A Sight For Board Of Directors

Sore Eyes May 2023 – May 2025 Officers/Executive Committee

Chairman and President Paul Hart District 5 Paul Hart (Esplanada)
By Judith Levy Vice President Robert Cornell Esplanada, Caravelle, Palomar, La Corniche,
Secretary Mary Ann Frazier and El Dorado
I hadn’t received a Treasurer Michelle Ricciuti-Carter District 6 Marvin Lazarowitz (Villa Stel)
leading role, much as I Villa Flora, Montego Bay, Villa Del Sol, and Palladium
wanted one. I was given District Directors District 7 David Arlein (Pointe 100)
a supporting role without District 1 Morton Karper (Valencia) The Plum/Cortina, Villa Sonrisa and Pointe 100
even one song to sing. My Encantada, Valencia and The Palms District 8 Jacob Stark (Costa Del Sol)
feelings were hurt but they District 2 Chandra Stewart-Keith (Panaché) Costa Del Sol and Costa Brava
say there are no small parts Promenade, Imperial Royale, Imperial, Regency District 9 P.J. Petkovic (Stratford Court)
and Panaché
just small actors. So, there District 3 Steve Retzer (La Mirada) Edgewater Pointe Estates and Stratford Court
I was, eleven years old La Mirada and Meridiana At Large Directors
and we were performing in the Rogers and Hammerstein District 4 Bob Greenstein (Lakes of La Paz) Through May 2025 Through May 2025
play Oklahoma! for generous contributors to our camp El Viento, La Paz, and Southwinds Robert Cornell (Costa Brava) Randy Raskin (The Palms)
for underprivileged Jewish children, of which I was one. Mary Ann Frazier (The Palms) Michelle Ricciuti-Carter (Encantada)
Everyone was nervous because there were celebrities in the Connie Murray (Villa Flora) David Sussman (Valencia)
audience and everything had better go well.
I had the part of Aunt Eller, and to open the show I was
alone on stage, churning butter, and my line was “I think I
hear the boys coming.” When I said it, no one came out! For
ten minutes no one came out while the crazed counselors
ran around trying to round up the errant campers who
were carousing around outside, never hearing their cue.
Meanwhile, I sang, told stories, even danced around and no
one in the audience knew anything was at all amiss.
For this showmanship I won the dramatic medal and was
hailed as a hero. For the rest of my life, stepping up to the
plate when things were almost Titanically catastrophic gave
me confidence and to this day no situation makes me quiver,
I just do my best and mostly it’s more than good enough. Just
think, in life, when you say I think I hear the boys coming
and no one comes out, you can still do your best and you
don’t need anyone else. Remember, the best help you’ll get
is at the end of your own right arm. I have confidence in you,
have some in yourself and you might see success, it may be
just a blink away. “Oh, what a beautiful morning.”
