Architect provides update for school improvements Projects are funded through $35.8 million bond referendum By Lea Kahn Staff Writer
The sounds of hammers, saws and nail guns are filling the air in the Hopewell Valley Regional School District as workers tackle the additions, renovations and rehabilitation projects funded by a $35.8 million bond referendum. Voters approved the bond referendum in September 2016 to pay for an assortment of projects, ranging from upgrades to the media centers, playgrounds and
restrooms, and new roofs, windows and doors. Last week, architect George Duthie offered an update on the projects’ progress to the Board of Education, starting with upgrades to the school district’s communications system. The cabling for the district-wide clocks, public address and messaging system is expected to be completed by the end of August, Duthie said. At the Toll Gate Elementary School, the existing HVAC (heating and air conditioning) mechan-
County implementing vote-by-mail system By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer
Mercer County voters have the option of casting their ballots at the mail box or Post Office, something the county plans to let them know about if they don’t already. County Clerk Paula Sollami Covello on Wednesday announced applications to vote by mail would be sent to all registered voters starting the week of Aug. 1. There are some 227,000 voters in Mercer. At a press conference from the Board of Elections conference room in Trenton, she said the idea is a way to increase voter participation. She pointed to recent examples of low turnout in Mercer of 14 percent for the June primary and of 55 percent for the presidential race in November. “That’s a very low turnout for a presidential election,” she said. New Jersey enacted a law, during the Corzine administration, that allows voting by mail for any reason, she said. “You can simply vote by mail because you want to do so,” she
said. “But many people are not aware that this is an option. They still believe that you have to be absent or traveling to vote by mail.” Voters will have until Oct. 31 to submit the application to her office, but they will not have to pay the postage for sending back the form or their paper ballot. She made clear that voting by mail is optional, not mandatory. “If you decide you don’t want to fill out this application and mail it back in, you can still exercise your right to go to the polls and vote at your polling location,” Sollami Covello said. She noted other counties send vote-by-mail applications to their registered voters, including Camden, Bergen and Middlesex, representing a swath of southern, northern and central parts of the state. “And they have seen an increase in voter participation as a result,” she said. Asked about how to guard against potential voter fraud, Bonnie Epps, county supervisor of See VOTE, Page 3A
ical units in the gym have been removed. Workmen are waiting for the new equipment to arrive, Duthie said. Moving over to Hopewell Valley Central High School, work on the roof replacement project is going well, he said. It has been under way for several weeks and good progress is being made “even with the rain,” he added. “It is moving along. It is going very, very well,” Duthie said, noting that the high school re-roofing project should be finished within
the next couple of weeks. The roofers will move on to the Hopewell Elementary School for a roof replacement project. Duthie also told the school board that preliminary steps have been taken on the other Central High School projects. Several meetings have been held with the contractor to discuss scheduling and coordination. The on-site work has been completed - marking out the location of utilities, bringing in an office trailer and storage trailers, and
some of the preliminary survey work, he said. Among the renovations at Central High School is a new entrance at the front of the school. The current entrance is not handicapped accessible, for example, which impedes some visitors’ access. The new entrance includes a secure entrance lobby and a multipurpose room that can be used as a public meeting space. It also includes new offices for See IMPROVEMENTS, Page 3A

Trenton man indicted in murder of local woman By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer
215-354-3146
The man accused of slaying a woman in Hopewell Township in April was indicted last week on murder and related charges. Brian Sheppard was charged July 19 in a five-count indictment with killing Laura Perez, 37, on April 25 and eluding law enforcement during a high-speed chase through parts of Mercer County on April 27. The Mercer County
Prosecutor’s Office has not disclosed, publicly, why Perez, of Trenton, was with Sheppard, 53. He allegedly had “brought” the Trenton woman to the house on Washington Crossing-Pennington Road, where he was a renter, before her death, the Prosecutor’s Office has said. The Prosecutor’s Office has said the owner of the residence, Anthony L. Olswfski Jr., had alerted township police that he had returned home from work
April 25 to find his black Chevy Silverado missing and Sheppard, his roommate, nowhere to be found and unreachable. Responding law enforcement found the woman’s dead body inside Sheppard’s bedroom, the prosecutor’s office said. She died of “blunt force trauma to the head,” the Prosecutor’s Office has said. In the indictment, Sheppard is charged with possessing a hammer “to use it unlawfully against” Perez.
On April 27, Sheppard was spotted in the Silverado by police in Hamilton, but he led law enforcement on a high-speed chase into Lawrence and West Windsor townships, only for law enforcement to give up the pursuit given how fast and dangerous he allegedly was traveling, the Prosecutor’s Office said. He was arrested April 28, in Hamilton, and remains held in the Mercer County Correction Center, the Prosecutor’s Office has said.
He does not have a court date
scheduled, court records records showed as of Friday. As for Olswfski, he died May
9 of injuries he had suffered May 2 in a roughly 30-foot fall into an electrical vault at the Rutgers Bio-
medical and Health Services
Newark campus, where he was
working for Lighton Industries. He was 49.

DITSCHMAN/FLEMINGTON FORD- LINCOLN CELEBRATES LATEST ACHIEVEMENTS FLEMINGTON, NJ… Ditschman/Flemington Ford-Lincoln hosted a lunch in honor of their staff to celebrate their recent achievements including Ford’s President’s Award for the year 2016 and the Ford e2 Employee Excellence Certification for 11 exemplary employees. “Everything we do counts,” said Steve Kalafer, Chairman of Ditschman/ Flemington Ford-Lincoln and the Flemington Car & Truck Country Family of Brands addressing his employees at the celebratory luncheon. “And every day that we forget that everything counts, we’ll be like everyone else. This is our Ditschman/Flemington Ford-Lincoln team. You show us the way and everybody aspires to be and do what you have accomplished.” This is the 20th time that Ditschman/Flemington Ford-Lincoln has achieved Ford’s President’s Award Honors. The award – which was created in 1998 – recognizes dealers for excellence in providing outstanding customer service and satisfaction. In order to achieve the President’s Award, dealers must exceed customer expectations every day in every department. Eligibility is determined via customer survey responses regarding their sales and service satisfaction. The Ford e2 Employee Excellence award salutes the top-performing employees who have achieved among the highest levels of customer satisfaction in both sales and service. It is designed to recognize and reward success in Customer Satisfaction, Professionalism and Education on an individual basis. Having eleven recipients at Ditschman/Flemington Ford is among the highest number of employees to receive the award from any Ford dealership in the region. “Bottom line is that our staff genuinely respects and lives to satisfy our customers,” said Jim O’Brien, General Manager at Ditschman/Flemington Ford- Lincoln. “We work as a team and complement each other with our talents. I am extremely proud and commend everyone for a job well done.” “The President’s Award is the hardest award to win at Ford Motor Company,” said Greg Thompson, Ford Motor Company Regional Manager. “You have to be successful in sales, service and parts. This marks 4 times in a row at Ford Motor Company that you guys are the best.” Ditschman/Flemington Ford- Lincoln is a proud member of the Flemington Car & Truck Country Family of Brands - Family, Independent…Not Corporate – which represents 16 automotive brands in the central New Jersey marketplace.

WATCH YOUR LIP Some people have a habit of biting their lower lips, which not only leads to chapped lips, but it also pushes teeth out of their proper positions. When the lower lip is persistently bitten or sucked, it may cause the upper front teeth to jut out over the lowers. Conversely, biting or sucking the top lip can cause the lower front teeth to be pushed in. In either case, orthodontic treatment may be necessary to coax teeth back to their proper positions. The best approach is one that prevents the habit before it causes damage. Parents who notice that their children bite their lips after their permanent teeth begin to come in should see the orthodontist for an evaluation 7KH EHQH¿WV RI orthodontic treatment often go beyond the obvious physical changes of an improved bite and straighter teeth; it’s also a great way to improve a person’s overall self-image.

It’s going to cost Hopewell Valley Regional School District elementary school students an extra 5 cents to buy lunch in September - and the Board of Education is not happy about it. School district officials were told that the district either had to raise the price by 5 cents for a “standard” lunch or risk losing about $90,000 in federal funding through the U.S. Depart-

$3.85. Lunches - both “standard” and “premium” - also are not affected at the middle school and high school. Colavita said the United States Department of Agriculture’s National School Lunch program reviewed the lunch prices and informed school district officials that the standard lunch cost was under-priced by 5 cents. The United States Department of Agriculture uses a formula to determine lunch prices, and the Hopewell Valley Regional School District’s price for
the standard lunch at the elementary school was not where it needed to be, Colavita said. If the school board does not want to raise the prices, it has the option to drop out of the program and lose about $90,000 in funding, he said. Last year, the school district received $91,340 in federal and state reimbursements. School board president Lisa Wolff said the board was not happy about having to raise lunch prices. School district officials “work hard” so they do not have to
raise lunch prices, she said. Raising the school lunch price is “counter to what (we) want to do,” Wolff said. School district officials seek to keep lunch prices as low as possible, she said, adding that unless the district raises the price, it will lose funding. Wolff said it was “ridiculous” to force the school district to raise the lunch price. She said that on principle, she does not like to raise the school lunch price, but that’s the only way that the district can avoid losing $90,000.

Rare plants and animals need help
A red-shouldered hawk soars above ridges and valleys. A showy lady’s slipper orchid blooms deep in the forest. A bog turtle suns itself on a log. A bobcat hunts at twilight. Pine Barrens tree frogs croak throughout the woods on a warm night. An osprey swoops into the sea and emerges with a fish. These nature sights and
sounds in this state we’re in are as diverse as they are beautiful. Thanks to a temperate climate and varied geography - everything from ocean beaches to rugged mountains - this small, densely-developed state has more plant and animal species than plenty of states many times larger.
New Jersey spans both northern and southern landscapes, so numerous species reach the limits of their northernmost or southernmost ranges here. And New Jersey serves as one of the world’s most important pathways for migrating birds. New Jersey’s thousands of species include 415
mammals, breeding birds, reptiles, amphibians and freshwater fish; 500 migratory birds, marine mammals and saltwater fish; and tens of thousands of invertebrates. More than 2,100 native plants grow here, including several species found nowhere else in the world. During spring and fall
migrations, 1.5 million shorebirds and as many as 80,000 raptors stop overs in New Jersey. But today, many of these native plants and animals face serious threats, including habitat loss, competition from invasive species, land disturbance, contamination and climate change. Eighty-six New Jersey
animals are listed by the state’s Endangered and Nongame Species Program as endangered or threatened. Endangered species are those whose prospects for survival in New Jersey are in immediate jeopardy, while threatened species are those that could become endangered if conditions furSee STATE, Page 8A

ther deteriorate. A total 818 plants are considered either endangered or “species of concern.� The species of concern designation means these plants are monitored to keep an eye on possible status changes. Red-shouldered hawks, showy lady’s slipper orchids, bog turtles, bobcats, Pine Barrens tree frogs and ospreys are all among those species in peril. But there’s also hope! Preserving natural lands especially large, intact properties - is a major key to protecting New Jersey’s biodiversity. New Jersey has five national wildlife refuges, more than 170 state-owned wildlife management areas, state parks and state forests, and hundreds of tracts of forests and meadows owned by counties, municipalities and nonprofit land conservation organizations. Natural areas extend from High Point State Park in Sussex County to the tip of the Cape May peninsula. New natural areas are continually created. In 2014, New Jersey voters approved a ballot question for a permanent, sustainable source of land preservation funding through the use of Corporate Business Tax revenues. Funds are now flowing to the state’s Green Acres Program for many new open space projects. In addition to preserving more land and habitat,

TAKING RESPONSIBILITY
The motivation to preplan a funeral often comes out of consideration and love for the immediate family members who will survive you. Funeral preplanning spares your survivors the stress of making difďŹ cult decisions under pressure while enabling you to choose the speciďŹ c services you want. When preplanning, put your preferences in writing and give copies to family members and your attorney. Also be sure to keep a copy in a readily accessible place. Avoid putting the only copy of your preferences in a safety deposit box, which precludes making arrangements on a weekend or holiday. Do not designate your preferences in your will, which is often not found or read until after the funeral. Preplanning a funeral does not have to be
stressful. Whether you decide to just provide personal information, make all or most of your selections, or completely plan and pay for your funeral in advance, we will explain all of your choices and respect your decisions. For more information, please call 609-737-2900. We are located at 21 North Main St. Continuous Family Service Since 1881.

MERCER COUNTY NOTES Jewish Family & Children’s Service accepting program participants Jewish Family & Children’s Service of Greater Mercer County is currently accepting 11th and 12th grade teens (as of the 2017-2018 school year) to participate in Gesher LeKesher, a Jewish peer leadership program. As Gesher “Madrichim� (Peer Leaders), teens lead a group of 7th - 9th grade “Talmidim� (Learners) in outreaches addressing trending topics from a Jewish perspective including friendships, the impact of social media, peer pressure, healthy dating relationships and addressing anti-Semitism on campus. This is a great opportunity to develop leadership skills which can be used in college and beyond while meeting and working with other Jewish 11th and 12th graders in the Greater Princeton Mercer Bucks area. Last year’s Peer Leaders represented 10 area high schools. Gesher LeKesher meets six hours each month - two Monday night trainings from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. and an additional outreach time either Monday/Wednesday night or Sunday morning. For more information, please visit www.jfcsonline.org/gesher-lekesher/ or contact Celeste Albert at 609-987-8100 x210 or celestea@jfcsonline.org. Songbird banding program planned at preserve On select Sunday mornings this summer, visitors to the Fiddler’s Creek Preserve in Titusville will experience a “behind-the-nets� look at an active field research project. Bird in the Hand: Songbird Banding Program will take place on Sunday, July 30, from 8:30 to 10:30 a.m. Visitors will learn about the research taking place and see wild birds up close as they are banded, measured and released. A member of the Mercer County Park Commission’s Naturalist staff will act as a host to the guests by interpreting the banding process, as well as answering questions about the purpose, goals and importance of conservation projects of this nature. As part of the research taking place, wild birds will be gently and safely captured in delicate nets by a licensed bird bander and ornithologist. While the birds
are in hand, the Naturalist staff will share information about each species’ identification, behavior and ecology, and guests will get to see these beautiful creatures up close before they are released. This program emphasizes the importance of science to conservation and land stewardship. The Fiddler’s Creek Preserve is the Park Commission’s youngest reforestation area. Volunteers and staff planted trees and shrubs in fall 2012. As the reforestation area grows into forest, regular monitoring of the plant and bird community is important. Birds are considered an indicator species. Their presence, or lack thereof, is directly related to habitat type and quality. As the recently introduced plants and trees emerge to change the vegetation composition, the bird species frequenting the area should also change and develop. The bird banding program will monitor the dynamics of the preserve’s bird community. Species previously banded include field and song sparrow, common yellowthroat, indigo bunting, bobolink and many others. This program requires registration and children over 6 years old are welcome. Please be aware this program is held in a field; shelter and restrooms will not be available. Fee is $20 per adult, $10 per child. For more information and to register, please call 609-888-3218 or e-mail natureprograms@mercercounty.org. Park commission plans Aquatic Adventure Camp The Mercer County Park Commission’s Nature Programs will host thrilling and educational summer camps for children ranging in age from pre-K to eighth grade. The summer camps are developed and instructed by the Park Commission’s team of Naturalists. The Aquatic Adventure Camp will be held at Mercer County Marina, July 31 through Aug. 4 from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. If your child loves being on the water observing nature, then Aquatic Adventure Camp will be a perfect fit. Designed to balance the fun of summer with science, Aquatic Adventure Camp will have your child diving into fresh water ecology, testing Mercer Lake’s water,
kayaking creeks and coves and observing wildlife. Aquatic Adventure Camp also includes activities such as fishing, taking a ride on the pontoon boat, hiking and a cookout. Campers will memorialize their week by making a gyotaku T-shirt to bring home. The Park Commission’s Summer Nature Camps are filled on a first-come, first-served basis and spots are limited. At this time, the Park Commission is unable to provide before or after care for children attending camp. For more information and to download registration forms, please visit https://mercercountyparks.org/#!/activities/summer-nature-camps. Park commission plans first campout on Baldpate Mountain The campfire will be crackling, children laughing and meteors visible in the night sky during the Mercer County Park Commission’s Come Out and Play Campout scheduled for Friday, Aug. 11, to Saturday, Aug. 12, weather permitting. For the first time, families will be able to
spend the night on Baldpate Mountain and experience the park like never before. The Come Out and Play Campout is designed to provide a unique summer experience. Those interested can register through www.mercercountyparks.org. Cost for in-county residents is $20 per person; out-of-county residents, $30 per person. REI will be on site to assist participants with tent setup on Friday evening. Optional activities include a guided night hike, a scavenger hunt by REI, and roasting hot dogs and s’mores over the open campfire. At the summit of Baldpate, campers can enjoy star gazing and the Perseid Meteor Shower, where they may even see some shooting stars. Light breakfast will be provided by Chez Alice Catering on the Strawberry Hill Mansion Patio, followed by a morning yoga session at the summit with Anew Life Yoga to help campers stretch out any kinks.

Nathan Detroit (played by Steve Rosen, second from right) is determined to set up a high-stakes craps games in “Guys and Dolls.”
When You See a Crowd Standing and Cheering Loud... You can bet they just saw ‘Guys and Dolls’ at Bucks County Playhouse By Anthony Stoeckert
Elena Shaddow as Sarah Brown and Clarke Thorell as Sky Masterson in “Guys and Dolls” at Bucks County Playhouse.
tanding ovations have become so common that most of them are meaningless. They’re usually limp affairs, starting with a handful of people who will stand for anything, followed by a few others, and then a few more, probably out of pressure or even to get a head start on exiting the theater. But the on-the-feet appreciation given to Lesli Margherita after the opening night performance of “Guys and Dolls” at the Bucks County Playhouse was the real deal. Most audience members stayed in their seats through the curtain call, cheering enthusiastically for the actors who had thoroughly entertained them for two and a half hours. When Margherita came out, everyone jumped out of their seats and a loud ovation became thunderous. It was a genuinely exciting moment, and well earned because you’re not going to find a better performance on any stage anytime soon. Margherita is brilliant as Miss Adelaide, the frustrated fiancée of Nathan Detroit. She is true to the character but infuses Adelaide with her own personalty. Her voice is a powerhouse, soaring at times. Her exaggerated “New Yawk” accent is a hoot, and she brings terrific touches, like impossibly high hiccups to “Bushel and a Peck,” and some of the funniest eye twitching you’ll ever see. She’s the best reason to see this production, but far from the only one. On stage in New Hope, Pennsylvania, through Aug. 12, this staging, directed by Hunter Foster, is a home run. It’s almost perfect.
“Guys and Dolls” premiered on Broadway in 1950. Its book was written by Abe Burrows and Jo Swerling, based on stories by Damon Runyon. Set in New York City around the 1920s and ’30s, it’s about gamblers and degenerates, and based on this show, those characters made Manhattan one heck of a fun place. Nathan Detroit (played by Steve Rosen) runs a floating crap game, a fact he hides from Miss Adelaide, his fiancée of 14 years. Nathan has a chance to make a lot of money because some wealthy players from around the country are in town looking for action, but the cops are cracking down on gambling, and the only place that will host Nathan’s game is charging $1,000, paid in advance. Nathan tries to swindle Sky Masterson (Clarke Thorell) into a bet about the popularity of cheesecake and strudel, but Sky doesn’t fall for it. Sky does, however, bet Nathan that he can take any woman of Nathan’s choice out to dinner — in Havana. Nathan picks Sarah Brown (Elena Shaddow), the missionary devoted to cleansing Broadway of sinners like Nathan and Sky. “Guys and Dolls” truly is one of the great shows of all time. Frank Loesser wrote the songs, and each and every one of them is terrific. The uptempo numbers are funny and catchy, and the love songs will touch your heart. And in between those songs are two terrific love stories and lots of laughs. As good as everyone is, the female leads stand out because Shaddow is nearly as good as Margherita.
Her voice fills the room on “I’ll Know” when Sarah is resisting Sky (or doing her best to resist him). Then she shows another side of her voice with “If I Were a Bell,” which is sweet and sexy at the same time. Steve Rosen is a fine Nathan Detroit. His singing is solid on “The Oldest Established” but this part really comes down to comedy, and Rosen gets plenty of laughs. He’s very funny during such moments as Nathan trying to get Sky to make the bet; his banter with the owner of a local garage; and especially during Nathan’s antics with Big Julie (Brendan Averett) when the big game finally takes place. Julie, an intimidating presence to say the least, keeps losing, and to change his luck, he rolls his own dice, which don’t have spots — but it’s OK, because he remembers where the spots were. Darius de Haas and Blakely Slaybaugh play Nicely Nicely Johnson and Benny Southstreet, Nathan’s sidekicks, and these two, along with Rosen, do a great job with the show’s Runyon-esque language. And de Haas brings the house down with “Sit Down You’re Rockin’ The Boat.” If there’s a misstep here it’s Thorell as Sky. Thorell’s credits are impressive (“The Front Page,” “Annie,” and “Hairspray” on Broadway), and his voice is superb. But he fumbled some lines throughout the evening, and he didn’t bring the suave associated with Sky. But Thorell does sing Sky’s biggest number, “Luck Be a Lady Tonight” with gusto. “Guys and Dolls” likely has more big laughs than other musicals, especially between Nathan and Miss Adelaide. Nathan may be lying about not gambling anymore, but then Adelaide has told her mother that she and Nathan have been married for more than a decade. Not only that, but she told her mother she and Nathan have five kids, and a sixth on the way. Margherita and Rosen are a delight as Adelaide tells Nathan all of this. But the actors also bring heart to these characters. Rosen’s Nathan is genuinely touched by a letter written by Adelaide’s mother, and on “Sue Me,” which starts off funny, we find out that deep down, these two care about each other. Another heartfelt moment comes when Sarah’s grandfather Arvide (played by Lenny Wolpe) sings “More I Cannot Wish You” to her. The sets by Anna Louizos are charming and relatively simple. They feel like a show rather than a realistic depiction of New York, and it works. Nicole V. Moody’s costumes are spot-on, and Jeremy Dumont’s choreography is perfect. Director Foster stays true to the material, capturing it perfectly, but also bringing some new things, such as a very funny cow and some suggestive butter churning to “Bushel and a Peck.” Toward the end, we’re treated to a real gift when Shaddow and Margherita team up for “Marry the Man Today.” Seeing these two performers sing together was thrilling. The song starts out funny, especially when Sarah corrects Adelaide’s grammar, but by the end, the two voices are soaring and these women are defiant. The only downside is that after they were done, the show was almost over.
“Guys and Dolls” continues at Bucks County Playhouse, 70 S. Main St., New Hope, through Aug. 12. Tickets cost $40-$85; bcptheater.org; 215-8622121.

A Safe Place for New Plays The New Feathers reading series will showcase works by area writers
lays need to be performed, and the New Feathers play-reading series in New Hope is giving the writers of Princeton’s Witherspoon Circle the opportunity to put their newest works in front of an audience. The series will debut at the Raven Resort in New Hope, Pennsylvania, Aug. 6, beginning at 6 p.m. It will continue on the first Sunday of each month (the September reading will take place on the second Sunday because of the Labor Day holiday) through the end of the year. Writers in the Witherspoon Circle meet regularly to share what they’re working on. Many of the members participated in a similar group at Passage Theatre in Trenton. “We’re all playwrights working on projects, and obviously as a writer you write independently in your own room or your own area, so it’s really helpful to hear your work out loud, interact with other people and hear people’s opinions on it,” says James Christy Jr., a playwright whose 2016 drama “A Great War” received four Barrymore Awards, which honor the best work in Philadelphia theater each year. Christy says meetings usually involve writers reading short chunks of their works, but sometimes they also read full plays. “It’s for writers by writers and it’s a very positive atmosphere, we’re supportive and everybody is rooting for each other,” he says, adding that getting feedback is an important part of the writing process. “The thing about feedback is that it can be very helpful, but it also can be damaging if the feedback is not delivered in a helpful and structured way,” Christy says. New Feathers was started by Mandee K. Hammerstein. Hammerstein’s career has involved a lot of work in theater, including at the Bucks County Playhouse after it reopened in 2012. When the Raven’s general manager, Armando Martinez, was looking for events to bring to the resort’s entertainment room, Hammerstein went to her theater roots. “I’ve always loved new work, working behind the scenes with actors and singers, and getting to know their process was the most exciting part of anything I’ve ever
done,” Hammerstein says. “For example, at the Bucks County Playhouse, just seeing the development progress and how people embody these characters seemed so artistic and creative and new, and it felt like such a privilege to be in that room.” The Aug. 6 program will include staged readings of six works, each running about 10 to 15 minutes: “The Forever Question” by Christy; “Good Counsel” by Lisa Huberman; “The Big Kiss Off” by Michele Aldin Kushner; “To Greatness!” by Greg Nami; “Compelling Spencer” by Ian August, and “It’s Only Logical” by Barry M. Putt Jr. Christy says his play is part of a longer piece. “It’s a relationship comedy, a man and a woman, and we’re seeing them through the stages of their relationship,” he says. “There are a lot of flashbacks and flash-forwards.” As it starts, the couple has a young child and the woman is raising the idea of having a second. “They’re in the middle of all the feedings and the teething and it’s a difficult time and the father can’t wrap his head around why she wants to have another child right now,” Christy says. “This will be part of a piece about why we have kids — why people go through this whole process and lose their independence and all these things.” Hammerstein says the name “New Feathers” plays on the Raven, which was named after the Edgar Allan Poe poem. She also notes that the resort is known for acceptance and being non-judgmental, making it the perfect place for writers to reveal their newest works and as a result, themselves. “With all of those things in mind, it just seemed to make for a perfect home for someone to go up there and show their work for the very first time,” Hammerstein says.

ARB names executive director
American Repertory Ballet and Princeton Ballet School announced today that Julie Diana Hench has been selected as the organization’s executive director. Her start date is Sept. 1, 2017. “On behalf of the board and the entire organization, I am very pleased to extend a warm welcome to Julie Diana Hench,” said Chuck Metcalf, chair of the organization’s board of trustees. “American Repertory Ballet and Princeton Ballet School are recognized as leaders in their respective fields throughout the tri-state area, as well as on the national landscape, and it is imperative we have an experienced leader to maintain and build on the excellent reputation of the entire organization.” Hench most recently served as executive director of Juneau Dance Theatre, a nonprofit arts organization in Juneau, Alaska. She managed all administrative aspects of the school including finances, development, personnel, programming, outreach, promo-
tion and marketing. During her tenure at JDT, she facilitated collaborations with local artists and arts groups to enrich the dancers’ experiences, grow audiences and broaden the organization’s impact. She helped JDT become a partnering organization with the Kennedy Center’s “Any Given Child” initiative in an effort to expand arts education in Juneau public schools, and worked with JDT Artistic Director Zachary Hench to create Juneau’s first-ever summer intensive program. She also taught all levels of the school and served as a repetiteur for the George Balanchine Trust, enabling the school to present Balanchine’s work onstage. “I am thrilled to join the team and look forward to guiding this organization into its next exciting chapter,” Hench said. “All the pieces are in place for tremendous growth, enabling American Repertory Ballet and Princeton Ballet School to further its mis-
sion of bringing joy, beauty and artistry to New Jersey and beyond.” Hench received a B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania and served as President of the University of Pennsylvania’s Association of Alumnae. During her presidency, she raised funds for student scholarships, organized educational events and worked to restructure board committees in an effort to better achieve the association’s mission. She has written for Playbill and continues to research and write for various dance publications such as Dance, Dance Spirit and Pointe, and has been named Contributing Editor at Dance Teacher magazine. A New Jersey native, Hench studied at the School of American Ballet in New York City, where she was a Princess Grace Award nominee. She danced as a principal with San Francisco Ballet and Pennsylvania Ballet, performing lead roles in classical repertoire such as “La Sylphide,” “Romeo and
Juliet,” “Swan Lake,” “Giselle” and “The Sleeping Beauty.” She has worked with choreographers such as Christopher Wheeldon, William Forsythe and Mark Morris, among others, and appeared as a guest artist with New York City Ballet and several international touring groups. Princeton Ballet School was founded in 1954 by Audrée Estey. It currently serves approximately 1,200 students, starting at age 3, and includes a large open enrollment division for adults. Princeton Ballet School has studios in Cranbury, New Brunswick, and Princeton and offers classes in ballet, modern dance, jazz, hip-hop, CardioBallet and CoMBo (Conditioning for the Mind and Body). Students from the school have gone on to dance in professional ballet and contemporary dance companies in the United States and abroad.

Van of Hopes and Dreams
Affirmative Art made a stop at the Arts Council of Princeton’s ‘Pop In’ space on Hulfish Street. By Anthony Stoeckert Features Editor On July 20, I found myself sharing bad drawings I made to a table of strangers, while talking about my hopes and dreams. I was at the Arts Council of Princeton’s new “Pop In” space to cover an event there and find out what the space is all about. The event was a workshop by Eirik Jarl Trondsen and Sika Foyer, who were in town as part of their “Affirmative Art Tour.” Affirmative Art is a project Trondsen and Foyer founded in which participants “visually define our purpose in life on paper,” according to Trondsen. The exercise involved writing and drawing on a large piece of paper. In the middle of the paper was a triangle, which had four triangles drawn into it. In one triangle, I was to list three activities that are important to me. In another I was to draw three people who support my dreams, and in another, three things I’m proud of. In the center triangle, I was assigned to draw an image of myself. I held my ground and resisted doing that last task. Sharing details of my life with strangers is not my kind of thing, but Trondsen, who was born in Norway and lived in Africa in 20 years, convinced me. He has a way about him, as he introduced me to everyone as his “friend,” even though we had met minutes earlier, and encouraged me and created a welcoming atmosphere. My “art” (I use that term loosely)
LOOSE ENDS
consisted of simple faces — stick figures without sticks, but Trondsen praised them. “Oh come on,” I said after he complimented a face I had drawn. “No, there’s something there,” he replied. “You’re very kind,” I told him. Trondsen and Foyer’s visit was part of their Affirmative Art Tour of the U.S. They previously toured the country in 2016, including a visit to the Princeton Montessori School. For this year, Foyer reached out to the arts council about a workshop in Princeton. As it turned out, the arts council had the ideal spot in its “Pop In” space at 10 Hulfish St. in Princeton, next to JaZams toy store. It’s also near this summer’s “Energy Playground” Parklet, a rest and activity spot that is located in parking spaces outside JaZams. During Affirmative Art’s stop in Princeton, the van Trondsen and Foyer travel in was parked next to the Parklet. The van is painted with various scenes, each from a different stop on the tour. Trondsen started Affirmative Art in Africa in 2012. “Living in Kenya, I realized, ‘How can you make people express what they truly want, what’s in their heart, what they want for their community or as individuals?’” he said. “So that’s where it started from, Affirmative Art. It’s a tool for people to join in and discuss what they want for the future, either for themselves or the
Eirik Jarl Trondsen drove his van of art to Princeton during a stop by Affirmative Art at the Arts Council of Princeton’s summer “Pop In” space. community.” Then MIT gave him a fellowship to work on the project, which is when he got the idea to bring the Affirmative Art concept across the States. “In the U.S. there also are people who have lost direction and art can be a tool for giving people direction through an image they make themselves,” Trondsen said. So in May of 2016, Trondsen and Foyer drove the van from MIT to Los Angeles. “The van become part of the art piece, where people express their dreams or sometimes where they came from,” Trondsen said. As he talked, he pointed to images on the van that were painted in such places as Cleveland, Flint, Michigan, D.C. Philadelphia and Harlem among others. The “Pop In” space is sponsored by the Arts Council of Princeton and Palmer Square. It will host DIY-type public workshops and other events during the summer.
The Stonybrook-Millstone Watershed will host WOW (Wonders of Water!) programs throughout August. The workshops will focus on streams and what people can do to prevent water pollution and flooding. Demonstrations will be about stream critters, water conservation, rain barrels and more. These programs are scheduled for Aug. 3, Aug. 10, Aug. 17 and Aug. 24, 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. On Aug. 10, from 5:30-7:30 p.m., the “Pop In” space will host “Bringing Light to Re-purposed Threads.” Participants can learn how to make an LED key chain out of re-purposed fabric, building a simple circuit and embedding an LED light into a fabric key chain. The program is for people 6 and up, and will be presented by Sustainable Princeton. For more information, go to artscouncilofprinceton.org.

Sips and song at open mic night Talent is getting a chance to shine at a Princeton coffee spot “Look at me, I’m as helpless as a kitten up a tree . . . “ On a recent 95-degree day, the calming piano rendition of Erroll Garner’s jazz standard “Misty” emanating from the speakers at the Nassau Street Starbucks belied the chaotic environment. The over-burdened ice machine was malfunctioning, as a tour group of about 40 Princeton University wannabes and their parents crowded into the store. A dozen teenagers (I think from one of Princeton University’s summer camps) followed the tourists and ordered complicated creamy, frothy, and syrupy drinks. The overwhelmed Starbucks servers must have felt as helpless as kittens stranded up a tree. Much to my forever admiration, however, they stayed focused and continued to serve the thirsty and demanding hordes in an efficient and friendly manner. “Music helps,” said Connor Ernst, one of the shift supervisors for the store. Connor was referring to more than the soothing Starbucks background music. He decided several months ago to bring music to the forefront at Starbucks by bringing live music to the rear of the store on a regular basis. Ernst — with the help of his colleagues, friends and relatives — is producing open mic nights at the store, when people of all ages get to serve up their musical talents (for the most part) to anyone who will listen. Since March, four Open Mic Nights have taken place, with a fifth expected to take place in August. The 23-year-old Ernst, with tattooed pictures of a keyboard, guitar pic and musical note on his arms, has made music a key ingredient in every aspect of his life. At Hightstown High School, he was known as “the music man” for his love of performing (keyboard, guitar, and vocals), writing music, and arranging other performances. He chose to go to college at Bel-
Connor and Claire Ernst performing at an open mic night at Starbucks in Princeton. Connor started organizing the shows in March. mont University in Nashville, Tennessee, where the 24-7 music scene — bursting with talent and creativity — captivated him. Convinced music production, as opposed to performance, was his future, he returned to New Jersey with the goal of bringing Nashville to Princeton. His employer is allowing him to take a small step toward his career goal of becoming a music producer by being in charge of these open mic nights at the Princeton Starbucks. In addition to getting experience in the production of music events, Ernst’s open mic nights allow him to be a music missionary and bring the joy of the Nashville music environment to Princeton and “in doing so, give back to the community of people in Princeton who support the store,” he said. “Chain stores often get a bad
rap for not being part of the community, but I know this store is like a second home to many of our customers.“ Ernst acknowledged, however, that he is not the musical genius in the family. “My younger sister Claire, a junior at Hightstown High School, acquired the real talent gene from my parents who are both professional musicians,” he said. His father Charlie Ernst is a jazz pianist and his mother Lisa is a singer. They met while on tour with Mary Wilson, best known as the founding member and longestmember of The Supremes. “Claire can do everything I do [write, sing, play keyboard and guitar] but does it so much better,” Ernst said. “She has raw talent. At the first open mic night, Claire and I did most of the performing. But now we are attracting
a lot of people who want to perform. At the last event, we had more than 40 people.” His 20-year-old brother Jack also works at Starbucks and considers himself a music aficionado with zero talent of his own. “I share my brother’s enthusiasm for these events and help as much as I can, but I leave the performing to my older brother and younger sister,” Jack said. The two brothers look forward to the possibility that Starbucks will combine these open mic nights with coffee tastings and food promotions. The Ernst siblings believe that music — with a shot of coffee — soothes the frazzled soul and builds bridges to the community.

HEALTH MATTERS
Wear and tear on joints can cause osteoarthritis causing discomfort. And if the condition worsens, joint bones can rub together, resulting in more significant pain that may keep people from participating in activities they love. This can occur in almost any joint in the body, though it occurs most often in the hips, knees and spine.
What is osteoarthritis? Arthritis is a general term meaning joint inflammation. There are more than 100 different types of arthritis, but the most common type is osteoarthritis, which affects approximately 27 million Americans. Osteoarthritis is a progressive breakdown and erosion of the cartilage in a joint. Cartilage is a rubbery material that covers the ends of the bones in normal joints. It helps ensure that joint bones don’t rub together. Over time, as cartilage wears away, the joint can no longer function properly. This produces swelling and stiffness, which can impact the tendons and ligaments of the joint
What are the symptoms? Symptoms of osteoarthritis can range from mild to debilitating. They may include: • Swelling and stiffness in the joint • Pain or a dull ache that usually develops gradually over time • Pain that is worse in the morning and feels better with activity • Pain that flares up with vigorous activity Although symptoms can vary, in most cases they gradually progress and become more severe over time.
What causes osteoarthritis? Aging increases the chances of developing osteoarthritis, though the severity of the disease is different for everyone. Even people in in early stages of life can develop some form of arthritis. Other risk factors include: • Family history • Obesity • Injuries like fractures in the joint •Overuse

measures such as anti-inflammatory medications, weight loss, low-impact exercises, physical therapy and injections. Various holistic remedies are also available, which may improve the symptoms of osteoarthritis in its early stages. If conservative treatments do not work and pain or mobility is negatively impacting your quality of life, joint replacement surgery may be considered. Pain at night or difficulty completing simple tasks, like putting on socks or walking up stairs, are often red flags that something needs to be done. In addition, X-rays can show irreversible joint damage, indicating the need for joint replacement.

If you wait too long, however, and lose muscle mass and flexibility it can make your recovery more challenging. If you experience chronic knee or hip pain, see your doctor sooner rather than later to learn about your options for treatment. The Jim Craigie Center for Joint Replacement at UMCP offers a thorough program of pre- and post-operative care for patients receiving total knee or hip replacements. The center was recently rated as “high performing” in the 2016-17 Best Hospital rankings published by U.S. News & World Report. To find an orthopaedic surgeon affiliated with Princeton HealthCare System, go to www.princetonhcs.org or call 888-742-7496.
cans receive total joint replacement surgery each year, according to the National Institutes of Health. Hip and knee replacements are the most commonly performed joint replacements, but replacement surgery can be performed on other joints as well including the shoulder, ankle, wrist and elbow. During total joint replacement, the surface of the joint — where cartilage has eroded away and bone meets bone — is replaced with an implant to allow smooth movement. The vast majority of patients undergoing contemporary joint replacement achieve excellent results and are able to return to an improved and robust lifestyle. However, joint replacement surgery is a major surgery. Although advances in technology and medical care have made the procedure safe and effective, there are risks, including blood clots and infections. You can help reduce your risk for many of these complications by: • Losing weight, if you are overweight • Controlling other co-existing medical conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure • Not smoking •Limiting or eliminating the use of alcohol •Maintaining a healthy diet •Practicing good hand washing techniques • Performing your exercises as directed by your physical therapist • Most patients can expect to

More than 50 million American adults, or 1 in 5 people over age 18, have some form of arthritis, according to the Arthritis Foundation. And by the year 2040 that number is expected to rise to 78 million. Though a chronic and progressive disease, arthritis often can be managed through a variety of treatment approaches ranging from lifestyle changes and medications to joint replacement surgery. At the Jim Craigie Center for Joint Replacement at University Medical Center of Princeton, board-certified orthopaedic surgeons along with specially trained nurses and physical therapists offer patients suffering from arthritis the latest techniques in joint replacement surgery and recovery.

Princeton Day School students to perform at Edinburgh Fringe In August, students and faculty from Princeton Day School will return to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to perform Qui Nguyen’s “She Kills Monsters,” a contemporary play set in the pre-internet ‘90s and filled with physicality and dramatic combat scenes. The PDS production will be the first licensed production of “She Kills Monsters,” professional or amateur, to be performed in the United Kingdom. Performances will take place Aug. 5-7 and Aug. 9. “To bring the production to
life, our performers spent many rehearsal hours working with stage combat choreographers and movement specialists in an effort to bring over a dozen epic battles and sequences to the stage,” said Stan Cahill, who’s directing the show. The female characters revel in Geek Culture and battle a “giant gelatinous cube,” a “beholder,” and a five-headed dragon called The Tiamat, as well as many others, according to Mr. Cahill. “It is also a hilarious script, and the play’s theatricality and physicality is
only part of its allure,” he said. “She Kills Monsters” explores themes of acceptance, sexuality and female strength, all set against a 90’s era soundtrack. The students have been working on the production for months, and it was performed at the Spring Performing Arts Festival on campus in May. The Edinburgh Festival Fringe takes place each year in August in Edinburgh, Scotland. It’s an open-access performance art festival. Last year’s festival showcased 3,269 shows in nearly 300 venues.
Open space group receives grant Friends of Princeton Open Space has been awarded a $1,400 Franklin Parker Excellence Grant to support outdoor education programs led by Cast members of Princeton Day School’s production of “She Kills Monsters” by Qui FOPOS. Nguyen include (from left): Danielle Hirsch of Newtown, Pennsylvania; Hope AmmiThe funds will be used to don of Princeton; Liv Sheridan of Lawrenceville; Emily Trendof Pennington and Nate purchase equipment such as microscopes, insect nets and water Jones of Princeton.

quality-testing kits to study plants and animals in Princeton parks and open spaces, and to teach children from local schools and summer camps the importance and wonder of the natural world.

They also teach basic outdoor firstaid. FOPOS hopes to partner with many other school and
children’s groups to continue its environmental education work with the new equipment. The grant is the third award received by FOPOS under the Franklin Parker program, which is administered by the New Jersey Conservation Foundation. Previous grants were used for projects in the 400-acre Mountain Lakes Open Space Area that surrounds FOPOS headquarters at Mountain Lakes House, and included planting native trees, shrubs and wildflowers, constructing deer exclosures to protect plants, and removing invasive species.

“2016 FIVE STAR REAL ESTATE AGENT in New Jersey”
CRS, e-PRO, ASP, SRS, Sales Associate, Realtor Office: 609-924-1600
Here I am with my family. Jonathan, Abigail, Laurel, and my husband Tom.
Cell: 908-391-8396 | Email: donnamurray@comcast.net | www.donnamurrayrealestate.com
Q
. Tell us about yourself. A. I grew up in a small town called Silver Creek, which is in the western section of Chautauqua County, NY, an hour past Buffalo on Lake Erie. I’m still a diehard fan of the Buffalo Bills. I then worked as a flight attendant for American Airlines for 18 years, traveling the world, before going into Real Estate.
Q
. Tell us about your family. A. My husband Tom works for American Airlines as a 777 Captain Check Airman. He recently had the honor of serving as one of the four captains who flew Pope Francis during his U.S. visit. We have three children, who attended St. Paul’s School in Princeton and Notre Dame High School (’09, ’11, ’13) in Lawrenceville. Jonathan graduated Rutgers Engineering program and works for TD Securities, Abigail is a grad student at Rider going for a Masters in Clinical Mental Health, and Laurel is graduating Seton Hall in May 2017 and continuing there in the fall for grad school.
Q
. What do you like to do for fun? A. I love taking our Cavalier King Charles dogs, Shamrock and Sebastian, for walks on the many
253 Nassau Street Princeton, NJ 08540 609-924-1600
nature trails in the area. I also love to entertain and enjoy volunteering in the community. Most importantly, I cherish when my family of five can coordinate our busy schedules to spend some quality time together.
Q
. What do you see in the future for Real Estate? A. Real Estate is continuing to change quickly with the times. More listings will have interactive floorplans, 3D virtual tours, aerial drone pictures, etc., and the industry will continue to find new innovations for enticing buyers. Buyers search online, wanting to be equipped with as much information as possible before choosing to visit a home, and I anticipate that trend continuing with the aid of technology.
Q
. To what do you attribute your success in Real Estate over the past 20 years? A. I am patient with my clients and enjoy educating them on real estate in our area. I do my best to treat each client and property with the same care. I don’t believe in cutting corners when it comes to providing service or marketing a home as I would my own, no matter the size of the home or the price point. My motto is “From starter to stately homes, and everything in between.” I also maintain my knowledge of the ever-changing inventory, have excellent negotiating skills, and stay up to date on industry technology. Here are my two dogs, Shamrock and Sebastian, playing in our backyard.
