All-girls school
in Middletown
violates pact
with state DEP

MIDDLETOWN - A private all-girls high school expects to finish out the school year in Croydon Hall,
even though the schools continued presence violates
a conservation agreement between the township and
the state.
Trinity Hall has been paying the township $20,000 a
month for the use of Croydon Hall, which Middletown
purchased nearly 30 years ago through a state program that is meant to keep parkland and open space
from becoming developed.
But since November, after 30 months of sanctioned
operation, the school has been open without permission to be there from the New Jersey Department of
Environmental Protection.
They are without lease, they are without (state)
approval, Pauline Hynes, a Middletown resident
critical of the arrangement, told the Asbury Park
Press. They are all making up the rules as they go
along.
The continued use of Croydon Hall puts Middletown out of compliance with the Green Acres
program, according to a letter the DEP sent Middletown in January. Green Acres was created in 1961 to
buy up unused or abandoned properties and turn them

While decades of research shows

young adults tend to adopt the political
ideals of their parents, there is scant evidence of that with Genesis Pimentel, a
Georgian Court University senior and ardent supporter of Democrat Bernie Sanders.
My parents are actually disappointed.
Theyre very conservative, said Pimentel, whose hometown is Trenton. Usually
when I go home I have to take off all my
Bernie Sanders stickers and put away my
campaign stuff.
Pimentel is among legions of Sanders
supporters on New Jerseys college campuses, which like their counterparts
across the country have been hotbeds of
support for Sanders sometimes insurgent-like, anti-establishment campaign
for president.
At Rutgers University, Sanders
supporters meet weekly to map out

MARLBORO - The rain only brought more sorrow

for Harry Miller during a recent visit to the cemetery.
The footstones of mostly World War II veterans lay
in still pools of rain water.
There were literally small lakes throughout the
cemetery, said Miller, 55. The Aberdeen resident
said up to a foot of water covered some areas at Forest
Green Park Cemetery. These people are underwater.
Its very upsetting, it really is.
It seemed of little comfort to him that the grave of
his father, Isadore Miller, who also was a war veteran,
was spared.
Paula Lerner, president of Forest Green Park, said
it is the worst time of year for cemeteries because of
the weather.
We had a lot of rain, we have had a lot of burials in
sections that we cant go back in to properly fix
