By Ejvind Boccolini he Hackettstown and surrounding communities are gathering together to assist a strong and confident girl with her fight against brain cancer. Margaret Walling is a 12-year-old Hackettstown resident who is successfully fighting cancer, having had surgeries, chemotherapy and other treatments since early this year. We wish her continued courage and strength as she moves forward with her treatments. In the near future, there are fundraising events, and Margaret's family, friends, and the community will look to raise the much needed additional finances for Margaret and her family. It is hoped that everyone can be generous again and help out Margaret. Since her diagnosis in early 2013 of brain cancer, her community has rallied around to support this courageous young girl throughout her treatments. The Tiger Wrestling Club also is teaming up with Smiles for Margaret to host a 5k/fun run on Saturday, November 30th, at Hackettstown's River Park. Fondly dubbed "Huff and Puff After you Stuff" (since it is two days after Thanksgiving), it is our hope that the community once again rallies around Margaret to show their support." We certainly need to do our best. You can sign up for the race, or make a donation at: www.runsignup.com/margaretwalling. Representatives are also graciously accepting sponsors for the event. Inquiries can be directed to Teri at smilesformargaret@gmail.com.

The event has a 10 am start time, and registration is 8:45 am to 9:40 am. Race entry fee is $20 prior to and $25 day of the event. Fun Run entry fee is $10 prior and $15 day of event. Checks can be made payable to Smiles For Margaret (with 5K in memo) and mail to Tiger Wrestling Club, PO continued on page 8

By Elsie Walker here are times when many of us may feel like life is giving us a pounding. Lifes emotional or stressful blows can be difficult to handle. However, one person has found a way to throw a few punches back. Coming to the center of the ring, from Hackettstown, New Jersey: The Sacred Slugger. The Sacred Slugger is the Rev. Dr. Cathy Deats, pastor of St. James Episcopal Church in Hackettstown. While she hasnt had any bouts, and admittedly isnt sure shed

The USA Gymnastics Level 3 Team at CS Gymnastics located at 4 Gold Mine Road in Flanders are reaching for the stars....and catching them as they all qualified for sectionals at their first competition this month.
Like us on facebook www.facebook.com/mypaperonline Tell Them You Saw It In The Hackettstown News, October 2013, Page 11 continued from front page went into kickboxing. What she found herself drawn to was the boxing aspect, how you defend yourself and what certain punches do. She looked around for a place to study and found the Dover Boxing Club, run by owner/trainer Ed Leahy. At the club, Deats is a Master (over 40 shell tell you with a smile) amateur amateur boxer. Most [of the club members] are teens, early 20s, boys. Some younger (middle
schoolers) and a few older; [there are] several women[in their] 20s and 30s.Workouts are scheduled three nights a week and weekend mornings. In summer, in addition, we sometimes meet at 6 am for an outdoor workout. I usually attend two workouts a week and do one additional training on my own (mostly roadwork), shared Deats. Because there is no one in her age range and skill level, she has not had any bouts. However, she doesnt seem to mind that.
I am really not sure if I would fight. It is not that I can't or don't know how, but I am having some trouble hitting someone and meaning to hurt them. It is really hard to box in a real bout unless you do that. I do drills with a partner, but have not had an official amateur bout, Deats said. However, she does participate when the club goes to matches by doing exhibitions with her trainer. He wears very spongy mitts and Deats throws the punches. There are many ways to use the mitts, but usually the trainer calls out punches and combinations and the boxer executes them. All the while, the trainer also looks for openings to teach defense and reminds the boxer that her hands are down or her stance is open with a mitt to the head or body. We are in full gear, and the mitt strikes are not punches, she noted. When people find out that shes a boxer, theyre usually pretty shocked. However, Deats explains it this way: People imagine that priests/pastors would not be attracted to such an aggressive sport. These are the same folks, though, who think Jesus was meek and mild! The truth is, we absorb a lot of blows in our work. This is not a complaint, or anything unexpected. Our work involves pastoral
care for people in various states of anxiety, fear and anger. Sometimes, we are the unintended recipients of strong feelings and we must learn to deal with the feelings in ourselves that these situations create. I have a great colleague group, my day off, solitude in the out of doors and a social life, with my husband, outside the church. All these things help me stay centered in my vocation. Boxing has been really great for keeping me centered through the concentration necessary as well as the intense physical workout. Another great bonus is that my trainer, Ed Leahy, has created a truly loving community at Dover Boxing Club. He is strict, funny, and compassionate -- and he has no idea he is a pastor in his own right! Since becoming a boxer and understanding more about the sport. Deats has started to watch boxing. However, it is not pro boxing that appeals to her, but the tightly controlled USA Olympic amateur boxing matches. She goes to matches with the club. Though she may never have a match, Deats seems very happy to just be part of the club and give exhibitions. Still, she needed a boxing handle and was aptly dubbed, The Sacred Slugger.

By Ejvind Boccolini Superintendent of Schools David Mango said The Hackettstown School District filed to be a "Choice District" and it has received word that they have been selected, pending Board of Education approval. "I'm very proud of that," Mango said, in an interview last week. The local community should be proud as well. It is quite an acheivement for the school district. Mango said when a district achieves such things, he believes accolades should be celebrated for sure. "I always view it as a good, positive thing," he added. Williow Grove School was also recently recognized as a "Reward School" by the state, and Hackettstown High School was again ranked #1 in Warren County for the second year in a row. This is additional great news. The high school was also named a "Blue Star" school due to the excellent test results of students. He said he honors the teachers, administrators, and staff who do such a "wonderful job with our students." In other Hackettstown School District news, each school is holding Principal Forums, in which parents will attend and discuss ideas, budget suggestions, and other school-related items. Mango said communication through technology, for instance, is great and useful, but nothing replaces the opportunity to interface live and in person. "It'll probably happen about three times per year," said Mango, referring to the Principal Forums, adding that prin-

cipals will likely set the dates. Also, college night was recently held in which almost 100 colleges and universities had representatives come to Hackettstown to give parents and students the opportunity to meet with them. This was an informational night for local students and parents that proved to be beneficial. In addition, new science labs were built in the high school, which were partly funded by state grants - a true bonus to the project. "You can't ask for more than that," said Mango, referring to the aid received from the state. Mango said on the district website, that "Throughout the summer months, several district projects have taken place such as, the replacement of the high school roof, and the complete renovation of the high school science labs to stateof-the-art science labs. Other beautification projects will continue to take place when necessary in order to improve our schools and district as a whole." Mango also encouraged communication and parent involvement in their child's educational journey. The Hackettstown School District website http://www.hackettstown.org/ has continuous updates and a calendar of events/meetings to keep the public informed. In other Hackettstown news, pedstrian and driver safety is becoming even more of a priority in town and police are keeping tabs on its success. So far, drivers are doing pretty good but they need to stay continued on page 22

AAUW-NJ is Connecting with ECPAT-USA to Help Stop Super Ball Time Sex Trafficking of Children
Like us on facebook www.facebook.com/mypaperonline Tell Them You Saw It In The Hackettstown News, October 2013, Page 21
By Michele Guttenberger VP of AAUW-NJ Communications he American Association of University Women of NJ (AAUWNJ) has been a coalition member of the NJ Coalition Against Human Trafficking since the start of its inception. President Sally Goodson sees AAUW-NJ as one of strongest coalition teams with an expansive geographic range. They have 23 branches that cover program communication from as far as northern Sussex County to the Southern tip of New Jersey in Atlantic County. AAUW-NJ has focused on the fight against human trafficking and has received an impact grant from their AAUW DC headquarters to continue on with their campaign. Recently, twenty AAUW-NJ volunteers will be embarking on a campaign in Northern New Jersey. In September AAUW-NJ took on an additional task with a representation from all their branches in Northern New Jersey with attendance in training sessions held by the Jewish Federation of Greater Metrowest in Whippany. They rallied their support for ECPAT-USA (End Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and Trafficking) that held four conference training sessions. The purpose for these conferences is to train leaders and volunteers for a campaign outreach and sign up mission with hotel managers throughout
New Jersey in anticipation of the 2014 Football Super Bowl Game in Secaucus, New Jersey on February 2014. They will prepare to counter the rise in human trafficking in the New Jersey area during the time leading up to and including Super Bowl XLVIII. The Super Bowl brings anywhere from 125,000 - 150,000 fans from across the nation and this influx of visitors also incites a demand for sex, leading traffickers to find easy exploitation of venerable troubled runaways and destitute minors for commercial sex work. AAUW-NJ volunteers will become an outreach canvassing force that will make the initial contact with Hotel Managers in their assigned areas. They will start the dialogue to arrange Hotel policy administrators to sign up to an ECPATs code to protect children from prostitution. Companies, especially those in the tourism industry, are often some of the first eye witnesses of these atrocities. Hotel management code participants will receive Code Training for themselves and their staff on how to handle these situations. Their participation has become the most vital form of corporate social responsibility needed to end this crime against juveniles. The coalition hopes to get committed hotel administrators to attend Human Trafficking Preventions Training that is being offered
for Hotel Managers on Saturday, November 2, 2013 at Rutgers University Law School in Newark, NJ. Sally Goodson hopes to promote activism from the strong advocates they have in their Atlantic County AAUW-NJ Branch to help with the Atlantic City Casino Hotels too.

Promote Safety...
continued from page 13 focused. Though the "Stop for Pedstrians" campaign is generally succeeding, drivers need to continue to maintain and improve their safety and awareness. Hackettstown was also involved in the annual Put the Brakes on Fatalities Day. Sgt. Tynan also said last week in a statement that drivers in town are making some progress regarding the "stop for pedestrians" law. He said "the police will continue to do decoy programs as well as the jaywalkers." Also, motorists in New Jersey and throughout the nation joined a day-long effort on October 10, 2013, designed to increase awareness about safe driving behaviors and keeping the states roadways fatality free for one-day. Known as Put the Brakes on Fatalities Day, the national initiative was designed to unite the country in moving toward zero fatalities for one full day by encouraging motorists to obey all traffic laws, including buckling up for every ride; driving the posted speed limit; avoiding distractions while driving; and always being safe and sober behind the wheel. Although New Jersey has managed to celebrate the last two Put the Brakes on Fatalities Days (October 10, 2011 & 2012) without tragedy, it will take the combined vigilance of all roadway users to accomplish this feat for the third consecutive year. Results were not available at presstime, but we hope that fatalities were at zero as they were the last two years. Unfortunately, there are still many motor vehicle-related deaths each year. Last year in New Jersey, 589 individuals lost their lives in motor vehicle-related crashes, down from 627 in 2011. The decline continues a downward trend in motor vehicle fatalities, highlighted by 2010 which had the lowest number of recorded motor vehicle deaths in the State since the 1940s. Clearly, this effort will go a long way in our continuing efforts to stem the tide of tragedies that occur every day on New Jerseys roadways, Sgt. Darren Tynan noted. Shining the spotlight on this one day can help create a groundswell of support for good driving behaviors that can carry over throughout the year. Put the Brakes on Fatalities Day" not only raises awareness about the individual responsibility we have for our driving behaviors, but also engages drivers in making positive changes behind-the-wheel every day of the year, Sgt. Tynan added. Regarding the state "Put The Brakes on Fatalities" Day, Sgt. Tynan said last week that the Hackettstown Police Department is encouraging motorists to "drive safely on Oct. 10 and obey all laws." "If we can get one day that's (fatality-free)," Tynan said, "it can be done everyday."
