BOSTON (WBZ) ―
Guiding Eyes
In Boston, Wyc Grousbeck, the CEO of the Boston Celtics is one of the main people responsible for guiding that team back into the winner's column. The Grousbeck name is also connected with leading a number of worthy charities in Boston including the Perkins School for the Blind where Wyc's wife Corinne is a member of the board of trustees. The Grousbeck's commitment to Perkins is passionate and personal. Their teenage son is a student there.
How to Be a "Power Chick" How do women get to the top of Boston's corporate world? The best way to find out is to ask a woman who's there. We welcome business executive and communications specialist Geri Denterlein, whose the author of "The Power Chick's Guide to Boston."
A Bee line to Berryline If you're looking for the best tasting yogurt in town, I suggest you head over to Arrow Street in Cambridge. That's where the Berryline Yogurt Shop is located. Created by a couple of students from MIT and Harvard, Berryline offers a delightful tasting non-fat frozen yogurt that is, as far as the folks our Sunday Crew talked to, the top of the line.
A Summer Sail Every summer, students from all over the area head over to East Boston, don life jackets and step into beautiful sloops to learn the basics of sailing. It's a fun way to spend a day, offers an incredible view of the city and provides its young students with some unique guidance on how to navigate their way through life.
Just Thinking We're planning another trip to check on the construction of the Girls school a group of us are building in a tiny village in southern Sudan. Making the arrangements is always tricky because there are so many elements over which we have no control, like the weather, the political stability. And even when we are not so concerned about flooding, drought or unrest, there is always a possibility of cancelled flights, lost cargo or missed connections with guides. In this part of the world, the mundane can become much more troublesome. That's why I describe traveling to the village of Akon, Sudan as an act of the spirit. At the end of the day, no matter how much you study, prepare, and work on the details, it is a 21 hour, 9 thousand mile journey of faith. That does not mean we are all Pollyanna's moving on blind optimism. Our realistic understanding of the challenges of the journey never over shadow our resolute belief in the outcome. It's being sure of what you hope for and certain of what you do not see.
Sunday is proud to present Louise Setera.
