ASB Client Climbs Her Way to the Top

icole St. John, of Northeast Philadelphia, first came to Associated Services for the Blind and Visually Impaired (ASB) in 2004 after glaucoma and cataracts left her totally blind by the age of 18. According to the World Health Organization, glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness in the world. Sufferers experience optic nerve damage leading to progressive, irreversible loss of vision. It is often, but not always, associated with increased pressure of the fluid in the eye. Born in Trinidad, Nicole moved to the United States when she was eight and half years old. Always active, Nicole’s zest for adventure didn’t end with her vision loss. Under the guidance of ASB’s staff and support of her peers, Nicole has flourished. When Nicole first came to ASB, she was reserved and unsure of herself and her abilities and really wanted to enhance her independent living skills. The classes, lessons, and support groups Nicole attended helped her establish herself in a world filled with obstacles. She graduated from the Life Skills 1 and 2 classes after learning organizational, functional lessons for adapting to the world. The Low Vision support group paired her with individuals facing similar challenges, and the group for Young Adults addressed issues specific to her age. “ASB gave me help with everything I needed,” said Nicole. “They helped me accept my vision loss and gave me advice and support and explained how I could organize my life to best suit me. I can’t imagine my life had I not came here.” It was at ASB that Nicole heard about The PA Center for Adaptive Sports, a center dedicated to promoting active lifestyles, healthy living, and personal growth for people with disabilities. Through this program, Nicole was reintroduced to numerous sports including swimming, biking, and her personal favorite—rock climbing. She started in a beginner’s group with about 10-15 other participants. The once-a-month lesson she takes at Elite Climbing in Maple Shade, N.J., has her and her group practice their skills at climbing and belaying for each other.

“ASB gave me help with everything I needed. They helped me accept my vision loss and gave me advice and support and explained how I could organize my life to best suit me. I can’t imagine my life had I not came here.” – Nicole St. John

Nicole’s taken to the sport so well she’s earned the nickname ‘Spiderwoman’ for her love of climbing, she’s completed an outdoor climb, and is even considering competition entry. “Many people would never imagine a blind or visually impaired person being a climber,” said ASB President and CEO Patricia C. Johnson. “Nicole shows the world that not only is it possible, but that it’s done right here in our community. She’s a wonderful inspiration.” Upon meeting Nicole it’s easy to notice her vivacious personality. Her laugh is contagious, her enthusiasm for life is immense, and her passion for trying new activities is inspiring. These days, Nicole said she tries “anything I can put my hands on!” She sculpts figures in ASB’s Arts & Crafts group, attends art classes at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and also participates in the FAMILY VISION CARE Pa.

are over, the shop continues to attract the carriage trade. “We are the most trusted name in money lending in Philadelphia,” said Tod Gordon, a past President of The Pennsylvania State Pawnbroker’s Association. “Now that banks are scarcely lending money anymore, our customers know they can get fair, quick loans on their collateral, without credit checks.” “Pawnshops proliferated in Philadelphia and elsewhere during the Depression, when, like today, banks were not interested in lending money,” Tod said. An article in the Philadelphia Inquirer from 1983 noted that while as many as 200 pawnshops dotted the state in the 1950s, there were only 80 by the 1980s. An exception to the rule, Carver W. Reed Co. has endured, not only surviving but also thriving. A reputation for fair, confidential treatment is key to its success. Carver W. Reed has a sterling history. Customers used to arrive by horse-drawn carriage. Later, chauffeurs idled outside in limousines while their employers were inside, obtaining private loans on necklaces and brooches. Sports stars and celebrities are among the shop’s current customers —and yes, a few have pawned Super Bowl rings there. In 1976, Philadelphia Magazine called the shop “The Bloomingdales of pawnshops. It’s where the swells go.” Everyday people are also among the clientele, ranging from eccentrics who keep their assets in jewels and coins, to small business owners needing short-term cash to make payroll in a slow month, to the athletes who pawn their ceremonial hardware. A $10,000 loan is available at $300 interest. A strict code of confidentiality protects the privacy of all customers. As Tod told the Philadelphia Inquirer in 1983, “A wife can come in and ask about a ticket she found in her husband’s pocket, and I will release no information without the customer’s approval.” Why do wealthy individuals pawn their jewelry instead of obtaining bank loans? In the words of Tod’s father Charles – as true now as when he spoke them half a century ago – “We lend money almost immediately, with proper identification and collateral, and without a credit check. A loan here is very private. And convenient.” Starting out as a summer employee, Tod swept floors and cleaned jewelry, later earning a degree in psychology from the University of Pittsburgh. His interest in human behavior is rewarded every day at work. “I can size up a person in 30 seconds – sort out the dishonest, the desperate, the genuine,” he told the Philadelphia Tribune in 1986. He sees people living on fixed incomes – wealthy trust fund matrons as well as blue collar workers on unemployment – who need a cash infusion to tide them over. As he told the

Philadelphia Inquirer in 1983, “There’s a real misconception that only desperate people come to a pawnshop. Our clients have found it is cheaper to take out a loan here for a month than it is to take the money out of their certificates of deposit and lose the interest.” A quick short-term cash loan, made on the spot, without a credit check, has broad appeal. The single largest loan ever made by the establishment was $100,000, to a jewelry store owner who put up almost his entire inventory as collateral. “On any given day, you’ll see as many suits and ties come in here as blue jeans and Tshirts,” Tod told the New York Times in 1991. One of the strangest loan requests (denied) came from a man who inquired if Tod would accept his tractor-trailer in pawn. “What am I going to do with it?” Tod said. “Put it on the second floor?” Unlike banks, pawnbrokers remain eager to lend money during economic downturns. “It’s to my advantage to lend as much as possible; the more I lend, the more interest I get,” said Tod to PITT Magazine in 1991. “There’s nowhere else in the world that will give a short-term loan of $10,000 for $300 a month. There’s nowhere else you can go with a bad credit history and get a loan. But if you have collateral and proof of ownership, there’s no such thing as a bad credit history here.” About 95% of all items are redeemed by their owners, who pay off their loans and take their gold or diamonds home again. When a client fails to redeem an item (i.e. does not pay back the loan in the time specified), the owner’s claim of ownership is forfeited. Carver W. Reed can then sell the item, or refashion the setting for more modern tastes. The store typically offers items for sale at 50 to 75 percent of their value, and a scrapbook full of “thank you” letters from delighted jewelry buyers attests to the thrill of buying gold and diamonds at below-market prices. The shop occupies a long, narrow space at Tenth and Sansom Streets, just west of Philadelphia’s Jeweler’s Row. Moviemakers scouting a Victorian bank setting would delight in Carver Reed’s building, with its barred banking windows and a backdrop of giant, century-old safes. Each safe contains dozens of compartments with catalogued treasures. Many of Carver W. Reed’s clients are loyal repeat customers. The rapport between Carver Reed and its clientele is crucial. Clients are exchanging gold and diamonds for swift, confidential loans at low interest rates. Trust is an essential part of the equation, on both sides. Take the case of the woman who started using Carver Reed in lieu of a safe deposit box after her home was burglarized. “She brought in $25,000 to $30,000 worth of jewels 10 years ago, and they’re still here,” Tod told the Philadelphia Inquirer in 1991. The woman borrowed $1,000 and has been paying $240 a year in interest ever since. For info visit www.carverwreed.com.

istoric Morgan Log House received a generous $500 grant from The Gaudy Dutch Questers for the purchase of an authentic reproduction of an original 18th century Delaware Valley armchair. “The Morgan Log House staff and Volunteers are so happy and excited to receive this generous gift from the Gaudy Dutch Questers. This has been a year and a half process, from the time they first contacted us with a desire to assist our museum, until today with the formal donation of the grant,” said Sarah DiSantis, Executive Director of The Morgan Log House. The chair purchased with this grant is a copy of the original 18th century Delaware Valley armchair that the Morgan Log House has in their collection. “We now have a true authentic copy of an original piece and we can actually use this new chair in our programs. That is something we could not do with the original for fear of damage to the piece,” said DiSantis. The manufacturer of the reproduction piece was Dave Hoffman of Perkasie, a highly skillFrom left – Donna Armstrong, Joan Faulkner, Suzanne ed carpenter who specializes in historic preservation and Macfadden of Gaudy Dutch Questers and Dave Hoffman, colonial furniture making. “This style of chair was both incarpenter of the reproduction chair. expensive and common for the period. The family who lived here in the 18th century most likely had a chair similar to this style,” said Dave Hoffman. The chair will be on display in the Sitting room of the Log House permanently.

Benedict’s call for a “new evangelization,” which includes writing for online and hard-copy local and national media outlets. Michelle Buckman, author of the young adult novels Maggie Come Lately and My Beautiful Disaster will present the keynote address on “The Wonder of Expressing Catholicism in Fiction.” “Attending this conference has been the best thing I have done for myself professionally,” Carol Bannon, author of the children’s book Handshake from Heaven, said of the 2009 conference. Her fellow writer Melanie Cameron agreed, saying she left the last conference re-energized. “I recommend [this] conference as a resource for any author (or wannabe) at any stage. You will walk away empowered!” The Catholic Writers Guild, a religious non-profit organization, sponsors both this live conference in August and an online conference in February to further its mission of promoting Catholic literature. “Our conferences are totally focused on encouraging faithful Catholics to share genuine Catholic culture and faith in their writing no matter what genre,” says CWG President Ann Margaret Lewis. “These events are integral to our mission of creating a rebirth of Catholic arts and letters.” Registration costs $85 for CWG members, $95 for nonmembers and $42 for students. There’s also a discounted combined membership. To register or for more information, go to www.catholicwritersconference.com.

Patterson’s project focuses on “Mirror to Devout People,” a 15th century devotional text written by a monk at the Carthusian monastery of Sheen, in Surrey, England, for a sister of the Bridgettine Syon Abbey in Isleworth, Middlesex. After examining a number of late 14th and early 15th century texts, Patterson hopes to complete a new edition of the “Mirror to Devout People” for the Early English Text Society. “Research incorporating original sources and manuscripts is an important aspect of the field of medieval studies,” he says. “I’m excited to be able to spend time in Cambridge consulting one of the manuscripts of the ‘Mirror to Devout People.’” The Cambridge University Library contains one of the original manuscripts of the text, and the Fellowship, combined with a summer research grant awarded by Saint Joseph’s University, will give Patterson the opportunity to work with it first-hand.

n just a few months Tyme Gallery will be 13 years old. In celebration, Tyme is calling for artists for its 13th Annual Juried Exhibition, “Inner Essence.” Tyme Gallery continues to be the only for profit gallery in Bucks, Chester, Delaware and Montgomery County to offer a juried exhibition to the general public. The gallery continues to accept 2-D media and relief work. Due to a limitation in space, sculpture, while displayed and sold in the gallery, will not be accepted for this exhibition. Paintings, drawings, photography, hand pulled and digital prints are allowed, but, no laser prints or studies. First prize is a solo exhibition. Last year there were over 300 entries, so the gallery is limiting the size of the work to permit more artists the ability to exhibit. The jurors this year are award winning artists; Steve Oliver, Paulette Bensignor, Shobha Menon and Lisa Pauciello-Rowe. If you enter all artwork must be original (no studies) and never shown before at Tyme Gallery. The artwork is accepted on Friday, July 30 and Saturday, July 31, between 10:30 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. The jurying takes place on Sunday August 1. The opening reception is on Friday, August 13 from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. with the award ceremony taking place promptly at 7:00 p.m. For a prospectus, send a SASE to Tyme Gallery at 17 W. Eagle Road, Havertown, PA 19083, call 610-853-1215, or visit www.tymegallery.com/events.htm.

ith the snip of scissors and the cutting of a giant, 12-foot bandage, Penn Medicine celebrated the grand opening of a $30 million outpatient medical center located at 100 Chesterbrook Blvd., adjacent to Routes 202 and 252 in Tredyffrin Township. Penn Medicine at Valley Forge is a 90,000-square-foot facility that contains space for 60 family medicine and specialty physicians as well as radiology services and lab/blood-draw areas. Future plans call for the building to house an ambulatory surgery center and additional clinical programs. Penn Medicine at Valley Forge is the largest suburban building project in the health system’s history. “This new center is just the latest example of how we are working to bring Penn’s highquality care and excellent physicians into the region,” says Ralph Muller, chief executive officer of the University of Pennsylvania Health System. “By doing so, we are better able to serve our patients close to where they live.” For information about Penn Medicine at Valley Forge call 610-576-7500 or 1-800-789-PENN (7366), or visit www.pennmedicine.org/valley-forge.
