opatcong Girl Scout Brownie Troop 94584 received a United States Flag that was flown in Afghanistan on Thanksgiving Day, November 22, 2013 from a dad that returned from his tour. He also presented us with a plaque. While he was in Afghanistan, the troop collected cookie donations to send to him and then at Christmas time sent a care basket of snacks a pictures they colored. In honor of Memorial Day, the girls were taught to fold the flag and some flag etiquette by Troop 341 in preparation to march with it in the parade though the weather didn't allow them the honor. Once the Hopatcong Senior Center is complete, Troop 94584 hopes to display the flag and the plaque there.

eptember 11, 2001, is a day permanently etched in history. 9-11 carries profound meaning for many people and stands in infamy along with events like Pearl Harbor and the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. The attacks on 9-11 resulted in a total of 2,996 fatalities. Among those were the victims on the four planes, civilians working in the towers and on the ground, military personnel and civilians in the Pentagon, and first-responders to the scenes. It is believed that at least 200 people in the World Trade Center fell or jumped to their deaths from the burning towers because rescue was improbable at or above points of impact on the towers. Along with the World Trade Center primary towers, many other buildings in the area were destroyed or badly damaged from the attack. Many buildings were condemned.

911 Outdoor Service, Silent Auction Part of Netcong Day for Church
church picnic. Also, the church will have a booth that day, Netcong Day, from 11am to 5pm. It will be giving out free water and lollypops and holding a silent auction to benefit its Raise the Roof Capital Funds Campaign. The church is located at #2 Route 183 in Netcong. The churchs pastor, the Rev. Tom Kinter noted that the outdoor service started after the 911 tragedy. There is a symbolism in holding it outdoors. Just as people were forced from their office buildings that day, worshippers are going outside the safety and security of our building [for the service], said Kinter. The service is open to people of all faiths. The beautiful stone church, also known as the Church in the Glen, was entered into the New Jersey register of historic places on October 15, 2012 and the national registry of historical places on January 2, 2013. Its Raise the Roof Capital Funds Campaign is raising money to replace the roof and repair the bell tower structure, to make them water tight. One of the ways it is raising that money is through the silent auction at Netcong Day. The silent auction is a way to invite others to [contribute toward] the repair of a building that has meant a lot to the community, said Kinter. The church is home to a food pantry; AA groups meet there, as do scouts. Free community dinners have been held there, and more. In a silent auction, people view items and then submit a bid. The highest bidder wins the auction. At the churchs booth will be a variety of theme baskets and gift certificates/cards being auctioned. Some examples of the basket themes are Back to School, Going to the Beach, and Gardening. Gift cards/certificates come from a variety of local places including Fannuccis Caf and Gelato bar in Netcong, Davys Dogs in Mt. Arlington, Netcong Village Florist, and Weezers Gifts in Netcong. The hope is that many people will come to take a look and place bids. In addition to the silent auction, the church will be giving out free lollypops and bottles of water. Everyone is welcomed to come by the booth.
By Elsie Walker eptember 8th is a busy day for the Stanhope United Methodist Church. On that day, Stanhope United Methodist Church welcomes the community to its 9:30am outdoor service. The service will include a remembrance of 911. After the service, the church is inviting those who attend to stay for the annual

* Host a family get-together on or around September 11. Celebrate the life of those people who were lost on that day and focus on the positive memories. * Initiate a scholarship fund in memory of a lost relative or friend. Many businesses or even the place of employment of the deceased may be willing to contribute money to the effort. This way the individual's name will live on and be associated with something positive for years to come. * Volunteer time at a firehouse in the area or with an EMT unit. Volunteer EMTs and fire fighters are in short supply. Becoming a part of one of these units enables people to help others. * Survivors can share their stories with school children or others, imparting knowlcontinued from front page edge about the events as they unfolded. This is a strong lesson in American history and bravery. * Make a donation to a charity that offers financial support to those impacted by the events of 9-11. Be sure to check out the charity to ensure that funds are appropriated properly. * Plan a visit to downtown New York City to see the progress that has been made in rebuilding the area, and visit the memorial that has opened to honor those who lost their lives. While September 11, 2011, will live in infamy as a traumatic and horrific moment in American history, people can focus on the positive aspect of the heroes and find ways to honor their memories.

he Stanhope Public School of Stanhope, NJ announced that it has added a newly revised and expanded inclusive preschool program. This program offers a state certified teacher, along with many of the benefits and programs students in grades K-8 experience on a daily basis. The Stanhope Schools curriculum will feature a Department of Education approved curriculum and give pre-school students access to the school nurse, cafeteria lunches, school assemblies and other public school professionals, as needed. The Stanhope School Districts offerings are integrated into the day-to-day curriculum at the school. Through lessons in such topics as literacy and mathematics, as well as activities such as dramatic play and arts and crafts, the children will learn pre-readiness skills and appropriate social behavior. They will also begin to learn and practice the behaviors and attitudes that demonstrate good character and good values. Deborah McNear, Stanhopes preschool teacher, noted: These readiness skills don't come naturally for preschoolers. Children learn in so many ways, not just scholastically, and our program will allow us to further our focus on fostering all elements of a childs development. We are utilizing a cur-

ues. Once made, a Marine will forever live by the ethics and values of the Corps," the official website of the Marines reads. The Marines live by a code of honor, that civilians may not know about. We owe respect to them for their integrity and bravery. "A code of personal integrity, honor guides those who do the right thing when no one is looking. It is not only a duty, but also a distinction, as those who possess honor are held in honor. It's found in one's beliefs, but exhibited through one's actions. Marines are held to the highest of standards, ethically and morally," reads the website. We respect these individuals for their integrity, as they serve as an inspiration to us. These are, of course, the reasons why we should honor those in our armed forces. Their strength and skill is a lot of the reason why we have our freedom. This should not go unnoticed. In addition to his time in the armed forces, Burns has attended County College Of Morris for Business Administration, and notes that he will probably be back there before too long. Since his years in the military, he has done some travelling, but he has not been able to go scuba diving lately. Ryan, in his spare time, works on his 1969 Camaro. He now meets up with other marines he served with - about once per year. They meet up in Las Vegas, and were to meet up in Ireland as well, but Burns was the only one to follow through on that trip. His sister Kristen Burns, who we featured in an article last month, "went to boot camp while I was in Iraq," he said. Kristen Burns, a Morris County resident, currently holding the title of Program Analyst, Fuze & Precision Armaments Technology, at Picatinny Arsenal and served in the National Guard from 2006 to March of this year, when she joined the Army Reserve. She is now with Psychological Operations in Jersey City, building relationships, as part of a civil affairs directive, with those that we work with overseas. Members of the public can contact this reporter to notify us of other veterans and their successes. We are trying to do ongoing features, when possible, of those serving in our armed forces. Our goal is to give credit to the brave ones who are helping to keep us safe. They certainly deserve this, so it is the least we can do. In other Hopatcong news, another young man is doing a great deed that should be recognized. Currently working on his Eagle Scout achievement, Wolff is constructing a wooden ramp at the home of a handicapped student in Hopatcong that will serve as a safe and easy path to the school bus. Chase Wolff , 16, began his Eagle project at 103 Papakating Road last Saturday, August 10th. Wolff, with the help of his Scoutmaster's and Scouts will be demolishing and existing cement pad with a piece of wood as a ramp for a handicapped classmate. They will be working diligently and hoping that by Thursdaythey will have completed a new 10 x 8 pad level with the home and 12 foot ramp leading to the driveway so that when September comes and the child goes back to school, he will have a new ramp leading him to his bus. There are many people involved from town, and some are private contractors as well. Wolff's mother Judi Wolff said "These wonderful people will be donating their time and wares for this to happen." A definte good
By Ejvind Boccolini he Musconetcong News has been featuring men and women who are serving in our armed forces, as well as veterans who have served our country. So far, we have focused on Hopatcong, likely because of how well this community is already honoring them. Other communities can contact this reporter with information on individuals from their communities. From Hopatcong, this week we feature Marine Ryan Burns. We will continue to tell the stories of local armed forces personnel. Ryan Burns, now 29, enlisted in the Marines in January of 2003, was in boot camp in 2004 and by 2005 he was with the 3rd reconnaisance battalion in Okinawa, Japan. He currently works at Picatinny Arsenal, and we thank him for his committment and service. As part of the Marine mindset - the strategical warrior mindset - "No two operations are identical, and no Marines prepare for only one type of mission." With their training and courage, they serve on some of the most significant missions for our country. Indeed, Burns has also served in Iraq, and served on the U.S.S. Essex - an aircraft carrier in the Phillipines. We thank him for his bravery and service. Burns lived in Hopatcong since he was eight years old and graduated from Hopatcong High School in 2002. He said he misses the comraderie he experienced in the Marines and added that 90 percent of the security guards at Picatinny are all veterans, like him. Burns said in a phone interview last week that he also misses the tropical weather he enjoyed while serving as a Marine. He admits that the deployments were "rough" indeed, but he was able to keep fit and have some fun with snorkeling, running, skydiving, and scuba diving while in Okinawa. "Regardless of the mission, Marines are prepared to face down the threats of our time." Certainly, this is why this is why they are the trusted few. "Marines are entrusted by our nation to both defend its interests and represent its val-
thing in Hopatcong. "Eagle Scout is the highest rank attainable in the Boy Scouts program," it reads in a Wikipedia entry of Eagle Scout. Since its introduction in 1911, the Eagle Scout rank has been earned by about two million young men. "Eagle Scouts are expected to set an example for other Scouts and to become the leaders in life that they have demonstrated themselves to be in scouting," it reads. Please feel free to contact this reporter with additional information on good deeds occuring in your community - and certainly on veterans or those currently serving in our armed forces. Their good deeds help us, and their efforts are appreciated. We thank them for their most valuable service to our country.

By Elsie Walker t started about 20 years ago. Byram resident Carol Barry had always made banners out of felt and fabric for her church, but suddenly, she felt found herself going in a new direction. After visiting many small churches and large cathedrals around the world, she had experienced for herself the inspiration that beautiful artwork can provide. She wanted to give some of that to her own church, the First Presbyterian Church of Stanhope It started with a painting for a special event at school (Barry taught art in Mt. Olive Township for 40 years). That blossomed into about a dozen more works and what Barry now sees as a ministrya ministry she wants to share with other churches and groups. Hanging like banners in the Presbyterian church sanctuary, the topics of Barrys paintings include The Old Testament, the New Testament, images of progress, and mages of what has impacted the world for better or worse. Most works are not a single image, but contain a myriad of them, calling the viewer to contemplate them. A departure in style from some of the other works is Gods Peace that Passeth Understanding. The painting resembles a mosaic. Barry works on a size and type of paper that is quite portable so that her works can be easily transported and different ones hung and shown. In that way, they have a banner-style to them. A question Carol Barry frequent hears is, how long did it take you to do that? Looking at Barrys artwork, it is not surprising that people ask, though the answer may be more surprising. The thought process takes the most time, said Barry.

She is more available for visits other times during the week. Because of the large dimensions of the paintings, it is also sometimes challenging to find a site compatible to display the work. Carol does have a portable stand that displays one piece at a time. Barry sees her art as a new ministry that has opened up to her. In addition to reaching people face to face, Barry is pursuing something shes been encouraged by friends to do for years: working with a company in Newton to make reproductions of many of her pieces. She is also investigating having calendars made for a fundraiser for her church. Art talks, and Carol Barrys pieces are speaking volumes.

The spirit can be found everywhere around the event. Groups showing cars will claim an island in the parking lot as their own and decorate it. Theres a pink flamingo hangout, a tiki bar (nothing served), dop wop corner and more. One group created a 10 pin bowling alley one year. In addition to things to see and do, there are vendors selling food and a variety of items. Besides the fun of the event, there is also giving. Each year theres a big 50-50 drawing to benefit Make-A-Wish. In addition, this year, the Military Transport Association (MTA) will be getting a head start on the holidays by collecting unwrapped toys for Toys for Tots to be delivered to the US Marine Reserve Unit at Picatinny Arsenal. The toys will be distributed to needy children in the north Jersey area. The MTAs jeep will be located in the front Lead East vendor area. Reflecting on the popularity of Lead East( about 15,000 20,000 attend), Cook notes that the event reflects a more innocent time. It was a time that the only gun a child even touched was a toy one, not a real one. The world was not the way it is today.

By Cheryl Conway ost health experts and medical doctors would agree that drinking lots of water daily can only better ones health.but how many have considered the type of water that should be consumed? There is a water on the market that contains antioxidants and alkaline, and through medical studies has proven to improve health while reducing many diseases and illnesses. A medical device was developed out of Japan 39 years ago and works to take out the impurities from tap water. The device that was designed to restructure drinking water is available to hospitals, restaurants and homes world wide and may very well be the best water for drinking, bathing and cleaning, according to experts. The Japanese company claims that its water flushes out toxins better than regular water. You end up with a very powerful antioxidant, says Rick Ercolano of Manahawkin, independent sales representative and distributor of the restructured ionized water, much more powerful than any fruit, vegetable or green tea would give you. Ercolano, who presents weekly seminars about the oxidizing water, says one glass of this water equals 30 glasses of green tea, which is high in antioxidants. The water also contains alkaline which gives you energy and is also micro-clustered, which creates super hydrating water to super hydrate the body. The ionized water is healthy water thats alive that makes people feel better and gives them more energy, he says. According to studies and testimony, the iodized or alkaline water has reduced the risks for diseases and conditions such as acid reflux, gout, arthritis, cancer, diabetes, chronic headaches, back and joint pain, digestive problems, high blood pressure, muscle cramps, eczema and psoriasis, wrinkles and more. There are clinical studies published in the National Institute of Health (NIH) website that show the effectiveness of this water. Cancer lives in an acidic environment but cant survive in an alkaline environment, says Ercolano, a public speaker and wellness educator for more than 30 years. Bottled water can be in storage for six to 12 months. Its not made fresh. Chemicals are in there. He says the water that is sold in the five gallon plastic jugs contain even a greater percentage of chemicals, and many sports
After washing a bag of cherries from the supermarket you can see the discoloration in the water that you would normally consume. When you purchase produce odds are they were sprayed with pesticides. Regular water will not remove oil based pesticides, but using a strong water will remove them, in return keeping you healthier.
It is the only ionizer in the world with a gold seal certification from three organizations which include the Water Quality Association, Natural Sanitation Foundation and the American National Standard Institute. It makes people feel good, says Ercolano. It gives them more energy. It helps build up their immune system with antioxidants. An antioxidant is a donor; if theres an abundance of electrons that are available it helps to protect the immune system. The cost is less than a $1 a day for a family over the next 15 years, he says. Its the next mega trend. Everyone will own one within the next seven years. It works real fast. Mary Lalama of Flanders, who bought the water ionizing machine about two years ago with her husband Joe Nicastro says, The water is really great. It's amazing to see all the chemicals that come off the fruits and veggies that we buy at the supermarket. I make ice tea with it and have the container in the refrigerator. You just put the 9.5 water in with some tea bags, and it brews within minutes, no boiling, nothing. The oxygen in the water permeates the tea bag so easy...but if you try regular water it doesn't do anything. My brother has gout really bad, he bought a filter and he can pretty much avoid any flair ups even when he eats foods he shouldn't, says Lalama. Nicastro says they use the water for drinking, cleaning the food, sterilizing and cleaning without chemicals, feeding ani-
mals and as beauty water. He likes how it does not fill you up and I can drink a gallon of water a day when I can't even finish regular or bottled water which fills me up. Nicastro, who used to drink bottled water, bought the system after I read about the benefits. I also saw a demo that showed drinking one can of soda I would need six glasses of ionized water to get rid of acid. Acid causes the body to have issues. Whether it was energy drinks or even bottled water the effects those were having on my body made me realize that I needed to do something. Ionized water has been the best thing for my health. Since drinking the ionized water, Nicastro says he has more energy, has less sluggish afternoons, less acid reflux and aches and pains. People that try this water see a difference right away, says Nicastro. It is not like taking a vitamin where you wait to see if there is a result. You feel it almost from the minute you drink it. We have enough harmful chemicals in our foods and the air we breathe. This water is amazing and especially children should be drinking this from a young age. Nicastro says It is best to get it fresh everyday has the best strength that way. Very good water and really good for you we love it.
