Chester Girl To Perform In Christmas Spectacular

achel Quiner, 10, of


Chester, has been
selected to perform
the role of Clara for the
Radio City Christmas
Spectacular show in New
York City this holiday season.
Rachel, like many little
ballet dancers, had hoped
to be Clara in the
Nutcracker someday. Last
Christmas, she danced the
part of Fritz with the New
Jersey Civic Youth Ballet at
Centenary College in

Hackettstown. Then in
June she auditioned for the
Radio City production.
They choose only a handful
of girls from more than 60
dancers to be the finalists
in the running for the part.
A few weeks later, Rachel
was surprised and excited
when they called to offer
her the position. It was a
dream come true!
Rachel began dancing at
the age of two. She dances
six days a week at the
North Jersey School of

Dance
Arts
in
Hackettstown. And the
hard work is paying off. In
the spring, she danced at
Lincoln Center as part of
the Little Orchestras
Societys production of
Cinderella. She has won
scholarships at various
dance workshops including: NYCDA, Jump, 24
Seven,
ASH,
and
Adrenaline. She has modeled
dancewear
for
Discount Dance Supply,
Capezio, and Costume
Gallery.
Rachel is the fifth oldest
of eight children and is
homeschooled. In preparation for her performance,
she will begin rehearsals in
mid-October. The show
features the world-famous
Rockettes and closes with a
living Nativity. The show

opens on Nov. 13 and runs


through Jan. 3. There are
over 250 shows and Rachel

will perform a third of


them. Rachel is looking
forward to this amazing

opportunity and to enjoying Christmas in New


York.

rain date of Sun., Sept. 20.
As in past years, participants can set up
at their homes, and for a $10 fee be listed

As an alternative to setting up at home,
household sellers are invited to display
their wares at the centrally-located CFAS
headquarters location at 100 North Road
across from Black River Middle School. A
tax-deductible donation to CFAS of $20 is
requested. Participants should bring one
or two tables; chairs will be provided.
CFAS will provide free popcorn, and soda
and water will be available for sale.
This year, a limited number of spaces at
the Barn at Highlands Ridge Park on

North Road for commercial and retail vendors to display their wares or promote
their services will be available. Each
space will be approximately 10x15, and
can accommodate three to four tables. A
tax-deductible donation of $50 is requested, with proceeds going to the Chester
First Aid Squad. The Barn is a recently
renovated historic building conveniently
located, with restroom facilities for shoppers convenience.
For more information, email: recreation@chestertownship.org; If a household seller and would like to register home
location, contact: http://register.communitypass.net/chestertwp. To participate at the
CFAS location or the Barn location, contact Paul Sidhu at: Pauls838@gmail.com,
(646) 226-1634.
The Chester First Aid Squad (CFAS)
located in Chester is a volunteer, nonprofit, organization that provides emergency
medical services to sick and injured residents of Chester and surrounding towns.
CFAS was established in 1945 and
became independent from the Chester

Volunteer Fire Company in 1987. CFAS


currently operates three ambulances and a
support unit and consists of approximately 40 members, most of who are certified
Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs).
On average CFAS runs more than 800
emergency calls a year. CFAS works
closely with the Chester Vol. Fire

Company, and Chester Borough and


Chester Township Police Depts. In addition to these local organizations, CFAS
works with other mutual aid squads in the
area, hospital-based paramedics, and state
and private aeromedical helicopters. For

Chester Theater Hosting Auditions

he Chester Theater Group plans to


have
auditions
for
Doubt.
Performances are Sept. 11- 27 at
Chester Theatre Group.
Sister Aloysius, the strict, traditionalist
principal, learns from Sister James, an
eager, young teacher, that Father Flynn,
the more liberal parish priest, has met in
private with the schools first and only
black student, who is new to the school.
With moral certainty that Father Flynn has
molested the boy, but without proof, she

challenges the male-dominated hierarchy


of the church to remove Father Flynn from
the school. Their battle, complicated by the
boys vulnerable position in his own family, finally casts doubt not only on the
priests reputation and the motives of the
church but on the fundamental integrity of
the nuns faith.
Audition information, cast breakdowns
and audition sides are found at
www.chestertheatregroup.org; or call 908879-7304.

Chester Lions Donates To The Blind

he Chester Lions N.J. Charitable


Foundation Inc. recently donated
$500 to the National Federation of the
Blind of New Jersey.
The money is to be used by the foundations braille enrichment in library and learning program.
The organization raises the expectation
of blind people because low expectations
create obstacles between blind people and
their dreams.
The National Federation of the Blind
knows that blindness is not the characteristic

that defines someone; a person can have the


life he or she wants; blindness is not what
holds people back.
The NJBNJ believes that together with
live, hope and determination dreams are
transferred into reality.
The Chester Lions Club continues to
support worthwhile organizations in its
effort to help those in need. For further

Breakthrough Treatment Now Available In Long Valley

magine thirty to forty years ago if you were told that lasers
would replace scalpels in surgery or that robotic instruments
would build cars; you may not have believed it. By the same
token would you believe that chiropractic treatments could be performed using a special hand-held instrument developed by NASA
scientists; all while you were sitting in an upright position without
turning or twisting movements?
Advances in computers and engineering technologies have
been able to uniquely blend with chiropractic in order to both analyze and treat the human body in such a way that was never before
realized.
According to Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, This new form of computerized treatment is so gentle and effective, that it amazes even the
most skeptical patients. Its called the Impulse IQ Adjuster and is
the latest, state-of-the-art technology in existence today, and the
only one in the Long Valley area
The Impulse IQ Adjuster can safely and gently analyze and treat
the spine and other joints to remove the nerve impingement that is
often the cause of pains in the low back, neck, shoulder and elsewhere in the body. It also works on a variety of muscular conditions to loosen tight muscles with ease and comfort. Many patients
say that its like getting a mini-massage.
It can also help increase the amount of motion in almost any
joint. Even patients with knee, hip and foot problems such as plantar fasciitis are being helped. It is also covered by most insurance
companies including medicare.
Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, the secret to the Impulse IQ Adjuster
lies in its advanced piezoelectric sensor that is able to detect the
slightest amount of restriction in a joint and then deliver an
extremely precise adjustment. He says that Even though traditional forms of adjusting also work, people are drawn to this new
technique because of how gentle it is and does not involve any

twisting, especially in the neck. Many people


love getting adjusted with traditional manual
techniques, all of which are safe and effective,
but there are a large number of people who never
get to experience the amazing benefits of chiropractic because they are scared to have their

spines adjusted in that way, says Dr. Michael S. Hyjek,


Now, there is no longer a reason for anyone to be weary.
The Impulse IQ Adjuster is perfect for anyone who has been
thinking about going to a chiropractor, but hasnt yet made
that decision. Dr. Michael S. Hyjek, wants everyone to be

EPA Provides Help For Clean Water Project In Chester


And Washington Townships; "Trail Tromp" A Worthy Cause

By Ejvind Boccolini
ribbon cutting event was held Aug.
11 to signify the success of a project
to bring clean water to residents in
Chester Township and Washington
Township.
The Combe Fill Superfund is described
as a site where "hazardous chemicals were
found in the soil and groundwater. The site
contains 65 acres of fill area that sits on a
115-acre plot of land in Morris County."
On www.EPA.gov, it notes that the site
was a municipal landfill from the 1940s
until 1981, and in 1978, Combe Fill
Corporation (CFC) bought the landfill.
Procedures at the landfill violated many of
the New Jersey solid waste administrative
codes, while under CFCs management.
CFC went bankrupt in 1981, and the landfill
was not properly closed."
As a result, the EPA (United States
Environmental Protection Agency) helped
out Chester Township and Washington
Township in order to bring clean water to
affected residents. In-home water treatment
systems were used by residents for an
extended period of time and now the EPA

has provided close to $6 million to bring


clean water to residents.
A pipeline has been installed with the
EPA funding, and the source of clean water
is the Washington Township MUA.
Previous to this, short- and long-term
cleanups were planned, several studies were
conducted, and in-home water-treatment
systems were installed for the residents in
the affected area.
The ground water treatment system has
been operational since the late 1990s and a
deep aquifer study was conducted as well to
assess the situation.
In a phone interview earlier this month,
Chester Township Mayor William Cogger
was pleased to say that "it's an opportunity
for the residents surrounding the Combe Fill
Superfund site to get clean drinking water."
He said that since the Washington
Township MUA is providing the clean
water, it is a testimony of how towns can
work together. It is an "excellent" example
of "sharing services" between towns, he
said.
He is, of course, is pleased that the EPA
provided the funding because the near $6

million is a "cost of which we could not


have borne."
Officials worked hard on this project.
As part of the cleanup, the EPA and the
state installed a landfill cover to prevent surface water and rainwater from coming into
contact with the buried wastes. The EPA
continues to monitor the landfill caps effectiveness. A monitoring station is set up in the
Parker Road area.
In other local news, the Long Valley
Village Association and the Washington
Township Health Department will hold the
5th Annual Columbia Trail Tromp, a memorial for Bill Harrington Sr.
It is an event that raises money for pancreatic cancer research, and will be held on
Sun., Aug. 30 at the Schooleys Mountain
entrance to Columbia Trail.
Signs for the event read, A brave man
who taught us we can make a difference.
The event drew many participants in past
years and organizers are calling upon the
community again to do what they can to
support this worthy cause.
Online registration is available at
www.thetromp.com.

The event begins at 7 a.m. for riders and


8:30 a.m. for walkers and runners.
The walk/run/bike route will go through
Califon, continue to High Bridge and then
go back to Long Valley for a total distance of
24 miles. A shuttle bus from Califon and
High Bridge will also be available for those
who choose to only walk/run part of the total
distance.
The rain or shine event will start in the
parking lot at 24 Schooleys Mountain Road
(next to the Long Valley Green Market).
Parking is available at the Long Valley
Middle School on West Mill Road. Shuttles
from the middle school to 24 Schooleys
Mountain Road will be provided.
Those participating as a team are asked to
wear fun-themed clothes, and prizes will be
awarded in various categories.
Pre-registration to participate is required
and can also be completed at www.lvva.org,
(where you will be forwarded to the
www.thetromp.com website). The donation
is $20 per person or $50 per family (up to
four participants), and seniors are $10 per
person. Each participant will receive a t-shirt
and a goody bag.

Local Dance Studio Celebrates 25 Years

heater Dance Center Celebrates 25


Years! Owners Millene Michel and
Mary Ellen Volz started out working
for another studio, when they realized they
had the same goals and passions: dance,
children and a need to inspire others.
Starting out in 1991 at the Knights of
Columbus hall in Flanders, with a few classes and 35 students, today TDC is an award
winning, community serving, studio with
more than 500 students and thousands of
alumni who have gone on to pursue dance as
a profession or thru college.
Its quite rewarding to know that your
former students continue to dance many
years after they graduate, says Michel.
Our dream was to inspire dance and watch
it blossom, not just in the individual student,
but the TDC community through their sharing of what we have inspired.
TDC alumni and their accomplishments
are great, with professional dancers in NYC,
LA, and around the world; dancers who
pursed college dance and won scholarships
to programs; and dancers who have pursued
dance with some of the most elite competitive college dance teams like Rutgers,
Towson, and Syracuse, Alabama.
Most importantly, TDC alumni has
proven to be a group of successful adults
with confidence that shows in all they do.

Peach Festival Hosts Largest Event In Chester

By Jane Primerano
he Chester Community Presbyterian Church Peach
Festival hasnt been around as long as the church, but
it has been a borough event for more than 50 years.
It started out as a smorgasbord, Pastor Chris Scrivens
said as he helped out at the Grandmas Attic tent on Sat.,
Aug. 1.
It soon morphed into a peach festival and now is not only
the churchs largest fundraiser, it is also the largest singleday event in Chester, a place known for attracting visitors
with a farmers market, spring and fall craft fairs and many
other events.
The congregation dates from 1752 and the church building from 1851.
These maples are contemporary with the church,
Scrivens said, pointing to the huge trees in front of the
church.
It brings between 5,000 and 6,000 people to Chester,
Scrivens said. They start lining up at 6:30 a.m. for the 10
a.m. event. Some people were playing cards, he said. He
estimated 1,200 people in line early in the morning.
We talk to the people in line, we socialize, the pastor
said. He said he spoke to people from Vermont, from South
Jersey and a number from New York. Some are flea market
people looking for bargains they can resell.
Nancy Morris, working the White Elephant table, said
she saw the line snaking through the parking lot by 7:30 a.m.
One group of girls drives in every year from Long
Island, Jary Vibilian, who was working with Morris, said.

And Brooklyn people every year, Morris added.


Besides Grandmas Attic and the White Elephant tent,
there is a books and media section, a toy area, a sporting
goods section and a place for lamps and electronics.
In the center of it all is the live auction. Professional auctioneer Wayne Hill was rattling along under a big tent.
He starts at 11 a.m. and doesnt take a break until everything is gone, Scrivens said.
The pastor said an auctioneer hired by the church failed
to show up one year and Hills father, Bunker, stepped in.
His name is Bunker? Scrivens partner at Grandmas
Attic asked. His name is Bunker Hill?
The fathers is, yes, Scrivens answered and went on
with his story. The elder Hill served as auctioneer until he
retired and his son took over.
Scrivens flock is 330 members and it seemed most of
them were helping out.
We have teams of volunteers, he explained. Some sort
through the donations. Teams to sort toys, sporting goods,
electronics, household goods and other items get to work
after a six-week donation period.
We couldnt breathe by the time we closed the donations, Morris said
When asked about the weirdest donation this year, Morris
commented, Did you notice the lace bra under the table?
One year we had a gas mask from World War I,

of machines like the bucking bulls in a country western bar.

Local Expert Shows NJ Parents


How To Get The Most Money For Their
Childrens College Education

ew Jersey parents suffering with


finding ways to pay for their childrens college education can finally
get the solutions to their college funding
problems.
Most families who earn $75,000 or more
and own a home assume they are not eligible for financial aid. However, most families
with income over $100,000 are actually eligible for some types of need based financial aid. They simply need to know how to
get their fair share.
According to Newell, there are several
easy things parents can do to substantially
increase the amount of money they get from
colleges. For example, There are several
schools that historically give better financial
aid packages than others, says Newell. If
families do proper income and asset planning before filling out the forms, they can
increase eligibility by thousands of dollars.
Newell offers a few simple tips to parents
with college funding problems. If a parent
has only half an hour to end their college

funding problems, I would suggest the following:


1. Make sure they do not over-value their
home on the financial aid forms
2. Try not to save money in the childs
name as it weighs more heavily than the parents savings
3. Dont be afraid to negotiate with a college for a better financial aid package.
Newell offers New Jersey parents with
college funding problems a free booklet that
explains the 9 most common college funding problems and solutions. Free copies will
be distributed at the seminar listed below.
Mr. Newell will be conducting a free
one-hour seminar for parents of college
bound high school sophomores, juniors and
seniors at the following location: The
Chester Public Library, on Tues., Oct. 20th
at 7 p.m.

orris Countys history is on view on
main streets and
secluded byways and the
countys commitment to
preserving the evidence of
its past is well known.
The Board of Chosen
Freeholders
recently
announced the historic
preservation grants awarded
on the recommendation of
the Historic Preservation
Trust Fund Review Board.
Roxbury Township historic sites are beneficiaries
of all three categories of
grants: restoration, acquisition and planning.
The Lake Hopatcong
Foundation
received
$192,500 toward the mortgage and restoration of the
Lackawanna
Railroad
Station at Landing, purchased by the non-profit in
November,

Historic Trust Grants Awarded Across County

$450,000 would be needed


to pay off the loan and
restore the building. About
$150,000 was already raised
toward that goal, according
to Donna Macalle-Holly,
grant coordinator for the
foundation.
The station is set to be
used for meeting and display
space as well as providing
roomier offices for the
Foundation,
Board
President Martin Kane said
at the first board meeting
held there.
Were really glad the
county had the confidence in
us to award the grant this
cycle, Kane said, calling
the old station an iconic
structure. He said restoration work will begin by the
end of summer. Structural
problems with the station
will be addressed first.
In addition, the station is
on the Morris Canal

Greenway.
The other grant recipients in Roxbury Township
are in the Ledgewood
Historic District.
The King Homestead
will receive $95,648 for
foundation repair and
repointing, siding restoration and floor framing reinforcement. It is an 1881
Queen Anne style residence
constructed for the proprietor of the King Store, a
general store that served
early Ledgewood. The store,
the King House and the
Silas Riggs Saltbox house
(which was moved during
the construction of the former Ledgewood Circle) are
adjacent in the historic district.
Scott Fullerton of the
Roxbury Rotary which has
been working on the buildings in the Ledgewood
District for about 20 years

said the grant would be used


for the front porch. The
porch is original to the
house, he said. About 10
years ago the Rotary structurally supported the porch
and replaced some spindles
and rails, Fullerton said. He
said the paint on the porch
floor is original.
The work on the porch
will be done by Douglas
Schul, a painting contractor,
at no charge. Matt Oras of
the local Sherwin-Williams
store will donate the paint.
Fullerton said a lot of
people from the township,
Rotary Club members and
historical society volunteers,
will help with the project.
The Ledgewood Baptist
Church, also on Main Street,
is receiving a grant to complete construction documents relating to the reconstruction of the belfry. That
grant is $12,400, according

Park received a similar grant
in 2014 to prepare documents for reconstruction of
the roof of the Little Red
School House, the boroughs symbol. This year,
Florham Park received
$74,000 toward the roof

replacement, according to
Patrick Dolan of the borough Historic Preservation
Commission.
The schoolhouse was
built in 1866, Dolan said. As
a one-room schoolhouse in a
poor, rural area a far cry
from the Florham Park of

today, it would have had a


cedar shake roof. A replacement was put on at least 30
years ago, Dolan said, and it
is dry, brittle and cracked.
Were worried about
leaks, he said. The building
is operated as a museum by
the Historical Society.

Peach Festival...
continued from page 10

We dont ask, she said.


There are also teams of bakers who volunteer, Scrivens said. Some of the baking is
done at the church and some at the
Hacklebarney Cider Mill Farm. Everything
is made by us.
The baking table was staffed by Myra
Wolgamuth, Robin Chu and Martha Smith.
They listed the peach kugen, peach pound
cake, peach rugula and peach turnovers as
the big sellers. The peach pies were gone by
1 p.m.
Boy Scouts from Troop 139, which is
sponsored by the church, assisted with parking cars in the church lot and the old

Williamson School building across the


street.
Proceeds from the festival all go to
church missions, including Meals on
Wheels/Mid-day Friendship Center, Alanon, boy and girl scouts and other groups
that use the church facilities at no charge.
The money also goes to the Chester food
pantry, community soup kitchen of
Morristown, Camp Johnsonburg, project
graduation at area high schools and other
local church missions. They also support the
Appalachia
Service
Project,
the
Newton/Nairobi Partnership in Kenya and
the Namumu Orphanage in Zambia.

The new roof should


last 40 years, he said,
adding, there is huge variety of cedar shakes, the
grain, how they are prepared
and pre-treated. The roof
will need occasional maintenance, something that was
neglected on the old roof,
although the borough
Department of Public Works
does generally does a good
job maintaining the municipally-owned site.
The historical society
maintains its collections and
the garden club does plantings and Christmas decorations, Dolan said.
The schoolhouse is open
once a month and on special
occasions.
Our current mayor considers it his duty to maintain
the school, Dolan said, noting the borough had to come
up with a 20 percent match.
The schoolhouse is on
the boroughs flag, police

cars and everything that says


Florham Park.
It ties to farming and
our simple, rural roots,
Dolan said. It wasnt
remuddled, it has grass surrounding it in an area with
little green space.
On the other side of the
county,
the
Obadiah
LaTourette Grist and Saw
Mill
in
Washington
Township received $52,000
to continue a long-term
restoration project.
The mill is on Route 124
in the center of Long

Historic District.
The
money is to complete a
preservation plan update
and construction documents. The documents relate
to spillway arch repair, siding and window installation,
exterior painting and completion of the flooring on the
second and third floors.
The county awarded a

total of $3.5 million in


grants this year with others
going to such county icons
as the Museum of Early

Morristown received the
most money, $900,087

Local Teen Helps Kids Join Sports Teams, Asks Businesses To Contribute

By Chelsea Cattano
eams For Kids Foundation is a nonprofit organization that enables children from homeless and low income
families within New Jersey to participate in
recreational sports programs.
The foundation is the brain child of Abby
Bauer, a senior at The Pingry School in
Basking Ridge and a resident of Long
Valley.
I started the organization last summer,
which is when we received our 501 (c)(3)
nonprofit status, Bauer said.
The foundation is still growing and molding to the needs of the children residing in
shelters and temporary housing facilities in
Morristown, but the success stories are
flooding in of kids who are now provided
with the opportunity to participate with their
peers in recreational sports programs.
For Bauer, the start of the long yet
rewarding process of running a nonprofit
organization began while she was volunteering at Homeless Solutions, a homeless shelter and low income housing program in
Morristown.

Ive been kind of running a children's


program there since I was 12-years-old,
Bauer said. Two summers ago I was running my childrens program at the shelter
and we were making smores and playing
kickball with the kids at the shelter and this
10-year-old boy named Giovanni
approached me with his baseball glove and
asked if we could have a catch and so I said
sure. We threw the ball back and forth a few
times and I realized that he had a really great
arm and he could toss really well so I asked
him if he played on a Little League team and
he said he wished he could.
Later in the day, Giovannis mom
explained to Bauer that families at the shelter couldn't afford to put their children on
recreational sports teams because they needed to save money for rent and living expenses when they left the shelter.
That kind of just resonated with me and
it really bothered me that he didn't have the
same opportunity to play sports that I had
and so many other children have, so I really
wanted to help kids like Giovanni to have
this opportunity which is why I started the

Teams For Kids Foundation, Bauer said.


Bauer and the foundation distributed
their first grant of $2,500 to Homeless
Solutions in March. Teams For Kids then
gives the money to Homeless Solutions and
they allocate it to the needs of the families
living in the shelter.
We have had some success stories so
far, Bauer said. I know for a fact that currently there are four kids signed up to play

sports who have utilized the funds for equipment and for team registration and things
like that, so the funds are constantly being
used.
Included in the updates that Bauer
received from Homeless Solutions were stories of a boy who was able to join a track
team and placed fifth at a meet, a boy who is
not only signed up for football in the fall but

who already has his equipment ready and, according to
Bauer, is clearly excited. And a girl in middle school who
was able to join her schools track team because she was
able to purchase the required running shoes.
While the foundation is still in its early stages, there are a
lot of fundraisers happening right now, as well as planned
initiatives to happen in the near future.
Currently, there are two initiatives that the foundation is
running. The first one, Teaming up for Kids, uses donated
money to created Team Up Kits. Inside of the kits is
fundraising material and through a partnership with the
Morristown Recreational Department, they are being distributed to children on these teams who can raise money and
spread awareness.
The other initiative is called the Teams For Kids 2015
Corporate Challenge. Bauer and the foundations are asking
New Jersey businesses and corporations to get involved with
the Teams For Kids Foundation. The process is simple: an
employee registers the business online and picks a date
before Labor Day where all employees dress down or wear
their favorite sports jersey and donate five dollars to Teams
For Kids. The money can be sent via mail to Teams For Kids
Foundation, Inc. at PO Box 33, Schooleys Mountain, NJ,
07870-0033, or submitted online. Participants can also take
a group photo of their "corporate team" and send it to Teams
For Kids Foundation so that they can share it on their

Did You Know?


Facebook page, website, and blog.
Two future fundraising events include an in-store event in
September at Alex and Ani in Princeton where from 6 p.m.
to 8 p.m., 15 percent of all proceeds are being donated to the
foundation; and an event in October where the foundation is
partnering with Morris United Soccer. There will be a Teams
For Kids day with various activities for kids and many different ways to raise money for children in the community.
According to Bauer, its going to be hard to find a balance
between her senior year of high school and being the backbone of this foundation but shes willing to give it her all.
Its easy in the summer because I have a lot of free time
so its kind of my priority, but I know that during the school
year Im going to have to find a way to balance it, Bauer
said. Even if its just kind of allocating an hour a night to
take care of emails or donations or things that need to get
done for the foundation. But Im probably going to prioritize
school.
For Bauer, this foundation has turned out to be more than
she thought it would.
Its definitely much bigger than I imagined, Bauer said.
Its a huge part of my life and Im just really proud of
everything weve accomplished.

amage to a lawn may be indicative of various problems. Everything from insects to rodents to the family pet may be responsible for causing burnt patches, holes and other eyesores. Getting to the bottom of the
problem is the first step in remediation. Burning and discoloration of the lawn is often a result of high concentrations of
dog urine pooling in one area. Diluting the urine by hosing
down areas of the lawn can clear up many problems. Birds,
raccoons, skunks, moles, and other rodents may feed on
grubs that reside just under the thatch of the lawn, and animals may tear up lawns in search of this delicacy. Treating
the grub problem usually alleviates damage caused by animals. Mole crickets are another common lawn destroyer.
These insects resemble crickets, but they burrow beneath the
turf to feed on plant roots. The mole crickets can push up
channels of turf as they burrow, exposing roots to the elements and causing the grass to die. Getting rid of the insects
can revitalize the lawn.

Keep Your Skin Healthy With Acupuncture And Oriental Medicine

cupuncture and Chinese Medicine have been used


for thousands of years at treating skin conditions
very effectively. Treatments can provide quick
relief for many acute symptoms in addition to significant
and lasting relief from recurrent or chronic skin conditions.
The skin is the largest organ of the body; hence it will
reflect and react to imbalances within the bodys internal
landscape and the effects of environmental toxins, diet, and
your constitution, all of which contribute to the health of
your skin. Environmental influences, such as wind, dryness, dampness, and heat can also trigger or exacerbate
skin disorders.
Healthy skin must always start from the inside out. To
keep your skin healthy and beautiful you must work on the
inside of your body through diet to flood the body with
anti-oxidants to fight the free radicals which cause our skin
to age. Increasing the flow of energy, blood and lymph circulation improves the skins natural healthy color.
Promotion of collagen productions increases muscle tone
and elasticity helping to firm the skin. Stimulating the for-

ccording to recent studies, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, or ADHD, appears to be more prevalent than ever before. Nearly 1 in 10 kids between
the ages of five and 17 is being diagnosed with ADHD.
Despite that prevalence, misinformation regarding the disorder continues to circulate, and that information can make it
harder for parents to understand the disorder.
Dispelling the misinformation surrounding ADHD may
help those who are truly affected by the disorder get the
treatment they need.
Myth# 1: ADHD is not a real disorder. Many people honestly feel that ADHD was a concept drummed up by psychiatrists and pharmaceutical companies to increase business.
However, the condition is real and is recognized by major

mation of body fluids helps to nourish the skin, adding


moisture and making it softer, smoother and more lustrous.
General skin conditions that can be treated with
Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine include acne, dermatitis, eczema, pruritus, psoriasis, rosacea, shingles and
urticaria (hives). Chinese Medicine does not recognize
skin problems as one particular syndrome. Instead, it aims
to treat the specific symptoms that are unique to each individual using a variety of techniques with Acupuncture,
such as herbal medicine, lifestyle/dietary recommendations to restore imbalances found in the body. Hence, if 10
patients are treated with Chinese Medicine for eczema,
each patient will receive a unique, customized treatment
with different lifestyle and dietary recommendations.
Another example is treating Hives or urticaria utilizing
Chinese Medicine. Evidence that Acupuncture and Herbal
Medicine have been used for skin disorders, such as hives,
can be found in early medical literature dating back to
3AD. Medicinal plants and stone needles were utilized to
relieve and cure discomforts of the external areas of the

health institutions, including the Surgeon General of the


United States and the National Institutes of Health.
Myth #2: ADHD is only a children's disorder. Statistics
indicate that while the majority of the people diagnosed with
ADHD are children, at least 4 percent of adults experience it
at as well. The reason the statistics may be lower for adults
is that ADHD is often misdiagnosed or goes undiagnosed in
adults.
Myth #3: ADHD is caused by bad parenting. There are a
number of people quick to point fingers at parents, laying the
blame for ADHD at the feet of mom and dad. But some people with ADHD have difficulty controlling impulsivity and
behavior, and that difficulty may have nothing to do with
how those people were raised.

body. Arent you glad we advanced to sterile and painless

In Chinese Medicine, an outbreak of hives is described
as wind invading the skin and the meridians, causing itching and swelling. When the eruptions are red, it is an indication that wind and heat are involved. When the eruptions
are a pale pink or white, it is likely that the diagnosis will
be wind-cold invading the skin. How the condition is diagnosed will determine what acupuncture points are used,
what herbal formulas are prescribed and what
lifestyle/dietary recommendation are made.
If you suffer from any of the above mentioned skin disorders call Skylands Acupuncture to start your healing
process! Remember, Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine
will be directed at addressing both the root cause and the
branch (symptoms) of the condition by providing relief
from the itching and swelling (branch) and addressing the
underlying imbalances and triggers that are causing the
condition (the root) of your skin disorder.
Myth #4: More boys have ADHD than girls. According
to a 2001 report from the U.S. Surgeon General, girls are
less likely to be diagnosed with ADHD despite need. Girls
tend to have lower rates of hyperactivity and external symptoms than boys, but they may have greater intellectual
impairment due to ADHD. As a result, girls may be under
diagnosed with the condition.
Myth #5: Those with ADHD are lazy. People with
ADHD are no more lazy or less determined than those who
have not been diagnosed with the disorder. ADHD is a neurobehavioral disorder that changes the way the brain
responds and presents unique challenges. A person with
ADHD is no more at fault for the behaviors associated with
ADHD than a person with depression or mania is for the
symptoms associated with those conditions.
Myth #6: All people with ADHD are hyper and lack
focus. A person with ADHD may present mixed symptoms
of the condition or be predominantly characterized by one.
That means hyperactivity may not be part of the equation,
especially for those who are largely inattentive. On the flip
side, while some people with ADHD have trouble focusing
on certain tasks, some actually get overly focused on things
they enjoy. This is known as "hyperfocus," and it may come
at a detriment to the things they do not like.
Myth #7: ADHD is over diagnosed. Experts say that
ADHD is still largely under diagnosed and undertreated, and
many are not getting the therapy and/or medication they
need. Contrary to popular belief, taking medication for
ADHD is not a precursor to drug addiction or substance
abuse. Many ADHD sufferers who do not get the care they
need self-medicate and are at a greater risk for substance
abuse.

Time Travel To The 50s With Lead East

By Elsie Walker
erry Cook, of Appleton Productions in Long
Valley, loves the 1950s, enough that he has found
a way to share it with others for one magic time
each year.
Cook is the host of Lead East, known as the Worlds
Biggest 50s party. The event boasts 1,800 classic cars,
plus the movies, the dancing and music of the 1950s.
This year the event will be held from Sept. 2 6 at the
Parsippany Hilton. Admission fees and event schedule
information can be founded at www.leadeast.net.
In starting Lead East 33 years ago, Cook revolutionized car shows east of the Mississippi by making his
into a festival. He explained that he has always loved
custom cars. Up until Lead East, car shows were events
where people just stood around and looked at cars. That
was it. Cook wanted to have something different. The
first Lead East was held at the Flemington Fairgrounds.
Cook utilized a sound system to add music to the event.
Taking advantage of nearby venues, participants could
go to a drive-in where car shops on skates came to take
your order and Cook rented out a drive-in theater and
showed the1950s classic, Rebel Without A Cause.
What about the title, Lead East (pronounced as
lead meaning the metal)? Cook explained that refers
to what was used to fill in the seams in custom cars
before fillers like Bondo.

Later, as the event grew and changed locations, it


added another revolutionary element: the cars on display are parked on concrete, not dirt. Traditionally, car
shows had the cars parked in fields or dirt lots. Cooks
venue appeals to those who take care with their classic
cars.
Another thing that makes Lead East different than
other car events is that the fun never stops.
Most car events end around 5 p.m., but [thats when]
were just getting started, said Cook.
Since the early days, times have changed and the
event has evolved, but one thing stays the same. It is a
family- friendly event that shares the fun of a more
innocent age.
Every year of Lead East theres been drive-in
movies, said Cook. At the Hilton, a drive-in theater
area is rigged in the parking where this year people can
see the classic Return of the Creature (from the Black
Lagoon), Alfred Hitchcocks Dial M for Murder and
Bwana Devil. All are in 3D and Cook notes that during Bwana Devil it seems like spears are being thrown
at the audience.
Cook shared that a joyful moment for him at a past
Lead East was when a father shared that it was not only
the first time his young son had seen a drive-in movie,
but one in 3D.
Of course, Lead East would not exist without cars.

names such as Tiki Island, Rhode Island


Island, etc.
The sounds of the 50s will fill the air
with 21 bands, DJs and Doo Wop
groups appearing during the event. This
year those sounds will include Rave
On, a group from Union that does the
music of Buddy Holly, Roy Orbison and
others. There will also be the a-cappella
group, The Whiptones, made up of college students from Whippany. New this
year, for an extra fee, spectators can
attend a Friday Night Dance party with a
five piece band, The Greyhounds from
Poughkeepsie, teamed with the well
known DJ, the Golden Gup.
The
Whiptones will also perform then as
well.
For those who need to brush up on
their footwork, there will be 50s dance
lessons offered during the event.
Featured will be shag. A dance known
in the South, Cook explained that they
call it beach music in South Carolina.
It is like the Lindy or Jitterbox, but with

a few extra steps and it is smoother,


suave.
Although it is focused on the 50s,
Lead East doesnt forget the present and
its needs. There will be a 50/50 to benefit Make-A-Wish. Last years winner
went home with almost $20,000. There
will be a collection for Toys for Tots.
The Military Transport Association will
be set up among the outside vendors in
front of the Hilton. All toy donations collected will be delivered to the U.S.
Marine Reserve Unit at Picatinny Arsenal
to be distributed during the holiday season to needy children in the North Jersey
area. Finally, as is tradition, Cook will
pass the hat when he welcomes people
to the different Lead East concerts. What
is collected goes to the Salvation Army.
Cook said that when people have
asked him about what he does, he reflects
and says One weekend a year I make
about 10,000 old people really happy.
Actually, Lead East is an event that
makes all ages smile.
