imple chit chat led to a life-changing solution for one
Morris County mom simply working out at a local
gym.
The woman at the gym was talking about her daughters
struggles, when a man there suggested that she seek help
from the Mental Health Association of Morris County
(MHAMC). Since that conversation in Jan. 2014, the
womans daughter has been seeking help with the MHAMC
thanks to this man, who serves as a board member of the
MHAMC. The mother says, Hes an angel.
When planning the 12th Annual Food For Thought, this
conversation took place, says Barb Flynn, Director of
Development of the MHAMC. It was so moving, so pas-
sionate that event planners decided to make that their theme
for this years Food For Thought. With this womans daugh-
ter getting help since this occurrence, the message changed
their lives.
At the MHAMC, There are people who do what they do,
can be a staff member, consumers, volunteers to make us do
better, says Flynn.
In recognition of the service provided by the MHAMC,
and to raise funds for the non-profit agency, the MHAMC
12th Annual Food For Thought Celebration The Angels
Among Us, is set for Monday, June 9, at the Birchwood
Manor in Whippany. The premier food tasting event will be
held from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., with a new VIP Business
Networking Reception from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., to allow busi-
ness professionals an opportunity to network.
Cost for the Tasting Event is $65 (at the door $75); the
VIP Business Networking Reception, which is being spon-
sored by Novartis, is $100 and includes admission to
Premier Tasting Event.
The benefit to raise money for the MHAMC will include
many foods from about 20 various restaurants, wine & beer
for tasting and a craft beer tasting at the VIP Reception.
From donations received from businesses, there will be a
Gift Basket Raffle, 50/50 drawing and a Silent Auction. One
Chris DePatria and (his Mom) Janice DePatria with the 2014
Ambassadors Award - Janice is on the Food for Thought commit-
tee, she used to live in Montvale but recently moved to Brick. This
is sad news because she was going to be on our board.
Angels And Food Event Promote Agency
For Mental Wellness
of the silent auction items will be a banner for a business to
display on their front lawn.
Senator Anthony Bucco will be the keynote speaker.
Bucco will be recognized and honored for the work he did
for people with disabilities and housing in Boonton.
The work we do is not political, says Flynn. It effects
everybody. He is a great person, she says about Bucco. As
mayor of Boonton, He helped disabled people in Boonton
and passed a resolution that deals with issues pertaining to
mental illness.
Also being honoured will be Christopher DePatria, vice
president of the software company Signpost, for his
fundraiser, Manuary. DePatria, who initiated the fundrais-
er after witnessing how mental illness has affected one of his
family members, raised funds for the MHAMC by encour-
aging his employees to grow beards. DePatria is a recipient
of one of the 2014 Ambassador Awards given out by the
Governors Council on Mental Health Stigma for his
Manuary fundraiser.
Brian Caine, owner of Soul Search Records in Mountain
Lakes, will also be honored for the time he has devoted in
giving lessons and access to music to the clients served by
the MHAMC.
We are the beneficiaries of proud support from a com-
munity of caring volunteers who understand that mental
health is the issue of our day, says Louis A. Schwarcz, pres-
ident and CEO of MHAMC. Through our many programs

All funds raised at Food for Thought go
to support the work the MHAMC, a 501(c)
3 non-profit organization providing support
and services along with education and self-
help resources for those with mental illness
in Morris County.
Last year, about 200 people attended the
11th Annual Food For Thought and monies
raised is currently being allocated toward a
new first-aid program to train guidance
counsellors and teachers awareness or the
warning signs of suicide, explains Flynn.
The non-profit program called AIR,
Attitudes in Reverse, was established recent-
ly by a couple inPrinceton who want to teach
others about the warning signs of suicide.
This couples high-school aged son killed
himself a few years ago. When the teenager
told various people they could have posses-
sion of his things, no one told anybody,
says Flynn. They didnt want to get him in
trouble. Even the school didnt know how
to handle it. They were afraid to talk about
it.
With the program AIR, trainers will go
into schools to train students and teachers in
order to educate kids early so they grow up
with the education and the innate learning
that they know what the warning signs are
and say something to an adult, explains
Flynn.
The goal is to go into larger high schools
first, and then eventually provide training at
the middle schools, says Flynn.
Flynn is hoping this years Food For
Thought can attract 250 guests. Monies
raised for this years event is projected to go
toward another program- Mental Health
First Aid-in which specialists will visit busi-
nesses and teach people how to identify indi-
viduals who are struggling with mental ill-
ness; to educate them so they might be able
to reach out for help, says Flynn. It does-
nt make them practitioners or clinicians, but
it does help identify. Its a great program.

W
hen asked how they would describe their moth-
ers, some people might say, shes an angel.
Thats just how Landing artist Donna Kusama
sees mothers in her works on exhibit at the Roxbury Public
Library. That exhibit, titled, Mothers Love, can be seen
throughout May. The library is located at 103 Main Street
in Succasunna.
Kusama, a member of the Art Association in Roxbury
and the Pastel Society of New Jersey, has been creating art
since she was a child. She started by drawing with her
grandparents. As a teen, she began painting with acrylics.
Shes taken art classes at Sussex Community College with
Roz Hollander and workshops with Christina Debarry.
Kusamas art has been exhibited at the Mt. Arlington
Library, the Roxbury Library, the Morris County Library,
the Atrium Gallery, the Livingston Gallery, and the Mayo
Performing Arts Center. She works in a number of medi-
ums, but noted, I love pastels.
When asked how she decided on the theme for her cur-
rent exhibit, Kusama said once she found out that she would
showing her works in May, she knew she wanted it to be a
Mothers Day show. As for the inspiration behind it, her
response was almost poetic:
'[Inspiration from mom] who gave birth to us all, some
way or other,
Who is truly an angel in disguise,
Who helps us all along our journey in our lives,
To show us all what we can do through her love.
All things are possible as we grow like flowers in this
beautiful garden of many
And produce fruits of her labor to appreciate all she has
done for us.
As for the angels seen in her works, Kusama seems
drawn to them, even when she hasnt planned it. She
recalled a piece that was supposed to be a teddy bear but
soon took a different turn.
I couldnt rest until I put wings on it, she shared.
Soon the work changed into the pink angel, with the
angel looking over the water, and there a rock, a cross, and
the Holy Spirit present. That piece is in the current exhib-
it.
Similar spirituality is found in another work in the exhib-
it. It is a side view of an angel dressed in a lilac- colored
velvet gown, with a glowing golden halo, gentle eyes and
loving smile. Although not titled, Kusama thinks of it as the
Mother Angel. It reminds her of the Blessed Mother Mary
and also of St. Therese. The latter was an artist.
When asked, Kusama will tell you that she has no
favorite piece. Like any mother, she likes all her works
equally.

F
ew things beat a cold beverage on a
hot day. When time is of the essence,
there are ways to cool down bottled
or canned beverages quickly. Individual
bottles can be wrapped in a wet paper towel
and stashed in the freezer for a few minutes.
However, if you will be having a party and
want to get beverages ready for the crowd,
create a salty ice bath. Salt does not actual-
ly make water colder, but it will suppress
the freezing point of water. That means
water can become much colder -- and retain
that temperature -- without freezing over to
ice. If no salt were added, the coldest the
water would reach would be 32 F. By
adding salt, water can get as low as -6 F.
This means items submerged in a salty ice
bath will get colder much more quickly. Fill
a cooler half-way with ice. Add the bever-
ages until they are covered by ice. Then add
water until the ice is submerged. Mix in
table salt or rock salt to suppress the freez-
ing point of the water. After 10 minutes or
more, the beveragesshould be icy cold.

A
uthor Michele Kriegman of
Morristown (writing under the pen
name Suzanne Gilbert) will spot-
light the issue of human trafficking when
she discusses her most recent book,
"Tapioca Fire," at the National Council of
Jewish Women (NCJW), West Morris
Section Personal Giving Thank-You
Brunch. The event, which is being coordi-
nated by Dorothy Cohen of Denville and
Anne Gorman of Rockaway, will take place
on Sunday, June 1, at 10 a.m., at a private
home in Mendham.
Kriegman's talk, which dovetails with
NCJW, West Morris Section's anti-traffick-
ing advocacy initiative, is titled Human
Trafficking: What Does It Have to Do with
International Adoption, Orphans and
Writers?"
Says Kriegman, "Thanks to growing
attention by mainstream civic groups like
NCJW and the Jewish Federation, as well
Homeland Security and journalists, the
impact and infrastructure of human traffick-
ing are becoming better understood. The
modern-day abolitionist movement takes
different forms in different parts of the
world, and this discussion will reveal that
amazing landscape of hope."
In speaking about her new book, the
author says, "The protagonist of 'Tapioca
Fire,' Susan Piper, was adopted from
Thailand. This is a country whose multifac-
eted role in human trafficking I witnessed
when I was married to a Thai journalist for
eleven years. I have worked in journalism in
Tokyo, Boston and New York. I am also an
adoptive stepmom and an adult adoptee
who was found by my birth mother; I later
searched successfully for my birth father."
NCJW, West Morris Section is a found-
ing member of the New Jersey Coalition
Against Human Trafficking. NCJW is a
grassroots organization of volunteers and
advocates who turn progressive ideals into
action. Inspired by Jewish values, NCJW
strives for social justice by improving the
quality of life for women, children, and
families and by safeguarding individual
rights and freedoms.

B
ack in the prattle again. (Randumb brainburps not
ready for full-columnal treatment):
Why don't we use more unarmed traffic deputies to ticket
minor violations that don't require a full-fledged police offi-
cer? They could be paid with a portion of the fines, if and
when collected, would reactivate retirees and would render
justice to scofflaws.
In a similar vein, licensed and qualified Physician
Assistants might/could be a solution to the looming problems
of physician shortages, skyrocketing costs and hypochondri-
acs who game the present system.
Gotta wonder why we limit our Presidents to two terms,
but allow Sinators and Reprehensibles to remain in office as
long as they can fog a mirror, follow a party line, raise cam-
paign money and buss the butts of like-minded supporters.
A word to the wide: Regrettably (and unavoidably), it is
impossible for us to lose weight that we didn't first put on.
Inconveniently, this includes every unnecessary calorie that
we stuff into our mouths without promptly spitting it out.
The difference between charity and political patronage is
the same as that between the always-voluntary sharing of
wealth and its sometimes-arbitrary redistribution. Only the
former is inherently virtuous.
Love and hate are not opposite emotions; the flip side of
love is not hate, but indifference. Among the people who can't
understand that are those who have not observed their silver
wedding anniversary or had several siblings.
Undisciplined genitalia are, ipso facto, the facilitating
weapons of mass reproduction.
More power to the peepholes? Without whistle-blowers,
snitches and tattle-tales, all of whom are held up for scorn, our
system of justice would seem to tilt in favor of the guys in
black hats.
Query: What will happen in the land of the free stuff as the
Peters who are needed to pay the Pauls peter out and the Pauls
grow in both number and demands?
Money will buy you a dog with an impeccable pedigree,
but only love will make its tail wag.
A militantly confirmed bachelor once observed that mar-
riage brings music into a man's life, in that he soon learns to
play second fiddle at home.
Arachibutyrophobia is a word which designates a fear of
peanut butter sticking to the roof of one's mouth. Impress your
friends by casually working that into your next cocktail party
chit-chat! (If that fails to cower them, try hippopotomonstros-
esquippedaliophobia (fear of long words).
Ode to an unattractive call girl: "She mightn't be too come-
ly, and she may, in fact, be homely. But she's hell-and-gone
ahead of a cold and empty bed."
Pathway to wealth for the intrepid young: Buy income-
producing real estate with borrowed money (and expert
advice!), then let your tenants pay the debt down with depre-
ciated dollars.
"The truth, the whole truth and noting but the truth," which
is demanded of us-all when we testify in court, are elements
rarely combined in political oratory, courtship and barroom
banter.
Conservatives who don't like guns simply tend not to buy
them; liberals who don't like guns tend to want them to be
declared illegal. What say you?
A great American pastime: Stewing without doing (AKA
awfulizing.)
Reminder to those who blindly follow others: In a sled-dog
race, only the lead dog ever enjoys a change of scenery.
Steps toward plagiarism: 1) At the first usage of someone
else's material, specify: "As (name the source) famously
said......". 2) At second usage, change the attribution to: "As
someone once said......". Upon your third usage and forever
thereafter, make it: "As I've always said....."
Procrastinator's action plan: One for the money, two for the
show, three to get ready, four to get ready, five to get ready, six
to get ready, etc., ad infinitum.
Only in America could a driver's license or other valid ID
be required to cash a check or belly up to the bar, but NOT to
vote.
Few things in life are more satisfying than when we old-
sters see our children coping with teenagers of their own.
Among the things least useful to humanity (or hupersoni-
ty, if you're into political correctness) are your appendix, alge-
bra, the Social Register, cockroaches and the Kardashian sis-
ters.
Exhortation becomes extortion, and an offer becomes a
rip-offer, when "just pay additional shipping and handling"
more than doubles the cost of an Internet-huckstered product
and reduces the "guaranteed refund" to a relative pittance. Do
the math before you take the bath!
Th-th-th-th-that's all, Folks!* (Until the next dump of over-
flow trivia.)

M
t. Olives best kept secret was
unveiled recently at the official
opening of The Morris Canal
Greenway Braille Trail.
Just a week after Earth Day, the ribbon
cutting ceremony was held 2:30 p.m.,
Monday, April 28, at the trails entrance at
Plane Street Bridge in Stanhope. The first
phase of the mile long trail stretches north
of the Plane Street Bridge, from Love Lane
in Mt. Olive along the historic Morris
Canal.
While the trail provides a great walkway
for all individuals to enjoy, the trail incorpo-
rates a guided system for accessibility to
blind individuals and the visually impaired.
We are very happy that we reached the
end of a very long road, says Mt. Olive
Twp. Mayor Rob Greenbaum, one of five
speakers at the ribbon cutting ceremony.
Greenbaum was among 60 other representa-
tives local, county and state-wide; agencies
such as the NJ Foundation for the Blind;
and Givaudan Fragrances Corporation in
Budd Lake, corporate sponsor of the trail.
We are very pleased with the outcome.
The trail is an excellent place to go out if
in a wheel-chair, stroller, mountain bike or
walk in general. Its a great walk; two miles
back and forth.
Greenbaum who walked the trail during
a guided tour led by Joe Macasek- president
of the Morris Canal Society, says its beau-
tiful; its shaded, Its level. You can walk
into Stanhope. Its a country trail in the mid-
dle of Mt. Olive. Its very picturesque, one
of the best kept secrets in Mt. Olive.
Mt. Olive Council Vice President Joe
Nicastro says, I would like to thank
Givaudan for the support and work on this
project. When I saw the trail for the first
time I was very impressed with the project.
It is a beautiful stretch that people will
enjoy. It is great to see the cooperation of
businesses and the township working
together to create a better community for all
residents to enjoy today and in the future.
The Morris Canal Greenway Braille
Trail has been in the works for the past year
and has been a joint project by Mt. Olive
and Stanhope townships and Givaudan
Fragrance Corporation.
The concept of Givaudan participating in
this effort traces back to 2009, according to
Givaudan Vice President of Operations
John Trombley, when corporate leaders
identified a platform for employees to vol-
unteer. The fragrant side of the company
was encouraged to connect to the senses;
(L to R) Mark Texel, Director Dept of Parks & Forestry, John Trombley, Vice President
Operations, Givaudan Fragrances, Mayor Rob Greenbaum, Mount Olive Township
Givaudans Corporate Vision Leads To Opening of Braille Trail
while the flavor side was encouraged to
connect to health and wellness.
While Givuadan has been a pillar to the
community by giving to the Red Cross,
disaster relief funds, purchase of an ice-res-
cue sled, improvements to Turkey Brook
Park and other town events and projects,
nothing we had longstanding stood for
what we were trying to be about, says
Trombley.
Providing a trail for the vision- impaired
would be a perfect fit for the companys
vision for volunteering since it was a direct
link to the senses.
Trombley says the goal was to support
five areas: vision impairment or blindness;
sustainability; employee involvement; sen-
sory component; and health and wellness.
Mt. Olive Township leaders, meanwhile,
continued on next page
Page 22, May 2014, Tell Them You Saw It In The Randolph News Like us on facebook www.facebook.com/mypaperonline
had a lost trail system that needed to be regenerated,
explains Trombley. There was a three mile stretch in the
Morris Canal Greenway with no plans to resurrect or
improve.
Greenbaum says the project started several years ago
with leaders looking to improve the trail system. We
reached out to some companies to see who would want to
partner to make the town a more beautiful place to live.
Mt. Olive township officials then approached Givaudan
about a year ago with the concept to improve the trail sys-
tem while accommodating the visually impaired.
From April 2013 to Jan. 2014, Givaudan worked with
the New Jersey State Parks and Forest Department of
Environmental Protection, as well as historic societies of
the Morris Canal Greenway to determine guidelines and
identify the projects scope, says Trombley.
About 60 Givuadan employees volunteered their time
along with township workers to install a firm base of
crushed stone along the mile trail; provide excavation work
on the width of the trail providing a level base and hardened
posts; and install 160 bollards or wooden barges along the
trail with rope threaded through each barge, explains
Trombley.
Materials and building construction needs were supplied
by Givaudan; Mt. Olive Twp. provided time and resources
to excavate the project; possible state or federal grant
monies are being to improve thePlane Street Bridge.
With phase one completed, Trombley says plans for
phase two will be to connect to International Drive with
sidewalks and voice recognition to allow trail users to cross
the street with the latest technology; and phase three to re-
scope the existing trail to access the woods from
International Dr. to Waterloo Rd.
His hopes are for the trail to reach three miles All the
way to Waterloo when completed in three to five years.
We are really early on but our hopes are to connect all
that, but there are no firm plans yet, says Trombley.
Some future plans will include a Sensory Garden, picnic
area, benches, and an app to allow visually impaired people
to understand how they are progressing through the trail.
Although we did it for the visually impaired or blind,
Trombley says the trail will be used by everybody. Its
designed for the enjoyment of all. Its an absolutely beauti-
ful stretch of land. Its a very surreal path.
The bollards and rope provide a guided system to pro-
vide assistance with walking. The opportunity is there if
anyone needs assistance.
Trombley mentions the importance of raising awareness
and supporting the visually impaired.
Blindness, vision impairment is a concern that spreads
and effects many people, says Trombley. The new trail
raises awareness to those challenges and encourages the
aid from those who suffer from it.
Nicastro says, the Braille trail is huge benefit to the
area. The first phase which is open now will eventually
continue on to connect to Continental Drive in the ITC.
With many trials that we have or that are being worked on
coming on line we will have one of the best trails in the
area. With the Braille Trail, it will accommodate the visual-
ly impaired allowing more people to enjoy this trail for
years to come.
As far as maintaining the trail, Givaudan and the town-
ship are on board.
Mt. Olive Twp. has agreed to provide services to clean
up weeds, and repair bollards and rope if needed, says
Greenbaum.
We hope to maintain the beauty of the trail, says
Trombley. We will organize groups to help volunteer to
maintain it, like using a leaf blower or picking up garbage.
Through interpretive signs in Braille and other features,
this trail opens up the rich historic and cultural resources of
the Morris Canal to the visually impaired, including the
towpath and walls of the old lock tenders house,
Department of Environmental Protection (DEP)
Commissioner Bob Martin said in a press release. We
thank our partners for undertaking this project serving sight
impaired visitors and are honored to have played a role in
establishing it.
Stanhope and Mt. Olive each received $15,000 in
National Recreational Trail grants from the National Park
Service to enhance the trail, according to the press release.
Enhancements include improvements to the bridge at
Plane Street, installation of wayside exhibits from the Plane
Street Bridge to the Netcong Train Station, and improving
the Houdaille Bridge.
Although rare in nature, other ADA accessible trails are
maintained by the park service throughout the state, includ-
ing portions of the 26-mile Paulinskill Valley Trail in
Sussex and Warren counties and theD&R Canal in central
NJ; and a nature trail in Cape Mays Belleplain State
Forest.

L
ong a curiosity closed to the public, the Blairsden
estate in Peapack-Gladstone will include two land-
scape paintings by Todd L. W. Doney, professor of
visual arts at County College of Morris (CCM), when it
opens as this years Mansion in May.
Its a special honor to have my work on display in this
estate, which will be open to the public for the first time
ever this spring, said Doney.
The opulent 38-room Louis XIV style mansion in the
Somerset Hills was completed in 1903 as the country home
of Clinton Ledyard Blair, an investment banker. He also
was director of several railway companies, including the
Sussex Railroad and Green Bay and Western Railroad, and
a number of other corporations.
The Womens Association of Morristown Medical
Center sponsors Mansion in May each year as the preemi-
nent designer showhouse in the New Jersey-New York area.
More than 50 interior and landscape designers take part in
the event, which serves as a fundraiser for Morristown
Medical Center. Proceeds from this years mansion visits
will go toward an expanded pediatric intensive care unit and
new autism center at the Goryeb Childrens Hospital.
Doneys work at the estate consists of two large-scale
landscape paintings. They will be included in the room
being decorated by Broadfoot & Broadfoot, the gallery
which represents Doney.
Mansion in May runs now through May 31. Tickets to
the event can be purchased online at
www.mansioninmay.org/.
Doney, who began his higher education at a community
college, is widely known for his vivid Neo-Impressionistic
paintings of New Jerseys Great Swamp. His work, reflect-
ing the beauty and variety of nature accented by the bright
colors of the sun, most recently was on display at an exhi-
bition of New Jersey landscapes at Drumthwacket, the gov-
ernors mansion. Last year, he also held a solo exhibit at the
Morris Museum. He also has held one-person exhibits at
Broadfoot & Broadfoot, the Gallery MacEgan in
Morristown, the College of Saint Elizabeth, New Jersey
City University, Griffin Gallery in Madison and at the
Brickton Art Gallery in Park Ridge, IL. His works are in
public and private collections worldwide.
Doney earned his MFA in painting from New Jersey City
University. He joined the CCM faculty in 2011 and teaches
drawing, painting, portfolio and presentation classes at the
college.

entries in 19 different class-
es that include Mustang,
Firebird, Camaro, Antique
(pre-1940 to 1970), VW
Beetle, Antique Trucks, and
Street Rod, among others.
Prizes are awarded in each
class, with judging by show
participants. Best of Show
is chosen by popular vote,
with this years winner
receiving the Ed Hagaman
Memorial Trophy, named in
honor of one of the shows
founders. Last years 1st
Place winner was a 1956
Cadillac Coupe owned by
AJ Biancone of Valhalla
Kustom in Sussex County.
Seeing the smiling faces
of the M&M characters
looking down on cars from
their perch on the building
adds to the fun and is a
reminder of MARS
Chocolate/North Americas
commitment to this event
and the community.
We have learned,
through our continued part-
nership with MARS
Chocolate/North America
that the company has a com-
mitment to help the commu-
nity in every way possible
to ensure people have good
lives and the help they need
when they need it. The Joan
Knechel Cancer Center is
that help, and saves many,
many residents from driving
hours and miles to other
health care facilities when
they can receive that quality
care right in their communi-
ty, said Rotary member
Kevin Guyette.
Robert Eberle, owner of
Panther Valley Pharmacy
and car show chairman, has
said that in addition to ben-
efitting the Joan Knechel
Cancer Center at
Hackettstown Regional
Medical Center, the car
show will also benefit
other local charities sup-
ported by the Rotary Club.
These include the NOR-
WESCAP Food Bank, The
Arc of Warren County, Big
Brothers/Big Sisters, Camp
Merry Heart, DASACC,
and more.
Of course, it is Memorial
Day weekend, and that will
not be forgotten. Popular DJ
Doc South will be playing
music during the day.
However, as is tradition, the
music will stop in the after-
noon for a moment of
silence as South asks the
crowd to remember our vet-
erans and active military.
He will also ask for dona-
tions for the purchase of
phone cards to be given to
service members stationed
overseas so they may call
home.
Food vendors will be on
hand to serve breakfast and
lunch items, including
breakfast sandwiches, burg-
ers and hot dogs, ice cream,
and beverages. Rotary
members will also be selling
chances for a cash 50/50
prize.
In putting on a show like
this, help is needed and
Guyette said special thanks
should be given to the spon-
sors who make it possible:
MARS Chocolate/North
America, Centenary
College, Johnson Dodge,
Hackettstown Hyundai,
Newton KIA, Route 46
Chevrolet, Smith Motors,
WRNJ Radio, and Warren
County Community
College.
Reflecting on the show,
which has been going on for
two decades, Guyette
shared what keeps the
Rotary going strong with
the event:
Many in the club have
been affected directly, or
indirectly, by cancer and it
becomes more important
each year to do what we can
to assist Hackettstown
Regional Medical Center
and the Joan Knechel
Cancer Center in providing
state of the art treatment to
those in our community
who are struggling with
cancer. Besides, its a blast
and we have a great time
making each years car
show better than the last,
she said.

P
atrick is a handsome miniature poodle who is 8 years
old and survived 6 weeks outside during this past bit-
ter winter. He is now being cared for by the Pet
Adoption League of Hackettstown. We noticed he favors
his right leg and often limps after long walks. Recent x-
rays showed he has serious hip dysplasia with his right hip
being the worst (bone rubbing on bone). Surgery to correct
this will cost approximately $2,000, and we are asking sup-
porters to help by donating through the gofundme page that
has been set up at http://www.gofundme.com/8i1kx8 or
through our website at www.palpets.org where it is very
easy to make a tax deductible donation towards Patricks
surgery, or you may send a check to Pet Adoption
League, PO Box 206, Hackettstown, NJ 07840. Our
email is: info@palpets.org and our phone number is 973-

ooking for a fun event for the whole
family to participate in and support a
unique and important organization?
Good Griefs 5K Run and Walk for Hope is a
community-wide fundraiser taking place
within the sprawling Giralda Farms complex
in Madison, NJ on Sunday, June 1st, 2014.
The event begins at 10am.
Good Grief CEO, Joe Primo, states, Our
event helps raise awareness about the tremen-
dous impact grief has on kids and provides
support for Good Grief's programs. Your con-
tribution makes a difference because Good
Grief's programs are free of charge. After the
death of a mom, dad, brother or sister, chil-
dren who receive support can grow-up emo-
tionally healthy and able to lead meaningful
and productive lives. By supporting Good
Grief and raising hope, you allow us to better
the lives of children and families.
Run or walk in honor of someone impor-
tant to you! By supporting Good Grief, you
help to advocate for families and make a dif-
ference in the lives of kids who need a caring
place to remember and share, while being
empowered to address their grief and develop
healthy coping skills. Since 2007, Good Grief
has served more than 400 families and 1,000
children from over 150 New Jersey towns.
Event participants can run a USATF certi-
fied 5K course or walk 2 miles. Both routes
are on paved, traffic-free pathways and enter
the neighboring towns of Madison and
Chatham. Participants can also fundraise for
Good Grief, customizing their own fundrais-
ing webpage for friends and family to spon-
sor them and help make a difference.
The day will be filled with fun for the
whole family: face painting and balloon art
for the children, kids dashes where kids ages
4-11 sprint up to 100 yards, arts and crafts
activities, a DJ, and refreshments. The first
500 registrants will receive a t-shirt as well as
a drawstring backpack. The event is spon-
sored by AmeriHealth New Jersey, Bayer
HealthCare, JBK Associates, and Atlantic
Health System.
For more information, please visit
www.good-grief.org/4hope to register to run
or walk in our event, and then to begin
fundraising or make a donation.
Good Grief's mission is to normalize grief
in our communities through education, advo-
cacy, and year-round grief support programs
for grieving children, teens, and adults.
Through our peer-support programs and edu-
cational workshops, Good Grief creates a
community and environment that normalizes
grief and honors the individual grief journey.
Programs are offered for English and
Spanish-speaking families.

O
n Saturday June 7th the West Orange National
Historic Park of the Thomas Alva Edison site will
celebrate Edison Day. This is a day of free admis-
sion and special programs for every age. The park has col-
laborated with West Orange partners to bring the largest
Edison Day ever! Included in Edison Day is recognition to
New Jerseys 350th anniversary. Edison Day guests can
attend the traveling New Jersey Hall of Fame Mobile
Museum. The Mobile Museum is the place where Bruce
Springsteen and Jon Bon Jovi get to share honors with
Thomas Edison in the NJ Hall of Fame.
Edisons innovations are still inspiring in the 21st
Century. Think electric car. Edison promoted the use of
electric cars using his batteries over 100 years ago. The NJ
Electric Auto Association be will be at the Edison Day
event. Attendees with get to meet and talk to real-world
owners of electric cars - get the low-down without the
media hype. Meet owners of Tesla, Nissan, Ford, Toyota,
Honda and more. Find out what it's really like to drive elec-
tric. The Electric Cars will be parading in at 11am and then
parade out at 4pm. Electric car drivers will be hanging out
all day where Edison kept his electric cars at his estate
home garage at Glenmont just a mile from the Edison labo-
ratory (check main visitor center for passes to Glenmont).
A tradition on Edison Day is recording music. Live
musical bands get to record their music exactly the same
way Edison did back in 1897 on wax cylinders. Four
groups of New Jersey musicians will record on 100 year old
phonographs. Attendees get to listen in and decide if it
sounds like the MP3 music of today.
We can only wonder what Edison would have thought
about this his lab and home in West Orange, NJ being a
National Historic Park site. Would he think it is a hoot that
a kid can earn his/her Junior Ranger badge and patch with
his name on it? Even though this park is a manmade won-
der, it still receives its own Junior Ranger park badge and
patch.
Edison Day is the perfect time to become a Junior
Ranger. Those who enrolled in the National Park Service
Junior Ranger program are happy to learn New Jersey has
12 National Park sites. Many have started their NPS Junior
Ranger patch and badge collection when they were young
children and now find an opportunity to continue their col-
lection again as adults. You are never too old to be a Junior
Ranger. There is a dedicated website for each Park.
Youngster or the young at heart can get a head start on the
Junior Ranger experience or extend it after visiting the park
site. To obtain the park badge there is a set of Junior
Ranger workbook activities for children from ages 5 and up
to complete to attain their badge. After they successfully
completed their list of activities they must take an oath that
they promise to share their knowledge with others and
enjoy and protect all National Parks. This recognition cer-
tificate is signed by a Park Ranger and presented to them
along with their badge.

T
he Knights of Columbus, Council 5410, based in
Flanders, NJ, will host a blood drive in co-ordination
with The Blood Center of New Jersey, on Saturday,
June 7, 2014. The event will take place at the council hall on
3 Schmitt Lane, in Old Flanders (across the RR tracks from
the Flanders Fire Dept). Thebloodmobile will be available
from 8:00AM to1:00PM. It is often said that Life can turn on
a dime. No one likes to think about bad things happening to
good people, but sometimes they do. People have accidents
or become ill and must rely on both expertise of the medical
community and the generosity of volunteer blood donors
who take the time to give of themselves for others. Blood
donors must be at least 18 years of age (17 if a signed
parental permission slip is provided- forms available
through the BCNJ). For regular donations weight needs to
be 120 pounds or more, for Alyx (2 units of red blood cells)
males must be 5ft 1inch, weigh at least 130 pounds, females
must be at least 5 ft 5 inch tall and weigh at least 150lbs.
Donors must have their social security number with them
and a signed or picture form of identification. Questions on
eligibility can be address directly with the BCNJ nursing
department at 800-652-5663 Ext 132, general questions on
the blood drive can be addressed by calling 973-676-4700.
