All hands on deck for The Sea Dogs

By AleXAndrA SeyMoUr For the past 10 years, the songs and stories of pirates have been kept alive along the shores of the Delaware River. The Sea Dogs, a Fieldsborobased pirate reenactment group and band, this year celebrates a decade of performing and educating people of all ages. The group has grown and gained local notoriety by playing traditional sea shanties and Celtic tunes, as well as engaging in pirate and Revolutionary War battle reenactments. “The idea behind the group is to keep shanties alive, and that’s what we do,” member Stu Carkeek, 59, said. Sea shanties are work songs pirates sang aboard their ships to accompany their labor. “We’re not glorifying [pirates], we’re trying to educate,” member Eileen Eggert, 45, said. “We’ll make no bones about it, pirates were bad people.” But as bad as the pirates might be, the Sea Dogs recognize pirates’ significance in history and strive to allow others this appreciation as well. The 13-member group performs about 20 times a year and puts a strong emphasis on being inclusive and family-oriented. They also welcome short-term members of any age, the youngest currently See SEA DOGS, Page 4 N

Family of field archers finding success By Kyle Kondor When Greg Mancini was 3 years old, he’d watch his dad Vincent repeatedly shoot arrows out of his compound bow at a target in the backyard of their house in South Amboy, practicing for his next tournament. When Vincent was done shooting, he would set up a chair and watch his son do the same. At the time, Greg had no idea he

was doing something he hopes to continue for the rest of his life. Now 22, the Bordentown resident has become one of the most accomplished young field archers in the state of New Jersey, having finished in third place among 200 competitors at the Bigfoot Open at the Black Knight Bowbenders in Jackson. The Bigfoot Open, which took place on July 12, is the state’s largest outdoor archery event. The event takes place outdoors,

which isn’t quite as popular as an indoor archery event, though the two are extremely similar. (The argument can also be made that outdoor archery is a lot more complex due to the distance of the shot and the amount of targets.) The outdoor course at the Black Knight Bowbenders consists of 28 targets that range from 15 to 80 yards away from the shooting point. Each archer shoots four See MANCINI, Page 6

It’s for the kids. Plain and simple. This is why the Anchor House Ride for Runaways participants ride their bikes almost 500 miles in a 7-day span from Lexington, Virginia to a warm welcoming celebration at Quaker Bridge Mall in Lawrence, making a difference with every mile and raising more than $517,000. The annual ride, which first began 36 years ago, raises money for Anchor House, a shelter in Trenton for runaway and/or abused teenagers. This year, seven participants hailed from Bordentown, each riding for a different reason and setting their own paces along the way. Bordentown City resident Mikki Quinn, a 61-year-old grandmother and retired Trenton art teacher, saw firsthand what Anchor House has done for many of her students who needed a safe place to go to when in distress. “I know the home situation that many of my students came from,” Quinn said. “They knew that they were always welcome at Anchor House, even if it was just for counseling. No one is ever turned away. Lots of the teens may just be dealing with the typical angst. Some cases are much more serious, and DYFS needs to be called. No matter what the situation, Anchor See RIDERS, Page 8

HOPE

HOSE HUMANE CO. #1

Annual carnival helps keep Hope Hose firehouse running Hope Hose Humane Co. #1 is establishing a new summertime tradition in Bordentown. For the second year, the volunteer firefighter and EMT company is set to host a carnival. The Hope Hose carnival is scheduled for Aug. 20-23 on the grounds next to Retro Fitness on Route 206. Games, kids’ activities and food stands are set to open at 5 p.m.; rides open 6:30 p.m. After taking over the carnival in 2013 — the previous year Hope Hose only provided

lighting for the carnival — fire company volunteers are focusing on spreading the word about the fundraising event. Hope Hose firefighter and EMS captain Richard Mercantini said he hopes this year’s carnival has a family-friendly appeal. “We’re trying to give the community a chance to have something to do to have family time together,” Mercantini said. In an effort to make things family oriented, event organizers hired Wizard’s Festival of Fun, a small carnival company based in

Blackwood. Mercantini said Wizard’s offers a wide variety of rides and attractions for children. Family Night featuring “all-you-canride” tickets for $20 is set for Aug. 21. Once kids have had their fill of carnival rides, they can try their hands at arts and crafts or grab a snack from the food court. In addition to family fun, event organizers are booking live entertainment. Mercantini says bands are lined up to perform during the weekend. Black Brandt, a classic rock band from New Egypt, is scheduled to play

Friday night. While Hope Hose aims to provide a memorable family experience, the carnival has another goal: raising money for the firehouse. Mercantini said last year’s carnival raised about $10,000 for the fire company. Proceeds from the event help keep the firehouse running; the volunteers use the funds for equipment and building repairs.

SEA DOGS continued from Page 1 being 12-years old. “One of the things that I say to people when they’re joining…is that it’s purely for fun,” the Sea Dogs founder Del Merritt, 45, said. “If you’re looking for money, go somewhere else. You have to want to do it and you have to have a passion for the music and/or the history.” “Really, all you have to do is be cool to hang out with because if we like you, we want you around,” Eggert said. “We don’t even care if you’re the best singer or if you play an instrument. If you’re interested in the stuff enough to learn how to use [it], then that’s all it takes.” Originally from West Windsor, Merritt moved to Fieldsboro in 1998 with his brother and Eggert, who his is wife, where he started the group in 2004. Merritt’s keen interest in pirate history and Celtic tunes inspired him to create the Sea Dogs as a means of incorporating the two. “Those two things remained separate for most of my life,” Merritt said. “I started off

playing rock music on the drums, but then I switched over to playing Celtic music and music from the British Isles. When I was a kid, folklore, religion and mythology were my main focuses, so starting to look at poetry in music was how I was introduced to these [types of] lyrics. You can’t really understand the mythology of folklore without understanding the history. So with this group…we were able to marry the two together.” Carkeek, who sings for the Sea Dogs, was initially drawn to join because of his love of sea shanties. “[My wife and I] were attending a festival and we heard them singing, so I went over and started singing songs with them,” Carkeek said. “I just kept following them around and then they asked if I wanted to join, so I said, ‘sure, why not.’ I’ve been with them ever since.” The band practices their repertoire every Thursday night at Merritt’s house. However, not all members live in Fieldsboro and most have careers that oftentimes make it difficult for them to make each practice. As a result,

rehearsals can turn into a means for these good friends to catch up with each other. “Sometimes we won’t practice as much because we’re gigging a lot and so we’re out a lot, or if it’s an off-season and Del wants to introduce some new tunes, then we do that,” said member Steve Alt, 49, who has known Merritt since high school. “Or sometimes it’s just a great opportunity to hang out. The band has become my friends, which is great because I expected it to be my band and now it’s my buddies, too.” Carkeek said the Sea Dogs have also taken the first steps towards releasing a CD, a project they hope to finish in the near future. The group does not adopt personas for their reenactments because they do not want to distract from the historical knowledge they convey. However, while they are not actors, they still take measures to prepare themselves for performances, including arriving at venues early to familiarize themselves with the space so they can then derive a battle plan for their reenactment. “We try to find a way to make it look like the most convincing battle,” Merritt said. “The main thing is thinking of what resources you have…and coming up with loose plans before we go out and start shooting each other.” To enhance their performances and supplement the knowledge they share, the Sea Dogs enjoy getting dressed up in costumes and bringing artifacts and weaponry to display to their audience. Attendees generally receive these objects and outfits very well, especially children who approach members with curiosity and eagerness to relate their own pirate knowledge. “I watch Del [and other members] relate to children in a very magical way,” Alt said. For the most part, Alt only partakes in the

band side of the Sea Dogs by playing the acoustic guitar and leaves the reenacting to the other members. However, the band aspect of the group is equally interactive with audience members. “One time, we were the opening act for a rock band at a fundraiser event, and when we did our sea-shanty thing, we were really lit-up that night,” Alt said. “We did one really hot set, and afterwards, everyone was hanging around us telling us that it was really cool…That made me feel really good because if I could wave my magic wand, that’s what I would like to do every night.” Eggert prefers doing Revolutionary War reenactments because she loves European history and had involved herself in those types of reenactments prior to the Sea Dogs. She particularly enjoys performing at the Siege of Fort Mifﬂin, but likes all opportunities to educate the audience about the role of women, a side less frequently portrayed and slightly more challenging to execute from a historical context. “There weren’t that many [girl pirates], but there were some,” Eggert said. “From a musical standpoint it’s a little bit tricky because we try to sing on a guy register.” One of the Sea Dogs’ favorite events to perform at is the annual Pirate Day at Fort Mifﬂin, which is coming up again on Aug. 16. They have been involved with it since its inception, when Merritt helped the board design the event. “To us, that’s a big one because it’s kind of like our baby,” Merritt said. “We get to mix our two things: a band that we love and a place that we love.” The Sea Dogs have events scheduled through the summer and fall.

Vincent and Greg Mancini show off their shooting gear outside the Sportsmen’s Center in Bordentown, where they both work. (Photo by Suzette J. Lucas.) MANCINI continued from Page 1 arrows at every target for a total of 112 arrows shot during the round. Each arrow is worth up to five points depending on the accuracy of the shot. At the conclusion, a shooter can earn up to 20 points at each target for a total of 560 for the entire course, though a perfect score is extremely rare. At the Bigfoot Open, Greg Mancini shot a nearly perfect score and a personal best of 554 of 560, which outdid a handful of professional archers who competed against him. Greg’s previous best was 548. He trailed only two other archers who shot scores of 556 on the day; one of whom was 40-year old Mark Pasmore of Bridgewater, the National Field Archery Association’s Amateur Shooter of the Year. “It’s one of the best things that I’ve ever done,” Greg Mancini said. “Not just in archery but in my entire life.” Greg has been winning competitions since he was 5-years old. He’s considered an up and coming archer by his peers, but he still has a long way to go before he can accomplish what his father has. Vincent Mancini was drawn to the sport in 1982 by his brother-in-law, whom at the time was an avid hunter. Vincent, 53, is a professional field archer, and earned that title after winning national championships in 1988 and 1989. Those titles are just a few of many that Vincent earned during his yesteryears as a field archer. Right before Greg was born, Vincent’s wife, Denise Mancini, also participated in local archery competitions, including the Atlantic City Archery Classic in the amateur women’s division. Today she just shoots recreationally. During the mid 1980s, Vincent Mancini opened up his own archery pro shop in South Amboy, but it wasn’t long before he had to close up in January of 1992 due to lack of business. Shortly after, Paul Sisz, owner of the Sports-

men’s Center in Bordentown, which opened in 1972, contacted Vincent through a mutual friend who worked as a sales representative. Sisz, highly aware of Vincent’s expertise in the archery field, offered Vincent a managerial job at the Sportsmen’s Center, and Vincent has worked there ever since. “Archery pro shops aren’t on every corner, so if you have a talent or a specialty like that, than you need to take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves,” Vincent Mancini said. “I enjoy selling archery and ingraining some of the fundamentals into my customers, so I’m happy with the decision I made.” The job caused the family to move to Bordentown 17 years ago, just after Greg’s younger brother Nick was born. Greg graduated from Bordentown Regional High School in 2010, and Nick graduated in 2012. Nick also showed a lot of potential as a young archer, but chose to pursue hockey in high school and a career in personal training instead. The Sportsmen’s Center that Vincent has worked at for 22 years can be considered the hub of archery in the state. At the store, Vincent is in charge of ordering all the new archery products and managing employees, including Greg. Both Vincent and his son make sales in the archery department and work as consultants, telling customers what’s new and making sure all of their equipment is in good condition. According to Greg Mancini, who has worked with his father since he was 16, other pro shops in the area come to their store for advice on archery. The Sportsmen’s Center has been running indoor target leagues for a couple decades now, and has also started an outdoor league; it now takes place at the Black Knight Bowbenders (it previously was held right outside the store). The indoor league typically runs from January until March; this year’s outdoor league began on June 2

and was set to run for 12 weeks until the end of August. Greg Mancini is the coordinator of this year’s annual outdoor target league. The league consists of 36 archers who pair up to make 18 teams. The pairs are matched up head to head against another team on a weekly basis. The weaker team, which is decided based upon their point average from the prior weeks, receives handicap points at the start of the match so the teams are evenly matched, despite the possible differences in talent level. Some league members travel from an hour and a half away just to compete. Jose Cuevas, 53, is an accomplished archer who’s been a part of the Sportsmen’s Center leagues for about 15 years now. “The league is very competitive and a lot of fun to shoot,” Cuevas said. “Greg does a great job running the league. It can be a pain in the neck for him because he’s doing a heck of a lot of work just to make everyone happy.” Greg is in charge of scheduling as well as calculating all of the scores and standings. He runs the league purely out of passion, and receives no bonus money for doing so. “I knew that Greg was smart enough to run the league but I never knew he was this organized,” his father said while chuckling. “Whenever I try to help him with something I realize that he’s already finished the task.” Cuevas has been a good friend of Vincent Mancini’s for 30 years. In fact, Greg Mancini refers to Cuevas as “Uncle Jose.” “The Mancinis are a very hardworking

Thirty years of playing, learning

family,” Cuevas said. “I can compare Greg to myself when I was a younger archer because he’s very determined to win but he knows how to deal with losing.” Cuevas and Vincent Mancini have partnered up and won several leagues in the past and continue to do so to this day, though neither of them were able to recollect the numerous times that they’ve won the Sportsmen’s Center’s indoor and outdoor target leagues. Vincent Mancini has shot outdoor scores of 558 in his lifetime, and he’s also shot a perfect 300 on multiple indoor courses. Vincent and Greg have also won leagues together, and one thing that Greg can certainly remember is the first time he defeated his father shooting against him one on one. “I’ve been pretty into the sport since I was kid,” Greg Mancini said. “But the first time I beat my dad was a turning point for me. It was an amazing experience.” Greg claims that this moment occurred two years ago and hasn’t happened many times since. “I can count on one hand how many times I’ve beat my dad,” he said. “And when I do it’s never by more than one or two points.” Now, Greg shoots 100 arrows a day six days a week on average in pursuit of one day becoming a professional archer. He earned an associates degree in business administration from Burlington County Community College in 2012, but his goal now is to try to follow in his father’s footsteps, and continue to work at the Sportsmen’s Center.

RIDERS continued from Page 1 House has been there for the kids day after day as the kids’ safety net.” The ride began on July 13 after riders were transported to the Virginia starting point via buses from Arm and Hammer Stadium in Trenton. It ended on July 19, and for many of the riders, the ride was the best one yet. Quinn, who just finished her 12th ride, said the best part of this ride was the weather. “The weather was absolutely beautiful the entire week,” said Quinn, who most enjoyed the rolling hills and high corn fields of Amish Country in Lancaster. “There were areas that have been extremely hot, rainy, and just awful in the past, with water splattering up on us as we rode. This year though, the skies were clear and sunny, and the temperature was perfect. When I ride, I go at my own pace so that I can look around and breathe everything in. The ride becomes a part of my being—wake up, put on bike clothes, ride eight hours, shower, eat, sleep…repeat…for seven days.” The reason for this gift of wonderful weather? According to Quinn, it was because of Monsignor Rick Tofani—a friend of hers and of many of the other riders—who passed away recently. “We all know that it was Rick who made sure that we would all have the best weather conditions on this ride,” Quinn said. “On Wednesday, we all wore

purple in memory of the riders whom we have lost over the years, and for our own personal losses. For me, I lost my mother this past year, so I felt that my mom and Monsignor Rick were riding with us.” Tom Csapo, Quinn’s fiancé, drove his Chevy pick-up during the ride as one of the Rovers for his eighth year. “After riding my bike for 15 years, I started driving to help everyone out,” he said. “If someone has a ﬂat tire that needs to be fixed, or someone needs to be picked up anywhere during the ride for any reason, needs a lift to the next site, or needs shelter due to an electrical storm, the Rovers are there for them. We will do anything, except deliver pizza.” Chrissy Brennan, a CPA and executive director of the Mercer County Bar Association and mother of son Tom, felt invigorated after completing her seventh ride this year. “This was the most beautiful, perfect weather that any cyclist could want,” Brennan said. “The ride was a very challenging 480 plus miles, with a lot of hills. But because we are a family of cyclists, supporting one another the entire week, it makes it much easier to complete.” Brennan, 51, heard about the ride years ago on WPST when she was growing up in Trenton. Though she left to live in Chicago, she eventually returned back to the area, set her roots in Bordentown, and was encouraged by a neighbor to do the ride. “It is such a great, great charity,”

Brennan said. “Tom (Csapo), who is a very good friend of mine, encouraged me to do the ride. He knew that I had done some cycling for charity in London while attending graduate school there. I decided to do it, and have been riding with a wonderful group of women.” During the ride, Brennan ran into a bit of a problem with her bike. The support staff came by and was able to fix it, and then Paul Butterfield—one of the other Bordentown participants—and his fellow riders found Brennan and continued to ride with her the rest of the way. Butterfield, a 57-year-old teacher at the Mercer High School for multiply handicapped children, has been a resident of Bordentown Township for many years. He just completed his 19th ride, after having to miss last year due to a scheduling change in his summer job. “This year was like heaven for me,” Butterfield said. “I started to ride because of a student of mine many years ago, who was homeless and who slept on the ﬂoor at the school. This is why I do this.” Butterfield met his wife, Barbara, at a ride 25 years ago. (There were four other couples who met their future spouses that year, too.) “This past week, I rode with a couple that met 10 years ago, and are now married with kids, just like my wife and I and the other couples who met years ago this way,” said Butterfield, who has a daughter Kaleen, a student at Rider

Seven Bordentown residents participated in the Anchor House Ride for Runaways July 12-19, 2014. Pictured are (front) Peter Downey, Mikki Quinn, Chrissy Brennan, Rebecca Busch, and Tom Csapo, (back) Paul Butterfield and Father Mike Burns. University. “All of us who ride are like a family. We all help each other out. It doesn’t matter who you are or what you are, everyone is part of the family. It is a tradition.” City resident Rebecca Busch started riding for Anchor House after she previously competed in several triathlons and found she enjoyed cycling. The 47-year-old mother of two has followed the articles about Anchor House, and said she always knew she wanted to become a part of it. “I have met the most wonderful and amazing people through the ride,” she said. “I have actually become extremely close friends with Chrissy Brennan, and she and I were roommates the week of the ride. Other than an 8-hour patch of scary rain, the rest of the trip was scenic with beautiful rolling hills. The people that we met along the way were really nice. We stopped at several churches where people supplied food and beverages for us. They were so kind and so gracious.” At age 46, Bordentown City resident Peter Downey, who works for Princeton Insurance company, just completed his 8th ride, one that he will always remember for the beautiful weather and the reconnection to all of the riders and support staff, who have become his friends over the years.

“When I was younger, my brother was working on a project for his Eagle Scout Badge and Anchor House was one of the places that showed up as a place to research,” said Downey, who is also part of the Capital Singers of Trenton. “I thought at the time that Anchor House was a wonderful organization, and was reminded again some years later when I was at Quaker Bridge Mall during a welcome back ceremony. After that I knew I just had to do the ride. I have fallen in love with doing this every year. It is the most awesome thing I have ever done. I’m hooked.” The Rev. Mike Burns, 66, who will be celebrating his 24th year as a priest at St. Mary’s in Bordentown, just completed his 19th ride. “This year was wonderful and one of the best because the weather was favorable, and the ride was beautiful,” he said. “We rode through woods and farmland with beautiful natural scenery. It was all very nice. When we came back, there were over 100 people welcoming us back as each individual rider had their name announced as they rode in on their bike. This ride is very important because there are so many children in crisis that don’t come from loving, caring close families. Anchor House has changed many lives around, giving the kids of today hope.”

Bordentown invaded by space swine Look out above! Bordentown City is under attack by animated aliens. Firehouse Art Camp students created images of Bordentown invaded by intergalactic species during their exploration of animation cells in the Disney style. Campers also made comic book covers, ﬂip books and comic strips. Serving students age seven to 16, the Firehouse Gallery of Bordentown is finishing its 20th year of Summer Art Camp. This year students made cement teddy bears, exploded paint with Alka-seltzer, did plein air painting along the Delaware River and created wind sculptures. Firehouse Gallery owner and camp director E. Gibbons shares lessons and camper’s artwork with art teachers across the nation on his blog, artedguru.com. Gibbons’ lessons have been featured in several publications, often on Amazon’s 100 top sellers of art education titles, particularly The Art Student’s Workbook.

Gibbons isn’t the only artist teaching campers. Certified teacher Colin Temple has taught at the camp for eight years and classroom aide Tim Lin has been with the camp for four years. Visiting teachers include Gail Fountaine, Howard Michaels and Taryn McGee. Gibbons says the Firehouse Art Camp team works together to help students create unique projects. “Our focus is squarely on the students and making sure our projects are expressive, personal, and original. Some have come for many years, and we want to be sure each year is a fresh experience that is both fun and educational. It’s the program I wish I had when I was a child,” Gibbons said in a statement. Camp is set to conclude Aug. 1, but may be extended next year into August. An exhibition of work created this summer to launch next year’s registration is scheduled for March 7.

Hollywood Tans assistant manager Becky stands in the Bordentown store. (Staff photo by Lexie Yearly.)

By SCoTT MorGAn Here’s a question you might have asked yourself—in places where there’s ample heat and sunshine, why pay for an indoor tan? For Tony Nardello, who owns Hollywood Tans Bordentown with his wife Vickie, the answer is simple: people who don’t prepare their skin for being outside in the summer sun, he says, are setting themselves up for a world of hurt. Nardello takes his own advice before heading to sunny locales. Before he and Vickie took a trip to the Mediterranean, he spent two weeks getting a base tan in his salon. He did the same before he went to California. It’s not a frivolous venture, he says, it’s preparing the skin for the punishing effects of high-intensity sunshine. “If you go to the beach for eight hours and toast, you’ll get third-degree burns,” he says. “You need a base tan.” Nardello recommends that his clients visit every other day for two weeks prior to when they know they’ll be exposed to heavy sun. More frequently and they might damage their skin; less and they could be at risk for sunburn, he says. That Nardello knows this and that he runs a business for those looking for tans is still somewhat of a surprise to him after seven years. In 2007, he finally listened to his daughter, Gina, who’d worked for the company’s franchisors and kept telling her parents that it was a solid idea for a business. She first convinced her mother. “And they ganged up on me,” Nardello laughs. Other than when he was a kid working in a pizzeria and thought he’d maybe one day own one of his own, he never gave entrepreneurship a thought. Nardello is a maintenance manager, which is his full-time job, despite that the salon is doing rather well, he says. Vickie is a retired home health aide who runs the day-to-day of

the business while Nardello does the books and recordkeeping. Gina works for them once a month or so, helping her parents train new employees, but Nardello says she lives too far from Bordentown to make going there every day worth it. Nardello says Hollywood Tans Bordentown, located on Route 130 just outside Fieldsboro, boasts the cleanest tanning facilities in the region, partly due to the salon’s standing tanning stations. The salon has lie-down beds too, but standing tans are a popular endeavor. Nardello says that in general, standing tans are more sanitary than tanning in beds, but the big draw for standing is no pinch points. In other words, if you’re lying down and your skin folds, you’ll get a discoloration. Even for avid fans of lying down, Nardello recommends a standing tan every few goes to help keep skin tone even. Spray tans are, of course, a major draw for those who want to look bronzed but not subject themselves to UV light. Nardello says they’re becoming more popular as more people become concerned over the longterm effects of frequent tanning. Spray or traditional indoor tan, there are perks to membership at Hollywood Tans Bordentown. Members get lotions at 10 to 15 percent off, and if they buy four, they get a bottle free. Same goes for tanning sessions. And, if you’re in a bridal party and all members of the party tan, the bride tans free. And it’s all air-conditioned, so you don’t have to sweat through a tan. It’s all part of the Nardellos’ effort to keep customers happy, which Tony says is his favorite thing about running the business. “You see smiling people and it’s good to know we did that,” he says. Hollywood Tans Bordentown is located at 271 Dunns Mill Road in Bordentown. Phone: (609) 298-3302. On the Web: hollywoodtansbordentown.com.

SPORTS

Lifeguards return to their roots at CDA swimming club By Kyle Kondor Lisa Brown began taking swimming lessons and water safety classes at the Community District Alliance swimming club in Bordentown when she was 5-years-old. Brown struggled in the swimming pool early on. In fact, it took her three years to complete the program’s first level of difficulty. “I didn’t even want to get my face wet at first,” Brown said. “It took a long time for me to get through the beginner level but once I did I just never stopped.” Now, at 38, Brown is the program’s head Water Safety Instructor and she is one of two qualified Lifeguard Instructors at the swim club. After working as a lifeguard for three years, Brown received her certification to teach water safety at 18, when first eligible, and her lifeguard teaching certification at 25. The CDA swim club was founded by director Dr. Sally Fisher in 1962, and now takes place at the Southgate Apartments on Ward Avenue for four and a half weeks — from the end of June through all of July. This year’s club consisted of about 260 students between the ages of 4 to 15. Each day during the week from

CDA swim instructors Lisa Brown and Joe Knox cheer on swimmers at the annual swim races July 22, 2014. (Photo by Kyle Kondor.) 8 a.m. to noon, kids take to the pool to learn new swimming techniques and safety skills. “We don’t just teach swimming. We teach swimming and water safety skills and that

way the kids have the opportunity to enjoy swimming as well as save their life if they ever needed to,” Fisher, 76, said. Like Brown did when she was a child, each

kid starts the program hoping to complete the six levels of difficulty that prepare you to become an advanced swimmer. The program is run through American Red Cross. Brown teaches the higher level courses. Her brother-in-law, Joe Knox, teaches the intermediate level, and sister Kristie Knox teaches the lower level. Once children have accomplished the skills necessary to complete a specific level, they move on to the next. It typically takes one year per level, sometimes more. The first two levels take place in the low end of the pool where the water sits just three feet from the ground. Here they are taught simple skills such as treading water, kicking their feet, and using “big arms.” Levels three to six take place in the deep end where the surface of the pool lies nine feet below the water. Here they are taught much more advanced skills such as treading water with no hands, swimming 300 yards without stopping, and diving to the bottom of the pool and moving 10-pound bricks from the deep end to the low end. On July 22, the club hosted its annual swim races. On the last Monday of the program, almost every kid who participated

She is the other qualified lifeguard instructor at the pool and she stresses the importance of completing the program. “I like to get a lot of these children to have the swimming skills that I have so they can use it as a life span sport,” Fisher said. “If you’re a very strong self-taught swimmer than you could become a lifeguard without having gone through the levels, but it’s very difficult.” The program offers American Red Cross lifeguard training each Monday from 1-5 p.m. to people ages 15 and older. The students taking this course are also to take three 4-hour classes taught by Lisa Brown at Bordentown Regional High School. The indoor class teaches aspiring lifeguards first AID training as well as CPR and AED. It also requires you to pass a written test as well as a practical test in the pool. This type of course is necessary for anyone trying to receive a lifeguard certification that must be renewed every three years. About 12 students per year complete the course through the CDA swim club in Bordentown. “The stuff they have to complete is not easy. It’s a demanding class,” Fisher said. “Sometimes they’ll complete level 6 twice before taking the class just to assure that they’re capable of passing” On any given day, there are eight lifeguards on duty during the CDA club’s water safety training. There is typically one life guard per two students in the pool as well as all of the instructors. Throughout the 30-plus years that Fisher has been director of the club, she has only hired lifeguards that completed her water safety program. She assures each of her students that they are guaranteed a job as soon as they finish the program and receive the necessary qualifications. “We like to know the caliber of the person and know that they have the lifeguarding

skills we want them to have because they’ve done it in our program,” Fisher said. Andrew Castagna, a 17-year-old Steinert High School student, began taking courses at the club when he was 13, and has been lifeguarding there since he was 15. “I feel that without this program I wouldn’t have been able to become a lifeguard and I wouldn’t have learned the skills I need to know how to swim,” Castagna said. At the club, Castagna helps train young swimmers and completes usual lifeguard duties such as cleaning the pool and overseeing the daily activities. “I enjoy doing this,” Castagna said. “Until my life takes me somewhere else, this is where I’ll be for the rest of my summers.” Castagna works about 60 hours per summer at the swim club and he hadn’t had to “make a save” until the fourth week of this year’s program. “The boy swallowed water and panicked so he began to go under water, so I jumped in and saved him,” Castagna said. “It was different because I wasn’t expecting it. I’m glad that the abilities I’ve gained throughout my years as a lifeguard allowed me to help out.” Fisher could only recollect one occurance in which a student went unconscious during her many years running the program. Twenty years ago, one of her students had a seizure while trying to swim three body lengths under water before rising above. She saw him try to grab for the wall and fail. “Of course I was in the water immediately and went and got him. We gave him two breaths and he was breathing again,” Fisher said. “It was taken care of so quickly that not many people even noticed what had happened. It was totally unexpected and that was the most serious thing I’ve ever seen or gone through.” Fisher is thankful that to this day her club has been operated smoothly. “I like how this program is run,” Lisa Brown said. “Dr. Fisher does a great job. She knows everyone at the club and takes pride in all of her employees.”
