Clutching their tennis rackets, garbed in athletic gear, community mothers and daughters eagerly made their way to the Deal Casino courts. The tennis tournament for S.E.A.D., the Special Education Academy of Deal, was underway by 8 am. Women were excited to play with their families, as Frieda Gheriani confirmed, “Where else do you get to play with your grandmother and mother in a tournament? This is the only tournament where you are playing with family, not friends.”
Imagine an unusually creative day where women forget about their to-do lists and focus on themselves through expressive artful dance on the beach. Well imagine no more because Gem Suslovich, a community yoga instructor and the Art and Film Salon host, created that very event!

Nobody can debate that 2010 has brought change – and the year’s not over. We’re all concerned about the economy, changes to our healthcare system, new banking regulations, America’s relations with Israel, the domestic war on terrorism and our nation’s battles overseas.
