Litigation filed over Princeton-Cranbury school agreement By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer

The Princeton Public Schools Board of Education allegedly broke the state’s public meetings law in June in the way in which its members voted to extend an agreement for Cranbury students to attend Princeton High School, two residents claim in a lawsuit that seeks to throw out that vote. In their July 27 civil suit, husband and wife Joel Schwartz and Corrine O’ Hara said the board voted electronically, on laptop computers, rather than by having members raise their hand or

through a voice vote, “or by any other method by which the public could determine who had voted in the affirmative, who had voted in the negative and who had abstained … .” “By voting in this fashion, any one board member’s actual vote was sheltered and hidden from the public,” the couple alleged in the lawsuit that was filed in state Superior Court, Trenton. “Except for their physical presence in front of the public, the level of information provided to the public about the vote was the same as if it had been conducted in private— none.”

School district officials hit back at the lawsuit and said votes are displayed to the public. Superintendent of Schools Stephen C. Cochrane, in a statement, said “all votes are made in public and recorded in real-time.” “The votes of individual board members are displayed on the large screen at the front of the board meeting room,” he said. “In addition, any member of the public can go to the BoardDocs website and see how each board member voted as soon as the vote is complete. “Mr. Schwartz has attended numerous board meetings and is

aware of how individual votes are displayed,” Cochrane said. “If he had a question or suggestion regarding the voting process, he did not voice that publicly or in the numerous private conversations he has had with me over the last several months. I wish he had. “There is a place for lawsuits and there is also a place for common sense and conversation. If Mr. Schwartz had a concern about transparency or wanted the results of a particular vote to be read aloud by the board secretary, he simply could have asked,” the superintendent said. The Princeton Packet live

tweeted the vote tally on Twitter during the June 12 board meeting. Schwartz, who was at the meeting seated in the front row, said by phone on July 30 that he “did not see anything.” “I’ll leave that for the judge to decide,” he said. “It’s a legal question. So I’ll leave that for the judge and for my attorney to comment on.” Superior Court Judge Mary C. Jacobson has scheduled a hearing on the case for Sept. 27. “When the vote was taken, neither I nor any of the 30 or more

Mercer County 4-H Fair this year draws from a century of rural fairs By Lea Kahn Staff Writer

The first Mercer County 4-H Fair, held on the grounds of Princeton High School in 1919, featured displays of chickens, pigs, rabbits and vegetables raised by young 4-H club members. Fast forward to the 100th annual Mercer County 4-H Fair, which was held July 28-29 at Howell Living Farm, Hopewell Township, and club members still showed off their prized rabbits, chickens and vegetables - along with exhibits of their photography, arts and crafts, and needlework projects. While the range of 4-H club members’ entries has evolved over the past century, what has not changed is the goal of the annual 4-H fair - to showcase the club members’ projects and to increase boys’ and girls’ interest in joining the 4-H Club program, said Chad Ripberger, the Mercer County 4-H agent. The abbreviation “4-H” stands for head, heart, hands and health, which represents the core values of independence, belonging, mastery and generosity. The 4-H program symbol is a four-leaf clover. “(The club members) develop a sense of independence, a sense of belonging and serving the community,” Ripberger said. The 4-H program is open to children in grades one through 12, and one year past high school. There are animal clubs, art clubs, community service and leadership clubs, and nature clubs. The Mercer County 4-H Fair is the oldest 4-H fair in New Jersey and grew out of agricultural fairs that were popular in the 19th century, Ripberger said. The fairs aimed to bring the newest farming techniques and practices to farmers, he said. But back to the Mercer Coun-

ty 4-H fair. Since its inception in 1919, the fair has moved from place to place around the county. It moved to the county-owned Howell Living Farm in 2008. While the 4-H club members’ exhibits were central to the fair, there were plenty of activities for children to sample during the twoday fair, including a hay ride in a horse-drawn wagon. In one tent, children could try to milk a goat - a wooden replica, not a real one - and they could shear wool off a (fake) sheep while 4-H club members watched and guided them. Visitors could learn what to feed a rabbit (hint, carrots and lettuce are treats, not the core of a rabbit’s diet). Young visitors could go for a pony ride, or they could have their face painted. They could even have a green 4-H symbol tattooed on their arm or hand. Temporary, of course. One of the more popular events was the pie-eating contest, but with a trick. Contestants had to eat a small slice of blueberry pie without holding it. They had to keep their hands behind their back. “Ready, set, go. This is an important skill. Lick, lick, lick, keep it going, keep it going,” Ripberger said as he encouraged the young contestants, their faces smeared with blueberry pie filling. Lambertville resident Kori Briggs was one of many visitors to the fair, along with her 18-monthold son, Odin. While most children and their families checked out the 4-H club exhibits, Odin had other ideas. Odin made it quite clear he wanted to play in a stream that runs through Howell Living Farm. He sat on the bank of the stream, and sometimes in it, and tossed pebbles into the water. Well, maybe next year he’ll be a little more interested in the fair.

Hightstown Football Parents Club will host golf outing fundraiser By Lea Kahn Staff Writer

Buoyed by the success of its inaugural fundraising golf event last year, the Hightstown High School Rams Football Parents Club is teeing off for a repeat of the golf outing. The football parents group is planning a golf outing on Aug. 20 at the Mercer Oaks Golf Club, West Windsor, starting at 11 a.m. The outing includes 18 holes of golf, giveaways, contests, food and beverages.

Lawsuit

Money raised by the golf outing will be used to support the football program and the players by providing nutritious pregame meals, equipment, team gear and scholarships based on academics and service, said club president Cory Delgado. “We look to continue partnering with the school to provide donations such as fitness equipment that will benefit all Hightstown High School students, not just football players,” Delgado said. More than 80 golfers

turned out for last year’s event, which raised more than $10,000. The money was used to buy decals for the football players’ helmets, as well as for gameday dinners and college scholarships for the players. Delgado said everyone is welcome to enjoy a day of golf and camaraderie in support of student athletics. For more information, contact the club at hhsramsparents@gmail.com or visit the Rams Facebook page at HHSFPC.

Too hot to think? Studies show heat affects your brain During summer heat waves, you know your body will be hot and sluggish. But did you know that your brain is affected by the heat too? Two new studies show how heat waves and temperature spikes – which are expected to become more frequent due to climate change – are impacting our lives in surprising ways. In a new study by Harvard University, researchers found that extreme heat makes it harder to think! The study was published in the July 10 edition of PLOS Medicine as part of a special issue on climate change and health. In the study, researchers

tracked 44 students living in college dorm rooms during the summer of 2016. About half of the students lived in air-conditioned buildings, while the rest lived without AC. Over 12 days – including a five-day heat wave – students took two tests each morning just after waking up. One test measured students’ cognition and their ability to focus. The second test measured how quickly students processed and memorized information. The findings showed that during the heat wave, students who lived in the heat performed significantly worse than those who

Windsor-HigHts Herald centraljersey.com

lived in air-conditioned dorms. The overheated students experienced decreased test scores across five measures, including reaction times and memory. Students in air-conditioned rooms were not just faster, but also more accurate. According to the Harvard study authors, future studies are needed to better understand how heatrelated stress could impact larger populations, including the ability to learn, economic productivity and workplace safety. The second study, conducted by Stanford University professors and published in the July 23 edition of Nature Climate Change, suggests that hotter temperatures – a result of the changing climate – are leading to more sui-

cides. The study used new methods to understand the relationship between temperature and suicide and depression. The Stanford study found that a one-degree Celsius increase in average monthly temperature correlated with increases in the monthly suicide rate in the United States and Mexico. The study projects that unmitigated climate change could result in a combined 9,000 to 40,000 additional suicides across the United State and Mexico by 2050! These studies add to a growing body of evidence showing how heat affects our thinking and our mood. Here are a few others: • A 2006 study from researchers at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab found that when office temperatures rise above

the mid-70s, worker performance go down. Worker productivity peaks at about 72 degrees. • A study of high school graduation exams in the New York City public schools found that taking test in hot weather reduces passing rates. Scientific American just released a new animation, “Temperature Circle,” depicting a century of global warming in just 35 seconds. Bars representing 100 countries’ annual average temperature anomaly – blue for abnormally cold weather, red for abnormally warm - pulse up and down as 100 years pass. And, yes, the circle ends up “in the red.” To view the Scientific American animation, go to https://www. scientificamerican.com/ article/a-

trying to attract customers to town By Philip Sean Curran Staff Writer

Robin McGuire cast her gaze down Main Street on a recent Friday morning, one less day she has as a businesswoman in Cranbury. For little more than a year, she has operated Magnolia Gifts & Vintage on Park Place East. She opened in June 2017, but Aug. 10 will be her last day of being open in town. “I was hopeful,” she said, standing next to a message board that reads “Moving Sale, up to 50% off entire store.” McGuire said that about

two months ago, she made up her mind to leave. She said she plans to head to a better and bigger location in Mercer County even as she said she did “really well” in Cranbury. For local businesses, the appeal of Cranbury as a quiet, small community can work against them. “It’s not a busy town,” said local businessman David Wells, who has put his building on Main Street up for sale. He said Cranbury is a place where some “like it sleepy.” Jill Jarvis Wargo, owner of the Highbar Boutique on Main Street, said it is critical for businesses “to have your unique identity.” Wargo, a former hospital administrator, said the town needs to be a destination, a place with more restaurants and other businesses. McGuire said that to her, there needs to be more events that bring people into town, more than just Cranbury Day, the annual street fair held in September. She also said it was necessary for the leader of the Cranbury Business Association to have a business on Main Street. A representative of the

Mayor Glenn Johnson is also the owner of a small building in town where he and his wife have had tenants that have included retailers. In an interview, he shared the advice he gives them. “When I’ve sat down with people who wanted to rent the space, I’ve always given them the same advice, and that is you’ve got to advertise,” he said. “Cranbury is a small town and generally speaking, you can’t really rely on just the people here to keep a business afloat. So I’ve always suggested that people get some advertising going in some surrounding areas so they have potential customers coming from elsewhere.” Wargo said most of her customers come from outside of Cranbury, from Manalapan and Princeton. In McGuire’s case, she spoke on a day when she had organized a sidewalk sale in town. She is “sad” to leave, having had “really great customers.” “Yeah, it’s just such a shame,” she said. “We’ve all put time and money in our businesses, and we all want to succeed.”

East Windsor police, residents will mark National Night Out By Lea Kahn Staff Writer

business association could not be reached for comment. Lina Llona, president of the Middlesex County Regional Chamber of Commerce, said her sense of the retail sector in this part of New Jersey is that retailers are “holding their own.” “But I think they are struggling with what goes on through the internet, internet shopping,” she said. “If you were in the business, you would have to be doing that, some kind of internet sales or something, because everyone’s online.” According to data released by the U.S. Census Bureau, “E-commerce” sales made up 9.5 percent of all retail sales in the first quarter of 2018. In all, that made up $123.7 billion worth of purchases online, the government estimated. Retailers, though, find themselves in good economic times. Last month, the federal government released its estimate for retail and food sales for June, at nearly $507 billion, or up 0.5 percent from May. Overall, the gross domestic product was up 4.1 percent in the second quarter of this year.

Aiming to bring the East Windsor Township Police Department and the community it serves closer together, East Windsor is participating in the annual National Night Out event on Aug. 7. East Windsor’s National Night Out, set for 6-9 p.m., will take place at the East Windsor PAL complex, 30 Airport Road, according to Mayor Janice S. Mironov and Police Chief James Geary. There will be plenty of activities for young and old - from a demonstration by a K-9 dog trained to sniff out drugs, to a fire hose demonstration, a moon bounce house, a rock climbing wall and face painting, Mironov said. And of course, plenty of food and music. There will be a child car safety seat inspection, too. Nonprofit groups and businesses will set up booths with information and give-

aways that support the National Night Out theme, Mironov said. “East Windsor is committed to strengthening neighborhood unit and police and community partnerships to help deter crime and to enhance our local quality of life,” she said. This year marks the 35th anniversary of the first National Night Out in 1984, which was held in 400 towns in 23 states, according to the National Association of Town Watch, which created the event. Last year, National Night Out was held in 16,000 communities in all 50 states, plus U.S. territories and military bases, the National Association of Town Watch said. Included among those communities was East Windsor. “East Windsor has participated in hosting National Night Out for many years, during which we have provided thousands of citizens with information on crime prevention and community partner-

ships,” Mironov said. “We are pleased to be a part of this national effort, which provides an opportunity to enhance positive relationships between our citizens and local government.”

DIVER’S MOUTH SYNDROME According to a recent study involving 100 certified recreational divers, dental problems can become more apparent or exacerbated underwater. Researchers found that the most common problem reported by divers was “barodontalgia.” More popularly known as “tooth squeeze,” barodontalgia is the experience of a squeezing sensation or pain in teeth that occurs as changing air pressure forces any pockets of air in teeth (such as those found in untreated cavities) to expand and contract. Other divers reported jaw and gum pain, which was most likely caused by clenching hard on the mouthpiece, as well as the loosening of crowns. With this in mind, those planning on scuba diving are advised to visit the dentist first to help avoid “diver’s mouth syndrome.” Ours is a unique, advanced facility designed to provide patients with the most up-to-date, comfortable, convenient dental

care possible. We provide all the dental services you and your family require, including fillings, crowns & bridges, implants, periodontal care, complete restorations, cosmetic procedures, nutrition counseling, and preventive care. We’ll keep an eye on your complete oral health at Montgomery Knoll, 192 Tamarack Circle, Skillman, when you join our ever-growing list of smiling patients. Call 609-924-8300 to schedule an appointment. “Our commitment is to relationships of partnership, respect, and appreciation.” “We offer cosmetic and family dentistry as well as Zoom!® and Invisalign®.” Please e-mail your questions or comments to: drjamescally@yahoo.com P.S. cuba divers may want their dentists to evaluate their mouthpieces for fit and even distribution of biting pressure.

County announces project for amateur photographers

Mercer County invites you to submit your digital images to help the county create a collection of recent photographs that illustrate living, working and playing within its 12 municipalities.

This is not a contest but an opportunity for amateur photographers who seek a broader audience for their work. The images could be used in editorial and commercial digital and print media promoting the County. The photographer’s credit line would appear in the media in which they appear, whenever possible. The county would have exclusive rights of the images and will not sell them. Participants must complete an agreement before submitting images. Instructions and requirements can be found online at ciephoto.com/PhotogDirex.pdf.

Today, animated murals adorn the sides of haunting infrastructures, which are now insecure from the impact of natural disasters - including time. Dozens of murals are located alongside the city’s iconic boardwalk. Larger-thanlife abstract paintings also reside on buildings along the city’s streets that now house attractive eateries, retail shops and tourism. Jenn Hampton, curator of the Parlor Gallery, which is on Cookman Avenue, said the colorful sights were non-existent until three years ago. “I felt really weird when I would read all of these articles about Asbury Park being an un-artistic community … I noticed that people didn’t know about art, and I noticed when people would say ‘oh there are no sculptures or murals in town,’ ” Hampton said. Hampton, being an art enthusiast her-

self, knew there was something that could be done to bringing art to the small city she said was in need of an artistic overhaul. Hampton handpicks each artist to create imagery throughout the community. The thriving music and culture scene - a modern renaissance one might call it - involves playing off the intrinsic flair Asbury Park naturally exudes. “When you are doing it, like many other things in life, you are not sure why. You’re just like, ‘I know I need to do this.’ It is interesting to see how art does change a landscape and people’s energy,” Hampton said. “Any town that is finding its identity needs art in it,” Hampton said. “We are in an area where people don’t necessarily know about contemporary art … New Jersey isn’t really known for art. There is this narrative that needs to be changed.” Aside from historical iconography that has existed for years in the city, includ-

COVER STORY

by Ken Downey Jr.

Musicians on a Mission give back to community

usicians on a Mission, a local nonprofit organization, had two of its local bands performing at the Monmouth County Fair on July 27. The organization, which was founded in 2010, was conceived with the goal of using the power of music to create connection and inspire giving. Brenda Wirth, who is on the Board of Directors and serves as the treasurer of Musicians on a Mission, was at the fair with those bands to try and spread the word of what the organization is all about. “We put on musical events using local musicians at local venues and we raise money for small local charities,” Wirth said. Musicians on a Mission is currently working with more than 30 local charities, according to its website. The organization is always open to adding more charities to that list. “We want to let people know what we do,” Wirth said. “If you have a charity that you know something about, and it might be a little something that helps children or veterans or something, but you came to us and said you think this would be a good fit for us, we might be able to put on a little show at a local church or a local venue and then we charge admission, the musicians play for free, and we donate all of that money to that charity. It’s like everybody wins.” The musicians come from various places. All of the bands look to get more exposure and they can do that by working with Musicians on a Mission.

‘We provide a place for the musicians to play and it’s them giving back to the community. We were trying to figure out a way for musicians to give back and this does it.’ Brenda Wirth

Elaine Orzechowski performs with her band, The Cimarron Sky Band at the Monmouth County Fair on Friday, July 27. “It’s great because the musicians get to play in front of larger audiences than they would normally where a lot of local musicians play,” Wirth said. “Some of these bands were playing in local coffee houses and they get the chance to have a larger audience. We provide a place for the musicians to play and it’s them giving back to the community. We were trying to figure out a way for musicians to give back and this does it. Our musicians are very generous.” Elaine Orzechowski was at the

Monmouth County Fair on July 27 to play the first of two sets with her band, The Cimarron Sky Band. Orzechowski has been involved with Musicians on a Mission for several years. “I lived in Asbury Park, and a lot of the Asbury Park musicians were the core base of Musicians on a Mission,” Orzechowski said. “I played at some of their open mics and then I branched out and have my own band now. We still play some of the events and try to keep a hand in it. It’s a great organization and they do a lot for local

organizations and charities.” Orzechowski, who has been playing in bands since she graduated from high school, plays guitar, mandolin, keyboards and flute. The Cimarron Sky Band plays bluegrass and country. “We do a little bit of each,” she said. “We play a lot of shows each year dedicated to the classic ladies of country music. We did a whole series at the Ocean County Library for Women’s History Month and we do that every year, we have a lot of fun doing it.”

The second band representing Musicians on a Mission at the county fair was Michael Patrick and the Suburban Hillbillies. “We do a lot of country rock,” Patrick said. “We do a lot of covers, we used to do a lot of originals, but we like to get paid. We’re just happy to be here. It’s a nice event and I’m happy to be out playing on a nice Friday night.” Patrick has been involved with Musicians on a Mission since almost the very beginning. After meeting Jenny Woods, the co-founder, when she was selling guitar string-based jewelry, the two of them clicked. Patrick has been involved with Musicians on a Mission ever since. “Over the years, but not as much as I like to because we play all over the tri-state area, we try to get involved as much as we can,” he said.

Murals Continued from Page 2B ing the all-too-cheery, yet slightly gothic Wonder Bar cameo, the new art that can be found throughout Asbury Park could best be defined as oceanic hyper-surrealism. As an ode to the Atlantic Ocean, the murals are a mixture of pop culture and fantasy, components of which make each piece entirely unique and fit for the modern era. Since 2015, Hampton said, she has facilitated the creation of 31 murals in Asbury Park. On any given day, you can see people interacting with the murals, taking pictures alongside them and simply enjoying the beauty that is in front of them. Hampton said she admires the engagement the works receive from members of the public. “Asbury needed new iconography,” Hampton said. “The colors they are painting our town are as sad as a wall having no art on it. Somewhere in the lineage of the art world, in design sensibilities, someone has decided that gray is high-end. “I don’t want people to remember there are wooden walls holding up (structures) because of superstorm Sandy or because something is in flux. All of a sudden, you forget what those wooden walls represent, which is a work in progress. Now, you just remember the murals. You don’t remember things were once falling apart.” The Parlor Gallery is redefining the way art is perceived by the individual consumer, locals and visitors. Hampton, who was once referred to as the “The Mother of Asbury,” said that as a curator, her goal is to facilitate a personal relationship between individuals and the art they view, that is, if such a relationship exits. “I wish I could put a microphone on people when they come into galleries. They say, ‘I don’t get it. I could do that myself,’ ” Hampton said. “There is that narrative and it is interesting that this is a universal thing.” Hampton said the personal relationships that exist between works of art and the individual are the most meaningful in terms of exposure. “One of my goals in Asbury is to cre-

ate an artists’ residency here. The ocean is inspiring. I feel like the town is inspiring. I’m wondering how (Asbury) can change an artists’ body of work. You take yourself out of the studio and you put yourself in an uncomfortable environment to see how it changes your art,” Hampton said. Next up for a residency at the Parlor Gallery is trianglist Howard Schoor. Schoor’s art is defined by the use of the triangle. Trianglism is a concept that Schoor, a retired civil engineer, said is accompanied by a certain aesthetic he wants viewers to appreciate as he begins to define his identity in the art world. The inclusion of the triangle throughout the collection appears to represent Schoor’s desire for the continual use of the mechanics of precision – a quest for accuracy and symmetrically finite details. “I am trying to go into the depths of the art process and sell my art. I know I have a chance to meet people and tell them my story. Hopefully, it will resonate and they will buy some art,” Schoor laughed. Schoor’s exhibition may be viewed from July 28 through Sept. 1. at the Parlor Gallery, 717 Cookman Ave., Asbury Park.

The most popular paint party in Princeton

few weeks ago, I peaked in the window of the newly relocated Cranbury Station Gallery on Palmer Square-now at 10 Hulfish Street next to Jazams-for a glimpse of artwork by my favorite Princeton landscape artist, Kathleen Maguire Morolda . I left with an entirely different picture – a scene of a dozen disabled individuals with looks of sheer joy on their faces. I had to go into the gallery to find out how I could purchase some of what they were exhibiting. Kathie Morolda, who also is the owner of the gallery, was the host to a paint party for residents of the Veterans Memorial Home, based in Edison. Usually she goes to the memorial home to conduct her paint parties for the veterans. This time the veterans were treated to a field trip to Princeton, where they found artistic heaven in the gallery and a visual treasure in Palmer Square. Ninety-nine-year-old John– who in his ‘youth’ was a professional artist – rediscovered his artistic talents thanks to his muse, Kathie. “‘Kathie, you have certainly made my day!’ ” says John to me after each class. I always tell him that, in fact, HE, has made my day,” said Kathie. John was so excited about his new lease on life that he invited his children to Princeton to observe the paint party. I quickly learned that the magical and transformative effects of Kathie’s paint parties are not limited to disabled veterans. Kathie convinced me (whose attempts at painting have been as pathetic as my attempts at cooking) to participate in a paint party on the evening of July 12. I am surprised that no one has noticed that my wrinkles and bags under my eyes have diminished without the benefit of air brushing or a facelift. I am 20 years younger, in spirit at least, than I was PPP (Pre Paint Party). People of all ages, all socio-ethnic backgrounds, and all professions participated with me in Kathie’s mid-summer paint party. The wannabe artists included: a 92 year old, downtown Princeton resident Mary Anne Haas, who has participated in about two dozen of Kathie’s paint parties; Millennials for whom the paint party was part of night out on Palmer

What sets Kathie’s paint parties apart from others that I have seen advertised is that Kathie, instead of focusing on eating and drinking, emphasizes camaraderie, painting, and learninghow to create a piece of art “that really makes the participant proud,” said Kathie. The intoxication comes from the act of painting. In the no-stress, no-angst zone of the gallery, the party goers painters laughed a lot, made new friends, escaped all stressful electronic equipment and people at home/work, and came away with an arts “masterpiece” suitable for framing.. Kathie, who has been producing paint parties for groups and individuals in her gallery and in many other locations for about five years, handed me a brochure listing the benefits of painting: fosters creative growth; strengthens memory; nurtures emotional growth; builds problem solving and motor skills; offers stress relief; promotes an optimistic attitude. But I contend that all these benefits are due not only to the act of painting, but also to the painting instructor. I have known Kathie since she opened her Princeton gallery in 1983 and have been a fan of her upbeat demeanor and smile-inducing artwork in which her use of color is the key. As a Jersey gal “through and through,” she sees the natural beauty of her New Jersey environment – both urban and rural. She loves the variety of New Jersey’s landscape, particularly its brilliant color changes throughout the year, has

been the inspiration. The Jersey native lives in Monroe, where she built her first gallery and framing business within a renovated blacksmith shop behind her residence. The fact that she has built a successful business, raised four children (who are responsible for her six grandchildren), remained married, and is the caregiver to her severely handicapped brother is a testament to her nature and how painting has helped her keep it all together. Teaching has always been part of Kathie’s artistic picture. For years she has run a women’s watercolor workshop – two days at her Jersey Shore house in Lavallette with views of the ocean and bay. Even though the workshops cost a few hundred dollars, she donates a scholarship every year to a woman who is “going through a very tough time and could benefit mentally and perhaps even physically from the workshop. The selection process is run through the Princeton YWCA,” said Kathie. Her commitment to her community and to helping others has been recognized formally by community groups; she is the recipient of the 2007 Mercer County Business Woman of the Year; the 2007 State of New Jersey Business Woman of the Year; and the 2010 Princeton YWCA Tribute Award. “But my best reward, greatest satisfaction is seeing others find the same joy in painting that I find,” said Kathie, who convinced me to do a paint party with my six grandkids and their parents (if they are good) as a Christmas present. She would provide - and therefore wash- the full-body aprons (along with berets that the kids can keep), and she would be happy to host the party in her gallery, not in my house. http://cranburystationgallery.com/.

Richard Burke REALTOR®, GRI, SRES, Broker-Sales Associate Office: 609-924-1600 | Cell: 609-529-3371

Email: rick.burke@foxroach.com | www.BurkeBringsBuyers.com

. Where did you grow up? A. I am a New Jersey resident my whole life. Born in Red Bank and raised in Middletown, after college my wife and I moved to central New Jersey where we have been for almost 40 years.

. What do you like most about living in this area? A. There is something for everyone in the greater Princeton area. Personally, I enjoy the outdoors (hiking, fishing, kayaking, biking, golfing). Mercer County’s commitment to the space devoted to parks, trails and waterways make for an exceptional quality of life people who enjoy outdoor activities.

. What is your specialty in real estate? A. Several years ago I earned the SRES® (Seniors Real Estate Specialist) designation. Baby boomers like me often are dealing not only their own futures regarding planning for retirement and real estate needs, but that of

their parents and children. The SRES course provided me with all of the tools to help me help seniors who are not sure where to begin. While “aging in place” is preferred, there may come a time when it is no longer a choice. In many cases baby boomers have parents and children with special needs. I have an excellent network of professionals in place to help them make the best choices.

. What separates you from your competition? A. My marketing communications background and skills enable me to better position and present my clients properties and help define where the prospective buyers will be coming from, thus maximizing how every marketing dollar is spent to target prospective buyers. On the buy side, I am very straight with my clients about the pros and cons of properties they are considering.

Q Q

. What did you do before real estate? A. I was Owner/President of a marketing communications company for 18 years.

. What is the most challenging/gratifying aspect of what you do? A. Helping people who need the most help. Firsttime home buyers and Seniors seem to have the most needs. First time home buyers have many questions every step of the way, and I am happy to lead them. Seniors often do not have a spouse or children living locally to help with a move, so you become family. Trust is a huge part of any transaction, especially when you are dealing with Seniors.
