Before the coronavirus pandemic, Wayne resi- CINDY SCHWEICH dent Jolie Della Valle – stage name, Miss Jolie HANDLER – performed before hundreds of kids ages 2 – 6, getting them to sing, dance and hear her mes- sages of self-confidence and living in the moment. But they can still read her children’s books and listen to her songs on her website, missjoliemusic.com. Read about how she transitioned from clothes designer to energetic kids’ enter- tainer in “Pied Piper for Preschoolers.” The nonprofit group Friends of Laurelwood Arboretum is raising funds to incorporate 15 sculptures along a trail in the preserve. For the latest news on this project, check out “Natural Setting for Art.” And if we have to be in our homes, it’s nice if we can have a panoramic lake view outside our windows. The owners of the home featured in “Luxury on the Lake” share their Pines Lake vista with readers. Be safe and healthy, Wayne!
