the events have grown

Bonza Bash started in 2005 as a black tie house party for three Australian ex-pats living in Seattle, WA and since grown into the most prestigious collection of deliciously upscale, yet outrageously fun formal-dress parties in the US Pacific Northwest. While the events have grown, the core Bonza values remain the same - plan the most spectacular parties for upwardly mobile professionals both young and young-at-heart, while at the same time exposing local charities to the generosity of this audience!The first bald eagle count of the winter was conducted Dec. 18 by local federal and state biologists, and volunteers around lakes in the San Bernardino and San Jacinto mountains.

A total of five adult eagles were observed during the one-hour count. Two eagles were observed in the Big Bear-Baldwin Lake area, one eagle was seen at Lake Arrowhead-Lake Gregory and one eagle was counted at Silverwood Lake. While no eagles were observed at Lake Hemet, one adult was observed at Lake Perris.   

Approximately 52 volunteers participated in the census including 18 in the Big Bear area, three in Lake Arrowhead, two at Lake Hemet, 11 at Silverwood Lake, and 18 at Lake Perris. The U.S. Forest Service and State Recreation Area biologists organized the counts. 

There are three remaining eagle counts this winter set for Jan. 8, Feb. 12 and March 12. Volunteers are needed. No experience is necessary. Volunteers should dress warmly and bring binoculars and a watch.

Coined a “Diamond Night in the Emerald City,” the Bonza Bash New Year’s Eve 2011 Gala Ball combines a VIP experience with the charitable spirit of the area, in order to benefit local charity, “Bridge of Promise.” The event features a red carpet entry and complimentary coat check; music will be provided by 18-piece swingin’ big band, “The Mach One Jazz Orchestra,” Portland-based DJ Gigahurtz and Seattle’s own DJ SpeedyG. Sponsored by shindigg, Buddy, Fremont Studios, PJ Hummel & Co. and Karuza & Koh, the Bonza Bash New Year’s Eve 2011 Gala Ball will feature the most decadent and luxuriously appointed VIP Lounge in town, along with complimentary party favors, red carpet photographs, and thousands of dollars in prizes and giveaways, as well as ultra-VIP packages for those looking for the ultimate night out.

The course at New Milford covers the Armenian genocide

The course at New Milford covers the Armenian genocide, the Aramaean persecution during the Armenian genocide, the Holocaust, and human behavior and genocide in Cambodia, Rwanda and Darfur.

Each year Tambuscio travels with students to Europe as part of a Holocaust study tour. This school year's trip in April will visit Germany, the Czech Republic and Poland, where the students will meet Holocaust survivors; when they return to the U.S., they will create outreach programs. In May, a group of students from Nahariya will visit New Milford.

"The students come back with a sense of responsibility for telling the stories," said New Milford Superintendent Michael Polizzi. "They understand that every year there are fewer and fewer survivors, and they pick up on that … that resonates with them."

The course is a model program at the high school.

Rosenberg's presentation offered students an idea of how their counterpart students dress, study and test for college. His insight and information will tie into a global leadership program to be introduced into the New Milford curriculum, Polizzi said.

Meredith McCann, a senior who traveled to Europe with Tambuscio last year, called Rosenberg's talk invaluable.

"Having him speak and having them here is something you really can't get anywhere else," said McCann, 17. "A lot of questions about Israel have been cleared up. He's opening our eyes so much to information that we never really knew before. The questions [about Israel and the Holocaust] aren't really coming to him from us yet because we're absorbing so much of what he said today. We've studied the warning signs to genocide and the Armenian genocide and are now in the beginning of studying the Holocaust, so the timing [of their visit] is perfect."

Technology such as Skype and social networking sites are an advantage now that the students have met all the educators, McCann said.

"The more connections we make, the more connections we'll be able to have when w

Rabbi Yehuda Rosenberg, principal of the Ulpana School

The educators, from the city of Nahariya in Israel, have partnered with the school through the UJA Federation of Northern New Jersey's Partnership 2000 program. The New Milford High School curriculum includes a model course taught by Colleen Tambuscio that covers the Holocaust, genocide and human behavior.

"Our program in New Milford teaches the warning signs of genocide," Tambuscio said. "The lesson is to teach students to be on guard for genocide today."

Rabbi Yehuda Rosenberg, principal of the Ulpana School — a religious school for girls in the Nahariya district — offered a presentation about Israel as a democracy to some of the 45 students in the course.

The son of a Holocaust survivor, Rosenberg told the students that for modern Israel, the "big issues" are "peace, security, economics."

Rosenberg outlined the role of the legislative body, or Knesset, to the students, offering them a glimpse of the 120-member parliament and elections that involve 15 political parties rather than a two-party system.

Joining Rosenberg on the trip to New Milford — the only stop at a U.S. public school — was co-worker Mercedes Hadad, a teacher at Ulpana, and Rivka Ben Ami, principal of Remez Elementary School. The delegation also included Avi Menashes, head of Shechakim Junior and Senior High School, and Avi Berger, principal of Even Shoham Dati Elementary School.

Tambuscio is no stranger to Nahariya, the schools or the school district. She visited the city two months ago through the UJA Federation of Northern New Jersey's Partnership 2000 program.
