                       company partners to create

                       Miami Community Ventures, a branch
                       of the Beacon Council Foundation,
                       seeks local businesses to partner in its
                       efforts to reduce chronic
                       unemployment and poverty in South
                       Florida.

                       Two programs will launch this year to
                       provide support to people facing
                       systemic barriers to success; one in                            MOMO PRODUCTIONS

                       through funding.

                       "The apprenticeships are a wonderful opportunity because many of
                       our underserved community members are very talented and need
                       an opportunity to be developed, up-skilled and trained," said VP
                       and Executive Director of Miami Community Ventures Sheri Colas-
                       Gervais.

                       Curriculum and training is designed and tailored by MCV for
                       employers. Businesses must be willing and able to provide living-

                       wage jobs to participants.

                       The living wage in Miami-Dade county is defined at about $14 per
                       hour, Colas-Gervais said.

                       "Any employer that is interested in providing living-wage jobs and
                       are committed not only to what it means for their business, but
                       what it means for the community, are welcomed and can reach
                       out," Colas-Gervais said.

                       The apprenticeship would include classroom instruction and on-
                       the-job training for participants for up to two years. All MCV
                       participants are low-income residents, 85% of which reside in
                       communities with poverty rates of at least 20%.

                       Though MCV recruits potential candidates, employers make final
                       hiring decisions.

                       Colas-Gervais said the series has great potential for the business
                       community.

                       "It's a win-win because the employer has the opportunity to have a
                       professionally designed and tailored apprenticeship that is state
                       approved," she said. "It's not coming out of their pockets, just
                       requires their commitment."

                       MCV is set to launch its first apprenticeship for about 15 individuals
                       at Miami's Bean Automotive Group, in partnership with Miami Dade
                       College and CareerSource South Florida this month.

                       Upon successful completion of the program, participants will take
                       an exam to become certified automotive technician specialists.

                       Colas-Gervais said MCV decided to focus its first iteration of the
                       series on the auto industry because of the change it faces.

                       "Going from combustible engines and gasoline to electric cars
                       requires a totally different skill set," she said. "This results in a case
                       of demand [for trained individuals] exceeding supply."

                       Though open to any suggestion, Colas-Gervais said MCV is
                       especially interested in partnering with employers from industries
                       undergoing similar transitions.

                       The apprenticeship program is just one initiative MCV has planned
                       to increase the economic stability of the county.

                       Its Small Business Entrepreneurship Track offers training to female-
                       owned Black and LatinX early-stage businesses with annual
                       revenue of less than $500,000 seeking coaching and mentorship
                       to scale. Bank of America is the initiative's founding sponsor.

                       "Small businesses are there and they need this," Colas-Gervais
                       said. "It would bring value to them and to the community."

                       Founded in 2019 by the Miami-Dade Beacon Council — the county's
                       economic development partnership — MCV has raised $2 million
                       to date and has placed over 80 people in jobs since October 2020,
                       with average wages that exceed the living wage target.

                       The unemployment rate in Miami-Dade County was 6.7% in May,
                       exceeding the national unemployment rate of 5.8%, according to
                       Federal Reserve economic data.

                       "Through our initiatives, we are providing economic mobility and
                       opportunity," Colas-Gervais said. "Together we are creating jobs for
                       our underserved community members."

   In 2011, when Yasmani Grandal met Heather — the woman who would become
   his wife — he told her he worked in construction.

   In reality, Grandal at that time was a top minor-league baseball prospect on his
   way to the majors after starring at Miami Springs High and the University of
   Miami.

   Grandal and Heather had been dating for one year — in Arizona, where she's from
   and where he was playing Triple A baseball — before he finally told her about his
   actual career.

   Grandal, a two-time All-Star catcher who now plays for the Chicago White Sox, has
   given his time and money to a lot of causes, Heather said, and he doesn't do it to
   seek publicity.

   Carlos Marti, the coach of the Miami-based Florida Legends travel team for players
   age 18 and under, recently received a $25,000 donation from Grandal.

   That money, Marti said, financed a trip to Joplin, Missouri, where the Legends on
   Sunday qualified for the 12-team Connie Mack World Series, which will be held
   July 23-31 in Farmington, New Mexico.

   "We're extremely grateful to Yas," Marti said. "He didn't even play for the Legends,
   but he hasn't forgotten his roots in Miami."

   Indeed, Grandal played for other youth-league teams like the Miami Stings, Miami
   Maniacs and Hialeah Heat.

   "His parents [Maria and Eliaser Grandal] still have those jerseys and pictures,"
   Heather said.

   In other words, those early days in a player's career still carry impact

   For the Legends, this will be their 10th trip to the Connie Mack World Series and
   their fourth in a row. And although they have never won the Mack title, 19 former
   Legends players have made it to the major leagues, a list that includes Manny
   Machado, Anthony Rizzo, Albert Almora, Zack Collins, Andrew Suarez, Aramis
   Garcia, Peter O'Brien and Luke Jackson.

   Yet for all those stars, Grandal's donation is the biggest one ever received by the
   Legends from a baseball player.

7/13/2021                                      White Sox catcher Grandal gives $25,000 to local travel team 1 Miami Herald

   That charitable spirit is typical Grandal, according to his agent, Michael Maulini.

   "Once every homestand in Chicago, Yas rents a suite and donates it to a low-
   income family so they can watch the White Sox in style," Maulini said. "Yas has
   always given back to the community. He just never let it become known publicly.
   That's not his character."

   Heather said she and Maulini were finally able to convince Grandal — who was
   not available to speak to the Herald for this story due to his busy baseball schedule
   — that it is OK to take an occasional bow.

   Among the causes Grandal supports is autism, working with a group called
   Arizona Helping Hands. Heather said Grandal loves visiting with autistic kids, and
   the feeling is mutual.

   Meanwhile, Adrian Morales, who went on to win two College World Series titles as
   South Carolina's starting third baseman, is now the head coach at Miami-Dade
   College. But in high school, he and Grandal were teammates at Miami Springs.

   "Yas donates catching and other gear to us at MDC and to about 10 to 15 Miami
   high schools," Morales said. "Even though he doesn't play for the Marlins, he is still
   active in the Miami community.

   "He now lives in Arizona and speaks with a heavy American accent. But, other
   than that, he hasn't changed. He's still that kid from Hialeah."

Down the Fairway: Glens Falls Country Club sees three hole-
in-ones in one day

    In his more than 40 years as head pro at scenic Glens Falls Country Club,
   Rexford native and Niskayuna High School graduate Torn Haggerty figured
   he'd seen just about everything you can observe in his profession that often
   deals with strange bounces from a tiny white ball. But the Northeastern New
    York PGA Hall of Farner witnessed a rare event last month.

   Sr., and deceased brother, veteran Schenectady Municipal Golf Course head
   pro Bob Haggerty Jr., are also in the NENY PGA Hall of Fame, was happy to
   verify three holes-in-one at his course on the same day last month. The odds
   of any one player recording an ace are pretty steep. To witness three on the
   same layout on the same day is almost unbelievable.

   "Never in my memory have I seen or even heard of something happening
   like this," Haggerty said. "It's amazing. We have a hole-in-one deal at our club.
    If any male golfer records a hole-in-one, everyone, even if they don't play
   golf, gets a drink. That day, the bartender did quite well.'

   Stu Ginsberg started the parade of aces with a shot from 110 yards off the
   green tees on the third hole. He used a 9-iron, and the shot went in about
    8:30 a.m. Then, it was Bob Huntz's turn, as he flew a hybrid 184 yards into
    the cup on the 12th hole around 2 p.m. Closing out the super shots was Joe
    Richardson, who hit an 8-iron on the third hole again, this time from the 142-
    yard white tees at about 4 p.m.

   "It's mind-boggling," Haggerty said. "The percentages are tremendous
    against anything like this ever happening. Some years, we have three holes-
    in-one all year. Then, sometimes we have 15 holes-in-one in one season. But
    three in one day is really something."

    The barrage of aces isn't the only thing keeping a smile on Haggerty's face.
    His course, designed by fame architect Donald Ross, has been ranked 86th
    in the country by GOLF magazine.

    "We've had so many accolades recently," Haggerty said, "We are very proud."

    Glens Falls CC, a private club located in Queensbury off of Round Pond Road,
    began as a nine-hole layout in 1912 and, expanded to 18 holes by 1921. It's
    known for its rolling hills, outstanding scenery, challenging approach shots

   open quickly after even the worst storms.

   The course has been host to some of the greatest players in the game,
   especially from 1929 to 1939, when it was the site for the Glens Falls Open.
   Such legendary players as Byron Nelson, Ben Hogan, Gene Sarazen, Sam
   Snead and Walter Hagen competed at Glens Falls CC.

    Haggerty was asked why Glens Falls CC is so special.

   "First of all, we were lucky to be designed by one of the greatest architects in
    history in Donald Ross," Haggerty noted. "But the thing I think is great is that
    you can play here every day and not get sick of it. There aren't many flat lies,
    it's very a very picturesque course, and it's quite unique. We get calls all the
    time from people who to want to play here, but unfortunately, we can't
    accommodate outsiders unless they are invited by our members as guests.

    "Almost all of our local pros think this is the best course in the area. We have
    quite a reputation."

    Haggerty is one of the area's most experienced golf professionals. After
    graduating from Niskayuna in 1970, where he was the No. 1 player on the
    golf team that went to the state tournament, he attended Miami-Dade
    College for a year before serving as Al Stein Jr.'s assistant pro at Glens Falls
    CC for eight seasons. Haggerty earned his PGA membership in 1981 and
    took over the head pro duties from Stein that same year after Stein left to
    become part owner of a golf course.

    Among Haggerty's career highlights was serving on the NENY PGA's
    nominating committee, tournament committee and board of directors. He
    was named the winner of the Bill Strausbaugh Award for club relations and
    community service in 1988, was the Merchandiser of the Year for private
    clubs three times and was also the honorary captain for the pro team in the

   "The thing I'm most proud of is my longevity," Haggerty said when he was
   inducted into the section's Hall of Fame in 2005. "Making sure I give 100% to
   my membership and my service between teaching and running tournaments
   is what I'm all about. I feel fortunate to be here at Glens Falls. My goal is
   always to give top service. We are in the happiness business."

   SOLID LOCAL FIELD AT STATE OPEN

   Ten-time Northeastern New York PGA Player of the Year Scott Berliner, the
   46-year-old assistant pro at Saratoga Spa Golf Course and the winner of this

   USA /    2021 /117 min / Documentary
   In English

   The Harlem Cultural Festival took place the same summer as the famed Woodstock festival, and boasted an
   attendance on par with that concert 100 miles away. Over 300,000 people attended, yet it received virtually no
   coverage from the mainstream media. The 40 hours of never-seen-before footage has remained in storage
   for the past 50 years, keeping this incredible event in America's history lost - until now. It features many
   extraordinary performances by artists including Stevie Wonder, Sly and The Family Stone, Nina Simone, B.B.
   King, the Staple Singers, the 5th Dimension, David Ruffin, Mahalia Jackson, Ray Barretto and Gladys Knight
   and the Pips. (Synopsis from IMDb).

   Winner of Grand Jury Award AND Audience Award in the US Documentary Competition at 2021 Sundance
   Film Festival.
