Home > Newsroom > Easter Meals Gift Reflects Meaning of the Season
Published on April 14, 2014
SPARTANBURG SC, April 14, 2014 – During this, the season of hope and rebirth, Spartanburg Regional Foundation offers an opportunity to make a special time even more meaningful.
Sunday School classes, community organizations, civic clubs, youth groups, families and individuals are encouraged to make gifts to the Easter Meals for Regional Hospice Families program. This seasonal outreach – a long-standing collaboration between Spartanburg Regional Hospice and Wade's Restaurant – provides a delightful holiday dinner to hospice patients and their loved ones.
"The Easter Meals program allows hospice patients to celebrate Easter with their families," said Kristy Caradori, executive director of Spartanburg Regional Foundation, explaining that a $55 donation provides a full meal for a gathering of up to a dozen friends and relatives. "We are grateful to this generous community for reaching out to those coping with serious illness."
Easter Meals nourishes those under hospice care – not only physically but also spiritually and emotionally. The program provides a positive opportunity for extended families to gather round their loved one while creating a few more precious memories together. Sharing a meal leads to shared laughter, shared reminisces, shared acceptance of what's to come. Thus a gift to Easter Meals is a gesture that echoes this season's promise of renewal and joy.
The program, now in its 18th year, serves nearly 120 meals. Wade's Restaurant prepares and freeze-dries the food, which can then be easily heated in a microwave or oven. Duke Power retirees load packages into cars for the team of volunteers who deliver the meals to patients' homes. Wade's contributes a portion of the cost and community donations cover the rest.
In addition to Easter Meals, the Foundation offers hospice patients a Holding Cross when appropriate. A $15 donation covers the cost of one of these hand-carved wood symbols, which fit perfectly into the palm of your hand.
Donors may make gifts "in memory of" or "in honor of" and an acknowledgment will be sent to those being remembered or honored.
Spartanburg Regional Foundation is a 501(c)(3) organization, so all donations are tax-deductible. For more details, call 864.560.6727 or visit www.RegionalFoundation.com.
For more information or to talk to someone about the Easter Meals Campaign, contact Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System's media pager at 253-7561.

Manchester education standards proposal derided at public hearing
Manchester curriculum documents► Click here to view the Manchester Academic Standards draft templates.
Only five people spoke at the meeting, which was attended by about 20 members of the public. It was adjourned after 15 minutes. Superintendent Debra Livingston and her two assistants were on hand, as were members of the committee that developed the standards, but they did not speak.
The Common Core State Standards remain the basis for the bulk of the lessons, although Manchester does go its own way in certain areas, such as a greater emphasis on literature in high school language arts and a greater use of conventional math in the lower grades.
Referring to the difference between Common Core and the city standards, he said, "I don't know if it's a big distinction, but there is a distinction, and a lot of people worked very hard to make sure there is a difference."

The Board of Aldermen held a special meeting on Monday to discuss continuity of day-to-day city management and the search for a new city administrator as a result of the sudden departure last Thursday of Dianna Wright as city administrator.
City officials cite "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for Wright's departure. Wright had served as Wentzville's city administrator since June 2008.
At Monday's meeting the board directed the city's attorney, Paul Rost, to complete implementation of the final severance provision in Wright's contract as city administrator.
The board will begin conducting a search for Wright's replacement immediately. Until a replacement for Wright is found, Wentzville's Director of Finance and Assistant City Administrator, Dennis Walsh, will serve as the interim city administrator.
The city administrator is appointed to the position by the board of aldermen, according to the city's web site. The administrator provides professional leadership in carrying out the policies and objectives formulated by the board of aldermen.
The city administrator is part of a team with the mayor and board of aldermen, and may make recommendations to them.
The duties of the city administrator are as follows:
- Functions as the chief administrative assistant to the mayor and chief operating officer of the city.
- Prepares and submits an annual budget and a five-year Capital Improvement Program to the Board for consideration
- Supervises over purchasing, budgeting, financial reporting, public relations, policy development and personnel management.
- Serves as the Board's chief advisor
- Coordinates the day-to-day operation of all city departments to carry out the policies of the board of aldermen and ensure the citizens of Wentzville are being properly served.
- Responsible for the administration of all city personnel.
Wentzville Patch is following up on this story and will have more information as it becomes available.

According to an official Call of Duty Twitter Feed, the "Elite" feature released with MW3 -- which keeps track of user stats and multiplayer data -- is having trouble handling the amount of users trying to register.
"All. We aware of the issue. Surge of new Elite registrations is creating reg & login issues. Teams are working now to increase capacity", said the feed.
Activision says users that are able to register, their information is safe and is being stored correctly. This could be a well designed ploy to generate buzz, or it could be a small sign that Activision has scored again with it's Call of Duty Franchise.

A Kentucky National Guard member says a Nashville cabbie told him to get out of a taxi Sunday after asking if he was in the Army. Allen Pendley told News 2 he was wearing his military uniform when he was picked up at the downtown Nashville Greyhound Bus station by a Yellow Cab driver ,described as having what he considered "a Somali accent." The Guard member, who had just taken a bus back to Nashville after finishing drills in Kentucky, said he had gone several blocks through the downtown area before the cabbie asked him if he was in the Army."I replied yes, and then he told me to get out without saying anything else," said Pendley, who told News 2 he takes Nashville cabs several times a week because he is a student at an area technical college. "I have never had anything like this ever happen to me when I have been in uniform. I think it's discrimination," he added. The soldier said the cabbie then sped away after leaving him near the Tennessee Performing Arts Center shortly before 4 p.m. Pendley, who is a veteran of Iraq in 2009-10, said he intends to file a formal complaint with the Metro Transportation Licensing Commission, the Nashville agency that regulates cabs.The soldier said he did not get a cab number, but "would remember the driver's face if he ever saw him again." The 25-year-old soldier said he called Yellow Cab immediately after the Sunday incident. Yellow Cab executives were not aware of the complaint when contacted by News 2.The cab executives said they are looking into the matter by checking the company's new GPS system, which tracks the movements of every cab in service. Pendley was able to get another cab from a different company after being dropped off by the performing arts center.

Fisher Space Pens
.338 Lapua Magnum - Space Pen with American Flag
Our Price:
Product Code:
.338 Lapua Magnum Space Pen with American Flag
NOW AVAILABLE! The birth of the .338 Lapua Magnum dates back to 1982, when an American company Research Armament Industries, RAI, in Rogers Arkansas, was asked by the United States Marine forces to develop a long-range rifle for sniper applications. RAI was a relatively small company, owned by the late Jerry Haskins, operating mainly in the field of defense technology projects. Officially the project was to develop a target rifle for 1000 yards, but in reality the purpose was more likely to develop a 1500m sniper rifle. The Cap for this exciting new Space Pen model is an actual .338 H Mag Shell. What a special gift for the hunter or outdoors enthusiast. Inside is a lacquered Brass Cartridge Space Pen. Please note! This pen cap is RAW Brass, just as bullets are. That means there is no finish on the brass. Each one will have it's own unique look. Over time a nice patina will develop. Also we recommend you never fly with your .338 Cartridge Space Pen. TSA sometimes won't believe it's a writing instrument! We want you to enjoy your Space Pen for a long long time.

Organic Design and Classical Architecture:
A Chicago Story
Monday, April 16
6 p.m.
Free for ICAA members; Public $25 Buy tickets
Presented by the Institute of Classical Architecture and Art – Chicago-Midwest Chapter
In his autobiography, Frank Lloyd Wright describes an offer from Daniel Burnham to send him to Paris for four years to acquire a Beaux Arts education. As fantastic as the idea of Frank Lloyd Wright at the French École may seem today, the intriguing question remains: what did Burnham see in the young Wright to prompt such a generous offer? This lecture will explore what points of contact existed between the organic ideal championed by Louis Sullivan and Wright and the classical tradition Burnham represented.
About the Speaker

He co-edits Design Issues, recognized as one of the leading academic journals devoted to design studies.

EXCLUSIVE VIDEO - Liam Hemsworth Grunts When Asked About Reported Breakup With Miley Cyrus
Posted on Thu May 30th, 2013 2:00pm PDT By X17 Staff
Liam Hemsworth headed to a personal training session today, and the actor must not have wanted to talk about his reported broken engagement with Miley Cyrus, because he opted to grunt and make obnoxious noises when our photographer questioned him about the split!
The Aussie hunk has been working out nonstop lately! Just yesterday, the Hunger Games star headed to a local gym to pump some iron, so either he's working off some relationship stress or getting his bod in tip top shape now that he's single and ready to mingle!
Check out the full video to hear Liam's bizarre reaction...
