As hundreds of West Shore live well Magazine readers voted for the best places to eat, shop and have fun on the West Side, LaCentre in Westlake played host to the 4th Annual Best of the West Celebration. Best of the West finalists from more than 60 categories were on hand to showcase what’s made them a West Side favorite. Everything from restaurants to bowling alleys were there! Yes, it was the public’s turn to decide who comes out on top in the 2010 Best of the West competition. 1000 ballots were turned in, and results will be published in summer edition of live well Magazine. After that, you’ll see plenty of banners around town in front of the businesses and organizations that earned the right to lay claim to a Best of the West designation for 2010. Best of the West….

Four years ago, he founded Cooper Disposal in Avon. It was a natural for him to immediately ener- gize his venture with community involvement. Today, he is riding a wave of dramatic growth in his expanding business. Cooper says the growth of his business from scratch to a $2.5 million annual venture is based on a simple social equation: To be recognized as a company that gives back to the community. “It is all just a way to give back. I am always looking to give back. “People wondered why I would start a business when the economy was heading down. And yet, it is coming back to me. I have been richly blessed, no doubt,” said Coop from his headquarters at 4645 Jaycox Road in Avon last week.

But Cooper would rather talk about the difference his company can make in helping the local economy recover or assisting those in need. His community spirit emerged from his rough and tumble beginnings in Canton, where a team-spirited gridiron mentality still sees Cooper on the sidelines for Bulldog games each fall at McKinley High. “I love those kids. I want them to know that if someone like me can make it, they can, too,” he said. “They should set their goals to make it. There is nothing I want more than to show these kids the future is what they can make it.” His annual Cleveland Browns home opener tailgate party is famed. Last year’s “World’s Biggest Beer Cooler” event literally tugged at heartstrings, however, as Cooper Dis- posal used it as a heart transplant fundraiser for 43-year old Roger Hill, a fellow McKinley grad faced with a critical cardiac crisis. The year before, he assisted a cancer patient. “Thank you to Mike Cooper for the very successful Cleveland Browns Tailgate Party on Sept. 13, 2009. Mike Cooper owner of Cooper Disposal, an old classmate of Roger’s, held the party before the game with the idea of having the world’s largest beer cooler with the proceeds going towards Roger’s medical expenses. It was great fun and we realized Mike Cooper has the world’s largest heart!”

Posted by A Heart for Roger Hill www.AHeart4Roger.com Mike’s “people first” attitude is a driving force behind the rapid success of Cooper Dis- posal. A veteran of the waste management industry, Mike broke away from the big companies and earned contracts on his own in 2007. He was seen driving a golf cart and providing clean-up for downtown Cleveland’s Gravity Games three summers ago. The venture grew quickly and won enviable contracts for Cooper Disposal. Local contracts include the new Cleveland Clinic construction site in Avon and Westgate Mall in Fairview Park. With 126 containers in the field, Cooper and his team log dispatch drivers for daily runs that work more efficiently than scheduled routes. The phones ring constantly, and assignments are forwarded to teams in the field. “It is all about service,” said Cooper. “Ser- vice is everything. We want to be known for our service by everyone. I empower the em- ployees to make it right for the customer. They May 2010 Page 4 CrockerCrocker Park:Park: Who’sWho’s New!New!

Crocker Park’s newest project, the Mange Urban Garden, puts a new spin on city farming, promising to not only promote environmental awareness but give back to the community as well. The name ‘Mange’ comes from the French verb “to eat.” For veggie lovers, cost and freshness are huge benefits of urban gardening. Planting flowers enhances sur- roundings, providing a much-needed shot of color in an urban setting. Tending to plants can also reduce stress and offers a creative outlet to harried city dwellers. To that end, Crocker Park residents will help care for the garden, consisting of twenty-four raised beds constructed of cedar and composed of an organic blend of sweet peat, humus, and soil. Raised beds were chosen because they keep soil warmer, provide better drainage, and require less main- tenance than traditional gardens.

The Belvedere of Westlake knows how to make a baseball player for the home team feel really at home! Last year, The Belvedere of Westlake garnered national media attention when it became the first assisted living community in the country to serve as the summer home for a minor league baseball player. It went over so well, that they are back at it again this season. Joel Collins, a catcher with The Lake Erie Crush- ers was more than happy to move into the “Josh Faiola Suite,” occupied by the former Crusher last season. It is an instant replay of the Faiola story that was chronicled nationally on ESPN’s E:60 show. The suite is completely furnished and includes all the amenities, even cable TV and a kitchen! Collins knows he’s got it good! In thanking the residents and guests who at- tended last week’s Meet & Greet and Autograph session at The Belvedere, Joel said, “I’ve got a great setup up here. I’ve lived in some really nice places in the minor leagues and some not so nice places and this is far and away the nicest place I’ve lived in.” Collins happily signed inflatable baseballs for The Belles, The Belvedere’s girl’s softball team in the Westlake Softball League, met with residents, and even autographed The Belvedere PT Cruiser, with its nifty custom Crusher paint job, outside the front door. Collins can expect to have the support of plenty of surrogate “grandparents.” The average age of Belvedere residents is over 80, and they love having a baseball player in the family. “Yes, we decided to it again,” said Cindy Griffiths-Novak, whose brainchild it was last season to host a ers went on to win the league championship!
