Designing Ewing

School referendum on Oct. 2

Architectural firm responsible for numerous township buildings

District asking voters to approve $55.3M for improvements

By DiccOn Hyatt A building is a work of art without a signature. Occasionally, a structure designed by a big-name architect will gain recognition, but most of the humanmade landscape in which we live is created by people whose names have been lost to history. Trenton’s Ellarslie Museum is rescuing some of this forgotten history by dedicating an exhibit to one of those anonymous designers. The recently museum opened its exhibit on FVHD Architects, a Ewing-based firm that has built so many of the public buildings in Mercer County that not even the firm itself knows exactly how many of its creations are still standing. “Changing Face/Changing Place” is on view through January 13, 2019. Architecture historian Jennifer Leynes spent years combing through old newspaper archives and historical records to find hundreds of examples of FVHD’s work in recognition of its 100th anniversary. FVHD’s work includes the now-abandoned Mercer Hospital in Trenton, Waterfront Park, town halls throughout Mercer County, and, Leynes says, “more schools buildings in the surrounding area than you can count.” When it was founded in 1918 See FVHD, Page 6

Ewing Township voters on Oct. 2 will have the opportunity to cast their ballots on a $55.3 million bond referendum to pay for vital repairs and improvements to township schools. The referendum is for the first major bond issue to be proposed by the district since it built Parkway Elementary School almost 25 years ago. The theme of the referendum Ewing resident Tim McRae hands out an order at his WTF?

around town EARS! General Motors site sold, work begins

Site work has finally started on the old General Motors site on Parkway Avenue, following the sale of the property. RACER Trust announced last month the sale of the property to Parkway Town Center Urban Renewal LLC, an entity created by Atlantic Realty, the developer of the site. The project—a mixed-use development called Ewing Town Center—has experienced numerous delays while RACER completed environmental cleanup of the property. The project, approved by the township planning board in 2016, calls for the construction of 1,184 residential rental units, 94,750 square feet of retail and 14,375 square feet of offices. At least 10 percent of the housing would be set aside for state-mandated low- and moderate-income housing. The approval comes some two decades after General Motors shut down operations on the 80-acre tract, and almost two years after it was originally proposed by Lennar Corp. In early 2014, the Ewing Township Redevelopment Agency approved a concept plan by Lennar to build the town center, but that plan never reached the planning board. Lennar opted to bow out of the deal due to changing market

out the state. The program, known as Direct Install, is offered to improve the energy efficiency of buildings with electricity demand not exceeding 200KW over the past 12 month period. The energy audit is free, and the grant will pay up to 70 percent of the cost of the upgrades approved by BPU. These would include LED lighting, high efficiency HVAC, refrigeration, motors and variable frequency drives. Healthy improvement in the bottom line for your business can be expected. Ewing Township and its Green Team support this program, and will present a Direct Install workshop at the Ewing Senior and Community Center Tuesday, on Oct. 23 at 7p.m. The program is set to feature members of the Ewing Green Team, a representative of the Direct Install contractor, as well as some Ewing business owners who have already completed the program.

funds: Enhancing school security: $290,599. The district plans on adding an additional school security coordinator to the district ranks. This will be the fifth SSC for the district, allowing for one dedicated SSC for each school. This professional position has been in place in the Ewing Schools since 2013, and provides an expert security presence in the schools who also serves as a mentor for students and a resource for the staff. Money will also be allotted for other student safety initiatives, including improvements to the district security technology infrastructure, facility enhancements and procedural approaches to security. Managing class size: $290,599. The board of education and administration have a vision for appropriate class size, and in a statement they said they’re dedicated to ensuring that actual class size is within these parameters. These funds will be used to reach their goal. The first expenditure will be for an additional math teacher for the district, to address a class size issue in the Fisher Middle School math program. The administration will monitor district class size throughout the year, and make adjustments and allocate resources when necessary. See AROUND TOWN, Page 5

conditions and escalating environmental cleanup costs. The original plan was for Lennar to build the for-sale townhouse units and partner with Atlantic Realty to construct the multifamily properties. Atlantic, which primarily builds and manages rental projects, expressed interest in developing the town center after Lennar’s exit, but wanted to develop the residential portion of the site with all rentals. The township worked with Atlantic for about a year to come up with a plan for an all-rental development. The project scheduled to be built in five phases beginning with 164 residential units and community green space. “We are very pleased to have sold this property to a company with demonstrated development success over many decades, and look forward to what is sure to be a transformative project that will provide new housing, job opportunities and other benefits for the community,” said Elliott P. Laws, of EPLET, LLC, administrative trustee of RACER Trust.

AROUND TOWN cont. from Page 3 Expanding student programs: $290,599. These funds will be used to improve, enhance and expand academic, athletic and artistic programs for students. The following areas are initially being targeted by the administration: Adding an additional music teacher at Fisher Middle School. Adding staff to support student’s social, emotional and psychological needs. This would include funding to continue initiatives such as support for student wellness, drug awareness and staff professional development on student psychology. Supporting the growing theater program at Fisher Middle School. Adding an assistant fall cheerleading coach at Ewing High School. Enhancing technology support staff team and approach. Addressing transportation and facility needs: $340,601. Funds will be allotted to address unanticipated transportation needs and expenses related to the extended school year program, athletics and special needs transportation. Furthermore, the district will continue to expand its own inventory of buses and drivers to reduce dependency on outside contractors. The district will also designate revenue for their warehouse inventory control and record keeping initiatives. Several schools have targeted facility work related to improving and enhancing safety. Eliminating the tax increase of the 2018-19 school budget: $402,500. These funds will be used to eliminate the tax increase that was part of the already approved 2018-19 school budget. This will be the second consecutive year that the Ewing school district budget will not include a tax rate increase. Last year, the school tax rate decreased as a result of the district’s disappearing debt. This trend will continue over the next several years, putting the district in a very favorable financial position for the upcoming facility referendum. “It is certainly unusual to have an

increase in state aid that is received in July, but the board and administration worked together to develop a plan for the funds that is beneficial to the district and is respectful to our community,” board president Karen McKeon said. “We are optimistic and hopeful that this favorable financial trend will continue, and the Ewing schools will finally be funded as they should be.”

Trenton YMCA rebrands

One of the area’s oldest non-profit organizations is getting a new name. The Trenton YMCA has announced it has changed its name to the Capital Area YMCA. The organization held an open house on Sept. 15 for people to learn more about its programs and services including dance, fitness, swimming, chess and youth sports. Established in 1856, the Capital Area YMCA has a long history of promoting youth development, healthy living and social responsibility in the city of Trenton, but it has also served residents of neighboring communities like Ewing and Lawrence, as well. Last year’s addition of Camp YMCA at Rider University to the organization’s list of services further reinforced the need for a more accurate brand. “The doors of the YMCA have been open to the entire community regardless of their address since our inception,” said CEO Sam Frisby. “The name ‘Capital Area YMCA’ better reflects the true diversity of our membership and scope of our service area.” The name change coincides with other exciting developments at the YMCA. In addition to changes in signage and print publications, the organization also will have a new web address: capitalymca.org. “I am very proud of where our organization has been in the last 160 years and where we are headed in the future,” Frisby said. “I welcome our neighbors in Ewing, Lawrence, and Trenton as the Capital Area, to find out more about how we are building a strong community here at the YMCA.”

Ewing High School is one of a number of buildings in the township designed by FVHD Architects. Ellarslie Museum in Trenton is holding an exhibition featuring the firm’s designs. FVHD continued from Page 1 the company was called Fowler and Seaman. It has changed names dozens of times over the years, which has complicated efforts to dig up information on it. For its first 50 years the three principal architects remained the same. Percey Fowler died in the late 1930s, and afterwards Albert Micklewright and Samuel Mountford ran it until their retirements in the late 1960s. “That’s a pretty long period of time where they were really active and engaged,” Leynes says. Soon after its establishment, FVHD began to work on large public buildings, usually in well established architectural styles. “I don’t know that they were blazing new ground, but they certainly were building good quality buildings and a huge amount of them have stood the test of time,” she says. “Some are gone, but an awful lot of them are still around.” For example, on Parkway Avenue in Ewing, you can see the new Parkway School, a functional FVHD-designed building, constructed on the site of the old Parkway School, which had also been built by FVHD. The now-demolished GM plant was also designed by them, as is the stillstanding main administration building of the state Department of Transportation. Ewing High School, a single-story brick building whose lone decorative flourish is a simple clocktower, is typical of utilitarian schools constructed as Trenton’s suburbs expanded after World War II. Ewing’s old municipal building (now on the TCNJ campus on Pennington Road) as well as the new municipal building on Jake Garzio Drive were two more FVHD jobs. Though the company was not known for pushing the envelope with wild designs, some of its buildings stand out more than others. A group of schools in Trenton it designed in the 1930s — including Hedgepath Williams School, Stokes School, and Washington School — are examples of the art modern style. FVHD also built Trinity Cathedral and other buildings for the archdiocese

of Trenton in the first half of the 20th century. “They were well known and incredibly profitable,” Leynes says. “They have a wide ranging and very long list of buildings.” Because FVHD no longer has records going back to 1918, Leynes says that there may be others that she was unable to locate. Unlike public buildings, that could be found in newspaper archives, private homes that may have been constructed by FVHD are harder to track down. Leynes believes FVHD had a large influence on the city because it was active during the city’s industrial heyday of the early to mid-20th century. “I think it was a good time to be an architect in Trenton in those early years for sure,” she says. “There was enough work to keep a lot of people busy, and the industrial power of the city at that point certainly drove a lot of it.” FVHD managed to stay afloat through the Great Depression even though building ground to a halt. Mountford was personally involved in the restoration of the historic Trent House during that time. The programs of the New Deal in the late 1930s eventually provided more work, and the postwar suburban boom kept FVHD building schools and public buildings in the suburbs. Leynes grew up outside of Columbia, South Carolina, where her father is an accountant and her mother an office manager. She lived here until she went to graduate school at the University of Georgia. She moved to Trenton 20 years ago along with her husband, a TCNJ professor. She worked as a consultant for the first 17 years in the area, but did a lot of historical research on the side. She is a member of the Trenton Historical Society and serves on the Trenton Landmarks Commission. She particularly enjoys researching buildings. “Most people don’t even think about who’s behind the buildings. To me it’s an interesting avenue of research. It’s interesting to know who was behind the buildings that we know and love that form the built environment that we live in,” Leynes says.

SCHOOLS continued from Page 1 Ewing Observer Editor Bill Sanservino sat down with superintendent Michael Nitti, district business administrator Dennis Nettleton and School Board president Karen McKeon to talk about the referendum. Below is an lightly edited version of the interview. *** Ewing Observer: Can you explain to me the importance of this referendum? Why is necessary and why now? Karen McKeon: Because of the financial timing of it. We’ve had debt that’s dropping off, and we didn’t raise taxes this year, and taxes went down last year. We’ve known that these facility upgrades needed to be done. We wanted to time it so we weren’t continually adding increasing taxes on the community. We wanted to be respectful. So by looking at the numbers, this is the time to do it. Also, these projects that are in the referendum can only receive state fund-

ing through the referendum process. So if we didn’t do the referendum we wouldn’t be getting any backing from state funding. Michael Nitti: I think our theme really embraces what Karen is saying as well: “One Community, One Vision One Goal.” We spent a lot of time thinking with our facilities committee and our board and its goal setting about the next step for the district. We did a couple of detailed demographic reports to see if we had to build on them. We feel like we’re in a good position with our five schools and our one academy. Talking to our stakeholders, the community wants safer schools, they want healthier schools, they want modern schools. In the end, a school is like your house. You have to put money in and take care of it. Make sure it’s a great place for kids to go to school. We met with just about anyone you can think of when it comes to the proj-

ects that are included in this referendum. Stakeholders, parents, groups, unions, our employees and community groups. That’s what we mean by “One Vision,” because everything we put in there is what people want to see in their schools. Some of our neighboring communities, I think, are going to have to go back out (to referendum) in a couple of years. We really feel we can we can do this with this one referendum. We can take our schools, and we can turn them into modern, safer, healthier places for our kids to go to school. EO: So this isn’t a situation where you are asking for money now and then will be asking for more a few years down the road? MN: We truly believe it. That’s why we’re emphasizing the “One Vote.” To set up our schools for the next generation of students. Dennis Nettleton: That’s the pattern of how Ewing has managed these type of projects in the past. Going back, 25 years was the last time we really did one (a referendum) that was building related. For this referendum, we looked at everything. We looked at if we did everything we wanted to do, what we would do, and then we just looked at the things that were the most critical, the most important to be done right now. Your roofing, your HVAC systems, some few critical things that we heard from our constituents and everybody that we talked to. Like parking at the high school being very important, and air conditioning. MN: People want schools with modern heating, and cooling filtration systems. That’s something where there’s been a tremendous change in the last 20 to 25 years. DN: Our air conditioning systems are over 20 years old in a lot of cases, and building automation is a big thing in this referendum. What that essentially means is a programmable thermostat. We can do that in chunks throughout the district now, but there’s some machines where we still have to go up on the roof and fiddle with them to make

changes. By giving our technicians the ability to do it from a laptop or a phone, it changes the game, allows us to save money on energy, allows us to be more efficient, cool the buildings better, getting things that can talk together with technology. It’s a big deal. MN: Karen already talked about the favorable financial factors, including our debt service dropping off. Dennis alludes to these projects that make our schools more sustainable in the future, saving us money because it’d be far more cost effective than what we have now. EO: With Parkway being the last school you built almost 25 years ago, there’s probably not a lot of modern technology in the buildings. DN: In terms of our students and technology, I think certainly we’ve done a nice job. As for infrastructure, another thing we’re focusing on is standardizing equipment. I always like to point at the high school’s boilers. They basically look like a big train engine. The boilers they make today, instead of one or two gigantic boilers like we have now, you’re getting about five or six the size of a hot water heater. Right now I’ve got one type of boiler at this school, a different type of boiler at the other school, so my technicians have to be experts on multiple types of boilers. If we can standardize it, not only can we make our technicians more efficient, we can stock the shelves with repair parts so if we’re down, we’re only down for a couple hours instead of a day or two. KM: (to Nettleton) You’ve been dealing with extremes. One classroom is icecold, and you go two doors down and that one is overheated. DN: Yes, and a lot of times it’s because you have two pieces of competing equipment that can’t talk to each other. By creating one type of backbone architecture—an open system where any piece of equipment can talk to sort of like a control hub—it’s going to make a lot of difference. EO: Karen talked about getting See SCHOOLS, Page 10

SCHOOLS continued from Page 9 state aid to help pay for the improvements. How much state aid are you looking at? DN: They’ve authorized up to 40 percent in debt service aid. That’s about $21.65 million. But again, that’s debt service aid. They’re giving us that money to service the debt. If we were to have saved all of our money, we would be paying the full amount. For example, if we saved it in our capital reserve and then tried to do these projects without bonding them, they would have cost us a lot more. So it is very advantageous to get that state money, because $60 million costs you $39 million. MN: It’s really harder to take care of our buildings now because we have a 2 percent budgetary cap. So to do these type of projects is almost impossible considering the current limitations that we have placed on our school district. EO: So is the debt ser vice completely outside the 2 percent cap? DN: Yes, completely separate. Now one of the fortunate things for us, as Karen mentioned, is that we have that debt dropoff from the older debt. If you add up all the debt dropoffs plus the increase from this referendum, it is a net saving against the 2016-’17 school year on debt service. So people on average will be paying about $185 less for debt service than they did prior. If you just focus on that debt portion of it, basically it’s neutral. KM: We’ve tried to be transparent from the beginning. Going out speaking to community groups and school

groups. We don’t want anyone to be surprised that this is coming. We used the website, we’ve had updates, we used the Observer Good News section. We’ve really tried to get the information out there, and anyone who has asked us to talk to them we have gone to them. MN: It’s really been two years in the planning. EO: What has the district done to involve people in the decision-making process and then get the word out to ever ybody? Because what you don’t want is people turning around and saying “I didn’t know anything about this,” at the last minute. MN: Again, going back to the whole “One Vision” part of our motto, we met with just about anyone, including some well-attended board meetings, to go through the planning process. ® You name a stakeholder and we did our best to meet with them to go through the planning process. Over the past couple of months, we’ve really kicked off our communications campaign. We’ve been at our school functions, an we spoke to community groups. Dennis spoke to the Green Team, and I just spoke to the Fraternal Order of Police. We’ll also have a booth at Ewing Community Day. Obviously social media has been a big part of it as well. We’re trying to get as much as we can. We set up a Facebook account for the referendum. Throughout this whole process, from day one of planning all the way up to Oct. 2, we’ve been trying to be extremely accessible, and visible, and communicate as effectively as we can.

As a hepato-bilio-pancreatic surgeon focused on treating benign digestive conditions and cancers in the liver, pancreas and bile duct, Dr. Doria has pioneered new techniques for conditions that were once considered untreatable. In addition to his cutting-edge clinical work, Dr. Doria has held faculty positions at hospitals in Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Temple University in Philadelphia, PA and the Department of Veteran Affairs Medical Center and the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh in Pittsburgh, PA. His research has appeared in numerous publications and presentations.

Innovative Procedures

liver

Dr. Doria performs these innovative procedures to treat benign conditions and cancers in the liver, pancreas, and bile duct: BLOODLESS LIVER SURGERY: An ultrasonic device suctions out liver cells, immediately followed by a probe that uses hot, sterile water to seal the pancreas liver’s blood vessels upon contact. This bile duct means significantly reduced surgical and recovery times (complete recovery within as little as one month). LIVER AUTO-TRANSPLANTATION: In cases where patients have liver cancer that is too extensive to be removed while the liver is in the body, Dr. Doria and his team can remove the liver, remove the cancer, and reimplant the healthy portion of the organ. ROBOTIC-ASSISTED HEPATOBILIARY SURGERY: With the minimally invasive da Vinci® Surgery System, Dr. Doria uses miniaturized wristed instruments and a high-definition 3D camera that are inserted through small incisions (roughly the size of a dime). Working at the da Vinci® console, Dr. Doria’s hand movements are translated into precise actions that remove cancer in the liver, pancreas and bile duct. These procedures also require less anesthesia than major, open surgery, which means patients are at even less risk for complications. Health Headlines by Capital Health | Ewing Obser ver11

Opioid Recovery Program for Pregnant Women Addresses Issues Highlighted in CDC Report According to a recent report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the number of pregnant women with opioid use disorder (OUD) at labor and delivery increased significantly over a 15-year span covering 1999 to 2014. Based on information from 28 reporting states, the national rate increased from 1.5 per 1,000 in 1994 to 6.5 per 1,000 over the course of the 15-year span. Although New Jersey’s increase (4.1 per 1,000 in 1999 to 5.6 per 1,000 in 2014) was lower than the national rate, the study shows an increasing need to address this destructive epidemic.

In the past year, Capital Health and longtime partners at the Trenton Health Team, the Rescue Mission, HomeFront, and Catholic Charities Diocese of Trenton have offered For My Baby and Me, a grant-based program that provides specialized care for pregnant women and new mothers who are struggling with opioid use disorder. Funded by the New Jersey Department of Health, the program promotes long-term recovery as well as ongoing medical care and support for women and their children. “Opioid use disorder during pregnancy opens the door for many possible negative health outcomes for mothers and their babies,” said Dr. Eric Schwartz, executive director of the Capital Health

Institute for Urban Care. “Our program’s community-based, collaborative approach helps ensure that pregnant women and new mothers with OUD receive the care they need to improve the likelihood of a sustained recovery.” In order to more effectively address OUD in pregnant women, the CDC made several recommendations including: … Implementing universal substance use screening at the first prenatal visit … Ensuring pregnant women with OUD have access to medication-assisted therapy and related addiction services … Making sure mothers with OUD receive adequate patient-centered postpartum care, including mental health and

substance use treatment, relapseprevention programs and family planning services. For My Baby and Me employs a threestep process: … Identify women and children at risk. … Connect them with care providers, including a licensed clinical alcohol and drug counselor, and partners to provide opioid recovery treatment, safe housing, legal services, child care and other support as needed. … Treat patients by providing prenatal care and pediatric care for their children.

in New Jersey to Offer FDA-Approved EMBOTRAP II STENT RETRIEVER for Ischemic Stroke Patients

Capital Health is the first hospital in New Jersey, and among the first in the United States, to use the new EMBOTRAP II Revascularization Device since its recent approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) this summer. As part of its Comprehensive Stroke Center, certified by The Joint Commission, neurosurgeons from Capital Health’s Capital Institute for Neurosciences use this next generation stent-retriever to safely remove a blood clot from an artery in the brain that is causing a stroke. “EMBOTRAP II is the latest advance in mechanical thrombectomy for restoring blood flow to the brain and improving outcomes for patients who are suffering an ischemic stroke as a result of a large blood vessel blockage,” said Dr. Vernard Fennell, a fellowship trained cerebrovascular and endovascular neurosurgeon at Capital Institute for Neurosciences’ Stroke and Cerebrovascular Center. Dr. Fennell was also

involved in some of the initial research on the device’s design. “As one of the tools that we use to treat ischemic stroke, EMBOTRAP II has a design that has been shown to trap clots that are causing the blockage of blood flow in the brain while retaining its shape, making it faster and more effective at retrieving the clot, restoring blood flow to the brain, and ultimately providing a better outcome,” he said. Stroke is a leading cause of disability and the fifth leading cause of death in the United States. Neurosurgeons from the Capital Institute for Neuroscience’s Stroke & Cerebrovascular Center are trained to use state-of-the-art devices such as EMBOTRAP II to provide the most advanced, comprehensive stroke care to patients in Central New Jersey and Eastern Pennsylvania.

WTF? continued from Page 1 summner day and chose from a short menu chock full of tasty comfort treats. From his fried seafood combo reminiscent of the fish platters from the old Trenton landmarks the Shrimp Boat and Speckle Red’s, to fresh special salads using local greens from Pleasant Valley Garlic Farm, he believes in bringing Ewing Township what isn’t readily available everywhere else. McRae talks about the journey that led him to food and why he retired his well known and successful food truck business and opened the WTF? food stand. “Who introduced me to food was obviously my first love, Mama. God bless her soul,” he says. “She’s been dead 21 years. The first thing she taught us was, ‘don’t ever wait on a woman to do something for you. Learn how to cook. Learn how to clean.’ And this was a lady with 10 kids. She always said, ‘you’re not going to be that lazy guy,’” he says. The McRaes originally hail from Dillon, South Carolina, in the heart of rum running territory. After being successful sharecroppers for a few generations, the family got into the bootleg liquor business, creating what McRae calls the best sour mash in the area. Keeping it all in the family, McRae’s aunt Ruby ran the biggest juke joint—or backwoods speakeasy—in Dillon. The family moved to New Jersey in 1953, and in 1954 McRae’s dad entered the janitorial business still as an entrepreneur. He went from janitorial to laundromats in East Trenton and eventually North Trenton, South Trenton and Law-

rence, where he used to run the laundromats in Lawrence Square Village. He brought in his two brothers, one who did heating repair and another who worked in oil, and eventually McRae Oil, along with Sample and Gentry became the three original Black oil companies in Trenton. When he was born, the family lived on Southard Street in North Trenton. In 1973 they moved to the Churchill Greens neighborhood in Ewing. In the years after that, the McRaes went into the carpeting and the landscaping industries, giving Tim so much to draw from when beginning his own entrepreneurial journey. “My first job was at the laundromat. Mopping floors. Cleaning the bathrooms,” he says. “I didn’t start out in the office. I didn’t have a silver spoon in my mouth. I started as a grunt. I would clean the junkie bathrooms. I took the liquor bottles and would throw them out. We had this one guy—an alcoholic named Slim. He always kept his bottles in the toilet tank, and I poured them out one day. Slim was over six feet tall. He came in and I saw this big shadow over me, and I ran between his legs and got out of there. I never messed with Slim’s liquor bottles after that,” he says. McRae always had interest in running the family business, but his dad and uncles never structured it to pass it on. So in 2005 to 2008 he became a direct competitor—opening his own oil business. He, with his wife Lisa, recently fully committed to phasing out of the oil business, however, to go full time into the franchise food business. “I started doing food in my backyard Ph 609.882.0078 Fx 609.882.0709

when we’d party,” Tim says. “My friends would ask me to make something, throw something on the grill and they put the idea in my head to open a food truck. Lisa and I would watch Food Network shows and eventually we said, ‘yeah, let’s start a food truck business.’ So in 2013, we birthed the WTF? food truck,” he says. After that earworm from friends prompted McRae to open the WTF? truck, he started appearing at most of the local outdoor events in the Trenton area—the Jersey Fresh Jam and Art All Night among them. His YouTube videos for the business and his WTF? Instagram ads are hilarious. McRae adds that you need your full supply of humor and patience—his virtues—when dealing with city permits and paperwork. “The city of Trenton is not equipped,” he says. “City Hall gets your permits, tells you when you can vend, and when to shut down—a three-hour window. We were in compliance—we’d vend for three hours and shut it down—but we’d need an hour for the grease to cool off before we could move. It’s not an ice cream truck, so the city would say we were taking too long vending and going against the rules.” “These rules are antiquated,” he says “They haven’t been changed since 1939. I don’t have time to sit in court and fight old vending laws. I’m running a business. Their vending laws are based on carts. There are no more carts. Its all food trucks now. Everything has evolved.” Not that opening the WTF? food stand was without effort. McRae had been fueling up the food truck with propane at

Cifelli’s for five years. When he saw that the food stand space in the lot was vacant, he thought it’d be a great space to open up WTF? He asked Pop Cifelli if he’d let him lease the space and was referred to his son Tony. McRae asked and asked, but it wasn’t until after the new Wawa opened down the road, which took a chunk out of Cifelli’s gas business, that the ball really started rolling. Cifelli realized that after losing some income on gas, it was a nobrainer to rent that empty space to generate more. Now, McRae provides a little something for everybody with his WTF? menu, and not the same food being offered by other shops in the area. “In a two-mile radius there are more than eight places to eat that serve what we don’t,” he says. “Shrimp poboy, you can’t find that in Ewing. General Tso’s wings…we started that. We try and create something different. We change our menu often, and it’s all local. I keep my money in my community. When I go somewhere to shop, I know my dollar has circulated through my community at least six to eight times. From Shop Rite to the farmer’s market to Terry Delahanty at Pleasant Valley Garlic Farm, to City Beef to Dutch’s who does fresh ground meat in Ewing,” he says. When he’s not operating the food stand, with his wife Lisa and with Larry

Laflin, his short order cook, McRae is also a music manager for a few local standout performers. “I’ve been into music since 1988 when we had a rap group called Strong Peeps, me and my nephew,” he says. “We had a single called ‘Living It,’ that Kool G. Rap used on the And-1 mixtape. It took off. That gave me the music bug. Then I was a hype man for my nephew Maurice (Ewing’s Mo Flats), a rapper who’s still going strong, and his daughter Ladibug, who opened up at Levitt Amp last month,” he says. McRae also insists that his newest artist, Ewing’s Jay Vareen, is the missing link in R & B music. He’s the main focus right now as is his niece Ladibug. She’s the one to watch, McRae says. A young Whitney Houston. Her real name is Destiny, which McRae sees as a good omen. What’s next for McRae and his wife Lisa, who’ve been together for 27 years, is to branch out. His twins with Lisa are 22. His oldest son from another relationship is 26. He’s in Virginia, which is why McRae wants to go there next with WTF? “Generational wealth is not taught to us Black folks. It’s taught to every other race and culture. Italians, Chinese, the Jewish…Look at the family structure: three generations in one house. What’s wrong with that? And when other races can come together to do business, that’s

‘We change our menu often, and it’s all local. I keep my money in my community,’ McRae says.

amazing to me. We need to realize we’re all here together. Let’s work together. Let’s support each other,” he says. Working with family and paying it forward is his number one goal in business. It isn’t easy, however. And McRae has a funny way of expressing the frustration from being in the same tiny space with someone, even someone you love. “That’s why we keep plastic forks around,” he says. “You will kill each other in the food industry working together. But we’re tying to franchise. Whether people believe it or not. I want to do my next store in Virginia, with a liquor license, which is cheaper down there,” he says. “And a full stage so I can bring my artists down. We’ll control the food, the music and the liquor. I want to go down the East coast with a series of stores. If you go to Hard Rock, they’re all themed the same. Not with WTF? It’ll always have the Ewing WTF? feel—Ewing dirt is on my DNA—but always a different theme,” he says. No matter how many towns on the East Coast McRae opens a WTF? business, his focus will always be on local, quality produce, on family, and on fun. All the way up until closing time cars pull into the Cifelli’s lot and folks walk up to the window matching McRae’s smile with their own. On each box of food could be a funny quip like, “The grease on the box is always free,” making it impossible to walk away without laughing. The tenets on the sandwich board notwithstanding, his diners seem to understand his motto: “It’s not fast food, it’s fresh food fast,” McRae says.

We have three rooms, each with distinct character and each with an inviting fireplace. Our full bar, including what I call the “Brown Bar,” is an homage to our speakeasy past.” But don’t count summer out just yet. “Diners love our outdoor dining area and we will make summer last as long as possible with multiple fire pits arranged to keep you warm while you enjoy the outside.” “Music at Blooming Grove enlivens your dining experience.

"You are capable of amazing things!"

During afternoon pick-up at the end of a long work day, the last thing many parents might be interested in is indulging their children in extra play time with their friends on the playground. But who can resist a break? As the children play, many parents use the time to socialize or just relax. This year, families can be a bit more comfortable with the addition of four new benches donated by the PTO. The benches not only allow for the resting of weary legs, but are also fitted with mantras or quotes of positivity such as "You are capable of amazing things!" and "Be the reason someone smiles."- supporting mental health and a sense of community. The members of the Antheil PTO encourage families to utilize the benches, and implore all to continue to support events and activities aimed at supplementing and promoting a positive experience for all students and families attending Antheil Elementary School.

Ewing Schools Receives 10K Grant from Special Olympics

The Ewing Schools’ inclusive physical education practices and unified athletic programs have become a model for school districts around the state and country. That point was emphasized once again, as the Ewing Schools are a proud recipient of a $10,000 Play Unified grant from the Special Olympics of New Jersey for the 2018-19 school year. “I am very excited to share that the Unified Champion Schools program is expanding rapidly through the state, in great part due to the trailblazing work and leadership of the Ewing Schools in establishing exemplary, meaningful inclusive opportunities for students,” Special Olympics Director of School and Community Partnerships Susan Colacello wrote in her grant acceptance letter. According to Ms. Colacello, these funds have been made possible by generous support from the U.S. Department of Education, New Jersey

State Department of Education, the PSEG Foundation and TD Charitable Foundation. As a Play Unified Grant recipient school, the Ewing Schools aims to establish our schools as Unified Champion Schools, creating and implementing Inclusive Youth Leadership, Unified Sports and Whole School Engagement activities that promote inclusion, equality, friendships and dignity among students with and without disabilities. Both Ewing High School and Fisher Middle School will be able to use and implement the grant funds. “We were very excited to receive this grant,” Special Education Supervisor David Hauserman commented. “Our goal is to promote the Play Unified Message of equity, acceptance and inclusion throughout the school in order to impact and create positive change throughout our school culture.”

Unity Groups at Lore School

Ready Freddy Sets Kindergarten Students Up for Success!

The Ready Freddy Program is a unique program where we work to transition students into kindergarten. The goals for the program are to increase ease of transition to kindergarten, to provide support in early learning skills, and to set the foundation for family engagement between home and school. During the program, we expose the students to the various authors and texts, we explore the alphabet and their letter sounds, we practice counting and identifying numbers, and students learn to socialize with their peers. Kindergarteners had fun getting to know one another and are “READY” for a successful school year!

Research has shown that great cognitive growth occurs through social interaction. Educators also know that how we work together as adults to create a safe, joyful, and inclusive school environment is as important as our individual contribution or competence (Responsive Classroom). To provide opportunities for students to engage with others beyond their classroom and outside of their grade level, Lore students meet in mixed-grade Unity Groups

throughout the school year to discuss topics related to health and wellness and to participate in community service activities. The first Unity Group meeting is scheduled for October 23rd. In December, Unity Groups will meet to organize the Lore School Giving Project, and the proceeds from the school Penny Wars will be used to purchase food that will be donated to Meals on Wheels in the spring. The Lore School community is looking forward to an exciting school year full of COOPERATION, RESPECT, and SUPPORT for all.

What do you like best about Ewing High School? The thing I like most about Ewing High is how accepting everyone is. You can really be yourself. You will always find your niche at EHS, and you’re not just limited to one. You can be in as many clubs, sports and activities as you want. Who is your favorite teacher or coach and why? My favorite coach is Coach Dalessio for wrestling. Being the only girl wrestler on the team has its downsides, but Coach Dalessio never gave up on me and never let me give up on myself. He always pushes me to be better and doesn’t let me, or anyone, slack off. He refuses to treat me differently and that’s more than I could ask for. In which activities do you participate? I am a 4-year Varsity Softball player, a 3-year Varsity Wrestler, and a 2-year Varsity Soccer player. I am now a Captain for the Soccer team. I am involved in Student Council, Key Club, and I am the President of the Sports Medicine Club. I am a first stand violinist in the school’s orchestra. I am also a Peer Leader. Finally, I am the President of the National Honor Society branch at EHS. What is your favorite memory of high school? My favorite memory of high school is when

WE could not do this without individual donors, corporate sponsors, and local businesses, thank you for your continued support. WE want to acknowledge Educational Testing Services (ETS) for the substantial funding they provide, and have provided for the past 22 years, to EPEF annually! Together WE are Champions for Education in Ewing! Contribute NOW!!! For more information, go to: www.EPEF.org.

What do you do outside of school? Outside of school I am a lifeguard at The Ravine Club. I also play for the Ewing Edge Elite travel softball team and I am a mentor at the Ewing Girls Softball Association softball clinics. Who or what has impacted your life in a positive way? I am fortunate enough to have traveled to many places around the world. Each of these travels has taught me something new. Whether it’s a new appreciation for natural beauty or a humbling experience that makes me grateful for everything that I have, traveling has changed my life in an unspeakable manner. How do you define success? I define success as being happy and proud of how far you’ve come and all that you’ve accomplished. What are your plans after you graduate? I plan to continue my academic and softball careers at an out-of-state college. What is your favorite quote or book? “Even if you’re on the right path, you’ll still get run over if you just sit there.”

FMS Spring Track & Field Team Sets Bar High for 2018-19 girls set school records and five boys with the addition of the Boys relay team set a new benchmark for future FMS Track & Field athletes to strive for:

I pinned a senior to advance to the 3rd place wrestling match at Districts my freshman year. Although I came in 4th, I couldn’t be prouder of myself in that moment. My entire team and coaching staff were cheering me on and it’s a feeling I will never be able to forget.

The Fisher Middle School Track and Field team had another phenomenal spring season and are expecting ‘great things’ from FMS Track and Field athletes in 2018-19. The culmination for the Boys team was defeating Mercer County rival Community Middle School and completing their season with a perfect 6-0 season. With the win against Community Middle School, the Boys team was able to place the 7th undefeated banner on the wall of the FMS Brower Gymnasium. Many individuals on the team had personal success by setting a school record and had their names’ etched on the school record board. Three

Hut, Hut, Listen To Mercer-Burlington High School Football On

Amelie Francois and Samantha Sebasto are welcoming their new bigger roles on the Ewing High School field hockey team. Francois has moved up from defense to midfield. The senior played midfield in middle school, but once she got to high school she changed to defense for her first three years. Now she’s adjusting back to midfield at the high school level. “Midfield is a lot more running,� Francois said. “I also have to be a lot more offensive minded, rather than just defensive minded. It’s a lot of passing, not just getting the ball out, but passing to the offense and making sure I’m in the right spot and moving up enough and making sure I’m in the right positon to help out the team.� Sebasto didn’t have to move positions. The junior is back as one of Ewing’s three main forwards, but she’s happy to be seeing more playing time this season. “It’s a pretty big difference keeping the momentum up and pushing yourself,� Sebasto said. “It’s definitely better than going in and feeling good while you’re playing and being taken out.� 10:13 AM Francois and Sebasto are tri-captains along with standout forward Jaycee Lowe, who is a senior. They have been helping to bring along a Ewing team that graduated most of its defense and has varsity inexperience throughout the field. The trio combines to give the Blue Devils inspiring leadership. “They’ve been great,� said Ewing head coach Leslie Conant, who returns with assistant coach Kelly Hammer. “Jaycee, Samantha and Emilie are great on and off the field. “I couldn’t ask for three better captains. Just the fact that they work hard is encouraging, and they also lay down the law too and tell our girls to get to the line or get to the ball or talk. It’s really a good balance of salt and sweet.� The Ewing roster also includes: Dylan Greco, Angelina Gonzalez, Kellie Kramarz, Lara Martin, Ty Melvin, Rachel Messina, Tala Marzooq, Jada Muir, Dasi Pearson, Molly Servis, Samantha Tiziker and Monica Wang. The captains are working to bring along the team after an 0-6 start. The Blue Devils as a group have spent the early portion of the season adjusting to their new look. “It’s been difficult,� Sebasto said. “There are girls who played different positions last year who are playing a new position this year and trying to teach girls that are from Fisher that are used to other positions. It’s looking better and they’re getting it pretty fast.� The captains expect that their less veteran teammates will grow faster because

Sam Sebasto during a game last September against Allentown. (File photo by Suzette J. Lucas.) they have the opportunity to play early. Ewing will have the chance to build itself up over this season and beyond with a relatively small senior class of a half-dozen. “With having such a small team and having not many girls that have a lot of experience, it gives them time to be in the game,� Francois said. “You can only get better with playing. In my freshman year, there were a lot of older girls who were experienced, so I didn’t get to play that much. While we had practices, game experience is the most important.� The emphasis for the Blue Devils has been on positioning and learning the ins and outs of the game. Progress has been steady since the start of preseason. “Definitely communication is big,� Sebasto said. “We’re still working out some of our kinks. To know where everyone is on the field to set up for goals and plays is big. “There’s definitely been a lot of improvement with their skills and the team’s skills all-around honestly,� she added. “I’m very impressed with where they’ve come from.� Francois is enjoying being a leader for the team. She’s seen her experience grow each year, though last year she was hampered by a broken finger that cost her some playing time. She’s come into this season determined to be an impactful player for Ewing. “Being a senior and also being a captain, it’s a big responsibility,� Francois said. “You have to encourage the other


girls, especially if we’re down by a lot of goals and everyone is becoming anxious and the atmosphere is getting bad. You have to keep it up and encourage them and show them everything is going to be OK and we can still do it and keep up the intensity.” Her focus is on helping the revamped defense that lost Lauren Ettenger, Deanna Hedrick and goalie Kendall Bartkowski, as well as center mid Katie McGinn to graduation, and pushing the ball up to the offense for scoring chances. Sebasto is focused on helping the Blue Devils be more productive on the offensive end. “We have Lara Martin and Jaycee Lowe on the offensive attack along with myself, and that looks pretty good considering we all have experience on the offensive line,” Sebasto said. “We also have some newbies that are switching in with midfield and attack. All in all, it’s looking pretty good with girls that aren’t as experienced with it.” The Ewing offense is looking to create more scoring chances. They have started to pick up the opportunities which can help take some pressure off the defense. “We might not be getting the amount of goals that we want to get,” Sebasto said, “but we’re definitely setting up goals and getting down low to the cage a lot more.” Sebasto came into this season better prepared to contribute. She is in some of the best shape of her life, which is important since Conant doesn’t expect to take her off the field. “Definitely I’m a lot fitter this year,” Sebasto said. “Last year, since I didn’t get as much playing time as I would have liked, I wasn’t as fit. But this year, between preseason and running at home and doing my own things, I’m definitely more fit.” Across the board, the Blue Devils have been improving. Preseason practices helped to start to bring them up to speed and get them used to their spots. “The girls did well and we got their fitness up and definitely did a lot of learning,” Conant said. “I feel positive with

the girls we have and their work ethic in general. They really push each other. The first few games we got off to a bit of a rough start. Part of that was we only had one scrimmage in the preseason so it was hard to figure out positioning and where each girl would be beneficial to the team. After the first couple games, we learned a lot about ourselves and each other.” The play will improve as the players grow more comfortable with their positioning. Ewing would like that to happen quickly, but it takes playing time and experience to put it all together. “It’s that adjustment more than anything,” Conant said. “Their stickwork, hustle and fitness is pretty even with the years prior. It’s just figuring out what to do and where to go and when it’s OK to go up and when you should go back.” “It’s a little inexperience,” she explained. “We have a senior this year that came out for the first time. It’s not like all our girls are young. ” The inexperience plays into expectations for this year. The Blue Devils expect to be a far better team by the end of the season, but aren’t sure they can match last year’s six wins. “It’s definitely a lot of positive things going on,” Conant said. “Kelly and I are very optimistic about the season. It may not be the six or 10 wins that we’ve had in seasons past, but there are little small goals in each game that we hope to achieve and keep the girls enthusiastic and ready for the next one.” Francois is looking for a strong finish to her high school career before she decides if she’ll join a club team in college. She’s happy to have the chance to build up the Blue Devils in her last year. “I want to see everything clicking with everyone and I want to see the intensity being up the entire game whether we win or lose,” Francois said. “As long as we’re playing the best we can with the highest intensity, I’ll be completely 100 percent fine if everyone is enjoying the game and having a good time and working together. That’s the most important part, that we’re working together as a team.”

NJ BPU Clean Energy Program The Clean Energy Program sponsored by New Jersey Bureau of Public Utilities (BPU) is offering a special grant to owners of small and medium businesses throughout the state. This program, known as “Direct Install”, is offered to improve the energy efficiency of buildings with electricity demand not exceeding 200KW over the past 12 month period. The energy audit is free, and the grant will pay up to 70 percent of the cost of the upgrades approved by BPU. These would include LED lighting, high efficiency HVAC, refrigeration, motors and variable frequency drives. Healthy improvement in the bottom line for your business can be expected. Ewing Township and its Green Team support this program, and will present a Direct Install workshop at the Ewing Senior and Community Center 999 Lower Ferry Road on October 23 at 7pm. You will hear from members of the Ewing Green Team, a representative of the Direct Install contractor, as well as some Ewing business owners that have already completed the program.

What the heck is a

LIMITED DIVORCE? Many people are unaware that New Jersey has a marital status similar to “legal separation” known as a Limited Divorce (or Divorce from Bed & Board). Under a Limited Divorce, the parties resolve all issues as if a divorce was granted (equitable distribution, support, custody). Taxes are filed separately. The parties are completely financially separate as far as the acquisition of future debts and assets, however “the bonds to matrimony still exist”, thus under many medical policies can continue to share medical insurance. If the parties reconcile in the future, the Limited Divorce is nullified. If they later divorce, the terms of the Limited Divorce are incorporated into a Judgment of Divorce. For over 20 years, the Law Office of David Perry Davis, has specialized in Family Law (Divorce, Limited Divorce, custody, domestic violence, support). Uncontested divorces (either Limited or full) and annulments are handled for a flat fee of $850 (plus court filing fee unless waived), are generally completed within 3-6 weeks and do not require a physical court appearance. Consultations are provided without charge and in complete confidence.

buildings, and two lakes—Ceva (upper, near Pennington Road) and Sylva (lower, towards back)—were dug and created with the help of earthen dams on the Shabakunk. Bridges, islands, boardwalks and walking paths through wooded areas were constructed. But the main attraction was a large inn, which was located near to the land between the two lakes, about where the School of Education parking garage is now located on The College of New Jersey campus. It opened in late 1922. Green describes the wood frame Hillwood Inn as “a delightful place with a large dance floor and orchestra and serving delicious meals. It soon became a wellknown place—very high class… People came from far and near to have dinner and parties.” It could accommodate up to 300 people, and had a wide wrap-around porch from which you could view the lakes while you dined in the warmer months. There were some guest rooms as well, and living quarters for some of the people who operated the Inn. The Hillwood Inn was definitely a regional destination and very popular. In the days of the roaring ’20s and Prohibition, it was a dining and dancing destination—a night out for a couple or a crowd. It also hosted business luncheons, meetings, and celebratory gatherings. While Green states that it “did not serve drinks” (after all, it was Prohibition!), who knows what may have been going on behind the scenes, so to speak. The grounds were lovely and unique as well. A boardwalk edged the lake, lit by ornate lamp posts. Swimming and diving was allowed in the lower lake, which had a small beach area as well. In the winter, the shallower, upper lake Ceva froze over for skating. Row boats and canoes were available to rent by the hour, and guests could also pay to be given a ride around the lake with that “special someone.” And CV Hill—who you may recall reading in last month’s column had built a miniature village in his boyhood front yard in Hopewell—similarly had constructed a miniature village near the Inn, through which one could walk and watch the water wheels turn and move parts of the village. Mr. Hill never lost his inventiveness! The Inn lasted until 1928 or so, just prior to the market crash of 1929. Maintenance costs of the property were rising, and Mr. Hill was looking for a buyer for the property. As it happened, one came along—and that will be the subject of next month’s column.

Youth sports are good for adults as well as kids By Ilene Black

Most of our sons’ childhoods were spent on an athletic field in Ewing. Soccer, baseball, basketball, they did them all at one time or another. From ages 5 to 18, Georgie and Donnie (and me and George) lived on one soccer field or another. Those days were exhausting, sometimes blazing hot, sometimes bitter cold, always time-consuming, yet they remain some of the most rewarding times we’ve ever spent. All of us adults were volunteers. We ran concession stands, lined fields, repaired nets, emptied trash, coached and/or managed teams, and we had a blast doing it. No one got paid. No one expected to. Quite simply, we did what we did for so many years for the kids. All the kids. Not just our own. We all had a hand in raising the kids on the teams. We created a safe, fun, and healthy village in which our kids grew and flourished. And so did the adults. My parents helped out. My mother sold tee shirts at the West End soccer tournament every Labor Day weekend. I should say she shamed people into buying tee shirts. Her sales pitch was a little aggressive! My dad helped coach in a pinch. The kids on my sons’ soccer teams still to this day call my dad Pop. I think they were afraid of my mother. No matter what level of athletic ability the kids had, they were treated the same by coaches and adults. Everyone learned the meaning of commitment, loyalty, friendship, dedication, sportsmanship, patience and acceptance. They were life lessons. And we all benefitted from them. Sometimes our teams were good, sometimes not so good. Sometimes we had bad officiating. Sometimes there were arguments, upsets, disagreements. But these all were learning experiences too. How to handle adversity, how to control anger or frustration, how to channel those emotions into being better, getting better, getting stronger, were lessons invaluable to our kids. If you ask our sons, they will tell you that some of their best memories were made on those fields. Many of their current friends are friends from their youth soccer days. Their mentors and role models were their coaches. Their surrogate parents and grandparents stood on those sidelines year after year, watching, encouraging, supporting. These days I see the players all grown up, some with families of their own, and I feel proud of what they have become. I also feel really really old! We used to run a Labor Day soccer tournament every year. Our kids were put to work during that tournament. They

lugged supplies, set up concession stands, cleaned up after games, and learned the satisfaction of being a part of something that represented Ewing so well. I was involved in West End soccer for over 17 years, first as a parent who never saw a soccer game in her life, then a coach who had seen soccer games by then but could barely kick the ball without hurting her foot, a manager who made phone calls, shuffled papers, planned meetings, and a board member. I was also the tournament director for several years. Think about that for a minute: I was the tournament directior! The woman who, like I said earlier, could barely kick a soccer ball without A) hurting my foot, B) hitting someone, or C)) missing the ball altogether. The woman who still to this day is not quite sure what offside looks like. The most un-athletic human on the planet and there I was, directing a tournament. I am living, breathing proof that anyone can do anything if they choose to do it. And it was important to my kids, therefore it was important to me. So here’s some advice to the parents, grandparents, guardians of youth sportsaged kids: get involved. Be the adult your kids will be proud of. Be the adult who teaches your kids by example what it’s like to give back. Be the adult to learn the lessons that we, the older sports supporter generation, live every day. Be the adult who gets satisfaction from giving a few hours a week to helping a team that is important to your kids. You will not regret it. Just do it.

Voters who want to vote only by mail in ALL FUTURE ELECTIONS in which they are eligible to vote must check this box on the form, and will be provided a mail-in ballot by the County Clerk for all future elections until the voter requests in writing to the County Clerk that the voter wishes for this to discontinue. The former choices no longer exist. A voter’s failure to vote in the fourth general election following the general election at which the voter last voted may result in the suspension of that voter’s ability to receive a mail-in ballot for all future elections. Application forms may be obtained by applying to the undersigned either in writing or by telephone, or by completing the application form provided below and mailing to the undersigned.
