Whok Who In The Kitchen Spicy Foods, Barbecue Are Favorites Of Par" ei j>ey By Aadrey C. Lodato Past Staff Writer Bill Horn, director of Partners, a program designed to pair a caring {kdult with youth headed off in the wrong direction, admits to an early interest in cooking. ! “I was always interested in help ing my mother in the kitchen,” he says. ‘'My brother and I would do.it more so than my sister. ”1 like to spice foods, to use a lot of hot sauce. When you do a meat, you have to work with it before you cook it-either marinate it or soak it in vinegar to tenderixe it. I’ve never appreciated anyone taking a steak out of the package and putting it right on the grill.” -a Hoey believes you have to cook meat slowly and baste it with sea soning for the best taste. **rm a typical male who thinks no one can make a better barbecue , --BARBECUED CHICKEN Vi c. salad til 2V4-3 lb. broiler-fryer, cutup 1* c. chopped onion y« c. chopped celery Vfc c. ketchup 1/3 c. water 2 Tbsp. lemon juice 1 Tbsp. brown sugar ■ 1 Tbsp.

Trade St. than I can," he remarks. “I don’t have a particular sauce I always use. I work with it until I think it’s right. I use a regular good hickory barbecue sauce as a base, then change the whole taste of it” His wife, Barbers, admits, “He’s very good.” The Hoey house has two grills in the backyard, and Bill enjoys using them when time and weather per mit. Most of his time, though, goes Into Partners. “Other than playii* golf, that’s where all my interest goes,” he smiles. “It’s more than Just s job.” Formerly the Mecklenburg Court Volunteers, Hoey’s program changed over to Partners in Fe bruary, 1983. Partners was begun in Denver, Colorado, in 1988, and now has seven branches, two of them in North Carolina (the other city is - SWISS STEAK % c. flour 1 tsp. salt V« tsp. pepper 2 lbs. beef round steak, 1" thick 3 Tbsp. shortening Vfc c. onion 1 (1 lb.) can tomatoes 2 Tbsp. chopped green pepper Combine flour and seasoning and pound into steak.

Makes a. servings. Y ' Raleigh). While both programs ope rate on the tame basic concept, the name recognition of Partners has helped raise money through corpo- 4 rate contributions . "What we really attempt to da/’ the director explains, Via assist Uds with changing negative attitudes to positive ones so they may become viable, productive citizens of our society." A tall order, It sounds like, but one that can be accomplished through “caring adult volunteers." Partners volunteers must make a commit ment to spend an average of three hours a week for U months as an advocate for the child. A one-to-one program, Partner* is. similar to Big Brothers-Big Sisters, except that Partners' volunteers serve more as advoates, rather than Just as Mends, although Mend ships usually develop. Hoey explains, “We advocate for the kids, whatever the need may be. For example, if there’s a problem in school, the volunteer goes to the school to try to resolve it" Youth are referred to the program by Juvenile Court, Youth Services Bureau, Department of Social Ser vices, and Charlotte-lilecUenburg School*. These children are either already involved in the criminal Justice system, or they are display ing behaviors that will lead than to the coprts, Hoey says. The majority suffer from low self esteem and have negative attitudes toward society’s rules, be adds. As an indication of the program’s success, Hoey points out that during the past year, none of the youth actively- involved hi Partners has become re-involved with the crimi nal Justice system. BUI Is almost as “at home” ia the kitchen as he |s aa the gall coarse! There ere currently 40 active match relationships here. The big gest need, as la often the case, is for more black male volunteers. Ac cording to Hoey, Partners averages about SO black boys on the waiting list. Volunteers are recruited through various means, but the most successful method is through cor porate participation. When a com pany backs Partners, company employees often volunteer their time. ■, And, for a child to be accepted into tbe Partners program, he or she must be willing to m«fa» a commit ment to try to change, says'Hoey. Youth not willing to that commitment are not accepted. BUI and Barbara Hoey have five children of their own, the youngest of whom is a freshman at Winston Salem State University. . \;, BUI belongs to Little Rock AME Zion Church. He is president erf the MetroUna Association for Volunteer Administrators, is vice president of the Charlotte Certified Development Corporation, apd was on the boerd of directors of RSVP. In his spare time, he enjoys golf and bowling. Following are a few pf BUI Hoey ’s favorite recipes, Hla kidrUke his barbecue. ‘"Iliey know it’s going to always be good,” he says.
