Charting A New Option: Marlene Chose Capital!

Aquatic Adventures
L
ast week was a
little chilly,
especially for
August in southern
New Jersey. Despite
this, I found some
youngsters diving into
a pool and others play-
ing in the area's only
splash park. I guess
kids are bound to
swim when it's in the
60s and cloudy if there
are few days left
before there's no
swimming at all.
At the 55-year-old,
but gleaming, private
Northwest Swim Club
in Vineland and the
first-year, but already
hugely popular, public
Splash Park in Bridgeton, the hardy swimmers told
me how much fun they have in the sun and the
water as summer comes to a close.
At the swim club, I asked eight-year-old
Anthony Seagle if he thought it was too cold for
swimming. He looked puzzled. He said, No, some-
times we come here every day.
His 10-year-old friend Dominic Regalbuto, in
between practicing graceful dives from the spring-
board, told me how much his pool and, especially,
his swim team mean to him. He said hes been
swimming since he was five.

arents of children in and around Cumberland
County have a new option this school year. On
September 5, The Compass Academy Charter
School (CACS) will begin its inaugural year, offering a
public school alternative for students in kindergarten
through second grade.
With the schools impending opening, there has
been some confusion locally about what exactly a char-
ter school is. The schools website defines it simply:
A charter school is a public school that operates
independently of a local school districts board of edu-
cation under a charter granted by the Commissioner.
Once a charter is approved and established, the school
is managed by a board of trustees with status as a pub-
lic agent authorized by the State Board of Education to
supervise and control the school.
The result is a school with smaller classroomsizes,
and an ability to create a more diverse curriculumwith-
out having to answer to a local Board of Education.
Inhabiting the building that was once the Little
Acres Learning Center, a now defunct preschool that
resides on Redeemer Lutheran Churchs property,
CACS will have a student population of 105, overseen
by six teachers and two aides. Students will be mostly
coming from Vineland, Pittsgrove and Millville, bussed
in by their respective district. However, students out-
side of those three districts are also eligible to attend,
the only catch being that they must provide their own
transportation. This year, a family from as far as

he Bridgeton Atlantic Street
House (ASH) commune
addressed a number of relevant
issues of the early 1970s, includ-
ing the identity and rights of women. And
as this intentional community evolved, its
female membership increased.
The 1974 entries in the ASH
Chronology reveal a series of changes,
both personal and communal. Dave and
Ceci Fava had separated by the end of 1973
but continued to live at the house. By
spring 1974, Dave moved out and in
September Ceci left with their children
Paul and Emily. Jeanne Garrison and
Virginia Sheppard joined the commune
and were settled in by the time Richard
Nixon resigned his presidency in August.
Over the next two years, Susan Renton and
Nancy Sowell would also move into 138
Atlantic Street.
I was invited to fill a temporary vacan-
cy at Atlantic Street house, Garrison
recalled, which was inhabited by people I
had come to know during the Tri-County
[Mobilization Against the War in Vietnam]
days. Then they couldnt get rid of me.
I was asked and moved into ASH as a
result of meeting Jeanne Garrison through
a college roommate, Susan Renton-Dice
explained, and being introduced to the
other house members in 1976, a year after
graduating college. I was used to living
with people coming from a large family
and college life and welcomed an inten-
tional family arrangement.
According to ASH co-founder Maggie
DeMarco, the commune afforded an
opportunity for womens self-sufficiency
that was not one of societys priorities at
the time. I found the support to pursue
my interest in everything mechanical [such
as] fixing machinery and houses, rebuild-
ing furniture she said. At the time
there was no social support for women to
learn these things, let alone to work at
them.
Ceci Brandt, who was married to Dave
Fava at the start of ASH, reminisced about
a unique situation available at the time.
The Bridgeton location was near a peach
orchard in Shiloh owned by a Quaker
farmer who gave me and Maggie the
opportunity to share a job not traditionally
available to women, she said. We worked
side by side with the other workers, all
male, and picked up many skills such as
pruning, mowing and planting. From that
position we created a women's crew of
workers who worked in the orchards at
harvest time picking apples and peaches.
What the commune members were dis-
covering was a growing number of women
who sought the same self-sufficient expe-
riences. It wasnt long before work began
on organizing those interested.
There was a thriving womens com-
munity in Bridgeton, Garrison
explained, with women moving down
from Philadelphia. We had conscious-
ness-raising groups and a periodic gather-
ing of women from all over South Jersey,
camping and cavorting, known as Women
of the Sticks.
Asked to elaborate on exactly what this
group was about, Garrison not only provid-
ed more specifics, but traced this collective
to current times. Women of the Sticks
was a women's center without an office,
she explained. We met generally out at
the Girl Scout camp at Shepherd's Mill,
sometimes for an entire weekend. We
learned skills such as canoeing, outdoor
cooking, and rabble rousing. All the
women of the house participatedme,
Maggie, Ginny, Susan, Ceci and Nancyas
well as women we knew from the area and
Stockton State College. [Recently] we start-
ed having a reunion we call Women of
Bridgeton. We are approaching our third
gathering at rotating places. Our first gath-
ering was held last year in Almonesson
with 14 attending. Then we met for dinner
at Maggie DeMarco's home in Bridgeton.
Next we are meeting in Philadelphia. Im
not sure about the dates and not sure if all
of these women were part of Women of
the Sticks, but they all lived in or came to
Bridgeton in the 1970s.
Sowell also identified another facet of
Women of the Sticks. When asked about
the reading material that permeated the
Atlantic Street residence in the 1970s, she
listed a series of books and writers that her
fellow ASH members had also identified,
except for one. In between The Whole
Earth Catalog and Adrienne Rich, she
included our own home grown zine,
Women of the Sticks. I

Making Strides in Fight
Against Childhood
Obesity
Last week the Centers for Disease
Control & Prevention (CDC) reported
signs of significant progress in reversing
the childhood obesity epidemic.
Specifically, between 2008 and 2011, 18
states showed decreases in obesity rates
for low-income preschoolers. Among
these states, New Jersey recorded the sec-
ond largest decrease.
These are the children who have been
at the highest risk for obesity and whose
families have had the most limited
chances to make healthy choices. It is a
testament to all the work being done, by
local groups like ours and national organi-
zations like the Robert Wood Johnson
Foundation, headquartered right here in
New Jersey, to promote healthier
lifestyles for children.
Since 2009, the New Jersey
Partnership for Healthy Kids has spear-
headed efforts in building and strengthen-
ing childhood obesity prevention strate-
gies that support access to affordable
healthy foods and increase opportunities
for safe physical activity in Camden,
Newark, New Brunswick, Trenton and
Vineland. Here in Vineland, our focus has
been on working together to increase
access to affordable, healthy foods and
safe places for residents to be active.
NJPHK-Vineland, the Vineland
Health Department and Cumberland Cape
Atlantic YMCA got five Vineland corner
stores and restaurants to increase the
availability of fresh produce and other
healthy food choices in their establish-
ments by implementing the Food Trusts
Healthy Corner Store Toolkit.
NJPHK-Vineland partnered with the
Alliance for a Healthier Generation and
the Vineland Public School District to
strengthen the schools wellness policy,
also forming a Wellness Council. Landis
Intermediate won the Alliances Bronze
award last year, which recognizes schools
for creating a healthier menu track to
qualify for the silver award, and Petway
Elementary will qualify for bronze.
Vineland High School added two
menu items made with Jersey-grown
fresh produce, resulting from the collabo-
ration of NJPHK-Vineland, the city of
Vineland Health Department, the Alliance
for a Healthier Generation, Rutgers Food
Innovation Center, Vineland Public
Schools and food vendor Sodexo.
City of Vineland Engineering,
Planning Health and Economic
Department created bike lanes, crosswalks
and share-the-road signage on Elmer
Street and Wood.
Healthy Kids Champion worked with
schools on the introduction of a new
Healthy Ua structured recess program
taught during the school day options.
While we celebrate this good news, we
must keep in mind the road ahead. Theres
still much left to do. If this report shows
us anything, its that the communities and
states that are making robust, comprehen-
sive changes can achieve success in
reversing the childhood obesity epidemic.
But there is no single change that works.
We will succeed only if all sectorsour
schools, our communities, our businesses,
our workplaces, our grocery stores, etc.
work to help children and families make
healthy choices where they live, learn,
work, and play.
Our combined efforts have resulted in
some of the most significant progress in
the fight against childhood obesity in
recent history. With this in mind, we need
to continue this fight and redouble our
efforts to ensure that our children have
the bright and healthy futures they
deserve.

T
ime was, when we thought of
enjoying an ice-cold beer or a
refreshing cocktail at an outside
bar as balmy summer breezes
fanned our faces and a lazy guitar soothed
our souls, our thoughts turned to the many
beach bars in our nearby shore communi-
ties. The only problem was the sometimes
precarious hour or so drive back home.
However, those in-the-know are aware
of a beautiful oasis right here in Vineland.
This oasis is called Lunas Outdoor Bar and
Grille, located at 4940 East Landis Avenue
in East Vineland. The year-old patio bar
and grill, the brainchild of Tom Merighi, Jr.
who owns Merighis Savoy Inn at the same
address, welcomed its first customers in
April of 2012. The grand opening turned
out to be beyond our expectations,
Merighi proudly exclaims.
The way he sees it, We took nothing and
made it into something really special. The
area that Luna nowoccupies was previously
devoted to housing trash bins and under-
used overflow parking. It has since been
re-purposed to accommodate a casual and
beautifully appointed multi-level bar and grill.
When you think of a deck, you might
think of planks of wood nailed together
supporting an array of picnic tables or
white plastic tables and matching chairs.
And although there is nothing wrong with
that scenario, its just not Luna. This come-
as-you-are deck is strikingly attractive,
modern and upscale.
Large arched, open-window spaces cre-
ate a cool breezeway under lofty domed
ceilings where overhead fans lazily spin.
The long, curved bar is capable of accom-
modating more than a dozen hungry and
thirsty people, and its two large wall-
mounted TV screens are ready to host
Saturday and Sunday football games come
September. Patrons can also enjoy all this
from comfortable neoclassic furniture or
from high tops shaded by colorful umbrel-
las that dot the outer perimeter of the deck.
Merighi states: We created Lunas in
Savoy style, because thats the only way we
know how to do things. The arched trellis
that canopies the steps leading up to the
deck is footed by an arrangement of lush
summer flora. Towering arborvitaes and
other dense evergreen that run along the
side of the deck are not only aesthetically
pleasing, but effectively serve to provide
cooling shade while muffling sounds from
busy Landis Avenue.
The entire concept behind Lunas was to
create casual outdoor comfort. This is a
come-as-you-are bar and grill where
patrons can feel comfortable enjoying the
amenities of the deck whether they are clad
in bathing suits after a day at the beach, just
finished 18 holes or simply want to wear
their most comfortable pair of jeans. Lunas
offers a variety of thirst-quenching draft
beers and signature cocktails that can be
enjoyed with an array of appetizers, salads,
ribs, burgers, sandwiches and seafood all
under the capable oversight of Chef Shana
Bailey who created Lunas ambitious menu.
The Chef can be seen at Lunas open
kitchen and grill creating sumptuous finger
foods like Bacardi shrimp skewers, or a flat-
bread mounded with crumbled Italian
sausage and tender broccoli rabe under a
molten dome of mozzarella-topped mari-
nara. Another favorite Chef Bailey creation
is the Cubano pannini of pork loin, ham,
Swiss cheese and pickles with mustard
placed on authentic Cuban bread. Its kind
of like Miami meets Vineland! And if you
have a yen for pasta, the penne Savoy is a
must-try. Presented in a cast iron pan, al
dente pasta is bathed in homemade mari-
nara, tossed with crumbled Italian sausage
and swirled with sweet ricotta and oozing
mozzarella. Now thats delizioso!
Thursdays are special at Lunas with
Chef Yoshi preparing fresh sushi. Arriving
from Voorhees for one day each week, Chef

Yoshi turns out a colorful array of fresh
tuna, salmon and vegetable sushi from the
seafood that arrived that very morning.
Tuesdays are also a cause for celebration
with trivia games with DJ Charlie and 49-
cent wings in seven different sauces.
Because it proved so popular in July,
Lunas is bringing back its blue claw crab
special on Sunday, August 25. For only
$21.95 you receive six juicy #1 crabs, salad,
Italian bread and either red or white lingui-
ni. Because it so popular, reservations are
recommended for seatings that take place
at noon, 3 p.m. and 6 p.m.
Cocktails on Lunas menu are just as
unique and tempting as the food. One
dubbed The Butchie combines oranges,
cherries, vodka and soda. The Sweet
Melissa is an interesting blend of coconut
vodka, muddled basil and sours. And the
house signature cocktail is aptly called the
Luna-tic, a blend of vodka, limoncello,
agave, blue curacao and ginger ale.
So if you enjoy spending time outdoors
with a cocktail, casual fare and football or
live entertainment, then you will want to
check out Lunas Outdoor Bar and Grille. I
Lunas Outdoor Bar and Grille is located at

s I pointed out in last weeks col-
umn, renovation work has begun
on some buildings downtownat
619 and 623 E. Landis Avenue
and the former Official Time-Out Caf and
Sports Bar at Sixth Street and Landis Avenue.
Two of those buildingsthe 623 E. Landis
Avenue and Time-Out buildingsare being
outfitted with nice apartments upstairs.
This brings me to a topic that has been the
object of discussion through the years in
many downtown areasupstairs living
accommodations above downtownbusinesses.
Arguments for and against living accom-
modations above downtown businesses
have been going on for a long time.
Those who argue against this arrange-
ment cite fears including the following
the apartment tenants will take up parking
spaces intended for business customers; it
will encourage loitering and other improp-
er behavior; and the apartments are usually
in poor condition and attract the wrong
clientele. For these reasons, those who are
against upstairs living see it diminishing
downtown property values and making
downtowns a less attractive destination.
Those who favor upstairs living see the
apartment tenants as an additional source of
business for the merchants belowand an
additional source of rent for the property
owner. The apartment dwellers are seen as
valuable contributors to a vibrant downtown
keeping buildings occupied, patronizing the
downtown businesses near them, and mak-
ing the sidewalks look busy with activity.
I come down on the side of those who
favor upstairs living. I do so because I see
the tremendous value in having people live
right where the action is. They are going to
be spending their dollars in downtown
businesses to make them prosper. They are
going to be stakeholders in keeping down-
town vibrant and will want successful busi-
nesses to be nearbyas well as dining and
entertainment venues. Off-street parking,
including rear parking lots, can be used to
keep the street parking for business patrons.
My vote in favor comes, though, with an
important qualification. I know that the
apartments in the newly renovated build-
ings are going to be of high quality. That is
so very important. Too often, downtown
living has gotten a bad reputation because
some apartments have not been maintained
adequately. Many downtown areas have
very successfully maintained downtown
living space with very attractive upstairs
apartments and we can do the same. It is an
important way to make our downtown not
only a destination for shopping, dining, and
entertainment, but also a great place to live.

In Our Schools
I
Vineland Schools Honored for Fundraising Efforts
Vineland Public Schools
has been honored for the
second consecutive year
with the Public Employee
Campaign of the Year
Award from the United
Way of Greater
Philadelphia and Southern
New Jersey in Cumberland
County.
The award was present-
ed at the organization's
annual campaign and
awards celebration held
July 31 at the Savoy Inn.
The district raised a total of $12,514 for the United Way, almost eight percent
more than the 2011 total, according to statistics provided by the organization.
The award was presented by Alice Woods, Executive Director and Claire
Sapienza-Eck, Board Chairperson, of the UWGPSNJ.
"We had a difficult time (with fundraising) in the public sector this year," said
Sapienza-Eck. "But one campaign remained a shining beacon of hope for the
divisionVineland schoolsand the award will stay in its home base from last
year. This award also demonstrates the best creativity, participation and spirit.
I'm proud to recognize the Vineland schools and this campaign proves that the
United Way is still alive and people still care about our work. (The district) con-
tinues to have contests, incentive, and team captains. They give us hope that we
can continue to grow and get more people involved every year. Thank you for an
outstanding effort and continued support."
Said Dr. Mary Gruccio, Superintendent, "I am very proud to accept this award,
but I am only accepting on behalf of the wonderful people that I work with, the
people that have joined me tonight, I thank them."
"I also want to thank the people who were unable to be here this evening, but
it is because of the wonderful leadership in our district that we're able to do
what we do for the United Way," she said. "Our principals have been creative
with ideas to raise money. They're always there whenever I ask for support, and I
am truly blessed and grateful to work with such wonderful people. I thank all the
people from the Vineland School District, and I thank you again for the honor.
Gruccio also said she was "very proud to serve on the United Way board. I
believe in its mission, and I'm very thrilled."
Overall, Cumberland County contributed more than $500,000 to fund 17 pro-
grams that provide resources for the education, health and financial needs of its
157,000 residents.

Back-to-School Hair Tips
With school days just around the corner,
its time to start getting your locks back to
their moisturized, non-frizzy state. The
suns hot rays and chlorinated swimming
pools can be very harmful to hair. To undo
the breakage and splitting:
Start with a good trim.
Wash hair with gentle shampoo to
help moisturize the hair shaft.
After each shampoo, lock in moisture
with a good instant conditioner.
Air dry as much as possible before
blow drying.
Use a heat styling product before a
hair dryer or irons.
Use home remediesproducts such as
honey, which is a natural humectant, as a
well as avocado and egg yolk.
Professional salon conditioning treat-
ments are the ultimate.
Give your hair the sulfate-free nutri-
ents that will enable hair to regain and
retain its elasticity and strength.

Registration Open at YMCA for
Before and After School Care
The school year will begin soon, and the
YMCA of Vineland has opened its registra-
tion for Before and After School Care. This
is offered through the Y at all nine public
elementary schools in Vineland, plus at the
Y itself. Each site has a coordinator and
trained staff to provide daily activities. The
schedule corresponds to the public schools
and includes holiday care when the schools
are closed.
Graceanne McGinnis directs the Ys
Before and After School Care programs. She
said, We serve the children with lots of
options to develop their interests and talents.
At the Y, we believe the values and skills
learned early, such as in this setting, are vital
building blocks for future quality of life.
Prices vary according to the schedule.
The program includes homework time,
crafts, science, snacks, physical exercise,
and many other activities. The Y program
additionally includes pool time. Each site
uses the Healthy U curriculum, which
promotes physical activity and healthy liv-
ing. For more details, call McGinnis at 856-
691-0030, ext. 310.

Blackwood in Gloucester County is sending
their child.
The classroom size at CACS will be lim-
ited to 19 students per room. Should the
number of enrolled students exceed the
rigid classroom size limitation, the school
will create a waiting list. If that should
occur, students will be selected to attend by
lottery drawing. Eventually, the school will
cater to students through grade 5.
The schools curriculum will center on
the Let Me Learn philosophy.
Let Me Learn is an advanced learning
system that helps us understand how an
individual takes in the world around them
and makes sense of it, said Jane Berger,
Facilitator of Teaching and Learning for
CACS. Then we help them create strate-
gies. We help children self-regulate, so they
know how to work with one another and
themselves, at age 5 and 6.
The program also assists teachers in
knowing how to respond to individual chil-
dren, helping them to cater to the learning
style of each one. All of the schools teach-
ers are trained in Let Me Learn.
Were working really hard to create a
collaborative environment for our teach-
ers, said Berger. We want our teachers to
work together. Schools dont often allow
time for team building, and were working
hard to be able to allot time for that here.
This type of collaborative strategy also
calls for the involvement of parents in the
learning process, which CACS Principal,
Sue Little, says is another big focus of the
schools mission.
Were going to reach out to parents
with workshops and learning situations in
the evening, she said. We want them to
understand what their children are talking
about and be able to bring the Let Me
Learn program to the home. Itll create a
new awareness for parents about their
child and the best way to interact with
them and help them.
We also strive to learn from the par-
ents, added Berger. We recognize that
students dont come to us as empty vessels
and there is plenty to learn about the chil-
dren by working with their parents.
In terms of subject matter, CACS will be
similar to other area public schools.
We have to follow state standards.
Students are required to take the same
state assessments as any other public
school, said Little.
But this wont prevent CACS from
broadening the curriculum. There are plans
for monthly Service Learning Days, where
students are exposed to volunteer work with
Vineland service organizations, and Making
Sense Days, which help the students under-
stand the world outside of school. Parents
are invited to participate in both.
An organic garden, which was con-
structed by some volunteer parents and
students this summer, is going to be promi-
nent in lesson plans throughout the year.
Despite its location on a church ground,
CACS has no religious affiliation, and there
wont be any influence on the curriculum.
As a public school, were not allowed
to have any type of religious influence,
Berger said. The education building is
separate from the church or the rectory.
Its closed off.
Pastor Gary Stiegler, of Redeemer
Lutheran, confirmed that fact.
The church is excited about the gift of
this building and being able to share it and
have it operating again, he said. But out-
side of overseeing the school as a tenant,
we really have very little involvement. Its a
public school and were separate.
With about two weeks before the
schools opening, everyone involved seems
eager to get things underway.
What I really want is for the year to go
quickly, so we have the experience to be
able to tell people about it, said Berger.
Im excited for parents and students to
experience something that theyve never
experienced before in the schools that
theyre in right now. I
The dedication of Compass Academy
Charter School will be held on Friday,
September 6, 2013, at 10 a.m. For more

My whole family swims; I come here
every day for practice for the team; I love
it, he said.
Among the older, female, crowd there
was no diving and, actually, no swimming
that day. Emma Stratoti, 15, a Shalick High
School sophomore who lives in Vineland,
was just getting some sun. Her friend,
Gina Smaniotto, also 15 and a Shalick stu-
dent from Vineland, said, I'm catching
some rays before I go on vacay.
The girls attend Shalick under New
Jersey's Interdistrict Public School Choice
program. Smaniotto is now in that school's
dance academy. Participation in school
choice is competitive; both girls are excel-
lent students.
Smaniotto said shes been coming here
basically since I was born. Both girls like
being at the pool with friends and men-
tioned that there are Bingo Nights, Pot
Luck Dinners, and Back-to-School and
other parties.
Kaitlyn Conrow, 15, a junior and mem-
ber of the VHS swim team, was on life-
guard duty during my visit. She said its
pretty quiet most of the time and she most-
ly just gives out ice packs and band-aids.
There were two rescues, though. Neither
needed emergency treatment.
Ive wanted to do this ever since I was
a little kid and knew all the lifeguards,
Conrow said.
FOR MY GRANDSONS, Riley Bullock, 4,
and Gavin McKamey, who turned 2 today,
and thousands more kids, Bridgetons
splash park is a water wonderland. Its
called a zero-depth pool. Its a safe layer
of water that can be navigated by even the
smallest child and has fountains, showers,
and other water activities. Admission is $2
for several hours of play.
Melissa Hemple has worked for the City
of Bridgeton for seven years and this year
added the duty of supervising the splash
park. (Hemple also runs the zoo, recreation
department, and public affairs.)
It's very low-stress for parents, much
safer than a pool for toddlers to 10-year-
olds, she noted.
Between 100 and 200 people have come
into the park daily since its opening in
June. Entry is timed when necessary so the
pool is never too crowded. Early in the
summer, there were often lines to get in; as
the summer went on attendance evened
out. There are a lot of group reservations.
By any measure, the $750,000 facility is a
huge success.
It's great for us to see we are a stop or a
day trip for a school or organization, the
director said. She pointed out the proximi-
ty of the free Bridgeton Zoo attracts more
people.
The park closes to the public after Labor
Day, but remains open through September
for rentals.
Private parties for birthdays have
exploded, Hemple said, Its like wow!
So, plunging in or wading, sun bathing
or splashing; the season of water continues
even as the shadow of cold weather lurks.
While floating in the water at
Northwest, 10-year-old Cameron Ippolito
presaged the coming fall months.
I dont swim too much, he said. I do
karate. Its amazing.. I

Soifer Pens Ninth Poetry Book
A Nation of Things, the eighth book of
poems by local poet Mark Soifer, is now
available from Amazon.com and Sun Rose
Words and Music, 756 Asbury Avenue in
Ocean City. The book is priced at $9.95.
The book features interior illustrations
by Jerry Lukas and a full-color, wrap
around painting on the cover by the poets
twin brother, Jesse. It contains 121 new
poems based on the relationship between
people and inanimate objects.
The poems are written in rhyme, free
verse and combinations of the two forms.
There are several concrete or visual poems
included.
Soifer, now 81, has been writing poetry
since he was 15. He has been published in
many magazines and periodicals, including
60 poems in the Pup Tent Poets column
of Stars and Stripes when he was serving in
the U.S.Army in Germany.
Previous books of poetry by Soifer
include Sentiment and Steel, Explosions and
Fragments, The City of Wires, Sunday, A
Primitive Mind, Inifinitys Alley, Its About
Time and A Cat With Nine Tales.
I think the thing that sets this book
apart and makes it more interesting is the
cover artwork by my brother and the fanci-
ful illustrations of individual poems by Jerry
Lukas, the poet said. Both of these men are
recognized professionals in their fields.
For more information, e-mail
mtsoifer@aol.com or call 609-364-4010.
Bridgeton Finds Increased
Energy Savings for Taxpayers
Using a fully automated online
approach, the City of Bridgeton completed
an auction through the State-approved
company EMEX on August 6; all with an
eye toward finding energy suppliers to
serve the Citys various electric accounts,
but ones that would meet the goal of saving
taxpayer dollars.
According to Bridgeton Mayor Albert
Kelly, when all was said and done, the esti-
mated savings in the area of streetlights
would be around $64,000 for two years,
while the estimated savings for municipal
facilities would be approximately $94,000
for that same period.
To some, it may not seem like much,
but these proactive steps we can take to
achieve some savings for the taxpayers in
our community will be at the top of our list
in terms of priorities said Kelly.
The auction, which was actually a
reverse auction, had no less than nine bid-
ders competing against one another, sub-
mitting their bids to supply energy to the
City for periods of six months, 12 months,
18 months, and 24 months respectively.
According to Bridgeton Business
Administrator Dale Goodreau, the winners
were Constellation Energy, with a winning
bid for street lights at a rate of $0.05230
per kilowatt, fixed for a period of 24
months and XOOM Energy for municipal
facilities at $0.08050 per kilowatt, also
fixed for 24 months. While both will supply
the energy, Atlantic Electric will continue
distribution and delivery.
The auction was an effective way to see
what suppliers would offer and it was also
a way to do an instant comparison, so we
ended up with a price that worked for us
and the savings ultimately gets passed on to
the taxpayers of Bridgeton said Goodreau.
In terms of the auction process, the auc-
tion was timed for a total of five minutes
but each time a bidder submitted a lower
bid within the last two minutes, the clock
would reset to the two-minute mark. If the
winning or lowest bid was not challenged
during that two-minute reset period, that
lowest bid stood and the auction stopped.
The bidders were spirited in their bid-
ding and at the end were lowering prices by
.001of a cent. This is a good thing for the
City and one more way we can save taxpay-
er dollars said Goodreau.
This process of bids and reverse bids,
made possible by changes in statutes and a
general move toward deregulation, is one
that the City has been considering for some
time.
As people know, there are a lot of
expenses to government. Part of the job is
to identify how to get the biggest bang for
the taxpayers buck. Energy and competi-
tion was an area that we can do that in
said Kelly.
Sign up now for fall Aviation
Model-Building Classes
Now is the time to register your child
for the aviation modeling classes that take
place on Saturdays from September
through December at Millville Airport.
The classes, sponsored by the Millville
Army Air Field Museum, are held in the
Wyble Library Building next to the
Museumon Saturday mornings from9 a.m.
to 1 p.m. Classes begin on Saturday,
September 7. The cost of the 12-week pro-
gramis $125. A maximumof 12 students are
allowed so sign ups are encouraged as soon
as possible. Parents may register their chil-
dren by calling the Museumat 856-327-2347.
The program, entitled Introduction to
Aviation: Aviation through Model
Aeronautics, is offered by the Millville
Army Air Field Museums Aerospace
Resource Center.
This course is a great way for young
people to learn the principles of flight by
building and flying their own models, says
Howard Bueschel, program director.
Interested parents are invited to partici-
pate, too.
Students ages 12 years and up learn the
basic concepts of flight by building balsa
gliders, then a rubber-band model series
(an introduction to power flight), and, in
the final stage, building and flying engine-
powered models. At the completion of the
course, each student learns how to fly con-
trol-line models, also called U-control
models. At this point the students will
have earned their wings and are officially
members of the Academy of Model
Aeronautics (AMA).
Parents may sign up their children by
calling the Millville Army Air Field Museum
at 856-327-2347. Spaces are limited.
Some of the graduates of a previous class
display the control-line model airplanes
they built and flew at Millville Airport. Back

Big Ideas for Social Change
Members and staff from the Salem-
Cumberland Regional Action Toward
Community Health (SCRATCH) and the
Gloucester Regional Addictive Substances
Prevention (GRASP) coalitions joined more
than 1,700 substance abuse prevention spe-
cialists from across the country for
Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of
Americas (CADCA) 2013 Mid-Year
Training Institute in Austin, Texas July 21-
25.
CADCAs Mid-Year Training Institute is
a unique training opportunity designed
specifically for community-based substance
abuse prevention organizations. The theme
this year was Big Ideas for Social Change.
We were fortunate to be able to spend a
week with other similar organizations from
across the country, learning and honing our
skills so we can more effectively prevent
drug and alcohol abuse, said Beth Mayers,
SCRATCH coalition coordinator. We have
returned re-energized with new strategies
under our belt to tackle drug use and its
associated problems in Cumberland, Salem
and Gloucester Counties.
The SCRATCH and GRASP coalitions
are initiatives of the Southwest Council and
are funded by a grant from the New Jersey
Division of Mental Health and Addiction
Services. For more information on the
coalitions, contact Beth Mayers at 856-794-
1011, ext. 318, Jackie Williams at 856-794-

News in Brief
I
Tips to Lower a Vet Bill
Pet owners vet bills are growing, which
may explain why fewer are taking their
dogs and cats to the animal doctor although
more Americans than ever have pets.
To make matters worse, a 2.3 percent tax
on medical devices that kicked in January 1
includes equipment thats used for animals
as well as people. Items as basic as IVpumps
and scalpels are nowsubject to the tax,
which helps fund the Affordable Care Act.
Even before the tax, the latest survey
showed spending for dog care alone rose
18.6 percent from 2006 to 2012. And even
though cat vet visits dropped 4 percent in
that time, cat owners paid 4 percent more,
says Dr. Rod Block, citing the 2012 U.S. Pet
Ownership and Demographic Sourcebook,
a survey of more than 50,000 households.
Add to that the new excise tax and Im
sure were going to see even more people
torn between paying the light bill and tak-
ing their pet to the vet, says Block, a
board-certified animal chiropractor and
author of Like Chiropractic for
Elephants, (www.drrodblock.com). But
there are simple ways to keep veterinary
costs down, while still providing excellent
care for your petwhether its a dog, cat,
horse or guinea pig, Block says.
Its important to always get appropri-
ate care when your animal needs it, but
you can easily prevent problems, or catch
them early, by simply staying in tune with
your pets physical, emotional and spiritu-
al needs, he says.
He offers these tips for accomplishing
that, and distress signals to watch for:
Is your pet in pain?: Before X-rays
and MRIs, health practitioners relied on
these physical indications of pain: heat,
redness, lumps or swelling, tremors, obvi-
ous discomfort. To recognize the first four,
a pat on the head is not enough. Get used to
taking some quiet time to place your hands
on your pet, and work on honing your per-
ceptive abilities. Being in a rush or having
your mind on what you need to do next will
impede your ability to perceive changes
use the time to simply be with your animal.
If a joint feels warm, it may be inflamed.
Mild localized tremors can indicate a prob-
lem in the area beneath your hand. Lumps
or an asymmetrical feel when you have
your hands on either side of the pet may
indicate growths. Take your time and
quiet your mind. Animals are keenly aware
of intent, and theyll work with you if they
feel your intent, Block says.
Watch howyour pet plays: Its
important that a pet gets physical and psy-
chological stimulation, but those needs
vary with temperament, age, and even how
energetic the pet owner is. Pets tend to
match their owners energy levels, for
instance, very elderly owners will tend to
have pets that like to nuzzle and curl up
next to them, Block says. Take note of how
your pet plays so youll be aware of
changes. Is he becoming more aggressive?
He may be telling you somethings bother-
ing him. Has she stopped hopping up on
the couch? Is he favoring a paw (or hoof?)
Beyond the physical, your pets play can
also communicate emotional distress. For
instance, if he becomes fearful or timid,
consider any changes in the home, routines,
etc., that may be affecting him.
Have a thorough neuro-muscular-
skeletal examdone. A veterinary chiro-
practor can examine a pets frame, muscles
and nerves for areas that may be pre-dis-
posed to injury, and suggest ways you can
help protect them. In dogs, cats and horses,
joint injuries are common, with muscle and
tendon strains and tears. Problems with the
spine can lead to compressed or herniated
discs, and neck issues can lead to mobility
problems and even seizures. If you know
your pets vulnerabilities, you can take
steps to prevent injuries.
If you decide to take your pet to a chi-
ropractor, make sure he or she is certified
by the American Veterinary Chiropractic
Association, says Block, whos been treat-
ing people for 43 years and animals for 16.
Find one who is in tune with ani-
malsa host of technical skills does not
compensate if the practitioner is not in
tune with his patients.
Dr. Rod Block serves as a chiropractic con-
sultant to numerous veterinary practices in
Southern California and is an international
lecturer on animal chiropractic.
Dog Myths That Can
Lead to Tragedy
Dog behaviorist Melissa Berrymans has
spent years studying dog bites and is the
author of People Training for Good Dogs:
What Breeders Dont Tell You and Trainers
Dont Teach www.ptfgd.com. She also
teaches classes on safety and liability pro-
tection for dog owners.
Dogs often pay with their lives for mis-
takes made by people, Berryman says.
Prevention has to be the priority. Sure, its
cute to us when the baby hugs the dog. But
dogs do not say I love you with a hug.
When one dog hugs another, its an act of
domination. It should be a given that peo-
ple do not hug dogs. Yet the message for
children to hug dogs is prevalent in our cul-
ture and the facial bites continue.

NEW CLIENTS
Some other common misperceptions
people have about dog and human behav-
iors are:
1. Myth: Whengreeting a newdog, you
shouldextendyour handfor it to sniff.
Fact: Dogs dont sniff each others paws
when greeting and like us prefer to be asked
before being touched by a stranger. Instead,
ask the owner and then also ASKthe dog by
tapping your hand on your thigh simulating
a wagging tail and act friendly. The dog will
relax and nuzzle you, need to sniff more to
get to knowyou or will stay away.
2. Myth: Breed dictates temperament.
Fact: Dogs, first and foremost, are preda-
tory canines that live in groups. Breeds are
generalizations that enable breeders to bet-
ter market the product they sell. What dic-
tates temperament is their pack position,
the role you, the human, play in the group
and the rank of group members. Dogs have
superior/inferior interrelationships and
command and defer accordingly. And just
as siblings in a family have the same par-
ents yet are very different, one cannot pur-
chase behavior by buying a dog of a certain
breed.
3. Myth: When a dog charges, there is
nothing you can do.
Fact: When a dog charges you, its trying
to decide if you are friend, foe or prey.
Their eyesight is poor so hats, sunglasses
and other objects you may push or carry
can scare them. Act like a friend and pre-
tend you are not afraid. Stand facing the
dog with relaxed body language, tap your
thigh with your hand and use a high-
pitched voice for a friendly greeting like
good girl. Fake it if you are afraid.
4. Myth: Posting a "Beware of Dog"
sign will protect you fromliability if your
dog injures someone on your property.
Fact: Dogs can only read body language.
These signs make people react to your dog
in a fearful manner, which is more likely to
cause a dog to consider visitors prey and
bite them. Use No Trespassing and Dog At
Play signs instead.
5. Myth: Only bad dogs owned by bad
people bite.
Fact: Even responsible dog owners oper-
ate under the same false beliefs about
human and canine behavior. They are also
encouraged to take a passive role concern-
ing their dog. Any dog can bite especially
when it feels personally threatened, is
exposed to prey behavior or thinks that
someone lower in rank threatens its
resources, such as food, toys, bedding and
the attention of its owner.
AMassachusetts animal control officer from
1993 to 1999, Melissa Berryman is a national
dog bite consultant who founded the Dog
Owner Education and Community Safety
Council (www.doecsc.org) and works with
communities, rescue groups, dog owners and
bite victims. She also designed and teaches a
safety and liability class for dog owners. She
has worked with more than 10,000 dogs.
Berryman holds an undergraduate degree in
Animal Science Pre-Veterinary Medicine, and
a masters in Public Administration.

Optimism Brightens
Fall Home &
Garden Trends
Lighten up! Thats the
buzz phrase for fall as a
recovering economy fans a
collective determination to
put the bad news of recent
yearsfrom layoffs to natu-
ral disastersbehind us,
says Roy Joulus, CEO of the
award-winning, design-for-
ward Greenbo, LLC,
(greenbo.co).
Well see an insistence
on hope, optimism and joy in the simple
things in life reflected in bright, happy
colors and clean designs with strong
lines, says Joulus, whose innovative new
railing flowerbox, Greenbo XL, won the
prestigious international Red Dot Design
Award for product design in 2012.
As a manufacturer of high-quality
products for urban homes, Joulus says he
and his team must forecast global style
trends two to three years out. Thats why
their new line of garden containers is
made from sustainable and recyclable
materials in uber-upbeat colors, with
attached drainage trays that can be mixed
and matched for custom color combos.
The Greenbo designers also see a grow-
ing demand for products whose form is as
appealing as their function. Thats why
the Greenbo XL railing planter is a flower-
box that you dont have to hide with
flowers, Joulus says.
Consumers desire for sustainability
and green products is only going to con-
tinue to grow; in fact, that was one reason
we launched our company in 2008 even
though the global economy was tanking at
the time, says Joulus. The interest in
gardening will continue to grow, as will
demand for high-grade products that can
either be recycled or are made from recy-
cled materials.
The fall colors, which youll see in
everything from fashion to furniture to the
garden, include bright greens, deep fuschia,
bright orange, fiery red, ochre yellow and
violet. How can you brighten your garden
with these colors? Joulus offers some tips:

that offer a vivid pop of color. Colorful
containers add a carefree, cheerful ele-

d
ment to any gardenwhether its a full
yard, a patio, a balcony, or a cluster of
plants indoors by a south-facing window.
Plastic containers require less watering
than terra cotta or unglazed ceramic, but
be sure to get a very high-grade plastic,
Joulus says. Nothing looks worse than
plastic that has faded and cracked, which
will happen quickly when low-quality
plastics are exposed to the elements. Mix
up the colors, just as you would wildflow-
ers in a garden, or use all one color for
more impact.
Coordinate plant color and pot color.
Play with different combinations to see
what you like. One extreme is the mono-
chromatic approachwhere container and
plants are all the same
color, although shades may
vary. On the other end of
the extreme, a cottage
garden with a jumble of
colors (polychrome) will
work beautifully, too. You
might try pairing contain-
ers and plants from oppo-
site sides of the color
wheel, such as red and
green, violet and yellow, or
blue and orange. Or use
colors that reside side by
side on the color wheel,
such as salmon and violet
or fuchsia and bright red.
Create a pattern of repeating colors
and textures. Containers and plants with
different colors can create an eye-catch-
ing display when arranged so that each
color repeats at a regular interval. For
instance: blue, purple, violet, green, blue,
purple, violet, green. This technique is
sometimes used with border plants, or
plants in linear beds. The addition of col-
orful containers heightens the effect and
adds to the options for placement. Create
a repeating pattern on a railing, along a
patio or even using hanging containers. I
