Meet the BPS101 teacher honored as volunteer of the year at MarklundCharity in GenevaIL
With about 65 first graders chanting"Clarey! Clarey! Clarey!" residents and staff at Marklund Hyde Center campus in Geneva could say without hesitation it was the most noise they have heard in their community day services rooms since before the pandemic lockdowns.
"It was quite a surprise, and a moment I'll not forget," said Clarey, who wanted more of the spotlight on other volunteers and staff at Marklund. "This was the first time we've had people back and interacting with our residents, especially 65 little ones like this," said Dawn Lassiter-Brueske, chief communications officer at Marklund."It was bringing people out of their offices and work areas to look because they heard the noise of these little voices and their faces being so happy; the staff was so happy to have it back.
Calling it a"lasting friendship" with Marklund and its staff, Clarey ingrained in his teams the need to serve and give to others. During COVID years, the teams conducted gift drives to provide Marklund residents with needed essentials. Aside from the COVID years, the teams have gone to Marklund on the first days of practice since 2010.
"It was fun to do the surprise announcement for the volunteer of the year," Lassiter-Brueske said."Chad was really surprised with the honor, and he gave a fantastic speech about the students coming and making new friends." All those characters are intertwined in this fascinating musical at Paramount Theatre in Aurora, presenting a story that tells us there's always a twist to"living happily ever after," and it's called the reality of life's highs and lows.
In the case of"Into the Woods," it would be Sarah Bockel who played the Baker's Wife. She had me sold on every move and song when her scenes unfolded. But uplifting news can occur in the aftermath of a tragedy, and a St. Charles businessman has done his part to ensure some joy can be part of that. Project Mobility has done this for many kids and adults, and it was no surprise that Honeyman steered it toward Cooper after so much has been in the news about his difficult recovery.
