During a humanitarian mission in January 2010, four Lynn University students and two faculty

members were tragically killed when the 7.0 Haiti earthquake devastated the island nation.

Designed by renowned Sousa Architecture, the Remembrance Plaza features the elements of

light, water, stone and trees.

In a lot of ways the New Year allows us to begin anew with a clean slate.  Many of us start January 1^st with a list of resolutions or goals.  This year we wondered how many of those can be accomplished with stone.

For those in & out of the stone industry, let’s see what stone can do for you in 2012;

Resolutions:

1.  Travel and see the world.  Explore new destinations and famous sites while attending stone shows.  From Brazil, Egypt, Turkey, China and Italy stones fairs showcase the newest products and innovations in some of the world‘s most famous cities.

Our three adorable rescue kittens are now ready for adoption!  After three months of tender love and care from the wonderful volunteers at Paws of South Florida Rescue, Mary Marble, Peter Rocky, and Paul Boulder are ready to find a home for life. 

It is the holiday season and for many of us that means visits from the in-laws, last-minute shopping, and all around crazy schedules. It is easy to get lost in the hustle and bustle this time of the year, so let’s all make an effort to get out and have some fun.  

Below are just a few of the upcoming holiday events taking place in South Florida.

• Winterfest Boat Parade (December 10, 2011) in Fort Lauderdale offers magical moments for kids and adults alike featuring festively decorated boats and a visit from Santa Claus!.

• Santa’s Enchanted Forest (All month) - Between the long days, warm spring-like temperatures and lack of snow, it is sometimes impossible to get in the spirit. When these days get the better of you, go where Christmas is in the air- Santa's Enchanted Forest. Only Scrooge himself wouldn't ho-ho-ho here!
