To protect, not punish School district says new drug testing policy meant to help students By KeVin KUnZMann

The intent is not to condemn or punish a wrongdoer, but to find and help the individual in need. At least, that’s how the Robbinsville Public School District Board of Education has pitched its drug testing policy that would adopt contracted, randomized testing of up to 10% of the districts’ athletes, club members and other qualified students at any given time. The school board was expected to formally approve the initiative at its May 28 meeting, which took place after this edition went to press. Superintendent Kathie Foster said the decision to propose a randomized drug testing policy was spurred by the results of a

2018 National Institutes on Drug Abuse survey which showed that, among 12th graders, vaping use was reported by 37.3% of students, nicotine use by 29.7% and marijuana/hash oil by 13.1%. The survey of 44,000-plus students also showed that monthly marijuana use is now more frequent among 12th graders than monthly cigarette use, and that vaping use has increased in students from grade eight through 12. The proposed testing policy would include a pool of students who participate in a “privilege,” meaning members of athletic teams, extracurricular clubs, students who have permits to park on school grounds—as well as those who voluntarily sign up for the testing. Prohibited substances would include alcohol/ethanol, amphetamines, ecstasy, cocaine, marijuana/THC, opiates, PCP, barbiturates, benzodiazepines, propoxyphene, oxycodone and methaqualone. The district would intend to review

the list annually. Outside contractors will conduct all the school district’s tests, and will pull students at random from a confidential database. Any students who test positive for an illegal drug or alcohol will be tested once more, and their parents will be notified by a medical review officer. Any refusal to participate in randomized testing will count as a positive result. Though they will not lose access to extracurricular privileges on first offense, students will be required to complete five counseling sessions with a Student Assistance Coordinate, and provide at least three more subsequent random drug tests. Additional test failures could result in privilege suspensions, increased counseling sessions and subsequent tests, barring from events including senior trip, prom and graduation, and eventual referral to the Child Study Team for assessment.

The end of the school year is here. The Robbinsville High School Class of 2019 is set to graduate 6 p.m. on Friday, June 21 at the school’s athletic field. Among those graduates are

this year’s Exceptional Seniors, a group of 10 students chosen by the school administration. These students represent the best of the Class of 2019, and are en route to top-flight institutions like George Washington, University of Virginia and the University of Michigan. The 10 students—Amanda Allen, Priyanka Bhatnagar, Anushka Biswas, ToniJosephine Escuadro, Bhargavi Lanka, Sanjana Madhu, Harsh Padhye, Likhitha Patlolla, Manu Sankaran and Morgan Serra—have made their mark

at RHS in a wide range of clubs, sports and community service activities. They hope to go on to careers in the law, engineering, medicine, computer science and actuarial fields. The seniors took a moment out of their busy schedules to answer a few questions about their time in Robbinsville schools, who has inpsired them and what they envision for their futures. For more on the 2019 Robbinsville High School Exceptional Seniors—including their biographies and photos— turn to Page 14.

INBOX Don’t take the PTA for granted The PRMS PTA is a volunteer-run, nonprofit organization that promotes the welfare of children and youth. We run events for the PRMS students such as bookfairs, school spiritwear and educational assemblies, provide funds towards class trips for every student, run the Reflections arts program (where many of our students have been showcased, recognized and/or awarded at the county, state and national levels), organize and run class socials/dances and more. These events are run by volunteers and with the money raised through membership, our “Write A Check Campaign” and other fundraisers. Over the last several years, our membership numbers, our volunteers and our donations have significantly decreased every year. We have tried to keep the cost of the events at a minimum for our families while still ensuring the students have an enjoyable and memorable experience. It is becoming more and more difficult to run events for the students of Pond Road Middle School with the resources we have. This year, we have received about half of the donations and have almost half of the members that we had just four years ago, while serving roughly the same number of students. We are currently at a deficit of about $4,000 to meet the operating needs of this year’s budget. It is critical to the future of the PTA to find ways in which we can increase membership and donations in order to continue the things that mean so much to our children. We have tried to encourage membership by offering membership discounts. Our members are offered benefits in the form of discounts on events (such as Trunk or Treat and socials) and merchandise (such as school spiritwear).

Membership is entirely voluntary and does not commit the member to anything. It allows the parent, grandparent, teacher or community member the opportunity to vote at our meetings. It keeps you connected to the school, it offers opportunities to meet other parents or teachers and discuss issues that may be on your mind. Membership in the PTA sets an example for your children and shows them that education and involvement in the school is important to you. It also entitles you to certain benefits at the local, state and national level through the PRMS PTA, National PTA and New Jersey PTA. A $10 PRMS PTA membership automatically enrolls you in all 3 organizations and entitles the bearer to all of these benefits. Membership has its rewards, and without members, there would be no PTA. On May 8, we held a vote for the executive committee for the 2019-2020 school year. We are currently without a president for next year. With no president, the PTA cannot continue. With no PTA, there will be no bookfairs, no school spiritwear, no educational assemblies, no Reflections program, no class socials/dances and no funding towards class trips (current PTA funding is $8 per student). We are an organization, self-funded, run by volunteers, providing support, entertainment and educational opportunities for our students. There is still time to make it to a meeting, volunteer for an event, make a donation or become a member. Please contact us at pondpta@ gmail.com for additional information.

Penn Medicine and Becker ENT have joined forces to continue their mission to deliver outstanding, compassionate, and convenient care to the residents of New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

COMMENTARY

The thankless job of PTAs By Mary Meddahi A note in the Inbox section of the May 2019 issue of Robbinsville Advance read as criticism of the Pond Road PTA. This is in response to that letter. My family moved here five years ago from a district with an effective PTA comprised of numerous parents fully committed to educational enrichment. The PTA’s annual budget was more than double the budget of the Pond Road PTA for a comparable number of students. I joined the PTAs—both Sharon and Pond (now Pond and RHS)—began serving wherever needed and eventually as an executive board member. This was in addition to donating to various fundraisers and supporting teacher appreciation week. Unfortunately, I needed to leave my board position and drastically reduce my volunteer efforts for personal related health issues. But I have seen how Robbinsville’s PTAs have struggled with membership and fundraising, even with a climbing student population. Serving one’s community on the PTA is at times a thankless job, and yet there are people willing to do it. Meeting quietly every month with no one showing up other than other executive board members and teacher reps is disheartening. Trying to make all the extras happen while fighting the loss of funds and membership is a daunting task. They have a hard time drumming up people to be on the executive boards, and in fact if PRMS doesn’t get someone to step up as president for next year there may not be a PTA. This will be a loss for our community and one that disproportionately impacts all of our children. Without a PTA at PRMS in Robbinsville what will be the consequences? No seasonal decorations in front of PRMS. No assemblies. No book fairs. No vouchers for teachers for books for their classrooms. No new books purchased for the school library. No books for Homefront. No Trunk or Treat event at Halloween. No refreshments for Winter Fun Day or Field Day. No Reflections programs to showcase our students’ creative endeavors in local, state, and county competitions. No spiritwear so the kids can show off their school pride. No 5th, 6th or 7th grade socials. The PTA provides funding for these and other activities, including 8th grade lunch, class trips and student of the month. The PTA has teacher appreciation events to foster love, respect, and community between parents, teachers and students fully funded by the PTA and generous parent volunteers. This event is the highlight of the year for our teachers, and we are told this every year by all of them. They feel the love and they feel appreciated even though we are struggling to keep it on a budget that is about half what it was even five years ago. Will this too disappear? From 2014, PTA membership at

PRMS has declined from 640 to 325. Our local PTA only gets to keep a part of that small membership fee, as the rest goes to the State and National PTAs. Write a check donations (our PRMS fundraiser) have gone from $12,914 to $6,290. All of this while enrollment increases. The PRMS PTA is currently almost $4,000 under budget for the year. While I was on the board, we struggled monthly trying to combat these declines. Everyone asked friends and neighbors, “Why the apathy? What can we do to improve it?” Some told me that people don’t join cause they think the PTA is “just a clique of moms who have nothing better to do.” I can assure you that’s not true. I’ve worked with many great people. Cari Shapiro, Christine Pancari, Kristin Patterson are the PTA presidents, but all the others that worked the board positions or simply volunteered elsewhere are just as amazing and just as tireless. They don’t do it for self-promotion; to get anything from it other than the satisfaction they are helping all the children in the district. Efforts that take them from their own families, lives and jobs. When we were thinking how to get people involved, I said that we needed to show value in being a member, so I suggested a discount for members. A small amount at each thing so people would see a benefit to being a member. A $2 discount on a social event, a discount on spirit wear. This debate took a few months to resolve. We all thought it was a good idea and appropriate. It was discussed at several (once again, unattended) meetings. The welcome letter from the PRMS president this year included the idea of discounts for members on the seventh line for anyone who cared to read it. I guess my point in writing is that we as a community need to speak up by attending meetings and participating, to show up at events and with our wallets because the educational enrichment, social and teacher events brought to you by the PTA matter to both the teachers and students in our district. Do we still want to give our kids these “extras”? Ask your child if they see any benefit in the PTA and if you should be a member. Has your child ever come home smiling from a PTA sponsored event? We’ve all heard the expression “It takes a village,” but not enough of us are willing to be that village. We as a community should be looking at more ways to come together and connect and support each other and each other’s efforts rather than tear each other down. The people who always volunteer at each school, who are always putting themselves out there must be getting tired of carrying the weight for the rest of us. Not only are they not recognized as the powerhouses they are, but they are constantly being questioned on the hard decisions they make. Even the $2 ones.

BAPS Charities and Robbinsville Township officials celebrate a donation of $6,000 to the Robbinsville C.A.R.E. program. More than 400 people participated in the BAPS Charities Walk, held on May 19 in Robbinsville, to raise funds for The Nature Conservancy and the Robbinsville Community Addiction Recovery Effort (C.A.R.E.). This year, BAPS Charities supported The Nature Conservancy’s efforts to plant one billion trees by 2025 and the Robbinsville Township’s C.A.R.E. program to provide accessible treatment. The activities of BAPS Charities are centered on improving the quality of lives of individuals and their families. For additional information, visit bapscharities.org.

Miry Run officially preserved The former Miry Run Country Club in Robbinsville has been preserved with the help of a grant from the Mercer County Open Space Assistance Program. The property, now called Spring Garden Country Club, will be owned and managed by Robbinsville as a new park. The township plans to create trails from the former golf cart paths and provide other passive recreational opportunities on the property. The township will also foot some of the bill. The 158-acre site is bordered by Sharon Road and Spring Garden Road. It is adjacent to the Trenton Robbinsville Airport, where planes used to land just off the 16th fairway and 17th green. Thirty acres of the old golf course will be used as a buffer between the park and airport. The site is also adjacent to other preserved lands, and contains wetlands and a tributary of the Miry Run and Mudd Run. As reported previously by the Advance, Titusville-based Sethi Development Corporation had at one point planned to take over 24 acres of the site—including Miry Run’s clubhouse—and construct a large banquet hall there. The developer’s application to the Robbinsville Township

Zoning Board generated a substantial amount of backlash from residents in the area, who cited traffic and noise concerns. In the face of the public outcry, Sethi pulled its application. After that, the property sat in limbo for awhile before the township arranged to take it over. “The township’s hyperaggressive open space policy has resulted in over 1,100 preserved acres since the start of our administration in 2005,” said Dave Fried, Robbinsville’s mayor, in a statement released by the county. The county’s Open Space Assistance Program is sustained by the Open Space Trust Fund and provides grants to municipalities and nonprofit organizations for the preservation of locally significant open space properties. The grants currently provide up to 40 percent of the appraised value of a property, up to $1.6 million for each project. The agreement with Robbinsville, which was approved by the freeholder board on April 25, is for $536,000, which represents 40 percent of the appraised value of the property. The township would be responsible for the remainder. The grant program is administered by County Planning Department staff and grant applications are initially recommended for approval by the county’s Open Space Board, made up of County employee and citizen representatives. The County’s Board of Chosen Freeholders gives final grant approval. The trust fund was established by voter referendum in 1989 to provide funding for open space preservation. Currently, 70 percent of the funds are dedicated to preserving parks, open space and farmland; 20 percent to recreational development and historic preservation, and 10 percent to ecological stewardship. Since 1989, 22,800 acres have been preserved, including 5,700 acres preserved through grants under the county’s assistance program.

TESTING continued from Page 1 “This is a bold policy to adopt and implement,” Foster said. “However, if we can delay the onset of drug use or diminish the frequency, we reduce the risk of addiction for that child.” Foster added that other local districts have adopted similar random drug testing policies, and their early results have shown a deterrent in student drug misuse. She hopes Robbinsville can follow suit. One such policy was implemented by the Hopewell Valley Regional School District last year. Superintendent Tom Smith confirmed the initial results have shown it being a success, while similarly setting minimal student punishments upon first offenses and instead emphasizing professional aid. Smith reported that the district had no decrease in student extracurricular club or athletic participation—a concern of parents against the drug test policy at the time of its proposal. Rather, he said, they saw an increase in student privilege participation. There was also a significant reduction in students testing positive for drugs or alcohol over the school year—a pleasant surprise for Smith and his colleagues considering the district’s previous issues with high test rates for recreational drugs which drove the push for a randomized policy in the first place. At one point, fentanyl was found on school property. “We clearly had a problem that we acknowledged and owned,” he said. “We wanted to do this in a therapeutic mold.” Providing therapeutic measures at the time of a failed test to students who are beginning to experiment with drugs and alcohol is surely a wise measure to reduce recurring use. But some of the actual benefit may have also come from the unpredictability of a random drug test policy. “We hear from kids that they’re talking

about it,” Smith said. “It’s giving them a reason to say no, and kids who are at parties or somewhere where it’s being discussed have told us they say no because they’re afraid of getting selected.” Another benefit to these drug testing policies could be their anonymity—the lack of direct and distinct punishment for a student in lieu of therapy means their classmates may not pick up on what’s happening. As a result, the stigma of failing a drug test isn’t perpetuated. “It is about as confidential as it gets,” Smith said. “I don’t even get names for failed tests, just the test ID numbers.” Foster reiterated that the proposed Robbinsville policy would not include academic penalizations, nor would any documentation of a failed test be carried in a student’s academic or discipline records. There is no prosecution for test failure—only help. “The important emphasis behind a random drug testing program like this is deterrence and remediation versus the punishment of pupils who test positive for prohibited substances,” Foster said. Foster said if approved, they will closely monitor the policy’s implementation, while collecting data and other metrics to track its benefits. Though Smith and Hopewell Valley set a model for statistical success under a random drug testing program, the intent isn’t necessarily improved numbers. Rather, Smith said, it’s about ensuring something as serious as a failed drug test becomes a discussion between a parent and their child. “What I said to our community was that we don’t take pleasure in invoking this policy, but as a parent of two high schoolers, this does provide some level of comfort knowing this process is out there, and that it’s about as therapeutic as we can make it,” Smith said.

‘If we can delay the onset of drug use or diminish the frequency, we reduce the risk of addiction.’ –Supertintendent Kathie Foster

ADVERTISING FEATURE

PLANNING FOR TOOTH EMERGENCIES Academy Dental is a warm, inviting SPAthemed dentist facility in Hamilton, and is rated as one of the best places by Hulafrog for dental treatment. Dr. Navleen Thind, D.D.S. is a trusted dentist who practices adults and kids’ dentistry, along with her colleagues Dr. Steven Reff D.D.S., FICOI, (Dental Implants), Dr. Pankaj Puri D.D.S. (Orthodontics) and Dr. Gunjan Parmar D.D.S. and Dr. Christine Pereira, D.D.S. Today, Dr. Thind is sharing her four top tips to help you manage dental emergencies, and importantly, plan ahead so you are best equipped to handle one:

1. FIRST THINGS FIRST: Choosing a dentist, and trusting them to care for your happy, healthy smile is an important decision most families make. First things that come to mind are if you are adequately covered should you need any dental work. Selecting a dental insurance plan which has a wider selection of dentists can already set you far ahead. Certain plans limit acceptance at a specific dental practice, generally known as DMO or HMO plans. In comparison, PPO plans allow patients to visit any doctor who is in their network. In addition, most such plans also have out of network benefits, ultimately allowing patients to virtually see any dentist practice. When in an emergency, it is utmost important to have as much flexibility in who you can see for urgent care, so making the right decisions for yourself and your family are critical. Planning ahead, making the right choices and investing wisely in the selection of coverage that your family needs can yield great success later. 2. EMERGENCIES ON VACATION: Spring time is here, and soon you will be travelling for your next vacation. While away from home, it is important to be ready to handle any dental emergency. Chances are that travelling out of state, your insurance may have limitations, and it may be harder to find a dentist that can provide care. Supplemental dental insurance for travel can be a way to be prepared, and it is good to check out any dentists which accept your supplementary insurance should the need arise. However, having your family dentist reachable via online, phone or social media can be a great way to still get some advice, or tips while travelling. Keep your dentist’s emergency line handy, and be sure to like their social media pages so they know you well in advance when you need

them! Packing a small medical kit with some pain medicines, and gum ointment may help as an urgent palliative resource.

3. DENTIST VS EMERGENCY ROOM: A natural first response to any dental emergency is to call your family dentist for an urgent appointment. Most dental practices have limited office hours, with no late evening hours or weekend clinical days. This limits the availability of such practice to patients when they need them the most. Often, patients may call around for any other dentists who may accommodate them. In most situations, the hospital emergency room is the only way to seek urgent help. While helpful in terms of receiving urgent palliative care, most emergency rooms do not staff a dentist. After an expensive visit and long wait – patients are most certainly recommended to see a dentist as a follow-up for treatment. Academy Dental is open 7 days a week, which offers patients in Hamilton, Robbinsville, Lawrenceville and surrounding areas a great advantage to seek urgent care. Offering online appointment scheduling 24 hours a day provides great mental peace to patients that they have a secured spot to see the dentist at their earliest convenience. We welcome patients to check our extremely high levels of service and care, and benefit from our expanded coverage.

4. SECRET SAUCE (CONTINUING CARE): Routine dental visits are key, and can help detect problems early so they can be addressed. Continuing care is the most reliable way to stay abreast of your oral health, and be informed about any concerns that need immediate attention. Dr. Thind provides her patients counselling on how to care for their teeth in between their regular, bi-annual visits. Her team of excellent Dental Hygienists are caring, and ensure all patients are provided with the same, gentle care and attention. Getting healthy and staying healthy prevents undue stress and expense that a dental emergency visit may involve. Regular appointment reminders from Academy Dental via text, phone and Birthday Postcards provide our patients a fairly easy way to be connected, and attend routine checkups. Check with your family dentist if they are also setup to keep yourself informed and are vested in your healthy smiles the same way as you are!

She was a great mentor and helped me grow into a better player and person. Favorite memory: The senior trip to Disney. Traveling and going around the parks with all of my friends gave me some of the best memories of my high school career.

Sports: Tennis Clubs: Science Olympiad (secretary), FMLA (treasurer), National Honor Society, World Language Honor Society (vice president) Prior schooling: Menlo Park Elementary, Woodrow Wilson Middle (Edison) Teacher who inspired me: Mr. Gibson, who gave me my nickname “Yanks.” Favorite memory: Senior trip to Disney. Small moments like playing Heads Up with strangers while waiting in line and sprinting with friends to save our dinner reservation forged memories I’m truly grateful for.

I’ll be sure to take both her bio lessons and life lessons with me as I head off to college. Favorite memory: I thought I could somehow cast, screenwrite, and direct, as well as star in, my very own production of “A Twister on a Farm” for Sharon Idol and luckily had all my closest friends by my side to laugh off the final “play.”

Sports: Cross country (captain), winter track, spring track Clubs: Model UN, Science Olympiad, National Honor Society, and Play Unified (e-board) Prior schooling: Sharon Elementary, Pond Road Middle Teacher who inspired me: Mr. Williams (middle school and sophomore year choir teacher) inspired me to perceive singing as an opportunity to build character, connect with others, act as a leader, and demand more from myself. While I no longer am part of the music department, I apply these skills in my academics, extracurriculars, and personal life. Favorite memory: My friends and I walking into our connected hotel rooms at Disney.

PADEP finds ‘deficiencies’ in toxic waste facility application By Rob Anthes

ranthes@communitynews.org

The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection came out against an application for a proposed toxic waste treatment facility in Bucks County May 15, saying it had “a number of outstanding deficiencies.” PADEP’s Notice of Intent to Deny comes after completing a 10-month technical review of materials submitted by the applicant, Israel-based Elcon Recycling Services. Elcon wants to build a facility in Falls Township that would store and treat nearly 200,000 tons per year of hazardous and residual waste. This includes mercury, lead, cadmium, benzine, vinyl chloride and 260 other chemicals. “After a rigorous review of the application, supplemental materials submitted by the company, and input from the public, DEP will not approve this application in its current form,” PADEP secretary Patrick McDonnell said in a statement. “Unless the company can address these outstanding deficiencies, DEP will have no choice but to move forward with a full application denial.” PADEP, in its statement, was careful to point out that a Notice of Intent to Deny is not a final decision by PADEP. Elcon still may submit materials to address the deficiencies cited by PADEP. But, with the review over, members of the public now also have an opportu-

nity to go on the record. A public comment period begins June 1 and runs until July 15, with PADEP required to acknowledge all comments its receives during the 45-day comment period. The agency will review and address each comment in a public document. All comments should be emailed to RA-EPHWELCON@pa.gov. The PADEP decision only applies to Elcon’s hazardous waste application. Elcon also has two additional applications for air quality and stormwater, which PADEP continues to review. In a document dated May 7, PADEP detailed 18 reasons why it could not accept Elcon’s hazardous waste application. Elcon’s miscues ranged from overstating the facility’s economic benefits to, in its plans, including buildings and infrastructure outside the site boundary. Of particular importance was PADEP’s discovery of an equivocation by Elcon regarding groundwater monitoring—company representatives had said Elcon would install a system to watch for accidental releases, but PADEP said the application stated Elcon would install groundwater monitoring only after a spill had already occurred. PADEP also dinged Elcon for being unclear in its application as to whether Elcon would accept certain types of waste, such as PCBs, at the Falls Township facility. PADEP’s announcement is the latest in a line of recent blows to the Elcon

The Falls Township Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to reject the proposal during a special meeting April 30, prompting a standing ovation from the residents who packed the meeting at Pennsbury High School West’s Keller Hall. That vote came on the heels of a March 26 unanimous decision from the Falls Township planning commission to not recommend plans for the Elcon facil-

ity. The planning commission does not have legal authority, but the Falls supervisor board does factor its recommendations into decisions. Public opinion has long been against the Elcon proposal, but the opposition became louder and larger after the Hamilton Post published an investigation into Elcon, its history and its Falls Township proposal last month. The Falls Township and PADEP decisions came after the article’s release, as did a May 7 Hamilton Township council resolution opposing the facility. Before the council vote, Hamilton was one of just two neighboring municipalities to not have passed a resolution against Elcon. Trenton is now the lone holdout. The Elcon proposal isn’t dead, though. The company’s Falls Township proposal has been denied by PADEP three times already, once in 2015 and twice in 2017. Like those times, Elcon once again will have a chance to revise and resubmit its applications. If Elcon receives the approvals it seeks, it would build a 70,000-squarefoot storage and treatment facility on a 33-acre plot of land on Dean Sievers Place. The plant would accept toxic waste from approximately 20 tanker trucks daily, carrying aqueous material from automotive shops, mining operations, pharmaceutical and industrial manufacturing plants. Elcon has said waste would come via truck only to Falls Township from 10 East Coast states.

SPORTS

Goalie Coyle quick with a presidential fact or a lacrosse save By Rich Fisher It doesn’t matter the time of day or the circumstance, Cameron Coyle is flawless when it comes to our nation’s leaders. The sophomore goalie just had his season come to a disappointing end when the Robbinsville High boys’ lacrosse team was ousted from the state tournament by Seneca. Despite not being in a happy mood, Coyle’s mind was still sharp when spontaneously asked who was the 28th president of the United States. “Woodrow Wilson is the 28th president,” he said with a grin. “I’m always ready.” Coyle is not only a standout goalie, he is a presidential expert. He became aware of the world’s most powerful men since hearing a campaign jingle on television when he was 5-years-old. “I just really caught onto it,” he said. “I remembered it and it just took off for me, I loved studying that. I was carrying books around with me for as long as I can remember, going on vacations, going to the store. I was reading books, it just really grew on me.” Coyle said he could not name a favorite because he has respect for them

all. But he has taken a keen interest in Zachary Taylor, who he quickly noted was our 12th president, and his vice president was Millard Fillmore (he also knows all the VPs). Coyle and his grandfather would travel around the country to visit presidential historical sites. They soon noticed that Taylor was the lone president not to have such a site. “I’ve been working hard to try and get a national site for him,” Coyle said. “Now I’m reading biographies, I’m calling people, doing whatever I need to do to figure it out.” Surprisingly, he has come across numerous interesting details about Taylor, noting, “No one would even expect that.” One of the most unique items is how he died. The common belief is that he passed away while eating cherries and drinking milk on a hot day. “It might be true, it might not be,” Coyle said. “Depends on the source.” The most accepted version come from

Michael Holt, an emeritus professor of history at the University of Virginia. Holt wrote that Taylor drank ice water and large helpings of cherries and other fruits while walking along the Potomac River on Fourth of July. He passed away five days later. The point here being, Coyle can give you a presidential tidbit as quickly as he can provide a big save in goal. A product of the Robbinsville Lacrosse Association, he was one of many players “thrown into the cage” in third grade. “They were like, ‘You’re the goalie,’” he said. “I was like ‘OK, I’ll do whatever.’” In fourth grade, he led the team in goals at attack, while also playing in goal. By fifth grade he started taking goalkeeping serious. He worked with Dave Decker, a former All-American at Stevens Tech. Upon moving to Blue Star Lacrosse, he came under the wing of former Shawnee coach Don Green and former Notre Dame

“They were like, ‘You’re the goalie.’ I was like, ‘OK, I’ll do whatever.” –Cameron Coyle on how he came to his position in lacrosse

University goalie Shane Doss. By the time he arrived at Robbinsville, his name was already out there. “I knew about him,” coach John Demkovitz said. “I always say it’s nice to hear about people but I want to see for myself. You knew the first day that there was something special about the kid. I’m just so happy he’s on our side.” Coyle made 174 saves during his freshman season as the Ravens went 6-10 and won a state tournament game. His ability to lead on the field resulted in him being voted captain by his teammates this year. “That’s all you really need to say about him,” Demkovitz said. “He’s positive all day long. Thank God he’s on our sideline. He brings energy every single day. He’s always positive, always looking at the brighter side of things. He keeps things loose at practice, he’s a great individual.” He’s also consistent, as he made 189 saves in this year’s 8-8 season, while allowing just one more goal than last season. Coyle can make the mundane stop along with the spectacular. “You’ve just gotta find a comfort zone and be consistent whenever you can be,” he said. “It sounds easy but it takes a lot of time and takes maturity to get into that rhythm. Sometimes when you don’t

continued. “If you overthink it, you’re not gonna be on par. I personally like to do a lot of breathing exercises just to get my mind focused and settle down. You can’t be too jittery or else you’re gonna slip up a little bit. Those milliseconds count.” Demkovitz, who played for Robbinsville, feels Coyle is the best goalie the program has had, considering he has two years left. And there is more to it than just a positive mindset. “He has a 100 percent work ethic,” the coach said. “Not one person works harder than him and I put him up against anyone. He’s obviously a gifted lacrosse player. But when you have a gifted lacrosse player and an extra hard worker, that’s a great combination.” That work ethic spills over into the classroom where Coyle has a 4.0 grade point average. He has already reached out to college coaches in order to continue his playing career, saying “I just love the game and everything that goes with it.” Not surprisingly, Coyle and some friends started a political club at RHS, and a refreshing one at that considering Robbinsville High boys’ lacrosse the climate of the country these days. “We started a bipartisan student politigoalie Cameron Coyle made 189 saves in this year’s 8-8 season. cal action club,” he said. “It’s a forum where you can all talk about different (Photo by Rich Fisher.) issues that are important to you, and give them a voice.

Bercaw ‘good at everything’ for Irish softball By Rich Fisher It was not the best of offensive starts for Emelia Bercaw this season, who collected just three hits in her first 11 at-bats after batting .382 for the Notre Dame High softball team as a sophomore. Then again, the Robbinsville resident was busy trying to figure things out with both her glove and bat while getting rid of the last remnants of pain in her wrist. Due to a numbers-overflow issue in the outfield, the centerfielder was moved to third base by coach Marty Schafer. Unfortunately, if there was anywhere in the infield she felt comfortable, it was at second. Throw in the fact that Bercaw is in her first year of going from a full-swing, right-handed batter to a left-handed slap hitter, and it was easy to see how she was too busy thinking about things instead of letting her natural instincts take over. Oh, and there was also the little matter of recovering from a wrist injury, which occurred due to overuse. Thus, her early plate appearances were underwhelming. “I think it had something to do with my confidence,” she said. “In the field I was struggling a lot. I try not to let it get to me at bat, but it’s also my first season slapping. I started in August so I was dealing with that.” Schafer soon realized that third base was doing more harm than good, and

he moved Bercaw to the outfield, where she plays during travel ball. She eventually moved to second base, where she has a better infield comfort level. The wrist finally began to heal, and Bercaw was getting a better feel for slapping and suddenly everything came together. As of May 21, Bercaw was hitting .457 out of the nine hole, with four doubles, 12 stolen bases, 11 RBI and 27 runs scored. In a four-game stretch from April 25 to May 1, she went 10-for-12 with eight runs scored. “I started playing third at the beginning of last season and then I had the wrist injury so I was out,” she said. “I probably played third for about a quarter of the season. It went pretty well last season, but this season I was a little rusty. So, Coach Marty put me in the outfield for a couple games, which I’m very comfortable at. Then he moved me to second, which I’m also very comfortable at.” And the more she slapped, the more comfortable she got at the plate. “I’d been toying with the idea over the past four years but I was pretty good as a righty,” Bercaw said. “I just figured I would stick with that because that’s what I knew. But I got a lot faster and my wrist injury actually was worse when I was a righty hitter, so that also influenced it.” In becoming a slapper, Bercaw not only had to cross over the plate, but begin running to first before the pitch even arrived. Robbinsville has one of the

Emelia Bercaw changed her batting style and her field position this season, but continued to impress for the Notre Dame softball team. (Photo by Rich Fisher.) best in Mercer history at that in Chelsea Manto, and Bercaw has now given the township two strong slappers. “It started with the footwork, like hit-

ting off my left foot when that’s supposed to be your back foot,” Bercaw said of the adjustment. “That was a lot harder than being a righty. And the timing aspect of it, learning the different pitches and how they pitch you as a slapper made it a lot more challenging. But I’m definitely comfortable now.” Although it was a litany of issues Bercaw was dealing with, Schafer took the bullet. “This was on me,” he said. “I had her in the wrong position. I asked her to go outside of herself because we had a couple injuries. I needed her over at third, she wasn’t used to playing it. Once I got her back to second and she was comfortable and it’s been the Emelia of old. She’s having one heck of a year. Her problem is she’s good at everything. My problem is I’m loaded with outfielders so I had to move her in.” Bercaw was born in Nazareth, Pennsylvania, the home of famed Indy car driver Mario Andretti. She started her athletic career as a gymnast but after moving to Robbinsville in third grade, decided to try something new. Bercaw joined Robbinsville Little League softball, “and it really just took off and I loved it.” Bercaw moved on to travel ball and only played softball at Pond Road in eighth grade before entering Notre Dame. At that point, she had to leave her friends and teammates. “I’ve grown up with the Robbinsville

team,” said Bercaw, who currently plays travel ball with Raven Allie Taylor. “I’ve always been in the same league with them in rec ball and I was on the Robbinsville Rampage as a kid. I’ve always known them, and they’re really good athletes.” She started in the outfield as a freshman and hit a modest .254. Schafer was an assistant that year, and immediately liked what he saw. “I was down in the weight room in the cages, and I saw this kid hitting and I said, ‘Wow this kid’s gonna be good,’” the coach said. “I knew right there we had something special as a freshman.” Her average spiked to .382 last year but the atbats dropped by 25 due to the wrist injury. “Getting hurt kind of affected my progress,” Bercaw said. “Just watching was awful. I just had faith that it would get better eventually. I worked as hard as I could in physical therapy to get back. It just made me appreciate playing even more.” And she can appreciate being back to playing classical piano as well, which is a hobby she does to relax. “It’s nice to be able to play, I just enjoy it,” she said.

Bercaw considers centerfield her best position, and she has been recruited by Rowan to play the outfield in two years. Her decision came without warning, as she was so impressive at one of the Profs hitting camps she immediately drew the staff’s attention. She returned for a second camp, and Rowan asked her to come on board. “I accepted it,” she said. “It just felt right.” For now, Bercaw is doing whatever she can to help the Irish make a strong tournament run after Robbinsville eliminated them from the Mercer County Tournament. Her versatility remains a key for ND. “Being able to use Emilia in the infield has helped us to become a much better team than without her there,” Schafer said. “If there’s somebody injured we go to Emilia. She’s that utility infielder everybody needs. She’s gonna be my leadoff next year unless something changes. We keep her in the nine hole now because she turns the lineup over constantly. I think in the beginning she snuck up on people, they didn’t expect it. Now she is getting harder pitches thrown at her but she’s coming through time and time again.”

‘In the beginning, she snuck up on people. Now she is getting harder pitches, but she’s coming through time and time again.’ –Notre Dame softball coach Marty Schafer on Emelia Bercaw

It has been a year of change for Tara Mastroianni, and it’s all been for the better. Since last spring, the Robbinsville High senior dropped some weight which led to a more confident person. During that time, she also ratcheted up her work ethic when it came to throwing the discus and shot, which not only made her more confident, but much better. It culminated on May 11, when Mastroianni won a Mercer County Championship meet gold medal in the discus with a personal best throw of 107 feet, 8 inches. It was the biggest win of her career heading into the NJSIAA Central Jersey Group II sectional meet on May 24-25. “I was shaking,” Mastroianni said prior to a practice for sectionals. “I turned to my coach (Andrew Patterson), he shook my hand and said, ‘Congratulations.’ I didn’t know what to do. I called my mom, and I was like, ‘Oh my God, I don’t know what I just did!’ and she was like, ‘I know what you did.’ And it was my birthday week, so it was a great present.” Head coach Greg Cole said, “That kind of summarizes her athletic career in high school. It’s something that she accomplished, and it kind of closes a book so she can move forward in college. It’s kind of that final chapter. She’s able to end it on a very good note, but we’ll see how long this chapter can run (in state meets).” Mastroianni also placed in the shot for the first time at MCTs with a sixth-place throw of 31-5. A week earlier she had a fifth-place toss of 32-11.5 at the Mercer Coaches Classic. She is still chasing her PR of 33-11.25 set last year. Once stronger at shot, Mastroianni has evolved into a better discus thrower. She had a fourth-place throw of 94-6 at the Coaches Classic and a third-place throw of 96-1 at the Mercer County Relays. That’s what confidence and hard work can do for a person. “Losing the weight really sparked it and helped me a lot,” Mastroianni said. “I guess I gained more muscle from going to the gym more, and it really helped after that with my throws. I definitely feel a lot more confident this year. When I was younger, I was a little fish in the pond. Now I’m like the big girl, I’m stepping in and I’m feeling more confidence.” According to Cole, Mastroianni is not an overnight success. It has been a long road that she was eager to travel. “This isn’t something that started in the spring, it started early on, it’s been something she’s been working on in all throwing events,” Cole said. “She’s just been strong with that and also as a leader. She’s someone that consistently really shows a team how to do it and leads by actions and what she does during meets. People are able to follow her and up their performance level as well.” Mastroianni’s career started when a soccer door closed and the track and

Senior Tara Mastroianni surprised herself with the personal-best throw that won her the 2019 county title in discus. (Photo by Rich Fisher.) field window opened. “I did gymnastics and soccer for a long time,” she said. “When I was in sixth grade, I didn’t make the soccer team so I tried out for track.” More accurately, she tried out for “field” as Mastroianni wanted nothing to do with the track. “I’m not a runner at all,” she said. “I give props to people who run because I struggle with it so much. My friend asked me to try out and she ran; and I said ‘I can’t run, I can’t run!” And then she was like, ‘Oh, well there’s throwing,’ and I got interested in that. I was always kind of a stronger person, so I did it and I liked it so much.” She started doing discus, shot and javelin, but put javelin in the same “can’t do” column as running. But she was outstanding in the other two, and earned Thrower of the Year at Pond Road Middle School. “I came into high school and I was throwing over 30 (in shot) as a freshman, and I kept going higher and higher so I liked it,” Mastroianni said. “Shot used to be my priority, but over the past two years something happened and disc is my priority. I don’t know how, but disc just became better. I came in here, shot was my thing, I enjoyed it and, I don’t know, it just switched.” After her junior season, Mastroianni realized she had to make some major strides if she wanted to fulfill her dream of competing in college. She won medals at the Hopewell-Steinert FreshmanSophomore meet but never placed in counties and did not advance out of the sectionals. Thus, she dedicated the summer, fall and winter to getting in shape and improving her technique. “I kind of went on my own and just

started training for better form,” she said. “I kind of focused on myself and took it more seriously this year, and I think it really helped a lot.” Mastroianni began practicing with her teammates over the summer; and if they weren’t there she put her newly acquired driver’s license to use by driving to the high school and working by herself in the circle. She also studied tapes of others, along with herself, to get a better idea of correct throwing. “It helped me improve my form so much,” she said. “Sometimes not everyone is able to see the little things, so when I set up my camera I just keep running my form back and forth.” And the results are? “Definitely my feet are an improvement,” Mastroianni said. “I started full spinning this year, which helped me get so much more into my throw. I was half spinning last year. So that helped.” Cole said Mastroianni didn’t brag about her extra work, but her improved form said it all. “It’s something we more see in her actions other than what she talks about,” the coach said. “I talked to her briefly about it, she has mentioned about how she’s been working on some of the little things. Making sure she doesn’t foul, making sure she’s holding the shot the right way. I know that’s something she

talks about in depth coach Patterson.” Heading into sectionals, Cole and Mastroianni both felt she had a shot to get into the Top 6 and advance to the All Groups State Meet for the first time. Mastroianni was also hoping to break the school record, which she is 10 feet shy of. “I always like to think the sky’s the limit,” Cole said. “I think as long as she’s working and it’s her main focus, she can grow and keep on growing. And I think she can do very well in college.” Mastroianni will take her skills and impressive 3.6 grade point average to Montclair State and major in exercise science. Based on the improvements she has made, Mastroianni thinks she may want help people improve their wellness and is pondering a career in sports conditioning. She will also be looking to keep rising in track, of course. “I met with Montclair a few times,” Mastroianni said. “The track team is amazing, the coach is amazing. The program is exactly what I wanted. So that’s why I had to step up my game a little bit. After I got everything together, I was like, ‘OK, I want to do this in college.’ I feel like I have everything down and I feel really confident in it.” And to think some people don’t like change.

‘I definitely feel a lot more confident this year.’ –RHS senior Tara Mastroianni

Nationally Recognized Trauma Care for More Than 20 Years Capital Health Reverified as Level II Trauma Center The Bristol-Myers Squibb Trauma Center at Capital Health Regional Medical Center (RMC) has been recertified as a Level II Trauma Center by the Committee on Trauma of the American College of Surgeons (ACS). This achievement is the eighth verification for Capital Health since the first in 1998. The Center, also designated as a Level II Trauma Center by the New Jersey Department of Health, is one of only 10 designated trauma centers in New Jersey and the regional referral center for injured patients in Mercer County and adjacent parts of Somerset, Hunterdon, Burlington, and Middlesex counties as well as nearby areas of Pennsylvania. “The ACS is the largest association of surgeons in the world and an important advocate for all surgical patients,” said DR. DOMINICK EBOLI, director of the Bristol-Myers Squibb Trauma Center at Capital Health Regional Medical Center. “After a successful review of our performance and resources by nationally recognized trauma experts, this recertification shows the residents of our community that when they need us most, Capital Health meets the highest standards for treating severely injured patients.”

The Full Spectrum of Care According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, injury is the third leading cause of death in the United States. Care provided in a trauma center decreases the chance of death following injury by 25 percent compared to care in general hospitals. In addition to providing the necessary resources for trauma care, ACS level II verification also means that centers like the BristolMyers Squibb Trauma Center address the needs of injured patients across the entire spectrum of care, providing patients at Capital Health Regional Medical Center with access to important injury prevention programs, prehospital care and transportation, acute hospital care, rehabilitation, and research. “Through programs and resources not available in most general hospitals—including 24hour immediate access to trauma surgeons and other specialists—we are able to provide comprehensive care that begins at the time of injury and continues through rehabilitation,” said DR. DENNIS QUINLAN, associate medical director of the Bristol-Myers Squibb Trauma Center. To learn more about the Bristol-Myers Squibb Trauma Center at Capital Health Regional Medical Center, visit capitalhealth.org/trauma.

UNDERSTANDING BRAIN TUMOR SYMPTOMS signs to guide you to the right plan for care Brain tumors, while relatively rare, do not discriminate, affecting men, women, and children across all age groups and ethnicities. And because the brain is the critical organ that controls all others, it’s important to recognize the signs that may suggest a brain tumor and discuss them with your health care team. “The many parts of the brain control different body functions, so symptoms will vary depending on tumor location, type, and size,” said DR. NAVID REDJAL, director of Neurosurgical Oncology at the Capital Health Center for Neuro-Oncology. “However, there are some common symptoms to watch for which, if ongoing, may indicate the presence of a brain tumor. Anyone experiencing one or more of them over an extended period of time should see their doctor to get an accurate diagnosis.”

COMMON BRAIN TUMOR SYMPTOMS INCLUDE: Headaches: A persistent, progressive pain that is different from a migraine, does not respond to over-the-counter pain medication (like aspirin or ibuprofen), gets worse when lying down, and may be accompanied by vomiting or changes in vision. Seizures: In some cases, a seizure may be the first indication that a person has a brain tumor. Focal Progressive Symptoms: Localized symptoms—such as hearing problems, difficulty walking or speaking, or feeling clumsy—can often help identify the location of the tumor. Mass Effect: Occurs when a brain tumor presses on surrounding normal tissue, causing nausea and vomiting, drowsiness, vision problems, headaches, and behavior changes. Sudden Personality Changes/Cognitive Changes/Memory Loss: A tumor may cause disruptions in normal brain function that lead to changes in a patient’s behavior and ability to reason, remember, and learn. “At the Center for Neuro-Oncology, our advanced technological resources and multidisciplinary approach to diagnosis and treatment are just as important as the compassionate and individualized care we provide,” said Dr. Redjal. “If a person experiences new symptoms or changes to existing ones, talking to your doctor is an important first step.” The Center for Neuro-Oncology, part of Capital Institute for Neurosciences and Capital Health Cancer Center, is a referral center for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer involving the brain and spine. The Center is housed in stateof-the-art facilities where patients have access to an experienced and caring team of physicians, nurses and staff who work closely with referring physicians to facilitate rapid and thorough evaluations and recommendations for patients and their families. In addition to providing advanced, neuro-oncologic and neuroscience care, the Center participates in clinical trials to help fight and find cures for cancer.

TAKE CHARGE of controllable factors to reduce your stroke risk On average, a stroke occurs every 40 seconds in the United States. Every four minutes, someone dies of stroke. These are sobering statistics from the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association, but there is some good news too. Approximately 80 percent of strokes are preventable, so it is important to understand stroke risk factors, particularly those factors that are in your control. There’s nothing you can do to change factors like your age, gender, race, family history, or previous incidences of stroke or heart attack, but if any of them increase your risk of stroke, they can be good motivation to learn about what you can do to address controllable risk factors.

FROM ThE SChOOLS

Perfecting that tough job called parenting By Kathie Foster Parenting is one tough job. Despite the advice we may have been fortunate enough to receive from our own parents, returning home with our child for the first time can be daunting. Recognizing the vast responsibility that comes with holding a brand new life in our hands can be rewarding beyond measure yet, at the same time, completely overwhelming. As many of us have learned, the old adage that there are no rulebooks or recipes for successfully raising kids is true. Some of us may be old enough to remember Dr. Spock’s iconic book enti-

tled Baby and Childcare. First published in 1946, the good doctor offered relief to many anxious parents in the form of common sense and practical advice on everything from toilet training to temper tantrums. My own mother, a devotee of Dr. Spock, embraced his sagely wisdom to help her navigate the challenges of children who would not sleep through the night and to address a whole host of misbehaviors (my brother’s, of course, not my own!). Other generations also searched for parenting answers in popular texts. The Mother’s Almanac, published in the mid-seventies, was written in a conversational style from one mom to another

April 24, Robbinsville Public Schools partnered with districts throughout Mercer County for an evening with Julie Lythcott-Haims. As you may know, Lythcott-Haims is the author of the New York Times best-seller How to Raise an Adult – Break Free of the Overparenting Trap and Prepare Your Kid for Success. Her conversation with parents was met with enthusiasm but also the recognition that children today are under more pressure to perform, more pressure to excel, more pressure to fit in and more pressure to “be perfect” than kids of generations past. Sadly, this type of artificially induced stress is exacting a mighty toll on our children. Lythcott-Haims challenges us to express our love by helping children appreciate limits and respect boundaries. This can mean saying no when saying yes would be easier. It can mean being consistent in our responses even when we are too busy, too stressed, or too tired. It can mean teaching our children about consequences by not delivering the homework, sports equipment, or lunch they left at home. Taken a step further, Lythcott-Haims shared research on three ways we, as parents, might be over-parenting our children and unwittingly causing psychological harm: 1. When we do for our kids what they can already do for themselves; 2. When we do for our kids what they can almost do for themselves; 3. When our parenting behavior is motivated by our own ego. If, like me, you are guilty of at least one of the examples noted above you are in good company. One of the great things about life is the older we get the greater our capacity to learn from our mistakes. It is never too late to course correct and tweak the things that may not working well or, in this case, may not serving our children well. If you consider that our job as parents is to teach our children, in just 18 short years, all they need to know to become functional, healthy, independent, well-adjusted adults, who can argue that parenting is not one of the world’s most challenging jobs? When it comes to our kids, there is nothing like a parent’s love—fierce and Insurance Counselor Insurance Counselor Insurance Counselor limitless. A parent’s love is far more than a warm and fuzzy feeling, rather it is a verb. An action word. And often action takes courage. Join me in considering how we 1260 Route South 1260 Route 33 South might incorporate the valuable lessons 1260 Route3333 South Lythcott-Haims discusses into our own Hamilton, Hamilton, NJ 08690 Hamilton,NJ NJ08690 08690 parenting philosophies.

Agent/jenniferwoloszyn Agent/jenniferwoloszyn Agent/jenniferwoloszyn Kathie Foster is superintendent of Robbinsville Schools. and, more recently, Heidi Murkoff’s best-selling What to Expect series begins when a parent is expecting and is followed by other books that apply to various stages of development. Despite these helpful resources, we often fall back on our own history and instinct when it comes to figuring out the best ways to raise our children. And although we are fortunate to have easy access to a wide range of professional opinions to help us tackle our most important role, none would dispute that first and foremost, children need love. So, what does parent love look like? In the animal kingdom, many species sacrifice sleep, nourishment, and safety to provide their offspring the best start to a long life. Weddell Seal moms begin to teach their pups at just two weeks old how to survive the icy waters of the Antarctica. Orangutan mothers spend the first eight years with their young apes as they focus on the importance of nest building. Fun fact, baby orangutans express emotions just like our children do. They cry when hungry, whimper when hurt, and smile with joy at their mothers. We humans know that when walking in the woods, getting between a mother bear and her cub could have disastrous consequences. In fact, many of us become “Mama Bears” as we feel the urge to fiercely protect our own children from danger, harm, or hurt. Others become “Tiger Parents” in our attempt to ensure our children will reach high levels of achievement and success. Parental love does not necessarily require us to morph into animal mode to sufficiently demonstrate our love. In fact, we can also express our love in how we say yes and no to our kids. On

MAYOR’S COLUMN

On tap: Robbinsville’s biggest month of recreation By daVe Fried Our biggest month of recreation is on tap in the coming days, highlighted by the Robbinsville Township Community Day Festival June 8 at Community Park. There will be food, live music all day provided by Robbinsville High Jazz Band, “Kindred Spirit” and our headliner, “The Suspects.” Community Day also features our acclaimed “Prize Alley,’’ activities and games for the kids, vendors, a host of nonprofit organizations to learn about and of course fireworks beginning at approximately 9 p.m. In addition, the 2nd Annual Joe Barker Volunteer Star Award will be presented to Dave Doran in recognition and appreciation for all he has done for the Robbinsville community. Barker served as recreation director for nearly seven years until he passed away on Feb. 11, 2018 after a valiant battle with colon cancer. Joe was a mainstay at the township’s athletic facilities and

Community Day was his “work baby.” We miss him every day. On Saturday, June 15, the C.A.R.E. Father’s Day Fishing Derby will take place at the Town Center Lake Gazebo. Registration is at 7 a.m., with fishing from 8-11 a.m. Prizes will be awarded in several age categories, along with the Grand Prize package for the angler sporting the most fish caught. Breakfast items will be sold by the RHS Marching Band. No license is required. *** Proud to have stood alongside Marci and Seymour Josephson at the Joint Senate/ Assembly Transportation Hearing May 16 at the Statehouse in Trenton. Needless to say, Seymour delivered another power testimony to life of his beloved daughter, Samantha, who was murdered March 29 in Columbia, South Carolina, allegedly by the driver of a car she thought to be her Uber.

state Assembly unanimously May 23 and has been sent to the Senate for a full vote. Believe it or not, legislation does exist that goes far beyond traditional politics. We hope this bill, which would mandate several safety measures for rideshare companies to follow, including a QR code to confirm each trip, also is unanimous in the Senate and is sent without delay to Gov. Murphy’s desk for his signature. *** On May 20, Robbinsville paid the invoice of $709,680.18 for the billing period of July 1, 2019 to Dec. 31, 2019 for use of Hamilton Township’s sewer utility. We hope that payment, confirmation of which, along with the bill from

Hamilton, can be viewed at robbinsville. net, puts to rest any suggestion that Robbinsville is in arrears to Hamilton for the shared use of its sewer. Additionally, Robbinsville has committed to pay for half of an independent rate study to determine how our two towns can move toward an amicable solution to our current billing disagreements. Hamilton and Robbinsville have had a joint sewer agreement since 1976. *** My thoughts and deepest condolences, along with those of my administration and staff, are extended to the Brien family of Robbinsville during this deeply tragic and sorrowful time. Dave Fried is the Mayor of Robbinsville.
