New AD is familiar face

Covington hired to replace retiring Bud Kowal as Ewing Public Schools athletic director By JuStin Feil

It’s been a while since Ernie Covington was a student. Now he’s back to learning again in his job as the new athletic director and health/ physical education supervisor at Ewing High School, which began on July 1. Covington’s hiring is part of a turnover among some of the highest profile athletic leaders in the school district, which has replaced its high school football, boys’ and girls’ basket-

ball coaches in the past eight months, as well as longtime Ewing athletic director Bud Kowal. Covington said the departures are a bit of a mixed bag. “The bad of it is that you don’t have somebody that you just say, ‘All right, what you do, keep doing it.’ The good thing is that you can build new programs together and especially being a new AD, you can get the coaches input.” He said that he tries to speak to the new coaches on a daily basis and find out their thoughts. “It’s just to make them a part of it because we’re all on one team, we’re all representing Ewing school district.” Covington comes back to Ewing after working in the Bordentown Regional School

District since 2007. He rose in the ranks there from a health and physical education teacher and baseball coach to assistant football coach, assistant principal in their middle school, and ultimately, assistant principal of athletics for Bordentown Regional High School. “We were very impressed with Mr. Covington’s candidacy,” Ewing Superintendent Michael Nitti said. “He is an experienced administrator with expansive knowledge in athletics and progressive health and physical education. We think he will be an excellent addition to our team.” Covington is not a complete stranger to Ewing and definitely knows the area. A graduate of The College of New Jersey, he See COVINGTON, Page 5

Can this go in recycling? Most residents don’t know the answer, and that’s causing soaring costs By MiCHele alPerin Since 1987, New Jersey state law has mandated recycling, but Mercer County residents can’t seem to figure out what is recyclable and what isn’t. The result has been increasingly contaminated containers and huge increases in recycling costs. The issue is statewide, and local towns are no exception. According to Chris Rupp, director of public works for Robbins-

ville Township, the town’s recycling costs “have doubled from $125,000 per year to $250,000 per year.” Dan Napoleon, director of environmental programs at the Mercer County Improvement Authority, says that the cost per household per year now averages around $29, which generates large bills in populous towns. The major change on the recycling scene, says Frank Fiumefreddo of Solterra Recycling Solutions, is that “the quality of the material we were shipping overseas had gotten to a point that it was unacceptable.” As a result, in 2018, China lowered the minimum allowable percentage of contamination in recycling, throwing the

entire recycling industry into crisis. Solterra is the contracted hauler for curbside recycling in Robbinsville and towns served by the Mercer County Improvement Authority, including Ewing. “They went from maybe five percent, and the new standard was they would not accept any material with greater than onehalf of one percent contamination,” Napoleon says. “We saw a 40 percent increase in collection costs as a result.” Because the biggest contributors to contamination of the recycling stream are plastic bags and pizza boxes, Robbinsville and the Mercer County Improvement AuthorSee RECYCLE, Page 6

Insurance companies do not always voluntarily pay what is owed. Therefore, an injured worker needs to file a formal Claim Petition and should seek the services of an experienced Certified Workers’ Compensation attorney. Issues to consider when hiring an attorney for a workers’ compensation case: Is the attorney a Certified Workers’ Compensation attorney? The Supreme Court of New Jersey has established a certification program designed to assist the consumer in making an informed selection of counsel. In New Jersey there are only 121 attorneys that have demonstrated sufficient levels of experience, education, and knowledge in the practice of workers’ compensation law to receive this certification. Pellettieri Rabstein & Altman has attorneys that have been certified by the New Jersey Board on Attorney Certification by the New Jersey Supreme Court. What is the attorney’s reputation in the community and among his/her peers? An injured worker wants to know that his/ her claim is being handled by an attorney who is well respected by the community, as well as by other workers’ compensation attorneys and the judge who will preside over the case. Attorneys in the Workers’ Compensation department at PR&A have consistently been designated as Best Lawyers®. 2Ewing Obser ver | September 2019

regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence because their lists are based on peer-review evaluation.1

Less than 2% of the almost 98,000 lawyers in the State of New Jersey receive this designation and there are only 19 recipients in the field of Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants (i.e. representing workers). For years, Pellettieri Rabstein & Altman has been ranked and continues to be ranked in the 2019 U.S. News - Best Lawyers® "Best Law Firms" list. Law firms on the "Best Law Firms" list are recognized for professional excellence with persistently impressive ratings from clients and peers.2 A client may engage a workers’ compensation attorney at Pellettieri Rabstein & Altman that holds an AV Preeminent Ratings from MartindaleHubbell. Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ recognize lawyers for their strong legal ability and high ethical standards.3 Only an elite group of approximately 10 percent of all attorneys holds an AV Preeminent Rating. The Chairman of the Workers’ Compensation department, Gary Adams, is respected locally, regionally, and nationally as a leading attorney in this specialized field. He has been included in the lists of Best Lawyers®, Super Lawyers® and he is rated AV by Martindale-Hubbell, the highest attorney rating given by that organization. He is also the immediate past chair of the New Jersey State Bar Association Workers’ Compensation Section. He is a Senior Vice President of the New Jersey Advisory Council on Safety and Health (COSH).

A client needs to be reassured that his claim is being handled by the attorney with the training, experience, skills and reputation in the area of workers’ compensation law. At Pellettieri, Rabstein and Altman, a client will meet directly with the attorney at initial consultation and in advance of any court proceedings. The attorney will return phone calls, answer questions, and answer e-mails. While paralegals assist the attorney in handling the case, every case is overseen by an attorney. What will my lawyer charge for handling my workers’ compensation case? In New Jersey, the fees in a workers’ compensation case are set by the Workers’ Compensation Judge. The Judge may award a contingent attorney fee of up to 20% of the amount recovered on a client’s claim, and that is the amount that is typically awarded. At Pellettieri, Rabstein, and Altman there is no upfront fee for consulting with a workers’ compensation attorney regarding a work injury. All fees are a contingent fee set by the Judge based on obtaining a positive result. Fees are the same for any workers’ compensation attorney you hire, therefore you want to hire the most capable attorney – one who can maximize your recovery. ** No aspect of this advertisement has been approved by the Supreme Court of New Jersey. 1 www.bestlawyers.com/methodology 2 https://bestlawfirms.usnews.com/methodology.aspx 3 www.martindale.com/ratings-and-reviews

RECYCLE continued from Page 1 ity are focusing on them in campaigns to reeducate consumers on the how-to’s of recycling. Plastic bags and any items inside them go directly into the trash at the processing plant. “It could be 100 percent clean recycling, but it is not opened at the facility,” Napoleon says. Plastic bags that make their way to the sorting line can jam up the sorting machinery and must be removed by hand, which increases costs. Pizza boxes are rejected because any oil that has seeped into the cardboard will remain part of the paper fibers when they get to the pulping process. Misconceptions abound, and they often come with justifications. “Some residents think they are doing the right thing by putting the recycling in a bag to contain it from blowing around,” says Napoleon. Or they may not realize that recycled No. 1 and No. 2 plastic needs to be cleaned before being tossed in the bin. Or perhaps people get confused because plastic bags are recyclable through collection programs in area supermarkets. Some of the mistakes are fairly extreme, but perhaps people are extrapolating from allowed items like glass jars, metal cans, and No. 1 and No. 2 plastics when they put items like plastic toys, broken window glass, coat hangers, bowling balls and frying pans in their recycling cans. “A lot of people think because it has some kind of plastic in it or has a plastic handle, it is recycla-

ble,” says Rupp. So residents should take heed of important advice from recycling professionals: “When in doubt, throw it out.” Fiumefreddo is convinced that education works and cites a recent New Jersey success story. “Marlboro Township decided it was not allowing any residents to put plastic bags at the curb, and the quality of the material got tremendously better,” Fiumefreddo says. The absence of plastic bags in Marlboro come with an additional benefit: Solterra haulers can see exactly what is in a recycling container, enabling them to reject a bucket that is contaminated much more easily. “If we don’t keep educating and letting residents know what can and can’t go in there, it is not going to get better,” says Fiumefreddo. Robbinsville’s educational outreach on correct recycling has been multifaceted and far-reaching: they have included the recycling changes for plastic bags with everyone’s tax bill; contacted homeowners association representatives; advertised in myriad venues—on the Robbinsville website, at National Night Out, and at the Robbinsville Farmers Market; and put fliers at the Senior Center and Robbinsville Mobile Homes Park. “We’ve gotten it out to everybody, letting them know the changes, and we have been fielding phone calls every day since,” Rupp says. On Sept. 1, Robbinsville will begin to enforce the ban on plastic bags. They

have designed tags for Solterrra to leave on rejected containers indicating why they have not been emptied. People will then have to wait for the next scheduled recycling day. “We’re hoping that everyone decides to work with us,” Rupp says. “Once your stuff is not picked up for a couple of weeks and you have no place to dump it, you’ll learn to put it out the correct way.” The Mercer County Improvement Authority is planning a reeducation campaign that will also culminate in increased enforcement. It will include a one-page piece to residents and will use print and social media and radio. The campaign will continue over several months so that residents have time to start changing their recycling behavior. “Our ultimate goal is to say, after maybe Jan. 1, ‘Your bucket won’t be collected if you have plastic bags and pizza boxes.’” The road to learning new recycling behaviors can be rocky, and townships can expect lots of phone calls during the transition. Rupp refers callers to videos on the Robbinsville website that illustrate how plastic bags get tangled up in the machinery, and closed bags get thrown directly in the trash. “It’s not getting recycled so you’re defeating the purpose,” he says. Although Rupp says he understands people’s frustration and aversion to change, he adds, “If we can clean up our recycling, maybe we can reduce spending and still help the environment … We don’t want to raise taxes to do recycling;

Mercer County Improvement Authority hopes to reduce costs by educating residents on what can actually be recycled. (Graphic by Stacey Micallef.) now it is almost as expensive as regular trash.” The Mercer County Improvement Authority does have an enforcement team, but assessing responsibility if a bucket is missed is difficult. It may not be clear whether the hauler was at fault, or they were legitimately skipping

a recycling container that contained, say, fluorescent bulbs. And multiple trips by haulers to the same address are expensive. Fiumefreddo would like to see towns provide their own enforcers who accompany the truck and inspect the cans. “As long as the towns stand behind us, it will

be a big success for recycling,” he says. Unlike most towns in Mercer County, Robbinsville no longer does its recycling through the Mercer County Improvement Authority. When the prior director of public works, Dino Colarocco, made that decision, the motivation was to give Robbinsville officials more control, enabling them to call Solterra directly to determine why stops had been missed. But Rupp says, “I think that in the long run it might be cheaper to go with a group.” He plans to speak to Napoleon about their options for working with MCIA, but he thinks they are full for the upcoming year. With China limiting drastically the amount of contamination, Fiumefreddo says, “facilities had to put in more pickers or more technology to clean up the product more, and all that does is drive up the cost for processing.” Furthermore, the decreasing amounts of recycled goods that China is accepting has required diverting them to domestic mills, which pay less than the international ones. Two years ago, Fiumefreddo says, recycling cost Solterra $55 to $60 a ton to process and today costs are $85 or $90. “Ultimately, we want to reduce the cost of recycling to our towns, so we have to start somewhere,” Napoleon says. “If we can reduce the amount of contamination, ultimately we can reverse the increase in costs. This didn’t happen overnight, so the correction is not going to happen overnight.”

Replacing it would be a mixed-use complex with a small amount of commercial space and 59 apartments—19 more than a plan for the property that was heard by the planning board last year and ultimately withdrawn. In late June, Patel said he was temporarily closing the restaurant for a few weeks for renovations. Two weeks later he changed course, issuing a statement on Facebook that he was shutting down for good and focusing on redeveloping the tract. The planning board hearing is set for Thursday, Sept. 5 at 7 p.m. at the Ewing municipal building. According to a notice mailed by the developer to residents adjacent to the property, the plan calls for the “removal of the existing restaurant facility” and replacing it with two new buildings.

A photo of the Freddie’s Tavern circa 1949. The restaurant has closed its doors after 86 years in business and the planning board will be hearing a plan on Thursday, Sept. 5, that calls for the building to be destroyed and replaced with a mixed-use complex of mostly residential units. The first is a commercial/residential building with 3,300 square feet of first-floor commercial space. Above that would be 24 two-bedroom units and 14 one-bedroom units. The second all-residential building would be 10 one-bedroom units, 10 two-

parking spaces, parking stall size and loading space. The application provides for 147 parking spaces, which includes indoor and outdoor stalls. Also being requested is a waiver from the requirement to perform an environmental impact statement. Last year, the Ewing Planning Board heard an application by Buildquick to subdivide the property into two lots. One lot would have contained the restaurant, and the other called for the construction of a 4.5-story mixed-use building with 3,550 square feet of commercial space on the ground floor and 40 dwelling units above. The application was ultimately withdrawn by the developer after the board cited concerns regarding a lack of adequate parking and other issues. A large number of residents attended the board hearings in opposition to the project. Patel said in his Facebook announcement that the spate of development in the area, including Ewing Town Center on Parkway Avenue, spurred him to make changes. The closing came amid reports from members of the Ewing community that business has slowed significantly since Patel took over. Patel purchased the restaurant from owner Freddie Urbano in December 2015 with the support of a $1.37 million Small Business Administration loan. The Urbano family opened the restaurant in 1933.

Ewing Dental Associates: changing the way people think about dental care The teams at Pennington Dental Associates and Ewing Dental Associates will be the first to admit that no one thinks of going to the dentist as something fun: But a big part of their mission is to change how people think of dental care in general. “We try to make the experience of dentistry as uplifting as possible. There is so much that we can do to help you feel good and healthy,” notes Dr. Paul Goodman at the Pennington office. Adds Lisa Yosevitz, who works largely out of the practice’s Ewing office, “It is important to us that our patients are educated, so they can be in control of their treatments and really know what’s going on. We believe in being very proactive.” Goodman joined Pennington Dental Associates back in 2004, a well-established dental practice in the area which first opened by his father and another dental partner back in 1941 (Paul’s brother, Jeffrey, came on board in 2009). “My father had a longstanding practice in Pennington. I was excited about coming on board and what we could do going forward. We started adding specialties, doing implants, root canals, veneers, bondings: We loved that our patients could get so much dental care in one place, so that they could maximize their time here.” The practice is also big on keeping up with the latest technologies, such as 3-D radiology machines, which can take CT scans, and digital X-rays, which offer significantly less radiation than standard X-rays. With a total of eight dentists, Pennington Dental Associates offers an array of services that cover everything from routine cleanings and checkups for all family members to periodontal work (gum disease), extractions, the latest in implants and even sleep apnea problems. “Sleep apnea is a huge issue now, that can affect any one at any age, with a majority of the demographic presenting in men between the ages of 50 and 70,” explains Goodman. “We have a dentist who has been trained in detecting sleep apnea issues, so we are able to screen for that right now. We have an oral appliance that patients can purchase to help with just that issue. But we are also happy to collaborate with someone’s general dentist or

physician once we detect that might be the problem, to see what is the best course of action.” Implant dentistry is another huge focus of the practice. “There can come a point in a person’s life when their body starts to outlive their teeth. And there are so many things you can do with implant dentistry now that we can offer,” enthuses Goodman. Pennington Dental Associates can offer you virtually any level of dentistry work, or even work in tandem with your own general dentist. Finally, don’t let not having dental insurance dissuade you. Pennington Dental Associates offers an in-house membership plan for just those situations. As Dr. Goodman explains, “people stop coming to see their dentists if they lose health insurance, which is a big mistake. We offer an in-house membership plan for cleanings and x-rays, which is a great way to keep up with your dental maintenance and also something you can afford.” Adds Dr. Yosevitz, “It is so refreshing to be part of an office that really treats patients like family as soon as they walk in the door. We want to educate our patients and be proactive in their care, but also be as warm and as welcoming as possible. We believe we really can make going to the dentist almost enjoyable!” For more information, visit penningtondentalcenter.com or ewingdental.com.

New beginning for Red Star Pizza On behalf of the Bua family, I would like to announce my retirement from Red Star Pizza, and introduce you to its newest owner, Erick Tejada Guadron. I would like to take a moment to thank all of our wonderful customers for supporting our family-run business for over 23 years. As I now spend time with my family and grandchildren, I will always cherish all of the friendships built, and the successful years of owning a local business. It was because of your support that Red Star Pizza flourished in Ewing Township. My fondest memories are of giving back to the township that has given us so much, by supporting our firefighters, EMTs and police officers, who are the lifeblood of this town. It is my proud honor to now pass the Bua family recipes on to Erick and his family. Erick will be joined by his wife Gabriella, children Dania and Erick Andre, and brother Rudy, in continuing the traditions of Red Star Pizza.

On behalf of the entire Bua family, it was a pleasure having my family serve yours. I wish Erick and his team prosperity, and success, in this next chapter of Red Star Pizza.

His extended family were long-time residents of Mercer County, and Erick quickly fell in love with the area and decided that he wanted to raise his family in Ewing Township.

Erick and his family have maintained the authentic Italian recipes your family has come to know and love, while adding his own specialties such as, Beef and Chicken Gyros, Specialty Pizzas including the Red Star Deluxe

Adopt-a-Survivor Program Begins at Ewing High School

The Ewing Public Schools Schools

2019 2005

Teacher of the Year Recipients are Honored

Welcome Back to School!

Nearly sixty years since Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps, the now elderly survivors of the Holocaust are turning to a new generation to preserve their testimony about their wartime experiences for future generations. Holocaust survivors are steadily dwindling in number. Many have made it their mission to educate the world that anti-Semitism and racism easily lead to murder, and to speak about the horrors they and their families suffered. With the passing of time, it has become urgent to find a new generation to continue the survivors’ mission and tell their stories after the survivors can no longer do so. On April 12, the Adopt-a-Survivor (AAS) program was introduced to the Trenton area at Ewing High School. Six Holocaust survivors were adopted by twelve Ewing High sophomores. The adopted survivors—Moshe Gimlan, Vera Goodkin, Marion Lewin, Ruth Lubitz, Charles Rojer and Jack Zaifman— were originally from Germany, Czechoslovakia, As the Poland and2019-20 Belgium. school year begins, there has beenThe a lot of the aEHS Counseling AAS change programinpairs survivor with oneDeor partment.

One of the reasons is because of my high School Counselor and baseball coach, who taught me, the way you do anything is the GoodNews will resume way you do everything. They made me realize in withit the order to succeed mustSeptember come from within. They issue both motivated meof tothe be aObserver better student, person, and athlete. I realized how important educators are and the impact they can make. Secondly, as a freshman in college, it was a very difficult adjustment for me.

School, one of my goals for the 2019-20 school year is to meet with as many families and stakeholders as possible to gain a better understanding of the community in order to appropriately meet the needs of our students. Another goal is to develop new and strengthen existing partnerships with companies and institutions of higher learning for the betterment of our entire school community. I am excited to join Ewing Public Schools and look forward to an amazing school year!

Meet EHS Guidance Counselor/SAC Paige Haugland: Why did you want to become a guidance counselor? Following graduation, I worked in the field of mental health and substance use treatment in a variety of settings from partial-hospitalization programs to outpatient school-based programs. While treating such issues, I began to see not only the benefit, but the necessity for early intervention. From there, I decided to change my specialization to school counseling in hopes to help teens in a crucial and confusing stage of life and pursue my passion in this work as well. What are your goals for the upcoming school year? My first goal of the year is to foster positive relationships with students and their families, as well as, staff and the community as a whole. I want our students to know that my door is always open to provide guidance whether it be related to social/ emotional issues, academic concerns and goals, career development, etc. I believe that everyone deserves happiness, peace, and success in their lives, and by providing the proper tools, I hope that I may assist our students in achieving this!

EHS Guidance Counselor Meet Stephanie Lippincott: Why did you want to become a guidance counselor? I decided that I wanted to become a School Counselor when I was in high school because of the impact that my counselor had on me. High school is an important time in the life of a student and I decided that I wanted to attempt to have the same influence that she had on me, on as many students as possible. What are your goals for the upcoming school year? As a new counselor to Ewing High School this year, my goal is to jump in and experience as much as Ewing High has to offer! Coming from Antheil Elementary School, I am already familiar with the Ewing community, so I hope to make this year one of meeting and learning about as many high school students and community members as possible while discovering how I can make the most positive impact in the Ewing High Community.

Getting Ready to ROAR at Lore Leo the Lion has long been the mascot of Lore Elementary School. Leo can be seen throughout Lore School, and he is often in attendance at community events. In fact, the word leo means lion in Latin. Throughout history, the lion has been seen as a symbol of strength and courage, and what is most unique about lions is the fact that they live in a group, or pride. They live within their group, helping each other to survive, and a lion’s roar is what marks its territory, what makes it “home”. Much like lions, the students of Lore School are proud to live as a group each day, helping each other to succeed and excel, roaring to mark our territory and make our strong, positive, powerful voices heard in the community around us. This year, the students of Lore School will continue to honor the history of Leo the Lion and

celebrate his powerful character traits through our ROAR initiative. The acronym ROAR stands for Respect, Ownership, Achievement, Responsibility, the four expectations we will celebrate and honor throughout the school year.

It was all smiles for Parkway students attending the summer program at FMS!

What do you like best about Ewing High School? What I like best about Ewing High is the sports. I love how competitive we are as a school and how we are the team to beat. I appreciate how the coaches of all teams are dedicated to see improvement in all their players. Who is your favorite teacher or coach? My favorite coach is my softball coach, Daniel Bernoski, because this man is committed to his job. He puts in countless hours with the softball team and he does extensive fundraising to take the team to Florida every year for spring training without any complaints. Coach B does things not because he has to, but because he wants to and I think that's what sets him apart from many other coaches. Coach B is just a person who honestly cares for the well-being of others and is willing to do anything for his players. In which activities do you participate?

resentative), National Honor Society, Princeton University Preparatory Program (PUPP), Peer Leadership What is your favorite memory of high school? My favorite memory is freshman year basketball games. What has impacted your life in a positive way? Sports have impacted my life in a positive way. I've taken away important life skills that I will always use, like the importance of teamwork. How do you define success? I define success by a person accomplishing all their goals they have set for themselves and then setting more goals to get even further then where they are. If you are living comfortably and you're genuinely happy, I think you have mastered being successful. What are your plans after you graduate? I plan on attending college and going down the pre-med tract with the long term goal of being an Anesthesiologist; majoring in psychology or health sciences. What is your favorite quote? “What’s meant to be will always find a way” –Trisha Yearwood

Ewing Schools Collaborated with The Arc, Mercer for Special Education Career Experience The Ewing Public Schools’ Structured Learning Community (SLC) Program provides employment, recreational, social, and independent skills for students ages 16-21 in selected special education programs. SLC seeks to offer the highest quality of life learning skills possible in order to achieve maximum levels of personal independence for our students. Components of transition-related services offer the framework for developing a coordinated set of activities which provides students 16-21 (in selected programs) with quality employment and vocational opportunities. The SLC models current research that supports best practices for the successful transition from school to adult life in all areas. In addition, New Jersey Administrative Code requires Community Based Instruction (CBI) and Structured Learning Experiences (SLE) to be designed as rigorous activities integrated into the curriculum and created for students to demonstrate and apply a high level of academic attainment, develop career goals, and develop personal/social skills. This summer, the Ewing Public Schools SLC paired up with The Arc, Mercer, a premier

agency providing community-based services for people with special needs and developmental disabilities, opportunities to explore jobs, such as: Automotive Detailing, Clerical/Office Skills, Culinary/Food Service, Fulfillment, and Custodial. Ms. Danielle Hickey and Ms. Lauren Wood, teachers at EHS shared, “Students enjoy the hands on experience in a real life setting. The Arc, Mercer provides commercial facilities where students are able to practice daily living and job skills in different career occupation clusters that EHS students would not have access to otherwise. Students are eager to participate in the ‘out-of-classroom’ learning experiences."

PROJECT LINUS Fall Blanket Drive Saturday Sept 21ST • 10-1 Salem I was surrendered because my family could not keep me anymore. I’m a sweet beautiful boy, a little shy at first - I want to be loved and I will be your best friend. I have a magical and warm personality which will blossom the longer I get to know you.

Forrest Forest was picked up as a stray on Parkway Avenue in Ewing. He was brought in by Animal Control. Forest is a very sweet and friendly young dog.

We will be collecting new handmade blankets for children in need of a hug, love, warmth, or comfort. Also collecting yarn, fleece and monetary donations.

JAMES P. McMANIMON, BUSINESS ADMINISTRATOR

I am always humbled when people express to me their enjoyment of this column, either in person or via email. I too enjoy learning about the history of my adopted hometown, and I’m glad that I can help to bring that history to others via this column. But I like to remind everyone that there is a far greater source for Ewing’s history. That source, of course, is the Ewing Township Historic Preservation Society, on behalf of which I write these columns. One of the more important responsibilities of a historical society is that of keeper and preserver of significant historical documents and artifacts pertaining to local history. Ewing’s historical society is no exception. Its mission statement declares its dedication to preserving a record of Ewing’s history, through the collection of documents and artifacts. Housed in the Benjamin Temple House on Federal City Road, the Society’s collection includes photographs, maps, documents, newspapers, textiles and artifacts—and an impressive library of books relating to the area. And the source of these artifacts and documents? Occasionally, items are found at auctions or online. But much of the collection has been donated by thoughtful people—sometimes Ewing residents, sometimes not—who are aware that the items that they possess may be of greater interest and benefit to others, now and in the future. It could be a local citizen who inquires as to whether the Society would be interested in a box of old photos of the township, or some newspaper clippings related to Ewing people or

events. It might be the son/daughter or grandson/daughter of a Ewing citizen who has found documents relating to the relative’s past business, religious, political, civic or educational activities. It might be a book about the Trenton area, or a painting or illustration of a local site. While the space at the Temple House is not infinite, the Society is always interested in finds of local historic interest, and can determine if there is space to accommodate such finds. The Society is currently revitalizing the Temple House by creating new exhibits for its rooms. In the oldest section of the house (c 1750), information pertaining to the early families living here during colonial and Revolution-era times will be displayed. Other rooms will be devoted to telling stories about the later settlement of Ewing, up to about 1850. ETHPS requests your help. For all of you Ewing folk out there with family roots that go way back, or family members with a penchant for collecting historical materials, the society needs your assistance. If you have papers, diaries, family Bibles, journals, materials, or other documentation or artifacts pertaining to early Ewing families or events, especially prior to 1800 but up to 1850 or so, please consider contacting the ETHPS, either by email (info@ethps.org) or phone (609-883-2455). Materials can be donated or loaned to the ETHPS, or briefly left to be scanned and returned. The families of interest include Temple, Hart, Cox, Green, Howell, Hutchinson, Hendrickson, Scudder, Lanning, Tindall, Titus, Guild, Moore and Atchley. Finds such as these are priceless. They enable researchers to more accurately understand and interpret their area of study. They allow writers to share more accurate accounts of local history, and genealogists to dig even deeper into their family histories. And they allow the Society to better interpret life in the place we Ewing residents (whether born here or settled here) call home. Although none of us were here in the 18th century, understanding aspects of life in Ewing at that time can also help us to appreciate the evolution to today’s Ewing, and to envision its future. So, on behalf of the ETHPS, thank you for considering the sharing of your family history with the community of Ewing. Also, the ETHPS will be holding its annual Flea Market and Plant Sale on Saturday, September 7, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Temple House, 27 Federal City Road. Vendors welcome: $10 for 10-ft. space. ethps.org And if you’ve never visited the House, stop by their Open House Tour sometime, held the first Sunday of every month, from 2 to 4 p.m.

Greenwood House saved our lives By ilene BlaCK

If you are my Facebook friend, then I am sure you’ve seen the accolades that I’m always giving to Greenwood House. Greenwood House, or GH as I call it, is where my 93-year-old dad resides. He’s been there since December 2016 after he suffered a major stroke. After an extended hospital stay, Dad went to St. Lawrence for rehab. The timing was such that we were able to transfer him directly from St. Lawrence to Greenwood House seamlessly, thanks to Trish, the external case manager, who then and now goes way above and beyond for the families and the residents. Living in a long-term care facility was my dad’s worst nightmare all his adult life. Having to put him in GH was my worst nightmare. I had visions of him living out his days slumped in a wheelchair parked in a hallway or in front of a TV. Nothing could be farther than the reality at GH. From the first day, the staff engaged Dad. Dad is a quiet man, shy, with a good sense of humor, but my mom was the live wire in that relationship. He relied on her for their social life, since the woman never met a stranger in her life. The physical therapy department got Dad moving at once. They worked him out, made him keep going when he didn’t want to, and generally treated him like their own family member. That was the start of Dad’s rehab. Occupational therapy and speech therapy were the same way. They treated Dad as if he was their grandfather. They were sensitive to him and his limits, explained why they were doing what they were doing, and explained the need for it. The social workers got him talking. He opened up to them in a way I have never seen him open up to anyone. They talked to him about his fears, his anxiety, his loneliness since Mom passed away. I am sure they discussed me, too, but I am not sure I want to know what was said. The nursing staff. Ah, the nursing

staff. The CNAs, RNs, LPNs. They are the heartbeat of GH. I literally don’t have the words to adequately describe how wonderful they all are, every last one of them. They cheer with me when Dad is doing well, cry with me when he’s having a bad period, hug me when I need it most, and generally just care. They just care. I’m not even going to try and name them all because I’ll forget one or two, and they all deserve a mention. And a seat in heaven. The CNAs treat Dad with such dignity. They have a difficult job, yet they perform it with such gentleness and genuine affection that Dad feels a lot less helpless and dependent. That’s very important to Dad’s mental health. Sandra and Evelyn are two of the CNAs that have taken care of Dad since his arrival at GH. And Roz, when Dad was on a different wing for a short time. Simply put, they are treasures. Absolute treasures. The activities staff do a phenomenal job of engaging the residents. I was there one morning when they were doing a coffee hour/discussion group and I was stunned at how animated some of the residents were during this activity. Then they played a sort of volleyball game, with disco music playing, and every last resident who played had a smile on their face. Even Dad, who can zone out easily. Meanwhile the staff were dancing, singing, and directing the game. I can tell you honestly, the activities staff are amazing. Energetic, caring, fun, and attuned to what the residents will respond to best. It’s so doggone impressive. The kitchen staff, housekeeping, maintenance, administration, all combine to give Dad a home that is clean, comfortable, safe and secure. I can sleep at night knowing that dad is well taken care of. I miss the Dad I grew up with, but GH has helped me appreciate the Dad he is now. So to all of our GH family, I thank you from the bottom of my heart. You have saved Dad’s life, and you have saved mine.
