Advantage Plans You can choose to get your Medicare coverage through a Medicare Advantage Plan, which is Part C, instead of Original Medicare with a Medigap Plan or supplement. Medicare Advantage Plans are health plans offered by private insurance companies such as health mainte- nance organizations (HMO) or preferred provider organizations (PPO). Most offer prescription drug coverage. “If you have a Medicare Advantage Plan that includes a Part D pre- scription drug plan, you do not enroll in a separate Part D prescriptions drug plan,” Caracappa explained. “That’s why it is important review both your Medicare Part D and your Advantage Plan during the open enrollment period.” There will be a question-and-answer session at the end of each seminar and attendees who want additional assistance can set up an appointment to review their plans with Caracappa through Washing- ton Hospitals’ Health Insurance Information Service. The free and confidential service can provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision about your health insurance, in- cluding Medicare.

Calperf operating under Creative Foods, a Santa Clara estab- lishment, is recalling approximately 216 pounds of chicken product due to misbranding and an undeclared allergen, as the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) announced on September 25. The product con- tains yogurt derived from milk, a known allergen, which is not declared on the product label. While yogurt is declared on the front label, the product is missing an ingredient list identifying milk as a sub-ingredient. The marinated skinless chicken item was produced on Sep- tember 16, 2015. The following product is subject to recall: 2-lb. sealed trays of “Green Meadows Premium Meat Cuts Marinated Skinless Chicken Bone-In Cubed Chicken in 23 per- cent Yogurt-Curry Marinade” with a use-by date/Case code date of September 30, 2015. The product subject to recall bears the establishment number “P-6052” inside the USDA mark of inspection. The item was shipped to retailers in the San Francisco, California Bay Area. The problem was discovered by FSIS personnel during rou- tine verification tasks. There have been no confirmed reports of adverse reactions due to consumption of these products. Anyone concerned about an injury or illness should contact a healthcare provider. DID YOU KNOW?

The “Gathering of Ohlone Peoples,” a signature event for East Bay Regional Park District, will take place on Sunday, October 4 at Coyote Hills Re- gional Park. Activities for participants include mak- ing abalone pendant necklaces, tasting traditional foods such as manzanita cider, and making small tule boats to take home. The Ohlone will share their history and culture with stage presentations, displays, and songs. They will discuss contemporary cultural involvements, and demonstrate how to make basket, soaproot brush, and dogbane string among others. The event is celebrated at Coyote Hills in Fre- mont primarily because there is a 2,400-year-old Tuibun Village site that is open to the public during guided programs. Participants can visit the village site and learn about the reconstructed dwellings and the shellmound within it. Get a sense of how this area looked and felt like, from the Ohlones’ inti- mate connection with nature to imagining the elk, antelope, and bears that used to inhabit this area. They’ll also share the traditional way of preparing Photo by Beverly Ortiz food such as acorn, but also teach us about modern, contemporary ways that Ohlones practice today. Beverly Ortiz, Cultural Services Coordinator Gathering of Ohlone Peoples with the District, originated the event 22 years ago Sunday, Oct 4 to bring the native community – from as far as the 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Carquinez Strait in Vallejo to Monterey Bay – to- Coyote Hills Regional Park gether to celebrate their thriving culture and tradi- 8000 Patterson Ranch Rd, Fremont tions.

For All Signs: The eclipse energy of this month continues its background effect on everyone. The world’s structures are so precarious that some may have collapsed. Indeed, whether global or personal, anything built on sand rather than solid ground is showing cracks and signs of impending change. That means issues that have been developing for a long time are brought into the light. It is judgment time for good or ill. In Chinese, crisis means opportunity for change. Keep this thought in mind if you are losing something you thought you needed. With hindsight, you may look back on this time as a godsend.

So far, over 600 guests are attending this year, and the Foundation expects the number to grow as the event inches closer. There will be a silent and live auction, and Bay Area local band Groove Doctors will be performing Motown hits and more. As in Spectaculars before, ex- pect delicious food and drinks, this year provided by Oakland-based caterer Splurge. Guests have the option of a double cut filet, the Splurge cioppino, or wild mushroom risotto. The Spectacular was voted Classic Party Rentals’ “Most Fabulous Event” and awarded $10,000 in 2010 – come see how the event has grown even more fabu- lous over the years. Funds raised at the event go directly back to St. Rose. Hospital ad- ministration lets the Foundation know what projects are in need, and The Spectacular then raises funds for the chosen department or equip- ment. This year, funds are going to a new perinatal fetal monitoring system, which monitors both mothers and babies during the last stages of pregnancy and delivery. These monitoring systems ensure a healthy and happy outcome for mom and child, making sure everything is going smoothly and as it should; if not, it allows staff to act accord-

ingly. Such systems are deserved for all new mothers, and St. Rose hopes to replace its outdated system. Tickets are $250 per person, and tables of ten range in price ac- cording to sponsorship intentions. Table sponsorships are given clever names harking to Motown, such as The Supremes, The Temptations, Jackson 5, and so on. For more ticketing, sponsorship, and donation information, visit www.strosehospital.org/giving-volunteering/founda- tion-events/spectacular-xxviii/. Community hospitals are gems; they provide general access and care as well as targeted service to its local community at affordable costs. Support St. Rose today, and help a pillar of Hayward shine!

Action projects that provide sustainable, lasting benefits to their communities. Steffi’s Gold Award project is an Excess Medical Supplies Knowledge Database, constructed to benefit MedShare, a non- profit organization. For her Senior Journey, an expansive se- ries of leadership and life skill activities, she chose to complete “Sow What?” where she learned about how and where food is grown, harvested, processed, distributed, and consumed and why it all matters. She then took action by volunteering at Full Circle Farm, a local sustainable commu- nity organic farm. Steffi first learned of MedShare via her high school’s Change Benchmark Project, an environmental service project required for all freshmen. She and her team, after researching many opportunities, decided to work with MedShare because not only does it help the environment, the organiza- tion also make a huge humanitarian im- pact when supplies reach recipients. Bridging the gap between surplus and need, MedShare diverts excess medical supplies from landfills to medical mission teams and hospitals and clinics in need around the world. Continuing to volunteer regularly, Steffi earned a spot on MedShare’s Hour Hero board. She also participated in some of their latest projects, like helping fundraise for two volunteer sponsored containers to a hospital in Tanzania and a maternity hos- pital in Sierra Leone. The Sierra Leone container was special as it marked the 200th container that MedShare of San Le- andro sent out. After two years, Steffi as a more experi- enced volunteer recognized challenges in the sorting process. At MedShare, after do- nated items are received from hospitals, clinics, or manufacturers, they are first Girl Scout Troop 31509.

Born in Westchester New York in 1955, to parents Anne Whelan and Geoffrey Howland Tootell. Faith received her Master's Degree from UC Davis. Juvenile diabetes forced her to undergo dialysis in her mid-twenties. This experience made her acutely aware of the need for dialysis patients to have proper nutri- tional care and guidance. Faith devoted her life to advocating for her patients and for her field. She published several papers and spoke at many conferences in an effort to improve the quality of life of others. During her life, Faith experienced many medical challenges including several transplants and open heart surgery. Those who encountered Faith during these struggles were amazed by her courage, determination, and discipline. Faith is survived by her husband of many years, Robert Gates, her father Geoff, her brother Geoffrey and his wife Catherine, and her two sisters Megan and Lizzie. Another of Faith's passions was to be the world’s best aunt; her nieces, Anne, Caddy and Rosie, and her nephews Matt, William, Danny and Eric will all attest to her success in this area. She never missed an important event in any of their lives, and was a tremendous role model to them all. Page 36 WHAT’S HAPPENING’S TRI-CITY VOICE September 29, 2015

THEATRE REVIEW

BY JULIE GRABOWSKI PHOTOS BY DEBBIE OTTERSTETTER

Backstage at Harlem’s Apollo Theater The Dreamettes stand ready to take their shot at fame and fortune. Deena, Effie, and Lorrell are sure that winning the talent contest will be the first step in making their dreams come true. They get off to an unexpected start, gaining used car sales- man Curtis as a manager, who puts them on the show business road as backup singers for R&B star Jimmy Early. But the journey to being their own solo group is colored by drive, desire, romance, and in- ternal conflict, proving that dreams never quite turn out as expected. Stage 1 Theatre has never shied from tak- ing big theatrical leaps, tackling such giants as “Aida,” “Fiddler on the Roof,” “Les Mis- erables,” and “Jesus Christ Superstar.” They rise to the task yet again with the Tony and Oscar-winning musical “Dreamgirls.” Direc- tor Dawn L.

The East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD) hired a veteran leader in Bay Area law enforcement to serve as captain of its Police Department. Capt. Anthony “Tony” Ciaburro, 49, started September 21 at the Park District, where he over- sees Patrol Operations throughout all 65 regional parks, the Investigations Unit and the Volunteer Safety Patrol Unit. He also serves as the liaison with the Park District’s unit managers. In addi- tion, he will be the District’s liaison with the East Bay Municipal Utility District and the San Fran- cisco Public Utilities Commission. Capt. Ciaburro began his career in law enforce- ment in 1989 as an officer with the San Jose Police Department. He worked on narcotics, robberies, in- ternal affairs and on the SWAT team. As a lieu- tenant, he ran Santa Clara County’s regional auto theft task force and oversaw investigations. Working his way up to captain, Ciaburro commanded the Central Division, overseeing 125 police officers. “We’re thrilled to have Capt. Ciaburro join our A native of San Francisco, Capt.
