Teens learn how to talk to veterans in a project that will document history,
to be archived locally as well as at the Library of Congress.

he Millville Army Air Field Museum, in partnership with the Millville Public Schools, has
received a grant from the NJ Council for the
Humanities to further extend and enhance
portions of its Veteran History Project.
The Veterans History Project, which began in 2001,
has allowed Millville High School students to interview
and videotape World War II and other veterans, documenting their individual military experiences. These
interviews are then archived for future generations at the
national Library of Congress in Washington, DC. The oral
history videos are also provided on DVD to each veteran
interviewed and copies are kept on file at the museums
Henry E. Wyble Historic Research Library and Education
Center at Millville Airport. The veteran interview videos
are used in high school history classes as a teaching tool.
The NJCH grant will enhance the program for 2016
three-fold. With assistance from the NJCH, high school
students will learn more about the importance of oral histories through a summer camp program that will meet
twice a week for five weeks at the Millville Army Air
Field Museum.
Secondly, as part of the grant award, Chanelle Rose,
PhD, a history professor from Rowan University, is working with MHS students at several workshop sessions to
help them formulate higher order questions to ask during
the interview process and better understand how oral
histories support the field of history.
The first student workshop took place on March 26
with Dr. Rose instructing. She taught them about the
importance of oral histories and provided effective questioning techniques. Following the meeting, students interviewed Carl May, a 93-year-old WWII veteran B-26 pilot

Dr. Rose returned for the next student
workshop on July 7. Students will use the
knowledge theyve gained as they create
up to 12 new veteran video interviews
during the next year.
In addition, with assistance from the
NJCH grant, an event will take place this
fall featuring a panel discussion on the
project and the importance of oral histories. Some video clips from these firsthand accounts also will be shown.
Students, along with Dr. Rose, museum
executive board and staff members, and
Millville public school educators, will
present the program. The event will be
open to the public.
As an added outreach to the public, the
Veteran Interview Project oral histories
will be featured at the museums 15th
Annual Veterans Appreciation Day on
Saturday, November 5, 2016.
We are honored to have received this
grant from the NJCH to continue our mission of creating outstanding oral histories
that commemorate our American veteran
heroes and truly document the human
experience, said Robert Trivellini, project
coordinator and director of the Veterans
Interview Program for the MAAFM and
Millville School System. This program is a
valuable learning experience for our student moderators and videographers, a
tremendous opportunity for our veterans
to be honored and have their experiences
told, and a great asset for the public to
have for ongoing future reference.
With the help of Dr. Chanelle Rose,
we are able to reinforce the importance of
oral histories used on a higher level, said
Trivellini. We are extremely proud of
these valuable oral histories and excited to
share them with the visiting public. I

her G.E.D., Garcia was taking mostly


remedial courses. A single mother of two
boys and the victim of domestic violence,
she felt pressured to leave college and get
a job.
I wasnt ready to go to college, she
said. The time in my life wasnt right.
So, Garcia went to work to support her
family. Now, the mother of three, she got a
job at a factory for several yearsuntil she
got fired.
That was the best thing that could
have happened to me, said Garcia. I
needed that motivation. In 2014 with
three college credits, she went back to
Cumberland determined to see things
through. This time, she was on fire.
I flew through my remedial courses,
joined student senate, became a member
of the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society,
was a student speaker and was appointed
to the search committee for the colleges
new president. These were the most productive two years of my life.
And with her three children looking
on, Garcia graduated in May. She is now
headed to Wilmington Universitys psychology program, offered at Cumberlands
on-campus University Center. Each year,
one new graduate is appointed to the colleges Board of Trustees as an Alumni
Trustee. This years appointee is Jeannie
Garcia.
Im so honored to be doing this, she
said. Its just the latest of the many
opportunities Cumberland has given me.
Cumberland is my home. Im older [28]
and have kids, but I got so much support
here. This place built my character.
One of the most remarkable attributes
of Cumberland County College is that we
never give up on our students, said
College President Dr. Yves SalomonFernandez. We are proud of Jeannies
accomplishments and hope that others
will read her story and be inspired to
come back.
Garcia, who wants to go to law school
after she earns her bachelors degree, has
this piece of advice to others who left college because of lifes obstacles: No matter
how long it takes, its never too late to pick
up where you left off. I

2016 VHS Grad Inducted into Naval Academy


Sean Michael Freeman, a 2016 graduate of Vineland
High School, was inducted into the Naval Academy Class
of 2020 on June 30, and will begin six challenging weeks
of basic midshipman training as part of Plebe Summer.
Approximately 1,200 candidates are selected each year
for the Academys plebe or freshman class, and each
student is required to participate in Plebe Summer. During
this time, plebes have no access to television, movies, the
internet or music, and restricted access to cell phones.
They are only permitted to make three calls during the
six weeks of Plebe Summer. The pressure and rigor of
Plebe Summer is carefully designed to help plebes prepare for their first academic year at the Naval Academy
and the four years of challenge, which awaits them.
As the summer progresses, the new midshipmen rapidly
assimilate basic skills in seamanship, navigation, damage
control, sailing, and handling yard patrol craft. Plebes also
learn infantry drill and how to shoot 9mm pistols and M-16
rifles. Other daily training sessions involve moral, mental,
physical or professional development and team-building skills. Activities include
swimming, martial arts, basic rock climbing, obstacle, endurance and confidence
courses designed to develop physical, mental and team-building skills. Forty
hours are devoted to the instruction of infantry drill and five formal parades.
The Brigade of Midshipmen is comprised of approximately 4,400 students
from every state in the union and a handful of international students. The academys alumni include one president, 21 members of Congress, five governors, 73
Medal of Honor recipients, two Nobel Prize winners, 52 astronauts and over
4,000 admirals and generals.
During Plebe Summer, Sean can receive mail at the following address:

She is proud of what she calls her dream


job and her only disappointment is that
she cant work more. In addition to her
greeter duties, management at the
Vineland Walmart store has since carved
out a special role for Tina who provides
samples to guests in the grocery section,
including various foods and drinks, from
produce to Tinas favoritepastries from
the bakery.
Tina, who lives in a group home in
Millville, continues to be exposed to new
things at work, such as how to use a computer to view her work schedule and to
clock in and out. Fiercely independent,
she also is being coached to ask for help
when needed.
Whats most amazing about Tina is
that she has accomplished something that
a majority of us never get to, said Hinton.
While most of us take our careers for
granted, so many folks hold out hope to
find that one dream job that we'd love to
be at each day. Sadly, most will never
obtain that type of satisfaction, but Tina
hasand that is a testament to her character and passion for her community.
Hinton will work with Tina as long as
both are affiliated with the program. In
her position Hilton prepares participants
in Easterseals employment programs
with the social, mental and physical traits
they will need to succeed in the fields to
which they are hired.
Easterseals New Jersey is one of the
states oldest non-profit organizations
with an objective to help enrich the lives
of people living with disabilities. Although
we know it as Easter Seals, the company
rebranded in May as the one-word
Easterseals.
Since 1948, Easterseals New Jersey has
been creating solutions to change the lives
of people with disabilities and special
needs. Its mission is to help individuals and
families live, learn, work and play in their
communities with independence, equality,
and dignity. Over 7,000 people in New
Jersey with developmental disabilities
including autism, physical incapacities,
mental illness and other such difficulties
receive services each year through
Easterseals. The programs are designed to
help those with developmental disabilities
work toward achieving independence and
full community-integration; and for folks
like Tinato find a job of a lifetime. I

erhaps one of the first things you


notice about Tina is her infectious smile as she greets you
with a sincere: Hello, welcome
to Walmart. So with her cheerful
demeanor, it is easy to see how shed be a
natural at being the first friendly face you
see when entering the store. However,
despite her positive attitude and a dedicated determination to work, her path to
this career hasnt been an easy one. You
see, at the age of 58, when many folks are
thinking about retirementthis is Tinas
first job.
While many people enter the workforce long before their teenage years or a
college-prepared career, Tinas journey to
employment has been a lifetime in the
making. The road she traveled was long
and riddled with obstacles, disappointments and challenges. Its also been an
inspiration for those traveling with her
and helping her along the way.
Following high school at age 18, the
Vineland native wanted nothing more
than to find a job and be treated like
everyone else. Unfortunately, her special
needs created barriers that could not be
overcome through her determination and
positive attitude alone. Year after year,
potential employers were reluctant to hire
her because of her difficulties. Although
she desperately wanted to work, she
struggled with keeping up with the production requirements of a job, and became
emotionally distraught when given constructive criticism by her supervisors.
Fortunately, she entered the Easterseals
New Jersey program, which provided her
with vocational training and assistance to
prepare her for the workplace.
When Jackie Hinton, employment specialist for Easterseals New Jersey started
working with Tina in October 2015 she
focused on coaching efforts to improve
her self-esteem and to conquer the
womans biggest challenge, which was how
to handle criticism. The two used roleplaying to explore various workplace scenarios to train Tina how to react appropriately.
We watched videos ... from which she
can draw strength, explained Hinton.
Additionally, through the perseverance
of a dedicated team at the Millville
Employment Center, Tinas wish came
true in March when she joined Walmart.

I News in Brief
Fourth of July Foursome

On June 26, Citizens United (CU) ventured out on their first big day of banding
osprey on the Maurice River. When they
arrived at the platform affectionately
named Woodstock, they witnessed something unusual.
At first I thought I was seeing double,
Jane Morton Galetto reported. But in fact
the Woodstock nest had quadruplets!
On the Fourth of July, they returned and
banded the hearty four chicks; the runt or
youngest remains the feistiest of the siblings. This is a great strategy for survival as
it is not unheard of for larger siblings to kill
the weakest chick, especially if food is
scarce. It takes about six pounds of fish a
day to raise a family of three, so one might
theorize eight pounds for four.
Thus far this season, they have had one
tragedy where a chick was entangled in
monofilament; the hook and sinker were
still attached to the line. Sadly, the chick
did not survive the web of disaster. These
kinds of deaths are a reminder that fisherman should do all they can to retrieve lost
line when enjoying their pastime.
CU is grateful to the NJ Department of
Environmental Protection, Division of Fish
and Wildlife, Endangered and Nongame
Species Program, and Conserve Wildlife for
the many years of oversight that they have
devoted to our efforts to jointly restore
osprey numbers to their historic levels.
(They don't normally name osprey but
who could resist four chicks on the Fourth
of July?)

The Center for Diagnostic Imaging


(CDI) is participating in a new, nationwide
study for diagnosing Alzheimers disease,
which could have major impact for
Medicare beneficiaries in the future.
The IDEAS study, which stands for
Imaging Dementia Evidence for Amyloid
Scanning, began approving dementia specialists in February 2016 and is currently
enrolling eligible patients. More than

18,000 Medicare beneficiaries age 65 or


older from about 200 locations across the
U.S. will be chosen to participate in the
next two years by approved neurologists.
The study will use brain positron emission tomography (PET) to scan the brains
of patients with mild cognitive impairment
or dementia of uncertain cause. Dr. Vipin
Gupta in Vineland has been approved as a
participating neurologist in the study, and
will refer eligible patients to the CDI in
Vineland for scans.
Neuroscience researchers are working
hard to find new treatments and hopefully
a cure for Alzheimers disease, said Dr.
Ajay Munjal, board-certified radiologist at
CDI. Were eager to help the IDEAS study
conduct this vital research and help
patients with early detection.
In 2013, the U.S. Centers for Medicare
and Medicaid Services decided not to provide coverage for PET scans in patients
with dementia, due to the lack of evidence
that these scans could diagnose, treat or
improve brain function. The IDEAS study
could establish that PET scans are useful in
detecting amyloid plaques, which are a
core feature of Alzheimers disease. The
IDEAS study is Medicare-approved, and
the cost of PET scans will be covered for
study participants.
A PET scan involves injecting a small
amount of a radioactive isotope, called a
tracer, that is absorbed into the body and
helps the activity of organs and tissues
show up in scans. The radiation only lasts
for a short time, and is about the same radiation exposure as a CT scan. Radiologists
then examine the brain images for evidence
of amyloid plaques, or abnormal clusters of
protein fragments, which is the hallmark
sign of Alzheimer's.

The South Jersey section of the New


Jersey chapter of the American Institute
of Architects (AIASJ) is pleased to
announce that the ACE Mentor Program
of New Jersey has awarded a total of
$9,500 to six students from the
Cumberland County team.
The ACE New Jersey after-school program, which introduces high school students to careers in architecture, construction management and engineering, began
operating in 1999 and has since awarded
$428,250 in scholarships across the state.
Currently, there are eight teams meeting in
different regions across New Jersey during
the academic year.
Through the ACE Mentor Program,
students are given the opportunity to
receive hands-on experience in a field they
are truly interested in pursuing professionally, said architect Larry Merighi, AIA, and
head of the Cumberland County ACE
Mentor Team. Whether they decide to
continue a career path in the field, both
students and mentors benefit from the collaboration on these design projects.
To qualify for the scholarships, students
must regularly attend the program and be
pursuing a degree in an approved field,
such as architecture, engineering or construction management. The application
process includes submitting recommendations from program mentors and another
sources, submitting transcripts and completing a series of short essay questions on
topics including the impact of design and
their reason for pursuing a career in the
indicated field. The students are then
ranked by the ACE New Jersey board,
which determines the level of scholarship
they will receive. The scholarships money
is raised through a scholar breakfast and
golfing outing.
The following Cumberland County students received scholarships in 2016:
Stephanie Lopez of Vineland High
School received $2,000 and will be studying architecture at the New Jersey Institute
of Technology (NJIT)
William Zaleskiewicz of Saint
Augustine Prep received $2,000 and will be
studying architecture at Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute (RPI)
Akexander Bruman of Millville High
School received $1,500 and will be studying
mechanical engineering at Rutgers
University
Madeline MacDonald of Our Lady of
Mercy Academy received $1,500 and will
be studying architecture at Rensselaer
Polytechnic Institute (RPI)
Delaney Sheppard of Millville High
School received $1,500 and will be studying
mechanical engineering at Cumberland
County College
James Johnson-Cowles of Bridgeton
High School received $1,000 and will be
studying electrical engineering at Rowan
University
Through the program, students are

exposed to lectures and mentor presentations, and are given the opportunity to create design and construction concepts similar to those developed in real world situations. The program also includes training
on how to present design and construction
projects as well as visits to construction
sites and apprenticeship facilities.
One of AIAs goals as an organization is
to educate the public about the importance
of architecture and the power it has in transforming the world around them, comments
Bruce Turner, president of AIASJ. We are
proud of our AIASJ membership taking the
lead to educate the professionals of tomorrow and helping them prepare for the next
step in their education career. Participating
in ACE is just one of the great things our
organization is able to do for its community.
The ACE Mentor Program not only
teaches students about the construction,
architecture and engineering professions
but gives them invaluable hands-on experience they would not be able to get elsewhere, said Cristina Martinez, president
of ACE NJ. We appreciate all efforts from
our current mentors and students.
Increased support and involvement across
the board will help the program continue
to grow across New Jersey.

This summer, youth in Millville will


have access to free, fun activities each
week, thanks to an initiative sponsored by
the Holly City Development Corporation
and the City of Millville and coordinated by
the Cumberland County Positive Youth
Development Coalition (CCPYDC), a juvenile delinquency prevention effort funded
by the NJ Attorney Generals Office and
Cumberland County Freeholders.
Play Streets involves closing a city street
so that local youth are able to congregate
for games and activities. While this idea
originated in New York City in 1914, it is
the first of its kind in the area.
The Play Streets initiative is not only a
strategy to promote physical activity and
provide high quality space for children to
interact socially, but also a great way for
residents and community organizations to
get involved in their neighborhood, says
Heather Santoro, business administrator
for the Millville Housing Authority and cochair of the CCPYDC Millville Breakout
Group.
Play Streets sessions will take place
every Wednesday from July 13 to August
17 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Pine Street
between 2nd and 3rd streets. Free food and
bottled water will be provided at each session; activities will include sports, art, face
painting, sidewalk chalk, and a dunk tank.
Themes and CCPYDC partner agencies
facilitating each session are as follows: July
13 Fitness and Health (Millville Police
Department); July 20 Art and Culture
(Millville Public Library); July 27 Carnival
(Holly City Family Success Center); August
3 Fun in the Sun (Glasstown Church);
August 10 Public Safety (Millville Police
Department); August 17 Back to School
(Millville Senior High School and First
United Methodist Church).
Play Streets hopes to engage youth
from 6 to 14 years of age, but all youth are
welcome.

My name is Dr. Michael Sarnoff.


My wife, Dr. Katie Sarnoff and I are
local chiropractors at The Good Life
Family Chiropractic Centre in
Vineland. A month ago we donated/delivered flags to all 19 schools
in our district.
This came about as I was leaving
my sons school in the winter and
noticed a tattered flag. Speaking to
the superintendent of schools, I
asked if we could donate a flag to
the school and then inquired if we
could just donate to all of them.
With the recent events our country has had, along with our nation
celebrating its birthday on July 4,
we thought it be appropriate to
honor/recognize our first responders. We appropriately grieve for
the victims of tragedies like Orlando
and any other senseless act. It's
hard to process that type of evil.
Sometimes in that process we may
forget the people to first arrive to
help without hesitation. These men
and women serve in that manner all
over the country, all the time.
We contacted chief of the fire
department, Robert Paganini and
asked if we could donate flags to all
six fire stations in the city. We then
contacted Vineland Police
Department, asking the same. They
gladly accepted and we set up a
meeting.
My father, Morris Sarnoff (89), a
World War II Navy Veteran who
served in the South Pacific, accompanied me in handing the flags to
the Fire Chief at headquarters and
then to Sergeant Fay of the
Vineland Police Department. The
event is pictured here. There was a
lot of appreciation on both sides.
Our intention was accomplished,
recognizing the people who protect
us on a daily basis.
If you have any further questions
contact me at your convenience.

Lewis Named 2016 NJ


State Youth of the Year
The Boys & Girls Club of Vineland is
pleased to announce that Alexia Lewis
is the 2016 New Jersey State Youth of
the Year winner. She is the second state
winner in two years from the Vineland
Club. Last year Jennifer Negron from
Vineland took the state award.
Three years ago Alexia Lewis was a
Oakcrest High School sophomore, who
was shy and did not speak much. A
family member suggested she join the
Boys and Girls Club when her family
was going through some hard times.
Lewis, 17, lives in the Mizpah section
of Hamilton Township. In a recent awards
dinner for Youth of the Year at Stockton
University, she showed the impact the
Boys & Girls Club had on her when she
was named the state winner by the Boys
and Girls Clubs in New Jersey.
We are so excited, said Chris
Volker, executive director of the Boys
and Girls Club of Vineland, where Lewis
is president of the Keystone Club and
founder of the You Can Too club. Her
community service activities include a
21 Down Buddy walk to bring awareness
to children with Down Syndrome and
Bags for Beauties, which involves collecting handbags and hygiene items for
homeless women.
She recently started the "You Can Too"
club to motivate middle school students:
We talk about goal-setting, and how to
reach them, she said. At first, some
just wanted to get out of high school.
Now they are talking about college.
Lewis, who plans to be a lawyer, will
attend Hampton University in Virginia in
the fall majoring in political science. As
the state winner she will receive a
$10,000 scholarship from the Boys and
Girls Clubs in New Jersey and $5,000
from the Boys and Girls Clubs of
America. She goes on to the Northeast
Regional competition in August.

I had an absolutely amazing time


competing at the 52nd National
Leadership and Skills Conference! I met
so many great people, made some great
friends, and honestly have never felt so
crazy in my life. This was something I
really wanted badly. For three years I
dreamed of the awards ceremony. There
were times when I thought I wouldn't get
the opportunity to do it, times when I
felt pressured, and times when I doubted if it was worth it. Having a goal is an
amazing thing within itself. I meant
some truly dedicated people on my trip.
About 6,000 people went out to
Louisville, KY with a dream to win one of
the over 100 competitions. People gave
everything they had and only three
places were given medals.
A lot of competitors left that ceremony disappointed, but every single person
came home a new person.... The main
thing is the experiences, though. People
flew in planes for the first time, came to
the city for the first time....

It was truly amazing seeing people


exchanging pins (every state had their
own pin designed by a student and
brought them to nationals), seeing maps
covered with all the pins including
Navajo nations, Hawaii, Puerto Rico was
awesome, and it made people from all
over interact with each other.
My competition included 37 sculptures that made it to the national level.
Some states competed against more
than 30 sculptures at the state level.
The competition was scored based on
the sculpture, the notebook, an interview, and a written test. I was extremely
impressed by some of the sculptures,
the welding sculpture competition
seemed to be one of the most popular
competitions at the convention, even
being mentioned by Kayleen McCabe
facebook.com/kayleen.mccabe/ who
was a guest speaker at the opening ceremony.... I have huge amounts of
respect for the other sculptors in my
competition. They dedicated so much
time into making their sculptures, I put
in 435 hours, and so did a lot of the
other competitors.
I'm so proud to say I got the gold

medal, it meant the world to me for so


many reasons. I found a true passion in
the welding world. The welding sculpture competition sent two kids from
Cumberland County Technical Education
Center (CCTEC) / Cumberland Regional
High School who live in NEWPORT, NEW
JERSEY to nationals. My brother Billy
Loew and I both won gold medals! My
dad Bill Loew also competed in
SkillsUSA when he was in high school,
getting a gold medal at states and then
8th at nationals.
My first memory from CCTEC
involved Mr. Lopez calling me out in
front of everybody as Billy Loew's brother. He said if I had any of my brothers
skill at all I would be a champion. I was
honestly embarrassed and it made me
nervous, but that helped motivate me so
much. For my two years at CCTEC I
wore a name tag that said Billy Loews
brother. It fell off my bag about a month
ago, but I still have it.
When people saw my project they
would ask where I'm from, I would say
New Jersey, and they were usually
shocked. A lot of people told me my
sculpture reminded them of their home,
One person was very confused how a
crab fit in with a muskrat and a bird. I
had to explain that I work at Beaver
Dam Boat Rentals, and that is what I
see all day, all the time.
I owe so many people a huge thank
you! I owe thanks to my friends and
family because I don't have teachers
anymore they are friends, and they have
supported me so much. Just having so
many people believe in me through all
I've done has been amazing, and it really helps me so much! Thank you to all of
the people at CCTEC for the support! A
special thanks to Mr. Olsen for coming
out to Louisville with me, and to Mr.
Bonner for being a great teacher and
supporter! My family gets a huge thank
you because I love them and they are
always supporting me and motivating
me and believing in me! I got home to a
little party with signs and cake, I have
amazing people all around me! Thank
you to all of the people that helped
make my trip amazing. I felt like I was
adopted by GCIT when I got out there.
They took me in, allowing me to go
bowling, and to a concert!
And sorry I only liked some of your
comments [on Facebook], I hope everyone sees this and knows how much all
of your comments mean to me!
Along with my gold medal, I brought
home some literally unbelievable prizes,
including scholarships to technical colleges. At states this year, I won a bunch
of stuff from Lincoln Electric. Thank you
to the sponsors! Congrats to everyone
that made it to nationals and all of the
medalists!

I Jersey Reflections

{ BY VINCE FARINACCIO }

Feast Day (Week)


Hammontons Feast Day, July 16, is on a Saturday in
this, its 141st year, but the celebration is weeklong.

I was very lucky to have met Muhammad


Ali three times.
I met him first at the University of
Maryland after he refused to go in the Army.
I was a reporter for the Diamondback
Maryland newspaper.
Ali gave an interesting speech telling the
students to stick to their convictions. He said
that he might go to jail and his career would be
ruined, but he would stick to his convictions.
I asked Ali if he was still staying in shape.
He said that The Greatest always stays in
shape. He threw a couple of jabs to show
how quick he was. I moved back so I
wouldnt get knocked out.
The second time I met Ali was at a training camp for his title bout with Jimmy
Young. This took place at the now-demolished Capital Center in Landover, Maryland.
I was Community Recreation director for
the Prince George County Recreation
Department. I was asked by my superior to
meet with the Ali camp because they will be
here for a month before the fight and make
sure they have directions to drugstores,
places to shop, etc.
With my new assignment, I approached
Angelo Dundee, who was Alis tranier, to see if
they needed anything. Angelo said that his team
was getting in a limo to pick up some goods.
Angelo asked me to come along and I
actually got in a van with Muhammad Ali
and his entourage. I gave directions to the
local drugstore, shopping malls, etc. Finally,
Ali asked me to take him to a school. I said
that there was a school very closeby.
When we reached the school, Ali said he
wanted to meet the children. I told him that
we must get permission by going through the
main office. It was lunchtime and the elementary students were at the playground. Ali
said, I dont need any introduction. I am the
Greatest and will go onto the playground.
When we arrived, Ali ran on the playground and he shadow-boxed with some of

the children. When the students found out


that it was Ali, the surrounded him. They
couldnt believe it.
Ali loved to have fun and enjoyed spending time with the children. Behind the
scenes, he was a regular guy.
The third time I met Ali was at a banquet
in Wahsington, DC, honoring all the living
heavyweight champions.
Ali was there trying to take off Howard
Cosells toupee. He also came up to Joe Louis
and said to him, Heres how you fight. Ali
walked around like a robot.
The banquet was a great success. I asked Ali
what he was going to do when he retires. He
said that he wanted to be an Ambassador of
peace and travel around the world. He also said
that if he wanted to, he could be President.
After the three times that I met him, I
realized his death was a great loss. Im sure if
he was here today, that he would utilize his
charisma to travel around the world to promote peace. In todays world, we need a
leader like Ali.
Ali, to me, was an excellent athlete, a
charismatic speaker, and a man of convictionand finally, an ambassador for peace.
What a loss. May he rest in peace.
Steve Plevins, Vineland

Craft Vendors Wanted for Jersey Fresh Festival


The Vineland Jersey Fresh Festival Committee is looking for artisan vendors
interested in being part of this years event. All varieties of vendors are invited to
participate including antique, craft, collectible, and hobby vendors. The Jersey
Fresh Festival, which celebrates the significant role that agriculture plays in New
Jersey, is scheduled for Sunday, August 14 from noon to 6 p.m. on the grounds
of Vineland High School located at 2880 E. Chestnut Ave.
In addition to a new location which offers more on-site parking, the Festival
Committee has added a classic car show, an antique farm equipment display, a
larger area for crafters and exhibitors, pony rides, bouncy houses, fun special
guests, and live entertainment. The Jersey Fresh Festival Produce Stand will be
selling loose produce and beautiful baskets throughout the day.
Vendor application fees are $30. Booth spaces measure 10' x 10'. Vendors will
be required to bring their own tables, chairs, and tents. Registration and payment must be received by Friday, August 10. Admission to the Jersey Fresh
Festival and parking are free. For more information about participating in the
Jersey Fresh Festival as a vendor, exhibitor, or volunteer, contact Donata at 609364-7108, or visit VinelandCity.org to download an artisan vendor application.

forty and fifty thousand. An advertisement for the 50th anniversary of the festival in 1925 offers a three-day schedule in
English and Italian. Even during the years
of World War II, the feast day was still celebrated although the carnival and fireworks were suspended.
The Mount Carmel Society also purchased land on Tilton Street for the construction of a hall. The homes of certain
members were used as collateral for the
acquisition and, in 1956, the hall was officially dedicated. Renovations over the
ensuing decades included an expansion of
the kitchen facilities to accommodate the
highly successful food stands run by the
society.
The origin of the food stand can be
traced back to the 1970s. The 125th
Anniversary Commemorative Book credits
the idea to John Vivona, the owner of
Amusements of America, the carnival
operation that continues to supply the
rides and games that occupy the attention
of many who attend the celebration. The
book reports that Vivona suggested to
Mount Carmel members that operating a
food stand during the feast week might
help to offset the steadily increasing
expense of presenting the feast. Although
some members were a little hesitant, the
majority were enthusiastic and it was
decided to give it a try. From its initial origin of selling beer from a half keg, the food
stand has since grown into a much more
diversified and efficient operation.
While the society has made changes
over the years, it has never overlooked tradition. An expanded version of the procession that accompanied the first observance
in 1875 continues to this day. Religious
services have been maintained. And sons
of long-standing participants continue to
renew the societys membership.
In November 1989, according to the
125th Anniversary Commemorative Book,
the sons and junior members of the Mount
Carmel Society held a tribute dinner to
honor their fathers and senior members. A
plaque was presented to the honorees in
which both they and the traditions of the
past were recognized. In part, it read, We
honor you today for keeping alive the values and traditions of this society that our
forefathers and founders and past members beganwe assure you that we have
learned our lessons well. I

rom its humble origins at the


home of Antonio Capelli at 232
Pine Road in Hammonton to
todays celebration that has thousands of people strolling through the fairgrounds, the Our Lady of Mount Carmel
Festival has had a fascinating journey over
the past 140 years.
According to the festivals 125th
Anniversary Commemorative Book, issued
in 2000, In the early years, the feast was
little more than a curiosity to the townspeople of Hammonton. The earliest news
records reported only that the Italians had
a celebration or yearly celebration. In
the ninth year of festivities, The
Republican newspaper ran an article about
how men, women, children and babies of
every nationality represented in
Hammonton were there. It addressed the
fact that unavoidable crowding and pushing all seemed good-natured and all
enjoyed themselves. The event included
a sufficient variety of music to satisfy all
tastesmouth-organs, band-organ, bagpipes and full band as well as fireworks,
numerous fruit and peanut stands and
lemonade.
It wasnt long before the festival began
to grow and additional food, beverage and
forms of entertainment were added. In the
mid-1890s, the festivities first became
known as the Feast of Mount Carmel and,
with the start of the 20th century, media
coverage increased, musical groups from
Philadelphia were hired and, in time, a carnival was added to the celebration.
In 1905, the Our Lady of Mount Carmel
Society was chartered. The 125th
Anniversary Commemorative Book
explains that the Our Lady of Mount
Carmel Society is an independent nonprofit Catholic organization formed in 1875 by
Italian immigrants new to Hammonton,
who took time to celebrate their safe journey to America and a successful harvest by
giving praise and thanks to the Blessed
Virgin Mary.
The 20th century not only witnessed an
increase in the number of activities and
edible offerings but a surge in attendance
and an expanded program as well. The
125th Anniversary Commemorative Book
acknowledges the growing amount of
Italian immigrants in South Jersey and
reports that those attending the festivities
swelled from ten and twenty thousand to

Citys Hope Summer


Programs Are Free
Studies show that 98 percent of
the children in Millville qualify for
free lunch, the schools even provide
the children with breakfast. Ask
yourself, what happens after they
leave the safety and comfort of
school? What happens when schools
are out for summer? What are we
doing about this?
The Citys Hope Community
Development Corporation believes
that no child should ever go hungry.
So since Tuesday, June 28, they have
been serving the children of Millville
warm, healthy and complete meals.
All school-age (18 and under) are
invited to have breakfast and lunch
during the summer months. Meals
will be served at our Cornerstone
Community Church campus located
at 911 Church Street, Millville. This
program will runs every Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday until
September 1. Breakfast is served
from 9 to 10 a.m. Lunch is served
from 12 noon to 1 p.m.
In addition, Citys Hope collaboration with the RD Wood Elementary
School in Millville is hosting a summer reading program to help introduce and excite children about reading. This program is held every
Wednesday through August 31 from
10:15 to 11:45 a.m. for grades K-3.
Sessions include crafts and snacks,
the program runs weekly for free all
summer long! Go to cityshope.org for
more information and sign-ups. Also,
volunteer opportunities are available.
