A dreamLake Media Publication

Scott McElhaneyPresident and CEO

It’s That Time of YearWelcome to autumn in the 919:

Football, the State Fair, Bluegrass, walks, races, black tie galas and events galore.

We love doing what we do and we enjoy hearing from our readers. Delivering information to you about your friends and neighbors is what we enjoy most (oh, and did I mention football?).

In each issue of 919 Magazine, readers learn about local residents who volunteer their time and efforts to assist others and raise money for various causes. We are very proud to recognize these individuals – and, of course, highlight the organizations they support.

Giving back is a part of our charter, and engrained in our business philosophy. That’s why we are sponsoring two exciting community events this fall:

• For the second straight year, 919 Magazine is supporting the Triangle Signature Chef’s Auction to benefit the March of Dimes and it’s work to help premature infants. It’s Nov. 2, and you can read details on Pages 52-53.

• And, new this year, 919 Magazine is a major supporter of the Wide Open Bluegrass Streetfest event Oct. 3-4 in Raleigh. Specifically, we are sponsoring the Youth Stage at this fun-filled festival expected to bring thousands of visitors and their dollars to our community. The full story on this outstanding annual event is on Pages 32-33.

We have a lot inside this expanded issue, including a wonderful article on Carl Faison Sr., a Wake Forest resident who volunteers to make sure local residents have a decent place to live (Page 14), and an enlightening piece on local teacher Allison Reid – who made a splendid return to the classroom after a 10-year absence.

Did you miss 919 Magazine last month? No, your mail carrier is not to blame – we were simply gearing up for all the exciting changes taking place here at 919 headquarters: A fresh new look, more pages, more stories, two new Superzones (North Raleigh and the Super W) – plus a comprehensive expansion in new distribution that now includes many local supermarkets throughout Wake County.

Why did we do this? Because our #1 goal is to give local residents a magazine they truly enjoy reading, share the stories that matter to you most, and provide the flexibility to pick up 919 Magazine wherever your travels take you.

Happy fall – see you all again in December!

Sincerely,

SB Sarver

A world where everyone has a decent place to live.

Carl Faison Sr. shares that vision with Habitat for Humanity – and through his volunteer efforts with the organization, he’s actually helping make it happen.

“I was introduced to Habitat for Humanity through my church, Friendship Chapel Missionary Baptist, and I have been involved since 2012, said Faison, a native of Florence, SC, who moved to Wake Forest in 1999. “I enjoy giving back to the community and the fellowship with others similarly involved.”

Habitat for Humanity of Wake County builds safe, affordable houses for qualified homebuyers, regardless of race, religion or background. All Habitat homes are built in partnership with homeowner families, sponsors, and volunteers – and are sold for no profit to the partner family, who repays an affordable mortgage over 20 years. The organization has several programs in addition to home construction, including Brush with Kindness, and Faison is involved in both.

“Through the Brush with Kindness program, we do several home improvement activities for homeowners who can’t afford the cost involved, including painting, minor repairs, and landscaping enhancement,” Faison said.

“The team members vary from site to site, but we try to average about 15-20 volunteers.”

Faison – a married father of two – graduated with a degree in Business Administration at North Carolina Central University in 1984 and worked in the warehouse and distribution industry for 27 years. He now owns C&L Sales Consultants LLC, which specializes in facility maintenance, power washing, janitorial services, and other general contracting services.

A church Deacon, he also participates in the Male Choir, the Gospel Choir, and the Male Praise Team. In

A Splendid Return to the ClassroomHeritage Teacher Wins HugeHonor After 10-Year Absence By HANNAH TOWNSEND

919 Magazine Writer

“To say my hometown district was not transient is an understatement,” said Allison Reid, a Statesville, NC, native. “I grew up in a pretty small, rural town – the kind of town where kids graduated with the same people they began kindergarten with.”

But Reid is now part of the state’s largest school system, and as an English teacher at Heritage High School in Wake Forest – she became Wake County Public School System’s 2014 Teacher of the Year.

“It is a great honor to be selected as the WCPSS Teacher of the Year, and I am grateful for the recognition,” Reid said.

“I am but one of the thousands of teachers in this county who does my job well; there are so many others who serve our students well who I wish could be recognized in this way.”

Reid returned to teaching in 2011 after a 10-year break when the first of her three children was born. “During my hiatus from the classroom, I ran a design business and, though I loved it, realized over time that the classroom was where I was meant to be,” she said.

She also found herself constantly in a teaching role, even in her business – often writing and publishing how-to articles and even teaching at national industry conferences. “One of the topics I was asked to teach repeatedly was a course on incorporating technology,” she noted. “It seems I could not run from teaching.”

Reid recently received her Masters of Instructional Technology from North Carolina State University, and is part of Heritage’s newest program: The Gaming Arts & Design Academy that is a more project-based learning model that, among other things, focuses on “soft skills” such as presenting, interviewing, professional writing and collaboration.

“The rewards of my teaching relationships are what brought me back after a 10-year break from the classroom,” Reid said. “I still have relationships with students I taught in 1996, and they still want me to be proud of them – and I am.”

Reid noted that she’s been a part of many of her students’ struggles and successes, and the impact she gets to have on those students’ lives is what really brought her back to the classroom. “The best thing about my job is that I get to build relationships with students and colleagues that last beyond the semester,” she said.

Lifestyle Decision Brings DuttonsTo Their New Wake Forest Home

By HANNAH TOWNSEND919 Magazine Writer

Moving from Northern Virginia to North Carolina four years ago was a lifestyle decision for Bracy and Bridget Dutton.

“[Bridget] had a long commute back and forth to work, and with rising house prices and the cost of living, we thought it was advantageous for us to move, and we wanted to be somewhere more family-oriented,” said Bracy, an Account Executive at Blackboard Inc., an education software development company.

And they have no regrets, especially since the arrival of 2-year-old son, Ethan.

The couple met in 1998 while studying at the Salisbury State University library in Maryland, where they both received their undergraduate degrees. In September, they celebrate their 10th anniversary.

A year ago, they moved to a new home in the Drayton Reserve, primarily for the family-friendly environment and quiet streets the community provides. “Knowing that we are raising our son in such a wonderful environment that is family-focused and has such a high quality of life is the most fulfilling,” Bracy said.

Bridget, a Community Outreach and Resource Planning Specialist for the U.S. Department of Labor Wage and Hour Division, loves to travel and dine out when she can with Bracy – and Ethan is now enrolled in the Early Preschool I class at Primrose School of Heritage Wake Forest.

“He’s counting and learning shapes and colors, but according to his parents, can name any animal you show him,” Bracy said. “His favorites are lions, lemurs and monkeys, but he’s also interested in learning about insects, especially spiders.”

Around the house, Bracy said the family enjoys grilling out, watches movies and

Whitco Termite And Pest Control’sWell-Trained Professionals RespondQuickly, Resolve Issues Big and Small

For the past 25 years, Mark Harrison has provided general pest control services and wood-destroying insect services for both residential homes and commercial buildings with Whitco Termite and Pest Control.

“We opened in 1989 originally, and started out with one employee (which was me), with one office at the Henderson location, and we’ve since grown to nine employees with three offices – including one in Wake Forest, which opened in 1995 – and we now cover seven counties,” Harrison said.

With 15 years experience in pest control services, Harrison’s son, Josh, serves as Whitco Vice President and manages the Wake Forest office at 2010 S. Main St., exemplifying how the family-owned business operates. “I think it’s unique that Josh is a licensed pest control operator, and most of the time when someone calls the Wake Forest location – he is the one who handles the service call,” Harrison said. “When you call Whitco, you’re getting a fully licensed professional with 15 years experience, who grew up in the business, coming out to your house.”

And all of Whitco’s service professionals are trained in using the best techniques.

“We take a personal interest in our clients,” Harrison explained. “We not only provide the service you need, we also provide personal advice and consultation. As our client, you can expect our people to look at your problem as their own.”

According to Harrison, everyone in pest control uses the same chemicals, but Whitco differs by having a team of long-term employees (most working with the company for more than 15 years) who are well-trained and experienced.

“In addition, our response time is impeccable; we either get there that day – at the most the next day – but never more than 24 hours,” he noted.

Whitco can handle any size problem and resolve all issues for homeowners, such as termites, roaches, fleas, mice, rats, bed bugs and other pests – on contract or a one-time basis. Plus, Whitco’s professionals can handle closed crawlspaces and provide other moisture control services; pretreat sites for building contractors; promptly complete inspections and treatments related to real estate transactions; and respond to emergencies within hours. Licensed and insured, Whitco always provides free inspections and estimates.

“For years we have earned the trust of homeowners, restaurants, motels, medical facilities, and retail stores,” Harrison said. “We are prepared to handle any size facility and are always competitively priced.”

Hearing Healthcare on a Personal LevelWake Audiology & Hearing Aid Associates OffersA Relaxed Environment and Comprehensive Care

Dr. Catherine Marquis wanted to open a practice that provided hearing care for patients on a more personal level – where she could get to know her patients and their specific concerns in a relaxed environment.

An Audiologist, she opened Wake Audiology & Hearing Aid Associates in Wake Forest in 2005 after working in ENT (Ears, Nose and Throat) physician offices for 22 years. “We understand the impact hearing loss has on our patients and their families,” Dr. Marquis said. “It affects them emotionally and often creates tension in those relationships.”

Today Dr. Marquis and her staff offer realistic expectations for how much assistance a hearing aid can provide, as well as long-term hearing healthcare on a more personal level. “Our personal service and attention to detail are what set us apart,” she stressed. “We want patients to know we appreciate them and that they are in good hands with us.”

Wake Audiology offers not only hearing aids, but total hearing healthcare – working closely with area physicians to not only treat hearing issues, but to maintain the health of their patients’ ears.

Being an independent practice, Wake Audiology has the ability to work with most hearing aid manufacturers to give patients the best possible solution, “no matter how simple or complex their lifestyle may be.”

“We want our patients to enjoy the best possible hearing throughout their lifetime,” Dr. Marquis said. “We teach them how to protect their hearing, and we look at diet and lifestyle factors that may affect their hearing.”

Dr. Marquis said that patient education is important to the success of any solution. She said that along with providing treatment for hearing loss, she and her staff provide strategies to improve communication to both patients and their families. “Patients come to us looking to improve their quality of life,” she explained. “They’re not hearing confidently at work, home and in social situations and they may be feeling embarrassed, isolated, frustrated and even depressed.”

Hearing loss, according to Dr. Marquis, is typically more complex to treat because hearing losses are “nerve” losses. “We help patients and families understand that verbal communication is a very complex process, with the ear as the starting point, sending information along the central pathway through the brainstem and into the brain for processing,” said Dr. Marquis, who received her BA in Speech and Hearing Science and MA in Audiology at Louisiana State University, and her Doctor of Audiology degree from University of Florida.

Wake Audiology’s services include tinnitus (the condition that causes a ringing or roaring sensation) evaluations and its treatment options; hearing protection for all activities; and comprehensive hearing evaluations – as well as hearing aids in a wide range of technologies and prices. Patient financial assistance is also

available through local agencies and Care Credit.

It was a day fun, food, music and fireworks in July at Wake Forest High School, as Emcee Jim Dyer took the crowd filling the stadium through the day’s program — including music by Apples & Airplane Band, the Friendship Chapel Choir and headliner, Band of Oz. Wake Forest Mayor Vivian Jones welcomed everyone to the celebration, and SEBTS President Daniel Akin gave the invocation. Sgt. Jack Arguilez of the U.S. Army Reserve led the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by the singing of the National Anthem by Kaitlin Weddle.

The annual event was planned and executed by the Wake Forest Fourth of July Committee, led by President Rhonda Alderman. Others on the committee include Chris Burke, Bonnie Johnson, Bob Allen, Jill Bright, Bill Brown, Stella Daniska, Debbi and Dennis Dart, Jim Dyer, Carolyn Furr, Greg Harrington, Al Hinton, Kim McLean, Tammy Merritt, Rob and Meaghan Mitchell, Louis Mullinger, Brian Pate, Hank Pierwola, Heather Steele, Gretchen Wilkinson, Denise Williams and Scott Yates.

The committee thanked the many sponsors who supported the program, and dedicated the celebration to the memory of Dorothy “Dot” Hinton, a longtime volunteer who passed away in 2014.

A Conversation with Jason McGeorge, Head Football Coach at Heritage High School:

What aspect of last year’s season are you building on this year?

All aspects. We are still in the process of building leadership from our seniors. This is our second senior class and they are very dedicated to the program. We will continue to work on securing the ball on offense and forcing turnovers on defense.

What is the team’s biggest challenge going into this season?

Our biggest challenge is replacing some very talented seniors from last season’s team. Also, our offensive and defensive line must fill some holes and play very physical.

What are the team’s strengths this year?We have a number of perimeter players who can make plays.

Also, our center (Matt Donovan) and quarterback (Blake Walters) will be returning and they have started for four years on Varsity.

Do you have a specific approach to push the team to the next level?

Keep their confidence high.

They can assist the team by showing support and coming to the games.

Rolesville Opens Varsity EffortCoach Evans Hoping to BuildOn Last Year’s JV Experience

Fielding a Rolesville High team at the Varsity level for the first time, Head Football Coach Jermaine Evans is taking the Rams on a huge journey this fall to compete in the Greater Neuse River Conference. Looking to build on last year’s 4-6 Junior Varisty effort, Evans knows he faces a challenge each week – but expects the team can gain confidence as the season progresses.

A Conversation with Jermaine Evans, Head Football Coach at Rolesville Road High School:


We are looking forward to building upon last year and the success we had on Junior Varsity. As a first year program, we were able to gain some confidence and we are looking to take that confidence into the Varsity football season.


Just the simple challenge of competing on the Varsity level. It is a huge step, especially in our conference. We will be challenged week in and week out!

What are the team’s strengths this year?Our strength is in the skill positions. I feel

like we have some players on the perimeter on offense and defense who will help us compete.


We had to make a commitment to the weight room to get bigger, faster and stronger. We are not where we need to be, but we are a lot further along than we were last year at this time.

Who are you expecting to lead the team this year?

We have a group of young guys that we are hoping will lead this year. We don’t have a leader that has stepped up as of yet; however, we expect our older guys to take a lead.

What players are you counting on this year?Colby Cooper, Dan Noblin, EJ Hicks,

Greg Bargeman, and Justice Jones.

How and why did you get into coaching?I got into coaching after playing four years at

Elon University. I loved the game and wanted to continue to be involved with football. There is no greater joy than to coach high school players, and see them succeed on and off the field.


Come out and support!

Focused on a ChampionshipWake Forest’s Coach RemainsConsistent On Goal: Win It All

Wake Forest High School Head Coach Reggie Lucas’s top goal for this year hasn’t changed from his previous seasons with the Cougars: Win the state championship. Last year, the team came as close as possible without taking the trophy, losing in the championship game. Focused on a better defense, the team also returns playmakers Bryce Love (running back) and Mack Moore (quarterback).

A Conversation with Reggie Lucas, Head Football Coach at Wake Forest High School:


Every year, we have the same goals: Win the state championship, make the state playoffs, and win the conference championship. This year, we will be focusing on better defense. We would like to hold our opponents on 14 points a game; and on offense, we want to score over 21 points a game, and we don’t want to turn the ball over. So in all, these are a few of the key points that we’d like to maintain every game.


The biggest challenge for the team is having depth. We feel pretty good about our first group, but our numbers are low on the varsity and we don’t have depth at every position.

What are the team’s strengths this year?On offense: At the skill position, we have a lot of experience

coming back, including the quarterback and running back positions. The offensive line has had a really good offseason this year and they are playing well right now. On defense: Our strength is up front; we have three big defensive linemen and I think this will overall help the defensive scheme.


We just have to be consistent with our work ethic and practice, and make sure we don’t have any mental lapses in games. Last year we made it to the state championship, but came up short

– we want to play solid every single week, and we can achieve this by taking it one week at a time and staying consistent.

Who are you expecting to lead the team this year?I put this responsibility on every player in the program. There are

players who stand out more than other players, and these individuals are considered leaders; for example, Bryce Love (senior) has been outstanding; and Mack Moore (senior) – his role as the quarterback on the team requires him to be a strong leader. On defense, Antwain Terry (senior) is one of the defensive linemen, up front who has to be a leader, along with linebackers like Kyle Stollmeyer (senior), Garrett Brannock (senior), Charlie Constantino (senior), and Jesse Britt (senior). We have some seniors that I feel should step up and be the leaders on this team. In my expectations, the seniors should be my leaders and the team should look up to them if they are leading them the right way.


From top to bottom, it’s going to be hard to predict who is going to win the conference championship. Every week

everyone will need to be ready to play, and this will make for exciting games on Friday nights. I think that this is one of the toughest conferences in the state of North Carolina.

How and why did you get into coaching?I played and graduated from Wake Forest-Rolesville High

School, and I went and played in college. After college, I came back home and got involved with helping my high school coach, Rock Harrison, as an assistant coach. I really enjoyed it and it gave me an opportunity to give back to the community.


The best way to support our team is to come out to Trentini Stadium every Friday night.

Anything else you wish to tell the readers of 919 Magazine about the team?

I would like to thank everyone for their support over the last couple of years, especially last year when we went to play in the state championship game. We had a tremendous fan base in Wake County. I’d like to thank everyone for that support!

A Framework of TeamworkWakefield Coach Believes TeamAtmosphere Critical to Success

After a successful 11-2 record last year, Wakefield High Football Coach Rod Sink hopes this year’s young squad can quickly develop the right “team atmosphere”. With less than seven players with significant Varsity experience, the Wolverines face a challenge to develop quickly while playing in the tough CAP 8 Conference – but Sink believes his team can develop and compete.

A Conversation with Rod Sink, Head Football Coach at Wakefield High School:


We’re trying to build upon the framework of teamwork that we developed over the last season. Last season’s success could be attributed to our team atmosphere that was developed by our seniors.


Our biggest challenge is our youth and inexperience. This will be the youngest Wakefield Varsity team that we’ve had in quite some time. We return less than seven players with significant Varsity playing experience. It will be a challenge to develop the same team atmosphere with such a young group of players who really don’t know what to expect on Friday nights.

What are the team’s strengths this year?Our offensive and defensive front seven. We’re returning

All Conference players Jake McCraw and Jacob Tyler on the offensive line, and Julian Drew, Marcus Spell, Prince Asonye and Drew Lair on our defensive front seven.


Only that they should compete! To compete, they should know their jobs, make good decisions and be willing to win on the last play of the game.

Who are you expecting to lead the team this year?Julian Drew, Jacob Tyler and Marcus Spell.


It appears it’s going to be another tough year in conference play. Millbrook seems to have the best overall team in the conference; Wake Forest will be solid as usual and will be in the running to compete for the conference title; and Sanderson should be able to build upon last year’s success to become a contender in the conference. Leesville Road is an unknown, but their tradition in their program and their new head coach should be able to keep them on solid ground. Heritage returns a strong defense and, barring any injuries, will be a solid team. Enloe hired a proven coach, and if he is able to get the program to gel, they can prove to be a formidable foe. Lastly, Broughton will show improvement with a more experienced team. It looks like it might be a dog fight between Millbrook, Wake Forest and Sanderson. I would not be surprised to see a one-loss conference champion or another year of co-champions.

919 | COMMUNITYHelping the Community One Plate at a Time

919 Magazine staff members joined other volunteers recently assisting Shepherd’s Table in downtown Raleigh in serving free meals to an estimated 300 guests for lunch.

Open Monday through Friday 11 am to 12 pm, or until everyone is served, Shepherd’s Table is funded solely through private donations

– but, according to Tamara Gregory, Executive Director of the Shepherd’s Table Soup Kitchen

-- only a percentage of the food is donated. She said the kitchen makes up for the shortfalls by purchasing food in bulk, while they also provide all of the utensils and everyday expenses

it takes to operate a high-volume kitchen. “It was a great experience for our team

and other volunteers to realize how lucky and blessed we are to have what we have,” said 919 Magazine Publisher Suzy Beth Sarver. “This experience opened our eyes about the need to assist others who have no money nor food.”

Gregory said the Shepherd’s Table uses about 20 volunteers each day – and with only two fulltime employees, volunteers are what make the kitchen a success. “We couldn’t do it without the wonderful people we have each day who give of themselves and come and help those in need,” Gregory noted.

What Italian Is All About!A Legacy Lives on Through AuthenticCuisine, Customer Service at La Foresta

New York-style pizza dough made daily from scratch. Fresh chicken and veal, pounded tender and prepared with care in the kitchen. Highest quality ingredients. Delicious, authentic Italian cuisine and friendly service. Tiramisu and cannoli. Sinatra music playing in the background.

This is what Italian food is all about at La Foresta Italian Café & Pizzeria in downtown Wake Forest.

The birth of La Foresta came in 1992 when Steve Tarangelo, was working as a real estate agent and stumbled across a small building on Highway 98 and began his dream. Born in the Bronx, he and his wife, Pam, moved from New York to North Carolina in 1989 when she accepted an IBM transfer. The concept for the restaurant was based on a small pizzeria in the Bronx that served New York-style pizza and stromboli, near Steve’s family’s business.

Having experience helping run his father’s company, Steve decided to start his own venture. Initially utilizing some of his mother’s recipes and the talents of a young “pizza man” named Louie from New York, Steve built a loyal customer base and eventually moved into the 3,800 sq. ft. space La Foresta

now occupies on Brooks Street.

But the La Foresta family was dealt a tragedy last year, when Steve died of brain cancer only about a year after being diagnosed. That’s when Pam and her son, David, stepped in to continue the 21-year legacy of Steve’s dream of providing a great place for people to gather and enjoy great food and ambiance.

“We continue with our motto, ‘What Italian Food is All About’ and have a wonderful staff that cares about our customers and wants to continue what Steve built,” said Pam, who owns and operates the landmark restaurant with son, David and Kitchen Manager Barbara Mazelan.

La Foresta features freshly made authentic Italian entrees, New York-style pizza (both whole and by the slice),

homemade meatballs – and a wide range of desserts. “We have recently expanded our menu to include some organic salad and organic specialty dishes and now also offer gluten free and no GMO organic pasta and even a gluten-free chocolate pie,” Pam said.

With seating for 120 indoors and additional seating on the patio, La Foresta accommodates casual diners – as well as gatherings for special occasions and celebrations. “It’s a fun place to come with the family, for a date or with a group of couples or friends,” Pam said. “Great customer service and a consistent top-quality product are the most important things we strive for, and to bring our

customers back on a regular basis.”

La Foresta Italian Café & Pizzeria is located at 203 S. Brooks Street in Historic Downtown Wake Forest. For information, call 919-554-4555 or visit www.laforesta.com.

Complex Changes Require Professional Tax PreparationBy LISA K. EYROLLES

Now more than ever, every taxpayer should hire a professional to prepare their taxes.

Because of the changing tax laws and with the Affordable Health Care Act coming into play this upcoming tax season, it’s important to seek assistance from a full service tax professional.

In addition, North Carolina tax law changes will likely affect every taxpayer in the state. Of course, anyone who receives a letter from either the Internal Revenue Service or State Department of Revenue, it’s important to seek qualified assistance.

Elite Tax and Financial Services, LLC is an affordable full service tax office. As an Enrolled Agent, I prepare taxes and I am admitted to practice

before the Internal Revenue Service. In addition to being the President of the North Carolina Society of Enrolled Agents and a Fellow from the National Tax Practice Institute, I attend more than 60 hours of continuing education every year in tax and representation.

We currently have mileage logs, small business worksheets, rental worksheets, and goodwill spreadsheets. Later this year, we will have brochures with upcoming tax law changes. Feel free to call ahead at 919-554-9400 to make sure we have exactly what you need; or stop by the office at 1241 S. Main St., Suite 17, in Wake Forest.

Making Every Guest Look and Feel GreatFantastic Sams in Wake Forest

Is Affordable for the Entire FamilyFantastic Sams: Offering exceptional cuts, styles

and colors at affordable prices since 1974

Fantastic Sams began in 1974 with one unique shag haircut.

Sam Ross developed the franchise with four core values: To meet the hair needs of every member of the family; to provide exceptional value; guests – not customers – would be treated as if they were guests in his home; and stylists would consult their guests to analyze their hair, their preferences and make suggestions.

Today, Lisa Bertrand brought back those core values to the Fantastic Sams Hair Salon in Wake Forest, based on the success she experienced at her original Wakefield location.

“We have friendly and talented stylists who provide exceptional customer service, as well as fantastic hair care service for a great price,” Bertrand said. “We are your neighborhood family salon that believes in supporting the community.”

This mission at Fantastic Sams Wake Forest is to make guests feel good about themselves when they walk out of the door, but without breaking the bank in the process. Plus, every haircut includes a complementary therapy shampoo and steam towel treatment.

“Fantastic Sams is a welcoming, relaxed, friendly, family-oriented salon that provides not only great service, but an exceptional value,” said Bertrand, adding that her team of stylists — Tammy Armani, Tami Goodwin, Beth Preddy, Angela Romero, Stephanie Todd and manager Amanda Grant (previously with the Wakefield location) – are all talented, well-trained professionals who specialize not only in cut, but also style and color.

“My highly trained stylists are professionals who are always up-to-date on the latest styles and trends, so I guess you could say that keeps us on the cutting edge,” Bertrand said.

On top of the already affordable prices, Fantastic Sams also offers senior discounts from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday-Friday; Color Days on Mondays and Wednesdays; Ladies’ Day on Tuesdays; Men’s Day on Thursdays, and specially priced facial wax services on Fridays.

Plus, Fantastic Sams offers a variety of quality hair care products for a fraction of the cost of most salon brands, so guests can have “that

fresh-from-the-salon look every day.”

Fantastic Sams is located at 13654 Capital Blvd in Wake Forest. For information, call 919-554-9889, email [email protected], or visit www.carolinas.fantasticsams.com.

March of Dimes Signature Chefs AuctionPremier Culinary Event Nov. 2At Prestonwood Country Club

Prestonwood Country Club in Cary is the site of this year’s premier culinary event in the Triangle.

The 2014 Triangle Signature Chefs Auction is 5:30 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 2, — featuring delectable dishes from some of the best chefs in the region. Benefitting the March of Dimes and its effort to bring

healthy babies to families everywhere, participants will sample signature dishes from local chefs, while bidding on unique and tempting auction packages.

Co-chaired by Suzy Beth Sarver, publisher of 919 Magazine, and Carrie Peele, owner and founder of Blue Diamond Transportation, the high profile event attracts 250 of the Triangle’s elite philanthropists and company executives.

“As a mother of two healthy boys, I’m acutely aware of how important good prenatal care is and how we need to support North Carolina mothers and promote healthy pregnancies and healthy babies,” said Sarver, explaining her involvement with the March of Dimes event. “This is also a great opportunity to bring together our communities and the residents of the 919 area for a great cause and an outstanding event.”

Catherine Heindselman, Director of the Eastern Carolina Division of March of Dimes, said she is excited to have Sarver and Peele chairing this year’s event. “We are so fortunate to have such a top-tier presence as Suzy and Carrie as our co-chairs for this year’s chef ’s auction,”

This is also a great opportunity to bring together our communities and the residents of the 919 area for a

great cause and an outstanding event.

SUZY BETH SARVERTRIANGLE SIGNATURE CHEFS AUCTION CO-CHAIR


she said. “They have graciously agreed to help support the March of Dimes, and subsequently, to help give babies a healthy start in life.”

Since 1995, the Triangle Signature Chefs Auction has raised more than $3 million to ensure the

health of the nation’s babies. One hundred percent of the proceeds go directly to the March of Dimes.

For 76 years, March of Dimes has worked to help babies. Early research led to the Salk and Sabin polio vaccines that all babies still receive.

Other breakthroughs include new treatments for premature infants and children with birth defects. About 4 million babies are born each year in the U.S., and all have benefitted from March of Dimes lifesaving research and education.

Self Care Must Include Skin CareBy DIANE MACK

The skin, like every other part of the body, is constantly under stress.

We understand that the skin is the outer layer, the protector of the many inner structures necessary for the normal activities of life. It is the shield against damage from chemicals, thermal, radiation, and other physical traumas. Skin care should be a viable part of total care.

In order for it to do its job well, the skin requires two forms of care: Proper internal nutrients and external stimulation/protection. The most beneficial procedure to accomplish external stimulation and protection is with a professionally applied facial.

A licensed esthetician starts by cleansing away harmful chemicals

with which one may have come in contact, including some found in popular skin care products. Looking through a magnifying light, a skin analysis determines problem areas and what it might need to become or stay healthy.

Proper exfoliation combined with rejuvenating “foods” for the different seasons of the year and of life re-balance and stimulate the skin. A facial massage increases cell growth, collagen production, lymph drainage and promotes healing. Special tools may be used to treat various conditions. A healing serum, the correct moisturizer and a sunscreen may be added to complete the treatment.

A facial is therapeutic, relaxing and rejuvenating – a must to take care of the largest organ of your body.
