Editor’s note: This edition of the New Jersey Conservation Foundation’s weekly column was written by Jay Watson, co-executive director. If you’re like many New Jerseyans, you probably haven’t given much thought to squirrels, except maybe wondering how to keep them out of your birdfeeders. They’re so common in every New Jersey community – rural, suburban and urban – that a lot of people don’t give them a second glance. But these cute, charismatic critters do have a fan base, especially in Princeton, where squirrels with unusual all-black coloring are the unofficial mascot of Princeton University. (The official college mascot, the tiger, is certainly more fearsome … though a team called the Black Squirrels would be cool!) And if you’re a fan of oak trees and forests, you should also be a fan of squirrels, since they play an important role in helping spread oaks by carrying and burying acorns away from the parent trees. There are even scientists who study squirrels and their behaviors. In case you’re wondering, the science of studying squirrels is called “sciuridology,” and one of the nation’s prominent sciuridologists is Dr. Karen Munroe of Baldwin Wallace University in Ohio. In a recent podcast, Munroe shared her love for squirrels and discussed their lives and behaviors with host Alie Ward, whose show U.S. 1 WELCOMES letters to the editor, corrections, and criticisms.

place every night! As their name indicates, Eastern gray squirrels are native to the eastern United States and Canada. But Munroe notes that they have been introduced to other parts of North America and even Europe, where they’re considered invasive. In addition to Eastern gray squirrels, New Jersey’s squirrels include American red squirrels, which are smaller than grays and a rusty brown in color; and Southern flying squirrels, whose loose folds of skin between their front and rear legs form a parachute that allows them to glide from branch to branch. This state we’re in may also have smaller populations of Northern flying squirrels and fox squirrels. Seeing a squirrel in your yard or neighborhood park may not be as much of a thrill as spotting a coyote, fox or bobcat, but they’re part of nature and valuable to our ecosystems. “We really do have squirrels to thank for most of our trees and mature hardwood forests,” says Munroe. They are entertaining little acrobats that are just trying to make it through the winter. Look around at the beautiful oak trees in your community and think of the diverse habitat they provide for all sorts of insects and birds. You might give your squirrels a break this winter at your birdfeeder! To learn more about squirrels, listen to Munroe and Ward’s sciuridology podcast, at www.alieward. com/ologies/sciuridology.

Survival Guide Hughes Reflects on Two Decades As County Executive

or the first time in two decades, long-time Mercer County Executive Brian Hughes won’t be sitting behind the desk of the county’s top administrative elected official. Former Assemblyman Dan Benson — a Democrat who was overwhelmingly elected in November over Republican Lisa Richford — will be sworn in at the county’s annual reorganization meeting, which takes place at the Trenton War Memorial on Thursday, January 4, at 6 p.m. Hughes, who was not chosen to run again in favor of Benson during the Mercer Democratic Party Convention last March, will be looking to move on to greener pastures after many years in elected office. When asked in a recent interview with Community News Service about what Benson’s biggest challenge will be, Hughes joked: “Removing all the Brian Hughes signs from across the county.” Many of those signs highlight Hughes’ accomplishments during his years as county executive. His achievements are many, and they include the revitalization of the Trenton-Mercer (and the approval of a new terminal and parking garage at the site), the preservation of thousands of acres of open space, numerous recreational projects, multiple economic initiatives, and helping to shepherd the county through the COVID-19 pandemic. Hughes, a resident of Princeton, is the son of former governor and N.J. Supreme Court Chief Justice Richard J. Hughes. Before being elected county executive in November 2003, he served two terms on the Board of Chosen Freeholders (now the Board of County Commissioners), first being elected in 1997. Before that, he served as deputy executive director of the Governor’s Council on Alcoholism and Drug Abuse. During his final days in office in December, Hughes spoke with reporter Bill Sanservino about his challenges and accomplishments, as well as his thoughts on future issues confronting the county. An edited version of that interview is presented below in Q&A form. You have spent the last 20 years as Mercer County executive, and more as a public servant. What are your plans for the future? Do you want to continue with some kind of public service? Brian Hughes: Well, I have a couple of irons in the fire, and I think when you believe in public service, it never really ends. My wife works at the Institute for Advanced Study, and she’s been there for about 32 years. Before that she worked at Princeton University. So, she is dedicated to educational service. My son is 24 years old, graduated from Princeton University and is working in public service in Washington, DC. So, I think it’s something that’s in the bloodstream. Working in public service in the future is something that I would certainly be interested in. Can you share some of the things you are pursuing after you leave of-

fice? BH: Well, I have, I think, 34 years working for the State of New Jersey. They just finished figuring out what my pension is going to be, and I believe that if you work for the State of New Jersey for more than $17,500, you put your pension at risk — so I’m not looking for a job with the state or another county government entity. So, with that, I would say it would probably be a public service job with a nonprofit or something of that ilk. I’m sure there’s a lot of charitable organizations and nonprofits that could benefit from your years of experience. BH: Yes, I would think so. I have not formalized what that would be. What are some things the county has done to help businesses and the economics of the region? BH: During the pandemic there were a lot of bills that came out to help small businesses. Right now, we have a small business loan agreement with 0% interest payback, and all they have to do is apply to the County of Mercer. I guarantee you that they will be approved if they show a need — and I think most small businesses will show a need (tinyurl.com/mercerloan). We have made plans through our Department of Economic Development to help businesses—small businesses especially. We developed a special department that is geared towards looking out for African American, Latino and women-owned businesses. That’s up and running and has been providing funding for the last five years. A significant amount of open space has been preserved throughout Mercer County. Can you talk about why you chose to make that a priority and your philosophy on why open space preservation is important? BH: I spent six years as a freeholder (before being elected county executive), and we did some open space projects, but not as many as I think we should have. Right now, I believe 20 percent of Mercer County is open space, and I’m proud of that fact. That open space will live on for our children, our grandchildren and beyond. New Jersey is one of the most congested states in certainly the Northeast, and I think in the country. It needs places where there are open space park activities — wonderful things like the Lawrence-Hopewell Trail. Mercer County has received state and federal approvals to build a new terminal that is four times larger than the existing facility. The project also includes a parking garage for more than 1,000 vehicles. The Federal Aviation Administration has forecasted a 51% increase in flights from Mercer County, rising from 316,665 to 476,507 by the year 2035. The revitalization of the Trenton-Mercer Airport happened during your time as county executive, and now the county is moving ahead with significant improvements there, including a new terminal. There are some people who have been against it, but I think in general, a lot of people are in favor of it. Can you tell me how you helped bring about the revitalization of the airport, and why you think it’s important to the county? BH: The airport that we currently have is crowded. It’s difficult to get your luggage. It’s difficult to use. I’d like to see a brand-new airport. It’s something I’ve been working on for 10 or 15 years. The FAA, being a federal bureaucracy, has been exceedingly slow in granting approvals and giving funding. But the reason that the airport is successful is because we were able

to negotiate with Frontier Airlines. They started very small, and we were able to convince them to expand — and they didn’t need much convincing, because they were making money out of the airport. We were able to give them space, taxiway space, gate space, and the things that they needed to expand the number of destinations that they flew to. When they first started there, they just flew to Florida and back. Now they have several airports that they fly to, and I think that made a difference. I know a lot of people who use that airport, and it’s a significant convenience to be able to fly out of somewhere that’s close to home, instead of having to go to one of the big airports like Newark or Philadelphia and deal with the rigamarole that is involved with flying out of those big airports. I know that significant approvals have been granted, and that the project will be carried through by the Benson Administration, but can you give us an idea of what you think the timeline will be to get shovels in the dirt and see construction started there? BH: I think we could probably do it within a year or even sooner. There needs to be a parking garage built, there needs to be a new terminal built, a terminal that has checkways — which we don’t have now — that would provide better access for people who are handicapped and who need assistance getting on and off a plane. There are a lot of things that I think could happen very quickly, but that’s going to be up to the next administration. Based on what you’ve seen, once things finally do get started, what are the estimates as to how long it would take to get everything finished? BH: What you say is true about Newark, LeGuardia, JFK and Philadelphia. And the prices to fly out of Philadelphia are extremely high. We have plans in place and people should go take a look at it (ttnterminal.com/airport-masterplan). There is a design build plan already made, so all it takes is money and the will to do it. I believe the FAA is in a position now that they are willing and able to assist regional airports more than ever, so you could probably do it sooner rather than later. In 2021, Congress and President Biden approved the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law that included money for airport improvements. Do you know if any funds have been earmarked for smaller airports like Trenton? BH: I don’t have figures to give

you right now, but I do believe that money was set aside for smaller regional airports. Now, you hear stories all the time about smaller regional airports in places like Kansas and Arkansas closing down because their federal funding ran out, but I don’t think that’s the case in Trenton. We draw from Monmouth County, Somerset County. Believe it or not, even though we get some noise complaints from Pennsylvania, we get a lot of customers from there as well. We have signed a contract with Frontier Airlines that is good for another five to seven years. I don’t have it in front of me, but they’re willing to make an investment in Trenton, and we are willing to make an investment in them. When it comes to land use, the currently demand is for warehouses, and developers are planning to build warehouses on commercially zoned tracts thought the county (and state for that matter). For example, there’s the Bridge Point 8 plan in West Windsor that was approved for 5.5 million square feet of warehouse space. What are your thoughts on the proliferation of warehouse developments? BH: I think the warehouses like the Amazon one in Robbinsville were well placed, because they are less than a mile from an interstate highway, which would take them south to distribution centers down there, north on Route 295, Route 1, and many other places. I think it’s a mistake — and quite frankly, I’ve told the mayor of West Windsor that it’s a mistake — to build all those warehouses on Route 1. It will tie up traffic for years to come. The trucks and traffic going there are going to have a greater impact on Route 1 and surrounding communities more than on West Windsor. They will see the tax benefit from the development, but it’s going to be a burden on the rest of the county, and I don’t really think that’s fair. Like I said, I’ve given my opinion to the mayor of West Windsor and to council members, and I guess they’re going to do what they want to do. Our planning board has some final decisions to make, but by law our scope is limited to things like water runoff. We’re not able to say, “You can’t build warehouses.” I wish we were, because I’d say, “You’re not able to go to build a warehouse there.” So that’s it. That’s a disappointment that the next administration is going to have to deal with. And it’s not only West Windsor. I think almost every single town has some kind of big warehouse that it

Brian Hughes greeting passengers at Trenton Mercer Airport. has approved or that they’re looking at approving. Do you have any concern that they’re going to overbuild and then wind up with a bunch of warehouses that are sitting empty? BH: I do. Amazon, which is one of the biggest companies in the world, is downsizing their warehouses to make them more efficient. Why some of the towns in this state — and particularly Mercer County — would approve more warehouses is beyond me. I suppose they want to build warehouses because they don’t want to build houses. And they don’t want to build houses because they don’t want to add kids to the schools. Well, the fact of the matter is that kids are going to keep coming whether you like it or not. And you’re going to have to build schools and pay teachers and buy lunches and do all the things you have to do, but that’s part of growth. There’s a new round of affordable housing to be added after 2025, and that’s going to force communities to provide for more affordable units, whether they want to or not. What is the difference between the way that the county looks at development as opposed to the way a municipality looks at it? BH: I think county officials ought to work with municipalities and help them plan. We’ve got a great planning department here in Mercer County, whether it stays together (in the next administration), I don’t know. I hear the next administration appreciates the work of our planning department. I live in Princeton, and Princeton began planning for their new obligations for housing, I believe, about two years ago, and they made investments where they needed to in new schools, and new structures, and where a new school could go. Some towns throughout the state have done nothing — it’s not just in Mercer County. They know the beast is out there, but they’re putting off doing significant planning for the day when they are going to be compelled to do more affordable housing. I just don’t see much planning going on. I think that’s probably the case with most towns. They’re just kind of burying their head in the sand and not dealing with it until the Continued on page 11

Princeton Adult School Celebrates 85 Years

by Patricia A. Taylor

hirty years ago, in the summer of 1993, Anne Brener received an urgent phone call from Nancy Beck. Beck, a board member of the Princeton Adult School (PAS), told Brener that the school’s part-time administrator had just left and someone was needed to fill in the slot. Brener, a Princeton resident who had served on numerous nonprofit boards but never in an administrative position, asked what would be required. “Well for now,” Brener recalls Beck telling her, “You’ll need to check the mail three times a week and don’t worry about anything until September.” Brener took the job. That September 86 courses were offered, and registration was primarily done by the volunteer board. There was no office computer to ease the work involved in recording and sorting the approximately 1,000 paper slips coming in through the mail. That’s where the newly created administrative position originally came in. It had proved its worth the year before Brener came on board, and under her leadership as executive director has become crucial to the organization’s expanded and modernized existence. As Brener sharpened her administrative skills, she came to deeply appreciate and to be thankful that she was involved with the school and its board. It is the PAS board, she emphatically states in giving credit where she thinks it due, that sets this nonprofit apart from all other organizations. She calls it the academy award of boards. The 36 volunteer members not only create courses but also seek out and convince experts to teach them. This current academic year, the Princeton Adult School is offering almost 300 courses to about 5,000 students. It is larger than many a small college and much larger than Princeton High School in terms of students and courses — but definitely not in terms of the four part-time, paid administrative staff. Brener cannot help exclaiming over the uniqueness that applies to this community resource. She

notes that there are probably no more than two other such independent entities in New Jersey. Those communities that do offer adult education — and fewer do so with each passing year — are generally under the aegis of local boards of education. And, Brener firmly believes, no other volunteer organization boasts members who have the connections and willingness to donate both expertise and time to create such a multitude of offerings. That volunteer, independent concept goes back to the founding of PAS. As described on the organization’s website: “In January 1939, two local women, Ruth Schleifer and Laura Peskin, took their hopes for a ‘leisure hour school’ from idea to reality. With the support and encouragement of B. Woodhull Davis, Supervising Principal of the Princeton Public Schools, Harold Dodds, President of Princeton University and John Mackay, President of the Princeton Theological Seminary, Princeton Adult School was born. Its purpose as stated in the bylaws, was ‘…to offer each year to the adult residents of the Princeton area — regardless of race, color, creed, place of national origin, or sex — a variety of educational courses for their benefit and enjoyment.’”

he website continues: “On January 16, 1939 — the first evening of classes — 500 people had registered for the 20 classes offered on Tuesday nights in the public school. Difficult economic times and a world on the brink of war were reflected in the course offerings. The first lecture series was called ‘World Politics.’ Courses in literature, music, art, and French were joined by classes in boiler repair, dressmaking, typing, and modern homemaking.” Courses in literature, music, art, and French remain offered to this day. Given the increasingly cosmopolitan nature of the Princeton area, language courses have expanded to include Chinese, German, Italian, Japanese, Russian, Span-

ish, and even sign language. A subject not even thought of in 1939 but now with the highest enrollment concentrates on English Language Learning (ELL). Eleven courses, from “Beginner Level” to “Advanced Conversation” are offered in what was formerly known as English as a Second Language (ESL). Boiler repair is no longer featured in the catalogue, but “Wood Working,” “Digitizing Your Analog Files,” and “Introduction to Glassblowing” are. Modern homemaking appears under the guise of Food and Drink, where one can learn about beer tasting at the Ivy Inn, “Indian Vegetarian Cooking,” “Holiday Cookie Making,” or even join chefs from Blue Point Grill in making some of the most popular menu items at the restaurant. The lecture series, now named in honor of the late Claire R. Jacobus, “a worker bee and former board president,” notes Brener, has been a component throughout the PAS history. Whereas the first lecture series dealt with world politics, the spring 2024 series covers another form of politics in that it highlights power and its destructive forms in our society and the world. While the numbers of students and classes have steadily and smoothly expanded since the adult

Anne Brener joined Princeton Adult School in 1983 as a part-time administrator and is now its executive director, preparing for the organization’s 2024 course offerings. school first opened 85 years ago, COVID’s appearance resulted in a striking and permanent change. On March 4, 2020, New Jersey’s first confirmed COVID case was reported. The PAS board, having already started work on courses for fall 2020, quickly recognized that an innovative approach was needed to ensure the continuity of the school. Enter Debbie Washington, director of operations. Four months after that first official COVID appearance, she had converted all courses — including those still being nailed down in June — into a Zoom format for the fall 2020 session. Thousands of students responded and so did the instructors. The response was so favorable that a significant portion of classes are now offered via this format. It has allowed PAS to greatly expand the geographical area of its reach for both students and instructors. While the bulk of the in-person classes remain at Princeton High School on Tuesday evenings, the virtual courses are held on many different days. Lilianne Youssef has now joined the staff as office assistant to help those registering for and signing in to Zoom-based classes. And with funds coming in through registration and donations and going out for expenses such as security, insurance, rent, and instructor payments, Nicole Solarek handles the necessary accounting duties. Some things, however, have remained constant over the decades.

Brener still finds herself opening letters. Though about 90 percent of course registration is handled online, some students feel more comfortable using the paper form on the inside back page of the catalogue. Under Brener‘s supervision, course catalogues are produced yearly — in both paper and digital formats. Thousands of printed copies of the Spring 2024 catalogue will soon be in the mail and sent to residents in Princeton and the greater Princeton area (about 30 percent of PAS students have come from outside Princeton over the past decades). The cover, highlighting the organization’s 85th anniversary, is designed by Sofia Schreiber, Princeton High School class of 2021. “We always try to get a PHS student, grad, or local teacher to create for us,” Brener notes. The Spring 2024 catalogue goes online in conjunction with the paper mailing. Prospective students can view either one to select and then register for one or more classes offered this spring. Some classes fill up quickly, and there is a waitlist button on the website (but not available in the print format). Credit cards are only accepted for online registration. For any further questions or assistance, call 609-683-1101. The exceedingly personable Brener would probably appreciate a break from opening paper registration forms.

Ellarslie Exhibit Takes Inspiration from the Future

he Trenton Museum Society at the Trenton City Museum at Ellarslie continues to commemorate its 50th anniversary with “NEXT: Reimagining the Future Through Art.” Currently on view through February 11, the exhibition features 40 artworks by 30 artists. A curators’ talk takes place Saturday, January 6, from 1 to 4 p.m., and a virtual artists’ talk takes place Sunday, January 21, from 2 to 4 p.m. In the following statements, the exhibition’s two curators, TMS trustees Diane Ciccone and Mary Malloy, talk about the heart of the project and their ongoing collaboration. As Ciccone — a Princeton Junction-based administrative judge, past council West Windsor Council member, and filmmaker — writes: “My vision with our third exhibition, NEXT, involves reimagining the future through art, specifically within the walls of Ellarslie Mansion. What barriers do we need to shatter? What stories do we need to hear? What artists have never shown here? It was natural to unite local and global artists for this exhibition as we begin to unravel what is NEXT. In this exhibition, I was interested in how others saw the future and how that was manifested through their art. In the last few years, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the world and ignited new ways of co-existing. We have navigated a pandemic, two wars, gun violence, and racial violence — all while the wealthy get wealthier, the political become more political, and the divide between the haves and the have-nots deepens. So, I was really fascinated to see how the artists interpreted reimagining the future. Artists such as ryo kajitani use their art as an opportunity to express and to communicate how they have changed and how their change has affected those around them or how Robin Brownfield and her art really looked at the political climate. “We also wanted to challenge the way the museum has done things in the past. So, NEXT was opened to anyone anywhere in the world. Therefore, we are proud to welcome international entries for the first time to the Trenton City Museum — the furthest hailing from Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and Germany. We also have domestic entries from places such as Tennessee, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. We are also pleased that, for the first time at the Trenton City Museum, NEXT welcomes video located in the Thomas A. Malloy Gallery. It is most fitting that the videos be hosted in the Malloy gallery because Tom Malloy, a giant in the art world, specifically in his Trenton

community, believed that artistic concepts must be challenged in order to grow.” Trenton resident Jane Malloy — a foreign affairs analyst in New York City who is involved with several Trenton nonprofits involving youth and is a niece of the late Trenton artist Thomas Malloy — notes: “I am especially proud of how NEXT pushed beyond the traditional mediums of art and included out of-the-box artistry that has never been exhibited in Ellarslie Mansion. This includes welcoming spoken word and performance art as part of the exhibition. Having coordinated the Trenton Museum Society’s Freedom Friday Open Mic the last Friday of every month for four years, I am hyped that we will move art from the wall to the mic in February as an extension of this exhibition.

I’m not here to own this, but I’m here to do something; I wanted to preserve it.” When the overgrown woods at the back of her land prevented her from exploring the entire property, she cleared paths through the woods that are lined with layers of intertwined fallen branches. She decorates them with cairns of beautiful stones from the property and items that give meaning to different areas. Blue wind chimes pay homage to her dad, a jazz musician, who formed “The Indigos” jazz band at East Brunswick High School. “The trails are my art,” De Carolis says. “I tune myself with the trees, where they would like to take me. I don’t knock anything down, but I may remove anything invasive. I want to showcase the trees.” The trails, she adds, “became a mission to share it with people, not just me.” Not only does De Carolis’s vision for the land encompass future visitors to her property, but also demands that she engage with its human history, revealed to her by artifacts like farm machinery, stones, building foundations, and grapevines—as well as by some more unexpected signs of human habitation. She learned from a former occupant of her property that part of her current house was once a speakeasy, moved from its original setting near the Millstone River. De Carolis herself discovered a historic grave and later found a possible connection between that and the speakeasy. Noticing something white with an interesting shape near her garage, she investigated and found the fallen headstone of “Little Anna, daughter of Richard and Lucretia Crater, died Sep. 7, 1856, aged 1 year and 1 mos.” Later she learned that Little Anna’s father was a keeper of Jack, an alcoholic beverage — and she wondered whether that might in some way have connected to the speakeasy. Curious about possible Native American use of the land, De Carolis invited archeologist Michael Stewart, emeritus professor at Temple University, about a decade ago to bring his students to dig on the property. Although he was unable to make definitive claims about who had lived there, his team did find flakes of materials from the production and maintenance of stone tools as well as a fragment of a soapstone bowl, suggesting nomadic hunter gatherers in prehistoric times.

e Carolis was born at Princeton Hospital, spent her earlier childhood in Hopewell, and then moved to East Brunswick, where she attended middle and high school. Her father, a Buffalo native, formed his own big band orchestra at age 13 and had planned a career as a musician. After losing his leg at age 18 during World War II, he switched to music therapy and music education. Her mother’s creativity leaned

more toward designing inside spaces and creating affordable, yet smart outfits for her customers at Loehmann’s department store. The arts have always played a role in De Carolis’s life, starting as a youngster with needlepoint and drawing, then crafts, and finally to sculpture, which she pursued at Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia. But, she says, “I realized that as much as I loved the arts, I knew arts weren’t going to sustain me financially.” She decided on social work, inspired by two volunteer gigs, one doing art therapy with Vietnam veterans and another working with coal-mining families. In her junior year she transferred to Newark State, now Kean University, where she did a double major in social work and fine arts and a minor in English, and she got teaching certification for both English and art education. After graduating, she spent nearly a decade doing counseling in private centers, eventually earning a master’s in social work in a one-year advanced standing program at Rutgers University. Subsequently, De Carolis held a variety of positions, as director of residence life at Westminster Choir College, as a psychotherapist for a family counseling service, and as a school counselor at Princeton Day School. But her work at Trenton High School — from 1992 to 1996 under a state grant to the Institute for the Family to provide family counseling to students and their families — stands out as reflecting the intertwining of values so important in her personal and work life. She brought to her student clients an approach she had devel-

oped with her therapy clients. “I consider what I do feng shui of the mind,” she explains, meaning that she works with her clients to create calm, support, and peace in their lives. She would encourage her students to pursue whatever they liked to do, often music, art, or poetry. “They wrote poems and stories, created drawings, and I was overwhelmed by the talent that was there that they didn’t even realize,” she says. “I helped them nurture that talent to give them pride and self-confidence to help them work on other issues in their lives.” ”My passion is for bringing beauty into the world and beauty into the lives of each individual, and for them to see in themselves the beauty that I see in them,” DeCarolis says. Today she has a private practice doing individual, couples, and family therapy.

llen Rebarber grew up on a chicken farm in Piscataway. Her earliest efforts in sculpture were at age 5 or 6 when she used clay she dug out from the Raritan River’s banks to make little pots for her dog and cat. But art classes did not come until much later. After graduating from New Brunswick High School and, in 1953, Newark State Teachers College, she taught elementary school for three years in Highland Park, New Jersey, raised her kids, and then taught again for 32 more years. Her first art classes came about via a suggestion from her mother. One day her mom rang her doorbell and found a weeping daughter, completely frustrated by staying home with her sick children in the

middle of winter. Her mother insisted that she sign up for a weekly class and offered to babysit for her grandchildren. For a decade Rebarber studied at the Y in Highland Park with American painter and sculptor George Segal. “He taught me how to see,” she recalls. After she retired in 1998, Rebarber knew that she wanted to learn to make three-dimensional large sculpture. First, she audited a class at Middlesex County Community College, but after two years topped out and moved on to the Mason Gross School of the Arts at Rutgers. Rudolph Serra, her first teacher, taught her to use both wood and metal; the students would first create small models and he would push them to make the final version “really big.” And indeed that’s what Rebarber did: “I remember being on a 15-foot ladder, welding. That was the best time of my life.” It was in Serra’s class that she created the three sculptures that De Carolis saved; they were initially displayed in her front yard in Highland Park. One day the developer of a property in Princeton Junction rang her doorbell and said to her, “I like your sculptures — did your husband make them?” When she said they were hers, he asked how much she would sell them for. She consulted with Serra, who suggested a substantial price, and ended up quite satisfied to get nearly 90 percent of her asking price.

Benevenia has both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in fine arts. When Baltimore was locked down in 2015 after Freddie Gray was killed by police, Benevenia happened to visit the National Museum of Civil War Medicine in Frederick, Maryland, where he was particularly moved by the prosthetic arms and legs. He began thinking about the present repercussions of the Civil War and what is still missing from our country, and he started to create sculpture inspired by those ideas. He and Megan Uhaze Wear, both from the Johnson Atelier, went to see the three sculptures after they got word that De Carolis was looking for a sculptor to help her out. “Seeing the sculpture made out of kind of surrogate ladders intrigued me,” Benevenia says. He also felt drawn to the project after learning that Yvonne’s father had lost his leg in the war. As for Rebarber, she couldn’t be happier with her sculptures’ new home, as well as her budding friendship with De Carolis. “She rejuvenated the sculptures and they look so amazing! I am so proud to have my sculptures there with Yvonne, where they have a new life!”

ercer Street Friends, a nonprofit whose mission supports local families through comprehensive food and education programs, opened a Choice Food Pantry at Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School, the second of three planned in the Trenton School District, in December, 2023. With the goal of expanding resources currently offered through the Mercer Street Friends Community Schools program, a school-based food pantry helps to address food gaps, nutrition concerns, and stress, for school children and their families. A key differentiator for schoolbased pantries is that they are open to the entire school community – where everyone is encouraged to attend. People who might otherwise feel uneasy visiting a food pantry often feel more comfortable in a familiar school setting. “By adding food pantries to our Community Schools, we are able to provide direct support to families,” said Bernie Flynn, Mercer Street Friends CEO. “Food insecurity is ongoing for school families in our area and convenience and consistency are critical. We aim to remove the barriers that cause families to have to make difficult choices around basic needs.” Flynn says the central location of Dr. MLK Jr. Middle School makes it a natural hub for serving the school community. “We anticipate this being a busy pantry. We’ve taken the learnings from our resource center at Gregory and hit the ground running here at the middle school.” The food pantry is part of the

organization’s Family Resource Center concept located onsite in Community Schools offering families access to a multitude of resources conveniently located in their child’s school. Assistance with SNAP benefits (formerly known as food stamps), housing, immigration, legal, parenting, adult education, mental health are just some of the services. There is a dedicated technology room with laptops, printers, fax machines, and office supplies, all provided by Mercer Street Friends. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Middle School principal Victor Farnath remarked on the significant milestone: “Through this initiative, we aim to eradicate food insecurity and ensure that no child or family goes hungry. We are truly grateful for Mercer Street Friends and the dedication they have to our school. They have been able to provide our students and parents access to counseling services, create attendance initiatives, and provide weekend food for all our students so they don’t go hungry.” Hope Grant, assistant superintendent of secondary education for Trenton Public Schools expressed the district’s gratitude. “We are just so thankful for our partnership with Mercer Street Friends. This is a start of a movement to eradicate the thought, the feeling, and the words of ‘I’m hungry’ from any student. Earlier this fall Benjamin C. Gregory Elementary was the first location for a school-based pantry. “Within the past few months, the cost of food has soared making it increasingly difficult for many of our parents to feed their families. Thankfully, the food pantry has been able to stand in the gap,” said Gregory School principal Jeanette Harris. “Since its inception, we have been able to provide food for 53 families on a regular basis. That

number does not include the 100 food baskets that were distributed for Thanksgiving. The food pantry has made a significant impact on our school community and has served a wonderful resource for our children and their families.” The convenience of an inschool food pantry is a gamechanger for families, especially for the Gregory school community whose closest supermarket is a 40-minute walk. Choice, frequency, and breadth of offerings are other benefits. Bernadette Trapp, director of community schools at Mercer Street Friends says her team consistently receives positive feedback on the “choice” model for the pantry. “Families appreciate the option to self-select from the pantry. Because parents are encouraged to visit weekly, we’ve noticed a trend that people only take what they need, when they need it, knowing they are welcome to return the following week.” An unexpected, though not surprising, benefit of the schoolbased food pantry is kindness. “We are building a beautiful community of neighbors helping neighbors,” said Trapp. “We have teachers donating to the pantry and parents paying it forward by bringing formula and other items to pass along to anyone who might need it.” Mercer Street Friends will open a third Family Resource Center in early 2024 at Luis Muñoz-Rivera Elementary. Mercer Street Friends Community Schools initiative provides elementary level reading intervention programs and other educational opportunities in addition to social, emotional, physical, and mental health support to students and families year-round, including summer programming.

time comes. A lot of them had trouble even meeting their current requirements. Affordable housing is becoming increasingly an issue, because of the prices of housing, a lot of people just can’t afford it, especially the Millennials and Gen Z. They’re graduating from college and they can’t afford a house. BH: But I mean, even the affordable housing is not that affordable. If you’re just coming out of college and maybe you have or you don’t have a college loan, an affordable house at $400,000 or more isn’t that affordable. So, people are going to have to think a lot more about realistically priced apartments that people can afford in the first year or two out of either high school, vocational school, or college. Some towns have approved a lot of apartments in recent years, but they’re what’s being called “luxury apartments,” and they’re not that affordable either. BH: We could go back all the way to where we started this conversation. Why did I make open space a priority? It’s because it kind of forces the hand of municipalities to realize their obligation to the upcoming generation. If they want taxpayers in their municipalities, they’re going to have to make their municipalities affordable. Like I said before, I live in Princeton and the affordable housing that they’re building is not that affordable, and I haven’t seen a whole lot of affordable housing being built in Mercer County that’s affordable. So, they’re gonna have to lower the bar a little bit to reach the criteria that the government wants and seeks. And if they don’t make it affordable enough, the courts are going to step in and force them to do it. BH: Right. I think our Supreme Court is going to have a lot of hard decisions to make in the upcoming years. What are some things I haven’t mentioned that you’re particularly proud of? BH: The fact that we were able to keep a cabinet together, for the most part, for close to 20 years. I’m looking at a picture right now, and I think we have 14 people in the picture that started with the administration that are still here. That kind of continuity serves you well. And the other thing I would say are I’ve been proud of is our MCBOSS (the Mercer County Board of Social Services). We stayed open there every single day of the pandemic to provide welfare checks and food stamps and other services that people need. We never

closed down that office one day, and for that, I’m proud. We took a lot of heat during the pandemic. There were criticisms that we didn’t have enough tests fast enough. We didn’t give enough shots fast enough. We were not made one of the counties that had a super site (locations that received large numbers of vaccinations to server the region) and Burlington was. Well, Burlington goes from the Delaware River to the Atlantic Ocean. I did not really mind them being a super site, and we were able to get up and running. We made the CURE Arena (in Trenton) a place for tests and a place for shots. Also, it was a place in Trenton, which I think was important. And we were able to continue working in the suburban areas by having a site at the Mercer County Community College in West Windsor. We did as good as we could with the supplies we had — and there were some weeks when we would get six vaccinations. I’m not talking 60, or six boxes. We would get six vaccinations. It was very tough to tell a town they weren’t getting any vaccinations that week. They asked why not, and we had to tell them that we only got six vaccinations and that’s all. And so, the towns were mad at us. People were mad at us. But I think we did a lot of things right. We changed our goals very quickly. We worked with the Trenton Health team. We changed all of our TRADE buses, which are made to transport senior citizens to doctor’s appointments. I have to congratulate those people, too, because they worked every day. We changed them from taking people to doctor’s offices to delivering food all over the county to senior citizens. So, there were a couple of things I think we did right. But, you know, it was a difficult time. Aside from some of the things you mentioned, what were some of the biggest challenges you faced? BH: Well, I don’t know if you know this or not, but Mercer County has a horse farm on the border of Hopewell and Ewing (Mercer Meadows Equestrian Center). There were a lot of people who wanted us to shut it down. They said, “It’s a waste of money,” or “It doesn’t do the county any good.” But I knew that children with special needs, children who had never been exposed to any type of animal before would be taken — mostly from Trenton — and be exposed and be able to ride a horse for the first time ever. It made such a fantastic difference in their lives. If you could just go out there and see the experience that went on and that goes on—it made a difference to a lot of people. So even though I

would get a lot of letters or complaints about keeping that open, I thought it was important. Mercer County has remained a desirable place to live and for businesses to locate. Why do you feel that that’s the case? BH: I think it’s because we have open space, because we have trails, because we are good government, and because we have municipal governments, and a county a government that cares about the people who come here and who live here. It’s a wonderful place. You’ve got Veterans Park in Hamilton, which the county added 86 acres to. You have Mercer County Park, which is an active park—it has ice skating and softball, and we have people, believe it or not, come out and play cricket there. Those folks stay out there all day long. I don’t know if you ever watched cricket—a game takes like six hours. We have Mercer County Lake. We have a very great passive park in Mercer County Park Northwest. We have golf courses. We have all types of activities that people can enjoy. I think that’s one of the reasons they come here. There’s also the arena and the baseball stadium. BH: Well, the arena and the baseball stadium have been disappointments to me, quite frankly. The arena was built for a skating team that went away. The baseball stadium was built for a baseball team that went away. And while we’re finding alternative uses for them, it’s just not the same as having the revenue, number one, or the excitement and the experience of going to a baseball game or going to a hockey game. There were a lot of people who were disappointed when the Yankees pulled their minor league team out of out of Trenton. BH: I think that’s something that Major League Baseball did. They changed the number of minor league teams from 86 to, I think, 42. Somebody had to go and unfortunately it was us. That doesn’t mean we’re going to stop looking for a Minor League team that’s associated with a Major League Baseball team. Do you have any other thoughts in closing? BH: You know, let me say — I lost (to Benson) at the convention. At first, I was gonna put up a fight. I was going to run in the primary, but then I thought about the party. I thought about where we needed to go. We should have unity rather than division. Ever since I made that decision, people call me up and ask if I’m alright and if I’m feeling okay, and frankly, I feel like the Sword of Da-
