MAC mural project

continues to keep
the arts alive

Shawnee tops Seneca, 125

Freedom Park mural to be unveiled

with official remarks on June 28
By SEAN LAJOIE
The Sun

SEAN LAJOIE/The Sun

Shawnee midfielder No. 2 Steven Boyle is defended by No. 27 Ian Rattigan as he recovers possession for his team after a costly Seneca turnover as the Renegades cruise by the Golden Eagles by a
score of 12-5. It was a battle between two, three-loss teams that sit atop the Olympic Conference.

Keep the arts alive. This is

the motto the Medford Arts Center has been using in an attempt
to continue to be a gateway to the
arts, culture and heritage of
Burlington County.
This local arts center provides
everything from painting to poetry while emphasizing the objective of creating an environment
where the arts flourish.
The MAC has now been running for four and a half years and
was named Burlington Countys
Best Art Gallery in 2014.
The keep the arts alive campaign will culminate with a
mural project that will be unveiled at Freedom Park on Sunday, June 28 along with a party,
music and official remarks.
The opportunity for students
to be a part of a community project is immeasurable. They will
not only embrace their own creativity, but also build upon team-

work and time management

skills, MAC President Cathy Livingston said.
Art teachers and students at
Medford Memorial School and
Haines Sixth Grade Center created designs for a mural to be painted on the side of Freedom Parks
restroom building.
There were roughly 35 seventh
graders and 35 eighth graders
who participated, while nearly
the entire sixth grade entered artwork.
The initial planning and stages
of this project began around January. There were many steps involved, including getting the
township's approval, getting the
schools on board to get their students to participate in the design
contest, launching the crowdfunding site and attempting to get
sponsors for all of the costs such
as materials, promotions, t-shirts
and gifts for the kids.

Memorial Day

108 Kings Highway East

Haddonfield, NJ 08033
856-427-0933

Three-day weekend or a return to a traditional day of remembrance?

Dan McDonough Jr.

chairman of elauwit media

e re all familiar with Memorial Day. We know that it

is a day set aside to honor
the brave men and women who made
the ultimate sacrifice to protect our
country and the freedom we have.
And we know that it is celebrated on
the last Monday in May, thereby creating a three-day weekend for most.
Maybe it shouldnt be that way.
Back when Memorial Day was first
established during the Civil War era, it
was observed on May 30. It had its own
special day, which, many will argue,
kept the focus on the meaning of the
day.
They have a point.
When one thinks of Memorial Day
these days, its easy to lose focus.
There are Memorial Day sales at

Holiday weekend distracts

Memorial Day shouldnt be about sales
or heading to the beach. It should be
about honoring those who died serving
this country. How do you reflect on
Memorial Day?

stores and the kick-off to summer

sentiment. That people have three
days off often overshadows what the
spirit of Memorial Day is all about.
We dont want to sound completely
negative. Many communities still take
pride in holding a thoughtful, meaningful Memorial Day ceremony
and/or parade. We still see flags displayed. We still see a lot of people take
time to honor those who died serving
our country.
But we also cant help but think that

lumping Memorial Day into a threeday weekend has diminished the

meaning of the day at least somewhat. There are too many distractions.
How many of us have made Memorial
Day weekend plans that have absolutely nothing to do with honoring the
meaning of the day?
Memorial Day should be special. It
should be a time when every American reflects on the sacrifices made on
his or her behalf and takes the time to
pay proper respect. Nothing should
distract from those sentiments.
Will the three-day weekend be replaced with a move back to May 30?
Doubtful. Its going to be up to each individual to cut through the clutter and
honor those who made the ultimate
sacrifice.

LRHSD Armed Services Awards Ceremony

honors 37 students joining U.S. armed services
By SEAN LAJOIE
The Sun
On Monday, May 11 in the Lenape Auditorium, 37 Lenape Regional High School District seniors were inaugurated into an elite
group, the U.S. armed services.
There are about 2.2 million citizens active
in the U.S. armed services. This equates to
less than 1 percent of the countrys population, and year-by-year, this number continues to shrink.
As the class of 2015, seniors enjoy their
final days before graduation, preparing to
embark on a new chapter of their life that
includes a new intimidating pressure the
unknown.

Memorial Day Parade is May 25

The Medford Township Council will hold its Annual Memorial
Day Parade and Observances on
Monday, May 25, beginning at 11

KEYNOTE
Continued from page 6

Tonights students have the

added pressure of being a part of

something much bigger than

theyve ever been a part of before, Superintendent of Schools
Carol Birnbohm said. Our students will not only be representing themselves, but they will be
representing their school, their
community, their family and now
the United States of America.
The keynote speaker was Lt.
Col. Justin C. Schaeffer of the
Army Acquisition Corps and Arlington National Cemetery.
Schaeffer graduated from West
Point and, before that, Lenape
High School. However, Schaeffer
also shared his ties with the other
schools in the district.
Having a brother who graduated from Shawnee, attending
Cherokee football camps as a kid
and, though Seneca was not
around in his day, he wrestled
with assistant principal and athletic director Brad Bauer on the
1994 Lenape wrestling team.
Dedicating much of his life to
the armed services in which he
received a laundry list of decorations and traveled to many different countries, Schaeffer still
refers to South Jersey as home.
From all the experiences he
gathered throughout his time in
the services, he stressed two
points to remember as these

young ROTC members head off to

face the toughest 10 weeks of
their lives.
One, never quit, you have
what it takes to succeed. And two,
thank you, what an awesome
choice you made to serve. You are
Americas future, Schaeffer
said.
Some of these students will be
the first in their respective families to take the military route,
while others will be following in
the footsteps of proud veteran
family members who were also
recognized for their services in
the ceremony. These loved ones
played a big role in why a lot of
the students got involved in their
schools ROTC programs with
larger plans to some day join the
services.
I joined to protect my home,
my family, my friends and get out
there and try to make a difference
in the world, Eric Pry of Lenape
High School said.
I joined to keep my nation and
keep my loved ones safe, Patrick
Byrne of Lenape High School
said.
Zach Kincaid of Lenape High
School took a different path that
led him to where he is today.

LRHSD BOE recognizes students who gave back to community

By MIKE MONOSTRA
The Sun
Volunteering is a big part of
Russell Bauers life. Bauer is an
EMT for the Tabernacle Rescue
Squad and is also an Eagle Scout.
Last November, the Tabernacle
community was in mourning
after 44-year-old mother Jeaninne
LePage shot her three children
before turning the gun on herself.
To help the community heal,
Bauer organized a dinner to
honor first responders in the
township.
Stepping up to the plate was
Russell Bauer, Seneca Principal
Jeff Spector said. He said why
dont we recognize the volunteers?
Tabernacles first responders

were recognized for their efforts

in December. In turn, Bauer was
one of four students recognized
last Wednesday.
The Lenape Regional High
School District honored one student from each of its high schools
as part of its annual volunteer
recognition night at last Wednesdays board of education meeting.
Each May, the board holds this
special ceremony to honor one
student from each high school
chosen for the Student Volunteer
Award.
Director of programs and planning Chris Heilig said the district
decided to put a focus on promoting volunteerism within the
school when constructing a longrange plan about six years ago.

Stockings for Kids fundraiser for

the last five years. Cherokee Principal Donna Charlesworth said
Thorntons resilience and positive attitude were a big reason she
was selected.
Thornton was excited when
she learned she was chosen. She
doesnt just volunteer because its
the right thing to do. She likes to
volunteer because its fun.
I think its cool because you
can make people happy, and its
rewarding to yourself, too,
Thornton said.
In some cases, volunteering

runs in the family. Shawnee winner Catherine ORorke is the second person in her family selected
for the Student Volunteer Award.
Her brother Matthew was selected in 2013.
In her essay, Caty talked about
how volunteerism is in her
blood,
Shawnee
Principal
Matthew Campbell said.
Catherine earned the award
through the many food and collection drives she has run for the
Food Bank of Southern New Jersey, Cedar Run Wildlife Refuge
and Paws Farm. A member of the
dance team, ORorke also teaches
dance to younger children in her
free time.
Jacob Demree, the student volunteer of the year from Lenape,
has volunteered in many organi-

zations from churches to homeless shelters. This year, he played

a key role in organizing a National Honor Society lawn cleanup at
Holiday Village.
Volunteering himself is not
enough for Demree. Part of his
mission is to get as many of his
peers involved as he can.
You definitely have to volunteer, Demree said. Its a choice
in which you live your life.
All award recipients plan to
continue volunteering when they
head off to college next fall. Each
also encourages their fellow peers
in the school community to
continue volunteering themselves.
Go out and give it a shot,
Bauer said. Volunteering is very
fun.

BOE honors
returning alumni
We are now scheduling SPRING CLEANUPS!

As a child, Kincaid suffered a

traumatic injury to his skull,
leaving him with less than a 10
percent chance to live. After he
was able to overcome these odds,
he decided he would dedicate his
life to his country.
I technically shouldnt have
lived, so after surviving that experience, I feel that I need to spend
the rest of my life trying to save
others, Kincaid said.
Unlike many of their friends
who will soon be packing to leave
for the Shore or college, this select group will be packing a much
smaller bag consisting of the bare
essentials and heading to basic
training.
Basic training, or as many call
it boot camp, is undoubtedly
grueling, as Schaeffer assured,
but he also guaranteed the everlasting memories and friendships
these students will take with
them afterward will make the entire process worthwhile.
Dig deep, remember an ounce
of discipline is worth a ton of regret, and keep going, Schaeffer

said.
The school districts goal in
holding the ceremony wasnt just
to honor military personnel, but
to create a Lenape community
where military alumni can return home.
These alumni stood for a powerful round of applause at the beginning of the ceremony and also
took the stage to receive awards
from the LRHSD Board of Education members and a selection of
principals from the district.
Its nice for these students and
their parents to see alumni from
the district and get the chance to
talk to them as they go off and really understand what a honorable
thing it is that they are doing,
Chris Heilig, the director of programs and planning for the district, said.
This was the sixth annual
Armed Services Awards Ceremony the district has held, and
though the number of alumni
who come back has dwindled
from the first ceremony, this does
not jeopardize the future of this
event.
Even if theres just one person to honor, we're going to continue to do it because its important to honor such a noble cause,
Heilig said.

dination is Livingston along with
her planning committee, which
includes Jim Rosanio, Gina
DeSumma and Linda Calla.
Director of Parks and Recreation Beth Protocallis was also instrumental in coordinating and
promoting this project with the
Medford Town Council.
We approached the council
with the idea and felt that Freedom Park would be a perfect spot
for the mural, Livingston said.
It has a lot of activity that can
raise a lot of awareness for the
art center, and geographically, it

is so close to us, we wanted to

keep our relationship with them
strong.
At its regular meeting on May
5, the Town Council gave the Arts
Center the approval to choose
three winners after going
through the submissions to make
sure they were all appropriate to
put up at the town park.
The winning designs have been
chosen and will be projected onto
the building by the art team and
painted by all the students. There
is also an adult art team from the
art center who was able to rally
some instructors, Dorothy Amsden, Molly Gummerson and Dave
Bullock, to help with the painting
process.
Livingston forwarded the winners to the principal and the art

teachers, Nancy Ohotzke and

Robyn Corum, because she
thought it was appropriate for
them to announce the winners to
the students. However, she personally called each parent of the
students who won to congratulate
them.
They were so excited and
couldnt wait for the project to
begin, Livingston said.
This process is scheduled to get
underway on Saturday, June 6
from 9 a.m. to noon. In the meantime, Livingston is doing her due
diligence as far as obtaining all of
the materials and panels that
need to be put up before this date.
All things considered, were
trying to raise awareness about
the arts and engaging young people in a process thats bigger than
themselves, Livingston said.
Its so much more than just art.
Its learning a skill set, its looking at something and being able
to read a little deeper, working in
a group as a unit, learning how to
start something and taking it
from baby steps to the end where
they will be transferring the
image to the panels.
Crowd sourcing will provide
the funding for this project as
well as sponsors. Hands-on volunteers are appreciated also. Visit
www.indiegogo.com/projects/ma
c-mural-project for more information.
If all goes well, the vision is to
repeat the project in three years
with a new group of students.
