uring the school year the needy children of
Hackettstown receive food from school based pro-
grams. In the summer months, these strapped fam-
ilies must now absorb the additional food costs into their
already strained budgets. Last years Summer Backpack
Program provided large bags of kid-friendly, healthy and
fresh food every two weeks to over 250 children. This year,
it is expected that this number will increase.
St. James Episcopal Church will be marching in the
Memorial Day parade collecting jars of peanut butter or
donations for the 2013 Summer Backpack program. This
program provides food to the hungry children of the greater
Hackettstown area and provides relief for family food budg-
ets in homes where unemployment, underemployment or
disability impact on the food needs of children. Every year
United Way of Northern New Jersey is a dedicated sponsor
of this Summer Backpack program.
If you are going to the parade please remember to bring
a chair and sunblock for you, and a jar of peanut butter for
a needy child. If you miss us in the parade, we have a
donation bucket on the front porch of the Mitcham House at
214 Washington Street.
To volunteer for the Backpack program this summer,
please call 908 852 3968. For more information about this
program or any of St. James other outreach ministries
please visit our web or Facebook sites.

A
s residents of Allamuchy Township
and tourists stroll up the drive
toward The Hall, the large brown
door, resembling the entrance to a medieval
castle, looms in the distance, with a white
marble family crest encrusted in the brick
faade above the door. Into the marble is
inscribed, Nec Sorte; Nec Fato.
Translated from the Latin, as neither by
fate nor by chance, only evoke more
curiosity about this magnificent and stately
structure and the people who lived here.
Construction on The Hall began in 1903 and
was occupied by the Rutherfurds in 1905.
The property was gifted to the Congregation
of the Daughters of Divine Charity by the
family and the adjacent infirmary, now ren-
ovated into a school, was occupied by the
Sisters in 1954. Periodically, both the
Rutherfurds and the Sisters visit the proper-
ty and the Rutherfurds remain a contribut-
ing factor. The Rutherfurd family has a
unique place in history and certainly tomes
have been written about them. Envision
FDR dinning in the palatial room overlook-
ing the lake and at the encircling state park.
The Barons of New York and European
Royalty were frequent visitors to this gem
in the middle of no where. The whole man-
sion is history! Now, fortunately,
Rutherfurd Hall and Mountain Villa School
are the property of the Allamuchy Board of
Education because they, along with former
Superintendent, Dr. Tim Frederiks and the
Key Communicator Committee visualized
the potential in the purchase of the proper-
ty to resolve school needs for the foresee-
able future and preserve a legacy for future
generations. In essence, the residents of
Allamuchy, are property owners and are
determined to bring this project to fruition.
It was interesting to see the reaction of
the residents as they approached the build-
ing for the first time. Some walked on the
great lawn, viewing the beautiful setting of
the lake and watching the two cylindrical
turbines on the lawn, quietly, generating
electricity. Upon entering the Mansion,
there was a look of awe at the sight of the
high crafted ceilings, woodwork and the
marble fireplaces in each room. The stair-
way has the elegance of a Broadway pro-
duction and the Romanesque columns are of
another century. More than one visitor stat-
ed, I could live in one room. During the
course of two days, approximately 600 vis-
ited The Hall.
Rutherfurd Hall is now on the National
and State Historical Directory. Some grants
have been received to revitalize the entire
Mansion and there are many events on web-
site detailing fund raising programs.
Juggling four different events in one place
during the course of days, takes a great deal
of talent and dedication. Amy Hufnagel, Art
and Program Director and Laurie Rapisardi
are, definitely, two such persons, and
always in the background, is former
Superintendent, Dr. Tim Fredriks and the
Board of Education. Likewise. Kudos to the
Friends of Rutherfurd Hall Committee for
their continued dedication to the renovation
of this grand structure.
So, are you looking for a constructive
project? Are you somewhat of a visionary
and history buff? Or, are you simply curious
about this historic mansion in your midst?
The Committee meets every first Thursday
of the month, 7:00, at Rutherfurd Hall on
Route 517 before the Route 80 entrance.
For further information, log on to
www.rutherfurdhall.org for events and pro-
grams or phone Laurie or Amy at 908-684-

scenic property, is open to the general pub-
lic each Wednesday from 1:00 to 4:00pm.

A
ll is going well in Hackettstown, as the police
department continually does an excellent job to
keep the neighborhood safe, and the community
enjoys its most successful spring festival ever.
In a phone interview last week, Sgt. Darren Tynan said
police are constantly working hard to keep the community
safe.
"We all come here to do our job - to protect and serve,"
Tynan said.
He added that officers work hard to investigate thefts
and burglaries, and they do their best to "bring them to jus-
tice."
Officers also work to do their best to retrieve stolen
items. As always, police offer information on their website
http://www.hackettstownpd.net/, and also ask for the pub-
lic's help with respect to any crime tips. The Hackettstown
Police Department Facebook page is also an essential place
to look for information.
Police are always working to "serve and protect the pub-
lic and serve and protect Hackettstown," Sgt. Tynan said.
If residents have not yet spent much time on the
Hackettstown Police Department Facebook page, they may
be missing some important updates and information.
Police Department officials make entires on this
Facebook page often, and residents can obtain important
police news, and even warnings regarding any emergency
situations or situations of concern, as they arise. This valu-
able news can help by giving news on emergencies, power
outtages, and construction projects, for instance.
Residents can all find out about news items immediate-
ly, and have many questions answered by way of these
news items posted by Hackettstown Police Department. If
you often shy away from technology, you may want to
make an exception and use Facebook for the sake of gath-
ering important news.
Updates on traffic and construction projects are often
given on the Hackettstown Police Department Facebook
page, and in addition, the department likely needs the pub-
lic's help once in a while if they have information leading to
any arrests and burglaries. Police departments in several
area towns also certainly offer advice and safety tips by way
of Facebook to keep your home and motor vehicles safe, as
well as the community in general.
So, for these reasons, Facebook is often an excellent
place for community updates and finding out about success-
es of the police department.
The police department reminds the community that they,
of course, do accept crime tips. On the Hackettstown Police
Department website, http://www.hackettstownpd.net/ click
on Crime Tips at the right hand side of the screen.
You will be prompted to fill out information in the
blanks listed for your name, address, phone number, email,
and comments: "Do you have information about suspicious
activity in Hackettstown? Fill out the form below. You may
remain anonymous, however it is to the benefit of the inves-
tigation if we have someone to contact regarding a crime
tip. All information will be kept confidential."
Photos of brand new pedestrian signs are also posted on
facebook. They were donated by "Me to You
Consignments," and police noted that they are working on
getting more signs to put up in other areas of the town.
These skinny yellow signs are propped up securely in a
small, bolted-down, sturdy holdster right in between the
double yellow lines on the street.
Also, the Hackettstown Police Department is enforcing
and educating the public regarding the importance of wear-
ing seatblets by being part of the nationwide "Click it or
Ticket" program between May 20 and June 2.
During the 2012 Click it or Ticket campaign, 425
police agencies participated in the two-week initiative. As a
result of the effort, law enforcement officers issued 29,307
seat belt citations, 4,951 speeding summonses and made
861 drunk driving arrests.
In addition to this, on the police department website, res-
idents may want to look into "News and Press Releases" to
find out about how police are "utilizing a new communica-
tions service."
The police department is getting residents involved with
the Nixle Community Information Service - which, once
residents sign up, will allow them to receive instant text
message alerts or email alerts from the police department.
This will allow residents to receive important information
and also updates during emergency situations.
In other Hackettstown news, Warren County Chamber of
Commerce President and CEO James Graham, said the
recent spring festival "will go down in the history books" as
a most successful event.
Graham said "the weather was absolutely radiant," and
the festival was a success on many levels. He said it was a
success from an implementation standpoint, it was a finan-

O
n Saturday, May 25th, the Morris County Parks
Commission and Fosterfields Living Historical
Farm will present "Civil War Remembrances", a
special event on the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War.
The location is truly appropriate because of its direct con-
nection to this momentous time in Americas history.
General Joseph Warren Revere, grandson of Paul
Revere, purchased the property in the mid-1800s and built
the impressive Gothic Revival home, The Willows.
Charles Foster purchased the farm in 1881, changing its
name to Fosterfields.
Early in the Civil War, Revere was appointed colonel of
the 7th New Jersey Volunteer Infantry. His courage and per-
formance through many battles had him quickly moving up
the ranks. However, the Battle of Chancellorsville, Virginia
in 1863 became Reveres most personally challenging time
in his distinctive military career. Regrouping his men dur-
ing the chaos of battle lead some to believe he was retreat-
ing, which resulted in a court-martial. Eventually President
Lincoln overturned the ruling, but General Revere turned in
his resignation.
Historian, actor and author William Chemerka will be
portraying General Revere in the Willows, along with his
wife Debbie as Mrs. Rosanna Revere. He will share with
the public his experiences at Chancellorsville along with his
undeserved court-martial. Bills latest book is about the
Willows most celebrated inhabitant, titled General Joseph
Warren Revere; the Gothic Saga of Paul Reveres
Grandson.
In the Visitor Center, author and historian Robert Jones
will present an impressive display of original Civil War arti-
facts and memorabilia. The extensive exhibit covers just
about everything related to the Civil War, but there is a
strong emphasis on the personal side of the soldier what
he carried, brought from home, or purchased from the camp
sutler.
Mr. Jones will also have available and will be signing his
Civil War related books. Recently he completed his fourth
book Civil War Artillery A Pictorial Introduction.
Previous to that he has published The Civil War Canteen
Second Edition and Battle of Gettysburg The Relics,
Artifacts & Souvenirs. Although thousands of books have
been written on Gettysburg, he was the first to have pub-
lished an in-depth study with over 750 photographs on the
rare battlefield relics and the unique souvenirs associated
with the famous event.
Anxious to get todays youth more involved in American
History, Robert published his first childrens book titled
Children at the Battle of Gettysburg Their Unforgettable
Summer. The story itself is fictional, but based on actual
events just prior to and through the famous 1863
Pennsylvania battle. It lets children learn about Gettysburg
and the Civil War in a fun and exciting way without even
realizing it. The gory details of war were purposely avoid-
ed and the kids today can put themselves directly in the

middle of what was a calamitous experience by children
such as them 150 years ago.
This event is in conjunction with the 150th Anniversary
of the Civil War and it is an opportunity for both young and
old to experience and better understand the hardships and
sacrifices which were made during the most horrendous
time in our nations early beginning. Bob Jones and Bill
Chemerka are both members of the 33rd New Jersey
Volunteer Infantry and have been active in promoting Civil
War history throughout New Jersey for over 20 years.
Fosterfields is also a working farm with a variety of ani-
mals - using the tools, techniques and materials of the 19th
century. The event is on Saturday, May 25th and "Mr. and
Mrs. Revere" will be at their front door to welcome all from
1:00 3:30. Mr. Jones will be in the Visitors Center the
entire day from 10:00 5:00 to discuss the Civil War, sign
books, and explain the artifacts on display. Fosterfields is
located at 73 Kahdena Rd., Morristown, NJ (973) 326-7645

cial success, and it was a success in terms of
"the number of happy faces" of attendees.
Graham added that Mars North America
even ran out of free candy to give out
because of the overwhelming number of
attendees at the event. He said there was
likely an excess of 20,000 people at the
spring festival.
This is quite a gathering, and it shows
that the Hackettstown community is strong,
and can have great success at holding a
prosperous and fun event.
Also, the Moore Street Open-Air Market
will be starting on Saturday June 1, and will
be held each Saturday from 9 am -2 pm.
Business Improvement District Director
Jim Sheldon said there will be 15 or so ven-
dors each week.
Sheldon said he is looking forward to a
great event each week, and added that he is
working on business recruitment in general
for the town, but could not offer any details
at the current time.

Breakthrough Treatment Now Available In Long Valley
Imagine thirty to forty years ago if you were told that lasers
would replace scalpels in surgery or that robotic instruments
would build cars; you may not have believed it. By the same
token would you believe that chiropractic treatments could be
performed using a special hand-held instrument developed by
NASA scientists; all while you were sitting in an upright posi-
tion without turning or twisting movements?
Advances in computers and engineering technologies have
been able to uniquely blend with chiropractic in order to both
analyze and treat the human body in such a way that was never
before realized.
According to Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, This new form of com-
puterized treatment is so gentle and effective, that it amazes
even the most skeptical patients. Its called the ProAdjuster and
is the latest, state-of-the-art technology in existence today, and
the only one in the Long Valley area
The ProAdjuster can safely and gently analyze and treat the
spine and other joints to remove the nerve impingement that is
often the cause of pains in the low back, neck, shoulder and else-
where in the body. It also works on a variety of muscular con-
ditions to loosen tight muscles with ease and comfort. Many
patients say that its like getting a mini-massage.
It can also help increase the amount of motion in almost any
joint. Even patients with knee, hip and foot problems such as
plantar fasciitis are being helped. It is also covered by most in-
surance companies including medicare.
Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, the secret to the ProAdjuster lies in
its advanced piezoelectric sensor that is able to detect the slight-
est amount of restriction in a joint and then deliver an extremely
precise adjustment. He says that Even though traditional
forms of adjusting also work, people are drawn to this new tech-
nique because of how gentle it is and does not in-
volve any twisting, especially in the neck. Many
people love getting adjusted with traditional man-
ual techniques, all of which are safe and effective,
but there are a large number of people who never
get to experience the amazing benefits of chiro-
practic because they are scared to have their
spines adjusted in that way, says Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, Now,
there is no longer a reason for anyone to be weary. The
ProAdjuster is perfect for anyone who has been thinking
about going to a chiropractor, but hasnt yet made that deci-
sion. Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, wants everyone to be able to ex-
perience these same benefits and if you have any of the
following conditions, the ProAdjuster may be the answer
youve been looking for
Low back discomfort Fibromyalgia
Sciatic nerve pain * Planter Fascitis

and extremely gentle. There is no guesswork, and its safe for
individuals of all ages. Call our office today and mention this

hadow of Love,
the second sus-
pense novel by for-
mer PV resident, Sam
Faiello( pen name, Samuel
Jay) has received critical
acclaim from a member of
the National Critics Circle.
The novel is set in a gated
community called,
Serenity Hills. Founding
member, Alan Caruba,
wrote, I guarantee that
once you begin to read this
novel, you wont put it
down until the last page. ( It
is) a fast- paced story with
realistic dialogue(and) a
complex life woven into an
intricate plot. This novel is
the sequel to Shadow of
Guilt which was reviewed
by Writers Digest: Move
over John Grisham. Samuel
Jay is a masterful storyteller
who has created compelling
characters that leap off the
page in a suspenseful page-
turner.
Long before it was fash-
ionable, Sam and his wife,
Joan, were involved in eco-
logical issues. His novels
reflect an intrinsic desire to
protect the environment.
Sam, with the assistance of
many residents, was instru-
mental in maintaining and
preserving the bucolic set-
ting of this area. They now
reside in nearby Hunterdon
County. In 2002 he sold his
PR firm to become presi-
dent of a family-owned
water utility founded by his
father, Carmine. While
involved in public relations,
he successfully handled
major public issue cam-
paigns as his firm was
retained by technology-

lion to build Liberty Science
Center. He has twice won

Prom Up Do
by Elsie Walker
The calendar may say that summer
comes a month later, but in Hackettstown,
summer starts on May 26th. Just ask Butch
Patrick (aka Eddie Munster) of the 1960s
TV show, The Munsters. Actor Patrick will
be on hand as part of this years
Hackettstowns Memorial Motor Madness.
A tradition for years, this fundraising car
show, benefiting the Joan Knechel Cancer
Center at Hackettstown Regional Medical
Center and other organizations, will be held
on May 26th from 9am to 3pm at Mars
Chocolate on High Street. The admission
fee for spectators is $5 for age 5 and up; the
entry fee for exhibitors who have not pre-
registered is $30 per vehicle. The event is
held rain or shine; there is no rain date. No
pets or alcohol are permitted on grounds.
The event is chaired by Hackettstown
Rotary Club President, Bob Eberle, owner
of Panther Valley Pharmacy in Allamuchy.
He has planned almost every detail sin-
gle-handedly, determined to make this our
biggest and most successful car show ever.
And he means ever, shared Kevin Guyette.
Guyette, another Rotary Club member, is
volunteer coordinator.
Adding to the nostalgic feeling already
set by cars of many eras, will be Patrick,
who will be on hand all day and sign auto-
graphs (for a fee).
Memorial Motor Madness is sponsored
by The Hackettstown Rotary Club, with
major support from MARS Chocolate,
Hackettstown Hyundai, Johnson Dodge
Chrysler Jeep Ram, Route 46 Auto, Smith
Motors, Warren County Community
College, and Centenary College. Also, a
number of individuals and local businesses
are sponsoring different Class Sections for
the vehicles.
Guyette shared that 500 or more cars can
be expected if the weather is good. There
are 19 judging classes, for everything from
antiques to foreign cars to Monster and mini
trucks to Camaros and Firebirds and more.
Of course, what would an event like this
be without food and vendors selling wares?
Guyette shared that a number of specially
food and other vendors are expected. That
includes Down to the Bone BBQ, a new
restaurant on Lake Lackawanna in
Stanhope, which will offer pulled-pork
sandwiches and other BBQ goodies.
An important part of the 19 year annual
event is Doc South. Guyette shared that
Doc South will be spinning the oldies all
day long, with a special moment of silence
for the countrys active and veteran service
members and playing of The National
Anthem at noon. He also will be collecting
donations of calling cards, and cash to pur-
chase calling cards, for service members
stationed overseas, so that they can stay in
touch with loved ones.
While attendees will enjoy the show, the
proceeds from the events will take on a
more serious tone, helping others in impor-
tant ways. Guyette noted that a majority of
the proceeds realized by the event are desig-
nated to the Joan Knechel Cancer Center at
Hackettstown Regional Medical Center.
This state of the art center provides the
best in cancer treatment practically in our
backyard. For patients who formerly had to

Tell Them You Saw It In The Hackettstown News, May 2013, Page 17
travel to New York City, Livingston, or event Morristown
for chemo and other treatment, having the center so close to
home eases both pain and anxiety for many, said Guyette.
The event also benefits a number of other Rotary inter-
ests, including The Arc, the NORWESCAP Food Bank, Big
Brothers/Big Sisters, the Hackettstown Area Family Relief
Fund, Camp Merry Heart and Camp Warren, to name just a
few. Our Rotary Club also has an international project in St.
Kitts in which we partner with Hackettstown Regional
Medical Center to deliver state of the art medical equipment
and supplies to the hospital on that island. MARS also has
been part of that success by donating M&Ms for patients
and hospital personnel in St. Kitts, all of whom are over-
joyed to receive their favorite candy! Guyette noted.
Mars Chocolates presence is also an important part of
the Memorial Motor Madness experience as spectators
looks at the car and catch images of the popular Red,
Peanut, Miss Green, and Ms. Brown M&Ms gracing the
area.
The location is such an asset to the car show because
the grounds are spacious and beautifully kept. Theres tons
of room for cars and vendors, and MARS associates are
extraordinarily friendly, helpful, and welcoming. They set
the tone for a smooth-running event thats also a lot of fun
for everyone. MARS Chocolate is the largest manufactur-
ing presence in Warren County, and its commitment to its
employees many of whom live in the area and to the
nonprofits that make Warren County a great place to live
and work - is huge. That a company of this size and stature
recognizes and embraces this project of the Rotary Club and
has made a commitment to its continued success says good
things about MARS and Rotary alike, shared Guyette.
While the show is a fun, family event, the day of the
show is a long one for the Rotarians who are involved.
However, Guyette notes that the company and the causes
are worth it.
First, this event gives me a chance to spend the day with
some of the best people I know the members of the
Hackettstown Rotary Club. It means a perfect partnership
between industry and community to support a medical cen-
ter that provides the best in care and comfort to patients and
families. And it means a chance to let our guests know what
Rotary is all about: Service Above Self and a commitment
to world peace and understanding through service to oth-
ers, she said.
It also means 26 exhausted Rotarians at the end of the
day, but we all agree its worth it! she added.
The Hackettstown Rotary must be doing something right
with Memorial Motor Madness. It has been asked to assist
the Paramus Rotary Club in setting up its very first car show
in August. Guyette said her club members looks forward to
being there with the Paramus Rotary Club, and helping it
in any way they can.

T
he cat population in Hackettstown is
more controlled these days since the
Pet Adoption League has been
involved in Trap Neuter Release Program
(TNR).
There are some farms, however, and
atleast one homeowner nearby that is strug-
gling with stray cats repopulating the area.
Volunteers of the PAL have been trying to
control the situation by trapping, neutering
and releasing feral cats to their environ-
ment, and adopting out the kittens, friendly
cats or those who were abandoned.
Weve improved the cat population
greatly in Allamuchy and Panther Valley,
says Kathy Hurley of Belvidere, dog coor-
dinator and board member of the Pet
Adoption League of Hackettstown. There
are so many farms in Allamuchy. People
believe they can dump a cat on the farm that
they dont want. Cats reproduce so quickly.
Weve made quite a difference right there.
Established in 1937, PAL is a non-profit,
volunteer, animal rescue organization serv-
ing Northwest NJ. It has always been asso-
ciated with the dog pound in Allamuchy,
says Hurley, and operates as a no-kill rescue
group rather than a shelter. Most of the ani-
mals are rescued from pounds.
After stray animals are put in holding for
seven days, PAL takes those animals that
were not claimed, gets them vaccinated,
spayed and neutered and then adopted out.
Of those animals, 90 percent are cats and
dogs.
Hurley says she found a home for a hen
once, as well as homes for four rabbits.
PAL relies on TNR to control the cat
population in that area. PAL approached the
board of Panther Valley in 2005, when 90
percent of the stray cats were coming from
the gated community, says Hurley.
The population was out of control,
says Hurley. Most of those cats were not
spayed or neutered. The Panther Valley
board, however, was not receptive to TNR
at that time.
There was a lot of denial by the board,
says Hurley. They didnt think we had a
problem, but we knew we did.
PAL then presented a proposal to the
Allamuchy Board for TNR approval in
2008. It was at that meeting that a member
of the board of the Crest, which is part of
Panther Valley, was interested in PALs pro-
posal and agreed to work together, explains
Hurley.
It was enough to get our foot in and take
care of the problem itself, says Hurley.
We knew we had to stop the cycle. The
ACO (animal control officer) told us cats
were coming from Panther Valley; 95 per-
cent were coming directly from there.
PAL Seeks Homes For Animals, More Volunteers
PAL has been negotiating with some
farmers in the area, trying to set up a feed-
ing station to try to capture the feral cats and
then release them back after they are spayed
and neutered.
Hurley says, 90 percent of cats that we
trap we adopt; they end up being house cats.
The vast majority were abandoned cats,
she says, rather than feral.
PAL traps approximately 60 cats per
year. Out of those cats, four are returned and
94 percent are adopted out. Hurley is unsure
how many cats are wandering throughout
the area.
It does maintain one station where we
regularly feed the homeless cats in
Allamuchy, but we are trapping in many
locations based on calls coming into PAL
notifying us of homeless cats, says Hurley.
Currently 30 cats are awaiting adoption
in foster homes and the PAL adoption cen-
ter.
As non-paid volunteers, Hurley says
PAL is always looking for people to help
with TNR.
We have to go everyday to feed the cats
at the feeding stations, says Hurley.
More volunteers are needed for fundrais-

ing, training animals, caring for cats, baking
for bake sales, writing for publicity, as well
as donations.
PAL also offers advice to pet owners;
post pets in need of a home; visit schools to
talk to children, as well as boy scouts and
girl scouts on safe techniques on approach-
ing dogs and cats and how to safely handle
them.
Since PAL has no facility of its own, it
utilizes Pet Smart in Mt. Olive to feature its
dogs and cats awaiting adoption.
With kitten season approaching, PAL has
identified 10 volunteers who foster the kit-
tens until they can be adopted out.
PAL takes all dogs in their care to All
Paws in Hackettstown to get tested for heart
worm and lime disease; get spayed,
neutered and vaccinated; receive dentistry;
and treated for any illness or injury.
Dogs have come in with broken legs,
diseases such as lime, says Hurly. They are
given antibiotics. Cats too are given med-
ication for viruses.
We believe animals should be fully vet-
ted, say Hurley, and new pet owners made
aware of any illness.
PAL hosts adoption days for cats every
Saturday at Pet Smart in Mt. Olive from 12
p.m. to 3 p.m. Since dogs get adopted so
quickly, adoption days are less frequent, she
says. Three dogs are in need of homes cur-
rently.
The adoption fee, which includes full
medical care, is $125 for cats and $200 for
dogs.
Go to www.palpets.org for more infor-
mation on adoption days, and pictures of
dogs and cats seeking a home.
PAL relies strictly on donations and
fundraisers to keep the organization going,
like the pasta dinner/tricky tray recently
held on May 3.
Its big fundraiser- PAL Pets Festival- is
set for June 8 at Hasting Square, with an
adoption day for kittens, sale items, and a
groomer on site - Cortneys Grooming
Parlor, http://www.cortneysgrooming.
com- to talk about techniques, clip nails and
check ears.
PAL has a general meeting in the
Hackettstown Community Center on Main
Street the second Thursday of every month
at 6:45pm. Anyone interested is welcome
to join.
We want people to realize that weve
been in Hackettstown for decades, says
Hurley. We are out there saving dogs and
cats that are abandoned and need our help.

tion; or go to the PAL facebook page at The

T
hough not necessarily common,
migraine headaches can affect chil-
dren as well as adults. One study
found that by age 15, 5 percent of all chil-
dren and adolescents had suffered from
migraine headaches, while 15 percent had
experienced tension headaches. Children
often suffer from headaches because of a
cold, fever, illness or infection, including
infections of the throat and ears. Sinusitis
also may cause a child to suffer from
headaches. Ideas as to what causes a
migraine headache have changed over the
years. Scientists long linked a migraine
headache to the dilating and narrowing of
blood vessels on the surface of the brain.
But now scientists suspect a genetic link
could be behind migraine headaches. An
estimated 70 percent of children and adoles-
cents who have migraines have an immedi-
ate family member who also suffers from
migraines or did as a child. Such youngsters
also may be inheriting a tendency to be
affected by migraine headache triggers like
bright lights, changesin the weather and
fatigue. Kids who spend too much time in
the sun or are too physically active may also
be susceptible to migraine headaches.

ack in 1970, the Autosport Automotive Group was
founded by Gerald A. Lustig. His first store was a
Fiat dealership in Bound Brook, NJ. Over the years,
the group famous for its no pressure approach to car sales,
expanded to over 14 franchises, both domestic and import.
President Gerald A. Lustig states "An opportunity came
along for us to get back in the Fiat business after all of these
years. I have always thought their cars were pretty trick and
definitely a lot of fun to drive. I actually raced a few Fiats
in the SCCA over the years. We're excited to be the exclu-
sive Fiat dealer in the Morris County Area. Fiat of Morris
County, here on Route 53 in Denville is a new Fiat studio
and offers a unique vehicle with some incredible attributes."
Sales Manager Mike Olsen really appreciates the her-
itage and future of this unique marque and knows why it
should be a big success in this area. "I am so happy to be
part of the Autosport Automotive Group. It's exciting to be
part of a dealer group with owners that are as excited about
the brand as I am. This new studio location, right in the
middle of Denville, NJ is going to offer the community a
great car and incredible car buying experience."
Autosport Automotive Group VP Steven Lustig has a
great appreciation for the Fiat brand from both a marketing
perspective and the driving experience. When I first started
seeing the commercials and marketing materials for the Fiat
brand I said to myself, "Now there's a brand with a clear
vision and a brand that gets it. Mike asked me if I would
drive the Fiat Abarth Cabrio around a bit so we could get a
little exposure. What I didn't expect was the smile that car
put on my face the first time I took it out. In fact, I can't help
Fiat from Italy to Denville!
but smile still every time I drive it. Now I just have to make
sure my wife doesn't get to the garage before me in the
morning. The very emotion I felt driving the car was the
catalyst for our 'Rediscover' campaign."
Fiat of Morris County offers some incredible amenities.
Every new and pre-owned vehicle comes with an exclusive
complimentary maintenance program and for a limited
time, all new Fiats are being delivered with a free iPad,
courtesy of Fiat of Morris County. Steven Lustig says "We
have a great facility with an incredible team. These cars are
so much fun to drive! We invite everyone to come down,
have an espresso with us, and take one for a test drive and
try not to smile".

very June, The West Side Dance
Center holds its annual Spring
Showcase. However this year,
inspired by the fact that the parts of New
Jersey are still recovering from Hurricane
Sandy, the Randolph-based studio is work-
ing to turn their June 15th recital into an
opportunity to raise needed funds for the
Sandy New Jersey Relief Fund. West Side
Dance Center will hold this years showcase
on Saturday, June 15 at Morristown-Beard
School in Morristown. There are three per-
formances, at 1:00, 4:00 and 7:00 pm.
According to studio director Dale Julian-
Bierce, West Side Dance Center teachers,
parents, and Performing Troupe students are
all working together on activities to raise
money for the relief effort, while also devel-
oping the recital around a Jersey Strong
theme. The recital will feature a tricky-tray
and raffles. Members of the audience can
also send Sandy Grams with candy and
personal messages to performers. All
money raised will be donated to the relief
fund, started and chaired by NJ First Lady
Mary Pat Christie to ensure long-term aid to
the local non-profit organizations that
directly assist victims and communities
with rebuilding.
Hurricane Sandy has affected so many
of us here at the studio that it seemed appro-
priate to continue to focus our attention on
helping restore our beloved Jersey Shore
and its residence says Dale.
Tickets to the event are available for
advance purchase at the West Side Dance
Center studio, 3 Middlebury Boulevard in
Randolph (in the Aspen Business Park) now

cating for issues like adoption reform, vol-
unteerism, disability awareness, empower-
ing todays youth through Arts education
and more. While they have different inter-
ests and talents, such as singing and danc-
ing, they all have one thing in common: the
Miss America pageant system helped each
one to become the person she is. A key part
of the pageant system is the scholarships
awarded.
On June 1st at noon , a luncheon and
talent show fundraiser, will be held at the
Stanhope United Methodist Church at #2
Route 183 in Netcong. Performing dance
(hula, lyrical, jazz, and tap) and singing,
plus sharing their platforms will be Chu,
Moore, Kaler-Jones, Cocozza plus Nicole
Washington and Carissa Palumbo. All of
them will be competing in the upcoming
Miss New Jersey pageant. The luncheon
will include homemade sandwiches, salads,
desserts, and beverages. The fundraiser will
benefit the church and its ministries and the
North Jersey Pageant Scholarship Fund.
Tickets are $10. For tickets and directions
contact Kerry Milone-Clapp at 973-347-
4579, Sharon Rosequist at 973-527-4927 or
Terry Karns at 973-347-0873
Joining Miss New Jersey contestants in
the show will be Miss Libertys
Outstanding Teen, Samantha Rizzuto from
Long Valley, a classical vocalist. Besides
performing, she will talk on her platform:
STEM.
My platform is Balancing the
Equation which promotes STEM (Science,
Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)
Education in elementary and middle school
students. I started an organization called
STEM-CAM which allows me to work with
younger students to complete hands-on
STEM lessons.
I realized how many people shy away
from STEM subjects in school. This is
detrimental to our countys economy and
global security. STEM careers are increas-
ing at a faster rate than other professions,
yet there are less people pursuing these
careers. STEM careers keep our country
competitive with innovations, inventions,
technological developments and military
resources. The only way to keep STEM jobs
in our county is by building interest in these
fields with beginning with raising interest in
students at a younger age, shared Rizzuto.
Cierra Kaler-Jones of Galloway, Miss
Cape Shores, will be performing a self-cho-
reographed lyrical dance- "I Believe". She
L - R Krysten Moore, Miss Gateway; Andi Cocozza, Miss Northern Lakes; and Nicole Washington,
Miss Tri-County will perform at the fundraiser.

much more: life-long friendships, the abili-
ty to command any interview, a love for
myself incomparable to any others', and the
realization of my own voice. Without the
networking opportunities and the doors that
being a local titleholder opens, I would have
never been able to take my experience and
share it with others; I would never have
been able to visualize myself as a leader and
as a role model, said Kaler-Jones.
A recent University of Massachusetts
Amherst graduate with a degree in
Computer and Electrical Engineering,
Krysten Moore of Mahwah, Miss Gateway,
credits the public speaking skills she gained
from competing in the pageant system with
her receiving the honor of being the student
commencement speaker at her graduation.
Sharon Rosequist of Netcong, a member
of the Stanhope United Methodist Church
and a regional pageant director, echoed
Moores feelings They [the contestants]
are interviewed by a panel of judges along
over the years, and we as directors have
mock interview sessions to assist them with
Miss NJ Contestants...
continued from front page
interview skills. These interview skills are
an asset to them throughout their lives.
Moore, who will do a tap dance number
at the talent show fundraiser, also shared
what made her complete in the pageant sys-
tem. Miss America has always embodied
everything I believed. The four points of the
crown depicting style, scholarship, success
and service are the same traits that comprise
the foundation of my life. Being an engi-
neer, I appreciate that Miss America has
adopted the STEM program, as it allows
women to be intelligent nerds while main-
taining a relatable image, she said.
Another performer at the upcoming pro-
gram is Miss Monmouth, Ellen Chu of Park
Ridge. Her platform is disability aware-
ness, an issue that hits close to home. Chu
has congenital hearing loss.
When asked what competing in the pag-
eants has given her, Chu, who will do a
dance number in the show, said:
Confidence, humility, and the ability to
finally feel comfortable in my own skin.
Pageants have motivated me to defy stereo-
typical stigmas associated [with her disabil-
ity], to put my best foot forward each and
every day, and to make myself visibly suc-
cessful through the things I do.
Terry Karns of Stanhope, a regional pag-
eant director, know what Chu means. He
has seen first- hand how the pageants help
young women evolve. Hes been involved
in the pageant system off and on for 20
years. He appreciates what the pageant
does for people like his daughter (who used
to compete). I saw what the pageant did for
her self- image and financially to help with
her Master's degree
Performing, You Cant Take That Away
from Me:, will be Miss Northern Lakes,
Andi Cocozza, of Ocean City. Her pageant
platform is promoting volunteerism.
I have been a volunteer since I was a lit-
tle girl, and community service has always
been an important part of my life, Cocozza
said.
Kerry Milone-Clapp of Netcong, is the
new director for Miss Northern Lakes pag-
eant. Although new, she already knows a
great deal about the pageant system ( her
mother, Sharon Rosequist is another pag-
eant director) and how much the funds
raised for scholarships will mean. She
reflected on that:
The scholarships we provide for the
girls, are so important. With all of the stress
to continue their education and all of the
student debt that these young ladies all
carry, even the little bit that we are able to
provide to them can be a huge help. Even if
it only pays for books, it is at least one less
thing for them to stress over. They are all
such bright and talented individuals, I am
very honored that I am able to be a part of
the organization.

O
livia Rubenstein of Boonton
Township, NJ, was about to cele-
brate her Bat Mitzvah and wanted
to do something special to help homeless
dogs in need. Olivia is a Junior Volunteer
with Eleventh Hour Rescue so she naturally
decided to make that organization her spe-
cial cause. Instead of gifts, she asked for
donations to Eleventh Hour Rescue of
Rockaway, NJ, and her family and friends
responded in a very generous manner.
Olivia collected many donations of sup-
plies such as high quality food products,
collars, leashes, and toys. Everything that
the dogs need while waiting to be adopted
in to their forever homes. Olivia herself
made a substantial monetary contribution.
In total, a donation of $1,300 was collected
in addition to the supplies. The money will
be used to purchase adopt me bandanas,
and also used to help offset medical costs as
well as other expenses needed to save the
lives of innocent dogs in need.
The Rubenstein Family, active members
of Temple Beth Am in Parsippany, NJ, are
committed to helping dogs in need; they
have previously adopted a dog from
Eleventh Hour Rescue. His name is
Paragon and he is a Plott Hound. In addi-
tion they currently participate in the Dog
Foster Family program as well.
Eleventh Hour Rescue wishes to sincere-
ly thank Olivia and her family for their
efforts and contributions to this cause.
ABOUT ELEVENTH HOUR RESCUE
Eleventh Hour Rescue is a fully regis-
tered 501C(3), nonprofit, 100% no-kill, vol-
unteer based organization dedicated to sav-
ing the lives of innocent dogs and cats on
death row. These are pets that deserve love
and a place to live where they are honored
and cared for. No dog or cat deserves to die
simply because it does not have a home.
Many of them are rescued at their Eleventh
Hour--when they are scheduled to be put to
death by shelters that can no longer care for
them.
We give the dogs and cats all the medical
attention they require, a place to live, and
through our extensive adoption services, a
second chance at a happy and fulfilled life.
We are affiliated with many like-minded
animal groups throughout the United States.
Eleventh Hour Rescue is not subsidized
by any government grants and receives no
major corporate funding. We rely solely on
the generosity of our volunteers, the com-
munity, and animal lovers everywhere.
When finding a loving home for one of
our pets, we make a promise to them before
Olivia Rubenstein
Rubenstein Asks For Donations Instead of Gifts for Her Bat Mitzvah
they leave. While they will never be
replaced in our hearts, a new life will take
their place in our homes. Since our incep-
tion in 2004, we have filled that promise
thousands of times over.

Meet the adorable Abby from Eleventh Hour Rescue. This
precious Hound pup is an older lady but still full of life and
lots of fun. She is 6 years old and was found wandering as
a stray with her sister Ellen. This means that we dont actu-
ally know her complete background and we dont even
know her real name, Abby is just her newly given name.
But what we do know is that Abby is a total sweetheart. She
is very friendly, very gentle, and a very kind girl. Typical
of the Hound breed, she uses her nose extensively on a long
walk or out in the play area. And also typical of the breed,
once she gets plenty of exercise, shes ready for a long nap.
One final note: shes not an early riser in the morning.
Sleeping in late is her specialtyand the Foster Mom says
this is a real plus! To read more about Abby, to see all of
our adoptable pets, or to see our upcoming events, please

Meet Norman from Eleventh Hour Rescue. When a volun-
teer visited a high-kill shelter to see what dogs could be
pulled and saved from being euthanized, Norman stood out.
Heres what that volunteer had to say on that very fateful
day: He was in death's waiting room. Half hairless, emaci-
ated, deaf, with an anal tumor, he could barely walk, and
was tested as heartworm positive which if left untreated, is
deadly. There is a still lot of vetting to follow up with but
he needs to gain strength and body mass first before expen-
sive surgeries and heartworm treatment can be performed.
I found him lying in his own urine barely moving when I
took him home to be his foster Mom. Just a few short
weeks later, he is my constant side kick here at home.
Norman continues to show great progress and he is gaining
strength every day. He has a kind and gentle soul and that
loving look in his eyes says everything you need to know
about him. The next phase of his medical treatments will
begin soon. To read more about Norman, to see our upcom-
ing events, or to make a donation, please visit:
www.ehrdogs.org or call: 973-664-0865.
Meet Gloria Judd from Eleventh Hour Rescue. She is a
sweet and friendly, 2 year old pit bull mix and looking for
someone to share her life with. She is very affectionate and
wags her tail and whole body when she sees you. She is
housebroken and wonderful in the house. She loves to play
yet she can also be a couch potato as well. She loves every-
one she meets and deserves a home where someone will
love her back. And one more note from a temporary foster
homeshe prefers to sleep on the bed with you at night, so
you may want a king sized bed if you adopt this beautiful
girl. To read more about Gloria Judd, to see all of our
adoptable pets, to see out upcoming events, please visit:

N
ow that summer is here, its time to fire up the grill.
For many, a cookout isnt complete without a juicy,
delicious hamburger. Even those trying to follow a
healthier, natural diet can enjoy this classic summer favorite
by using the right ingredients.
Mitzi Dulan, a nationally recognized nutrition and well-
ness expert and team sports nutritionist for the Kansas City
Royals, understands the importance of building a better
burger using leaner, healthier ingredients that benefit the
body.
Lean beef is an integral part of a wholesome burger as
it provides essential nutrients and protein to keep you trim
and energized, Dulan said. In addition to choosing nutri-
tious ingredients, exercise portion control and practice
moderation to create an even healthier burger.
Dulan recommends considering these tips for building a
better burger:
Simple substitutions, such as using lean ground beef, can
create a protein-packed burger that is low-fat and has fewer
calories. Consider using natural brands, such as Lauras
Lean Beef, to kick start a delicious, healthy burger.
Keep in mind that lean beef cooks in 1/3 less time than
regular beef since it has less fat. So, adjust the cooking time
to match your method of grilling. To make the grilling
process as healthy as possible, substitute natural charcoal.
Products such as Big Green Egg Organic Lump Charcoal,
use organic hardwoods and burn more efficiently without
harsh chemicals or odors.
Try new, healthier toppings that add a unique twist of fla-
vor to your burger. Instead of ketchup, which can be loaded
with excess sugar and sodium, consider fresh salsa. Replace
mayonnaise with sliced avocado, which is a creamy, heart-
healthy alternative.
Use whole grain buns in place of white buns. Whole-
grains are absorbed slower by the body, meaning they do
not raise sugar levels as quickly and keep you feeling full
longer. This reduces the urge to eat larger portions or snack
after a meal.

W
hen youre loading up the family for a big bar-
beque celebration, be sure to load up a variety of
freshly-made salads and deliciously decadent
brownies. Whether pasta salads, potato salads or even those
leafy greens, this side favorite is a perfect accompaniment
to juicy grilled burgers, brats and steaks. Because this

E
ach year the National Park Service provides a special
day of activities at the Thomas Edison Factory and
Laboratories in West Orange, New Jersey. It is
called Edison Day. Admission is free on this day. The tra-
ditional programs for this event have been an organized
family day of activities that includes: ranger talks on a vari-
ety of topics, tour of Edisons Glenmont house and grounds,
Edison innovative cement garage with the family cars, and
film appreciation of Black Maria films (The West Orange
Black Maria was the first movie studio in the United
States). This years Edison Day will be held on Saturday,
June 1st.
Thomas Edisons West Orange location is a national
treasure of the original factory and lab buildings that hous-
es the tools, inventions, equipment, records, films and doc-
uments of Thomas Edison. These building structures alone
are museum artifacts of an industrial era in American histo-
ry. This makes the Edison factory and lab location a unique
place of being a museum inside of a museum.
The West Orange location was Thomas Edisons vision.
Edisons innovations outgrew his Menlo Park location. In
1887 he employed Henry Hudson Holly an architect to
design the largest laboratory ever built. The result was a six
building lab complex that took a construction crew of 200
men to build. Many historians believe that this New Jersey
laboratory was the largest in the world when it was erected.
It is estimated that half of Edisons 1,093 patents were con-
ceived at the West Orange location such as: his work with
motion pictures, patented improvements to the phonograph,
and experiments with cement, alkaline batteries and rubber
substitutes. It is the West Orange location that expanded
Edisons horizons from inventor to successful manufactur-
er, businessman, and marketer of his inventions to the pub-
lic. In West Orange, New Jersey Edison created new inven-
tions, manufactured them and then sold them to the world.
The other half of this NPS national treasure in West
Orange is Edisons home - the Glenmont Estate. It is a 29-
room Queen Anne-style home resting on 15 acres of land
and is only one mile away from Edisons labs and factories.
In 1886 the Glenmont Estate became Edisons wedding gift
to his second wife Mina Miller. Mina would open up the 30
seat dining room to invite dinner guests that ranged from
the Wright Brothers, Henry Ford, Charles Lindbergh, Helen
Keller and the King of Siam. The home served as confer-
ence center besides a family residence since they extensive-
ly entertained their illustrious guests in their home. All of
Edison familys original home furnishing have remained
intact and in their exact rooms when Thomas and Mina
lived there.
The Glenmont estate is the birth place of New Jerseys
42nd Governor - Charles Edison. He was the son of
Thomas and Mina Edison. Their daughter Madeleine mar-
ried John Eyre Sloane in the Drawing Room of the
Glenmont home on June 17, 1914, a marriage that would
bear the only grandchildren to Thomas Edison. The

Mina Edison. In 2012 New Jersey honored Mina Edisons
Glenmont estate with a Womens Heritage Trail marker to
dedicate a Womens Heritage Trail where women played a
pivotal role.
