NorthShore Kitchens Plus Supports AHA Youth Education and Nutrition Program

June 2008 - NorthShore Kitchens Plus, Inc., of Marblehead recently made a donation to the American Heart Association, specifically earmarked toward the Youth Education, Nutrition and Exercise Program.

 “When researching the organization, the youth program was of great interest to me,” said  Dempsey, “if you can educate a child in their formative years on nutrition, exercise and food group choices, you just might make a difference for their entire lives”. 

AHA provides educational materials about nutrition and physical activity to about one-third of our nation’s elementary schools. “Obesity and diabetes in on the rise in children, this type of program has proven effective and fun for young children.  This donation will go directly toward teaching more than 1,200 children how to take control of their health,” said Abdella, Business Development Director for the American Heart Association.

Marblehead Council on Aging Tai Chi Summer Program Sponsored By NorthShore Kitchens Plus.

Marblehead Council on Aging Executive Director Pat Roberts, recently accepted a donation in support of the Tai Chi Program from Ken Dempsey of NorthShore Kitchens Plus. “When we met with Ken, we shared some the benefits and the effectiveness of the Tai Chi program,  he graciously made a commitment to sponsor the program through out the summer months and perhaps beyond,” said Roberts.  “When we review our local commitments and contributions we like to help programs already in existence, and found the Tai Chi program is an asset to the community.  Pat does a wonderful job with the many programs and a sometimes limited budget”, said Dempsey.

“The 12 week curriculum introduces the fundamental principles of Tai Chi, including proper structural alignment, relaxed and mindful movement, coordinated with breathing and imagery.  Tai Chi walking is also introduced. These movements are simple, yet powerful and proven to strengthen and increase awareness of mind and body, enhance and benefit natural flow, improve health, personal development, and self-defense.  Recent medical research has shown Tia Chi can improve many aspects of health including; balance, musculoskeletal strength and flexibility, cardio-respiratory function, immune function and emotional well being,” said instructor Regina Gibbons. Gibbons is a Licensed Acupuncturist, and has practiced Tai Chi and Qi Gong for more than 10 years.  For more information on these and other COA programs call 781-631-6737.

Designer returns from Chicago Show with latest designs, materials and technology.

Our staff designer Ronna Duffy has just returned from the National Kitchen and Bath Show "KBIS" where all the newest products are annually introduced. 

Ronna is quoted in the current issue (April, 2008) of Kitchen and Bath Business Magazine on page 44, "Nature's Best...Need warmth? 

Try a wood countertop for a change..."   "Wood countertops create an attractive contrast and add warmth to the kitchen, which isn't always possible with stone," said designer Ronna Duffy, of North Shore Kitchens Plus, Inc. in Marblehead, MA.  "They give the kitchen a furniture look by adding character, detail and variety, and there’s a wider range of species available today and eco-friendly materials such as bamboo gaining ground...it’s also durable.   Bamboo has a very unusual look and unique texture," said Duffy.
