Y Academy programs offer options for academic support, child care

hen local school district administrators announced they would start the 2020-21 school year with a blend of in-person and remote learning for students, working parents like Dr. John Vaclavik and his wife, Barbara, of Fair Haven were worried. They were trying to figure out how they could balance the new hybrid learning model for their four children in grade school and continue with their professional careers. As the COVID-19 pandemic struck during the spring, they juggled their schedules to help their children navigate the new normal of Zoom classes and online learning after schools were closed and youngsters had to spend the rest of the 2019-20 academic year learning at home, according to a press release. “I would sit in my car and take calls while the kids played in the front yard,” said Barbara, a licensed clinical social worker for the Visiting Nurse Association. “I did my best to help them with their online schoolwork, which was new to them and me, and I worked long hours to stay connected with my clients.” Dr. Vaclavik, an OB-GYN, shifted his office hours to help with the children’s virtual learning and to make it all work for the family. The Vaclaviks were relieved when they heard the Red Bank Family YMCA was offering a new program this fall where their children could spend time on the days when they were not physically in school, according to the press release. “There were so many times when the Y has been there for me and my family,” said Barbara Vaclavik, who is a longtime Y member. “This was a lifesaver for us because we needed help for the children with remote learning and a safe place for them to go.” The three younger Vaclavik children attend the Y Academy in Red Bank three days a week from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. The oldest, a sixth-grader, stays at home with supervision from a babysitter, who also helps all the children when the school day ends. Coincidentally, the Vaclaviks originally met their sitter at the YMCA Child Watch room.

While their parents work, the Vaclavik children, Juliana, John and Victoria, log in to their remote classes at the new Y Academy at the Red Bank Family YMCA.

“Our kids are happy going to the Y and after they finish their remote schoolwork with the help of YMCA staff, they can enjoy lots of supervised activities,” Mrs. Vaclavik said. The YMCA of Greater Monmouth County created its new Y Academy program this year to help support local families and schools with evolving needs in response to the coronavirus pandemic, according to the press release. “One of our main goals was to provide convenient, flexible and safe child care options, and academic support for working parents in our community,” President and CEO Laurie Goganzer was quoted as saying in the press release. The Y Academy is now available at five YMCA facilities in the region: the Free-

hold Family YMCA, the Freehold Borough YMCA Community Center, the Old Bridge Family YMCA, the YMCA Children’s Achievement Center in Matawan and the Red Bank Family YMCA. In Red Bank, there are more than 60 children enrolled in the Y Academy. Children attend two or three days a week for a full day or a half-day. The children log in to their virtual classes from a personal device and receive help with schoolwork from YMCA staff and volunteers, according to the press release. The Y offers non-contact activities like yoga and STEAM challenges (science, technology, engineering, arts and math), and the children get to spend time outdoors. They also take part in mindfulness activities.

The Y is following Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and local health department guidelines during the pandemic, said Stacey Lastella, vice president of Child Achievement. Children and staff members wear masks, health screenings take place at drop-off, and children and parents are temperature checked, she noted. In addition to the Y Academy, the Y provides before- and after-school care in 15 Monmouth County school districts, and full-day kindergarten and full-time child care in Freehold and Matawan to support local families. Sliding scale financial assistance is available for all programs based on need,

Tinton Falls officials award contract for park By MATTHEW SOCKOL Staff Writer

TINTON FALLS – The Tinton Falls Borough Council has awarded a contract to a Freehold Township company that will develop an recreational facility in the municipality. During a recent meeting, council members awarded the $1.15 million contract to Shore Top Construction for the development of Traditions Park between Wardell and Shafto roads, near the Foxchase residential development. Borough Engineer Thomas Neff of T&M Associates recommended that the contract be awarded to Shore Top Construction, according to a resolution. According to a report from Neff, five bids were received for the contract. In addition to Shore Top Construction, Precise Construction bid $1.16 million for the job, Your Way Construction bid $1.48 million, James R. Ientile bid $1.52 million, and Seacoast Construction bid $1.88 million. Shore Top Construction was awarded the contract as the lowest bidder. Neff estimated the project would cost $1.29 million, according to his report, making Shore Top Construction one of the

Council members also passed a resolution authorizing a contract with T&M Associates to provide engineering services related to the development of Traditions Park.

‘Joker’ turns from comedy to horror, writing latest thriller from home By JENNIFER AMATO Managing Editor

t may not be impossible to spot one of your favorite Tenderloins in the greater Princeton area. James S. “Murr” Murray, one of the stars of “Impractical Jokers” and “The Misery Index” on truTV, moved to Princeton last fall with his fiancee. “[We’re] absolutely loving it,” Murr said. “My fiancée and I are huge fans of Witherspoon Grill. If it were up to us, we would be there every night. “Having lived in New York City my entire life, it’s been wonderful to get out, finally breathe fresh air, and hike and kayak in the area. “Staten Island was a great place to grow up – and that’s where I met my fellow Impractical Jokers – but Princeton is a great place to create our new life together and one day raise kids together.” Although Murr is best known for his comedic acts and stunts on the popular truTV practical joke show, he said he got his degree in writing from Georgetown University and always dreamed of becoming an author one day. “The success of ‘Impractical Jokers’ finally gave me the chance to start my alternate career as a novelist. Writing and improvisation are equally difficult, surprising and rewarding. But both represent my personality equally well. It’s all about affecting people in a fun, positive way through creativity of all kinds,” he said. Murr said he grew up reading and watching thrillers, “so it was kind of a natural progression for my writing to spring from that early interest.” He said he enjoys “The Meg” by Steve Alten, “The Andromeda Strain” by Michael Crichton, and is a personal fan of R.L. Stine and Brad Meltzer. They always say, “Write what you know” Murr said about delving into a career in horror writing. His newest thriller, “Don’t Move,” was released on Oct. 20 – after being written from his home in Princeton. He also recorded the audiobook from there.

Megan Forrester has barely survived the unthinkable. Six months ago, she witnessed a horrific accident that killed her husband and son, and lives with the guilt of knowing she could have done more to save them. Now, Megan hopes to mend the pieces of her broken spirit by attending a local church group’s annual camping trip. But the church group members — riddled with dark secrets of their own — make a catastrophic navigational mistake, leaving them stranded in an untouched canyon in the West Virginian national forest. Isolated from any chance of help or rescue, Megan and the others quickly realize why this side of the canyon has never been surveyed by mankind: it’s home to a terrifying prehistoric arachnid that patiently stalks its prey through even the slightest movement or vibration in the forest. And it’s desperate for a meal. Grief-stricken and haunted by her tragic loss, Megan now faces her ultimate test of endurance. Can she outwit a bloodthirsty creature hellbent on ensuring that no one gets out alive? When a single wrong turn can mean

James “Murr” Murray PHOTO COURTESY OF WUNDERKIND PR

death, she only has one option: DON’T MOVE. “I’m lucky enough to work with a wonderfully charming and British co-author named Darren Wearmouth. We also happen to be very close friends so we’re constantly calling each other to talk about our favorite scary movies or whatever we’ve watched that week,” Murr said. “Both of our imaginations can run pretty wild, so we’ll start kicking around a few ideas. ‘Don’t Move’ was born out of one of those. It took us three months to write the entire book, which is a testament to just how well we work together. “Our earlier series, the ‘Awakened’ trilogy, is a much larger world of characters and combines hordes of bloodthirsty monsters and evil international conspiracies. ‘Don’t Move’ is one contained story. It’s much more like a classic, old school 1980s

slasher movie. It’s all action and tension. “And coming next year is another thriller – written right here in Princeton as well – called ‘The Stowaway,’ ” Murr said. His advice for anyone pursuing a career in writing or publishing, or comedy or acting, starts with: Never quit. “When the guys and I were first starting out, trying to get the show off the ground, the first network executive we met with said we weren’t ready for TV. “The next executive we met with told us were too old for TV, meaning we must have missed that sweet spot when we were absolutely perfect for TV. “Ten years later, we’re still going. The point is, don’t let anyone else limit or define your success. Always keep doing the things you love and one day, it will pay off,” Murr said. Through the challenge that is the COVID-19 pandemic, Murr said he is trying to cope as best as possible. “Well, just like everyone else, it’s been tough adjusting to this new world. We’ve found some comfort in raising money for charities and frontline workers who are out there keeping people healthy. Melyssa and I are lucky that we’ve had all this extra time for planning our wedding! “As for the Jokers, we’ve been filming a new TV show from home called ‘Impractical Jokers: Dinner Party.’ And we finally went back to work filming ‘Impractical Jokers’ as well. Thankfully, because I missed my friends dearly,” he said. Murray is a writer, executive producer and actor, best known as “Murr” on the hit television show Impractical Jokers along with his comedy troupe, The Tenderloins. He has worked as the senior vice president of development for NorthSouth Productions for over a decade and is the owner of Impractical Productions, LLC. He recently starred in “Impractical Jokers: The Movie,” and also appears alongside the rest of The Tenderloins, and Jameela Jamil, in the television series “The Misery Index” on TBS.

Early Breast Cancer Diagnosis Saves Lives By Rachel P. Dultz, M.D., F.A.C.S. During their lifetime, 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer, according to the American Cancer Society, and 1 in 39 will die from the disease. However, most women can survive breast cancer if it is found and treated early. In fact, there are more than 3.5 million breast cancer survivors in the United States today, according to the American Cancer Society. Getting regular screening tests is the most reliable way to find breast cancer early. Non-urgent care at the Penn Medicine Princeton Medical Center Breast Health

Center was temporarily postponed several months ago due to COVID-19. Routine screenings and diagnostic mammograms have resumed, with extensive protocols in place to help ensure patient safety at this time. Understanding the Risks Although many women who develop breast cancer have no risk factors, there are certain factors that increase your chances of developing the disease. Further, incidents of breast cancer increase with age. Other risk factors include: â&#x20AC;˘ A history of breast conditions or prior breast cancer diagnosis â&#x20AC;˘ A family history of breast cancer, par-

ticularly at a young age â&#x20AC;˘ Beginning menstruation at an early age â&#x20AC;˘ Entering menopause at a later age â&#x20AC;˘ Having a child late in life or never being pregnant â&#x20AC;˘ Undergoing post-menopausal hormone therapy Screening Recommendations When women should begin regular mammograms and how often they should have them is a complex issue. Recommendations for how early mammograms should begin and how frequently you should be screened depend on your personal and family history as well as your age.

The American College of Radiology, for one, recommends a screening mammography every year for women who are at average risk for breast cancer beginning at age 40. In general, it is thought that screening should continue annually as long as a woman is in good health, regardless of age. It is important, however, to talk with your doctor about screening and what is appropriate for you. For screening purposes, a woman is considered to be at average risk if she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a personal history of breast cancer, a strong family history of breast cancer, or a genetic mutation known to

Treatment for breast cancer varies from person to person and is increasingly more personalized and tailored to the specific cancer’s unique biological profile. No two cancers are treated the same. Some may require surgery, while others may be treated with targeted chemotherapy or radiation. Understanding the options — as well as risks and benefits — is a critical step in the treatment process.

n a great show of support during the challenging COVID-19 health crisis, community members came together on Oct. 6 to raise more than $50,000 that will enable more young girls to thrive with Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore. More than 80 golfers and supporters gathered at the Rumson Country Club for the annual Girl Scout Golf Classic charity event, presented by Investors Bank and OceanFirst Bank, according to a press release. Originally scheduled for June, the golf tournament was postponed due to the pandemic. But with safety measures in place, golfers enjoyed a round of golf, followed by an open air dinner reception to raise support for the area’s largest nonprofit organization devoted to girls, according to the press release. Forty local businesses and individuals also supported the event as sponsors, reflecting the “caring spirit” of the local community, Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore CEO Eileen Higgins said. “It has been a difficult year for Girl Scouts and our entire community,” Higgins said. “We could not be more thankful for the generosity of our sponsors and golfers. Their support will make it possible

for more girls from all backgrounds to develop lifelong leadership skills through Girl Scouting.” Higgins said proceeds from the event will fund membership fees for girls whose families may be experiencing financial difficulties. Support will also underwrite development of new virtual and in-person leadership programs and activities to keep nearly 10,000 girls connected in the pandemic. “Now more than ever, Girl Scouts need time together in safe environments to strengthen their overall well-being and to be supported in achieving their leadership goals,” Higgins said. Serving as event co-chairs were Nina Anuario, senior vice president at OceanFirst Bank and first vice chair of the Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore Board of Directors, and Victoria Magliacane, senior vice president at Investors Bank. Families interested in learning more about Girl Scout membership, financial assistance or programs may visit www.GSFun.org or call 800-785-2090. Girl Scouts of the Jersey Shore serves nearly 10,000 girls between the ages of 5 and 18 in Monmouth and Ocean counties, according to the press release.

Make-A-Wish beneficiary makes donation to children’s hospital

ackensack Meridian Children’s Health’s K. Hovnanian Children’s Hospital at Jersey Shore University Medical Center, Neptune, received a PlayStation game console and large screen HD television from Make-A-Wish New Jersey beneficiary Niko Picchierri and his family; mom and dad Diane and Paul, and sister Taylor, of Howell. Niko is battling Hodgkin’s lymphoma and recently went back into active chemotherapy treatment for the second time at the children’s hospital, according to a press re-

lease from the medical center. His wish was for an online shopping spree; he wanted to get electronics of his own, including a brand new PlayStation, a new Mac laptop and a new iPhone. However, Niko knew he also wanted to take the opportunity to give something back to the hospital that took care of him during treatments, according to the press release. “I am positive our pediatric patients will love the new game console and large screen TV,” said Annamarie Cutroneo, vice president, Operations and Support

What an extraordinary young man to think of others as part of his wish,” she said. Niko and his family often discussed how impactful additional items would be for children in active treatment, so Niko made sure to dedicate some of his wish funds to purchase the items, which will be installed at the children’s hospital for its pediatric patients, according to the press release. “Moments like this remind us of not only how resilient and courageous our wish kids are, but also how selfless they are, too,” Make-A-Wish New Jersey President and CEO Tom Weatherall said. “Niko has had to face the devastating realities of a life-threatening medical

condition and he is now bravely facing it again. Niko chose to set aside a part of his wish to give to other kids who might need a smile. Acts of kindness like Niko’s inspire us and the community daily. “In September our organization surpassed a global milestone – 500,000 wishes granted since our mission began in 1980. These wish children are most often referred to us by their medical teams. “How grateful we are to partners like K. Hovnanian Children’s Hospital for the care they give to kids like Niko and for referring their patients to our mission. “While wishes involving travel have been postponed for the health and safety of our wish families, wishes like Niko’s are being granted every day across the country and around the world. Wishes are not cancelled. We will continue to provide hope to kids when they need it most,” Weatherall said.

ON THE ROAD PETER PERROTTA

2020 Corvette Stingray Convertible

n 1953, the engineers and designers at Chevrolet introduced to the world the first generation Corvette – a two seat convertible sports car that was supposed to “wow” the American consumer. Chevrolet produced 300 of this new model, which, at that time sold for a whopping $3,498. Reviews of the new American sports car were mixed and sales fell far short of expectations. The Corvette program was nearly canceled. Well, a funny Peter Perrotta thing happened on the way to becoming, arguably, the greatest American iconic automobile in history. The designers and engineers at Chevrolet persisted and kept tinkering with what they knew would eventually catch on to be a popular sports car. They were right! Now, a full 67 years later, Chevrolet is still “wowing” the world with its Corvette Stingray. Not satisfied with resting on its laurels, for what has been a great American success story, Chevrolet has stood the American motoring public literally on its head with the eighth generation Corvette Stingray – the 2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Convertible. What is different about this all-new, totally redesigned – from the ground up – Corvette? Well, quite frankly, folks, everything. I recently spent a full week behind the wheel of this new Corvette – a stunning Rapid Blue with a Sky Cool Gray interior and a hard-top convertible that goes down with a simple push of a button. First off, this new Corvette doesn’t look anything like your grandfather’s Corvette. It’s totally redesigned look – very aggressive, sporty and sculpted – lends itself more to that of the Italian Lamborghini than the Vette we have been used to seeing (see photo). If public reaction and head turning ability could be rated, I would have to give this new Corvette a solid 10 on a scale of 1 to 10. I must honestly say, that in all my years of road testing cars for review, I have never seen a car turn as many heads as this one. Strangers would take pictures of it in parking lots. Fellow motorists would snap cell

2020 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray

phone shots of it as you passed them by. And, it was hard to go to the local Starbucks or supermarket without someone stopping me and wanting to talk about it. Just a simply amazing reaction from the general motoring public. But, it’s not just the exterior design that’s groundbreaking with this new Corvette, there is much more packed inside. The most obvious groundbreaking new design with this 2020 Corvette, is that it is Chevrolet’s first ever production mid-engine Corvette. For 67 years prior, all Corvettes were produced as front engine, rear wheel drive roadsters. Not this one. “Corvette has always represented the pinnacle of innovation and boundary pushing at GM,” says GM president, Mark Reuss. “The traditional front-engine vehicle reached its limits of performance, necessitating the new layout. In terms of comfort and fun, it still looks and feels like a Corvette, but drives better than any vehicle in Corvette history,” he adds. I would have to agree. Most front engine, rear wheel drive roadsters I have driven, are no fun to drive in the rain or snow. Most of the time, you end up fishtailing all over the place. Not a very secure feeling. Not with this new mid-engine Corvette. The second day I had this tester, I ven-

tured to take it out in a driving rain storm on Route 295. The mid-engine design worked extremely well. I selected the “weather” mode on the driving style selector and securely went 65 to 75 miles per hour in the rain without ever feeling unsafe. The mid-engine design affords this sportster a very equal weight distribution. There are several versions of the new Corvette, model wise. The one I drove was the LT1 convertible that carries a base sticker price of $66,400. With a few options added and a $1,095 destination and delivery charge, my tester carried a bottom line sticker price of $70,880. The added options on my tester included: $1,295 for carbon flash painted nacelles and body color convertible top; $1,195 for the performance exhaust; $500 for the Rapid Blue exterior paint job and $395 for the blue seat belts. The editors at Car and Driver noted as high points of the new Vette: “Supercar performance at an amazing price, comfortable on the road and incredible on the track, much improved interior quality.” Powering this new Corvette is the standard 6.2 liter, V-8 engine that puts out an impressive 490 horsepower and 470 pound feet of torque. This car is plenty fast, folks. If you put it in the “track” mode it is incredibly fast.

In fact, the local police loved just tailing me just to see if I was going to misbehave in this beast. Chevrolet officials claim that if you get the new Corvette equipped with the Z51 performance package, it then becomes the fastest Corvette in history – able to get from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 2.8 seconds. My overall driving impression after one week behind the wheel of this new Vette, is quite simply, “Wow!” – a totally exhilarating experience to drive one of these automotive wonders. If you are itching to buy or lease one of these new Corvettes, it may not be as easy as you think. In some areas, there is as much as a one-year waiting list. In fact, some dealers are reported to be charging a market adjusted $10,000 to $20,000 over sticker premium on the car. The EPA fuel consumption ratings on this Corvette give it an average of 19 miles per gallon – with 27 mpg on the highway and 15 in city driving. The EPA estimates that the annual average fuel cost for driving this Corvette would be $5,250 as it uses about 5.3 gallons of fuel per every 100 miles driven.

PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN

(Never known to fail). O most Beautiful Flower of Mt. Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God. Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. Oh Star of the Sea, help me, and show me herein You are my Mother. Oh Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech You from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity (make request). There are none that can withstand Your power. O Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee (3 times). Holy Mary, I place this cause in your hands (3 times). Say this prayer for three consecutive days. You must publish it, and it will be granted to You.

M.S.
