can honestly say that the Treasure Coast is one of the most giving we have ever experienced. We love being a part of these
communities. We love that you have taken our newspaper into your homes and into your lives. We will do more. We will be the publication you want and need us to be. We will continue to be your voice. Please let us know if there is
something special going on that we need to share with all of your neighbors. Let us know if there is something that you think we

ST. LUCIE WEST — After a month-long investigation, police have finally nabbed the two men responsible for a spree of graffiti vandalism in the city, including five cases in St. Lucie West.Port St. Lucie Police arrested
Timothy Michael Poff, 24, of St. Lucie West for painting the word “MALUM” on traffic control boxes, businesses, traffic signs and other structures, which were dis-covered on Sept. 5. Poff was first arrested Oct. 10 on outstanding warrants obtained by the Fort Pierce Police Department for 14 misdemeanor counts of criminal mischief. On Oct.14, Port St. Luc-ie Police obtained an additional 19 misdemeanor warrants for the graffiti damage Poff caused in the city of Port St. Lucie, police reported.
Since the first sightings of the graffiti, police discovered over 20 reported incidents of the word “MALUM” and “SEKE” being tagged throughout the middle and western part of Port St. Lucie. There were also multiple sightings of the same graffiti in Fort Pierce. Fort Pierce Police as-sisted in the investigation, Master Sgt. Frank Sabol of the Port St. Lucie Police Department said.
According to an arrest report, Poff, a server at Carrabba’s Ital-ian Grill in St. Lucie West, ad-mitted to his part in the rash of unsightly paintings and fingered Fort Pierce resident Sean Abel, 22, of Fort Pierce as the person responsible for tagging the word “SEKE.” Abel surrendered to au-thorities at the St. Lucie County Jail on Oct. 16.

was driving while he and friends were en route to school. Medina’s two surviving passengers and twin brothers Peter and a wheel-chair-bound Timothy Green, both 15, attended the memorial ser-vice.Medina, a catcher who umpired
Southwest Little League players during his free time, was cele-brated as a shining star on LPA’s Greyhounds team, who always encouraged fellow teammates to reach their full potential.Second baseman and LPA junior
Chris Mejias, 16, said the team has suffered a devastating blow.“It’s really sad. It just feels like
a piece of us is missing,” Mejias said.Shortly before the service began,
Medina’s mother, Madeline Medi-na, recalled the last conversation she had with her son.“(We said) ‘I’ll see you later,’
because we had stuff to do and ‘I love you,’” Madeline Medina said. “Always ‘I love you,’ no matter, if we were mad at each other, we always said ‘I love you.’”During the ceremony, family
friend, Tracie Crispino, read a letter written by Madeline Medina as Madeline and Medina’s father, Henry Medina, stood close by, embracing each other.“When I hear your name men-
tioned, I think of all the smiles
you have put on my face, as well as tears of joy I’ve shed. I still can’t believe you’re gone and wish it was a bad dream I could wake up from,” Crispino read.“Christian, you are a very special
son and you can’t imagine how lost I feel without you. I’m hon-ored to be your mother,” Crispino continued. “Yes, we’ve had our ups and downs as well as rough times, but in the end, you always said, ‘Sorry, Mom.’”Madeline Medina’s prepared
words struck a chord with weep-ing mourners, as she explained the searing pain she has experi-enced since the loss of her son.“I wake up every morning at 5
a.m. ready to wake you up and realize you’re not there,” Crispi-no read. “That’s when I ask God why. Why did you take my 16-year-old son who had so much to live for and so many goals to accomplish?” “Christian, I love you more than
words can say, and that void I feel will never go away.”During a poignant moment,
Coach Matt Walters comforted the crowd, reassuring them that Medina is in a safe and peaceful place. Medina’s No. 8 jersey was also retired during the ceremony.“He’s home now, standing
with our Lord in the kingdom of heaven. And because I know

Christian, I feel very comfortable speaking about what he would want to say to you all today,” Walters said. “First of all, because I know
Christian’s relationship with his mom was so special, I know if Christian was here right now he would want me to say this to you ‘… I love you, Mom.” “I know we didn’t have a ton
of time together, but eternity is going to be so much longer than our Earthly lives,” Walters said. “I’ve prepared a place for you. Don’t worry about it.”Medina would have also told his
teammates to keep their chins up, Walters said.“Second, to Christian’s team-
mates, I know Christian would want me to tell you, play the game like it’s your last, always be good teammates, be there for each other, stick together, have
fun, listen to your coaches and play hard,” he said.Standing behind a large por-
trait of Medina’s radiant smile by home plate, a place many described as Medina’s “favorite place in the world,” Walters said through death, Medina was able to save three lives. It was the teen’s wish to have his organs donated.Something miraculous also hap-
pened in the dark days following Medina’s death, Walters said.“I’ve seen the power of God the
greatest I’ve ever seen it. And that’s Christian’s legacy,” Walters said. “You see, God has worked through Christian to touch so many lives. Anyone who doesn’t believe that needs to look at what’s happened.” “The day after the accident, I
saw over 300 students praying at school. And when the bell rang to start school, they wouldn’t budge.”

Al Hickey filed campaign finance complaints against Faiella. Rath-er than contesting the issue, she paid a $5,000 fine.During her initial years as may-
or, Faiella was often embroiled in controversy. In July 2012, Faiella was publically censured by the council for sending per-sonal emails to a citizen in which she wanted to “set up” the city attorney and gather information against a former police captain. Faiella even voted to reprimand herself and admitted to her mis-takes.Earlier this year, Faiella and
fellow council members were the subject of a state attorney’s inves-tigation for possible Sunshine Law violations relating to the release
MAYOR from page A1 of city manager Greg Oravec in February. The investigation is still pending.Faiella said she has
learned several life les-sons while in office.“Don’t let the anger get
the best of you. I have made mistakes, but I’ve learned from them and refined myself in those mistakes. I know I had a hard time in the be-ginning,” Faiella said.The cornerstones
of her campaign for re-election will be eco-nomic development and education, Faiella said.“I get so many calls
every day about busi-nesses who want to come here, they want to meet the mayor, they want the mayor to take them to scout places out and (find the best location) for their company,” she said. “We’re forming a bigger partner-
ship with the (Economic Develop-ment Council) with better commu-nication and now hopefully soon we’ll have a city manager in place, not an interim city manager, but a city manager that, with council, can move forward with economic development.”Faiella said her genuine adora-
tion for her city also fueled her to run for a second term.
“I love the people. I love the community. I love Port St. Luc-ie,” Faiella said. “Despite all the controversy, it’s just a great city to live in.”Following her gut and doing what
she believes is right will get her through the campaign trail, Faiel-la said.“You’re never prepared for it
(campaigning) and you’re never mentally prepared for it, you just do the right thing and stick to your vision and what you believe is the right thing and your dedica-tion to the city of Port St. Lucie,” Faiella said.
Mitch Kloorfain/chief photographerMayor JoAnn Faiella presented a certificate congratulat-ing Lisa Bowman, Burlington Coat Factory store manag-er and her staff during their grand opening in St. Lucie West last month. Mayor Faiella announced this week that she will run for re-election next November.

JazzScat Corner
What a great time we’ve been having lately enjoying all the opportunities to enjoy music and dancing through the Fort Pierce Jazz & Blues Society. The Rowdy Micks fiddled their way into our hearts and made us all feel Irish, if only for a night, and we loved the dancing Irish lasses in their beautiful costumes. In addition to the great music, we’re so pleased to have this chance through Your Voice to help share some of the history of jazz and blues, so grab your coffee, and let’s share a little scat chat.
For newcomers to jazz
The roots of jazz can be traced to two major population shifts: European immigrants looking for a better life in the New World and Black Africans being transported to America to be sold into slavery. African musical elements
included group participation, connection with dancing, empha-sis on rhythm, call and response, and improvisation, the use of short repeated phrases called riffs.
European musical influences include the harmonic system, the system of notation, the type of instruments (cornet, trombone, saxophone, clarinet, bass and guitar). In addition, many songs were written based on European compositional form. A synthesis of these African
and European elements took place in America, most notably in New Orleans. But why New Orleans?New Orleans, although below

suited geographically to become a shipping center by virtue of the fact that it connects the Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico with the Mississippi river. Riverboats, therefore, could easily move people and goods northward to Middle America. These circum-stances attracted a multicultural demographic allowing for free exchange of musical ideas. There were French, Spanish, Creole, Caribbean and continental Euro-peans. African slaves could sing and dance at Congo Square on Sundays. Opera and brass bands were heard. There was an insa-tiable demand for dancing as it transcended language barriers morose than song did. The love of marching bands
and parades resulted in the enhanced development of brass bands, which soon became a standard component of many jazz funerals. The processions were subdued and reverent in the march toward the interment ceremony, but on the way out, the musicians just tore loose as they celebrated the life of the dear departed. As the parades pro-ceeded, they attracted a number of anonymous onlookers who followed and danced alongside the parade. They were referred to as “second-liners”. Next month, I’ll share a little bit
about the birth of the blues, and I
know you won’t be disappointed. Meanwhile, let’s plan to meet at the Black Box for Big Band Night, and then again on Nov. 10 for a special Jazz Brunch at Gator Trace Country Club.

on three counts of misdemeanor criminal mischief in Port St. Lucie and 24 of the same counts in Fort Pierce. Both men were charged with misdemeanors because the crimes were committed at varying times on different days and the damage at each location did not exceed $1,000, Sabol said.Poff, who had pictures of the
graffiti on his Instagram account, told Port St. Lucie Police he “enjoyed bombing” with Abel, the arrest report states. Poff said he knew his actions were wrong and that’s why he chose to spray the word “MALUM,” the Latin word for “wrong” throughout the city. The word “malum” is often de-fined as an evil or wrong. Abel tagged the word “SEKE.”
Sabol said they did not know
what “SEKE” meant.During a police interview, Poff
placed a monitored phone call to Abel, who admitted to tagging with Poff. Abel, who also posted pictures of the graffiti on Ins-tagram, asked Poff if he should delete his social media account.Areas in St. Lucie West hit with
the vandalism included walls near Superplay USA and Pane-ra Bread, a traffic control box at Peacock Boulevard and St. Lucie West Boulevard and a school bus at the College Preparatory Acade-my of the Treasure Coast.Sabol said tips from the public
helped catch the duo.“It’s very rare you finally iden-
tify who does the graffiti, unless you catch them in the act,” Sabol said. “Thanks to the public and good leads, we were able to catch these two.”
GRAFFITI from page A8
A school bus at the College Preparatory Academy of the Treasure
Coast, located in St. Lucie West, was vandalized in a rash of graffiti that
began on Sept. 5. The tagger sprayed the word ‘MALUM!’ on the bus’s front
tire with blue spray paint.

I never thought anything could be more exciting than the day we said, “I do.” But moving into our own home is right up there.
I was nervous at first. There was so much we didn’t know! Thankfully, we found a mortgage loan officer who specialized in helping first-time buyers. She walked us through every step of our financing from pre-qualification1 to closing.
When she said, “I think you’ll love beinga homeowner,” there was only one thingI could say: “I do too!”

Photo courtesy of the National Navy UDT-SEAL Museum Not all SEALs walk around on two legs. K-9s will be among other demonstrations that’ll be at the 28th annual Muster & Music Festival at the National Navy UDT-SEAL Museum.
Who knew? SEALs are party animals. “Things will be blown up, heli-
copters flying around and SEALs running around,” said Rick Kaiser, executive director of the National Navy UDT-SEAL Muse-um, Fort Pierce. The museum will have its 28th
annual Muster & Music Festival from Friday, Nov. 8 to Sunday, Nov. 10. Events open to the public will be on Saturday and Sunday. This year marks the 70th since the Naval Combat Demoli-tion Units started training at the beach by the museum.
“This year we’ll have 30 guys that trained for Normandy,” Kaiser said. He added, “They became Underwater Demolition Teams, UDT, which are the fore-fathers of the SEALs.”Kaiser said the muster and mu-
sic festival is a chance for folks to meet honest-to-God UDT frog-men and SEALs from all eras. He said they’ll come from all over to join in the fun. “Oh, gee, hundreds,” Kaiser
said. “I can’t give you a definite number, but there’ll be a couple hundred.” Best of all, most events are free
to the public. “The big day is Saturday the

9th,” Kaiser said. “We start things off with a 5k run and walk on the beaches where these guys trained back in World War II.”That’ll be at 7 a.m. A few hours
later, the boom boom begins. “At 11 (a.m.), we start in to our
demonstration,” Kaiser said. “We have a couple big-name guest speakers that’ll talk to the crowd.” Demonstrations by the Navy
Parachute Team, the Leap Frogs, along with the SEALs’ K-9s and snipers. There’ll also be an ene-my-apprehension demonstration. Among other notables that’ll be
on hand will be Adm. William McRaven, Congressman Patrick Murphy and former presidential candidate Ross Perot. There’ll also be two Medal of Honor recipients, lieutenants Michael Thorton and Thomas Norris. At 12:45 p.m., the museum
will dedicate its Medal of Honor statue. At 1 p.m., Uproot Hoo-tenanny will take the stage with its mix of Irish, bluegrass, folk, country and rock music. Those who aren’t museum members can catch the Killbillies, followed by the American Rogues for $3. That’ll start at 5 p.m. Museum members get into that show free. Folks are welcome to bring their
own blankets for those shows. On Sunday, there’ll be a 7 a.m.
sunrise service at the beach, followed by a ceremony at the museum’s Memorial Wall. Kaiser has a bit of advice: head
over early. “Last year we had 10,000 people
here on Saturday,” he said. “This year, we hope to have more.” The museum is at 3300 N.
Highway A1A, North Hutchinson Island, in Fort Pierce. It’s regu-larly opened from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesdays to Saturdays. On Sundays, it’s open from noon to 4 p.m. For more, visit navysealmuseum.

While attending the airshow in Vero Beach a few weekends ago, I sat with Mitch Kloorfain, a gift-ed photographer for Your Voice News & Views. I shared my dream of 20 years
to be in an F14 or plane that could perform such stunts, as we watched superstar Patty
Wagstaff soar and twirl in the sky. Mitch turned to me at that moment and asked if I wanted to ride in one at the Stuart Air Show. I quickly shot a look at him like he was pulling my leg; as I realized he was not, my heart raced with excitement. I had a chance of a lifetime and

there was no way I was going to say no. A week later, the day had ar-
rived. The sky was crystal clear, the sun was shining bright; it would be a beautiful day to fly. Time spun into a tight circle as I was strapped tightly into the parachute and then packed away in the high performance Air National Guard Extra 300L airplane. As the canopy closed, the
reality set in “this is going to be the time of your life.” The buzz of the propeller began and we were off. Soon I was airborne like a feather in the wind with Jeff Bo-erboon, a world champion stunt pilot, and Lt. Colonel John Klatt as his wingman, two world class air show performers. We were in perfect formation so close that had I been a wing walker, I could have jumped to the other plane. Fear crept in as I asked the question, “Do you always fly this close? Isn’t that dangerous?” Jeff Boerboon quickly respond-
ed in a matter-of-fact manner, “Yes, and there is no room for error. Are you ready for some fun?” John announced, “Clear to
roll” and we began climbing vertical and then backward and then falling toward the ground only to be thrown back again vertical and then backward for
what I believe two more times. In these moments, you feel your body switch from feeling weight-less to being pressed to the seat and immobilized by the crush-ing force of gravity. I was look-ing out the window to witness in disbelief the next stunt as John performs it first before we launch into our own – the “ham-merhead”– a maneuver where the airplane climbs vertically until it runs out of airspeed, Jeff then kicks the left rudder, pulls the throttle back to idle, which sounds like the engine has been switched to off and the nose piv-ots down as we plummet toward the earth.We leveled off, and then, to my
amazement, I was told to take the controls stick and pull back. This sealed the thought of this pilot truly being a brave soul. I was then instructed to move it to the left hard until we cleared 360 degrees. It was now time to go in. My mind and body were in shock of a dream come true, exhausted from the G’s and exhilarated by the experience of a lifetime.

doughnuts and all of that stuff. None of that’s changed. We just have a new place. It still feels like Exponential Church.” Food is key in fellowship, Gaff-
ney said. “We try to facilitate a place
where people can sit down and get to know each other, hence the food,” he said. “In fact, one of our core values is generosity and food. It’s something that always draws people together as a group.” The church’s winter season
will offer fellowship opportunities throughout the week for teens, men, women and children, Gaff-ney said. A typical Sunday service is filled
with love, laughter and most im-portantly, the word of God, Gaff-ney said. “It all goes back to our mission
statement, which is ‘Introduce people to Christ, so that they can introduce him to others.’ So with that, a goal we have is we want every person that comes to feel like they are valued and we really want them there,” Gaffney said. “We also want them to have an encounter with Christ. There’s definitely a spiritual element to all of this.” “Do I want people to come and
enjoy the service? Absolutely. And do I use humor when I preach? Absolutely. But what it all comes
down to is I want people to have an experience with Jesus,” Gaff-ney said. “All of the preaching is very biblically based. I don’t say anything unless it comes out of the Bible.” First-time visitors are usually
greeted in the parking lot, in-troduced to other attendees and given a tour of the service area and other rooms where children’s programs are held. They also are given a gift box, called an X-box, which contains a Bible, notebook and other items. “We want them to know that we
value them coming,” Gaffney said. “We want to be generous with every person that comes through our doors.” A priority for the church is
remaining in Tradition, Gaffney said. “The Tradition community has
so much going for it and one of the things that it doesn’t have that I would say is a perceived need, is that there are no churches,” Gaff-ney said. “There’s Living Faith, which I’ve gotten a chance to sit down with their pastor. They’re great and they’re working hard for the spiritual needs of the com-munity, but next to them and us, there are no churches actually in that community.” “We really want to work as hard
as we can to minister to the needs of not only Tradition, but Port St. Lucie at large.”

Students present excerpts from ‘Nutcracker’
FORT PIERCE — The dance stu-dents in the performing and visual arts department at Indian River State College get the holiday season off to a lively start with a program called “Just Dance.” It will be presented Nov. 21-23 at the McAlpin Fine Arts Center on the Fort Pierce campus. Molly Magee is assistant professor
of dance at IRSC. She said that the performance will offer both ballet and modern selections. “I like to give the students a chance
to perform in a classical ballet,” she said. “They will perform Variations from Act 2 of “The Nutcracker,” in-cluding the Spanish, Chinese, Rus-sian and Arabian dances. This year, a male and a female dancer will per-form a full-length pas de deux as the Sugar Plum Fairy and the Nutcracker Prince.” After the intermission, students
will perform modern dances choreo-graphed by Magee or by guest chorog-rapher Luke Kahlich, an old friend of

Magee’s from Texas Tech, where she began her dance studies. They also dance a scene from “Fiddler on the Roof.” “Everything in the second act
is modern, except for “Fiddler,” Magee said. “The department will be presenting ‘Fiddler on the Roof” in February and we’ll preview it with ‘Matchmaker, Matchmaker.’” It’s not at all unusual for
dance students to appear in shows put on by other part so of the department. “We try really hard to share
our students,” Magee said. “Ours might be in a play and theater students might be in a dance. Theater students are required to take dance.” The dance program is a two-
year program ending in an asso-ciate degree. Students can con-tinue on for a four-year degree, or go on a different career path with a life-long love of dance. They are required to have 36 general education credits. The dance classes are electives. The program offers modern
and ballet classes during the school year and jazz in the sum-mer. Students are also required to take beginning choreography and dance conditioning, which involves strength training.
“The students perform every semester,” Magee said. “The formal dance concert is this se-mester, so next semester, they’ll do a musical. There’s a recital in April where they dance a dance they’ve created in beginning choreography, or other students dance to another student’s cho-reography. They’re always busy dancing and rehearsing.” Magee said that the upcoming
program is ideal for people of any age. “I love it when young children
comes to see “The Nutcracker,” she said. “I want them to un-derstand there are other types of dance. We’re exposing them to everything from Mendels-sohn to pure percussion. It’s a well-rounded evening. That’s what I strive for.” “Just Dance!” will be presented
by Indian River State College’s dance students at Nov. 21-23 at the McAlpin Fine Arts Center, 3209 Virginia Ave., Fort Pierce. Performances are Nov. 21-23 at 7 p.m. and Nov. 23 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $10 for subscription holders and $15 for non-sub-scribers. For ticket information, call the
box office at (800) 220-9915. Information is also available for “Fiddler on the Roof’ and the student dance recital.

WQCS 88.9 FM selected to participate in emergency alert program for deaf, hard-of-hearing people
ST. LUCIE COUNTY — WQCS 88.9 FM is one of 25 NPR mem-ber stations that has been select-ed to participate in a pilot pro-gram to demonstrate the delivery of emergency alerts to people who are deaf or hard-of-hearing in the Gulf Coast states. The initiative is
a joint effort with NPR Labs, the technology research and devel-opment group of NPR, under a grant from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The pilot project represents the
first effort to deliver real-time, accessibility-targeted emergency messages, such as weather alerts, via radio broadcast texts. WQCS is one of 25 NPR Member sta-
tions, located in the Gulf States of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mis-sissippi and Texas, participating in the pilot with NPR Labs. Each station will transmit emergency alerts to deaf or hard-of-hearing volunteers in its listening area to gauge how effectively the messag-es are being sent and received. The participating NPR Mem-

PGA VILLAGE — When a golfer plays No. 18 at Baltusrol Golf Club in Springfield, N.J., he or she will often pause to reflect upon a special plaque that pays tribute to Jack Nick-laus’ famous 1-iron shot in the 1967 U.S. Open. In fact, for good luck, Phil Mickelson tapped the marker twice with his 3-wood as he played the 72nd hole of his thrilling victory in the 2005 PGA Championship. Meanwhile, Nicklaus’ 18 major
championships serve as inspira-tion for the individual hole mark-er signs that line Harbor Shores in Benton Harbor, Mich., site of the 2014 Senior PGA Champion-ship presented by KitchenAid. A stroll through the course is liter-ally a walk through golf history.
In similar fashion, PGA Golf Club at PGA Village in Port St. Lucie, Fla., is taking a page out of PGA of America history as it pays homage to PGA Championship and Ryder Cup lore with special new plaques that are designed to develop a link between its golfers and The PGA’s storied past.Eighteen eye-catching hole
markers featuring tributes that date back to Jim Barnes captur-ing the inaugural PGA Champion-ship in 1916, were installed along the Wanamaker Course in Octo-ber (the course was named after PGA of America founder Rodman Wanamaker, who donated the namesake Wanamaker Trophy awarded to the PGA Champion). The picturesque signs will al-
low golfers to learn about defining moments in PGA Championship history, including some that may have faded from memory. For example, in 1942, Sam

A new client recently came to us and hired us to file for tax years 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. The client anticipated owing about $50,000.
We prepared the delinquent tax returns and it turned out the cli-ent owed just a little over half that amount, including penalties and interest. By paying just few hundred dollars to get the unpaid liability to under $25,000 the client was able to qualify for the IRS Streamline Installment Agreement. Now the client is mak-ing monthly payments, is caught up with tax filings and sleeps at night!
Keep in mind, the longer you wait to file those old tax returns, the more penalty and interest you are going to pay. More importantly you want to file those delinquent tax returns before the Criminal Investigation Division comes knocking on your door looking for them.

Snead defeated Army Corp. Jim Turnesa 2 and 1, by holing a spectacular 60-foot chip shot for birdie on the 35th hole of the match-play finals at Seaview Country Club in Atlantic City, N.J. Afterwards, Snead signed a War Bond as part of his winnings in the shadow of the Wanamak-er Trophy, while surrounded by members of the U.S. Army and Navy. The following day, Snead reported for duty with the Navy in the midst of World War II. This story sets the scene for the tee box of hole No. 4 of the Wana-maker Course. Meanwhile, 18 special memo-
ries from the Ryder Cup tracing to Playing Captain Walter Ha-gen’s U.S. Team winning the first installment in 1927, will line the Ryder Course (which is named after Samuel Ryder). These mark-ers will recount timeless mo-ments, such as Justin Leonard’s remarkable 45-foot in the 1999 Ryder Cup. The stories are told in chronological order along the Ryder Course, withAmerica’s improbable rally re-
counted on hole No. 14. “There’s an allure to histo-
ry that is a passion unlike any other,” explains PGA Golf Club general manager Jimmy Terry.

“These historical hole markers are now part of the fabric of PGA Golf Club and serve as an attrac-tion for our guests and members to want to come back and experi-ence more. The hope is they leave with a greater understanding of the incredibly rich history of our Association, as well as with some chills down their spine.” Additional signs installed at
PGA Golf Club pay tribute to each PGA Champion by year; list the final score of every Ryder Cup; and tell the story of Rodman Wanamaker, Samuel Ryder and the trophies that bear their name.
Also, along the Dye Course are new markers that feature the signature of namesake Course Designer and World Golf Hall of Fame Member Pete Dye. “Jimmy Terry and his team
have a clear vision to tastefully educate golfers on each of their courses with story plaques as part of their tee sign packages,” said Michael Fryatt, executive vice president of the Prestwick Golf Group, a Wisconsin-based company that installed the signs. “It’s humbling being entrusted to help bring their vision to life.” A history lesson designed to
leave an indelible mark on PGA Golf Club visitors for years to come.

“We are thrilled to participate in this very important project to ensure that everyone in our broadcast area has equal access to emergency alerts and potential life-saving information in times of crisis,” said Madison Hodg-
es, WQCS manager. “One of the central missions of public radio is to serve and inform our audienc-es, and our participation in this project is just one example of how we are working to accomplish this goal.” “This is a crucial first step in
this very important project,” said Mike Starling, executive director, Technology Research Center and NPR Labs. “I want to sincerely thank WQCS for volunteering to participate in a project that will demonstrate that all indi-viduals, including those who are deaf or hard-of-hearing, can stay informed in emergencies when electricity, Internet and other
communications channels are unavailable.” In the demonstration project,
NPR will transmit emergency alert messages through the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Integrated Public Alerting Warn-ing System to the Public Radio Satellite System in Washington, D.C., using the Common Alerting Protocol. The PRSS network op-erations center will then transmit the warning to the participating 25 public radio stations via the Radio Broadcast Data System on a dedicated channel. The stations will broadcast
the emergency alert to specially designed radio receivers capable
of displaying text messages. Deaf or hard-of-hearing project volun-teers will be alerted to the mes-sage by a flashing indicator on those radios or a bed-shaker at-tached to and triggered by those radios to ensure the message is received day and night.
The Gulf State region was selected as the location for the new emergency alert system because it is frequently subjected to extreme and sudden weather conditions. Public radio stations, served by the PRSS, reach more

will be for NPR Labs to work with WQCS to assist in identifying individuals who are deaf or hard-of-hearing in the listening areas of the 25 participating stations. These volunteers will monitor the periodic messages on the project provided receivers, and be surveyed throughout the pilot program to determine how effec-tive the test messages are being received. WQCS 88.9 FM is the
state-designated Emergency Alert System station serving the Trea-sure Coast and providing im-portant weather and emergency information to the area. WQCS has been recognized for its long term commitment to news and hurricane coverage during peri-ods of emergencies. The Public Radio Satellite
