MOHS Sophomore Places Third In Race To Remember 911

By Cheryl Conway motion was not the only thing running high for a group of Mt. Olive residents who recently participated in the Tunnel to Towers 5K race in New York. One of the local runnersMaxwell McVicar, 15, of Budd Lake- finished high on top by placing third overall out of about 35,000 runners. The annual race honors firefighter Stephen Siller who ran from the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel to the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2011 and was subsequently killed. The McVicars participated in the 12th annual race this year on Sunday, Sept. 29, along with four other local families, 21 people in total from Mt. Olive. Attending the race is a great way to actively support the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation and remember and reflect on the tragic events that occurred on 911. We try to have the kids really understand and respect and not forget what went on that day, and why it was such a big deal in our country and why it had such as impact on firefighters and our family, says Janet McVicar. Its a

great event for kids to understand the magnitude of 911. You feel the whole memorializing of it. To help them understand the big deal that 911 was. Their second year participating, Janets husbandThomas McVicar- is a Jersey City Police officer who was on sight thirty minutes after the towers came down on 911. The other local dads that participated are police officers as well. Its been a huge impact on him and our family, says Janet, to never forget; its

our way of commemorating it. Everything just sort of fit, she says, since she is a, amateur runner along with their son Maxwell. Their other son, Charlie, 10, participated as well. While Thomas is not a runner because of his bad knees, he waited at the finish line for his wife and two boys for support. To get timed in the race, participants must pay $10 for a timing chip, which Maxwell decided to do. He came in fourth place at last years race out of about 4,000

runners that counted, and beat his record this year by placing third out of about 5,000 runners that counted. Maxwell, a sophomore, runs cross country in the fall and track and field in the spring for the Mt. Olive High School team. As a track runner for the past five years, Maxwell specializes in distance running. In 2012, he was freshman county champion for the 1600 meter; the winter track team won the freshman sophomore county championship with Maxwell continued on page 6

Middle Schooler Throws a Punch at Cancer


whatever they could. Others made a cash donation even after I stopped making the bracelets, she shared. She noted that most who donated had a story to tell about how cancer has touched their lives. Reflecting on the fundraiser, Friedman shared, it is such a great feeling to know that Im helping people with cancer. Friedmans plans to raise money for the fight against cancer arent stopping with this project. Her mom shared that Summer is planning another fundraiser for Christmastime and plans to involve her friends. Those funds will go toward helping those with childhood cancer. I think that it is a great thing to do [a fundraiser] because you never know, you could be changing someones life. If everybody gives a little bit, together we could make a great impact on our world, she said.

By Elsie Walker ctober is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and Summer Friedman of Flanders, a 7th grader at Mount Olive Middle School, has joined in the fight against the disease. Creating and selling pink loom bracelets, she has raised over $300 dollars. Summers mother, Danielle Friedman, shared that her daughter is donating half of the money collected to the American Cancer Society's "Making Strides against Breast Cancer" Fundraiser and the other half is going to a private collection to help defray treatment costs for the friend of a friend who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. I knew that Breast Cancer Awareness Month was coming up and I wanted to make a difference, said Summer Friedman when asked why she decided to do the fundraiser. I had been making a lot of rainbow loom bracelets over the summer for family and friends and I thought it would be a good way to raise some money for breast cancer, she added. Eighty-five bracelets were made over two three weeks. Pink was the color chosen, as that is the color associated with breast cancer awareness. Two of my close friends, Hannah

between local clergy and township officials, in the wake of several tragedies which took the lives of Mt. Olive teens in the past several years. It was thought that an event like this would bring area teens together in a wholesome environment, but would also be something fun they could relate to, shared Oppelt. Local houses of faith and the Mt. Olive Clergy Association are donating their support. . and we may be appealing to some local businesses for more assistance. Our first place prize, worth $500, has been generously donated by Music Den and School of Rock. Our second place prize, worth $150, has been generously donated by Ritchie's Music, said Ingeneri. In reflecting on the event, Oppelt put it this way, We believe that we are all better together and want our area teens to know that our local area houses of worship are there for them as a resource in good times and bad.

In distance running, your mind blanks out and thats a good feeling, says Maxwell. It puts you in a good mood when you finish a good run. You stop feeling pain; you dont focus on anything anymore. Youre not feeling the strain of running anymore. In mid Sept. 2013, Maxwell came in first place in a 5K run in Lyndhurst for the police officers and firefighters. My trick is to not think about running, says Maxwell. I try to think about positive thoughts, positive ideas. I dont think about the hill thats coming up. I try to not focus on the running. I let my legs do their own thing. During the Tunnel to Towers run this year, Maxwell says I was trying to imagine myself having a good time. I was thinking of the benefit of that race of how it helps wounded veterans and what the Tunnel for Towers represented. The all road race starts as a narrow line on one street, up hill going through the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, through the city and the final stretch to where the firefighters finished at the towers, Maxwell describes. Highlights of the race include a lot of fanfare, says Janet, with cheerleaders and bands; celebrities and politicians; plaques held up by firemen with pictures and names of the 342 firefighters that died on 911; military men that run and carry a flag; firefighters

that run in their gear. As you came out of the tunnel, a lot of first responders who had a banner with the face of a firefighter who lost their life in 911 were standing there, describes Maxwell. It felt like a graveyard. It was the most emotional part. Janet agrees. Its a very emotional day really - the spirit thats there and the overall feeling. The race is a charity event and raises money to build smart homes for wounded and disabled veterans; funds to support firefighters in particular, work of the NYC Firefighter Burn Center Foundation and burn centers throughout America; Stephens House of the New York Foundling for orphaned and neglected children; scholarships to children of the U.S. Military who have sacrificed their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan; ongoing support for the children of Katrina; and commitment to rebuild an orphanage in Haiti that will house over 100 orphaned children. Cost to participate was $50 for adults and children were free. This race has become quite an event in NYC, growing from a few hundred runners when it began around 2002, to more than 30,000 with people coming from all over the world to run and help raise money for the charities supported by the Stephen Siller foundation. The run recounts the footsteps that Siller took that day.

As posted on the foundation website, On September 11th, firefighter Stephen Siller had just gotten off the late shift at Squad 1, Park Slope, Brooklyn. He was on his way to play golf with his brothers on that bright clear day when his scanner told of the first plane hitting the Twin Towers. When he heard the news, he called his wife Sally to tell her he would be late because he had to help those in need. He returned to Squad 1 to get his gear, then took his final heroic steps to the World Trade Center. When Stephen drove his truck to the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, it was already closed to traffic. With sixty pounds of gear strapped to his back, he ran through the Tunnel, hoping to meet up with his own company, Squad 1.

Maxwell came in third place at the race this year, and was not recognized for his accomplishment. No ribbons were given. Maxwell does not mind. That is not why he ran and won. I love the run, says Maxwell. Its an amazing run. Its great reason to get myself in shape. It has some meaning for me- my father was a first responder that day. It has some emotional meaning for me. Seeing all of the military veterans and disabled first responders come out in wheelchairs to participate was remarkable to Maxwell. Seeing them on their feet or in their wheelchair- just seeing them come out has inspired me for any hindrances I might have later in life.

From the Mayors Desk


cant believe its already October. Many things happening in Mount Olive on which to report. The Braille Trail (near Residence Inn off Love Lane) continues to take shape. If you havent had the chance to walk the trail, it is amazing. Very scenic along a portion of the old Morris Canal. The walk will take you from Mount Olive into Stanhope, a mile in each direction. The tot lot, Mount Playmore continues to move along. I am so excited about the involvement of the school gifted and talented classes in the design of the project. This activity will serve to bring the community together and make us all proud about living in Mount Olive. Siemens has broken ground and will be starting their expansion which ultimately will bring needed tax dollars into town. I was also advised that the Planning Board approved a sports bubble on the Centercourt property which will be a benefit to our sporting clubs to have a local indoor facility in which to practice and play. Weis Markets continues to renovate the old Flanders A&P site with the expectation of opening in January or February of 2014. Lastly, I wanted to thank all of you who have approached me to tell me you think Im doing a good job. I know I can never please all of the people all of the time but I am doing the best I can.

Sincerely, Rob Greenbaum Mayor, Mount Olive Township

3 Simple Ways to Prevent Back Pain


your hands on your hips, keep your knees straight and bend backwards in the lower back ten times. This exercise should feel like a stretch and never cause or increase any pain. If there is pain, do not complete the exercise. Try this once every 30 minutes any time you sit long periods. Use your power muscles. Make sure that when you are doing anything that requires frequent or heavy lifting you do not bend from the spine. Instead widen your feet and bend from your hips and knees, making sure to keep an arch in your spine. Obviously the tips in this article cannot resolve all forms of LBP, but should help many people prevent a common problem I see every day. If you currently suffer from LBP, call our office for help! We accept all insurances. Drayer Physical Therapy Institute Flanders Center The Mall at 206, Flanders, NJ 973-598-3077 ( Paid Advertisment)

By Mark Young, PT, DPT eres the bad news: low back pain (LBP) is one of the most common orthopedic problems in America, making it the most frequent diagnosis I see as a physical therapist. But, if youre one of the many suffering, heres the good news: a majority of cases can be prevented by making basic changes to the way you sit and move. Every day we drive long distances to work, sit at a computer, lift objects from the ground, and do chores around the house that cause our spine to bend forward thousands of times a day. Rarely do our spines ever bend backward. This frequent bending puts pressure on the discs in our spine and can eventually cause numerous problems. Here are three simple ways to help. Grab a towel, roll it up and place it in the curve of your lower back, just above your belt line as you sit all the way back in your chair. Do this whenever you sit for an extended period of time. Bend Backwards! For those of you who sit or bend frequently try standing up, put

Young Victims Remembered At Memorial At Turkey Brook


community to come together to remember and contemplate. DAmico Novaky of Denise Hackettstown, chairperson of the Become Awesome Foundation, submitted her proposal to the council after her sons memorial was dismantled and prohibited by the property owner. Her son, Nicholas Novaky, 18, and his friend, Neil Solanki, 19, were killed in a car accident after smashing into a tree at Fellowship Church on Wolfe Rd. on June 19, 2012. To commemorate their death, a roadside memorial with memorabilia and mementos had been set up around a large tree where the accident occurred. The property owner was looking to sell the property so they cleaned up the memorial, explains Canning. While considering an alternative place for family and friends to meet together, express grief, find solace, and take time to meditate, I asked our towns young adults their opinion, Novaky states in her proposal to the council. Some suggested that a place become available where other young Mt. Olive residents can also be memorialized. The site would serve as a safe place, as opposed to a roadway with heavy traffic, where all can express their grief in solitude or in the unity and support of others. The Become Awesome Foundation offered to spearhead the project under the auspices of Mt. Olive Twp. The memorial site will be offered to recognize young local residents 25 and under who have died in fatal accidents. After looking into several areas, township officials agreed that an area at Turkey Brook Park would be suitable for a memorial. They picked an unused portion of land at the top of the loop, in front of the basketball court and adjacent to the Dog Park, says Canning. We already cut out this parcel, says Canning, which is about 100 sq. feet by 40 sq. feet. Its going to fill up the park won-

By Cheryl Conway esidents in Mt. Olive will soon have one central location in town to remember loved ones lost too soon. The Mt. Olive Township Council unanimously approved a resolution on Sept. 3 to permit a portion of Turkey Brook Park to build a memorial in honor of the tragic loss of young lives. The Become Awesome Foundation charity group requested the proposal at a council meeting in August. Memorials, such as roadside ones, are usually displayed at the site where a person tragically lost his or her life, but those memorials may not be permanent depending on the property the accident occurred. The memorial - Become Awesome Garden of Memory and Reflection - to be built at Turkey Brook Park is going to be a wonderful addition to the park, says Sean Canning, Mt. Olive Township business administrator. It will be a quiet place for beauty and contemplation. Mayor Rob Greenbaum says he hopes the new memorial site will be educational to others. Some municipalities put smashed up cars in front of their municipal building with a sign that says speed kills, says Greenbaum. Or look how drugs or teen suicide affects the entire the community.

school since the beginning of the school year as an example of good character. He is providing a gift of love for the kids, says Miranda. His visits provide the middle school with a little bit of a different tone that represents kindness and a loving community. Academics are very important but I also want the building to be filled with love and hes a symbol of that. Windsor is not your typical house dog. He is a trained therapy dog who passed the Good Citizenship test through the Bright and Beautiful Therapy Dogs out of Morris Plains. Dogs must pass several criteria before certi-

By Cheryl Conway t. Olive Middle School has a new part-time school member this year and the kids are simply digging him. He is kind, calm, loyal, trusting, disciplined and respectful of others. The smile that he brings to the kids faces has been quite a treat. The two year old, 29 pound cocker spaniel named Windsor has been a great addition to the MOMS family. His owner, MOMS Principal Susan Breton-Miranda has been bringing her trained therapy dog to the

fication is approved. He passed with flying colors, says Miranda. He is very well behaved. I worked with him. To get certified, dogs must act appropriately under about 10 conditions like being exposed to medical equipment; remaining calm in loud situations such as pots or pans being thrown; behaving appropriately when placed in front of a large dog; and adhering to commands such as refraining from eating food until told to do so. All kinds of dogs go through the test, explains Miranda. They look for dogs who

are well socialized, who are willing to be touched. They are looking for dogs that will not react, behave appropriately and listen to commands. Miranda got Windsor two years ago when he was only nine months old from a woman breeder- Button Wood Cockers in Pa. A nationally known breeder and judge on dog shows, this breeder loves cocker spaniels. Windsors father is a West Minster champion, says Miranda. She worked with him for a few months, explains Miranda. She kept him because she continued on page 20

He didnt meet specifications so she looked for a companion home. Miranda describes Windsor as very low key, and very well behaved when she brings him to school. Windsor visits MOMS about once or twice a week, depending on her calendar. He is very loyal to me, she says. He will rarely leave my side. While Im here kids remark will he ever leave you? He will just lie down by my legs and doesnt move. Even if I have to go in a classroom, he will come up with me and he lies at my feet. I train him to lay right by me; He knows thats his job to stay by me. He is a phenomenal dog. Earlier in the school year, Miranda held an assembly for each grade level with Windsor and talked to the students about the four qualities he possesses- loyalty, trust, respect and kindness- as well as our mission here- helping kids learn and grow. Thats our goal here to have happy, healthy well adjusted young adults. Miranda talked to the kids about being loyal, trusting, and kind to each other. He is a good symbol for that for the kids. It created a little bit of a buzz. The kids will stop and really talk to him like hes a human in the school. Teachers bring him a bone. There are kids who love to take a moment to pet him; you can just see the kids light up.

Principals Pet...

Windsor loves the attention and visiting MOMS, says Miranda. He will wait at the door in the morning to see if he is going, says Miranda. He loves to be out and about. At school, he greets them in the morning, then goes under my desk. If I get up he goes with me. Hes my companion. At school, Miranda has a water bowl and blanket for Windsor and people bring in treats. When he goes home at night, hes exhausted, she says. He gets a lot of attention. He goes into three Rs- I put him on the stage, kids line up to talk to him, touch his head and visit with him. Having a dog in the school has also been quite therapeutic in different situations. Windsor causes some to distress. There was one student this year with behavioral issues who was brought to the office and was very upset. Instead of a one on one in her office, Miranda and the student took Windsor for a walk. Having Windsor there provides kids with an opportunity to be more distracted and open up and talk to me and kind of get back on track, says Miranda. I know Im the principal; the name principal can be intimidating. Having the dog provides a sense of them knowing who I am. I want them to feel like they can talk to me. If Im a vehicle for that, its only a positive thing for the kids. Anything we can do to make kids less

stressed and have them learn is positive, she says. Miranda has not faced any negative issues amongst the students by bringing in Windsor. There was one student who wasnt happy with the dog being there last year, says Miranda. Now the girl loves the dog. Miranda says I wouldnt have brought him if he didnt have his certification. I wanted him to be well behaved and safe to bring into the building. He will stay by me; I will leash him; hes not a dog that runs. Many parents have told her how positive they are about having Windsor at school. They appreciate having a place where

kids are feeling good; they smile and interact with him, says Miranda. The kids go home and say its kind of funny having a dog in school. Parents came into the building recently and they had a two-year old with them who asked if she could see the dog so she bent down to pet him while Windsor just lied at her feet. Thats what I want for this building, says Miranda, that peacefulness. Its peaceful, loving and kindness. Its about making this middle school a very special place to be.

There is no evidence that Nick was drag racing, drinking or behaving in other excessively dangerous ways that we, due to stereotype, sensationalism, or statistical fact, typically associate with fatal accidents involving teens, Denise DAmico Novaky writes on the website.

The Become Awesome Foundation is designed to keep the gifts that Nick brought to this planet alive and continued by others.

A check for $2700.00 was presented to the family on Monday, October 7, 2013, at the Knights of Columbus hall, 3 Schmitt Lane, Flanders. Contributing to the fund were members of the Knights of Columbus and through generosity of the parishioners of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton RC Parish in Flanders, through contributions during Sunday Masses on October 6th. The Knights of Columbus and the parishioners at St Elizabeth, recognize that tragedies like this can happen to any of us and we are proud to be able to offer the family this contribution to help with the high cost of Bianca's medical needs.

Mount Olive Converting to Automated Style Garbage Trucks


Works and there are anticipated retirements within the Sanitation Department over the next few years. Through these re-assignments and natural attrition via retirement the overall workforce will be reduced. Will the Township still do large item clean-up week or what if I have more garbage than fits in my garbage can? Yes, the Township will still offer a large item clean-up week as we have in the past. The new trucks are designed with a rear feeding hopper that will accept large items exactly like our older trucks did. If there is a surplus of garbage that will not fit in a can, the two dollar stickers are still being sold at the Department of Public Works counter located in Town Hall. Why is the Township doing this? The Township has extensively researched numerous options for the planned replacement of three sanitation trucks. Trucks similar to those already owned were researched. Additionally, our workmans compensation costs were also examined and the Administration saw an opportunity to reduce both workmans compensation costs and labor costs by choosing the style trucks being purchased. Where can more information be found on these new trucks, the new cans and what are the guidelines for the smaller cans? An informational mailing will be sent to all residents / customers in the Sanitation Tax district. This mailing should be arriving the third week of October. Information on the new cans is available at Town Hall and sample cans are located in the Department of Public Works vestibule area. Residents age 55 and older or residents with a disability are eligible for the smaller 65 gallon can. What do I do with my old can and are they changing recycling as well? Your old cans can be re-purposed or the Township will collect them and recycle them. There are no changes to the current recycling program. Residents should continue to recycle as they have. Residents with questions should contact the Department of Public Works at (973) 691-0900 ext. 7361.

he Township of Mount Olive is proud to announce that it is converting its fleet of sanitation solid waste collection trucks to automated style collection trucks. This conversion will occur sometime in December 2013. The conversion will still allow residential customers of the Sanitation Tax district to dispose of solid waste in volumes similar to with the old style trucks. How is this happening? The new style trucks, affectionately referred to as, one armed bandits will use a mechanized arm to reach out and lift either a 96 gallon or a 65 gallon can and dump it into the truck. This essentially eliminates the need for a driver and helper to disembark the vehicle, hoist cans and return the cans to your property. As a part of this streamlining, labor needs and workmans compensation cases will decrease. This in turn will reduce associated costs and premiums that are borne by the taxpayers within the Sanitation Tax district. Will employees be laid off because of the new trucks? No, no staff will be laid off when the new trucks are brought on line. Staff will be re-assigned to other departments within the Department of Public

Local Family Passes Football Captain Title Down


Ethan, because Ive been working for that ever since I was little. I always wanted to be like my cousin and uncle. Keeping the tradition strong feels really, really good. Knowing that number 58 is on the field and its been in my family. As captain, Ethan says his role is to make sure nobody is slacking, everyone is working hard all the time, everyone cleans up if we have water in the locker room, always keep everything clean and to lead the team to win games. So far, serving as captain has been a positive experience for Ethan, who hopes to play Division I college football next year. Having that feeling of people relying on you leading them to victory is a good feeling, says Ethan. After the team lost to Mendham 26-0 earlier in the season, the coach said we need to do a better job in motivating the team. Its on us. We spoke to them in practice and everyone is really motivated. As of press time, the MOHS Varsity football team had two wins and three losses, with four more games left in the season. For football players aspiring to be a captain one day, Ethan says work hard; never take a play off, they write their own future. Next in line to be a football captain at MOHS from The Weiss family is Ethans 13-year old brother, Corey. We have one chance left with this generation, as Corey Weiss is a player on the Jr. Marauder Football Varsity team, and will enter high school next season, says Howie. After that, it will be up to unborn Weiss children to follow the lead! Howie, 52, who has been living in Mt. Olive since 1970, started on the MOHS varsity football team when he was a sophomore in 1976 as an offensive guard and defensive end. He played tight end and linebacker as a junior and tight end and defensive as a senior. Voted as captain in 1978, Howie says, I was proud to be the captain. I respected my team mates, I was their friend, and they trusted me to be captain. Being captain gave me the opportunity to meet players and coaches from around the county, off the field. For me, one of the most important men (after my father) in my life was Coach Al Nicholas. To be recognized and honored by such a great man was an amazing accomplishment for me. Howie, who says football was my life, suffered a season-ending injury in the 1976 season requiring two knee surgeries. I was told that I would not be able to play anymore, so I used those words to motivate myself for the rehab on my knee to be able to play in our first game of the next season. Football motivated me and kept me focused on my goals. From experience, Howie says A good captain leads by example. A good captain does not have to scream, speak the loudest or cheer the hardest. A good captain promotes team goals by example and helps raise his teammates to a higher level. A good captain is a good leader. To his nephew and any other future captains, Howie - who works as an independent sales representative and owner of his own company- says, Lead by example both on and off the field. Be a good football player, work hard in practice, demand that your team mates do as you do, and dont settle for anything short of the goals that you set out to accomplish. Following in his footsteps was a great accomplishment for Howies son Jake, 20, who was MOHS football captain in 2010. Jake, a junior at The College of New Jersey, plays defensive line for the colleges Division III program. In his 14th year playing football, Jake says One of my favorite things about playing football is being able to put everything else aside for the time that I'm out there. Whether its schoolwork or any other stress, it all gets pushed to the side when I'm playing

by Cheryl Conway football is not the only thing the Weiss family of Flanders is passing. Weiss has become a family household name to the Mt. Olive Varsity Football team now that the third football player from the Weiss family has been voted a team captain. Ethan Weiss, 17, of Flanders has been named one of five captains to the MOHS Varsity Football team for the 2013 school year. He is the third person to be named captain from his family. His cousin, Jake, was captain in 2010 and his uncle, Howie, was captain in 1978. Being named captain is not easy being that the players on varsity and junior varsity must vote for seniors and those with the most votes win. They were selected during their summer workouts this year. The other captains this year are Zach Heeman, Mike Moran, Jeremy Goodman and Daniel Lieberopolous. With 36 players currently on both teams, getting the position is an honor. This situation is quite unique in any high school anywhere, says Howie Weiss, the first from his family to hold the title. I am so proud of the boys, he says about his son and nephew following in his steps. Being named captain tells me that they are acknowledged and recognized by their coach as the team leader. In his third year on varsity, Ethan is so happy to be named a captain. The 265 pound, six foot three inch player specializing as right tackle on offense and defense, has been playing football for the past 12 years. I was very happy, says

football. Also, I've built relationships with some awesome people throughout the years because of football - from the Jr. Marauders all the way to the college level. Serving as a captain has been one of his finest moments in football. It was such an honor to be a captain, but even more that I wasn't the first in the bloodline, says Jake. I always wanted to fill in the footsteps my dad left behind so it was very special. I loved the responsibili-

ty of being a captain, says Jake. I liked knowing that people could come to me with any issues regarding the team. Even more I always felt like it was the captain's responsibility for the camaraderie of the team. There's no better feeling than leading a group of 60 plus guys onto the field every Friday night and getting them pumped up. Now that his cousin is captain, Jake is as proud as ever. It is really neat that Ethan is able to continue the

tradition, says Jake. As much as I'd love to say that I'm surprised I'm really not. He has a good head on his shoulders and he's worked his butt off the last few years. I'm glad to see his hard work pay off. Jake says, If I had any advice for Ethan I would tell him to make the most of his time and to embrace the whole experience. Leave everything you have on the field. Everyone always says there's nothing better than playing high school football and I couldn't agree more.

The golfers had a terrific day, the weather was beautiful, and the Spring Brook course was a good challenge, says Barb Flynn, director of Development at MHAMC.

W T
hree firefighters and an EMT from Mount Olive have been selected by the Saint Barnabas Burn Foundation to be honored at the 26th Annual Valor Awards dinner on October 24, 2013. Capt. Kevin Elms, Lt. Patrick Piserchio & Firefighter Gregory Widzemok of the Flanders Fire Company were chosen from a statewide pool of nominees to receive the top valor award. Lt. Nicholas Petonak from the Budd Lake Rescue Squad was selected to receive the EMS award. The four are credited with saving the life of a 9 year old girl at a fire that claimed the lives of her brother and stepfather in February. Elms, Piserchio and Widzemok, while battling the blaze inside the house, located the young girl in a rear bedroom and removed her to the street where Lt. Petonak began rescue breathing. As she was being transported to the helicopter to be airlifted to the burn unit at Saint Barnabas Medical Center in West Orange, Petonak used a humidified suction to clear her airway. She has since undergone numerous surgeries and celebrated her 10th birthday.

By Cheryl Conway hoever said that walking wont get you too far was way off the mark. Seven years of walking at Chester M. Stephens Elementary School in Budd Lake has funded the education of a 12-year old girl in East Africa. This year more than 800 walkers participated in the seventh annual CMS Walk-a-thon held on Wed. Sept. 25 at the school. Being kind goes a long way for the CMS school community who has been participating in Rainbow Connections as an act of kindness. This rainbow stretches across the Atlantic Ocean and connects with Eline Maleko- a sixth grader at The School of St. Jude in East Africa. Together we will have the honor of donating a little bit of gold at the end of the rainbow to further Elines school, notes the CMS staff. Extending our care to Eline will allow our students to see that we can help fight poverty while blending our minds, feet and hearts together as we offer our service to a less fortunate child. At the School of St. Jude, more than 90 percent of the students attend free of charge because they come from very poor families. In order to qualify, students must pass an academic entrance test, live in a home with just one room, and have no glass on their windows, running water or wooden floors. This school is for the poorest of children but they must also show academic promise so they can achieve their motto: Fighting Poverty Through Education, according to a CMS flyer about the walk-athon. Eline has been able to attend the school because of CMSs sponsorship. This year, CMS raised $1,974 from the walk-a-thon. With 650 students, each grade had a scheduled time to walk for 20 minutes. Parents, siblings, teachers and staff joined in. Students were asked to donate $3 to walk or $5 for a family pledge. For students in grades one through five,

a track was set up with a walking lane and a jogging lane, rather than having the kids walking around the parking lot like in previous years. The track is about 1/8 of a mile, says Karen Drach-Parker, physical education teacher at CMS who helped monitor the day long walk-a-thon. Many students completed a mile and some used the pacing techniques we have been practicing in class to go even farther! CMS hopes to continue to support Eline through her schooling. Learning is a lifelong journey, but we will continue to financially support Eline through eighth grade and decide about continued support at that point, says CMS staff. As part of the day, CMS also participated in Sole for Souls outreach by asking students to donate gently used shoes. There were 235 shoes collected, according to Drach-Parker. The shoes were given to Foot Solutions in Chester, which will then ship them to Soles for Souls - a global not-for-profit institution dedicated to fighting the devastating impact and perpetuation of poverty. The organization advances its anti-poverty mission by collecting new and used shoes and clothes from individuals, schools, faith based institutions, civic organizations and corporate partners, then distributes those shoes and clothes to people in need. This year, in addition to the walkathon and shoe collection, students participated in J.A.M.- another national event promoting exercise and a healthy, active lifestyle by finding Just A Minute to fit exercise into your day, says Drach-Parker. The students danced for J.A.M. as a warm-up to the walking. Contributions earmarked for Eline can always be dropped off at the CMS office, however, shoe donations will not longer be accepted at the school. Shoes can be dropped at The Foot Solutions store in Chester.

hen designing a new playground who better to ask for design advice than the children who are going to be playing there? Beginning Friday, October 11th all students in the Mount Olive school district will receive a special drawing sheet in their Friday folders. Children are asked to put crayon to paper and draw their dream playgrounds, submitting their drawings by October 25th. Then on Thursday, November 7th as part of Design Day, Mount Olive children will work directly with worldrenowned playground designing firm, Leathers and Associates to review their drawings and share their ideas which will ultimately become a reality with the community build project for Mount Playmore at Turkey Brook Park in Spring of 2014. Todays kids spend less time playing outside than any previous generation. Active play encourages children to develop physically, emotionally and cognitively. We are really excited to see the community get behind this project, stated Mount Olive Mayor Robert Greenbaum, Were doing something important for our kids, and the future generations of Mount Olive. The concept behind a community build project is to get the children and the community involved and take ownership of their playground from the very beginning stages. Design Day will begin at 9am in the Mount Olive Senior Center, 204 Flanders-Drakestown Road with twenty minute time slots for each elementary school to come and meet with the playground architect. The final design reveal will be shown to all at 6:30pm with a special dessert reception party! All children, parents, community leaders and seniors are invited to participate! For more information on Design Day please visit the Mount Olive Recreation website www.mountolivetownship.com/recreation.html.

Thank You To All Our Veterans


various streets on our way to the NJ Tpk. Every intersection along the route was being blocked by Local, County, and State police, standing at attention and saluting these Veterans as the buses were passing. We first stopped at the World War II Memorial where a group photo was taken at the New Jersey column, followed by a nice picnic lunch provided at the nearby park. Then we visited the Korean War Memorial, drove past the Iwo Jima Monument, other memorials, Arlington National Cemetery, then proceeded home. During the ride back to Williamstown, every Veteran received mail call which contained letters written by local school children thanking them for their service to our Country. The highlight of this was that they were also provided with personal letters from their families who the Honor Flight volunteers had reached out to. Upon arrival back at Williamstown High School there was a large buffet dinner with deserts, gifts for all the Veterans with music and honorable thank you to all who served. We then boarded our Lakeland Bus for the return trip which was filled with happiness over the wonderful day they just had and the gratitude they expressed to us Guardians. The long hot day had taken its

Buehne-Johnson had coordinated this event with Honor Flight Southern Jersey and I was honored to be the Guardian for Mount Olive Veteran Mr. Allan Kishpaugh. We also had local Veterans Edward J. Mostowicz, Alfred Petraccia, and Ray Goyette. Our Lakeland Bus left Dover at 0300, (3:00am for civilians) and we made stops to pick up other Veterans and Guardians at Willowbrook Mall, Vince Lombardi rest stop, Summit, and Crowne Plaza off exit 8 NJ Turnpike. We arrived at Williamstown High School and were greeted by various ROTC, school children, scouts, and others as we were escorted to the dining area where a tremendous buffet breakfast was served. The group of approximately 100 Veterans with their Guardians and staff boarded 4 large motor coach buses for the trip to Washington, DC, and the procession was escorted by a group of very patriotic motorcyclists, and a Local police cruiser. The emotions were very high and many tears were shed as we were escorted through

to visit their memorials and recall long lost comrades, their stories will last my lifetime. This Veterans Day please take a few moments to remember and thank all Veterans for providing us with the freedoms we enjoy.

any people turn to home security to protect themselves from whats outside. Once inside their homes, most people feel safe as long as they can keep everything else out. What some dont consider is that they also need protection from things inside their homes. Many accidents occur within the safe comfort zone of ones home. The fatality rate for these types of accidents is second only to automobile accidents. Two of the five leading causes of fatal home injury are fire and accidental poisoning. Carbon monoxide is the top cause of poisoning deaths in the U.S. Since you cant

Avoid Dangerous In-Home Accident


smell or see it, this could kill you before you even know its there. The only way to ensure youre aware when dangerous levels are present is to install detectors. Many home security companies offer this feature. They professionally install carbon monoxide detectors in locations most likely to detect the danger soonest. They ensure that you are protected against this toxic poison within your home. Another one of the top dangers of home accident fatalities is fire. This includes firerelated deaths from smoke. In fact, most victims die from the smoke or toxic gas, rather than the flames themselves. If a fire occurs, you may not be aware of it in time if you are not properly equipped. This can also be avoided with the help of home security companies. Their professional installers know where the highest risks of fire in the home are. They can install smoke and heat sensors in locations nearest these fire hazards. This will give early warning of impending danger. When you are made aware of these dangers early on, you can call for emergency help and save yourself, your family and your home. With home security services, many systems would not only detect the danger, but also call emergency services for

you. They give you direct contact with local police and fire officials. In an emergency situation your call for help will be responded to quickly and efficiently. Detecting danger and having the power to deal with it quickly is just another benefit of home security systems. Working with a reliable provider will keep you safe and offer peace of mind! Check out the many services available. Most companies offer extra features and equipment to fit your personal needs. Protect yourself from people getting in, but also make sure youre protected from dangers already in your own home.

Simple Swaps to Make Holiday Meals Better for You


really pack on the pounds. Stick with seltzer-based drinks, sugar-free hot chocolate or herbal teas. On very special occasions, enjoy a bite or two of a truly decadent dessert. Then, switch to fruit-based sweets or treat yourself to a sugar-free beverage. You may even find yourself a little lighter and healthier after the holidays. For more great snack and recipe ideas, visit www.sabra.com. Holiday Turkey Sandwich with Hummus and Cranberry Recipe provided by www.smithbites.com Prep time: 10 minutes Total time: 10 minutes 2 slices sourdough or hearty country bread 1/4 cup Sabra hummus 2 leaves bibb or Boston lettuce 2 thin slices purple onion 2-3 slices leftover turkey, sliced about 1/4-inch thick 1/4 cup cranberry sauce Salt and pepper to taste Spread both pieces of bread with hummus, then layer lettuce, purple onion, turkey, cranberry sauce and another layer of lettuce, salt and pepper; add top piece of bread, hummus side down. Hummus Mashed Potatoes Prep time: 15 minutes Total time: 45 minutes Yield: 6 servings 6 yellow potatoes, or about 5 cups peeled and cubed 1 1/3 cup Sabra hummus 2 tablespoon olive oil Salt and fresh pepper to taste 2 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped 1 lemon, cut into 6 wedges Peel potatoes and place in bowl of water to cover to prevent discoloration. Cut potatoes into 1 1/2-inch cubes and place in medium sized pot with enough water to cover and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Bring to boil and simmer over medium heat for about 30 minutes, or until fork goes gently through potatoes. Once cooked, drain potatoes and place back into pot over medium heat for about 3 minutes, until moisture comes out of potatoes and they appear dry. Remove from heat. In same pot, start mashing potatoes with masher. Add 1 1/3 cup hummus, oil, salt and pepper to taste. Top with sprinkling of fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedge to squeeze over top.

he only thing harder than passing up a delicious dish at a party is trying to talk yourself out of eating holiday leftovers the next day. While everyone is entitled to a little indulgence now and then, its possible to have your traditional turkey and cranberry sandwich and eat better too. The trick is to cut calories whenever you can, and that means making simple swaps. Here are a few ideas to get you started: The day after a festive meal, stack your sandwich high with leftover turkey, lettuce and cranberry sauce. But dont blow it by adding a big smear of mayonnaise. Instead, top this traditional sandwich with delicious, smooth Sabra Hummus to save fat and calories. If you want to cut a lot of extra carbs out of your holiday diet, skip the stuffing. Instead, try wild or brown rice with your turkey. Once youve filled your plate with crudit instead of a high-calorie appetizer, dont dip carrots and celery sticks in a vat of ranch dressing. Try a dip made from Greek yogurt, like Sabra Cucumber & Dill Greek Yogurt Vegetable Dip. Cut the fat and calories in mashed potatoes by making a dairy free option with creamy hummus instead of butter or milk. Its easy to drink a lot of extra calories during the holidays. Fancy coffee drinks, eggnogs and sugary cocktails can

Lemonade Stand to Stop Puppy Mills

licia Mitas, age 10, and her Sister, Claire, age 6, from Denville, NJ, teamed up to spread the word to help stop puppy mills. The two girls setup a lemonade stand that included baked good, bracelets, and their very own art work for sale to raise funds in support of Eleventh Hour Rescue based in Rockaway, NJ. The stand was open for business on two separate occasions in front of the PETCO Store, 1111 Route 46, Parsippany, NJ thanks to Store Manager, Jay and his generous offer to host their efforts. The purpose of the lemonade stand was to raise awareness

about abused dogs from puppy mills. Their dog, Jenny, alumni from Eleventh Hour Rescue, joined in their campaign as well. In total, the girls raised over $106 for their efforts. Eleventh Hour Rescue is a fully registered, 501c3, not for profit organization dedicated to saving dogs and cats from over-crowded shelters around the country. Since their inception in 2004, over 7,000 pets has been placed into their loving forever homes. Visit: www.ehrdogs.org or call: 973-664-0865 for more information.
