Grant allows Lawrence Township to continue assessment of former Pit Stop service station By Lea Kahn Staff Writer

With a $239,524 state grant in hand, Lawrence Township officials are set to take the next step in the continuing saga of the former Pit Stop service station on Lawrence Road, between Altamawr and Merline avenues. Lawrence Township officials learned July 21 that the the township’s grant application to the New Jersey Economic Development Administration’s Hazardous Discharge Site Remediation Municipal Grant program had been approved. The grant will allow township officials to continue with the environmental assessment of the property at 1175 Lawrence Road, including demolishing the vacant, boarded-up building so the soil underneath it may be studied for possible contamination. “We do have Langan Engineering and Environmental Services, our environmental company, at the ready. We hope to have this work started in the next couple of months,” Municipal Manager Kevin Nerwinski said. The extent of the contamination underneath the building is unknown, Nerwinski said. Once the consultant completes the investigation and provides a cost estimate to remedy the site, the township will use that information as the basis for grant funding from the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection to remediate the site, he said. “The end game for the township is to get the property cleaned up through grant funding, acquire title to the property, and then create a passive park area for the community to enjoy and be proud of,” Nerwinski said. The property at 1175 Lawrence Road is owned by a defunct limited

Lawrence High School honors Class of 2020

By Lea Kahn Staff Writer

Deprived of their graduation celebration by COVID-19, Lawrence High School’s Class of 2020 gathered together – in person – for a scaled down graduation event July 29 at the Lawrence High School football field. About 165 members of the Class of 2020 attended the ceremony, school district officials said. After lining up outside the Commons, they walked across campus to the football field. Lawrence High School held a virtual graduation ceremony June 19. Since Gov. Phil Murphy modified the executive order that limits the number of persons who may gather, school district officials decided to hold a smaller version of the graduation ceremony. “We are not having all of the speeches again, since we already presented them at the virtual ceremony. This will be more of an opportunity for the students to gather safely one last time as a group,” said Lawrence High School Principal David Adam. Valedictorian Ian Wang and Salutatorian Tucker Simpson wished their classmates well as they move on in life. Senior Class President Nabil Hachicha presented the class gift. Then, each senior was called by name to walk across the stage. The June 19 virtual graduation ceremony, which was shown on the high school’s website, featured

photos of each graduating senior. Adam offered some parting words to the soon-to-be graduates, as did Superintendent of Schools Ross Kasun and school board president Kevin Van Hise, who is also a Lawrence High School graduate. As a surprise, several notable Lawrence High School graduates appeared in the video to offer congratulations to the Class of 2020 – from retired professional football players Brett Brackett and Todd Brunner, to Toronto Blue Jays Coach John Schneider. Comedian, writer, producer and activist Jon Stewart – who was known as Jonathan Leibowitz when he graduated from Lawrence High School – also offered congratulations. Kim Hatchett, executive director of Morgan Stanley, and playwright, author and producer Ifa Bayeza of the Class of 1968 – the first graduating class at Lawrence High School – also offered congratulations to the newest crop of alumni. In the weeks leading up to graduation, seniors were featured in a Senior Spotlight slideshow on the Lawrence High School website, and the senior awards ceremony and athletic awards ceremony also were posted on the website. Each senior received a “Proud of Our Senior” lawn sign, and Project Graduation raffled off prizes that ranged from gift cards to flat-screen television sets. The high school’s mascot, Larry the Cardinal, toured the town to visit the seniors.

They are not motivated to sell it because is about $2 million in liens against it by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection for past remediation work, and by Lawrence Township for unpaid property taxes, Nerwinski said. The family was approached by the township several years ago, and the two sides reached an agreement that led to the township applying for the grant that was approved earlier this month, Nerwinski said. There is still much work to be done, he said. The former Pit Stop service station has a long history, dating back more than two decades when it was originally known as the Lawrence

Road Service Center. It later became known as the Pit Stop. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection became involved in the late 1990s after its environmental spill line was notified three times between 1997 and 1998 of discharges that occurred at the site. The owner was ordered to stop selling gasoline, but the Pit Stop continued operating as a service station until 2003. After some neighborhood residents complained of odors in their drinking water – which came from private wells – in 2003, the Lawrence Township Health Department sampled the wells and discovered

that five of the 13 wells were contaminated. The affected properties were hooked up to city water. Later in 2003, the property owner was ordered to remove seven underground storage tanks. The property went into foreclosure and was purchased by 1175 Lawrence Road LLC in 2005. The new owner removed the underground storage tanks and 2,000 tons of petroleumcontaminated soil in 2006. Subsequently, a multi-phase remediate investigation of the site was launched in 2010 by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection to determine the nature and extent of the contamination.

WHITE GUMS

When gums turn white, it may signify an unhealthy condition that warrants examination by the dentist. Among the possible causes of white gums are canker sores, which are potentially painful lesions that develop in the mouth and on the gums. They are typically round or oval with a pale center and a red border. They do not change the color of the gums in the entire mouth. Another possible cause is anemia, which occurs when the body lacks healthy red blood cells, causing the skin and gums to look white. Leukoplakia, another condition that can result in white gums, causes white patches to appear. Usually harmless, patches occurring alongside red lesions are more likely to be cancerous or precancerous.

We have a sincere interest in our patients’ complete health and stay up to date on the latest oral health care issues. If you are looking for just such a dentist, we invite you to call our office at 609-924-8300 for an appointment. All oral health problems are dealt with efficiently, effectively, and compassionately. And any medical problems noticed during a dental exam will be discussed with your other health care providers if you so choose.

Gregory, left to right, Michael and Ryan Werthmuller spend time with residents of the Greenwood House.

This year, Greenwood House Senior Healthcare in Ewing Township was blessed with the arrival of an amazing group of young men and brothers, their family consisting of five brothers with two set of twins from Jackson. Chris Werthmuller was the first to join the activities department, then came Ryan and soon after Michael and Gregory. Ryan recently graduated from The College of New Jersey with his psychology degree, and will pursue his masters in social work at Rutgers University. Michael is attending The College of New Jersey majoring in finance and Gregory is attending Rowan University through the ROTC program. All three bound for future success. The brothers all between the ages of 19 and 23, first thought, “Could I build a relationship and relate to older people?” but soon enough they found themselves looking forward to spending quality time with our residents, who very quickly became their friends. They do whatever it takes to assist with the enrichment programs at Greenwood House especially during the fight against COVID-19 and the very limited and restricted activities

allowable for the residents. They don’t mind painting nails, listening to stories about the residents’ childhood and family, playing word games with Estelle, talking sports with Robert, and now busy arranging and setting up FaceTime, Zoom calls and family visits with social workers. From learning grief and now understanding to appreciate their youth, all three agree this experience has humbled them. They shared one of the residents, Lucy, always compliments Greg’s curly hair and loves his shoes, and said if she was younger she’d ask him out on a date. Ryan and Greg are heading back to college. Michael will potentially continue with Greenwood House part time, and Chris could be rejoining.

Golf Rehab Can Help You Get Game Back Up to Par

ith golf generally considered a safe and healthy outdoor activity during the COVID-19 pandemic, an increasing number of people have taken to

the course. According to the National Golf Foundation, play was up more than 6% nationally – the equivalent of about 2.4 million more rounds than in May 2019. However, hitting a golf ball with distance and accuracy isn’t as easy as the pros make it look. Not to mention that if you have an injury or are in pain, it can really affect your game. Whether you have a new injury, balance issues or a chronic condition such as back pain, the Golf Rehabilitation program at Princeton Rehabilitation can help you recover so that you can get back into the swing of the things. A Complex Sequence of Movements Swinging a golf club requires a complex sequence of movements that involve your entire body. Different parts – from your feet to your head – have to move in specific ways for you to achieve the maximum club head speed and ball distance. And they have to move smoothly through a full range of motion. Pain or other limitations because of injury or surgery, such as joint replacement, can restrict your movement and range of motion and throw off your swing. Moreover, though golf is a low-impact sport, injuries are not uncommon. In fact, more than 131,000 people were treated in hospital emergency rooms, doctors offices and clinics for golfrelated injuries in 2015, according to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS). Golf-Related Injuries Low back pain is one of the most common complaints among golfers, and is often caused by poor swing. The rotational stresses of a golf swing can place considerable pressure on the spine and muscles. Additionally, poor flexibility and poor muscle strength can cause minor strains that over time can lead to serious injuries. Other common golf-related injuries include:

THE STATE WE’RE IN

• Golfer’s elbow. Golfer’s elbow is an inflammation of the tendons that attach your forearm muscles to the inside of the bone at your elbow. These muscles and tendons can become damaged from overuse, leading to pain and tenderness. • Rotator cuff tendonitis. Repetitive motion can cause the rotator cuff tendons to become irritated or damaged, leading to pain, stiffness, and limited movement. • Wrist tendonitis or sprains. Wrist tendonitis typically occurs in the leading hand and will cause pain, tenderness and swelling. • Plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis is characterized by heel or foot pain caused by the weakening of the plantar fascia, the strong band of tissue that supports the arch of your foot. Over-extension (twisting the feet inward too much) and ill-fitting golf shoes are the main culprits. To prevent injury: • Maintain proper posture. Avoid hunching over the ball, which may contribute to back and neck strain. Stand with your spine straight and your hips tilted forward. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart and rotated slightly outward. Your knees should be slightly bent. • Don’t overswing. Swinging the club too hard or too fast may stress your joints. • Warm up. Adopt a specific routine of stretching and flexibility exercises before each round. Hit some balls before a game, starting with the wedge and gradually working up to the driver. • Maintain a good base of physical fitness. Stronger and more flexible muscles are less injury prone. Your exercise program should include stretching and strength training as well as regular aerobic activity to keep up your endurance for the course. • Lift and carry clubs carefully. When lifting your bag, use proper lifting technique. Keep your back straight and use the strength of your legs to lift. • Choose proper footwear. Wear well-fitting golf shoes that have short cleats. Short cleats can help prevent strain on you knees and ankles.

Optimal Performance Whether you have suffered a golf-related or other type of injury, are recovering from surgery or dealing with chronic pain, the Golf Rehabilitation program at Princeton Rehabilitation can help you get back on par and perform at your optimal level. The program is open to men and women of all ages and skill levels, and is staffed by specially trained golf rehabilitation therapists certified by the Titleist Performance Institute. Patients–with a prescription from their doctor–receive a personalized evaluation that includes: • An assessment using leading edge 3D computerized biofeedback technology that measures body motion to help correct poor technique, promote a more efficient swing, and prevent injury. • A comprehensive physical therapy examination. • An overall strength and flexibility assessment. Customized treatment plans address all areas that may impact a golfer’s game and aim to: • Optimize motion and decrease stress on the body during the swing and follow-through. • Encourage proper technique and focus on injury prevention. • Reduce pain during or after playing. Princeton Rehabilitation is currently treating patients inperson and via telehealth. Every precaution is being taken to ensure the safety of patients and staff.

Missing the Olympics? Try the Greenway Games!

he summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan, are on hold due to the pandemic, just like hundreds of other athletic events ranging from local 5K races and biking events to the New York City Marathon. If you are missing the action and want to participate in a large-scale athletic event while supporting a good cause, why not join the Greenway Games from Aug. 1 through Aug. 9? The Greenway Games are a choose-your-own-challenge event to raise funds and awareness for the East Coast Greenway, an ambitious 3,000-mile off-road walking, running and bicycling trail envisioned from northern Maine to the Florida Keys. “The Greenway Games are being held during what would have been the second week of the Olympics,” said John Martin, communications manager for the East Coast Greenway Alliance, the nonprofit behind the Greenway. “It’s something we have never tried before, but we have seen such a surge in trail use during the pandemic that we thought it would be fun,” he said. The East Coast Greenway has been dubbed “the urban equivalent of the Appalachian Trail.” It crosses through 15 states, including New Jersey, and 450 cities or towns. The New Jersey section includes the 36-mile Delaware and Raritan Canal tow path, one of the longest off-road stretches. Other Greenway sections in this state we’re in include the Hudson River Waterfront Walkway in Jersey City, the Riverfront Park Trail and Weequahic Park Path in Newark, the Lenape Park Path in Union County, the Nomahegan Park Path in Cranford, the Rahway River Park Path in Rahway, the Middlesex Greenway in Woodbridge and Metuchen, and the Delaware River Heritage Trail. During the pandemic, the alliance has seen record usage up and down the East Coast Greenway as people turn to trails for exercise in the fresh air while socially distancing. Many people routinely use the Greenway for commuting on their bicycle to work. Like many nonprofit organizations, the alliance was forced to cancel in-person fundraisers this year. For example, its planned New York City to Philadelphia bike ride, scheduled for May with some 300 riders, was postponed. So the alliance instead opted for a bunch of individual fundraisers along the Greenway.

Here’s how to join the Greenway Games: • First, design your own event. It could be a 5K run, a 10K bike ride, a family nature hike or a dog walk; or something offbeat like creating a giant hopscotch board, hopping on a pogo stick or doing pushups. One group in North Carolina is planning a steeplechase, a 3,000-meter run with large hurdles and kiddie pool with water hazards, but the alliance is open to more sedentary activities like knitting or baking chocolate chip cookies! • Next, turn your challenge into a fundraiser for the East Coast Greenway Alliance. Set a fundraising goal and invite your friends and family members to pledge and/or participate. • Schedule your event for anytime between Aug. 1-9. There’s even some leeway if that time frame conflicts with your schedule. • Register by going to www.greenway.org/greenwaygames. If you choose the $50 option instead of the free option, you will receive a T-shirt, a one-year membership in the alliance and a chance to win prizes. • Hold your event and post photos and videos on social media using the hashtag #GreenwayGames. You could even set some personal fitness goals to boot.

“We will consider it a success if we just see people out there having fun and learning the benefits of greenways and trails,” Martin said. Right now, a third of the East Coast Greenway – about 1,000 miles – is on protected, traffic-free trails which annually host about 20 million walks, runs and bike rides. The alliance is working to move the other 2,000 miles of the East Coast Greenway off public streets and away from traffic. To get pumped up for the Greenway Games, tune in to an Instagram Live Q&A with runner Kaitlyn Gregg Goodman, a four-time Olympic Trials qualifier, on July 30 at 6 p.m. Goodman founded a nonprofit called Safe on the Road after being injured after jumping out of the way of a distracted driver. To participate in the Q&A, follow East Coast Greenway on Instagram. For more information about the East Coast Greenway Alliance and its projects, go to www.greenway.org/ Michele S.

HomeFront to support students in Mercer County with school supplies By Lea Kahn Staff Writer

Happiness is a backpack full of school supplies, a new outfit and new sneakers for the first day of school – especially for children who are living in shelters or whose parents struggle to make ends meet. That’s why HomeFront hopes to distribute about 1,500 backpacks filled with school supplies and new outfits. The nonprofit group, which is based in Lawrence Township, helps the homeless and the working poor in Mercer County. Every child wants to start the school year with the same fresh, new things that other children have, so what better way to start the new school year than with new clothing and a stuffed backpack, HomeFront officials said. But this year, it is more critical than ever that HomeFront is able to distribute backpacks full of school supplies to the children who need them, the officials said. Its back-to-school drive, which seeks donors, ends Aug. 15. HomeFront’s goal is to sponsor at least 1,500 children – an increase over the 1,350 children who were sponsored

last year. The need in the community has increased with the economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic, said Connie Mercer, the executive director and founder of HomeFront. “We have been distributing triple the amount of food and essentials than we usually do, because of the increase in unemployment tied to COVID-19,” Mercer said. “We know our back-to-school drive faces new challenges this year because the congregations, corporations and organizations who usually get involved this year are now all operating remotely,” she said. That’s why HomeFront is seeking potential donors to fill those backpacks with school supplies, along with new clothing for the children. Individuals, businesses and corporations are invited to become donors. Donors may fill backpacks with school supplies or “adopt” one or more children and provide them with new clothing. It is easy to sponsor a child by calling HomeFront at 609-915-1035, or by email to homefront@homefrontnj. org. Donors who choose to support a child with new clothing will be provid-

ed with the age, gender, clothing and shoe size of the child, plus the school supplies needed. The shopping list includes a new shirt and pants, new underwear, socks and shoes or sneakers. A donor may choose to fill a backpack with school supplies – from the backpack itself to notebooks, a threering binder with paper, folders, pens, colored pencils, erasers, rulers, glue sticks, tape, crayons and safety scissors. A financial contribution to HomeFront’s back-to-school drive is another way to make school a positive experience for a child, Mercer said. There is a special fund that allows children to participate more fully in the school experience. The fund will cover the many small expenses that occur throughout the school year and that are out of reach for many HomeFront parents – the costs for school trips, class pictures, special needs tutors, SAT fees and manuals, and clothing for hard-to-fit children. For more information about the back-to-school drive and how to drop off donations, call HomeFront at 609915-1035 or by email at homefront@ homefrontnj.org.

Celebrating how the Americans with Disabilities Act changed life

E E R F Y R WOR N O I T C E T PRO PART STANDS A

PHOTO COURTESY OF ROBERT STACK

President and CEO of Community Options, Robert Stack, with Elizabeth Dole, U.S. senator, Red Cross CEO and wife of Senator Bob Dole.

Thirty years ago on July 26, President George H. W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act. It was one of the most significant breakthroughs in history for persons with disabilities since President John F. Kennedy publicly admitted that his sister was born with intellectual disabilities creating a presidential committee bearing the same name. Disabilities were never embraced. They were hidden. When President Franklin D. Roosevelt left office in 1945, many of the general public suspected he used a wheelchair, but it was hidden most of the time from their view. Certainly, then and even now celebrities with disabilities like Steven Hawking or Helen Keller’s virtues were extolled by all of us. They were however intellectually gifted. During most of the 20th century, many Americans with intellectual and developmental disabilities (more than 200,000) were relegated to live in large institutions. There are thousands of stories of abuse, mandatory sterilization, segregation and the routine use of cattle prods as aversion therapy. Journalists like Geraldo Rivera exposed unspeakable neglect and abuse in New York’s Willowbrook warehousing – well over 6,000 people. Lawsuits paid for through rock concerts hosted by John and Yoko Lennon, Stevie Wonder and Roberta Flack resulted in a tumultuous sea change resulting in institutional closures. States like New Mexico, Minnesota, Michigan and many of the New England states to this date do not have institutions. Still, there remains well over 50,000 people with disabilities relegated to remain in these horrific institutions. Institutions which have become a catalyst for pandemic exposure and death. President Ronald Reagan was one of the first to push for employment and radically altering Medicaid funding at large institutions for persons with disabilities to live and work in the community. His administration inspired Bush to take his vision to the next level. It was truly a difficult fight. After it was signed, we were hopeful that it would fundamentally create a maelstrom for employment opportunities and better housing options for people with disabilities. We had hoped that this would be the end of large segregated institutions. There was an impact. In 1999 the United States Supreme Court ruled on Omstead to stop segregation for persons with disabilities in large institutions. The court ruled “segregation of persons with disabilities as a form of discrimination.” Civil rights were supported for persons with disabilities -at least on paper. We still seem to have a long way to go

Only PSE&G WorryFree customers enjoy these beneﬁts:

until we even see the finish line. Now, four presidents later, we still have thousands of people with disabilities living in large institutions in New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Mississippi, California and Texas. We do have employers who have become more aware of the ADA. Some have begun to understand reasonable accommodation; they have more of an open mind, but it remains more of an exception to the rule when a person is hired in the private sector. Many persons with disabilities are exploited to do assembly tasks in workshops earning less than 20 cents per hour. Now with the varying degree of lockdowns, it is becoming even more complex. Some are mandated to stay home and receive “video programming” while first line staff take care of them in small group homes. COVID-19 has dramatically increased the value of both the first line staff and in many cases persons with disabilities. Some are essential employees in the grocery stores and other establishments. Statistically however, only 4 out of 10 persons with disabilities have a job. Thirty years ago, the world wide web was inaugurated with www. The applicability and ramifications of remain astounding. No one came close to gauging the long-term effect of this. Frankly, I had much greater hopes for the American with Disabilities Act. I figured by now the institutions warehousing people with disabilities would have been closed much faster. It seems even worse with the fact that more people are dying from COVID and the spread of infections within institutions are greater than those in community-based homes. I also thought that so many more people would have jobs and be far better included in society. I still remain the optimist. We are far better than 30 years ago. I remain grateful to the many presidents who have made such an impact to emancipate persons with disabilities and have visions for them to be employed. Hopefully within this next decade as we push through the pandemic and the election cycle, more Americans with disabilities will live and work in neighborhoods, have relationships and pursue happiness as we all do.

Shin-Yi Lin, Eagleton Institute Fellow

few weeks ago, I had the honor of Zooming into a Rutgers University graduation that featured only four graduates, all accomplished scientists who completed the inaugural year of the Rutgers University Eagleton Institute’s Science and Politics Fellowship Program. These scientists took their research, formulas, and analytical, organizational and communications skills into a whole new laboratory – the state government. The Eagleton Institute of Politics at Rutgers University working with the New Jersey state government developed the Science and Politics Fellowship to place post-doc scientists in executive departments and legislative offices where they can apply their scientific training and expertise to help solve public problems. The concept of using scientists to help government officials develop effective public policy that serves people’s needs, rather than personal political ambitions, sounds to me at this point in time about as monumental as the concept of E=MC2. Although all the graduates seemed phenomenal and way out of my league intellectually (my way of solving intractable problems is to throw more Cheetos at it), I took special notice of one of them – because I had come across her name at different times in the past 20 years. The 42-year-old West Windsor resident Shin-Yi Lin, a microbiologist whose current area of passionate pursuit is maternal health, was a Ph.D. student at Princeton University at the same time as I was working for the University. When Shin-Yi was a postdoctoral research fellow in the Department of Molecular Biology at Rowan UniversitySchool of Osteopathic Medicine, I was doing communications for an association representing New Jersey public universities; it was suggested to me that her research would make an interesting feature story in local media. Most recently, a friend of mine who lives in West Windsor kept talking to me about this West Windsor Town Council candidate ShinYi Lin – “a really brainy scientist who wants to give back to the community.” In the fall of

Shin-Yi Lin, Eagleton Institute Fellow

2019 when Shin-Yi was running for council, she wrote a letter to the editor that advocated for single-use plastics. It was so readable and fact-based that I emailed it to several of my friends and family members. In all of the above roles, Shin-Yi, a second-generation immigrant raised by a “struggling” single mom, never played the role of an isolated scientist tucked away with her petri dishes and test tubes. She always strived to be engaged in her community – no matter where she was working – as an advocate for education, science literacy, racial and economic equality, and feminism. “I strongly believe, that academia and universities need to become more engaged with the general public at large — sharing the value of the research, mentoring, and teaching that happens on our campuses. … I love and have spent a lot of time doing research, but I am driven by the need to contribute to my community,” said the mother of three young children, who may have trouble keeping up with their mom instead of the other way around. The Eagleton Program was a perfect genetic match for her, as she so eloquently stated in her graduation speech. “One of the unique things I’ve brought to this inaugural cohort (of Eagleton Science

and Politics Fellows) is that I am, well, older — I’m a working parent with three young kids. This has actually given me an advantage in my placement this year — working on maternal health policy,” said Shin-Yi, who noted how her prior personal experience (three children born under very different delivery circumstances) and her professional and academic experience made her assignment to maternal health issues “a dream job.” When she started as an Eagleton Fellow, New Jersey had just made maternal health a particular legislative and administration priority. First Lady Tammy Murphy had launched her Nurture NJ campaign to reduce New Jersey’s maternal and infant mortality. Then NJ Legislature then passed a suite of maternal health legislation that encourages reform through Medicaid policy. Shin-Yi joined NJ Medicaid just as the state was in the process of implementing changes that would impact the maternity care for the over 30,000 moms whose births are covered by Medicaid. New Jersey has one of the highest cesarean-section rates in the country, and racial disparities in obstetric care are even more pronounced for Black women. Shin-Yi focused on S-1784, the bill to allow for reimbursement of doula services within NJ Medicaid. Doulas are non-clinical providers who provide support throughout the perinatal period. Evidence shows that doula labor support can reduce C-sections and improve birth outcomes, she said. Her specific task was in the area of implementation of the doula program. NJ was only the third state in the nation to pass and provide funding for this kind of service, but other states ran into roadblocks in the implementa-

tion process. Coming up with an implementation strategy and reimbursement model drew on her talents for collaborating, listening, data collecting, and “translating” research findings. Shin Yi and her fellowship colleagues (see below) have helped raise he Science and Politics Fellows program from birth through its first birthday. She is unsure of her next professional steps, but for certain those steps will lead her to a significant public service role. And if I am lucky, our paths will keep intersecting.

5Help.org partners with EMS task force to raise funds for front line COVID-19 battle New Jersey nonprofit organization 5Help.org, which was created by teenagers Drew and Heather Paglia of Millstone Township to help others by raising funds $5 at a time, has partnered with the New Jersey EMS Task Force to increase donations to the statewide organization on the front line in the battle against COVID-19. As of now, 5Help.org will earmark part of its fundraising efforts for the task force, a nonprofit organization that represents more than 200 career and volunteer EMS providers throughout the state, according to a press release. The EMS providers are trained in various disciplines of emergency medical services to respond to large-scale man-made and natural disasters as well as pre-planned events, according to the press release. “We want to help,” said Drew, 16, who will be a junior at the Lawrenceville School, Lawrenceville. “We know how hard the members of the New Jersey EMS Task Force work to keep us all safe. Money we raise can help purchase personal protective gear to keep them safe and to help local businesses by supplying meals to those working on the front line.” “This is why we created 5Help.org,” said

Heather, 13, who will be an eighth-grader at the Hun School, Princetown. “They are there day and night helping others. Let’s help them.” “Drew and Heather are simply amazing,” said Mike Bascom, president of the New Jersey EMS Task Force. “They noticed a problem, they reacted and they created a system that makes it easy for others to help. “We are proud of them and excited to partner with them in raising funds to help the men and women who are responding to emergencies throughout the state around the clock,” he said. 5Help.org was formed by the Paglia family – Drew, Heather, and mom, Cindy, and dad, Andy – at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic when they saw local businesses struggling near their Monmouth County home, according to the press release. The Paglias knew they needed to help and came up with the idea to ask people to donate $5 – they could also donate more – to be used to purchase meals and gift cards to local restaurants and businesses. In turn, those gift cards were donated to first responders and hospitals to purchase meals. By letting people know they could help with as little as $5 they activated

younger people and have raised more than $25,000, according to the press release. Anyone can donate to 5Help.org via Venmo at @FiveHelp-Team and through a secure link at 5help.org. For more information about 5Help.org, email contact@5help. org The task force was activated in March as part of the state’s effort to fight the COVID-19 pandemic. Working with local, state and national health, law enforcement and Office of Emergency Management teams, members have provided administrative and logistics support at mobile COVID-19 testing sites, deployed Western Shelter tent facilities at 20 hospitals, placed oxygen generators at various facilities, and coordinated the deployment of its medical ambulance

bus fleet to transport COVID-19 positive patients from long-term care facilities and hospitals, according to the press release. The team is also staffing regional temporary morgue sites, the deployment of outof-state Federal Emergency Management Agency ambulance teams, working to obtain and distribute personal protective equipment and coordinating state EMS needs. The task force was was formed after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks as a way to better prepare New Jersey’s preparations and responses to large-scale events, according to the press release.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

‘Gimmick’ is how future pipelines will avoid environmental and permitting issues What if PennEast could secure a pipeline through Hopewell without having to apply for a single permit? Recently, several residents, who live along Jacobs Creek, received a letter from a representative of Sunoco Logistics Partners LP (Sunoco) that it had filed an application for an “Emergency Repair” permit with the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), that they had 15 days to visit the DEP offices or the township clerk’s office to examine Sunoco’s application and file any objections. Unbeknownst to all residents with whom we spoke, including several who have lived along the creek for over 50 years, there is an underground pipeline beneath Jacobs Creek, which is the subject of the Sunoco permit.

Sunoco’s letter proposes “Two (2) 1250foot HDD [horizontal directional drill] pipeline strings,” a replacement and an additional pipeline, or two new pipelines. Why have a pipeline beneath a fresh water stream in the first place? The creek is a source for wildlife, including birds, deer, red foxes, raccoons, and other small animals, to drink and bathe. And yes, this is the same creek that General George Washington and his ragtag army traversed to surprise the Hessians at the Battle of Trenton, changing the course of the Revolutionary War. Since this pipeline predates the 1970s, we have learned much about the ecology of streams, wetlands and the flora and fauna in the habitat that the creek supports. According to Sunoco’s 2016 SEC Form 10-K, Sunoco plans to transport NGLs [natu-

ral gas liquids] from the Marcellus and Utica Shale areas in Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Ohio east, through Northern Pennsylvania, across the Delaware River to Northern New Jersey, then south through New Jersey, and then west, back across the Delaware River at Jacobs Creek, into Pennsylvania and south, down to its Marcus Hook refinery. With the “total takeaway capacity to 345 thousand barrels per day.” There is a global glut of fossil fuels, they at historically low prices, another fracker, Chesapeake Energy, just filed for bankruptcy, and renewable energy is cheap. Therefore, these pipelines are unnecessary. PennEast has been unsuccessfully trying to put a pipeline through this area for years. Is Sunoco/PennEast just using this “Emergency Repair”

Permit Application as a ruse to install two new pipelines, circumventing the necessary permit process? Then, afterwards, Sunoco could sell or lease these pipelines, maybe even to PennEast? If this ploy is successful here, maybe this gimmick is how future pipelines will avoid environmental and permitting issues: find an old pipeline, get a permit for “repair,” in which it is actually replaced, then sneak in an additional pipeline. This would yield two brand new pipelines and avoid the messy business of having to apply for all those nasty permits. Genius! This is exceedingly worrisome.

Jacobs Music Company is set to close its Lawrenceville location.

Jacobs Music Company, Steinway & Sons’ exclusive dealer representative in the area with headquarters in Philadelphia, is about to close its Lawrenceville store located at 2540 Brunswick Pike, Ewing Township. With concerns about the pandemic, the store’s lease will not be renewed, according to information provided by the company. The company plans to open another location in the vicinity by next spring. Chris Rinaldi, president of Jacobs, said, “After our flagship Steinway Selection Center suffered damage during the demonstrations in central Philadelphia on May 30, we moved our pianos to our suburban locations. While we had planned on a June reopening, with much of central Philadelphia’s office buildings continuing to be empty and many other retailers closed, we have decided to keep our pianos in our suburban locations where parking is abundant and close and our customers can more easily maintain social distancing.” Jacobs Music Company is open only by appointment, and is limiting selections to one family or selection group at a time. All cus-

tomers and staff are required to wear masks and all pianos played or demonstrated are disinfected after each selection prior to the next customer’s arrival. Established in 1900, Jacobs Music was selected by Steinway & Sons as its only dealer representative in New Jersey, southeastern and south-central Pennsylvania, and Delaware for sales, technical service and concert and artist service. The company has seven showrooms, including its flagship Steinway Selection Center at 1718 Chestnut St. in Center City Philadelphia; as well as West Chester, Doylestown and Ephrata, Pennsylvania; and Cherry Hill, Lawrenceville and Shrewsbury. Jacobs Music is one of the nation’s oldest and largest acoustic and digital piano retailers with new, pre-owned and authentic factory restored Steinway & Sons pianos as well as Steinway’s Boston and Essex pianos. Jacobs also offers a vast selection of used instruments from manufacturers around the world and Roland digital pianos. For more information, visit www.jacobsmusiccompany.com or call 609-434-0222.

My dad was a fairly large Peter Perrotta The XT6 only comes with man and with six kids he reaone engine choice, a 3.6-liter, soned it was one of the only cars that could fit his brood. There weren’t any V-6 coupled with a 9-speed automatic transmission. This engine puts out 310 horsepowthree row SUVs back then. Besides that, I could still hear him saying, er. While I found the ride of this new XT6 to “There’s nothing like the ride of a Cadillac”. Well, many decades later, I must admit be very comfortable, I must admit that I felt

that at times, this engine was a tad bit underpowered for this SUV. Don’t get me wrong, this XT6 could perform all the necessary everyday driving functions quite well. It has adequate acceleration and passing skills. However, there were times when I “punched” the accelerator that I expected a more robust response. But, to be honest, at the end of the day, that’s not what Cadillac is all about. Cadillac has long built its reputation and following, not on performance, but instead on offering comfort and luxury. And, for those reasons, this Caddy holds true to form. I found the XT6 to be very roomy and spacious and it offers that floating on air ride quality one can only find in a Cadillac. I truly believe that most car brands carry their own unique DNA. And, when I first took the wheel of this new model Caddy and took it down the road, it didn’t take me long to harken back to the days when my dad used to say, “There’s nothing like the ride of a Caddy”. The base price on my XT6 tester was $54,695. This XT6 featured $8,100 in added optional equipment and $995 for destination charge. The total MSRP sticker price came in at $63,810. The options included: $2,350 for an enhanced visibility and technology package; $2,095 for upgraded 20-inch polished wheels; $1,300 for a driver assist package; $1,000 for an upgraded Bose audio system with 14 speakers; $750 for heated rear seats and an air quality package; and $625 for the Manhattan Noir metallic exterior paint. Some of the items included in the technology package include: rear camera mirror; automatic parking assist with braking; HD surround vision; heads up display and an 8-inch color gauge display. The driver assist package includes: adaptive cruise control; automatic emergency braking and automatic seat belt tightening. As far as the EPA transportation department fuel ratings, this Cadillac could do better. The EPA fuel ratings for this model come

in at an overall of 20 miles per gallon – featuring 24 mpg in highway driving and 17 in city driving. The EPA estimates that the average annual fuel cost for driving this XT6 to be about $2,000 as it is rated at using 5 gallons of gas for every 100 miles driven. The government’s crash test ratings for this new vehicle are incomplete. It got the highest ratings of five stars for both the driver and passenger frontal crash tests. It got 4 stars for the rollover test. However, it was not rated for an overall score or the side crash test. As far as the interior ergonomics go, I found the new XT6 to be above average, but not outstanding. The interior quality and build are solid, but not over the top. All the XT6 models come with touchscreen infotainment, Apple carplay and Android Auto, on board Wi-Fi, wireless smartphone charging and Cadillac’s latest version of its CUE (Cadillac User Experience) infotainment software that is all displayed on an 8-inch screen. The infotainment system easily functions. I was able to sync my phone and iPod music system and use the navigation system without much problem. However, I found the navigation system to be frustrating at times. Instead of taking me on the most direct routes to where I was going, it had a penchant for rerouting me on a roundabout route instead. Moreover, when I was stuck in traffic in Center City Philadelphia one day, it had me circling the same block over and over. I’m not sure why this was, but there must be a software glitch that could easily be corrected. Overall, I was fairly impressed with this new addition to the Cadillac line up. I would say that anyone who is considering buying or leasing a mid-sized, three row, luxury SUV should give this vehicle serious consideration. Peter Perrotta’s On The Road column appears weekly.

HOME BURIAL

NM-00433994

Robert Frost’s poem “Home Burial” depicts a husband who is talking to his wife as she sits and seems to gaze through a window at her child’s grave in the family graveyard. If you have ever seen graves within the conﬁnes of a family’s estate, you might have asked yourself whether this centuries-old tradition persists. The answer is that there are no laws against home burials in every state except California, Indiana, Washington, and the District of Columbia. Some states require the services of a Funeral Director be utilized, and it is important to check local zoning laws before burying on private land or in a home cemetery. Additional restrictions may also apply with respect to embalming, caskets, and other factors.

During our lives we plan for education, having a family, vacations, weddings and retirement. We purchase insurance to help us in situations that may happen, such as accidents, earthquakes, fire, floods and theft. We should also consider the pre-planning of our funeral service as it not only lets our survivors know what our wishes are, but it can also avoid financial hardship. To learn more about our services, please call 609-737-2900. We are located at 21 North Main St. Continuous Family Service Since 1881. QUOTE: “The little graveyard where my people are.”

Book-Entry-Only The Bonds will be issued in book-entry-only form, initially in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC. Purchasers will not receive certificates representing their interests in the Bonds. Individual purchases will be in the principal amount of $5,000 or any integral multiple in excess thereof.

CUSIP Numbers The Municipal Advisor will apply for CUSIP numbers with respect to the Bonds, but neither the Municipal Advisor nor the Borough will assume any obligation for the assignment or printing of such numbers on the Bonds or for the correctness of such numbers, and neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect thereto shall constitute cause for a failure or refusal by the winning bidder to accept delivery of and make payment for the Bonds.

. Where did you grow up? A. I grew up in Rockaway NJ in a lake community called White Meadow Lake which is in Morris County. After high school, I attended Ramapo College of New Jersey in Bergen County to obtain my Bachelor Degree in Business. I purchased by first condo in Middlesex County and now I live and raise my family in Hillsborough in Somerset County. I love Hillsborough and it’s central location to everything. I’m a life-long Jersey Girl at heart and understand the demographics and housing market in different communities.

. What do you see in the future for Real Estate sales and prices? A. In my 25 years of selling real estate, I have seen markets swing in varying degrees. I have sold in buyers’ markets and sold in sellers’ markets. Although it is very hard to predict the future, the real estate market has been very strong the last couple of years. Interest rates are at an alltime low so many first-time homebuyers are trying to get into the market. I also see an increase in the number of investors looking to enter the market. . What do you enjoy doing when you are not working? A. In addition to being with my family, I like to stay active by working out, biking and walking. I also recently completed my first Rugged Maniac race. For the past 10

. What are the top 3 things that separate you from your competition? A. First, I take a very honest and comprehensive look at my client’s situation, family, financial goals, and the marketplace. Next, I build a relationship with my client and embrace their goals as my own. Finally, I accept a high level of responsibility for my clients’ satisfaction and achievement of these goals.

. How long have you worked in real estate? A. I started in the mortgage business after college and decided to transition to real estate in 1992. I worked as a sales associate with the Top Producing Agent at Prudential NJ Properties. We were the #1 Award Winning Sales Team in the entire company. I switched to Keller Williams Realty in 2013 and have been a Top Producing Agent as well as the Director of Agent Services. I was also involved in the New Agent Mentoring and Training Program.

. What is your specialty? A. I love working with first time homebuyers. There is nothing more rewarding than helping someone purchase their first home. I also work with investors. I have invested in many properties 2230 Route 206, myself, I’m currently a landlord and I have successfully Belle Mead, NJ 08502 flipped homes. This gives me the experience and 908-359-0893 insight into these markets. In addition, I also sell in a lot in adult communities since many of my clients are downsizing.
